The discussion of whether or not to sell a part of Congress Square to the owners of the former Eastland Park Hotel reached an impasse Wednesday.

The Congress Square Redesign Study Group wound up with a 6-6 tie vote on whether to rec-ommend that the City Council’s Housing and Community Develop-ment Committee should move forward with sell-ing a portion of the park to RockBridge Capital so it can be annexed by the hotel and turned into an events center. The HCDC will be left to decide the fate of the park when it meets to discuss the events center proposal next Wednesday.

RockBridge Capital — the firm that bought the Eastland Park and is con-verting it into the Westin Portland Harbor View —met with the Congress Square Redesign Study Group to presented the plans for a proposed 9,400 square foot building and leaves a 4,836 square foot public plaza.

The plan reviewed by the study group had changed from what the HCDC saw at the end of April. Devel-opers increased the size of the plaza by 536 square feet and modified the position of the building to increase visibility.

The study group was split with half thinking that the proposal didn’t leave an adequate public amenity and the city ought to focus on renovating the space, while the other half felt that the proposal left adequate use-able public space and offered Portland greater economic opportunity.

Councilor Kevin Donoghue said he wanted to see a proposal that shows having a smaller public space and an events center is greater than having the whole space. He said he’s not convinced that the arguments made about the facility’s engagement with the street and accessory amenities are convincing.

“... It’s not clear what the direct public benefit is,” Donoghue said. “Tonight, I’m voting no.”

Frank Turek, the Parkside Neigh-

borhood Association’s representative to the study group, said while there’s a vocal minority speaking in favor of the proposal, most Portlanders do not want to see Congress Square Park go away. He said more than 1,200 people have signed a petition that wants to see the park remain intact and be refurbished by the city.

Others supported the development.“I see this as gaining more than we

lose. And we do lose something,” said Peter Bass, Creative Portland’s repre-sentative on the committee.

Bass said the building and rede-signed plaza would be the impetus for improving the whole square. He said the city might be getting a smaller plaza but a better public realm in that section of the city.

Jack Lufkin, the Portland Develop-ment Corporation’s representative, said he thinks the Rockbridge pro-posal will enhance what’s happening in Congress Square and in the Arts District.

The redesign of that space, coupled with the creation of a much-needed events center, would strengthen Con-gress Street, Lufkin said, and give the city a better public space.

Next Wednesday’s meeting is at 5:30 p.m. at City Hall, in Council Chambers.

Nestled in a quiet winding road behind the hustle and bustle of Maine Medi-cal Center’s Scarborough campus is the Research Institute of Maine Medical Center. It’s easy to miss. It’s tucked away. But for Maine, and its people, the medi-cal profession, the community and its economy, it’s a real gem. It’s where I met Dr. Donald St. Germain, Vice President for Research at Maine Medical Center, and director of the Research Institute.

“What goes on here?” I asked, impressed with the modern facility, built in 2000, and added onto in 2008. This biomedi-cal research facility employs 200 people and is growing. Biomedical research is an area of science that looks for ways to treat and prevent diseases that cause ill-ness and death to people and animals. Incorporating both life and physical sciences, biomedical research-ers study biological processes and diseases to better treat patients and ultimately cure diseases.

Biomedical research is conducted in all 50 states, with many of the major centers being affiliated with major hospitals and medical schools. Each one explains St. Germain, has “a bit of a different flavor, depending on the different types of research that they do; [the] different scientists they hire; which depends on the types of funding. One might wonder how Maine is able to compete for funding against the major metropolitan cities with large hospitals and medical schools.

“To be in research, you must be an entrepreneur,”

says St. Germain, who explains that research, on its own, isn’t sustainable. “It’s about keep-ing your nose to opportunities, sourcing fund-ing, while also allowing your curiosities and interests drive your research.” The money is sourced a variety of ways: the federal gov-ernment, foundations, medical centers, phi-lanthropist, past patients and their families, contribute to research at various levels; the bulk, coming from the federal government.

