Tougher septic system regs fail selectmen’s smell test By michAel Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
MEREDITH — The selectmen turned up their noses at a proposal to tighten the regulation of septic systems in the Lake Waukewan watershed at a workshop session yesterday. Colette Worsman, the chairman of the board who has not
disguised her disdain for government regulation, described the proposal as “a segue,” suggesting it could ultimately lead to restrictions or prohibitions on swimming and boating while placing “unfunded mandates” on residents. Although less extravagant, Peter Brothers said “these are
pretty strict requirements” and cautioned against “government telling people what public policy ought to be.” He anticipated that the proposal would lead to two “very divided camps,” as landowners opposed the closer regulation favored by environmental and conservation organizations.
Only Nate Torr, who represents the board on the Waukewan Watershed Advisory Committee, spoke strongly in support of tighter regulation, saying that the proposal represented “lots of time and lots of thought” over five years. Miller Lovett said the regusee MeRedItH page 8

Laconia Little League home run record broken after 41 years
Gary Harbour (left) has had to relinquish the Laconia Little League “Home Run King” title he held for more than four decades. On Saturday he was on hand at Colby Field to congratulate the new record holder, Riley Stone. Interestingly, Stafford Oil was the sponsor for the teams that both sluggers played on. Harbour hit 13 home runs back in 1970 and this year Riley blasted 14, five of which were grand slams. Riley was also the 2011 recipient of the coveted Mr. Little League trophy.

FBI fine tuning effort to find Whitey Bulger’s girlfriend
BOSTON (AP) — FBI agents on the trail of James “Whitey” Bulger are turning to TV ads aimed at women and hoping to exploit his longtime girlfriend’s vanity as they try to bring the fugitive Boston mob boss to justice after 16 years on the run. The FBI on Monday announced a new publicity campaign and accompanying public service ad that asks people, particularly women, to be on the lookout for Catherine Greig. She and Bulger have been on the run since 1995 and are thought to still be traveling together. Bulger is wanted in connection to 19 murders while Greig is accused of harboring a fugitive. The 30-second ad is scheduled to start running Tuesday in 14 television markets to which Bulger may have ties and will air during programs popular with women roughly Greig’s age. “We are trying to reach a different audience that will produce new leads in the case,” said agent Richard Teahan, who has been tracking Bulger since see BULGER page 4

U.S. troops coming home? Obama to say on Wed. WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama will announce the critical next steps in America’s decade-long war in Afghanistan on Wednesday, outlining both a plan to start bringing thousands of U.S. troops home next month and a broader withdrawal blueprint aimed at giving Afghans control of their own security in 2014. But even as Obama finalizes those plans, there are divisions in his administration, with military leaders favoring only a gradual reduction in troops but other advisers advocating a significant decrease in the coming months. Administration officials say Obama is
still working through the details on how many troops will start leaving Afghanistan in July, his self-imposed deadline for beginning the drawdown. He is considering a range of options presented to him last week by Gen. David Petraeus, the top U.S. and NATO commander in Afghanistan. “He’s finalizing his decision. He’s reviewing his options,” White House spokesman Jay Carney said Monday. Obama is expected to make Wednesday’s announcement in Washington. On Thursday, he will visit troops at Fort Drum, the upstate New York military base that is home to the 10th Mountain Division, one
of the most frequently deployed divisions to Afghanistan and Iraq. While much of the attention is focused on how many troops will leave Afghanistan next month, the more telling aspects of Obama’s decision center on what happens after July, particularly how long the president plans to keep the 30,000 surge forces he sent in 2009 in the country. There is a growing belief that the president must at least map out the initial withdrawal of the surge troops when he addresses the public. But whether those forces should come out over the next eight see TROOPS page 8
Supreme Court blocks class action sex-discrimination suit against Walmart
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court blocked the largest sex-discrimination lawsuit in U.S. history on Monday, siding with Wal-Mart and against up to 1.6 million female workers in a decision that makes it harder to mount large-scale bias claims against the nation’s other huge companies, too. The justices all agreed that the lawsuit against Wal-Mart Stores Inc. could not proceed as a class action in its current form,
reversing a decision by the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco. By a 5-4 vote along ideological lines, the court also said there were too many women in too many jobs at Wal-Mart to wrap into one lawsuit. “Because respondents provide no convincing proof of a companywide discriminatory pay and promotion policy, we have concluded that they have not established the existence of any common question,” Justice Antonin
Scalia said in his majority opinion. Theodore Boutrous Jr., Wal-Mart’s lawyer, said the decision also would affect pending class-action claims against Costco and others. Companies as varied as the big Wall Street firm Goldman-Sachs & Co., electronics giant Toshiba America Inc., and Cigna Healthcare Inc. also face class-action claims from women they employ. “This is an extremely important victory see WALMART page 14 More than 40% of back and neck injuries are a result of a motor vehicle accident.

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
MANCHESTER (AP) — New Hampshire Bishop John McCormack is urging legislators to override the governor’s veto of a bill that would require pregnant girls seeking abortions to tell their parents or a judge first. Gov. John Lynch vetoed the bill last week. He said it was unclear and too narrow. For example, he said he was troubled by the lack of an exception for victims of rape, incest and abuse. McCormack said on Monday that New Hampshire requires parental consent on many other matters, including tanning, body piercing, employment, and the possession and use of an asthma inhaler. He asked how it makes sense that a child cannot be given an aspirin by a school nurse without the consent of the parent, but that same child can have an abortion without parental notification.

MEREDITH — The Board of Selectmen yesterday decided to appeal to Superior Court the decision of the Zoning Board of Adjustment reaffirming its earlier decision to grant a variance permitting industrial uses on property zoned residential within the Lake Waukewan Watershed Overlay District. The selectmen reached their decision after representatives of the Wakewan Watershed Advisory Committee and Waukewan Shore Owners Association urged them to appeal, and after consulting with town counsel Laura Spector in a non-public session. The property at 22 Foundry Avenue, owned by Foundry Avenue Realty Trust, consists of two lots. The first, a one-acre parcel fronting on Foundry Avenue in the business and industry district, houses Lakeside Plumbing & Heating and is flanked on the west by Stewart’s Ambulance Service and on the east by Comstock Industries. The second, abutting the first to the north, is a four-acre wooded lot, crossed by a wetland on the east, which lies entirely in the residential district. The second lot was annexed to the first by a boundary line adjustment approved by the Planning Board in October 2009. The only access to the residential portion of the property is through the business and industry district. The owner sought the variance to construct a building on the land in the residential district that would serve as a warehouse or house light manufacturing,
on March 10. The majority of the ZBA found that because of its proximity to commercial enterprises and lack of appropriate access, the land is not suited to residential development, despite its zoning. At the urging of shore front property owners on Lake Waukewan, the selectmen, by unanimous vote, later asked the ZBA to rehear the matter and reconsider its decision. At a hearing in May, town counsel Laura Spector, representing the selectmen, argued that the owner failed to satisfy the five criteria required for a variance. In particular, she claimed that because the variance represented “zoning creep,” by which uses permitted in one district are extended to another by annexing abutting property, was contrary to the public interest and the zoning ordinance. Three residents — Paula Wanzer, Duncan McNeish and Chuck Braxton — stressed that the ZBA overlooked the threat to the water quality of nearby Lake Waukewan, the source of the town’s drinking water, posed by permitting industrial uses within the watershed overlay district. When the ZBA deliberated earlier this month five members agreed there was no evidence to conclude that the proposed industrial uses posed a greater risk to the watershed than a residential use. With one dissenter, the board reaffirmed its original decision, primarily because the sole access to the residential see ZONING page 8
CONCORD (AP) — The sponsor of new school aid reform legislation says his proposal will help end the uncertainty over annual state aid amounts that has plagued New Hampshire’s school funding system for years. Republican State Sen. Jim Rausch, of Derry, said he sponsored the bill in hopes of ending fighting among communities over who wins and who loses under the state’s existing formula. “It didn’t take me too long to realize that we had perpetuated inequities for so long in past formulas that the only way to stop the winners and losers was to bring us to a point in time to stabilize the funding,” he said. New Hampshire communities would see little change in their school aid amounts over the next two years if lawmakers adopt his bill Wednesday.

