DOVER – The City of Dover, New

Hampshire is in the initial stages of developing a new chapter of the existing Master Plan, the Stewardship of Re-sources chapter. This new chapter will combine a range of “resources” that are the criti-cal components of what helps make Dover a unique place. Specifically, the Stewardship of Resources chapter will address the following topics: energy, natural resources, historic and cultural resources, coastal management, natural hazards and social capital.

When completed, the result will not just be a simple inventory of resources, but

rather a comprehensive analy-sis of what currently exist and how the community should management these resources.

The City of Dover com-pleted a community wide vi-sioning process as part of its comprehensive master plan-ning process in 2012. Dover’s Master Plan can be found online at www.dover.nh.gov. Topics to be addressed in the Stewardship of Resources chap-ter were identified during the visioning process. Topics were identified of such importance that they are found across five of the eight overarching vision themes upon which the Vision Chapter is based. These themes are: People and Community;

Downtown; Municipal Gov-ernment and School Services; Open Space and Recreation; Sustainability.

After reviewing requests for proposal, the City hired a New Hampshire-based con-sultant team led by Resilience Planning and Design to assist with the Vision Chapter. “The team has a broad mix of skills and experience that will allow them to help Dover generate this unique and critical part of the Master Plan,” said Dave Carpenter, Dover’s Communi-ty Development Planner.

To oversee the project, a steering committee has been appointed by the Planning Board. The committee will pro-vide input to the consultants and help integrate their work into the comprehensive master planning process. The steer-ing committee is comprised of members from existing City boards and commissions, such as the Energy and Heritage commissions, as well as Dover citizens who expressed an in-terest in serving.

“Outreach and engage-ment are critical components of this project,” said Assistant

City Manager Christopher Parker. “Strategies for gather-ing public input that the steer-ing committee will consider include booths at community events, social media, and con-necting with groups that are sometimes underrepresented, such as seniors and school chil-dren.”

At the conclusion of the project, a written report will be prepared that includes an ac-counting of the existing condi-tion of each resource as well as recommended goals and tasks targeting the management of each resource. Once completed, the report will be presented to the Planning Board and City Council through a public hear-ing process with the intent of

formally becoming the first Stewardship of Resources chap-ter of the Master Plan. The City hopes to begin the adoption process during the fall of 2016.

An important part of the process will be outreach efforts to obtain citizen input. Such outreach will include, but not be limited to, use of social media and public meetings. You can follow the status of this project by at www.dover.nh.gov, on Twitter @DoverNHPlanning and find the Planning Depart-ment on Facebook at www.facebook.com/DoverNHPlan-ning.

If interested in learning more about the project, con-tact Dave Carpenter, Commu-nity Development Planner, at [email protected] or at 603-516-6008.

The History Book Group will meet at 4 p.m. at The Tuck Museum, 40 Park Avenue, Hampton. All are welcome. As always, there will be a treat that is representative of the topic.

PORTSMOUTH -Changing the time a race

will be held is never an easy de-cision, but the organizers of the 7th Annual St. Paddy’s “April Fool’s” Five Miler felt was nec-essary this year.

“We had always held our race in mid-March around St. Patrick’s day, but we always tended to battle very wintry weather,” acknowledges Race Director Todd Hanson. “With that in mind we decided to push this year’s race back a couple weeks to increase the likelihood we would catch a break with Mother Nature.”

New Heights Execu-tive Director Tracey Tucker agrees, noting that changing the timing of this year’s race to April 3 enables them to slightly re-envision its theme.

“We have added a fun April Fool’s Day theme to the race, which can only enhance the experience for partici-pants,” she said. “This is a race anyone—a fast runner or an entire family—can enjoy.”

According to New Heights’ Janice Hastings, the stakes for a successful are high,

as net proceeds support pro-gramming and provide schol-arships to kids with limited fi-nancial means. “When you run for New Heights, you positively impact the lives of kids,” she adds.

Noting the race commit-tee is primarily composed of volunteers, Hanson says he be-lieves this year’s lack of snow will motivate many to register in the final days leading up to the race on Sunday, April 3.

“Of course, we get a few inches of snow now,” he laughed. “However, we are in

far better shape than in recent years. Pushing back the date was a smart move.”

Returning race sponsors are Paddy’s American Grille, Marshall’s Event Rental, Ken-nebunk Savings Bank, Da-tarisk, Whole Life Healthcare, Two International, Group, Tradeport Counseling, CGI Business Solutions, Kumon of Portsmouth, Underwood En-gineers, Pierce Atwood, and Newmarket International.

