Lutherans look to share church facilities with Episcopalians By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — This evening Reverend Robert Hirschfeld, Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of New Hampshire, will preside at a service for the deconsecration of St. James Episcopal Church in anticipation of the building becoming the permanent home to the Boys and Girls Club of the Lakes Region, which is purchasing it. Pastor Tobias Nyatsambo said yesterday that the club will be represented at the service where its mission statement will be read. “St. James has always been about serving the community,” he said, noting that the church has hosted the longest standing pre-school program in the city and has long prepared a meal for the Salvation Army on the third Tuesday of each month. “The Boys and Girls Club will be doing what St. James has done,” he said. “For us it is exciting.” N y a t s a m b o explained that the parish hopes to enter an arrangement with the Good Shepherd Lutheran Church on Parade Road, by which the two would share worship and office spaces as well as see CHURCHes page 12

Carter charged with murdering his mother & brother By Gail OBer
THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
BELMONT — The state yesterday charged Shawn Carter, 31, with second-degree murder for allegedly causing the deaths of his mother and his older brother in their 20 Sunset Drive home this past May. Priscilla Carter, 59 and her son Timothy Carter, 39,
were found by Belmont Police “chopped” to death in the home the three shared by police on May 24 at 11 a.m. A press release issued jointly by Senior Assistant Attorney General Jeffrey Strelzin, State Police Colonel Robert Quinn and Belmont Police Chief Mark Lewandoski said the murders occurred on either May 23 or
May 24. Police had gone to the home for a well-being check after one of Priscilla Carter’s co-workers reported she hadn’t come to work that morning. For reasons unknown until late yesterday afternoon, a “be on the lookout” for (BOLO) alert had been issued for Shawn Carter and the red car
he was believed to have been driving on the day the bodies were discovered. The alert said he could possibly be armed. Carter was arrested by Tilton and N.H. State Police on Route 3 near Pirates Cove minigolf course three hours later and has been in the Belknap County House of Corrections see MURdeRs page 10

Lone survivor speaks at vigil: ‘ Bless my Hotshot crew’
PRESCOTT VALLEY, Ariz. (AP) — On a day filled with speeches from dignitaries including the vice president, the words of the lone survivor of a fire crew overrun by flames resonated deepest in an arena packed with firefighters from around the nation. A stone-faced Brendan McDonough filed onto the stage at the end of the service and offered what’s called “The Hot Shot’s Prayer,” calmly reciting the words: “For if this day on the line I should answer death’s call, Lord, bless my Hotshot crew, my family, one and all.” He concluded by telling the crowd: “Thank you, and I miss my brothers.” McDonough spoke at a memorial for the 19 members of the Prescott-based Granite Mountain Hotshots who died June 30 when a wind-fueled, out-ofcontrol fire overran them as they tried to protect a former goldmining town from the inferno. Vice President Joe Biden called them “men of uncommon valor” while thanking God see HOTSHOTS page 3

Quebec police open criminal probe of train derailment LAC-MEGANTIC, Quebec (AP) — Canadian authorities said Tuesday they have opened a criminal investigation into the fiery wreck of a runaway oil train in this small town as the death toll climbed to 15, with dozens more bodies feared buried in the burned-out ruins. Quebec police Inspector Michel Forget said investigators have “discovered elements” that have led to a criminal probe. He gave no details but ruled out terrorism. The death toll rose with the discovery of two more bodies Tuesday. About three dozen
more people were missing. The bodies that have been recovered were burned so badly they have yet to be identified. Investigators zeroed in on whether a fire on the train a few hours before the disaster set off a deadly chain of events that has raised questions about the safety of transporting oil in North America by rail instead of pipeline. The unmanned Montreal, Maine & Atlantic Railway train broke loose early Saturday and sped downhill in the darkness nearly seven miles (11 kilometers)
before jumping the tracks at 63 mph (101 kph) near the Maine border. All but one of the 73 cars were carrying oil. At least five exploded. Rail dispatchers had no chance to warn anyone during the train’s 18-minute journey because they didn’t know it was happening themselves, Transportation Safety Board officials said Tuesday. Such warning systems are not in place on secondary rail lines, said TSB manager Ed Belkaloul. The derailment and explosions destroyed see TRAIN page 10
Safety Board says S.F. bound pilots relied on automatic speed control
SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. (AP) — The pilots of Asiana Flight 214 relied on automated cockpit equipment to control the jetliner’s speed as they landed at San Francisco airport, but realized too late they were flying too low and too slow before the aircraft crashed, investigators said Tuesday. The new details were not conclusive about the cause of Saturday’s crash, but
they raised potential areas of focus: Was there a mistake made in setting the automatic speed control, did it malfunction or were the pilots not fully aware of what the plane was doing? One of the most puzzling aspects of the crash has been why the wide-body Boeing 777 jet came in far too low and slow, clipping its landing gear and then its tail on a rocky seawall just short the runway.
The crash killed two of the 307 people and injured scores of others, most not seriously. Among those injured were two flight attendants in the back of the plane, who survived despite being thrown onto the runway when the plane slammed into the seawall and the tail broke off. National Transportation Safety Board chairman Deborah Hersman said the see AIRPLANE page 6
3 women rescued from decade long kidnappings thank public for support CLEVELAND (AP) — Stylish and smiling, three women allegedly held captive in a Cleveland home for a decade offered thanks on YouTube for emotional and financial backing they’ve received since going “through hell and back.” From Amanda Berry, 27: “I want every-
one to know how happy I am to be home, with my family, my friends,” she said. “I would say ‘thank you’ for the support,” said a soft-spoken Gina DeJesus, 23, in response to prompting from a narrator. And from Michelle Knight, 32, who wasn’t a familiar face on a milk carton
around town like the other two, came a sometimes halting yet defiant reading of a statement. “I may have been through hell and back, but I am strong enough to walk through hell with a smile on my face and with my see 3 WOMEN page 12