“Maine Medical Center is very dedicated to doing research, academics, and teach-ing,” says St. Germain, who explained the four-step approach of biomedical research at Maine Medical Center. The Research Insti-tute facility in Scarborough is where the first step takes place: laboratory based study of biological processes and systems — there

are multiple laboratories on site, with scientists and doctors from various disciplines. In the second step, the research findings are applied to solve medical problems by developing and testing clinical appli-cations around their discoveries. The third step involves clinical applications that test the effective-ness and patient safety. And in the fourth step, out-comes are monitored to check the effectiveness in the real world. In short – it goes from laboratory, to hospital/clinic, to community — through this entire cycle, the Research Institute is involved in all four steps. This process helps bridge the gap and move things through the research pipeline.

how can the City Council only express concern about tar sands?

Editor,After over an hour of public comment on Monday

night, the Portland City Council altered a resolu-tion from “opposing” Tar Sands oils from Canada to merely expressing “concern” about blasting the heated mixture under Sebago Lake through the Portland-Montreal pipeline.

I am writing because I find it highly disturbing that City Council members Ed Suslovic, Nick Mava-dones and Cheryl Lehman can claim ignorance to the issue of transporting Tar Sands under Port-land’s water supply. Time and again, national news has reported the devastating and damaging effects of Tar Sands spills upon property, burning toxic chemicals into the air, and spilling and mixing into drinking water.

During the Monday night meeting I inadvertently sat next to a Canadian representative for the oil industry and several representatives from the Portland Pipeline. There were dozens of people from all walks of life who expressed support for the resolution and only a few men who spoke against the resolution. In fact, the only person not tied to the transport of oil in Portland who sup-ported Tar Sands admitted that he was a child of the oil industry.

Bitumen is a chemical contained in the “propri-etary blend” of Tar Sands, which will be burned and released into the air through smoke stacks in South Portland. Bitumen and possibly other chemicals such as benzene contained in the blend are known carcinogens. It is against the common good of people in Maine to support foreign oil corporations who intend to poison our basic resources in order to transport their toxic product for export.

The admitted ignorance of the City Council can only be countered with a strong push by con-stituents to inform their representatives. Suslovic, Mavadones, and Lehman should ask their children and grandchildren if they would like to be breath-ing in bitumen for years to come. I do not believe that merely “concern” about pervasive chemicals in our land, air, and drinking water is enough. Should we be lead to believe that representatives on City Council are only “concerned” about the higher rates of cancer linked to burning and spilling Tar Sands, but not opposed to it? I think not.

‘Research really helps attract outstanding physicians,’ says institute’s St. Germain

Dr. Donald St. Germain of the Research Institute of Maine Medical Center (ABOVE AND BELOW) will be speaking at Scarborough Community Chamber’s annual lun-cheon being held at the Black Point Inn, in Scarborough on Thursday, June 6 from noon to 2 p.m. For more information contact the Portland Regional Chamber at 772-2811. (COURTESY PHOTOS)

Indeed, people invest in different research facilities for different reasons. For St. Germain, it was a quality of life move that landed him here in 2009, from Dartmouth Medical Center in Lebanon N.H. He chose Portland for the cosmo-politan feel. He became engaged in the challenges of Maine — a large rural state, with an aging population; find-ing good paying jobs, and retaining its young population are among its greatest challenges. Its beauty and quality of life are its assets. The goal: to provide top quality care, so that Mainer’s don’t need to leave the state to receive care.

St. Germain has had success. While it’s true that Maine doesn’t have an independent allopathic medical school; the University of New England has an osteopathic medical school and also does some biomedical research. Many of their students are doing rotations and are involved in blocks of learning in the medical center. Maine Medical Center has a formal allopathic medical program with Tufts University; they’ve admit-ted 35 Tuft students, and have taken charge of their education. The insti-tute uses the Tufts teaching programs the first two years; and the third and fourth year, they’re teaching their own program. Their focus is to highlight the rural physician experience. Students are spending time in all parts of rural Maine working with family physicians and surgeons. The ultimate goal being to take Maine’s best students, educate them, and have them pursue profes-sional careers right here in Maine.

It’s working. Other professionals from away have gotten turned onto Maine. St. Germain sites a recent example: Dr. Tracey Weigel, one of the most fore-most esophagus surgeons in the coun-try recently moved to Maine. Attracted by the lifestyle, a very important ele-ment was that she needed to be able to continue her research. Because of the Research Institute in Scarborough, moving to Maine was an easy decision for her.

