Correction: Gilford has taken no action on Kimball Castle GILFORD — The company that owns Kimball Castle has submitted a draft legal pleading that would have the town in its capacity as trustee of the Kimball Castle Trust ask Superior Court to alter the terms of the trust and allow the company to tear it down.

On yesterday’s front page, The Daily Sun ran an incorrect story that said the town has already filed the pleading in Belknap County Superior see CasTLe page 8

Tilton store 1 of 6 Shaw’s is closing in N.H.

By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

TILTON — “It’s huge loss to the town,” said Pat Consentino, who chairs the Board of Selectmen, in response to the announcement that the Shaw’s Supermarket near Exit 20 is one of the six in New Hampshire the company will close by September 2.

“Over the years Shaw’s has been very generous to this community and most recently was a strong supporter of our Senior Center,” Consentino said, who added that the loss of jobs would also adversely affect the town.

On Monday the company announced that stores in Manchester, Keene, Seabrook, Goff-

stown and West Lebanon as well as Tilton would be closed.

In a prepared statement Steve Sylven, a corporate spokesman, said that “we strive to ensure the success of all our stores, however, it is occasionally necessary for us to close those that are not meeting company goals or that do not fit into our longterm strategy.” He added that

the six stores have not been profitable for some time.

In fact, Shaw’s has been struggling since at least 2006 when the company, consisting of Shaw’s and Star Market operated 212 stores in the six New England states, was acquired by Supervalu, Inc. of Eden Prairie, Minnesota. Soon see sHaw’s page 11

House to be sold to benefit Children’s Auction taking shape

By RogeR aMsden THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA — A home which is being built by local builders to benefit the WLNH Children’s Auction is rapidly taking shape in the Windermere Ridge development off from Parade Road.

Crews from Hayward and Company Log and Timber Homes have completely framed and roofed what will become a

2,200-square-foot, three bedroom home on Turner Way which will go on the market this fall as the featured property in the 2013 Lakes Region Parade of Homes.

The project is being undertaken by the Lakes Region Builders and Remodelers Association (LRBRA) with the proceeds from the sale going to the 32nd annual auction in December. ‘’We’re making good progress and get-

Police say Seabrook woman told her kids bleach was ‘medicine

SEABROOK (AP) — A Seabrook woman accused of pouring bleach down her children’s throats told them it was medicine, according to police documents.

Police affidavits in the case of Wendy Wright, 33, were released Monday after she waived her right to a probable cause hearing, the Portsmouth Herald reported.

Charged with firstdegree assault, Wright is accused of making her 6-year-old son and 7-yearold daughter drink bleach at their home on June 18.

Police say the children spit most of it out and went to a neighbor’s home for help.

The neighbor told police the girl “barged in” the back door and asked “if her and her brother can stay here for an hour while (their) mother is sick,” the neighbor wrote in a statement to police. “(The) girl said the mother (took) medicine and (the) mother made (the) boy and girl take see BLEACH page 10

Private Manning found guilty of 20 charges, but not of ‘aiding the enemy’ by giving secret documents to WikiLeaks FORT MEADE, Md. (AP) — In a split decision, U.S. Army Pfc. Bradley Manning was acquitted Tuesday of aiding the enemy — the most serious charge he faced — but was convicted of espionage, theft and nearly every other count for giving secrets to WikiLeaks, a verdict that could see him spend the rest of his life in prison.

The judge, Army Col. Denise Lind, deliberated over three days before delivering a decision that denied the government a

precedent that freedom of press advocates had warned could have broad implications for leak cases and investigative journalism about national security issues.

From the courtroom to world capitals, people struggled to absorb the meaning of a ruling that cleared the soldier of a charge of aiding the enemy, which would have carried a potential life sentence, but convicted him of 20 of 22 counts that, together, could also mean life behind bars.

Manning faces up to 136 years in prison if given maximum penalties in a sentencing hearing that starts Wednesday. It is expected to last most of August.

The 25-year-old soldier stood quietly at attention in his dress uniform, flanked by his attorneys, as the verdict was delivered. He appeared not to react, though his attorney, David Coombs, smiled faintly when he heard “not guilty” on the aiding the enemy charge. see WIKILEAKS page 11

TAVARES, Fla. (AP) — After hearing two explosions, maintenance worker Gene Williams looked outside to see a 20-by-20 foot fireball rising above an outdoor storage area at the Blue Rhino propane plant.

Moments later, a forklift worker stumbled into the building with flesh hanging off his hands. His legs and face were burned.

Exploding 20-pound canisters of propane began raining down around them during

the series of explosions late Monday night.

Bright orange flames would grow as high as 200 feet, fueled by the exploding canisters that shot through the air like fireworks. Houses nearby shook and residents awakened to the sound of “boom after boom after boom.”

No one died, but eight workers were injured, including one worker who was hit by a car on a nearby road while fleeing

the explosions. Officials said the damage could have been significantly worse if three 30,000-pound propane storage containers had caught fire at the plant that refills propane tanks for gas grills and other home uses. About 50 nearby houses were temporarily evacuated, though none was ultimately damaged.

If the large tanks had exploded, “it would see EXPLOSION page 10

WASHINGTON (AP) — Pressing ahead in a new U.S.-backed push for Middle East peace, Israeli and Palestinian negotiators agreed Tuesday to meet again within two weeks to start substantive talks in hopes of reaching a long-elusive settlement within

nine months.

Speaking after the two sides wrapped up an initial two days of talks at the State Department and visited President Barack Obama at the White House, Secretary of State John Kerry said Israel and the Pal-

estinians were committed to sustained and serious negotiations on the “core issues” that divide them. The next round will take place in either Israel or the Palestinian territories before mid-August, he said. see PEACE page 3

David Bartlett named Tilton Selectboard to entertain questions about assistant principal at LHS looming pay-as-you-throw program on Thursday

LACONIA — David Bartlett has been named assistant principal at Laconia High School.

Bartlett has worked in the Gilford School District since 2009 and had been previously employed with the Laconia School District as an alternative education teacher and special education teacher. He replaces Dave Levesque, who David Bartlett was recently named principal (Courtesy photo) of Laconia’s Pleasant Street Elementary School.

“David Bartlett’s leadership style is anchored in specific core values, setting high standards through role modeling and participation,” said Terri L. Forsten, superintendent of school, in making the announcement on Tuesday. “He believes the most effective schools occur when all stakeholders in the community share a common vision that maintains high standards for all students. He is self-motivated, goal oriented and deeply committed to reaching students, supporting teachers and connecting with parents and the community.” ‘’We believe he will bring valuable skills to the position, including the abilities to think outside the box, focus on success for all learners, and promote a professional learning community approach to improving student learning,’’ added Forsten.

Bartlett is married to Shannon Bartlett and has two sons, Tucker and Ryan, and a daughter, Haley. from preceding page Kerry said he was aware of the deep doubts surrounding the new peace effort and acknowledged that the road would be difficult. Yet, he said, “While I understand the skepticism, I don’t share it. And I don’t think we have time for it.”

All issues, including contentious disputes over the status of the territories and Jerusalem, are “on the table for negotiation, and they are on the table with one simple goal: a view to ending the conflict,” Kerry said.

The U.S. had already said the negotiations would continue for at least nine months — roughly until the end of April 2014 — but that had not been set as a timeframe for reaching a deal. Kerry and both sides agreed that neither would walk away from the talks or take actions that could disrupt them for that period, two senior U.S. officials said. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to discuss diplomatic talks.

However, the officials also said they expect that the Israelis, over U.S. objections, will continue constructing housing for Jewish settlers on land claimed by the Palestinians over the course of the negotiations, an indication the Palestinians are serious about dropping their longstanding demand for a settlement freeze before returning to talks. The officials said the U.S. believes the Palestinians also will not attempt to win further international recognition as a state until a peace deal is completed, an effort that one official likened to a potential “train wreck.”

Kerry said that Israel, which agreed on Sunday to release more than 100 Palestinian prisoners as a goodwill gesture, would also take unspecified steps in the coming days to ease harsh living conditions in the West Bank and Gaza. The two senior officials said those measures complement a $4 billion private sector economic program that Kerry is trying put in place to assist the Palestinians.

After Tuesday’s conclusion of preliminary talks, Kerry said, “I firmly believe the leaders, the negotiators and citizens invested in this effort can make peace for one simple reason: because they must.” He said, “A viable two-state solution is the only way this conflict can end. And there is not much time to achieve it.”

