Water Works budget calls for no water rate increaseBERLIN – The Berlin Water Works

Commission outlined its proposed 2012 budget Wednesday night and promised no increase in water rates for the 14th straight year.

The commission is proposing a budget of $4.41 million for fi scal 2012.

Water Superintendent Roland Viens said the department will continue to balance its budget by using its own workers to do system improvement work funded by vari-

ous grants and loans. In 2012, the budget calls for the department to use $2.2 mil-

lion in so-called “forced account income”. That forced account work will continue for the next three years.

Viens said the most signifi cant fi nan-cial issue facing the department continues to be its high debt load which next fi scal year will range around $7.2 million. But, he said, that load is decreasing and should be manageable when the bonds taken out in the early nineties are paid off by 2015. The start-up of the federal prison should

help the revenue picture as well the start-up of the proposed Laidlaw/Berlin Station biomass plant.

Viens listed fi ve major projects for the year. He said the department will continue to replace old water mains, complete the Godfrey Dam rebuild, and upgrade the Brown Farm well. It is also upgrading the offi ce and garage and making green improvements that will allow the depart-ment to reduce its electric bill to zero.

“We have a busy year ahead of us,” Viens said.

Firefi ghters ask council not to cut forceBERLIN – The fi re department budget

drew most of the attention at Wednesday night’s hearing on the city council’s pro-posed fi scal 2012 budget.

A contingent of fi re fi ghters turned out to plead for a lager appropriation to avoid cutting two positions on the force in what was otherwise a sparsely attended public hearing.

Mayor Paul Grenier opened the hear-

ing by outlining the challenges facing the council as it puts together a fi scal 2012 budget.

Stressing the $31,319,727 general fund budget presented was not fi nal, Grenier noted it would increase the tax rate by 68 cents. It would also eliminate four and a half positions. At the same time, he said the amount of unpaid property taxes now totals over $1.3 million – a sign, he said, that the community is struggling.

He said the council is trying to fi nd the

balance between maintaining services and a quality education system with the com-munity’s ability to pay.

“That’s the dilemma this council is facing,” he said.

The proposed budget is $535,943 less than the budget presented by City Man-ager Patrick MacQueen and $203,848 less than the present budget.

Grenier said the council will have a better idea of the fi nal numbers in three

cause of rise in obesity

SAYWHAT...By working faith-fully eight hours a

day you may eventually get to be boss and work twelve hours a day.”

—Robert Frost

(NY Times) — Looking beyond poor eating habits and a couch-potato life-style, a group of research-ers has found a new culprit in the obesity epidemic: the American workplace.

A sweeping review of shifts in the labor force since 1960 suggests that a sizable portion of the national weight gain can be explained by declining physical activity during the workday. Jobs requiring moderate physical activ-ity, which accounted for 50 percent of the labor market in 1960, have plummeted to just 20 percent.

The remaining 80 per-cent of jobs, the research-ers report, are sedentary or require only light activity. The shift translates to an average decline of 120 to 140 calories a day in physi-cal activity, closely match-ing the nation’s steady weight gain over the past fi ve decades, according to the report, published Wednesday in the journal PLoS One.

Today, an estimated one in three Americans are obese. Researchers cau-tion that workplace physical activity most likely accounts for only one piece of the obesity puzzle, and that diet, lifestyle and genetics all play important roles.

JOPLIN, Mo. (NY Times) — The number of people missing after a tornado devastated this city has been reduced to 232 from about 1,500, offi cials said Thursday, as fi refi ghters continued to work their way through mounds of broken concrete and twisted metal that were once homes and shops but that may now be conceal-ing dozens of bodies, four days after the tornado touched down here.

The list of the missing — which was released Thursday — was narrowed down and complied, offi cials said, by using records from temporary

shelters, hospital logs and cellphone use.State and local authorities, however, were

not able to say precisely how many of the 232 people listed as missing were also among the 125 people who had been declared dead. Offi -cials would only say that not all of the dead had been listed among the 232 missing.

The tally of the missing has been anxiously awaited by family members for days, but in some ways the announcement confused, rather than clarifi ed, what families have said has been a painful process.

Missouri offi cials release list of missing

(NY Times) — Ratko Mladic, the former Bosnian Serb gen-eral accused of war crimes including masterminding the massacre of some 8,000 Muslim men and boys at Sre-brenica in 1995, has been cap-tured in Serbia after more than 15 years as one of the world’s most wanted fugitives.

