chael Tuohey gets a lot of phone calls every September.

As the airline agent who handed the boarding passes to 9/11 hijackers Mohamed Atta and Abdulaziz Al-Omari at the Portland International Jetport on Sept. 11, 2001, Tuohey has been asked to repeatedly tell his story.

It’s no surprise that for the 10th anniversary of the attacks, reporters from news orga-nizations local and national have been calling Tuohey. In

Scarborough won’t stand in the way of fireworksTown also considers new directional signsBy Mario Moretto

SCARBOROUGH — Town leaders don’t yet have any plans to bristle against a new state law allowing the sale and use of con-sumer fireworks.

Town councilors and Fire Chief Michael Thurlow discussed the new law, and what they should do about it, at a meeting Wednesday night.

The law, signed by Gov. Paul

LePage on July 1, allows the purchase and use of consumer fireworks, such as bottle rockets, morning glories and roman can-dles, but not the type of giant ex-plosives that illuminate the sky on the Fourth of July. It also allows municipalities to pass ordinances regulating or prohibiting the sale or use of the fireworks.

“I’m of the mindset to say let’s wait and see what happens in a year before we make any earth-shattering, strict ordinances,” Councilor Richard Sullivan said.

Police Department.

South Portland Police Dept.: There’s an app for thatBy Mario Moretto

SOUTH PORTLAND — There’s a new way to report non-emergency crimes in the city.

Instead of navigating the Police Department’s phone directory – which “even on the best of days can be a confusing experience,” according to Sgt. Thomas Si-monds – smartphone users can take advantage of an application launched last week.

The department joined 17 other police departments using My Police Department, or MyPD, an app that provides one more way for residents to connect with law

enforcement. South Portland’s is the first department in Maine to use the app; Most others are in Massachusetts, although agencies in Alabama, Georgia, Wisconsin, California and Texas are also on board.

Simonds said the SPPD is in some ways an early adopter of both field and online technol-ogy. He said the department had a website in the late 1990s, even before the city did, and hopped on technology such as Tasers and thermal imaging cameras.

Cape Elizabeth to hire consultant to measure support for library planBy Amy Anderson

CAPE ELIZABETH — By the end of the year, and with information gathered by a fundraising consultant, the Town Council will decide whether to schedule a referendum in November 2012 on a new Thomas Memorial Library.

At a workshop on Tuesday, Sept. 6, councilors decided to move forward with a plan to approve $30,000 to hire Demont Associates of Portland to gauge the proj-ect’s fundraising potential.

According to Town Manager Mike McGovern, the fundraising consultant will investigate the library’s design and program needs and begin a fundraising

study to identify leadership for a fund-raising campaign.

He said about $50,000 of the town budget has been set aside for design work and consultant fees.

Vetted by a committee of Thomas Me-morial Trustees and representatives of the Thomas Memorial Library Foundation, Demont Associates will meet with about 50 to 70 people between now and early next year to discuss plans for the library.

McGovern said the consulting firm is expected to provide a report on the potential for a successful fundraising campaign to raise a portion of the cost of the library. When the council has that

information, he said it will be the time to discuss next steps, including the prospect of a referendum vote.

“The referendum would be on the same date as the presidential election,” McGovern said. “The timing seems to fit since a greater majority of the public will be out for a vote like that.”

The council also asked for a time line of action between now and the November 2012 referendum, he said.

“I’m pleased what we’ve put out in the past month,” McGovern said. “We are relaying the information we have in the newspapers and online and we are begin-ning to engage the public.”

Councilor Sara Lennon said public

outreach is one of the most important as-pects of the project. She said the council recognizes the importance of feedback and welcomes “any and all” comments.

“We need to find out what the public thinks before we go any further,” she said Wednesday. “Personally, I think it’s nec-essary and appropriate to take this next step. Demont Associates will do a good job taking the temperature of the com-munity and will provide us with honest and helpful feedback.”

The council will meet Monday, Sept. 12, for a regular meeting at 7:30 p.m. in the Town Hall Council Chambers.

CorrectionLast week’s story, “Scarborough

agency helps maintain bond be-tween seniors, their pets,” should have said Scarborough resident Eddie Woodin donated a $2,500 matching grant to the Southern Maine Agency on Aging. Also, Woodin’s bird seed distribution program was managed by Woodin, not SMAA.

South Portland councilors to get iPads, clash over Willard Square zoningBy Randy Billings

SOUTH PORTLAND — If city coun-cilors and sixth-graders have one thing in common it is this: they are all getting Apple iPads.

The council on Wednesday voted 5-1, with Councilor Al Livingston opposed, to spend $6,500 on the tablet comput-ers, a price that includes year-round data plans for $2,100.

The council also approved an iPad policy, but amended a portion of the proposal dealing with replacing lost or stolen iPads, which cost $630 each.

The policy would have required

SCARBOROUGH — Creative Work Systems will host its Celebrate YES! Festival of the Arts from 5:30-8 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 15, at Camp Ketcha, 336 Black Point Road.

Cape rebuilding Town Hall entrance

CAPE ELIZABETH — The Town Hall front porch will be rebuilt from Sept. 6 through early October.

The project will return the main en-trance to its original look of the 1900s. There will be new decking, two new col-umns, side railings, a new building sign and interior structural support.

The estimated cost is $42,000, but the Facilities Department will use in-house staff for most of the work.

The main entrance will be closed dur-ing construction.

Cape needs Middle School crossing guards

CAPE ELIZABETH — The Police Department is looking for residents who can serve as crossing guards at the Middle School.

For more information, contact Police Chief Neil Williams at 767-3323 or via

councilors to bear the full cost of re-placing lost or stolen iPads.

