Volunteers quickly put together Make-A-Wish dream vacation on the big lake for 13-year-old Manchester girl BY ADAM DRAPCHO
The Dark Knight Rises Pg13 (Plays 1st) Dark Shadows Pg13
THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
MEREDITH — When Make-A-Wish NH asked Angelica, a 13 year-old from Manchester, what she really, really wanted, the answer was time. Time to spend with her family, in a place where they could swim and enjoy one another’s company. Volunteer wish granters Maureen Cronin and Kim Brady took that idea and, with help from several friends, developed it into a week at a Lake Winnipesaukee-side home, filled with more fun activities than the family could handle. Angelica, her parents, brother and some close family friends spent the Fourth of July week in a home on Black Cat Island, enjoying exactly the kinds of things she had hoped. Asked what she liked about her stay, Angelica answered, “everything,” but above all she enjoyed the chance to be with those she loves, and those who love her. “Just spending time with them, knowing they were there,” she said. “The people I brought with me, they help me the most when I was struggling with this cancer, they helped me get through it. Diagnosed with lymphoma in February of this year, Angelica credited her family and neighbors for helping her find the strength to move forward with her prescribed regime of treatments. “It was kind of hard, I used to have a see VACATION page 10

BELMONT — If you’d asked the Vikings they’d have told you lightening was the result of the wrath of Thor, the ancient Romans would blame it on Jupiter, and the ancient Greeks would likely blame it on Zeus, or more exactly, his handmaiden Astrape. But if you ask Carlsons of Briarcrest Estates, they’ll tell you lightening was the thing that destroyed their Darby Drive home and could have taken their lives. Standing outside of the charred remains yesterday, the Carlsons watched as a salvage company recovered what they could from the home. “We were very lucky,” Donald Carlson said, adding that, for a reason he still doesn’t understand, when he rose at see FIRE page 12

Former Exeter Hospital worker arrested, called ‘serial infector’ CONCORD (AP) — A hospital worker accused of injecting himself with stolen drugs and contaminating syringes that infected at least 30 patients with hepatitis C was charged Thursday with federal drug crimes. David Kwiatkowski, a former technician at Exeter Hospital, was arrested Thursday morning at a Massachusetts hospital where he was receiving treatment. U.S. Attorney John Kacavas called Kwiatkowski a “serial infector” who worked in at least six other states, including one in which he is a suspect in a similar incident involving a hospital operating room. Kacavas declined to name any of the other states but said they are not clustered in one part of the country. “We are closer to the beginning of our investigation than the end,” Kacavas said.
Kwiatkowski, originally from Michigan, worked at Exeter’s cardiac catheterization lab from April 2011 through this past May, when he was fired. He told investigators that he learned he had hepatitis C in May, but Kacavas said there is evidence he had the liver-destroying disease since at least June 2010. “This serial infector has been contained, and the menace he posed to public health and safety has been removed,” Kacavas said. Authorities didn’t say in what hospital Kwiatkowski was being treated so he couldn’t be contacted for comment. Investigators believe Kwiatkowski, 33, stole syringes containing fentanyl, a powerful anesthetic more potent than morphine, and injected himself with them. They said he then put another liquid, such as saline, into the syringes, which were later used for patients. They said
a search of his vehicle found an empty fentanyl syringe and several needles. According to an affidavit, Kwiatkowski sometimes left the lab sweating profusely and attended procedures on his off days. One witness said he appeared to be “on something.” At least once, he was sent home for the day after a colleague told a supervisor that he was unfit to perform medical care, Kacavas said. Kwiatkowski was what is known as a “traveler,” a technician hired by hospitals for temporary stints around the country. In a statement, Exeter Hospital said he underwent drug testing and a criminal background check when he was hired. “It is deeply disturbing that the alleged callous acts of one individual can have such an impact on so many innocent lives. As a result of his alleged see HEPATITIS page 12
SUMMERVILLE, Ga. (AP) — More than 1,000 turtles made a slow-speed escape from their turtle farm in northwest Georgia. Turtle farmer David Driver tells sheriff’s officials he suspects vandals might be to blame for tearing down fences around his turtle ponds in Summerville. Authorities say that allowed the turtles — including snappers, Eastern paints and yellow-bellied sliders — to leave the farm and make a beeline to nearby ponds and creeks. Driver tells The Chattanooga Times Free Press that about 1,600 of the 2,200 turtles escaped. He says his business involves selling some turtles to pet-growing operations and others to China. Sheriff’s officials are continuing to search for the turtles. Summerville, known more as the home of folk artist Howard Finster than it is for turtles, is about 90 miles northwest of Atlanta.

TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) — A 4-year-old girl who went through two years of cancer treatments isn’t being allowed to go on a Make-A-Wish trip to Disney World because her father said she’s in remission and the trips should go to children who are sicker than his daughter. The young girl, McKenna May of Haskins, had the trip postponed twice while she was undergoing treatment for leukemia and finally was set to go in August when the father refused to sign off on the trip, the girl’s mother and grandmother said Thursday. The family said Make-A-Wish requires signatures from both parents if either have visitation rights or

Riverfront residents told underground contamination from dry cleaning process poses no health hazard By Michael Kitch LACONIA — An intensive round of air and groundwater sampling southward of Henry’s Dry Cleaners and Goodwill Industries in March found that although a plume of contaminated groundwater stretches beneath the Beacon Street West Condominiums toward the Winnipesaukee River, it poses no measurable risk to the health of residents or others. Some 35 people attended a public meeting at the middle school Wednesday evening where United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services (DES) personnel presented the results of their investigation of the site. Between 1986 and 2006 groundwater testing detected elevated levels of tetrachloroethylene or PCE, a chemical widely used in the dry cleaning process, on the property where the Allen-Rogers Factory operated. Since 2007, after Chinburg Builders, Inc. converted the factory buildings on the site to modern housing, DES has monitored the air quality of units in the larger of the two buildings to assess the effectiveness of the vapor intrusion barrier and vapor mitigation system installed during construction. Water and soil samples collected by DES at Henry’s Dry Cleaners on nearby Pleasant Street in 2009 indicated PCE and other chlorinated volatile organic compounds may have escaped from the site at some unknown time in the past. In 2011, DES sought assistance from EPA in locating the source of the contamination. Dennis Pinski of DES explained that PCE presented a risk only to those directly exposed to it, either through water or air. Since the neighborhood is served by municipal water, residents are not exposed to the contaminated groundwater. Consequently, much of the testing measured the risk of exposure to vapors. EPA took 14 indoor and three outdoor air samples from the two residential buildings at Beacon Street West, all of which recorded levels of PCE below the standards set by DES. Two dozen samples of soil gas were taken from under the slabs of the same buildings, only one of which indicated an elevated level of PCE. Another 24 soil gas samples were collected from beneath the foundations of the residential build-
ings, one of which exceeded standards, as well as at Henry’s Dry Cleaners and Goodwill, where elevated levels of PCE were recorded. Air sampling from vents on the roof of the residential buildings indicated that vapors are being captured and released to the atmosphere and not reaching the living space. To assess the extent of the groundwater contamination, EPA collected samples from a dozen monitoring wells, sunk nine borings between 15 feet and 46 feet and collected 116 soil samples. The results indicate that the source of contamination lies at or near Henry’s Dry Cleaners and the plume extends due south of the source, through the Beacon Street West complex to within feet of the Winnipesaukee River. John Regan of DES stressed that the source of contamination originated at some unknown time in the past. Following an inspection of Henry’s Dry Cleaners last November, DES informed the owner of the firm that not only were no violations found but also that “Henry’s Dry Cleaners, Inc. demonstrated a high level of achievement and it is obvious that Henry’s Dry Cleaners, Inc. takes its hazardous waste management seriously, and is commended for its performance.” One woman at the meeting expressed concern that the plume threatened the river. Dr. Terrence Johnson of EPA said that samples had not been taken from the river, but doubted that the levels of contamination detected posed a significant risk in light of the volume of water the river carries. “We may be talking about seven parts per billion,” said Dave Mickunas, referring to test results, which he likened to giving a penny to one person on each of the seven continents in a world of seven billion people. Nevertheless, Janis Tsang, the on-scene coordinator for EPA, said that the agency will install three clusters of wells near Henry’s Dry Cleaners and Goodwill to pinpoint the source of the contamination as well as collect data that will required to develop a strategy for tackling it. Instead of excavating contaminated soil and pumping contaminated groundwater, chemical and biological agents are being used to address PCE. Meanwhile, Regan said that DES will continue to monitor the systems in place at Beacon Street West for containing and capturing vapors.

