Petition calls for special school district meeting Gilford School Board would be asked to defend post-vote hiring of a new superintendent

By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

GILFORD — Nearly 70 residents have petitioned the School Board to convene a special meeting of the School District to address the issues raised by the success of the warrant article ordering the

board to operate the district in accordance with the plan approved by the state Department of Education in 1998, which did not provide for a superintendent.

Kevin Leandro said that the petitioners acted on the basis of a statute (RSA 197:2) that

provides that a special meeting of the school district “shall be held whenever, in the opinion of the school, there is occasion therefor, or whenever 50 or more voters, or 1/4 of the voters of the district, whichever is less, shall have made written application to the school board

therefor, setting forth the subject matter upon which action is desired.”

Strictly speaking, the petitioners have not requested any specific action beyond a discussion of why the the School Board has not followed the see GiLfOrd page 8

N.H. man called 911 to report murdersuicide, his own

CONCORD (AP) — A New Hampshire man who fatally shot his wife, then himself, had called 911 to report a murder-suicide and said he couldn’t stay on the line because he was “the other half,” the attorney general’s office said Thursday.

When police got to the Charlestown home of Bettina and Roderic Lavoie last August, they found the bodies of the couple seated together on a bench. There were two type-written letters from Roderic Lavoie entitled “After I Die” and “What Happened,” said Jeffery Strelzin, senior assistant attorney general. He released a statement on his office’s completed investigation into the deaths.

Autopsies determined that Mrs. Lavoie died Aug. 19, 2010, of a single gunshot wound to the abdomen. She was shot as she went out to her car to go to work, according to the attorney general’s see 911 page 8

Rising Mississippi River takes aim at Cajun country BUTTE LAROSE, La. (AP) — In the latest agonizing decision along the swollen Mississippi River, federal engineers are close to opening a massive spillway that would protect Baton Rouge and New Orleans but flood hundreds of thousands of acres in Louisiana Cajun country.

With that threat looming, some 25,000 people in an area known for small farms, fish camps, crawfish and a drawling French dialect are hurriedly packing their things and worrying that their homes and way of life might soon be drowned.

People in this riverfront community gathered at their volunteer fire station

to hear a man dressed in Army fatigues deliver an ominous flood forecast.

Col. Ed Fleming leaned over a podium this week and warned that projections by the Army Corps of Engineers call for the station to be inundated by up to 15 feet of water. The crowd let out a collective gasp.

“From the ground?” an incredulous resident shouted at the meeting.

“From the ground,” replied Fleming, head of the corps’ New Orleans district.

A few skeptics in the audience scoffed at the projection, but many others were shaken. “It’s over with,” muttered Pierre Watermeyer. “That’s it. There’s no sense in

pretending.”

The corps could open the Morganza floodway north of Baton Rouge as early as this weekend, a move that would relieve pressure on the city’s levee system.

Opening the spillway gates for the first time in 38 years will unleash the Mississippi on a wild ride south to the Gulf of Mexico through the Atchafalaya River and divert floodwater from the river into the basin’s swamplands, backwater lakes and bayous. Several thousand homes would be at risk of flooding.

TRIPOLI, Libya (AP) — Pressure is mounting on Moammar Gadhafi from within his stronghold in the Libyan capital, with increasing NATO airstrikes and worsening shortages of fuel and goods. An activist said Friday that there has also been a wave of anti-government protests in several Tripoli neighborhoods this week — dissent that in the past has been met with zero tolerance and brutal force.

Gadhafi’s rebel opposition, meanwhile, received major political boosts from abroad. Britain promised to provide them with police gear, and the Obama administration invited a rebel delegation to the White House for talks on Friday.

Highlighting the pressure, the sound of two NATO strikes could be heard early Friday. It was not immediately clear what they targeted. They followed a round of

NATO airstrikes early Thursday that hit Gadhafi’s fortified compound in Tripoli.

Just hours beforehand, the Libyan leader had appeared on state TV for the first time since his son was killed nearly two weeks ago. Before his appearance, rumors swirled that he had been killed or injured.

Reporters were shown the airstrike damage by Libyan officials, including one see LIBYA page 9

Council now one vote away from enacting city’s first new-housing ‘impact’ fees

By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA — The City Council on Monday night unanimously endorsed the development impact fee ordinance recommended by the Planning Board.

Since the ordinance imposes a fee, it requires a second reading by the council, which will be held at its next regularly scheduled meeting on May 23.

Impact fees are one-time charges on new development, levied when projects are approved by local planning boards, to fund either investment in municipal capital projects serving the development or to recoup past investment in expanded facilities that accommodate it.

The ordinance will “grandfather,” or exempt, projects already approved by the Planning Board from impact fees.

The fees will be levied at a quarter of their full value and may be reviewed at any time but no later than July 1, 2016. The ordinance would grant the Planning Board discretion to waive up to 60-percent of the fees for affordable housing developments and up to 80-percent of the fees for the rehabilitation or reuse of existing properties.

Linda Harvey, executive director of the Laconia Area Community Land Trust, said yesterday that she was “surprised” to find the waiver for affordable housing set at 60-percent. When the Planning Board discussed the ordinance in April, Harvey expressed concern that the waiver has been deleted from a earlier draft. She explained that without a waiver it would be difficult to finance developments like Millview, which the trust undertook at the bidding of the city.

The board agreed and voted unanimously to waive all impact fees for affordable housing projects.

“I understood the board voted to grant a full waiver,” Harvey said, adding that she was working with Planning Director Shanna Saunders to resolve the issue.

Saunders said that Bruce Mayberry of BCM Planning LLC of New Gloucester, Maine, the consultant who designed the ordinance, advised against both “grandfathering” and granting full waivers, which he said amounted to exemptions. She explained that the board was especially eager to encourage “infill” rather than sprawl by rewarding the rehabilitation and reuse of existing properties and chose to permit waivers of up to 80-percent to do so.

Since all the projects undertaken by the trust qualified as “infill,” Saunders said that she told Harvey that future

projects would likely qualify for an 80-percent waiver. By the same reasoning the board deleted the waiver for afforable housing, which Saunders said was originally set at 60-percent.

Last month, when Harvey asked the board to restore the waiver, Saunders said that the the original 60-percent waiver was returned to the ordinance presented to the council this week.

The Planning Board first recommended imposing impact fees a year ago, using the schedule prepared by Mayberry. The board suggested levying impact fees at 25-percent of their full rate and applying them to the full range of municipal services — schools, police, fire, recreation roads and library.

The effect would be fees of $1,907 for a detached single family home, $915 for a townhouse, $2,319 for a duplex, $1,740 for a multi-family building and $1,453 for a manufactured housing unit. Commercial projects would be charged by the square foot and assessed only for their impact on public safety services and roads. At the 25-percent rate retail space would be charged $0.75, office space $0.55 and industrial space, including storage, $0.24.

After initially shunning the proposal, the council warmed to it as the recession depleted municipal revenues from sources other than property taxes and the state withheld funds and transferred costs to cities and towns. The council asked the Planning Board to amend its draft to exempt, or “grandfather,” all projects the board has approved but the developer has yet to complete from impact fees.

However, Planning Director Shanna Saunders found that since 2004 the Planning Board has approved 18 residential projects with a total of 1,198 units that remain to be constructed and occupied, which would be exempt from impact fees. She calculated that without the exemption the proceeds would amount to $2.6-million, or $1,888 per unit, between 2011 and 2014.

In light of the fiscal effect of the exemption, the council returned the proposal to the Planning Board, which held a public hearing last month. Several representatives of the development community urged retention of the “grandfathering” for approved projects while Harvey asked the board to waive the fees altogether for affordable housing developments.

When the board met in May it approved the fresh ordinance, which retained the exemption for approved projects and restored the waiver for affordable housing.

