Woman tells police she crashed car to escape from abusive boyfriend By Gail OBer
THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
MEREDITH — A grand jury has indicted a Meredith man for felony reckless conduct, alleging he fired a gun in his house in an attempt to threaten his girlfriend. Robert Fennell, 26, of 43 Quarry road also facing four
separate misdemeanor charges of simple assault, false imprisonment, and two counts obstructing the reporting of a crime. According to affidavits submitted by Meredith Police, the department became aware of the argument when an officer responded to a car accident just after midnight on May 13 near
Moulton Farm and saw Fennell walking along the side of the road. Police said he reeked of alcohol. Police also found his girlfriend in a field off Quarry Road and said she was crying and hysterical. The woman, who also appeared to have been drinking, said she and Fennell
had been in a fight and he had both kicked and punched her. She told police he also fired a .22 caliber rifle inside the home and then hid the phone so she would be unable to call for help. When the woman attempted to flee to the neighbors and call for help, she told police Fennell see Crash page 6

NEW YORK (AP) — Speculation that governments in the U.S. and Europe will act to help their economies sent stocks surging to their best day this year. Atlanta Federal Reserve President Dennis Lockhart said in a speech that weak job growth over the past two months highlighted the “halting and tenuous” recovery. If the trend continues, “further monetary actions to support the recovery will certainly need to be considered,” he said. At the same time, news reports indicated that Germany and European Union officials were considering a plan to lend money from the European bailout fund to help rescue Spain’s hobbled banks. In an ordinary stock market, neither development would likely cause a ripple. But the market has been anything but ordinary lately, posting decline after decline amid the financial crisis in Europe and the slowing economy in the U.S. Traders now are hanging on rumors and speculation, said Jeff see STOCKS page 6

Democrats & most-conservative Republicans combine to block constitutional amendment on education funding in N.H. House CONCORD (AP) — Voters won’t be asked in November to decide whether state lawmakers should have more control over public school funding after a proposed constitutional amendment passed the Senate on Wednesday, but failed to win enough House votes to be placed on the ballot. The amendment to the state constitution needed to be passed with a three-fifths majority in both houses. In the House, it would have needed 237 votes, and it fell short twice in that chamber. The proposal, which had the backing of legislative leaders and Democratic Gov. John Lynch, would have specified that the Legislature has a responsibility to maintain a public education system, as well as full authority over state funding for it.
The state has been sending a base amount per pupil to all communities, funded by state taxes and a new state property tax, in response to a 1997 state Supreme Court ruling requiring it to provide all children with an adequate education. But lawmakers have been trying for years to nullify the ruling, and many considered this year the best chance at success. Supporters argued that the proposed amendment was necessary to allow the state to target aid to needy communities and to make it harder to challenge education laws in court. Rep. Michael Balboni, R-Nashua, noted that Wednesday was the 68th anniversary of D-Day, the Allied operation that paved the way for the end of the World War II, and described the compro-
mises that were part of it. “We, not with guns and bullets, but with the authority given to us by the people of New Hampshire, can set in motion a plan that will finally bring an end to the stranglehold placed on this great state by the Supreme Court,” he said. Others said they weren’t sure if they agreed with the amendment but said voters should be given a chance to decide in November. Any constitutional amendments that make the ballot must then be passed by twothirds of voters to take effect. “We are not enacting something we are submitting it to the people,” said Rep. David Hess, R-Hooksett, who urged his colleagues to approve the amendment not see ED FUNDING page 8
WASHINGTON (AP) — Gov. Scott Walker’s definitive victory in Wisconsin’s recall election is already reverberating in other state capitals. It exposed the shrunken political muscle of the unions that tried to oust him, underscoring their vulnerability to attacks from the right and inability to retaliate. Republicans in some nearby states where anti-union measures failed this year say they now plan to use Walker’s victory to mount renewed efforts in 2013. Instead of ejecting the Republican who slashed state and local government workers’ job benefits and bargaining rights, the
union-instigated recall has made Walker a heroic model for conservatives five months before the November election. “I think it’s bad news for the labor movement,” said John Russo, a labor studies professor at Youngstown State University. “It gives the impression they are not as strong as they once were, which they are not.” Labor leaders maintain that the fight was worth it, that the massive protests against Walker and bitter divisions it created will make other governors and legislators think twice before making similar forays against unions.
But Walker’s victory is encouraging Republicans in other states to push ahead with their own efforts to curtail unions’ power and chop away at the benefits gained for their members over the years. GOP lawmakers in states such as Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri and New Hampshire are likely to push harder for right-to-work legislation or other measures that restrict automatic union dues collection. No labor fight had so captivated Americans since President Ronald Reagan fired 11,000 air traffic controllers for illegally see UNIONS page 8

One ballot primaries are good for democracy My right-wing friend, ginned up (literally) from his team’s impending “victory” in Wisconsin, called me on Tuesday night. I took some of his glow off by noting that I, too, would have been hard-pressed to remove a governor who had committed no crime. Opposition to the recall did not necessarily signal affection for Gov. Scott Walker. Furthermore, I expressed my satisfaction in the electoral reforms being tried in California, changes that would weaken the partisan clubhouse in which my friend found political and social refuge. The Wisconsin vote was not one of those pointless Hatfield and McCoy affairs, though the out-of-state millions pouring in gave it that air. In addition to not wanting to replace a governor over policy differences, many voters sympathetic to public employees also felt that their extravagant pay and benefits had to be reined in. Politicians used the neutered terms “unaffordable” and “unsustainable” to justify their positions, but these obligations were also unfair to private-sector workers, who were getting nowhere that deal while having to pay for it. The decidedly liberal states of New York and Massachusetts also cut obligations to public employees without the inyour-face dramatics. No good comes from demonizing teachers, the most important members of our society. Meanwhile, political events of greater national significance were happening out west. California had joined Washington state, Louisiana and Nebraska in offering primary voters one ballot containing all the qualifying candidates’ names. In this system, the two contenders with the most votes end up on the November ballot. They could be two Republicans, two Democrats, two “others” or any combination of the above. With everyone voting, the hotheads would have a harder time forcing their litmus-tested candidates on the general electorate. Voters in November may have more appetizing choices than a Republican who doesn’t believe in birth control and a Democrat who thinks teachers should be able to retire at 53. While such primary voting systems sap the kingmaking powers
held by the bases of both parties, it most endangers the tea party and other Republican extremists. Democrats do have their radicals, but they’re not nearly as “out there” as the Republicans’. In any case, the far left has been largely marginalized by Democratic leaders. These changes could revive the dying breed of Republican moderates. Politicians have often been forced to disown modern science and mainstream social views to win primaries. With single-ballot primaries, they can both preserve their dignity and run in November. Here’s an example out of central California. Rico Oller, a Republican signer of the silly no-new-taxes pledge, was on the primary ballot for a state assembly seat. So was Republican Frank Bigelow, who supported certain spending. The firebrand Oller offered this revealing reason for opposing open primaries using a single ballot: “Delivering a moderate Republican who can work with the governor (Democrat Jerry Brown) is code for raising taxes.” Those are not universally held emotions, even among Republicans. Interestingly, business has been backing Bigelow and other Republican moderates because they want to end the partisan gridlock in state government. It appears that the two top votegetters in this generally conservative district were Oller and Bigelow. So come November, voters will have a choice between two different kinds of Republican rather than just a leftwinger and a right-winger. Meanwhile, Democrats and independents will have their say. Is this good for Democrats, who will probably have more Republicans to work with? Is it good for Republicans, who will be fielding more electable candidates in this very Democratic state? We shall see. But one thing seems obvious about the one-ballot primary: It’s good for the democracy. (A member of the Providence Journal editorial board, Froma Harrop writes a nationally syndicated column from that city. She has written for such diverse publications as The New York Times, Harper’s Bazaar and Institutional Investor.)
Sandy’s column was incomplete in its description of Buddhism To the editor, I thoroughly enjoy your newspaper, but was somewhat disheartened by your recent article (Leo R. Sandy column, June 5) on Buddhism. It was incomplete in its description of Buddhist philosophy, which spans many thousands of years and encompasses numerous different sects (just as Christianity has expanded to include the Mormons, Roman Catholics, Bap-
tists, etc.). As a practicing Nichiren Shoshu Buddhist, I have read extensively the profound writings of Nichiren Daishonin and would strongly suggest the author explore these writings. To suggest that the Vietnamese monk Thich Nhat Hanh and his writings represents the essence of Buddhism is rather misleading. Frank Karwoski Plymouth