Friend of Hernandez said to have heard former Patriot admit firing fatal shots ATTLEBORO, Mass. (AP) — A man linked to the murder case against former New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez told police Hernandez admitted firing the fatal shots, and a vehicle wanted in a double killing in Boston a year before had been rented in Hernandez’s name, according to documents filed Tuesday in Florida that provide the most damning evidence yet against the star athlete. The documents say Hernandez associate Carlos Ortiz told Massachusetts investigators that another man, Ernest Wallace, said Hernandez admitted shooting semi-pro football player Odin Lloyd in an industrial park near Hernandez’s home in North Attleborough. The documents were filed in court by the Miramar, Fla., police department to justify a search of Wallace’s home in that city. The documents also say that while investigating Lloyd’s killing, police did searches in Hernandez’s hometown, Bristol, Conn., that turned up a vehicle wanted in connection with a July 2012 double homicide in Boston. Police say the vehicle had been rented in Hernandez’s name. Hernandez has pleaded not guilty in Lloyd’s killing. His legal team did not return email messages Tuesday. Prosecutors say Hernandez, Wallace and another man drove with Lloyd to an industrial park where
from preceding page that one member of the crew survived unhurt. “There’s an old saying: All men are created equal, and then a few became firefighters,” Biden said. “Thank God for you all. Thank God for your willingness to take the risks you do.” The event was marked by an outpouring of support from firefighters from across the country, who traveled to the Prescott area to honor their fallen brethren. They talked about how firefighters are accustomed to answering the call of duty when the alarm sounds and sends them into harm’s way, whether it’s a fire in a forest, house or apartment. And they noted that the same can be said when a fellow firefighter dies. “When you hear of a death, especially a group of firefighters, and there’s 19 that we’re here to mourn, there’s no question that at the drop of a hat you do what you can to go and support the fire service and their families,” said Capt. Steve Brown of the Rancho Cucamonga, who brought 17 others in his department of 85 uniformed firefighters from California. The memorial in Prescott Valley began with a choir singing “On Eagle’s Wings” as Biden sang along from the sidelines. Homeland Security Secretary and former Arizona Gov. Janet Napolitano looked on, as did Sen. John McCain and his wife, Cindy, and other members of the state’s congressional delegation. Biden talked about the 1972 death of his wife and young daughter in a traffic crash, and how firefighters freed his sons from the mangled wreckage. “I don’t have the privilege of knowing any of these heroes personally, but I know them. I know them because they saved the lives of my two sons,” Biden said. He also said firefighters rushed him to a hospital after he suffered an aneurysm in 1998, and he credited firefighters with saving his wife Jill after lightning once struck their home. Gov. Jan Brewer praised people around the country for responding as she hoped they would — with candlelight vigils, financial contributions, prayers, and flowers and notes placed at makeshift memorials. “Of course our hearts are filled with profound sadness today, but they’re also filled with great pride,” she said. “How wonderful is it to know that Arizona was home to 19 men like those we honor today.” Outside the minor league hockey arena, each of the 19 firefighters was represented by a U.S. flag and a purple ribbon with his name. A bronze statue of a wildland firefighter with an ax in hand, stood in front as if guarding the building. Inside, each firefighter’s name scrolled across an electronic board on two sides of the arena. Lined up in front of the stage were 19 sets of firefighting gear, complete with commemorative Pulaski tools similar to the ones the elite crew uses to dig lines around fires.
Lloyd was fatally shot. Ortiz told police that, after picking up Lloyd, the four men headed back to North Attleborough. Along the way, Hernandez told Lloyd that Lloyd had been “chilling” with people Hernandez had problems with, the documents said. But Ortiz told police that the two men shook hands and the problem seemed smoothed over. But soon the car stopped, and everyone but Ortiz got out to urinate, according to Ortiz’s account. The witness also told police he then heard gunshots before Hernandez and Wallace got back into the car without Lloyd and the vehicle sped away. Wallace faces an accessory to murder charge in the case and has pleaded not guilty. Meanwhile, eight search warrants were unsealed in Massachusetts after news organizations sought access to the records. The warrants reveal the breadth of the investigation, with authorities scour-
ing through everything from Hernandez’s house to his phone to the contents of his team locker, which the Patriots emptied into a container after they released him. Police seized a rifle and ammunition found in Hernandez’s home. According to the documents, Hernandez became “argumentative” during his first encounter with police at his home following Lloyd’s death. He asked, “What’s with all the questions?” and locked the door behind him. He then returned with his attorney’s business card but didn’t respond when police told him they were investigating a death. “Mr. Hernandez slammed the door and relocked it behind him,” the records read. “Mr. Hernandez did not ask officers whose death was being investigated. Mr. Hernandez’s demeanor did not indicate any concern for the death of any person.”
Hassan signs capital budget that includes money for new women’s prison
CONCORD (AP) — New Hampshire’s female prison inmates will finally be getting a new home. Gov. Maggie Hassan signed a $245 million public works budget Tuesday that contains a new women’s prison. The 224-bed prison and transitional facility will be located in Concord near the men’s prison. The project will cost $38 million and is the largest single item in the budget. The new law calls for the design
to include enough land for possible expansion to 350 beds in the future. “For too long, our corrections system has woefully neglected women. Through the capital budget, we are now able to build a long-overdue new women’s prison with facilities and programs that can help individuals safely move back into society when they have served their sentences,” Hassan said in a statement.