“I think it’s rather unreasonable un-der any situations where it’s lost or sto-len to be 100 percent responsible,” said Councilor Tom Blake, suggesting iPads could be stolen at meetings. “We know how quickly things disappear in life.”

Councilors voted 6-1, with Councilor Jim Hughes opposed, for an amend-ment that leaves the replacement cost, if any, of lost or stolen iPads up to the council.

While the iPads are to be used during city meetings and workshops, council-

ors may also download additional apps at their own cost for their personal use.

Funding for the iPads and data plans will come from undesignated surplus this year, and likely from the general fund in the future.

Willard SquareIf the iPad decision was quick, a first

reading of proposed zone changes in Willard Square was anything but that.

Councilors debated several proposed changes for about an hour and a half. The biggest sticking point was a Plan-ning Board recommendation to remove ordinance language that requires com-

mercial use on the first floor of the 12 buildings in Willard Square.

Preble Street resident Margaret Car-mody already lives on the first floor of her property in Willard Square, but if she were to propose enough renovation to trigger a site plan review, she could end up subject to the rule. She said the restriction, which has been in place since the Willard Square zone was enacted in 2006, removes her personal property rights.

“It is the wrong precedent for the city to set,” Carmody said. “All property owners should pay attention to this.”

Initially, a majority of the seven

6 candidates seek 4 council seats in ScarboroughBy Mario Moretto

SCARBOROUGH — A field of six candidates has emerged for four vacant seats on the Town Council.

Councilors Karen D’Andrea, Ron-ald Ahlquist and Richard Sullivan are seeking re-election. They are joined on the ballot by Paul Andriulli, James Benedict and Planning Board member Kerry Corthell.

Benedict and Corthell ran unsuccess-fully for the Town Council last year.

Candidates slow to fill Cape Elizabeth ballotBy Amy Anderson

CAPE ELIZABETH — With the Sept. 9 filing deadline looming, it seems there may at best be three can-didates on the Nov. 8 ballot for three School Board seats.

Only candidate had returned nomina-tion papers as of Wednesday.

At least two and perhaps three candi-dates are expected to compete for two seats on the Town Council.


The three School Board seats are two three-year terms, now held by Chair-woman Mary Townsend and Kathy Ray, and the remaining two years of an unexpired term held by new state Rep. Kimberly Monaghan-Derrig, D-Cape Elizabeth.

As of Wednesday, Town Clerk Debra Lane said, Joanna Morrissey of Old Fort Road was the only resident to return papers.

Townsend took out papers for re-election and said she intended to file before the Friday deadline. Elizabeth Scifres of Longfellow Drive also took out papers, but said she was uncertain about becoming a candidate.

Townsend said she wants to serve on the board with the new superintendent of schools, Meredith Nadeau. “It has

been a pleasure to serve on this board,” she said. “It has been a privilege and very fulfilling.”

The two Town Council seats up for election are held by Council Chairman David Sherman and Councilor Anne Swift-Kayatta.

Sherman, a resident of Hunts Point Road, and former School Board mem-ber Kathy Ray, of Spurwink Avenue,

Andriulli is making his first run for elected office.

Andriulli, Benedict, D’Andrea and Sullivan are each seeking one of three, three-year terms on the council. Barring a successful write-in campaign, all but one of them will be elected.

Corthell and Ahlquist are running to fill the remainder of Councilor Michael Wood’s term. Wood announced recently that he will resign to take a new job out of state. His term expires in November 2013.

Freedom rings, 10 years after 9/11Sept. 11, 2001, arrived after a series of eerily beautiful,

late-summer days filled with bright, clear, cloudless sun-shine. For weeks, the only news had been of shark attacks and the disappearance of a congressional intern.

There was a sense that we were at the end of history: that the great debates, such as the ones between democracy and socialism, capitalism and communism, had been de-cided; that there were no big challenges on the horizon; and that the country’s insatiable appetite for sensation was gnawing.

That Tuesday morning was one of those supernaturally sunny days. I had gone to court in Portland to watch a colleague’s trial. I got there in time to see the end of her opening statement. A colleague leaned over the back of my bench to let me know that a plane had hit the World Trade Center.

I returned to the office, where a group of people were in one of the conference rooms, watching TV. Together, we watched video of the two planes crashing into the Twin Towers, replayed numerous times from different angles. I watched without understanding as things fell from the towers. I watched in disbelief as the towers collapsed in a cloud of dust. I watched as reporters covered the story of how one of my former colleagues had called her husband from the plane that hit the Pentagon.

I watched President George W. Bush’s brief statement from a school in Florida, where he had been reading to

children, about how America was under attack. I began to get increasingly concerned about my own children, and around 11:30 a.m., I called my wife and told her that I would pick them up from school. My boss held a meeting and announced that we could leave if we wanted to. I left, collected my kids, made sure that they were safe at home with their mother, and came back to the office to see if there was anything I could do to help.

Throughout the evening I followed the news of the presi-dent flying around the country until it was safe to return to Washington. That evening, we all watched the president’s address.

In the 10 years since, we have struggled to find the right response to Islamic terrorism, one that is both effective and true to our sense of fairness, whether that is increased intelligence, economic sanctions, law enforcement, legal action, diplomacy, covert operations, or military force. It has been costly and controversial, and not without its set-backs. Lately, we seem to have experienced some success with special operations and unmanned drones. But, there will always be challenges and difficulties and setbacks. It’s not easy stuff.

Many people lost their lives that day. They all deserve to be remembered.

I remember the passengers of United Airlines Flight 93. It was supposed to fly from Newark to San Francisco. But it got hijacked instead. Armed with coffee pots, food carts, and the information that they had learned via cell phones about the plot in which they had become unwitting partici-pants, the passengers of Flight 93 fought their hijackers for control. While they did not succeed in saving themselves, they did succeed in saving other Americans, perhaps some

that worked in our Capitol building, and they planted their plane in a field in Pennsylvania.

