LACONIA — The City Council, meeting in nonpublic session yesterday, chose between the two finalists for the position of city manager and expects to make a conditional offer to the successful candidate early next week and announce the next city manager before the week is out.

Mayor Mike Seymour said that after narrowing the field to two, the councilors sought more information about them. Don Jutton of Municipal Resources, Inc. , the consultant who shepherded the council through the selection process, interviewed both finalists, asking specific questions raised by the councilors.

He also asked both candidates to complete a questionnaire designed to address issues and questions

remaining after the council interviewed the candidates last week. Furthermore, both candidates spoke with members of the Mitchell Group, the law firm that represents the city, and Melanson Heath & Company PC, which audits the city’s finances.

Seymour said that after learning and discussing the results of these interviews, the council reached what he called a “consensus” in favor of one of the finalists. Although he said the decision was not unanimous, he was quick to stress that the councilors were not divided. “There was plenty of support for the candidate we selected,” the mayor said.

“In fact, it was said that we couldn’t go wrong with either choice.”

Seymour said that the councilors agreed that all see MaNaGEr page 9

Newt’s wife blamed for campaign upheaval

ATLANTA (AP) — Callista Gingrich has been a near constant presence at her husband’s side, a visible symbol that the twicedivorced House speaker is now a devoted family man.

But Gingrich’s third wife also is being cited by people close to him as a key factor in the staff revolt that has left his presidential campaign on life support.

At least 16 aides and advisers abandoned the Gingrich campaign on Thursday, an unprecedented exodus that has cast doubt on his viability as a contender for the Republican presidential nomination. Gingrich has pledged to push forward with his campaign and is set to offer a foreign policy address to a Jewish Republican group in Los Angeles on Sunday. It’s a speech that Gingrich hopes will reset his White House bid, and it’s a near certainty that his wife will accompany him.

In the implosion’s aftermath, officials close to the Gingrich campaign privately pointed fingers at Callista Gingrich as the see NEWT page 8

Dow falls below 12k as stocks drop 6 weeks straight NEW YORK (AP) — Fears that the global economic recovery has stalled pushed the Dow Jones industrial average below 12,000 for the first time since March and drove the stock market lower for the sixth straight week.

Friday’s drop extended the longest weekly losing streak for stocks since the fall of 2002.

Weak economic news has dampened hopes for a steady recovery, sending stocks down. Traders worry that weaker hiring,

sluggish industrial output, and a moribund housing market are reversing a bull market that has lifted the Dow 20 percent over the past year.

If the indexes continue their slide for another week, it would be the first time in 10 years that the market suffered a seven-week stretch of losses. The last such stretch began in May 2001 as the dot-com bubble deflated.

The Dow fell 172.45 points, or 1.4 percent, to close Friday at 11,951.91. The

S&P 500 index fell 18.02, or 1.4 percent, to 1,270.98. The Nasdaq dropped 41.14, or 1.5 percent, to 2,643.73.

The Nasdaq is now down slightly for the year, as is the Russell 2000 index of small company stocks. The Dow is still up 3.2 percent for 2011 and the S&P 1.1 percent.

Some investors said the recent pullback may not last.

SPRINGERVILLE, Ariz. (AP) — A massive wildfire in eastern Arizona that has claimed more than 30 homes and cabins and forced nearly 10,000 people to flee was poised to move into New Mexico on Friday, threatening more towns and possibly endangering two major power lines that bring electricity from Arizona to West Texas.

The fire has burned 639 square miles of forest, an increase of 114 square miles from a day earlier, officials said Friday.

Lighter winds Thursday and Friday

helped the 3,000 firefighters on the lines make progress, but critical fire conditions remain, said Jim Whittington, a spokesman for the teams battling the fire. High winds were expected to return with a vengeance Saturday.

“We have until then to get as much work as we can done and get to the point where we can sit back and watch the winds come,” Whittington said.

Fire crews plan to try to strengthen what lines they’ve been able to establish

and continue burning out forested areas in front of the main fire to try to stop its advance. It was officially just 5 percent contained Friday, but the actual numbers likely are higher, Whittington said.

The advances came on the fire’s north side, near the working-class towns of Springerville and Eagar on the edge of the forest.

Nearly 10,000 people have been evacuated from the two towns and from several mountain communities in the forest. see WILDFIRE page 12

YAYLADAGI, Turkey (AP) — Elite Syrian forces moved swiftly through the country’s restive north on Friday, raining tank shells on rebellious towns, torching farmland and shooting protesters who tried to tear down a poster of President Bashar Assad, activists and refugees said.

At least 32 people were killed, activists said, and undaunted protests extended to every major city.

The leader of neighboring Turkey, angered

by violence that has sent more than 4,000 Syrians streaming across the border, accused the Assad regime of “savagery.”

Backed by helicopters and tanks, the troops responsible for most of Friday’s violence were believed to be from an elite division commanded by Assad’s younger brother, Maher. The decision to mobilize his unit against the most serious threats to the 40-year Assad regime could be a sign of concern about the loyalty of regular conscripts.

Syrians who escaped from the town of Jisr al-Shughour into Turkey said the army came after police turned their guns on each other and soldiers refused orders to fire on protesters last week. Syrian state television has said 120 officers and security personnel were killed by gunmen. A man who remained behind said the few residents left were hoping barricades of burning tires could hold off the reinforcesee SYRIA page 11

Weiner says his online contact with 17-year-old was not explicit or indecent WILMINGTON, Del. (AP) — U.S. Rep. Anthony Weiner, who has been under fire after admitting to sending graphic photos to women online, has acknowledged he had online contact with a 17-yearold girl but said the communications were “neither explicit nor indecent.”

FoxNews.com reported that New Castle County police officers went to a high school junior’s home Friday afternoon to speak with the girl’s mother about the teen’s contact with the New York Democrat. A FoxNews.com reporter was at the home when police arrived.

A Weiner spokeswoman issued a one-sentence statement Friday night that said, “According to Congressman Weiner, his communications with this person were neither explicit nor indecent.”

Weiner, a seven-term Democrat, has admitted sending sexually explicit messages over the Internet to a half-dozen women over the past three years.

House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi has asked for an ethics investigation.

Flooding overwhelms Montana, supplies ferried to stranded 300

BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) — Emergency workers ferried supplies to more than 300 people cut off Friday by flooding that has overwhelmed Montana towns and caused an estimated $8.6 million in damages to date.

