LACONIA — Citing the challenge of juggling the demands of his job and his duties as mayor, Mike Seymour announced yesterday that he will not seek re-election to a third term. As senior vice-president of marketing and retail services at Franklin Savings Bank, Seymour said that “I have found that
to do both jobs to the best of my abilities has become a greater and greater challenge.” The mayor, he believes, apart from official duties, which include chairing the Laconia Airport Authority and serving on the Human Relations Committee as well as presiding over the City Council, should also be a constant presence in the community. “I feel a responsibility to be available and accessible for everything that involves the
city,” he remarked, “and that has become more and more difficult for me.” Recalling the recent report of the independent auditors, which found the city in a strong financial position, Seymour said that “knowing that the city is in a good position makes it easier to step down.” He noted that except for Councilor Matt Lahey (Ward 2) five of the six incumbent councilsee SEyMOUr page 9

New Mexico mom chases down child abductor
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — A mother whose 4-year-old was being abducted chased the suspect down and crashed her vehicle into his car, triggering a manhunt and the arrest of the suspect, Albuquerque police said Thursday. The young girl was playing in her yard at St. Anthony’s Plaza Apartments in Albuquerque’s North Valley about 6:30 p.m. Wednesday when a group of teenagers saw the kidnapping and ran to alert the girl’s mother, police said. The family called 911 and the mother jumped into her vehicle and gave chase for about seven miles, unaware the man had pushed the girl out of the silver Buick before fleeing the apartment complex, authorities said. The girl was found wandering nearby, uninjured, police said. According to police, the mother, who has not been identified, followed the suspect and finally rammed into his car near an intersection. The suspect fled on foot, police said. The attempted kidnapping sparked a massee MOM page 7

California sales fuel $550 million Powerball jackpot SAN DIEGO (AP) — The numbers sum up the frenzy that has taken over the Golden State since it became the newest in the nation to join the madness over Powerball, which saw its jackpot soar Thursday to $550 million. California has sold $83 million worth of Powerball tickets since it started selling them in April and overall has accounted for 11 percent of the game’s sales in the country, fueling such fast-growing megajackpots like the latest one that has the potential to be a record-breaker.
The state expects to generate well above the originally estimated $50 million for public education, California lottery director Robert O’Neill told The Associated Press. “One thing California has brought Powerball is sunshine and good fortune,” he said. “It has surprised us. We’re very happy.” Californians have Nevadans to thank for some of that good fortune. California’s biggest ticket-seller is the Primm Valley Lotto store, which straddles the state line in tiny Nipton, a 19th cen-
tury mining and ranching town on the edge of the Mojave desert whose booming lottery sales have put it on the map in modern times. Roxie Handley figured all 80 of its residents would have a ticket in hand by Saturday. That’s if they can find the time. “Here in Nipton, it’s crazy,” said Handley, 59, who manages the Nipton Trading Post, which also sells Powerball tickets. “We’re stocking up on everything. Last night, I heard some people had to wait nine hours in line.” see POWERBALL page 8
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama said Thursday the nation’s military leaders told him they are “ashamed” of their failure to end sexual abuse in the armed services. Obama pledged to “leave no stone unturned” in the effort to halt the abuse, which he said undermines the trust the military needs to be effective. Obama also said he has asked Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel and Joint Chiefs of
Staff Chairman Martin Dempsey to lead a process to root out the problem. “They care about this and they are angry about it,” Obama said at the White House, after he summoned Hagel, Dempsey and other top defense leaders to discuss a problem thrust to the fore by recent misconduct cases and a Pentagon report showing that up to 26,000 military members may have been sexually assaulted last year. “I heard directly from all of them that
they are ashamed by some of what’s happened,” Obama said. Earlier Thursday, the Army’s top officer acknowledged that his service is failing in its effort to stop sexual assaults. Gen. Ray Odierno, the Army chief of staff, issued a public message to all soldiers in which he said the “bedrock of trust” between soldiers and their leaders has been violated by a recent string of missee MILITARY page 12

LRGHeathcare salutes donors who put $4 million fund drive over the top By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — The lobby of Lakes Region General Hospital rang with the sound of clinking glasses early yesterday evening as officials of LRGHealthcare hosted and toasted those who contributed to the “Strengthening the Community’s Well-Being” capital campaign to fund renovations at the corporation’s hospitals in Laconia and Franklin. Altogether the effort has raised $4,026,591.23 that will be applied to emergency department and endoscopy suite at Lakes Regional General Hospital and medical imaging technology and the dining room at Franklin Regional Hospital as well as to creating single patient rooms and providing new furniture and furnishings at both hospitals. Dr. Paul Racicot, emergency services physician at LRGHealthcare, who co-chaired the campaign, said that all the trustees and senior executives and managers, together with nearly 60-percent of the employees, contributed to the campaign. He singled out the community banks — Bank of New Hampshire, Meredith Village Savings Bank, Franklin Savings Bank — all of them represented at the celebration, as “the cornerstone of this campaign.” Quoting Sir Winston Churchill, Racicot closed by saying “we make a living by what we get, we make a

When it comes to health care, consumers are bad drivers For years, conservatives have pushed for a health-insurance model emphasizing catastrophic coverage. It works as follows: Consumers pay the cost of ordinary care, such as a checkup, a blood test or an eye exam. Insurance kicks in only for major crises — a heart attack, cancer requiring extensive treatment, a kidney transplant, intensive care for a newborn. The Affordable Care Act, also known as ObamaCare, goes in the other direction by expanding Medicaid to more lower-income Americans. Medicaid picks up the bills for the “little things.” Catastrophic coverage and other “consumer driven” approaches won’t work as the basis for health reform. But before we go into the reasons why, let’s put in a few good words for catastrophic coverage — and its cousin, the health savings account. An HSA marries a high deductible (paid before insurance starts picking up the big bills) to a tax-favored savings account from which people can tap money for smaller medical expenses. What we most fear are medical “catastrophes” leading to bankruptcy or the inability to afford appropriate care. This kind of coverage protects against financial traumas. Meanwhile, asking consumers to dig into their pockets for routine care makes them more careful about spending. Here’s the problem: You and I may nod in agreement over the merits of catastrophic coverage. We are informed, and our financial lives are organized. We make it our business to save for retirement. We budget for unforeseen expenses. We know not to rack up big balances on our credit cards. Other, perhaps most, Americans don’t do these things. Or they would if they weren’t supporting families on low-paying jobs. Loss of work, death of provider or punishing education costs might leave no budgetary room for a doctor’s visit. If the choice were buying textbooks for your child or skipping a physical, which would you do? Yes, there are those who could easily afford health coverage and don’t buy it, preferring to roll the
dice that nothing awful will happen. If they lose, they’re still let into the emergency room. The responsible ones will pay for their care. When they’re old enough, they’ll have Medicare. And if conservatives have their way, forcing more means-testing into Medicare, those who didn’t protect their finances by buying insurance will pay less into the program than those who did. ObamaCare does not get into the backstory of why people don’t have health coverage. What it does is make sure they get it. At the same time, it addresses the wasteful spending problem that consumer-driven health plans are supposed to solve. ObamaCare just does it in different ways. For starters, the health care reforms promote primary care, whereby family doctors help patients avoid expensive specialists when they don’t need them. And it would start changing the way medical providers are paid. Rather than charging a fee for every service, providers would be paid a set price to cover soup-tonuts care for a particular condition. That would take away the financial incentive to overprescribe tests and office visits. And because doctors don’t earn more if their care is substandard and the patient has to return, they have an incentive to do it right the first time. Consumer-driven health care is still fee-for-service. Patients are the ones to decide when they are being sold too much or too expensive medicine. But how many of us can second-guess our doctor on what treatment we should have? Doing so may be wise, or it may be dangerous. Thing is, average, or even above-average, Americans probably don’t know which. Consumers do participate in their health care decisions, but if they don’t trust their doctors to drive properly, they need to change doctors.