President Boris Tadic of Serbia announced the arrest in

Belgrade on Thursday, giving few details. Televised images showed Mr. Mladic from behind, shuffl ing unsteadily into a Belgrade courtroom.

Serbian news reports said that Mr. Mladic, now 68, had been living under the name of Milorad Komadic and that he was captured in the small farming town of Lazarevo in Vojvodina, the Serbian prov-

ince north of Belgrade, after authorities received a tip that the man known as Komadic resembled Mr. Mladic and had identifi cation documents with that name. Witnesses said he was not wearing a beard or any disguise, but had aged con-siderably, appearing older and thinner than the stout, self-assured professional soldier last seen in public in 2006.

Judge strikes down Wis. law curbing unions

(NY Times) — Ruling that Repub-licans in the State Senate had vio-lated the state’s open meetings law, a judge in Wisconsin dealt a blow to them and to Gov. Scott Walker on Thursday by granting a permanent injunction striking down a new law curbing collective bargaining rights for many state and local employees.

Judge Maryann Sumi of Dane County Circuit Court said the Senate vote on March 9, coming after 13 Democratic state senators had fl ed the state, failed to comply with an open meetings law requir-ing at least two hours notice to the public. The Wisconsin Supreme Court is scheduled to hear argu-ments in the case on June 6 , and Republican lawmakers are hoping that the court overturns Judge Sumi’s ruling and reinstates the law.

The State Senate could choose simply to pass the bill again while assuring proper notice. But some political experts say there might be some obstacles to re-enacting the vote because some Democrats could conceivably fl ee the state again, and some Repub-lican Senators are frightened about pending recall elections.

Speaker puts off veto override vote on right-to-work bill

CONCORD — A widely antici-pated House vote to override a veto of the right-to-work bill never hap-pened Wednesday.

Majority Leader D.J. Bettencourt. R-Salem, said in explana-tion, “The Speaker looked at the House and who is present today and deter-mined this is not the appropriate time.”

Attendance in the House is at one of its highest levels of the year, with more than 375 members casting votes on most bills.

The decision was a likely indica-tion that Speaker of the House Wil-liam O’Brien could not round up the two-thirds supermajority he needs to override Gov. John Lynch’s veto of House Bill 474.

O’Brien’s attempt to close the House session without a veto vote prompted debate, but Republican members backed up the Speaker and

he proceeded to wrap up business.Unions complained, saying

O’Brien should be interested in holding a vote when attendance is highest, not when members who side with him are on hand are ready to vote.

HB 474 prevents unions from col-lecting partial dues pay-ments from non-members. The payments are meant to cover the costs of nego-tiating and enforcing labor contracts that must cover members and non-mem-bers alike.

Those who favor right-to-work the bill say it pre-vents workers from being

forced to join unions, but organized labor says court rulings prevent forced membership.

AFL-CIO president Mark MacK-enzie, accompanied by about 75 members of several unions, criti-cized O’Brien for the delaying tactic.

“What’s he waiting for? The only reason he can be waiting is to play games with this,” MacKenzie said.

Too Sad And SentimentalIthaca Bound

The cacophony of the fi erce battle had drowned out the cries of pain and the calls for help from the wounded, and the rasps of the dying. As would be so often true, the sound and fury of the day’s fi ghting had not produced a clear winner or loser, and both sides had returned, subdued now, to the relative quiet and safety of their respective camps.

As the evening wore on and thoughts of lost friends and comrades fi lled the hearts of the living, a war-weary, but clear, baritone voice could be hear coming from the Union camp. The song was a quiet song, a thoughtful and sober-ing song, a longing song, rich with emotion.

The song carried through the night air to the Confederate camp, not far away. Quiet settled over the camp, as lonely ears listened. Yes, they understood. The song’s message of longing for home and family and for the war to be over was universal.

A young lad in grey began to pick up the tune and the words, and his youthful tenor voice joined the Union camp’s baritone. Soon, it was a song sung by both sides of the brutal and bloody battle for America’s soul. Little did the singers know that just a few month’s earlier the song had been rejected for publication because it was felt to be “too sad and sentimental.”

