Laconia woman accidentally shot by house guest THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA, N.H.
LACONIA — A local woman was accidentally shot in the abdomen Sunday night at 9:54 p.m. by an unidentified Franklin man who was visiting her home. Capt. Bill Clary said Tiela L. Otto, 23, of 14-A Summer St. is
expected to survive her injuries. “From what I understand, she is incredibly fortunate,” said Clary who said reports indicate the bullet went through her abdomen but didn’t hit any vital organs. He said the single round was from .40-caliber handgun and police have recovered both
the round and the gun. He said the gun was legitimately owned. Neighbors from across the street said yesterday morning that they heard a single gunshot just before 10 p.m. One man said he initially thought it was fireworks but within minutes
saw police come to the house. A woman who also lives across the street said she also heard it and knew it was a gunshot. “It was loud,” she said. Clary said someone in the home called 9-1-1 but Otto was taken by private vehicle to see SHOT page 8

MILWAUKEE (AP) — As more victims of clergy sex abuse came forward, then-Milwaukee Archbishop Timothy Dolan oversaw a plan to pay some abusers to leave the priesthood after writing to Vatican officials with increasing frustration and concern, warning them about the potential for scandal if they did not defrock problem priests, according to documents released Monday. Dolan’s correspondence with Vatican officials and priests accused of sexual abuse was included in about 6,000 pages of documents the Archdiocese of Milwaukee released Monday as part of a deal reached in federal bankruptcy court with clergy sex abuse victims suing it for fraud. Victims say the archdiocese transferred problem priests to new churches without warning parishioners and covered up priests’ crimes for decades. The documents have drawn attention in part because of the involvement of Dolan, who is now a cardinal and see PRIESTS page 15

town of Yarnell, state forestry spokesman Art Morrison told The Associated Press. The fire also destroyed an estimated 200 homes, Morrison said. Dry grass near the communities of Yarnell and Glen Isla fed the fast-moving blaze, which was whipped up by wind and raced through the homes, he said. The fire still burned late Sunday, with flames lighting up the night sky in the forest above Yarnell, a town of about 700 residents about 85 miles northwest of
Phoenix. Most people had evacuated from the town, and no injuries or other deaths were reported. The fire started after a lightning strike on Friday and spread to at least 2,000 acres on Sunday amid triple-digit temperatures, low humidity and windy conditions. Prescott Fire Chief Dan Fraijo said that the 19 dead firefighters were a part of the city’s fire department. “We grieve for the family. We grieve for see FIREFIGHTERS page 9
CAIRO (AP) — Egypt’s military gave a “last-chance” ultimatum Monday to President Mohammed Morsi, giving him 48 hours to meet the demands of millions of protesters in the streets seeking his ouster, or the generals will intervene and impose their own plan for the country. Army helicopters swooped over Tahrir Square trailing Egyptian flags, to the cheers of the crowd opposed to the Islamist leader. The military’s statement, read on state
TV, put enormous pressure on Morsi to step down. Giant crowds demanding his departure in cities around the country for a second straight day erupted into delirious parties of celebration, with men and women dancing, and some crying as patriotic songs blasted from speakers on cars. But any army move against Morsi after the two-day deadline risks a backlash from Morsi’s Islamist backers, including his powerful Muslim Brotherhood and
hard-liners, some of whom belong to former armed militant groups. After the army statement, multiple officials of Morsi’s Muslim Brotherhood insisted that the military and street protests cannot overturn the legitimacy of the president’s election. An alliance of the Brotherhood and other Islamists read as statement at a televised press conference calling on all people “to rally in defense of see EGYPT page 8

would have to stop leaking U.S. secrets if he wanted asylum in Russia — and he added that Snowden seemed unwilling to stop publishing leaks of classified material. At the same time, Putin said that he had no plans to turn over Snowden to the see SPYING page 10

Get government out of the marriage business The Supreme Court’s boost for same-sex marriage was just and overdue. But the arguments, pro and con, begged a bigger question: Should government be involved in marriage at all? The answer would seem “no.” Marriage should be the business of clergy and ship captains. The government should bestow its blessings only on civil unions, however defined. Several comments of the past week bolster this view. “Now I can marry the person I love,” was the victory refrain of gays suddenly able to wed in California. Let us toast the impending nuptials. But government doesn’t grant marriage status to certify love. It does so to designate who qualifies for the rights and benefits attached to being in a government-sanctioned marriage. Lots of married people don’t love their partners. Lots of unmarried people do. But love or no, married people do receive thousands of government bennies. The Supreme Court did good, ditching the part of the Defense of Marriage Act denying gays legally married in a dozen states the federal benefits available to married heterosexuals. “By extending health insurance and other important benefits to federal employees and their families, regardless of whether they are in same-sex or opposite sex marriages,” Attorney General Eric Holder announced, “the Obama administration is making real the promise of this important decision.” Very nice, but why do married couples get this help with longterm care insurance, retirement and countless other things, and sisters caring for each other do not? It doesn’t compute now and never did. Then there are the legal rights. One of last week’s cases was brought on behalf of Edith Windsor, hit with a $363,000 tax on the estate of her gay partner. Although they’d been together for 42 years and had married in Toronto, the federal government did not recognize their marriage as legal. Had they been heterosexual and married, the property would have passed to the surviving partner free of estate tax. The court ruled that the federal government had to recognize mar-
riages deemed legal where they were performed. That’s fair, but tell us why a brother and sister similarly caring for one another should have to pay estate taxes if one dies. Or consider television’s “Golden Girls” — rest in peace, Bea Arthur — sharing that lovely house in Miami. When you think about it, only one thing distinguishes marriage from these other relationships: sex, or the presumption of sex. Social conservatives opposed to gay marriage rest most of their case on the presumption of children. Their claim that a strong marriage provides the best structure for raising children seems solid. It does not quite follow, though, that the parents must be of different genders. Marriage doesn’t necessarily lead to procreation, and being gay does not necessarily mean being childless. Justice Anthony Kennedy, having noted that a law banning same-sex marriage did “legal injury” to 40,000 children in California living with gay parents, argued that DOMA “places same-sex couples in an unstable position of being in a second-tier marriage.” The point that centuries of tradition dictate that marriage be a mystical bonding between man and woman ignores the 21st century. Former model Christie Brinkley enjoyed all the rights and benefits of marriage with all four of her husbands. One must ask either “why?” or “why not?” If nurturing children is a goal of government, government should nurture children. There are child tax credits, day care, aid for education and many other ways to further that mission. Tying financial benefits to this fuzzy institution called marriage makes no sense. Let other authorities marry people for religious, romantic, spiritual or whatever reasons. Government should get out of this business.