GOP moves to end money for airport body scanners

318 Whittier Highway (Route 25) • Center Harbor • 253-4381

WASHINGTON (AP) — House Republicans controlling the Transportation Security Administration’s purse strings are moving to cut off funding for those advanced airport scanners that have sparked outrage over their revealing images of travelers’ bodies.

Draft legislation released Thursday by the Appropriations homeland security subcommittee denies the Obama administration’s $76 million request for an additional 275 of the scanners, which many travelers dislike because

TSA employees can view full body images of travelers.

The GOP move wouldn’t affect the 500 or so machines already in place at 78 of the nation’s airports or the 500 just funded in a recent spending bill. Efforts are under way to solve the privacy concerns with new computer software. TSA currently gives passengers the option of a pat down in private — a choice that most people find even more intrusive. see next page

Col. Don Bolduc commanded special forces battalion during latest Afghan duty

LACONIA — “There are lots of fun jobs in the Army, but commanding a battalion is the best job in the Army,” said Lieutenant Colonel Don Bolduc, who earlier this month relinquished command of the 1st Battalion, 3rd Special Forces Group (Airborne), which spent 17 of the last 24 months deployed in Afghanistan. “You’re senior enough to command, but close enough at the tactical level to have day-to-day interaction with soldiers,” he continued yesterday, while visiting in his father’s home here. “And the toughest thing is to give up command of this battalion.”

Bolduc, one of three sons of City Councilor Armand Bolduc (Ward 6) and his late wife Jan to serve in the Special Forces, is visiting with family and friends this week, before his next posting as operations and training officer at Special Forces Command at Fort Bragg, North Carolina followed by a stint at the Army War College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania. Bolduc’s brother Dave was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel and given command of the 3rd Battalion, 5th Special Forces Group (Airborne) the the very day he left his battalion.

John, his other brother, retired as a Master Sergeant and is working with Blackwater USA, the private military and security contractor, in Iraq.

When Bolduc enlisted shortly after graduating from Laconia High School, he did not envision a military career. “My grandfather was adamant about serving the country,” he recalled. “I grew up knowing it was a family obligation, something I had to do in some capacity.” After serving in the infantry and airborne, he attended Salem State College, where he enrolled in the Reserve Officers Training Corps and left with a degree, a commission as a 2nd Lieutenant and Sharon, his wife of 18 years.

Bolduc saw combat with the 82nd Airborne in Grenada and the Special Forces in the Persian Gulf before the invasion of Afghanistan in 2001, when he served on the advance team attached to Hamid Karzai, the president of Afghanistan, as his primary military advisor.

Col. Don Bolduc Altogether, Bolduc has served four tours in Afghanistan, the most recent as commander of a battalion of 420 special forces spread over 14 fire bases in the southern and western regions of the country, where since 2003 the Taliban has mounted a determined effort to regain what was once its stronghold.

Bolduc said that his unit’s mission was twofold.

First, to pursue and destroy the “insurgent infrastructure” in alliance with Afghan security forces in order to provide “stability, security and safety” to the Afghan people while depriving the Taliban leadership of the forces and organization required to return to power. And second to establish civic institutions, physical infrastructure and basic services.

“We’re building roads, bridges, schools and clinics at the village level,” he said, adding that when coalition forces arrived in 2001 there were country lacked the means of providing its people with basic services. “There has been a tremendous amount of from preceding page Panel chairman Robert Aderholt, R-Ala., said his move was sparked by budgetary factors rather than protests from privacy advocates. And it comes as the TSA is trying hard to modify the machines so that they won’t produce revealing images. Instead, the agency is trying out new software that would have the machines read the images and alert airport screeners when there’s a potential weapon or other threat. The screener would then see the location of the threat as shown on a stick figure of the body.

growth since 2001,” he said, acknowledging that “it’s a long-term proposition.”

Bolduc said that Special Forces units, consisting of experienced soldiers with backgrounds in engineering, civics and medicine, were well-suited to their mission, which might find them undertaking “presence patrols,” or combat operations one day and providing humanitarian assistance, constructing roadways or working with local leaders to improve

governance the next.

“Special Forces are the Peace Corps with a bite,” he remarked.

Meanwhile, Bolduc said he was enjoying his respite at home by swimming and kayaking in the lake with his three sons — Matthew, Zachary and Joshua — and treating his wife to lobster rolls and black raspberry ice cream at Sawyer’s Dairy Bar in Gilford.

Newt and the GOP’s social agenda It was probably ironic that in at least one of the online papers I was reading, the story of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver’s separation played literally back to back with the story of Newt and Callista Gingrich’s ascension and how it is expected that she will turn the liability of his infidelity, which led to their marriage, into an asset.

In their statement, Arnold and Maria asked for privacy. I have the greatest respect and fondness for both of them. And I am old-fashioned enough — or maybe just consistent enough — to believe that if you keep your personal life personal, it should be treated as just that.

Which raises the Newt and Callista question. Apparently, former Speaker Gingrich was dating — or whatever you want to call it for a family paper — his now third wife, a congressional aide, while as Speaker he was pursuing the impeachment of President Clinton on charges growing out of the president’s relationship with Monica Lewinsky.

Full disclosure: I also like Newt. I don’t agree with him. I wouldn’t vote for him. But among the on-air and speech-circuit gladiators, there is no one who is smarter, better prepared or more courteous and considerate.

Over the years, I’ve always been happy to see Newt on my schedule.

And I don’t care who he was “dating” or when. If everyone holding elected office in Washington who had “dated” during the last term was suddenly removed from office... You know what I mean. Far as I’ve been able to tell, such behavior crosses every line, certainly party lines.

If I were married to him, or a close friend or relative were, I’d care plenty.

For me, the only issue is the hypocrisy. How could you seek to impeach the president when you were engaging in the same kind of underlying

conduct? Was there no limit to partisanship? My questions have absolutely nothing to do with Callista.

The good news for Newt is that the people who vote in Republican primaries, at least most of them, probably believe the impeachment of Clinton was justified. They won’t ask him my questions, at least not the hypocrisy part.

The bad news is that if social issues are anywhere on your agenda, it’s hard to have a candidate who doesn’t live them or at least look like he lives them. Newt, no matter how charming his wife (and I am sure she is charming), no matter how genuine the love story they built on troubled beginnings (and I have no doubt it is real and strong), has a problem with primary voters who are still holding on to the social agenda.

Maybe it’s time for Republicans to let go of that agenda once and for all.

Maybe embracing Newt is the way you do that. But I’m not sure they’ve lost enough times to be at that point.

So there it is: She was a girl in her 20s who reportedly had a six-year affair with a powerful, older married congressman and ended up by his side as he prepares to run for president.

Fairy tale? Or worse than being Mormon? (Sorry, just putting it out on the table). If the personal is political and morality is a big part of your politics, it’s a tough one. On the other hand, if you’re looking for someone who understands how government works and knows the forces of history, Newt has a lot to recommend him.

LETTERS Chuck Palm firmly believed that ‘more’ doesn’t always equal ‘better’ To the editor, For more than three decades, Chuck Palm answered fire calls as deputy chief and chief of two volunteer departments in New Hampshire. This Monday, as part of a long-standing tradition within the fire service, the beeper in his family’s house in Meredith, NH sounded one final time with an announcement of his passing. Over the past thirty years, this tone would normally have been followed by Chuck climbing out of bed or dropping whatever he was doing to head down to the station. This time though, that sound marked the end of a life that was given honestly and sincerely to public service. Only a brief examination of his legacy is required to recognize the successful fulfillment of the integral pact that exists between small towns and their inhabitants. The care, attention and dedication that he poured into his daily work helped to form and strengthen the fabric that makes life so rich in rural communities across New England.

His life’s journey is a roadmap to consider and applaud amidst the often overwhelming trend towards broad, faster-paced and less personal interactions. Indeed, it might be appropriate for us to consider the alternative.

