Beach to Beacon promises to be memorablePage 15
Willard Beach among 10 dirtiest in the state in 2009By Randy Billings
SOUTH PORTLAND — Temperatures were in the upper 80s on Wednesday afternoon, as more than 100 people sunned themselves at Willard Beach.
A few brave souls plunged head-first into the ocean to es-cape the oppressive humidity, while dozens more waded knee deep along the shoreline.
When asked about the water, swimmers said it was cold, chilly and refreshing.
But dirty?

Babine resigns from Scarborough CouncilBy Emily Parkhurst
SCARBOROUGH — Town Councilor Shawn Babine an-nounced his resignation, citing educational pursuits and an interim job as chief executive of-ficer of the national Tau Kappa Epsilon Fraternity as the main reasons for his departure.
“I find the constraints of my studies and my interim assign-ment requiring me to focus less on town matters and as such, feel strongly that the citizens should have the opportunity to elect a committed public servant that will be a strong advocate for the town,” Babine said in a resignation letter received by the

Babine said his new posi-tion with the largest fraternal organization in the world, and the work he is doing on his doc-torate in law and public policy through Northeastern University will both require him to travel frequently.
That was the conclusion of a report issued last week by En-vironment Maine, a statewide, citizen-based environmental advocacy organization.
The report indicated that beaches in the state are getting dirtier. Coastal beach closings and advisories in 2009 increased 47 percent, from 250 to 170 over the previous year.
Eleven percent of all beach water samples exceed the state’s standards for bacteria levels.
Willard Beach, according
to the report, was the only Cumberland County beach to make the Top 10 worst for water quality.
Twenty-one percent of Willard Beach’s 87 water samples were higher than the state standard. The beach, which placed 10th overall, was closed or placed un-der an advisory 23 days in 2009.
The East End Beach in Port-land, meanwhile, was closed or posted an advisory 24 days last
Citizens group sues to protect Eastern TrailBy Emily Parkhurst
SCARBOROUGH — A group of concerned citizens filed a federal lawsuit July 29 to stop government agencies from mak-ing a portion of the Eastern Trail available for private develop-ment.
The complaint in U.S. District Court in Portland lists the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife and Gov. John Baldacci as the defendants.
“Easements have been given
and they’ve not been given correctly,” said Susan DeWitt Wilder, a plaintiff in the case. “Our complaints were ignored and they went into back rooms to make these deals.”
The land, which was pur-chased by the Maine IF&W in 1961, is part of the East Coast Greenway, a system of trails that runs from Florida to Maine. The land was purchased with funds from the Pittman-Robertson

Architect: S. Portland High School costs driven by programs, siteBy Randy Billings
SOUTH PORTLAND — School of-ficials and architects Monday night de-fended a $47.3 million plan to renovate and replace South Portland High School to City Councilors.
The team said the scope and cost of the project are being driven by specific programming needs and challenges with building on the Highland Avenue site, which has been deemed the only feasible location by city planners.
Mayor Tom Coward attempted to lay out some ground rules before the workshop to steer councilors away from questions that would be answered by an independent review currently underway and from questions second-guessing school programming.
“The thrust of this is to gather informa-tion” Coward said. “Basically, everyone is on board with the need for major reno-vations at the high school.”
While the session, which was broadcast on community television, seemed to allay the concerns of some councilors, others remained unconvinced that some of the features of the new school were needs, rather than desires, and questioned the 1,100-student capacity of the new school.
“Wants are what you’d love to have to make it be perfect,” said Councilor Rosemarie De Angelis, an educator of 34 years who went on to use an analogy. “A map is what I need to get to where I want. A GPS would be a great thing to have.”
School Board member Ralph Baxter said that South Portland requires more credit hours to graduate than other schools. South Portland students need 24 credit hours to graduate, whereas Scarborough students only need 21 cred-its and Biddeford only 16.
Those extra credits increase the de-mand for classroom space, especially science labs, which must be equipped with water and gas services.
“This is the kind of building they kind of need to be in to have that stuff,” Baxter said. “They’re doing it now, yes. But we think they will do it better in a building that’s better.”
The current building plan would gut and renovate the oldest portion of the

Night Out Neighborhood Block Party August 3 at the Red Bank Community Center. The event promotes safety in communities across the United States. The South Portland police
and fire departments teamed up with local groups and businesses including Target and Hannaford to put on the event.
building, removing asbestos. Beal Gym and the South Portland Auditorium will be kept, but the so-called annex will be demolished.
Dan Cecil, an architect for Harriman Associates, told councilors that there are about $11.7 million in additional costs for the South Portland project than a typi-cal high school project.
About $6.4 million of that is being driven by the need to replace the annex, the large two-story mostly glass structure running along Mountain View Road.
Another $1.36 million in costs stem from the poor soils and storm-water is-sues of the site, as well as the need to run new electrical and gas utility services to the building.
About $1.5 million has been included so the school can be certified by the U.S. Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design.
Cecil attempted to put the project in perspective of other recent school proj-ects, referring mostly to Biddeford High School, a $34.9 million building cur-rently under construction.
Biddeford’s nearly 249,000 square-foot school, however, is meant to ac-commodate 1,000 students and does not have as much new construction as South Portland.
Meanwhile, Superintendent Suzanne Godin said the proposed South Portland school works out to about 259 square feet per student, while Biddeford’s is planned for 248 square feet per student and Scarborough has 243 square foot per student.
The additional space in the South Port-land plan stems from the need to connect the new construction to Beal Gym, the auditorium and old portion of the school, Godin said.
Other comparisons included the $68 million Mt. Blue High School for 925 students, $57 million Hampden Academy for 800 students, $49.5 million Mt. View High School for 1,100 and $41.8 million Cony High School for 900 students.
Those other projects were completed between 2004 and 2010, Cecil said, and costs have been adjusted to reflect 2011 dollar values to be comparable to South Portland.
De Angelis, however, faulted those comparisons, because they were all state funded, whereas South Portland’s project would be financed only through local tax dollars.

31st annual Art in the Park slated for Aug. 14 in South PortlandBy Randy Billings
SOUTH PORTLAND — When the 31st annual Art in the Park takes place on Satur-day, Aug. 14, in Mill Creek Park, the most prominent piece of art may not be at one of the 185 artists booths.
It’s quite possible the new gazebo com-pleted this week could steal the show.
The $65,000, grant-funded gazebo, designed and installed by the Knightville-based Uncommon Kitchen & Bath, is quite an upgrade from the previous bandstand.
The exterior of the gazebo is eye-catch-ing. The gray cedar shingles around base give way to natural-colored cedar shingles on the roof, which reaches its pinnacle with a copper cupola.
That cupola allows natural light to trickle into the interior, highlighting the deep red
Butterfly effect: Local man follows Monarchs from Maine to MexicoBy Emily Parkhurst
SCARBOROUGH — Harry Pringle will be the first to tell you he’s not a scientist. He just loves Monarch butterflies.
“I noticed they fly differently than other butterflies. It’s a stronger, more purpose-ful flight,” Pringle said, describing the Monarchs that take over his yard on Little Diamond Island every summer.
Pringle was so interested in the flight of these butterflies, that he decided to follow them in their migration, from a small island in Maine, to a gathering place on Cape May in New Jersey, all the way to the high-

altitude forests of Mexico.“It takes three or four generations to do
the migration,” said Pringle.No one butterfly makes it from Maine to
Mexico and then back to Maine. Instead, the trip is done over the course of several life cycles, Pringle explained.