“Research really helps attract out-standing physicians who are able to bring unique programs and treatments and new offerings to our patients here in Maine,” said St. Germain

St. Germain hopes that education, and engagement in the community not only builds visibility to the Research Institute, but spawns curiosity, funding, and is appreciated. “It seems obvious, [that] medical research develops new treatments, develops new diagnostic tools, develops new ways to perform care, [with] new systems of care; it has very direct benefits that help patients of the state of Maine in very tangible areas.”

It should spawn curiosity; that not only has the doctor or nurse asking, but the patient asking too: Is this the best way? What’s the cause of what’s hap-pening here? Is there a more efficient way?

“Research provides answers to your questions,” says St. Germain, noting that the Research Institute is a small institute, that can’t do everything; they’re focusing on the health issues that concern Maine people: Cancer, Cardiovascular disease, and Meta-bolic disease. They’re also training and developing Maine’s youth to have meaningful and prosperous

careers here in Maine — good for Maine’s health and economy all around.

The Research Institute has regular open houses, does high school, graduate school educational pro-grams, and summer research programs. To learn more or to make a donation visit: www.mmc.org/waystogive or call 662-2669.

Dr. Donald St. Germain will be speaking at Scar-borough Community Chamber’s Annual luncheon being held at the Black Point Inn, in Scarborough on June 6 from noon to 2 p.m. For more information contact the Portland Regional Chamber: 772-2811.

A Scarborough Police crime analyst said a miss-ing-person poster she generated to help find Glen-burn teen Nichole Cable ended up on the Facebook page of Kyle Dube, 20, of Orono, the suspect now charged with Cable’s murder.

Scarborough Police crime analyst and Facebook page manager Jaime Higgins posted on Tuesday about the jarring discovery that Dube had used his Facebook page to post the missing-person flyer that Higgins had created. Higgins said she found out via a newspaper article accompanied by an image of Dube’s Facebook page.

“I was just reading this article and was completely taken aback by the photo of his facebook page. He actually had the nerve to share the missing poster of Nichole that I had made for THIS facebook page with his own com-ment of ‘help find Nichole Cable,’” Higgins wrote in Tuesday’s post.

Higgins, who started working for Scarborough as a dispatcher, later was promoted to a grant-funded position of crime analyst and com-munity outreach expert, a job which includes monitoring and updating the department’s Facebook page, she said.

“I had made that missing poster that is on our Facebook page. He was one of those who shared it as well,” Higgins said.

The search for Cable generated considerable inter-est on Facebook and in other media forums. Cable had been reported missing from 25 Spruce Lane, Glenburn, since sometime after 9 p.m. on Sunday, May 12. Last contact was a text to a friend at 9:18 p.m. on that day, Maine State Police reported.

Human remains were found about 9:30 p.m. Monday, May 20, by the Maine Warden Service at an undisclosed wooded location, police said. State Police and the Penobscot County Sheriff ’s Office reported that the body located Monday night was considered likely to be the remains of the 15-year-old Glenburn teen.

Dube on Tuesday was charged with intentional and knowing murder, Maine State Police told media outlets.

Dube, who made his first court appearance Wednesday at the Penobscot Judicial Center in Bangor (he did not enter a plea to the charge of intentional or knowing murder, according to the Bangor Daily News), had posted about Cable’s dis-appearance.

On his Facebook page, Dube wrote on May 13: “Please help these family (sic) get back together. Nicole wherever you are i hope you’re safe.” He linked to a post about the disappearance, which began: “Nichole Kristine Cable was last know (sic) to be with a male using a fictitious name of Bryan But-terfield. He was using a Facebook account with that

name and it has now been taken down. The authori-ties have no leads.”

That same day, Dube posted about a girl named Sarah, writing, “We have had are (sic) ups and downs but we have worked them out so stop talking to me if your trying to flirt and guys you better stop hitting on Sarah I’m f--kin crazy when I get pissed off and I’m about there.” (Dube’s Facebook page since has been taken down.)

It was during the search phase of the investi-gation that Higgins became involved. She said, upon request, she quickly created the poster to let people know about the girl’s disappearance. It was posted to the Scarborough Police page (https://www.facebook.com/ScarboroughPD) on Tuesday, May 21.

Later, when Higgins read the newspaper article about Dube, she recalled, “All of the sudden I see this picture, and I said, ‘You’re kidding me?’ ... It was just unexpected, that takes nerve to do that.”

