LACONIA — Governor John Lynch was presented with the Fritzie Baer Award for his strong support of Laconia Bike Week during his eight years as governor at the annual pre-Bike Week press conference held at the Weirs Beach Lobster Pound Thursday morning.

‘’He’s pulled rabbits out of the hat to help us and has always been a great friend of Bike Week’’ said Charlie St. Clair, executive director of the Laconia Motorcycle Week Association, who said that Lynch was the first governor to personally attend the press conferences which kick off the annual event, now in its 89th year.

ATLANTA (AP) — Think your teen would never text while driving? More than half of high school seniors admitted in a government survey that they’ve done just that. It’s the first time the question was asked in a teen poll on risky behavior, and the finding comes amid a renewed federal crackdown on distracted driving. Texting and cellphone use behind the wheel is “a national epidemic,” Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood said Thursday. “We need to teach kids, who are the most vulnerable drivers, that texting and driving don’t mix,” LaHood said at a Washington news conference to announce pilot projects in Delaware and California to discourage distracted driving. In the survey, about 58 percent of high school seniors said they had texted or emailed while driving during the previous month. About 43 percent of high school juniors acknowledged they did the same thing. “I’m not surprised at see TEXT page 8

UN monitors shot at near site of Syrian killings BEIRUT (AP) — U.N. observers came under fire Thursday as they tried to reach the site of the latest reported mass killing in Syria — about 80 people, including women and children who were shot or stabbed. The deaths added urgency to diplomatic efforts to end the escalating bloodshed. As reports emerged of what would be the fourth such mass slaying of civilians in Syria in the last two weeks, the United States condemned President Bashar Assad, saying he has “doubled down on his brutality and duplicity.” U.N. patrols in Syria have on several instances been deliberately targeted with heavy weapons, armor-piercing ammunition and a surveillance drone, U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon told the Security Council, according to a senior

U.N. official. The official, speaking on condition of anonymity because Thursday’s council meeting was private, said Ban also reported repeated incidents of firing close to U.N. patrols, apparently to get them to withdraw. International envoy Kofi Annan, whose peace plan brokered in April has not been implemented, warned against allowing “mass killings to become part of everyday reality in Syria.” “If things do not change, the future is likely to be one of brutal repression, massacres, sectarian violence, and even all-out civil war,” Annan told the U.N. General Assembly in New York. “All Syrians will lose.” U.N. diplomats said Annan was proposing that world powers and key regional players, including Iran, come up with a new strategy to end the 15-month conflict

at a closed meeting of the Security Council that took place Thursday. Speaking to reporters after the meeting, Annan highlighted the urgency of taking action to diffuse the situation. Standing alongside Annan and League of Arab States Secretary General Nabil Elaraby, Ban echoed the sense of urgency. “The three of us agree: Syria can quickly go from a tipping point to a breaking point. The danger of full-scale civil war is imminent and real, with catastrophic consequences for Syria and the region,” Ban warned. Any proposal to resolve the situation, however, must be acceptable to Russia and China, which have protected ally from past U.N. sanctions, as well as the U.S. and its European allies, they said, speaking on condition of anonymity because consultations have been private.

Greek extremist party Ofﬁcials worry about stowaways on tsunami dock member in TV assault

ATHENS, Greece (AP) — Greece’s election campaign turned ugly Thursday on live TV: The spokesman of the extreme-right Golden Dawn party, after trading insults of “commie” and “fascist,” lunged at two female left-wing politicians on a mainstream morning talk show, throwing water at one and smacking the other three times across the face. The violent display reminiscent of trash TV, a week and a half ahead of crucial elections, stunned Greeks as they seek to avoid a catastrophic exit from Europe’s common euro currency. A prosecutor issued an arrest warrant for Ilias Kasidiaris, whose party alarmed Europe by gaining 21 of Parliament’s 300 seats in Greece’s inconclusive May 6 elections. Golden Dawn, which vehemently denies the neoNazi label, has been accused of violent attacks against immigrants in Athens. The party denies involvement in the attacks, insisting it is a nationalist patriotic group. It campaigned on a platform of ridding the country of illegal immigrants and cleaning up crime-ridden neighborhoods, and advocates planting anti-personnel mines along Greece’s borders to stop migrants from sneaking across. The attack “put on public display what was widely known,” said the radical left-wing Syriza party, whose member Rena Dourou was splashed with water on the show. “The true face of this criminal organization.” Tempers frayed on the daily morning political show on the private Antenna television station during a political debate, to which representatives of all seven parties that won parliamentary seats on May 6 had been invited. Discussion had turned to the country’s natural resources. But it went off on a tangent about political history in Greece, which suffered a vicious civil war between Communists and the right-wing after World War II, and a seven-year military dictatorship that ended in 1974.

When the tsunami hit the northern coast of Japan last year, the waves ripped four dock floats the size of freight train boxcars from their pilings in the fishing port of Misawa and turned them over to the whims of wind and currents. One floated up on a nearby island. Two have not been seen again. But one made an incredible journey across 5,000 miles of ocean that ended this week on a popular Oregon beach. Along for the ride were hundreds of millions of individual organisms, including a tiny species of crab, a species of algae, and a little starfish all native to Japan that have scientists concerned if they get a chance to spread out on the West Coast. “This is a very clear threat,” said John Chapman, a research scientist at Oregon State University’s Hatfield Marine Science Center in Newport, Ore., where the dock washed up early Tuesday. “... It’s incredibly difficult to predict what will happen next.” A dozen volunteers scraped the dock clean of marine organisms and sterilized it with torches Thursday to prevent the spread of invasive species, said Chris Havel, spokesman for the state Department of Parks and Recreation, which is overseeing the dock’s fate. The volunteers removed a ton and a half of material from the dock, and buried it above the highwater line, Havel said.

Biologists have identified one species of seaweed, known as wakame, that is native to Japan and has established in Southern California but has not yet been seen in Oregon, he said. While scientists expect much of the floating debris to follow the currents to the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, an accumulation of millions of tons of small bits of plastic floating in the northern Pacific, tsunami debris that can catch the wind is making its way to North America. In recent weeks, a soccer ball washed up in Alaska, and a Harley Davidson motorcycle in a shipping container was found in British Columbia, Canada. How the dock float — 165 tons of concrete and steel measuring 66 feet long, 19 feet wide and 7 feet high — turned up on Agate Beach, a mile north of Newport, was probably determined within sight of land in Japan, said Jan Hafner, a computer programmer in the University of Hawaii’s International Pacific Research Center, which is tracking the 1.5 million tons of tsunami debris likely floating across the Pacific. That’s where the winds, currents and tides are most variable, due to changes in the coastline and the features of the land, even for two objects a few yards apart, he said. Once the dock float got into the ocean, it was pushed steadily by the prevailing westerly winds, and the North Pacific current.

CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — Hundreds of patients at Exeter Hospital have been tested for hepatitis C as New Hampshire health officials continue to investigate an outbreak of the virus linked to the hospital’s cardiac catheterization lab. Health officials announced Wednesday that six more patients have tested positive for the virus, in addition to the four cases discovered last month. The hospital is now expanding its testing, asking

patients who received care at the lab and its recovery room between April 2011 and May 25 of this year to get tested. WMUR-TV reported Thursday that so far 316 test results have come back and 108 samples are still being tested. Dr. Jose Montero, state director of public health, says some patients who visited the lab recently may have to get tested again.

Walker changes attitudes on public employee unions The results are in, and Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker has beaten Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett in the recall election. That’s in line with pre-election polling, though not the Election Day exit poll. Even before the results came in, we knew one thing, and that is that the Democrats and the public employee unions had already lost the battle of ideas over the issue that sparked the recall, Walker’s legislation to restrict the bargaining powers of public employee unions. That’s supported by a Marquette University poll showing 75-percent of Wisconsin voters favoring increases in public employees’ contributions for health care and pensions. It also showed 55-percent for limiting collective bargaining for public employees and only 41-percent opposed. But the strongest evidence is that Barrett and the Democrats avoided the issue. They had tried to make the election about anything else, such as an investigation of staffers for Walker when he was Milwaukee County Executive. A defeat in a state where public employee union bargaining was authorized in 1959 has national implications. Unions spent $400-million in the 2008 election cycle to elect Barack Obama and other Democrats. More than half of all union members nationally are public employees. Public employee unions insist that dues money be deducted from members’ paychecks and sent directly to union treasuries. So in practice, public employee unions are a mechanism for the involuntary transfer of taxpayers’ money to the Democratic Party. Walker’s law ended this practice and gave public employees the choice of whether to pay union dues. The membership of AFSCME, the big union of state employees, fell from 62,818 to 28,785. That’s what liberal columnist E.J. Dionne was referring to when he wrote last week that Walker’s laws “sought to undermine one of the Democratic Party’s main sources of organization.” Dionne wants continued taxpayer financing of campaigns — for his side only. The battle of ideas in Wisconsin may have affected opinion nationally. The annual Education Next poll of opinion on teacher unions showed little change between 2009 and 2011, but this year the percentage with a positive view dropped from 29-percent to 21-percent. It dropped from 58-percent to

43-percent among teachers themselves. The case for public employee unions has never been strong. Franklin Roosevelt opposed them, and so did AFL-CIO founding President George Meany. Public unions’ institutional incentives are to increase pay and benefits, which costs taxpayers money, and to limit employee accountability, which tends to reduce the quality of public services. Union leaders claim they uphold professional standards. But aside from police and fire unions fighting dumbed-down hiring and promotion exams, it’s hard to find examples of this actually happening — much harder than finding incompetents and miscreants kept on the public payroll by their unions. Perhaps the weakness of the case for public employee unions kept Barack Obama from doing much to help them in Wisconsin. Or perhaps he was preoccupied by the faltering economy or fatigued by the six fundraisers he attended last Friday, when the dismal jobs numbers came out. Whatever the reason, Obama did fly over Wisconsin from a Minneapolis fundraiser to his home in Chicago. And on Monday, he tweeted his “backing” of Tom Barrett, although he didn’t use the full 140 characters. It’s not the first time Democrats have stiffed their union funders. Obama and Speaker Nancy Pelosi pushed House members to cast tough (in some cases career-ending) votes for cap-and-trade and Obamacare. But Obama didn’t push hard, or much at all, for the unions’ card-check bill, which union leaders hoped would enable them to reverse the long decline in private-sector union membership. Now the public employee unions are threatened. Walker’s victory in Wisconsin shows that the case against powerful public employee unions can be not only defended but advanced, in a state with a long progressive tradition, which has not voted Republican for president since 1984. That’s a lesson that may be taken to heart by governors, legislatures and voters in other states being pushed toward bankruptcy by union-negotiated benefits and pensions.

LETTERS Somehow, equal pay for equal work remains a partisan issue To the editor, Fair pay regardless of gender should not be a partisan issue. No candidate should be hard pressed to support of equal pay for equal work. Yet somehow, even after nearly a century since women gained equal voting rights, fair pay for women remains a partisan issue in this year’s presidential election — even as women make only $0.77 for every $1 a man makes. President Obama is laying the foundation for an economy that restores the values that make our country great, like fairness and opportunity. With women making up nearly half the workforce and increasingly becoming breadwinners in their families, President Obama knows equal pay for equal work is an economic issue for so many Americans. The first law he signed was the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, which provides women with stronger legal

rights to fight for pay denied to them for many years. Mitt Romney however, has refused to even say whether or not he would have signed that same law. And in his silence, he refuses to stand up to Washington Republicans who are challenging the Paycheck Fairness Act, which would improve existing law and help prevent pay discrimination from happening in the first place. President Obama wants to sign it into law. Mitt Romney refuses to even say whether he agrees or disagrees with it. Women have a choice in November. They can stand with President Obama, who believes that hard work should pay off and responsibility be rewarded for all Americans. Or they can stand by while Mitt Romney refuses to stand up — and speak out — for them. Mary Rybacki Laconia

I’d enjoy a debate on whether government should be charitable To the editor, You know readers, another letter in Tuesdays paper caught my attention. This was written by Cab Vinton in response to a letter from Gene Danforth. Gene wrote “that there has never been a government endowed with charity nor bureaucracy formed for its purpose.” Cab takes issue with that and sites the preamble to the U.S. Constitution to make his point. As I see it both are right but each is looking at different ideas related to the words. Perhaps I’m wrong but I think Gene was looking at the idea

that our government was only created to provide an environment where individuals could flourish but not that the government would be responsible to see that they did. I got from Cab’s letter that he feels that our government was created to make sure that everyone flourished. Perhaps I’m all wrong but what an interesting debate between these two gentlemen it would be if my take is right. I hope they will both respond to my interest, right or wrong. Steve Earle Hill

Youssef knows what it takes to encourage business growth To the editor, During this time of great instability in our state it is heartening to know that people like Josh Youssef are willing to accept the role of N.H. Senator. Josh is a successful businessman who knows first-hand what it takes to grow a small business here in N.H. If we are to extricate ourselves from this prolonged recession it will take persons of strength, experience, and integrity to represent us in Concord. Josh Youssef is such a person. He will

small, here in New Hampshire which is essential to the future of our state. His diverse family heritage also makes him the perfect candidate to tackle the tough immigration issues facing our state. Josh Youssef is a successful businessman, loving father, and man of impeccable integrity. I encourage everyone to consider and support Josh Youssef of Laconia for the N.H. Senate. Joseph L.

