LACONIA – The good news is the stock of available houses for sale in Central New Hampshire is dropping; the not-so-good news is that while more houses are being sold the median selling

BELMONT — A two-car head-on collision at 7:12 a.m.

Thursday on Route 106 sent two local residents by ambulance to hospitals.

Cherie Shaw, 27, of Gilford was transported by ambulance to Dartmouth Hitchcock Medial Center in Lebanon with serious injuries and Aaron Downing, 28, of Belmont was taken to LRGH with minor injuries.

Because of the weather, the DHART helicopter see WrECK page 15

price is not rising.

Roy Sanborn of Four Seasons Sotheby’s International Realty and a regular Daily Sun columnist said a good number of sales in the Lakes Region are in the low range, bringing down the median price.

“The nicer, high-end stuff is still waiting for buyers,” Sanborn said.

As of June 1, Lakes Region current inventory levels, said Sanborn, represent a 15-month supply of houses with 1,190 homes for sales. On June 1, 2012,

there was an 18.5-month supply of available homes for sale.

As the number of available units shrinks typically the price of the remaining units rises.

However the average asking price as of June 1 was $493,820 see HOUSiNG page 9

The Laconia Department of Public Works (DPW) staged this photo for The Daily Sun on Thursday in order to dramatize what will and will not be acceptable with the start of a new mandatory recycling program on Monday morning. Residents who are used to placing trash enclosed only in plastic bags at the curb must realize that is no longer acceptable. All general trash must be placed in hard containers like those on the right. The first in line is a 30-gallon container and the second will hold 45 gallons. Any size is acceptable as long as the total in any given week does not exceed 60 gallons. The two containers on the far right are for recyclables. The green bin like the one on top is available free of charge from DPW. The larger container below will hold 64 gallons and is available for purchase at DPW headquarters of Bisson Ave. for $25.

Start of mandatory recycling also means uncontained trash bags may no longer be left curbside for pickup

By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA — When the mandatory recycling program beings on Monday, July 1, city residents will not only be required to separate recyclables from trash but also to bag all their trash in a limited

number of solid containers. Otherwise the trash will not be collected.

All trash must be bagged in a container, typically a trash can. Bagged trash not in a container and loose trash will not be collected.

The number of containers will be limited. Single-family homes and duplex

QUITO, Ecuador (AP) — President Barack Obama tried to cool the international frenzy over Edward Snowden on Thursday as Ecuador stepped up its defiance and said it was preemptively rejecting millions in trade benefits that it could lose by taking in the fugitive from his limbo in a Moscow airport.

The country seen as likeliest to shelter the National Security Agency leaker seemed determined to prove it could handle any repercussions, with three of its highest officials calling an early-morning news conference to “unilaterally and irrevocably renounce” $23 million a year in lowered tariffs on products such as roses, shrimp and frozen vegetables.

Fernando Alvarado, the secretary of communications for leftist President Rafael Correa, sarcastically suggested the U.S. use the money to train government employees to respect human rights.

Obama, meanwhile, sought to downplay the international chase for the man he called “a 29-year-old hacker” and see SNOWDEN page 3

Hernandez denied bail; police claim new discoveries James Sultan told the judge.

But Bristol County Assistant District Attorney Bill McCauley called the evidence in the June 17 slaying of Odin Lloyd overwhelming and said police had made discoveries Wednesday when they searched a condo Hernandez leased and a Hummer registered to him that was parked there.

A jogger found Lloyd’s body in a remote area of an industrial park about a mile from Hernandez’s home in North Attle-

FALL RIVER, Mass. (AP) — Former New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez, charged with murder for what prosecutors say was the execution-style killing of a friend near his house, was denied bail on Thursday.

Hernandez’s lawyer argued that his celebrity status means even if he wanted to flee he couldn’t and that the case against him is circumstantial.

“He wants to clear his name,” lawyer

borough 10 days ago. Lloyd was a semipro football player from Boston who was dating the sister of Hernandez’s fiancee.

Prosecutors said Hernandez orchestrated the killing because Lloyd talked to the wrong people at a nightclub. Hernandez, a 2011 Pro Bowl selection who signed a five-year contract with the Patriots worth $40 million, could face life in prison if convicted. see HERNANDEZ page 6

Friend on phone says Trayvon’s encounter with Zimmerman racially charged SANFORD, Fla. (AP) — George Zimmerman’s defense attorney insisted during several testy exchanges with an important prosecution witness Thursday that Trayvon Martin injected race into a confrontation with the neighborhood watch volunteer and insinuated the young woman was not believable because of inconsistencies in her story.

However, 19-year-old Rachel Jeantel stood firm in her testimony about the

night Zimmerman shot the unarmed black 17-year-old after a fight that Jeantel said she overheard while on the phone with Martin. Jeantel has said Martin told her he was being followed by a “creepy-ass cracker” — implying Martin was being followed by a white man because of his race.

Zimmerman identifies as Hispanic. Race has permeated nationwide discussions of the case since the February 2012 shooting, which prompted nationwide protests and

claims from critics that police took too long to arrest Zimmerman.

The neighborhood watch volunteer has pleaded not guilty to second-degree murder and says he acted in self-defense.

Defense attorney Don West also zeroed in on slight differences among three different accounts of what happened before Martin’s killing, in an apparent effort to discredit her. Jeantel has described what see ZIMMERMAN page 10

DAKAR, Senegal (AP) — Laying bare a clash of cultures, President Barack Obama on Thursday urged African leaders to extend equal rights to gays and lesbians but was bluntly rebuked by Senegal’s president, who said his country “still isn’t ready” to decriminalize homosexuality.

Obama opened his weeklong trip to Africa one day after the U.S. Supreme

Court expanded federal benefits for married gay couples. In his first in-person comments on the ruling, Obama said the court’s decision marked a “proud day for America.” He pressed for similar recognition for gays in Africa, wading into a sensitive area in a region where dozens of countries outlaw homosexuality and a few punish violations with death.

“When it comes to how the state treats people, how the law treats people, I believe that everybody has to be treated equally,” Obama said during a news conference with Senegalese President Macky Sall at the grand presidential palace in Dakar.

But Sall gave no ground. Senegal is “very tolerant,” he assured Obama, but is “still see OBAMA page 15

Treasury inspector general says IRS screened few ‘progressive’ groups seeking tax exemption WASHINGTON (AP) — A Treasury Department inspector general says the Internal Revenue Service screened only a few progressive groups seeking tax-exempt status for possible political activity, as a clash escalated between that investigator and congressional Democrats who called his probe of the agency misleading.

In a letter to lawmakers released Thursday, J. Russell George said his investigation found “progressives” was not among the inappropriate terms IRS screeners used to decide if groups merited close scrutiny for political work. Too much political activity can disqualify an applicant for a tax-exempt designation.

Nonetheless, George wrote that “additional research” by his investigators found that of 298 applicants for tax-exempt status that the IRS flagged for possible political involvement between 2010 and 2012, six had “progress” or “progressive” in their names. Another 14 cases with “progress” or “progressive” in the group’s name were not sidetracked for additional examination, he wrote.

Thirty percent of such groups got special attention because of possible political work, George wrote.

“In comparison, our audit found that 100 percent of the tax-exempt applications with Tea Party, Patriots or 9/12 in their names were processed” for potential political activity, he said.

That did not satisfy Rep. Sander Levin of Michigan, top Democrat on the House Ways and Means Committee.

The term “progressives” did appear on some lists, released earlier this week by Levin, that also included “Tea Party” and that IRS workers used to

watch for groups that might merit tough screening. But George’s letter noted that “Progressives” appeared on a different part of that list, and said that such groups were sent to different screeners than the ones who processed tea party applications.

Levin criticized George for not revealing the involvement of progressive groups or the second set of screeners until now. He said George’s report should have explored those avenues.

“The failure of the IG’s audit to acknowledge these facts is a fundamental flaw in the foundation of the investigation and the public’s perception of this issue,” said Levin, using the abbreviation for inspec-

tor general.

Democrats have complained that George’s investigation was one-sided. George’s report, released in May, detailed IRS mistreatment of conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status and was released days after the IRS acknowledged and apologized for those activities.

Levin and other Democrats have argued the public has been presented with an unbalanced view of the IRS’ activities, with a narrative about mistreatment of conservatives that some Republicans have used, without foundation, to suggest direction from the Obama administration.