The poster undeniably was her creation, Higgins said.

“That’s the exact one that I made because after-ward more official ones started coming out,” she noted. “That’s just what he happened to find and put on his wall.”

Higgins, who also compiles a crime bulletin which is circulated statewide, said she sees Facebook as a way to communicate with the public and to seek leads on cases. Many missing-persons cases, even those originating elsewhere, can have a bearing on Scarborough, she said.

South Portland psychologist pleads guilty to health care fraudDr. Carole Orem-Hough, Ph.D., 55, of South Port-

land, pled guilty in the U.S. District Court in Port-land, before Judge George Z. Singal, to committing health care fraud, according to U.S. Attorney Thomas E. Delahanty II

According to court records, from September 2008 to September 2011, Orem-Hough was a licensed psychologist doing business as Casco Bay Psycho-therapy in South Portland, Delahanty reported. During that time, she provided counseling services to patients, many of whom were insured by private health insurance plans.

Orem-Hough admitted that she defrauded Aetna,

Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield, Harvard Pil-grim and OptumHealth Behavioral Solutions, by submitting claims for counseling sessions that never occurred, Delahanty reported. In many cases, Orem-Hough billed insurance companies for two counsel-ing sessions per week when Orem-Hough only saw the patient once per week, he said. Orem-Hough told one patient that she double-billed Aetna because the company reimbursed her about half of what she received from other companies, Delahanty reported.

Orem-Hough faces up to 10 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000.

GMO labeling advocates plan to join march, organize State House lobbying

By DaviD CarkhuffTHE PORTLAND DAILY SUN

Advocates of a Maine bill to identify foods with genetically modified organisms as ingredients plan to join a nationwide anti-Monsanto rally on Satur-day and are organizing lobbying at the State House on Thursday, May 30.

The Maine Legislature’s Joint Standing Commit-tee on Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry voted 8-5 Tuesday in support of a bill that would require labeling of genetically modified organisms in food, noted Logan Perkins, Right to Know — GMO Cam-paign Coordinator for the Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association, or MOFGA.

Now the bill will go to the full legislature for votes in the House and Senate.

LD 718, An Act to Protect Maine Food Consum-ers’ Right to Know About Genetically Engineered Food and Seed Stock, was the focus of a rally in late April at the State House. The bill, sponsored by Rep. Lance Harvell, R-Farmington, requires a label read-ing “Produced with Genetic Engineering” on foods consisting of or containing a genetically modified organism.

The Joint Standing Committee on Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry received public testi-mony on the bill during April’s hearing

Perkins said MOFGA plans a citizen lobby day in Augusta Thursday, May 30 at 8 a.m. Participants can gather in the Cross Cafe in the Cross Office

Building, Augusta.“We’re going to try and turn out our grassroots

base to try to talk to our legislators,” she said.“Polls show that 91 percent of Mainers feel that

people have the right to know and support a labeling requirement,” Perkins said.

And while the bill enjoyed “broad bipartisan sup-port in terms of cosponsors, and it’s sponsored by a Republican legislator,” Perkins said the split vote on Tuesday fell largely along party lines.

Also, Perkins worried that a version of the legisla-tion put forward by Rep. Jeff Timberlake, R-Turner, and Rep. Russell Black, R-Wilton, would require labeling, but only if New Hampshire and four other contiguous states were to pass similar label-ing requirements. MOFGA opposed this additional requirement, and Perkins said this “more rigorous standard for labeling” could render the legisla-tion ineffective. Perkins said MOFGA supports the

Protesters gather in Augusta in April to support legislation for labeling of foods with genetically modified organisms as ingredients. On Saturday, May 25, tens of thousands of activists around the world will March Against Monsanto, an agricultural firm which promotes GMOs. Events are planned to occur simultaneously at 2 p.m. including one in Portland. (DAVID CARKHUFF FILE PHOTO)

“majority report” version of the bill.The Maine House and Senate are expected to

entertain the labeling bill within the next two weeks.One of the primary targets of GMO labeling leg-

islation is Monsanto Company, which, according to its website (http://monsanto.mediaroom.com), “is a leading global provider of technology-based solu-tions and agricultural products that improve farm productivity and food quality.”

