Circus in town for first time in 50 years By RogeR Amsden FOR THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — A large crowd turned out at Memorial Field Friday morning to greet the Kelly-Miller Circus and watch Lisa the elephant raise the big top for the first circus to visit the city in a half century.

FALL RIVER, Mass. (AP) — A preliminary investigation shows “murky and cloudy” water in a public swimming pool helped conceal the body of a drowned woman for two days while people swam there, authorities said Friday. The Bristol County district attorney’s office said the body of Marie Joseph was submerged at the bottom of the 12-foot-deep end of the pool from Sunday afternoon until Tuesday evening. Joseph, 36, was a hotel housekeeper in Newport, R.I. She was from Haiti and had five children. Her body was discovered after it floated to the surface shortly before some youngsters sneaked into the pool for a clandestine swim Tuesday night. The medical examiner’s office has determined the manner of her death to be accidensee BODY page 12
NEW YORK (AP) — Smiling faintly as he walked out of court, former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn was released from house arrest Friday after prosecutors acknowledged serious questions about the credibility of the hotel maid who accused him of sexual assault. The charges against him stand — for now, at least. But weeks after saying it had a strong case that was only getting stronger, the district attorney’s office was on the defensive. So was the housekeeper’s lawyer, who continued to insist that Strauss-Kahn had violently abused the woman. An attorney for Strauss-Kahn, meanwhile, called the turn of events “a great relief.” The case underscores “how easy it is for people to be charged with serious crimes and for there to be a rush to judgment,” William W. Taylor said. Strauss-Kahn, 62, had been confined for
weeks to a luxury New York City townhouse on $6 million bail after his arrest on attempted rape charges that forced his resignation as head of the International Monetary Fund and appeared to destroy any hope he had of running for president of France next year. But then, on Friday, defense lawyers went into court to ask that his bail conditions be eased, with prosecutors’ assent. “The strength of the case has been affected by the substantial credibility issues regarding” the accuser, Assistant District Attorney Joan Illuzzi-Orbon told the judge, who then canceled Strauss-Kahn’s bail and most of the other restrictions. According to prosecutors, the woman admitted she lied to a grand jury about what she did immediately after the alleged attack. She actually went on cleaning rooms instead of reporting the episode right away, prosecu-
tors told the defense in a letter. She also told prosecutors a tearful, vivid but untrue story of having been gangraped in her native Guinea, later admitting it was among various false accounts of oppression that she had been told to memorize to enhance her 2004 application for political asylum, prosecutors said. And she claimed someone else’s child as her own dependent and lied about her income on tax forms, they said. District Attorney Cyrus R. Vance Jr. portrayed the turnabout as a case of prosecutors doing the right thing. “Our commitment to the truth and the facts will govern how we proceed” in the Strauss-Kahn case, he told reporters. Neither he nor Strauss-Kahn’s lawyers took questions. Authorities have not said specifically see MAID page 8
CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — President Hugo Chavez’s revelation that he is battling cancer raises questions about the future of his drive to bring socialism to Venezuela and create a Latin America free of Washington’s influence. The biggest question, though, is just how sick is he? Suddenly, the issue isn’t so much about how long Chavez should govern after 12 often tumultuous years in power, but how long he can. In a surprise announcement Thursday night, Chavez disclosed that he had a can-
cerous tumor removed while on a trip to Cuba last month, though he didn’t give details about what kind of cancer or say how soon he might return home. During his tenure, Chavez has become a maverick leftist voice and an oil-rich benefactor for governments from Cuba to Nicaragua to Bolivia. His campaign to counter U.S. influence in Latin America has led him to build alliances with foes of Washington across the globe, from Iran to Libya’s Moammar Ghadafi. Now the uncertainty over his health has raised questions about how long that will
continue and whether a successor would maintain Chavez’s policy of “checkbook diplomacy” to prop up the region’s left. Chavez aides insisted Friday that the president was still fully in charge and working from Cuba while recovering, though it was unclear how long his recuperation might take. In the streets, hundreds of the ailing leader’s supporters poured into a downtown plaza, shouting “Onward, commander!” “With the grace of God, he’s going to get through all of this, and we’re going to wait see CHAVEZ page 14

Laconia fishermen have close call when Avery Dam gate opens up without warning

LACONIA — Two local fishermen narrowly escaped being swept down river when an operator at the Avery Dam on the Winnipesaukee River allegedly opened one of the sluice gates while the two were fishing just below. The dam is located adjacent to the historic Belknap and Busiel Mills. Raul Narizmendi said he and his uncle, Marcus Hall, were fishing from the rocks on the Union Avenue side of the river when his uncle and another man, Juston Thurber, went down on to the ledge near what both men thought was a closed gate. Narizmendi said he saw the dam operator open the gate and said he ran down the rocks to warn his uncle and Thurber the water was coming but the two got temporarily trapped on the ledge. Hall said he saw the water coming from the gate and called his wife to tell her to come get him and to make sure someone had called for help. He also said he called his boss to tell him he’d probably be a little late for work. His wife, who arrived after he was safely on shore, said she doesn’t know what exactly her husband had expected her to do but said she was happy to hear he wouldn’t allow the two teens who generally fish with him to go any where near the river. They were fishing from the foot-bridge that spans the river. City police and fire officials responded but Hall and Thurber were able to grab their gear and scramble up the rocks to safety without any assistance. Both men were in the water about up to their knees and Hall actually had some green algae stuck to his sneakers. Hall said Thurber barely made it out. For his part, Thurber, who continued fishing from the bridge, said things were a little scary for a while but wished the police had been a little more sympathetic to his plight. “They checked my license and ran me for outstanding warrants, but never asked me if I was okay,” he said.

Both men said they fish near near the foot-bridge and, because it’s not posted, didn’t think they were doing anything wrong when they went on to the ledge. “I’m going to keep fishing,” said Hall. “But I’ll be doing it from the bridge.” Hall also said he had a pretty good sized fish on the line when the water came up. “I’ll probably never get that one back,” he said.

