LACONIA — In the course of planning a new correctional facility, the Belknap County Commissioners are fast nearing the point where, without an appropriation from the Belknap County Convention to fund architectural and engineering work, the process would grind to a halt. And the prospect of mustering a majority of the 18

members of the convention, 13 of them Republicans, for such an endeavor look bleak. “They sure don’t have the votes,” said Rep. Bob Greemore (R-Meredith), vicechair of the convention, on Wednesday. “I don’t see us rushing into this. They won’t get it. There are a number who say no way, no how. Not on my watch,” he continued, “and even those of us who agree we have to
do something still have a lot of questions.” “I don’t think we’re even close,” agreed Rep. Frank Tilton (R-Laconia), who chairs the executive committee of the convention, “and the need is still there. We are still wrestling with some of the very early steps that should have been taken.” Last week, Ken Ricci and Laura Maiello of Ricci Greene Associates, a consultsee JaiL page 28

laCONia, N.H.
LACONIA — The ongoing construction of the new football field behind the high school has temporarily stopped after storm water from the upper
practice field breached one retaining wall during last Sunday’s downpour. The runoff from the breached area cascaded down to the playing field and onto the new utility field that is just behind
the school. The estimate to install additional and in some cases, modify existing drainage is about $50,000, however none of the design and engineering work has been done.
The good news, said School District District Business Manager Ed Emond, is that if the damage had happened after the synthetic turf on Jim Fitzgerald Field had been installed, the damage could see draiNaGE page 8

Egypt’s military vows no ‘exceptional’ measures against any group CAIRO (AP) — The spokesman of Egypt’s military says it will not carry out any exceptional or arbitrary measures against any political group, amid a swift crackdown on the group of the ousted Islamist president, the Muslim Brotherhood. Col. Ahmed Mohammed Ali said on his official
Facebook page late Thursday the armed forces and security agencies want to “ensure national reconciliation, constructive justice and tolerance.” He did not say how national reconciliation can be achieved. Security agencies have arrested at least four senior Brotherhood figures, a day after the
ouster of Mohammed Morsi, who is also detained. He was replaced by Egypt’s chief justice, sworn in as interim president. Ali said only peaceful protests will be tolerated, urging Egyptians to avoid attacks on Brotherhood offices to prevent an “endless cycle of revenge.”
JOHANNESBURG (AP) — Nelson Mandela is being kept alive by a breathing machine and faces “impending death,” court documents show. The former president’s health is “perilous,” according to documents filed in the court case that resulted in the remains of his three deceased children being reburied Thursday in their original graves. “The anticipation of his impending death is based on real and substantial grounds,” the court filing said. Mandela, who was hospitalized on June 8, remains in critical but stable condition, according to the office of President Jacob Zuma, who visited the anti-apartheid leader on Thursday. The president’s office also said doctors denied reports that 94-yearold Mandela is in a “vegetative state.”
A younger person put on mechanical ventilation — life support — can be weaned off the machine and recover, but that it can be difficult or impossible for an older person. The longer a person is on ventilation the less the chance of recovery, said the chief executive of the Faculty of Consulting Physicians of South Africa. “It indicates a very poor prognosis for recovery because it means that he’s either too weak or too sick to breathe on his own,” said Dr. Adri Kok, who has no connection to Mandela’s care. “Usually if a person does need that, any person, not keeping in mind his age at all, for any person it would be indicative of a grave illness.” “When they say ‘perilous’ I think that would be a
fair description,” she said. In Mandela’s hometown, Qunu, on Thursday, the bodies of three of his children were returned to their original resting site following the court order. Family members and community elders attended a ceremony on the Mandela property that included the singing of hymns. The reburial took place in Qunu, where Mandela grew up and where the former president has said he wants to be buried. Forensic tests earlier confirmed the remains were those of Mandela’s children. Grandson Mandla Mandela moved the bodies to his village of Mvezo — Nelson Mandela’s birthplace — in 2011. The two towns are about 25 kilometers see MANDELA page 30
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Striking San Francisco Bay Area rail workers and transit agency officials returned to the bargaining table on Thursday for talks that one union leader described as “frustrating.” Joe Bomberger with the Service Employees International Union told reporters as he entered the negotiating site in Oakland that Bay Area Rapid Transit officials were not “substantially addressing” any of the safety concerns that the unions have for the public and workers. Those concerns include lighting in tunnels and bullet-proof glass for station agent booths. Bomberger was then pulled away by another union official. The two sides have been told by a state mediator not to speak to the media. The strike is in its fourth day, though commuters got a reprieve from crowded buses and gridlock on the roads because of the Fourth of July holiday. see BART page 10
LA PAZ, Bolivia (AP) — Bolivian President Evo Morales said Thursday that the rerouting of his plane over suspicions that National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden was on board was a plot by the U.S. to intimidate him and other Latin American leaders. Morales, long a fierce critic of U.S. policy toward Latin America, received a hero’s welcome from a cheering crowd in La Paz airport late Wednesday night. His return followed a dramatic, unplanned 14-hour layover in Vienna that ignited an international diplomatic row. Bolivia’s government said France, Spain and Portugal refused to let the president’s plane through their airspace, forcing it to land in Austria. He was flying home from a summit in Russia. Latin American leaders were outraged by the incident, calling it a violation of national sovereignty and a slap in the face for a region that has suffered through humiliations by Europe and several U.S.backed military coups. Several South American presidents were headed to the Bolivian city of Cochabamba on Thursday to show their support for the leftist leader.
Morales said the incident involving his plane was a provocation to the region, and he urged European nations to “free themselves” from the U.S. “The United States is using its agent (Snowden) and the president (of Bolivia) to intimidate the whole region,” he said. Bolivian government officials have repeatedly said they believe that Washington was behind the incident. France sent an apology to the Bolivian government. But Morales said “apologies are not enough because the stance is that international treaties must be respected.” Spain’s Foreign Affairs Minister Jose Manuel Garcia-Margallo said his country did not forbid Morale’s president from landing in its territory. Amid the tensions, the U.S. embassy in La Paz cancelled Independence Day celebrations scheduled for Thursday. In the eastern city of Santa Cruz, Bolivian government sympathizers painted protest slogans on the doors of the American consulate.