Good time for U.S. to lead from behind “Leading from behind” would seem the right place for America to be in the complex crisis engulfing Egypt. But critics want President Obama up front, telling the Egyptians what’s what. Sen. John McCain complains on a Sunday talk show that Egypt’s second coup in 2 1/2 years is “a strong indicator of the lack of American leadership, and influence, since we urged the military not to do that.” The Arizona Republican goes on to insist that the leadership deficit is wrecking the whole Mideast. Citing the troubles in Syria, Lebanon, Iraq and Afghanistan, McCain says, “When American doesn’t lead, bad things happen.” Now, can we seriously believe that a call from the president, even a stern call, would stop the whirlwind of conflict in Egypt? Sure we could threaten the $1.5 billion we give them in annual aid, but the new people in charge say they intend to reset the democracy and are friendlier to the United States. That’s not going to happen. In Egypt we saw a democratically elected president deposed for undemocratic behavior (and incompetent governing). A tough call for us, but must the United States publicly pick sides in a struggle that (a) we cannot control and (b) U.S. participation only complicates? Naturally, both sides blame America, insisting that U.S. Ambassador Anne Patterson is plotting with their foes. The following quotes from The New York Times show our dilemma: Mona Mohammed, a bank clerk supporting the overthrow of President Mohammed Morsi: “The ambassador is part of a conspiracy against Egypt and its people.” Mohammed Amr-All, a professor at a pro-Morsi demonstration: “The ambassador meets with the opposition and supports them.” Back in the United States, Patterson’s to blame, as well. Conservative David Brooks writes: “She tried to build relationships with whoever is in power. This created the appearance that she is subservient to the Brotherhood. It alienated the Egyptian masses.” Of course, building relation-
ships with whoever is in power is an ambassador’s job, and Morsi was elected. And what about the pro-Muslim Brotherhood masses now protesting the Morsi ouster? Clearly, there are masses for every viewpoint. Writing in The New Republic, Marc Tracy offers an “appropriate liberal response.” That would be “making clear that we value democracy,” while using the tools of diplomacy “to put ourselves and our allies in more certain positions when democracy, as it inevitably does, winds up giving us unwelcome surprises.” You wonder what “more certain positions” would be in the case of Egypt’s unfolding chaos. Perhaps they don’t exist — or put another way, the position we should have taken will be revealed by history, long after the dust settles on the tragic convulsions in Egypt. The European Union is quietly talking to all sides, as is the Obama administration. But Obama’s cautionary approach is not the American way, says a punditry frustrated that we aren’t using our power to do whatever. Perhaps it should be in certain disordered situations, which describes almost every Mideast crisis. To do otherwise means choosing from equally unattractive options and taking the inevitable blowback from the side we don’t seem to be supporting — which, as we see in Egypt, tends to be both sides. More McCain: “Morsi was a terrible president. Their economy is in terrible shape thanks to their policies. But the fact is, the United States should not be supporting this coup.” The fact is, we are not supporting the coup. As Obama told a National Security Council meeting over the weekend, “The United States is not aligned with, and does not support, any particular Egyptian political party or group.” Lack of leadership? No, the only sensible response at this time. (A member of the Providence Journal editorial board, Froma Harrop writes a nationally syndicated column from that city. She has written for such diverse publications as The New York Times, Harper’s Bazaar and Institutional Investor.)
Power outage showed how insane our traffic light timing is To The Daily Sun, Today, July 5, there was a major power outage ranging from about Cumberland Rd. in Gilford almost to Trustworthy Hardware in Laconia.

LETTERS New ‘Lone Ranger’ peels away one Old West myth after another To The Daily Sun, “Return with us now to those thrilling days of yesteryear. From out of the past come the thundering hoof beats of the great horse Silver. The Lone Ranger rides again!” This antiseptic version of how the West was won came to me every Friday afternoon at 5 p.m. It sustained me throughout my childhood and many times, at the insistence of my parents, I would have to glue my ear to the radio because I tended to raise the volume when Rossini’s William Tell Overture and Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture played in the background to the introduction above. The little appreciation I have for classical music I owe to the Lone Ranger. My moral code was also developed during those half-hour episodes. To this day, I have no problem identifying the bad guys — namely those that don’t agree with me! Religious inferences appeared throughout the episodes. The Ranger himself assumed a divine nature as he glared over the empty landscape mythefied by the landscape painters of the early 1830s. Always impeccably dressed and squeaky clean even after wallowing in the mud, the Ranger with his white hat and white horse are reminiscent of other biblical connotations. Not surprising since the executive producer, once aspired to become a minister. In the 40s the U.S. was fighting an ideological battle with the “godless” communists. The West became the Promised Land of the Old Testament. The Pilgrims, who arrived in 1620 viewed the land as their special gift from God. They were God’s
chosen people and this land belonged to them. This was “their” home to which they were returning. And so began the myth of “how the West was won” — kept alive only by the tourist industry and until the recent Disney movie, by Hollywood. Enter Gore Verbinski’s version of the Lone Ranger now playing in your local cinemas. This Disney film, would you believe, is not recommended for children given its extremely violent graphics. Told from Tonto’s point of view (after all, he was there) the story peels away one myth after another, starting with the “white man’s burden”, bringing the Anglo-Saxon’s “gift for governing” to the barbarians of the world. Tonto is no longer the servile “apprentice white man”. The Ranger, although politically correct for its time is inherently racist in that natives are seen as not capable of surviving without the assistance of the Euro-Americans. White supremacy at its height, reflecting the Freemasonry Republican leanings of the first executive producer. I can’t blame many of my friends who refuse to see this film because of the violence or who want to maintain their “innocence”. Most of my friends are educated people and I’m sure they understand reality as opposed to pop culture. I think Johnny Depp and Gore Verbinski have done more to influence public opinion than any of the revisionist historians that Republicans love to hate. As for me, I have only one question: “who was that masked man?” George Maloof Plymouth

