Salvation Army Thrift Store violated
LACONIA — The Salvation Army Thrift store at 77 New Salem Street was closed on Friday after store manager Kim Grant arrived to open for business and discovered evidence of a break-in. “I was shocked, completely shocked when I saw what happened, said Grant. “We are here to help the community, and for someone to do this is awful.” The store, which opened at its new location in February of 2011, helps many families and individuals with clothing, furnisee THRIFT page 8

Laconia’s hopes for $20,000 education grant riding with the #48 car on Sunday Five-time NASCAR Sprint Cup champion Jimmy Johnson stands next to his #48 Lowe’s Chevrolet yesterday in the pit area at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in Loudon. Johnson and other drivers were at the track on Friday qualifying and practicing for Sunday’s Lenox Industrial Tools 301-mile race. He will carry the hopes of Laconia winning the speedway’s “Race to Benefit Education”, which carries with it $20,000 grant for local schools. Each of the state’s 13 cities was able to select one of the Sprint Cup series’ top drivers to represent them in the race and if that driver wins on Sunday, their city gets the grant. Laconia City Manager Scott Myers had the third selection in the driver draft and he picked Johnson. After qualifying times were posted on Friday, Johnson will start in the seventh position.

LACONIA — The 2013 edition of Laconia football Sachems will not only play on a new gridiron but in a new division following a radical and experimental realignment of high school announced by the New Hampshire Interscholastic Athletic Association last month. After the 2012 season the six divisions will be shrunk to three, two with 20 teams and one with 17. Each division will be divided into four conferences of four or five teams.

Autistic man survives 3-week ordeal in Utah desert
SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — The father of a 28-year-old autistic man who barely survived three weeks in remote southern Utah says his son was an experienced mountaineer but was out of his element in the harsh desert. John LaFever said Friday that his son William made one crucial mistake: setting off for a 150-mile journey along the wild Escalante River without food or equipment that was apparently stolen before his trip got underway. “He didn’t realize how arduous his journey would be,” LaFever told The Associated Press. “We didn’t know what he was heading into, either. Thank God he’s alive.” Authorities say William LaFever, of Colorado Springs, Colo., apparently didn’t realize the distance involved with his plan to hike from Boulder, Utah, to Page, Ariz. William LaFever is being treated for starvation and dehydration at Dixie Regional Medical Center in St. George, his father said.

Romney says he had no role in Bain management after ‘99 LACONIA (AP) — His credibility under attack, Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney insisted on Friday that he had “no role whatsoever in the management” of a private equity firm after early 1999, and demanded that President Barack Obama apologize for campaign aides who persist in alleging otherwise. “This is simply beneath the dignity of the presidency of the United States,” Romney said in an interview on ABC, one of several he granted to network and cable stations in hopes of extinguishing the controversy.
Under pressure from Democrats and even some Republicans to release tax returns going back several years, Romney indicated he wouldn’t do so. “You can never satisfy the opposition research team of the Obama organization,” he told CBS. Romney said after he left Bain Capital he retained ownership “until we were able to negotiate a departure” from the company he had founded. “I had no role whatsoever in the management of Bain Capital after February of 1999,” he said, adding that officials at the company and indepen-
dent fact-checkers had said the same thing. He also said, “I was an owner, and being a shareholder doesn’t mean you’re running the business.” He said he couldn’t recall attending any Bain management meetings after he moved to Salt Lake City to oversee the Olympic Games. The precise role Romney played at the firm between 1999 and 2001 is important not only because critics have raised questions about his truthfulness, but also because Bain was sending jobs overseas see ROMNEY page 12
NEW YORK (AP) — JPMorgan Chase said Friday that its traders may have tried to conceal the losses from a soured bet that has embarrassed the bank and cost it almost $6 billion — far more than its CEO first suggested. The bank said an internal investigation had uncovered evidence that led executives to “question the integrity” of the values, or marks, that traders assigned to their trades.
JPMorgan also said that it planned to revoke two years’ worth of pay from some of the senior managers involved in the bad bet, and that it had closed the division of the bank responsible for the mistake. “This has shaken our company to the core,” CEO Jamie Dimon said. The bank said the loss, which Dimon estimated at $2 billion when he disclosed it in May, had grown to $5.8 billion, and could grow larger than $7 billion if finan-
cial markets deteriorate severely. Dimon said the worst appeared to be behind the bank, and investors seemed to agree: They sent JPMorgan stock up 6 percent, making it the best performer in the Dow Jones industrial average. Daniel Alpert, a founding managing partner with the New York investment bank Westwood Capital Partners LLC, said the bank and Dimon appeared to have learned see $6B LOSS page 3

Legal experts say Paterno could have faced charges for Sandusky inaction HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — If he were alive today, Joe Paterno — the coach who stood for so long for character and integrity both on and off the football field — could be looking at charges such as child endangerment, perjury and conspiracy. Legal experts said emails and other
evidence in the Penn State investigative report released Thursday suggest that Paterno may have misled a grand jury when asked when he first heard about Jerry Sandusky’s misconduct, and show that Paterno and other university officials put boys in danger with their failure
to report sexual abuse allegations against Sandusky more than a decade ago. Duquesne University law professor Wes Oliver said the report by former FBI Director Louis Freeh reads like a prosecution case for a child endangerment charge see PATERNO page 11

Larry Frates turns his attention & talents to reining in bullying
in dealing with difficult peer relationships is an important part of what’s needed to help curb bullying. Frates said that the program will include magic, cartooning, storytelling and caricatures as well as audience participation and will center around a magic trunk which contains hats which impart a certain character to those who wear them and feature characters such as Swami Salami, Foo Ling You, Harry the Hatter, Artie the Artist and the Yankee Doodler. He said that he is seeking business partners for the program and that money raised from advertising will be used to purchase items such as buttons, posters, coloring books and T-shirts which will be given to children who take part in the assemblies which will take place in schools in and around the Lakes Region.
BY ROGER AMSDEN FOR THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — Art educator and master magician Larry Frates is developing an anti-bullying program which he hopes to bring into local schools and before community organizations in the months ahead. Frates says that awareness of bullying as a major problem has emerged in recent years and that research shows that as many as half of all students of middle school age have experienced bullying, which in today’s highly connected world is made all the more pervasive through cell phones, Twitter and other communication technologies. ‘’It’s very hard for someone who is being bullied to escape from that cycle,’’ says Frates, who says that a the child-centered approach he is working on is designed to encourage students in grades K-6 to find ways to deal with bullying when it happens to them and to also stand up for those who are being bullied. “You Are the Magic, Be a Buddy Not a Bully” is the theme Frates chosen for the project, which he said will follow the same plan used in earlier school assembly projects, The “Say Magic Show” which focused on substance abuse and the “Get It Together Show”, which focused on peer pressure. Frates, who taught in public schools for decades and for the last 39 years has run the Frates Creative Arts Center in Downtown Laconia, says that while teaching in public schools he was ‘’always concerned about the way I saw kids treating each other. Kids need to be more sensitive and understand the difference between playful teasing and saying and doing things that are hurtful.’’ He sees bullying as an extension of the peer pressure problem and being much harder to control than 20 or so years ago because of the use of cellphones, which create incidents that teachers and school administrators are not aware of, ‘’Kids who are being bullied just won’t say anything at the elementary and middle school level.
Larry Frates appears as Swami Salami, one of the characters which will be part of the ant-bullying program he is developing. (Roger Amsden/for The Laconia Daily Sun)
What the program I’m developing is aimed at is showing each child that there’s magic in them and that they have the power to change things. I have seen kids rise to the occasion in art or in plays and they need to know they can do that same thing when it comes to bullying,’’ says Frates, He says that showing kids positive support and providing avenues so that they can get help from adults

