Hosmer & Youssef highlight the gaps between them By Gail OBer
THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — The dramatic differences between Democratic Senate District 7 candidate Andrew Hosmer and Republican candidate Joshua Youssef played out last night during their second and final debate before a crowd of about 75 at New Hampshirie’s Historic Meeting House —
the Belkap Mill. The dabate was hosted by The Daily Sun and moderated by editor and president Ed Engler. Each man spent the 90 minutes trying to label the other, with Hosmer calling Youssef an “ideologue” while Youssef painted Hosmer in the tax-and-spend corner — even when they both agreed on
something. Both agreed that education is important, sick people need hospitals, and Lakes Region Community Services provides a necessary and efficient service for people with developmental disabilities. Where they disagree is how to pay for the services. see SENaTE 7 page 15

Exasperation builds on Day 3 in storm-stricken New York City NEW YORK (AP) — Frustration — and in some cases fear — mounted in New York City on Thursday, three days after Superstorm Sandy. Traffic backed up for miles at bridges, large crowds waited impatiently for buses into Manhattan, and tempers flared in gas lines. Mayor Michael Bloomberg said the city would send bottled water and ready-to-eat meals into the hardesthit neighborhoods through the weekend, but some New Yorkers grew dispirited after days without power, water and heat and decided to get out. “It’s dirty, and it’s getting a little crazy down there,” said Michael Tomeo, who boarded a bus to Philadelphia with his 4-year-old son. “It just feels like you wouldn’t want to be out at night. Everything’s pitch
dark. I’m tired of it, big-time.” Rima Finzi-Strauss decided to take the bus to Washington. When the power went out Monday night in her apartment building on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, it also disabled the electric locks on the front door, she said. “We had three guys sitting out in the lobby last night with candlelight, and very threatening folks were passing by in the pitch black,” she said. “And everyone’s leaving. That makes it worse.” The mounting despair came even as the subways began rolling again after a three-day shutdown. Service was restored to most of the city, but not the most stricken parts of Manhattan and Brooklyn, where the tunnels were flooded.
Bridges into the city were open, but police enforced a carpooling rule and peered into windows to make sure each car had at least three people. The rule was meant to ease congestion but appeared to worsen it. Traffic jams stretched for miles, and drivers who made it into the city reported that some people got out of their cars to argue with police. Rosemarie Zurlo said she planned to leave Manhattan for her sister’s place in Brooklyn because her own apartment was freezing, “but I’ll never be able to come back here because I don’t have three people to put in my car.” With only partial subway service, lines at bus stops swelled. More than 1,000 people packed the see NYC page 19
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — Rhode Island’s economic development agency on Thursday sued former Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling and some of its former officials, saying they committed fraud and other acts that misled the state into approving a $75 million loan guarantee to his failed video game company. The suit was filed in Rhode Island Superior Court four months after 38 Studios filed for bankruptcy following a spectacular collapse that has likely left the state on the hook for as much as $100 million. Among other things, the lawsuit claims that executives at 38 Studios, as well as former Economic Development Corp. Executive Director Keith Stokes and others, knew the company would run out of money by 2012, but concealed that from the EDC board, which made the final decision on whether to
back the deal. The board in 2010 lured 38 Studios to Providence from Massachusetts with the loan guarantee. The lawsuit also alleges that Schilling, 38 Studios executives and others engaged in racketeering and conspiracy. The suit does not ask for a specific dollar amount but wants Schilling and others to repay the bonds and seeks triple damages. In addition to Schilling, who founded the company, and Stokes, the suit names Michael Saul, a former top official at the EDC; two law firms that worked with the agency; a financial adviser for the state; Wells Fargo Securities and Barclays Capital, investment banks hired by the EDC to assist in issuing bonds for the deal; and an insurance company for see SCHILLING page 16
HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — The “conspiracy of silence” that protected Jerry Sandusky extended all the way to the top at Penn State, prosecutors said Thursday as they charged former university President Graham Spanier with hushing up child sexual abuse allegations against the former assistant football coach. Prosecutors also added counts against two of Spanier’s former underlings, Tim Curley and Gary Schultz, who were already charged with lying to a grand jury. “This was not a mistake by these men. This was not an oversight. It was not misjudgment on their
part,” said state Attorney General Linda Kelly. “This was a conspiracy of silence by top officials to actively conceal the truth.” Spanier’s lawyers issued a statement that asserted his innocence and described the new charges as an attempt by Gov. Tom Corbett to divert attention from the three-year investigation that began under his watch as attorney general. “These charges are the work of a vindictive and politically motivated governor working through an unelected attorney general ... whom he appointed to do his bidding,” the four defense lawyers wrote.
Rhode Island sues Curt Schilling over loan guarantee Judge orders Exeter Hospital to make patient records available to public health officials CONCORD (AP) — A hospital where a worker was accused of stealing drugs and infecting patients with hepatitis C through contaminated syringes must grant public health officials broad access to patient records, a judge ruled Thursday. Thirty-two Exeter Hospital patients have been diagnosed since May with the strain of hepatitis C carried by former cardiac lab technician David Kwiatkowski, whom prosecutors describe as a “serial infector.” While the criminal investigation continues, the state public health department has been conducting its own investigation into the outbreak. But the hospital, a 45-minute drive southeast of Concord, argued it would be violating state and federal law if it continued to allow unfettered access to its records system and asked a court to prohibit the state from accessing records unless it was more specific in its request. Merrimack County Superior Court Judge Richard McNamara, in denying the hospital’s motion, said state law does not prohibit investigators from seeing non-relevant information but rather requires that they acquire and retain only the minimum necessary information. The state “is not on a hunt for privileged inforsee HEPATITIS page 14

