Over the weekend, workers installed the translucent canopy that covers half of the new park developed as part of the Bickford Place project. Steel fretwork has been installed on the front of the former Rite Aid building to make the building more appealing for retail and commercial space. The park will include a foundation, benches and some landscaping. When completed, it will provide a place for civic events and ceremonies. While the building, which was donated to the city, is available for sale or lease, the park will remain the property of the city. A ribbon cutting ceremony is planned for the annual Drive in the Fifties event. The project has been undertaken by the Berlin Industrial Development and Park Authority. (BARBARA TETREAULT PHOTO).

Selectmen make minor revision to proposed noise ordinance

GORHAM— The Gorham Board of Selectmen Monday opted to make two small revisions to the proposed noise ordinance.

After reviewing the proposed ordi-nance during a work session, the board decided to alter the timeframe for operating maintenance equipment and add birds to the portion address-ing noisy animals. The board didn’t make any other changes to the pro-posed ordinance besides those two pieces.

The board is set to vote on the noise ordinance at its meeting on May 9.

Gorham residents voted 74- 70 to recommend that the board enact a noise ordinance at the annual town

Danderson resigns from councilBERLIN – Ward II Councilor Robert Dan-

derson has resigned from the council, becom-ing the fourth city councilor to step down in as many months.

Retiring from his job at Public Service of N.H., Danderson has sold his home and moved to Florida to join his wife. The coun-cil Monday night accepted Danderson’s writ-ten resignation with regret. Danderson was serving his fi rst term on the council but pre-viously had served four terms as mayor.

In his letter, Danderson said he hopes to

see Berlin return to “an industrious, prosper-ous community”.

Ward II residents interested in fi lling the vacancy have until May 13 to submit a letter of interest to the city clerk. To qualify, candi-dates must be 18 years of age, a resident of Berlin for at least a year, and a resident of the ward. Mayor Paul Grenier said the May 16 work session will be devoted to interview-ing candidates and selecting a replacement.

The person appointed to fi ll the vacancy will serve only through the next election when the seat will be up for grabs. In the

Sewer rate, snakes, road tolls on council agenda

BERLIN – The city council approved a sewer rate, passed a revised road toll reso-lution, and discussed exotic snakes in city parks at Monday’s council meeting.

City Manager Patrick MacQueen recom-mended holding the sewer rate at $7.99

per hundred cubic feet for the third year in a row. He reviewed the sewer fund budget with the council. The sewer fund operates as a separate enterprise fund, offset by its own revenues and fees. It is not part of the city’s operating budget and has no impact on prop-erty taxes.

School district begins process of planning future construction

BERLIN— The Berlin School System is set to begin a process that would help it plan for future construc-tion projects in the district.

The Berlin Board of Education Thursday agreed to support the dis-trict putting out a request for quali-fi cations that would help it connect with engineering fi rms interested in helping develop the district’s future construction projects. Business Administrator Bryan Lamirande said this would put the district in a position so when grant funds become available for projects the school is more prepared.

At this point, there’s no money needed to move forward with this plan, said Lamirande. He added the

SAYWHAT...Men don’t care what’s on TV. They

only care what else is on TV.

—Jerry Seinfeld

(NY Times) — For the fi rst time in 20 years, the number of homes in the United States with television sets has dropped.

Discarded analog televi-sion sets in Florida. Analog was rendered obsolete in the switch to digital broadcasting in 2009.

The Nielsen Company, which takes TV set owner-ship into account when it produces ratings, will tell television networks and advertisers on Tuesday that 96.7 percent of American households now own sets, down from 98.9 percent pre-viously.

There are two reasons for the decline, according to Nielsen. One is poverty: some low-income house-holds no longer own TV sets, most likely because they cannot afford new digital sets and antennas.

The other is technological wizardry: young people who have grown up with laptops in their hands instead of remote controls are opting not to buy TV sets when they graduate from college or enter the work force, at least not at fi rst. Instead, they are subsisting on a diet of televi-sion shows and movies from the Internet.

That second reason is prompting Nielsen to think about a redefi nition of the term “television household” to include Internet video viewers.

EAST PRAIRIE, Mo. (NY Times) — Last-ditch efforts to prevent a small Illinois town from fl ood-ing appeared to be working Tuesday morning, hours after the Army Corps of Engineers used explosives to tear open a protective levee.

While the Mississippi and Ohio Rivers, fed by punishing rains, have increasingly posed threats to nearby communities, the water level of the Ohio River in Cairo, Ill., was at 61.72 feet before the levee was breached late Monday night. By 6 a.m. Tues-day, it had fallen to 60.5 feet. For now, at least, Cairo

appears to be safe.As the fl ood protection systems that safeguard

countless communities groaned under the pressure of rising rivers, federal offi cials Monday night exe-cuted a fi ercely debated plan to destroy a part of the levee near Cairo that holds back water near where the Ohio pours into the Mississippi. The blast sent an estimated 550,000 cubic feet of water a second across 130,000 acres of farmland, also inundating about 90 homes near this southeast Missouri town, known as the spillway.

River level drops after blast at levee

(NY Times) — White House offi cials on Tuesday sought to correct the offi cial account of the raid in Pakistan that ended in the killing of Osama bin Laden, saying that the Qaeda leader was not armed and that his wife was not killed.

