Design work on first phase of Belmont’s recreation trail expected to begin later this year BY GAIL OBER
THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
BELMONT — The Mosquitto Bridge to Laconia phase of the regional recreational trail system could begin its design phase as soon as September said town land use technician Rick Ball this week. Ball said the project, for which the BRATT (Belmont Recreational Alternative Transportation Team) has raised $850,000, 80-percent of which is coming from the N.H. DOT Transportation Enhancement Program, awaits a confirmation of the negotiated overhead rate (the rate contractors will be able to charge for their services) — after which Ball can negotiate the final easements needed. Ball was also planning to meet with Alan Beetle and Diane Hanley of the WOW (WinnisquamOpeechee-Winnipesaukee) Trail group in Laconia to discuss the joining of the two trails. All short section of trail already exists along Rte. 3, on both sides of the town line. Phase I of the WOW Trail — downtown see BRATT page 12
All revved up with no place to go Bike Week traffic was backed up on Rte. 3 South in Meredith on Friday afternoon from the main intersection in the village, past the roundabout at Parade Road and down the hill all the way to Picnic Rock Farm. The riding weather was perfect, though — sunny and not too hot — and these motorcycle enthusiasts stuck on the roundabout didn’t seem to mind to much. (Laconia Daily Sun photo/Ed Engler)

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama suddenly eased enforcement of the nation’s immigration laws Friday, an extraordinary step offering a chance for hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants to stay in the country and work. Embraced by Hispanics, his action touched off an election-year confrontation with many Republicans. Mitt Romney, Obama’s GOP election foe, criticized the step but did not say he would try to overturn it if elected. Obama said the change would become
effective immediately to “lift the shadow of deportation from these young people.” “Let’s be clear, this is not amnesty, this is not immunity, this is not a path to citizenship, this is not a permanent fix,” Obama said from the White House Rose Garden. “This is the right thing to do.” The administration said the change will affect as many as 800,000 immigrants who have lived in fear of deportation. It bypasses Congress and partially achieves the goals of the “DREAM Act,” legislation that would have provided a pathway to cit-
izenship for young illegal immigrants who went to college or served in the military. Under the administration plan, illegal immigrants will be able to avoid deportation if they can prove they were brought to the United States before they turned 16 and are younger than 30, have been in the country for at least five continuous years, have no criminal history, graduated from a U.S. high school or earned a GED or served in the military. They also can apply for a work permit that will be good for two years see OBAMA page 11
Police say breakup led Buffalo surgeon to kill lover & then himself BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) — A former Army weapons expert wanted for fatally shooting his ex-girlfriend killed himself with a gunshot to the head, quelling the risk of more bloodshed and silencing perhaps the only voice that might have answered the central question: Was a break-up enough to cause a gifted trauma surgeon widely beloved as a lifesaver to end two lives in a spasm of violence? After a two-day nationwide manhunt,
police found Dr. Timothy Jorden’s body in thick brush a half-mile from his Lake Erie shoreline home. A neighbor had reported hearing a gunshot from the area on Wednesday morning, and police with dogs found the body, dressed in surgical scrubs, on Friday morning. Authorities had been searching for Jorden since Wednesday morning, when 33-year-old Jacqueline Wisniewski was found shot to death in a stairwell at the
Erie County Medical Center. Friends said Wisniewski was afraid of the 49-year-old Jorden and had broken off their relationship some time ago. Police Commissioner Daniel Derenda said Jorden went to the hospital with a shotgun and a .357 Magnum pistol intending to kill Wisniewski because of their breakup. Jorden lured her to the hospital basement, where he shot her five times at see SURGEON page 6

Commercial
EAST HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — A man angry that a deli had fouled up his sandwich order decided to take his beef to police. The man, identified by police as Rother McLennon of East Hartford, called 911 on Wednesday and complained that he “specifically asked for little turkey and little ham, a lot of cheese and a lot of mayonnaise,” and the Grateful Deli in East Hartford got it wrong. “You’re calling 911 because you don’t like way that they’re making your sandwich?” the dispatcher asked. “Exactly,” McLennon replied. McLennon explained that that the person he was talking to at the deli was not the person who made the sandwich and was refusing to fix the problem. “I mean, I just want to solve this the right way,” he said. “Her sister made it, but she left. They are playing games with me, so I was just wondering if you could come by. I just want it resolved and I want to be able to come see 911 pag 8

Obama listens to rich liberals at his own peril Who does Barack Obama listen to? Not Republican politicians. Evidently weeks go by between his conversations with Speaker John Boehner, who determines what legislation comes to the House floor. Not Democratic politicians. We have it on good authority that he seldom talks to Democratic members of Congress. Lyndon Johnson used to be on the phone constantly, cajoling and inveigling but also on the alert for shifts in opinion. Speaker Tip O’Neill walked around the Capitol, asking member after member, “What do you hear?” In contrast, Obama, a former adviser told Vanity Fair’s Todd Purdum, “is a total introvert. He doesn’t need people.” But there is one group of people Obama has to listen to: the people who give him large sums of money. He recently attended his 150th fundraiser. That’s more than the number attended by the last four presidents put together. Obama has seen enough Architectural Digest-type interiors in Park Avenue triplexes and Beverly Hills mansions, and on the block in San Francisco’s Pacific Heights, where every house is owned by a billionaire, to develop an expertise in Louis XV walnut commodes and Brunschwig & Fils fabrics. He’s also had plenty of chances to absorb the advice of the kind of rich liberals who like to give money to Democratic presidents. And the evidence that he has taken some of that advice is his initiatives on three controversial issues, each of which involves serious political risk. The first and least risky of these stands is his endorsement of samesex marriage. Many Democratic money-givers, straight as well as gay, have strong convictions on this issue and were probably not appeased by his assurance that he was “evolving” from his opposition to it. Obama’s reversal will likely help him rekindle the enthusiasm that pro-same-sex-marriage young voters once felt for him. And there’s some polling evidence suggesting that his new stand has changed the opinion of many previously antisame-sex marriage black voters. Still, his move probably turned off some older voters and puzzled others who wonder why with a sluggish economy he was spending time on an issue that he said should be handled by the states. The second issue on which Obama seems to have been listening to his money-givers was the health insurance mandate requiring employers to pay for contraceptives and abortifacients. Many rich liberals feel strongly that women’s “repro-
ductive rights” (actually, the right not to reproduce) are so vital that government must ensure they have free access to contraception, even though it is widely available and inexpensive. That’s one view. Roman Catholic bishops and leaders of Catholic institutions feel that such services are sinful and refuse to provide them. They cite the Constitution’s guarantee of free exercise of religion, while the other side relies on what courts have called “emanations” and “penumbras” radiating from constitutional texts. The political point is that, as polling suggests, most Americans don’t like government forcing people to violate their religious convictions. That’s in line with tradition in a country that exempted those with religiously based conscientious objections from military service in a war in which more than 400,000 Americans were killed. The third issue is the Keystone XL pipeline, which would transport oil produced from tar sands in Canada to United States refineries and create thousands of jobs in the process. Earlier this year, Susie Buell Tompkins, John Kerry’s fourth-biggest money-raiser in 2004, picketed outside an Obama fundraiser at San Francisco’s W Hotel to protest the pipeline. She wanted Obama’s State Department to block it because she thinks tar sands production hurts the environment and the planet. Our neighbors the Canadians, who are not unconcerned about the environment themselves, disagree. The pipeline’s promoters say it would produce 20,000 American jobs and would tend to lower U.S. gas prices. Obama came out on Tompkins’ side and blocked the pipeline. If the same-sex marriage reversal seems somewhat risky politically and the contraception mandate considerably riskier, the Keystone pipeline decision seems downright foolish politically. Voters tend to favor it by two-to-one margins — and if they’re not aware of it, the Republicans (and maybe the propipeline unions) will make sure they are. When given a chance to draw new boundaries of his state Senate district in 2002, Obama made sure to include Chicago’s richest lakefront neighborhood. He’s been working hard to court rich liberal contributors ever since. The question is, is he listening to anyone else?