Chuck firmly believed that “more” does not always equal “better.” Instead, life becomes more fulfilling through the relationships that we build and nurture on a daily basis.

In the late 70s, Chuck lived just outside of Boston, having successfully embarked on a promising career at Peat, Marwick, Mitchell and Co. where he had become a partner in his still young career. With two young boys at home, late nights at the office and a variable commute and travel schedule, he often reflected on the quality of his relationships and the impact he

was having on others. And so, it was with a change of course that many might question that he moved to a small community in southern New Hampshire. And while he remained in the banking industry for the time being, he also quickly found his way into a variety of roles in public service.

So while his traditional work schedule may have become somewhat diminished, the hours in his day filled with meetings, outings and time spent at the fire house. In addition to serving as the assistant fire chief, he coached Little League, ran the Boy Scout troop, and was a member of town finance committee. Suffice it to say that a number of posts needed to be filled when Chuck left town in 1994 as he headed still further north to Meredith, NH. It took him just a couple years to settle into town before he became Fire Chief, a position he would dutifully fill for 10 years. During his time in town he would lead the charge to build a new fire station while also serving as interim Town Manager and most recently as Chairman of the Board of Selectman and Town Treasurer.

At the end of life, when the vessel is empty, the stuff that remains is built from the actions that are laid down purposefully and precisely over the years.

Chuck leaves a monument to those who are searching for the meaning in his passing. His story is simple: Care for those around you, commit yourself wholly to your family and your community, and relish the time that it takes to build sturdy relationships.

A service will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Sunday in Heskey Park in Meredith, NH and will be followed by a celebration of Chuck’s life at the Meredith Fire Department.

Fact is, N.H. is never going to have a full service VA hospital To the editor, Both Senator Shaheen and Senator Ayotte go on record this week in support of full service VA in N.H. or contracting with existing hospitals for veteran care in NH. The fact that N.H. is the only state in the nation that is without a full service VA has been the subject for discussion and debate for years and always seems to find its way to “headline political status” around Memorial Day or Veterans Day. Right, it is May and thoughts of Memorial Day are at hand.

The fact is, N.H. is never going to have a FULL SERVICE VA so we can put that issue to rest. The VA is already contracting out to local hospitals (Concord for one) for related Veteran care and has been. The problem is “maybe” Veteran involvement and direct communication with our senators and congressional reps. Focus is most important and it’s time for Veterans to come together as ‘ONE’ at least on this issue here in this state.

We often hear that the number of Veterans in NH is 130,000 and about 19,000 in the VA system (numbers will change depending on individual and office representing). The fact is, VA Healthcare for Veterans can be excellent! The VA system is a ‘mess’ and communication and direction is key when dealing with that system.

Here in Belknap County, with

LRGHealthcare leading the way for Veterans information and direction, the number used is 8,000 Veterans and Merrimack with Franklin Hospital about 11,000 Veterans. If the Veterans in these areas wanted to do something politically constructive and more important, do something for their fellow Veteran, they would be calling for their reps to have VA contract out to these hospitals for any and all Veteran care with proper care management for the Veteran and family. Actually for the VA bottom line ,which we ALL know is the issue, or will be, Veteran’s, thank you for your service BUT . . . the day will come when the VA health care budget will be discussed in the open and my suggestion is . . . Contact your Senator’s NOW and DEMAND Veteran care at local hospital option because in the future, near future, your senator will have little say. Full service Manchester VA is NEVER going to happen BUT a better option is available for Veterans. Come together and write and/or call NOW because if you wait until YOU need it, it will be too late!

Senator Kelly Ayotte - 622-7979; Senator Jean Shaheen - 647-7500.

Both numbers are their Manchester Offices. Load them up!

That’s our president those radical mobs are screaming about To the editor, Well OBL is dead. Great! I am pleased that our Navy Seals completed the decade-long task and even more pleased they all survived to return to us safely. These men are true hero’s. Credit also must be given to both our current and former presidential administrations. I will let others bicker over who gets the most credit and or glory. As for me, I say WELL DONE AMERICA. It is now Saturday the 7th and after following both broadcast and print news what I see and hear from around the world is very disappointing. In Europe the loudest voices come in two flavors both quite disagreeable.

First a bunch of freaks are complaining because apparently we didn’t give the s.o.b. a sporting chance.Then the noble (that’s noble dripping with sarcasm) United Nations is debating whether we might have violated international law. Well screw the first and more proof that we should dump the second into the trash pile of historic failed experiments.

Hey, by the way, where are all those moderate, Islam is a religion of peace and tolerance, types we have been told are the majority. Only one story I have seen so far is about a Muslim country happy about the death of the terrorist in chief and that’s Iraq. Where are the supportive Muslim moderates? Over and over the media has demanded

we not blame the religion but only the radicals. I’m fine with that but please show me that there are indeed even a few moderates among the sea of hostility. In London a radical mob screamed that Obama is the greatest criminal in the world. Obama will die, they chanted, Sharia is coming they screamed. That’s our president they are talking about, people. Republican or Democrat, liberal or conservative, THAT’S OUR PRESIDENT. If Muslims in this country or anywhere else want our respect, our tolerance, if they truly are moderate, now is the time to show it and let their voices of support be heard.

If their too scared, or just here for a free ride, then it’s time for both them and us to reconsider the arrangement.

If they have a problem making up their minds as to who’s side they are on then its time for them to go back where they came from. Personally I’m in a pretty good mood but I’m not so jolly that I feel inclined to cut cowards or fence sitters even a modicum of slack.

Not even the most liberal of liberal news sources seems to be able to find support or even mild approval of the President’s actions. Nothing our country does, or says, in defense of their human rights seems to impress or please them. So I have to ask, what’s up with that?

Increase in library budget sparks biggest debate at Sanbornton Town Meeting

By Gail OBer

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

(EDITOR’S NOTE: The following story appeared in our Thursday, May 11 edition but due to an electronic editing error a portion was omitted. We print the entire story today.)

SANBORNTON — Sparks flew at last night’s annual Town Meeting when the library trustees proposed a floor amendment to the operating budget to add $2,500 to the library budget for additional parttime hours.

The motion, made by Library Trustee Joanne Dover, was met with resistance from members of the Budget Committee, for budget reasons, but it was $150 in Christmas bonuses that triggered the debate.

“These library trustees are the same people who voted themselves a holiday bonus,” said Craig Davis who said they should have thought about “the children” and more hours before the bonus vote.

“They are so wrong,” said Linda VanValkenburgh who took offense not only at the statement but because she said the trustees voted to send $12,000 back to the town “when we could have kept it (for programs).

Former State Rep. Tom Salatiello said initially that people need to understand libraries are administered through the State’s Charitable Trust Division and to return money to taxpayers requires a vote of the library trustees. But he defended the requested spending increase and the token bonuses because when the town voted to give all employees a 5-percent raise in 2005, the library trustees voted to keep its employee’s raises to 2-percent.

He also said not supporting the library was “inconsistent” with Sanbornton’s values and that he had heard a “current Budget Committee member” refer to the library as a “luxury.”

Defending himself was library Director Cab Vinton who said the library operates “a clean ship” and any “dirty laundry” should have been addressed LACONIA from page one the school district “into the ballpark.”

The possible cuts come largely as the result of the potential for a reduction in state education aid, a reduction in overall property values at the city level and an uncertainty about what’s going to be required in the area of retirement contributions.

The possibility of layoffs has been the topic of a number of School Board meetings since February and Champlin said anyone whose job may be eliminated has already been told.

With the state biennial budget still in it’s development stage, Champlin said taxpayers can expect a final school budget sometime in July.

He said the state budget is due on June 30 and after that date the School District budget will go to City Council for approval.

“Who knows what the city will do at the local level,” Champlin said.

