Powerful GOP rep opposes $2.16M sale to city

BY MICHAEL KITCH

of

LACONIA, N.H.

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

CONCORD — While the N.H. Senate leadership appears to support Laconia’s effort to acquire the state-owned property on North Main Street that formerly housed the Laconia State School, at least one prominent member of the Republican leadership in the House has openly expressed his misgivings about the sale.

Rep. Gene Chandler (R-Bartlett), a former Speaker of the House who in his 13th term serves as the Republican policy leader and chairman of the Public Works and Highways Committee, said Friday that he was opposed to state selling the property to the city for its appraised value of $2.16-million.

This afternoon the Senate Capital Budget Committee will consider legislation

introduced by its chairman, Senator David Boutin (R-Hooksett), that would direct the Commissioner of the Department of Administrative Services (DAS) to offer the property for sale at its “fair market value.”

The bill repeals a provision of the companion bill to the 2012-2013 state budget stipulating that the property be offered to the city for “not less than $10-million.” see STATE SCHOOL page 12

GILMANTON — The Frates family is flying to Atlanta next week to participate in a filming of Family Feud, a television game show which has been aired since 1976 and is currently hosted by Steve Harvey. There’s a chance that the family will be contestants on the show, broadcast on national television and playing for a chance to win cash prizes.

Gilmanton artist and Laconia creative arts studio owner Larry Frates has his oldest daughter to thank for the experience.

Tekla Frates, oldest daughter of Larry and Joan, saw an invitation for entrants and wrote a letter to the show’s producers. In the letter, said Larry, Tekla “explained what our family was like.” Producers were intrigued enough that the Frates were invited to an audition session held at see FRATES page

MEREDITH — The Board of Selectmen last night voted unanimously to request the Zoning Board of Adjustment to reconsider its reaffirmation of an earlier decision to grant a variance allowing a commercial

After meeting privately with legal counsel prior to a workshop session, the Selectboard listened to Chuck Braxton and Duncan McNeish, two residents who have

Groomer’s slaying a Kentucky Derby whodunit

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — The bourbon had been stashed away and the hats returned to closets by the time someone found a groomer’s body inside a barn at Churchill Downs, hours after the running of America’s most famous horse race.

Other workers on the backside of the track — a different world from the pageantry seen on race day — were left to wonder if a killer was among them: Why did someone want 48-year-old Adan Fabian Perez dead?

How was the Guatemala native killed? And why did his killer leave him in a barn, a few stables away from where I’ll Have Another would bask in the glory of winning the Kentucky Derby?

Authorities have no suspects.An autopsy was done, but the coroner refused to release the results.

Jo-Ann Farmer, chief deputy coroner in Louisville, said an autopsy revealed injuries on a body found in a barn at Churchill Downs at about 4:50 a.m. EDT Sunday, roughly 10 hours after the race.

CIA said to have stopped ‘undetectable’ al-Qaida bomb plot WASHINGTON (AP) — The CIA thwarted an ambitious plot by al-Qaida’s affiliate in Yemen to destroy a U.S.-bound airliner using a bomb with a sophisticated new design around the one-year anniversary of the killing of Osama bin Laden, U.S. officials said Monday.

The plot involved an upgrade of the underwear bomb that failed to detonate aboard a jetliner over Detroit on Christmas 2009. This new bomb was also designed to be used in a passenger’s underwear, but this time alQaida developed a more refined detonation

system, U.S. officials said.

The FBI is examining the latest bomb to see whether it could have passed through airport security and brought down an airplane, officials said. They said the device did not contain metal, meaning it probably could have passed through an airport metal detector. But it was not clear whether new body scanners used in many airports would have detected it.

Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., who heads the Senate Intelligence Committee, told reporters Monday that she had been

briefed about an “undetectable” device that was “going to be on a U.S.-bound airliner.”

There were no immediate plans to change security procedures at U.S. airports.

The would-be suicide bomber, based in Yemen, had not yet picked a target or bought a plane ticket when the CIA stepped in and seized the bomb, officials said. It’s not immediately clear what happened to the alleged bomber.

White House spokeswoman Caitlin Hayden said President Barack Obama learned about see AL-QAIDA page 14

PARIS (AP) — The day after Francois Hollande rode to power in France on a slogan of “change now,” the conversation in Europe was already different Monday: Austerity had become a dirty word.

What replaces it, though, was anything but clear.

The newly powerful in France and Greece want to roll back the spending cuts and tax increases that have defined Europe’s response to its 3-year-old debt crisis. But

campaign rhetoric is likely to prove more extreme than any real-world reversal of the budget tightening.

World financial markets took Europe’s latest round of political upheaval in stride, convulsing early and then recovering. The continent’s uncertain future — including the possibility of Greece leaving the euro — was causing anxiety but not panic about the threat to the global economy.

But there is hardly unity in Europe.

Sunday night, Socialist president-elect Hollande celebrated his victory over Nicolas Sarkozy by vowing, “Austerity can no longer be inevitable!”

On Monday, German Chancellor Angela Merkel gently pushed back.

She rejected Hollande’s call to renegotiate a treaty signed last month on tougher action to control government deficits. “We in Germany, and I personally,” she said, see EUROPE page 17

KENOSHA, Wis. (AP) — The leading Democratic candidates in the race to take on Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker in a historic recall election made their final pitches to voters Monday, touting their records while steering clear of any last-minute attacks

on each other or the first-term Republican governor.

Walker, who faces only token opposition in Tuesday’s primary, wasn’t campaigning on Monday. He had a full slate of events on Tuesday, culminating with a speech to

party faithful in a Republican stronghold near Milwaukee.

Walker has emerged as a national conservative hero since his successful push to end nearly all collective bargaining rights see WALKER page 17

Illinois Ponzi scheme fugitives caught in Arizona

TONOPAH, Ariz. (AP) — Nelson and Janet Hallahan were known around working-class Peoria, Ill., for their wealth, and flashed it. That, residents said, may have helped make their get-rich-quick scheme all the more believable.

Their scheme was anything but real. They had bilked investors out of $1.2 million and were destined for two prison cells. Except, just before they were supposed to report to jail, the couple skipped town 12 years ago.

They were finally captured Saturday in a sleepy Arizona desert town, where they lived in separate homes, introduced each other as friends, not spouses, did odd jobs and would eat out on 99-cent “Taco Tuesdays.”

Authorities, acting on a tip from “America’s Most Wanted,” arrested the Hallahans in Tonopah, about 50 miles west of Phoenix.

“They were staying off the grid, living in a rural area, not really having things in their names,” said Matt Hershey, a supervisory deputy U.S. marshal in Phoenix. “They were just trying to lay low.”

In court Monday, the couple, their wrists and ankles shackled, agreed to be extradited to Illinois.

Mike Waters, a Peoria attorney whose late uncle Jim Waters was among the Hallahans’ victims, said he plans to be there when the couple next appears in an Illinois courtroom.

“These were working class people of modest means who invested their entire life savings,” he said of the victims. “Most of them were retired and didn’t have much chance to recover.”

Like all Ponzi schemes, the Hallahans promised significant returns on investments and paid early investors with money they received from newer ones, authorities said.

In the 1990s, the sight of Janet Hallahan in her expensive clothes and jewelry didn’t bother residents and may have helped sell their scheme because everybody could see how well the couple was doing, Waters said, who represented his uncle, a former postal worker, in a victims’ lawsuit after the Hallahans filed for bankruptcy.

It later became shockingly clear what they were doing and what it had cost their victims. “While they were doing all this extravagant stuff they were wiping out people making $30,000, $40,000 a year,” see PONZI page 11

UNH campus alerted after dorm room sex assault

DURHAM (AP) — The University of New Hampshire police department is investigating a report that a student was sexually assaulted in her dorm room by a stranger.

University spokeswoman Erika Mantz said the student reported being assaulted around 3:30 a.m.

Sunday in Stoke Hall. The victim did not know the assailant, whom she described as dark skinned with dark hair and wearing a dark shirt.

Authorities have not said whether the victim was injured. No arrests have been made, and UNH police released no further details Monday. They encourage

anyone with information to contact the UNH Police Department at 862-1427.

The campus community was notified of the assault through an emergency text message as required under the federal Clery Act, a campus crime-reporting law. According to the most recent statistics collected under that law, there were 48 reports of forcible sexual assault at campuses across the state in 2010, including 12 at the University of New Hampshire, the state’s largest university with approximately 15,000 students. That was up from eight in 2008 and 10 in 2009.

Grafton County officials mark completion of new jail

NORTH HAVERHILL, N.H. (AP) — Officials in New Hampshire’s Grafton County hope to be able to start housing inmates at the county’s new, 150-bed jail by summer.

On Sunday officials marked the completion of the new Grafton County Department of Corrections jail, next to the courthouse in North Haverhill.

The $33 million jail has been under construction for

two years. It will eventually employ about 40 people.

The Caledonian Record reports the facility includes housing for minimum, medium and maximum security inmates as well as segregation housing, mental health and protective custody housing.

There are also classrooms.

The existing county jail was built in 1896 and has a capacity of 75 inmates.

This May Be the Best Deal Since Napkins

What if you could buy Insurance under the following terms?

• You pay a single premium (rather than pay annual premiums).

• That premium earns interest that accrues to your benefit.

• If you never use the Insurance, then you can take the premium back, plus interest.

• If you die with the Insurance, then your beneficiaries receive more than you deposited.

• If you need the Insurance, then the premium you paid purchases you a substantial benefit to cover your expenses.

In other words, if you don’t need the Insurance, you get back at least the amount paid.

If you do need the Insurance, it’s there for you. This is called “linked benefit policy”.

Thousands of seniors are using it to obtain coverage for long-term care, knowing that if they don’t use it, the premium can be withdrawn by them or the policy will pay off to their heirs as a tax-free death benefit.

Heads you win, tails you win!