LETTERS Millions thought their own government would never kill them To the editor, Even while admitting his mistake about the “Fast and Furious” program which, as Jay Kennedy pointed out (May 14), James Veverka continues trying to mislead readers into thinking was “a continuation of George Bush’s 2006 gun walking program called ‘Operation Wide Receiver’.” These programs were very different. The Bush program was a joint US-Mexican program, the Obama program was kept secret from the Mexicans. The Bush program tracked guns via embedded tracking devices. The Obama program didn’t track the guns. The Bush program ended when gangsters found and removed the tracking devices. The Obama program ended when the public discovered that Obama had supplied guns that killed Americans and helped kill thousands of Mexicans. The purpose of the Bush program was to damage the drug cartels. Bush and our country were widely criticized for allowing guns from America to get into the hands of Mexican gangsters. Considering Bush’s results, what could have been the purpose of Obama’s gun running program? No credible explanation has been provided. Did the Obama administration think that their program would hurt the drug cartels? That would require a “willing suspension of disbelief.” The likely explanation is that “Fast and Furious” was intended to fuel our country’s outrage and sense of guilt for gun violence in Mexico. This “crisis” was intended to justify more gun controls, each control inching towards the
liberal goal of confiscating guns from law abiding citizens. Most crime is prevented by effective law enforcement, not general gun controls and confiscations. Gun controls and confiscations serve another purpose, extending government control of citizens. Some liberals admit they want gun confiscation, e.g., Biden, Schumer, and Feinstein. Others reveal their desire by promoting laws like the Toomey-Manchin bill that will create more victims rather than fewer, and that harass and restrict the rights of law abiding citizens far more than they hinder criminals. Have governments taken advantage of citizen control obtained by gun confiscations? Yes. In the twentieth century, 100-250 million people falsely thought “my government wouldn’t kill me and my family”, but they did. Roughly 10 to 20 times as many citizens were murdered by their own governments as were murdered by other citizens. While liberals ridicule the idea of U.S. government abuse, there are many examples: slavery, Wounded Knee, Japanese internments, Jim Crow laws, etc. Knowing that people are corruptible, America’s founders created the Second Amendment to ensure that citizens have the ability to defend their rights and liberties from an oppressive government if the political processes fail. To avoid the unthinkable, Americans must prevent the erosion of each of their constitutional rights, including the Second Amendment. Don Ewing Meredith

To the editor, Talking points? Fake scandal? When military personnel ready to deploy to assist the besieged mission in Benghazi are ordered to stand down for political reasons; when the White House crafts talking points that are boldface lies, not spin, to cover this up; when the president has a closed door meeting with select members of the press concerning these revelations; I’d say this is more than a fake scandal or talking points.

LETTERS Ayotte’s vote represents the worst of Washington politics
Let’s not run out of ammunition before the law breakers do
To the editor, Senator Ayotte: While I appreciate your response to my note, I find your explanation rather weak. I attended your “town hall meeting” in Tilton, where you said basically the same thing and then failed to respond directly to my and many others’ concerns regarding your vote. It was cowardly of you to ignore the “elephant in the room” that one questioner referenced and instead respond to a clearly political question about Benghazi. What I wanted to ask was how you justify ignoring the will of 90 percent of your constituents? After all, you are an elected member of our representative democracy who has a responsibility to respect the will of the people. When do 90 percent of us agree on anything and what is your justification for ignoring our consensus on background checks?
To the editor, I know Ms. Loesch wants Don Ewing to respond to her latest and most urgent request in her recent letter, but I thought I would try and assist her in her search for rationality. Since it is rarely found in the leftist lunasphere, I thought that like Mighty Mouse, I’d try to come and save her day. As far as I know, folks aren’t allowed to “arm themselves with weapons of mass destruction”. North Korea has em and Iran wants them desperately. So, other than some far right wing extremists, as identified by the Southern Poverty Law Center, who may be armed with a few nuclear powered rocket launchers, our beloved government doesn’t allow us to keep WMD type arsenals. That would be much to the chagrin of unrepentant mad bomber, Bill Ayers and his “perps turned profs” buddies, Bernadine Dohrn and Kathy Boudin. Those would be just two of the radical 60s, retro “Occupy Wall Street” wack jobs who are teaching our children their anti-capitalist/Christian, secular humanism/moral relativism, collectivist crap. Not content just to seduce men into destructive activities, these femme fatales now are intent on leading our youth into destructive, warped socialist ideologies, but I digress. Why would folks need “high power weaponry”, you ask. Ah, would that you meant that question rhetorically. However, I know you mean that sincerely, which succinctly encapsulates the bizarre world of “modern day lib-

From your response and your op-ed, you appear to think we are ignorant; we are wrong about background checks and you are right about our “broken” system. But, how is it broken if, 76,412 people were referred to the BATF and thus denied access to guns? Isn’t this what background checks are designed for? Don’t we want to first make it harder for criminals to get guns and then to prosecute them whenever we can? And, when you were N.H. Attorney General, did you have the resources to follow up on every case referred to your office? Does the BATF have the resources they need to follow up on every NICS referral and do you support providing them with those resources? You write in your op-ed that ads are poisoning this important discussion. Yet, your claim that the Grassley-Cruz amendment is somehow “bi-partisan,” lacks the seriousness this issue deserves. What is bi-partisan is the will of the 90 percent of the people that you ignored; 270,000,000 Americans disagree with you. In Tilton, I wanted to explain that your vote represents the worst of Washington politics; a political system where power begets power, money begets money, special interests always prevail, and the will of the people is increasingly irrelevant. With every day and every vote Washington moves us closer and closer to a Plutocracy. Is this the legacy you want? Steve Merrill Meredith
erals” (even if you aren’t one). I think Thomas Sowell summed it up nicely in one of his recent columns. Limiting the amount of “firepower” one is allowed to have will only “ensure that the law abiding citizen runs out of ammo before the criminal does”. I would suggest Ms. Loesch, that you might want to change your position since you are siding with the likes of Diane Feinstein, N.Y. Mayor Michael Bloomberg, Barack Obama and “just shoot your shotgun through the door” Joe Biden. Are you seriously okay with having bureaucrats decide how many rounds one is allowed to have in a magazine? If multiple invaders to one’s house enter encumbered with “high powered weaponry”, is it fair or rational or safe for the homeowner to be restrained by a certain limited amount of rounds? So you see, the answer is really just so darn simple and sensible. Let’s ensure that law abiding citizens have enough firepower so that they do not run out of ammunition before the law breaking intruders do. President Obama’s desire for more unenforceable and ineffective gun control laws has nothing to do with saving the lives of children. As a liberal, socialist, Marxist, egomaniacal central planner or whatever he has evolved to become, he detests the fact that our Constitution is a document of limiting powers. Rather by fiat, executive order or plain old Chicago thuggery, he wants to diminish a vital buildsee next page

