Rite Aid buildings to come down in next two monthsBERLIN -- The remaining block of downtown

buildings purchased by Rite Aid Corporation back in 1998 will be demolished within the next couple of months.

“The entire property will be razed,” said Rite Aid spokeswoman Ashley Flower.

Berlin Fire Chief Randall Trull said he notifi ed Rite Aid by certifi ed mail in September that the four buildings presented a safety and fi re hazard.

The windows in one building had to be boarded up earlier this fall after vandals broke all the glass.

Trull said the fi re department used the ladder truck to take aerial photographs of the roofs which appear ready to cave in. The fi re chief said the construction of the buildings is such that if the roofs cave in this winter, the walls will come down as well and debris will fall into the street.

“They can’t leave those buildings in that condition. They’re in bad shape. They’re defi nitely an eyesore, they’re defi nitely dangerous, and they defi nitely have to be removed, “ Trull said.

Three of the buildings have been vacant for years. J.C. Penney leased space in one building until last summer when it closed its Berlin store.

The city was prepared to take Rite Aid to court under state statute 155-B to force action, but Trull said Rite Aid responded promptly and agreed to demolish the buildings within the time frame man-dated by 155B. Rite Aid had 21 days to submit a plan which the fi re chief received on Oct. 17.

“We evaluated our options and decided it is in the best interests of the company and the community to raze the buildings, “ Flower said.

She said Rite Aid is currently soliciting bids from contractors to do the demolition.

Trull said Rite Aid has 60 days from Oct. 17 to see BUILDINGS page 15

SAYWHAT...It’s no fun to pro-test on an empty

stomach.”—Michael Bloomberg

OAKLAND, Calif. (NY Times) — After weeks of cautiously accepting the teeming round-the-clock pro-tests spawned by Occupy Wall Street, several cities have come to the end of their patience and others appear to be not far behind.

In Oakland, in a scene reminiscent of the anti-war protests of the 1960s, the police fi lled downtown streets with tear gas late Tuesday to stop throngs of protesters from re-entering a City Hall plaza that had been cleared of their encampment earlier in the day.

Those protests, which resulted in more than 100 arrests and at least one life-threatening injury, had appeared ready to ignite again on Wednesday night as sup-porters of the Occupy move-ment promised to retake the square, where the encamp-ment site was fenced off.

After about an hour of speeches, the crowd removed the fences around the site. The number of protesters swelled to about 3,000 people, but the demon-stration remained peaceful. Leaders led a series of call-and-response chants. “Now the whole world is watching Oakland,” was one phrase that was repeated as pass-ing cars honked in approval. The police had gone, com-pared with a heavy presence the night before.

(NY Times) — Economic growth in the United States picked up in the third quarter, the Commerce Department said Thursday, in an encouraging sign that the recovery, while still painfully slow, has not stalled.

Total output grew at an estimated annual rate of 2.5 percent from July to September, still modest but almost double the 1.3 percent rate in the second quarter, the department reported.

The pace, however, was not brisk enough

to recover the ground lost in the economic bust, lower unemployment or even sub-stantially dispel fears of a second recession. Still, the report offered a small helping of reassurance.

“It ain’t brilliant, but at least it’s heading in the right direction,” said Ian Shepherd-son, the chief United States economist for High Frequency Economics, a data analy-sis fi rm. “I want to see 4 percent, but given that people were talking about a new reces-sion, I’ll take 2.5 or 3, thanks very much.”

The consensus forecast of economists shows continued growth at about a 2 per-cent rate for the rest of this year and all of 2012. That would be an improvement over the fi rst half of this year, but a strong recovery would require a rate closer to 4 percent. In the 25 years prior to the recession, the United States economy grew at about 3.25 percent a year, though demographic changes have led to lower expectations for future growth even in a healthy economy.

Economic growth in U.S. speeds up

ANTAKYA, Turkey (NY Times) — Once one of Syria’s closest allies, Turkey is hosting an armed opposition group waging an insur-gency against the government of President Bashar al-Assad, pro-viding shelter to the commander and dozens of members of the group, the Free Syrian Army, and allowing them to orchestrate attacks across the border from inside a camp guarded by the Turkish military.

The support for the insurgents

comes amid a broader Turkish campaign to undermine Mr. Assad’s government. Turkey is expected to impose sanctions soon on Syria, and it has deepened its support for an umbrella political opposition group known as the Syrian National Council, which announced its for-mation in Istanbul. But its harbor-ing of leaders in the Free Syrian Army, a militia composed of defec-tors from the Syrian armed forces, may be its most striking challenge so far to Damascus.

Slapping at Syria, Turkey shelters anti-Assad fi ghters

FRANKFURT (NY Times) — European banks may win back a measure of confi dence from a plan that would compel them to arm themselves for a plunge in the value of Greek debt.

The mandatory recapitalization was one of the main achievements of European leaders’ summit meeting that ran into the early hours Thursday in Brussels. But it will not be enough to erase doubts about banks’ creditworthi-ness and restore their access to international money mar-kets, analysts said.

The big problem is that Italy, with its dysfunctional poli-tics and nearly 2 trillion euro, or around $2.8 trillion, in out-standing debt, has supplanted Greece as the biggest threat to European banks and the biggest source of investor anxiety. If Italy were to have trouble servicing its debt, no amount of fresh capital could protect the European banking system.

Banks reassured by Euro deal, but Italy remains a worry

FRANCONIA NOTCH — Morning rain changed to wet snow for some on Thursday, giving many in New Hamp-shire their fi rst snowfall of the season before Halloween.

The snowfall was visible on the tree line in Franconia Notch, though most had melted before hitting the ground.

Meteorologist Kevin Skarupa said most areas would see 1 to 3 inches, except for north of the northern White Mountains, which would see little to no snow, and Manchester to the coast, which would see a coating to an inch.

Many people visiting the Notch were expecting to catch the tail-end of the foliage season. Instead, they were treated to the season’s fi rst taste of winter.

“I’m not a winter or snow person,” said one visitor from North Carolina. “I moved from Missouri to get away

from snow, so it’s not my favorite, but the fi rst one is always so exciting.”

Another visitor was excited that ski season was approaching.

The skies were expected to clear for Friday, with temperatures in the 40s.

A storm developing off the coast of North Carolina looks like it will just miss New Hampshire on Saturday. If that track holds, sunny skies are expected for the weekend.

According to Skarupa, since 1870, there have been 12 years where it snowed more than .1 inches in Con-cord in October. He said those seasons actually fi nished with lower-than-average snowfall.

First Snowfall In Concord Over Past Five Years: Nov. 27, 2010; Oct. 16, 2009; Nov. 22, 2008; Nov. 20, 2007; Dec. 4, 2006.

Enlightening the WorldIthaca Bound

The very sight of her has thrilled, even emotionally overwhelmed, countless mil-lions, as they catch fi rst sight of her standing tall, torch held high, a tablet clasped close to her breast, enduring whatever storms may swirl around her crown-topped head. Today, the 28th of October, marks the 125th anni-versary of her offi cial dedication in 1886.

She, to we Americans, is known as the Statue of Liberty. To the French, whose gift to us she was, and especially to the man who fashioned her, Frederick Auguste Batholdi (1834-1904), she is called “Liberty Enlight-ening the World,” her offi cial title. That title reveals the true intent of what the statue was meant to symbolize. Of course, Batholdi and the French meant French enlighten-ment. (How all nations do bask in their own nationalistic thinking!) But enlightenment is enlightenment, and that is never a bad thing. Lady Liberty was not intended to be a welcoming beacon for the poor and the oppressed of the world.