She has written for such diverse publications as The New York Times, Harper’s Bazaar and Institutional Investor.)
There’s a perfectly good surplus jail on the State School property To The Daily Sun, Why ask the taxpayers for money to build another or onto the current jail when there is a perfectly good jail on the State School property? It needs renovation you say? Well you have all the cheap labor you need to renovate the place in the current jail and it would give them (the prisoners) an
incentive to getting early release by volunteering their time cleaning out the old prison. If this does not make sense to the powers that be, who want to spend, spend, spend, then get them out of their cushy offices and get some frugal Yankees to replace them. Bev Buker Gilford
LETTERS Fundamentalists notorious for overreaching; they don’t like change To The Daily Sun, I’ve always been intrigued by the conservative mind set and I’ve always associated it with the older generation.( I do tend to paint with broad strokes). The whole idea of “young Republicans” on college campuses dressed in three piece suits always seemed to me a bit oxymoronic. . . sort of like “compassionate Republican” or “gospel truth”. It’s perfectly understandable that the “C” word would be attached to let us say more mature people— especially the ones that you can fool all the time. After all, they have seen the nation decline in so many ways in their lifetime (moral, economic, prestige etc). They want to hang on to the past while it keeps slipping away. They view liberalism as the agent of change but that change seems to occur for the worse. One has to give them credit. They get angry rather than apathetic because anger is a better motivator. I only wish more liberals would get angry but not in the nasty hateful manner of the neo-cons. The more extreme forms of conservatism sometimes manifests itself in the form of reactionary fundamentalism, which can be seen being played out not only in the U.S. but around the world. Conservative factions of all religions are gaining popularity. Jews, Muslims, Christians, and even Hindus are moving toward the crazy end of the belief scale. How long it can sustain itself in a modern society is debatable but my guess is that we
are witnessing it’s last gasp. Think of a cornered animal how it inflates itself and bears its teeth! Even young evangelicals are rejecting the extreme views of many of the Religious Right. Fundamentalists are notorious for overreaching. They overreached in 1925 with the Skopes Monkey Trial; they overreached in 1933 with the abolishment of prohibition; they overreached in 1964 with the Civil Rights Act; and in 1965 with the Immigration and Nationality Act and of course the Supreme Court’s school prayer decision. They just don’t like change. I think they are still trying to get over the invention of the wheel. Psychologists have a term for this mind set. It’s called cognitive dissonance — a reaction between dearly held beliefs and undeniable evidence in opposition to those beliefs. It is a characteristic of a rigid mind and expresses itself in anger — and it is dangerous. However, to be perfectly fair, it’s not limited to conservatives. Those in progressive faith communities will have to take a stand against the fundamentalists lest the JudeoChristian heritage becomes identified as narrow, exclusive, homophobic and at times hateful. Albert Einstein, who definitely was not a conservative, sums it up this way: “Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I’m not sure about the universe” George Maloof Plymouth
Ayotte easily swayed just so she can be part of the Senate club To The Daily Sun, Well it didn’t take long for Senator Kelly Ayotte to forget the promises she made about amnesty when she ran for office only to join the Republican Establishment once she got to Washington. I do seem to remember her buddy John McCain campaigning for her. She has had a chance to align herself with true conservatives in the Senate but chooses to join the establishment politicians who are responsible for so many election losses for the Republicans. Does she wish to support these losers or do what’s right for her own children’s future and the future
of our great nation. An appropriate pledge for her to recite would be as follows: “I pledge allegiance to John McCain and the Lindsey Grahams of America. And to one party, under the progressives, with indifference and contempt for those who sent me here”. Shame on you Senator Ayotte. We now know where you really stand and how easily you can be swayed just to be part of the club. What’s next, a switch on gun control? Phil & Chris Wittmann Alton

New immigration bill is an unread & misunderstood boondoggle To The Daily Sun, Perhaps libertarianism isn’t the best political system devised since the dawn of mankind. Then again, Jonah Goldberg brings up a very important point to those on the left (and yes, the right) who think it either hasn’t worked or would never work. Seems it has never even been tried. Some of us may not agree with them on topics such as foreign policy and the war on drugs, as an example. But by enlarge, libertarianism comes the closest to the ideals of the Founding Fathers. Jonah’s recent column goes on to describe the inanity of the petulant progressives and their oxymoronic political belief system. For the past 100 years, they have asserted that statism, whether in the form of fascism, socialism or communism, is the wave of the future. Never mind that free market capitalism and our constitutional republic are a relatively new and still unfolding phenomenon. Never mind that statism in all it’s forms has killed over one hundred million people, has been tried for thousands of years and failed every time. As Jonah notes in his clarion call for our leaders to follow the likes of John Locke, Adam Smith and Edmund Burke, small government freedom lovers tend to prosper, mistakes and all, while power drunk statists bring enslavement and murder. If there were any of today’s Democrats that still drank from the trough of classical liberalism, they would naturally gravitate toward libertarianism which allows people maximum freedom and minimum government intrusion. Regrettably, most Republicans also avoid that same trough, having sipped from the same cup of establishment power politics. They too have found the elitist, utopian lifestyle an addiction too intoxicating to resist. Steve Deace in a recent Townhall. com column alluded to the allegories in J.R.R. Tolkien’s “Lord of the Rings”. Specifically, the ring of power itself which symbolizes how power and control invariably lead to corruption in even the most well intentioned and respectable individuals. Or as Steve puts it, “even good people end up becoming monsters”. He notes how libertarians have been warning us about “our partisan naivete about the nature of big government is coming home to roost”. He refers to the Lord of the Rings and the evil Sauron, inspired by Lucifer who seeks to possess the ring in order to subdue all of Middle Earth. Now comes Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton (likely gearing up for a 2016 run), dedicated disciples of Saul Alinsky’s, “Rules for Radicals”. Alinsky’s
1971 community organizing treatise was coincidentally inspired by Lucifer. The devil you say? Okay, just take a gander at the machinations of the Clinton machine and the way the Obama administration has ignored the rule of law, intimidated and attacked his opponents. Shiver me timbers and blow me down, disagree with me and soon the IRS, the Department of Justice, the NSA and the EPA will be coming to town. And in exciting coming attractions, Agenda 21 and the new world order dictators may also soon be coming round with sustainable actions sure to tie us down. Libertarians have been warning us of the evils of big, central planning, statists who inevitably become our fearful masters rather than our faithful servants. This new immigration bill is an unread and misunderstood illegal migration boondoggle that will not solve the problem, has been loaded with a generous portion of political pandering pork and gives Janet Napolitano far too much leverage and power. As the National Review reports, President Obama has decided to make “global warming “the new focus of his failing presidency. In his speech, he makes stuff up out of whole cloth about scientific consensus while ignoring the mountain of evidence discrediting the effect of man-made global warming on our environment. Why would he do that you say? Well yes, it is to create a distraction from the constellation of disasters created under his watch. However, National Review purports that our president is in effect, “directing the EPA to take over the American economy”. Just check out his new emission standards, power plant retrofitting rules and heavy truck regulations. More subsidies to politically connected energy firms, federal lands being set aside for their use and impositions on the construction of factories, commercial buildings and private homes. They predict that every economic activity involving energy and transportation will be affected by the president’s global warming program. In fact, they believe that this enormous growth of federal power will be even more significant than the health care takeover. Perhaps it is time to give libertarians a real shot in the political arena. Whadaya say Bernadette, L.J., Jon, Lynn, professor Cracraft and others who lean to the left? I mean seriously, how can you not have an open mind about such an auspicious political compromise, borne of some real diversity of thought and nourished with the true spirit of liberty. Russ Wiles Tilton
Ayotte easily swayed just so she can be part of the Senate club To The Daily Sun, I saw your recent photo regarding the bike/car accident on Union Avenue in the June 28 edition of The Laconia Daily Sun. This may be the second accident recorded. I’m sure there were more that was not recorded. How many more will there be before something gets done? I have proposed changing the old Lake Shore railroad bed that runs along Paugus Bay between the Laconia Water Works and the former
walking/bike trail. This will provide a safe alternative to walk/bike from the WOW Trail to the walk/bike trail currently located behind MacDonald. I have mentioned this to a number of select persons and committee members of the WOW Trail. I have yet to get an affirmative answer. I approached a number of businesses that borders the rail bed and they have expressed that it is a great idea. It makes good sense! Rick Persons

