By David TreadwellFALMOUTH — David Smith’s

dedication to service began, it could be said, at birth, when he was born with no right hand.

“Having a disability can make you more sensitive to what’s go-ing on around you,” Smith said.

Other major factors came into play, too. Smith attended a Jesuit school in New York City, for ex-ample, and noted that, “the Jesuits pounded into you the concept of

giving back.”After graduating from the

University of Pennsylvania with a journalism degree, David went on to earn his law degree at Fordham University.

“A law school education is good for all kinds of things,” he said, “because it challenges you and teaches you how to think.”

During his career, Smith suc-cessfully applied his legal and administrative skills to law firms

By Amber CroninFALMOUTH — Officials

say the town has done a lot over the past five years to attract businesses, but some business owners say restrictions like a proposed size limit are prevent-ing economic growth.

Among other things, the critics have recently noted Falmouth’s failure to be identi-fied by the state as a Certified Business Friendly Community.

Despite that setback, Town Manager Nathan Poore said the town has been working hard over the past several years to improve its business climate.

In the application to become a Certified Business Friendly Community, Poore identified several projects and programs that have been enacted to at-tract businesses to town. These programs include tax increment financing districts, an online da-tabase of available commercial properties and overlay zoning.

The state denied the town’s application in May. It said the town needs to update its Com-prehensive Plan, better iden-tify areas where permits may be needed (building permits, sign permits, business licenses, etc.)

and better identify ways the town engages with businesses.

Town Council Chairwoman Faith Varney said she feels that in general the town is business friendly, and that in order to encourage business, the council should leave things in the Route 1 commercial district alone.

“The council wants businesses in the Route 1 and Route 100 areas and they are very happy to have them come, but they are not quite sure how they want to structure things,” she said. “Some of us think that we should leave it the way it is because there is already some structure in place.”

Jonathan Berry, president of the independent and non-gov-ernmental Falmouth Economic Development Commission, said the major problem the town has is a history of developing ordi-nances in response to problems that don’t exist.

“There is so much internal conflict within our code that it stymies economic growth,” he said. “When you look at our code, you don’t really need to do anything beyond look at the

drama production season is in full swing at area high schools, and while audiences may ap-preciate the costumes, set design and acting, they may not realize what happens behind the scenes.

Audrey Northway, theater

director at Greely High School, said the students in her program grow tremendously, thanks to their participation in high school theater.

She said during the course of a four-year period she watched one student change from a quiet, timid freshman who only spoke

in the last three minutes of the play, into a leading man, playing Tevya in “Fiddler on the Roof.”

While some students grow and improve enough to go on and act in college and profes-sionally, she said it is just as

arty decided it was time to throw his hat into the ring.

While Moriarty said he is not re-quired to resign from the Town Council, it was easy for him to decide he couldn’t serve in the House and on the council at the same time.

He said he faces a steep learning curve at the House. “From what I understand, in talking to those who are serving and have served, you learn by doing, and that’s where I think most of the education will come from,” he said.

Town Manager Bill Shane said Tues-day that he expects a quick and fluid process in finding Moriarty’s replace-ment, in order to have a complete Town Council by the start of fiscal 2014 budget planning sessions.

“It’s a little bittersweet,” Shane said of Moriarty’s impending departure from the council. “... I think Steve will do an out-standing job for the entire state and will represent the town so well in Augusta. ... That’s a very positive thing for ... many

Longtime Cumberland town councilor prepares for move to LegislatureBy Alex Lear

CUMBERLAND — It’s funny how life events can line up.

Steve Moriarty’s oldest daughter, Kath-leen, was a baby when he was appointed to his first town board in 1985. And now, wrapping up more than 20 years of ser-vice on the Town Council before starting a new political career in the state Legis-lature, Moriarty gave Kathleen away in marriage last weekend.

Moriarty, a Democrat, earned his tran-sition to Augusta by defeating fellow Cumberland resident Joe Kumiszcza, a Republican, Nov. 6 in House District 108.

Taking the legislative job means Moriarty will resign from the Town Council.

Because less than six months will re-main in his term when he steps down in late December or early January 2013, the council is expected to appoint a replace-ment to serve until the June 2013 elec-tion, instead of holding a special election.

Moriarty, 62, is an attorney with Nor-man, Hanson & DeTroy, a Portland firm. He served on the Cumberland Town Council from 1987 to 1993, and then

again from 1997 to the present day. He is currently council chairman.

He has also served on Cumberland’s Charter Commission; the Twin Brook Advisory, Rines Forest, Route 88, Route 100, Veterans Memorial, Cumberland/North Yarmouth Joint Standing and Main Street committees; the Patten Free Library advisory board, and the Val Halla Board of Trustees.

Moriarty is also no stranger to State-house politics: he served on the Maine Municipal Association Legislative Policy Committee.

The Town Council appointed him to the Conservation Committee in 1985, a role he embraced due to his interest in preserving Cumberland’s rural character and open space.

“I think it whetted my appetite for public service and greater commitment to the town,” he said. “... It’s been an extraordinarily rewarding experience. Not always easy, and sometimes frustrating, but ultimately positive.”

Moriarty said he had been thinking about running for the House, and expect-ed to wait until Rep. Meredith Strang-Burgess, R-Cumberland, was termed out in 2014. But when she stepped down this year, at the end of her third term, Mori-

Freeport service hopes to be a college matchmakerBy Will Graff

FREEPORT — As application dates near and prospective college students cram for their placements tests and sweat over school choices, they could find their perfect college match online.

Or not.Much like the popular dating sites,

Match.com and eHarmony, a Freeport-based online college counseling service that started in 2011 hopes to connect students with their soul-mate college.

“It’s modeled a little bit like eHarmony and a little bit like Pandora,” said Betsy Peters, founder and president of Possibili-tyU. “It bumps up against a government database and the database of colleges and will come back with what are the closest schools to the fit and feel for the student, as well as, academic interests.”

The search gives students a list of colleges that most closely match their preferred schools based on 78 social, academic and financial characteristics. It then provides the likelihood the stu-dent will get into that school based on academic performance and test scores, while also including the chance of getting financial aid from that school.

“What is unique and where we’re coming from is looking at it in a student-centric view, with a usable interface,” Peters said. “It’s not to take away from the guidance counselor, it’s so that one-on-one can be that much more helpful.”

The program also gives students and families access to videos that discuss strategies and techniques for things like essay writing and maximizing potential financial aid.

PossibilityU isn’t free, with costs rang-ing from $20 for a two-day pass on the website to $49 for a monthly fee and $250 for 12 months of the service.

But not everyone thinks these types of services are necessary for students to get into the college they want.

Gary Canter, a guidance counselor who owns College Placement Services in Portland, said although these services can be helpful, he doesn’t recommend paying for them or relying on them to find the right college.

“There’s no reason for any person to be paying for this because it should be free, there’s so many (guidance services) that

don’t require payment,” he said. “There’s so much misinformation and misunder-standing out there that the market is filled with frauds and charlatans. What a good independent consultant should do, and I consider myself one, is exactly what a good guidance counselor should do, which is to teach students and families out there to use the services that are free.”

Canter charges $250 for four, 90-min-ute sessions. If the families want to continue using his services, they’ll pay $1,200 for a year. As the sole worker in his business, he also limits the number of clients he takes to 50 to maintain per-sonal relationships, he said.

Canter said the difference between online services and his service is that he tells people “nobody has the answer.”

“The videos say, ‘we have the answer if you give me $250,’” he said. “It’s the kid who’s got to do it. The college admission process is neither fair nor predictable.”

