South End residents told they have to use Wyatt Park to keep it from being abused; basketball court favored by solid majority By Michael kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — Close to 100 people of all ages came to the Community Center last night to offer their opinions on four plans for improving and reconfiguring the South End’s Wyatt Park and virtually all left, as Officer Peter Horan, a patrolman who lives in the
neighborhood, put it, determined “to take our park back by being there.” Kevin Dunleavy, director of Parks and Recreation, presented the four designs, all of which included common elements — a walking path, skating rink, picnic areas and expanded playground — but differed in their treatment of
the basketball court. One kept it in the southwest corner of the park, another moved it to the northeast corner, another cut it in half and placed alongside Champlin Street and the last eliminated it altogether. The basketball court has overshadowed every public meeting about the future of the park. Those living nearby,
like Sally Perrino who raised her family alongside the park, insist that although they have nothing against kids playing basketball, “it’s the actions and attitudes.” She said that “the language is awful” and late night play is very disturbing, slapping her hand on the podium to mimic the bouncing see WyaTT ParK page 10

Romney denies targeting high school classmates for being gay
WASHINGTON (AP) — Mitt Romney apologized Thursday for “stupid” high school pranks that may have gone too far and moved quickly to stamp out any notion that he bullied schoolmates because they were gay. His swift response reflected the Republican presidential candidate’s recognition that his record on gay rights is under heightened scrutiny following President Barack Obama’s embrace of gay marriage. One day after gay rights moved to the center of the presidential race with Obama’s announcement on same-sex marriage, a Washington Post report about Romney’s high school escapades nearly 50 years ago added a personal dimension to Democrats’ claim that he’s out of step on the sensitive topic. The newspaper reported that in one case, Romney and several schoolmates held down classmate John Lauber and cut off his bleached blond hair see ROMNEY page 10

March marks 3rd anniversary of murder of Wolfeboro woman CONCORD (AP) — About 80 people — including the five children of a slain New Hampshire woman — marched to the Statehouse on Thursday, the third anniversary of her death, to express their dissatisfaction that no arrest has been made. Stacey Keane Burns, 41, was found stabbed to death in her Wolfeboro home on Mother’s Day 2009. Her children at the time ranged in age from 7 to 15. “It’s an uphill battle, a struggle,” her 18-year-old son, Michael Burns, said of the family’s grief and frustration. “No kid
should ever have to go through this.” The youngest of the Burns children — 7-year-old twins Morgan and Madison — carried signs bearing a photo of their mother that read, “We Miss Our Mom!” and “Always in our Hearts.” Burns’ brother, sister and mother met privately with Senior Assistant Attorney General Jeffery Strelzin and investigators on Thursday morning before the march. Michael Keane, her brother, said the investigators apologized for how long the case has remained unsolved and reassured
them it’s not a cold case. “They’re dealing with not much evidence,” Keane said. “We believe they’re still working hard on it, but we’re frustrated.” “We’re trying to let them know we’re still here,” Keane added. Strelzin said it remains an active investigation, but he would not comment on whether an arrest is imminent or even foreseeable. “The majority of our cases are solved more quickly,” Strelzin said. “But there are see MURDER page 9
Biden apologized to Obama for putting him on the spot on gay marriage WASHINGTON (AP) — Shortly before President Barack Obama voiced his support for gay marriage, Vice President Joe Biden apologized to the president for comments that led him to speed up his public pronouncement. Biden and Obama spoke in the Oval Office on Wednesday, a person familiar with the exchange said, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss the private talk. Obama accepted his vice president’s apology, saying
he knew Biden was speaking from his heart when he declared in a television interview that he was “absolutely comfortable” with gay couples marrying. Biden’s comments pushed gay marriage to the forefront of the presidential race and focused a fresh spotlight on Obama’s vague position on the matter. The president, who once opposed gay marriage, had been saying for more than a year that his personal views were “evolving.”
The vice president spoke out on gay marriage without White House consent, leaving Obama aides deeply frustrated. In an interview with ABC News, Obama said he wasn’t angry at Biden, though he thought the vice president had gotten “a little bit over his skis” by voicing his support for gay marriage ahead of his boss. “Would I have preferred to have done this in my own way, in my own terms, withsee BIDEN page 13

Condodemetraky tells judge he’s just trying to promote transparency in government By Mike Mortensen FOR THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — A Belknap Superior Court judge must now decide whether a suit filed against the Town of Belmont and two of its officials is an effort to use the judicial system for political ends or an attempt to redress a legal wrong and so restore public confidence in the integrity of government. Lawyers for Belmont and Selectman Jon Pike asked Judge James Barry Jr. to dismiss the suit brought by resident George Condodemetraky over one selectman authorizing a cash settlement to another selectman. Condodemetraky, who is acting as his own attorney, said his suit was not based on politics, but principle, and should be allowed to proceed. The arguments were presented in a 20 minute hearing in Belknap County Superior Court Thursday afternoon. Barry asked no questions, but merely said he would take the matter under advisement “and issue a decision as soon as I can.” In his suit, naming Selectman Ronald Cormier, Town Administrator K. Jeanne Beaudin, as well as the town, Condodemetraky alleges that Cormier acted illegally when as a single selectman he

approved in the summer of 2011 a $11,000 cash settlement to Pike, who threatened to sue the town for taking him off the health insurance policy of his ex-wife who is a town employee several years earlier Pike argued that he was entitled to be covered at at town expense because former spouses of other town employees were able to remain covered. The payment to Pike was to reimburse him for the cost of buying his own insurance over an interim period. As part of the settlement he was put back on the town’s policy. “Mr. Condodemetraky is raising a political issue in a judicial proceeding,” Pike’s attorney Paul Fitzgerald told the court. “This is not the place for this issue to be dealt with.” He said the $11,000 settlement between the town and Pike was also a political issue which, if Condodemetraky wanted to fight it, he should do so before the Board of Selectmen or the Town Meeting. The town’s attorney, Laura Spector-Morgan, said that based on Condodemetraky’s petition the only issue before the court was whether Cormier or the town had violated the state’s Right-to-Know law. She denied there was any violation, and even if
there had been, any error was “cured” by a vote last month in which Cormier and newly elected Selectman Ruth Mooney reaffirmed the decision Cormier made alone in June 2011. “I’m here to promote transparency in government,” Condodemetraky told the judge in asking that the defendants’ dismissing motion be denied. He said that town officials “took advantage of an illegal practice (of allowing ex-spouses to remain on town employees’ health insurance) and keep it secret as long as they could.” He said the town’s refusal to given him information relative to the practice and those who allegedly benefited from it was proof of the town’s effort to keep the matter secret. He added the practice was never sanctioned, not was it official town policy, thereby making the payment to Pike illegal. Condodemetraky is asking the court to order Pike to return the money and also to remove him from office. Fitzgerald said that the only way the court could order Pike to relinquish his selectman’s post was if it was found he had violated his oath of office. Fitzgerald said that there was nothing in Pike’s actions that was inappropriate.
SHAKER from page one Graduate Studies from Plymouth State University. She holds certifications as a superintendent, principal, and special education administrator. Dreyer will relieve current interim Superintendent Tom Haley who is leaving at the end of June. The Shaker School Board plans to begin the process of looking for a new permanent superintendent in the fall. In other business, the School Board asked administrators to research the practice used in some school systems of having students pay to participate in sports and other extra curricular activities.
Haley explained after the meeting adjourned that the board is not proposing to go to a pay-for-play system, but wants to be prepared with current information about the practice should the issue be raised by those in the community. He said some districts have implemented the practice in response to budgetary pressures. The board also voted to raise the cost of cafeteria meals for students who do not qualify for free or reduced-priced meals beginning in the fall. Breakfast will cost $1.55, an increase of 5 cents. Lunch prices will go up 10 cents to $2.20 in the elementary school, and $2.45 in the middle and high schools.