Heavy rain and the runoff from record mountain snowpack have caused rivers over much of the West to spill from their banks. Montana has been hit particularly hard over the past few weeks, with hundreds of homes inundated and scores of roadways swamped. see MONTANA page 9

Wide Open Saloon owner looking for extension of demolition order until Motorcycle Week has passed

By Gail OBer

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA — The owner of the landmark Weirs Beach motel and resturant gutted by a fire last September confirmed yesterday that she and the city are close to an agreement on demolishing the building.

Brandi Baldi, the owner of the Wide Open Saloon, said she would not be able to tear down the building during Motorcycle Week, as Judge Jim Carroll

ordered in late May, but hopes the city will agree to an extension until the next week. Carroll’s order came in resp0nse to a request made by the city.

Business interests in the Weirs have been open about their feeling that Baldi has had well enough time to do something about the building they consider an eye sore and the city’s action was largely is response to their complaints. see SALOON page 12

Obama’s dilemma is ours, too Seventy-one years ago this spring, after the German army had broken through the French lines, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill flew to France to consult his embattled allies on how to stop the advance. “Where is the strategic reserve?” Churchill urgently asked the French commander in chief, Gen. Maurice Gamelin, and then he repeated himself in French: “Ou est la masse de manoeuvre?”

“Aucune,” came Gamelin’s reply.

“There is none.”

The French had no reserves to stop the Germans from overrunning their country. The Battle of France was lost.

The Obama administration, in its grand strategy to generate a rapid and strong recovery from the Great Recession, is at a similar pass. It has drawn and played all its cards: the $800-billion stimulus bill, three straight deficits averaging $1.4-trillion, the Federal Reserve’s mass purchases of bad paper from the world’s banks, and QE2, the monthly purchase of $100-billion in Treasury bills that ends June 30.

Yet, from the numbers that came in from May, Obama looks to be holding a losing hand. The anemic growth of the first quarter of 2011 seems to have stalled, and the prospect of a double-dip recession looms.

Though the administration anticipated perhaps a quarter-million new jobs in May, as April produced, May generated only 55,000. The unemployment rate ticked back up to 9.1-percent. The rise in manufacturing employment went into reverse. Five thousand manufacturing jobs were lost. Consumer confidence sank.

Today 2-million homes remain vacant in the USA, putting immense downward pressure on housing prices. A fourth of U.S. homes are not worth the mortgages being paid upon them.

Says Federal Reserve Vice Chairwoman Janet Yellen, “Looking forward, I unfortunately can envision no quick or easy solutions for the problems still afflicting the housing market.” Recovery is going to be a “long, drawn-out process.”

A further decline in housing prices of 10 to 25-percent over the next five years, says Robert Shiller, the economist who invented the S&P/CaseShiller index of property values, “wouldn’t surprise me at all.”

The economic malaise has now begun to affect the mood of the nation and its attitude toward the president. Almost 90-percent of Americans think the U.S. economy is terrible or poor. Sixty percent think the nation is headed in the wrong direction. Forty-eight percent expect a second Great Depression next year. Fewer than 40-percent approve of Obama’s handling of the U.S. economy. In one new poll, Mitt

Romney leads the president 49-46 in a matchup in 2012.

The question Obama faces and, indeed, Congress and the nation face is: What do we do now?

Chairman Ben Bernanke of the Federal Reserve has signaled that there will be no QE3, no more Fed purchases of $100-billion a month in U.S. government paper. Buyers for that $1.2-trillion a year of U.S. debt will have to be found elsewhere.

And with the economy stagnant or sinking, the Democrats on Capitol Hill are starting to back away from any deep budget cuts, even as Republicans are now even less likely to sign on to any tax increases to reduce the $1.5-billion deficit.

Indeed, if the economy is stalled or sinking into recession, what economic theory is it that argues for austerity and tax hikes?

And the perceived economic stagnation not only diminishes the chance of a bipartisan budget deal but also points to deadlock on the debt ceiling. Republicans are already holding out for $1 in spending cuts for every dollar increase in the debt ceiling. And the country seems to be behind the GOP position: If the Senate and White House don’t agree to $2-trillion in spending cuts, we don’t raise the debt ceiling by $2-trillion.

The U.S. government does not run out of money to pay its bills until August. But markets probably will be making judgments upon the likelihood of a U.S. default well before then.

How did we get here? How did the richest and strongest country in history, triumphant in World War II and the Cold War, approach so soon the condition of the late Spanish and British empires as they began their precipitous declines?

Answer: We overextended ourselves. We bankrupted ourselves.

We undertook the defense of nations all over the world having little to do with our vital national interests.

We fought unnecessary wars. We doled out trillions in foreign aid to ingrates, incompetents, opportunists and thieves.

We promised all our seniors Social Security and subsidized medical care for the rest of their lives and failed to put the money away to pay for it. We dropped half of U.S. wage earners off the tax rolls while creating a mammoth welfare state to dwarf anything Norman Thomas and his Socialists dreamed of in the 1930s.

Not only for the United States but also for the West, the days of wine and roses are over.

LETTERS Bike Week dumps money in Laconia’s pocket & people complain To the editor, In response to Mr. Devens’ letter in yesterday’s Sun, while I cannot cite specific figures or sources, Laconia Bike Week annually draws upwards of 300,000 visitors to New Hampshire and to the Lakes Region every June. These visitors account for millions of dollars in revenue being realized by our state and it would seem to follow the Lakes Region, being the center of attention, would receive it’s fair share of that.

You ask who receives it? Again I have no specific individuals or businesses to name but I should think that bars, restaurants, motels, inns, liquor stores, grocery stores, gas stations, farm stands, antique shops, arcades and amusement places, local parking lots, car washes and marinas would all realize some boost in income during the week. This type of event is the sort of thing that helps the local economy. While Bike Week itself does nothing to add income to the local carpenter or well driller or accountant, it puts money in the pockets of people who will in turn avail themselves of the services those people offer. Kind of works out pretty neatly when you think about it.

As for the City of Laconia, I’ve never seen a city get so much money dumped into its lap and fight every cent of it.

Do you know that in Laconia if you erect an outdoor party tent, a tent

without sides mind you, that you have to have lighted exit signs installed in order to get a permit? Not trying to be harsh here but anyone who can’t figure a way out of an open air tent during a fire deserves to burn. Yup, the City of Laconia has a nice little racket goin’ on.

As for you being “intimidated by gangs of motorcycles” please try to not be afraid of inanimate objects, they pose you no harm. I fully understand your repulsion of the unmuffled ones.

I love the throaty roar of a properly tuned Harley but some of them are just ridiculous. But again, then the local hearing-aid retailer will pick up a few bucks eh?