flooring and benches made out of western red cedar. In the middle of the floor, there is a city seal engraved into a granite piece of tile.
Other than the new gazebo, Art in the Park Organizer Mary Kahl said there are no significant changes or additions at this year’s event. Other than the fact that guitar-ist, Peter Albert, will be sitting in for Jim Gallant, who normally plays the event.
“Other than that, things are pretty much the same as they were last year,” Kahl said.
In addition to the art and photography by both professional and student artists, chil-dren will be able to create their own master pieces in the Kids in the Park section, which is open from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Pay-per-bag to be discussed at next workshopBy Amy Anderson
CAPE ELIZABETH — The Town Coun-cil will dedicate a workshop on Monday, Aug. 9 to discuss the preparation of a pay-per-bag trash disposal system in town.
The 7 p.m. council workshop will take place at Town Hall.
Councilors received a memo from Town Manager Mike McGovern including com-parisons of recycling and solid waste data of 11 ecomaine communities since 2006.
The data shows since the 2006-2007 year, Cape Elizabeth has had the largest percent-age decline by weight in municipal solid

waste, and the largest percentage increase by weight in recycled material going into the “silver bullet” recycling Dumpsters.
The council decided at their July 12 workshop to meet Aug. 9 to discuss poten-tial pay-per-bag guidelines. The council is expected to send the pay-per-bag issue to public hearing on Monday, Sept. 13.
At their 7:30 p.m. regular council meet-ing, councilors will continue a discussion on rooster restrictions within residential ar-eas. The issue was referred to the Ordinance

School technology purchase raises questions in S.P.By Randy Billings
SOUTH PORTLAND — The City Council on Monday night approved $236,000 in new technology for the school department.

The technology includes 10 Smart-Boards, an interactive, computerized
South Portland triathlon pushes personal limitsBy Randy Billings
SOUTH PORTLAND — Nearly 1,000 women are registered to take part in the third annual Tri for a Cure on Saturday, Aug. 15.
The majority of them, race director Julie Marchese said, have never participated in a triathlon.
“Each year, 85 percent of our women have never done a triathlon before,” Mar-chese said. “This has taken Maine women off the couch and out to change the health and wellness of themselves.”
The race will begin with a 1/3-mile swim near Spring Point at Southern Maine Community College. Once they reach land, participants will embark on a 15-mile bike ride along Sawyer Road to Cape Elizabeth and back to South Portland along Ocean House Road.
The race concludes with a three-mile run through a course east of Preble Street.
While awards will be given to the top three finishers in 14 different categories, Marchese said the spirit of competition is more inwardly focused.
“(The event) has boosted our overall annual giving, enabling us to award more grants for cancer research,” Rowan said. “It’s great, because we’re really trying to advance cancer research throughout the state.”
Although the number of participants is limited, Rowan said there are no plans in the works to move the event to accommo-date more athletes.
Last year, the group kept a waiting list, but never had the opportunity to use it, be-cause very few athletes dropped out.
Organizers, however, are trying to find more ways to include family members of athletes.
On Saturday, Aug. 14, there will be two events for kids. At 10 a.m. there will be a Kids Fun Run, where children ages 4-10 can race distances varying from 100 yards to a mile.
At 11 a.m. there will be a Youth Aqua/Run, where kids ages 10-15 will swim 100 feet parallel to the shore in waist-deep water and run about a mile to the finish line.
In addition to the support of Southern Maine Community College, Rowan said the event has been embraced by the com-
“It’s about self-accomplishment,” she said. “It’s about how you did it and how it felt. It’s not about what the other women did.”
And Marchese would know. She entered her first triathlon at the age of 45, one year after being diagnosed with breast cancer, just to prove she could do it.
At the time, Marchese said she hadn’t been swimming in four years or biked in about 30 years.
“Five years ago, I couldn’t run a quarter of a mile,” she said.
On Aug. 1, Marchese, now 50, added another feather in her cap: she placed fourth in her age group in her first half Ironman competition in California.
“I just tagged a half a marathon at the end of a 50-mile bike,” she said. “I’m just basking in my glory to know I could ever do that.”
It’s that inner drive to overcome per-ceived limitations that has made the Tri for the Cure such a popular event.
About 100 of the 950 athletes are cancer survivors.
About 150 more athletes are participat-ing than last year. While 800 slots were filled in 26 minutes last year, it took only a fraction of that time this year when regis-tration opened at midnight on Feb. 1: eight minutes.
This is the first year that athletes have had to raise a minimum of $250 to com-pete. As of Tuesday, participants had raised about $500,000 toward the event goal of $650,000.
Fundraising was optional in the previous two years, but that didn’t stop athletes from collecting donations. Last year’s event net-ted $425,000.
Proceeds from the event benefit the Maine Cancer Foundation, a Portland-based nonprofit founded in 1976 to provide re-search grants, education and patient support grants in Maine.
MCF Executive Director Susan Rowan said last year’s triathlon allowed the foun-dation to award eight research grants, total-ling $650,000 – about twice as many as the previous year.

Residents questioned the need for the technology, as well as the price paid for each laptop, while councilors focused on the bidding process.
School Technology Director Andrew Wallace said that SmartBoards have be-come vital instructional tools for some
elementary teachers, while others simply have no interest in them.
Wallace said SmartBoard users claim that the easy manipulability of images helps keep students engaged in classroom learning.
The district will have SmartBoards in about half of the school’s classrooms, Wallace said.

Traffic woes on Broadway in S. Portland to last up to 90 daysBy Randy Billings
SOUTH PORTLAND — There’s good news and bad news for frustrated motorists travelling along Broadway, which once again is a construction zone this summer.
The finishing touches are being applied to a paving project from Anthoine to Lin-coln streets, leaving a smooth black layer of asphalt on a once rocky stretch of road.
But a sewer project from Cash Corner to Wescott Road could take up to 90 days to complete.
Pat Cloutier, director of Water Resource Protection, said the sewer project is part of a $3.85 million upgrade to the Long Creek
By Emily ParkhurstSCARBOROUGH — The Historical
Society will hold its annual fundraiser on Saturday, August 7 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Historical Society Museum on Route 1 near Fire Station 6.
The flea market will feature antiques and collectibles, books, clothing and jewelry, all collected and donated in the past two months.
“One woman is moving out of her huge house and donated a lot of antiques,” said Cheryl Profenno, a Historical Society Board member.
There will also be baked goods, jams and jellies for sale inside the museum.
The Freemasons, whose building is next door, will also be hosting a flea market fundraiser at the same time. The combina-tion of the two events is likely to draw a crowd.
The flea market and bake sale is the larg-est fundraiser for the Historical Society’s educational programming, which benefits all Scarborough school children.

