GILMANTON — The School Board and the Gilmanton Education Association jointly presented a renegotiated two-year collective bargaining agreement to the Budget Committee last night that calls for no salary increases in the upcoming school year and a combined $40,349 salary increase in 2013-2014.

The business of evictions soaks up lots of energy in market like Laconia BY GAIL OBER
THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — In some ways, landlord Mary Davis of Boston got off easy with her deadbeat tenants, even though she never received what should have been five months rent. Davis, a widow who owns two condominiums locally, said after her husband passed away, she decided to rent the one she and
her husband formerly used on weekends. She said the second condo has been rented to the same people for years. “We used to come up all the time,” she said but, with the housing market soft, she said she chose to rent rather than sell this particular Tree Top Circle condominium. All Davis said she ever got from her two newest tenants, who she described as a young married couple who were just start-

LACONIA — The Belknap County Commission will consider an offer from the state to purchase the former Laconia State School property off North Main Street for $1,760,000 when it meets next Wednesday morning. Ed Philpot of Laconia, chairman of the commission, declined to comment yesterday about any interest the county may have in acquiring the property. City Councilor Matt Lahey (Ward 2), who has led the city’s effort to acquire the site, said yesterday that he hoped the county commission would not only decline the state’s offer but defer to the city and support its bid for the property. The state’s offer to the county is not only far less than its $10-million offer to the city, which was refused, but also $400,000 less than the city’s counter-offer to the state. Moreover, while state offered see STATE SCHOOL page 10

600-year-old bras found in Austrian castle
VIENNA (AP) — A revolutionary discovery is rewriting the history of underwear: Some 600 years ago, women wore bras. The University of Innsbruck said Wednesday that archeologists found four linen bras dating from the Middle Ages in an Austrian castle. Fashion experts describe the find as surprising because the bra had commonly been thought to be only little more than 100 years old as women abandoned the tight corset. Instead, it appears the bra came first, followed by the corset, followed by the reinvented bra. One specimen in particular “looks exactly like a (modern) brassiere,” says Hilary Davidson, fashion curator for the London Museum. “These are amazing finds.” Although the linen garments were unearthed in 2008, they did not make news until now says Beatrix Nutz, the archaeologist responsible for the discovery. Researching the items and carbon dating them to make sure they were genuine took some time. She delivered a lecture see BRAS page 10

No charges for soldiers involved in Secret Service prostitution scandal WASHINGTON (AP) — Seven Army soldiers and two Marines have received administrative punishments, but are not facing criminal charges, for their part in the Secret Service prostitution scandal in Colombia this year, The Associated Press has learned. U.S. officials said that one Air Force member has been reprimanded but cleared of any violations of the Military Code of Justice. And final decisions are pending on two Navy sailors, whose cases remain under legal review. U.S. Southern Command, headed by Gen.
Douglas Fraser, conducted the investigation into the military members’ involvement in the April incident, which brought shame to the elite presidential protection force and unearthed revelations of other episodes of misconduct within the Secret Service. The military service members, all enlisted personnel, were assigned to support the Secret Service in preparations for a visit to the coastal resort of Cartagena by President Barack Obama. All of the military had behind-the-scenes roles and were not directly involved in presidential security. The U.S. officials spoke about the inves-
tigation on condition of anonymity because the results have not been released. Military officials were expected to brief Congress members on the matter. Of the nine who were given administrative punishments, three have asked for courts martial, which would provide them with a public trial to contest the decision, U.S. Southern Command said in a statement. Military members have the right to turn down administrative punishments and instead seek trial. A dozen Secret Service officers, agents see SOLDIERS page 11
SOFIA, Bulgaria (AP) — Israel vowed to strike back at Iran for a brazen daylight bombing Wednesday that killed at least seven people on a bus full of Israeli tourists in Bulgaria. The bombing was the latest in a series of attacks attributed to Iran that have targeted Israelis and Jews overseas and threatened to escalate a shadow war between the two arch-enemies. Iran has denied involvement in the past but did not
comment on Wednesday’s attack. President Barack Obama termed it a “barbaric terrorist attack” and called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to pledge U.S. help in finding the perpetrators. The blast gutted the bus at the airport in the quiet Black Sea resort city of Burgas, some 400 kilometers (250 miles) east of the capital, Sofia, where the Israelis had just arrived on a charter flight from Tel Aviv car-
rying 154 people, including eight children. Black smoke billowed into the sky from the stricken bus after the bomb exploded. Young Israelis said they were just boarding when the blast ripped through the white vehicle in the airport parking lot. Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman said at least seven people were killed. “We were at the entrance of the bus and in a few seconds we heard a huge boom,” see BOMBING page 11
SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — A SkyWest Airlines pilot and murder suspect who stole an empty 50-passenger jet and crashed it as he drove it at a small Utah airport was found dead with a gunshot wound to his head about halfway down the
aircraft aisle, police said Wednesday. Brian Hedglin was wanted in the murder of his girlfriend in Colorado when he used a rug to scale the razor wire-topped fence at the St. George Municipal Airport early Tuesday. The plane crashed in an airport
parking lot before it got off the ground. Authorities were trying Wednesday to determine just how Hedglin gained access to the plane while the airport was closed, among other details. see PILOT page 11