In my original letter I stated that the economy most assuredly played a roll in the lower attendance expected at Bike Week vis-a-vis, the price of fuel. Fuel prices rise hence food, lodging and a myriad of other prices rise with it. Some day people will realize that oil doesn’t come from a bunch of dead dinosaurs and when the consuming public finally figures out that it’s a renewable and almost endless resource then the price will come down again. As for wondering who would miss bike week? Check with any of your neighbors who own a local business, you may be surprised.

LETTERS Funds are being sought to address issues involving Monkey Pond To the editor, This letter is written in response to the concern for Monkey Pond and the water quality of Lake Waukewan expressed by Mr. Horne in Thursday’s (June 2) Laconia Daily Sun. I would like to reassure Mr. Horne that the Town of Meredith, the NH Dept. of Environmental Services, the Waukewan Watershed Advisory Committee, the Waukewan Shore Owners Association, and the Lake Winnipesaukee Watershed Association (LWWA) are aware of the issues regarding Monkey Pond and are working toward finding solutions.

As of last December, a management plan was completed for the Meredith Bay, Paugus Bay, and Saunders Bay sub-watersheds of Lake Winnipesaukee. Issues and sites in need of restoration in the Lake Waukewan watershed were included in that plan as Lake Waukewan flows into Lake

Winnipesaukee. One of the sites identified in the plan is Monkey Pond.

Please visit the Winnipesaukee Gateway website, www.winnigateway.org, to see the map and list of sites, including descriptions of the problems, and what actions have been identified.

In April of this year, representatives of the NH DES, Town of Meredith, Waukewan Shore Owners Association, and LWWA met to discuss the issue in greater detail and to move forward in seeking funding sources to specifically address Monkey Pond.

As with many things, money is tight at all levels; federal, state, and local, as well as with both public and private funding sources. I welcome Mr. Horne’s input and would be happy to keep him informed of the process.

I can’t imagine willingness to cede that kind of parental responsibility To the editor, I see that another “educator” has joined the fray, in asking the governor to veto the Parental Notification Law. This time it’s Scott Cracraft who wishes to deny parents the right to help their daughter in making decisions concerning her pregnancy. Scott says “we guys” should butt out. I guess with that “logic”, if Scott saw an adult woman beating and kicking a child, he would not intervene and try to save the child . . . especially if he knew the adult woman was not the child’s parent. Convoluted? You betcha!

With parenthood comes responsibilities, and those responsibilities are not always cute and cuddly fairy tale stories. They involve difficult decisions, support, love, and doing the right thing as best you know how. I don’t know if Scott or Ms. Rudmin Chong

have children of their own. If they do, I can’t imagine them being willing to cede their parental responsibility to some unknown person in a matter of life and death. Does Scott think a father has no say when it comes to his child‘s welfare?

Rudmin Chong protested that she never spoke to a student concerning abortion. But, she has openly and repeatedly written letters advocating it, and, like Scott, she wants to remove the parents’ rights in one of the most difficult decisions their child will ever have to face. That is absolutely outrageous.

Perhaps our “educators” should spend more time trying to improve our ever declining student test results and less time trying to deny parental rights.

Please help Meredith family that lost its home to fire on Wed. To the editor, There have been a lot of natural tragedies going on lately, although so far, not so close to my home until yesterday.

A family in our community lost its home, personal belongings and numerous family pets to a fire. Your paper has the story in Thursdays edition on page 6. My understanding is that they have lost virtually everything. I feel that God has spoken to me, and I feel thankful that He did.

He asked me to reach out to help this family in need. So, I have set up an account at the Meredith Village Sav-

ings Bank, to help this family. So if any of you readers of The Laconia Daily Sun could find it in your heart to go out of your way, with even just a small donation, to help this family I’m certain the family would graciously appreciate your help. You can make your donations to the “Bonbon Family Recovery Fund” at Meredith Village Savings Bank, 24 State Route 25, PO Box 177, Meredith, NH 03253.

Thank you all so much and God Bless.

Gilford police detail hunt for Gunstock Acres burglary suspect

By Gail OBer

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA — Newly released court documents revealed footprints in the snow, a Facebook page and cell phone records were a few of the things that led Gilford Police to Brookline, Mass. and the arrest of the alleged Gunstock Acres burglar.

Kolby Fenner, 34, arrested in April

by Brookline Police, appeared before Judge Jim Carroll in Laconia District Court yesterday morning for a bail hearing and was ordered held on $50,000 cash only.

Fenner, who allegedly began his burglary spree in mid January waged a week long cat-and-mouse game with police, eluding capture at least twice during foot chases at times staying only a few steps ahead of police.

“He was tenacious,” said lead investigator Det. Christopher Jacques.

Fenner’s first close encounter allegedly came on Jan. 15 when he tripped a burglary alarm at 300 Cherry Valley Road at 7:45 p.m.

Responding police arrived and noticed someone had tried to pry their way into home. With fresh snow on the ground, police were able to photograph distinct footprints and tire tracks leading to adjacent Orchard Drive.

The next day, a Mountain Road resident called police and told them about some suspicious tire tracks in his neighbor’s driveway. He said he knew his neighbor’s primary home was in Lynn, Mass. and that no one should be at the house.

Responding police determined a 42-inch Vizio television was missing.

At 1:14 a.m. on Jan. 17, a Trail View Drive resident was looking through his security camera and reported seeing a suspicious male with a flashlight walking down his neighbor’s driveway.

Sgt. James Leach arrived and from preceding page We thank Dale Squires of Belknap Landscape Company and Appletree Nursery for the beautiful flowers on each table and also at the entrance to the dining area.

We also appreciated the input from one person with a terrific idea for another activity for the community to participate in during 2012. If anyone has ideas and/or would like to share/ join the committee, we meet at the Town Hall, meeting room A or B every third Tuesday at 4 p.m. and would

In January, Gilford police snapped this photo of the man they now say is Kolby Fenner as he walked along the road leading to Gunstock Mountain Resort. (Gilford Police photo)

determined there were no footprints leading from the home and called for backup. While police were clearing the home, Fenner allegedly jumped from the balcony of a second-story room and fled into the woods.

During his brief stay, he drank at least one of the owner’s beers.

Despite the ensuing search, he got away but again left footprints that were photographed.

About six hours later, Leach saw a man, later identified as Fenner, walking down Mountain Road near Hermit Lane. The two spoke and Fenner told Leach he was staying at a residence see next page

like to see more people and organizations joining to make the Bicentennial Celebration truly memorable in 2012.

A big THANK YOU from the committee members who planned and worked to ensure an enjoyable concert and meal.

from preceding page that he could no longer find with his girlfriend “Sara Johnson.”

