LACONIA — Two Mile Hill Road retired couples reported to police their homes had been burglarized early Monday morning while they were inside sleeping.

No one was harmed in either break-in but one of the victims said she is typically a very light sleeper and didn’t hear a thing.

French woman picked to head International Monetary Fund, a first for her gender

WASHINGTON (AP) — During her interview for the top job at the International Monetary Fund last week, Christine Lagarde noticed a striking pattern.

All the questions came from men.

“There was not one single woman,” the French Finance Minister said Tuesday on French television.

Now there is.

On Tuesday, the IMF’s 24-member board decided she should become the first woman to lead the global lending organization, which is recovering from a sex scandal involving the man she’ll replace.

When she begins a five-year term next week, Lagarde will take charge of a melting pot of international elites — one that was known for male-dominated clubbiness well before the scandal involving Dominique StraussKahn, her predecessor.

In her remarks to French television, she spoke to the cultural shift her selection represents.

NATO choppers kill gunmen who struck Kabul hotel KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — Two NATO helicopters fired rockets that killed three gunmen on the rooftop of a besieged Kabul hotel early Wednesday after Afghan police battled insurgents who attacked with suicide bombers, machine guns and rocket-propelled grenades.

The NATO attack appeared to have ended the standoff that lasted more than four hours. The number of casualties was not immediately clear. Afghan officials said there had been four suicide bombers and four gunmen, who all appeared to have been killed. Associated Press reporters on the scene saw at least five bodies removed from the hotel, but could not say whether they were the attackers or their victims.

The Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack.

Jason Waggoner, a spokesman for the U.S.-led coalition fighting in Afghanistan, said the helicopters fired early Wednesday morning on the roof where militants had taken up positions. He said they killed three gunmen and that Afghan security forces clearing the Inter-Continental hotel worked their way up to the roof and engaged the remaining insurgents.

The helicopters attacked after four massive explosions rocked the hotel.

After the gunmen were killed, the hotel lights that had been blacked out during the attack came back on. Afghan security

vehicles and ambulances were removing the dead and wounded from the area.

Some Afghan provincial governors were staying at the hotel, which is frequented by Afghan officials and foreign visitors.

Samoonyar Mohammad Zaman, a security officer for the Ministry of Interior, said there were 60 to 70 guests at the hotel at the time of the attack.

“I saw the bodies of two suicide bombers at the main entrance of the hotel,” he said.

He said some of the provincial governors who were staying at the hotel had left. But some members of their entourages have remained inside. see KABUL page 15

LOS ALAMOS, N.M. (AP) — A wildfire burning near the desert birthplace of the atomic bomb advanced on the Los Alamos laboratory and thousands of outdoor drums of plutonium-contaminated waste Tuesday as authorities stepped up efforts to protect the site and monitor the air for radiation.

Officials at the nation’s premier nuclear weapons lab gave assurances that dan-

gerous materials were safely stored and capable of withstanding flames from the 93-square-mile fire, which as of midday was as close as 50 feet from the grounds.

A small patch of land at the laboratory caught fire Monday before firefighters quickly put it out. Teams were on high alert to pounce on any new blazes and spent the day removing brush and low-hanging tree

limbs from the lab’s perimeter.

“We are throwing absolutely everything at this that we got,” Democratic Sen. Tom Udall of New Mexico said in Los Alamos.

The fire has forced the evacuation of the entire city of Los Alamos, population 11,000, cast giant plumes of smoke over the region and raised fears among nuclear see WILDFIRE page 13

Adios Los Angeles Centuries before William James coined the phrase, men have sought a “moral equivalent of war,” some human endeavor to satisfy the jingoistic lust of man, without the carnage of war. For some, the modern Olympic Games have served the purpose, with the Cold War rivalry for medals between the United States and the Soviet Union, and, lately, between America and China.

But the Olympic Games, most of which involve individual athletes competing against each other, have never aroused the passions of soccer, where teams serve as surrogates for the tribe or nation. Perhaps the most intense rivalry today is between Real Madrid and F.C. Barcelona, teams representing Spain’s largest cities, with the former a stand-in for nationalism and centralism and “Barca” a surrogate for Catalan separatism. During the Civil War, when Catalonia was a bastion of loyalist resistance, the head of F.C. Barcelona was executed by troops loyal to Gen. Franco.

Early this month, Etgar Keret of The New York Times attended a match between Beitar Jerusalem, which is associated with right-wing Israeli politics, and Bnei Sakhnin, the only Arab-Jewish team in Israel’s first division. Keret volunteered to a loud, visibly anxious Arab he met, “It’s only a game,” and got this blistering reply: “For you, maybe, because you’re a Jew. But for us, soccer is the only place we’re equal in this stinking country.”

Throughout the game, Israeli and Arab fans shouted ethnic slurs and curses in the other’s language to be sure they were understood. As Keret writes, “The bad blood between the two teams has caused many of their matches to end in rock-throwing brawls.”

“Soccer is often more deeply felt than religion,” says Franklin Foer, author of “How Soccer Explains the World.” “I don’t see tribalism ever really disappearing. ... People are almost hardwired to identify as groups. And ... group identity always runs the risk of being chauvinistic.”

Which brings us to Saturday’s match in the fabled Rose Bowl, with 93,000 in attendance, between the United States and Mexico.

According to Bill Plaschke of the Los Angeles Times, when the U.S. team took the field it was “smothered in boos. ... Its goalkeeper was bathed in a chanted obscenity. Even its national anthem was filled with the blowing of air horns and bouncing of beach balls.”

How did U.S. coach Bob Bradley respond to the reception his team received in America’s largest county? “Obviously ... the support that Mexico has on a night like this makes it a home game for them.”

“A home game” for Mexico — in Pasadena?

“It’s part of something we had to

deal with,” said the coach.

“I have never heard more consistent loud cheering for one team here,” wrote Plaschke, “from the air horns to the ‘Ole’ chant with each Mexico pass, all set to the soundtrack of low throbbing that began in the parking lot six hours before the game and continued long into the night.”

After the 4-2 win by Mexico, for the first time, the trophy award ceremony was held in the Rose Bowl.

When the losing U.S. team was introduced, the stadium rocked again with boos.

“We’re not booing the country.

We’re booing the team,” one rooter for Mexico told Plaschke. “There’s a big difference.”

But why would scores of thousands boo a defeated team after a game? Why would spectators raise a ruckus during a national anthem, except to manifest contempt for the country whose anthem it was?

U.S. goalkeeper Tim Howard credited several Mexican players with the win, but he was disgusted at how the officials conducted the ceremony awarding the Gold Cup title to Mexico. They “should be ashamed of themselves,” said Howard. “It was a disgrace that the entire postmatch ceremony was in Spanish.

You can bet your (expletive) that if we were in Mexico City, it wouldn’t be all in English.”

Indeed, were U.S. fans in a Mexican town to boo, jeer and chant obscenities at a Mexican team before, during and after a match, and blow horns during the Mexican national anthem, they would be lucky to get out of the stadium alive.

What does this event, in which Plaschke estimates 80,000 fans in the Rose Bowl could not control their contempt for the U.S. team and for the U.S. national anthem, tell us?

We have within our country 12-20 million illegal aliens, with Mexico the primary source, and millions of others who may be U.S. citizens but are not truly Americans.

As one fan told Plaschke, “I was born in Mexico, and that is where my heart will always be.”

Perhaps he should go back there, and let someone take his place who wants to become an American.