He said the attendance coordinators’ duties — all three positions at the elementary, middle and high school — will be performed by remaining staff.

Other positions that may not be filled are four from preceding page help us supplement USDA food distributions that we receive six times per year. We are not affiliated with the N.H. Food Bank in any way and we rely on the local community for support. These donations enable us to provide food to needy families and individuals in Belknap County and surrounding communities who rely on food pantries to supplement their needs.

Last year the Common Food Pantry provided thousands of meals to residents in Laconia, Belmont, Barnstead, Gilford, Gilmanton and Alton and, unfortunately, the need continues to rise. Meeting the needs of these communities could not be done without your help.

Thank you again for your support!

at the Budget Committee level.

He also said library visits were up 34-percent from 2005, items checked out were up and use of the computer resources “is soaring.”

Vinton reminded the voters that the library fund raising for the upstairs renovation was one-third of the total but when the project began, the town has said it would contribute all but 12 percent.

Budget Committee member Jeff Jenkins challenged some of the information.

He said the library didn’t get any cuts in last year’s budgets and he has never seen a record of any money being returned.

Jenkins said the library was one of the town’s “big six” departments and it should “hold the line” like every other department.

Davis retook the floor and clarified that the library trustees didn’t not vote “themselves but employees a holiday bonus” and that he does think the library is as important as any other department.

“I’m not anti-library, but I said it was a luxury,” said Budget Committee Chair Earl Leighton.

Leighton said highway was facing a reduction in revenue while both police and fire departments didn’t get all that they asked for.

The motion passed and the library got it’s money.

The next motion was by Jenkins to add $40,000 to the highway department to replace revenue that may be lost by a possible reduction in the highway block grant from the N.H. Department of Transportation.

School Budget Committee member Nina Gardner said she objected because the final state budget isn’t passed.

Budget Committee member Tim Lang and Selectman Andrew Livernois said the motion went the wrong way because adding $40,000 to the budget obligated the town to raise more taxes.

They said if the block grant is cut from the revenue side and the town votes to increase the expenditure, the shortfall goes to $80,000.

Jenkin withdrew his motion.

Voters also voted by ballot not to fund the Youth Assistance Program for the second year in a row despite what seemed like solid support from those who spoke.

“A youngster doing something stupid can ruin a future,” said Rep. Bill Tobin who noted he has long supported the YAP. Speaking against it was Selectman-elect Karen Ober who reiterated the same objections her husband had last year.

She said the program was duplicated by the Belknap County Department of Youth Services and supporting a different but similar program was tantamount to double taxation.

Ober also said a YAP component was included in the school curriculum but the school district didn’t fund it and that consolidating YAP with the Belknap County Youth Services made more sense and worked toward a consolidation of services.

Ober and Jenkins also said the supervision of the program was lacking and that, in their experiences, youths in YAP didn’t always complete the program.

“There no accountability for the money or for the kids in the program,” Jenkins said.

The petitioned warrant article went down by 12 votes — 66 said “yes” and 78 said “no” by secret ballot.

Voters also supported new Fire Department tanker, a new ambulance, a new fire chief’s command car and a new cruiser — if one is mechanically needed.

The fire apparatus comes from the ambulance revenue account and/or the capital savings account while the police cruiser will come from new capital tax money already approved at $719,000 by the voters in an earlier article.

A final town operating budget of $3,639,153 for fiscal year 2011-12 was passed.

At press time there were still six warrant articles yet to be voted.

elementary school teachers, two of three elementary school literacy coaches, a middle school reading specialist and a custodian.

At the high school, three teacher positions could be lost as well as one position within the high school administration.

Although every position in the district was “on the table” said Budget and Personnel Committee Chair Scott Vachon, there will be no cuts in staff at the SAU level because, through attrition and retirement, there have been staff reductions in previous budgets.

Vachon said the potential loss if 19 positions will “impact the district”, adding that the process forced them to look “deeply and widely” at the overall budget.

Champlin said, if more money is available, the literacy theme and the attendance coordinator theme will be closely examined.

“We also have to prepare for deeper cuts but not in personnel,” Champlin said.

Although not on the Budget and Personnel Committee, School Board Chair Bob Dassatti has been at all of the committee meetings and said the day it began considering reductions, Feb. 15, was not a good one.

“We saw all the ugliness,” he said.

Dassatti said the administration and the committee were to be commended for “not tugging at the heartstrings of the community” by using politics to inflame the city by cutting band or football.

“You decided not to make it a political scene,” he said.

Champlin said non-renewal notices will go out today and teachers receiving new contracts will get them on May 18. From that date, teachers have 10 days to sign or not but added the district doesn’t anticipate any more retirements or resignations.

GILFORD from page one operational plan approved by the New Hampshire Department of Education when the local SAU was established in 1998 — breaking away from Laconia — and why it has failed to comply with the warrant article ordering it to do so. In March, voters approved the warrant by a margin of 492 in favor to 287 against.

The petition is the latest round in a sparring contest between the School Board and its critics, which began with the success of the warrant article. Throughout, the board has insisted that the original plan for the district did not bind the board to forgo a superintendent and that it has acted properly by having one.

Kurt Webber, who chairs the School Board, was not available to comment on the petition.

911 from page 2 office. After shooting her, Lavoie dragged his wife’s body onto the bench, sat down next to her, called his mother about what was happening, and then police.

He then shot himself in the head, Strelzin said.

As described by the attorney general’s office, the letters indicated that Roderic Lavoie, 48, had been ill and that he and his wife, 50, were having marital problems. The letters said she wanted to leave him and he suspected she was seeing someone else, so he put a GPS tracking device on her car.

A male co-worker of Mrs. Lavoie’s later confirmed

to the attorney general’s office that he had been having a romantic relationship with her. He said she told him that her husband would probably shoot them both if he found out she was involved with another man, Strelzin said in the statement.

The couple had been married for 28 years. Lavoie told his mother and son that they were having problems last July, Strelzin said. Lavoie also told his mother he would not do anything “stupid” like his brother had done, referring to his brother’s suicide years earlier due to marital problems.

Winni Salmon Derby returns this weekend after a year off to give fishery a breather

By AdAm drApcho

LACONIA — After a year off, the Winni (Salmon) Derby has returned this weekend and Executive Director Rick Davis said yesterday that the hiatus has proven to be a good thing.

This derby, now operated by the Laconia Rotary Club, will be the 29th time the contest has been held.

Last year, Davis attended the salmon netting operations held by the state’s Fish and Game Department, in which they extract eggs from pregnant fish for spawning in state fisheries. He didn’t like what he saw.

There were fewer fish and of those he saw, “About 30-percent of what I saw had hook wounds, were quite skinny, they weren’t going to make it.” Hook wounds are caused by careless or inexperienced fishermen who roughly remove a hook from a fish’s jaw, causing permanent damage that limits the fish’s ability to eat.

The land-locked salmon fishery is under pressure from anglers like never before, said Davis, due to more numerous fishermen and the increasingly sophisticated technology they’re employing. After seeing the state of the lake’s salmon, Davis called off the

2010 derby.

A year later, he was glad he did.

Observing the same netting process, he said the fish “were in great shape.”

The three-day derby begins today and will continue through Sunday. Two Princecraft boats and cash awards are among the $50,000 worth of prizes.

Anglers can register as late as today, and may do so by visiting www.winniderby.com or at A.J.’s Bait & Tackle on Main Street in Meredith.

The canceling of last year’s derby was only one response to the state of salmon population in the state’s largest lake. Fish & Game has enacted new rules, such as one which prohibits the live storage of salmon – anglers either immediately release a salmon or keep it for good. Several other rules pertain to types of lures and techniques fishermen may use.

Although the weather looks promising for the weekend, recent economic climate, said Davis, is to blame for keeping participation in the derby from setting any records. He expects a turnout of between 1,000 and 1,500.