Back Cove garden sets a chem-free standardBy Randy Billings
PORTLAND — On about 2 1/2 acres of land between Back Cove and Interstate 295, a garden full of flowers, shrubs and trees is gradually taking shape.
But the project is more than about adding beauty to the heavily used Back Cove Trail. It’s proof that healthy landscaping can be achieved without using harmful chemicals and fertilizers.
The garden, where construction began four years ago, is expected to be completed next summer. It will include panels describ-ing the plants and flowers, so visitors can replicate what they like.
The project is a demonstration site for a statewide effort to encourage eco-friendly landscaping. The state Department of Pesticides and Disease Control calls it the Yardscaping program, while the Friends of Casco Bay call it Bayscaping.
But the goals of the two are the same: reduce the use of toxic fertilizers and pes-ticides.
Right, Mary Cerullo, associate director of the Friends of Casco Bay, points out landscaping
along Portland’s Back Cove that doesn’t require heavy maintenance or chemical
pesticides and fertilizers. Randy Billings / The FoRecasTeR
Gary Fish, manager of the DPDC’s Pesticides Program, said that, while the Yardscaping program has been around for about 10 years, interest in the program has recently increased dramatically.
“In the last two years it has really taken off,” he said. “We have found there is a lot of demand. Being green itself has become more fashionable.”
Fish said there are about 2,000 differ-ent native and non-native plantings on the Back Cove demonstration site, which offers landscaping ideas for people regardless of whether they live in dense urban areas or open rural towns.
pump station, located behind Wild Willy’s on Western Avenue.
The upgrades are needed to handle the increase in sewer and storm water produced on the city’s west end, which has experi-enced rapid growth both in commercial and residential development since the original system was installed.
Once the project is complete, there will be fewer storm-water discharges into the Fore River, which should help improve water quality.
“By doubling the capacity at this pump-ing station, we’re anticipating it will handle all of the flow from this area,” Cloutier said.
Cloutier said the Long Creek station is the last Combined Sewer Overflow in the west end, leaving only five remaining throughout the city. At one point, the city had 28 CSOs, which discharge raw sewer-age into the water during heavy rain storms.
City Manager Jim Gailey said crews have 90 days to complete the Broadway portion of the project, which started last week. But city officials hope to wrap things up in 30

Scarborough history,” said Profenno. “They all come through the museum.”
Profenno said the Historical Society teaches the children how to sew buttons and make quilts like they did years ago, and also provides the children apple cider and cook-ies while they tour the museum.
Recently the museum installed a climate control system to preserve the cloth and paper exhibits. While the system is very important, it has also increased the organi-zation’s electric bill.
Profenno said she hopes Saturday’s event will bring people out. She said toward the end of the event, prices often drop and peo-ple walk away with bags and bags of items.
“It’s not like stuff sits on shelves for years at a time. We have six hours to make our money. It’s such a short window of time and we can’t store anything. What we don’t sell goes right into the Dumpster,” she said.emily Parkhurst can be reached at 781-3661 ext. 125 or

Beem is right about Jesus
I want to applaud Edgar Allen Beem’s stance on all churches, synagogues, mosques, etc., being open to all of God’s children, no matter what their sexual ori-entation. It is not too hard to imag-ine what Jesus’ re-sponse would be to those seeking to follow his teach-ings. I think that it would be compassion and tolerance, and a fearlessness in speaking out for those who are the objects of any form of discrimina-tion.
Ed McCartanBrunswick
Where do candidates stand on new park?
The late lamented primary elections fea-tured 11 candidates for governor of Maine singing pretty much in unison. They prom-ised to keep the economy and jobs, jobs, jobs front and center if elected.
They managed to do this without once mentioning the state’s top job engine, the $10 billion- to $13 billion-a-year tourism industry that accounts for 140,000 jobs.
Much less did any of them come up with a constructive idea for protecting or conserving the landscape which lures all those out-of-state folks to Maine during every season of the year. For example, there is an idea out there to study the feasibil-ity of creating a national park to protect the Moosehead Lake wilderness and the headwaters of all five of the state’s major
Beem is wrong, Jesus was no ‘liberal’
I cannot sit idly by and allow your col-umnist Edgar A. Beem to call my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ a (gasp!) “liberal” without at least saying something. Yes, Mr. Beem is correct in saying that there are many so-called progressive churches today. Actually, such churches have existed since the founding of Christianity. The Apostle Paul was compelled to address a letter directly to the Corinthian Church concern-ing their liberal views towards the sexual misbehavior of a young man in their midst. It is apparent by Paul’s second letter to that church that they did not elevate that man to a position of leadership, which seems to be the norm in the churches Mr. Beem ap-proves of. The second letter commends the church for the tough stand they took against
Beem, liberals miss the point
In his column, “Gov. LePage? Maybe it won’t be so bad,” Edgar Allen Beem pretty well summed up the prevailing political thinking in Maine.
He says that Republican Paul LePage “prescribes cutting taxes, reducing the size of state government and reducing govern-ment regulations as the keys to success,” but his opinion is that LePage doesn’t under-stand creative economy. (Why do I expect creative economy involves growing the size of government?)
Meanwhile, “Libby Mitchell, the Demo-crat, talks about her support for government spending on the arts.” But then he said, “Something tells me this is not going to be a good year for politicians identified with government spending.”
His final words are “Maine survived Jim Longley and it can survive Paul LePage, too. And if the economy rebounds, as it did toward the end of the Longley admin-
istration, the Tea Party may be over, Paul LePage can go back to peddling tube socks, and it will be time to elect Libby Mitchell Maine’s first woman governor.”
So, let’s elect a Republican to reign in spending, let’s let the economy rebound, and then let’s elect Libby Mitchell, who
can increase government spending.
Maybe, if you think about these points for a few minutes, you’ll un-derstand the frustration of the conservatives with
the current political climate. The liberals understand it may take sacrifice and down-scaling to get the economy turned around, but once it has rebounded, we can grow government again.
Finally, what frightens me the most is, “How Maine goes, so goes the nation.”
Jeff MarstallerNorth Yarmouth
that type of behavior and Paul expressed joy in the young man’s repentance.
This notion of repentance (remorse for past conduct and turning away from its practice) is very hard for liberals to accept. In The Book of John, Chapter 8, after Jesus saves an adulterous woman from an angry mob and forgives her, that episode ends with Jesus telling this woman “Go now and leave your life of sin.” This and many other examples in the Bible indicate to me that Jesus was no “liberal.”

rivers. The park would provide economic diversity and jobs in an area that is sorely in need of both.
Good idea, that one. Is there a national park anywhere that is not benefiting the economy of its region? Acadia National Park is a convenient example. A Michigan State University study four years ago found the park generating $13.5 million annually in economic activity, accounting for 3,400 jobs in direct and indirect employment. As the state’s top tourist destination, Acadia welcomes 2 million visitors a year.
Your Edgar Allen Beem has endorsed the park idea. I hope he’ll return to the topic during the current election campaign. Maybe he can shame the candidates into arguing about something less nutty than whether creationism should be taught in our schools.