We celebrate our streak of independence “I feel I have an obligation to do everything I can to keep this country safe. So put that in your pipe and smoke it.” That’s how Sen. Dianne Feinstein explained her view, which is winning her buckets of liberal criticism, as a defender of the NSA program. Edward Snowden’s leaks? “An act of treason.” She is 80 years old, and she is not pulling her punches. Right on. This is what politics should be about. She is not doing what most of her friends want her to do. She isn’t even playing around with some kind of middle ground — some yes, I’m for security, and yes, I’m for privacy, and of course there doesn’t have to be a tradeoff between the two. Actually, there does. I can’t really say I agree with Feinstein. How could I? She chairs the Senate Intelligence Committee. She knows as much about this program — how it works, what we’ve learned, plots that have been thwarted — as anyone. I don’t. I know there are tradeoffs. I know the threats are real. But as for evaluating the effectiveness of this program, how can anyone who doesn’t know the details do that? As for specific abuses of privacy, we don’t know about that, either, with the exception of the most egregious, which is of course Snowden’s abuse. What I find so admirable about Feinstein’s stand is just how nonpolitical it is. It isn’t based on a poll. A poll would never tell her to go so hard on this one. And why would she need a poll, anyway? It has nothing to do with who has given her money in past campaigns. Liberals give her money. I’m sure she’s hearing from them. But so what? It isn’t intended to win friends. She’ll still be reviled for her ardent support of gun control by many of those who agree with her on this.
She’s a longtime supporter of gay marriage. Feinstein is never going to be the darling of the right, and I don’t think she cares two whits about that. She is doing what she thinks is right. She is standing up because she thinks it’s what’s needed to protect our country. Agree with her or disagree with her, I defy you not to smile a little on this July 4th weekend and remember that standing on principle for what a leader believes is right — throwing the usual rules of “politics” to the wind — is the essence of the miracle we call America. That’s why we want “great” men and women in public office and on the bench. Most of the time, in the run-of-the-mill vote or decision or dispute, you may not need “greatness” to pick a side. “Greatness” is not a very good predictor of how someone will do at fundraising or whether they can endure months or years of canned speeches and town halls without making a ridiculous mistake. “Greatness” is not necessarily the same thing as never having done anything in your life that you wouldn’t want to go viral. We need great men and women for important moments, when what counts is courage and conviction, when you need to risk the wrath of your friends in order to seek what you believe to be the larger good. Sen. Dianne Feinstein has always been known for a streak of independence. It’s what makes a great senator. It’s what we celebrate with joy on the Fourth of July.

Happy Independents Week! Stay, eat & shop local; pass the word To The Daily Sun, Belknap Independent Business Alliance (BIBA) is hosting Independents Week from July 1 through 7 in celebration of our nation’s locallyowned, independent businesses. This nationwide campaign is designed to recognize the importance of economic democracy and community self-determination. Independents Week is a week-long celebration praising local businesses for their commitment to individuality and efforts to keep economic prosperity within the community. We celebrate the spirit of entrepreneurism and individuality, as we recognize independent and locally-owned contributions of time, talent, goods and services.
While providing BIBA an opportunity to promote its members and raise awareness of the importance of local, independent businesses and the values they embody, we also take this week to honor the social fabric of our unique community and how much our local independent shops contribute to it. In addition, this campaign demonstrates the importance of supporting local businesses to tourists, who visit the Lakes Region during this busy holiday, directing these visitors where to stay, eat and shop. Happy Independents Week and remember Stay, Eat and Shop Local and pass the word! Kate Bishop Hamel Executive Director BIBA

LETTERS Overreaching? 80% of GOP senators voted for Civil Rights Act To The Daily Sun, I often find Mr. Maloof’s letters to be interesting or amusing. However, I found his letter in Tuesday’s issue of The Daily Sun strange . . . very strange. For example. He seems to believe that the “conservative mindset” has to do with old people as, in his view, the term “young Republicans” is “ . . . oxymoronic . . . sort of like “compassionate Republican” or “gospel truth”. He then goes on to say that the term conservatives would be attached to more mature people — especially the ones you can fool all the time. Please keep those phrases in mind as we look at Mr. Maloof’s following statements. First, he said that conservatives “ . . . have seen the nation decline in so many ways . . . (moral, economic, prestige, etc). They want to hang on to the past while it keeps slipping away.” And he says that conservative get angry rather than apathetic. I have to ask, has anyone checked to see what’s in the drinking water at Plymouth State? In those few words, Mr. Maloof appears to be making an argument that a nation with declining morals, a staggering economy, that is losing respect around the world, is really what we all should espouse. And, he demeans Republicans for not being “apathetic” about it. That sort of logic deserves a resounding oy vey! Mr. Maloof also posits that the religious right, fundamentalists, are notorious for “overreaching”. To make his point he wrote the following: “They overreached in 1925 with the Skopes monkey trial; they overreached in 1933 with the abolishment of prohibition; they overreached in 1964 with the Civil Rights Act; and in 1965 with the Immigration and Nationality Act . . .”. A few important factual corrections need to be made. The first is that what has been popularly termed the Scopes Monkey Trial was brought about by the ACLU filing suit over Tennessee’s Butler Act. That act, passed by Tennessee’s Democrat
Legislature, and signed into laws by Tennessee’s Democrat Governor, prohibited teaching the theory of evolution in the classroom. John T. Scopes was the teacher who violated that act. The question for Mr. Maloof is, where is the Republican overreach in this all Democrat and ACLU story. The next factual correction has to do with Mr. Maloof’s claim that the Republican’s overreached with the passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. The facts are that in 1964, with Democrat Lyndon B. Johnson as president, the U.S. Senate had 66 Democrats and 34 Republicans; a filibuster proof majority. However, that bill would not have passed without the votes of 80 percent of the Republican Senators as only two thirds of Democrats voted for the bill. So the question to be posed is, does Mr. Maloof believe it was wrong to pass the Civil Rights Act? In his next to last paragraph, I thought Mr. Maloof took a page out of Professor Sandy’s playbook when he chose to label the Republican mindset as “ . . . cognitive dissonance — a reaction between clearly held beliefs and undeniable evidence in opposition to those beliefs.” . Quickly now Mr. Maloof, take a look in the Mirror. Finally, when that small group of men met in Ripon, WI, and formed the Republican party for the expressed purpose of abolishing slavery, was that political overreach? When that very first Republican President, Abraham Lincoln, issued the Emancipation Proclamation, was that political overreach? And, when 630,000 people died in the effort to rid the scourge of slavery, was that political overreach? When those Republicans voted favorably for the Civil Rights Act of 1964, was that political overreach. When that group of Tennessee Democrats formed the Ku Klux Klan, was that political overreach? Cognitive dissonance? You betcha! Will someone please check the water at Plymouth State. Bob Meade Laconia

