Deadline passes for sale of Laconia State School property BY MICHAEL KITCH THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
CONCORD — As the deadline set by the Legislature for selling the former Laconia State School site on North Main Street passed yesterday without so much as an offer, City Councilor Matt Lahey (Ward 2) said that he will likely ask the council to resubmit its $2.16-million bid for the property.
In the 2011-12 budget, the Legislature directed the Department of Administrative Services (DAS) to sell the property to the city for $10-million and, failing that, to Belknap County for its fair market value. If neither the city nor the county purchased the property, DAS was instructed to hire an agent to market, promote and negotiate the sale of the property on the open market by May 1, 2013 in return for six-percent of
the selling price. In the meantime, the state would be responsible for “minimal maintenance” at the site. When the state appraised the property for $2.16-million, the city submitted its matching bid, which DAS shelved. After the county passed on the offer and DAS contracted with Jones Lang LaSalle Americas, Inc. of New York to sell the property the city see DEADLINE page 12

Turkmen leader’s fall from horse hidden from nation
MOSCOW (AP) — Seeing the president slam face-first into the ground after falling from a speeding horse would be a shock to any nation. In authoritarian Turkmenistan, many residents didn’t even get the chance. President Gurbanguli Berdymukhamedov apparently wasn’t seriously injured Sunday when his horse stumbled and he pitched into the dirt track at the hippodrome on the outskirts of the capital, Ashgabat. But the fall was certainly a wound to the pride of the 55-year-old Central Asian leader, whose all-powerful personality cult portrays him as effortlessly competent. Thousands of people were in the stands for the race that celebrated Turkmenistan’s renowned desert racehorse breed, the Akhal-Teke. But state television’s video of the race cut off just before the fall and the extensive written reports on the event didn’t mention the plunge. see FALL page 8

Accused trio recounts ominous text exchange with Tsarnaev Dias Kadyrbayev was driving back to his apartment when he got a call from a college buddy. A clearly anxious Robel Phillipos told him authorities had released photos of the alleged Boston Marathon bombers — and one of them looked very familiar. When he got home, Kadrybayev turned on the television to see a shaggy-haired Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, his friend, classmate and, by then, one of the most wanted men in the world. That call set in motion a series of events that on Wednesday turned three college pals into key figures in one of the largest terrorist investigations ever on U.S. soil. According to an FBI affidavit based on interviews with all three men, this is how it played out. Kadyrbayev first met Tsarnaev in 2011,
when they both started at the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth, south of Boston, near the base of Cape Cod. He told authorities he became “better friends” with the ethnic Chechen in spring 2012, and that he was a frequent visitor to the rundown Tsarnaev home in Cambridge. Kadyrbayev and fellow Kazakh, Azamat Tazhayakov, hung out together on and off campus with Tsarnaev. The three 19-yearolds often spoke Russian among themselves. Kadyrbayev, an engineering major, was headed back to the New Bedford apartment that he and Tazhayakov shared when Phillipos called. It was April 18, three days since the twin bombings that killed three and wounded more than 260. When he saw the images of Tsarnaev and his older brother, Tamerlan, Kadyrbayev
texted his friend and told him that he looked a lot like the guy on the television. “lol” Dzhokhar replied, according to the FBI affidavit. Then Tsarnaev’s messages took on a more ominous tone. “you better not text me,” read one. “come to my room and take whatever you want,” read another. A month earlier, during a meal, Dzhokhar had apparently felt the need to tell his Russian-speaking chums that he’d learned how to make a bomb. Even so, Kadyrbayev told authorities he thought his friend’s texts were a joke. The Kazhaks and Phillipos, who’d attended Cambridge Rindge and Latin High School with “Jahar,” as Dzhokhar was known, agreed to meet at Pine Dale see TEXTS page 6
Boy accidentally shoots 2 Vt. woman reveals ‘tremendous year-old sister with rifle gift’ of face transplant BURKESVILLE, Ky. (AP) — In southern Kentucky, where some children get their first guns even before they start first grade, Stephanie Sparks was cleaning the kitchen as her 5-year-old son played with the small rifle he was given last year. Then, as she stepped onto the front porch, “she heard the gun go off,” a coroner said.
In a horrific accident Tuesday that shocked a rural area far removed from the national debate over gun control, her son, Kristian, had fatally shot his 2-year-old sister, Caroline, in the chest, authorities said. Kristian’s rifle was kept in a corner of the mobile home, and the family didn’t realize a see RIFLE page 12

surgery at Boston’s Brigham and Women’s Hospital in February and spoke publicly for the first time at a news conference at the hospital Wednesday. “I’m now in a better place, mentally and emotionally, than I ever could have imagined six years ago,” said Tarleton, a former transplant nurse. “I want see FACE page 10

Casino would hurt charitable fund raising, witnesses tell N.H. House panel CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — More than 300 charities in New Hampshire that raise money through poker and table games may find themselves scrambling for customers if the state legalizes a casino, a House panel studying the proposal heard Wednesday.
Witnesses told a special casino subcommittee that some businesses that operate the games for charities could close if a casino cuts into their bottom line. They said that would force the charities to either look for other operators to squeeze them into packed schedules

or to run the casino operations themselves. Paul Kelley of the Racing and Charitable Gaming Commission said the Senate bill to legalize a casino guarantees charities that raised money through the games of chance in 2012 the same amount in future years if they continue to use the same fundraising method. If a New Hampshire casino causes some operators to go out of business, the charities could run a oneday event to be protected under the bill’s provision, he said. But he acknowledged the charities would have to provide the gambling equipment, a location for the games and staff to run them. The income-protection provision only applies to charities that raised money through games of chance in 2012 and continue to do so. The state has about 10 locations for charities to raise money through games of chance. State law limits the charities to 10 days a year, which in turn limits the number of charities that can participate in the fundraising activity at each location. Charities raised $4.7 million under the restrictions last year, Kelley said. Smaller locations may have a few dozen people gambling on a week day, but larger venue’s such as Rockingham Park race track may have well over 1,000 gamblers on a weekend day, he said. “Candidly, in my mind, the Legislature legalized casinos in 2005 in the form of charities,” Kelley said. He estimated his agency currently is regulating 250 table games. “We have casino gambling in New Hampshire now,” he said. Edward Callahan, president of Rockingham Venture Inc., which owns and operates Rockingham Park race track in Salem, said the legislative action in 2005 allowed professionals to run “Monte Carlo” nights beginning in 2006. He said Rockingham Gaming has run games of chance at Rockingham since 2009 and in Seabrook since 2010.

