Democrats bring daughter of JFK to Meredith to campaign for Obama BY GAIL OBER

MEREDITH — Telling the standing room only crowd that it was “extra special” for her to be in the state where her father kicked off his campaign for president about 50 years ago, Carolyn Kennedy said yesterday that she sees many similarities between President Barack Obama and

An article published in our Wednesday, June 27 edition, reporting on a meeting of the Belknap County Convention, incorrectly attributed a comment about law enforcement’s role in the rising jail population to Rep. Harry Accornero. In fact, the comments were made by Rep. Bob Greemore (R-Meredith), who yesterday explained that he was reacting to another delegate’s remark that law enforcement officers have no choice but to detain those who have committed crimes. “Police don’t have to arrest people, it’s their option,” said Greemore, lamenting the lack of alternatives, such as substance abuse or mental health treatment programs.

Mayor says wildfire has destroyed 346 Colo. Springs homes
C O L O R A D O SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) — A raging Colorado wildfire that forced tens of thousands to flee destroyed an estimated 346 homes this week, making it the most destructive fire in the state’s history, officials said Thursday. From above, the destruction becomes painfully clear: Rows and rows of houses were reduced to smoldering ashes even as some homes just feet away survived largely intact. On one street, all but three houses had burned to their foundations, said Ryan Schneider, whose home is still standing in a neighborhood where 51 others were destroyed. “I was real happy at first. My wife was happy,” he said. “The emotion of seeing the other homes, though, was instant sadness.” The aerial photos showing the scope of one of the worst fires to hit the American West see WILDFIRE page 11

Roberts joins 4 liberals in upholding most of Obamacare based on government’s right to tax WASHINGTON (AP) — Obamacare lives. America’s historic health care overhaul, derided by Republicans as intrusive, costly “Obamacare,” narrowly survived an election-year battle at the Supreme Court Thursday with the improbable help of conservative Chief Justice John Roberts. The 5-4 ruling now makes it certain that major health care changes will move ahead, touching virtually every American’s life. And Democrats, who have learned to accept if not love the GOP label for the law, heartily praised the decision. But the ruling also gave Republicans unexpected ammunition to energize supporters for the fall campaign against President Barack Obama, the bill’s champion — and for next year’s vigorous efforts to repeal the law as a new federal tax
Roberts’ vote, along with those of the court’s four liberal justices, preserved the largest expansion of the nation’s social safety net in more than 45 years, including the hotly debated core requirement that nearly everyone have health insurance or pay a penalty. The aim is to extend coverage to more than 30 million people who now are uninsured The decision meant the huge overhaul, still taking effect, could proceed and pick up momentum over the next several years, with an impact on the way that countless Americans receive and pay for their personal medical care. The ruling handed Obama a campaignseason victory in rejecting arguments that Congress went too far in approving the plan. However, Republicans quickly indicated they would try to use the decision
against him. At the White House, Obama declared, “Whatever the politics, today’s decision was a victory for people all over this country.” Blocks away, GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney renewed his criticism of the overhaul, calling it “bad law” and promising to work to repeal it if elected in November. Demonstrators for and against the law crowded the grounds outside the Supreme Court Building on Capitol Hill as Roberts, sitting at the center of the nine black-robed justices inside, announced the decision to a packed courtroom. Breaking with the other conservative justices, Roberts wrote the judgment that allows the law to go forward. He explained at length the court’s view of the insurance see ROBERTS page 8
House votes to hold attorney general in contempt over ‘Fast & Furious’ WASHINGTON (AP) — Attorney General Eric Holder on Thursday became the first Cabinet member held in contempt of Congress, a rebuke pushed by Republicans seeking to unearth the facts behind a bungled gun-tracking operation and dismissed by most Democrats as a political stunt. The vote was 255-67, with more than 100 Democrats boycotting. African-American lawmakers led the
walkout as members filed up the aisle and out of the chamber to protest the action against Holder, who is the nation’s first black attorney general. Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi of California joined the boycott, saying Republicans had gone “over the edge” in their partisanship. Seventeen Democrats voted with Republicans in favor of the contempt vote, while two Republicans — Reps. Scott Rigell of

Eurozone leaders scramble as Italy & Spain demand lower borrowing costs
BRUSSELS (AP) — The leaders of the 17 countries that use the euro scrambled early Friday to consider emergency measures to lower the borrowing costs of Italy and Spain. The success of a summit meant to reassure markets hung in the balance. A modest agreement by the 27 leaders of the European Union to spend €120 billion ($149 billion) to stimulate economic growth was thrown into flux after Italy and Spain said they would block it unless it was paired with immediate action to help lower the interest rates on their government bonds. “We see it as a package,” said an Italian official, though only on condition of anonymity because the closed-door talks are ongoing. In a further setback to European leaders’ hopes of projecting progress, discussions on longer-term fixes to the continent’s financial crisis were postponed until October, French President Francois Hollande said. Some proposals on the table include: central-
ized banking regulation, Europe-wide deposit insurance and handing the EU more authority over individual countries’ taxing and spending plans. Experts say the $149 billion in stimulus spending the leaders agreed to is too small to have much of an impact in an economic region as large as Europe. “They underperformed my low expectations,” said Megan Greene, Director of European economies at Roubini Global Economics. She said the stimulus package “won’t create growth.” More important to many observers is finding immediate ways to address the high borrowing costs currently faced by Italy and Spain. Economists say Spain can only pay the current high rates — at 7 percent for 10-year money— for a few more months. After that, it is likely to ask for a eurozone bailout to finance its government debts. That rescue money could range in the hundreds of billions of euros (dollars). To lower those borrowing rates, European leaders
need to convince investors that Spain and Italy will be able to keep repaying their debts. Sharp divisions remain over such measures to boost market confidence, however. They range from allowing the eurozone bailout fund to buy the bonds of the governments of Italy and Spain to bolder, longer-term moves like pooling government debt. The leaders of Italy, France and Spain have been pressing Germany to agree to some form of these confidence-boosting measures. The EU’s top officials and the International Monetary Fund have argued the same. German Chancellor Angela Merkel has so far opposed such measures. She says eurobonds should be part of Europe’s effort to integrate, but can only happen once national governments have agreed to give a central authority the power to change their budget policies. That could see EUROPE page 10
N.H. youth baseball & hockey coach charged with sex assaults of boys
CONCORD (AP) — A longtime youth baseball and hockey coach from New Hampshire has been charged with multiple counts of sexual assault against boys. Concord police said 58-year-old Robert Joubert was charged Thursday following an investigation that began after police in York, Maine, received a complaint in March alleging he had engaged in sexual contact with minors. Detectives say Joubert was involved in multiple sexual assaults in Concord from 1995 and 2004. Police say all the victims were juvenile males. Officials say Joubert has been involved in coaching youth baseball and hockey over the past 15 years. It was not immediately known if Joubert had a lawyer.
from preceding page an “A’’ grade from the organization. Holder said afterward that the vote was merely a politically motivated act in an election year “Today’s vote may make for good political theater in the minds of some, but it is — at base — both a crass effort and a grave disservice to the American people. They expect — and they deserve — far better,” Holder said in New Orleans. The attorney general said the House vote would result in an unnecessary court fight. Republicans “were not interested in bringing an end to this dispute or even obtaining the information they say they wanted,” he said. “Ultimately, their goal was the vote that — with the help of special interests — they now have engineered.” Republicans cited Holder’s refusal to hand over — without any preconditions — documents that could explain why the Obama administration initially denied that a risky “gun-walking” investigative tactic was used in Operation Fast and Furious. The operation identified more than 2,000 illicitly purchased weapons. Some 1,400 of them have yet to be recovered in the failed strategy to track the weapons. The vote on a criminal contempt resolution sent the matter to the U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia, who is under Holder. In previous contempt cases, federal prosecutors in the nation’s capital have refused to act on congressional contempt citations against members of their own administration. A separate vote on civil contempt passed 25895, with 21 Democrats supporting it. It will allow the House to hire its own attorney to bring a civil lawsuit in an effort to force Holder to turn over the documents. In past cases, courts have been reluctant to settle disputes between the executive and legislative branches of government.