Fenner gave Leach a New York State license identifying him as Michael Dennhardt of 216 Clinton St. in Oneonta. Leach said the man appeared nervous, but with nothing but a hunch to go on, he drove Fenner to Gunstock Mountain Resort and left him there.

After learning the identification was false, Leach returned to Gunstock and found Fenner walking away from Gunstock but Fenner refused to cooperate with him. Leach was able to take a few photographs of him.

Again, with nothing but a hunch, Leach let Fenner go. Jacques’s affidavit said he reached Leach after Fenner was relased and was able to again to photograph his footprints.

With footprints now traceable to someone who fits Fenner’s description, but without a name, police released Leach’s photograph of Fenner along with a media statement about the rash of burglaries on Jan. 17. It was published in The Laconia Daily Sun on Jan. 18.

About 3:40 p.m. on Jan. 17, police got a call from a construction team regarding a white 1991 Jeep with a California registration parked in a driveway on Ridge Line Loop. The contractors reported there were at least two televisions in it.

Leach went to the home and saw that someone had used a lever-type device to pry open the door. Footprints on the deck were identical to those photographed on at least three other occasions.

The home owner, who lives in Connecticut, said there should be a older flat screen television in the house but police didn’t find it.

Police ran the license plates on the Jeep through the system and learned it had been stolen from MIT in Cambridge, Mass. on Jan. 13.

With the owner’s consent, police impounded the Jeep and searched it, finding numerous televisions and a computer.

With Fenner now on foot, police gradually closed in on him.

At 7:39 p.m. the owner of a seasonal home on Mountain Drive reported someone had broken in to his home and several items appeared to be missing.

The owners also said some tools had been left behind, tools that matched the description of some tools that were in the Jeep when it was stolen.

The things the Mountain Drive home owner reported stolen matched some of the other items found earlier in the now impounded Jeep.

Just after midnight, now Jan. 18,

Officer Kevin Baron was investigating some fresh footprints in an Alpine Drive driveway when he noticed movement in the woods between Ridge Line Loop and Trail View Road.

Baron lit the area, observed Fenner — now identifiable by the clothing he wore and was wearing during his earlier encounters with Leach — ducking down in the snow.

Baron began chasing him, and for a third time, Fenner got away. This time he dropped his hat, which was recovered by police.

At 5:35 a.m. a Cumberland Road resident called police to them a man had just knocked on their door, told them he had gotten into fight with his girlfriend and asked them to call him a taxicab.

When the people went outside to find out if the man had money for the taxi, he had disappeared. Police found the same footprints in the Cumberland Road driveway.

Four days later, at :20 p.m. Jan. 22, a Hopewell, N.Y. man went to his seasonal home on Cottonwood Drive and discovered someone had broken into him home.

Police learned the driveway had been plowed at 10 a.m. that day by a caretaker who had observed old footprints in the snow. Police noticed fresh footprints matching Fenner’s — one set going in and one set going out.

Entering the home, police realized Fenner had apparently been staying in the Cottonwood Drive home going to great extremes to hide his presence.

They found material stapled over the windows, material placed over lamps and the thermostat raised.

Police said it appeared Fenner had eaten several meals and had been nursing some kind of wound.

After clearing the home, police searched around the home, found no new footprints and speculated Fenner had left when he realized the driveway had been plowed.

Police also learned a man had called Maggie’s Taxi and requested a cab to pick him up at Cottonwood Drive but they never showed.

A cab driver from Mr. C.’s Taxi confirmed he also received a call from the same residence and said his fare came running up the driveway and told him he was from Massachusetts and didn’t know how to get out of the neighborhood.

He paid in quarters. Police said people whose homes had been previously entered also reported losses of spare change.

The driver said his fare was wearing a black jackets, black pants and what appeared to be hiking boots. He was limping and unshaven and told see next page

NEWT from page 2 source of the tension between her husband and his staff. They say she exerted enormous influence on the former House speaker, controlling his schedule and encouraging him to disappear on a luxury cruise in the Greek Isles just weeks after he got into the race. That trip was the final straw, for some, who pleaded with him not to go.

These officials said Gingrich ceded to his wife’s wishes, which sometimes involved his curtailing necessary time on the campaign trail in key states like Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss private campaign business.

As criticism mounted, the candidate defended his wife’s involvement, saying that the two of them “make decisions as a couple.”

“I think most couples would find that refreshing and not a problem,” he said outside his home in McLean, Va., an upscale Washington suburb.

In fact, it may have been no different from other campaigns; friction between political spouses and from preceding page

the driver he had hurt his knee.

Now with a traceable phone number, police used E-911, “pinged” the cell phone location to Cambridge, Mass. in the same Massachusetts Institute of Technology neighborhood where the Jeep had been stolen.

A search warrant to T-Mobile revealed the phone was allegedly owned by Susan Fenner of Seattle, Wash. who initially denied owning the phone. Public records showed other possible relatives including a Kolby Fenney who was between the ages of 30 and 34.

Police also got evidence from T-Moble about all of the phone activity and the only call lasting longer that five minutes on Jan. 12 — the day before Fenner’s allegedly stole the Jeep, was to a Modesto, Calif. bakery whose proprietors were listed on line as “Carrie” and “Dawn.”

Modesto Police verified the bakery was owned in part by a woman named Carrie Cook.

paid campaign staff is common, with both competing for the candidate’s attention.

But several people involved in the campaign said Callista Gingrich was not the only problem.

Since Gingrich entered the race this spring, fundraising has been anemic and the combative former congressman has strayed off message repeatedly, most memorably in his NBC “Meet the Press” interview just days after entering the race in which he bashed a Republican budget plan that had passed the House as “right-wing social engineering.”

But Gingrich sometimes seemed more interested in placating his wife than serious campaigning. And Callista Gingrich’s iron-fisted control over her husband’s calendar made planning nearly impossible.

Gingrich would sometimes be late to meetings with donors because his wife needed some time at a hotel to freshen up. He would try to book trips so he could be home in time for his wife’s choir practice.

Admirable in a husband. But perhaps incompatible with the grueling schedule needed of a serious presidential candidate.

Jacques also found a Facebook page for Fenner that had a male snowboarder with a profile picture and public friends list. On that list was a Nevada woman named Dawn Havens who was also Facebook friends with Cook.

With a name and possible location, police records showed the man they now believe to be Fenner had previous addresses of Seattle and California. And with a birth date, Jacques learned Fenner had a criminal past in four states, mostly involving thefts of some kind.