To the editor, In defending his opposition to tax rate increases for the affluent, Speaker of the House John Boehner continuously says, “Small business is the engine of job creation in America.” Even in a news conference, no one questions him. Yet, the statement is overly simplistic, under researched and misleading. Perhaps no politician of either party wants to risk explaining the economic impacts of small business are limited, and “small business” is not what most voters think it is. When looking at jobs in the American economy, investigators classify business as small, medium or large by establishment size. They calculate the number of new jobs produced in each tier and conclude small business does indeed produce the bulk of them. It seems to make sense. At any one time, there could be thousands of restaurants hiring. On the other hand, there are only 120 automobile assembly plants in the United States. The conclusion, however, glosses over a couple of realities, both of which independently refute, or at least complicate, the speaker’s adage. One is the very nature of business in the jobcreation arena. The other is the difference between establishments (the unit of analysis) and firms. First, the nature of business as it pertains to jobs: Job destruction, job creation is a continuous process. Destruction occurs when an incumbent leaves a position. In calculating job destruction, the underlying reason for departure (death, promotion, termination, furlough, resignation, etc.) is not considered. Creation is the opposite: A person enters or begins a job. Again, the underlying rationale (new hire, recall, transfer, etc.) does not influence the calculation. The number of “new jobs,” whether across the economy, in an industry or at an establishment, is a simple calculation: Job creation minus job destruction equals new jobs. (In the worst of times, this could be a negative number.) So, for instance, if the restaurant down the street hired two cooks, and
a dishwasher quit, analysts would say this establishment experienced two job creations and one destruction. Therefore, it generated one new job. Every first Friday, the Bureau of Labor Statistics cumulates individual establishment numbers and issues its monthly “Employment Situation Report” – America’s official “jobs numbers.” Instead of parsing establishments by size, however, number crunchers could analyze jobs data by establishment age; that is, how long has an establishment existed? This analysis produces findings that muddy the establishment-by-size analysis. Establishments in their startup year generate about two-thirds of all new jobs. In other words, startup establishments produce two new jobs for every one new job generated by all the establishments — regardless of size — that have existed for at least a year. With this finding, the speaker might conclude, “startups are the engine of job creation in America.” Instead of advocating tax breaks for business owners and managers, he might pursue strategies to encourage innovation and entrepreneurship. Second, the difference between establishments and firms: To produce valid findings, investigators must collect analogous data from comparable sources. “Establishments” are comparable sources. They are the places where people conduct business. They produce analogous data, their payrolls. In the case of the “jobs numbers,” the methodology is sound. Calculations are valid. Findings are accurate. Nonetheless, results can be misleading. The culprit is the unit of analysis, establishment size. Consider two pharmaceutical retailers a block apart. Both the family drugstore on Elm Street and the CVS Pharmacy on Main Street conduct business onsite and have payrolls. Therefore, both are establishments for data collection purposes. However, even though CVS employs about 200,000 people with nearly 7,460 retail stores nationwide, its establishment on Main Street is a small business by definition — less than 50 see next page

declined annually by 39 percent from 18,253 in 1993 to 11,101 in 2011. This is corroborated by annual FBI statistics. And this has occurred while gun ownership and concealed carry has increased precipitously. Sadly, your favorite media site has most likely hid this information from you. So, to summarize, citizens need “high power weaponry” to maintain an advantage over criminals who would seek their untimely demise. Ultimately, the 2nd Amendment must be kept intact to keep a looming, tyrannical government from knocking down the wall of liberty built by our founding fathers. At least that is my answer to your exasperated request for an answer. I hope I have been of some assistance in bringing you clarity or at least some food for thought with regard to this issue.

How else to ply this constitutional republic into statist putty in order to prepare it for the “fundamental transformation” into an “Agenda 21” entity or some “sustainable” facsimile thereof.

A helicopter with heat-sensor cameras also was sent in for the search, authorities said. Police arrested David Hernandez, 31, on Thursday afternoon and he was charged with kidnapping, police spokeswoman Tasia Martinez said. It was not known if Hernandez had an attorney. Kevin Abar, assistant special agent in charge of Homeland Security Investigations, confirmed to The Associated Press that federal agents also helped Albuquerque police with the investigation. In February, HSI and local enforcement agencies launched the Sexual Predator and Exploitation Enforcement Detail, or SPEED — a task force aimed at finding missing and abducted children. Police were also investigating a possible connection to the abduction and sexual assault of a 6-year-old from the same apartment complex last week. The suspect in that case was described as a male in a silver or gray vehicle. Gilbert Hernandez, 25, a resident at the St. Anthony’s, said he found the 6-year-old last week and was the one who contacted police. “This place isn’t safe. People always let their kids run around here,” Hernandez said. “We are all on the lookout now.”
Winni Salmon Derby this weekend; grand prize winner will have to pass polygraph test By RogeR Amsden FOR THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — There’s a new twist for the this year’s annual Winni Salmon Derby. The winner of the $12,500 first prize for the largest landlocked salmon caught on the big lake over the weekend, as well as the person who witnessed the catch, will be subject to a polygraph test to ensure that they are telling the truth about where the fish was landed. ‘’There’s been some concern, due to the rumors and information on some fishing blogs, that it’s possible that some of the past entries weren’t landed in Lake Winnipesaukee,’’ says Dianne LaBrie, chairman of the derby which is now run by the Laconia Rotary Club. LaBrie says that the response from fishermen and on the blogs has been overwhelmingly supportive of the decision to require the polygraph test, which has long been a part of the derby’s rules but has never been invoked before. ‘’It gives people confidence that it’s fair for everyone involved,’’ says LaBrie. The polygraph examination will be administered by Crawford Polygraph Service of Moultonborough and will be scheduled after the event at the convenience of all involved.
LaBrie said that registrations were very busy on Thursday and she expects that there will be at least as many taking part as last year, when about 1,300 anglers registered. ‘’Actually I’d like to see the sun go away. Fishing for salmon is best when it’s cloudy and there’s a little chop on the water,’’ said LaBrie. Over $50,000 in prizes will be awarded over the weekend in the derby, which is the largest landlocked salmon and lake trout derby in the state. Only salmon and lake trout taken from Winnipesaukee are eligible for the prizes, which include a $12,500 grand prize in the salmon division, and a $5,000 grand prize in the lake trout division. The runner-up in the salmon division will won $2,500 and the second place lake trout will net the angler $1,000. The winner of the Junior Division will receive a 14 foot Alumacraft boat and trailer. Weigh-in station for the event will be at Weirs Beach and the station will be open from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. Friday and Saturday and from 8 a.m. to noon on Sunday. All fish weighed in between 6 and 9 p.m. on Friday or Saturday will qualify for the next day’s awards. Daily awards will be presented at the Lacuna Ice Arena starting at 7 p.m. on Friday and Saturday and 1:30 p.m. on Sunday.

