Council wants to see easement on Mt. JasperBERLIN – Plans to protect the summit of Mt.

Jasper took another turn this week when the city council decided it wanted to see the fi nal easement before making any commitment.

Sally Manikian and Larry Kelly of Tri-County Community Action Program came before the council with a resolution approving a draft easement and authorizing the planning board to work with CAP in developing the specifi cs of the easement. The ease-ment would prohibit development on the city-owned mountain. Public access would continue and the easement would spell out future care and mainte-nance of the historic site.

CAP has agreed to hold the easement and monitor

the property to make sure all requirements are met. The city would continue to own the land.

Attending the council work session were two skeptics of the easement, Barry Kelley and Tony Urban. Kelley stressed he is not against putting an easement on the property but described himself as “guarded” about the idea. He said he understood after the last planning board meeting on Mt. Jasper that a citizen steering committee was going to be formed to work on it.

Manikian said that is still the plan but the idea was to make sure the council supports an easement before spending the time and money to draft a fi nal document. She said the draft easement would go to the steering committee, which would fi nalize the language. Lawyers for both the city and CAP would

review the easement.

Mayor Paul Grenier said the council was ner-vous and wanted a last opportunity to review the fi nal language. Councilor Bob Danderson said he is totally against putting an easement on the property. He said Mt. Jasper is not costing the city any money. Danderson said he sees no reason to give away some of the city’s authority over the site. Councilor Lucie Remillard said she thought asking the council to approve a draft easement now was putting the cart before the horse. She said since an easement is per-manent, it is important it be done properly.

Remillard said she could see both sides of the issue. Why, she asked, should the city restrict its ownership

Action plan for revitalizing the downtown discussedBERLIN – Revitalizing the downtown is the next

focus of the city planning department and the Main Street Program.

City Planner Pamela Lafl amme updated both the city council and planning board this week on plans to hire a consultant to develop an action plan for the downtown.

She reminded the council that one of the prime

recommendations of the city’s newly completed master plan was to focus on redeveloping the down-town. The N.H. Grand Branding Initiative also iden-tifi ed Berlin as the obvious place to develop as the market place for the county.

Lafl amme said both she and Main Street offi -cials feel it important to work with a consultant to develop a master plan to guide the city in moving forward with the downtown.

She stressed the plan will address both the eco-

nomics and aesthetics of the downtown. It will include a design strategy for the actual streetscape with one idea to create a campus-like feel to the downtown.

Lafl amme said the economic development compo-nent will look at the market potential, type of busi-nesses to attract, how to compete against the big box retail outlets, and identify strategic opportunities for Berlin’s downtown.

tools have two edges

SAYWHAT...I promise you a police car on

every sidewalk.”—Marion Berry

(NY Times) — Offi cer Trey Economidy of the Albu-querque police now realizes that he should have thought harder before listing his occu-pation on his Facebook profi le as “human waste disposal.”

After he was involved in a fatal on-duty shooting in February, a local television station dug up the Facebook page. Offi cer Economidy was placed on desk duty, and last month the Albuquerque Police Department announced a new policy to govern offi cers’ use of social networking sites.

Social networking tools like Facebook and Twitter can be valuable assets for law enforcement agencies, helping them alert the public, seek information about crimes and gather evidence about the backgrounds of criminal suspects. But the Internet can also get police departments into trouble.

Public gaffes like Econo-midy’s — his cynical job description on Facebook was “extremely inappropriate and a lapse in judgment on my part,” he said last week in an e-mail — are only one of the risks. A careless posting on a networking site, experts say, can endanger an offi -cer’s safety, as it did in Santa Monica, Calif., last year when the Police Department went to great lengths to conceal a wounded offi cer’s identity and location, only to have a retired offi cer inadvertently reveal them on Facebook.

ZUEITINA, Libya (NY Times) — Air-strikes on a rebel convoy killed fi ve people on Thursday, several rebel fi ghters said, raising the possibility that for the second time in less than a week NATO warplanes might have mistakenly attacked rebels on the ground.

While some rebels said they thought the attack might have been carried out by a plane belonging to the forces

of Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi, the com-mander of rebel forces, Abdel Fattah Younes, said it seemed to be a case of “friendly fire.”

Speaking at a news conference in the rebel capital of Benghazi, he said the rebels accepted that mistakes can happen in the jumbled circumstances of the war but would like an explanation from NATO, which assumed control of the air campaign

over the weekend.“We are not questioning the intention of

NATO, because they should be here to help us and the civilians, but we would like to receive some answers regarding what hap-pened today,” Mr. Younes said.