LETTERS Many who complain about what’s wrong are living the good life To The Daily Sun, I would like to thank G.W. Brooks for his letter written June 27 in The Daily Sun. There are those who live the good life in this country but continue to complain about it on almost a daily basis. I celebrated Memorial Day this year by visiting again the traveling Vietnam wall in North Haverill, N.H. My first viewing was was years ago in Meredith. I took with me a copy of a Life magazine dated June 27, 1969. The headline reads THE FACES OF THE AMERICAN DEAD IN VIETNAM — ONE WEEK’S TOLL. The magazine has photos of each one of the those killed that week. I made a list of two I knew, plus three from N.H. who died that week. This article covers the week of May 28 to June 3, 1969, which would have been Memorial Day week 44 years ago. I visited the three N.H. troopers, plus the two I knew. Later, as I sat in the bleachers, I listened to the guest speakers tell of their experiences and staring at the wall, the tears came. I felt great praise for those who answered their countries call to serve, whether they agreed with it or not. The speakers told of their year or years they spent
in “NAM”. The anger they spoke about was the welcome home they received. I will skip the rest of this part of the story as everyone knows what happened to us on returning “HOME”. I, as a career soldier, served 2.5 years in Vietnam, a year before that in Thailand. I know next to nothing about those who continue to write letters of a negative attitude about most everything wrong with this country. What I can tell is that some of them are well educated, are living the good life our fighting men and women fought and died to keep. It would be enlightening to me if they would explain just once what they have done for this country and just what they have done to make it better. I, as have millions of others, have spent parts of our lives on foreign soil and greatly appreciate the country we live in. I will always wonder if those who are protesting today were part of the group that made life miserable for us when we returned home. It is well known that less than 1 percent of Americans serve in the military, so the least you can do is show some respect to those that do. To those who have served THANK YOU AND WELCOME HOME Henry Osmer Hill
One needs compassion, understanding & tolerance of all people To The Daily Sun, “Why do liberals cling so tenaciously to their deck of race cards?’ I will try to answer and in turn address some of your concerns in Mr. Wiles letter written to the Laconia Daily Sun, published on Thursday, June 27. 1) I watched the daily coverage during and after the time period of when George Zimmerman shot and killed Trayvon Martin. It’s recorded on the police tapes that Zimmerman was told by the dispatcher to “stay in your vehicle and await the arrival of law enforcement”. 2) The Police Chief of Sanford, Florida resigned from his position as a result of his handling of the subsequent arrest and follow-up investigation of the shooting. 3) Your reference to racial equality in this country, according to who? a) The recent Supreme Court decision in Shelby County, Alabama vs. Holder, Attorney General which declared the Voting Rights Act of 1965 unconstitutional? b) Or the constant and ongoing
“Gerrymandering” of voting districts? c) Many individual state governors changing “vote by mail” criteria? d) Shortening days and hours involved in order to register for voting? e) Requesting voters to produce I.D. in order to vote at the polls? One need not be to the Left or Right, one needs compassion, understanding and tolerance for ALL human beings. Your references and quotes from the media coverage of the Zimmerman trial are taken out of context. Why? To what end? May I suggest that we watch the media coverage of the Zimmerman trial each day. Oh wait, we cannot do that here in N.H. May I then suggest a trip to Florida in order to watch the daily coverage free from misleading and distorted media “bites”. We have to allow the judicial process to take its course. We have to keep informed and keep an open mind before we allude to the ideas of riots as a result of perceived injustice on either side of this trial. Bernadette Loesch Laconia

If you favor national gun owner database you’re living in wrong place To The Daily Sun, Are you in favor of having a background check done when some one is buying a gun? I think most people would agree to that. The real fact is that all gun buyers already do need to get checked out by the police every time they buy a gun at a gun store. If some one wants to sell a gun to a total stranger in a private sale, they have the responsibility to take reasonable care that the buyer is not a “prohibited person”. It is a crime to knowingly provide a weapon to someone who is not supposed to have one. They have the option to go with that person to a gun store and perform a background check. But most of the time such transfers are done between people who know each other, or can provide documentation of their good character. The first rule is that they be a legal resident of New Hampshire and must be 18 years old for a long gun or 21 for a handgun. Another good sign would be that they already were a gun owner that had passed a police check before. The best credential of all would be a License to Carry Loaded and Concealed, which shows that this individual had been fully vetted by the police recently. The thing is that many people buying a gun in a gun store are being checked out over and over, redundantly, at times clogging up the instant check system and
wasting police resources that could be better directed toward actual criminal activity. In some states, a gun buyer only needs to show their License to Carry, and then can skip the instant check system. I think that this could work very well in New Hampshire. The only way we could ever have 100 percent police checks on every single gun transfer would be to have a data base of every single firearm that exists in the United States, and track who has which. Now, if you would be in favor of that, you are living in the wrong country. There are those people coming here from other states trying to scare us into enacting more restrictions on gun transfers. Did you know that our state has the 48th lowest rate of violent crime in the whole country? This statistic comes from the U.S. Census Bureau. The only states with a lower rate of violent crime are our neighbors Vermont and Maine, both with relaxed attitudes about gun ownership as we have. Contrast that with the crime rate of New York state which is 20th and has three times the murder, robbery and violence that we do. Don’t you think that those places should mind their own business and clean up their own problems? Our systems are clearly working for us. Let’s not mess with success. Alan Moon Tilton
Medicaid expansion money has already been set aside for us to use To The Daily Sun, Medicaid expansion is important to all of us. The federal government, which has demonstrated a time-honored commitment to Medicaid since 1965, has agreed to pay 100 percent of the cost for the expansion for the first three years and 90 percent every year after that. The Lewin Group estimates that 58,000 more low-income adults will benefit from affordable, quality health coverage as a result of Medicaid expansion. This is a program that benefits New Hampshire. This program would be a win/win; there is something in this for everyone. Previously uninsured individuals and families would get the coverage that they so desperately need and by reducing their reliance on the emergency room for health care, which is
both inefficient and very expensive; all taxpayers will save money. The Lewin group estimates that $2.5 billion in federal funds would be injected into the N.H. economy between 2014 and 2020, which would create 700 new jobs and boost salaries giving families more disposable income to spend on consumer goods instead of medical bills. This money has already been set aside for our use. If we do not take it, another state will. Currently, New Hampshire sends more tax dollars to Washington, D.C. than we get back. Accepting the federal funds to expand Medicaid would help to ensure we are getting our fair share of services for our money. Paul Blackford Franklin
Thank you to Shaw’s for the water we were able sell on boardwalk To The Daily Sun, Despite the fact that Mother Nature was less than cooperative for Motorcycle Week this year, the Kiwanis Club of Laconia still managed to eke out a decent profit operating a refreshment stand on the Weirs boardwalk.

Water Wars among group of new summer attractions at Gunstock By RogeR Amsden FOR THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
GILFORD — Gunstock Mountain Resort is adding some new summer attractions in its base lodge area this year, rounding out its Adventure Park and zip line tour attractions which were installed two years ago. ‘’Gravity works for us,’’ says Bill Quigley, Gunstock’s sales and marketing director, who says the new attractions which will open in July include; — Water Wars, the ultimate water balloon fight. Participants man a battle station and fire water balloons at their opponent. If they hit the depth charge target their challenger gets soaked. — Cobble Mountain Mining Company. People pour a batch of mining “rough” into the tray and watch as the sluiceway water reveals treasures. — Spider Mountain, featuring a climbing wall, bungee jumping and inflatable slide and more. — Big Air Bag Launch Ramp, coming at the end of July. Participants will experience launching a tube over a ramp and landing softly into a pillow of air. ‘’These are all part of our building a better experience for our visitors,’’ says Quigley, who says that the attractions are located in the Fun Park area where there is presently a skateboard park and a zip line orientation run. He says that Gunstock is undergoing a significant change as it focuses on attracting more summer visitors to the area, which has 300 camping sites and a host of visitor attractions. Gunstock Mountain Adventure Park, now open daily for the season, offers the longest zip line spans in the Continental United States and it’s Aerial Treetop Adventures is New England’s largest aerial obstacle, ropes and zip line course. The adventure course offers 91 different challenges over five courses suspended in the trees. There is also an Explorer Course for children 10 and under with many of the same challenges as the larger course, including a zipline.

