Entertainment center planned for Albert Theatre building

BERLIN — A downtown family enter-tainment center is planned for the Albert Theatre building.

Fran and Paul Cusson presented their plans for the historic building to the plan-ning board last week for a conceptual review.

Paul Cusson reported the building has approximately 20,000 square feet of use-able space on three fl oors. He said the

couple is planning to develop the enter-tainment center in three phases.

The fi rst phase will be to build an 18-hole indoor mini-golf course on the ground fl oor. The fi rst nine holes of the course will be handicap accessible. A small section will be set off with tables for events like birthday parties. To fi t the course entirely on the fl oor, the main entrance into the building will be from the side abutting Moynihan’s law offi ce.

Sheriff’s offi ce uses Facebook to track down most wanted

LANCASTER — The Coos County Sheriff ’s Department has been taking to Facebook recently in an effort to apprehend wanted persons and it’s been working. Two men, both of whom were identifi ed as among Coos County’s most wanted, were apprehended as a result of information provided by the public after the law enforcement agency posted their photos and descriptions on department’s Facebook page.

Sheriff ’s Deputy, Sgt. Keith Roberge,

said that deputy Mike Gentili adminis-ters the Facebook site for the department and had the idea to post wanted per-sons there in order to seek help from the public. “Everybody’s on Facebook now,” Roberge said.

Jason Conley, 39, of Whitefi eld, and Gil-bert Donovan, Jr., 43, of Lancaster, were both apprehended last week on outstand-ing warrants for violating court orders relating to child support cases, Gentili said. In both cases, the public provided aid by sharing information with the Sheriff ’s

Moving Downtown Forward listening session tonight

BERLIN — The public is invited tonight to the second listening ses-sion for the ‘Moving Downtown Forward’ action strategy project.

The session will be held at the Bickford Place (former Rite Aid store) at 145 Main Street, starting at 6 p.m.

The project’s contracted design and economic experts will pres-ent their ideas for revitalizing the city’s downtown and listen to com-ments from the public. Organiz-ers stress input from the public is important because the plan will guide future development of the downtown.

The Moving Downtown For-ward effort is signifi cantly dif-ferent from a typical study. It is a look at “both sides of the coin.” The initiative’s team is uniquely composed of engineering, architec-tural and economic development experts. How downtown looks and functions today will be compared

to how it could be redesigned for tomorrow. An economic assess-ment will also be presented of how downtown works as an eco-nomic center today, and a realistic approach of how it can be better tomorrow.

This initiative has been designed for implementation - for action. The recommendations are required to be real and sustain-able. Each will come with a sug-gested timeline, budget, and will identify an entity that is account-able for its successful implementa-tion.

The time is right. Recent prog-ress in the local economy means that several key downtown prop-erties will soon become “in play”. This is the community’s opportu-nity to be heard now, before fi nal options are selected and a course for the next several decades is

testosterone

SAYWHAT...It is a wise father that knows his

own child.”—William Shakespeare

(NY Times) — This is probably not the news most fathers want to hear.

Testosterone, that most male of hormones, takes a dive after a man becomes a parent. And the more he gets involved in caring for his chil-dren — changing diapers, jiggling the kid on his knee, reading “Goodnight Moon” for the umpteenth time — the lower his testosterone drops.

So says the fi rst large study measuring testoster-one in men when they were single and childless and several years after they had children. Experts say the research has implications for understanding the biology of fatherhood, hormone roles in men and even health issues like prostate cancer.

“The real take-home message,” said Peter Elli-son, a professor of human evolutionary biology at Har-vard who was not involved in the study, is that “male parental care is important. It’s important enough that it’s actually shaped the physiology of men. I think American males have been brainwashed” to believe lower testosterone means that “maybe you’re a wimp, that it’s because you’re not really a man. My hope would be that this kind of research has an impact on the American male. It would make them realize that we’re meant to be active fathers and participate in the care of our offspring.”

1,766U.S. military deaths in

Afghanistan.

(NY Times) — On the 10th anniversary of Sept. 11, 2001, as the nation refl ected on its losses, thousands of families gathered at the new World Trade Center rising in Lower Manhattan, at the Pentagon and on a fi eld of wildfl owers in Pennsyl-vania to commemorate nearly 3,000 killed on that infamous morning when jetliners were turned into missiles and a new age of terrorism was born.