Planning Commission report finds development has slowed in Lakes Region By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
MEREDITH — The Lakes Region Planning Commission has reported that the pace of property development slowed in 2011, based on the number of building permits issued and subdivision plans approved by the 30 municipalities in Belknap, Carroll, Merrimack and Grafton counties it represents. However, save for the eleven municipalities of Belknap County, home sales and median prices rose elsewhere in the Lakes Region in 2012. In the Lakes Region, housing permits slipped 9.3-percent, from 216 in 2010 to 196 in 2011, less than half the more than 500 permits issued during the recession of the early 1990s and a fraction of the nearly 1,200 permits issued between 2002 and 2005 when the numbers peaked before the economy slumped. Single-family family homes represented 90-percent, multi-family dwellings seven-percent and manufactured homes three-percent of the residential permits issued in 2011. In Belknap County, which accounts for half the housing units in the region, 100 residential permit were issued in 2011, compared to the annual average of 561 permits between 2000 and 2006. In the eight towns in Carroll County (Effingham, Freedom, Moultonborough, Ossipee, Sandwich, Tamworth, Tuftonboro and Wolfeboro) the 63 residential permits issued in 2011 were a fifth of the annual average of 300 issued from 2000 to 2006. The six municipaliTEXTS from page 2 Hall, their friend’s dorm. Phillipos, the 19-year-old son of a single mother, said he wanted to see for himself whether the TV reports were true. Tsarnaev’s roommate let them in, saying they’d missed him by a couple of hours. According to Kadyrbayev, the trio decided to watch a movie (he didn’t specify which one). At some point, they noticed a backpack. Inside, they discovered more than a half-dozen fireworks, each about 8 inches long, according to the affidavit. The black powder had been scooped out. Kadyrbayev said he knew instantly that his friend was indeed involved in the bombings. But instead of calling authorities, he told investigators he began thinking of ways to get rid of the evidence. Just in case the roommate thought he was “stealing or behaving suspiciously” by grabbing the backpack alone, Kadyrbayev decided to take Tsarnaev’s laptop as well. The three returned to the Kazhaks’ apartment and watched news reports of the intensifying manhunt. They discussed what to do with Tsarnaev’s things. As the situation’s gravity began to sink in, Phillipos — whose own text to Tsarnaev went unanswered — said everyone “started to freak out,” according to authorities. The other two men began speaking to each other in Russian. Around 11 p.m., according to Phillipos, Kadrybayev broached the topic of ditching the stuff. Phillipos says he replied, “Do what you have to do,” then managed to drift off to sleep. When he awoke from his two-hour nap, the backpack and computer were gone. By then, 26-year-old Tamerlan Tsarnaev was dead, cut down in a hail of police gunfire, then run over by his fleeing brother. Later that night, the three friends’ college buddy, bleeding from several gunshot wounds, surrendered from his hiding place under a tarp covering a boat in the backyard of a home in Watertown. On April 26, authorities found the backpack in a New Bedford landfill. According to the affidavit, it contained the emptied fireworks, a jar of Vaseline and a UMassDartmouth homework assignment sheet from a class in which Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is currently enrolled.
ties in Grafton County issued 31 residential permits and the five in Merrimack County, including the city of Franklin, only nine. Together Laconia with 46 and Moultonborough with 29 accounted for 37-percent of all the residential permits issued in the region. With 20 of the 30 municipalities reporting data for commercial and industrial permitting, the commission found that 70 new commercial buildings, with 112,622 square feet of space, were permitted in 2011. Accounting for demolitions, conversions and expired permits, the net gain was 58 commercial buildings — 30 of them in Moultonborough — with a total of 105,866 square feet of space. Franklin was the lone municipality in the region to permit an industrial building. Likewise, only two-thirds of the municipalities reported approvals for residential subdivisions. In 2011, 1,130 acres were subdivided, about half the 2,362 acres reported in 2010 and little more than a

r
third the annual average of 3,195 acres subdivided from 2000 to 2010. The report includes data on home sales and median prices through 2012 from the New Hampshire Realtors Association. Belknap County posted the lowest volume of sales, just 45 units,compared to 75 in 2011, 52 in 2010 and 58 in 2009. The median sales price also fell from $205,000 in 2011 to $182,000 in 2012. Sales rose slightly in the parts of Carroll and Merrimack counties within the Lakes Region and dropped by a single unit in the Grafton County towns. While median sales prices rose elsewhere in the Lakes Region, in Belknap County it dropped from $205,000 to $182,000. Noting that the median age of 41.7 in New Hampshire ranks it as the third oldest state in the country, the report suggests that the aging population may dampen demand for housing.

Syria: their war, not ours “The worst mistake of my presidency,” said Ronald Reagan of his decision to put Marines into the middle of Lebanon’s civil war, where 241 died in a suicide bombing of their barracks. And if Barack Obama plunges into Syria’s civil war, it could consume his presidency, even as Iraq consumed the presidency of George W. Bush. Why would Obama even consider this? Because he blundered badly. Foolishly, he put his credibility on the line by warning that any Syrian use of chemical weapons would cross a “red line” and be a “game changer” with “enormous consequences.” Not only was this ultimatum unwise, Obama had no authority to issue it. If Syria does not threaten or attack us, Obama would need congressional authorization before he could constitutionally engage in acts of war against Syria. When did he ever receive such authorization? Moreover, there is no proof Syrian President Bashar Assad ever ordered the use of chemical weapons. U.S. intelligence agencies maintain that small amounts of the deadly toxin sarin gas were likely used. But if it did happen, we do not know who ordered it. Syrians officials deny that they ever used chemicals. And before we dismiss Damascus’ denials, recall that an innocent man in Tupelo, Miss., was lately charged with mailing deadly ricin to Sen. Roger Wicker and President Obama. This weekend, we learned he may have been framed. It is well within the capacity of Assad’s enemies to use or fake the use of poison gas to suck us into fighting their war. Even if elements of Assad’s army did use sarin, we ought not plunge in. And, fortunately, that seems to be Obama’s thinking. Why stay out? Because it is not our war. There is no vital U.S. interest in who rules Syria. Hafez Assad and Bashar have ruled Syria for 40 years. How has that ever threatened us? Moreover, U.S. intervention would signal to Assad that the end is near, making his use of every weapon in his arsenal, including chemical weapons, more — not less — likely. U.S. intervention would also make us de facto allies of Assad’s principal enemies, the Muslim Brotherhood and al-Nusra Front, Syria’s al-Qaida. As The New York Times reported Sunday, “Nowhere in rebel-controlled Syria is there a secular fighting force to speak of.” Do we really wish to expend American blood and treasure to bring about a victory of Islamists and jihadists in Syria? If Assad’s chemical weapons threaten any nation, it is Israel. But Israel knows where they are stored and has an air force superior to our own in the Med. Israeli troops on the Golan are as close to Damascus
as Dulles Airport is to Washington, D.C. Yet Israel has not attacked Syria’s chemical weapons. Why not? Israel is well aware that Syria’s air defense system is, as The Wall Street Journal reported yesterday, “one of the most advanced and concentrated barriers on the planet.” And if Israel does not feel sufficiently threatened by Syria’s chemical weapons to go after them, why should we, 4,000 miles away? Then there is Turkey, with three times Syria’s population, NATO’s second-largest army and a 600-mile border. Why is ridding the Middle East of Assad our assignment and not Ankara’s? Surely the heirs of the Ottomans have a larger stake here. And if we get into this war, how do we get out? For the war is metastasizing. Hezbollah is sending in fighters to help the Alawite Shia. Other Lebanese are assisting the Sunni rebels. The war could spread into Iraq, where the latest clashes between Sunni and Shia are pulling the country apart. Young Muslims are coming in from Europe. Iran and Russia are aiding Damascus. Qatar and Saudi Arabia are aiding the Islamists. The United States, Jordan and Turkey are aiding the secularists. Syria could come apart, and a sectarian and ethnic war of all against all erupt across the region. Do we really want the U.S. military in the middle of this? Because his “red line” appears to have been crossed, Obama is being told he must attack Syria to maintain his credibility with Iran and North Korea. Nonsense. To attack Syria would compound Obama’s folly in drawing the red line. Better to have egg on Obama’s face than for America to be dragged into another unnecessary war. Obama would not be alone in having his bluff called. George Bush proclaimed that no “axis of evil” nation would be allowed to acquire the “world’s worst weapons.” North Korea now has those weapons. Congressional war hawks, led by Sens. John McCain and Lindsey Graham, are cawing for air strikes and no-fly zones, which would mean dead and captured Americans and many more dead Syrians. Time for Congress to either authorize Obama to lead us into a new Middle East war, or direct him, in the absence of an attack upon us, to keep America out of what is Syria’s civil war. Before we slide into another war, let the country be consulted first.