Supreme politics You have to hand it to the chief justice. He saved the health care bill and with it, perhaps, the Supreme Court’s reputation as something other than the third branch of a government that is hopelessly divided along party lines. And he did it in a way that sticks it to the administration by calling it a tax and allowing Mitt Romney (when he’s not defending the similar “tax” he passed in Massachusetts) to attack President Obama as another tax-and-spend liberal. Had the case gone the other way, the court would’ve found itself squarely in the middle of a presidential campaign because of a decision that would’ve been deemed pure partisan politics. The idea of striking down what many view (for better or worse) as the signal accomplishment of the president in the middle of a campaign, with the five Republican appointees outvoting the four Democratic appointees, brings back memories of Bush v. Gore, a low point for the legitimacy of the Supreme Court. Chief Justice John Roberts’ vote might’ve been more political than those cast by the other eight, but if it was (as I suspect), it was also better politics for the court. Thanks to the chief justice, the Supreme Court’s role in the health care debate is over. The justices go off for their summer break having left health care reform exactly where it should be: in the hands of voters, legislators and especially this administration, as a political issue and not a constitutional one. Now it’s up to Obama to do his own politics as well as the chief justice has. Listening to the president’s speech reacting to the decision, what struck me most is how badly this administration has done on their part of the politics of health care. It was one of the first times I’ve heard the president carefully, succinctly and convincingly explain everything that is good about the bill. “Obamacare” has taken on a life of its own as a symbol of big government and bureaucracy that is almost totally divorced from the much-needed and popular reforms that are at the heart of the bill. The president and his team did an amazing job in getting the act through Congress after decades of Democrats trying and failing. The solicitor general’s office managed to succeed, with a huge assist from the
chief justice, in saving the act. Now it’s up to the president to sell it. It’s an old joke in politics that when your numbers are really bad, you don’t tell the candidate that no one likes him. You tell him he has a communications problem. When it comes to health care, Obama, the great communicator, has a major communications problem. For real. Polls show that Americans in fact want health care reform. Plenty of us know what it’s like to try to buy insurance for an individual, especially for those who have had some illness along the way. Some years ago, I tried to buy insurance for my nanny/housekeeper/dear friend. She got rejected by almost everyone because she was 50 years old and had gastritis. Gastritis? Thankfully, Kaiser said yes, and years later, when she did face serious illness, she got great care. I don’t know how many times she has said to me that having insurance saved her life. I know too many stories of terrible things happening to people who waited weeks for tests at county hospitals to have any doubt that she is right. One thing the people attacking the mandate never mention is that you can’t have coverage for pre-existing conditions if you don’t have a mandate. Another thing they don’t mention is that many of our kids would be uninsured if they couldn’t stay on their parents’ policies. They also stay away from the prescription benefits for seniors, or well-baby care, or required coverage of mammograms. No, they just go on about government pushing its way into our lives and then, as the applause and cheering mount, pledge to repeal Obamacare. It’s not their job to point out what’s right about the bill, how it will help almost everybody in significant ways. That’s the president’s job. You know he would have done it if the court had gone the other way. He was ready to tell us about everything we were losing. Now, he just needs to spend that energy and vigor telling us about everything we have — and will gain.

LETTERS Community Aspirations petition published in today’s paper To the editor, The Community Aspirations petition has been circulating for the past six months. It is a covenant signed by many citizens of Laconia and the Lakes Region who believe that how we engage each other in dialogue on political issues is important for sustaining civil democratic society. Many in Laconia and the Lakes Region have responded to the opportunity to sign the petition. It has been available for thoughtful consideration as an invitation for agreement on how we will work together “in community”. Those of us who brought forth the Community Aspirations petition for consideration believe that living together democratically works best when based in a value system of civility and caring for others as part of community life. Such values are the glue that blossoms into a tolerant, viable, enlightened, vigorous, stimulating, passionate social system where differences are acknowledged and appreciated. Our goal is to foster ongoing equitable community-wide communication and dialogue in the public arena. The petition grew out of the work of a group of individuals concerned about the rising intolerance and incivility of communication that currently marks our national landscape. We represented various public organizations: Carol
Pierce, Laconia Human Relations Committee; Alan Robichaud, Lakes Region United Way; Bob Champlin, Laconia School District; Jim McCollum, Laconia Middle School; Scott Kalicki, Lakes Region Community College; Chief Chris Adams, Laconia Police Department; Leonard Campbell, NH Catholic Charities; Clare Persson, Laconia Middle School PTO; and David Stamps and Debby Frawley Drake, community organizers . We are excited and pleased to present to the community elsewhere in today’s newspaper (page 10) those who have agreed to publicly list their name, but also on behalf of the many who agreed with the principles of the petition, but choose to exercise their right of privacy for not being listed. We have worked hard to reproduce names accurately. The Community Aspirations petition will continue to be available for signing for future publication at the Belknap Mill Society, the Lakes Region United Way office, and on line at newdynam@aol.com. Please join us! Carol Pierce, Chair Laconia Human Relations Committee newdynam@aol.com Alan Robichaud Lakes Region United Way alan@lruw.org
I applaud 5 councilors for doing right thing for our community To the editor, I would like to respond to Councilor Brenda Baer’s letter dated Wednesday, June 27. As a former member of the Huot Technical Center’s renovation planning committee, I have been watching the process unfold with great interest. It is important to remember that, because of the state moratorium on school building aid, the Tech Center renovation is one of the only school building/renovation projects happening anywhere in the state this year. As a city, we were presented with an opportunity to make sorely-needed updates to the Tech. Center at an absolute minimum cost to local property taxpayers. Throughout the planning and design process, everyone
involved maintained focus on doing the most possible for our students in a fiscally responsible way. True, the project has grown in size, cost, and scope as time has gone by. Through the QZAB loan (which is completely interest-free,) opportunities arose to make essential repairs to Laconia High School. Additionally, it was determined that the science labs (which are woefully outdated) could be modernized into spaces that could meet the 21st Century needs of our students and be a source of pride for our school district. Finally, the football field will be replaced by an artificial turf field and the surrounding campus will be redesigned to make it a more functional outdoor space. As I believe see next page

LETTERS Republicans are an attack on everyone who works for a living To the editor, Nice attempt in a recent letter by Laconia State Rep. Harry Accornero to try to tie N.H. residents’ ability to have a financial safety net to his “leadership and resolve of the conservatives” in the Legislature. Being a former financial advisor I can warn you that financial responsibility should persuade you against voting for his radical ideology that he and his cronies smuggled into our Statehouse. Rep. Accornero mentioned balancing the state budget, but he conveniently forgot to mention how. (Nor have the other Laconia Republicans: Representatives Flanders, Kingsbury, Luther and Tilton). Their radical, nonrealty based legislation “balanced” the budget, among other gimmicks, on the back of N.H. hospitals through the Medicaid Enhancement Tax. What happened to the reimbursement? It went to the General Fund instead of to the hospitals. This has led to 10 hospitals filing suit in the State Supreme Court (Dartmouth-Hitchock v Toumpas). Rep. Accornero should explain how poor and working families and their children are now going to get adequate health care? They also “balanced” the budget by cutting support to the N.H. college and university system by almost 50-percent. N.H. already provided less support to higher education than any other state in the country, and our state’s students graduate with the highest average debt load in America. Do you wonder why young adults are leaving the state? Do you think that the companies that provide the jobs for the 21st Century’s economy will come to New Hampshire? Not likely, when young educated workers are not here. Two years ago his party ran on a
platform saying they would be “job creators.” Funny, I don’t recall any job-creating bills he and his gang have created. Was the unconstitutional bill you introduced to force students to stand for the Pledge of Allegiance a job creator? Does your grandstanding, and threatening an election official, on behalf of nonsensical “birtherism” create any jobs? Do you think the “Right to Work for Less” bills your party supported create jobs? They’re really an attack on everyone in this state who works for a living. What about the contraception bills you and your party supported? I’d say they are more of an attack on women’s health and rights. What about the ALECwritten voucher plan? It’s just another attack; this time on our public schools. Representative Accornero: where are the jobs and economic development you campaigned on? If you want to vote for a party that undercuts health care, undercuts public education, attacks workers, and women’s health then go ahead and re-elect this falsely-labelled “conservative leadership.” It’s neither conservative nor leadership. But if you want a party and candidates that believe in building up the middle class by defending the rights of workers and the ability to earn a decent wage, that believes in supporting our public education system as “the foundation of New Hampshire’s greatness” and one that supports our health care system and access to health care regardless of financial status then please vote for Beth Arsenault in Belknap County District 9 and for Judge David Huot, Chad Valliancourt, Robert Fisher, and myself in Belknap County District 3. Charlie Smith Democratic Candidate for NH House Laconia
Please join me in helping Jeanie Forrester get re-elected To the editor, This past Sunday I, along with many other supporters, attended a volunteer meeting for Senator Jeanie Forrester. I was so pleased to know that not only is Jeanie willing to step up to the plate and volunteer her time for another two years, but that she remains committed to running a positive campaign, just like the last time around. During her term in office, she has been accessible to her constituents, she listens, and she understands
that her time is better spent in the district. But more than that, Jeanie gets the job done and not just with legislation. When a constituent has a challenge, she follows through making the right connections with those in the state government to resolve the problem. I hope you will join me in helping Jeanie get re-elected. Let’s Keep Jeanie! Judy Ward Meredith
from preceding page has been reported in this paper, the artificial turf field is a) much safer for our athletes to play on, and b) actually pays for itself over time due to decreased maintenance costs. It’s a win-win for our kids and the community as a whole. I supported the expanded focus every step of the way, and I guess I’m confused as to why Council Baer only supported it part of the way (since she was against the renovation before she was for it, which was before she was against it again). After all, one of the motivations
to do as much as possible to renovate LHS was an acknowledgement that building a new high school is not in the cards at this point, and I know Council Baer opposes such a project. Regardless, I applaud Councilors Doyle, Lahey, Lipman, Hamel, and Bolduc for doing the right thing for our students, our school district, and our City in voting to approve securing the necessary funds to renovate the high school and the Huot Technical Center the right way at the right time.