Obama believes success is gift from government Perhaps the rain made the teleprompter unreadable. That’s one thought I had on pondering Barack Obama’s comments to a rain-soaked rally in Roanoke, Va., last Friday. Perhaps he didn’t really mean what he said. Or perhaps — as is often the case with people — when unanchored from a prepared text he revealed what he really thinks. “There are a lot of wealthy, successful Americans who agree with me — because they want to give something back,” he began, defending his policy of higher tax rates on high earners. “They know they didn’t — look, if you’ve been successful, you didn’t get there on your own. You didn’t get there on your own. I’m always struck by people who think, well, it must be because I was just so smart. There are a lot of smart people out there. It must be because I worked harder than everybody else. Let me tell you something — there are a whole bunch of hardworking people out there. “If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you’ve got a business — you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen.” In other words, Steve Jobs didn’t make Apple happen. It was the work of a teacher union member — er, great teacher — and the government agencies that paved I-280 and El Camino Real that made Apple happen. High earners don’t deserve the money they make, Obama apparently thinks. It’s the gift of government, and they shouldn’t begrudge handing more of it back to government. And that’s true, as he told Charlie Gibson of ABC News in 2008, even if those higher tax rates produce less revenue for the government, as has been the case with rate increases on capital gains. The government should take away the money as a matter of “fairness.” The cynical might dismiss Obama’s preoccupation with higher tax rates as an instance of a candidate dwelling on one of his few proposals that tests well in the polls. Certainly he doesn’t want to talk much about Obamacare or the stimulus package. Cynics might note that he spurned super-committee Republicans’ willingness last year to reduce tax deductions so as to actually increase revenue from high earn-
ers, without discouraging investment or encouraging tax avoidance as higher tax rates do. But maybe Obama’s CaptainAhab-like pursuit of higher tax rates just comes from a sense that no one earns success and that there’s no connection between effort and reward. That kind of thinking also helps to explain the approach taken by Sen. Patty Murray in a speech at the Brookings Institution Monday. She wants a tax rate increase on high earners so badly she said she’d prefer raising everyone’s taxes next year to maintaining current rates. Murray was first elected in 1992 as a state legislator who had been dismissed by a lobbyist as “just a mom in tennis shoes.” But in 20 years she’s become an accomplished appropriator and earmarker. “Do no harm,” Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke told members of Congress at a hearing yesterday, urging them to avoid the sharp spending cuts and tax rate increases scheduled for year’s end. But Murray is threatening to do exactly that kind of harm. Those prattling about how irresponsible Republicans are might want to ponder her threat. And to consider that Republicans remember what happened to the last Republican who agreed to such rate increases, George H.W. Bush in 1990. Seeking re-election in 1992, he won only 37-percent of the vote. Republicans won’t risk that again. The Obama Democrats seem to believe that there’s no downside risk in threatening huge tax increases for everyone and in asserting that if you’re successful “someone else made that happen.” But The Wall Street Journal’s Catherine McCain Nelson reported yesterday how affluent Denver suburbanites have soured on Obama. Obama tied John McCain 49 to 49-percent among voters over $100,000 income in 2008, but in NBC/ WSJ polls this year they’ve favored Mitt Romney 50 to 44-percent. Affluent voters trended Democratic over two decades on cultural issues. But economic issues dominate this year, and they may not appreciate Obama’s assertion that they don’t deserve what they’ve earned.

LETTERS We are now fully aware of Right-To-Know & will follow the law To the editor, On June 9th I attended the Right-toKnow workshop at the Local Government Center and learned first-hand about the the Right-to-Know law, RSA 91-A that applies to all elected and appointed town citizens that serve on boards and commissions. In his July 17 letter, former Sandwich moderator and selectman, Bob Rowan, correctly pointed out that our Sandwich Conservation Commission has not always provided the required twenty-four notice of the time and place of subcommittee meetings, so members of the public can attend; e-mails from and to commission members that deal with commission issues can only be used for agenda items, minutes, and announcements; voting members of commissions consist of three, five, but no more than seven appointees
(RSA 3b A 3); and commissions can recommend but not decide town policy. No member can represent the town, unless specifically authorized to do so. At our June 27th Commission meeting we discussed what I learned at the June 9 workshop, and I gave each member a one-page handout that summarized the salient points. More detailed information, with examples, is available in our files. We thank Mr. Rowan for his letter and will make sure that we run our meetings by strictly adhering to RSA 91-A. I urge towns to review the law with their attorneys. Often newly appointed or elected officials are not aware of these complex regulations. Not adhering to them, however, can leave a town open to costly and time-consuming litigation. Caroline Snyder, Chair Sandwich Conservation Commission
It should not only be the rich who can run for office in America To the editor, My question is, do we want a president who teaches our children that only way to get in office is to bad mouth people? To bring up their past and talk about every mistake they have ever made, and to have a lot of money? No! what we need is a poor man who doesn’t buy his way into office. We need someone who feels the truth and doesn’t make promises he can’t keep. The president does not make changes by himself. There is the Congress and the Senate and the Democrats and Republicans. People forget that that when they start blaming whatever goes wrong on what-
ever president is in office at the time, the truth is he cannot do a thing without the others helping him pass whatever he gets passed. So until the people clean out the Congressional branch and keep them in two years instead of a lifetime, then things will not change. It should not only be the rich who can run for office. There are a lot of honest hard working smart people would make a great president and its time they have a chance to run for office, too! Let’s get America back the way it used to be. Diana Field Franklin
Middle-class security can’t be achieved by cutting way to prosperity To the editor, President Obama believes that education is a key investment in our future. That’s why he has made investing in education the foundation of his vision for an economy built from the middle-out, which reforms our tax code so it rewards work over wealth and ends loopholes and tax breaks for corporations and the wealthiest. The president has invested in education, worked to raise K-12 standards, and he has taken steps to make college more affordable so that students from middle-class families can afford the education they need to compete in the global economy. A quality educa-
dent Obama’s plan to out-innovate, out-educate, and out-build the world. The president’s plan is a sharp contrast to Mitt Romney, who doesn’t seem to understand that to create true middle-class security, we can’t just cut our way to prosperity. Mitt Romney’s plan would add $5-trillion in new tax cuts for the wealthiest, which would result in higher deficits, higher taxes on middle-class families, or even more drastic cuts to investments in middle class security, like education, clean energy, and innovation and infrastructure. New Hampshire just can’t afford Romney economics. John S. Allen