LETTERS Dubois has slandered many who truly cared for State School residents To the editor, Every time I read an article about Gordon Dubois and his propaganda movie, “Lost in Laconia”, it really gets my goat. He insinuates that every single solitary person who EVER worked at LSS&TC was nothing shy of pure evil ... from direct care to the grounds crew ... generations of pure undaunted evil. Well, Mr. Dubois I beg to differ! In his film he shows footage of the residents wandering aimlessly,crying, being restrained and mistreated by staff who simply ignored their cries. Footage that was taken in the early years (all prior to 1976). He also shows footage of the windows with all the paint chipping and the buildings run down and falling apart... the way it looks today — after being closed for years and unattended, NOT the way it looked when it was open and people lived there. I’d like to know why Mr. Dubois did NOT include footage from the 1980s... footage that included the Beach Parties on Lake Winnisquam, the Soap Box Derbies, Winter Carnivals, Just for Fun Parades, Christmas and Halloween Parties, Monthly Birthday Parties? Why was there no mention of the immaculately kept lawns or the beautiful spring tulips and daffodils, the amazing Christmas displays that people would travel from miles away to ogle over as they do at La Sallette? Why was there no mention of the rec therapist who would carry the extra insurance (at his own expense) on his pontoon boat so he could take the clients for boat rides on Lake Winnisquam? Mr. Dubois also neglected to tell the world about the trips we would take these people on... like the Cog Railway, the Tram at Mt Whittier, riding the M/S Mount Washington on Lake Winnipesaukee, fishing trips, overnight camping trips, days at the ocean. Did these events not count for anything? Throughout my life I have had a connection to LSS&TC. Both my grandmothers and one of my aunts were building charges, one of my grandfathers ran the farm, the other was the barber, Uncle Earl was the
maintenance supervisor, Uncle Bob ran the grounds crew, Uncle Tom was security, my husband held many jobs in his 16 years there, including painter, groundsman, laundry,and food service, and I, myself , joined the crew after high school as direct care along with my aunt Patty and a couple of my cousins. I am here to tell you without a moments hesitation that we gave to these people from our hearts as did many, many others who I could easily list but there is only so much paper. I find it extremely rude and slanderous for Mr. Dubois to lump us all into one category Furthermore, after seeing “Lost in Laconia”, I realized that some of the footage included images of my grandfather... so I decided to ask each and every member of my family if they ever signed a release for this footage... and GUESS WHAT!!... NO ONE did! So what do you say to that Mr Dubois? We may have had to agree to let the state use our images for their records but YOU sir are not the State of New Hampshire. Does making the 1980s staff look like animals make you feel better.? Does it relieve some of your guilt for your part in all of it? Weren’t you a “PC”...(for those not in the lingo loop that’s a program coordinator... they were the ones who told the staff how to handle the residents, how to discipline, when to medicate, as well as when and how to restrain). After all we just did as you and others like you told us to. The footage Mr. Dubois chose to use in his film was taken from a time period with a different mentality, an era where marrying off your 13-yearold daughter to the widower across town was acceptable... when beating your wife in order to keep her in line was the norm. None of it was taken from the time AFTER the buildings went ICF. Maybe I wouldn’t have such a bitter taste in my mouth over this film if Mr. Dubois had shown the WHOLE picture.

LETTERS Let’s have intelligent discussion of where funds might come from To the editor, A recent letter to this paper said, to paraphrase loosely, that I don’t know what I am talking about when I say the Republican Legislature is ruining the education in N.H. Here are some of the reasons I wrote that. They cut funding to the state university system 48-percent. We already were 50th in state support of higher education They raised the business tax, but not to pay for education. They proposed making kindergarten optional. They proposed lowering the dropout age. Parents can now demand a special curriculum if they don’t approve of what is being taught in Biology class about evolution. They authorized the transfer of $130-million of public school funds to private and religious schools over 10 years as tax credits to businesses that provide scholarships for students who attend these schools. These dollars will be deducted from state funding for local public schools for students who attend these schools. Local taxpayers will have to make up the loss. There are a number of other bills that are destructive of public education that have been debated and may still become law. The writer asked where the money is coming from to pay for better funding of education. As a starter we could reinstate the cut they made in the tobacco tax. Then
let’s have an intelligent discussion of what the state needs and where funds can come from. Many already pay an income tax on unearned income. There is a sales tax on meals and rooms. There are taxes on gasoline and tobacco, so what is so sacred about not having a broad based tax targeted at supporting education? N.H. can hardly be accused of wastefully overfunding education. On a much more positive note. In the same letter, I wrote that I would pay $50 for the best slogan on education that I received. I am pleased to say that I received a number of slogans. These people know what education means in a person’s life. I know the truth, and so do a lot of others. As the judges of the slogans were stuck with so many good ones we decided to do what J.P. of Laconia suggested and give it to the library with the stipulation that it buy readable books on the history of this country. Here are the best of the bunch: “Education is a right, not a privilege”; “Write on kids”; “Graduate to accelerate”; “A good education means a solid foundation”; “How far you go is up to you”; “Only you can make a difference”; “Pay the freight to educate”; “Inquiring minds want to know” The last two from J.P. Let’s all vote for better education for our kids while keeping these slogans in mind. Kent Warner Center Harbor
Leo’s distortion of what Meade wrote may be closer to reality To the editor, Re: Leo Sandy’s reply about Bob Meade and women’s pay (Daily Sun 6-12-2012). It seems that Leo is trying to say that the more education you get, the dumber you get. Leo, tell us why the vast majority of teachers below 9th grade are women (paid far more per hour than 90-percent of male laborers. Yet at college and grad school levels you find far more men, also paid far more that private sector jobs. We hire a lot of work at home people to sew our sleeping bags, tents, and clothing. ALL are women, maybe because they are far better than men at that job. I personally hire people to bring in our heating fire wood. ALL are MEN, because we can’t find any women who will do the job. Are we guilty of pay discrimination? I firmly believe that Leo has lived on the government dole too long, so has lost all understanding, thus his reliance on quoting other people’s writings (which Leo clearly doesn’t comprehend). Leo must get into the real world, and recognize that people really differ a LOT. Girls are raised
to believe their highest calling is to stay healthy, beautiful, and marry a successful hard-working man to care for them and the children. But, many don’t fit the restrictive mold, and go on to achievements far above average. Their success should be honored, not viewed as a problem for others. Please look at Walmart as the best equal opportunity business. The variety of help they need allows them to hire those who can’t do well except in that limited situation. Also at Walmart you find many bright and extremely helpful people, also paid for what they can and will do. To sum it up: Leo’s distortion of what Meade wrote, may be closer to reality than Meade wrote. Men do perform better than women, in many types of jobs, and women out perform men in many others. In any case, the PAY is set to performance results (unless it is a government “job”). Leo, I will hire you anytime to bring in our firewood, starting at $8 per hour, subject to increase or decrease based on results. Same goes for any women. Jack Stephenson Gilford
New Riverside Cemetery was vandalized; this is a felony crime To the editor, After a year of no vandalism, The Alton Cemetery Trustees are sorry to report that over the weekend of June 9 and 10, the New Riverside Cemetery was once again violated. Planters were stolen, flowers strewn about, row markers kicked over and evidence of tire tracks on the lawn was evident.
during that time in and around the cemetery, please call the Alton Police Department. We’d like to point out that taking anything from a cemetery is a felony punishable by jail time and/or a fine and that charge will follow you for a lifetime. Karen Poor

