10-4 vote puts county in lucrative Medicare rehab biz BY MICHAEL KITCH

527-9299
LACONIA — The Belknap County Convention last night approved a supplemental appropriation of $200,000 to enable the nursing home to offer rehabilitative services to Medicare patients, but only after another bid to gain the upperhand in its
struggle with the Belknap County Commission over control of the operating budget failed. The commission first broached the subject of the supplemental appropriation in April, explaining that the funds would defray the cost of providing physical, occupational and speech therapy, along with medications,
testing and x-rays, to a limited number of short-stay patients. The services would be provided by independent contractors, not additional staff, and reimbursed by Medicare at 14-percent above cost. Matt Logue, director of the nursing home, projected the program would return some see COUNTY page 8
MacRae blasts selectmen for decision to drop support of Public Access TV BY GAIL OBER
THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
BELMONT — After getting an earful from a small but vocal group of Lakes Region Public Access television supporters, selectmen said last night they would revisit their decision to
withdraw financial support from the not-for-profit entity at their meeting on June 17. Speaking most loudly was town resident Alan MacRae who was one of the pioneers of public access television in the area and who recounted the
four years it took to form what is now known as LPRA television with the 14 original area communities in the late 1990s. He also scolded the board for not making a better effort to find someone to tape their meetings for later broadcast,
which was the primary reason selectmen cited for not paying the town’s $15,067 assessment to LRPA for 2013. They had a volunteer who had a time conflict and told the board she would be unable to tape the see BELMONT page 8

COLEBROOK (AP) — Federal officials plan to meet with health care providers in northern New Hampshire to discuss opening a parttime health clinic for veterans in the Colebrook area. The state’s congressional delegation said Monday that they received a letter from the Department of Veterans Affairs about the plan after they repeatedly emphasized the need for expanded access to veterans health care in the North Country. For now, veterans often travel more than 130 miles to receive treatment in Littleton, Conway or Manchester, and in bad weather, travel time for basic appointments can exceed two and a half hours each way. In a joint statement, Sens. Jeanne Shaheen and Kelly Ayotte, and Reps. Carol Shea-Porter and Annie Kuster, called the announcement an important step forward.

Stage set for N.H. budget fight over expanding Medicaid CONCORD (AP) — Expanding health coverage to an estimated 58,000 poor New Hampshire citizens is perhaps the biggest hurdle to the House and Senate reaching compromise on a state budget before the new fiscal year begins July 1. The Republican-controlled Senate votes Thursday on a $10.7 billion spending plan that does not expand health coverage to the uninsured under the federal Affordable Care Act. Democrats, who control the House,
already are pointing to that single item — which carries little initial cost to the state — as the largest obstacle to reaching compromise. Democratic Gov. Maggie Hassan and Democrats argue the government has kept its promises to fund Medicaid programs over the years, but Republicans say the government is struggling with trillions of dollars of debt and point to its promise to pay more for special education programs than it did as reason not to expand Medicaid.
Senate Republicans propose establishing a study commission instead. “On all the other stuff, we’re not that far apart,” said Senate President Peter Bragdon, a Milford Republican. The two chambers increase funding for services for the mentally ill and disabled. Both also agree on funding levels for higher education. But their differences on Medicaid and taxes reflect starkly different philosophical see MEDICAID page 4
19 trapped workers die in China poultry processing plant fire BEIJING (AP) — Fire swept through a poultry processing plant in northeastern China on Monday, trapping workers inside a slaughterhouse with only a single open exit and killing at least 119 people in one of the country’s worst industrial disasters in years. Survivors described panic as workers, mostly women, struggled through smoke and flames to reach doors that turned out to be locked or blocked.
One worker, 39-year-old Guo Yan, said the emergency exit at her workstation could not be opened and she was knocked to the ground in the crush of workers searching for a way to escape. “I could only crawl desperately forward,” Guo was quoted as saying by the official Xinhua News Agency. “I worked alongside an old lady and a young girl, but I don’t know if they survived or not.” The accident highlights the high human
costs of China’s lax industrial safety standards, which continue to plague workplaces despite recent improvements in the country’s work safety record. It also comes amid growing international concern over factory safety across Asia following the collapse in April of a garment factory in Bangladesh that killed more than 1,100 people. Besides the dead, dozens were injured in the blaze in Jilin province’s Mishazi townsee CHINA FIRE page 8
DETROIT (AP) — Full-size pickups once again dominated U.S. auto sales in May, as small businesses — increasingly confident in the economy — raced to replace the aging pickups they held on to during the recession. Car buyers, too, were lured by low inter-
est rates and Memorial Day sales. Overall, U.S. consumers bought 1.4 million vehicles in May, up 8 percent from the same month a year ago, according to Autodata Corp. The results suggest the auto industry will remain a bright spot in an economy that’s been slowed by weak manufacturing. And
the boost from the industry will help sustain the economy’s steady job growth. Most automakers topped analysts’ expectations last month, with Nissan reporting its highest May sales ever after cutting prices on seven popular models. Chrysler, see AUTO SALES page 7

Fort Hood massacre Why bad news makes the stock market happy suspect to represent himself at trial, use ‘defense of others’ strategy
FORT HOOD, Texas (AP) — The Army psychiatrist charged in the deadly 2009 Fort Hood rampage hinted Monday that he would try to justify the attack, revealing for the first time his defense strategy after a military judge said he could represent himself — and question the soldiers he is accused of shooting — during his upcoming trial. Maj. Nidal Hasan did not elaborate when announcing he would use a “defense of others” strategy, which requires defendants to prove they were protecting other people from imminent danger. Military experts speculated that Hasan may argue he was protecting fellow Muslims in Afghanistan because soldiers were preparing to deploy from the Texas Army post. Hasan also asked the military judge, Col. Tara Osborn, for a three-month delay to prepare his defense. The judge said she would decide that issue Tuesday, a day before jury selection was scheduled to begin. Retired Staff Sgt. Alonzo Lunsford, who was shot seven times during the rampage in November 2009, said Monday he was upset and angry the judge was allowing Hasan the ability to question the wounded soldiers. Lunsford said he expects Hasan to try to intimidate them through mind games. “It’s a battle of wits, and he’s going to lose,” said Lunsford, who lost most of the sight in his left eye in the attack. “I was there. I saw what this man did. I’m living proof of what he did, but I survived. ... I’m not going to show any fear.” After questioning Hasan for about an hour, Osborn ruled that he was mentally competent to represent himself and understood “the disadvantage of selfrepresentation.” She repeatedly urged Hasan to reconsider, noting that he would be held to the same standards as all attorneys regarding courtroom rules and military law and be going up against a prosecutor with more than 20 years of experience. She also said he must be courteous to witnesses and not get personal with them. After the judge asked once again if he understood that representing himself was not “a good idea,” Hasan replied: “You’ve made that quite clear.” Hasan, who was set to deploy with some of the troops killed that day, is charged with 13 counts of premeditated murder and 32 counts of attempted premeditated murder. If convicted, the 42-year-old faces the death penalty or life without parole. Hasan’s attorneys will remain on the case but only if he asks for their help, the judge said. Military experts not involved in the case speculated that Hasan, an American-born Muslim, likely will try to show that he was trying to defend Muslims against U.S. troops in a war that he believes is illegal and immoral. Government documents show that Hasan, in speaking with some colleagues, expressed support for Osama bin Laden and said the U.S. was at war with Islam. In some emails to a radical Muslim cleric, Hasan indicated that he supported terrorists and was intrigued with the idea of U.S. soldiers killing comrades in the name of Islam. “Even if he feels the U.S. is in an unjustified war, this defendant is not going to be able to show a threat was immediate because these soldiers were on U.S. soil and unarmed,” said Jeff Addicott, director of the Center for Terrorism Law at St. Mary’s University in San Antonio. Reed Rubinstein, who is representing about 150 Fort Hood victims and their families in a lawsuit alleging negligence by the government, said the wounded soldiers “never had any doubt about why he shot them.” But if Hasan tries to use the trial as a platform for his beliefs, “he’s making a mockery of the judicial system,” Rubinstein said. Hasan in 2011 cut ties with his previous lead attorney, John Galligan, a civilian who is a former military judge. Galligan said recently that he didn’t know why his former client wanted to represent himself.
NEW YORK (AP) — For now, bad news is good for the stock market. Investors judged that the latest weak economic reports will make it more likely that the Federal Reserve will continue to stimulate the economy and support a rally on Wall Street. On Monday, a measure of U.S. manufacturing fell in May to its lowest level since June 2009 as overseas economies slumped and weak business spending reduced new orders to factories. That helped convince investors that the Fed will hold off from slowing down its $85 billion bond-buying program. Speculation that the central bank was set to ease that stimulus, a major support for this year’s rally in stocks, has caused trading to become volatile in the last two weeks. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index fell in the morning after the manufacturing report was published at 10 a.m. It moved between gains and losses for much of the day, then climbed decisively in the last hour of trading. The “good news is bad news” interpretation of economic reports may support stocks in the short term, but at the end of the day the economy has to keep improving for stocks to reach new highs, said Alec Young, a global equity strategist at S&P Capital IQ. “This was a big miss on the ISM report,” said Young. “Regardless of what it means for the Fed, ultimately you’re buying a stream of earnings and you want to see the economy doing well.” Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta President Dennis Lockhart also helped allay investors’ concerns that the central bank was poised to stop the stimulus. He told
Bloomberg Television Monday in an interview that Fed officials remain committed to the stimulus program. The S&P 500 index climbed 9.68 points to 1,640.42, up 0.6 percent. The Dow Jones industrial average rose 138.46 points to 15,254.03, a gain of 0.9 percent. The Dow got a boost from Merck, which rose 4 percent. The Nasdaq composite, which is heavily weighted with technology stocks, rose 9.45 points to 3,465.37, an increase of 0.3 percent. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note ended the day barley changed from late Friday at 2.13 percent. The yield climbed as high as 2.17 percent in early trading, then fell as low as 2.09 percent after the manufacturing report was released. As Treasury yields fell, rich dividend-paying stocks like electric utilities and phone companies moved higher. Those sectors, so-called defensive stocks, had been investor favorites in the first quarter. They declined in May as bond yields rose. Despite the advance Monday, signs are emerging that this year’s rally may be starting to falter. The S&P 500 index closed higher for a seventh straight month in May, but the index also logged its first back-to-back weekly declines since November. On Friday the Dow plunged 208 points, its worst drop in six weeks. The Dow is still up 16.4 percent this year, and the S&P 500 is 15 percent higher. Stocks have surged as companies reported record earnings and on optimism that the housing market is recovering and hiring is improving.