Yamrouth High School guidance coun-selor Beth Doane said the school uses a combination of online and one-on-one counseling, but neither are totally suf-ficient.

“The best match is getting on the cam-pus themselves,” she said. “We don’t

focus so much on what do you want to major in; it’s the fit. ‘Do I see myself on this campus, do I see similar students, based on their offerings, their size and the subjects I’m interested in?’”

Doane said being on the right campus is important because if a student decides to change majors, they don’t have to transfer schools, cutting down on the potential for extended graduation time and costs.

The supplementary services for college counseling are not new, she said.

“Before the computer, we were digging out the big books,” she said. “What this

has done is kind of refine the process, but it’s how you use the information that’s important. The human factor comes in with the difficulty of getting into the schools. We’re making sure they are developing lists that have schools where they can be successful. ... There definitely has to be a combination and students meeting with counselors who are in the trenches with the admissions departments is important.”

Peters agrees, and said the purpose of PossibilityU is more about discovery, than matching.

“Nothing about our program is to say that digital means is going to solve this

Medical marijuana grows economy, advocates sayBy Tom GroeningBangor Daily News

PORTLAND — For Paul McCarrier, organizer of the Medical Marijuana Care-givers of Maine trade show on Saturday, it’s all about the economy.

Gesturing to the large conference room floor where several dozen exhibitors were selling their wares and services, McCarrier said the legalized use of marijuana to treat various ailments created an entrepreneurial bloom.

Almost all were small-business operators. Many were artisans, crafting glass pipes and T-shirts. Others were experts in the cul-tivation of the plant, providing advice and equipment such as grow lights, compost and greenhouses.

And, of course, there were the marijuana growers, who were well represented among the 150 or so who wandered through the trade show. Three years after a citizens initiative was passed and the state tweaked a law to create dispensaries and licenses for

growers, there are 768 people cultivating the plant, six plants per patient for no more than five patients.

McCarrier compared the cottage in-dustries that have grown around legalized medical marijuana in Maine to the many businesses that supply car manufacturers with specialized parts.

“It’s the economy of it,” he said. McCar-rier noted that he had to leave his home in Belfast to find work in Portland, but thanks to being able to provide medical marijuana for patients, he was able to return and buy land and a home.

“Mainers are supplying Mainers with a needed product,” McCarrier said.

Several of those who attended and exhib-ited at the trade show speculated about what will happen in Maine after Colorado and Washington approved referendums legal-izing the recreational use of marijuana on Nov. 6. Most believe it is merely a matter of time before a petition is circulated to put a similar referendum before Maine voters.

McCarrier didn’t want to muddy the waters with discussion of recreational use. For him, the focus of the trade show was on those whose lives are being changed for the better through access to marijuana.

Several patients at the show told the same story: After years of debilitating illness and reliance on expensive prescription medi-cations which often had unpleasant side effects, using marijuana has lessened pain, restored appetite, mobility and vitality.

Three floors above the Holiday Inn By-The-Bay conference room, a patient lounge was set up in a small room. As the steady stream of people approached the door to get in, Scott Darville of Gardiner, a large man with a beard wearing a tie-dyed T-shirt asked each, “May I see your ID and prescription, please?”

The room is where patients can legally use marijuana, set up through consultation with local law enforcement agencies.

At two round tables, six or seven people sat, passing around a plastic tube connected with a vaporizer, a device that heats the marijuana so that it is atomized. There was only a slight smell of the plant in the air, nothing like the pungent smell of the herb when it is being smoked.

Betsy Foster, 51, was one of those sitting at the table inhaling the vapor from the tube. She said she was evicted from a motel room that was her home in Gorham after complaints about her smoking cigarettes. She does not smoke cigarettes, she said, but the smell may have been the vaporizer she uses.

Foster said she suffers from skin cancer,

hepatitis C and migraines. She also is on methadone, but has been clean of heroin for a long time.

“I’ve been able to get off all the medica-tions taking this,” she said, gesturing to the vaporizer. “It does calm me and helps me think clearer.”

Several attendees credited Alysia Mel-nick of ACLU Maine with helping write and advocate the law that clarified many of the issues that left Maine without a real medical marijuana network, despite vot-ers approving the concept in 1999. Chief among the fixes to the law that followed the 2009 citizens initiative was blocking the creation of a mandatory state patient registry, which Melnick and others said discriminates against those using marijuana as medicine.

Medical marijuana is a logical issue for ACLU Maine to work on, Melnick said, because it touches on health care privacy, equal protection under law and incarcera-tion concerns. Maine’s libertarian streak has meant strong support for her group’s position.

She also suggested that marijuana will emerge as an effective treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder among veterans.

Kyle Orce, whose Fresh Solutions LLC was an exhibitor at the trade show, said his business was one of many that worked with tradespeople and artists in the medi-cal marijuana economy. He speculated that soon, large corporations will enter and try to dominate the market as growers, especially if recreational use is legalized in several states.

“The officer didn’t read me my Miranda Rights. Doesthat mean my case will be dismissed”? This is one ofthe most frequently asked questions that I hear fromfolks charged with OUI and other criminal offenses. Theanswer varies from case to case. Here’s what you needto know:

Miranda “warnings” are only required when and ifyou are in custody. Custody means that you are beingrestrained by a law enforcement officer to a degreethat we would normally associate with “formal arrest”.Just being pulled over and asked some questions orto perform field sobriety tests is not enough. Althoughdetained, you are not in “custody” for Miranda purposes.If the handcuffs go on, you are in custody. Each case,each situation must be analyzed on its own specific facts.Slight changes in specific circumstances can change thewhole ball game.

If and when you are in custody (ultimately that is aquestion for a judge to decide), the officer must provideyou with your Miranda warnings prior to “interrogating”you. Interrogation means asking questions orengaging in any conduct that is designed to “elicit anincriminating response”. If you invoke your rights underMiranda (remaining silent, have a lawyer present forexample), interrogation must cease. Again, the courtis the final arbiter of what is interrogation versus simpleadministrative questioning. Violations of your Mirandarights are not dispositive of your case. The remedy,generally, is that the court will exclude the questions andanswers from a potential trial in your case. Further, if youinvoke your Miranda rights, that invocation can not beused against you at trial.

The failure of the officer to provide you with Mirandawarnings is just the tip of a large and sometimescomplex iceberg.

Yarmouth students connect with Sudanese peersBy Will Graff

YARMOUTH — As part of an effort to promote geographic literacy at Har-rison Middle School, students in two seventh-grade classes are writing to stu-dents halfway across the globe.

They are now in the second round of corresponding with Sudanese students at a Ugandan refugee school called Saint Bakhita Nursery and Primary School.

On Tuesday, students in Paula Vi-cenzi’s class were given responses to letters they wrote to those students as part of a presentation by Charles Roscoe, founder and president of the nonprofit Schools for Refugees, which helps fund the refugee school.

“(Harrison Middle School) has been extremely supportive, really embraced it, and it really has worked for both sides,” said Roscoe, a Yarmouth resident, who returned from a trip to Uganda and Kenya last month. “We hope to keep it going fairly regularly.”

Roscoe, along with Brunswick resident Bill Morrell, former vice president of Downeast Energy, shared photos with students in both classes, discussed their trip and the letters the students wrote.

“The English word they had trouble with was ‘awesome,’” Roscoe said to the

class. “Your family was awesome, your friends were awesome, your school was awesome, everything was awesome in your letters, so we had to explain what that meant.”

The letters help the students not only connect with people in other countries, but also get them to think globally, Vi-cenzi said, noting that the entire school participated in writing letters last year.

