Maine Policy Scholars Class Of 2014-2015 Announced
The Maine Community Foundation has
announced the Maine
Policy Scholars 20142015 class. One student
from each campus of
the University of Maine
system has been selected to pursue a year-long
program of applied research in the area of
Maine public policy.
The scholars are Andrew Radford, University of Maine, Augusta; Charles Young,
University of Maine,
Farmington;
Victoria Boone, University
of Maine, Machias;
Kasandra Foster, University of Maine, Presque Isle; Kari Beaulieu, University of
Southern Maine; Alexandra Courtney, University of Maine, Orono; and Travis Powers,
University of Maine,
Fort Kent.
This year, the seven
policy scholars traveled
to Washington, D.C., as
part of their orientation.
They met with Senators
Angus King and Susan
Collins; went on a tour
of the senate with Democratic Secretary Gary
Myrick, a Guilford native and UMaine graduate; and interviewed
policy experts.
During the academic
year, the scholars work
with faculty advisors
to research a policy issue facing Maine. They
produce a report, in
the form of a memo to
Maine’s governor or
appropriate policymaker, which outlines the
issue and offers policy
solutions. On May 1,
the scholars will present their reports to a
panel of policymakers.

So Close
John McDonald
No one from Maine
has ever been elected
president of the United
States. James G. Blaine,
one of Maine’s most
famous and successful
politicians, came closest.
Our western neighbor
New Hampshire gave the
country President Franklin Pierce, but many historians consider him one
of our worst. I’d rather
not claim any than have
to claim Pierce.
Although he hated to
admit it, James G. Blaine
was actually “from
away.” He was born in
1830 in the sleepy little
town of West Brownsville,
Pennsylvania,
coming to Maine in 1854
when he was hired as editor of the Kennebec Journal in Augusta. Later, in
what some would call a
step up and others would
consider a step down
he moved to Portland
to become editor of the
Portland Advertiser. In
1859 Blaine was elected
to the Maine House of
Fall
Representatives, where
he served three years, the
last as Speaker. He then
moved on to the U.S.
Congress as Maine’s
representative. He did
so well as Speaker of
the Maine House that his
colleagues in Congress
elected him Speaker
there as well.
Wanting a better job,
Blaine resigned from
Congress in 1876 and
ran unsuccessfully for
the Republican nomination for president. He ran
for the same nomination
four years later and lost
again. Third time being
the charm – at least for
the presidential nomination – Blaine became the
Republican candidate for
President in 1884, but
managed to lose the election, anyway, to Grover
Cleveland.
But he came sooo
close. How close?
Well, he lost New York
State, and thereby the
election, by about one
thousand votes.
Many people, including Blaine, thought he
lost because of inflammatory remarks made in
New York on the eve of
the election by Reverend
Samuel D. Burchard,
supposedly on Blaine’s
behalf. In a fiery speech
Rev. Burchard referred
to the opposing party –
the Democrats – as the
party of “… Rum, Romanism and Rebellion!”
Blaine sat there on the
podium, powerless to do
anything
As expected, the emotional speech got lots of
people all riled up. And
remember, this all occurred well before talk
radio, iPhones, facebook, twitter and texting.
The reverend’s words
spread like wildfire
throughout New York’s
immigrant population,
offending many Irish
Catholics in the process.
In the remaining hours of
the campaign, Blaine reminded New York voters
that his own mother was
a Catholic, but it was not
enough. Too much damage had been done by the
reverend’s remarks and
Blaine lost the election.
The campaign between
Blaine and Cleveland became famous for two silly campaign slogans, one
aimed at each candidate.
I know. What campaign
slogans aren’t silly?
Cleveland supporters
often chanted, “James G.
SAVINGSContinue at Dave’s
Blaine, James G. Blaine,
the continental liar from
the State of Maine.”
While Blaine supporters, after discovering
that Cleveland fathered
a child out of wedlock,
chanted,
“Ma,
Ma,
where’s my pa?”
After Cleveland won
the election, the ending
of the chant became,
“Gone to the White
House, ha,ha,ha.”Don’t
you wish our politics
still had such wholesome
scandals?
I suppose Longfellow
could have written better
slogans, but, as far as we
know, he never offered
his services to either candidaten.