SNOWDEN from page 2 lower the temperature of an issue that has raised tensions between the U.S. and uneasy partners Russia and China. Obama said in Senegal that the damage to U.S. national security has already been done and his top focus now is making sure it can’t happen again.

“I’m not going to have one case with a suspect who we’re trying to extradite suddenly be elevated to the point where I’ve got to start doing wheeling and dealing and trading on a whole host of other issues, simply to get a guy extradited so he can face the justice system,” Obama said at a joint news conference with Senegal’s President Macky Sall.

While the Ecuadorean government appeared angry over U.S. threats of punishment if it accepts Snowden, there were also mixed signals about how eager it was to grant asylum. For days, officials here have been blasting the U.S. and praising Snowden’s leaks of NSA eavesdropping secrets as a blow for

global human rights.

But they also have repeatedly insisted that they are nowhere close to making a decision on whether Snowden can leave Moscow, where he is believed to be holed up in an airport transit zone, for refuge in this oil-rich South American nation.

“It’s a complex situation, we don’t know how it’ll be resolved,” Correa told a news conference Thursday in his first public comments on the case aside from a handful of postings on Twitter.

The Ecuadorean leader said that in order for Snowden’s asylum application to be processed, he would have to be in Ecuador or inside an Ecuadorean Embassy, “and he isn’t.” Another country would have to permit Snowden to transit its territory for that requirement to be met, Correa said.

WikiLeaks, which has been aiding Snowden, announced earlier he was en route to Ecuador and had received a travel document.

Jim Hightower

Serve Wall Street or serve the poor?

Thank God for Congress, right?

When things get out of balance in America, we can always count on our legislative stalwarts to recalibrate the scales of justice.

Take greed, for example. The barons of Wall Street, whose raw greed and casino scams wrecked our real economy five years ago, are back to shoving great gobs of bonus pay into their pockets. Meanwhile, the middle class remains decimated, and millions of workaday Americans who were knocked all the way down into poverty are still stuck there. In this nation of fabulous wealth, our poverty numbers are shocking and scandalous: 50 million people are officially poor; another 51 million are “near poor.” A third of our country!

You’ll be pleased to know, then, that only last week, U.S. House members turned their legislative guns on the greed that’s sapping the moral vitality of our society. Unfortunately, their aim was a bit off.

Instead of popping the privileged, they hit the most unprivileged: families who need food stamps to make ends meet.

The food stamp program is out of control, they shrieked, noting that it’s been expanding even as the unemployment rate has been coming down. Yoo-hoo, knuckleheads, the jobless rate has ticked down largely because job-seekers have become so discouraged by the absence of opportunities that they’ve quit looking. Plus, getting a job no longer gets you out of poverty — just ask the barista who’s making your next latte about the joys of working for poverty pay. Food stamp rolls have reached record numbers, because — guess what? — there are record numbers of Americans in poverty!

Yet, the House called for cutting some $2 billion a year (and 2 million Americans) out of the program.

On June 20, however, the members balked — not because the cut was too severe, but because it was not enough for tea party Repubs, who have been demanding a total food stamp gut job, proposing to slash the program by $25 billion a year.

Also, the GOP majority lost the votes of nearly all Democrats by adding a couple of fiendish amendments to punish poor people for the crime of being poor.

One was to put additional work requirements on families seeking the food benefit. “We cannot continue to deny able-bodied people the dignity of work,” blathered a

worked-up know-nothing named Steve Southerland of Florida. Then, Rep. Michele Bachmann had a tempest in her teapot of a brain, offering her support of Southerland’s amendment in a sort of Biblical falsetto: “If anyone will not work, neither should he eat.”

Hello, Michele — that’s not exactly in keeping with the moral message of the Biblical Jesus. Nor is it in keeping with reality — today’s poverty does not stem from any unwillingness to work. Indeed, millions of food stamp recipients are working, but not being paid enough to put adequate groceries on the family table. And many more are in desperate search for jobs that aren’t there.

In fairness, though, let me note that House Republicans did try to give hard-hit families something extra in this legislation: drug testing. Following in lockstep with the Koch-funded American Legislative Exchange Council — which has been peddling this vile, insulting slap at poor people all around the country — the House majority added a urine-test provision to its bill. That really puts the mean in “demeaning” — and this from small government poseurs who piously decry government intrusion into people’s lives!

Once again, the tea party congress-critters should have used their ever-present Bibles for instruction, rather than just for thumping. They would’ve learned that Jesus, at the Sea of Galilee, distributed free fish and loaves to everyone there — with no pee-in-the-cup requirement. And if he had wanted to test whether anyone was on drugs, he would’ve passed cups to bankers first, then to lawmakers.

A society’s response to poverty is one measure that speaks directly to its essential character. In particular, a wealthy society’s nonchalant tolerance of poverty in its midst, the willingness of that society’s leaders to disregard the spread of poverty and the callous calculations by some that it is permissible and even profitable to denigrate those mired in poverty — these are three flashing indicators of a meltdown in our society’s moral core.

The radio commentator and former Texas Commissioner of Agriculture is author of seven books, including “There’s Nothing In the Middle of Road but Yellow Stripes and Dead Armadillos” and his new work, “Swim Against the Current: Even Dead Fish Can Go With The Flow”.)

LETTERS Say prayer for those who can only find the negative about U.S. To The Daily Sun, 1776 was a really great year, starting out with the people of New Hampshire declaring its independence from the British Crown and its oppressive government. A government denying its people their rights under common law and the Magna Carta denying the representation in governing. Not all of the British subjects in the colonies were so brave and clear minded as to realize that loosing their lives physically would be better than living them as slaves to the crown. It has been pointed out that for some it was a terrible year, but then that is speech come 230+years late. To say that, however we may read the history, is to say the idea that freedom from an oppressive ruler was a sad and lousy turn of events. To guess the mind of Washington! Thinking that it was the British which chased him and not he leading them to where he wanted them. To imagine only one Benedict Arnold, or that all of his officers gleefully submitted to Washington isn’t a good read of history. To suggest that troops deserted “taking their weapons with them” as if they were expected to leave them, further shows a lack of

understanding of the reality.

Washington managed to concentrate the majority of the British forces to the NY/NJ area and convinced Gen. Howe he “destroyed the continental army”.

Howe sent a lesser General Cornwallis, who was on Christmas holiday, to “chase” Washington after the “guns for hire” Hessians were defeated. As a later general said, “War is Hell”, he might have added, “and it knows no holiday”.

Washington was not a narrow minded, clueless individual who gave orders and stood back; he learned and listened, kept his own consul, he knew that men fighting for their freedom were to be led and he stood with them.

As far as Washington’s Army being ill-clothed and sick, it was the continental government that didn’t hold up to its promises, (nothing has really changed since).

Be thankful we still can celebrate the birth of “our” nation; and say a prayer for those billions in the world who don’t have such freedoms and a prayer for those in this nation who can only find the negative and want the rest of us to accept it as truth.

Wind turbines not synchronized, they can ‘thump’ together or not To The Daily Sun, People from other wind farm communities continue to tell us “you don’t want wind turbines in your community” They do not create local jobs, they will encroach on existing biomass and hydro plants, property values will decline, turbines will deter tourists, turbines are noisy and will be seen — day and night — for miles in every direction.

People live here, retire here, vacation here because of the natural beauty. I come here to breathe the fresh air and see the natural landscape from our family home. These proposed wind farms will forever ruin the beautiful views of the mountains I love.

Make no mistake about it — Mount Cardigan State Park is basically the only tourism draw for Alexandria.

Your new neighbors (454-ft. - 500-ft. turbines) will significantly reduce your tourism levels and your property values. Four reasons why: noise,

visual, safety, and essential character.

Wind turbines are not synchronized, they can “thump” together or separately, creating an unpredictable or chaotic acoustic pattern. Turbines will line your mountaintops and destroy the natural views. Turbines will be established on trails leading in and out of the park. Visitors that hike here will think twice about returning to this “industrial overlay”.

This is pristine property — most of us bought property here for the peace and quiet and unobstructed views.

These wind farms will change everything.

I am shocked that the State of New Hampshire is not fighting to protect the Lakes Regions — at all costs.

Everything man does has an impact on the land. Blasting away mountaintops will have a direct effect on our waters below — and the waters below are our watershed.

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Friday, June 28, 2013 — Page 5

LETTERS Why do liberals cling so tenaciously to their deck of race cards?

To the editor, The concept of this country moving into a post racial society will be in the news again with the onset of the Trayvon Martin/George Zimmerman trial. There was great hope that our president would bring about the reality of this hope for a post racial society.