He had once gotten a Massachusetts driver’s license in 2003 and in June of 2003 had two official contacts with police in Brookline, Mass. Jacques got a booking photo and Leach verified it was the same guy with whom he had dealt on Jan. 17.

Warrants issued, Fenner was arrested and held without bail by Brookline Police in April. He was extradited to New Hampshire Thursday morning.

Last week a Belknap County grand jury indicted Fenner on seven counts of burglary, one count of attempted burglary, and one count of receiving stolen property — a Jeep Wrangler stolen near MIT.

Laconia code enforcement director sees much substandard housing construction, urges council to keep ‘signed & sealed’requirement

BY MICHAEL KITCH THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA — Code enforcement director Bill Stewart has urged the City Council against repealing the section of the city code requiring “architecturally prepared plans, signed and sealed by a New Hampshire professional engineer or registered architect” for all single and multi-family homes.

The council will consider the issue when it meets Monday, June 6 beginning at 7:30 p.m.

Last month, Kevin Morrissette, a local homebuilder, asked the council to repeal the requirement, explaining that he was not aware that it has ever been enforced and noting that it would unnecessarily add approximately $3,000 to $5,000 to the cost of a new home.

In a memorandum to the councilors, Stewart stressed that repealing the code would compromise the safety and lower the quality of residential construction. Without the requirement, he said that safety would be left to a “contractor-designer, whose primary concern is almost purely one of self-interest” by containing the cost to increase the profit,

which would lead to “cutting corners on safety.”

Stewart reminded the council that another section of the code provides that an engineer or architect, apart from preparing the drawings, may also supervise the work on site by filing an affidavit that all codes will be met. Moreover, the code enforcement director is authorized to waive all fees and inspections on jobs for which such affidavits are filed.

Stewart said that the code reflects the value the city assigns to safety in construction and the confidence it places in engineers and architects to ensure it.

Stewart described the quality of finished homes in Laconia as “substandard” compared to other states like Arkansas and Mississippi where poor quality is expected. “There is good work being done in Laconia,” he hastened to add, “but only a few contractors do it.” Enforcing standards, he said, is necessary to improve quality.

Professional, as opposed to hand-drawn plans, Stewart claimed, would enhance the work of tradesmen and increase the efficiencies of construction while improving the quality of the final product.

MANAGER from page one five of the candidates they interviewed were qualified. The two finalists, he said, each brought different qualifications and perspectives to the position, which made the choice a challenging one.

Jutton will prepare a conditional agreement over the weekend, which the council will approve at its regularly scheduled meeting on Monday, when Jutton will be authorized to present it to the success-

ful candidate. Once the offer is accepted, the necessary criminal, credit and legal background checks will be authorized and the identity of the next city manager announced.

The new manager will succeed Eileen Cabanel, who left the post last month after serving for 10 years. She is now the town manager is Merrimack.

Finance Manager Pam Reynolds has been serving as interim city manager.

MONTANA from page 3 River levels were retreating throughout the state on Friday, but more rain this weekend was expected to cause flood waters to linger across southeastern Montana.

There, roads washed out by the raging Musselshell River left people in a sprawling rural neighborhood in the hills outside the town of Roundup with no way to get out.

Stranded residents were able to call in grocery orders that emergency officials delivered by boat, said Cassie Degner, a local volunteer firefighter. A trailer filled with water, diapers and other essentials had been brought into the neighborhood before access was lost Wednesday.

Mary Brower, 81, said she had not been able to get into town since May 20 and the roads have further deteriorated since that time.

“They’re going to bring in my medications today by, I don’t know, rowboat or whatever,” said Brower, who suffers from congestive heart failure.

Up the road from Brower, rancher George Smith said he and his wife, Loris, were rationing gasoline but otherwise planned to get by with “a few cans of different stuff we have on hand.”

“My wife makes corn bread and I’m a bean maker,” Smith said. “We might get to fighting a little bit, but we’re good for another week anyway.”

Regional sewer system board approves switch to ultra-violet over objections from Meredith & S’ton

BY MICHAEL KITCH THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

FRANKLIN — The Advisory Committee of the Winnipesaukee River Basin (sewer) Program (WRBP), consisting of representatives of the 10 member municipalities, this week lent its approval to installation of an ultra-violet disinfection system at the Franklin wastewater treatment plant by a vote of eight to two, with Meredith and Sanbornton casting the only dissenting votes.

The WRBP is the sewer system serving Laconia, Belmont, Center Harbor, Franklin, Gilford, Meredith , Moultonborough, Northfield, Sanbornton, and Tilton, whose ratepayers fund its operating budget and capital improvements. Its nearly 60 miles of sewer mains, 12 major pump stations and wastewater treatment plant handle an average of 6.2-million gallons of sewage per day. The system is owned by the state and administered by the Department of Environmental Services (DES), but its operation, maintenance and improvement are funded by the ratepayers of the member municipalities.

Town Manager Phil Warren and Water and Sewer Superintendent Dan Leonard of Meredith mounted a strident challenge to the $6.2-million U-V project, from preceding page tion of the downtown that has been swamped twice since the Musselshell started to rise in late May. Workers also were scrambling to rebuild a makeshift dike along the edge of town that was overtopped and severely eroded earlier in the week.

The main highway out of Roundup to Billings reopened Friday after being closed for two days when it was under water.

Repairs on the road into the cut-off neighborhood were not expected to begin for several days because portions of it remained under water, said Musselshell County Commissioner Sue Olson. Another boatload of groceries and other supplies was to be ferried into the neighborhood Friday evening.

which they claim is designed to excess capacity and reflects misplaced priorities.

The U-V system has a design capacity of 36-million gallons per day (mgd), three times that of the existing facility, to accommodate peak flows. Leonard explained that the peak flows, which occur briefly during severe storms, reflect high levels of “inflow and infiltration” (I & I) from groundwater and stormwater reaching the sanitary sewer network. Instead of more than tripling the capacity of the treatment plant, he believes the WRBP and member municipalities should improve the collection system to reduce the I & I, then, with an accurate measure of the required capacity, turn to the treatment plant.

Furthermore, the next project on the WRBP’s schedule is a metering and rate study, which will enable the program to measure the flow generated by each of its members and bill them according to their usage. Before the WRBP undertakes more major capital projects, Leonard believes the program should change the billing system, which will provide municipalities with an incentive to reduce I & I by improving their collection systems.

By adding capacity to the wastewater treatment plant and billing municipalities based on their sewer connections instead of their usage, Warren said the U-V project will offer no incentive to improve the efficiency of the collection system and lower the program’s operating costs.