But things have a way of taking on a life of their own, a life often very different from what was originally intended. It didn’t take long for the Lady with the Torch to take on the symbol of hope for the millions of people who came seeking a new life in a new land. The poem that had been written to help raise funds for the building of the statue’s base and to give meaning to the statue itself, and then had been all but forgotten, playing no part in the dedication ceremony, was re-discovered, and gave to the statue the mean-ing that it now holds for most of us.

The poem was called “The New Colossus,” and it was written by Emma Lazarus (1849-1887). A Jewish poetess who, in many ways, was ahead of her time, she saw the statue in a somewhat different light than most of her time. And that vision saw expression in every line of her poem. Especiallyso in its last few lines. Do we all recall them?

“Give me your tired, your poor,/ your hud-dled masses yearning to breathe fee,/

The wretched refuse of your teeming shore,/ Send these, the homeless, tempest-

tossed to me./ I lift my lamp beside the golden door.”

Talk about enlightenment! Ms. Lazarus herself embodied both of Lady Liberty’s symbolisms, and spent her all too short life working for their realization.

Israel Isadore Baline’s family was among those who fl ed the pogroms of the Russian Czar in the early Twentieth Century. In time, young Israel would Americanize his name to Irving Berlin (1888-1989) and become one of his adopted country’s most beloved song writers. (“God Bless America,” “I’m Dream-ing of a White Christmas,” “Easter Parade,” and “Alexander’s Ragtime Band.”) Irving Berlin’s life would be a symbol of what Emma Lazarus’ poem was trying to say.

In 1949, he was asked to write the score for a new musical being written by Robert E. Sherwood. It was to be called “Miss Lib-erty,” and its plot was to revolve around the search for the woman whose picture was the inspiration for the face of the statue and the building of the statue itself. Berlin readily agreed.

Although the show fell far short of its expectations, a couple of Berlin’s songs stood out. One of these was the show’s fi nale – “Give Me Your Tired, Your Poor.” In the song, Irving Berlin found the inspiration that most of the rest of his score lacked. Perhaps he recalled sailing by the statue as young boy years earlier.

A personal note: I was in high school, sing-ing in the choir, when the show opened in 1949. A choral arrangement of “Give Me Your Tired, Your Poor” was soon made avail-able, and I well remember the emotions and the expectations it brought as our choir sang it.)

As with most symbols in this world, “Lib-erty Enlightening the World” has yet to achieve its full realization. But on this, its 125th anniversary, it still stands patiently in New York Harbor.

My thanks to the Berlin Recreation Dept.To the editor:I would like everyone to

know how wonderful the Berlin Recreation Depart-ment is. On Sunday I took my little buddy to Commu-nity Park for some exercise and to swing. The swing is his favorite at the park. Unfortunately some incon-siderate person or persons felt the need to destroy the swing and broke it. My little buddy went to the park again on Monday and was heartbroken to see his favorite swing out of commission. On Tuesday morning I called the Berlin Recreation Department

and spoke to Terry Letarte about the problem at the park and she said she would have someone look into it as soon they could. By Tuesday afternoon on my way home I noticed that they had already repaired the swing and another one that had been broken. It made me feel good to see this kind of commitment from the city of Berlin. I would like to personally thank everyone at the Berlin Recreation Department for all that you do. It does not go unnoticed.

Thank you very much.Thomas Sutton Sr.Berlin

Citizens should not suffer because of greedTo the editor:Representative Gene

Green, Democrat-Texas, has all us retirees on social secu-rity feeling like we should celebrate over being given a 3.6 percent raise starting this January. Let me say this about that.

We weren’t given a raise the last two years. Instead, we were told that the cost of living hadn’t gone up so we weren’t entitled to a raise. In that time Congress gave themselves plenty of raises because of the cost of living

see GREED page 5

Whenever I write about Occupy Wall Street, some readers ask me if the protesters really are half-naked Communists aiming to bring down the American economic system when they’re not doing drugs or having sex in public.

The answer is no. That alarmist view of the movement is a credit to the (prurient) imagina-tion of its critics, and voyeurs of Occupy Wall Street will be disappointed. More important, while alarmists seem to think that the move-ment is a “mob” trying to overthrow capitalism, one can make a case that, on the contrary, it highlights the need to restore basic capitalist principles like accountability.

To put it another way, this is a chance to save capitalism from crony capitalists.

I’m as passionate a believer in capitalism as anyone. My Krzysztofowicz cousins (who didn’t shorten the family name) lived in Poland, and

their experience with Communism taught me that the way to raise living standards is capi-talism.

But, in recent years, some fi nanciers have chosen to live in a government-backed feather-bed. Their platform seems to be socialism for tycoons and capitalism for the rest of us. They’re not evil at all. But when the system allows you more than your fair share, it’s human to grab. That’s what explains featherbedding by both unions and tycoons, and both are impediments to a well-functioning market economy.

When I lived in Asia and covered the fi nan-cial crisis there in the late 1990s, American government offi cials spoke scathingly about “crony capitalism” in the region. As Lawrence Summers, then a deputy Treasury secretary, put it in a speech in August 1998: “In Asia, the

going up and they weren’t 3.6 per-cent. In the meantime the price of gas, groceries, and everything else has gone through the roof. Congress and the President are supposed to look after consumers in the United States. They are supposed to be on guard against price gouging. Price gouging by the oil companies has been going on now for over six years and has resulted in oil companies amassing a fortune while

the country has gone into an economic tailspin. The spiraling cost of gas and oil has caused economic hardship on this country and nothing has been done about it. Just another job poorly done by our president and Congress.

This nation’s citizens should not suffer as they do because of greed. This nation should be better that that.

Ray Losier Berlin

GREED from page 4

problems related to ‘crony capital-ism’ are at the heart of this crisis, and that is why structural reforms must be a major part” of the International Monetary Fund’s solution.

The American critique of the Asian crisis was correct. The countries involved were nominally capitalist but needed major reforms to create accountability and competitive mar-kets.

Something similar is true today of the United States.

So I’d like to invite the fi nance min-isters of Thailand, South Korea and Indonesia — whom I and other Ameri-cans deemed emblems of crony capi-talism in the 1990s — to stand up and denounce American crony capitalism today.

Capitalism is so successful an eco-nomic system partly because of an internal discipline that allows for loss and even bankruptcy. It’s the possibility of failure that creates the opportunity for triumph. Yet many of America’s major banks are too big to fail, so they can privatize profi ts while socializing risk.

The upshot is that fi nancial insti-tutions boost leverage in search of supersize profi ts and bonuses. Banks pretend that risk is eliminated because it’s securitized. Rating agencies accept money to issue an imprimatur that turns out to be meaningless. The system teeters, and then the taxpayer rushes in to bail bankers out. Where’s the accountability?

It’s not just rabble-rousers at Occupy Wall Street who are seeking to put America’s capitalists on a more capitalist footing.

“Structural change is necessary,” Paul Volcker, the former chairman of the Federal Reserve, said in an impor-tant speech last month that discussed many of these themes. He called for more curbs on big banks, possibly including trimming their size, and he

warned that otherwise we’re on a path of “increasingly frequent, complex and dangerous fi nancial breakdowns.”

Likewise, Mohamed El-Erian, another pillar of the fi nancial world who is the chief executive of Pimco, one of the world’s largest money man-agers, is sympathetic to aspects of the Occupy movement. He told me that the economic system needs to move toward “inclusive capitalism” and embrace broad-based job creation while curbing excessive inequality.

“You cannot be a good house in a rapidly deteriorating neighborhood,” he told me. “The credibility and the fair functioning of the neighborhood matter a great deal. Without that, the integrity of the capitalist system will weaken further.”

