SAYWHAT...For life and death are one, even as the

river and the sea are one.”—Khalil Gibran

LOS ANGELES (NY Times) — As they stood on the bank, the small and eager group exchanged the requisite disparaging jokes about the Los Angeles River, best known for its uninviting concrete channels that make many think of a drainage ditch.

“You think we’ll turn into a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle if the water touches us?” asked Aaron Goldstein, one of the group.

They could be forgiven for their dark humor. After all, there had not been an approved fl oat trip down the river in more than seven decades. But in a few min-utes, the 10 people gathered in Balboa Park, about 20 miles northwest of downtown, would take to the river in kayaks and canoes, as part of a pilot proj-ect to allow paddling on the waterway. For advocates who have spent decades fi ghting politicians who suggested that the river be paved over for a new freeway, the inau-gural boat rides are the best sign yet that a revitalization is coming — at least on the sec-tions lined with willow trees and cattails.

“Every great city has a river,” said Steve Reizes, 50, a property manager who occasionally bikes along part of the river to commute from his home in Sherman Oaks to his offi ce downtown. “They market riverfront properties and restaurants and all kinds of things. Why shouldn’t we have that, too?”

TRIPOLI, Libya (NY Times) — Rebels inten-sifi ed their hunt for Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi and his sons on Thursday, engaging in a fero-cious fi ght with loyalists in a neighborhood of apartment blocks near his former Tripoli fortress, as Western offi cials said NATO was actively helping in the effort to fi nd the elu-sive leader. But in a new taunt, Colonel Qad-dafi urged Libyans in a brief audio broadcast to cleanse Tripoli of the insurgents, whom he called “rats, crusaders and unbelievers.”

The broadcast, carried on loyalist chan-

nels, came amid other indications that even with an accelerated momentum by the rebels in the Libyan uprising, strong pockets of resistance remained in Tripoli and other parts of the country, which Colo-nel Qaddafi ruled for the past 42 years.

Colonel Qaddafi ’s spokesman, Moussa Ibrahim, added to the defi ant message in a telephone call to the Cairo Bureau of The Associated Press. He gave no clue to the whereabouts of Colonel Qaddafi or his family but said the Libyan leader’s morale was high,

and that he was in command and capable of withstanding any rebel onslaught for “weeks, months and years.”Hundreds of wounded fi ghters and civilians streamed into Tripoli hospitals from the new clashes in Tripoli’s Abu Salim neighborhood, adjacent to Colonel Qaddafi ’s former Bab al-Aziziya compound, which was overrun by rebels on Tuesday. Rumors swirled in the capital that insurgents fi ghting in Abu Salim had cornered Colonel Qaddafi or at least one member of his family. The claims were impossible to verify.

NAGS HEAD, N.C. (NY Times) — As Hurricane Irene inched north toward North Carolina on Thurs-day, some people in this resort area packed their cars and boarded up their windows. Others, among them diehard vacationers, said they were staying put a while longer.

“We paid for a whole week; we’re staying,” said Erica Shore, 18, who arrived here on Saturday and said she and her friends planned to drive off the island at precisely 6 a.m. Saturday, just hours before the hur-ricane is expected to make landfall in the southeastern part of the state.

In a bulletin issued Thursday morning, county offi cials said they expected the highways and roads in low-lying areas to be fl ooded when the storm comes ashore. Two shelters will open in the county on Friday morning. Hurricane Irene — which on Thursday was a Cate-gory 3 storm with wind gusts of up to 125 miles per hour — has been moving slowly over the Bahamas since Wednesday, causing wide-spread fl ooding and power failures. Twelve inches of rain is expected to fall on the island nation before the storm veers northward.

Hurricane Irene moves slowlyTOKYO (NY Times) — Despite continuing fears over the

safety of food from the area of the disaster-stricken Fuku-shima Daiichi nuclear power plant, Japan has lifted a ban on beef shipments from there that it had imposed just a month ago, when meat contaminated with radioactive mate-rial was found to have reached Japanese supermarkets.

The decision to lift the ban underscores the diffi culty faced by the government. Offi cials are eager to minimize the harm to farmers from the Fukushima area and to bring the local economy back to normal, but they are also trying to repair the damage to their credibility from the handling of the nuclear disaster.