A NATO offi cial in Brussels said that the organization was looking into the rebels’ account but did not have enough informa-tion to comment as yet.

TOKYO (NY Times) — The stron-gest aftershock to hit since the day of the March 11 earthquake and tsunami in Japan rocked a wide section of the country’s northeast Thursday night, prompting a tsu-nami alert, raising fears of further damage to the crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant and knocking out external power at three other nuclear facilities.

The public broadcaster, NHK, said there were local reports of injuries, fi res and blackouts. The aftershock had a magnitude of 7.1, according to

the United States Geological Survey; last month’s quake, which devas-tated much of the northeastern coast, was measured at 9.0.

The tsunami alert, which warned of waves of up to three feet and possibly higher in some areas, was lifted after about an hour and a half, and the ’Japan Meteoro-logical Agency said no tsunami had been detected. But the agency warned that slight changes in sea level were still possible, and it was unclear whether there was any damage along the coast.

Aftershock complicates Japan’s nuclear efforts WASHINGTON (NY Times) — The House voted 255 to 172

on Thursday to halt the Obama administration’s program to regulate industrial air emissions that are contributing to cli-mate change, delivering a stinging blow to a central tenet of the president’s energy and environmental policy.

Nineteen Democrats joined virtually all Republicans in approving a bill that bars the Environmental Protection Agency from acting on that carbon dioxide and other green-house gases endanger human health and the environment. The measure also nullifi es a 2007 Supreme Court ruling that gave the agency the authority to issue regulations to curb those emissions.

President Obama has threatened to veto any measure that hinders the administration’s efforts to restrict emissions that scientists say are warming the atmosphere and leading to unpredictable and potentially devastating changes in the global climate.

Reporter from N.H. taken prisoner in Libya

BOSTON — The Boston-based Glo-balPost says it has been informed that one of its American freelance con-tributors has been taken prisoner by forces loyal to Libyan leader Moam-mar Gadhafi .

Spokesman Rick Byrne said Glo-balPost was told Thursday by the New York-based Human Rights Watch that James Foley, of Roch-ester, and three other foreign jour-nalists were taken captive Tuesday evening while they were reporting on the outskirts of Brega.

“Their vehicle was shelled or rocketed or whatever,” said Foley’s father, John Foley. “They stopped the vehicle, and didn’t know where the blasts were coming from. As soon as the vehicle stopped, the Libyan Army Group dragged him out of the car.”

John Foley said he and his wife, Diane, learned about noon Thursday that their son had been captured.

The Foleys said they are in close contact with their son’s employers and

experts with Human Rights Watch. So far, what they have heard about previ-ous releases of captured journalists in Libya has them optimistic.

“I’m very hopeful,” Diane Foley said. “We’ve got a lot of good people praying, the whole family’s praying, got a big prayer chain -- lots of people. So I am hopeful, and I just pray that Jimmy can feel that hope, too.”

Byrne said editors at the website, which focuses on international report-ing, last heard from Foley on Monday evening. Byrne said Foley regularly contributes videos and dispatches from the scene.

Philip Balboni, GlobalPost CEO and president, said in a statement the news organization has asked the Libyan foreign media offi ce for the immediate release of Foley and the other detained journalists.

John and Diane Foley said they have been told that the Libyan loyal-ists grant captives a call home, so they will be waiting by the phone.

“We will not be able to move the bus until everyone has fastened their seat belt,” our tour guide said. “Believe me, on this trip, it will be for everyone’s safety. You’ll soon understand why.”

Satisfi ed that her instructions had been followed by all on the bus, she signaled the driver to go, and our bus began to move out, one of six that would be making the journey to Norway’s scenic North Cape. Our adven-ture had begun.

Norway in March looks and feels very much like the New Hampshire North Country where we live, especially so the farther north one journeys. The view from our bus window revealed a landscape covered with snow and ice, and a swirling wind that could chill right through our layers of clothing.

At fi rst, we traveled on a reasonably clear main highway. But, as we neared the side road that would take us to the North Cape, we could see a sizeable truck with a sizeable plow blade on its front. The plow would lead the six-bus convoy the rest of the way to its destination. We knew now why we were all wearing seat belts. A story our guide would tell us on the way back out left no doubt of that necessity.