Judge tells Manchester newspaper it didn’t ask Laconia for the right record By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — In an order issued this week Judge James O’Neill, III of Belknap County Superior Court dismissed a suit brought against the city by the Union Leader Corporation arising from the refusal of the city officials to release the identity of a local man burned in a fire. On January 30, two days after the incident a reporter from the Manchester newspaper company wrote to Fire Chief Ken Erickson and Police Chief Chris Adams asking them to “release the name of man who suffered severe burns in his home in the Millview Apartments, Saturday, Jan. 28 about 3:30 p.m.” The city withheld the man’s name citing the privacy provisions of the Health Insurance Portabilty and Accountability Act if 1996, known as HIPAA, and the Right-to-Know Law (RSA 91-A). Setting aside HIPAA, O’Neill turned to the Right-to-Know statute to decide the issue. He cited the opinion of the New Hampshire Supreme Court a suit brought by the Hampton Police Association against the Town of Hampton, in which the justices held “while the Right-to-Know Law guarantees ‘every citizen . . . the right to inspect . . . and to copy’ all public records ‘except as otherwise prohibited by statute,’ it specifically does not ‘require a public body or agency to compile, cross-reference, or assemble information into a form in which it is not already kept or reported by that body or agency.’” Applying the decision to the facts of
the case at hand, O’Neill found that the Union Leader “failed to request the right to inspect a public record,” but only asked officials to disclose the identity of the victim. Nor, he continued, did the newspaper “specify a governmental record on which the name of the victim would appear.” Instead, the judge suggested, the Union Leader appears to have asked the city “to create a record with only the name of the victim listed” and ruled, on the strength of case law, that “the city is not required to create a document that does not already exist.” Without knowing what record the newspaper requested, O’Neill concluded he could not determine whether or not the city complied with the Right-to-Know Law. In effect, O’Neill ruled that because the Union Leader failed to properly frame its request, the court could not or need not address the thornier questions posed by the city’s defense, namely whether the privacy provisions of either HIPAA or the Right-to-Know Law entitled its officials to withhold the identity of the victim of the fire. The Union Leader had stressed that the person in question had been transported in a taxpayer supported (Laconia Fire Department) vehicle and had been attended to by public employees. In return, the city noted the special relationship Laconia enjoys with LRGHealthcare whereby the nonprofit hospital company pays for the ambulances used in the city and helps pay the salaries of firefighter EMTs, all in return for keeping the money earned from ambulance runs.

The end of ‘One Europe’? How Europe’s crisis resolves itself as yet remains unknown. But with Sunday’s returns from France and Greece, the mega-trends on the Old Continent are unmistakable. And for the European Union, they are ominous. Nationalism — be it economic nationalism or ethnic nationalism — is ascendant. Transnationalism and multiculturalism are in headlong if not irreversible retreat. The European project is itself imperiled. To be sure, no one should underestimate the commitment of Europe’s elites to the vision of One Europe as challenger to the United States. In the capitals and corporate headquarters of the continent, these elites are, almost to a man and woman, devout Europeans. Yet their ability to keep Europe on course until its peoples have yielded up their sovereignty and agreed to submerge themselves in a single entity is now in question. From Paris to Athens, the radical left and the nationalist right are resurgent. Marxists and patriots dream different dreams than the disciples of Jean Monnet. Consider what the French electorate just said. In the first round of voting, communists and radicals took 11-percent. Their leader, Jean-Luc Melenchon, endorsed the socialist Francois Hollande, who went on to win Sunday. President Nicolas Sarkozy, who ran second in the first round with only 27-percent, raised his total Sunday to 48-percent. Though Marine Le Pen of the National Front had refused to endorse him, Sarkozy openly courted her voters. As Marine put it, they call us racists, protectionists and xenophobes. Then they come asking for our endorsement, echo our words and seek our votes. The near 30-percent the National Front and far left combined pulled in the first round is unprecedented in the annals of the Fifth Republic. In Greece, the returns were equally dramatic. PASOK, the governing center-left party, ran third with 13-percent of the vote. New Democracy, the center-right party that is in coalition with PASOK, ran first but won only 19-percent. These two parties saw their combined support sliced in half since the last election and may be unable to form a government that can continue to impose the austerity the German-led eurozone is demanding as the price of Greece’s bailout. The parties that gained most were the communists with 7-percent, Syriza, a radical-left party, with 17-percent, and Golden Dawn, a farright party that has called for land mines on the border, with 7-percent. All three will bedevil any coalition that accedes to German demands. What is causing the collapse of the center in Europe?
The austerity being imposed by Germany and her hard-money allies in the north of Europe on the indebted nations of the south of Europe. Across the continent, voices are rising to demand that a growth package be attached to Angela Merkel’s fiscal pact. But a growth package means tax cuts and spending increases. How do Europe’s nations provide these without adding to deficits and national debts, which mean new borrowing and the higher interest rates that are a primary cause of the present crisis? The debtor nations seem to be saying this: “Yes, we have been addicted to the narcotic of deficit spending. But we cannot survive going cold turkey. If you force us into it, our people will rebel and throw us out. Before we can give up the drugs, we need a new fix.” From inception, the European project was built on a Faustian bargain. If the nations of Europe would surrender their sovereignty, let their identities be diluted through immigration and open borders, and submerge themselves in a larger and more inclusive Europe, their peoples would be rewarded with an unparalleled prosperity. Surrender your souls, and we will make you rich, secure and happy, said the eurocrats to the peoples of Europe. After two terrible wars, Europe’s peoples took the bribe. Free-riding off America’s defense, enjoying a prosperity produced by internal free trade and the explosive growth of their welfare states, financed at low interest rates once the euro was accepted as the common currency, they came to relish the good times. Now the bill has come due. Greece, Italy, Portugal and Spain must sacrifice and suffer to pay for these good times. Their public sectors must be pared back, pensions reduced, retirement age advanced. They must work harder and longer for all the years it takes to put their fiscal houses in order and pay back what they owe. The left is saying is: We want our pensions restored, our public employees rehired. If our leaders need more money, take it from the rich, take it from the banks, take it from the big corporations. The right is saying: We want our countries and culture back. We want our borders closed. We want no more immigration from the rest or Europe or the rest of the world. Let France be France again. Let Greece be Greece again. Tribalism, radicalism and socialism are the growth stocks of the new Europe.