LETTERS Change isn’t all that hard to cope with; let’s recycle more To the editor, I’ve always been a frugal person; partly out of necessity, mostly out of inclination. I’ve never had a dishwasher or microwave oven. We ‘ve had a computer for several years, but not as long as most people. We drive older cars, but maintain them well. I don’t even understand the concept of digital cameras. And,we’ve recycled for many years because it’s as easy as throwing everything away at once, but less expensive, because you don’t need plastic bags. Now comes the threat of pay-to-throw garbage collection, which has been ongoing for the past three years or so, and a handful of people are trying to convince the majority of Laconians to throw away less real garbage, throw away more recyclables, save money, and do what’s best for the environment, too. You wouldn’t think it should be such a hard sell! And yet, the majority are set in their ways, and don’t seem to realize that unless they immediately change their garbage disposal ways, they will pay the promised $1.75-$2. per bag to throw garbage away. And then it will be too late. I mentioned the first paragraph because yesterday I went to develop some film. Yes, I only ever use the
cheap, one-use cameras!, and was stunned — shocked is too mild a word! — to find the price was now $15 to develop what had until recently cost less than 10 dollars. I asked the clerk why the price had jumped so much, was it to make people buy digital cameras? Yes she replied, truthfully. Well, half an hour later, after she educated me as to the convenience, versatility,and altogether economy of digital cameras — plus the first 100 pictures to be printed for free! — I reluctantly handed in my last camera to be developed, and left the store with a beginners digital camera and memory card. I even look forward to using it, and the pleasure of downloading photos to so easily e-mail them. As I left the store, I asked the clerk what I should do with my old Brownie camera. She was too young to remember that! The analogy is that everyone must move with the times — it’s not so painful. As other letter writers who already know, who are also trying to convince the majority who still don’t recycle, if pay-to-throw comes in, you won’t have a choice. Do it now, move with the times — it isn’t hard to do at all. Diane Lewis Laconia
We had our day: those that live by the sword will die that way To the editor, Since the bombing in Boston I researched the use of bombs in warfare, coming to some starling conclusions. I am not passing judgment as the tragic results at the marathon speak strongly about the use of explosions as a weapon of destruction and death. But, going back 50 years ago, and more recently in the Iraq war, the numbers, some of which are now available, reveal our own use of explosives. I find the numbers to be incredible! One set of facts is available: The 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing flying sorties over Iraq dropped 500,000 tons of bombs. A ton is 2,000 lbs. If they used 1,000 lb. bombs, that would roughly amount to 1,000,000 x 1,000 lb. bombs. It is estimated that 44,000 stories were flown by all units,( most of which
were carrying explosives, in the ensuing years of the Iraq war.. With most of the numbers in, that translates to about 40-lbs. of explosives for every person in Iraq — the population being about 25 million. Going back to the Vietnam war United States military aircraft dropped seven million tons of bombs in our protracted war to defeat North Vietnam. It sounds too incredible to be true, but those are the facts and we have to live with them. Our military might has had its day. Those that live by the sword, will die by the sword, so says the Good Book. Be an advocate for peace. Be strident, strong and full of zeal and passion for peace. If you don’t do it, who will?

LETTERS Americans in gun free zones have become defenseless victims
Ayotte gave slick presentation instead of answering questions
To the editor, On Tuesday, Erica Lafferty, daughter of slain Sandy Hook principal Dawn Hochsprung, attacked Senator Ayotte for not supporting a gun control proposal that everyone agreed would not have prevented the Sandy Hook massacre. There is no credible evidence that this proposal would save ANY life, but it would make it more difficult for law abiding people to protect themselves, and it would make criminals out of otherwise law abiding citizens who don’t harm anyone but who intentionally or by accident ignore the law. There are laws against every use of a gun to unjustifiably harm others, yet liberals and other gun control advocates demand more laws which will just make it more difficult for law abiding citizens to protect themselves, their families, and other innocent people. Let’s imagine that the principal of Sandy Hook and her daughter were conservatives rather than liberals, then Senator Ayotte might have heard the following: “Senator Ayotte, thank you for coming today. My Mother was the principal at Sandy Hook and died trying to protect the children in her charge. The children and adults at Sandy Hook did not need to die. My mother was a trained pistol marksman with a concealed carry permit. She met monthly at the range to practice shooting with the third
To the editor, Several of us had the opportunity to meet and stand with a courageous young woman yesterday — Erica Lafferty, the surviving daughter of Sandy Hook elementary principal Dawn Lafferty Hochsprung. All of us attended Senator Kelly Ayotte’s Town Hall meeting in Tilton yesterday but Erica, above all, had an extremely personal reason to do so, given Senator Ayotte’s recent vote on background checks. Unfortunately, Senator Ayotte was there to deliver her message rather than listen to the citizens in the room. In fact, State Senator Jeb Bradley admitted he had weeded out those on gun control saying “she answered in great depth at the beginning of her town hall (and) talked about her vote on guns ... she addressed it.” While he admitted, we “could have spent 1 1/2 hours talking about guns, and I didn’t think it would be productive,” he essentially decided to take the issue off the public table. Senator Ayotte “talked about her vote on guns” by using her own PowerPoint slide show, not in response to her audience. She came in and left by a side door so she didn’t see the numerous signs, on both sides of the background check issue, seeking to catch her attention at the front door.
grade teacher who was also a concealed carry permit holder and who sadly also died. The school janitor is retired military and an avid hunter. Laws and policies made Sandy Hook a “gun free zone”, but Adam Lanza didn’t care. So, my Mother, five of her staff, and 20 innocent children died because they were defenseless targets in a ‘gun free zone. Thousands of Americans in ‘gun free zones’ have become defenseless victims of people who obviously don’t care about our laws or ‘gun free zone’ signs. If Sandy Hook had not been a ‘gun free zone’, I believe that my mother would have saved all those lives. If she failed, others would have been alerted and perhaps could have saved most lives. My questions to you are: Why isn’t Congress repealing the ‘gun free zones’ law that has made thousands of Americans victims but not saved a single life? Why isn’t Congress discussing laws that keep violent people off our streets? Why doesn’t’ Congress make it easier for law abiding citizens to protect themselves, especially when faced with real immediate threats? Why does Congress spend so much time on gun controls that only make life safer for criminals not for law abiding citizens? Thank you, Senator Ayotte, for your vote to protect law abiding citizens.” Don Ewing Meredith
Liberals watch MSNBC for same reason conservatives watch Fox To the editor, While reading Mr. Wiles backhanded apology to Mr. Polidoro last week, I was struck by his comment that, “Why anyone watches CNN or MSNBC is beyond me.” Doesn’t he realize that liberals watch MSNBC for the same reasons that conservatives watch Fox News — neither is “Fair and Balanced” and they pander to what their viewers want to see and hear. Both networks are guilty of egregious misrepresentations in their news coverage and attempt to monopolize opinion and suppress free thought. There is nothing more important to the maintenance of democracy than a free press. To the degree that access to quality factual information is willfully or unintentionally obstructed, democracy itself is degraded. Not only does a mainstream media now toler-
ate gross misrepresentations of fact but also many, including MSNBC and Fox News, actually legitimize these displays. Unfortunately, their viewers and listeners develop a powerful identification with these outlets and mount ardent, reflexive defenses of them. As honest, fair and truly intellectual debates degrade before the eyes of the global media audience, the quality of American democracy degrades along with it. While we should be reassured that Mr. Wiles will “point out” “revisionist spin” and those who are “politicizing everything”, I’m not sure how much faith I can put in someone whose “anger” and “assumptions” may cloud his judgment. Isn’t he the one that politicized an apology letter? L. J. Siden Gilmanton
Here are services currently being provided by Blue Loon Transit To the editor, It was suggested by one of the passengers of the Blue Loon transit service that I send a letter clarifying services of the Blue Loon. It seems there is some confusion between the services that have been currently suspended and those that are still operating. The services that are still operating are the Dial-a-Ride services in North Conway, Conway, Albany, Madison, Tamworth, Chorcorua, Moultonborough, Sandwich, Freedom, Effingham, Ossipee, Center Harbor, and Wolfeboro. Also offered are two shopping trips a month that go to Rochester and North Conway. These shopping trips are prioritized for mature adults 60 and older and disabled individuals but the general public is wel-
Also operating is the flex route to Laconia that makes three runs a day. Commuters going to work in Laconia can park their cars in the Tramway parking lot in West Ossipee and board the bus. Youth 18 and younger who may be working in the Laconia area for the summer should consider getting a youth pass – $30 for unlimited riding from the day after school ends to the day before the next school year begins. To find out more about the service, operating hours, trips scheduling, fares for anyone under 60 years of age, etc. call 1-866-752-6890.