Obamacare becoming a label of pride Here’s some useful advice from an old country saying: Never try to teach table manners to a pig — it doesn’t work, it’ll wear you out, and it just annoys the pig. The same advice goes for anyone who thinks they can teach even a bit of common sense to the preening political ideologues who’ve taken over the Republican Party and the U.S. House of Representatives. As we’ve seen in their incessant, pigheaded attacks on the health care reform law, their minds are not merely fogged up with extremist anti-government theories, they’re impervious to rational thought. They failed to defeat Obamacare in 2010, despite trying to scare old people with mindless lies about “death panels.” Now they’re trying to repeal the law by getting people to swallow their hogwash that it contains “a massive tax hike on the middle class.” Really? No. One, it’s not massive; two, it’s a payment for direct benefit that people will receive, namely decent health care coverage; three, very few people will have to pay the so-called “tax” at all; and four, many people and small business will get tax credits and federal assistance to offset the cost of coverage. Their greatest failure, however, is that they offer no alternative to Obamacare. During the debate on their latest attempt to repeal the law, a Democratic lawmaker asked for a copy of the GOP’s health care plan so he could read it aloud to other members. Silence in the chamber. The Republicans’ political slogan has been to “repeal and replace” Obama’s reform, but they’ve dropped the replace part, saying they can’t offer an alternative until they complete the repeal. No surprise — I doubt this bunch can walk and chew gun at the same time. Though they’re a tenacious bunch! Maybe not tenacious, more like dogmatic, obstinate and obtuse, too. Pigheaded — yeah, that’s it. So, once again, on July 11, GOP lawmakers threw a group hissy fit on the
floor of the House over the Affordable Care Act that Obama and the Democrats passed two years ago — a law the Supreme Court has just recently ruled to be constitutional. The House Repubs hate, hate, hate that law. So, all 244 GOP members pursed their lips in a collective pout and voted in lockstep to outright repeal the blanket-blank ACA. That’ll show Obama who’s boss, they crowed! Well, not really, since their “repeal” won’t pass the Senate, much less get past the president’s veto pen. But these pouty solons are not really interested in legislating — they’re into political peacocking, putting on a show for the fans in the far-right-wing bleachers. And apparently it’s an interminable farce, for this was the 31st time that they’ve voted to repeal the law! Thirty-one replays with the same do-nothing result. Don’t they have real work to do? At some point (probably back at about vote number 20 or 25), they crossed over from appearing ideologically steadfast ... to just plain stupid. They snidely assailed the health care reform as “Obamacare,” as though that’s a pejorative. But as the law has begun taking affect, more and more Americans are liking it a lot, because it produces real benefits for us. Start with the 30 million people who get help in affording prescription drugs, plus all of us who get some relief from the gouging and constant denial of coverage by monopolistic insurance giants, and Obamacare becomes a label of pride. If I were him, I’d run on it — and go after the petty politicos who’re trying to take away the benefits it provides for people. (Jim Hightower has been called American’s most popular populist. The radio commentator and former Texas Commissioner of Agriculture is author of seven books, including “There’s Nothing In the Middle of Road but Yellow Stripes and Dead Armadillos” and his new work, “Swim Against the Current: Even Dead Fish Can Go With The Flow”.)
I want to hear Sen. Forrester explain why she wants to limit freedom To the editor, I was delighted to read of the upcoming debates between State Senate District 2 candidates, Bob Lamb and Jeanie Forrester. Having this offered in multiple towns adds to the opportunity for N.H. voters to make an informed choice in November. I am particularly interested in hearing why Jeanie Forrester has consistently voted against the interests of the N.H. residents. She votes against our health and against protecting our air. She votes against schools: our town schools, community colleges and universities. Then she votes to cut the tobacco tax. This is inconceivable to me. We know that when tobacco costs increase, so do the numbers who quit. We also know that kids who continue
their education have significantly higher incomes and healthier lives than those that don’t. Why would Senator Forrester slash opportunities for kids and instead make it cheaper to smoke? I want to hear her answer these questions. I am also curious to have her tell me why she wants to limit our freedom? She votes to increase legislative powers, increase the need for photo ID and prohibits recording of a citizen’s encounter with police. This sounds more like the Gestapo than N.H., to me. I appreciate the opportunity to have these questions answered. I look forward to these debates and to hear the vision that Bob Lamb has for N.H. residents. I welcome a candidate who see next page
LETTERS Government-controlled health care is bankrupting countries To the editor, One marvels at the audacity of the falsehoods in The Citizen of Laconia’s July 12 editorial. Seeing a claim that Republicans refused to engage in the health care debate and that is why Obamacare is “flawed” makes one wonder if The Citizen is an arm of the Obama campaign. Republicans promoted things which are popular and have demonstrated success in reducing costs: tort reform, Health Savings Accounts, more competition, fewer mandates and bureaucratic regulations, full deductibility of health insurance premiums, returning health care “insurance” to the purpose of insurance, providing for unexpected events, and more personal responsibility especially by people who can afford, but don’t buy, insurance. The radical leftists who drafted Obamacare intended for government to control another one-sixth of the economy and they had the votes needed to force Obamacare on the American people. Conflicting ideas from neither Republicans nor Democrats were welcome. Democrat leadership scheduled the Obamcare vote before anyone could even read the 2700 page bill. As Speaker Pelosi said, “We need to pass the bill to see what it is in it.” Well, the American people see Obamacare, and we reject it! Obamacare is so bad, even many Democrats had to be bribed or lied to to get their votes. Remember things like the Louisiana Purchase, the Cornhusker KickBack, and the promises that President Obama made to Democrat Congressman Stupak, et al that Obamacare wouldn’t
cover abortions? President Obama lied repeatedly to the American people about Obamacare, its cost, effect on our insurance, coverage for illegal aliens, ability to keep our doctors, etc. The editorial claims, “Republicans should be pushing for reforms in the current law” rather than trying to repeal it. Even if Republicans had not tried to improve Obamacare, why should Republicans join Democrats in ignoring the will of the majority of the American people? We don’t want government controlling our health care! We want doctors to treat patients individually, without fear of punishment if a doctor believes a different treatment is best for the patient than that indicated by government bureaucrats. We don’t consent to being denied hip or knee replacements, or other treatments because of some board’s arbitrary criteria. Stroke victims must be treated immediately, not after the “ethics” panel gets around to deciding treatment. Any good features of Obamacare are built on a fatal flaw, government control of health care. Government controlled health care is bankrupting countries, killing some citizens and making others live in pain. The American people rejected Obamacare before Democrats forced it down our throats and, despite constantly repeated lies promoting Obamacare, we continue to reject it. Obamacare must be fully repealed. Doctors and patients, not bureaucrats, must be in control of health care. Don Ewing Meredith
Why is Alton wasting people’s time if nepotism is going to rule? To the editor, It has come to my knowledge that the town of Alton advertised in the Baysider (page B2 on March 15) for a seasonal town laborer. I have several friends who had hoped to be employed for this summer. Now I find out that a friend/relative of an employee from that department was hired instead. It appears that everyone who applied for that position wasted their time. Many
unemployed people have little funds to be driving around applying for a job that they won’t even be considered for. Perhaps there is no legal issue here but an ethical one, maybe? I would ask the town to refrain from posting employment opportunities that they are not offering. Save us to apply for jobs that really do exist. Barbra Laughton Barnstead