LETTERS Just notified my health insurance going up 53%; thanks Obama To the editor, My wife and I bought our health insurance through Chesapeake back before Health Care Reform (Obamacare) was passed into law. It was a very basic plan that provided very little actual protection except for catastrophic coverage. Since we are part of no group, our premiums were very high, but we were happy to have it for the safety net it provided. Soon after Obamacare was enacted, Chesapeake notified us that they had decided to stop offering the plan due to “changes in the law” that would make it too expensive and unprofitable. They decided to just get out of that sector of the insurance business altogether... due to Obamacare. Supposedly, the big reason for Obamacare was to reign in these greedy profiteering insurance companies and help individuals get insured more easily and cheaply, so we were of course surprised to learn that companies like Chesapeake had actually been so close to unprofitable in the health insurance business that they’d drop out of it that easily, and to see that obtaining our own insurance was actually becoming harder and more expensive as a result of a law that was supposed to cause the opposite. So then we found a high-deductible plan with Anthem that allowed us to have a Health Savings Account. The premiums were about $550 per month and our deductible was $10,000. Seems very expensive for insurance that was almost never going to cover anything, but we could put about $6,000 into the HSA. It was less attractive and more expensive to us than the plan we had had with Chesepeake, but again, we were happy to have the safety net it provided. HSAs were a great idea to inspire personal responsibility and make health insurance affordable to individuals. The intent is that you can fund the account with pretax dollars to cover a good portion of your health plan’s deductible. It’s still your money that you earned, but since one can pay it into the HSA bit by bit, it feels like part of the premium and then if you have medical expenses, even though you are paying for them with your money, it feels like you are covered. But Obama did not like these accounts
either, for some reason, so Obamacare started limiting them and changing the rules to make them less beneficial. After all, why should us greedy people be allowed to pay for our own health care with pre-tax dollars? So again, even though it was supposed to be a law that inspired people to get health insurance and made having health insurance more affordable, we again saw Obamacare doing the exact opposite of what it had been sold to do. Then yesterday, I get a letter for Anthem. Even though they took in about $6,000 more from us in premiums than they had to pay out for the few benefits we used through the year, “the rising costs of providing the services now required by law” was forcing them to increase our premiums by a whopping 53-percent. Yes, you read that right... a 53-percent increase in one fell swoop. That’s almost as high as the increase in the prices of gasoline and heating oil we have suffered under this president... almost as high as our grocery bills have risen under him. Understand that this is not an increase because my wife and I are costing Anthem more money than they projected. We were not sick and did not have anything more than a few minor claims last year. This is an increase because of the services they are now forced to provide to others that my wife and I are being made to pay for. If it was 1 or 2-percent, I could understand, but there are that many people out there now getting free abortions, breast implants, and tummy tucks that it is driving my premiums up 53-percent? We had always carried insurance in case of the unforeseen disaster more than for the day to day... for a major illness that would have broken us. But since we can now wait and just buy insurance after we are diagnosed with cancer, heart disease, diabetes, etc... after my hip starts to go and needs replacement... after my wife needs a new kidney, and since the insurer cannot refuse us or charge us a higher premium and will need, under law, to cover us for those pre-existing conditions then, I’m thinking that it is time to start saving the thousands of dollars a year we have been wasting on health insurance premiums and see next page

LETTERS Lawns consume more water than all our agricultural crops To the editor, “Blades of Glory” was a full-page article in The Week magazine’s issue of July 1-8, 2011. It made these points: — Lawns are a product of 17th and 18th century European aristocracy, who relied on servants, sheep, and goats as mowers. — We love lawns; 80-percent of all American homes have lawns. — Sacrifices of time, energy, money, and natural resources go into lawn maintenance. — Lawns consume more water than agricultural crops. — Environmental damage comes from fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides, and fossil-fueled mowers that emit as much air pollution per hour as 11 cars. — There has been backlash to this damage, to a small degree. Some communities are replacing turf with indigenous planting. Lawns are banned in Las Vegas.
— Turf grasses are usually introduced species, not native. — Lawn care is a $40 billion/year industry in the United States. — The future of the lawn is in peril. — The federal government produces a “Noxious Weed List” because of our obsession with velvety green lawns. Our efforts have produced “superweeds” like cogon grass. The article does not mention the industrial groaning of mowers that blankets small rural towns as suburban mentality spreads. Golf courses are not mentioned. Grass does not allow biodiversity, or give protection from the wind or shade. Grass does not provide us with food, but takes up space suited to agriculture. But lawns provide jobs, and there’s nothing like the smell of a freshly cut lawn. Dick Devens Center Sandwich