The discovery of radioactive cesium in a number of prod-ucts last month has greatly undermined public trust in the safety of produce from the region, even if, as the government says, the amount that was found was tiny.

FRANCONIA NOTCH — Thanks to a grant from the federal Institute of Museum and Library Services, the New England Ski Museum plans to create a new permanent exhibit tell-ing the story of the development of skiing as a sport and an economic engine of the North Country.

The $86,014 grant to the ski museum is among the 160 awarded under the 2011 Museums for America program, for which 481 institutions applied.

“We are pleased to support muse-ums through investments in high-pri-ority, high value activities that benefi t communities throughout the United States,” said Institute of Museum and Library Services director Susan Hil-dreth. “These museums, small and large, will help to educate and inspire the public for years to come.”

New England Ski Museum unveils a new annual exhibit each year, but also displays a mix of historic objects, artwork and photographs that remain for longer periods.

Some of the highlights of these permanent exhibits include a selec-tion of the museum’s best skis show-ing the development of the ski over time, signifi cant trophies of the sport, the National Ski Patrol parka owned by its founder Minnie Dole, and the oldest book known to depict images of skiers, dating from 1580.

Ski timeline exhibit“This December we will start our

fourth decade of welcoming the public,” said museum president Bo Adams. “Over the years, as signifi cant new objects are donated, we have put them on permanent display, but the result has become a bit haphazard. The IMLS grant will let us arrange these in an organized, chronological way that will better explain skiing to our visitors.”

Drawing on research from past annual displays, the new exhibit will present a history of skiing from its Stone Age beginnings to the present, and will include popular topics like the emergence of the sport of down-hill skiing in the 1930s, the mountain troops of the 10th Mountain Division in World War II, skiing in New Hamp-

EVANS NOTCH — A woman’s serious fall down a hiking trail near the Maine border could have ended in disaster on Wednesday if it wasn’t for the actions of her 9-year-old son.

At around 12:30 p.m. April Kear-ney, of Cumberland, Maine, her husband, Michael, and her son, John, were hiking along the Basin Trail between Ragged Jacket and West Royce Mountains, according to New Hampshire Fish and Game offi cer Alex Lopashanski, when they encountered a steep section. The trail descended steeply through rough terrain, making for diffi cult footing.

“She tripped at the top and fell 30 feet,” Lopashanski said, hitting her head against a fl at rock at the bottom, “almost like banging her head into a wall.”

There was no question the injury was serious. Right away she began seizing and bleeding from a gash in her head. The seizure lasted a minute and a half, Lopashanski said, and her pupils dilated. “She lost a lot of blood.”

Michael wrapped his wife’s head in a cloth and directed John to keep pressing on the spot that was bleed-ing. Michael was going to have to go to get help, possibly leaving his wife’s life in his young son’s hands.

Michael told John, “just keep talk-ing to her,” Lopashanski said, don’t let her fall asleep. Then he began the 2.3-mile run to the Appalachian Mountain Club’s Cold River Camp-ground on Route 113.

At the campground Michael found a host with a radio to call in the rescue, and then he turned around

and ran the 2.3 miles back to his injured wife and son.

“The son kept pressure the entire time,” Lopashanski said.

With a report of that severity, rescuers pull out all the stops, and Wednesday was no exception. Mem-bers of the Lovell Fire Department, Fryeburg Fire Department, Saco Valley Fire Department, U.S. Forest Service, Mountain Rescue Service, Androscoggin Valley Search and Rescue, North Conway Ambulance, New Hampshire Fish and Game and New Hampshire National Guard all converged on the area by 3 p.m.

A team hiked in with a litter and medical supplies, Lopashanski said, to fi nd April had regained con-sciousness. They packaged her and coordinated an extrication by heli-copter with the fl ight crew from the National Guard. She was fl own to Memorial Hospital, he said, where she was evaluated and treated. She was released Thursday afternoon.

“The son deserves a lot of credit,” Lopashanski said. He was left alone with his injured mother and did what he needed to do.

The Kearney family could not be reached for comment Thursday.

Michael told John, “just keep talking to her,”

Lopashanski said, don’t let her fall asleep. Then he began the 2.3-mile run to the Appalachian Mountain Club’s Cold River Camp-

ground on Route 113.