TV from page one Access television on MetroCast Cablevision systems. Her studios are located in the Huot Technical Education Center portion of Laconia High School. “We’re having general discussions with MetroCast and we’re looking at video on demand, which would allow people to watch these programs whenever they want. They would put the same DVD that’s used in my system on their server and people could access it at any time’’ said Beauchaine. Public access television was introduced into the Lakes Region in the 1990s as a result of a cable franchise agreement negotiated between a consortium of local communities, including Laconia, Gilford, Franklin, Meredith, Tilton, Northfield, Belmont and Alton with MetroCast, which provides several channels for public access television (24-26).
Beauchaine said that negotiations are currently underway between the consortium and MetroCast on a long-term renewal of the franchise. She spoke at a public hearing called by selectmen on the prospect of the town’s contract renewal with cable franchise holder MetroCast and was told by Jon Pike, chairman of the board of selectmen, that people like the local government access but complain that they can’t hear the proceedings very well, especially voices from the audience. Beauchaine said that is a common complaint and that it could be that people will have to use the microphones which are provided in order to be heard or a file conversion issue when the videotapes are downloaded to a DVD. She said that the LRPA board’s chairman is an audio engineer and will be available every other
Friday to test out the systems used in each community and make recommendations for improvements, which may include the use of amplifiers in order to allow cameras recording at the back of a room to pick up comments from all parts of the room. Beauchaine said the programs are popular all across the Lakes Region and noted that Bob and Mary Bee Longabaugh, who videotape public access programs in Alton, were recognized while shopping in Gilford by a person who said, “I know you! You’re the troublemakers from Alton. We love what you do and want you to keep doing it!’’ Selectman David Morse said that public access programs provide good information to members of the public who can’t attend meetings and help show the different approaches used in towns all over the area to dealing with public issues. Linda Frawley thanked MetroCast for having its headquarters in Belmont and for providing an important community service through LRPA and it’s feature presentations on the town of Belmont. BULGER from page 2 2006. “Greig has certain habits, characteristics, and idiosyncrasies that are recognizable, and we think the public might naturally notice these things.” The new campaign points out that Greig had several plastic surgeries before going on the lam and was known to frequent beauty salons. It notes that Greig, a former dental hygienist who is 5-foot-6, blueeyed and blond, had impeccable oral hygiene and perfect teeth as a result of monthly visits to the dentist. It also notes that she, like Bulger, is an animal lover and mentions that she has used the aliases Helen Marshal and Carol Shapeton. The public service announcement also stresses the age difference between the two. Bulger is now 81. Grieg is 60. The FBI already had taken out ads in publications aimed at dentists and plastic surgeons. “The next logical step was to profile her on a national scope,” Teahan said. The FBI is hoping that a patron or employee of a dental office, hospital, manicurist, beauty salon or other business remembers seeing Greig. The FBI also doubled the reward leading to Greig’s capture to $100,000. The reward for the capture of Bulger, who is on the FBI’s most wanted list, is $2 million. Bulger was the leader of the Winter Hill Gang

AID from page 3 The bill would change the school aid formula enacted by Democrats in 2008 that has yet to be fully implemented. If Rausch’s bill fails and the existing formula is implemented, the state will have to distribute another $140 million in aid over the next two years. Some communities will get millions of dollars more than under Rausch’s formula, while others would lose money. Rausch said his goal was to prevent the wide swings in aid that make it difficult for communities to plan. To prevent that next year, communities will get a stabilization grant that ensures they get the same aid they got this year. They will continue to get the stabilization grant, but beginning in 2013 their total aid will depend on the number of pupils. “That’s what this does,” he said. “It funds children. If you have more children, you receive more money. If less children, you receive less money.” The bill does not change the existing formula crafted by Democrats to arrive at a base of $3,450 in aid per pupil. But it substitutes a $1,725 per pupil grant for each poor child receiving a subsidized meal rather than provide a grant in varying amounts to schools depending on the number of poor children in each school. Under existing law, schools got the extra from preceding page when he fled in January 1995 after being tipped by a former Boston FBI agent that he was about to be indicted. Bulger was a top FBI informant. The FBI has pursued Bulger around the world. The history buff and avid reader is believed to have traveled in France, Ireland, the United Kingdom, Spain and Canada while on the run. The last credible sighting of the couple was in London in 2002. The current campaign focusing on Greig will be extended internationally, Teahan said. Despite his age, the FBI said Bulger is still considered dangerous because of his violent temper and is known to carry a knife. “It is important for the FBI to bring Bulger to justice, and Catherine Greig can lead us to him,” Teahan said. The ads will be shown in Albuquerque, N.M.; Biloxi, Miss.; Boston; Chicago; Fort Myers, Fla.; Miami; Milwaukee; Mobile, Ala.; New Orleans; Phoenix; San Diego; San Francisco; Tampa, Fla.; and Tucson, Ariz.

aid for every child, including children not receiving subsidized meals. The bill limits the aid to the poor children. The bill also includes a new grant of $675 for each third grade pupil not testing at the reading proficient level or above on state assessment tests. Republican state Sen. Nancy Stiles, a co-sponsor from Hampton, was adamant about adding money to help children learn to read. Children who can’t read lose ground going forward in school, she said. The bill eliminates a grant in the existing law intended to help property-poor towns. “I believe at this point, there aren’t any winners and losers.” said Rausch. “We’re treating everyone equally.” Dean Michener of the New Hampshire School Boards Association questioned whether the base aid amount is truly reflective of what it costs to provide a constitutionally adequate education. The base amount hasn’t changed since it was set in 2008, he said. “We’re just not recognizing what the true cost of

providing educational services are,” he said. The statewide average per pupil cost is $12,000, he said. Mark Joyce, executive director of the New Hampshire School Administrators Association, said the property tax is still supporting more than 70 percent of education costs. Of the $941 million in state aid, only $578 million is from non-property tax sources, he noted. The state Supreme Court issued a landmark ruling in 1997 requiring the state to provide all public school children with an adequate education. After the 1997 court ruling, the state began providing a base per-pupil amount to all communities, funded through various state taxes and a new state property tax. New Hampshire lawmakers have tried and failed dozens of times over the years to nullify the ruling. The Senate postponed action on a constitutional amendment until next year that would shift control over school funding from the courts to lawmakers.