$6B LOSS from page 2 from the crisis. He said Dimon now realizes how complex and difficult to manage the bank is, will be more diligent in the future and probably won’t be the crusader he has been against some proposed financial regulation. “Did it cost shareholders a few bucks? Yup,” he said. “But it was a non-horrible way of learning the lesson, in the sense that the entire institution didn’t burn down, the lesson’s been taught and Dimon seems ready to take it.” For his part, Dimon concluded: “We are not proud of this moment, but we are proud of our company.” The investigation, which covered more than a million emails and tens of thousands of voice messages, suggested traders were trying to make losses look smaller, the bank said. The revelation could expose JPMorgan to civil fraud charges. If regulators decide that employee deceptions caused JPMorgan to report inaccurate financial details, they could pursue charges against the employees, the bank or both.

London muddling through LONDON — The best view of London’s Olympic Park is from the picture windows at the top floor of the John Lewis department store in the vast Westfield Stratford mall five miles east of the Tower of London. It’s not the London tourists usually see. Westfield Stratford is an upscale American-style mall, and the sleek Olympic Park structures have nothing of the historic patina of the Tower of London or the Houses of Parliament. This is a reminder that most Brits, like most Europeans, live not in tourist-thronged historic centers but in far-flung suburbs. They live in freestanding houses, drive cars most places and shop at malls, like most Americans. Only they aren’t shopping quite as they used to. John Lewis, like other London stores, is full of “sale” signs and deep discounts. Britain is at the brink of recession and trembling lest the collapse of the euro plunge its European trading partners into economic chaos. Its political leaders don’t seem to know quite what to do. David Cameron and George Osborne, prime minister and chancellor of the exchequer since the May 2010 election, approached office with assumptions that, like those of Barack Obama, have proved unfounded. Obama assumed that economic distress would make Americans more supportive of, or amenable to, big government programs like his stimulus package and Obamacare. That proved wrong, and he’s struggling to find a plausible re-election theme. When Cameron and Osborne became leaders of the Conservative Party in 2005, they assumed that Britain’s decade-long economic boom would continue to provide government with lots of revenue and that British voters wouldn’t stomach serious cuts in public spending. But recession hit before the election, and the Conservatives fell short of a majority in the House of Commons and in response formed a coalition government with the leftish Liberal Democrats. The coalition is producing thoughtful reforms in education and welfare, but polls show the Lib Dems losing support because of their alliance with the Tories and the Conservatives running well behind the opposition Labor Party. The coalition has significantly cut government spending, but has kept in place most of the tax increases pushed through by Labor’s Gordon Brown when he was chancellor in Tony Blair’s government and then prime minister from 2007 to 2010. It is scaling back only slightly the 50-percent top income tax rate that
Brown imposed after the financial crisis of 2008. But it has only started to reverse Brown’s steady expansion of the public sector that created jobs for thousands of coordinators, facilitators and liaisons. Some of them may have improved the operations of government. But one suspects that the public would be able to get on perfectly well without most of them. At least Britain is not imitating the “austerity” policies of most European governments, which consist more of tax increases than spending cuts. But they have not embraced the deep spending cuts that Canada and Sweden made in the 1990s, which helped those two nations to weather the international recession much better than other advanced nations. British politics was roiled this week by the coalition’s proposals, pushed by the Lib Dems, to make the House of Lords an elective chamber, filled by politicians elected for single 15-year terms. But a large enough number of Conservative backbenchers defied party whips that the coalition leaders had to withdraw a procedural motion necessary to pass the proposal. The current House of Lords, under Blair’s 1999 reforms, is made up of distinguished members who can amend and delay legislation, but do not threaten the primacy of the elected House of Commons. Conservative rebels feared an elective Lords would do so, and without the accountability to voters inherent in a legislature whose members, for the most part, expect to face the voters again. The Lib Dems hoped that an elective upper chamber, chosen by proportional representation, would give them a perpetual veto on public policy despite the fact that they are heavily outvoted by the two major parties. They tried earlier to get proportional representation in the House of Commons, but that was defeated soundly in a referendum in spring 2011. No one thinks the Lib Dems dare to bring down the government and force an election. The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee last month was a British triumph, and the Olympics look likely to be another. But the British coalition government seems to be just muddling through.