Just keep asking yourself: what does this mean for middle class? To the editor, George W. Bush tore the fabric of this country. I saw it happening during his presidency, but did not know what it would mean for our country. As time has passed, I believe the results have become more evident. The current angry and polarized views that have taken center stage in our government and in our nation are one result. This sense of absolute dissatisfaction among Americans has resulted in the rapid change of power...first to Obama and the Democrats in 2008; then, to the Conservative Republicans in 2010. An unrecognized result of the Bush presidency was and is the massive shift of power and wealth to the 1-percent of extremely wealthy Americans. Bush’s unfair tax cuts accelerated this trend. We are now seeing a cut in the middle class support programs with nearly all the savings going to the 1-percent. What is going to happen when nearly all the wealth and power are collected by the 1-percent? The answers are “scary and frightening”! The transfer of wealth and power is happening right now. Day by day, the scales are tipping. We must, as the other 99-percent of Americans, keep our eyes open and stop this fatal phenomenon before it is irreversible. ASK THE QUESTION on every bill, law, court decision, and government action : “What does this mean for the middle class?” “Is wealth and power being transferred?” Looking at the presidential race; Romney is proposing actions to speed up this shift of wealth and power to the 1-percent. Obama advocates transferring wealth back to the 99-percent, such as in his tax policy
and the Affordable Health Care Act, which is a major support program for the middle class. Looking at the Supreme Court, their Citizens United decision has already resulted in a shift of power away from the middle class, because of how it has enabled corporations to spend huge amounts of money (billions!) on proright wing political ads which mainstream citizens can never hope to match with individual contributions. Consider the Ryan Republican budget proposal, passed by the House: if signed, a massive amount of moneys would be transferred from the poor and middle classes to the very rich. This bill destroys the safety net for the 99-percent, including our current support programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. Plus, Ryan’s proposed a tax plan favors the very rich, thereby transferring even more wealth. Looking at Republican-controlled state governments, we see the passage of anti-health care for women and a change in the voting structure to favor the Republicans in several states, suppressing the votes of mostly Democrats. The result? A shift of power to the party of the rich, the GOP. In Wisconsin, there is a transfer of wealth from the middle class to big corporations at the expense of union workers. Breaking unions also shifts power to the 1-percent. KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN! You will see it; plain as day. ASK YOURSELF THE KEY QUESTION: What does this mean for the middle class, the 99-percent? ARE YOU SCARED YET? Dr. Thomas Dawson Laconia
Leigh & Sim are stepping up to make a difference in their home town To the editor, Fifteen years ago or so, while sitting at an I-LHS graduation ceremony, I listened as past school superintendent Gary Burton gave the commencement speech. He told the eager graduates to not be afraid to see the world — it’s an amazing place! However, he advised, when they get ready to settle down, there is no place better than home. He also challenged them go one step further and make a difference in their town, wherever they settle. Since that time, it has been fun for me to watch kids of family friends and students that I have known through many years of school volunteer activities, follow that exact advice. They have come home to raise families, start businesses, work locally, run for school board, volunteer in many areas, and to make a difference in our
community. In that spirit, I was happy to receive an invitation from Leigh (Ambrose) and Sim Willey to come to a breakfast reception that they are hosting for Ovide Lamontagne at Hart’s Turkey Farm on July 20 from 9:30-11 a.m. Ovide is running for Governor of New Hampshire and from what I’ve read, would be excellent, so I look forward to hearing him speak. As important as our political process is, which I thoroughly enjoy, it can’t happen without the candidates who give their time, money and energy to run, and young people like Leigh and Sim who are stepping up to make a difference!

Page 6 — THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Thursday, July 19, 2012
EVICTIONS from page one 4th N.H. Circuit Court, Laconia Division for their eviction hearing last month, Judge Jim Carroll agreed they should be evicted and issued a writ of possession to Davis. When the Belknap County Sheriff’s Department served the writ, the renters were gone and Davis’s realtor said the condo smelled a bit but was empty and largely undamaged. Davis is but one of hundreds of landlords in the Lakes Region and with the 2010 U.S. Census statistics showing that 43.6 percent of Laconia’s 6,838 housing units are occupied by tenants, renting is big business as well. And with the business of renting comes the business of evictions. “Evictions require a very detailed process,” said Belknap County Sheriff Craig Wiggin whose office is responsible for all process serving in the county — including writs of possession. “It costs money to evict somebody.” In 2011, Wiggin said his department served 767 landlord tenant notices, many of which require a second visit to make sure the tenant is gone. Much like in Davis’s case, Wiggin said people who are about to be evicted know it — they have been notified by certified mail by the court or the landlord — and there are very few occasions when a person is still there.” “It does happen from time to time but I can’t recall ever actually having to drag people out although we have had to occasionally standby by while they left, ” he said. Although why a person is evicted is not much of a concern to the sheriff’s department unless there is a possible criminal matter, he said he under-
stands from working with landlords that the vast majority — at least 80 to 90 percent — are tossed out for nonpayment of rent. For Priscilla Bean, managing rental property is the only business her and her husband Harry have ever really known. The couple bought their first duplex in 1973 and now own 75 rental properties in Laconia — about 25-percent of which are eligible for Section 8 or federal housing subsidies. She said about 50-percent of her tenants receive some kind of local, state or federal benefit. “Many of my tenants are maxed out. They just can’t pay any more,” she said, noting that as a business person, she is required to maintain her properties to standards defined by N.H. law, pay all of the property taxes and more recently, absorb the costs of a spike in what the city is charging multi-unit landlords for garbage disposal. “The city says go up on their rents. I can’t. These people don’t have any more money and neither do we for that matter,” she said. Bean says she hates to evict people. “My goal is to get paid,” she said. But when forced in to it, Bean says she rarely loses. She begins with a written demand for the rent. That gives the tenant eight days to pay up, make arrangements with her or get out. Most people know it takes longer than eight days, she said, so if she hasn’t had some kind of resolution, she heads to court. “I go to court, pay $101 and bring the piece of paper to the sheriff,” she said saying the paper says the same thing the first piece of paper said —

pay up or get out. The tenant has an additional eight days to request a hearing before a judge and, if one is requested, she said the court has 10 days to schedule it. At the hearing she said she sticks to the main issue — non-payment of rent. “I don’t say anything except I’m here for the rent,” she said, noting with a laugh that some lawyers who are not overly familiar with the eviction process try and talk too much about things other than rent and that gives the tenants an opportunity to talk about other things. “Then the judge feels sorry for them and takes it under consideration and the whole thing gets slowed down,” she said. “Four weeks is a good one and eight weeks is not,” she said, noting that she will be going without the rental income while the eviction is ongoing. “If I have to evict someone, I can guarantee I’ll go a month without getting paid.” Bean says she minimizes her exposure to non-payment by setting the rent day on the day the tenant gets paid. For example, if someone is paid twice a month, she gets her rent on the first and sixteenth day of the month. “That’s when people have the money. If I’m not going to get it, I know right away,” she said. While Bean does her own evictions, many landlords use attorneys. Unfortunately, said N.H. Legal Aid lawyer Elliott Berry, most of the people in Laconia being forcibly evicted don’t have lawyers. “It’s not that we’re wizards, it’s just that we’re able to get resolutions and agreements,” Berry said. Recent budget cuts forced Legal Aid to close two of its offices, including the one in Nashua, and Berry said they have never had an office in Laconia — although he sees a real need for one. He said he thinks fewer people would be forcible evicted if they were represented by lawyers because law-
yers are adept at “anticipating problems and creating documents that prevent them.” He said many landlord-tenant relationships are verbal and this is one of the reasons tenants often run into problems with landlords. Bean said she always uses written leases but, for her, some of the real costs of evictions are the human ones. “I used to cry and shake the night before I had to do one,” she said, especially if she knew the people were good people who had lost a job or had some other misfortune. She said she always tries to work with the tenants who are legitimately trying to work with her. “Sometimes I feel like a social worker,” she said, saying she carries with her all of the phone numbers for the various social service agencies in the state, the city and the county to help people get back on their feet and bring their rent current. “If a person is trying, then there’s really no reason why they can’t pay their rent.,” she said. For the county and the state, the costs are real. A substantial portion of Wiggins’ budget is spent on serving writs — even though the landlords have to reimburse his department $25 plus 55 cents a mile for travel. Because his department has to ensure the court order to vacate has been upheld, a deputy often has to return to the property. “It’s time consuming and expensive,” he said. Wiggin also said he has seen a spike in mortgage-related evictions in recent years but the majority of his eviction services involve landlords and tenants. “I also believe people have become gradually poorer over the past four years,” Wiggin said, blaming the prolonged recession and poor job market for decent paying jobs.