LETTERS Granite State Future goal will be to get us to accept ‘free’ money To The Daily Sun, The nine unelected Regional Planning Commissioners are pushing their vision to permanently change every N.H. town and city into their perception of the new N.H., by mandating equal outcomes for everyone and not equal opportunity. This perverted vision disregards our elected representatives form of local and state government. Through the tenacles of their regional planning framework, the Granite State Future intrudes into virtually every aspect of our lives — housing, health (HEAL Program), transportation, water infrastructure, environment, economic development, climate control assessments, energy efficiency, education and green building. The structure of the Granite State Future program includes state and federal agencies (as well as special pay-to-play organizations) that have contractually committed to “cross intergrate their policies with the statewide policy framework”. Each of these “chosen” partners have been granted a direct conduit into defining New Hampshire state policy — conveniently bypassing our State Legislature. The deceptive plan to implement this agenda (without elected oversight) is to use state agency policies and regulations via Granite State Future partner agencies to impose the Granite State Future with the force of the law, circumventing our elected representatives. We should all be concerned based on the recent abuses by the EPA, IRS, and NSA. Need more convincing? Ask the regional planning commissioners who owns the water in your well. They’ll say the water is a “community resource” that must be protected by the state. By “protected”, they mean regulated and taxed. The regional planning commissioners, via the Granite State Future program, presented their vision to our N.H. representatives on June 11, 2013. The meeting was a “Listening Session that was chaired by Ben
Frost, the director of N.H. Housing Finance Authority (NHHFA), a payto-play partner in the Granite State Futures program The NHHFA is overseeing the distribution of HUD’s Community Planning Grant Funding (CPG) in N.H. They are pushing the bait of “free money” to willingly entice communities into relinquishing their property rights and local zoning control — in perpetuity — using a deceptive, systematic scheme that is being implemented slowly and incrementally. Once grant money is accepted, towns and cities will be left with little to no options to change their minds. The grants are presented as innocuous to the recipients, but in reality they open the door for the federal government (via HUD and other federal agencies), to dictate changes in local zoning ordinances under the guise of fair housing. And if towns fail to comply HUD can wield its iron fist by using the brute force and full power of the federal government. Westchester County, N.Y. accepted Community Planning Grant money, and is now in battle for its life. Based upon the grant agreement, HUD is now trying to force the county to meet HUD’s definition of “fair housing” by demanding Westchester County change all zoning in every town AND build 10,768 “affortable” homes at a cost to Westchester County taxpayers of $700M to $1B (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kZJYD2XvpM). Former HUD Deputy Secretary Ron Simms referred to Westchester “as a model for building strong, inclusive sustainable communities across the entire United States.” This approach is coming to the Live Free or Die Free State via the Trojan Horse called the Granite State Future program. Call your selectmen, state representatives, senators and governor. Tell them to end this deceptive program to usurp our GOD given rights to Life, Liberty and Property. Rosemary Landry Meredith
Nature of the universe is conservation; E=mc² is its statement To The Daily Sun, Neo-cons (new conservatives) originated in the 1960s from a group of antisoviet liberals and social Democrats who come from intellectuals writing in the journal of the American Jewish Committee, which had replaced the earlier Contemporary Jewish Record of the 1940s. Letter writer George Maloof referenced neo-cons in a long opening paragraph about conservatives. The twist being his reference is towards those “old” liberals who just can’t progress. Ronald Reagan was a Democrat dissatisfied with the neolibs, who are the neo-cons Maloof references; he ran as a Republican. He goes on then to “broad stroke” conservatives as reactionary fundamentalist of the “Religious Right” of all the religions around the world who are notorious for overreaching. The thick and desirably sticking paint on his brush, a colorless “cognitive dissonance”, is summed up as, “they don’t like change”. Ending with what might be a brilliant thought, “Einstein, who
stein was the ultimate conservative. For over a hundred years an effort has sought to disprove his foundational equations, string theory the latest, all have only succeeded to secure it. The nature of the universe is conservation, was it otherwise the energy which created it would long ago have burnt out. E=mc² is the statement of conservation as it states energy and mass are equivalent. The ends of the universe is limited only by our ability to see. Psychologists have terms for everything, if they don’t they lump it in somewhere as it may always be redefined. His gospel of terms and definition chase after a desperate search for a truth which only may be found when one looks into a mirror. That long list of labeling others is the cloth which comforts those who are unable to define themselves. Politically, a conservative — which I consider myself — is one who adheres to the Articles of the N.H. Constitution, Part I — The Bill of Rights. Has see next page

Maine man charged with failing to stop after two-car crash in Belmont village BELMONT — A Maine man is charged with one count of operating after suspension and a violation for failing to stop at a stop sign after he was involved in a two-car crash at the intersection of Main Street and Route 140. Belmont Police said Francios Moretto, no age given, of Carrabasset Valley, Maine was headed west on Gilmanton Road or Route 140 when he collided with a northbound car being
driven on Main Street by Jonas Sanborn, no age given, of Canterbury. Police said both were transported to Lakes Region General Hospital for treatment of what police described as minor injuries. Moretto was given a court date of August 29 to appear in the 4th Circuit Court, Laconia Division for the operating after suspension charge. — Gail Ober
AIRPLANE from page 2 training captain who was instructing the pilot flying the aircraft has told investigators he thought the autothrottle, similar to a car’s cruise control, was programed for a speed of 137 knots — the target speed the pilots had selected for how fast they wanted the plane to be flying when it crossed the runway threshold.
Instead, investigators said the plane reached speeds as low as 103 knots and was in danger of stalling because it was losing lift before it hit the seawall. The pilot told investigators he realized the autothrottle was not engaged just seconds before they hit. Their last second efforts to rev the plane back up and abort the landing failed, although numerous survivors report hearing the engines roar just before impact. “We just seemed to be flying in way too low. Last couple seconds before it happened the engines really revved into high gear. Just waaah! Like the captain was saying ‘oh no, we gotta get out of here.’ And then, boom! The back end just lifted up, just really jolted everybody in their seats,” said crash survivor Elliot Stone, who owns a martial arts studio in Scotts Valley. Asked if the autothrottle was malfunctioning, Hersman said that is something investigators are looking see next page

Young Barnstead woman walks away from car’s upside down landing in pond BY GAIIL OBER
BARNSTEAD — A young local woman somehow escaped serious injury yesterday after she swerved to miss a deer, lost control of her car, hit a stone wall and landed upside down in a pond. Police Chief Ken Borgia said Elizabeth Smith, 20 was headed west on Beauty Hill Road at 8:28 a.m. when a deer ran in front of her car. When she swerved to avoid hitting it, police said she left one side of the road, swerved again and left the other side of the road, swerved again and struck a rock wall. After striking the rock wall, the car became airborne and landed upside down in a portion of Huntress Pond near 266 Beauty Hill Road. Somehow, Smith escaped from the car and, other than some scrapes and bruises, was unharmed. “I was so relieved that she was out of the car,” said Beauty Hill Road resi-
dent Tim Eade who heard the crash and ran from his home. He said by the time he got to the side of the pond, the car had already sunk to the bottom. “The girl was out of her car soaking wet,” Eade said, saying her lack of injury was “miraculous.” Police said when they arrived the only thing showing was the bottom half of the car wheels, however ever the people who called 9-1-1 — one of whom was Eade — had reported the driver was already out of the car, was walking around, and had been alone. “That thing (the car) was just demolished,” he said, describing the 2004 Honda Accord as it was pulled from the water by a crew from Loudon Garage. Borgia said the N.H. Department of Environmental Services went to the pond to evaluate any possible damage. Borgia said there is no suspicion of drugs or alcohol and at this time there are no pending charges.
from preceding page into as they examine hundreds of parameters of data downloaded from the plane’s flight data recorders. An overreliance on automated cockpit systems has figured in dozens of air crashes and incidents in recent years. “Some people, if they believe the autothrottles are engaged and if they are used to flying with the autothrottle engaged, will not realize that the autothrottles are not engaged and will let the plane get pretty slow. That has come up before,” said John Cox, an aviation safety consult and former Air Line Pilots Association accident investigator. Hersman said the pilots told investigators they were relying on automated cockpit equipment to control their speed during final approach, but NTSB officials say it is still unknown whether a mistake was made in programming the “autothrottle” or if the equipment malfunctioned. Hersman said the pilot at the controls was only about halfway through his training on the Boeing 777 and was landing that type of aircraft at the San Francisco airport for the first time ever. And the co-pilot was on his first trip as a flight instructor. A final determination on the cause of the crash is months away and Hersman
cautioned against drawing any conclusions based on the information revealed so far: Seven seconds before impact, someone in the cockpit asked for more speed after apparently noticing that the jet was flying far slower than its recommended landing speed. A few seconds later, the yoke began to vibrate violently, an automatic warning telling the pilot the plane is losing lift and in imminent danger of an aerodynamic stall. One and a half seconds before impact came a command to abort the landing. The plane’s airspeed has emerged as a key question mark in the investigation. All aircraft have minimum safe flying speeds that must be maintained or pilots risk a stall, which robs a plane of the lift it needs to stay airborne. Below those speeds, planes become unmaneuverable. Because pilots, not the control tower, are responsible for the approach and landing, former NTSB Chairman James Hall said, the cockpit communications will be key to figuring out what went wrong. “Good communication with the flight crew as well as the flight attendants is something I’m sure they’re going to look at closely with this event,” he said Tuesday. “Who was making decisions?”