LETTERS I’m for giving the best teachers an open checkbook from me To the editor, The Democratic Party’s mascot is the donkey. It can produce noise from both it’s front end and REAR END. When people speak for the donkey it’s difficult to tell which end is making the noise as they both sound alike. The sniff test tells all. On Saturday it was clear from the fowl stench in The Sun that the donkey had spoken from its rear end. Paul Bonneville and Bill Knightly, the man who never saw a failed, insolvent government program he couldn’t bear hug, had donkey dumped. Bill’s whole family taught him DONKEY for a lifetime so he refuses to THINK for HIMSELF. DEMOCRATS always want to THINK FOR YOU and protect you from the wolves. Like Bill, I lived in a hornets nest of Democrats. The single difference between us, I was able to escape with my brain, it may be cement but at least I HAVE ONE. I was fortunate to have one relative who decided to THINK for herself. My aunt started a nursing home at age 30 and died a millionaire several times over. The EXACT type of person Obama now DEMONIZES for taking a risks (creating jobs) and making a big success of herself. She felt so bad for my dad she built him a house for cash (and gave it to him) in order to extricate him from the rented mill houses he and my mom had lived for decades. She understood her best bet to improve her lot in life was her OWN initiative. OBAMA has spent his ENTIRE term trying to make TENS of millions MORE DEPENDENT on HIM and the DONKEY for the opulence of their living standards. Nothing has changed since FDR. Millions swap their individual freedom to THINK for government dependence unable to free them selves form a lifetime of family brain washing just like Bill Knightly. They scream for more controlling, expensive, expansive, government, more welfare, more powerful unions that do nothing more but make EVERY product they produce MORE EXPENSIVE and of less quality. Paul Bonneville produces the worst of the stink. He provides his philosophy about education. The last thing we need is MORE philosophy. It is UNDENIABLE to any one with even half a BRAIN, macro education has failed us all miserably for 30 years at every level from K to college. College graduates now drown in a RECORD TRILLION dollars of LOAN DEBT caused specifically from non stop, near double digit tuition hikes for decades and America spends the MOST PER PUPIL on public education of any country on earth with test results well down the from the top and falling further with each passing year. If MORE MONEY were the MAGIC ELIXIR to fix education why
didn’t it work 30 years ago or 10 years ago? Paul, If you have some empirical evidence that correlates with more MONEY improving macro EDUCATION THEN PRODUCE IT. Otherwise your just another DONKEY STONE WALL to honest reforms in education, trying to keep the MONEY flowing and the PUBLIC PIG TROTH brimming. This DOES NOTHING except raise educational costs for TAXPAYERS AND TUITION PAYERS and keep unions in control of education which is the REAL CANCER, slowly killing it. Paul, explain to readers just HOW TEACHERS UNIONS IMPROVE EDUCATION FOR EVERY KID IN AMERICA. The evidence is ABUNDANTLY clear how unions help TEACHERS by allowing them to stranglehold taxpayers in the never ending cycle of higher wages with more benefits driving pupil costs to the sky. There is NO CLARITY AT ALL how unions help the KIDS in any way. WHY don’t you and Bill Knightly INFORM all of us just HOW unions HELP improve educational performance for the KIDS. There must be a long list because teachers are willing to fight to their death and threaten the lives of those oppose them to keep UNIONS THERE. Be specific. No more philosophy BS. Just some FACTS. Anyone thinking I am not for spending BIG MONEY on education would be dead WRONG. I am all for giving the best teachers in Americas an open check book from me. Great teachers are Americas FINEST ASSET. I am for raising the STATURE of teaching in America so that the best graduates want to TEACH before going to Wall Street. We have to CHANGE THE GAME. America CAN NOT have 50-percent of it’s teachers graduating form the bottom 1/3 of their college class (like now) and produce a product competitive in the fight for jobs in the global economy. We can not have unions defending these lesser quality teachers all the way to the Supreme Court. Assuring marginal teachers that now stuff Americas class rooms will stay in place for 40 years. We remove teachers by last hired, first fired ignoring teaching ability almost 100-percent. We can not keep paying the less effective teachers the same as we do the very best ones. It is an INSULT TO THE BEST ONES and it destroys their morale, creativity and suggestions that will improve educations performance and PRODUCTIVITY. Unless teachers unions are removed NONE OF THIS WILL EVER CHANGE. TEACHERS UNIONS are OPPOSED to EVERYTHING that improves macro education for the KIDS AND REDUCES its cost. Tony Boutin Gilford
Free & fair elections in danger; Citizens United must be reversed To the editor, Senator John McCain (R-AZ) stated that Citizens United is “The worst decision by a Supreme Court in the 21st Century. Uninformed, arrogant, naive.” This court decision allows big corporations and rich individuals to donate unlimited amounts of money to a campaign. One such as multibillionaire, Sheldon Adelson, has stated he will give $100-million to the Republican presidential campaign. This Supreme Court decision gives a terrible advantage to a minority party – now the extreme right wing Republicans. It is a known fact that money is probably the major factor in winning an election. Think of all the Senate and House seats, federal, state and local, that usually run on only several thousand or several tens of thousands dollars. One person dumping a million dollars into those races will effectively purchase the outcome. It has been known for decades that money can influence the outcome of a political election. Previously, laws had been set up in states and nationally to limit campaign spending. The Citizens United decision by a biased right-leaning Supreme Court has swept away over a 100 years of leg-
islation and case laws that protected our elections from being bought. Very recently, in a separate ruling, the Supreme Court also invalidated the century old Montana Anti-Corruption Law which controlled the amount of contributions allowed in state elections. The highest court in the land ruled, without hearing any arguments, that Citizens United superseded all such state laws that limit contributions. A 5 to 4 split in the court said that independent expenditures by corporations “do not give rise to corruption”. In other words, the court reaffirmed or upheld their Citizens United decision which allows unlimited spending by corporations and the rich 1-percent. Be warned that free and fair elections are in danger. The Citizens United decision must be overturned for the sake of our democracy before the rich and powerful among us take complete control of our country. Contact your representative in Congress and ask them to consider new legislation that will protect our elections from unfair influence by the super-rich. Dr. Thomas Dawson Laconia
It is impossible for this species to ever learn from the past To the editor, I am so happy for Russ coming clean. Maybe he should think about having some kind of pride parade with that ever-beaming Harry Accernero as the grand marshal of the parade! A Winged Neanderthal Pterodactylus! Russ Wiles is hiding much! Maybe there are more Winged Neanderthal Pterodactyls than I thought. The usual Neanderthal has only claws for ripping flesh but not our teabaggis hybrid! Nope, this species has claws designed to rip a hole in the social safety net the size of Texas! And they aim to do that! But really, winged? I have not noticed any wings on my hairier brethren. Just because Russ, Bob, Steve, Tony, Bill, Jack, Harry, and Don have wild flights of fancy does not mean they have wings! But seriously, is Terence really the reason why the hairier and less sociable Neanderthalus Teabaggis is so different? The 30 year long Brock study found that the whiniest preschoolers became the hairiest and most rigid minded Neanderthals in adulthood. FMRI scans also showed that those with Neanderthalus Teabaggis DNA had larger Amygdalas than found the Homo Sapiens Rationalis. The Amygdala is
the fear center so its easy to understand all the irrational and fact-free howling that comes from our hairier, grumpier and more uptight brothers and sisters. Homo Sapiens Rationalis have smaller Amygdalas then the Neanderthalus Teabaggis species. Also, the part of the brain dealing with complex problem solving was larger in the Rationalis species than found in our glassy eyed and forever snorting brethren. Less fear and more sense! Russ mentioned another species, the Hippocampus Empticus but I think he has them confused with another species. The Hippocampus Empticus species can be viewed at the Concord Zoo just down the road from the Statehouse. This species was named so because the Hypocampus is where the brain synchs short and long term memories. Scans show us that Empticus species has a solid bone that looks like a hockey puck where the Hippocampus should be. It is therefore impossible for this species to ever learn from the past. They keep snorting out commands to do things that have already failed many times over in the past. James Veverka Tilton