To The Daily Sun, On this Independence Day, I see our country and our way of life slipping away. Tell me that you feel all warm and fuzzy with what’s happening in this country and around the world. No? Well neither do I! So in celebration of Independence Day I have decided to change my political affiliation and ideology. I now consider myself a Racist; that is, a Constitutional Raciest and I intend to become adamant and vocal in supporting the Constitution. I will as always continue to respect of my fellow human beings, however I will yell tripe whenever some Godless Liberal Progressive Communist Obama-loving Democrat tries to serve me tripe. For example, let us take a look at the systematic attacks on the JudeoChristian religion. Perhaps it was a Freudian slip but Obama managed to insult the Catholic schools while speaking to an audience in Northern Ireland and let us not forget how he tries to push Israel under the bus every chance he gets. Democrats were instrumental in removing God from the classroom. We are told not to say Merry Christmas, say happy holiday and it’s a holiday tree not a Christmas tree and the most heinous crime of all is to display a manger as they have been deemed offensive. These may seem small and petty things to some but they indicate where the government is heading. Don’t teach American History because of the mere mention of God in the Declaration of Independence is offensive to the godless agnostics. Prevent our children from learning what their rights are under the Constitution, this way they won’t know what they lost when U.N. Agenda 21 is fully entrenched in our country and international and Sharia law usurp our laws. Look at the U.K. U.N. Agenda 21’s Common Core education is the order of the day. If we are to plunge into the abyss and become a one world government, then the removal of God and the Constitution is first and foremost. As a Constitutional Racist I love my God and my country, its values, its culture and the belief that God is woven into the fabric of what made this country great. I love the fact that we are endowed by the creator (God) with certain unalienable rights: Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. Presently I see as my liberties are being diminished and taken away by the Obama administration, the Supreme Court, the IRS, the NSA and the HSA.
Now is the time for all Americans to join in the renaissance of the basic beliefs that the founders of this country recognized, that is that our freedoms come from God and not the government. For the record, I have served my country in time of war and would do so again gladly, if the necessity arose, and I will lay down my life to protect those rights and beliefs I fought for and hold so dear. There are a number of benefits in being a Constitutional Racist. For one thing, I’m structured in my beliefs and I’m not hindered or intimidated by the politically correct police of the Godless, Progressive, Liberal, Communist, Obama-Loving Democrats. To call me a racist is futile as I have unequivocally established that fact. This administration, including our Muslim president has attacked the Judeo-Christians openly with impunity and little or no feedback. That stops now. My tolerance and respect for the Islamic ideology and their political agenda, which our president and his administration condone, is over. Note: I said the Islamic ideology and political agenda not the Muslim religion. I don’t believe the Prophet Muhammad could or would condone the Muslim Brotherhood or any other such radical group that condones the violence we see perpetrated around the world in the name of Allah. Recently, the Turkish prime minister demanded that Islamophobia be made a crime against humanity. However he failed to acknowledge his countries crime against humanity, which is second only to Nazi Germany. Turkey systematic genocide of the Armenian peoples mirrored the genocide of the Jews. In 2010 the Oklahoma voters went to the pols and voted by 70 percent to pass an amendment — “Save Our State Amendment” — the purpose of which was to ban U.S. Courts from looking at or using legal precepts of other nations, cultures and consideration of international or Sharia Law. Muneer Awad the executive director of the Council of American-Islamic Relations in Oklahoma sued to block the law from taking effect, arguing the amendment violated his first amendment rights; what hutzpah. However, sadly the Federal Court of Appeals found for Muneer Awad and blocked Oklahoma’s ban on Sharia law. Not familiar with Sharia Law? Sharia Law allows honor killings and tolerates the murder and rape of women and girls and the mutilation of the female see next page

LETTERS Green energy isn’t even a top 20 concern of the American people To The Daily Sun, It’s been a very busy week for news here in the last month of June. Lots of distractions, lots of hard news, lots of everything. Speaking of news, I heard the president give his speech on green energy the other day. He’s going to do, through executive orders, what he couldn’t get Congress to do. No wonder Congress didn’t want any part of his plan, because it will again raise the costs of energy for all Americans. To Obama’s credit he did warn us that he was going to make the cost of energy sky-rocket. The only promise he’s kept? Now I don’t know about rich folks but as for my wife and myself, we’re retired and on fixed income, so when the cost of electricity goes up we notice it. Obama has doubled the cost of gas and heating oil since he first came into power; now we can expect it to go up again, and by executive order, swell! Hail Caesar! Funny thing though, from what I read, green energy isn’t even in the top 20 concerns of the American people. Jobs and the economy top the list and though the green supporters
keep telling us how many new jobs and business’s will be created seems the promises keep falling far short of the reality. Now, I’d have nothing against green energy if it cost/worked at least as well and as conventional energy but it just doesn’t. If it did people would be going for it in much greater numbers then we now see, that’s just how it is. And speaking of the president’s speech I hear some saying it was timed to distract we simple folks from the cascade of scandals engulfing the administration. Oh did you hear, another Obama stooge took the fifth at the congressional hearings the other day. Its beginning to remind me of the old organized crime hearings years back. (“Aint nobody knows nutten. I don’t recall any tinge bout dat. Nah, I don’t memba nutten.”) Ah, the good old days when lying to Congress was actually a serious felony. Today it’s the national past time of crooked political hacks who’s backs are covered by the attorney general and the president himself. Hail Caesar! Steve Earle Hill

Thank you all for brightening the center of my native Laconia To The Daily Sun, It’s unusual for me to address my personal feelings in a public format. But, as a lifetime resident as well as an employee of a downtown business, I can’t help but express my sincere appreciation for the beauty that explodes outside my office window and envelopes me as I run my errands. Not since visiting Chicago in 2009 with its widespread display of plantings along Michigan Avenue and Millennium Park have I been so struck by such a beautiful landscape — and all without a 10.5 percent sales tax! With typical Yankee energy and determination mixed with modern
technology, a dedicated group of business owners embraced our “Made in America” chant. They secured contributions from like-minded citizens, near and far (Canada, Texas) and were able to replace our foreign-made flags and add a myriad of baskets and barrels that simply cannot be missed. Our little village rallied and I say “thank you” for brightening the city center. Our community has shown that we too are “Laconia Strong” and I am one proud native. Claire L. Hebert Community Relations Coordinator Melcher & Prescott Insurance

So, on this glorious Independence Day I leave you with the last stanza of America (My Country, Tis of Thee).... “Our fathers’ God, to thee, author of liberty, to thee we sing; long may our land be bright with freedom’s holy light; protect us by thy might, great God, our King.” To all those who fell in battle from the Revolutionary War to the present war in the Middle East I thank you for my freedom. Now let us pray that Freedom is as Gods love, never ending. George Dengel Hebron

Man with teardrop tattoo under his eye said to have participated in home invasion/robbery on Elm Street LACONIA — Police are actively seeking two masked men who allegedly entered an apartment at 378 Elm St. at 9:41 p.m. Sunday and assaulted at least three people who were in the home. The assailants, at least one of whom was brandishing what appeared to be a gun, trashed the apartment and stole cash and electronics. Capt. Bill Clary said there were at least three males in the apartment who called police immediately after the incident. He said the three didn’t need medical attention. Clary said detectives were among the police who responded and police are still compiling an actual list of what was taken. He said the building has at least two apartments but only one was entered. The three men apparently didn’t know their assailants, said Clary, but described both as white males He said the victims said one of them is about 6-feet tall with blond hair and a tattoo of a teardrop under his right eye. He may be named “James”. The other man was described as being about 5-8 with brown or hazel eyes. Both were dressed in black and wearing bandanas across their faces. Clary said police don’t believe this was an random attack but said it’s too early in the investigation to ascribe any motive to it. The names of the victims were not released and Clary said at least one of them lives in the apartment. EGYPT from page 2 legitimacy and reject any attempt to overturn it.” Pro-Morsi marches numbering in the several thousands began after nightfall in a string of cities around the country. In Cairo, thousands of Islamists massing outside a mosque near the Ittihadiya presidential palace reacted with shock and fury to the military announcement, some vowing to fight against what they called a coup against the “Islamist project.” “Any coup of any kind against legitimacy will only pass over our dead bodies,” one leading Brotherhood SHOT from page one nearby Lakes Region General Hospital, where she underwent surgery. As of 1 p.m. yesterday, Clary said Otto was still in the hospital. He said no one was in the apartment when police arrived as the two other people in the home, including the man who shot Otto, took her to the hospital. Clary said the preliminary investigation indicates the shooting was not intentional but there was some “some negligent act.” He said there doesn’t appear to have been any alcohol involved. Laconia on-line assessments lists the home as being owned by Tanam Associates, LLC of Gilford.
All’s quite now at 378 Elm St. but armed assailants entered the home just before 10 p.m. Sunday night and assaulted the three people in the home. The assailants stole cash and electronics. (Laconia Daily Sun photo/Gail Ober)
According to the Laconia on-line assessment data base, the homeowners live on nearby Washington Street. Anyone with any information is asked to call the Laconia Police Department at 524-5257, the Greater Laconia Crime Line at 527-1717 or go to www.laconiapd.org. — Gail Ober figure, Mohammed el-Beltagi, told the rally. A line of around 1,500 men with shields, helmets and sticks — assigned with protecting the rally against attackers — stamped their feet in military-like lines, singing, “Stomp our feet, raise a fire, Islam’s march is coming.” Army troops at checkpoints on roads leading to the pro-Morsi rally checked cars for weapons, after repeated reports some Islamists were arming themselves. The army’s stance also raises a unsettling prospect for many of Morsi’s opponents as well — the potential return of the military that ruled Egypt directly for nearly 17 months after the Feb. 11, 2011 fall of autocrat Hosni Mubarak. During that time, many of those now in the anti-Morsi campaign led protests against military rule, angered by its management of the transition and heavy hand, including killings of protesters. Even many who welcomed Monday’s announcement expressed worries over a possible outright military takeover. “Morsi will leave, but I’m concerned with the plan afterward. The military should be a tool to pressure, but we had a bitter experience with military ruling the country and we don’t want to repeat it,” said Roshdy Khairy, a 24-year-old doctor among the throngs in Tahrir Square Monday night.