The day’s centerpiece unfolded at ground zero, where more than 10,000 members of the victims’ families, and some dignitaries and their wives, gath-ered in a parklike setting of swamp white oaks and emerald lawns — a strangely futuristic plaza with precisely spaced trees rising from a fi ve-acre granite

fl oor, surrounded by a gouged wasteland of unfi n-ished skyscrapers and silent construction cranes.

In that panorama of resurrection, with the sky-line in the background and the Statue of Liberty in the distance, the families choked back tears, sobbed and cast fl owers into the spillways of sunken gran-ite pools set in the footprints of the fallen towers, and crowded around the bronze parapets of the “voids” where the names of the dead are etched. Family members bent low to touch or kiss the names, and to weep. Many made paper tracings of the names, or inserted fl owers or American fl ags into the crevices, and the parapets were soon thick with the colors and with red and yellow roses.

On 9/11, vows of remembrance

TRIPOLI, Libya (NY Times) — Forces loyal to the deposed Libyan leader, Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi , attacked an important oil refi nery at the Mediterranean port of Ras Lanuf on Monday, the transitional rebel government reported, leaving at least 15 anti-Qaddafi fi ghters dead in the fi rst signifi cant assault by the loyal-ists since they were driven from

the capital nearly four weeks ago.The attack on Ras Lanuf

showed that pro-Qaddafi loy-alists still have the ability to strike, even in areas ostensibly under rebel control, despite their dwindling ability to infl uence the course of the six-month-old Libya confl ict, which has effec-tively vanquished the Qaddafi s and their followers. The govern-

ing body formed by the rebel forces, the Transitional National Council, has assumed the basics of governing the country over the past few weeks and is increas-ingly viewed internationally as the new post-Qaddafi author-ity in Libya. China announced Monday it was recognizing the council, the last of the major powers to do so.

In fl ash of resilience, Qaddafi loyalists attack oil refi nery

In Russian leadership battle, Medvedev hints he lacks fi re

YAROSLAVL, Russia (NY Times) — When President Dmitri A. Medvedev of Russia took the lectern here at his annual politi-cal forum last week, the circles under his eyes suggested he had barely slept.

The audience was waiting to fi nd out who would be ruling Russia next spring, Medvedev or Prime Minister Vladimir V. Putin — a question that has gripped this country for months. Meanwhile, a plane crash had killed this city’s elite hockey team, sending thou-sands of people, weeping, into the streets. What would Medvedev do?

His choice mattered. As the more liberal partner of Russia’s ruling tandem, Medvedev still has power to guide Russia between authoritarianism and reform, though it is ebbing. When the moment came, Medvedev decided to go ahead with his script, a 30-minute discourse on the state’s approach to diversity.

By the time he took his seat, the implication seemed clear: Medvedev was not prepared to fi ght for his job.

Old Man turnbuckle retrieved from mountainsideFRANCONIA — The largest of

the four turnbuckles that held the Old Man of the Mountain in place for decades was retrieved Friday after-noon (Sept. 9) by helicopter from the talus slope below his chin in Franco-nia Notch.

“It fell when the Old Man fell in May 2003 and it’s been there ever since because it is so heavy - it’s about 30 feet long and weighs 600 or 700 lbs.,” said Dick Hamilton, president of the Old Man of the Mountain Legacy Fund, which has, through private donations, created a memorial to New Hampshire’s fallen icon. “We weren’t sure we would ever get it back.”

The turnbuckle will now become a part of the Old Man of the Mountain Profi ler Plaza, which was dedicated in June on the shore of Profi le Lake.

Carl Swenson, a pilot with JBI Helicopter Services in Pembroke, who annually fl ew caretakers to the top of the Old Man each summer for mainte-nance, made the retrieval, lowering a grappling hook and catching it on the turnbuckle on his third try.

After a study in 1915 of the fi ve enormous rocks that made up the profi le showed they were slipping from the ledge, Edward Geddes set out in September 1916 on what was called “scenic surgery” to secure the profi le. The quarryman from Quincy, Mass. used heavy fasteners attached to 2-inch steel rods, drawn tightly by the 3.5-inch turnbuckles, and were anchored to the granite to prevent slipping.

Woman survives close call at Jericho ATV Park

BERLIN — A 74-year old Colum-bia woman survived a close call in an ATV accident Saturday afternoon at Jericho Mountain State Park.

According to N.H. Fish and Game Conservation Offi cer Glen Lucas, Edwina Adair was riding with friends and family at the park for the day when the group decided to take the

Cogswell trail, which is designed as a ‘one way trail.’