LETTERS Humane Society of American asks us not to support animal acts To the editor, I’d like to thank Lousia Dell’Amico for her great letter about circus animals. I wish all people would teach children kindness and compassion, to each other and also to the animals, which are not ours just to use and abuse for our own entertainment. I remember going to a circus in Gilford when I was a small child and it was an experience I will never forget either, but not a good one. I can still see those poor lions pacing back and forth monotonously in their cages behind the dark stage area, and the cute little monkey chewing frantically in his tiny wire cage trying to get out. I felt so sorry for them. Children don’t understand, but par-
ents know and should teach their children wisely. I wish everyone would not to the circus coming to Laconia that has animal acts and that our community could bring in a really good circus that does not support cruelty! There are many out there that provide great entertainment without animals. I see so many articles in the paper about all the wonderful people who help the Humane Society and other animal shelters, let us not forget the poor circus animals! The Human Society of the United States encourages us not to support circuses with animal acts — there is a reason for that! Debra Rayno Gilford

Sometimes I wish there were more girls in my class; I’m the only one To the editor, My name is Rose and I am seven, well, almost eight years old. I have attended Holy Trinity Catholic School since kindergarten. Next year I will be in the third grade with Mrs. Gessner. It is a great school! Unfortunately, all the other kids in my class are boys. We are really good friends and we all love to read and write. But sometime I wish there were more girls in my class.
I would like to encourage more third grade girls in the Lakes Region to consider attending Holy Trinity Catholic School when the new school year begins. If you are a third grade girl and are interested in a great school, you should visit or call my school at (603) 524-3156. Rose Hynes Age 8 Laconia

Job creation? I have to drive 30 miles just to buy a bit of paper To the editor, I was in New Hampshire high schools at the same time Mitt was beating up gay kids in prep school. I remember a different downtown than we see today. Every town seemed to have a stationary store. That is where I would buy my pens and paper, etc. There were jobs being done in every town that had one
of those stationary stores. Mitt Romney claims the Staples chain as one of his miracles of job creation. Is it really? Now I have to drive 30 miles to buy a bit of paper for my computer. Wouldn’t that look like fewer jobs? Stephen Copithorne Alton

Part of rebuilding ‘community’ is buying our foods locally To the editor, It used to be that New Hampshire was a bustle with agricultural activity. Much of the foods we consumed were grown locally. Every family had a working knowledge of how to preserve the yearly harvest. What a family could not grow for themselves was augmented by what the community’s farms could grow. We were more self-reliant, healthier and happier. Many of us lament the passing of our former community spirit. We fondly remember going with our mom’s to

Annual Lakes Region United way fund drive topped $1-million mark for first time; organization considering merging with giant Granite United Way By RogeR Amsden MEREDITH — More than 200 people gathered at the Inn at Church Landing Thursday evening to help the organization celebrate a record fundraising year which saw the organization raise over $1.2-million for support of its community programs and partnerships. Mark Primeau, president and CEO of the Bank of New Hampshire and chairman of the board of directors, said that the $1.2-million invested in education and healthy communities represents a 48-percent increase over previous years. ‘’We continue to focus on the sustainability and effectiveness of the social service non-profit network in the Lakes Region, strengthening many through the organization’s Financial Stability Partnership and working to increase levels of cooperation and collaboration.’’ said Primeau. He said the organization remains committed to work on growth in Grafton and Carroll Counties and is focusing on the Whole Village in Plymouth as an asset with a great upside potential for making a real difference in people’s lives. Primeau also said that discussions will continue with Granite United Way on the possible benefits of a merger. ‘’We will undertake such a merger only if it is beneficial to those we already serve,’’ said Primeau, who said that a discussion with all stakeholders will be held this summer. On July 1, 2010, the former United Ways known as Heritage United Way, United Way of Merrimack County, Upper Valley United Way and the North Country United Way officially merged to form Granite United Way. On February 1, of this year the United Way of Northern New Hampshire joined Granite United Way and the organization now serves over half a million residents in NH and Vermont and covers nearly 75-percent of
the state’s geographic territory. LRUW President Jack Terrill, said that the Lakes Region United Way was losing someone who is irreplaceable with the pending retirement of Judi Taggart, campaign director, and praised her for all of the work she has done over the years for the organization. ‘’You can be very proud of all you’ve done for the Lakes Region,’’ Terrill told her, as he presented her with roses after sheepishly admitting that he had forgotten to buy them himself and had to borrow some from those being presented by the United Way campaign team leaders. Prior to her acceptance of the flowers an impromptu “flash mob” dance routine was performed by young dancers from Broadway North, livening up the entire event, causing Primeau to comment that not only had Taggart overruled her boss by having entertainment on the schedule, but that she had also had overruled the board of directors. Sandy Clary of Cru-Con of Center Harbor was singled out for praise for her firm’s donation of five cruise trips as an incentive for fundraisers. Terrill estimated that those cruises brought in an additional $150,000 in revenue. Winners of major annual awards were announced at the meeting. The Sara Allen Award, an honor given to an agency or initiative that takes important steps to either ensure their services are sustainable or enhance the effectiveness of those services, was awarded to Health First Family Care Center and accepted by Rick Silverberg, executive director. The agency was honored for its efficient welcoming of 800 new Medicaid patients in the last several months. Other nominees were Better Together, Childhood Readiness & Success Team-Carroll County, Got Lunch! Laconia and Pemi-Baker Community Health.

ROBERTS from page one mandate as a valid exercise of Congress’ authority to “lay and collect taxes.” The administration estimates that roughly 4 million people will pay the penalty rather than buy insurance. Roberts, appointed by Republican President George W. Bush, opposed by young Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois and much-criticized by Democrats in recent years, sided with his court’s liberals on a major case for the second time this week as the justices concluded their 2011-12 term. On Monday, he had voted to invalidate parts of Arizona’s tough crackdown on illegal immigrants. In the health care case, Congress had referred to a penalty, not a tax, on people who don’t obtain insurance. But Roberts said the court would not get hung up on labels. Among other indications it is a tax, Roberts said, “the payment is collected solely by the IRS through the normal means of taxation.” “Because the Constitution permits such a tax, it is not our role to forbid
it, or to pass upon its wisdom or fairness,” Roberts said. Many Republicans oppose the law, arguing that it marks a government takeover of health care at the same time it curtails Medicare spending and raises taxes. They also point to studies that predict private employers will be forced to reduce or eliminate coverage and that the legislation will wind up costing far more than estimated, raising federal deficits as a result. Stocks of hospital companies rose and some insurance companies fell after the ruling. The decision should help hospitals by adding millions of people to the rolls of the insured, expanding the pool of health care consumers. But by the same reasoning, insurance companies will also gain millions of premium-paying customers. The court found problems with the law’s expansion of Medicaid, but even there it said the expansion could proceed as long as the federal government does not threaten to withhold states’ entire Medicaid allotment if

campaign design excellence and development of a giving culture that utilizes best practices to encourage individual and corporate community investment, was presented to the Laconia Clinic, which recorded an 88-percent increase in giving and was accepted by Vice President Andy Patterson. Other nominees included the Bank of New Hampshire, Belmont Elementary School, Eptam Plastics, Laconia High School, Laconia Housing Authority, Melcher & Prescott Insurance, Meredith Village Savings Bank, Northway Bank, Pike Industries and United Parcel Service.
The Captain Ralph B. Bristol Award for outstanding volunteer of the year was presented to Pam Paquette of Public Service Company of New Hampshire, who for the last 16 years has led the Day of Caring planning efforts. Other nominees for the Bristol Award were Howard Cunningham, Marti Ilg, Susan Nadeau, Mike Persson and Karen Wilson. Paquette said she was ‘’a bit overwhelmed. I didn’t do this to get accolades,’’ and said that the success of the Day of Caring efforts were created ‘’by a great new team.’
they don’t take part. Justices Stephen Breyer, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Elena Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor joined Roberts in the outcome. Justices Samuel Alito, Anthony Kennedy, Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas dissented. Kennedy summarized the dissent in the courtroom. “In our view, the act before us is invalid in its entirety,” he said. The dissenters said in a joint statement that the law “exceeds federal power both in mandating the purchase of health insurance and in denying non-consenting states all Medicaid funding.” The justices rejected two of the administration’s three arguments in support of the insurance requirement. Roberts agreed with his conservative colleagues that Congress lacks the power under the Constitution’s commerce clause to put the mandate in place. “The federal government does not have the power to order people to buy health insurance,” he said in a part of his opinion that the liberal justices
did not join. But his crucial bottom line was: “The federal government does have the power to impose a tax on those without health insurance.” In all, the justices spelled out their views in six opinions totaling 187 pages. Roberts, Kennedy and Ginsburg spent 51 minutes summarizing their views in the courtroom. The legislation passed Congress in early 2010 after a monumental struggle in which all Republicans voted against it. House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., said Thursday the House will vote July 11 on whether to repeal the law, though such efforts have virtually no chance in the Democratic-controlled Senate. House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said the health care law makes it harder for small businesses to hire workers. “Today’s ruling underscores the urgency of repealing this harmful law in its entirety,” he said. But Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., heaped praise on the court’s decision, and the 2010 law, in see next page