The story goes that on the night before he was to be inducted into the Union army, in 1863, Merrimack, New Hampshire’s Walter Kittredge (1834-1905), a regionally-known bal-ladeer of his day, had poured out his own feel-ings of leaving home and family in a song that, it is said, never had a note of it changed. Kit-tredge tried to sell his song for $15.00 to the Oliver Ditson Company of Boston, a prominent music published of the day.

“Too sad and sentimental,” he was told. “There’s nothing to it.”

But Kittredge’s friend, Asa Hutchinson, a member of the Hutchinson Family Singers, a

highly popular and beloved singing group of the era, knew otherwise. Approached again, this time by a nationally known and popular musi-cian, the Ditson Company agreed to publish “Tenting on the Old Camp Ground,” the song’s true title, although it is often called “Tenting Tonight on the Old Camp Ground.” The song was destined to become one of America’s – and the world’s – most beloved songs.

Sung for the fi rst time at an outdoor concert in Lynn, Massachusetts, by the famed Hutchin-son Family Singers, with whom Walter Kit-tredge frequently performed, the song became an instant hit. Within six months, the song had sold over 10,000 copies, and within two years, both Kittredge and Asa Hutchinson had real-ized a thousand dollars a piece in royalties.

The song that was “too sad and sentimen-tal” did not die at war’s end. Walter Kittredge’s beloved tune was performed in Philadelphia, during the country’s great Centennial Celebra-tion, in 1876, and, fi ttingly so, held an honored place at the Great Soldiers’ Reunion, in Wash-ington, D. C., in 1892.

The Merrimack balladeer wrote over 500 songs in his lifetime, many of them dealing with America’s great struggle to fi nd its own soul. There were titles such as “Scatter the Flowers over the Blue and Gray” and “Sing the Old War Songs Again.” But the song that was composed in one night in a personally infl uenced burst of inspiration would be Kittredge’s lasting legacy. “Tenting on the Old Camp Ground,” the song that was at fi rst thought to be “too sad and sentimental,” struck – and still strikes to this day – a responsive chord in the hearts of people everywhere.

Somewhere, Walter Kittredge must surely be smiling.

call our community home. Lately, we have been let down by these industries.

We all remember the promises that the federal prison project made. They were going to hire local New Hampshire people to build their facility. I was lucky enough to get in on a relatively small portion of that project, but what I saw there shocked me. With so many of my friends, neighbors and fellow ironwork-ers out of work, I could not believe the amount of out of state workers brought in to build that prison. I saw folks from Florida, Maine, Massa-chusetts, Vermont, North Carolina, Virginia, Arizona, Kentucky, Ten-nessee, Mississippi, Arizona, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Georgia, South Caro-lina, New Brunswick and probably many others.

I am sick of being walked on by these out of state contractors. If New Hampshire is where they want

to build, then it should be New Hampshire people hired to do the work.

RMT’s claim that the wind turbine project requires specialty workers is a cop out. We have the skilled workforce to erect those turbines. In fact we have over 250 ironwork-ers who have completed three year apprenticeships that cover every specialized aspect of wind turbine erection. The Lempster wind farm and the turbine at the Grand Moun-tain View Resort were both erected without incident by local workers. If RMT doesn’t think we’re good enough to work for them, maybe we should ask if they are good enough to be here.

Let’s not allow what happened at the prison to ever happen again. RMT and Brookfi eld Renewable Power, this isn’t how we treat our neighbors in New Hampshire.

Barry Conservation Camp is operated by the UNH Cooperative Extension 4-H Program in cooperation with the NH Department of Fish and Game. It is located in the White Mountain National Forest at the Berlin Fish Hatchery.

the society’s value to the community.The Gorham Historical Society is

seeking an abatement for its 2010 taxes on the museum’s $78,700 assessment. The society normally receives an exemption from its prop-erty taxes as a non-profi t but forgot to fi le the paperwork for its exemp-tion and was issued a bill.

Reuben Rajala, the organization’s president, said, in the written request to the board, that due to limited vol-unteer time, the exemption paper-work wasn’t fi led on time. He added he likewise forgot to mail the abate-ment request before the deadline.

Rajala wrote that he accepts full responsibility for not resolving these issues in a timely fashion.

“While the Historical Society has the resources to pay such a property tax bill, it would severely deplete our reserve funds, which are very lim-ited,” wrote Rajala in his request.

Robitaille said he’s not fond of this situation but felt the board should agree to consider the abatement.