Maine Deer Season Outlook
V. Paul Reynolds
Contrary to a recent
press release issued by
the Maine Department
of Inland Fisheres and
Wildlife, Maine’s 2014
firearms season for deer
kicks off with a Maine
residents only opening
day November 1st, not
November 2nd. Starting
the following Monday,
November
3rd,
the
deer season is open to
all licensed big game
hunters. ( If you wait until
MDIF&W’s announced
start date of November
4th you will have missed
opening day).
What’s the Maine deer
season outlook?
Pretty darn good if you
combine the statistics,
the
deer
biologist’s
forecast and the so-called
“anecdotal evidence.”
According
to
the
harvest data and all the
buzz there has been a
definite rebound of deer
numbers following the
severe winters of 2008
and 2009.
Kyle Ravana, Maine’s
deer biologist, estimates
that if normal hunting
conditions and hunter
effort prevail, this year’s
dear kill will be in the
25,750 range, nearly a 20
percent increase from last
year’s kill. The total deer
kill for the last ten years is
as follows: 2012 – 21,553;
2011 – 18,839; 2010 –
20,063; 2009 – 18,092;
2008 – 21,062; 2007 –
28,885; 2006 – 29,918;
2005 – 28,148; 2004 –
30,926; 2003 – 30,313.
According to Ravana,
harvest trends support the
fact that the population
has rebounded.
Ravana says, “Last
year, WMD 3 in Eastern
Aroostook County had
its highest buck harvest
ever, and WMD 6, while
not a historical high, had
one of its highest buck
harvests ever. As a result
of the increasing deer
population in WMDs 3
and 6, the department
issued any-deer permits
in these WMDs 3 and 6
for 2013. Hunter surveys
also show that hunters are
seeing more deer.”
“Most telling is the
annual buck kill, an index
used by the department
to note trends in the
population. Maine’s buck
kill has increased each
of the past four years.
Last year’s buck harvest
increased 23% from the
previous year. In much
of the state, the buck kill
exceeded the 10-year
average, another sign
the deer population has
rebounded.”
The deer recovery is
attributted to a number of
factors: first and foremost,
consecutively
mild
winters, “focused predator
control” (dead coyotes),
and better protection of
deer wintering areas.
In general, outdoor
people are reporting deer
sightings from one end of
the state to the other. This
has not been the case for
too long. Deer hunters are
pumped.
Most exciting of all,
perhaps, are some nearrecord buck harvests last
fall in the big woods of far
northern Maine.
This trend, combined
with the likely survival
of Maine’s traditional
bear hunt, can only help
Maine’s
hard-pressed
rural economy. It will take
time to bring back many
non-resident deer hunters
Belgrade Lakes Marine & Storage
Inc. is Expanding
If you have seen the
large new building going up just before the
Belgrade
Regional
Health Center, it is the
latest expansion of Belgrade Lakes Marine
& Storage (BLM&S)
(www.belgradelakesmarine.com) (207-4952378) at 366 Augusta
Road (Route 27) Belgrade.
Demand for affordable covered boat, automobile, travel trailer,
and RV (recreational vehicle) storage has filled
BLM&S to capacity the
last several years resulting in the need for
further expansion to
continue to service customers.
With the completion
of the latest building,
BLM&S will have three
buildings offering over
21,000 sq/ft of covered
storage (Note – 9,000
sq/ft is down Farnham
Road and not visible
from the highway). Joan
and Dick MacKenzie
of Day’s Real Estate
have been critical to
the growing success of
the business over the
last several years. Construction of the building by Lajoie Brothers

Hammond Lumber has
provided the materials.
The new building is 60
X 160 (9,600 sq/ft) feet
with four large overhead
doors 14 feet tall and 20
feet wide to accommodate the largest RVs and
longest travel trailers.
Electrical and alarm
service is available in the
new building and will
better serve owners who
require their vehicles to
trickle charge the battery during the winter.
All buildings are fully
enclosed with concrete
floors and storage rates
range from $24/foot for
10 months to $29/foot
for the larger vehicles
and those requiring
electrical connections.
Storing a typical 16 foot
boat, protected from
the damaging winter
weather and sun damage, typically only costs
about $40 a month and
is priced competitively
with the less desirable
shrink wrapping offered
by others.
Since 1999, the owners have seen a greater
demand for storage
of automobiles, travel
trailers, and RV’s in addition to the expected
boats and pontoons.
Many returning custom-
ers from Maine and the
New England States, as
well as Florida, California, and Arizona
and other states have
filled the existing facilities. Storing a boat, car,
travel trailer, or RV for
summer use – protected
from winter snow loads
and ice damage and the
sun obviously makes
sense for many folks.
Recently, the owners,
Tom and Dianne Dowd,
moved from Massachusetts to devote more
time in “semi-retirement” to their property
in Belgrade and devote
more time to the expanding business. Tom
had inherited an 180acre farm in 1966 and
has tried to preserve the
property, but at the same
time looked for ways for
it to pay its way. Even in
1966, boat storage was
being provided in the
original barn.
In addition, their
first grandchild to their
daughter and son-inlaw, who also live in
Belgrade, prompted the
move.

