LACONIA — A team of consultants and architects have recommended that the portion of the former Laconia State School property where most of the buildings are located be redeveloped as a continuing care

and has led the city’s effort to acquire it, said yesterday that no one has yet suggested developing a retirement community on the site and doubted that it would represent the highest and best use of the property.

Released this week, the report was prepared by the “Better

Future Alliance,” consisting of Roger Hawk of Hawk Planning Resources, LLC of Concord, Stuart Arnett of the Arnett Development Group, William Flynn of Saucier+Flynn Ltd. and Christopher Kennedy and M. Hunter Ulf of UK Architects. see STATE SCHOOL page 11

Irwin Marine steps up with $25k donation to LHS fund drive Large & small contributions alike sought to help pay for new all-weather athletic field & science labs

BY ADAM DRAPCHO THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA — When Jack Irwin was a member of Laconia High School’s football team, he did a little of everything. He ran the ball, played defense, punted and returned kicks. Though he graduated in 1950 — and went on to play as many positions at Boston College — he has contin-

ued to further the Sachem cause, often by coaching punters in the old-school “rocker step” technique.

This summer, Irwin and Irwin Marine found yet another way to support the school’s athletic programs, by donating $25,000 to the School District’s campaign to raise $1-million from non-public sources over the next few months. The money will

Entire San Diego fireworks display went off with single big bang

SAN DIEGO (AP) — The San Diego Trolley was packed. Hotel rooms facing the bay were sold out. And local radio was set to simulcast a patriotic score for the Fourth of July show.

But instead of 20 minutes of fireworks, the crowd in San Diego got about 20 seconds of giant, deafening booms after a computer mishap sent multiple bulb-shaped explosions over the bay.

The show’s producer blamed a “technical glitch” Thursday, saying an error in its computer system caused tens of thousands of fireworks on four barges to go off simultaneously with a single command.

“It was like a giant, serious bomb went off,” said Mike Newton, 29, a photographer who watched from a friend’s 28th-floor apartment.

“That’s what it looked like and felt like. It hit you right in the chest.”

There were no reported injuries and Garden State Fireworks, based in Millington, N.J., apologized and see BANG page 3

Zimmerman’s bail now set at whopping $1-million ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Using words like “false testimony” and “misled,” a judge granted $1 million bail Thursday for neighborhood watch volunteer George Zimmerman, but questioned his honesty and suggested he had plotted to leave the country when he was out of jail the first time.

Circuit Judge Kenneth Lester referred to Zimmerman with words like “conceal” and “flee” more than a dozen times in an eight-page order that lets him out of jail while he awaits his second-degree murder

trial in the shooting of Trayvon Martin.

The judge’s doubts could hurt a Zimmerman attempt to dismiss the case by claiming he shot Martin in self-defense, a possible motion based on Florida’s “stand your ground” law, experts said.

“Mr. Zimmerman is not held in any high esteem by this court,” said Karin Moore, a law professor at Florida A&M University College of Law. “I think that could matter if there is a ‘stand your ground’ hearing ... It’s a matter of credibility. There is no one else to

testify to support the self-defense claim.”

Lester had revoked Zimmerman’s $150,000 bond last month after prosecutors said Zimmerman and his wife misled the court about how much money they had during an April bond hearing and failed to disclose he had a second passport after turning in one passport to the court.

“Under any definition, the defendant has flaunted the system,” Lester said.

“Although there is no record of flight to see ZIMMERMAN page 8

WOLFEBORO (AP) — Mitt Romney’s wife has confirmed a tidbit about the vice presidential search process her husband largely has been keeping secret: He’s considering choosing a woman.

“We’ve been looking at that, and I love that option as well,” Ann Romney told CBS News in a joint interview with her husband that was broadcast Thursday. She added: “There’s a lot of people that Mitt is

considering right now.”

The disclosure came as the Republican presidential candidate, vacationing with his family at their lakeside estate in Wolfeboro, faced mounting criticism from inside the party about the state of his campaign.

Officially, the campaign says Romney is doing what he’s done for the past decade — enjoying family time during a weeklong holiday in New Hampshire. It’s also a break

from the campaign trail and a chance to relax before the pre-convention push. But unofficially, the bit of down time is a chance for the contemplative Romney to consider who to tap for the No. 2 slot, how the campaign is going and whether to adjust strategy in a contest that polls show is close.

Romney declined in the interview to describe the status of the vice presidential see ROMNEY page

Hundreds of thousands of infected computers may lose Internet of Monday WASHINGTON (AP) — Despite repeated alerts, tens of thousands of Americans may still lose their Internet service Monday unless they do a quick check of their computers for malware that could have taken over their machines more than a year ago.

The warnings about the Internet problem have been splashed across Facebook and

Google. Internet service providers have sent notices, and the FBI set up a special website.

According to the FBI, the number of computers that probably are infected is more than 277,000 worldwide, down from about 360,000 in April. About 64,000 stillinfected computers are probably in the United States.

Police say injured motorcyclist was doing 143 on I-93 SANBORTON (AP) — A motorcyclist who passed a state trooper doing 143 mph was seriously injured when he crashed into a car minutes later.

Police say 47-year-old Thomas W. Van Uden of Goffstown has been hospitalized following the accident on I-93 in Sanborton at 4:30 p.m. Wednesday.

His passenger, a 43-year-old Manchester woman,

also is being treated at a hospital for serious injuries. The driver of the car was not hurt.

A state trooper measured the motorcycle’s speed on radar before it sped out of sight. The collision totaled the motorcycle; the car sustained rear-end damage.

Police say Van Uden will face charges for the accident.

Hampton bridge operator dies after being hit by car HAMPTON, N.H. (AP) — New Hampshire Department of Transportation officials say a bridge operator has died of injuries suffered after being hit by a car.