The new Defense Depart-ment narrative released by the White House, and read at a White House news briefi ng on Tuesday, said that one of Bin

Laden’s wives was shot in the leg as she charged members of the commando team on the third fl oor of the compound.

“In the room with Bin Laden, a woman – Bin Laden’s wife – rushed the U.S. assaulter and was shot in the leg but not killed,” the brief statement said. “Bin Laden was then shot and killed. He was not armed.”

Jay Carney, the White House press secretary, read the narra-

tive in an attempt to correct state-ments by administration offi cials who had suggested Bin Laden was armed during the raid.

Under questioning, Mr. Carney said that the White House stood by its claim on Monday that Bin Laden had resisted capture, but said that “resistance does not require a fi rearm.” Mr. Carney said that the new narrative was the result of “fresh” information.

Rule would make cutting Medicaid payments to providers difficult

WASHINGTON (NY Times) — In a new effort to increase access to health care for poor people, the Obama administration is propos-ing a rule that would make it much more diffi cult for states to cut Medicaid payments to doctors and hospitals.

The rule could also put pressure on some states to increase Medicaid payment rates, which are typically lower than what Medicare and commercial insurance pay. Federal offi cials said Monday that the rule was needed to fulfi ll the promise of federal law, which says Medic-aid recipients should have access to health care at least to the same extent as the general population.

“We have a responsibility to ensure suffi cient benefi ciary access to covered services,” the administration said in issuing the proposal, to be published Friday in the Federal Register.

In many parts of the country, Medicaid recipients have dif-fi culty fi nding doctors who will take them because Medicaid pay-ment rates are so low.

A royal party in the wee hours of the morning Community helps soup kitchen destroyed by fi re

CONCORD — The Friendly Kitchen helps tens of thousands of hungry people in the Concord area get hot meals every year, and now the community is helping it.

The nonprofi t organization’s building was severely damaged by fi re Saturday. The kitchen and all its contents were destroyed.

But the Friendly Kitchen hardly missed a beat, thanks to some generous donations and the help of a local church.

Meals are still being served just around the corner at the Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church, mostly with donated food and volunteers from other orga-nizations.

The Friendly Kitchen serves lunch and dinner during the week and breakfast and dinner on week-ends.

For Tuesday’s lunch, soup and sandwiches from local businesses were served.

The kitchen averages about 35 people for each lunch and 75 people for dinner.

Friendly Kitchen director Jennifer Lombardo said the nonprofi t will be operating at the church until it either rebuilds the facility or fi nds another place.

“Just because we had a fi re doesn’t mean people stop being hungry,” said Lombardo.

Church offi cials said the soup kitchen can remain there for as long as it needs to. Lombardo said large and small donations have helped out. A man who used to eat at the kitchen donated $3, while a pri-vate donor gave $10,000.

Since Saturday, the organization has raised $25,000.

“It’s very heartwarming,” Lombardo said. “It’s amazing. The phone doesn’t stop ringing off the hook. People are just giving like you wouldn’t believe.”

Man found hanging from Interstate 93 overpass

LONDONDERRY — A man hanged himself from the Interstate 93 overpass on Stonehenge Road Monday morning, police said.

Police are withholding the name of the man, pend-ing further investigation but said no foul play was involved.

Authorities were initially called at 5:12 a.m. Monday about an individual on one of the Interstate 93 bridges. One caller identifi ed the overpass at Exit 5 while a second caller said it was the Stonehenge Road overpass, which is south of Exit 5.

Offi cer Keith Lee arrived at the Stonehenge Road overpass within a few minutes of the call and dis-covered the body of a man who appeared to have committed suicide by hanging himself from the overpass, police said.

An automobile registered to the man was found on the north side of Stonehenge Road, just west of the overpass.

Four accused of letting air out of buses’ tiresCONCORD — Police in Concord

said four teenagers were respon-sible for letting the air out of the tires of 27 school buses last month.

The tires were defl ated on April 22, forcing the Merrimack Valley School District to cancel classes

for the day. Police said a special-ized tool was used to defl ate the tires, and aside from the time and effort it took to infl ate the tires, no other damage was reported.

Michael Campbell, 17, of Salisbury; Ryan LaRoche, 17, of

Loudon; Zachary Blanchette, 18, of Webster; and James Capps, 19, of Concord, were charged with criminal mischief and criminal trespass. The four are scheduled to be arraigned on June 2.

Hybrid racecars compete at NHMSLOUDON — More than 20 teams from colleges in

the United States, Canada and Sweden are at New Hampshire Motor Speedway this week as part of the annual Formula Hybrid International Competition.

The teams spend the entire school year building a racecar that runs partly on fossil fuels, such as gas or diesel, but also on an electric motor.

The students design, build and even get sponsors for their vehicles.

They are judged on a variety of factors that

include a 22-kilometer endurance race at the end of the competition.

Representatives from major auto manufacturers and other high-tech companies are on hand.

Organizers said the goal is for the students to show what they can do for these potential employers.

The competition is organized by the Thayer School of Engineering at Dartmouth.

Obama Nails OsamaWhen the news broke late on Sunday

night that our guys had fi nally run down Osama bin Laden and killed him, we all felt like celebrating. It was President Barack Obama, whose thoughtful, well modulated speech announcing the victory, who said it best. Our victory, although it had come nearly 10 years after the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and the plane crash in Pennsylvania, had evened the score.