Senator Bradley opened the event by remarking that Senator Ayotte was fulfilling her promise to hold town meetings throughout the state on a regular basis. What a hollow promise! An hour long meeting with 40 minutes taken up by a slide show leaving 20 minutes for (prescreened) questions does not meet most definitions of open availability by an elected official to his or her constituents. Closing the background checks loophole shouldn’t be a partisan issue; it is a commonsense step toward decreasing the risks of irresponsible gun ownership. Senator Ayotte got a round of applause when she mentioned keeping guns out of the hands of criminals who buy them on the street. Wouldn’t closing the gun show loophole and cracking down on Internet sales work toward drying up the street market for criminals? Senator Ayotte’s slick slide show presentation and avoidance of the “elephant in the room,” as one questioner put it, was a huge disappointment and, in my opinion, a dereliction of her duty to her constituents. Perhaps Senator Ayotte could be reminded that she serves all the people of New Hampshire, not just the ones who voted her into office. Kate Miller Meredith
Did the 18th Amendment stop people from drinking? It did not To the editor, You would think that Sen. Kelly Ayotte had committed a crime against humanity for voting against Pres. Obama’s gun control bill by the way she is being savaged by the left. Obama himself said that these new restrictions would not have prevented the Newtown massacre but I guess he and the Dems expect they would going forward. I have to ask, why? Will more laws and restrictions targeting lawabiding citizens stop the crazies and criminals from getting guns? Did the 18th Amendment stop people from drinking and reduce crime and violence? Has the War on Drugs reduced drug use, lowered crime and violence in America? Knowing the answers to these questions are no, why do the Dems think doing the same things over and over they will get different results this time? Typically this bogus bill is more Dem feel-good, do-nothing legislation attempting to appeal to one of their special interest groups and fool the unwary into thinking they are actually trying to protect the children in public schools. In reality it’s a political move to ensure their re-elections and defeat Republicans. So when will these Dems start really trying to do something that will protect our kids? Last week one letter writer asked the question, “why do law abiding citizens need assault rifles?” The answer
is because there are lots of very bad people out there. An example was the marathon bombing where, when the Islamic terrorists were confronted by the Watertown Police, over 200 rounds were fired by police, trained officers, and still suspect #1 was only killed when his brother ran him over with an SUV and escaped. Knowing this, the anti gun gang still wants to tell citizens that they should be limited to firearms that hold no more then 10 rounds, cannot fire semi-automatically, and do not look a certain way. Yes, this is a worse case example but so what? Who are these gun grabbers, who know nothing about guns, to tell others what they do or don’t need? Another writer from the left said that 90 percent of Americans are in favor of gun controls, insinuating the Obama gun control bill. Not so, most gun owners like myself are in favor of controls but want controls that target criminal and crazies not honest people. Further the 90 percent number cited was from a pole that was taken only in several eastern liberal-leaning states and targeted predominantly Democratic voters. So I doubt if an honest pole was taken by an independent group without asking leading questions you would get those results. Any bets? Steve Earle Hill
I can no longer watch TV wasteland and the censored news To the editor, Thank you for your fine newspaper where “the truth is the light”. I no longer watch the vast wasteland called T.V. and its censored news. As we are a government for and by the people not a political party and what calls itself ‘leaders’. Infringements under any guise on
threaten our well being and freedom. Today we see groups and activists who seek to decide whats best for us. It is not supposed to be this way. Unless we speak up and ‘loud’ we will be slaves and those who would rule masters. Today it’s all about we the people and how long ‘we’ remain ‘free’. Donald C. Poirier

FIELDS from page one wishes that the Republican majority of the delegation had taken time to learn about the progress the commision has made in recent years before making judgments on the budget which the commission had proposed. The delegation and commission are currently locked in a battle over who has line item control over the budget and there has been a marked tone of hostility between commissioners and members of the delegation at public meetings going back to January. ‘’It was getting better for the county. But when I try to point that out I get laughed at by members of the executive committee who say they’ve got the votes so they’re going to do what they want. This isn’t a Republican or a Democrat issue. If the delegation would get smart enough and come in here and ask questions they’d find out what they need to know to make good decisions,’’ said Fields. He repeated his claim that members of the see next page FALL from page 2 All domestic broadcasting in Turkmenistan is state-run; newspapers are either state-run or under heavy government supervision. Media criticism of the president is non-existent and elaborate praise of him is ubiquitous in this nation of 5 million, wedged between the Caspian Sea and Iran, Afghanistan and Uzbekistan. Turkmenistan’s security agencies reportedly went into high gear to try to block video or images of the president’s fall from slipping out to the rest of the world. The opposition-in-exile group Gundogar cited witnesses as saying police were carefully checking the computers, tablets, mobile phones and cameras of departing passengers at Ashgabat’s airport.

Man gets year in prison for making meth in Church Street apartment LACONIA – A local man has been sentenced to one to four years in the New Hampshire State Prison for manufacturing methamphetamine in his Church Street apartment in September of 2012. Richard Holmes, 34, formerly of 108 Church St. Apt. 3 pleaded guilty in Belknap County Superior Court on April 15 to one count of felony manufacturing methamphetamine and one count of attempted falsifying of evidence. For the attempt to falsify physical evidence, he was given a two-to-five year sentence that was suspended pending his good behavior. Holmes was also fined $350 and ordered to complete a substance abuse program. In affidavits obtained at the time of his arrest from the 4th Circuit Court, Laconia Division, police interviewed Bruce Simmons after getting footage of him and Holmes buying pseudoephedrine – the active ingredient in methamphetamine – as well as two
other key ingredients in WalMart. Simmons had been arrested on a federal warrant. Local police checked the pseudoephedrine logs for both men and learned they had bought cold medicine six times at various stores during the first week of August 2012. Simmons said he was only buying the ingredients for Holmes and when police went to Holmes apartment, they learned from his girlfriend that Holmes had just called her and told her to get rid of a box that contained the equipment for making methamphetamine. In the affidavits, detectives said the woman became upset and retrieved the box that he had told her to destroy. She also gave police permission to search the car the two shared. After getting a warrant, police seized the box and searched the rest of the apartment where they found a gas generator and a one-pot meth lab. — Gail Ober
Homeless man, found living near Union Cemetery, sentenced for stolen shotgun LACONIA – The homeless man who police found living in a tent last October pleaded guilty to two counts of receiving stolen property – including a shotgun. In exchange for his guilty plea, Jeffrey Fleck, 31, now of Boscawen, where he is incarcerated at the Merrimack County Jail, was sentenced to 1½ to five years in the New Hampshire State Prison for one count and three to seven years for the count that included the shotgun. He will serve a minimum of 1 1/2 years of the first sentence and all of the second sentence is suspended pending good behavior. Credited with 83 days of pretrial confinement, Fleck will begin serving his state prison sentence after he has finished serving a nine month sentence stemming from his conviction in June of 2011 in the 6th Circuit Court, Franklin Division, for invasion of privacy. There will be no overlap between his current sentence and the one he received yesterday. Fleck came to the attention of the Laconia Police when one of his relatives told police he was living in a tent or lean-to in the woods near the Garfield Street side of the Union Cemetery and that he had a shotgun. Police converged on the tent during
the afternoon of October 31 and when they got to within about 25 feet, Fleck ran from the tent across the cemetery – directly into the arms of four additional police officers. As Fleck was being chased by two officers and was being approached two others he reached into his sweatshirt as if to grab something and was shocked by a Taser by one of the pursuing officers. Police recovered a number of stolen items from the tent, including the Mossberg shotgun that was suspended from the roof of the tent like his relative had described to police, as well as a number of electronic and photographic items. Many of those items have been identified by their owners – including the shotgun and some high-end camera equipment valued at more than $1,500. Fleck, who is tall, red-headed and thin, had nothing to say to Judge James O’Neill yesterday except that he understood the proceedings and was willing to plead guilty. Belknap County Attorney Melissa Guldbrandsen said the victims and the Laconia Police had been notified of the plea arrangement and were on-board with the sentence recommendation. — Gail Ober
FACE from page 2 to share my experience with others, so they may find that strength inside themselves to escape their own pain.” In 2007, the 44-year-old mother of two was attacked by her then-husband, Herbert Rodgers, who believed she was seeing another man. Police say he went to the house looking for that man, then went into a fury directed toward Tarleton, striking her with a bat and pouring lye from a squeeze bottle onto her face. When police arrived, Tarleton was trying to crawl to a shower to wash
away the chemical. It already had distorted her face. In 2009, Rodgers pleaded guilty to maiming Tarleton in exchange for a prison sentence of at least 30 years. “I learned that ... forgiveness doesn’t condone anything he did and it’s not about him — it’s about forgiving him, it’s forgiving myself, it’s allowing myself to move forward and not getting stuck in the tragedy of that night,” said Tarleton, who has undergone 55 surgeries during the past five years.