By 2050, according to Census figures, thanks to illegals crossing over and legalized mass immigration, the number of Hispanics in the U.S.A. will rise from today’s 50 million to 135-million.

Say goodbye to Los Angeles. Say goodbye to California.

LETTERS I ask Obama to tell us what he’s done to make our lives better To the editor, As most of your readers know, I Love my First Amendment and I thank every veteran and active duty person for working so hard and sacrificing so much so that I might be able to express my feelings in a letter to the editor. Once again I have listened to a topic that warrants me to dust off my poison pen and take advantage of my First Amendment right to freedom of speech. With that being said I will commence.

While watching the morning news last Friday, I again had a opportunity to listen to how Michelle Obama has taken the entire family on a trip to Africa and has had the opportunity to introduce the whole family to Nelson Mandella. Such a trip has most assuredly cost the American people thousands of dollars. In the next clip I heard the president (who in my opinion thinks he’s king) talk about how the fuel prices are so bad that he is opening the U.S. reserves in an effort to bring down the prices. THEN I heard him rave of his marvelous plan to bring home some 30,000 troops in all.

DON’T BE FOOLED BY THIS, PEOPLE This is simply a ploy to hide his shortcomings and inadequacies as a leader.

Seriously! What has he really done for us? I challenge him — NOT one of the many teachers, professors, tree squeezers or bunny huggers who write in his defense — NOT one of his staff members, after all we elected HIM not his staff — but I ask HIM to tell me (an American born, birth-certificateproducing taxpayer) exactly WHAT has he done to make our lives better here in the U.S.A. Oh, he got bin Laden, you say!

Sorry! He didn’t do that. It was the boots on the ground that FOUND Bin Laden and the boots on the ground that took him out . . . a monkey could have given the order. If the job market has gotten any better I’d like to know where as it certainly isn’t here in the Lakes Region.The attendance of the Bike Week events proved to me they aren’t much better anywhere else. Fuel prices being so high have resulted in such price hikes on ALL consumer good that people cannot afford to attend the events.

When Barrack Hussein Obama stood there and tried to sound like he

cared about the American people as he announced his decision to open the oil reserves I though I would throw up.

He doesn’t care about us! When the oil spilled out all over the Gulf, threatening the entire way of life for so many Americans, he couldn’t be with these people as he was too busy on a romantic get away with Michelle — but he would check in with them when he got back.

When Joplin was literally blown off the map he couldn’t be with these people as he was too busy tracing his roots in Ireland and having tea with the Queen of England — but he would stop by when he got back. Well people, Baby Bush may not have been the sharpest tool in the shed . . .

BUT! . . . when those planes hit the World Trade Center that fateful morning in September, how long did it take him to get to the people of NYC? As I recollect the dust hadn’t even settled on the ground before he was standing at Ground Zero.

Now we are hearing congressmen from all over the country, both Democrat and Republican, expressing their disdain for King Obama ordering U.S. air strikes in Lybia without ever presenting the notion to Congress. Our Constitution demands that he obtain 2/3 vote of Congress BEFORE engaging in an armed conflict with any nation. His conduct regarding Lybia, no matter how cruel of a dictator they have, is unconstitutional and should be charged as such! Are we, as a nation, going to stand for this behavior for our PRESIDENT? Look at the grand production made over Bill Clinton’s affair with Monica Lewinsky. Even though it was none of our business that Hillary didn’t know how to satisfy her man, we still tried to impeach him for having a lack of morals. Obama swore an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States and he blatantly ignored that oath.

At a time when the American people have had to cinch up their boot straps and tighten their belts in order to make it, when so many people need so much help to rebuild their communities, regain their way of life, eat, stay warm, and simply survive, I cannot for the life of me see the importance of the First Family being so extravagant. As the leader of this country this family should be setting the example.

HELLO, Mr President! Now is not the time for “tracing your roots”, romantic get aways, or “Personal Pilgrimsee next page

The ethical school, Part II Yesterday, I began to introduce the foundation of what I call the ethical school, so named 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. I also uses sound child development research as a basis for its curriculum.

Diversity is celebrated in this school but rather than just being a token exercise, diversity is integrated into all subjects so it is seen as natural and in perspective as it is in real life.

There are no zero tolerance policies in this school because children are given much support and many opportunities to improve their behavior, such as bullying. This school works with bullies and their families to help them change. At the higher levels there is a course on World Religions so students can see the similarities and differences of religions, how they have contributed to human development and how some people have used them for darker purposes.

Children at the higher levels have in-depth career evaluations to help them choose an occupation that matches their interests and aptitudes. Thus, identity is strongly developed at this school.

Peace studies and conflict resolution are taught so students can understand how their individual behavior impacts others, how nations have dealt with the issues of war and peace, and what it takes to develop a peaceful and just world.

Thus, communications skills are emphasized.

There are no desks in this school but tables so that children can work together cooperatively on projects.

Teachers are called “facilitators” as they are at the Williston School in Vermont, because they coach and guide children and firmly believe that children have the capacity to learn much on their own with just enough but not too much adult involvement. Constructivism is the guiding educational approach.

School and classroom rules are revised periodically with input from students, staff, faculty and administration. The principal of this school has a strong background in human relations and is rarely in his or her from preceding page ages” with the entire family. Its a time for leading by example, showing the world that America will survive.

We didn’t see Eleanor Roosevelt on a personal pilgrimage while the country her husband was leading lived on rations. Likewise we didn’t see F.D.R. travel to Germany and don a Nazi uniform as we saw Obama travel to the Middle East and exchange his thousand dollar suit we bought him for a caftan and turban.

Well, Mr. Obama,for some of us

office but is constantly about the school displaying an encouraging attitude to others as well as doing informal assessment.

Art, music, PE, media literacy, critical thinking and computer are not only separate subjects but also integrated into other school subjects. The students have strong technology and interpersonal skills and aesthetic awareness. Service learning is done by children in the last four levels. Thus, children provide services to the community while learning about their subjects in a deeper way.

This school has a student court to examine student infractions of rules and help offenders make a plan to change their behaviors. In some cases, the court metes out fair consequences to offenders. A local judge is advisor to the court.

The walls of the classrooms are covered by student art and the school hallways have international flags hanging. Next to and above the American flag outside there is an earth flag reminding everyone that every country is only one part of the planet.

The ethic of care abounds in this school as everyone shows care and respect for each other, plants, animals and even objects. There is strong school spirit and an absence of school vandalism. Children do get tested on standardized tests but this happens only at the end of the last four levels. In between the levels, formative assessment is done so that at any time, faculty and parents know how children are responding to the curriculum and what adjustments need to be made to move children along in their skills.

Evidence-based approaches are used in teaching skills and changing behaviors but teachers are also be encouraged to exercise creativity and try new ways to improve learning – ways that later can be identified as best practices.

This is not a school that is absent of problems because it deals with human beings. What is does, however, is maximize the development of children so that they can become the kinds of adults we’d like them to be – competent, caring and aesthetic.

(Leo R. Sandy is professor of counselor education at Plymouth State University and a consulting school psychologist.) red,white and blue blooded Americans, your sour effort of opening the oil reserves just in time for your big re-election push is too little too late.

But, just in case you don’t get reelected your going to bring our troops home so that they radicals can follow us here and the fighting can happen on our own soil. Hopefully there are enough of us who have had enough and we can vote you out and force you to pay for your own vacations Holly Tetreault Meredith

Beat the next oil price hik e!

Get a HARM AN before the fall rush!

