Water Works gets approval for addition, new garage BY BARBARA TETREAULT THE BERLIN DAILY SUN
BERLIN – The planning board Tuesday night gave site plan approval to Berlin Water Works’ proposal to build an addition to its office building and construct a new maintenance garage at its Willow Street location. Representing Water Works, Jay Poulin, of HEB Engineering, said the project will include a 950-square foot addition to the back of the present office building. He said the addition will allow the building to meet handicap accessibility codes and provide some needed space. Customer service operations will be moved into the new space, right off a new main entrance. The new handicap accessible entrance will be on
the same side of the building as the former M&M garage that is now the property of Water Works. By relocating the main entrance, the project will improve traffic safety. Instead of backing out onto Willow Street as is currently the case, customers will go around a traffic island and drive into traffic. The current entrance will be reserved for use by department foremen. Because the main entrance is being moved, a big section of curb cut will be eliminated on Willow Street and replaced with granite curbing. Not only will the building be handicap accessible, but Water Works is also focusing on energy efficiency with new windows, doors, and added insulation. The site plan also call for replacing oil heat with pro-
pane. The current maintenance building, which is in poor condition, will be demolished and replaced with a prefab metal building. The orientation of the garage will be rotated 90 degrees on the lot. Poulin said Water Works wants to improve the appearance of the property and will do some landscaping. “We’re looking at the aesthetics of the entire property,” he said. Another goal of Water Works is to make the entire complex energy neutral by installing solar panels to generate enough power to offset energy usage. Poulin noted there are grant monies available for energy improvements that Water Works hopes to tap into for the project. see APPROVAL page 11

GORHAM—If Michelle Naylor had her druthers, she would be planning to dance until the small hours this Saturday at the West Milan Town Hall where the Spring Road Band will be rocking from 8 p.m. on, with guest appearances by renowned fiddler and all around musician, Patrick Ross. Michelle will be there because she loves the music, but she doesn’t feel much like dancing these days. She has polycystic kidney disease. The dance is a benefit, designed to help Michelle with her medical expenses and to let more people know that she needs a kidney transplant as soon as possible.

N.H. Highway Safety approved a $4,800 grant for OHRV enforcement for the department. The police department previously relied on funding from N.H. Fish and Game for OHRV enforcement but the pool of funds available has been shrinking. Valerino said he was happy to see these funds become available to fund OHRV enforcement.
He said the $4,800 would cover enforcement along the connector trail through the city rather than on the park trails. He added the majority of OHRV complaints come from the trail through the city. Commissioner Tony Urban pointed out that the grant funds are contingent on the staffing levels at the department remainsee OHRV page 7

Master of his web domain (NY Times) — Over the course of a comedy career of 36 years and counting and 9 seasons of a singularly influential sitcom, Jerry Seinfeld has built a vast repository of stand-up material but was never truly master of his domain, in the online sense. That will change on Friday with the debut of his website, JerrySeinfeld.com, an online home for video of nearly every recorded comedy performance given by its creator and namesake, who at 57 is hardly in his autumn years but is contemplating posterity. “I really thought, ‘Where’s my stuff going to be when I’m dead?’ ” Mr. Seinfeld said Tuesday in an interview. “Is it just gone for all time? Who could sift through it? I thought, I should filter this out and be the judge of what I thought was good.” For the site, Seinfeld has opened his vault and come back with more than 1,000 clips of his stand-up act and comedic interviews. But each day the site will offer only three of these videos, chosen by Mr. Seinfeld, a strategy that reflects his theories about online content as well as his concerns about what he called “portion control.” “I don’t want everything,” he said. “Burger King now has a burger where you decide how many patties. How disgusting is that? That’s the problem right there. That’s the cultural moment that I am repudiating here.”

Obama sees big rise in poll numbers ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– WORLD/NATION–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
NY Times) — Support for President Obama has risen sharply following the killing of Osama bin Laden by American military forces in Pakistan, with a majority now approving of his overall job performance, as well as his handling of foreign policy, the war in Afghanistan and the threat of terrorism, according to the latest New York Times/CBS News poll. The glow of national pride seemed to rise above partisan politics, as support for the pres-
ident rose significantly among both Republicans and independents. In all, 57 percent said they now approved of the president’s job performance, up from 46 percent last month. But euphoria was tempered by a sense of foreboding: more than six in 10 Americans said that killing Bin Laden was likely to increase the threat of terrorism against the United States in the short term. A large majority also said that the Qaeda leader’s death did not make them feel any safer. Just 16 percent said
they personally felt more safe now. Though there has been talk in some quarters that the United States military can now leave Afghanistan, the poll showed that public sentiment on the issue seems more complicated. Nearly half said the nation should decrease troop levels in Afghanistan. But more than six in 10 also said the United States had not completed its mission in Afghanistan, suggesting that the public would oppose a rapid withdrawal of all American forces.
Obama says he won’t release Boise City battles fiercer photos of bin Laden’s corpse drought than Dust Bowl
WASHINGTON (NY Times) — President Obama decided not to release graphic photographs of Osama bin Laden’s corpse because he was persuaded by Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton that the release of the images would pose a national security risk, White House officials said on Wednesday. “There is no doubt that we killed Osama bin Laden,” Mr. Obama said in an interview with the CBS News program “60 Minutes,” according to an excerpt of an inter-
view that was read to reporters by Jay Carney, the White House press secretary. “We don’t need to spike the football.” After intense discussions with his national security team, Mr. Obama decided that the photos were too graphic and could further enflame bin Laden’s followers, Mr. Carney said, but would not change the minds of skeptics. Mr. Obama indicated in the interview that gloating by releasing the photos “is not who we are,” Mr. Carney said.
BOISE CITY, Okla. — While tornadoes and floods have ravaged the South and the Midwest, the remote western edge of the Oklahoma Panhandle is quietly enduring a weather calamity of its own: its longest drought on record, even worse than the Dust Bowl. With a drought continuing to punish much of the Great Plains, this one stands out. Boise City has gone 222 consecutive days through Tuesday with less than a quarter-inch of rainfall in any single day, said Gary McManus, a state climatologist. That is the longest such dry spell here since note-keeping began in 1908. The Dust Bowl of the 1930s, caused in part by the careless gouging of the earth in an effort to farm it, created an epic environmental disaster. Experts say it is unlikely to be repeated because farming has changed so much. Boise City recovered from the Dust Bowl and has periodically enjoyed bountiful years since.