LETTERS Jeanie Forrester believes in creative solutions to fix education To the editor, Every letter I read in support of Bob Lamb’s candidacy for State Senate condemns Senator Jeanie Forrester for her record regarding education. This is the strategy of the Democrats when they have no good ideas of their own, slam the opponent and pick subjects that have broad appeal. I know Jeanie cares deeply about the children of New Hampshire and their education; I have talked with Jeanie one-on-one a number of times about this critical subject. I agree with Jeanie that education should be student focused and outcome driven. The U.S. is falling behind our global peers and the belief that the status quo in how we should approach primary and secondary public education in New Hampshire is as antiquated as the 18th century agrarian model our school year still runs by. Jeanie believes in creative solutions and a great example was her spearheading the school to work program through the Career Partnership Program here in Meredith. I think it’s important to correct some of the misstatements I’ve read about Jeanie’s record. First, Jeanie never signed on to the efforts to end kindergarten, that legislation never made it out of the House. Second, Jeanie did not support SB-300; the bill requiring school districts pay their transportation costs. Third, regarding School Building Aid, the fact is it was the current leg-
islators that took this program out of a two-year hibernation following the passage of SB-486 back in 2010. Finally, on the subject of cuts to the University System of New Hampshire, while Mr. Lamb sites the cuts as draconian and devastating, the reality is the $48.4-million reduction this year represents less then 5.3 percent of the $914 million operating budget for the University System of New Hampshire. Four years of double digit spending increases did nothing to slow the rising tuition costs here in New Hampshire, which is why Jeanie supports direct tuition assistance to help our children afford higher education. Our tax dollars should go directly to tuition and training, not to research and administrative costs. I endorse Jeanie’s position on the Education Tax Credit and find it hard to believe this legislation doesn’t have strong bipartisan support. This is all about giving parents choice on where their children are educated. Choice is a good, competition is a good and those who think this bill will financially hurt the public school system have not read the law. When you go to vote, please look at all the issues in a fair and balanced way and look at the character of the candidates. I believe Jeanie has served all of her constituents with honor and distinction; she has earned my vote and hopefully yours as well. Mark Billings Meredith
President Obama refuses to lead, negotiate and problem solve To the editor, For the past 100 years NO PRESIDENT has ever been re-elected to office with unemployment above 7.2 percent. When you vote next Tuesday unemployment will be about 8 percent. It has been 8 percent or higher almost every day since Obama was elected. There are still more people unemployed today than the day Obama took office. He says he created millions of jobs while forgetting to mention he LOST just about the same number. Unbelievably, some people are still considering a vote for Obama, defying the COMMON SENSE precedent set by our mothers, fathers and grandparents over generations. I ask them and I ask you if what we have seen under Obama for the last four years does not represent complete and total failure of the highest order what in God’s name does? Obama has been a one man wrecking ball of destruction to America on EVERY LEVEL economically and socially. Intransigent unemployment is just one negative side effect of what has been FAILED POLICY, FAILED DECISION making and failure to be the leader America so desperately needs. Economy: It survives anemically on Fed life support requiring 24/7 money printing stimulus in order to breathe. 2012 average economic growth is 1.7 percent. This years economic growth LOWER than 2011. 2011 economic growth lower than 2010. In baseball this would be like striking out 50 times in a row. During the same time period Ronald Regan created 1.2 trillion dollars more in GDP output than Obama
has, which supported brisk employment activity. The failure of Barack Obama is simply mind boggling. That anyone would still consider voting for such failure I find even more mind boggling. Hiring: Our countries corporations and businesses are paralyzed from Obama induced tax uncertainty and the impact of employee health care costs. Companies readily admit they are holding back hiring given the economic threats, political dysfunction and unknowns that hang above their heads like the sword of Damocles. Capital spending is on hold while global investment in America dries up with concerns over lack of leadership to resolve road blocks to progress. A record 42 million Americans are eating beans tonight on FOOD STAMPS for one reason: the president of the United States refuses to lead, negotiate and problem solve. He has been on the road for a year fund raising, flip flopping, demonizing and dividing America consumed with what deodorant Mitt Romney uses. All as America teeters on the brink of financial disaster eight weeks from a fiscal cliff of spending cuts and tax increases January 1st that every economist guarantees will put us back in recession if not reversed. Obama refuses to talk about the cliff, the future insolvency of Medicare and Social Security or the now bankruptcy of the U.S. Post Office. Could presidential failure be any clearer? Tony Boutin Gilford
LETTERS Imperfect selves living in an imperfect world, we must keep trying To the editor, In the face and the wake of an astonishingly vicious campaign season, at all levels of office, we think it is important to remind ourselves that in the end we are all Americans. Many of our local and state officials bring their own education and experiences to an office that does not pay them much if anything and they give so much of their personal time, knowledge and energy in order to serve their respective communities. They contribute to what is the true essence of democracy. We are all imperfect selves living in
an imperfect world. We must just keep trying. Remember that when you vote or NOT, when you go to or MISS a public meeting — remember to be grateful for the freedoms you have and to thank those who represent YOU. They want your constructive input. Help them represent you and pray for civility at all levels. Never take your freedom for granted. Freedom comes with a certain responsibility, We all must try together. We are, in the end, all on the same side. Tracy & John Tramontano Gilford
Philpot fostered working relationships between levels of gov’t To the editor, Ed Philpot has been Belknap County Commissioner for the last four years, and I think other commissioners during that time would agree that he has provided vision and leadership while collaborating on a bi-partisan basis with his colleagues. Ed puts the well-being of the county up front and has helped develop a new strategic plan for the county looking at the long term needs of Belknap County and balancing them with the financial constraints and challenges of today. We need his voice again at the table. Continuity of leadership is criti-
cal. During Ed’s tenure, relationships with the local towns has improved, thanks to the regular County Conversations that have been held each year. Understanding the role and contribution made by each level of government in Belknap County has been clarified so that there are good working partnerships between them all. We need to continue to foster good working relationships, effective and transparent conversations that are in our mutual best interests. Please support Ed and vote for him on November 6. Elizabeth “Liz” Merry Laconia
Balance of power at Supreme Court in jeopardy on November 6 To the editor, Former N.H. Attorney General Phil McLaughlin spoke at our Belknap County Democrats’ 6th Annual Doris “Granny D” Haddock Evening. So forcefully and emotionally and with factual supports, he laid out for us the importance of this presidential election. Our U.S. Supreme Court is clearly divided along conservative/ non-conservative lines. If President Obama doesn’t get to choose the next justices, but Mitt Romney does, we will see a seven-two split on so many issues that will be lost to justice but put into the “wins” column for conser-
vatives. If for no other reason than the preservation of our system that relies on balance-of-power, we need President Obama re-elected. To lose Roe V. Wade will jeopardize women’s lives, as we slide backwards to illegal and unsafe abortions. The women of the rich will always have their safe abortions somewhere; poor and middleclass women will be discards. Please go to the polling place on November 6 and vote for securing justice for all. Vote to re-elect President Obama. Lynn Rudmin Chong Sanbornton
Intolerance of the left will make Romney all win the more satisfying To the editor, I just came inside from playing with my three year old today (October 23). The time was 4:45 p.m. We were playing in our yard on highland street here
in Plymouth. I have Romney/Ryan signs in my yard. A car drove by and a male yelled out his window, “Romney’s going to lose, (expletive).” My three see next page

LETTERS Sen. Forrester is a fiscal conservative with Main Street ideas To the editor, I have read with some interest a few letters in the paper recently regarding Senator Jeanie Forrester. There have been numerous events and forums in the past few weeks open to the public at which Senator Forrester spoke. I personally attended three of these events. She articulated her positions very well and answered questions from the floor at two of these events. In addition, on her website she states her positions on a wide range of issues. The senator’s voting record is a matter of public information and is available on the New Hampshire General Court website. How anyone cannot know or understand her position on the issues is beyond me. In the last two years, I have contacted the senator with questions on certain bills before the Senate. She has responded to my inquiries by
either e-mail or phone. I have found that Senator Forrester does a great deal of research on every bill, including asking constituents for input, and reading all of the proposed legislation prior to voting--unlike some folks that need to pass a bill in order to “find out what is in it”. Senator Jeanie Forrester is a fiscal conservative with “Main Street” ideas and ties to her work in Plymouth and Meredith. This is in sharp contrast to her opponent with “elitist” ideas and ties to “Wall Street”. Senator Forrester has demonstrated time and again her commitment to local constituents and small business owners in the area. Let’s keep New Hampshire going in the right direction! Join me in voting to re-elect Jeanie Forrester to the New Hampshire State Senate. Duane Brown Wentworth
We are already on the right track – we don’t need Mitt Romney To the editor, President Hoover was a very successful businessman and a self-made millionaire. However, he was not successful as president in a down economy. Mitt Romney was a successful businessman and a millionaire. He held only one elected position which was a one term governor in Massachusetts. While he was governor his state was ranked 47th out of 50 states in the production of jobs. He has surrounded himself with advisors from the Bush years. Need I say more? “We don’t need Mitt Romney”. On the topic of energy, the United States just passed Saudi Arabia in production of oil. We are importing less and using less. “We don’t need Mitt Romney”. On taxes, does cutting government income help the deficit? Mitt Romney
says he will offset the tax breaks for the rich by cutting loop holes in the tax code. Which ones? Charitable donations? Mortgage interest? State and local taxes? He won’t answer. “We don’t need Mitt Romney”. On equal pay for women, he won’t answer. “We don’t need Mitt Romney”. On issues important to the middle class, Mitt Romney’s base is consistent. Consider the following: Repeal Affordable Care Act, change Medicare to a voucher system, slash Medicaid, privatize Social Security, repeal the minimum wage law, slash programs for the poor. “We don’t need Mitt Romney”. Do you know what Mitt Romney really stands for? He has changed so many times the only consistent see next page

To the editor, Republicans and Democrats alike should be incensed at the haste with our president went back on the campaign trail after four Americans were killed in Bengahazi. America and the world needed someone to help us face the grief which was suddenly thrust upon us. Weeks later we still wait for the leader of our great country to speak to the impact of four great Americans being killed in such a horrific manner. President Oboma couldn’t wait to take his gifted eloquence and comedy hour on the road where he could be a “pal” to his constituents on talk shows etc. During World War 2, I was standing
in the Navy Yard in Oakland, Calif. talking with other sailors when the announcement came over the speaker that Pres. Roosevelt had died. We were stunned, and most of us cried. His was the voiced we heard over the radio that the Japanese had bombed Pearl Harbor. His was the assuring voice the millions of military personnel constantly heard. President Roosevelt was our Commander in Chief! Like the modern navy which has no link with the old time navy, so the modern president so no link with the Old Time President. Sadly we have no Commander in Chief! The Rev. William H. Atkinson Meredith
Senator Forrester believes in our public education system To the editor, As a retired teacher, school principal, and now serving as an elected N.H. representative serving on the N.H. House Education Committee, I appreciate Jeanie Forrester’s active support for K-12 education. Her opponent, Bob Lamb, has falsely claimed that Senator Forrester signed on to efforts to end kindergarten. This is absolutely not the case, as the kindergarten bill was killed in the House and never received consideration or action in the Senate. Senator Jeanie Forrester believes in our public education system. She is the first in her family to graduate from college, working as a secretary by day and community college student at night. She went on to complete her MBA at the Whittemore School of Business and Economics. She believes that public education is a key to N.H.’s business advantage and that all students should have the opportunity to receive an education that prepares each to be career and college ready.
Senator Jeanie Forrester’s attendance at local selectboard meetings and willingness to assist Haverhill in resolving unique town issues is appreciated. Her prior experience in municipal government is an absolute resource. It is important that our elected officials understand and support meaningful legislation that positively impacts those they represent. Jeanie has fought to protect and strengthen property owner rights impacted by the Northern Pass Project. She worked tirelessly to pass a balanced state budget while reducing government debt. During this difficult economic climate, Jeanie knows that jobs are a product of effective education and small business growth, not increased taxation. I encourage New Hampshire residents to support Jeanie Forrester in her re-election to Senate District 2; her experience and demonstrated leadership matter! Rick Ladd N.H. Representative, Grafton County Haverhill Selectman
from preceding page point is he wants to be president. Is it severely conservative Mitt or is it Moderate Mitt? I think it is Slick Mitt trying to deceive the American people. “We don’t need Mitt Romney”. Growth has been steady. We have added jobs for 30 consecutive months.
The stock market has nearly doubled. New housing starts have increased by 15 percent. Gas prices are dropping. Stores are predicting a very good holiday season. We are on the right track. “We don’t need Mitt Romney”! Paul Bonneville Lochmere (Tilton)