from preceding page a Senate speech. “Passing the Affordable Care Act was the greatest single step in generations toward ensuring access to affordable, quality health care for every American, regardless of where they live or how much money they make,” he said. House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi cast the decision as vindication for her work to secure passage of the far-reaching legislation. “This decision is a victory for the American people. With this ruling, Americans will benefit from critical patient protections, lower costs for the middle class, more coverage for families, and greater accountability for the insurance industry,” Pelosi said. After the ruling, Republican campaign strategists said Romney will use it to continue campaigning against “Obamacare” — the name the GOP gave the plan In derision, though many Democrats now accept it — and in attacking the president’s signature health care program as a tax increase. “Obama might have his law, but the GOP has a cause,” said veteran campaign adviser Terry Holt. “This promises to galvanize Republican support around a repeal of what could well be called the largest tax increase in American history.” Democrats said Romney, who backed an individual health insurance mandate when he was Massachusetts governor, will have a hard time exploiting the ruling. “Mitt Romney is the intellectual godfather of Obamacare,” said Democratic consultant Jim Manley. “The bigger issue is the rising cost of health care, and this bill is designed to deal with it.” Ginsburg, an appointee of Democratic President Bill Clinton, said in her opinion that “Congress followed Massachusetts’ lead.” More than eight in 10 Americans already have health insurance. But for most of the 50 million who are uninsured, the ruling offers the promise of guaranteed coverage at affordable prices. Lower-income and many middle-class families will be eligible for subsidies to help pay premiums starting in 2014. There’s also an added safety net for all Americans, insured and uninsured. Starting in 2014, insurance companies will not be able to deny coverage for medical treatment, nor can they charge more to people with health problems. Those protections, now standard in most big employer plans, will be available to all, including people who get laid off, or leave a corporate job to launch their own small business. Seniors also benefit from the law through better Medicare coverage for those with high prescription costs, and no copayments for preventive care. But hospitals, nursing homes, and many other service providers may struggle once the Medicare cuts used to finance the law really start to bite.

GILFORD from page one that led to the arrest of five exotic dancers and three occasional patrons for drug trafficking after a raid on the nightspot last October. Drew, who holds the liquor license and owns the property but leased the management of the business to another party, was charged with a half-dozen violations of state liquor laws, of which the most serious was allowing the premises to be used for an unlawful purpose. Following a hearing stretching over three days, the Liquor Commission found that there was sufficient evidence of three violations, but not for the others, including that he allowed his property to be used for the buying and selling of illicit drugs. The commission ordered Eddie Edwards, chief of enforcement, and David Bownes, Drew’s attorney, to recommend appropriate penalties for the violations for which it found sufficient evidence and after reviewing their submissions will issue an order. Initially Drew’s liquor license was held in “safekeeping” by the commission, but in May he was allowed to reopen but alcohol sales were restricted to
beer and wine. Meanwhile, the town refrained from revoking his entertainment permit, but suspended exotic dancing and restricted live entertainment to a disc jockey. Drew’s entertainment permit expires at the end of the end of the month. This week the Board of Selectmen unanimously agreed to extend it until July 11, when they will consider his application to renew it to include exotic dancing. Dunn said that the board anticipated that by July 11 the Liquor Commission will have issued its order, but allowed that if it has not, Drew could request conditional approval of his permit pending action by the commission or ask for a further extension pending the decision of the commission. According to the revised live entertainment ordinance adopted in February, license applications must be reviewed by the town administrator, police chief, fire chief and planning director, all of whom must present independent recommendations to approve, approve with conditions or deny the application to the Selectboard. However, the ordinance stipulates that “the final decision is at the sole discretion of Board of Selectmen.”

KENNEDY from page one and I still am,” she said to applause. “He’s fighting for the America I believe in.” Kennedy is on the last leg of a three-stop New Hampshire campaign tour for Obama but yesterday’s gathering came but one hour after the Supreme Court announced its 5-to-4 decision to uphold the Affordable Health Care Act — a signature piece of legislation for the Obama Administration. In her five minute speech before a local audience of all ages, Kennedy said the Supreme Court decision was poignant for her because her uncle, the late Sen. Ted Kennedy, D-Mass. fought for health care his whole life. Kennedy lauded other legislation passed in the Obama years including the Lily Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, the elimination of Don’t Ask Don’t Tell, and the end of the war in Iraq and gave them as examples of how the Obama Administration is leading for the future. She also warned of the tough and expensive campaign being waged by Republican Candidate Mitt Romney. “We need to work out hearts out,” she said telling everyone that the Romney campaign will be expensive and divisive. “It’s up to us to create a government and I don’t want a government that Mitt Romney creates,” she said. Former N.H. State Senator Deb Reynolds of Plymouth introduced Kennedy and in her opening remarks said the Obama administration is emblematic in that he had shown that if you work hard and play by the rules, you can make it in America. There were many local faces at yesterday’s gathering including Meredith Selectman Carla Horne who said she’s excited about the Democratic Party taking back the state and the county and was thrilled with the Supreme Court decision to uphold Obama’s health care act. Retired Lakes Region Community College President Mark Edelstein said he supports Obama’s vision for America that includes better education for young people and the advocacy of less income disparity between Americans. Edelstein said Obama’s record on a number of issues, including education is a good one but he has been stymied by an “obdurate” Republican Party in Congress. Others locals who joined the nearly 200 people present included former State Rep. Kate Miller, former State Rep. Jane Wood and her husband Pat of Laconia. EUROPE from page 3 take years — and now the start of that process has been postponed in the wake of Thursday’s impasse. As the biggest economy among the 17 countries that use the euro, Germany would have to shoulder the brunt of the debt. Merkel is also concerned eurobonds would ease the pressure on financially weaker countries to reform their economies. That includes making labor markets more flexible, lowering business costs, cutting red tape and fighting tax evasion. Spain also needs to force its banks to cover massive losses from an imploded real estate markets. While pressure on Merkel has been building, she is not alone in her opposition to eurobonds. Austria, Finland and the Netherlands are also opposed, among euro countries. Without any emergency measures to reassure investors over the fate of Spain and Italy, the growth pact is likely to leave markets disappointed. European Council President Herman Van Rompuy said the lending capacity of the European Investment Bank would be increased by €60 billion, adding that “this money must flow across Europe, and at least to the most vulnerable countries” to help them grow out of the crisis. But that includes €50 billion in already existing EIB money, with only €10 billion in new capital, as it loans alongside private investors. The EIB’s board has cautioned that it may have difficulty in finding projects that meet its standards. Then there are €55 billion in funds that were already earmarked in the EU’s 2013 budget for

WILDFIRES from page one in decades did little to help ease the concerns of many residents who still did not know the fate of homes. Amid the devastation in the foothills of Colorado Springs, there were hopeful signs. Flames advancing on the U.S. Air Force Academy were stopped and cooler conditions could help slow the fire. As of mid-day Thursday, the fire was 10 percent contained. The cost of fighting the blaze had already reached $3.2 million. Colorado Springs Mayor Steve Bach said the 346 estimate could change. A fire in northern Colorado, which is still burning, destroyed 257 homes and until Thursday was the most destructive in state history. For now, Bach said, the news of the destruction would make it very difficult for the city about 60 miles south of Denver. “This is going to be a tough evening, but we’re going to get through it,” Bach said. “This community is going to surround them with love and encouragement ... We will move forward as a community.”