storage can be directed

Volunteer Drivers Needed
Getting to and from
medical treatments is one
of the greatest concerns
cancer patients face during treatment. To ensure patients get to those
much-needed treatments,
the American Cancer Society provides free rides
through its Road To Recovery® program.
The Society is currently looking for volunteer
drivers in Maine so that
all patients have transportation when they need
it. An estimated 9,270
Maine residents will learn
that they have cancer this
year; however getting to
their scheduled treatment
may be a challenge.
“One cancer patient requiring radiation therapy
could need anywhere
from 20 to 30 trips to
treatment in six weeks,”
said Elisa Madore, Mission Delivery Specialist
for the American Cancer Society. “A patient
receiving chemotherapy
might report for treatment
weekly for up to a year. In
many cases, a patient is
driven to hospitals or clinics by relatives or friends,
but even these patients
must occasionally seek
alternative transportation.
That’s where the Road To
Recovery program comes
in.”
“The program not only
helps patients, but is also
rewarding for the volunteer. Several of our drivers have volunteered for
a number of years,” added
Madore.
For additional information about the Road
To Recovery program or
to volunteer, call 1-800ACS-2345 or visit cancer.

About the American
Cancer Society.
The American Cancer
Society is a global grassroots force of more than
three million volunteers
saving lives and fighting
for every birthday threat-
ened by every cancer in
every community. As the
largest voluntary health
organization, the Society’s efforts have contributed to a 20 percent decline in cancer death rates
in the U.S. since 1991,
and a 50 percent drop in
smoking rates. Thanks in
part to our progress nearly 14 million Americans
who have had cancer and
countless more who have
avoided it will celebrate
more birthdays this year.
We’re finding cures as the
nation’s largest private,
not-for-profit investor in
cancer research, ensuring
people facing cancer have
the help they need and
continuing the fight for
access to quality health
care, lifesaving screenings, clean air, and more.
For more information,
to get help, or to join the
fight, call us anytime, day
or night, at 1-800-2272345 or visit cancer.org/

Lewiston Seeking Annual
Christmas Tree for Festivities
With planning for the
8th Annual Twin Cities Holiday Celebration
underway, the City of
Lewiston is seeking the
donation of a tree for the
December 3rd Parade of
Lights and holiday festivities; the location for siting
in Lewiston is still being
considered.
City Arborist Steve
Murch is seeking a Spruce
tree that is 35’-45’ tall
with a “good full shape
and single stem.” The tree
needs to be easily accessible, i.e., not growing
into power lines and not
in a backyard, and it also
needs to be located within
the City of Lewiston.
If interested in donating such a tree, residents
may contact City Arborist Steve Murch at 513-
3003, X3443; TTY/TDD:
513-3007 or via smurch@
lewistonmaine.gov. The
City Arborist will inspect
suggested trees, and by
mid-November, the owner
of the selected tree will be
notified. In addition, the
City will return to the donating resident’s property
in the spring to grind the
stump and loam/seed the
area. n

Exercises to Flatten Your Stomach
flattening your stomach
they are great for your
entire core strength and a
healthy back.
Just do each exercise
every other day, 3 sets of
12 repetitions, and feel
your core tighten, see
your stomach flatten and
improve your posture.
The best thing about these
movements is that you can
do them all standing. No
floor mats or heavy equipment needed and you can
actually sneak a few in
while you are at work.
Give these a try:
Jodi Cornelio