Dechaine’s defense still fails to convinceEver since I moved to Maine more than 10 years ago, I
have been perplexed by the attention that has been given to Dennis Dechaine, and frustrated not to have a fuller picture of the story. With the attention paid to Dechaine lately by Portland’s daily newspaper, I decided to go back and read the case re-cords. Here’s what I found:
On July 6, 1988, a 12-year-old girl named Sar-ah Cherry was kidnapped from the home in Bowdoin where she was babysitting. She was tortured and killed. On March 18, 1989, a jury convicted Dennis Dechaine for Cherry’s murder, rape and gross sexual assault.
According to the reported decisions, the evidence at trial included that the Hen-kel family hired Cherry to care for their 10-month-old infant on July 6. As parting advice, Cherry’s mother admonished her not to let anyone in the house while she was babysitting.
Ms. Henkel spoke to Cherry around noon as Cherry was feeding the baby. Around 1 p.m., a neighbor heard a vehicle and dogs barking, and 15 minutes later saw a red Toyota pickup truck.
Ms. Henkel arrived home around 3:20 pm. She found
some papers, a notebook, and a repair bill belonging to Dechaine in her driveway. The doors to the house were slightly ajar, but the house was otherwise undisturbed. The baby was asleep and Cherry was missing.
Henkel searched for Cherry without success and called the police. Mr. Henkel arrived home and noticed an unusual tire track in the driveway that was consistent, it was later determined, with the tires on Dechaine’s truck.
Around 8:45 pm, Dechaine walked out of the woods about two miles away and told a homeowner that he lived in Yarmouth, was visiting Bowdoinham, had been fishing and could not find his truck. Sheriff’s deputies transported Dechaine to a command post that had been set up to handle the investigation. Dechaine hid the keys to his truck under the seat of the police cruiser.
At the command post, a detective and a deputy in-formed Dechaine that they were investigating the dis-appearance of a 12-year-old girl. They noticed what appeared to them to be fresh scratches and bruises on Dechaine. Dechaine told them he had been fishing and had lost track of his truck. He initially denied ownership of the materials found in the Henkels’ driveway, but then acknowledged that they were his and claimed that he had been set up.
The police searched for and found Dechaine’s locked, red Toyota pickup truck. He gave them permission to search it.
On July 8, 1988, a search team found Cherry’s body approximately 400 feet from where Dechaine’s truck had been found. She had been bound, gagged, grazed,
stabbed, strangled and sexually assaulted. Rope used to bind her wrists had the same characteristics as rope found in Dechaine’s truck. A piece of rope found in the woods exactly matched rope in Dechaine’s truck.
Dechaine was arrested. An arresting officer testified that Dechaine said it “must have been someone else inside me.” The booking officer testified that during processing, Dechaine said “Oh my God, it should never have happened. Why did I do this? I didn’t think it hap-pened until I saw her face on the news. Then it all came back to me. I remembered it. Why did I kill her? What punishment could they ever give me that would equal what I have done?”
Two corrections officers testified that Dechaine told them that they needed to know that he was the one who murdered that girl and they might want to put him in isolation.
Dechaine testified. He denied abducting, restraining or killing Cherry. He denied confessing. He claimed that he had been injecting drugs. Wandered into the woods. Injected more drugs. Got lost. Found his way out around dusk. Lied to the homeowner for fear the homeowner would notice that he was under the influence of drugs. Immediately acknowledged that the papers found in the driveway were his. Hid his keys after realizing that he had mistakenly told the police that he had left them in his

truck. Conceded that there were periods of time when his memory was not as sharp as it could have been.
The defense presented character evidence that Dechaine had a reputation for peacefulness and non-violence. The court refused to allow Dechaine to present information in support of an alternative-perpetrator theory because it was too speculative.
Dechaine appealed and the Supreme Judicial Court affirmed his conviction, observing that his alternative-perpetrator theory was unsubstantiated and speculative. The U.S. Supreme Court declined to review the case.
Dechaine moved for a new trial on the grounds of newly discovered evidence supporting his alternative-perpetrator theory. The court held a three-day hearing and denied the request on the grounds that the newly discovered evidence that an alternative perpetrator had a motive and the opportunity to commit the crime was too speculative and not substantiated enough to warrant a new trial.
Meanwhile, Dechaine’s counsel retrieved from the court what remained of Cherry’s fingernail clippings and sent them to a lab in Boston for analysis. The lab reported finding DNA from two or more donors, but not Dechaine.
Dechaine petitioned for post-conviction review on the grounds of ineffectiveness of counsel. The state moved to depose his co-counsel on the basis that co-counsel had evidence of Dechaine’s actual guilt (had told prosecutors that Cherry was not alive and that they were searching in the right area before Cherry’s body was found). The court denied Dechaine’s petition on the grounds that he had delayed his petition until after the co-counsel had suffered a stroke, which prejudiced the state’s case.
Dechaine collaterally attacked his conviction in federal court. The court denied the claim on the grounds that it lacked the power to order an alternative suspect to provide a saliva sample, and that Dechaine failed to show the fundamental miscarriage of justice required to escape his procedural default. It observed that the evidence of his guilt was substantial and the evidence of the alterna-tive perpetrator was inadequate. In particular, the court observed that the nail clippings had been handled in a manner that raised concern about contamination, and there was no evidence that the mystery DNA was trans-ferred to the fingernails during commission of the crime.
In 2006, a three-person panel appointed by the attorney general investigated five allegations of impropriety made against the prosecution team and found them all unsub-stantiated. The Legislature passed a law allowing new trial motions based on DNA analysis. Dechaine filed such a motion in 2008. It is awaiting a hearing.
My analysis? My analysis: Dechaine has had a lot of process and his defense theory doesn’t hold up in court.

‘Fair-skinned and Unbalanced’Big Mike and I were leisurely bobbing about
neck-deep in the lake to stay cool when all of a sud-den things started to heat up.
Mike, a retired state trooper, is my neighbor at the lake. A nice guy, hale fellow well met and all that. He calls me his “favorite liberal,” but until this par-ticular conversation I had no idea how conservative he was. Knowing, how-ever, that he is not a big fan of President Obama, I jokingly asked him if he’d gone to Mount Desert Island to get the president’s autograph.
Dark clouds suddenly appeared.
For the next 10 min-utes, as we continued to drift into deeper water, Mike lectured me about how Obama is out to destroy America. He knows this, he said, because he watches Fox News and I don’t.
I just smiled with horrid fascination as an other-wise reasonable man insisted the Obama Department of Justice has a policy of not prosecuting black-on-white crime. He knows this because a former DOJ official named J. Christian Adams said so. The proof is that the DOJ failed to prosecute a pair of New Black Panther Party members in Philadelphia who, during the 2008 presidential election, alleg-edly intimidated voters outside a polling place while dressed in Black Panther paramilitary gear and car-rying a nightstick.
As I had only vaguely recalled the 2008 incident, I had no idea what he was talking about. When I got home, I read up on the incident, which has been the subject of dozens of Fox News stories this summer.
Seems that two New Black Panther Party mem-bers, having been alerted that white supremacists might harass voters at a polling place in a pre-dominantly black housing complex, took it upon themselves to provide “security “ – i.e, intimidate any would-be intimidators, not the voters, who overwhelmingly supported Obama. No voter ever complained of being intimidated by the Panthers. Even the DOJ official who J. Christian Adams says told him of the DOJ’s racist policy (he has no direct knowledge of it himself) says Adams is full of it.
Still, Fox News is obsessed with the story, so that’s what was on Mike’s mind.
But that’s not all. Someone (I’m guessing Fox, Glenn Beck or Rush Limbaugh) has also convinced Mike that President Obama has plans to enlist the Black Panthers as a paramilitary force to counter domestic terrorism – i.e., right-wing militias, white supremacists and benevolent Tea Party folks like himself. When that happens, the Second American Revolution will break out.
This, of course, is exactly what I meant a year ago in this column when I warned that broadcast blowhards Beck and Limbaugh “are filled with hot air that they use to inflate the sick notion that our constitutional democracy is everywhere under attack from liberals seeking to turn America into a socialist dictatorship.”
I’m not sure whether Mike believes this or not, but some hard-right conservatives are now advancing the conspiracy theory that the Obama administration is orchestrating the Wall Street meltdown and the BP oil disaster in order to create the chaos necessary to effect a socialist takeover. It’s called the Cloward-Piven Strategy, after a pair of sociologists who, back in the 1960s, advocated a welfare enrollment drive as a way to overwhelm the welfare system in order to force the federal government to institute a guaran-teed annual income for all Americans.
Doesn’t seem to have worked, but I guess that’s beside the point.
There are also people out there in the blogosphere who believe that President Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder are themselves secret members of the New Black Panther Party. Now, I try to dif-ferentiate between frustrated mainstream Tea Partiers who just worry about debt, taxes and big govern-ment and right-wing wackos who believe this racist nonsense, but it’s getting harder and harder to do. Fox News, Fair-skinned & Unbalanced as it is, and conservative talk radio just keep poisoning the minds of ordinary Americans.
I mean, Mike, where do I start? You’re in way over your head. Maybe you should just stop watching Fox News for a while.