Those that show up, though, will be rewarded with a rejuvenated fishery.

“There should be plenty of fish out there for everybody,” he said.

Pawn shop owner admits receiving stolen property LACONIA — The owner of a Tilton pawn shop will be on probation for two years after pleading guilty in Belknap County Superior Court yesterday to one count of receiving stolen property.

Kevin Hobbs, 53, who lives in Mont Vernon but owns Tilton Fast Cash on Route 3, will also pay a $2,000 fine plus $420 in administrative costs. He also agreed to perform 40 hours of community service that will be supervised by the Tilton Police Department.

Hobbs was indicted last month for one misdemeanor count of receiving stolen property and one felony count of falsifying physical evidence. The latter charge was dropped.

Police said Hobbs bought a number of items from a man who later admitted to stealing them from a Northfield homeowner between the dates of Nov.

from preceding page used to coordinate attacks against civilian populations.”

Early on Friday, an anti-government activist in the Libyan capital said there had been protests this week in at least three neighborhoods in the capital, accompanied by exchanges of gunfire between opposition activists and Gadhafi forces.

He said he saw in one neighborhood, Fashloum, there were soldiers flooding the area and were patrolling the streets in vehicles. He said he did not personally see a demonstration there but heard from other activists that there was a brief gunbattle in that area.

The sharp cracking sound of gunfire could be heard in a separate neighborhood close to the hotel where reporters must reside.

The activist’s report echoed those made earlier to The Associated Press by a local journalist and resident on Thursday. All spoke on condition of anonymity out of fear of reprisals.

Reporters cannot independently confirm the information because they may not leave their Tripoli hotel without government minders.

17, 2008 and Jan. 14, 2009.

When the thief was questioned by police, he admitted the theft and told them he pawned the items at Fash Cash.

All of the stolen merchandise was recovered except for a plasma cutter Hobbs said he didn’t realize was stolen but for which he had no paperwork for its resale.

Two months later, the investigating officer said an Amherst auto body shop took the plasma cutter from Hobbs in exchange for some work.

Neither Hobbs nor the body shop owner realized the cutter was broken and needed a part available only through the manufacturer. When the new holder of the cutter called the manufacturer, the manufacturer notified police.

Only the homeowner and the police knew the plasma cutter needed the specific piece.

— Gail Ober

When residents of Tripoli tried to protest against Gadhafi earlier in the uprising, gunmen in speeding cars tore through and fired wildly into the crowds, making many fearful to go out in the streets and demonstrate.

The activist said residents are deeply frustrated by a severe fuel shortage that forces some motorists to spend up to three days in line at gas stations. His report echoed what is clearly visible to reporters when they are shipped around on buses.

The price of black market fuel had reached 100 dinars for 5 gallons (20 liters) of gas — in comparison to the government price of 3 dinar for the same amount. The government sells gas for 15 Libyan cents a liter.

He added there were sharp shortages in medicines and the price of some basic foods had doubled and tripled in price.

The activist gave the example of a cholesterol medicine which was no longer available in Tripoli, and asthma medicine that doubled in price to 60 Libyan dinars. He said the price of vegetable oil quadrupled from less than one dinar to four, and the price of pasta — a Libyan staple — also rose from half a dinar to 2 dinars.

Taylor Community welcomes Live Free Home Health Care as ‘preferred provider

By AdAm drApcho THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA — The Taylor Community announced yesterday at a press conference that it has named Live Free Home Health Care as a “preferred provider” for services that aren’t covered by Medicare but which allow people to continue living independently.

Calling them “extremely good at what they do,” Taylor Community President Tim Martin introduced Jason and Jennifer Harvey to a large group of residents who attended the

announcement. The Harveys own and operate Life Free Home Health Care, a private duty nursing and care company based in Bristol and founded five years ago.

The meeting introduced a relationship between the non-profit Taylor Community and the health care company. Martin said the arrangement came about as a result of residents who asked him questions such as, “why can’t we get a nurse to come to my home when I don’t feel good.” Live Free Home Health Care, said Martin, will fill in the “gray areas” of care that

Medicare won’t cover.

The health care company, which has a staff of more than 50, will keep an office at the Taylor Community that will be staffed nine hours each week and will provide residents with a variety of services. The company’s staff, which includes nurses, care providers and housekeepers, will help administer medication, change bandages and help residents get dressed and into the shower. They will also help do laundry, prepare meals and do errands.

These services have been available to residents, as well as for the population at large, but as a “preferred provider” Taylor Community residents

will be able to contract for them at a discounted rate.

Martin said the agency was recommended to him by Community Health and Hospice.

Although the onsite offices will be staffed for three hours on three days of the week, the Harveys told the crowd that they can call the company’s Bristol office any time and that services can be arranged for any hour of the week.

Depending upon the service required, the company may require a two-hour minimum for billing purposes.

“We think this is going to be a big benefit to many of you,” Martin said.

Selectmen also denied an application for a renewal of their dancing and live entertainment permit, meaning that as of midnight on Sunday (May 15), the restaurant and nightclub cannot have any form of live entertainment, including DJs. According to the permit application, the unusual entertainment consists of wet T-shirt and swimsuit contests.

The motion to deny the application was made by Gus Benavides, vice chairman of the Select Board, and the decision was unanimous.

Before the vote was taken, Scott Dunn, town administrator, said the establishment is facing numerous compliance issues with the town, including violations of its site plan and the posting illegal signs.

“And it’s a regular haunt for our police department,” Dunn added.

Benavides said that while he was denying the application, he wanted to make it known that the Gilford Board of Selectmen is willing to work with businesses and residents.

“We want people to come to Gilford, we want businesses to thrive in the Lakes Region,” Benavides said.

But China Bistro, located on Lake Street, is a business that is currently not abiding several town ordinances

or regulations, including noise and disturbance ordinances that are impacting the quality of surrounding businesses and residences, he said.

Selectman J. Kevin Hayes noted numerous, recent police calls to the establishment, many for noise and disturbances, but also for more serious crimes such as assaults and a stabbing.

“I think it’s time the proprietors get their business under control before we give them any more latitude,” Hayes said.

No one from the restaurant appeared before the board Wednesday.

In other action, selectmen voted to stipulate that the work for replacing the deck of the Routes 3 and 11 Bypass bridge (which passes over Route 11A) to be conducted within 60 consecutive hours — or 12 hours short of three days. The work is slated to take place between now an Memorial Day, with the contractors to set the exact date.

Selectmen had also considered requiring the work to be done over five consecutive days, between the hours of 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., so that residents and guests of the nearby hotel would not be impacted by construction sounds overnight. But the inconvenience of having the bridge closed for five days was also considered, and in the end, Selectmen voted for the three day option.

The next selectmen’s meeting is on May 25 at 7 p.m. at Town Hall.

City manager candidates narrowed to field of 6

BY MICHAEL KITCH THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA — As Eileen Cabanel takes her leave of the city, the search for her successor is fast drawing to close. Mayor Mike Seymour said yesterday that he hopes the City Council will be in position to select the new city manager by the first or second week of June.

The identity of the candidates has yet to be disclosed to either the mayor or the councilors. However, Seymour said that Don Jutton of Municipal Resources, Inc. of Meredith, the firm conducting the search and screening the candidates, reported that the field included a number of “heavy hitters” and indicated that the council would have “its hands full” making its choice.

MRI began by winnowing a field of 85 candidates down to two dozen, who were asked to submit essays and complete questionnaires. Their submissions were reviewed by a panel of veteran municipal officials chosen by MRI, who then interviewed the candidates with the aim of narrowing the field to about

six. The mayor and councilors, accompanied by a handful of department heads and city employees, will interview the remaining candidates on either May 26 and May 27.