Lawrence Katz, a Harvard econo-mist, adds that some inequality is necessary to create incentives in a capitalist economy but that “too much inequality can harm the effi cient operation of the economy.” In particu-lar, he says, excessive inequality can have two perverse consequences: fi rst, the very wealthy lobby for favors, con-tracts and bailouts that distort mar-kets; and, second, growing inequality undermines the ability of the poorest to invest in their own education.

“These factors mean that high inequality can generate further high inequality and eventually poor eco-nomic growth,” Professor Katz said.

Does that ring a bell?So, yes, we face a threat to our

capitalist system. But it’s not coming from half-naked anarchists man-ning the barricades at Occupy Wall Street protests. Rather, it comes from pinstriped apologists for a fi nancial system that glides along without enough of the discipline of failure and that produces soaring inequal-ity, socialist bank bailouts and unac-countable executives.

It’s time to take the crony out of capitalism, right here at home.

November 12th, 2011 9:00 a.m. – Preview at 7:30 a.m.

Arts in Early Learning Conference is November 19 in BerlinBERLIN — “The World Around Me” is the sub-

ject of a lively, participatory Arts in Early Learning conference on Saturday, November 19, from 9 a.m. to noon at White Mountains Community College, Berlin.

The conference, for which there is no charge, is for all those who work and play with young chil-dren — teachers, librarians, pre-school and child-care administrators and care providers, teaching artists, parents and grandparents.

“A critical part of young children’s development is experiencing the excitement of discovering and exploring the various environments that surround them,” notes lead instructor and longtime educator and children’s musician Deborah Stuart. “We want to offer a variety of ways for children to learn more about the environments they already know, and to introduce them to the environments they haven’t yet experienced — for rural children, fi nding out about cities; for those children who haven’t had many outdoor encounters, learning about the natu-ral world, and for all of us, a chance to celebrate the forests and mountains of New Hampshire. In this conference we look at how to use the arts to make these encounters memorable and meaningful. The links between arts learning and books, storytelling and language are absolutely central.”

Through creative movement, music, puppetry, creative drama and visual arts, participants will be offered a wealth of lessons and activities they can use with children in classrooms, childcare settings, community sites and at home. Particular attention will be given to meeting the needs of children with developmental and learning differences.

Activities will include the creation of murals of four different environments — city, village, rural and forests/mountains, which will be used as back-drops for the various performance art components — dance, music and drama. Participants will also create tableaux, try bubble painting and wet on wet painting, and make butterfl y puppets that can be worn on wrists or attached to rods.

There is no charge for the Berlin conference. Pro-fessional development credits are offered. Particu-lar attention will be given to meeting the needs of

children with developmental and learning differ-ences.

The conference is presented by the Arts Alli-ance of Northern New Hampshire and VSA New Hampshire as part of their ongoing Arts in Early Learning collaboration, funded in part by VSA International, an affi liate of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, DC, in partnership with White Mountains Community College, with support from the White Mountains Community College Student Senate.

Stuart, who was the editor and contribut-ing writer for “Start with the Arts” and is active around the country as a speaker and trainer, will be joined by Will Cabell, a professional puppeteer,

actor, musician and educator, by dancer and move-ment educator Kelly Doremus Stuart and by the-ater artist Richard Moses.

“We do this conference each year on a different theme,” says Arts Alliance director Frumie Selchen, “and I’m still amazed at how much fun the partici-pants have, and how inspired they are by the day to use the arts in their own teaching or care-providing settings.”

Morning snacks will be provided. Participants are asked to bring a lunch.

Preregistration for the workshop is required; register online at www.aannh.org. For additional information, contact the Arts Alliance at 323-7302, or email [email protected].

Operation Christmas Child underwayMILAN -- Would you like to provide a destitute

child, in an undeveloped country, with a joyous Christmas this year? Operation Christmas child, a project of Samaritan’s Purse, was started in 1993 to allow individuals to do just that, by packing a shoe box with simple items like a wash cloth, soap, tooth-brush and toothpaste, cuddly toy or surprised how much can be packed in a shoebox). The box and top are Christmas wrapped separately and secured with a large rubber band. A sticker is attached showing the box is for a girl or boy and a choice of three age ranges. They also ask for a donation of $7 in each box, to help pay for the costs of shipping these boxes around the world but this is not mandatory.

Operation Christmas child, the world’s largest Christmas project, is calling on local kids, families, churches, businesses, schools and community groups to fi ll shoe boxes full of gifts for children overseas who are suffering from diseases, famine, war, terror-ism and natural disasters.

The Milan Community United Methodist Church has been participating in this effort for 15 years and is also acting as relay center, where these shoe boxes can be delivered. We pack them in large cartons, and deliver them to a “collection center”, which in turn

sens them by tractor trailers to a huge processing center in Boone, North Carolina. There they are checked to insure there are no liquids or soft candy or war related items, etc. Then Christian material (in 55 different languages) is included in all boxes, which are then fl own to over 100 countries world wide. They are then carried by every means possible, from helicopters and trucks to elephants and canoes, to points of distribution at orphanages, schools, local village churches, etc. Starting over 8 million last year. But even 8 million is only a tiny percentage of the hundreds of millions of destitute children in the world. For most of these children, the shoe box will be the fi rst gift they have ever received and the fi rst indication that they are loved by anyone.

So this year think about giving a small gift that will probably supply more joy and at the same time do more long lasting good than any other gift you will give. Also, think about any organization that might want to do this as a group project of selfl ess giving. Call, Roger Jones at 752-3201 for the necessary materials and details. Boxes will be received at the Milan Methodist Church from 4-6 p.m. the afternoon from Nov. 14, to 19, or by special arrangement.

CCFH hires new family practice provider

Dr. Sandra Benckendorf and CCFH CEO Adele Woods.

BERLIN -- Coos County Family Health Ser-vices has hired a new family practice provider this summer, who will be working from the Page Hill Medical Offi ce. Dr Sandra Benckendorf was introduced to the public at the opening of National Health Center Week at the Pleasant Street Clinic in Berlin Thursday, August 11, 2011.

Dr. Benckendorf is a Family Practice specialist with 31 years’ experience at major health centers at Peoria and Champaign,Ill., and is moving to Berlin from her practice in Morton, Ill. Prior to that, she served at the Order of St. Francis Medical Group, a comprehensive, integrated network of health care facilities, services, physicians and employees in Illi-nois and Michigan.

Dr. Benckendorf has co-authored and published articles on Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disor-ders in the American Academy of Family Physicians Continuing Education Self-Assessment course and the effi cacy of child restraint auto seats in the Illi-nois Medical Journal, and has attained added cer-tifi cations in Geriatrics. She also developed a new protocol for breast cancer radiation therapy. She was named a fellow of the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) in 1991, and has been a Clinical Assistant Professor of Family and Commu-nity Medicine at University of Illinois Peoria School of Medicine from 1985 to the present.

In addition to her credentials, Dr. Benckendorf has been involved with community service. Most recently, she has been a presenter for “Tar Wars,” a tobacco-free educational program for kids from the AAFP. She has also served on the Tazewell County Board of Health, been a volunteer physician and overnight hostess for the Interfaith Hospital-ity Network, taught Sunday school for 15 years in Morton,Ill., taught aerobics in Hopedale,Ill., and served as a Special Olympics volunteer Physician at Pekin, Ill.

Dr. Benckendorf has moved into a new house in

Berlin with her husband, David, who will be teach-ing at the White Mountains Community College this fall. They have three grown children, and enjoy hiking, bicycling and kayaking, and plan to learn to cross-country ski. Sandy noted that she has a var-sity letter in gymnastics from the University of Illi-

nois, and was on the fi rst women’s gymnastics team at the university. Staying active and fi t is a top pri-ority for both David and Sandy.

Upon visiting the Berlin area, Dr. Benckendorf said that “the only thing more beautiful than the surroundings are the people.”