Gunstock also offers Segway tours. The Adventure Park, Treetop Adventures and Segway tours were part of a $2.1 million investment made at the county-owned recreation area two years ago, which followed on the heels of a $4 million expansion of its skiing operations in 2009. Quigley said the most recent investments are
already bearing fruit with 30,000 visitors last year to the Adventure Park. He said that during the course of the year Gunstock attracts about 50,000 campers and is looking at as many as 135,000 summer and fall visitors this year. ‘’The Tough Mudder event the first weekend in see next page

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

The blue lines on this map indicate where the drainage runs along the three new fields behind Laconia High School. Hand-drwn circles indicate area that engineers feel need improvement and where the problems stemming from two recent significant storms were. (Laconia Daily Sun photo)
DRAINAGE from page one have been upwards of a quarter-million dollars. The news was made public at a specially-convened meeting of the city’s Joint Building Committee on Wednesday night. Though not thrilled with what he thinks are some design flaws and “broken-hearted” when he saw the damage, Committee Co-Chair Bob Hamel (City Councicl, Ward 5) said it was almost a “blessing in disguise” because the committee and engineers could see the weak points in the drainage system before the job was completed. Project Manager and lead engineer
Chad Montrose said there were two significant recent storms — one on June 22 and one on June 29. The June 29 storm dumped two inches of rain in the area in 30 minutes. Montrose also said the fields are “active construction sites” and had the grass on the upper (Bobotas) field had had enough time to grow it roots, the damage would not have been so severe. The three new fields are constructed in tiers — each tier higher that the other, with the all purpose field at the lowest western point on the property and the practice field on the highest, eastern point.

DOVER, N.H. (AP) — A former school board chairman in Dover, N.H., has been sentenced from 18 months to five years in prison after pleading guilty to running a fraudulent investment scheme. Nickolas Skaltsis also was ordered to pay back his victims more than $277,000. Prosecutors say between 2010 and 2012, Skaltsis solicited money from at least 21 investors who believed their funds would be used to rehabilitate
real estate in Strafford County. Investors were told they would see a return of up to 24 percent interest. Prosecutors said Skaltsis raised more than $300,000, but only one investor was repaid in full. They said he deposited money he acquired into his own bank accounts or used small portions to make payments to other investors. It’s not clear whether investors will see their money returned.
from preceding page crowned so there is no puddling in the middle. The upper field and the all purpose field are slightly pitched – about 1-3/4 percent from corner to corner on a diagonal. Engineers said up to a 2-percent pitch is standard and the Opechee fields are pitched at two percent. Once the synthetic turf is installed, it is designed to drain straight down into a specially designed bed of crushed stone. Montose said it appears that the stone bed is over-compressing and not as porous as it should be. His recommendation is to remove about four inches of the eight inches of stone bed. Members Henry Lipman and Hamel expressed concern about who was going to pay for what. Montose said any additional drainage and design work is “value added” and should be paid for by the city and School District. He said any damage to the field caused by engineering faults or during construction should be born by the contractors. “Any design issues will be our responsibility,” Montose said. “Our goal is to fix this once.” Moving forward, committee members said they wanted the upper practice field fixed before the syn-
thetic turf is installed. Although sodding the field instead of sowing it would fix the problem faster, all agreed they would rather plant seed than sod because the root system would be better for drainage. Also it would cost $40,000 to sod the field while seed costs significantly less money. Emond said the first home football game is September 6 and football practice is scheduled to begin on August 1. He said it was better to find another place for practice so they can be ready to install the synthetic field. At the worst, Emond said they could switch the first home game to an away game if it was absolutely necessary. The committee decided to allow the c-chairs — Hamel and School Board Chair Joe Cormier — to approve the new design plans. It also voted to withhold $108,000 from the $682,000 from the recent payment to Harvey Construction, who subcontracted Hiltz to install the drainage system. Montrose said he expected to meet with all the contractors and subcontractors no later than Friday and report to Hamel and Cormier by Monday or Tuesday.

ler wrote. “The statute is not punitive; rather it is regulatory.” Attorney Barbara Keshen of the Civil Liberties Union said she’s disappointed with the outcome. “Where are they going to move?” she asked. “They can’t live on public land. They can’t live on private land. So, you know, what’s going to happen to these people?” Mary Ann Dempsey, senior assistant attorney general, said the state is prepared to help homeless people move from camps into shelters. She said state officials will discuss plans for enforcement soon. Concord’s two emergency winter shelters closed this spring.

Judge says 3 homeless men can’t camp on public land
CONCORD (AP) — A judge has ruled against three homeless men who challenged a “No Camping” order on public lands in New Hampshire. The Concord Monitor reports the ruling allows the state to evict homeless residents from its land around Concord. The men had said they have a right to camp on the public land in Concord, where officials posted “no trespassing” and “no camping signs” this spring. The New Hampshire Civil Liberties Union filed the lawsuit on their behalf earlier this year. The law “does not criminalize homelessness,” Merrimack County Superior Court Judge Larry Smuk-

Management of Franklin Falls Farm reverting to Community Bridges FRANKLIN — The care of the 13 long-term developmentally disabled patients at Franklin Falls Farm will shift from the Community Services Council of New Hampshire to Community Bridges — a Concord-based, private non-profit organization providing resources and direct services to individuals and families dealing with development impairments. Roy Gerstenberger, the executive director of Community Bridges, said the 30 employees at Franklin Falls who are primarily from the Franklin area, will become Community Bridges employees and there won’t be any layoffs. Those who were eligible for benefits will get the same benefit package. Community Bridges will lease the property.
Community Services has been operating Franklin Falls as a subcontractor to Community Bridges. Now, Community Bridges will provide the care directly. Acting Executive Director Kelsea Hale of Community Services said her organization is “winding downs its operations” because it is not longer financially sustainable. The decision to make the transitions, said Gerstenberger and Hale, was made mutually and both agencies have pledged to make the transition as smooth as possible. Community Services also operates a residential facility on Hope Avenue that will also transfer to Community Bridges. — Gail Ober
BART from page 2 BART is the nation’s fifth largest rail system and carries about 400,000 commuters each weekday. The two sides negotiated into the night Wednesday. BART issued a statement, saying it was sorry that the actions of the unions had caused such a tremendous disruption. The strike began early Monday after talks broke off. Negotiations resumed Tuesday as political pressure and public pleas mounted.
Key issues in the labor dispute include salaries, pensions, health care and safety. BART has said workers from the two unions average about $71,000 in base salary and $11,000 in overtime annually. The workers also pay a flat $92 monthly fee for health insurance. The unions — which represent nearly 2,400 train operators, station agents, mechanics, maintenance workers and professional staff — want a 5 percent raise each year over the next three years.