DES countered that nearly $1-million had already been invested in designing and bidding the project and purchasing the equipment with funds from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. The winning bid was $1.6-million less than the engineer’s estimate and $1.2-million in federal funds and historically low financing costs further reduced the cost of the project.

Nevertheless, the controversy has to an effort to overhaul the governance of the WRBP that would assign a greater role to its members in planning and budgeting for capital improvements.

SYRIA from page 2 ments surrounding them.

Twenty-five miles (40 kilometers) to the southeast in the town of Maaret al-Numan, thousands of protesters overwhelmed security officers and torched the courthouse and police station, and the army responded with tank shells, a Syrian opposition figure told The Associated Press by telephone, speaking on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the matter.

Syria’s state-run television appeared to confirm at least part of the report, saying gunmen opened fire on police stations, causing casualties among security officials.

Syria’s government has a history of violent retaliation against dissent, including a three-week bombing campaign against the city of Hama that crushed an uprising there in 1982. Jisr al-Shughour itself came under government shelling in 1980, with a reported 70 people killed.

Confirming information out of Syria is difficult.

Communications are cut in areas where the uprising is strongest. Syrians who speak openly face retribution from the regime, and foreign journalists have been expelled.

Refugees trying to escape into Turkey, who now number more than 4,000, gave a more detailed pic-

ture of the events in the north.

A group of young men who arrived at the Turkish village of Guvecci on Friday said relatives who stayed behind told them Syrian forces were burning homes and fields in the village of Sirmaniyeh, near Jisr al-Shughour.

SALOON from page 3 “It’s just not safe to tear it down with all these people around,” Baldi said yesterday, adding she feared mostly for the damage the dust would cause to the vendors and motorcycles gathered on her family’s property at the next-door Weirs Drive In. In an conversation earlier this week, City Code Enforcement Officer Bill Stewart said “the drop dead date” for demolition was midnight on June 14 and, at this point in time, he “just didn’t know what to think.”

He said he has not issued a demolition permit and his office confirmed late yesterday afternoon that Baldi has not applied for one.

Carroll heard from both sides on May 26 and issued a ruling the next day that said the building had to come down on or before June 14.

“The Court orders that the building (is) to be demolished within 14 days beginning May 31, 2011 with the Court’s recognition of the present holiday

weekend, increased traffic presented by the noted Bike Week beginning June 10, 2011, and with the onset of the summer tourist season as schools are dismissed and families arrive,” Carroll wrote.

Although not included in his ruling, during the hearing Carroll said Stewart’s testimony that bikers would see the charred remains as “kindling and want to finish” the job was not in the statute.

Carroll reminded both sides that the issue before the court was about safety and a hazard posed by the building’s potential collapse, “not bikers.” His ruling determined the city had met it’s burden and the Wide Open Saloon had to come down.

According to Stewart, Baldi has until June 14 to appeal Carroll’s ruling to the Belknap County Superior Court. She said yesterday she has not filed an appeal but noted she, too, was aware of the time line.

Should Baldi not get an agreement from the city that is acceptable to Judge Carroll, her only option is to file the appeal or be in possible contempt of a

court order.

Stewart said if there is no appeal and the building is still not down, the city would have to return to court and get a ruling allowing it to tear it down and attach the expenses incurred through a lien on the property.

He said the demolition contract, if issued at the city’s expense, would have to go through an open bid proposal that could delay demolition as much as 60 to 90 days because of the required public postings and time involved in open bidding.

He declined to speculate on how much it would cost.

In a related matter, Baldi has also filed suit in Belknap County Superior Court against insurer Lloyds of London. The firm has apparently declined to pay the insurance claim filed by Baldi.

A response from Lloyds is due in the beginning of July.

The State Fire Marhsal’s Office has said the fire was accidental but, as of last week, had not completed the final report.

STOCKS from page 2 earnings and widespread economic growth, however slow, should lead to more gains in the coming months. “Anyone selling shares today has to be pricing in a recession,” he said. Most economists expect slow growth but not a recession.

Shares had bounced back Thursday, breaking six straight days of losses, after U.S. exports unexpectedly hit a record in April. By Friday morning, those gains had evaporated. The losses were widespread, with declines across all 10 of the S&P 500’s industry groups.

Ablin suggested that Friday’s losses were partially driven by the Federal Reserve’s unloading of millions in risky mortgage bonds onto the market.

As big banks buy those securities, they dump assets such as stocks and high-yield corporate bonds.

Karyn Cavanaugh, vice president and market strategist with ING Investment Management, advised investors to stick out the market’s recent turbulence.

“The market doesn’t go up indefinitely; it’s not a straight line and it does get choppy at times,” she said. Cavanaugh said seven straight quarters of stronger-than-expected corporate earnings are a clear signal that the bull market will continue.

Aside from a promising report on higher exports Thursday, investors had little reason to cheer this week.

WILDFIRE from page 2 “I can’t even speculate on when we can let people back in, but I can tell you we’re not going to let people back in until we can be sure they will be safe and don’t have to leave again,” Whittington said.

On Friday, fire officials gave reporters the first look at two of the mountain communities — Alpine and Nutrioso — in nearly two weeks, driving them through the deserted resort towns and surrounding areas.

Some stands of trees in the forest were untouched while others looked like blackened matchsticks sticking up through lingering smoke. Firefighters were working in the area, using drip torches to light fires and burn out undergrowth.

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Saturday, June 11, 2011— Page 13

Home again, Vancouver edges Bruins 1-0 & stands 1 win away from cup VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) — With a fortunate bounce and a flawless goalie, the Vancouver Canucks are heading back to Boston with the chance to hoist the Stanley Cup for the first time.

Maxim Lapierre scored on a carom off the back boards with 15:25 to play, Roberto Luongo stopped 31 shots in a stirring shutout after getting pulled from his last game, and the Canucks moved to the brink of their first NHL championship with a 1-0 victory over Boston in Game 5 on Friday night.

Luongo helped Vancouver take a 3-2 series lead, posting his fourth shutout of the playoffs and second of the Stanley Cup finals after giving up 12 goals in less than four periods during two blowout losses in Boston.

“There was something about him before the game,” said Vancouver defenseman Kevin Bieksa, who set up the only goal. “he just seemed so comfortable, so confident. He was vocal, and usually he’s not a vocal guy. We thought it would be something special.”

Game 6 is Monday night in Boston, and the Stan-

ley Cup will be there.

The Canucks have scored just six goals in five Stanley Cup finals games against brilliant Boston goalie Tim Thomas, yet they’re one victory away from winning it all.