Defense raises issue of competence for homicide at mental health group home By Gail OBer
LACONIA — The probable cause hearing for the man accused of strangling another man who lived in the same mental health support home has been continued while his defense counsel raises the issue of his competency to face charges Kasey Riley, 19, formerly of 24 McGrath St. is charged with one count of second-degree murder for recklessly and with extreme indifference causing the June 10 death of 27-year-old Zachary March. Formerly scheduled for this afternoon in the 4th Circuit Court, Laconia Division, this is the second time Riley’s probable cause hearing has been continued. His first hearing was scheduled for June 18 but was delayed when his former public defender, Jesse Friedman, said he needed more time to review the affidavits compiled by the office of the N.H. Attorney General. The affidavits, which delineate the reason police believe they had probable cause to arrest Riley and charge him with the March’s murder, were sealed by Judge Jim Carroll at the request of the state on June 11, the one time Riley has appeared in court.
The affidavits were also initially sealed from the defense but were released to them two days later with the caveat that only the defense team could look at them and their contents were not to be revealed. The Daily Sun learned Monday that Friedman is no longer representing Riley and his case has been taken over by an attorney from the Concord Public Defenders Office. In related news, Carroll also denied a motion filed by the Concord Monitor on June 11 to release the arrest affidavit. In his one page ruling, Carroll agreed that the First Amendment right of access to public documents is a burden of proof the state must overcome, but in this case there are judicially-accepted exceptions that allow courts to seal the affidavits until after a grand jury reviews the case. “Though no objection was filed from (Riley), the court believes that the maintenance of the seal of the subject documents preserves the rights of the defendant to a fair grand jury proceeding, “Carroll wrote. “The court sets the seal to terminate upon the date of any return of a true bill of indictment by the Belknap County Grand Jury.
State prosecutors argued for the documents to remain sealed because, despite Riley’s arrest, they are still investigating the case and the “release of this information would undoubtedly compromise the ongoing investigation and cause the public release of “facts that are truly know only to a few individuals...” The state also argued that some of those “few” could flee the jurisdiction or “negatively impact the investigation and grand jury process.” Grand jury proceeding are secret. The next Belknap County Grand Jury is scheduled to meet on July 11 but it isn’t known if Riley’s case will be brought before it. The state argued that “intense media scrutiny can thwart the grand jury’s ability to investigate criminal activity” and that “witnesses who are subject to media scrutiny may be reluctant to come forward or attempt to avoid grand jury process in order to stay out of the media spotlight.” To date, other than to state that March’s death was by strangulation, that Riley has been charged, and there were two other people in the home the morning of the murder, the state has released no other information.
FIREFIGHTERS from page 2 the department. We grieve for the city,” he said at a news conference Sunday evening. “We’re devastated. We just lost 19 of the finest people you’ll ever meet.” Hot shot crews are elite firefighters who often hike for miles into the wilderness with chain saws and backpacks filled with heavy gear to build lines of protection between people and fires. They remove brush, trees and anything that might burn in the direction of homes and cities. The crew killed in the blaze had worked other wildfires in recent weeks in New Mexico and Arizona, Fraijo said. “By the time they got there, it was moving very quickly,” he told the AP of Sunday’s fire. He added that the firefighters had to deploy the emergency shelters when “something drastic” occurred. “One of the last fail safe methods that a firefighter can do under those conditions is literally to dig as
much as they can down and cover themselves with a protective — kinda looks like a foil type — fire-resistant material — with the desire, the hope at least, is that the fire will burn over the top of them and they can survive it,” Fraijo said. “Under certain conditions there’s usually only sometimes a 50 percent chance that they survive,” he said. “It’s an extreme measure that’s taken under the absolute worst conditions.” The National Fire Protection Association had previously listed the deadliest wildland fire involving firefighters as the 1994 Storm King Fire near Glenwood Springs, Colo., which killed 14 firefighters who were overtaken by a sudden explosion of flames. U.S. wildfire disasters date back more than two centuries and include tragedies like the 1949 Mann Gulch fire near Helena, Mont., that killed 13, or the Rattlesnake blaze four years later that claimed 15 firefighters in Southern California.
President Barack Obama called the 19 firefighters heroes and said in a statement that the federal government was assisting state and local officials. “This is as dark a day as I can remember,” Gov. Jan Brewer said in a statement. “It may be days or longer before an investigation reveals how this tragedy occurred, but the essence we already know in our hearts: fighting fires is dangerous work.” Brewer said she would travel to the area on Monday. Chuck Overmyer and his wife, Ninabill, said they lost their, 1,800-square-foot home in the blaze. They were helping friends flee when the blaze switched directions and moved toward his property. They loaded up what belongings they could, including three dogs and a 1930 model hot rod on a trailer. As he looked out his rear view mirror he could see embers on the roof of his garage. “We knew it was gone,” he said.

Center Harbor selectmen appoint Leon Manville as interim fire chief By Michael Kitch
CENTER HARBOR — Following a non-public meeting last night, the Board of Selectmen announced the appointment of Leon Manville as interim, part-time fire chief. He succeeds John Schlemmer, who resigned suddenly last Thursday morning. Selectman Harry Viens said that Manville will serve while the selectmen conduct a formal search for a permanent part-time chief. The board, he said, had no specific timetable, but would review the job description, post the position, accept applications and interview qualified candidates. “It will be an open search,” Viens said, adding that he expected the board to make an appointment in a “few months.” Manville, a resident of Center Harbor, became a fire fighter in 1985 and served as fire chief in Center Harbor from 1994 to 1998. Viens said that that the board was fortunate to find a resident with prior experience
and appropriate certifications at short notice. Both Schlemmer and the selectmen have declined to comment on the circumstances surrounding his sudden and unexpected resignation. Last Thursday evening, hours after Schlemmer resigned and the board “reluctantly accepted” his decision, two of three selectmen — Harry Viens and Richard Drenkhahn — met with nearly a dozen firefighters and EMTs. Dave Hughes, who chairs the threeman Selectboard and serves as a captain in the Fire Department, has recused himself from the process of seeking a successor to Schlemmer. Without exception, the firefighters and EMTS were disappointed by the turn of events and urged the selectmen to meet with Schlemmer to resolve their differences. It is not clear whether such a meeting took place, but the announcement of Manville’s appointment indicates that Schlemmer and the Selectboard remain at odds.
SPYING from page 2 United States. Obama, in an African news conference with Tanzanian President Jakaya Kikwete, said the U.S. would provide allies with information about new reports that the National Security Agency had bugged EU offices in Washington, New York and Brussels. But he also suggested such activity by governments would hardly be unusual. “We should stipulate that every intelligence service —not just ours, but every European intelligence service, every Asian intelligence service, wherever there’s an intelligence service — here’s one thing that they’re going to be doing: They’re going to be trying to understand the world better, and what’s going on in world capitals around the world,” he said. “If that weren’t the case, then there’d be no use for an intelligence service.” The latest issue concerns allegations of U.S. spying on European officials in the German news weekly Der Spiegel. French President Francois Hollande on Monday demanded that the U.S. immediately stop any such eavesdropping and suggested the widening controversy could jeopardize next week’s opening of trans-Atlantic trade talks between the United States and Europe. “We cannot accept this kind of behavior from partners and allies,” Hollande said on French television. German government spokesman Steffen Seibert told reporters in Berlin, “Eavesdropping on friends is unacceptable.” He declared, “We’re not in the Cold War anymore.” Even before the latest disclosures, talks at the upcoming free-trade sessions were expected to be fragile, with disagreements surfacing over which items should be covered or excluded from an agreement. The United States has said there should be no exceptions. But France has called for exempting certain cultural products, and other Europeans do not appear eager to give up longtime agricultural subsidies. Obama said the Europeans “are
some of the closest allies that we have in the world.” But he added, “I guarantee you that in European capitals, there are people who are interested in, if not what I had for breakfast, at least what my talking points might be should I end up meeting with their leaders. That’s how intelligence services operate.” Nonetheless, Obama said he’d told his advisers to “evaluate everything that’s being claimed” and promised to share the results with allies. Meanwhile, the Interfax news agency said a Russian consular official has confirmed that Snowden had asked for asylum in Russia. Interfax cited Kim Shevchenko, the duty officer at the Russian Foreign Ministry’s consular office in Moscow’s Sheremetyevo airport, as saying that Snowden’s representative, Sarah Harrison, handed over his request on Sunday. Snowden, in legal limbo, is believed to have been in the airport’s transit zone since his arrival from Hong Kong on June 23. The U.S. has annulled his passport, and Ecuador, where he has hoped to get asylum, has been giving off mixed signals about offering him shelter. “If he wants to go somewhere and there are those who would take him, he is welcome to do so,” Putin said. “If he wants to stay here, there is one condition: He must stop his activities aimed at inflicting damage on our American partners, no matter how strange it may sound coming from my lips.” Obama said “there have been highlevel discussions with the Russians” about Snowden’s situation. “We don’t have an extradition treaty with Russia. On the other hand, you know, Mr. Snowden, we understand, has traveled there without a valid passport, without legal papers. And you know we are hopeful that the Russian government makes decisions based on the normal procedures regarding international travel and the normal procedures regarding international travel and the normal interactions that law enforcement has. So I can confirm that.”