ASSISTED LIVING FOR SENIORS
Fifth graders Jack Conley and Skyler Tautkus help plant a Liberty Elm Tree at the Pleasant Street School Friday morning. (Roger Amsden photo for the Laconia Daily Sun)
ELM from page one Hamel and Seymour used the ceremony to provide students with a history lesson about the Liberty Elm Tree as well as to provide an example of how students can make a difference in the lives of others through their own personal effort. ‘’It’s not a matter of age or money. Use this an example of what you can do. If you’ve got a good idea, work to make it happen,’’ said Seymour. Hamel said that the original Liberty Tree Elm was a huge tree near the Boston Common where on August 14, 1765 the Sons of Liberty held their first meeting and later hatched the plans for the Boston Tea Party as a protest against English taxation. The tree was later cut down on August, 14, 1775 and converted into 14 tons of firewood by British troops occupying Boston as a last act of violence prior to their evacuation. Dutch Elm Disease decimated American Elm trees in the 1940s but a disease-resistant variety, the Ameri-
can Liberty elm, was developed by The Elm Research Institute in Harrisville, N.H., in 1983 and has since been widely distributed across the country. Hamel’s Good Earth charity got its start in 2005 with the “Garden of Hope,” a neighborhood beautification project dedicated to a neighbor living with ALS (commonly known as Lou Gehrig’s disease). He raised start up funds by launching a neighborhood newspaper, titled The Birchwood Way Chronicle that he peddled to neighbors. With the proceeds, he purchased plants he sold to neighbors to beautify their own yards and raise more money, and donated to creating and maintaing a flower garden for his neighbor Jane. At her special request, he also planted tomatoes. Later that year, struck by the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, Good Earth made it’s first cash contribution to the American Red Cross with the $140 remaining from the summer’s plant sales. see next page

Vermont man extradited to Laconia to face charges related to alleged beating of woman at Weirs Beach cottage By Gail OBer
LACONIA — A Vermont man who was extradited from White River Junction after allegedly beating a woman in a Weirs Beach cottage two weeks ago is being held on $5,000 cash-only bail. Police said Shawn Meiklejohn 42, of 796 Hathaway Road in White River Junction was sharing a cabin with a woman who told police the two had been drinking and arguing all evening on June 1 to June 2. At 2:30 a.m. Officer Holly Callanan and a second officer responded to a report of a domestic argument, but, although Callanan’s report indicated the victim appeared beaten and bruised, she refused to tell her about the incident. Callanan’s affidavit about the incident said the victim later sought medical attention at Lakes Region General Hospital, spoke with a victims advocate, and on June 3 called her to make a statement. She told Callanan she was treated for, among other things, a concussion. The woman told police that at some point Meiklejohn tried to leave the cottage and drive away in his pickup. She said she confronted him in the parking lot and tried to reach into
the truck to get his keys. She said he punched her in the head multiple times and left. The alleged victim told Callanan that Meiklejohn returned to the cottage after about 45 minutes and, because she had locked the door, he entered the cabin through a window. She said she was lying of the floor and he came over to her and kicked her repeatedly in the legs and back. She said he punched her a few more times and spit in her face. She also said he threatened to hit her in the head with a beer bottle and threatened to cut her with some scissors that he held to her face. The victim said Meiklejohn then sat on her chest and covered her mouth while putting pressure on her throat. She said he threatened to kill her and “snap her head like a Popsicle stick.” Police said Meiklejohn has a significant criminal history that included a conviction for first-degree assault, resisting arrest, violation of probation or parole and being a fugitive from justice. His new charges are two felonies complaints including criminal threatening and second-degree assault and five misdemeanors complaints for simple assault and one misdemeanor count of criminal threatening.
SURGEON from page 2 point-blank range. He then ran from the hospital and drove home, where surveillance video showed him arriving about 30 minutes later. Just four minutes later, Jorden is seen leaving the house, down a path to a ravine and disappearing into the woods. Derenda said Jorden killed himself with one shot to the head from the .357 Magnum and didn’t leave a suicide note. He had withdrawn large sums of money recently and had given friends gifts. As Jorden’s tailspin accelerated, friends, neighbors and colleagues painted a picture of a man in decline. Jorden, once 250 pounds and clean-shaven, had lost up to 75 pounds and let his face get scraggly. His neatly manicured lawn got overgrown. He just didn’t seem the same; not as “nice” as before, was how neighbor June Dupree put it. Dupree said she was distraught over what had happened. “It doesn’t make any sense that he did that and that he killed himself,” she said. “Oh, my God, it’s just terrible. I can’t get over it. I’m just about in tears right now.”
She said everybody loved Jorden. “He saved so many lives,” she said. “This is what doesn’t make sense. There’s got to be more to it.” At the medical center, staff members were left to mourn the death of a respected administrative assistant and try to fathom how two lives could end this way. “We are just starting the healing process and trying to cope with an incomprehensible event,” said Jody Lomeo, the hospital’s chief executive officer. SWAT teams had spent hours Wednesday searching the home without success. On Thursday, neighbor Tom Wrzosek told police he had heard a gunshot from the steep, thick terrain behind Jorden’s house the morning before, about 90 minutes after Wisniewski was gunned down at the hospital where she and Jorden worked. Some of her friends told local media outlets that Jorden stalked her after she ended the relationship. One of her friends told WIVB-TV that Wisniewski told her the doctor had put a GPS tracking device in her car and once held her captive in her home for a day and a half, wielding a knife.

from preceding page In 2006, looking to raise more money to broaden Good Earth’s impact, Hamel launched an annual Walk-AThon and 5K roadrace. In its first year it raised over $7,000 and Hamel has continued to organize and grow the event over the last five years. Since that time Good Earth has donated money to Nets for Life to purchase sleeping nets for families in malaria infected regions of Africa, a local fundraiser to pay a community member’s cancer treatment costs, and the Laconia High School Holiday
Fund to purchase hats, mittens, socks and other personal items to be stuffed into holiday bags for 100 high school students. Last year Hamel was the recipient of a $5,000 scholarship from the Association of Fund Raising Professionals Youth in Philanthropy program. “[Brandon is] an upstanding and positive role model to his peers, hero to his charities, and has commitment to his fellow human beings and initiative beyond his years,” Laconia High School counselor Holly Vieten wrote in her nominating letter for the scholarship.