Barack Obama got off to a rocky start when he accused Cambridge police sergeant James Crowley of “acting stupidly” in arresting professor Henry “Skip” Gates Jr. Our president uttered this indictment before he knew any of the facts.

President Obama proclaimed to the world that if he had a son he would look like Trayvon Martin. The facts were not known then and will finally come out during the trial. The rationale for making this statement was because it brought up deep emotions for him. Perhaps, but how would such a statement bring this country closer to the hope for racial unity as so eloquently stated by Martin Luther King Jr on June 23, 1963 in Detroit, Michigan during the “Walk to Freedom March”. That was when he first spoke of judging someone by the content of their character and not the color of their skin, two months before his “I Have a Dream” speech. How sad that as we celebrate the 50 year anniversary of his inspiring words, it is the army of progressives who are holding this country back from having this dream come to full fruition.

Rather than having that same hope for a post racial society, it would appear the left would prefer keeping that same racist bogeyman around to provide an endless supply of fuel for their progressive agenda. Ridiculous some would say. Then how to explain the bodacious, jumping to conclusions remark by Representative Frederica Wilson (D-Fla.). Soon after Trayvon was killed she shouted, “Trayvon was hunted down like a rabid dog, shot in the street and racially profiled”. She knew none of the facts.

How else to explain the mainstream media’s unconscionable behavior in misleading the public in the immediate aftermath of this awful tragedy.

ABC asserted that Zimmerman didn’t appear to show signs of a struggle, which was totally false. NBC edited the audiotape which the Today show breathlessly played again and again on their morning show — “He looks black”. Deliberately editing out the fact that the dispatcher had asked Zimmerman — “Is he black, white or Hispanic?”

How else to explain the media misrepresentation’s of Martin and Zimmerman. They repeatedly showed pictures of a 12 year old Trayvon rather than the 17 year old, six foot Martin. Zimmerman was portrayed as

a cop “wannabe” by reporting that he made 46 911 calls within a year when it was actually over a period of 8 years.

In March, CNN told the world that it seemed Zimmerman had uttered the disgusting racial slur “coon”. When the reconstruction was completed, CNN had to retract their shameless assertion. Seems that Zimmerman had uttered “(expletive) punks” rather than “(expletive) coon”. Oops.

The malicious, stupid, bigoted media even attempted to portray Zimmerman as a “white person”. When that didn’t fly, they came up with a new ethnic designation, “white Hispanic”, since his mother is a Peruvian immigrant. The media did a marvelous job of burying the fact that Zimmerman has African American friends and relatives and has spent time tutoring black kids. When a police officer’s son beat up a black, homeless man and was not charged, Zimmerman circulated a petition asking that justice be done. I’m betting few readers know this about Zimmerman.

Between these examples of editorial malpractice, the Dept. of Justices’ racial agenda as exposed in J. Christian Adams book, “Injustice” and the actions of this administration, there can be only one outcome in this month long trial that will satisfy the left. George Zimmerman better be found guilty of killing Trayvon Martin because he wanted to and not because his own life was in danger. President Obama’s minions and the complicit media have all but assured this nation that if the verdict is “not guilty”, riots in the streets will likely occur. Those of us who genuinely desire a post racial society want the truth found out and justice to be served. If Zimmerman is guilty, then put him away for life. If innocent, he deserves to have his life and reputation returned to him without storefront windows being broken and cars set on fire.

I asked these questions over three years ago when I first started writing letters and I’ll ask them again. Why do modern day liberals cling so tenaciously to their deck of race cards?

What would Martin Luther King Jr and Rosa Parks say to them? When can we truly begin to treat everyone by the content of their character and not the color of their skin? When will the Reverends Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton, the NAACP and the Congressional Black Caucus be willing to forgo their outdated agendas and help bring about Reverend King’s dream?

I am 64 years old and would so love to see that happen in my lifetime so I can celebrate this momentous new phase in racial equality with my children and grandchildren.

drain. Now, rather than spending my gambling allowance in N.H. and keeping local people working, its off to Connecticut or Rhode Island. Stupid!

Clare Persson named 2013 recipient of Annette Schmitt Unsung Hero Award

By RogeR Amsden

LACONIA — Clare Persson was presented with the 13th annual Annette P. Schmitt Unsung Hero Award at a meeting of Better Together Lakes Region at Laconia Middle School Thursday afternoon.

Persson was praised for her work as chair of the Middle School PTO, the Stand Up For A Drug Free Laconia initiative as well as with the Laconia Human Relations Committee, the School Improvement and Health and Wellness Committee and for her work in helping establishing a mentoring program in the Laconia school system. ‘’She is an individual who deeply cares about our community and stays with initiatives through their completion. She willingly gives her time, effort, organizational skills and passion to ensure that young people

have access and opportunity to bright futures,’’ said Bud Martin, former Laconia District Court Juvenile Division judge.

A $1,000 donation from the Annette P. Schmitt Foundation will be made to a charity of Persson’s choice.

Persson accepted the award on behalf of all those she has worked with in community initiatives and said that the credit for the award goes to them.

The award is presented annually by the Annette P. Schmitt Trust and the Granite United Way and honors someone who has worked behind the scenes on behalf of children and families in the Lakes Region.

The award is given in memory of Schmitt, a woman from the Hanover and Lebanon area who at her death awarded a large portion of her estate to improving the lives of children and families in the Lakes Region.

HERNANDEZ from page 2 In laying out more of the government’s case Thursday, McCauley said prosecutors believe that the murder weapon was a .45-caliber Glock and that a gun Hernandez is seen holding on his home surveillance video, a weapon they haven’t found, appears to be a Glock.

The prosecutor said that inside the Hummer investigators recovered an ammunition clip for .45-caliber bullets and that ammunition was found inside the condo. McCauley said a photograph had emerged online of Hernandez holding a Glock.

District Attorney Sam Sutter would not be specific when asked when the photo was taken, saying only that the information would emerge with the continuing investigation.

Hernandez’s lawyer said as far as he knew there was no eyewitness testimony and the prosecution had not given evidence that shows who shot Lloyd or whether there was a plan to kill him. He said Hernandez has no criminal record, owns a home and lives with his 8-month-old daughter and fiancee.

“Mr. Hernandez is not just a football player but is one of the best football players in the United States of America,” Sultan said, adding, “He’s young man who is extremely accomplished and hardworking in his chosen profession.”

Hernandez appeared in court with his hands cuffed in front of him and occasionally looked at his fiancee during Thursday’s bail hearing. She cried when Bristol Superior Court Judge Renee Dupuis denied the request, but Hernandez showed little emotion.

The judge said that it is rare for someone charged with first-degree murder to get bail and that Hernandez had the means to flee if he chose to do so. She acknowledged the prosecution’s case was circumstantial but said it was “very, very strong” and called the scenario the prosecution described “cold-blooded.”

The Patriots cut Hernandez shortly after police arrested him on Wednesday.

That day, authorities in Connecticut also made an arrest in connection with Lloyd’s slaying. New Britain State’s Attorney Brian Preleski said see next page

2 local nonprofits were unaware the other was also going to be asking county to sponsor block grant application

By Michael Kitch LACONIA — Neither the Boys and Girls Club of the Lakes Region nor Genesis Behavioral Health was aware that the other intended to ask the Belknap County Commission to sponsor its application for a federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG).

Both are seeking $500,000, which places the commission, which can sponsor only one grant in that amount, in the position of choosing between the two organizations or dividing the funds between them. The deadline for applications is July 27 and the commission has scheduled a public hearing on the requests for July 10.

The Boys and Girls Club, which has paid $190,000 toward purchasing St..

James Episcopal Church for $700,000, seeks the funds to defray the balance of $510,000. Genesis would apply the funds to a financing package to acquire and renovate the building at 22 Airport Way in Gilford formerly occupied

by Southern New Hampshire University. The building is listed at $550,000 and an estimated $1.9-million will be required to renovate to house the administrative offices and clinical operations of the community mental health agency.

Each year the New Hampshire Community Development Finance Authority (CDFA) receives between $8-million and $10-million from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for distribution as grants to municipalities and counties. Nonprofit agencies like the Boys and Girl Club and Genesis may apply for CDBGs through a municipality or country, which serves as a sponsor.

Kristen Welch of Genesis said that because the property it seeks to acquire is in Gilford, the agency had no choice but to seek the sponsorship of the county. Grant applications are scored competively and Gilford’s statistical profiile as a “wealthy” community would work against any application the town sponsored.