LETTERS All who disagree with him were born of authoritarian parents? To the editor, Why oh why does the professor of psychology from Plymouth State University wax paradoxical with such perplexing regularity. I somewhat masochistically always read his column with all the zeal of a sick man slugging down a dose of cod liver oil. Freedom of speech is arguably the most important of all our freedoms and I want to know what is in the head of those from the leftist land of liberal Oz. I have shown remarkable restraint by not responding to this scholarly Don Quixote for quite some time. There is no way I could improve on W. Richard Doerre’s critique of the professor’s “Parenting of Nazis” so I will only point out the professor’s “generalizing” even as he accuses the right of doing the same thing. Does he, or his proof reader, even understand the hypocrisy of his latest column? He says, “It is as if I hit a nerve with all the authoritarians most of whom are people on the far right”. This is liberal code-speak for anyone who is not of the liberal persuasion. He is not referring to Nazi skinheads or the KKK, but rather all conservatives and tea party types. Here is where “General Oxymoron” generalizes in a manner that makes one want to elect him as president of the Loyal Order of Patronizing Paradoxes. Professor Sandy goes on to pontificate, “When I read about the fanatical obsession and indiscriminate violence of fundamentalist Muslims and their American counterparts preoccupied with anti-Muslim fear and hatred that has been “generalized” to all Muslims — legal and illegal — I wonder how similar their childhoods might have been”. Does this man encased in his academic enclave of condescension care not a whit about how he puts down those who disagree with him? Similar childhoods to Osama bin Laden, Khalid Shiekh Mohammad, Major Nidal
Hasan and members of al-Qaeda, the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas, Hezbollah, the Taliban etc? Surely you jest! The man equates our fear and loathing of radical Islamist Jihadists as equivalent to their desire to eradicate all of western civilization. Equating those of us fearful of the growth of radical Islam and Sharia Law with those who murder in the name of Allah and who rape women and young girls as their way of honoring and emulating the Prophet Mohammed, who married a six year old girl and consummated that marriage when the girl was only nine years old. Equating us with a culture that seeks to eradicate all homosexuals from their lands. This from the counselor of civil discourse? Yikes! So, does Professor Sandy truly believe it is we who are the counterparts of those who bespeak evil to all infidels? Leo Sandy is the poster child for authoritarian elitism and yet thinks all those who disagree with him are borne of audacious, authoritarian parents. It is so ironic that I, raised by loving and authoritarian parents and thus imbued with a strong moral compass and a healthy respect for God and country, do arrive at the following conclusion: I actually like professor Sandy because I know his heart is in the right place and he wants peace as do all of us. It is only his behavior that I believe really stinks. I still have hope that his negative behavior and lack of critical thinking towards those who disagree with him will progress toward a more realistic and prescient view of how the world works. Yes, I can separate the behavior from the person. That’s the kind of parent I am. God love Professor Leo R. Sandy.

I won’t sign petition for anyone who threatens First Amendment To the editor, A couple of quick questions regarding the New Language Police in Laconia. Will letters to the editor be censored? Will the radio station that carries Rush Limbaugh be responsible for Rush’s observations that are not acceptable to the NLPL? When Liberals like “Sandy”, “Ray”,
ers or the host during my radio program, will they be incarcerated for using their First Amendment right? I will not sign any petition from anyone that threatens the First. Just another example of the “Wimp Nation” we have become. Control our thoughts, control our speech. Niel Young

LETTERS Who among them have lifted stone to wall the pasture land?
At Bristol Town Meeting, we all listened from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
To the editor, “Something there is that doesn’t love a wall,” Frost wrote. in the poem Frost questions the repair of them. Asks what might be walled in or out, thought it better there be none but it would give offense. The walls were put up to pasture land, as a constructive way of piling the stone as the fields were cleared. They were put up to mark a boundary, to run along the path or road, not to offend but to dress the land. Wood had been used but it rotted and its other uses gained priority. Without fencing, livestock easily dispersed. Several hundred years later, after the Civil War, the fields were emptied of the livestock as the open lands of the west were sought. N.H. adopted as new nationalities moved in. The walls were not torn down then. As the state lent its sense of freedom, later enshrined as it motto: ‘Live free or die’. They too thrived with a sense of purpose. A few years back a state law was passed concerning the theft of the stones. Sadly no laws have been passed concerning the theft of our freedoms. The fields were cleared by hand, horse and rope and not necessarily for the lack of anything else to do. Walls were built to the best of one’s ability, from what was at hand, and with the
To the editor, The recent headlines proclaiming the annual Bristol Town Meeting to be unjust, unfair, and conspiratorial is a prime example of why good people do not run for office. Sometime in the past 20-30 years it has become acceptable for any discontented citizen, voter, visitor, or malcontent to expect it is okay to insult elected, or appointed officials as well as the majority of voters at a particular meeting. Such is the case of the Bristol voter who claims to not understand the system, and, therefore, was unable to give her opinion. Besides being unable to give her opinion on some specific warrant articles, she viewed the moderator as being part of the conspiracy. This was totally unfair. Many things may be true of Bristol’s Town Meetings, but those are two items that are just not on the list. Bristol’s Moderator, Ned Gordon, is as fair in his daily life and more so when he puts on that moderator hat. That particular meeting went for approximately seven hours. If she did not have time to speak up somewhere between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. then my thought is that she did not have much to say. The moderator in Bristol is particularly known for running a considerate meeting and being a fair person and this meeting was no different. He overturned a vote to let a gentleman get his two cents into the discussion, explained articles and encouraged those attending to participate and ask questions if they did not understand. He abided by the will of the
constant care necessary where stones are heaved up by frost through the soil. Just as the land was cleared, so too was the soul, as men of conscience are aware of the mind and its need for tending. To town once a week, to the city some time in the year, it wasn’t easy to sit listening to sermons to rid all thoughts. The society too walled itself, no higher than the stones needed to be cleared could be added to them. Few found little need to change things in government as it met once every other year, what with the counties and people tending well enough to themselves. There hasn’t been another migration out of the state, but one into it, at least in its mindset. The piece of land which one might fish now locked away, valued beyond the means of most; pasture land too is set upon by small gated communities, much like the apartment towers in the city. A mindset of those in government seeking to control the people for the good of society and their own. Who among them have lifted stone to wall the pasture land, spending time with their conscience? Not many can in such quiet circumstance and intense labor, time and weather. Perhaps it is well there are few such left for them to rule. G.W. Brooks Meredith
Who among them have lifted stone to wall the pasture land? To the editor, L.J. Siden’s letter of May 9 was quite interesting, except, as usual, he hides behind selected news stories, and then, like the nutty professor hides behind an old useless book. Sorry L.J., the obvious errors of an obscure book don’t alter the facts one tiny bit! As one who managed to qualify as “sharpshooter” at the Naval Academy
in Annapolis, I understand guns and don’t want to use them, BUT I still have my father’s collection, AND keep them in clean working order. The NRA supports our rights in the Constitution (which you refuse to even acknowledge) to have guns for our own protection. Jack Stephenson Gilford
voters at that particular meeting as he does at every meeting that he presides over. When it got to be time to go home he took a vote on a legitimate motion and a large majority agreed that it was time to go home. We had been there long enough. The person who felt their feelings got trod upon has been to enough meetings in the Town of Bristol to know what is going on. This was not a new experience for her. Her assumptions that the Board of Selectmen, the Budget Committee and the moderator were all in cahoots is laughable. This particular selectman thinks that perhaps we should be looking at a May meeting instead of a March meeting. The fiscal year will need to change, but there are several ways that can be done if the voters so wish. As for separating the fire and ambulance expenses and revenues, I cannot believe that this is an insurmountable task either. At another time, or another meeting those items will come up for discussion. The cries of “you did not listen to me” vanish in the air under the light of day and the reality of the public access television camera. We all listened for a full day. I know it takes courage, but sometimes you just need to stand and say your piece and not wait for when it feels right. The truth is that when it is all said and done we are still all members of the community, friends and neighbors which is a good way to keep it. Joe Denning Bristol Selectman