The Summer Reading ShelfIthaca Bound

As I write this, Thursday, the 25, of August 2011, the summer has less than a month to go before it gives way to autumn. Autumn, along with spring, is a favorite time of year.

Regardless of the time of year, however, some reading that takes away my security blanket, challenges my thinking, and adds to my store of knowledge is never far from my side. This has been made even easier now that I own an I-pad and can carry several books around with me in one small device.

As my regular readers know, my reading is mostly in the fi eld of non-fi ction, and a review of this summer’s reading confi rms that life-long interest in learning. Perhaps something of what I have read - or am reading - will interest you, too.

Two of the books on my I-pad reading shelf are by Thomas Cahill: “Sailing the Wine-Dark Sea: Why the Greeks Matter;” and “ The Gifts of the Jews: How a Tribe of Desert Nomads Changed the World.” For anyone who is the least bit interested in why those of us living in the Western world, and espe-cially here in the United States, think and act as we do, these two books provide a great deal of thought. One need not agree with all of Cahill’s conclusions, but one cannot look at our country without recognizing the enor-mous infl uence for good or for ill both these peoples have had on it since its founding.

Jeff Shaara’s books on America’s wars are novels, and therefore classifi ed as fi ction. But no one can read them without recogniz-ing the enormous amount of research the man has done in order to write with the You-Are-There authenticity that characterize his gripping, page-turning style. His characters, both the historically real and the true-to-life, but fi ctional products of his imagination, are fl awlessly portrayed.

This summer’s reading included “No Less Than Victory,” the third and fi nal book of his trilogy on the Second World War, as it unfolded in Europe, and “The Final Storm:

A Novel of the War in the Pacifi c.” History encompasses a sizeable part of my reading. In my opinion, no degreed historian brings history alive with the same degree of realis-tic immediacy as Jeff Shaara. I own and have read everything he has ever written.

Adam Hochschild’s “To End All Wars: A Story of Loyalty and Rebellion” caught my attention while browsing in a bookstore a couple of month ago. When I got back home, I immediately purchased it for download on my I-pad.

Centered largely on the home front issues, personalities, and actions of Great Britain’s government and its dissenters during the First World War, it is highly recommended reading for anyone who wants to know how unconscionably truth can be trampled on in time of war. A saying I came across a while back sums it nicely. “It is dangerous to be right when the government is wrong.”

It is not an easy book to read, moving quite slowly at times. But I found it well worth the effort. One comes away, too, with a clearer understanding of how the world events of the past century were in large measure shaped by the vindictive and ill-thought through decisions made by the Allies at the war’s end.

On the uplifting side, I fi nally got around to reading two of Paulo Coelho’s highly acclaimed works: “The Alchemist” and “The Pilgrimage.” Both short and both spiritually centered, one comes to their fi nal passages with a warm glow and a renewed sense of what is possible if one remains true to one’s dreams. A bit too syrupy for some, perhaps, but Coelho’s own simple faith in his fellow human beings shines through on every page.

That’s a sampling of what I have been reading this summer. Do feel free to write and let me know what you are reading.

Mayor’s Report, August 20 2011

Guest ColumnMayor Paul Grenier

Labor Day is almost here, and you know what that means. Children in Berlin, Gorham and Milan areas are headed back to school. We all must take a moment to exercise extreme cau-tion when driving near school and bus zones. Please, when in these areas, put down the cell phones and look, look, look!

Most kids haven’t seen their school chums for a couple months and in the excitement of getting back to school, lapses of judgement are bound to occur.

Have you all seen Brown School lately? There have been many new windows installed that are both great looking and ultra energy effi -cient. The best part is that the work was done in-house by school maintenance employees. The project saved tens of thousands of dollars, but more importantly, it shows that when city employees accept the operational changes nec-essary to increase effi ciency, their job security isenhanced. More needs be done like this, as we begin to lay out plans to fi gure out how to best tackle our street condition problems. It is time

we maximize the labor talents we have in our various departments for job security sake.

Berlin certainly got a big boost last week with the announcement from Governor Lynch’s offi ce that fi nally, fi nally, Station’s legal hurdles have been cleared. It is time for a construction closing and a ribbon cutting ceremony!

