‘Goat Kid’ of Gilmanton Iron Works sure has ‘Heart’
Robert Malynn, 9, known as ‘The Goat Kid’ to his friends, of Gilmanton Iron Works brought his two, one-year-old Nuvian Goats, his family recently rescued, Heart (because of the marking on her back) and Stubbin, (a play on the word) to this year’s 115th Gilmanton Old Home Day festivites at the Smith Meetinghouse in Gilmanton Saturday afternoon.

Nevada petroglyphs are oldest in North America
PYRAMID LAKE, Nev. (AP) — Ancient rock etchings along a dried-up lake bed in Nevada have been confirmed to be the oldest recorded petroglyphs in North America, dating back at least 10,000 years. The petroglyphs found on limestone boulders near Pyramid Lake in northern Nevada’s high desert are similar in design to etchings found at a lake in Oregon that are believed to be at least 7,600 years old. Unlike later drawings that sometimes depict a spear or antelope, the carvings are abstract with tightly clustered geometric designs — some are diamond patterns, others have short parallel lines on top of a longer line. Scientists can’t tell for sure who carved them, but they were found on the Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe’s reservation land. “We initially thought people 12,000 or 10,000 years ago were primisee GLYPHS page 10

On the stand, Manning apologizes for hurting U.S. FORT MEADE, Md. (AP) — Pfc. Bradley Manning took the stand Wednesday at his sentencing hearing in the WikiLeaks case and apologized for hurting his country, pleading with a military judge for a chance to go to college and become a productive citizen. He addressed the court on a day of often emotional testimony from family members about his troubled childhood and from a psychologist who said Manning felt extreme mental pressure in the “hypermasculine” military because of his genderidentity disorder — his feeling that he was a woman trapped in a man’s body. “I am sorry that my actions hurt people. I’m sorry that they hurt the United States,” he said as he began.
The soldier said that he understood what he was doing but that he did not believe at the time that leaking a mountain of classified information to the anti-secrecy website would cause harm to the U.S. Though he often showed little reaction to court proceedings during most of the two and a half month court-martial, Manning appeared to struggle to contain his emotions several times Wednesday during testimony from his sister, an aunt and two mental health counselors, one who treated him and another who diagnosed him with several problems. Manning, 25, could be sentenced to 90 years in prison for the leaks, which occurred while he was working as an Army intelligence analyst in Iraq in 2010. The
judge will impose the sentence, though exactly when is unclear. The next session, for any prosecution rebuttal testimony, is set for Friday. Speaking quickly but deliberately, Manning took only a few minutes to make his statement Wednesday. He appeared to be reading it from papers he was holding and looked up a number of times to make eye contact with the judge. It was an unsworn statement, meaning he could not be crossexamined by prosecutors. He said he realizes now that he should have worked more aggressively “inside the system” to draw attention to his concerns about the way the war was being waged. He said he wants to get a college degree, see MANNING page 9
CAIRO (AP) — In Egypt’s bloodiest day since the Arab Spring began, riot police Wednesday smashed two protest camps of supporters of the deposed Islamist president, touching off street violence that officials said killed nearly 300 people and forced the military-backed interim leaders to impose a state of emergency and curfew. The crackdown drew widespread condemnation from the Muslim world and the West, including the U.S., and Nobel Peace Prize winner Mohamed ElBaradei resigned as the interim vice president in protest — a blow to the new leadership’s
credibility with the pro-reform movement. “Today was a difficult day,” interim Prime Minister Hazem el-Beblawi said in a televised address to the nation. While he regretted the bloodshed, he offered no apologies for moving against the supporters of ousted President Mohammed Morsi, saying they were given ample warnings to leave and he had tried foreign mediation efforts. The leaders of Morsi’s Muslim Brotherhood called it a “massacre.” Several of them were detained as police swept through
MADRID (AP) — Minube, a travel startup on the outskirts of Madrid, is doing something that many Spanish companies haven’t thought about for years: It’s hiring. The company, which sells bookings as it helps travelers share their experiences using social media, has nearly doubled its headcount from 17 at the end of last year to 30. Business is booming as customers come in from across Europe — including some places hardest hit by Europe’s economic crisis.

Utah fire destroys 13 homes, threatens hundreds more WANSHIP, Utah (AP) — A wildfire threatened hundreds of homes Wednesday after destroying more than a dozen others outside the resort town of Park City. The lightning-sparked blaze was among several in the West where fires have devoured dry grass and brush and burned to the edges of small communities. Shifting winds in Utah pushed the fire toward homes in a subdivision about 10 miles outside Park City. It destroyed a dozen homes on Tuesday, plus another home overnight. Fire officials say it also burned 20 outbuildings and several vehicles and boats. The fire began near a populated area and had grown to 2,000 acres, or nearly 3 square miles, by Wednesday evening. About 250 homes northeast of Park City remain threatened, including some along a golf course in the gated community of Promontory. Residents who hoped to return home Wednesday night aren’t likely to be allowed back in until Thursday at the earliest, said Utah fire official Mike Eriksson. Some were allowed to pick up pets and medication early Wednesday. Steady winds and rising temperatures stoked the fire Wednesday afternoon, sending large clouds of brownish-black smoke into the sky. The fire was still only about 25 percent contained, said Utah fire official Mike Eriksson.
“The winds haven’t been helping out with this fire,” Eriksson said. “It’s definitely growing.” The lighting strike that ignited the blaze Tuesday shook Kim Alderman’s convenience store, and flames were visible within a few minutes. The fire then spread into the gated communities of Rockport Ranches and Rockport Estates, mostly middle-class homes used as primary residences, said Alderman, owner of the Rafter B Gas N’ Grub in Wanship. Brenda Child was at a nearby lake with her 6-year-old grandson when she saw the flames Tuesday afternoon. She raced home in her car and ran into the house with her shirt covering her mouth to avoid breathing in the smoke. She grabbed her dog, computer and insurance policy and left. When she was allowed to return Wednesday, she found the 3,000-square-foot house she and her husband moved into three months ago untouched. “I was absolutely horrified that our house was going to be gone,” Child said. Several helicopters and one large DC-10 tanker plane worked the fire Wednesday, dropping fire retardant. More than 100 people were assigned to help fight the fire. In west-central Utah’s Skull Valley, more than 20 structures had been threatened by the Patch Springs Fire on Tuesday. Crews made progress and officials said Wednesday the structures were no longer threatened by the 16-square-mile blaze.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) — A UPS cargo plane crashed into a field near the Birmingham airport Wednesday, killing two pilots and scattering wreckage over a wide rural area moments after witnesses heard the massive jet coming in at treetop level. People living near the airfield reported seeing flames coming from the aircraft and hearing its engines struggle in the final moments before impact. “It was on fire before it hit,” said Jerome Sanders, who lives directly across from the runway. The plane, an A300 that had departed from Louisville, Ky., went down around daybreak about a halfmile from Birmingham-Shuttlesworth Airport. It broke into several pieces and caught fire. The pilot and co-pilot were the only people aboard. Weather conditions at the time were rainy with low clouds. Toni Herrera-Bast, a spokeswoman for the city’s airport authority, said the crash did not affect air-
port operations, but it knocked down power lines. The National Transportation Safety Board sent a team of investigators to the scene. A preliminary investigation indicated the pilots did not make any distress calls, board member Robert L. Sumwalt said. Investigators were waiting to retrieve the cockpitvoice and flight-data recorders because the tail of the aircraft was still smoldering, Sumwalt said. UPS spokesman Jeff Wafford said the jet was carrying a variety of cargo. He did not elaborate. The pilots’ names were not immediately released. But a man who identified himself as a family member said one of the pilots was Shanda Fanning, a woman in her mid-30s from Lynchburg, Tenn. Wes Fanning, who said he was the woman’s brother-in-law, said Shanda Fanning had been flying since she was a teenager.