The newly Acquired Snake River Conservation Area property as seen from Waukewan Road in New Hampton. (Courtesy photo)
Purchase of 8.1 acre tract in New Hampton will protect another 1,500 feet of Snake River frontage NEW HAMPTON — The Conservation Commission here has announced the purchase of an 8.1 acre parcel of land on the west side of the Snake River, off Waukewan Road, with almost 1500 feet of river frontage. The river flows between Winona Lake and Lake Waukewan. The land is next to an 8.5 acre parcel with about 2800 feet of river frontage that was purchased by the commission in 2010. The Snake River Conservation Area now contains virtually all the land between the railroad tracks and the river, except for the far northern end. The newly purchased property, formerly owned by Elizabeth Clingan Baird, contains wetlands and forested buffers that serve to filter the water entering Lake Waukewan. The lake is the water supply for Meredith, and drains into Meredith Bay on Lake Winnipesaukee. The purchase was made possible by a $100,000

grant from the Aquatic Resources Mitigation (ARM) Fund of the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services (DES), along with $30,000 in matching funds and contributions. The ARM Fund receives fees from development that impacts wetlands, and DES awards competitive grants to compensate for it. The money is paying not only for the purchase, but also for environmental studies, a stewardship plan, trail design and construction, and other costs. Meredith holds a conservation easement on the 8.1 acres, as it does on the 2010 purchase. The Meredith Conservation Commission has set aside $10,000 for a stewardship endowment as part of the grant match.

Granite State’s largest hospital signs onto managed care for Medicaid plan CONCORD (AP) — New Hampshire’s largest health care provider signed contracts Monday with three health care plans to join the state’s managed care network for Medicaid — a key to getting the network operating. Dartmouth-Hitchcock announced it will work with Well Sense Health Plan, Granite State Health Plan and Meridian Health Plan of New Hampshire to provide coordinated care for eligible Medicaid beneficiaries. Dartmouth-Hitchcock said that by signing with all three managed care plans, Medicaid recipients would have access to Dartmouth-Hitchcock providers regardless which plan they choose. “By taking this action today, we are acting in the best interests of New Hampshire and the people we are privileged to serve. To create a truly sustainable health system, all New Hampshire residents need access to high-quality, coordinated health care when and where it’s needed, with value-based approaches that keep our population healthy and out of the hospital,” Dartmouth-Hitchcock CEO and President Dr. James N. Weinstein said in a statement. The state has been trying to move from a fee-for-service health model to managed care for its Medicaid clients but needed participation from hospitals to make it work. New Hampshire’s Medicaid program covers low-income children, parents with nondisabled children under 18, pregnant women, senior citizens and people with disabilities. The budget that was adopted two years ago, written by Republicans, cut state hospital aid for all but a handful of critical access hospitals. Hospitals, mental health clinics and other providers refused to participate in the managed care system because of low reimbursement levels for treating Medicaid patients. The 10 largest hos-
pitals also sued over Medicaid rates, which complicated efforts to negotiate over managed care. The new budget restores some of the aid, but requires hospitals to agree in writing to participate in the managed care network by July 1 with a final agreement by Aug. 1 to receive the aid. New Hampshire’s Department of Health and Human Services also changed key rates to entice providers — especially hospitals — to participate in managed care. Under the managed care program, the state will pay the three insurance plans a set amount to care for Medicaid clients. Medicaid clients will be asked to select a plan this fall, according to Dartmouth-Hitchcock. The state will assign people who fail to choose a plan to one. DartmouthHitchcock said providers initially will be reimbursed under a fee-for-service payment model which may include incentives for improving the quality of care delivered to patients. An 11-member commission appointed this year by Gov. Maggie Hassan will monitor the program. Meanwhile, the state budget also requires a nine-member commission to begin meeting this month to study the impact and possible alternatives to expanding Medicaid under the federal health care overhaul. Hassan and the Democratic-led House wanted to authorize expansion Jan. 1 in the new state budget, but the Republicanled Senate insisted on considering the impact on New Hampshire first. The compromise was to establish the commission which is to issue its report Oct. 15. Hassan has said a special legislative session may be needed to authorize Medicaid expansion to begin capturing the estimated $2.5 billion in federal funding the state would get over seven years.
from preceding page sion acquisition of property rights outside of town boundaries under certain conditions. Approval by the selectmen of both towns was also required, and their assistance was instrumental in meeting both the legal and the ARM grant requirements. The Waukewan Shore Owners Association, now known as the Windy Waters Conservancy, provided most of the rest of the match in the form of significant amounts of attorneys’ time to negotiate the deal, and a grant of $10,000 from the New Hampshire Electric Cooperative Foundation to the Conservancy that is being used for the scientific documentation, plan-
ning, and public awareness elements of the project. New Hampton, Center Harbor, and Meredith all have frontage on Lake Waukewan. Center Harbor designated the east side of the Snake River as prime wetlands, which gives the area extra protection under state law. A Snake River Conservation Area Advisory Committee (SNARC) is meeting to consider the next steps in the project. The committee consists of representatives from the conservation commissions, the Windy Waters Conservancy, the Waukewan and Winona Watershed Protective Association, and the public.

Plymouth’s Artistic Roots gallery is owned & operated by cooperative of local artisans By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
PLYMOUTH — “Art is such a small word, but look at all we’ve got” remarked Penny Burke, a painter from New Hampton, as she cast her eyes around the diverse array of works at Artistic Roots, a gallery on the common here. Artistic Roots, together with its kissing cousin, the Squam Lakes Artisans Gallery in Holderness, are non-profit, cooperative enterprises, owned and managed by local artisans with the shared aim of encouraging those taking the artistic journey by displaying the work of individual and drawing inspiration from the group. At the same time, Artisan Roots brings artists together with the community by offering classes and workshops in different mediums as well as hosting special events. The Squam Lakes Artisans Gallery, housed alongside Kirkwood Gardens in the building provided by the Squam Lakes Science Center, operates as a seasonal gallery between Memorial Day and Columbus Day.

Artisan Roots whose work is on show in both galleries. The two cooperatives work closely together and said Barbara Platts-Comeau, president of the Squam Lakes Artisans Gallery, “share the same bookkeeper to keep us legal.” Lynn Haust of Ashland, a retired art teacher who works in glass, serves as president of Artisan Roots. She explained that all the members of the cooperative are juried, or chosen after a presentation of the their work to the group. Members pay an initial fee and monthly dues, as well as agree to work two fourhour shifts at the gallery and attend six of the 12 monthly meetings of cooperative. The gallery retains a 10 percent commission on sales each month. “We own the cooperative,” Haust said. “Everyone is an equal member and all decisions about the management and operation of the gallery are made collectively.” The galleries feature original works in a wide range of mediums. “We are an eclectic group,” said Burke, admiring a collection of handbags, scarfs and see next page

Michael Tougias Best-selling Author to Present Survival Story
Wednesday,
July 10 at 7:00 pm
Author Michael Tougias will present a slide presentation of his book, “Fatal Forecast: An Incredible True Tale of Disaster and Survival at Sea”. In November 1980, two fishing vessels set out from Cape Cod to Georges Bank. The National Weather Service had forecast typical fall weather in the area, even though the organization knew its only weather buoy at George’s Bank was malfunctioning. Soon after the boats Michael Tougia reached the fishing ground, they were hit with s hurricane force winds and massive, 60-foot waves that battered them for hours. Using slides from the actual storm and rescue, Tougias will explain one of the most remarkable survival stories ever recorded. This is an edge-of-your-seat tale you won’t want to miss.