LACONIA — The Kelly Miller Circus was a popular attraction when it stopped here last year, selling out four of its six shows and nearing capacity for the other two. This year, an additional show has been added to the schedule and to ensure that audience members are just as pleased this year, each show will feature five new acts as well as favorites from last year. Jim Royal, general manager of the Oklahomabased circus, said the new acts add oohs, ahhs and gasps to the show. “Gasps are very important in a circus,” he said. The Duo Delara, a pair of female trapeze artists, is one of the new acts Royal said is keeping audience members on the edge of their seat. They perform what is known as an “aerial cradle act,” in which one partner hangs upside-down from the trapeze and supports the other artist as she performs tricks. “A very interesting and thrilling act. It has a surprise ending that has people gasping,” Royal said. A new production number, “Pirates of the Kellybean,” features Peruvian acrobat Fridman Torales as he balances atop a series of rolling cylinders. “It’s pretty hair-raising,” said Royal. The number also features sword-fighting, knife-throwing, dog stunts and an aerial ballet, “all in a pirate motif.” The Fusco Gauchos, exuberant Argentinean entertainers, put on an act that includes acrobatics, juggling, dancing and music. The “Enchanting Miss Rebecca” is another new act, said Royal. She’ll provide more aerial excitement. Royal said, “It’s a nailbiting routine on the trapeze. She’s not biting her nails, but the audience is.” Animal trainer Mike Rice is back with his camels. This year, though, his herd includes a lone zebra who fits right in despite his stripes. “Fortunately, he likes the camels. They’re quite pal-ey, he got the right zebra for the act,” said Royal. “It was a great show last year,” said Royal, inviting one and all to see the circus’s new additions. “It’s a lot of fun, two hours, jam-packed, and under the tent.” The Kelly Miller Circus will be in town from July 6 through 8. The big top will again be set up at Memorial Park in the South End. Advance tickets are available at several local businesses, including The Daily Sun office at 1127 Union Avenue. The advance price is $10 per adult or $6 per child. Remaining tickets will be sold at the door for $15 for adults or $7 for children. “Ticket sales are going very well,” reported Drew see next page

Hands Across The Table celebrates 1st birthday LACONIA — One year ago, a community outreach was born, called Hands Across the Table (HATT). The mission was to feed all who are hungry in body and spirit, and to do so willingly and with compassion and understanding. This weekly dinner party was co-founded by Joyce Ringleb of Sanbornton. The dinners feed up to 150 local residents each week at the St. James Episcopal Church (5:30 to 6:30 p.m.) Over the past year many families, homeless citizens, and seniors have come to the dinners excited to see their new friends,have a time of companionship, and receive a healthy and nutritious free meal. Over 75-percent of the guests are repeat visitors. Usually there are upwards of 15-20 children. Second helpings are always available and leftover food can be taken home as long as guests bring a container. Each week a new group of volunteers will organize, cook, serve the food, and clean up. Lou Gaynor, former owner of the Lobster Pound is the head chef. This past Tuesday, Hands Across the Table celebrated one year of helping those in need of a decent meal in the community. The anticipation of our Tuesday dinner last week brought guests lining up on the ramp as early as 3:30 p.m. The ramp and entry into the hall were decorated with streamers so the excitement began early. The anniversary dinner was prepared by Gaynor and Tammy Fontaine. Assisting with the prep again this week were Jude and Eddie Morin.The dinner was meatloaf, mash potato and a vegetable medley, chef salad with rolls and butter. A marble birthday cake with the HATT logo on top was served for dessert with vanilla ice cream and a medley of fruit on the side. Oranges were available for everyone to take. The blessing was given by Rev. Tobias Nyatsambo (Rector of St. James Church). from preceding page Seneca, a member of the Laconia Main Street Initiative, the local organization that is sponsoring the event. The Main Street Initiative, a non-profit that works to promote downtown activities, will earn revenue for each ticket that is sold. Seneca encouraged interested parties to purchase their tickets in advance to realize substantial savings. “We hope to sell them all out,” Seneca said, recalling the popularity of last year’s shows. “We’re getting excited as it gets closer and closer to circus time. To be honest, I enjoy it as much as the kids do.”

Community College readies to break ground on new 27,000-square-foot Health & Science Building By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — Next month Lakes Region Community College expects to begin construction of its second academic building built in the past seven years, completing the expansion originally conceived a decade ago as a center for arts and technology, with 70,000-square-feet of classroom and laboratory space. President Scott Kalicki explained this week that in 2003 the Legislature appropriated only enough funds to build half the planned space, which was constructed and opened in September 2005 as the Center for Arts and Technology (CAT) Building to house the computer and electrical technologies, fire science, graphic design and printing technology programs. Last year the Legislature provided $6.4-million to construct the balance of the project. Kalicki said that work was first expected to begin last year and later this spring, but has been delayed as the design and engineering of the building has been tailored to fit the budget. Originally designed for 30,000-square-feet, Kalicki said that the final design will be closer to 27,000-square-feet. Called the Health and Science Building, it will go up just north of CAT Building and will house the nursing and fire science programs, together with the basic sciences — biology, physics and chemistry.

as though they were in a hospital and occupied by “high fidelity mannikins, whose vital signs and medical conditions can be manipulated with the touch of a finger to simulate a variety of scenarios. There will be sufficient space and equipment to enroll 32 students in the two-year nursing program each year. The college works closely with LRGHealthcare to ensure that the quality and content of its nursing program meets the standards and requirements of the medical community. The fire science program, which is offered nowhere else in the community college system, will have a dedicated laboratory in the new building where instructors can conduct controlled burns to provide students with practical experience in recognizing how to address different types of fires and emergencies. The space will adjoin an paved apron outside the building where fire apparatus can be placed to enable students to master the operation of the equipment. “The new building will represent a significant enhancement of our nursing and fire science programs,” Kalicki said. In addition, the new building will have what Kalicki calls “an academic commons,” a flexible space that can be configured as classroom for 120, a theater for 180 or even a dining area, which he said would offer a place for students pursuing different courses and working to different schedules to come see next page

GILFORD — Police Chief Kevin Keenan and Operations Lt. Jim Leach told selectmen Wednesday night that upgrading the radio system by adding a signal repeater was becoming more complicated and expensive than they initially thought. The two told selectman that consultants at Ossipee Mountain Electronic said completing a two-way radio upgrade could cost up to $150,000 — although the upgrade would include the Department of Public Works radios as well. The possible upgrade would add a repeater and would eliminate the need for the $600 to $700 a month the department spends on transmission line, although Town Administrator Scott Dunn noted $600 a month to payoff $150,000 is a “long payback.” There are two things driving the need for the Gilford Police Department to upgrade their radios. The first is the safety and efficiency of police personnel that is compromised because of the large number of “dead spots” created largely by hills and other physical barriers to two-way radio transmission. Second and key is the FCC ruling that requires all United States two-way radio transmission to switch to narrow band by the end of the year. In December 2004, the FCC ruled that all private land mobile radio users operating below 512 MHz must move to 12.5 kHz narrow band voice channels and highly efficient data channel operations by the end of the year of 2012. No new licenses for public safety will be renewed unless this criteria is met. Leach said the switch to what is called “narrow from preceding page together at a college with no student center. Quiet meeting places where small groups of students can meet or work together will be scattered throughout the building. The new building will constructed alongside the CAT Building and the two will share a landscaped plaza, which Kalicki said would provide a focal point to the campus. When the new building is complete, space will open in the CAT building. Kalicki said that the culinary arts program operates at the Belmont Mill and “we need to get them on this campus and perhaps
band” could exacerbate the dead spots and a further switch to digital from analogue could make the dead spots even worse. He explained that even a bad or “scratchy” analogue or wave radio transmissions can be heard while digital or “dot” radio transmissions are either heard or its not. Right now, Leach said the police department has three antennas — one at the Department of Transportation District 3 building located just off the Laconia Bypass at Rte. 11-A; one in a residential neighborhood on Gunstock Mountain Road and one on a shed in Lake Shore Park. The dead spots occur when the radio antenna can’t “face” or see each other said Leach. He said the addition of a repeater — a device that transmits at a much higher wattage than typical portable radios, which allows for a much larger coverage area — would solve the dead spot problem. Leach said the department has a radio that could be converted to be a repeater however the bulk of the expense is securing a position on the Mount Rowe radio tower. Leach also said that there is federal grant money for the purchase of some digital radios and those, added to the digital radios the department already had, should allow every officer to have one. Selectmen asked Keenan and Leach to gather more information and to reach out to Belknap County Sheriff Craig Wiggin and the County Commissioners to see if there is any region-wide narrowband conversion program from which the police and public works department could benefit.
open a restaurant in the space vacated by fire science.” He said that automotive and marine technology program, which as training center for Mercury Marine on the east coast draws students from the entire eastern seaboard, also need more space. Kalicki said that SMRT Architects and Engineers, P.C. of Portland, Maine, the designers and engineers for the project, and Bonnette, Page & Stone Coprporation of Laconia, the general contractor, are refining the plans and adjusting the costs in anticipation of breaking ground in July.