Survey confirms presence of ‘I’m guilty’ – hospital technician at center of hepatitis emerald ash borer in N.H. C outbreak will serve 30 to 40 years in prison CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — New Hampshire forest officials say a survey shows an invasive beetle that destroys ash trees is present in at least 5 percent of the trees within a 24-square mile area. The survey was led by the state Department of Resources and Economic Development’s Division of Forest and Lands led the survey to determine the extent of the investigation. Foresters and volunteers collected samples from 195 sites within a 112-square-mile area surrounding the tree where the beetle was first discovered in March. The beetle was present in samples from 12 of those sites. “The disturbing thing about this pest is that its damage spills out into many different areas, from urban forests to deep forests, and into all different types of products — from landscaping materials to baseball bats,” said Kyle Lombard of the Division of Forests and Lands. “ Officials discovered the emerald ash borer in March in Concord and Bow. Officials recommend that those areas consider insecticide treatment options for some trees, and consider removing others. Those within 10 miles of the infested areas, such as towns like Allenstown, Chichester, Dunbarton, Hopkinton and Pembroke, are urged to check trees for signs of infestation. Included in that category are parts of Boscawen, Candia, Canterbury, Concord, Deerfield, Epsom, Goffstown, Henniker, Hooksett, Loudon, Manchester, Warner, Weare, and Webster. Landowners beyond the 10-mile area are urged to take an inventory of their ash trees and evaluate them for signs of the ash borer.
CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — A traveling hospital technician accused of infecting patients in multiple states with hepatitis C through tainted syringes pleaded guilty Wednesday in New Hampshire to 16 federal drug charges under an agreement that calls for him to serve 30 to 40 years in prison. Judge Joseph Laplante asked David Kwiatkowski, 34, why he wasn’t going to trial. “Because I’m guilty,” Kwiatkowski responded. Kwiatkowski pleaded guilty to 14 charges of drug theft and tampering in New Hampshire, along with two similar counts in Kansas, although he was never formally charged there. Sentencing was set for Dec. 3, at which time the judge could impose a different sentence. Before he was hired by New Hampshire’s Exeter Hospital in 2011, Kwiatkowski worked as a cardiac technologist in 18 hospitals in seven states, moving from job to job despite being fired at least four times over allegations of drug use and theft. Forty-six people in four states have been diagnosed with the same strain of hepatitis C Kwiatkowski carries and is accused of spreading by replacing stolen painkiller syringes with saline-filled syringes tainted with his blood. Thirty-two patients were infected in New Hampshire, seven in Maryland, six in Kansas and one in Pennsylvania. Kwiatkowski also worked in Michigan, New York, Arizona and Georgia. One of the Kansas patients died, and authorities say hepatitis C, a blood-borne virus that can cause
liver disease and chronic health problems, played a contributing role. The charges Kwiatkowski admitted to in Kansas stem from the patient who died, and many of the other patients have experienced serious medical problems, U.S. Attorney John Kacavas said. “Tragically, the defendant’s admissions of guilt today are too little, too late for those victims,” he said. “There were many warning signs, there were many stop signs, there were many red lights along that road that were simply ignored by the defendant himself, a health care worker, by other individuals and entities in the health care industry.” Kwiatkowski grew up in Michigan and started his career there before becoming a traveling hospital technician who was assigned by staffing agencies to fill temporary openings around the country. According to the plea agreement filed Monday, Kwiatkowski told investigators he had been stealing drugs since 2002 — the year before he finished his medical training — and that his actions were “killing a lot of people.” His lawyers have declined numerous interview requests. Kwiatkowski told the judge Wednesday he was addicted to drugs and alcohol and was recently diagnosed with depression, for which he is taking several medications. Asked how he was feeling Wednesday, he answered, “good.” Kacavas said most of Kwiatkowski’s victims support the plea agreement, though some were disappointed that the proposed sentence wasn’t longer.

Hillary? Obama is still the president These days, almost every political conversation ends up with a little Hillary at the end. Catnip. The gift we give ourselves. It would make absolutely no sense for Hillary Clinton to decide today whether she will or will not run for president. So the only sensible stance to take is that it’s not impossible or, if you prefer, it certainly is possible, which is to say they flirt and we fan it. Even out of office, Hillary Clinton obviously has the power to bring attention to issues, propose solutions, define problems, shape the debate. And if there’s a chance she might be in office again, she has more power still. You are never more popular, certainly with the press, than the day before you announce. Until the day she says for sure she isn’t running, she’ll be treated as if she is. That’s the easy part. The press bores easily. But us? What I find striking is just how many of us, less than a year into our president’s second term, are getting stars in our eyes thinking about Hillary 2016. Have we so quickly lost interest in 2013 — or in the current occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.? The president is on vacation. I don’t begrudge him that. But there is something about the image of carefree days on the beach that seems so old and completely out of touch with where the country is. Things did not turn out exactly the way we boomers expected, which is certainly a big piece of the “there’s still Hillary” coda. I know all of these amazingly qualified people who are ready for the next act, who still, God willing, have decades of work and life and expenses ahead, just not in the job or place they’ve been in the past. Does the president get it? One of the things that was so striking about the president’s comments on the George Zimmerman verdict was how clear it was that he understood the ordeal of Trayvon Martin’s family and those who support them. And maybe a little of the back-
lash (which was unwarranted on any rational grounds) owed to the folks who are wondering whether he’ll ever understand their lives. But there’s more to it. Barack Obama — he of the gifted voice, the soaring spirit, the 21st-century politician — sounds more and more like everybody else in Washington. You can half-close your eyes, and it’s all a bunch of word soup: “the American people” yada, yada, “but our opponents” yada yada, we’re on the side of “the American people,” and “they’re blocking progress... “ If you throw in “Benghazi” and “tax breaks for the rich,” you can pretty much turn the page. Now, I’m not saying that Hillary Clinton wouldn’t sound just like Obama if she were sitting where he is (I’m long past re-fighting 2008). But he’s where he is — and she’s more than three years from that seat — and he’ll spend the rest of his life looking back at these months, particularly this critical period before the midterm elections, and wondering what more he could have done. Obamacare is about to take center stage. Sometimes, listening to the president’s attackers and defenders, I think Kool-Aid must be all that’s being served in D.C. Hello! Isn’t the challenge right now to make the system work as well as it can for as many people as it can? Isn’t that what we should talk about: How do we do it, fix it, work it? Not whether the president was right or wrong. The point of sending representatives to Washington is to see what they can agree on, not what they can disagree on. You can disagree on cable news.

LETTER Boot drive proceeds will allow two kids to attend Camp Foster To the Daily Sun, You may have noticed and additional delay traveling down Main Street of Tilton on Thursday, August 8. The delay was due to the TiltonNorthfield Professional Firefighters Local 4659 annual collection that was able to collect $1,600 for the Muscular Dystrophy Association. We want to thank you for emptying your cup holders and wallets; as you may have
heard us say, every little bit adds up. On July 9 this year, four of our members had the chance to witness how these funds collected are utilized.

LETTERS Young girls out there, relish in your youth while you have it To The Daily Sun, All you young girls out there, relish in your youth while you have it. I couldn’t wait until I was 21 so I could vote and maybe have a drinky or two. Of course, that was in the dark ages, the fifties. I think today some start drinking in elementary school! Anyway, after you reach 21, all of a sudden you are in your forties and going through the change and quite a change it is. You get hot flashes and you start to grow a “beard” and a “mustache”! Where did this hair come from all of a sudden. Only men have this problem. Well surprise, surprise. Now you are aging into your late sixties and early seventies. You look at your body and you see all these little brown spots appearing. Yuk. You think maybe they will get together and you
will have a nice tan in the summer. No way. You are also noticing that your skin is getting wrinkled on your face and what are those wrinkles doing on your arms? What happened to the elasticity that was there 50 years ago? And what happened to my thighs? They used to be firm only because I was skinny. Now I have dimples. It’s called cellulite. Gross. Now my attire consists of long sleeves and long pants. The hot flashes are gone somewhat. We never think of ourselves as “old” until we look at our body. Some of us age gracefully. Some of us just age. I consider myself lucky that I have reached this age. I hope all you girls out there do the same and longer. Great health to all. Barbara J. Perry Moultonborough
Proposed wind developments are a disaster waiting to happen To The Daily Sun, Wind Developers plans for 100 turbines+, constructed on four stunningly beautiful lakeside sites between Groton and Grafton, will, according to many local residents, change the this community for the next quarter century. How can a commercial wind investment of a half billion dollars, on 15 miles of local ridge lines, not make an impact? The most obvious impacts are: watershed damage, deforestation damage, wildlife damage, river and stream damage, seep damage, visual damage, etc. What’s your concern? Opposition for these next three wind projects have increased. Locals are worried about the damage to their livelihood (home values) and to tourism. I heard a few comments at the Antique Auto Show that stopped me in my tracks. Comments like: “New Hampshire will be disfigured” and “This is a massacre of our beautiful landscape”; one asked, “Would the governor like these monstrosities in front of her house?” Another statement I heard was: “If the turbines are not running or are not connected to the grid, they won’t provide any power at all, would National Grid then take over. The answer is no. The promise of electricity for thousands of consumers is spin, not fact!”
Yet state politicians want to ruin our livelihood. Have they forgotten that our communities represent families too, not just votes? The proposed 15 miles of turbines would make this community resemble a wind park. What’s more, to create this “park”, it would be necessary to deforest much of the mountain-tops as well as blast into them, and upset the environment for decades to come. The whole thing is a disaster waiting to happen. I believe these turbines were meant to be built in Massachusetts, but, of course they don’t want them spoiling their communities either. It’s amazing how wealthier people have much more influence than us country folk. However, New Hampshire Wind Watch is hopeful that it’s not too late to fight these next proposals: “We have initiatives in place, it’s not a done deal, and the more people who protest, the better. I also heard a new tourism opportunity at the show...this wind proposal is not necessarily a negative — we could organize jeep tours to go up and view them — because they are so beautiful (LOL - had to put that in at the end... it did make me laugh).