Panel told spending Bin Laden’s death brings cap need is urgent hope to Muslims in N.H. THE BERLIN DAILY SUN, Thursday, May 5, 2011— Page 3
BY MARK HAYWARD THE UNION LEADER
CONCORD — Manchester residents “cannot afford to wait” for lawmakers to pass a bill allowing local spending caps or they will face a 4 percent property tax increase, Rep. Tammy Simmons, R-Manchester, told a Senate panel Tuesday. However, the Senate Public and Municipal Affairs Committee Chairman Sen. Jack Barnes, R-Raymond, said the committee will wait until the House acts on Senate Bill 2, which also would allow local spending and tax caps. SB 2 applies to all cities and towns, not just the ones with charters. To date, 12 communities have either passed spending caps or resolutions in support. Franklin, Nashua, Derry, Dover, Laconia and Rochester are among those with caps in place. While supporters said House Bill 341 would allow local voters to decide
whether they want a tax cap, opponents called it the wrong solution for the wrong problem, and just bad public policy. “The problem is the state revenue structure does not raise enough money to meet New Hampshire’s needs so they are pushed down to the cities and towns and local property taxes,” Cathy Silber, executive director of the Granite State Fair Tax Coalition, said. HB 341, sponsored by Rep. Steve Vaillancourt, R-Manchester, and others, would make changes in state statutes governing city and town charters. The changes would address issues the state Supreme Court cited in its decision overturning Manchester’s tax cap. Justices said the measure would interfere with aldermen’s ability to determine the city’s budget. —Courtesy of The Union Leader
MANCHESTER — Muslims who live in the Manchester area lined up with their fellow Granite State residents in welcoming the death of Osama bin Laden. For one local Muslim, bin Laden and his attack against the United States meant a loss of some friends and a hate crime against her and her family. Others said they hope the reputation of their religion can recover now that the figurehead of Islamic terrorism rests at the bottom of the sea. “It’s the best thing that’s happened in 2011 so far. He’s a killer,” said Tamam Mohamad, owner of Spice Center, an Arab and Middle Eastern market on Valley Street. A native of Iraq, Mohamad has lived in
the Manchester area since 1995, except for the second half of the 2000s, when he interpreted for the U.S. military in Iraq. “It’s a relief for everybody that he’s gone. It’s a sense of relief because Islam’s been so misrepresented,” said Fatima Deek, a Jordanian-born Palestinian who has lived in Manchester for nearly 20 years. Months after 9-11, a neighbor elbowed her and taunted her about her Middle Eastern origins. The neighbor was eventually charged, found guilty and given a suspended sentence. Deek said some neighbors and friends were supportive after 9-11; others shunned her. “He (bin Laden) is a person who decided to take advantage of our faith; use it, abuse it, make it ugly and make our life harder for us,” said Deek, an American citizen.
Committee votes to kill small Mother charged with school staffing requirement choking, threatening child BY NORM WELSH THE UNION LEADER
CONCORD — A Senate committee recommends killing a bill exempting small schools from state Department of Education staffing requirements. House Bill 290 allows small school districts to petition the department, which must grant approval if the school meets the small school definition. The bill has already passed the House. Several committee members noted schools currently can petition the department to be exempt from the requirements. Senate Education Committee Chairman Nancy Stiles, R-Hampton, said the department has greater flexibility now than it would if the bill becomes law. Once small schools are defined, she said, the department would lose that flexibility agency officials told her. Under the bill, small schools are defined as those with average daily attendance of less than 96 students for kindergarten through sixth grade, 120 students kindergarten through eighth grade, and 60 students grades nine through 12. Also small schools are those with average daily attendance per grade of 12 students or less for kindergarten through second grade, 14 students or less for grades three to eight, and 15 students or less for grades nine through 12. If schools meet the criteria, then flexibility is granted for the number of certified principals and guidance counselors; for library or media specialists; and for reading art, music, health and physical education teachers. Not all instructors would have
to be certified. Sen. James Forsythe, R-Strafford, said he really likes the bill because it could save small school districts money by allowing greater flexibility. “I understand if the Department of Education has the same philosophy as the legislature, but that could change,” he said. He said the bill would allow the legislature to tell the department what it wants, and not depend on the department to grant waivers. “Who are we trying to protect here?” asked Stiles. “I know you want to protect the taxpayer, but what about the students?” Sen. Sharon Carson, R-Londonderry, said local school districts know how to run their schools and what they need. “It is local control to let the school district decide to go to the Department of Education for a waiver,” she said. “We should not be involved.” Sen. Molly Kelly, D-Keene, agreed. “If the intent is some flexibility in small schools, it sounds like they have that and a process for it. Do we want to micro-manage that?” she asked. The committee voted 4-1 to recommend killing the bill. The Senate has until June 2 to act on House bills. The Senate Education Committee meets May 24 to decide on its recommendation on HB 429, which lowers the mandatory school attendance age from 18 to 16 years old; HB 164, which would require the legislature to approve the common core education standards before they are implemented in New Hampshire, and HB 130, which allows schools additional methods to demonstrate they provide an adequate education.