I’ve working hard to make this happen in Berlin, but my efforts don’t hold a candle to the tireless hours put in by DRED Commissioner George Bald and Governor Lynch himself. Governor Lynch stood very tall in the darkest hours of this ordeal, and demonstrated true leadership. Coos County is very fortunate to have John Lynch as governor. He dedicated any and all resources necessary to get this deal done, his direct intervention made the differ-ence. Governor, if you are reading this, from the bottom of my heart, thank you for your efforts of the last six months. Patriarch Partners and Gorham Paper and Tissue as well as Cate Street Capital and Berlin Station are here and

investing here because of your direct efforts. May God Bless you my friend!

You can count me in as a strong supporter of City Councillor Ducha-rme. I’ve had the honor serving Berlin in some offi cial capacity for over 20 years. I have served with many people over the years, some were Monday night servants, others who had very spotty attendance records to still others who served singular personal agendas. None were very helpful to make to Berlin a better place, and often times, actually hurt Berlin’s efforts. I could not more proud of the present Berlin City Council. Everyone brings a uniqueness and perspective that really makes things work. Com-promise is actually a nice word!

Dori Ducharme brings a fi nancial perspective that intensely valuable. She is still somewhat new, but works very hard to make Berlin better. People make mistakes in their lives and we all have to be accountable but

at what point does it become overkill? She should NOT resign, Berlin needs a person of her talents.

Remember, she has a family, kids, a home in Berlin. I judge her on her efforts, her sincerity, knowledge. From where I sit, Berlin is very lucky to have a public servant like Dori.

Finally, The Notre Dame Arena is making ice! The arena board spent $25,000 this year, upgrading the ice plant operations. The older compres-sor was rebuilt, the brine pumps and their electric motors were replaced as well as new operational control panels installed. The inside of rink area was also repainted a light color instead of green. I want to thank Scott Turmel, Paul Laborgne and of course, Joe Accardi for selfl essly volunteering hundreds of hours get us ready.

It was great news to hear that the Berlin Youth Hockey Association had one of the biggest pre-registration efforts in recent memory Can’t beat those hockey moms!

Until September.

BERLIN -- Tri-County CAP’s Adult Day Care program is hosting a family support education session Tuesday evening August 30, at the Berlin Senior Center. The session called “Caring for the Caregiver”, will be pre-sented by Jane Galloway, from Min-eral Springs Care and Rehabilitation of North Conway. Jane has worked in senior wellness for over 25 years and was also a Nursing Home Administra-tor.

The presentation is open to the public at no cost, from 5:30 to 7 p.m. The topic outlines the subject of great importance for caregivers; taking time out for themselves, so that they can provide care and remain healthy as a caregiver. “Many people who are providing care to others such as their

parents or loved ones are juggling a lot in their lives and tend to neglect themselves” according to Galloway, “this presentation will help to remind them how important it is to take care and remain a healthy person so they can give care to others.”

This event is part of the Berlin Sup-port Group for those providing care to loved ones who suffer from memory loss and dementias such as Alzheim-er’s disease. The group is part of the Adult Day Care program and meets monthly on the fourth Tuesday at the Berlin Senior Center in the AG Com-munity Center on the east side.

For more information on the adult day program or to RSVP for “Caring for the Caregiver” please call 753-3336.

Gov. Lynch, state agencies preparing for Hurricane Irene

CONCORD – Gov. John Lynch Thursday met with state emergency management offi cials and agency heads to ensure New Hampshire is doing all it can to prepare for the arrival of Hurricane Irene this week-end.

Gov. Lynch and state offi cials are also closely coordinating with local emergency offi cials to ensure the state’s preparedness for the impend-ing storm. The Governor has directed the state Emergency Operations Center to be opened.

“While the exact path and sever-ity of the storm remain uncertain, it is clear New Hampshire will expe-rience a signifi cant weather event this weekend and I urge everyone to be prepared,” Gov. Lynch said. “It is important that all New Hampshire citizens and visitors monitor the sit-uation closely and make necessary preparations.”

State emergency management offi cials recommended the following hurricane precautions be taken by all New Hampshire residents and visitors:

* Hurricanes can be unpredictable in terms of their exact pathway, wind strength and rainfall. The public should monitor weather information from the National Weather Service, radio and TV broadcasts and Inter-net sources.