and Motivational Speaker

Listed below are five
exercises you can do
anywhere to flatten your
stomach. Not only are
these exercises good for
1. Slow motion front
kick: Stand with straight
posture, lift right knee
belly button height then
extend your leg out
straight, draw it back in
and toe touch the floor to
the starting position. Repeat 12 times. Repeat on
the opposite leg.
2. Side Bends with or
without weights: Heavy
weights are not necessary if you are trying to
thin the waist line. The
exercise is exactly how
it sounds. Just point your
index finger to your baby
toe and bend side to side.
The more the better. Try to
do 100 side to side.
3. Torso twist with
weight: This exercise is
very affective with a light
to moderate hands weight.
Hold one dumbbell with
both hand straight out in
front of you, chest high
with straight arms. Rotate
to the left and then rotate
to the right. Leave hips
stationary and only twist
at the waist as the upper
body follows.
4. Overhead side chop
knee pull: No weight
needed but you can add
weight if you need a little
more. With hands over
head at a left side angle
bring your opposite knee
into your chest to meet
your arms and repeat up
and down 12 times on
each side.
5. Cross over extensions
with weight. Use light to
moderate weight. Reach
for the sky to your left and
then reach for the floor
to your right extending
the body with each reach.
Squat and bend the knees
when reaching to the floor
to protect the back. This
works the oblique on each
side of your waist and
also works the abdominal
muscles that cross your
midsection. Repeat 12
times of each side.
One could easily whip
through these simple exercises in 15 to 20 minutes.
Remember to always consult your physician before
performing any new exercise program especially if
you have a specific medical condition.
Live Long, Live Well. n

All Across America
The Unite States of America is the land that I love and call home.
So I proudly pledge my allegiance to our flag.
What’s more, I do affirm:
All across America I love to see out Country’s flag
flying in the breeze.
It makes me think of freedom and our homeland’s liberties.
I love to see a gleaming white, flagpole tall and true,
that under God, for peace unfurls
our flag’s red, white, and blue.
I love to see the Stars and Stripes
streaming from that pole
the spirit of America, -- our Country’s Honor Roll.

Aloft a quiet, village green, hill, or sparkling lake
our flag lifts high my eyes and heart
and resolve for our children’s sake.
From coast to coast Old Glory stands
free our land to keep!
In gratitude I tribute give to our brave in honored sleep.
Thanks to their deeds, our flag waves on
steadfast in the breeze,
inspiring us, reminding us of our precious liberties.

Critter Chatter: Foxes and Helpful Folks
Carleen Cote
Foxes present the fewest health issues. Nevertheless, they are not
immune to mange, their
biggest problem. Mange
is caused by a mite that
burrows under the skin.
The excreted mites' waste
causes the itch. The fox
scratches until open
wounds occur. These become infected and crusty
and their hair falls out.
If this happens in cold
weather, the fox will die
from hypothermia. The
mites survive by sucking blood which causes
anemia and may lead to
death.
As with most wildlife,
foxes might have other
internal parasites, such as
round worm, hook worm
and lung worm. The stress
of captivity apparently
cause these parasites to
multiply and cause health
issues. External parasites
include lice, ticks and
fleas. These are treatable.
Rabies in foxes has
not been a problem for
many years. However in
southern Maine, three aggressive grey foxes that
attacked humans tested
positive for this virus.
This year, 22 young foxes
arrived at the Center in
need of care. This is the
most we have ever received in one year. Many
calls came in about foxes
hanging out around homes
and on golf courses. With
the explosion of fox families and the loss of habitat, inevitably some virus
will affect this animal,
as it has with raccoons,
skunks, woodchucks and
bats.
Most folks who offer
to volunteer at the Center want to work with the
animals, until they learn
about the required vaccinations, but this summer two people called
to volunteer who had no
interest in working with
animals.
We happily welcomed
Gerard, from Augusta,
who said he'd do any
work that needed doing.
True to his word, he raked
lawns, weeded and cared
for flower beds, cleaned
out a building in which
we'd raised chickens for
the storage of food and
equipment, and washed
tubs and kennels used for
the wildlife. If there was
a job to be done, he was
willing. When the school
year started, we bid Gerard farewell as he returned to his paying job.
Thank you, Gerard, for all
your assistance this summer!
Brenda, from Waterville,
initially wanted to work
with the animals, but
stayed with us anyway.
Joining us on Saturdays
(she works at her job four
days a week), she did the
dirty work of scrubbing
and sanitizing the raccoon
water dishes and food
trays, and washing containers used to transport
A fox pup at the Duck Pond Wildlife Care Center. Contributed photo.
the animals, taking care
of anything that was dirty
and needed cleaning. Like
Gerard, Brenda did it all
these tasks without ever
a murmur of complaint.
Thank you, Brenda!
We also want to thank
Bob, who has mowed the
lawns at the Center for
many years. His pay is a
large bag of dog food and
biscuits for his animals!
Our lawns would become hay fields without
his help! We continue to
count our blessings.