Celtics pick Ohio State’s Sullinger with 21st pick in NBA draft BOSTON (AP) — Jared Sullinger had back problems. Fab Melo’s troubles came in the classroom. The Boston Celtics hope the two big men they drafted on Thursday night will help fix some of their issues on the court. At their best, Sullinger was a productive scorer from the inside and the perimeter for Ohio State and Melo was an outstanding defender who blocked 10 shots in one game last season for Syracuse. “We think this draft kind of fell perfectly almost for us because we got guys we consider potential starters down the road at the power forward and center position,” Celtics assistant general manager Ryan McDonough said. “By all accounts, they’re good kids and hard workers.” The Celtics took another Orange player, swingman Kris Joseph, with the 21st choice in the second round, the 51st overall. With free agent Kevin Garnett contemplating retirement, the two first-round picks may have to be quick studies and make a speedy transition to the NBA. “We’ll get both of them next week,” Boston coach Doc Rivers said. “We’re going to two summer leagues because we anticipated that we’re going to have a lot of work with our young guys.” Last year’s draft picks, forward JaJuan Johnson and guard E’Twuan Moore, played sparingly as rookies from Purdue. Sullinger, taken with the 21st pick, and Melo, chosen 22nd, are better known nationally than
those players. They met in the Elite Eight on the Celtics home court this year with Ohio State winning 77-70 — behind 19 points and seven rebounds from Sullinger — before falling to Kansas 64-62 in the NCAA semifinals. Boston obtained the 22nd pick in the trade that sent center Kendrick Perkins to Oklahoma City in 2010-11. Rivers said the Celtics were interested in trading the two picks for a higher one but “for any of the guys we had interest (in) we couldn’t even come close.” Sullinger and Melo join a team that made it to the seventh game of the Eastern Conference finals, further than widely expected, before losing to the Miami Heat. The 6-foot-9, 280-pound Sullinger was projected as a lottery pick before the season, averaged 17.5 points and 9.2 rebounds as a sophomore and was a two-time consensus All-American. But his draft stock had fallen, in part because of concerns about back problems. “All the doctors we talked to cleared him,” said Rivers, who was at the draft in Newark, N.J. with his son, Duke guard Austin Rivers, who was taken 10th by New Orleans. “I’m hoping that the projections of him before the season are right.” Only two Ohio State players, Jerry Lucas and Michael Redd, scored more points in their first two college seasons than Sullinger’s 1,282. “We think Jared is a starting caliber power forward down the road. We love his ability to score with
his back to the basket. He’s a good passer out of the post,” McDonough said. “Jared’s one of the better rebounders in the country. He has a great feel for where the ball is going to come off. He has terrific hands. He’s also able to step away from the basket and make shots. He’s developed a pretty nice face-up game.” The 7-foot, 255-pound Melo led Syracuse with 5.8 rebounds and 2.9 blocks per game while averaging 7.8 points last season but missed the NCAA tournament because of academic issues. He had played sparingly as a freshman but was named Big East defensive player of the year as a sophomore. “Fab grew up as a soccer player in Brazil,” McDonough said. “He’s only been playing the game for a few years, but his improvement, especially from last year to this year, was fairly rapid.” He still has a long way to go. “We have to teach him the Celtics way,” Rivers said. “We have to teach him how to work and understanding playing as a winner. There’s a lot of work that has to be done, but I love starting with size and potential. He has both of those things and if he has great character then we have a chance. “For us to get a 7-footer at that pick is a good pick for us.” They Celtics have just four players under contract, forwards Paul Pierce and Johnson and guards Rajon Rondo and Avery Bradley. Their top unrestricted free agents are Garnett, Ray Allen, Brandon Bass and backup forward Mickael Pietrus.

LRCC still accepting applications for fall term LACONIA — Twenty-eight degree programs, thirty-nine certificates, and more than three hundred forty classes and workshops are now being offered in Lakes Region Community College’s (LRCC) 2012 Fall Semester that starts on Tuesday, September 4, 2012. And applications are still being accepted. “One benefit of a community college is that there is an ongoing, open door policy that offers enormous opportunity for all students,” says LRCC Academic Affairs Vice President, Tom Goulette of Belmont, himself a graduate of LRCC, who continued for his Bachelor’s and Master’s Degrees, and completed his Certificate of Advanced Graduate Studies at Plymouth State University. “LRCC is still accepting applications for the 2012 Fall Semester and College personnel would love to have you.

You are welcome anytime at LRCC.” Learning options abound. “LRCC has a large number of 100% on-line course options where students coming from a long distance can do all of their
coursework at home or work, 24 hours a day, on their own computers,” continues Goulette. “There is a 7-week and an 8-week Hybrid Term, a full semester Hybrid Term, hands-on laboratory and classroom courses, and conventional offerings of all types. There is definitely something for everyone at LRCC and financial aid is readily available.” “Whether you’re interested in Energy Services Technology, Culinary Arts, Computer Technologies, Fine Arts, or Marine and Automotive Technologies, call 524-3207 or stop by the Main Campus on Prescott Hill,” says Goulette. “We are an ‘open door’ opportunity for all.” Lakes Region Community College is a fully accredited, comprehensive community college located in the Lakes Region of New Hampshire that serves over 1,200 students annually. LRCC offers 23 associate degree programs including Nursing, Fire Technology, Energy Services, Media Arts, Culinary Arts, Automotive, and Marine Technology, as well as short-term certificate programs.

GILFORD — If there is one end of summer event that is not to be missed, it is The Rise Above Fest founded by Seether. Joining Seether are fellow rockers Buckcherry, Puddle of Mudd, Black Stone Cherry and Otherwise. The Meadowbrook U.S. Cellular Pavilion is proud to be the first and only venue to host this new event and raise awareness for teen suicide. The show takes place September 3, Ticket prices range from $29.75 to $64.50. While the name of the festival derives from one of Seether’s hit songs “Rise Above This” both the song and the festival have much more meaning to the band, especially lead singer Shaun Morgan. The song itself was originally written to bring Shaun’s younger brother Eugene Welgemoed out of his depression. Sadly Eugene ended his own life at a very young age before getting to hear the song he inspired. Suicide is the third leading cause of death for 15-to-
24-year-olds, and the sixth leading cause of death for 5-to-14-year-olds. The Rise Above Fest’s mission is to raise awareness to the ever growing threat of teenage suicide. Several local and national charitable foundations will be invited to educate and help prevent teenage suicide with a portion of the proceeds going to support the community of Gilford. The Rise Above Fest will raise money for NAMI-NH (National Alliance on Mental Illness-NH), a multi-faceted organization dedicated to improving the quality of life of persons of all ages affected by mental illness or serious emotional disorders through education, support and advocacy. In addition to the top name national acts uniting for the cause, there will be several local and regional acts performing. The acts will also compete for a coveted opening spot on the main stage. Call (603) 293-4700 for tickets or order online at www.meadowbrook.net. For more information on NAMI-NH, log on to www.NAMINH.org.

LACONIA — The LRGHealthcare Family Birthplace is now offering new parents the Period of Purple Crying education program. The program, developed by the National Center on Shaken Baby Syndrome, offers ways to understand a time in a baby’s life between 2 weeks and 5 months when the amount of time a baby cries increases. Crying can last up to 5 hours a night for some infants. Each letter in the word purple stands for a different feature of this developmental stage.

Greater Meredith Program sponsors July 4 fireworks MEREDITH — The Greater Meredith Program (GMP) will sponsor the traditional 4th of July fireworks for the Town of Meredith. GMP has partnered with the Inns and Spa at Mill Falls to bring a spectacular fireworks display from Atlas Pyro Vision Productions to Meredith again this year. The fireworks are scheduled to begin at 9:30 p.m. on July 4 over Meredith Bay. If inclement weather prohibits the display, the rain date is July 5 at 9:30 p.m. Fireworks are a holiday tradition for many people and as exciting as they are to watch, they also can be dangerous. The explosive chemicals can injure people and damage property. The Fire Marshall for the State of New Hampshire requires that during the loading, set-up, and display, a minimum of 300 feet to be isolated around the area (no vehicles or spectators are permitted.) To comply with safety regulations, the Meredith Boat Ramp and Town Docks will be closed at 3 p.m. In addition, Route 3 from Lake Street to Route 25 will be closed at 8 p.m. and re-open at approximately 10:30 p.m. Traffic will be diverted from Route 3 onto Lake Street and then to Main Street to avoid the closed section of Route 3. The Greater Meredith Program (GMP) is a nonprofit community development organization dedicated to enhancing economic vitality, historical and cultural heritage, and town-wide beautification. GMP strives to achieve these goals through direct advocacy and action and to capture and extend the vision, energy and inter-organizational cooperation that have made Meredith an outstanding community. The GMP Board of Directors is comprised of community leaders and town officials who volunteer their time and expertise to advance the mission of the organization.