In a section devoted to the GMO issue, Monsanto reported, “Hundreds of millions of meals containing food from GM crops have been consumed. There has

not been a single substantiated instance of illness or harm associated with GM crops.”

The company opposes labeling efforts, stating, “Within the United States, the government has established clear guidance with respect to labeling food products containing GM ingredients; we sup-port this approach. We also support food companies’ choices to voluntarily label food products noting certain attributes (e.g., organic) based on their customers’ preferences and provided the labeling is truthful and not misleading. We oppose current initiatives to mandate labeling of ingredients devel-oped from GM seeds in the absence of any demon-strated risks. Such mandatory labeling could imply

that food products containing these ingredients are somehow inferior to their conventional or organic counterparts.”

Not directly related to Maine’s labeling legislation, on Satur-day, May 25, activists in Maine and around the world will join a “March Against Monsanto.” Events are planned to occur simultaneously at 2 p.m. EST in 47 U.S. states, six continents, at least 41 countries, and over 338 participating cities, organizers said. In Portland, the rally and march will take place in Monu-ment Square.

Perkins said MOFGA will have a representative speaking in Portland. According to a press release, activists plan to gather in Deering Oaks at the Saturday Portland Farmer’s Market from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. to “make signs and banners while educating the public about GMO.”

While Eli Berry signs a petition, other supporters of labeling for Genetically Engineered Food and Seed Stock wait outside the State House in April prior to a press conference and a leg-islative hearing for a bill to require labeling of GMO foods. They include (from left) Will West, Michele Roy and Charlie Bernstein. The bill that would require labeling of foods containing genetically modified organisms was voted out of a legislative committee Tuesday and faces a full vote later this month.

Yesterday’s Answer

HOROSCOPE By Holiday Mathis

Fill in the grid so that every row, every column, and every 3x3 box contains the digits 1 thru 9.

Solution and tips at www.sudoku.com

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Working in isolation can produce results that are too narrow in scope. Open yourself up to more infl uences. It will take diverse views to shed enough light on a problem to see the solution. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’ve shown restraint. You’ve been disciplined and discerning. Over time, your consistent demeanor has earned trust. You now radiate refi nement and wisdom. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). An ancient Chinese proverb says: When a bird fl ies too high, his song is lost. People respond to you because you communicate on their level. They can understand you. This talent will be put to excellent use today. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Words matter, but they cannot always carry a pursuit forward. Action is necessary. Someone has to put in the physical work. You’ll either decide who that someone is, or you’ll do it yourself. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). When you really believe something, you’ll put your money and the best of your efforts into it. If someone you know seems reticent to invest in any real way, take it as a lack of belief, and look for a part-ner who is a better fi t. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). In order to triumph, you have to stay in the game. Those who drop out or take too many breaks or detours won’t be able to keep up with the players who consistently show up. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You like it when things are going smoothly, but you don’t shy away from diffi culties, either. People like you are made stronger by chal-lenge. Trials make you sharper. Tribulation gives you the chance to be heroic. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’re just about fi nished with a certain role or frame of mind. It is no longer going to work in your life. A master of transformation, you embrace this chance to reinvent yourself and adventure on. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). When you think about it, all self-improvement is a subtle form of self-rejection. Consider giving it up for the time being so you can focus on

discovering and enjoying who you already are. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). It’s hard to create fi re from scratch. But when you already have a fi re burning, spreading it to new locations is as easy as passing a torch. You have a fi re burning in your belly now and will easily ignite one in others. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The cow in the meadow is as powerful as it is gentle. You’ll feel similarly tranquil now, enjoying all you are doing even though you could be doing more if you were so inclined. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You may experience deep desires and a strong drive to succeed. Harness these energies judiciously, or they will consume your dreams. A slow burn is better than fi reworks. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (May 23). You’ll have moments of heaven on earth. Why keep them a secret? With all you know, you could inspire and motivate others. Giving back is a major theme for you this year. Next month you’ll get the chance to contribute something meaningful to your family. July and August show you building something with friends. Aries and Scorpio people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 17, 30, 22, 39 and 2.

In 1967, Egypt closed the Straits of Tiran to Israeli ships, an action which precipitated war between Israel and its Arab neighbors the follow-ing month.

In 1984, Surgeon General C. Everett Koop issued a report saying there was “very solid” evi-dence linking cigarette smoke to lung disease in non-smokers.