County Commissioners forced to slow growth of profit-making rehabilitation program By RogeR Amsden FOR THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — County officials are planning to slow the admissions of Medicare patients into a rehabilitative services program at the Belknap County Nursing Home until they know the fate of a proposed supplemental appropriation of $200,000 the County Commissioners have asked the County Convention to approve. A public hearing on the request and a convention meeting to vote on the appropriation which had been scheduled for late Wednesday afternoon was cancelled earlier this week by County Convention Chairman Rep. Colette Worsman (R-Meredith), who claimed that County Administrator Debra Shackett had failed to provide the convention with the information it requested in sufficient time to prepare for the meeting. ‘’Our only control is through admissions. It’s too much of a risk. We’ll have to stop taking any new patients until we have more money’’ Shackett told County Commissioners John Thomas and Steven Nedeau at Wednesday morning’s meeting. adding that $82,000 has already been spent out of the $180,000 budgeted for the program. Last month the commissioners requested the $200,000 supplemental appropriation, which Mat Logue, director of the nursing home, says is projected to generate $400,000 in annual revenue. Logue says that Medicare reimburses occupational, speech and physical therapy as well as pharmaceutical, testing and X-rays at 14-percent above costs. The convention voted to schedule a public hearing
and asked Logue to prepare a formal written proposal. Worsman, along with Rep. Mike Sylvia (R-Belmont), posed a series of questions to the county administrator. Shackett said that she sent Worsman a spread sheet listing the accounts affected by the program along with a PowerPoint presentation addressing some, but not all, the questions. She said that she did not include answers to all the questions in the PowerPoint because Logue was not available last week, but assured Worsman that “all of the questions will be addressed at the meeting,” adding “that way the public will also be informed.’’ Worsman replied that the convention would require more information and needed it in time to be able to review it before the meeting. Commissioner John Thomas said that he was frustrated that the hearing wasn’t held and said that it was essential that the PowerPoint presentation be done at the public hearing. He said that he was concerned that the information which was provided would be used to ‘’let a few people on the county convention make a decision and then hold a public hearing after they’ve made a decision.’’ Shackett said that part of the motivation for the PowerPoint presentation is ‘’that it’s hard to get a word in edgewise at county convention meetings since we’re not often allowed to answer questions.’’ She also said that the additional information sought by Worsman and Sylvia, which has since been provided, ‘’was not relevant to the questions they have asked.’’ She said that she was hopeful that the convention
Celebrate
would eventually approve the supplemental appropriation but Thomas said that he had ‘’no confidence that anything is going to happen.’’ Thomas has charged that the county convention has been making decisions in closed door meetings, an assertion Worsman denies. She has said that the convention has held only one secret session, a Republican only caucus which was held at the Laconia Public Library in December. On another of the many issues which have divided the convention and the county commissioners, Thomas questioned the form that the convention submitted to the Department of Revenue Administration, which was returned to the county as unacceptable. The form, called an MS-42, has been at the center of the controversy between the convention and Belknap County Commission over the 2013 county budget. The Republican majority of the convention has insisted that the convention possesses the authority to rewrite the budget proposed by the commission by adding or deleting, raising or lowering appropriations for particular line items. In the course of managing the budget, the commission may only move funds between lines with the approval of the executive committee of the convention. The commissioners, backed by a legal opinion, claim that the authority of the convention is limited to itemizing appropriations in keeping with the MS-42 signed by the chair and clerk of the convention and submitted to the DRA. Following the adoption of the 2013 county budget see next page

the Cumberland River near the Tennessee state line. “The whole town is heartbroken,” Phelps said of Burkesville, a farming community of 1,800 about 90 miles northeast of Nashville, Tenn. “This was a total shock. This was totally unexpected.” Phelps said he knew the family well. He said the father, Chris Sparks, works as a logger at a mill and also shoes horses. The family lives in a gray mobile home on a long, winding road, surrounded by rolling hills and farmland that’s been in the family since the 1930s. Toys, including a small truck and a basketball goal, were on the front porch, but no one was home Wednesday. There’s a house across the street, but the next closest neighbor lives over a hill. Family friend Logan Wells said he received a frantic call telling him that the little girl was in an accident and to come quickly. When he got to the hospital, Caroline was already dead. “She passed just when I got there,” Wells said. White said the shooting had been ruled accidental, though a police spokesman said it was unclear whether any charges will be filed. “I think it’s too early to say whether there will or won’t be,” Trooper Billy Gregory said.
DEADLINE from page one withdrew its offer. Michael Connor, director of the Bureau of Purchase and Property at DAS, said yesterday that “we received a couple of inquiries, but no offers” and with the passing of the deadline the contract with Jones Lang LaSalle Americas expired. Connor noted that the Legislature exempted the transaction from the statutory process of disposing of state property, which requires review by the Council of Resources and Development, consisting of officials of major state agencies, and the approval of the Long Range Capital Planning and Utilization Committee, composed primarily of legislators. Consequently, if DAS receives any further offers, he explained that whether to present them to the Governor and Executive Council would rest with
the discretion of Linda Hodgdon, commissioner of administrative services. Meanwhile, a bill (Senate Bill 19) that would repeal the original legislation and apply the statutory process to any move to sell the state school property has carried the Senate and is scheduled to be heard by the House Public Works and Highways Committee next week. The Senate amended the bill by attaching a controversial provision that would eliminate one of three toll booths on the Everett Turnpike in Merrimack, which will likely meet opposition in the House. SB19 would assign the Legislature significant authority over the future of the state school property. Some lawmakers are outright opposed to sellng the property while others believe it is worth much more than its appraised value, which is the basis for the city’s offer.
from preceding page in March, Worsman hand delivered the MS-42 to DRA, attaching a copy of line item budget voted by convention along with a copy of the draft minutes of the March 4 meeting where the vote was taken. For good measure, she typed on the form a note advising the DRA that by majority vote the convention adopted a line-item budget and required the commission to secure the written permission of the executive committee of the convention to transfer funds from one line to another. Worsman has said that she has been advised by the DRA that the differences which led to the form being not accepted are only cosmetic. But Thomas says that the form has ‘’alterations
and erasures’’ and asked ‘’who at the DRA told them was OK to write all over the form?’’ The commission deferred action on another item which has them at odds with the delegation, a $1,500 bill from the Mitchell Municipal Group for legal services. The firm was hired by the county convention to represent the delegation in a legal action it wanted to take against the commission, which had already hired an attorney. Shackett said the bill doesn’t qualify for payment as it was incurred after the commission had already provided legal counsel for the convention. Commissioners voted to postpone action until it had all three members present. Commissioner Ed Philpot was not at Wednesday’s meeting.