NASHUA — Two siblings have been removed from the care of their mother after she allegedly choked her daughter and then retrieved an extension cord while threatening to kill her. A neighbor intervened before more damage could be done, but the woman, Marta Rivera, 31, of 106 Bowers St., faces numerous charges for the Sunday night incident. Rivera’s 11-year-old daughter was fighting with her brother, 8, when the mother snapped and began hitting and slapping the girl, according to court documents. Rivera allegedly dragged the girl into her bedroom where she placed both of her hands around the girl’s neck and choked her, impeding the child’s breathing, says an affidavit filed at Nashua District Court. The daughter told authorities that her mother “looked like a beast” while she was choking her, according to the
affidavit, adding Rivera repeatedly told the child she was going to kill her. Eventually, the girl was able to escape and run to a neighbor for help. When the neighbor returned, she told police that Rivera was holding an extension cord and threatened to kill both of the children and herself. The eight-year-old boy told police “he is afraid of his mother and was reluctant to speak about the incident,” according to court documents. Rivera told the neighbor that she lost control and that “the devil came into me,” explaining she wants to kill the kids because they don’t deserve to live like this, according to court documents. She also told police that she wanted to kill her family because her life has been difficult and she wants to be at peace, says the affidavit. Court records indicate that Rivera has been stressed recently, and was notified on Sunday that she would be losing her job. In addition, her father also recently passed away, says the affidavit.

Spots for Heritage Festival filling up fast To the editor: Northern Forest Heritage Park, located at 942 Main Street in Berlin, wants to let everyone know that planning for the 2011 events is well under way. The first event of the season is the Cultural/ Heritage Festival scheduled for June 4. The Cultural/ Heritage Festival committee has been busy planning this event and is eagerly expecting a fantastic turnout. The Cultural/Heritage Festival will be held almost entirely within the Logging Camp area of NFHP. The committee decided it would be a good idea to replicate a very busy and old fashion “Village Square” of days long ago! The “Village Square” was the market place where most all services and vendors were available! All but the log pool games for kids and boat tours will be located in the “Village Square”. The Cultural/Heritage Festival is a full day of festivities for all ages. The hustle and bustle within the “Village Square” will be very noticeable! Families of French-Canadian, German, Irish, Italian, Native American, Norwegian, Russian and Scandinavian descent will not want to miss this opportunity to participate in this festival. There is every reason to believe that this year’s Food Fair will be outstanding and quite possibly top last year’s event. Chef’s of well known local restaurants such as Paul Santos of the Appalachian Mountain Club, Rachel Couture of Berlin Head Start, Mike and Sylvia Saladino of LaBo-
ttega Saladino’s, Liz Jackson of Libby’s Bistro, Jerry Riendeau of North Country Senior Meals and Joanne and Ted Roy of Northland Restaurant & Dairy Bar will prepare foods from all of the various cultures. The menu will include but not limited to; Russian cabbage rolls, German bratwurst and sauerkraut, Norwegian meat cakes, Italian lasagna, Canadian ragou, Canadian meat pies, bean-hole-beans, Italian wedding soup, French pea soup, Irish venison meat balls and the menu continues to grow. Due to popular demand, this year’s event will again feature Native American foods including, Cherokee Brunswick stew, and Shawnee cake. There will also be the traditional American BBQ station serving hotdogs, burgers, and fries, along with the world famous NFHP bean-hole-beans. The dessert list is growing as well. After your scrumptious meal you can enjoy Norwegian rice pudding, German strawberry tart, homemade doughnuts and more! Sons of Norway, Maine Nordmenn Chapter, will be on hand with Rosemaling and Viking wood carving demonstrations and sales. There will be plenty of entertainment featuring Patrick Ross well known fiddler of Northern New Hampshire and Tim Dion, popular guitarist of Berlin. These musicians will entertain the crowd in the middle of the “Village Square”! There will be artisan and crafts vendors, homemade see FESTIVAL page 4

Once upon a Berlin Time Northland Dairy Bar 1963
Poof Tardiff
1963 VII
Hello fellow Berlinites. The end of 1963 dealt tragedy to the citizens of Berlin, when two of their own were killed instantly in the middle of November in a car-train collision. The accident took place at the Lancaster road grade crossing, just beyond what we call Moes Variety today (2011). The unfortunate victims were Paul E. Albert 34, of Burgess Street and Dorothy Bilodeau 42, of Champlain Street. Albert and Bilodeau were traveling west towards Gorham Hill and the train was headed towards Berlin at about 12:10 in the early morning hours. The train struck the car on its left side and rolled it over; pushing it up the tracks. The two occupants were pinned inside the demolished car. Sadly, eight children were left without a parent. Apparently, the same engineer of this train had an accident at this identical spot two months previous with a mail truck. Thankfully, nobody died in the earlier accident. Car and train collisions occurred quite frequently in earlier years and the results were almost always the same. Although these accidents still occur occasionally, better safety rules have been established. November of 1963 saw the first electric power lines come to Pinkham Notch. Manager Bernard Gallagher of Public Service Company said the Pinkham Notch area was the last major section in the North Country to be tied into power lines, citing it as the “Last Frontier”. Up to this point, Wildcat, the AMC Huts, the Edward Sullivan Glen House, Dolly Copp campground and the state garage had depended on their own generators for power. By December, the power would be flowing through the lines. There were several things different about this construction and one of them was the placement of the utility poles. In the White Mountain National Forest area, these poles had to be set back 200 feet from the highway. This was done at the request of the Forest
Service, so that poles would not detract from the beauty along the highway. This meant cutting a 20 foot right of way through the forest. At Wildcat, the cable went underground for several hundred feet, keeping the view of the ski area clear. I am sure that other changes took place in the last 48 years. A vote of 4-3 was taken by the state board of education to locate the “North Country Vocational School” on the Oscar Haley farm on the Lancaster Road or Gorham Hill. This vote came as a shock and a very unhappy surprise to the representatives of the city of Berlin. At this point, protest letters started coming into the governor’s office. These letters of disapproval forced the state to give city officials another chance to present their case for locating this school in Berlin. An announcement was made by the end of December 1963 that another meeting was going to be held on January 16, 1964. Sounds like some of the things happening in Berlin today. When I talk about the year 1964, we will probably be able to finish this school saga. The land for the Federal Building (post office today) was finally selected near the Officer Fred Landry end of 1963. This piece of property would be on the southwestern corner of Pleasant and Exchange Streets and the building would be designed to house other federal agencies along with our new postal department. The new building would have a frontage of about 400 feet on Pleasant Street and extend about 280 feet on Exchange Street. This irregularly shaped lot contained approximately 75,000 square feet. see 1963 III page 6