Norway’s North Cape (Nordkapp) is one of its must-see attractions. Each year, some quarter-of-a-million visitors make their way to this remarkable, often wind-swept vista that was once thought to be the most northerly point in Europe. Actually, North Cape and the point that is the northern-most in Europe are both located on islands. The northernmost point located on mainland Europe is Cape Nordkinn.

No matter. Standing on the plateau that is 1,007 feet above the Arctic Ocean, the visi-tor does indeed feel that he or she is stand-ing at the very edge of the world. The view in the summer season must be spectacular. But winter visitors do not go away disappointed. The snow and the ice offer their own version of the beautiful.

After spending some time on the chilly, wind-swept plateau, taking in its magnifi cent vista and photographing the North Globe and other structures, while trying to hold our cameras steady enough to get some decent

pictures, it’s time to retreat to the North Cape Hall, much of which is constructed below ground. The hall is a 16,000 square feet round, domed structure that houses a gift shop; a place to get a bite to eat; a non-denominational chapel that is often used for weddings; and several displays appropriate to the Cape area. One of the most memora-ble is that of the Murmansk Run, which is a tribute to the many vessels and the men who manned them, who made the highly danger-ous voyage to the Russian Port of Murmansk, bringing desperately needed cargoes of muni-tions and food to the beleaguered nation that was making such a courageous stand against the might of the German Wehrmacht in World War II.

The Hall also houses a cinema that shows a 14-minute fi lm, projected on a 220” semi-circular screen, depicting life on this seem-ingly inhospitable part of our globe. There is no narration. There is none needed. The pictures and the accompanying music are all that is needed. Even the music is superfl u-ous. The visitor comes away shaking the head in wonder at the hardiness of the life forms that somehow survive and call this harsh place home.

One place we could not get to is the sculp-ture park, which is located farther east on the Cape. Here, in 1988, seven children from seven different countries created and erected a display of seven reliefs. Their subject? Peace on Earth. (Perhaps, someday, their dream will be realized.)

But now, it is time for us to go. Our bus will lead the convoy back to the main road that will take us back to our ship, appropriately named the MS Nordkapp. We take our place behind the huge snow plow, and the slow journey back begins.

Only now does our tour guide give us the rest of the story about the necessity of the seat belts. Just the week before our trek to the North Cape, another group found itself stranded on the Cape for eleven hours. On their journey back, the wind had been so strong that it had blown a couple of the buses off the road. No one was seriously injured, and, fortunately, the group was able to return

My response to Marc Tremblay’s letterTo the editor:Well Marc, fi rst I would

like to say I do not thank you for voting against the North Country in your support of the Republi-can House budget. When I spoke to you, you indicated to me you wanted to sup-port your constituency. Well, guess what you didn’t. Coos County has the largest per capita elder population in the state. Shame on you for voting against your most vulnerable constituents.

The second thing I would like to say to you about Union busting. The Union

brought us fair wages, a 40 hour work week and the weekend. Those who forget history are condemned to relive it and I think you are among the ones who forgot. If your parents worked for the mills the Union brought them up out poverty from Canada for after all that’s why your people came to Berlin as did mine. I am very disappointed in you. You should not be proud to be our state representa-tive. You did us wrong and betrayed us.

P & L Auto Parts thanks you for supportTo the editor:We would like to express

our gratitude to the com-munity, on behalf of the employees of P&L Auto Parts, for their support and generosity. As you know we had a fi re on January 31, that almost completely destroyed our business. Because of the quick response from the Berlin fi refi ghters, we were able to salvage part of the business and be able to continue to service the community. Had they not responded as rapidly as they did we most likely would have lost everything. We feel that the fi refi ghters did everything they could with the limited resources

they had to prevent a total loss. They went above and beyond the call of duty as many stopped in over the next few days to offer help and check all us. We appreciate it!

We would like to thank the many local businesses and business owners and individuals that showed up to lend a hand and con-tinue to help us get our operation back to normal.

Also, to our family and friends for providing the moral support and under-standing

through everything, thank you! Our sincerest thanks to everyone.

to the warmth and comfort of the North Cape Hall, while additional drivers were called to work and a replacement set of buses fi nally able to be sent out. (The stranded visitors were served what the Hall had avail-able – largely waffl es, our guide told us.) Their ship, of course, had to wait for them all this time, as what should

have been a three-and-a-hour shore excursion had turned in what must have seemed like an interminable eleven.