A generation flunking American History “Is our children learning?” as George W. Bush so famously asked. Well, no, they is not learning, especially the history of their country, the school subject at which America’s young perform at their worst. On history tests given to 31,000 pupils by the National Assessment of Education Progress, the “Nation’s Report Card,” most fourth-graders could not identify a picture of Abraham Lincoln or a reason why he was important. Most eighth-graders could not identify an advantage American forces had in the Revolutionary War. Twelfth-graders did not know why America entered World War II or that China was North Korea’s ally in the Korean War. Only 20-percent of fourth-graders attained even a “proficient” score in the test. By eighth grade, only 17-percent were judged proficient. By 12th grade, 12-percent. Only a tiny fraction was graded “advanced,” indicating a superior knowledge of American history. Given an excerpt from the Supreme Court’s 1954 decision Brown v. Board of Education — “We conclude that in the field of pubic education, separate but equal has no place, separate education facilities are inherently unequal” — and asked what social problem the court was seeking to correct, 2-percent of high school seniors answered “segregation.” As these were multiple-choice questions, notes Diane Ravitch, the education historian, the answer “was right in front of them.” A poster put out by the Committee to Defend America by Aiding the Allies, circa 1940, was shown and the question asked, “The poster above seeks to protect America and aid Britain in the struggle against ...” Four countries were listed as possible answers. A majority did not identify Germany, though the poster contained a clue. The boot about to trample the Statue of Liberty had a huge swastika on the sole. “We’re raising young people who are, by and large, historically illiterate,” historian David McCullough told The Wall Street Journal. “History textbooks,” added McCullough, “are “badly written.” Many texts have been made “so politically correct as to be comic. Very minor characters that are currently fashionable are given considerable space, whereas people of major consequence” — such as inventor Thomas Edison — “are given very little space or none at all.” Trendies and minorities have their sensibilities massaged in the new history, which is, says McCullough, “often taught in categories — women’s history, African American history, environmental history — so that many students have no sense of chronology ... no idea of what followed what.” But if the generations coming out of our schools do not know our past,
do not who we are or what we have done as a people, how will they come to love America, refute her enemies or lead her confidently? This appalling ignorance among American young must be laid at the feet of an education industry that has consumed trillions of tax dollars in recent decades. Comes the retort: History was neglected because Bush, with No Child Left Behind, overemphasized reading and math. Yet the same day the NAEP history scores were reported, The New York Times reported on the academic performance of New York state high school students in math and English. The results were stunning. Of state students who entered ninth grade in 2006, only 37-percent were ready for college by June 2010. In New York City, the figure was 21-percent, one in five, ready for college. In Yonkers, 14.5-percent of the students who entered high school in 2006 were ready for college in June 2010. In Rochester County, the figure was 6-percent. And the racial gap, 45 years after the federal and state governments undertook heroic exertions to close it, is wide open across the Empire State. While 51-percent of white freshman in 2006 and 56-percent of Asian students were ready for college in June 2010, only 13-percent of New York state’s black students and 15-percent of Hispanics were deemed ready. The implications of these tests are alarming, not only for New York but for the country we shall become in this century. In 1960, there were 18-million black Americans and few Hispanics in a total population of 160-million. By 2050, African Americans and Hispanics combined will, at 200-million, roughly equal white Americans in number. If the racial gap in academic achievement persists for the next 40 years, as it has for the last 40, virtually all of the superior positions in the New Economy and knowledge-based professions will be held by Asians and whites, with blacks and Hispanics largely relegated to the service sector. America will then face both a racial and class crisis. The only way to achieve equality of rewards and results then will be via relentless use of the redistributive power of government — steep tax rates on the successful, and annual wealth transfers to the less successful. It will be affirmative action, race preferences, ethnic quotas and contract set-asides, ad infinitum — not a prescription for racial peace or social tranquility.

LETTERS We have six administrators filling superintendent’s job description To the editor, Gilford School Board members Derek Tomlinson and Rae MellowAndrews stated that a special Gilford School District meeting would be a “waste of time”. Translation: we don’t need to be bothered with pesky citizens. Fortunately Chairman Webber felt it best to air the superintendent issue because he’s such a nice guy. At least that’s the way he spins it because the news media forgot to mention that they must hold a district meeting by law! My guess is that the district’s attorney, the one we’re paying but works against us, probably told Webber that he should have the district meeting to avoid litigation. Smart move because litigation is exactly what they would have got. The need for a superintendent may be debatable however a signed petition received by the School Board can’t be legally ignored. The citizens have the right to request a district school meeting any time they need answers. They also have the right to request as many meetings as they want. If the School Board can’t answer the questions and address the concerns of the citizens then we can have as many dis-
trict meetings as it takes to get those answers. Sorry Mr. Tomlinson and Ms Mellow-Andrews, it’s the law! I would encourage you to go on the district’s web site and read the superintendent’s job description as written by the School Board. This is a very well written description and I can’t argue with the need for these duties and responsibilities. What isn’t mentioned is that currently ALL of these services are done by no less than six administrators who we are paying in excess of $100,000 each, along with an excellent (expensive) benefit package. Why? This should be the major focus of attention during the district meeting on Tuesday night. As far as I’m concerned, we can have a superintendent, business administrator or whatever else they want to call it but why do we need so many highly paid “professionals” performing this single job function? Mr. Sullivan’s recent editorial stated that the “dissidents” were loud and disruptive. Please come to the meeting on Tuesday night and see who the loud and disruptive ones are. As I recall, the last time it was a teacher. Terry Stewart Gilford