At a very steep section of the trail, Adair decided to put her ATV into low range. As she started down the hill, a release issued by Lucas said the ATV “popped out of gear” and headed down the hill at a high rate of speed. Unsuc-

Balsams Grand Resort sale announcedDIXVILLE NOTCH — A group

of Maine investors have stepped for-ward to purchase the Balsams Grand Resort Hotel.

A purchase and sales agreement was signed over the weekend, the Til-lotson Corporation Board of Directors announced Monday.

No details were released about the new investors but the corporation said it hopes to close on the purchase this fall. In a brief release, the board said the new ownership will invest a signifi cant amount in the restoration

and renovation of the property over the winter with the goal of a grand reopening next summer.

“The investment group was selected based on their fi nancial resources, dedication to the future of the Bal-sams and its employees, as well as their commitment to the environment and economy of the North Country,” the release said.

The release said no board inter-views would be available yesterday but more details would be released as

Welcome home local soldiersTo the Editor,It is with great pleasure

that the American Legion Auxiliary Unit #82 in Gorham would like to wel-come all our local soldiers home. Last September when we lined the street of Gorham to wish you a fare well our hearts were heavy with worry that you would all return safely to the North Country. Our prayers were heard and now that you have all returned to your homes and families we would just like to say “Amen” for all of you returning safely back into our Communities arms.

While you were gone I asked the community to please help me with creat-ing a “North Country Hero’s’ Tree” which was unveiled in April 2011. It is located at Sears in Gorham and all Operation “New Dawn” Vet-erans are on that tree. Sears was nice enough to allow us to keep the tree up in their store front for all these months and made sure that the tree was lit every day while you were gone. I truly hope you will be able to view this tree before it is removed the fi rst week of October.

I would like to thank all the management and staff at Sears for allowing this “Heros Tree” to honor all our Veterans past and present to be placed there to acknowl-edged the respect and honor and to say thank you for your sacrifi ce and your fami-lies sacrifi ce that you so gen-erously gave to protect our country.

Roughly 30 years ago a unit returning home from a deployment would have been received in a far different manner. “As an American, I’m very pleased to acknowl-edge how, as a nation, we’ve come to our senses in terms of recognizing the service that you have so generously sacrifi ced.” With minimal sacrifi ce on our part, you have served this nation well and helped to protect our freedom and our way of life. Thank you all for all you gave to us.

A lesser evil?A few years ago, Governor Rick Perry’s

thinly veiled threat to take Texas out of the federal union offered me an irresist-ible teaching moment. I was down in Vir-ginia speaking to a roomful of Civil War enthusiasts, about half of whom were Southerners. My topic was the secession crisis and the opening of the Civil War, so I asked how many in the audience would fi ght to keep Texas in the union if it tried to secede again. Only two of the eighty-or-so people raised their hands — and one of them was a Rice University alumnus who probably didn’t want to have to go through customs to attend the reunions. Evidently I was not the only one in the room who would have been just as happy to see Lone Star seces-sionists put their money where their big mouths are.

That indifference to “losing” Texas may have cued Mr. Perry to the inef-fectiveness of such bravado, so instead of trying to resurrect the Republic of Texas he now seeks the presidency of the United States. Among Republicans he currently commands a more sizable fol-lowing than any of the numerous other candidates, but over the past few weeks Mitt Romney and Michelle Bachmann both seemed to hold that distinction at one point or another, and next month it may be someone else.

Meanwhile, not a single Democrat has made a peep about challenging Barack Obama. The reason is clear: the best hope Democrats have to retain the White House is to rely on Obama’s incumbency, and any Democrat who confronted him would be committing political suicide, at least within the party. In 2004 no Republican challenged a brash and bum-bling George W. Bush, who managed to cling to offi ce through the political use of executive power and privilege. That lesson in party unity is not lost on Dem-ocrats whose candidate came into the Oval Offi ce with the enduring hatred of his opponents, and then squandered the confi dence of his supporters.

It was, ironically, an absence of party loyalty that doomed Obama’s presidency to early disappointment. Had lockstep Republicans held the White House and both houses of Congress, no executive initiative could ever have failed. With Democrats in full control, Obama’s health-care plan still lost the crucial public option while its obnoxious man-datory provision remained paramount. With such resistance within his own

party, Obama expended his energy on health-care reform at the expense of environmental legislation (which he abandoned) and job creation (for which he merely pumped stimulus money into projects that employed more machines than people). Given the opportunity to cut losses in a nebulous, hopeless war in Afghanistan, he opted to dig us in deeper, and under the auspices of a NATO orga-nization that has outlived its purpose he embroiled us in yet another confl ict.