I think we all breathed a sigh of relief and our bodies lost some of their tenseness when our buses reached the relative safety of the main road. Our North Cape Adventure had indeed been one that we will long remember.

ADVENTURE from page 4

Photography by Lynda Thayer featured at AVH Hospital Art Gallery

BERLIN -- An outstanding exhibit of photography by Lynda Thayer is currently on display at AVH, as part of the hospital auxiliary’s on-going Rotat-ing Art Program.

Lynda is a professional photogra-pher and an employee at AVH. Her love for the beauty in nature is well represented in this fi ne display of wild-life in natural settings.

She rarely goes anywhere without her camera close by her side. “You never know when the opportunity to get a great shot will come along,” she said.

Wildlife is the subject of her choice, however, anything that she fi nds inter-esting will also be photographed.

“People ask me,” says Lynda, “why do I keep taking photos of the same thing. The answer is, I may get an even better shot.” She has found that the age of the digital camera has saved a lot of work and money over the use of fi lm.

“Since I was a child, I always liked to take pictures. In 2005, armed with a new digital camera and encouraged by my long time friend, Nancy Hart, I began to show my photos,” Lynda said. Her friend, Nancy, encouraged her to enter a photo of a family of Loons in her fi rst ever contest. That photo the photo took 3rd place in the competi-tion. In addition, the photo also was used to help raise funds for the 5 Kezar Ponds Watershed Association.

During the summer, Lynda lives on the 5 Kezar Ponds. This is where she takes many of her photos. Often, these photos are taken while she is sitting in her Hobie kayak.

Lynda said, “This past summer, my photos graced the cover of a cookbook and this coming summer they will be used in a calendar.” Both of these activities are for the purpose of raising

money for charity.As a photographer, she is thrilled

when taking pictures of Moose. She fi nds it hard to locate them and to get a good picture is a real joy. Often she will take hundreds of shots and only will get a couple that meet her standards of a quality photo.

Her fi rst paid work will be come in July when she will be giving a presen-tation of her moose photos that she has taken in the Success Loop. This presentation will take place at the Greater Lovell Land Trust in Lovell, Maine, on July 27.

During the past 42 years she has been a devoted nurse. When she does retire, she wishes to increase the time spent as a photographer.

These outstanding works by Lynda Thayer will be on display during the month of April. AVH is extremely lucky to have some of her photo talents on display in the Auxiliary Rotating Arts Program, said auxiliary offi cials.

Each month, the AVH Auxiliary Rotating Art Program features an artist and his/her respective works for public viewing inside AVH. The dis-play is located in the Cafeteria, giving guests an opportunity to enjoy a meal while admiring the art work.

If you are (or know of) an artist of photography, original painting, or other types of art, and would like to have the work on display for a period of time in the AVH Auxiliary Art Gal-lery, you are welcome to call Edwina Keene, AVH volunteer coordinator, at 326-5676. Currently the hospital is accepting booking for 2012. If you have booked for a display this year, please call for confi rmation.

For more information concerning the AVH Auxiliary Rotating Art Program, please contact Keene at 326-5676.

After a long, dark winter, spring's bright sun and warm winds are, well, a breath of fresh air. The only down-side? All that sunshine spotlights your leaf-fi lled gutters, cracked side-walks and the dead plants in last year's fl ower beds. Dwight Barnett, a certifi ed master inspector with the American Society of Home Inspec-tors, shared this checklist to help you target the areas that need mainte-nance so you can get your chores done quickly, leaving you time to go outside and play in the sunshine.

* Check for loose or leaky gutters. Improper drainage can lead to water in the basement or crawl space. Make sure downspouts drain away from the foundation and are clear and free of debris.

* Low areas in the yard or next to the foundation should be fi lled with compacted soil. Spring rains can cause yard fl ooding, which can lead to foundation fl ooding and damage. Also, when water pools in these low areas in summer, it creates a breeding ground for insects.

* Use a screwdriver to probe the wood trim around windows, doors, railings and decks. Make repairs

now before the spring rains do more damage to the exposed wood.

* From the ground, examine roof shingles to see if any were lost or dam-aged during winter. If your home has an older roof covering, you may want to start a budget for replacement. The summer sun can really damage roof shingles. Shingles that are cracked, buckled or loose or are missing gran-ules need to be replaced. Flashing around plumbing vents, skylights and chimneys need to be checked and repaired by a qualifi ed roofer.

