The dream of earning a college degree, long considered the ticket to rewarding a career and lucrative income, could, in this tight job market and amid continually increasing tuition costs, turn into a nightmare. That is because just about every one who goes to college pays for at least part of the cost with borrowed money. Nationwide, young adults have racked up a whopping $870 billion in student loan
FrEE
debt, according to a recent study by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. That’s more than the debt on auto loans ($730 billion), and credit cards ($693 billion). Concerns are growing – locally as well as nationally – that for some families the amount of money parents and/or their children are borrowing to pay for college has become excessive. “Yes, it’s frightening to be in that much debt,” said Paulette Loughlin, president of the Lakes Region Scholarship Founda-
tion, reacting to one applicant whose loans for four years of college are projected at $135,000. Still, Loughlin says parents deserve tremendous credit for encouraging their children to live up to their fullest potential and supporting them in their quest to do so. “(Young people) choose expensive schools because they will give them a better education and will give them a leg up on really good job or graduate school,” she said. see dEBT page 10
McCollum named next principal of Laconia High School after 5 years at LHS, Steve Beals resigns to take job at his hometown school By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — School Superintendent Bob Champlin announced yesterday that Steve Beals, principal of Laconia High School, has resigned to become principal at Alvirne High School in his hometown of Hudson and that he will be succeeded by Jim McCollum, the principal of Laconia Middle School, whose place will be taken by the principal of Elm Street School, Eric Johnson. Beals, a former student and teacher at Alvirne, described his new position as “definitely a homecoming,” adding that serving as principal of his alma mater was high on his “bucket list.” In addition, since he lives in Hudson, he said that his commute will be reduced from an hour and a see PriNCiPaLS page 8

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — The world’s first private supply ship flew tantalizingly close to the International Space Station on Thursday, acing a critical test in advance of the actual docking. The unmanned SpaceX Dragon capsule flew within 1½ miles of the orbiting lab as it performed a practice lap and checkout of its communication and navigation systems. Officials at NASA and the SpaceX company declared the rendezvous a success and said the historic linkup is on track for Friday. It is the first U.S. vessel to visit the space station since NASA’s shuttles retired last summer — and the first private spacecraft to ever attempt a delivery. The Dragon is carrying 1,000 pounds of provisions. Thursday’s accomplishment “is a big confidence boost. Everyone’s very excited,” said SpaceX mission director John Couluris. After working all night and into the wee hours, he urged his team to go home and rest up for see SPACE page 13

Muslim Brotherhood in lead as Egypt counts votes CAIRO (AP) — The Muslim Brotherhood quickly staked a claim Thursday for its candidate to advance to a runoff vote, saying its exit polls showed him leading in Egypt’s landmark presidential election to succeed ousted leader Hosni Mubarak. As vote-counting began, exit polls by several Arab television stations also suggested the Brotherhood’s Mohammed Morsi was
ahead of the pack of 13 candidates. The reliability of the various exit surveys was not known, and a few hours after the end of two days of voting, only a tiny percentage of the ballots had been counted. But the swiftness of the Brotherhood’s claim showed its eagerness to plant its flag and establish in the public eye that Morsi had at least won entry into a second round
vote. There are five prominent candidates, but none is expected to win outright in the first round. A run-off between the two leading contenders would be held June 16-17. The first truly competitive presidential election in Egypt’s history turned into a heated battle between Islamist candidates and secular figures rooted in Mubarak’s see EGYPT page 16
Man arrested in 1979 disappearance of boy in New York City NEW YORK (AP) — A former convenience store worker confessed to luring 6-year-old Etan Patz from his school bus stop in 1979 and choking him to death in a basement, police said Thursday, ending a three-decades long investigation into one of the nation’s most baffling missing-children cases. Pedro Hernandez, 51, of Maple Shade, N.J., was arrested on a murder charge
after he told police he promised the boy a soda, took him to his store — just blocks from Etan’s lower Manhattan home — and killed him there, Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said. Hernandez told police he put Etan’s body in some trash about a block from the store, Kelly said, where it’s possible it was picked up by sanitation crews. No body has been recovered, and Kelly said
it’s possible the remains would never be found. Hernandez was questioned by police for more than three hours after he was picked up in New Jersey Wednesday, and gave police a signed confession, Kelly said. His motive was not yet clear. It’s not clear if he had an attorney; an arraignment was expected sometime Friday. No one answered the door at Hernandez’ see PATZ page 14

Cocooned liberals are unprepared for debate It’s comfortable living in a cocoon — associating only with those who share your views, reading journalism and watching news that only reinforces them, avoiding those on the other side of the cultural divide. Liberals have been doing this for a long time. In 1972, the movie critic Pauline Kael said it was odd that Richard Nixon was winning the election, because everyone she knew was for George McGovern. Kael wasn’t clueless about the rest of America. She was just observing that her own social circle was politically parochial. The rest of us have increasingly sought out comfortable cocoons, too. Journalist Bill Bishop, who lives in an Austin, Texas, neighborhood whose politics resemble Kael’s, started looking at national data.It inspired him to write his 2009 book “The Big Sort,” which describes how Americans since the 1970s have increasingly sorted themselves out, moving to places where almost everybody shares their cultural orientation and political preference — and the others keep quiet about theirs. Thus professionals with a choice of where to make their livings head for the San Francisco Bay Area if they’re liberal and for the DallasFort Worth Metroplex (they really do call it that) if they’re conservative. Over the years the Bay Area becomes more liberal and the Metroplex more conservative. But cocooning has an asymmetrical effect on liberals and conservatives. Even in a cocoon, conservatives cannot avoid liberal mainstream media, liberal Hollywood entertainment and, these days, the liberal Obama administration. They’re made uncomfortably aware of the arguments of those on the other side. Which gives them an advantage in fashioning their own responses. Liberals can protect themselves better against assaults from outside their cocoon. They can stay out of megachurches and make sure their remote controls never click on Fox News. They can stay off the AM radio dial so they will never hear Rush Limbaugh. The problem is that this leaves them unprepared to make the best case for their side in public debate. They are too often not aware of holes in arguments that sound plausible when bandied between confreres entirely disposed to agree. We have seen how this works on some issues this year. Take the arguments developed by professor Randy Barnett of Georgetown Law that Obamacare’s mandate to buy health insurance is unconstitutional. Some liberal scholars like Jack Balkin of Yale have addressed
them with counterarguments of their own. But liberal politicians and Eric Holder’s Justice Department remained clueless about them. Speaker Nancy Pelosi, asked whether Obamacare was unconstitutional, could only gasp: “Are you serious? Are you serious?” In March, after the Supreme Court heard extended oral argument on the case, CNN’s Jeffrey Toobin was clearly flabbergasted that a majority of justices seemed to take the case against Obamacare’s constitutionality very seriously indeed. Liberals better informed about the other side’s case might have drafted the legislation in a way to avoid this controversy. But nothing they heard in their cocoon alerted them to the danger. Another case in point is Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker’s law restricting the bargaining powers of public employee unions. The unions and the crowds in Madison, which is both the state capital and a university town and which with surrounding Dane County voted 73 to 26-percent for Barack Obama, egged each other on with cries that this would destroy the working class. No one they knew found this implausible. The unions had an economic motive to oppose the laws and seek to recall first Republican legislators and then Walker himself. The law ended the automatic checkoff of union dues, which operated as an involuntary transfer of money from taxpayers to union leaders. But voters declined to recall enough Republicans to give Democrats a majority in the Senate, and Walker currently leads Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett in polls on the June 5 recall election. The Madison mob seemed unaware that there were attractive arguments on Walker’s side. Why should public employee union members pay less for health insurance and get fatter pensions than the taxpayers who pay their salaries? Why is it a bad thing for property taxes to be held down and for school districts to cut perks for union members enough to hire more teachers? Beyond the Madison cocoon, in Wisconsin’s other 71 counties, which voted 55 to 44-percent for Walker in 2010, such arguments are evidently proving persuasive. Maybe liberals should listen to Rush every so often.