Seymour said that after the interviews councilors would have the Memorial Day weekend to weigh the candidates and convene the following week to begin the selection process. He said that if the council found itself divided, candidates would be asked to return for another round of questioning. “If all goes smoothly, we could reach a decision by June 3,” he said, “but I hope we are in a position to make an offer by June 10.”

The council accelerated the selection process because the departure of Cabanel will be followed at the end of June by the retirement of finance Director Pam Reynolds, who will serve as city manager in the interim. Seymour said that the change of command will depend on how quickly the new city manager can come aboard. “We won’t know what kind of a gap we’re dealing with until we make our choice,” he said.

MANCHESTER — Laconia Savings Bank has been named New Hampshire’s Financial Services Business of the Year by Business NH Magazine.

The bank is currently celebrating 180 years of service to its customers and communities throughout New Hampshire.

Laconia Savings Bank has assets of over $1-billion and capitol reserves totaling $120-million.

Laconia Savings Bank’s investment in communities goes well beyond loans and business transactions. As a mutual bank, it invests significantly in

local communities with time, talent and financial resources. The bank contributes more than 10-percent of its net income back into the communities it serves. Over the past two years, it has invested in excess of $1.5-million in hundreds of not-for-profit, charitable, education and social service organizations across the state.

“Laconia Savings Bank would like to thank Business New Hampshire Magazine and the N.H. Association of Chamber Executives for this honor,” stated Mark Primeau, President & CEO of Laconia Savings Bank. “We are thankful for this award and are looking forward to bringing the very best in banking to the businesses and citizens of New Hampshire.”

Gilford ‘pink slipped’ 5 school employees on April 15

By Gail OBer

GILFORD — With the School District’s facing a projected shortfall of state aid for the 2011-12 school year in the $567,000 range, the School Board has taken early steps toward eliminating or reducing the cost of seven jobs.

Assistant Superintendent Scott Isabelle said yesterday that the School Board chose the possible elimination of one middle school teacher, two elementary school teachers and one part-time high school science teacher.

He said those “pink slip” notifications were made to the affected employees on April 15.

He said the district also issued notices to one parttime elementary school guidance employee, one person in the SAU building will see an reduction in hours and salary, and one technical education teacher will see a 20-percent reduction in hours and pay.

Isabelle said non-renewal notices are required by union contract to be distributed to any teacher or employee whose contract may not, for budget reasons, be available for the next school year.

At issue now is a decision by the School Board to pay for $150,000 of non-salary items budgeted for next year with a projected 2011 budget surplus while the district is facing potential shortfalls for next year.

“I don’t think it’s a good policy,” said Budget Committee Chair Richard Hickock who defends the committee’s recent criticism of the spending.

“I would have rather seen them spend some money

on the light bulbs,” Hickock said, singling out the one item that is not in next year’s budget but in his opinion, could really benefit the district. The “light bulbs” are fluorescent light fixtures that would qualify the district for energy rebate programs and save electricity.

He said further that spending from next year’s budgeted items only serves to create more of a potential surplus for next year.

“It just doesn’t make sense to me (to spend money now on items that are already in next year’s budget),” he said.

He said the Budget Committee understands the revenue side of the School District budget is not entirely known when the administration creates it’s budget but said much of the committee’s frustration comes form listening to administrators tell of how “tight” the budget it only to wind up with a surplus.

He also said he supports the district’s decision to eliminate the salary and staff targeted by the “pink slips” and agrees with the School Board’s decision not to tie this year’s spending to creating more money in next year’s budget to avert the layoffs.

According to School Board minutes, other areas for possible cuts next year are in the area of technical school transportation costs — tuition for students to the Huot Regional Technical Education Center in Laconia — and postponing maintenance projects.

There was also some consideration of eliminating contracted services for special education but until the final state budget is passed and the district knows for sure how much money will be coming, layoffs and other cuts are still moving targets.

RIVER from page 2 ing the spillway, no one seems to doubt that a major flood is bound for Butte LaRose, Krotz Springs, the oil-and-seafood hub of Morgan City and other swampland communities in the Atchafalaya Basin.

The Morganza and the nearby Old River Control Structure were built in the 1950s to keep the Mississippi on its current course through New Orleans, one of the world’s busiest ports. If the river rises much higher at New Orleans, the Coast Guard said Thursday that it would consider restrictions on shipping, including potentially closing the channel to the largest, heaviest ships.

For the people of this region, floods from rain-swol-

len rivers and hurricanes are a familiar hazard. Floodwaters damaged or destroyed many homes and fishing camps in Butte LaRose in 1973, the last time the corps opened the Morganza spillway. Many residents had to wait several weeks before they could return.

Maxim Doucet was born that year. His parents stayed put, even when the floodwaters started lapping at the rear of their grocery store.

Doucet has no intention of leaving town, either.

The water didn’t seep into the store when the flood gauge hit 27 feet in 1973, so Doucet can’t believe the center of town will be submerged in 15 feet of water if the latest forecast for 29 feet proves accurate.

‘Incarnations’ installation featuring work of intermedia artist C.M. Judge at The Studio LACONIA — "Incarnations," an installation of the work of intermedia artist C.M. Judge is on display at The Studio.

The alternative gallery and art space will feature works by Judge that have photographic roots.

“I enjoy the meditative aspect of looking deeply at things around me through the lens of a camera and then taking those images and distilling the enduring, resonant parts arranging them in ways that cause me to simultaneously relate to them physically, emotionally and spiritually,” the artist said.

Fond of the statement, "Art is spirit made visible," Judge's work often focuses on universal themes of identity, intimacy, and spirituality. She runs Moongate Studio in Fitchburg, MA where she creates paintings, installations, video and stained glass.

Judge is currently collaborating with the 7th and 8th graders at Barnstead Elementary School on a large-scale environmental sculpture project as a visiting artist.

Judge co-curates FemLink with French artist Veronique Sapin. More information can be found at femlink.org.

Meadowbrook U.S. Cellular Pavillion to implement carbon footprint offset program

GILFORD — The Meadowbrook U.S. Cellular Pavilion is implementing a carbon footprint offset program.

According to Reverb, the industry leader in making concerts as environmentally friendly as possible, approximately 70 percent of the carbon emissions associated with a concert come in the form of fans driving to see the show. The venue’s new carbon offset program will calculate concertgoers impact on the environment and suggest a donation to invest in a project that will reduce the total amount of CO2 released. The Meadowbrook U.S. Cellular Pavilion will be utilizing an USDA grant and loan program to invest in installing solar panels on the roof of the pavilion.

“When we first started looking into going green we had a conference call with Reverb and asked for their suggestions,” said RJ Harding Meadowbrook U.S. Cellular Pavilion’s president. “We talked about having Reverb come to one of our shows and set up their eco-village as well as offer a carbon offset program to our attendees, both of which have been tremendously successful for them with tours like John Mayer, Dave Matthews, Jack Johnson, and many others over the past few years. After seeing the success of Greenerpalooza I, II and III, we really wanted to implement our own program on a permanent basis and looked into several national partners.

While their programs were great, they were not local and it was very important for us to support a local initiative.

As we begin planning for GreenerPalooza IV, we have launched our own carbon offset program.”

“We are giving our concert attendees from all over New England the opportunity to be a part of a tremendously important project for the music industry and New Hampshire,” said Chris Lockwood, director of Marketing. Reverb attended last year’s Sheryl Crow and Colbie Caillat show know as GreenerPalooza.

GreenerPalooza is a celebration of New Hampshire’s energy efficiency efforts. Sponsored by Citizen’s Bank, PSNH, and the Business Resource Center, more than 5,000 concertgoers not only got to enjoy a concert from a multi-platinum selling artist, they were also able to visit a special eco-village on the midway where vendors extolled the virtues of wind and solar power as well as other alternative energy sources.