LACONIA — Dan Ward, superintendent of the Belknap County Department of Corrections, this week recommended to the Belknap County Commission that they contract with the American Institutional Medical Group, LLC to improve the quality and reduce the cost of providing medical care to inmates of the county jail. Ward told the commissioners that the county currently contracts with a private physician, Dr. Alastair Craig, to provide medical services. However, Craig, who lives on Cape Cod in Massachusetts, spends only about four hours a week at the facility, billing $1.66 per minute for his services. Ward said yesterday that although the county pays around $20,000 a year for Craig’s services, its budgets $200,000 a year for the medical care of inmates and the cost is rising. Without the regular presence of a physician, county nurses are limited in the care they can provide and treatment cannot be closely monitored, which together has led to frequent visits to Lakes Region General Hospital and unnecessarily high costs for prescription medications. In addition, Ward said that skeleton coverage could leave the county open to liability. The American Institutional Medical Group, whose principals are a physician and physician’s assistant with the Dartmouth-Hitchcock Family Practice in Manchester and Bedford, would provide services on scheduled workdays at times agreed with the Department of Corrections while being available for consultation or emergencies 24 hours a day, seven days a week. At a minimum services would include routine examinations and necessary treatment according

to the standards prescribed by the National Commission of Correctional Health Care. In addition, the group would monitor hospital visits to ensure the admission was necessary and the length of was appropriate and prepare a drug formulary, prescribing generic drugs whenever possible. The company has proposed a three-year contract with a monthly fee of $7,333 the first year, $7,553 the second year and $7,779 the third year, along with escalator clauses increasing the fee if the average daily population exceeds 130 inmates or reaches 140 inmates. Ward said the savings from foregone trips to the hospital and unnecessary costs of prescriptions will more than pay for the contract. “The ambulance can cost more than $500 and every visit to the emergency room is a minimum of $1,500,” he explained. Moreover, Ward anticipated that the partnership with the American Institutional Medical Group will enable the county to control its high and rising cost of caring for inmates. The annual cost of the contract is $88,000, or $44,000 for the remaining six months of 2012. Ward said that he has yet to spend half his budget for medical care, leaving a balance in excesss of $100,000, more than enough to pay for the contract. At the request of the commissioners he has prepared a financial analysis of the proposed arrangement for them to consider at their next meeting on June 27.

She said he was told that because the sandwiches were special orders, the deli couldn’t take them back. She said he used her phone to call police. McLennon called the deli back on Thursday to apologize, she said. “I think the customer realized how wrong he was,” she said. No charges have been filed.

EPA to hold public meeting in Laconia about possible dry cleaning fluid contamination By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — The United States Environmental Protection Agency will host a public meeting on Wednesday, July 18 in the multi-purpose room at Laconia Middle School to present information and answer questions about air and groundwater quality in the vicinity of Henry’s Dry Cleaners on Pleasant Street, where the agency conducted an assessment in March. Groundwater samples collected between 1986 and 2007 at the nearby former Allen-Rogers factory detected excessive levels of tetrachloroethene, or PCE or PERC, a manufactured chemical used in the dry-cleaning industry. The New Hampshire Department of Environmental Ser-
vices (DES) concluded the contamination originated off the site. Since 2007, after Chinburg Builders, Inc. converted the factory buildings on the site to modern housing, the agency has monitored the air quality of units in the larger of the two buildings and in 2009 collected water and soil samples at Henry’s Dry Cleaners on nearby Pleasant Street that indicated PCE and other chlorinated volatile organic compounds may have escaped from the site at some undetermined time in the past. Last year, DES requested the help of the EPA in locating the source and extent of the contamination and last week the agency began sampling groundwater and air quality at Hensee next page

Janis Tsang, the on-scene coordinator for the EPA, said that apart from investigating “vapor intrusion,” she expected testing of soil and groundwater in the vicinity of Henry’s Dry Cleaners would enable the agency to locate the source of the contamination and chart a course for addressing it. The report on the recent round of testing is expected to be posted on the DES website by the end of next week and compact discs containing the report will be available at the meeting in July.

Raymond a late filer for Democrats in Sanbornton but both parties have ballot holes to fill by Wednesday By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — Both major political parties were left with empty slots on the ticket in Belknap County when the filing period for candidates entering the primary election for a seat in the New Hampshire House of Representatives closed yesterday. The only candidate to file on the last day was Ian Raymond of Sanbornton, a professional photographer, who will bid for one of the two seats in District 4, consisting of Sanbornton and Tilton, where he is the lone Democrat on the primary ballot. The nine districts in the county elect 18 representatives. During the filing period the Republican Party and the Democratic Party each fielded 14 candidates and between them filed a full slate in only two of the nine districts. Both parties have full slates in District 3 (Laconia), and District 9 (Laconia and Belmont) while Republicans have filled the ticket in District 4 (Sanbornton and Tilton), District 7 (Barnstead) and District 8 (Alton, Barnstead, Gilmanton) and Democrats in District 1 (Center Harbor and OBAMA from page 2 with no limits on how many times it can be renewed. The move comes in an election year in which the Hispanic vote could be critical in swing states like Colorado, Nevada and Florida. While Obama enjoys support from a majority of Hispanic voters over Republican challenger Romney, Latino enthusiasm for the president has been tempered by the slow economic recovery, his inability to win congressional support for a broad overhaul of immigration laws and by his administration’s aggressive deportation policy. Some Republicans in Congress — and the governor of Arizona, whose state has been at the center of enforcement controversy — strongly criticized the Obama action. But the response from Romney was more muted. Romney said Obama’s decision will make finding a long-term solution to the nation’s immigration issues more difficult. But he also said the plight of illegal immigrants who were brought to the U.S. as children is “an important matter to be considered.” During the Republican presidential primaries, Romney said he would veto the DREAM Act with its pathway to citizenship. Obama’s new policy tracks a proposal being drafted by Republican Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida, a poten-

New Hampton), District 2 (Meredith and Gilford) and District 6 (Belmont). Perhaps surprisingly, in District 2 (Gilford and Meredith), where Republicans easily outnumber Democrats, the Democrats have filed four candidates for the four seats, two from Meredith — Kate Miller and Sandra Mucci — and two from Gilford — Bill Johnson and Lisa DiMartino while only three Republicans filed — incumbents Colette Worsman and Bob Greemore of Meredith and newcomer Kevin Leandro of Gilford. No Republican filed in District 6 (Belmont), but two Democrats — Ron Cormier and George Condodemetraky — filed for the two seats. On the other hand, no Democrat filed in either District 7 (Barnstead) or District 8 (Alton, Barnstead, Gilmanton), both single-member districts. Party committees have until the close of business on Wednesday, June 20 to file nominations to fill the vacancies on the primary ballot with the Secretary of State. The primary election will be held on Tuesday, September 11. tial vice presidential running mate for Romney, as an alternative to the DREAM Act, formally the Development, Relief and Education of Alien Minors Act. Rubio said, “Today’s announcement will be welcome news for many of these kids desperate for an answer.” But, like Romney, he said it was “a short-term answer to a long-term problem,” and he added, “By once again ignoring the Constitution and going around Congress, this short-term policy will make it harder to find a balanced and responsible long-term one.”