LETTERS If it’s man who grants you your rights, man can take them away To the editor, In response to James Veverka’s letter, “You get your rights from humans, God’s law is not supreme here”, in response to George Brunstad’s eloquent letter of June 30, “The United State was and is founded as a nation under God.” Jim’s assertion that our nation was born with the ratification of our Constitution which went into effect March 4, 1789 and Bill of Rights in 1791, seems to be a concept that exists in Jim’s mind — which seems to be fabricated to accommodate Jim’s view — but not an historical understanding or even a contemporary understanding of our nation, as even today we celebrate the birth of our nation on July 4th, the alleged anniversary of the signing the Declaration of Independence. As to historical: George Brunstad did a masterful job of pointing out the internal evidence in our Constitution itself indicating that our country was born with the signing of the Declaration. This historical evidence is also borne out in the context of our history, as the tensions over slavery, which lead to our Civil War, played out as a moral dilemma for a country that was founded on the principle that all men are created equal. Indeed our government is a secular government, secular for its realm of authority, in all things secular. The 1st Amendment to the Constitution guarantees its citizens that the federal government as designed would not interfere with the free exercise of religion. Here we need to be clear, our country is the people, our Constitution begins “We the people”. As Abraham Lincoln put it our government has been a government “of the people, by the people, for the people.” We’ve been unique in this amongst the nations of the earth. Our government was established to help us live together in freedom and amongst the other nations of the earth. The people are the nation, the Declaration is the founding principle, the federal government is suppose to help us attain to to this principle — “We the people, in order to create a more perfect union” -— (this was Lincoln’s view also.) Liberal types for some time have magnified the idea of separation of church and state, to the end that a divorce should be created between God and government. In view of the Declaration, and in practice, through our history this was not the case. (This Godless philosophy from what I can see began to seriously take root first in our school system around the turn of the 19th century to the 20th century.) Please examine this excerpt from George Washington’s farewell Address: “Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports. In vain would that man claim the tribute of patriotism, who should labor to subvert these great pillars of human happiness, these firmest props of the duties of men and citizens. The mere politician, equally with the pious man, ought to respect and to cherish them. A volume could not trace all their connections with private and public felicity. Let it simply be asked: Where is the security for property, for reputation, for life, if the sense of religious obligation desert the oaths which are the instruments of investigation in courts of justice ? And let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion. Whatever may be conceded to the influence of refined
education on minds of peculiar structure, reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle. It is substantially true that virtue or morality is a necessary spring of popular government. The rule, indeed, extends with more or less force to every species of free government. Who that is a sincere friend to it can look with indifference upon attempts to shake the foundation of the fabric? Promote then, as an object of primary importance, institutions for the general diffusion of knowledge. In proportion as the structure of a government gives force to public opinion, it is essential that public opinion should be enlightened.” This was published in nearly every newspaper in the U.S. in 1796, upon Washington’s retirement from the presidency. I have to add concerning the last paragraph of this quote that Washington’s time was the day of the “Blue Back Speller” this was the book widely use in elementary education then. You can view a sample of one at http://www. english.illinois.edu/-people-/faculty/ debaron/402/402files/noahspell.html Neither was Washington alone in this opinion. So you see the free exercise of religion was encouraged in people so as to build a society with the virtuous character necessary for that people to be governed by a government ordained to preserve freedom. It is only natural and appropriate that the values of such a people would be reflected in their laws. And so it was. Yet the Civil war brought an even higher truth to bear; that is that in a nation under God, that even a majority cannot vote into existence laws that are evil in God’s sight and not come under His judgement for it. We are free to reject God’s law if we so choose. Yet in doing so we cannot avoid His judgement. This has already gotten quite long so I will try to be expeditious in my last couple of points. In the Declaration, Natures God is identified as the Creator, the Supreme Judge of the world, and a God in whom the signers are willing to entrust their lives to; that narrows it down, doesn’t it?. As to the Treaty of Tripoli: First for Jim’s got ya moment about a treaty being binding legally. The Treaty of Tripoli of 1797 was only in force for a couple of years. It’s not legally binding now. The Barbary pirates — from the Barbary States, Muslim states in North Africa, of which Tripoli was one — would attack merchant ships and take crew members and passengers hostage some would be sold into slavery some ransomed. If they found out you were a Christian you would treated very badly and many died. The Treaty of Tripoli was accompanied by a hefty tribute payment and was made at a time when we did not have a navy to fight these pirates. It was indeed an act of appeasement, not something I would build a political philosophy on. This finally led to the Barbary Wars. Melvin v. Easly is a North Carolina State Supreme Court case not a U. S. Supreme Court case. Finally, if man is the author if your rights, beware, then they are not inalienable, if man can grant them then man can take them away. John Demakowski Franklin
Fault for housing crisis falls directly on two Democrats in Congress To the editor, Blaming former President George W. Bush for the ineptitude of current President Barak H. Obama seems to be the only arrow remaining in the quiver of those on the left. In Thursday’s issue of The Daily Sun, Dr. Dawson did it again, blaming tax cuts initiated by Bush for making the rich richer and the poor poorer. Stale and not factual, to say the least. President Clinton left office after have been blessed with two events that shaped his presidency. The first was the historic change in the House of Representatives from its 40 year Democrat control, to a Republican Congress that had budget hawk John Kasich successfully push for and achieve, a balanced budget. Clinton’s other blessing was the fact that he was able to ride the “Dot Com Bubble” as the Internet grew exponentially to achieve its critical mass. President Bush 43 entered office as the Internet had reached its critical mass and the bubble burst, with a devastating effect on the economy. Then the horror of the 911 attacks further brought the economy to its knees. If Dr. Dawson would look at federal revenues for that period, he would find that those two events literally dropped revenues off the table for the first two years of the Bush Administration. When the Bush tax cuts took effect, starting in year three of his administration, federal revenues began to increase and the economy grew for 50 straight months. During that growth period, the middle class began to shrink . . . not because people were getting poor, but because they were becoming wealthy. It must be acknowledged that when President Bush left office, President Obama was faced with the burst of the “housing bubble” that has devastated the economy. While President Bush may be charged with excess spending in some areas, the impact of the housing crisis sits directly in the lap of Senator Chris Dodd and Congressman Barney Frank, both Democrats. The Bush administration tried on 17 different occasions to get those two committee chairmen to address the vulnerability that faced the banking industry and Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. On every one of those 17 occasions, the
Bush people were rebuffed by Dodd and Frank. Blaming Bush for those on low income ignores a few important facts. President Johnson initiated his War on Poverty in the middle of the 1960s. After an initial drop in the numbers, even though well over 15 trillion dollars have been spent to try and reduce the poverty numbers, they essentially have remained in the same range for over 40 years. And, the reason for that is that low income is generally the condition of the retired, elderly who are no longer in the work force, and the young and inexperienced who are just entering the work place and are in low paying entry level jobs. Dr. Dawson offers a lot of conjecture but little in facts. He would do well to do a little research into the successes in Wisconsin, such as how public employees have not lost jobs that they otherwise would have; how opening up health care to other than union-owned plans have saved millions of dollars for the taxpayers; how the state was able to avoid going over the fiscal cliff, etc. And by the way, in spite of many millions of dollars being spent by unions to recall Governor Walker so that they, unions, could retain their control, the citizens of Wisconsin gave Walker more votes in the recall than they did in his original election. If folks would like to get the facts on government revenue and spending, state and federal, they can explore the myriad information available at www. usgovernmentrevenue.com/. For those who would like to read more about the ineptness of the current administration, they might want to check out Edward Klein’s book “The Amateur”. Klein is a former foreign editor of Newsweek, and was the editor in chief of The New York Times Magazine. Experience is something that can’t be bestowed on a person, it’s something that must be earned over time. Hopefully, in the future, people won’t vote for someone who has never managed so much as a lemonade stand and expect them to be able to manage a government responsible to, and for, over three hundred million people.