LETTERS Capitalism is best solution to problems facing the sick & poor To the editor, The socialist clap trap tide never stops washing on to the pages of The Daily Sun. Nancy Parsons floated in on high tide Tuesday with a full boat load. The truth is, Nancy, no human being of what ever political persuasion, color or creed intentionally wants to inflict suffering on any human being. To think otherwise is a character flaw. The socialist altruism argument Nancy blabbers endlessly is one that has never been WEAKER at anytime in history. One only needs to visit the complete and total economic collapse unfolding across all of Europe, from Greece to Spain, where countries follow the ever expanding ever more costly, central control, socialist-style government Nancy Parsons never stops promoting. These countries are flat busted, BROKE, solely because they run welfare states where people have figured out it is far better not to work than work. When they do work they are among the most inefficient in the world. Even in the United States someone has to find a job making at least $30,000 to be more attractive to work than stay on welfare. So what do millions of Americans do? They stay on welfare and live off the WORK of OTHERS. Every dollar of increased welfare increases the incentive to remain unemployed and the reasons to work less. Democrats can NEVER stop thinking up reasons and “ carrots” NOT TO WORK. The problem with your arguments, Nancy, is you never say — besides the rich — who is going to PAY for for your care and the care of 30-million others. SOMEONE PAYS for your care Nancy. Is it only the rich who will pay for better education in America? Is it only the rich who will pay for your health care and the 30-million others who cannot afford it? Is it only the rich who will pay to bail out Social Security? Is it only the rich who will bail out Medicare? Is it only the rich who will bail out Obamacare when it goes bankrupt? Is it only the rich who will bail out the Post Office? Is it only the rich who will provide higher wages to
policemen? Is it only the rich who will provide better benefits to firemen? Democrats never stop demagoguing the rich because it instills in the mind those weak of character and the envious, a whiff of punitive pleasure equal to a cocaine high. The intent of welfare blubbering is political control by dividing the country along economic lines or social lines or cultural lines or racial lines to accumulate voting blocks whose best interests have been pitted one against another. Ninty-five percent of blacks will vote for Obama and the vast majority of whites will vote for Romney. WHY IS THAT? Because Obama has decided DIVIDING the country, not uniting it, improves his chances of re election. Any person trying to stop the United States from falling off the same financial cliff as Europe is seen by Nancy and Democrats as their enemy. Some one like Paul Ryan trying to reduce America’s exploding budget deficit is to be ridiculed and smeared. If reducing the amount America owes means it affects Nancy, then dial 7424 (RICH). Dial those numbers and you get the RICH on any phone. Democrats love to “kick the can” because fixing anything takes courage they just do not have. Obama’s own hand picked Bowles-Simpson commission spelled out the way forward and he spit in their face and Nancy bad mouths Paul Ryan because it is politically expedient to do so. It is a well-running capitalist society that in fact is the best solution to the problems facing Nancy, the sick and the poor, no matter how they got that way whether it be poor luck or poor choices. A vibrant economy creates the highest levels of output needed to fill the tax coffers that best tends to the needs of those who have fallen through the socialist safety nets. No president in modern history has been a worst failure at turning a sputtering economy around than Barack Obama. There are still 5-million more people unemployed TODAY than the day he took office. The vast majority of Americans say the country is still on the wrong track and Obama

you are not a wonderful, thoughtful and caring person. But your beliefs push this country ever closer to an European style, economic collapse for every family in America. As long as Barack Obama remains in office we will proceed inch by inch closer. No one will work and all will be entitled to free government paid education through college, free government paid health care from birth, free housing because we all will qualify and free burial. That is the the Utopian socialist economy you keep pushing. Funny, every time we talk about reducing the wages of teachers or firemen or police or nurses they become totally unglued and incensed with anger. The Nancy’s of the world believe they are ENTITLED to FREE but the people providing her services want to be paid good money and ever more money. Nancy says, dial 7424 ( RICH) it solves everything. It was the same thing the Greeks have said for the past 10 years and you see how that ended up. Tony Boutin Gilford
Thanks for your efforts & your prayers during our pet emergency To the editor, We are writing this letter to thank all of the many caring people we discovered during our recent pet emergency. There are too many of you to try to name, but you know who you are and how much it means to us. When our therapy dogs, Kachina and Takoda got frightened and ran from our yard on Sunday, April 29, there was an instant rallying of neighbors to secure them. Kachina was found behind a house on Rt. 140 in Belmont, but her mate, Takoda got scared and ran away before we could get to the location. It was at that point that panic set in. Imagining the worst, it felt like a piece or our heart had been taken. We began letting as many people possible know that, although Takoda was a doberman, he was gentle but could not be approached.
It was during the upcoming four days that we realized that there were hundreds of people praying for his safe return, and we are certain that those prayers, supporting and guiding of the individuals actually doing the searching, resulted in him being home and safe on Thursday evening. In a world that seems to only care for itself, it is gratifying to see this outpouring of caring and faith when one of God’s creatures are in danger. Only His hand kept Takoda safe from the busy highways of Routes 140 and 106, and from the bears and coyotes that occupy the woods in that area. It is with a grateful heart that we say, May God Bless Everyone for their efforts and prayers that brought our four-day nightmare to a happy end. John & Carolyn Bancroft Belmont
Where do we draw the line on taxpayer support for churches? To the editor, In the N.H. Sunday News May 6 editorial endorsing prayers as more than fair trade for plowing church parking lots, the editor exemplified the blind extremism of religion. Typically the N.H. Sunday News editorials defend the public (taxpayers) from inappropriate and outrageous government spending but in this case because of the editor’s personal religious beliefs he finds it perfectly okay to impose the burden of plowing expenses on the rest of the population no matter what value they may place on prayer. His blindness to this particular breech of good sense (that government should be principled in how it spends other
people’s money) is particularly ironic in the context of the accompanying opinion page’s “BLINDNESS” cartoon regarding the human rights of Chinese dissident Chen Guangcheng. On what basis does one draw the line on how much taxpayer support the multiple special interest church entities should receive? It’s already ridiculous that places of ritualistic ceremonies are property tax exempt while homes (essential shelter) are heavily taxed. Concerned citizen Richard Meaney is owed an apology for the editor’s sarcastic mocking of his legitimate concern. David M. Zebuhr Gilford

has threatened or demonized just about every businesses in America with higher taxes and more regulation which produces one reaction, LOWER BUSINESS INVESTMENT and companies hoarding their cash rather than hiring. Uncertainty as to who or what Obama will threaten next has produced a paralyzed American economy. Who cannot wait to vote for OBAMA to keep 23-million people jobless or looking for more work? Nancy Parsons because Obama promises to do what? Hand out more welfare and create more debt for my kids and YOUR KIDS to pay off. Nancy may not be able to physically work but her vote assures 23-million more, very able bodied people will not find work either. Every Obama vote is a vote for a far worse economy than we should have. Barack Obama has one great success. That has been filling the gullible American public looking for a painless fee lunch with BS right up to their ever love’n eye balls. Nancy, this is nothing personal in any way. I have no reason to believe
To the editor, I would like to thank the Sanbornton voters who took the time to “write me in” for the two-year Budget Committee term. You have given me an opportu-