Their action is a testament to freedom.Halsey Frank is a Portland resident, attorney and former

chairman of the Republican City Committee.

Knock me over like a ton of bricksLos Angeles basically has summer all year round. It also

has a tectonic map that looks like a shattered glass-topped coffee table, so earthquakes are what California has instead of weather.

I lived through three big ones, dozens I could feel and hundreds I couldn’t. I thought I was done with all that until a couple of weeks ago. I was in the men’s room at Trader Joe’s, and the wall started wobbling. I had a mini stroke immediately, divine retribution for all the bacon cheeseburgers. Then it went away, and I forgot about it until a half-happy, half-scared checkout clerk chirped, “Did you feel the earthquake?”

“How cute,” I thought. “She thinks that was an earth-quake.” Because I knew better as a grizzled veteran of 20 years on the Pacific Rim. Then I felt like an idiot. Of course she should be excited and scared. Earthquakes, even small ones, are a very big deal.

Carol and I went through that same naive stage. In 1989 we visited San Francisco. On the way home I realized the bluff we were driving by was the San Andreas Fault: basi-cally, where two continents are jammed together. It was just an ordinary hill, until three days later when it slipped and pulled the rug out from under the whole Bay Area, interrupting the World Series and collapsing freeways.

A couple of years later, I was at a driving range. I looked up and saw the ground rise up, and waves passed under my feet like an ocean of land. It was kind of fun, like surfing, only without the board. And on an ocean made of land. I even thought it was kind of cool when I saw a hill in front of me disappear in a cloud of dust. If this was what all the fuss was about, I thought, Californians were scaredy cats. Especially the waitress who came screaming out of the cof-fee shop, and my wife, who called and suggested I come home 10 seconds ago. I told her I still had half a bucket of balls. Ever notice how loud spouses can be when they don’t get it?

In fact, I didn’t really get it, not until I was indoors for one, at work a few years later. That’s when it got real. A force that makes solid ground ocean-like doesn’t even notice something as insubstantial as a building, much less anything inside it. Watching a refrigerator levitate really makes you think. I discovered I didn’t want to die in a room of screaming comedy writers.

I also learned how to tell whom you care the most about: live through a big scary earthquake. The first person you check on? That’s it. Want to know who cares about you? Notice who checks on you. Which reminds me, I owe Carol an apology for that driving range conversation.

During the scariest one, we were all in the same bed – at first, anyway. Bobby was a baby. Sometimes we let him sleep in between us. Thank God we did that night. I must have woken up just as the first tremors struck because I was awake when I was airlifted eight, maybe 10 feet across the room. Seriously, we’re not that important.

If I had no other reasons to think of my wife as a hero

(there are many), her behavior at that moment would ce-ment her place. Carol must have woken up at the first tremor, but somehow she managed to stay on the bed and to roll over and shield Bobby with her body. There’s a bond between her and her children – between mothers and their children – that I will never understand. I know I don’t have it; some other connection, maybe, but not that one.

One thing that makes a big earthquake big is duration. This one seemed endless. It took forever to get back to them. I crawled, and I still got knocked down a couple of times. I had to pull myself up to get on the bed. For a panicky moment I could see her, but not him, then realized she had cocooned him under her. She wouldn’t move for a long time. I don’t think she could have if she wanted to. That primal quality that she has and I don’t kicked in, and that baby would only get hurt literally over her dead body.

It’s been years since I’ve thought about those few ter-rifying moments when my illusions of permanence were destroyed. By all rights I should have gotten it the first time, like that Trader Joe’s clerk did, and all the other excited, scared people I saw that day. People in Portland instinctively seem to have a healthier perspective on their place in the cosmic scheme of things. They don’t need to have a house fall on them.

Redistricting for dummiesMaine was due for a congressional redistricting in

2013, but thanks to a pair of Republican operatives in Cape Elizabeth, we are now being treated to a court-ordered redistricting that has revealed the ridicu-lous lengths to which the GOP will go to gain an advantage.

William DeSena and Sandra Dunham, Republicans from Cape, filed a lawsuit asking for an early redistricting al-legedly because the shift in Maine population re-vealed in the 2010 U.S. Census “diluted their votes.” With 668,515 residents in the 1st Congressional District and 659,846 in the 2nd Congressional District, DeSena and Dunham claimed to be concerned that their 1st District votes would not count as much as 2nd District votes.

Personally, I’d be amazed if either DeSena or Dun-ham could say that with a straight face. Really? You’re losing sleep because your vote has been devalued? You might just as well argue that because there are 654,000 women and only 620,000 men in Maine that you are being are under-represented as a man.

No, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, what DeSena, Dunham, their lawyer Tim Woodcock, the merry olde Maine Heritage Policy Center, and the Maine Repub-lican Party are interested in is not equity, fairness or justice; it’s screwing the Democrats. They must have been laughing up their sleeves when they sued the state of Maine to force the LePage administration to do something it was dying to do anyway.

“Oh, please, Brer Billy, don’t throw me in the briar patch.”

As a 1st District voter and Democrat, I could argue that the population difference between the districts actually makes our votes count more, not less. Rep. Chellie Pingree represents 8,669 more citizens than 2nd District Rep. Mike Michaud.

The task at hand now is to transfer 4,334 residents from the 1st District to the 2nd District in order to

achieve the balance so ardently sought by the Grand Old Party. The Democrats initially proposed a very simple and sensible way to do this – just move the town of Vassalboro into the 2nd District. Neat.

The Republicans, however, have their own idea of neat. Back in 2003, they proposed a redistricting plan that would have divided the state vertically, such that Portland and Millinocket would have been in the same congressional district. Rep. Tom Allen would have then had to run against Rep. Mike Michaud. A pair of incumbent Democrats forced to run against one another. That’s the Republicans’ idea of neat.