Many jumped to held in wake of serious motor vehicle accident To the Daily Sun, On Wednesday, August 7th at noontime I was involved in a three car motor vehicle accident on Route 11 next to the Scenic View. It was a serious accident, a woman lost her life and another was seriously injured. I was injured as well and had to be removed from my vehicle by Gilford and Laconia Firefighters. I wish to express my condolences to the family of the deceased woman and to the others involved. I would like express my gratitude to the police officers, firefighters and medical personal who responded to the scene so quickly and handled the situation so professionally. I would also like
to thank the emergency room staff at Lakes Region Medicinal Center for the care they provided to me. Last but certainly not least I would like to thank my friends from Lake Shore Park, Bob and Marilyn Henderson. Bob was on scene with in minutes to assist and Marilyn was kind enough to drive my wife Eileen to the hospital and stay with her until they knew that I was going to be alright. I would also like to thank the the police officer who used his cell phone to call my wife in those first few moments after the accident. Thanks to all of you! Marty Leary Gilford
Those on the left are guilty of very crime they accuse of the right To The Daily Sun, In response to L.J Siden’s letter in the August 10th edition of The Sun: I had to read your letter more than once in order to determine whether it was a piece of carefully crafted sarcasm or if you actually meant what you wrote. In the end I realized you were serious. With that realization it became quite apparent you suffer from a malady common to many on the left: projection. You make a number of accusations that are ludicrous at best, going on and on about what supposedly motivates the right. But after the second or third reading of your letter I realized that the very thing you attribute to the right is what you and many on the left do on a regular basis — you are resistant to facts that do not meet the left’s narrative. What’s worse is the left will outright ignore them or try very hard to discredit them even when they come from many of the same sources upon which they usually rely. While some of the talking points you bring up are valid, you attribute them to everyone on the right when nothing could be further from the truth. If I were to do the same thing as you I could easily claim that the left believes in government control over every aspect of our lives, telling us where we must live, how often and with whom we must have sexual relations, how many children we can have (assuming it approves of us reproducing at all), how we have to raise them, where our children must go to
school and what classes they must take, what cars we must drive if we’re allowed to drive at all, and when we must die. While there are some on the left who believe all of those things, I do not attribute them to everyone on the left. That would be foolish and close-minded. Do those on the right fear a dictatorship by Obama and his minions? Yes, some do and they have history on their side to justify their concerns. Many dictatorships were not achieved by coups but by the dictators fooling the electorate and, once in power, obliterating the rights and freedoms of their citizens one step at a time until they were all gone. Has Obama made any such moves? From my personal observations, I’d have to say yes. He’s already shown that he has no respect for the Constitution, going around Congress when he doesn’t get his way and stepping in on matters that are, quite frankly, not within the purview of his office. Does that automatically mean he will become a dictator? No, but it should concern everyone including you and your brethren on the left that he has little respect for the law. Do I deny facts that “complicate” my views? No, I do not. For one thing I know life is complicated and that one-size-fit-all solutions rarely work. Will I question facts that go against things I have learned through experience? Absolutely. I do not accept facts willy-nilly. I wait until I can verify them from someplace other than from where I originally came across them. see next page

Some Gilford property owners exercising their option to ‘unmerge’ lots By Gail OBer
THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
GILFORD – To unmerge or not to unmerge. That is the question that a few landowners are asking themselves in the wake of a 2010 N.H. Supreme Court ruling and a Gilford town referendum that allowed landowners to “unmerge” or separate adjoining irregular lots that had been combined by the town without the knowledge of the owners. According to Planning Administrator John Ayer, the law is quite clear — property that was involuntarily merged or combined with an adjoining lot by the town can be separated along the original property line. In addition, once two or more lots have been voluntarily merged by an owner, they cannot be “unmerged.” Only a request for a subdivision is appropriate. To date, Ayer said 11 lots in Gilford have been “unmerged” and one of the owners is considering putting his lots back together to save money on taxes after being unable to sell one of the separated or “unmerged” lots. Ayer said the merging of non-conforming lots started in the late 1960s and early 1970s and, with the onset of zoning and the establishment of a minimum lot size, was likely a reaction by the town to a number of irregular lots abutting other irregular lots. Irregular lots were merged with adjoining lots if they had the same registered owner, often without the consent or knowledge of the owner. Barbara Aichinger of Governors Island upset the apple cart in 2007 when she tried to “unmerge” her two lots and build a house on each one — one for her and one to sell to finance the other. When the town initially agreed to separate the lots, it gave her a building permit for the second lot. But then the town changed its mind, and Aichinger went to court. While Aichinger actually lost many of the specific points of law she had argued in 2010, the N.H. Supreme Court upheld her right to continue building on the abutting lot. She also spurred the state Legislature pass RSA 694:39-aa, which became law in 2011 and gave New Hampshire property owners whose lots were involuntarily merged by a local governing body until at least 2016 to “unmerge” them. The law also prohibits municipalities from involuntarily merging lots. In 2010 Gilford voters passed a zoning ordinance that gave owners the same rights as the state law, but extended it into infinity or until a new ordinance is passed. Fast forward to 2013 and potential buyers are wondering what lot merging means, what it means to have a lot “unmerged,” and what building rights are associated with purchasing it. The benefit to a land owner or future land owner to keep multiple lots together is taxes — one building lot will cost less in taxes than two or more building lots. The downside to keeping a merged lot is the inability sell it as a separate building lot without “unmerging” it — a process that can be time-consuming and comes with no guarantee that other restrictions won’t deter construction.
The difficulty for a potential buyer is knowing whether or not a lot was involuntarily merged and assessing its real value. “Buyer beware,” said Ayer. How a property owner chooses to market his property, he said, is a decision made by the owner and the real estate agent. He declined to comment on specific Gilford properties listed for sale by saying each one needed to be researched on its own. He said other restrictions can also rendered an “unmerged” lot not buildable — giving steep slopes, setbacks and proximity to water as examples of restrictions that can also restrict an owner’s right to build, regardless of whether it was involuntarily merged or not. He referred to a July 13, 2013, N.H. Supreme Court decision that centered on the town of Windham and the desire of a property owner to “unmerge” lots that date back in his family to at least 1913. The case hinged on whether or not the lots were voluntarily merged by his ancestor. The town used to deeds and existing construction as guides to the intent of the now deceased former property owner and the court upheld their findings. Windham officials had agreed some of the five full lots and two partial lots that had been involuntarily merged could be separated, but decided one of the partial lots wouldn’t qualify because the previous owner had built a garage two feet from the old property line and with the same access as the main lot. The town said the same principle applied to a bunkhouse built on an second abutting lot. The house, the garage, and the bunkhouse all use the same driveway. The Supreme Court upheld the town’s decision that two of the lots were voluntarily merged with the main lot by the previous owner because he built the garage two feet from the property line and must have considered it to be the same lot. The same principle, said the court unanimously, applied to the bunkhouse. “... a shared driveway alone may not be indicative of an intent to merge lots, when viewed in conjunction with evidence of the placement of the garage and the bunkhouse, the use of a single driveway to serve multiple lots supports the conclusion that the prior owners intended to merge the lots,” reads the opinion supporting the town’s ruling. Ayer said Gilford will take no action on “unmerging” unless approached by the property owner and he will review each set of circumstances. He said his department makes its determination by examining deeds and conveyances to see if a lot has been involuntarily merged. He said property owners should provide a written inquiry, a copy of their deed, and any other evidence that their lot was involuntarily merged. If the property owner disagrees with his decision they can be appeal to the Zoning Board of Appeals. The Windham case went all the way to the state Supreme Court.