The idea for Schools for Refugees grew out of a mentoring relationship between Roscoe and a Sudanese immi-grant, Bosco Oringa, who spoke to the class Tuesday.

Roscoe, a retired accountant, signed up for a mentoring program at Portland High School in 2005 and connected with Oringa, who had recently immigrated to the United States as a political refugee,

Electronic publisher aids readers in developing nationsBy Amber Cronin

PORTLAND — An e-book publishing company founded by a former Falmouth resident is giving back to a program that encourages reading in developing na-tions.

Publerati was founded by Caleb Mason after he saw the first iPad.

“I had a hunch that e-books were going to be very transformative so I decided to start an e-book publisher to see what sort of fiction was out there and not getting published,” Mason said.

Most of the books Mason’s company publishes are not ones you would find in a traditional book store, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t artistically worthy of

being published, he said.The book publisher recently expanded

its offerings to India and sub-Saharan Af-rica by partnering with the World Reader organization.

World Reader is a non-profit organiza-tion that provides students and teachers in developing nations with Kindles so that they can have access to a global library of e-books.

Mason said that with this partnership, Publerati will donate no less than five percent of its profits to World Reader to help bring its e-books to readers around

the world.“When I started the business I wanted

it to have a charitable, socially responsi-ble angle,” he said. “(What we are trying to do is to get people to) read e-books,

spread literacy, and attempt to create digitally responsible reading.”Amber Cronin can be reached at acronin@theforecaster.

Recount set in North Yarmouth House election

NORTH YARMOUTH — A recount is scheduled for Thursday, Nov. 15, in the state House District 109 election, where fewer than 30 votes separated the two candidates on Election Day.

Unofficial returns last week had in-cumbent Rep. Anne Graham, D-North Yarmouth, the winner with 2,751 votes.

News briefsHer Republican challenger, former Rep. Susan Austin of Gray, had 2,722.

Austin won in her home town, defeat-ing Graham 1,876 to 1,396 in Gray. But Graham captured North Yarmouth and Pownal, with 1,030 and 325 votes re-spectively, compared with Austin's 623 and 223.

Austin said after the Nov. 6 election that she thought a recount would be con-ducted automatically.

The Bureau of Corporations, Elections and Commissions said Tuesday that the recount would be held at the Public Safety Building in Augusta at 5:30 p.m. Nov. 15.

South Portland gym joins Portland Veterans NetworkBy David Harry

SOUTH PORTLAND — Phil Gouzie has set aside his cane and feels his strength returning to his upper body.

John Bingley attends two 90-minute workouts each week to help stay mobile as he confronts Parkinson’s disease.

Both men are U.S. Navy veterans with health conditions not associated with their tours of duty. They are part of an expanding group of veterans using the Medically Oriented Gym in South Port-land for physical therapy, health evalua-tions and exercise.

The gym on Foden Road, also known by its MOG acronym, was once the site of a company health club operated by Fairchild Semiconductor, and then by Saco Bay Physical Therapy.

Now co-owned by Chris Pribish and Jaclyn Morrill-Chadbourne, with Bill McCormick as a principal partner, the gym programs are tailored to help mem-bers become and stay fit while confront-ing chronic health conditions like cardio-vascular disease, diabetes and orthopedic and musculoskeletal issues.

The gym is open to the public, too, but McCormick and former Navy SEAL

South Portland resident Phil Gouzie, 90, works with trainer Matt Kohler Monday at the Medically Oriented Gym in South Portland. Gouzie is a naval veteran of World War II, part of an expanding membership of veterans who get therapy and exercise for conditions that may not be duty-related. “I was starting to walk like an old man, I didn’t like it,” he said.

DaviD Harry / THe ForecasTer

Chris Tyll of North Yarmouth have made MOG a part of the Portland Veterans Net-work, established by the Greater Portland Regional Chamber. Tyll, who recently ran unsuccessfully for the state Senate in District 11, is chairman of the Portland Veterans Network.

Tyll and McCormick said they want to attract veterans of all ages to the gym as a way for veterans like Bingley, 74, and Gouzie, 90, who are long past their days of service, to stay fit, socialize and get the best of recommended physician care.

Through this Saturday, the gym is waiving its $49 enrollment fee and dis-

Beem ignores ‘nincompoops’ who toe the party line

As I read Edgar Allen Beem’s column of Nov. 7, I found myself both irritated and disappointed. While I was bothered by the “where is he going with this?” style rant-ing about early voting, my real problem with Mr. Beem’s piece is when he goes on to call “undecided” voters “ig-norant” and “uninformed” for not having chosen between Obama and Romney. How “ignorant or uninformed” is Mr. Beem that he doesn’t realize there were quite a few more choices than “Obama or Rom-ney” to be made?

Mr. Beem makes a sound point, however, when he writes that “the differences between (Obama and Romney) are not subtle.” In fact, be-sides their stances on a few talking-point issues, their differences are non-existent. Like Jim Lehrer, many of us found ourselves asking, “is there a difference between the two of you?” Is there any surprise that a number of people remained “undecided?” Mr. Beem gets one thing right: “the fate of this nation is now decided by nincompoops.” The “nincompoops” who we repeatedly send to Washington to fail to represent us, and the “nin-

Frank misses the point about Citizens United

Most people have enough common sense to reject the ideas that corporations are people, and that money is

speech, through deductive reasoning. Yet these concepts have been codified into law by our Supreme Court in the oligarchical “Citizens United” ruling. Halsey Frank’s recent column extolling the supposed logic of this ruling left out several vital considerations, one of

which is that freedom of speech is but one of our rights. Another is freedom of association, including freedom of disassociation.

It is obvious by now that the court’s contentions that this ruling would include disclosure, and that groups engaged in political advertising would not be allowed contact with candidates running for office, were naive. Justice Ken-

compoops” like Mr. Beem who continue to proudly sound the battle cry of their chosen party as they charge over the cliff, dragging the entire country with them.

Jordan OssiePortland

nedy insisted that disclosure would be part and parcel of Citizens United. Enforcement is nonexistent; the corporate perpetrators are hiding behind loopholes, and faceless lay-ers of cowardliness.

If my letter is printed, my name will be included, and verified, but billionaire corporate entities, that may be based in foreign countries that do not have our best in-terests at heart, are allowed to hide their identities behind Citizens United. I want to be allowed my right to dissoci-ate myself from any products or services sold, that enable corporations to pay for their free speech right to propagan-dize. But I can’t find out who is doing the propagandizing, specifically because of Citizens United, and that, Halsey Frank, is my case against it.

ScaredScared

Lawmakers must ignore party ideology

Now that the elections are over, it is my hope that our newly elected and re-elected state and federal rep-resentatives will waste no time in focusing on the issues of concern to older Mainers and their families. Issues such as financial and health security are of paramount importance to many of our older residents. The next Congress will be making decisions about the future of Social Security and Medicare. There are many options likely to be considered in 2013 that will have an effect on the long-term solvency of both of these programs. Now the work truly begins and I am looking forward to hearing how campaign promises will turn into meaningful action.

Here in Maine, the 126th Leg-islature will need to find ways to balance the state budget without cutting programs that are so im-portant to some of our most at-risk residents. As we head into the coldest months of the year, the challenges for older Mainers will undoubtedly grow. We need to protect our long-term care services and support and strengthen consumer protections so Mainers can stay in their own homes and communities as they age.

I hope our representatives will reach across the aisle and work together to find solutions that make sense now

State representative thanks Falmouth constituents

Thank you for giving me the honor of representing House District 122 for another term.