RIFLE from page 2 bullet had been left in it, Cumberland County Coroner Gary White said. “Down in Kentucky where we’re from, you know, guns are passed down from generation to generation,” White said. “You start at a young age with guns for hunting and everything.” What is more unusual than a child having a gun, he said, is “that a kid would get shot with it.” In this case, the rifle was made by a company that sells guns specifically for children — “My first rifle” is the slogan — in colors ranging from plain brown to hot pink to orange to royal blue to multi-color swirls. “It’s a normal way of life, and it’s not just rural Kentucky, it’s rural America — hunting and shooting and sport fishing. It starts at an early age,” said Cumberland County Judge Executive John Phelps. “There’s probably not a household in this county that doesn’t have a gun.” In Cumberland County, as elsewhere in Kentucky, local newspapers feature photos of children proudly displaying their kills, including turkey and deer. Phelps, who is much like a mayor in these parts, said it had been four or five years since there had been a shooting death in the county, which lies along

LHS students make Teddy bears for kids in crises By Gail OBer
THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA – As part of the community outreach portion of the Jobs for America’s Graduates, high school students joined city police and firefighters to give them some handmade Teddy bears made specifically for children involved in traumatic events. Student Rose Therrier said the group of four, which also includes Cheyenne Noyes, Chelsey Parent and Skyla Mooney, said they came up with the idea when they were sitting around brainstorming. She said they realized that many of the stuffed toy donations go to the larger children’s hospitals – and that’s good – but she said they decided local firefighters and police could benefit from having some toys. “This is a really great thing you’ve done for us,” said Fire Department Deputy Shawn Riley. Riley said the stuffed bears will come in handy for calming children who are involved in medical emergencies. He also said it can help a child better understand an
emergency medical procedure. “We can point to the place on the Teddy bear and explain that this is where we’re going to touch them,” he said. Teddy bears and toys have always been an integral part of police work and Master Patrol Officer Ben Black said they are an invaluable tool for police to calm a child who has to come to the police station for whatever reason. “Kids eyes really light up when they get one of these,” Black said. “Anytime a child comes in for any situation whose family is involved in anything we want them to come away from the P.D. with something positive.” The four girls made two boxes of the stuffed animals – one for each department. “Hopefully this project will influence people to help in their communities,” said Chelsey. “We also hope it will encourage other local stusee next page

Bruins open playoffs with 4-1 win over Maple Leafs BOSTON (AP) — Nathan Horton scored the goahead goal late in the first period and the Boston Bruins used a revived offense to beat the Toronto Maple Leafs 4-1 in their playoff opener Wednesday night. The Bruins scored more than three goals for the first time in 10 games. They closed the regular season on a 2-7 skid that dropped them to the No. 4 seed in the Eastern Conference. That set up a first-round matchup with fifthseeded Toronto, the first time the teams have met in the postseason since 1974. The Maple Leafs, who are in the playoffs for the first time since 2004, lost four of their last six regular-season games. Wade Redden also scored in the first period for Boston, and David Krejci and Johnny Boychuk added goals in the second. James van Riemsdyk had given Toronto a 1-0 lead with a power play just 1:54 into the game. Game 2 is scheduled for Saturday night in Boston, where the Bruins have won six straight against the Maple Leafs. Horton gave the Bruins a 2-1 at 19:48 of the first period. Redden, obtained from St. Louis on April 3, took
a shot from the top of the right circle. Horton, sidelined the previous five games with an upper body injury, lifted his stick and deflected the puck past goalie James Reimer. After video review, it was determined that his stick stayed below the crossbar. Van Riemsdyk had opened the scoring after Cody Franson fed a pass to him from behind the goal line. Redden tied it at 16:20 with a slap shot from the top of the left circle that went between Reimer’s left arm and left pad. After Horton gave the Bruins the lead, Toronto had a good chance to tie it. But Tyler Bozak, who missed the previous two games with an upper body injury, was stopped on a breakaway by goalie Tuukka Rask at 8:40 of the second period. Krejci extended the lead at 10:25 when he gathered a loose puck in the crease, spun around and put a 15-foot shot past Reimer. The Bruins made it 4-1 just over three minutes later on a shot from the right point by Boychuk over Reimer’s left arm. New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft, watching from about 20 rows behind the team benches, waved a towel in celebration.
TORONTO (AP) — Clay Buchholz pitched seven shutout innings to earn his major league-leading sixth win, Mike Napoli hit two of Boston’s five home runs and the Red Sox routed the Toronto Blue Jays 10-1 on Wednesday night. Stephen Drew hit a two-run shot in the second inning and Napoli went back-to-back with Daniel Nava in the fourth as the Red Sox won their majorsbest 19th game and improved to 8-3 away from home, the best road record in the big leagues. Napoli hit a solo shot into the second deck in center in the fourth and followed up with a three-run shot into the third deck in the seventh. Napoli, who also doubled in the ninth, has six home runs this season
and leads the majors with 21 extra-base hits. Buchholz (6-0) allowed two hits, walked three and struck out eight, improving to 7-0 in his past eight starts at Toronto. The right-hander lowered his ERA to an AL-best 1.01. Only St. Louis Cardinals righthander Jake Westbrook (0.98) is better. For Buchholz, it’s the best beginning to a season by a Red Sox pitcher since Josh Beckett opened 7-0 in his first seven starts of 2007. Alex Wilson got two outs in the eighth and Clayton Mortensen worked the final 1 1-3 innings for Boston. The Blue Jays didn’t get a runner past first base until Adam Lind walked and went to third on Melky Cabrera’s single in the seventh. But Cabrera was thrown out trying to stretch his hit into a double before J.P. Arencibia struck out to end the inning. After rallying to beat the Red Sox 9-7 in Tuesday’s series opener, the last-place Blue Jays couldn’t maintain any momentum, losing for the seventh time in nine games. Toronto has won consecutive games just once this season, April 12 and 13 at Kansas City.

Celtics force Game 6 with 92-86 win NEW YORK (AP) — Back in the series, now back to Boston. The Celtics, winners of the most NBA championships, are two victories from making more history. Kevin Garnett had 16 points and 18 rebounds and the Celtics stayed alive in the NBA playoffs, cutting the New York Knicks’ lead to 3-2 with a 92-86 victory Wednesday night. The Celtics will host Game 6 on Friday night, needing two victories to become the first NBA team to overcome a 3-0 deficit to win a series. “We just wanted to keep it going,” Brandon Bass said. Bass added 17 points, steadying Boston as it shook off an 11-0 deficit and pulled away in the second half to stop the Knicks again from achieving their first playoff series victory since 2000. “We didn’t panic and that’s something we’ve done, but we didn’t,” coach Doc Rivers said. “I thought once the game got back to that five, six area, our guys were good again.” J.R. Smith, back from his one-game suspension for elbowing Jason Terry with the Knicks way ahead late in Game 3, missed his first 10 shots and finished 3 of 14 for 14 points. Terry also scored 17 off the bench. Jeff Green scored 18 points and Paul Pierce had 16 as he and Garnett, the two franchise stalwarts, extended this season — and perhaps their Celtics careers — at least one more game. Carmelo Anthony scored 22 points but was just 8 of 24 in another dismal shooting night for the Knicks, who blew a big lead in this game and now the series. They face an unwanted trip back to Boston instead of the rest this aging roster could surely use before the second round. If they get there. “I think we’re fine,” Knicks coach Mike Woodson said. “Sure we would’ve loved to close it out and move on, but nobody said it would be easy.”
The Celtics were the first of the eight NBA teams that have come from 3-1 down, beating Philadelphia in 1968, and put themselves on the short list of teams that have erased a 2-0 deficit the next year in the NBA Finals. So perhaps it would be fitting if they were the first to overcome 3-0. “I think so. I mean, I think that would be wonderful, and someone’s going to do it and I want it to be us, obviously, since that’s the situation we’re in,” Rivers said before the game. “Someone will do it, and I really want to be a part of that.” He’s still got a chance. The Knicks limited the Celtics to 75 points per game while winning the first three, and nearly came back to win Game 4 on Sunday even without Smith. So they felt good even after missing their first chance to wrap it up. Though few of these players were here for the streak, the Knicks were perhaps a bit overconfident leading into the game for a franchise that before last year had lost an NBArecord eight straight postseason games. Smith said Tuesday he’d have been playing golf instead of practicing had he played in Game 4, and players wore black to the game Wednesday as if they were heading to the Celtics’ “funeral.” The Celtics didn’t like it, with reserve Jordan Crawford exchanging words with Anthony and Raymond Felton after the final buzzer. Forget the funeral. The Celtics are still very much alive. Smith finally made a 3-pointer to end his drought, and then another cut what had been a 15-point Boston lead to 88-83 with 1:05 remaining. But Garnett made a jumper, then knocked down two free throws to clinch it. The Knicks were just 5 of 22 from 3-point range, which looked worse until Smith hit three late ones.