Cheryl Avery, executive director of the Boys & Girls Club said that the organization is seeking to broaden its reach beyond Laconia to the Lakes Region and therefore applied through the county. However, she said that “we both feel bad about what has happened” and added that the club “has not ruled out approaching the city (to be its sponsor).”

With the deadline for applications fast approaching, no other organization has asked the city to sponsor its grant application.

The CDFA sets aside $100,000 to fund feasibility studies and another $500,000 for unforeseen emergencies then splits the remaining balance of the allocation, applying one half to economic development and the other to housing and public facilities. The Boys and Girls Club and Genesis would likely fall into the category of public facilities, which includes “water and sewer system improvements, transitional and homeless shelters, sidewalks, handicapped access, and neighborhood or community centers that provide public services to low and moderate income people.”

The Boys & Girls Club attempted to use a county-sponsored CDBG to fund the purchase of The Citizen building on Fair Street several years ago but missed the application deadline due to a meeting had to be postponed.

from preceding page Thursday that investigators arrested 27-year-old Carlos Ortiz in Hernandez’ hometown, Bristol, Conn., as part of the murder probe.

Authorities charged Ortiz as a fugitive from justice, and he agreed to be transferred to Massachusetts. Prison records show he was being held on $1.5 million bail at a Hartford, Conn., jail, but his public defender, Alfonzo Sirica, declined to comment about the case.

On Thursday, residents of a condo complex in Franklin described seeing a two-day police search of the unit that neighbors believed Hernandez was renting. Carol Bailey, who lives next door to the two-bedroom unit, said police removed items from the third-floor condo and asked her ques-

tions about its occupants. She said a new tenant of the unit told her in May that he was moving in with his cousin and she realized later that the second man was the Patriots player.

“I thought, ‘This is Aaron Hernandez. He’s renting a place here so he can have some peace and quiet,’” Bailey said Thursday.

She said she didn’t see the two men often but Hernandez always had a hoodie pulled up when she saw him.

“I think all of us who recognized who it was didn’t want to invade his privacy,” she said.

Bailey said police towed a black Hummer with expired, temporary Ohio tags from the condo on Wednesday.

Belmont’s Milpower Source partnering with community college to develop skilled manpower Ask entrepreneurs across the state and they’ll tell you advanced manufacturing has long been the unsung hero of the N.H. economy. Add just 100 jobs in the state’s largest economic sector, wrote the N.H. Center for Public Policy Studies in 2011, and you could see a total economic boost of $102 million a year, far exceeding the impact of other private industries.

The story is good for individual workers, too, with average weekly wages in the industry soaring to nearly $250 more than the average of wages in all other private N.H. industries. Thus, it might be a surprise to hear hiring managers say a major growth obstacle isn’t demand for products, but a workforce shortage.

The challenge? Over the last two decades, manufacturing in New Hampshire has morphed into a high-tech economic giant, but the science, technology, engineering and mathematics skills of job seekers have not kept up, hiring managers say.

And they need help.

That’s where the Community College System of NH, under the Trade Adjustment Assistance Community College and Career Training grant, has stepped in. Working in partnership with advanced manufacturers, each of the system’s colleges is expanding or developing new advanced manufacturing labs, equipment and curricula to directly meet the needs of the industry.

Milpower Source of Belmont is one of those partners. It’s a small company with a big job and since 1984, has been a global force in the design, manufacture and service of power supplies for aerospace, defense and commercial specifications.

While Milpower Source can boast of worldwide impact, its staff of fewer than 50 people has built strong working relationships and the company prides itself on a family atmosphere.

Here, we meet Jennifer Winfrey, manager of human resources for Milpower Source.

Q: Describe a product you manufacture and the effect it has on consumers’ lives.

A: Our uninterrupted power supplies (UPS) and converters have attracted clients like Northrop Grumman; Raytheon; Honeywell; U.S. Army

Navy and Air force; NASA; Boeing; and many others.

They are used in fighter jets, military ground vehicles, radars, tanks, missiles, unmanned aircrafts, ships and satellites.

Our family takes pride in knowing that we are supporting our troops throughout each of our work days, and Jennifer Winfrey is when you take your next trip human resources manager at Milpower Source on a Boeing 737, know we played a part in you reaching in Belmont, N.H. your destination safely.

Q: What does the future have in store for the Milpower Source workforce?

A: Many of the employees here at MPS have been with the company for a number of years — some since the company opened in 1984. While that’s of great benefit, it also raises concern.

Retirement is approaching for some of these longterm employees, and it’s difficult to find people with the right skills to satisfy our specific manufacturing needs.

Q: How have you partnered with Lakes Region Community College to help build the workforce?

A: To be successful in your position in life, you must be the solution to a problem. In New Hampshire’s Lakes Region, a lack of manufacturing manpower is a problem, and I firmly believe the advanced manufacturing program at Lakes Region Community College is a big step forward toward solving that problem. So, when the college reached out to us last year to invite us to take part in developing and updating advanced manufacturing curricula, we were happy to do whatever we could.

Q: Who should choose a career in advanced manufacturing in New Hampshire?

A: Simply, confident, hardworking, intelligent men and women who have a desire to create something and to be a part of something significant. There is a demand here.

from preceding page eown, whose front door is a few feet from the unit police searched, said there were things that struck her as strange even before that. She said someone had plugged an air freshener into a hallway wall outlet outside the unit and put a jar with fragrance sticks on the floor by the door, as if to mask an odor.

“I thought, ‘Why would two guys be worried about the smell out in the hall?’” she said.

Authorities have said trouble that led to Lloyd’s killing happened on June 14, when Lloyd went with Hernandez to a Boston nightclub.

“Apparently, Mr. Lloyd saw some people that he knew and began conversing with them,” McCauley said Thursday. “The defendant took exception to that.”

Previously, McCauley had said only that Hernandez had unspecified trouble with the people and that a few hours before the killing he told a friend he couldn’t trust anyone anymore.

Prosecutors have said that on June 16 Hernandez and two unidentified friends picked up Lloyd from his Boston home in a rented silver Nissan Maxima, took him to a remote area of an industrial park and shot him five times.

Lloyd, in the minutes before his death, sent a series of texts to his sister, who had seen him get into the car.

“Did you see who I was with?” said the first, at 3:07 a.m. June 17.

“Who?” she finally replied.

“NFL,” he texted back, then added: “Just so you know.”

Prosecutors have said they used cellphone tower data, text messages and surveillance video, including video from the security system Hernandez installed inside his home, to reconstruct his movements that night.

Laconia Housing Authority drawing on reserves to make up for cuts to subsidized rent funds

By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA — With austerity and sequestration the watchwords in Washington, public housing authorities across the country have been among the first to feel the pinch as federal funding shrinks and the Laconia Housing Authority (LHA) is no exception.

“The short answer is ‘yes,” Executive Director Dick Weaver said yesterday, “but the more in-depth answer is ‘when’ will we feel the impact.”

Weaver explained that the LHA administered two low-income housing programs in the city under the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) — subsidized public housing at Sunrise Towers on Baldwin Street and the housing voucher program known as Section 8. He said that while HUD is underfunding both programs, by drawing on its reserves, the LHA is able to maintain them at current levels, but only through 2014.

“Unless something changes,” he said, “we will have to cut back.”

The residents of the 98 units at Sunrise Towers, which is owned by the LHA, pay 30-percent of their income in rent and HUD provides a subsidy to the LHA to defray the balance of costs to operate the building. Weaver said that HUD is currently funding 72-percent of operating costs.

The LHA also provides 407 vouchers to lowfrom preceding page Mae and Freddie Mac the primary governmentsponsored buyers of mortgages in the country — and those rules are much more conservative than the free-wheeling days of the mid-2000s when lax mortgage-lending practices contributed heavily to the housing bubble and subsequent crash.

“Not only does your credit have to be perfect, your house has to be in very good condition,” said McCall, who noted appraisers now are nearly as strict as building inspectors.

“But, money is really inexpensive to borrow,” she said, saying that while rates should stay low for the short-term foreseeable future, it’s not likely to get any cheaper to buy a home in the area.

“Its a great time to come to New Hampshire,” she said. “With a job and decent credit, people can come here and get affordable housing.”

income individuals and families to supplement their rent to private landlords throughout the city. Tenants whose income qualifies them for the program contribute 30-percent of their income to rent and the average value of the vouchers is $535. Weaver said that HUD currently funds 69-percent of the cost of the voucher program.