LETTERS John Sununu’s comments insult anyone with IQ greater than 75 To the editor, I’m getting real tired of you John Sununu insulting my president by his shallow-minded theories and jabs. You have inferred he is not an American but he is more of an American than you are. He was born here and you weren’t. As a matter of fact do you have legal papers and how many time has anyone even asked you. You also appear to be enjoying your jabs at him along with your subtle race baiting. The fact that you are a racist is obvious and that to is another insult to me and my family. The reason being is that along with many others from New Hampshire and New England WE fought in the Civil War, remember that one? I doubt it. Many of my family died defending
the rights of freedom. So, try to keep your comments to yourself as they insult anyone with an IQ over 75. So you think President Obama is lazy too? He does more in one morning than you do in a day but I do realize you are a lot older than he is. You must remember when you were Washington working for the first Bush as Chief of Staff. But since you spent most of your time flying off on the private jet to ski trips etc and using the limo to drive to New York for that stamp show you have probably forgotten. Is that the reason you were fired and run out of town? Don’t forget the $500,000 you still owe the tax payers from those private trips. Jon Hoyt Franklin
Omer Ahern has been with Northern Pass fight the whole way To the editor, I implore everyone who is against the Northern Pass to vote to re-elect Omer Ahern as Grafton County Commissioner. Omer has been with us the whole way with no equivocating. Omer made himself available to attend events, informational meetings, speaking functions and he most recently assisted at the Deerfield State Fair manning a No Northern Pass informational booth when asked to do so at the eleventh hour. He has never claimed his “plate is too full” as other politicians have when asked to extend themselves. Further, Omer has not only joined us in our ongoing fight, he has taken his role further by demonstrating true leadership.
Two examples of his leadership are resolutions he was instrumental in getting passed by the New Hampshire Grange and the Grafton County New Hampshire Farm Bureau. In their respective resolutions, both organizations stated that they are against the Northern Pass. It is also important to note that Omer is not personally affected by this project, but rather acts based on his own research and his constituent’s needs. Omer is a true public servant, who always acts in the public good, which includes looking for innovative ways to achieve results in Grafton County government while keeping spending in check. We need to keep Omer fighting for us. George Wright Campton
Lengthy volunteer effort qualifies Herb Vadney for NH House To the editor, I am pleased to support the election on Herb Vadney, who is candidate in District 2 (Meredith-Gilford) for the N.H. Legislature on November 6. I first met Herb in 1995 when he became a member of the Routes 3/25 Task Force, of which I was appointed chair by the selectmen. This was fine group of 15 volunteers. After four long years and 75 meetings we had thoroughly evaluated the features and positive and negative impacts of a DOT proposal to run a 5-lane highway through Meredith, including its waterfront. At this time I shifted the focus to the whole project instead of its details. Herb made a very astute statement summarizing toward a negative outcome. This comment led
quickly to a unanimous vote to declare to DOT that the project was unacceptable to Meredith. The selectmen concurred and notified DOT. Subsequently, I have observed Herb as chair of the Planning Board intermittently over 10 years. His military engineering 27-year career and his pleasant but tough-minded personality made him a fine leader of this important civic committee. He then resigned from that job and was elected a selectman in 2011. I believe that this lengthy volunteer effort on behalf of the Town of Meredith qualifies him well for representing the district in the New Hampshire House and endorse his election on November 6. Dr. Frederick Hatch Meredith
Bob Lamb’s comments about Forrester’s record are misleading To the editor, When Bob Lamb says Jeanie Forrester “cut N.H.’s education budget in half,” he’s being misleading. The University System of New Hampshire has an enormous budget, $914 million. The Legislature historically contributed about 10-12 percent of that. The final budget reduced the legislature’s contribution to 6 percent — which is certainly not the same as cutting the total budget in half. It is important to remember that the current Legislature was faced with an $800+ million deficit from four years of overspending. Tough choices were
necessary in order to balance the budget (which is required by N.H.’s Constitution, by the way). USNH made the decision to increase tuition rather than make cuts in other areas. And remember, even during the four years of double-digit state spending, tuition was still going up. USNH educators, who got an 8.5-percent raise, are paid the national average. Professors earn about $70,000 to $130,000 for nine months’ work. Many get a paid year off every seven years. The money was spent on bricks ($234 million over 12 years) and salaries, not on direct see next page

LETTERS People who know Deb Chase support her despite party labels
Youssef is a problem-solver with family roots in Lakes Region
To the editor, Spend even a short time with Deb Chase as she campaigns for the N.H. House of Representatives and you may be amazed, as I was recently. Strategically positioned at the entrance or exit to the Gilmanton or Alton dump, Deb hands out literature and talks about issues with anyone who has the time to say more than “hello.” Some just wave or give a “thumbs up.” As one man drove by and shouted, “You know you have my vote, Deb,” I said, “Isn’t he a Republican?” “Yes,” Deb responded. “But he knows me.” This is the significant fact about Deb Chase: People who know her, and know that she is a Democrat, will support her regardless of a party label. Those who know her agree that Deb is one of the smartest, hardest-working, most practical and pragmatic people you will find involved in public life. Deb approaches politics with an eagerness to share her thoughts and learn from others. She engages people
with all points of view. She is a great listener as well as a persuasive proponent of her positions. Even those who do not agree with her 100 percent of the time respect her for her reasoned approach. No one doubts that when she has made a commitment, she will keep it. As a result of recent redistricting, Deb’s District 5 includes both Gilmanton and Alton. We in Gilmanton know Deb well. The voters of Alton are getting to know her quickly. In both Gilmanton and Alton she has gained support from both Democrats and Republicans. In both Gilmanton and Alton voters know that she will always listen to their concerns and will be most effective in representing their town. District 5 voters who have not yet gotten to know Deb Chase, I urge you to do so and to give her your support. We will be proud of her as our representative in the N.H. House. Judy Wagner Gilmanton
To the editor, Have you thought about the N.H. State Senate race in District 7? Let me lay out a few reasons why I believe Josh Youssef will make a great State Senator. Josh is a problem solver. He started his own business and has the first hand knowledge on how a start up can be successful. So when he votes in the State Senate, you can feel safe he will not hurt business. The reason why this is so important is because small business is the job engine of the economy. He will be part of the solution not the problem. He understands the question of government has always been; what is the role of government? He will stand up to dreadful ideas that others will package as we must do. Someone has

Neither can our state. It’s time for Lamb to learn what budgets mean to students who must pay ever-rising tuition. Jacqueline Colthart Ashland
to ask the tough questions in Concord. I know Josh will do this because he is a man of the people and wants to make difference. Josh has deep family roots to the Lakes Region. Have you’ve been to Stewart’s Park in Laconia? I’m sure you have, it was named after his grandfather on his mum’s side. His father has been an educator and business owner in Lakes Region for over 30 plus years. Josh is a native of New Hampshire who was born and raised in the area he will represent. He will be a fighter in Concord who will serve his constituents well. I ask you to consider voting for Josh Youssef on Nov 6th. Tom Brown, Jr., Laconia
Conservatives have resorted to old tactic of divide and conquer To the editor, On January 29th 2009, as Barack H. Obama was being sworn in as the 44th President of the United States of America, conservatives vowed to oppose him on everything and made destroying him politically their number one priority. Rush Limbaugh threw down the gauntlet and declared, “I hope Obama fails”, and these became the marching orders of his conservative right-wing minions. To achieve their goal, conservatives resorted to the age-old strategy of divide and conquer. This division of people is intentional and has been the most successful ploy used by those
seeking power and the right-wing conservatives had everything to gain by portraying Obama as being divisive and a wide-eyed radical. In attempting to destroy the president, the conservatives resorted to the “Big Lie”; a lie so colossal that no one would believe that someone could have the impudence to distort truth so infamously. In the case of conservatives, it is a number of lies that culminate into the “Big Lie”. As Joseph Goebbels stated, “Tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.” The lies begin, with twice as many see next page