The officials say two bridge operators working at the Hampton River Bridge had completed a bridge lift for a fishing boat at about 10 p.m. Friday and left

to go home when one of them was hit by a car while crossing Route 1A. WMUR-TV ) says 67-year-old Jim Hayes died Tuesday at a hospital.

Hampton police are investigating.

Former Somersworth man arrested for robbing hometown bank

SOMERSWORTH, N.H. (AP) — Police say a man accused of robbing a bank in the New Hampshire of Somersworth has been arrested after a brief struggle.

Police got an anonymous tip that James Whinnem was spotted in Dover on Wednesday afternoon.

When police questioned him, they say he gave a false name and ran way. Police say Whinnem, who used to live in Somersworth but has no current address, was

arrested after a brief struggle.

He’s accused of robbing the Citizens Bank in Somersworth on Tuesday afternoon. The Portsmouth Herald reports that he’s also charged with resisting arrest, providing a false name to police, and criminal mischief for damaging a vehicle during the struggle as well as previous charges of theft by unauthorized taking.

VIRUS from page 2 He said his organization, together with Public Safety Canada and the Canadian Radio-television Telecommunications Commission, has developed an online site where computer users can check their computers for the malware.

People whose computers are still infected Monday will lose their ability to go online, and they will have to call their service providers for help deleting the malware and reconnecting to the Internet.

The problem began when international hackers ran

an online advertising scam to take control of more than 570,000 infected computers around the world.

When the FBI went in to take down the hackers late last year, agents realized that if they turned off the malicious servers being used to control the computers, all the victims would lose their Internet service.

In a highly unusual move, the FBI set up a safety net. They brought in a private company to install two clean Internet servers to take over for the malicious servers so that people would not suddenly lose their Internet.

BANG from page 2 vowed to determine precisely what went wrong. The 122-year-old company produced hundreds of other shows across the country Wednesday night.

August Santore, part-owner of Garden State Fireworks, said the company felt terrible, but the mood was unforgiving among many of the hundreds of thousands of people who witnessed the explosions before they could get off their first “ooh” or “ah.”

A patriotic score was set to be simulcast on a local radio station. The show was set to stream live on the Web. The crowd stood in quiet disbelief, with many wondering what just happened to a show billed as the Big Bay Boom. Word went out on the radio about 20 minutes later that it was over.

Bre Nelson, a 26-year-old wedding planner, watched from a hillside street packed with “tons and tons of people and cars.”

“It was really neat to see the entire sky light up but then we just waited there,” said Nelson. “Everyone was just sitting around.”

By late Thursday afternoon, the fireworks flop had become a hit online with about 2 million views of the footage on YouTube.

Sponsors contributed about $380,000 to host the show, said Sandy Purdon, owner of a bay marina and the chief organizer. The Port of San Diego contributed $145,000 as title sponsor, with hotels and restaurants giving much of the rest.

The port district gave an additional $50,000 worth of services, including traffic control, portable toilets and cleanup.

The fireworks cost $125,000 and the barges and tugs cost $45,000, Purdon said. After permits, publicity, buses and other costs, there was about $50,000 left, which was earmarked to help young military families though the San Diego Armed Services YMCA. The port district said in a statement that it was “very disappointed” in what it described as an apparent technical error.

It was unclear if anyone will get reimbursed.

Purdon, who witnessed the explosions from his home with his sponsors, said he had discussed with Garden State Fireworks the possibility that it foots the bill for next year’s Fourth of July show.

Growing raspberries proving to be hard habit to break for Nate & Carolyn Smith

By AdAm drApcho THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

GILFORD — Nate and Carolyn Smith have been farming off Sleeper Hill Road since 1974, using land that’s been in the Smith name since the early 20th Century. Now that the Smiths are closer in age to 70 than they are to 60, they’ve curtailed their operation, which once sold all sorts of fruits and vegetables from their farmstand. This season, they’re only marketing maple syrup, a few blueberries and, since Saturday, raspberries. Even so, the Smiths continue to cultivate a wide variety of crops, which they harvest for their own use.

“I love to grow the stuff. Selling them is just a necessary evil,” said Nathan. Like many other crops, the raspberries are early this year and the Smiths’ pick-your-own patch is full of berries ready to jump from the bush into waiting containers, sure to be brought home and consumed as a sweet-tart taste of early summer.

Picking berries must be an ancient human activity, Nate imagines, dating back to hunter-gatherer societies.

The Smiths have about three-quarters of an acre of raspberries, comprised of winter-hardy Boyne and Killarney varieties. A sensitive crop, Nate knows there aren’t many seasons when conditions line up for a bountiful crop. This year could be one, though.

“They look pretty darn good,” he said, walking down one of the rows, touching his fingertips to the blushing berries. Some berries, though dark pink, refuse to leave the plant. When perfectly ripe, though, the fruit yields to the gentlest of tugs, falling plump into a waiting palm.

The Smiths didn’t offer pick-your-own as an option for customers for the first two years of operation. Nate imagined customers trampling plants and allowing children to recklessly handle delicate fruit. Clientele kept asking, though, so he relented.

Surprisingly, in the three decades of pick-your-own, Carolyn said they’ve only had to ask one party to leave, an all-adult group that engaged in a strawberry-throwing fight. The rest have been agreeable customers, happy to step away from the modern world and engage in an activity that countless of their ancestors would know well.

“People like to save their money, and they like the experience,” Nate explained. These days, almost all of their raspberry business is pick-your-own; he’ll only pick pints for customers who pre-order them.

“They like the nature, the feeling of accomplishment, and it’s good for kids,” he added.

