ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Casey Anthony is competent to remain on trial for murder in the death of her 2-yearold daughter, a judge ruled Monday after examining reports by three psychologists who examined her over the weekend. Also on the 29th day of testimony, Anthony’s attorneys asked Judge Belvin Perry to declare a mistrial and select a new jury, citing a ruling on Florida’s death penalty. Attorneys told the judge they did not believe their 25-yearold client is competent, based on privileged discussions with her. They did not elaborate what led them to that conclusion in a motion filed Saturday and sealed until the judge’s ruling. Perry asked the psychologists to determine whether Anthony could comprehend the charges against her and the possible penalties, and if she could testify relevantly if called to the stand. If convicted on the first-degree murder charge against see TRIAL page 13

Illinois jury convicts Blagojevich on 17 counts CHICAGO (AP) — Rod Blagojevich, who won two terms as Illinois governor before scandal made him a national punch line, was convicted Monday of a wide range of corruption charges, including trying to sell President Barack Obama’s Senate seat. The verdict, coming after his first trial ended last year with the jury deadlocked on most charges, was a bitter defeat for Blagojevich, who spent 2½ years professing his innocence on reality TV shows and later on the witness stand. His defense team insisted that hours of FBI wiretap recordings were just the ramblings of a politician who liked to think out loud. Blagojevich becomes the second straight
Illinois governor convicted of corruption. His predecessor, George Ryan, is now serving 6½ years in federal prison. When sentenced later this year, Blagojevich is virtually certain to get a significant prison term that experts said could be 10 to 15 years. After hearing the verdict, Blagojevich turned to defense attorney Sheldon Sorosky and asked “What happened?” His wife, Patti, slumped against her brother, then rushed into her husband’s arms. Before the decision was read, the couple looked flushed, and the former governor blew his wife a kiss across the courtroom, then stood expressionless, with his hands
clasped tightly. The verdict capped a long-running spectacle in which Blagojevich became famous for blurting on a recorded phone call that his ability to appoint Obama’s successor to the Senate was “f---ing golden” and that he wouldn’t let it go “for f---ing nothing.” The 54-year-old Democrat, who has been free on bond since shortly after his arrest, spoke only briefly with reporters as he left the courthouse, saying he was disappointed and stunned by the verdict. “Well, among the many lessons I’ve learned from this whole experience is to try to speak a little bit less, so I’m going to see ILLINOIS page 8
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama plunged into deadlocked negotiations to cut government deficits and raise the nation’s debt limit Monday, and the White House expressed confidence a “significant” deal with Republicans could be reached. But both sides only seemed to harden their positions as the day wore on, the administration insisting on higher
taxes as part of the package but Republican leaders flatly rejecting the idea. Obama and Vice President Joe Biden met with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., for about 30 minutes at the White House, and then met with Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky for about an hour in the early evening. White House spokesman Jay Carney said
Obama reported after the morning session that “everyone in the room believes that a significant deal remains possible.” But Carney also affirmed that Obama would only go for a deficit-reduction plan that included both spending cuts and increased tax revenue, an approach that Republicans say would never get through Congress. see OBAMA page 12

Lynch vetoes bill required McCourt takes Dodgers into bankruptcy court voters to show ID at polls CONCORD (AP) — Gov. John Lynch vetoed a bill Monday that requires voters to show photo identification to vote in New Hampshire. “An eligible voter who goes to the polls to vote on Election Day should be able to have his or her vote count on Election Day. (The bill) creates a real risk that New Hampshire voters will be denied their right to vote,” Lynch said in his veto message. Lynch noted that voter turnout in New Hampshire is among the highest in the country. The Democratic governor discounted Republicans claims that requiring a photo ID would reduce fraud. “There is no voter fraud problem in New Hampshire,” he wrote. “We already have strong election laws that are effective in regulating our elections.” Lynch vetoed a similar bill in 2006, a veto that was sustained. Though Republicans hold a supermajority in the House and Senate, the bill did not pass by the two-thirds majority needed in the Senate to assure supporters can override the veto. A vote to override it isn’t expected until this fall. Under the bill, people without acceptable identification can cast provisional ballots. For the vote to be counted, they must return by noon on the Friday after the Tuesday election with a government-issued photo identification. Voters also could get a waiver from the photo identification requirement from the Secretary of State or request and receive a voucher to cover the cost of getting photo identification from the state Department of Motor Vehicles. They also can sign an affidavit claiming a religious exemption to having their photograph taken. Lynch said those provisions would present hurdles to senior citizens, students, people who are disabled or do see VETO page 1o
LOS ANGELES (AP) — One of baseball’s proudest franchises is in tatters, its future to be decided not on the field but in the courtroom. The Los Angeles Dodgers filed for bankruptcy protection in a Delaware court Monday, blaming Major League Baseball for refusing to approve a multibillion-dollar TV deal that owner Frank McCourt was counting on to keep the troubled franchise afloat. McCourt, upset that baseball Commissioner Bud Selig rejected the proposed TV deal last week, hopes a federal judge will approve $150 million in financing to be used for daily operations, which would give him more time to seek a more favorable media contract. A hearing is set for Tuesday at 1:30 p.m. (EDT) in Wilmington, Del. “The action taken today by Mr. McCourt does nothing but inflict further harm to this historic franchise,” Selig said in a statement. Former players are owed millions and even beloved Hall of Fame announcer Vin Scully is owed more than $150,000 as part of his contract, court documents show. The filing by a cash-starved McCourt comes just days before he was expected to miss a team payroll on Thursday and possibly be confronted with an MLB takeover. Legal observers expect MLB to contest McCourt’s request for filing bankruptcy, arguing the dispute should remain within the confines of baseball. Baseball’s constitution allows Selig to take control of a team that seeks Chapter 11 protection.
MLB would have to file a motion to seek termination of the franchise. A person familiar with the filing, who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the situation is still in flux, said MLB will wait to see what happens in the hearing before deciding which way to go. The main issue is whether “the bankruptcy court maintains control of the proceedings or acquiesce to baseball,” said Edward Ristaino, who chairs the sports practice at the law firm Akerman Senterfitt. The Dodgers are playing below .500 this season. First-year manager Don Mattingly acknowledged it was odd to think of the team filing for bankruptcy. “Obviously a franchise as storied as we are and entrenched in the history of the game, in a big city like LA, a great fanbase, to look at that and say this is happening,” Mattingly said before Monday night’s game at Minnesota. “It is different.” The Baltimore Orioles in 1993 and the Texas Rangers last year were sold in federal bankruptcy court, though in neither case did MLB seize the team first. In 2009, the Chicago Cubs went into bankruptcy for several weeks as part of the sales process after Tribune Co. agreed to sell the team to the family of billionaire Joe Ricketts. “For somebody who grew up as a Dodger fan since he was 6 in Brooklyn, this makes me very, very sad,” said Bob Daley, the Dodgers’ managing partner when Rupert Murdoch’s Fox Corp. sold the team to McCourt in 2004. see DODGERS page 10

Truck overturns on I-93 in Concord
CONCORD (AP) — New Hampshire State Police are investigating a tractor-trailer crash that tied up traffic for hours in Concord. Police say the truck rolled onto its side on Interstate 93 blocking both southbound lanes Monday morning and releasing about 60 gallons of diesel fuel. No one was injured. Police say it appears that the truck was traveling at an unsafe speed as it was trying to exit 393 and enter Interstate 93, which led to the trailer shifting and the vehicle rolling over. The southbound lanes of 93 were closed for two and half hours while the truck was moved and the fuel cleaned up.