And it had been a clean, well run affair. Once bin Laden had been located and enough information had been gathered to totally confi rm his location and circumstances, a small force, said to number about forty, went in, did the job it had been assigned to do, and got out unscathed. They brought out the body and unceremoniously buried it at sea. There will be no mourning place to gather, erect a memorial, and honor the man in the future,

There will be, however, an opportunity to learn more about the people who success-fully pulled off the strike. It certainly speaks to their skill and competency. There was no hint of the deed before Obama’s announce-ment. In a world in which maintaining secrecy is nearly impossible, this fact speaks to a tremendous effort. In fact, up until mere minutes before the President appeared on TV, the story had not broken. It will take time for the details of the successful foray to emerge, but each person will be honored for

their skill and perseverance in time.Of course, the men who will rightfully

be honored the most will be Leon Panetta, the director of the Central Intelligence Agency who led the plan an execution of the operation and President Obama who was informed of it and gave the OK to go ahead and get it done. In Panetta’s case it culminates his career as CIA director with a triumph. He has just been elevated to Sec-retary of Defense, a job he will assume in September when Robert Gates, the current secretary, retires.

For President Obama, the dearth of Osama bin Laden fulfi lls a promise he made while a presidential candidate in 2008 to hunt him down and bring him to justice. It also quiets the criticism aimed at him for not doing enough to get the job dome. While speaking modestly about the event, it was clear that he was tremendously satisfi ed to complete the task as he had promised. He was also cautious about making any predic-tions about the future of al Qaeda, bin Lad-en’s terror organization. He noted that over the years al Qaeda had changed and spread to other countries. What was clear was oppo-sition to it would continue and our guard would remain up high.

What is also clear, however, is that bring-ing down bin Laden was an important blow and a possible game changer. No matter what may happen in the future, the game has changed in our favor.

If you have ever spent any time wandering the hinterlands of New England it is likely you have come across a cellar hole or two. This is especially so as spring arrives when in the wake of the retreating snows, fresh new places appear. These, along with mysterious perfect stone walls lost in the midst of old growth for-ests, offer us a glimpse into the long ago lives of the people who lived in those homes; the farm-ers, now ghosts, who painstakingly built those walls. There is something at once romantic, and also sad, about these monuments to another time. People just like us once occupied these spaces, and now they are gone.

Perhaps my favorite pastime is wandering the woods without purpose in mind and with the dogs snuffl ing about as they do in search of new and interesting smells. Sometimes we walk along forest roads, and other times we fi nd our own path among the trees. It is on these quiet afternoons that it is easy to become curious, and refl ective, about the histories that have come and gone. It strikes me as poignant, somehow, that once upon a time someone, or more than likely some family, sought to make a new life in these woods. In life, no one ever begins some new adventure such as homesteading in the forest, with the idea that it might not work out. Rather, we take a leap of faith and invest our life’s savings in the pursuit of a dream. In life, many hopeful beginnings do not end well, and yet we resolutely continue to try. The human spirit for possibility is, it seems, vast and deep; and infi nitely renewable.

These days similar signs of dashed hopes appear in more visible places, too. There are far

too many for-sale signs, going-out-of-business notices, and otherwise newly empty and deso-late places where people once roamed. These spaces have a way of sneaking up and challeng-ing our sense of permanence. A few years ago I had the occasion to view several properties for sale. In each instance there was an unspoken story, sometimes visible and quite often sad, behind the cold hearth and now-empty rooms. No one ever imagines when a house becomes a home that it will one day revert back to empti-ness again. That the smells of fresh paint and wood, along with the sense of anticipation, might one day fade. The simple idea of such an ending is too cruel for those of us who still believe in the hard-as-granite possibility of such things. At times I still miss the fi rst home my family owned because that was the place where the seeds were planted and the founda-tions were laid; our loss of place becoming an unintended consequence of another kind of ending.

It is the same for a small business, restau-rants most especially, as it is almost certain that the owners sank a lifetime of hopes and dreams into what is now become a dark and empty space. Not unlike those long ago New England homesteaders, there must have been a sense of possibility in the anticipation and planning, and in early days of opening the doors. But life is unbearably fi ckle, and usu-ally long; and so it is that nothing lasts forever. Even long established businesses seem to have their life cycles. We have learned the hard way that longevity is no guarantee of a sustainable

The $0.05 gas tax gimmickTo the editor:Owing to a great deal of

pressure and criticism, the Republicans in the State House have, at the very last minute, in the hopes of gaining favoritism with the electorate, introduced an amendment to Senate Bill 78 (relative to motor vehicle registration fees which pre-maturely reduces the $30 registration surcharge) and opens a $6.6 millions gap in the current budget.

The amendment would temporarily reduce the state gas tax by 5 cents, which is speculative in nature in that it would actually trickle down to the consumer for what may be merely an average of $3 per month. The reduction, upon passage, would only be for the months of May and June.

Can the citizens of New Hampshire actually afford the loss of an additional $6.6 million for the Department of Transportation (DOT)? In addition to having less money for plowing and salt-ing of state roads this coming winter, DOT will have less funds for road and bridge repairs. In 2000, roughly 650 miles of state roads required major work. Currently, as of 2010, roughly 1,550 miles are in critical conditions. The situation for red-listed bridges is far worse.

If the Republicans are set on attracting tourists, making our roads less safe not only

for tourists but our citizens as well, by cutting revenues to DOT is not the most pru-dent way in which to operate.