If you’d like to see an illustration for your own situation and you do not already have long-term care coverage, contact a long-term care professional to obtain an illustration.

Are We a Nation of Sheep?

Often, people ask me what they should do to pay for long-term care costs. I recently met with a gentleman who had obtained a long-term care policy. He questioned me whether he needed it. This gentleman was a successful businessman and an astute thinker.

I explained to him “It’s not you who is overlooking something; it is they who are ignoring a serious issue”.

Unfortunately, many investors feel best about a financial move when everyone else is making the same move. In our culture, we have a saying, “There is safety in numbers”. However, lynch mobs, radical groups, and sub-culture factions are also “numbers” of people banding together to create chaos and bedlam. Unfortunately, there can often be ignorance and foolishness in numbers.

Whether others are acting to protect themselves does not alter the facts: • 43 of every 100 people age 65 or over will have a need for long-term care assistance, either in the home or a facility outside the home.

• 83% of these cases will be serious-requiring care of four months or longer.

Lastly, compare the chance of this risk to the chance that your home will burn down or that your car will be totaled. Despite the odds, you would never think of leaving these risks uninsured. If you are over the age of 65 and have not investigated your options for handling the risks of long-term care, please contact me or call for a free copy of The Long-Term Care Buyers Guide.

LETTERS

Leo R. Sandy

The parenting of Nazis Some time ago I wrote about the authoritarian personality and received more angry letters to that column than to any other column I have written since. It is as if I hit a nerve with all the local authoritarians most of whom are people on the far right. Recently I watched a powerful documentary called “Inheritance” — a story about Monika Hertwig, the daughter of a death camp commandant who later in life met Helen Jonas, a Jewish house slave whom her father kept and who witnessed horrific incidents of brutality inflicted by this commandant of Plaszow concentration camp in Poland whose name was Amon Goeth. In one of her conversations with Monika, Helen asked her if something really bad had happened to her father as a child that made him become such a monster. Since Monika was very young when her father was committing sadistic acts on Jewish prisoners, she did not have the wherewithal to answer this question (http://www. nowpublic.com/world/inheritancedocumentary-film-tells-story-nazisdaughter). The question that Helen asked peaked my interest and I pursued the topic further.

I have known all along that authoritarian parents are over-controlling, demanding and restricting, express little affection and tend to use coercive and power-assertive disciplinary measures such as hitting and threatening. Children raised by such parents do not learn to think for themselves (I was only following orders) and tend to adopt a kiss up/kick down stance toward others. They easily submit to authority but treat people beneath them with contempt and cruelty.

I also had read that child rearing before and up to World War II in Germany was very harsh and punitive. Children were often beaten at home and at school as corporal punishment was widely practiced.

Thus, I had always suspected that there was a connection between coercive discipline and readiness to engage in violence later on in life.

In a paper written by Mary Katherine Armstrong, entitled “Child abuse, shame, rage and violence”, she stated that “Whether it is a question of adolescent gang violence, adults fighting in a bar, wife and child abuse, or acts of terrorism, the origins of violence lie in abusing and shaming children” (http:// primal-page.com/childabu.htm).

Unlike guilt that makes people beat up on themselves (internalizing disorder), shame causes people to beat up on others (externalizing disorder). When parents uses conditional acceptance of children but still love them, children want to please their parents to an excess and feel badly when they don’t meet their parents’ expectations. In the

extreme, anxiety, depression and suicide are likely outcomes. Parents who reject, overly punish, and demean their children, on the other hand, have children who want to lash out at others. Sometimes they may even kill their own children, spouses and parents.

Armstrong reported on brain research that shows how exposure to early stress can result in a brain that is oriented toward survival rather than compassion. Thus, the flight/fight response is on hair trigger ready to respond to danger. In a nurturing environment, however, children’s brains develop very differently and such children have the potential to develop empathy, interpersonal skills and creativity.

Besides being raised in a culture of war long before WW II erupted, German children were subject to intense shaming and rigid upbringing. Their parents were influenced

by Dr. Daniel Gottlieb Moritz Schreber, a prominent German doctor, and self-proclaimed expert on child psychology who recommended that the “newborn baby...should be drilled from the very first day to obey and refrain from crying. Master the crying baby through frightening it, and you will be master of the child forever. From then on, a glance, a word, a single threatening gesture will be sufficient to control the child” (http://primal-page.com/childabu. htm). At the same time, parents were warned not to express any affection toward their children. Obedience was the rule and young German children, especially boys, learned their lessons well. Stern parenting combined with a lack of love leads to repressed rage which craves an outlet. Armstrong noted that “This shame/rage/violence cycle clearly played itself out when Germans who had been traumatized in childhood took out their rage on Jews and others who reminded them of themselves when they were helpless children. They projected onto others all their own “bad” qualities which they had never been able to accept in themselves. Jews became dirty, greedy schemers, plotting to overthrow the rightful authorities.

Concentration camp guards had the perfect opportunity to restage their own childhood traumas. Prisoners were helpless to defend themselves or to escape. Their captors, urged on by the state, indulged in humiliating defenseless Jews. In fact, every German’s repetition compulsion seems to have found place in the hierarchy of terror which characterized the Nazi period. Men who had once been shamed as children now had the opportunity to demand of others the cadaver-like obedience their fathers had exacted. They, in turn, gave automatic, unthinking obedience to their masters in the see next page

Let’s strive to see the good in our youth & Wyatt Park BB courts To the editor, I have lived in Laconia area my whole life, almost 38 years. The basketball courts at Wyatt Park have been there as long as I have been; I have used them; my friends have used them; some even went to college with basketball scholarships. When I was younger, living in an apartment while my mother was working two and three jobs to save and buy a home of her own, my brother and I would go to the courts. We lived on Blueberry Lane, not much to do there except get into trouble; we opted for basketball. I now manage my husband’s family’s business that is apartment rentals. A lot of our tenants live on a fixed income; their children rely on the park and the teens on the basketball courts. If we do not keep our kids active and involved, then all that is left is to GET IN TROUBLE. My kids have been going to the park alone for some time. I have friends that live directly around the park and not once has any one offered them drugs, tried to fight with them or have they seen anyone doing any drugs. I understand the older kids probably swear as I am sure my kids probably swear at the park and I am pretty sure when I was not around my mom, I swore too! They are kids, kids are loud, they swear when not

in earshot of their parents, they drop their garbage on the ground if it is not very convenient for them to do otherwise (although I have witnessed on multiple occasions groups of kids rounding up before they leave and go around and pick up trash, not even their own), but all-in-all those basketball courts serve a very important role in our community! They offer stress release, socialization, support, skill development and for some, a chance to achieve their dreams.

Let’s strive to see the good in our youth and the basketball courts. How about organized 3-on-3 tournaments, three point contests or slam dunk contests. Involve the community and those who serve the community. My whole point is, let’s make solutions to help stop ANY problems, signs inside the courts that establish ground rules.

To clean up trash, put the cans inside in all four corners. We have cameras on the stop lights why not one at the parks? Bike police do a bit more patrolling — ANYTHING but take more away from our children; there is not really much for them as it is!

Please go to the meeting at the Community Center on May 10 (7 p.m.) in support of the basketball courts at Wyatt Park.

We’ll continue to push for responsible loon protection laws To the editor, On Tuesday, May 1, the House Fish and Game and Marine Resources Committee referred SB-224, a bill to increase protections of loons from (the metal) lead fishing tackle, to interim study. The referral to interim study means the bill will not be passed this legislative session. Pending the concurrence of the full House, the Fish and Game and Marine Resources Committee will convene a sub-committee over the summer to debate and issue a report with recommendations on how best to address this problem.

Committee Chair, Representative Cliff Newton, who made the motion to send SB-224 to interim study, went to great lengths to assure his committee and the public in attendance that the issue of lead killing loons was too important to be decided without more time for his committee to more fully understand the facts and the range of possible solutions. Also noted as a significant factor in this outcome was

the opposition of the New Hampshire Fish and Game Commission to the bill as amended by the Senate.

Throughout this process, the New Hampshire Lakes Association (NH LAKES) and the Loon Preservation Committee (LPC) worked to bring the results of peer-reviewed research to light to encourage informed discussion of this important issue for loons and other wildlife. We welcome the opportunity to once again present our findings to members of the study committee and answer their questions about this critical problem for our loons. NH LAKES and LPC will be active participants in the study committee process and continue to encourage responsible actions that protect our loons and other wildlife from lead fishing tackle.

What’s your objection to keeping dead people from voting?

To the editor, What world is Kent Warner living in? He pretends to be in N.H., where voter ID has been essential for many years, NEVER restricting anyone from voting, but then shows his total ignorance by saying voter ID will restrict some people from voting! YES, he IS correct: it WILL restrict illegals, dead people, those never born, and others from voting many times. What is his objection to that? Oh, it might

stop Obama from stealing another election, as he did the last. Thus it is obvious Kent Warner wants Obama to STEAL the next election.

At least Kent is not bashful about his dishonesty, and warns us all to insist on voter ID in all states, or for those that refuse, election results must NOT be approved until EVERY vote is proven to be legal.

LETTERS FRM victims will never forget & never be quiet about the cover up To the editor, It is very disheartening to know that Governor Lynch, former Attorney Generals Kelly Ayotte (and Richard Head), former Banking Commissioner Peter Hildreth, who were involved in the cover-up of the biggest Ponzi scheme in N.H., do not have the integrity to admit that they did not carry out the duties that we as N.H. citizens depended on to protect us. The attorney general’s office under Kelly Ayotte and Richard Head had received several criminal complaints about FRM and Peter Hildreth documented 70 violations. Neither agency took the initiative to take action against FRM, but tried to minimize their responsibility and to spread the blame.