1203 Union Avenue, Laconia www.FiresideLivingNH.com

To the editor, Read the Letter to the Editor “Print More Money” and felt the need to respond.

Article 1 — The Legislative Branch, Section 8 - Powers of Congress - To coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures . . .

The Constitution is a list of what the federal government is authorized to do, with everything else being denied to it by default. The absence of specific constitutional authorization for anything means that the federal government is denied/prohibited by default.

Amendments 9 & 10 are probably the clearest and most simple explanation of that point.

Paper money was referred to originally as ‘bill of credit’, which at that time Vice President Jefferson wrote that the federal government had no power to make paper money and wanted an amendment to state it.

The Legal Tender Act of 1862 was enacted to issue paper money to finance the Civil War without raising taxes.

The Legal Tender Cases were a series of U.S. Supreme Court cases, 1870, 1871 and 1884 finally declaring it constitutional to print ‘paper money’.

Paper money is physically printed by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, a part of the U.S. Treasury Department, under authority of the Federal Reserve System. In contrast to paper money, coins are physically produced by the U.S. Mint, within and under authority of the U.S. Treasury. The Federal Reserve System can authorize as much paper money as it sees fit, but the U.S. Treasury is restricted by law to a certain maximum amount of coinage in circulation.

The Federal Reserve is independent within government in that “its decisions do not have to be ratified by the president or anyone else in the executive or legislative branch of government.” However, its authority is derived from the U.S. Congress and is subject to congressional oversight.

It was created in 1913 following the

Panic of 1907 and the progressives’ desire for the federal control of the overall economy; ie: communism.

Apparently the individual missed the fact that the Federal Reserve in 03/19/2009 began injecting one trillion into the U.S. economy by buying U.S. Treasury bonds and mortgage securities. It also would buy $300-billion of long-term Treasury debt. This is all done electronically as you may well realize the physical printing of that much paper money would take to much time and cost of trucking and handling, etc. Effectively the Fed said it would accept various debt which would clear the books and allow for more ‘new’ lending.

Just printing new dollar bills and sending them out by mail or check to the general population to go out and spend as they desire just can’t and isn’t going to happen.

Real money, ie: gold and silver no longer is issued as general currency; copper coins platted or sandwiched are a very small part of economic transactions. We have only Federal Reserve Notes now, not backed by anything.

Back in 1960 a cup of coffee could be purchased with a silver 10 cent coin (included refills), today maybe $1.60 on average with a nickel plated copper dime or paper money or a debit card. That is effectively 1,500 percent inflation. Such is the fallacy of paper currency based solely on non-intrinsic value (it began when Nixon took the dollar off the gold standard). Printing more money only destroys the value and the economy.

Money is only a representation of a value which we accept in trade for something else; try lugging around some silver and copper coins to pay for your groceries, or giving a personal promissory note in trade for a car today.

Back in the early ‘70’s’ I wrote a poem title ‘Solid Coin’ you can read it at (www.gwbrooks.name) it’s on page 9 of Book 1.

The illegals will have no trouble getting what the troops should get To the editor, I want to know what our so called government is going to do with the troops that are coming home? I am afraid they will not get the health care they need or jobs. If anything with the economy being the way it is the government is going to give the troops the run around. No one has said how they will help the troops after they have been helping America for years. The government needs to provide for every one of the troops after the sacrifices they have made to fight for our freedom. They should not be thrown in the background. Give them whatever they need now and not later.

The illegals have no problem getting what the troops should get. How about the ones who are sucking the country dry that do not deserve it! Yes, some of them do. But there are a lot that are sucking us dry. They do not want to work and have it made with

all kinds of help from the government.

No one has said how they are going to help the troops when they do come home. I guess the governments mentality does not ever see the hand writing on the wall. Corruption, and sex is their first priority. How will our troops get the care and help with whatever they need to get into today’s society?

No one is talking about that. I am happy they are coming home. The thing is home to what? No jobs and health care that they will need. The disabled — what about them? This is going to be hard on them. Knowing the government, I do not expect them to do the right thing by the troops when they do get home. I hope I am WRONG. I want the best for all of them. God bless all of them. They are coming home to a changed country.

LETTERS Mr. Boutin should apply for teaching job if he thinks he can do better To the editor, Someone just has to respond to Tony Boutin’s letter on June 25.

Mr. Boutin goes on and on about how unions and teachers are causing kids to fail in school, and actually says unions cause the “collective dummying down” of teachers. Wow, I didn’t know unions had a choice over whether or not kids have the power to think, learn, and work hard for themselves. While, like always, there are gifted students, there are also many kids who either don’t try hard, or don’t have parents who push them or even care if they try hard at schoolwork. A teacher can only guide a student, the student is the one who has to want to work hard to achieve success. And like in every profession, there will be differences in ability, not everyone is identical and has identical strengths or weaknesses. Teachers deserve the pay and benefits they receive. They have to have at least a Bachelor’s degree. Teacher pay starts at the low $20K range.

Not everything will change. Lagarde will become the 11th European to lead the IMF, extending a streak that began with the organization’s creation in 1945. Among the challenges that await her, she must prod fellow Europeans to take painful steps to prevent a default by Greece.

She’ll also face pressure from developing nations that want a greater

Maybe Mr. Boutin should apply for one of the open positions if he thinks he could do a better job. Mr. Boutin also said something in regards to teacher pensions of $100,000. Well this is actually what some of the highest paid firefighters/state troopers who can “pad” their pensions in the last few years of working can receive in Wisconsin and in many other states (this should be stopped for sure). The average teacher’s pension in Wisconsin is down near $20K. I think everyone is getting sick of letters to the editor from the same people writing in, blaming everybody but the kitchen sink for their views of who is responsible for all the troubles in the world. If they had their way, all their neighbors would take a cut in pay and live in poverty it seems. Then they would just write in and complain about their community going down the tubes. Turn off the TV and Rush Limbaugh, go outside and be happy.

M. Carney Sandwich voice at the IMF. “I am deeply honored by the trust placed in me,” Lagarde said in a statement in Paris after the vote.

Should Lagarde, 55, succeed in changing the IMF’s culture, it may have less to do with her gender than with her experience in corporate America.

Before she entered politics in 2005, Lagarde led the Chicago-based international law firm Baker & McKenzie for five years. American management see next page

Interim city manager putting her mark on budget as start of fiscal year looms

BY MICHAEL KITCH THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA — An increase in property taxes of some 23 cents per $1,000 of assessed value — 16 cents on the city rate and 7 cents on the school rate — appears more and more likely as the City Council readies to put the finishing touches to the 20112012 city budget that takes effect on Friday.

By raising property taxes, the council can defray steep increases in health insurance premiums and retirement contributions for city employees without resorting to lay-offs.

In March, former city manager Eileen Cabanel, following a directive from the council, presented a $20.9-million budget that raised no more in property taxes in 2011 than raised last year. To offset a 15-percent increase in the cost of employee health insurance, amounting to $491,000, she trimmed expenditures by $339,000, which along with $150,000 withdrawn from the undesignated fund balance (rainy day fund) and balanced the budget without increasing property taxes. A reduction of $220,512 in capital outlays represented the largest share of the cuts, which was supplemented by decreased overtime budgets in the police, fire and public works departments.

However, the manager’s budget did not not anticipate incurring additional expenses or foregoing further revenues from the state. In particular, she chose not to address the prospect that the Legislature would eliminate the state share of employer retirement contributions for police officers and fire-

fighters which would add more than $400,000 to the city budget.