New Hampshire Repub-licans proclaim their con-servatism and their fi scal restraint. However, the budget the Republicans are about to pass is anything but restrained, it is radical. It is not conservative but destructive. The cuts in the next state budget threaten not only the safety net that governments must provide for the disadvantaged, but it also denies the regulatory function of government.

When defending the fi ve cent reduction in the gas tax, last Wednesday, April 27, on the fl oor of the House, Representative D.J. Betten-court (Salem), the Majority Leader, responded: “ But I’ll tell you who doesn’t fi nd this to be a gimmick. Residents of Massachusetts!” Annex-ing portions of the Bay State into NH districts had not been made part of any redis-tricting plan for which the Democrats have been made aware.

future.So as we wander the forest and come

across a cellar hole, I like to pause to imagine who lived there and to pay quiet respects to their long-ago dream. I imagine the now-quiet voices of their routine, and in my mind can smell the woodsmoke wafting from the now-tum-bled chimney even as the fi re comes to life at the end of another hard New England day. It is true that this chap-

ter of life may well have continued else-where, far from the forest, thus making this lonely place just one stop along the way. It is nice, I suppose, to imagine that this is so. Our resilience, as a species, is remarkable and new life and dreams do have a way of emerging from the ashes as did the Phoenix of legend. For it is so that no matter how today ends, for most of us there is always the hope and promise of a fresh, new day.

WHY from page 4

Proposed budget cuts equal loss to water quality, economyTo the editor:A sorry result of the two-year

budget recently passed by the New Hampshire House, and other Department of Environmental Services program reductions, is the elimination of five water qual-ity management and monitoring programs: the Freshwater Beach Inspection Program, Lakes & Rivers Management Programs, and the Volunteer Lake and River Assessment Programs.

Eliminating these water pro-grams has severe ramifications by 1) abdicating state responsibility for public health and safety and downshifting costs to towns; 2) increasing economic and job losses in the private sector; and 3) dis-mantling volunteer programs that provide stewardship and water quality monitoring of NH’s waters.

At risk are 1,000 lakes and ponds and over 12,000 miles of rivers and streams-- some of New Hampshire’s greatest economic assets that con-tribute to quality of life and attract businesses. Studies show that 9,000 to 15,000 full- and part-time jobs support boating, fishing, and swim-ming in New Hampshire and gen-erate over $300 million in annual household income, and about $1.2 billion in annual total sales. The state’s waterfront owners annually pay approximately $247 million in property taxes, and water quality is a primary factor in property val-uation. How can towns afford the State’s inattention to water qual-ity?

Who will now test 158 beaches for fecal bacteria and cyanobacte-ria? The House budget effectively says, “No one.” This testing is cru-cial to public health and safety. Municipalities will have to take up the slack - if they can.

Currently, DES staff coordinates over 700 water quality sampling volunteers, who, in 2010, sampled 2,024 miles of rivers and over 300 lakes. This comprised 40% of the

water quality data used in required US EPA Clean Water Act report-ing. NH’s River and Lake Man-agement Advisory Committees, all volunteer and including represen-tation from industry, hydroelectric, agriculture, historic, water supply, academia, state government, and conservation interests work with NH DES staff to collaboratively seek solutions to the growing com-plexity of water issues. Volunteer efforts at this scale need underly-ing staff to function -- it does not just happen for free. The House-passed budget zeroes out funding for these programs and the DES staff supporting them.

When created in 1987, the NH DES Biology program had six biologists conducting lake and river water quality manage-ment and monitoring. The House budget reduces this to two biolo-gists. Gone entirely are the Lakes and Rivers Management Protec-tion Program staff and volunteer committee capacity to protect our state’s drinking water supplies, water quality, recreational oppor-tunities, tourist attractions, fisher-ies, and wildlife habitat.

We recognize that NH faces dif-ficult budget choices. But New Hampshire is growing fast, com-pounding the challenges of man-aging water user conflicts and maintaining quality water assets. Would a company with billion dollar assets put zero dollars into protecting them? While the Gov-ernor’s proposed budget severely reduces staff and funds these pro-grams at a bare $350,000, at least it keeps the programs operational.

Our Committees, representing a diverse spectrum of interests, ask the Senate to retain these pro-grams in the NH DES budget and at a minimum support them at the Governor’s proposed funding level.

Half of the council elected in Novem-ber 2009 has now resigned for reasons

ranging from family and work commit-ments to moving out of the area. Ward IV Councilor Tim Cayer resigned in February followed by the resignations of Ward IV Councilor David Poulin and Ward I Councilor Ryan Landry in March.

next phase would happen when money comes available.

Lamirande said this could help the district be better prepared if funding is found for some of it’s future construction plans, which include an access road, a bus garage and a biomass boiler.

The starting point is the request for qualifications, said Lamin-rande, and then if funds are found the district can then tell an engi-neering firm to draw up blueprints. He added if money is found to move

past the blueprint phase, the dis-trict can then keep moving its way through the construction process for a project.

Another important aspect of this approach to construction, said Lamirande, is that all the projects should be considered at the same time. He added this means if the access road if the first project to move, the plans should consider future additions of the bus garage and biomass boiler.

“Each phase should be a value added,” said Lamirande.

PLANNING from page one

meetings.So far, the only change pro-

posed to the ordinance is moving the timeframe for construction to 9 p.m.- 6 a.m. from 7 p.m.- 6 a.m. This recommendation was made during the town meeting.