The 7th Annual St. Pad-dy’s “April Fool’s” Five Miler will take place at 10:30 a.m. on Sunday, April 3, at Paddy’s American Grille at the Pease Tradeport in Portsmouth. Race perks include food, hot soups and beer to participants (age 21 & up). Registration is $30. Race day registration will be available on site. Runners may register until April 2 at www.paddysfivemiler.com, or call 603-422-8235.

Great Part-Time Jobs For RetireesUpon retiring, many

newly minted retirees find themselves looking for ways to fill their free time. Hobbies may not take up too much time, and travel can stretch retirees’ budgets.

One way that retirees can make great use of their free time and make a little extra money is to find part-time employment. Part-time jobs can help retirees main-tain their connections with their communities, whether it’s their professional com-munity or the community in which they live, while also providing a sense of purpose. Retirees interesting in find-ing part-time work may want to consider the following jobs.

• Consulting work: Many retirees have long ré-sumés, and that experience is still valuable even after retirement. Consulting firms often hire experienced busi-nesspeople on a project or

contract basis, which can be great opportunities for retirees to fill their time and make siz-able amounts of money without having to commit to long-term employment.

• Teaching: Retirees can also put their professional ex-perience to work in the class-room. Inquire about teaching opportunities at a nearby uni-versity or even the local high school. Such opportunities may only be available on a volunteer basis, but some might pay part-time salaries or small stipends. Either way, many retirees find that working with young people helps them stay young, and passing on lessons learned to younger generations can pro-vide a strong sense of purpose.

• Seasonal work: Seasonal work is another great way for retirees to fill their time and make a little extra money along the way. Come the holiday season, retirees should have no trouble finding seasonal

retail work at their local malls or shopping centers. In warmer months, retirees may find seasonal employment at area beaches, golf courses or parks.

• Sports teams: Retirees who live in cities with profes-sional sports teams may be able to find work with their favorite franchise. Professional sports franchises often rely on retir-ees to staff in-game positions like ushers and concessions employees, and some may even hire retirees to greet fans. While the pay might not be great, such positions are ideal for retirees who happen to be big sports fans.

• Crafts: Retirees with a love of crafting can turn their hobby into income. For exam-ple, Etsy.com makes it easy for creative entrepreneurs to post their creations and sell them to buyers all over the globe. Sell-ers often dictate how quickly they can make and ship prod-ucts, so retirees need not feel

worried about being rushed.Many retirees still work

even after calling it a career, and opportunities abound for men and women looking to fill their time and make a little extra money along the way.

“A wide variety of items come to the Museum as dona-tions, and we sometimes find items at the Museum that have not been cataloged,” said Carol. “I need to discover as much as I can about each item – some-times starting with what it is, followed by when and where it was made, and by whom. I like to think of what I do as detec-tive work.”

“After working with Carol for a few weeks and seeing her attention to detail, I knew that cataloger was the perfect job for her,” said Betty Moore, Tuck Museum Director. “Carol stud-ies each item carefully in order to unlock the mysteries it holds. I know when Carol does a job it will be done to perfection.”

There are a number of steps to cataloging an item, be-ginning with assigning the item a number and deciding which category it belongs in.

Currently Tuck Museum has some 10,000 objects, pho-tographs, records and manu-scripts in its collection. In addi-tion to Carol, Betty and Mary Ertl catalog items. The Tuck

Carol started volunteering at the Museum in 2005 following a career as a software engineer for Liberty Mutual, which also required strict attention to detail. Her first job at the Museum was to help edit a book of Hampton post cards that Betty and Eliza-beth Aykroyd, a member of the Collection Committee, were de-veloping.

PORTSMOUTH -Jazz, folk, classical music,

beat poetry, and innovative songwriting come together in the first Fugue Mill Music Festival, an all day music and art festival at Seacoast Reper-tory Theatre from 1-8 p.m. on Sunday, April 3.

The Fugue Mill Music Festival is the brainchild of Mark Shilansky, the NH native pianist/composer who formed the band Fugue Mill in 2012. The group is designed to mix the original jazz music and im-provisation that is Shilansky’s stock-in-trade with folk music traditions such as Bluegrass and Celtic, and adaptations of Classical music. The group’s eponymous debut was released in 2013 and was praised by the Boston Globe’s Jon Garelick as “an especially fresh and inven-tive jazz album.”

It is a little-known fact that Shilansky got some of his start as a bandleader while music directing shows at Sea-coast Repertory Theatre in the early 90’s, working on such pro-ductions as “Evita”, “Babes in Toyland”, and “Annie.” Even in those days he wondered what it would be like to play music on stage at this unique venue, with its acoustical possibilities and intimate proximity to the audi-

ence. With this festival Shilan-

sky’s idea has become a reality, with a line-up of artists whose diverse and inclusive approach to music-making correspond to the eclecticism of the band Fugue Mill, and who are also some of Shilansky’s and the re-gion’s favorite musicians.