Garage door opener starts small but dangerous fire at Belmont Police Station BELMONT — It was a close call for the Police Department yesterday morning when the motor on the sallyport overhead door burned out and started a small fire. Lt. Rich Mann said he was in his office when he smelled smoke coming from the garage area, which is toward the back of the building. Police Officers Joel Pickowicz and Evan Boulanger took a fire extinguisher and were able to extinguish the fire, which had begun to spread to the ceiling, while the Fire Department was on the way. Mann said the building was evacuated per department policy and a fire
safety drill is reviewed and practiced annually. He said the building was evacuated temporarily after Boulanger and Pickowicz extinguished the blaze. He said the door was open when the fire started and the department was fortunate officers noticed the fire when they did. He said the department installed a garage door opener about three years ago when they learned the old one was unable to lift the door, which he described as very heavy. While awaiting a replacement motor Mann said the door can be manually operated and the building is secure. — Gail Ober
MEDICAID from page 2 approaches. New Hampshire Republicans have resisted President Barack Obama’s signature health care overhaul, and last session passed a law barring the state from establishing a health insurance exchange where people can shop for coverage. Hassan’s office believes it needs legislative approval to expand Medicaid. House Speaker Terie Norelli, a Portsmouth Democrat, said Monday her legal counsel is researching whether Hassan can act unilaterally.
Hassan and the House included funding to implement the expansion so New Hampshire health care providers would share an estimated $2.5 billion over seven years at an estimated $85 million state cost. Currently, New Hampshire’s Medicaid program covers low-income children, parents with children, pregnant women, elders and people with disabilities. The expansion would add anyone under age 65 who earns up to 138 percent of federal poverty guidelines, which is about $15,000 for a see next page

Tilton-Northfield Fire will have its first female commissioner; Tilton selectmen think they’re being left out of fire department decisions affecting east part of town By Michael Kitch
TILTON-NORTHFIELD — The Tilfton-Northfield Fire Commission will pass a milestone tomorrow night when it fills the vacancy left by the resignation of longtime commissioner Tom Gallant. His successor will be the first woman to serve on the commission. When the remaining commissioners, Pat Clark of Tilton and Paul Auger of Northfield, solicited applications for the position four women responded — Jane Alden, Judy Tilton and Les Dolecal, all of Tilton, and Gretchen Wilder of Northfield. Alden, who serves as vice-chair of the Tilton Planning Board and sit on the Budget Committee challenged the re-election of Clark, then the incumbent chairman of the commission, in March, but fell short by a margin of 468 to 231. Tilton is a well-known local realtor. Dolecal served as Deputy Commissioner of the New Hampshire Department of Corrections and most recently as Assistant Superintendent of the Merrimack County Depart-
ment of Corrections. Wilder, who has followed the operations of the district closely for some time, was an outspoken critic of proposals to construct a public safety building and in 2010 served on the Northfield Fire Services Committee which recommended dissolving the district, a proposal voters soundly rejected by a margin of more than three-to-one. Meanwhile, the commission finds itself at odds with the Tilton Selectboard over participation in discussions with the selectmen of Belmont and Sanbornton about increased cooperation among the three towns, including the future of the Winnisquam Fire Station. When the Sanbornton selectmen invited the commission to a meeting last week, Clark and Auger declined, explaining that they were focusing their time on filling the vacant board seat. However, in their letter they welcomed the opportunity to meet “on matters that concern fire and EMS (Emergency Medical Services) . . . in particular at exploring the possibility of reopening the Winnisquam Fire
Station.” At the same time, they made it plain that they expected “only the governing bodies for fire and EMS services among the three entities, Belmont Selectmen, Sanbornton Selectmen, and Tilton-Northfield Fire & EMS Commissioners, would be at the table for initial discussions.” That rankled the Tilton selectmen. Writing the commissioners, the selectmen expressed appreciation for their willingness to discuss providing fire protection and EMS services for the Winnisquam area, but took issue with being excluded from the discussions. “We strongly object to Mr. Clark’s repeated assertions that the Tilton Selectmen should be excluded from participating in discussions concerning the needs of our citizens in East Tilton,” they wrote. The board reminded the commissioners that the town funded the Winnisquam Fire Department “for many years before the (Tilton-Northfield Fire) District did” and said “the same applies now.” Acknowledging that the
commissioners are responsible for the district as a whole, the selectmen insisted that they are equally bound to weigh the needs of all residents, including those of east Tilton. The selectmen stressed that their participation “should in no way” be taken as diminution or preemption of the commissioner’s authority while insisting that they “are the ones that are responsible for the taxpayers in the Town of Tilton and if there are decisions being made concerning the Town of Tilton’s best interests, we should be a part of those conversations regarding the public safety of the residents of East Tilton.” Pat Consentino, who chairs the Selectboard, said yesterday that she believes the Northfield selectmen should also be party to the discussions. “It’s not just about the Winnisquam station,” she said. “There are also parts of Northfield that are underserved by the fire district. And it’s not only about fire and EMS services, but about regionalization, about pooling our resources.”
from preceding page single adult. New Hampshire could refuse or postpone a decision, but there are benefits for states that choose to expand Medicaid now. The U.S. government will pick up the entire cost in the first three years and 90 percent over the long haul. Senate Democratic Leader Sylvia Larsen of Concord said Democrats also don’t like a GOP budget provi-
sion requiring the governor to cut $50 million in personnel and benefit costs. Hassan spokesman Marc Goldberg said between 400 and 700 people could be laid off. The current state budget required former Gov. John Lynch to save $50 million in labor costs. He negotiated contracts with the state’s three labor unions to avoid laying off 500 workers. The contracts contained no raises and increased workers’ share of health
care costs. In 2009, lawmakers approved a budget that also required Lynch to cut labor costs by $25 million. Lynch proposed a furlough plan to minimize layoffs, but the union rejected it and roughly 200 people lost their jobs. Bragdon argues whether there are layoffs will depend on Hassan’s ability to manage spending. But Larsen sees it as Republicans making a choice not to accept a House-
proposed 20-cent increase in the cigarette tax to raise $40 million, or to accept delaying business tax breaks passed last session that have never been implemented. That was worth another $13 million toward program costs, she said. “There are choices here,” she said. “We’re not going to put tax increases in this budget,” responded Senate Finance Chairman Chuck Morse, R-Salem.