If we look beyond differences, major religions deliver like messages To the editor, I would like to thank Leo Sandy for Tuesday’s column about Buddhism. For one who has been following “The Way” for most of my life now, it was refreshing to see such an informative commentary for the public to enjoy and learn from. I agree that Buddhism (not a religion, but a philosophy of and a way of living life) is one of the world’s most peaceful, historically unchanged, and to date, uncorrupted or hijacked spiritual doctrines. I would also concur that all major religions of the world, at the pure and unaltered core, all teach congruent morals and values, peacefully. It is the unfortunate twisting of these doctrines by people and groups that wish to control and manipulate others that cause such strife and conflict, within and without. Although I do praise the eloquent manner in which Mr. Sandy delivered this relevant discourse, and I am happy that he has embraced the teachings, I would like to first graciously expound on three points, then finish with a few ruminations of my own, if I may beg your indulgences... Constantine made Christianity the official religion of Rome: It was actually Theodosius and Gratian in 380/381 AD whom finally recognized and sanctioned Christianity as the “official” religion of Rome, not Constantine. Constantine, of course, was the Roman Emperor, who through the Edict of Milan, granted religions tolerance to all Christians, ceasing persecution. He also sanctioned the first Christian church in Rome. He, however, did not convert right away, as the majority of Roman citizens (and the Roman army) was still Pagan. He furthered the Christian cause, but he did not make it official. It is speculated that Constantine did convert near his death, so that he would secure his son’s succession as emperor. Siddhartha: Siddhartha did not

actually found Buddhism; it just kind of grew. He never set out to start anything, nor did he ask for disciples, they just gathered, followed and perpetuated his teachings, liken to Jesus. When the young prince left the Royal Palace, he did so to simply become an ascetic. Siddhartha did just that, studying with many gurus over the years. After some time, he grew disillusioned with the traditional doctrines and he split to be on his own. Siddhartha did not do this to start his own camp, but to quite the outside influences within his mind and allow himself to ruminate existential questions on his own in solitude. Six years after Siddhartha left his home, he became enlightened while sitting beneath a Bodhi tree. It was at that time in which he became the Buddha — the enlightened one. Mr. Sandy does a fantastic job of outlining the basics of the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path, the tenets of Buddhism that Siddhartha birthed in meditation under that Bodhi Tree. Karma: Karma is a perplexing notion. It is my understanding that a true Buddhist does not agree with the Western adaptation of “good” or “bad” as it applies to Karma. To a Buddhist, all circumstance is neutral. Whatever meaning attributed is projected through personal perceptions. Again, there is neither good nor bad, only neutral — we attribute meaning. Karma is also not simply “what goes around comes around”. The situations in which we find ourselves are simply a result of our actions — this is true Karma. Karma does not guide us; we guide ourselves. Karma explains the results of our actions, and it is the force that binds those actions to our fate. Ultimately, actions create a circumstance. Karma is the logical consequential eventuality of action. If you are peaceful, noble and righteous in intent, than it follows see next page

Belmont’s Memorial Day ceremonies something to be proud of To the editor, The crowd may not have been huge but American pride and solemn remembrance was at the Belmont Memorial Day ceremony. As the son of a WWII veteran, I would like to express my great appreciation to the Belmont Veterans Associations who put together this Memorial Day parade and service. In the world today, many of us think of Memorial Day as just a “long weekend” and “great barbecues”. Belmont’s Memorial Day service brought the true spirit and reverence of the day to our weekend — remembering our veterans and fallen heroes. Having so many of our children and youth involved made it extra special. It is the next generation that will keep American pride alive. I would also like to recognize Ms. Lauren Fountain and the Belmont High School Band for helping to make the Belmont Memorial Day parade and ceremony a wonderful occasion. The band did a fantastic job bringing the spirit of patriotism to the event. Their performances of patriotic songs were spirited and exceptionally well played. Especially touching was the

performance of “Taps with Echo”. The trumpet players performed the song flawlessly and the echo effect of the second trumpet player was especially haunting as the melody drifted in from a distance in response to the first player. The Belmont Middle School and High School is especially fortunate to have found such a passionate and dedicated band leader in Ms. Fountain. Her commitment to the children and to excellence is obvious and inspiring. Our great appreciation to all the parade participants; the speeches by historian, Wallace Rhodes and our beloved veterans; prayers by our clergy; the wreath laying ceremony; the Girl and Boy Scouts; the commitment of our police, fire and emergency teams; and the professional musicianship of the Belmont High School Band. The entire Memorial Day ceremony should make all of the citizens of Belmont proud. Thanks to all for providing us such a wonderful, memorable and inspiring Memorial Day ceremony!

Belmont man indicted on charges of witness tampering, child endangerment in connection with alleged burglary By Gail OBer

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

BELMONT — A Union Road man was indicted by a grand jury for felony burglary and witness tampering for his role in an alleged house break-in on Horse Point Road on May 7. Michael Sweeney is also charged a misdemeanor count of endangering the welfare of a child for allegedly bringing his 12-year-old son along with him. A Laconia man is also accused of participating in the burglary. Two Belmont police officers were on foot patrol near the railroad tracks by Belmont Town Beach during the evening of May 7 when they heard people talking from inside a home they knew to be vacant. Sweeney and Walter Bond, 56, of 19 Jameson St. in Laconia were arrested as they left the home. The boy was given into the custody of a relative. According to affidavits in the N.H.

4th Circuit Court, Laconia Division, Sweeney faces an additional charge of witness tampering becasue he allegedly kept calling Bond at his Laconia home and allegedly kept trying to get Bond to “make a deal with each other about what they were going to say in court.” Laconia Police said Bond told them the calls began coming to Bond from Sweeney on May 11 and continued until May 17 when a Laconia Police Officer spoke with Bond who said Sweeney left him a voice mail message saying he wasn’t thinking clearly, they they didn’t do anything wrong and to “---- the cops.” On May 24, Bond flagged down a second police officer and reported that he was allegedly continuing to get pressured by Sweeney to change his story regarding the Belmont arrest and Laconia got a warrant to arrest him for the witness tampering. Both Sweeney and Bond are free on bail.