I am committed to working on an agenda of trying to improve Maine’s economy and competitiveness, of facilitating jobs and job training for Maine’s people, of strengthening our educational institu-tions by investing in higher education as well as early childhood education programs, and of protecting and pre-

serving Maine’s extraordinary environment. I will listen to you, and I will work every day to support policies that will build partnerships and help Maine to prosper.

Elections are also referenda on the work and the leadership demonstrated over the years. I have tried to respond to constituents’ concerns over the past four years, to listen to your advice and counsel, and to work every day to do what seems to me best for Falmouth

The slippery slope of same-sex marriage?

As a lifelong non-voter I must confess to not knowing the ballot initiative language in regard to Question 1. I do however, watch TV on occasion, recently catching a local ad in favor of same-sex marriage. The older couple in the commercial argued that “all committed, loving couples in Maine should be able to marry.” With the passage of this law, does that now mean that I can marry my first cousin (she’s some hot) or multiple wives?

and for the future. I encourage all Mainers to play an active role in watching how things unfold in the months and years ahead and making sure their voices are heard throughout.

and for Maine. This election shows that local politics are still about meeting and talking face to face with voters. I knocked on almost 2,400 doors over the past three months, and I talked with many, many of you. An out-of-state super PAC spent significant money trying to influence the election, but Falmouth voters chose to be represented by the candidate who, I hope, demon-strated a record of effective, bipartisan leadership over the past four years, and who listened to their concerns. Thank you for the confidence you have expressed in me. I look forward to staying in touch and to working hard on your behalf.

Election 2012 produced some unexpected resultsThis was my son Bob-

by’s first presidential elec-tion. The first time I voted for president, Richard Nix-on soundly trounced the recently deceased George McGovern. By that I mean McGovern passed away recently, not shortly be-fore running for president, although he could hardly have done worse if he had been dead.

Ironically, McGovern, so humiliated in the elec-tion, saw his reputation as a public servant grow over the years, while the triumphant Nixon’s fall from grace would have given Felix Baumgartner a run for his money.

Was this election as engaging for Bobby and his contemporaries? It’s apples and oranges in some ways.

The culture was so different back then. We weren’t in the grip of a 24-hour news cycle. The Internet hadn’t turned every idiot with a computer into a potential pun-dit. The media had only begun the process of monetiz-ing controversy at the expense of journalistic integrity. Party hacks were tentatively dipping their toes into the ooze of dirty tricks that have since become a fixture of political campaigns.

Not that everything was different in 1972. We were deeply divided over seemingly irreconcilable visions of the future. The incumbent president was in the process of extricating us from an expensive, unwinnable war without making the country look weak. The challenger made a number of public relations gaffes early that severely damaged his credibility.

Bob exercised the franchise differently than I did all those years ago. He used an absentee ballot, which may be the wave of the future. My wife took similar advantage of early voting, even though she goes to our polling place, Scarborough High School, every day as a classroom volunteer. Taking a ballot home allowed her to study the candidates and get on the record early in an

election that meant a lot to her.I’m not saying I took this election less seriously, but

I did not vote early because I prefer to vote the Ameri-can Way. I flip through the election materials while I’m standing in line and then go with the answer that “feels right” when I’m standing in the booth. Don’t judge me. This country was built by people who had no idea what they were getting themselves into.

Bobby’s absentee voting was the price of attending a great school for him. He’s in Chicago because when he was applying for college, we encouraged him to find the best fit regardless of location, in much the same way my parents encouraged me, with a couple of wrinkles: I could apply to as many schools as I wanted, as long as one of them was the University of Michigan, and I could go to the school that was the best fit for me, as long as it was named the University of Michigan. Absentee ballots never became necessary.

Another thing Bob did differently: asking his parents’ opinions. If there were people in my age group in 1972 that asked their parents what they thought of, well, any-

When I went to bed on Election Day I was bummed out because, despite the fact that Presi-dent Obama and marriage equality had prevailed, I was under the impression that state Sen. Dick Woodbury had been unseated by a former Navy SEAL with the backing of tens of thousands of dollars of out of state money.

I woke up Wednes-day morning to discover that the Yarmouth vote had not come in when I went to bed. When Yarmouth was count-ed, we carried Wood-bury over the top to victory.

For the first time in my life, I won the Election Day lot-tery – everyone and everything I voted for won. Though other votes had more wide-ranging implications, I was most happy that my fellow District 11 voters had understood that there was no reason not to re-elect Dick Woodbury.

Challenger Chris Tyll waged an energetic and expensive campaign, plastering the area with his plywood signs and even getting U.S. Sen. Olym-pia Snowe to do a voice-over for him. I guess that’s what galled me most. Snowe claims she is leaving the U.S. Senate because of partisan grid-lock and says she plans to support candidates who will work in a bipartisan way to solve problems. But that, Sen. Snowe, is Dick Woodbury.

The local pundits had expected the insurgent Tyll to upset the incumbent Woodbury, but Tyll was not the biggest loser on Nov. 6.

Charlie Summers would be a contender for that title, losing his fourth campaign for statewide of-fice. It should be pretty clear to Summers at this point that Maine people don’t want him represent-ing them in Washington. Summers will also lose his job as secretary of state now that Democrats

have retaken control of both houses of the Legis-lature.

In terms of historic relevance, the biggest los-ers last Tuesday were the religious self-righteous who opposed gay marriage. Now that Maine has become the first state in the nation to embrace gay marriage by popular referendum, history will understand anti-gay Christians as opponents of civil rights.

In terms of sheer dollars wasted, the biggest losers were the nefarious Republican Super PACs and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, which spent millions of dollars on the U.S. Senate race trying to defeat Angus King. I assume heads will roll at the U.S. Chamber unless their corporate donors are as stupid as their policy advisers.

The title of Biggest Loser 2012, however, goes to Gov. Paul LePage. This election was a referen-dum on his two years of loud-mouthed leadership. Mainers put Democrats back in charge because we are sick and tired of LePage, his my-way-or-the-highway style and his blame-the-victim public policy agenda. Not only will LePage now have to contend with a Legislature controlled by the very Democrats he insulted, he will also lose his conservative allies in the constitutional offices. Summers will be out as secretary of state, Bruce Poliquin will be sent packing as treasurer and William Schneider will be dumped as attorney general.

Since there is no chance LePage will be re-elected in 2014, if he plans to accomplish any-thing at all while still in office he is going to have to wake up to the fact that governing is the art of compromise. It is a collaborative endeavor, not a cage fight. If Paul LePage is smart, and there has been precious little evidence of that to date, he will take his own advice and start kissing some butt.

thing, I did not travel in those circles. As baby boomers, we were far too busy telling our parents that everything they knew was wrong, saying “the streets belong to the people, man,” and asking them for more money. Never to inquire how they were voting and why.

Bobby, on the other hand, wanted to know how we viewed the three-way race for the U.S. Senate, and if we thought Scarborough really needed a new fire truck. I have no idea how he ended up voting. Maybe my generation has raised overly dependent children the way my parents raised rebellious ones. It felt good to be asked what we thought, though, as if we must have done something well as parents to have a teenage child who occasionally cares what we think.

Another thing or two occurred to me about the elec-tion. On Wednesday, Bobby texted us to say he was pretty proud of America right about then. I’m sure he meant it in a partisan way, but my reaction when I read it was not about winners and losers. My pride, and I was pretty proud myself, was about the system we have and the energy so many people put into this election. It’s still early, people are still in the gloating and pouting stage, which is to be expected, if not welcomed.