Catholic hospitals reject birth control insurance compromise proposed by Obama WASHINGTON (AP) — Sharpening an electionyear confrontation over religious freedom and government health insurance rules, the nation’s Catholic hospitals on Friday rejected President Barack Obama’s compromise for providing birth control coverage to their women employees. The Catholic Health Association was a key ally in Obama’s health care overhaul, defying opposition from church bishops to help the president win approval in Congress. But the group said Friday it does not believe church-affiliated employers should have to provide birth control as a free preventive service, as the law now requires. The hospital group’s decision calls into question a compromise offered by the president himself only months ago, under which the cost of providing birth control would be covered by insurance companies and not religious employers. While churches and other places of worship are exempt from the birth control mandate, nonprofits affiliated with a religion, such as hospitals, are not. In a letter to the federal Health and Human Services department, the hospital group said the compromise initially seemed to be “a good first step” but that examination of the details proved disappointing. The plan would be “unduly cumbersome” to carry out and
“unlikely to adequately meet the religious liberty concerns” of all its members, the group said. While some liberal-leaning religious groups see no problem with the birth control rule, Roman Catholic bishops and conservative-leaning groups are treating it as an affront and calling it an attack on religious freedom. Institutions ranging from the
University of Notre Dame to Catholic Charities in several states to the Archdiocese of Washington have sued to block the rule. With the Catholic Health Association now voicing concerns, opponents gained a powerful endorsement. There was no immediate reaction from the Obama administration.
BRATT from page one Laconia to Lakeport Square — opened two years ago. Phase II will connect the existing 1.3-mile-long stretch with Belmont’s trail but the Laconia group still has to raise two-thirds of the $900,000 that design and construction are expected to cost. From a regional perspective, the inter-community trail was originally intended to begin in Franklin and extend into Meredith. Originally, BRATT Phase I was to follow Dutile Shore Road and the old Boston & Maine railway line but, because it is a private road, the town needed all of the residents to grant easements and all were not willing to do so. Ball said the original route would have required construction in some very steep slopes, which would have been prohibitively expensive. An amended route was proposed to again begin at Route 3 near the Mosquito Bridge and follow

the roadway until it reaches Piche’s Ski and Sports Shop. The trail was then going to dart in towards the lake and follow along the railroad tracks for a short distance and then cross the Suncook Village subdivision and continue to Laconia through stateowned property that was was once intended to hold an extension of the Laconia Bypass. In the two years since then, Ball said the owner of Piche’s changed his mind about granting an easement but added that the owners of the new Osborne’s Agway Store just up the road have agreed to allow the trail to cross their property on its way north toward the lakefront. The rest of the revised route will remain the same. By redesigning the route to run largely away from the railroad bed, Ball said the BRATT saved a considerable amount of money in fencing as there is a requirement for fencing along active railway lines. He also said the trail would not conflict with the intent of the DOT-owned property that is now specified reserved for conservation-uses only. Ball said once the DOT overhead rate is settled, something he expects within a week or so, he will have to negotiate four more easements before engineering and design work can being. “I have been working with these people (potential easement granters) for years now and don’t anticipate any opposition,” he said.

New Hampton woman one of lucky hunters to win coveted moose permit
CONCORD (AP) — More than 100 people showed up at the New Hampshire Fish and Game headquarters on Friday to swap hunting stories and find out if they had won one of 275 coveted moose permits. More than 13,400 people submitted applications for the lottery drawing. Each permit winner is assigned to one of 22 wildlife management units for the nine-day moose hunt in October. Gov. John Lynch pushed a button Friday to start the computerized random selection of the winners. Alice Jenness of New Hampton, who has entered the lottery every year since it began in 1988, was thrilled to hear her name called. She plans to use a rifle she inherited from her late father, who taught her how to hunt. “It’s very emotional for me,” she said. In the state’s first moose hunt, 75 permits were issued for a three-day hunt in the North Country. Last year, the state issued 395 moose hunting permits through the lottery. It gave out fewer permits this year because it wants the moose population to grow in some areas, the Fish and Game department said. The moose population has been affected by winter ticks, and suffering more deaths and reduced productivity, the department said. Last year, hunters took 290 moose, a statewide success rate of 71 percent. The names of the 2012 winners are posted on Fish and Game’s website.

According to police, while patrolling the Weirs, Officer Peter Horan found Ferguson lying in the roadway bleeding profusely from the mouth from facial injuries and lost teeth. He was taken to Lakes Region General Hospital for initial treatment where Horan found him to be impaired. Afterwards he was transported by ambulance to Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center for further treatment.
17 said killed in violent land dispute in Paraguay
ASUNCION, Paraguay (AP) — Paraguay deployed its army Friday to resolve a violent land dispute in a remote northern forest reserve after 17 people were killed in gunbattles between police and landless farmers. The clash prompted President Fernando Lugo to accept the resignations of his interior minister and his chief of police. The violence broke out as police tried to evict about 150 farmers from the reserve, which is part of a huge estate owned by a Colorado Party politician opposed to Lugo, who was a Catholic bishop before renouncing the priesthood to run for president. Among the seven officers killed was the brother of Lugo’s chief of military security. Ten farmers also were killed, and 27 other officers were injured as police kept up the firefights in the forest, some 150 miles north of the capital Asuncion. After firefights that lasted about eight hours, the farmers dispersed into the jungle and police took control of the reserve, said Gregorio Almada, security vice minister for the Interior Ministry. Lugo suspended his agenda and called a Cabinet meeting. He said the army has his support to put an
end to the violence and ruled out any connections to the Paraguayan People’s Army, a small leftist guerrilla group that has attacked rural police posts in the northern part of the country. “I extend my sorrow and repudiation of the actions that led to the killing of these people,” Lugo told reporters. Lugo didn’t explain why he accepted the resignations of Interior Minister Carlos Filizzola or Police Chief Paulino Rojas. The presidency didn’t say whether he had approved the eviction, or was even aware of it. The 4,900-acre (2,000)-hectare reserve is part of a vast ranch owned Blas Riquelme. “Twenty years ago we declared this a forest reserve but farmers have wanted to occupy it since last year,” said Jose Riquelme, the owner’s son. Activists for poor farmers, however, say Riquelme used his political influence to get the land from the state decades ago and that it should have been put it to use for land reform. Paraguay is the world’s fourth-largest supplier of soybeans and land disputes have risen in recent years as farmers seek more land to grow the country’s top export earner.

Laconia Police Captain Matt Canfield meets with some of the many officers who come to Laconia to help police Bike Week. (Laconia Daily Sun photo/Adam Drapcho)
For cops, Motorcycle Week is a lot of extra work, but many of them look forward to it By AdAm drApcho THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA - For the throngs of Bike Week attendees, the event is a chance to indulge their enthusiasm for motorcycling culture. Hospitality establishments see it as a way to kick-start the summer. There’s another significant contingent of rally participants: police. To them, such as Laconia Captain Matt Canfield, “It’s a lot of work.” The work for Bike Week begins in late February for Laconia police, when the department review previous years’ practices and begins planning for the coming year. “We take a look at last year’s operations, look at what we had for outside help,” Canfield said. That help is significant. On a typical weekend summer night, Canfield said the city might have six officers on duty. Tonight, the city will be patroled by about 30 officers, not counting state police. They’ll comb Laconia, using squad cars, motorcycles, mountain bikes, and many on foot, among the crowds of bikers and biker watchers. The extra help is focused on the Weirs Beach area,
party central for the rally. Or, depending on one’s perspective, ground zero. Of course, the rest of Laconia doesn’t take the week off from misbehavior during Bike Week. In addition to the challenge of policing the motorcycle rally, police still have a city to take care of. For example, Canfield was one of several officers who responded on Thursday night to a call from a woman who came home to find an unknown man in her Mile Hill Road apartment. “This is typical of what calls we go on, Bike Week or no Bike Week,” he said. Once the scene was under control, and officers were interviewing the man they would soon arrest on burglary charges, Canfield hopped back in his cruiser, Weirs Beach-bound. Canfield, with University of New Hampshire Police Department Lieutenant Steve Lee, explained Bike Week through the law enforcer’s eyes during a ride-along granted to The Daily Sun Thursday night. As much of an ordeal that Bike Week is for local police, he insisted that he enjoyed working see next page