Why would a dog lover purposefully shun the WOW Trail rules? To the editor, Laconia and the surrounding communities are fortunate to have access to the WOW Trail for walking, biking, and getting outside to enjoy the beautiful weather and outstanding scenery along the trail. My family and friends are thankful to have this opportunity, and have used and supported it since its inception. We have been biking on the trail at different times lately, and today came across three individuals with dogs that were not on their leashes. There is also a “leash law” in Laconia, and the signs posted on either end of the trail states that pets must be kept on a leash and under control at all times. While these particular dogs seemed very friendly and non-threatening, who knows what the disposition of other dogs using the trail might be. Also, having dogs run toward you as you are biking or walking can be
disconcerting as one is not sure what their intentions may be. I believe the intention of creating the WOW Trail was for the enjoyment of everyone; not just a few who would like to use it as their personal free rein walking area for their dogs. In the moment, one of the owners stated she would come to walk her dog a hour or two earlier just to avoid us and indicated she would continue to not leash her dog. It is hard for me to believe that a dog lover would purposefully shun adhering to the rules that make this a safe environment for themselves and their beloved pets. The WOW Trail is such a positive experience for so many in the community. Let’s all use it in the manner in which it was intended so that everyone can enjoy it. Peggy Powers Laconia

‘Green Grants’ going to schools to make amends for Meredith’s environmental sin By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
MEREDITH — While the mercury topped 90 this week, the town finished paying its penance for improperly disposing of snow by awarding $15,000 in “Green Grants” to support environmental projects at three schools — Sandwich Central School, Campton Elementary School and Laconia High School. During the winter of 2009-2010 a crew inadvertently dumped snow laden with salt and grit into a wetland. Immediately recognizing the mistake, the Department of Public Works promptly removed the snow and restored the wetland. Town officials also informed the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services of the incident, taking full responsibility for it. Nevertheless, DES levied a fine of $30,000 against the town. To defray the fine, the town contributed $5,000 toward furnishing the DES’s facility in Franklin and staged workshops on snow removal for employees of neighboring towns. The “Green Grants,” approximately $5,000 to each school, represented the balance of the fine. At Sandwich Central School fourth, fifth and sixth graders, who under the direction of Justin Chapman, have monitored the water quality of the Cold River in partnership with the Green Mountain Conservation Group for the past six years will expand their program by adding a second trip to the river and collecting data from multiple locations, both upstream and downstream of the Route 113 bridge to assess

the impact of traffic. In addition, Chapman plans to begin sampling the Red Hill River and Creamery Brook, the major streams in the town’s historic district that feed Garland Pond and Lee’s Pond before emptying into Moultonborough Bay. Campton Kids Care, the afterschool program at Campton Elementary School, is developing a “GoGreen Project,” consisting of three components — an onsite garden, an offsite pumpkin patch and a recycling program. The students will till the garden and spread the compost then plant, cultivate and harvest their crops to serve as fodder for a dinner they will plan and host. In collaboration with the Historical Society and Conservation Commission, the pumpkin patch is planned for the Pattere Conservation Property. In the fall, the pumpkins will provide the centerpiece for a Halloween celebration fueled by bread, pies and cookies and lit by carved jack-o-lanterns. The balance of the
Golf cart liability trial in Concord interrupted by settlement CONCORD (AP) — A golf cart manufacturer has settled a case brought by a Vermont man who suffered a traumatic brain injury when he was thrown from a cart at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. After two days of trial in federal court, lawyers for manufacturer Textron and the wife of Roderick
Jenks of Wilder, Vt., agreed to settle “to avoid further litigation and expense.” The accident occurred July 16, 2006. Jenks was among volunteers raising money for charities when the golf cart he was standing on swerved, sending him to the pavement.
LHS from page one porting the entire school project, including the Wellness Academy aspects, which are very important to us’’ said Dr. John Grobman, who has been helping out on the sidelines at Laconia High School football games ever since 1986. LHS football coach Craig Kozens said that OPA made a $10,000 donation and in addition is buying an $11,000 John Deere Gator, which will be used for grooming the new Field Turf artificial surface playing field which will be built as part of the project. Dr. Grobman also personally donated $5,000 for one of the engraved granite steps which will lead from the parking lot up to the new field behind the school. The goal of the capital campaign is to raise $1-million to supplement public funding that will largely be used to expand and renovate the Huot Regional Technical Education Center. The total project cost is $16.8-million. The fund raising drive was kicked off last month with the announcement that the Bank of New Hampshire was making a $250,000 contribution and that the new playing field will be named the “Bank of New Hampshire Stadium.” Kozens said the drive is receiving strong support from the community and that he is grateful to OPA not only for its most recent gift but the support shown over the years by OPA for the city’s athletic programs. ‘’They are one of the reasons that it makes Laco-
nia such a great place to be a coach,’’ said Kozens, who said that Grobman’s involvement with the football team is legendary and that is much like having a team physician at his call. ‘’He’s always watching out for the players and will even offer advice to them during the game like telling them there’s nothing wrong with going out of bounds to avoid a bad hit by telling them we need you next week too’ ‘’ said Kozens. Grobman has pushed for adoption by the state of mandated testing for closed head injuries and has worked with Laconia High School to adopt testing protocols which can identify an athlete is ready to return to the field after injuries. ‘’It gives me a great deal of confidence to have him around during the games,’’ says Kozens. OPA’s gift joins that of the bank and Irwin Marine, which donated $25,000, and several others who have already contributed $5,000. Superintendent Bob Champlin says the campaign is nearing 50-percent of its $1-million goal, and hopes to be able to announce an end to the campaign by the homecoming and alumni celebration on September 28. More modest gifts are also being gratefully accepted. Engraved bricks can be purchased for $125 (4” X 8”) or $250 (8” X 8”) and granite “pavers” (12” X 12”) will be inscribed for a donation of $1,000. checks should be made out to the Laconia School District and mailed to 39 Harvard Street, Laconia, NH, 03246.

grant will be applied to enhancing the recycling program begun last year with appropriate containers and a cement pad for the dumpster. The Green Team at the Laconia School District plans to install three filling stations at the high school where to encourage students to use refillable rather than disposable water bottles. Students of the Huot Technical Center will be helping to install the stations and different student clubs will be selling the refillable bottles. Currently the cafeteria sells some 17,000 bottles of water a year. The goal of the Green Team is to reduce sales by 25-percent in the first year of the program. Ironically, the Sandwich Central School was the only school in the Inter-lakes School District, which is headquartered in Meredith, to submit an application for the grants and none of the money will actually be spent in the offending town.