LETTERS Politics is a dirty business – but it doesn’t have to be that way To the editor, Politics is a dirty business these days and that’s a shame because it really doesn’t have to be that way. I am writing this letter to the voters of Meredith and Gilford to make the final case for giving me and the other three Democrats (Kate Miller, Lisa DiMartino & Bill Johnson) your vote for state representative. Our slogan is “Team Work not Tea Party Work”, which has both negative and positive connotations. I would have like to see more venues like the candidates evening at the Meredith Center Grange where voters had a chance to listen to all the candidates answer questions on issues important to our two towns, the Lakes Region and the state. The differences were stark and the choices clear based on issues, not innuendo, personal attacks or out of state influences. Unfortunately, the current political climate which treats even very local politics as a game rather than a process prevented the Republicans from agreeing to additional public meetings. This was a loss for everyone, particularly the electoral process. I am certain everyone reading this has been inundated with information regarding the qualifications of all the candidates in the race. It is difficult to sort through all the data points to determine what is true. Rather than
reiterating the negatives and positives of the issues I would like to leave you with a quick story which I hope will give you a little insight into what I value. Last week my dog and I drove the two miles from my home to the Waukewan Highlands Park off Parade Road. A family illness had recently embroiled me with doctors and hospitals and decisions which had depleted me in all ways. This has been the most spectacular fall in my memory and I felt myself being renewed on multiple levels as I soaked up the beauty of the time and place. As I walked along, from time to time I noticed the blaze of blue paint that prevented me from losing my way. Each time I saw the mark I thought “thank you”. Yes thank you to the volunteers (Conservation Commission and others) who created and maintain these trails for public enjoyment. Thank you to the community leaders and other citizens that understood the value of public spaces and had the foresight and will to create and maintain this natural beauty for all to enjoy. While words often fail me, a walk in the woods on a warm fall day never has. I would love the opportunity to add my voice to the conversation in Concord. Thank you for voting. Sandra J.

To the editor, I attended Tuesday’s State Senate Candidate Forum in Meredith, put on by the New Hampshire Timber Owners Association and the New Hampshire Farm Bureau. Three of the four local candidates for the State Senate took part in the forum. Though there were differences among the candidates present, they each acquitted themselves well when discussing their priorities. What was unfortunate was that State Senate candidate Josh Youssef chose not to attend and according to the forum’s organizers he did not respond to the numerous attempts made to contact him. Youssef’s habit of not attending public forums and blaming the organizers, is disrespectful to the people he
claims to want to represent. Furthermore, his refusal to formally respond to an invitation, even though the event was planned months in advance, is inconsiderate to the organizers and the people that attended. Why does he think he should be a senator when he won’t attend a 90 minute, impartial public forum? If he can’t be focused or organized in a campaign how can any of us expect he’ll be able to do it as a senator? Serving in public office requires an appreciation for the trust the public puts in a senator. Josh Youssef does not appreciate the people he wants to represent and he has not earned the public trust. Jeff Twarog Franklin
from preceding page conservatives believing our CHRISTIAN president is Muslim today, as they did in 2008. Why? Because virtually every Republican politician has either encouraged or tolerated the far-right lunatic fringe, from crackpot “birthers”, who insist the president wasn’t even born here, to Romney campaign surrogates like our own John Sununu who insisted the president “needs to learn what it means to be an American.” Sanunu continues his attack by suggesting that, “Colin Powell endorsed President Obama because, in part, the two men are the same race.” Mitt Romney promised to, “Keep America American”; does this include the 47 percent of Americans he will, “not worry about.” Michele Bachman launched a witch hunt against Muslims in the State Department, Newt Gingrich called Obama a “food stamp president” and Rick Santorum railed
will never be on our side.” How can Wiles, Boutin, Mead, and Stephenson and other conservatives not draw divisive inferences from these actions and statements? We are in the midst of a brazen intolerance against immigrants and people of color, voting rights, women’s rights, worker’s rights and the civil and human rights of people who want to contribute to our communities and secure the American Dream for their families. The divisive tactics and scapegoating policies of the rightwing conservatives are attacking the core values of our nation. Where is the common since and basic decency, at least post-Renaissance thinking? Mr. Wiles can spare me the dramatic recitation of his scripted outrage about a “divisive president.” It is quite apparent from his rhetoric that he is the angry and divisive one. L. J. Siden

LETTERS Youssef extended a hand to me without regard for himself To the editor, There have been many attacks on the character of Josh Youseff recently. There are not many people left in this world that will extend a hand to someone, barely an acquaintance, without any equivocation, expectation, or regard for the turmoils and labors of their own lives. I have fought a long, drawn out legal battle for custody of my beautiful daughter, Bryce, just 8 years old. I have held my own, pro-se, against one of the most brutal attorneys in the state, and an extremely biased Family Court to maintain normal relations with my daughter amidst false allegations to law enforcement, school officials and the public in general. This battle I have fought alone for five years. It has consumed me. Yet I am proud, and stood alone.
Upon hearing that I was fighting to keep my two daughters together with me here in N.H., Josh contacted me. He offered to look through the volumes of legal briefs and offer his advice, so I could keep my family together. And mostly to let me know that I was not alone. All this I would like to inform your readers, while he was in the in the midst of deciding to run for N.H. Senate. Josh took interest in me, and my family, and helped us, without regard to himself, and although I did not win, gave me a warm hug, contacts me often to see how Bryce is doing in Florida and supported me through my loss... That is character. That is the man who he is, and that is how he will represent YOU! Scott Baird Belmont
When will respect for truth transcend Obama’s political concerns? To the editor, Over six weeks have passed. Elected officials have attained only ambiguous and contradictory answers from President Obama’s administration regarding the terrorist attack on September 11th in which Ambassador Chris Stevens, Sean Smith, and X-Navy Seals Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty were slaughtered. Why after numerous terrorist attacks in Benghazi, were the pre-attack warnings of Ambassador Stevens and the request for adequate security denied? We now know that an “offensive Internet video,” was not relevant to the Benghazi murders; a spontaneous demonstration never occurred, and we know that the attack was planned and executed by al Qaeda affiliates. Obama administration officials who watched the Benghazi consulate attack in real time, and reviewed the intelligence
afterwards knew the administration’s chief narrative was untrue. Yet false information repeated for weeks. President Obama stated he ordered subordinates to “make sure that we are securing our personnel.” Yet its’ reported that CIA personnel only a mile away were ordered not to assist. Military assets reportedly close enough to have saved lives, were not deployed. Why would the president’s order not be implemented? Howard “Buck” McKeon, chairman of the House Armed Services Committee Chairman stated that the Obama administration’s stories sound “implausible.” We wonder when the respect for the truth about murdered American heroes will finally transcend the Obama administration’s short-sighted political concerns. Michael D. Breen M.P.A., Ph.D. Mouultonborough
A vote for Obama is a vote for four more years of gridlock To the editor, Less then a week until the election. Both sides have presented every argument for their candidate and yet little has changed. Gridlock in Congress for the past two years and only one chance to change that, a new president. Obama has alienated Republi-
cans so love them or hate them, they will not work with him. Romney is the only hope for change and solutions for our problems, so remember a vote for Obama is a vote for four more years of gridlock. Steve Earle Hill

Close to the finish line now, Guinta & Shea-Porter campaign in Laconia on Thurs. Guinta looks for conversation and votes in local restaurants By RogeR-Amsden FOR THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
GILFORD — First District Congressman Frank Guinta, whom polls show in a virtual tie with his challenger, former congresswoman Carol SheaPorter, brought his re-election campaign to several Laconia-area restaurants yesterday, ending his swing with a stop at the Lakeside Restaurant in Gilford, which had posted a sign on their door telling customers that the congressman was expected to arrive around 12:30 p.m. It was nearly an hour later that Guinta arrived and started making the rounds, explaining that he loved going to diners and meeting people for face to face conversations. ‘’It’s a good reflection of America. It’s not like a party rally where there are just Republicans or Democrats. Just talking to people in a restaurant or diner helps you understand better what’s on their minds,’’ said Guinta, who was upbeat about his prospects for re-election. Lorraine and Fred Parkhurst of Gilford were at the Lakeside along with their neighbor, Susan Noyes, and said that they had come specifically to see Guinta and listen to what he had to say. No shrinking violet, Lorraine Parkhurst told Guinta that she was disappointed that she hadn’t been able to talk to him and ask questions during one of his telephone town meetings. ‘’I waited half an hour and never got a chance to say a word,’’ she said, adding that she had been getting robo phone call messages from Guinta’s office for the last six months. “He really wants to win,’’ she observed as Guinta moved on to the next table, apparently without convincing her to vote for him. see GUINTA next page

Shea-Porter gets first-hand look at Energy Services program at LRCC By RogeR-Amsden FOR THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — Former congresswoman Carol SheaPorter told students in the energy services and technology class at Lakes Region Community College yesterday that climate change is real and that they are in the forefront of making the necessary changes which will allow future generations to ‘’solve our energy problems.’’ She said that Hurricane Sandy and the destruction it has brought is a reminder of how serious a problem climate change is and that it’s important for people to talk about it. ‘’You’re right in the front row. You’re helping with our environment and helping end our dependence on foreign oil, which is a national security issue as well as an environmental issue,’’ said Shea-Porter.
She spoke to one of Professor Wes Golomb’s classes after having been given a tour of the classroom by Golomb, an award winning teacher who two years ago received New England Board of Higher Education state merit award. One of the first of its kind in the nation, the LRCC program prepares students for careers in energy efficiency and renewable energy. Golomb teaches classes in energy management, renewable energy, spreadsheets and blueprint readings, and building materials.