Kerry said the negotiations, to be mediated on a day-to-day basis by his new Mideast peace envoy, Martin Indyk, would be cloaked in secrecy and that the parties had agreed that he would be the only person to comment on them.

TILTON — Pat Consentino, who chairs the Board of Selectmen, said yesterday “we are very close to setting a date to begin the ‘Pay-As-You-Throw’ (PAYT) program,” explaining that “we are holding a public meeting on Thursday and if there are no huge problems raised, we could set a (start) date after the meeting or when we meet a week later.”

Curbside collection of recyclable materials every other week began on July 8, after some 1,200 recycling bins were distributed throughout the town.

Consentino said that more than nine tons of recyclables were collected during the first cycle and more than eleven tons during the second.

Introducing PAYT is the second step in the effort to reduce the cost of collecting, hauling and disposing of

solid waste. Marjorie Bonneville, who chairs the Recycling Committee, said that the committee decided “to give residents a chance to see how much they can recycle and how little trash they will have before beginning PAYT.” The specially marked bags, in two sizes — 15 gallons for $1 and 30 gallons for $1.50 — are in stock at a half-dozen stores in town and will go on sale about two weeks before the program begins.

“We want to make sure people understand how the program will work,” Consentino said, “and we are still getting lots questions. That’s why we’re having the meeting and we hope anyone who has questions will be there.”

The meeting will be held on Thursday, August 1 at Town Hall, beginning at 6 p.m. — Michael Kitch

Were progressivism is leading us “Progressivism leads inevitably to utter irrationality and eventually political, as well as moral, chaos.”

So writes editor R.V. Young in the summer issue of Modern Age, the journal of which Russell Kirk was founding editor.

The magazine arrived with the latest post from our cultural capital, where the now former front-runner in the mayoral race, Anthony Weiner, aka Carlos Danger, was again caught “sexting” photos of his privates, this time to a 22-year-old woman.

That broke it for The New York Times: “The serially evasive Mr. Weiner should take his marital troubles and personal compulsions out of the public eye, away from cameras, off the Web and out of the race for mayor of New York City.”

And Weiner’s conduct does seem weird, creepy, crazy. But it was not illegal. And as it was between consenting adults, was it immoral — by the standards of modern liberalism?

In 1973, the “Humanist Manifesto II,” a moral foundation for much of American law, declared: “The many varieties of sexual exploration should not in themselves be considered ‘evil.’ ... Individuals should be permitted to express their sexual proclivities and pursue their lifestyles as they desire.”

Is this not what Anthony was up to? Why then the indignation?

Consider how far we are along the path that liberalism equates with social and moral progress. Ronald Reagan was the first and is the only divorced and remarried man elected president. But the former front-runner in the New York mayor’s race quit Congress as a serial texter of lewd photos to anonymous women. The front-runner in the city comptroller’s race was “Client No. 9” in the prostitution ring of the convicted madam who is running against him.

Weiner’s strongest challenger for mayor is a lesbian about to marry another lesbian. The sitting mayor and governor are divorced and living with women not their wives. The former mayor’s second wife had to go to court to stop his girlfriend from showing up at Gracie Mansion.

Weiner looks like a mainstream liberal.

On cable channels we hear cries that Weiner is “mentally sick.” Excolleague Rep. Jerrold Nadler says Weiner needs “psychiatric help.”

Whoa, Jerry. Up to 1973, the American Psychiatric Association said homosexuality was a mental disorder. The APA now regrets that.

And why is Weiner’s private sexting a sign of mental illness, when kids all over America are engaged in the same thing every day?

Are we, possibly, a mentally and morally sick society?

Thirty year ago, homosexual acts were crimes. The Supreme Court

has since discovered sodomy to be a constitutional right. State courts are discovering another new right — of homosexuals to marry.

To call homosexuality unnatural, immoral or a mental disorder will soon constitute a hate crime in America.

Once we cast aside morality rooted in religion — as the “Humanist Manifesto II” insists we do — who draws the line on what is tolerable in the new dispensation?

Upon what moral ground do we stand to deny a man many wives, should he wish to leave behind many children, and the wives all consent to the arrangement? Biblically and historically, polygamy was more acceptable than homosexuality. The second is now a constitutional right. Why not the first?

Are we not indeed headed “inevitably to utter irrationality and eventually political, as well as moral, chaos”?

Mayor Rudy Giuliani and Sen. Hillary Clinton marched in gay pride parades with the North American Man/Boy Love Association. Anyone doubt that NAMBLA will one day succeed in having the age of consent for sex between men and boys dropped into the middle or low teens?

The Federal Drug Administration has approved over-the-counter sales of birth control pills to 11-year-old girls. High schools have been handing out condoms, pills and patches to students for years. If sex among teenagers is natural and normal, and homosexual sex is natural and normal, upon what moral ground does liberalism stand to deny teens the right to consensual sex with the men and women they love?

Is denying this not age discrimination? What liberal can be for that?

Years ago, Dr. Judith Reisman exposed the fraud of Dr. Alfred Kinsey. The only way Kinsey could have gathered the data for his “Sexual Behavior and the Human Male,” on how children and even infants supposedly enjoy and benefit from sex, is by interviewing perverts and child abusers, or conducting the perversions themselves.

Yet, sex with sub-teens is surely on some future progressive agenda.

One suspects the Times does not really have any moral objection to what Weiner is up to on his cellphone. The Times just does not want the city it celebrates as America’s citadel of progressivism to be made a staple of late night comedians — and a running joke for the rest of us out here in Cracker Country.

However, as America needs to see where progressivism is leading what we used to call God’s country, perhaps it might be well if New York came out of the closet by electing the ticket of Carlos Danger and Client No. 9.

To borrow a political slogan from ‘72 : “Weiner & Spitzer — Now More Than Ever!”

LETTERS Martin/Zimmerman incident revealed corruption of our media To The Daily Sun, The Zimmerman-Martin incident and aftermath is sad on many levels.

Martin is dead. Facing death threats, Zimmerman lives in hiding. Both families are devastated.

People, “getting justice for Trayvon” create other victims. The media demonstrated its corruption. Political pressure forced an indictment when one may not have been warranted, raising questions whether any of us can be assured of getting fair treatment by the law. The usual race-baiters did their best with the help of the media and President Obama to roll back our progress to a colorblind society.

People make claims without any evidence. A recent headline declares, “Would Zimmerman have picked a fight if he hadn’t been armed?” There is no evidence that that Zimmerman either confronted or started any physical interaction with Martin. Others say Martin would be alive if he were white, yet who considers race, or anything besides survival, when someone who is killing us? The prosecution, the defense, and FBI investigators indicated that race was not a factor. If you spent many lonely hours trying to protect your neighbors from further harm, would the race of a suspiciously acting person change your actions? No. Others say the shooting wouldn’t have happened if Zimmerman had acted differently (although he acted legally). But it wouldn’t have happened if Martin had just continued home, if Martin hadn’t been expelled from school, or maybe if Martin hadn’t been

taking behavior-altering substances.

The police felt there was inadequate evidence to charge Zimmerman with a crime. The jury apparently agreed, even though they were denied much evidence about Martin’s character including that he had been discovered with burglar tools and stolen property.

Why did the media sensationalize this incident? Why alter Zimmerman’s 911 calls? Why suppress exculpatory evidence and publish misleading photos and information about Zimmerman and Martin? Why use the term “white Hispanic” for Zimmerman who is halfwhite, just like President Obama?

Was the media just trying to create a story? To fan racial hatred? To distract minorities from how much they are suffering under President Obama’s policies? To distract the public from Obama’s scandals?

Do Obama and Holder have so much contempt for our justice system and the American people (police, prosecutors, judges, jurors, etc.) that they feel entitled to determine the outcome of this (or any) incident? Or, did they too welcome a distraction from Obama’s failures and scandals?

As sad as this incident is for the Martins and Zimmermans, it is equally as sad for our country. This incident reveals the total corruption of our media, the Obama administration’s inappropriate influence on our justice system and their willingness to stoke racial strife for political gain.

VA does offer out-patient care in Manchester & elsewhere in N.H. To The Daily Sun, I enjoyed Bob Meade’s article regarding veteran’s benefits that ran in the July 23 edition. It was well written and informative. I would like to add a bit of additional information to his next to last paragraph, in which he stated there is no VA hospital in New Hampshire. That is true in the sense that there is not an inpatient facility, however, the VA operates the VA Medical Center at 718 Smyth Road in Manchester, . A variety of primary care and specialty clinics can be found there as well as several other services that may be required by the veteran. This facility also operates four Community Based Outpatient Care ( CBOC ) clinics in Tilton, Portsmouth,

Somersworth and Conway.