Tyler Smith of Bestway Disposal on his route Monday morning with violation tickets for customers who don’t comply with the no loose bags policy or leave trash at the curb without separate items to be recycled. (Karen Bobotas/for the Laconia Daily Sun)
RECYCLING from page one number of containers will be issued a bright green ticket explaining the violation and their trash will be collected. However, from Monday, July 8 onward violators will be not only be ticketed but their trash will not be collected. The Monday trash collection route begins at the Dairy Queen on upper Union Avenue, runs up Weirs Boulevard and White Oaks Road then meanders through The Weirs across the northern part of the city between the Gilford and Meredith town lines. The route includes 1,121 stops, including a large number of seasonal homes. Smith said that he believes a significant share of year-round residents recycle regularly and suspects many seasonal residents were not aware of the new rules. Yesterday Smith’s trash truck worked the route in tandem with the recycling truck driven by Jamie Adams. Whichever truck first reached an address that was out of compliance, issued a ticket. Without keeping count of the violations, Smith estimated that the failure to recycle accounted for most of the violations. “Recycling seems to be the issue,” he said. “We’re not seeing too many loose
bags on this route and we are seeing more people staying within the limits on the number of containers.” Meanwhile, Ann Saltmarsh, who manages the recycling program at the Department of Public Works, said “the office has been inundated with people buying toters and getting bins.” Last year the city purchased 1,000 64-gallon wheeled toters, which it offered at the discounted price of $25. Saltmarsh said that more than 700 had been sold, many of them in the past several weeks since the announcement of the mandatory recycling program, by the close of business yesterday. The DPW has also exhausted its last batch of the 600 18-gallon, gren recycling bins. Saltmarsh said that since the city began distributing bins free of charge in the 1990s residents have taken “literally thousands.” She said that another 600 bins are on order and expects them to be available by the end of next week. In the meantime, Saltmarsh emphasized that recyclable materials can be placed at the curb in any rigid container of the property owner’s choice bearing a sticker, available at the DPW, the contents as recyclables.

Haust said that she began working with glass 20 years ago in anticipation of supplementing her pension from teaching. And Katiie Fly, a photographer from Canaan employed in the computer services department at Dartmouth College, is following her example. “Photography is an outlet to the unstructured side of my life,” she said, “but I’m also developing a retirement business.” Platts-Comeau, who with her husband Bill Comeau is one of three husband-and-wife teams among the memberships, is the recreation director at a retirement community in Concord. She makes sandcast items designed for the garden, like birdbaths and stepping stones, featuring the imprint of leaves in different colors as well as weaves baskets and works felt.

The master box maker at Canterbury Shaker Village for 22 years, Barbara Beeler of Contoocook is among the Squam Lake artisans. Unlike most, her boxes are lined, because she said “people like to use them to store precious things.” Among her apprentices was James O”Rourke, whose Shaker boxes stand alongside her own in the gallery. Joanne DeCosta, known for her fondness for chickens, turns a myriad of different materials, among them beads gathered from around the world, into brightly colored mosaics.
Ex FBI agent apologizes for tip that led to murder BOSTON (AP) — A former FBI agent who admitted taking payoffs from James “Whitey” Bulger offered a tearful apology Monday to the family of one of Bulger’s alleged murder victims, but the man’s widow said his words “didn’t mean anything.” The apology came as John Morris was being crossexamined by a defense lawyer at Bulger’s racketeering trial. Bulger, 83, is charged with participating in 19 murders in the 1970s and ‘80s while he allegedly led the notorious Winter Hill Gang. Morris testified that he told fellow FBI agent John Connolly that Edward “Brian” Halloran had given authorities information about a murder Bulger’s gang was suspected of committing. At the time, both Morris and Connolly — his subordinate — had corrupt relationships with Bulger, who he said was a longtime FBI informant at the same time he was
committing a litany of crimes. Prosecutors say Halloran and Michael Donahue — an innocent bystander who had offered Halloran a ride home — were killed in 1982 after Connolly leaked the information to Bulger. Bulger is accused of opening fire on the car as the two men left a Boston restaurant. Morris’ voice cracked and he appeared to choke back tears as he looked at Donahue’s widow, Patricia, and his three grown sons seated in the courtroom. Morris apologized for “things that I may have done and things that I didn’t do.” “Not a day in my life has gone by that I haven’t thought about this. Not a day in my life has gone by that I haven’t prayed that God gives you blessing and comfort for the pain that you suffered,” Morris said.
PRIESTS from page 2 New York archbishop and the nation’s most prominent Roman Catholic official by virtue of his position as president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops. The records provide new details on payments made to some abusers to leave the priesthood and the transfer of nearly $57 million for cemetery care into a trust as the archdiocese prepared to file for bankruptcy. Victims and their attorneys accused Dolan of bankruptcy fraud, pointing to a June 2007 letter in which he told a Vatican office that moving the money into a trust would provide “an improved protection of these funds from any legal claim and liability.” Church law requires bishops to seek Vatican approval for any property sale or asset transfer in the millions of dollars. Dolan wrote in the letter that the transfer had been approved by archdiocese’s
Financial Council and College of Consultors. A Vatican office approved the transfer within a month. Jeff Anderson, an attorney for many victims, compared that to the long lag in responses to defrock abusive priests. “These documents show that if they want to move money to protect it from survivors they can act quick as a fox,” Anderson said. “If they want to protect kids, if they have full knowledge of kids in peril, they keep it secret while the Vatican drags its feet and children are kept at peril.” In a statement, Dolan called any suggestion he was trying to shield money from victims an “old and discredited” attack. Jerry Topczewski, chief of staff for current Archbishop Jerome Listecki, said the money was always set aside in a separate fund for cemetery care and moving it to a trust just formalized that.
from preceding page “I’ll use anything,” she said, pointing to a basket with shards of pottery. “Anything broken and glueable is in danger.” Burke of New Hampton, who taught drawing and painting in the Laconia schools, works in graphite and oil. She is best known for her studies of Squam Lake, featuring old boathouses, and set of images of sugar shacks. “I’ll paint anything,” said Mary Walker, also from New Hampton, whose oils, some painted from photographs on commission, dramatically capture the light.
Both galleries sparkle with the stained glass works of Judy Detzel of Ellsworth, who recently moved to New Hampshire from western Pennsylvania. Using colored glass of subtle hues, her panels feature clear glass and bevelled edges that play with the natural light to enhance her sparing use of color. Burke said that Artistic Roots, now in into its tenth year, has been an artistic and commercial success, moving from a basement — “not the best place to display art,” she said — to expansive quarters on Main Street. Apart from the talents of its members, she traced the success to “the camaraderie among the artists. It has been extraordinary.”

Healthy Nutrition is Important for Healthy Teeth Most tooth decay can be prevented. You will have less tooth decay if you reduce the time that your teeth are exposed to refined sugars. When bacteria that are normally present in the mouth get a taste of sugar, an acid is produced. Just like any other acid – this one is corrosive. Eating or drinking sugar (soda is the worst) causes acid formation that attacks the crystal structure of your tooth enamel, and that begins the ugly process of decay. Once decay starts, it does not stop until the tooth is restored by your dentist. That’s why it’s so important to maintain professional care – regular checkups may enable your dentist to diagnose any problems as soon as they start to develop, and nip them in the bud. The deeper the cavity and the more surfaces of enamel are destroyed, the more expensive it is to repair. As we age, most teeth with big fillings will eventually break down and need further treatment such as a crown, or even root canal with post & core. Timely treatment (with fillings) may help you avoid these more challenging and complex services, saving you time, money, and mental energy. So brush & floss, avoid sugar, and with regular checkups and a little luck you may keep your natural teeth forever. George T. Felt, DDS, MAGD 9 Northview Drive 279-6959 www.meredithdental.com