Highlight of Sanbornton Town Meeting was debate over buying 4.76 acres for possible construction of new town hall By Mike Mortensen SANBORNTON — In one of the shortest Town Meetings in recent memory, Sanbornton residents on Wednesday night approved a $3.65-million budget and another $1 million in special spending in little more than two hours. Of all the issues on the 11 article Town Warrant the one that generated the most debate was the proposal to purchase 4.76 acres next to and behind the Old Town Hall in the Sanbornton Square area of town. The purchase price the voters were asked to approve was $60,000. Selectmen Chairman Guy Giunta explained that purchase would provide the town with a location to build a new town office facility some time in the future in a location that was in the center of town. He also said that the purchase would allow the town to control land immediately adjacent to the Old Town Hall on Tower Hill Road. He said the 4.76-acre parcel included a right-of-way from the land out to the road, which would allow a buyer to put in a driveway just feet from the side of the historic building, which serves as the town’s polling place. “This is a long-term investment” Giunta said. But others criticized the purchase as unnecessary and too costly. Town Tax Collector Jane Goss said the land is assessed for tax purposes at $28,000. Acknowledging that selectmen would be unhappy that she was going on the record as against the purchase, she said that given economic conditions and the difficulty some people were having in paying their property
taxes this was not a good time for the town to be paying far and above what a piece of property was worth for a speculative purpose. Curt Mcgee urged that a decision whether to purchase the property be postponed to give the town more time to look for an alternative location for a new town office building. Fellow resident Don Bormes was also opposed to the purchase. “We don’t need to pay for more land purchase until we get rid of some of the land we have now,” he said referring to the 49 parcels of land the town already owns. Voters ultimately approved the purchase by a vote of 78-67, but only after taking a second vote to resolve what resident Nina Gardner said appeared to be confusion on the part of some at the meeting on the procedure used when the article was voted on the first time. The result of that first vote was 73-63. In other business: — Appropriations of funds for EMS billing paramedic intercept fees, EMS equipment and supplies, and firefighter protective clothing, from special reserve funds (not from general tax revenue) were approve. — Replacement of a tanker truck for the Fire Department at a cost of $269,000, and purchase of police cruiser for $34,000 passed unanimously. — Transfer of $180,000 into capital reserve funds for equipment purchases, bridge repairs and maintenance of facilities passed unanimously. — The appropriation of $509,000 to lease heavy equipment for Highway Department and make improvements to town roads was passed with no debate.
MURDER from page 2 some cases that take weeks, months, even years to solve and there are some cases that are never solved.” The marchers carried pink and green balloons and most wore pink or green shirts — Stacey Burns’ favorite colors. “We’re a group of people demonstrating in color and in volume,” said childhood friend Jennifer McCarthy of Natick, Mass. “We want people to remember her. We think of her every day. She was vibrant, caring, always smiling. “We want answers,” McCarthy said. “She deserves it. Her family deserves it.” Keane said the Burns children live with their father, Ed Burns, in Millis, Mass. and are doing well.
The group marched from a parking lot on Fort Eddy Road nearly a half-mile to the Statehouse, where Keane addressed the crowd from atop the steps. “I don’t know how much we can accomplish today but I know this sure feels good,” Keane shouted. “It’s important we take care of Stacey’s children. They were the most important thing in her life.” Keane said they had hoped to meet with Gov. John Lynch, but Lynch was making stops around the state. They met instead with Colin Manning, the governor’s spokesman, who offered condolences and reassurances that the case continues to be investigated. “She was taken from us in a very horrible and violent way,” Keane told him.

WYATT PARK from page one ball. “I want to know what we should do?” “I don’t want anyone to be unhappy in their home,” said a woman in the crowd, “but I don’t want to take anything away from the kids.” Speaking for what proved a majority, Sheri Minor said that “it’s not fair to say we want a family park with no basketball.” Mickey Donovan, a former standout on the high school, college and professional gridiron who grew up alongside the Perrinos, asked for a show of hands on keeping the basketball court then, with a clear majority in favor, asked “how are we going to deal with the problems? Maybe we as a community who live around the park can help.” Dunleavy suggested what he called “positive loitering,” explaining “if you can come together, use the park and have a presence there, things will change.” Echoing Dunleavy, Police Chief Chris Adams acknowledged “there is no question there is activity down there that is very inappropriate” and stressed that “it’s about changing the culture.” Pointing to Sanborn Park in Lakeport, once the scene of “fights, stabbings and drug dealing” but now a popular neighborhood park, he said that change comes when “the good people outnumber the bad people” and insisted “it can be done.” Adams said that the police have made a project of Wyatt Park, led by Sergeants Richard Simmons
and Gary Hubbard, marked by an increased presence in the neighborhood and developing close relationships with residents. He said that the department will host a public meeting to share what they have learned and offer recommendations for addressing the culture around the park. As for the basketball court, Adams said that “if it is used for what it is intended to be used for, it can be a great asset to the community.” George Chatham, who grew up Dorchester, a tough section of Boston, and Hedi Bright of Belmont, both proposed summer basketball leagues and three-on-three tournaments for boys and girls of all ages. Dunleavy said that the next step will be to develop a master plan for the park, estimate the cost of the improvements and prepare a request for funds for the City Council. Meanwhile, Amy Lovisek, assistant director of parks and recreation, intends to marshal residents in an effort to enhance the neighborhood, including the park, drawing on a $10,000 grant awarded to the city by the Foundation for Healthy Communities. The city received the grant, she said, “because you wanted change at Wyatt Park.” Lovisek said that by next month she expects to have formed a coalition of volunteers who together will decide how to apply the funds to improve the neighborhood. Urging those present to join the effort, she said that “I really hope you will be part of this.”
ROMNEY from page 2 after seeking him out in his dorm room at their boarding school in the wealthy Detroit suburb of Bloomfield Hills, Mich. The Post said Lauber was “perpetually teased for his nonconformity and presumed homosexuality” and that he screamed for help as Romney held him down. The paper recounted another incident in which Romney shouted “atta girl” to a different student at the all-boys’ school who, years later, came out as gay. “I participated in a lot of hijinks and pranks during high school and some may have gone too far. And for that I apologize,” Romney told Fox News’ Brian Kilmeade during a hastily arranged radio interview. Romney said he didn’t remember the Lauber incident from long ago, but didn’t dispute that it happened. He stressed that he didn’t know either student was gay. The Republican presidential candidate had begun the day by treading softly on Obama’s historic embrace of same-sex marriage, which seems likely to fire up liberal and conservative activists alike. He quietly restated his opposition to legalizing such marriages, but his campaign turned its full attention to energy, the economy and other issues. Then the boarding school story was posted online and Romney moved quickly to counter any suggestion he had targeted students because they were gay. “That was the furthest thing from our minds back in the 1960s, so that was not the case,” he said, adding that the students involved “didn’t come out of the closet until years later.” According to the Post account, Romney was upset about how Lauber
into his eyes. “He can’t look like that. That’s wrong. Just look at him!” Romney told Matthew Friedemann, a close Romney friend and one of five classmates who recalled the incident for The Post. A few days later, Romney led a group of boys out of his dorm room at Cranbrook School and into Lauber’s, where the group tackled him and held him down. Romney cut his hair with scissors as a teary-eyed Lauber screamed for help. “If there was anything I said that was offensive to someone, I certainly am sorry about that,” he said, adding that “there was no harm intended.” Romney’s campaign has previously highlighted the candidate’s reputation as a high school prankster in an attempt to humanize him. In a second interview Thursday, Romney laid out what he said was his long-held position on gay rights: While opposed to gay marriage, he said states should be allowed to grant various domestic partnership rights to same-sex couples, including the right to adopt children. “States could have their own decisions with regards to the domestic partnership rights,” Romney told Fox News. “But my preference would be to have a national standard for marriage, and that marriage would be defined as being between a man and a woman.” He said he would go as far as supporting gay couples who want to adopt children, saying: “If two people of the same gender want to live together, want to have a loving relationship and even want to adopt a child — in my state, individuals of the same sex are able to adopt children — in my view, that’s something which people have