LETTERS RV owners who rent land can’t be taxed for views & lake access To the editor, Here is a prime example of why it is SO important to file property tax abatement applications when you feel you have been over assessed. About 30 RV owners in Bristol Shores campground located on Newfound Lake in Bristol filed abatement applications disputing what was referred to as a “Park Influence Tax”, which ranged from $27,000 to $60,000 per RV for 180 RV sites and was based on the RV’s proximity to the lake. The closer to the lake the higher the Park Influence Tax. The owners felt this was a DOUBLE TAX because they do not own the land, they rent their sites, and their rent is already based on their proximity to the lake. RV owners with lake views pay higher rent. (In addition, the owner of the campground was already taxed for these RV sites on his property tax bill at $5,700 each for a total of $1,105,800 just for the RV sites he owned and not including the land, building or other features.) It turns out that recent case law agreed that RV owners who rent/lease their land cannot be taxed for anything other than their RV and improvements. So, with some free assistance from abatenewfound@yahoo.com, ALL of the Park Influence Taxes on every RV site in Bristol Shores will be removed for a total assessment reduction of $5,937,000 for an annual savings of about $120,000 in property taxes for the year 2011 and future years. The assessed value reduction is as follows: Zones 1-3 has 127 sites at $27,000 = $3,429,000, Zone 4 has 32 sites at $39,000 = $1,248,000, Zone 5 has 21 sites at $60,000 = $1,260,000. For the 30 Bristol Shores RV owners who filed abatement applications, they should receive refunds of about $540 to $1,200, or it will be applied to any outstanding property
taxes if owed. For the other 150 Bristol Shores RV owners who did not file any abatement application forms this year, they should contact the town assessor and request that you ALL be given refunds for your 2011 property taxes because the N.H. Department of Revenue determined that it is unlawful to charge you for a leasehold interest. While the assessor will remove all Park Influence Taxes for everyone in Bristol Shores for 2012, since they made an error that could not be disputed as disproportionate or above market value which are the two reasons listed on the abatement application as the only acceptable bases for disputing one’s property tax bill, it seems that they made an error in adding this Park Influence Tax to all 180 units and therefore they should correct their mistake and refund everyone for 2011 as well. It just doesn’t seem fair that the 150 RV owners who did not file abatement applications for 2011 will have overpaid taxes of about $100,000 for a mistake made by the assessor during the revaluation. These RVs were initially sold as “affordable lakeside living” with just a bill of sale and motor vehicle title, and buyers were reportedly told they would only be taxed on the value of their RVs, so it was a tremendous shock when they received tax bills that tacked on these Park Influence Taxes which, in many cases, were more than the value of their RV and were told these RVs were now considered real estate. So, if you live in the Newfound area and need free assistance with property tax abatement applications, please e-mail abatenewfound@yahoo. com and we can talk you through the process.

Why is it no one can find records of Obama’s college attendance? To the editor, Nancy Parsons July 13 letter, attempting to “correct” a totally correct letter from Steve Earle, only shows her ignorance of the real facts. We all know that Obama has a black father in Kenya, and a white mother from the USA, but EVERYONE, including especially Obama, calls him black! If you would bother to READ Obama’s interesting books, you would know that he hates his mother. It seems that appearance is more important that heritage. I, and thousands of others, have authentic copies of the official birth certificate of Obama in the British territory of Kenya. It took Obama’s team of hundreds of lawyers to finally offer an obviously FAKE birth certificate, pretending he was born in a hospital in Hawaii which didn’t exist then, with an impossible sequence number. But, Donald Trump decided to accept that fraud, to avoid the attacks Obama’s lawyer gang had ready. As expected, all the other cowards fell in line. As for passports, it is well proven that Obama traveled to Indonesia, as
a child, with Kenya passport, and later went various places with different passports, NEVER a USA passport. He has claimed to get degrees from several colleges, but there is NO record of any of those. I attended Oklahoma University, Rutgers College, and University of Southern Calif (USC). Anyone can check their records to prove that. Why can’t anyone find the so called records of colleges Obama CLAIMS to have attended? Nor can they find any records of contact with those who would have been classmates? BUT, the most revealing is that Obama has NONE of the knowledge or skills we expect from someone with his claimed education! He has a Social Security number that came from a guy from Ohio who died in Hawaii, obviously a false one for him to have. But, he can’t get a legitimate one without a valid birth certificate! Both he and his wife have revoked lawyer licenses. So Nancy, check you facts before the next letter you write. Try to do as well as Steve Earle does! Jack Stephenson Gilford

VACATION from page one lot of hair — three heads of hair,” she said, remembering how hard it was to see herself go bald. But everyone around her insisted that she was just as beautiful. “Then I started to work through it,” she said. After several months of physical and emotional struggle, and with other treatments on the schedule, a week on Winnipesaukee was just the kind of therapy Angelica and her support group needed. “She really enjoyed her stay,” reported Shalimar, Angelica’s mother. “She was in the water every single day.” While the family’s stay was serene, just a couple of weeks earlier, organizers were scrambling to put everything together. Angelica’s lakeside vacation was originally planned for later in the summer but a late-scheduled procedure to address her lymphoma meant that if Angelica was to have a family vacation this summer, it needed to be sooner. Fortunately, Cronin was able to call on a network of friends to help pull together a dream vacation in short time. Key among her contacts was Donna Hosmer of Laconia, who sent out a mass e-mail which triggered an avalanche of support. As Cronin noted, Angelica’s wish was something most Lakes Region residents value dearly, time spent relaxing with family in a beautiful setting. “We loved the simplicity of them just wanting to spend time together.” Apparently, that desire struck a chord with many others. Examples of generosity included a woman who offered to pay for a meal at Donna Jean’s, her favorite diner. Another purchased gift certificates to Han-
naford supermarket, The Wine’ing Butcher and The Gilford Cinema. Many businesses also responded. T-Bones, Lyons’ Den, Hart’s Turkey Farm and Camp Restaurant offered meals. The EKAL Activity Center offered free rental of kayaks. The M/S Mount Washington provided a cruise of a lake. Other activities included karting and tie-dyeing at Weirs Beach Go Karts, miniature golf at Pirate’s Cove, bumper boats at Daytona Fun Park, Monkey Trunks aerial adventure, Funspot arcade games and ice cream at Kellerhaus. The family was enamored of the lakeside home, acquired by Make-A-Wish at a discounted rate through Preferred Vacation Rentals. “It was amazing. We enjoyed the house so, so much,” said Shalimar. The private beach was the family’s favoite amenity. “I got a sun tan for the first time in years.” She added, “We want to thank everybody for all the support. It felt so welcoming.” In the end, there was so much offered that gifts from Gunstock Adventure Park, Castle in the Clouds and others will have to wait for another Make-AWish beneficiary. For Cronin, the experience underscored the power of generosity, especially when many different parties give what they can for a common goal. “We exist solely because of the generosity of the people in the state of New Hampshire who recognize that no matter how big or small a part we can each play individually, collectively we have the power to make a huge difference for these kids and their families facing such uncertainty,” she said. While Angelica’s wish was success-

McKenna was diagnosed with leukemia in April 2010, just before she turned two. Chemotherapy treatments affected her speech and immune system, and she had three
extended stays in the hospital. She also broke her leg in a fall. Doctors told the family that it would be better to wait to go to Disney until McKenna was done with treatment, Helppie said. “She’s been through quite a bit,” Helppie said. “We have had quite the journey getting her back to being like every other 4-year-old.” McKenna’s mother, Whitney Hughes, said she’s overwhelmed that so many people have reached out to help. The family expects that they’ll soon have enough money to go to Disney. It’s something McKenna has talked about for months, her mom said. “She wants to go see Mickey and the princesses,” Hughes said.

Laconia police report information volunteered by ‘bedtime burglars’ allowed them to close 26 cases By Gail OBer
THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — Police said they have closed a total of 26 burglaries stemming from the burglary spree last summer that ended with the arrests of two local men who came to be referred to as the “bedtime burglars”. Captain William Clary said that Joshua Shepard, 31 and Spencer Mullarkey, 32, both agreed to tell police what homes they burglarized as part of the plea bargain agreements with the Belknap County Attorney. Clary said the pair also identified five homes in Sanbornton and 10 each in Belmont and Gilford that they burglarized. Last month, Mullarkey had agreed to plead guilty to 11 counts of burglary and once count of conspiracy to commit burglary in exchange for 7 1/2 to 15 years in N.H. State Prison. Judge James O’Neill rejected the plea as too lenient and he is scheduled for trial later this year. In March, Shepard pleaded guilty to two counts of burglary, four counts of attempted burglary and one count of sales of a narcotic and was sentenced by Judge James Barry to serve seven to 14 years in prison with the possibility of suspending two years off the minimum if he completed a drug and alcohol program. When asked, Clary told the Police Commission yesterday that it was primarily cash that was taken
in the burglaries and the chances of recovery were close to zero. The two were stopped when Patrol Officer Brandi Ennis stopped Shepard, who she saw and knew had an outstanding arrest warrant, and noticed what appeared to be burglary tools in his car. In other police news, Clary told commissioners that a radio station had approached the department about renting space on their tower on Parade Road. He said the unnamed station determined it own tower was inadequate and has tentatively offered to build a new tower, turn it over to the city, and work out some kind of lease of space. Clary declined to name the station saying only that it operated on a FM frequency and it’s antenna had to be 50 feet about the Laconia Police Departments whip-type antenna. Captain Mathew Canfield also wanted to warn citizens about some frauds being committed in the area that target primarily elderly people who have been told they have won the Publishers Clearing House grand prize. He said in the most recent case, a 95-year-old man went to a local bank to take out $50,000 for what he told the teller was to pay the fees on a multi-million dollar prize. Canfield said bank personnel were able to convince the man to speak to the police. He said the department is working the U.S. Secret Service regarding these frauds.