An ethical school Having been a practicing school psychologist as well as a teacher in higher education since 1971, I have come to certain conclusions about what makes good education. This column is a sequel to my satirical column of June 14. I call this an ethical school because education at this school is concerned about children doing well and doing good, and it keeps in focus the kind of adults that children should turn out to be. It also uses sound child development research as a basis for its curriculum. On entering this school, there are no slogans over the portals because the faculty, staff and administration believe that actions speak louder than words and that too often words take the place of actions. For example, the Highlander School in Wilder, Tennessee, was an integrated school developed by Myles Horton in the 1950s. The school never even mentioned the word “integration” but it was very instrumental in starting the civil rights movement in the south despite attacks from the Klan and Senator Joseph McCarthy. On entering this school, one notices how positive students, staff and faculty are and how cordial they are toward one another. The school climate is a very positive one and visitors immediately feel welcome and at home. This school has many commendations from accrediting agencies and has only five levels or grades: The first level is for infants, toddlers, preschoolers and kindergarten students and the older children in the school often come to observe and help out with these young children as in reading stories to them. The second level serves children ages 6-8 years old and there are many flexible groupings in the class based on interests, skills and learning styles. The third level serves children from ages 9-11; the fourth level serves early adolescents from 12-14 and the fifth level serves older adolescents ages 15-18+. Children stay with the same teacher or co-teachers from 3 to 5 years depending on the level. Learning is project-based so children are able to see connections across all subjects and there are very rigorous and specific criteria to follow in presenting their topics because quality is stressed over
quantity. Children learn their basic skills and a lot more. At all levels children help each other and often younger children help older children because age is not seen as an absolute criterion for ability. Portfolios reflect skills development and are used in addition to report cards. Children run the parent-teacher conferences. Children engage in self-evaluation and rate themselves in such categories as novice and expert in different areas, and they are able to demonstrate ways to move from lower to higher levels. Children at this school are mainly in competition with themselves. The report cards focus on such areas as inquiry, thinking, open-mindedness, knowledge, balance, caring, communication, risktaking, reflection and principles. Teachers are provided time to meet regularly as a group to brainstorm ways to improve the curriculum, review policies and to find ways to help individual children improve in their academic skills or behavior. Parent involvement is very strong and there is a Parent Advisory Council. Parents sit on committees and help select new teachers. Parents also are involved in power sharing and decision-making. They do not just bake cookies for PTA meetings. All teachers must have master’s degrees before getting tenure, which takes six years. Teacher evaluation involves multiple evaluations – self-evaluation, student evaluation, parent evaluation, staff evaluation and administrator evaluation. There is a strong teacher’s union but it is not adversarial because the parents of this school are very supportive of the teachers based on the high achievement and happiness of their children. Thus, wages and benefits are negotiated in a civil manner. There are no required oaths or pledges in this school but an optional pledge by Lillian Mellen Genser is offered each morning: “I pledge allegiance to the world, to cherish every living thing to care for earth and sea and air, with peace and freedom everywhere.” (More tomorrow.) (Leo R. Sandy is professor of counselor education at Plymouth State University and a consulting school psychologist.)
The more money that’s printed the less each dollar is worth To the editor, I am writting in response to Johan Anderson’s letter “Print more money & get it into people’s hand so they can spend it” in the June 25th issue of the Laconia Daily Sun. Everyone knows the truth about the economy. The problem is that no one wants to acknowledge the fact that our economy “sucks”. as you put it. The five reasons you listed for no one having any money are just five of the places that our struggling economy is being hit the hardest. The real reason is that we (and
by we I mean America as a whole) overspend and overspend. The result of all this overspending is debt. You do happen to be right about one thing: the economy won’t get better until we have more money to spend. However, what the government should not do is print more money. The best way is through tax and budget cuts. I am not a Republican and I am not a Democrat, I barely follow politics at all, but I do know a little bit about how the economy works, so listen closely. see MONEY next page
LETTERS Meredith selectman need to rethink appeal of ZBA’s decision To the editor, Attention Meredith taxpayers: I just read an article in the Meredith News titled Selectmen will appeal ZBA (Zoning Board of Adjustment) decision to court. This article goes into details on how a variance was granted on a property in the Business and Industry District after letters were written by the Community Development director and the Water and Sewer superintendent opposing this request and some residents spoke against it. The applicant provided letters from direct abutters in favor. I am one of those direct abutters but I am also the chairman of the ZBA, so by law I could not participate in this hearing. I am writing as a resident and taxpayer. As the article goes on to say the hearing was held, everybody had their say and then the board granted the variance on a 4 to 1 vote. The article then continues to say that the next week, Duncan McNeish and Chuck Braxton presented a letter to the Board of Selectmen saying they felt the ZBA made an error and asked the selectmen to request a re-hearing to overturn the ZBA decision. What the article DID NOT SAY was the following. They also requested that “given the greater good of the purpose of the appeal should they decide to appeal the decision themselves they would like all town fees for the filers WAIVED and that if the variance is not vacated on re-hearing the FILERS ARE PREPARED TO ELEVATE THIS MATTER TO THE COURTS.” After some discussion about — we have a procedure for requests like this and we don’t have all the facts and we need more time — the board was told by a board member and the town manager you don’t have time you have to make a decision now and the board member that always wants to
study things said he was comfortable in making a decision then. The decision for the selectmen to request the rehearing was made and they proceeded to hire the two attorneys that were needed (one for the selectmen and one for the ZBA) at the taxpayers’ expense. The rehearing took place and the ZBA reaffirmed its previous decision. At the June 20th selectmen’s meeting the same two people that said that if the ZBA did not change their decision they would elevate it to the courts appeared before the selectmen and asked them if they, the selectmen would now take the ZBA to court in their behalf and have the taxpayers foot the bill. To the astonishment to most of the people in the room, the selectmen did not respond by saying, we, at the town’s expense requested the rehearing on your behalf and it is now time for you to proceed as you previously indicated you would do. The town manager then asked town council what their chances of winning were. Town council responded they would need a non-public session for that answer, which they had and it was decided that the selectmen would now sue the ZBA, which is appointed by the selectmen. This action, according to a senior town official, will cost the taxpayers thousands of dollars which could be avoided if the selectmen would drop this suit quickly and let the two who said they would pursue it do so. I am going to attribute their decision to a momentary lapse of their normal good judgment and ask them to remember that good leaders can change their minds to the benefit of all and it is not to late to do so. I wonder how other taxpayers feel? John (Jack) Dever Jr Meredith