Clarification: Recycling Matthew Perkins will serve 1 to 3 years for cocaine percentage needs to be calculated over a 2 week period to be accurate LACONIA — A story about totals from the first day of the city’s new mandatory recycling program that appeared on page one of The Daily Sun on Wednesday needs clarification. The story reported that the amount of recyclables collected on the Monday route this week was 43 percent of the total solid waste stream for that day, a total that was almost double the amount collected two weeks earlier. While the 43 percent was correct in and of itself, it was misleading to suggest the overall recycling percentage will rise that dramatically right off the bat. Recyclables will continue to be collected only every other week, while trash will continue to be picked up weekly. Therefore, the amount of recyclables must be divided by the weight of total solid waste collection over a two week period to get the true percentage recyclables represent. And those numbers, obviously, will be not be available until after July 12. City officials have set set 40 percent as their relatively immediate target. City Manager Scott Myer noted on Wednesday that for the two week period starting June 3, recyclables totaled 29.7 percent of the total waste stream for the first week alone, but just 16.1 percent of the total for the entire two week period.
LACONIA — A Massachusetts man pleaded guilty to possession of cocaine earlier this week in the Belknap County Superior Court. Matthew Perkins, 23, formerly of Laconia, was sentenced to serve 1 to 3 years in the New Hampshire State Prison. He was credited with 156 days of time served and ordered to complete a drug assessment program. Perkins was initially charged with one count of possession of a narcotic drug and one count of possession of a narcotic drug with intent to distribute. On November 24, 2012 , Laconia Police were called to the intersection of Oak and Pleasant Street for a fight between two men — one of whom was identified by police as Perkins. Police told them to stop fighting and after they initially refused, Perkins walked down Oak and the other man walked in a different direction. When an officer made contact with Perkins, police said looked as if he was reaching into his right pocket and was ordered to the ground and handcuffed. Police found nine individual baggies of cocaine and $803 that Judge Kenneth McHugh ordered be forfeited to the Laconia Police Drug Intervention Unit. In 2009 Perkins pleaded guilty in Belknap County Superior Court for first-degree assault for stabbing a man three times in the abdomen on Arch Street during an altercation on July 28, 2008.
According to news accounts at the time, police affidavits said the fight was between eight men — four on each side — and was allegedly triggered by some stolen drug money. The victim recovered. Perkins was initially indicted by a Belknap County grand jury for one count of attempted murder and one count of first-degree assault. Matthew Perkins He pleaded guilty to first(Laconia Police photo) degree assault and was sentenced by Judge Kathleen McGuire to serve four to 10 years in the New Hampshire State Prison. In February of 2012, Perkins petitioned the court to be paroled one year earlier. Citing his exemplary discipline record in prison and stating he couldn’t get access to the mandated anger-management program in prison, he agreed to complete the program. He was granted early parole on February 23, 2012 by Judge James O’Neill. It is not known if he completed the program but at the time of his most recent arrest he listed his address at Methuen, Mass.

Red Sox end home stand by collecting 18 hits in completing sweep of San Diego BOSTON (AP) — Dustin Pedroia has been in the heart of Boston’s batting order during its strong start. His play was on the mind of San Diego manager Bud Black before the game. Pedroia hit a two-run double to jump-start Boston’s 18-hit effort, David Ortiz had a two-run single and the Red Sox wrapped up a big homestand by beating San Diego 8-2 Thursday, sending the Padres to their season-high sixth straight loss. “He’s been in the middle of this offense from Day One and continues to be so,” Red Sox manager John Farrell said of Pedroia, who raised his average to .325 by going 2 for 4. Brandon Snyder and Jacoby Ellsbury each had solo homers for the Red Sox. Boston went 8-1 at Fenway Park to match its best homestand since June 2010. The Red Sox also won for the 12th time in its last 14 games at home. The AL East leaders improved to
19 games over .500 (53-34). Sitting in his uncomfortably warm office about two hours before the game, Black praised the play of Pedroia. It didn’t take long for the Red Sox second baseman to make him look good. “Pedroia might be the MVP of the league so far. I think you can make a case for it,” he said. Pedroia’s two-run double in the first moved Boston ahead 2-0. Ellsbury singled leading off to extend his season-high hitting streak to 14 games and Shane Victorino doubled off the Green Monster before Pedroia doubled into the left-field corner. “What we’re seeing of late is he’s starting to pull the ball,” Farrell said. “It’s a byproduct of getting pitched in a little more because he’s gotten so many hits the other way. We know that when either an offspeed pitch stays in the middle of the plate or a fastball’s in the inner part of the plate, he’s always been a dead-pull hitter in those locations of pitches.”

The 2008 AL MVP just feels like he’s taking a simple approach each time he steps to the plate. “I feel good,” he said. “It depends if the ball’s in. I’m trying to hit the ball where it’s pitched. If I’m pulling the ball, it means they’re throwing it in a little more. That’s it.” The Padres have scored just seven runs in their losing streak. They also lost for the 10th time in 12 games. “They know what’s ahead of them. They know what the challenge is,” Black said after the game. “This is the part of the season, part of the summer where it’s hot, it’s hot for everybody. You’ve got to keep pushing through. We were swept in this series. We’ve swept some teams to get back in the race in the west, but our guys know what’s in front of them.”
Muskrats road woes continue at North Adams; home game tonight at 6:30 NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — The Muskrats recent road woes continued when they lost 6-4 to the Steeplejacks in an Independence Day game last night.

First baseman Ryan McBroom (West Virginia) had 3 hits for the Muskrats, including his first home run of the season. Designated hitter Taylor Drake (McNeese State) and second baseman Tyler Campbell (Vanderbilt) both had a couple of hits. Pitching in relief of starter Nevin Wilson (Vanderbilt) in the ill-fated seventh, Hayden White (East Carolina) got the loss. Wilson gave up just three hits over six and a third but walked five batters.

For Muskrats’ pitching coach Demko it’s all about strikes By RogeR Amsden FOR THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
for URI, following a year in which he had struck out 55 in 43 innings while walking only seven hitters. For the last two years Demko has been the pitching coach at Fort Scott Community College in Fort Scott, Kans., and says he’s pleased to be back at his alma mater. ‘’It’s exciting. URI is a Division I team that has made it to the college tournament 12 years in a row,’’ says Demko. whose ambition is to someday be the head coach of an elite college baseball program like that at Vanderbillt, which contends annually for the college baseball crown. Demko says that he’s enjoying his summer in the Lakes Region, where he gets to see family and friends. His dad, Alan, is a member of the Gilford School Board and former business administrator for the Winnisquam Regional School District. The 2004 Gilford graduate turned in a 21-4 record with a 1.21 earned run average over his career at Gilford High School, where he was a two-time Class M First Team All-State selection. He threw a perfect game as a senior against Winnisquam Regional High School and hold Gilford’s all time strikeout record (366). He was was named team MVP as a sophomore, junior and senior and also was a two-time All-State basketball and soccer player and helped the Golden Eagles basketball team to the Class M title his senior year. Demko credits his high school baseball coach, John Lord, with teaching him how to pitch. ‘’He taught me to be patient and how to keep in shape and improve my game.’’ An imposing 6 feet 6 inches and weighLuke Demko, pitching coach for the Laconia Muskrats, watches play in this file photo taken earlier ing 260 pounds, Demko’s fastball topped this season.

LACONIA — Luke Demko, now in his second year as pitching coach for the Laconia Muskrats, says that he tells the young pitchers that he is working with that the most important thing they can do is throw strikes. ‘’A first pitch strike is the most important pitch you can throw. And you have to have confidence in all your pitches, so that you can throw any one of them for a strike,’’ says Demko, who says that something seems to be working as the Muskrats pitchers have racked up more strikeouts than any other team in the New England Collegiate Baseball League. They’ve also hit more batters than any other pitching staff, which Demko says is in part because of the Muskrats’ pitching style. ‘’We pitch inside a lot so we can use the whole plate,’’ says Demko, who says that he spends a lot of time working with the pitching staff on control and how to use their bodies to get the smooth, fluid motion they need to succeed on the mound. ‘’Our guys are on a pitch count. We want to keep them healthy so that when they return to their college programs they’re ready and not worn out.’’ he says. Demko is no stranger to the collegiate league, having pitched two summers for the Sanford Mainers while he was in college. The former three-sports star at Gilford High School recently got the good news that as of this fall he will be the pitching coach for the University of Rhode Island, where he holds the URI single-season save record with 11. Demko set that record in 2009 when Muskrats, has been named pitching coach at the University of Rhode Island, where he set records as he struck out 44 hitters in 33 innings relief pitcher in 2009.