Lifesaving record earns city ‘HeartSafe’ designation By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — This week the city became the 21st municipality in New Hampshire to be designated a “HeartSafe” community by the American Heart Association (AHA) in recognition of its Fire Department’s record of saving the lives of one in every four victims of cardiac events, a rate almost five times the state average. Accepting the award at the City Council meeting Monday night, Deputy Fire Chief Shawn Riley cited the close relationship between the department and LRGHealthcare and the efforts of firefighters and EMTs while expressing appreciation to those bystanders who have assisted emergency personnel and the councilors for funding the purchase of automated external defibrillators (AEDs). Nancy Vaughan, director of government relations of the AHA, explained that the program seeks to encourage municipalities to forge what the organization calls the “Chain of Survival” by providing access to emergency care, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, defibrillation and advanced care all in a timely fashion.

noted that each passing minute diminishes the chance of survival by 10 percent. Designation is awarded by points — called “HeartBeats” — earned by providing CPR and AED instruction and distributing AEDs. Riley said that 57 AEDs have been placed in public and private facilities throughout the city and, in addition, Lucas 2 devices, which administer CPR automatically, are deployed at the Central and Weirs Beach stations. Riley told the council that just hours before the meeting a 48 year-old man went into cardiac arrest at Weirs Beach. The 911 dispatcher coached one of his fellow employees through CPR until firefighters Jess Desrosiers, Dave Monasky and Jay Ellingson arrived from the Weirs Beach station together with Officer Ben Black of the Laconia Police Department and Don Doucette, an off-duty firefighter. Riley said that CPR was continued with the Lucas 2 device. “He was talking to us by the time he left ,” said Riley, “and we expect he will fully recover.” “If something happens to me,” said Councilor Bob Hamel (Ward 5), who was serving as mayor pro-tem in the absence of Mayor Mike Seymour, “I hope I’m in Laconia.”

Gilmanton Year Round Library has raised $23k since majority of voters said ‘no’ By Gail OBer
brainstorm ways to raise the money to keep the library open. Kirby said they will also get a petition for Year-Round Library support on the SB-2 ballot for 2014.
She said yesterday supporters have been very generous to the Year-Round Library and said the association has gotten a few larger contributions as well as a number of taxpayers who calculated the $45,000 difference in their tax rate and sent the money to the association. A “Summer Fling” fundraiser held in late June raised $2,800 for the Year-Round Library and Kirby said a number of other fundraisers are in the planning stages. She said Doug Towle is planning an antique home tour and will donate the proceeds to the library and in September Patrick’s Pub will hold a 50-50 day. There is also a tour and a special dinner being planned at one of the town’s local wineries. Kirby said the association wants to do a big fundraiser in late autumn or early winter but hasn’t decided yet what it will be. Kirby said the next Year-Round Library Association meeting is tomorrow night at 7 p.m. at the library. She said the association operates on a fiscal year that ends in July and the new association board will be organized at a meeting on August 14.
of the cabin, two on the south side, a window at the rear and sliders opening on to the deck, which overlooks the river. A pair of triangular windows lighten the loft, where there is room for a queen sized bed. Fashioned of rough-cut pine, the cabin is topped with a green metal roof. The deck wraps around the trunk of the tree and is overhung by a cantilevered roof. Cosco said that no part of the structure is secured to the tree. “If the tree came down,” he said, “the only thing that would let go would be the roof over the deck.” The interior features a tongue-and-grooved ceiling, hardwood floor and granite breakfast bar, along with a refrigerator and microwave. The cabin is wired, but there is no plumbing. Cosco attached a washstand to the tree. “I’m sure he’ll be drinking
coffee and need a place to wash the cups,” he said. Access to the tree house will be gained by a suspension bridge hanging between the deck and an adjacent tree, which will be joined to the main building by a second bridge. “It’s an amazing feat,” said Bartlett. “He built everything himself.” Cosco said at the outset he had some help, but when his partner scaled the ladder and stood on the open deck, he could not move. “Height is what happened to my help,” he remarked. Height posed no challenge for Cosco, who as a painter worked on bridges in Massachusetts. “Either I carried everything up on the ladder or I roped it,” he continued, pointing to a strand of blue rope hanging from the see next page

GILMANTON — The president of the Year-Round Library said yesterday the organization has gotten around $23,000 in donations and now has enough cash on hand to stay open until at least February 1. Anne Kirby said there are now 100 members of the “400 Club” — a challenge issued by the Baldwin family to get 400 people to each donate $100 to the effort. “Since the vote failed in March, we’re just about half-way there,” Kirby said yesterday after attending a budget committee meeting for the Gilmanton Year-Round Library Association earlier in the day. “We’re pretty happy to have raised what we have,” she added. Supporters of the Year-Round Library petitioned a $45,000 warrant article at town meeting in March of this year but it was voted down by voters. Kirby said the $45,000 covers the operating expenses of the library that was built with grants and donations. This was the first time since 2009 voters had said no to a request for library operating funds. On March 28, supporters packed the library to TREE HOUSE from page one that the opportunity arose when he chose to turn his space inside the building to the program. “It seemed like a good idea,” he said. Bartlett drew a sketch and, apart from the foundation, Cosco did the rest. The cabin sits atop four sixinch square steel steel pillars anchored in concrete footings. Bartlett said that a team from Barlo Signs, where he served as vice-president, raised the steel. Meanwhile, Cosco built the deck, which was hoisted on to the pillars with a crane. “From there Bob built the rest by himself,” Bartlett said, “from a sketch.” The cabin consists of one room, 12-feet by 16-feet with a sleeping loft and eight-foot deck. Cosco enlarged Bartlett’s original 12-foot by 12-foot floor plan. There are four sash windows on the north side