LETTERS If we agree to stop pay income tax we’ll have successful revolt To the editor, Marc Abear writes many interesting, long letters, sometimes losing us in the details. His June 21 letter demands an answer, or extension. Column 2: “deficit is simply too large to close with spending cuts alone”. That defies all logic! It’s quite simple for the rest of us: if we don’t have the money we can’t spend it! Federal spending is MOSTLY PORK, unneeded construction jobs to payoff union supporters, pet local projects to make local congressman popular, etc, but they won’t admit that! When faced with NEEDED cuts all those LIARS in Congress FIRST attack well funded Social Security and Medicare, to scare the people. The FIRST cut should be the GROSS asinine Congressmen’s PAY! For less than three days a week for less than one-half a year they give themselves more than top paid company executives, but with million dollar perks and unlimited retirement pay, even when fired! A public revolt is in order! Marc’s comment that the overall tax take is at it’s lowest ignores that OBAMA has caused overall income to be at a record low! You CAN’T tax what the people don’t have! Anyone in government listening? No, never! Later Marc snuck up on reality, with comment “eliminate tax loop holes”. The absolute best, and maybe ONLY way to do that is to REPLACE
the totally confused special interest income tax with the “FAIR TAX”. No loop holes, no special gifts, NO RECORD keeping or complex forms to fill out and submit! You just buy what you need (or desire), pay the consumption tax on it AT THAT TIME, and you are done with it! Oh, and everyone gets a tax return of the taxes on what is determined to be the minimum survival income (ie, twice what we manage to live on now). That eliminates the cost of tax record keeping and tax filing, which is 10 times actual tax cost. Major employers will see that as a reason to bring back offshore jobs. Eliminate income tax that and those jobs will quickly come back! Oh, but that is too logical and simple, so our totally STUPID government will never accept it, without a major revolt. So, let’s revolt! No one, and no company, pay any income tax, and we all support any the IRS tries to collect from. Simple, easy, and the illegal government MUST comply! Sorry that most of you don’t know history, and don’t know that was the way the USA was formed! Are we going to throw away our best history just due to failure of our schools to teach real history? Think about that if you can. Jack Stephenson, only 78, and I still believe in our Constitution! Jack Stephenson Gilford
Gilmanton teachers’ act was typical liberal tactic of demonization To the editor, For those surprised with the actions of Gilmanton teachers toward Senator Forsythe, I say stick around this is just the same old stuff. If you question the school, the administration, the funding you are the “bad guy”. Certainly, you are not “community minded”. You must have an anger issue or a grudge, or better yet a chip on your shoulder. This is the typical liberal tactic of demonizing anyone that dares challenge the cushy status quo. Those that do come into this little community that have different ideas and look to find ways to revitalize and institute ideas to improve the school situation without throwing money into the endless pit are quickly beaten down and shunned by those “community minded individuals”. I have been on this side of the fence for many years. To those how think that this is how a community works,
I say think again. In your own twisted haze, you can pat yourselves on the back and tell yourselves how wonderful you are. But, meanwhile our children suffer. Test scores are in the tank. More days are allocated toward “specials”, skiing, field trips, teacher workshops, yada yada. I wonder how much instruction our children really end up with out of a total school year. Attendance rates are dropping, overall achievement levels are dropping, and the teachers who are in the unions are running scared. It’s the Teaparty’s fault! No it is your fault, you have been indoctrinated by your own indoctrination for way too long. You need to get a dose of reality. MONEY will not fix this problem and neither will your attempts to keep demonizing others that don’t believe in your agenda! Cindy L. Houghton Gilmanton
MONEY from preceding page The more money the government prints, the less the worth of our dollar becomes. Our dollar is already getting to be pretty worthless, but to print more money will only raise the prices on everything. And when prices rise, the strain on America will be even greater. I’m 20 years old, and even I’m not so unwise as to say the government needs to print more money. Perhaps you never took economics while in high school, because this is basic knowledge of infla-
tion. Budget and tax cuts are a step in the right direction. We may not like it, but we have avoided the consequences for so long that we need to make harsh decisions, and cutting budgets and taxes are harsh but logical decisions. America’s recovery is going to be long and painful, but I’d rather have long and painful than a quick fix that won’t help, like your misguided belief that the government should print more money.

LETTERS Co-op’s so-called ‘smart grid’ is just one more element of control To the editor, Starting this month, the first three thousand members of the N.H. Electric Co-op will be receiving the new meters, to be followed by the rest of the 35,000 members of the Lakes Region. (I don’t remember being asked if I would like a Smart Grid; what’s wrong with the old meter?) The letter goes on to extol the virtues of this grid: “Think of your smart meter as one link in a big chain. Your meter will automatically report usage data several times a day. (Why is that necessary?) Each transmission will send a reading to the next closest meter, which then relays that data, as well as its own reading, to the next meter in the chain.” “This process continues until eventually that bundle of data reaches a “gatekeeper which sends it to NHEC headquarters for processing.” (What are they hoping to accomplish/control by doing this?) It goes on to say, “In short, very little will change. Power rates will not change and you will still be billed once a month.” (Really? This seems to conflict with President Obama’s assertion that “electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket.”) In light of President Obama’s stated intentions, this is the part that should create the most skepticism in the minds of NHEC customers: ”NHEC will not be controlling your electric usage in any way. Simply installing a smart meter does not give NHEC the ability or the right to control how or when you use energy in your home or business.” (I have a bridge in Antarctica to sell you if you believe that!) EXCUSE ME? This government has been usurping our freedoms little-by-little in recent years in small, sugar-coated, palatable morsels. We Americans continue to swallow these seemingly insignificant morsels, unaware of the cumulatively harmful effects that they are having on us. This slow encroachment is exactly the intention of those who desire to curtail our liberties and gain more power over our lives. In the words of
James Madison, “I believe there are more instances of the abridgement of freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments by those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations.” One hears the terms “socialism” or “Marxism” used more often these days. Some find these terms to be unconstructive pejoratives, while those of us who study history understand that these terms are frighteningly accurate in relation to the current political climate. Who can forget the chilling words of Nikita Kruschev: “We cannot expect the Americans to jump from capitalism to communism, but we can assist their elected leaders in giving Americans small doses of socialism, until they suddenly awake to find they have communism.” Consider that quote in the light of current proposals/ policies of the Obama administration — tracking devices on cars, computers, banks, and medical records; the Net Neutrality Act; the Fairness Doctrine; internet “kill switch”; the socalled “green” agenda; and so on. Wake up New Hampshire. This socalled “Smart Grid” is just one more element of control that the government has been silently implementing in recent years. Notice — they will be installing these “Smart Government-Controlled Grids” whether you like it or not! Go ask residents of California how these ubiquitous grids control temperatures according to government, and not consumer, demands. Maybe we should expect this from California, but we are New Hampshire! Does “Live Free or Die!” still mean anything to us, or is it just a catchy slogan? New Hampshire residents, stand up and say “NO!” to Smart Grids! I have spoken to a number of NHEC customers and asked whether they were aware of the Smart Grids. Not one person read the letter or knew anything about it. Wake up N.H. Lee Campbell Gilford

LETTERS Spell check turned ‘radicals’ into ‘reticules’; I had to look it up To the editor, Gee a funny thing happened to me on my way to “A Letter to the Editor” the other day. My wife called up the stairs, “We have to go, hurry up”. Right now I don’t remember where it was we were going because I just read my letter in today’s paper. I called down “Okay, just a quick spell check, hun”. You all know how that goes, CHANGE click, CHANGE click. Well now today I’m reading, “Look at this one issue for example and compare it to like reticules. What? Reticules, reticules! What the heck are reticules? I’ve never heard that word before, where did that come from? Oh yea, spell check. Is it even a real word. Sounds like a medical term like some
poor bastard had a bad bicycle accident. Hey I feel your pain pall! Get out the dictionary quick. Wow, it is really a real word? (reticule= a woman’s drawstring handbag. orig. of net) How about that? Well it’s not like I haven’t been warned, Jack Stephenson has scolded me before about spell check giving out real words which are not those I intended. My apologies to the readers for the confusion and to Jack for not heading his advice. What that sentence should have read was, “Look at this one issue for example and compare it to like RADICALS.