* Examine the exterior of the chim-ney for signs of damage. Have the fl ue cleaned and inspected by a certifi ed chimney sweep.

* Inspect concrete slabs for signs of cracks or movement. All exterior slabs except pool decks should drain away from the home's foundation. Fill cracks with a concrete crack fi ller or silicone caulk. When weather permits, power-wash and then seal the con-crete.

* Remove fi rewood stored near the home. Firewood should be stored at least 18 inches off the ground at least 2 feet from the structure.

* Check outside hose faucets for

Ten home-maintenance tips for springfreeze damage. Turn the water on and place your thumb or fi nger over the opening. If you can stop the fl ow of water, it is likely the pipe inside the home is damaged and will need to be replaced. While you're at it, check the garden hose for dry rot.

* Have a qualifi ed heating and cooling contractor clean and service the outside unit of the air condition-

ing system. Clean coils operate more effi ciently, and an annual service call will keep the system working at peak performance levels. Change interior fi lters on a regular basis.

* Check your gas- and battery-pow-ered lawn equipment to make sure it is ready for summer use. Clean equip-ment and sharp cutting blades will make yardwork easier.

It was one of those moments that make a parent smile. When Meri-K Appy visited her oldest son at college recently, a friend of his mentioned that after a stairway light fi xture was discovered broken, her son was quick to report it. That concern for safety had special meaning to Appy. As presi-dent of the Home Safety Council, she knows that unlighted stairwells can lead to backbreaking falls.

Here are some tips from Appy for making your home a safer place.

Q: What is the state of home safety in America?

A: In terms of unintentional inju-ries, it’s worse than most people real-ize. Every year there are some 21 million injuries and almost 20,000 deaths. It’s what we’re calling a “quiet crisis” in America. So many of the things we’d like to fi x in the world are too daunting; when it comes to home safety, that’s not the case. There’s a lot an individual can do that can make a

a difference. Our motto is “A safe home is in your hands.”

Q: What causes most home injuries?A: Falls — and by a wide margin. The very young

and the very old are at greatest risk.Q: What can homeowners do?A: Make sure stairwells and pathways are well-

lighted. Stairways should have railings. If there’s a young child in the home, be adamant about using safety gates at both top and bottom of stairs. Move furniture away from windows. Understand that a screen won’t protect a child from a fall. Install window guards, but keep in mind you always want to have one window that can be opened in case of a fi re.

Many products include safety features; for instance, high chairs have safety straps. Don’t over-

ride safety features by ignoring them.If kids have an outdoor playset, be sure it has a

soft landing. There should be 9 to 12 inches of pro-tective surface that extends 6 feet around the equip-ment. You can use materials like wood mulch and pea gravel; there’s also a synthetic rubberized mate-rial now available.

For all age groups: Install grab bars in shower and tub areas. Some people think they’re ugly but there are models that blend with the decor. Also, use slip-resistant mats.

For older people: Remove throw rugs or affi x them well using double-sided tape. But not having them is even better. If an older person is taking four or more medications, that can infl uence their stability. Ask questions of medical experts about an older person’s propensity to fall. Lower-extremity strength train-ing can be good. There is some thinking that tai chi can be benefi cial. Also consider universal design and think about the future: living in a home on one level, for instance.

Q: What’s another danger in the home?

A: Poisoning. There are 2.3 million poisonings reported every year. More than half are children under 6.

Q: What can be done?A: Look around your home. Read labels on clean-

ing fl uids under the kitchen sink, in the bathroom and the garage. Look for labels with the words “cau-tion,” “warning” or “danger.” Items like drain open-ers, oven cleaners, auto fl uids, antifreeze — but it can be anything — cosmetics, medication, vitamins that contain iron can be dangerous to a young child. Use child-resistant locks and control access to dan-gerous products.

Q: What’s the most dangerous room in the home?A: (Different rooms are) dangerous for different

age groups. For young children, the most dangerous room is a room with no adult in it. About one-third of drownings are in bathrooms. For a baby, even a couple of inches of water can be deadly.

Q: What do pool owners need to know?A: When people think of a drowning, they think of

of someone fl ailing away. Drowning is silent and it happens suddenly. Children have to be supervised. Only one thing has proven to prevent pool drownings: a 5-foot-high fence with a self-closing and latching gate. A slid-ing door doesn’t count.

Q: When should parents start talk-ing with their kids about home safety?