LACONIA – LRGHealthcare Oncology/Hematology and NH Oncology-Hematology PA consider the improvement of health care and disease prevention an integral part of their mission, and participation in research programs allows improved treatments and prevention of cancer. Previous research has determined that women with increased breast density are at slightly higher risk of developing breast cancer over their lifetime. Many researchers believe low Vitamin D levels may also increase the risk of developing breast cancer, however additional research is needed to substantiate this theory. LRGHealthcare is pleased to announce they have joined a Vitamin D Research Study to help find answers for women. The trial will be looking at changes in breast density on mammogram associated with Vitamin D supplementation, and the
information gained from the trial could be an important step in gaining understanding of the role of Vitamin D in cancer prevention. Premenopausal woman age 55 or younger, with regular menses and increased breast density on previous mammogram are eligible. The following are also requirements for the trial study: — Willingness to have an annual physical exam with primary care physician, and a copy of exam results shared with a research nurse; — Annual mammogram for two consecutive years; — Vitamin D supplement or a placebo for one year (Provided by the trial) To find out if you are eligible for the trial or to answer any questions, contact LRGHealthcare Oncology Research Nurse Dawn Coleman, RN at 524-3211, Ext. 3561 or Dr. Robert Friedlander at 527-2905.

Get Fuzzy
By Holiday Mathis generation has its own peculiar logic. The relationships you cherish may not be something you could explain to your elders. You’ll do your best, though. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Make a game plan for getting what you want. The planning is very important. It’s not so easy to do, but it’s very important. Take all the time you need to make an excellent plan. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ll relate well to the people you meet, quickly finding common ground. The wide range of life experiences you’ve sought makes this possible, which is why you continue to seek new adventures daily. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Someone in your history was displeased with how the events of your relationship unfolded. The blame is not entirely yours to claim. It takes two to tango. The sooner you move on the better. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You can be proud of how you got past the difficulties in your life. And if you ever need to remember, you have witnesses to those times. It will bolster your confidence to privately celebrate your victory once more. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 29). A strange series of events begins at the start of July, and you’ll make sweet success of what comes. The next six months will challenge you in the way that windmills challenged Don Quixote. The only difference is that you know windmills are not giants, and yet they still seem like something to be conquered. Taurus and Scorpio people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 24, 11, 14, 39 and 29.
TUNDRA
ARIES (March 21-April 19). The way you look or the way you think you look will have a profound influence on how the day unfolds. Taking the time to dress for the occasion will bolster your confidence. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your domestic and professional needs are very much in line right now, making it relatively easy for you to get where you want to go. The energy is with you, so run with it. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You have kindred spirits you don’t even know about. You’ll meet one this weekend, so get out there and be ready to place your hand in the hand of another and say hello. CANCER (June 22-July 22). How light can you be? The answer is, as light as your heart will allow. Unburden yourself, and you can fly up to the moon in your imagination -- a meditation that is highly recommended now. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your inner needs are mirrored in the people you meet today. The cool thing about it is that you don’t even know what you need until someone you meet speaks the words. Magic. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Waiting can be something that happens when you’re in between events, or it can be a habit. Which one is it for you? Think about establishing a habit of doing things right now. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You have an appetite today, an appetite for a high quality of life and a fruitful existence. You’ll bite into that fruit and be excited by the tastes that are so of the moment that you’ll hardly believe your joy. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Each

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Friday, June 29, 2012— Page 23
––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Friday, June 29, the 181st day of 2012. There are 185 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On June 29, 1972, the U.S. Supreme Court, in Furman v. Georgia, Jackson v. Georgia and Branch v. Texas, struck down a trio of death sentences, saying the way they had been imposed constituted cruel and unusual punishment. (The ruling prompted states to effectively impose a moratorium on executions until their capital punishment laws could be revised.) On this date: In 1613, the original Globe Theatre in London was destroyed by a fire. In 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 to repeal the duties — except for tea.) 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 1927, the first trans-Pacific airplane flight was completed as Lt. Lester J. Maitland and Lt. Albert F. Hegenberger arrived at Wheeler Field in Hawaii aboard the Bird of Paradise, an AtlanticFokker C-2, after flying 2,400 miles from Oakland, Calif., in 25 hours, 50 minutes. In 1954, the Atomic Energy Commission voted against reinstating Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer’s access to classified information. In 1956, actress Marilyn Monroe married playwright Arthur Miller in a civil ceremony in White Plains, N.Y. (the marriage lasted 4½ years). 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 two-month military offensive into Cambodia. In 1988, the U.S. Supreme Court, in Morrison v. Olson, upheld the independent counsel law in a 7-1 decision (the sole dissenter was Justice Antonin Scalia). In 1992, the remains of Polish statesman Ignacy Jan Paderewski, interred for five decades in the United States, were returned to his homeland in keeping with his wish to be buried only in a free Poland. One year ago: In the first ruling by a federal appeals court on President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul, a panel in Cincinnati handed the administration a victory by agreeing that the government could require a minimum amount of insurance for Americans. Today’s Birthdays: Songwriter L. Russell Brown is 72. Actor Gary Busey is 68. Comedian Richard Lewis is 65. Rock musician Ian Paice is 64. Singer Don Dokken is 59. Rock singer Colin Hay is 59. Actress Maria Conchita Alonso is 55. Actress Sharon Lawrence is 51. Actress Amanda Donohoe is 50. Rhythm-and-blues singer Stedman Pearson is 48. Actress Kathleen Wilhoite is 48. Producer-writer Matthew Weiner is 47. Musician Dale Baker is 46. Actress Melora Hardin is 45. Rap DJ Shadow is 40. Country musician Todd Sansom is 34. Singer Nicole Scherzinger is 34.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Annie: I have been with “Jim” for eight years. We are in our 40s and have been through a lot together. When I moved in with him three years ago, two of his kids lived with their mother, and the older boy was in prison. I was supportive of Jim’s visits to “Lloyd” and also wrote letters myself. Lloyd got out of prison 18 months ago and was paroled to our home. He is not supposed to frequent bars, but his drinking has increased, and he constantly violates the terms of his parole. Two months ago, he was arrested for public intoxication and spent the weekend in jail. He had to wear an ankle monitor for 30 days. Lloyd refuses to abide by our curfew. He wakes us up when he strolls in drunk at 3 a.m. Twice he left the refrigerator open and let the food spoil. He has kicked in our front door and broken numerous things, and now items have been disappearing. We’ve given Lloyd chance after chance. We pay all of his bills, including the one for his cellphone service. I’ve told Jim that Lloyd needs to respect our rules or find somewhere else to live. Jim keeps telling Lloyd to straighten up, but there are never any repercussions, so it never happens. I’m exhausted and can’t take much more. I don’t want to ruin my relationship with Jim. How do I proceed from here? -- Lost in Love Dear Lost: Jim thinks he is protecting his son, but unfortunately, he is only reinforcing Lloyd’s irresponsible behavior. The best thing for Lloyd would be to get a job (try the Safer Foundation at saferfoundation.org) and move into his own place. However, you won’t be able to encourage Lloyd’s independence without Jim’s support, so joint counseling is a good place to start. Also try Al-Anon (al-anon.alateen.org) for additional help. Dear Annie: I’m a 62-year-old widow and have no children. In the past three years, five people close to me died, leaving
me alone except for two nieces and one nephew, and none of them is speaking to me. When my husband passed, we had no money due to longstanding financial problems. Before my sister died, we were trying to work through her feelings about me. She never liked me and had a great deal of anger toward me. At the time, I was still having financial difficulties and could not attend her funeral or send flowers. My nephew offered to pay for the trip, but I didn’t feel comfortable accepting. I know I should have called, but I didn’t know what to say. By the time my mother died, my sister’s kids had pretty much ruled me out. I have written letters to them explaining the problems in our family. I have sent handmade presents to my nephew’s two little girls and mailed cheerful Christmas greetings, all to no avail. No thank-you notes. Nothing. I realize they may have “inherited” their mother’s feelings toward me, but I’m at the point where I’m ready to give up all contact. Is this the end? -- No Family Dear Family: We think your nieces and nephew are unhappy because you neither called nor sent a card when their mother died. We understand you were unsure of what to say, but your silence reinforced the negative impression they already had from their mother. You need to apologize. Beyond that, there are no guarantees. Please look for “family” among your friends. Dear Annie: “Sad Wife” is unhappy that her husband won’t look for anything better than his minimum-wage job. She has to put her child in day care so she can provide for her family. If she has to be “Mrs. Career,” he should be “Mr. Mom.” But right now, he has the best of both worlds. I bet if she ditches the day care and tells him to stay home, raise the baby and take care of the house, he’ll find a better job. -- Louisville Lady