REGISTRATION DEADLINE JUNE 30th
Any question the professor will be up for Nobel Prize for literature? To the editor, After rereading Professor Sandy’s “Dream School” column, I was in awe of how full of it he is. So, without further ado, I request his immediate canonization. I now recognize this elitist and this elitist alone, as the preeminent, illustrious, cantankerous loose canon of collegiate calamity. His June 14th column was, without a doubt, the most wonderful, zany tongue in cheek jab at conservatives, Christians and all things moral. His flawless blending of the characteristics of a mooncalf, a flibbertigibbet and a supercilious twit would most certainly rival the best comedic bits performed by the likes of Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert and Bill Maher. Professor Irwin Corey and the court jester from Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night must be looking down from above with absolute breathtaking admiration for his royal professorship, caretaker of codswallop and all things excrement. Does anyone doubt that the noble progressives from Norway have already begun the nomination process for the learned professor. A Nobel Peace Prize in Literature for the most daffy, despicable, derisive words written by a loony liberal since,
uh yesterday, will undoubtedly be forthcoming. Professor Leo R. Sandy, you’ve done it again. I do indeed bow to your grateness. Your complete and utter fingernail across the chalkboard grateness that you do so very well. What’s not to love about your perverse way of looking at the world. Your totally cynical, warped vision of which political party has been more racist over the years. Your silly, secular,subversive put down of patriotism, God, guns and Old Glory. Your “Mad Woman of Chaillot” perspective on the free enterprise system. These must be such exciting times for you. You must have been ecstatic upon hearing that NBC left God out of the Pledge of Allegiance which preceded the final round of golf’s U.S. Open. You must have been absolutely delirious when you heard that a New York City school made their schoolchildren change “saints” to “ants” before they were allowed to sing, “When the Saints Go Marching In”. You, Professor Leo R. Sandy, are one mad, mendacious mess of perfunctory pettiness and persnickety peculiarity. God Love ya. Russ Wiles Tilton

Councilor Armand Bolduc opens the Summer Lawn Party to Friends of the Goss Reading Room on Sunday in Lakeport. (Courtesy photo)
Friends of Goss Reading Room hold out for better weather, rewarded with perfect day for a summer lawn party LACONIA — With a 70-percent chance of rain or even a thunderstorm, the odds were against the Friends of the Goss Reading Room in Lakeport proceeding with their plans for a Summer Lawn Party on Saturday. They chose the rain date of Sunday and beat the odds. Those that followed the change and attended enjoyed an intermittent sunny and cloudy day and a day of fun, games, music and food. The old-fashioned theme was directed to the youngsters, with clothespin arts and crafts including the Fourth of July with fireworks art, pinwheel, thumbprint art and many games such as Tic Tac Stone and Polka Dot Penny Pitch, paper airplanes and more. The children were kept very busy. Simple tools found around the house provided simple fun. Local historian, Warren Huse, presented the History of the Goss Reading Room, City Councilman Armand Bolduc brought all up-to-date with the repairs of the library and plans to continue with the maintenance. Steve Fay introduced the connection with the local Elm Street School and announced the Summer Reading Program sign-ups begin June 27 and thereafter with the program, “One
World, Many Stories” and starts July 5 at the Goss. Wanda Tibbetts, interim President of the Friends of the Goss, encouraged public support to increase the use of this historic little library. Children were in rapt attention as Dick Monasky led them in song with “Take Me Out to the Ballgame”, and recited “Casey at the Bat” and “Twins”. Allie Dennis, a 10th-grader sang “God Bless America” and demonstrated modern dance with the hula hoop. Allie is not only an excellent singer and promising actress, but has her own book of poems published. Gary Hammond supplied the sound system. Kris Snow recited historian, Claire Clark’s poem written for the Goss’ 100th Anniversary, “The Goss Reading Room”. Bolduc led a group tour of the Goss allowing many to view it for the first time. The garden work of Brenda Moulton and Suzanne Perley were appreciated by guests. Friends of the Goss Reading Room, who hosted the free lawn party, thanked the public for their support and hope for their continued support with the increased use of this little library on a knoll at 188 Elm Street in Lakeport.
ILLINOIS from page 2 keep my remarks kind of short,” Blagojevich said, adding that the couple wanted “to get home to our little girls and talk to them and explain things to them and then try to sort things out.” His two daughters are 8 and 14. The case exploded into scandal when Blagojevich was awakened by federal agents on Dec. 9, 2008, at his Chicago home and was led away in handcuffs. Federal prosecutors had been investigating his administration for years, and some of his closest cronies had already been convicted. Blagojevich was swiftly impeached and removed from office. The verdict provided affirmation to U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald,
one of the nation’s most prominent prosecutors, who, after the governor’s arrest, had condemned Blagojevich’s dealings as a “political corruption crime spree.” The key question for the jury was whether to accept the defense suggestion that Blagojevich’s activities amounted to “the kind of political wheeling and dealing that is common in Illinois and around the country.” “That,” said Fitzgerald, his voice rising, “couldn’t be any further from the truth. ... Selling a Senate seat, shaking down a children’s hospital and squeezing a person to give money before you sign a bill that benefits them is not a gray area. It’s a crime.” see next page

Doing so might have helped ensnare other conspirators. A U.S. Senate seat “should not be put up for sale. You should not let the sale happen. ... Our job is to try to prevent crime, not just prosecute crime,” he said. Fitzgerald pledged to retry the governor after the first jury failed to reach a decision on all but the least serious of 24 charges against him. On Monday, the jury voted to convict on 17 of 20 counts after deliberating nine days. Blagojevich also faces up to five additional years in prison for his previous conviction of lying to
the FBI. Blagojevich was acquitted of soliciting bribes in the alleged shakedown of a road-building executive. The jury deadlocked on two charges of attempted extortion related to that executive and funding for a school. Judge James Zagel has barred Blagojevich from traveling outside the area without permission. A status hearing to discuss sentencing was set for Aug. 1. The charges carry a possible sentence up to 300 years in prison, but federal guidelines mean he will serve only a fraction of that. Judges have enormous discretion in sentencing and can factor in a host of variables, including whether a defendant took the stand and lied. Prosecutors have said that Blagojevich did just that.