The only thing Lambert is promoting is a conservative opinion To the editor, I have been following the back and fourths between Scott Cracraft and Neil Young here in the letters with great interest. Scott’s letter in yesterday’s paper got me to thinking because of a couple of things he expressed. One was that he believes that Doug Lambert’s writings “promote hatred, fear, and racial enmity”. I have to disagree with Scott on this. Lambert expresses his opinions on many subjects and just because some people disagree does not make him a promoter of anything except his own opinion. As humans we chose how to respond to external ideas and forces, in this instance based on political leanings. Lambert’s thoughts and ideas are conservative ideas and, like most liberals, Scott is conditioned to think of them in the terms of hate, fear, and racial content. Look, when the Tea Party’s started up a couple of years ago they were focused on out of control spending, as they saw it, but liberals immediately labeled them all as racists, which was and is not true. That narrative of blaming those who oppose or question liberals and their ideas as racists or rednecks has been going on for decades. As a right-leaning moderate I see that as promoting hate, fear and racial enmity. I know Scott and know that that is not in his heart to do so but also know it sure feels that way to most non-liberals. I’ve never met Doug Lambert but I
also believe that it is not in his heart to do so either. That these two writers have different world views should allow them to debate those ideas in our forum and let the people decide which is right. If Scott is sensitive to how Lambert expresses himself then he should also be sensitive as to how he and other liberals express themselves. One other thing that caught my attention in Scott’s letter is he saying that the “birther issue” was a settled matter. I must ask, settled by whom? Because Democrats and liberals say it is? Thinking about that, if the shoe were on the other foot — Obama was a Republican espousing conservative views — I really doubt most liberals would be so settled on the matter. The problem was and is that the liberal media fell in love with the idea of a black, Democratic president and never investigated his background, history or much else about the man. I have no idea where he was born because there is such an abundance of conflicting information out there. It really comes down to this, people believe what they want to believe because no in depth, independent, unbiased investigation was ever done. Until such, there will always be lingering doubts in many minds and Scott and others can only say that they believe but can’t say they know. Steve Earle Hill
This Memorial Day, consider observing a moment of silence To the editor, Memorial Day is upon us. Unfortunately, over the years the traditional observance of Memorial Day has diminished. Today, the “3-day Memorial Day Weekend” is the kick off of the summer season of boating and barbecuing and is not always recognized as it should be. I was reading about the history of Memorial Day and found out a lot that I didn’t know about this important day. A long time ago, women and children would lay flowers at the graves of Confederate loved ones who had perished in battle. The day was called Decoration Day. There are many states that claim to be the first to celebrate Memorial Day. There is no definite proof of that claim and it started in the south some 30 years before the north. Back on May 2, 2000 President Clin-
ton declared in a White House Memo a “National moment of remembrance” to occur each year by all Americans on each Memorial Day. In the memo he asked that at 3 p.m. (local time) we stop what we are doing to observe a moment of silence to honor those soldiers who have died protecting our country. I think that is a nice idea and will certainly remember that each year on Memorial Day. So as you enjoy your holiday weekend with loved ones and friends try a new tradition of stopping at 3 p.m. on Memorial Day to reflect on our fallen soldiers. “We cherish too, the poppy red that grows, on fields where valor led. It seems to signal to the sky that blood of heroes never dies...” Moina Michael. Happy Memorial Day and God Bless! Carla Horne Meredith
Redistricting plan can meet both federal and state standards To the editor, As a plaintiff, on behalf of the Town of Meredith, in the redistricting lawsuit currently before the N.H. Supreme Court, I can assure Rep. Worsman that both the federal and state constitutional standards on voter representation can be met in a redistricting plan. Part II, Article 11 of the NH State Constitution states that “when the population of any town or ward ... is within a reasonable deviation from the ideal population for one or more representative seats, the town or ward shall have its own district.” For some unknown reason, the NH House
tion tolerable and thereby disenfranchised 62 towns, including Meredith, in its plan. Rep. Worsman claims that the U.S. Constitution’s 14th Amendment standard of “one man, one vote” trumps the N.H. Constitution. In fact, the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that standard “does not require that reapportionment plans pursue the narrowest possible deviation, at the expense of other, legitimate state objectives.” A legitimate state objective is certainly adequate representation in the NH Legislature. The U.S. Supreme Court has also stated that “indiscriminate redistrict-

LETTERS Social Security and Medicare are welfare in that most receive more than they pay in To the editor, Memo to Bill Knightly: If you want to go 15 rounds debating Social Security and Medicare, then let’s have at it. I ask only ONE courtesy and I will return it. When you comment on my opinions please stick to what I said and not INVENT crap. I welcome your critique. Just quote me accurately. I never suggested repealing either program. Further, I never said I opposed Social Security or Medicare. My CENTRAL point that you IGNORED ENTIRELY was that both programs are welfare versions because the vast majority of Americans get far more in financial benefits than they paid in to receive them. When Bill Knightly or anyone else collects substantial benefits FROM GOVERNMENT they did not FULLY PAY FOR they are getting WELFARE and SOMEONE IS PAYING FOR THAT WELFARE. What part of this logic is beyond your comprehension? In 2020 the average 65 year old couple will have paid in $200,000 to Medicare and they will collect $500,000 in benefits. Where do you think the extra $300,000 will come from? The tooth fairy. That is why I said Democrats and Obama do not have the GUTS to fix these broken programs and delaying their fix will only bring greater financial pain when they are. The ONLY reason Obama will not address them is because it is not GOOD for him politically. IT is selfish , presidential arrogance forced onto Americans. You can whine, wiggle, moan, groan and toss out moms witty proverbs but the one thing you can not deny is that these two programs are INSOLVENT. EVEN OBAMA admits they are. Is Social Security a Ponzi scheme? It sure is no matter how many billions it has paid out or how many Kool Aid drinking Democrats like yourself think it is wonderful. The fact is the program is a GIANT rip off. The logic of Social Security is fine. It is the EXECUTION and DESIGN that are beyond a disaster. People should be getting TWICE the amount of money they now get! That is right Bill,
you’re getting screwed and your loving it. The government loves it too because your lack of logic and partisan blinders plays into their hands. 1. Social Security money from the first day of earnings should be YOUR MONEY. In an account with YOUR NAME on it. 2. If you die this money should go to your heirs, not the government! 3. This money should be expected to return 7 to 8-percent per year, on average over the long term. Twice the rate you now get. Every pension plan in America that covers hundreds of millions of people shoots for those levels and reaches them consistently including every public union employee pension plan. 4. You should not be depending on how many people are in the workforce when you retire to maintain your income. This is INSANITY. 5. There is abundant of evidence from many sources — along with common sense — that suggests what I say is DEAD accurate. It has nothing to do with politics and all to do with financial intelligence and helping people in society who could most benefit MOST from a DOUBLING of their income. Democratic politicians scare the crap out of you about change and you swallow the bait hook, line and sinker and it costs America trillions in INCOME that should be theirs. 6. Social Security should be MEANS TESTED. It makes no sense to send money to billionaires. The only reason it has been done is because Democrats did not want it called WELFARE. So millions now get LESS MONEY because Democrats refuse to call Social Security what it is. Part WELFARE. The year long cut in PAYROLL TAXES taxes makes it even MORE WELFARE. Tens of Millions are paying in billions less to fund their future Social Security and Medicare benefits. Are their benefits going to be cut? Not on your life. I loved your little proverb. I like to use them myself. One from my pappy ... He said “son, if brains was leather some folks couldn’t even saddle up a June bug�. When Democrats start talking about Social Security
from preceding page ing, without any regard for political subdivisions or natural or historical boundary lines, may be little more than an open invitation to partisan gerrymandering� which is precisely what this House redistricting plan represents. Meredith’s population is adequate for, and our state Constitution requires it to have, two dedicated
state representatives. That is why I joined the redistricting lawsuit on behalf of the Town of Meredith. Arguments begin before the N.H. Supreme Court on June 6, and I am confident that both the state and federal constitutional principles will be upheld and a revised redistricting plan adopted. Kate Miller Meredith
Great Service at “YOUR� Convenience, Not Ours!
and entitlements that is the first thought that comes into my mind. It is like they become brain dead. I hope you respond because there is no subjects I like to keep in peoples minds more than the the disasters of Social Security and Medicare and Democrats REFUSAL to FIX THEM. I say, let’s fix them NOW for the sake of our children while the pain is less. Otherwise it’s all just the selfish me first politics as usual. Obama wont fix them because he says� ME FIRST�. Tony Boutin Gilford
Details of their preferred budget reveal each of the candidate’s priorities To the editor, The candidates budget reflects how he views the world and what he thinks is important. Mitt Romney has embraced the Paul Ryan budget and even called it marvelous. The policies and morality expressed in this budget are very radical and revealing. The rich are given a tax break bigger than the old Bush’s taxes. Medicare is eliminated. This has been one of the most important middle and lower class benefits since Social Security. Both Social Security and Medicare have kept a majority of the American population out of poverty. The Ryan/Romney budget would have us lose this benefit thus causing a morally wrong outcome for the American People. The Ryan/Romney budget would also cut many, many programs for the poor and struggling families. The SAFETY NET for half the American population would be severely weakened; a moral crisis. We are told that the poles for President Obama and Mitt Romney are tied (?). How can this be? The more that people understand the extreme contrast between the two candidates the more Obama will be favored. President Obama is for strengthening Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and the Safety Net for Americans in need. He is also for taxing everybody fairly so ALL of the people and companies are paying their fair share. Currently, the middle and lower classes are carrying most of the burden. Thomas Dawson Laconia