Kelly Ayotte is now our United States Senator; I hope she watches out for us better in her new job. Peter Hildreth was allowed by Governor Lynch to retire with full benefits. He should be in jail with Scott Farrah. Richard Head who almost got promoted to a better job but because of complaints brought forth by some victims, he didn’t get the job. Mark Connelly, the head of Securities, was offered a better job because he knew too much about the cover up under Governor Lynch and he had the integrity and honesty to refuse the job and try to help some of the victims by bringing forth what was going on. Other members of Securities, Jeff Spill, Kevin Moquin, Barry Glennon, Carvel Jeff, and Bill Masuck also exhibited professionalism while

under fire from Governor Lynch.

It is very sad that so many of us who had the utmost faith in our government have been let down by our state government. Several of the FRM victims have lost their life savings, their homes, their health insurance, and two victims have been despondent enough to take their own lives. Many of these victims are elderly and have nowhere else to turn.

I know for a fact that our family members who got swindled by FRM checked thoroughly before lending any money and were told that there were no problems pending with FRM — LIES, LIES, LIES! Who can one who wants to do business in N.H. turn to get an honest answer before lending or investing their money? Watch your government employees closely because some of them who are still in state office are not looking out for you. I worked in Human Services for 45 years and thought it was great to be able to shake hands with our honorable governor, but since then, I have found out he is not so honorable and I honestly believe that he is not running for governor again because he does not like confrontational issues and FRM will never go away because we, as victims, will never forget and never be quiet about the cover up of the N.H. government and their refusal to right the wrong done by them to so many victims of N.H. and surrounding states.

State School property should be used for wildlife rehab center To the editor, The City of Laconia should purchase the former State School property and continue to use the land as conservation. Why would Laconia want a developer to come in and put up more cookie cutter houses, or worse yet another shopping plaza or pharmacy! It would be ideal if the Belknap County Jail was moved to

Boscawen or Concord so it can merge with the State Prison. Laconia could use that land for a wildlife rehabilitation center and preserve conservation.

I wouldn’t mind paying taxes on a good cause, money has been spent on so many other foolish things.

from preceding page Third Reich’s hierarchy of command.”

Armstrong went on to discuss the brutal beatings given to Hitler by his father. Hitler was later given to attacks of rage, and the “shame of Versailles” was the coup de grace that found its expression in the holocaust.

The dynamic is seen in the reversal of felt inferiority. In one of his speeches, Hitler said about German youth, “His whole education and training must be so ordered as to give him the conviction that he is absolutely superior to others.” Armstrong concluded her paper by raising some important questions: Just suppose someone had stopped the father from brutally beating his son? What if Hitler had somehow faced the rage he felt, instead of playing it out in the world? What if he had acknowledged his shame, instead of launching into his compulsive schemes for wiping out others?

As humans, we restage our childhood stories out in the world. In Germany where the rule of the father was abso-

lute, where you had to love your father no matter how he humiliated you, the results stand clear to be seen by us all. When it comes to child rearing, we reap what we sow.”

There seems to be a lesson unlearned here. When I read about the fanatical obsession and indiscriminate violence of fundamentalist Muslims and their American counterparts preoccupied with anti-Muslim fear and hatred that has been generalized to all immigrants — legal and illegal — I wonder how similar their childhoods might have been. I also muse about how as a world culture, the only way we can stop fear, hatred, bigotry and violence is to raise children in a more humane way, especially boys. It may be a slow, progressive process, but until we do, we will not be able to abolish war and establish social justice.

To the editor, I have to give L.J. Siden credit for trying really hard to be even handed in his assessment of Bob Meade’s column last week. He was correct in his assessment that President Bush was vilified by the left as being divisive for perceived and actual failed domestic and war policies. There certainly is much to criticize President Obama for on that front as well. What separates this president of the United States from the previous one is his divisive class warfare rhetoric pitting rich vs. poor, black vs. white, minorities vs. whites, Christians vs. secularists, one percent vs. 99-percent, women vs. men and a socialist favorite, picking winners and losers. There is volumes of evidence that L.J. can’t deny unless suffering from POD (politics of delusion).

Then L.J. claims that Republicans are perpetuating the notion that President Obama is a socialist. One has to wonder just how L.J. would classify our president. I’ll give her/him the benefit of the doubt by assuming this person from Gilmanton is simply guileless. Perhaps I can assist L.J. in overcoming his apparent naivete.

President Obama’s two autobiographies are loaded with references as to his Marxist and/or Leninist leanings.

He has recently said that he wants to redistribute the wealth and that “fairness” trumps economic prosperity as I mentioned in a recent letter. He also asserted, “I do think at a certain point, you’ve made enough money”. I presume, socialists with their perceived superior intellect would accurately and “fairly” decide what that level would be. There are so many more references easily found should L.J. be desirous of some objectivity.

Since President Obama has been in campaign mode for the past year (102 fund raisers in past 12 months exceeding past five presidents aggregate total of 94), let me sight those he has picked to run the government while he has been “hors de combat”. Van Jones and Anita Dunn, hired, fired and now, “they’re back”! Valerie Jarrett, his top advisor and fellow member of the Chicago thugocracy. Plus the following czars: Richard Holbrook, Donald Berwick, Ron Bloom, Lynn Rosenthal, Daniel Fried, Nancy-Ann Deparle, Todd Stern, Dennis Blair, Kenneth Feinberg, Cass Sunstein, John Holdren, Herb Allison, Aneesh Chopra, Carol Browner, Adolfo Carrion Jr, Ashton Carter, Gary Samore and oh so many more. Google them L.J. if you

please. Or you can trust me when I tell you that every one of them has anticapitalist, pro-socialist leanings and some of them are flat out communists.

President Obama is an admitted disciple of Saul Alinsky and a devoted reader of Columbia professors’ Richard Cloward and Frances Fox Piven.

Frank Marshall Davis, childhood mentor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright and current spiritual advisor, Jim Wallis all detest capitalism and lust for a “Socialist States of America”. Our President admits to being chummy with Marxist/Leninist types during his mysterious, college years. President Obama and Nancy Pelosi adore the Occupy Wall Street movement who have the following affiliations: Communist Party USA, Democratic Socialists of America and Fight for Socialism. The American Nazi Party has endorsed this movement. This gleaned from a May 2 column by Walter Williams who also notes the following: “The movement is also supported by White House leftist allies such as the Working Families Party, SEIU — as well as other labor unions — ACORN, the New Party and the Democratic National Committee.”

President Obama laments how our Constitution is a document of “negative liberties” meant to limit the power and scope of a central government.

Our dear leader has been busy “fundamentally transforming” this country using untold executive orders and a cadre of central planners in an effort to control our lives in every way imaginable. With factual information and actual quotes, I have only scratched the surface of the socialist mindset of our president. Yet L.J. claims Republicans are trying to perpetuate the notion that our president is a socialist as if it is all made up nonsense.

President Obama has “The Audacity of Hope”. You, L.J., might just want to pen, “The Audacity of Grope”, because man you are grasping at illogical straws hoping no one will notice your letters’ gargantuan flaws. You and other like minded liberal/socialist/ progressive/statist types have been put on notice. Conservative types are sick and tired of your verbal trickery and condescending attitude and we’re going to continue to point out the myriad ways you all try to change history to suit your freedom sucking utopian ideals. I am one concerned citizen and I am definitely paying attention.

Under Obama, the U.S. workforce has shrunk to 1980’s size To the editor, The decline in the April unemployment rate from 8.2 to 8.1-percent is the result of President Obama’s policies which destroy rather than create jobs. In April almost three times as many people got discouraged and left the labor force (342,000) as got jobs (115,000), this is nothing to celebrate.

Two factors affect the unemployment rate. First, the number of net new jobs (new jobs minus lost jobs).

Second, the workforce size (the number of people working or looking for work). The unemployment rate declines when net new jobs increases,

when the workforce shrinks, or both.

Workforce size is important. Under President Obama the workforce has shrunk to its smallest since the 1980s.

If the workforce were the same size today as when President Obama was inaugurated, the current unemployment rate would be 11.1-percent.

The 342,000 workers who left the labor force found no replacement for their lost job. These people and their families now wonder how they will survive, can they stay in their home, how to give their children the opportunities they planned, how to provide see next page

LETTERS Young minds are corrupted & used to further nation’s destruction To the editor, Judges, professors and legislators have the opportunity to stand upon the shoulders of giants but have chosen to hide behind mental shrimps who themselves bask in the darkness of glorified ignorance.

“Most men occasionally stumble over the truth, but they pick themselves up and continue on as if nothing had happened.” — Winston Churchill.

The serious consequences of our slothful disregard for our Constitution has created a situation within this country that we may never recover from.

Withholding the truth has become necessary in order to perpetrate lies.

Our heritage has all but been removed in text books. Colleges are infected with the degeneracy of Marxism .

Young minds are corrupted and used as tools to further the destruction of our nation.

Truth is always forbidden when tyrants reign. It will be subdued in

order that the masses will feel secure in their servitude. We have not been taking our enemy seriously enough.

Their technique has changed slightly.

It appears they are more friendly. Their promises are immense. They will take care of us. Feed us. Clothe us. Give us employment no matter how meager.

We have only to measure the content of their rhetoric, and those he surrounds himself with. His wasteful extravagance of taxpayer’s money.

The hiding of his past. Glossing over his mismanagement. We have traveled down the soul destroying road to socialism and the view is not promising. The hope promised was but a slogan to catch the ignorant unprepared. It worked and many fell for the lights, speeches and gimmicks.

Four more years of the same will not fix this country, it will be four more years of destroying.

Bob Lamb has the ability to identify problems before public does To the editor, How exciting and encouraging to read Holderness resident, Bob Lamb, is running to represent Senate District 2 in November. Exciting because a man of his integrity and extensive accomplishments is eager to serve, and encouraging because we now have a candidate capable of representing all constituents in Senate District 2, due to his firsthand life experiences.