Veterans who require inpatient care are provided care at other VA hospitals in New England, primarily in Massachusetts. Through an expansion of inpatient care, the VA has contracted with Concord Hospital. This provides local care for the convenience of the patient and his/her family and meets the intent of the bills submitted by Sen. Shaheen (SR239) and Rep. Shea-Porter (HR190) to provide N.H. veterans with the same level of care that the VA provides to veterans in other states. For more information log on to www.manchester.VA.gov.

LETTERS What % of inmates will really be rehabilitated with new programs?

To The Daily Sun, I first want to commend you for the article you printed in The Daily sun on the horrible conditions at the Belknap County Jail. I must have gone through a whole box of Kleenex while reading how these people who have smoked dope, sold drugs, invaded homes, stolen items and snatched purses from people in parking lots should have better living conditions. Maybe we should set them up with a situation like the Taylor Community, but first, before we spend $42 million plus hire 21 new staff members, please be honest with the taxpayers in the county and let them know just what the percentage of inmates will really be rehabilitated because we have all these educational programs for them

— and we should be told what its going to cost to hire 21 new personnel. Also, what will all these new programs cost?

The conditions at Belknap seem to be a lot better than tent city in Arizona or the conditions our proud service troops endure in foreign lands.

GOD BLESS THESE TROOPS, if it was not for them we would not be able to discuss these matters.

I personally am not against a better facility but please be honest with the taxpayers and let them know what they are really getting for all this money — and please don’t throw out false numbers.

Thank you for letting us vent.

Beware N.H., GOP is turning North Carolina into a dictatorship To The Daily Sun, The only way the GOP’ers can win a major election is to suppress voter’s rights. They will give the excuse that it happens a lot, once or twice every 10 years, maybe. Hardly ever a conviction, so the no-spend party will spend millions to change the voting laws to outlaw most everyone’s vote.

This could happen here if they gain more power in the next election. In N.C., student’s parents will be fined if the kids vote at their school, they are making it almost impossible to register as most ID’s are not accepted. They need state issued ID cards only. Almost impossible to get. But rest assured as the cost is paid for by the voters after which their right to vote will be eliminated.

There are other new laws down there, most of which make the word equality obsolete. Teachers will be forced to teach heath care lies to 6-8th graders.

Public schools are closing and 90 million is being invested in private schools.

Remember Romney and son Tagg. They will be making a fortune on these private schools. Numerous unemployed will be kicked off and benefits cut off. I agree that collecting is not for life but in an emergency it is essential. This is not a democracy in N.C. but a dictatorship, with the GOP running it all.

My advise in New Hampshire is to NOT let it happen here or some freedoms will disappear.

LETTERS I get 2 to 4 calls a day from people trying to sell me something To The Daily Sun, I was wondering if anyone else has subscriptions to a magazine or two, because I have. The problem was I gave a subscription to a daughter and I wasn’t going to do it another year so I did not renew it. Well I received a bill for another year! I called and they told me I had!

It had showed up on their computer that I had and I told them I hadn’t.

Well I decided to let it go this time.

Then I was still receiving magazines myself and I hadn’t ever renewed a bill for another year. I called and they told me the same story. But I hadn’t.

But I did want it because I really like their magazine. It is very helpful in products you buy and if they are good or not and subjects cover all sorts of things and there are no ads in them.

Well that settled, I received mail from another magazine company and they had a contest with thickets saying you may have the winning ticket for a new car and then they asked if you wanted a subscription. I checked no!

Well a while later I started receiving a bill for a magazine but I put off

paying for it. I wouldn’t owe that if I had not ordered it because it was in the line of the other magazine I was reading and liked so much. But I still did not send in a payment. Well about three weeks later I received a magazine. Then I realized that the magazine was for the bills I was receiving and I realized I did not order this. So I put cancel on the bill and sent it to them. Meanwhile, I received the free copy they promised to send with the subscription. Well I do like the magazine very much and I can compare what each one has to say that will help with shopping and buying and products that are good and things and companies to stay away from! So I may subscribe.

Also, I get anywhere from two to four phone calls a day to try to sell me something and I have been receiving calls for almost a week now. Some calls after 8 p.m. I am so sick of it and I was wondering what I could do about them. Now I pick up the phone and hang up on them. Just received another call!

To The Daily Sun, Thanks for informing us Mr. Maloof that you are 60 percent a banana, 90 percent a mouse, and 99 percent monkey — that explains why you write such foolish letters.

Seven out of every 10 Americans, believes that the Holy Bible is God’s words; it tells us how to live, and how to die.

I am a Christian and not afraid of death, because Jesus Christ rose from the grave and promised that if we believed in him we would not perish but have eternal life (John 3:16).

Jesus Christ said I have come that you might have life and have it more abundantly (John 10:10).

To have everlasting life all we have to do is repent of our sins, ask Jesus into your heart by faith, and you will become a child of God. Saint Paul said, For he (God) has made him (Jesus) to be sin for us, who knew no sin, that we might be made the righteousness of God, in Christ (11 Cor 5:21). Also

To The Daily Sun, “There are alternatives to violence” wrote Rev. Jed Rardin, pastor of South Congregational Church in Concord, in a recent op-ed. I pick out especially, “Good peacemaking rests on the ability to imagine something good.” This ties well to an upcoming New Hampshire Peace Action event, for which the public is needed, and perhaps the public will feel they need the event. On Saturday, September 21st, International Day of Peace, we have reserved the Statehouse’s front lawn for “Art for Peace.” From 11 a.m. through 3:00 p.m., New Hampshire Peace Action provides the opportunity to display art that shows what the artist imagines a world at peace looks like.

Any media is welcome, with artists bringing their work to the lawn for

display. Our website has a registration form. Lunch will be for sale near the street, front sidewalk. Art supplies will be on hand for spontaneous renditions of “a world at peace looks like this.” Every age participant is welcome. School will have just started — maybe art teachers and Sunday school teachers can work this into their plans. Retirement communities may have art to enter. This is not a contest. This is a come-together time and elevate peace time.

Peter Miller at his home in Meredith (Karen Bobotas/for The Laconia Daily Sun)

‘So Fade the Lovely’

Former Meredith selectman authors mystery set around fictitious N.H. lake

By Mike Mortensen THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

MEREDITH — Peter Miller has spent much of his life delving into the complexities of human nature.

As a psychologist Miller has both taught the subject as well as counseled people struggling to come to grips with emotional turmoil. Now, Miller brings his insights about the psyche to bear in the just-released “So Fade the Lovely,” a mystery set in a fictitious Lakes Region town in the 1960s.

The book’s main plot revolves around a family’s attempt to learn the fate of a 14-year-old girl who disappeared in a blizzard. Her family hires a psychotherapist to do a psychological post-mortem. Did the girl become disoriented in the blizzard and fall through the ice on Lake Wonalancet?

Or did she commit suicide, as some of the writings later found in her dresser would seem to suggest?

“So Fade the Lovely” is based on seven months of journal entries written by Jason Matthews, the psychotherapist hired by Nicole Murdoch’s family, and the mystery’s protagonist.

“I did borrow extensively from myself (in creating Matthews’ character),” Miller says with a grin. “He’s somewhat lacking in self-confidence in romantic relationships. Music is terribly important to him. And he’s a knowledgeable hiker.” But Jason’s Matthews is not Miller’s alter ego. “He is not hearing impaired, a huge difference. (And) he is nearly a decade older, thus his formative years occurred during the Great Depression and World War II,” notes Miller.

While “So Fade the Lovely” marks Miller’s debut as a mystery writer, he has one other book out and another one is in the works. Last year he published “Seven Canterbury Tales,

Retold” a series of short stories or novellas inspired by the Geoffrey Chaucer classic. Miller’s current project is writing a biography of the 19th century Quaker, Jane Durgin. What makes Durgin, who lived in Sandwich, such a compelling figure, says Miller, is that she defied many of the norms of her time, both in terms of her religion as well as her gender.

Like Thomas Edison’s definition of genius, Miller’s authorship of “So Fades the Lovely” has been 1 percent inspiration and 99 percent perspiration. The idea for the story had been “percolating in my imagination” for a number of years. In 2008 he took about a year to write the draft. Once the draft was finished he put it aside for a while. He then took a fresh look at it “to see if it would pass muster.”