Pet of the Week If you like extraordinarily large dogs, and you are familiar with the Bull Mastiff breed, then waste not another second to visit New Hampshire Humane Society to meet HAMBONE! A word of caution – Hambone - so named due to his supreme interest in all things ham, is one of those “Ferraritype” canines. Not as in he likes to ride around in that fabulously styled Italian job, he probably wouldn’t fit anyway, but rather that to drive a Ferrari, you need superior driving skills. Ergo, to own Hambone, you truly must be a superior dog owner. He’s big, really big, we are training him NOT to jump up on folks –a 100lb dog is a force of nature. He’s puppy like in his play – but he is aware of his supersized body. He requires room, and exercise, but not the kind of running games that will find you pitched on your chin in the dirt! No cats please, and no young children. But, those that love the Mastiff breed, will instantly fall in love. Shelter is open Tuesday-Saturday call 603-524-3252 or check www.nhhumane.org
House fire surfaces hours after apparent lightning strike
BELMONT — Firefighters said an an early morning blaze in a home at 410 Darby Street was likely caused by an evening lightening strike and then smoldered for about 10 hours. Firefighters were called to the home at 5:29 a.m. by homeowner Donald Carlson who noticed the smoke at 5:25 a.m. Carlson woke his wife and the couple was able to safely leave the house with their two cats. In his written report to the media, Chief David Parenti said Laconia was first to arrive at the home located on the town line and its ranking officer called for a first alarm. Two engines from Belmont arrived within minutes and Lt. Fred Greene ordered an inside attack on the blaze but when it burned through the roof, he ordered the building evacuated. After firefighters knocked down the fire, they went
back inside and the fire was brought under control at 6:20 a.m. Parenti said the home was equipped with smoke detectors but because the fire was burning in the walls and attic, they never sounded. He said the house is uninhabitable at the movement and he estimated the damage to the building at $75,000 and the damage to the contents at $10,000. The family is staying with relatives. Belmont was assisted by firefighters and equipment from Laconia, Gilford and Tilton-Northfield while Gilmanton covered the Belmont station. He said Gilmanton firefighters responded to one alarm call during their coverage. — Gail Ober
LICENSE from page one The former Mardi Gras North Cabaret, the company to which Drew sublet his business location, was targeted by the N.H. Drug Task Force in a sting operation that ran from June of 2011 until October 18, 2011 when two SWAT Teams, the Gilford Police Department, and agents from the task force raided the place on a Tuesday night. All three selectmen, the code enforcement officer and the town administrator accompanied the police. Three dancers were arrested during the raid and two dancers and two patrons were arrested in their homes by cooperating police departments. The liquor violation stemmed from activities witnessed by members of the DTF. After a three-day hearing before the Liquor Commission last month, Drew — who is the holder of the liquor license Mardi Gras North was operating under — was exonerated of the most serious charge of allowing his business to be used for unlawful activities.
The commissioners found him responsible for over-serving a patron — for which he received the three-day suspension and a $150 fine; for having an employee consume alcohol while working — for which he was fined $100; and for giving away a free drink — for which he was fined $100. Chief Liquor Enforcement Officer Eddie Edwards had recommended the three-day suspension and a total of $1,000 in fines however commissioners felt the financial recommendations were too steep. “I don’t think he should be penalized for filing an appeal,” said Commissioner Michael Milligan, explaining the law allows for the fines they imposed. “ I think the three days (suspension) sends the message.” Milligan also noted that the Commission wasn’t pleased when it learned Drew has sublet the operation of his business without informing them. Kelsey’s at the Grant has been operating since May under a conditional beer and wine liquor license see next page

from preceding page time, his statistics show landlord-tenant evictions are on the rise, at least in Belknap County. There is also a cost for the court system — funded by the state judiciary. N.H. 4th Circuit Court, Laconia Division Clerk Michelle Brown said each eviction — 464 of them in 2011— were processed by court clerks. While many of them were resolved before the actual hearing, she said the paperwork for all of them must still be processed. “A resolution saves the judge’s time, but we still have to complete all of the paperwork,” she said,
adding evictions are but one of the civil, family, and criminal matters the court handles. She said the court typically sets aside two mornings a week for landlord tenant disputes — sometimes more. As for Davis, her eviction cost her three trips to Laconia — one because of a paperwork mistake — five months rent and some tense moments over what she feared she might find when she finally got access to her condo. When asked if she’d rent it again, she said she would but would prefer to sell it at a good price instead.