Care and Maintenance Tips Keep Your Car Running in Top-Notch Con-dition

We’ve compiled our best expert advice, surprising tricks, and car care tips to prolong the life of your auto-mobile!

1. Be patient during the break-in period

You’ve bought your dream car and now you want to make it last at long as possible in top condition. Here are some things to remember as you pull it out of the dealer’s lot:

* During the break-in period, typi-cally the fi rst 1,000 miles (1,600 km), keep your speed under 55 mph (88 kpm) or to the speed recommended by your car’s manufacturer.

* Avoid heavy loads on the drive train, such as towing trailers, and

loading the roof rack or trunk with heavy construction materials.

* Do not allow your new car to idle for long periods — this is good advice for the life of your car, but especially during breakin. The oil pressure gen-erated by doing so may not be send-ing oil to every part of your engine.

* Use only light to medium accel-eration, keeping the engine rpms below 3,000 for the fi rst few hours of driving.

2. Drive with care everydayBeing car considerate shouldn’t

stop after the break-in. Drive with care every day and your car will reward you with longer intervals without repair.

* Do not race your car’s engine during start-up.This is a quick way to add years of wear to your engine,

74 Tips To Extend the Life of Your Carespecially if it’s cold outside.

* Accelerate slowly when you begin your drive.The most wear to the engine and drive train occurs in the fi rst ten to twenty minutes of opera-tion.

* Warming the engine by letting it idle in the driveway is not a smart idea.The engine doesn’t operate at its peak temperature, resulting in incomplete fuel combustion, soot deposits on cylinder walls, oil con-tamination, and ultimately damaged components.

* Put less strain on your engine and automatic transmission by shift-ing to neutral at red lights. Other-wise, the engine is still working to push the car even while it’s stopped.

* Avoid driving at high speeds and accelerating quickly, especially when it’s very hot or very cold outside. Such driving behavior will result in more frequent repairs.

* Extend the life of your tires with careful driving. Observe posted speed limits. Avoid fast starts, stops, and turns. Avoid potholes and objects on the road. Don’t run over curbs or hit the tire against the curb when park-ing. And, of course, don’t burn rubber.

* When turning your steering wheel, don’t hold it in an extreme right or left position for more than a few seconds. Doing so can damage the power-steering pump.

* Consolidate your short driving trips. Most of the wear and tear — as well as the pollution your car gener-ates — takes place in the fi rst few minutes of driving. Doing several errands at once, during low traf-fi c hours if possible, will keep your engine happier longer.

3. Buy gas at reputable service sta-tions

Ask whether the gas you buy is fi ltered at the pump and if the sta-tion has a policy about changing the pump fi lters regularly. If you get a song and dance, fi nd another gas sta-tion. Some stations don’t have pump fi lters, making you more vulnerable to dirty gasoline. Other stations may not mix alcohol and fuel properly — or worse, water down their product. Find a station you trust and stick to it.

4. Don’t fi ll up if you see the tankerIf you happen to see a gasoline

tanker fi lling the tanks at your local gas station, come back another day or go to a different station. As the station’s underground tanks are being fi lled, the turbulence can stir up sediment. Sediment in your gas can clog fuel fi lters and fuel injectors, causing poor performance and possi-bly necessitating repairs.

5. Go easy when you’re stuckWhen stuck in mud or snow, don’t

make the problem worse by damag-ing an expensive component. Gently rocking in an attempt to free the car is fi ne. But if it looks as though you’re really stuck, don’t keep at it. Throwing your car from forward to

reverse repeatedly, as well as spin-ning tires at high speeds, can gener-ate lots of heat and spell trouble for transmissions, clutches, and differen-tials. It may be cheaper in the long run to call the tow truck rather than risk big repair bills down the road. It’s a good idea to carry a traction aid in the trunk, such as sand, gravel, or cat litter.

6. Lighten up your key chainDoes your car key share a chain

with a dozen or more other keys? That’s a pretty heavy load hang-ing off the car key when it’s in the ignition.The weight, combined with bouncing while you drive, can wear out the tumblers inside the igni-tion and eventually lead to ignition switch failure.To add years of service to your ignition switch, purchase a lightweight key chain that allows you to separate your ignition key from the others. Drive with only the ignition key in your ignition. If your ignition key “sticks” when you try to turn on the car, it’s a warning that your ignition switch is about to fail. Replace it before you get stranded.

7. Choose a good car insurerSometimes, no matter how careful

you are, disaster inevitably strikes — typically in the form of an acci-dent. Make sure that your car will be repaired to the best possible stan-dard by fi nding an insurer that will pay for parts from the original man-ufacturer and guarantee the repairs it authorizes.

8. Keep an auto logKeep a pad and pencil in the glove

our gas fi ll-ups and mileage. If you notice that your gas mileage wors-ens, mention it to your service man. It may be an early warning sign that something is wrong with your car.

9. Preserve your car during long-term storage

If you are not going to use your car for more than a month, store it prop-erly to prevent unnecessary damage and repairs upon your return.

* Fill the gas tank to help prevent condensation from accumulating in the gas tank. Add a fuel stabilizer and drive the car around a bit to dis-tribute the additive to engine parts.

* Wash and wax the car thor-oughly to protect the finish.

* Place a vapor barrier on your garage floor. A 4-mil polyethylene drop cloth will do.

* Disengage the parking brake to help avoid brake corrosion.

* Put the car on jack stands to take the weight of the vehicle off the wheels and tires.

* Disconnect and remove the bat-tery to keep it from draining. Place the battery on a trickletype char-ger. Or periodically drain the bat-tery, using a small light bulb, and then recharge it with a low-volt charger.

* Plug the tailpipe with a rag to prevent moist air from infiltrating into it.

Ride Safe on your Snowmobile: Safety tips from Fish and GameOperating a snowmobile can be very rewarding,

giving you the chance to see and experience many areas of the state that often aren’t accessible during our cold winters, but don’t become a statistic! The New Hampshire Fish and Game Department urges all snow machine riders to review safety precau-tions and ride responsibly.

Following are some key snowmobile safety remind-ers:

* Most important, be prepared for extreme con-ditions. Cold temperatures can be dangerous, so wear clothing that is appropriate for your winter activities.

* Know your abilities and understand the capa-bilities of your snowmobile. Every operator and every machine have different capabilities. Identify these levels and stay below them, and you are virtu-ally guaranteed of having a safe and enjoyable ride.

* Remember trail conditions are forever chang-ing, so make sure that you operate at a speed that is reasonable for the existing conditions. For example, at night or when operating in other low-visibility conditions, reduce your speed so that you can iden-tify and avoid sudden hazards on the trail or lake. Always be aware of the conditions of the trail or frozen body of water when operating a snowmobile.

* Don’t Drink and Ride. Never operate a snow-mobile after drinking alcohol. New Hampshire has strict laws prohibiting operating any type of recre-ational vehicle while under the infl uence of alcohol or drugs. If you take the chance, you will lose your privileges to operate any type of recreational vehicle or motor vehicle and pay substantial fi nes. The Fish and Game Department and the New Hampshire Snowmobile Association continue to promote zero tolerance while operating a snowmobile.

* Be especially careful on winter weekends that draw large crowds outdoors, such as the Annual Meredith Rotary Club Fishing Derby in February, which brings thousands of anglers out onto New Hampshire’s lakes.

* Always be careful to test ice safety, even freez-ing temperatures have occurred. Many factors affect how ice freezes, so ice thickness will not be same

throughout a lake. Always check the thickness and condition of the ice before going out and while you are heading to your secret ice-fi shing spot. Avoid inlets and outlets and other areas of the lake where there is current, such as springs or natural forma-tions. The ice in these areas will be thinner and not as strong. Avoid objects embedded in the ice; these warm as they attract sunlight, weakening the ice.