Film critical of Northern Pass project to be shown next Wed. in Plymouth PLYMOUTH — The world premiere of the documentary “Northern Trespass” will be shown at the Flying Monkey Movie House and Performance Center, 39 South Main Street, on Wednesday, July 10, at 7 pm. “Northern Trespass” has been described by its creators, Indian Stream Productions and Atta Girl Records, as an expose on the Northern Pass, a controversial project of over 180 miles of 1200 MW transmission line which would dissect the state of New Hampshire from Hydro Quebec at the Canadian border down to Deerfield where the electricity will be exported to southern New England. Northern Pass has been in the planning phase since 2009 and has been a subject of contention throughout the state since then. Thirty-two towns in New Hampshire have passed ordinances opposed to the project. Environmental and conservation agencies, such as the Society for the Protection of NH’s Forests, Conservation Law Foundation, Appalachian Mountain Club, Sierra Club, Nature Conser-
vancy and many others, have come out against it. In 2012 the State passed a law prohibiting the use of eminent domain for elective transmission projects which eliminated that option for the Northern Pass project for the present. The “Northern Trespass” documentary will take the audience on a journey from Quebec, Vermont, New London, Conn., and many towns in New Hampshire, allowing them to witness firsthand how the Northern Pass would affect the tourism industry, health, the environment, the White Mountain National Forest, property value as well as New Hampshire’s greatest treasure, its scenic beauty. Doors will open at the Flying Monkey at 6 p.m. for a reception party with complimentary light refreshments. Tickets are available at the box office and online for $7. Expanded concessions available: sandwiches, hot dogs, fresh popcorn, beer & wine. The producers of the film will be available for Q & A following the film.

Speaker to talk about N.H. wildlife ASHLAND — Do you wonder why you don’t see Eastern meadowlarks anymore? Are you curious about the sighting of lynx tracks in northern New Hampshire several years ago? Would you recognize the call of the northern leopard frog if you heard it? On Wednesday, July 10, Linda Brownson, a volunteer from the Speaking for Wildlife Program, will present “Wild History: 350 Years of New Hampshire Wildlife,” from 6-7 p.m. at the Ashland Elementary School cafeteria. The presentation, part of the Speaking for Wildlife Project, will take you on
a virtual journey through New Hampshire’s past, focusing on changes in the land and how wildlife populations have responded over time. Parricipants will learn why changes in habitat in the past are behind the decline of many of the rarest species today, and see what they can do to help. This program is free and open to the public. The Speaking for Wildlife Project is a volunteer effort of UNH Cooperative Extension, the NH Coverts Project and NH Fish & Game, with funding provided by the Wellborn Ecology Fund of the NH Charitable Foundation.
ALTON — The Gilman Library will offer Oscar Night at the Movies on Friday, July 5 at 7 p.m. The movie stars Montgomery Clift and Elizabeth Taylor. Young George Eastman is thrust into the blue collar life of a rich uncle’s family business where he is expected to learn the ropes from the bottom up. While paying his dues, Eastman becomes involved with Alice Tripp, a simple, trusting girl on the assembly line.
When Eastman is finally introduced to high society he meets the gorgeous, sophisticated Angela Vickers and promptly forgets all about Alice. Only Alice won’t be gotten rid of so easily, especially since their affair is about to result in an unexpected and (especially from Eastman) unwanted dividend. Admission is free. Refreshments will be served. Children under the age of 10 must be accompanied by an adult.

Movie on how White Mountain Forest came to be to premiere at PSU
PLYMOUTH — “The People’s Forest: The Story of the White Mountain National Forest” will premiere Tuesday, July 16, at 7 p.m. in the Boyd Auditorium (Room 144) at Plymouth State University. The screening is free and open to the public. Produced by David Huntley and Moore Huntley productions, “The People’s Forest” looks at the mix of man-made disasters, colorful characters, citizen activism and political courage that brought about the protection of our National Forests through the Weeks Act of 1911. “While the dramatic chain of events depicted in the program took place well over a century ago” Huntley says,” the people involved and issues they confronted still crackle with unmistakable life and meaning.”
For “The People’s Forest,” Huntley collaborated with Plymouth State University’s Center for Rural Partnerships and The Museum of the White Mountains. The program was made possible with the generous support of Plymouth State University and inspired by a shorter video produced for The Weeks Act Centennial Committee. The main character in “The People’s Forest” is Massachusetts Congressman John Wingate Weeks. Weeks, originally from Lancaster, had already enjoyed a successful career in finance and banking before his election to Congress in 1905. While he would have a 14-year career as a congressman and then senator, his lasting contribution is the Weeks Act of 1911, which allowed the federal government to purchase private land to protect watersheds and
forests. As the film illustrates, events in New Hampshire’s North Country at the turn of the twentieth century had effects far beyond the White Mountains, including severe flooding in 1895 and 1896. These floods forced the closing of mills and other factories that depended on waterways like the Merrimack River for hydroelectric power. Thousands of people were out of work and many blamed the flooding on the impact of deforestation in the White Mountains. Citizens began to realize the connections among natural systems such as forests, watershed and rivers. Standing in the way of Weeks’ bill was a bitterlydivided Congress which had debated similar conservation legislation in previous sessions. What was new was an unlikely alliance of citizen groups, environmental activists, business leaders and members of the pulp and paper industry. The film shows the Weeks Act’s enduring impact on the landscape of New Hampshire and the United States. In the century since its passage, more than fifty-two national forests and grasslands in forty-one states – more than twenty million acres – are now protected. Filmmaker David Huntley specializes in productions in extreme and isolated environments, from the Arctic tundra to the jungles of Central America. He has produced, directed and written for PBS televisions series such as NOVA and Scientific American Frontiers with Alan Alda, and specials and series for the History Channel, Discovery and National Geographic. “This documentary of the Weeks Act is a remarkable piece of work,” noted Thad Guldbrandsen, Vice Provost for Research & Engagement at Plymouth State University. “We are fortunate to have worked with David Huntley, a world-class film maker with roots in the White Mountains. I think everyone is going be really pleased with the short video he produced for the Centennial of the Weeks Act, as well as this longer, broadcast length documentary that we expect will reach a national audience.”
Participants sought for arts and crafts festival SANDWICH — Sandwich Home Industries has issued its final call for Artisans to register for the 5th annual Artisans on the Green (AOG) art and craft festival. The event will be part of the town of Sandwich’s Old Home week and will take place on Thursday August 15. Registration forms are available at the SHI Gallery, Yikes, and VynnArt. Artisans can also email a request for a form at pkvanwinkle@ yahoo.com. Thanks to a gift from the Quimby Trust, the Industries has increased the Green in front of their Gallery by clearing and landscaping the adjacent lot. The event, that this year may well attract over 60 artisans, is free to the public and runs from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.. All artisans are welcome to register so long as their work is created themselves. “There are basically two venues for artisans, the first and most popular is getting a space on the green and setting up a mini-studio” said Ben Adriance, trustee of the Industries, “they rent the space for $75 and pay no commission or other charges.” Sales of items are an important aspect of the event, but the educational component separates this event from so many like it. Virtually 100% of the artisans bring the tools of their work to the event and can demonstrate and explain how they create their art. For those with fewer items, the festival erects a “Fine Arts tent” and provides panels for artisans to hang their work. This becomes an Art exhibit that brings many artisans together to show their work and offer it for sale. Artisans pay $25 for a full 8’x 4’ panel, ($10 for ½ a panel) and also pay no commission. The industries provides a cashier so individual artists need not stay. “One of the most dramatic changes this year is see ARTISANS page 28
Mid-State Health Center breaks ground for new facility in Bristol BRISTOL — Mid-State Health Center hosted a groundbreaking ceremony on June 24 for its new primary care facility in Bristol on Robie Road. It will replace their existing facility on Lake Street and will be the new home for its Bristol team including Dr. Diederich, Dr. Lloyd, Dr. Berry and Dr. Warren. The new facility will offer primary care, behavioral health, dental health, pharmacy and laborator services. Plans also include a community space available to area organizations for meetings. Sharon Beaty, Mid-State’s CEO shared, “the new primary health care facility in Bristol is designed specifically for the delivery of high-quality, innovative, patient-centered care in a welcoming and comfortable environment for our patients in the Bristol
region”. Financing for this project was made possible through the support of a USDA Rural Development Community Facilities Loan. Rhonda Shippee, USDA’s VT/NH Community Programs Director also attended the milestone event for this primary care organization. Shippee said, “USDA Rural Development is pleased to support Mid-State Health Center with financing for their new health center in Bristol. Access to quality health care for rural communities is a focus of our Community Facility Program. We look forward to working with Mid-State on this exciting expansion.” This event offered the opportunity for Mid-State to introduce their contractor for the project, James J. Welch & Co.