Besides the degree program, the initiative also trained 125 certified energy auditors throughout the state. Golomb said that the focus of the school’s prosee SHEA-PORTER next page

227 Eastman Shore Road in the news again; this time for underage drinking party; 21 minors apprehended BY GAIL OBER
LACONIA — Police found 21 minors hiding along various portions of Eastman Shore Road early Friday morning after responding to an report of an underage drinking party. The youngest person found consuming alcohol was 14-years-old. Responding officers said they found numerous people in the driveway near the 227 Eastman Shore Road . The also saw several people attempting to hide while they were interviewing five people in the driveway. Police said the five were between the ages on 18 and 21 and were intoxicated. They said they saw numerous empty beverage containers outside the house and the area smelled like alcohol. Police said the person responsible for the party was 17-years-old. According to Vision Appraisal — an on-line Laconia appraising data base — the house in owned by Marc Richer.
Police said they made several attempts to contact the people in the home but when no one answered the door, police requested and were granted a search warrant. Once inside, police found 21 additional minors scattered and hidden throughout the home, including some who were hiding in “small locked closets.” Nine of the 16 youths were cited for unlawful intoxication and released accordingly. Four of them were under 18-years-old. Christopher Grene, 19, of Laconia, Andrew Hawthorne, 19 of Laconia, Kerry Gagnon, 19, of Laconia, Kimberlee Deinema, 20 of Caanan, Vt., and Jeffrey Roy, 19, of Laconia were taken into custody and charged with unlawful intoxication. The same home at 227 Eastman Shore Road was the scene of a home invasion/burglary last week. In that case, four area men face a variety of charges for breaking into the home and trying to take some video games. One of those arrested said the video games had initially been taken from him.
GUINTA from preceding page ‘’I’m an independent. I’ll make up my mind when I get behind the curtain,’’ she said, a sentiment which was echoed by her husband, who said that he wasn’t in a hurry to decide which way to vote, Others in the restaurant were very supportive of Guinta, like Dave Barco of Gilford, a retired businessman who said ‘’I’m 100 percent for him. I like what he’s doing.’’ Barco, who predicted that Mitt Romney will win in a landslide, said that he was particularly concerned about legislation affecting small businesses and was very happy with Guinta’s answers to his questions. He also said that he likes the fact that Guinta has voted to repeal ObamaCare, which Barco said will severely impact small businesses and ‘’should be rescinded.’’
Walter Quinn, a former businessman and mobile home park owner who in 1967 lost a race for mayor of Laconia by only seven votes to Democrat James Royal, said he was impressed by what Guinta had done as mayor of Manchester to hold the line on taxes said he had confidence that Guinta ‘’wouldn’t take taxpayers money to give away.’’ Guinta also found time to talk to Glenn and Sara Fusione and their three-year-old twins, Paige and Parker, and shared cellphone photos he had taken of his children dressed in Halloween costumes. He said that Hurricane Sandy had created an atmosphere in which people felt the need to ‘’come together and look beyond partisan politics’’ and that it was his sense that there was bipartisan support in Congress for federal relief efforts for those affected by the storm.
SHEA-PORTER from preceding page grams are on energy efficiency and that the program’s graduates are in high demand, with 10 of the 13 recent graduates landing jobs within weeks of graduation. Students in the class like Sean Camlin of Rochester, who is in his second year in the energy program, say that they realize that there is a big demand for people with a background in energy conservation
and that it is a growth industry for the future. ‘’My prospects are pretty good. There are a lot of job openings out there,’’ says Camlin, who works part-time as a meat cutter at Hannaford’s to help pay his college bills. Both J.P.

Meredith Motors agrees to pay $65k penalty for handling of underground storage tanks CONCORD — The state and Meredith Motor Company, Inc. have reached a settlement for claims that the company failed to register and permanently close four substandard underground oil storage tanks on its property at 339 Daniel Webster Highway as well as failed to comply with administrative order to close and remove the tanks issued by the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services (DES) in a timely manner. New Hampshire Attorney General Michael Delany and Commissioner of Environmental Services Tom Burack announced yesterday that the terms of the settlement were approved by Judge James O’Neill of Belknap County Superior Court this week. The settlement includes a penalty of $65,000 assessed against Meredith Motors, which has been ordered to pay the state $10,000 within 90 days and the balance within two years.To secure payment, the company must grant the state a mortgage of $55,000 on the property. Meanwhile, Meredith Motors has removed all four of the tanks as and excavated and disposed of the contaminated soils near therm. Additional sampling and testing is scheduled to determine the nature and extent of groundwater contamination associated with the tanks. In its petition filed in January DES alleged that personnel from the agency discovered three tanks on property owned by Meredith Motors on November 16, 2007. None of the tanks were registered with DES or permitted by the agency as prescribed by statute. One tank, with a capacity of 4,000 gallons was installed in 1980 and used to store No. 2 oil.
from preceding page rimack, said that completing the energy program at the college, will improve their chances for advancement in their careers. Prior to her presentation to the class Shea-Porter talked briefly about her campaign to regain the seat she lost to Republican Frank Guinta in 2010. She said that she has campaigned against what she called ‘’The Tea Party Congress’’ and that she has been competitive in fundraising with Guinta except for ‘’outside black money’’ which she said comes from the American Action Network, a Washington-based conservative advocacy group, which she says has put nearly $2 million into attack ads on her campaign.
The second, a 5,950 gallon tank, also storing No. 2 oil, was installed in 1955 and the third, also a 5,950 gallon tank installed in 1955, was used for storing gasoline. The three tanks were located in the southwest quarter of the property near Rte. 3 North. The two largest abutted the property line defining the adjacent lot that houses the Citgo gas station, not far from a drainage swale emptying into the Hawkins Brook wetland to the east. In 1988, DES adopted regulations requiring the closure and removal of all underground storage tanks lacking corrosion protection systems within 60 days of their registration. None of the three tanks were equipped with corrosion protection systems or spill containment, overfill protection or release detection devices as required. Although the tanks were registered in January 2008, they were neither closed or removed. DES officials reminded the firm of the requirement in 2008 and twice in 2010 before ordering their closure and removal within 30 days on July 18, 2011. Although Meredith Motors failed to comply within 30 days, it removed the three tanks in November and December, when the fourth tank, identical to the others with a capacity of 4,000 gallons, was found. Earlier this year Meredith Motors closed its facility in Meredith as is now doing business in Plymouth. — Michael Kitch HEPATITIS from page 2 mation but rather ... is trained to avoid acquiring unnecessary medical records and to only acquire the minimum necessary to complete the investigation,” the judge wrote. After the ruling, the hospital said it was confident that seeking judicial guidance in the case was the right thing to do for its patients. “Today’s decision provides important guidance to both the hospital and the State, and will allow the hospital to further fulfill its obligations to the State’s investigation and our patients,” it said in a statement.