Calif. Dems pass budget but kick tough decisions to Brown SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — California lawmakers passed a $92 billion budget Friday to keep their paychecks coming, but they left welfare cuts and other difficult issues unresolved with Gov. Jerry Brown. Democratic lawmakers in the Senate passed the main budget bill that outlines state spending on a 23-16 vote without Republican support. Majority Democrats in the Assembly also passed the measure, 50-25. The budget and a handful of companion bills were sent to Brown well before midnight, when a constitutional deadline would have cut off lawmak-
ers’ pay. But Democrats did not take up any of the contentious bills needed to implement the spending plan because they refuse to make deeper cuts to the state’s welfare-to-work program and other social services for the poor. That leaves more negotiations to come, since the Democratic governor wants welfare reform and a larger reserve to help pull the state out of its projected $15.7 billion deficit. And the whole package hinges on voters approving an initiative in November to raise taxes.
from preceding page during the rally, and his colleagues seem to agree. Lee has been coming to work Bike Week for 15 years and said it’s a favorite outside detail for many members of his department. While help comes from many nearby departments, state police and county sheriffs, UNH and Laconia share a particular arrangement. In a many-years-long relationship, Laconia officers will help UNH to help keep the peace at sporting events and graduation weekends, and campus police take their frat row experience to Laconia for Bike Week. “We’re used to large crowds, we’re used to alcohol issues,” said Lee. He said, about coming to Laconia, “I enjoy it, I get to see a lot of familiar faces.” “It’s something different,” Laconia Lieutenant Rich Simmons said, explaining why we enjoys the rally. “Bike Week’s changed a lot in the past five or six years. It’s a lot mellower.” That’s something that Canfield agrees with wholeheartedly. His first Bike Week on the job was 16 years ago. His first few rallies, he remembers, were “extremely busy.” For one thing, the crowds seemed at least twice as large, with Union Avenue clogged with traffic from downtown to the Gilford town line and alcohol-soaked parties up and down the sidewalk. Those were hotter, too, with temperatures hanging in the 80s well after sundown. There was so much police action required then that the department had to utilize two different radio frequencies — one for Weirs operations and another for all other city concerns. By now, “It’s drastically different,” Canfield said. The crowds are smaller — and far fewer extra police are called in as a result. Not only are there fewer people, he thinks they are behaving better. Sure, there will be incidents every day of Bike Week, and they’re almost all alcohol-related, he said, but in his estimation the volume of problems has fallen even more than can be explained by smaller crowds alone. Canfield points to two developments that have helped mellow the culture of the rally. The first, he said, was the enactment of an anti-nudity ordinance in the city, which quickly ended the practice of women, riding on a bike’s passenger seat, lifting
their shirts as they passed a whooping crowd. Another factor he points to is the department’s adoption of the “problem-oriented policing” philosophy, which changed the police officer’s role. Instead of waiting for someone to misbehave, and then making an arrest or citation, Canfield said officers now seek to address the causes of problems before a disturbance is created. For example, officers walk through areas where alcohol is being served and look for patrons who are beginning to show signs of intoxication. A conversation with the patron and the bar manager might resolve the issue, if necessary police may take the patron into protective custody. In either case, the action has averted the chance that further intoxication could lead to a fight or impaired driving. Canfield and Lee recalled another example from Wednesday night, when they observed a man, visibly intoxicated, leave a Weirs Beach nightclub and mount his motorcycle. Nearby officers could have waited for him to start the bike and then made an arrest. Instead, they approached and asked him if he was making a good decision. His options reconsidered, the man called a friend to pick him up. “People respond to that, too,” said Lee. “He was grateful.” No sooner did Lee finish the story than the cruiser passed a foursome of people walking away from Weirs Beach. “Was that beer?” Canfield, the driver, asked. “I think so,” said Lee. They were right, two plastic cups half-full with beer, another cup it’s holder said contained “Coke, mostly.” Because the open-container violators were cooperative and seemed to be in their right mind, they were allowed to proceed to their destination after pouring out their beverages. “We’re just trying to get compliance,” Canfield said. “People come from all over the country, all over the world, sometimes they just don’t know the rules.” Of course, the police logs show that not every interaction ends as amicably. “It’s been fairly quiet,” said Sergeant Mike Finogle, who was the on-site administrator of the Weirs Beach operations on Thursday night. Looking forward, though, he wouldn’t make predictions about the final weekend, with expectations of summer-like temperatures and a resulting crush of crowds.

Feds share new details of Whitey Bulger’s life on the run
BOSTON (AP) — A neighbor said the old man would sit up all night peering through binoculars. A handwritten sign on the apartment door said “Please Do Not Knock” because he slept during the day. But nearby residents had no idea that the man was really James “Whitey” Bulger, one of most wanted fugitives in the world. Hundreds of documents and photos released by federal prosecutors Friday offer a detailed look inside the California apartment where Bulger and his longtime girlfriend, Catherine Greig, hid out during 16 years on the run.
In their Santa Monica apartment, investigators found a weekly planner filled with notes on everyday tasks, including laundry, cleaning, picking up prescriptions and going to doctor’s appointments. But they also found holes in the walls filled with handguns, rifles and cash. Bulger, the former leader of the Winter Hill Gang who was also an FBI informant, fled Boston shortly before he was indicted in early 1995. He was one of the FBI’s most wanted fugitives until he and longtime girlfriend Catherine Greig were caught last June. He is currently awaiting trial for his alleged

role in 19 murders. Descriptions and photos of the apartment, as well as interviews with people who knew the couple, were among hundreds of documents unsealed by prosecutors Friday, three days after Grieg was sentenced to eight years in prison for helping Bulger during his years as a fugitive. The documents offer a glimpse into the couple’s life as fugitives. One photo shows a shelf with a stack of books about gangsters and crime, including several about Bulger himself. Some of the titles include “G-Men and Gangsters;” ‘’The Untold Story of My Life Inside Whitey Bulger’s Irish Mob,” co-written by Kevin Weeks, Bulger’s former right-hand man; and “A Mob Story” by former Boston Herald reporter Michele McPhee. But in other parts of the apartment, there are signs of a simple, unexciting existence. The weekly planner contained notes about going to pharmacies — Rite Aid and CVS — and grocery stores, Trader Joe’s and Vons. Interviews with people who knew them in California — where authorities say they spent most of the 16 years — describe a quiet, older couple who mostly kept to themselves and pretended to be from Chicago. Joshua Bond, the general manager of the apartment building where they lived, said they were known in the neighborhood as “the old couple that always wore white.” Bulger, he said, always wore glasses and a hat, and always had a beard. They called themselves Carol and Charlie Gasko, he said. Bond, who lived next door, said he would sometimes see Bulger through his window sitting up all night with binoculars. “Bond only ever saw Charlie get mad one time. This was because Bond had startled him. Charlie yelled at him and told him not to startle him again,” a summary of an FBI interview said. see WHITEY page