LETTERS City Council does have power to deny return of circus in 2013 To the editor, Many of our local citizens, City Council, mayor and Parks and Recreation Department may not realize that there is current legislation to get support for HR-3359 which is to assure public safety and the humane treatment of animals. Go to www.breakthechainus. com to send an e-mail to Congressman Guinta for support. This can be sent to anyone you know in any state so their representative can be informed of any support in this nature. Bob Barker testified as it was introduced to Congress. (There is another bill that calls for protection or banning of Big cats (HR-4122) as well. Most “cats” I know would RUN from fire not into a hoop of it. That is not natural is it?) I have been trying to summarize the factual data that I have inquired for myself and came across an article this morning that does just that. It is a recent article written by Julie Hanan, who is an exotic pets examiner, on April 20, 2012 Titled “Small Circuses in small towns-a risky business?” It even mentions Laconia and its associated potential profit. www.examiner.com is where to find it and enter the title. If anyone were to take five minutes this would be where I would suggest they read to learn about circuses (beyond just Kelly Miller Circus’ website) and I would certainly hope that our local sponsors are not ONLY looking there. She mentions that Kelly Miller is the “sister circus to Carson and Barnes”. The upset with us animal/humane supporters is that Kelly Miller Circus is NOT a separate entity that does not do business with Carson and Barnes. Fish and Game permits for them to come here for theis past weekends and the permit shows where some of the animals come from: Carson and Barnes. (All three elephants did and they are all around 40 YEARS old!) This is important because they have many animal rights violations under the USDA through the animal welfare act AWA. If you read about these, a lot of them say that C & B is in violation of even the minimal humane requirements. I read that Kelly Miller Circus DID have an supposed violation LAST summer, with three tigers
had to get this all contained of course. I did not find this on their website. Many in the local public fear we could not fully “control” for lack of a better word, wild animals at Memorial Park. For Kelly Miller Circus to say on their site, under “animal care”, that they emphasize the care of “especially our own” may indeed be true but they get some animals from Carson and Barnes in the same town/city of Hugo, Oklahoma. This is on the permit for 2012-32. I just feel this is misleading to people that ONLY go to one website for information. Look at the good they offer but really look into safety and any humane animal connections. This info was found on www.bornfreeusa.org, which is a reputable site. Hopefully we won’t need to have another meeting about this in the future as I was invited to a future downtown initiative meeting. Please just read the above mentioned article. We cannot just go from emotion, it must have merit. This is why I was not at the protest this year. I needed to research for myself. There are plenty of other sites out there, including AWA and USDA themselves. Info IS available for our sponsors to read. Kelly Miller has good non-animal entertainment, so maybe that is an idea but then again, how can we invite ANY business into New Hampshire or Laconia that directly supports another with animal cruelty and could cause unpredictable danger to the public. If it is only for the money than that is not fair to the many of us in the community that do not support this. We need not go into specifics of animals in the wild versus animals “trained” to do what is unnatural to them. Can we simply invite an animal free circus in the future if there is such a need for this? (This is one that would not have any animals in the first place.) www.aspca.org has many listed on their website. The Council DOES have the power to decline a return request next year under Section 47:17 By laws and ordinances; powers of the city Councils. People I have talked with in the community simply do not realize any of this. That’s all I have to say on this matter. Dianne Chandronnait

LETTERS Person doesn’t lose right to participate because goals are faith based To the editor, I read Chris Burbank’s letter on same sex marriage and I have a few thoughts about it. While his letter appears on the surface to be a plug for diversity and tolerance, it’s really an example of anti-Christian bigotry. He says he’s astounded when he hears someone support a bill or law because “the Bible says so,” or because they think God would want them to. He thinks the separation between church and state should disallow Christians from trying to influence public policy debates based on their beliefs. Well, I disagree. Chris is pro gay marriage. Where did he get his opinion from? Maybe it was from the liberal philosophy taught in the media and schools now. Maybe it was from literature put out by a gay group. Maybe from attitudes learned at
home. Wherever he got it, he got it from somewhere. The point of the First Amendment is that all Americans have a right to join the public discourse and try to influence policy, whether they get their opinions from a political philosophy such as communism, their own religion, someone else’s religion, a conversation with a friend or just some private revelation they had the last time they took a mind altering drug. It doesn’t matter where you get your opinions from. You have a right to them. A person doesn’t lose their right to participate in the legislative process just because they derive their opinions from their faith. Because if they did, that would be anti-religious discrimination. Think about it. Hillarie Goldstein Franklin
So far, I’m impressed with what I read of Lamontagne’s plans To the editor, I am continuing my search for the gubernatorial candidate for whom I will vote this election day. Previously I mentioned that I am leaning toward voting for Ovide Lamontagne. I have examined one of the major points of his campaign: “Encourage Entrepreneurial Growth and Jobs — Entrepreneurs are the key to creating new and growing businesses. New and growing businesses are the key to enhancing New Hampshire’s job growth.” I have often stated that I am not against giving a helping hand to my neighbor when he or she is in need. However, I am not happy about those individuals who decide to retire on
their welfare payments. I have yet to hear anything about any individual on welfare, creating a new business and jobs. If you have, I would be interested in hearing the facts. One of Mr. Lamontagne’s aims, when elected, is to encourage these entrepreneurs to start their business in tax friendly New Hampshire. I think this is a great aim, but while I still intend to examine his platform more fully, I am even more encouraged by his position. If you want to find out more about Mr. Lamantagne’s aim’s when elected governor, go to www. Ovide2012.com. Elliot Fin Meredith

Mr. Earle knows he’s fighting losing battle, Obama will win big To the editor, My thanks to Nancy Parsons for trying nicely to tell Steve Earle he has a problem. He first endorsed Mr.Cain, then Newt Gingrich for president, not one word about R-money. He knows he’s fighting a losing battle, as president Obama will win by a large
margin. He gets all his information on Fox News and calls them facts. As a person I like Steve Earle but still say his letters are all recycled horse manure. Henry Osmer Hill

New Meredith restaurant has family’s cooking their own breakfasts right at the table BY ADAM DRAPCHO THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
MEREDITH — Griddle in the Middle, a new restaurant created by a familiar face, puts the customer in the chef’s seat thanks to a cooking element placed in the center of each table. Jim Goren, veteran restaurateur, wasn’t surprised how popular the concept has been among families with children. Instead, he’s been caught off-guard by his new restaurant’s ability to bring out the youngster in customers of all ages. Goren has been in the local restaurant business for 35 years, first with the ice cream shop J.B Scoops, then with the now-closed Grill 25 in Moultonborough, and most recently Flurries, a food and ice cream stand in the village run by his wife Barbara. When J.B. Scoops was first opened, Goren enjoyed a relative scarcity of competition in the local ice cream market. Since then, it seems, competitors have appeared on nearly every corner around the lake and he’s seen his business tick downward as a result. At the same time, he was feeling ready for a new challenge. So, this year, he decided to close J. B. Scoops and, in its place, open a restaurant based on an idea he’d been chewing on for a couple of years. Goren’s germ of thought started when a friend, recently returned from a Florida vacation, told him of a restaurant where customers were able to cook their own pancakes. “What a fantastic idea,” he said,
and decided to take the concept even further. With help from his son Kyle, Goren had a dozen custom-designed tables built, each with a cut-out in the middle with enough room for a recessed electric griddle. Keeping a strong family thread, Kyle’s wife Sarah is helping manage the operation. All-you-can-eat pancake breakfasts are priced by the person. Once a party is seated, wait staff flips a switch to turn on the griddle and brings out a pitcher of either buttermilk or gluten-free buckwheat batter, and selections from a broad menu of toppings, ranging from the traditional blueberries and bananas to the unusual, pistachios or coconut. In addition to pancakes, Goren’s Griddle eatery also offers eggs, home fries, toast, sausage, bacon and other griddle-friendly breakfast standards. Those who arrive around lunch time can grill a cheese sandwich. Goren said restaurant employees are trained to act as friendly coaches for customers who might be a little spatula-shy. “The servers are an integral part,” he said. Even those who harbor some initial anxiety about flipping their own flapjacks are soon smiling and laughing as they go about their business. “Guests have a social experience, talking about it, having fun doing it. What I’m providing is social interactions,” said Goren. see next page