Correction: CACR failed in NH House An article in Thursday’s edition of the Laconia Daily Sun reporting the votes on three constitutional amendments before the New Hampshire Legislature contained two errors. First, it mistakenly reported that CACR 6, requiring supermajorities in the House and Senate to increase taxes and fees, will appear on the general election ballot in November. In fact,

the amendment carried the Senate but failed in the House. Second, it mistakenly reported that the Senate did not vote on CACR 12, addressing the funding pubic education. In fact, the Senate endorsed the amendment by a vote of 17 to 6 with both senators Jeanie Forrester of Meredith and Jim Forsythe of Strafford voting in favor.

RETIRE from page one John Egan and Brian Loanes, all retired police officers receiving pensions while holding full-time positions with Belknap County, that they must return their pension payments and pay the employee contributions to the system incurred while working for the county. All three employees and the county appealed. After negotiating with private attorneys and county officials for more than a year, on Wednesday the NHRS informed Ed Philpot, chairman of the county commission, that it has dropped its demands on Belyea, along with its demands on the county arising from his employment. Belyea was originally ordered to return

$422,920 in pension payments and pay $40,838 in retirement contributions. Belyea was told that another $70,346 the NHRS paid toward the cost of his health insurance premiums would be recovered by reducing future medical subsidies to the county. At the same time, the county was ordered to pay $42,571 in employer contributions incurred during Belyea’s tenure with the county. Writing to Philpot, Denise Call, director of employer services at the NHRS explained that the decision followed the recent receipt of documentation affirming that in 1996 Belyea was hired as Court Security Supervisor, which was an appointed position see next page

from preceding page that you will find yourself in “good” situations. However, if intentions and actions are immoral and harmful, then the resulting consequences may turn out to be “bad”. As I read through the rest of Mr. Sandy’s column, I could not help but ponder, as he did, the 14 precepts of Buddhism as outlined by Thich Nhat Hanh. These principles are such that all should strive to embrace. Furthermore, I could not help but to see the congruencies to that of Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Sikhism, Shinto, Rastafarian and the other 14 of the world’s main religions. At the core, they are all the similar in message, albeit different paths, messengers and prophetic topos. If we could only see past the differences, we would realize how similar

we all are. Perhaps then we would all get along, and the world would know peace. The Buddha taught that “in the sky, there is no distinction of east and west; people create distinctions out of their own minds and then believe them to be true.” This notion is in line with Thich Nhat Hanh’s first three of his fourteen principals. So if we can challenge ourselves, as Mr. Sandy has, to embrace this philosophy, not as a “religion”, but has a “way” to live with each other on this earth, then a pebble of peace will be dropped in an ocean of chaotic dissonance, and the ripples will travel, outward. Again, thanks to Mr. Sandy for his words, and for provoking this response. Dave Ferruolo Laconia

Doug Flutie Band playing at Lobster Pound to raise funds for autism research

LACONIA — New England football icon Doug Flutie will bring his rock band to Weirs Beach on Monday night. The concert, held at the Laconia Roadhouse in the Weirs Beach Lobster Pound compound will raise funds for autism research. “It should be a really great night,” said Michael Ray, one of the owners of the restaurant. Admission to the concert, held in the 2,000-capacity Roadhouse tent, will be by $20 donation. Doors open at 6 p.m. Last Kid Picked will open the show and The Doug Flutie Band, featuring the former Boston College star and New England Patriots player on drums, will take the stage at 9 p.m. The Doug Flutie Band plays rock and roll covers, mostly of hits from the 1980s, and Ray expected the entertainment to last until midnight. In addition to the musical acts, there will also be a 50/50 raffle and a silent auction featuring trips, signed sporting memorabilia, tickets to sporting events and other items. All monies raised will be donated to Autism Speaks, an organization that advocates for autism concerns and which funds research into the causes, prevention and treatment of autism. “It’s definitely something we’re throwing our support behind,” said Ray, who mentioned that a close friend has a child with autism. Flutie’s son, Doug, Jr., has also been diagnosed with the disability. from preceding page with a fixed term of two years that did not require enrollment in the NHRS. However, County Administrator Debra Shackett said that in addition to the documentation, which the NHRS has had for some time, within the last two weeks it was learned that the NHRS audited the county payroll in 2001, five years after Belyea was hired. The auditors found “no enrollment deficiencies and the county employees were well informed of the systems rules and regulations.” According to Shackett, the audit was discovered when she questioned auditors from the NHRS currently auditing the county payroll records,

It’s really near and dear to my heart.”

who informed her of it. She in turn called it to the attention of the NHRS shortly before it issued its decision. The cases brought by the NHRS against Egan and Loanes remain unresolved. The retirement system has ordered Egan to return $266,151 in pension payments and pay $18,097 in member contributions, altogether $284,248, and forgo $7,130 in future medical subsidies while it claims Loanes must forfeit $223,181 in pension payments and pay $25,324 in member contributions for a total of $248,505. Meanwhile, the NHRS claims the county must pay $22,917 in employer contributions for Loanes and $31,845 for Egan.

TEXT from page 2 all,” said Vicki Rimasse, a New Jersey woman whose son caused a fender bender earlier this year after texting in traffic. She made him take a safe-driving class after the mishap. “I felt like an idiot,” said her 18-year-old son, Dylan Young. The episode taught him “to be a lot more cautious,” although he conceded that he sometimes still texts behind the wheel. The findings released Thursday are the first federal statistics on how common the dangerous habit is in teens. Distracted driving deaths are most common in teens, blamed for about 16 percent of teen motor vehicle deaths.