He then revised the story and had it ready to be published this past March or April.

While “So Fades the Lovely” hinges on the efforts to unravel the mysteries surrounding the disappearance of a young girl and her family’s efforts to cope with her loss, it also relates how as small town and a country struggle to come to grips with the upheavals of change and loss. The people of Dicey’s Mill struggle to get back to life as normal which includes once again having fun at Lake Wonalancet, where Nicole Murdoch may have died.

And Jason Matthews’ journal entries include headlines and commentary on some of the major news events of the mid-1960s, notably the Vietnam War and the civil rights movement.

Sitting on a tall stool pulled up to the kitchen counter in the home Miller and his wife, Dotty Treisner, share with two very friendly golden retrievers, the author says that “So Fades the Lovely” is as much a novel as mystery. see next page

Titeflex Aerospace determined to help alleviate workforce shortage in advanced manufacturing LACONIA — Hotter than lava or colder than Mount Washington’s worst, vacuum environment or the pressure of 10,000 feet of ocean depth — it’s not enough to stop products made at Titeflex Aerospace, right here in Laconia.

Titeflex Aerospace provides fluid transfer solutions in polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) flexible, rigid, or flex-rigid hybrid assemblies. It’s a world leader in steel braided and para-aramid flexible hose and produces complex rigid assemblies in various metals. Titeflex assemblies support fuel, hydraulics, lubrication, gases, oxygen, or air and land based turbines, commercial aircraft, military aircraft, and space applications.

While its products may go to extremes, Titeflex Aerospace ensures its employees’ workspace does not. Its production facility is modern, clean and climate-controlled, allowing employees to be at their most productive – and to enjoy it.

And now, Titeflex Aerospace has set its eyes on helping to solve a widespread workforce shortage by joining forces with Lakes Region Community College to aid in the development LRCC’s Advanced Manufacturing curriculum.

Here, we meet Steve Genest, human resource director for Titeflex Aerospace.

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

A: Titeflex designs and manufactures rigid tubing and flexible hose that transfers hydraulic fluid and fuel for military and commercial aerospace applications. Our products have a broad range of capabilities to meet virtually any customer need. Titeflex tubes and hoses perform in pressures ranging from vacuum to 5000 psi and temperatures from -65 degrees F to 2,000 degrees F. Manufacturing of these critical assemblies includes processes such as welding, heat treatment, X-ray and product proprietary crimping.

Every tube or hose shipped from our facility has been pressure checked at twice its rated pressure to ensure product integrity.

Q: What does the future have in store for the Titeflex Aerospace workforce?

A: Titeflex currently employs 340 workers from the local area. We draw our qualified candidates mostly from Belknap County; however, we also have a fair amount of employees commuting from

The Titeflex Aerospace plant in Laconia

southern New Hampshire.

Our skilled employees are hired at Titeflex for jobs in manufacturing engineering, and production jobs such as welding, brazing and X-ray technology.

Titeflex is continually expanding and winning additional aerospace contracts, resulting in continual hiring to meet production demands.

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

A: I have been a member of the Lakes Region Community College Advisory Committee. I find this is a very important part of the recruitment process at Titeflex Aerospace in trying to find qualified candidates to ensure our company’s growth and future. We hope to employ graduates from LRCC in the future at Titeflex Aerospace.

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

A: A lot of potential candidates do not know about all of the manufacturing opportunities in the area. There are many opportunities for highly skilled candidates working on great products in a good, clean work environment.

To learn about advanced manufacturing training and academic programs at Lakes Region Community College, email TAACCCT project coordinator Don Brough at dbrough@ccsnh.edu. To learn more about CCSNH advancements under the TAACCCT grant, e-mail marketing coordinator Desiree Crossley at dcrossley@ccsnh.edu. AMPed NH is sponsored by the U.S. Department of Labor Employment and Training Administration through a $20M TAACCCT grant. CCSNH is an equal opportunity employer.

CASTLE from page one Court and that is not the case. Rather, the Selectboard has announced it will hold a public hearing on the matter at Town Hall on August 14.

Late Monday afternoon, town officials directed an e-mail “blast” relative to the Kimball Castle to subscribers that featured an announcement of the pubic hearing. Attached were legal documents The Daily Sun mistook for papers the town had already filed with the court. Town Administrator Scott Dunn said on Tuesday, they were “draft” legal documents prepared by attorneys for Kimball Castle Properties, LLC that have been submitted to the town for review and consideration.

The draft “cy pres” pleading would have the town, as trustee, tell the court that Kimball Castle Properties, LLC would continue to provide public access to the 220 acre lot but the company should be allowed to tear the castle down because the original terms of the deed restrictions cannot be met.

Cy pres means “next to” and in law it means that this is the next closest solution because original deed restrictions as the typically apply to gifts and charitable donations cannot be met.

According to the draft pleading, the conditions of the deed restrictions of the charitable trust cannot be met because Kimball Castle Properties, LLC was never able to raise the capital needed to restore the historic structure to a restaurant and lounge. The town’s building inspector has condemned the property, which has deteriorated significantly because of weather and vandalism, and ordered the owner to tear it down or install a fence surrounding it to reasonably prevent access.

The first cy pres change to the original charitable donation was made in 1999 when the court allowed the property to be sold to a private party, Historic Inns of New England, LP. The owner of Kimball Castle Properties, LLC is one of the original owners of the limited partnership.

The first change provided the money from the sale be used to maintain most of the property for wildlife observation and recreation trails.

Should the court grant the pleadings in the owner’s suggested language, the area will remain open to wildlife observation, emergency access, and recreation, however it may not be subdivided and will be limited to a single family residence.

In an e-mail sent to The Daily Sun, Dunn said the selectmen, in their official capacity as trustees, have not reviewed the suggested pleading. And, to the best of his knowledge, the office of the Attorney General, Division of Charitable Trusts has not reviewed it either.

— Gail Ober from preceding page “If the story was limited to the disappearance of the girl and the attempt to solve her disappearance it would have been much less interesting.”

“If I were challenged to give a brief answer to ‘What is your book about?’ I would say, ‘The loss of family and the quest for its recovery’ – among the Murdochs, within Dicey’s Mill, and in America as a whole.”

Miller is scheduled to hold the first autographsigning of “So Fade the Lovely” on Saturday, Aug. 10, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Moulton’s Farmstand off Route 25 in Meredith.

The book is available at Innisfree Bookshop, Mill Falls, Meredith; Annie’s Book Stop, 1330 Union Ave., Laconia; Bayswater Books, Senter’s Marketplace, Center Harbor; Meredith Center Store, Meredith Center Road, Meredith; Moulton Farm, Quarry Road, Meredith, and Sun Day’s Salon and Spa, corner of Main Street and Veterans Square, Laconia.

It can also be purchased through Amazon.com Before retiring, Miller was a tenured faculty member at Plymouth State University. He holds a Ph.D. in Psychology from Stanford University and previously served on Meredith’s Board of Selectmen.

County Attorney drops reckless conduct charges against woman who fired 3 shots during police standoff as part of plea deal

By Gail OBer

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA — A woman who county prosecutors had accused of firing three shots at police during a SWAT team standoff in Belmont in 2010 was not, in the end, prosecuted for three felony counts of reckless conduct.

As part of the negotiated plea arrangement, Diamond Morrill, now 23, of Gilford pleaded no contest but was found guilty by Judge Kenneth McHugh of one misdemeanor count of endangering the welfare of a child by firing a loaded weapon while the child was in the house and one misdemeanor count of resisting arrest for refusing to come out of the 672 Union Road home on September 3, 2010.

In separate offenses not related to to Belmont standoff but consolidated as part of a “global resolution,” Morrill pleaded guilty to one felony count of selling drug to an undercover police officer in Gilford, and two felony counts of possession of controlled drugs in Laconia.

For resisting arrest Morrill was sentenced to serve 12 months in the Belknap County House of Corrections with 6 months suspended. She was credited with 180 days of pretrial confinement and was placed on probation for 2 years.

For endangering the welfare of a child, she was sentenced to 12 months with six months suspended in the House of Corrections to be served consecutively to the resisting arrest sentence.

Any portion of the suspended sentences can be brought forward within three years.

For sales of a controlled drug, she was sentenced to 12 months in the House of Correction and credited with 365 days of pretrial confinement. She was fined $500 plus administrative costs — all suspended — and ordered to reimburse the N.H. Narcotics Investigation Unit with $105.