Investigation into near drowning at sand bar continues SANBORNTON — The N.H. Marine Patrol continues to investigate the circumstances surrounding the near drowning of a Tilton man on the afternoon of July 4. According to various reports, Michael Edwards, 45, was boating with some friends who were at anchor along the popular sand bar located just north of the Mosquito Bridge over Lake Winnisquam when the incident occurred. Marine Patrol Sgt. Crystal McLain said her officers got a call through dispatch to respond to the sand bar. She said she was under the impression that Edwards was out of the water and was initially being taken to shore by a private vessel but said Marine Patrol was on site and assisting. Arriving at shore, Edwards was taken by Belmont Fire Rescue to Lakes Region General Hospital where he was transported by ambulance to
Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon. Belmont Fire Chief Dave Parenti said the incoming storm prevented Edwards from being flown by helicopter. She said her officers are working to identify and interview anyone who may have been on the sandbar and saw what happened. When asked if it could be a criminal matter, McLain said it was too early in the investigation to make any determinations. She also said she did not know if alcohol was involved. A spokesperson from Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center said Edwards was not on the list of people for whom she could release any information. Anyone with any information is asked to call the N.H. Marine Patrol at 293-2037 and ask for Sgt. McLain. — Gail Ober
from preceding page There are also practical advantages. Cooked orders don’t have to sit under heat lamps as busy wait staff struggle to keep up, instead customers cook pancakes as they’re ready for them and they’re always delivered piping hot to the plate. In the month-and-a-half since Griddle in the Middle opened, Goren has seen his idea vindicated with tables full of happy diners. “I honestly thought this would be a place where you’d have a bunch of families and kids,” he said. Goren’s certainly had plenty of those, but he’s also seen an equal number of adult-only parties come to have their own fun. “I
thought it would be weighted on the other side.” Even more surprising was how busy he was during Bike Week. J.B. Scoops would close during the June motorcycle rally, as bikers would typically only visit the restaurant to use the restroom. While they didn’t want an ice cream cone, Goren found motorcyclists were hungry for an unusual and filling breakfast experience. “I wasn’t sure, but those guys had a good time,” he said. Griddle in the Middle will be open from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m., every day of the summer. Hours may be adjusted for the fall, and Goren wasn’t sure if the business would be open through the winter.

Gilford asking county to seriously study concept of a regional police dispatch service BY GAIL OBER

GILFORD — Selectmen have requested the Belknap County Commissioners and the 18-member N.H. House delegation to appropriate resources to study regionalizing police dispatch services. Fire service dispatch already operates on a regional basis. The letter making the request was signed by selectmen Wednesday night and made available yesterday after it was sent to the county administrator. For the second time in three years, selectmen also asked the County Commission to “encourage the county to impose a fee system for dispatch services that are provided to municipalities base on the actual costs incurred by county taxpayers.” They said, in their opinion, it is “inherently unfair” to communities like Laconia and Gilford that provide 24-hour police dispatch services within their own police budgets. All Belknap County communities, except Laconia and Gilford, use the Sheriff’s Department for some or all of their police dispatch. The topic was first broached in 2010 when Gilford was short one dispatcher and during one of the so-called Belknap County conversations asked commissioners to absorb the midnight to 8 a.m. shift for the town. At the time, Sheriff Craig Wiggin said he would be more than willing to take over the dispatching but needed a little lead time work out the logistics with alarm companies and to assess his own personnel needs. In the interim, through funds made available through the federal stimulus program, the sherTHRIFT from page one ture and household items. It also is a supporter of the many ministries run at The Salvation Army Corps on Union Ave, including emergency assistance, soup kitchen, food pantry and youth programs. Captain Sally Warren, who is the corps officer at The Salvation Army, said, “This really comes at a bad time for our community for we have been seeing a large

increase of need for assistance. The sad thing is, we could have probably helped the folks that broke in more, if they came and requested help.” Warren said the store has thrived due to the outstanding support of the local community. “We thank everyone for their patronage and donations,” she said. “We now ask you to come along side us as we recover from this ordeal. Donations are accepted Monday-Saturday 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. or donors can call to arrange a pick-up. A small red kettle will be at the register for those wishing to make a monetary donation.

iff’s department has upgraded its dispatch system although there are some outstanding issues regarding the use of the new tower on Belknap Mountain. Police Chief Kevin Keenan told selectmen Wednesday night that he and Wiggin had met for about three hours earlier that day he “was very cooperative” about working doing a study about regionalizing police dispatch services. Wiggin said the county already has a regional dispatch service and that it is not necessary to spend money on an outside consultant to come in and tell them what they already know. “If they want us to dispatch for them, all they need to do is ask. We can handle it, contrary to their assertions otherwise. However, they need to get their act together and direct Kevin to spend the necessary funds to forward telephone lines, alarm systems, etc. to us if and when they shut down at various times like several other departments do,” he said. As to assessing fees for services, it is the County Commissioners and the County Delegation who would make that determination, not the Sheriff’s Department, said Wiggin. In June of 2011, Commissioner Ed Philpot said the services provided by the county did not come on an “a la carte menu” and the Commission dismissed a similar request from Gilford. Philpot reiterated his position at Wednesday morning’s commissioner’s meeting. As to the latest request, County Administrator Debra Shackett said she had received it yesterday and it will be on the next agenda.