Dartmouth-Hitchcock to pay $550k to U.S. health programs MONTPELIER, Vt. (AP) — New Hampshire’s Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center has agreed to pay more than $550,000 to settle allegations that it improperly billed various federal health programs, the Vermont office of the United States attorney said Thursday. Federal health programs such as Medicare and Medicaid recovered over $500,000. More than $21,000 will go to the state of Vermont and more than $8,000 to New Hampshire. The government’s investigation arose in 2009 following the Lebanon, N.H., hospital’s disclosure of improper billing practices by one physician in its neurology department. At that time, the hospital was investigating another billing case brought on by a whistleblower physician. That case was settled for $2.2 million last year. S!

The latest investigation showed improper billing practices from 2004 through 2008. Dartmouth Hitchcock denied any liability and said it welcomed the opportunity to improve is billing practices. “At Dartmouth-Hitchcock, we take our billing practices very seriously and are determined to meet the highest standards of compliance and excellence in all aspects of our operations, which is why we fully cooperated with the audit and investigation into the billing irregularities self-reported to, and identified by, the Department of Health and Human Services in 2009,” the hospital said in a statement. “We believe that these mistakes were made by excellent physicians in an increasingly complex billing and coding environment,” the hospital said.

Belmont police officer said kicked while trying to take drunk man into custody
BELMONT — A local man was ordered held on $250 cash and $2,000 personal recognizance bail after allegedly kicking a police officer who was called to his home. Police said Wayne Gebo, 42, of 94 Gilmanton Road was intoxicated and troublesome last Sunday night so his mother called Belmont Police. Crp. Adam Hawkins responded but when he went to place Gebo into protective custody, Gebo allegedly kicked him the chest. Gebo also allegedly tried to throw a few punches. Hawkins was uninjured and able to get Gebo into handcuffs and into the cruiser. Gebo faces one count of simple assault on a police officer. Should he post bail he is ordered to report to the Belmont Police daily and not drink any alcohol. — Gail Ober Donald Carlson on Thursday stands in the yard of his home on the portion of Darby Drive in Briarcrest Estates that lies in Belmont. Carlson awoke early Wednesday morning to find the building on fire, probably caused by a bolt of lightning. (Laconia Daily Sun photo/Gail Ober.)
FIRE from page one 5:30 a.m. Wednesday morning, he used the bathroom in the center of his home as opposed to one he usually uses. He said the sun was just rising and while he initially didn’t smell any smoke, he noticed a kind of “blueish haze” in the hallway. He said he looked in computer room and saw nothing, but when he looked in the back bedroom, he saw the smoke and said the flames were just beginning to burn through a wall. He said he woke his wife, told her they had a fire and called the Fire Department. The two were able to gather their two cats, pocketbooks and wallets and safely leave the building. Donald Carlson, a retired state trooper and current locksmith, said the two were eating at the Shang Hai Restaurant in Laconia during the fierce but fast-moving storm that tore through the southern part of the Lakes Region Tuesday night. His wife actually got a fortune cookie that read “something happy is happening at your home.” She said yesterday she’ll probably frame it. He said when he returned home one of his neighbors told him there was a lightening strike nearby but that he wasn’t sure it if hit the Carlson’s home or not. He said some of his home had electricity and some didn’t and that some of his electronics worked and some didn’t. He said he had planned on calling an electrician the first thing in the morning. Belmont Fire Chief Dave Parenti said “lightening seeks ground” and that it will follow the path of least resistance until it reaches it. He said he can’t
be sure the lightening actually stuck the house or not but said in Briarcrest the house-to-house electrical wiring is all underground. He said that even if it struck a tree it would follow the tree into the ground and could travel through water or sewer pipes until it reaches it its ground, potentially in someone’s home. In this case, he said lightening likely arced in one of the walls. “Just enough that it started smoldering,” he said. He explained the walls are reasonable devoid of air but, in this case, the fire smoldered, rising as fire always does until it reached the attic where there is plenty of air or fuel for it to begin spreading rapidly. With air to feed it, fire doubles in size every minute it burns unchecked. When the first firefighters arrived, Parenti said the fire had already broken through the roof. Parenti said that in the wake of a lightening strike on or near a home, he recommends the homeowners call the fire department, especially if there is an odor of electricity, if some of the house is without power or there are visible signs of a lightening strike. “We have tools that we can look into walls and detect heat,” he said. “It’s what we do and we’d always rather know sooner than later.” The Carlson’s wanted the thank the Belmont and Laconia firefighters who got to their home within minutes. “They were absolutely wonderful,” said Kathleen Carlson. The couple also wanted to thank their friends and neighbors in Briarcrest for their kindness and generosity.

HEPATITIS from page one actions, people in our community, who in many cases are the friends and neighbors of the 2,300 people who work here, now face the challenge of a potentially chronic disease,” hospital president Kevin Callahan said. The hospital declined to comment further about Kwiatkowski, citing the ongoing investigation. Hepatitis C is a blood-borne viral infection that can cause liver disease and chronic health issues. Altogether, 31 people, including Kwiatkowski, have tested positive for the same strain of the disease since the investigation began in late May, including an 89-year-old woman who was treated for a heart valve problem in February. The woman lives with her niece, who also got tested for hepatitis C because she was exposed to the woman’s blood while helping her after she suffered a deep cut on her leg in April. The niece’s test was negative, but she will get tested again in six months, she said Thursday. The niece, who asked not to be publicly identified because of the stigma associated with the disease and because she wants to protect her aunt from the media, said she hopes the criminal charges will deter others from similar schemes. She said she was happy to hear that Kwiatkowski had been arrested. She said the ordeal has turned her family’s life upside down. “We should be able to go into a hospital, put our lives in their hands and know that we’re going to be OK,” she said.

It’s so nice to see it back here,’’ said Janet Brown, whose aunt worked for 50 years as a housekeeper for Benz, and recalls that Benz rarely drove the car except when she brought it to her Fellows Hill Road farm in the spring and drove it back to Lynn, Mass., in the late fall. She said that the car still looks like it did 28 years ago, when she last saw it, and said it looked like it see next page hospitals where she worked and replacing them with used syringes. The syringes were later used on surgical patients, and up to three dozen patients were found to have hepatitis C after being exposed. Kacavas said New Hampshire is working with the CDC, law enforcement and departments of public health in other states where Kwiatkowski worked. “I’m unaware of such a scheme with such reach,” he said. “This one has the potential for very farreaching implications.”