To the editor, As per Mr. Earl’s recent letter predicting higher heating oil prices, it seems some facts are clouding his ideology rants, that everything is the fault of the “liberals” and Obama. Some facts as I “perceive” them, as maybe not exactly being a liberal or a conservative that may just be opinions. Just recently North Dakota surpassed Alaska as the state with the second largest oil production behind Texas. The world’s largest crude storage tank farm facility at Cushing, OK has recently reported an inventory of crude of over 40-million barrels. Cushing has a capacity to hold 46-million barrels. Inventory there rose by 43-percent in the first three months of 2012. Cushing plans to expand this facility to accommodate increased U.S. oil production. The Seaway pipeline reverse routing has just been recently completed to carry U.S. crude down to the U.S. Gulf coast refineries rather than to move it north for distribution to the midwest refineries. The recent quote for front month futures in WTI are currently quoted at ~$92/BBL. The more significant to East Coast consumption and refinery supply, the Brent oil price has dropped to ~$107/BBL. When I picked up my newspaper this morning I saw that the advertised local price for heating oil just dropped again by another dime, 20-cents cheaper than what I paid when I last filled my tank in early March. After bottoming at a new modern day record low of ~$1.99/ MM~BTU natural gas still remains “dirt cheap” at $2.75. Approximately 1/7th the cost per BTU equivalent to oil. ‘So all that is still not of much comfort to me personally, as the price of heating oil is still 90-cents per gallon higher than what I paid to “pre-buy” in the 2010-11 heating season. The trouble as I see it is that the “Dumya/Dumbo” administrations have both pursued reckless economic polices that have significantly depreciated the value of the U.S. dollar. The current cartoon character has continued to prosecute hideously expensive wars of foreign adventure against the Mujahideen that were started by his predecessor. The U.S. has built the most massive and expensive U.S. embassy in history in Baghdad, with the apparent intention of occupying Iraq for at least the next 20 years, as we have done in Kuwait. Caving in to the “conservatives”, Obama allowed half of the +$840-billion, stimulus of his early administration to go to tax cuts for people who had jobs instead of providing assistance to places like Belknap County that are in desperate need of infrastructure up grades. ‘ A 40-year-old waste water treatment facility that needs a $10-million retro fit. Utilities that are still most commonly above ground where they can be affected by winter ice and snow storms. Thousands of Belknap County residents remain without natural gas utility service, 1/4 of whom live within less than a half mile where the current gas mains terminate. Our “conservative” congressman, eager
small businesses in heating oil and the near equally expensive NGL/propane delivery and burner services, has not done anything to alleviate our suffering. Is there any CURRENT spending on entitlements or defense he opposes? Then the Dumya/Dumbo administrations both continuing to perpetrate the hideously expensive “Mediscam” Rx-D, without any taxes to pay for it then, now or forever. So the “conservatives” are pledging to scuttle “Obamascare” but never have one word to say about either cutting or funding Rx-D! Mr. Romney was recently railing against this “Prairie fire of debt” ($15-trillion). But a week earlier was campaigning in Mr. Cantor’s state pledging to cancel an order for nine $3- billion warships to be built at Newport News ship building and REPLACE it with an ORDER FOR 12 of those ships. How does the “ultraconservative” Chairman Cantor feel about cuts to defense spending? It is clear to me that Mr. Romney clearly supports Cngmn Ryan’s entitlements reform plans to kick the can down the road across the line in the sand, rather than calling for “shared sacrifice” on entitlements NOW. Well he wants to get elected and if he does we can rely on a 16 year prosecution of the Dumya/Dumbo economic policies. Unlike Obama he will continue to pander because he will want to get reelected. This means the continuation of the Federal Reserve and the Treasury growing the U.S. money supply by 10-percent annually and an eventual near term $20-trillion national debt. All this to support the 88-percent of all U.S. spending that currently goes to defense and entitlements. A President Romney will, of course, pander to his core constituency and rid us of Mr “Dollar Slayer” Ben Bernancke. But with that $20-trillion debt to fund, he’ll then appoint another monetary policy “dove” instead of a hawk like a previous Fed Chairman Paul Volcker — appointed by Jimmy Carter to extinguish the Great Inflation I. That economic disaster generated by a previous generation’s futile waste on war without taxes to pay for it while America was being converted into a “Great Society”. Half on “The Wall” perishing after the “Tet Offensive” that proved to America’s joint chiefs who would be willing to pay the greater price in that war. A President Romney could not allow a Fed chair who would abolish ZIRP Everlasting, how would he be able to effectively finance $20-trillion in debt in a rising interest rate environment? So no matter who wins in November, the dollar will continue under pressure against any wide basket of commodities, including oil So I will at least give Obama “some “ credit for during his administration pursuing some policies that are helping with our nation’s oil addiction. Domestic oil production IS INCREASING during his administration. But the “conservatives” have held onto the 10-percent ethanol tariff on Brazilian ethanol even after getting their hands caught in the cookie jar with and then abolishing VEETC. Still while we

LETTER To solve the problems of today, we must look to our history To the editor, Edmund Burke expressed our situation eloquently when he wrote “people will not look forward to posterity who never look backward to their ancestors”. We have forgotten lessons offered to us from days gone by. Henry David Thoreau would most likely have a nervous break down if he were alive today to see the welfare state. He wrote that he would flee whenever he
“heard that someone was on their way to do him good”. We were taught well and warned often by our ancestors who had a greater understanding of the evils of those principles that are destroying us today. George Washington warned us of “the leveling principles”. And Edmund Randolph, another Founding Father, counseled us concerning the “turbulence and follies of democracy”. see next page
from preceding page have closed the gap, our oil imports are still exceeding 15-percent and that is enough for the global market to drive the price. That global market is increasingly wary of the U.S. monetary and fiscal policies and requires higher prices to compensate for their risk in trading in U.S. dollars. It is now more the looming onset of yet another global recession brought on yet again by financial institutions over leveraging, that is most likely to force oil down further. Only in this case the financial institutions are these effectively bankrupt nations leveraged up on increasingly being perceived as defective sovereign debt. That is, it is the treasuries of countries like Greece that are the failing financial institutions. I addition to world wide recession, these machinations in Europe are leading to runs on banks in countries like Spain, Italy, and France. Like banks that were too big to fail these are countries failing that are also deemed too big to fail as well. We have to be re-assured though, as in the first days of “Sub-prime mortgage slime creep” by Mr. Bernancke that the problems were “relatively well contained” and would not drastically affect the overall housing market or our larger economy. So we may indeed see even lower oil prices into 2013 as we descend into global recession. Last time that brought oil down to $35/BBL. We can collectively thank our leaders for that — for being less profligate than the Europeans and for being able to electronically create money to bail out nearly everyone. Something the Euros cannot do with their currency, without all the Euro nation members agreeing to facilitate the ability of the ECB to do so. But the dollar has been polluted by $4 to $10-trillion since 2008, and sub $65/BBL for crude is probably an unlikely scenario. Dumbo even allowing the Dumya tax cuts to be extended instead of letting them expire or be constrained, to pay for any of our prof-
ligacy. Then the “conservatives” like Trump blaming the Arabs when it is our refineries that have a problem operating at a profit when the cost of the crude oil stock is falling and their refined product time lag leaves them with refined product that is actually worth less out of the consequence of falling demand which is what drives the prices of crude down. They are forced to sell that stuff at very minute profit margins in order to be able to continue operating in the refining process which is their business. Some just shut down or sell out. But that supports refined product prices somewhat as less is being refined. So heating oil prices always rise faster than they fall. So, not being an ideologue as Mr Earl so obviously is by the tenor of his letters, those are some facts and unfolding realities that ideology will not conquer. We will continue without access to nearby natural gas mains and their vastly less expensive heating resources. The president’s administration has recently approved licensing for the exports of hundreds of thousands of tons of LNG. Not a penny of export tax will be collected on those exports to upgrade our nation’s natural gas distribution infrastructures. Those continuous JOBS on those LNG tank ships built in Korea or China, will go to non-U.S. taxpayers, just as with the cruise ships. We have so much gas we can never deplete it to the point where the Cook Inlet, Alaska reserves now stand, after nearly 30 years of exports to Japan? Mr. Obama is certainly to blame for everything now, as he has done nearly nothing in the way of changing what the Dumya did and then left us with. What a mess President Romney is about to have dumped in his lap! Maybe a new Fed chairman with the same ideology as his predecessor is change the ideologues can believe in? Tim Sullivan Gilford

Former New Hampton fire chief charged with sexual assaults on young girl By Molly A.K. Conners
NEW HAMPTON — The former fire chief of New Hampton has been indicted on a dozen counts of sexual assault against a female identified in court records as his relative. David Clement, 58, of 11 Clement Road, New Hampton, was indicted by a Merrimack County grand jury on 12 counts of sexual assault, including six felonies and six misdemeanors, according to documents released this week. The charges are in addition to sexual assault charges filed against him in Belknap County, Merrimack County Attorney Scott Murray said yesterday. A woman reached by phone Wednesday who identified herself as Clement’s wife said he did not want to comment for this story. Clement retired from the New Hampton Fire Department in 2008. The sexual assaults began in May 2002, when the victim was about the age of 8, and continued as late as July 2011, the indictments allege. Five of the charges are “pattern sexual assault,” meaning the alleged actions occurred on more than one occasion. The indictments charge that the assaults took place in Loudon. Murray said the investigation began
in Belknap County and that authorities there then referred allegations of abuse they believed happened in Loudon to Merrimack County investigators. “During the course of their investigation . . . it came to light that incidents had occurred in Merrimack County,” Murray said. Plans for Clement to go to trial earlier this month in Belknap County on aggravated sexual assault charges were postponed after his attorney learned more charges were likely in Merrimack County, The Citizen reported earlier this month. Murray said the fact Clement was facing similar charges in two counties does not necessarily mean there is more than one victim. He declined to comment about charges in Belknap County. Murray also said it’s possible the two counties could work together toward one agreement to spare the financial and emotional costs of multiple trials. “A lot of times you try to address these things as a consolidation, but I don’t know whether that will happen here or not,” he said. “It’s always preferable to avoid the trial process if you can do it,” Murray said. Clement is scheduled to be arraigned in Merrimack County Superior Court on June 6.
PRINCIPALS from page one quarter to less than ten minutes and confessed that he has been encouraged to cycle or jog to work. Reflecting on his five year tenure at Laconia, he placed the highest value on “my relationships with students, staff, parents and the community. I’m very thankful to the students and parents who embraced me and challenged me as well as to a very caring staff and the greater community.”
Beals said that he was proud of contributing to reducing the drop-out rate and increasing the numbers of students completing school, which he explained was the work of dedicated teachers, who “understand that one size does not fit all and met the individual needs of their students.” Calling Champlin “a great mentor,” Beals said that he will incorporate his “model of shared leadership” into see next page
from preceding page Jose Ortega Gasset wrote concerning “state intervention” in his book “ the Revolt of the Masses” in 1930, he noted “the result of this tendency will be fatal.Spontaneous social action will be broken up over and over again by state intervention; no new seed will be able to fructify. Society will have to live for the state, man for the governmental machine”. Alexis de Tocqueville noted “the will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men are seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd” In 1935 Roger Baldwin the founder of the American Civil Liberties Union admitted “communism is the goal”. He later preached “world order, a one world order, is necessary to human survival”. America has been transformed into a mixture of turbulent ideologies. Small turf wars erupt into larger battles for more domain. The federal
government captures more land, more resources, more sheep on welfare. Their principalities increase as the United Nations World Government moves to captures it all through any scheme that will give them dominion over the land, sea, air and even the children. We have come a long way since our founding. Our people have been fed garbage and ingesting poison gradually for so long that we fail to understand the truth when it surfaces now and them. Truth can be measured by how vicious the attack is against it. America can not endure much longer this way. Incurring debt after debt. Bailing foreign countries out. Funding illegals. Fiat as medium of exchange. Federal police. Poisons in our food and water. Washington hoarding land. Loss of property rights. Presidents exceeding constitutional authority. Unconstitutional laws. Unconstitutional treaties. Etc. Etc. If we were to work together to improve America, then we must take a good look at the problems that have plagued us. Where did they come from? Who caused them? And what are we going to do about the corruption from within? Gene F. Danforth Danbury