This year, the GOP turned itself inside out to come up with a redistricting plan that would have moved 360,000 people to different districts, this time draw-ing their tortuous line such that Pingree, who lives in North Haven, would be in the 2nd District and have to run against Michaud. Pingree, however, owns property in Portland and could have continued to represent the 1st District, but it was a nice try.

No one with any sense of fair play or common sense could believe the Republicans’ cockamamie proposal. I swear I don’t understand why anyone who earns less than $250,000 supports them. But Republican Party Chairman Charles Webster defended the DeSena-Dunham cabal that set the screwball redistricting in motion.

‘’It’s not like there’s some scheme, with Republicans behind it, to do this,’’ he said.

It’s not? Well, yes, Charlie, it sure as heck is.As in 2003, the Maine Supreme Court will no doubt

have to step in to craft a redistricting plan following bad faith efforts of the court-ordered redistricting com-mission. It probably won’t make one iota of difference where the line gets drawn (yawn), but, then again, it could.

Maine is one of the states that splits its electoral votes depending on who wins in each district. So there is a far-fetched chance that the fate the nation could rest on where we draw the line in Maine.

Which begs the question: Why draw the line geo-graphically? Frankly, I’m surprised the purely partisan Maine Republican Party hasn’t proposed making all 272,871 registered Republicans residents of the Sec-ond District and all 322,848 registered Democrats resi-dents of the First District. That’s the only way a rabid Republican is going to beat the moderate Michaud.

Freelance journalist Edgar Allen Beem lives in Yarmouth. The Universal Notebook is his personal, weekly look at the world around him.

Edgar Allen Beem

Beem’s college column takes cheap shot

It seems to me that for-profit colleges have helped all of us. First of all, they meet a need for continuing edu-cation and earning degrees later in life that was ignored by most traditional colleges.

They have been the trailblazers for the online courses and distance learning pro-grams that tra-ditional colleg-es are just now discovering.

They help people move beyond the obsolete, biased SAT and ACT testing systems. In short, they treat experienced adults like experienced adults.

They also concentrate on degree programs that help people get better jobs. And lastly, being for-profit, these colleges pay taxes – and ironically support the anti-quated higher education systems they run circles around.

But perhaps, as usual, Edgar Allen Beem doesn’t care about the facts one way or another. He just saw his column as a chance to take a cheap shot at Republican Sen. Olympia Snowe because her Republican husband has been successful.

Carl M. ter WeeleFalmouth

Proud to agree with BeemEdgar Allen Beem seems to get a lot of flak so I’d

like to say that I enjoy reading his column (and I would bet all his naysayers do as well) and agree with every word he says.

The gentleman who wrote to debate Beem on progres-sive taxation I believe misses the point: of course the super-rich pay the bulk of taxes. Seeing as they make gross amounts of money, this is how it should be. It doesn’t take an economist – it’s all about perception.

Beem’s take on the potential (but hardly inevitable) economic collapse follows this endless debate on taxa-tion nicely. Perhaps such a scenario would bring out the best in most people, while the selfish fear-mongers are hunkered in their bunkers. I like his more positive prediction of the idea that people might – gasp – share with one another. But then again, I’m a liberal softie like Beem, and very proud to be one.

(ARA) — Age means different things to different people. What some might think of as “old,” oth-ers may view as “young.” To present a youthful image to the world, making adjust-ments to your appearance is key.

To project the right kind of youthful im-age, it’s important to know how to avoid

Tips for maintaining a youthful look naturallygoing too far. A common mistake is dress-ing too young in an effort to avoid looking

too old. Striking a balance between embracing cur-rent, youthful trends and adding your own style will create a more balanced look.

To give your look an age-ap-

propriate revision, get started with these steps.

• Hair. One of the first signs of age is gray hair. Hair dye is a solution that seems to help minimize the aging process, but for many people, dyeing is a costly solution. Consider trying an all natural supplement like Rise-n-Shine’s all natural Go Away Gray pills, which uses the enzyme cat-alase to bring back hair’s natural color. Catalase, produced naturally by the body during youth, slowly begins to deplete as the years wear on. Catalase breaks down hydrogen peroxide, which is naturally produced in the body and which bleaches hair gray. Go Away Gray also comes in shampoo and condi-tioner form, so fighting grays is easy for everyone.

• Clothes. Both men and women can benefit from bringing a bit of modernity into their wardrobes. It isn’t necessary to pore over fashion magazines and cultivate an eye for haute couture. Seek fresh takes on items that never go out of style, such as a button down in the latest color trend. Don’t go for too much embellishment, as it can look overdone. Fits and cuts change as years pass, and items as simple as white T-shirts can look outdated just by having an older style collar. When shopping, don’t be afraid to ask questions; many stores offer complimentary personal shop-ping services that can help in the quest to look younger.

• Accessories. Clothes provide a palette, but accessories add interest. It’s extremely easy to fall into the trap of buying items that are too juvenile, but it’s just as easy to

pick up items that age your look. Acces-sories that are all about function, with no thought given to style, are a quick way to look older, but frivolous details like bows, ruffles, whimsical prints and tons of pock-ets take things in the other direction. Look for middle ground in sleek, understated items made with quality materials. For a fun yet classy look, rely on accessories to add a pop of color, rather than using them to make a big statement.