At the request of the council, Cabanel proposed a further round of cuts totaling $420,064 with lay-offs of personnel in the police, fire, planning and library departments accounting for $293,000. Eliminating appropriations for the Laconia Airport Authority, New Beginnings, Child and Family Services, Lakes Region Association, Lakes Region Chamber of Commerce, 4th of July fireworks, WOW Trail, Genesis Behavioral Health, Lakes Region Boys and Girls Club, Winnipesaukee Transit, and for milfoil treatment, along with adjustments to salary lines, solid waste costs and the internal service represented the balance of the cuts.

The prospect of lay-offs prompted the council to reconsider its original undertaking not to increase property taxes. This week acting city manager Pam Reynolds presented the councilors with an alternative scenario that would raise property taxes to address the increase in employer retirement contributions without significantly reducing staffing levels.

Like Cabanel, Reynolds proposed paring expenditures, but apart from eliminating $10,000 for the Laconia Airport Authority, restored funding for the other agencies by recommending alternative cuts.

She suggested adjusting salaries in the assessing and library departments, reducing extra duty and inspections at the fire department and leaving a patrolman’s position vacant at the police department, would save more than $88,000. Applying excess proceeds from an existing borrowing to the

Main Street Bridge project and trimming $20,000 from the solid waste budget would bring the total reductions to $140,343.

These cuts would reduce the city manager’s budget from $20,958,554 to $20,818,211.

Along with setting aside $405,000 for the projected cost of increased retirement contributions for police officers and firefighters, Reynolds also recommended appropriating $100,000 to establish a capital reserve fund for so-called “uncompensated absences,” paid to employees upon retirement (see accompanying story), $100,000 for the Main Street Bridge project, which would be funded by excess proceeds from an earlier borrowing, and $121,561 for unforeseen contingencies.

These appropriations would increase the budget to $21,544,772.

At the same time, Reynolds recommended raising revenues by $268,000 by applying $100,000 of funds remaining from the Davis Place Bridge project to the Main Street Bridge project. She drew another $58,000 from funds appropriated but not spent in the current fiscal year and projected $110,000 in additional revenue from higher fees for commercial haulers at the transfer station.

Applying the additional revenues against the increased budget leaves a deficit of $318,218 to be funded by raising property taxes. The council could increase the amount raised by property taxes by a little more than $500,000 without exceeding the the limits of the property tax cap. see next page

from preceding page tends to be less tolerant of sexual scandals and more likely to educate its staff on reporting harassment. At the IMF, Lagarde is likely to stress accountability and establish channels for reporting workplace grievances.

Her selection became all but assured once the Obama administration endorsed her earlier Tuesday. She had also won support from Europe, China and Russia. Mexico’s Agustin Carstens challenged her, but his candidacy never caught fire.

Lagarde said her first priority is to unify the IMF’s staff of 2,500 employees and 800 economists and restore their confidence in the organization.

She also said she wants to meet with Strauss-Kahn, if permitted by the U.S. government. Strauss-Kahn resigned last month after being charged with sexually assaulting a New York City hotel housekeeper. He has denied the charges.

“I want to have a long talk with him, because a successor should talk with their predecessor,” Lagarde said in the interview on French television channel TF1.

“I can learn things from what he has to say about the IMF and its teams.”

alluding to the fact that without raising property taxes this year, the base from which to calculate the increase permitted by the tax cap next year would remain flat, making the task of staying within the cap that much more difficult in the future.

Councilors Henry Lipman (Ward 3), who chairs the Finance Committee, and Matt Lahey (Ward 2) have both spoken in favor of raising taxes rather than reduce personnel and services.

LACONIA — A 2012 Lakes Region calendar which features scenic landscapes from across the area captured by local photographer Ian Raymond is now available at a number of locations in the city, including the Belknap Mill, Kellerhaus, All My Life Jewelers and Sunflower Natural Foods.

From New Year’s Eve fireworks over Meredith Bay through a hushed winter scene at a Sanbornton farm overlooking Lake Winnisquam, the images capture the essence of the area’s changing seasons.

Raymond says that his goal with the calendar, which cost $12, was to capture the beauty and tranquility of the Lakes Region and that he is working with former Sundial Shop owner Warren Clement to provide the calendar to other locations around Lake Winnipesaukee.

He says he plans to publish another calendar next year which will feature the entire state.

Raymond is also currently working on a book of images of the Lakes Region entitled: “The Lakes Region, Rediscovering The Beauty Of Central New Hampshire”, which he says was inspired by a series of scenic photos he took for local businesses, including the Laconia Clinic and the Women’s Health Center, to decorate their lobbies.

“I thought as long as I was doing that work, I should go one step further and gather enough material for a book. I’m still looking for a moose and bald eagle to flesh it out,’’ says Raymond.

He says that he has been fascinated with photography ever since he was five years old and watched his neighbors in Beverly, Mass., develop film and print their own pictures in a darkroom they had set up in a bathroom.

His first job when he was 14 was washing dishes at a short-order drive-in restaurant, a job that he took so he could earn money to buy a 35 mm camera, a Honeywell Pentax Spectrum F, a camera that he still has.

from preceding page at Prism and at Concord Camera North, honing his skills to the point where he was able to start freelancing for himself and join forces with legendary local photographer Chet Brickett.

“He was a great photographer and I learned a lot from him when we had a studio together from 1987 until 1992,’’ says Raymond, who says that catalog photography for places like the Scottish Lion in North Conway and the Music Stand in West Lebanon became one of the staples of his business.

But he holds a special place in his heart for landscapes, which he says is closely tied to his work as an environmental activist.

“In my travels I have come to truly appreciate the beauty that surrounds us, and how important the natural environment is to our quality of life. It is my hope that my photographs will serve not only as an

historical record of a picturesque landscape, but also as an inspiration to others to preserve what we have been blessed with,’’ says Raymond.

Raymond is a member of the Sanbornton Energy Committee and, when the Winnisquam Regional School Board balked at the idea of building a biomass plant to heat three of the district’s schools in 2008 led a petition drive which placed the issue on the school district’s warrant.

He was able to convince voters in the three-town school district, Tilton, Northfield and Sanbornton, to support the proposal and the $2.5-million plant went on line last fall.

He is currently working with the school district on a grant which will provide for an energy technology program which will be available at the district’s regional vocational and agricultural education center to students from eight Lakes Region school districts.

BURGLAR from page one lived here forever and never had anything like this happen.”

Smith said the only thing taken from her and her neighbors who live a couple of doors away was cash.

“They didn’t even take the change” she said saying the burglar went through her pocketbook but only took folding money.

What she said bothered her the most was whoever broke into her home went into her and her husband’s bedroom while they slept and took his pants into another room.

She said they went through his wallet and again took only the cash.

All of their credit cards and medical identification was strewn about but none of it was taken.

“I’m hoping whoever it was left some fingerprints on the cards,” Smith said noting the Laconia Police took some of the cards to test for fingerprints.

Smith said she went to bed at 1 a.m. Monday morning and was awake by 6 a.m.

“They had to come between those times and besides, it gets light around 5 a.m..” she said.

Smith said the rear portion of her house has a glassed-in porch and the burglar apparently entered through one of the windows on the porch. She said her and her husband recently replaced their porch screens with a fiber-glass type of material and the burglar was able to cut through it without making any noise.

She said one of her sons came to the home and replaced the broken window and took it to the Laconia Police for evidence.

“It’s unbelievable how quiet he or she was,” Smith said.

Smith said the burglar left through the porch door and even made an effort to prop it open so the latch wouldn’t make any sound when it shut.