Storage units planned for Prescott Hill in Belmont
BELMONT - A local developer has a conditional approval to build storage units on top of Prescott Hill on the site of the former Lakes Jeep Chrysler. According to records filed with the Belknap County Registry of Deeds, A.E. Mitchell, LLC bought the property for just under $350,000. Since Allen Silberberg lost his Jeep franchise and closed his dealership, the building stood empty with Silberberg’s written opinion of President Barack Obama’s economic policy scrawled in window paint across the former showroom windows. For years the site was home to Neil McCreevy
Buick, Cadillac, Mazda until the Woodward Chrysler and GMC Truck across Route 106 closed and they moved across the street. Mitchell, who has since leveled the building down to the concrete slabs that were the bases of the former dealership, purchased the property for $343,500 from the bankruptcy trustee overseeing the dissolution of Lehman Brothers Small Balance Commercial Pass-Through Certificate series of 2006. He could not be reached for comment. — Gail Ober
Tilton receives grant to clean up ‘Ernie’s Garage’ property By Michael Kitch TILTON — The United States Environmental Protection Agency this week awarded the town a $200,000 grant to clean up and redevelop a property on the bank of the Winnipesaukee River that will provide the northern abutment for the so-called “Missing Link Bridge” joining the stretches of the Winnipesaukee River Trail System in Tilton and Northfield. Pat Consentino, who chairs the Board of Selectmen, credited Town Administrator Joyce Fulweiler with the success of the grant application. “Joyce worked long, long hours writing that grant, which ran to almost 60 pages. She put a tremendous effort into this,” Consentino said. “Joyce was the key.” “I had plenty of help and could not have done it alone,” said Fulweiler, who singled out Eric Silverberg of the Winnipesaukee River Trails Association
for his contribution together with the staff of the Lakes Region Planning Commission. Known as the Ernie’s Garage site, the 0.8-acre lot, bounded by Route 3/11 to the north and the Winnipesaukee River to the south, housed a sawmill in 1859 and a box factory in 1892 before becoming a gas station, automotive repair shop and used car lot around 1939. The town purchased the property in January 2011 in anticipation of completing the trail, which runs through Franklin, Northfield and Tilton. Before the town acquired the site, environmental assessments, undertaken through the Brownfields program of the Lakes Region Planning Commission, indicated that it was contaminated with asbestos, lead-based paint, arsenic, lead and polycylic aromatic hydrocarbons, potent pollutants created by burning fossil and biomass fuels. In addition, two derelict buildings on the lot must be razed. The see next page
from preceding page his career. In particular, Beals noted that he has been “empowered to be teammate in the planning of improvements” at the high school, the renovation of the library, auditorium, cafeteria and health office and, above all, the forthcoming expansion of the Huot Technical Center and reconfiguration of the playing fields, which he called “gravy on top of mashed potatoes.” “We were very fortunate to have Steve with us as long as we did given his commute,” Champlin said. “We’ve been very pleased with all he accomplished during his time with us.” McCollum will be returning to the high school, where he was assistant principal for three years between 2000 and 2003 before serving a two-year stint as principal of the Newfound Middle School before returning to Laconia to head the middle school. A native of Florida, he came to New Hampshire in 1994 after a spell as dean of students and athletic director at the Gold Coast Corporate Academy in West Palm Beach and spent six years as director of the Mount Washington Valley Academy in Conway.
Johnson, who was raised and educated in Minnesota, began his career in education in Arizona as a sixth grade teacher in Phoenix. He became dean of students and assistant principal of an inner city middle school before leaving the southwest for New England. During his five years at Elm Street the school has joined the ranks of the high performing and high growth schools in the state. “We’re more than colleagues,”Johnson remarked. “We’re good friends.” “We lift weights together and our families get together,” echoed McCollum. “With Eric at the middle school and me at the high school we will bring a six-to-twelve picture to the community.” “Continuity is important,” added Johnson. “I have the experience of the elementary school. We’ll work together to ease the transition for our students.” Meanwhile, Champlin said that a search committee will be formed at once to find a successor to Johnson at Elm Street School, which he said because of its high level of academic achievement would offer an attractive opportunity.

(Due to a production error, a portion of this article was omitted from yesterday’s edition. We re-print the article today in its entirety.) By AdAm drApcho GILFORD — Less than six months after David Byer opened Capital City Pawn Brokers on Union Avenue in Laconia, he is preparing to launch a second business down the road and across the town line. Lakes Region Auction Services, Inc., is the new venture, filling what Byer sees as a void in the marketplace. On Saturday at 10 a.m., when the company holds its first auction, it will be the only regular auction house operating in the Laconia region. The next nearest auction house is in Tilton, operated by Ken Barrett. Lakes Region Auction Services will be held in the plaza known as One Gilford Place, located next door to China Bistro. Harold French will be the auctioneer. As Byer explained, the auction house was always part of the plan he and his silent partner developed when prior to opening the pawn brokerage in November of last year. “This was one of our thoughts as far as liquidation,” Byer said. “The pawns and the buys pretty much come to us. What do you do with all these items you buy? You need an outlet to get rid of these things.” He has other reasons, too. “Reason B is, I love auctions. Third
is, I love auctions.” He thinks he’s not the only one who likes to see things pass under the gavel, too. “There is a niche for that right here,” he said. Starting May 26, Lakes Region Auction Services will host auctions every other Saturday at 10 a.m. In addition to items that he’s acquired through the pawn brokerage, Byer said the auction house will sell items on a consignment basis. He would be willing to auction off nearly anything. “We are always looking for quality items,” he said. “We have the resources to sell your one item to a whole estate, and everything in between.” So far, the auction house’s inventory includes sports memorabilia, musical instruments, antiques of all kinds, coins, general merchandise, silver serving ware, collectibles, old signs and posters, watches, a slot machine, jelly cupboards, cabinets, artwork, large mirrors, stoneware and many other items. He expects some of them to fetch $1,000 bids, while others will be brought home for $10. “As the economy continues to shuffle along, it’s great entertainment. It gets the adrenaline flowing, find that treasure that you’ve never been looking for.” Byer said the auctions will have catered food available, and he hopes a group of regular patrons will grow up around the events. “Great food, great people. It becomes as much of a gathering place for the auction crowd as for the auction itself.”
DEBT from page one According to the New York Fed report, 37 million college graduates owe on student loans; that’s 15 percent of the population. The average debt is $23,300, and based on information from the LRSF, the Lakes Region is pretty average. The Scholarship Foundation said that based on the information provided by the 340 college and college-bound students who applied for scholarship aid, the average amount of debt they expect to have when they graduate is $21,250. But some will have much more. Fifteen will have loans topping $100,000. Educators who help high school students navigate the college application process say it’s time for a reality check. “College is important. But the reality of paying for college has not caught up with that idea” said Lori Jewett, guidance director at Gilford High School. For young men and women in college or about to go, the reality is that these are borrowed times. And Jewett and others say that it is causing some to re-evaluate their priorities. While the appeal of the renown private colleges, like Dartmouth, or Holy Cross, or Colby, is still strong, more and
more students are seriously looking at beginning their higher education at the community colleges which are much cheaper, but now offer more in the way of academic courses that allow students to transfer their course credits to a four-year college. For example, one year’s tuition for an in-state student enrolled in the liberal arts program at Lakes Region Community College is Laconia is $6,930, compared to $10,410 at Plymouth State University or $27,720 at Southern New Hampshire University in Manchester, a private institution. “Within the past five years we’ve noticed a growing interest in the twoplus-two program,” Jewett said referring to Gilford students who start college at a two-year school and then complete their education at a fouryear institution. The state’s community college system is capitalizing on this trend. Holly Vieten, Guidance Department head at Laconia High School, says an admissions counselor from Lakes Region Community College comes to LHS every week to meet with interested students about the programs see next page
from preceding page grant will be applied to eliminating the contaminants from the site and preparing it to be redeveloped. Funding for the “Missing Link Bridge” has been awarded to the town of Northfield and the Winnipesaukee River Trail Association by the New Hampshire Department of Transportation. With construction of the bridge a trail system stretching for 5.1 miles will
be complete. The plan for the remainder of the site calls for 19 parking spaces on Main Street (Route 3/11) and a grassed area crossed by a gravel path flanked by wooded areas to the east and west. According to the timeline, the demolition and site work, along with the design and engineering of the bridge, is scheduled to be completed this year and the span across the river constructed next year.

from preceding page offered at any of the state’s seven community colleges. College education is a big expense. And while the cost of attending a public institution is much less than a private school, the costs there are considerable too. The cost of tuition, room and board, and fees to attend a school in the State University System averages about $20,000. The average cost for one year at a private college here in New Hampshire, by contrast, is around $37,000. Vieten says that the Laconia schools have a comprehensive program in place to inform and educate students and parents about college education and its costs starting as early as middle school. The schools make heavy use of the New Hampshire Higher Education Assistance Foundation to inform students about the range of college options and she says that presenters from NHHEAF do focus on the issue of affordability. “We urge students and parents to keep an open mind, and to have a least one New Hampshire college on their list.” The increased cost of college education has been accompanied by the amount of scholarship aid that is available. For that reason students may find that a more expensive college is actually more economical in the long run because that school offers the student a better financial aid package than the college with the
lower tuition. Jewett said one Gilford senior will attend a private out-of-state school this fall rather than UNH because the private school offered more in financial aid. But, she added the scholarship aid is rarely enough to pay the bottom line of tuition. Jewett admits that navigating the college selection process can be daunting especially for families who are unfamiliar with its intricacies. A guidance counselor’s job is not over when the student decides which college to attend. She also spends a great deal of time explaining the technical language in the financial aid letter the college sends which spells out how much scholarship money the student will receive, how much is to be paid while the student is in school, and how much will be covered by student loans that will be repaid after the student graduates. “Yes, the parents and the student have to ask, “Can we afford a Hummer, or do we have to buy Hyundai?” she said. The Lakes Region Scholarship Foundation has been helping area young adults pay for their college education since 1956 when it handed out $2,650 in aid. Over the years it has given $4,143,600 in scholarships. This year the foundation expects to give 340 young adults scholarships ranging from $200 to $1,500. “Our mission is always to give to the see next page

Account: This can be opened at a bank office just like a regular savings account. It also offers tax benefits. It is often the choice of those who do not want to be exposed to the risk of the stock market. -- Uniform Gift to Minors (UGM) account: This is better suited for use with students who will start attending college within a few years. -- Savings Bonds: Double E and I bonds can be used to pay for college. But the tax benefits apply only if they are redeemed by the student, or if the student is still a dependent, by the parents.