Pat, Tom & a community effort transforms Grange Hall into new Tilton Senior Center By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
TILTON — Just two years ago there was talk of razing the Grange Hall, which a member of the Budget Committee called “a money pit,” but yesterday the venerable building, restored to its former glory, took on a new life as home to the Tilton Senior Center. Fittingly Barbara Salley, one of the first senior citizens assisted by Caring Hands Assisting Tilton (CHAT), the group formed in 2009 of volunteers to meet the needs of the “forgotten few,” cut the ribbon. Pat Consentino, who with Tom Gallant provided the inspiration and leadership that established CHAT and renovated the hall, said that the center provided “a place for our seniors to enjoy each other and have the comfort of a home.” Rather than demolishing the hall, the town was persuaded to contribute $20,000 toward its renovation. Consentino said that the community raised another $73,000 in cash and kind to complete the first phase of the project. Gallant’s firm, Up Country Builders, served as general contractor, winning the
job by excluding labor costs from its bid. A host of local businesses, including Home Depot, AutoServ, Walmart, Kohl’s and Tanger Outlet Center provided materials, appliances, furnishings and volunteers. The center has a fully equipped kitchen, featuring the original gas stove, with 10 burners and a double oven, that served the Grange. The spacious hall, crowned by a high patterned ceiling surrounded by an ornate cornice, is comfortably furnished and its walls are dotted with mementos of the town’s past. Large windows flood the room with light and a colorful mural graces the wall behind the stage. “This was truly a community effort,” said Selectman Joe Jesseman. “But Pat and Tom, they’re the two people, the driving force.” Just the day before the ribbon cutting Consentino was honored by Governor John Lynch at the Statehouse with the Joseph D. Vaughan Award, given annually to an individual or couple for each county, 60 years old or older, in recognition of their outstanding service on behalf of senior citizens. Appropriately enough, Gallant received the award a year ago.

Celtics beat Hawks 83-80 to close out playoff series BOSTON (AP) — Kevin Garnett had 28 points and 14 rebounds, hitting a jumper to give Boston the lead with 31 seconds left, and the Celtics beat the Atlanta Hawks 83-80 in Game 6 on Thursday night to win their first-round playoff series and advance to the Eastern Conference semifinals for the fifth straight year. The Celtics will play the Philadelphia 76ers, who eliminated East No. 1 seed Chicago in six games with a 79-78 victory earlier Thursday. Garnett topped his regular-season high of 25 points and had five blocks and three steals for Boston, which has won at least one playoff series every year since the new Big 3 was assembled. Paul Pierce had 18 points despite playing with a sprained medial collateral ligament in his left knee, and Rajon Rondo had 14 points and eight assists. Josh Smith had 19 points and nine rebounds for Atlanta, which failed to advance in the playoffs for the first time in four years. Joe Johnson had 17 points, Marvin Williams added 16 and eight rebounds and Al Horford had 15 points and nine rebounds. But Horford missed the first of two foul shots with 2.3 seconds left after he was tackled by Marquis Daniels to avoid an easy dunk that would have tied the game. After he made the second, the Celtics got the ball to Pierce, he was fouled and made both free throws. Instead of having to face Chicago on the road — even without injured star Derrick Rose — the

Celtics will have home-court advantage against eighth-seeded Philadelphia. The Hawks went 5 minutes without scoring early in the fourth quarter as the Celtics turned a twopoint game into a 74-65 lead. But Atlanta scored 10 of the next 12 points, with Horford scoring the last three baskets, making it a one-point game on an alley-oop pass from Smith with 3:52 left. Smith faked at the top of the key and went right down the lane for a dunk that gave Atlanta its first lead of the second half, 77-76. Horford drove to the basket to give the Hawks a three-point lead. Atlanta still led 79-78 when Garnett made a turnaround jumper in the lane over Smith to put Boston ahead by one. Smith missed a long rainbow jumper and Ray Allen got the rebound with 10 seconds left, but he made only one of two free throws. With 10 seconds left, Johnson drove to the basket but Pierce blocked his shot and Garnett tipped it out of bounds with 3.1 seconds left. The Hawks got the ball in to Horford in the lane but as he went up for the dunk or layup Daniels, who played just one minute in the game, wrapped him up and kept him from scoring. The first foul shot went off the rim, costing Atlanta a chance to tie it. ARIZONA from page 2 the civil rights division. The main issue that caused talks to break down last month was federal officials’ insistence that Arpaio agree to a court-appointed monitor for the department. Arpaio objected, saying it would undermine his authority. “I am not going to surrender my office to the federal government,” a visibly angry Arpaio said at an afternoon news conference. “I will fight this to the bitter end.” The lawsuit means that a federal judge will decide the escalating, long-standing dispute. The Justice Department, which had been investigating Arpaio on civil rights allegations for more than three years and faced a similar impasse earlier in the investigation, said it was left with no choice but to sue the sheriff to seek the court-appointed monitor it wants to oversee the law enforcement agency. The DOJ had filed another lawsuit against Arpaio that alleged his office refused to fully cooperate with a request for records and access to jails and employees. It was settled last summer after the office complied. The latest lawsuit comes as part of the DOJ’s effort to enforce a law passed after the verdict in the Rodney King police brutality case and the Los Angeles riots. It bans police from systematically violating constitutional rights. see next page

BIDEN from page one think, there being a lot of notice to everybody? Sure,” Obama said. “But all’s well that ends well.” By the time Biden’s interview on NBC’s “Meet The Press” aired on Sunday morning, a handful of close Obama aides knew that the president had already finished that evolution. He had decided to speak publicly about his personal support for gay marriage sometime before the Democratic convention in early September.
Correction: Laconia defibrillators bought with Bike Week proceeds
An article in Friday’s The Daily Sun mistakenly reported that the Fire Department purchased a pair of Automatic External Defibrillators (AEDs) with a grant from the state. In fact, the City Council appropriated $2,000 from the revenues generated by Motorcycle Week to buy the AEDs, which were purchased at a discounted price from inventory acquired by the state with a grant from federal government. from preceding page Normally, settlements are filed in court as part of lawsuits that aren’t contested by the police agencies. Since the law’s passage, federal officials said that only once before has the Justice Department filed a lawsuit against a police department with which they were unable to reach an agreement. In 1999, they filed a lawsuit against Columbus, Ohio, police, but the two sides eventually settled, Perez said.
The White House and Obama’s presidential campaign at first tried to play down Biden’s remarks, insisting that the vice president had gone no further in support of equal rights for same-sex couples. But gay rights advocates latched onto Biden’s remarks, declaring him the highest-ranking U.S. official to support gay marriage. Education Secretary Arne Duncan, a longtime friend of the president, stirred the political pot further on Monday, declaring unequivocally that he also supported gay marriage. By Tuesday morning, the president came to the conclusion that he couldn’t stay silent on the issue any further. The White House hastily arranged a television interview with ABC News for Wednesday, during which Obama explained to the public that he had decided it was important for him to “affirm that same-sex couples should be able to get married.” Just Good!