The selectmen agreed to make that change to the ordinance.

Later in the ordinance, Frost pointed out that it excludes operat-ing any machinery while engaged in snow removal from being a vio-lation. She added it should offset so people understand it’s exempted under the ordinance.

The other change made was to include bird to the paragraph that references noisy animals.

Police Chief PJ Cyr raised the question whether having the animal piece in the noise ordi-nance was redundant since the town already has existing means to deal with noisy dogs.

Selectman Terry Oliver said he was concerned that if the town relied solely on its existing dog ordinance to deal with noise issues, people with loud birds might argue that it’s not technically an animal. He added he wants to make sure the language is clear and enforce-able.

Cyr agreed with the change.

Earlier during the work session, Cyr and the Board discussed the necessity of the first subparagraph in the ordinance.

The subparagraph includes the operation or maintenance of any device, instrument, vehicle, or machinery that causes discomfort of annoyance or endangers the com-fort, repose, health, peace or safety of residents in the area, according to the proposed ordinance.

Cyr said it’s potentially a redun-dancy since state law exists that deals with disorderly conduct.

Selectman David Graham said he thinks having that piece in the ordinance strengthens the officers’ abilities to enforce it. He added he feels it reinforces the state law.

Frost said maybe it’s better to leave the language in the ordi-nance since there could be situa-tions where noise levels don’t reach the level to violate the disorderly conduct law, but can be considered a violation of the noise ordinance.

Cyr said he didn’t have a problem with leaving it in the ordinance but wanted to raise the question since it was brought up during the town meeting.

He added he does see how it could help deal with noise levels that don’t quite meet the disor-derly conduct standards.

This year, the team’s basis for the sketch was the Triple Take Road Show, during which the group needed to tell one story three differ-ent ways in eight minutes. The B.H.S. team opted to re-tell “Little Red Riding Hood.” The B.H.S. team won the coveted Da Vinci Award for exception creativity at the regional competition. The school board also got a chance to see performances from two other Destination Imagination Teams. (CRAIG LYONS PHOTO)

FINANCIAL FOCUS Lifetime Income: A Great Mother’s Day Gift

Mother’s Day will soon be here. If you’re a mother, you will (hopefully) receive thoughtful cards an d gifts. But there’s one present you may eventually want to give yourself, and it’s a gift that truly does keep on giving: a strategy for your retirement. Of course, it’s important for everyone to build adequate financial resources for retirement — but the challenge is even greater for women. Largely due to family responsibilities, women spend, on average, 12 years less in the workforce than men, according to the Women’s Institute for a Secure Retirement. Less time in the workforce equates to lost earnings, missed promotions, smaller and fewer raises and reduced retirement plan benefits. In fact, men have, on average, about $91,000 in Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs), including all IR A types and the amounts rolled over from other retirement accounts into IRAs, compared to just $51,000 for women, according to a recent report issued by the Employee Benefit Research Institute. Whether you’re married, divorced, widowed or single, you’ll want to build financial resources of you r own and be prepared to manage your finances during your retirement years. You’ll be helping yourself, and, by becoming financially independent, you’ll also avoid the possibility of depending o n your grown children for support. To help ensure a financially secure retirement, consider these ideas: •Fully fund your IRA each year. As the numbers above show, women are way behind men when it comes to funding their IRAs. And IRAs, with their tax advantages, are great retirement-savings vehicles. A traditional IRA have the potential to grow on a tax-deferred basis, while Roth IRAs have the potential to grow tax-free, provided you’ve had your account at least five years and you don’t start taking withdrawals until you’re 59-1/2. So make it a priority to “max out” on your IRA each ye ar. In 2011, you can put in up to $5,000 to a traditional or Roth IRA, or $6,000 if you’re 50 or older. •Boost your 401(k) contributions. Put in as much as you can afford to your 401(k) or other employer- sponsored retirement plan. At the very least, contribute enough to earn your employer’s match, if one is offered. (In 2011, you can put in up to $16,500, or $22,000 if you’re 50 or older.) Your earn ings have the opportunity to grow tax-deferred and you have a range of investment options, so your 401(k) or other retirement plan can be an effective, flexible way to put money away for the future. •Invest in an annuity. If you’ve reached the contribution limits of your IRA and 401(k), you may wan t to consider purchasing an annuity, which can be structured to provide you with regular payments for the rest of your life. And this lifetime income source is especially important to women, who, at age 65, can expect to live, on average, almost 20 more years, compared to slightly over 17 for men of th e same age, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. As a mother, you willingly spend a great deal of time and effort on your children. But it’s importan t to also think about yourself and your future, so review your strategy for retirement with your financia l advisor, and take the actions needed to help make sure you can enjoy all the Mother’s Days of your life in the comfort you deserve.

MacQueen noted that projections show the average homeowner in Berlin will pay $575 for sewer in 2011, close to the $554 for an average homeowner in the state.

Councilor Lucie Remillard raised concerns about the road toll resolution on Monday’s agenda for passage. At the urging of City Clerk Debra Patrick, last month the council agreed to con-sider a resolution setting some rules for the volunteer road tolls at Glen Avenue Park used as fundraisers by many local organizations.