Gilford police report hauling 20 pot plants from Gunstock Acres home; couple arrested
Working from a tip, Gilford police say they found 20 marijuana plants on the Gunstock Acres home property of Raymond and Adrienee-Lee Dalton on Monday. (Gilford Police photos)
GILFORD — Police yesterday arrested a local couple who were allegedly cultivating marijuana at their home in Gunstock Acres. Raymond A. Dalton, 49, and Adrienne-Lee B. Dalton, 48, of 77 Tate Road were charged with manufacturing and possessing marijuana, a controlled drug, both class B felonies, released on $5,000 personal recognizance bail and scheduled to appear in Laconia District Court on August 4 when they will be arraigned. Detective Christopher Jacques said that information from an anonymous informant led to a straightforward investigation culminating with the arrests and seizure of 20 marijuana plants between a foot and more than two feet high as well as potting soil, fertilizer and seeds. Police also recovered a quantity of prepared marijuana, pipes and a bong. He said the plants were found growing outside the home. — Michael Kitch
DODGERS from page 3 The real estate developer bought the team in a highly leveraged $430 million deal that was the second-highest for a baseball team at the time. He became just the fourth owner in franchise history, and the sale marked the return of the team to family ownership, although the McCourt clan has been nothing like the O’Malleys. The O’Malleys owned the Dodgers or a stake in them for more than 50 years, an old-fashioned tenure of stability and tradition. Any problems were kept in-house, and employees were treated like family. The O’Malley family’s business was baseball. The McCourt family’s business has become everybody’s business. Two years ago, McCourt and his wife and former team CEO Jamie McCourt decided to divorce, prompting a tawdry fight over who owns the team. Their court filings revealed a lifestyle of excess, extreme even by the standards of LA’s super-rich: multiple lavish homes, private security, country club memberships, even a six-figure hair stylist on call for the couple. Daley rues the day the team was sold to McCourt. “Fox, myself, and MLB made a horrible mistake in not doing the proper due diligence on Frank McCourt,” he said. “I helped get him approved and for my piece, I feel very bad about it.”
In court documents, team Vice Chairman Jeff Ingram cited a significant drop in attendance, contributing about 10 percent of Dodger revenues to the league’s sharing program last year, and paying about $22 million in deferred compensation as reasons for filing bankruptcy. “To date, LAD has remained current in its obligations,” Ingram wrote. “However, LAD is now on the verge of running out of cash, the results of a perfect storm of events.” McCourt has taken out loans to stay afloat this season but his mounting financial problems were expected to balloon this week, when he owed tens of millions of dollars to meet payroll and other obligations. About $20 million is slated for current and deferred compensation by Thursday, while more than $18 million is required as a reserve to prefund money to be paid to players in 2012 under terms of the collective bargaining agreement, court documents show. The bankruptcy filing lists assets of up to $1 billion and debts up to $500 million. The Dodgers are obligated to pay $92.5 million in guaranteed player contracts, not including signing bonuses, and the team has nearly 300 full-time employees. It also noted a $67 million loan taken out against the parking lots at Dodger Stadium was set to mature Thursday.

According to affidavits filed in the Criminal Division by Belmont Police, he allegedly violated the protection order by calling his wife less than three hours later, while a Belmont Police Officer was at the Province Street home taking a statement. Taken into custody by a second Belmont Police Officer, Lima was read his Miranda rights and told he was being transferred to the Belknap County Jail for the evening. He allegedly admitted to police he had called her to ask why she was doing this to him. After police placed him in the cruiser, he was given back his cell phone and he allegedly used it send his wife some text messages. When he overheard her report and the subsequent call on the police officer’s radio, he allegedly admitted that he had sent her some messages. Lima was arraigned in court on June 23 and Judge Jim Carroll ordered him held on $1,500 cash bail. Lima apparently posted bail and one the same day he allegedly drove by his wife’s home at least twice and honked his horn. A woman who is a friend of Lima’s wife verified it was Lima who drive by and his wife called police again. About five minutes after Lima’ wife called police, a Gilmanton Police officer saw Lima driving south along Province Road and detained him. Released back into the custody of Belmont Police, Lima again allegedly admitted to driving by his wife’s house one time. Police also found a single pill of Adderall in his pants pocket and charged him with drug possession and breach of bail and well as a second charge of violation an order of restraint. He appeared June 24 in Laconia Circuit Court, Criminal Division and was ordered held on $2,500 cash-only bail. A guard at the Belknap County Jail said yesterday Lima was not incarcerated there. As part of the terms of his second release, Carroll also ordered that Lima live in Rhode Island with his parents, cede his permit to carry a pistol, and not come to Belknap County unless he has a supervised visit with his children or is on court business. — Gail Ober VETO from page 3 not drive and anyone who does not already have a state-issued or federally issued photo ID. He said they may not be able to obtain one in the limited time allowed by the bill. “Many town offices are closed or have only limited hours on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, when those voters who received a provisional ballot would be expected to return to produce a photo ID and have their vote counted,” he said. “Voters in areas see next page

ASSAULT from page one punched him in the face. After he left the 10 Arch St. apartment, he said Mosher alleged punched him several times in the face and kicked him. Police interviewed Mosher, Woodbury and a number of alleged witnesses who told them the victim had had a verbal argument with Woodbury and Mosher regarding a person the victim was allegedly dating. Two witnesses said the victim had allegedly threatened to slit Mosher’s throat. Woodbury has an extensive record in the court system. In 2003, he was convicted on disobeying a police officer. He was was convicted in 2004 for simple assault, shoplifting, disorderly conduct, possession of a controlled drug, possession of drug paraphernalia and receiving stolen property. In 2006, Woodbury was convicted on second degree assault in Belknap County Superior Court breach of bail and possession of controlled drugs in Concord from preceding page of the state where (motor vehicle) offices have been consolidated will also be disadvantaged.” He said that would present real hardships for some voters. Lynch noted that the New Hampshire City and Town Clerks Association, AARP, the League of Women Voters and the secretary of state opposed provisions of the bill. “The bill’s provisions for the length of time to produce a valid photo ID after an election and the types of photo IDs allowed are among the most restrictive vote identification provisions in the nation despite any evidence that current law is insufficient protection against voter fraud,” Lynch wrote. He said if the bill became law, New Hampshire would have a different and more lenient standard to register to vote than to actually cast a ballot. Currently, people who register before Election Day can sign an affidavit in lieu of producing a photo ID. When a photo ID is used to register, the local clerk can accept identification that is not governmentissued. Lynch said the bill would allow a state trooper to use an agency-issued ID because it was issued by the state. The same would not be true of a local police officer presenting a town-issued photo ID at the polls. Similarly, someone could use a Massachusetts or Maine driver’s license as a valid ID, but not a municipal ID issued by a town, he said. “Creating a two-tiered system of photo IDs for registering and voting makes no sense,” he said. “It will only cause confusion and frustration at the polls that is bound to result in preventing some voters from casting their vote on Election Day.” Lynch also pointed out there is no provision guaranteeing confidentiality for those casting a provisional ballot as there is for casting absentee ballots. Finally, he said the delay in counting provisional ballots would jeopardize the state’s ability to conclude its September primary election with enough time to prepare and send general election ballots to the military and other overseas voters in compliance with federal law. Kevin Smith, executive director of Cornerstone Action, criticized Lynch for vetoing what he called a common-sense bill. He said Lynch was pandering to extremists in his party. “Hopefully, the Republican-controlled legislature will do the right thing here and once again override this poor decision by the governor,” he said. Republican House Speaker William O’Brien said it’s disappointing that “Lynch has chosen against making sure our elections are as pure as possible and free of corruption.” “Today, our citizens have to show a valid ID to get on a plane, on a bus, to pick up a package and to enter a federal building. It certainly is not a major imposition to ask for a driver’s license or other ID in order to protect the integrity of voting,” O’Brien said. But voting rights groups hailed the veto and urged lawmakers to sustain it. “The sponsors of (the bill) do a terrible disservice to our citizens and our state’s reputation by falsely claiming this legislation is needed to protect our elections,” said Joan Flood Ashwell of the New