“GreenerPalooza is an excellent event for educating concert attendees about what they can do to go green,” said Harding. “Now with our carbon offset program, we can continue to improve our impact on the environment with the help of our fans.” Driving releases carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is a “greenhouse” gas that helps insulate the Earth by trapping and reflecting a portion of the Sun’s radiant heat. Too much CO2 in the atmosphere means too much heat is trapped, thereby changing the Earth’s climate. The venue’s plan to install solar panels will allow for concerts to be run from an sustainable energy source that is not harmful to the environment and reduce the cost of producing the 25 shows it hosts each concert season. The savings in production costs will lead to concert tickets being more affordable.

from preceding page experience to her presentation, including the design and implementation of the resplendent gardens at the Inns and Marketplace in Meredith.

Legendary Kingston Trio in concert at The Flying Monkey Performance Center May 19 PLYMOUTH — The legendary Kingston Trio will appear in concert at The Flying Monkey Performance Center at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, May 19.

Part of the American music fabric for more than 50 years, the Kingston Trio are still as relevant and popular as ever. They have received two Grammy Awards, been named to the Grammy Hall of Fame, and this year they won a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award.

The group emerged from San Francisco’s North Beach club scene in 1957 to take the country by storm, bringing the rich tradition of American folk music into the mainstream for the first time. With their smooth three part harmonies, collegiate appeal, and trademark striped shirts, The Kingston Trio single-handedly revolutionized folk and pop music in America with hits like “Tom Dooley,” “Scotch and Soda,” “Hard, Ain’t It Hard,” and “Tijuana Jail.”

The Trio enjoyed unprecedented record sales and worldwide fame, while influencing the musical tastes of a generation. Through changing times, they are still on the road 30 weeks a year, bringing back great memories and making new ones. As one fan put it, “Our generation might not live forever, but I’ll bet The Kingston Trio will.”

Tickets to the Kinston Trio’s performance are $40 for

‘When Surgery Intersects with War’ topic of presentation

by Dr. Sam Aldridge at Gilford Public Library May 17 GILFORD — Army Reserves Medical Corps member Dr. Sam Aldridge will discuss “When Surgery Intersects With War” at the Public Library from 6 — 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, May 17.

Aldridge, a vascular surgeon, will give a presentation about his experiences as a trauma surgeon in Afghanistan. With three deployments since 9/11, Aldridge was most recently stationed for six months in Logar, an eastern province of Afghanistan situated against the mountains of Pakistan. There Aldridge lived among soldiers on a Forward Operating Base — a base that puts surgeons on the ground with soldiers, and therefore cuts down travel time for the injured. This allows doctors to operate in what’s known as the “golden hour” of injury, when

transportation to another location would cost lives.

In this remote area, Aldridge lived his daily life, performed surgery as needed, and, by sending home a small request for socks for the Afghan soldiers and school supplies for the orphaned children, inspired a movement that brought hundreds of boxes of donations to those in need.

During his presentation, Aldridge will use photographs and stories to explore the development of trauma surgery, his experiences in Afghanistan, and the support he received from an extended community both onsite and home in New Hampshire.

This program is free and open to the public. However, the presentation includes photographs of wartime surgery and is not suitable for children.

Dick and Betty Hanaway to receive honorary degrees at PSU commencement

Dick and Betty Hanaway, Holderness residents, business owners, and civic leaders, will receive honorary doctorate of business degrees at Plymouth State University’s 140th undergraduate commencement ceremony on May 21.

PLYMOUTH — Dick and Betty Hanaway of Holderness, civic leaders and successful business owners, will receive honorary doctorate of business degrees at Plymouth State University’s 140th undergraduate commencement ceremony on May 21.

The Hanaways, longtime philanthropic supporters of PSU, have sought to enrich the entire region through their support of artistic, cultural, and recreational initiatives. The couple has been involved in real estate for decades, bringing affordable and workforce housing to the region, and building condominiums in Waterville Valley and Campton.

According to Plymouth State University President Sara Jayne Steen, “Dick and Betty Hanaway are wonderful citizens and civic leaders who are tremendous role models in using their talents for good. Plymouth State has been honored to work in partnership with the Hanaways over many years to improve the quality of life for everyone in our region.”

To honor the loyal support offered by the Hanaways, Plymouth State named the 665-seat prosce-

nium theatre in the Silver Center for the Arts the Hanaway Theatre, and the ice sheet in the newlyopened PSU Ice Arena is the Hanaway Rink.

Deeply committed to the performing arts, the Hanaways have been avid advocates and supporters over the years of the New Hampshire Music Festival, which takes the stage each summer in the Hanaway Theatre. They volunteer their time in the adaptive ski program at Waterville Valley, working with disabled skiers during the winter months.

Their support for the new PSU Ice Arena reflected their desire to expand recreational activities for people of all ages, resulting in greater community health and wellness.

“We accept this honorary degree with a profound sense of gratitude,” said Dick, who graduated from Colgate University and earned his master’s degree from Rhode Island College. Betty, a graduate of Utica College, added, “Gifting is like sailing beyond the horizon – you can’t see the goal, you just have to believe it will happen.”

Pemi-Baker Home Health & Hospice Aquatic & Wellness Center gets new name PLYMOUTH — Pemi-Baker Home Health & Hospice Aquatic & Wellness Center has announced its new name — Pemi-Baker Community Health.

The 44-year-old non-profit agency will continue to provide quality home health care, end-of-life home hospice care, physical and occupational therapy, and

preventive wellness opportunities in the home and at its facility at Boulder Point.

“We are excited to make this change for a number of reasons,” stated Executive Director Chandra Engelbert. “For one thing, it was getting to be a mouthful. But more importantly, the new name

really reflects our mission of providing diverse, comprehensive health options.”

Over the past year, agency leaders have focused on reviewing and implementing their mission through increased access, preventive care, a wider scope of services, and enhanced personnel and programs.

“Many people don’t know that we do so much more than home care. We have four distinct programs: Home Health, Hospice, Rehab Therapies, and Aquatic & Fitness,” Engelbert said. “Even though our home facility is in Plymouth, we travel to more than 12 towns to bring health care services to individuals and families.”

The move three years ago to its new location gave the agency a chance to bring one-of-a-kind therapy and work-out options to the region. “The addition of our temperature-controlled therapy pool led to an expansion of our physical and occupational therapy department. Often our patients receive home care to recover from an illness or injury, and then transition to Pemi-Baker Rehab Therapies to work with our therapy team consisting of Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, and Speech Therapy. They like it because it’s seamless and friendly,” said Rehab Therapies Director Kara Hamill.

Members of the community may use the therapeutic pool and fitness gym as drop-ins or members of the Pemi-Baker Aquatic & Fitness program. “For overall joint-friendly fitness, you can’t beat a pool workout. Our clients really enjoy the camaraderie of the classes and convenient open scheduling.”

“We take pride in having provided patient-centered care for families and neighbors in the area for so many years, and hope to continue to grow our services to meet the changing needs of our community,” added Engelbert.

Lakes Region Rotary to host yard sale May 21

LACONIA — The Lakes Region Rotary will host a Community Yard Sale at the Department of Public Works from 7 a.m. — 2 p.m. on May 21.

This will be a great opportunity for everyone in and around the Lakes Region to help those in need. Unused items from home or the office that are still serviceable but not needed can be donated. All proceeds from the event will be used to support local charities.

The Community Yard Sale should be a “winwin” event. Some will purge themselves of unused items; others will find that hidden treasure at a bargain price.

Visit www.lakesregionrotary.org or call 273-4195 for more information.

PSU President Sara Jayne Steen said that Haynes offers a wonderful example of an alumnus who lives PSU’s motto, Ut prosim (That I May Serve): “He demonstrates excellence in all that he does, and personifies PSU’s dreams for its graduates, that they will be engaged in good and creative work as they make the world a better place.”