* Skimming is illegal! The dangerous practice of operating snowmobiles on open water or “skimming” is illegal in New Hampshire.

“Snowmobile safety is all about personal respon-sibilty,” says Capt. John Wimsatt, coordinator of Fish and Game’s Off-Highway Recreational Vehicle (OHRV) Program. “Accidents are usually caused by people driving carelessly, too fast, beyond their skill level, or under the infl uence of alcohol. Combine one or more of those factors with iffy ice and trail condi-tions, and things can go very wrong.”

So be smart -- use caution and common sense, and you’ll have a memorable and safe winter adventure on your snow machine.

Fall car careKeep your eye peeled for deals on these car care tips.

The TiresWinter isn’t a good time to have bald tires. If they’re

completely worn out or don’t have a lot of tread left, it’s time to replace them. If they look good, have your tires rotated to extend their life. If you have to replace your tires, replace all four because your tires are only as good as the worst one.

Coolant/Antifreeze Ideally, your radiator should be fl ushed and refi lled

with fresh coolant once per year but most of us don’t do that. How long has it been since you’ve fl ushed your radia-tor? You might want to get that done with your next oil change.

Windshield Wipers If they aren’t doing a good job with rain, they’re defi -

nitely not going to do well with sleet, snow, salt, and dirt. An all-purpose wiper will normally do the job but for those living in regions with an extra helping of winter, buy a higher priced winter wiper.

Also don’t forget your washer fl uid. The cheap, summer mixture will freeze just when you need it most so buy the higher quality washer fl uid. Even better, purchase the winter mix that is guaran-teed not to freeze.

EngineDoes your engine sound strange? Does it sound like some-

thing has taken up residence in your engine? If it’s bad in the summer it’s going to get worse in the winter and that’s not the time to break down. Get it checked out now. Also make sure to change all of the fi lters and make sure your oil is new.

FuelFor those in a place where winter is quite the formidable

foe, pour a bottle of fuel deicer in the tank one per month to keep moisture from freezing in your fuel line. If you have ever had to pay to repair a frozen fuel line you know that the small expense of a de-icing agent now can save you a lot of money later.

Bottom LineThe problem with maintenance is that we pay money and

what we get back is the same thing that we had before. Our car isn’t any more luxurious with a new air fi lter but we’re stuck paying the bill. Stomp around and be mad for a minute and then head out and get all of these car care tips taken care of.

Just a little recap of this summers motorcycle adventures. It all started last spring in Daytona during bike week. Street bikes and Dirt bikes and warm weather, brought out for some interesting fun. A couple of trips to Rossmeyers to look at the new Harley products. Studying many motorcycles, for ideas to help our customers.Dozens of vendor displaying awesome stuff. Well our customers came out, after the roads in our area progressed from snowmobile trails to dirt tracks to dry clear somewhat smoother roads. One of the problems we came across this year was the fact that some customers would let “bug guts” dry on the fork legs,and ruin fork seals. Keep this area clean. For all of you who were patient during our busy times, thank you! I can’t thank enough the guy’s who help me. We survived Bike Week, Blessing of the bikes, and then our AVCF Poker run. With the help of our local bikers, the Cancer fund was

able to raise $4000.00 to distribute locally. Some thing else we found out this year was a few cus-tomers adding long ornamental valve caps to their wheels. WRONG, the caps hit your brake caliper and snap the valve stems.Instant fl at tire. Well once again, I found out you have to respect motorcycles. labor day week end, while racing, I crashed. Five ribs,one punctured lung, six days at CMMC. But once again I was blessed with a wife and friends who came the rescue, and kept the shop going. Well a frost is on the grass this morn, and that means it’s time to pickle our bikes. Just a reminder to “ dose up” your bike with stabil or startron, hook up the “battery tender” and spray the crap out of your chrome with WD-40 to keep from rusting. Go back home and get ready to watch Speed vision,it might be a long winter.

hanks to great bunch of friends and customers, Ray

Early Wednesday morning, the crew of Nelson Communications, Inc. of Center Conway, was at work, doing last minute cleaning up of the road before Pike Industries’ crew started laying the top layer of asphalt, signalling the coming fi nish of the road’s $1.5 million reconstruction, which began in late spring. Completion comes in the nick of time: snow and cold was predicted for the following day. Under those conditions, the asphalt fi nal layer would have had to have been postponed until spring. In the foreground, Bryce Nelson, of Conway, attempts to stay ahead of the falling leaves with his leaf blower. In the background, Chris Moore, of N. Conway; Dave Caplette, of Conway; and Andy Hannon, of N. Conway, check the road edges in advance of the asphalt laying machines—a necessity in view of the fact that earlier in the week, a heavy truck on a private job had driven over the edge of the road underlayer, which required repair before a perfect fi nal layer could be laid. Nelson site supervisor is William Jones, of Madison, just out of sight in this photo. (GAIL SCOTT PHOTO)

demolish the buildings. The company is required to submit a hazardous materials abatement plan to outline how it will handle any hazardous mate-rials that may be in the buildings. Trull said he knows there is mold in the buildings and said he expects there will be some hazardous materials given the age of the buildings.

Trull said Rite Aid has been cooperative and he does not anticipate any problems getting the com-pany to move forward with the demolition.

“They seem to really, really be oriented into helping us get this taken care of,” he said.

Flower said once the buildings are razed, the property will be up for sale.

Mayor Paul Grenier said the cost of demolish-ing the buildings has been a deterrent to efforts to market that section of the downtown. He said the empty lots will be attractive to developers.

“There are a number of parties interested in developing these properties,” he said.

City Planner Pamela Lafl amme said she will be glad to see the buildings come down. She agreed with Grenier that having a clean piece of property will make it easier to attract developers.

“It will be good to take down the blighted build-ings in that section of the city,” she said.

Rite Aid purchased a block of seven buildings

on Main and Pleasant Streets for just over $1.6 million back in 1998. The buildings were the J.C. Penney building, the former Morin Shoe/Inner Glimpse, College Apartment building, Joilette Snowshoe, the former Berlin IGA, and two apart-ment buildings.

The company received conditional planning board approval to build a new one story drug store with a drive-up window and on-site parking for 45 vehicles. But before construction got underway, Rite-Aid ran into fi scal problems and the project was put on hold. Eventually Rite Aid purchased its current building on Pleasant Street.

The city has tried over the years to spark inter-est in the property which has been on the market for some time. In 2004, the city received a grant to conduct a charrette that looked at redevelop-ing the downtown, including the Rite Aid block. Two year later, city offi cials tried unsuccessfully to interest a private developer in tearing down the buildings and constructing a building to lease to the state to house the Berlin District Court and Health and Human Services offi ces.

Rite Aid has already taken down two buildings that were blighted and the former Joilette Snow-shoe Club building collapsed in 2009.

The four buildings left are 201 Main St., 193-9 Main St., 234 Pleasant St., and 181-187 Main St

We are looking for participants interested in entering in the parade in the form of fl oats, walk-ers, entertainers, ATV’s, and musicians. Please con-tact the Berlin Main Street Program offi ce to get a “Parade Entry Form” at 752-6246 or e-mail us at [email protected].

It’s the tradition of kicking off the most wonder-ful time of the year by joining the community in this glorious celebration on Main Street and we are hoping that we will get a wonderful response as we have in the past. The time and dedication that our fl oat builders and participants put into this event make it a wonderful evening for all to enjoy!

Sorry, there is only one Santa Claus allowed and he is fl ying in fi rst class from the North Pole, so no substitutions, please.

The award for the best fl oat will be $250 cash.