Remillard said she had an oppor-tunity to talk to Steve Tardiff of IGA Foodliner and he said the barricade placed on the Pleasant Street side of the park needs to be moved towards the intersection to avoid interfering with traffi c coming in and out of the IGA. Remillard said she also observed kids moving out beyond the barricades last week and waving down traffi c and said she remains concerned about lia-bility issues. She suggested the coun-cil work out the issues before taking the resolution off the table. Councilor Tom McCue said he would like to see the council pass the resolution so it is in place as the season for road tolls gets underway and then fi ne-tune it to address issues that come up.

Councilor Roland Theberge recom-mended the city limit the road tolls to the Glen Avenue side of the park instead of allowing road tolls on both sides of the park. He said that would be safer because there would be no problem with traffi c turning in and out of IGA. Public Works Director Mike Perreault said his department could mark with paint the site for the barri-cades. The resolution requires all par-ticipants to remain behind a barricade while soliciting donations.

The new resolution, which the council passed with the new stipula-tions, limits the number of road tolls to one per week. Applicants must be non-profi t organizations with a direct connection to Berlin. The city clerk remains in charge of issuing road toll permits and a new application form has been developed.

The council also decided to add a pro-vision that all road tolls must be super-vised by an adult.

Councilor Diana Nelson said she received two complaints about people bringing their exotic snakes into city parks. In the cases reported to her, two people were walking in the park with large snakes wrapped around them. Nelson said one parent was nervous and would not let her children play in the park with the snakes present. The children were described as fearful of the snakes.

Nelson noted dogs are not allowed in city parks and said she thinks snakes and exotic pets should be banned as well.

“Parks are designed for kids to play,” she said.

Remillard said she thinks the issue is broader than just city parks. She said she has seen people with snakes walk-ing on the street and at city events.

Mayor Paul Grenier suggested con-sulting with the police department for recommendations.

In other businesses:• The council authorized Fire Chief

Randall Trull to go forward with a 155-B order against Berlin Real Estate Development Corp. for its building at 49 Gilbert Street. The order requires the owner to provide the city with a plan to demolish the building, remove the debris, and fi ll in any cellar holes within 20 days and to have the work completed within 60 days. If the owner fails to comply, the city can act to demolish the building and take a lien out against the property and any other property the owner holds in the state. The property is on the city’s tax deed list. Grenier said the city needs to move forward with a 155-B order against 702 Glen Avenue, which is owned by Coos County Realty Corporation.

• Gregg Marrer resigned from the zoning board because of a work confl ict and Ronald Cote said he did not want to be re-appointed to another term. With the earlier resignation of chair-man Harold Bigelow, the board is down three members. The council approved the appointment of alternate member Greg Estrella to a regular seat. The city is looking for two more regular members and people willing to serve as alternates.

• Gerald Dumoulin was appointed to another term on the Berlin Industrial Development and Park Authority.

It all started in the late 1800s when the fi rst Thomas Gill arrived in Canada as a young man and trav-elled to Massachusetts to study the plant growing business. Eventually, he came north, bought out the Smith Greenhouse and that's how we began.

We are now 111 years old and the store is operated by third and fourth generation!

ably impossible. Now we buy in all our products.

Gills carries all your fl oral and plant needs. Over the years we have added silks, stuffed animals, balloons and handmade chocolates.

Most recently, we have become the place to drop off and pick up your cleaning. It has brought different cli-ental to our store whom we are happy to serve.

Before I Was Myself, You Made Me, Me

Before I was myself you made me, meWith love and patience, discipline and tears,Then bit by bit stepped back to set me free,

Allowing me to sail upon my sea,Though well within the headlands of your fears.

Before I was myself you made me, me

With dreams enough of what I was to beAnd hopes that would be sculpted by the years,

Then bit by bit stepped back to set me free,

Relinquishing your powers graduallyTo let me shape myself among my peers.Before I was myself you made me, me,

And being good and wise, you gracefullyAs dancers when the last sweet cadence nears

Bit by bit stepped back to set me free.

For love inspires learning naturally:The mind assents to what the heart reveres.And so it was through love you made me, me

By slowly stepping back to set me free.

Bound up the wounds I did not seeAnd gave me hopes and passions new.

I can return but love for you,Whose unmoved faith my heart did move,

And gave me hopes and passions new,And loved me till I turned to love.

Whose unmoved faith did my heart move?The mother of my heart, not blood,Who loved me till I turned to love.

And I became the soul I would.

The mother of my heart, not blood,Bound up the wounds I did not see.

And I became the soul I wouldFor all that you have given me.

Grandmothers Are Mothers Who Are GrandGrandmothers are mothers who are grand,

Restoring the sense that our most precious thingsAre those that do not change much over time.

No love of childhood is more sublime,Demanding little, giving on demand,

More inclined than most to grant the wings On which we fl y off to enchanted lands.

Though grandmothers must serve as second mothers,Helping out with young and restless hearts,

Each has all the patience wisdom brings,Remembering our passions more than others,

Soothing us with old and well-honed arts.

As we look back As we look back over time We find ourselves wondering.... Did we remember to thank you enough, For all you have done for us? For all the times you were by our sides To help and support us... To celebrate our successes To understand our problems And to accept our defeats? Or for teaching us by your example, The value of hard work, good judgement, Courage and integrity? We wonder if we ever thanked you For the sacrifices you made. To let us have the very best? And for the simple things. Like laughter, smiles and times we shared? If we have forgotten to show our Gratitude enough for all the things you did, We’re thanking you now. And we are hoping you knew all along, How much you meant to all of us. No farewell words were spoken, no time to say goodbye, you were gone before we knew it, and only God knows why! With Loving Memories Your Husband Ray & your Children.