Are India’s child brides America’s problem? The practice of marrying young girls to older men persists in Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa and elsewhere. It is a concern. But need it be America’s concern and, more to the point, America’s business to stop? The answer is yes, according to a new Council on Foreign Relations report. Ending child marriage, author Rachel B. Vogelstein states, “is a strategic imperative that will further critical U.S. foreign policy interests.” Is it? Do we need a global crusade to end a custom already in decline and generally limited to impoverished rural areas? Perhaps it is more in our interests to stay out of the business of telling foreigners how they should regulate marriage. Americans have a long history of trying to make everyone just like us. In the 1820s, New England missionaries sought to save Hawaiian souls by banning the hula. In the 2000s, America embarked on war to bestow democracy’s blessings on Iraq. These ventures, usually done in the name of the national interest, rarely work out as planned. The reauthorized Violence Against Women Act orders the secretary of state to “establish and implement a multi-year, multisectoral strategy to prevent child marriage” and so on. Here we go. Now Vogelstein makes some compelling arguments. Child marriage slows a country’s economic development by stunting girls’ education. There’s the serious question of human rights: Girls should have the power to direct their own future. But then there’s her iffier claim that the “success of U.S. efforts to foster development, prosperity and stability will grow if this persistent practice comes to an end.” Even if valid, achieving these good results should be things the countries themselves want. Which brings us to India. India is home to nearly half the world’s child brides, a product of the tradition’s roots in South Asia and India’s huge population. India is also a surging world economic power, full of highly educated women, some of whom
run the country. In 2006, it passed a Prohibition of Child Marriage Act. And the incidence of child marriage there has already fallen sharply from 26 percent in 1999 to 18 percent in 2011. Recent hideous rape cases have brought massive protests to India’s streets. The people there seem perfectly capable of addressing aspects of their culture they don’t like. Despite the progress, Vogelstein complains that “some Indian laws continue to establish the age of majority at 14,” rather than at 18. So, should the State Department be lecturing other countries on how to define a minor? Let’s turn the mirror around, shall we? Let’s count the number of young American teens — some age 15 and under — now having babies, and without the marriage part. Last month, a 5-year-old boy in Kentucky shot and killed his 2-year-old sister with a rifle given him as a present. Putting real guns in the hands of little kids is apparently common in some parts of this land. “It’s a normal way of life, and it’s not just in Kentucky, it’s rural America,” a Cumberland County judge explained to a baffled world media. That same week, an 8-year-old in Alaska killed his 5-year-old sister with a gun. Did America’s leaders launch a campaign to change the custom of arming children? It did not, as much as it should have. The point is, the United States should carefully pick and choose the moral imperatives it wants to push on others. We’re rather advanced on dignity-of-women issues. But where’s the urgency for us to “fix” old cultures not our own? Let others catch up. Changing their ways on child marriage may benefit them. It’s not for us to tell them to. (A member of the Providence Journal editorial board, Froma Harrop writes a nationally syndicated column from that city. She has written for such diverse publications as The New York Times, Harper’s Bazaar and Institutional Investor.)
Mail carrier food drive came when need was at all-time high To the editor, It’s heartwarming to see our community pull together to support local food pantries. This year’s mail carriers food drive comes at a time when needs are at an all time high while donations have not been able to keep up. Therefore, the willingness of postal workers to donate their time and effort, and the generosity of the area residents is much appreciated. If anyone missed the drive and
would like to contribute non-perishable food items, St. Vincent’s is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. If those that are able continue to donate, we can continue to help local families.

LETTERS First Amendment protects free speech regardless of its source To the editor, As Ronald Reagan said to Jimmie Carter in their 1980 presidential debate; “There you go again” to highlight Carter’s misrepresentations (some would say lies) concerning Reagan’s policy positions and political record. Back in April, I responded to a letter criticizing the U. S. Supreme Court decision in Citizens United, which confirmed a 35 year old precedent that the inherent worth of speech to inform the public does not depend on the identity of the speaker, whether corporation, union, association or individual. Since that time there have been a series of letters in The Sun advocating a U.S. Constitutional Amendment to limit the free speech rights of corporations, including passing a symbolic act in the N.H. Legislature urging such a Constitutional Amendment. Mr. Larry Spencer’s letter is the latest diatribe in this area, because “if we continue to give corporations the same rights as people have, it will in the long run be the downfall of our democracy.” Again, I suspect it is the content of the corporate political speech that Mr. Spencer doesn’t like, but I bet it would be okay with him if a union used its members’ dues to lobby politicians and influence legislation. As I said previously: The foundation of the First Amendment is that it protects and promotes the free exchange of ideas regardless of source and however personally disagreeable one may find the content of the speech. Our founding fathers fought the Revolutionary War to bring freedom to
America from British rule. They knew first hand about “unalienable rights” endowed by their Creator to which British rule was “destructive.” The founding fathers distrusted monarchy and arbitrary rule and they were suspicious of government power. Accordingly, in the Constitution, they created a system of checks and balances between the legislative, executive and judicial branches of government to “secure these rights” by “deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.” The First Amendment is the cornerstone of securing and maintaining those rights. Not only does it protect the free exercise of religion, but it prohibits the abridgement of freedom of speech and the press. Where does the First Amendment say that only certain groups or individuals have free speech rights regarding political speech? Moreover, one only need look at the abuse of power by the IRS in investigating conservative organizations seeking tax exempt status, and the FBI in seizing phone records of the Associated Press and a Fox News reporter and his parents without proper notification and process, to realize the wisdom of the founding fathers and the confirmation of the Supreme Court in the Citizens United case. If Mr. Spencer and others had their way, The AP and organizations like American Crossroads would not have the right to criticize government at any level and could be investigated, harassed or possibly fined merely for the content of their “offending” political speech. “There you go again.” Richard R. Gerken Meredith
Charged with drug crime, yet released to care for elderly mother? To the editor, I was appalled to read in Saturday’s Laconia Sun that Steven Simoneau, who was arrested on Thursday for manufacturing methamphetamine, was released from jail to care for his “elderly, unwell mother”. So this is how we care for and protect our vulnerable senior citizens? This same scenario would never happen if a child was involved — “unwell” or not! I have never heard of a person who has been arrested on a drug charge being released from jail to care for his or her children. It would not happen and it
should not happen. Children need to be protected. Nor should it happen to this woman, who by all accounts needs to be cared for and protected. Are there no safeguards in place to ensure her well-being and allow him to remain in jail, where he should be? Was this the best plan that our public officials could come up with? Please! There must be a better way! If you are as concerned about this as I am, please contact your local legislator. Nancy Bacon Laconia