In 1993, a jury in Baton Rouge, La., acquitted Rodney Peairs of manslaughter in the shooting death of Yoshi Hattori, a Japanese exchange stu-dent he’d mistaken for an intruder. (Peairs was later found liable in a civil suit brought by Hattori’s parents.)

Ten years ago: By the narrowest of margins, Congress sent President George W. Bush the third tax cut of his presidency — a $330 billion package of rebates and lower rates for families and new breaks for businesses and investors. Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon agreed to submit the U.S.-backed “road map” for peace to the Israeli Cabinet. Annika Sorenstam ended her historic appearance on the PGA tour in the Colo-nial with a 15-foot par putt, missing the cut by four strokes.

Five years ago: Hillary Rodham Clinton quickly apologized after citing the 1968 assassination of Robert F. Kennedy as a reason to remain in the race for the Democratic presidential nomination despite increasingly long odds.

One year ago: Egypt held the Arab world’s fi rst competitive presidential vote (Islamist Moham-med Morsi was ultimately named the winner fol-lowing a runoff). A Pakistani doctor who’d helped the CIA hunt down Osama bin Laden was con-victed of conspiring against the state; U.S. offi -cials had urged Pakistan to release Dr. Shakil Afridi. Phillip Phillips, a bluesy Georgia guitar man, was crowned the new “American Idol” after defeating teenager Jessica Sanchez.

Prickly City by Scott Stantis

ANNIE’S MAILBOX Dear Annie: I have three wonderful young adult children. The oldest two girls both recently graduated from college and are living at home, working and saving money. The girls were not particularly interested in dating until re-cently. Our oldest met a guy at work and has fallen hard. She’s always been family oriented, but for the past three months, all she wants to do is be with this guy 24/7. She spends most nights at his place, and we don’t see her at all on the week-ends. This behavior does not sit well with me. I don’t think it’s a good idea to spend the night with your boyfriend so early in the relationship. I also don’t like that she disregards her fam-ily, especially her younger sister, with whom she had a close relationship. My position is, if she’s still living at home, she should come home to sleep. She can fool around with this guy the rest of the day. I understand I may have some old-fashioned values, but al-lowing my daughter to live with her boyfriend on a part-time basis shows no respect for my position and is hard for me to swallow. I normally have a great relationship with her, but I haven’t seen or spoken to her in more than two weeks. I’m concerned that if I ask her to have dinner with us more often and spend some time with family on the weekends, she will resent it and it will make matters worse. Am I out of line? -- Concerned Dad Dear Dad: Be careful, Dad. Your daughter is now a grown woman. The lack of prior dating could be one reason why she is so over the moon for the new boyfriend. You apparently don’t object to her having sex, the too-soon timing of which is not up to you and at this point is moot anyway. You simply miss the girl she used to be. It’s OK for you to say you don’t wish to subsidize her liv-

ing with the boyfriend, but we hope you will do so in a lov-ing way, letting her know you miss her at dinnertime. But we also recommend you invite the boyfriend to join you for meals and weekend activities. This will not only encourage your daughter’s participation, but it will allow you to get to know the man who may become your son-in-law. Dear Annie: My oldest sister is very selfi sh. She has three young children but never wants to spend any time with them. Sis is in her early 40s and acts as if she’s 16. She is only con-cerned with herself and what others can do for her. She and her husband are always going out and foisting their children on everyone else. When we won’t watch her kids, she gets angry and then tells the kids we don’t love them. Unfortunately, Sis lives in the same town as my parents. I’d like to visit my folks, but I prefer to avoid my sister. Is that wrong? -- Helpless Sibling Dear Sibling: We know it will be diffi cult, but we urge you to remain civil to your sister for the sake of her children. They need you. Since you don’t live nearby, her selfi shness should be manageable in small doses on rare occasion. Please try. Dear Annie: Thank you for printing the letter from “A Fa-ther Who Knows.” My 9-year-old son is legally blind and has epilepsy. He is often quiet and withdrawn, and leaving the house with him can be quite a task. He is impulsive and often says and does inappropriate things in public. We continually work with him. I thought I was the only parent who could possibly under-stand what was going on with my son. I cried reading this let-ter, because it made me realize that others know my struggles. -- A Coping Mom

usa Telephone customers see service restored until June 14

USA Telephone customers whose telephone ser-vice was cut off Tuesday saw it temporarily restored Wednesday, at least until June 14.