Man & 2 children quickly rescued Massachusetts woman, charged with from choppy Lake Winnipesaukee driving while intoxicated, held on cash bail GILFORD — A man, two children and drifting boat were corralled in the choppy waters of Lake Winnipesaukee off Ellacoya State Park by a Marine Patrol officer and lifeguard around 12:30 p.m. yesterday. Officer Seth Allie of Marine Patrol said that the man was towing the two children on tube when the line became snarled in the propeller, suddenly slowing the boat, jerking the tube askew and sending the young boy and girl into the water. The man , who was not wearing a life jacket,
went into the water. Allie said that a bystander reported the incident, while a lifeguard at Ellacoya went to the aid of the children, who were both wearing jackets. First on the scene, Officer Nicholas Haroutunian of Marine Patrol helped the man regain control of the boat. Although a strong wind fed a steady chop on the lake, the three were not in danger and were brought to shore safely. — Michael Kitch
LACONIA — A Massachusetts woman was ordered held on $1,750 in cash bail after he arrest Tuesday for aggravated driving while intoxicated and driving after her license was suspended. Paperwork obtained from the 4th Circuit Court, Laconia Division said a State Police Trooper clocked Rhonda K. Michels, 42, of 270 Canal St., #304, in Lawrence, Mass., driving in New Hampton at 83 mph at 6:25 p.m. The trooper stopped Michels near Exit 23 and noticed her Massachusetts license had been suspended. She had an outstanding warrant for failing to appear for
court in the 10th Circuit Court, Plaistow Division after being charged with DWI. The trooper also noticed she had an outstanding warrant in Virginia for felony hit and run however, the state of Virginia doesn’t want to extradite her. He noticed her eyes were blurry and her breath smelled of alcohol and she was taken into custody. Once at the Laconia Police station, police said she voluntarily took a breath test and her blood-alcohol level was allegedly .28. Judge Jim Carroll ordered her held on $750 for failing to appear in Plaistow and 1,000 on the recent allegation.
RAPE from page one Affidavits obtained from the court say the alleged sexual assaults were reported separately to police. There are two female juvenile victims — one (N.C.) who was 14-years-old and one (K.S.) who was 16-years-old at the time they were allegedly raped. The first alleged assault was reported on July 5 by N.C. who told her therapist that Sulloway “raped” her on May 18, 2013. The therapist reported it to police the same day. When she was interviewed she said she was at a friend’s (M.B.) house and sex was initiated during a game of truth or dare. N.C. told police M.B. was in the room the entire time. When police interviewed M.B. she told them
she was sitting on the bed the entire time while they had sex. When police spoke to the N.C.’s mother, she reported her daughter had told her about the sex with Sulloway and had said she wanted to do it. Police interviewed Sulloway on Tuesday and he allegedly admitted having sex with N.C. once and that she had initiated the contact. He alleged to police he used a condom. A second girl (K.S.) also reported to a Laconia Police Officer on July 5 that she had been raped by Sulloway in the bathroom of a home on Dixon Street on July 5 — the same day she reported it. K.S. told police that Sulloway allegedly locked her in the bathroom twice and the second time he dragged her
by her feet. She said the first time Sulloway kept trying to lift up her shirt and kiss her breasts. She said she tried to stop him about three times. She said he also allegedly put his finger in her and was on top of her. She said she was “struggling” against him. During his interview with police on Tuesday, Sulloway told police that he kissed her and put his finger in her and “she was okay with him doing that to her.” After his arrest, he told the bail commissioner and the police he was “homeless” and slept “here and there.” While in the booking room police said he threatened to take his own life and was taken to LRGH for evalua-
tion. One of the conditions of his bail as imposed yesterday is that if he gets admitted to the State Hospital the bail reverts to personal recognizance. Sulloway was convicted on Aug. 27, 2012, in the 4th Circuit Court, Laconia Division for statutory rape for having sex with a girl who was older than 13 but younger than 16. He was sentenced to nine months in jail — all suspended for two years pending his good behavior. He was also ordered to get a pycho-sexual evaluation within 90 days. On July 23, Laconia Prosecutor Jim Sawyer asked the court to bring forward the suspended sentence because Sulloway had allegedly not complied with the court order.
EGYPT from page 2 the two sit-in sites, scores of other Islamists were taken into custody, and the future of the once-banned movement was uncertain. Backed by helicopters, police fired tear gas and used bulldozers to plow into the barricades at the two protest camps in different sections of Cairo where the Morsi supporters had been camped since before he was ousted by the military July 3. Army troops did not take part in the two operations, which began shortly after 7 a.m. (0500 GMT — 1 a.m. EDT), although they provided security at the locations. The smaller camp — near Cairo University in Giza — was cleared of protesters relatively quickly, most taking refuge in the nearby Orman botanical gardens, on the campus of Cairo University and the zoo. But it took about 12 hours for police to take control of the main sit-in site near the Rabaah al-Adawiya Mosque in Nasr City that has served as the epicenter of the pro-Morsi campaign and had
drawn chanting throngs of men, women and children only days earlier. After the police moved on the camps, street battles broke out in Cairo and other cities across Egypt. Government buildings and police stations were attacked, roads were blocked, and Christian churches were torched, Interior Minister Mohammed Ibrahim said. At one point, protesters trapped a police Humvee on an overpass near the Nasr City camp and pushed it off, according to images posted on social networking sites that showed an injured policeman on the ground below, near a pool of blood and the overturned vehicle. The Health Ministry said 235 civilians were killed and more than 2,000 injured, while Ibrahim said 43 policemen died in the violence. The death toll was expected to rise. Three journalists were among the dead: Mick Deane, 61, a cameraman for British broadcaster Sky News; Habiba Ahmed Abd Elaziz, 26, a reporter for the Gulf News, a statesee next page
from preceding page (Too often those facts come from less than reliable sources. You know, the “I heard it from a friend who knows a guy who’s the personal assistant to someone whose brother-in-law’s cousin works for a guy that knows these things” shtick, or worse, from some of the less reliable media.) If the facts prove to be correct, will I change my viewpoint? Yes, of course. To quote John Maynard Keynes, “When the facts change, I change my mind. What do you do?” And that begs the question, what do YOU do? If I had to guess from
what you’ve written, I’d say that facts aren’t really all that important to you unless they confirm what you know to be “true”, If they disagree with your beliefs, will you change your viewpoint? Or do you dismiss them out of hand as being false or part of some Vast Right Wing Conspiracy and cling to your absolute belief that you’re right and that the facts MUST be wrong or false? If you do, then who’s being “resistant to facts that complicate their views?” ‘Tis not I. Chan Eddy Gilford