Europe’s venerable social democracies are dead How many nails does it require to forever whack down the coffin lid on European social democracy? It’s a political tradition once animated by socialist principles, though in practice social democratic parties have invariably taken the side of capital when the chips were ever seriously down. In 1914, Lenin was outraged at the sight of social democratic parties across Europe tossing aside the noble principles of international working-class solidarity. These parties rallied behind their national flags, voting war credits to unleash the horrors of the World War I, which doomed millions of workingclass conscripts drafted into their national armies. Lenin would have been caustically unsurprised just over a century later at the current spectacle in Athens. Here, the supposed leftist Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou is ramming through a program of national economic suicide, so German and French banks won’t be inconvenienced by bad loans to Greece. The Greek people are scheduled to pay a fearful price. Ramming through an austerity package, amounting to over 78-billion euro extorted by the bankers, all but one of the 155 deputies of the ruling social democratic PASOK party voted for the government; all but one of the 143 MPs from all other parties voted against it. The confidence vote took place against the furious protests and resistance of the Greek people. Around 28-billion euro of the total is to be raised through spending cuts and increased revenue, while 50-billion euro will be raised through the privatization of state enterprises, including ports, telecommunications concerns, real estate and stakes in the public power corporation. Across the next five years, more than two billion euros, or $2.9-billion, are scheduled in cuts to the health sector through 2015 by reducing regulated prices for drugs and increasing taxes on heating oil and the self-employed. Public employment will be slashed. Greece has already cut the wages of its 800,000 public workers — a quarter of the work force — by more than 10-percent. Papandreou had other options: Simply to refuse to blink in the face of blackmail from Euro-bankers and be prepared to return to its own national currency and restore a measure of sovereignty in the conduct of its economic affairs. In Britain, Labour leader Edward Miliband has just condemned teachers and civil servants for a one-day work stoppage to protest savage
conservative government cuts in pensions. The sheep-like Miliband declared the one-day strike as “wrong.” Tony Blair did his best to sever all connections between the Labour Party and anything other than fawning obeisance to the bankers and the City of London — and Miliband is clearly set on following in his footsteps. Move now to France. Lenin would have given yet another caustic laugh at the sight of Strauss-Kahn calculating that the post of managing director of the IMF — bludgeon of the major capitalist powers to extort money from the poorer nations — as a fine qualification to be the presidential candidate of the French social democrats. The social democratic tradition is played out — and the future for radical challenges to the Money Power lies in reformulations of populism, perhaps in the style of Marine Le Pen now shifting the French Front National away from the unappetizing fascist idiom deployed by her father, Jean-Marie Le Pen. It really is a bit rich to hear preachments from Germany about the importance of paying debts. Ninety percent of all Germans oppose a bailout for Greece on the grounds of the latter’s aversion to paying reparations for its supposed profligacy. Never has a country flourished more mightily than Germany from flouting reparations and debts. Albrecht Ritschl, a professor at the London School of Economics, points out in an interview in Der Spiegel that Germany welshed on loans from the U.S. to pay the reparations levied by the Allies after World War I. The Germans invested the money in stocks, which went down the tubes in the crash of 1929. After World War II, a divided German was excused from reparations to countries that it had invaded, such as Greece. Under a 1953 treaty, the issue of reparations was on the table after reunification in 1990. But Ritschl says: “With the exception of compensation paid out to forced laborers, Germany did not pay any reparations after 1990 — and neither did it pay off the loans and occupation costs it pressed out of the countries it had occupied during World War II. Not to the Greeks, either.” Ritschl reckons Germany was “the biggest debt transgressor of the 20th century.” (Alexander Cockburn is coeditor with Jeffrey St. Clair of the muckraking newsletter CounterPunch.

LETTERS We all need to share responsibility for upgrading septic tanks To the editor, It was a very sad day this week, Monday, June 27. My kids and I watched the waters of Meredith’s Lake Winnipesaukee scum over with cyanobacteria. It concentrated along the shoreline out into the open water to form a bloom about 60 feet wide off our dock. Have you ever driven a boat through what looked like yellowgreen Kool-Aid on Winnipesaukee? We did Monday on West Bear Island, and it was gross. It was sad to tell my kids that they couldn’t swim in the water, again. The New Hampshire Department of Environmental Safety issued an advisory Tuesday to all avoid contact with the waters off of West Bear Island, Meredith, until the bloom dissipated. The right combination of phosphate seed from antiquated lake cottage cesspools hand-dug years ago, together with lawn fertilizer and removal of vegetative buffers have created ripe conditions for cyanobacteria to flourish. All it takes these days is a warm, sunny, calm day following a few rainy ones and you will witness first-hand cyanobacteria off of your dock too. If you see what looks like silvery specks suspended in the water, that’s cyanobacteria. If you see yellow flecks floating on the surface, it’s not pollen – its higher concentrations of cyanobac-
teria. It will float and bind together to eventually turn three feet of water depths green as it continues to proliferate. Do not drink it, do not swim in it, and keep pets out of it. It’s a known neurotoxin, so it’s not something you can boil and drink. Mostly use your judgment and stay out of the water when it is heavily concentrated. I’m sure each one of you believes your septic system is fine, and that it is someone else’s to blame. We all need to share the responsibility and upgrade our septic systems. We all need to change bad habits; don’t wash your boats with soap or bathe in the lake as some of you still do. Immediately stop fertilizing your lawns, and please leave the shoreline vegetation in its place. We all must share the burden to limit phosphate and nitrogen feed into our beautiful clear waters to save this lake for our children and grandchildren. If that does not matter to you, and public health is not your concern, stew about your real estate value and think about whether someone will want to buy your waterfront home with cyanobacteria along your waterfront. Now do I have your attention? I hope so. Bette Higley Bear Island, Lake Winnipesaukee Meredith
We also had to bail Democrats out of their last 2 budget deficits To the editor, Lost in the commentary of passing the state budget was the fact that, for the first time in recent history, not only does the budget affect and support the coming biennium, but it also closes the governor’s “red ink” gap for the current biennium. As if the current budget were not difficult enough we had to bail out Gov. Lynch and the previous Democratic majorities from their deficit of the last two budgets. Gov. Lynch actually attended the committee of conference on the budget and admitted to legislators that this year’s budget was so deeply in dept that there was, “not enough money in the Rainy Day Fund to balance the budget for the fiscal year ending on June 30th.” Since there wasn’t enough money left to bail the governor out of his mess, the Legislature added a section to the budget to provide the necessary funding to end
again, this development went unreported in the media. It should also be noted that Republicans took steps to restore to the budget many items that Gov. Lynch took out, such as funding for the developmentally disabled wait list. He cut all school construction aid payments. In fact, the state still owes $540-million to our towns over the next 30 years for construction projects funded before the school construction aid program was suspended in the last biennium. We put that funding back in the budget and we made sure that our towns and school districts were held harmless. It is critically important to bear in mind anytime you hear Gov. Lynch say that “we could do better” in our budget that he is not only the problem criticizing the solution but he actually made the problem worse as it was being fixed. Rep. D.J. Bettencourt