Local businessmen represent finalists at NH Arts Awards on Monday
Winnipesaukee Playhouse Vice Chair John Malm of Meredith Village Savings Bank and Chairman Christopher Boothby of Boothby Therapy Services. (Courtesy photo)
LACONIA — Two local businessmen with ties to The Winnipesaukee Playhouse have had their businesses recognized for their commitment to arts causes by the New Hampshire Business Committee for the Arts. The NHBCA was formed in 1985 to educate, motivate, and recognize business support of and participation in the arts. The reception for its annual awards ceremony will be held on Monday, May 14. Playhouse Chairman Christopher Boothby and Vice Chair John Malm will be in attendance as their businesses, Boothby Therapy Services and Meredith Village Savings Bank, are both finalists for the awards. The Winnipesaukee Playhouse has recently begun demolition work on the former Annalee Doll campus in Meredith to allow construction to begin on a new state-of-the-art theatre complex. The Playhouse has raised roughly half of the needed funds to complete the project and the Capital Campaign is ongoing. The amount raised so far is due in large part to
support of local businesses like Hampshire Hospitality Holdings, Bonnette, Page and Stone, Common Man, Northway Bank, Bank of New Hampshire and Franklin Savings Bank, who all purchased NH CDFA Tax Credits, along with Meredith Village Savings Bank and Boothby nTherapy Services. John Malm, Vice President for Relationship Banking at MVSB, joined the Playhouse as a Trustee and Vice Chair in January. Since then he has taken on the task of spearheading the Capital Campaign and sees how local businesses, such as Meredith Village Savings Bank, play a huge part in enriching the cultural landscape of the Lakes Region. He feels that “while MVSB is honored to be recognized for what we have accomplished, we see this nomination as an opportunity to share with our clients and business partners what can be accomplished by working collaboratively. The Winnipesaukee Playhouse is one example of local arts organizations which are expanding their services to meet the need for local residents to participate in all aspects of production and execution of theatre and arts education. I would urge other businesses and individuals to join MVSB in support of The Winnipesaukee Playhouse.” Christopher Boothby, who owns Boothby Therapy Services along with his wife Maren, sees its support of the arts as an essential part of its mission of Helping Children Succeed. Boothby Therapy Services purchased $75,000 in tax credits in support of The Winnipesaukee Playhouse and also partnered with the Raymond School District in the creation of a theatre production for children who use alternative communication devices such as iPads. Boothby emphasizes how companies can find synergy between doing well and doing good. “We know that our local children require a vibrant arts culture to succeed as contributing members of our community. Whether it is summoning the courage to step on stage for the first time, write and produce their own

MOULTONBOROUGH — A historical and musical treat is in story for at the Moultonborough Historical Society meeting on Monday, May 14. Jeff Warner will present a NH Humanities Council program entitled “Banjos, Bones, and Ballads” at the Moultonborough Public Library at 7 p.m. Banjos and ballads are familiar to all, and for those who have never encountered musical bones, they are an ancient instrument consisting of two pieces of wood held in each hand and rhythmically rapped together to provide a beat to go along with the melody. The use of bones as a musical instrument dates back to antiquity, and Irish, French-Canadian, blues, bluegrass, and zydeco musical styles all use the bones. Warner’s program includes traditional songs, rich in local history and a sense of place, presenting the latest news from the distant past. They help to interpret present-day life with an understanding of the working people who built our country. Tavern songs, banjo tunes, 18th century New England hymns, sailor songs, and humorous stories about traditional singers and their songs highlight this informative program.
Warner grew up listening to the songs and stories of his father Frank Warner and the traditional singers his parents met during their folksong collecting trips through rural America. He accompanied his parents on their later field trips and is the editor of his mother’s book, Traditional American Folk Songs: From the Anne and Frank Warner Collection. He is producer of the two-CD set, “Her Bright Smile Haunts Me Still,” the Warners’ recordings of rural singers, many of them born in Victorian times. “The scion of one of the nation’s most eminent families of folksong collectors, he represents a tradition that is fundamentally unbroken since preindustrial times” (Stuart Frank, Senior Curator, New Bedford Whaling Museum). Warner has performed widely, from large festivals in the UK, to clubs, festivals and schools across America. He plays concertina, banjo, guitar and several “pocket” instruments, including bones and spoons. A native of New York City, Jeff has lived in Portsmouth since the late 1990s. The program is free and open to the public, and the library is handicapped accessible. For more information, call the library at 476-8895.

Shaker and Buddhist values will be compared during Tibetan monks visit to Canterbury village next week
CANTERBURY — Canterbury Shaker Village isn’t the first place that comes to mind when considering Tibet or Buddhism, but then again, it should not be the last. The Shakers were known for their very modern belief in equality between sexes, races, and acceptance of all. These values are what inspired an invitation to the Tibetan Buddhist Monks from the Drepung Gomang Monastery for The Peace and Harmony Program, and explains the willingness of the Lantos Foundation for Human Rights and Justice to sponsor this event. From Wednesday, May 16, through Sunday, May 20, Canterbury Shaker Village will host the Drepung Gomang Monks. During the four-day visit the monks will create a sacred vibrantly colored sand mandala which will be ceremoniously dispersed at the conclusion of their from preceding page donation or giving a percentage of their day’s receipts to Got Lunch! Laconia. A diner only has to tell their server they are there to support Got Lunch! Laconia for credit to be received. Last year Got Lunch! Laconia helped feed 314 Laconia school children during the summer and the program is expected to nearly double for this coming summer .
visit. Open to the public, the program will include a costumed Snow Lion Dance performance, a participatory Om Mani Padme Hum stone painting activity, group yoga, and a comparative discourse with the monks on Buddhist and Shaker principles. In 2009, the Lantos Foundation for Human Rights and Justice awarded the Lantos Human Rights Prize to Tibet’s spiritual leader, His Holiness the Dalai Lama, in recognition of his lifelong commitment to the peaceful promotion of human rights for the people of Tibet. “In honor of His Holiness the Dalia Lama and in remembrance of the dozens of Tibetans who have tragically set themselves on fire this past year to protest repressive Chinese rule we are pleased to sponsor this event as a peaceful way to bring attention to the issue of human rights abuses in China and Tibet.” said Katrina Lantos Swett, president of the Lantos Foundation. Those interested in attending or obtaining additional information on other events at Canterbury Shaker Village may call (603) 783-9511 x230 or visit the event page at shakers.org. The first fifty attendees to register are eligible to participate in a special yoga class. Suggested donations are appreciated.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Annie: We have two children and a 13-year-old grandson. Two years ago, our 48-year-old unmarried son very reluctantly told us that he has been diagnosed with gender identity disorder and considers himself to be female. This came as a complete surprise, but we decided to support her wholeheartedly, and we find her to be much happier than before. Here is the problem: Our other son and his wife don’t want their teenage son to know because they are afraid it will have a negative effect on his development. This makes family gatherings impossible, as the boy’s uncle now dresses and lives as a woman. We love both of our children and our grandson, but we are getting older and don’t know how long this impasse will last. How do we best explain transsexualism to a boy that age, and should we? -- The Parents Dear Parents: Children are amazingly adaptable, and a typical boy of 13 who watches TV and sees movies likely already has a grasp on gender identity issues. Having a relative who is transsexual is not going to make him change his gender. But we agree that these things should be explained sensitively, and the parents must be the ones to make that decision. Please contact PFLAG (pflag.org), which has a transgender network and can help you. Dear Annie: My best friend, “Donna,” has been happily married for 34 years. She and her husband eloped when she was 21, and they now have two grown sons and a 16-yearold daughter. Donna has mentioned more than once that she regrets not having had a wedding. So, when she announced that she was having a commitment ceremony for her 35th anniversary and asked me to participate, I was thrilled. However, what she is planning is far different from what I had imagined. She plans to wear a long white dress with a full train and a waist-length veil, and she has invited 100 guests. She wants me to be her matron of honor.
I feel that this is something much more appropriate for a young first-time bride, not a 57-year-old adult who looks her age. I fear she is making a ridiculous spectacle of herself -and, yes, of me, too. How do I tell her this? Or am I just being an old wet hen myself? -- Renee Dear Renee: As the matron of honor, you should offer to help Donna pick out her wedding dress. This will give you the opportunity to show your enthusiasm for something more appropriate. However, this is the wedding Donna dreamed of, and now she can afford it. If she is determined to go the whole nine yards (of material), we hope you will be a good sport. That’s what best friends do for each other. Dear Annie: As the representative of more than 10,000 florists, wholesalers and flower growers, the Society of American Florists would like to respond to “Friend of a Young Cancer Victim,” who asked readers to list a charity or medical organization in lieu of flowers in death notices. While donations to charitable organizations are a worthwhile cause, flowers also can be a great source of comfort to those grieving the loss of a loved one. They express sympathy in a heartfelt way, honor the deceased’s life and add warmth to the memorial service. Research from Harvard and Rutgers shows that flowers increase feelings of compassion and happiness, and people feel less depressed, anxious and agitated in their presence. Instead of requesting “in lieu of flowers,” we hope the family will consider simply stating, “The family suggests memorial contributions be sent to Such-And-Such” or “Memorial contributions can be made to Such-And-Such.” This provides a suggestion, without dictating to family and friends what they should do. -- Jenny Scala, Director of Consumer Marketing, Staff Liaison of Professional Floral Communicators -- International