The mid-term Republican resurgence forced Obama to revert from the politics of hope, in which anything seems pos-sible, to the politics of desperation, in which nothing does. Many of his subse-quent failures refl ect personal traits that are far more admirable than those of his predecessor, but in the face of ruthless partisanship they pose enormous liabili-ties for his constituents. Where George Bush exuded arrogance, and gloated over paper-thin political victories, Obama displays humility and makes a sincere effort at bipartisanship. Most reasonable Americans want just that, but a cynical opposition can, and did, use that benevo-lent open-handedness against him.

Obama meekly submitted to Repub-lican demands for renewing Bush’s tax cuts on the wealthiest citizens, asking only for a temporary extension of ben-efi ts for some (but not all) of the unem-ployed.

Then, although burned several times already, he failed to see the Republican debt-limit ploy coming. He might have avoided that economy-deadening fi ght had he shown more spine on the million-aires’ tax cuts, but he naively doubted that Republicans would willingly damage public confi dence even further just to embarrass him a little more. He was wrong, and now they have him cor-nered. Republicans won’t allow him to spend any more to encourage job growth, and—although their decade-old tax cuts still stimulate nothing but millionaire greed—they will blame the continuing recession on him and his party.

Keeping a wimp at the wheel invites a third-party effort, and assures a mea-sure of defeat no matter who wins. Can the Democratic organization, or the rest of us, really stand four more years of a leader who seems afraid to fi ght for the people? How does that differ from Republican victory?

Raising money for an AEDTo the Editor,As we see in the news, more and more young

children are collapsing on the playing fi elds. We as parents and community members feel it is necessary for our fi elds to be equipped with AEDs. We would like to raise money to have an AED machine placed at Promenade fi eld in Gorham. These machines do not come cheap but are a vital necessity for the safety of our children.

One of the ways that money is going to be raised is by fundraising. On Saturday Sep-tember 17, 2011 an array of recreation soccer

players will be standing outside Wal Mart from 9-12 collecting donations. Then, on September 18, Mr. Pizza is donating $5 for every large pizza delivered, ordered out or eaten in from the hours of 4 p.m.-9 p.m.

We hope to see lots of donations brought in by both events. Also keep an eye out for dona-tion cans, and concessions at various games. For further information or to make a donation please contact Nancy Gordon at 603-466-3806.

Support Bikes Not BombsTo the Editor,Last October the Gorham

Middle School Community Service Group and Path-ways for Thursday’s Child partnered with Bikes Not Bombs to collect 140 bikes to be refurbished. These bikes are distributed to inner city youth and also shipped to nations in Central America.

According to their website, “Bikes Not Bombs promotes bicycle technology as a con-crete alternative to war and environmental destruction. For 23 years, BNB has been a nexus of bike recycling and community empower-ment both in lower income neighborhoods of Boston and

see BIKES page 5

THE BERLIN DAILY SUN, Tuesday, September 13, 2011— Page 5

in the nations of the Global South. BNB’s programs involve young people and adults in mutually respectful leadership development and environ-mental stewardship, while recycling thousands of bicycles.”

Once again this year we will hold-ing a bike drive to support Bikes Not Bombs. The bike drive will be held at Pathways for Thursday’s Child (1 Washington St., Gorham) on Sunday, September 18 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Bikes may be dropped off prior to this date. As an added convenience we will be available to pick up bikes if needed. Any and all bikes will be accepted no

matter how old or what condition they are in. BNB encourages a donation of $5 for each bike accepted in order to assist with the cost of refurbishing.

More information about BNB is available on their website bikesnot-bombs.org. For questions about Bikes Not Bombs, the bike drive, or to sched-ule a pick up, please call Betty Gos-selin at 466-5564 or Matt Saladino at 466-3600. Thank you for your time and we hope to see you on the 18th!

SESSION from page one

The front entrance will be used as an emergency exit only. Paul Cusson said he hopes to have the mini-golf course ready to operate by the fall of 2012.

On the basement level, Cusson said he plans to add a variety of enter-tainment activities geared toward younger kids. He said the possibilities include pool and ping-pong tables, a ball pit, sandbox with remote control toys, a craft area, bumper cars, a shal-low pool with remote controlled boats and a large screen with seating for up to a dozen kids for movie options. Cusson said he will not install video games because he wants to promote physical activities. He said he hopes to have the second phase completed by the spring of 2013.