After a lifetime of the genetic condition that has afflicted her kidneys, the 42-year-old mother of six has almost reached the end of her rope. She has been on dialysis for three years and is now down to one percent use of her own kidneys, she said in recent interview. Ironically, Michelle is a licensed practical nurse. “Most of my life I’ve been taking care of other people,” she observed. “Now I’m the one being taken care of; I know now how my patients felt. It’s no fun. I’m used to doing everything on my own.” Suggested donations for the dance are $5 per person or $7 per couple. Snacks will be provided and soft drinks will be available for purchase. The band and Patrick Ross are donating their time and talents. Those who would like to donate a kidney (through the kidney swap program, it doesn’t have to completely match Michelle’s need) can call the Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center at 603-653-3931. “That is the transplant unit,” said Michelle. “They will tell donors everything. They have to be sure you really want to be a donor and that no one is pressuring you into anything. . . . The donor’s medical bills are paid through the National Kidney Foundation, Inc.” Michelle’s crisis has come upon her as an adult, but throughout her childhood she suffered from frequent kidney infections and was in and out of the hospital, she said. “I had to take extra precautions. I loved riding horses but I couldn’t because of the risk that a cyst might break with the jarring,” she remembered. She was formally diagnosed with polycystic kidney disease when she was 21, she said. “There’s no treatment until your kidneys fail,” she said. “Then you go on dialysis.” Despite her physical limitation, she managed to live a fairly normal life and gave birth to her six children: Joseph Brennan, 22; George Brennan, 21; Karen Sharp, 18; Audrey Hill, 16; Alysha Hill, 15; and Samantha Braley, 13.

The three youngest are still at home, although Audrey has been missing since April 28. “The Berlin and Gorham police are looking for Audrey. Hopefully they’ll find her,” said Michelle, sadly. “I think she is just overwhelmed with all of this.” Michelle moved to the Berlin area when she attended the then Berlin Technical College and received her Human Services degree in 2001. But in 2003 she was diagnosed with breast cancer, underwent a lumpectomy and chemo and radiation, and her kidney disease began to get the better of her. She had to go on dialysis, first with peritoneal dialysis which involves a tube into the abdomen and blood cleansing using the peritoneal membrane lining the abdominal cavity. Unfortunately, she got peritonitis, which is an inflammation of that membrane. She ended up in the hospital, she said, and was put on hemodialysis. “They put an artificial artery in your arm,” she said, “then the artery hardened.” “In the meantime, I was going through chemotherapy and radiation for the breast cancer,” she said. As hard as those treatments were, she was also made aware that she would not be eligible for a kidney transplant until she had been free of cancer for five years—adding another worry to her list. Now, at least, her cancer has been in remission for a good seven years. Lately Michelle has been receiving dialysis three times a week in Lancaster through a tunnel catheter in her chest, which “is supposed to be a temporary thing,” she said, but there are problems with this method of dialysis, too. She contracted a staph infection via the catheter in April that went system wide. With a fever of 104, she was rushed to Dartmouth in an ambulance and there underwent several operations before a temporary catheter was inserted that worked properly and the staph infection was quelled. It was there that the medical staff discovered that her kidney function see MICHELLE page 6

BERLIN -- On May 12, and 13, all Berlin High School juniors will be taking the New England Common Assessment Program (NECAP) tests. Staff and juniors will be the only people in the building from 7:30 a.m. until 10:30 a.m. unless prior arrangements have been made with the principal. This is to prevent interruptions while juniors are testing. Therefore, juniors will begin school at their usual 1963 VII from page 4
Congressman James Cleveland said that the estimated cost of the project to be $446,200, including $94,000 for land acquisition and preparation of the site. We could use congressmen like him up here today. A major part of the local news in the end of this year was the shocking assassination of President John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963. Many pictures and reminiscing about this famous president were printed in the local paper. They talked about the day when Senator Kennedy of Massachusetts came to Berlin while seeking his nomination for the presidency in the New Hampshire primaries. The local headlines in the end of November 1963 also included a story about Berlin’s famous police officer Fred Landry. Over 40 years had passed since Fred had pinned on his first badge and now, Assistant Police Chief Landry was going to retire at the end of the month. Fred joined the Berlin Police Department on October 26, 1923. That made him the oldest man in point of service at this time. Landry said that everybody who was on the force when he joined had either retired or passed away. This special Berlin police officer saw many local cops come and go during his time and he also saw many changes take place within this city and in police work. Police work was not his first job, as he was a woodsman, construction worker and World War I veteran, before putting on the blue uniform. Landry said that he had heard of two openings in the department, so he and his cousin Louis Couture went to see then police commissioner, Joe Blais. Along with him and Couture, other men from out of town had also applied. Mr. Blais asked both local men if they had served in the Army and both men answered yes. At this juncture, Blais picked up the phone and called Mr. Edmond Sullivan, another commissioner. He told Sullivan that both of these men had been all over the world and could do a great job. Both of these applicants became policemen. During these years, the police department was at the bottom of the City Hall. Since then though, it has moved a couple of times, once to Cole Street and then to Green Street. It has been on
time, 7:30 a.m. and the rest of the students will need to report to school for 10:30 a.m. Buses will pick up all junior bus students at their regular time, but freshmen, sophomore and senior bus students will be picked up three hours later. The school attempted this format the past couple of years and scores have increased. Any questions, please call Berlin High School at 752-4122. Green Street for many years now. Fred said that they didn’t have any cruisers back in his beginning days. They just had an old REO truck and motorcycle during the warm days. When there was a call to the station, the officer at the desk would drive off in the truck and one of the men on the beat would take over for him. Landry also said that he had his share of rough characters with which to deal; especially in his earlier days, when the woodsmen and log drivers would invade this city and do some heavy drinking. Of course, fights would break out because of this, but the officers knew how to handle and quell these situations. In his forty years as an officer, Landry said that he never had to fire his gun at a human being, nor did someone shoot at him. He said that he never believed in going around waving a gun, as there were other ways to take care of matters. This officer was always known to be in great shape. Even in 1963, when Landry was just over seventy years old, he could handle himself well. He was famous for his ability in the woods day or night and would think nothing of tramping several miles into a favorite fishing hole or hunting ground in his later years. He would fish and hunt in areas that many sportsmen didn’t even know about. Of course, in his younger days, he was a great river driver and log roller, along with being superb with an ax and saw and he won many competitions all over New England in these departments. Mr. Landry moved up the promotional ladder, but never became full time chief, because he just didn’t want this job. He served as acting chief, when a marshal was sick or incapacitated and that is as far as it went. This great man lived to be over 101 years old, was very healthy and ambitious, and probably would have lived on if he did not contract the dreaded disease of cancer. He was born in 1893 and passed on in 1995. Fred Landry is certainly one of Berlin’s great police officers and the last of the super woodsmen of his time. Questions or comments email poof@ ne.rr.com.