Transient said to have had 3 unloaded guns & drugs on him when arrested LACONIA — Police responding Tuesday evening to a report of a disturbance near the intersection of Church Street and North Main Street ended up arresting a 30-year-old transient man and charging him with a number of crimes, including threatening with a knife. Joseph Coughlin now faces three counts of criminal threatening with a deadly weapon, three counts of possession of a firearm in violation of a protective order, as well as single charges of resisting arrest, possession of controlled drugs, possession of narcotic drugs and possession of drug paraphernalia.
Police arrived on the scene at about 6:40 p.m. to find several men had been involved in an altercation. According to a police report, Coughlin took off running when police arrived and displayed a knife to a pursing officer before he was apprehended. A search is said to have found the suspect in possession of three unloaded handguns, marijuana, Clozapoine and other drug-related paraphernalia. Police say other people involved in the incident say Counglin had also displayed a knife to them. Coughlin is due the be arraigned in 4th Circuit Court - Laconia Division at 8:30 a.m. today.

Those who fooled around trying to start their cars to leave the area, there are probably some who burned in them,” Fluet said. “And some who weren’t fast enough to escape the river of fire that ran down to the lake, they were roasted.” The same train caught fire hours earlier in a nearby town, and the engine was shut down — standard operating procedure dictated by the train’s owners, Nantes Fire Chief Patrick Lambert said. Edward Burkhardt, president and CEO of the railway’s U.S.-based parent company, Rail World Inc., suggested that shutting off the locomotive to put out the fire might have disabled the brakes. “An hour or so after the locomotive was shut down, the train rolled away,” he told the Canadian Broadcasting Corp. Lambert defended the fire department. “The people from MMA told see next page

Resident Gilles Fluet saw the approaching train. “It was moving at a hellish speed,” he said. “No lights, no signals, nothing at all. There was no warning. It was a black blob that came out of nowhere.” He had just said goodbye to friends from preceding page deck. “And I got pretty ingenious in finding ways to create another pairs of hands.” Bartlett said that he originally estimated the project to cost about $45,000, but expects it will be completed for close to $25,000. “Bob shaved the budget.” Cosco said that he plans to finish by the end of this week, guessing that he will have put the equivalent of six or seven 40-hours weeks into the project. Bartlett said he plans to furnish what he called his “central station” next week.

22 years after horrific accident, woman’s walk in 4th of July parade tugs at Ashland’s heartstrings By RogeR Amsden FOR THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
ASHLAND — It was an emotional moment for many who watched this town’s Fourth of July parade as they saw former hometown girl Khrista Matthews walk along part of the parade route. Matthews, who lost the use of her legs 22 years ago in a horrific crash on Interstate 93 in Sanbornton, says that she has been walking with the use of crutches and leg and hip braces for over five years now. ‘’I was a little overwhelmed by the response. People were so enthusiastic and happy to see me walk. I didn’t realize it was going to be such an emotional moment,’’ said Matthews. She said that she made a last-minute decision to walk in the parade and knew she couldn’t walk the whole route, so arranged for people to bring her crutches to her on a level part of Main Street so that she could walk at least part of the route. ‘’I’ve been walking for quite some time with the crutches, ever since 2008, as part of my exercise. So I said to myself ‘why not do it in a parade?’ ‘’ It turned out to be an unforgettable moment for the spectators, whom Matthews notes hadn’t seen her walk in 22 years, as well as Matthews herself, who hadn’t expected the huge show of support and affection from the hometown audience. Matthews, 36, says she remains active in a number of sports activities for handicapped athletes, including hockey and water skiing. She also enjoys swimfrom preceding page us, ‘That’s great — the train is secure, there’s no more fire, there’s nothing anymore, there’s no more danger,’” Lambert said. “We were given our leave, and we left.” Transport Canada, the government’s transportation agency, said Tuesday there are no rules against leaving an unlocked, unmanned, running locomotive and its flammable cargo on a main rail line uphill from a populated area. Officials also said there is no limit on how many oil-filled, single-hull tank cars a train can pull. Transportation Safety Board investigator Donald Ross said the locomotive’s black box has been recovered but cautioned that the investigation was still in its early stages. The tanker cars involved in the crash were the

She at one-time worked as RecycleFirst program manager for Northeast Passage, a University of New Hampshire program that provides recreational opportunities for people with disabilities, and from 2005 until 2010 worked for the N.H. Department of Corrections as an accounting technician. She now serves as a volunteer at Lakes Region General Hospital in Laconia, where her cheerful personality is a hit with her co-workers and patients alike, while continuing to stay active in sports programs such as hockey. Khrista, who at one time shared a home in Belmont with her sister, Melissa, who was also injured in the same accident, says that her parents, Larry and Penni Matthews, now live with her while Melissa has moved to Ashland, where she has a job in the housekeeping department at Plymouth State University. The Feb. 9, 1991 accident took place on a Saturday evening when a southbound driver entered the northbound lane of I-93 at New Hampton and, after driving several miles, collided with the northbound car in which the Matthews girls were passengers. Killed in the crash were Kathleen Hansen, driver of the northbound car, who was driving the girls home from a church gathering. Also killed were Khristina Hansen, the driver’s daughter, and Amber Duncan. DOT-111 type — a staple of the American freight rail fleet whose flaws have been noted as far back as a 1991 safety study. Experts say its steel shell is so thin that it is prone to puncture in an accident. The derailment also raised questions about the safety of Canada’s growing practice of transporting oil by train, and is sure to support the case for a proposed oil pipeline running from Canada across the U.S. — a project that Canadian officials badly want. Efforts continued Tuesday to stop waves of crude oil spilled in the disaster from reaching the St. Lawrence River, the backbone of the province’s water supply. Environment Minister Yves-Francois Blanchet said the chances were “very slim.” Lac-Megantic’s mayor said about 1,200 residents were being allowed to return to their homes.