• Skin. Your face is the first thing people notice about you, but it is also the body part most prone to the aging process. A good skin care regimen is important, of course, but having an extra helper to main-tain the look of skin is ideal. By taking a skin-supporting supplement like Wrinkle Remedy, the facial area can begin to look youthful again. Wrinkle Remedy contains important nutrients and antioxidants (such as collagen, reservatrol and alpha lipoic acid) which all help in maintaining a natu-ral, youthful look. Another way to refresh skin’s appearance is to adopt a new beauty routine. Less really is more when it comes to achieving a natural, youthful look. Stop by a makeup counter and ask for sugges-tions — or even a makeover — that will be the perfect finishing touch.

It has been said that age is all about at-titude. While that remains true, appearance also conveys attitude, so show everyone that looks are not only skin deep. For more information about natural supple-ments that support a youthful, natural ap-pearance, visit www.wakeupontime.com.

Scarborough sizzles in opener, shocks Windham(Ed. Note: For the full version

of this story with additional pho-tos and a box score, please visit theforecaster.net)By Michael Hoffer

SCARBOROUGH — It’s time to believe in the Scarborough football team.

While the Red Storm was the feel-good story of the 2010 season, winning eight times and reaching the playoffs for the first time at the Class A level, its suc-cess came largely at the hands of a York County schedule.

Friday night, in the 2011 opener, Scarborough welcomed a Windham squad which won the Class A championship in 2009 and entered this fall as one of the favorites to capture another title.

Opening night belonged to the hosts, however, as the Red Storm emphatically announced it came to win. With an impres-sive opening drive, it never let up from there in a 21-6 victory over the Eagles behind a sensational individual performance from se-nior Scott Thibeault, who rushed for a whopping 274 yards on 28 carries, with two TDs, in his first game as a tailback.

“We know we can compete at this level,” Thibeault said. “Our senior class is hungry for more. We worked hard all offseason. The talk about Windham re-ally helped us. We heard it. We worked very hard and really wanted to come and show ev-erybody. I’m really happy. It’s good to get the first game out of the way.”

Thibeault timeThibeault and his teammates,

under the guidance of first-year coach Lance Johnson, made the jump into contention last fall, winning eight games (four fewer than they had in their previous seven Class A seasons combined) before going down to a 21-14 loss at Cheverus in the semifinals.

Windham struggled in its title defense, but peaked late and also put a scare into the eventual champions before losing, 34-27, in the quarterfinals, winding up 4-5.

This year, both teams are expected to contend, but the Eagles were getting most of the preseason publicity.

Friday night, the Red Storm delivered a haymaker to start the game and never let up.

After Windham won the open-ing toss but deferred possession to the second half, Scarborough drove 71 yards in just five plays to take the lead for good.

Starting at the 29, the Red Storm set the tone immediately

when Thibeault took a pitch and found a big hole to his right. He wasn’t stopped until he reached Windham’s 35, a 36-yard pickup.

After Thibeault gained five yards on his next carry, he broke free for 24, setting up a first-and-goal at the 6. After junior quarterback Dillon Russo found classmate Merrick Madden for

five yards through the air, Russo capped the drive with a one-yard burst. Junior Greg Viola kicked the extra point and Scarborough had a quick 7-0 advantage, just two minutes, 11 seconds in.

“It was huge to come out (like that),” Thibeault said. “We had confidence, but it’s different to put it into plays. That helped get

us going. We were confident the rest of the game and that carried through.”

Despite ample opportunities on both sides, the score remained 7-0 until late in the first half.

The Eagles took over at their 29 with 1:37 to go in the half, but two plays later, quarterback TD O’Brien threw a pass that Madden

intercepted and returned to the Windham 39.

One play later, Thibeault made the Eagles pay.

With 55.7 seconds showing, Thibeault broke through on the left side and outran the pur-suit to paydirt. Viola added the extra point and it was 14-0 Scarborough.

After senior captain Kellen Smith intercepted O’Brien on the next Windham series, the Red Storm looked to add more points before the break. A 17-yard pass from Russo to McCann put the ball at the 3. The hosts appeared to have time to run one more play, but Johnson sent Viola out to attempt a 20-yard field goal. The kick was no good, wide left, and the game remained 14-0 at the break.

Scarborough’s bruising rushing attack (Thibeault had 16 carries for 169 yards and a TD) and timely passing led to a 259-122 edge in yardage in the first 24 minutes, but the Red Storm hadn’t delivered the knockout punch and at the start of the third quarter, the visitors got right back in the game.

Windham started at its 31 and drove 69 yards in 10 plays and four minutes, 51 seconds to make things interesting as junior Todd Allen ran four yards for a TD. Nolan Allen’s

By Michael HofferThe 2011 fall sports season be-

gan with a flourish last weekend and there figures to be plenty of drama to come. Here’s a glimpse at what you might have missed:

FootballWhile Scarborough’s football

team was getting off to a ban-ner start (please see story), Cape Elizabeth and South Portland weren’t as fortunate.

The Capers went to Wells Fri-day, the site of a 40-point playoff loss a year ago, and gave the War-riors a mighty scare before falling, 14-6. Junior Connor Maguire threw a long TD pass to Billy Brooks to put Cape Elizabeth on top in the fourth quarter, but the hosts answered with two scores to drop the Capers to 0-1.

column Friday when it hosts rival York.

The Red Riots went to defend-ing Class A champion Cheverus Saturday afternoon and stunned the Stags for a half. A 66-yard scoring pass from Jordan Muller to Logan Gaddar put South Port-land up, 7-3, and a short TD run from senior Joey DiBiase had the Red Riots within 17-14 at half-time, but Cheverus erupted for 42 second half points, while South Portland could only manage seven (on a 6-yard DiBiase TD run) and the Stags rolled, 59-21.

“We’ve got some kids who can make plays,” Red Riots’ coach Steve Stinson said. “We’re in a process this year. We have to make sure we stay together. This team has the potential to get bet-ter every week and take advantage of our opportunities. We had good looks in the pass game. We would have liked to run more early. We weren’t able to establish it.