LETTERS The U.N. stands poised to collect your guns, with Obama’s help To the editor, To the Live Free or Die State: You lived free and now you’re dead. Do you know what killed you? It was U.N. Agenda 21? And you don’t even know what it is. In simple words that all can understand, it’s an action plan implemented by The U.N. worldwide to inventory and control all land, all water, all minerals, all plants, all animals, all construction, all means of production, all energy (note: windmills), all education, all information, and all human beings in the world and George H Bush signed on to it. That in its self should have set off the alarm bells. Well, one Democrat got it right and she aligned with the 912 Party in a movement called Democrats Against U.N. Agenda 21? Look her up on the Internet: “Inventory and Control Behind the Green Mask” by Rosa Koire. SUSTAINABILITY is the key word that drives the U.N. Agenda 21. Other key words are Local Governments for Sustainability and Land Use Policies. One-planet communities are being implemented in every town,county, state and nation in the world and will be changing their land and water use (Senate Bill 11), planning codes and
government policies so as to align themselves with (The New World Order) which is (One World Government) and that will usurp the U.S. government, The Constitution, The Bill of Right sand American’s individualism. Under U.N. Agenda 21 your children are now being brainwashed in your schools by programed teachers instructing them using, Common Core Curriculum (which teaches communism), outcome based education, community protocol, comprehensive planning, and the list goes on and on? The three “E”s of Sustainability are Equity, Economy and Environment. It’s not just a coincidence the windmills were pushed down your throat or your water rights were taken away from you. Senate Bill 11 is all part of the U.N. telling us what we can and cannot do or have in our country. On Tuesday, Obama signs the U.N. Small Arms Treaty and he doesn’t need the authorizing of Congress. The U.N. stands poised to collect your guns with the help of Obama’s private army (Homeland Security). New Hampshire was a free state until the idiots in the Statehouse opted for UN Agenda 21 and sold out the USA. George Dengel Hebron
‘Eat Out’ week raised enough to feed 22 children this summer To the editor, On behalf of the Advisory Board and all the volunteers of Got Lunch! Laconia, we would like to sincerely thank the nine restaurants for participating and supporting our 3rd Annual Eat Out for Got Lunch! Laconia fund raiser. It was a great week of fun, food and friends while raising funds and awareness for the GOT LUNCH! Laconia program. We were able to raise $2,446 from the donations given by T-Bones/Cactus Jack’s, Fratello’s, Village Bakery, Burrito Me, Hector’s, Lyons’ Den, Patrick’s Pub & Eatery, Tavern 27 and Brick Front! Our estimated cost for a summer of healthy lunches is $110 per child, so
this donation will provide lunches for 22 of our city’s children. We also want to thank all the wonderful members of our community that went out to eat lunch and/ or dinner at one of these superb restaurants to support a very important cause to help end childhood hunger in our city. Please visit our website www.gotlunchlaconia.com to learn more about this fabulous program and see how you can get involved or make a donation. We also have our own Facebook site so go on and “like” us. Linda Tunnicliffe For the Advisory Board Got Lunch! Laconia
Bob Dole had it right – the Republican Party is out to lunch To the editor, I want to reply briefly to letter written by Ron Tricca on May 30: I have said in the past and I’ll say it one more time. The Republican Party is history. You lost in the last election. You will lose the next one. All signs the country is on the comeback with not one vote from the party of NO showing assistance of any kind. Your letter answers none of my questions — some where you got twisted up. I guess you know now what Senator Bob Dole said on Sunday was correct. The GOP party is out to lunch. Your letter has been written before by others using the same argument and proven wrong by many fine liberal Democrats.I suggest you go back a few months and read past issues of letters to editor. The WMDs that you refer to
were given to Saddam Hussein in the 1980s by the Reagan administration during Iraq Iran war. (Reference U.S. involvement in Iran Iraq War 1980.) The question you didn’t answer was WHY an American civilian in harm’s way is murdered and a soldier is killed? You are right on many hard working folks know how to type. I should have said that growing up in a small Vermont town (40s 50s) typing was not something most boys took up. I served 20 years in U.S. army, drove truck cross country for 20 years, worked local for eight years, retired in 2005 and not once in my life was I held back because of my inability to type. Today it is needed to communicate. Henry Osmer Hill
2 commercial-grade lawnmowers stolen from Union Cemetery garage LACONIA — Thieves made off with about $20,000 in brand-new lawn equipment sometime between Sunday evening and Monday morning from the Union Cemetery storage building. Board members Carroll Stafford and John Perley said the thieves stole two Toro commercial-grade lawnmowers that were just purchased by the cemetery in September of 2012. Along with the two mowers, three trimmers, a compressor, a generator and a number of smaller items. The most significant loss, said Stafford and Perley are the two commercial mowers that nearly no hours on them. “We bought them last year and put them away for the winter,” Perley said. “We can’t mow the cemetery and we just fertilized,” said Stafford, noting that last week a subcontractor fertil-
ized, limed, and applied grub control materials to the cemetery lawns. This is the third major incident police have investigated at the cemetery in the past year. In 2012, a vandal knocked over some of the older head stones for no seemingly apparent reason and last fall police arrested a homeless man who had set up camp in the woods and armed himself with a shotgun. The three incidents appear unrelated. Anyone with any information is asked to call the Laconia Police Department at 524-5252 or the Greater Laconia Crime Line at 5241717. Anonymous tips can also be left at on the Laconia Police Department Website at www.laconiapd.org. — Gail Ober
Meredith planners OK construction of 2,000-square-foot building on Northview MEREDITH — The Planning Board last week approved the construction of one commercial building and deferred its decision on a proposal to build another pending a visit to the site. The board approved the proposal of Brian Davis of Planet Green, LLC, a landscaping firm that also designs and installs solar energy systems, to construct a 40-foot by 50-foot building on a 0.71-acre lot on the north side of Northview Drive. Davis said that the project will bring his operations under one roof. Currently the firm maintains an office on Daniel Webster Highway (Rte. 3) near the fire station and a house on the lot on Route 25 where Rite-Aid is building a drugstore. Davis said that he intends to purchase the lot on Northview Drive from Justin van Etten, the owner of Stewart’s Ambulance Service, doing business as Winnipiseogee Investment Property, LLC. According to the tax records, van Etten purchased the property in 2007 for $167,500. The lot AUTO SALES from page 2 Ford, Honda and Toyota also reported increases. Only Volkswagen’s sales were down from last May. Automakers sold 173,972 full-size pickups in May, the highest total since a year-end rush last December, according to Ward’s AutoInfoBank. Sales of Ford’s F-Series pickup, which is the country’s best-selling vehicle, rose 31 percent to a six-year high of 71,604. General Motors and Chrysler also posted full-size truck sales gains of more than 20 percent. Those sales have reverberated in the job market. Ford said in early May that it’s adding 2,000 workers to the Missouri plant that makes the F-150. From January through April, automakers and parts companies hired 14,600 workers, and the Center for Automotive Research expects them to add 35,000 over the full year. Car dealers are also hiring, with the average number of employees rising from 53 to 55 last year, said the National Auto Dealers Association.
is currently assessed at $128,600. Davis said he hoped to begin construction in time to button up the building before winter, but has not set a specific timetable. He emphasized that the building, which will house and office and space for equipment and materials, will be “green,” oriented to make optimal use of solar panels. “The carbon footprint will be minuscule,” he said. Planning Director Angela LaBrecque said that the board chose to continue Perry Taylor’s proposal to construct a small — 14-foot by 16-foot — building on the 0.90-acre lot at 473 Daniel Webster Highway, north of the police station, where he makes his home. She said that Taylor, who farms. plans to sell fresh produce on the site. The board, she continued, intends to walk the property whelk officials of the New Hampshire Department of Transportation will also review and comment on the plans. — Michael Kitch More are expected to be hired this year. The Federal Reserve’s low interest rate policies have helped nurture sales by keeping loan rates low. A 48-month new-car loan now averages 2.92 percent, according to Bankrate. com. And despite the weak manufacturing numbers, other bright spots — like home building and oil and gas drilling — are fueling the auto sales boom. Home construction rose 12 percent in the first three months of this year, and builders — along with plumbers, landscapers and painters — need work vehicles. GM said sales of vans to small commercial buyers, or those with fleets of one to four vehicles, rose 17 percent in May. Automakers are also selling more trucks in Texas, the Dakotas, Montana and elsewhere thanks to increased drilling. For the month ending May 24, U.S. oil production was up 18 percent to 7.3 million barrels per day, according to the Energy Department.