She also said the burglar removed the night light the couple keeps in the bathroom so if they had woken it would have been dark.“They took it out and laid it on the counter,” Smith said.

She said she noticed the burglary when she went to have her coffee on the porch.

“I yelled to my husband that we had been robbed,” she said. “I told him not to touch anything and we called the police.”

One of the neighbors whose home was spared was former Laconia Police Chief and N.H. State Police Col. Harold Knowlton.

Knowlton said he thinks his home was passed over because there is a street light right outside, lighting the front of his home.

He said his bedrooms are in the rear of the house and are elevated to the point where someone, even with a boost, would have trouble reaching them.

“I’m thinking they probably don’t want to come into my house,” he said, but then noted that one of the other victims is a retired Laconia Police captain.

Knowlton said he was aware that a number of cars throughout his neighborhood and further up see next page

Reynolds said that maintaining the capital reserve fund will enable the city to defray these these expenses without shuffling funds from other items in the budget.

Knife-weilding man shot be shot to death by police WINCHESTER, N.H. (AP) — Police fatally shot a knife-wielding man while responding to a report of a family dispute in Winchester, authorities said Tuesday.

Police said a woman ran from her apartment to a neighbor Monday night, saying her husband was holding a knife to his throat and threatening to kill himself if she called police. She asked the neighbor to call 911.

Police arriving at the apartment said the man swore at them and yelled for them to go away. When they told him they had to come in to check on his welfare, the man got up from where he was sitting came toward the officers with a 10-inch jagged edged knife he’d been holding, police said. He was told to stop and drop the weapon, but didn’t.

One of the officers used a Taser on him, but he didn’t react to it, police said. Another officer then

used his Taser, but he kept advancing until he was only about four or five feet from the officers, police said. At that point, one officer shot him in the area of the upper arm and shoulder, police said. Police believe the bullet shattered on impact, traveling to other parts of his body, causing his death.

An autopsy was scheduled for Wednesday.

None of the officers was injured and one else was in the apartment at the time of the shooting, said Jeffery A. Strelzin, senior assistant attorney general.

Neither the dead man’s name nor the names of the officers were released.

However, Michele Hill of North Swanzey told WMUR-TV that the man was her son-in-law, Christopher Seksinsky. She said he and her daughter had been married for almost a year.

SIDEWALK from page one was completed last year.

“These kids are going to do great things in life.

It’s the most wonderful thing that happened in my teaching career,’’ said Wright as she presented awards to the seven of the 12 members of the socalled “core group” who accompanied her on Tuesday. Many of them have stayed with the project all through middle and high school and have now just completed their freshman year in college.

Members of the core group included: Monique Baron, Megan Belville, Heather Blandford, Chelsea Cosseboom, Nick Denver, Tiffani Hemcher, Alyssa Hemcher, Amy Meyers, Travis Ritson, Ian Shurbert, John Stacy and Megan Wernig.

Also receiving awards of excellence for their pedestrian friendly efforts, several of which involved the conversion of former railroad corridors into recreation trails, were: The Friends of the Northern Rail Trail of Merrimack County, where a trail extending from Franklin to Lebanon is nearly completed; The Mouton borough Pathway Association; The Ossipee Lake Trail; Pathways of Wolfeboro; The Winnipesaukee River Trail Association, which has completed a trail from downtown Franklin to from preceding page Mile Hill Road into Belmont had been targeted but thinks this is the first time anyone’s home, at least in his neighborhood, was entered while people were actually inside.

For Smith, while she said the knowledge that someone was in her home while she slept is “unsettling” at best, she refuses to allow the burglary to intimidate her or make her afraid.

“What I really don’t understand is why someone took that big of a chance for so little money,” Smith said.

Rte. 140 in Tilton; The WOW Trail (Winnisquam, Opechee and Winnipesaukee) in Laconia, which earlier this year dedicated phase one of the trail, extending from the public library to Lakeport Square.

Also honored for their efforts were Healthy Eating, Active Living groups in Laconia and Franklin, who promote a healthy diet and an active lifestyle as key components of a healthy lifestyle.

Donald Foudriat of Sanbornton, a long-time environmental activist who led the fight for clean water programs in the 1970s which led to the creation of the Winnipesaukee River Basin Project, a $70 million federally-funded regional sewage treatment system serving 10 Lakes Region communities, was presented with the Kim Ayers Award.

Foudriat, who served on the Sanbornton Planning Board for 30 years as us a former town moderator, “was a man well ahead of his time,’’ said Bob Snelling of Holderness, outgoing commission chairman.

Snelling said that Foudriat was recognized by the Concord Monitor in 2001 as one of the 100 most influential persons in the state during the 20th Century for his work on behalf of the environment.

Snelling, who passed the chairman’s gavel to Stan Bean of Gilmanton at the conclusion of the annual meeting, said that the Lakes Region Planning Commission plays a key role in its 30 member towns through providing the technical support and services that individual communities need but can’t afford on their own.

He said that the commission brings in five dollars in revenue from state and federal sources for every dollar contributed by local communities and that this has a tremendous positive impact on the Lakes Region.

Mike Izard, planning manager for the LRPC, was also honored at the meeting. Kim Koulet, executive director of the organization, said that Izard has been with the commission for 10 years and is a valued part of its planning team.

Alleged meth lab in Ashland village raided by police; 4 people arrested

By Gail OBer

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

ASHLAND — Local police working in conjunction the federal, state and county law enforcement raided a West Street home yesterday morning and arrested four people for making methamphetamine.

Arrested were Joshua Bixby, 33, the primary resident of the mobile home at 46 West St.; Toni Nelson, 30, of Ashland; David Moses, 32, of Ashland and Anathony Carr, 30, of Plymouth.

All four were charged with one count each of felony manufacture of methamphetamine. Bixby was also charged with one misdemeanor count of resisting arrest.

Police Chief Anthony Randall said the raid and subsequent arrests were the result of a months long investigation involving his department, the Grafton County Sheriff’s Department, the Plymouth Police Department, the N.H. State Police and agents from the U.S. Department of Drug Enforcement.

Randall said a N.H. Fire Marshal and the Ashland Fire Department were on standby because of the

highly volatile nature of the chemicals used in meth production and the acute possibility of an explosion or a fire.

The Ashland health officer condemned the building due to what Randall said was a large amount of contamination due to exposure from the toxic chemicals. He said the building has been sealed and a cleaning company called to decontaminate the area.

Of special concern to Randall is the mobile home is next door to a large senior living center and near the Ashland Lumber Co. He said any kind of explosion or fire could have been catastrophic.

In the past year, three house fires — including a multi-family home in downtown Franklin — have been gutted by fires started as a result of methamphetamine production.

Randall said anyone who sees any suspicious activity or notices any suspicious packages should notify their local police departments immediately.

He said the investigation into yesterday’s raid is active and ongoing and more charges and/or arrests could be forthcoming.

Blue-green algae warning issued for west shore of Bear Island CONCORD — An elevated cyanobacteria cell concentration has been measured along the west shoreline of Bear Island on Lake Winnipesaukee in Meredith. Samples revealed that the state standard of 50-percent or greater of the total cells from the bloom were identified as cyanobacteria. As a result, the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services (DES) has issued a cyanobacteria lake warning for those who recreate around Bear Island.

The current algae bloom is variable with some shoreline areas free of elevated cell conditions while some other areas have blue-green clouds in the water. Recent sightings report blue-green clouds within coves on the west side of Bear Island.