ing the same. In 2010, the department received $3,600 for OHRV funding from N.H. Fish and Game. Valerino told the police commission in November he anticipated receiving the same amount for 2011. The department hasn’t received its figure from N.H. Fish and Game for this year’s grant money. The department previously received $15,000 for the patrols, though the funding was cut in 2009. The City Council still needs to accept the grant funds from N.H. Highway Safety. In other OHRV business, Chief Peter Morency said the OHRV trail is set to reopenon May 23. The only change to the trail this year is that it’s going to be rerouted through Dead River Park rather than following York Street, said Morency. He added the city got a number of complaints from resi-
dents about having the OHRVs on York Street. Morency said the city got some grant funds to make improvements to the park. He added it would not only make it a better thoroughfare for OHRVs but also for pedestrians using the park. Later in the meeting, Morency briefly discussed an issue with the phone system between the police and fire departments. Morency said if someone calls the fire department for assistance using 752-3135 the number rings at the police department’s administration number rather than dispatch. He added so if no one is in any of the administrative offices, there’s no one to answer that call. “It’s being worked on,” said Morency. If people need assistance from the fire department in an emergency, Morency said they should call 911 rather than the fire department’s business phone number.

Berlin IGA celebrates 25th with major renovations BY GAIL SCOTT THE BERLIN DAILY SUN
BERLIN—Sue and Steve Tardiff are celebrating their 25 years as owners of the Berlin IGA by renovating the store from top to bottom. It’s their 25th anniversary present to all their clients in the Berlin area. Workmen are still hammering away but the store is open and although the renovations are not complete yet, already the space is brighter, looks bigger, and new products are appearing on the shelves such as a whole new section for organic products. “The deli and bakery are totally changing,” said the Tardiffs in a recent interview. They have installed new, more efficient bakery ovens and a bigger rotisseries oven. They are adding a hot foods case and a refrigerated bakery case for things like custard filled items and fresh fruit and berry pies in season, complementing the already well known pleasers like the home-deli-made salads. They will have all new shelving for non refrigerated products so that items will be more accessible, even on the top shelves which will be lower. The fresh produce section already has an expanded appearance and will soon have a new parquet floor. All the produce tables will be replaced with orchard bins and Euro tables. The Euro tables have finished sides with shelves for packaged products like garlic, explained the Tardiffs, who are delighted to be offering area shoppers a whole new grocery experience at the Berlin IGA. The transformations are happening mostly at night so people can continue to shop the IGA during see BERLIN IGA page 10
Sue and Steve Tardiff are pleased to show off the sweeping changes taking place at the Berlin IGA, such as the growing section for fresh produce, right next to a new section for organic products. The whole store has a brighter, larger appearance, thanks to renovations throughout the store including major deli and bakery additions.
Aubuchon Hardware offers big new paint section BY GAIL SCOTT THE BERLIN DAILY SUN
Bonnie Mortensen, manager of the Berlin Aubuchon, shows off the huge new section for a much greater display and supply of Benjamin Moore paints from the Coronado brand, which is a Benjamin Moore subsidiary, to Aura, the manufacturer’s new paint and primer combined. The public is invited to Aubuchon’s grand opening of the completely renovated store Thursday to Sunday, May 12-15, with a special ribbon cutting ceremony on Thursday, May 12 at 3:30 p.m., expected to be presided over by Aubuchon CEO William E. Aubuchon, III. (GAIL SCOTT PHOTO)
BERLIN—The Berlin Aubuchon Hardware has expanded its paint section by 750 sq ft., renovated the whole store, and plans a grand opening celebration from Thursday to Sunday, May 12-15, with a special ribbon cutting ceremony on Thursday, May 12 at 3:30 p.m., expected to be presided over by Aubuchon CEO William E. Aubuchon, III. There will be all kinds of specials, prizes and refreshments every day of the grand opening, said Bonnie Mortensen, manager of the store. The most obvious change at the store is the added space for a huge display of Benjamin Moore products, with more colors and more varieties of paints available. Among these, the store is now carrying Coronado paints, Benjamin Moore’s industrial paint, says Mortensen, and Aura, Benjamin Moore’s paint and primer all-in-one that is low VOC (volatile organic compound) as well as more convenient to use than conventional products. Mortensen said that some time ago Aubuchon headquarters wanted to expand the store and asked her to look around for another location, but, after surveying what space was available in the Berlin area, she was reluctant to move the store. “The store has been here for 29 years and our client base is here,” she said. The solution was to move into the space formerly occupied by NCIA and keep Aubuchon at its popular, highly visible, and convenient location. Inside, besides the colorful addition of the Benjamin Moore paint section, the whole store has new see AUBUCHON page 10