Beach to Beacon promises to be memorableBy Michael Hoffer
The 13th running of the biggest road race in the state of Maine, the TD Bank Beach to Beacon 10K, is scheduled to go off Sat-urday morning in Cape Elizabeth.
If it’s anything like the first 12, this weekend should produce plenty of thrills.
Some of the elite runners in the world, along with recreational runners from towns throughout Forecaster Country will take part. In all, a field of 6,000, including runners from 17 countries and 41 U.S. states will compete.
Defending champions, Ke-nyans Ed Muge and Irene Limika, will take part, as will elite run-ners such as Kenya’s Catherine

remember.
Ndereba and the United States’ Khalid Khannouchi.
Former Greely High and Dartmouth College standout Ben True, who set a course record (29 minutes, 10 seconds) in winning the Maine division last year, will run, but can’t repeat as he now lives out of state. That opens the door for locals Pat Tarpy of Yarmouth and Jon Wilson of Falmouth.
On the women’s s ide , Falmouth’s Sheri Piers is the de-fending champ and course record holder (34:17). She’ll be chal-lenged by Scarborough’s Kristin Barry, the 2008 women’s winner.
The race starts with wheelchair entrants at 7:55 a.m. at the start
line on Route 77. Runners start at 8:10. After traversing a 6.2-mile course, participants finish at Fort Williams.
This year’s race beneficiary is Junior Achievement of Maine, a non-profit organization providing economic education programs that help inspire Maine children to develop the skills, attitudes and behaviors of success in a global economy.
The TD Bank Beach to Beacon attracts more than 700 volunteers. TD Bank is the title sponsor of the race founded by Joan Benoit Samuelson, the 1984 Olympic gold medalist.

Keeping courses green is a challengeBy Peter Blais
Over the past 16 years, Skip Fitch has seen the worst Mother Nature can throw at course managers while first working in course maintenance at Portland Country Club and currently as superintendent at Point Sebago Golf Resort in Casco.
“I’ve never seen a stretch of hot, humid weather like this,” Fitch said, echoing the thoughts of fellow superintendents in the Greater Portland area. “It is chal-lenging to grow grass when tem-peratures are in the 70s at night and in the 90s during the day like we’ve had lately.
Heat is wreaking havoc on golf courses nationwide, especially in northern areas, according to a recent statement from the Golf Course Superintendents Asso-ciation of America (GCSAA), a national trade group. Prolonged periods of high temperatures and in some cases, excessive rainfall and high humidity have made life uncomfortable for golfers and
ContrIbuted PhotoRecent warm weather hasn’t been great news for everyone. Golf courses have
been affected.
golf courses alike.“The simple fact is the cool
season turfgrasses such as bent-grass, fescue, bluegrass, annual bluegrass (Poa annua) and others are stressed when temperatures climb and humidity is high,” said GCSAA Director of Research Clark Throssell. “Golf courses in many parts of the country experi-ence this every year. However, what makes the situation so dire this year are the high levels of extended heat and humidity, and the sizable part of the country affected (Midwest, Northeast and Mid-Atlantic).”
Much of the Northeast has seen below normal rainfall since April 2010 as well as unusually warm temperatures, especially during July, according to the Northeast Regional Climate Center.
While the additional players attracted by the warm weather are welcome at pro shop counters - especially considering the down economy and last year’s extremely rainy summer that hindered play -
these hot, humid patches are when Fitch and his fellow superinten-dents earn every penny of their pay checks.
Brown grass is the most obvious symptom of heat- and humidity-stressed turf. Even though golf’s major associations have endorsed a “brown is beautiful” initiative designed to encourage courses to use less water, most golfers still want the green, manicured Au-gusta National look they see each week on televised tournaments.
Scott Lancaster, head super-intendent at Toddy Brook Golf Course in North Yarmouth, re-ported some brown grass, particu-larly on the back nine, where the subsurface has a lot of ledge, roots cannot grow deep and ground temperatures bake nearby soil.
“I can deal with a little brown turf. Brown usually means the ball will roll farther,” Lancaster said.
Fitch has also noticed a bit more brown this season than in past years. But customers have yet to complain.
“We are watering where and when necessary,” he said. “I don’t mind if the grass goes brown in a few spots as long as it still plays well. That does not seem to bother our customers.”
The obvious answer to brown turf is generally, though not al-ways, to apply more irrigation water.
“We have definitely been wa-
tering more often this year,” Lan-caster said. “There is a bit more disease pressure because of the weather. You need to water more, but not too much. And if you get some disease, you might let it go rather than fight it too aggres-sively and hurt conditions. It is a balancing act.”
Fitch likewise reported doing

Problems occur when the roots don’t
alternating daily practices of mowing and rolling putting greens, with consideration to skipping a day if the schedule of play allows; forgoing double mowing, topdress-ing, verticutting or grooming greens; hand watering as much as feasible; and monitor-ing and adjusting golf cart traffic patterns to minimize stress to turf.
“We have stepped up other maintenance practices to give the grass its best chance to survive,” Fitch said.
The goal of all this is to keep playing conditions the best they can be in order to keep golfers happy.
Golfers seem to be responding to super-intendents’ efforts. For example, play seems to be steady this year at Point Sebago.
“Last year, we would have a huge influx of players, 200 to 250 a day, on those few days the weather was nice in July,” Fitch said. “This year, it seems to be a steady 150 to 175 daily.”
And for those who dislike the heat and humidity or simply appreciate Maine golf at its best, fall is on the way.
“Play slows down in mid-September and the turf recovers from any mid-summer stress very quickly,” Fitch concluded. ‛With the return of cooler weather, many consider September and October the best months to play.”

absorb the water or the liquid fails to drain well from grassy areas, water puddles and disease occurs.
“We have seen more take-all patch in areas that are poorly drained,” Lancaster noted of the fungus that causes grass to turn brown. “It is not easily treatable. Fortunate-ly it has shown up in just a few fairways.”
The major fear of course superintendents in this area is a disease called pythium. It spreads rapidly, killing large areas in as little as a day during conditions of high temperatures (80 degrees to 90 degrees), high soil moisture, and little air movement over the turf, according to a Cornell Uni-versity turfgrass fact sheet. By the time the grass starts to turn brown it is usually too late to save it. The condition is difficult and costly to prevent or cure with chemicals.
Neither Lancaster nor Fitch reports any
pythium outbreaks, although the fear never goes away. They monitor their facilities carefully for any sign of the disease rather than face applying either a preventive or curative chemical because of both the high cost (which would have to be passed on to golfers eventually) and potential environ-mental issues.
Another problem keeping grass green during the periods of high heat and hu-midity Maine has recently experienced is simply keeping workers motivated in those conditions. “I’ve read that the temperatures on riding mower seats can get up to 150 degrees on days like this,” Lancaster said.
The GCSAA listed other maintenance practices golfers may notice superinten-dents employing during hot, humid stretch-es such as: raising the mowing heights of playing areas, most notably putting greens;