Making all 11-B traffic stop before turning on to 11-A is crazy To the editor, Now, traffic from 11-B smoothly merges into traffic from 11-A. Our selectmen have a totally confused project: make a nice park on the land between Rt 11-A and 11-B. Okay, but then the stupidity jumps in: eliminate the smooth operating connection into a total disaster! Turning left onto 11-A has the problem of a left turn, into a blind corner, waiting for all other traffic to be clear. NOW our noble selectmen want to make ALL traffic from 11-B have to wait to turn right or left onto 11-A, until clear of traffic on 11-A, which is not easy NOR safe! To turn right or left at that
point means turning into or away from blind traffic from the left, a sure way to cause a major accident! Traffic in reverse flows smoothly now, with no problems. With the selectmen’s dangerous change, ALL traffic from 11-A heading to 11-B must STOP, block all traffic until a left turn is possible! How crazy can you get? We have one brilliant, useful selectman, one very nice one, and one who is always wrong. No need to say who is who. Let’s hope the brilliant and very nice one prevail, and keep that in intersection safe and sane. Jack Stephenson Gilford

Counterfeit bills said to be showing up at local stores with increasing frequency By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
GILFORD — According to Detective Christopher Jacques of the Gilford Police, the circulation of counterfeit currency in the town has increased since the end of April. And Police Chief Bob Cormier of Tilton said yesterday that the Secret Service of the United States Treasury Department is investigating a “spike” in the number of bogus bills passed in the Lakes Region. Jacques said that phony $20s, $10s and $1s have been reported by several retailers in Gilford, including CRASH from page one allegedly told her to “get back in the house or I’m going to shoot everybody.” After the argument, the woman said Fennell decided he wanted to go to the hospital and ordered the victim to take him there. En route, she said Fennell ordered her to return to the house so he could get some cigarettes. The woman said she started driving back to the house but accelerated, driving the car off the road in what she said was an attempt to get police
Walmart, CVS and Wendy’s. Captain Matt Canfield of the Laconia Police said that the department has had no formal reports of counterfeit bills, but Detective Scott Roy said there have been unconfirmed rumors that they have been circulating in the city. The Daily Sun has learned that a bogus $20 bill appeared in the till of a local restaurant and that a number of local stores and restaurants have begun checking $20s with a marker that distinguishes counterfeit from legitimate currency. Jacques said that most counterfeit bills are discovered by banks in cash
deposits made by businesses. Banks, he continued, generally report counterfeit currency directly to the Secret Service rather than the local police, since counterfeiting is a federal crime. Consequently, local law enforcement agencies may not be immediately aware of illicit currency in circulation. Cormier said that those found making a transaction with counterfeit currency are often themselves innocent victims of the fraud. He said that if a store clerk discovers a bogus bill, the innocent will not seek to flee. Nevertheless, he recommended that clerks note the date and time of the transac-
tion, since the last person to handle a counterfeit bill is the first link in the chain that law enforcement must seek to follow back to its source. Meanwhile, both Jacques and Cormier said that businesses should be alert to the passing of counterfeit bills and urged owners and employees to report incidents to the local police. Likewise, they suggested businesses can protect themselves by using markers, which with a stroke display a color indicating whether or not the money is genuine, or by passing the bill by a light that reveals the hidden watermark indicating authenticity.
to her location. She told police it was the only way she could think of to get out of the car and away from Fennell. Fennel was taken by ambulance to Lakes Region General Hospital and police described him as “combative” and said he needed to be restrained by straps and handcuffs during the trip. He was treated an taken to the Belknap County Jail. Police were able to retrieve a .22 caliber rifle from Fennell’s grandmother and after executing a search warrant,
police found “several” .22 caliber shell casings and unspent rounds. Police photographed the interior of the
house and documents holes in a bathroom wall and a shower consistent with those of a .22 caliber bullet.
STOCKS from page 2 Kleintop, chief market strategist at LPL Financial. But the talk was enough to convince some that the worst was over for now. As a result, the Dow Jones industrial average surged 286.84 points to close at 12,414.79, its biggest gain since December 20. The rally started early and gathered force in the afternoon. The charge turned the Dow Jones industrial average positive for 2012 and erased the biggest loss of the year less than a week after it happened: the 275-point plunge set off by a dismal U.S. jobs report on Friday. LPL Financial has started to pull back on bets against the S&P 500 and the euro. “We’ve decided it’s time to declare victory,” Kleintop said. “The next 10 percent move is not down, it’s up,” Kleintop said. In other trading, the Standard & Poor’s 500 rose 29.63 points to 1,315.13. The Nasdaq composite rose 66.61 points to 2,844.72. Companies whose stocks have been clobbered the most over the past month had the best gains. Homebuilders rallied, helped by a strong earnings report from Hovnanian Enterprises and rising applications for new mortgages. Hovnanian’s CEO said he sees signs that the housing industry may be entering the early stages of recovery. The Mortgage Bankers Association reported that applications for
mortgages rose 1.3 percent last week, largely a result of more people trying to refinance their existing loans. Hovnanian leapt 18 percent. PulteGroup Inc. surged 7 percent and Lennar Corp. 4 percent. The gains were spread across the market. Only 11 companies in the S&P 500 dropped, and every industry group in the index rose, led by energy and financial companies. Roughly seven stocks rose for every one that fell on the New York Stock Exchange. Jim Russell, chief equity strategist at U.S. Bank Wealth Management in Cincinnati, Ohio, said it’s natural for the market to have a strong day after an extended beat-down. On such days, it’s usually the companies that were hit the hardest that fare best. “In market language, it’s called a technical bounce,” he said. “There’s no bad news today, so the market goes up. Frankly, it’s that simple.” U.S. markets followed major European indexes higher. Indexes rose 2.4 percent in the U.K. and France. Borrowing costs eased for Spain, another positive sign. A Federal Reserve survey showed growth across the country. Hiring was steady, according to the Fed’s “Beige Book.” That’s in marked contrast to the government’s monthly jobs report, which said employers added the fewest jobs in a year last month.