Dittmeyer funeral: ‘The healing will not be miraculous or quick’

NAPLES, Maine — Flags in front of the Krista Dittmey-er’s former high school waved at half mast on Monday as friends and family filed into the gym for her funeral.

Her body lay in a closed casket. Cameras weren't allowed, but reporters sat beside mourners in the bleach-ers. More than 300 people filled the Lakes Region High School gym, the gym where Dittmeyer played basketball just a few years ago.

“We are broken-hearted, con-fused,” the Rev. Donald May-berry said, who performed the service. “We will not gloss over the pain. We are mourning the loss of a young daughter, the loss of a sister. Our pain and our suffering, our grief and sorrow and loss are meant to be shared.”

The search for Dittmeyer, 20, began last Saturday after her car was found running with her 14-month-old daughter inside. The child was unin-jured, but there was no sign of Dittmeyer.

Her body was discovered a few days later in a small pond at the base of Cranmore ski

area after four days of search-ing by local, state and federal investigators.

Her autopsy results have not been released — the medi-cal examiner is waiting for the toxicology report to come back — but the case is being treated as a criminal investigation. The state Attorney General’s office took the case over from the Conway Police Department

last Wednesday.No arrests have been made,

but “the police remain actively involved in this investiga-tion,” senior assistant attor-ney general Jane Young said on Tuesday. She was unwill-ing to comment about the case beyond that, she said, in order to preserve the integrity of the investigation. Local authori-ties have said the same thing, directing all comment to the Attorney General’s office.

Dittmeyer’s family, meanwhile, has been left with questions.

“Sadly the healing will not

be miraculous or quick,” May-berry said.

“Who would have thought one little lady could have touched so many hearts,” Kayla Dittmeyer, Krista’s older sister, said through tears. She thanked everyone for coming out in solidarity with her and her family. “This is all we really need: love and support.”

Her father, Larry Shackley Jr., sat in the first row wiping away tears as Kalya gave advice to everyone else in the room.

“Never lie about where you’re going, what you’re doing,” she said. “One little thing can change your life.”

“Rest in peace, little sis,” she said, “my angel forever and always.”

Several of Dittmeyer’s friends also spoke, sharing remembrances of a strong-willed loyal woman, a theme echoed throughout the cer-emony.

“Life with Krista was never dull,” Mayberry said. “She never had an unexpressed thought.”

At the end of the ceremony, pallbearers took the casket out a side door. The family fol-lowed while news photogra-phers waited outside.

HOROSCOPE By Holiday Mathis

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’re sending out all the right signals, and you’ll soon meet your perfect match for business and/or pleasure. Keep your people skills tuned so you can be ready to connect. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Contri-butions that were taken for granted will now be noticed. You’ll be celebrated. Your usual graciousness will be appre-ciated. And if you do something extra, your loved ones will be beside them-selves. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll be in another one of your playful moods. Your affectionate joking will be well received as long as you keep it light and steer clear of truly sensitive triggers. You’ll invigorate a relationship with humor. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your work will be a major source of self-esteem. You don’t mind knocking your-self out to do a good job today, because in the end, you know it will matter. It will be nice to hear the pleased comments. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll be asked to do something you just don’t understand. You need to know the pur-pose and the plan; otherwise, you have a hard time following through. So ask more questions. Don’t act until you “get it.” VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Wish-ing won’t make it so. It’s a start, though -- an indicator of what goals you might be willing to put effort behind. For extra luck, make a declaration to Capricorn or Taurus about what you’ll do. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll be negotiating terms of intimacy. You’ll be deciding whether to hug or shake hands and putting thought into the salutations at the beginning and end of every cor-

respondence. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You stay busy, taking action because you enjoy the feeling of being in motion. This is more than a whirlwind of activity. You are dancing with life, and the two of you make a dashing duo. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll do your best, not because you’re trying to make someone like you or because it’s been suggested that it’s what you should do. You’ll do your best because it’s who you are -- a winner. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Practice will make you better. You’ll fi gure out how to best focus your efforts. It requires humility, honesty and a lack of ego to see the results you’re getting and determine what needs improving. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Gali-leo was arrested for saying the Earth orbits around the sun. One era’s dan-gerous radical is another era’s harmless eccentric. You have some of your own potentially incendiary ideas and must be careful whom you tell. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your responsibilities will be many. Handling them all depends on your level of orga-nization. Make a list and check it twice. Otherwise, something is sure to fall through the cracks. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (May 4). You have big plans for this year, and yet you are still able to live in the moment -- it’s the secret to your perpetual youth. Your visual sense is brilliant, and you put your style stamp on everything in your per-sonal environment, from your clothing to your cooking and your home, inside and out. You share a special bond with Libra and Aquarius people. Your lucky numbers are: 11, 7, 39, 26 and 4.