Sanbornton man charged with leaving accident scene GILMANTON — Police have charged a Sanbornton man with conduct after an accident and breach of bail after he allegedly hit a tree with his pickup and ran away. In a media statement issued yesterday, Patrol Officer Matt Currier said police were called to an accident in the area of 1116 Middle Route at 7:20 p.m. Wednesday evening and were told by witnesses the driver, later identified as John T. Dodge, 60, of Sanbornton, had left. The front and side of his 1986 Chevy K20 pickup CHURCH from page one $382,150 that bankruptcy trustee Steve Notinger claims were the proceeds of fraudulent transfers. In the months after the mortgage company failed, the SEC and the trustees had estimated either FRM or Scott Farah had transferred about $669,000 to the church. The Center Harbor Christian Church has defended the suit brought agains it, saying the transfers were charitable contributions by Scott Farah and were accepted as such in good faith by the church. If the proposed settlement is accepted by the judge, this would end the suit filed against the church by Notinger. Because the church has no liquid assets, the trustees and seemingly Pastor Farah, have agreed that the church would give the trustees a promissory note for $382,150 backed by a mortgage on the building and property at 80 Bean Road and mortgages on two properties also owned by the church in a subdivision on Colonial Drive. Pastor Farah, through his attorney Earland McLetchie, signed the proposed settlement in April and it was forwarded to Notinger on May 14. Neither could be reached Friday for comment. The proposed agreement — there will be a hearing on the proposal on August 13 in N.H. Federal Bankruptcy Court in Manchester — allows the church to stay in the building for one year while both par-
were damaged. Police officers from Belmont and Gilford’s K-9 Agbar assisted Gilmanton police in locating Dodge, who was taken into custody at 8:55 p.m. Dodge was taken to Lakes Region General Hospital for minor injuries that included a dog bite. Currier said speed and alcohol appear to be factors in the crash but police are still investigating. He said additional charges may be forthcoming. — Gail Ober
ties make attempts to market and sell the properties. Both must agree on any sale price and the real estate commission is capped at six percent. The motion before the court indicates there is a mortgage of about $150,000 to Bank of New Hampshire that will be satisfied first if the property is sold. Pastor Farah is required to continue making the mortgage payment and to keep the building insured. The church may continue to operate the Center Harbor Food Pantry but must not sublet any portion of the property. Should the properties be sold, the proceeds will be split such that the bankruptcy trustee will get 65-percent of the net proceeds and the church will get 35-percent. The maximum amount the bankruptcy trustee can get is the $382,150. If the church building and property and adjacent lots aren’t sold within one year of the execution date of the proposed settlement, the trustee becomes the sole agent and will be allowed to sell the properties as he sees fit. In June of 2010, Pastor Farah and his wife Barbara were forced to sell their family home on Alpine Drive in Moultonborough after Federal Bankruptcy Judge J. Michael Deasy ordered Pastor Farah’s bankruptcy be jointly administered with the FRM/ CL&M bankruptcy. Although the sale was for close see next page

FOOTBALL from page one second and third seeds will vie for places in the championship game. The three divisions are based on enrollment as of October 2010, the most recent data apparently available. Division I includes schools with more than 1,200 students, Division II schools with between 625 and 1,199 students and Division III schools with less than 625 students. Without expressing an opinion on the plan, Coach Craig Kozens of Laconia said by reducing the number of divisions, the disparities in the size of the schools within them will be greater. “There may be fairness issues,” he remarked. Laconia will play in the North Conference of Division II, which includes Hanover, Kennett (Conway), Lebanon and Plymouth. The South Conference consists of John Stark (Weare), Milford, Souhegan (Amherst), Trinity (Manchester) and Windham; the West Conference of Con-Val (Peterborough), Hollis Brookline, Kearsarge (North Sutton), Monadnock (Swanzey) and Sanborn (Kingston); and the Central Conference of Kingswood (Wofeboro), Merrimack Valley (Penacook), Pembroke, Portsmouth and St. Thomas (Dover).

lin and Newfound. The South Conference consists of Pelham, Campbell, Bow and Somersworth;the West Conference of Raymond, Epping-Newmarket, Bishop Brady and Farmington-Nute; and the East Conference of Mascoma, Newport, Fall Mountain and Stevens. All 17 teams in Division III will be drawn from Divisions V and VI in 2012. The enrollment within the division ranges from 362 at Bishop Brady to 656 at Farmington-Nute and averages 510. Inter-Lakes claimed the title in Division VI in 2009 and 2011. All ten teams, including Laconia, playing in Division IV in 2012 will play in Division II in 2013, along with seven teams from Division III and three from Division V. The enrollment of the ten schools from Division IV (Laconia, Hanover, Kennett, Kingswood, John Stark, Lebanon, Windham, Plymouth, St. Thomas and Trinity), ranges from 417 at Trinity to 857 at Kennett and averages 699, about 11-percent more than 628 enrolled at Laconia. The enrollment of the seven schools from Division III (Portsmouth, Milford, Hollis-Brookline, Con Val, Pembroke, Souhegan and Merrimack Valley) ranges from 857 at Souhegan to 1,085 at Portsmouth and averages 925. The enrollment at the three Division V schools (Kearsarge, Sanborn and Monadnock) averages 647. After agreeing to continue with six divisions in 2012, the NHIAA directed its football committee to recommend a configuration with five or fewer divisions for 2013. Kozens said that the aim was to reduce the number and enhance the significance of championships. With six divisions, the champions are the best of nine or ten teams as opposed to the best of 20 teams with three divisions. Proponents of the scheme believe it will fewer rematches in the playoffs where a team could play as many as two games against teams they did not face during the regular season. In its newsletter, the NHIAA said that it will experiment with the format for one year. from preceding page to $1-million, there was an outstanding mortgage to Deutsche Bank for $830,000. About $20,000 went into the bankruptcy estate. Neither Robert or Barbara Farah, a retired school teacher, were criminally charged in what is now known as one of the largest Ponzi schemes in New Hampshire history.

Kyle Busch wins pole for Sunday’s race; Johnson will start 7th LOUDON, N.H. (AP) — Kyle Busch was the last driver to go in Friday’s Sprint Cup qualifying, and he made the most of the opportunity. Busch posted a lap of 133.417 mph to capture his first pole position of the season for Sunday’s race at the New Hampshire Motor Speedway. Kasey Kahne, who drove 133.403 mph on the fastest of his two laps, will start alongside Busch. “It was a good lap for us, but I thought I was probably going to be third or fourth,” said Busch, who won the 2006 NASCAR race at Loudon and will be starting on from the front row for the third time this year. Busch nearly brushed the wall near the end of his qualifying run when “the car slipped right at the last second,” he said. “There’s no mark on the car, so all is good there.” He went on to his ninth career pole. Denny Hamlin was in line for the top position with a lap of 133.399 mph until Kahne pushed him back a spot in the 44-car field.
Hamlin had back spasms last week that cause him to skip the Nationwide Series race at Daytona International Speedway and shelved him for practice for the Sprint Cup stop. But he felt better Friday. “Back spasms come and go. Obviously, last week was a bad week for it,” Hamlin said. “(I) don’t feel any lingering symptoms from it.” Rounding out the top 10 were Martin Truex Jr., Clint Bowyer, Ryan Newman, Jimmie Johnson, Jeff Gordon, Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Tony Stewart. The top 10 qualifying times were very close, from Busch’s lap of 28.548 seconds to Stewart’s of 28.651. And only .047 seconds separated the top eight. “As far as the times, everyone is really close, so you have to go for all you can get,” Kahne said. “I was aggressive on the first lap.” Matt Kenseth, who leads the Sprint Cup series in points, was 27th with a time of 29.023.
PATERNO from page 2 against Paterno, then-President Graham Spanier, athletic director Tim Curley and now-retired vice president Gary Schultz. Oliver noted that a former top official in the Philadelphia Archdiocese was convicted of that charge in June for allowing a suspected pedophile priest to be around children. “If you look at what happened here, it’s very clear that they were aware that they had a pedophile on their campus,” Oliver said.
Will Spade, a former Philadelphia prosecutor who worked on a grand jury investigation of priests about a decade ago, agreed: “Spanier, Paterno, Schultz and Curley are arguably responsible for endangering all of those kids that were abused later.” So far, the only two figures arrested in the alleged cover-up are Curley and Schultz. They were charged last fall with perjury and failure to report suspected child abuse and are awaiting trial. They have denied any wrongdoing.