Nate and Carolyn Smith have scaled back their farming activities in recent years but are still offering pick-your-own raspberries for the next couple of weeks. This year’s crop is expected to be a good one. (Laconia Daily Sun photo/Adam Drapcho)

“People like to pick here because it’s quiet,” added Carolyn. She said their customers include yearrounders, seasonal residents and vacationers, and from all age brackets. Everyone wants their time in the berry patch, peacefully filling their pails. Even the ever-present chirping of cell phones is absent from the pick-your-own patch. If there’s one thing for which modern humans will silence their Blackberry, it’s raspberries, apparently.

If Nate was born a couple of generations later, he’s not sure if he would have spent his life on the farm. He tried to leave as a young man, going to Dartmouth College to study electrical engineering.

There, he met Carolyn, a New Jersey girl who grew up 30 minutes from the Lincoln Tunnel and who was a University of New Hampshire medical technology student who was spending a semester at Hitchcock Hospital. “I fell in love on the second date,” recalled Nate. “I thought it was the first,” Carolyn retorted.

After graduating, the couple moved to Washington, D.C., where Nate, who had been a ROTC student at Dartmouth, joined the U.S. Navy to fulfill his service obligation. Fortunately for local berry lovers, the Navy assigned him to five years of a desk job. “I decided I didn’t like desk work too much,” he said, and told Carolyn he wanted to return to the life he grew up with, that of a farmer. She responded, “You want to be a what?”

Despite her surprise, Carolyn went along for the ride, one which is still going, although at a slower pace. When will it end? Perhaps soon, Nate said. “It’s almost season-to-season.” Until then, there’s berries waiting to be picked.

Smith Farm’s pick-your-own raspberry patch is open 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on weekdays or 9 to 4 on weekends. Pickers should bring their own containers. This year’s crop is expected to bear fruit through mid to late July.

Judge tells Laconia that federal medical privacy law does not shield name of man treated by fire/rescue from press

By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA — A Superior Court judge ruled this week that city emergency services must release to a newspaper the name, and only the name, of the man who was burned in a house fire after his cloths ignited while he was smoking a cigarette while using oxygen.

The ruling came after the Union Leader Corp. filed a right to know request with both police and fire departments for their reports and the name of the victim was redacted from the information they provided.

The Fire Department cited the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), privacy, and the victim’s desire to remain anonymous as the reasons for not releasing a name. The report released had all of the information redacted (blacked out) except for the names of the firefighters who responded.

The police report provided to the Manchester newspaper had everything redacted, but since there was no crime and police responded only for traffic control, the report was one page long and appeared to contain minimal if any information.

City Attorney Walter Mitchell gave three reasons for not releasing the name of the individual: the ambulance service provided by the city and LRGHealthcare responded as a health care provider and he argued federal HIPAA laws protect the man’s identity; that releasing the man’s name was an invasion of privacy; and that the burn victim declined to have his name released.

Judge Kenneth McHugh addressed each defense individually.

He said during a July 2 hearing, he posed a question about a hypothetical bank robber who is shot by police fleeing the incident and the city said

that even in that instance, it would not release the name if he or she was medically treated.

“Logic was seem to indicate that the law (HIPAA) was passed ‘for protection of certain health information,’” he wrote in his ruling. McHugh also took into account that certain sections cited by Mitchell indicate the law seems to include identity but the question in this case is whether or not the city of Laconia is a covered entity and McHugh ruled that it is not.

As to the discernible privacy interest, McHugh cited a 2005 N.H Supreme Court ruling that determined a person’s right to privacy is outweighed by the public’s interest. In this case, he said the victim was smoking cigarettes while using oxygen and was living in public housing.

“Again the fact weighs heavily for disclosure as it might result in investigation to determine whether or not past practices were law or whether future measures should be employed so that such an incident does not reoccur,” McHugh said.

To the victim’s request his name not be released to the press, McHugh said that was “the weakest arguement” the city could make because, presumably, most people who are invovled in some type of police or fire incident don’t want their names released.

“Every day in newspapers across the state and country, there are reports of motor vehicle accident with the name of the individuals involved prominently announced even though they may have received significant injuries and have been medically treated,” he said.

“There is a general public interest in such accidents, and there is certainly no exemption in the right-to-know law or in HIPAA for that matter, for motor vehicle accidents,” McHugh wrote.

What makes us American Some of my fondest memories of childhood are of the Fourth of July.

In Swampscott, Mass., we used to have a parade of kids on bikes that went down Aspen Road and then around the corner to Forest Ave. and then up around Lexington Circle, our bikes decorated with red, white and blue crepe paper carefully slotted through the spokes of the wheels. Then, in the afternoon, we’d go down to Phillips Park for all the races, and even though I was never very fast and could never jump very far, there were usually ribbons for everyone. And at night, we’d pull the old beach blanket out, green and brown and rough to the touch, and get a good spot at Jackson Park to watch the fireworks.

It was about family and memories, but it was also a celebration of being an American. We children of the Baby Boom, we children and grandchildren of those who “got out in time” from Europe and Russia, we children who saw Khrushchev bang his shoe and threaten to destroy us, we waved our flags.

That was before Vietnam, before the Soviet Union collapsed, before the enemy became terrorism and we learned that not all of our enemies wear uniforms and not all wars can be won. It was before kids (my own included) got on planes to fly all over the world with far greater abandon than I felt the first time I walked up the stairs of an airplane at 17 to fly from Boston to New York.

In so many ways, the world was smaller then. It wasn’t necessarily less scary (Those useless air raid shelters in the school basement were plenty scary.), but it was smaller. The people you loved were not so far away.

I was proud to be an American, but compared to what? I’d never been any farther away from Massachusetts than New Hampshire.

There were no parades of bike riders in my neighborhood this week. They don’t do fireworks here on the Fourth of July due to safety concerns, crowd control and all that.