Stingers LRFFL Women’s League Super Bowl champs The Stingers of the Lakes Region Flag Football League’s have claimed their second consecutive Women’s League Super Bowl Championship. Last Friday night, the league held its Playoff and Super Bowl games. The women-only version of our exciting NFLFlag youth league Fall & Spring program (boys & girls ages 4-17), the LRFFL’s women’s league had a total of six teams participating in its second spring season. Under threatening skies, our women’s teams participated in some very intense and competitive flag football games that were played on the Inter-Lakes High School turf field. The top 4 teams made the playoffs, with the #1 Seed Beavers taking on the #4 Seed Busters, and the #2 Seed Stingers battling the #3 Seed Frog Rock team to see which two teams would advance to the Super Bowl game. The rain managed to hold off until the first round games were just about complete, but began to come down steadily in-between the break between the Playoffs and Super Bowl see STINGERS page 24
from preceding page lege, where he averaged 90-93 miles and hour and had a K-rating of 98 according to the Baseball Cub’s statistics analysis. In 2009 he was drafted by the San Francisco Giants in the 29th round and was ready to board an airplane which would take him from Arizona to Oregon to start his pro baseball career for the Giants Single-A affiliate there when he got word that a mandatory MRI showed a small tear in his throwing elbow. The Giants were concerned enough that they decided not to sign him, even though Demko felt no pain in his elbow. He ended up pitching that year for the Newark Bears of the independent Atlantic League, where former Red Sox pitchers Keith Foulke and Ramiro Mendoza and outfielder Carl Everett were playing. ‘’It was quite an experience. Foulke showed me how he threw his change-up. There were other guys there like Scott Wiliamson, who once closed for the Red Sox, and Armando Benitez, an 11-time All Star.

I-L Angels win tournament trophy MEREDITH — The Inter-Lakes Angels won the Plymouth Tournament the weekend of June 21-23. They won five games and gave up just five runs. The team was lead by the stellar pitching of Julia Gintof, Delanie Fletcher and Jordan Durand. Jordan Jones was amazing in center field. Other standout players included Morgan White, Jessalyn Brown, Emma Wheeler, Hailey Hart, Makena Kimball, Savannah Keyes and Mollie Durand.
They treated me really well, took me out to dinner with them, and taught me a lot. It was a lot of fun and those guys were real helpful,’’ says Demko. He made 14 appearances for Newark that year, striking out 25 in 31.1 innings and made one start in which he allowed just one earned run in five innings to earn his first professional win. But he was later traded to the Wichita Wingnuts, where he was billed as a possible closer, but when the Wingnuts wanted to trade him the next spring he decided to look for another way to be involved with baseball and took a job as an instructor at a Texas baseball camp. Demko says he’s having fun working with the young pitchers on the Muskrats staff and he’s aware of what a crushing experience it can be for a young pitcher to suffer an injury which puts his professional baseball career in jeopardy. ‘’We try to be very protective of these young pitchers and bring them along in a measured way,’’ says Demko.

LACONIA — A candlelight vigil to honor the memory of the 19 firefighters who died this week while battling a wild fire in Arizona has been scheduled for this Sunday evening.

GILMANTON — On Thursday, July 11 at 7 p.m., the Gilmanton Year-Round Library, with support from the New Hampshire Humanities Council, will present the program, Laconia State School, Understanding Our Past to Create a Better Future for People with Disabilities. The event will be held at the Year-Round Library, opposite the Gilmanton school.. Opened in 1903 and closed in 1991, the Laconia State School, located on Parade Road in Laconia, was the state’s only residential institution for children and adults labeled “feebleminded.” For many of these people their entire lives were spent isolated from their families, friends and their communities. New Hampshire was representative of many states that institutionalized people with disabilities because it was felt they were better off living in large state run institutions, segregated from the larger society. Using an extensive collection of slides, artifacts and video taped oral histories, the program will trace the
evolution and growth of this institution. The presentation will provide insight into the principal features of society’s values and changes in those values during the twentieth century. It will connect Laconia State School’s institutional history with larger social ideals and principles, leading to national trends and social policy. Particular attention will be paid to the eugenics period and the social inclusion movement, which led to the eventual closing of the institution. The presenter, Gordon DuBois, worked at the Laconia State School from 1979-1991. He has been an adjunct faculty member at the University of Southern Maine, University of New Hampshire, and the New Hampshire Community Colleges. He has lectured extensively on this topic throughout New Hampshire and in several other states. DuBois was the primary archivist for the Laconia State School History Project. He has also collected a number of taped oral histories of people who lived and worked at the institution.

Clean Water Assn. film to air Saturday on Ch. 11
LACONIA — Clearing The Water, the story of the Lakes Region Clean Waters Association, can be seen Saturday, July 6 at 8 p.m. on Channel 11 New Hampshire Public Television. “Clearing the Water” tells the story of a group of citizens taking action to clean up New Hampshire’s Lake Winnisquam back in the early 1970s. Their actions led to the construction of a major waste water treatment plant in Franklin that serves 10 communities in the Lakes Region. The Clean Waters Association then went on to other issues that keep New Hampshire Lakes clear and inviting. Many of the people involved and instrumental in the LRCWA were interviewed for this documentary, including William Ruckleshaus, first administrator of the federal Environmental Protection Agency. The EPA made one of its first grants to move along the work of the Clean Water Association. It also presented the association with the first EPA Environmental Protection Award in 1975. This fifty minute documentary was produced by John Gfroerer and Accompany Video Production of Concord.

Playhouse presents Sherlock Holmes adventure MEREDITH — The world’s greatest detective, Sherlock Holmes makes his debut performance at the Winnipesaukee Playhouse this summer. Holmes has seemingly reached the end of his career when a case presents itself that’s too tempting to ignore. The Winnipesaukee Playhouse presents Sherlock Holmes: The Final Adventure by Steven Dietz, winner of the 2007 Edgar Award for Best Mystery Play, through July 13. “Sherlock Holmes: The Final Adventure” will be directed by Neil Pankhurst, one of the Playhouse’s four founding members. The cast consists of familiar faces to Playhouse audiences including Jonathan Weber, Alex Jacobs, Kevin Killavey, Nicholas Wilder, AJ Ditty, Richard Brundage, Rebecca Turner, and Donna Schilke. Pankhurst says, “Sherlock Holmes never left the public’s imagination since the character was created in the 1890s, but he probably hasn’t been any more popular in his 125-year history than the past five years. With two films starring Robert Downey Jr, the BBC/PBS series starring Benedict Cumberbatch, the new CBS series “Elementary” starring Jonny Lee Miller (as well as all the Sherlock connections with the medical drama House), there seems to be more interest than ever in this iconic detective. This version of two of Conan Doyle’s stories has all the
most important elements and characters one would hope to see in a Sherlock Holmes story. So Holmes’ nemesis Moriarty is there to try to destroy him, his faithful right-hand man Watson is there for support, and the only woman in Holmes’ life, Irene Adler, is there to not only be saved but to fall in love with also. If you enjoy the Sherlock Holmes genre you will love this show.” “Sherlock Holmes: The Final Adventure” will be the second play of the summer season performed at the brand new Winnipesaukee Playhouse campus in Meredith. The Summer 2013 season is generously sponsored by Meredith Village Savings Bank and Laconia Harley-Davidson. “Sherlock Holmes: The Final Adventure” is further supported by the generous sponsorship of Mill Falls Inns and Marketplace and Gilford Home Center. It is recommended for ages 12 and above. Performances will be held Mondays through Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. with a 2 p.m. matinee on Monday. The Wednesday, July 10, a post-show discussion and Q & A with the cast and crew. Tickets can be ordered by calling (603) 279-0333 or by using a credit card at www.winniplayhouse. org. Student rush tickets will also be available at the door the night of the performance for $17 and are subject to availability.