Regina Theberge, administrative assistant for the Laconia School District’s Project EXTRA program, and Randy Brough, Laconia City Library librarian, plan for the Gale to Goss Library Walk which will take place Saturday at 10 a.m. Participants will have an opportunity to win a Kindle. (Roger Amsden photo for the Laconia Daily Sun)
Gale to Goss Library Walk is Saturday LACONIA — A Gale to Goss Library Walk Saturday morning at 10 a.m. will celebrate Laconia’s public reading spaces and offer participants an opportunity to see some of the city’s history along the way. Both the Laconia Public Library, where the walk begins, and the Goss Reading Room, where it ends, were gifts to the city and opened only four years apart. The Laconia Public Library was a gift from Napoleon Bonaparte Gale, who died in 1894 and left most of his fortune to the city of Laconia, with the provision that a library and city park be built with it.. The former John C. Moulton house was purchased as a site and work started on the Romanesque Revival style building in 1901. It was completed and opened to the public in 1903. The Goss Reading Room was built following the 1903 Lakeport fire, which destroyed over 100 homes and left 500 people homeless. Among those whose home was destroyed was that of Dr. Ossian Wilbur Goss. He died shortly after the fire but had prepared a plan for the site of his former Elm Street home which his will described as ‘’the homestead house to be erected’’ and was given to city of Laconia as ‘’the Ossian Wilbur Goss Reading Rooms.’’ The walk with start at the Laconia Public Library and proceed along the WOW Trail to Lakeport Square, then move northwest on Elm Street.
Participants will see the Messer Street crossing where an 1897 wreck involving a horse drawn buggy and a train, resulting in the death of two people, led to the creation seven months later of Laconia’s first hospital, the Laconia Cottage Hospital on Court Street, They will also see the former Lakeport mills which once were the center of a world-wide knitting machine manufacturing and visit the Lakeport Railroad Station museum, where machinery which once was manufactured in Lakeport can be seen. Randy Brough, library director, says that the walk is sponsored by the library in partnership with the WOW Trail, the Laconia Historical and Museum Society and the Laconia School District’s Project EXTRA. Each youth who participates in the walk will receive some of Laconia Middle School’s TWIST program’s original WOW Trail Mix, a free raffle ticket for a chance to win a Kindle reader and a 10 books for $10 reading log from TD Bank North. The event will also see the unveiling of Laconia Middle School’s mascot, as well as four reading stations along the WOW trail with special guest readers. Once walkers reach the Goss Reading Room they will receive a drink and a free book and will finish out the morning with a ride back to the Laconia Public Library on Molly the Trolley. — Roger Amsden
POWERBALL from page 2 The town is near the main route between California and Las Vegas. Residents of the nation’s No. 1 gambling state do not have access to the lottery. The Nevada state constitution contains a prohibition on lotteries, which are seen as competition to the casino industry. Norma Wagoner was among the Nevadans trying their luck. She and a group of friends pooled their money
to buy 20 tickets and sent one over the state border to endure the long lines. “Everybody has dreams,” she said. “All it takes is one ticket.” Officials expect the jackpot to keep growing before Saturday’s drawing that could break Powerball’s November 2012 record of $587.5 million. The latest kitty leapt nearly $200 million since Wednesday’s drawing, which was an estimated $360 million. see next page
Wyatt Park improvement work underway LACONIA — As National Kids to Parks Day on Saturday, May 18 approaches, improvements to Wyatt Park are underway as part of the Wyatt Park-South End Community Revitalization Project. The project, supported by Lakes Region HEAL and the City of Laconia, includes extensive pans to renovate the park and immediate surroundings. The renovation plans were developed in response to feedback from residents and business owners in the Wyatt Park-South End community. Safety and access to the park were some of the top concerns voiced by the community during several forums conducted by Healthy Eating Active Living (HEAL) N.H. over the past nine months. Funding provided by HEAL N.H. and the City of Laconia will allow for the following improvements to Wyatt Park: water bubbler/bottle filling station will be installed in the park; high visibility signs and other pedestrian safety features will be added; new fencing; lighting and new crosswalks for safety; and the basketball court will be resurfaced. “With National Kids to Parks Day
coming up, we thought it would be a great opportunity to let the community know about the improvements being made to the park,” said Amy Lovisek from Laconia’s Parks and Recreation Department. “While it will take a few months to complete all the projects, in the end, it will be safer and easier to get to the park, and it will be a beautiful, safe place to exercise or just to gather with family and friends.” The Wyatt Park-South End Community Revitalization Project in Laconia as developed as a result of a two-year HEAL N.H. grant awarded to the City of Laconia in collaboration with Lakes Region HEAL. The grant was awarded in early 2012 to help Laconia identify and implement municipal strategies to provide more choices for residents to eat healthy and be physically active in the Wyatt Park-South End Community. More information about the Wyatt Park-South End Community Revitalization can be found on Facebook at http:// www.facebook.com/WyattParkSouthEndCommunityRevitalizationProject or at http://www.city.laconia.nh.us/index. php/departments/parks-inside.
SEYMOUR from page one ors, four of whom have served together for four terms, have indicated they will re-election. Assuming they are successful, he said that they would provide “continuity and stability.” “I’ve absolutely loved my time as mayor,” Seymour said. He mentioned the search and selection of a city manager to succeed Eileen Cabanel among the highlights of his tenure, adding that the council “hit it out of the park” by appointing Scott Myers. As a candidate Seymour proposed developing a strategic plan for the city, a process that began in earnest with the appointment of Myers. “We have a plan that is set annually and reviewed quarterly with specific objectives that allows us to measure our progress,” he said. Seymour said he was encouraged that the city has taken the first steps towards regional cooperation with
neighboring towns as well as by the relationships he developed with the local business community and the unions representing the municipal employees. Repeating that the city finds itself in a good place and in good hands, Seymour said that his decision creates an opportunity “for someone to step up and bring fresh and new ideas to the table.” City Councilor Bob Hamel (Ward 5), who was rumored to be eying the mayor’s office, admitted yesterday “I’m interested” only to quickly add “but I’m not going to do it.” He said that he enjoyed serving on the Finance and Lands and Building committees and, acknowledging that the mayor who only votes to break ties, remarked “I want to keep my vote.” The filing period for the mayor and city council election opens on Wednesday, June 5 and closes on Friday, June 14.
from preceding page The $550 million jackpot is the second largest in Powerball history and third biggest overall. Lottery officials expect jackpots to continue growing faster and bigger, thanks in part to a game redesign in January 2012 that increased the odds of winning some kind of prize of a lesser amount. On Wednesday, $1 million prizes were won in 16 states, and $2 million prizes were won in two states. California had six tickets among the winning ones Wednesday, including one sold in Nipton. More than half of the all-time jackpot records have been reached in the last three years. The top two all-time jackpots — $656 million from a Mega Millions jackpot and $587.5 million from a Powerball jackpot — were achieved in 2012. Some states, like California, now sell tickets for both games. The last major jackpot win came
when a New Jersey man won a $338.3 million jackpot March 23. It is now considered the fourth largest Powerball jackpot in history. For Nipton, folks feel they’ve already won thanks to the boom in business. “It kind of disrupts our peace and quiet,” said Handley, although she admits she too plans to snap up a ticket. Most of the talk she hears around town these days, she says, is of people daydreaming about quitting their jobs and traveling with their millions: “Everybody wants a piece of the pie.” But she said she would likely give most of it away. “Having a lot of money I think would be a lot of headache,” she said. “Nipton has a lot of history. It’s the place to come if you want to get away. We have a fiveroom bed and breakfast with no phones, no TVs, where you can sit and watch the trains go by. It’s our little piece of heaven. I have things money can’t buy.”