* Loose objects in your yard, such as toys and lawn furniture, should be secured.

* As with all major natural events, ensure there is three days supply of water, non-perishable food and other supplies in your home.

* Prepare for power outages by ensuring working fl ashlights and fresh batteries, and a battery pow-ered radio. If you have a genera-tor, ensure that it is professionally installed and can be operated with-out causing a health hazard. Please report outages to your electric utility.

* Follow the direction of your local emergency offi cials.

For more information regarding the approaching hurricane and what steps should be taken in advance of the storm, please go to www.readynh.nh.gov.

Governor urges all NH citizens to make necessary preparations for major weather event

Moose antler carvings by Karen Patry on display at AVH Auxiliary’s Art Gallery

Antler carvings by Karen Patry are on display at AVH.

BERLIN -- The Androscoggin Valley Hospital Auxiliary is pleased to pres-ent Milan’s resident, Karen A. Patry, as the featured Artist of the Month with her stunning moose antler carv-ings currently on display at AVH. Her exhibit is part of the on-going rotating art program that is in its third year of honoring noted artists.

Patry took up antler carving three years ago. However, her work looks as if this gifted artist has been creating and improving her work over a life-time.

Patry said, “It all started about ten

years ago when we were driving on a dirt road and found a moose antler in the middle of the road.” Her antler fi nd sparked an interest in the beauty of her fi nd. “After that, my husband and I started walking in the woods looking for antlers. Each time we found an antler, it was just as exciting as the fi rst fi nd and it made us want to spend more and more time in the woods looking for them.”

Eventually, their collection grew so large that she began to wonder what she could do with them. Patry began

We hope to capture a shared vision of education in the Androscoggin Valley. How do we share resources in delivering programs and nurture a new culture of collaboration? What about regionalization of our schools? Early childhood education? How do we address the shrinking student populations and dwindling financial resources in order to give our children the best education possible? In collaboration, SAU 20 and SAU 3 were awarded a grant from the Neil and Louise Tillotson Fund of the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation to conduct the community forums.

Citizens are encouraged to attend any and all forums in order to speak, listen and shape the

future of education in the Androscoggin Valley!

We’d like to acknowledge and thank PFG/North-center and SYSCO Foods for their contributions to the après race meal.

Because we are all about volunteerism I must tell you all about some wonderful people who help make that day special. We are so grateful to all these volun-teers: Residents of Shelburne Village, The LaChance-Stolte Family, The Marchands and Karen Moore for taking care of the water stations there, the town of Shelburne employees: Jo Carpenter and Ken Simi-noko, State Police-Troop F, the Androscoggin Valley Amateur Radio Club who watch out for our partici-pants all along the race route and we depend on so much for safety issues, and all of the RSVP volun-teers: Joe Costello, Reny Demers, Warren Johnson, Richard Lavoie, Sandra Lemire, Theresa Lessard, Cecile Provencher, Fred and Julie Smith and Brad and Sue Wyman. You’re what it’s all about and you make good things happen.

I want to say a special “thank you” to Gayle Lawhorn (RSVP volunteer) and Carla Tucker, for doing a little bit of everything and helping to keep the event running smoothly. Belinda Glover and Byron “Bud” Stevens for the absolutely fantastic job you did with signage and safety cones. Thanks to newcomer volunteers Michael Smith and the Heinemanns for watching the bike racks at Wildcat Mountain and tending to a water station; to Colleen and Brad Fren-nette who helped out at the top of the mountain/fi nish line; and to Meghan Beals, John Chabot, Patrick Pike and Ryley White of the Gorham Honor Society for

manning the water stations at Wildcat Mountain. To the Santy family, we’d be lost without you, thanks for helping out with the timing. And thank you, John Campbell for taking care of the railroad crossing and making sure our racers got across the diagonal set of tracks safely. We also want to send out appreciation to Paul Robitaille for capturing the true grit of the Wild-man through photography.

To Mr. Josh Boyd and the entire crew at Wildcat Mountain, there aren’t words to express our gratitude to you for making the Wildman’s last leg and awards ceremony successful. Especially Lesley Kology and the kitchen crew who did a super job with the après race meal, Thomas Prindle, Rick Flynn, Mike Per-reault and the entire mountain maintenance crew, you folks do a superior job for us and we appreciate every bit of it.