‘Sunset Boulevard,’ Willie Nelson are top choicesBy Scott Andrews
Fields of goldenrod mark the second full month of the summer, and the seasonal offerings in music and theater continue at a hot pace.
The most notable offering in musical theater opened in Ogunquit last week: An-drew Lloyd Webber’s “Sunset Boulevard” is a dark tragedy based on the 1950 Billy Wilder film of the same name.
Willie Nelson, the gravel-voiced singer-songwriter who’s been on top of the coun-try music scene for five decades, comes to the Port City Aug. 11, courtesy of Portland Ovations.
Portland Chamber Music Festival, an an-nual late-summer event since 1994, starts its 2010 season on Aug. 12. The festival has become known for championing new music by living composers.
‘Sunset Boulevard’Andrew Lloyd Webber is the most suc-
cessful composer for the stage of the late 20th century, boasting an incredible string of hits on London’s West End and Broad-way beginning in the 1970s.
One of Webber’s darkest shows is “Sun-set Boulevard,” a tragedy that’s closely based on the celebrated 1950 Billy Wilder film of the same name. With libretto by Don Black and Christopher Hampton, “Sunset Boulevard” opened on the West End in 1993 and enjoyed a two-year run on Broadway between 1994 and 1997. That production garnered 11 Tony Award nominations, and won seven.
Performance rights to this show are not yet generally available to regional theater companies, so Ogunquit Playhouse has scored quite a coup by producing the New England premier.
Set in the late 1940s, “Sunset Boulevard” follows a young Hollywood screenwriter (Todd Gearhart) who’s down on his luck. To make ends meet, he collaborates on a script written by an aging and largely forgotten movie star (Stefanie Powers) from the silent film era. Despite a 20-year age difference, the faded film star also has romantic designs on the young man.
Powers, best-known as a television star, is the central figure in the show, but I couldn’t really warm up to her character until early in the second act, when she performs “As If We Never Said Goodbye,” one of Webber’s best-known songs.
Gearhart is superb throughout, alternat-ing between lead character and occasion-ally stepping aside to narrate. I also loved two of the supporting cast, Sal Mistretta

Boulevard,” running through Aug. 14 at Ogunquit Playhouse.
and Christina Decicco. Ogunquit’s elabo-rate sets (Todd Edward Ivins) and costumes (Anthony Powell) are other highlights of this wonderful production.
Ogunquit Playhouse, on Route 1 a half-mile south of the village, presents “Sunset Boulevard” at various days and times through Aug. 14. Call 646-5511 or visit www.ogunquitplayhouse.org.
Willie NelsonCountry music fans have been “crazy”
about Willie Nelson’s music since the 1960s, when the 30-something songwriter penned top-selling hits for Patsy Cline and Roy Orbison, including the legendary “Crazy” and “Pretty Paper.”
But Nelson couldn’t find the same suc-cess as a singer. For the first decade of his career, Nelson’s deep gravelly voice – his instantly recognizable signature style – was deemed too out of fashion by the solons of Nashville’s Music Row.
But in the 1970s Nelson achieved megastar status after a few shrewd busi-ness moves that included switching record labels, which allowed him the artistic free-dom to create and sing in his own voice. “Shotgun Willie,” his 1973 breakout album on the Atlantic label – a non-Nashville imprimatur – marked the watershed of his
career.The height of his popularity arrived in
the mid-1970s, when he was the acknowl-edged leader of the “outlaw country” movement. It’s worth noting that “outlaw” referred to thumbing his nose at Nash-ville conventions and working in Austin, Texas, instead of Music City. Hits from those years included my personal favorite: “Mammas Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys.”
Not wanting to argue with success – multiple gold records and multiple Gram-my Awards – Nashville has since embraced Nelson as one of their own. For the past four decades Nelson has been recording, writing and touring – plus he’s appeared in a number of movies – as a solo artist and in collaboration with others. Willie Nelson and Family is one of those collaborations, which features the icon himself plus kith and kin.
Portland Ovations presents Willie Nelson and Family Aug. 11 at 7:30 p.m. at Mer-rill Auditorium at Portland City Hall. Call PortTix at 842-0800.
Portland Chamber Music FestivalBack in August of 1994, two highly tal-
ented and energetic 20-something women with a yearning to play more chamber mu-
sic opened Maine’s newest classical festival with four days of concerts at the University of New England on Stevens Avenue.
I remember attending all four of those first-year concerts, and “Out & About” noted the very polished performances – as well as the enthusiastic response from the distressingly tiny audiences.
Fast forward 16 years. Violinist Jenny Elowitch, a Portland native, and pianist Dena Levine, a New Yorker with a dis-tinguished musical pedigree, are both 40-something moms whose initial vision has been totally fulfilled: The Portland Chamber Music Festival, which opens Aug. 12, has gained national recognition as one of the best small gatherings of its type, and Elowitch and Levine have been cited as notable arts entrepreneurs.
There have been a number of changes over the years. Those minuscule audiences of 1994 grew to the point where the fes-tival had to find a bigger venue. It’s cur-rently ensconced in Hannaford Hall in the Abromson Community Education Center, one of several new buildings on the Univer-sity of Southern Maine’s Portland campus.
PCMF has always featured new music by living composers. The current festival expands and extends that advocacy with a national competition and ongoing recogni-tion of Maine composers. Bowdoin Col-lege professor Elliott Schwartz has been involved from the beginning. Several of his compositions have been played over the years, and for 2010 he delivers the pre-concert lectures on all four evenings.
The featured Maine composer this year is Daniel Sonenberg, a USM scholar-performer. He will be represented on the festival’s first concert this season with “Whistlesparks,” a piece written for the unusual combination of flute and harp.
Each of the other three evenings show-cases a contemporary work. The Aug. 14 concert features Chen Yi’s “Happy Rain on a Spring Night,” scored for flute, clarinet, violin, cello and piano. Andrew List’s “Six Bagatelles for String Trio,” the winner of the fifth annual PCMF new music competi-tion, will be played Aug. 19. The contem-porary music series wraps up Aug. 21 with Charles Loeffler’s “Two Rhapsodies for Oboe, Viola and Piano.”
All concerts take place at 8 p.m. at Han-naford Hall, 88 Bedford St. in Portland. For details, visit www.pcmf.org.

High school costsfrom page 2
“We’re not looking at something that is going to have a similar burden on taxpay-ers,” she said.
According to two different financing scenarios prepared by the city’s Finance Department, the city would have to borrow between $41.2 million to $44.2 million. At its peak, the project could add nearly a dol-lar to the tax rate.
“The question about whether or not the budget is right in your mind for the com-munity is not the question we’re addressing here,” Cecil said.
“We’re trying to show the council, board and community that in fact the cost of this project per student is comparable or less than anything out there right now,” he said
For state-funded projects, Cecil said a justification must be made for every single classroom. Using that rubric, the South Portland project still holds up, he said.
While about $300,000 could be trimmed by eliminating more classrooms by build-ing a 1,000-student school, Godin said the school would not meet state guidelines.
About 1,073 are projected to attend the school in 2017-18, she said. State guide-lines would require the district to round up to the next 100.
“We need to be prepared for 1,100 stu-dents,” Godin said.
Voters in 2007 rejected by a 3-1 margin a $56 million plan that would have built a 1,200-student school and added a second gymnasium and artificial turf field.
The high school is currently on warning status for its accreditation through the New England Association of Schools and Col-
leges, solely because of the facility issues.After more than two hours discussing the
proposal Monday night, councilors decided to adjourn the workshop, which took place after a business meeting, and continue at a later date.
Coward said he would be meeting with the city manager to schedule another workshop.