District Court. In 2007, Woodbury was convicted of simple assault (a violation) in Laconia District Court and in 2008 he was convicted of criminal mischief in Concord District Court and the fraudulent use of a credit card in Laconia District Court. In 2009, he was convicted of violating a protective order and the unauthorized use of a propelled vehicle and in 2010 he was convicted on witness tampering in Belknap county superior court and willful concealment in Salem district court. Earlier this year, On Feb. 1 he was convicted on theft by unauthorized taking and on Feb. 4 he was convicted of unauthorized use of forged motor vehicle documents, both in Laconia District Court. Police affidavits didn’t list any conviction for Mosher but was held on cash bail because he is already out on bail and is facing charges for aggravated felonious sexual assault. Affidavits indicate the victim had corrective surgery on his eye socket. Gordon ordered Woodbury and Mosher to stay away from each other and the victim should one or both of them post bail.

Gilford blogger honored by Americans for Prosperity GILFORD — Americans for Prosperity (AFP) Foundation has named David “Skip” Murphy of Gilford, who hosts the conservative political blog GraniteGrok and the radio talk show GrokTalk, as its “Activist of the Year” for 2011. The award was presented at the fourth annual RightOnline Conference in Minneapolis, which was attended by some 1,200 conservative and libertarian activists last week. Each year AFP honors an individual for their effective use of online media to further personal liberty and economic freedom. GraniteGrok describes itself as “fire-breathing, Mtn Dew powered, extremist, right-wing, hard-charging, gun-toting, opinionated, outspoken, rabble rousing, letter writing, radio microphone stomping, buying ink electrons by the
barrel Conservatives and Rational Libertarians!” A technical analyst for a software firm headquartered in California, Murphy was drawn to local politics by Doug Lambert, with whom he shared the blog and microphone until Lambert withdrew after intemperate insults about New Hampshire Democratic Party chairman Ray Buckley reached the public. Murphy stayed the course, allying himself with the Tea Party and drawing contributors from the libertarian wing of the Republican Party, to become a strident voice in conservative circles. Murphy has served on the Gilford Budget Committee since his election in 2006 and is the father of two sons serving in the United States armed forces. — Michael Kitch
GARDEN from page one and Recreation Director Kevin Dunleavy and won approval of the plan from the Parks and Recreation Commission, but on the recommendation of Councilor Armand Bolduc (Ward 6) was also seeking the blessing of the council. Doucette circulated a sketch of the garden, explaining that the roses would be interspersed with “breathless euphorbia white diamond,” an annual. The planting would be ringed with granite bricks and the garden designated by a carved granite marker. The council referred the proposal to its Lands and Building Committee in the expectation of a timely recommendation. NOTES: Acting City Manager Pam Reynolds assured the City Council that although the final tally of revenues and expenses from Motorcycle Week is not complete, “we will have a positive balance.” She said that the expenses for the Police Department and Fire Department were 30-percent and 22-percent under budget respectively. . . . . . Reynolds also reported that the effort to reinstate the property tax exemption for telephone poles and conduits, a perennial political football in the Legislature pitting the New Hampshire Municipal Association against the telecommunication industry, ultimately failed. However, she cautioned the councilors against getting”too excited” since only $17,000 in property tax revenue was at risk. . . . . . City Clerk Mary Reynolds urged the council to consider upgrading one position in her department from part-time to fulltime in order to ensure prompt service to residents. She acknowledged that apart from the additional
wages, the city would also incur the cost of health insurance and retirement contributions. But, she emphasized that since her department was shrunk, service has suffered as waiting lines and times have grown longer. . . . . . Councilor Bob Hamel (Ward 5) expressed concern with “the general appearance of downtown,” referring specifically to weeds in the sidewalks and dead trees on the streets. Likewise, he said that a vacant lot at Busy Corner has become overgrown with trees and brush to present another eyesore. Pam Reynolds said that Kevin Dunleavy, Parks and Recreation Director, has prepared a maintenance plan for downtown addressing these and other issues. Although Dunleavy has been unable to enlist inmates to do the work, she said he has been authorized to engage private contractors to remove trees. Hamel also recommended restoring $25,000 for sidewalk repairs to the 2011-2012 budget. — Michael Kitch

from preceding page Hours earlier McConnell reaffirmed Republican opposition to more tax hikes in a speech from the Senate floor. “It’s time Washington take the hit,” he said, “not the taxpayers.” McConnell said any tax increase or new spending would be counterproductive to economic recovery, and he pointed out that Democrats had been unable to pass tax increases on the wealthy when they controlled both chambers of Congress last year. “Let’s move past tax hikes, talk about what’s actually possible, and let’s talk about what has and hasn’t worked over the past two years,” said the Kentucky Republican. Reid said, “I hope my Republican colleagues will put the economy ahead of politics.” Speaking on the Senate floor, he said, “I hope they’ll join us to create jobs and set aside their desire to please the tea party and defeat President Obama.” At issue is not just the staggering national debt but a showdown on the federal borrowing limit that carries enormous risks. Absent an agreement that cuts long-term deficits, Republicans say they will not vote to increase the nation’s borrowing, which will exceed its $14.3 trillion limit on Aug. 2. The administration has warned that if Congress does not raise the debt ceiling, it could mean the first U.S. financial default in history and send economic shockwaves around the world. To meet government obligations, a two-year increase in the debt ceiling would have to be about $2.4 trillion.