The Healthy Geezer
By: Fred Cecitti
Q. Do people who are
color blind see everything in black and white?
“Color blindness” is
the common term used
to describe color vision
deficiency. The term is
misleading, because total
Another year is winding its way down and low
and behold, Medicare
Open Enrollment is right
around the corner. With
all the priorities we have
day to day, it is easy to
forget that there is an incredible opportunity each
year with Medicare Open
Enrollment. If you are like
the average senior here in
Maine, you are likely receiving a daily mailbox
full of advertisements trying to sway you to change
to a new Medicare Plan.
While the insurance carriers may think it’s an easy
decision to make a change,
it’s not that easy.
Doing the paperwork for
a Medicare Supplement or
Medicare Advantage Plan
may be a relatively easy
process but it’s not always
easy to sort through the
pile of options available
from year to year. Maine
has historically not had
that many options available, but in 2015 more
companies have come to
the state to offer a greater
selection of benefits, lower
premiums, and co-pays.
color blindness that turns
the world into shades of
gray is rare.
The most common type
of color blindness makes
it difficult for people to
discriminate
between
red and green. The next
most common form of
the deficiency affects the
perception of blues and
yellows. Those with blueyellow blindness almost
always have red-green
blindness, too.
Many people with color
blindness don’t know they
have it. For example, they
are taught at an early age
that grass is green. They
look at lawns and see yellow grass. Subsequently,
if you ask them what color the grass is, they will
tell you it’s green.
(Please don’t ask me
how they handle shopping for bananas.)
Color blindness affects
about ten percent of men,
but only one percent of
women. Most people with
color blindness inherited
it. There is no treatment
to correct inherited color blindness. However,
there are specially tinted
eyeglasses that can help
people with deficiencies
to discriminate between
colors.
Another cause of color
blindness is simple aging,
which gradually diminishes our ability to see
colors.
Diseases can affect your
color vision, too. Usually,
diseases affect the perception of blue and yellow. Some conditions that
can cause color blindness
are diabetes, glaucoma,
cataracts, macular degeneration, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease,
leukemia and sickle cell
anemia.
Some drugs can alter
color perception, too.
These include drugs for
heart problems, high
blood pressure, rheumatoid arthritis, nervous
disorders and psychological problems.
Exposure to certain
chemicals can cause color
blindness. These include
carbon disulfide, fertilizers, styrene and mercury.
The eye is like a camera. There’s a lens in the
front that focuses images
on the retina in the back.
The retina contains nerve
cells that react to light
and transmit information to your brain. If the
cells responsible for color
don’t work properly, you
suffer from color blindness.
If you think you are
having a color-vision
problem, see an eye doctor. You’ll be asked to
look at a book containing several multicolored
dot patterns. If you have
a color vision deficiency,
you won’t be able to pick
out numbers and shapes
from within the dot patterns.
If you would like to ask
a question, write to fred@
healthygeezer.com. n
While we all want more
options and expanded benefits, we are not always
ready to make the change
because what we have may
already work just fine.
Every year is the same,
you open your mailbox or
grab the stack of pamphlets
and flyers off the counter
and you sit down to sort
through the mess. Marketing companies spend billions to get your attention,
and a full mailbox of shiny
brochures may do just that.
Some of these flyers really
stand out, and some may
not, of course it’s not until
you read them do you see
the subtle differences that
most plans offer. Many of
those plans really are comparable, but everyone has
a reason to be on one plan
or another.
Now that you have
sorted through the mess,
tossed out what you
thought wasn’t interesting, you have likely found
a few things that have
peaked your interest. Now
what do you do? This is
the yearly task that most
seniors face and for most
of you, it’s more than
probable that you have
given up and you just
throw all that paper you
get in the mail right in the
circular file. But hold on a
minute, because doing the
status quo for this year’s
Open Enrollment may
not be the best choice and
maybe, just maybe 2015 is
the year for a change.
Here’s what you need to
know:
·More companies available in more counties in
2015
·Expanded Medical networks
· Premium Changes
Ok, so now that you
know some of the highlights, the real question is
what those companies are
and what are the details of
those new benefits? While
it’s not appropriate to go
into details here, there are
ways to sort through the
mish mash of options and
get right to the answers.
Here is a short list of items
to consider when doing
your Medicare Plan review.
·Premium: Does my
current premium fit my
budget? Are there other
options?
·Co-pays: Does my current plan offer the best and
lowest possible co-pays?
· Doctor/Specialist Network: Do I have a large
network of Specialists and
doctors to choose from?
·Additional
Benefits:
Are there any additional
benefits that a new plan
may offer?
While the list above is
not a comprehensive list, it
certainly is the best place
to start for most seniors
to considering while contemplating a change. Now
I’m sure It’s entirely possible that as you read this
you be asking yourself;
Why do I need to change
at all? Well I submit for
your consideration that to
ignore the changes in the
market for 2015 may just
be a lost opportunity. If
you really feel paralyzed
and fearful that change is
dangerous, I suggest that
you find an expert to help
you sort through the piles
of options and make sure
that a solid and meaningful
Open Enrollment benefits
checkup is done. There is
a dearth of competent Insurance Agents out there
that specialize in the senior market; they spend
countless hours training to
remain on top of the newest options available. Find
a qualified agent, and take
advantage of the changes
for 2015! n