How sad to see what these kids are doing to Laconia’s Wyatt Park To the editor, When I was at Wyatt Park in Laconia the other day with my grandchildren I was appalled at the scene I saw. There was a port-a-potty tipped over, the swings had been looped around the top bar so that no one could swing on them, the trash barrels had been turned over so that there was garbage all over and the ground was covered with cigarette butts. I makes me so sad to see this and to realize there are people (children and juveniles) in our community who have
such a lack of respect for others’ property. I makes me sad that my own grandchildren can’t play in the park because of those foul mouthed, rude people who have no respect. It makes me sad that the city seems to be doing nothing to stop the trashing of our park. The blame has to also go the parents of those doing the trashing. Do you know where your children are and do you really know what they are doing? Priscilla Corliss Laconia

Read this from Cicero, written in 55 B.C., & see if it sounds familiar To the editor, The following was a letter to the editor that was in the June 30 N.H. Union Leader. I think it is worthy of a re-print in The Sun due to the current problems facing this country. The letter was sent in by Ward Rowley of New London. The comparison to today’s issues is amazing. In 55 B.C. Cicero wrote the following: “The budget should be balanced, the treasury should be refilled, public
debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work instead of living on public assistance.” What have we learned in 2066 years? Dave Schwotzer Meredith

To the editor, “Widespread, corrosive belief that on any given issue, the underdog is considered more righteous simply because they have less power”. That is the official definition of Underdogma as defined by Michael Prell in his book of the same name. Corrosive, come on, what’s the harm you say right? Why, for heaven’s sake, is it not cool to root for the underdog, the little guy? Well, it seems that our enemies use our ingrained love for the underdog to relentlessly trash American power. So, it seems our automatic gut reaction to dislike someone just because they are powerful or rich has been extremely detrimental to this country. Of course, most conservatives, libertarians and critical thinkers already know this. Those who think in a common sense rational way, understand that bypassing the human litmus test of judging people and nations based on whether they are doing good or not is well, nonsensical, irrational and potentially deadly. Michael Prell points out that the actions of the United Nations is a perfect (and perfectly detestable) example of institutional underdogma. While repeatedly putting restraints on big powers and at times demonizing them, the UN simultaneously lifts up some of the most horrendous and despicable small nations on the planet. One of the most outrageous examples is when in 2010, they placed Iran on the U.N. Commission on the Status of Women. Yes, the country that stones women to death for the crime of adultery and deems a woman’s testimony as worth half that of a man in their judicial system. At the same time, they hauled the United States before the Human Rights Commission to explain their human rights record.

slaughtered thousands of Tibetan monks who were seeking the very rights enumerated by the U.N. Human Rights Council. On that very same date, the U.N. afforded a Saudi-based charity linked to terrorist groups the same credibility as UNICEF (United Nations Children’s Fund). As Michael Prell points out, institutionalized dogma appears to be trying to boost the very worst nations to an elevated status while dragging down good nations and discredit them every chance they get. The fact that this practice is embraced inside the United States by modern day liberals, socialists, Marxists, statists and progressives is proof positive of their illogical, fantasy ideology of redistributing wealth and creating equality of the masses. The quixotic, zany leftists, seemingly lacking even a modicum of common sense, never seem to grasp the notion that their ideal is a virtual impossibility. At least, not until the entire planet is endowed with a population that has the exact same intellect, education, motivation, creativity, skill level and emotional capacity. Obviously, not remotely plausible even if lovely folks like Margaret Sanger, Planned Parenthood founder and promoter of eugenics and John Holdren were able to kill off all the “incompetents and social undesirables”. John Holdren is President Obama’s science czar, who along with Paul Erlich, have this theory on population control through forced sterilization, among other methods of extreme prejudice, since quality of life is linked to having fewer people living on the planet. Underlying John’s core belief, other than crippling our nation with Cap and Trade taxes, is that we must surrender our sovereignty to a one world government. As Charles Krauthammer points out, “It’s the first time in U.S. history we have a president who preaches to the world that America is not intrinsically good, not intrinsically exceptional, but has been corrupt from the very beginning, so we would want to curtail the power of such a country”. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are disciples of Saul Alinsky. Iranian/ American Valerie Jarrett, Obama’s top senior advisor and long time pal, is a Chicago bully bureaucrat who is inextricably linked to corruptocrat ex-Governor Richard Daley and consee next page