A: From the very earliest moments. When you’re teaching a toddler what’s hot or what isn’t, you’re teaching them about making choices. That’s what safety is all about: making choices

about what is safe and what isn’t.Q: What’s one easy thing homeown-

ers can do to improve safety in their home?

A: There are several. Walk through your home. Look for things that have warning labels on them and lock them out of sight of children. Test smoke alarms and conduct a home fi re drill. Remove clutter around pathways. Call a fencing company if you have an unprotected swimming pool. Check your water heater and set it at 120 degrees to prevent scald-ing.

HOROSCOPE By Holiday Mathis

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Some-one will copy what you do. This should be fl attering to you -- imitation is the most sincere kind of compliment. Still, it is important that you take control of what is yours, especially in regard to intellectual property. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You want a person to want you. You can’t force this to happen, but you will make it happen through the art of persuasion. It starts with believing in yourself and feeling whole and complete on your own. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Con-tribute the best of your talent, and another person will do the same. You will fast become partners, and an easy collaboration ensues. Both parties will feel heard, understood and valued. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You keep your promises to people. This comes easily to you because it’s the right thing to do. Because others know what they can consistently expect from you, they keep coming back. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You will get what you desire for one reason only: someone else wants to help you and sees great reward in doing so. Your enthusiasm makes it a pleasure for others to assist you. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There’s a right way to do things and a wrong way. Playing by the rules, you’ll rise through the professional or social ranks quickly enough. Therefore, don’t even bother looking for shortcuts today. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Find a quiet place where you can concentrate. You will take your work and studies to a new level in this environment. As an added bonus, a relationship improves because of what you learn today.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’ll make a meaningful, powerful connec-tion when you communicate face to face. Send your intention through your eyes right into the eyes and heart of the one you want to infl uence. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You will feel pulled toward community-building deeds. You’ll do your best work in a diverse group. Ask someone from another department, generation or culture to join you in a service project. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You are still puzzled over an event in your family history. Did it really happen as others said it did, or is the memory tainted by the hopes and beliefs of those who remember it? Investigate further. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Knowledge that has been handed down cannot be verifi ed as of yet. Still, you feel the truth in your bones. Act on what you know. You’ll bond with others who share your beliefs. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Who is better qualifi ed than you to enhance your reputation? You’ll fi nd a not so obvious way to get the story started about who you are and what you’ve accomplished. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (April 8). Your intuitive inklings, especially about people, will be correct. This month presents the opportunity to bet on a hunch and win. May brings change and travel. In June, a person in need brings out divine levels of compassion in you. There’s a professional gain in July that allows you to assist your family. Aquar-ius and Pisces people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 25, 12, 33 and 30.

DEAR ABBY: My son has refused to speak to me ever again because his girlfriend asked me if he had another child from a previous relationship. I didn’t think it was right to lie to her, so I told her the truth about his daughter. My son called me yesterday and told me I was “dead to him” and he never wants to see me again. I feel so guilty having betrayed him. I’m not sure how to make amends with my son. Abby, can you help me? -- SAD MOM IN OHIO DEAR MOM: Your son may have preferred his girlfriend be kept in the dark about his daughter, but if the girlfriend didn’t have some strong suspicions, she would not have raised the subject with you. Frankly, I admire you for telling the truth and not going along with your son’s deception. I’m not sure how you should “make amends” with your son. He is the one who should be making amends with you. His lack of character is lamentable. DEAR ABBY: My wife has been out of work for four months. Last week she applied for a job at a loan offi ce. Dur-ing the interview, she learned it was a payday loan operation, and she would be expected to get people to sign up for loans they could not afford. This goes against our principles. We have seen family members caught in payday loan schemes that buried them in debt, and we fi nd the whole industry to be immoral and abhorrent. My wife is currently receiving unemployment compensa-tion. One of the rules of unemployment is, if a company offers you work, you must accept it. She said if she knew what the position entailed, she would not have applied. Now she is terrifi ed she may be offered a position in a business she fi nds repugnant, but she may not be able to decline the offer. What