For each of the drug possession charges, Morrill was sentenced to 2-4 years in the New Hamsphire State Prison — all of which is suspended. Those charges can be brought forward within seven years of Monday’s sentencing.

Diamond Morrill (BCSO photo) It took nearly three years for the case to be resolved because a judge had previously ruled Morrill was mentally incapable of understanding the charges or in assisting her attorney in her own defense.

She has been in treatment and yesterday told Judge McHugh she was feeling fine, was taking her prescribed medications, and understood what was happening in the court room.

Morrill was one of three adults who were in the Union Road home when the U.S. Marshals Office, New Hampshire Division went to the home with a warrant to arrest Chris Kelly who was staying with his girlfriend, now wife, Alisha Morgan.

Morgan came out of the house to see what was happening while Kelly and Morrill stayed inside with Morgan’s daughter who was sleeping at the time. Kelly and Morrill refused to leave the house and the Belknap County Special Operations Group was called.

Members of the Belknap County Special Operations Group surrounded the house for what ended up being a seven-hour standoff. Around 3 a.m. three shots came from the home — each narrowly missing three of the police officers who had surrounded the home.

Around 6 a.m. Kelly came out of the house with Morgan’s daughter and police used a N.H. State Police robot to search the house. Morrill, according see next page

EXPLOSION from page 2 have wiped us out,” said Lake County Battalion Chief Chris Croughwell, one of the first responders to the explosions in the town northwest of Orlando.

The cause of the explosion was under investigation by federal and state authorities. Williams said it appeared to begin about 100 yards from the loading dock in an area where some of the plant’s 53,000 20-pound propane canisters are stored on plastic pallets.

Tavares Fire Chief Richard Keith said possible causes of the explosion may be either equipment malfunction or human error. Sabotage was not suspected.

The plant’s two-dozen workers were preparing to go home when the explosions started Monday night, said Williams, who works the third shift. Based on what the forklift operator told him, the explosion was likely caused by a “combination of human error and bad practices, possibly. I don’t want to speculate any further, that’s what the forklift driver was telling me.”

Williams said the forklift driver told him, “’I did what they told me to do, I did what they told me to do, and then this happened.’”

“Something in that area must have triggered it.

I don’t know if he did something or something else triggered it,” Williams said.

Williams said they were able to remotely shut the valves to the three big tanks. But they weren’t able to turn on water sprays meant to keep the tanks cool during a fire. from preceding page to arrest affidavits, was found sleeping in a back bedroom with a handgun within her reach as she slept on the mattress.

In November of 2011, a Belknap County jury found Kelly guilty of resisting arrest after a three day trial. He was sentenced to serve one year in the N.H. State prison. Prior to jury deliberations, Judge James O’Neill refused to allow other felony charges against Kelly to go forward, ruling Belknap County Prosecutor Melissa Guldbrandsen had not presented enough evidence to let a jury decide if he was guilty of criminal restraint and unlawful possession of a weapon.

Assistant Deputy County Attorney Carley Ahern prosecuted Morrill. Atty. Ted Barnes represented her.

My Turn will begin Lakes Region initiative with 25 people between the ages of 16 and 25

By Michael Kitch LACONIA — My Turn, Inc., which has set high school dropouts and unemployed young adults on paths to successful careers for almost three decades, has begun offering its services in Belknap County.

Allison Joseph, director of programs in New Hampshire, said yesterday that the organization was awarded a federal grant under the Workforce Investment Act to extend its programming to the Lakes Region.

My Turn is currently seeking some 25 youths between the ages of 16 and 21 for its inaugural program beginning in the fall. Joseph said that the organization provides educational and employment training aimed at helping young people acquire the credentials and skills to secure stable employment and achieve self-sufficiency.

“We work with a wide range of kids,” Joseph said, “from those who graduated from high school with high honors to others who may be homeless, pregnant or parenting.” Most have encountered obstacles to either continuing their education or finding gainful employment. The program, she said, provides academic and vocational training along with exploration of educational and employment opportunities with the goal of preparing young men and women to pursue careers.

Joseph said that My Turn works with youths for 30 hours a week, tailoring its services to the needs and abilities of the individual. My Turn pays for classes enabling dropouts to earn their GED and works closely with businesses to provide opportunities for job shadowing and internships. “Adult mentoring and hands-on learning are big parts of the program,” Joseph said.

While some of those in the program may be financially independent, she said that My Turn will place others in part-time jobs as well as provide support services like transportation costs and interview outfits as required. For a year after youths leave the program, My Turn follows them to assist with job placement and provide academic support.

Joseph, who started in-school and out-of-school programs for My Turn in Manchester and Nashua, said Laconia was chosen because its profile, with relatively high rates of poverty, dropouts and unemployment, among young people, fit the mission of the organization of serving “the forgotten half.” She said that the program has gotten off to a faster start than usual, noting that both the Belknap Economic Development Council (BEDC) and Lakes Region Chamber of Commerce welcomed the initiative.

Carmen Lorentz, executive director of BEDC, said that MY Turn will complement workforce development initiatives already underway in the region, particularly the “200 by 2010” project begun by the Lakes Region United Way in 2010, which matches students with employers in school-to-work programs.

Since My Turn began as the “Massachusetts Youth Teenage Unemployment Reduction Network” (My Turn) with a school-to-work program at Brockton High School in 1984 has helped more than 22,000 young men and women further their education and embark on careers.

My Turn will operate from offices at the Lakes Region Boys and Girls Club on North Main Street.

Workman picks up first win as Red Sox beat Mariners

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Wednesday, July 31, 2013— Page 11

WIKILEAKS from page 2

BOSTON (AP) — Rookie Brandon Workman struck out nine while picking up his first major league win, allowing one run over six innings as the Boston Red Sox beat the Seattle Mariners 8-2 on Tuesday night.

Jacoby Ellsbury and Dustin Pedroia homered in the second, giving Workman a cushy 5-1 lead that the young right-hander never squandered in just his third start in the big leagues. He allowed six hits, three of them in the sixth when Seattle loaded the bases with one out before Workman (1-1) ended the threat with back-to-back strikeouts.

Pedroia drove in three runs, Shane Victorino had three hits and scored three runs, and Jarrod Saltalamacchia added a two-run homer in the eighth for Boston, which left just three runners on base.

The Red Sox led 2-1 after the first, before breaking broke it open with three more runs. Ellsbury hit a one-out homer into the Mariners’ bullpen, which appeared to be in for a busy night.

It was Boston’s fifth hit off Saunders, who was lucky Ellsbury’s fifth homer of the season was a solo shot. Jose Iglesias led off the inning with a single, but tried to stretch it into a double and got caught in a long rundown.

Victorino followed with a single, then Pedroia hit one out to left for a 5-1 lead.

Saunders allowed one more run in the fourth when Victorino doubled and scored on a single by Pedroia.

Workman’s previous high for strikeouts was five against Oakland in his first career start on July 14,

When the judge was done, Coombs put his hand on Manning’s back and whispered something to him, bringing a slight smile to the soldier’s face.

“We won the battle, now we need to go win the war,” Coombs said later, outside the courtroom.

“Today is a good day, but Bradley is by no means out of the fire.”

Transparency advocates and legal experts had mixed opinions on the implications for the future of leak cases and investigative journalism in the Internet age.

The advocacy group Reporters Without Borders said the verdict was a chilling warning to whistleblowers, “against whom the Obama administration has been waging an unprecedented offensive,” and threatens the future of investigative journalism because intimidated sources might fall quiet.

HOUSE from page one Construction volunteered to serve as general contractor for the project which recently had excavation work donated by JF Kimball Excavation LLC and the foundation poured by Southern NH Concrete.

Quality Insulation then sealed and insulated the foundation and a large crew from Hayward framed and roofed the house.

Glassett said that from now until the house is completed, every Tuesday afternoon will be a work session for volunteers from the Children’s Auction board of directors and members of the association, He said that he’s impressed with the enthusiasm shown for the project and is currently looking for a paving contractor to volunteer to do the access road and parking area.

Dale Squires, executive director of the LRBRA, said that dozens of local firms have pitched in on the project, the most ambitious ever undertaken by the group. ‘’Harris Family Furniture is completely furnishing the home, so that whoever buys it can move in the day they close on the property,’’ said Squires, who said that

Baron’s Major Brands is supplying appliances.