I don’t want to be consumed by hatred.” The 3½-minute video, produced last week and posted at midnight Monday, was filmed in a Cleveland law firm overlooking treetops, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum and Lake Erie. DeJesus’ parents, Felix DeJesus and Nancy Ruiz, joined the heartfelt statements of gratitude, thanking the public for donations to a fund set up to help the women. More than $1 million has been donated. Ruiz encouraged parents with missing loved ones to reach out for assistance. “Count on your neighbors,” she said. “Don’t be afraid to ask for the help because help is available.” The women have turned aside media interview requests and appealed again for privacy since they were rescued in May when Berry broke through a CHURCHES from page 1 as outreach ministries. St. James parishioners would keep their affiliation with the Episcopal Diocese. Nyatsambo said that St. James has offered to share the expenses of operating and maintaining the church on Parade Road, where the parish would hold its services on Saturday evenings beginning next month . “We believe that in the longterm it would benefit both churches to share one building,” Nyatsambo said.

Peter Lenstrohm (Tennessee) worked 7-2/3 strong innings to pick up the win for the Muskrats. He gave up just one run on 5 hits, striking out 6 and walking 2. Dylan Parker got the last out of the eighth and worked the troublesome ninth (3 runs on 2 hits — including 2 triples) but still got credit for a save.

Left fielder Jordan Lee (Texas A&M-Corpus Christi) and catcher Carter White (Memphis) each had 2 hits. door and yelled to neighbors for help. The women had disappeared separately between 2002 and 2004, when they were 14, 16, and 20 years old. The owner of the home where they were found, 52-year-old former bus driver Ariel Castro, was arrested and has pleaded not guilty to a 329count indictment alleging he kidnapped them off the streets and held them captive in his two-story home. In the video, none of the women had any visible scars of the abuse they said they suffered. Castro fathered a 6-year-old daughter with Berry and is accused of starving and punching Knight, causing her to miscarry. “I am getting stronger each day,” Berry said. “Having my privacy has helped immensely.” The trio wants to maintain that privacy, according to a statement from the team of lawyers and crisis management experts helping them without charge.

Plymouth State oversees volunteer water sampling project PLYMOUTH — On July 16, volunteers throughout New Hampshire have committed to collecting water samples in the State’s rivers and streams to take a ‘snapshot’ of water quality. Plymouth State University is overseeing this unique water sampling project with the goal of improving the understanding of New Hampshire’s water resources and providing data to be used by resource managers, state agencies, researchers, and educators. Approximately 50 volunteers throughout New Hampshire have committed to collecting water samples that will be sent to PSU and a University of New Hampshire lab for detailed lab analysis of a number of different chemicals in water. PSU is believed to be the first to organize such an effort in NH – and effort that has involved hours of planning and logistics. Errin Volitis, a research technician with the Center for the Environment at PSU is helping to coordinate the effort. “Each sampling day involves volunteers carefully collecting filtered water samples from their site,” said Volitis.
“The samples are then frozen for storage and set to a laboratory for analysis. PSU has provided each volunteer with sampling supplies and instructions, but the volunteers have made the project possible.” Assistant professor of hydrology Mark Green is the researcher who developed the project concept. “The idea was to give us three snapshots of NH’s rivers and streams allowing us to better understand the difference between water resources in the State, and how these water resources respond to the different types of land use,” Green said. “The data from this project will be extremely valuable in creating new understanding about our water conditions in New Hampshire,” Green said. The river sites where water samples are being collected are part of a larger project funded by the National Science Foundation through a cooperative agreement to the New Hampshire Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research.

Traditional Fiber Arts Fair on Sandwich Town Green Saturday
SANDWICH — A Fiber Arts Fair will join the Center Sandwich Farmer’s Market this Saturday, July 13, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. creating a Middle Ages like event where folks from throughout the region come to the town green to sell their wares. This program, (admission and parking are free), coincides with the town’s 250th celebration so a large turnout is expected. As it was in the 1500’s, the green will come alive Saturday with demonstrations and instruction on spinning, weaving, quilting, rug hooking and other fiber art mediums. “It can’t be a real ‘fiber arts fair’ without live sheep and goats on the green” said Donna Carlucci, owner of the Kindred Spirit Farm, “so I will bring Shetland sheep and Angora goats to town that day.” “When her plans were publicized, several other farms declared they

Tilton Senior Center to offer weekly chair yoga classes this summer
TILTON — Beginning this Thursday, and continuing on subsequent Thursdays through August, the Tilton Senior Center will offer a summer chair yoga class from 9 a.m. to 10:15 a.m. at its location on Grange Road in Tilton. The first session is free, and each class thereafter is $5. Marjorie Moulton of Concord Hospital’s Center for Integrated Health will lead the class. Chair yoga is a gentle way to learn
THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Wednesday, July 10, 2013 — Page 17
yoga poses that will improve flexibility, strengthen muscles, and improve balance. Participants remain seated in a sturdy chair during the class, making it suitable for most individuals. Anyone interested in using a floor mat to get a more vigorous experience is welcome to bring one along. For more information, contact Sarah at the Tilton Senior Center at 527-8291.
“The water samples will be analyzed to determine basic measures of water quality. We are looking at concentrations of phosphorus, dissolved organic carbon and nitrogen in addition to pH, turbidity or clarity, and major ions (Calcium, Magnesium, Sodium, Potassium, Chloride, Sulfate, Nitrate). These ions are major contributors to electrical conductivity, so they will help us interpret the water electrical conductance data we get from the sensors,” said Green.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’re about adventure, being free, finding out what’s going on over there, and over there, too. As for your responsibilities, you’ve managed them well, and you’ll be back. In the meantime, they can wait. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). There’s something you must do that you don’t like doing at all. Do it first. This will improve the overall quality of your day. Otherwise, you’ll spend the whole day cozied up to a nagging feeling. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Extraordinary beauty is created with consistent and simple acts. Don’t forget this when you observe a beautiful result. Instead, remember that you, too, can do this with the right plan. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 10). You’ll see the options you missed before in your personal life. A new friend colors your world this month and next. By September, things develop into a more formal arrangement. Your time with a mentor will end, and you’ll pay it forward by taking on students in September. November and February bring bonus money. Aquarius and Taurus people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 10, 38, 12 and 50.
by Chad Carpenter
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’ll get organized with calendars and contacts. Each event and every person on the list gives you a feeling. Is it time to make some additions and deletions? Your contact list should be rich with uplifting people. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). It’s good to be needed, but not too much -- it’s a lot of pressure. In situations of dependency, it’s difficult to control the amount and intensity of the need. So teach others to be as self-sufficient as possible. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Can you make the point and make someone laugh at the same time? Can you be so breezy in making your point that no one is embarrassed, ashamed or made wrong? A resounding “yes” is the answer, and you’ll prove it today. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You cherish someone, and it’s felt. It’s in the tenderness of your eyes, the thoughtfulness of your words and the intention of your touch. You will get as much from the exchange as the one you cherish. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll be working on a pretty attitude to match your face. Sometimes it doesn’t come easily. Challenging, immature and ungrateful people make it hard to smile and be positive, encouraging and easygoing. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’re sensitive and soulful today. Good music is a must. The one who controls the radio dial or the playlist that’s running through the speakers controls the mood of the space. Let that person be you. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Thinking can solve as many problems as it creates. There’s a point at which it’s wise to stop with the thoughts and start with the feelings. Don’t let your mind drown out the knowingness in your body and soul. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your heart does more than pump blood. It wants to get involved in everything today, to beat for more than you, to process the joy of the world. Your big heart cannot be contained. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll get a break from the cacophony of daily life. As the silence thickens, you are drawn to a hidden part of yourself that’s demanding release. Why haven’t you heard this voice before?