ROMNEY from page 2 during that period. That, in turn, goes to the core issue of the race for the White House in dreary economic times, Romney’s claim that as a former businessman, he has the ability to create jobs and finally pull the country out of a downturn that has lingered throughout Obama’s term. The Obama campaign has criticized Romney as running a firm that pioneered job outsourcing. Some Securities and Exchange Commission documents have surfaced suggesting Romney played an active role in the Boston-based company through 2002. The filings with the SEC place Romney in charge of Bain Capital from 1999 to 2001, the period in which it outsourced jobs and ran companies that fell into bankruptcy. Obama himself had stepped into the controversy a few hours before Romney’s comments were aired. “Now, my understanding is that Mr. Romney attested to the SEC multiple times that he was the chairman, CEO and president of Bain Capital. And I think most Americans figure if you’re the chairman, CEO and president of a company that you are responsible for what the company does,” Obama said in an interview with WJLA-TV in Virginia as he campaigned across the battleground state.
Ortiz homers as Red Sox beat Tampa Bay 3-1
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — David Ortiz hit his 23rd homer and Pedro Ciriaco had three hits and drove in two runs Friday night, helping the Boston Red Sox beat the Tampa Bay Rays 3-1. Franklin Morales (2-2) allowed two hits over five scoreless innings to win for the second time since the left-hander was moved into the starting rotation last month. The left-hander walked three and struck out five before being replaced by Scott Atchison, who yielded an unearned run in the sixth.
Ortiz hit a solo homer off Jeremy Hellickson (4-6) in the first inning to extend his hitting streak to a season-best eight games. Ciriaco has started four games since his promotion from the minor leagues last week and is 10 for 12 with six RBIs over the past three. The fourth-place Red Sox lost six of seven games entering the All-Star break. But with the win before a crowd of 29,089 at Tropicana Field, they pulled within one game of the third-place Rays in the AL East standings.

Young said, Gary Hammond, the owner and manager of the station, called to “tell me to take the day off and I packed up and went home.” Hammond could not be reached for comment, but Young said that Hammond told him that he would tackle the problem Friday evening in hopes of putting the station back on the air in time to broadcast today’s programming, which includes four hours (8 to noon) of “the Advocates.”.

Evening of jazz & blues at Pitman’s Freight Room LACONIA — Pianist/vocalist Heather Pierson and Joe Aliperti on alto saxophone will present an evening of jazz and blues at Pitman’s Freight Room on Thursday, July 19th. Heather is a veteran performer in the Mount Washington Valley. Known to many as the leader of The Heather Pierson Quartet, she is also the house pianist at The White Mountain Hotel & Resort in North Conway and appears regularly at the Omni Resort Hotel at Mount Washington in Bretton Woods. She recently returned from New Orleans where she performed at the legendary Preservation Hall and studied traditional jazz under David Boeddinghaus, musical director and pianist for the award winning documentary film *Crumb*. Her latest CD release, Make It Mine, is a collection of 16 songs recorded in rural Maine and mastered by Grammy-award winning Bob Ludwig of Gateway
Mastering. Her forthcoming CD, The Open Road - a collection of her unique and emotive solo piano compositions - is scheduled for a fall 2012 release. In a career that has thus far spanned over three decades, Heather’s performances and songwriting capture the depth and character of her heartland roots and the wildness and beauty of her current New England home. Hailing from Long Island, NY, Joe Aliperti learned to play sax and guitar at a young age. After attending college at Cornell University, he settled in the Mount Washington Valley and is now studying saxophone and jazz improvisation with Mike Sakash. He has been performing with The Heather Pierson Quartet since early 2012 and his soulful playing is the perfect complement to Heather’s versatile stylings. Admission at Pitman’s is $10 per person, BYOB.

Get Fuzzy
By Holiday Mathis you, that person probably will get very attached to you. This and other tricks of reverse psychology will work swimmingly for you now. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The law of attraction suggests that trying to do something leads to more trying and less doing. Instead of trying, decide that it’s as good as done, and assign your body the task of making sure. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ll someday have the sweet reward of making someone sorry for the way they treated you long ago. Today will bring a glimpse of that delicious justice. The question of “Who’s laughing now?” may come to mind. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Even when you’re alone, you are tied up in thoughts of another. Solitude isn’t the same thing as having a moment to yourself. That can only come when you forget about others entirely. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The saying goes that houseguests, like fish, begin to smell after three days. You may have a King Neptune situation on your hands, but a little patience and understanding will soon put everything back on an even keel. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 14). Your professional progress this year will be impressive to others and personally quite satisfying. Your admiration is felt and returned in August. You’ll get mundane projects out of the way in September so you can take off on a fantastic journey. November brings the chance to bond with loved ones in special ways. Aries and Gemini people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 20, 1, 24, 38 and 17.
TUNDRA
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Ever get the sense that your life is so interesting that outsiders would be fascinated by it if they ever could get a proper view of what’s going on with you? That “sense” is the overriding feeling of the day. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’ll feel a bit like your beliefs are under scrutiny and on display. It takes confidence to stand costumed in a beautiful pose while people try to understand your point of view. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You don’t hide or deny your heart. Instead, you find out what it wants and try to address those needs in the best way possible within your given circumstances. This is your way to health. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Improving and creating can be somewhat of an obsession now, so keep in mind that not everything needs improvement. What you leave alone makes a lovely statement, too. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You firmly hold that it’s nobody else’s job to make you happy. With the responsibility squarely on your shoulders, the world becomes your personal theme park. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ve been cautioned before about standing on the sidelines instead of jumping into the game. But today you can make a case for a sideline position, and your place there is supportive, wise and appropriate. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Have some compassion for the control freak in your life. Control issues signify insecurity and a belief that the world is not essentially supportive. Sad, really. Your steadfast love could help matters. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