This warning is not based on a toxin evaluation and is intended as a precautionary measure for short-term exposure. DES advises lake users to avoid contact with the water in areas experiencing elevated cyanobacteria cell conditions typically where lake water has a blue-green surface scum, clouds or flecks. DES also advises pet owners to keep their pets out of any waters that have these conditions.

DES routinely monitors public beaches and public waters of the state for cyanobacteria. Once a cyanobacteria lake warning has been issued, DES returns to affected waterbodies on a weekly basis until the cyanobacteria standards are again met. Cyano-

bacteria are natural components of water bodies worldwide, but blooms and surface scums may form when excess phosphorus is available to the water.

Some cyanobacteria produce toxins that are stored within the cells but released upon cell death. Toxins can cause both acute and chronic health effects that range in severity. Acute health effects include irritation of skin and mucous membranes, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Chronic effects include liver and central nervous system damage.

The June 28 warning will remain in effect until additional samples reveal cyanobacteria levels have diminished.

WILDFIRE from page 2 watchdogs that it will reach as many as 30,000 55-gallon drums of plutonium-contaminated waste.

“The concern is that these drums will get so hot that they’ll burst. That would put this toxic material into the plume. It’s a concern for everybody,” said Joni Arends, executive director of the Concerned Citizens for Nuclear Safety, an anti-nuclear group.

Arends’ organiziation also worried that the fire could stir up nuclear-contaminated soil on lab property where experiments were conducted years ago. see next page

Lee limits Red Sox to 2 hits, beats Beckett PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Cliff Lee has a simple explanation for his brilliant pitching.

“I’m making pitches, staying out of the zone, using my breaking ball and getting lucky,” Lee said, downplaying his recent success.

Lee tossed a two-hitter for his third consecutive shutout and the Philadelphia Phillies beat Josh Beckett and the Boston Red Sox 5-0 Tuesday night.

In a series hailed as a potential World Series preview, Lee (9-5) and the Phillies dominated the opener.

Domonic Brown and Shane Victorino each hit a two-run homer for Philadelphia, which improved its major league-leading record to 50-30.

Lee didn’t allow a hit until Marco Scutaro led off the sixth with a line-drive single to left-center. He ran his career-best scoreless streak to 32 innings with his ninth career shutout and fourth this year.

“It’s been a good run, no doubt about it,” Lee said.

“I’ve had a few in my career, but I don’t look back and compare them. I want to throw a shutout every time out there. I never want to give up a run.”

Beckett (6-3) gave up five runs and five hits in six innings, his worst outing of the season. Beckett entered with a major league-best 1.86 ERA and left at 2.20. He hadn’t pitched because of the flu since

tossing a one-hitter against Tampa Bay on June 15.

Darnell McDonald led off the eighth with a double to left, putting Lee’s shutout bid in jeopardy. But shortstop Jimmy Rollins made an outstanding play on Jason Varitek’s hard one-hopper up the middle for the first out. Lee then fanned Mike Cameron looking at a slow curve and retired Scutaro on a grounder to third.

Lee finished with five strikeouts and two walks.

He has been sensational since a slow start. The lefty was 4-5 with a 3.94 ERA through May. Since then, he’s 5-0 with a 0.21 ERA in five starts this month.

Lee threw a two-hitter against Florida on June 16 and blanked St. Louis on six hits June 22. He needed 112 pitches to get through this one.

“He’s one of the best pitchers in the game, and he’s riding a hot streak. That is a bad combination for any team to face,” Red Sox manager Terry Francona said. “I haven’t seen all of his starts, but from what I have seen, he’s been quite impressive. He’s working counts, and he’s throwing strikes when he has to.

He’s really got it going right now.”

The most popular player on the Phillies, Lee received several ovations from the 180th straight sellout, including postseason play, at Citizens Bank Park.

U.S. women open World Cup play with 2-0 win over North Korea DRESDEN, Germany (AP) — Once, twice, three times and then a fourth, Lauren Cheney launched a shot with her foot only to watch it go right into the hands of the North Korean goalkeeper.

Finally, she used her head. And just like that, the Americans looked more like a team that could contend for a third Women’s World Cup title than the one that took a self-described “bumpy” road to Germany.

“I wasn’t frustrated,” said Cheney, whose goal in the 54th minute sparked a 2-0 win over North Korea on Tuesday. “I knew if I kept going, I’d get one. I’m pretty happy I did.”

So did her teammates. After hearing about their inconsistency and shortcomings for months, the win in their tournament opener gave the Americans a needed dose of confidence. When the final whistle sounded, the U.S. reserves ran onto the field to celfrom preceding page Burrowing animals have brought that contamination to the surface, she said.

Lab officials said there was very little risk of the fire reaching the drums of low-level nuclear waste, since the flames would have to jump through canyons first.

Officials also stood ready to coat the drums with fireresistant foam if the blaze got too close.

Lab spokeswoman Lisa Rosendorf said the drums contain Cold War-era waste that the lab sends away in

ebrate while the North Koreans stood just beyond midfield, watching.

It was the fourth straight time the teams had met in group play at the World Cup, and the Americans have won all games but one.

North Korean coach Kim Kwang Min blamed his team’s failings in the second half on a June 8 lightning strike during training in Pyongyang that sent “more than five” players to the hospital. Goalkeeper Hong Myong Hui, four defenders and some of the midfielders were the players most affected, Kim said.

“The physicians actually said the players were not capable of playing in the tournament,” Kim said through an interpreter. “They’re not physically ready for this match, but they had a strong will.”

The Americans now face Colombia, which lost 1-0 to Sweden, on Saturday in Sinsheim. weekly shipments for storage. She said the drums were on a paved area with few trees nearby. As of midday Tuesday, the flames were about two miles from the material.

“These drums are designed to a safety standard that would withstand a wildland fire worse than this one,” Rosendorf said.

Los Alamos employs about 15,000 people, covers more than 36 square miles, includes about 2,000 buildings at nearly four dozen sites and plays a vital role in the nation’s nuclear program.

Lynch agrees to extending reach of death penalty to include home invasion murders CONCORD (AP) — Gov. John Lynch signed a bill Tuesday expanding the state’s death penalty to cover burglaries in response to a machete and knife attack that killed a New Hampshire woman and maimed her daughter during a home invasion.

“I believe strongly that there are some crimes so heinous that the death penalty is warranted. As a state, we’ve used our death penalty statute judiciously and cautiously, as is appropriate. But there are some horrific crimes that are not currently covered under our capital murder statute,” Lynch said in a statement.

House Speaker William O’Brien sponsored the bill and named it after Kimberly Cates of Mont Vernon, which is O’Brien’s hometown. Cates was hacked to death in her bed and her 11-year-old daughter was maimed in the Oct. 4, 2009, home invasion.

Cates’ husband, David, was present in Lynch’s office at Tuesday’s private bill signing. Cates testified in support of the bill though he said he wasn’t seeking vengeance since the law change

wouldn’t apply in his wife’s case.

The new law takes effect Friday and allows capital punishment for killings committed during burglaries of occupied buildings.

“It is unfortunate that it took a tragedy like the Kimberly Cates murder to bring this common sense, measured and responsible expansion of the New Hampshire death penalty statute,” O’Brien said in a statement. “Our homes are our sanctuary and this was a necessary enhancement of protection for those in their homes who have the right to be safe and secure. This legislation will achieve justice for victims and allow for deterrence to those who would enter the homes of others to murder them.”