MUSKRATS from page one practice yesterday. He follows his prospects through the college baseball season, checking box scores to keep abreast of their progress .”There have been lots of phone calls and e-mails, but this the first time I’ve met them all in person and seen them all in action.” Recruiting, he explained, “all comes down to your connections.” Crane, who pitched at the University of Massachusetts and coached at Spartanburg Methodist College in South Carolina, has drawn heavily on his relationships with college coaches in the South as well as the Northeast. He also draws on community and junior colleges for talent. “They play with a chip on the shoulder, maybe because they feel they’ve been overlooked,” he said. “For them the NECBL is an opportunity and many of those who play in the league move up to Division I schools.” “Coaches want to send their players to situations they trust,” Crane said, “where they know they’re going be with a good host family, eat right, stay healthy and play under good conditions.” Despite thorough scouting and recruiting process, Crane said that between the end of the college season and the start of summer baseball spots open on the roster. Bijan Rademacher, a switch-hitting outfielder who delivered three game-winning hits for the Muskrats last year, was expected to return until he was taken in the 13th round of the Major League draft by the Chicago Cubs. Three pitchers are recovering from injuries suffered during the college season. “I’m confident of filling the spots,” Crane said. “There will be players who expected to be drafted who were not or who were not drafted as high as they expected who will be available.” For instance, he was surprised not to lose Marcus Davis, an outfielder from Walters State Community College in Tennessee who hit above .400 this season, to the draft. Nor was he concerned about finding three arms to complete the pitching staff. “We have a lot of guys we think can start,” Crane said. “Coach (Matt) Alison will have some decisions to make.” He pointed to two freshmen infielders from Vanderbilt — Connor Castellano and Vicente Conde — who both started, Castellano at second base and designated hitter and Conde at third base, for a team that reached the NCAA regional playoffs. “Last year Will Johnson, who had just three at bats at Vanderbilt, led our team in hits and home runs and was an All-Star,” Crane said he looked to Davis and Danny Collins, a third baseman from Troy University in Alabama, to lend punch to the batting order. Dylan Kelly of Middle Georgia College, who won his conference batting title as a freshman before being named to the All-Star team, and Corey Stringer, who is headed to the University of
Tyler Raymond, a first baseman from the University of Kentucky, began making the adjustment from metal to wooden bats in the batting cage at Robbie Mills Field as the 2012 edition of the Laconia Muskrats tuned up to open the season against the Bay Sox in New Bedford, Massachusetts tonight. (Laconia Daily Sun photo/Michael Kitch)
Nebraska after two seasons at Fort Scott Community College in Kansas, join Bennett to complete an impressive corps of catchers. Crane said that despite having to fill three spots, he is pleased with the depth of the pitching staff, which will be be coached by former Gilford High School standout Luke Demko, who just completed his first year coaching the pitchers at Fort Scott Community College. “The pitching looks real good,” Demko said yesterday. Crane said that the team will carry 15 pitchers. He anticipated Alison to rotate six starters and was especially excited to have four proven closers in the bullpen. Righthander Mark Leiter, Jr. of the New Jersey Institute of Technology, whose father Mark pitched 11 seasons and uncle Al pitched 19 seasons in the major leagues, is slated to start against
New Bedford. Pitching for NJIT, he led the Great West Conference in strikeouts in 2011 with 103 in 90 innings and last summer was an All-Star with the Amsterdam Mohawks in the Perfect Game Collegiate Baseball League. Kyle Mullen of St. Joseph’s College in Philadelphia, another righthander, is scheduled to pitch the home opener. he was named to the Atlantic-10 all-conference team after compiling a record of five wins and no losses with an earned run average of 1.99 in 2012. As players stepped into the batting cage and patrolled the outfield yesterday, the loudspeaker reeled off the players as they were selected in the ongoing Major League draft. Now and then a Muskrats player would remark on a name he recognized. The roll call provided the music on what for eight weeks of summer will be a field of dreams.
Marine Patrol declares Silver Lake a ‘No Wake Zone’ due to high water TILTON — Pursuant to state law, N.H. Marine Patrol has instituted a “No Wake? order encompassing all of Silver Lake in the towns of Tilton and Belmont. This order will remain in effect until the lake level drops below 467.0 feet above sea level. The gauge at the Department of Environmental

Most Belknap Co. reps with majority on 3 constitutional amendment votes BY MICHAEL KITCH THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
CONCORD — The 18 members of the New Hampshire House of Representatives — all Republicans — yesterday voted overwhelmingly in favor of three controversial constitutional amendments. The county delegation endorsed CACR-6, to require a supermajority of three-fifths of the Legislature to increase any tax or fee, by a margin of 15 to 2, with only Representatives Peter Bolster of Alton and Alida Millham of Gilford dissenting and Representatives Harry Accornero and Bob Luther not voting. Representatives Don Flanders, Bob Kingsbury and Frank Tilton of Laconia, Robert Malone and Jeffrey St. Cyr of Alton, Guy Comtois and Elaine Swinford of Barnstead, Jim Pilliod of Belmont, Dave Russell of Gilmanton, Bob Greemore and Colette Worsman of Meredith, Tyler Simpson of New Hampton, and Dennis Fields and Bill Tobin of Sanbornton all voted with the majority. The amendment carried both the House and Senate by the necessary three-fifths majority and will appear on the general election ballot in November. CACR-13, prohibiting the introduction of a personal income tax, also carried both chambers by the necessary three-fifths majority. Among the county delegation, only Representa-
tives Millham and Pilliod dissented. Representatives Accornero, Flanders, Kingsbury, Luther, Tilton, Malone,St. Cyr, Comtois, Swinford, Russell, Greemore, Worsman, Simpson. Fields and Tobin all endorsed the prohibition. Although CACR-12, granting the Legislature discretionary authority over funding public education, fell 13 votes short of the necessary threefifths majority, it was support by 14 members of the 17 voting members of the county delegation as only Bolster, Comtois and Malone voted nay. Representatives Flanders, Kingsbury, Luther, Tilton, Bolster, St. Cyr, Millham, Swinford, Russell, Greemore, Worsman, Simpson, Fields and Tobin. Accornero did not vote. Senators Jim Forsythe of Strafford, whose district includes Laconia and the towns of Alton, Barnstead, Belmont, Gilford, Gilmanton and Tllton in Belknap County, and Jeanie Forrester of Meredith, whose district includes Meredith, Center Harbor and Sanbrnton in the county, both voted for amendments to require a three-fifth majority to increase taxes and fees and to prohibit introducing a personal income tax. Since the amendment addressing school funding failed in the House it did not come before the Senate for a vote.
ED FUNDING from page 2 because it was perfect but because it was “possible.” But Rep. Andrew Manuse, R-Derry, likened the amendment to “waving the white flag of defeat” and admitting the court was correct. He said lawmakers should hold out for a better constitutional amendment. “I’m raising the battle flag right here, right now,” he said. Some opponents said it would allow the state to walk away from education funding, while others feared it would force the state down the road toward higher taxes. That alone was reason to reject the amendment, said Rep. Steve Vaillancourt, R-Manchester, who said he could argue against the amendment from both conservative and liberal perspectives. “The very fact that I could debate
myself is an indication that this is not the amendment we need,” he said. Including the word “responsibility” in the amendment was key to getting the support of Lynch, a Democrat. Though he has no direct role in proposed constitutional amendments by either signing or vetoing them, Lynch’s support was seen as key to getting enough Democrats to back it and get it through the House. But just one Democrat voted for the measure in the House’s first vote, which was 244-144, and none voted for it the second time, when the vote was 224-141. In the Senate, where the measure passed 17-6, Senate President Peter Bragdon said he was disappointed by the House action. “We will try again next year to allow the people of New Hampshire to vote on this critical issue,” he said.
UNIONS from page 2 striking in 1981, a move that encouraged businesses to take tougher stands against unions and helped precipitate a steep decline in union membership. “I consider it bigger than the air traffic controllers,” said Gary Chaison, a professor of industrial relations at Clark University in Worcester, Mass. “I think it’s going to embolden employers in bargaining and discourage workers from joining unions. I think it’s hitting unions on all fronts.” Republicans in some states near Wisconsin are paying attention. “Not only is there the momentum in favor of the kinds of reforms that Governor Walker advocated for and got passed, but there becomes a competitive issue,” said Minnesota state Sen. Dave Thompson, a Republican who’s sponsoring an amendment to
his state’s constitution to make Minnesota a right-to-work state. “It becomes harder for places like Minnesota to compete economically with states that make positive reforms that benefit the business climate and make life easier on taxpayers,” Thompson said. In Missouri, state Sen. Dan Brown is hoping the Wisconsin recall results will encourage the Legislature’s large, yet reluctant GOP majorities to move forward next year with bills limiting some union powers. Brown wants to pare back mandatory wages on public works projects and halt the perpetual deduction of union dues from public employee paychecks by requiring annual written authorization. After Republicans swept to power in dozens of state legislatures in 2010, unions have spent millions battling see next page