Detective Chris Noyes names Officer of the Year by Laconia Police Department By Gail OBer
THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — Detective Christopher R. A. Noyes was named Officer of the Year yesterday in a brief ceremony at the Police Commission meeting at Laconia Police Station. Noyes, primarily a drug detective in the Bureau of Criminal Investigations, was commended for his 28 drug arrests in 2012, his previous work with the N.H. Drug Task Force and his ability execute search warrants resulting in the cultivation of informants. So far in 2013 he has made 23 drug purchases and 25 arrests. He began his career in 1997 with the University of New Hampshire Police Department and joined the Laconia Police Department five years later. Before becoming a detective, Noyes was a mountain bike patrol officer, a patrol training officer and an evidence officer. Chief Christopher Adams said he is known for his attention to detail and his work ethic. Dispatcher Marnell Dilorenzo was given the Meritorious Service Award for coordinating a response for a man who called police to report his son was suicidal and in possession of a shotgun. Adams said she not only kept the man on the phone while police responded but managed to alert the detectives and use the telephone to alert officers who were responding to another call. “Dilorenzo did all this while still answering several incoming calls that were unrelated to the incident,” Adams said.
Other recipients of the Meritorious Service Awards were Master Patrol Officer Benjamin Black and Patrol Officer Robert Sedgley. Officer Michael Armstrong was awarded a Wounded in Service Medal. He was assaulted by a person who was a passenger in a car that had been stopped by a different officer for suspicious of driving under the influence. Armstrong was able to bring the person to the ground despite being punched in the face and suffering a broken nose. When he continued to fight, the man was hit with a Taser by the supervisor. While Armstrong was fighting with the suspect, a third passenger who was in his cruiser awaiting transport, began kicking out the car’s windows. He was transported by the Gilford Police van to the Laconia Police station all the while continuing to struggle. Armstrong at one point needed to handcuff the man’s ankles to stop him from kicking the van’s plexiglass windows. Adams said Armstrong followed the Gilford Police van to the Laconia Police station and eventually took the subject to the Belknap County Jail after he refused to cooperate. Armstrong returned to the police station, completed the required paperwork and arrest affidavits and went to the hospital. After being treated and released, he returned to the police station and completed his officer injury report. He has since had reconstructive surgery, is back on duty and both men are serving jail and/or prison sentences for their actions that night.
In a surprise moment, Sgt. Michael Finogle was honored for his 10 years as the Laconia Canine Officer. Adams presented Finogle with a plaque that was etched by the students at the Huot Technical Center and embossed with photos of both his police dogs — “Yago” and “Yogi”. Nobody, including Adams, knows how they managed to lure Finogle, who typically works the midnight shift, to the station yesterday to receive his honor, but Adams quipped he had been holding on to it for about a year but had been unable to get him to a previous commission meeting. “Yago”, who retired last year, was not present and was believed to be curled up on Finogle’s couch while his master was accepting his award. Annual awards are given in May to honor National Police Week that was May 12 to May 18 this year. NEW ORLEANS from page 2 city, police said. Mayor Mitch Landrieu and police Chief Ronal Serpas hailed the police work as proof of officials’ determination to end sporadic violence that mars the image of the tourism-dependent city. “We will not let up,” Landrieu said. “We are demanding that the shooting stop. And we will make sure that we do everything in our power, which I hope people now see is substantial, to make sure that we protect the citizens of New Orleans.” A magistrate judge set bond for Akein Scott at $10 million Thursday morning in the attempted murder case. Another judge ordered him held without bond pending a later hearing on an unrelated gun and weapon charge. Shawn Scott’s court appearances were not yet scheduled. His Thursday morning arrest was announced by Serpas, Landrieu and District Attorney Leon Cannizzaro at a news conference in the middle of the intersection where the shooting took place, off the beaten path for most tourists but less than two miles from the popular French Quarter. Surrounding the officials were dozens of uniformed officers and onlookers from the neighborhood. FIGHT from page one One of Gallos’s relatives said yesterday that Gallos and the rest of his family, except his niece, were away from the home at the time. The relative said Andrews and Gallos know each other, describing Andrews as a “friend of a friend.” The relative said her niece had left the door open so her younger brother could get in when he came home from playing outside so when she heard what she said sounded like someone slamming kitchen cabinet doors she came into the kitchen expecting to find her kid brother and yell at him. Instead, she allegedly found Andrews on top of the counter looking through the family’s stuff and reaching up into the drop ceiling tiles. “Hey, who are you,” the relative said the girl asked of Andrews who allegedly told her he was a friend of “Mike’s” and was told to come to the house to get him something. Andrews allegedly then ran away. His niece told Gallos about Andrews and Gallos chased him to Cumberland Farms where the two fought. Gallos allegedly threw Andrews into one of the displays and caused some damage said Ashley. “(Gallos) is really upset,” said the relative who said police did charge him with four misdemeanor counts of disorderly conduct, simple assault, criminal threatening and criminal mischief. “I am fairly confident the police will sort this out,” said the relative who noted the girl is fine and was initially very excited to go to the police station to participate in what she thought would be a “CSI — television-type line-up.” “Yeah,” said Ashley. “Real life isn’t anywhere near as exciting as they make it on television.” He added that picking someone out from a photo array is actually more difficult than a physical police line-up because all of the people in the photos look very similar. “She did a great job,” Ashley said.

LACONIA — When Sami Hicks entered eighth grade at Laconia Middle School, her mother, Tracy Durgin, once a distance runner at Pelham High School, encouraged her to run cross country and she has run ever since, to winner’s circles, school records and yesterday to college. Before a crowd of family, friends, coaches and teammates Hicks signed a letter of intent to accept a scholarship at Stetson University in DeLand, Florida, where she will study elementary education and run cross country. Andy Mercer, the cross country coach at Laconia High School, said that “Sami has been among the top cross country runners in New Hampshire since she was a freshman. She is the reigning Division III champion, a title she claimed by covering the fivekilometer course at Derryfield Park in Manchester in 19 minutes 38 seconds and holder of the school record at five kilometers at 18 minutes 17 seconds. “She’s versatile,” said Chris Beyer, the track and field coach, noting that Hicks has qualified to compete in seven events in the state championships — the 200 meters, 300 meter hurdles, 400 meters, 800 meters, 1,600 meters, 3,200 meters and high jump. Byer recalled a mile Hicks, then a sophomore, ran against a friend from Milford, who she expected to breakaway midway through the race to compensate for her lack of finishing speed. “Let her go,” Byers told Hicks. When the girl opened a lead of 60 meters halfway through the third lap, a rival coach asked him if his runner was going to make a move. “I think so,” Byers replied. Still some 60 or 70 meters behind with less than 100 meters to go, he put the same question again. “I hope so,” Byers answered. With that Hicks turned on the jets to win by five one-hundredths of a second. Anna Solomon, her coach in middle school, counted running a race in Concord with — and well behind — Hicks, who greeted her with open arms at the finish line, among her greatest thrills. She said MILITARY from page 2 conduct cases. He said the Army demonstrated competence and courage through nearly 12 years of war. “Today, however, the Army is failing in its efforts to combat sexual assault and sexual harassment,” he wrote. “It is time we take on the fight against sexual assault and sexual harassment as our primary mis251 DANIEL WEBSTER HIGHWAY MEREDITH, NH 03253 WWW.LOVERINGMEREDITH.COM

that from the beginning Hicks “challenged and disciplined herself” and “excelled not only on the track but also in the classroom.” Mercer spoke of Hicks’s talent, but stressed her work ethic. “People have seen the Sami show,” he said, “but few have seen the rehearsals, Sami worked harder than any athlete I’ve ever known.” Hicks said that she runs five or six miles six days a week, often with Edis Dizdarevic, who runs on the boys teams. “We just run,” she remarked. “We never plan a route. We just run.” She said that at Stetson she will confine her running to cross country. “I get nervous running on the track where everyone can see you all the time,” she explained. “I like to run off into the woods.” Scott Durgin, her stepfather, said that Hicks “acts like running is a chore, but she really, really enjoys it. She likes just running against herself.” “He’s right,” Hicks admitted. “When I’m running, I just love it.”
sion,” Odierno said. In remarks to reporters after the meeting, Obama also spoke about how sexual assault undermines the trust that men and women in uniform need to work as a team. He said he wants the military and others to explore every good idea to fix the problem, saying “I want to leave no stone unturned.” Obama said see MILITARY page 15