My son said that maybe the Fourth of July is a bigger deal in small towns, or maybe it was just a bigger deal 40 years ago.

My kids have friends from all over the world. Our community, unlike the one I grew up in, is full of people who came here to go to school, to be with family or to build a better life — and not just to flee from the

pogroms and the camps or from famine and oppression.

For many people, the Fourth of July is just a day off, a day for a barbecue or maybe a day for your kids to roll their eyes as their mom describes her old blue Columbia bike.

But for me, it will always be more.

I’m not much of a traveler. I always want to come home. My heart leaps when I walk through customs and see that sign welcoming me to the United States.

I know that we are not a perfect country, not even close. Fifty-one weeks of the year, I write about all the things that are wrong: divided politics and ugly rhetoric; racism and sexism and lack of opportunity; lousy schools and inadequate health care for many in need; diseases we haven’t cured; fights we haven’t won; the inhumanity that can rear its head in schoolyards or in the Senate. I am a columnist, which much of the time means that I am a critic.

But I still believe.

In the opening scene of the new HBO series “Newsroom,” the television anchor, when asked why the United States is the greatest country in the world, reels off a long list of statistics supposedly proving that it isn’t. Since he is the hero, I think we are supposed to agree with him. I don’t. I know we can do better. There has not been a moment in our history when we could not do better.

But believing that we can and should do better is precisely what makes us American.

This is the week when I shake my head at the courage and wisdom of those half my age, fresh from battle, who imagined a country “where all men (and today women, too) are created equal” and are endowed by their Creator with certain “inalienable rights” to life, to liberty, to the pursuit of happiness; who have created in this land a nation of laws and not of men. This is the week when I thank God and my grandparents for the courage to get on a boat and sail in steerage to a nation that will always be committed, I hope, to the belief that the best is yet to come.

If you want to call penalty for not being insured a tax, so be it To the editor, This is in rebuttal to Tony Boutin’s letter of July 3.

Mr. Boutin talks about the Supreme Court’s Affordable health care act ruling, deeming the individual mandate constitutional based on Congress’s power to levy taxes.

I have had health insurance everyday of my 50 plus years of life. I have paid tens of thousands, close to one

hundred thousand dollars in premiums. In all those years I never considered going without coverage. I considered it an obligation I had to myself, my family and society at lodge.

So when I hear someone talk about their right not to have health insurance, I also think about our society’s morals which mandates that person receive care whether they can afford see next page

LETTERS It’s been a long time since Gilford needed Board of Fire Engineers To the editor, Voters of Gilford: As a resident of this town, I ask you please do some research on who you vote for, in the future. Who is in charge of this town, anyway? I just read a very annoying article about a member of the Gilford Budget Committee who filed court papers stating that the town isn’t facing an emergency pertaining to the fire department. I only hope this letter gets into the paper before the hearing on Friday in Superior Court before His Honor Justice Kenneth McHugh, and allow the residents of Gilford to read and reply in person. The hearing is scheduled for 1:30 p.m.

If this individual stopped to think just a bit, he would not try to be a hero. If he knew, as many peoples of this town or any other who has experienced a house fire, that the first five to ten minutes are most critical in saving a dwelling or saving a life. What is he thinking? He states that the town of Gilford is backed by 92 engines, six ladder trucks, and seven tower trucks of the Lakes Region Mutual Aid System. Obviously, he does not know how long it takes to get this equipment into Gilford to assist with the initial stop. He has no idea how long it takes for a heavy truck, especially one carrying thousands of gallons of water to make it up Gunstock Hill or up to Gunstock Acres where there are many dwellings. We need the equipment to

do the job within those critical early minutes of a fire, and to give our firefighters the support they need.

I was a lieutenant on the call department many years ago, and I drove the old engine 5, (the Farrar which carried so much water and was not a spec. truck for it’s weight). I know what it is like to have a stock piece of apparatus which operates on flat surfaces and one that has to climb a hilly terrain. Go ahead and spend the $150,000 you would have allocated for engine 4, and do it all over again a few years from. This is one of the reasons I ask the residents of this town to know who they are voting into office.

I would also ask the town folks to eliminate the Board of Fire Engineers. They are not needed now and they were not needed when I served the town many years ago. Come on Gilford, look at what the engineers are doing for the town, what the Budget Committee is not doing for the town, along with what elected officials are doing. We have a Fire Chief (and a good one) who is completely capable of his duties. Let him do his job, along with the Police Chief, and the other department heads (that’s what they get paid for) or elected to office.

Please keep this in mind at election time, you’ll be better off in the future.

Thank you for your time.

Ken Slater Gilford

If replacing Engine 4 is so necessary, why not a used fire truck?

To the editor, In response to Gilford’s Board of Fire Engineers Chairman Akerley’s response to Mr. Stewart’s recent letter on the number of times Engine 4 left the station, I cannot speak for Mr. Stewart but I believe he was referring to the number of times Engine 4 was the Primary Attack pumper in 2010. According to the records Deputy Andrews showed me on May 21, the only time Engine 4 was called to be the primary attack pumper in 2010 was ONCE. It was carefully and emphatically explained during the public hearings that if Engine 2 was at another fire we would not have any primary attack pumper to service a second fire. This is the reason why we needed to have TWO attack pumpers.

Two attack pumpers with one of them being a new half million dollars when the events in question are that infrequent? What happened to Lakes Region Mutual Aid when our equipment is on another call?

In addition, I agree with Mr. Stewart and Mr. Hickok, former Budget Committee members, who have asked repeatedly, if this is so necessary why not a used fire engine? This tax raising expense is not prudent. Gilford’s tax rate is already an alarming $18.55, compared to Meredith’s $12.65, a town of similar size and population. The Board of Fire Engineers is supposed to be an advocate for the taxpaying public right?