Graham too wasn’t fond of the situ-ation either, but felt he wanted to see more of the organization’s fi nancial paperwork and get a better grasp on the situation before considering the

abatement.Graham said it’s not that he doesn’t

think the society contributes a lot to the community, but he feels there are some unanswered questions.

“I can understand your feelings,” said Robitaille. “I think this was done a little shoddy.”

However, Robitaille said the soci-ety is a major attraction to the town and brings a lot of people into the community.

Robitaille said he doesn’t like doing this, but he’s willing to con-sider the request.

Resident Mike Waddell said the society only has a handful of really active volunteers that handle the administrative jobs. He added not considering the request would burden the group with a cost it couldn’t afford with its minimal budget.

“I don’t think it serves the public’s good to deny the request,” said Wad-dell.

The organization’s funds mostly come from its members and the annual appropriation from the town so it’s all taxpayers’ money. He added the not granting the abatement would take away what little money the organization has to operate.

Forever in our hearts

A million times we needed you, A million times we cried, If love alone would have saved you, You never would have died.

If life we loved you dearly, In death we love you still, In our hearts you hold a place, No one can ever fill.

It broke our hearts to lose you, But you did not go alone, A part of us went with you, The day God called you home.

You precious memories are for our keepsakes, with which we never part, God has you safely in His keeping, But we have you forever in our hearts.

Sadly missed by wife and family

Two Coos County residents achieve certifi cation as Connect suicide prevention trainers

COOS COUNTY - On May 2, and 4, Anne Carter of Berlin and Yuliya Ovchinnikova of Whitefi eld attended a two- day training to become certifi ed Connect™ Suicide Prevention trainers. Connect™ is a nationally-recognized best practice program developed by the New Hampshire Chapter of the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI NH) that provides suicide prevention training and sup-port services to communities and key service pro-viders throughout the state and nation. Funded by two federal grants and the Neil and Louise Til-lotson Foundation, NAMI NH has trained close to 1,000 people in suicide prevention in Coos County over the past fi ve years and 5,000 in the state of NH. Community partnerships with the Family Resource Center, Groveton Ambulance, and The North Coun-try Health Consortium have been essential to reach-ing out to Coos County residents.

In collaboration with NAMI NH, new Connect™

trainers Carter and Ovchinnikova are looking to offer suicide prevention trainings for commu-nity members in Lancaster (July) and Colebrook (August), and for Faith Leaders in Berlin. If you are interested in attending a training, being notifi ed if a particular training is scheduled, or in scheduling a training for a particular group, please contact Becky McEnany at [email protected]. The trainings are free but registration is required and space is limited.

It is everyone’s responsibility to prevent suicide. Warning signs include: talking about death or dying, isolation, anger/rage, hopelessness, increased use of alcohol or other drugs and mood changes. If you are worried about someone you think is at risk of suicide call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline 1-800-273-TALK (8255). For more information on suicide prevention in NH go to www.theconnectproject.org or www.naminh.org.

BERLIN -- Curves moved to Pleas-ant Street Monday, May 16, in hopes of expanding opportunities for cus-tomers by providing more space and more equipment for the future that will enhance the workout experi-ence at Curves. Linda Canter, owner of Curves for fi ve and a half years, expressed her excitement over the new opening and is thrilled to have her business close to Main Street, which she feels is a better location to fi t her clients’ needs.

Canter mentioned a few programs she provides at Curves; one being her Challenge Eating Program that will begin again on June 13. The program provides a strong workout that raises metabolic rate and teaches customers healthy eating habits. Canter said she has been providing this program for fi ve years and the program has been very successful for her customers.

Two other programs that take place

on Wednesday nights are the zumba and circuit classes. Canter describes the zumba and circuit work outs as successful and fun for all who partici-pate.

Canter praised her staff, claiming that they are awesome people and good workers. She expressed her grat-itude towards David Canter, co-owner of Curves, because he takes care of all the administrative work and fi nances for the business. Clo Berwick, man-ager of Curves, said Linda and David Canter are the best to work for and are fantastic people.

Curves will be hosting an open house on June 4, 8 to 11 a.m. and a membership special will be offered soon (TBA). Curves is a place for women of all ages and is open Monday through Friday, 5 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday 8 to 11 a.m. To reach Curves call (603) 752-9200.

Linda Canter said, “I am really excited, and I think it is going to be good.”