from preceding page provided he has no exotic dancing. The agreement was reached between the town of Gilford, the Liquor Enforcement Bureau and Drew and the Commissioners agreed to it until the final resolution yesterday. With his license fully restored, Drew’s next step is getting his exotic dancing license from the town’s Selectboard. He filed and paid for an application last week but at their last meeting, selectmen voted to table the issue until the Liquor Commission issued it’s final order. Drew has the recommendations of Gilford’s police chief, fire chief, and code enforcement officer to resume exotic dancing. In a statement last week, Town Administrator Scott Dunn read a prepared statement saying that in his opinion Drew should not get his exotic dancing license because of what he heard during the three days of the Liquor Commissioner’s hearing. He said he “learned first-hand about the activities of the performers, which included the sales of illegal drugs to undercover police officers and consumption of alcoholic beverages while working.” Drew’s lawyer, atty. David Bownes, quickly noted that the Liquor Commission determined Drew was not found responsible for allowing his building to be used for illegal purposes and said that Dunn’s statement was “not true.” Drew said yesterday that he thought Dunn’s statements at last week’s selectmen’s meeting were “out of order and wrong.” “I’m tired of being pushed around for no reason,” he said. Selectmen could revisit the matter at their next meeting on July 25.
In the ensuing nine months, three of the dancers have gone to trial. Kyme Locke, 38, was found guilty of four separate counts of sales of cocaine and one count of possession of cocaine. She was sentenced last week by Judge Kenneth McHugh to serve three 3 1/2-to-7 years in N.H. State Prison, all suspended, for three of those counts and 1 1/2-to-5 years for a fourth sales charge. All but six months of that sentence is suspended. She was sentenced to 2-to4 years for the possession charge, all suspended, and given four days credit for time served. The final charge was not prosecuted. Dana Zizzo, 23, was found guilty of three counts of marijuana sales and sentenced to 12 months in the Belknap County Jail by Judge James O’Neill for one of them. She was given two suspended sentences of 1 1/2to-3 years for the other two counts. A charge of marijuana possession was not prosecuted. Sherry Barnhardt, 23, was found guilty of four counts of sales of oxycodone and was sentenced by Judge James Barry to serve 1 1/2-to-5 years in N.H. State Prison for one count with six months suspended; 3 1/2 to 7 years — all suspended — for a second count; 3 1/2-to-7 years for a third count to be served at the same time as the first sentence; and 1 1/2-to-3 years for a fourth count to be served at the same time as the others. One count of oxycodone sales was not prosecuted and she was sentenced to serve 1 1/2 to 5 years to be served at the same time for a fifth count for possession of oxycodone. She was credited with 148 days served. Judge O’Neill rejected a plea bargain deal proffered by the county attorney for fourth dancer, Jessica Sargent. She is scheduled for trial this fall.
TEACHERS from page one voters at March’s Annual School District Meeting and called for $37,006 in salary increases in 2012-2013 and another $30,455 in 2013-2014. Voters will be asked to fund the contract on September 11. Key to new contract is the method by which the increases were determined, said School Board member Michael Hatch, who presented it to the Budget Committee. He said that, in accordance with the
wishes of those at the District Meeting, there are no increases in salaries for teachers this year. Year two provides an average increase of 2.08-percent in salary hikes but awards them only for longevity and professional experience. The new contract bases salaries on the same existing base pay scale rather than adjusting the scale upwards as was done in the contract that failed. see next page

Number of regional housing permits finally leveled off in ‘10
MEREDITH — The Lakes Region Planning Commission (LRPC) recently completed its 14th annual update of Development Activity in the Lakes Region. This report is a compilation of commercial, industrial, and residential permitting activity and residential subdivision activity for the Lakes Region, based on 2010 data. The NH Office of Energy and Planning (NH OEP) and the LRPC conduct complementary annual surveys, the results of which provide the data for this report. The Development Activity in the Lakes Region 2012 Annual Report shows that the number of residential permits issued in New Hampshire increased from 2,160 in 2009 to 2,350 in 2010; an increase of 8.8-percent. Residential permitting in New Hampshire peaked in 2003, when 9,263 permits were issued. Since then, the number of permits granted declined to its lowest point in 2009. The survey data show that year 2010 represents the first statewide increase in the number of residential permits issued since 2003, and the first regional increase since 2004. In the Lakes Region overall, there were nine more
housing permits issued in 2010 than 2009; however slight, that number does reverse the steep downward trend that began in 2005. Of the 30 Lakes Region communities, Laconia (50), Moultonborough (21), Meredith (17), Gilford (17), and Freedom (14) represented the top five in the number of residential permits allowed in 2010. Relative to subdivision activity, the survey showed that about 2,400 acres were subdivided in 2010, with Sandwich (514 ac.), Center Harbor (300 ac.), Gilford (264 ac.), and Northfield (203 ac.) experiencing the most activity. The number of subdivided acres in 2010 is still below the 10-year historic average of approximately 3,400 acres. In addition, 75 new commercial buildings were permitted in the region in 2010, totaling more than 105,577 square feet. Moultonborough issued the greatest number with 21 approvals; Wolfeboro issued the second most with 11, yet that town experienced a net loss of nine commercial buildings due to the demolition of 20 units. Gilford had half of the region’s six indussee next page
from preceding page “We have a frozen salary schedule plus no steps,” Hatch said, meaning teachers are forgoing one year of longevity pay. Last night’s presentation was a prelude to a Budget Committee public hearing scheduled for 7 p.m. on Friday night in the Gilmanton Academy Building auditorium on the second floor. Budget Committee member Richard Bakos said he was not happy because the new contract did not address the percentage of contributions teachers will pay for their health insurance. He also wanted the School District administrators to provide the committee and the public a break down of what they consider “benefits” in the proposed second year increase. School District Administrator Donna Clairmont said she would but told the committee that for the purposes of this contract, benefits were defined as FICA (Social Security and Medicare), workman’s compensation, state retirement and unemployment insurance. For the purposes of this contract, health insurance is not considered a “benefit” and is in a separate line
in the School District budget. This will also be the first time the School District will vote using the so-called official ballot (SB-2) system. After the public hearing Friday night, the Budget Committee will either recommend or not recommend the proposed contract. Their recommendation will appear on the warrant article as will the School Board’s whose members voted four in favor and one abstention. On August 14 there will be a deliberative session. In this case, the deliberative session will be only a discussion or “formality” because under state law the cost items of a negotiated contract can not be changed by the deliberative body. Voters will go to the polls on September 11 and vote by secret ballot. This year the special election will coincide with the N.H. State Primary, however voters will be given a separate ballot for the school district vote. Voting will be at the Gilmanton School and polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. — Gail Ober

M’borough officials alarmed that medical ‘sharps’ showing up in town recycling bins MOULTONBOROUGH — Medical sharps have recently surfaced in the waste stream at the town’s Transfer Station, causing a hazard to users and workers. Over the past three weeks, nearly a dozen syringes were found in the plastic and can recycling bins at the facility. Road Agent/Public Works Director Scott Kinmond said, “This is most unfortunate as the facility does accept these items for disposal when properly packaged.” Transfer Station Supervisor Scott Greenwood added, “For the safety of all we simply ask facility users to please use the proper practices for the disposal of medical sharps.” That method is to place the sharps in a good condition plastic container
(laundry detergent preferred), tape the top shut and mark the container “Do not Recycle - Household Sharps.” These containers should then be given to an attendant at the facility. The Town of Moultonborough contracts with a vendor who disposes of the sharps separately from other wastes in accordance with industry best practices to ensure personal safety and avoid potential landfill, soil and groundwater contaminations. Both Kinmond and Greenwood asked all facility users to please follow the prescribed disposal guidelines above or refer to the town website at www.moultonboroughnh.gov (Click on Departments, then Public Works and then the Sharps Disposal link) for additional information.
Sobriety checkpoint due in Tilton before end of the month TILTON — The Police Department here, in cooperation with departments in Northfield and Belmont, will conduct a sobriety checkpoint in the Tilton area at some point during between July 20 and July 29. All vehicles will be pulled over during the checkpoint operation,
whose purpose is to detect and apprehend impaired drivers. The three departmetns have established a Regional DWI task force and they applied for, and were granted, permission to conduct the checkpoint operation by a Superior Court justice.