LETTERS Please don’t buy into scare tactics used by chief & fire engineers

We need to be thanking the people who visit during Bike Week

To the editor, In the past week we have read letters to the editor from Terry Stewart, a response from Chief Carrier and Bill Akerley, and now a story written by the Sun’s own Gail Ober. It seems that there is some debate about how often Engine 4 was used in 2010. I believe that the chief and Mr. Akerley were correct in their figures, but Mr. Stewart was also correct. Mr. Stewart was referring to the number of times Engine 4 responded to a call as the “first due” engine (because engine 2 was not available). He got this info from attending a Budget Committee Meeting in which a resident spoke about this figure and even publicly got the chief to confirm that her info was correct. I attended a meeting (the result of a right-to-know request) at the fire station with this particular resident. Deputy Andrews showed us these records and pointed out that the entries that were highlighted signified that engine was dispatched as “first due”. We noticed that this was a rare occurrence and asked Deputy Andrews to confirm the figures. He did. I can confirm that according to the records as of May 21st, Engine 4 was only dispatched once as “first due” in 2010.

The chief and Mr. Akerley were referring to the number of times Engine 4 left the firehouse for any number of reasons including training. Ms. Ober quoted Chief Carrier as saying “I’m pretty sure it responded as the primary attack truck more than that” and she noted that he claimed that his data doesn’t show how many times it ran first due. This is a lie...... he knows that they highlight every incident that it ran first due and that it was only ONCE in 2010. I would expect more honesty from a seasoned fire chief!

Since this whole debate started in January ,I have been fighting the urge to not publicly call misinformation by the chief or fire engineers” lies”.

I have tried not to make this debate personal. I tried to keep it to just the facts and not involve personalities. I give up. I have been subjected to an intimidation campaign by certain members of the “Gilford Professional Firefighters” that included physical intimidation tactics, unrelated and unfounded complaints filed against me to the town and even state. All of this is an attempt to silence me. Well,

I have broad shoulders and can take the abuse.

The notion that Gilford’s needs are so specialized that no used truck could be located that will suit Gilford own specialized needs is pure nonsense!

The notion that a 25 year old truck can no longer be used in fire service is false, Meredith has a 29 year old engine, Laconia has a 28 year old engine, Franklin has engines 28 and 36 years old, and Alton has a 37 year old engine. These are just a few local examples of trucks staying in service longer than 25 years.

Please do not buy into the scare tactics that are designed to force the Gilford taxpayers into shelling out more than a half million dollars for a new engine that we don’t yet need. Engine 4 has been out of service since April and we have had an arrangement with Laconia to borrow an engine on an “as needed basis” ever since. It is now July, how many times have we needed that engine from Laconia?

That’s right ZERO! Fire service professionals have contacted me to offer advice and information. I have it on very good authority that Engine 1 (2008 International/ KME) can be used with Tanker 1 as a backup attack engine on the very rear occasion that Engine 2 is out of service. Please tell me again why an EMERGENCY meeting is required?

An article in Firehouse magazine (June 2012) list statistics about random fire departments across the country, for N.H. it list Bedford, Gilford, Laconia, Manchester, and Salem.

It confirms that Gilford is very equipment heavy for a community of less than 7200. Gilford has more engines then Salem (pop. 30,000)!

One correction for Ms. Ober’s article: I never said that 450 horsepower may not be enough. What I did say is that the engine in the proposed new truck (a 9 liter Cummings) would not have much longevity because the horsepower rating is electronically boosted to 450, a rating usually reserved for large 14 or 15 liter engines, but pushing the mechanical limits of the little 9-liter engine that Chief Carrier proposes to purchase. The Chief clearly doesn’t understand truck specs very well. Perhaps he should start listening to a truck expert and not a truck salesman!

Kevin Leandro Gilford

To the editor, Dear Kerry Lee Bergeron: If it wasn’t Motorcycle Week and it had been cars or trucks keeping the boy from crossing the street you would have never said a word. If you were so worried why didn’t you get out of your car and help him cross the street? Do you realize how much money those bikers spent here? Have you ever see anyone ever stop and let them pass?

No! I’m surprised they still come after all the comments people make about them. They’re too loud, dress wrong, drink, etc, etc, etc. But its fact there was a pretty peaceful week, a lot less trouble and a lot of money taken in.

People need to be thanking the people who come up here and spend money instead of always complaining about them. It helps out economy a lot! — our

from preceding page to pay for it or not. I think about a procedure at Mass General Hospital which cost an insured person $22,000, while the charge for the same procedure would have cost an uninsured person a little over $8,000 (this is a fact my friends, please reread that).

Then I think about the following: premiums I’ve paid, the inflated pricing of care I receive because I do the right thing and pay premiums, the $0 in premiums the uninsured person has paid; and with that I ask myself, “can my health insurance premiums or

excess cost of care I’ve been dishing out all along also be considered a tax?”

So, Mr. Boutin, if the health care law requires an uninsured person to purchase insurance or pay a tax, fee, penalty or premium (call it what you will) , I really don’t care one bit, not one bit in the slightest. However, I do agree with one thing you said, I concur that the court ruling to keep the decision within the power of the electorate was the proper outcome.

Neil Lovett Gilford

stores, hotels, boats, trains, etc., got a lot of business last week. And they do every year and next year will the 90th so we must do something right.

If you wanted to write about something, how about the big burned-out building in the Weirs that could fall on the boy with the bike. Hopefully he wasn’t there. Or you could all thank the police officers that worked all week at The Weirs for the good job they did. Thank you. You could tell the families you’re sorry for the bikers that got killed.

If the worst thing that ever happened in your life is a boy that couldn’t cross the street you are a lucky person.

Have a safe summer and pray for our animals.