Corrigan Screen Printing celebrates 10th anniversary BY GAIL SCOTT THE BERLIN DAILY SUN
BERLIN—Nathan Corrigan, 32, of Gorham, always knew he wanted to have his own business and, with a solid ten years in business as Corrigan Screen Painting, he has made it happen, with a little help from his best friends, Wally and Janet Corrigan, his parents. Corrigan Screen Painting, now with a highly visible location at the Gateway Trailer Park on Route 2 just west of Gorham’s town center, has seen business grow steadily from its start in a trailer on Memory Lane in 2001, to the present two story building, where Corrigan offers a panoply of products of personal photos applied to gift products and T-shirts to custom T- and sweat shirt designs and sports trophies of all kinds. Corrigan went to Laconia Technical College to study graphic arts and, while there, took a printing class, he said in a recent interview. He enjoyed the class and, while still at Laconia, started working at Bovie Screen Printing in Concord. After graduation, he continued working at Bovie and then a cousin in Jefferson, offered to sell Corrigan his screen printing press and business. Corrigan took advantage of the opportunity. While still working at Bovie, he started Corrigan Screen Printing out of the Memory Lane trailer in Gorham. “We called it ‘the sweat shop,’ it would get so hot in there,” remembered Corrigan and his mother, Janet. Meanwhile, he continued to work at Bovie, covering miles and miles and hours and hours of travel to keep up with both his new business and his job at Bovie. “At first he was just doing Corrigan Screen Printing on the weekends. Then he would come home every other night and drive back to work at Bovie at 7 a.m. He would come home after work in Concord and work here until 11 p.m.,” said Janet. Around 2004, Corrigan decided to cut back to just working full time at Corrigan Screen Printing, working on his initial four color press. Now more settled, he looked for and found a six color press on eBay. He acquired a second trailer and revamped it for the second, six color press and the dark room. “It was so hot in there, you’d be working in shorts in the middle of winter,” he recalled. “The sweat would drip down your face.” By 2006 business was picking up so much that he needed more room and felt he needed more visibility.

He looked at other buildings in town and at different properties. He priced a stick built structure to put on land at the Gateway Trailer Park and then he and his family began to consider the two trailers the town had for sale that had been used as the temporary town hall during the real town hall renovations. The price seemed right to purchase those two trailers and convert them into one building to house the printers, offices, showroom and store room, all right on Route 2 where passers-by would notice Corrigan Screen Printing’s big sign. By 2007, all was accomplished and Corrigan Screen

the day. All the work is being done by area contractors, said the Tardiffs. Claudette Eames of Milan is painting all the walls. The new flooring is being done by Alan Henry of Berlin. The general contractor is Lucien Langlois of Hill Street Construction. Tim Warner is doing the tile work in the deli. Ray’s Electric has done a lot of the electric work and Matt Boisselle is doing the new refrigeration and other electrical work. “We are kind of upside down now,” said Steve, “but by June 1, the transformation will be complete. We wanted to put more focus on fresh food, bakery, and deli items.” “We’ve had a lot of positive feedback already,” both Tardiffs said. “Shoppers have been very patient.”

of different items.” Corrigan said that just before Corrigan Screen Printing moved to its new location, it had been getting calls about trophies because a local supplier had closed. “We looked into that and thought it would be a benefit to the community to do trophies and awards,” he said. He also finds that a fair number of local orders for any of his products involve small quantities that he can do easily and on time for area clients, while his Internet business is steadily picking up. He is serving not only the general area, including Maine and Vermont, but has orders from elsewhere in the country, as well as a number of repeat orders from the Manchester area. If there is a bump in the economy that affects his business, it is that the price of cotton has almost tripled, he said. Corrigan isn’t quite sure what is the source of this explosion in the cost, but he speculates that flooding in the high production cotton countries, plus, perhaps, that foreign cotton growers planted less cotton because of the U.S. slowdown, expecting fewer orders. In any case, he prefers to buy American and offers clients prices based on foreign and American cotton products. American T-shirts, for example, are slightly more

expensive, he notes, but some prefer to buy America. Sweat shirts are the same price for US- and foreignsourced. At this point Corrigan’s goal is to continue to grow. “Last year was my best year to date,” he said. “A lot of people in the area will call me first before they look on the Internet, so I have been very busy.” “Sometimes we’re here until 8 p.m. or so,” said Janet. At present Janet is his bookkeeper and Wally helps out with production. “Everybody pitches in,” said Corrigan. When Corrigan was one of the two representatives from the Gorham Firefighters who went down to New Orleans to help in the aftermath of Katrina, for instance, his parents kept up the business. When they needed new designs, Corrigan could create them on his laptop and send them home. He came home for one brief interval during the nine months he was away. Most of the customers Corrigan Screen Printing served during that time were repeat customers, he said. While he was gone, his parents even attended a graphics arts show and found a digital printer that they now use for smaller orders of more complex designs But his mother reminds him that she and her husband will not be around forever. Corrigan has in mind that he will eventually begin to hire employees and in see CORRIGAN page 11

Water Works is keeping the M&M building for storage of smaller pieces of equipment. Water Works employees will do all the site preparation work with the rest of the project going out for bid hopefully next month. The goal is to complete the project this year. A final cost estimate was not available but the money is built into Water Works’ capital improvement budget and will not impact water rates. Tom and Barbara Sweeney appeared before the board for a design review of their plans for 273 Pleasant Street. The Greenfield couple has purchased the building, formerly owned by Robert Brown. Tom Sweeney said they are planning to open a thrift store on the first level and eventually turn the second floor into their home. Sweeney explained that they have been selling items on the Internet site EBay for two years and have compiled a good rating from buyers. He said they have two vendors they work with and they also go to yard sales and estate sales to purchase items. The building is currently classified as residential but mixed use is allowed in the downtown zone. Sweeney noted there are a garage and a shed on the property and said all items will be stored inside. He said the couple has been working with the city’s code enforcement office on zoning and building inspections. The planning board identified no major issues with the Sweeney’s plans. The couple will need to come back before the board for a formal site plan review before they can move forward. CORRIGAN from page one
the long run, he hopes to have three to four full time employees, including himself. Meanwhile, he plans to observe the tenth anniversary of Corrigan Screen Printing by working harder at making his dream business even more of a success.