What impressed me about the election, as chaotic and ugly as it seemed at times, was how many people were actively engaged. There are a lot of smart and caring

people in this country. It is easy to forget that when we put on our daily blinders. If this election served no other purpose, it showed how many people who, regardless of political affiliation, care enough about this country’s welfare to get involved. I’m grateful that my son got to feel that during his first election. With luck, it will inform his commitment to the process in the future.

So, if you were out stumping for Mitt Romney, thank you.

If you campaigned for President Obama, thank you.If you were on a phone bank for a candidate, thank

you.If you volunteered to help run a polling place, thank

you.If you were manning a table for a greener Maine, or

to raise money for an organization, thank you.Finally, even though I hated every one of them, if

you were one of the people who put signs on every conceivable square foot of roadside, thank you. Thank you even more for getting rid of them, but thank you for taking part in the process. You were helping to show the best of us.

a silver bullet for a recommendation.”In addition to being a tool for at-home

use by students and parents, Peters said PossibilityU works with nine schools in Maine, New York, Massachusetts and California. Counselors at the schools can see the progress of the students and assign work to help them navigate the process, she said.

Despite being a guide and a helper, Canter said no service or counselor can find the right school for a student.

“There are dating services that say they have scientific tools, but most people acknowledge that it’s kind of luck and pluck,” he said. “Your kid’s got to de-cide. There are no secrets; it’s an inexact science.”

Doane said the most important thing to remember is to maintain communication.

“There’s a lot of misinformation out there and having students, parents and the school work closely together is the key to all this,” she said.

Patricia L. Kimball, 82: Loved baking, camping and her family

CUMBERLAND — Patricia L. Kim-ball, 82, died at home on Nov. 5 after a period of declining health. She was born on Aug. 12, 1930, in West Cumberland, the only child of Joseph and Frances (Nelson) Romano.

She was educat-ed in Cumberland schools and graduat-ed from Greely High School with the class of 1948. She then at-tended Northeastern Business School in Portland and had her first job at Hayes Drug Store.

She married Herbert Kimball, her husband of 61 years, on Feb. 3, 1951, in South Portland. Kimball was a home-maker for her three children and she cre-ated many wonderful memories. It was not uncommon for her children to have warm cookies waiting for them when they got off the bus. True to her heritage she was great at cooking Italian food and excelled at candy making, especially her peanut butter fudge.

Over the years Kimball was affiliated with Avon and was a member of the Pres-ident’s Club many times. She enjoyed playing Uno, the piano, cross-stitch, cro-chet and camping, most recently at Pine Tree Acres in Buckfield. For the past 11 years the couple wintered in Wauchula, Fla.

She is survived by her husband, Her-bert J. Kimball, of Hartford; her daughter, Judith Bouffard and her children Shawn, James, and Sarah; her son, David Kim-ball, his wife, Karen Knight, and their son, Derek; her son, Bruce Kimball, his wife, Laurie Childers, and their son, Jesse; and her four great-grandchildren Brooks, Logan, Ben and Morgan.

A celebration of her life will be held next spring. For those who wish, do-nations may be made in her memory to: Alzheimer’s Association, Maine Chapter, 383 U.S. Route One, Suite 2C, Scarborough, ME 04074.

Students learn the value of service, complete projects

FALMOUTH—Juniors at Falmouth High School recently studied the Ameri-can Revolution and Benjamin Franklin, exploring his diverse areas of interest and virtues. By reading parts of “The Auto-biography of Ben Franklin,” students learned Franklin was a prodigious inven-tor who never patented his inventions and wrote “as we enjoy great advantages from the inventions of others, we should be glad of an opportunity to serve oth-ers by an invention of ours; and this we should do freely and generously.”

The schools service learning coordina-tor worked with 136 students to create community service projects in honor of Franklin’s legacy. They kept journals, wrote reflections, and gave presentations

Contributed

to their classmates. They performed more than 900 hours of service in a two-week span. The volunteer projects varied from soup kitchens, trail work, working with young children and elders, clothing and food drives, yoga instruction, and build-ing shelving for the school guidance department. Many students continue to volunteer.

After the experience, student Jiao Jin-tao said “I believe that the world will be more beautiful if everyone does some-thing to help others.”

his wife, Marsha.

counting membership fees 15 percent for active and retired military personnel.

Morrill-Chadbourne said all new mem-bers receive thorough screenings before they exercise and therapy programs are tailored for the best results. Members are re-evaluated quarterly.

The approach is unique, she said, merg-ing disciplines while encouraging workout and fitness in individual and group settings as a way to reduce future medical expenses.

“Physical therapists can be the center of this model,” Morrill-Chadbourne said.

Tyll said Pribish and Morrill-Chadbourne are adept at understanding veterans’ needs and providing guidance and encourage-ment.

“Chris never served, but he can put vet-erans in their comfort zone. He is going to be your enemy at about minute 40 of your workout, but the next day, you are going to thank him,” Tyll said. “It is going to help anybody re-acclimate, no matter if they were injured or not.”

Bingley served in the Navy from 1959 to 1962, and much of his duty was in an

underwater demolitions team preceding the establishment of the Navy SEALs. In civilian life, he was a trial lawyer, including work with the U.S. Department of Justice Civil Rights Division.

His wife, Marsha Bingley, said he stayed active after the service, mostly jogging and swimming. But Parkinson’s disease affects the central nervous system, causing mus-cular tremors and difficulty walking; John Bingley is still able to swim and his MOG workouts involve movements designed to enhance communication between his brain and muscles.

“It is a problem, but it is not insurmount-able,” he said.

From his days as the champion wrestler on his submarine in World War II until his late wife, Grace, became ill, Gouzie stayed active and fit. He cared for his wife as her health declined; they were married 61 years when she died in March.

“‘I do’ means I do,” Gouzie said.Gouzie has spinal stenosis, and lost 50

pounds as he cared for his wife. He was referred to MOG and saw quick results.

“I was starting to walk like an old man. I didn’t like that,” he said.

His workouts include 15-minute bike rides, leg stretches, and pulling exercises to rebuild his upper body. On Monday, his daughter, Connie Libby, sat and watched him work with trainer Matt Kohler.

“I’m just so happy. He is getting stronger and he has made friends,” Libby said.

Tyll said the social aspect also has ben-efits for veterans.

“The stories swapped in the locker room may be a part of the healing process,” he said.

Tyll and McCormick said the MOG approach works with anyone confronting chronic health issues, and McCormick hopes insurance companies and physicians will take notice of tangible results.

Charity Hirst, director of marketing at the gym, said staff is creating more detailed instruction pads for physicians to give patients who need exercise and physical

therapy.“The icebreaker is we spend so much time

with people in the beginning, developing trust and camaraderie,” McCormick said.

first page ... there have been 66 amendments from 1986 to 2012. Not that all of those amendments affect business practices, but there are a lot of unintended consequences that flow from many of those amendments. Historically, we’ve responded to a perceived problem rather than working together to create business solutions for the future.”

Berry said the council needs to limit the number of negative restrictions – like the proposed footprint limit for businesses in the SB1 zoning district along Route 1.

Elizabeth Moss, owner of Elizabeth Moss Gallery in the Falmouth Shopping Center agreed, adding that a footprint limit that restricts the size of businesses not only ef-fects businesses thinking about coming to Falmouth, but also the ones that are already in town.

The proposed ordinance, which the council was scheduled to discuss in a work-shop on Wednesday night, limits business footprints to 50,000 square feet and could limit the flexibility of businesses to redis-tribute existing space, including the vacant, 52,000-square-foot former Shaw’s building at the Falmouth Shopping Center.