She noted that over the years the foundation has noticed two trends: An increase in the number of applications, and the increase in the level of need. This year half of the applicants were rated in the top level of financial need. Fredda Chertok-Osman was among the scholarship donors who were at the Scholarship Foundation’s Donors Day Wednesday to select which applicants would receive the two scholarship gifts being given by her and her sister, Maxine Derby, in memory of their parents, Edwin and Pauline Chertok. Because her parents were known for their involvement in the community Osman was hoping to select two students who had shown an interest in civic involvement. The day also gave her a chance to reflect on her own experience of preparing and going off to college. “I don’t think there was any question
about my going to college,” she said. And the issue of repaying her student loans at the time did not weigh that heavily on her either. After attending Clark University to major in psychology and then getting her master’s degree from Boston College her loans payments were $250 a year and then the loan was forgiven after 10 years. In addition to paying more attention to costs and the ability to repay student loans, it is also important for parents and students themselves to plan earlier for the cost of a higher education. Steve Aiken, vice president of investment services for Meredith Village Savings, said there are a variety of ways families can put money aside for college education which offer tax benefits. [See sidebar, page 11]. These investment or savings programs “are under-utilized and most parents don’t know where to begin. It’s better to start with something that with nothing at all.”
Gilford Budget Committee can’t decide about proposal to replace 25 year-old fire truck By Gail OBer
THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
GILFORD - After three hours of debate about leasing a new fire truck, the Budget Committee voted 2-to-7 to continue the meeting on another day because members didn’t feel they had enough information on alternative options. Members also delayed the vote because many of its members, led by David Horvath and Sue Greene, questioned whether or not the committee had a legitimate role to play because, regardless of how the people vote at a special town meeting on July 31, no money will be spent from the current year budget. “Could you tell us why we’re here. There‘s been no appropriation for these funds,” asked Greene to which Selectman John O’Brien, sitting as the selectmen’s representative to the budget Committee replied that it was required by law. “What law?” asked Horvath. “The selectmen called for a special meeting,” said Town Administrator Scott Dunn who told the board they had three choices - to recommend against a 10-year, closed-end lease for $440,000 for a fire truck with payments scheduled to begin in 2013, to recommend for it, or to make no recommendation at all. This Board found a fourth choice - delay until Tuesday at 7 p.m. while various people get together information about options other than buying a new truck, a legal opinion on why the town gets to hold a special meeting without going through a judge, and whether or not the Bud Com has any legitimate role to play in the process. The 14 residents who attended also got to see a PowerPoint presentation about why the town needs SPACE from page 2 Friday. “It’s exciting to be an American and part of putting American spacecraft into orbit, and we’re very proud right now.” NASA flight director Holly Ridings said the mood is upbeat on her side as well, but noted “there’s still a lot of really new things that the teams need to perform and the vehicles, frankly, need to perform” on Friday. “This is still definitely a demonstration flight,” she said at a news briefing. As the pre-dawn hours of Thursday unfolded, the space station astronauts struggled with bad com-
an Engine 4, how good it is at putting out fires when it works, and what 25 years of corrosion does to a fire pump’s internals. The voters rejected buying a replacement frontline fire attack vehicle at the most recent SB2 town meeting, choosing instead to fix the existing Engine 4 for about $35,000. When fire department officials brought it to Lakes Region Fire Apparatus, mechanics found not only were the insides of the pump gone, as expected, but the actual pump housing was rotted and would cost about $50,000 to fix that alone. In addition, all four springs were worn, the radiator was shot, the wiring rigged with too much slack, and most importantly, the brakes were non-functioning to the degree to which the department was forced by safety inspectors to bench Engine 4, deeming it unfit for use. The cab mounts also need replacing. Department officials told selectmen that fixing all of these deficiencies could cost as much as $80,000 and selectmen decided spending that kind of money on a 25-year-old truck was not in the best interests of the taxpayers. So, they decided to hold a special town meeting to lease a new one. If the vote passes, it would be late 2013 or early 2014 until the new engine would become available. As an interim measure, the Laconia Fire Department has agreed to lend Gilford an attack pumpertanker for use when its first-run Engine 2 is out of service, Carrier has gotten the Tilton-Northfield Fire Department to agree to let the town use a pumper-tanker for when both Gilford and Laconia have first-run trucks either out of service or at calls, and adjusted the mutual aid schedules to reflect the seemingly permanent loss of Engine 4. puter monitors and camera trouble as the Dragon zoomed toward them, but the problem did not hold up the operation. Indeed, all of the tests appeared to go well. The astronauts successfully turned on Dragon’s strobe light by remote control, but could not see it because of the sun glare and distance of several miles. The Dragon finally popped into camera view about 10 minutes later, appearing as a bright speck of light against the blackness of space, near the Earth’s blue horizon. The two solar wings were clearly visible as the Dragon drew closer.

LACONIA - A 12-year-old boy appears to have escaped serious injury after being struck by a car while riding his bicycle on Franklin Street last night. Police said the boy was riding through the intersection of School Street and Chapin Terrace at about 7 p.m. when he failed to stop at the stop
sign and was struck by a care driven by Kathleen Milne also of Laconia. Police said neither speed or alcohol were factors and the boy was taken to Lakes Region General Hospital by ambulance for what they described as non-serious injuries. — Gail Ober
LACONIA — A Massachusetts man will appear before a judge this morning after allegedly threating an 18-year-old with a knife yesterday afternoon at 5:30 p.m. near the Tyler Street Market. Police said Andrew Hicks, 21, of 18 Jacob St. in Dracut, Mass. is charged with one count of felony criminal threatening.
Police are still investigating what led up to the alleged threatening, but said when police arrived they learned Hicks had left the area and was driving a 1998 green BMW that multiple police officers stopped near the intersection of Gilman Street and Gilford Avenue. Hicks was taken into custody without incident and refused bail. — Gail Ober
PATZ from page 2 New Jersey home Thursday night. “He was remorseful, and I think the detectives thought that it was a feeling of relief on his part” to confess, Kelly said. “We believe that this is the individual responsible for the crime.” The arrest is the first ever in the decades-old case that gave rise to the missing-children’s movement and ushered in an era of anxiety about leaving children unsupervised. Etan’s photo was one of the first of a missing child to appear on a milk carton. The anniversary of Etan’s disappearance, which is Friday, was named National Missing Children’s Day by presidential proclamation in 1983. Detectives are often barraged with hoaxes, false leads and possible sightings around the anniversary of the boy’s disappearance. But Kelly said they believed Hernandez’s story because of specific details he gave to police. Hernandez, then 19, had worked as a stock clerk at the store for about a month and wasn’t questioned at the outset, Kelly said. But he later told relatives, as
far back as 1981, that he had “done something bad” and killed an unnamed child in New York City, he said. After a search of a basement near Patz’ lower Manhattan home last month hurtled the case back into the news, a tipster pointed police to Hernandez. Kelly said the person wasn’t a relative, but knew that Hernandez had said he had done a bad thing, he said. Hernandez was known to police as being a worker at the convenience store — a popular fixture in the neighborhood — but was never questioned, though other people in the shop were. He left his job days after Etan disappeared and moved to New Jersey, where he had relatives, Kelly said. Hernandez later worked in construction but has been collecting disability payments since a 1993 back injury, police said. He is married with a teenage daughter, he said. The focus on Hernandez came after other leads arose and stalled, at one point taking investigators as far as Israel tracking reported sightings of the boy.