Steven Spader was convicted of Cates’ murder last year and sentenced to life without parole. Co-defendant Christopher Gribble admitted to taking part in the attacks but tried unsuccessfully to convince the jury he was insane at the time. He was sentenced to life without parole. Three others were sentenced for lesser crimes.

Sentencing of Willis for raping 15-year-old postponed CONCORD (AP) — Sentencing is being postponed for a New Hampshire man convicted of raping and impregnating his children’s 15-year-old baby sitter more than a decade ago.

The case of 52-year-old Ernest Willis of Gilford drew national attention because the fundamentalist Baptist church he and the girl attended made her apologize to the congregation. The pastor then helped ship the girl to live with a Colorado couple she didn’t know and put her baby up for adoption. Concord police did not locate her until last year.

Willis faces up to 54 years in prison

when sentenced in July. No date has been set.

A jury convicted Willis May 27 of forcible rape and statutory rape after deliberating a full day.

His sentencing had been scheduled for Thursday, but it was postponed to give probation officers more time to prepare a presentence report.

Before trial, Willis pleaded guilty to a separate count of statutory rape but denied he forcibly raped Tina Anderson twice in 1997. She said it happened once while he was giving her driving lessons and again at her home weeks later.

Grafton man charged with murdering his 2 roommates LEBANON, N.H. (AP) — A 24-yearold man has been charged with second-degree murder in the deaths of his two roommates in Grafton, N.H. Robert Lacombe, Jr., was being held without bail on Tuesday during his arraignment in the apparent shooting deaths of 24-year-old William Hatch and 23-year-old Crystal Farnham, whose bodies were discovered in the home on Saturday.

LaCombe was arrested several hours later at a hotel in Randolph, Mass.

He was returned to New Hampshire after waiving extradition during a fugitive hearing in Massachusetts on Monday.

Authorities say LaCombe had been living at the Grafton home for a few months. Prosecutors haven’t commented on a motive.

OBITUARY

Constance M. Stevenson, 83

ALTON — Constance M. Stevenson, 83, of Alton, New Hampshire went peacefully into the arms of her Lord Jesus on June 24, 2011 at her home surrounded by family and friends. Connie was the daughter of Elizabeth (Allen) Tyler of East Concord, New Hampshire and spent most of her childhood with her maternal grandparents, Harvey and Violet Allen, of Mexico, Maine. She had been declining in health for a long period of time. Connie is predeceased by her husband, Robert B. Stevenson, an infant son, her mother, her stepfather, Roger Tyler, of East Concord, and her sister, Barbara Bachelder, of Pembroke. Mrs. Stevenson was married on July 26, 1946 at the East Congregational Church in East Concord. She is survived by her brother, William Tyler, of Greencove Springs, FL, her sons, Robert P. Stevenson of Tilton, New Hampshire and Craig S. Stevenson of Alton, and her grandsons, Ryan Stevenson, Christopher Stevenson and Richard Stevenson.

Connie was born on May 8, 1928 in Rumford, Maine, and graduated from Mexico High School in 1946 where she was a clarinetist in the Concert Band.

In 1977, she graduated from New Hampshire Technical Institute with a degree in counseling. Early in her career, she was employed by WKXL in Concord, New Hampshire where she performed as salesperson and host of the weekly “Connie Stevenson Show”, only the second woman in New Hampshire to have a live talk show format. She was hostess for International House of Pancakes in Manchester, New Hampshire

for several years and then went on to be a leader in Alcoholics Anonymous, instrumental in establishing many new units throughout New Hampshire. She was a self-taught graphic artist known for her primitive painting, tole work, and lampshade design. She was the owner/artist of The Village Lamp & Shade Shop in Alton and distributed works throughout Nova Scotia, Canada, Maine, and New Hampshire. Connie and her husband, Bob, established “Stevenson’s Dairy Bar” in Alton which served the area for several years. After receiving her degree in counseling, Mrs. Stevenson went on to work for NH State Hospital, Burbank House, Amethyst as alcohol abuse counselor, Manchester Mental Health and Carroll County Impaired Driver Intervention Program until her retirement in 1987. Since that time, Connie divided her time between her summer home in Canada and Alton where she continued to paint.

Services to be announced at a later date Burial will be at Pine Grove Cemetery, Concord NH Condolences to Craig Stevenson, PO Box 907, Alton NH 03809 In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the American Lung Association of N.H., 1800 Elm Street, Manchester, NH 03104.

KABUL from page 2 “There have been some people who have escaped, but most of the guests are still inside,” he said.

Zaman said the insurgents were armed with machine guns, anti-aircraft weapons, rocket-propelled grenades and hand grenades. The were using grenade launchers, he said.

Afghan national security forces moved inside the blacked out hotel slowly as to not frighten or hurt any guests, he said.

Interior Ministry spokesman Sediq Sediqqi said all the suicide bombers either blew themselves up or were killed while at least two gunmen continued to fire from the roof for a while.

“There are foreign and Afghan guests staying at the hotel,” Sediqqi said before the NATO helicopters attacked. “We have reports that they are safe in their rooms, but still there is shooting.”

Associated Press reporters at the scene said the two sides fought with machine guns and rocketpropelled grenades. They saw tracer rounds go up over the darkened hotel and saw shooting from the roof of the five-story building in the rare, nighttime attack in the Afghan capital.

Police ordered bystanders to lie on the ground for safety.

Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid claimed responsibility for the attack in a telephone call to the AP. Mujahid later issued a statement claiming that Taliban attackers killed guards at a gate and entered the hotel. “One of our fighters called on a mobile phone and said: ‘We have gotten onto all the hotel floors and the attack is going according to the plan. We have killed and wounded 50 foreign and local enemies. We are in the corridors of the hotel now taking guests out of their rooms — mostly foreigners. We broke down the doors and took them out one by one.’”

Meredith Bay fireworks display will start at 9:30 p.m. on Independence Day MEREDITH — The Greater Meredith Program (GMP) will once again host the Town’s 4th of July fireworks scheduled to go off from the Bay at 9:30 p.m. on Monday, July 4.

GMP has partnered with Nassau Broadcasting to bring an enhanced fireworks display from Atlas Pyro Vision Productions to residents and visitors this year. In case of inclement weather, the rain date is Tuesday, July 5.

Fireworks are a holiday tradition for many people and as exciting as they are to watch, they can also be dangerous. The explosive chemicals can injure people and damage property. With safety as a top priotiry, the Fire Marshall for the State of New Hampshire requires that during the loading, setup, and display, a minimum of 300 feet be isolated around the area with no vehicles or spectators permitted.

To comply with safety regulations, the Boat Ramp and Town Docks will be closed at 3 p.m. on Monday.

In addition, Rt. 3 from Lake Street to Rt. 25 will be closed at 8 p.m. and re-opened at approximately 10:30 p.m. Traffic will be diverted from Rt. 3 onto Lake Street and then to Main Street to avoid the closed section of Rt. 3.