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Tuesday, June 21, 2011 — Page 7
LETTERS How can the kindly professor reconcile this perplexing paradox? To the editor, I agree with other writers who commended Professor Leo Sandy for his column, “Good children are made, not born”. He spoke eloquently about parents who remove children from situations rather than allowing them to suffer the consequences of their behavior. Also, about unrealistic expectations whereby children must always be happy and never fail. The professor correctly pointed out how this creates children who are narcissistic, selfish and in need of instant gratification who subsequently develop a strong sense of entitlement. He is absolutely right on as he notes that when they “never receive a consequence for their errant behavior”, it equates to “selfesteem run amok”. Professor Sandy astutely notes that kids who end up facing a judge will not be so easily bailed out, thus getting a belated, powerful dose of reality. He also points out how well meaning but misguided parents, end up teaching their children how to play the game, bypassing their consequences. This lack of personal responsibility does indeed have a very negative impact on society. As someone who works with emotionally troubled youth and their birth parents, I agree wholeheartedly with Professor Sandy’s assessment of this dilemma in our society and how it is critical that we address this issue. Leo Sandy is a professor who teaches our children. It is my belief and that of many others, that while the professor is well intentioned, he is an educated, academic, elitist intellectual who believes in progressivism, social justice, central planning, redistribution of wealth, gun control, pacifying evil through peaceful methods and eliminating competition. In other words, a “nanny state” socialist, Marxist system that persuades adults to act irresponsibly, become self-centered, seek instant gratification and expect to be bailed out while avoiding natural consequences. This creates the very same sense of entitlement with adult citizens that the professor describes in referencing poorly, parented children. I have absolutely no idea how the kindly professor is able to reconcile this perplexing paradox if he is, as he professes to be, the very paragon of critical thinkers. How in the world does he teach responsibility, indepen-
dence, rational problem solving and keen decision making with the children and families that he counsels, while having a political belief system that is totally anathema to those very same ideals? I’m never quite sure if the progressive, liberal elites realize how often what they say and what they do, are colored with contradictions and hypocrisy. Sometimes it seems as though they must know how oxymoronic they sound, but they don’t care because they don’t think blue collar conservative types will even notice. It would appear that their ideology is part and parcel of who they are and thus their quixotic belief system makes perfect sense to them and they aren’t about to give it up regardless of the mountains of evidence that show it’s many inherent fallacies. Hence, though a socialistic system has never ever been successful in the history of mankind, they blindly and arrogantly believe it will somehow work this time. How in God’s green earth do liberal progressives continue to pronounce that the United States is no more exceptional than any other country and yet believe socialism can work here? That paradox is a colossal conundrum for those on the right. Why it is not for those on the left is a question that perhaps Professor Sandy will explain to the rest of us some day. Perhaps modern day liberalism is an Axis I, psychological disorder. At least that is the theory in Dr. Lyle Rossiter’s book, “The Liberal Mind: The Psychological Causes of Political Madness. When you include the possibility that our current president could meet the criteria for an Axis II diagnosis of Narcissistic Personality Disorder, then it becomes quite clear why this Republic is in such dire straits. I will never give up this fight to hold on to this one of a kind Republic, endowed with a system of capitalism that has made the world a better place for a diverse population. Perhaps my motivation is born of a little selfishness as well. After all, I don’t want to have to enter into the next life and have to introduce myself to Ben Franklin and explain why, I so easily gave up the Republic he worked so very diligently to give to me and the rest of America’s citizens.

MEREDITH from page one lations represented “something very heavy laid on property owners” while Herb Vadney remarked they were “a bit of broad brush.” John Edgar, director of community development, first presented the proposal last October, following a risk analysis of septic systems within 250 feet of the lake. Altogether 112 septic systems on the Meredith shoreline were graded based on their age, along with the slope of the land and the distance to the water. The systems were grouped into four categories, ranging from very high risk to low risk. Thirty-one systems were deemed “very high risk,” most of them with no approvals on file, indicating that they were installed at least 40 years ago. Another 17 were ranked as “high risk.” The remaining 64 system were identified as “moderate” or “low” risk. Since the same risk analysis has been undertaken in New Hampton and Center Harbor where 86 septic systems have been graded, of which 36 qualify as “very high risk.” The proposed regulations, Edgar explained, are intended to compensate for shortcomings of state regulations. The New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services (DES) requires that whenever new construction, measured by additional bedrooms, would increase the flow, a newly designed system with appropriate capacity must be approved.
LACONIA PUBLIC LIBRARY
However, DES does not require the new system be installed until the old system fails, or “does not properly contain or treat sewage or causes the discharge of sewage on the ground surface or directly into surface waters.” Likewise, although DES requires an assessment of developed waterfront property prior to it changing hands, the assessment does not include an evaluation of the existing septic system. The proposed regulations are intended to replace what Edgar called “the wait-for-failure approach.” As drafted the ordinance would apply to all properties within 250 feet of Lake Waukewan and require the installation of a new septic system whenever the conversion or expansion of building adds to the number of bedrooms as well as for any expansion of the living area of those properties without approvals for their septic systems. These same properties without approved systems would be required to undergo inspection and evaluation every five years to ensure they are functioning properly. Edgar told the board that the ordinance would supplement DES’s regulations and could be administered without additional staff by coordinating its application with the building permit process and public health functions. He added that the regulations were drafted with an eye to their adoption by both New Hampton and Center Harbor, the towns with which Meredith shares Lake Waukewan.

Brothers asked if the current regulations of septic systems were being monitored and enforced. “If we had adequate rules and enforcement,” Edgar replied, “I wouldn’t be here.” Worsman said that property owners are obliged to report the failure of septic systems and, in any event, “neighbors are generally looking at their neighbors.” Edgar explained that a failed septic system can contaminate groundwater without necessarily emitting an odor that could be detected by either the landowner or a neighbor. Brothers wondered aloud if there were some way to “phase in” fresh regulation and expressed concern about applying it to one specific site. Edgar reminded the board that as the municipal water supply, Lake Waukewan, which is ringed with homes and open to multiple uses, is “the most sensitive shoreline environment and area of greatest risk.” He reminded the board that the watershed was designated as a overlay district by the zoning ordinance. “Let’s get it right on Waukewan,” he suggested, “then apply it elsewhere.” “We’ve got a system that working,” insisted Worsman, who with her husband operates Golden Eagle Contracting, Inc., a homebuilding firm. “DES is very heavy-handed, but this really really concerns me.” She said that regulation at Lake Massabesic, the municipal water supply for Manchester, is so strict that people have been punished for dipping a toe in the water. Warning against “even beginning to go down that road,” Worsman said that the regulations would place a heavy financial burden on citizens. ZONING from page 3 portion of the property passes through a commercial and industrial neighborhood. The majority held that the variance was in the public interest since a major purpose of zoning is to separate different uses. In asking the Selectboard to appeal to superior court, Randy Eifert of the Waukewan Watershed Advisory Committee suggested confining the argument to “zoning creep,” reminding the board that in 2009 Town Meeting amended the zoning ordinance to forestall maneuvers like that made by Foundry Avenue Realty Trust. TROOPS from page 2 to 12 months or slowly trickle out over a longer time is hotly debated. Military commanders want to keep as many of those forces in Afghanistan for as long as possible, arguing that too fast a withdrawal could undermine the fragile security gains in the fight against the Taliban insurgency in Afghanistan, the al-Qaida training ground for the Sept. 11 attacks. There are also concerns about pulling out a substantial number of U.S. forces as the heightened summer fighting season gets under way. Retiring Defense Secretary Robert Gates has said he believes the initial drawdown should be “modest”. But other advisers are backing a more significant withdrawal that starts in July and proceeds steadily through the following months. That camp believes the slow, yet steady, security gains in Afghanistan, combined with the death of Osama bin Laden and U.S. success in dismantling much of the al-Qaida network in the country give the president an opportunity to make larger reductions this year. There is also growing political pressure on Capitol Hill for a more significant withdrawal. Twentyseven senators, Democrats as well as Republicans, sent Obama a letter last week pressing for a shift in Afghanistan strategy and major troop cuts. “Given our successes, it is the right moment to initiate a sizable and sustained reduction in forces, with the goal of steadily redeploying all regular combat troops,” the senators wrote. “The costs of prolonging the war far outweigh the benefits.” There is broad public support for starting to withdraw U.S. troops. According to an Associated PressGfK poll last month, 80 percent of Americans say they approve of Obama’s decision to begin withdrawal of combat troops in July and end U.S. combat operations in Afghanistan by 2014. Just 15 percent disapprove. Obama has tripled the number of U.S. forces in Afghanistan since taking office, bringing the total