––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Wednesday, July 10, the 191st day of 2013. There are 174 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On July 10, 1913, the highest recorded shade temperature was measured in Death Valley, Calif., at 134 degrees Fahrenheit (56.7 degrees Celsius). On this date: In 1509, theologian John Calvin, a key figure of the Protestant Reformation, was born in Noyon, Picardy, France. In 1890, Wyoming became the 44th state. In 1919, President Woodrow Wilson personally delivered the Treaty of Versailles to the Senate, and urged its ratification. (The Senate rejected it.) In 1925, jury selection took place in Dayton, Tenn., in the trial of John T. Scopes, charged with violating the law by teaching Darwin’s Theory of Evolution. (Scopes was convicted and fined, but the verdict was overturned on a technicality.) In 1929, American paper currency was reduced in size as the government began issuing bills that were approximately 25 percent smaller. In 1940, during World War II, the Battle of Britain began as Nazi forces began attacking southern England by air. In 1951, armistice talks aimed at ending the Korean War began at Kaesong. In 1962, AT&T’s Telstar 1 communications satellite, capable of relaying television signals and telephone calls, was launched by NASA from Cape Canaveral. In 1973, the Bahamas became fully independent after three centuries of British colonial rule. John Paul Getty III, the teenage grandson of the oil tycoon, was abducted in Rome by kidnappers who cut off his ear when his family was slow to meet their ransom demands; young Getty was finally released in December 1973 in exchange for nearly $3 million. In 1978, ABC-TV launched its reformatted evening newscast, “World News Tonight,” with anchors Frank Reynolds, Peter Jennings and Max Robinson. In 1985, the Greenpeace protest ship Rainbow Warrior was sunk with explosives in Auckland, New Zealand by French intelligence agents; one activist was killed. In 1991, Boris N. Yeltsin took the oath of office as the first elected president of the Russian republic. President George H.W. Bush lifted economic sanctions against South Africa. Ten years ago: During a visit to Botswana, President George W. Bush pledged to the nation with what was then the world’s highest AIDS infection rate that it would have a strong partner in his administration in fighting the disease. Five years ago: President George W. Bush signed a bill overhauling rules about government eavesdropping and granting immunity to telecommunications companies that helped the U.S. spy on Americans in suspected terrorism cases. One year ago: Clashing over the economy, President Barack Obama challenged Mitt Romney to join him in allowing tax hikes for rich Americans like them; Romney dismissed the idea and redirected charges that he had sent jobs overseas when he worked in private equity, calling Obama the real “outsourcer-in-chief.” The National League romped to an 8-0 victory over the American League in the All-Star game.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Annie: My parents bought a house 15 years ago. When Mom died seven years later, Dad decided to refinance and take Mom’s name off the deed. The bank needed a co-signer, so my sister and I agreed to be the co-borrowers. Dad is now 75. Four years ago, he married a 47-yearold divorcee with a 22-year-old daughter. Since then, they have been living on my dad’s Social Security without making any effort to get a job. Now he wants to sell the house and move to Mexico to be closer to her family. I asked Dad to give us what would have been half of Mom’s share to be split among his seven children. He doesn’t want to give us anything. But without my signature, he can’t sell the property. I’m concerned that this woman is taking advantage of my father. What should I do? -- Not Fair Dear Not Fair: Unless your mother put in her will that the property should go to her children, please give it to Dad without strings. He has been living with this woman for four years. There doesn’t seem to be any physical or emotional abuse, nor is she trying to steal his money and leave him. If she’s taking advantage of him, he doesn’t object. We know you want to protect Dad, but if he is of sound mind, please let him make these decisions on his own -- for better or worse. Dear Annie: I was sitting in my car at the drugstore when a couple came out of the building, and the man started taking pictures of my car with his smartphone. I put my hand up and asked him to stop photographing me. The woman started yelling, saying I was in a parking lot and she could take pictures of whatever she wants. Why does everyone think that just because their phones can snap pictures they can take a photo of anyone they
want, whenever they choose? -- Annoyed Dear Annoyed: Because they can. Unless they use the photo for illegal purposes, they can take pictures of your car and anything else. If you see the photo posted online, you can ask that it be removed, but there are no guarantees they will cooperate. In fact, this particular couple sounds excessively rude, irritating and a bit immature. Unfortunately, there’s not much you can do about it. Dear Annie: We read the letter from “Pa and Ma,” who were hurt that the stepchildren spent more time with the in-laws. They asked whether they should move across the country to be closer to their son. We have two young children and love our parents. However, years ago, we moved far away for better jobs. Both sets of grandparents are in their 60s and retired. They are fairly uninvolved in our lives and visit perhaps once every two or three years. They never offer to babysit and refuse if we ask. Our visits to see them are costly and unpleasant. We receive no financial help from them, nor do we expect it. They’ve also made it clear that they don’t plan to leave us anything when they die. It makes us sad that our kids will never have a strong bond with their grandparents. “Pa and Ma” sound like they want to spend time with the grandkids, want to help out and want to be a big part of their lives. If they lived near us, we would “adopt” them as our kids’ grandparents so they could spend time together. We have done this with seniors at our church, who let our kids call them “Grandma and Grandpa.” Please suggest to “Pa and Ma” that they look in their area for a family with young children who would love to have them in their lives. -- Two Sides to Every Story in New England