ting go of some of that control. Unless you trust the other person, it’s very uncomfortable. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). There is satisfaction to be mined from small gains. But you have to be willing to accept the gift. A winning attitude will include tracking and celebrating the minor advancements. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’re moving quickly through the landscape today. When one vista loses its mystique, you are on to the next view. Will it be more beautiful than the last? Maybe not, but it doesn’t matter. It will be new. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Is it cynical to think that no one cares what you can do because they only care what you can do for them? Maybe. But it’s also practical to understand this piece of human nature. You’ll turn it to your advantage. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 5). You’ll build relationships slowly, step by step, which is perfect, so don’t become impatient. A friendship that solidifies this month leads to August adventure. Someone likes the way your mind works and pays you well for it in September. Step in and save the day for family in October. December and February bring money luck. Pisces and Aries people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 1, 22, 38 and 18.
TUNDRA
HOROSCOPE ARIES (March 21-April 19). When are you going to get the chance to do what you love again? You know, that thing that sends exuberance buzzing through your body as more of a sensation than an emotion. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You have the gift of seeing the complete picture of who people are. You appreciate beautiful people, but if someone proves unkind or thoughtless, beauty drains quickly from view. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The group needs you now. You’ll protect the defenseless, balance the energy of intense people, tend to the lonely and serve the helpless. You’ll also detect ulterior motives and be on guard against abuses of power. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’re talented, but you don’t want others to think of you only in this way. You identify more strongly with your common heritage of being a friend, a family member and a human than with your specialness of being a gifted person. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Being around someone who loves you can be a treat. You can feel the energy of that love, and you bask in it. Of course, sometimes it’s too much. Like most treats, it’s better enjoyed in small doses. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Offer your opponent nothing to resist, and they cannot react against you. But what if the opponent is inside you, a persistent voice feeding you lies and misinformation? Ignoring it could make it go away. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). If you insist on only one way of proceeding, you will eventually come to a wall and be stopped. So don’t be obstinate. Be open to new solutions, and you’ll avoid the impasse. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Ask any babysitter, and they’ll tell you that what seems like an emergency to a child is but a passing annoyance to a more seasoned individual. In the course of this day, you will play both roles. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You want to feel firmly in control, but of course that won’t work in the context of a relationship. Sharing with another person means let-

––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Friday, July 5, the 186th day of 2013. There are 179 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On July 5, 1943, the Battle of Kursk began during World War II as German forces attacked a Soviet salient (or bulge) around the Russian city of Kursk; in the weeks that followed, the Soviets were able to repeatedly repel the Germans, who eventually withdrew in defeat. On this date: In 1687, Isaac Newton first published his Principia Mathematica, a three-volume work setting out his mathematical principles of natural philosophy. In 1811, Venezuela became the first South American country to declare independence from Spain. In 1865, William Booth founded the Salvation Army in London. In 1935, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the National Labor Relations Act. In 1946, the bikini, created by Louis Reard (ray-AHRD’), was modeled by Micheline Bernardini during a poolside fashion show in Paris. In 1947, Larry Doby made his debut with the Cleveland Indians, becoming the first black player in the American League. In 1948, Britain’s National Health Service Act went into effect, providing government-financed medical and dental care. In 1954, Elvis Presley’s first commercial recording session took place at Sun Records in Memphis, Tenn.; the song he recorded was “That’s All Right (Mama).” In 1962, independence took effect in Algeria; the same day, civilians of European descent, mostly French, came under attack by extremists in the port city of Oran. In 1975, Arthur Ashe became the first black man to win a Wimbledon singles title as he defeated Jimmy Connors. In 1984, the Supreme Court weakened the 70-year-old “exclusionary rule,” deciding that evidence seized in good faith with defective court warrants could be used against defendants in criminal trials. In 2011, a jury in Orlando, Fla., found Casey Anthony, 25, not guilty of murder, manslaughter and child abuse in the 2008 disappearance and death of her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee. Ten years ago: Two female suicide bombers killed 15 victims at a Moscow rock festival. A bomb blast in Ramadi killed seven Iraqi police recruits as they graduated from a U.S.-taught training course. Serena Williams beat sister Venus 4-6, 6-4, 6-2 for her second straight Wimbledon title. Five years ago: Venus Williams won her fifth Wimbledon singles title, beating younger sister Serena 7-5, 6-4 in the final. Gas station owner Kent Couch flew a lawn chair rigged with heliumfilled balloons more than 200 miles across the Oregon desert, landing in a field in Cambridge, Idaho. One year ago: Trucks carrying NATO supplies rolled into Afghanistan for the first time in more than seven months, ending a painful chapter in U.S.-Pakistan relations that saw the border closed until Washington apologized for an airstrike that killed 24 Pakistani soldiers. Jockey Jorge Herrera, 33, died after falling from his horse during a race at the Alameda County Fairgrounds.

STINGERS from page 14 game. Fortunately the lightning was holding off, although rumbles of thunder could be heard. The #1 Seed Beavers prevailed over the #4 Busters 32-12, and the #2 Stingers held off #3 Frog Rock 20-6, setting up a Super Bowl match-up between the #1 Beavers and the #2 Stingers. As the rain increased in intensity and the rumbles of thunder increased, the Stingers managed to score first and added a 1-point conversion. The Beavers marched down the field on their next possession and scored on a TD pass to make the score 7-6. On the ensuing 1-point conversion pass attempt to tie the score, the Beavers completed

the pass but the offense was offsides, negating the extra point and leaving the score standing at 7-6. In what was shaping up to be a scrappy melee, each team managed to get two more possessions in without reaching the end zone before the skies really opened up and began to “light up!” With two minutes left in the first half, play was halted for 15 minutes in the hope the lightning would clear out and the game could resume.