Kennebec Historical Society’s November Program:
The Blaine House
in Augusta is one of
Maine’s most notable
homes. In 1862, three
decades after the house
was built by Capt. James
Hall in the early 1830s,
James and Harriet Blaine
moved in. The home
became the setting for
one of the most meteoric
careers in American
politics, during which
James Blaine served as
Speaker of the US House
of Representatives, US
senator, secretary of
state, and Republican
candidate for president in
1884. After the deaths of
her parents, the Blaines’
daughter Harriet Blaine
Beale gave the house to
the state in 1919. Since
1920, it has served as the
official residence of the
state’s governors and their
families. As a symbol of
“The Blaine House”
state government, it ranks
with the Maine State
House. The house has
been a National Historic
Landmark since 1964.
Architecturally, it reflects
a combination of Federal,
Victorian, and Colonial
Revival styles. Today, the
Blaine House functions
as a social showcase for
Maine, a working office,
and family living quarters.
A native of Portland,
Earle G. Shettleworth, Jr.,
attended Deering High
School, Colby College,
and Boston University
and was the recipient
of honorary doctorates
from Bowdoin College
and the Maine College
of Art. In 1971 he was
appointed by Governor
Curtis to serve on the

Nothin’ But Small Talk…Horses Helping Soldiers
Jess Small
This month we pay tribute to those military personnel who have served
our country. They have
fought for our freedom
and put their lives on the
line to ensure our safety.
Now they are home and
we need to make sure they
know our appreciation
and are taken care of.
For decades horses have
carried soldiers bravely
into war, carried cannons
and ammunition for the
artillerymen, pulled wagons full of supplies for the
all military, and carried
the American flag proudly
head on into battle. Today
horses are helping wounded soldiers on the road to
recover from their physical and emotional injuries,
as well as help them to adjust back into civilian life.
When you are in the
presence of a horse you
feel a rush of emotions
– strength, focus, energy, awe, and just overwhelmed with their beauty and power. Scientists
and therapists have recognized these complex emotions and the quick bond
between humans and
horses and have begun to
use them for many therapeutic purposes. Horses
are smart and perceptive
animals. Each horse has
its own personality, just
as humans do. Their personality traits are not the
same as human traits, but
they are traits that we as
humans can relate to and
that is what helps seal the
bond between our species.
Horses can help facilitate healing because they
have a natural ability to
know what a person needs
to heal, whether it is an
emotional block, a bad repetitive behavior, or even
a physical problem.
Equine assisted therapy
program are becoming
more and more popular all
over the cover. More farm
and programs are opening their doors every year.
Many of them are now focusing on post traumatic
stress disorder (PTSD).
Horses and soldiers are
a lot alike. They are both
hard wired to stay alert,
aware, and ready for danger at all times, as a soldier in a combat zone or
in hostile territory has to
be. Horses are also able to
calm themselves quickly,
as a soldier is trained to do
as well.
In most equine assisted
therapy programs, horses
are teamed with mental
health professionals and
an equine professional
to address the issues that
each veteran is facing
when they return home.
On the ground activities
with horses are also used
to mimic real live issues
and combat zones. This
allows the therapist to see
were the problems are and
then are able to help them
to find solutions. The participants quickly learn
and recognize unhealthy
behaviors, acknowledge
their strengths and weaknesses and work to incorporate new healthy behaviors.
Horses are also used
to help wounded soldiers
heal their physical ali-