What Would You Do If You Were Pain Free?
STATE SCHOOL from page one the city 218 acres it is offering the county 228 acres. How the state got itself in this awkward position provides an example of what can come of the Legislature posing as a real estate agency. In June, 2011 the Legislature directed the Department of Administrative Services to offer the property to the city for “not less than $10-million,” and, if by June 30, 2012 the city failed to accept the offer, to offer it to Belknap County “at fair market value” with a deadline of August 15, 2012. If neither the city nor the county purchased the property, it would be placed on the open market at no less than its fair market value to be sold by May 1, 2013. In September 2011, the state appraised the property for $2,160,000. The appraisal included three tax parcels. The largest, some 200-acres, is bounded by North Main Street to the east, Meredith Center Road and Eastman Road to the north and Ahern State Park to the west and south and divided roughly in half by Right Way Path. The two smaller parcels consist of an undeveloped 10.4-acre lot at the junction of Old North Main Street and North Main Street that houses a state-owned sewer pump station and an unimproved wooded lot of 7.5-acres at the corner of Lane Road and Meredith Center Road. Both parcels are encumbered by 99-year leases at $1 per year to the city of Laconia that expire in 2099. The 200acre lot appraised at $1,760,000, the 10.4-acre lot at $300,000 and the 7.5acre lot at $100,000. In light of the appraisal, the Legislature sought to amend the law to accommodate the market value of the property, but the legislation failed, leaving the Department of Administrative
Services compelled to offer the property to the city for $10-million. In April, when the City Council received the offer, it made a counter-offer. The city agreed to purchase the three parcels, along with the 10.2 acres housing the Robbie Mills Sports Complex, which the state also leases to the city for 99 years at $1 a year, for $2.16-million. Bound by the original legislation, the state shelved the city’s counteroffer and proceeded with its offer to the county. But, this time the state included the Robbie Mills Sports Complex among the parcels for sale. Presenting the offer to the County Commission, Linda Hodgdon, Commissioner of Administrative Services, stated that the three parcels leased to the city bear “an aggregate estimated unencumbered value” of $535,000, but explained that the offering price to the county of $1,760,000 assumes their market value is negligible “to any party other than the City of Laconia.” Although the offer may appear a bargain, the County Commission could not accept unless the Belknap County Convention authorized an appropriation. Earlier this week, after two tumultuous meetings, the delegation approved the commission’s request for a supplemental appropriation of $160,000 to hire a consultant to assist with planning new jail by a single vote, and then only because one member was absent. Lahey believes that if the county declines the state’s offer and the property is put on the open market, the city can make another bid for it. According to the law, the property must be offered at its fair market value. The offer to the county suggests that the state pegs the fair market higher to the city than to other prospective buyers.
BRAS from page one on them last year but the information stayed within academic circles until a recent article in the BBC History Magazine. “We didn’t believe it ourselves,” she said in a telephone call from the Tyrolean city of Innsbruck. “From what we knew, there was no such thing as bralike garments in the 15th century.” The university said the four bras were among more than 2,700 textile
fragments — some linen, others linen combined with cotton — that were found intermixed with dirt, wood, straw and pieces of leather. “Four linen textiles resemble modern-time bras” with distinct cups and one in particular looks like today’s version, it said, with “two broad shoulder straps and a possible back strap, not preserved but indicated by partially torn edges of the cups onto which it was attached.”

Big Papi on DL but Red Sox roll over Chicago, 10-1 BOSTON (AP) — Cody Ross looked pretty comfortable and very productive hitting in David Ortiz’s usual spot in the lineup. Ross hit three-run homers in consecutive innings and Felix Doubront pitched six solid innings, carrying the Boston Red Sox to a 10-1 victory over the Chicago White Sox on Wednesday night. “When you have the guys on base and you have the heart of the order coming up, that puts a lot of pressure on the pitcher,” Ross said. “Any time you lose a David Ortiz it’s tough to make up for. No one can replace David Ortiz, he’s one of the best hitters in the game.” On the day Boston put Ortiz on the 15-day disabled list with a strained right Achilles, the first four batters in the order were a combined 10-for-15 with nine runs and 10 RBIs through six innings. Ross did his damage in Ortiz’s customary No. 3 place in the order. “We’ve been scoring runs with guys on the disabled list and different lineups,” Boston manager Bobby Valentine said. The Red Sox moved past Texas with the high-scoring night and lead the majors in runs scored. Doubront has benefited from Boston’s offensive
outbursts this season. The Red Sox have averaged 8.38 runs per nine innings in his starts. Adrian Gonzalez added a solo homer and drove in four runs, and Jacoby Ellsbury had three hits for Boston. The Red Sox have won two of three in the fourgame series, which concludes Thursday night. Chicago’s Kevin Youkilis went 1-for-4 in his third game against his former team of 7 1-2 seasons. He was traded to the White Sox on June 24. The 24-year old Doubront (10-4) joined Jon Lester as the only Red Sox to have double-digits wins in a season at 24 or younger since Roger Clemens in 1987. Clemens was 20-9 at 24 and Lester was 24 when he won 16 in 2008. Ross broke a 1-all tie with his homer in the third. Ellsbury and Carl Crawford opened the inning with singles before Ross hit a drive into the seats above the Green Monster. With Boston leading 4-1 in the fourth, Ross hit another shot into the Monster seats after Pedro Ciriaco and Ellsbury singled. One pitch later, Gonzalez lofted a drive into the first row of seats in left, making it 8-1.
SOLDIERS from page 2 and supervisors were implicated in the Colombia scandal. Eight have been forced out of the agency, three were cleared of serious misconduct and at least two employees are fighting to get their jobs back. The misconduct became public after a dispute over payment between a Secret Service agent and a prostitute at a Cartagena hotel on April 12. The Secret Service was in Cartagena for a Latin American summit before Obama’s arrival.
All the alleged activities took place before Obama arrived in Cartagena for meetings with 33 other regional leaders, but the scandal overshadowed his visit. In the military, nonjudicial or administrative punishments can take a wide variety of forms, from docking service members’ pay or confining them to quarters to assigning them additional duties for a certain length of time. In some cases, administrative punishments can be career-ending, or delay or prevent promotions.
BOMBING from page 2 said Gal Malka, an Israeli teenager who was slightly wounded. The resort town has become a popular travel destination in recent years for Israelis, particularly for recent high school graduates before they are drafted for mandatory military service. No group immediately claimed responsibility for the attack, which wounded 30 others. But suspicion immediately fell upon Iran and its Lebanese proxy, the Hezbollah guerrilla group. “All signs point to Iran,” Netanyahu said. “Just in
the past few months, we have seen attempts by Iran to harm Israelis in Thailand, India, Georgia, Kenya, Cyprus and more. This is an Iranian terror attack that is spreading across the world. Israel will react forcefully to Iran’s terror.” The Israeli leader gave no evidence to back his charges. Top Israeli security officials were holding consultations late Wednesday. The Israelis said they were still weighing their options on how to respond, and there were no preparations under way for an immediate reaction.
PILOT from page one St. George police Capt. James Van Fleet said investigators were still awaiting toxicology reports to determine whether drugs or alcohol were a factor. He said they were also awaiting data from the cockpit recorder. “Right now, we just don’t know when he was shot,” Van Fleet said. “Did he shoot himself at the beginning and the plane went on a ride on its own? We don’t know.” The short ride was jarring enough to collapse the plane’s front landing gear as it careened over landscaping, crossed a road and hit a curb before crashing into cars in the parking lot, he said. “He might have been standing in the cockpit and was thrown back,” Van Fleet said. Meanwhile, SkyWest officials said the company deactivated Hedglin’s access cards and put him on administrative leave after Colorado authorities named him a murder suspect, but declined to explain how he was able to steal one of their planes.
Van Fleet said he didn’t know if the plane was locked, and SkyWest declined to discuss it. Van Fleet also said that once his officers had finished processing evidence on the plane, it was released to SkyWest, which painted over its logo and moved the aircraft back onto secure airport property.