I am very grateful to James Demers of NCIA and Jamie O’Neil for keeping the webpage up to date and functional through all our change requests. You do an awesome job. And fi nally to Nancy Malone to whom I can’t say “thank you” enough. Nancy, area coordi-nator for RSVP, assumed responsibility for the entire race day this year as I had another commitment on this weekend. This was a huge responsibility and one she carried out without a hitch. We can’t do this event without all the support we receive and the energy and enthusiasm Nancy puts into this event. For that I am grateful to each and every one of you as well as to all the participants and their support crews who come here year after year to take part in this gruel-ing event and also to enjoy some of what our beauti-ful region has to offer. Your support of Coos County RSVP couldn’t be appreciated more!

“Thank You” all for another successful Wildman Biathlon.

Kathy McKenna, DirectorCoos County RSVP

HOROSCOPE By Holiday Mathis

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You are able to turn even the most “epic fail” into an opportunity for you and yours. Maybe for you there is no such thing as bad luck -- only different kinds of good luck. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’ll love what you can do using modern technology and popular science. The sense of accomplishment and glee you feel confi rm that you were born at exactly the right moment in time. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll be in a mood to exert your physical strength and stamina. You want to know what you can do, and you have energy to burn. Dynamic individuals will be drawn in by your vitality. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You will affect destiny through your con-versational choices. This is no time to stir up controversy and opinion, so stay away from religion, politics and gender-specifi c categories. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It’s almost always easy for you to give because you enjoy the feeling so much. You strive to reach the level of personal development where you never expect anything in return for your generosity. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You think someone needs help, and you offer it before the person has a chance to ask for it. This act of graciousness is one of the reasons people identify you straight away as a gem. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You have faith in others, so you extend the ben-efi t of the doubt wherever possible. The situation will call for you to stand back and watch for a while -- to see how things get handled without you. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’ll

be up for an important role in some-one’s life. It is your previous success in school or family life that qualifi es you for the job, but it’s your careful listen-ing skills and charm that will get you the position. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll be in the mood to take a risk and feel the exhilarating high that comes from putting yourself on the line. Whether or not you win is irrelevant. Your life will improve either way. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). There’s much spinning in your head. Empty it onto a list. This will help you focus on the pleasure in each activity, instead of on remembering what else you must accomplish in order to call this day a success. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The effects of your gallantry and kindheart-edness will endure. As your sign mate and fellow philanthropist John Ruskin suggested, “It is better to be nobly remembered than nobly born.” PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). If you occasionally indulge, the indulgence has a special feeling. Do it too often, and the act ceases to be a treat. It’s a fi ne line, and one you navigate well this week. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Aug. 26). You are happy for the most part, and yet things get better still. This year brings improvement to your intellec-tual, monetary and social status. You have amazing powers of concentration in September and will bound ahead in a study or project. October brings a chance to travel. December brings new purpose. Capricorn and Cancer people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 25, 1, 50 and 35.

DEAR ABBY: My husband purchased a bag of individu-ally wrapped frozen chicken breasts during his lunch break. After work, we took our kids to a concert and didn’t return home until 8 p.m. The bag of chicken was in his trunk for seven hours on a hot summer day. My husband thought it was OK to refreeze the meat and feed this to our kids, ages 6 and 2. I adamantly disagreed. What are your thoughts? We’ve had this argument before. -- NO WAY! IN SAN JOSE DEAR NO WAY!: Your husband is SERIOUSLY off base. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, “cold food” -- such as chicken, fi sh, raw meat -- should be purchased just before leaving the market and the shopper should plan to drive directly home. Always refrigerate perishable food with-in two hours, and when the temperature is above 90 degrees Fahrenheit, it should be refrigerated within one hour! Food left in the car for the length of time your husband did is no longer fi t for human consumption and could have made your children seriously ill. Readers, for the answers to food safety questions, the USDA can be contacted on the Internet at AskKaren.gov. Sub-mit a question there and it will be answered. The USDA also has a Meat and Poultry Hotline, (888) 674-6854, which is open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. DEAR ABBY: My ex-husband and I divorced seven years ago. He has remarried, and I also recently married again. He is still bitter toward me. His emotional abuse was partly to blame for our split, although I was not entirely without fault. I made mistakes, too, which I regret. Two of my children hold me responsible for the divorce and continually throw my mistakes back in my face. I walk on eggshells around them. I have apologized repeatedly and asked their forgiveness. I’m afraid of losing contact with my grandchildren every time one of my kids becomes upset