Work Out Laconia! encourages 30-minutes a day LACONIA — For a half hour yesterday morning, the Opechee Park track area looked a lot like the busiest and most diverse gym in the world. With aerobics in one area, hula hoops in another and Zumba in yet another area, city residents of all ages and walks of life joined together for 30 minutes of heart pumping exercise. On one side of the oval, Hannaford Supermarket had a spread of fresh fruit and water for the nearly 1,000 participants. “What’s most exciting about this is it’s a very purposeful way to engage the communities and participate in exercise and good diet,” said Asst. School Superintendent Terri Forsten, herself a long-distance runner.
“Workout Laconia” is a combined effort from the Laconia Schools — all of them were represented — the Lakes Region Partnership for Public Health and the Department of Parks and Recreation, as well as a number of private companies: Laconia Athletic & Swim Club, All My Life Jewelers, Summit Health and Hannaford Supermarkets. “We know that as a nation we struggle with obesity and we wanted to take this opportunity to bring the community together,” Forsten said. The goal of Workout Laconia is to get every resident on every day to participate in at least one-half hour of exercise. — Gail Ober

They were already smarting this year after Indiana became the first state in a decade to pass right-to-work legislation and Michigan banned automatic deduction of union dues from teacher paychecks. Their loss in Wisconsin far overshadowed the unions’ biggest political win in the past year, when Ohio voters last November struck down in a referendum a law pushed by Republican Gov. John Kasich curbing col-
lective bargaining rights for public workers. Public employee unions suffered two more losses Tuesday in California. Voters in San Diego approved a ballot measure that imposes a six-year freeze on pay levels used to determine pension benefits for city workers. A measure approved in San Jose requires city employees to pay up to 16 percent of their salaries to keep their retirement plan or accept more modest benefits. see next page

Durgin verdict stands; sentencing is Monday LACONIA — After hearing arguments that no reasonable juror could have believed the state’s key witness to the beating and kicking death of a local man, Judge James O’Neill has upheld Jason Durgin’s conviction for second degree assault and negligent homicide. Durgin, who was convicted last month of punching and then kicking his house guest Leo LaPierre with such ferocity that he died a week later of his injuries, will be sentenced in Belknap County Superior Court on Monday morning. After citing relevant New Hampshire and Ohio precedents, O’Neill said the “court finds that the state appropriately carried its burden of persuasion in the defendant’s trial.” “Ms. (Tracy) Hebert testified she witnessed the defendant punch Leo from preceding page AFL-CIO political director Mike Podhorzer said unions should get more credit for the Ohio win and for collecting nearly 1 million signatures to initiate the Wisconsin recall. Walker and his supporters spent $47 million — compared with Democrats’ $19 million — to counter a strong union ground game that pushed voter turnout to levels usually seen during presidential contests. “This is not an experience many politicians want to go through,” Podhorzer said. Still, the turnout effort fell short of producing the unions’ hoped-for results. Exit polls showed voters from union households breaking 63 percent to 37 percent for Democratic Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett. That’s virtually the same as in the 2010 governor’s race, even though union households represented a bigger greater share of the electorate this time. Walker had convinced his Republican-dominated Legislature that limiting collective bargaining rights and making union members pay more for their health coverage and pensions

Finally she testified that she saw the defendant drag Mr. LaPierre to a fence outside the residence,” wrote O’Neill. He went on to outline the corroborating testimony of a third of Durgin’s house guests plus the photographs and physical evidence presented at trial. “The a great amount of probative evidence supports the jury’s verdict.” O’Neill concluded. LaPierre was found a year ago, dying in the yard of the South Main Street mobile home Durgin had been allowing him to stay in. — Gail Ober
was necessary to plug a $3.6 billion state budget shortfall. Labor leaders claimed he also wanted to cripple unions by banning automatic dues deduction for public employees. Since the new Wisconsin law took effect, the state’s second largest union, the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, has lost nearly half of its members in the state, according to internal documents obtained by The Associated Press. The documents show that between March 2011 and February 2012, Wisconsin membership in AFSCME dropped from 63,577 to 34,942. As national union membership has dwindled to just 11.8 percent of the workforce, the one growth area in recent years has been among teachers, firefighters and other government employees. Public sector workers now represent more than half of all union members. Some governors may be reluctant to create the kind of stark divisions seen in Wisconsin, said Nelson Lichtenstein, director of the Center for the Study of Work, Labor and Democracy at the University of California, Santa Barbara.