LETTERS In evaluating medical care, we need more proof of what works best To the editor, The following excerpt from an article in Discover Magazine expresses the truth about “Obamacare” better than anything I have seen.

“Conventional Wisdom: Top-notch health care depends on preserving a diversity of options and patient choice.

Elizabeth DeVita-Raeburn says we need fewer choices and more evidence.

Americans have always valued the right to make their own choices, especially about health care. So it is not surprising that federal health-care reform, popularly known as Obamacare, has sparked fears that the wise counsel of doctors could be replaced by the rubber stamps of government bureaucrats. The common belief is that only doctors truly know what works and what doesn’t.

But the argument falls apart because most doctors lack the evidence to compare various treatments in any absolute way. In 2009 the nongovernmental Institute of Medicine (IOM) released a list of 100 disorders, including lower back pain, atrial fibrillation, and early prostate cancer, that it says require research analyzing which treatments work best for different groups of patients.

Having lots of treatment options is useless if we have no way to intelligently choose between them. That is exactly what we need to remedy in our health-care system: Instead of offer-

ing a vast array of choices, we must eliminate options that are needlessly risky and expensive by providing more proof of what works best.

The government has pledged $500-million annually, beginning in 2014, to do exactly that. Comparing various treatments and supporting the most effective won’t ruthlessly eliminate patient choice. It will help patients and doctors make better treatment decisions. It may end up limiting choice but only by removing the wrong options.

Case in point: a 2007 study in The New England Journal of Medicine comparing the long-term effectiveness of treatments for heart-related chest pain. It found that angioplasty, a surgical procedure to open clogged arteries, was no more effective than medication—a far cheaper, less invasive alternative. “It was a gorgeous study,” says Harold Sox, an internist who co-chaired the IOM report and was not involved in the study. Similar research has recently sorted out treatments for spinal fractures and heart disease.

Funding more of these studies, guided by the IOM recommendations, is critical for strengthening American health care. Patients may like having many choices, but they will love knowing the right one.”

School can be stressful but it also keeps you busy & out of trouble To the editor, Records have shown that crime and bad decision making by teenagers occurs more often in the summer than any other time of the year. When kids are out of school and sports are over, the long summer days seem to stretch out endlessly. At first, the days of free time that engulfs every teenager seems to be the perfect break from a stressful school year, however after a couple weeks boredom seems to take over and teenagers tend to make poor decisions.

When there is nothing to do, and your summer plans consist of “hanging out with friends” day after day, boredom starts to take control. All of a sudden you lose interest in just sitting around talking, and you start to search for an adrenaline rush or something to keep you busy. When teens get to this point, many of them are so desperate for interactions that they turn to vandalism, theft, alcohol and drugs.

According to police statistics, there are on average over eight percent more cases of vandalism and theft in the summer months than any other time of the year. Graffiti, slashing tires, breaking glass, stealing from stores or shops, and breaking into

cars or houses are some of the more popular forms of vandalism and theft that many teens turn to during these stifling times.

During the slow and lingering summer days, groups of under aged teenagers also often get together to have parties where many illegal activities such as under aged drinking and drug use are a common occurrence. At this type of scene, many teenagers end up binge drinking, consuming way too much alcohol in a very short amount of time. This along with the use of different drugs causes their behaviors to change and can result in different dangers including accidents, violence, injuries and sometimes sexual assault.

In order to change the statistics and provide a safer, fun-filled summer for teenagers, there are many things that must be done. There should be more access to summer programs for teens, sports camps, and job opportunities.

It can be very stressful during the school year, but being busy also keeps you out of trouble. If you establish a routine for the summer you are more likely to steer clear of any trouble that may be coming your way.

Obama has emphasis on jobs and eventually paying down the debt To the editor, Who is for America?

If you look at the positions of the candidates running for president, Romney and Obama, you will see who is betting on America. Or, should I say betting on the middle class, the 99-percenters, of America. President

Obama is clear in his support to invest in education, energy, innovation, infrastructure, and reforms in the tax code to level the playing field between the rich and everybody else.

He has an emphasis on jobs and eventually paying down the debt. see next page

‘Straight line micro-burst’ responsible for Wednesday evening’s storm damage

By Gail OBer

TILTON/BELMONT — A meteorologist from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association confirmed yesterday it was a “micro-burst” that wreaked havoc along both the Tilton and Belmont sides of the Lake Winnisquam on Wednesday evening.

The storm whose damage was first reported to Belmont Fire at 6:18 pm. as uprooted trees onto homes and cars.

Power was cut to about 2,000 homes.

“It’s a down burst of air in a thunderstorm,” said Margaret Cutter of NOAA who added micro-bursts tend to be very small scale but dangerously destructive. “It’s like when you feel a burst of cool air before a thunderstorm.”

Cutter described the storm that originated in Canada and cut a 70 mile swath through New Hampshire, beginning in Bath, as a “straight-line” storm as opposed to a tornado or swirling winds.

“Straight-line” storms are reported to be the cause of last weeks damage in the central United States. Some communities through Ohio, Virginia and Maryland are still without power.

Locally, Tilton, Belmont and Sanbornton appeared to have suffered the burnt of the storm although isolated strong winds in other Lakes Region communities broke tree limbs and scattered debris around neighborhoods.

Associated Press reported that three people in Laconia were treated for minor injuries as the result of a lightening strike at a family barbecue. The new service quoted Capt. Kirk Beattie as saying three people in their early 20s were standing near a grill when lightening struck the ground nearby.

They were taken to Lakes Region General Hospital for treatment.

Beattie reported that several buildings in Laconia were struck by lightning and a tree fell onto a house on Academy Street, but no injuries were reported in those strikes.