FairPoint Communications made the decision Wednesday to restore service, even though custom-ers ultimately will see their service end because USA Telephone, the company using FairPoint’s lines, has failed to pay for use of those lines, according to Jeff Nevins, FairPoint Communications spokesperson.

“They haven’t paid for a considerable amount of time, this is an ongoing dispute that we’ve had, trying to get them to fulfill their financial obligation. It goes back a number of years, actually,” he said.

USA Telephone, Nevins said, is a “competitive local exchange carrier” with about 2,300 customers in Maine, about 160 in New Hampshire and another 60 in Vermont.

USA Telephone used Fairpoint’s network to pro-vide service, but failure to pay prompted FairPoint to notify USA Telephone that the use of the lines would be terminated, he said. An original termina-tion date of May 9 was extended to May 21, Nevins said. The problem for customers was that USA Tele-phone, according to Nevins, gave a different date for end of service.

“It turns out that they had notified their custom-ers that business would end on June 14,” Nevins said. “The customers interpreted that to mean they would have service through the 14th of June.”

FairPoint revisited the issue on Wednesday and decided to put the customers back in service, which took until about 4 p.m. Wednesday. Now, customers have until June 14 to find a new provider.

Gorham Police fundraisers today, May 31 support special Olympics

Today at 12:30 p.m., 11 members of the Gorham Police Department, including Chief Ron Shepard,

will be shaving their heads in hopes of raising money for Special Olympics Maine, the depart-ment reported. This event will take place in front of the Gorham Police Department on Main Street in Gorham. Spectators are welcome and encouraged as the officers are hoping that people will make dona-tions to Special Olympics during the event.

The Gorham Police department has been involved with Special Olympics Maine since it began. In 1970 they had officers volunteer at the first Spe-cial Olympics Winter Games which were held in Gorham. Since that time officers have run in the Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics and they have been involved in fundraising events and also in awarding medals and ribbons at Special Olympics competitions.

In addition to the Buzz The Fuzz event, officers will also be waiting tables on Friday evening, May 31 at Applebees in Windham from 4:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. at a Tip-a-cop event that benefits Special Olympics.

Special Olympics is a year round athletic training and competition program for adults and children with Intellectual Disabilities. In Maine there are over 3,700 people who participate in Special Olympics.

Pingree: New, federally funded tug-barge design to benefit Portland

A maritime shipping company has been selected to design a new vessel to provide cargo service between Portland and New York, with a possible stop at another port in Southern New England, U.S. Rep. Chellie Pingree reported Wednesday. The design contract, for an articulated tug-barge, was funded by a $150,000 federal grant that Pingree had pushed for, her office reported.

“The design of this vessel is the key to bringing increased domestic cargo service to Maine,” Pingree said in a press release. “This type of vessel will suit the needs of shippers in Maine and New York. It could cost between a third and half what a more traditional container ship would cost and use fewer crew, thus reducing capital and operational costs that could then be passed on to shippers.”

The agreement, between the Maine Port Author-ity and McAllister Towing and Transportation, calls for the initial design work to be completed by fall.

Last year Pingree hosted a tour of the Inter-national Marine Terminal in Portland for U.S. Maritime Administrator David Matsuda. She told Matsuda that a new tug-barge design was the best option for starting a service that would movecargo between the Port of New York/New Jersey and Port-land and urged him toapprove federal funding for the design.

Matsuda is leaving his post at the end of this month and Pingree said she hopes his replacement takes advantage of investments in projects like this one.

“This is an excellent example of the use of ama-rine highway to lower costs and create jobs,” Pingree said. “I hope the next Administrator will be commit-ted to these kind of investments and use the private-public partnership that has developed in Maine as an example of what can be accomplished.”

Recently an Icelandic company, Eimskip, started a container service operating between Portland and Europe.

Pingree said the new tug-barge design could help restore regular container service between Port-land and the Port of New York/New Jersey. Under the Jones Act, any vessel servicing a route between U.S. ports has to be American built and crewed by American seamen. The Maine Port Authority has partnered with McAllister to design a new vessel to service this route.

John Henshaw, Executive Director of the Maine Port Authority, said it’s important to spend time on the front end to design a vessel that fits the needs of shippers.