LETTERS Failure to deal with deficit is serious; Obama hasn’t provided results To the editor, America’s sluggish recovery will give any challenger a chance in the presidential race. The question is whether any challenger has the personality and the ideas to take on the job. Fortunately this race will be competitive because America’s voters are being forced to confront the hard choices their country has to make. The main reason the incumbent is vulnerable is the sluggish economy. The “recovery” is even slower than predicted or projected. The implemented plan has not produced the trumpeted results claimed by its maker. The annualized growth rate in the first quarter was a feeble 1.8-percent. The unemployment rate actually rose, to 9.1-percent, in May. The rate of job creation is barely keeping track with the natural increase in the working-age population. In 2008 the current incumbent represented “change”. This time he will have to defend his record. There will be charges that he is to blame for the lack of strength of the recovery. The incumbent responds that things would have been worse without his actions. Actions such as his $800-billion stimulus package and the takeover of GM and Chrysler have been thrown against the wall. Voters will tell us what stuck. The voters will determine if they are better off for the incumbent’s leadership from behind style. They will determine if his world apology tour in atonement for America’s sins of omission and commission was an action in the best interest of the nation. What happened to his promises to do something about the environment, immigration or Guantánamo? Why should any businessman support a chief executive who has let his friends in the labor movement run amuck? Why should any businessman support a chief executive who let his health-care bill be written by Democrats in Congress? Why has he never produced a credible plan to tackle the budget deficit, currently close to 10-percent of GDP? That said; to defeat the incumbent, the challengers need both a credible candidate and credible policies. In terms of talent, the current line-up is full of hope. There are many capable candidates. Some are announced participant in the race and some are on the sidelines. Talent is less of a problem than policies. A serious challenger must come up with answers to the two big problems facing America’s economy. Those burning issues are: How to get more people back to work, and how to fix the deficit. Putting more people back to work requires structural reforms to boost both jobs and growth. Fixing the deficit requires a credible plan to
balance the books in the medium term that does not wreck the economy in the short term. When it comes to encouraging jobs the failure is lack of inventiveness. The focus is currently limited to tax cuts and slashing red tape. That is a starting point but what about a push to free-up trade? Or what about overhauling the antiquated unemployment insurance scheme? Why not utilize worker-training programs which rest with business not the education lobby? And why isn’t it time for serious immigration reform? The failure on the deficit is serious. Mr. Obama is vulnerable here because he has not produced positive results. Trying to make sense of his policies can aptly be described as trying to anticipate the movements of a chicken with its head cut off. Worse still, he is still trying to kid Americans into believing that their fiscal future can be shored up merely by taxing the rich more. Less reality and more class warfare! That seems to be the battle cry. The solution of tax cuts and even deeper spending cuts is also inadequate. Much of the burden of repairing America’s public finances should fall on spending. That is true however the deficit is simply too large to close through spending cuts alone. The overall tax take is at its lowest, as a share of GDP, in decades. We may not want believe that but it is true. For that reason and because of the size of the debt tax rates must eventually rise. There is no easy way out of the debt box we have placed ourselves in. An honest candidate would acknowledge the issues and lay out the right way to overcome them. A place to start might be with elimination of tax loopholes. This would allow revenues to rise and it would limit the utility of this social engineering tool. The candidate should also come up with a more systematic spending plan. No candidate seems to understand the difference between good spending and bad. Investment in needed infrastructure ought not to be lumped in with entitlements, like Social Security and Medicare. Defense should not be sacrosanct. That the incumbent has no strategy either is not an excuse. In most elections promising toughness is not a successful tactic. This time Americans know that their country has huge problems. This time Americans know that their nation’s finances are the biggest problem of all. The challengers need to make the incumbent seem ridiculous by spelling out the austerity that all know is required which he barely dares to mention. If there ever was a time for pragmatic conservative realism, it is now. Marc Abear Meredith

LETTERS Perhaps if we stopped subsidizing the petroleum industry . . . To the editor, It seems there are a lot of questions about renewable energy sources and how viable they will be as a replacement for fossil fuels. I just finished a book that folks might find interesting and enlightening on this subject, entitled “World on the Edge” by Lester Brown. He goes through all the different renewable energy sources and what they have to offer, should we make the necessary investment in bringing them all on line. Numerous other countries have
taken this challenge very seriously and are well on their way to replacing a significant percentage of their non-renewable energy sources with renewables. Perhaps if we stopped subsidizing the petroleum industry (see http://www.nytimes.com/2010/07/04/ business/04bptax.htmlthis) and shifted those resources to renewables this country could be counted among the world leaders in the renewable energy future.

How can anyone be positive when everything around us is down? To the editor, Why should Congressmen or any other person in government have so many perks while we Americans are loosing everything — a gym that we are paying for and God knows what else? Who do they think they are? That is not fair. When is this country going to start its own uprising against what the so-called government is doing to all good Americans? I am sick of all the perverts running the country. If they can do a good job running the country like they do their sex life, whipee, would that be nice? What they are doing is spending our tax dollars on a lot of pork, sex, and perks for themselves. When is this going to stop? It seems no matter who we elect they all come out smelling like dog poop. I would have liked to use another word to describe these morons that are ruining this country, starting with OBAMA. If he gets in again as president, we are done for. That is why the economy and everything else is falling apart. Hang on to your hats, this is
only going to get worse. Word is that we are in for a double-dip recession this time. People are leaving their houses because the mortgage is more then what the house is worth — it’s a nightmare. We are going to hell in a hand basket thanks to this guy who is president (BIG MISTAKE) — and the rest of them in office as well. This is a scary time for most people. Those jerks are getting better care then any of us hopes to have or ever get. How can anyone be positive when everything is DOWN? Stock market, banks, food is out of sight, fuel is going through the roof, houses are worthless. Someone has got to do this right and say no more crap from anyone. We will not help other countries until we can get our country healed and the respect back from the American people. Is that ever going to happen? All I can say is PRAY. The power of prayer works. God bless the troops and America. Anna DeRose Moultonborough

Independent Business Alliance aims to expand reach across Belknap County By RogeR Amsden AMSDEN NEWS AGENCY
GILFORD — The Belknap Independent Business Alliance (BIBA) is looking to expand its membership throughout Belknap County in the coming months. “We’re heavily concentrated in Laconia. But we’re gaining members in the towns around us, which is important because improving the local economy needs more than just one community,’’ BIBA president Randy Bullerwell told members at the organization’s annual meeting held recently at Pheasant Ridge Country Club. Reinforcing that point was the election of Charles Leonard of Northeast Planning Associates to the board of directors. His business is located in Meredith and he is active with the Greater Meredith Program. “I’d like to see more businesses from Meredith joining us,’’ said Leonard. Bullerwell, owner of All My Life Jewelers in Laconia, cited BIBA’s successes in the three years since it was formed to promote local businesses, including a pledge made by the city of Laconia to switch 10-percent of its purchases to local independently-owned businesses and it’s involvement with charitable

activities, including the WLNH Children’s Auction. David Buffington of AMG Financial of Meredith said that the BIBA card, which provides discounts to cardholders at BIBA member businesses, is an important part of gaining recognition from the public for BIBA’s members. “We’re dealing with 100 businesses and wanted to roll out a program that everyone could use,’’ said Buffington. Friends of BIBA Cards can be purchased for a onetime charge of $10 at All My Life Jewelers, The Insurance Outlet, Sunflower Natural Foods and Mainstay Technologies. Cardholders are urged to visit the organization’s website, bibanh.org, for current specials being offered at 40 member businesses. Ryan Robinson, a BIBA director and Mainstay Technologies’ director of business development, said that the organizations “Meet and Greet’’ events offer a unique opportunity for member businesses to network while gaining exposure for their businesses. He said that “relationship networking’’ at the events is the most successful way for business owners to grow their business because of the impact see next page