Algae bloom warning for western shore of Bear Is. lifted MEREDITH (AP) — The New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services has lifted a bacteria warning issued earlier this week for an area of Lake Winnipesauke in Meredith just in time for the July 4 weekend from preceding page victed felon, Tony Rezko of Assyrian descent. Please check out Eileen F. Toplansky’s August 18, 2010 column entitled, “What Would a Jihadist Do?” at www.americanthinker.com/ archives for dozens of verified examples of President Obama’s pro-Muslim, anti-American policies. There is not much question that anti-American, underdogmatist blood courses through the veins of far too many in the Obama administration. After reading “Underdogma, I have begun to make sense of how Marxists, radical Muslims and the liberal academic elite all seem to have the same goal of marginalizing America’s exceptionalism to level planet Earth’s playing field for all in their psychotically deluded vision of a one world Utopia. I believe Michael Prell is absolutely right when he states, “Reducing America’s power is philosophically
On Tuesday the state imposed a cyanobacteria warning for the west shoreline of Bear Island on Lake Winnipesaukee in Meredith. The state lifted the warning after levels of the bacteria fell below a state threshold. wrong. By all objective measures, the United States of America is the greatest, noblest, most honorable and charitable nation in world history. It is a beacon of freedom and opportunity to oppressed people around the world”. Bill Clinton’s National Security Advisor, Sandy Berger was quoted in October 1999 as having said, “we are the first global power in history that is not an imperial power. America is the first global power or “hegemon” that seeks exit strategies instead of empires after American soldiers win battles”. Sounds pretty exceptional to me, what do you think? I think in November 2012, we should vote in someone as president who wants to be the leader of an amazing, one of a kind, exceptional Republic because they believe that precisely defines the Unites States of America.

BELMONT — Officials from the town’s Public Works Department and the N.H. Department of Environmental Services warned residents on the public water supply that recent tests indicate higher than normal levels of chloroform. According to the town website — www.belmontnh.org. — chloroforms are bacteria naturally present however can be an indicator of potentiallyharmful bacteria. In Belmont’s case, four of six recent tests showed chloroforms in more samples than are allowed but further testing indicated there is no other bacteria present including fecal chloroform or E. coli.
Residents have been told this is not an emergency and, for the most part, people don’t need to boil their water. The notice said people with “specific health concerns” may wish to contact their health care professionals. Public Works Director Jim Fortin said the water department immediately added chlorine to the water supply and will continue to flush the system and repeat testing. He said the town anticipates the problem will be resolved within 15 days. For more information go to www. belmontnh.org or contact the water department at 267-8301. — Gail Ober
MAID from page 2 what they now think of the truthfulness of the woman’s allegations against Strauss-Kahn. Investigators found traces of his semen on her uniform, and that is powerful evidence there was a sexual encounter of some kind, though the defense has said anything that happened was not forced. Still, the apparent lies about her background and her behavior could seriously damage her credibility as a witness if the case goes to trial. Edward A. McDonald, a defense lawyer and former federal prosecutor and assistant district attorney in New York City, said dropping the case could be next. Prosecutors are “sending a real clear sign that they’ve gotten to the point where they think there is little hope of rescuing the case,” he said. Another hearing is set for July 18. Strauss-Kahn did not get his passport back and will not yet be allowed to leave the country, but he will be free to travel within the U.S., his lawyers said. Strauss-Kahn himself remained mum Friday, but he strode confidently up the granite steps to the courthouse with his wife, French journalist Anne Sinclair, at his side, after they arrived in a Lexus SUV. After the short hearing, he slowly walked out the building with his arm on her shoulder, smiling at the crowd outside. Moments later, the accuser’s attor-
ney, Kenneth Thompson, fired back. “It is clear that this woman made some mistakes, but that doesn’t mean she’s not a rape victim,” the lawyer said. The 32-year-old hotel maid accused Strauss-Kahn of chasing her through his luxury suite in May, trying to pull down her pantyhose and forcing her to perform oral sex. Thompson said Strauss-Kahn bruised the woman’s genitals, tore a ligament in her shoulder and ripped her stockings. “From day one, she has described a violent sexual assault that Dominique Strauss-Kahn committed against her,” Thompson said. “She has described that sexual assault many times, to prosecutors and to me, and she has never once changed a single thing about that encounter.” He accused the district attorney of shying away from the high-profile case and blasted as lies media reports that the woman was involved with a drug dealer. The New York Times, citing unidentified law enforcement officials, reported that the woman was recorded on the phone with an incarcerated man soon after she made the allegations against Strauss-Kahn, discussing whether to press her case. The newspaper said the man had been arrested on marijuana possession charges and had deposited cash in the woman’s bank account.

GILFORD — Today marks the opening of the Shepherd’s Hut Market, a farm stand and gift shop at Ramblin’ Vewe Farm on Morrill Street, which will serve as a welcome center for those visiting and exploring perhaps the most pastoral, serene landscape in the Lakes Region. The enterprise is the initiative of Joyce Keyser, whose husband Jeff, a shepherd, has managed the farm since it began operations 24 years ago. “I have a retailing background,” she said, “and I’ve discovered that more and more people have a strong, desire for locally for food that is grown and raised locally.” The Keysers live on the farm, but own and farm land in Belmont and Sanbornton, where they are building a home. “We have a flock of sheep, chickens and miniature donkey in Sanbornton and we have market gardens in Sanbornton and Belmont,” Keyser said. After offering their produce at farmer’s markets around the region, the Keysers decided to serve their customers on a regular schedule from one location. In 2008, Dick and Betty Persons who owned the 292-acre property, with a halfmile of frontage on either side of Morrill Street, ensured that it remains forever a working farm by donating it to an irrevocable charitable trust. Some 172 acres of woodland,