“We always work with our shippers first,” Henshaw said. “With port infrastructure design, equipment investment, terminal layout — and in this case vessel design — we always begin with the customer.”

Casco Bay High project about Malaga Island11:45 a.m. to 2 p.m. “Sophomores at Casco Bay High School in Portland will present their research and original historical fiction about Malaga Island in Phippsburg, for-merly the site of a mixed race fishing community. A century ago, state officials evicted residents from the island and sent several to the Maine School for the Feeble-Minded.” Talbot Lecture Hall, Luther Bonney, University of SouthernMaine’s Portland campus. “This project is the culmina-tion of students’ year-long investigation of the question, ‘How do we identify and treat the other?’ Experts who will respond to the work include the archeologist who led a dig on Malaga Island and a representative from the Maine State Museum, which currently has an exhibit about the island.”

Author Gail Rowe in Cumberland2 p.m. “Gail Rowe will be at the Prince Memorial Library in Cumberland for the Meet the Author series at 2 p.m. to talk about her book, ‘The Roots of a Family — Life in Rural Maine.’ Take a step back in time with the author as she describes the lives of her parents during the great Depres-sion and World War II. Her maternal grandparents raised sixteen children in a four-room house without the benefit of electricity or indoor plumbing, while her paternal grandpar-ents had a small dairy and market garden. Rich with histori-cal details, this ‘remarkable tale captures a lost way of life in rural Maine … strikingly candid.’”

Screening of short films by Walter Ungerer7 p.m. “On Thursday, May 23, St. Lawrence Arts will pres-ent a program of his recent short films including his latest work ‘Mauvais Garçon/Bad Boy’ involving a conversation with Portland artist Lisa Dombek, fine art photographer Dianna Rust, and Walter Ungerer himself. There will be a Q & A at the conclusion of the program. Walter Ungerer is a longtime filmmaker and artist of international reputa-tion, beginning with the underground film scene in NYC in the early 1960s, continuing through to the 21st century in Maine. Ungerer’s works have been shown at festivals and competitions throughout the world including Florence, Tours, Athens, Hong Kong, Houston, Tate, UK and MoMA, N.Y. Two of Ungerer’s films with recent success on the inter-national festival circuit are ‘Parva Sed Apta Mihi’ (Factory Art, Berlin, Germany Alchemy Festival, Scotland; Experi-mental Film Festival, Oregon) and ‘Green Eye’ (Atlanta Film Festival). They will be on the program.”

‘Images of Johnny Appleseed’7 p.m. Maine Historical Society. “Images of Johnny App-leseed: Saint or Buffoon? Speaker: Russell Powell. John Chapman, better known as Johnny Appleseed, is among America’s most widely misunderstood folk heroes. Chap-man (1774-1845) is widely credited with spreading the apple gene in America. But while schoolchildren every-where learn some variation of Appleseed’s story, it is usually inflated by myth. It seems as if we cannot decide whether to revere Chapman or ridicule him, and many depictions do both. Author Russell Steven Powell will separate fact from fiction in describing Chapman’s peripatetic life and legacy, and show how many of the depictions of Chapman through the years reflect the values of the people portraying him rather than the man. Like Chapman, Powell is a Massachu-setts native who has devoted much of his career to spread-ing the word about apples, most of that time as executive director of the New England Apple Association. Powell dis-cusses Chapman and his legacy at length in his new book about apple growing in the United States, ‘America’s Apple’ (2012, Brook Hollow Press).” https://www.mainehistory.org

‘Do Your Divorce Right’ authors at PPLnoon. “Justice Andrew Horton and Justice David Kennedy to speak about their book “Do Your Divorce Right” at the Portland Public Library’s Local Author Series, Friday, May 24 at noon in Meeting Room No. 5. “This book is written for people who aren’t lawyers and who are thinking about going to family court, who are already involved with a family law case, or who have a family member or friend involved in a pending or active family law case. As judges, the authors have presided over more than 10,000 trials or other court-room events in family law cases. Divorce is one of the most significant life changing experiences a person will ever live through. However, it is a process, not an event. The pro-cess goes on long after the legal aspects of the divorce are complete. The process operates on at least four levels — legal, emotional, financial, spiritual. This book attempts to address all of these levels in an interrelated manner.”