A Superior Court judge has ordered Belmont resident Dennis Berwick to tear down the two-story garage building on Rte. 106 that is at the center of this picture because a small portion of it encroaches on the property of his neighbor, The entire building is in the required setback buffer. Henry Dionne. Dionne put up the fence shown at right to prevent Berwick from accessing the driveway he was using to access the garage. A survey determined that all of the driveway was on Dionne’s property. Dionne’s home and business are located out of the picture, to the right. (Laconia Daily Sun photo/Ed Engler)
BELMONT from page one wanted to speak that he would have included him on last night’s agenda and Dionne said he wanted to be heard at the next meeting of selectmen on July 11. Outside of the Corner Meetinghouse after the meeting Dionne said that he wanted to know “what laws we’re going to enforce in town’’ and expressed concern that even though the court has ordered his neighbor’s building torn down there is no mention of a specific deadline in the court order. He declined further comment on the situation. Last week in Belknap County Superior Court Judge James D. O’Neill III ordered the the two-story from preceding page of meeting people face to face outweighs all other forms of contact, The “Meet and Greet’’ at the annual meeting was hosted by Jim Contiagiani of Contiagiani’s Catering, a long-established catering firm which handles all aspects of catering and event planning. BIBA’s next “Meet and Greet” will be BIBA Night on Friday, June 24 at the Laconia Muskrats game.
building removed from Dionne’s property by its owner, Dennis Berwick, who had filed a legal action last year asking the court to uphold the validity of a boundary line adjustment plan that Dionne and Berwick had discussed in 2009. Dionne had refused to sign the agreement, maintaining that the proposed land swap was not equal because the land he was surrendering was usable while the land he which would have become part of his property was swamp land and not usable. Last week’s ruling by Judge O’Neill says that evidence at the trial did not show that a valid contract existed because both men had a different understanding of what it would be, with Dionne believing it would be an equal amount of usable land and Berwick believing that it would simply be an equal amount of land. The case has a long history, dating back to 1998, when Berwick, a plumbing contractor, began construction of the garage-type building by pouring a concrete slab. Dionne testified at the April bench trial before Judge O’Neill that shortly after the slab was poured he approached Berwick and told him that he thought

Alleged shooter ordered held on $100k cash bail LACONIA — The local man charged in a shooting at the Normandin Square apartments on Strafford Street in April is being held in the Belknap County Jail in lieu of $100,000 cash bail following his arraignment in Laconia District Court yesterday. James McNeill, 29, of 380 Mile Hill Road, Unit 4, was arrested by officers of the United States Marchall’s Fugitive Task Force in Sanford, Maine last week on an outstanding warrant charging him with first degree assault and being a felon in possession of a firearm, both felonies. In setting conditions of bail, Judge Jim Carroll forbid McNeill to leave the
state, refrain from alcohol or drugs and report to the Laconia Police Department daily at 3 p.m. Police allege that McNeill, armed with a .40 caliber handgun, shot Tyler Twombly, 26, of Gilford in the stomach after Twombly punched one man and stabbed another. According to police, witnesses said that all four men had either been smoking or intended to smoke crack cocaine when the shooting and stabbing occurred not long after 4 a.m. on April 8. Twombly, who was charged with simple assault, a misdemeanor, and first degree assault, a felony, was released after posting $50,000 cash bail.
LACONIA — A Belmont woman was charged with aggravated driving while intoxicated after colliding with a utility pole on North Main Street shortly before midnight last Friday. Michelle Bourgeois, 30, of 29 North Main Street, was traveling south on North Main Street in a 2008 Subaru Impreza when she struck the pole near
Mitchell Place. Bourgeois told Master Patrol Officer Kathleen Yale that she was texting on a cell phone when the car hit the pole. At the time her 10 year-old son was a passenger in the car. North Main Street was closed to traffic until a crew from Public Service Company of New Hampshire determined it could be safely reopened.

from preceding page he approached Berwick and told him that he thought it was closer to his property line than the 25-foot setback required by ordinance but Berwick maintained that he believed it was properly located. In 2001 Berwick received a building permit and completed the new building, which included a glass door and a garage door facing the Dionne property, and used a gravel driveway to access the property from Rte. 106. Dionne testified that during surveys conducted by the state of New Hampshire in connection with the widening of Rte. 106 he had been advised by state surveyors that the footprint of the workshop was directly adjacent to the Berwick/Dionne property line. In 2008 Dionne hired land surveyor Paul Zarnowski to prepare a site plan for his application to the Belmont Planning Board for use of his property for boat storage and found out that a small part of Berwick’s workshop was actually located on his property. When Dionne was told by town officials that his plan could not be approved because it contained a non-conforming structure, Berwick’s two-story garage, Steve Dalton, the town’s code enforcement
officer, suggested in a letter to Berwick that he work out an agreement which would bring the garage into compliance with the town’s zoning law. But the proposed agreement was never signed by Dionne, who Berwick says then built a fence which blocked the driveway to the garage. Last August, after Dalton sent a letter to Berwick telling him that the garage must either be torn down or some kind of boundary line adjustment worked out, Berwick filed a legal action in Belknap County Superior Court asking that the court order that the land swap take place. Last September the Planning Board agreed to allow Dionne to build a carport in front of his garage so that he could work while it was raining but held off on approving some of the expanded uses that Dionne has proposed for his property until the boundary line issue has been resolved. Dionne’s lawyer, William Philpot, told the board at the September meeting that it was unfair to penalize Dionne because the town had granted Berwick a building permit for a garage which was not entirely on his property.