Curt Schilling’s gaming company lays off entire staff PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — Former Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling’s faltering video game company, which received a $75 million loan guarantee to move to Rhode Island in 2010, laid off its entire staff on Thursday. An email sent by the 38 Studios company to workers and obtained by The Associated Press says they were notified of the “non-voluntary and non-disciplinary” layoffs on Thursday. 38 Studios moved from Massachusetts after Rhode Island agreed to back the loan. Officials said the deal would bring hundreds of jobs and millions of dollars of tax revenue. The company was more than two weeks late this month on a $1.1 million payment to the state’s Economic Development Corporation. State officials said the company wasn’t able to make its payroll. Gov. Lincoln Chafee said 38 Studios was facing “grim times” but he wasn’t abandoning efforts to salvage the company and protect the state’s investment. The state would likely be responsible for some of 38 Studios’ debts should it collapse. The email to 38 Studios’ employees thanked them for their dedication to the company. “The company is experiencing an economic downturn,” the email read. “To avoid further losses ... the company has decided that a companywide layoff is absolutely necessary.” The company had 300 employees in Providence, Chafee said. It also has an office in Maryland. It released its much-anticipated first game, “Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning,” to strong reviews in February. Schilling, who also pitched for Baltimore, Houston, Philadelphia and Arizona and was on three World Series winners, has said the game performed well, but Chafee has said it was a flop. Attempts to reach Schilling and company execu-
tives on Thursday were unsuccessful. Chafee opposed the loan guarantee deal in 2010 while he was running for governor but has since said he wants to find a way to help make 38 Studios successful without giving it additional taxpayer assistance. But he has acknowledged the state is “in deep.” “I’m still continuing to work for 38 Studios,” he said. 38 Studios has requested millions of dollars in tax credits under an incentive program for film companies and video game studios. Chafee spokeswoman Christine Hunsinger said Thursday state officials were trying to determine whether 38 Studios is incorporated out of state, making it ineligible for the incentives. The political fallout from the state’s involvement with 38 Studios continued to play out as two members of the 12-member Economic Development Corporation board, which approved the loan guarantee in 2010, stepped down. Board Vice Chairwoman Helena Foulkes said in a statement Thursday she spoke with Chafee and decided it was best that she resign. She said she wished him luck “in this very difficult challenge.” Board member Stephen Lane has also decided to resign, Chafee announced Thursday afternoon. Two other board members, Timothy Babineau and Daniel Sullivan, asked not to be reappointed to the board, Chafee said. The board members had been serving past the expiration of their term, Chafee said. Last week, the EDC’s executive director, Keith Stokes, submitted his resignation to Chafee, and Chafee accepted it. Chafee, asked if he was seeking the resignation of other board members who supported the 38 Studios loan guarantee, said “yes, we’re having those discussions.”
VEEP from page 2 Not that any of them — or any of the others who may have landed a spot on Romney’s list — are talking about becoming vice president. Nor are any of them acknowledging that they’re trying out for the role or saying the Romney campaign has asked them to do so. Top Romney aides are sworn to secrecy, as are potential running mates and their staffs — an example of the Romney campaign’s closely controlled, no-leaks culture. But their high-profile appearances come more than a month after Romney assumed, for all practical purposes, leadership of the Republican Party. His vice presidential search is well under way, with his Boston headquarters engaged in a secretive process of weighing the pros and cons of each potential pick. With three months to go until Republican National Convention, his campaign has little time to waste as it meticulously prepares the presump-
tive Republican nominee to make one of his most important decisions. With it will come implications not just for whether he’ll win the White House but how he would govern. Knowledge of the process is limited to a few of Romney’s highest-level aides. Information is on a “need-to-know” basis — and as far as those aides are concerned, there are few people inside the Boston headquarters at 585 Commercial St. who need to know, let alone reporters and other outsiders. The Republicans who discussed the vice presidential selection process did so on the condition of anonymity because the campaign has barred staff from talking about the selection in public. The process is so secret because it’s so sensitive. A vice presidential vetting is possibly the most intense background check in politics. Everything is fair game: voting records and the political past, to be sure, but also personal issues.

UN: Syrian forces, opposition committing crimes BEIRUT (AP) — The Syrian regime and an increasingly organized rebel force are carrying out illegal killings and torturing their opponents, but government forces are still responsible for most of the violence stemming from the country’s uprising, a U.N. panel said Thursday. The findings were released in Geneva by the Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Syria, which said the conflict has become “increasingly militarized.” The report was based on hun-
dreds of interviews since March with victims and witnesses who fled the country. “Fighters in anti-government armed groups were killed after being captured or wounded,” the report said. “In some particularly grave instances, entire families were executed in their homes — usually the family members of those opposing the government.” Children, including boys as young as 10, have said they are “tortured to admit that older male memsee next page
EGYPT from page 2 old regime. The most polarizing figures in the race were Morsi and former air force commander and former prime minister Ahmed Shafiq, a veteran of Mubarak’s rule. The Brotherhood is hoping for a presidential victory to seal its political domination of Egypt, which would be a dramatic turnaround from the decades it was repressed under Mubarak. It already holds nearly half of parliament after victories in elections late last year. The group has promised a “renaissance” of Egypt, not only reforming Mubarak-era corruption and reviving decrepit infrastructure, but also bringing a greater degree of rule by Islamic law. That prospect has alarmed more moderate Muslims, secular Egyptians and the Christian minority, who all fear restrictions on civil rights and worry that the Brotherhood shows similar domineering tendencies as Mubarak. “I think we are on the verge of a new era. We trusted God, we trusted in the people, we trusted in our party,” prominent Brotherhood figure Essam elErian said at a news conference at which the group claimed its lead. Morsi’s campaign spokesman, Murad Mohammed Ali, cited exit polls conducted by Brotherhood campaign workers nationwide, though he declined to give percentages for Morsi’s lead. Regional television channels, citing their own exit polls, also placed Morsi as the top finisher, with a tussle for second place between Shafiq, moderate Islamist Abdel-Moneim Abolfotoh and leftist Hamdeen Sabahi. Across the country, election workers cracked open the transparent ballot boxes — sealed by serialnumbered plastic bands to ensure they had not been tampered with — and began working their way through the paper ballots. By 1 a.m. Friday, four hours after polls closed, results from about 5 percent of the 13,000 polling stations emerged, putting
Morsi on top at 35 percent, followed by Shafiq with 22 percent and Abolfotoh with 16 percent. Voter turnout appeared far lighter on Thursday than the opening day of balloting Wednesday. But those in line where still revved up on the fervor of choosing after decades of having no voice in deciding their leader. “I like the personality of Shafiq. He is strong enough to lift the country,” said Suheir Abdel-Mumin, one of several women standing in line waiting to vote in the Cairo district of el-Zawiya al-Hamra. Somaiya Imam, still undecided on whom to choose, replied with a reference to Islamist candidates, saying: “Don’t you think we should vote for the candidate who holds the Quran?” “We voted for them before and they let us down,” Abdel-Mumin responded, referring to the Brotherhood’s victories in last year’s parliamentary elections. “They want everything — the presidency, parliament and government. They are never satisfied.” A woman standing behind the two joined in: “But he (Shafiq) is a Mubarak associate.” The Brotherhood faced a backlash from many of the voters who supported it in the parliament election but later grew disillusioned. Some accused it of trying to overly monopolize power and breaking earlier promises not to run for president. Others felt it simply had not produced any accomplishments with its parliament dominance — though the ruling military has severely hampered the parliament. Still, Morsi enjoyed the might of the Brotherhood’s well-organized electoral machine, the nation’s strongest. “We need a president who gets rid of the former corrupt and oppressive system and brings Egypt back to the position it deserves economically and internationally,” said Rizk Mohammed, a contractor voting with his family in Cairo — all for Morsi. He defended the Brotherhood against claims it was trying to monopolize all power, saying pro-Mubarak media were fomenting that idea.

from preceding page bers of their family are Free Syrian Army soldiers or supporters,” the report said. The Free Syrian Army is the rebel force trying to topple the government. The U.N. panel also said there is a growing list of abuses committed by anti-government armed groups, including executions of military forces and suspected informers. Anti-government armed groups have increasingly resorted to roadside bombs and have abducted civilians and government forces, apparently for prisoner exchanges or ransom, according to the report. On Thursday, the state-run SANA news agency said a mother and her five children between the ages of 4 and 13 were killed in Hama province. There were no further details on the killings or who was behind them. Despite the country’s spiraling violence, President Bashar Assad said Thursday that Syria would emerge from the crisis “thanks to the steadfastness of its people.” Assad spoke during a meeting with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s special envoy, Telecommunications Minister Reza Taqipour. Iran is one of Syria’s strongest allies. The Syrian government denies that the 15-monthold revolt that has engulfed the country is being driven by a popular uprising against Assad’s rule, instead arguing that terrorists are behind the unrest. The opposition denies any links to terrorism, saying they were forced to take up arms after government forces fired on peaceful protesters. A string of suicide attacks this year has raised fears among some observers that extremists are trying to exploit the chaos in Syria. The U.N. estimated in March that more than 9,000 people have been killed in the revolt, and the death toll rises every day. More than 250 U.N. observers are now based in cities around Syria to monitor a peace plan brokered by international envoy Kofi Annan, but the ceasefire is violated every day by both sides in the conflict. On Thursday, opposition groups said government forces shelled the rebel-held town of Rastan on Thursday, killing at least three people. Also Thursday, the state-run news agency said an armed group assassinated a lieutenant, shooting him and his 13-year-old son outside Damascus. The violence in Syria has spilled over into Lebanon, where deadly clashes linked to the conflict next door have killed at least 10 people in the past two weeks.