Another Ross homer keys Red Sox win BOSTON (AP) — Cody Ross’ fiveyear old son stood behind him as he sat at a podium during a postgame interview session, triggering him to recall when he first started to enjoy hitting in the clutch. “I’ve always wanted to be up in those situations since I was like my son’s age,” Ross said of his three-run homer in the ninth that lifted the Boston Red Sox to a 3-1 win over the Chicago White Sox on Thursday night. “It’s a great feeling, especially when you’re the hero.” Ross’ dramatic shot came one night after he hit three-run homers in consecutive innings of a 10-1 win. Before the game, he was jokingly asked if there’d be a repeat performance. “I thought it was kind of a dumb question, but I guess it wasn’t,” he said, smiling, with his blond-haired

son, Hudson, just off to his left. Boston took three of four games in the series and is 5-2 since the All Star break. It was the fifth loss in 13 games for AL Central-leading Chicago, which opens three-game series at secondplace Detroit on Friday night. Boston’s Clay Buchholz had a solid start, allowing one run, six hits, striking out six and walking one in eight innings. But he was set to be the loser until Ross’ blast. When Ross reached home plate, he was met by Nick Punto, who tore his jersey. “He was famous for that in St. Louis (last postseason),” Ross said. “I met the shredder.” While Buchholz had his own little celebration. “I was running around the clubhouse,” he said.

Rebels kill 21 Syrian guards at border post BAGHDAD (AP) — Rebels attacked Syrian forces Thursday on two spots along the nation’s porous border with Iraq, killing 21 soldiers and seizing control of one of the four major border posts, a senior Iraqi army official said. The assaults against Syria’s government unfolded throughout the day, putting the Iraqi army on high alert to prevent any violence from spilling across the border. “We have security concerns because the border crossing now is out of the Syria government’s control, and nobody can anticipate what will happen,” said Iraqi Army Brig. General Qassim al-Dulaimi. Al-Duliami said about a half-dozen rebels stormed the Syrian border
crossing near the Iraqi town of Qaim on Thursday morning. He said the rebels forced the border guards from their posts but did not cross into Iraq. Qaim is located about 320 kilometers (200 miles) west of Baghdad. Mohammed Fathi, spokesman for the governor of Iraq’s western Anbar province that includes Qaim, said the border crossing had already been closed to traffic because of the civil war. Hours later, in the remote Sinjar mountain range, al-Dulaimi said rebels attacked a Syrian army outpost near the Iraqi border, killed 20 soldiers and their commander. The rebels then seized control of the outpost, al-Duliami said.
SYRIA from page 2 mandate expires Friday. Carney says the United States does not support extending the mission “without the necessary backup.” “The United States does not support extending a mission where you send unarmed U.N. employees into
Syria to try to observe the brutality of the Assad regime when there is no mechanism within the resolution to create consequences for the regime for failing to live up to its obligations, its commitments under the Annan plan,” Carney said.

Workshop in Moultonborough on livable communities
MOULTONBOROUGH — On Saturday, July 21, at the same time that the Plan NH Community Charrette is underway in Moultonborough, Plan NH’s executive director Robin LeBlanc will hold an interactive community workshop from 9-11 a.m. at Moultonborough Academy. This will introduce attendees to different ways of thinking about the community and participants will learn about basic livability concepts and what they could mean for a vibrant, healthy Moultonborough in the years to come. Among the concepts to be examined will be what does it mean to be a walkable, livable community? What do we need to think about in creating that
vision, and how can it be implemented? What can you do to be a part of creating that future? Moultonborough’s Master Plan (2008) and Safe Routes to Schools Travel Plan (2010) both recommend increasing pedestrian and bicycle routes in the village area, in order to create linkages and safe connectivity between the school and municipal compounds. All community members are invited to attend the Our Moultonborough Workshop from 9 to 11 a.m. and the final Community Presentation at 2:30 p.m. when Plan NH will present conceptual plans and recommendations. All Saturday events will be held at Moultonborough Academy.
Book signings by 2 authors Saturday at Bayswater CENTER HARBOR — Local seafaring author Jim Salmon and Award-winning author Julia Older will be signing books at Bayswater Books on Saturday, July 21, from 11a.m. - 1 p.m.2012 Jim Salmon, Conway resident, did much more than think “I wish I could just get away from it all” in 2000 when he left his job as an insurance underwriter to fulfill a lifelong dream. Following in the footsteps of his seafaring ancestors, who commanded Navy ships during the Revolutionary and Civil wars, as well as the whaleship Essex (the inspiration for Herman Melville’s Moby Dick), Salmon embarked on a nineteen-month circumnavigation of the globe aboard the tall ship Picton Castle.
He recounts his adventures in exotic places and his life with an eccentric crew in his new book, Rime of the Ancient Underwriter: How I Stowed the Day Job and Went to Sea. Overseas is a vase with a tale to tell, Julia Older’s obsession with the famous François Vase led to both a radio play and this book-length poem, a dramatic 25-century journey of the vase winds through a subterranean inferno of greed, passion, and terror. Twice it was smashed into 600-plus pieces, came unglued and was puzzled together, each time with a piece missing. “Before printed books there were talking vases...it’s now Julia’s singing vase...” —Andrei Codrescu about Tales of the François Vase: A Poem

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Friday, July 20, 2012— Page 17
Winnipesaukee Playhouse presents ‘The Mousetrap,’ world’s longest running play
LACONIA — As Queen Elizabeth celebrates her Jubilee this year, another British institution has a Diamond Jubilee of its own. Already the longest running play in the Western world, Agatha Christie’s The Mousetrap also celebrated its 60th anniversary, having been entertaining audiences in London’s West End since 1952. The play, which originally starred Lord Richard Attenborough and his actress wife, Sheila Sim, will be the third production of The Winnipesaukee Playhouse’s summer season. Mysterious twists and turns abound when a group of strangers are stranded in a snowstorm at a guest house run by newlyweds Giles and Mollie Ralston (Nicholas Kochanov and Rebecca K. Turner) They soon discover that a murderer may be in their midst. With a hotel full of curious characters, “whodunit” could be anyone’s guess. Perhaps it’s the spinster with the curious background, the retired army Major or the strange man running from his past? The arrival of a young detective puts all the suspects on edge as they defend themselves against accusations and intrigues. The identity of the killer in the play is a closely guarded secret and, famously, audiences for The Mousetrap must take a pledge not to reveal the astonishing conclusion. Agatha Christie left the rights to The Mousetrap to her grandson, Matthew Pritchard, and permission to perform the play outside of the West End has been seldom granted over the last 60 years. In honor of the anniversary, however, 60 productions were licensed throughout the world and The Winnipesaukee Playhouse is delighted to be one of the theatre companies granted permission. The production’s director, Englishman Neil Pankhurst says, “the English mystery is a genre which has been readily accepted and embraced by the American public. Just look at the popularity of shows like Inspector Lewis, Poirot or Miss Marple on Masterpiece Mystery on PBS. Unlike the rough and tough crime drama produced by many American networks, the Christie genre proves that clever
dialogue, an intriguing plot, and the right amount of light and shadows can be just as mysterious as the most gruesome crimes seen on network television. What The Mousetrap allows audiences to do is to get involved with each of the individual characters, figuring out their back story and trying to sort out how a group of supposed strangers can all somehow or other be connected to a crime which brings them all together at exactly the right time and place.” The production features Englishman Alex M. Jacobs as Detective Sergeant Trotter Agatha Christie’s The Mousetrap will be performed through July 28 at The Winnipesaukee Playhouse. who must tease these (Courtesy photo) back stories out of the various suspects including Mr. Paravacini (John $22 for seniors/students.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Annie: I’ve been seeing “Bud” for a year. He lives in a trailer park and has a 23-year-old daughter who is on Bud’s checking account and charge cards. This girl insists that her mother (Bud’s ex-wife) spend weekends at the trailer, so Bud spends those weekends at my house. He will not tell his daughter no. This has put some stress on our relationship. His daughter often buys things for her mother, and Bud pays the bills. I find this a little strange. Bud doesn’t understand my objections. He has no interest in saving for our future together. My friends say that Bud is using me because I have a nice house. If I were to marry him, I would make him sign a prenup, because otherwise he would give away everything I have. Am I being naive about our relationship? -- Can’t Take It Anymore Dear Can’t Take It: You’re not naive. You understand what’s going on. But you don’t seem to accept your limitations when it comes to changing the situation. A pre-nup won’t solve your problem. Bud is going to continue to pay for his daughter’s bills. He will continue to acquiesce to her requests, including having her mother stay at his place. And you will continue to be miserable playing second fiddle to his daughter. Your decision is how best to respond to this. Dear Annie: My husband is one of five sons. His parents recently passed away, and he is the executor of the estate and is in the process of selling their home. He got several estimates and selected the Realtor he felt would do the best job. One brother tried to get my husband to pick a friend, but my husband was not impressed with her. Another has been really nasty, telling my husband he should try harder to get more money from the sale. My husband’s niece would like to buy the house. She made a reasonable offer, and my husband was happy to keep the
house in the family. He called a family meeting, but only two brothers showed up, one of whom was the niece’s father. He said my husband should get the house appraised in case it was worth more money. When my husband pointed out that the niece might not be able to afford the house if it’s priced any higher, her father said this is a business deal and to get as much money as possible. This is upsetting my husband, who would love to sell to his niece. The two brothers already have stopped speaking to him, and before this is all over, the family may fall apart completely. What is your take? -- All in the Family Dear Family: When parents die, there is often fallout between siblings over money. But many times the real issue is the perception that one sibling was loved more than another. We suspect your husband was named executor because his parents thought he was the best choice to handle such things, which may also be the reason why he is getting so much resistance from his brothers. If the niece is offering a fair price for the house and your husband wants to sell to her, he should do so. Dear Annie: “Sterling, Mass.” said, “Type 1 diabetes is an epidemic, and people with the disease aren’t going to wait to eat.” She should have said “Type 2.” The CDC predicts that one out of every three people will have Type 2 diabetes by 2050. This form of diabetes is caused from a mixture of things, including heredity, eating and exercise habits. People with Type 2 diabetes may or may not use insulin. Fast-acting insulins can begin to work in 10 to 15 minutes, so the person needs to start eating fairly soon after injecting. Others might be able to inject the insulin up to 30 minutes before the meal. -- Advanced Diabetes Nurse Specialist/Educator, Transcultural Nurse Specialist