can she do? Please answer fast! -- STUCK FOR AN ANSWER IN KANSAS CITY DEAR STUCK FOR AN ANSWER: Your wife should con-tact the payday loan company and tell them she is not inter-ested in the position before she gets an offer. That way, she won’t be breaking any rules, and the company can hire a will-ing applicant. DEAR ABBY: I have an issue regarding my 18-year-old son, “Jake.” His father and I divorced several years ago -- am-icably for the most part. Since then, and even before, Jake has had emotional problems. My son makes up stories about himself. On one of his on-line social network sites he has been talking about a vehicle he doesn’t own. He even invited a friend to go four-wheeling with him in his nonexistent vehicle. This is only one of many lies Jake has told. When I call him on it, he admits it but says it’s “no big deal.” Abby, people believe what my son is telling them. What is going on, and what can I do? -- CARING PARENT, LITTLE-TON, COLO. DEAR CARING PARENT: Your son may lie in order to im-press others, or be so emotionally troubled that he can’t tell the difference between what he fantasizes and what is real. I assume that because Jake has had emotional diffi culties for some time that he has been under the care of a therapist. If so, contact the therapist and explain what’s going on. If Jake doesn’t have a therapist, fi nd one. Perhaps an intervention will help Jake. If the lying persists, your son will become increasingly isolated as it gets out that no one can believe a word he says.

ownership rights. But, she said she does want to see the property protected for future generations. Councilor Mike Rozek asked about snowmobile trails on the property. Manikian said the snow-mobile trails are outside the easement area as is some land the school district wants to retain for possible future use.

Manikian said CAP was willing to go the other way and work with the plan-ning board and citizens’ steering com-mittee to draft a fi nal version to bring to the council. Kelly said he is interested in putting together a compromise that makes everyone comfortable.

Councilor Tom McCue made a motion to have the planning board work with CAP, the steering committee, and the

public to draft and develop an ease-ment for Mt. Jasper. The easement would then come before the council for approval. The motion passed with only Danderson voting against it.

At the planning board meeting Tues-day, the board agreed to invite inter-ested citizens to next month’s meeting to discuss Mt. Jasper at and get the steering committee going.

Owned by the city, Mt. Jasper is used on a regular basis by hikers and walk-ers. There is no maintained trail or usage policy for the 2,068-foot moun-tain. The mountain is listed on the National Register of Historic Places because of its use by Native Americans as a source of rhyolite to make knives and scrappers.

She estimated the action plan will cost $100,000 and take up to 15 months to complete. The city has just received a $55,000 grant from the Neil and Louise Tillotson Fund for the project. Public Service of N.H. has pledged $5,000 and is willing to donate another $5,000 to include the Tondreau Park in the plan. The Main Street Program is putting up $5,000. Lafl amme asked the council Monday night for permission to use $10,000 left over from the master plan for the downtown project. The council was supportive and scheduled a public hearing on the transfer of funds for April 18.

While short of the full amount, Lafl amme said her offi ce and the Main Street Program were able to break the work into phases with the

most important pieces up front. The parties can look for additional funding once the project is underway.

Lafl amme said she and Sylvia Poulin of the Main Street Program want to start work immediately on a request for qualifi cations to advertise for consultants. She said she envi-sions the consultant selected will include both a landscape architect and an economic development expert.

A steering committee is being put together to assist in developing the plan using the same process the city following with the master plan. The committee will include represen-tatives from city council, planning board, Main Street Program, Public Service, WREN, three downtown business owners, and the Berlin Industrial Development and Park Authority.

Berlin girl’s tennis team opens season with shutout over Timberwolves, 7-0

ALTON BAY -- The Berlin girls’ tennis team, under the guidance of head coach Patty Hood, took to the courts for the fi rst time Wednesday, defeating Prsopect Mountain 7-0 in a rain shortened Division III game at Alton Bay.

In singles action, top seeded Moriah Arsenault of Berlin beat Casan-dra Russell 8-0, #2 seed Al Aldrich shut out Timberwolve Sarah Clif-ford 8-0, and senior Felicia Arsenault cruised past Stephanie Pryor 8-1. The Lady Mountaineers stayed on a roll. Mountie Kathryn Record swatted her way by Fallon Rouleau 8-0, Staci Beaudoin won over Prospect’s Erin Surd 8-1, and #6 seed Miriam Arse-nault defeated Shayna Sweeney 8-0.

The match was in hand as Berlin

began doubles play. Top Berlin duo Moriah Arsenault and Al Aldrich worked their way by Casandra Rus-sell and Sarah Clifford 8-2. The spring weather reared its ugly head, forcing the stoppage of the remaining two #2 & #3 doubles, because of the rain. The Lady Mounties were in control of the two matches, #2 Felicia Arsenault and Kathryn Record were up on Prospect’s Stephanie Pryor & Fallon Rouleau (Winning 4-2) and #3 Staci Beaudoin and Emily Ploudre were rolling past the Timberwolve’s Erin Sund and Shayna Sweeney (Winning 3-0).