OBITUARIES
Lester E. Brailey, 84 BROKEN ARROW, Okla. — Lester E. Brailey, 84, passed from this life Saturday, May 19, 2012, in Broken Arrow, Okla. He was born April 6, 1928, in Alexandria, N.H., the son of Gilbert and Edna (Sturtevant) Braley. Les graduated from Franklin High School in Franklin, N.H. in June 1946, while serving his country in the United States Air Force from 1946 to 1947. In 1951 he headed to California and took a job in telecommunications with the telephone company for which he worked over 30 years before retiring Les loved to cook, eat, travel, sing, and play dominoes. He was also an active member in his church and volunteered in many programs. He would do anything for anyone while always having a smile on his face. Les was the most positive person until the very end and is truly an inspiration. The words “Thank You” are so inadequate for expressing our heartfelt gratitude to everyone at
Broken Arrow Nursing Home and Rivercross Hospice in Oklahoma. Your ability to offer calming peace and reassurance in life’s darkest hours is a gift bestowed upon you by God. Your kindness is a gift of your hearts. We are truly honored to have been cared for by such wonderful people. He is survived by, daughters, Rhonda Brailey Maurer of St Petersburg, FL, and Leslie Brailey Ginn of Bakersfield, CA; four stepdaughters, Judy, Trudy, Sandra, and Darla; numerous grandchildren and greatgrandchildren; and a host of other family members and friends, including his ex-wife Amy (Kimball) Cameron of Belmont, NH. He was preceded in death by his parents; wife, Betty (Reynolds) Brailey; six sisters; Violette, Gladys, Hazel, Marjorie, Jocie, Eleanor, and five brothers, Arthur, Chuck, Leo, Freeman, Gilbert, and stepson, Mike. Per Les’s wishes, there will be no services; his final resting place will be in Broken Arrow, OK

New bridge built in Meredith’s Hamlin Forest
MEREDITH — Over the winter, a supporting stringer on a Blue Trail footbridge in the Hamlin Town Forest gave out, so hikers, snowshoers and dog walkers had to ford the stream on stepping stones. The Meredith Conservation Commission, which is responsible for maintaining and repairing the numerous trails within the town-owned properties, took on the task of fixing the bridge. The Conservation Commission members and several residents recently demolished and re-built the bridge. Commission Chairman Mark Billings and his son, Tom, designed and fabricated the bridge in sections which were
then transported to the site with help from Lou see next page
from preceding page Penny Pingleton in “Hairspray”. Opening July 3rd, is “All Shook Up”, a musical inspired by and featuring the music of Elvis Presley, and will be directed and choreographed by People’s Choice Award winner, Brian Feehan. Brian was the winner of last year’s Best Overall Production and Best Choreography awards for “Cabaret”, but he is also responsible for hits like “The Buddy Holly Story”, “Hairspray”, “Fiddler on the Roof” and “Chicago”. You will also recognize some familiar faces, People Choice Award winners, Debra Thais Evans, Todd Little, Sheira Feuerstein and Ava Hill, who were featured last season in “Hairspray” , “Man of La Mancha” and “Cabaret”. The set is designed by Peter Kallok, who also designed last year’s “Cabaret” ,”Hairspray” and “Buddy Holly”. July 17th marks the opening of “Annie”, which will feature two more of the summer theatre’s favorite characters, Thom Caska as Oliver Warbucks, and Nancy Barry as Miss Hannigan. Inaki Baldessari will appear as Rooster Hannigan, with Todd Little as FDR. The character of “Annie” will be portrayed by Camille MacDermott, of Baltimore, surrounded by a talented and energetic brood of little rugrats!
This incredible season continues with “Singin’ in the Rain”, the stage version of the film extravaganza. This production will feature People Choice Award winner for Best Actor, Dara Hartman as Kathy Seldon. Audiences will remember Dara’s compelling portrayal of Sally Bowles in “Cabaret”. Costumes will be designed by David Withrow, who designed last year’s “Cabaret”. Finally, the season will conclude with “A Chorus Line”, featuring Meredith’s own Ashley Landroche as “Cassie” in this production. She is a graduate of the Walnut Hill School and the University of Cincinnati’s College-Conservatory of Music. She has performed at Scotland’s Edinburgh Fringe Festival, on PBS with the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra and at Alice Tully Hall at the Lincoln Center in NYC.

Franklin High School teacher Kerry Cook receives award from community college system
CONCORD — Lakes Region Community College and the Community College System of NH (CCSNH) recently honored Kerry Cook, math teacher at Franklin High School, for her work promoting the Running Start program, a partnership between the Community College System and NH high schools that enables high school juniors and seniors to get
a jump start on their college education. The award was presented May 8 at a ceremony in Concord by Governor Lynch and Community College System leaders. Running Start is an enrollment partnership that enables high school students to take courses at their schools that satisfy both high school and college requirements. Course credits through the Running Start program are accepted at NH’s community colleges, as well as many other colleges and universities in and outside New Hampshire. Each course costs just $150, providing substantial savings to NH students and their families from the cost of a college education. Sixty-five New Hampshire public high schools participate in the Running Start program, which has grown to over 5,000 enrollments annually. Governor Lynch, CCSNH Board Chairman Paul Holloway and System Chancellor Ross Gittell presented the awards, with Department of Education Commissioner Virginia Barry in attendance. According to Paul Holloway, “There has never been a more important time for the Running Start program. With the budget challenges faced by public education, finding strategies to make college affordable for our New Hampshire students is critical. Running Start enables students and their families to save thousands from the cost of college.” Kerry Cook was selected for her commitment to her students at Franklin High School. Ms. Cook has spent the last three years working with LRCC’s Mathematics Department personnel to redesign the mathematics curriculum to better prepare her students for college-level work. With Ms. Cook’s dedication, fourteen of her students were able to meet the College Board’s Accuplacer Placement Exam for Statistics and earned four college credits.

Event at Patrick’s Pub on May 8 raised funds for the Friends of the Meredith Library
On May 8th, the Friends of the Meredith Library hosted a 50/50 event at Patrick’s Pub. The restaurant was very generous in giving 50-percent of the proceeds back to the Friends, which was a wonderful way to help raise funds for our library. There was a very large turnout for the delicious food and a very entertaining evening. Through fundraising efforts and membership, the Friends raise money to help with children’s and adult reading and other programs, provide passes to the Squam Lakes Natural Science Center, Castle in the Clouds, various museums, support New Hampshire Humanities Council speakers, genealogy programs, gardening activities and staff education. The Friends encourage the community to join them in ensuring that the wonderful programs and services that the Meredith Library offers continue and grow.

by Darby Conley
Get Fuzzy
By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It may be hard to wrap your head around another person’s problems, but you’ll try to give genuine understanding to everyone you love. Your compassion will be returned in kind. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Just because you’re orienting yourself to your own needs doesn’t mean you are selfish. You are, in fact, doing others a favor by providing for yourself. It’s just easier this way! CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your popularity can open doors for others and also move your own agenda along. Make good use of the rapport you’ve built and the relationships you so easily maintain. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The facts are apparent, and the answers are written in plain form. Because of this, a disagreement can now be settled without protest or drama. All will be resolved by evening. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). If everyone does a small piece of a job, you’ll wind up with hundreds of small pieces instead of one finished job. That is, unless you’re the leader. If you’re in charge, you’ll get it done. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (May 25). After a bit of compromise and some juggling, a relationship settles into a wonderful groove in July. You’ll find work you love and will commit to it with great diligence in August. It is most auspicious to build your savings up through September and October. You’ll be cheering loved ones on in December. Capricorn and Taurus people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 30, 2, 3, 23 and 19.
TUNDRA
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You were strongly persuaded -- maybe even tricked -- to do a job. In any case, you agreed, and that’s that. Fantastic luck occurs because you keep your word. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your opinion is needed, but not more than your affection and admiration. You’ll realize the full scope of what you can give, and you’ll be judicious with your contributions. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Being too focused on results, you may not realize all you have accomplished along the way. Look back and celebrate each milestone. For your efforts, you deserve, and will receive, the very best. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You know better than to ask others what you should be doing. You’ll ask your own heart. The answer you get may require interpretation and translation, but it will be exactly, perfectly “you.” LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). When you’re in your own realm, you have a strong sense of purpose, but there’s something about foreign territory that makes you want to loaf around. Both environments are beneficial to you now. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). At work, there’s a force being applied that keeps you on task and within a certain deadline. You may not like the pressure, but you have to admit that it’s effective. You wouldn’t have nearly the results without this force. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll get excited about what’s coming up. And even though you can see the outline of the future silhouetted on the horizon, when you actually get there, it will still be somewhat of a surprise.

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Friday, May 25, 2012— Page 23
––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Friday, May 25, the 146th day of 2012. There are 220 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On May 25, 1787, the Constitutional Convention began at the Pennsylvania State House (Independence Hall) in Philadelphia after enough delegates had shown up for a quorum. (The Convention ended four months later with the delegates adopting the Constitution of the United States.) On this date: In 1895, playwright Oscar Wilde was convicted of a morals charge in London; he was sentenced to two years in prison. In 1916, the Chicago Tribune published an interview with Henry Ford in which the automobile industrialist was quoted as saying, “History is more or less bunk. It’s tradition. We don’t want tradition. We want to live in the present and the only history that is worth a tinker’s dam is the history we make today.” In 1935, Babe Ruth hit the 714th and final home run of his career, for the Boston Braves, in a game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. In 1942, U.S. Army Lt. Gen. Joseph Stilwell, frustrated over being driven out of Burma by Japanese troops during World War II, bluntly told reporters in Delhi, India: “I claim we got a hell of a beating.” In 1961, President John F. Kennedy told Congress: “I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to the earth.” In 1968, the Gateway Arch in St. Louis was dedicated by Vice President Hubert Humphrey and Interior Secretary Stewart Udall. In 1979, 273 people died when an American Airlines DC-10 crashed just after takeoff from Chicago’s O’Hare airport. In 1981, daredevil Dan Goodwin, wearing a Spiderman costume, scaled the outside of Chicago’s Sears Tower in 7½ hours. In 1986, an estimated 7 million Americans participated in “Hands Across America” to raise money for the nation’s hungry and homeless. In 1992, Jay Leno made his debut as host of NBC’s “Tonight Show,” succeeding Johnny Carson. One year ago: A judge in Salt Lake City sentenced street preacher Brian David Mitchell to life in prison for kidnapping and raping Elizabeth Smart, who was 14 at the time of her abduction in 2002. Today’s Birthdays: Lyricist Hal David is 91. Country singer-songwriter Tom T. Hall is 76. Actor Sir Ian McKellen is 73. Actress-singer Leslie Uggams is 69. Movie director and Muppeteer Frank Oz is 68. Actress Karen Valentine is 65. Rock singer Klaus Meine is 64. Actress Patti D’Arbanville is 61. Actress Connie Sellecca is 57. Rock singer-musician Paul Weller is 54. Actorcomedian Mike Myers is 49. Actor Matt Borlenghi is 45. Actor Joseph Reitman is 44. Rock musician Glen Drover is 43. Actress Anne Heche is 43. Actresses Sidney and Lindsay Greenbush are 42. Actor-comedian Jamie Kennedy is 42. Actress Octavia Spencer is 42. Actor Justin Henry is 41. Actress Molly Sims is 39. Singer Lauryn Hill is 37. Actor Cillian Murphy is 36. Actor Ethan Suplee is 36. Rock musician Todd Whitener is 34.