School technologyfrom page 4
Wallace said the district awards Smart-Boards through a competitive grant process where teacher’s must demonstrate how they will be used in the classroom.
Two residents, however, questioned the necessity of the technology.
Albert DiMillo criticized city officials for not conducting a cost-benefit analysis to see if student performance is actually improved by the technology.
“We know the cost; what’s the benefit?” DiMillo said. “We’ve got these Smart-Boards, yet our test scores are not very good in South Portland.”
Gary Crosby agreed with those com-ments and returned to the microphone to question the $153,500 price tag for 140 Dell laptop computers and 120 LCD monitors. Each laptop cost about $996 each.
“Something isn’t right there,” he said.While residents said they could get simi-
lar laptops for about $500, Wallace said the price was higher because each comes with a three-year warranty, costing $125 for each computer.
The district also bought nine-cell batter-ies that can last all day and the computers are lighter than most computers.
DiMillo said the district opted for the
Mercedes of laptops, rather than a Buick or Chevrolet.
“When you want the newest technology, you pay twice the price,” he said.
While Councilor Tom Blake said the price was similar to what he paid for the exact same computer, Councilor Rosemarie De Angelis said the city should have gotten a better rate for buying in bulk.
“It does look to me like this is street price,” she said.
Blake asked that the city have a work-shop about the bidding process, which cur-rently does not allow the city or schools to negotiate with vendors once the proposals are received.
Meanwhile, Wallace acknowledged that the city didn’t get the best deal from Dell.
“We’re not terribly pleased,” he said. “This is on the high end. And this will make us have a serious talk with Dell.”
Wallace said the laptops and the wireless equipment for Brown and Skillin elemen-tary schools will improve equity across the district, since most schools are transitioning away from computer labs in favor of inte-grating technology in the classroom.
Although the City Council approved the purchasing contract, the funding will come from the school’s budget.

munity, noting that many neighborhoods hold parties and decorate their front lawns during the race.
Davis Street, Fort Road, Benjamin Pick-ett Street and Surfsite Road will be closed from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. for the race.
“There’s been a tremendous outpouring of community support,” Marchese said. “They make a little festival out of it.”
Beth Vose-Gimbel is one of several people who will be decorating on Sawyer Street to show support for both the athletes and the Maine Cancer Foundation.
Vose-Gimbel, whose friend and sister-in-law are battling breast cancer, said their theme will be “anything pink,” the color associated with breast cancer awareness.
“I wanted to do something, but I’m not a doctor or a scientist,” she said.
There will be people collecting donations for the Maine Cancer Foundation in front of the displays, and Vose-Gimbel will be sell-ing a panoramic shot of last year’s event to go to the cause.
Vose-Gimbel said she has convinced two other neighborhoods to decorate their yards and hopes others will follow.
“I love Maine Cancer (Foundation); they’re so pure,” she said. “I just want to challenge people to get involved.”
For more information about the event, log on to MaineTriForACure.org.

In addition to labeling plants and install-ing the interpretive panels, the group will also plant different varieties of grass that fare particularly well in Maine’s variable climate.
A longer-term goal of the department, Fish said, is to establish a special certifi-cation program for landscapers who have been trained in eco-friendly landscaping practices.
“We’re attacking this from a lot of differ-ent angles,” he said.
Meanwhile, FOCB Associate Director Mary Cerullo said she is seeing a similar rise in interest in the non-profit’s Bayscap-ing program, which publicizes the negative effects of fertilizers and pesticide runoff on Portland Harbor.
The group is armed with data from storm-water samples taken at the height of rainstorms from Portland to the Brunswick, which show traces of toxic lawn chemicals in each coastal community.
The group is now preparing to use sedi-ment sampling to see how many of those chemicals become absorbed by the ocean bottom, which could reveal the chemicals’ effects on ocean life, particularly the devel-opment of shellfish.
Cerullo said she and another FOCB member conduct 20 to 30 neighborhood socials, where they distribute information about eco-friendly landscaping tips and answer questions.
For example, the group suggests mowing
lawns 3 inches high get rid of crabgrass. It says homeowners should never fertilize their lawns until they have first conducted a soil test. And if necessary, fertilizer should only be applied in the fall.
Even organic fertilizers can cause prob-lems, Cerullo said. Motorists heading to South Portland only need to look toward the shoreline of Turner Island to see the effect of excess nitrogen in the runoff: at low tide, the mudflats are covered with green algae.
There is evidence that interest in chem-free landscaping is increasing. Cumberland resident Paul Tukey has been conducting workshops on chem-free landscaping centered around the film, “A Chemical Reaction.”
Tukey, a professional landscaper, devel-oped an acute sensitivity to chemicals he applied to properties throughout greater Portland and has become an advocate for chem-free landscaping. A recent workshop in South Portland drew more than 50, Ce-rullo said.
Meanwhile, groups in Falmouth, Cumberland and Yarmouth have been meet-ing to consider recommending banning the use of chemical pesticides and fertilizers on town property.
Cerullo said the neighborhood socials are a great way to create pockets of change within a community. All it takes is one person to initiate it, she said.
“Often that peer pressure and support helps a neighborhood adjust,” Cerullo said. “It’s hard being the only one with dande-lions.”

Committee in July, and may be moved to the Planning Board as it can be addressed within the Zoning Ordinance.
Councilors will also consider proposed amendments to the Town Council Rules to implement changes consistent with the newly adopted communications strategy.
Under the section regarding participation and conduct of meetings, the council will discuss removing a section that will limit dialogue to only the councilors and invited parties. They may also remove the section that allows public comment on propos-als discussed at workshop meetings to be voiced only at regular business meetings and by e-mail, letter and phone.
In it’s place, the council may allow the public to speak on each agenda item for up to three minutes for a total of 15 minutes before the council discusses the item. The council chairman may allocate additional time if there are more speakers than the time allows, and the public participation portion will end when the council begins its discussions.
Supplemental documents and other agenda items may be viewed at capeeliza-beth.com.