about the past. I have been to counseling, but was told I just have to be happy with me. Is there a way my children can fi nally forgive me for the past? I’m not a bad person, just a fl awed one. -- HUMAN IN ONTARIO, CANADA DEAR HUMAN: We’re all fl awed, including your chil-dren. If they are determined that blame for the divorce falls solely on you, while absolving your emotionally abusive hus-band, nothing you or I can do will change their minds. You have paid your therapist good money for the sensible advice you received, so please heed it. The longer you con-tinue to walk on eggshells and tolerate the treatment you are receiving, the longer it will continue. Concentrate on your own life, and far more happiness will result than what you’re experiencing now. DEAR ABBY: Many letters you print come from women who seem shocked because they’ve ended up with men who have little or no character. However, I have never dated a man who could hide his true colors longer than six months. You often advise these women to seek counseling or an at-torney, but for the millions of women who haven’t yet made these mistakes, how about a shout-out for prevention? Amaz-ingly, not getting legally attached and not allowing yourself to become pregnant by a man you’ve known only a few weeks isn’t considered common sense anymore. The heart is ungovernable, but people do have absolute control over using birth control and getting married. What percentage of women’s problems do you think could be avoided if, for the fi rst year of dating someone, they used birth control 100 percent of the time and didn’t rush to get married? -- PERPLEXED IN PEORIA DEAR PERPLEXED: I’d say about 50 percent -- but I may be underestimating by a long shot.

researching moose antlers and saw some beautiful antler carvings. She asked a carpenter what tools she could use to carve antlers. She learned that a Dremel could probably do the job. She went online to see what a Dremel was and how to use one. Patry also purchased a book of instructions and after many broken bits and burned-out tools, she began to see her efforts turn into a work of art.

Her subjects consist of wildlife and nature’s surroundings. Each piece takes an average of 30 hours. How-ever, the fi nished product is worth the time and effort and the white dust

that covers her from head to toe. Of course, she wears a respirator while working.

For her and her husband, fi nding antlers in the woods is still a thrill. “I have seen so many interesting things in the woods over the years and seeing the fi nished carvings is my favorite part of the process,” said Patry.

Patry’s work will be on display during the entire month of August. The public is welcome to view her works at the hospital’s art gallery which is in the fi rst fl oor cafeteria.

Each month, the rotating art pro-gram features an artist and his/her

respective works for public viewing inside AVH. Currently the art dis-plays have been booked for the entire year 2012. However, there are open-

Amy Howry 10/6/1984 - 8/28/2008

We will always remember Amy’s smile, her love for family and

children, and her love for Jesus.

Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance. 1 Corinthians 13:4-7

She looked at three grand schemes — a proposed Presidential Skyline Drive, the Pontook hydro-electric plant, and Granite Reliable Power's wind farm.

A set of hotels became home to early pathmakers and trailblazers in the White Mountains. Randolph, as a result, is both a picturesque summer destination and "just another dirt road." The story, and picture, of the "two Randolphs" can be found in the way each Randolphian describes

their own Randolph, in the trails and weather and events they refer to in interviews, oral histories, and their own writing.

1 p.m. — “White Mountain Art His-tory and Nature”: Bob Cottrell will present this illustrated talk focus-ing on Pinkham Notch, Shelburne, Gorham, Randolph and Jefferson.

Forecasted storm cancels Riverside Speedway racing for SaturdayGROVETON -- The forecast of a

major storm to hit the New England area has the management team at Riverside Speedway canceling racing activities for Saturday August 27.

“We are pulling the plug early so that our race teams can prepare their homes for one of the biggest storms of the year,” said general manager, Jean LeBlanc. “The forecasts are for heavy rains and gusty winds starting as early Saturday evening. I am sure the fans in our area will be bracing for

the storm as well as our race teams. We will prepare the speedway for the heavy rains and move items out of harms way. We are not racing during the Lancaster Fair weekend, that will give racers two weeks to prepare for their fi nal point races.”