“Physically, I don’t feel coming out of this loss that we couldn’t

stand up to them. Three or four years ago, we couldn’t even stand up to a good team. We just made too many fundamental mistakes.”

South Portland plays its home opener Friday night against Thornton Academy (1-0 after a

surprise 20-6 victory over Bonny Eagle).

“We have Thornton coming to town,” Stinson said. “We’re see-ing a good level of talent and that can only make us better.”

Boys’ soccerTwo of the top contenders in

Western Class A, Scarborough and South Portland, met in the season opener Saturday. The host Red Storm emerged victorious, 2-0, behind goals from Charlie Mader and Austin Downing. Scarborough improved to 2-0 Tuesday after a 5-0 win at Marshwood (Down-ing scored twice more). The Red Storm were at Gorham Thursday and host Portland Tuesday of next week as its early gauntlet continues.

The Red Riots balanced their record at 1-1 Tuesday after a 4-0 victory at Massabesic (senior Nem Kaurin scored twice). South Port-land had its home opener Thurs-day against Biddeford and hosts

extra point was blocked, however, leaving the score Scarborough, 14-6.

After a pair of defensive stands, the Red Storm got some breathing room in the fourth quarter.

A 15-yard punt return by Madden set the Red Storm up at the Windham 37. Runs of three and 15 yards by Thibeault then set the stage for the back-breaking touchdown.

With 7:14 remaining, Thibeault broke

free, shook two tackles and wound up in the end zone. Viola’s point-after made it 21-6 and essentially broke the Eagles’ will.

Windham’s last-ditch drive ended in Scarborough territory, when, on fourth-and-1 from the 20, O’Brien was thrown for a 3-yard loss by (who else?) Thibeault.

The hosts ran out the final 5 minutes, 22 seconds and celebrated its unexpected and emphatic 21-6 triumph.

“It’s a big win for us,” said Johnson. “I was very nervous about Windham. They looked good on film. They’re big up front

and there was a lot of talk about our bigs not being to able to matchup to their bigs. It was very competitive up front. We con-trolled the line of scrimmage, especially when we had to at the end. We did what we had to do. Our guys work hard in the weight room and with conditioning, and it showed tonight.”

Thibeault absolutely stole the show with his career (to date) effort. What made it even more impressive was that it was the standout’s first game at tailback (moving over from receiver to fullback and then to the feature spot).

“The offensive line just worked incred-ibly hard,” Thibeault said. “They got every assignment down. I just follow them to wherever I run. It’s practice. Coach always teaches me to read blocks and get behind the blockers and run. I loved fullback. You hit someone every play as hard as you can, but this is more open running.”

“We call (Scott) the ‘Bulldog,’” said Johnson. “He’s a great kid. No one’s

worked harder than him. He deserves it.”Russo was also impressive on the night,

rushing for 49 yards and a TD on 10 carries and completing 6-of-10 passes for 59 yards.

Scarborough finished with a 396-237 edge in total yardage.

Next upLife won’t get easier for the Red Storm,

who go to Sanford (which is coming off a 49-30 win over Biddeford). Scarborough then faces Biddeford before running the gauntlet of top contenders.

After the opening night win, the sky’s the limit.

“Sanford is much improved,” Johnson said. “Then we have Biddeford. Then we go on a tough stretch, Bonny Eagle, Cheverus, Deering, (Thornton Academy). We’re going to play the big boys.”

It looks like Scarborough is up to the task.

Willard Squarefrom page 3

councilors were inclined to keep the re-striction in place, despite the Planning Board’s desire to remove it.

But Councilors Blake, Livingston and Patti Smith all argued that market forces should determine the use of space, not the city.

Blake, a property manager, said property owners would face an addi-tional burden when trying to fill their buildings.

“(Vacancy rates) are incredibly high,” he said. “They’re higher for commer-

cial than residential. We’re putting property owners in a position where they could expend considerable funds trying to rent a first floor unit that isn’t rentable.”

Councilor Maxine Beecher was origi-nally inclined to keep the restriction in place, saying a waiver provision is enough property-owner protection. But she changed her mind after Planning Director Tex Haeuser explained the Planning Board’s position.

Haeuser said several residents believe the commercial requirement would lead to too much commercial activity in the square.

Beecher’s turnaround frustrated Councilor Tom Coward, who called the change a “wholesale revision” to the ordinance.

“I really resent this whole process running away from us,” Coward said. “My fear at the time (of the moratori-um) was this would get out of hand and this is exactly what I was afraid of.”

The amendment passed 4-3 vote, with Coward, Hughes and Mayor Rosemarie De Angelis opposed.

The new zoning rules also would have required commercial property owners to install bike racks, but coun-cilors put off that regulation to examine a citywide bike policy.

The ordinance passed first reading 5-2, with Hughes and De Angelis op-posed. Final action on the changes is slated for Sept. 19.

The moratorium on new construction in the square was also extended by 30 days to give the council time to conduct final votes on the zoning and for the revised rules to take effect.

Other businessThe council also reappropriated

$20,000 in federal grant money for low-income neighborhoods towards the purchase of a trailer that is now used as a social services resource hub in the

Redbank and Brickhill area.Originally, the resource hub was go-

ing to be established in an unused por-table classroom owned by the School Department. But Gailey said that class-room was in a condition to be reused.

Instead, the city has been renting a trailer for $430 a month, but that rent increased to $461 a month in July. Gailey said the city could save $2,000 over the next three years by buying the trailer for $14,600.

Gailey said the city plans to connect the trailer to the city’s sewer and water systems, so waste will not have to be pumped out and water will not have to be trucked in.

Another $10,000 in grants was reap-propriated to fix the basketball court in LeGere Park on Waterman Drive.