Pooch Café LOLA

By Holiday Mathis and love you that it would be a shame for you to focus only on the one or two who don’t. Give your love where it’s sure to multiply and spread.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

No matter who you are or what your position, you will never be immune to rejection. If you are human, it is inevitable. But the more you accept yourself the less you worry about the occasional slights of the world.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

There is an illusion that is in need of demolition, and it’s best destroyed before Friday. Its absence will free you to embrace your life the way it is and yourself the way you are.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You have emotional flexibility now and will play with many different modalities and tones until you come up with a winning feeling. Your attitude is subject to change, and when it does, so will your outcome.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Just as tackling physical hurdles will help you gain strength, agility and confidence, overcoming mental obstacles will do the same for your way of thinking. So be thankful for the problems you encounter -- they make you better.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 29). You are a bold protector of loved ones and all you stand for. Professional needs and wants are satisfied in July. There will be fun in your private life when old friendships ignite anew. In September, you step up your self-care with exercise and health improvements. October is your chance to seal a deal. Capricorn and Sagittarius people are your supportive fans. Your lucky numbers are: 30, 1, 24, 38 and 26.

by Darby Conley

ARIES (March 21-April 19). As you interact with people, you put your attention on their most positive characteristics, and they feel safe in the approving and supportive energy coming from you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You may notice that you’re thinking of a certain someone more often and in a different way. Also, this person has a vivifying effect on your mood.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Someone believes you are made in the image of greatness, and this person can only see you as magnificent. You will work hard to live up to this person’s estimation of you.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). One of the most important ways you can let people know you care is also the easiest way: Tell them. You don’t have to be a poet, just speak simply from the heart.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your sign mate Mick Jagger famously sang that time was on his side. It’s on yours, too.

You befriend time as you use the passing moments to your highest advantage and hold firm to the belief that the best is yet to come.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Give credit where it’s due, especially if it’s due to you. This is no time to underplay your value as a human being. Celebrate yourself for what you do well, and the rest will improve.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You may have competitive knee jerk reactions or aggressive impulses -- certain people bring out the fierce spirit in you. Yet, you also have the self-control to soften and guide your feelings appropriately.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There are so many people who appreciate

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Wednesday, June 29, 2011— Page 19

––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Wednesday, June 29, the 180th day of 2011. There are 185 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On June 29, 1767, Britain approved the Townshend Revenue Act, which imposed import duties on glass, paint, oil, lead, paper and tea shipped to the American colonies.

(Colonists bitterly protested, prompting Parliament in 1770 to repeal the duties — except for tea.)

On this date: In 1861, William James Mayo, one of the founders of the Mayo Clinic, was born in Le Sueur, Minn. English poet Elizabeth Barrett Browning, 55, died in Florence, Italy.

In 1911, the Maryknoll Fathers and Brothers had its beginnings as Pope Pius X gave his blessing for the formation of The Catholic Foreign Mission Society of America.

In 1941, Polish statesman, pianist and composer Ignacy Jan Paderewski (pahdehr-EHF’-skee) died in New York at age 80.

In 1954, the Atomic Energy Commission voted against reinstating Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer’s access to classified information.

In 1966, the United States bombed fuel storage facilities near the North Vietnamese cities of Hanoi and Haiphong (HY’-fahng).

In 1967, Jerusalem was re-unified as Israel removed barricades separating the Old City from the Israeli sector.

In 1970, the United States ended a twomonth military offensive into Cambodia.

In 1972, the Supreme Court, in Furman v. Georgia, struck down a trio of death sentences, saying they constituted cruel and unusual punishment.

In 1988, the Supreme Court upheld the independent counsel law.

In 2003, actress Katharine Hepburn died in Old Saybrook, Conn., at age 96.

One year ago: China and Taiwan signed a tariff-slashing trade pact that boosted economic ties and further eased political tensions six decades after the rivals split amid civil war. Talk show host Larry King announced he would step down from his CNN show in the autumn after 25 years on the air.

Today’s Birthdays: Movie producer Robert Evans is 81. Songwriter L. Russell Brown is 71. Actor Gary Busey is 67. Comedian Richard Lewis is 64. Actor-turned-politican-turned-radio personality Fred Grandy is 63. Rock musician Ian Paice is 63. Singer Don Dokken is 58. Rock singer Colin Hay is 58. Actress Maria Conchita Alonso is 54.

Actress Sharon Lawrence is 50. Actress Amanda Donohoe is 49. Actress Kathleen Wilhoite is 47. Producer-writer Matthew Weiner is 46. Musician Dale Baker is 45.

Actress Melora Hardin is 44. Rap DJ Shadow is 39. Country musician Todd Sansom is 33.

Singer Nicole Scherzinger is 33.

celebration at 6 p.m. on Sunday, July 3.

Most New Horizon Band members are mature adults, who have either never played an instrument or have begun to play again after years of being away from the art. They all have one thing in common — they enjoy making music together. The band rehearses year-round at the Music Clinic in Belmont and always welcomes new members.

The concert at Rotary Park is underwritten by The Belknap Mill. All are invited to bring a lawn chair and enjoy a fine evening’s entertainment.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Dear Annie: In no uncertain terms, my son and his second wife have told me that it is wrong to be in contact with my son’s ex-wife. They’ve said my ex-daughter-in-law should not be invited to my home or to family functions, and that including her shows a total lack of support for my son.

I am not close to my ex-daughter-in-law, although I hold no animosity toward her. But, Annie, I’ve known her for 30 years, and she is the mother of my grandchildren. Shutting her out does not seem reasonable, nor is it a good example for my grandchildren. I see my son and his current wife very rarely.

They do not invite me to their home. They do not bother with my other children and have a limited interest in family gatherings. I am not part of their lives. They say it’s because I still see the ex, but even when I don’t include her, they still don’t come around. My son refuses to talk about any of this, and his wife seems only too happy to attack me. What is the best way to handle this situation? -- Danged if I Do and Danged if I Don’t Dear Danged: Of course it is wrong for your son and his wife to tell you who you can and cannot contact, but that won’t change their response. We don’t recommend inviting your ex-daughter-in-law to any function where your son or his wife might be present. That is simply asking for trouble and will be interpreted as a deliberate slap in the face. We suggest less blatant ways to stay in touch with your ex-daughterin-law, such as e-mail and phone calls. Visits should be saved for those occasions involving the grandchildren where your presence together would be expected.

Dear Annie: That letter from “Dutiful Daughter” described my mother perfectly. She said her mother, now in her late 80s, was becoming increasingly difficult and rude. You suggested an evaluation to check for dementia.

We did that with our mother, and the doctor says she is

mentally fine. She has just become rude. And apparently, because of her advanced age, she thinks she has earned the right to be as nasty as she likes. My siblings and I dread taking her anywhere. So now that we know it’s not dementia, how do we handle her? -- Not Dutiful for Much Longer Dear Not Dutiful: With honesty, boundaries, consistency and some behavior modification. When Mom is rude, point it out to her, nicely, and say that you don’t like to be around her when she cannot treat you decently. If she continues, get up and leave. There is no reason to subject yourself to constant nastiness. Although it will probably take a little while, either she will learn to behave more politely, or you will see her less often. Win-win.

Dear Annie: I want to respond to “Heartbroken in Canada,” whose children ignored her on Mother’s Day. That was my eighth Mother’s Day after the sudden, tragic death of my only child at age 14. Every breath I take is a struggle without her.

How does one celebrate Mother’s Day after the death of a child? Gratitude. I am grateful for having the opportunity to be a mom, even for only 14 years. I am grateful the last words I said to her were “I love you.” I am grateful she did not suffer. I am grateful to “The Compassionate Friends,” an organization that supports bereaved family members. I am grateful when a friend remembers to say “happy Mother’s Day” instead of nothing.

If your children are alive and breathing, celebrate. Until you have suffered a mother’s worst nightmare, be grateful.

You may someday become a grandmother. I lost that gift when my only child died. -- An Angel’s Mom Dear Mom: Our deepest condolences on the loss of your daughter. Thank you for reminding our readers to appreciate the blessings they have.