BERLIN -- The Mountaineer boy’s baseball team scored three times in the second and fifth innings, and went on to defeat Division II rival Kennett, 6-2 in Berlin Saturday. The win was the second time in a week that the Mountaineers defeated Kennett. The Eagles plated a run in the first inning off Berlin winning pitcher Curtis Arsenault, putting the visitors up 1-0. Berlin responded with a three spot in the bottom of the second inning to take a 3-1 advantage. Junior Zach Bacon opened things open by drawing a walk and then stealing a base. After a strike out, Elijah Hawkins used an infield single to put runners on the corners. Freshman Ryan Richard drew a walk to load the bases. A wild pitch allowed Bacon to scamper home. Zach Donaldson walked to fill the bases once again for Berlin. Lead-off hitter Ryan Fortin drilled a single to plate two more runs, giving the home team a lead they would not give up. The Berlin boys put together their second three run inning in the bottom of the fifth inning. Arsenault singled and quickly moved into scoring
position. First baseman Eric Godin knocked in Arsenault for the 4-1 lead. Bacon followed by belting a double. Bacon was allowed to score on an errant throw from the Kennett relay man that went out of play, to put Berlin’s advantage at 6-1. The Eagles scored their final run in the top of the sixth inning to make the final score 6-2. The Eagles started pitcher Vince Patch. Patch needed help from reliever Sean Pearley in the third inning. Berlin had Arsenault twirl the first five innings. Senior team mate Hawkins came in to throw the final two innings. “Elijah threw very well for us today,” said Berlin coach Dan Brigham. “He set down the heart of Kennett’s order, striking out four of his last five batters he faced. That is the best I have seen him throw.” Berlin will travel to White Mountain Regional high school on Wednesday, to take on the Spartans.

Berlin falls to Kennett 3-1, defeats Gorham Huskies, 18-2 BY JEAN LEBLANC THE BERLIN DAILY SUN

BERLIN -- KENNETT 3 BERLIN
Kennett’s Jordyn Moore clouted a two-run homer in the top of the third inning and teammate pitcher Whitney Roberts held the Berlin offense to just run, helping the Eagles to a hard fought 3-1 victory over the Mountaineers in Berlin. Berlin jumped on Kennett’s Roberts in the first inning for their only run of the game. Cassie Martin singled and teammate Sarah Landers followed with another single, moving Martin into scoring position. Senior Megan Morin shot a base hit to plate Martin and giving Berlin a 1-0 lead. The Eagles responded by getting all of their runs in the top of the third inning. A base hit followed by Moore’s two-run shot put the visitors up 2-1. A hit, a sacrifice bunt, and a hit made it 3-1. That was all Kennett ace Whitney Roberts would need. The Berlin offense had eight hits through out the game. However, the Kennett defense had just one error and Roberts helped herself by striking out ten Berlin hitters. Berlin pitcher Megan Hood limited Kennett to just six hits. The left hander struck out eight Kennett batters, while walking just two. The Berlin girls will try to get back on the winning track on Monday. Berlin travels to Gorham and on
Wednesday they visit the Spartans of White Mountain Regional.

BERLIN 18 GORHAM 2 The Berlin offense lashed out a 21 hit 18-run attack, moving on to an 18-2 victory over the Huskies in Gorham Monday. The Lady Mountaineers scored in every inning, including an eight-run sixth inning, to end the contest early. There were multiple hit getters for Berlin. Cassie Martin had four hits including two triples, a double, and a single. Junior Megan Hood added three hits including a pair of triples. The Gorham girls team actually held a 2-1 lead after one inning of play. Two walks and an Alex Ramierz double gave the Lady Huskies the brief lead. Berlin Pitcher Sarah Landers settled in nicely for the visitors after the two run first inning. Landers kept Gorham off the board in going the rest of the way. Landers surrendered just six hits and struck out six Gorham batters. Nine walks kept the Mountie pitcher on her guard.

Gill’s Flower Shop
It all started in the late 1800s when the first Thomas Gill arrived in Canada as a young man and travelled 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! For years, Gills grew its own flowers and plants, but as years passed the energy crunch made growing prof-
itably impossible. Now we buy in all our products. Gills carries all your floral 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 cliental to our store whom we are happy to serve. Gills is your "Friendly Flower Store" located at 164 Main Street, Suite 1.

For all that you have given me, I can return but love. For you Bound up the wounds I did not see And 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 would For all that you have given me.

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.