Union Leader files 2nd suit against city in attempt to identify fire victim By Gail OBer

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA - The Union Leader has filed a second suit against the city of Laconia in its efforts to learn the name of a city man who was burned in a fire in his apartment in January. Belknap County Judge James O’Neill dismissed the first suit because when the Union Leader asked for the city’s police and fire departments to release the name, the newspaper “failed to request the right to inspect a public record.” He also said the Union Leader did not specify what documents, if any, should be reviewed. Without knowing if the record existed, ‘O’Neill said he could not rule on the request. He also said N.H. laws governing the public right to know do not require that a government agency create a document but rather provide for the review of existing documents or reports. When the Union Leader made its first request, the Fire Department denied it citing the federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability or HIPAA act that it claims prevents the department from releasing the names and any medical information about a patient. In his first ruling, O’Neill did not discuss HIPAA or refer to it in his decision. In the interim, the Union Leader requested the appropriate documents from both the Laconia Police and Fire Departments and received in return heav-

ily redacted documents. With the exception of the names of the firefighters involved, the fire department redacted every bit of information except that the distance from the Millview Apartments to Lakes Region General Hospital was .2 miles, that the patient weighed 270 pounds and was male. The police report was prepared by Sgt. Dennis Ashley but the name of the victim was redacted. The police report indicated there was no crime and noted that the victim’s keys were kept for safekeeping by the police. The keys are valued at $1. On the night of the fire, the press release issued by the Laconia Fire Department had more information than what was released to the Union Leader, including that the male victim appeared to have been smoking while he was using oxygen, that his pants caught fire and that he was able to exit his apartment on his own. When called by the Daily Sun on the night of the incident, Ashley said police were only there to direct traffic, that there was no crime and the victim was treated immediately by firefighters and taken to the hospital. At the time, Ashley said he didn’t even know the name of the victim. The Union Leader has taken the action only to learn the name of the victim and has said both in oral arguments before O’Neill during the first suit and in writing that the paper is seeking no personal or medical information.

“HIPAA is not applicable to the requested documents,” wrote Atty. Gregory Sullivan. “The Laconia Police Department is not a ‘health care provider’ and does not purport to be. HIPAA is in no way relevant to the Incident Report,” he wrote, underlining the last sentence in the Union Leader suit. Sullivan said that releasing the name of a victim in according to the Mans. V. Lebanon decision that an accident victim has no reasonable expectation of privacy in the fact that he or she was treated by city personnel. Sullivan contends that while medical billing record duties are performed by an employee of LRGHealthcare, that person doesn’t transmit electronic information about the patient - the purpose of the HIPAA law. He also argues that the incident occurred in a place owned by the Laconia Area Community Land Trust and the public has a right to know if the agency was adequately formulating and enforcing rules regarding fires and smoking. Sullivan said “the name sought is the necessary piece of information missing in order for the public to have effective, meaningful access to information about the activities of both the emergency responders and the housing authority overseeing the building at issue,” Sullivan wrote. The Union Leader has also asked for reimbursement of reasonable legal fees.

Dominant, LeBron James forces Game 7 vs. Celtics Buchholz shuts out Orioles in 7-0 Boston win BOSTON (AP) — Clay Buchholz pitched a fourhitter for his third career shutout — all against Baltimore — leading Boston Red Sox over the Orioles 7-0 Thursday night. Buchholz (6-2) struck out six and walked one, throwing 125 pitches, two shy of his career high. It was the fourth complete game for the 27-year-old right-hander, the first since a five-hitter in an 11-0 win at Baltimore on June 4, 2010. His only other shutout was a 10-0 victory in a nohitter on Sept. 1, 2007, his second big league start and appearance. Baltimore went without a hit between Ryan Flaherty’s single leading off the third and Wilson Betemit’s single starting the eighth. Fans gave Buchholz got a standing ovation before Chris Davis’ game-ending flyout.

BOSTON (AP) — LeBron James refused to let another season end in Boston. The Eastern Conference finals, and his chase of an NBA championship, are headed back to Miami for a Game 7. James had 45 points and 15 rebounds, overwhelming the Celtics and leading the Heat to a 98-79 victory Thursday night that forced the decisive game. Pushing away elimination right along with every defender who tried to stop him, James shot 19 of 26 from the field and finished four points shy of his playoff career-high while playing 45 minutes, not sitting down until the victory was long secured. Dwyane Wade added 17 points for the Heat, who need a victory at home Saturday to return to the NBA finals. Rajon Rondo had 21 points and 10 assists for Boston. Kevin Garnett and Brandon Bass each scored 12 points, but Paul Pierce had only nine on

4-of-18 shooting. In the site of some of James’ biggest disappointments, the only disappointed ones Thursday were the thousands of fans who hoped to see a celebration but instead filed out of the TD Garden midway through the fourth quarter, just before the league MVP called it a night. Miami barely won Game 2 before dropping the next three games, but this one was never in doubt. James was a one-man force on what’s supposed to be a Big Three, carrying the Heat in the first half while Wade made only 1 of 6 shots. The Celtics were hoping to complete a comeback from a 2-0 deficit, as Oklahoma City did, and advance to face the Thunder in the NBA finals. But they missed 13 of 14 3-point attempts and will have to win a second straight game in Miami to play for the title.

BIKE WEEK from page one family event over the years. You see lots of parents here with their kids. The event certainly is important to our economy. A lot of people will be coming here. They’ll be staying in our hotels and eating in our restaurants. It’s a great event,’’ said Lynch, as he paid tribute to association and it’s president Cynthia Makris of the NASWA Resort, whom he described as ‘’a real ambassador for the state of New Hampshire.” Laconia Mayor Michael Seymour said that although attendance numbers have been down in recent years ‘’this event has never been better than it is today’’ and credited local law enforcement and rescue workers with helping create a welcoming atmosphere for bikers. Both Channel 9 and the NH Union Leader reported that rally organizers are expecting a larger turnout than last year. Lorna Colquhoun of the state Department of Resources and Economic Development said that with good weather forecast and gas prices dropping Bike Week will be ‘’a boon to all businesses in the state. When we have a good Motorcycle Week, we have a good summer.” Law enforcement officials said that arrests were at an all-time low last year and that there were no fatalities in the City of Laconia. “It has been a group effort that it has brought it too that level,’’ said Laconia Police Chief Chris Adams, who said that over the years he has seen Bike Week change for the better. Laconia Fire Chief Ken Erickson said that, thanks to Lakes Region General Hospital, paramedics will be assigned to the Weirs Beach area all week. He also urged bikers to ‘’stay off the yellow line’’ to avoid accidents when riding and to pay attention to no parking signs. He said that illegally parked bikes create unsafe conditions for rescue vehicles and that in the event of an emergency ‘’we will get through.’’ Maj. Russ Conte of the New Hampshire State Police said that the combined local and state law enforcement effort stands out as an example of cooperation which creates a safer environment for all those attending Bike Week. Meredith Police Chief Kevin Morrow said that he has participated in 25 Bike Weeks and over that time has seen a lot of bad crashes. ‘’Do not drink and drive.’’ he said, adding that he had been asked by merchants in town to tell people to ‘’come to Meredith to spend your money.’’ Not to be outdone, Gilford Police Chief Kevin Keenan said that there were two concerts at Meadowbrook during Bike Week and the town of Gilford would be holding its 200th birthday party on Satur-