Mechanic St. drainage project sets back other Laconia road work LACONIA — City Manager Scott Myers reported that improvements to Morrill Street, Lane Road and Gilford Avenue, originally scheduled for this construction season, will be deferred. He said that unanticipated costs arising from the drainage upgrade required on Mechanic Street as well as the priority of coordinating improvement of Union Avenue between Gilford Avenue and Messer Street with the replacement of the water main along this stretch of roadway in 2014 prompted the decision. Reclamation of the roadway on Belvedere Street and Mechanic Street has been delayed by extensive study and design of the sewer and drainage systems in the roadway. On Belvedere Street, work on the sewer and drains began last week with the roadway
projected to be reclaimed and paved with a base course by the end of the month. On Mechanic Street, after preparing three designs, work to replace the granite box culvert, originally installed a more than a century ago, is scheduled to begin next week and continue through October. Myers said the goal is to complete the sewer and drain work as well as the reclamation and base course paving of the roadway by Oct. 30. He noted the final paving on Belvedere Street will depend on progress achieved on Mechanic Street. Meanwhile, the replacement of the water main and reclamation of the roadway on Clay Street is expected to be complete by early next month and the final wearing coat of asphalt applied in October. — Michael Kitch
MANNING from page 2 and he asked for a chance to become a more productive member of society. His conciliatory tone was at odds with the statement he gave in court in February, when he condemned the actions of U.S. soldiers overseas and what he called the military’s “bloodlust.” Defense attorney David Coombs told Manning supporters that Manning’s heart was in the right place. “His one goal was to make this world a better place,” Coombs said. Manning’s apology could carry substantial weight with the military judge, said Eugene Fidell, who teaches military justice at Yale. “He faces extraordinarily long confinement and if he is coming across subjectively as contrite, I think that may do him some real good with the sentencing,” Fidell said. Manning’s attorneys contend he showed clear signs of deteriorating mental health before and during his deployment that should have prevented commanders from sending him to a war zone to handle classified information. Manning eventually came out to Capt.
Michael Worsley, emailing the clinical psychologist a photo of himself in a long, blond wig and lipstick. The photo was attached to a letter titled “My problem,” in which Manning described his internal struggle and said he had hoped that a military career would “get rid of it.” Worsley testified Wednesday that the soldier was struggling under extreme conditions. “You put him in that kind of hypermasculine environment, if you will, with little support and few coping skills, the pressure would have been difficult to say the least,” Worsley said. Worsley’s testimony portrayed some military leaders as lax at best and obstructionist at worst when it came to tending to soldiers with mental health problems. “I questioned why they would want to leave somebody in a position with the issue they had,” Worsley said. Navy Capt. David Moulton, a psychiatrist who spent 21 hours interviewing Manning at Fort Leavenworth, Kan., after his arrest, testified as a defense witness that Manning’s gender idensee next page

Deane and Elaziz were shot to death, their employers said, while the Egyptian Press Syndicate, a journalists’ union, said it had no information on how Gawad was killed. For much of the afternoon, thousands of Morsi supporters chanting “God is great!” tried to join those besieged by the security forces inside
the Nasr City camp. They were driven away when police fired tear gas. Smoke clogged the sky above Cairo and fires smoldered on the streets, which were lined with charred poles and tarps after several tents were burned. The Great Pyramids just west of Cairo were closed to visitors for the day together with the Egyptian museum in the heart of the city. The Central Bank instructed commercial banks to close branches in areas affected by the chaos.

CASTLE from page one Nichol’s views were mirrored around the room. While a few wanted to try and keep the now condemned landmark and restore it, most agreed the castle itself was no longer salvageable, but didn’t want to see it razed. Many supported the town’s repurchase of the land at the same price for which it sold in 1999. Others, including Atty. Steve Nix, pointed out that the current owners bought the castle and 24-acre parcel with the stipulation that it be restored to some use. Many characterized Jodoin’s ultimate ownership of the castle as a bad investment and had little to no sympathy for his financial well-being. Nix told selectmen that the only value to the town lies in its easements and urged the town not to cede public access through the carriage road or east portion of the property. The proposal as written gives access though the parcel only for emergencies and maintenance. “As trustees,” he said to selectmen, “you are in an excellent position to negotiate.” Retired Belknap County Forester Sumner Dole made a similar argument. “To remove the right of way access to the public is absurd,” he said. Resident Steve Davis suggested they dismember the castle and rebuild it on the Witches — a notorious unnavigable area in the middle of Lake Winnipesaukee that has been the demise of many boats and boaters over the years. “It will be a pile of stones on a pile of stones,” Davis said, adding that if they didn’t put a roof in it, the Department of Environmental Services couldn’t complain about impervious surfaces and runoff. He said it would be beyond vandalism, it would still be Gilford’s castle,
and people would come to the area just to see it. Sandra McGonagle, who has been involved with the castle and its surrounding lands since 1978 said the Kimball Wildlife Forest also opposes the giving up public access. She said their goal is to build a second access with parking on the east side of the property and if the draft proposal goes through as written, that possibility will be eliminated. Kimball Castle was built around the turn of the last century by railroad magnet Benjamin Kimball. It overlooks “the Broads” — or the widest part of Lake Winnipesaukee — and has a panoramic view of the lake. When Kimball’s granddaughter died she left the property to the town for a wildlife sanctuary as well as a $400,000 trust to maintain the property. According to McGonagle, the trust money disappeared in the late 1970s, and in 1999, the town, then the owner of the property, decided to sell a 24-acre parcel on which the buildings were located to a now-defunct hotel company and use the money to maintain the rest of the property for wildlife and for recreation trails — as Charlotte Kimball wanted. The original buyers, Historic Inns of New England, was never able to raise the capital to develop the property and Jodoin and his wife became the sole owners because they were the last investors standing when Historic Inns crumbled. Now living in Boston, the Jodoins want to sell the property and are asking $799,000. To make it more marketable they have recommended the town eliminate the public access, except for emergencies, through that portion of the property. The town’s building inspector ordered the castle itself to be razed in early spring after determining it was a safety hazard.
GLYPHS from page 2 tive, but their artistic expressions and technological expertise associated with these paints a much different picture,” said Eugene Hattori, the curator of anthropology at the Nevada State Museum in Carson City who co-wrote a paper on the findings earlier this month in the Journal of Archaeological Science. The petroglyphs could be as much as 14,800 years old, said Larry Benson, a geochemist who used radiocarbon testing to date the etchings and was the lead author of the research paper. Radiocarbon testing dated the car-
bonate layer underlying the petroglyphs to roughly 14,800 years ago. Geochemical data and sediment and rock samples from adjacent Pyramid Lake show they were exposed to air from 13,200 to 14,800 years ago, and again from 10,500 to 11,300 years ago. “Whether they turn out to be as old as 14,800 years ago or as recent as 10,500 years ago, they are still the oldest petroglyphs that have been dated in North America,” said Benson, a former research scientist for the U.S. Geological Survey and current curator of anthropology at the University of Colorado

tity disorder, combined with narcissistic personality traits, idealism and his lack of friends in Iraq, caused him to conclude he could change the world by leaking classified information. He said Manning was struggling to balance his desire to right wrongs with his sense of duty to complete his Army tasks and his fear of losing his GI benefits and the opportunity to attend college. “His decision-making capacity was influenced by the stress of his situation for sure,” Moulton said. Moulton also reported for the first time in open court that Manning has symptoms of fetal alcohol syndrome and Asperger syndrome, which is an autism spectrum disorder.
Also Wednesday, Manning’s sister Casey Major, 36, testified that they grew up with two alcoholic parents in a rural home outside Crescent, Okla. She said their mother attempted suicide with a Valium overdose after Brian Manning left his wife when Bradley Manning was 12. After looking tearfully at a series of childhood photographs presented by defense attorney David Coombs, Major said Manning has matured since his arrest. “I just hope he can be who he wants to be. I hope he can be happy,” she said. After the court went into recess, Manning went to his sister, hugged her and said something while touching his right hand to his heart.