DEAR ABBY: As children come to their mothers to mend their scraped knees and broken hearts, readers in turn come to you for advice that can mend fractured relationships and save lives. Knowing how much mothers everywhere value your wis-dom, the Food and Drug Administration’s Offi ce of Women’s Health and the Federal Citizen Information Center have cre-ated the Healthy Moms Advice Kit for your readers. It’s fi lled with practical tips on topics such as hay fever, recognizing and conquering depression, keeping food safe, discovering the real differences between name brand and generic drugs and -- every mom’s dream -- learning the secrets of getting a good night’s sleep. Abby, thanks for letting your readers know about the free Healthy Moms Advice Kit, and for being someone we always know we can trust to steer us to the answers we need. -- MARSHA HENDERSON, FDA ASSISTANT COMMIS-SIONER FOR WOMEN’S HEALTH (ACTING) DEAR MARSHA: I’m pleased to help you educate read-ers on these important topics. Every year when I review the advance copies of your kits, I learn something new -- which is why I know they will be helpful to others. Folks, this year’s free smorgasbord of information contains helpful advice on such topics as how to avoid getting sick from restaurant take-out foods, medications and products to avoid during pregnancy, and an enlightening fact sheet on HPV (human papillomavirus), a sexually transmitted disease that, left untreated, can lead to cervical cancer. Did you know

that vaccination with Gardasil can help prevent four types of HPV? I didn’t. And no, you CAN’T get HPV from the vac-cine. Because all the information in these kits has been compiled by the government at taxpayer expense, it’s offered at no cost to you. However, quantities are limited, so don’t wait. Order now. To receive the kits in printed form, send your name and address to Healthy Moms Advice Kit, Pueblo, CO 81009, go online to Publications.USA.gov, or call (888) 8-PUEBLO (that’s (888) 878-3256) weekdays 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Eastern time. You can also read the publications online in PDF format, down-load them to your computer and print them. DEAR ABBY: I had an affair a few years ago that lasted a lot longer than it should have. It ended when my lover, “John,” died unexpectedly. The kicker is I was -- and still am -- married. For the last two years I had wanted to end the rela-tionship, but I couldn’t fi nd the courage to do it on my own. My question is, should I feel guilty for feeling glad that John is dead? I’m glad the affair is fi nally over, but I feel guilty that death is what ended it and that I didn’t have the courage to end it myself. -- CONFLICTED IN SANTA ROSA DEAR CONFLICTED: I don’t think you’re feeling “glad” as much as you’re relieved that John is fi nally out of your life -- even if it was feet fi rst. As to your guilt about not ending the affair, that’s something between you, your religious adviser and your higher power. You’ll have to work it out with one of them, and I’m advising you to start now.

Page 20 — THE BERLIN DAILY SUN, Wednesday, May 4, 2011

Berlin’s CurtisArsenault quiets Gorham bats, 3-1GORHAM -- Junior Curtis Arse-

nault held the Gorham offense to just one run, helping the Berlin boy’s base-ball team to a hard fought 3-1 victory over the Huskies in Gorham Monday. The loss was the fi rst of the year season for Gorham.

It was the classic pitchers’ duel, with Mountie ace, Curtis Arsenault, on the hill for Berlin, and the Huskies countering with senior Doug Willey.

Willey was tough on the Berlin bat-ters, setting down nine Mounties on strikes, allowing four hits, and no free passes in fi ve innings of work. Arse-nault was almost as equally tough, going the distance for Berlin allowing one run on fi ve hits, nine k’s, walking one, and hitting two batters.

The score was dead-locked at 0-0, with Gorham coming to bat in the bottom of the fi fth inning. Cody Gauthier got things started by being credited with a base hit on a cather’s interference call. Sophomore Hunter Lambertson came in to pinch run for Gauthier and was sacrifi ced to second base by teammate Sam Jensen. Fresh-man Tyler Sanschagrin hit a ball that appeared to be headed for the outfi eld. The hard hit grounder went high into the air off of the lip of the infi eld grass and was gathered in by short stop Bryar King. King got Sanschagrin at fi rst base for the second out of the inning, moving Lambertson to third

base. Senior lead-off hitter Brandon Sanschagrin fell behind Arsenault with two quick strikes. The Gorham captain responded by singling sharply to the outfi eld to plate Lambertson, giving the Huskies a 1-0 advantage.

Berlin responded with three runs of their own in the top of the sixth inning off of lefty reliever Gauthier. Singles by Ryan Fortin and Arsenault and then an intentional walk to King, loaded the bases for the Mounties with no one out. Senior Eric Godin hit a sacri-fi ce fl y to tie the game at 1-1. A stolen base by Arsenault put the Berlin run-ners at second and third base. On the next pitch, Arsenault scored on a pass ball and when Mountie junior Zach Bacon singled to plate King, Berlin was up 3-1.

Arsenault got out of hot water in the bottom of the sixth inning. Arsenault utilized a key strike out with Huskies at second and third base, denying the Gorham boys a chance to get back in the game.

Berlin went 1,2,3 in the top of the seventh inning. Arsenault set down the fi rst two Gorham hitters on strike outs in the bottom of the sev-enth. Gorham’s Brandon Sanschagrin clouted a long double to deep center fi eld, to keep Gorham’s hopes alive. However, red hot Huskie hitter, Pat Pike, stroked a hard hit grounder, that Berlin third baseman Elijah Hawkins ranged to his left and grabbed onto. Hawkins threw a strike to fi rst base

getting the speedy Pike and ending the game 3-1 for Berlin.

Sanschagrin and Pike had two hits for the Huskies, while Arsenault was a repeat hit getter for the visiting Mountaineers.

Berlin’s next game will be against White Mountain Regional on Wednes-day. The Huskies will host Littleton

on Tuesday, Woodsville on Wednesday, and travel to undefeated Colebrook on Thursday.