Lakes Region Real Estate Market Report / Roy Sanborn
Great month for sales on Winnipesaukee May was a great month for waterfront sales on Winnipesaukee with 12 transactions at an average price of $638,231. None of the sales exceeded $1-million but three were in the $900,000 range. Last May there were only four sales on the big lake but the average sales price did come in higher at $1.053-million. To me, it is just as good to see a lot of properties selling on the lake in the lower price ranges. The year to date total looks fantastic with a 56-percent increase in sales over the five month period compared to last year. We have had 45 sales so far for a total of $41.2-million at an average price of $915,953. Last year through May we had 29 sales for a total of $26.7million at an average sales price of $920.483! Pretty great start to the year, I’d say! Not surprisingly, the least expensive sale on the lake was an island property at 14 Pine Island in Meredith. This charming three bedroom, two bath, 926-square-foot cottage has been all redone with new paint, tongue-and-groove pine board interior, and new windows and doors. The great room features cathedral ceilings, stone fireplace, and lots of glass. There is an eat-in kitchen, loft, and master bedroom with a half bath. Outside is a large deck to lounge on and enjoy the westerly views. The house sits on a 2-acre lot with 215-feet of frontage in a no wake zone. It has crystal clear water, a sandy beach, and a 30-foot dock for the new owners to tie up to. This home was listed at $339,000 and was only on the market for 12 days before selling for $322,500. The current assessed value is $335,700. Great deal. The move-in ready home at 22 Notla Lane in Alton sold closest to the average price last month at $610,000, but it did take a while and a few price reductions. This home was on the market for 812 days starting at $849,000 before finally corralling a buyer just above that $600,000 mark. This fully updated, open concept home was in move-in-ready condition so the buyer could enjoy the summer season. It has four bedrooms, three baths, and 2,926-square-feet of space. It has a huge kitchen with wood cook top stove, living room with a large stone fireplace, and lots of glass looking out at the 100-feet of water frontage. Outside there is a Notice of Public Hearing Belmont Board of Selectmen Monday, June 25, 2012, 5:00 p.m. Corner Meeting House The Belmont Board of Selectmen will hold a public hearing on Monday, June 25, 2012 beginning at 5:00 p.m. to take comment on a proposal from the Public Works Department to post Jamestown Road as “No Thru Trucking”. Following comment by the public, if any, the Board will take action on the proposal. If passed, the change would be effective immediately and posted accordingly. Date of Notice: June 13, 2012
two car attached garage, new landscaping, and two docks and an open sided boat house. This property is currently assessed at $612,500 so I’d say the buyer got a fair deal. The largest sale of the month was at 13 Nelson’s Pine Point also in Alton. This vintage 1920’s lake house has 2,294-square-foot home has four bedrooms, two baths, and eat in kitchen, a living room with a wood fireplace, and screened porch. The real draw though was the .31-acre lot with 362-feet of frontage, the two bay boathouse, docks, and fabulous views of Alton Bay and the Ossipee Mountains. Somehow, I suspect that there might be a new home planned for this spot. This home was offered last year for three months at $1.275-million and re-listed this season at the same price finding a buyer for $975,000 after only eight days on the market (Eight Days A Week?). The current assessment is $956,500. There was only one sale on Winnisquam in May and that was a cute, 1940’s vintage, 848-squarefoot, three bedroom, one bath seasonal cottage at 8 Leighton Avenue in Laconia. It needs some upgrades to bring it up to today’s standards but it does have potential. The cottage sits on a half acre lot with 133-feet of frontage with westerly exposure, a sandy beach, and a dock. It was advertised as being sold furnished and with a row boat which what I am sure made the deal happen! This property was on the market for 424 days starting at $475,000, was reduced down to $375,000, and then sold for $330,000. The current tax assessment for the property is $512,900. This brings the total number of sales on Winnisquam for the year to a total of five compared to nine for the first five months of 2011. Once again there were no sales on Squam for the month but both summer and buyers are coming... I hope! You can also receive these reports by email.