Bob comes from humble beginnings, one of eight children, but able to live the American dream through his commitment to hard work, family sacrifices, getting a great education, the opportunity to serve in the military and give back to his country, and culminating in his position as chief financial officer of Fleet Bank in Boston. Bob has the life experience New Hampshire needs.

That said, what impresses me most is rather than rest on his laurels, now retired, he remains humble, with an

agenda that includes working collaboratively to solve problems that make New Hampshire a better place for everyone to live, not just those in the 1-percent. Senate District 2 and New Hampshire needs elected officials with critical thinking skills and pro-active leadership experience that demonstrates independent thought and the ability to identify problems before the public does. Jumping on the bandwagon after the train has left the station is not admirable, it is safe.

Senate District 2 constituents deserve more confident and comprehensive representation in Concord.

Bob Lamb’s life experience demonstrates he is extremely well qualified to meet those needs. I look forward to casting my vote for Bob Lamb in November and hope with his help we can restore the New Hampshire way of life we all remember and value.

What austerity? Euro governments cave in to union riots & chaos To the editor, I couldn’t help but notice that James Veverka’s letter in today’s (Thursday) paper tries to link Republicans with fascism. That’s an old communist trick, but it’s also a bucket full.

Fascists, like communists, are big, central, totalitarian government proponents. Republicans are for small central government, the Constitution, capitalism, free enterprise, jobs, and a strong economy. You know all those things that oppress poor James. Now of course Jimmy isn’t averse to taking advantage of one of those hated corporations, working as he does for one. I just have to wonder how he would get from preceding page for their old age, etc.

President Obama’s re-election team celebrates the lower unemployment rate. But, that number hides millions of suffering Americans who cannot find jobs because of President Obama’s policies.

Don Ewing Meredith

along if that didn’t exist? How would he earn the money which pays for his home, food, car and such?

As for austerity in Greece, Portugal, and wherever, not working I have to ask, what austerity? Every time their leaders even bring up the subject the union goons riot, burn, loot and create chaos. Damage in the millions and because the parties in power are socialist they cave in to the intimidation tactics. Germany, Poland and the few of the rest that are still solvent are going to again bail them out but for how much longer? Even they will soon be faced with the alternative of saving smaller socialist countries or saving themselves. Wonder who they will look to to bail them out then/ again? Well readers I bet if you guess the American taxpayer, you’ll be right.

Dr. Natalie Accomando

To the editor, I read your letter Mr. Ewing in yesterday’s paper (May 2) and now I would like to ask you a few questions.

Do you think people in the poverty level got up in the morning and said things like: I’m going to work today and hope I get laid off. I want to have a medical problem that incapacitates me so I can no longer work. I want to have to borrow/deplete my 401K and/ or bank accounts to pay the co-pays and fees my health insurance doesn’t cover fighting this medical problem and trying to stay alive. I want to develop a cancer that is going to cause me to die slowly because I can’t afford the screening because Planned Parenthood was dismantled. I want to live in my car. I want to go to DHHS and apply for help and made to feel like a charity case. I want to stand in the food pantry line in the cold, snow and rain to get some food once a month.

These are real questions that many people have faced and will continue to face and have led to ending up in the poverty level.

I honestly think the Tea Party/ Republicans have no idea why people end up in poverty but what I do know is they certainly are not doing a thing to help people get out of poverty. They think the way to end poverty is by ignoring it and cutting any and all programs that help people to survive.

Obviously, Republicans don’t understand or care because they cut cut cut and make people’s lives as hard as possible. It is easy to pick on those who can’t fight back.

If Romney becomes president and the Ryan plan (nothing more then the old Bush plan that got the USA in this mess to start with) comes to be, people in poverty may as well forever forget getting a fair chance to succeed.

While waiting for jobs to materialize they will lose most of the help they get to exist. For instance: under the Ryan plan there would be a 30-percent cut in food stamps. That would mean that the $6 per day allowance for food for one person would be cut to $4 per day.

I am sure Mr. Ryan and Mr. Romney spend more then that every morning on coffee and doughnuts. So people, to make up for this cut, will end up choosing whether to eat or pay the rent.

Not all people in poverty get Section 8 help and this too is a program the Ryan plan will cut so more and more people will not get subsidized housing or may lose what they have now.

Many will end up getting evicted and living in cars. We have enough doing that already. This plan will also get rid of Planned Parenthood so women in poverty will no longer be able to have cancer screenings and get preventa-

tive care so they’ll go without needed care and tumors will grow to the point they are no longer curable. Are Republicans willing to take responsibility for the women who will die because they couldn’t afford to pay for a screening and the care they will not be able to get? Of course Republicans wouldn’t take responsibility because some of these people actually think women can get these screenings at Walgreen’s or CVS. They actually said that! Shows how unaware they are of poverty issues. You have to pay if you don’t have insurance and if you can’t afford to pay your rent where do they think people will get money to pay for screenings. Besides that the pharmacies do not do mammogram’s or pelvic screenings among many other medical services they do not provide.

So please explain to me Mr. Ewing why the Tea Party/Republicans hate people in poverty so much and are so bent set on making these people and their families lives worse then they are now. Explain how these Tea Party/ Republicans can claim to be Christian and have so little regard for the poor?

Have they forgot about loving thy neighbor?

Before you sit down to berate me for writing this let me tell you that I am one of those people who lives within the poverty levels. Not because I want to be here but because of a medical condition that put me here. I worked for 45+ years and was totally self-sufficient. I paid for my education, raised my son, worked every day. Never asked for help. So, I know what I am talking about! I am not telling you this because I want your concern. Mr. life is what it is. I just want you to try to understand that things happen and change an entire life and who better to do that then someone who has gone through this change.

And please don’t try to tell me the Republicans will make it better because all they have done for the past 3 1/2 years is block every bill that would have created jobs or improved the tax structure and deficit. Why? Because they had to protect the interests of their rich friends. How? At the expense of those who can’t afford to fight back.

So for all those people who seem to think people in poverty are lazy and just looking for a handout please go to a local homeless shelter or to a Food Pantry (when food is being passed out and I know of four in Laconia) or just check out doorways in buildings and cars parked in parking garages at night. Talk to these people and see how they got where they are. NO ONE WANTS TO LIVE IN POVERTY! Nancy Parsons Laconia

from preceding page vacation, full medical, and retire at 55, and we’re expected to bail them out once again. B.S. let the lazy people go back to work and give American

workers, who have been subsidizing them since 1945, a break.

Legion unveils new banners to fly over Belmont Village

BY MIKE MORTENSEN FOR THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

BELMONT — Red, white and blue banners will soon be hanging from utility poles along main roads leading into Belmont Village thanks to the generosity of individuals and businesses who contributed to a fund-raising effort launched by the local American Legion Post.

Post Commander Robert Stevens said that more than $2,000 had been raised by the campaign run

by Charles Kilborn Post 58 in Belmont. He said that money would pay for the purchase of at least a dozen banners which feature a stylized version of the American flag.

“I thought we might raise maybe $1,500,” said Stevens, who with Post Vice Commander Woodbury Fogg unfurled one of the banners for Selectmen Jon Pike and Ruth Mooney to see before the start of the business portion of Monday’s selectmen’s meeting.

Stevens presented selectmen with a framed certificate from the Legion Post honoring those who donated to the effort. He said the amounts of the individual donations ranged from $20 to $300. The certificate will now be displayed in Town Hall.

Stevens said the banners will be displayed along Routes 106 and 140 in the town center. He said the plan is to have the banners up by Memorial Day, May 28. see next page

FRATES from page one Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, Conn. A few days later, the Frates received notice that they had been selected to attend the taping later this month.

Tekla, although she was the one who got her family members involved, won’t take part because of complications of her employment. Instead, the team will include Larry and Joan, their son Oliver, their daughter Amelia and her husband Lyall.

Until they participate in the taping, they won’t know if their family will be on the Feud. Even then, they won’t be allowed to discuss the specifics of their experience until after the show has aired. With that in mind, the family is planning to have a good time — and is hoping to keep the idiosyncratic Larry from causing too much of a stir.

“We’re going down to have fun,” said Larry. “It’s strange and exciting. Amelia was more concerned about what I might wear on the show.”

Amelia is serving as the team captain. She said, referring to her father, who is often seen performing in the Laconia area as a cartoon artist or magician.

“He’s not allowed to wear his checkered jacket. That

was a family thing, we were like, ‘Dad, that’s not a good idea for this one.’”

Family Feud is an unusual contest in that it challenges contestants to predict what the results will be of surveys administered to the general population. For example, one challenge the family was presented with at Foxwoods was to name birds that can’t fly. One acceptable answer was flamingo.

Although that bird can indeed take to the skies, enough respondents gave that answer when given a survey.

To try and prepare for the game, the Frates have been busy practicing with board game and electronic versions of the game, and by watching episodes when they air.

“I think we’re going to have fun, I have no idea how we’re going to do,” said Amelia. “We had fun just going to the audition.”

Still, she admitted to harboring a bit of anxiety about appearing on television with the unpredictable and creative Larry. “We’re all just hoping that he doesn’t whip out something bizarre he has up his sleeve, literally,” she said. “We’re hoping he doesn’t try to upstage Steve Harvey,” she joked.

from preceding page In the business portion of the meeting, selectmen took under advisement information from Town Administrator Jeanne Beaudin regarding the possibility of switching its property liability and worker’s compensation insurance coverage to a different carrier.

Presently the town’s liability and worker’s comp coverage is provided through the Local Government Center. But Beaudin told selectmen that competing carrier Primex is offering to provide the coverage at a premium savings of $19,000 the first year. But the deal would obligate the town to sign a three-year non-revocable contract, with a stipulation that the annual premium increases could not exceed 8-percent for worker’s comp or 7-percent for property liability.

Selectmen Chairman Jon Pike acknowledged that the $19,000 savings in premiums the first year was substantial. But he wondered if that figure was “the carrot” to get Belmont to switch carriers and that with the potential increases in premiums in the second and third years, the overall savings might not be that significant.