M’BORO from page one Keith Nelson, Natt King and Bob Goffredo in the majority. Paul Punturieri, who proposed a stronger motion, abstained. Bartlett, Ryerson and Russell Wakefield, the selectmen on the board, recused themselves. Some 40 residents attended the meeting, which was convened at the request of Punturieri, Bartlett and Ryerson to consider “the recent events that have led to the requested resignation of two members.” The chain of events began when, on July 10, the Planning Board approved construction of an observation tower by Bob and Cathy Williams, doing business as Bear’s Nest Trail, LLC, on Red Hill, which had been built without a site plan or building permit and contravened the ordinance restricting development on steep slopes. To approve the project, the board was required to find that it satisfied 11 criteria. The minutes record that Peter Jensen, the acting chairman, “polled” the seven members of the board on the 11 criteria. Two of the 11 failed when the board split evenly — threeto-three — with Bartlett abstaining and Ryerson voting no. However, neither believed it was the best interest of the town to require the structure be dismantled. Ryerson changed her “no” to “yes,” breaking the stalemate in the “poll,” and Bartlett offered a motion to grant the CUP, which carried five-to-two.
Last night, Wakefield disclosed after the Planning Board ruled, the selectmen received a “petition” from an as-yet-unidentified resident challenging the conduct of Bartlett and Ryerson, primarily for changing their votes. On July 18, the selectmen met with Town Counsel Peter Minkow, who Wakefield said advised them to use their statutory authority to begin removal proceedings, but first instruct Town Administrator Carter Terenzini to offer the two members the opportunity to resign rather than undergo a public hearing. When the two refused to resign the selectboard scheduled a public hearing to determine if they should be removed from office. That hearing is scheduled for Monday, Sept. 9, beginning at 1 p.m. The format of the hearing provides 30 minutes for the presentation of the charges, 30 minutes for rebuttal of the charges and time for the selectmen to deliberate. The case against Bartlett is scheduled to be presented at 1 p.m. and against Ryerson at 3:30 p.m. Town Counsel Peter Minkow will serve as an adviser to the selectboard Wakefield repeatedly insisted that the petitioner, not the selectmen, initiated the proceedings. Claiming the selectboard had no alternative, he said, “We’re not trying to impeach these people. We’re trying to follow the rules.” He noted that the charges leveled see next page

British investigators use cat DNA to convict killer LONDON (AP) — Fingerprints are not the only thing that killers can leave behind — add cat hair to that list. A British university said Wednesday that its DNA database of British felines helped convict a man of manslaughter, illustrating how the genetic material of pets can be used by crime scene investigators. “This is the first time cat DNA has been used in a criminal trial in the U.K.,” said Jon Wetton from the University of Leicester. “This could be a real boon for forensic science, as the 10 million cats in the U.K. are unwittingly tagging the clothes and furnishings in more than a quarter of households.” Although drawing DNA from human hair, saliva, or blood samples has long been a part of crime scene investigations, animal material has also provided
invaluable clues. The Veterinary Genetics Laboratory at the University of California, Davis, has used animal DNA to catch criminals for more than a decade — including one case in London in which blood left at the scene of a nightclub stabbing was matched to a murder suspect’s bull terrier. In the latest case in Britain, investigators tapped the same lab to identify the cat hair discovered around the dismembered torso of David Guy, 30, who was found hidden in a trash bag on a British beach in July 2012. Detectives matched the hair to a cat belonging to the man’s friend, David Hilder, but because the genetic material was mitochondrial DNA — which can be shared among large number of animals — the strength of the match couldn’t be known.
EUROZONE from page 2 “We’re finally starting to see a bigger growth curve in Spain, and the strong growth in Italy has been a surprise,” Minube’s co-founder, Pedro Jareno, said. “The improvements we are starting to see in the market are constant.” That brighter — or less gloomy — backdrop was confirmed in figures Wednesday, which showed that the longest-ever recession to afflict the eurozone came to an end in the second quarter of the year. Eurostat, the European Union’s statistics office, said the 17 EU countries that use the euro saw their collective economic output increase by 0.3 percent in the April to June period from the previous quarter. That’s the first quarterly growth since the eurozone slipped into recession in the last three months of 2011. The ensuing recession of six quarters was the longest since the euro currency was launched in 1999. The improvement made up for the previous quarter’s
equivalent decline and was moderately better than the 0.2 percent anticipated in the markets. Growth, however anemic, had been predicted by many economists following an easing in market concerns over Europe’s debt crisis over the past year and record low interest rates from the European Central Bank. The eurozone’s growth, which translates to an annualized rate of about 1.2 percent, is still well below the 1.7 percent the U.S. enjoyed during the second quarter. The wider 27-country EU, which includes non-euro countries such as Britain and Poland, also emerged from its own, milder recession, and like the eurozone is also growing at an annualized rate of around 1.2 percent. Growth in Europe provides a boon to the global economy. The EU, which now totals 28 nations following Croatia’s accession in July, has a population of around 550 million and its annual gross domestic product stands at around $17.3 trillion — both more than the U.S., which has GDP of $16.6 trillion for 315 million people.
from preceding page against Bartlett and Ryerson, which were specified in letters sent to them last week, were framed by the petitioner. “One individual is all it takes,” he said. “We (the selectmen) were just a pass-through.” Challenged by several residents, Wakefield urged, “Have faith in your elected officials, in our intelligence to handle this properly” only to be met with a round of raucous laughter. Eric Taussig, an attorney, said that the selectboard was misapplying the statute. He explained that if the selectmen found fault with the decision of the Planning Board, the appropriate remedy is to appeal the ruling in superior court, not seek to remove members of the board. He pointed to the example of Meredith, where when some residents challenged a variance granted by the ZBA, the selectmen found merit in their argument and filed suit to reverse the decision. The action by the Planning Board was foreshadowed
by Punturieri, who in opening statement explained that he requested the special meeting because he believed that by not bringing the complaint to the Planning Board, the selectmen presented “a dangerous and chilling precedent. Asking for resignations under threat of public disgrace,” he continued , “is unethical and tantamount to blackmail.” Nelson, who was echoed by King agreed. Nelson said that in the Bear’s Nest Trail case, the board acted together, not as individuals, and questions about the procedure or the decision should be addressed to the board. “The selectmen chose the wrong action,” he said. Likewise, Jensen, who acted as chairman during the discussion of the Bear’s Nest Trail case, said that “the charges should not proceed.” He acknowledged, “I had difficulty during that hearing,” indicating that he was unsure of how to proceed. “All can assume some blame for a really mishandled case,” said King.

Red Sox bats force ninth inning tie but Jays answer for the win TORONTO (AP) — Brett Lawrie singled home the winning run in the 10th inning and the Toronto Blue Jays beat Boston 4-3 on Wednesday, handing the AL East-leading Red Sox their fourth loss in six games. Rajai Davis doubled off Brandon Workman (3-2) to begin the 10th and went to third on Jose Bautista’s grounder. Edwin Encarnacion was intentionally walked to bring up Lawrie, who lined a two-strike pitch off the glove of shortstop Stephen Drew, bringing Davis home with the winning run. Brad Lincoln (1-1) worked 1 1-3 innings as the Blue Jays recovered to win after Boston’s Mike Napoli hit a game-tying, two-run homer with two outs in the ninth. David Ortiz also added a solo blast in the sixth, his 23rd. Trailing 3-1 with two outs in the ninth, the Red Sox tied it with Napoli’s shot off Brett Cecil, who was pitching because closer Casey Janssen had
worked the previous two days. The ninth began with Ortiz thrown out by Cecil after trying for a bunt single. Jonny Gomes walked and Drew struck out before Napoli, dropped to seventh in the order, snapped a 0-for-16 slump by connecting for his first homer since July 24. Jarrod Saltalamacchia doubled, Will Middlebrooks was hit by a pitch and Jacoby Ellsbury reached on an infield single to load the bases before Lincoln replaced Cecil and got Shane Victorino to fly out. Demoted to the bullpen last week after his ninth consecutive winless start, Blue Jays right-hander Esmil Rogers returned to the rotation in place of Josh Johnson, who’s sidelined with a sore right forearm. Pitching on his 28th birthday, Rogers allowed one run and five hits in six innings, only to have Napoli’s late homer deny him his first win since June 18. He walked one and struck out six.
The Blue Jays opened the scoring in the third, when Davis took advantage of a pair of Boston throwing errors to circle the bases after hitting an infield single off Jon Lester’s leg. Davis advanced all the way to third when Lester’s errant throw ended up in foul territory, then scored when Victorino’s throw hit Davis and rolled behind third base. Toronto added another run in the fourth. Encarnacion hit a leadoff double and scored when Mark DeRosa blooped a double just beyond the reach of first baseman Napoli. Ortiz hit a one-out blast off Rogers in the sixth, but the Blue Jays answered in the bottom half when Encarnacion hit another leadoff double and scored on a two-out double by J.P. Arencibia. Ortiz has 32 career home runs at Rogers Centre, his most at any stadium other then Fenway Park.
Brady sprains left knee in practice Wednesday
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Tom Brady walked off the field under his own power. Several teammates didn’t think he was hurt badly when he grabbed his left knee after being knocked down. Yet the possibility that the New England Patriots might lose their star quarterback caused a scare at the team’s joint practice with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Wednesday. A person with knowledge of the injury said an MRI was negative and Brady was day-to-day with a left knee sprain. Asked if Brady might play Friday night in an exhibition game against the Buccaneers, the person said he didn’t know. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the Patriots didn’t make an announcement. The two-time league MVP had a season-ending injury to the same knee in the 2008 opener. Brady was injured midway through practice Wednesday when left tackle Nate Solder was pushed into him by Tampa Bay defensive end Adrian Clayborn. Brady, entering his 14th NFL season, fell, rocked backward on the ground and held his left knee. He went to the sideline then returned for a few more plays before talking with coach Bill Belichick and leaving the field toward the team’s indoor practice facility next to it. “You’ve always got to stay away from the quarterback (in practice),” Clayborn said. “You got a guy on his heels and my instinct is to keep going, so that’s what I did.” The contact came just as Brady threw a long incompletion down the right sideline toward rookie Aaron Dobson. “We’re always working to protect,” Solder said. “I’ll have to see what happened on the film. I screwed some things up here and there.” In 2008, Brady tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee. The Patriots missed the playoffs that season. He has played every game since then and the team reached the playoffs in all four seasons. New England is favored to win the weak AFC East for the 10th time in 11 years. Losing Brady would have made that much tougher. After Brady left the field, third-year pro Ryan Mallett played with the first offensive unit and Tim Tebow, on his 26th birthday, played with the second team. Mallett threw an interception soon after taking over. “I’m just trying to do my job,” Mallett said. “I’m sure Tom will be fine and we’ll just go on.” In his first series after Brady left, Tebow completed three of seven passes and looked fairly sharp. One of his passes was dropped. Tebow left practice without speaking with reporters. “Anytime anybody, especially a teammate, goes down it’s a dark cloud. It’s unfortunate,” Patriots running back Shane Vereen said. “He went back out there, but we’ll see.”