Finally, Weaver said that HUD also funds a share of the LHA’s administrative costs.

“Our programs were already underfunded,” Weaver remarked, “and the sequestration added salt to the wound.”

Calling the situation “unsustainable,” he said that without action by Congress, in 2015 the LHA would be faced with deferring maintenance, reducing the number of vouchers and perhaps reducing staff to make ends meet. “We have managed our reserves well, but at some point without increased funding we will no longer be able to operate at current levels,” Weaver said. from preceding page she heard over the phone in a deposition; a letter to Martin’s mother; and an interview with the Martin family attorney. Among the differences highlighted by West: — In some accounts, she said race was an issue but not in others.

— Jeantel testified Wednesday that her friend’s last words were “Get off! Get off!” before Martin’s phone went silent. But on Thursday, under crossexamination, she conceded that she hadn’t mentioned that in her account of what happened to Martin’s mother, Sybrina Fulton. She had left out some details to spare Fulton’s feelings, and also because neither Fulton nor the Martin family attorney asked her directly about them, Jeantel said.

— After Martin asks why he is being followed, Zimmerman responds, “What are you doing around here?” in one account by Jeantel. In another account, according to West, she says Zimmerman said, “What are you talking about?”

Zimmerman, 29, could get life in prison if convicted of second-degree murder. Zimmerman followed Martin in his truck and called a police dispatch number before he and the teen got into a fight.

Zimmerman has said he opened fire only after the teenager jumped him and began slamming his head against the concrete sidewalk.

Center Harbor fire chief resigns suddenly; upset firefighters pressure Selectboard for repair

By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

CENTER HARBOR — Fire Chief John Schlemmer suddenly resigned yesterday morning, prompting the Board of Selectmen to convene one emergency meeting at 1:30 p.m. when chairman Dave Hughes said his resignation was “reluctantly accepted” and another at 6 p.m. to consider how to address the situation and hear the reaction of the firefighters.

Both Schlemmer and the selectmen declined to comment on the circumstances surrounding the resignation.

But, after members of the Fire Department urged the selectmen Harry Viens and Richard Drenkhahn to seek a reconciliation with Schlemmer they agreed to meet with him. Hughes, a captain in the department, has recused himself from the proceedings.

Meanwhile, Deputy Chief Mark Ledger will be in charge of the department. However, since Ledger, like many members of the department works out of town and is not available during the daytime, the Selectboard will seek to recruit an interim part-time chief.

Schlemmer attended the selectmen’s regularly scheduled meeting the night before, where the board agreed to convene a Fire Department Advisory Committee. The committee is charged with making recommendations about operations, staffing, training and equipment and prepare a strategic plan for cost efficient 24/7 fire and EMT coverage. Selectman Harry Viens said that the board accepted Schlemmer’s choice of members. Viens said that Schlemmer showed no sign of what was to come at the meeting and Schlemmer said yesterday that “the meeting went very well.”

Viens said that the selectmen were “flabbergasted” to learn that Schlemmer announced his resignation at the town offices at 8:15 a.m.

When the board met in the evening it was disclosed that the selectmen recently sent two letters to Schlemmer, one about a personnel matter, the content of which remains confidential and another requesting a list of all the fire permits issued. Selectman Richard Drenkhahn said that the board

had asked for the information more than once and when it was not forthcoming put their request in writing.

“It’s a huge loss to this town,” said one EMT to open the discussion between selectmen Viens and Drenkhahn and nearly a dozen members of the Fire Department. “I’ll be resigning as a lieutenant and a member, “ said Jared McGrath.

“Is there anything the selectmen can do to bring him back ?” asked Lieutenant Chris Conway.

Conway went to to tell the selectmen that Schlemmer, who is parttime chief expected to work 28 hours a week and last year was paid $28,557, was both the leader and anchor of the department. Few members of the call company are available during the day, he said, but the chief responds to calls at all hours of the day and night.”He was stepping over the line,” he said.

“Coming out without getting paid and he wouldn’t go on vacation because he wouldn’t go out of town.”

Others spoke of Schlemmer’s 40 years experience as a firefighter, which he shared with the members of his department. “He made my career,” said one firefighter. “Mine too,” echoed another.”

“Think about it,” Conway remarked.

“You’ve the fourth of July coming next week.” He reminded the selectmen that firefighters are required to be on hand during the loading and lighting of fireworks while EMT provided medical services for competitors in the road race.

Several firefighters openly doubted that the selectmen would be able to find a qualified part-time chief, let alone anyone of Schlemmer’s caliber willing to devote the time he gave to the position for the compensation it offers. “Nobody said this would be easy to fix,” Viens conceded.

“We’re asking you guys to sit down with him and work something out,” said Conway. “ “When someone resigns,” Viens explained, “it poisons the well. The trust factor is lost. The answer is sure.

We can sit down and do some horsetrading, but in the long-run I worry that this could blow up again.”

Tuition frozen at N.H. community colleges CONCORD (AP) — The board of trustees of the Community College System of New Hampshire says it is freezing tuition for the 2013-14 academic year at its seven colleges.

The trustees’ unanimous decision Thursday marks the fourth time since 2006 that New Hampshire’s community colleges have not raised tuition.

Ross Gittell, chancellor of the system, said holding the line on educational costs is critical to advance New Hampshire’s economy. He said

by keeping community colleges affordable, opportunities are expanded for New Hampshire residents to gain higher education and workforce skills, improve their lives and employment prospects and support economic growth in the state.

In-state tuition for 2013-14 will remain at $210 per credit. A community college student will pay $5,040 in annual tuition for a minimum fulltime course load.

SPORTS

Tennis program to offer coaching, competition for youth Granite State Kids, a not-for-profit Community Tennis Association under the USTA, has announced the formation of both a 14-and-under and 18-andunder Junior Tennis Teams.

This is the fourth year that Granite State Kids has run teams from the Lakes Region.

In 2011 the Lakes Region 18U was the state runner up and last year the 14-U team won the state title.

Coaching the teams this year will be Phil Eisenmann and Barbara Aichinger. Aichinger is on the USTA New Hampshire Board and long-time USTA Adult league player and has coached the Lakes Region Royals for the past four years. Phil is a member of the USTA, and a former high school tennis player, with more than 15 years of coaching experience, giving group and private instruction. Eisenmann is an enthusiastic coach, active in teaching children the basics of youth sports with his continued involvement with Gilmanton Youth Organization (GYO), Lakes Region United Soccer Club (LRU), and his co-founding of Lakes Region Tennis Association (LRTA).

Eisenmann, who teaches in many of the Park and Rec Tennis programs, explained why he is joining the Lakes Region Royals coaching staff: “While I continue to get new entrants to the Park and Rec programs, some of my players are getting better and that’s why I’m so excited about what is being developed with Granite State Kids.... Seems like a great next step for motivated, excited players.”

Aichinger added, “Our teams now are challenging the Southern New Hampshire teams and it’s great to see the progress our players have made.”

Practices will be once a week in the Gilford area and matches will be on Thursdays in either Manchester or Bedford. Matches will be double-headers so kids get ample opportunity to play.

The format of the team is five positions. Boys and Girls Singles, Boys and Girls Doubles and Mixed Doubles. The season runs from July 1 to Aug. 8.

New England Championships and even the National Championships.

More information can be found at www.GraniteStateKids.com. The cost is $175 per player and see TENNIS next page

Birdies highlight Waukewan ladies round The timing was key as the nine-hole Waukewan Ladies League played their June 25 round. As the last foursome entered the Bar-N for delicious snacks and beverages, the skies opened up with expected rain.

President Linda Ridlon announced those golfers who distinguished themselves during the round beginning with the three ladies who scored "birdies". Val Langbehn scored hers on hole #14 by sinking a 40-foot putt to a pin tucked in the back right of an uphill green. On the par-4, 18th, Mary Cross hit her second shot from the left rough, over the

pond protecting the green to 3 feet from the pin. She then sank the putt for her three. And Laurie Fox received her round of applause as her "birdie" was announced. Laurie was thrilled as this was her first "birdie" recorded in League play and she accomplished this feat on hole #17.

Dottie Simpson was the lucky winner of a new twist of one of the contest holes.

On hole #11, all the ladies who reached the green on either their first or second shot placed their names in a bag. One name was then drawn from this

Week-long coed soccer camp taking place at Brewster Academy A co-ed soccer day camp for youngsters ages 10 to 16 will be held at Brewster Academy in Wolfeboro from June 15 to 19. The camp will run from 9 a.m. to noon each day.