Gunstock officially opens new $1.2-million bridge largely paid for with stimulus funds By Gail OBer
THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
GILFORD — After six months of planning, 18 months of construction and one key legislative amendment the bridge spanning Area Road to Gunstock Mountain Resort was officially opened yesterday afternoon. Cutting the red ribbon was Rep. James Pilliod who represents Belknap District 5 that encompasses Gilford, Belmont, Alton and Barnstead and the author of a piece of legislation that allowed county-owner bridges to qualify for state and local transportation aid. Gunstock Director Greg Goddard thanked local builder CLD, local contractor RM Piper and Nancy Mayville of the N.H. Department of Transportation for getting the bridge completed earlier than deadline. “We had to get a ski area open,” said Goddard
expressing his gratitude for taking all of his concerns in stride and with good humor. According to Gunstock Commissioner Robert Durfee, himself a bridge engineer, the initial bridge was built in 1936 and was classified by the Department of Transportation as “poor” with crumbling concrete, site distance issues and drainage problems. Durfee said the bridge had been included in the state’s “Red List” and Guntock was able to get a few repairs done but had noted the bridge must be replaced by 2014. Goddard said the town selectmen, coupled with the Gunstock Commission, and Belknap County political leaders worked with Gunstock to get the bridge including in federal stimulus funding because it was “shovel ready” in the fall of 2009. The total cost of the bridge was $1.2-million with $935,000 coming from federal recovery money.
TRIAL from page one her, Anthony could face the death penalty. “Based upon the reports that the court has reviewed, the court will find that the defendant is competent to proceed,” Perry said at the start of Monday’s hearing. Prosecutors have argued that Anthony placed duct tape over Caylee Anthony’s mouth, suffocating the toddler in summer 2008. Her skeletal remains were found in December that year in the woods near her grandparents’ home and much of the forensic evidence produced at the trial has been about what the body revealed. Defense attorneys claim Caylee Anthony accidentally drowned in the family’s swimming pool and that Anthony and her father, George, covered it up. George Anthony has denied any such theory. In the motion to dismiss, the defense said the new jurors should not be asked before being selected whether they would be qualified to consider the death penalty. Attorneys sought the motion based on a federal judge’s ruling in Miami last week. It declared Flor-
ida’s death penalty unconstitutional because jurors are not required to say what aggravating factor or factors led them to recommend death. Judges, though, are required to explain why they impose death sentences. They aren’t required to follow jury recommendations but must give them great weight. The ruling does not automatically void Florida’s death penalty law. Anthony’s attorneys have asked for a hearing on the motion but it had not been scheduled as of Monday evening.

The count currently stands at 792 boxes of books — all sorted and packed ready for the big weekend. The Library also has hundreds of VHS tapes plus audiobooks, games, and puzzles. Hardcover books, games, and puzzles will be priced at $1 each; paperbacks, children’s books, VHS and cassette tapes will be priced at 50 cents. Everything will be marked down to 25 cents on Monday, the final day of the sale. In addition, a bake sale will be held by the Women’s Club on Saturday, with coffee and donuts, sandwiches, cold drinks, and baked
goodies to take home. Monday’s parade will get underway at 11 a.m. Volunteers are needed to help move the boxes of books out of the Library basement and into the tents on Friday evening, July 1, starting at 5 p.m. and also to help during the sale and with the cleanup on Monday afternoon, July 4. Anyone who can help is encouraged to call the library at 476-8895.

Water quality planning efforts for Bristol and New Hampton to be discussed at PSU tonight MEREDITH — The Lakes Region Planning Commission (LRPC) will present an informational meeting about local water quality planning efforts at the Pemigewasset River Local Advisory Committee (PRLAC) meeting in Boyd Hall on the camput of Plymouth State University at 7 p.m. tonight. With an abundance of streams, rivers, ponds, and lakes, it is important that individuals and communities throughout the Lakes Region work to maintain the quality of these natural resources. Over the past several months, the LRPC has been working with the Bristol and New Hampton Planning Boards
on local issues related to the quality of local water bodies. New Hampton chose to focus on wetlands while Bristol explored erosion and sediment control. A presentation summarizing this work will be given at the meeting. All are welcome to attend and take part in the discussion. Funding for this project was provided by the NH Department of Environmental Services through Section 604(b) of the Clean Water Act with funds appropriated by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. For more information, visit www.lakesrpc.org or call 279-8171.
Dexter Hale Memorial Golf Tourney postponed to July 29 MEREDITH — The date of the Dexter Hale Memorial Golf Tournament has been moved to Wednesday, July 29. The Rotary Club and Hale family changed the date due to the rain that caused cancellation of the original date on Friday, June 24. The upcoming tournament will have a 1 p.m. “shoot out” starting time at Waukewan Golf Club. All proceeds will benefit the Meredith Rotary Scholarship Fund in Hale’s name. Dexter Hale, a much loved member of the Rotary, died unexpectedly in Florida in January. He had perfect attendance at Rotary Club weekly meetings for more than 43 years and was a strong supporter of the Rotary scholarship fund. “The Hale Family and The Waukewan Golf Club have been generous supporters of our community for many years,” said Ted Fodero, president-elect of the Meredith Rotary Club, who has worked with the family to establish the tournament. “We want to honor Dexter’s generosity, kindness and long-time commitment to the Rotary Club, and there is no better way to do that than to include the game of golf, and the beautiful
Waukewan Golf Club, which Dexter also truly loved.” Pre-registration for this golf tournament is recommended. For information and registration, call Ted Fodero at 279-4591 or Vynnie Hale at 279-6661.

Free vegan barbecue in Northfield on Sat.
NORTHFIELD — A vegan barbecue and picnic, free and open to the public, will be held at the Pines Park at 1 p.m. on Saturday, July 2. Louisa Dell’Amico is organizing the event to have fun and introduce some good-tasting healthier choices to traditional American barbecues. “So far, we have people bringing vegan sausage with veggie shish kebabs, vegan Divine burgers, mock tuna sandwiches, Boston baked beans, corn on the cob, vegan coleslaw, lemon rice w/cashews and raisins, pistachio and rosewater cookies, and I’m going to try my hand at making mango sorbet with raspberry sauce,” Dell’Amico said. “You don’t have to be a vegan to come to the barbecue/picnic. You can be a vegetarian, locavore, carnivore, or omnivore. If you’re interested in learning about healthier food choices, bring a vegan dish to share and we’d love to have you join us,” she said. Exactly what is vegan food? It’s plant-based food that contains no animal ingredients including meat, poultry, fish, dairy, eggs, or honey. Dell’Amico wants to educate the public about the high concentrations of cancer-causing substances that are formed when muscle meat, including beef, pork, fish, and poultry, is cooked using high-temperature methods such as barbecuing. “Barbecues seem to be growing in popularity with each passing summer,” Dell’Amico said. “In fact, I had a neighbor who had his barbecue going outside his garage all through the winter, as well. If you care about your health and having a good
quality of life that minimizes your chances for chronic diseases such as cancer, then you need to be informed about what you’re eating.” According to the National Cancer Institute, heterocyclic amines (HCAs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are formed when meats are cooked for a long time or at high temperatures (above 300). HCAs and PAHs have been found to be mutagenic in laboratory animal experiments, and may increase the risk of cancer. Epidemiologic studies have indicated that high consumption of well-done, fried, or barbecued meats was associated with increased risks of colorectal, pancreatic, and prostate cancer. In addition, Brenda Davis, R.D. stated that, “If an oil smokes when you heat it, you’re getting products of oxidation (called advanced glycation end products, or AGEs) forming that are very damaging to human health. At the top of the list for the highest levels of AGEs are broiled or barbecued frankfurters. Also high on the list are grilled or fried meats, poultry, or fish … even grilled tofu produces acrylamides, but in lower levels.” “If you come to the barbecue, I promise that we won’t be discussing meat or cancer,” Dell’Amico promised, then quipped, “And we also won’t be grilling any tofu!” Raindate for this event is Monday, July 4. R.S.V.P. with the name of a vegan dish you are bringing to louisa@ metrocast.net or call 729-0248.