Curves owners Linda and David Canter along with manager Clo Berwick share their expertise with client Rena Boisclair (l).

Curves relocates to Pleasant StreetBY JENNIFER ST. AMANT

weeks as it gets a sense of expenditure and reve-nue surpluses in the present budget that it can use to reduce taxes in the 2012 budget. Grenier said he personally hopes to be able to avoid lay-offs and avoid an increase in the tax rate. Others on the council are pushing for a tax decrease.

Fire Chief Randall Trull lead off the charge for an increase in the fi re department budget. He argued that reducing the size of the fi re force with the aging infrastructure that exists in the city is dangerous for citizens and fi refi ghters. He said reducing the force will impact how quickly fi refi ghters can response to a fi re.

Trull said the city has a good fi re department and said it has been making progressive steps. It has implemented fees for various inspections and services.

Firefi ghter Pat Tremblay asked the council to recon-sider for his safety. Tremblay pointed out he is also a property owner in the city.

The two fi refi ghters whose jobs would be eliminated under the budget, Noah Hallgren and Justin Jacques,

both spoke. Jacques warned cutting staff could result in an increase in injuries as fi re fi ghters try to do too much by themselves.

“We work hard at what we do,” he said.Jacques told the council he has lived in Berlin 27

years and loves the community where he volunteers as a coach. But if the budget goes through, he said he will be laid off.

Public Works Director Michael Perreault reminded the public this is the fourth budget in a row the size of his department has been cut. The 2012 budget calls for a reduction of two people in Public Works. Perreault said maintaining the same level of services will be challenging if his budget is cut again this year.

“We’re going to do the best we can,” he said.The school department is slated to receive a total

operating budget of $17,062,903, $473,831 more than its current budget but $470,000 less than requested.

Superintendent Corrine Cascadden said the district avoided laying off teachers who agreed to go without a pay raise for the next two years and without step or longevity increases next year and made other conces-

sions.Rodney Bengston said the level of delinquent taxes

should tell the council that people are having a hard time. He said other communities like Littleton are laying off people. He suggested the city look at reduc-ing pay increases and benefi ts such as health insur-ance. He said he can’t afford health insurance for himself and his family but his taxes help pay for insur-ance for city employees.

Walter Hansen of Sweden Street encouraged the council to view Berlin as a family and set priorities. He said the country is “in the toilet” and said the city is going to have to learn to make due with less.

Joseph LaPuma said he didn’t mind paying a little more for fi re protection as long as the budget is fair.

Andy Langlois of Church Street said he has lived in southern New England and in Vermont and seen what people pay for taxes there.

“There’s really not a lot to whine and cry about here,” he said.

The council is slated to hold a special council meet-ing on June 13 to pass its fi nal budget.

HOROSCOPE By Holiday Mathis

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You have strong feelings for someone, though you don’t have them all the time -- only when you let yourself. Today, when you are near this person, every-thing seems luminous. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You want to be appreciated for the full range of who you are. But there’s so much to you that some people won’t be able to understand. So you’ll cultivate friend-ships with many different people. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It seems that everyone around you wants to be bigger than life and famous for it. You don’t. You are truly wise, realizing that the ordinary life-sized life is the perfect size to live in an extraordinarily beautiful way. CANCER (June 22-July 22). There are big events on the horizon. The spe-cial dates are to be celebrated in partic-ular ways, and it will all require a great deal of organization on your behalf. Make preparations. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You arrived at this place because you dreamed about it. Some of the dreams were what you wanted, and some were what you didn’t want. The two kinds have col-lided to create this current reality. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You don’t have to sample everything to know what you like and don’t like. You’re intu-itive, and you get a sense about things before you dive in completely. So don’t let anyone pressure you. Believe in your subconscious leanings. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll meet someone who is aligned with your values and principles -- a new and true friend. Not every true friend is this much like you. There are people you love with whom you have far less in common.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You have the key to making money. Instead of merely learning what to do or going through the motions that someone has laid out for you, you take the exact actions that will produce value for others. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There will be people around you who know more and have more success in a certain area. You have more knowledge and expertise in an entirely different realm. So think of yourself as an equal. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your personal power increases at your will. “Keep your chin up” is not merely a metaphor; it’s a physical suggestion that will change the way people treat you today. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your fi rst impulse is usually a generous one, but be careful today not to over-give. You could create an unhelpful depen-dency. Opt to teach others what you know instead of doing it for them. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). A rela-tionship may feel stagnant, but that’s about to change as you ask yourself a magic question: “How can I truly make this person’s life better?” Your musings will produce solutions. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (May 27). You are so attractive, in part because you seize opportunities to improve yourself and radiate happiness. Your community involvement increases in the months to come. You have something to sell, and you’ll bring in more than anticipated for it. A spiritual calling will lead to adven-ture. August and September are roman-tic. Pisces and Aries people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 10, 2, 38 and 4.