Annie’s Book Stop holds Grand Re-opening Saturday
LACONIA — Annie’s Book Stop will be celebrating a grand re-opening on Saturday, May 26 at which three local authors will be signing copies of their books.

People are invited to come and hear Leon talk about his book, writing and share his love of poetry. Kazuko Okubo will be signing copies of her book: Japanese Wife from noon to 2 p.m. Japanese Wife is a book about a woman born into a Japanese Samurai family and her struggles to become an American and fit into the American culture. Okubo tells of her life, brought here by an American man who ends up abusing her and keeping her in virtual isolation and servitude in southernmost Florida. She lived in abject poverty which is unimaginable for a woman raised to become a budding dressmaker and trained to become the “perfect” Japanese wife. Come and
share her journey and ask her questions if you like. Angel Costello will be signing copies of her book: I Died a Little Every Night from 2-4 p.m. Angel tells of coming from a long history of violence and abuse and bravely narrates the story of her decade long journey of endured multiple forms of physical, sexual and emotional abuse at the hands of her step-father. Pregnant with the seed of her abuser, it seemed the emotional cycle of abuse would never come to an end. Come and hear this amazing woman talk about her rise out of abuse, and her advocacy for those who are currently suffering in the throes of abuse. You will be encouraged by this woman’s honesty. Annie’s is located at 1330 Union Avenue and has been here for twenty-nine years. It will be celebrating new ownership of the store with some in-store specials. Light snacks and drinks will be provided. The store offers gift certificates, gently used paperbacks and new books at below retail pricing.

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Friday, May 25, 2012— Page 25
ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Annie: I am becoming excessively annoyed by a new trend I’m seeing with my friends who have recently become parents -- the “naked mommy.” I’m 27 and have not yet had children. Several of my friends are having their second or third, but most are on their first. I work in a physician’s office, so I see a lot of medical-related nudity, and it is not a problem for me. But when I check my email, text messages or Facebook page, it is an entirely different story. All of my “mommy friends” are posting pictures of themselves breast feeding or otherwise with everything hanging out for the world to see. A friend of mine recently posted a very detailed video of the birth of her daughter. Another friend could have fielded a softball team with the number of people who were in the delivery room, including her husband’s male friends. It was weird. My sister, bless her heart, dropped her undies at a friend’s baby shower to show her episiotomy stitches. I understand that going through the process of having a baby makes you inured to being naked. But that doesn’t mean others want to see you in the raw. I’ve tried telling my friends that I have no interest in their breastfeeding and delivery videos, but they say I’m a prude. Am I wrong to think that just because you can take a picture of it doesn’t mean you should? -- Not a Prude, Just Prudent Dear Prudent: This is a combination of new mommy pride and the current obsession to publicize every private moment -- with a little exhibitionism thrown in. New parents are often so enamored of their amazing experience that they feel compelled to share all the specific details with everyone. We agree that they should save the explicit photos, videos and dropped panties (for heaven’s sake) specifically for those who ask to see them. Dear Annie: A young adult nephew recently sent a letter to family and friends asking for donations to help pay for a
summer humanitarian aid trip working as a missionary in a Third World country. While this person is one of my favorite relatives, I have a problem with this. My idea of fundraising for personal goals is working your tail off at a car wash, not hitting up relatives for money. More importantly, I believe in respecting the religious beliefs of indigenous cultures and providing humanitarian aid with no religious strings attached. I feel if I raise the first objection, I’ll become the black-sheep “Scrooge” of the family. Raising the second point will offend this nephew’s religious beliefs. My inclination is to send a small donation and keep my mouth shut. What would you do? -- Reluctant Contributor Dear Reluctant: It is not necessary to argue the merits of the trip or your opinion about fundraising. Your choice is simply to donate or not. If you think a small amount will maintain peace in the family and not overly irritate you, it’s a reasonable compromise. Dear Annie: “Worst Fiance Ever in Toronto” sounds as if he has a lot of remorse about sleeping with his soon-to-be sisterin-law. However, he can’t keep this inside forever. I really think it’s best for him to come clean and tell his fiancee everything, even though the consequences will most probably be the termination of the engagement and possibly the end of her brother’s marriage. He messed up big time, and even though it will devastate her family, he owes her the truth so she can plan the rest of her life. The sister-in-law is just as guilty and needs to bear the consequences of her actions. -- Calling It as I See It in Connecticut Dear Calling: We agree that he should tell his fiancee that he cheated. However, naming names and destroying the sisterin-law’s marriage is not so simple, and we don’t recommend it. That should be her decision, not his.

Inter-Lakes student ‘grows’ with career partnership MEREDITH — InterLakes High School senior Kirsten Fields has always been interested in agriculture through the maintenance of her own gardens and agricultural science course in school. For Kristen, though, her passion for agriculture and the outdoors lead her to try and pursue the dream of owning her organic sustainable farm. To help make her dream a reality, she asked the Greater Meredith’s Career Partnership Program Director, Rhonda Hanaway, how to go about shadowing a farmer. With Hanaway’s help, she was put in contact with Stephen Bartlett from Booty Family Farm in Center Sandwich. Bartlett was very interested in entertaining the idea of an intern, and one day in mid-April the three of them met at the farm and made Kirsten’s dream come true. Kirsten was very excited to start her first day working on the Booty Family Farm, as she preferred being outdoors and was used to working in the garden. Kristen arrived at the farm with a pair of rubber boots, a rainjacket, sunscreen and bug spray in hand. She was ready to get started making her dream internship a reality. Later on in the internship, Hanaway visited the farm again and met with Kristen to hear about all the wonderful things Kristen was learning and experiencing. In speaking with Kirsten that day, Kristen’s excitement was evident. “After I finish this school year, I am going to the Lakes Region Community College for an Associates Degree in Business Management,” Kristen told Hathaway. “After this, I plan to earn a Bachelors Degree in some form of Agriculture. My ultimate goal is to own and operate my own organic farm. I have already learned so much through my internship, not only about the actual farming part of it, but about all the hard work that goes into it. Before I started the internship I was worried I would not like it, and end up completely lost without a goal. Miraculously though, after spending only 10 minutes on the farm, I fell completely in love with it.” Through the Greater Meredith’s Career Partnership Program, internships like Kirsten’s are possible. Other programs offered such as job shadows, volunteer opportunities, a guest speakers’ bureau and a spring job fair would not be possible without the help and support of local businesses, like Booty Family Farm.

Funspot hosting 14th Annual International Classic Videogame Tournament, May 31 through June 3 LACONIA — The 14th annual International Classic Videogame Tournament at The American Classic Arcade Museum (ACAM) at Funspot at The American Classic Arcade Museum (ACAM) at Funspot. The event will begin on May 31 and conclude June 3 Credited with reviving classic arcade game competitions, the annual tournament brings together thr world’s best video game players for four-days of intense competition and has seen many world records set in dozens of classic games. Tournament hours are Thursday Noon-10 p.m., Friday and Saturday 10 a.m.-11 p.m. and Sunday 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Admission is $60 and includes 250 game tokens. This year’s tournament is sponsored in part by Mix 94.1FM, The Planet 100.1, New Country 106.9 & Gamer Soda. The first 100 registrants will receive a commemorative T-shirt and goodie bag. Tournament registration is at the door only. In an effort to maintain a fair and balanced playing field, the annual International Classic Videogame Tournament never announces the competition games until the first day of the event. The 2010 tournament saw the introduction of real-time scoring to the event. David Hernly, owner of Aurcade approached ACAM staff with a plan to take the tournament scoring to a new level. Players signed off on their scores by touching the appropriate box on an Apple iPad and within seconds, their score was factored into the database and projected live on a 10’ wide display for everyone to see. This addition was an immense hit with the competitors and prompted a new record of 4,000 plus scores to be logged during the 4-day event. In 2011, an interactive touch-screen was added to create an electronic Wall of Fame, a replacement for the long popular photo and picture frame attraction in the museum. The kiosk also provides live updates
during events. Aurcade will be returning to the 2012 tournament with their scoring system and an exciting new update will be unveiled at that time. People from around the world will be able to monitor the tournament scoring live during the event via smart phone or the internet. More information on Aurcade scoring, their arcade finder database and how to monitor the tournament live can be found at www.aurcade. com Hailed as “The Mecca of Classic Gaming” by MSNBC, The American Classic Arcade Museum at Funspot is the first 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to preserving and displaying vintage coin-operated amusements and their history. Located on the third floor of the immense Funspot Family Entertainment Super Center, the museum celebrates the origins of the arcade industry with popular games from the past. Asteroids, Pac-Man, Centipede and Gorgar are just a few of the nearly 300 games inside ACAM. The museum also contains static displays of game history and the walls feature many posters of vintage arcade games. The Funspot Family Entertainment Super Center is located on Route 3 in Weirs Beach. The facility was founded in 1952 by Bob Lawton and has been continuously operated by him and his family ever since. The 60,000 square foot center features over 500 games, 20 bowling lanes, an outdoor miniature golf course, a 400-seat Bingo hall, a restaurant, the D.A. Long Tavern and an indoor retro mini-golf. In June 2008, Guinness World Records named Funspot the largest arcade in the world. Funspot and The American Classic Arcade Museum are open yearround. More information can be found at www.funspotnh. com and www.ClassicArcadeMuseum.org.