CHINA FIRE from page 2 ship, which appeared to have been sparked by three early morning explosions, Xinhua said. The provincial fire department attributed the blasts to an ammonia leak. The chemical is kept pressurized as part of the cooling system in meat processing plants. It was one of China’s worst recent industrial disasters, with the death toll the highest since a September 2008 mining cave-in that claimed 281 lives. State broadcaster CCTV quoted workers as saying the fire broke out during a shift change when about 350 workers were at the plant, owned by Jilin Baoyuanfeng Poultry Co. Some employees raised the alarm shortly after the shift began at 6 a.m., and then the lights went out, causing panic as workers scrambled to find an exit, 44-year-old Wang Fengya told Xinhua. “When I finally ran out and looked back at the plant, I saw high flames,” she said. The fire broke out in a factory building where chickens were being dismembered, and spread rapidly, with industrial boilers exploding, the Southern Metropolis Daily reported on its microblog. Only a side door to the building was open with the rest of the exits locked, the newspaper said. It quoted an unidentified worker as saying the fire engulfed the building in three minutes, leaving too little time for many to flee. The disaster killed 119 people, and 54 people were being treated in hospitals, the provincial government said on its microblog. Most of the injured were being treated for inhalation of toxic gases, such as ammonia, while others had burns. It wasn’t immediately clear if the workers were local residents or migrants from other areas. A provincial government media official, who refused to give his name, said he expected the death toll to rise as more bodies were recovered from the charred building. By noon, the fire had been mostly extinguished by some 500 firefighters, and bodies were being recovered
from the charred buildings. CCTV footage showed dark smoke billowing from the prefabricated cement structures topped with corrugated iron roofs. Chinese President Xi Jinping and other top leaders ordered that no effort be spared to rescue and treat survivors, as well as to investigate the cause of the disaster. It was the third major industrial blaze to be reported in China in the past four days. The two earlier fires were an oil tank explosion in Liaoning province that caused another oil tank to catch fire, killing two, and a blaze in a large granary in Heilongjiang province that wiped out 1,000 tons of grain. Many of China’s factories have sprung up in recent decades to drive the country’s rapid economic growth, and accidents and chemical spills are common, often blamed on lax enforcement of safety rules and poor worker training. The government has tightened checks on factories and mines to improve compliance with safety requirements, and deaths from workplace accidents fell nearly 5 percent last year from the previous year, according to Yang Dongliang, head of the State Administration of Work Safety. Even in China’s notoriously deadly coal mines, the death toll fell by more than 30 percent last year because of stricter management. Jason Yan, technical director in Beijing of the U.S. Grains Council, said safety considerations usually take a back seat in China to features designed to maximize production and energy efficiency. “I’m sure they consider some aspects of safety design. However, I think safety ... is not the first priority in their design plan,” Yan said. The poultry plant is one of several in the area where chickens are slaughtered and then quickly cut up into pieces and shipped to market. The process takes place in near-freezing conditions and plants are usually built with large amounts of flammable foam insulation to maintain a constant temperature.
COUNTY from page one $414,000 in revenue, representing net revenues of $200,000, which would offset property taxes. Beds that are currently empty would be used. Logue presented the proposal to the convention at a public hearing last month, but a procedural flaw in posting the meeting, required that both the hearing and vote be rescheduled to last night. When Rep. David Huot (D-Laconia) moved to approve the request, Rep. Colette Worsman (R-Meredith), who chairs the convention, linked the request to the dispute over the budget, which has dogged relations between the convention and commission since December. From the outset of the budget process, the convention claimed authority to add or delete, raise or lower specific line items and insisted the commission cannot shuffle funds from one line to another without its approval. The commissioners, on the other hand, counter that the authority of the convention is limited to the appropriations for particular departments, within which they can allocate funds to different line items in the course of managing the day-to-day operations of the county. The issue came to the boil when the commissioners reallocated money within department budgets to fund employee benefits that the convention stripped from the budget. Worsman raised the issue by asking if the convention approved the supplemental appropriation, would the $200,000 be added to the line item budget adopted by the convention or to the budget being administered by the commission. Commissioner John Thomas of Belmont, the chairman, replied that the funds would be added to the commission’s budget. Rep. Frank Tilton (R-Laconia) went a step further by proposing to reduce the supplemental appropriation by $50,000, from $200,000 to $150,000. He explained that by adjusting the budget adopted by the convention, the commissioners had decreased or eliminated appropriations amounting to $179,609. “There is plenty of money in the budget that we appropriated,” he said, adding that as chairman of the Executive Committee of the convention he would schedule a meeting to approve any transfers commissioners recommended to fund the program at the nursing home.
Tilton reminded the commissioners that in 2012 they requested a supplemental appropriation of $160,000, but spent only 92.5 percent of the funds appropriated. “I’m still smarting from last year,” he said. “The $160,000 could have come out of existing appropriations. I still remember that.” Commissioner Ed Philpot acknowledged that the commission “moved money around to meet contractual obligations to county employees. We have a disagreement about that,” he continued, but it is inaccurate to say there $50,000 floating around out there.” He said that if the supplemental appropriation was reduced, the program would not raise the projected the revenue. Noting that members of the convention represent the taxpayers, Worsman said “you have to show that you will not take the money and put it wherever you like. That’s what we’re wrestling with.” “We represent the same taxpayers you represent,” Philpot shot back. He said that the commissioners have presented a formal proposal, specifying the line items to which the funds will be applied and projecting the revenues they would generate. Rep. Ian Raymond (D-Sanbornton) urged the convention to separate the request from the other outstanding issues between the convention and commission. Growing impatient, Thomas told the convention “do what you have to do so we can get on with our work.” Tilton’s motion was put to the vote and failed as the 14 members present divided evenly. Six Republicans — Reps. Richard Burchell of Gilmanton, Jane Cormier of Alton, Michael Sylvia of Belmont, and Bob Greemore, Herb Vadney and Worsman of Meredith — joined Tilton in favor. Three Republicans — Don Flanders of Laconia, Stephen Holmes of Alton and Chuck Fink of Belmont — voted with the four Democrats — Lisa DiMartino, Ruth Gulick of New Hampton, Huot and Raymond — against. The original motion to approve the supplemental appropriation as presented carried by a vote of 10 to four, Worsman, Burchell, Cormier and Sylvia in opposition. Rep. Beth Arsenault (D-Laconia), Bob Luther (R-Laconia), Dennis Fields (R-Sanbornton), and Guy Comtois (R-Barnstead) were absent.
BELMONT from page one meetings. Representing Belmont, MacRae chaired the LRPA board of directors for seven years. Selectmen voted unanimously on May 20 to reject the bill from LRPA, saying in part the decision was based on a lack of a person to tape their meetings. Other concerns to selectmen were the sustainability of the business model and a mistake in the billing that led them to think this year’s costs would drop by $5,000 over last year’s. MacRae also said the town adopted a special petitioned warrant article in 2008 that provided for the taping of meetings and that appropriated $5,000 for the taping. He told the board he considers that a mandate from the voters and would “take legal steps” to ensure the mandate was obeyed. “I will not stand idly by while you watch this go down the toilet,” MacRae said. Selectboard Chair Ron Cormier likened LPRA to a “failing bank” that sees customers leave when word gets out that the business model may not be viable. Cormier also served on the LRPA Board for years. The remaining six members are Belmont, Gilford, Meredith, Laconia, Alton, and Northwood. Cameraman Patrick Sweeney, who is a Belmont resident, indicated that without Belmont and Gilford, which also put its decision to pay the bill on hold so the two town managers could consult with each other, the business model could fail. He said the system is technically ready for full streaming, meaning meetings can be broadcast live over a specified channel or the Internet. One way of raising additional money was LRPA’s outreach to individual sponsors in the same way public television and public radio do and the LRPA board has been actively seeking ways to raise additional money. Also speaking on behalf of LRPA was Heritage Commission member Linda Frawley and Center Baptist Church’s Rev. Doug Connolly. The church records its services for broadcast and, because it operates under the town of Belmont’s auspices, will no longer be able to do so should the the town not continue its membership. Frawley also noted the additional programming made possible by LRPA, including the shows done at the bandstand. She reminded the board that the town of Belmont gets close to $60,000 annually in franchise fees from MetroCast — the cable company that hosts LRPA’s three channels as part of its franchise agreements. Frawley also said Belmont doesn’t spend a lot of time on its image and that she believes broadcasting meetings on LRPA would better engage the community. She also said that there as some Shaker Regional High School students who would volunteer to do the taping. Beaudin and the board said they have contacted the school after one of its students made a great recording of the Belmont candidates night but didn’t get any volunteers. MacRae also talked about the WLNH Children’s Auction — the biggest singe nonprofit fundraiser in the Lakes Region. The entire event is broadcast live on LRPA each December and that coverage is widely credited with exploding it popularity, beginning in 2000. After listening for about an hour, Cormier said he would like to see a business plan. He said the only thing the town ever sees is a bill from LRPA and, like the outside public service agencies that come to the board and budget committee annually, he would like to see more about what they do and the longrange future plans. Selectman Jon Pike, who said a few months ago that if it was possible he supports taping all of the town’s meetings, told the people that they have given him a lot to think about during the next two weeks.

‘A’ being replaced by ‘E’: Gilford El moving to ‘standards-based’ grading By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
GILFORD — Gilford Elementary School students will start bringing home a new “standards-based” report card this coming fall, which educators who have developed the new report card say will provide parents with more information about how their child is progressing. Parents will find out more details about the change when they receive an open house flyer in August according to Ellen Peters, a third grade teacher at the elementary school who was a member of the committee which worked over the last two years to develop the new report card. Katie Bryant, a fourth grade teacher who was also part of the tean, said that the committee worked with grade level teams to develop standards for what students should know and the skills that they should be developing in the areas of reading, writing, math, science and social studies. She said currently students receive grades in three different categories; academics, effort and work habits. The new report cards give grades based on how to a student is performing in relation to the grade level standards which the team has developed. ‘’This will give students and parents
a guide for what is expected academically,’’ said Bryant, who said that the standards change over the course of the academic year to reflect changes in curriculum content. Students who have not yet been introduced to the standards will receive a N/A, Not Applicable, in many subject areas in the first two marking periods as the learning standards are being phased in over the year. The grades which will be given will include B, for Beginning in which minimal understanding is shown, D, for Developing which shows some understanding of grade-level expectations, P for Proficient, when a thorough understanding of standards is demonstrated , and E for Exceeds, when a student demonstrates an indepth understanding and shows selfmotivation as well as creative and new ways of thinking. The report cards will also provide information on student work habits in the classroom as well as physical education, music, art, computers and library according to Gilford Elementary School Principal Danielle Bolduc. She said that the new report cards have been developed as response to the new and more challenging Common Core standards and reflect the need to align classroom instruc-

SPORTS Strout no-hits Prospect Mountain Gilford’s senior pitcher Sydney Strout pitched a no hitter and struck out 18 batters resulting in the Golden Eagles recording their ninth shutout of the season. Gilford beat Prospect Mountain 3-0 in the preliminary round of the Division III playoffs on Friday. Gilford scored the first run in the bottom of the 1st when Sydney Strout hit a triple. Strout was replaced by courtesy runner Kristina Hayden who scored on a Lisa Osborne fielder’s choice to give Gilford a 1-0 lead. In the bottom of the 3rd with 2 outs Gilford strung together 3 hits in a row producing 2 runs. Lisa Osborne hit a double, followed by Abby Harris who hit a double and drove in Osborne. Osborne scored on a Paige Laliberte single. Gilford had more baserunners in the final 3 innings but could not produce anymore runs. Leading the 8 hit offensive attack for Gilford was Abby Harris 2/3 (1 double, 1 RBI), Sarah Lachapelle 2/3, and Sydney Strout with a triple. Other players to contribute to the Gilford offense with a hit apiece were Paige Laliberte (1 RBI), Lisa Osborne (1 RBI), and Mikaela Mattice. Gilford was scheduled to host Pelham yesterday evening. The winner of that contest will move on to Plymouth State University for the semi-final round, facing either Campbell or Stevens on Wednesday.