Shaker survey of risky behavior finds economy a factor in students’ depression BY MIKE MORTENSEN FOR THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
BELMONT — Going through adolescence during this time of economic uncertainty is significantly adding to the anxiety of many of today’s teenagers, and that reality is showing up in latest Youth Risk Behavior Survey, according to guidance officials in the Shaker Regional School District. One finding in that survey taken among students at Belmont High School showed that 29-percent of the students felt so hopeless or depressed for two or more weeks within that past year that it affected their ability to carry on with normal daily activities. “The economy and the recession have made it a perfect storm,” said Jennifer Gagnon, who regularly deals with at-risk students at Belmont High and Middle schools in her capacity as the district’s students assistance program provider. Brenda Seiferth, the Shaker District’s guidance director, agrees. “In the past kids were only generally aware of their parents’ financial situation. (But now) kids are really worried. Maybe they have lost their home or someone has lost a job,” she said. For Gagnon and Seiferth this development is troubling because feelings of hopelessness and depression can increase the likelihood of these young people contemplating suicide. The finding regarding hopelessness/depression is one of three particularly troubling results of the statewide Risk Behavior Survey conducted in 2011, the results of which were reported to the Shaker School Board recently. The other areas of special concern are the use of prescription drugs, and the incidence of bullying. Seiferth and Gagnon say that wherever the survey shows that Belmont High students score 5-percent higher or greater than the state or county average in any of the at-risk categories the school district’s goal is to respond with some initiative to address the issue. That is particularly true in the area of suicide
prevention. Though no Belmont High students has committed suicide, Seiferth points out, it is important to have programs and procedures in place to assist students who may be going through a difficult point in their lives. Grant funds have been used to provide training for school staff members on ways to recognize behaviors which often point to profound sadness by a student and then get that student to a counselor who can offer assistance. The second part of the program has been to develop procedures to follow if ever there is a sudden death of a student, so the other students can get help they need to better cope with the tragedy. The staff members who participated in the training workshops have since shared what they learned with other teachers and school staff members in an effort to make them better able to deal with problems proactively, Gagnon said. Another recent initiative was to bring in a motivational speaker to speak to students and parents about constructive ways young people can experience the kind of exhilaration that they so often crave and in the quest of which for some leads to risky behavior. But while Seiferth said that though the survey is conducted among students and administered by the school, the public has to realize that the problems it brings to light are not really school problems. “This is not a school issue. This is a community issue. We are reporting on a community issue,” she said. That is why this summer the school will use the results of the latest survey to enlist the involvement of various community resources, such as police departments, faith leaders, and counseling services. In addition, the results of the survey will soon be posted on the Shaker District’s web site and portions of the survey will also be mailed to parents with their child’s spring term report card. While Seiferth and Gagnon say that the findings that 29-percent of student report being terri-
bly hopeless or depressed, that 38-percent reported being bullied on school grounds, or that 25-percent had reported abusing prescription drugs are serious concerns, they said the survey also shows an important hopeful sign: More students are now acknowledging that such activity is harmful. “In order to get kids to change you have to change attitudes. And this shows that attitudes are changing. Our task is to do what we can to help them see that they need to change their behavior, too” said Gagnon. The survey showed a drop in some categories of at-risk behavior, including alcohol use and, highrisk sexual activity, and sexual activity by those 12 years of age or younger. But in this time when students are under greater stress, Seiferth and Gagnon are worried that there is so little in the way of community services to help those young people. Last month alone, Gagnon said that she dealt with 45 Belmont High students who were particularly susceptible to some form of at-risk behavior. “We do not have the community resources to deal with kids with alcohol or drug abuse,” said Gagnon. “There is no in-patient treatment unless it is courtordered. And private insurance won’t cover that kind of treatment, so therefore parents usually can’t afford it.” But regardless of the shortage of community services Seiferth said there is one service which troubled students or their parents can turn to: the National Suicide Prevention hotline, 1-800-273TALK (8255). Going forward Seiferth said the school district plans to enlarge its advisory program so that one adult school worker has regular contact with 10 or 11 students on a regular basis so that the troubling behavior may be spotted before it can develop into something more serious, and potentially injurious. Also the district is applying for grant funds that would allow it to hire two more counselors to work with at-risk students.

Towns make their case that House redistricting doesn’t pass constitutional muster before N.H. Supreme Court CONCORD (AP) — New Hampshire should create a House redistricting plan that allows smaller communities to have their own representatives, just like voters asked for when they approved a change to the state constitution six years ago, a lawyer said Wednesday. That presents a challenge in a small state that already has 400 House members, Martin Honigberg said. “No one has 400 districts on a population of 1.3 million. No one,” he said in arguments before the state Supreme Court on Wednesday. “And that makes it extremely complicated. And the ability to redistrict and maintain perfect equality — or as equal as the circumstances admit — is virtually impossible.” Honigberg represents about 20 town and city wards that argue they should have been given their own seats under the plan approved by lawmakers. He asked the justices to declare the current plan unconstitutional and let the lawmakers go back to the table. He noted that voters in 2006 changed the state constitution to allow for smaller New Hampshire House districts. Honigberg noted that the Legislature had to consider federal constitutional provisions in determining district populations. But he said such those provisions have been successfully challenged in the past in other states. Honigberg said New Hampshire’s House members believed they had no choice and that their hands were tied by the federal provisions, but that isn’t the case. But lawyer David Vincinanzo, who represents the House, said having them go back to the table could lead to a “presumptively unconstitutional plan,” given the wishes of the communities challenging the plan. This isn’t the first time the state Supreme Court has been involved in a redistricting dispute. The 2006 state
constitutional amendment reversed a 2002 ruling by the court that had established House and Senate districts when lawmakers deadlocked on redistricting plans. States redraw voting districts at least every 10 years to adjust for population changes. “We’re not going to create a plan,” Chief Justice Linda Dalianis said. “We did that 10 years ago, and nobody liked it.” She later added, “It’s like pushing soap bubbles around a bath tub. We’re not going to create a plan.” But it was unclear how the dispute could be resolved, especially with the state primary elections in September and the general election in November. Vicinanzo said it would be very problematic if the court tells the Legislature to come up with a new plan. “I don’t think that there is time ... there’s no guarantee it gets done. And it may come back to you,” he said to the justices. Associate Justice Carol Ann Conboy said presumably, time should not be a factor in determining whether a plan is constitutional. “That cannot drive the analysis,” she said. The House plan would create more than 200 new districts, nearly doubling the number that exists now. Democratic Gov. John Lynch vetoed it, arguing that it’s unconstitutional because dozens of towns and city wards that have sufficient population to get their own representative would not get one, but the Republican-controlled Legislature overrode his veto. Five lawsuits are challenging the new districts. In addition to the towns represented by Honigberg, separate challenges were filed by the cities of Concord and Manchester, the town of Gilford and a group of lawmakers. Both cities object to having one of their wards combined with neighboring towns with which they have little in common.
Legislature passes 1 anti-tax initiative, rejects another
CONCORD (AP) — New Hampshire voters will be asked in November to enshrine the state’s lack of a personal income tax in the state constitution, but they won’t get to weigh in on whether any bills to raise taxes should require a supermajority vote in the Legislature. The House and Senate voted Wednesday on two proposed constitutional amendments involving taxes. Both chambers passed a proposal that would add a ban on personal income taxes to the constitution, but another that would require a 60 percent of lawmakers to pass increases in taxes or fees fell short in the House. New Hampshire is one of nine states that do not tax personal income, though it taxes interests and dividends. Supporters argued that keeping it that way was key to preserving the “New Hampshire advantage” — a tax climate that has helped New Hampshire weather the economic recession better than other states. Rep. Stephen Stepanek, R-Amherst, noted that many lawmakers campaigned on a promise to oppose any broad-based sales or income tax. “I ask you now to take the pledge one more time ... and allow the citizens of New Hampshire to send a clear message that the New Hampshire advantage is not only alive and well but will live on for future generations,” he said. Rep. Susan Almy, D-Lebanon, opposed the bill, saying businesses ultimately will bear the burden if
future lawmakers increase existing taxes. “I thought you were business-friendly. Do you know what you’re doing?” she asked. “I don’t think you do.” The proposed amendment must receive the support of two-thirds of voters in November to take effect. The second amendment would have required a three-fifths majority in the Legislature to pass any tax or fee increases or to approve borrowing. It failed in the House on a vote of 220-132; it needed at least 237 votes. In the Senate, which passed the measure 14-9, Sen. Raymond White, R-Bedford, called it a good disciplinary measure for lawmakers. “It’s not that high of a hurdle,” he said. “It’s just human nature to want to spend money to fix problems, and maybe we leave fiscal discipline behind a little bit.”