Get Fuzzy
By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Misery might love company, but it secretly loves a little optimism and hope even more. When you’re commiserating with friends, remember to accentuate the positive and keep negatives in perspective. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The hardest lessons often happen when we don’t even realize we’re in a classroom. But learning happens everywhere, so remember to pay attention, and don’t be afraid to ask the difficult questions. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Dark clouds are hovering, but like any summer storm, they will pass quickly. Just make sure your windows are closed when the rain hits, and remember to ride things out calmly. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ve been flying high, and the skies are still clear and sunny. But don’t forget to acknowledge and thank the co-pilots and navigators that have been keeping you on course. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Many have been telling you lately to stop daydreaming and get things done. Just remember that all action begins in thought. Embrace your inspiration, and move forward when you’re ready. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 20). It’s like you can’t stop your good fortune. You’ll receive when all you’re trying to do is give. A practical approach to life will serve you well in the next three weeks, but by mid-August, you’ll be ready to stretch your imagination into interesting places, embellish on reality and enjoy a bit of fantasy. Invest in your business in September. Virgo and Leo people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 30, 1, 44, 39 and 16.
by Chad Carpenter
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Team up. If you have a shared goal, you’ll achieve it together. If you don’t, the onus will be entirely on you to come up with a sense of purpose and the motivation to move forward. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Situations that are different from what you expect and are used to will bring out the best in you. Since you won’t have a reference for interpreting external cues, you’ll be forced to pull from an inner wisdom. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). A Jewish proverb says: “I felt sorry for myself because I had no shoes, until I met a man who had no feet.” The less fortunate will have a way of startling you into gratitude. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your prejudices and judgments are only trying to protect you from danger. Instead of condemning yourself for what comes automatically to mind, examine it and determine whether it serves you or should be lovingly let go. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ve been feeling like an unwanted guest in your own life lately, but that’s about to change. Remember that home is closer than you know, and sometimes it’s disguised as something unexpected. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Some people only believe in fate when it’s to their advantage; when things go wrong, they invoke randomness instead. But everything is connected. Think carefully about your decisions and how they affect others. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Things might be tense at work or in school. Be sure to defuse any potential time bombs with a bit of patience, empathy and communication, before things blow up and out of proportion.

Page 22 — THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Friday, July 20, 2012
––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Friday, July 20, the 202nd day of 2012. There are 164 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On July 20, 1969, astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin became the first men to walk on the moon after reaching the surface in their Apollo 11 lunar module. On this date: In 1861, the Congress of the Confederate States convened in Richmond, Va. In 1917, the draft lottery in World War I went into operation. In 1942, the first detachment of the Women’s Army Auxiliary Corps — later known as WACs — began basic training at Fort Des Moines, Iowa. The Legion of Merit was established by an Act of Congress. In 1944, an attempt by a group of German officials to assassinate Adolf Hitler with a bomb failed as the explosion at Hitler’s Rastenburg headquarters only wounded the Nazi leader. President Franklin D. Roosevelt was nominated for an unprecedented fourth term of office at the Democratic convention in Chicago. In 1951, Jordan’s King Abdullah I was assassinated in Jerusalem by a Palestinian gunman who was shot dead on the spot by security. In 1954, the Geneva Accords divided Vietnam into northern and southern entities. In 1960, a pair of Polaris missiles were fired from the submerged USS George Washington off Cape Canaveral, Fla., at a target more than 1,100 miles away. In 1976, America’s Viking 1 robot spacecraft made a successful, first-ever landing on Mars. In 1982, Irish Republican Army bombs exploded in two London parks, killing eight British soldiers, along with seven horses belonging to the Queen’s Household Cavalry. In 1988, Massachusetts Gov. Michael S. Dukakis received the Democratic presidential nomination at the party’s convention in Atlanta. In 1990, Supreme Court Justice William J. Brennan, one of the court’s most liberal voices, announced he was stepping down. One year ago: The last fugitive sought by the U.N.’s Balkan war crimes tribunal, Gordan Hadzic, former leader of Croatia’s ethnic Serbs, was seized in a remote mountain forest in northern Serbia. Today’s Birthdays: Actress-singer Sally Ann Howes is 82. Rockabilly singer Sleepy LaBeef is 77. Senator Barbara A. Mikulski, D-Md., is 76. Actress Diana Rigg is 74. Rock musician John Lodge (The Moody Blues) is 69. Country singer T.G. Sheppard is 68. Singer Kim Carnes is 67. Rock musician Carlos Santana is 65. Rock musician Paul Cook is 56. Actress Donna Dixon is 55. Rock musician Mick McNeil (Simple Minds) is 54. Country singer Radney Foster is 53. Actor Frank Whaley is 49. Rock singer Chris Cornell is 48. Rock musician Stone Gossard (Pearl Jam) is 46. Actor Reed Diamond is 45. Actor Josh Holloway is 43. Singer Vitamin C is 43. Actor Omar Epps is 39. Actor Simon Rex is 38. Actress Judy Greer is 37. Actor Charlie Korsmo is 34. Singer Elliott Yamin is 34. Supermodel Gisele Bundchen is 32. Rock musician Mike Kennerty is 32. Actor Percy Daggs III is 30. Actor John Francis Daley is 27. Country singer-ballroom dancer Julianne Hough is 24. Actress Billi Bruno is 16.