Planned Parenthood says birth control services were stopped by council vote CONCORD (AP) — Planned Parenthood of Northern New England says it has had to stop providing birth control services after New Hampshire’s Executive Council voted against renewing a $1.8 million contract with the organization. Opponents said the state should not contract with Planned Parenthood because it also provides abortions. Steve Trombley, the organization’s president and chief executive officer, said the decision cost 92 people access to
birth control services on Friday alone and more seeking help to avoid pregnancies will be turned away. Trombley said he is hoping the council will reverse its 3-2 vote against renewing the contract. Reproductive health services for adolescents, minorities and low-income women and men are affected by the council’s decision. Planned Parenthood continues to offer limited patient health care services at six health centers in New Hampshire.
from preceding page New England Forestry Trust while the pastures and hayfields are managed by the Ramblin’ Vewe Farm Trust. The farm is home to a flock of two breeds of purebred sheep . The Targhees, which originated in Idaho in 1926, and the Suffolks, or “black faces,” raised in southeastern England for the past two centuries, are bred for their fine wool and tasty meat. Jeff Keyser, who travels the region shearing sheep each spring and fall, raises breeding stock for the New England market together with lambs that the Keyser’s daughter Cassidy puts through their paces in the show ring. Apart from homegrown produce, the Shepherd’s Hut Market will also feature lamb and wool from the flock. “We will have legs, shoulders, chops, ground lamb and rack of lamb as well as do our best to fill requests from customers,” Keyser said, adding that she also intends to provide tips and recipes for preparing lamb for the table. At the same time, Keyser will appealing to weavers and knitters by offering
yarns and roving. “We’ll be making our wool from our sheep,” she said. Last winter, Jeff took up sugaring and the shelves are stocked with syrup made from maples on the farm. Keyser said she stock cold drinks and snacks for those walking the trails as well as a selection of novelties and gifts, including note cards featuring her photographs of livestock, wildlife and landscapes. “Photography has become a hobby and I’m really enjoying it,” Keyser said. Calling the store something of an experiment, Keyser said “we want very badly to promote this farm. It is such a serene place. We want more people to enjoy it.” The market will be open on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 2 p.m. until 6 p.m., on Friday from 1 p.m. to 7 p.m. and on Saturdays between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. On Thursdays Keyser will be at the market in downtown Laconia from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. “But, watch for the ‘open’ flag on Sundays,” Keyser said. “We may be here.”
LIGHTS from page one flow of traffic dwindled. Director of Public Works Paul Moynihan said that one by one the loop detectors in the pavement at each leg of the intersection, which prompt the lights to change in response to traffic, have failed during the last six months. Moynihan said the signals are currently operating on an automatic cycle, which is insensitive to the volume of traffic from any one
direction. As a result motorists must stand at red lights longer than necessary when the traffic flow in the other direction is light. The council authorized transferring $33,000 from the contingency account to fund the repairs, which Moynihan indicated may include replacing the loop detectors in the pavement with video cameras mounted on the mast arms. He said that the project could be completed within a month. — Michael Kitch CUSTOM HOMES • RENOVATIONS • INSURANCE REPAIRS

CIRCUS from page one mother, Linda, who used to perform as a dancer in the New Pickle Circus in the San Francisco area before she married and moved to New Hampshire. Members of the circus, who performed Thursday night in Merrimack, were also up bright and early to get the caravan of 25 vehicles needed to transport the circus tent, animals and performers to Laconia. “The show ended at 9:30 last night and we had everything taken down and packed and ready to go by 11. We got up at 4:30 to drive to Laconia,’’ said John Moss, ringmaster for the Kelly Miller Circus since 2007. “People see a circus in town and think it’s chaos. But it’s actually very well-planned from the logistical standpoint in order to set up everything, put on performances and break things down, pack up and move on to the next town.’’ Moss said that Laconia is the furthest north that the Oklahoma-based circus will perform this year but that he has been New Hampshire before when he was with the Big Apple Circus when it visited Hanover. He was enthused by the large turnout for the raising of the big top and said that’s an indication there will
be big crowds this weekend for the circus, which features elephants, tigers, camels, Wild West horses as well as juggling, acrobatic acts, clowns and a fire eater. “There’s a pent-up hunger for this. A circus hasn’t come to Laconia since the early 60s,’’ said Jim Hughes, former Colonial Theater and Gilford Twin Cinema manager. He said that the last circus was set up near New Hampshire Ball Bearing in the O’Shea Industrial Park in 1961 or 1962. Robyn Davidson of Computer Magic said that she was thrilled to see the circus come to town. “I grew up in Springfield, Mass., and there was always a circus there. The one thing I missed as a parent was being able to take my kids to a circus,’’ she said. Don Vachon of Wilkins-Smith American Legion Post 1 said that advance ticket sales for the circus, which opened with a show last night and performs three times today (at 2, 5 and 7:30 p.m.) and twice on Sunday (2 and 5 p.m.), were strong very strong throughout the week. He said that the Legion approached the circus as a way to raise funds for its scholarship program and originally see next page

Town of Belmont will put 20 pieces of property up for auction on July 23 BELMONT — Selectmen have hired auctioneer Tom McGlauflin to help sell 20 pieces of town-owned property that have been taken for non-payment of taxes in the past three years. McGlaiflin will provide sample posters, abutter’s mailings, bidding acknowledgements and other duties required for a public auction. According to Selectmen’s minutes of May 16, the money will be held in the general fund and will be expended for specific projects to be determined by a town warrant vote. McGlauflin said the minimum deposit on each of the properties will be $2,000 in hopes the deposit encourages only serious bidders to attend. Starting bids for the individual properties will being at their assessed value and Town Administrator Jeanne Beaudin said Selectmen have set minimum acceptable sale prices for the lots but, under the Right-To-Know law provision regarding municipal property sales and purchases, the minimums are from preceding page wanted to have it held at Opechee Park as a way of boosting the city’s July Fourth celebration.

And he says that the Legion wants to bring the circus back again and again. “They put on an incredible show. We hope to have them here long-term,’’ says Vachon.

BODY from page 2 tal and the cause to be asphyxiation by drowning. The probe shows the water in the Fall River pool was murky from the time the pool opened for the season last Saturday. Visibility tests conducted Wednesday revealed a diver couldn’t be seen at a depth of 3 1/2 to 4 feet below the surface of the water. “Although this office is releasing this preliminary information regarding the case today, the investigation into the death, the circumstances surrounding it and the delay in discovering the body is ongoing,” the district attorney’s office said in a statement. The death at Veterans Memorial Pool surprised and troubled swimmers, residents and public officials.
The Department of Conservation and Recreation, which runs the pool, immediately closed all 30 deepwater swimming pools and began reviewing safety and operational procedures. Department of Conservation and Recreation Commissioner Edward Lambert said that 11 pools were set to reopen Friday after safety inspectors found they met all safety guidelines and their staffs are well-trained. Additional pools will reopen once their reviews are complete. But the Fall River pool will not reopen anytime soon because its entire staff has been suspended. City officials also have said that they will not issue a permit to reopen until state officials assure them that swimmers will be safe there.