Until the mid 1970s, no Western scien-tists knew where the butterflies wintered over, said Pringle. Of course, the local people in Mexico knew, but no one was telling.
Then a Canadian scientist found the trees, high up in the Mexican forest, where mil-lions of butterflies spent the winter. He pub-lished his findings in National Geographic, but refused to reveal the exact location.
However, Dr. Lincoln Brower, a research professor at Princeton, figured out based on the report, where he could find the but-terflies. Since then, Brower has continued to study the migration and has even begun offering Princeton alumni a guided trip to Mexico to see the famous trees full of but-terflies.
Pringle, who is a Princeton alumnus him-self, said after traveling to Cape May, N.J. to see the first part of the Monarch migra-tion, he couldn’t turn down an opportunity to see them at the end of their journey.
So he and his wife packed up and headed to Mexico with a team of scientists. They were guided by locals through the forests into the mountains.
“This was anti-resort Mexico,” said Pringle.
Pringle said one of the biggest challenges for the area is balancing the local people’s need to support themselves by harvesting lumber with protecting the tallest trees where the butterflies spend their winters.
“It’s rich tourists and eco-tourism versus lumbering,” said Pringle.
Pringle will present photos from his trip and discuss Monarch migration at the

arrive at 6:30 a.m. in order to avoid traffic and possible delays. Roadside parking is not allowed and race officials ask that no pedestrians be on the road along the course after 8 a.m.
Runners can park near the start line at the Sprague Fields near Fowler and Ram Island Farm roads and at Cape Eliza-beth’s high school and middle school. There will be signs providing directions. Runners will then be shuttled from the parking lots to the start between 6:30 a.m. and 7:30 a.m.
Runner drop-off is at the Gull Crest Fields parking lot, half a mile from the intersection of Spurwink Road and Route 77. There will be flaggers for direction. Runners are required to be at the start line by 7:30 a.m.
Staff and spectators can park at the fin-ish line, and are advised to arrive before 7:15 a.m. because of road closings. How-ever, people may enter the fort from the north from Shore Road via Cottage Road in South Portland, which will remain open. Shuttle buses will operate from 9 a.m.-1 p.m. to the start area, school park-ing lots and satellite locations.
New this year will be satellite park-ing and shuttle bus service to the start line from South Portland High School
at 737 Highland Ave. and the Hannaford Bros. corporate office parking lot at 145 Pleasant Hill Road, Scarborough. Shuttle buses will run from these locations from 6:30-7:15 a.m., and return to these loca-tions from Fort Williams after the race.
The formal awards ceremony will be after the race at 10 a.m. at Fort Williams at the top of flagpole hill.
The Kids Fun Run will be Friday, Aug. 6, at 6 p.m. at the soccer field at Fort Wil-liams, with the rain date Saturday, Aug. 7, at 9:15 a.m. Updates are available at the TD Bank Beach to Beacon website, beach2beacon.org.
The kids races will run in heats, ac-cording to age. Registration and packet pick up for the fun run will be Thursday, Aug. 5, from 4-8 p.m. during race reg-istration at Cape Elizabeth High School and Friday, Aug. 6, near the race location.
“I’m going to Cuba this October to look at the communist structure there,” said Babine, who is currently in Indiana where Tau Kappa Epsilon’s headquarters are located.
In the meantime, Babine said he would also be traveling to colleges all over the U.S. and Canada for Tau Kappa Epsilon, speaking to fraternities and meeting with alumni.
While the council rules do not have attendance requirements, Babine said he did not think it was fair to Scarborough residents to remain on the council when he would not be able to regularly attend

meetings.His resignation is effective immedi-
ately. The final year of Babine’s term will be up for grabs in the November election.
Nomination papers for the empty seat and two more three-year seats – currently held by Vice Chairwoman Judy Roy and Councilor Michael Wood – are available beginning Wednesday, Aug. 4, at the town clerk’s office. They are due back to the town clerk on Sept. 1.Emily Parkhurst can be reached at 781-3661 ext. 125 or

Eastern Trailfrom page 1
ContributedA citizen group has filed a lawsuit against the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife to protect approximately 3,000 feet of the Eastern Trail, which runs through
Scarborough Marsh, from development.
Wildlife Restoration Act of 1937, which requires land purchased with funds gen-erated from a tax on hunting equipment sales to be protected wildlife areas.
The group, called Scarborough Citi-zens Protecting Resources, has been fighting easements on this land for sev-eral years, although the group says the most recent easement, granted to KDA Development in 2005 for the Eastern Village development, would turn ap-proximately 3,000 feet of the popular biking and walking trail into a town road.
Four years later, in 2009, a town pur-chase of 46 acres on the Manson Libby Road from the Gervais family was used to offset the easement granted to KDA.
“IF&W did a paper transaction,” said attorney Steve Hinchman, who is repre-senting Scarborough CPR. “The Gervais acquisition was added to the marsh in 2009. They want to go back and credit the purchase of the Gervais land against these easements.”
Because federal law prohibits sale of land purchased with funds from Pittman-Robertson, a land swap would effectively cancel out the issuance of the Eastern Village easements. However, the Gervais land was purchased with funds from Scarborough’s voter-approved
Parks and Recreation bond money, which, by ordinance, must only be used to purchase land for public recreational use.
“It’s just outrageous for IF&W to fix its lawbreaking by dragging Scarborough into this,” Hinchman said. “It would violate the town’s own ordi-nance and state law.”
However, he said, it’s not too late, because the trail has not yet been turned into a road.
“We would like to see the trail pre-served. We don’t want to see this turned into a road,” DeWitt Wilder said. “We’ve been talking to IF&W for two years now. This is our last resort.”
A Maine IF&W representative said the

year, but only exceeded state standards in 12 percent of its 42 samples.
While the report does not identify the cause of increased bacteria levels, South Portland Treatment Systems Manager Jim Jones, who oversees water testing at the beach, said the cause of last year’s spike was likely the amount of rain.
“We had a pretty wet summer,” Jones said. “When we get a good heavy thunderstorm, we seem the bacteria numbers go up on the beach.”
There are several storm-water pipes jutting from the sand that released storm water into the water off the beach.
Jones said the city tests the water twice a week, on Monday and Wednes-
day. Lifeguards, who are trained by Maine Healthy Beaches, collect three water samples along the beach and send them to the city Water Resource Protec-tion Department for analysis.
Jones said the department tests for Enterococcis, which indicates the presence of fecal matter in the water and can cause a variety of secondary infections.
“If those are present, then there’s fecal material present from warm-blooded animals,” he said. “It could be birds, sea gulls or human waste, but it doesn’t differentiate.”
Willard Beach allows dogs early in the morning and at night throughout the summer and all day during the rest of the year.
It takes about 24 hours to get a bacteria culture, Jones said. If levels are high, the Recreation Department is alerted, so officials can determine

whether to close the beach.Every closure or advisory is reported
to Maine Healthy Beaches, which maintains a statewide database.
Hannah Hunter, a Wiscasset resi-dent who is taking classes at Southern Maine Community College, was wad-ing along the shoreline when told about the report’s findings.
“Gross,” the 22-year-old said as she headed for dry land. “I’m not going back in there.”
Most swimmers on Wednesday, how-ever, didn’t care about the report.
South Portland resident Eliza Nichols was packing up her belongs while keep-ing a close eye on her 2-year-old son, Jasper, who was splashing in shallow water.
Nichols, who had been swimming that day, said she comes to Willard Beach about once a week. She wasn’t surprised to hear the beach was named one of the
dirtiest in the state.“It doesn’t surprise me. There’s a
city runoff drain right there,” she said. “We know it’s probably not the cleanest beach.”
Nichols said cleanliness is relative and the report would not keep her from returning.
“I used to live in L.A.,” she said. “I used to go swimming in that ocean, too.”
While 2009 was not a banner year for Willard Beach, as of Wednesday there had been no beach closings this season. Swimmers had been placed under advi-sory only four times this year.
That means the green flag has been flying above the Beach House more often this year, which is good news to swimmers.
“I just go by the flag,” Nichols said. “If it’s green, I assume it’s safe to go in.”randy billings can be reached at 781-3661 ext. 100 or