Prior to joining Grappone, Haynes worked for Deloitte & Touche, First NH Bank, and The MEG Companies in various financial and accounting

positions. He became a certified public accountant in 1988 and a certified financial planner in 1991.

Haynes received his MBA in 2000 and completed the Leadership New Hampshire program in 2003.

Haynes recently served on the Advisory Council for the Daniel Webster Council of the Boy Scouts of America. In 2009, he was the recipient of the Plymouth State Distinguished Alumni Service Award. He and his wife, PSU alumna Dawn (Ray) Haynes, are the parents of two daughters, Caitlin and Sarah, and live in Weare.

Pooch Café LOLA

By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You are naturally compelled to help the very young, the very old and anyone with obvious need. Resist the urge to take care of people who are not in any of those categories.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

You may not want the limelight for yourself, but you see the benefit of getting more publicity for your project, your work or your team. You will find it easy to reach many people now.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

Strategize about how you will reach your goal. Remember that when the atmosphere is calm, sudden movements tend to startle anyone with a heartbeat. But in chaos, no one will be fazed.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). It’s absolutely sweet how crazy you are about someone special. Be careful not to make this person the center of your life, though. You are far better suited for that role.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You have social premonitions all the time in the sense that you understand people and can accurately predict how they will react in certain circumstances.

Today’s premonition is even more profound than usual.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (May 13). It’s a lucky year, especially if you happen to have been born on a Friday. But all May 13 birthdays are likely to enjoy love and happiness in this next year, providing you place your affections with those who readily return them. Domestic matters resolve in June. Business brings success in July and October. Sagittarius and Capricorn people adore you.

Your lucky numbers are: 23, 1, 47, 29 and 37.

by Richard Thompson

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’ve wanted a chance to show someone how much he or she means to you.

You’ll now have the perfect opportunity to do so. You’ll give from the heart and be warmly received.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). A certain project seems to be taking over your life in some ways, including financial. Don’t emphasize how expensive it is. Instead, focus on the joy and education it brings you and the bonding that happened because of it.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You are paying attention and firing on all cylinders. No one has to tell you twice. You’ll receive all the messages clearly the first time, including the nonverbal cues.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You always work harder at jobs you really love. You’ll ask tough questions about today’s work. Would you still do this if you were a multimillionaire? If not, what work would you still be willing to do?

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your social circle is expanding, one conversation at a time. Casual fun turns into making plans. It will feel wonderful to make close friends with someone as loving and normal as you are.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You will conduct many experiments as you try to reach a new level of accomplishment. This may pertain to a game or the mastery of a talent. Once you execute an action, analyze the results you get honestly and objectively.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The sound of a storm can be frightening, even when you’re warm inside and there’s very little chance that the weather will affect you. News is the same way. Know that you’re going to be just fine. You are protected. Take courage.

––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Friday, May 13, the 133rd day of 2011. There are 232 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On May 13, 1981, Pope John Paul II was shot and seriously wounded in St. Peter’s Square by Turkish assailant Mehmet Ali Agca (MEH’-met AH’-lee AH’-juh).

On this date: In 1607, English colonists arrived by ship at the site of what became the Jamestown settlement in Virginia (the colonists went ashore the next day).

In 1846, the United States declared that a state of war already existed with Mexico.

In 1861, Britain’s Queen Victoria declared her country’s neutrality in the American Civil War, but also acknowledged that the Confederacy had belligerent rights.

In 1917, three shepherd children near Fatima, Portugal, reported seeing a vision of the Virgin Mary.

In 1918, the first U.S. airmail stamps, featuring a picture of a Curtiss JN-4 biplane, were issued to the public. (On a few of the stamps, the biplane was inadvertently printed upside-down, making them collector’s items.)

In 1940, Britain’s new prime minister, Winston Churchill, told Parliament: “I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.”

In 1958, Vice President Richard Nixon and his wife, Pat, were spat upon and their limousine battered by rocks thrown by antiU.S. demonstrators in Caracas, Venezuela.

In 1961, actor Gary Cooper died in Los Angeles six days after turning 60.

In 1985, a confrontation between Philadelphia authorities and the radical group MOVE ended as police dropped a bomb onto the group’s row house; 11 people died in the resulting fire that destroyed 61 homes.

In 1994, President Bill Clinton nominated federal appeals Judge Stephen G. Breyer to the U.S. Supreme Court to replace retiring Justice Harry A. Blackmun.

One year ago: Three Pakistani men who authorities say supplied funds to Times Square car bomb suspect Faisal Shahzad were arrested in a series of raids in New England.

Today’s Birthdays: Actor Buck Taylor is 73. Actor Harvey Keitel is 72. Author Charles Baxter is 64. Actor Franklyn Ajaye is 62.

Actress Zoe Wanamaker is 62. Singer Stevie Wonder is 61. Former NBA All-Star Dennis Rodman is 50. Actor-comedian Stephen Colbert (kohl-BEHR’) is 47. Rock musician John Richardson (The Gin Blossoms) is 47.

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Friday, May 13, 2011— Page 23

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Dear Annie: My daughter has five beautiful children whom we love very much. My husband and I often take the kids overnight and on weekends to give some quiet time to their parents.

When the children are with us, they behave beautifully. But when their parents walk back in the door, it is a total disaster.

This past weekend was the worst. As soon as their parents came over, the kids began jumping, running around, screaming and teasing the dog. I lost it and really yelled. I know my son-in-law was upset, but he will sit there and do nothing when things like this are going on.

I feel terrible and am depressed about losing control. My daughter and her husband never correct the children, and it is upsetting when my husband and I go out of our way to make a wonderful weekend for the kids and have it end on a sour note.

I want to say something to my daughter and son-in-law, but don’t want to damage our relationship. I have thought of alternatives, such as not taking the children at all, taking only one at a time or only watching the kids at our house. We have a country home, a large yard, a couple of dogs and plenty of space, so it is more enjoyable for us to have the children here anyway.

I am so disappointed, angry and hurt with the children’s behavior, I just want to cry. My husband does not want me to say anything. What do you think? -- Frustrated and Sad Dear Sad: As tempting as it is to criticize your daughter’s parenting skills, we urge you not to. She will resent it enormously. The most helpful thing you can do is teach those children proper behavior when they are with you. Whenever possible, baby-sit at your country home. If they turn into wild animals when their parents pick them up, so be it.

Dear Annie: Counseling is frequently mentioned in your

column, sometimes as your recommendation, sometimes by readers whose partners won’t accompany them and occasionally by someone disappointed or happy with the results.

This makes me wonder how successful counseling is. Perhaps your readers would share their experiences and tell us how to find a good counselor. -- Problem Still Here Dear Problem: You’ve raised some valid issues. So, readers, how about it? Let us know if you’ve tried counseling, how you found your counselor and what your experience was like.

We’ll print the most interesting and helpful responses.

Dear Annie: My boyfriend, “Dan,” recently died after a sudden heart attack. He was only 39 and in seemingly good health.

Dan was completely estranged from his family, so when he had his heart attack, I was the person the hospital contacted, and I was the only one by his bedside. I notified his family, but they didn’t bother to show up until after he died.

At that point, they all swooped down and made funeral arrangements that Dan would not have wanted. Instead of the military funeral and religious service he once told me he preferred, the family had him cremated with no service at all.

I was told there was nothing I could do because Dan didn’t leave a will, nor had he named me as the person to handle arrangements. In most states, the immediate family, no matter how distant, has the right to make those decisions.

Annie, please let your readers know how important it is for people to make a will and give specific instructions. It could save a lot of grief and misunderstanding. -- Sadder but Wiser Dear Sadder: People don’t like to think about their funerals, especially if they are relatively young. But anyone who has specific wishes should put them in writing and see that everyone has a copy. Our condolences.