“The girls played well considering it was our fi rst day outside,” stated Coach Hood. “It was the fi rst varsity single matches for Kathryn Record, Staci Beaudoin, and Miriam Arse-nault. I was extremely pleased to open up with a win.”

a block party like no other. WING-ZILLA is a BBQ Chicken Wing Com-petition and Blind Draw Horseshoe Tournament. An excellent group of friendly but serious and determined horseshoe throwers participates in one of the biggest horseshoe tourna-ments in the area. Many potential barbecue competitors are talking of dethroning Mark Belanger. Mark won fi rst prize with his unbeatable BBQ Chicken Wing recipe running three years in a row. One can expect several BBQ competitors this year as Mark is defi antly daring anybody to beat his wings! All are invited to enter their favorite Chicken Wing BBQ Recipe for a chance to win the $200 top prize! In addition there will be a beer tent all day. The block party will continue into the evening with a local popular band, “Plan B”, playing the most popular and favorite songs. Plan B will start playing at 5:30.

The 12th Annual Lumberjack Com-petition and Festival is scheduled for October 2. Last year’s event drew approximately 50 lumberjack and lumberjill competitors from Minne-sota, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont and Canada. More events have been added for the women and a brand new event, the standing chop block, will debut at this year’s festival. Attend-ees will be treated to fast, friendly and determined competition! This year the general public will be invited to participate in the open stock saw

competition. For those attending the lumberjack competition NFHP will offer the log toss for men and fry pan toss for women, cash prizes will be awarded to the winners. All are invited to throw their best! As always NFHP will feature its delicious Bean-Hole-Beans along with a traditional lumberjack menu.

On October 22, NFHP joins forces with the Androscoggin Valley Cham-ber of Commerce, Berlin Main Street Program and Theatre North to proudly present a blockbuster event, RIVER FIRE! Named the Best of NH 2007, River Fire continues to grow in popularity! Theatre North presents Horror Fest, a haunted logging village. A thrilling and chilling experience you will not want to miss! View imagina-tive and intricately carved pumpkins displayed on the walking bridge the likes of which you haven’t seen. The Historical Boom Piers on the Andro-scoggin River are carefully prepared to provide a spectacular exhibit that lights up the sky as dusk settles in upon the river, truly a magnifi cent sight to behold.

On December 10, NFHP presents the Cultural Christmas Festival in cooperation with Theatre North. Christmas is the most magical time of the year; the holiday itself cen-ters on the most wondrous story ever told. This story has inspired count-less other stories of holiday miracles. Long before the advent of motion pictures and television, the magic of Christmas was shared with the world

NFHP from page 22 through the written word of such clas-sics as O. Henry’s Gift of the Magi and Dickens’ A Christmas Carol. In the spirit of those classic Christmas tales, Northern Forest Heritage Park proudly presents Dickens’ Christ-mas as told by the players of Theatre North. NFHP and TN hopes that this play brightens the holiday and helps one to rediscover the spirit of Christmas... when miracles happen and dreams come true.

It is not unusual to view the ador-able lion headed bunnies, goats, miniature horse, llamas and the area’s own Alpacas! The Roy Family Farm and the Hampshire Highland Alpaca Farm of Milan take time out of their busy schedules to bring their beautiful animals to NFHP for everyone to enjoy. NFHP’s River Boat Tours leave the docks Tues-day through Saturday at 2 p.m. On the days of NFHP events the River Boat Tours are available at specially reduced prices all day long. Typical at most of the NFHP events you will

fi nd mouth watering hamburgers, hot dogs, French fries, fried dough, ice cream, soft drinks and on some occasions NFHP is pleased to pro-vide beer and wine as well. Alcohol is always served in strict accordance within the laws of the State of NH and the rules and regulations of the NH Liquor Commission.

The above listed events are orga-nized by NFHP or in collaboration with their partners. Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond any-one’s control, NFHP and Theatre North are disappointed to announce the cancelling of this year’s Cabin Fever Production scheduled for April 30. Theatre North and NFHP regret any inconvenience this may have caused. There are mancamp’s bunk-house and cookhouse are available for private parties, director of NFHP, encourages people to call 603-752-7202 for more information. Huot also suggests folks visit the NFHP website at; www.northernforesther-itage.org for current information.