Laconia Emblem Club Check pool filters for the Asian longhorned beetle awards scholarship to Rebecca Pawlowski DURHAM — Kyle Lombard, entomologist with the Forest Health office at UNH Cooperative Extension says the Asian longhorned beetle (ALB) is a serious threat to New Hampshire’s forests and trees. He says that while it hasn’t been found in New Hampshire yet, the more people look for it, the better the chance to limit its spread, if it arrives here. The beetles are easiest to see when they are most active in late July through late August says Lombard. “We are reminding New Hampshire residents to look for them in their trees and even in their swimming pools this July and August. We need as many people as possible looking for the beetle.” Why pools as collection sites? Days after the discovery of ALB in Worcester, MA, experts were canvassing neighborhoods investigating the extent of the outbreak when they stumbled across a public pool attendant who said he was collecting these bee-
tles for years in his pool filters. UNH Cooperative Extension and the N.H. Division of Forests and Lands invites pool owners to check their filters and skimmers weekly between July 13 and August 26. Pictures of any suspicious beetles should be uploaded to www.albnh.org. Photos will be reviewed by the Forest Health specialists and posted in a photo gallery. Those who submit a photo will receive an email from an entomologist identifying the insect. “This is a simple but effective way to monitor for ALB,” says Karen Bennett, UNH Cooperative Extension’s Forest Resource specialist. “It can even be fun for families to send in their pictures and see them posted online. But this simple task is critical to protect the forests that we all love here in New Hampshire.” For more information, contact Karen Bennett at Karen.bennett@unh.edu or (603) 862-4861.
PLYMOUTH — The Greater Plymouth Public Health Network, on behalf of the Central New Hampshire Health Partnership, will sponsor a CERT (Community Emergency Response Team) class on July 28 and 29 at the Ashland Fire Station. The two day course, 8 a.m. – 4 p.m. each day, is provided through the NH Fire Academy and is free of charge, but preregistration is required. CERT Teams are community-based, and function as a way to locally organize and utilize volunteers’ time and expertise to prepare for, and respond to, emergencies, as well as support public safety officials. This class offers community members training in a variety of topics including fire safety, disaster preparedness, and light search and rescue. The CERT program centers around readiness, people assisting people, rescuer safety, and providing support to communities at their request. In addition to the CERT program the Greater
Plymouth Public Health Network also coordinates the Medical Reserve program. Both programs are open to all and all training is provided free of charge. For registration information, contact Donna Quinn at 536-4000 X 1390 or register online at www.nhoodle.nh.gov.

Meredith Village Savings Bank Fund gives grant to The Village Players of Wolfeboro
MEREDITH — The Meredith Village Savings Bank Fund (MVSB Fund) has announced a $5,000 grant to the non-profit amateur community theater, The Village Players. This grant will be used to help insulate their 19th century building in Wolfeboro and keep the 200-seat theater on Glendon Street open during the winter months. “We are so thankful for this award from the MVSB Fund,” said Diane Mork, president of the board for The Village Players. “These grant funds will go a long way in helping us continue to allow other patrons of cultural arts to use our facility. We were beginning to worry that if fuel costs continued to rise, we might have to close the theater during the winter season. This grant from the MVSB Fund is helping us address the source of the problem; our building will now be better insulated, and Hilde Talbot (far left), bank services representative at MVSB’s we can continue to enjoy the theater through Wolfeboro Office, presents a $5,000 grant check to members of these cold, New England winters.” The Village Players in front of their historic 19th-century theater The Village Players presents three to five in Wolfeboro.

Get Fuzzy
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’ll be trimming certain areas of your life in the weeks to come -- for instance, slimming down or shaving your lifestyle to match your income. Right now you’ll research to decide how you want to do it. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). This day will be good. The circumstances support innovation, inviting you to be fully present in the moment and to engage all of your senses in the process. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your opinion of yourself will be the most important factor in a relationship, affecting all major and minor decisions and interactions. Hint: Feeling good about yourself is a decision that doesn’t cost a thing. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). On the one hand, it’s nice if you can be sincere in your dealings and honest with yourself -- unless you’re telling a good story or making people laugh. There’s such a thing as poetic license. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). There’s something irresistible about your wholehearted approach to life, especially when you’re in an environment where people are trying hard to be appropriate or, worse, “cool.” TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 19). You are good at many things and great at something that is rare. Use your exceptional gift often this year. Instead of spending time doing things you don’t enjoy and aren’t good at, rely on your talents. Love multiplies through August, and the social vibes keep rolling all year. November brings happy news for your family. Virgo and Gemini people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 8, 4, 30, 33 and 18.