From the Jazz and Fusion of NH native, guitarist Nick Grondin’s quintet, to the art songs and arias of soprano Kathleen Flynn, to original Beat Poetry with instrumen-tal accompaniment created by some of Seacoast Rep’s own art-ists, to the jazzy originals and covers of local favorites trum-peter Chris Klaxton and vo-calist Taylor O’Donnell, to the breathtaking jazzy/folky music of our special guest artist: Uni-versal Music/Classics record-ing artist Becca Stevens, there is something for everyone on this day-long concert.

In addition, during main

PORTSMOUTH -The New Hampshire Art

Association will present “Water and Light”, watercolors by Kimberly Meuse and black and white photographs by Michael Sterling at the Robert Lincoln Levy East Gallery for the month of April.

Meuse, watercolor artist, and Sterling, fine art photog-rapher, are collaborating in an exhibition of contrasting work that celebrates the joy of two very different types of visual expression: watercolor art and black-and-white photography. Different explorations in color and black & white textures and moods; but both capturing the exquisite lines, form, and reflec-tions of water, light, and shapes.

Meuse is a national ac-claimed still life watercolorist who recently returned to New Hampshire after a 30-year ab-sence. Her unique technique combines sumptuous detail with extraordinary mastery of color. The results are watercolor works that are extremely realis-tic and unusual for the medium. Kimberly takes watercolor painting beyond traditional loose methodologies to create works that defy the confines of representational painting and surmount the challenges inher-ent in water-based media. The

results are exquisitely deep, rich paintings that have become a career-long passion.

Meuse’s work has been ex-hibited in major galleries in New York City, Boston, and New Or-leans as well as smaller venues in New Hampshire, California, Connecticut, and Rhode Island. A recipient of many awards and honors. She conducts work-shops to share her years of ex-perience working in watercolor and dedicates her talents to ben-efit charitable organizations.

Sterling is a vice president of the New Hampshire Society of Photographic Artists. He is also a juried member of the New Hampshire Art Association and was previously on its board. He studied photography at The New School and International Center for Photography, both in New York City, and the New Hampshire Institute of Art in Manchester.

He has exhibited in numer-ous solo and juried group shows, locally and in Washington, DC. He is a contributing photogra-pher to The Sound newspaper, and has been published in mag-azines and travel brochures. He takes portraits for families and small businesses; covers local events, such as TEDx Pisca-taqua, the New Hampshire Film Festival, Fashion’s Night Out, and the Boston-Portsmouth Air Shows. His work is in the per-manent collections of the Exeter Chamber of Commerce and Optima Bank and Trust.

Sterling’s favorite subjects include landscapes, cityscapes, and unique architecture and design. He also has a special interest in creative costumed portraiture. This current exhibit is part of an ongoing project to capture black and white images of texture, light and shadow.

The show runs from March 30 through April 30 with an opening reception on April 1, 5-8 p.m. coinciding with Art Round Town. The New Hamp-shire Art Association is located at the Robert Lincoln Levy Gal-lery, 136 State St., Portsmouth. For details, call 603-431-4230, email [email protected], or visit www.nhartassoca-tion.org. This event is free and open to the public.

PORTSMOUTH - New Hampshire Theatre

Project in Portsmouth enjoyed an incredible month of com-munity support during Feb-ruary 2016. The month was highlighted with an astonish-ing donation of $7,300 from The Fabulous Find in Kittery. This community boutique has awarded over $700,000 to sea-coast nonprofits since its cre-ation in 2010, and New Hamp-shire Theatre Project is deeply grateful for this support of our youth education programming.

In February, New Hamp-shire Theatre Project received additional generous support with a $300 donation from Bob’s Clam Hut, $426 from Robert’s Maine Grill Com-munity Suppers, and a $1,750 grant from the New Hampshire State Council on the Arts to

support NHTP’s Seacoast Arts Education Initiative. NHTP artists will be working this spring in the Stratham Memo-rial School, Portsmouth’s Little Harbour School, Main Street Arts in Newfields, and other area educational programs.

March got New Hamp-shire Theatre Project off to a rocking start with $800 from the FlingFest Concert at New-market’s Stone Church, featur-ing the bands Fling and Jam Patrol.

For 28 years, New Hamp-shire Theatre Project has pro-vided youth and adults the opportunity to experience self-discovery and growth through the art and process of theatre. This mission is only possible because of the continued gen-erosity and support of the sea-coast community.