Game of inches won by Laconia BY ROGER AMSDEN FOR THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — The old saw about baseball being a game of inches proved to be true Saturday as the top-ranked Laconia High School Sachems continued their quest for the Division III title with a 4-2 win over the Winnisquam Bears. The contest was a nip and tuck battle in which two key plays, one a foul ball and the other a diving catch attempt which almost happened, proved the be the difference. The Sachems (17-1) jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the first inning after Drew Morin reached on an error when his hard-hit grounder went off Winnisquam third baseman Tony Martinez’s glove directly to the shortstop, whose throw to first was too late to get
Morin. Morin stole second and after Pat Guyer fouled out to first, proceeded to steal third. Graham Nyhan followed with a hard shot to right field that hit the top of the five foot high right field fence but bounced back into the playing field. The hit scored Morin but was hit so hard that all Nyhan could manage out of it was a single. After pitcher Steve Levasseur flied to center, Nyhan was gunned down trying to steal second by Winnisquam catcher Dom DeBlaise. The Sachems added another run in the second when Riley Stone was hit by a pitch and moved to second when James Salta laid down a sacrifice bunt which was juggled momentarily by Winnisquam pitcher Caleb Hutchins, see BASEBALL next page

GUM DISEASE: What are the signs? “Gum disease” is a layman’s term that refers to a group of bacterial infections. These infections attack the gums and the bone structure surrounding the teeth, and your experience of the condition depends on the specific nature of your disease. The first stage of this disease is called “gingivitis” and is associated with inflammation but no bone loss. Gingivitis is actually the most common disease in the world, but most patients don’t know they have it because it doesn’t hurt. The most common symptom is bleeding gums, and swelling or other subtle changes in the shape of the gum may occur. As the infection gets worse, the gums may appear more red and swollen, and bleed more briskly when they are brushed or flossed. The patient may develop bad breath and in later stages of the disease, which is called periodontitis, the teeth may loosen or change position (or both). Here’s the really interesting part: most patients who have moderate to severe gum disease are comfortable with their teeth and unaware that they have a problem until it is too late to treat it (except by extraction, which is effective but unfortunate). Gum disease is sort of like high blood pressure – it will cause serious problems if not diagnosed and treated in a timely way, but most patients don’t have any symptoms that they are aware of and must rely on a professional to diagnose the condition and determine what treatment is best. Has your dentist checked your gums lately? George T. Felt, DDS, MAGD 9 Northview Drive 279-6959 www.meredithdental.com
Sanbornton choir giving thank-you concert in Holderness HOLDERNESS — On Sunday, June 9 at 7 p.m. the choir of the First Baptist Church of Sanbornton will present a sacred concert at the Holderness Community Church on Routes 3 & 25 in Holderness. The choir will be directed by Dave Wilson of Franklin and accompanied by Kelly Cleveland of Gilmanton. This concert is a thank-you to the members and friends of the
Holderness Church for the generous gift of their choir robes to the Sanbornton Choir back in February. Selections will include a variety of traditional and contemporary hymns and gospel tunes by the choir, as well as a few solos and duets, and even a couple of special songs by children in the choir. All interested persons are welcome to attend.
TENNIS from preceding page Corsack/Panner entered the tournament seeded 7th out of 32 teams. The Gilford girls started with an 8-6 win over a team from St. Thomas, then cruised to an 8-0 win against a Monadnock team.
The Bow team of Sunday Swett/Nisha Naik ended Corsack/Panner’s run, concluding four years during which the two girls played in the top doubles spot for Gilford. “It was a great way to end a wonderful high school career,” said coach Hermann Defregger.
BASEBALL from preceding page allowing Salta to reach on a fielder’s choice. Andrew Salta popped to second but Andrew Kerns to followed with a single to left, scoring Stone. Hutchins prevented further damage by getting Cam Lyons to foul out to the catcher and Morin on a groundball to short. Winnisquam’s bats came to life in the third against Levassuer, who had retired five straight at that point. Greg Hunt led off with a single to center, Martinez singled to right and Tucker Normand also singled to right, loading the bases. Levasseur got Parker Normand on a swinging strike but DeBaise flied deep to center field for a sacrifice fly which scored Hunt, making it 2-1. Hutchins then hit a hopper to second base which went under Kern’s glove for an error, allowing Martinez to score and tie the game at 2-2. Levasseur fanned John Montalto to bring the inning to an end. Laconia scored what would prove to be the winning run in the fourth inning. James Salta opened the inning with a single to left and moved up when Andrew Salta laid down a perfect sacrifice bunt. Andrew Kerns flied to left for the second out and Cam Lyons followed with a looping fly ball to short center which Winnisquam center fielder Parker Normand dove for and was able to glove. But as he hit the ground, the ball popped out of his grasp, allowing Salta, who had been off at the crack of the bat, to score, making it 3-2. Lyons was out at second for the final out of the inning when the throw home was cut off and he was caught trying to stretch the hit into a double. In the Winnisquam fifth inning Tony Martinez fouled out to start the frame but Tucker Normand popped a single to into left and then was caught as he tried to steal second on a perfect throw by Nyhan to Kearns. Parker Normand then drew the only walk given up by Levasseur in the game and moved up to second when DeBlaise singled to left. Hutchins then drove a ground ball down the third base line which momentarily appeared to have tied the game but was ruled foul by the home plate umpire. Winnisquam coach Fred Caruso, believing the ball was fair, waved the baserunners around and told the home plate umpire that from where he was standing in the third base coaching box the ball had
appeared to have gone right over the third base bag. Hutchins never got a chance to take another swing. Both runners were off on the next pitch, which Levasseur threw wild allowing the runners to advance. Seeing home plate uncovered Parker Normand attempted to score but was caught in a run down between home and third base and was tagged out for the final out of the inning. Laconia added an insurance run in the fifth inning when Morin was hit by a pitch, as he has been many times this season, and reached second on a wild pitch as he was attempting a steal. Guyer lined to right and Graham Nyan was then intentionally walked, putting runners on first and second. A double steal put runners at second and third and Levasseur then hit a soft liner which was caught in foul ground by the Winnisquam first baseman. Riley Stone then hit an infield grounder between short and third which the Winnisquam third baseman gloved on the grass but bobbled as he tried to pick it up, allowing Morin to score and make it 4-2. James Salta was hit by a pitch to load the bases but Hutchins was able to induce Andrew Salta to hit a foul pop to third, ending the inning. Levasseur pitched a one-two-three sixth inning and Laconia threatened again with one out in the sixth when Lyons and Morin hit back-to-back singles with one out. Guyer fouled to first for the second out and Nyhan was at bat when DeBlaise picked Morin off first with a snap from his catcher’s position. Levasseur, who surrendered five hits and struck out five in his outing, had two strikes on Jack Decormier leading off the seventh inning when he hit with him a pitch. But he induced Hunt, who had singled earlier, to hit a two-hopper to second base which Kerns fed to Salta for a force out and which Salta then gunned to Stone at first for a double play. Tony Martinez then grounded sharply to Salta for the final out of the game. Winnisquam ended the season with a 12-6 record. The Sachems will continue their quest for the Division III title when they meet fifth-ranked Conant Wednesday at 7 p.m. at Southern New Hampshire University.