He said that others who have contributed include, Morin Electric, which will wire the home; Pella Windows and Doors; F.W. Webb; Middleton Lumber; New Hampshire Hardwoods; and Gilford Well; along with several builders and craftsmen — Mask Construction, Twin Oaks Construction, Alan Mann Home Improvements, K.A. Clason Fine Woodworking and Custance Brothers Woodworking.

Known as the Children’s Charity House, the home will be marketed for sale by RE/MAX Bayside Realty starting in early fall and will be opened to the public on Columbus Day weekend. ‘’We’re sure that a lot of people are going to be interested in the quality of the materials and work-

manship that are going into this home,’’ said Squires. ‘’It’s going to have the very best in artwork and furniture and be beautifully landscaped,’’ said Squires.

The association purchased the two-acre lot in the Windermere Ridge subdivision at a discounted price and Franklin Savings Bank is financing the purchase of the lot and construction of the house.

Laconia Mayor Michael Seymour, who is a member of the board of directors of the Children’s Auction, said that he is tremendously impressed by the support the local builders group has gained for the project and the generosity of businesses which are making donations or providing materials and furnishings at deep discounts. ‘’It’s really an awesome project,’’ said Seymour.

SHAW’S from page one after the acquisition the firm began closing stores — six in 2006, three in 2007 and four in 2009. In 2010, Shaw’s sold most of its 18 stores in Connecticut and trimmed its payroll by 4 percent. In 2012, Shaw’s laid off 700 employees and Supervalu disclosed it was seeking a buyer.

In January, Cerberus a private equity firm, acquired Shaw’s and Star Market, along with 877 other grocery and drug stores owned by Supervalu for $3.3-billion. By then Shaw’s share of the New England market had fallen from 19-percent to 11-percent between 2006 and 2012 while sales dropped from $5.3-billion to $3.8-billion from 2011 to 2012.

When the transaction closed in March, Sylven issued a statement that no stores would be closed or employees terminated, but added “the management teams for both organizations will determine staffing needs and roles/responsibilities for their respective companies. This process may take several months.”

Meanwhile, in Tilton, where Shaw’s was already competing with both Market Basket and Hannaford, in April Wal-Mart began transforming its store on the west side of Interstate 93 into a WalMart Supercenter by adding 33,000-square-feet, most built to house a grocery department scheduled to open in 2014. Consentino suggested that some of those losing their jobs at Shaw’s might find work at Wal-Mart, which expects to add 84 employees.

With the closures, Shaw’s operates 27 supermarkets in New Hampshire, two in Belknap County just three miles apart in Belmont and Gilford. In Gilford, Hannaford recently opened a new and larger supermarket on Lake Shore Road, directly across the street from Shaw’s, while further down the road Wal-Mart is planning to double the size of its store to create a Wal-Mart Supercenter. from preceding page from untreated or undiagnosed mental illness.

The case now moves to Rockingham County Superior Court, where a grand jury will decide whether to issue indictments.

Larry Carsman Duo at Pitman’s Thursday night LACONIA — The Larry Carsman Duo will perform at Pitman’s Freight Room on Thursday, August 1 at 8 p.m.

Admission $12 and Pitman’s is a BYOB venue.

Master Song Interpreter/Jazz Guitarist Larry Carsman moved to Boston in 1971 to cofound the James Montgomery Band. Larry’s influences span a rich and diverse range of vintage and modern artists including Mose Allison, BB King, Buddy Guy, John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Bruce Springsteen, Carlos Jobim and Gilberto Gil. He selects and arranges great songs from traditional and modern Jazz , blues, classical, Brazilian, folk and soul.

He will be performing with saxophonist, bandleader, master teacher/performer, community activist, and photographer Arni Cheatham, who personifies the description of a local Jazz Hero in every way. Shortly after arriving in Boston from Chicago in 1969, he began staunchly advocating for local music as a founding board member of the Jazz Coalition, and as a stalwart of the Boston scene for more than 40 years, he remains totally engaged today.

During his 12 years as vice president of the Jazz Coalition Arni created, administered and secured funding for JazzEd, which aimed to bridge racial divides by bringing jazz into Boston’s public schools during the desegregation process.

LACONIA — Lake Winnipesaukee is echoing with laughter this summer as Laconia native and funny man Bucky Lewis brings comedy and music back to Blackstone’s Showroom in the Margate Resort on Friday nights throughout the summer.

The “Laughs on the Lake” series, in its second season, moves to Friday nights this season, and brings some of the best Boston based comics to celebrate laughs onstage along with one of New England’s funniest: The Bucky Lewis Show. The shows are scheduled to start at 8 p.m.

“This is the best room in the whole region to see a show” Bucky Lewis states. “We decided to build on the success of last summer’s shows on Thursday nights and move this year to Fridays, bringing in some very funny comedians also to make it a memorable laughter filled experience for locals and tourists alike. It’s also exciting to have Sam Adams and Curious Traveler on board as partners in this summer series.”

Bucky Lewis presents high spirited one-man show with a cast of many dysfunctional characters. “This summer is especially exciting, because I am in the middle of recording my 6th album: ‘Loose Screws’ with some very funny new routines and songs. The album will be coming out in the fall,’’ Lewis says.

Joining Lewis onstage this Friday night August 2 will be Jim Lauletta, who has been headlining clubs, colleges and cruise ships for many years. He has been seen on NBC, HBO, Comedy Central and countless appearances in Las Vegas and Atlantic City Tickets may be purchased on location at the door and by calling the Margate at: 603-524-5210. Tickets are $15 per person, and doors open at 7 p.m. To purchase tickets online and to find out the lineup, visit: http://themargate.com/comedy.html.

6th Annual Circle Triathlon taking place September 1 at the Riveredge Marina and Squam River Landing ASHLAND — The Circle Program has announced open registration for athletes who wish to participate in the Sixth Annual Circle Triathlon on the morning of Sunday, September 1. The Triathlon will take place at the host sponsor site of Riveredge Marina and Squam River Landing.

Echoing the long-standing mission of the nonprofit organization Circle Program, the Circle Triathlon promotes an opportunity for competitors to demonstrate “...the Skills, Courage, and Confidence to Tri.” The Circle Triathlon is a unique athletic event in that it offers three levels of competition, individual or relay style, and families and friends are encouraged to compete together. All are welcome to join the fun with individuals competing in a race on their

own or joining in on a tri-team where each member completes a separate leg of the race.

The Circle Triathlon spans the ages and ability levels with last year’s youngest triathlete at age 5 and the oldest at age 74. The goal of the event is to promote fitness and sportsmanship for all while introducing people to the triathlon sport.

Youth and beginners are encouraged to start with the Rattlesnake Race; intermediate level athletes will try the Mt. Morgan and the more comfortable athletes will tackle the Mt. Chocorua Race. Maps plotting each course, including distances to be traveled, may be found on the Circle Triathlon website.

Visit www.circletriathlon.org to view route maps, participating sponsors, training opportunities and to register.

McClary. Her family donated a wonderful

selection of non-fiction books reflecting the interests of Mrs. McClary and we thank them for their generosity.”

The McClary gift includes National Geographic’s Bird Watcher’s Bible; The Complete Birds of North America; Gardener to Gardener Almanac and Pest-Control Primer for Organic Gardening; The Vegetable Gardener’s Bible; All New Square Foot Gardening Cookbook; The American Horticultural Society Encyclopedia of Perennials, and others dedicated to birding and gardening.

“One of my favorites,” Chance said, “is a comprehensive book of classic farm tractors. The McClary family has provided us with beautiful books that we can enjoy with each season.”

Plymouth Rotary hosting Pemi Clean-Up Day PLYMOUTH — Plymouth Rotary will host Friends of the Pemi Clean-Up Day on Saturday, August 3. Participants will gather at the Campton Beach/Mill area at 8 a.m.

The cleaning of the the Livermore Falls/Holderness beach will start at 9:30 a.m. followed by the clean-up of the Holderness Conservation Land and South Beach area in Plymouth beginning at 10:30 am. Volunteers will re-convene at noon at the Plymouth Rotary Amphitheater on Green Street in Plymouth for a wrap-up session.

The Friends of the Pemi – Livermore Chapter was launched by Plymouth Rotary and several community partners in order to protect the environment along the Pemigewasset River corridor. The scheduled clean-up day is the first in a series of efforts that will promote the vision of the Friends to turn Livermore Falls into a clean, family-friendly park.

The idea is to make the surrounding towns’ shoreline areas and the Pemi River into a safe and attractive destination for recreational use to be enjoyed by residents and tourists alike.