Gonzalez bat again key as Red Sox pick up a win in Houston, 7-5 HOUSTON (AP) — Adrian Gonzalez hit a goahead two-run double after Dustin Pedroia drove in a pair of runs during Boston’s six-run seventh inning, helping the Red Sox rally for a 7-5 win over the Houston Astros on Friday night. Marco Scutaro started the game with his third homer of the season, but Boston didn’t get another hit until J.D. Drew began the seventh inning with a single. Josh Reddick and Drew Sutton each drove in a run before Pedroia’s bases-loaded single with one out tied it at 5 and set up Gonzalez’s clutch swing. Houston starter Bud Norris struck out 10 in sixplus innings, but was charged with four runs and four hits in the opener of the third-ever series between these teams and first since 2008. Red Sox knuckleballer Tim Wakefield yielded a season-high 11 hits with five runs in 5 1-3 innings in his first appearance against the Astros since July 1993 for the Pirates at the Astrodome. Jonathan Papelbon worked around Hunter Pence’s two-out single to earn his 16th save. Pence finished with two hits and two RBIs for the last-place Astros, who have dropped 12 of 16. Reddick’s RBI double in the seventh drove in Drew and chased Norris. Sutton delivered a run-scoring single before Sergio Escalona (1-1) plunked pinch-hitter Darnell McDonald to load the bases and set up Pedroia’s hit.
Norris walked one in the second, third, fifth and sixth, but largely stayed out of trouble until the seventh. All the strikeouts helped, including the side in the fourth inning. Norris also singled in Clint Barmes to give Houston a 5-1 lead in the sixth. Norris’ hit chased Wakefield, who was replaced by Dan Wheeler (1-1). Carlos Lee had an RBI double for the Astros, and Angel Sanchez drove in a run with a bunt hit. Pence had a sacrifice fly in the first and a run-scoring ground-rule double in the second when a fan reached onto the field to try and grab the grounder and was escorted out of the stadium after the play. NOTES: Scutaro was batting leadoff with Jacoby Ellsbury out with an illness. ... Houston 2B Jeff

BOSTON (AP) — The New York Times Co. has sold more than half of its stake in the Boston Red Sox for $117 million. The newspaper said in a regulatory filing that it realized a pre-tax gain of $64 million in the deal for 390 of its shares. It said it would continue seeking a buyer for the remaining 310 shares in Fenway Sports Group, the parent company of the Red Sox, the Liverpool Football Club, 80 percent of the NESN television network and 50 percent of Roush Fenway Racing. The company bought 17.8 percent of the ballclub’s parent company for $75 million in 2002, then said three years ago that it is looking to sell.

Keppinger was out for the second straight day after experiencing nausea before Thursday’s game. ... Boston’s Kevin Youkilis returned after sitting out Thursday’s game in Philadelphia with a bone bruise in his left foot. ... Red Sox manager Terry Francona says LF Carl Crawford is unlikely to return to the lineup when he’s due to come off the disabled list on Sunday. Crawford strained a hamstring in a June 17 game against Milwaukee. “He needs some more time,” Francona said. Crawford, a Houston native, was disappointed that he probably won’t get to play in his hometown this weekend.

Jane Dempsey, 58 BOURNE, Mass. — Jane (Ford) Dempsey, of Bourne, MA, died peacefully surrounded by family on June 29th. Born in Brighton, MA on August 19, 1952, to the late Edward and Jeanne (Desrosiers) Ford, Jane graduated from Our Lady of the Presentation Academy in Newton, MA. She worked at New England Telephone, and continued to work in a variety of positions to the now Verizon and Byers Engineering. Jane enjoyed creative hobbies such as toll painting, knitting and crocheting. She knitted warm scarfs that were sent to our troops in Iraq & Afghanistan. She loved her home on Cape Cod and was a devoted Red Sox and Celtics fan. She had a quick wit and always had a smile in her voice, especially when she spoke of her beloved grandson, Hunter.
Jane is survived by her husband, Fred Dempsey of Bourne, MA; daughter Jennifer Boughton and her husband Justin, daughter Kristin Champoux, and grandson Hunter Boughton, all of Laconia; sister to Joan Roache and her husband William from Norfolk, MA, Ruth Dzialo and her husband John from Bridgewater, MA. She was the aunt of Karen Rich, John Dzialo, Brian, David, and Jillian Roache. A wake will be held Tuesday, July 5th, from 3 to 7 pm at The Corpus Christi Catholic Church, 324 Quaker Meeting House Road, Sandwich MA, followed by a Mass of Christian Burial on Wednesday at 10:30 am. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to Hospice & Pallative Care of Cape Cod (www.hospicecapecod.org).
CHAVEZ from page 2 for him to return with all the strength in the world,” said Luis Rodriguez, a Chavez supporter who joined the crowd. Meanwhile, state television aired prerecorded video of a meeting in Cuba on Wednesday in which Chavez was shown discussing road projects and other issues with his brother Adan, his foreign minister and a military chief. “Despite the difficulties, Venezuela will be victorious,” Chavez said. The effort to portray business as usual comes after three weeks of uncertainty in which Chavez was largely out of sight and speculation was rife that he might be seriously ill. Before his speech on Thursday, Venezuelans had heard only that Chavez had undergone surgery to remove a pelvic abscess. The 56-year-old Chavez was noticeably thinner and pale as he disclosed he had two operations in Cuba, including one that removed a tumor in which there were “cancerous cells.”
The socialist leader had previously vowed to win re-election next year and govern for another decade or more. Now he has yet to say whether that plan still stands. In a country where the political system is so clearly identified with Chavez, it will be difficult for the president’s “socialist revolution” to continue without him, analysts say. “Chavismo without Chavez doesn’t exist,” said Joel D. Hirst, an international affairs fellow at the Washington-based Council of Foreign Relations. “The revolution is really about one man.” “If for some reason Chavez was not able to continue as president or to run in the 2012 election, it would produce a tectonic shift in Latin American politics.” Diego Moya-Ocampos, a political analyst with IHS Global Insight in London, agreed, calling Chavez’s announcement a “game-changer” because there is no obvious successor.