Three games, three more shutout wins for GHS softball The Gilford High School softball team increased its record to 13-1 after three games played this week. On May 13, Gilford saw its fifth shutout of the season and beat neighboring Belmont 9-0. Sydney Strout was the winning pitcher striking out 14 , giving up one hit and walking none. Gilford was two players away from a perfect game. In the top of the first inning Belmont had a runner get on base with an infield error, but she was immediately picked off first base by catcher Paige Laliberte. Belmont’s only other player to reach base came in the top of the second inning when Makayla Donovan hit a ball up the middle. Strout and the Gilford defense retired the next 16 batters for the victory. Gilford earned another 9-0 victory the next day, against opponents from Prospect Mountain. Strout and the Gilford defense were only one out away from a no-hitter. Prospect Mountain’s second baseman (Meyer) hit a ball up the middle in the bottom of the seventh with two outs to break up Strout’s no hitter. It was a gutsy performance by Strout who in the top of the secenth inning rolled her ankle after running safely through first base. Said coach Joan Forge, “Sydney is a very determined athlete and wanted to finish pitching the game despite having to be taped”. Sarah Lachapelle, Gilford’s back up pitcher was ready for relief, but Strout insisted on finishing the game. The Gilford defense was especially strong in the seventh inning behind their pitcher. The leadoff batter for Prospect Mountain laid down a bunt which is normally played by Strout, but Laliberte came flying out of the catcher’s box to take the ball and gun it to first for the out. The second batter ripped a shot that looked like it was heading for the hole between third and shortstop, but third baseman Lisa Osborne knocked it down and threw for the second out. The third out came with a ball hit to shallow left field and left fielder Mikaela Mattice made a running dive to secure Gilford’s sixth shutout. Strout finished with 11 strikeouts, gave up 1 hit and 2 walks. Gilford played three games in the same number of days and outscored opponents 21-0. May 15 saw Gilford battle Farmington for the second place spot in Division III. Both Gilford and Farmington had only one loss on their record and were tied behind undefeated White Mountain.

Young guns: freshmen featured on D-III leading LHS By AdAm drApcho THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — With a record of 12 wins, one loss, the Laconia High School varsity baseball team is in the driver’s seat of Division III. If the team can keep its collective foot on the gas pedal for the next three games, including the final home game this evening, the Sachems will cross the regular season’s finish line with the division’s best record and in great position for a post-season run. Coach Jon Myers, now in his third year with the team, said his players have the potential to make the 2013 season a highlight of his young coaching career.

The Gilford High School tennis team stands at 11 wins, 2 losses after splitting a pair of matches this week. Gilford took a 6-3 victory at home against Laconia on May 13. Scoring for Gilford in singles matches, Cheralynn Corsack beat Susan Ross 8-2, Charleyene Panner beat Rebecca Mitchell 8-0, Lindsey Corsack beat Rebecca Dragon 8-0 and Emily Hanf earned an 8-6 win over Katherine Mitchell. Earning points for Laconia, Mikayla Bordeau beat Abby Lines and Kailey Nute beat Kayla Vieten, both by the score of 8 to 4. In doubles play, Gilford’s Cheralynn Corsack/Panner took an 8-1 win over Rebecca Mitchell/Dragon, and Lindsey Corsack/Hanf won a tiebreaker against Bordeau/Nute. Laconia won the third doubles match, with the Katherine Mitchell/Taylor Sullivan team beating Sisi Remick/Emily Curtis by the score of 8 to 4. The Golden Eagles didn’t fare as well against the defending champions from Profile on May 14. The only point Gilford scored was due to the top doubles team of Cheralynn Corsack/Panner, which beat Profile’s Cher Christnacht/Rachel Johnson 8-4.
second half. The Belmont defense remained strong and the offense rolled along. At the final whistle, Belmont had a convincing 9-1 victory. Belmont earned another win the next day over the Laconia junior varsity squad at Robbie Mills Field. Belmont scored three and a half minutes into the contest and added two more before Laconia found the back of the net about midway through the half. Belmont’s defense played another strong game holding the Lady Sachems to only two shots on goal in the half. Belmont held a 7-2 lead at the break. Laconia struck first in the second half but before they could put together a comeback the Lady Red Raiders scored to go up by five again. The teams traded a few more goals and at the end of the game Belmont had a 10-4 win. In their third game in three days, Belmont built on its momentum by earning a 13-0 win over Sant Bani on Wednesday, May 15. The girls travel to New Hampton for a 4 p.m. game on Saturday.
After three wins this week, the Belmont High School girls’ lacrosse team improved its record to 9-1-1. Using a stalwart defense and strong offensive attack, Belmont defeated John Stark 9-1 in Weare on May 13. Just 5 minutes and 16 seconds into the game Belmont scored to take the lead. Thirty five seconds later the team scored again providing all the offense the girls would need for the victory. Belmont’s offense controlled the pace of the game throughout the half and the defense was able to hold the home team to a single goal. Belmont had a commanding
SOFTBALL from preceding page came to Gilford early in the season which was a 2-1 victory in 9 innings. Gilford won the rematch with a 3-0 victory. Gilford scored one run in the second inning when Laliberte led off and reached on an error. She advanced to second on a Lachapelle sacrifice bunt and scored on a Houston single to make the score 1-0. Gilford manufactured another run in the third when Strout singled and courtesy runner for Strout, Kristina Hayden, scored on a Osborne fielder’s choice to make the score 2-0. Gilford scored one more insurance run in the fourth inning when freshman Lachapelle hit her first homerun of the season. That was all the scoring Gilford needed to secure the win and second place in the standings. Sydney Strout (2/3 at bat) was the winning pitcher striking out the first eight batters she faced and finishing with 14 strikeouts in total.
BASEBALL from preceding page safe. For the final game of the season, on May 22, Laconia will travel to Berlin, a 6-7 team the Sachems haven’t seen yet this season. Laconia travels to Winnisquam, which has won nine games so far, for the penultimate game of the regular season. If those games weren’t worrying enough for Myers, his team will host Prospect Mountain tonight for his team’s Senior Night. Laconia beat Prospect Mountain on April 19, but just barely. The game concluded with a 7-6 decision that took ten innings to reach. He expects the Timberwolves will remember that loss when they come to Robbie Mills Field tonight. The game is scheduled to start at 4 p.m.
Laconia’s most recent game was Wednesday at Belmont, where Myers and his team came away with a 13-6 win. Despite the outcome, he was less than thrilled with his team’s performance. “It was a weird game,” he said. Afternoon rain caused for sloppy conditions and similar play. Laconia jumped out to a 13 run lead after two innings, but fundamental errors in the field allowed Belmont to make the game competitive. If his team is to reach the same height Laconia saw in 1999, Myers said his team will have to stay sharp in every condition and situation. “I think if we play the way we’ve been playing, things look pretty good,” he said. “We have to play well, stay focused on every pitch.”