Weaving workshop Saturday at Ramblin’ Vewe GILFORD — Shepherd’s Hut Market, located at the Ramblin’ Vewe Sheep Farm, 637 Morrill Street, will host a Weaving Workshop on Saturday, June 9 from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. Owner Joyce Keyser says attendees will be able to see weaving demonstrated, view various methods of weaving, and work on their own small woven item. From peg looms to floor looms, weaving is an ancient craft that has a long history. A variety of looms will be at the farm on June 9 for viewing, and some will be set up to try. “This is a great opportunity for folks to learn about weaving, an industry that had existed for many generations in our area. Laconia’s history includes the production of woven items at the Laconia Mill, but on a smaller scale, many people wove many of their materials and household items right at their homes. The craft still exists, and I would love to see more people invest their time in learning the craft,” says Keyser. Mary Ellen Boudman and Diane Ackerman will be
at the farm to explain the basics of weaving and guide people in trying out several looms that will be set up. Boudman is a retired visual arts teacher who actively volunteers for a number of organizations, including doing art projects with Bhutanese refugee families and at the county jail women’s program. She will be bringing a variety of looms to the Shepherd’s Hut Market, and has donated peg looms and warp to the market for teaching and demonstrating basic weaving to youngsters and adults alike. Ackerman will be using a table top loom to demonstrate weaving. She produces very fine towels, table runners, totes and more. Currently her items are available at the Shepherd’s Hut Market. She is planning to have a floor loom set up to try for those participating in the workshop. Everyone attending should be able to take home a creation of their own. Register by calling Joyce at 527-1873 or 393-4696. There is an $8 fee to cover the cost of materials.

White water release scheduled for Winnipesaukee River this weekend TILTON — It will be an exciting weekend for white water enthusiasts thanks to the NH Department of Environmental Services (DES) which has scheduled a weekend long water release June 9-10 on the Winnipesaukee River. Friends of the Winnipesaukee River, the Merrimack Valley Paddlers and the American Whitewater Association have long advocated for scheduled summer releases for white water paddlers on the Winnipesaukee River. Having a scheduled summer white water release picked up momentum due to the success of the Annual New Year’s Day Paddle on the Winnipesaukee River which attractss boaters and spectators from far and wide. Over the past several years, The City of Franklin, Tilton Main St. Program, Choose Franklin, the Greater Franklin Chamber of Commerce, and the Franklin Business Development and Industrial Corporation have all passed resolutions calling on DES to work with the downstream communities to schedule a release. The Winnipesaukee River draws paddlers from around New England with two distinct sections of white water. The “Upper Winni” running from Route 140 to the Clement Dam (Downtown Tilton) attracts beginner and intermediate paddlers with its easy class I and II rapids and is perfect to learn and practice skills. The second section known as the “Lower Winni” runs from Cross Mill road to
downtown Franklin and offers Class III –IV white water for advanced to expert paddlers. This past January, DES Commissioner Tom Burack and some of his staff had a tour of the area which highlighted the work DES, as well as local groups and communities, have done to promote recreation along the Winnipesaukee River. These include the Winnipesaukee River Basin Project, recent upgrades to the Boat Ramp on Shaker Road in Northfield, Brownsfield clean-up sites in Tilton and Northfield, The Winnipesaukee River Trail and Riverfront Park in Tilton and Trestle View Park in Franklin which both include ramps for paddlers. Following the tour, they attended a meeting in Franklin with Mayor Ken Merrifield, Sarah Stanley from Choose Franklin and Ken Norton from Friends of the Winnipesaukee River as well as several other interested individuals. Discussions followed from that meeting and the time table was set for a scheduled release. Ken Norton of Friends of the Winnipesaukee River stated, “DES has been an important partner in many projects promoting the environment in our communities. They have seen how much Tilton, Northfield and Franklin have invested in promoting recreation along the Winnipesaukee River. We are thrilled they have scheduled this first white water release and hope it can build into an annual event. “

In a political economy, the voters must choose someone else to do the job. In Senate District 2, I believe I am that person.” The House Party will be at 27 Meredith Center Road in Meredith (across from the Lakeland School).

Get Fuzzy
By Holiday Mathis slow. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Strangely, taking on responsibility makes you feel lighter. The more people depend on you the less likely you are to give up. You gain strength and become capable of more. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ve been thinking and planning long enough. It’s time to jump in. You probably don’t feel completely prepared, and no one ever does. Get in motion anyway. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Thomas Jefferson advised, “When angry, count to 10 before you speak. If very angry, a hundred.” When frustration levels rise, hit the pause button, and they will fall just as quickly. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Only you know what pleases you the most. This is a day to slide through that conduit to happiness instead of taking one for the team or compromising for the pleasure of others. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You have a feeling that you can help people, and you’re right. The first one you should help is you. Test out your methods, and see whether they work. Keep track of the results. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 7). You get to know yourself better this year and discover what you really want in life. The next six weeks are experimental, and a series of temporary situations helps you understand what your next move has to be. An unusual education begins in August. November brings healing for your family. Aquarius and Sagittarius people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 30, 1, 24, 38 and 40.
TUNDRA
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Sometimes other people’s drama is hard to distinguish from your own drama, especially when those “other people” are your loved ones. Unless someone really needs your protection, stay out of it. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Even if the only person you’re competing with is yourself, it’s still not a fair game because you’re never the same person two days in a row. Competition isn’t the point. Showing up consistently to do your best is what matters. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The voice inside you, frankly, can be a bit of a bully if not kept in check. You’ll be more aware of your mental self-talk, and through that awareness, you’ll tame this harsh influence. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ve known true happiness before, and now you may feel like you’re chasing after it, powerless to bring it back. The answer is to stop chasing and start building. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your love of stories isn’t an indulgence; it’s a necessary part of your growth. A good book will suck you in, and you’ll never be quite out of it. It will become part of the way you see the world from now on. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Even if you wanted to, there are not enough hours in the day to reply to every call, letter, email and sales pitch that comes your way. Furthermore, you might be happier replying to none of them today. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). If you’re in a hurry, the first thing to do is slow down. This will prevent you from making mistakes -- and since you don’t have any time to lose, mistakes will be even more costly. Go fast by going