By Holiday Mathis the excavation, though. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your connection to an older person will make life richer. Reach out and ask questions, particularly having to do with traditions, manners and ways that are unfamiliar to you. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There will be drama and excitement. You usually prefer not to be involved with that sort of thing, but you can’t deny that it adds a certain energy boost to a time period that might otherwise be a bit dull. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Aesthetic choices are more difficult than you would think. You won’t be able to please everyone, and getting too many opinions will further confuse the matter. Defer to the one whose taste you trust implicitly. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You have a fond appreciation for a partner and will express it heartily. You realize how important it is to share good “vibes” and keep the fire of friendship kindled. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your “inbox” may be a wild jungle of a place. So many people have been trying to reach you lately. This is an opportunity to attain new organizational skills to keep you on track. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (May 11). People appreciate you for the big and little contributions you make to their lives. The next 10 weeks are marked by artistic whimsy and romance. Your devotion to family will be highlighted in July. What you learned from experience you’ll be able to teach for a profit. August brings new business and the chance to travel. Leo and Aries people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 49, 3, 20 and 24.
TUNDRA
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Sometimes you rebel against yourself and can’t see what the real reason is. You do have one, though. You are human, not a bionic robot that can be programmed to do whatever you want it to do. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Babies, children and pets are excellent reminders that you don’t have to be doing something at every moment. Sometimes life is about just being you, doing nothing in particular. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll love the way an arrangement develops now. New treats will be added to sweeten the deal. This is partly because of your stellar sense of timing and partly because the other party recognizes the value of your end of it. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll connect with a courageous and strong part of your personality. You won’t accept less than you think you deserve without a fight. Others join in after you pave the way. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You may find yourself dissatisfied with the languid pacing of a lackluster routine. No one is to blame per se, though you’ll take on the responsibility of formulating a specific plan to inject excitement. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll give someone a kindness that you wish someone had given you. Your generosity of spirit is hardly unusual, though someone who is not used to the luxury of your friendship may experience it as such. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Looking into the past can be dicey because you never know what memories are going to come up, and the feelings attached to them can be equally surprising. There will be something good that comes of

Page 22 — THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Friday, May 11, 2012
––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Friday, May 11, the 132nd day of 2012. There are 234 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On May 11, 1862, during the Civil War, the Confederate ironclad CSS Virginia was scuttled by its crew off Craney Island, Va., to prevent it from falling into Union hands. On this date: In 1647, Peter Stuyvesant arrived in New Amsterdam to become governor of New Netherland. In 1812, British Prime Minister Spencer Perceval was assassinated in the lobby of the House of Commons by John Bellingham, who was hanged a week later. In 1858, Minnesota became the 32nd state of the Union. In 1927, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences was founded during a banquet at the Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles. In 1937, “SPAM” was registered as a trademark by Hormel Foods, producer of the canned meat product. In 1946, the first CARE packages arrived in Europe, at Le Havre, France. In 1950, President Harry S. Truman formally dedicated the Grand Coulee Dam in Washington state. In 1960, Israeli agents captured Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann in Buenos Aires, Argentina. In 1973, charges against Daniel Ellsberg for his role in the “Pentagon Papers” case were dismissed by Judge William M. Byrne, who cited government misconduct. In 1981, legendary reggae artist Bob Marley died in a Miami hospital at age 36. The Andrew Lloyd Webber musical “Cats” opened in London. In 1987, doctors in Baltimore transplanted the heart and lungs of an auto accident victim to a patient who gave up his own heart to another recipient. (Clinton House, the nation’s first living heart donor, died 14 months later.) In 1996, an Atlanta-bound ValuJet DC-9 caught fire shortly after takeoff from Miami and crashed into the Florida Everglades, killing all 110 people on board.

Second Annual Rich Velasquez Youth Sports Equipment Foundation Golf Tournament will be held June 9 GILFORD — The second annual Rich Velasquez Youth Sports Equipment Foundation (RVYSEF) Golf Tournament will be held on Saturday, June 9 at Pheasant Ridge Country Club. Registration is at 8 a.m. and a shotgun start at 8:30 a.m. Proceeds from the tournament will help provide sports equipment and fees for youths who would otherwise not be able to participate, which was a passion for Rich Velasquez, who was an avid volunteer who lived in Franklin and umpired for years in various age groups throughout the state. He was a coach; a player agent in charge of registrations; a liaison between players and League Officials; an Umpire In Chief of several youth leagues; and an active board member of Laconia Little League and the Armand J. Laramie Babe Ruth Baseball Association based out of the Lakes Region He passed away in November 2008 from medical complications too numerous to mention. What most people may not know is that Rich was a quiet philanthropist in providing sports equipment to under-privileged young people. Velasquez believed that all kids should have the chance to play sports even when they couldn’t pay. He took it upon himself to provide sporting equipment or pay sign up fees when a child expressed interest in playing, and the family could not afford the necessary associated expenses. When he passed away, his wife channeled her grief to honor him by starting
a fund that would carry on his legacy of financial support to young people unable to obtain the equipment or pay these expenses on their own. Since then, friends and family members have worked diligently to advance this cause by obtaining not for profit status for the Rich Velasquez Youth Sports Equipment Foundation (RVYSEF). Last year in June the first annual RVYSEF Golf Tournament was held at Pheasant Ridge Country Club in Gilford, as a major fund raising event in support of the foundation. This year the organization is looking for many willing sponsors and participants, in the form of teams or individuals to compete for a very special award, the “Umpire in Chiefs Cup”. This trophy is going to be available to any participating team winning the tournament with the lowest overall score. The trophy will reside at a location of the winners choosing until next year, and the winners will be invited back to defend their title in 2013, free of charge. Divisions will be created to challenge others of similar interest. There will be a Youth, Coaches, Umpires, Financial Services, Civic Group and other Divisions to pick from. Registrations will close on May 31 for $110 per person. There will be a barbeque at the awards ceremony which follows the tournament. Send an email to rvysef@gmail.com to request a registration form, or visit us at rvysef.org to print out a registration form.