Carroll County Register Boxcar Lilies will perform at Temple B’nai Israel fundraiser at Pitman’s Freight Room on May 11 of Deeds will speak to geneaology group OSSIPEE — The Lakes Region Genealogy Interest Group and the Wolfeboro Public Library are cosponsoring a program presented by Ann Aiton of the Carroll County Registry of Deeds called “How to Navigate the Registry of Deeds.” This program will be held at the Carroll County Registry of Deeds in the Administration Building on Route 171 in Ossipee on Thursday, May 9 from 6:308:30 p.m. The program is free and open to all. The primary function of the Registry of Deeds is to record the purchase and sale of land and buildings in Carroll County, but there are other valuable documents held in their archives as well. Besides deeds there are records of liens, mortgages, old maps, histories, cemetery records, surveys, powers of attorney and records of military discharge. Ann Aiton will review how to use the computer system, the indexes and give an overview of what materials are available to assist those working on family history. The Lakes Region Genealogy Interest Group presents free workshops with the Wolfeboro Public Library on a monthly basis. For more information call Cindy Scott at the Wolfeboro Public Library at 569-2428.
LACONIA — The Boxcar Lilies ride up to Pitman’s Freight Room on Saturday, May 11 at 7:30 p.m., with their spine tingling contemporary vocal harmonies, their banjo, ukulele, bass, banjo and washboard, highlighted by their dynamic stage presence. The concert, a community fundraiser, is produced by Temple B’nai Israel and is the second of what promises to be a series of continual discoveries of new talent. This event also features a cruise ship style dessert buffet at intermission, catered by local restaurateur Jim Goren, which features lavish fruit compote, cheesecakes, fruit and meringue pies, chocolate delicacies, crack pie, red velvet cake, hot fudge sundaes and some surprises. A true Americana trio, Jenny Goodspeed, Stephanie Marshall and Katie Clarke- three singer songwriters met – and despite their disparate musical backgrounds, combined their stylistic differences, singing voices, writing voices and melded them into a whole that is somehow greater than the sum of its parts. They accompany themselves on guitar, clawhammer banjo, concert ukulele, electric bass and washboard and made an immediate impact at respected New England venues. From the first, an emerging Artist Showcase at the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival in 2009, the trio knew that they had something special musically and that making music together was an opportunity not to be wasted. Before year’s end, they recorded their debut CD Heartwood with esteemed producer Dave Chalfant. The trio are currently creating their second CD.

Temple B’nai Israel program producers Stu Needleman and Ken Goodman continue to hit home runs with their scouting of the contemporary music scene. The cost is $25 perperson, only $22.50 with prepaid reservations for four or more. As is the customary at Pitman’s, BYOB (cocktail snacks and soft drinks are complimentary). Reservations can be made at www.tbinh.org where online payments can be made through a secure PayPal system at which most credit cards are accepted or call 603-524-7044.

Among those students taking the Principles of Marketing Running Start class at PRHS taught by LRCC Running Start partner John Spear of Northfield are Amanda Bragdon of Ashland and Elisabeth Dreshaj of Campton. “The presentation made by Mr. Brown and Mr. Gowen was awesome,” says Dreshaj. “I really got an idea of what community college classes are like.” Students in Running Start across the State are able to earn college credit at a reduced tuition rate while in high school at the same time as they are completing their secondary school requirements.

Moultonborough Neck Holy Trinity School in Laconia invites public to Road Pathway repairs its Spring Enrollment Open House on May 8 beginning on May 6 MOULTONBOROUGH — With state permits in hand the long awaited repairs to Phase 2 of the Moultonborough Neck Road Pathway will begin, weather permitting, on May 6. The project will consist of the removal of the existing pathway, repairs to the subgrade as needed and then the paving of an extended shoulder approximately 8 feet in width. Highway markings and seasonal -delineation markers will be used to clearly identify the roadway and pathway lanes. The roadwork will take place on Mondays through Fridays and the hours of 7 a.m. through 4 p.m. It is expected to wrap up on or about May 17. During the work, which will be on both sides of the roads, flaggers will be in use to control one-way traffic in the work zones. Users of the roadway are asked to plan for short delays and be aware of construction equipment. This first set of repairs is expected to address continuing maintenance problems caused by automotive traffic spinning on the gravel median intended to serve as a separation of the roadway and the pathway. Heavy rains have then washed this loosened gravel across the pathway as well. The work for this year will extend about along Moultonbrough Neck Road 850 feet south of Highway Garage Road toward Kona Farm Road. The work is being carried out at a cost of approximately $75,000 by Town work crews and local contractors who responded to the town’s annual Call for Contractor’s program. Future work will be depend upon future Town Meeting appropriations.
from preceding page more items they are willing to donate are asked to call Kate and Mike Lancor (476-8409) or Amy Norton (986-0357). Arrangements can be made to pick up donated items in advance. This year’s Annual Food Pantries Auction is the seventh auction being conducted by HOPE (Helping Other People Everywhere) Auctions. HOPE Auctions was formed for the sole purpose of raising funds for charity organizations.

Get Fuzzy
By Holiday Mathis
for the things that bring you joy. Luckily, you don’t need a wooden stake to interrupt the pattern and restore your strength. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Money can be a powerful motivator, but not today. You’re more interested in the good that can come of hard work. If you’re finding it hard to put a price tag on your efforts, consider donating some of your time for free. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Push yourself physically. Get good and tired so you’ll sleep soundly. The restoration that happens while you snore will markedly improve your health. Vitality will return in time for the weekend. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ve veered slightly from the aims you made at the start of the week, but you also know exactly what you must do to get back on track. Today’s efforts will make up for lost time. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (May 2). You’d like to go for the kind of awards that might be easily achieved with a simple, straightforward plan, and yet what really appeals to you is the stranger challenge that no one has been able to figure out yet. Your originality and maverick ways net brilliant results. June and September will pay you well. Wedding bells ring in July. Leo and Scorpio people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 2, 33, 9 and 19.
by Chad Carpenter
ARIES (March 21-April 19). For a time, it will feel as though you are floating in a bubble of truth. Who you are in the moment is who you are. You might not know what to say, but you’ll speak from your heart, and you’ll pull people in. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). People think of you as a caregiver and gravitate toward you when they feel needy. But rest assured, they also want to be around you when they feel strong and ready to give back. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Partnership will be important to your success, and you’re particularly well suited to a partner who is inclined to troubleshoot and solve problems. Anticipating the negative will lead to positive results. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You sometimes feel as though you’ve lost the throughline of a relationship, but today you’ll be reminded why you chose someone and why you continue to choose this person every day. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You want to show your excitement, but with everything else going on, the need for restraint and taste will also be apparent. You’ll be rewarded for your adherence to protocol. If you don’t know something, ask. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The world is serious enough without your adding any heaviness to the mix. That’s why you love to be around people who laugh at your jokes, kid around, play games and give off a generally light, fun vibration. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). There’s a strong sense of justice in the way things play out today. Those who make the effort to climb a tall tree will get the fruit they deserve. Those who were born giraffes enjoy similar rewards. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’d prefer to spend your hours building your talent rather than fixing your weaknesses. This strategy will prove wise, and by the end of the day, you just may find that the weakness is a moot point. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Thought patterns can be like vampires, sucking your soul and leaving you with little energy