Pike said he was also worried that if Belmont left the LGC insurance pool it might forfeit any rebate

it could potentially receive arising out of a suit filed by the Secretary of State’s Office which has charged LGC has held on to $100 million excessive premium surplus rather than refunding it to the member communities which have paid into the pool. One part of the suit charges that the LGC skimmed $18-million paid by public members, including Belmont, for health insurance and used it to create a workers’ compensation program to compete with Primex.

In denying the charge, the LGC has said banked the millions of surplus dollars to protect its members in the event of catastrophic claims, while using sound accounting methods to determine how much surplus it’s kept.

Pike directed Beaudin to talk with representatives of other municipalities insured by Primex to see what their experience has been with the insurer.

The board is expected to discuss the matter again at its May 19 meeting.

In other business, the board approved disbursing $600 from a downtown revitalization fund to be used for a movie night to be held in a town park in July.

Beaudin said that Tina Fleming, the town’s special events coordinator, is hoping to arrange the showing on a giant outdoor screen on July 24 or July 28.

Gilford will replace middle & high school boilers at a cost of $260K

BY ROGER AMSDEN FOR THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

GILFORD — The School Board approved spending $260,000 from this year’s budget for the replacement of all four boilers which heat the High School and Middle School.

All four boilers have been experiencing internal cracking and breaking of the cast iron sections located inside the heating chambers, according to Scott Isabelle, assistant superintendent for business, He said that one boiler has had 17 cast iron sections fail and the three others have had multiple sections replaced and that each time a section fails it costs the school district $2,400 to remove it and reconfigure the boiler, whose overall capacity is reduced each time a section is removed.

He said that so far the district has spent over $47,000 on repairs to the boilers, which are no longer under warranty and whose problems are attributed by engineers the school district has worked with to a flawed design, ‘’It’s not a maintenance issue. It’s a flaw in design,’’ said Isabelle, who said that the boilers were slated to be replaced over the next two budget cycles but that the situation appears to be getting worse.

School Board member Kurt Webber wondered if it would be possible to replace two of the boilers and cannibalize the two taken out of service for cast iron sections which could prolong the useful life of the remaining two older boilers.

Isabelle said that could be possible and save as

PONZI from page 3 said Waters, who heard stories of the two walking around town in fur coats.

The Hallahans pleaded guilty to federal charges of conspiracy to commit mail and bank fraud and conspiracy to commit money laundering and then disappeared in January 2000.

The couple lived in several Southwest states under several aliases, authorities said. John Walsh, the host of “America’s Most Wanted,” said the show received multiple tips after it ran a segment Friday.

Hershey said authorities hadn’t determined why they were living in separate homes.

He said investigators hadn’t found evidence suggesting they had run any schemes in recent years.

He said there was no evidence that the pair had obtained gainful employment.

“I had absolutely no idea. If I had known, I would have been first in line to turn them in,” said Harold Clark, who rented a room in his home to Janet Hallahan for more than two years.

When U.S. marshals asked for her, he said he told them they had the wrong house.

much as $100,000 but there was no guarantee that it would work. ‘’The gamble is that if we put the sections back in they can crack again,’’ said Isabelle, who noted that the boiler company no longer manufactures cast iron boiler sections that fit the commercial boilers that the district uses.

He identified four budget accounts from which funds could be drawn for the new boilers: — $102,00 from heating oil savings due to the mild winter; — $58,000 from school transportation costs; the results of savings in special education and athletic transportation costs; — $28,000 from driver education due to fewer sections for that class; — $60,100 from curriculum and professional development and training costs due to federal Title I reimbursements.

Webber asked how that would leave the district with respect to its projected year end fund balance and Isabelle said that there would be at least $517,000 left if the expenditure was approved.

Sue Allen said that she could see the potential for the board being placed in a situation where it would be ‘’spending a lot of money on something we don’t want to.’’

Board Chairman Paul Blandford said that spending the money now would guarantee that the high school had functional boilers for next year and that it would save the district repair costs over the next two years.

The board then voted unanimously for the project,

which will go out to bid soon with work slated to start during the summer and be completed by early fall.

In other business, Superintendent of Schools Kent Hemingway said that the School District had been notified by a letter from Belknap County Superior Court that a suit brought by three local residents to implement an administrative plan that did not include the positions of either superintendent had been dismissed.

The suit had been filed last August by Doug Lambert, Kevin Leandro and David Horvath after the School Board had refused to comply with a petitioned warrant article adopted at the March 2011 School District meeting which called for adopting an administrative plan approved by the New Hampshire Department of Education (DOE) and endorsed by the voters in 1998. The school board had hired Superintendent of Schools Kent Hemingway the day before the issue came before voters at the 2011 meeting.

The School District had argued in court that the article was advisory and non-binding and prevailed in the case.

Board member Webber asked how much the School District had spent defending itself in the lawsuit and Isabelle said the cost was $16,400.

During a public comment section later one member of the public suggested that the school board should examine whether or not to go to court and seek reimbursement from the plaintiffs and suggested that it had been a frivolous lawsuit.

Bank of N.H. donates half a million to LRGHealthcare capital campaign

Welcome to our “dental forum”. As a team of professionals, we would like to provide you with up-to-date dental information.

This week’s topic is Loose Dentures.

MY TEMPORARY FELL Off! Don’t panic. Temporary crowns are made of plastic, and are designed to be flexed off by your dentist. Yours got flexed by chewing, and just came off a little early. I’ll give you some easy steps to follow to solve your “temporary” problem.

The first step is to call your dentist, and leave word that your temporary crown came off. In most cases, it is important to have the temporary secured in place.

The second step is to re-cement the temporary yourself until you can see your dentist. There are two ways to do this: The first way is a harder technique that involves more common materials. The second is and easier and better technique; but not everybody has denture adhesive around the house.

You are at a party, and crunch down on a chip covered with delicious three layer dip. All of a sudden you feel something weird in your mouth. You shudder as you realize you lost the temporary crown on your upper front tooth! Again, don’t panic.

Ask your host for some Vaseline and a couple of Q-tips. Clean and dry the inside of the temporary as best you can. Grab a fresh Q-tip, and use it to butter the inside of the temporary came off of with a dry Q-tip, and quickly place the temporary back on before your saliva can get it wet. This is not an easy technique because it requires you to get something dry in a wet environment.

An easier technique involves the use of denture adhesive. This technique may involve a trip to the pharmacy, as not everyone has denture adhesive around the house. Apply a small amount of denture adhesive to the inside of the temporary. I like powered adhesives for this because they should be applied to a moist surface.

Next, push the temporary onto the shaped tooth. Call your dentist!

Please watch for another oral health topic in next week’s dental forum offered by

Serving the Lakes Region since 1986. NOW ACCEPTING NEW PATIENTS! Gilford Professional Park • 401 Gilford Ave, Suite 245 • Gilford, NH 03249 524-7677

LACONIA — Bank of New Hampshire — until recently Laocnia Savings Bank — announced Monday that it has made a $500,000 contribution towards LRGHealthcare’s “Strengthening the Community’s Well-Being” capital campaign.

“As a true icon with a parallel mission to provide quality service, LRGHealthcare is a staple in this community,” said Mark Primeau, president and CEO of the bank. “We are fortunate to partner with such a dedicated organization. Bank of New Hampshire is committed to our roots here in the Lakes Region and is proud to be New Hampshire’s Local Bank.”

The major focus of the Strengthening the Community’s Well-Being Capital Campaign is to raise the necessary funds, through philanthropic giving, to convert existing Lakes Region General Hospital and Franklin Regional Hospital inpatient rooms to single patient rooms. Renovations will include private bathrooms and showers, family sleep sofas and state-ofthe-art patient lift systems, providing the safest and easiest way to move a patient. Private rooms allow patients the opportunity to sleep better, heal faster and have private discussions with their family and health care providers. In addition to private patient rooms, renovations include a new endoscopy suite at LRGH, updating

medical imaging equipment at Franklin Regional Hospital and Lakes Region General Hospital and expansion of the Emergency Department to accommodate the growing needs of the community.

“Bank of New Hampshire has always stepped up to the plate in supporting important initiatives at LRGHealthcare,” said LRGHealthcare President and CEO Tom Clairmont. “The bank was the first business to donate to our capital campaign — constituting a significant jump-start while motivating others in our community to support.

Bank of New Hampshire is a business role model and we are honored to receive this extremely generous gift.”

For more information on how to support LRGHealthcare’s capital campaign, visit www.lrgh.org.

Bank of New Hampshire was founded in 1831 as Meredith Bridge Savings Bank and then changed its name to Laconia Savings Bank in 1869. In April 2012, the bank changed its name to Bank of New Hampshire to better reflect their statewide presence.

With 21 banking offices throughout New Hampshire and assets exceeding $1 billion, Bank of New Hampshire is the oldest and largest independent bank in the state. For more information, call 1-800-832-0912 or visit www.

STATE SCHOOL from page one The Senate decided to change course after the New Hampshire Department of Transportation appraised the property at $2.16-million and the City Council, after receiving the state’s $10-million offer, authorized City Manager Scott Myers and City Council Matt Lahey (Ward 2) to make a counter offer to purchase the property, along with the Robbie Mills Sports Complex for the appraised value of $2.16-million.

The land the sports complex was built on was leased from the state a decade ago for 99 years.

“For that much money,” said Chandler, “it’s worth more to the state to keep it.”

Furthermore, he said that the sale would require the to relocate a facility housing sexual offenders, who cannot be processed by the criminal justice system, operated by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) at the northern end of the site. The facility consists of two buildings, the so-called superintendent’s residence and physicians cottage. Chandler said that HHS has estimated the cost of relocating the unit at between $700,000 and $1.4-million.