day, June 16 and urged people to attend. That led Makris, who presided at the press conference to comment ‘’Look how far we’ve come. Law enforcement is now the Chamber of Commerce.’’ She also thanked the State Police Motorcycle Unit for leading the annual Peter Makris Memorial Run, which will be held on Saturday. The sixth annual event serves as the kickoff to the week and begins at 9 a.m. The run, which starts at the NASWA Resort, raises money for the Laconia Fire Department Life Saving Fund and Water Rescue Unit and the Easter Seals New Hampshire Veterans Count program. St. Clair said that the police will be needed to help escort the many bikers who will be leaving from the Lakes Region area to ride to Canaan on Wednesday for the new location of the Bike Week hill climb The event will be known as the Shawn P. Farnsworth Memorial Hill climb in honor of the 36-year-old hill climb rider from the Farnsworth family of the Canaan area who died last October from injuries sustained in a hill climb crash while competing in Ohio. St. Clair said that Gunstock Mountain Resort, where the hill climb has been held since 1993, will be working on a new event for next year’s 90th Bike Week. Jerry Gappens, general manager of NH Motor Speedway, said the 89th annual Loudon Classic will be held at the Speedway on Saturday, June 17, which will culminate three days of racing at the track.

Notice of Finding of No Significant Impact and Notice of Intent to Request Release of Funds Date:

June 8, 2012

Grantee:

Town of Belmont

Address:

143 Main Street, PO Box 310 Belmont, New Hampshire 03220-0310

Contacts: Jeanne Beaudin 267-8300x24, Donna Lane 447-5057 These notices shall satisfy two separate but related procedural requirements for activities to be undertaken by the Town of Belmont. REQUEST FOR RELEASE OF FUNDS On or about June 26, 2012, the Town of Belmont, will request CDFA/CDBG to release CDBG Program Funds for the proposed Belmont Village Water System Improvements Project. Of the $202,377 in Community Development Block Grant funds, $25,000 will be retained for administrative purposes and the remaining $177,377 will be used towards the Village area water system improvements, as well as improvements to the drainage system and repair/ replacement of disturbed roadway. The majority of the residents in the Village area are of low and moderate income households. CDBG Funds: $202,377. Other Funds: $220,000. Total Project Cost: $422,377+/-. FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT The Town of Belmont has determined that the project will have no significant impact on the human environment. This determination is based on the assumption that Belmont will obtain all permits required and will adhere to all applicable regulations. Therefore, an Environmental Impact Statement under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) is not required. Additional project information is contained in the Environmental Review Record (ERR) on file at the Town of Belmont, 143 Main Street, Belmont, New Hampshire 03220 and may be examined or copied weekdays 10 A.M. to 4 P.M. PUBLIC COMMENTS Any individual, group, or agency disagreeing with this determination or wishing to comment on the project may submit written comments to Jon Pike, Chairman, Board of Selectmen. All comments received by June 25, 2012 will be considered by the Town of Belmont prior to authorizing submission of a request for release of funds. Comments should specify which Notice they are addressing. RELEASE OF FUNDS Jon Pike certifies to CDFA/CDBG that in his capacity as Chairman, Board of Selectmen, he consents to accept the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts if an action is brought to enforce responsibilities in relation to the environmental review process and that these responsibilities have been satisfied. CDFA/ CDBG’s approval of the certification satisfies its responsibilities under NEPA and related laws and authorities, and allows Belmont to use Program funds.

LRCC nursing teacher honored with Chancellor’s Award

Lakes Region Community College (LRCC) Chancellor’s Award of Teaching Excellence recipient, Debbie Brady, center, of Gilford, politely resists her photo being taken at LRCC’s Nurse Pinning Ceremony in May. On the left is LRCC Nursing graduate, Tracy Rose of Alexandria, co-president of the college’s Wellness Club and 2011 President’s Award of Excellence recipient. On the right is new Nursing Adjunct Professor, Angella Bascom of Center Harbor. At the time this photograph was taken Brady did not realize that she would be given the system’s top teaching award as it was announced at graduation two days later. “LRCC’s Nursing professors are top-notch,” says Rose. “They are caring, supportive, and encourage students to work to their fullest potential. Debbie Brady is so deserving of the Chancellor’s Award of Teaching Excellence, and anyone that has met Ms. Brady will definitely agree. I am so thankful to the great professors I have had at LRCC and I recommend the Nursing Program in every possible way.” (Courtesy photo)

Objections must be prepared and submitted in accordance with the required procedures (24 CFR Part 58) and shall be addressed to CDFA/CDBG, 14 Dixon Ave, Suite 102, Concord, NH 03301.

Crosby, Stills and Nash playing Meadowbrook GILFORD — Coming together each from hugely successful groups of their own, the world’s first “supergroup” known as Crosby, Stills & Nash is coming to the Meadowbrook U.S. Cellular Pavilion Wednesday, June 13. Tickets are still available through the Meadowbrook Box Office at (603) 2934700 or www.meadowbrook.net. Actively collaborating since 1969, the music of David Crosby, Stephen Stills, and Graham Nash is a cornerstone of rock ‘n roll. Whether they first harmonized in Joni Mitchell’s living room, or in Mama Cass Elliot’s dining room (depends which member you ask), the same holds true; this group’s connection as artists and as friends, from day one, was profound and unbreakable. Their songs are just as durable as the essential elements of our pop culture experience, conveying emotional truths and social consciousness in equal measure. The fact that each principal came from another successful band caused CSN to be known as the world’s first “supergroup.” The threesome more than lived up to the term with their ‘69 debut LP, a ten-song tour de force that hit #6 on Billboard’s pop albums chart, earned CSN a GRAMMY® for Best New Artist and delivered classic tracks including “Suite: Judy Blue Eyes,” “Marrakesh Express,” “Guinnevere” and “Wooden Ships.” 1970’s Déjà Vu came next; the first album from the group’s four-man configuration with Neil Young, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young (CSN&Y). Another notch on the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time list, Déjà Vu was a #1 LP that introduced timeless hits

including “Teach Your Children,” “Our House”, “Helpless,” “Carry On,” and “Almost Cut My Hair.” 4 Way Street, a double live LP, followed in 1971, showcasing CSN&Y’s live mojo on a set of songs as personal as it was political. Its success further built their reputation as the only American band of the original Woodstock era to have a societal impact rivaling that of the Beatles. Almost 30 years into their creative partnership, Crosby, Stills & Nash was inducted into the Rock ‘n Roll Hall of Fame in 1997 and was later inducted in 2009 into the New York City based, Songwriter’s Hall of Fame. The honor recognized David Crosby, Stephen Stills, and Graham Nash both as individual solo artists, and as three together as CSN. It also acknowledges the groundbreaking music each was instrumental in creating with landmark groups prior to forming CSN: The Byrds (Crosby), Buffalo Springfield (Stills) and The Hollies (Nash). And, in June, 2009 they released an album entitled, Crosby, Stills, & Nash Demos, a single-disc collection of rare and previously unheard demos of destined-to-beclassic signature songs reaching back to the group’s earliest days. CSN survived the turbulent times in which they existed and continues to make music that connects with fans across America and around the world. The convergence of these three voices back in 1969 truly changed the world with a sound that has lived on ever since, both as a positive agent of change and a welcome compass point of reassurance through times that could use more of each.