––––––– ALMANAC –––––––
SATURDAY PRIME TIME
Today is Saturday, July 14, the 196th day of 2012. There are 170 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On July 14, 1912, American folk singer-songwriter Woody Guthrie (“This Land Is Your Land”) was born in Okemah, Okla. On this date: In 1789, during the French Revolution, citizens of Paris stormed the Bastille prison and released the seven prisoners inside. In 1853, Commodore Matthew Perry relayed to Japanese officials a letter from President Millard Fillmore requesting trade relations. (Fillmore’s term of office had already expired by the time the letter was delivered.) In 1881, outlaw William H. Bonney Jr., alias “Billy the Kid,” was shot and killed by Sheriff Pat Garrett in Fort Sumner, N.M. In 1902, the original, centuries-old Campanile di San Marco in Venice, Italy, collapsed. (The bell tower was rebuilt within a decade.) In 1911, Harry N. Atwood became the first pilot to land an airplane (a Wright Model B biplane) on the grounds of the White House after flying in from Boston; he was greeted by President William Howard Taft. In 1913, Gerald Rudolph Ford Jr., the 38th president of the United States, was born Leslie Lynch King Jr. in Omaha, Neb. In 1921, Italian-born anarchists Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti were convicted in Dedham, Mass., of murdering a shoe company paymaster and his guard. (Sacco and Vanzetti were executed six years later.) In 1960, British researcher Jane Goodall arrived at the Gombe Stream Reserve in the Tanganyika Territory to begin her famous study of chimpanzees in the wild. In 1972, the State Department criticized actress Jane Fonda for making antiwar radio broadcasts in Hanoi, calling them “distressing.” Jean Westwood was appointed the first female chair of the Democratic National Committee. In 1976, Jimmy Carter won the Democratic presidential nomination at the party’s convention in New York. One year ago: A federal judge in Washington, D.C. declared a mistrial in baseball star Roger Clemens’ perjury trial over inadmissible evidence shown to jurors. (Clemens was acquitted in a retrial.) Today’s Birthdays: Actor Dale Robertson is 89. Actor Harry Dean Stanton is 86. Actress Nancy Olson is 84. Actress Polly Bergen is 82. Former football player and actor Rosey Grier is 80. Actor Vincent Pastore is 66. Former music company executive Tommy Mottola (muh-TOH’luh) is 63. Rock musician Chris Cross (Ultravox) is 60. Actor Jerry Houser is 60. Actor-director Eric Laneuville is 60. Actor Stan Shaw is 60. Movie producer Scott Rudin is 54. Singer-guitarist Kyle Gass is 52. Country musician Ray Herndon (McBride and the Ride) is 52. Actress Jane Lynch (TV: “Glee”) is 52. Actor Jackie Earle Haley is 51. Actor Matthew Fox is 46. Rock musician Ellen Reid (Crash Test Dummies) is 46. Rock singermusician Tanya Donelly is 46. Actress Missy Gold is 42. Olympic gold medal snowboarder Ross Rebagliati is 41. Rhythm-and-blues singer Tameka Cottle (Xscape) is 37. Country singer Jamey Johnson is 37. Actor Scott Porter is 33.

make my parents realize that I’m not the bad guy? -- Normal Sister Dear Normal: It is not too late for Allie to get psychological help, and she could surely use it. Your parents are doing her no favors by coddling her into total dependence out of guilt and sympathy. This encourages her to remain a victim of her past. Other than canceling the entire wedding, you will never please them, so stop bending over backward. Express sympathy and then ignore their demands. Dear Annie: My wife and I just celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary. We have two beautiful boys. We’ve known each other since we were teenagers. I find myself thinking about what type of husband and father I have been. I am a police officer, and with this career comes a list of special stressors. I know that I never have been as romantic as my wife would like. My wife does the majority of housework, laundry and child rearing. While I play with my boys, my wife is doing housework. When I tuck the boys into bed, she is doing the laundry or making lunches for kids. Even though I am not outwardly as affectionate as I should be, not a minute passes without my wanting my wife and kids to be happy, healthy and safe. My wife has put up with all of my shortcomings and the stress that I have surely put on her. I just wanted the chance to say that even though it may look like I don’t notice everything she does, I do. I appreciate the love she gives me, even when my hard-nosed attitude makes her ill. Happy anniversary, Charlotte, and I promise to try to be more if you promise to stick around for the rest of my life. -- Empty Head, Full Heart Dear Husband: You sound like a keeper. Happy anniversary.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Annie: My fiance and I cut corners for four years so we could have a nice wedding. We didn’t ask either set of parents for money, and they didn’t offer. We’re footing the entire bill, including the formal wear for the attendants. The problem is my 34-year-old socially awkward sister, “Allie.” Allie was hospitalized 20 years ago when she was brutally beaten by some older teenagers. She never received psychological help. My mother pays Allie’s rent and all of her bills. Family vacations have been cancelled to keep Allie comfortable. My parents missed my college graduation because Allie was nervous about fitting into the airline seat. If I outperformed her academically, my parents asked me to downplay my success so Allie wouldn’t feel bad. When I got engaged, my mother asked me to skip the engagement party and shower because those things “make Allie anxious.” I lost 190 pounds for health reasons. Allie makes nasty comments, saying I’m only having a wedding to show off my new body. I bent over backward to find Allie a flattering plus-size maid-of-honor dress and was so thrilled when she finally found one she liked that I bought it for her, even though it was twice the cost of my wedding dress. Now she’s decided she hates the dress, and she told the entire bridal party that I’m a Bridezilla, while I’m stressing myself out to make sure she feels comfortable. Allie has picked fights with my new in-laws and caused two bridesmaids to back out of the wedding. Last week, my mother bawled me out for being “domineering” and said I should “consider Allie’s feelings.” Annie, I have been considering Allie’s feelings since I was 10. My heart breaks for what happened to Allie, but can’t I have just one day where people are thinking about me? I’ve suggested family counseling, but they refuse to go. How do I