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Friday, July 5, 2013— Page 25
ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Annie: My grandmother died the day before I was scheduled for an important job interview. I’d received notice two weeks prior, and it said there would be no rescheduling of the interview for any reason whatsoever. If I failed to show up, I would be barred from being hired for another year. I was desperate for work, and when my father called to tell me my grandmother died, I told him I was sorry, but there was no way I could make it to the funeral in the morning, although I did go by his house to see him. I went to the interview (and was hired) and went to the house right after. Nobody said anything, but I could tell my family was disappointed. Since the funeral, my parents have been angry with me. I understand this, but work is scarce in my area, and I couldn’t afford to miss this opportunity. Frankly, if I were unemployed, I doubt my parents would give me any money, and it would be foolish to rely on that kind of help anyway. Besides, who wants to have to ask their parents for stuff when they’re 35 years old? I needed this job. I told my parents that my grandmother would rather I secure a job than attend her funeral. But now my relatives are saying nasty things about me behind my back. Was I right to skip the funeral in favor of a job interview? -- Downstate Illinois Dear Illinois: We understand why the job interview could not be postponed, especially for a full year. But we also know that your parents are hurt and maybe a bit embarrassed that their child didn’t show up for Grandma’s funeral. You need to apologize, but without simultaneously justifying and defending your choice. Simply say that you are truly sorry, and you hope they can forgive you. Then give them time to do that. Dear Annie: My daughter turned 16 last week. We asked her friends to come to her party, and no one showed up. She
was so upset. My daughter is in a special needs life skills classroom with 12 kids just like her. How can their parents be so cruel? It’s so unfair to my child. What can I do about this? -- Not So Sweet 16 Party Dear Not So Sweet: It’s very possible that these classmates felt uncomfortable attending your daughter’s party and lacked the social skills necessary to say so. Or, if your daughter invited them word-of-mouth, they might have forgotten or the parents were unaware of the time and date. The important thing is your response to your daughter. Please don’t turn this into a tragedy or a reason to badmouth her classmates. Instead, teach your daughter how to graciously cope with these disappointments and move forward. You might even try to reschedule a party for her over the summer, although you might first get in touch with the parents to be sure there are no additional difficulties. Dear Annie: This is in response to “Enlightened,” who threatened to throw her child’s things away if she didn’t pick them up. I was a messy daughter growing up, and my mother did exactly that. What she failed to see (and still does not) is that my messy ways, forgetfulness and “laziness” were the result of posttraumatic stress disorder due to years of emotional, sexual and physical abuse. Parents should be careful with how harshly they judge their children, as they are a result of how they are raised. Yelling, arguing and throwing things in garbage bags often do more harm than good. Look for the root cause. There may be more going on than meets the eye. Perhaps she’s being bullied at school or is stressed about grades. No one enjoys being messy. It makes our lives more difficult, as well. -- Shell-Shocked

Page 28 — THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Friday, July 5, 2013
JAIL from page one ing firm engaged by the commission to assist with the planning process, presented a conceptual plan for a two-story, 94,450-square-foot facility they estimated to cost $42.5-million. It would have 180 beds, plus five for inmates requiring medical care. A third of the beds — 44 for men and 16 for women — would be reserved for inmates awaiting trial, on work release, undergoing treatment or on electronic monitoring. The remaining 120 beds — 88 for men and 32 for women — would be allotted to maximum, medium, and minimum security inmates as well as those with special needs. The major feature of the project is the community corrections component, an array of therapeutic services, educational programs and vocational training to prepare inmates for a successful return to the community. Relying on the report of David Bennett, the first consultant to advise the commission, the commission stresses that the programmatic element of the facility will reduce the rate of recidivism and spiraling cost of incarceration. Rici Greene projected that operating the facility would require 49 full-time employees, 21 more than are currently on the payroll. Personnel costs, which are currently $1.6-million per year would climb by $2.7-million. The commission’s plan rests on two fundamental propositions. First, on the strength of an assessment of the jail undertaken by Rist-Frost Shumway Engineering and architect Gary Goudreau, which was confirmed by Bennett and Rici Greene, the commission is convinced that the existing jail should be demolished and a new one built. Second, the commission believes the community corrections component should be incorporated in the design and construction of new facility.

At the same time, the commissioners insist that the $42.5-million estimate for the project is excessive and that the facility can be constructed for much less. However, they contend that in order to determine how much less the project must be designed and engineered at cost of between $2-million and $3-million and intend to seek an appropriation from the convention. Greemore said a clear majority of the convention questions both the scale of the proposed facility and the need for the community corrections component.”I don’t think they’ve sold it very well, “ he said. “They’ve spent a lot of money, but they’re not where they need to be.” Greemore added that the commission had “pretty much cut us (the convention) out of the picture and have been closed-minded to whatever we’ve tried to do.” Tilton said that he believes there is unanimous
agreement among members of the convention that “there is a problem and something must be done about the facility, but there are lots of pockets of skepticism.” He said that before spending for design and engineering, the scope of the project should be defined in terms of “how much are we willing to pay for it.” Tilton, a retired colonel with the Army Corps of Engineers, said that he has yet to thoroughly review the facilities study, but before concluding that the existing jail is beyond repair and dismissing a plan to add to it he would seek a second opinion. Both Tilton and Greemore suggested that along with using part of the existing facility additional capacity could be constructed in stages. “I try to be open-minded,” said Rep. Herb Vadney (R-Meredith), who expressed his doubts that investsee next page
THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Friday, July 5, 2013— Page 29
from preceding page ing in rehabilitative services and programs would yield the projected results of reduced recidivism and lower costs. “There is just not a lot of evidence that it works,” he said. “But it would require more employees. You’re not doubling the number of beds, but you are doubling the number of employees.” Apart from misgivings about specific aspects of the project, Greemore and Vadney both referred to the frayed relations between the convention and the commission arising from the bitter dispute over the 2013 county budget and whether the commission has the legal authority to transfer funds between interdepartmental line items without convention approval. “They’re not willing to make concessions,” said Greemore. “It leaves such a sour taste in our mouths after all that’s happened. They kick us in the youknow what — then come asking for money.” Vadney noted that “there is a strong feeling in the convention that the commission has not been forthcoming with information. When you have to pull teeth like that it sets a bad tone.

Statue of Liberty opens for the first time post Sandy as U.S. salutes 237th Bday NEW YORK (AP) — The Statue of Liberty reopened on the Fourth of July, eight months after Superstorm Sandy shuttered the national symbol of freedom, as Americans around the country celebrated with fireworks and parades and President Obama urged citizens to live up to the words of the Declaration of Independence. Hundreds lined up Thursday to be among the first
to board boats destined for Lady Liberty, including New Yorker Heather Leykam and her family. “This, to us, Liberty Island, is really about a rebirth,” said Leykam, whose mother’s home was destroyed during the storm. “It is a sense of renewal for the city and the country. We wouldn’t have missed it for the world.”

MANDELA from page one (15 miles) apart. Fifteen Mandela family members pursued court action last week to force the grandson to move the bodies back to their original burial site. Mandla Mandela — the oldest male Mandela heir and a tribal chief — told a news conference on Thursday that his grandfather “would be highly disappointed in what is unraveling.” Retired archbishop Desmond Tutu appealed to the family of Mandela, also known by his clan name Madiba, to overcome their differences. “Please, please, please may we think not only of ourselves. It’s almost like spitting in Madiba’s face,” Tutu said in a statement released by a foundation he leads. “Your anguish, now, is the nation’s anguish — and the world’s. We want to embrace you, to support you, to shine our love for Madiba through you. Please may we

not besmirch his name.” Mlawu Tyatyeka, an expert on the Xhosa culture of Mandela’s family, said the court case over the graves was decided quickly because the family knows that Mandela will soon die. “It’s not a case of wishing him to die. It’s a case of making sure that by the time he dies, his dying wish has been fulfilled,” he said. “We have a belief that should you ignore a dying wish, all bad will befall you.” Meanwhile, Mandela’s wife said the former president is sometimes uncomfortable but seldom in pain while being treated in a hospital. Graca Machel spoke about her husband’s condition at a fundraising drive for a children’s hospital that will be named after Mandela. “Whatever is the outcome of his stay in hospital, that will remain the second time where he offered his nation an see next page