The Plymouth Rotary Club is seeking grant funding that will help defray the cost of materials for signage, gravel and grading, a guard house for an attendant, a kiosk, picnic tables and grills for the Livermore Falls area. The Rotary District 7850 just announced that the Plymouth Rotary has been awarded a $4,000 District Grant to begin the project. A grant of this type requires there be matching funds of $4,000 from the community-at-large individuals and businesses.

For more information about how you might help with this project, or to join the Friends of the Pemi as a member, please email FriendsofthePemi@ gmail.com.

Plymouth Renewable Energy Initiative installing solar thermal collectors on group home August 6 PLYMOUTH — Lakes Region Community Services (LRCS) is working with the Plymouth Area Renewable Energy Initiative (PAREI) to install two solar thermal collectors on one of their residential buildings in Plymouth. This building is home to four individuals who receive LRCS services from a team of full time staff.

The roof mounted solar thermal evacuated tube system will heat the building’s water used for bathing, dishwashing and house cleaning. According to Dave Emond, LRCS Director of Operations, “Over four years ago, we began focusing on how we could improve the energy efficiency of this building. At that time we signed up for the Home Performance with Energy Star Program and more recently tackled additional air sealing and insulating projects.

Now, we are excited to add a solar energy system reducing the building’s energy consumption even further.”

The installation will be conducted as a Community Solar Energy Raiser by the Plymouth Area Renewable Energy Initiative. Prior to the Energy Raiser the solar water storage tank, designed to pre-heat the building’s current water heating system, will be

installed by BTD Mechanical Contracting. PAREI volunteers will congregate on Tuesday, August 6 to complete the solar installation.

Gary Lemay, a long time board member of Lake Region Community Services, has been a member of PAREI for many years and has installed solar energy systems on his own home. Seeing first-hand the positive results of solar energy led Lemay to recommend this project to LRCS. “Having two solar water heating collectors on the roof of our residential facility here in Plymouth will reduce the facilities operating costs and provide an excellent example for the community that solar energy is a viable source of clean reliable energy.”

On the same day the Solar Energy Raiser is taking place, organizers will conduct a solar information session at 1:30 p.m. for the public interested in learning more about heating water or making electricity with solar energy.

Those interested in attending the information session should RSVP to Sandra Jones, Plymouth Area Renewable Energy Initiative, 79 Highland Street Plymouth, NH (603) 536-5030 sandra@plymouthenergy.org

2nd Lakes Region household hazardous waste collection to be held in 4 communities Saturday MEREDITH — This past Saturday about 700 households from around the Lakes Region took advantage of the first collection day of the Lakes Region Household Hazardous Waste collections.

For those who missed last weekend’s collection, the second of these events will be held Saturday morning, August 3 in Bristol, Center Ossipee, Laconia, and Moultonborough from 8:30 a.,. to noon.

Residents and taxpayers of Alexandria, Andover, Belmont, Bridgewater, Bristol, Center Harbor, Effingham, Franklin, Freedom, Gilford, Gilmanton, Hebron, Hill, Holderness, Laconia, Meredith, Moultonborough, New Hampton, Northfield, Ossipee, Sanbornton, Sandwich, Tamworth, and Tilton are eligible and encouraged to bring up to 10 gallons or 50 pounds of their hazardous waste products to any

one of the collection sites.

Hazardous materials that will be accepted include oil-based paints, most household cleaners, transmission fluids, pool chemicals, and lawn and garden products. If unsure, look for the words “poison”, “danger”, “warning”, and “caution”. Items that will not be accepted include: latex paints, propane tanks, tires, ammunition, and alkaline batteries. If you cannot give away your latex paint, allow it to dry out then it may safely go in with the household trash.

Alkaline batteries are now manufactured so as to be less toxic than they used to be and they can be placed in the trash. Check your local transfer station or trash hauler for proper disposal of other items.

There will be a swap table at the Laconia site where you may find reusable paints, stains, and cleaners.

A ground breaking ceremony was held on June 25 at the new Lakeport Campus of the Evangelical Baptist Church of Laconia. After a year of planning with the help of architect Rob Turpin of Misiaszec Turpin Architects of Laconia, construction began. This is phase one of plans to rejuvenate the former Our Lady of the Lakes facility.

Phase one will include a new entryway and the installation of an elevator to make all levels of the facility accessible. Plans are for this phase of construction to be finished in the early fall. Pictured left to right: Rob Turpin, Brad Wallace, Frederick Brierly, Linda Wallace, Jason Durgin, Dan Shaffer, Wilbur Phillips, Randy Bassett, Dave Provan, Jay Moreau, Dale Yasharian, and Jim Kazmaier.

LACONIA — Weirs Times and Cocheco Times Editor. Brendan Smith, will be at the Lake Winnipesaukee Museum on Wednesday, August 7 at 7 p.m., to tell some of the adventures he has had over the years in adjusting to life as a Flatlander from Long Island, New York.

Brendan has been recounting these humorous tales, as well as other topics pertaining to New Hampshire, in his weekly “F.O.O.L in New Hampshire” column that has appeared in the Weirs Times since 1995.

Brendan has recently compiled some of the very best of those early columns in his first book “The Flatlander Chronicles” which will be premiered at the event.

“The book is something I have thought about doing for years,” said Smith. “A lot of folks have been asking me to do it so I finally sat down to the task. It was a lot of fun rereading some of those early stories

By Holiday Mathis

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ll wonder if the task in front of you is worth doing well. If you have a long list and a short amount of time. Speed through each item with a “good enough” attitude. The cumulative effect will be impressive.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). According to the old Jewish proverb, sweet people get eaten up and bitter ones get spat out.

You prefer to stay in between and no one can guess your recipe for success these days.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You don’t have to be in school to learn. You’ll be processing recently gathered facts and connecting them to understand how the world works.

Extra credit: You’ll dream about how it should work, too.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 31). You’ll take relaxation to the “art form” level and your style brings all the right kind of attention. Bonus: You’ll feel young and carefree.

Of course, it’s the hard work in between that makes it possible. August, December and May are moneymaking times. Family bonds are strengthened in September and November. Capricorn and Gemini adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 29, 5, 25 and 19.

TUNDRA

HOROSCOPE ARIES (March 21-April 19). The 10 minutes you usually spend prioritizing your tasks may not be enough today because you have so many tasks of similar importance to you.

Take 30 minutes instead and organize the next three days all at once.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The mean machine of procrastination actively looks for a distraction to keep its cogs whirring. What’s really going on is that there’s something unknown about your important task that you’re afraid of. Get started and fear disappears.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Being interesting isn’t a problem for you because you are so interested in life, and you follow your curiosity, so you always have something to contribute. You’ll lean on this trait today.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Did you hear about the teacher who wore the same outfit for his yearbook photo for 40 years in a row? Similarly, you’ll be sticking to a formula that works and finding success, as well as notoriety in that.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). To improve the way things are in your neighborhood, you first have to improve the people who live there, starting with you. Today is the golden moment for this -- whatever you do will catch on.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You have to bring your best self to the tasks of the day -- there is no other choice -- the challenge of the task demands it. Tonight, you’ll need your peace and rest, so arrange for it.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll wonder if your heartstrings got tied up in your purse strings. Someone yanks on the former and the latter come flying open. Where the need is sincere, you are happy to give.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). If you think twice, you will either come up with something better to say, or something worse, which could also be better, depending on the context of the situation.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Don’t be too proud about which work you take on today. Consider what your sign mate Margaret Cho said: “The incognito of lower class employment is an effective cloak for any dagger one might wish to hide.”

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Wednesday, July 31, 2013— Page 19

––––––– ALMANAC –––––––

WEDNESDAY PRIME TIME

Today is Wednesday, July 31, the 212th day of 2013. There are 153 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On July 31, 1777, the Marquis de Lafayette, a 19-year-old French nobleman, was made a major-general in the American Continental Army.

On this date: In 1556, St. Ignatius of Loyola, founder of the Society of Jesus, died in Rome.

In 1875, the 17th president of the United States, Andrew Johnson, died in Carter County, Tenn., at age 66.

In 1919, Germany’s Weimar (VY’-mahr) Constitution was adopted by the republic’s National Assembly.

In 1930, the radio character “The Shadow” made his debut as narrator of the “Detective Story Hour” on CBS Radio.

In 1933, the radio series “Jack Armstrong, the All-American Boy,” made its debut on CBS radio station WBBM in Chicago.