The fi nal phase will be the third fl oor. Cusson said one possibility for the third fl oor is a climbing wall because of the high ceilings there. Other possibilities include an interac-tive golf driving range and laser tag. Cusson said development of the third fl oor will depend on the traffi c gener-ated by the other two fl oors. He said it may be ready by the fall of 2013.

Cusson said he expects the center will be open after school and on week-ends. He said it would not be open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Fran Cusson said the couple pur-chased the building in 1999 with the hope of persuading JC Penney to relo-cate there and remain an anchor store in the downtown. When JC Penney decided to close its store in Berlin, Cusson said the couple moved in a new direction and agreed to sell the building to New Hampshire Chari-

table Gaming for a casino, contingent on the state legislature and governor approving expanded gambling. After two years of waiting for the state to move forward on gambling, the Cus-sons said they decided it was time to do something with the building.

Fran Cusson noted the Jericho Mountain State Park has already started to attract visitors to the area. With the ATV trail crossing the down-town, Cusson said the couple thought there was a need for more supporting entertainment activities in the down-town. They hope a family entertain-ment center will help draw and hold traffi c in the downtown.

Paul Cusson asked if the project has to go through site plan review since it is in the commercial district. City Planner Pamela Lafl amme agreed that it probably did not. She said she believes his plan for a 14 foot by 2 foot neon sign will require a variance from the zoning board but promised to check to make sure.

In other business:* Androscoggin Valley Regional

Refuse Disposal District Executive director Sharon Gauthier asked the board to amend its earlier site plan approval to refl ect the changes in the gas line project. Gorham Paper and Tissue is building the gas meter-ing and pressure regulation station instead of the district. The board approved an amended site plan for the project.

* Planning board member Ralph Collins submitted a letter resigning from the board because of work sched-uling problems. The board instructed Lafl amme to ask Collins if he would serve as an alternate member.

Dan Marois. In addition to an evening of show tunes, the Marois’ will share recollections of their time in Berlin including their education at area high schools, performances with Theatre North, and their courtship and their marriage, which took place at St. Kier-an’s. “It is such a joy for us to return to St. Kieran’s where we were married 33 years ago,” said Dan. “Denise sang for hundreds of weddings in Berlin. We expect that some of those couples are still married and hope that they come out to the performance.”

Currently living in Poland Spring, Maine, the couple has had an exten-sive career on the stage and in com-munity and professional productions throughout Southern Maine. The couple are the owners of Main Street Entertainment, Mystery for Hire and

Mainely Improv, offering entertain-ment throughout Maine and New England. They have performed over 450 murder mystery dinner theater productions, in addition to improvi-sational comedy and themed musical performances with a variety of guest artists and musicians.

“We are known to put a few sur-prises into our performances,” said Dan. “Berlin audiences should be ready to enjoy the music, have fun, and expect the unexpected!” The per-formance is sponsored by Round Table Farm Greenhouse and Top Furniture.

“Guests are invited to come early to view a new group art exhibition by North Country artists opening on Sep-tember 16 and on display until Decem-

Best of Broadway at St. Kieran ArtsBERLIN — St. Kieran Arts Center

Opens the Fall Series with a Best of Broadway performance by Berlin natives Dan and Denise Marois and a new Art Exhibition by North Country Artists on Friday, September 16 at 7 p.m. Doors open at 6 pm and refresh-ments will be served. Tickets are $12 adults & $6 for students

Dan and Denise Marois believe that you can “come home again.” “Our passion for performing began when we were both growing up in Berlin,” said Denise Marois, formerly Denise Boucher. “There were many people who sparked our interest in music and theater and this show is a trib-

ute to the infl uence they’ve had on our lives.”

For those who remember Dan and Denise from Theatre North, they might know that Dan grew up on Glen Avenue with his parents, Phil and Verna Marois and attended Berlin High School. Denise grew up on Graf-ton Street with her parents, Edward and Germaine Boucher. Germaine Boucher is the only living parent who will be 98 years old this December.

“Denise and I have always enjoyed Broadway shows and tunes and we are going to perform many of our favorites including ones that we fi rst performed with Theater North,” said

Dan and Denise Marois will open the St. Kieran season with a Best of Broadway show this Friday.

department after seeing the men were wanted while browsing Facebook. “It’s a great tool,” said Gentili, who pointed out that both Conley and Donovan were taken in within two days of being listed as wanted on Facebook.