HOROSCOPE By Holiday Mathis

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You wouldn’t mind hearing about how bril-liant you are, and yet, strangely, those around you are not mentioning it today. Here’s your astrologer, picking up the slack: You are brilliant! TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Choose your teachers carefully. Kindness and intelligence go hand in hand. Further-more, anyone who is supposedly wise but doesn’t know how to love is a fraud. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). As you expand emotionally and physically, note that the very nature of stretching is that it goes beyond the usual range of motion. That said, it doesn’t have to actually hurt to do you some good. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ve been known to keep lists of important things, and yet lately you’ve fallen out of the habit. It’s true that you can remember quite a lot; however, you’ll feel much freer if you commit the items to paper instead. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The outside world is cacophony. You have to close the doors to get some peace. Also, some people in your life are quite noisy, though you may not notice this until they leave. You’ll experience fi rst-hand why silence is golden. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You get the impression that the authority fi gures don’t know what’s going on, at least not completely. You have a better view of the day-to-day realities at the ground level, and there is opportunity in this position. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The solution to today’s problems will be a synthesis of information from various people. Instead of asking “who” is right, you ask “what” is right. And you realize that there is not one person who holds all of the correct answers.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There’s a reason why most organiza-tions appoint one person to be the leader and not an entire group of people. Committees can be more trou-ble than they are worth. You’ll see an illustration of this today. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You realize that you don’t have to own things in order to get good use out of them. You’ll do everything you need to do using what is borrowed, rented or available to the public. How conve-nient! CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You have a knack for turning a neces-sity into an object of loveliness. The total satisfaction of seeing the manifes-tation of your idea will be well worth the effort you put forth in its development. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Justice never sleeps. It will be crucial to your own sleeping patterns that you sort out an unjust situation in your waking hours. Do what it takes to keep your own conscience clear, and encour-age others to do the right thing, too. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You will inspire and empower the people around you. The best part is that you don’t have to be in charge of things for this dynamic to happen. You simply contribute in a way that others admire. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Oct. 28). This year you solve small problems, and big ones solve themselves. With your own brand of practical magic, you’ll turn a dysfunctional scene into a highly profi t-able scenario. A key introduction hap-pens in November, and it’s amazing how one person can expand your hori-zons. Invest in yourself and your talent in May. Aries and Gemini people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 19, 3, 22, 48 and 20.

DEAR ABBY: My mother’s family has never been close-knit, but what they did to her was despicable. My grandmoth-er died recently, and not one person in the family called Mom to notify her. We saw it in our local paper. No funeral details were mentioned, so we called the mortu-ary repeatedly only to be told arrangements were “still pend-ing.” Mother tried to contact her sister, but got no response. She called her brother four times. He told her the same thing -- the arrangements were pending. Two days later, Mom heard from another relative that her mother had been buried in a private ceremony with only im-mediate family. Mother called her brother again, and was told it wasn’t true -- the arrangements were still pending. The next day, Mom and I went to the cemetery to see if the rumor was true. Imagine our sadness when we found my grandmother’s grave. Mom was heartbroken that she wasn’t able to pay her respects to her own mother. We went to my uncle to break the news to him, thinking he didn’t know, and were shocked when he admitted he had known all along about the arrangements, but that Mother’s older sister had instructed him to share no information with Mother. He said his “hands were tied” because she made him promise not to divulge any details to us. Abby, PLEASE tell your readers that no matter how dys-functional family ties may be, everyone should be able to pay last respects to their own parent. And funeral homes should have the decency to tell callers that funeral arrangements are private rather than lying about it. -- BRENDA IN TEXAS DEAR BRENDA: My deepest sympathy to you and your mother for your loss. Regardless of what caused the falling out with her siblings, their behavior was brutal and allowed her no closure. They have made it plain that she should keep her dis-

tance, and for her own sake I hope she will. It is obvious who “runs” that family, and further contact will cause your mother only more pain and frustration. Sometimes people have to build their own family, and that’s what I recommend you do. DEAR ABBY: At 78, my dad has given up on life. After a bout with cancer in his 50s, he has gone downhill with severe depression, sleep apnea, heart issues, etc. Dad sleeps about 20 hours a day, and refuses to do anything to improve his quality of life. My mom is a vibrant woman of 70 who enjoys excellent health. She has many years ahead of her, but her quality of life has diminished because of my father. We encourage her to fi nd some kind of life outside the home through friends, women’s groups, church groups, etc., but she’s reluctant to leave Dad. She’s a youthful person who is, basically, living with a corpse. I love my father, but his refusal to do anything to make his life better (treat his sleep apnea, get some exercise, take his meds properly) makes me realize he won’t change. I hate that two lives are being destroyed because of Dad’s choices. How can I make Mom see her life could be better? -- TROUBLED SON IN ILLINOIS DEAR TROUBLED SON: You and your mom should sched-ule an appointment with your father’s physician to discuss ev-erything you have disclosed to me. His doctor needs to know he sleeps 20 hours a day and isn’t compliant in taking his meds. And you need to fi nd out whether your father’s condition IS improvable at this point, because you may be judging him too harshly. While your mother’s life might improve if she got out more, it’s possible that if she took the time away from your dad she would feel too guilty to get the most out of it. If there are family members or friends who would stay with him while she went out, she might be more receptive. Remember, you can always suggest, but don’t push.

GORHAM-- Sophomore Kyle Bois-selle scored the games’ only goal and the Gorham defense kept the Engi-neers off the scoreboard, leading the Huskies to an exciting 1-0 victory over Woodsville in a boys Division IV

soccer game in Gorham Wednesday. It was senior day and prior to the start of the game, the Huskie seniors were honored in a brief ceremony, along with their parents.

The only goal of the game came at 32:22 of the fi rst half, off the foot of Boisselle from teammate Jon

Chabot. A great centering pass from Chabot found Boisselle open from 20 yards out. Boisselle hit a nice hard skipping shot past the keeper for the 1-0 score. The goal was Boisselle’s fourth of the year, while Chabot earned his team leading tenth assist of the Fall.

Both teams played hard and spir-ited soccer. For the Gorham boys, it was the fi nal time the seniors would wear their home white uniforms.

For the game, the goaltenders, Gorham’s Tyler Sanschagrin made fi ve saves and Woodsville’s Kevin

Briggs had nine blocks. The Hus-kies held a decided edge in corners eleven to zero.

“Some of the most passionate soccer we have played all year,” said Gorham coach William Goodrich. “Losing to Woodsville earlier this year, having senior day, and just being our fi nal regular season game seem to elevate the teams play. Although only scoring one goal we created a number of very good scoring chances off good unselfi sh play. Another very strong defensive

game against a dangerous Woodville team.”

The Gorham boys ended their season with a 9-7 record. The Hus-kies seem to be peaking at the right time of the year. Gorham will face the seventh ranked team and be on the road for the opening round of the playoffs. In their last seven games, Gorham has won six and only suffer-ing a tough 1-0 loss to Littleton.

Berlin Youth Hockey Mite resultsCapitals 7 Sabres 0.The Berlin Mites opened their

season on October 1, at the Notre Dame Arena against the Concord Capitals. The Concord Capitals came on strong in the fi rst period producing 14 shots on net. The visi-tors were held to only one goal by Berlin net minder Cameron Rear-don. The Berlin offense was held to only 2 shots on the Capitals Goalie.

The second period consisted of much of the same with the capi-tals shooting 22 times and Reardon standing on his head to save 19 of the shots. Berlin was only able to fi nd the offense zone a few times and was able to get one shot on net.

The third period was a more bal-anced period for the Berlin Mites and they were able to get a few chances to score to include a break-away opportunity from defenseman Ben Estrella. The Capital’s goalten-der was able to stop the attempt. Berlin had two shots on goal for the period while Concord added another nine shots and scored three more goals.