Yesterday’s Answer
Page 22 — THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Thursday, May 2, 2013
––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Thursday, May 2, the 122nd day of 2013. There are 243 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On May 2, 1963, the Children’s Crusade began in Birmingham, Ala., as more than 1,000 black schoolchildren skipped classes and marched downtown to protest racial segregation; hundreds were arrested. (During another march the following day, authorities unleashed police dogs and fire hoses on the young protesters.) On this date: In 1519, artist Leonardo da Vinci died at Cloux, France, at age 67. In 1670, the Hudson’s Bay Co. was chartered by England’s King Charles II. In 1863, during the Civil War, Confederate Gen. Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson was accidentally wounded by his own men at Chancellorsville, Va.; he died eight days later. In 1890, the Oklahoma Territory was organized. In 1936, “Peter and the Wolf,” a symphonic tale for children by Sergei Prokofiev, had its world premiere in Moscow. In 1945, the Soviet Union announced the fall of Berlin, and the Allies announced the surrender of Nazi troops in Italy and parts of Austria. In 1952, the era of commercial jet passenger service began as a BOAC de Havilland Comet carrying 36 passengers took off on a multi-stop flight from London to Johannesburg, South Africa. In 1957, Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy, R-Wis., died at Bethesda Naval Hospital in Maryland. In 1960, Caryl Chessman, who’d become a best-selling author and cause celebre while on death row for kidnapping, rape and robbery, was executed at San Quentin Prison in California. In 1972, a fire at the Sunshine silver mine in Kellogg, Idaho, claimed the lives of 91 workers who succumbed to carbon monoxide poisoning. Longtime FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover died in Washington at age 77. In 1982, the Weather Channel made its debut. In 2011, Osama bin Laden was killed by elite American forces at his Pakistan compound, then quickly buried at sea after a decade on the run. Ten years ago: A federal court struck down most of the new campaign finance law (popularly known as “McCain-Feingold”), overturning its ban on the use of large corporate and union contributions by political parties. (However, later in the year, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld key provisions of the act.) Five years ago: President George W. Bush sent lawmakers a $70 billion request to fund U.S. operations in Iraq and Afghanistan into the following spring. Al-Jazeera TV cameraman Sami al-Haj was released from U.S. custody in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and returned home to Sudan after six years of imprisonment. One year ago: Former House speaker Newt Gingrich formally exited the Republican presidential contest. Taliban insurgents attacked a compound housing foreigners in the Afghan capital, killing seven people, hours after President Barack Obama made a surprise visit. Opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi was sworn in to Myanmar’s military-backed parliament. Former NFL star Junior Seau was found shot to death at his home in Oceanside, Calif., a suicide.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Annie: I’m in my 40s and have been married for 20 years. We have two children. Our marriage has been OK but not totally fulfilling. For the past five years, I have been in contact with my ex-fiancee. I have thought about getting divorced a number of times but have never gone through with it. I love my wife, but not the same way I love my ex. Whenever I speak with my ex, I am my happy old self. She is the most caring, sweet, romantic person I’ve ever met, and I know, without a doubt, that our lives would be happy if we were together. Not a day goes by that I don’t think about her. We treat each other the way people should be treated. My children do not have the best relationship with their mother, so I don’t think a divorce would be all that traumatizing for them. I just don’t want to hurt her. I have spoken to her about the things I’d like changed, but she only complies for a short while, and then things go back to the way they were. Is this just a midlife crisis? Should I settle and stick with my current life or take a chance on a new one? -- Wanting No Regrets Dear Wanting: So why didn’t you marry your ex-fiancee? It’s not uncommon to fantasize about a wonderful life with someone you don’t actually live with. The mundane responsibilities, raising children, doing housework, paying bills -- all of those things are unromantic and unexciting. It takes work to make a good marriage. Don’t simply tell your wife what you want her to change. Maybe she’d like you to change, too. We commend you for not wanting to hurt her. So please give your marriage a chance before you bail. Ask your wife to come with you for marriage counseling to see whether you can work through some of those things that are making you unhappy.
Dear Annie: My husband recently passed away after 40 years together. It’s been heartbreaking. While going through his desk, I found a checkbook for our joint trust account. He had written in it that he wanted to leave all five of our children a sizable amount of money. I have no problem with four of them, as they are all employed and responsible adults. However, the fifth “child” is 58, unemployed, and living on his veterans benefits and disability so he can smoke medical marijuana. I have already written checks for the first four kids, but I am dragging my feet about the fifth. It was my husband’s wish that they all be treated equally. Am I being disrespectful to my husband’s memory by not getting a check out to my son? I’m afraid he will blow it all on weed. -- An Anxious Mom Dear Mom: We think your son is probably as responsible as he’s going to get. Certainly your husband knew this. Talk to your son. Explain that he has money coming to him, but you are concerned that it won’t last very long. Ask whether he’d like you to pay it to him in installments or put it in a trust for his long-term benefit. He may actually prefer an arrangement like this, but if not, please give him the money anyway. What he does with it is not your problem. Dear Annie: Perhaps the owners of vacation homes whose guests leave photos of their own families in the home could start guest scrapbooks. A large scrapbook would provide room for visitors to note when they were there and perhaps mention a few of the more interesting things they did while enjoying the generous hospitality of the owners. This would provide a nice memory book for both the owners and guests, as well as providing an appropriate place for guests to leave their family photos. -- Barbara in Ventura

MEREDITH — On Tuesday May 7 at 6:30 p.m. at the Meredith Public Library, Meredith author Peter Miller will read his original retelling of Geoffrey Chaucer’s famous “Wife of Bath’s Tale” from his book “Seven Canterbury Tales Retold.” The presentation is free and all are invited. The story will be of interest to mature adolescents and adults of all ages. In Chaucer’s tale, which is set in King Arthur’s time, a knight rapes a young maiden and is sentenced to die. Queen Guinevere intercedes on his behalf, and he is given the opportunity to save his life if he can, within a year and a day, discover “what thing it is that women most desire.” The knight’s quest seems futile until, a year later, he encounters an ugly old hag, who reveals the answer in exchange for his promise to grant her one wish. The knight repeats what the hag told him to Guinevere and her court. “Women desire to have as much sovereignty over their husbands as they would over a lover.” (Note: In Chaucer’s day, women had vastly unequal status in marriage by law and custom.) That
proves correct, the knight’s life is spared, and the hag presents her demand on the spot. “Take me for your wife, for well you know that I have saved your life.” The knight protests because she is so foul, but he must comply. Their wedding is joyless, and he dreads their first night in bed, but yields. “Then have I got mastery of you?” she asks. He affirms that. “Kiss me,” she says, and when he does she transforms into a lovely young woman. He kisses her a thousand times, she grants his every pleasure and desire, and they live the rest of their lives in perfect joy. Regarding his variation on this story, Miller says, “My tale, which is set on a college campus in the 1960’s, retains all the elements of Chaucer’s story, with one very significant and surprising change. I won’t say what that is, for that would be a spoiler. But I can assure listeners that they will hear an original, delightful love story told in Chaucer’s own style.” This will be the first public presentation of Miller’s version of the “Wife of Bath’s Tale.” Though it was written in 1995, it was not published until 2012, when the full set of seven improvisations was completed.