Get Fuzzy
By Holiday Mathis sign mate Theodore Roosevelt, beloved 26th president of the United States, summed up your best move for the day when he said, “Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.” SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Don’t be so modest. In light of the fact that you get what you give, it would be appropriate to feel at least a little bit deserving of the generous acts of kindness that befall you today. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your guiding planet, Saturn, is the father planet of our system, renowned for his stern lessons in responsibility and righteousness. Considering the fatherly role in your life will be empowering today. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ll be out of your current bind in a flash. When you look back on today, you’ll see it as a mere blip. But that doesn’t speed time along for you any faster right now. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Someone adds regularly to the heaviness of your load. And though you’re mighty tired of it, you also recognize that this is the arrangement you made. Keeping your word will be key to your liberation. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 16). You’ll give more and get more this year. Over the next seven weeks, you will grow through your social connections. Money will be made as a result of accepting an offer or challenge in August. You’ll fall for someone’s humor and charm in September. Singles may find the love of their lives in November. Aquarius and Scorpio people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 25, 49, 19 and 50.
TUNDRA
ARIES (March 21-April 19). People can be unreasonable, self-centered and just plain annoying, but you love them anyway, or at least pleasantly tolerate them for as long as you have to. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The innocent have a clear conscience, so it’s easier for them to remain calm when accused -- and possibly, for whatever reason, to apologize. The guilty one is the one who protests with great emotion. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Everyone learns differently. You tend to pick up a bit here, there and everywhere. You may mistakenly think it doesn’t amount to much. But the whole picture comes together today, and you notice your remarkable growth. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ve been working to fortify your relationship with all that’s good. You realize just how fortunate you are. Every time you run into obstacles, you have someone nearby to help you overcome them. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). What about afternoon tea? It’s a ritual enjoyed by many that connects them with friends and a time-honored tradition. Whether or not it’s your tradition is irrelevant. You could use a few more rituals, don’t you think? VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). What problem can you solve today with that highly analytical brain of yours? Your intellectual powers are augmented by the moon, and you’ll think your way into a sweet situation. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Finding something to like about an unlikable situation will be your task of the day. It takes great creativity and focus. If you can master this, you can do anything. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Saturday, June 16, 2012— Page 19
––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Saturday, June 16, the 168th day of 2012. There are 198 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On June 16, 1812, the City Bank of New York (later Citibank) opened for business. On this date: In 1567, Mary, Queen of Scots, was imprisoned in Lochleven Castle in Scotland. (She escaped almost a year later but ended up impris oned again.) In 1858, accepting the Illinois Republican Party’s nomination for the U.S. Senate, Abraham Lincoln said the slavery issue had to be resolved, declaring, “A house divided against itself cannot stand.” In 1903, Ford Motor Co. was incorporated. In 1911, IBM had its beginnings as the Computing-Tabulating-Recording Co. was incorporated in New York State. In 1932, President Herbert Hoover and Vice President Charles Curtis were renominated at the Republican national convention in Chicago. In 1933, the National Industrial Recovery Act became law. (It was later struck down by the Supreme Court.) In 1941, National Airport (now Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport) opened for business with a ceremony attended by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. In 1952, “Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl” was published in the United States for the first time by Doubleday & Co. In 1962, The New Yorker published the first of a three-part serialization of “Silent Spring” by Rachel Carson. In 1963, the world’s first female space traveler, Valentina Tereshkova, was launched into orbit by the Soviet Union aboard Vostok 6. In 1978, President Jimmy Carter and Panamanian leader Omar Torrijos (toh-REE’-ohs) exchanged the instruments of ratification for the Panama Canal treaties. In 1987, a jury in New York acquitted Bernhard Goetz of attempted murder in the subway shooting of four youths he said were going to rob him; however, Goetz was convicted of illegal weapons possession. (In 1996, a civil jury ordered Goetz to pay $43 million to one of the persons he’d shot.) One year ago: U.S. Rep. Anthony Weiner, D-N.Y., announced his resignation from Congress, bowing to the furor caused by his sexually charged online dalliances with a former porn actress and other women. Osama bin Laden’s longtime second-in-command, Ayman al-Zawahri (AY’-muhn ahl-ZWAH’-ree), took control of alQaida. Today’s Birthdays: Actor Bill Cobbs is 77. Author Joyce Carol Oates is 74. Country singer Billy “Crash” Craddock is 73. Songwriter Lamont Dozier is 71. Rhythm-and-blues singer Eddie Levert is 70. Actress Joan Van Ark is 69. Actor Geoff Pierson is 63. Rhythm-and-blues singer James Smith (The Stylistics) is 62. Boxing Hall of Famer Roberto Duran is 61. Pop singer Gino Vannelli is 60. Actress Laurie Metcalf is 57. Modelactress Jenny Shimizu is 45. Actor James Patrick Stuart is 44. Actor Clifton Collins Jr. is 42. Actor John Cho is 40. Actor Eddie Cibrian is 39. Actress China (chee-nah) Shavers is 35. Actress Missy Peregrym is 30. Actress Olivia Hack is 29. Poprock musician Ian Keaggy (Hot Chelle) is 25.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Annie: I have enjoyed a wonderful friendship with “Sharon” for the past eight years. However, lately she talks nonstop and interrupts me so often during conversations that the only way to enjoy our interaction is through email or by exchanging voicemails. Sharon has always been a high-detail storyteller, going off on frequent tangents and being very involved in the narration. But in the past few months, her inability to stop talking is problematic. I can’t get her attention unless I actually yell, “Hey, Sharon! Stop!” And on the rare occasion when she asks about my personal life, she will interrupt me with another question before I’ve started answering the first one. In fact, she sometimes answers the questions for me. She’ll ask how my day was and then proceed to tell me. It’s bizarre. Just recounting these conversations makes my chest tighten with frustration. I have tried talking over her, but she can outdo me in that arena. I have also become very still the minute she interrupts me, and frankly, she seems completely oblivious. I would say something to Sharon about this, but she is very sensitive, and I’d end up hurting her feelings deeply. Also, I have other friends I can lean on if I have a serious issue, so I don’t really need Sharon for this purpose. But her behavior is so annoying that I see no solution other than limiting our friendship, which is unfortunate because she is otherwise a bright, funny, enjoyable person to be with. Sharon recently asked me out for coffee, and I am avoiding sending a response. Any words of wisdom? -- Speechless in Omaha Dear Omaha: You seem to have a good grasp of the problem: You don’t think telling Sharon about your unhappiness will garner positive results, but you still wish to maintain the
friendship. Remaining silent while she prattles on won’t frustrate you so much if you recognize upfront that this is going to be the dynamic. Master the art of the benign smile. You are not there to converse. You are there to listen to Sharon’s amusing stories, which you apparently enjoy. Dear Annie: I am a 24-year-old college graduate and have found a job that I love. I am not yet confident enough in my finances to rent an apartment, so I’m living with my parents while saving money and building credit. The problem is, my father is stressing me out. He constantly yells at me, eavesdrops on personal conversations with my mother and expresses his dissatisfaction with my life. He thinks I should be making more money, but I love my job and am certain my hours will improve when the economy rebounds. I don’t want to ruin my savings by moving out and paying all that rent, but Dad’s constant criticism is depressing. What should I do? -- New Adult Dear Adult: It’s time to move out. Your independence and peace of mind are worth a little rent, maybe with multiple roommates. You also can talk calmly with your father and explain how his constant negativity affects you. We think one reason he eavesdrops on your conversations with Mom is because he feels left out. His criticism is the only way he knows how to stay involved in your life. Dear Annie: I have a response to “Hurt by Gossip,” whose in-laws can’t keep a secret and repeat everything she tells them to everybody. The next time “Hurt” is tempted to share something with the in-laws, she should ask herself, “Is this something I would be comfortable posting on Facebook?” If the answer is no, she shouldn’t tell the in-laws, either. -- Mrs. Beans

Easy in & easy out to heart of Bike Week: take the train BY GAIL OBER
THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — The Lakeport Square church bell had just tolled the 11th hour when Winnipesaukee Scenic Railroad Conductor Steve Cluett hollered “All Aboard.” For those who want to take in Bike Week but don’t want to sit in traffic, baking in the hot sun for hours to join the festivities, parking in a nearby lot and climbing the three steps up from the platform on to the train provides a comfortable seat and a spectacular view of Paugus Bay and high-end South Down Shores gated community on the way to the party. Cluett, who described his role as summer conductor as a part-time job, makes a few background and educational observations during the trip, including his little-known nugget of information that right in the center of Paugus Bay is where the HMS Titanic really sank. “No one ever believes me when I say that,” he said over the microphone while the passengers laugh. The train rocks gently as it winds its way around the curved shore line of Paugus Bay. Cool breezes from Paugus Bay and shade from the tree-lined route keep passengers confortable. For one-half hour that seems like minutes, the Weirs Shuttle arrives at the Weirs Beach depot and passengers debark to find themselves in the midst of the mayhem that is Laconia Bike Week. From that point, passengers are free to roam. Tickets are round trip and the train returns to Lakeport on the half-hour beginning at 11:30 a.m. and ending at 11:30 p.m. Even more popular, said Hobo Railroad employee Yvette Bujeaud, is the Meredith to Weirs Beach leg that began Thursday and runs all summer. For volunteer Winnipesaukee Railroad Conductor and actual Amtrac Engineer Dan O’Brien, whether he’s working his daily Amtrak route from Boston to New York City for a living or handing out water as a volunteer on the Winnipesaukee, riding the rails is the place he wants to be. “I’m like the mailman that goes for walks on his day off,” he said. O’Brien has been working for railroads for 40

years beginning his career with the Boston and Maine. “Trains are in my blood,” he said, noting he still has the American Flyer train set bought for him when he was 2-years-old. He said he’s been volunteering during Bike Week for years and the Winnipesaukee trip is “one of the most beautiful train trips he’s been on.” “I never get sick of it,” he said looking over Paugus Bay and pointing out a dog swimming after a ball near the shore. see next page

The photos show holes cut into the apartment walls, where authorities say Bulger hid more than 30 weapons and more than $800,000 in cash. One

Another shows stacks of cash. Other photos show the couple’s separate bedrooms. Bulger’s room is cluttered, with an unmade bed, socks strewn on the dresser and crowded shelves. On one of the shelves is a Valentines’ Day card with a picture of a puppy in front of a big red heart. Five pairs of sneakers line the top of a shelf, including four identical white pairs with blue stripes.