Brewster Varsity Boy’s soccer coach Karl Edmonds will coach the five-day camp which will include drills in various soccer fundamentals as well as game play.

Prior to coming to Brewster Academy Edmonds worked for Seacoast United Soccer Club and the New England Revolution. At Seacoast United (19962009) he was responsible for directing the soccer development of all youth players.

“I particularly enjoyed assisting in the placement of players at universities and colleges drawing upon

GOLF from preceding page group as the winner of that prize. Dottie not only played well but also was fortunate to boot.

Two new members of the League demonstrated their long and accurate drives on #17 to win the "longest drive" contest. Hole #17 has a narrow fairway banking right to left and keeping it in the short grass can be a challenge. Deb Deacetis in the 19 and below handicap division and Jane Fraska in the 20 and above division succeeded in this task and were declared winners. Jane also had the only "chip in" of the day. She putted just off the green on #17 to a middle pin placement and holed her 15-foot putt for the honor.

Vice President and scorekeeper Kathy Sweeney and Scorekeeper Laurie Fox handed Ridlon the names of those golfers scoring 50 and under. At 50 were Mary Cross, Denise Doyle and Margaret Drummey, at 49 were Barb Barbuto, Val Langbehn and Kathy Sweeney, and scoring a 47 was Laurie Fox. The winning team of Carolyn Koczera, Rose Hansford, Sharon Corcoran and Nancy Vercauteran was announced with a net score of 72. This week's game required three scores to be added together on each of the even holes. Not an easy task on the "back" nine with multiple hazards and wet conditions. The team enjoyed applause from the league plus their well-deserved winnings. Betsy Cox decided it's nice to be good, but sometime better to be lucky as she was the winner of the 50/50 raffle.

A car (left) driven by Cherie Shaw, 27, of Gilford and an SUV driven by Aaron Downing, 28, of Belmont collided head-on on a stretch of Rte. 106 in Belmont early Thursday morning. (Laconia Daily Sun photo/Roger Amsden)

WRECK from page one was unable to respond.

Route 106 from Plummer Hill Road on the Laconia side to Leavitt Road on the Belmont side was closed from 7:12 a.m. until just before 6 p.m. and traffic was rerouted.

Although Belmont Police and the Belknap Regional Accident Investigation Team continue to investigate the crash, preliminarily police said Downing, who was headed north crossed into the south-bound lane and hit Shaw’s vehicle.

There were no skid marks on either side of the crash. The vehicles ended up in the southbound lane across from Spears Brothers Building Wrecking.

Downing was driving a dark medium-sized SUV

and Shaw was driving a silver Chevrolet sedan.

The front end of Shaw’s car was nearly demolished.

Belmont Fire Lt. Mike Newhall said she was trapped when he arrived and firefighters used hydraulic extrication equipment to free her from the car.

Newhall said rescue workers displaced the car doors and removed the roof.

Sgt. Adam Hawkins said a N.H. State Trooper Edward Marceau III was on his way to Concord and was two cars behind Shaw. He reported the crash and stopped traffic but did not witness it.

Hawkins said Downing was traveling with his dog.

He said the dog was unharmed and was taken from the site of the crash by a woman who knows Downing.

OBAMA from page 2 not ready to decriminalize homosexuality.” Sall said countries make decisions on complex issues in their own time, noting that Senegal has outlawed capital punishment while other countries have not — a pointed jab at the U.S., where the death penalty is legal in many states.

Obama’s trip, which also includes stops in South Africa and Tanzania, marks the most extensive visit to Africa by the first black U.S. president since he took office. Many Africans have expressed disappointment over Obama’s lack of direct engagement with affairs on their continent — particularly given that his father was Kenyan and he has many relatives living in Africa — yet he was still enthusiastically welcomed.

Thousands of people gathered on the roadways near the presidential palace as Obama’s motorcade sped through the coastal city, many in the crowds wearing white to symbolize peace. Some waved homemade signs welcoming Obama, while those gathered near the palace entrance sang and played drums, the rhythmic beats audible from inside the gates.

TRASH from page one Ann Saltmarsh of the Department of Public Works said that ordinances requiring trash to be placed in containers and limiting the number of containers have been on the books for sometime and with the introduction of mandatory recycling will be strictly enforced for the first time.

The rules will be enforced in two stages. During the first week, from July 1 to July 6, those who fail to recycle, leave loose trash at the curb or exceed the maximum number of containers will be issued a ticket explaining the violation and the trash will be collected. But, from the following week, beginning on Monday, July 8 onward, violators will be not only be ticketed but their trash will not be collected.

Property owners will be responsible for disposing of excessive or loose trash appropriately. Neither Bestway Disposal Services, the contractor, nor the Department of Public Works will be responsible for removing it. Anyone found illegally disposing of trash on public streets, in private dumpsters or in or near remote recycling containers shall be subject to a fine of $250.

Starting Monday recyclables must be separated from trash. There is no limit to the amount of recyclables that will be collected at the curb.

Recyclable materials need not be sorted, but can be mingled in one container. Glass bottles and jars of all sizes, shapes and colors can be recycled along with steel and aluminum cans. Plastics carrying a recycling symbol and number 1 through 7 can be recycled, but plastic bags and styrofoam containers cannot. All cardboard and paper can be recycled.

The Department of Public Works offers 18-gallon recycling bins free of charge and 64-gallon wheeled toters at discounted prices of $25 for the first and $45 for the second.

Alternatively, recyclables may be taken to the Transfer Station on Parade Road or to one of the four remote

Laconia residents who wish to continue taking their recycling material to one of the collection sites may still have their trash picked up curbside as of Monday if they label their trash container with one of these bright orange stickers. The stickers are available from the Department of Public Works headquarters on Bisson Ave. (Laconia Daily Sun photo/Ed Engler)

from preceding page under scorching sun for hours to catch a glimpse of the president. They sang a song about his return to his ancestral homeland and broke into jubilant cheers as Obama and first lady Michelle Obama walked over to shake hands.

Looming over the festive atmosphere were concerns over former South African leader Nelson Mandela. Obama is due to arrive in South Africa on Friday, though Mandela’s precarious condition adds some uncertainty to the agenda.

Obama spoke reverently about the impact that Mandela’s struggle against apartheid had on his

own activism, as well as about the 94-year-old’s influence in Africa and around the world.

“If and when he passes from this place, one thing I think we’ll all know is that his legacy is one that will linger on throughout the ages,” said Obama, who has sometimes been linked to Mandela given their shared status as their nations’ first black presidents.

Mandela’s democratic influence in Africa is at the core of Obama’s trip. The three countries he will visit were selected as a signal of U.S. support for African nations that have embraced democracy in a region where the legacy of corruption and authoritarianism have been difficult to overcome.

locations in the city behind the City Garage on Messer Street, at the Lakeport Fire Station, at the Weirs Community Center and on Lindsay Court near the Memorial Park House. Those choosing to recycle at one of the remote locations should obtain a sticker, reading in black lettering against an orange background “Remote Recycler,” without charge from the Department of Public Works to affix to their trash container, which will ensure that their trash is collected.

Residents are reminded not to place their trash and recyclables at the curb prior to 7 p.m. the day before they are collected and to store the empty containers by 7 p.m. the next day.

Red Sox score all 7 runs in 2nd inning to beat Jays BOSTON (AP) — Jon Lester pitched into the eighth inning before leaving with an apparent injury, and Dustin Pedroia homered in a seven-run second to help the Boston Red Sox beat the Toronto Blue Jays 7-4 in the opener of a four-game series Thursday night.

Toronto, which reeled off 11 straight wins this month, had won 12 of its past 14 games and 15 of 19 to close within 6½ games of the AL East-leading Red Sox. Then the Blue Jays ran into Lester.

The left-hander retired 10 straight to begin the game and didn’t allow a hit until the fifth. He came out after giving up consecutive singles to start the eighth and running the count to 3-0 on Emilio Bonifacio.

Red Sox manager John Farrell came darting out of the dugout as the infielders crowded around Lester.

Moments later, Lester walked off the field and Junichi Tazawa came on in relief.

The Blue Jays capitalized, cutting the deficit to 7-4 on a sacrifice fly by Jose Reyes and a groundout

by Jose Bautista.

Koji Uehara pitched a perfect ninth for his third save.

Lester (8-4) was charged with four runs on five hits with five strikeouts and three walks in winning for just the second time in his last eight starts.