Heat off to NBA finals after 99-76 blasting of Pacers in Game 7 MIAMI (AP) — Their season, their legacy, their reign atop the NBA was all at stake, and the Miami Heat responded in a manner befitting defending champions — with a blowout. LeBron James scored 32 points and grabbed eight rebounds, ailing Dwyane Wade matched his postseason high with 21 points, and the Heat ran away from the Indiana Pacers 99-76 in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference finals on Monday night. The Heat will play the San Antonio Spurs for the NBA title in a series that starts Thursday in Miami. Miami led by as many as 28 points, a shocking amount for a series that had an aggregate score of Heat 569, Pacers 564 entering Monday night. The Heat actually trailed by six in the early going, were still down 21-19 after the first quarter and it was starting to look like it was going to be one of those down-to-the-wire nights. Not even close. James exited with 5:08 left, shaking retired soccer star David Beckham’s hand as he made his way to the Heat bench for a relatively subdued celebration. Not long afterward, security personnel started what’s become a familiar task in Miami — surrounding the court and stretching out a yellow rope,
Bruins crush Penguins 6-1 to take 2.0 series lead
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Boston strong indeed. Brad Marchand scored twice during a four-goal first period and the Boston Bruins routed the Pittsburgh Penguins 6-1 in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference finals on Monday night. David Krejci, Nathan Horton, Patrice Bergeron and Johnny Boychuk also scored for Boston, which hardly broke a sweat while going up 2-0 in the bestof-seven series. Tuukka Rask kept Sidney Crosby and the rest of the NHL’s top offense in check once again, stopping 26 shots. Game 3 is Wednesday night in Boston. Brandon Sutter netted Pittsburgh’s lone goal. Tomas Vokoun gave up three first-period goals on 12 shots before being replaced by Marc-Andre Fleury. The move did little to blunt the momentum in what has quickly become a one-sided series. Boston held Pittsburgh’s top-ranked power play scoreless for the second straight game, and the Bruins looked like the team marked as the Stanley Cup favorites, not the star-laden Penguins. Boston insisted it was fortunate to escape Game 1 with a 3-0 victory, saying a couple of bounces could have changed the course of the game dramatically. The Penguins blamed their choppy play, including a rare fight by Evgeni Malkin, on an eight-day layoff, stressing there was no need to panic. Might be time to start now. The last 16 teams to go up 2-0 in the conference finals have advanced to the Cup finals. The Penguins managed to escape a 2-0 hole against the Bruins in 1991 on their way to the franchise’s first championship. These days Mario Lemieux is relegated to watching from the owner’s box. At the moment, the view isn’t pretty. Marchand took advantage of a sloppy play by Crosby to give Boston the lead just 28 seconds into the game. Crosby attempted to flip a bouncing puck back into Boston’s zone. Marchand casually flipped it out of the air, then streaked in on Vokoun before putting a wrist shot over Vokoun’s glove. The Bruins — and Marchand — were just getting started. Boston poured in two more goals to rattle the Stanley Cup favorites and end Vokoun’s run through the postseason. Not that Vokoun had much help from the guys in front of him. Kris Letang failed to clear the puck at the end of a Boston power play and Torey Krug kept it in and fired a slap shot at the net. Neither Vokoun, Letang or Paul Martin could grab it and Horton reached down and tapped it in between a sea of sticks to make it 2-0.
preparing to hold people at bay for the looming oncourt trophy presentation. More than a few people didn’t stick around to see the East title formally presented. After all, it’s an all-or-nothing season for the Heat — and this trophy isn’t the one that will satisfy them. Ray Allen added 10 points for Miami, which earned its 78th victory of the season, matching the 11th-best, single-season total in NBA history. Roy Hibbert scored 18 points for the Pacers, who got 14 from David West, 13 from George Hill and 10 from Lance Stephenson. All-Star Paul George was held to seven points on 2-for-9 shooting and fouled out early in the fourth quarter. George was the last Indiana player on the floor as Miami prepped for its postgame celebration, shaking any hand he could find before being walked toward the visiting locker room by Pacers coach Frank Vogel, who slung an arm over his star’s shoulder. His time will likely come — someday. Not yet, though. Not with this Miami team built for titles. It’s the fourth trip to the finals for the Heat, who won the title in 2006 and have now been there all three years of the “Big Three” era, falling to Dallas in 2011 and then topping Oklahoma City in

five games last year. Miami went 2-0 against San Antonio this season, though neither of those games should be considered harbingers of what’s ahead. The Spurs rested four regulars in the first meeting, the Heat were without three injured starters in the second matchup. James delivered an inspirational address of sorts to his team Monday morning, publicly revealing no details of what he said afterward other than insisting that the Heat would be ready. He was right. After 5 minutes, it was 12-6 Indiana. After that, the rest of the half was pretty much all Miami. Once the Pacers cooled off a bit, the Heat immediately went into pull-away mode. Over the final 19 minutes of the half, Miami’s edge was 46-25. Over the final 11 minutes, it was 33-14, as James and Allen outscored the Pacers by themselves. Allen did less pregame shooting than usual on Monday. He was at the arena several hours before game time — as is his custom — and got in a pregame workout, but once he found a groove, he decided that was enough. And after going 13 for 46 in the first six games of the series, the NBA’s career leader in 3-pointers had to believe that he was simply overdue to get going.

Exemplary Country Estates of New Hampshire with Independent Scholar, Cristina Ashjian Thursday, June 13th @ 7:00 Laconia Rotary Hall In the early 20th Century, the New Hampshire Board of Agriculture launched a program to boost the rural economy and promote tourism through the sale of abandoned farms to summer residents. After introducing the country house movement, Ashjian focuses attention on some of the great country estates featured in the NH Program between 1902 and 1913. Which private estates were recognized as exemplary, and who were their owners? Using historic images and texts, Ashjian discusses well-known estates now open to the public such as The Fells on Lake Sunapee, The Rocks in Bethlehem, and Saint-Gaudens National Historic Site in Cornish. This lecture is sponsored by the New Hampshire Humanities Council and the Laconia Public Library.

Ill Salvadoran woman denied abortion has C-section SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador (AP) — A seriously ill woman denied a medical abortion has had a successful cesarean section to deliver a baby that doctors have given little chance of surviving, El Salvador’s Health Ministry announced late Monday. The 22-year-old woman, known only as Beatriz for privacy reasons, underwent the operation in the afternoon after 27 weeks of pregnancy, the ministry said. Her baby girl was born without a brain. “No one can say how long she will live,” Morena Herrera of the Feminist Collective for Local Development told The Associated Press. “It was painful to see the little creature. That’s what the grandmother told us, and the doctors confirmed it.” The country’s Supreme Court last week prohibited an abortion for Beatriz, who suffers from lupus and kidney failure and whose lawyers said the pregnancy was threatening her life. Her plight drew international attention and a ruling from the Inter-American Court on Human Rights that El Salvador should protect her life and help her end the pregnancy. The Health Ministry stepped in late last week after the ruling and said it would allow the C-section because the pregnancy was already at 26 weeks and the country’s strict abortion laws were no longer
at play. Ultrasound images had indicated her fetus was developing with only a brain stem. The Health Ministry can determine what is most medically sound for a mother versus the unborn baby and was lauded internationally for working to save the woman’s life. Doctors at the Maternity Hospital had been preparing to perform the C-section at the slightest danger signs to save Beatriz’s life, said Maria Isabel Rodriguez of the health ministry. The woman was recovering under the close watch of doctors late Monday. El Salvador’s laws prohibit all abortions, even when a woman’s health is at risk. Beatriz and any doctor who terminated her pregnancy would have faced arrest and criminal charges. A majority of judges on the high court rejected the appeal by Beatriz’s lawyers, saying physical and psychological exams by the government-run Institute of Legal Medicine found that her diseases were under control and that she could continue the pregnancy. Just as the Health Ministry was resolving the case, the Inter-American Court issued its ruling, but it no longer applied in the case.

LACONIA — What started as a party and ride as a memorial tribute to deceased community leader Peter Makris has, seven years later, turned into an important fundraiser for the Laconia Fire Department and the Easter Seals NH “Veterans Count” program, which aids active military and families, before, during and after deployment. To date, the ride has raised over $185,000. The Peter Makris Memorial Run which gets underway at 11 a.m. Saturday will start the 90th anniversary of Laconia Bike Week out right, providing hundreds of bikers an unusual opportunity to see all of the scenic lake without stop lights and traffic, thanks to the support of the State and local police. “Our 78-year old resort sits on 70-acre Paugus Bay which is the center of our bustling recreational community,” says Cynthia Makris, President of the familyowned NASWA Resort and also of Laconia Motorcycle Week. “We are proud to support Fire Chief Ken Erikson and his ongoing efforts to develop his Water Rescue Team to serve and protect our residents and visitors.” Makris was instrumental in raising funds to purchase the original boat for the Laconia Fire Department Water Rescue team. Registration, breakfast and line-up starts at the NAZBar & Grill. Commemorative t-shirts with a logo designed by David Uhl, are included, along with a luncheon buffet, live music and all day fun-filled party. A patriotic kick off with the Singing Trooper, Sgt. Dan Clark will be followed by the blessing of the bikes. When the run returns to the NASWA, the NAZBar & Grill will be the center of a celebration which features a lunch buffet prepared by students and instructors from the Lakes Region Community College. Specially prepared items will accompany the grill stations with the assistance of sponsor, InFusion Sales Group. Live music, raffles, promotions and a silent auction create a full-out “Biker Boogie” with an option for guests to roll up their jeans and cool their toes in the lake with the Bruce Marshall Band providing the live entertainment all afternoon.