LACONIA — A Massachusetts man escaped with minor injuries after the car he was driving left the roadway, struck a utility pole and rolled on to its roof on Parade Road around 9:45 a.m. yesterday. Roland Young, 84, of 46 Hidden Bay Drive, South Dartmouth, Massachu-
setts was traveling southbound when the accident occurred. He was taken to Lakes Region General Hospital where he was treated for what police described a minor injuries. Neither speed nor alcohol appear to have contributed to the accident, which remains under investigation.
WALMART from page 2 not just for Wal-Mart, but for all companies that do business in the United States,” Boutrous said. The assessment was similar on the other side of the issue. Marcia D. Greenberger, co-president of the National
Women’s Law Center, said, “The court has told employers that they can rest easy, knowing that the bigger and more powerful they are, the less likely their employees will be able to join together to secure their rights.” see next page

10-run outburst in 7th inning propels Red Sox by San Diego, 14-5 BOSTON (AP) — Adrian Gonzalez drove in three runs with a single and double in a 10-run seventh inning against his former team and the hot-hitting Boston Red Sox rolled to a 14-5 win over the struggling San Diego Padres on Monday night. Gonzalez boosted his major league-leading RBI total to 67 since the Padres, unable to give him a lucrative contract, traded him to the Red Sox in the offseason for three top prospects. He went 3 for 5 to increase his batting average to .353, also the best in the majors. Tied at 3 going into the seventh, Gonzalez drove in the go-ahead run with a one-out double. After Kevin Youkilis flied out, the Red Sox scored nine more runs. Boston entered with baseball’s best batting average at .275 and scored at least 10 runs for the fifth from preceding page With 2.1 million workers in more than 8,000 stores worldwide, Wal-Mart could have faced billions of dollars in damages if it had had to answer claims by the huge group of women. Now, the handful of employees who brought the case may pursue their claims on their own, with much less money at stake and less pressure on WalMart to settle. Two of the named plaintiffs, Christine Kwapnoski and Betty Dukes, vowed to continue their fight, even as they expressed disappointment about the ruling. “We still are determined to go forward to present our case in court. We believe we will prevail there,” said Dukes, a greeter at the Walmart in Pittsburg, Calif. “All I have to say is when I go back to work tomorrow, I’m going to let them know we are still fighting,” said Kwapnoski. an assistant manager at a Sam’s Club in Concord, Calif. Both women spoke on a conference call with reporters. The women’s lawyers said they were considering filing thousands of discrimination claims against Wal-Mart, but they acknowledged the court had dealt a fatal blow to their initial plan. In a statement, Wal-Mart said, “The court today unanimously rejected class certification and, as the majority made clear, the plaintiffs’ claims were worlds away from showing a companywide discriminatory pay and promotion policy.” The high court’s majority agreed with Wal-Mart’s argument that being forced to defend the treatment of female employees regardless of the jobs they hold or where they work is unfair. Scalia said there needed to be common elements tying together “literally millions of employment decisions at once.” He said that in the lawsuit against the nation’s largest private employer, “That is entirely absent here.” Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, writing for the court’s four liberal justices, said there was more than enough to unite the claims. “Wal-Mart’s delegation of discretion over pay and promotions is a policy uniform throughout all stores,” Ginsburg said. The other women on the court, Justices Elena Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor, and Justice Stephen Breyer joined Ginsburg’s opinion. House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi and other congressional Democrats criticized the ruling and called on Congress to pass the Paycheck Fairness Act to reduce wage disparities between men and women. “Today’s ruling underscores the need to act boldly and strongly on behalf of women’s rights,” Pelosi said. Business interests, including nearly two dozen large companies, lined up with Wal-Mart, while civil rights, women’s and consumer groups sided with the women plaintiffs. Both sides painted the case as extremely consequential. The business community said that a ruling for the women would lead to a flood of class-action lawsuits based on vague evidence. Supporters of the women suggested a decision in favor of Wal-Mart could remove a valuable weapon for fighting all sorts of discrimination. Said Greenberger: “The women of Wal-Mart, together with women everywhere, will now face a far steeper road to challenge and correct pay and other forms of discrimination in the workplace.”
time in nine games. San Diego, which began the day with a major league-low .232 average, has lost a season-high six straight games. Matt Albers (2-3) pitched 1 1-3 scoreless innings to get the decision as the AL East-leading Red Sox won for the 14th time in 16 games to remain 1½ ahead of the New York Yankees. Boston scored single runs in the first, third and fourth off Wade LeBlanc. San Diego tied it in the sixth on a three-run homer by Orlando Hudson off Andrew Miller, making his first appearance of the season after being called up on Sunday from TripleA Pawtucket. Cory Luebke (1-2) had struck out six of his nine batters heading into the seventh. He started that inning by walking Jacoby Ellsbury. Dustin Pedroia then hit a bouncer to second baseman Hudson but hustled down the line to narrowly avoid a double
play. Gonzalez followed with his tiebreaking single. After Youkilis was retired for the second out, David Ortiz was walked intentionally and J.D. Drew walked, loading the bases. Ernesto Frieri then hit the next two batters — Marco Scutaro and Jason Varitek — to make it 6-3. Josh Reddick tacked on a two-run double, and Pedroia walked with the bases loaded. Gonzalez drove in two more with a base hit and Youkilis had a two-run double. It was the most runs for the Red Sox in a single inning since they scored 12 in the sixth in a 13-3 win over Cleveland on May 7, 2009. The team record is 17 runs in the seventh against Detroit on June 18, 1953. The previous biggest inning for the Red Sox this season was seven runs in three games, the last on June 11 at Toronto. Boston added another run, on a bases-loaded walk to Ellsbury, in the eighth.

Folk-rock legend John Sebastian to perform at The Flying Monkey Performance Center June 25 PLYMOUTH — John Sebastian, founder of The Lovin’ Spoonful and legendary folk-rock performer, will perform in concert at The Flying Monkey Performance Center at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, June 25. Over four decades, Sebastian has become a permanent part of the American musical fabric. The Lovin’ Spoonful played a major role in the mid-’60s rock revolution with songs like “Do You Believe In Magic?,” “You Didn’t Have To Be So Nice,” “Daydream,” “Younger Girl,” “Did You Ever Have To Make Up Your Mind?,” “Summer In The City,” “Rain On The Roof,” “Nashville Cats,” “Six O’Clock,” “Darling Be Home Soon,” and “Younger Generation.” The Lovin’ Spoonful was not Sebastian’s first act, and it certainly wasn’t his last. Throughout the ‘70s and ‘80s he continued to record and tour, pleasing old fans and winning new ones. The ‘90s also saw Sebastian return to the group format with the J-Band, a contemporary celebration of his jug band heritage. Tickets to John Sebastian’s performance are $29/$33 for Reserved Orchestra, Tables, and Balcony, and $38 for Gold Circle. Tickets can be purchased online at www.flyingmonkeynh.com or by calling the box office at 536-2551. Dinner is available from 6 — 7 p.m. at an additional charge. Advanced reservations for the dining section are required. Doors open at 6 p.m.

Laconia Farmer’s Market to begin 38th year with new and returning vendors on Saturday LACONIA — The Farmer’s Market will begin its 38th year with new and returning vendors in the City Hall parking lot from 8 a.m. — noon on Saturday, June 25.