After starting the season 6-0 with a 2.72 ERA through his first nine starts, Lester struggled over his past seven, going 1-4 with a 7.30 ERA. He returned to form just in time to face baseball’s best team in June — and Boston’s bats provided him all the support he needed.

The Red Sox jumped all over Chien-Ming Wang, tagging the right-hander for seven runs while batting around in the second.

Wang (1-1), making his fourth start for Toronto this season, lasted just 1 2-3 innings, allowing all seven runs on six hits with two walks and no strikeouts.

Meanwhile, Lester needed only 30 pitches to get through three innings and didn’t allow a baserunner until Bautista walked with one out in the fourth.

Melky Cabrera singled for Toronto’s first hit with one out in the fifth and moved to second on a base hit by Rajai Davis. Maicer Izturis drove them both home with a double to left-center.

Muskrats end tough road trip with 9-2 loss in Holyoke HOLYOKE, Mass.

— The Muskrats last night dropped their third road game this week, beaten here by the Blue Sox, 9-2.

Laconia returns to Robbie Mills Field tonight to host Mystic at 6:30 p.m. After traveling to New Britain for a Saturday game they will play again at home on Sunday against Ocean State (South Kingstown, RI).

The loss to the second place team (8-7) in the NECLBL’s Western Division left Laconia (8-6) in a tie with Mystic for second place in the East, but now three games behind first place Newport. The Gulls beat Mystic 10-0 on Thursday night.

The Muskrats pounded out 11 hits against Holyoke but stranded 14 runs on base. Center fielder Joe Torres (Iona), right fielder Ryan McBroom (West Virginia),

Free admission to July 5 Muskrats game, thanks to Belknap Landscape Co. LACONIA — Belknap Landscape Co, Inc. (BLC) has chosen Friday, July 5 for its 4th Annual Area Appreciation Night at the Robbie Mills Memorial Stadium.

This Independence Week event is a show of appreciation for the community’s patronage over BLC’s 25 years of landcare service. The company’s silver anniversary brings a new association with LandOpt. BLC remains independently owned and operated, now with access to a nationwide network of successful landscape service providers who share knowledge. The LandOpt Network provides continuous education, enabling BLC to provide improved client service levels.

All attendees will not only receive free parking and admission to the game through Belknap Landscape’s website, Facebook page or coupons in area papers but, will enjoy host fun activities for the whole family.

The Laconia Muskrats will be up against the New Bedford Bay Sox and game time is 6:30 p.m.

Those who know BLC Owner Hayden

McLaughlin will see if he can still hit the mark with the ceremonial first pitch. BLC’s own stonemason Geoffrey Nixon will sing the National Anthem and later lead the crowd in “Take Me Out To The Ballgame”. The Belknap Landscape equipment fleet will be on display beyond the fence, becoming popular targets for Muskrat batters.

BLC marketing manager Dale Squires said “Come to the July 5 Muskrats game for terrific baseball and bonus chances to win some terrific landscape related prizes, from beach buckets to BLC t-shirts to hemlock trees.’’

Squires said that attendees look for the “The Belknap Dugout”, a pop-up tent, for entry forms and raffle tickets for such prizes, including sports memorabilia from Green Monster Sports in Tanger Outlets in Tilton.

Attendees can enjoy discounted “Belknap Burritos” from Laconia’s Burrito Me and enjoy watching competitive collegiate level baseball as the Muskrats play the New Bedford Bay Sox.

Loon Preservation Committee urges caution as chicks are beginning to hatch MOULTONBOROUGH — The Loon Preservation Committee (LPC) reports that loon chicks are hatching on lakes around the state just in time for the July 4th holiday, making them more vulnerable to disturbance as human activity increases on the lakes.

LPC biologits say people who see an adult loon with chicks should make sure to stay at least 150 feet from them so the parents can concentrate on feeding and caring for their chicks. If the adult shows any signs of distress such as craning its neck low over the water, thrashing about in the water, or vocalizing, leave the area as soon as possible.

Newly hatched chicks are small, dark and cannot dive so use caution if traveling by boat. Boat collisions

are the greatest humanrelated cause of chick mortality and the third highest cause of adult loon mortality after lead fishing tackle and monofilament line/other fishing tackle.

Last year Loon Preservation Committee biologists recorded 170 loon chicks hatched but 21% of those chicks did not survive. Studies indicate that a minimum breeding suc- Adult loon and two chicks. (Brian Reilly photo) cess rate of 0.48 surviving chicks per loon pair is needed to Hampshire’s loons were able to achieve maintain the loon population over the the minimum reproductive success long term. In 2012, with record levels required to sustain their population. of management and outreach, New LPC biologists are hoping for another

productive breeding season this year for the state-threatened loon population.

The annual Loon Census will take place on Saturday, July 20 from 8-9 a.m. This mid-season count gives LPC a “snapshot” on loon productivity throughout the state and also helps discover new territories. Those who would like to participate can contact LPC at 603-476-5666 or send an email to volunteers@loon.org.

Loons are a threatened species in New Hampshire and are protected by state and federal laws from hunting or harassment, including following adults with chicks. Those who observe harassment of loons, can contact the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department (603-271-3361) or Marine Patrol (603-293-2037) for assistance.

confident and are intrigued.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Be careful pursuing what’s “free.” All the time you put into these pursuits may be costlier than money. You’ll give new consideration to the way you value things.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). There’s a rebellious part of your nature that does not wish to conform to the norms of mainstream social groups. You’re still trying to find where you fit in. The Internet will be most helpful in this matter.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’re due for some fun. Fun doesn’t have to be costly -or does it? A roller coaster has different kinds of risks than a night out on the town, but in both cases, the unknown factors are what make for an exciting time.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 28). You’ll discover new aptitudes this year. Next month brings a physical peak. Compete; play; and train. August brings a fresh ambition. Relationships that help you move toward it will be especially appealing. September blends the interest of family members. October will be the most romantic month. Aquarius and Taurus adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 46, 18, 20 and 1.

by Chad Carpenter

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You know you’re in a good place when you can listen to the good news of your “frienemy” without becoming the least bit jealous. Well, maybe the least bit. But not overly so!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Love has been around in so many incarnations that it would be wrong to call it “your love” or “his love” or “her love.” Don’t worry about where it came from or who will get it next; just keep recycling.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ve a ways to go, but don’t wait until you’ve reached your goal to be happy. People who are successful may or may not be happy, but people who are happy are always successful.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’re likely to set a conversational precedent today, so be careful. Remember that if someone is gossiping to you, he or she will gossip about you, as well. Think about this before you talk to a friend about another friend.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Habits are especially hard to break when you are under a lot of stress. Being under a lot of stress is a habit in and of itself. What can you do to reduce your burden? A Taurus can help.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’re not feeling regretful, but you do wonder what might have happened had you made a different choice. Such thinking is not a waste of time. The alternate realities you dream up will inform your next move.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Everywhere you look, there are signs telling you what to do, how to be and what to think. It’s a bit overbearing. You’ll respond by giving minimal instruction to yourself or anyone else. You prize freedom.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The project that is already in motion needs to stay in motion. Don’t let things get too quiet. Add fuel to the fire, and do whatever else is necessary to keep up the momentum.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You used to try to pump yourself with statements of your greatness. Now you go the opposite direction, disqualifying yourself from social competition. As a result, people see you as

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Friday, June 28, 2013— Page 23

––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Friday, June 28, the 179th day of 2013. There are 186 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlights in History: On June 28, 1863, during the Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln appointed Maj. Gen. George G. Meade the new commander of the Army of the Potomac, following the resignation of Maj. Gen. Joseph Hooker.

On this date: In 1778, the Revolutionary War Battle of Monmouth took place in New Jersey; it was from this battle that the legend of “Molly Pitcher” arose.

In 1836, the fourth president of the United States, James Madison, died in Montpelier, Va. In 1838, Britain’s Queen Victoria was crowned in Westminster Abbey.

In 1914, Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria and his wife, Sophie, were assassinated in Sarajevo (sah-ruh-YAY’-voh) by Serb nationalist Gavrilo Princip — the event which sparked World War I. In 1919, the Treaty of Versailles (vehr-SY’) was signed in France, ending the First World War. In Independence, Mo., future president Harry S. Truman married Elizabeth Virginia Wallace.

In 1922, the Irish Civil War began between rival nationalists over the Anglo-Irish Treaty establishing the Irish Free State. (The conflict lasted nearly a year, resulting in defeat for anti-treaty forces.)