Reardon had a total of 45 shots on net for the game. Berlin’s offense consists of Griffi n Melanson, Jonah

Berthiaume, Brayden Riendeau, Mickaley Walsh, Jamison Walsh, Cameron Sloan, Brody Duquette, Brady Poulin, Gracie Bilodeau, and Evan Poulin. The Defense consists of Ben Estrella, Blake Scarinza, Carter Poulin, Kolin Melanson, Jil-lian Halle, and Maria Frennette. Coaching staff consists of head coach Jay Poulin, assistant coaches Corey Riendeau, Al Halle, and Sean Walsh.

traveled to Ice Den in Hooksett NH, to face the Avalanche. Berlin came out strong an just 27 seconds into the game (11:33) Ben Estrella broke up a pass in the neutral zone and passed to Jonah Berthiaume. Berthiaume rushed the puck into the offensive zone and beat the ava-lanche goalie with a wrist shot.

The 1-0 lead was short lived the Avalanche answered less than a minute later and tied the game (10:47). At the 7:44 mark of the fi rst Berlin was in the offensive zone and Berthiaume passed the puck to the front of the net to Brayden Rien-deau. Riendeau shot the puck, got his rebound, and scored for a 2-1 lead.

The lead was short lived with the Avalanche tying the game 30 sec-onds later. After one period of play the score was tied 2 -2.

In the second period, at the 9:26 Mark Estrella was able to get a breakaway and beat the Avalanche goalie for a 3-2 Berlin lead.

At the 1:47 mark of the second the Avalanche tied the game sending both teams into the third tied 3-3.

The Avalanche came back strong

and tied the game for good 4-4 at the 8:12 point. Berlin had pressure the last two minutes of the period with several scoring opportunities. How-ever, the future Mountaineers was unable to score earning points for the tie.

Other players contributing to the offense were Gracie Bilodeau, Brody Duquette, Brady Poulin, Evan Poulin, Cameron Sloane, Jamison Walsh, and Mickailey Walsh. Play-ing a solid defensive game for Berlin were Maria Frenette, Jillian Halle, Kolin Melanson, Carter Poulin, and Blake Scarinza.

BERLIN--”The Berlin Junior High School Cross Country Running Team experienced numerous team and indi-vidual achievements throughout the 2011 season.

On the female side of things, Coach Steve Enman had eight runners - Amanda Aversano, Dayna Bergeron, Marayah Davenport, K.C. Fortier, Van-essa Leeman, Renee Morrissette,and Tiffi ney Poirier, all 6th or 7th graders, and 8th grader Kayla Lapre. These girls ran tough all season, had the full compliment of runners for all meets, never gave up and really came together as a team. The highlights of the season included strong second-place fi nishes at both the Kennett Invitational and the lone home meet we had in late Sep-tember.

Nineteen boys ran for Berlin, the second largest team of runners aside from Kennett of any schools we ran against all season. The competition was fi erce each and every meet, with the likes of Kennett, Gilford, King-swood, Winnisquam, Belmont and

Plymouth to contend with nearly each time we competed. The boys were con-sistent and competitive every meet and every practice. The 6th and 7th graders included: Ben Bergeron, Matt Demers, Zachary Farren, Jessie Fec-teau, Trent Garcia, Jordan Lacasse, Calvin Ruediger, Jackie Smith and Carter Thompson. Eighth grader run-ners were: Austin Bouchard, Cory Fau-teux, Cullen Fortier, Cody Miller, Keith Morin, Tim Glover, Triston Poirier, and Jordan Whiting. Austin Demers and Seth Hinkley also competed.

It was a great and enjoyable season. My accolades go out to all the runners who started, fi nished and gave their best efforts throughout the season. Thanks also to all the parents, friends and fans of the sport who helped in many different ways at our one and only home meet.

Both teams need to keep running because if you do the future of running in

Berlin (at the junior high and high school level) looks bright.”

Gorham girls lose a tough one to WoodsvilleGORHAM-- The Woodsville Engineers scored a

last second goal to defeat the Gorham Huskies 2-1 in a division IV girls Soccer game in Gorham last week.

Gorham’s Leslee Kenison scored at 32:50 of the fi rst half to put Gorham up 1-0. The goal was Keni-son’s seventh of the season.

The visitors tied it up at 8:11 of the second half. Andrea Bigelow was the goal getter for the Engi-neers. That set up the closing moments of the game. “The last second goal scored by Woodsville, we didn’t see who it was because of the confusion in front of the net,” said coach Jeff Stewart. “The girls played

the game with a lot of heart and desire and really wanted this one. Although the outcome was not in our favor, I believe the girls played their best game of the season and if we can play at that level we may surprise some teams in the playoffs.” Stewart continued, “I want to thank Libby and Danika for their years of dedication to the program. Both play-ers went down with injuries during the game, but were able to come back and play hard. They showed everyone what it takes to play Gorham ladies soccer.

For the game statistically, Woodsville had nine shots, made eight saves, and took six corners. Gorham had 12 shots, made fi ve saves, and took two corners. The Gorham girls will travel to Newmarket to take on the Mules Tuesday.

Gorham girls stun number 5 Newmarket in opening round of playoffs, 3-2

NEWMARKET- Junior captain Jessica Stewart scored a pair of goals and top sniper Lily Keenan added the other, lifting the 12th ranked lady Hus-kies to a 3-2 victory over the Newmarket Mules in the opening round of the Division IV girls soccer playoffs Wednesday, in Newmarket.

“The girls played one heck of an emotional game,” said coach Jeff Stewart. “All season long, Chris and I have been stressing the importance of starting the game with energy, intensity, and desire and they have fi nally found that in the last

two games.”Stewart got the Huskies on the board with 18:04

left to go in the fi rst half. Keenan was the play maker on Stewart’s sixth goal of the season. The two teams battled back and forth for the remain-der of the fi rst half.

Just two minutes into the second half, Stewart had a gargantuan individual effort that had her fi nish with a perfect shot over the head of New-market keeper Weiker for a 2-0 advantage.

Just four minutes later, Keenan buried her 20th goal for the Fall on an assist from youngster Julia Labnon to push the Huskie advantage to three.

However, Newmarket got to be ranked #5 for a reason and with 20 minutes to play, they turned the game around. Anolisse Schmidt got the Mules on the board to make it a 3-1 contest. Newmarket was laying it on the line and pushing everyone forward into the Gorham end.

There was eight minutes to go when Newmar-ket’s Katrina Holmes found the back of the net past Gorham net minder Casandra Poulin to cut the home teams’ defi cit to one at 3-2.

The Huskies defense stiffened for the remain-der of the contest and at the sound of the fi nal whistled, the Gorham girl’s team had pulled off the upset and are headed to the quarter-fi nals.

“Cassandra Poulin had the game of her career in net,” said Stewart. “She played with confi -dence and was a true inspiration. Our defensive

Hayley Holmes, Maggie Currier, Stacey Holmes and Brooke Nadeau never backed down from any-thing they threw at us (and they did come hard). Our senior leadership of Libby Ouellette and Danika Gorham also gave everything they had as they knew it may be their last game and they showed they didn’t want it to be. Our powerhouse offensive threats of Leslie Kenison, Jessica Stew-

art and Lily Keenan were a thorn in Newmarket’s defense all game. This is a rewarding win for the girls”.

BERLIN-- Newport goal keeper Jenna Schur-man turned away ten shots, and her team mate Julia Sullivan scored the game’s only goal, lifting the sixth ranked Tigers to an exciting 1-0 victory over the third ranked Lady Mountaineers in the quarter fi nal round of the girls’ Division III fi eld hockey playoffs in Berlin Saturday.