Rob Foley (shown here), a retired Navy Seal, helped to get the Equine Assisted
Therapy for Veterans program started at Equine Journeys in Bridgton, Maine. Equine
Journeys started 7 years ago with providing therapeutic riding and driving, mostly
with developmentally delayed adults. 3 years ago they were able to start their veterans
program. They have a licensed therapist and psychiatric nurse who, along with
Therapeutic driving and riding instructors, form the therapy team. Equine Journeys
has been seeing veterans at no charge to them. They seek out veterans with Post
Traumatic Stress Disorder, Traumatic Brain Injury, or Military Sexual Trauma.

“Food for Thought” Luncheon
Retired Maine Game
Warden John Ford Sr.,
pictured at left, and retired Maine State Trooper
Mark Nickerson are on
tour in the great state of
Maine in response to repeated requests for their
“Blue Lights and Funny
Cider” Seminar.
They are coming to
USM’s Lewiston Auburn
Senior College campus
on Friday, November 14
at the popular Food for
Thought 11:30 luncheon.
The public is cordially invited to join us.
John Ford Sr., a native
Mainer, comes from a
long line of Maine Game
Wardens. His mother rehabilitated wildlife and
rescued Susie and raised
her to full grown as depicted in the picture. (The
coon will not be on tour.)
John was sworn into
the Maine Warden Service shortly after finishing
up a four-year stint in the
U.S. Air Force. He spent
his 20 year warden career
in Waldo County. Upon
his retirement in 1990,
he was elected as county
sheriff and re-elected in
1994.
John has written a local
newspaper column and is
a regular contributor to
the Northwoods Sporting
Journal and has two books
under his belt, “Suddenly
The Cider Didn’t Taste So
Good” and “The Cider
Still Tastes Funny.” He
also is an artist known
for his wildlife artwork.
He lives with his wife in
Brooks, Maine.
Mark Nickerson originally studied to become
a dentist, but the lure of
police work was enticing
so he followed in the footsteps of his father, Millard
E. Nickerson, who was
Director of the Bureau of
Criminal Investigations
of the Maine State Police.
Mark joined the Maine
State Police in 1977,
graduating that year from
the 34th Maine Criminal
Justice Academy.
He first served in Troop
C- Skowhegan and later
in Troop D-Thomaston
during his 28-year career
with the Maine State Police. After retiring, Mark
wrote columns about police work for “The Citizen” in Belfast and later
for the “Knox County
Republican.” His stories
were later compiled into
his book “Blue Lights in
the Night.”
Ford and Nickerson regale audiences in Maine
and beyond with their
hilarious stories of law
enforcement “back in
the day” based on stories
from their best-selling
books. They have taken
their show on the road and
are on Tour throughout
the Great State of Maine
and leaving the folks behind rolling inthe aisles!
Senior College, now in
its 17th year, presents the

Magical, Mystical
Moments
(Is that you God?)
I stopped writing “todo” lists many years
ago when I found myself getting frustrated
that the list was longer
than the day. Never
able to get all of my
list accomplished was
causing me to be angry,
so I simply stopped
writing lists. What gets
done, gets done, everything else will still be
there tomorrow. It is
a fairly good philosophy, but I still find that
I keep a list in my head
and
subconsciously
check off things as they
are finished.
Some days I wake up
and feel like I will never get to do the things
I want to do, because
I am always trying
to do the things I am
supposed to do. Occasionally, I wake up
exhausted from doing
too much the previous
day, yet when I look
at what I did, nothing
has been checked off
from my list (the one
that I don’t write down
anymore). It’s like running on a treadmill,
you exercise your body
but you don’t get anywhere. Running around
and doing things, yet
feeling like nothing got
done.
Then I look a little bit
closer at what I did accomplish. I met some
people who needed a
sympathetic ear to listen, so I listened. I was
thinking about a friend
I haven’t heard from
in a long while, so I
sent an e-mail. I baked
my husband’s favorite
cookies and got to see
his eyes light up like
a little boy. I wrote a
sympathy card and a
note to a close family friend who had lost
a loved one. When I
think about it, I am so
glad I stopped writing
lists.