The council delayed a vote on the ordi-nance last month after the business commu-

nity strongly encouraged a review of some aspects of the ordinance.

Moss, whose business has been the shop-ping center since 2004, said that without viable anchor stores, small businesses like hers will continue to struggle.

“I’m probably down 35 percent of where I would be if the center was full, maybe higher based on testimonial from my sur-rounding business owners who have been here longer,” she said.

Moss added that if the town wants to create a walkable, downtown district, it must re-envision the shopping center and work with businesses to bring new tenants into the space. This means not enacting ordinances that would limit the use of the space, she said.

Berry said the council’s attempts to create a business-friendly environment in Falmouth fall short because councilors do not listen to and work with businesses to create ordinances that work for everyone.

But Council Vice Chairwoman Bonny Rodden said the council has invited the business community to be a part of the pro-cess from the beginning, inviting business owners to committee meetings and ensuring they are aware of developments.

She also said that just saying the town is anti-business doesn’t make it so, and the council is making decisions for the future of the entire town, not just the business community.

“I don’t think that we are anti-business,” she said. “What we are trying to do here is to define our community so that in the long run we will attract more business because we have something special to offer.”amber cronin can be reached at [email protected] or 781-3661 ext. 125.

Locals run at New EnglandsBy Michael Hoffer

The Falmouth Yachtsmen boys and a few select individuals par-ticipated in the final event of the cross country season, the New England championships, Saturday at Twin Brook.

Falmouth wound up 26th out of 30 scoring teams (Bishop Hen-dricken High School of Rhode Island was first).

The Yachtsmen were led by sophomore Bryce Murdick, who came in 51st for scoring pur-poses with a time of 17 minutes, 40.82 seconds on the 5-kilometer course. Senior Jay Lesser placed 64th (17:52.94). Also scoring were freshman Josh Simensky (136th, 18:41), sophomore Spen-cer Brown (145th, 18:46.05) and sophomore Scott Lambert (155th,

18:51.53).“Both (Bryce and Jay) ran very

well,” said Falmouth co-coach Jorma Kurry. “Josh also had a nice run for a freshman in his first trip to New Englands. For a young team, it was a good experience. The competition was tough and the team really got a taste of what they can shoot for going forward.”

“It went pretty well,” added

Yachtsmen co-coach Danny Paul. “It was a good experience for young team.”

Greely senior Nate Madeira, Merriconeag senior Jack Pierce and Yarmouth junior Braden Beck-er all participated as individuals.

Pierce, the individual Class C champion, had the 12th-best time and third-best from Maine (16:43.54). Madeira was 52nd

(17:19.62). Becker’s time of 18:01.81 left him 119th.

Two Greely girls took part as well. Junior Kirstin Sandreuter had the 13th-best time and was second from Maine (19:40.78). Sophomore Eva Bates placed 55th (20:35.36).Sports Editor Michael Hoffer can be reached at [email protected]. Follow him on

Freeport’s Best takes over SMCC women’s teamBy Michael Hoffer

Freeport native Sabrina Best hoped to become a head women’s basketball coach someday, but someday arrived unexpectedly early last month.

On the eve on the season, the Southern Maine Community College women’s program was thrown for a loop when last year’s successful and popular coach, Kendra Reichert, had to step down suddenly as her husband took a job out of state.

After a 15-12 campaign in 2011-12 and with several key players returning, the Seawolves had high hopes, but suddenly found themselves without a coach.

Enter Best.A former Seawolves player

and assistant for the past two seasons, Best convinced SMCC men’s coach and athletic director Matt Richards that she was the optimal fit.

“I was told on Oct. 2 (the day after first practice) that (Kendra leaving) was a possibility,” Rich-ards said. “The next day I met with Sabrina. The next day we found out it was going to happen, so we made the decision to pro-mote her to head coach. Sabrina’s commitment level to the program

was a selling point for me. She has passion for Seawolves bas-ketball as a former player and a member of the staff. She’s done a nice job embracing the situation. It’s a very mature approach to a difficult situation.”

“It’s gone a lot smoother than a lot of people imagined,” Best said. “It helped that I knew the girls, I knew the style of SMCC and who we play. That part was easy. That’s usually a struggle for a new coach coming in. I went from not having to be at practice until 15 minutes before to wor-rying about progress reports and if girls were in class. That’s the biggest challenge.”

The Seawolves have responded amazingly well to the sudden change, winning five of their first six games.

SMCC earned a big dose of confidence in the opener, a 70-66 win over the University of New Brunswick in the Can-Am tour-nament.

“It was huge for the girls to get off to a good start,” said Best. “It was such a big confidence boost. The first game was really close. We were down one late and I had to burn my last timeout. I told them I couldn’t stop play

Oratorio Chorale opens its seasonBy Scott Andrews

By mid-November, nearly every per-forming arts organization in southern Maine has opened its fall-winter-spring season. One of the last to start is the Mid-Coast-based Oratorio Chorale, which has a pair of concerts coming up Saturday and Sunday in Topsham and Yarmouth. Music director Peter Frewen has selected works by Franz Schubert and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

The Portland Symphony Orchestra will again play under the baton of a guest con-ductor this Sunday. The visiting maestro will be Timothy Myers, who normally

helms the North Carolina Opera. Another visiting artist will be longtime Canadian Brass hornist Jeff Nelsen.

Veteran bluesman John Hammond will visit Portland’s One Longfellow Square on Saturday. Hammond will be appearing a few days past his 70th birthday celebra-tion, but more importantly, this year he’s celebrating his 50th year as a professional musician.

Oratorio ChoraleThe Oratorio Chorale opens its 39th

season this weekend with performances in Topsham and Yarmouth, accompa-nied by instrumentalists from the Maine

Chamber Ensemble.The Oratorio Chorale is an indepen-

dent auditioned ensemble numbering between 35 and 40 singers that has been prominent in the Mid-Coast and southern Maine since 1974. Their repertoire ranges from Baroque to contemporary, and they produce their own three-concert season and frequently collaborate with orches-tras and other musical entities.

Music director Peter Frewen, who has led the group since 1975, has selected a program featuring pieces by Franz Schubert and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart that illustrate the combined effects of col-

ors of sound and passionate expression.Schubert’s Mass in E Flat was written

in 1828, only a year before the compos-er’s death, and Frewen notes its enormous range. Frewen comments that the work is characterized by “large shapes of sound, achieving powerful, intense climaxes and satisfying every discerning aesthetic and emotive response.”

Three smaller works by Mozart round out the program. “Sanctus Maria” and “Misericordia Domini” reflect the Latin tradition of the Catholic Church, while “Eine Kleine Nachtmusik” is one of Mozart’s best-known short instrumental essays.

This concert will be performed twice this weekend: at Orion Performing Arts Center (Mt. Ararat Middle School) in Topsham at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 17 and Sacred Heart Church in Yarmouth at 3 p.m. Nov. 18. Call 798-7985.

John HammondJohn Hammond, a veteran bluesman

who is celebrating a pair of life’s land-marks in 2012, will be the featured artist this Saturday at One Longfellow Square.

Landmarks of life? For starters, Ham-mond turned 70 years old on Tuesday. But more significantly, 2012 marks a half-century as a professional musician. Also this year Hammond was inducted into the New York Blues Hall of Fame, an honor which follows last year’s National Blues Hall of Fame.

Born in New York City into a musical family, Hammond started playing guitar and singing in high school. By 1962 – not yet 20 years old – he was living in Green-

Out & About

Veteran bluesman John Hammond will be appearing at One Longfellow Square in Portland on Saturday, Nov. 17. This year marks Hammond’s 50th anniversary as a professional musician.

wich Village, playing for paychecks and hanging out and performing with some of the leading lights of that formative and profoundly influential musical scene: Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton and Duane Allman. Hammond formed his own group, and for a brief period in the 1960s, both Clapton and Hendrix were band mates.