Neither team found an offensive flow in a Game 5 nail-biter, but Luongo kept Vancouver in it until Lapierre and Bieksa teamed up on a goal that set off a crazy celebration among tens of thousands of fans thronging downtown Vancouver.

Luongo was pulled from Game 4, but coach Alain Vigneault stuck with him for Game 5. The Olympic champion was only occasionally spectacular, but he still narrowly outplayed Thomas, who has received just two goals of support from his teammates in three games in Vancouver. “(Luongo) knows that we believe in him,” Vancouver forward Alex Burrows said. “He’s unreal.

We have so much confidence in him, and he doesn’t listen to what people outside this locker room say.

We know he’s the best goalie in the league.”

Thomas made 24 saves in Game 5, but lost his shutout streak of 110 minutes, 42 seconds dating to Game 3. With injured forward Nathan Horton’s jersey hanging in the visitors’ locker room, the Bruins’ power play regressed to its previous postseason struggles, going 0 for 4.

After two scoreless periods of stellar goaltending in which Boston went scoreless on four power plays, the Canucks finally connected with a supremely heady play by the veteran Bieksa, who used Thomas’ aggressive style against him.

Bieksa deliberately put a long shot wide of the goal, and when Thomas instinctively moved to his glove side to play it, the puck ricocheted off the back boards straight to Lapierre, who put it behind Thomas for just his second goal of the postseason.

“I hope I was trying to miss the net, because I missed it by about 8 feet,” Bieksa said. “I didn’t have a real good angle to the net, so I just put it up there and got a good bounce.”

Red Sox win streak reaches 7 as Buchholz’ pitching keys 5-1 win in Toronto

TORONTO (AP) — Clay Buchholz allowed three hits over seven innings, Jacoby Ellsbury went 3 for 5 with three runs scored and Boston beat the Toronto Blue Jays 5-1 on Friday night, the Red Sox’s seventh straight win to match their season high.

Buchholz (5-3) struck out six and walked two as he ended a career-long run of four straight no-decisions.

AL RBI leader Adrian Gonzalez drove in a run with a fifth-inning single that gave the Red Sox first baseman seven consecutive games with at least one run driven in. He drove in another run with a ground-rule double off reliever Shawn Camp in the ninth that made it 5-1.

Kevin Youkilis and Dustin Pedroia drove in a run each for Boston, which improved its league-best record to 37-26.

Pedroia, who returned to the lineup after miss-

ing Thursday’s series finale in New York so doctors could examine his sore right knee, finished 3 for 4 with an RBI and a run scored.

The loss snapped a two-game winning streak for Toronto starter Jo-Jo Reyes and dropped the Blue Jays to .500 (32-32).

Reyes (2-5) had gone a record-tying 28 starts without a win before beating Cleveland 11-1 on May 30 in the first complete game of his career.

The left-hander gave up eight hits and two walks before Blue Jays manager John Farrell replaced him with Luis Perez with one out and a runner on first in the seventh.

Perez hit a batter but escaped the inning without further damage, leaving the 27-year-old Reyes charged with four runs in 6 1-3 innings.

Pooch Café LOLA

By Holiday Mathis byproduct.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It feels as though you are being bombarded with requests. Random acts of kindness may be easier for you to carry out than answering these requests. You’d rather give to those who aren’t asking for anything.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

Low stress is your modus operandi. It’s part of what makes you so cool. Also, it’s as though you were born knowing that over-controlling a problem will only make it worse. Everything will be easygoing now.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

You will experience a victory, though it’s a personal and private kind of success. You may even choose not to tell a soul about the source of your newfound confidence.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You will retrieve something you lost long ago. Maybe you’ll discover it in the pocket of a jacket you no longer wear or in a purse or suitcase stored in the back of your closet.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Tackle the difficult tasks first. Your energy is best in the midmorning. Guard against interruptions so that you can fully focus on this very important and timely work.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 11). You share the love that flows through your heart in ever increasing amounts this year. This month brings the completion of a project. Abilities are refreshed over the next 10 weeks. In September, a love story has a happy ending that is really a new beginning. October brings domestic bliss. You’ll share a special connection with Aries and Capricorn people. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 7, 2, 13 and 34.

by Richard Thompson

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Loved ones lean on you too much. It’s not that you’re unwilling to be generous. It’s just that you’re not sure if what they are asking for is in the best interest of your relationship.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). There was a shred of innocence taken from you prematurely in childhood when someone told you that some magic isn’t real. Some magic is real. You’ll find a way to believe again.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). There will be no shortage of hectic changes and pressures to contend with, and yet you navigate your life with a genuine smile on your face. You realize that you have it good.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). The need for nurturing is persistent. It nags at you in the middle of a busy day and has even awakened you from your dreams at night. This kind of nurturing is something you can and must provide for yourself.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It’s another one of those rare and beautiful days when you don’t have to try very hard to be noticed. Your mouth moves and people listen. So be certain of your words. Do your research.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There’s a difference between trying to achieve the impossible and just being impossible -- a difference that someone close to you has yet to realize. You might want to point it out to this person this evening.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You have brought many people happiness lately, though it was hardly an effort, because you are in alignment with the universe. You do what you want to do, and the happiness of others is a natural

Lakes Region Real Estate Market Report / Roy Sanborn

Waterfront Report: a banner month on Winnisquam There were just four sales on Lake Winnipesaukee in May but that does equal last May’s tally although the average sales price was lower at just $1.053-million compared to an average of $1.727 last May. Last May there were three sales over a million, one of which came in at $3.9-million helping to boost that average.

The least expensive sale on Winnipesaukee last month was at 20 Railroad Ave in Alton. This is an updated two bedroom, 744-square-foot seasonal camp sitting on a .16-acre lot with 40-ft. of waterfront. The big selling feature here is that this small cottage has really big, panoramic views from the large deck. This lakeside retreat was listed at $429,000, reduced to $389,000, and sold for $355,000 after 266 days on the market. The current tax assessment for is Alton waterfront is $401,500.

Another completely renovated waterfront home at 177 Kingswood Road in Wolfeboro also attracted a new buyer. This 1980 vintage, 3,400-square-foot, three bedroom, five bath contemporary home was put on a new foundation and stripped right down to the studs. The only thing reused were the beau-

tiful fir floors. Everything else is new-inside and out. The home features a custom kitchen with beautiful cabinetry, granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, a lakeside living room with gas fireplace, a family room in the walk out basement, and three bedrooms all with private baths. The home sits on a level one acre lot with southern exposure and gorgeous views.