Your lucky numbers are: 3, 14, 38, 11 and 24.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). As the saying goes, “From an acorn grows a mighty oak.” But acorns need sunlight and plenty of water to take root. Be sure your little idea is getting all the tending it needs to grow into a big idea. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Like a cosmetic advertiser, life might try to convince you that what’s in the bottle will make you beautiful for $100. Do your research, though, because there’s a $3 version that’s just as effective. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You know the truth when you hear it. It’s that spontaneous bit of information blurted from out of the blue. Believing one true thing will change your whole day for the better. CANCER (June 22-July 22). The ocean of your life is bright blue and definitely enchanting. A shark will shout, “Come on in! The water’s fine!” This might be quite a novelty, but be wary: A talking shark is still very much a shark. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Don’t be too afraid to make the wrong choice. Wrong choices lead to right choices. Bonus: They make your life and work complex, informed and beautiful along the way. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’re an artist honing your aesthetic. Maybe you don’t relate to these terms. Perhaps you doubt your own taste. Still, you can’t deny that you feel creative. What do you want things to look like? You’ll make it so. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). An old joke: Time flies like an arrow, fruit flies like a banana. But don’t forget that time can be a banana, too. If you never peel it and open yourself up to new experiences, you’ll never taste its riches. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’re catching vibes that people don’t even know they’re sending. You read micro facial expressions and shifts of body language like an expert and learn all you want to know. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). People who say they need a fast answer or they’ll withdraw their offer are using scarcity tactics. You don’t have to fall for this. Be shrewd. Buy time before you buy anything else.

Saturday’s Answer
THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Tuesday, July 2, 2013— Page 27
––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Tuesday, July 2, the 183rd day of 2013. There are 182 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On July 2, 1963, President John F. Kennedy met Pope Paul VI at the Vatican, the first meeting between a Catholic U.S. chief executive and the head of the Roman Catholic Church. On this date: In 1776, the Continental Congress passed a resolution saying that “these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States.” In 1812, Connecticut Gov. Roger Griswold declared his state’s militia would not serve in the war against Britain, reflecting New Englanders’ opposition to the conflict. In 1881, President James A. Garfield was shot by Charles J. Guiteau at the Washington railroad station; Garfield died the following September. (Guiteau was hanged in June 1882.) In 1926, the United States Army Air Corps was created. In 1937, aviator Amelia Earhart and navigator Fred Noonan disappeared over the Pacific Ocean while attempting to make the first round-the-world flight along the equator. In 1943, Bing Crosby and the Ken Darby Singers recorded “Sunday, Monday or Always” for Decca Records. In 1961, author Ernest Hemingway shot himself to death at his home in Ketchum, Idaho. In 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed into law a sweeping civil rights bill passed by Congress. In 1973, actress Betty Grable, 56, died in Santa Monica, Calif. In 1982, Larry Walters of San Pedro, Calif., used a lawn chair equipped with 45 helium-filled weather balloons to rise to an altitude of 16,000 feet; he landed eight miles away in Long Beach. In 1997, actor James Stewart died in Beverly Hills, Calif., at age 89. In 2002, American adventurer Steve Fossett became the first person to fly a balloon solo around the world as he returned to western Australia. Ten years ago: Palestinian police marched into Bethlehem, taking control of the ancient West Bank city after Israel withdrew under a U.S.backed peace plan. Vancouver was awarded the 2010 Winter Olympics. Five years ago: Colombian military spies tricked leftist rebels into freeing 15 hostages: Ex-presidential candidate Ingrid Betancourt, three U.S. military contractors, and 11 Colombian policemen and soldiers. Police in Randolph, Vt., unearthed the body of 12-year-old Brooke Bennett from a makeshift grave, ending a weeklong search. (The girl’s uncle, Michael Jacques (JAKES), has pleaded not guilty to rape and murder.) One year ago: Jim Yong Kim began his new job as president of the World Bank, promising to immediately focus on helping poor countries navigate a fragile global economy. The U.S. Justice Department said British drugmaker GlaxoSmithKline would pay $3 billion in fines for criminal and civil violations involving 10 drugs taken by millions of people.

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Tuesday, July 2, 2013— Page 29
ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Annie: I have a lifelong friend who, over the past 10 years, has gotten so steeped in her church that she has become unbearable. She tells me constantly (bragging is more like it) about how her God has blessed her and her family with their new house, all her lovely grandchildren, and getting her together with her current husband (they met online after two divorces). She says she has received everything she has prayed for and goes on about what an amazing job God has done for her family. I mean, it’s getting hard to listen to. I don’t want to sound sour, but my circumstances are vastly different, and she knows it. I lost my husband to homicide, and my son passed away at a young age. It seems everything in my life has been an ice-cream cone in the dirt. After one too many losses, I figured there was no God and have given up on religion. I can’t help but be jealous of her good fortune, yet I always reply by saying how happy I am for her. Still, it seems as if she is trying to rub my nose in it. I keep my mouth shut as she goes on and on about how God is blessing her daily. Do you have any ideas short of scrapping the 60-year-old friendship? -- Friendship Woes Dear Friendship: You might remind her that “the Lord giveth, and the Lord taketh away.” She has every reason to be grateful for her blessings, but shoving them in your face is ungracious and shows a lack of consideration for your circumstances. Perhaps this is her misguided attempt to bring you into her religious circle, but it is not working. Tell her gently that you are certain she doesn’t intend to hurt you by constantly boasting about her blessings, but you would appreciate it if she would stop before it becomes too much to bear. Dear Annie: My only child just graduated high school.
Her summer is full of parties, working and having fun with her friends. This includes staying out later on weekday evenings. As the only parent, I work full time and need to be in bed by a decent time. I don’t want to be awakened by her coming home or, worse, worrying about whether she’s OK. She’s a great girl with a good head on her shoulders. But as a widow, I know firsthand that bad things can happen to the people you love. How do I deal with this new wrinkle as my daughter teeters on the brink of adulthood? She still needs rules and guidance. I don’t want to be overprotective. Is there a compromise that will put my mind at ease and let her enjoy her summer? -- Mom Dear Mom: You are smart to anticipate these problems and understand the pitfalls. First, if your daughter has a job, she, too, needs to get some rest. Discuss this with her. Explain the problem from your perspective, and let her weigh in. Work out a “contract,” in which she agrees to respond promptly to your calls or texts and to call if she cannot get home safely, and you agree to pick her up, etc. But you cannot protect her from everything, Mom, and in the near future, you will have no control over it anyway. It will help if you train yourself in the difficult task of letting go. Dear Annie: Your reply to “Need Help in California” was right on. My cousin has been married to her first cousin for more than 50 years. They have raised four healthy, intelligent kids who have subsequently given birth to healthy, intelligent grandkids. Our extended family may have fretted a bit at first, but we loved them and noticed immediately that they were a great match. They still are. -- California Cousin Now in Hawaii

Annual golf classic raises more than $45,000 for dental health program at Speare Memorial Hospital PLYMOUTH — Speare Memorial Hospital raised over $45,000 at its 15th Annual Golf Classic held at Owl’s Nest Resort & Golf Club, the proceeds from which benefit the Dental Health Program offering preventative dental services to infants through adults. Dental Hygentist Ruth Doane thanked the events’ sponsors, donors and players for their support and shared how their contributions make a difference every day. She explained, “The funds raised help children like a teenage boy I worked with. He was a quiet, shy person, who really didn’t engage much. When I had the opportunity to do a dental screening on him, I saw he was in need of a great deal of care.

ing, engaging, and among the first to participate in class.” This is just one example of how the program has improved access to dental care—the number one most pressing health issue identified by residents of the central New Hampshire communities. Speare’s Dental Health Program began in 1998 to specifically target this community need. Working in collaboration with School Administrative Unit 48, the Ashland, Lin-wood and Warren School Districts, Plymouth Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine and Plymouth OB/GYN, the Dental Health Program’s services include: free dental screenings and fluoride varnish applications; dental cleanings and sealants to school-aged children on a sliding fee scale, to “at risk” pregnant women and the homeless; restorative care for children who are in pain from decay