Roberge noted that this isn’t the fi rst time the department has posted wanted persons on Facebook and given past success he expects the practice to continue. He said that in addition to the public support, in some cases, seeing themselves listed as wanted on the internet is enough to make some suspects turn themselves in.

With a combination of civil and criminal warrants, many for failure to appear and family court issues, the Coos County Sheriff ’s Department has cleared 112 warrants so far this year with 183 still active. Roberge said that County Sheriff Gerald Marcou’s staff actively pursues all the outstanding warrants by trying to get to offend-ers early, while the addresses listed on fi le are most likely still valid, but this does not always result in success. Those who make the Facebook “most wanted” postings tend to be the ones who hide, and evade arrest making the job of the sheriff ’s deputies more diffi cult, Roberge said.

cessful at slowing the ATV down and with a corner approaching, Adair made what Fish and Game called a good decision and rolled off the machine before it crashed into the trees.

Adair was not wearing a helmet and suffered seri-ous but non-life threatening injuries.

The ATV hit a tree head-on and a previously broken tree laying horizontal to the tree ended up at chest level above the handlebars. Family members said they were thankful Adair rolled off the ATV when she did because if she had stayed on her inju-ries would surely have been worst.

Berlin Fire Department and Emergency Medical Service responded to the scene. First aid care was administered at the scene and Adair was taken out on a backboard to Androscoggin Valley Hospital. Berlin Police also assisted in the rescue.

Lucas said the incident is a good reminder that everyone should wear a helmet and protective gear at all times and take caution when riding ATVs.

they become available.The Tillotson board had previously agreed to sell

the resort to Ocean Properties and employees were notifi ed that the hotel would close this Thursday. The Portsmouth-based corporation pulled out of the deal on Aug. 9 and the Tillotson Corporation said it

would seek another buyer.The Balsams employs approximately 300 full and

part time employees and is a major part of the econ-omy of Coos County.

The grand resort entails about 7,700 acres and includes the hotel and the Wilderness Ski area. The hotel draws national attention every four years for its fi rst-in-the-nation voting.

The turnbuckle fl own off the slope was put in place on top of the Old Man’s head back in 1958, via helicopter. When they assembled it, it stretched straight across the top of the head for about 30 feet. Its fall hundreds of feet from above caused it to bend and twist.

“What we hope visitors will get out of seeing it at the plaza will be to understand the force of what came off the mountain that day - 750 tons of rock - and what falling down 1,000 feet did to this heavy piece of steel,” Hamilton said.

The three smaller turnbuckles remain at the top of the cliff, now clutching at the emptiness left by the Old Man’s tumble.

Throughout the summer, stonemasons have laid hundreds of engraved granite pavers at the Profi ler Plaza, which are still available for purchase, and thousands of people paid a visit to the seven steel ‘profi lers,’ which recreate the beloved image of the Old Man.

HOROSCOPE By Holiday Mathis

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your plans are more ambitious than you fi rst realized, though they are still very much within the realm of possibility. You will need a lot of help. Think about how you can rally people around your vision. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You will have limits placed on what you can and can’t do. The funny part is that you actually welcome the rules and impositions because you want to be challenged. How else are you going to become great? GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll see 10 possible solutions to a problem, while the average person sees maybe one. So speak up. The world needs to hear your advice, even if they don’t take it. You’ll get people thinking differently. CANCER (June 22-July 22). When you look around your home, you see a lot of things you really need -- and a lot of things you don’t. Instead of increas-ing the number of things you own, scale down the number of things you want. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You won’t be worried about your image or what others are thinking about you. You’ll have an impact on someone’s life, and that makes you feel absolutely marvel-ous. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). It is said that misfortune brings a fool to his senses. But you don’t have to be a fool to receive the wakeup call. Minor acci-dents, for instance, a slight slip or spill, will remind you to slow down. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). There is such a thing as being too diplomatic. A line will be drawn today, and you’ll be moved to take a stand. You will have the opportunity to declare a loyalty. There is dignity in this. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Do

something out of the ordinary. You’ll be in a social mood, though you might have to initiate the fun to make it happen. Call a friend to go bargain hunting or to take a bike ride on a scenic route. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Because of your selfl essness, you’ll make a favorable impression on some-one interesting. This person will, at some later date, help you out. For now, though, you’ll just be glad for the favor-able attention. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your excitement over a project will be contagious. Make sure that you also have a specifi c plan. Work it through on your own before you share it. Your instructions will be followed to the letter. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You will look back to when a problem fi rst began. You might recognize that it started with circumstances very much like the ones you encounter today. You will take preventive measures. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You don’t want to be the “bad guy,” but someone might put you in that position anyway. It’s because you have such a soft way of delivering the hard facts. You’re gifted in the art of letting people down easy. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 13). You’ll have more time with someone who makes your heart beat a little faster. Take in new scenery in October. Unex-pected visitors bring excitement at the end of 2011. January ushers in a differ-ent routine and increased energy and vitality. Your success will be intertwined with the success of family. Cancer and Capricorn people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 14, 3, 20 and 16.