In 1939, Pan American Airways began regular trans-Atlantic air service with a flight that departed New York for Marseilles, France.

In 1944, the Republican national convention in Chicago nominated New York Gov. Thomas E. Dewey for president and Ohio Gov. John W. Bricker for vice president.

In 1950, North Korean forces captured Seoul (sohl), the capital of South Korea.

In 1962, a jury in New York awarded $3.5 million to former radio-TV personality John Henry Faulk in his libel suit against the group AWARE Inc. and two individuals who’d accused him of Communist sympathies and gotten him blacklisted. (The judgment was reduced to $550,000 by an appeals court.)

In 1978, the Supreme Court ordered the University of California-Davis Medical School to admit Allan Bakke (BAHK’-ee), a white man who argued he’d been a victim of reverse racial discrimination.

In 2000, seven months after he was cast adrift in the Florida Straits, Elian Gonzalez was returned to his native Cuba.

Ten years ago: After days of intense searching by ground and air, U.S. forces found the bodies of two soldiers missing north of Baghdad, as the toll of American dead since the start of war topped the grim milestone of 200.

Five years ago: Jered Weaver and Jose Arredondo of the Angels combined to keep the Los Angeles Dodgers hitless, but the Dodgers won 1-0. (The Dodgers became the fifth team in modern major league history to win without getting a hit, but since they didn’t have to bat in the ninth, the game did not qualify as a no-hitter.)

One year ago: At Wimbledon, 2-time champion Rafael Nadal was overpowered in the second round by Lukas Rosol, a Czech ranked No. 100, 6-7 (9), 6-4, 6-4, 2-6, 6-4.

NH Music Festival’s orchestral concerts to celebrate Britten and Wagner

PLYMOUTH — The New Hampshire Music Festival’s Orchestral Concerts begin on Thursday, July 11, giving audiences the chance to experience selections from both well-loved repertoire and engaging recent works.

This season, the first under Music Director Donato Cabrera, the Orchestral Series will draw upon programs from the early days of the Festival and celebrate the anniversaries of Britten and Wagner.

The Festival Orchestra will also perform works by Mozart, Beethoven, Handel and Vivaldi, alongside pieces by Stravinsky, de Falla, and an East Coast premiere by American composer Mark Volkert.

The Festival also welcomes back its Conductor Laureate Paul Polivnick and Director of Choirs Joel

Johnson, who, along with several Orchestra members, are celebrating their 50th summer season with the Festival.

“I am really looking forward to continuing the Festival’s tradition of great classical music in New Hampshire,” said Cabrera. “I truly believe the Festival can be a place to enjoy music you know and a place to challenge yourself, perhaps hearing something you like that you’ve never heard before.”

Concerts are held in the Hanaway Theatre at the Silver Center for the Arts at Plymouth State University in Plymouth, NH. The Thursday, July 11 concert will include: Mendelssohn - Hebrides Overture; Mozart - Violin Concerto No. 4, Malcolm Stewart, violin; Stravinsky - Dumbarton Oaks and Haydn

- Symphony No. 85. The Thursday, July 18 concert will include: Verdi - String Quartet (arranged for String Orchestra by Drew); Britten - Variations on a Theme of Frank Bridge and Tchaikovsky - Serenade for Strings.

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Friday, June 28, 2013— Page 25

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Dear Annie: I’ve been trying to write a novel for a year.

The problem is, I have no support from my family. My wife and friends always groan when I ask them to read what I’ve written. I’m trying to be considerate of their level of interest and don’t want them to be annoyed with me, but I need some feedback on my writing.

That being said, would you know where I could send my pages for review? I’d like to know if my story is interesting the way I’m writing it, or if I need to develop it better. -Amateur Author in El Paso, Texas Dear Author: There are various ways to get your written material in front of an audience. You can ask writing teachers to look at it. You can search for a writers workshop or try meetup.com for a writing group that critiques members’ work. You can self-publish (you are responsible for all costs), put it in a blog or on an Internet site for free (you will get myriad comments, many worthless, and you’d better have a thick skin), enter a writing contest, or submit a short version to a magazine. You also can go to the nearest library and find a listing of literary agents. An agent will help get your book into the hands of a reputable publisher or reviewer. Getting published is not easy, but if you have talent and skill, it is possible.

Dear Annie: Our daughter was asked to be the maid of honor at her friend’s wedding. She was very excited about it. We planned a small shower for her closest friends and family. Now the bride and her mother have given us a list of 78 women to invite. I checked the etiquette book and found no encouragement for such a large event. The 78 women are also invited to the wedding reception.

We simply cannot afford such a large shower, and the bride’s parents know it. I do not understand how they could expect us to handle such a large event. Our daughter doesn’t

want to lose the bride’s friendship. Should she bow out of the wedding? -- Anxious Parent Dear Anxious: No bride should demand such extravagant favors. Your daughter should tell her that she cannot manage such a large affair and ask that the guest list be trimmed to 30 women or however many she can afford to host. Your daughter could also ask the other bridesmaids to host this shower with her, providing more resources and perhaps accommodating a larger guest list.

If the other bridesmaids are not interested or if the bride insists on 78 women, your daughter should offer to bow out of the wedding party. We hope the bride will then understand how unreasonable she is being and back off.

Dear Annie: Your answer to “Parents at Wits’ End,” whose bipolar son would not take his meds, exemplifies the dilemma posed by mental illness in this country, namely that without the patient’s cooperation matters may quickly grow hopeless.

My wife had severe bipolar disorder. It was only luck that kept her aggressive driving from killing all of us and enabled her to keep her job. A friend urged me to leave with my children, but I knew my kids would be devastated, and I worried that my wife would kill herself.

My wife saw a doctor who prescribed an antidepressant, but she did not want a mood stabilizer. The antidepressant by itself sent her spiraling, as she knew it would. The doctor’s nurse later told me, “We knew something was wrong, but she wouldn’t talk about it when she came in.” Less than a year later, my wife committed suicide, breaking all of our hearts.

If a bipolar person cannot cooperate, the family can do nothing but pray. -- Wiser in Tennessee

LRGHealthcare hires new lab director LACONIA — Leo Goddu, Vice President-Ancillary Services of LRGHealthcare, has named Christopher Records as Administrative Director of Laboratories.

Christopher Records has over 30 years of experience working in hospital labs and has been overseeing laboratories in both large and small organizations for the past twenty-one years.

“I am delighted to be here at LRGHealthcare and am thrilled to be a part of such a wonderful organization;” Christopher stated, “Every person I’ve met since starting on April 1 has been a pleasure to work with.”

The Lakes Region General Hospital Laboratory was recently successful in its biennial CLIA survey. The lab scored above the 95 percentile when compared to other labs across New Hampshire and the country.

CLIA conducts laboratory regulatory oversight under the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS). CMS’s objective is not only to determine the laboratory’s regulatory compliance but also to assist regulated laboratories in improving patient care by emphasizing those aspects of the regulatory provisions that have a direct impact on the laboratory’s overall test performance.

Tilton Police Explorers recently won a prestigious 3M community service grant in the amount of $500.

New Hampton woman awarded Kathy Anderson Scholarship PLYMOUTH — Kimberly Fielding of New Hampton was selected as the 2013 recipient of the 3rd annual Kathy Anderson Scholarship.

Named for the late Kathy Anderson, wife of New Hampshire Electric Co-op President/CEO Fred Anderson, the scholarship was created to help a deserving New Hampshire woman who is seeking to better her life through education.

Fielding, a Co-op member residing in New Hampton, with her husband and young son, will receive $2,500 to help continue her studies at NHTI in Concord where she is finishing up her final year of college and will receive a degree in Radiologic Technology. Kimberly’s career goal is to become an MRI technologist upon graduation. “She is a very motivated, dedicated and hard working student, which was not only apparent from her scholarship essay but was very

clear to recognize upon meeting her in person,” said Audrey Goudie, Executive Director of the NHEC Foundation also responsible for the Kathy Anderson scholarship oversight.

“Kimberly represents the best of Kathy’s legacy,” said Fred Anderson.

“Like Kathy, she’s a lifelong learner who is committed to her family, her career and her education. It’s clear to see why she was the selected by our awards committee. We wish her all the best as she works towards her degree.”

The Kathy Anderson scholarship was established in 2011 and awards one $2,500 scholarship annually to a non-traditional female learner over the age of 25 who is a US citizen, resident of NH and is a NH Electric Co-op member. The candidate must be enrolled at least part-time in an undergraduate program.