––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Thursday, June 7, the 159th day of 2012. There are 207 days left in the year. Today’s Highlights in History: On June 7, 1892, Homer Plessy, a “Creole of color,” was arrested and fined for refusing to leave a whites-only car of the East Louisiana Railroad; his case went all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court, which at the time upheld “separate but equal” racial segregation, a concept overturned in 1954 by Brown v. Board of Education. On this date: In 1654, King Louis XIV, age 15, was crowned in Rheims, 11 years after the start of his reign. In 1712, Pennsylvania’s colonial assembly voted to ban the further importation of slaves. In 1769, frontiersman Daniel Boone first began to explore present-day Kentucky. In 1776, Richard Henry Lee of Virginia proposed to the Continental Congress a resolution stating “That these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States, that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British Crown.” In 1862, William Bruce Mumford, a Confederate loyalist, was hanged at the order of Union military authorities for tearing down a U.S. flag that had been flying over the New Orleans mint shortly before the city was occupied by the North. In 1942, the World War II Battle of Midway ended in a decisive victory for American forces over the Imperial Japanese. In 1967, the Haight Ashbury Free Medical Clinic opened in San Francisco. In 1972, the musical “Grease” opened on Broadway, having already been performed in lower Manhattan. In 1981, Israeli military planes destroyed a nuclear power plant in Iraq, a facility the Israelis charged could have been used to make nuclear weapons. In 1998, in a crime that shocked the nation, James Byrd Jr., a 49-year-old black man, was hooked by a chain to a pickup truck and dragged to his death in Jasper, Texas. (Two white men were later sentenced to death for the crime; a third received life with the possibility of parole.) One year ago: Moammar Gadhafi stood defiant in the face of the heaviest and most punishing NATO airstrikes to date, declaring in an audio address carried on Libyan state television, “We will not kneel!” Today’s Birthdays: Movie director James Ivory is 84. Actress Virginia McKenna is 81. Singer Tom Jones is 72. Poet Nikki Giovanni is 69. Actor Ken Osmond (“Leave It to Beaver”) is 69. Former talk show host Jenny Jones is 66. Actress Anne Twomey is 61. Actor Liam Neeson is 60. Actress Colleen Camp is 59. Singer-songwriter Johnny Clegg is 59. Author Louise Erdrich is 58. Actor William Forsythe is 57. Latin pop singer Juan Luis Guerra is 55. Singer-songwriter Prince is 54. Rock singer-musician Gordon Gano is 49. Rapper Ecstasy is 48. Rock musician Eric Kretz is 46. Rock musician Dave Navarro is 45. Actress Helen Baxendale is 42. Actor Karl Urban is 40. TV personality Bear Grylls is 38. Rock musician Eric Johnson is 36. Actress Adrienne Frantz is 34. Actor-comedian Bill Hader is 34. Actress Anna Torv is 33.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Annie: I am 58 and have been married to “Hank” for 24 years. I have two children from a previous marriage, and Hank and I have a 21-year-old son together. I’ve tried everything to be a good wife, but Hank never has been affectionate, and our sex life is nonexistent. Several years ago, I learned that he has cheated on me for most of our marriage. My older son caught him the first time, and I made Hank move out. We went to counseling, and I let him come back home, although I believe the only reason he returned was because of our son. Recently, I received calls telling me Hank was cheating again, but he denied it. I finally hired a private investigator, who confirmed that Hank was having an affair. I told him to leave her alone and thought that would end it, but it didn’t. I discovered he has been seeing this woman for at least 12 years. I love my husband, but won’t tolerate sharing him anymore. I knew when we married that we weren’t soul mates, but I felt we could have a good marriage. Hank knows if he leaves, his son will despise him and he won’t be able to see the grandchildren. Should I talk to the Other Woman and ask her to stop seeing him? What do I do? -- Desperate in Indiana Dear Indiana: Contacting the Other Woman will not produce the result you want: for Hank to stop cheating. He is unhappy in his marriage and thinks this gives him license to ignore his wedding vows. It does not. But you are also unhappy, twisting yourself into knots, trying to make Hank a faithful, loving husband. It isn’t working. Get some counseling. Find out what it’s worth to you to keep your marriage intact and what your next step should be. Dear Annie: My daughter and son-in-law had a little celebration for my grandson’s first birthday. The baby gets fussy in big crowds, and their house is small, so they decided to
invite only the grandparents. Several days after the party, I received an angry email from a niece stating, “How nice it would have been to actually have been invited to the party.” She copied all of my relatives. I responded, explaining why the guest list was so small, and chastised her for complaining in front of the entire family. Then her mother (my husband’s sister) sent an email chewing me out, saying she and her husband were hurt because they weren’t invited, either, and accused me of “attacking” my niece. My brother-in-law sent my daughter a text message saying the same thing. I apologized to my niece for chastising her, but I was thoroughly annoyed. I don’t think my daughter and son-in-law did anything wrong by keeping the party small. I feel these relatives were very rude. How could we have handled this situation better? -- Fed Up in Cornwall, Pa. Dear Fed Up: Your daughter did nothing wrong. Your niece and her parents are thin-skinned and hypersensitive. You could have replied, “We’re so sorry you felt slighted. It was not intentional. Only grandparents were invited.” Then ignore them. Dear Annie: “Bob” was unhappy that his stepchildren don’t call him “Dad.” You failed to give Bob your usual good advice: to get a complete medical checkup. Bob said he is withdrawing from family members who love him and waking up at 3:30 a.m. feeling despondent. I happen to know that an underactive thyroid can cause those symptoms, and few doctors check that in men. -- R. Dear R.: Thank you so much for mentioning this possibility. Other readers pointed out that Bob’s obsessive focus on his title could indicate depression. We love how our readers look out for one another. We hope Bob will schedule a complete checkup soon and ask his physician to check for these things.