from preceding page been fired twice over allegations of drug use and theft, and thousands of patients in those states are being tested to see if they, too, were infected with hepatitis C, a blood-borne viral infection that can cause liver disease and chronic health issues. A handful of patients in Kansas have been found to carry the strain Kwiatkowski carries, including Linda Ficken, of Andover, Kan. Ficken, 70, underwent a cardiac catheterization at Hays Medical Center in Hays, Kan., in 2010. According to copies of her medical records she recently obtained, Kwiatkowski was the technician who stood at her bedside for more than an hour, applying pressure to the catheter’s entry site in her leg to control a bleeding problem. “I remember talking to him and telling him I was really sorry that he had to stand there all that time
in one position,” she said Thursday. “I sympathized with him and thanked him for being so conscientious and doing his job so good, and then I find out that he’s the one who’s saving my life with one hand and with the other hand, he’s jeopardizing it.” Ficken and her husband are suing the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, alleging it was negligent for not telling law enforcement or any government agency that Kwiatkowski was accused of stealing and using narcotics when employed there in 2008. UPMC has said that when Kwiatkowski was accused of stealing fentanyl, a narcotic used in anesthesia, officials did not contact police because they did not believe they had enough evidence. Kwiatkowski, who has told authorities he did not steal or use drugs, has pleaded not guilty in New Hampshire to illegally obtaining drugs and tampering with a consumer product.
SENATE 7 from page one Youssef calls for a gradual moderation of the state Business Enterprise and Business Profits Taxes, adjusting his position from the earlier Franklin debate when he seemed to call for the elimination of those taxes for a fixed period of time to recharge the economy. He said eliminating duplicity and waste in state government would compensate for the foregone revenue. Hosmer’s position was to double the Research and Development Tax credit — against those same taxes — to encourage new businesses to relocate or start in New Hampshire. When Youssef said the R&D tax does little for small businesses that employ less than 10 people, Hosmer said bigger businesses provide jobs that will germinate the seeds for surrounding little businesses. Speaking directly about the Huot Regional Technical Education Center expansion, Youssef said he supports technical education but would not have supported the state’s 75 percent contribution to the cost of the building project. He said he would rather see state funds spent to provide for school choice because making options available to parents would both improve the quality of education and lower the price. Hosmer said he supported the state’s contribution to the Huot Center and would support similar attempts to expand technical education if elected.
“Your non-support shows a lack of understanding about what the Huot does,” said Hosmer, who said businesses need future employees who can use 21st century technology. Youssef replied that Hosmer was being disingenuous is not understanding that he could be for technical education but against allocating specific funds for the Huot Center. He likened his position to Hosmer’s stated position on a state income tax — Hosmer has said he would not vote for one but is also unwilling to put a ban of one in the Constitution. As to the state’s so called education adequacy grants to local school districts and whether or not the program is at the level it should be, Hosmer only reiterating his support for public education while Youssef said it’s where it should be for now — not too high and not too low. He tried to get Hosmer to respond to a statement he made saying when people take their children from public schools (Hosmer’s children attend Catholic school) the state adequacy money leaves the see next page

from preceding page system, too, but Hosmer didn’t bite and ignored the remark. The two sharply disagreed on expanding Medicaid and taking federal money made available through the Affordable Care Act that has come to be known as ObamaCare. Hosmer said accepting the federal match, starting in 2014, would provide heath care to 36,000 New Hampshire residents who don’t have it and alleviate some of the drain hospitals and private insurers incur by paying for the uninsured. “We’re going to pay for this with taxation — something I oppose,” Youssef replied. Youssef said the problem is a “broken” state Medicaid Enhancement Tax. He said he would look toward professional employment associations to reduce costs through large volume health insurance buys. Both said more competition would lower insurance rates, however Hosmer said he would not support eliminating mandated coverage to intice more insurance companies to enter the market. The two also differ significantly on social issues. When asked about abortion for rape and incest, Youssef said that Roe v. Wade was the “law of the land” and as a state lawmaker, he could effect no effect on it. He said he is “pro-life” and believes the 14th amendment protects the unborn. “Life trumps choice,” he said. Hosmer is “pro-choice.” “I trust women to make their own decisions,” he said, noting other states have made considerable changes to abortion laws within the existing federal law.
When Youssef said he thinks both rape and incest are despicable and should be punished harshly, Hosmer replied by saying punishment “goes without saying” and the real issue is about women. When asked how each man’s campaign demonstrates how each would legislate, Youssef said his campaign was run on a “shoe-string” budget with “the change in his pocket.” He noted he was outspent in his primary campaign by nearly 4 to 1 but still prevailed. Hosmer described his campaign as a business venture that used “professional, organized discipline to deliver his message.” He said he went to Democratic, Republican and Independent groups and gathered support citing his endorsement by some business organizations that rarely support Democrats. When asked how they are different from each other, Hosmer said he wasn’t a ideologue and that he saw the value of compromise. “Integrity matters,” Hosmer said. Youssef didn’t respond to being called an ideologue, but equated Hosmer’s spending position as disastrous and irresponsible. He said he has a commitment to being a thrifty lawmaker. “We need a severe level of responsibility to get through the storm,” he said, adding he would spend the taxpayers “pennies in the thriftiest manner possible.” Moderator Engler pointed out that both men a residents of Laconia and the election on Tuesday, no matter who wins, is going to produce the first city resident to sit in the N.H. Senate in over a half century.
SCHILLING from page 2 38 Studios. Gov. Lincoln Chafee said the EDC board, of which he is the chairman, authorized the legal action in an attempt to recoup some of the state’s money. “My message to Rhode Islanders is this: I know that you work hard for your paychecks, and for your tax dollars to be squandered is unacceptable,” Chafee said in a video statement. “The Board’s legal action was taken to rectify a grave injustice put upon the people of Rhode Island.” Chafee said he would not comment further. Messages left for Schilling, Stokes and Saul weren’t immediately returned. 38 Studios collapsed into bankruptcy in June. Rhode Island is likely responsible for about $100 million when interest is factored in on the bonds the state issued on the company’s behalf. The suit says that EDC board members were not experts in “law, lending, video gaming or economic development” and relied on information from Stokes, Saul, Schilling and others at 38 Studios. The suit says the company failed because of risks that were not disclosed to the board “but were or should have been known” by the defendants. The suit also says the EDC board was misled about whether 38 Studios would have enough money to finish the video game, codenamed Copernicus, that was critical to its success. It says the company’s own financial projections showed a shortfall of about $22 million of the estimated $75 million needed. The com-
pany got only about $50 million of the $75 million in bond funds because some was kept in reserve. The suit says the defendants should have known it was “likely that 38 Studios would run out of cash and go out of business by 2012.” Schilling’s firm tried to raise outside capital but was unable. The suit also says that an EDC analyst who raised questions about the loan guarantee — and suggested he could not support it — was later excluded from doing further work on it by Saul, who oversaw the agency’s financing programs at the time. As a result, the agency’s customary risk analysis of the deal was never completed or submitted to the board, according to the suit. The suit accuses Saul and attorney Robert Stolzman, who served as EDC secretary, of withholding from the board “negative” opinions about the proposed deal, including from two consultants who said they wouldn’t invest $75 million in 38 Studios if they were in the EDC’s position. In May, the company laid off its nearly 300 employees in Providence and more at a studio in Maryland it acquired in 2009. The suit says Wells Fargo also earned $473,000 in “hidden commissions” from 38 Studios that the state didn’t know about — and which ate into the total available to run the company. Dana Crothers Obrist, a spokeswoman for Wells Fargo, said the company does not believe the lawsuit has merit, and it is prepared to defend itself vigorously.
Hundreds of deer harvested during N.H.’s Youth Hunting Weekend By AdAm drApcho THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
NEW HAMPTON — Like hundreds of other children, seven yearold Dalton Dion of New Hampton spent all day Saturday in the woods. With his father, Mario, as his guide, Dalton practiced for his first time the finer points of hunting. After a day of tracking, he was rewarded with a clear shot at a doe. His aim true, Dalton brought home his first deer and a memory to last a lifetime. “He was all excited, he wanted to go out the next day and hunt more,” said Jennifer Dion, Dalton’s mother.

Several of the organizations that offer youth sports in Laconia have stepped forward to support the $1 million Laconia School District capital campaign. Shown here, from left to right and standing in front of the site where the Bank of New Hampshire Stadium is already under construction, are Tony Pederzani of Laconia Lacrosse, Eric Petell of Laconia Little League, Dan Greenwood of the Lou Athanas Youth Basketball League, Deanna Guyer and Amy Kirk of Laconia Youth Soccer and Rod Roy of Laconia Youth Football. (Laconia Daily Sun photo/ Adam Drapcho)
LHS from page one labs, and an expanded Huot Regional Technical Education Center. The capital campaign, according to the most recent report, was three-quarters of the way to its goal. The campaign has seen several large donors step forward — the facility will be known as Bank of New Hampshire Stadium in recognition of that institution’s $250,000 gift, for example — but has also seen generosity in more modest sizes. Businesses, especially those involved in the construction industry, have offered in-kind donations, and individuals or high school classes have organized to sponsor a brick or granite paver, which will be used to line the walkway from the parking lot to the playing field. The committee organizing the capital campaign hopes to cobble together enought contributions to reach its goal. The goal is a few steps closer now, thanks to donations from youth sports organizations. Lou Athanas Youth Basketball League, Laconia Youth Soccer and Laconia Little League are each sponsoring a granite paver with a gift of $1,000.
Laconia Lacrosse is donating a rebound wall, useful for practicing that sport, which could cost as much as $2,000. Youth Football is giving to the school the former concessions building — a new concessions building is planned — to be used as a garage for field equipment. The football organization is also donating concessions equipment and appliances. Dan Greenwood, representing the youth basketball league, said that basketball is one of the few sports that won’t utilize the outdoor facility. However, “Every one of the kids that plays in the basketball league will have played on this field at some time.” “All the kids that come up through this area will play on this field,” added Rod Roy, of Laconia Youth Football. Eric Petell, of Laconia Little League, said that although the different leagues specialize in their own sport, they hold common values. “What the individual leagues stand for, we’re all into education, into sportsmanship, creating future leaders.” “It gives the kids a safer environment,” said see next page