HOROSCOPE
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your attitudes about ambition and how to achieve success are very different from those of other signs, and that difference will be highlighted. You’ll like trying to understand where another person is coming from. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Each job you take on cultivates certain personality traits in you. So what emerges as you work is partly the job and partly what’s already inside of you. It’s too soon to decide whether or not you like the results. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). There’s no time to waste in censoring your actions. Whatever version of you shows up for the occasion is the right one. Trust that you have your reasons, and go forward. CANCER (June 22-July 22). The problem you face is rather boring. Didn’t you deal with this yesterday? Think of yourself as a creative person, and suddenly your imagination will be ablaze with ideas about how to solve this one. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’re due for a breakthrough in a special relationship. You’ll reach the part of the journey where you look at each other and aren’t quite sure how to react. It’s a sign that the bond is new again. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). An air sign friend of yours (Aquarius, Libra or Gemini) will help you glimpse your potential. Place the image of it alongside a snapshot of your current status, and keep moving forward. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Feeling out of control is silly. All you have to do is change your mind, and you’ll sense that you’re indeed very influential in this moment. In fact, it just may be that all the power that ever was is inside of

––––––– ALMANAC –––––––
THURSDAY PRIME TIME
Today is Thursday, July 19, the 201st day of 2012. There are 165 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On July 19, 1812, during the War of 1812, the First Battle of Sackets Harbor in Lake Ontario resulted in an American victory as U.S. naval forces repelled a British attack. On this date: In 1553, King Henry VIII’s daughter Mary was proclaimed Queen of England after pretender Lady Jane Grey was deposed. In 1848, a pioneer women’s rights convention convened in Seneca Falls, N.Y. In 1870, the Franco-Prussian war began. In 1943, allied air forces raided Rome during World War II. In 1952, the Summer Olympics opened in Helsinki, Finland. In 1961, TWA became the first airline to begin showing regularly scheduled in-flight movies as it presented “By Love Possessed” to first-class passengers. In 1969, Apollo 11 and its astronauts, Neil Armstrong, Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin and Michael Collins, went into orbit around the moon. In 1979, the Nicaraguan capital of Managua fell to Sandinista guerrillas, two days after President Anastasio Somoza fled the country. In 1980, the Moscow Summer Olympics began, minus dozens of nations that were boycotting the games because of the Soviet military intervention in Afghanistan. In 1989, 111 people were killed when a United Air Lines DC-10 crashed while making an emergency landing at Sioux City, Iowa; 185 other people survived. In 1990, President George H.W. Bush joined former presidents Ronald Reagan, Gerald R. Ford and Richard M. Nixon at ceremonies dedicating the Nixon Library and Birthplace (since redesignated the Richard Nixon Presidential Library and Museum) in Yorba Linda, Calif. In 1992, anti-Mafia prosecutor Paolo Borsellino was killed along with five members of his security escort in a car bombing in Palermo, Sicily. One year ago: Summoned by British lawmakers to answer for a phone hacking and bribery scandal at one of his tabloids, media mogul Rupert Murdoch said he was humbled and ashamed, but accepted no responsibility for wrongdoing. Today’s Birthdays: Former Sen. George McGovern, D-S.D., is 90. Actress Helen Gallagher is 86. Country singer Sue Thompson is 86. Country singer George Hamilton IV is 75. Singer Vikki Carr is 72. Country singer-musician Commander Cody is 68. Actor George Dzundza is 67. Rock singer-musician Alan Gorrie is 66. Rock musician Brian May is 65. Rock musician Bernie Leadon is 65. Actress Beverly Archer is 64. Movie director Abel Ferrara is 61. Actor Peter Barton is 56. Rock musician Kevin Haskins is 52. Movie director Atom Egoyan is 52. Actor Campbell Scott is 51. Actor Anthony Edwards is 50. Country singer Kelly Shiver is 49. Actress Clea Lewis is 47. Country musician Jeremy Patterson is 42. Classical singer Urs Buhler (Il Divo) is 41. Actor Andrew Kavovit is 41. Alt-country singer Elizabeth Cook is 40. Rock musician Jason McGerr (Death Cab for Cutie) is 38. Actor Benedict Cumberbatch is 36. Actor Jared Padalecki is 30.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Annie: My college-age daughter is very hard on herself. “Sharyn” is a beautiful, intelligent and wonderful person at heart, but she cannot see it, even though everyone else does. For 12 years, Sharyn has been in some form of therapy. She has damaged herself, starved herself and even run away. As a child, she was “different,” and so she was badly bullied and had unreliable friends who briefly entered her life and left suddenly. After years of rejection and failure to achieve her goals, she began to isolate herself and give up. Much of her time was spent alone and lonely. It was unbearably painful to stand by and watch my child undeservingly suffer like this. Sharyn seemed to make progress once she started college. She’s maintained a 3.5 GPA, developed incredible artistic and writing abilities, found a summer job and will be living with her friends this coming year. However, she still believes no one really likes her. She says, “Everyone wants me gone,” and “Everyone thinks I’m stupid, lazy, weird and mean.” She has many great things going for her now, but she still allows her negativity to control her life. She has even said to me, “You hate me,” and “I’m a bad daughter.” I have overheard her yelling both hurtful and hateful comments to herself while she looks in the mirror. I tell Sharyn repeatedly that I love her and am proud of her, but she accuses me of lying. I’m frustrated and heartbroken that she believes these things when she has come so far. What else can I possibly do to help my daughter understand that she is a wonderful person who deserves happiness? -- Peace Bound Parent Dear Parent: You are doing the best you can with your bedrock reassurances. Sharyn’s conception of herself is so distorted and negative that she assumes your opinion is too biased to count. Her accusations are a way to test your commitment.
These issues are best addressed in therapy. Since she seems to be making progress, albeit slowly, please continue to provide calm, loving support. You also can get some therapy on your own and develop some coping strategies. Dear Annie: I’ve been dating “Don” for eight months. When I met him, I didn’t realize he had been seeing a woman for two years. Apparently, they had an understanding that if someone else came along, it would be OK to break up because they live three hours apart. They still communicate on Facebook. This girlfriend’s family owns some property that is pretty much in Don’s backyard. She stays at a cabin on the property a few times a year. It makes me really uncomfortable. But when I talk to Don about her, he says, “You have nothing to worry about.” But there have been a few nights when he’s called her name in his sleep. He also once told me that if he wanted her back, all he had to do was call her. Don wants me to move in with him, but I can’t. His relationship with the other woman eats at me all the time. What do I do? -- On the Rebound Dear Rebound: You don’t completely trust Don, partly because he has given you the impression that this woman is always available to him. Trust is the bedrock of any relationship. If it doesn’t exist with Don, there won’t be a happy future for the two of you, and you should move on. Dear Annie: A reader asked why there wasn’t a Viagratype pill for women, and your response implied that Viagra restores desire. This simply is not the case. Viagra and other medications like it allow the body to carry through on the desires of the heart and mind. In the absence of desire, these medications do nothing except possibly give a confidence boost. -- My Two Cents