Aruba: An Inviting Winter Getaway
Most people visit Aruba for its white sand beaches.
Aruba has a variety of landscapes, including cactus.
By Victor Block
Photos courtesy of
Len Kaufman
A gleaming white sand
beach that rims the azure
sea is set off by an explosion of scarlet, purple and
other vivid colors of lush
tropical foliage. Nearby,
stretches of rocks and pebbly soil interspersed with
cactus comprise a very different terrain. The variety
of landscapes found on
Aruba is echoed by the diversity of its attractions.
The island’s stretches
taken apart, shipped to Aruba and reassembled in its
unlikely Caribbean setting,
where it has housed several
restaurants and night clubs.
Most people visit Aruba
for its beaches. A sevenmile stretch backs up to
high-rise hotels that rim
the sheltered southwestern
and western coastline. The
windswept northern and
eastern coasts, which are
battered by the sea, have
been left largely undeveloped.
Rugged limestone cliffs
of white sand beaches are
among the most beautiful
in the Caribbean. Touches
of European charm add to
its appeals.
The Dutch took control
of Aruba in 1636 and have
held sway over it since
then, except for a short period in the early 19th century. Reminders of this Dutch
heritage are everywhere.
One distinctive landmark
is a windmill built in 1804
that once drained water
from low-lying areas of
Holland. In 1960, it was

run along much of the
northeastern
coastline.
They mark one boundary
of Arikok National Park,
an ecological preserve that
sprawls over nearly 20% of
the island.
Intriguing chapters of
Aruba’s history come alive
in this setting. Shallow
caves recall a time when
Arawak Indians inhabited
the island. Drawings that
ornament walls and ceilings attest to their presence.
Reminders of Aruba’s
agricultural past in the park
include a long-deserted
adobe farm house, while
abandoned mines recall a
mini-gold rush that got underway in 1825 and lasted
for nearly a century.
Speaking of gold, 12
casinos have earned Aruba the nickname of “Las
Vegas of the Caribbean.”
While most are located in
resort hotels, two are in
Oranjestad, the capital city.
Oranjestad also has other
attractions. The Dutch colonial architecture of many
buildings, some dating
back to the late 18th century, comes in a variety of
pastel colors. The busy port
teems with boats, and sidewalks with crowds of sightseers and shoppers.

money on shopping or
gambling, visitors have a

interesting museums. The
Archaeological Museum is
housed in a cluster of colorfully painted homes that
were built around 1870.
Exhibits showcase the history of Indians on Aruba.
They range from an ancient
long house and native hut
to artifacts dating back as
far as 2500 BC.
The Historical Museum
of Aruba is housed in Fort
Zoutman. That fortification
was built in 1796-1798 to
protect the island from pirates.
The museum has displays about farming, fishing and other aspects of
island life, including interesting tidbits about villages
I had explored. For example, Noord began as an
Indian community, while
Rancho was established
as a fishing village around
1855.
Stops at other towns also
provide introductions to
what locals call “the real
Aruba.” San Nicolas once
jumped to the beat of workers at the now-abandoned
nearby oil refinery, but it’s
on the quiet side these days.
A mini-promenade along
the main street is lined by
shops and restaurants, but
the biggest draw in town
is Charlie’s Bar. Beginning
in the early 1940s, scuba
divers who dropped by attached their underwater
finds to the walls and ceiling, creating what today is
a bric-a-brac heaven. Virtually every inch of available
space is adorned with automobile license plates, paper
money and business cards
from around the world, and
other mementoes too varied and numerous to list.
The main claim to fame
of Paradera village is its location close to two intriguing sites that were sacred
places to Indians. The Ayo
and Casibari rock formations consist of huge boulders that rise up from the
desert terrain. Over time,
prevailing winds have
carved the rocks into unusual shapes which, with a
little imagination, resemble
birds and dragons.
Steps have been carved
into the rock at Casibari
and those who climb to
the top enjoy a panoramic
view of the island. Some of
the stones at Ayo still bear
petroglyphs scratched and
painted onto the surface by
Indian artists.
Those boulders rising
from a flat, stark landscape
provide a setting very different from the white sand
beaches of Aruba. Both
are among the somethingfor-everyone variety that
makes the island an inviting winter getaway destination.