Breeding bird census starts bright and early at Science Center on Saturday HOLDERNESS — For over three decades Senior Naturalist Dave Erler has conducted a census in early June of bird species that nest on the campus of Squam Lakes Natural Science Center. The census is done primarily by ear, listening for territorial songs of male birds, indicating probable nesting. The census will be held on Saturday, June 8 with the early session (5:30 a.m.) involving canvassing two forested zones, including Mt. Fayal. The later session (8 a.m.) covers fields, exhibit areas, and Kirkwood Gardens. Binoculars are available at no extra charge, or participants may bring their own. This program is for adults and older children. No charge to attend but reservations are required by calling 968-7194. The Science Center is holding its annual Kirkwood Gardens Day on Saturday, June 8 from 9 a.m.-1 p.m. This event has been held annually, rain or shine under the tents, since 1997. Visitors can gain inspiration from the gardens and find annual and perennial additions for their gardens. Expert gardeners will be on hand to answer garden and plant related questions. There will be drinks and baked goods for sale throughout the event. Visitors can also take part in a silent auction for items including ceramic potted annuals and perennials, various gift certificates, bird feeders, native shrubs, and more. All proceeds benefit Kirkwood Gardens at Squam Lakes Natural Science Center. Kirkwood Gardens Day is sponsored by Belknap Landscape Company. Also on Saturday from 1-2 p.m.
Iain MacLeod will talk about Project OspreyTrac,k which tracks Ospreys from New England to South America using GPS devices.

By Holiday Mathis
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You don’t criticize or compete with your people. You are absolutely loyal to those above and under you in rank. In this regard, you set a tone that others will follow today. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Even though your contribution to a group is substantial and important, you may not get personal props for this. It won’t hurt to quietly keep track, though, so later you can build a case for your own promotion. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Sometimes you like to be the performer who puts on a spectacular show. But right now you don’t want all the pressure that comes with that. You just want to do “you,” and you’ll find that people respond to exactly who you are. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 4). Your certainty in yourself opens doors. Make the most of the stellar work opportunities that come over the next six weeks. August has a loose, relaxed feel, and your social life thrives. Lifestyle changes in September improve your health and fitness, and a new guru helps. In February, you’ll declare your love, and this will be a life changer. Libra and Capricorn people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 8, 13, 24 and 32.
by Chad Carpenter
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Break your patterns. Doing things out of order, upside down and bottom to top will help you gain the detached point of view you need to understand what’s really going on today. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You have nothing to hide. And yet, you don’t like the idea that much of what you do, purchase, post, like and enjoy is being tracked in some way. Issues of privacy will arise. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You prefer to actually be useful, not to merely look busy. And there are those around who don’t even know better than to proudly display their idleness. You have something to teach them now. CANCER (June 22-July 22). There are those “stumble upon” kind of days when solutions come rolling into your path. But today will require more effort. In order to find an answer, you have to look for one. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). There’s a kind of chase going on inside your head akin to a dog chasing his own tail. If you’re not having any breakthroughs on the matter that’s on your mind, the best course is not to think about it for a while. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Instead of trying to control a situation, gain the trust of the people involved. Then you won’t have to assert yourself or attempt to force your agenda; you’ll just have to ask nicely. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). There is a huge difference between doing something weekly or monthly and doing it every day. There will be an opportunity to incorporate a good habit into your daily life, and there are rich rewards for doing so. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You will show patience and afford people more leeway than they deserve in the moment. To respect the people around you even when they are not acting in a respectful way toward you is the kind of true nobility you strive for. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). For most of the day, you’ll smile, charm and offer your two bits. You don’t mind entertaining others, but if you wind up alone tonight, you’ll love the company and will be happy for the break.

Page 22 — THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Tuesday, June 4, 2013
––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Tuesday, June 4, the 155th day of 2013. There are 210 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On June 4, 1913, British suffragist Emily Davison was struck and mortally injured after moving into the path of a horse during the running of the Epsom Derby; her exact motives remain unclear. (The horse that ran into Davison was Anmer, owned by King George V. Jockey Herbert Jones was thrown off and injured; Anmer recovered and completed the race on its own; Davison died at a hospital four days later.) On this date: In 1783, the Montgolfier brothers first publicly demonstrated their hot-air balloon, which did not carry any passengers, over Annonay, France. In 1812, the Louisiana Territory was renamed the Missouri Territory. The U.S. House of Representatives approved a declaration of war against Britain. In 1892, the Sierra Club was incorporated in San Francisco. In 1919, Congress approved the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, guaranteeing citizens the right to vote regardless of their gender, and sent it to the states for ratification. In 1939, the German ocean liner St. Louis, carrying more than 900 Jewish refugees from Germany, was turned away from the Florida coast by U.S. officials. In 1940, during World War II, the Allied military evacuation of more than 338,000 troops from Dunkirk, France, ended. In 1942, the World War II Battle of Midway began, resulting in a decisive American victory against Japan and marking the turning point of the war in the Pacific. In 1954, French Premier Joseph Laniel and Vietnamese Premier Buu Loc signed treaties in Paris according “complete independence” to Vietnam. In 1972, a jury in San Jose, Calif., acquitted radical activist Angela Davis of murder and kidnapping for her alleged connection to a deadly courthouse shootout in Marin County in 1970. In 1986, Jonathan Jay Pollard, a former Navy intelligence analyst, pleaded guilty in Washington to conspiring to deliver information related to the national defense to a foreign government, specifically Israel. (He is serving a life prison term.) In 1998, a federal judge sentenced Terry Nichols to life in prison for his role in the Oklahoma City bombing. Ten years ago: President George W. Bush held landmark meetings with the Israeli and Palestinian prime ministers, hoping to advance a Middle East peace plan after winning new support from top Arab leaders. Martha Stewart stepped down as head of her media empire, hours after federal prosecutors in New York charged her with obstruction of justice, conspiracy, securities fraud and lying to investigators. Five years ago: Barack Obama, having clinched the Democratic presidential nomination, picked Caroline Kennedy to help him choose a running mate. One year ago: With President Barack Obama standing by his side, former President Bill Clinton warned during a speech in New York that a Mitt Romney presidency would be “calamitous” for the nation and the world.

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Tuesday, June 4, 2013— Page 25
ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Annie: I was overweight throughout most of my childhood and became morbidly obese after high school. When I was in college, I had terrible self-esteem and a horrible body image. I never dated. Three years ago, I had gastric bypass and have since lost more than 200 pounds. I’ve been trying to start dating, but the individuals I have approached are either seeing someone else or are not interested. I tried online dating sites, but the men who responded all live far away, some in other countries, and I’m leery of proceeding. I am not sure about the bar scene and am unaware of any singles groups in my area. So, I guess I would like some advice on how and where to start relationships. -- Breaking Out of My Shell Dear Breaking: There are better online dating sites that will match you up with men in your area (or at least in the same country). Try again. You also should ask your friends and relatives to introduce you to available men they know. Local churches and synagogues often have singles groups, and you should be able to attend some functions without having to be a member. Most importantly, project a confident, positive exterior. Smile. Guys like women who are fun to talk to. And while you are searching for a date, participate in activities that interest you. This will have the added benefit of making you more interesting to be around. Good luck. Dear Annie: I have a beautiful granddaughter who is getting married in June. However, I am not invited to the wedding. I’ve been told they are keeping it really small because of the size of the facility. But I found out there will be about 20 guests. I’m invited to the reception, and I’ve already been told what gift my granddaughter wants as a wedding present. It’s quite pricey.
I thought I had a good relationship with my grandkids. But sometimes it seems I’m only needed when they want expensive things. Should I keep quiet about this hurt? I’m not sure I can go to the reception, and that may cause a larger distance between us. -- Upset Grandmother Dear Upset: Of course, we would hope the bride would want her grandmother to be at the wedding, but let’s not jump to conclusions. A ceremony with 20 guests is exceedingly small and also includes members of the groom’s immediate family, of whom there may be many. If you can possibly attend the reception, it would be lovely. Either way, you are under no obligation to purchase an expensive wedding present simply because your granddaughter asked for one. Dear Annie: It was amazing and heartwarming to read stories of grandparents being reunited with their grandchildren after so many years of estrangement. What bothers me about these letters, however, is that they are one-sided. Fifteen years ago, I parted ways with my family when I hung up on my father. I didn’t find the humor in his jokes about the lifelong physical and mental abuse I suffered at the hands of my mother. Since then, my parents have not contacted me, and I have not contacted them. Meanwhile, I have received letters and cards from family members telling me to change my evil ways and let my parents into my life. I have run into people who lecture me about my rude behavior. I know about the commandment to honor my mother and father, but honestly, I am much happier not having my parents or their abuse in my life. This is not the way I would have chosen to live, and it saddens me that I am made to be the villain in a situation where it takes two to tango. -- Family-Free from Wisconsin