from preceding page Deanna Guyer of Laconia Youth Soccer. “It gives them something to look forward to and work toward. We want to give kids a place to go and work together as a team.” “As far as lacrosse goes, we’re going to be able to expand our program,” said Tony Pederzani of Laconia Lacrosse. With the facility, his league will be able to host summer camps, clinics and tournaments, the last of which can bring significant revenue to his league. Other youth leagues, such as soccer and football, could also host tourna-
ments at the facility. A regional tournament could bring thousands of dollars in revenue to the organization, which would be used to defray costs, purchase equipment or offer scholarships to children who otherwise couldn’t afford to participate. Craig Kozens, Laconia High School football coach and a member of the capital campaign committee, told the youth organization representatives, “On behalf of the campaign, I really thank you guys for stepping up. It’s going to be a great place for kids. I know the committee is really excited to see the community stepping up.”
DEER from page 17 those of recent years. Last year, 475 deer were shot during youth hunting weekend. In 2010, youth harvested 392 deer. “The weekend has been really popular and growing in popularity,” said Vachon. The event is one of the ways that the department is seeking to stem the long-term decline in hunting, a trend seen nationally as well as locally, especially over the past two decades. However, according to Vachon, the level of hunting registration in New Hampshire has “plateaued” in recent years, perhaps due to programs such as youth hunting weekend. New this year is the apprentice hunting license, designed for adult residents who are new to hunting and curious about the sport. Those residents could get a full-fledged license, but would first have to complete a hunter’s safety course. The apprentice license allows adults to go hunt-
ing without first taking the course, given that they are accompanied by a licensed hunter. Vachon said the apprentice license program has been, like the youth weekends, very popular. The success of these programs is good news to Fish & Game. In addition to the preservation of the sport as a traditional food-gathering method, hunting serves as a management technique as well as a funding source for the department’s conservation efforts. “If the tradition of hunting is to continue, it’s important for young people to get involved,” said Vachon. “Once they experience it, it’s really exciting and satisfying.” Dalton seemingly got a taste of that excitement and satisfaction. Jennifer Dion said her son spent all of Sunday in the woods, after doing the same thing on Saturday. “My family’s big into hunting,” she said. Is Dalton now hooked on the sport? She said, “He is, big time.”
NYC from page one sidewalk outside an arena in Brooklyn, waiting for buses to Manhattan. Nearby, hundreds of people massed on a sidewalk. When a bus pulled up, passengers rushed the door. A transit worker banged on a bus window, yelled at people inside, and then yelled at people in the line. With the electricity out and gasoline supplies scarce, many gas stations across the New York area remained closed, and stations that were open drew long lines of cars that spilled out onto roads. At a station near Coney Island, almost 100 cars lined up, and people shouted and honked, and a station employee said he had been spit on and had coffee thrown at him. In a Brooklyn neighborhood, a station had pumps wrapped in police tape and a “NO GAS” sign, but cars waited because of a rumor that gas was coming. “I’ve been stranded here for five days,” said Stuart Zager, who is from Brooklyn and was trying to get to his place in Delray Beach, Fla. “I’m afraid to get on the Jersey Turnpike. On half a tank, I’ll never make it.” The worst was over at least for public transportation. The Long Island Rail Road and Metro-North were running commuter trains again, though service was limited. New Jersey Transit had no rail service but most of its buses were back, and Amtrak was hoping to resume train service between New York and Boston for the first time since the storm hit. The storm killed at least 90 people in the U.S. New York City raised its
death toll on Thursday to 38, including two Staten Island boys, 2 and 4, swept from their mother’s arms by the floodwaters. In New Jersey, many people were allowed back into their neighborhoods Thursday for the first time since Sandy ravaged the coastline. Some found minor damage, others total destruction. The storm cut off barrier islands, smashed homes, wrecked boardwalks and hurled amusement park rides into the sea. Atlantic City, on a barrier island, remained under mandatory evacuation. More than 4.6 million homes and businesses, including about 650,000 in New York and its northern suburbs, were still without power. Consolidated Edison, the power company serving New York, said electricity should be restored by Saturday to customers in Manhattan and to homes and offices served by underground power lines in Brooklyn. In darkened neighborhoods, people walked around with miner’s lamps on their foreheads and bicycle lights clipped to shoulder bags and, in at least one case, to a dog’s collar. A Manhattan handyman opened a fire hydrant so people could collect water to flush toilets. “You can clearly tell at the office, or even walking down the street, who has power and who doesn’t,” said Jordan Spiro, who lives in the blackout zone. “New Yorkers may not be known as the friendliest bunch, but take away their ability to shower and communicate and you’ll see how disgruntled they can get.”

‘Beyond the Gates’ free film showing at Laconia Public Library Nov. 5 LACONIA — The Laconia Human Relations Committee, in cooperation with the Laconia Public Library, presents Beyond the Gates, another in their International Film Series, on Monday, November 5 at 6:15 p.m. at the Laconia Public Library. At first, life is relatively calm at Rwanda’s Ecole Technique Officielle, a European-run secondary school compound serving Tutsi and Hutu young people. The UN has an army contingent of peace-keepers based in the compound. However, they will only be able to shoot in self-defense. This is Rwanda just as the Hutu/Tutsi violence is breaking out in 1994. Tension builds as the limited role of the UN becomes clear and the violence of the Hutu militia increases. The story of Beyond the Gates is told well, with sensitivity. An important note is to learn that children who escaped are integral to the creation and filming of this movie. It is a 2005 movie filmed on location in Rwanda. Though it is not an easy movie to see, it is still the experience of many who found their first home here in Laconia after fleeing such inhumanity. Certainly, anyone who has lived through any brutality that creates refugees in any country understands what it is to survive such warring. Rwanda and other neighboring
countries in central Africa are largely Christian countries. Rwandan refugees who have come to Laconia have mostly moved on to Concord and other places. However, we have families in Laconia who have fled such violence from other parts of Africa and the world. If time permits, the story of one young man, a Tutsi who came to Laconia in about 2005, will be shared. His life has much to say about how he tried and still works to be a peace maker. With violence once more on the world scene in the Syrian civil war, it is important for us who have never had to deal with such experience to be reminded of what fellow human beings are going through to survive. Carol Pierce, of the Laconia Human Relations Committee, says, “It is difficult to comprehend the courage it takes to not only survive but to thrive in the years after such terror. To find the courage to love and live in community again says much about the human spirit that is alive in the world.” The Laconia International Film Series is open free to everyone. Informal discussion follows the film. Light snacks are provided. Feel free to bring a cushion for comfort in viewing the movie. For more information, contact Carol Pierce at newdynam@aol.com or Lovina Ellsworth at Lovinia.Ellsworth@yahoo.com.
PLYMOUTH — The 2012 Eagle Pond Authors’ Series at Plymouth State University will present a reading and reception with poet, translator and essayist Forrest Gander at 7 p.m. Tuesday, November 8 in the Smith Recital Hall at the Silver Center. Gander’s latest book, Core Samples from the World, was a finalist for the 2012 Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Critics Circle Award. The Adele Kellenberg Seaver Professor of Literary Arts and Comparative Literature at Brown University, Gander has degrees in geology and English. Gander frequently pairs his poems with images, which serve not merely as illustration, but are also given equal footing with the words, creating a mix that is more than the sum of the parts, as he does in Core Samples from the World. In 2008, Gander was named a United States Artists Rockefeller Fellow, one of 50 artists to be recognized for artistic excellence, unique artistic vision, and significant contributions to their fields. Gander is also the recipient of fellow-
ships from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Guggenheim, Howard and Whiting Foundations, and he has received two Gertrude Stein Awards for Innovative Poetry. In a new Eagle Pond Series tradition, Kaylee Fouts, a senior PSU English major from Ashland, will open the program reading some of her own works. Now in its 15th year, the Eagle Pond Authors’ Series is a tribute to Donald Hall, one of the nation’s most beloved poets and authors. Hall remains the heart and soul of this series and is instrumental in bringing nationally and internationally revered poets to the PSU campus. Hall will be on hand to introduce Gander, and both will stay after the reading for an authors’ reception and book signing, including Hall’s latest publication, Christmas at Eagle Pond. Free tickets for the Eagle Pond Authors’ Series are available at the Silver Center Box Office, (603) 535-2787 or (800) 7793869, and are highly recommended. The series is presented with generous support from the Follett Higher Education Group (PSU Bookstore).