Councilors also approved the South Portland-Cape Elizabeth Rotary’s re-quest to bring a “Winter Fest” to Mill Creek Park in February 2012.

The rotary is also donating a portable ice skating shelter at Mill Creek Pond, but Rotarian Dan Mooers said he is unsure whether the shelter will be ready for this skating season.Randy Billings can be reached at 781-3661 ext. 1oo or [email protected]. Follow him on Twitter: @

have returned their papers and will be on the November ballot.

Swift-Kayatta has taken out petitions for re-election, but had not returned them as of early Wednesday afternoon.

Town Clerk Debra Lane said she has seen more filing activity near the deadline within the last few years than in the past.

“It’s as if people wait to see who turns their papers in and then make a decision,” Lane said.

And she also said it is rare, but not

unheard of, to have members of the Town Council or School Board run for the other board.

“It doesn’t happen often because each board attracts different people and deals with different agendas,” she said. “Many times they just don’t cross over.”

Nomination papers were made avail-able Aug. 1 and residents have until 4 p.m. on Sept. 9 at 4 p.m. to return them to the clerk’s office at Town Hall.

Election Day is Tuesday, Nov. 8.Amy Anderson can be reached at 781-3661 ext. 110 or [email protected]. Follow her on Twitter: @

Scarboroughfrom page 1


Thurlow suggested a requirement that businesses that sell fireworks be required to install sprinkler systems, and all the coun-cilors who spoke on the issue said they sup-ported that restriction. Town Manager Tom Hall said he already has had three inquiries from prospective fireworks dealers.

If the town is to follow the letter of the new law, the Ordinance Committee has its work cut out for it, Councilor Michael Wood said.

He said Scarborough’s noise ordinance is vague, to allow easy enforcement without the need for decibel detectors or police training, so the committee may have to find a way to allow the crackle, whistle and boom of fireworks without making the law completely obsolete.

Councilors on Monday also heard a status report from Planning Director Dan Bacon about road work resulting from the Payne Road West Traffic Study.

As a result of the study two years ago, Bacon said the town sought ways to ease traffic flow on the residential portion of Payne Road, diverting that traffic to Route 1 through the neighborhoods of Scarborough.

Four plans were approved, one of which was the recently completed renovation of the intersection of Haigis Parkway and Route 1, which included the addition of turning lanes and road medians.

Plans for reworking Dunstan Corner are in the final design phase, and efforts to fol-low through on Payne Road traffic calming that began in fall of 2010 with the removal of a passing zone will continue this fall with the construction of landscaped medians on a stretch of the road near Cabela’s.

Bacon also introduced the council to Rand Ardell, a designer with South Portland’s Ardell Simmons, who has been working with Bacon, Hall and the Scarborough Economic Development Corp. on the fourth plan: signage.

The goal is not only to help direct traffic away from Payne Road, but to identify and strengthen the identity of Scarborough’s neighborhoods and draw people to the towns attractions, such as its marshes and beaches.

“The town has a great opportunity to in-fluence drivers, especially ones from away,” Ardell said.

Better signs have been one of the most frequent suggestions from residents for improving the town, Hall said. People complain that there aren’t enough signs di-recting traffic and helping tourists, or even residents, find their way around.

Ardell showed mock-ups of the sign design he and the others had been working on: a sleek, vertical, modular sign featuring sans-serif typography and a silhouette of tall marsh grass and cattails growing from

a subtle, white wedge designed to evoke the sloping sand at Scarborough’s beaches.

The signs are rust-colored and grey, and feature the town’s name, a neighborhood name if applicable, and simple directional arrows and text with easy-to-understand place names.

Though he joined the rest of the council-ors in supporting the work, Wood struggled with the iconography of the marsh on the signs, wondering whether it would be too much to have another image associated with the town. He said the town’s official crest and logos from its 300th and 350th an-niversaries are already established images, and that another may cause confusion about the town’s brand.

But Hall and Ardell stressed that the signs are not meant ot be an official town logo, rather they are designed to be evocative of the town as a whole. The marsh, Hall said, played a role in every town crest or logo.

“If you have to pick one iconic image of Scarborough, it’s the marsh,” Ardell said.

Plans are also in the works to design new “gateway” signs at Scarborough’s borders, which would be similar to the directional signs in an effort to build a town brand.

“When you leave from somewhere and arrive here, it’s important to know: You’re in Scarborough,” Wood said.

9/11from page 1


had another to set up later in the evening. He paced back and forth while he spoke, smoking cigarettes, nursing a glass of wine and stirring a long-simmering Italian gravy.

“It’s nothing I had any control over,” he said about his role in the 9/11 narrative. “It’s something that happened to me. I can’t change it. I’m not making any money on it. If you’re interested, I’ll tell you, but I don’t walk around like I’m a celebrity.”

On that day, around 5 a.m., Atta and Al-Omari approached the USAir counter with their tickets for Flight 5930 to Boston Logan International Airport. There they would connect to American Airlines Flight 11 to Los Angeles.

Tuohey said he felt uneasy about Atta, who seemed intense and angry.

“If this doesn’t look like an Arab terrorist, no one does,” he said he thought to himself. Worried he was stereotyping the customer, he asked the routine security questions and gave Atta and Al-Omari their boarding passes.

A new airline policy would have allowed Tuohey to give the two men boarding passes for both flights, but he didn’t like the idea of giving customers a free pass through security. He set the two up for Portland clearance, but informed them they’d have to go through security again in Boston.

Atta didn’t like it, Tuohey said, but he eventually gave up and boarded.

“He seemed like an angry person, but I just chalked that up to being 5:30 a.m.,” he said. “There aren’t many cheery people that early, I’m afraid.”