In 1942, Oxfam International had its beginnings as the Oxford Committee for Famine Relief was founded in England.

In 1953, Sen. Robert A. Taft of Ohio, known as “Mr. Republican,” died in New York at age 63.

In 1971, Apollo 15 crew members David Scott and James Irwin became the first astronauts to use a lunar rover on the surface of the moon.

In 1972, Democratic vice-presidential candidate Thomas Eagleton withdrew from the ticket with George McGovern following disclosures that Eagleton had once undergone psychiatric treatment.

In 1973, Delta Air Lines Flight 723, a DC-9, crashed while trying to land at Boston’s Logan International Airport, killing all 89 people on board.

In 1989, a pro-Iranian group in Lebanon released a grisly videotape showing the body of American hostage William R. Higgins, a Marine lieutenant-colonel, dangling from a rope.

In 1991, President George H.W. Bush and Soviet President Mikhail S. Gorbachev signed the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty in Moscow.

Ten years ago: The Vatican launched a global campaign against gay marriages, warning Catholic politicians that support of same-sex unions was “gravely immoral” and urging non-Catholics to join the offensive.

Five years ago: Three teenagers were shot to death when a gunman opened fire on a group of young people who’d gathered to go swimming in the Menominee River near Niagara, Wis. (The gunman, Scott J. Johnson, was later sentenced to life in prison without parole.) Scientists reported the Phoenix spacecraft had confirmed the presence of frozen water in Martian soil.

One year ago: Three Indian electric grids collapsed in a cascade, cutting power to 620 million people in the world’s biggest blackout. Wrapping up an overseas trip, Republican presidential contender Mitt Romney said in Warsaw that Poland’s economy was a model of small government and free enterprise that other nations should emulate.

At the London games, Gabrielle Douglas, McKayla Maroney, Alexandra Raisman, Kyla Ross and Jordyn Wieber won the first U.S. Olympic team title in women’s gymnastics since 1996. Michael Phelps broke the Olympic medals record with his 19th as the United States romped to a dominating win in the 4 x 200-meter freestyle relay.

Meredith library hosting NH Humane Society welcomes CruCon as event sponsor for August 8 Paws for Cause Comedy Night workshop August 6 on LACONIA — New Hampshire Humane Society announces a new partnership with Crucon Cruise Outlet, who signed on as event sponsor for the animal welfare agency’s annual auction, Paws for a Cause Comedy Night and Auction hosted at Church Landing, Meredith, New Hampshire August 8.

Shelter spokesperson Marylee Gorham said, “Homeless pets in the Lakes Region have a new, powerful advocate; we are thrilled to have Crucon Cruise Outlet, based in Moultonborough, join us as the top sponsor for our biggest fundraising event of the year.”

The event takes place at Church Landing and will allow animal lovers from all over the state, and those who summer in the Lakes Region to show their support for the Laconia based animal adoption center.

Sandy Cleary, President and owner of CruCon is also excited: “We have many impassioned animal lovers on our staff, several of which have adopted pets from the NH Humane Society, including me.

We are proud to contribute to such a dynamic organization.” CruCon, which is one of the top providers for cruises in North America, has donated over $100,000 to local non-profit organizations in the past year alone. Said Cleary, “When we give back to our community, we all win.”

Executive Director, Mary Di Maria said, “each year we hope to raise more than the year before. The last three years have proven we have a winning formula in terms of this event. Yes folks know there is neglect and cruelty in the world, but this event allows them to make a difference in an animal’s life”.

telling family stories

MEREDITH — The Meredith Public Library will be hosting a workshop on Family Stories: How and Why to Remember Them on Tuesday, August 6 at 4 p.m.

Telling personal and family stories is fun – and much more: storytelling connects strangers, strengthens links between generations, and gives children the self-knowledge to carry them through hard times.

Knowledge of family history has even been linked to better teen behavior and mental health.

In this very active and interactive program, storyteller Jo Radner will share foolproof ways to mine memories and to interview relatives for meaningful stories, and participants will practice finding, developing, and telling their own tales. Paid for through a grant from the NH Humanities Council and the Friends of the Meredith Library. Light refreshments will be served.

Streetcar Company holding auditions next week for upcoming production of Wait Until Dark

LACONIA — The Streetcar Company will hold open auditions for Frederick Knott’s Wait Until Dark on Tuesday, August 6 and Wednesday, August 7 at 7 p.m. at the Unitarian Universalist Society at 172 Pleasant St. in Laconia.

The suspense-thriller, to be directed by Streetcar and community theater veteran Rick Morten, revolves around blind Greenwich Village housewife, Susy Hendrix who becomes the target of three con-men searching for the heroin hidden in a doll brought back from Canada by her husband that is taken by Gloria, a little girl in the upstairs apartment.

Most people remember the1967 film starring Audrey Hepburn, Alan Arkin Richard Crenna and Efrem Zimbalist Jr., but the play debuted on Broadway with Lee Remick and Robert Duvall in the lead

roles in 1966.

Morten, along with producer Jennifer Schillinger, will be looking for one young woman, six men and one young girl. Those auditioning will be asked to read from the script. Rehearsals will begin August 25 and the show will be produced at Laconia High School November 1st, 2nd and 3rd.

Production help is also needed and those interested in working on the set, costumes, back stage or in any of the other numerous positions needed to prepare a stage presentation are encouraged to come to auditions or contact the producer at jennschillinger@gmail.com.

Those seeking more information are directed to go to the company website at www.streetcarcompnay. com or contact the producer.

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Wednesday, July 31, 2013— Page 21

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Dear Annie: My husband, “Scott,” and I have been married for three years, and our families keep asking when we’re going to have children. It’s all they talk about.

I just became a licensed physician’s assistant, and Scott was accepted into an Ivy League doctoral program. No congratulations or kudos for either of us. Scott’s friends held a small celebratory barbeque, and we invited his sisters and parents. All they did was talk about how we’ll never have time for kids with such busy careers. At my sister’s bridal shower, my aunt asked whether Scott and I were having fertility problems. I pointed out that I’m only 28, and she laughed and said, “Better hurry up!”

Scott and I have a lot of student debt. We spent a lot of time apart during our studies and are now finally able to make time for each other and start putting away for the future. I mentioned to my parents that we were going on a cruise this summer, and my mother got all excited, assuming we were planning to get pregnant. I was dumbfounded and didn’t respond. She later told her friends that we were “trying,” and several of them contacted me with congratulations.

I do not understand this fascination with my sex life. It’s embarrassing and annoying. We have a big family reunion coming up for Scott’s grandmother’s 80th birthday, and his sisters have told me that if they don’t see a bump, they’ll lock us in the closet and not let us out until I’m pregnant. I no longer want to attend, and Scott feels trapped. I’m at the end of my politeness rope. What should I do? -- Leave Us Alone Dear Leave: You have to be more assertive and less nice to these amazingly rude, intrusive people. Tell them, “We’re sorry if you are disappointed, but the topic of pregnancy is not under discussion. Scott and I will decide when to start

a family. If you persist in bringing up the subject, we will be forced to leave.” Then ignore all angry comments in response and leave if you need to. Every time.

Dear Annie: My sister recently died, and her son and daughter both spoke at the funeral service. Her son said lovely things, but my niece was quite negative, making mean and nasty remarks about her mother in front of family and friends. This was upsetting and hurtful to me.

Is this appropriate? Do children take this opportunity to dump on their parents for things in the past? Because of this, I have decided not to have a memorial service. I’ve told my husband to have me cremated and my ashes dispersed at a beach where we played as children -- no family or friends.

No parent is perfect, but my children were cared for properly, and we helped them even when they were grown. I don’t think they would do this terrible thing, but I’m -- Not Taking Any Chances Dear Not: It is cruel to trash a parent at a funeral service, when the deceased cannot defend herself. It also makes the guests terribly uncomfortable. Your niece obviously harbors a great deal of anger and pain. We hope she will see a therapist and work through this in a more productive manner.

Dear Annie: I had a similar experience to “Want Duct Tape,” whose father-in-law hummed during their drives. I drove my late mother-in-law to her doctor appointments, weekly Bingo games and the beautician. She read every single sign we passed -- street signs, gas station signs, grocery store weekly specials, whatever.

No one could have a conversation. She didn’t want to talk to us, but she made sure we couldn’t talk, either. I finally figured out that it was a passive-aggressive power play. We had to listen to her. The solution? Earplugs. -- Been There and Bought the T-Shirts