Lakes Region Real Estate Market Report / Roy Sanborn
Lakes Region Waterfront 2012 1st Half Report June was a fantastic month as far as Winnipesaukee waterfront sales were concerned. There were 17 sales at an average price of $940,500 and seven of those sales were over the million dollar mark. That compares to 12 sales last June with 10 of those over a million resulting in a higher $1.78-million average. For the first half of the year there have been a total of 63 sales on the big lake at an average price of $909,627 with a total dollar volume of $57.3-million. That’s a 54-percent increase in total sales this year so far compared to the first six months of 2011 when there were 41 sales at an average price of $1.17-million and a total sales volume of $48-million. I’d say that we ought to be pretty happy with these numbers! The least expensive sale on the lake (well kind of on the lake) was up in Moultonborough at 279 Paradise Drive. This home is actually on Shannon Brook that provides direct access to Winnipesaukee. This five room, two bedroom, one bath home was completely redone in 2005 and has new flooring, a remodeled bath, new windows, and a new owner. The house sits on a .13-acre lot with 72-feet of frontage and two docks and is a short walk down to the Balmoral beach, clubhouse, and tennis courts. This home was originally listed at $275,000, reduced to $219,900, and sold for $205,000 after 239 days on the market. It is currently assessed at $190,500. This was a pretty affordable way to get on the Big Lake. The home closest to last month’s median price point of $675,000 was the property at 14 West Point Road in Moultonborough. This home is a 1,985-squarefoot, four bedroom, two bath, prow front contemporary built in 1971. It has had recent upgrades including a new kitchen, baths, carpets, and appliances. It sits on a level .94-acre lot with 100-feet of sandy frontage and a dock. This home was first listed in April of 2009 for $735,000, again in March of 2010 for $695,000, and then again in October of 2010 at $675,000. The property was reduced down to $599,000 and sold for $580,000 72 days after the final price reduction. The total time on the market for this home was 1,003 days. It has a current tax assessment of $568,000.. The largest sale on the lake in June was at 44 Knoll Point Road in Moultonborough. This spectacular 4,983-square-foot Adirondack has three large bedroom suites, a wonderful great room with a stone fireplace and cathedral ceilings, a gourmet kitchen, a lower level family room with another fieldstone fireplace, wine cellar, a wrap around mahogany deck, and screened porch overlooking the water. There is an apartment over the two car detached garage plus a 30’ x 40’ heated barn for the mechanical horses. There is an outside stone pizza oven and summer kitchen to entertain your guests who will be enjoying the 175-feet of water frontage. There is a large,

U-shaped covered deep water dock for all the water toys. This home is spectacular and I expect the new owners are ecstatic. This property was listed originally at $2,495,000 in July of 2009, relisted in April of 2011 at $2,195,000, and sold for $1.9-million after a total of 875 days. This property is currently assessed at $2,155,300. There were two sales in June on Winnisquam bringing the total sales for the first six months to seven at an average sales price of $439,429. This compares to 13 in the first half of 2011 at an average of $470,204. The largest sale was at 228 Leighton Ave. North in Laconia. This year round home built in 1995 has 1,712-square-feet of recently renovated living space with an open floor plan, two bedrooms, two baths, an eat-in kitchen, cathedral ceilings, skylights, natural wood work, and a wood fireplace. Outside on the .41-acre lot there is a two car garage, 100-feet of frontage with westerly views, level sandy beach, dock, and boat house. This property was listed for $548,900 and went pending after only 26 days at $534,000. It is currently assessed for $595,800. Great deal, I think! Up on Squam, there was only one sale but it was a nice one. The property is located at 414 High Haith Road in Moultonborough and it is a 3,548-squarefoot Adirondack that was custom built in 2007. It has that old lake home feel with lots of wood, chestnut doors, alder trim, high end appliances in the gourmet kitchen, cathedral ceilings with exposed beams, massive stone fireplaces, and four bedroom suites. The list goes on and on. Outside, the 2.8-acre lot has extensive professional landscaping with 240feet of frontage and a dock. This home was listed at $2.995-million and quickly found a buyer in just 10 days at $2.95 million which is also the tax assessed value. Great homes sell quickly! This home brings the total number of sales on Squam to a total of just four for the first six months this year which equals the total for the same period last year. So Big Winni is up, little Winni is down, and Squam is breaking even. How are the Red Sox doing?

Household hazardous waste collections in Lakes Region July 28, August 4
MEREDITH — On Saturday July 28 and Saturday August 4, twenty-four Lakes Region communities will participate in one of the longest running and most successful household hazardous waste collection programs in New England. Four collection sites will be open each day from 8:30 a.m. to noon (Belmont, Franklin, Gilford, and Meredith on July 28 and Bristol, Laconia, Moultonborough, and Ossipee on August 4). Residents and property owners in the 24 participating communities may bring up to ten gallons or 50 pounds of household hazardous products in for safe disposal. The Lakes Region Planning Commission in 1986 pioneered a regional program to prevent injury and environmental pollution from household hazardous waste. Every year since then, the LRPC has helped coordinate annual household hazardous waste collections for communities throughout the region interested in participating in the shared collection rogram. This program employs a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency approved waste transporter which collects and safely disposes of household hazardous waste. The participating communities for the collection consist of: Alexandria, Andover, Belmont, Bridgewater, Bristol, Center Harbor, Effingham, Franklin, Freedom, Gilford, Gilmanton, Hebron, Hill, Holderness, Laconia, Meredith, Moultonborough, New Hampton, Northfield, Ossipee, Sanbornton, Sandwich, Tamworth, and Tilton. Information on collection sites and accepted materials can be found at http://www.lakesrpc.org/ services_hhw.asp or by calling LRPC at 279-8171. Please note that latex paint is not considered a hazardous product.
Tea ceremony Thursday for Community Garden Club of Meredith
MEREDITH — Members of the Community Garden Club of Meredith will experience a traditional tea ceremony Thursday, July 19, at 1 p.m. at Satori, a Tea Garden at Chi-Lin, Asian Art and Antiques Gallery, Lake Street, Meredith presented by owner, Suzanne Lee. The Gallery was recently featured in New Hampshire Magazine as an example of a Stroll Garden. Although common in Japan, they are rarely found in the West. Stroll Gardens are more participatory and are designed as a sensual experience and invite contemplation. Guests will enjoy freshly brewed tea and goodies and stroll through the hidden sculpture gardens. Reservations are required; call (279-5065) to make reservations. There is a limit of 25 and the fee is $5. Chartered in 1951, the Community Garden Club of Meredith, a volunteer organization, strives to promote horticultural education, civic beautification and conservation. Guests are welcome at all programs. Dedicated members volunteer and tend gardens in and about Meredith and people can enjoy the results of their hard work and creativity at the Meredith Town Hall, the Chamber of Commerce, the triangle at the corner of Pleasant Street and Route #25, the Meredith Community Center Upper Garden, the Meredith Center Fire Station and Childs Park and Flurries. The Garden Club has supported: the annual Altrusa Festival of Trees, Interlakes Community Caregivers, The Circle Program, the Meredith Community Center Garden Project, the First Congregational Church of Meredith, Lakes Region Conservation Trust, the Center Harbor, Meredith, and Moultonborough libraries and Page Pond and Forest conservation campaign effort with the proceeds of their fundraisers.