DEAR ABBY: Your response to “Not Ungrateful in San Di-ego” (July 13) missed the mark. Her boyfriend of eight months is fl ying in business class to France, but he’s only paying for a coach ticket for her? I was a divorce lawyer for 31 years (now retired), so I know a few things about relationships. While Claude had no obligation to pay her way to France, once he invited her, he displayed a troubling character fl aw. If he was going to pay her way, he should have paid for her to sit with him in business class. Her seat in coach is a warn-ing sign: She’ll always be in the back of the plane, the bus or his life. Of course buying business class seats for the two of them is expensive, but if he’s going to take her to his family’s chateau, he should treat her as an equal -- or not do it at all. -- PAUL IN SARATOGA, CALIF. DEAR PAUL: I appreciate your viewpoint, one which is shared by many other readers. The responses to that letter were an interesting mix. My newspaper readers comment: DEAR ABBY: “Not Ungrateful” is unbelievable! My long-legged husband cannot sit in coach unless he is in an exit row, and those seats aren’t always easy to get. Because I’m short, I don’t need the extra space and, if I am assigned an exit seat, I gladly give it up to a tall person. That woman will be in France (paid for!) with her boyfriend. I would go in the BAG-GAGE compartment for such an opportunity. -- HAPPY TO TRADE PLACES DEAR ABBY: A less-expensive option for long-legged fl i-ers is to buy an extra coach seat. Claude could purchase three seats together. That way he could sit sideways and put items in the central seat. Neither my wife nor I have long legs, but we fl y this way for comfort on long fl ights. -- STEPHEN IN TUCSON, ARIZ. DEAR ABBY: When Claude offered to treat her to the trip,

he put himself in the role of a “host.” A host does not treat himself to steak while offering hamburger to his guest. I am accompanying my husband on a business trip. His company will pay for him to fl y business class and I will purchase a coach ticket for myself. My husband insists on fl ying coach with me, saying that a gentleman would never fl y in a differ-ent class than his wife. -- WE’RE IN IT TOGETHER DEAR ABBY: My husband always sits in business class while I sit in coach when we travel long distances. He has a back problem and I don’t. Why spend a lot of money on something so fl eeting? We have plenty of time together once we arrive at our destination. I have never thought of myself as subservient -- just practical. -- ENJOYS LIFE IN COACH DEAR ABBY: By all means, “Not Ungrateful” should go to France as planned. Her seatmate in coach could be a delight-ful person -- maybe even someone with whom she’d rather spend the rest of her life. Or, he could be someone she’ll meet in France. Life’s little twists and turns can be strange and mysterious, but they lead us to our destiny. -- BETTIE IN AL-BUQUERQUE DEAR ABBY: Claude wouldn’t know chivalry if it bit him in the face. Men usually try to put their best foot forward in the beginning of a relationship. If this is his best foot, “Not Ungrateful” might want to pass on the trip and HIM alto-gether. Claude is a buffoon to expect his girlfriend to be grate-ful for something he himself refuses to abide by because “it’s uncomfortable.” Perhaps he should tie her hair into two pig-tails and force her to fl y in the cargo hold as a cocker spaniel instead. -- WOOF!

Huskie hold off Colebrook comeback 3-2GORHAM — The Gorham boys soccer team got

off to a strong start and then held off a furious Cole-brook rally to defeat the Mohawks 3-2 in Gorham Friday.

Huskie junior Sam Jensen(3rd goal of season) netted the Huskie’s fi rst counter of the game at 9:01, off of a redirect from a Jonathan Chabot free kick from the right side of the fi eld for a 1-0 lead.

Sophomore Chris Defosses made it 2-0 at 18:36 of the fi rst half, of a centering pass from the left sideby senior Cody Gauthier from about 8 yards out. The goal was the fourth in two games for the Huskie for-ward.

The Huskie’s Hunter Lambertson scored unas-sisted at 22:38. The speedy junior picked up a loose ball and lofted a nice volley over the head of the Colebrook keeper, Cody Hastings from about 15 yards out. Gorham had a three goal advantage at half time.