Chandler said that he has no particular use for the site in mind, but noted neither has the city. Last year, a commission convened by the Legislature and chaired by councilor Lahey see next page

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Tuesday, May 8, 2012— Page 13

MEREDITH from page one ders to the ZBA and to recall all other members of the board pending a review of their qualifications.

Town Manager Phil Warren advised the selectmen they had no authority to withdraw their appointments or recall the ZBA. The property at 22 Foundry Avenue, owned by Foundry Avenue Realty Trust, originally consisted of two lots that were merged in 2009. The first, a one-acre parcel fronting on Foundry Avenue in the business and industry district, houses Lakeside Plumbing & Heating and is flanked on the west by Stewart’s Ambulance Service and on the east by Comstock Industries. The second, abutting the first to the north, is a four-acre wooded lot, crossed by a wetland on the east, which lies entirely in the residential district as well as with the Lake Waukewan Watershed Overlay District.. The only access to the residential portion of the property is through the business and industry district.

The owner sought the variance to construct a building on land in the residential district that from preceding page determined that no state department or agency had an interest in developing or using the property.

The sale would be subject to the statute (RSA 4:40) governing the disposal of state property-owned real estate, which stipulates that the property must first be offered to the municipality where it is located and cannot be sold for less than “a current market value.”

The sale would require the approval of the Long Range Capital Planning and Utilization Committee, consisting of members of the legislative and executive branches of government that oversees property owned and leased by the state, and the governor and executive council. Chandler ranks the highest among the four House members on the committee.

Meanwhile, Senator Chuck Morse (R-Salem), the chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, has consistently described the State School property as a “money pit” representing a liability to the state.

There are more than 25 buildings on the large parcel, all in varying degrees of disrepair. Likewise, numerous sources of likely contamination have been identified on the parcel, most within some 62 acres south of Right Way Path where about two-thirds of the buildings are congregated. While the city would qualify for federal funding to assess and address the contamination, the state as the party responsible for it is not. For Morse and his committee the sale to the city offers the best means of shedding a liability.

As the legislative session draws to a close, the relationship between the Senate and the House has soured, raising the prospect that differences may become more difficult to bridge by compromise.

The city has offered to purchase four tax parcels.

The largest, some 200-acres, is bounded by North Main Street to the east, Meredith Center Road and Eastman Road to the north and Ahern State Park to the west and south and divided roughly in half

by Right Way Path. This parcel includes some 60 acres adjacent to the Robbie Mills Sports Complex bounded by Eastman Road and Green Street known as Risley Field, which the city leases on a short-term basis to provide parking for the sports complex. It excludes some 17 acres housing the 911 call center and the building vacated by Lakes Region Community Services that would remain the property of the state. The parcel was appraised at $1,760,000, There are also two smaller parcels. An undeveloped 10.4-acre lot at the junction of Old North Main Street and North Main Street was appraised at $300,000. An unimproved wooded lot of 7.5-acres at the corner of Lane Road and Meredith Center Road was appraised at $100,000. The state also leased both smaller parcels to the city in 2000 for 99 years at $1 a year.

In making its counter offer, the City Council agreed to purchase the two smaller parcels for their appraised value, despite holding leases on both. But, the council added the Robbie Mills Sports Complex, 10.2-acres owned by the state and leased to the city for 99 years, in its counter-offer. The sports complex, which was part of the Laconia State School campus, has not been appraised recently.

would serve as a warehouse or house light manufacturing, building trades or equipment and truck repairs. The board, with one dissenting vote, granted the variance in March 2011. The majority of the ZBA found that because of its proximity to commercial enterprises and lack of appropriate access, the land is not suited to residential development, despite its zoning.

Several residents stressed that the ZBA overlooked the threat to the water quality of nearby Lake Waukewan, the source of the town’s drinking water, posed by permitting industrial uses within the watershed overlay district. They also charged that the variance represents “zoning creep,” by extending the boundary of the business and industry district by annexing a lot in the residential district.

At the urging of residents, the selectmen asked the ZBA to reconsider and when the board reaffirmed its decision, appealed it to Belknap County Superior Court. In January, Judge James O’Neill, III ruled the variance was unreasonable, since the applicant proposed various uses and the board, without

knowing the specific use of the property, could not determine whether the five criteria required for a variance were satisfied. He struck the variance and referred the matter back to the ZBA. The ZBA returned to the case last month and after three hours of testimony and discussion reaffirmed it original decision. The board sought to confine the deliberations to two issues — the specific use of the property and its impact on neighboring property values. Laconia attorney Ed Philpot, representing the applicant, said that the property would be used as a “building trade-repair facility” consistent with the zoning ordinance, which Russ Thibeault of Applied Economic Research found would not diminish the value of nearby properties.

However attorney Laura Spector-Morgan, representing the selectmen, insisted that the court ordered the board to “start over,” by revisiting each of the five criteria in light of the proposed use, not simply designate a use and present an appraisal without addressing the criteria.

AL-QAIDA from page 2 the plot in April and was assured the device posed no threat to the public.

“The president thanks all intelligence and counterterrorism professionals involved for their outstanding work and for serving with the extraordinary skill and commitment that their enormous responsibilities demand,” Hayden said.

The operation unfolded even as the White House and Department of Homeland Security assured the American public that they knew of no al-Qaida plots against the U.S. around the anniversary of bin Lad-

en’s death. The operation was carried out over the past few weeks, officials said.

“We have no credible information that terrorist organizations, including al-Qaida, are plotting attacks in the U.S. to coincide with the anniversary of bin Laden’s death,” White House press secretary Jay Carney said on April 26.

On May 1, the Department of Homeland Security said, “We have no indication of any specific, credible threats or plots against the U.S. tied to the one-year anniversary of bin Laden’s death.”

from preceding page tered that the court did overturn the variance, but directed the ZBA to take a particular set of actions, not to revisit the entire case.

Warren Clark thought the proposed use rather vague and insisted the variance would represent “zoning creep.” But, the other members of the board — Michael Pelczar, David Thorpe, Brian Flanders and Timothy Goodheart — disagreed and after deliberating for 30 minutes found that the proposal met all five criteria.

NOTES: The Board of Selectmen unanimously

agreed to join with eight citizens, including Kate Miller, who represented Meredith in the New Hampshire House of Representatives, in challenging the plan to redraw the House districts as enacted by the Legislature. By combining Meredith and Gilford in a single district where four members would be elected at large, they claim the plan fails to ensure either town of the two seats to which their populations entitle them. The so-called “citizens suit” is one of several filed against the plan. Attorneys Martin Honigberg and Jay Surdokowski of Concord are representing the plaintiffs.

Moultonborough has a new police chief

MOULTONBOROUGH — The first order of business at the town’s Selectboard meeting of May 3 was the ceremonial swearing in of Leonard J Wetherbee Jr. as the Town’s new Chief of Police. Chief Wetherbee assumed his official duties on April 30.

The appointment resulted from a nationwide search in which a five-member panel of three law enforcement professionals, a municipal management professional, and a citizen representative initially screened 58 applicants down to a final four to move forward in the process. Those four went through a one day final assessment including interviews with key staff, making a presentation they had been assigned based upon the community involvement through an online survey, an interview with the Selectboard and an extensive reference check.

Wetherbee started his career with the Concord, Massachusetts Police Department, rising through the ranks to serve as chief of police for 17 years before retiring in January of 2010. He was instrumental in developing a now regional program to address domestic violence and in the formation of a community based restorative justice initiative that also expanded

A fire that started in a motorhome parked at Meredith Self Storage yesterday morning also destroyed a 28-foot powerboat parked close nearby. (Laconia Daily Sun photo/Adam Drapcho)

Meredith storage yard fire claims camper & boat

BY ADAM DRAPCHO THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

MEREDITH — A fire in the Meredith Self Storage yard yesterday morning left a small motorhome destroyed, a powerboat burned and a firefighter with a dislocated shoulder.

Tom Joslin, deputy fire chief, said the fire started in the motorhome but had already spread to the boat, which was parked close nearby, but the time firefighters arrived. “They were both going when I pulled in the yard,” he said.

Firefighters from Meredith and Laconia worked together to knock down the fire, which created a plume of smoke visible from Route 104.

Joslin was sure the fire started in the motorhome, though he was unsure how the blaze was sparked.

“That camper had been here for quite a few years,” he said, adding that the vehicle’s battery was dead from preceding page “At the completion of the process, the Selectboard felt that Chief Wetherbee’s lengthy prior experience as a police chief, his work in communities with similar characteristics to Moultonborough, his leadership style, and his extensive record of engaging the community in true partnership makes him an excellent choice to lead the Moultonborough Police Department. The Selectman are confident that they will see the department flourish under his leadership.”

Reflecting on his career, Wetherbee said that he is most proud of the enduring relationships that the Concord Police Department forged with the community during his tenure. He said, “I am honored

and its propane tanks were empty. He also noted that the motorhome was filled with a wide assortment of items. “It was loaded with stuff,” he said.

A Meredith firefighter was injured when he fell from the ladder on the boat. Paramedics from Stewart’s Ambulance treated the firefighter, whom Joslin didn’t name, and transported him to Lakes Region General Hospital for treatment.

The fire spoiled the weekend plans of Christine Kingsley. She and her husband Scott, of Gilford, own the 28-foot Regal boat, which they named “Cloud Nine” and which they were planning to launch at the end of the week. Christine said she appreciated the firefighters’ efforts to salvage their vessel and was not surprised, given the close proximity to the motorhome, that the boat was destroyed.

“What are you going to do? Now ‘Cloud Nine’ is up in heaven,” she said. to have been chosen to lead the Moultonborough Police Department and look forward to working with department personnel and the community in continuing to provide professional police services in step with the needs and wants of the people of Moultonborough.”

Wetherbee received his Bachelors Degree in Administration of Criminal Justice Systems from the University of Lowell and a Masters Degree in Public Administration from Framingham State College. He is a graduate of the 166th Session of the FBI National Academy. He resides in Center Ossipee with his wife Anne and their two Portuguese Water Dogs.