DEAR ABBY: While I am not from the South, many of my relatives are. They all were raised in medium to large cities, not rural areas. I’m embarrassed when they use crude terms and call their parents “Ma” and “Pa” in public. These are well-educated people, but they come across sounding like hicks and buffoons. They think it’s funny, but no one outside our family does. If someone laughs with them, it’s because of embarrassment or discomfort. No one else is willing to speak up and when I try to, they make me feel like I’m a spoiled brat. If these people were from rural areas or uneducated/un-cultured I’d understand, but they’re not. The sound of their “fake hickness” is like fi ngernails on a chalkboard! Please help. -- KEEPING IT REAL IN LAGUNA BEACH, CALIF. DEAR KEEPING IT REAL: I’m sorry that visits from your relatives are so painful for you. However, I see nothing wrong with calling one’s parents “Ma” and “Pa” if those are the names they have been called all their lives. Believe me, I have heard parents called much worse. The best advice I can offer would be for you to grow a thicker skin and, if that doesn’t work, spend less time with your relatives. With your attitude, you’ll be doing them a favor. DEAR ABBY: Should I be a bridesmaid in my best friend “Carla’s” ex-husband’s wedding? I’m still friends with him, which is fi ne with Carla. I have also become quite close to his fi ancee, “Jenny.” We have a lot in common and have been hanging out for some time. Jenny has asked me to be in her wedding. I haven’t talked to Carla yet to see how she’d feel about it. I don’t feel like she’ll be completely honest with me. Would I be stabbing her in the back if I’m in the wedding? I need advice, and quick -- the wedding is soon! -- FRIENDS WITH EVERYBODY DEAR F.W.E.: Because you’re concerned about Carla’s re-

action to your being a part of her ex-husband’s wedding, you should address your question to her. My gut reaction is that if it feels to you like it could be stabbing her in the back, it might be perceived that way. DEAR ABBY: What is the protocol for offi ce romances? I have seen so many fl ings and love affairs go on. Sometimes it’s fi ne, but other times it has caused a big distraction. A su-pervisor dating a subordinate is probably frowned upon, but what if they’re in different departments? Should an offi ce romance be kept secret, or out in the open so rumors won’t spread? I have never been a part of this, but I have seen plen-ty. What’s right and wrong? -- CURIOUS IN THE CUBICLE DEAR CURIOUS: There is no “protocol.” Most companies discourage offi ce romances because they’re a distraction and make workers less effi cient. If they happen between a super-visor and a subordinate and it doesn’t work out, it could lead to accusations of sexual harassment and an expensive law-suit. So while the temptation may be there, what’s “right” is to avoid them and what’s “wrong” is to indulge in one be-cause it’s risky business. DEAR ABBY: When closing window blinds for the night, is it normal or proper to close them with the blades or slats in the upward or downward position? My wife and I disagree on this. I maintain they should be closed in the upward posi-tion. What do you or the experts say? -- IN THE DARK IN TEXAS DEAR IN THE DARK: I have never encountered this question, so my staff and I experimented with the mini-blinds in our offi ce, which has many windows. Tilting the slats up blocked more light than when we tilted them down. How-ever, this is not a question of what is “normal” or “proper.” It’s a matter of what works best for you.

Berlin girls sweep Gilford in tennisGILFORD -- The Berlin girls

made a loud statement heading into tournament play, handing undefeated Gilford their first two losses of the season. Those wins placed Berlin as the second seed for tournament play.

and Sarah Anderson was halted because Berlin won the game between #3 seeded doubles part-ners Kathryn Record and Emily Ploudre over Mikayla Clarke and Abby Lines 8-4.

Second Match Results: Berlin 5 Gilford 1

The Berlin girls got their work done prior to playing any doubles’ games, taking fi ve of the six singles matches.