Belmont Fire Chief David Parenti

said that damage in his community began on Daniel Webster Highway where a tree came down in from of the Aaron’s store and landed atop a car.

He said no one was injured and the family got a ride from friends.

Parenti said the bulk of the damage in Belmont was along most of Sunset Drive and Joy Avenue, both of which are near lake Winnisquam. He said power was out to most of the area but electrical crews worked through the night and expected it to be restored by yesterday afternoon.

He also encouraged victims whose property or automobiles were damages to contact 2-1-1 — a hot line staffed by the state Office of Emergency Services. He said that office records all property damage and statistics gathered through it will be needed to determine if there is a future declaration of an emergency that could make victims eligible for state or federal aid.

Tilton-Northfield Fire Chief Brad Ober said most of the damage in his town was centered along Hill Street, which is directly across the Winnisquam Channel from the Sunset Drive in Belmont. He said firefighters made their way on foot to make contact with each resident and advised them to seek alternative shelter.

Many vacationers at the Edgewater Condominiums were relocated by the Red Cross to the Landmark Inn in Laconia for the evening.

He said there were about 200 people in the immediate area when the storm hit and everyone “was very lucky that there were no injuries.”

A spokesman for Public Service of New Hampshire said about 2,000 customers, primarily in Tilton, Belmont and Sanbornton were without electrical service immediately after the storm but said the number diminishes as the hours go by. He expects all will have had service restored by this morning.

ZIMMERMAN from page one avoid prosecution, this court finds that circumstances indicate that the defendant was preparing to flee to avoid prosecution but such plans were thwarted.”

The judge set much stricter bail terms than those established during Zimmerman’s April hearing, addressing concerns that he would flee. The 28-year-old must stay in Seminole County — he was allowed to leave Florida after his first release. He must be electronically monitored, can’t open a bank account, obtain a passport or set foot on the grounds of the local airport. He has a 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. curfew.

“Judge Lester didn’t like being lied to,” said Orlando attorney Blaine McChesney, who has been following the case. “It is apparent from the opinion that, had Judge Lester, felt he had more discretion under the current law, he would have denied a bond.”

Zimmerman, who formerly lived in Sanford, had not yet been released from jail and his arrangements after his release were unclear.

Zimmerman will have to pay a bail bond company $100,000 and have collateral worth $1 million. Neither

Zimmerman nor his family have that amount in collateral, O’Mara said on his website in an appeal to supporters to donate. The fund now has $211,000 in it, O’Mara said.

“For those who have given in the past, for those who have thought about giving ... now is the time to show your support,” O’Mara said.

The vitriol that was directed at Zimmerman after Martin’s death during a Feb. 26 confrontation in a Seminole County gated community has died down, but the intense media scrutiny of the case also will keep the spotlight on Zimmerman once he is released, with local media following him everywhere he goes.

The 44 days between the shooting and Zimmerman’s arrest inspired nationwide protests, led to the departure of the Sanford, Fla. police chief and prompted a U.S. Justice Department probe.

Martin’s parents and supporters claim that the unarmed teenager was targeted because he was black and that Zimmerman started the confrontation that led to the shooting.

Public invited to watch circus tent go up this morning; 7 weekend performances scheduled for Laconia’s Memorial Park

LACONIA — The Kelly Miller Circus is expected to arrive in town today, and although the first of seven performances this weekend doesn’t begin until 4:30 this afternoon, the public entertainment will begin hours earlier as the caravan of vehicles and trailers arrives in the morning.

The public is welcome to watch as the parade of animals and entertainers pulls in to Memorial Park and prepares for the weekend of shows under the big top. Activity is expected to begin at 7:30 a.m., when animals will be unloaded and fed. A prime attraction is the tent raised at 9 a.m., using

elephant power.

The official performances will be 4:30 and 7:30 p.m. on Friday, 2, 5 and 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, and 2 and 5 on Sunday. Many of last year’s favorites return this year, and will be accompanied by several new and thrilling acts.

Advance tickets are still available for Saturday and Sunday shows only and cost $10 per adult and $6 for children.

Those who purchase admission at the door will pay $15 for adults and $7 per child. Tickets are available at several local businesses, including The Daily Sun office at 1127 Union Avenue.

Man said to have nearly drowned at Winnisquam sandbar

BELMONT — A 45-year-old Tilton man was taken by ambulance to Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon after nearly drowning in the shallow water covering a popular sand bar in Lake Winnisquam, located just north of the Mosquito Bridge.

Fire Chief David Parenti said the department was called to the area at 4:18 p.m. Wednesday to the Winnisquam docks and met the N.H. Marine Patrol who had taken the man from the water and were administering CPR. Parenti said ambulance crews noti-

fied LRGHealthcare whose personnel was ready when they arrived with the victim. He said the man had a heartbeat but needed respiratory support to breathe.

Because of the weather, the DHART helicopter was unable to fly and the man was taken by ambulance to Lebanon.

Parenti said Belmont Police, assisted but Marine Patrol, will continue with the investigation.

On hot summer days, the sand bar is typically surrounded by dozens of boats.

from preceding page mother is Hispanic.

Prosecutors said a website Zimmerman created for his legal defense had raised $135,000 at the time of his first bond hearing. Zimmerman and his wife did not mention the money then, and Shellie Zimmerman even said the couple had limited resources because she was a student and he wasn’t working.

Prosecutors argued Zimmerman and his wife talked in code during

recorded jailhouse conversations about how to transfer the donations to different bank accounts. For example, George Zimmerman at one point asked how much money they had. She replied “$155.” Prosecutors allege that was code for $155,000. Their reference to “Peter Pan” was code for the PayPal system through which the donations were made, prosecutors said.