Get Fuzzy
By Holiday Mathis teach compassion. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The one who finds the gold doesn’t have to start the rush. You’ll find a kind of treasure that has great value to you. You’ll also be smart about what to share and when. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll be learning from someone else, possibly someone intimidating. Having more knowledge doesn’t make a person better than anyone else, but it sometimes makes a person believe this is true. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). In regard to a certain relationship, you make it seem like you are letting things unfold according to their own timeline. But truthfully, you’re playing it cool, very much in control of the pacing. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). A healing process is underway. You can’t speed it along, but you can take good care of yourself, putting yourself in the kind of supportive environment that will allow nature to take its course. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). A loved one may openly disagree with you, starting a lively debate. You may actually enjoy the argument and gain something valuable from it. Diverse opinions and talents make a relationship strong. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Nov. 2). This year brings a surge of personal power, and you’ll conquer the fear that once held you back. December sees you rise up along a chain of command. January bonds you with a small group of like minds. Together you will be unstoppable. You’ll invest in your appearance or transportation in March. May brings a windfall. Capricorn and Aquarius people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 28, 38, 41 and 2.
TUNDRA
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Someone is waiting for you to make the first move. Once it’s made, sparks will fly, and there will be no going back. So be sure this is really what you want. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). What should be familiar territory doesn’t seem to be at all. That’s because a new person is involved, and this person changes everything. Pause to come up with an approach that will better suit the current scene. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You know you’re in love when no matter what a certain someone does you think it’s just adorable. Others may not share your opinion, but you’re so enamored that they’ll probably think you are “just adorable,” too. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You got where you are by making a series of choices. You’ll break them down in your head to figure out the particular choices that were the most effective. You want to repeat them in order to get to the next place. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll probably need to bounce from Plan A to Plan B. And be sure to make a contingency plan if that one doesn’t work out, either. Luckily, whatever happens will be more fun than any of the previous plans. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ve always sensed that you were the rock in someone’s life, but you’ll feel it more now that he or she is leaning on you. Ground yourself, as this feeling could last through the weekend. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Being nice is important to you, not only because you think it’s the right way to be, but also because you know that kindness is contagious. With your graceful handling of a situation, you’ll

Today is Friday, Nov. 2, the 307th day of 2012. There are 59 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Nov. 2, 1962, President John F. Kennedy delivered a brief statement to the nation in which he said that aerial photographs had confirmed that Soviet missile bases in Cuba were being dismantled, and that “progress is now being made toward the restoration of peace in the Caribbean.” On this date: In 1783, Gen. George Washington issued his Farewell Orders to the Armies of the United States near Princeton, N.J. In 1795, the 11th president of the United States, James Knox Polk, was born in Mecklenburg County, N.C. In 1865, the 29th president of the United States, Warren Gamaliel Harding, was born near Marion, Ohio. In 1889, North Dakota and South Dakota became the 39th and 40th states. In 1917, British Foreign Secretary Arthur Balfour issued a declaration expressing support for a “national home” for the Jews in Palestine. In 1936, the British Broadcasting Corp. inaugurated “high-definition” television service from Alexandra Palace in London. In 1947, Howard Hughes piloted his huge wooden flying boat, the Hughes H-4 Hercules (derisively dubbed the “Spruce Goose” by detractors), on its only flight, which lasted about a minute over Long Beach Harbor in California. In 1948, President Harry S. Truman surprised the experts by winning a narrow upset over Republican challenger Thomas E. Dewey. In 1959, former game show contestant Charles Van Doren admitted to a House subcommittee that he’d been given questions and answers in advance when he appeared on NBC’s “TwentyOne.” In 1963, South Vietnamese President Ngo Dihn Diem (noh ding ZEE’-em) was assassinated in a military coup. In 1979, black militant JoAnne Chesimard escaped from a New Jersey prison, where she’d been serving a life sentence for the 1973 slaying of New Jersey state trooper Werner Foerster. (Chesimard, who took the name Assata Shakur, is believed to be living in Cuba.) In 1992, movie producer Hal Roach died in Los Angeles at age 100. One year ago: The Congressional Gold Medal was awarded to some 19,000 Japanese-Americans who’d served in the 100th Infantry Battalion, the 442nd Regimental Combat Team and the Military Intelligence Service. Today’s Birthdays: Rhythm-and-blues singer Earl “Speedo” Carroll is 75. Singer Jay Black is 74. Actress Stefanie Powers is 70. Author Shere Hite is 70. Rock musician Keith Emerson is 68. Country-rock singer-songwriter J.D. Souther is 67. Actress Kate Linder is 65. Rock musician Carter Beauford is 55. Singer-songwriter k.d. lang is 51. Rock musician Bobby Dall is 49. Actress Lauren Velez is 48. Actor David Schwimmer is 46. Rock musician Fieldy is 43. Rock singer-musician John Hampson is 41. Rhythm-and-blues singer Timothy Christian Riley is 38.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Annie: I live in Europe. I visit my parents twice a year with my kids, and my parents visit us annually. I recently asked that no relatives visit during my son’s spring break so he can concentrate on his SATs and AP exams. My parents, however, insist they would not be a bother and against my wishes are planning to come during spring break and live at our house for two weeks. They always expect us to entertain them and take them out of town on the weekends. What can I say to make them change their minds? -- 50 Years Old but Still Feeling 5 Dear Old Enough: Unless there is a good reason why your folks picked this time to visit, we strongly urge you to put your backbone in place. Tell your parents as sweetly as you can manage that if they insist on coming at precisely the time you asked them not to, you are so sorry, but you won’t be able to put them up in your home because your son cannot have any distractions. You also won’t be taking weekend trips for the same reason. Tell them how awful it is that you can’t provide the type of company they were hoping for and that your son won’t be able to enjoy their visit. Give them the name of a local bed-and-breakfast and suggestions for day trips and places of interest. Do it nicely but firmly, and don’t back down. They will be upset, but they’ll get the message. Dear Annie: Three years ago, I moved back to my hometown. My older brother, “Jerome,” lives here. He is an outspoken and grumpy old man. His wife and I are friends and talk on the phone often. Here’s the rub: I haven’t been invited for a holiday or birthday celebration since I moved here. We exchange gifts, but they have cake or dinner after I leave. Yet my sister-in-law’s family is always invited.
I would often take baked treats over, but I stopped. Should I stop exchanging gifts, too? My sister-in-law knows this is hurtful, but she says only that Jerome doesn’t like a lot of people around. Is he that uncaring? I rarely talk to him now, and I haven’t been to his house in months. He has dropped over here a few times to bring produce or canned pickles. I wish I could just get over it. -- Baffled Dear Baffled: We think the fact that Jerome drops by with produce and canned pickles indicates that he’d like a closer relationship, but doesn’t know how to achieve it. Have you invited him to your home for a birthday or Christmas party? That street runs both ways. You also could tell him directly that you’d love to stay for cake and ice cream at the next birthday party and see how he reacts. It can’t hurt. Dear Annie: In response to “Another Lonely Wife” (and many other unhappy wives), I share your pain from a husband’s point of view. After countless romantic dinners, fun weekend getaways and vacations, tickets to her favorite events, a 25th wedding anniversary cruise and doing my fair share of household chores, the “return” on my efforts is nearly zero. It’s not that I expect it for every gesture I make, but being constantly rejected sexually has taken its toll on my happiness. I would never reject any advances from my wife -- not that she has made many in 10 years. She says she loves me, but she should add, “But I don’t want to have sex with you ever again.” It’s like I have a roommate, not a soul mate. It reminds me of the story of the couple who put a dollar in a jar every time they made love. After 10 years, they paid for a trip to Hawaii. In my case, I wouldn’t be able to pay for the gas to get to the airport. -- Sad Husband

Busiel Mill featuring artwork this month created by inmates at the county jail
Art work by inmates at the Belknap County House of Corrections will be shown during the month of November at the Busiel Mill. (Courtesy photo)
LACONIA — In September it was River Crew Art from the homeless in Laconia. Now the Busiel Mill adds another unexpected showing of amazing talent from those we may not consider talented. Inmate artwork from Belknap County Department of Corrections will be on display in the Busiel Mill Community Room and Gallery at One Mill Plaza during the month of November. This art showing was a goal of Tamara McGonagle, Programs Director at Belknap County Department of Corrections, and Mary Ellen Boudman, volunteer Art Teacher at BCDOC since the Art class began in February of 2011. McGonagle joined BCDOC in May of 2010, and shortly after that started a monthly inmate art-contest. It soon became evident that many of the inmates had exceptional talent when it came to visual arts. During the months that followed Ms. McGonagle began reaching out to community members who would be interested in volunteering at the jail and it was then that she met Mary Ellen Boudman; an artist and retired art teacher from Newfound Regional High School and after a few weeks of initial planning, the art class began. Since the start of the art class, more than 85 inmates have had the opportunity to participate in the class and develop, discover and explore their artist talent.