Berlin girls advance to state fi nals with 5-4 win over Profi le

BERLIN -- One of the toughest things in high school sports is to defeat a team three times in one season. The Profi le Patriots beat the Berlin girls’ tennis team 5-4 twice during the regu-lar season. Berlin got their revenge on Wednesday on the Gorham Common, defeating Profi le 5-4 in the semi-fi nal round of the Division III playoffs. It is the second straight year that coach Patty Hood has guided the Lady Moun-taineers to the fi nals. The Berlin girls will face top seeded Bow at Plymouth State University.

In singles, Berlin’s #1 seed Moriah Arsenault beat Isabel Eyman 8-6, second seed Al Aldrich shutout Becca Palmer 8-0, third seeded Mountie Felicia Arse-nault earned her win over Patriot Libby Gaitskill 8-3, #4 ranked player Kathryn Record lost to Cher Christnacht 4-8, freshman Miriam Arsenault lost to

Profi le’s Rachel Johnson 1-8, and Ber-lin’s sixth seed Emily Ploudre defeated Emma Stone 8-4. That gave the Lady Mountaineers a 4-2 lead heading into the doubles action. Berlin needed just one win to move on to the fi nals for the second consecutive year.

In doubles, Berlin was able to advance by their top duo of Moriah Arsenault and Al Aldrich, beating Profi le’s Isabel Eyman and Becca Palmer 8-2. In the other two doubles matches Mounties Felicia Arsenault and Miriam Arsenault lost to Cher Christnacht and Rachel Johnson 4-8, and third seeded Kathryn Record and Emily Ploudre fell to Emma Stone and Meg Dowling 6-8, making the fi nal score 5-4 in favor of Berlin.

“Another exciting day for the girls’ tennis team,” said head coach Hood. “The girls played very well against a tough Profi le team. Having the opportu-nity to play in the fi nals a second year in a row speaks very highly of these girls.”

Wildcat Mountain begins summer operations

PINKHAM NOTCH – Wildcat Mountain opens for summer & fall operations beginning Saturday, May 28, at 10 a.m. offering two major state attractions for the long Memorial Day Weekend including New Hampshire’s only ZipRider zip-line cable ride and the high-est scenic gondola in the state, the Wildcat Express. As a year-round destination located 100 per-cent within the White Mountain National Forest, Wildcat Moun-tain provides both exhilarating and one-of-a-kind opportunities to enjoy views and scenery that have consistently been voted number one in the East.

Wildcat Mountain’s ZipRider combines a safe, one-of-a-kind, flying experience with beauti-ful scenery. With four cable lines that affectively allow for maxi-mum rider capacity, the ZipRider is the only attraction of its kind in New Hampshire and is differ-ent than the canopy zip-line tours familiar to most. For just the cost of a $20 ticket and meeting mini-mum and maximum weight/height requirements, riders will descend just under a half-mile over trails, tree-tops, and the Peabody River at heights of up to 70 feet and speeds that can reach 45 miles per hour before the ZipRider’s automatic braking and a spring stopping system receive the rider com-fortably at the landing platform located a short distance from the Main Base Lodge.

Also unique to Wildcat Mountain, and the only one of its kind in North America, the Wildcat Express has once again transformed from New Hampshire’s fastest and most pow-erful summit quad chairlift during the winter and spring skiing and riding season to the state’s highest summer and fall scenic gondola. Comfortable, enclosed 4-person scenic gondola cabins trans-port guests to the 4,000 foot-plus summit of Wildcat Mountain offer-ing ideal views of Mt. Washington and the Presidential Range. The scenic gondola is the best way for the entire family, including well-behaved canine members on a leash, to enjoy incredible views and scenery. Gondolas run continu-ously, so you don’t wait in any lines.

The ZipRider and scenic gondola will be open as weather permits for weekends only beginning Sat-urday, May 28, and then will begin to operate daily Saturday, June 11, through the spectacular fall foliage in mid-October. Wildcat Mountain also offers hiking, fishing, lift-serviced nine-hole alpine disc golf course, and weekly guided tours and outdoor interpretive programs with the Tin Mountain Conserva-tion Center and Appalachian Moun-tain Club. Food, beer, and wine is offered in the base lodge with fresh “Lunch & Ride” packages available for individuals, families, or groups. All rates and information can be found online at skiwildcat.com or by calling 1-888-SKI-WILD.