The visitors made some corrective measures at half time and gave the Huskies all the could handle. Colebrook’s Bryan Griffi n scored at 21:49 of the second half on a breakaway goal on a nice pass from Justin Siewerski. Griffi n’s shot beat Huskie net minder Tyler Sanschagrin to his lower right side of the goal.

The Mohawks cut their defi cit to one goal. Bryce Hicks scored with just 5:21 left to play. Greg Cooney centered a pass from the right side to allow Hicks to beat Sanschagrin to make it 3-2.

The Gorham defense was led by senior captain Pat Pike, keeping the Mohawks from any quality scoring chances over the fi nal fi ve minutes of the contest.

For the game, Gorham’s Sanschagrin had seven saves and the visiting Hastings was slightly busier making 13 blocks. On corner kicks, Gorham fi nished at 13, while Colebrook had six.

“The team played pretty well in the fi rst half, “ said coach Billy Goodrich. “Good passing and unself-

ish play resulted in some good chances and we were able to take a 3 - 0 lead into the half. Colebrook adjusted at half by playing a very quick counterat-tacking game and created some very dangerous 1 v 1 situations. Patrick Pike did a great job handling the pressure containing their attack. After Colebrook’s second goal I thought our guys played with some very good composure. They handled the pressure, controlled the play though good procession soccer and ended up with a very important win against a much improved Colebrook team.”

The win was the third on the fall for Gorham. The Huskies travel to Groveton on Tuesday to take on the Purple Eagles at 4 p.m.

Gorham boys beat Lisbon in overtime 4-3GORHAM — Gorham’s Chris Defosses scored

three goals, the last one in the second overtime, leading the Huskie boys varsity soccer team to a thrilling 4-3 victory over Lisbon in Gorham recently.

Defossess’s fi rst goal came from Sam Jensen at 20:29 of the fi rst half. A nice 1 -2 combination between the two team mates, allowed Defosses a wide open shot from eight yards out. The soph-omore’s shot found the lower left corner of the Lisbon goal.

Just four minutes later, Defosses netted his second of the game from Hunter Lambertson at 24:28. The play started with Cody Gauthier bringing the ball up the fi eld, passing the ball to Lambertson in the corner. The speedy forward centered to Defosses for a great one time blast from almost the same spot as the fi rst goal.

Leading 2-0 and entering the second half, Lisbon’s Mike Heath scored on a defl ection of a Gorham clearing attempt at 43:20. The ball was kick hard by a Huskie player and went off Heath and defl ected past Huskie goal keeper Tyler San-schagrin for the 2-1 score.

Gorham’s Kyle Boisselle gave his team the two goal cushion at 5:23 of the second half. He was set up from a beautiful centering pass from the left wing by senior Cody Gautheir. Boisselle’s shot was placed in the lower left side, off of a redirect from 10 yards out.

The Panther’s offense then picked up its pace. Lisbon’s Chad Knighton scored on a breakaway from a Heath feed through the middle at 49:40. The Panthers tied the game at 78:52. Andrew Knight pick up a loose ball after a scramble in front of the Gorham net and found the upper left corner for a 3-3 dead lock.

In the fi rst overtime, the Huskie’s best chance came from Defosses. Up close, the Lisbon keeper, Garrert McGrath, made a nice save on short side off the Defosses shot.

For the visitors, Knighton hit the crossbar on a direct free kick from 20 yards out. Later, the Huskie’s Sanschagrin made a spectacular save tipping the ball over the bar on a Mike Heath drive from 16 yards out.

The game winner came at 4:06 of the second overtime. Defosses picked up a loose ball ten yards out and just put enough on it to sneak it by McGrath on the lower left side for his third goal of the season and of the game.

Saves for the game for Huskie net minder, Tyler Sanschagrin, was 13 and his counterpart, Garrett McGrath, had 11 blocks. Corners kicks were Gorham six and Lisbon eight.

“Great early season win against a very good Lisbon team, said head coach Billy Goodrich. “The guys did a great job regaining their compo-sure after Lisbon tied the game late, and played very well in the overtime periods. Defensively, we were very solid and Tyler was very strong in the goal, coming up with a number of quality saves to keep us in the game. Offensively, we created some very good chances with good procession soccer and three goals by Chris was certainly a great performance from a sophomore. Hopefully, they exorcised a few demons from last year’s playoff defeat and can build on the win.”

The Huskies will play host to Colebrook on Friday.