Bruins beat Rangers in OT, 3-2 BOSTON (AP) — Brad Marchand scored with 4:20 left in the first overtime and the Boston Bruins beat the New York Rangers 3-2 in the first playoff game in 40 years between the Original Six teams. Marchand, Boston’s top goal scorer in the regular season, got his first of the postseason on a pass from Patrice Bergeron. Marchand had carried the puck up the right side, passed it to Bergeron and kept going toward the net. Bergeron passed across the slot and Marchand tipped it past goalie Henrik Lundqvist from the left side of the crease. The Bruins carried the play throughout overtime. They applied constant pressure, but couldn’t score during a power play when Derek Dorsett was
penalized for interference at 2:20 of overtime. Boston nearly won in regulation, but Johnny Boychuk’s shot from the right point clanged off the left post with one-tenth of a second remaining. Then he hit the left post at the other end of the ice at 6:34 of overtime. Zdeno Chara gave Boston a 1-0 lead at 12:23 of the second before Ryan McDonagh tied it with 1.3 seconds left in the period. Derek Stepan put the Rangers ahead 2-1 just 14 seconds into the third period, and Torey Krug tied it on a power play with his first NHL goal in four career games. Game 2 of the best-of-seven Eastern Conference semifinals is set for Sunday night in Boston.
Middlebrooks’ 3-run double keys Red Sox win ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Will Middlebrooks had a three-run double off closer Fernando Rodney with two outs in the ninth inning that lifted the Boston Red Sox past the Tampa Bay Rays 4-3 on Thursday night. Middlebrooks lined a shot to left on a 1-2 pitch from Rodney (1-2) with the base loaded, giving the Red Sox the lead. Rodney, who blew just two saves last year, is 7 for 10 in save opportunities this year. After walking Dustin Pedroia and David Ortiz, Rodney struck out Mike
Napoli before loading the bases with a walk to Daniel Nava. Stephen Drew struck out, but Middlebrooks then came up with his bases-clearing hit. Junichi Tazawa (3-2) pitched two scoreless innings for the win. He retired James Loney on a grounder with two on and two outs in the ninth. Felix Doubront gave up two runs, three hits, six walks and had seven strikeouts over five-plus innings for the Red Sox, who are 6-9 in May. He threw 104 pitches, including 54 strikes.
MILITARY from page 12 consult with Congress as well as other militaries around the world. Allegations of sexual assault in the military have triggered outrage from local commanders to Capitol Hill and the Oval Office. Yet there seem to be few clear solutions beyond improved training and possible adjustments in how the military prosecutes such crimes. Changing the culture of a male-dominated, change-resistant military that for years has tolerated sexism and sexist behavior is proving
to be a challenging task. “We’re losing the confidence of the women who serve that we can solve this problem,” Dempsey said Wednesday. “That’s a crisis,” Dempsey said in remarks during a flight from Europe to Washington that were reported by the American Forces Press Service, which is the Pentagon’s internal news agency. Dempsey suggested that a deepening of the sexual assault problem may be linked to the strains of war.

MEREDITH — Got Lunch! Inter-lake’s will get underway on June 24. Its mission is to provide a nutritious lunch for the students of the Inter-Lakes school system that find themselves in need during the summer recess. Got Lunch is a volunteer, collaborative effort of individuals, faith and civic based organizations, local businesses and town and school officials. Although the target is the population that qualifies for free or reduced lunch prices during the school year, this is not a requirement for participation and the program does not require proof of financial need. Each week, beginning on Monday June 24 groceries will be delivered for the full nine weeks that school is
not in session to the homes of those taking part. Recently, the Inter-Lakes school system notified all of the families within the district of this opportunity. Applications are available in all of the school facilities and at the Community Center in Meredith. Those who have questions or need further information can contact: Christine Hodecker-George, CoChair Got Lunch! Inter-Lakes at gallery51@myfairpoint.net /279-3123 or Carla Horne, Co-Chair Got Lunch! InterLakes at chorne@metrocast.net /387-1066. All inquiries and applications will remain confidential.

Special weekend offerings highlight early season at Castle in the Clouds MOULTONBOROUGH — During the week-ends only season at Castle in the Clouds visitors will have a special treat--an exhibit and sale of Winslow Homer’s Wood Engravings, the first of three curated shows that will occupy the Carriage House Gallery this season. Winslow Homer achieved fame and fortune with his New England seaside paintings, but he started his artistic career in Boston working as a lithographer and by producing wood engravings for popular magazines of the day; the exhibit is a rare look at this formative phase of Homer’s work. A free wine and cheese reception for this exhibit of Homer’s early works produced for popular periodicals of the day, is open to the public on Sunday, May 19, 5:30-7:30 p.m. The original prints on display, including Civil War sketches and scenes from everyday life in the late 1890s, are also for sale; 100% of the proceeds benefit the Castle Restoration Fund. The exhibit, sponsored by Christopher P.
from preceding page will share his wisdom and experience with business owners and managers at the Lincoln-Woodstock Chamber of Commerce. As the Director of the Small Business Institute at Plymouth State University, Professor Zamzow has worked with area businesses for more than a decade helping them prioritize and plan for results. Craig Zamzow has more than 30 years of experience in high-tech sales and marketing, including positions as VP of Marketing, Director of Marketing, and Sales Training Manager. He is an independent consultant and founded the Productivity Institute. Due to retire next month, Zamzow has been the director of Plymouth State University’s award winning Small Business Institute for more than a decade.

makes you feel more adventurous. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You can forget the facts of a story or lose the unimportant details of an experience, but you won’t forget the emotion of it. Knowing this, you’ll strive to put a good feeling into today’s interactions. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). On most days, you are open to collaboration and the free exchange of ideas. But you’ve put so much time into a certain project that it wouldn’t make sense to compromise your vision at this point. Own it. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ll gravitate toward those who are getting the results you would like to achieve. It is always easier for you to behave in a disciplined manner when you are with those who are similarly driven. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (May 17). You’ll be near your favorite people this year, and they inspire you to be your best. You have a goal in June. You’ll reduce the unknown factors in your life and find a path that’s highly likely (if not guaranteed) to get you from point A to point B. August sees you celebrating a personal victory. September pays you for your talent. Virgo and Scorpio people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 11, 4, 33, 39 and 4.
TUNDRA
HOROSCOPE ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’ll be getting to know someone. The indirect questions and broad topics you pose will not only be fun fodder for conversation, but you’ll also get answers that are more revealing than those you’d get by asking a personal question. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Total ease brings zero satisfaction. So if you’re slightly uncomfortable with today’s work process, it’s an excellent omen that things will play out in a satisfying way. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Open yourself up, invent some nonsense, and share it. Your creativity is flowing. You can make people laugh, think and generally feel good about being in the human family. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll get and keep people’s attention. It might not matter to you now, but there is real power here if you know what to do with it. What do you want them to do, besides like you? LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’re a heartcentered person, and this affects everything you do. Coming from your heart, it’s difficult not to offer help or try to make things better or fall in love a little bit with everyone you meet. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). In certain arenas, the ability to make people laugh can be an uncommon talent. People around you will appreciate how you don’t take yourself too seriously. Social norms are more elastic than most people think. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll be a catalyst -- ready to take risks, be playful, make people uncomfortable and inspire them to do what they normally wouldn’t. It’s all for the sake of creating something bigger than what any individual would accomplish alone. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Even if you like how everything is going now, you’re still willing to see how much more might be accomplished. Innovation is born of a willingness to deconstruct and reconstruct, shake things up and turn ideas on their ears. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Organized and practical, you’ll prevent problems by thinking ahead and preparing for all kinds of possible scenarios. Knowing you’ve done all you can to ensure your security and safety