DILBERT
by Scott Adams
By Holiday Mathis heart to keep going forward even when there’s no sign that you’ll find success. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your perspective is unique. You’ll mostly keep your opinions and observations to yourself. However, there is one thing you notice, which you should share. Otherwise, everyone will miss out. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You like who you are, and you like your life. This is reflected in your activities of the day. You say “yes” to only the propositions that look, sound and feel like they are going to be a blast. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You don’t ask anyone to be perfect. You just ask them to show up and try. You’ll see the proof in action that someone respects you, and that makes you feel proud. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). There’s more for you to do, so some of your usual self-care activities might slip through the cracks. The sacrifices you make will be worth it in the end. You can catch up tomorrow. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You can make a mistake and come back from it. But you much prefer to avoid the pitfalls in the first place. The research you do today will allow for exactly that. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (May 5). You’ll discover something new that you can do or a different and more effective way of operating with people. You’ll use this skill to bring prosperity to you and yours. July features a pilgrimage. August brings love, laughter and many beautiful nights with good friends. Your special bond with animals drives the action in September. Libra and Leo people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 10, 24, 33 and 17.
Cul de Sac
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You want to feel a reflection of the joy you bring to what you’re doing. You’re not working for the praise, laughter and applause, but when it comes, it lets you know you’re on the right track. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The extremes of work and play, socializing and self-interest, money and art -- balancing these things is not something that always comes naturally. That’s why they call it a balancing “act.” You’ll be adept at this kind of acting. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll act as the wise shaman of your group. You won’t boss people around, and yet you’ll cause them to behave differently. You are influential because you speak your mind. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You have several tasks to tackle, and you will spend about two hours on each one. You will be incredibly productive in these relatively short stints of work, concentrating intensely and doing what needs to be done. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You will benefit from exploring your interest in the natural world. You have a special connection with rocks, plants, animals and weather. Studying and experiencing nature brings you back to your soul. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll add new people to your team. The type of help you want will come from someone who is confident enough to give you a firm handshake while looking you in the eye. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll gain the respect of a boss or colleague. It’s not because everything you do is golden. It’s because you have the

HUSBAND’S LACK OF TRUST MAY MEAN HE WANTS MORE CONTROL
DEAR ABBY: I am a marriage counselor writing in response to the March 22 letter from the man who objected to his wife having dinner with a mutual (male) friend while the writer was on a business trip. I found his signature, “Feeling Cheated On in Illinois,” excessive, perhaps even a signal he has an “ownership” attitude toward his spouse, which is associated with controlling behavior. In the absence of any reason to distrust her, why is he so upset? My husband of 20 years was going to Japan for a week to visit our foster daughter. I was unable to go, so one of my female friends went with him instead. My husband is attractive, and no doubt has had many opportunities to cheat. I realize many spouses are unfaithful, but you don’t keep them faithful by keeping them on a short leash. All that does is make a potential cheater sneakier. Because spouses who cheat sometimes claim their loversin-waiting are “just friends” doesn’t mean men and women can’t be “just friends.” “Illinois” is insecure at best, controlling at worst. I think he should have a one-time appointment with a therapist and discuss his expectations of his wife. -BARBARA IN MAINE DEAR BARBARA: I heard from readers who have firsthand experience in this subject. And many of them agreed with you. Read on: DEAR ABBY: I’m an at-home wife of a husband who travels frequently. He has logged more than 3 million frequent flyer miles in the last 20 years. I’ll bet the “Illinois” man dines out often with female colleagues. It’s a fact of business life these days. And I’ll bet a lot of the women are married, too. So, really, what’s the difference? He needs to look inward at his own actions and ability to trust. While travel may be part of his job, why must his wife be denied adult companionship when he’s away? A man and woman eating out together doesn’t automatically equal “date.” I do it often when my husband travels. I pay my own way and meet my friend(s) at the restaurant. It’s a “get-to-
gether” and the only way I can stay sane. -- BEEN THERE AND WILL CONTINUE DEAR ABBY: I’m a married woman with single and married male friends. I go out for lunches and dinners with all of them. Some live out of state and we email often. I also have outings with female pals, some of whom are lesbians. “Illinois” needs to figure out why he doesn’t trust his wife and his good friend. My husband socializes without me as well. He even goes to lunch sometimes with an old girlfriend. Either you trust your partner or you don’t. -- SECURE AND HAPPY IN CALIFORNIA DEAR ABBY: I travel often and enjoy dinners with lots of people, both male and female. I’ve dined with my neighbor’s husband while we were stranded at an airport trying to get home. Should we have sat at different tables? Implying that this behavior is “questionable” is outrageous. My husband is sometimes invited to dinner by neighbors when I’m away and I thank them for their kindness. -- JULIA IN GAINESVILLE, FLA. DEAR ABBY: Something similar happened to me. It started with the remark that there’s nothing wrong with a married woman having a man as her best friend. Three years later she filed for divorce, saying she didn’t love me anymore. They worked together in the same office, started going out to lunch, then having after-work drinks and golf dates on the weekends I worked overtime. I understand what “Illinois” is going through. I hope his situation works out better than mine did. -- LARRY IN OHIO DEAR ABBY: I hurt for the wife who is stuck at home “several nights a week.” Why couldn’t her husband just say, “Good for you, you have company!”? Married people can be friends with other married members of the opposite sex. If “Illinois” can’t handle that reality, then he should find a job that lets him be home with his wife every night. -- CATHY FROM CLEVELAND

5th Annual Danny Legendre Memorial Golf Tournament to be held on May 28
GORHAM -- The 5th Annual Danny Legendre Memorial Golf Tournament will be held on Saturday, May 28, at 9 a.m. at the Androscoggin Valley Country Club in Gorham. This tournament is a Charitable, nonprofit Golf Tournament which is dedicated to the remembrance of Danny Legendre. Danny Legendre was a beloved son, brother, classmate and friend whose life was sadly cut short by an unfortunate snowmobile accident. Known as the jokester of Gorham’s Class of 2007, Danny had an upbeat attitude and positive outlook both in the classroom and for life itself. Danny was loved by all because he never understood the meaning of the word “quit.”
Being an avid fan of hockey and life itself, Danny had dreams of playing college hockey at the University of New Hampshire and continuing onto the NHL. With one of his favorite movies being Happy Gilmore, about a man who combines his love for hockey with the sport of golf, The Danny Legendre Memorial Golf tournament was established in his name. This year’s tournament will be bigger and better then before. Whether you are a returner, or a firsttime golfer, this four-person, Scramble-formatted tournament is open to all levels and all ages of golfers. Competing for the infamous Danny Legendre Cup, everyone walks away with a
great goodie bag, a smile on their face and a wonderful experience in participating in this amazing and ever-growing golf tournament!
For further information such as sponsorship and/or registration information contact Gorham High School at 466 2776. Speak with Anne or Judy.