Lakes Region Real Estate Market Report / Roy Sanborn
The No. 1 real estate deal killer There can be any number of unexpected things that will kill a real estate deal these days. Home inspections and appraisals are the first things that come to mind. Mortgage underwriters are also coming up with innovative new ways to make life difficult for buyers, sellers, and real estate agents. Everyone is looking for perfect homes, at a perfect price, in a perfect world. Getting someone to actually write up an offer on a property today almost seems like a miracle all by itself. Having a seller accept an offer can be like the second coming of Jerry Garcia. Many times an offer is D.O.A. and no amount of resuscitation will save it from the real restate morgue. But does it need to be that way? Isn’t there a miracle cure? There sure is. It is called “NOBUT”. This miracle drug can be taken orally and you can get a 90 day trial supply absolutely free by contacting me at the phone number below. I will prescribe it to anyone buying or selling real estate. It works equally well on buyers and sellers. It almost goes without saying that in this uncertain market it is very difficult for buyers and sellers to see the same value in a property. Buyers often see the value of a property much lower than

it may actually be based partly on the gloom and doom media reports which may or may not be reflective of the current local regional market. Buyers are also scared of making a mistake by paying more than they need to. Buyers also can be greedy (not really in a bad way.) Everyone wants to buy everything at the cheapest possible price. There’s nothing wrong with that. That’s normal. But, buyers can also be blind to what may already be a good deal. If they get too greedy they are likely to have the seller dig his heels in and miss out on what is a realistically priced and great property. Sellers often, but not always, value their property higher than what the current market will bring. They paid “x” or have added this or that improving the property and would like to at least break even on the sale or perhaps make a little money for a down payment on their next place. That’s also very normal and expected. It has always been that way. The disparity between what the buyer wants to offer and what the sellers will accept seems to have become more exaggerated because there are so few buyers and because the see next page

from preceding page market has declined significantly. It is not unusual to see an initial offer that is so far from what a seller is willing to accept that it prompts a resounding “NO” without even a counter offer. This deal is D.O.A. The word “No” Is the number one deal killer. But just think of what would happen after taking just two “NOBUT” pills. A low offer is received by a seller. Instead of saying “NO”, he can only say “NOBUT, I will take this instead.” The buyer (who we have also had on “NOBUT” pills since they started looking for property nine months ago) gets the counter offer. Instead of saying “NO” and walking away, he will say “NOBUT, I’ll meet you half way!” This might go back and forth several times with no one uttering a single “NO” without the “BUT” after it, until surprisingly someone slips and says “YES!” This is the proverbial “making something out of nothing.” “NOBUT’s” unbelievable curative powers don’t stop there. It works equally well in situations where buyers and sellers have historically tried to “make something into nothing.” That usually occurs during the home inspection process where any number of issues seem to pop up
and cause gastric inflammation and other maladies that are too extreme to discuss here. During these attacks stricken buyers sometimes lapse into a unreasonable delirious state which can be contagious and can be contracted by the seller. There are countless documented cases where a perfectly good deal for both parties is ruined by the utterance of the deadly word “NO.” “NOBUT” prevents this from happening and helps buyers and sellers find common ground where the word “Yes” can safely be said. My point here is, I think, if you want to buy or sell real estate in this market, don’t reject an offer or counter offer without trying to work the deal a little and find some middle ground. A “NO” will most certainly get you nowhere. A “NOBUT” might actual make “something out of nothing” and get you where you want to be which is either in or out of the home. Seems simple to me… Log on to my blog at www.lakesregionrealestatenews.com and leave me your thoughts on this report or the real estate market in general.