When Flight 11 flew into the North Tow-er of the World Trade Center, Tuohey said he thought, “’Oh my god. I put a couple guys on that plane.’”

Once the second tower was hit, though, he said he knew it was an attack, and assumed Atta and Al-Omari had been in-volved. As was later confirmed, Atta was the mastermind of the 9/11 plot, and likely flew Flight 11 into the North Tower.

Tuohey was later interviewed by the FBI and the 9/11 Commission. He flew under the radar for three years until the 9/11 Com-mission Report, with his name in it, was re-leased. That’s when the phone calls began. CNN was first. Later he was interviewed by Oprah Winfrey on her TV show.

“Oprah’s my homegirl,” Tuohey said as he showed off a picture of the TV star with him and his wife.

In the immediate aftermath of the at-tacks, Tuohey said he sobbed along with the rest of the country, glued to his TV set. Later he consulted several psychologists, to deal with the guilt he felt about not be-ing able to do anything. He started doing what a psychologist would later tell him was “disassociating” – disconnecting from his surroundings and snapping back into place with no concept of how much time had passed.

“I’d pull into my driveway, and without realizing it I’d put my car into park and just sit there, for 20 minutes, staring,” he said. “Same with the shower. I’d get in and think I was there for five minutes, but soon I’d realize the water had gone cold and I was there for 30, 35 minutes. I was gone.”

Tuohey has since recovered, but he said he doesn’t plan to watch any of the decen-nial news coverage of the attacks. He said he can’t stand the idea of watching video of victims jumping out of the Twin Tow-ers, falling to their deaths. While he’s now an atheist, Tuohey was raised Catholic, and said he knows people trapped in the towers were faced with an impossible choice.

“Those people were wrestling for their souls,” he said. “Do they burn to death or do they jump?”

He’s also annoyed that 10 years later, the feeling of unity the country felt after 9/11 – and again a few months ago when U.S. Navy SEALs killed Osama bin Laden – hasn’t stuck. He’s annoyed, too, by the role religion plays in politics. People, especially politicians, can’t put aside their differences and “work for the greater good,” he said.

But that doesn’t mean Tuohey is a model for some post-9/11 embrace of diversity. He considers himself a “pragmatic liberal” – he’s against the wars, decried President George W. Bush’s tax cuts and consid-ers the 1970 Kent State shootings one of America’s great tragedies – but since the attacks, he said, he’s become less “politi-cally correct,” and is suspicious of Muslims.

“They’re not to be trusted in the least bit,” he said. “Look at the examples, of our ‘friends’ in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iraq. With friends like that, you don’t need en-emies. ... I wouldn’t go out of my way to

be unkind to (Muslims in the U.S.), but I won’t deal with them. It’s all based on fic-tion. Religion is just fiction.”

But Tuohey doesn’t normally get into all that; he said he stays away from politics. He retired in 2004, after 37 years with the airline. He didn’t plan to stop working, but said the industry sort of collapsed around him after 9/11.

Nowadays, he keeps to himself. He’s got a garden behind his clean, modern two-sto-ry home, where he grows tomatoes, onions and lettuce. He travels a bit with his wife, Maureen, who is still a flight attendant for US Airways. He likes to barbecue and to watch football.

Tuohey said he hopes Sept. 11 – declared “Patriot Day” just months after the 2001 at-tacks – doesn’t become the kind of holiday where people forget the somber nature of

the day, simply seeing it as a day off from work. He said it should be a solemn day, to remember the people who died in New York City, Washington, D.C., and Shanks-ville, Pa.

He said it was one of the many tragedies that have befallen the United States, both domestic and foreign, and that we should keep it in perspective without becoming hysterical.

“Keep it solemn. If you’re religious, say your prayers,” he said. “Me? I’m going to avoid television. I’m going to have a nice lunch, and if it’s a nice day, I’ll maybe have a little cookout on my back deck, a nice glass of wine and a few smokes.”

“I’m gonna watch football,” he said.Mario Moretto can be reached at 781-3661 ext. 106 or

Police appfrom page 1


“We’ve looked at trends coming around the country and have been fortunate enough to bring those trends to Maine,” he said. “We looked at this app and said, ‘This is something that kind of wraps all the other (media outlets) all into one stop, and adds more.’”

The app was created by WiredBlue, a Massachusetts-based company founded by Peter Olson, a police detective in Peabody, Mass.

“Corporate America is using apps to provide their customers with better service and accessibility. Progressive police de-partments are adopting the MyPD app for the same reasons,” Olson said in a news release.

Available for free on the iPhone and An-droid operating systems, the app includes functions to leave a tip, commend an of-ficer, and submit general questions or feed-back. It also has links to the department’s website, and a contact list including phone numbers and extensions for several officers.

If they choose to, Simonds said the department could use MyPD to survey residents, allowing officers to get closer to the pulse of South Portland.

“There are these little extras that come with taking advantage of smartphones,” Simonds said. “For example, we have such a large student population that has just

rolled back into the city. So many of them are on Android or iPhones, and this may be a better way to reach out to that segment of the community.”

When a user submits a tip using MyPD, an email with the information provided is sent to several officers and dispatchers, many of whom carry smartphones allowing them access to email while on patrol.

In an unannounced test, officers re-sponded within 20 minutes to an inquiry made by a reporter.

While this may be the newest online venture for area police, it’s by no means the first.

South Portland launched its online crime reporting system last year. Like MyPD, online crime reporting is for non-emergency reports and reports for which there are no known suspects. Simonds said it’s been used for between 200 and 300 reports.

South Portland’s and Scarborough’s po-lice departments are both on Facebook, and while South Portland does not use Twitter – Simonds said it’s something the depart-ment is looking into – Scarborough does, albeit rarely. The Cape Elizabeth Police Department has no social media presence, but there is a Facebook fan site.