Cats said left in Ahern State Park; police investigating LACONIA — Police are investigating the report of people abandoning cats in Ahern State Park.

A passerby witnessed two people last Thursday dumping off two cats in the remote state park on Lake Winnisquam and then driving away, causing the animals to fend for themselves.

Laconia Police Sgt. Richard Simmons said Monday

that police have spoken to a suspect in the case but have not made an arrest as of yet.

Simmons said that anyone found to be deserting an animal, in a way as has been reported to police, could potentially be charged with cruelty to animals, a misdemeanor.

Middlebrooks powers Red Sox to 11-5 win in K.C. KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Will Middlebrooks homered down each of the lines, David Ortiz and Dustin Pedroia also went deep, and the Boston Red Sox pounded the Kansas City Royals 11-5 on Monday night to snap a five-game losing streak.

Middlebrooks, called up last week when Kevin Youkilis went on the disabled list, hit a three-run shot in the first inning and a two-run homer in the eighth, becoming the first player in Red Sox history with at least one extra-base hit in each of his first four major league games.

He also hit a grand slam in Boston’s 17-inning loss to Baltimore the previous night.

Felix Doubront (2-1) allowed all five Kansas City runs over 6 1-3 innings, giving the Red Sox bullpen

a much-needed rest. Boston used up every available arm against the Orioles, forcing left-fielder Darnell McDonald to finish the 9-6 defeat.

The Royals’ Jonathan Sanchez (1-2) was pounded for six runs in three-plus innings, the 11th straight time the former Giants starter failed to last more than five innings.

Doubront left protecting a two-run cushion with the bases loaded in the seventh inning, but Vincente Padilla got Billy Butler to chop into an inning-ending double-play to preserve the lead, and the Red Sox added four more runs in the eighth to put it away.

Padilla wrapped up the game for the 34-year-old’s sixth career save.

EUROPE from page 2 “believe the fiscal pact is not up for negotiation.”

Still, she stressed the importance of French-German cooperation — and her willingness to meet soon with Hollande.

Economists said that while the anti-austerity winds are bound to stir up short-term political instability, especially in Greece, they could eventually bring some financial calm.

“This is going to force some rethinking” all across Europe about how to manage the debt crisis, said Laura Gonzalez, a finance professor at Fordham University in New York. “That is good for everybody.”

Greece remains the focus of Europe’s financial and political unease. Political parties that made gains by rejecting belt-tightening still have to assemble a majority coalition in Parliament before they can begin governing. The conservatives got the first try Monday but failed — leaving a new left-wing, party to take its turn. If no party can assemble a coalition, the country will need to hold new elections, probably in June.

The main stock index in Greece plunged almost 7 percent. France’s CAC-40 ended 1.7 percent higher.

WALKER from page 2 for most state workers. So far, the Democratic primary has been mostly devoid of internal attacks, with the candidates, led by front-runner Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett, instead looking ahead to Walker and the June 5 general election.

It’s only the third gubernatorial recall election in U.S. history. Governors were recalled from office in North Dakota in 1921 and in California in 2003.

Polls, including one from Marquette University released just last week, have consistently shown Barrett in the lead in the Democratic primary over Kathleen Falk, the former Dane County executive.

Walker himself released a new television ad Monday directed solely at Barrett.

Barrett stopped at diners in Sheboygan and Kenosha on Monday, where he shook hands with customers and urged them to vote for him. At the Gateway Cafe in Kenosha, Barrett made small talk with patrons.

NH Jazz Presents Todd Clouser’s ‘A Love Electric’ LACONIA — NH Jazz Presents will host Todd Clouser’s Love Electric featuring Steven Bernstein on May 10 at 8 p.m. at Pitman’s Freight Room.

Clouser is a Mexico-based guitarist whose genredefying compositions and passionate live performances have earned the praise of musicians, critics, and lovers of jazz and rock alike. His newest fulllength release Todd Clouser’s A Love Electric (2011 Ropeadope) is an intuitive blend of 70’s rock, Curtis Mayfield groove, and modern jazz.

Clouser toured for a number of years with rock outfit “4 Letter Man” before relocating to Baja, Mexico in 2007 in the hopes of adopting a slower pace of life. It wasn’t long before Clouser found inspiration in his new surroundings. “I tend to be an anxious person, so a move to Mexico, the beaches, a public that can be a bit less rigid, works great for me.” said Clouser.

His “A Love Electric” will feature trumpeter and composer Steven Bernstein. Bernstein, a veteran of the NYC jazz scene, has played trumpet with a diverse group of artists including My Morning Jacket, Linda Ronstadt, Digable Planets, Sting, Medeski Martin and Wood, and Courtney Love.

Since November 2004 Bernstein has been a member of the Levon Helm band, playing at the Midnight Rambles in Levon’s home in Woodstock, NY. During his 10 years as a member of John Lurie’s Lounge Lizards he arranged the music for Get Shorty, Clay Pigeons, Fishing with John and many more film, television and commercial projects.

‘In the Footsteps of the Basket Weavers’ at Lane Tavern

SANBORNTON — The Sanbornton Historical Society will host the program “In the Footsteps of the Basket Weavers”, presented by Sharon Dugan Thursday, May 10, at 7 p.m. at the Lane Tavern.

Basketmaking is the most ancient of crafts. Woven containers were indispensable for storage, transport, religious ceremonies and more. The materials used to create vessels are virtually unlimited ranging from plant life to horsehair to fish skin and beyond.

Using some of the baskets in her collection, Dugan will present a program discussing the worldwide variety of materials used in baskets, the evolution of what is known of as “New England” baskets and

their makers, and some of the current basketmakers following in their footsteps, including her own traditionally based baskets.

Dugan is an internationally recognized award winning ash splint basketmaker who has been making baskets using ash and materials from the trees of New England since 1984. A member of the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen and former chair of the Standards Committee, Sharon’s work is represented in the Smithsonian’s Museum of American Art, Renwick Gallery, the Wicker Museum in Nowy Tomysl, Poland, the League’s Permanent Collection, and many private collections in several countries.

Mother’s Day Cruise kicks off MV Mount Washington’s 2012 season LACONIA — Upholding a long tradition, the M/S Mount Washington offers its first public cruises on Mother’s Day, Sunday, May 13 with a Mother’s Day Champagne Brunch Cruise.

The Mother’s Day cruise includes a two and a half hour scenic cruise, a complete champagne brunch buffet and live entertainment. This special brunch is offered at two different times: 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.

Fares are $39 for adults and $19 for children 5-12.

Children under 5 are free.

The 140-year history of the popular cruise ship began with the Mount Washington I, which plied the water of the big lake until 1939. Today’s vessel, the motor-ship Mount Washington, started her career on Vermont’s Lake Champlain under the name “Chateauguay.” Purchased by the Winnipesaukee Steamship Company in 1940, she was transported in twenty sections via rail, reassembled, re-outfitted, and christened the Mount Washington II. Two years ago she was overhauled to get new

engines, and public rooms were upgraded. Today, in addition to operating the ‘Mount,’ the Winnipesaukee Flagship Corporation also owns and operates the 74’ U.S. Mail Boat Sophie C., and 68’ Doris E. Both vessels offer scenic lake cruises in July and August from Weirs Beach.

This marks the 120th season of the U.S. Mail Boat Sophie C, the oldest floating post office in the United States. Each season she provides mail service on Lake Winnipesaukee, a tradition dating back to 1892. The M/V Doris E has been re-powered with modern new engines.

The M/S Mount Washington’s official season runs from late May to late October. Daily cruises depart from Weirs Beach and service the ports of Meredith, Wolfeboro, Center Harbor and Alton Bay. With a capacity of 1,250 passengers, the Mount Washington serves as the largest restaurant in the state and a popular gathering point for school proms, college reunions, large corporate celebrations and weddings.

Friends of Meredith Community College offering OSHA training Library plan Book Sale LACONIA — Lakes Region Community College (LRCC) is offering a 10-hour Construction Outreach Training Program on Monday, May 21, and Tuesday, May 22, from 7 a.m. to noon.

The OSHA Training will emphasize hazard identification, avoidance, control, and prevention.

Construction topics include concentrations on the OSHA Focus Four Hazards; Fall Protection, Electrical, Struck By and Caught in Between. Additional time is spent on the introduction to OSHA, the General Duty Clause, personal protective and lifesaving equipment, and health hazards in construction. Participants successfully completing the course requirements receive an OSHA 10-hour Department of Labor course completion card.

For additional information and to register for the OSHA Training, contact Fletcher at 524-3207 ext.

Winners of Annalee Thorndike Art Competition announced at reception at Belknap Mill SIDE EFFECTS OF MEDICATIONS We hear a lot about side effects of medications on TV commercials – but let’s keep in mind that drugs don’t know what we want them to do – they just do what they do (regardless of whether or not this meets our primary purpose for taking them). Do you know the oral side effects of the medications you take? Here is a brief overview of medications that can affect the condition of your mouth: Many drugs, including antihistamines, antihypertensives, and diabetes meds (among others) can cause your mouth to become dry. Decreased flow of saliva is a concern because saliva helps to keep soft tissue lubricated and this cleanses the teeth and mouth. Other drugs can cause an overgrowth of gum tissue which makes it difficult to maintain good oral hygiene. Some medications have been linked to the development of oral sores, inflammation or discoloration (e.g., tetracycline products can cause permanent staining on developing teeth). Aspirin and other blood-thinning drugs reduce clotting and this can cause bleeding problems during oral surgery or periodontal therapy. Your dentist needs to know every over-the-counter and prescription medication you are taking in order to provide optimal care. Make sure you keep your health history up to date. Remember – there’s no “free lunch” in pharmacology! You pay a price for everything you get when you take a drug… so be aware of what you’re taking and how it affects you.