Although Hammond never enjoyed the immense popular fame achieved by some of his musical confederates, he has persisted in his art. Among his achieve-ment are 33 albums, which stretch from the days of the 33 rpm LP vinyl record into today’s digital download era. Ham-mond show no signs of slowing down: Seven of his albums date from after 2000 and the most recent, “Rough & Tough,” was released three years ago. It garnered a Grammy nomination for Best Blues Album.

Hammond plays a National Reso-Phonic guitar, which was designed for blues guitarists in the 1930s. It is char-acterized by a metallic cone that projects and naturally amplifies the sound. Strings are plucked with finger picks and the fre-quencies (notes) are defined by sliding a steel cylinder across the neck, rather than by pressing the strings against frets.

(Purely by happenstance, this week marks the second consecutive Maine performance by an artist whose spe-cialty is the acoustic resonator guitar. On Saturday, Jerry Douglas performed in Westbrook.)

Myers will conduct the orchestra. My-ers, who helms North Carolina Opera, is a friend and associate of PSO music director Robert Moody, who is a native Carolinian and also leads a symphony in Winston-Salem. Myers is known as a

technically precise conductor who also enjoys a rapidly growing reputation as one of the youngest American maestros to emerge upon the national music scene.

The second guest will be virtuoso Jeff

Nelsen, who will do the solo honors in Strauss’ Horn Concerto No. 1. For more than two decades Nelsen has forged a career in both symphonic and popular settings. He is best known as the horn-ist with the Canadian Brass, but he’s also had solo engagements with major symphony orchestras across his native land and the U.S. On the popular side, he’s played in the pit for two Broadway shows.

The first two pieces on the program are by Carl Maria von Weber and Claude Debussy. The former was the quintes-sential German Romantic artist, while the latter was the epitome of French musical impressionism – a term that the composer himself detested.

The Strauss concerto, which dates from 1883, follows. PSO program annotator Mark Rohr notes that the concerto was written by the son of a virtuoso horn player, commenting that “Richard Strauss’ works show both a love for the instrument and a canny awareness of its capabilities.”

The second half of the concert will be devoted to a single major 20th-century work, the orchestral suite from Stravin-sky’s “The Firebird,” a landmark ballet that was introduced in Paris in 1910. The suite, which was assembled and premiered 35 years after the ballet score, is Stravinsky’s most popular symphonic work. Its brash colors and dynamic rhythms are both challenging and pleas-ing, and the finale is particularly well loved. “The celebrated closing pages are some of the most thrilling music ever written,” explains Rohr.

Catch the Portland Symphony Orches-tra at Merrill Auditorium at Portland City Hall at 2:30 p.m. Nov. 18. Call PortTix at 842-0800.

Holiday Gift GuideA tasty twist on turkey

leftoversWhen you're planning your big turkey

dinner, the one thing you want to be sure to do is get a turkey big enough for some delicious leftovers. While turkey sand-wiches are good, there's a lot more you can do with this tasty bird.

Breakfast or Brunch - Wake the family up to a hearty breakfast casserole that's a creamy blend of turkey, sour cream, cream of chicken soup, cheese and hash browns. It has a crunchy topping with a surprise ingredient; and you can finish it off with a dollop of fresh and flavorful Wholly Guacamole. Make it ahead of time so all you have to do is pop it into the oven in the morning.

Quick Turkey TidbitsNeed some more inspiration for turkey

leftovers? Try one of these easy snack ideas:

Turkey nachos - Shredded turkey, peppers, onions, black olives and cheese on lime-flavored nacho chips. Top with chunky guac, salsa or sour cream.

Turkey bites - Top your favorite crackers with a little turkey and a slice of pepper Jack cheese. Microwave until the cheese starts to melt. Add a dollop of salsa or guac.

Mini mexi-pizzas - Split an English muffin, and spread a little salsa on each

Holiday gifts that keep on givingIf you’re looking for something differ-

ent to give as a holiday gift this year, you might want to consider a gift that’s more than just “stuff.” Many individuals and families are looking for alternate giving ideas that help people in need. And with one in eight people going to sleep hungry every night worldwide, there is plenty of need to be met.

One way you can give a gift that makes a life-changing difference is to shop via Heifer International, a nonprofit humani-tarian organization dedicated to ending hunger and caring for the Earth. Heifer currently provides livestock, trees, seeds and training in environmentally sound ag-riculture practices to families in more than 40 countries, including the United States.

Since 1944, Heifer has helped more than 15.5 million smallholder farmer families in more than 125 countries move toward greater self-reliance.

Heifer is drawing attention to the need and the opportunity to help through their “AltGift” and “NOW” campaigns, which, respectively, encourage honoring loved ones by giving alternative gifts, as well as showcasing the powerful success stories of women and families who can now improve their nutrition, generate income, and Pass On the Gift to others in their communities.

Here are some exciting ways you and your family can give an alternative gift that will help other families in need:

• Shop the Gift Catalog at www.heifer.org. Donate a flock of chicks, a rabbit,

a goat, a water buffalo or maybe even a heifer to a family somewhere in the world. Your gift will improve their nutrition and help them generate income in sustainable ways.

• Contribute to one of Heifer’s Special Giving Opportunities. Participate in the Worldbuilders Match Challenge; become a Friend of Heifer to make a monthly gift; or donate to the Disaster Rehabilitation Fund to provide resources that make long-term recovery from natural disasters possible.

• Fund a project. You and your family can choose a particular project and help fund the gifts of livestock, training for the community and veterinary care needed to make the project successful.

• Join Team Heifer. Whether as a family

or part of a faith or community group, you can team up with others to raise funds and help Heifer recipients Pass on the Gift, becoming donors themselves who help others in need.

• Honor someone with your gift. When you give a gift in someone’s name, they will receive an Honor Card to let them know about the special gift you’ve given.

When you give to others, making it possible for them to lift themselves out of poverty and become self-reliant in a sus-tainable way, you are giving a life-altering gift that will have a positive ripple effect for years to come. Learn more about how you can receive the joy of giving at www.heifer.org.

Dramafrom page 1


ContributedGreely High School’s theater company will present “42nd Street” Thursday through Sunday. Tickets can be purchased at the door and cost $9 for adults and $6 for seniors and students.

satisfying to teach students who may not have that much desire to simply enjoy the theater.

“Not all kids are like that, that’s a rela-tively smaller few that choose to do this professionally, but it’s a pretty remark-able transformation to see,” Northway said. “That’s really satisfying to see as a director, but it’s also really satisfying to see the kid who is probably never going on to perform outside of high school, but they will become the next generation of audience members.”

At Falmouth High School, Director Dede Waite said students grow so much because they have a chance to experience all parts of the production process.

The Theatre Company at Falmouth High School’s third fall production, “The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe,” was brought to Waite’s attention by a group of sophomore students who want-ed to take on the show. The production, which runs Dec. 6-8, is entirely student -driven, with some direction from Waite.

“I said ‘I will give you eight to 10 rehearsals and we will keep the set very simple and we will get the costumes put together, but you have to do everything – lines, blocking, you have to have it all

down,’ and they’ve done it,” Waite said.She said that if this production goes

well, she will continue the model in years to come.

Northway said Greely’s program is less student-driven as far as picking plays, be-cause there are so many students involved in the program, but that students drive the production in other ways.