Gilford Rotary Club’s annual Pancake Breakfast planned for August 24 GILFORD — The Gilford Rotary Club will serve up its annual Pancake Breakfast Saturday, Aug. 24, from 7 to 10 a.m. at the Gilford Youth Center on Potter Hill Road. Cost is $6 for adults and $3 for kids. Gilford Rotary’s secret recipe all you care to eat pancakes will be served with sausage, orange juice, and hot coffee. All proceeds benefit the Cheryl Walsh Scholarship Fund. The scholarship was started at the urging of club President Richard Ayers and other members of Gilford Rotary in 1988, and was first presented to Corey Ellis in 1989. Originally thought of as an “initially endowed” and eventually “self-sustaining” program, Gilford Rotary initially funded the scholarship with seed money. The proceeds/earnings of the investments plus contributions by members of the Foundation, board and Selection Committee as well as Gilford Rotary have resulted in $500 to $2,500 grants to the recipients over the years. Since the beginning, a silver commemorative bowl, a citation, and the grant have been given to recipients
Strafford Wind Symphony to perform at Alton Bay Christian Center
at Senior Awards Night in June. Since the beginning, a selection committee of board members, friends and past recipients has conducted interviews to select the recipients. The Scholarship has traditionally attracted applications from the brightest and most talented leaders and scholar/athletes of the senior class. Several fund-raising activities have provided additional resources over the years: a Rotary District Ski Race, early on, and the long-standing Annual Old Home Day Rotary Pancake Breakfast, more recently. The goal has been to raise and conserve a substantial enough principal to give a meaningful and truly helpful grant to each year’s recipient(s). Tax-deductible contributions may be sent to Treasurer, Cheryl Lynn Walsh Memorial Scholarship Foundation, c/o Gilford Rotary Club, Post Office Box 7091, Gilford, NH 03247-7091. The club meets Fridays at 7 a.m. at Patrick’s Pub at the intersection of Routes 11 and 11B in Gilford.

Teacher Dan Caron works with Laconia Airport’s ACE Academy students as they learn about aviation and technology. Caron was recently named Civil Air Patrol Teacher of the Year.
LACONIA — Dan Caron has been named the 2013 Civil Air Patrol Aerospace Education Teacher of the Year. Caron, a technology and engineering teacher

at Bedford High School, is also a member of the Civil Air Patrol (CAP). Additionally, he serves as the director of WinnAero’s Aviation Career Education (ACE) Academy at Laconia Municipal Airport located in Gilford. WinnAero is a youth-based aviation organization that promotes science, technology, engineering and math through the use of aviation. The CAP’s Teacher of the Year Award is a nationallevel award that recognizes a teacher member for outstanding accomplishments in aerospace education and for possessing the attributes expected from our country’s teachers. Caron was nominated by Col. Bill Moran, who is commander of the Hawk Squadron of the CAP, which is based at Laconia Airport. Commenting on choosing to nominate Caron for the award, Moran said, “Dan is energetic and dedicated to youth development especially in aerospace. He’s trustworthy, well organized, and is a wealth of information. He constantly provides interactive processes for learning and knows how to teach and hold the students’ attention.” Surprisingly, Caron didn’t have a goal of becoming a teacher when he graduated from high school. Caron enrolled at Keene State University and became fascinated with technology and engineering when he saw his roommate returning with interesting projects he had constructed for his technology and shop classes. Soon afterward Caron decided to become a teacher and focused on the subjects that interested him: science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). The unpretentious school teacher says he is tremendously honored by being named as the CAP’s Teacher of the Year. His face lights up when he talks about being a teacher. “I love teaching. It’s never the same; there’s always something different I can work on,” he said. Susan Mallet, CAP youth development program coordinator on the national level, described Caron as “the epitome of ‘teacher’ — passionately and professionally facilitating, partnering, and empowering youth for a future that will bring pride to themselves and benefit the nation.” from preceding page towards successfully advancing a legal opposition to the proposed Wild Meadows wind farm facility if and when its developer, Iberdrola Renewables submits a site permit application to the New Hampshire Site Evaluation Committee.

LRGH receives grant for literacy program aimed at young children LACONIA — LRGHealthcare recently announced that Reach Out and Read program was awarded a grant from Target Corporation. In recognition of the efforts of LRGHealthcare in promoting childhood literacy, the grant will help purchase books for our Reach Out and Read program. “Reach Out and Read engages each child’s doctor to speak to parents about the importance of reading aloud to their children every day. The doctor gives every child ages six months through five years a brand new culturally and developmentally appropriate book to take home and keep,” said Karen Davis of LRGHealthcare’s Practice Management Department. The grant is part of Target’s ongo-
ing efforts to build strong, safe and healthy communities across the country. These efforts include Target’s long history of giving five percent of its profit to communities, which today equals more than $4 million every week. As part of this commitment, Target is on track to give $1 billion for education by the end of 2015 to help kids learn, schools teach and parents and caring adults engage. “At Target, we are committed to serving local communities where we do business,” said Laysha Ward, President, Community Relations, Target. “That’s why we are proud to partner with LRGHealthcare as we work to strengthen communities and enrich the lives of our guests and team members.”