There is 119-ft. of frontage, a sandy beach, and a forty foot dock for the new owners to enjoy now that summer is finally here. This home was on the market for 305 days starting at a list price of $1.995-million, with several price reductions down to $1.595, with an offer accepted at $1.47-million. The current tax assessment for this property is $1.352-million.

The largest sale for the month was at 112 Hopewell Road in Alton. This is a 3,192-square-foot, four bedroom, three bath, classic lake home with a large wrap-around porch that is perfect for telling tales on. The home was built in 1999 on a 2.18-acre lot on Roberts Cove that offers great privacy, westerly views, stunning sunsets, 296-ft. of frontage, plus a U-shaped dock with breakwater. The tale of the sale on this home is a long one. It was first offered

in December 2005 at $3.9-million, in October 2006 for $2.995-million, in 2008 for $3.1-mil, and in 2010 for $1.6-as a short sale. This year it was listed for $1.59- million and found a buyer at $1.5mil after 168 days. The listing doesn’t say that it was a short sale, but the fact that it was under contract for only 39 days before closing would mean that it wasn’t. It probably just felt that way to the seller…The property is current assessed at $1,46,200.

Over on Winnisquam there were five sales which is actually a banner month for this lake! That puts the tally for the first five months up to 15 sales compared to 10 for the same period last year.

Three of the five sales occurred on Leighton Ave in Laconia which is a little unusual. The largest sale was at 140 Leighton Ave North in Laconia. This Japanese influenced contemporary home built in 1980 has 1,580-square-feet of living space, three bedrooms, two baths, a massive stone fireplace in the living room, a sauna, and a newly remodeled kitchen with granite countertops, cherry cabinets, and Jenn–Air appliances. The home literally is on the water as the decks actually overhang the lake.

You can imagine how great the views are! The house sits on a .85-acre lot with 369-feet of frontage. There is even a Japanese Tea House straddling a babbling brook that is accessed by a small bridge. Kind of makes you want to watch a rerun of the Karate Kid. It was a bit of a struggle to get this property sold. It was listed originally in 2009 see SANBORN page 23

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Saturday, June 11, 2011— Page 19

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Dear Annie: I am in my late 50s, divorced, with a career that spans 30 years. I have been successful in my life with one exception -- relationships.

I have been with “Ted” for more than seven years. The first half was good, but the second half has been a constant struggle. The problems began when Ted retired at age 55. His addictions flourished -- excessive drinking, credit card spending and Internet usage. The problem is, Ted has too much time on his hands and nothing constructive to keep him busy. He is borderline bipolar, and when he drinks, he becomes difficult to be around. Ted also suffers from erectile dysfunction, which causes sexual and emotional imbalances in our relationship.

I have asked Ted to get help with his addictions, but he refuses. I have sought counseling on my own to help me cope with this situation, and I returned to church looking for answers. I love Ted, but his behavior over the past four years has been a huge turnoff. Is this relationship beyond repair?

-- Bewildered in Vermont Dear Vermont: It is beyond repair if Ted refuses to do anything to help himself and you can no longer tolerate his behavior. There are 12-step programs for addictions, there is medication for erectile dysfunction and bipolar disease, and above all, there is counseling for those willing to work on their problems and their relationships. Give Ted one more chance to come with you for therapy. If he still refuses, ask yourself whether you are better off with him or without him.

Dear Annie: My husband passed away two months ago.

My in-laws contacted me the first week after the funeral, asking for “stuff” that had belonged to him. Since then, I haven’t heard a word.

We used to have get-togethers several times a year, and I thought of them as my family, but I guess I was wrong. I joined an online widow/widowers group and found out just

how often this happens. The vast majority of those in my group have had the same experience.

I hope you will ask your readers to see if they are giving the cold shoulder to someone who really needs family right now.

Why would they want to make someone feel so badly? My husband may be gone, but I am not, and I miss this side of my family. -- How Sad Dear Sad: Some family members assume that newly widowed in-laws are not interested in maintaining a relationship.

People forget. People are busy. There are a million excuses not to do what’s right, but staying in touch works both ways. If you miss your in-laws, pick up the phone and call them. Invite a sister-in-law to dinner. Ask the cousins how they’re doing. If you want these relationships to continue, you will have to be the one to do the heavy lifting. We hope it’s worth it.

Dear Annie: I read the letter from “Dismayed in the Boston Area” with interest. As a young Jewish woman in 1976, I married a man with a Christian- sounding last name. My rabbi counseled me that there would come a time when I was presented with anti-Semitism by persons who did not know I was Jewish, and I would have to choose whether or not to respond.

A few short years later, while working at a large financial institution, some co-workers were discussing Jews in a negative manner. I listened intently and then quietly commented, “None of the Jews I know is like that.” Everyone turned and asked who I knew who was Jewish, and I replied, “My husband, my children, my parents, my siblings, my aunts and uncles, my grandparents and me.” The shocked looks on their faces told me that speaking up had been the right choice.

I never heard another anti-Semitic remark from them again, and a few actually were decent enough to apologize for their bigotry. -- Midwest Jew

will serve to reduce future residential and commercial property losses from hazardous events before they occur. The most significant areas of concern were determined to be threats to existing infrastructure, including flooding on specific roads, dam safety, and winter weather. During development of the Plan, community leaders were able to identify goals and actions to reduce the impacts of these hazards. The Plan is also a useful tool for leveraging additional sources of funding prior to, or in the event of, a natural disaster.

The Committee would like to invite local businesses, citizens, and neighboring municipalities to comment on the DRAFT Hazard Mitigation Plan 2011 update. The Plan is now available for review at the Academy Building. Comments on the Plan can also be addressed to David Jeffers, LRPC via e-mail at djeffers@lakesrpc.org or by postal mail sent to 103 Main Street, Suite #3, Meredith, NH 03253.

All comments must be received by noon on Monday, June 20.

from preceding page On May 27, Fortin assumed a new position at a recently opened medical center in North Conway, considerable closer to her home. The Meredith Public Health Nursing Association wishes her all the very best.

While the Board of Directors undertakes a search to fill the position of executive director, Pat Heaney, a long-time registered nurse and employee of MPHNA, will assume those responsibilities.

SANBORN from p. 18 and 2010 at $799,000 and at $749,900 this year. It was reduced to $649,000 with a deal accepted at $605,000 after a total of 977 days on the market.

The current tax assessment on this property is $645,200. I bet the former owner was happy to finally say “Sayōnara” to this on.

Right now there are about 275 waterfront properties available on Winnipesaukee and 27 available on Winnisquam from as little as $189,000 to just over $10 million with lots of deals in between.

Maybe you can find your own great deal on the water this summer!