By Holiday Mathis There’s a harmonious feeling in your heart, and you know you are connected to the people who paved the roads you drive on, to the waitress in the restaurant and to the man out walking his dog in the midday sun. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There’s a place inside you that is safe and protected. You hold the only key, you will never lose it, and no one can ever open the door to this place but you. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Promoting someone else’s happiness does not have to happen at the expense of your own. More than likely, there is a mutually satisfying arrangement that can be struck without either party feeling at all compromised. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Every person has a different chemical and emotional makeup, causing a different reaction from you. If someone is to be your good friend, it is important that you like who you are when you are with this person. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You have a certain way of charming people whether or not you want to. Enjoy the wave of popularity that occurs now. It will take a while to answer all your calls and messages. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 2). You like yourself more and more. Others feel this and become comfortable with if not enamored of your particular joie de vivre. There’s a financial breakthrough in the next six weeks when your efforts add up to a big payoff. You’ll take a chance in August and love where it leads. There’s a family expansion in September. Taurus and Gemini people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 15, 49, 25 and 13.
Get Fuzzy
HOROSCOPE
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You are skilled at the art of persuasion. You know to plant an idea in someone’s head and then back off and let it take root and grow. Your prospect will take ownership of the idea, believing it was his all along. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’ll make a startling statement just to get everyone’s attention. What you say is probably true, as well, but that’s beside the point. You’re really trying to get people to sit up and take notice. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’re on an information-gathering mission of sorts. Keep your questions unstructured and open, and people will tell you the most unusual facts about themselves and the world. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You won’t accept all you’re offered. Extraordinary generosity makes you feel beholden to the giver. You much prefer a level of generosity within a range you could potentially pay back at a later date. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You have every intention of re-creating yourself. By taking only one or two actions a day toward your goal, you will land in a future that is significantly different from the one in which you took no action at all. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You will be super-observant. People will reveal their moods to you in the way they move and interact -- much more so than they will in the words they choose, which will be safe and expected. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your attention is like Miracle-Gro. It makes things flourish. Whatever you appreciate (recognize the full worth of) will appreciate (raise in value) over time. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Saturday July 2, 2011— Page 19
––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Saturday, July 2, the 183rd day of 2011. There are 182 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On July 2, 1961, author Ernest Hemingway shot himself to death at his home in Ketchum, Idaho. On this date: In 1566, French astrologer, physician and professed prophesier Nostradamus died in Salon (sah-LOHN’). In 1776, the Continental Congress passed a resolution saying that “these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States.” In 1881, President James A. Garfield was shot by Charles J. Guiteau at the Washington railroad station; Garfield died the following September. (Guiteau was hanged in June 1882.) In 1926, the United States Army Air Corps was created. In 1937, aviator Amelia Earhart and navigator Fred Noonan disappeared over the Pacific Ocean while attempting to make the first round-the-world flight along the equator. In 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed into law a sweeping civil rights bill passed by Congress. In 1980, President Jimmy Carter signed a proclamation reviving draft registration. In 1986, ruling in a pair of cases, the Supreme Court upheld affirmative action as a remedy for past job discrimination. In 1991, actress Lee Remick died in Los Angeles at age 55. In 1994, a USAir DC-9 crashed in poor weather at Charlotte-Douglas International Airport in North Carolina, killing 37 of the 57 people aboard. One year ago: Gen. David Petraeus arrived in Afghanistan to assume command of U.S. and NATO forces after his predecessor, Gen. Stanley McChrystal, was fired for intemperate remarks he’d made about Obama administration figures in Rolling Stone magazine. The United States defeated Japan 7-2 to win its seventh consecutive world softball championships. British novelist Beryl Bainbridge, 77, died in London. Today’s Birthdays: Country singer Marvin Rainwater is 86. Jazz musician Ahmad Jamal is 81. Actor Robert Ito is 80. Actress Polly Holliday is 74. Former White House chief of staff John H. Sununu is 72. Writer-director-comedian Larry David is 64. Luci Baines Johnson, daughter of President Lyndon B. Johnson, is 64. Actor Saul Rubinek is 63. Rock musician Roy Bittan is 62. Rock musician Gene Taylor is 59. Actress-model Jerry Hall is 55. Actor Jimmy McNichol is 50. Country singer Guy Penrod is 48. Rock musician Dave Parsons is 46. Singer Michelle Branch is 28. Actress Vanessa Lee Chester is 27. Figure skater Johnny Weir is 27. Actress-singer Ashley Tisdale is 26. Actress Lindsay Lohan is 25.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Readers: As promised, one more day on counseling: Dear Annie: Is counseling helpful? You bet. Every person sees a situation differently. Counselors give us a viewfinder into the other side so we can empathize and understand. They teach us that conflict is normal and healthy and give us the skills to fight fair. Counselors help us see how our past experiences may affect our current circumstances. They let us vent our frustrations without being judgmental and guide us to change for the better. Counselors teach us to stop wishing for someone who doesn’t exist. -- Problem Gone From California: My husband and I went to counseling every week for three years. The counselor was terrific, and I learned a lot about how to cope. However, at the end of three years, I asked my husband whether he was planning to make any changes, and he said, “No.” So I said, “Why are we wasting the money?” Maryland: Back in the late 1980s, I was a newlywed college student working a late shift at a job I hated. I had developed the inconvenient tendency to burst into tears at random moments for no apparent reason. I found a certified social worker by blindly picking a name from my health plan’s list of providers. I can’t believe how lucky I was. After five sessions, he looked me in the eye and quietly told me, “I can’t take your money anymore. You’re tired. Get a job you like with regular hours.” I followed his advice, and things got better immediately. Kentucky: For my girlfriend and me, counseling has been nothing but a waste of time and money. We’ve gone through several counselors, each with no results. We’ve been told things such as, “Just keep working at that, and it will get better,” “Go out and buy this book, it will help you,” and “If this
isn’t working, you can’t be trying hard enough. Greensboro, N.C.: My wife left me for another man, and I became a single father raising a troublesome son. My sister suggested counseling, and one day, on impulse, I drove to a family counseling center and sat in the waiting room. A woman asked if I needed help, and I said, “I think so.” She didn’t say anything, but the waterfall came. I couldn’t stop talking, and so many things rolled out of my mouth and eyes that they surprised me. When I got outside of the building, I felt 30 pounds lighter. It was all I needed to focus on the things before me from then on. Fairfield, Conn.: When I separated from my wife of 11 years, I was totally unprepared to live alone. I missed my kids and was not sleeping well. One Sunday when I was distraught, I went to a phone booth and called a number for help in the Yellow Pages. I spilled my guts about my life, and this person gave me the name and phone number of a counselor and arranged an appointment. This counselor was an angel from heaven. He pushed me to confront my mother’s death, which I had never gotten over. Now, 31 years later, I’ve been remarried for 28 years and am doing fine. Over the years, I have learned to realize that not all women are going to leave me. Seeking help was the best thing I’ve ever done for myself. Dear Annie: I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, and doctors begged me to get therapy along with medication. I absolutely refused. But after five years, I gave it a chance. What a huge difference it made in my life. I found my counselor through social services because I had no insurance. Also, Catholic Charities is a great place, and they charge on a sliding scale if you don’t have insurance. -- Better in Pennsylvania

N.H. Boat Museum in need of volunteers
WOLFEBORO — The New Hampshire Boat Museum (NHBM) is seeking volunteers to support a wide range of activities. In 2010, 179 volunteers donated over 3,000 hours to organize and host the many educational programs and mission-related events offered by the Museum, while enjoying the camaraderie of a great group of people. Among some of the current volunteer opportunities, the Boat Building School can use more patient woodworkers to join the happy crew that helps students create boats; Model Yacht Club needs an inwater rescue boat to rescue the remote-controlled model sailboats on windy Tuesday afternoons on Back Bay; Community Sailing could use additional support in maintaining the sailboats used in the collaborative program with the Town’s Park and Recreation Department; Grant writers are needed to research, write and submit persuasive proposals. Training available; Special Events are scheduled

Weight loss expert to give free talk at Trinity Church in Meredith on Wednesday MEREDITH — Roberta Russell, author, lecturer, and “happy loser of 70 pounds,” will give a free talk about permanent weight loss at Trinity Church at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, July 6. Anyone who would like to assess weight-loss options realistically and develop a plan based on one’s natural assets and what has been shown to work through the latest scientific research, is invited to attend. Russell will explain how to significantly extend one’s lifespan and reduce the risk of diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke, certain cancers, gout, gall bladder disease, and a myriad of other overweight-related disorders, by reducing weight to a