Quilted works of art on display at Belknap Mill
LACONIA — Imagine using fabric to create quilts that are true works of art. Such is the creative life of Sue Harris of Gilford. Her unique and creative quilts depict such subject matter as giant dolphins, mesmerizing patterns and colorful shapes and women dressed in eye-catching garments. Harris has a talent for turning fabric into wall sized quilts and smaller fabric pieces, all in beautiful colors from deep reds to throbbing yellows to cooling blues and other hues. Not only do the colors in her quilts catch the viewer’s eye, the patterns are also original works of art that feature all sorts of subjects, from people to fish to animals. In a unique exhibit on the first-floor gallery of the Belknap Mill, located at 25 Beacon St. East in Laconia, Harris will offer Quilt Visions. The exhibit runs from August 13 to September 2 and will showcase about 30 quilts for the public’s enjoyment. Harris ran a small quilting shop in the Lakes Region in the past, but moved to Alaska after some life changes; she has returned to the area where she now resides in Gilford and continues to create large and smaller quilts. Her studio is a place where fabrics take on new life in quilted scenes. “I hope to teach all aspects of quilting again and I am looking forward to sharing my quilted pieces in this exhibit,” Sue explains. During the show, Sue will be in the gallery for quilting demonstrations on August 20 and 27 from 1 to 3 p.m. An opening reception will be held Friday, August 16 from 6 to 8 p.m. with light refreshments. Quilt Visions is free and open to the public Monday – Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.; other hours are by chance or appointment. At left: Quilt by Sue Harris. (Courtesy photo)

Get Fuzzy
By Holiday Mathis
tidbits will get plenty of attention now (unless you keep things under wraps). CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’re in another one of your curious and experimental moods. It’s the perfect time to dabble, as you only half-want things. Avoid concrete promises, and stick to the sparkling fantasy of vague notions. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’re constantly filtering your thoughts -- claiming this one, heaping that one onto the rejection pile. Some rejected thoughts will wiggle out of the pile and back into your consciousness. You’ll file them differently this time around. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your mind is in expansion mode, and your mouth is still trying to catch up. It’s like part of you is working on inventing the new language you will be speaking in the next phase of your life. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Aug. 15). Your love is returned! This will start your new solar cycle off on a harmonious note. You’re getting really savvy in your financial, political and professional dealings. September sees you in the ultimate negotiating position. October is pure fun. You’ll grow through taking personal responsibility in November and May. Sagittarius and Aries people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 3, 24, 38, 1 and 18.
by Chad Carpenter
ARIES (March 21-April 19). The clarity you have now will lead you to make sound decisions. You breezily compartmentalize information, tasks, emotions and any other input that comes your way. This ability is a rare gift. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The different questions you have all seem to lead to the same answer again and again. It’s a good indication that you are resisting the truth in some way. Why don’t you want to hear it? GEMINI (May 21-June 21). People want to be near you now, and if they don’t get the chance, they will be disappointed. Be aware of those around you and the popularity you might wield with them. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Playing all day would be a fun option, but unfortunately, your many responsibilities prevent it. This is one of those days when you actually think about what else you would be doing if you weren’t such a mature person. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The emotions run hot around you. Perhaps people are responding to your passion. The words spoken from a defensive person will be more extreme than the person actually feels. Calm people are more likely to be sincere. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You will get your needs met without any kind of aggression whatsoever. The requests you make are so of-the-moment that you don’t need a method or rule for asking. You’ll do what feels right. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). If you have someone to whom you are willing to confess the foolish things you do (and who doesn’t do foolish things?), then count yourself among the blessed: You love and are loved. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). A culture is being created around you as you hang around the same people every day. Maybe you’re not entirely thrilled with it, but you’ll look back later and call these times “the good old days.” SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). People say they don’t need drama in their lives, but they sure do love to buzz about the drama in other people’s lives. Your own interesting

Page 22 — THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Thursday, August 15, 2013
––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Thursday, Aug. 15, the 227th day of 2013. There are 138 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On August 15, 1969, the Woodstock Music and Art Fair opened in upstate New York. On this date: In 1057, Macbeth, King of Scots, was killed in battle by Malcolm, the eldest son of King Duncan, whom Macbeth had slain. In 1483, the Sistine Chapel was consecrated by Pope Sixtus IV. In 1769, Napoleon Bonaparte was born on the island of Corsica. In 1812, the Battle of Fort Dearborn took place as Potawatomi warriors attacked a U.S. military garrison of about 100 people. (Most of the garrison was killed, while the remainder were taken prisoner.) In 1914, the Panama Canal opened to traffic. In 1935, humorist Will Rogers and aviator Wiley Post were killed when their airplane crashed near Point Barrow in the Alaska Territory. In 1945, in a radio address, Japan’s Emperor Hirohito announced that his country had accepted terms of surrender for ending World War II. In 1947, India became independent after some 200 years of British rule. In 1961, as workers began constructing a Berlin Wall made of concrete, East German soldier Conrad Schumann leapt to freedom over a tangle of barbed wire. In 1971, President Richard Nixon announced a 90-day freeze on wages, prices and rents. Bahrain declared its independence from Britain. In 1974, a gunman attempted to shoot South Korean President Park Chung-hee during a speech; although Park was unhurt, his wife was struck and killed, along with a teenage girl. (The gunman was later executed.) In 1998, 29 people were killed by a car bomb that tore apart the center of Omagh (OH’-mah), Northern Ireland; a splinter group calling itself the Real IRA claimed responsibility. Ten years ago: Bouncing back from the largest blackout in U.S. history, cities from the Midwest to Manhattan restored power to millions of people. Five years ago: Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili grudgingly signed a U.S.-backed truce with Russia, even as he denounced the Russians as invading barbarians and accused the West of all but encouraging them to overrun his country. Michael Phelps won his sixth gold medal with his sixth world record, in the 200meter individual medley at the Summer Olympics. American Nastia Liukin won the gold in women’s gymnastics; friend and teammate Shawn Johnson was second. Record producer Jerry Wexler, who coined the term “rhythm and blues,” died in Sarasota, Fla. at age 91. National Public Radio commentator Leroy Sievers, who’d shared his struggle with cancer, died at his Maryland home at age 53. One year ago: Felix Hernandez pitched the Seattle Mariners’ first perfect game and the 23rd in baseball history, overpowering the Tampa Bay Rays in a brilliant 1-0 victory; it was the third perfect game and sixth no-hitter of the season. The United States broke a 75-year winless streak at Mexico’s intimidating Azteca Stadium with an 80th minute goal and a series of saves that delivered a 1-0 victory.

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Thursday, August 15, 2013— Page 23
ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Annie: My husband has a 12-year-old daughter from a previous marriage. We don’t get to see “Emma” too often. She lives with her mother in another state, and Mom keeps her summers so packed that she cannot visit. The problem is that this year Emma visited my fatherin-law for an entire week, and he didn’t once let her do anything with us. It was very upsetting. My husband and I have three young children together, and Grandpa spends NO time with them at all. Yet he managed a week with Emma and didn’t include us. Our 5-year-old was hurt that Grandpa spends time with his older sister but never does anything with him. Can I do anything about Grandpa playing favorites? It kills me to see my children hurt because of it. I also want my children to have a good relationship with their half-sister. I’ve talked to my husband, but he doesn’t know what to do, either, and it’s causing a great deal of stress in our home. -- Upset Daughter-in-Law Dear Upset: You surely realize that Grandpa “hoards” Emma in an effort to make up for the divorce and also to be sure that his ex-daughter-in-law will continue to allow the girl to visit. Your husband should speak to his father and explain how hurt the other grandchildren are that he doesn’t spend any time with them. You both should encourage Grandpa to come over more often. More importantly, if your husband doesn’t get to see Emma because Mom is deliberately preventing it, he should speak to his lawyer about amending the visitation arrangements. Dear Annie: I am an older single guy and have a question. The women I’ve dated repeatedly say, “I can’t make a deci-
sion, because I don’t know where I will be in five years.” Now, we’re not talking about marriage proposals, but about other decisions that often come up. I’ve never heard a guy say something like that. No one knows where they will be in five years, and the decisions one makes today often affect that. Is this some form of decision avoidance? -- Just Curious Dear Curious: What type of questions are you asking that provoke them to contemplate their lives five years down the road? Either they believe your questions require some type of commitment they aren’t willing to give, or they are trying to tell you that a commitment from you is exactly what they are looking for. Dear Annie: I’m writing in reply to “KC,” who was horrified to discover that her ancestors owned slaves and didn’t know how to explain it to her mixed-race nieces. I believe that KC is very much afraid that somehow, after many, many generations, her family history will taint her as a racist. My family, too, fought and died in the Civil War on both sides. Some were slave owners. The youngest died from neglect and disease at age 17 in a Union POW camp. There has been a member of my family in every war since the American Revolution. My son is the seventh generation serving in the military, and I’m proud of my family history. Just because some owned slaves does not make me a racist. I know right from wrong. I live in a culturally diverse neighborhood and have close friends of many races. People should not erase the bad parts of their family history. They are just facts, not a reflection of who they are now. Thanks for letting me have a voice. -- K.