Epicurean’s inventory consists of all-natural iced teas, all-natural lemonades, all-natural fruit tea smoothies, as well as organic chai tea. Returning vendors will provide shoppers with the chance to purchase maple syrup, organic vegetables, all natural meats, coffee, herbs, hanging plants, dog treats, natural insect repellent spray,
beeswax candles, soaps, soy candles, tarts, and air fresheners. The “lobster people” are also coming back to provide lobster meat by special order. Brian Ramsay retired as market master at the end of last season after holding the position for eight years. His son Dan will continue to attend the market and new vendor Bill Brown from Loudon will fill his spot with conventionally grown vegetables and maple syrup. This year the Laconia Farmer’s Market was chosen by the NH Farmers Market Association to participate in its EBT/Snap pilot program. A booth with a terminal will accept EBT/Snap payments, debit cards, or credit cards as payment for any of the vendors’ items.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Distractions, be gone! Otherwise, a key piece of information could elude you. You have to watch and listen from beginning to end to get the full story. The prize goes to the one who does this the best. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). All it takes is one suggestion that makes perfect sense, and you turn it into a project. You create momentum. You do a beautiful job of escalating the action and achieving progress by the end of the day. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Just as you can ruin a car’s transmission by staying in the same gear for too long, you can wear a relationship in the wrong way by staying in the same mode for too long. Mix it up. Show all of your colors. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You may not mean to do this consciously, but you set someone up to contribute to your cause. You make it known that you’re going to make your move later, and when you do, the other person is ready. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Better to be exciting, direct and even a bit overbearing than to be boring and predictable. So stop worrying that you might offend someone, and say what’s on your mind. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 21). There’s a lovely simplicity to the way you tackle personal and professional goals this year. You always do your best. When the outcome doesn’t please you, you’ll objectively look at what happened and try it a different way. When you are happy with the results, you will celebrate briefly and move on to the next challenge. Capricorn and Virgo people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 43, 9, 26, 31 and 2.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Getting the most of today’s opportunities requires some prep time. Check your notes. Reload your memory before you meet with tough clients, customers, bosses, colleagues or the most critical members of your family. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You walk the line between appropriate and inappropriate. You gravitate toward the outsiders. You dare to be more edgy, real and exciting than anything else going on around you. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Intellect and intelligence are not the same things. You will experience an illustration of this today. Someone who is highly educated displays a lack of common sense, and you will be just the one to help this person out. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Make your move. It shows you’re not afraid. If you wait around, the other person involved will think you’re not that interested, and the excitement of the whole deal diminishes. So be a bit impulsive. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll be informally appointed to a position because of your outgoing personality. You’ll show that you’re the kind of person who can make connections happen without something awkward taking place. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll be around a person who can help you attain one of your goals. You may not consciously intend to tell this person what you want, but you telegraph your needs anyway. Your subconscious messaging system is going strong. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Just because you are positive and upbeat doesn’t mean you aren’t also mischievous and playful. You gently tease your loved ones, and they crave the specific kind of attention that comes from only

––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Tuesday, June 21, the 172nd day of 2011. There are 193 days left in the year. Day. Summer arrives at 1:16 p.m. EDT. Today’s Highlight in History: On June 21, 1788, the United States Constitution went into effect as New Hampshire became the ninth state to ratify it. On this date: In 1834, Cyrus Hall McCormick received a patent for his reaping machine. In 1932, heavyweight Max Schmeling lost a title fight rematch in New York by decision to Jack Sharkey, prompting Schmeling’s manager, Joe Jacobs, to exclaim: “We was robbed!” In 1963, Cardinal Giovanni Battista Montini was chosen to succeed the late Pope John XXIII; the new pope took the name Paul VI. In 1964, civil rights workers Michael H. Schwerner, Andrew Goodman and James E. Chaney were murdered in Philadelphia, Miss.; their bodies were found buried in an earthen dam six weeks later. In 1981, five members of a climbing party fell to their deaths while scaling Mount Hood in Oregon. In 1982, a jury in Washington D.C. found John Hinckley Jr. not guilty by reason of insanity in the shootings of President Ronald Reagan and three other men. In 1989, a sharply divided Supreme Court ruled that burning the American flag as a form of political protest was protected by the First Amendment. In 2005, 41 years to the day after three civil rights workers were beaten and shot to death, Edgar Ray Killen, an 80-year-old former Ku Klux Klansman, was found guilty of manslaughter in a Mississippi court. One year ago: Faisal Shahzad, a Pakistan-born U.S. citizen, pleaded guilty to charges of plotting a failed car bombing in New York’s Times Square. Today’s Birthdays: Actor Bernie Kopell is 78. Actor Monte Markham is 76. Songwriter Don Black is 73. Actress Mariette Hartley is 71. Comedian Joe Flaherty is 70. Rock singer-musician Ray Davies (The Kinks) is 67. Actress Meredith Baxter is 64.

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Tuesday, June 21, 2011— Page 25
ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Annie: I have been in a relationship with “Derek” for two years. I love him dearly and know we will marry someday. The problem is, my sister and her husband will not accept Derek because we started dating when he was still going through a divorce. Annie, I know we should have waited until the divorce was final, but my sister can’t seem to move past it. She refuses to meet Derek and has told me that neither she nor her husband will come to our wedding. My sister has made mistakes in her marriage, and I was always very accepting and forgiving. Leaving Derek is not an option, but I hate that I don’t see my nieces anymore because of this tiff. How can I convince her Derek is a good guy if she won’t make an effort to meet him? -- Miss My Sis Dear Miss: All choices have consequences, and it helps to be prepared to deal with them. Yes, your sister seems unforgiving and harsh, but you cannot fix that. She also may believe that her intransigent position will force you to give Derek up. If you plan to stay with this man, you should conduct your lives with dignity and integrity and hope that your sister will someday accept the two of you as a couple. Dear Annie: I have a friend who has the “call waiting” feature on his phone. If I am talking to him and a second call comes in, he will say, “Oh, I have another call,” and either hang up on me, or leave me waiting interminably while he chats with the second caller. Once he kept me holding so long, I finally hung up. However, if I am the second caller, he will say, “I’m on the other line. Can I call you back?” This seems to indicate that other callers are always more important to him than I am. Unless it is a dire emergency, I feel the first call should take prior-
ity. I also think his treatment of me is disrespectful. My friend also has “Caller ID,” so he knows who the second call is from and doesn’t need to answer it unless he believes it’s urgent. Is there an etiquette rule for this? Am I wrong to feel rudely treated? -- Unimportant Caller Dear Caller: Etiquette says the person with whom you are already on the phone takes precedence over an incoming call. Your friend should put you on hold just long enough to inform the second caller that he will call back. However, if your conversation has already gone on for quite a while, it makes sense for you to say, “Go ahead and get that. I’ll talk to you later.” Courtesy works both ways. Dear Annie: I read the letter from “Scared Sister,” who is worried about her younger sister’s night vision and her ability to drive. The sister, “Louise,” is a full-time operating-room nurse who is required to rotate being on call at night. You recommended she speak to her supervisor along with several other alternatives. Here’s one more: Louise may be able to apply for a reasonable accommodation under the Americans with Disabilities Act. She should speak to her HR department or contact the Americans with Disabilities website to start the process. This is federal law, and if Louise has a legitimate disability, her employer needs to make a reasonable accommodation for her. If they simply took her off the night shift, the employer would not have to bear any financial burden. -- Ron in Connecticut Dear Ron: Several readers suggested that Louise find out if she is eligible for accommodation through the Americans with Disabilities Act. For more information, readers can contact the ADA information line at 1-800-514-0301 or check their website at www.ada.gov. Our thanks to all who wrote.