LEEF presents grants to teachers for 2 Laconia High School programs LACONIA — Mitch Hamel, Chair of The Laconia Endowment Educational Foundation, recently presented grants to teachers for two Laconia High School programs.

One went to Leigh Buliung for material used in a music-based speech therapy program that is presented weekly to students with developmental disabilities in the Life Skills class. The therapy is based on research at Harvard University and Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital indicating that music activities can help create alternative pathways to strengthen connections in the brain. These in turn help the students acquire social, language and motor skills.

The other was presented to Elizabeth Strauss and Patty Thibault for reading materials related to bullying, social cruelty and personal interactions. They will be used in an ongoing collaboration between Laconia High School and New Beginnings Shelter that promotes learning about healthy relationships, domestic violence, and verbal and physical abuse. The materials purchased with the grant will be used by students in the Wellnesss class (which is taken by all high school students) and by shelter support groups.

LEEF provides cash grants, once in the Fall and again in the Spring, to schools and teachers for purchasing equipment and supplies, or for funding activities or pro-

WRHS teens walking to end bullying on May 19

TILTON — The WRHS Class of 2015 is launching the first ever class community service project at their school. The students chose to increase awareness about the impact of bullying in their school through service learning and will hold the first annual Teen LIGHT Walk-a-Thon on May 19.

The Freshman Seminar classes at WRHS are completing all aspects of this project as they work to meet their school’s mission of PRIDE - Productive Citizenship, Respect for Self and Community, Individual Growth and Achievement, Determination to Succeed, and Excellence in Education. Students are researching and working with several non-profits that serve teens to determine an appropriate recipient of the proceeds from the walk-a-thon.

The WRHS Teen LIGHT Walk-a-Thon will take place on Saturday, May 19, at the WRHS track complex located behind the high school on West Main Street.

Pre-registered walker check-in and on site registration begins at 9:30 a.m. The 5k walk and track lap-a-thon will take place from 10–11 a.m. Following the walk the event will include raffles, dunk tank, games, music and honored guest speakers. Walk fees are: school-aged children $5, Adults 18+ $10, teams/families of six $30.

This is Teen LIGHT’s first year at WRHS. Teen LIGHT is a ground-breaking and award-winning program that has been inspiring teens in public schools since 2008. Teen LIGHT empowers students to create community service projects that develop young leaders, inspire philanthropy, generate hope, and transform the lives of teens in need. In its first three years in a Massachusetts middle school, Teen LIGHT raised over $40,000 to benefit teens struggling with bullying, depression, addiction, and abuse.

In response to the question, “What would you do to change the world?”” this year’s Teen LIGHT group at WRHS answered that they wish to raise awareness about the issue of bullying.

Students are also learning about service over a lifetime, exploring the impact of bullying and working on materials to raise awareness. According to 9th grader Haley Poirier, “Our goal is to make bullying extinct. One of our class members, Dan Kehr, designed our t-shirt logo that highlights this goal.”

Business sponsors include the Tilton-Northfield Rotary, Piche’s Ski & Sport Screenprinting, Benson’s Hair Salon, The Palace Theatre, Dalton Construction (Dalton Family), and The Manchester Union Leader.

School Employee Sponsors: Dana Foulds, Heidy Voigt, Bobbie LaBranche and Family, and Peter Howard.

Those interested in sponsoring this event or preregistering to walk, can contact Denise Lessard at 603-286-4531 or dlessard@wrsdsau59.org

By Holiday Mathis are quite purposeful now. You will be sure to accomplish your top three priorities. If you want to stay on track, be sure to celebrate those accomplishments. Otherwise, you’ll quickly lose steam.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

If you believe that things happen for a reason, you don’t always have to know what that reason is at every moment.

You trust that it’s right. And trust can’t happen unless there’s a factor of the unknown involved.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

You’ll sense that you need to release your resistance to an idea, but you may not feel ready to do so. Accept your feelings and your current place.

The more you accept the better you’ll understand your options.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You are not in the mood to wait around, and you make that clear with your behavior.

Because you place such a high value on your time and energy, others will do the same.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You deserve to be prosperous, and you believe that others deserve this, too, so you’ll help them get where they want to be. This in turn builds your business. All is working as it should.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (May 8).

You’ll apply passion to your work with fantastic results. You may choose a difficult job because you know you can do it -- and someone has to. The entertainment is rich in June. Friends and family surprise you with their plans in July. You’ll scoop up a major bonus in September and use it to embark on an adventure. Scorpio and Libra people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 3, 50, 23, 25 and 18.

TUNDRA

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You have a basic recipe for taking care of yourself. Realizing that you’re a little bored with the basics, today you’ll add special extras and secret ingredients to that formula.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Physical exertion during the day helps you fall into a deeper and more restful sleep at night. It will be difficult to gain a winning perspective if you are tired. Therefore, getting rest is a top priority.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Things get complicated. Right now you’re not sure who is on your side; you’re not even sure whether you are on your own side. Start there. How can you better support yourself?

CANCER (June 22-July 22). The one who is very charming is not trying to get you to do anything in particular.

There’s an affection growing here. As a result, you have a way of unwittingly drawing this person out.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). When things seem much harder than they should be, you take notice and start asking questions. What am I putting out that attracted this tone to me? How can I adjust to create greater ease in my life? You quickly turn things around.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Life doesn’t always go as planned. You’re not into forcing life to bend to your will. Anyway, that wouldn’t work. You’ll deal with what you’re given and see the potential. You’re creative.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll get an extra dose of optimism from the stars. Your stellar attitude allows you to start fresh, no matter how many times you’ve failed in the past. You let go and stay open to the unexpected.

Mereditharea Masons to hold pancake breakfast on May 12 HOLDERNESS — The Meredith-area Masons of Olive Branch Mount Prospect Lodge #16. will hold an all you can eat pancake breakfast on Saturday May 12 from 8-11 a.m. at the OBMP Masonic Lodge located on Route 3, about three miles north of Meredith at the Holderness-Center Harbor town line.

All are welcome and encouraged to partake of OBMP’s 2012 kickoff fundraiser, the first of eight monthly breakfasts supporting the Lodge’s local charitable work and programs, said Randy Hilman, OBMP spokesperson.

“We will treat our guests to a hearty breakfast of the comfort foods that most people love to eat too much of and we’ll offer more if anyone wants it,”’ said Hilman, adding wryly, “I mean, homemade pancakes with gobs of butter and Webster Farm maple syrup isn’t so bad once a month, is it?’’

Rounding out the $7 flapjack bonanza will be healthy oven-baked bacon, sausage, potatoes, eggs, fresh fruit, juice and coffee. Curious epicureans will be given the rare opportunity to tour and have explained Masonry’s inner sanctum – the Lodge room where reside the tools and implements of architecture, symbols the most expressive of the Craft’s venerable underpinnings, Hilman said.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Dear Annie: My sister-in-law asked me to wipe her PC’s hard drive so she could donate it. In the process, I discovered an old suicide note she had written. It dates back five years, which was a time when I know she felt overwhelmed caring for a disabled friend. In the note, it says she felt terribly burdened by this unwanted responsibility.

My sister-in-law recently moved back home to take care of her father, who is aging but is otherwise in good health. I’m afraid she may get overwhelmed again. What should I do?

-- Help for My Brother’s Wife Dear Wife: Any caregiver can feel overwhelmed, and you would not be breaking any confidences to offer assistance and support. Ask whether you could shop for groceries or pick up a prescription. If Dad is healthy enough to be left alone, take your sister-in-law out for coffee and conversation. If not, tell her you’ll sit with Dad for an hour so she can have a break.

Talk to her often. And make sure she has the contact information for resources such as the Eldercare Locator (eldercare. gov) at 1-800-677-1116 and the National Family Caregivers Association (nfcacares.org).

Dear Annie: Next month would have been my fourth anniversary had I not moved out of the house I shared with husband, who is 12 years my junior.

“John” and I have been in a relationship for almost 10 years, and I thought I knew him. The problem started soon after our wedding, when I returned from an out-of-state trip and found pictures he had taken of himself -- naked, graphic and posing suggestively with photos of other men. John said he was just curious about taking them and denies ever posting the pictures online. I thought we worked through it after many heartfelt discussions, but then six months ago, I caught him surfing gay porn on my computer, as well as watching it on TV.

He promised he would go to counseling, and I gave him one last chance, saying I would leave him if he lied to me about it again. In February, I ran a profile of the top five websites that he visits -- and they were all porn. I also discovered that he has charged porn to his credit card.

That was the last straw. I rented a house, and he finally realized that I was serious. But he doesn’t understand why I want out of the relationship. He says it’s “just porn” and refuses counseling. I cannot make him see that it is not just the porn.

It is the lying, hiding, withholding of affection, withdrawal from me and his daily pot smoking that led up to my leaving.

Annie, I am a pretty, petite, youthful woman with a great job. I provide John with a comfortable lifestyle, but I refuse to keep enabling him. Should I stay with him even though I will never trust or respect him again? -- Suicidal and Angry Dear Angry: Trust and respect are two rather important aspects of a healthy marriage. If counseling does not help you regain those elements, we don’t see a happy future for you.

And it sounds as if excessive pornography isn’t your only problem with John. A man who “specializes” in homoerotic porn has other things on his mind: men, for instance.

Dear Annie: “A Disappointed 15-Year-Old Girl” was offended by your comment to “Upstate New York Dad” that it’s not unusual for teenagers to show poor judgment. She interpreted that as a slap in the face to all responsible teenagers.

I could be equally offended by her statement that the irresponsible babysitter was raised by a parent who has no dignity or honesty. I could choose to interpret that as a slap in the face to all parents who raised their children with dignity and honesty, only to see those same children make bad decisions.

So, honey, be careful with your criticism, and don’t be so anxious to take offense. -- Realistic Michigan Mom