Students began tap rehearsals for their

production of “42nd Street,” which opens Thursday and runs through Sunday, in the middle of August. Northway said she chose the show because it is a “wonder-ful look” at the life of a production, but also because it could accommodate the 50 students involved.

“I try to choose a show that has a large ensemble and (“42nd Street”) is one of those great shows that really allows stu-

dents with many different talents to be involved,” she said.

Both Waite and Northway said that so many students get involved in the theater programs because they are inclu-sive groups where the students have the chance to challenge themselves.

“(Theater) touches such a spectrum,” Waite said. “We have the top athletes, the top students, the kids who do nothing else (but theater), the STEM kids who are running toward tech. We have the top people in the school and students who barely make it.”

Waite said that she hopes the commu-nity will get involved and fill the seats at Falmouth High School to see “The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe,” but that people should attend all of the local high school productions.

“Get out and support these young people because you’re not just supporting them, you’re getting the chance to see live theater well done,” she said. “This art is so important. We have an audience that comes from all over the greater Portland area because the shows are so well done.”Amber Cronin can be reached at acronin@theforecaster.

wolves have made a living from downtown.“Having seven post players, you’d think

our strength would be our inside game, but our 3-point shooting has been phenomenal,” said Best. “We’re still trying to figure out who works well together. Our returners and newcomers have hit big 3s. Our guards are amazing. Rogetta Donalson (18 points versus New Brunswick, 22 points in the loss to CCRI) is the type of girl you can put the ball in her hands and something will happen. She can make great drives to

the basket, hit big 3s and make crazy passes no one will expect. Emily Bard (25 points against Navy Prep and 13 points versus Dalhousie) is a shooter. I’m hoping she’s more consistent this year. Esther will hit 3s. Tiana Burton (nine points, five assists, three steals versus Unity) took a year off, but she’s back. She’s a true point guard. Esther can handle the role, but I like her as a shooter.”

There are several other players to watch as well.

“Alicia Hoyt (18 points, 13 rebounds in the opener) is out right now with a shoulder injury, but she’s coming back,” said Best. “She eats up the inside game. Maria Veino

(15 points against Hampshire College) is a consistent player. You can expect eight points, eight rebounds from her. She gives it her all. Nyalieb Deng (16 points versus Navy Prep and 10 points against Unity) will contribute.”

While the Seawolves have a lot of tests to come and will face an abundance of challengers in the conference, Best and the players have their sights set high.

“I could see this team winning the Yankee Conference,” Best said. “I think our biggest competition will be Central Maine. It’s a great rivalry. They have great returners. We play completely different styles. When we play, it will be very interesting to see who

comes out on top. We have the personnel to matchup well.

“We knew from Day One that champi-onship teams are made by the way they overcome adversity. We started with a huge bump in the road and we’ve overcome very well. Our goal is to win the conference and go to Nationals. It’s not an unrealistic goal, especially with the start we’ve had. I’m a very positive person and with our staff be-ing positive, it’s made for an easy transition. We’ll make the best out of it.”

and other organizations in New York City, where his last position before “retirement” was serving as associate counsel for the Office of Professional Medical Conduct for the New York State Department of Health.

Even during his working years, Smith threw himself into community service. He served as chairman of the Community Ser-vice Society, a social welfare and advocacy organization with an annual budget of $13 million; as a trustee for Barrier Free Living, an agency devoted to providing transitional housing for people with disabilities, and as chairman of the Health Systems Agency of the City of New York, an agency dedicated to health-care planning policy.

When Smith retired in 2007 and moved to Falmouth, he immediately sought out challenging and rewarding service ac-tivities. “When you’re first retired,” he said, “it’s like falling off a cliff with no office to go to.”

A week before Smith moved to Maine with his wife Ann, a fellow board member suggested he consider volunteering for the Community Counseling Center in Portland. He was quickly recruited to the board and currently serves as chairman of the orga-nization dedicated, he said, “to providing quality mental health care at the least cost possible.”

Mary Jane Krebs, chief executive officer of the center, said “David is fabulous. He has brought real professionalism and in-sights to the board. He has a great head, a great heart, and he’s always willing to help. I trust him implicitly.”

For some people, major responsibility on just one nonprofit board would suffice. But Smith is not “some people.”

He discovered that the Southern Maine Agency on Aging was seeking volunteers to help people who were about to retire navigate the various decisions associated with going on Medicare. He went through

the necessary training and soon was asked to lead monthly seminars on the subject.

Smith leads five two-hour seminars a month, each attended by 12-18 people. And he joined the SMAA board.

“It’s challenging and fun to help people understand a complex process,” Smith said.

Eileen Whynot, communications director for the agency, said “David is a fabulous listener, and he thoughtfully answers ques-tions, often staying at the end of seminars to answer questions. He keeps up-to-date in the ever-changing health insurance world, and he can often answer complex questions. If not, he’ll doggedly find explanations or answers and follow up with his ‘student.’

“David is also called upon to speak to community groups explaining the ABC’s of Medicare as a valued member of SMAA’s Medicare Team, devoting many hours of his time to accomplish this high-level work.”

Mary Hadlock, Medicare Volunteer Co-ordinator of SMAA, shared Eileen’s deep appreciation and respect for Smith’s signifi-cant efforts: “Just today we got an e-mail

about one of David’s seminars, which said, ‘Nice work shedding absolute clarity on one of the most complicated and intricate things we will do in life.’”

As if these two major commitments weren’t enough, Smith has also found time to join the Rotary Club of Portland, an organization that he said “does very good work.”

In just five short years, this man with a common name, but an uncommon dedica-tion to service, has made an extraordinary impact on the lives of countless people in Portland and beyond.

Oringa was recently reconnected with his mother after not knowing what hap-pened to her for years, although she still remains in Uganda while they continue a difficult immigration struggle to bring her to the United States.

Before immigrating, Oringa attended Saint Bakhita, which started out as a nurs-ery school and has since grown to include education through sixth grade for more than 500 students with the help of Schools for Refugees.

Roscoe was Oringa’s mentor through high school and saw him accepted to the University of New England as a Mitchell

Scholar; he graduated last year with a pre-med degree. He is now a U.S. citizen and works at Maine Medical Center. He plans to apply for graduate or medical school in the near future, Oringa said.

“He’s really almost become a member of our family,” Roscoe said. “It was a great match. Many matches don’t work and many kids don’t have the sense of com-mitment he has.”

Through their relationship, the pair, along Roscoe’s wife and adult son, started the Schools for Refugees, which not only raises money, but also provides business advice to primary schools of refugee families in Africa.

“That school right now is helping a lot of students down there and helping a lot of refugees,” Oringa said. “They are do-

ing much better than when we started the Schools for Refugees program. I’m happy that the young students that are there are getting the help that they need.”

Education for the refugees is not free in Uganda and few families can afford the cost of tuition, he said.

The entire school can be run for what is roughly one student’s annual tuition at North Yarmouth Academy, about $20,000. One student’s annual tuition at Saint Bakhita is just $175, Roscoe said.

Schools for Refugees hopes to expand their reach to help the students after primary school, on into the high school, Roscoe said.

Last year, students and their families at Harrison raised $1,000 for Schools for Refugees, which helped them buy materi-als to build desks for their school building.

The next batch of letters from Uganda will be sent in the next few days, Roscoe said.

Letters sent to Harrison Middle School seventh-graders from students attending Saint Bakhita primary school in a Ugandan refugee camp. Harrison Middle School is partnering with Schools for Refugees, a nonprofit promoting education for refugee communities in Africa, as part of a pen-pal relationship between the two schools.