The Tigers came in to the game fresh off a 2-0 victory over Profi le. In the fi rst half, Newport refused to let the Berlin girls generate any offense. The Tigers simply came ready to play, making sure that all of their players got back defensively. Berlin did not get a shot on to Schurman at all in the fi rst half. Berlin head coach, Nicole Arguin called a fi rst half time out at 10:02 and pleaded with her troops to stop watching and begin run-ning.

Newport caught the Berlin girls fl at footed and

Berlin keeper Morgan Ouellet made two solid blocks to keep the visitors off the scoreboard. At the twenty-six minute mark of the fi rst half, New-port was awarded their third corner try of the half, to Berlin’s one. The third time was the charm as Newport got the ball to Julia Sullivan on the left side. Sullivan’s shot from fi fteen yards out, appeared to change direction and past Ouellet for the 1-0 Newport lead.

In the second half, Berlin rarely let Newport out of their end. Berlin began an offensive on-slought that had them totally out play the Tigers. An amazing ten shots and thirteen corners, had New-port’s Schurman constantly busy.

Berlin’s Thompson had a few good scoring chances that went just wide or Schurman came up with a huge save. Thompson appeared to score the game tying goal, a beautiful back-hander that sent the home town fans into a frenzy. The out-

offi cial came in an overruled the other game offi cial claiming that the ball struck a Berlin player, before it went into the goal, keeping the Tigers on top 1-0.

That ignited the Berlin girls intensity and offensive pressure. Senior sniper Megan Hood blasted a one-timer crossing pass that found the pad of Schurman. Another shot from the right side of the net, defl ected off the shoulder of a Newport defender and then struck the cross bar, staying out of the goal.

With two minutes to go, Newport fi nally got the ball out of their end. The Berlin girls were exhausted from their all out second half attack. At the sound of the fi nal whistle, a jubilant Tiger team, mauled their keeper celebrating the big victory.

At the other end of the fi eld, a stunned group of Lady Mountaineers, awaited to shake hands. Berlin had nothing to be ashamed of, especially after a com-plete domination in the second half. The winner of the day was a red hot Newport goal tender by the name of Jenna Schurman, who did her job to perfection.

Haas wins bout, will box in title matchBERLIN -- Berlin’s Cody Haas

traveled to Brockton, Mass., this past weekend and defeated Rhode Island’s Jamal Saunders in a three round decision in the semi-fi nals of the prestigious Rocky Marciano Tournament. Haas advances to the fi nals of the amateur welter weight division on November 4 in Water-town, Mass.

“It was a heck of a fi ght,” said local trainer Dick Kimber. “The two of them went toe to toe right from the opening bell. Cody did a better job at slipping punches, and it eventually paid off with standing eight counts in both the second and the third rounds.”

Haas has had some great train-ing to prepare for the tournament, including Kimber and Cody’s dad, Gary Haas, a former Olympic boxer. The Haas family is originally from Ohio and has transferred to the Berlin area, as Gary is a federal offi -cer.

Haas has been training for months

in Jackson and is supported by Roland Sanschagrin, Roger Vil-lenueve, and the Red Fox Restau-rant in Jackson. Haas has a week to polish his skills as he enters the tournament’s fi nals on Friday, November 4.

Berlin boxer Cody Haas, seen here throwing a punch during a local sparring match, won his fi ght by decision in the semifi nal round of the Rocky Marciano Tournament in Massachusetts over the weekend. Haas will go on to compete in the tournament fi nals in the amateur welter weight division.

Mounties battle Gilford to 1-1 tie The senior members of the BHS soccer team were honored along with their parents after their 1-1 two overtime tie with undefeated Gilford. From L-R; Curtis Arsenault, Zach Bacon, Jake Drouin, Ethan Dorval, Jeremy Rivard, and Jesse Deblois. (JEAN LEBLANC PHOTO)

BERLIN-It was senior day for the Berlin boy’s soccer team. However, the Mounties had a tall task at hand, taking on probably the best team over the last fi ve years in Division III. Gilford came into the game undefeated, while the Mountaineers had but one loss and they wanted to stay put as the second seed for the playoffs.

Curtis Arsenault’s penalty kick tied the game in the second half. The remainder of regulation and two sudden death over times kept two Division III powerhouses deadlocked at 1-1 for the tie Wednes-day in Berlin.

The visiting Eagles got on the board fi rst, scoring with just 2:12 to play in the fi rst half. Devon Dor-modia converted a Gilford corner that was kicked low and hard defl ecting to the Eagle forward. Dor-modia ran on to the loose ball and blasted it far side from in close and a 1-0 lead.

The cry of urgency was repeated over and over

again from the Berlin bench. The Mounties caught a break at 5:51 of the second half. The Gilford team was whistled for a hand ball inside the pen-alty area, giving the Berlin squad a penalty kick. The coaching staff called upon senior captain and goal keeper Curtis Arsenault to take the kick. Arsenault picked the right time to score his fi rst varsity goal of his career, beating Gilford’s Veazey to his left, to tie the game 1-1.

Both clubs would play near midfi eld and tried to control the ball. The Eagles appeared to be a little fresher down the stretch and in overtime. How-ever, Berlin did not break and kept the score tied at 1-1.

For the game, Berlin’s Arsenault had nine saves in regulation and three in the overtimes. Gilford’s Veazy had six saves in regulation and was not tested by the Mounties in the overtime sessions. Gilford held an eight to four edge in cor-ners.

The tie placed the Mounties at 14-1-1 on the

year and they will be ranked #2 in the up-coming playoffs. Berlin will host a home game on Thurs-day afternoon at 3 p.m. at Gaydo fi eld.

PLYMOUTH – The New Hamp-shire Preservation Alliance has recognized 12 Plymouth State Uni-versity art students and faculty advisor Tom Driscoll for their role in beautifying and preserving an endangered, historic Berlin, N.H., industrial building. The students designed, produced and installed 24 mural panels over damaged win-dows (removed for repair) at Brown Company R & D Building. The mural project transforms the build-ing’s appearance and helps tell the story of the development and impact of what was the largest paper manu-facturer in the world and also depicts key aspects of Berlin’s cultural his-tory and heritage.

Jennifer Goodman, executive director of the New Hampshire Preservation Alliance, said the PSU contingent is among group a of 15 individuals and student groups, ages 25 and younger, who are being rec-ognized by the Alliance for helping investigate, preserve and promote the state’s heritage on the occasion of the Alliance’s 25th anniversary.

“Historic preservation activity is often seen as the purview of estab-lished practitioners or older vol-unteers,” said Goodman, executive director of the Preservation Alli-ance. “But in fact, even in our world of instant-messaging technology and global connections, young people in New Hampshire are committed to

history and celebrating and protect-ing special places.”

PSU’s Center for Rural Partner-ship’s Coös County Outreach Initia-tive (supported by the Neil & Louise Tillotson Fund of the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation) brought together individuals from the public and private sectors to contribute to this project while creating educa-tional opportunities for PSU stu-dents and faculty. PSU Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs Dr. Julie Bernier noted the mural project embodies the institution’s commitment to supporting northern New Hampshire communities.

“A project like the Coos County Outreach Initiative taps into the

intellectual resources that a Univer-sity has to offer in supporting the region,” said Bernier. “This is a won-derful example of the University and community coming together.”

The 768 square foot mural, com-posed of 4’ by 8’ paintings, was installed this past July as restoration work begins on the nearly century-old building, which is nationally signifi -cant as one of the earliest privately owned industrial R&D facilities in the United States. Within its walls, Brown Company scientists pioneered innovations in the wood pulp and paper industries, transforming the use of forest products and enhancing the value and productivity of forests across New England and the world.