By Holiday Mathis what makes you happy. When your heart sings, everything else in your life sways to the rhythm. Nothing beats the feeling. It’s like you suddenly know why you were born. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You check in with people and let them know that you care about their happiness. If there’s anything you can do to increase the satisfaction of those around you, you do it, and it doesn’t feel like work to you at all. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ll notice the needs and contributions of others, so mention what you see. Your comments will foster a mood of involvement and connection. There’s a culture of caring that is building all around you. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Fear is quite often self-preserving and lifesaving. So don’t berate yourself for feeling afraid, even if others are not afraid of the same thing. Perhaps your wariness shows greater intelligence. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Most people are too focused on themselves to give you the praise and encouragement you so deserve now. It will boost your self-esteem to imagine what others would be saying if they were more perceptive and tuned in to you. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 28). You achieve a heroic level of maturity. You forgive the past and rewrite it to support the success story of your future. Through wisdom and discipline, you attain a goal in July. Romance is alive in August. Your social schedule is packed with fun in September. Invest in yourself in October. Financial gain comes in April. Aries and Pisces people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 50, 25, 2, 15 and 1.
by Darby Conley
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You care a great deal -- perhaps even more than is healthy for you or effective for the situation. Consider dialing it back. What would happen if you let go just a little? Trust in life’s process. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You may not be entirely happy with the way you come across when the pressure is on. Give yourself credit anyway. You’re being much too hard on yourself these days. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). At this point, it would be nice to have a friend to help you understand your life -- someone with objectivity, wisdom, emotional intelligence and a gift for gentle communication. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Some jobs take only a matter of seconds, and yet you still can’t be bothered. That’s because you’re so focused on what matters to you now. You can always clean up the rough edges later. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your sense of self-worth will improve when you consciously decide to raise it up. Write down 10 things you like about yourself, and carry the list in your wallet. It’s more valuable than money. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You are genuinely interested in others -- where they are coming from, their stories and what they know. So you don’t think first about how it all applies to you; you just listen. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You will be somewhat disappointed in the actions of those around you. They can’t help that their perceptions are so different from yours, and they are only acting on what they know. Still, you feel the need to educate them. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Do

––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Tuesday, June 28, the 179th day of 2010. There are 186 days left in the year. Today’s Highlights in History: On June 28, 1914, Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria and his wife, Sophie, were assassinated in Sarajevo (sah-ruh-YAY’voh) by Serb nationalist Gavrilo Princip — the event which sparked World War I. On this date: In 1778, the Revolutionary War Battle of Monmouth (MAHN’-muth) took place in New Jersey; it was from this battle that the legend of “Molly Pitcher” arose. In 1919, the Treaty of Versailles (vehr-SY’) was signed in France, ending the First World War. In Independence, Mo., future president Harry S. Truman married Elizabeth Virginia Wallace. In 1939, Pan American Airways began regular trans-Atlantic air service with a flight that departed New York for Marseilles (mahrSAY’), France. In 1950, North Korean forces captured Seoul (sohl), the capital of South Korea. In 1951, a TV version of the radio comedy program “Amos ‘N’ Andy” premiered on CBS. (While criticized for racial stereotyping, it was the first network TV series to feature an all-black cast.) In 1978, the Supreme Court ordered the University of California-Davis Medical School to admit Allan Bakke (BAHK’-ee), a white man who argued he’d been a victim of reverse racial discrimination. In 1991, Joanne Was, a white woman, was attacked by a group of black women at a Detroit fireworks display in an incident captured on amateur video. (Five women later pleaded no contest to charges stemming from the incident.) In 2000, seven months after he was cast adrift in the Florida Straits, Elian Gonzalez was returned to his native Cuba. One year ago: The Supreme Court ruled, 5-4, that Americans have the right to own a gun for self-defense anywhere they live. Today’s Birthdays: Blues singer-musician David “Honeyboy” Edwards is 96. Comedian-movie director Mel Brooks is 85. Senate Armed Services Chairman Carl Levin, D-Mich., is 77. Comedian-impressionist John Byner is 74. CIA Director Leon Panetta is 73. Rock musician Dave Knights (Procul Harum) is 66. Actor Bruce Davison is 65. Actress Kathy Bates is 63. Actress Alice Krige is 57. College and Pro Football Hall of Famer John Elway is 51. Record company chief executive Tony Mercedes is 49. Actress Jessica Hecht is 46. Rock musician Saul Davies (James) is 46. Actress Mary Stuart Masterson is 45. Actor John Cusack is 45. Actor Gil Bellows is 44. Actress-singer Danielle Brisebois is 42. Jazz musician Jimmy Sommers is 42. Actress Tichina Arnold is 42. Actor Alessandro Nivola (nih-VOH’-luh) is 39.

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Tuesday, June 28, 2011— Page 21
ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Annie: I’m a young woman who is living at home for the summer before moving away in the fall. Here’s my dilemma: Several months ago, I excitedly arranged for my long-distance boyfriend to live with my family and get work nearby. Unfortunately, now that he’s here, I find that I simply don’t want to be in a relationship with him anymore. He hasn’t done anything wrong. I’m just a different person from who I was a couple of years ago when we began dating. Now his little flaws that I so desperately convinced myself to overlook seem increasingly like deal breakers. I’m planning to give the relationship a few more weeks to make sure this isn’t simply a phase, but frankly, I don’t expect my feelings to change. How do I handle this? I realize that hurting him is inevitable, but breaking up with him in the middle of the summer and making him move out of my parents’ home could seriously undermine his efforts to pay for his own education. What’s even worse is that my friends and family are putting serious effort into accepting him into the family because they expect us to get married. I hate that they may form an attachment to someone I am now planning to break up with. I want to do the right thing and cause the least possible amount of hurt. Please help me, Annie. -- Hearts Don’t Break Even Dear Hearts: Don’t worry about your friends and relatives. They will manage. But you do need to talk to your boyfriend as soon as possible and explain that the relationship isn’t going to work out. Some pain cannot be avoided, so better now than later. Be as gentle as possible. Apologize for uprooting him. And, since his livelihood is currently dependent on his living arrangements, it would be gracious if your parents would allow him to stay temporarily while he looks for a
place of his own. Offer to help him search. The fact that you are moving away in the fall will make this easier on both of you. Dear Annie: I hope you will print my pet peeve so retailers will take notice. No matter where I shop, no one knows how to properly give change. If I pay $20 for a $15.95 purchase, the change is handed to me in a pile of coins, bills and a receipt. I have to fumble to count it. I cashiered many years ago. I would give the customer the nickel, saying, “And five cents makes 16,” and then count out the remaining four dollars, saying, “Seventeen, 18, 19, 20.” Most cashiers today can’t add or subtract without the register to do the thinking for them. In addition, when the transaction is complete, I am told cheerfully, “Have a good one.” Have a good what? Whatever happened to a simple, “Thank you, and please come again”? And last but not least, why is the receipt so long? Imagine how much paper could be saved if they skipped the surveys and advertising. -- Inger from N.H. who Hates To Shop Dear Inger: One function of this column is to allow the readers to let off a little steam now and then. Hope you feel better. Dear Annie: The letter from “Disappointed Grandmother” reminded me of a story I heard many years ago. Two elderly ladies were talking about gifts given to the grandchildren. Esther lamented that she had sent money to each of her grandchildren for Christmas and didn’t get a single thank-you note. Paula proudly said, “Every one of my grandchildren came personally to thank me for their gift.” At the look on Esther ’s face, Paula simply smiled and said, “I didn’t sign the checks.” -- Michigan Grandma