NH Music Fest ‘selling’ musicians’ chairs to raise funds PLYMOUTH — The New Hampshire Music Festival is conducting a unique fund raising effort this year by selling chairs which will be used by members of its Symphony Orchestra. Frank Pesci, the Festival’s Executive Director, explains, ‘’All non-profits look for interesting ways to raise money to support their programs. In the past, many of the Festival supporters have volunteered to sponsor one the musicians in our orchestra. This year, we decided to turn it into a fund raising event.’’ The Festival is ‘selling’ the chairs that the musicians occupy during concerts in hopes of raising close to $200,000. Each chair is ‘listed’ at $5,000.

Small groups can band together to ‘Share-A-Chair’. This year the Festival’s Symphony, Pops and Chamber concerts will run from July 6 through August 17. All performances are held at Plymouth State’s Silver Center for the Arts. Pesci says ‘’Even if you can’t buy a musician’s chair, be sure to buy one (a seat that is) for yourself and your friends to attend one of our concerts. You will be enjoying great music and helping to preserve what is now a 60 year tradition.’’ To learn more about the any of New Hampshire Music Festival chairs, contact the Festival office at 279-3300, info@nhmf.org, or on the web at www.nhmf.org.

by Darby Conley

Get Fuzzy

By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Opportunities that come your way are a bit more complicated than you’d like. You may feel too constrained by your circumstances to agree to the terms presented. State the conditions under which you could say yes. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Even if a person has been a part of your life for many years, you can always discover some fresh brilliance in that person. This is a fact that today will prove. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ll make a super leader. Your talent for transforming resistance into acceptance will be highlighted. Problems are a chance for you to generate solutions that leave everyone better off. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ll have to show people what you mean, provide an example they can duplicate and basically demonstrate by doing the work yourself. They’ll catch on soon enough, just not today. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). If you’re wondering why someone keeps coming back to you for help, it’s because you keep providing it. Only you know for sure what you’re willing to give comfortably and how healthy this arrangement is. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 8). This year you’ll expand your reach. Publicizing your work, cause or beliefs will bring success in July, when you’ll show your fantastic face to the world. People confide in you and rely on you in August. You’ll lead a team to victory in September. December brings a financial risk, and you’ll be rewarded, too. Libra and Scorpio people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 36, 9, 30 and 21.

TUNDRA

ARIES (March 21-April 19). The one who says “I don’t know” knows. The one who says “I don’t care” might care more deeply than anyone else. Pay close attention to the feelings behind the words. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’ll provide what a person needs most: an understanding heart and maybe a hand to hold, too. This you’ll do without cause or motive other than to release the compassion inside you. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). An interesting dynamic occurs to teach this lesson: It doesn’t matter how fantastic you are at your job. What matters is whether other people know and believe that you are fantastic at your job. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Everyone has an act, but you’ve grown tired of yours and would much rather show up as just you, no frills, contrivances or cover-ups. Authenticity matters more to you every day. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Freedom means something different to every person. You’ll exercise your freedom by reveling in unscheduled time, following the whim of the moment. Does it count that you had to schedule this time to be unscheduled? VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll take charge of a situation and make a proposal. Whether it is rejected or accepted, you’ll have changed the dynamic of a relationship by presenting very interesting options. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). There is nothing wrong with wanting more recognition and responsibility. A title will give you the validation and respect from the outside world that you seek.

Yesterday’s Answer

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Friday, June 8, 2012— Page 17

––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Friday, June 8, the 160th day of 2012. There are 206 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On June 8, 1972, during the Vietnam War, a South Vietnamese Air Force jet dropped a napalm bomb onto the village of Trang Bang. Associated Press photographer Nick Ut (oot) captured the image of a screaming 9-year-old girl, Phan Thi Kim Phuc (fahn thee kihm fook), as she ran naked and severely burned from the scene of the explosion along with other victims. On this date: In A.D. 632, the prophet Muhammad died in Medina. In 1845, Andrew Jackson, seventh president of the United States, died in Nashville, Tenn. In 1861, voters in Tennessee approved an Ordinance of Secession passed the previous month by the state legislature. In 1915, Secretary of State William Jennings Bryan resigned in a disagreement with President Woodrow Wilson over U.S. handling of the sinking of the Lusitania. In 1953, the Supreme Court ruled that restaurants in the District of Columbia could not refuse to serve blacks. In 1962, 20th Century Fox fired actress Marilyn Monroe from its production “Something’s Got to Give,” saying she was unreliable. (Fox later changed its mind, but Monroe died before filming could resume, and the movie was abandoned.) In 1967, 34 U.S. servicemen were killed when Israel attacked the USS Liberty, a Navy intelligence-gathering ship in the Mediterranean. (Israel later said the Liberty had been mistaken for an Egyptian vessel.) In 1978, a jury in Clark County, Nev., ruled the so-called “Mormon will,” purportedly written by the late billionaire Howard Hughes, was a forgery. In 1982, President Ronald Reagan became the first American chief executive to address a joint session of the British Parliament. In 1987, Fawn Hall began testifying at the IranContra hearings, describing how, as secretary to National Security aide Oliver L. North, she helped to shred some documents and spirit away others. One year ago: OPEC unexpectedly left its production levels unchanged, causing oil prices to jump as senior officials reported their meeting in Vienna had ended in disarray.