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Friday, May 17, 2013— Page 23
––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Friday, May 17, the 137th day of 2013. There are 228 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On May 17, 1973, a special committee convened by the U.S. Senate began its televised hearings into the Watergate scandal. On this date: In 1510, Early Renaissance painter Sandro Botticelli died in Florence, Italy; he was probably in his mid 60s. In 1792, the New York Stock Exchange had its origins as a group of brokers met under a tree on Wall Street. In 1849, fire erupted in St. Louis, Mo., resulting in the loss of three lives, more than 400 buildings and some two dozen steamships. In 1912, the Socialist Party of America nominated Eugene V. Debs for president at its convention in Indianapolis. In 1933, U.S. News & World Report had its beginnings as David Lawrence began publishing a weekly newspaper called United States News. In 1938, Congress passed the Second Vinson Act, providing for a strengthened U.S. Navy. The radio quiz show “Information, Please!” made its debut on the NBC Blue Network. In 1946, President Harry S. Truman seized control of the nation’s railroads, delaying a threatened strike by engineers and trainmen. In 1954, the U.S. Supreme Court, in Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, unanimously struck down racially segregated public schools. In 1961, Cuban leader Fidel Castro offered to release prisoners captured in the Bay of Pigs invasion in exchange for 500 bulldozers. (The prisoners were eventually freed in exchange for medical supplies.) In 1971, “Godspell,” a contemporary musical inspired by the Gospel According to St. Matthew, opened off-Broadway at the Cherry Lane Theatre. In 1980, rioting that claimed 18 lives erupted in Miami’s Liberty City after an all-white jury in Tampa acquitted four former Miami police officers of fatally beating black insurance executive Arthur McDuffie. In 1987, 37 American sailors were killed when an Iraqi warplane attacked the U.S. Navy frigate Stark in the Persian Gulf. (Iraq apologized for the attack, calling it a mistake, and paid more than $27 million in compensation.) Ten years ago: A top Vatican official, Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re, acknowledged what many observers had long suspected — that Pope John Paul II was suffering from Parkinson’s disease. Funny Cide ran away from the field in the Preakness, two weeks after winning the Kentucky Derby. (However, Funny Cide came up short at the Belmont Stakes, finishing third.) Five years ago: Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., was flown to a Boston hospital after suffering a seizure at his Cape Cod home (he was later diagnosed with a cancerous brain tumor). One year ago: Washington’s envoy to Israel, Dan Shapiro, told the Israel Bar Association the U.S. had plans in place to attack Iran if necessary to prevent it from developing nuclear weapons. Donna Summer, 63, the “Queen of Disco,” died in Naples, Fla. Frank Edward “Ed” Ray, the California school bus driver hailed as a hero for helping 26 students escape after three kidnappers buried them underground in 1976, died at age 91.

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Friday, May 17, 2013— Page 25
ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Annie: The principal of the school where I teach has some big tattoos on her neck. She says they are Chinese symbols for “good fortune.” I think they look trashy. I don’t mind tattoos, but I don’t think large markings on one’s hands and neck are appropriate for school. They don’t convey authority, and I have a hard time taking orders from her. The last time she entered my classroom, she pointed to a poster listing class rules and said she didn’t like that it had torn edges. I gently said, “I’m sorry, but I’ve been preoccupied with my students’ reading skills, math and grammar, so the torn edges will have to wait a bit.” She left the classroom looking uncomfortable. The school security guards also have tattoos and not simply the names of their girlfriends or boyfriends. They picture playing cards, dice and other motifs that I consider more appropriate for a biker bar. During the last parent-teacher conference, one parent exclaimed, “Did you recruit the security guards from the county jail?” Why is it acceptable for teachers, court officers and other professionals to tattoo their hands and necks when it makes them look like street thugs? How do they expect kids to listen to them when they look like that? I warn my older pupils that visible tattoos may bar them from certain jobs. Most of them take my advice. The ones who don’t are harder to place for summer internships. -- N.Y. Dear N.Y.: The proliferation of tattoos on the faces, hands and necks of professional sports players and TV reality stars makes this type of artwork seem more mainstream and acceptable. But just as there are dress codes for businesses, there are also dress codes for schools. If the students are not permitted to show such visible tattoos, neither should the administration and security personnel, who presumably set the exam-
ple. If you believe this undermines the principal’s authority, you can register a complaint with the school board. Dear Annie: I am 12 years old and carpool to a gymnastics class with “Alice,” who is two years older. For a long time, we were decent friends and had good times. But last year, Alice got a phone and stopped talking to me. She is always texting. I have tried so hard to get Alice to talk to me. I have brought games and joke books, but, Annie, it’s been going on for so long, I’m not sure I want to be friends anymore. The main problem is, when we arrive at gymnastics, none of the other girls talk to me, only Alice. So now I don’t have anyone. I don’t know why Alice treats me this way. Is she angry or jealous? Should I give her a second chance? Our moms our friends, and we’ll probably be carpooling for a long time. -Hurt and Wondering Dear Hurt: We don’t think Alice is angry, jealous or anything else. We think she is 14 years old and has a new phone. Like many kids, she wants to text more than she wants to talk. Also, now that she is a teenager, she may be less inclined to be so tight with a 12-year-old, even if she likes you. You can try to engage her by asking her to show you the features on her phone, but really, your best bet is to work on forming friendships with the other girls in gymnastics. Please try. Dear Annie: The letter from “Tired of ‘Go See a Counselor’” displayed ignorance. You give excellent advice. “Go See” must not understand that some problems are too complicated to explain in a couple of paragraphs. A counselor may spend several sessions with someone to determine the best advice. It’s like a family doctor who advises a patient with chest pains to see a cardiologist. -- Denham Springs, La.

Exhibition of secretly shot Lake Winnipesaukee Watershed Association plans photos upsets residents of ‘Meet and Greet’ sessions in Laconia, Wolfeboro NY luxury apartments LACONIA — The Lake Winnipesaukee Waterits organizational capacity to provide information NEW YORK (AP) — Residents of a New York luxury apartment building are livid over an exhibition of photos secretly snapped through their apartment windows. Photographer Arne Svenson pointed his camera at the oversized windows of the Tribeca (try-BEHK’uh) building from his second-floor apartment across the street. The images show residents doing mundane things like napping, cleaning and putting children to bed. The photos don’t reveal their faces. They’re on sale for up to $7,500 at the Julie Saul Gallery in Chelsea. The New York Post (http://bit.ly/17xPup4 ) says some of the residents are considering legal action. One said she recognized her daughter’s bedroom. Svenson says his neighbors were performing “on a stage of their own creation with the curtain raised.”