The cancellation of Saturday’s event will move the Bond Auto Parts Make-A-Wish night, to run in combi-nation with Jiffy Mart night. “We will announce what will be going on for Saturday night September 10,” said

SPORTS –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

LeBlanc. “It will be a huge event with a few divisions experiencing some dis-tance racing. We will of course see the third segment of the Bond Auto parts triple Crown series. The Angels will be looking at triple 25 lap races, and the Cyclones will be running a 100 lapper for their third and fi nal round of their triple crown series. Add to that, the Outlaws, Dwarfs, and the Daredevils and your racing will be action packed. There is a rain date if necessary for Sunday September 11, at 1 p.m.”

LeBlanc continued,”We are also saying thank you to our fans and offer-ing a fan appreciation night, where two adults will get in for the price of one.”

The pit gates will open at noon with practice starting at 1:30 p.m. The racing will begin at 4 p.m. The next event will be a test and tune ses-sion on Friday September 9, from 5-8 p.m. The track is always available for test and tune sessions by calling the speedway at 603-636-2005.

NC Men’s Basketball League resultsBERLIN/GORHAM -- (9-1) Morneau Travel 66

vs. (3-7) Caron Building Center 58 Caron Build-ing Center fought hard with the fi ve players they had on the fl oor. However, the talented Morneau Travel team went on to win the playoff simulated contest 66-58.

The 2-3 zone defense of the Builders kept Mor-neau Travel out of the paint and made it diffi -cult for the 8-1 Vacationer squad to take it to the rim and score. Dimitri Giannos led Caron’s with 17 points. Morneau Travel held their 10 point lead for most of the game, but was unable to put Caron’s away. Griffi n Roy and Dylan Curry led Morneau Travel club with 12 points a piece.

(5-5) Isaacson Steel 80 vs. (2-8) Tough Guys 76In the best game of the night. Isaacson Steel

pulled off a close one against divisional opponent the Tough Guys. Although Isaacson Steel led the whole game, the Tough Guys fought back and got the game to within two points. Anthony Bathalon made a key steal with under 30 seconds and hit the layup to put Isaacson’s up by 4 points. Jeremy Michalik’s 28 points and Roland Arsenault’s 23 points kept the Tough Guys in the game, how-ever the even scoring of Isaacson’s with 16 points

from Chris Therrien, gave the Steelers the win and second place in their division.

(5-5) North Country Dental 126 vs. (0-10) Cross Machine 71

Jake Drouin and North Country Dental took it to Cross Machine. Drouin set an all-time NCMBL record for scoring with 12 threes and 65 points. Bobby Simpson’s 27 points and Rod Swift’s 24 points kept North Country Dental at the 500 mark for this year.

In a battle for the best record in the South division, Mr. Pizza again came out on top uti-lizing an 84-62 victory.

Mourneau Travel, T & C Motor Inn squads advance to NCMBL fi nals

BERLIN/GORHAM -- NCMBL Semi-Finals

Morneau Travel 107 vs. Caron Building Center 90

After keeping the game close for 30 minutes with their tough 2-3 zone the Caron Building Center team tired at the end of the game in their attempt to have the biggest upset of the tourna-ment. Caron’s Dimitri Giannos netted 29 points and team mate Yiram Vil-lanueva’s 20 points to lead the Build-ers squad. However Morneau’s Damon Ness’s sizzled for 30 points along with Spencer Hill’s and Don Picard’s 23 and 22 markers respectively proved to be to much offensive fi re power for the Caron Team. Morneau Travel took

the 17 point victory to win the North Division and move on to the NCMBL Finals.

Town and Country 78 vs. Mr. Pizza 76

Town and Country looked as if they were ready to take the game right from the start after losing to Mr. Pizza twice in the regular season. Mr. Pizza had other ideas and fought back keeping the game close. Big man Zack Donaldson’s 20 points came off an unbelievably high shoot-ing percentage. On the other side of the ball Curtis Arsenault dropped 38 points and singlehandedly took the win from Mr. Pizza coming down the stretch. The win takes T+C to the 2011 NCMBL Finals and gets them the South Divisional Crown.