Page 18 — THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Friday, June 8, 2012

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Dear Annie: I am an 18-year-old guy, and my parents are splitting up. I don’t know the full story, but things are getting somewhat awkward around the house. We try to live normally, but the silence hurts. I’m trying to deal with it and put up a good front until graduation, but it’s hard. When I am with both of my parents in the same room, it’s too quiet. One of us will try to initiate a conversation, but it cuts off after a few minutes. My father is military and will be deploying shortly after I graduate. Everyone right now seems to be on edge. I have no way to talk about this with anyone. I’ve heard it’s always worse before it gets better, but it seems that there is no end to the silence. How do I associate with both of my parents and not have any “divorce talk”? -Tom Dear Tom: Your parents may believe they are making it easier for you by not discussing the situation. Or they may fear that talking about it will create a cascade of bitter words, arguing and crying, and they are hoping to spare you. But you do need to talk to someone. It would help enormously. Do you have a favorite teacher, coach, neighbor or friend’s parent? What about a grandparent, aunt or uncle? The military also offers counseling for family members. Try Military One Source (militaryonesource.mil) and ask for help. Dear Annie: I’ve been dating “Ben” for five years, and I consider it a serious relationship. We see each other often and are in touch by phone daily. Ben likes to ride his motorcycle and frequently stays out quite late on Saturday nights. I often don’t figure this out until 9:00 p.m. or later, when he hasn’t returned any calls or texts. He claims he doesn’t hear the phone while riding, which I understand, but why can’t he return my call when he takes

a break? Or tell me before he goes that he won’t be back earlier? It’s not that we make specific plans for Saturday night, but there’s usually a casual “call me and we’ll do something later” plan. It upsets me that he doesn’t include me on these Saturday night jaunts, doesn’t communicate to me what he’s doing and doesn’t seem to care that I sit home alone on a Saturday night because it’s too late to make other arrangements. I’ve talked to him about it, but it makes no difference. I admit that it wouldn’t bother me as much if he did this on Monday nights. Am I overreacting? -- An Avid Reader Dear Avid: Unless there are definite plans, you should assume Ben is not coming. There’s no point sitting alone at home waiting for someone else to call. Arrange to do something with your friends on Saturday nights. It will keep you occupied, and Ben will probably find you much more interesting if you aren’t waiting around for him. Dear Annie: This is in response to “Sleepless in Seattle,” who isn’t sure about letting her 11-year-old son have any association with her gay neighbor. My son’s father walked out on us a month before the baby was born. I now live with my toddler at my parents’ house, along with my gay brother and his partner of 10 years. I could not be more grateful and amazed at the amount of love they have for my child. We are so unbelievably lucky to have such mature, wonderful men in his life, with values and a commitment to my son that his heterosexual biological father lacks in every way. There is never a moment where I think my son is in danger from being around his uncle because of his sexual orientation. -- Disgusted in N.Y.

Moose lottery drawing takes place on June 15

CONCORD — The annual drawing to select the lucky hunters who will be offered a permit to hunt moose in New Hampshire this fall will be held on Friday, June 15, at 9 a.m. at the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department, 11 Hazen Drive in Concord. N.H. Fish and Game will issue 275 moose hunting permits this year. The public and interested media are invited to be on hand to watch the excitement as the names are drawn. Winners are selected through a computerized random drawing. Radio personalities Peter St. James and Ken Cail will broadcast live from Fish and Game headquarters that morning from 6–10 a.m., with the drawing starting at 9 a.m. Tune in to radio station WTPL (107.7 FM), which can be heard from Nashua to the Lakes Region; or in the Upper Valley, the broadcast can be heard on 94.3 FM or 1400 AM. The station will also stream the

audio on its website, http://www.WTPLFM.com. Lottery results will also be available online – official lists of winners and alternates will be posted on the Fish and Game website by 11 a.m. on Friday, June 15. Visitors to the site are reminded to be patient; the large spike in web traffic on lottery day can cause download delays. Limited-edition 2012 moose hunt T-shirts will be available again this summer. More than 13,500 applicants entered the lottery for the chance to win a permit for the 2012 moose season. In addition, more than 1,200 people will continue to accrue bonus points because they submitted an application for a point only, but are not included in the lottery this year. The bonus point system improves participants chances of winning for each consecutive year they enter and are not selected.

MEREDITH — St. Charles Borromeo Catholic Church is currently hosting inquiry sessions for those who are considering becoming practicing Catholics.

The meetings will be held on Thursdays, June 22, July 5 and July 19 at 5 p.m. in Our Lady of Victories Room. Those who would like to attend can call the office at 279-4403.

NEW YORK (AP) — Jake Johnson says the strangest thing about fame so far isn’t seeing himself on TV in Fox’s “New Girl,” or getting recognized in the street. It’s the number of men his own age who will ask for a photo with him alone. “It confuses me a little,” he said in a recent interview. “We’ll have our arms around each other and

I’ll think, ‘Our ears are touching.’ It’s not offensive. It just doesn’t need to happen. My brother is my best friend in the world and in our lives we’ve hugged 15 times. With fame, you can’t be that guy who says no. So, the surprising thing of fame is the amount of man arms that have been around my shoulders for photo opportunities.”

Women for Obama group plans June 11 outreach party in Laconia LACONIA — As women’s issues become more and more important in this presidential election campaign, a group of volunteers called Women For Obama is planning an outreach party for voters of all persuasions – Democratic, Independent, and Republican – to be held on Monday, Cindy Rosenwald (Courtesy June 11, from 5-7 p.m. photo) The event is open to the public and refreshments will be served. The gathering will take place at the new down-

town Laconia office of Obama For America, located at 571 Main Street, next door to The Soda Shoppe. Hosting the event will be Kate Miller, who is a former NH State Representative and currently the organizer for Women For Obama in Belknap County. “Women voters are likely to be a major constituency for President Obama in this election,” said Miller. “Our goal is to gather strong women supporters who will help Obama win in Belknap County in November.” Such efforts are happening throughout New Hampshire and across the country, with the help of field organizers like Sarah Austino, who is facilitating activities in Belknap County and the Plymouth area on behalf of Organizing For America. Featured speaker at the June 11 party will be Cindy Rosenwald, State Representative from Nashua and former Chair of the NH House Commit-

tee on Health & Human Services & Elderly Affairs, who currently serves on the House Finance Committee. She will talk about how the new health care act affects women’s issues. In her words: “The Affordable Care Act ends health insurance discrimination against women and eliminates insurers’ most abusive practices that left women entirely vulnerable just when they need health insurance the most.” According to Miller, “All women in Belknap County are welcome to attend. We all need to find out more about which issues may be simply media stunts and which issues are actually crucial to the future of women in our society. There will be time for dicussion, and we will invite a lively exchange of ideas.” For more information about the event, contact Kate Miller at katemiller@metrocast.net or 279-4764.