Dear Computer Lady,How do I make a shortcut

on my desktop? I used to be able to be able to make an icon shortcut by right- clicking and getting the menu. I am unable to do that with Windows 7 How Do I do it? Judy

Dear Judy,I can give you directions

for putting a shortcut to a file on your desktop, but I will also start out by saying if you don’t have the right-click menu in Windows 7, then there is some-thing wrong with your com-puter. It should be there. These directions will work for all ver-sions of Windows. Method #1 for creating a shortcut on your

desktop: 1. Find the file (pro-gram or data) you want to make a shortcut to. 2. Right-click on the file to display the context menu. 3. In the context menu, point to “Send To” and click on, “Desktop (Create Short-cut) in the sub-menu. Method #2 for creating a shortcut on your desktop: 1. Using file ex-plorer, find the file you want to create your shortcut for. 2. Reduce the size of the file ex-plorer window, so you can also see your desktop. 3. Using the right mouse button, drag the file to your desktop. 4. When you release the right mouse button, you will have a small options menu appear. 5. Click

on “Create Shortcut” to create a shortcut to the file on your desktop. Elizabeth

Dear Computer Lady,How do I change the size

of the scroll bar in Windows 10? Thanks, Judy

Dear Judy,While it is possible to

adjust the width of the scrollbar in Windows 10, it requires that you go in and edit the registry. This is not something that I rec-ommend for the average user. If you change the wrong settings in the registry, your computer will not operate correctly, or might not even start at all. Pre-vious versions of Windows had settings for the scroll bar width in the control panel, but this is not something that Microsoft included in Windows 10. There is, however, a small, free pro-gram for windows called, Win-aero Tweaker which will work in all versions of Windows and allow you to adjust the width of your scrollbars. You can download Winaero Tweaker at www.winaero.com be careful when you download it, all the real download links are just a line of text that says, “Down-load Winaero Tweaker”. All the big green download buttons are advertisements. Once you

download the single zipped file, you will need to extract the files, then double-click to run winaerotweaker.exe. Nothing is installed on your computer, instead, it is just an interface for making changes. In the Wi-naero window, find the “Ad-vanced Appearance Settings” in the left navigation pane and click on “Scrollbars”. Then, simply move the slider in the right pane until the scrollbars are set at the width you want. Click “Apply Changes”, then restart your computer in order for the changes to take effect. Elizabeth

Dear Computer Lady,I caught a segment of

NPR today talking about Ve-rizon being slapped with a fine for using super cookies on their internet service. We use Veri-zon and I’m wondering exactly what super cookies are and most importantly, how to know if we have anything to worry about and how to it fix it, if possible? The segment didn’t go into that issue. But they seemed to indicate it was harder to not be tracked and safeguard your-self? For the record, we always delete things after using the in-ternet. Thanks! Debra

Dear Debra,

I had never heard of super cookies, so I did a little bit of research and this is what I learned. First, there is no such thing as a super cookie, it is just a term for some tracking code on your phone that privacy ad-vocates have created (probably to scare average people like you and me). Second, this track-ing code is only on Verizon’s mobile devices (Smartphones). Third, the data from this track-ing code is then used to dis-play advertisements to certain groups of customers. If I was a local daycare, for example, I might want to spend my ad-vertising dollars on people in the 20 to 40 age range who also shop in local toy stores. This allows me to only pay for ad-vertising to people who might be interested in my services. If you are using a verizon smart-phone and want to opt out of this code, you can log into your verizon app and change it in the privacy settings. Elizabeth

Wentworth-Douglass Hospital to Host Discussion on Vaccine Safety

Seacoast Dentist Recognizedwith Etherington Award

Cornerstone VNA SelectedAs Benefi ciary

Free Senior Health & Wellness Expo

DOVER -Wentworth-Douglass

Hospital is hosting a free discussion on Vaccination Myths & Misconceptions on Monday, March 28 from 6-7:30 p.m. presented by Dr. Vandana Madhavan, MD, MPH, pediatric infectious-disease specialist at Massa-chusetts General Hospital.

There are lots of stories circulating about the dark side of vaccines, including links to autism. While routine immunizations have helped to nearly eradicate many vaccine-preventable diseases, falling immunization rates in recent years are leading to a resurgence of these diseases, such as measles and whoop-ing cough.

Dr. Madhavan will dis-cuss many of the common vaccination myths and mis-conceptions, from concerns about routine childhood vaccines to doubts about the safety of flu shots. Bring your questions.

Dr. Madhavan earned her medical degree from the

University of Virginia School of Medicine in 2002. She com-pleted her pediatric residency at Massachusetts General Hos-pital for Children, followed by a pediatric infectious diseases fellowship at Boston Children’s Hospital. She has a master’s of public health degree from the Harvard School of Public Health. To register for Vacci-nation Myths & Misconcep-tions on March 28, visit www.wdhospital.com/events or call 603-740-2818.