Shellie Zimmerman faces arraignment at the end of the month on a perjury charge; she was freed on bond.

from preceding page Romney, on the other hand, believes in trickle-down economics; giving tax breaks for the rich and powerful with the hope of that money ending up with the middle class. Of course, that is not sound economic policy as evidenced by the fact that former President Bush tried this and it ended in utter failure — the biggest recession (more accurately depression) since the Great Depression of the 1930s.

As a corporate buyout specialist, CEO Romney made massive profits by shuttering plants, firing workers and

investing in companies that pioneered shipping of good American jobs overseas. President Obama wants to open new plants, hire workers in America, and give tax breaks to companies that keep jobs in America.

So, who is for America? President Obama has demonstrated he is for all of America. His moral outlook plans to better our country, and actions have proven he is a President who looks out for all segments of our society.

Shaheen picks community college as location for public forum in Laconia to drive home a point

LACONIA — Fielding questions before some 40 people gathered for a town forum at Lakes Region Community College last evening, United States Senator Jeanne Shaheen, a Democrat, said “there are plenty of ideas and with the commitment and the will we can solve these problems.”

Shaheen opened by remarking that she chose the venue to mark the importance of investing in further education and job training to prepare people, both young and old, for employment opportunities. Recalling that she had recently visited three manufacturing firms, including New Hampshire Ball Bearing - Astro Division in Laconia, she said that they intended to add 1,000 positions in the near future and were working with the high schools and community colleges to ensure graduates would have the necessary skills. She expressed her support for initiatives taken by Governor John Lynch to provide greater opportunities for the young men and women graduating from New Hampshire schools and colleges.

Taking up the theme, Mark Edelstein, former president of the college, said that with half the places in the education program for veterans already filled, enrollment threatened to outrun the available funding. He spoke of efforts to foster synergies between the traditional arts and technological innovation and Shaheen told him that the same issues have arisen in Concord, which recently was awarded a federal grant of $4.7-million to reconfigure its Main Street to spur economic development.

While confessing that “one of my biggest frustrations is that there is not enough bipartisan cooperation,” Shaheen referred to her partnership with Senator Rob Portman of Ohio, a Republican, in response to several questions about energy efficiency and conservation.

She said their bill would include a voluntary building code with funding to encourage energy efficiencies like those being developed at LRCC, where a grant she helped to secure has enhanced the energy services and technology program.

Ian Raymond, chair of the Energy Committee in Sanbornton that developed the biomass plant now serving the Winnisquam Regional School District, expressed concern that efforts to increase energy efficiency and develop alternative energy sources would stall without funding from the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative and the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Shaheen assured him that her energy legislation would provide funding for these projects, referring specifically to “MUSH,” an acronym for “municipalities, universities, schools and hospitals.”

Questioned about her position on the Northern Pass project, Shaheen replied that she is neither

for or against it, but has met with the Appalachian Mountain Club, Conservation Law Foundation and Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests, all organizations opposed to the project. “The Senate has no role,” she said, “but I have worked to ensure that the process is fair, transparent and open to the public.

In defending the Affordable Care Act in response to a remark by Pat Wood of Laconia, Shaheen stressed that the legislation would improve the quality and efficiency of health care. Offering a second example of bipartisan cooperation, she pointed to legislation she sponsored with Senator Susan Collins of Maine, a Republican, to prevent Medicare patients from returning to hospital by providing the medical and homemaking services they require following hospitalization.

For the most part, Shaheen addressed issues of public policy without straying into partisan politics.

But, when Reverend Randall Scheri of Gilford told her that he and his wife “don’t have the money but we have the feeling in our hearts” and asked “what can we do to advance what we believe is the the necessary and right cause for our country,” she urged everyone to get involved. “We have to get active oursee next page

Court papers indicate dispute that allegedly ended at gun point started with a $70 loan for medicine LACONIA — Police affidavits show the man who allegedly threatened a second man with a handgun Tuesday night remains in Belknap County Jail on $500 cash bail and $2,500 personal recognizance bail after appearing before a judge yesterday morning.

Police said Ralph C. Alexander, 52, of 189 Sheridan St. went to the victim’s home on White Oaks Road and demanded he return the $70 he had allegedly given the victim’s daughter so she could buy some prescription medicine.

Alexander is said to have told police he felt the young woman had “ripped him off” and had given the money to her uncle. He said he went to the house to get the money from the uncle but the woman’s father “flipped out” and told him to get off his land or he would “knock his (explicative) teeth out.”

STATE SCHOOL from page one It incorporates the materials and findings of several earlier studies of the property as well as results of a “visioning session” held at the Laconia Middle School in March, which Hawk moderated.

For the past year the city has been negotiating with the state to acquire property. The site consists of three tax parcels. The largest, consisting of 200acres with frontage on North Main Street (Route 106) and Meredith Center Road, houses approximately 24 buildings and five accessory structures.

The other two lots, a 7.5-acre parcel at the junction of Meredith Center Road and Lane Road and a 10.4acre parcel bounded by North Main Street and Old North Main Street, are both vacant.

The team acknowledged that what it calls the “building campus,” some 40 acres housing 18 of 29 from preceding page selves,” she said.

Shaheen said that because of the Supreme Court decision striking down restrictions on political contributions by corporations and labor unions, expenditures during the this year’s general election are expected to top $11-billion, more than double what was spent in 2008. The decision, which she said entitles corporations to claim tax deductions against their donations and allows contributions to be made anonymously represent “a real disservice to our democracy, to everyone.”

He told police he got back into his truck and was leaving but the victim was still threatening him so he pulled out a gun and pointed it at him.

A second man who was having dinner with the victim told police Alexander told the victim he “didn’t know who he was dealing with” and then threatened verbally to kill him while pointing the gun at his head.

Alexander operates a second hand store and pawn shop in the city. On Jan. 17, 2012 he was convicted of one count of receiving stolen property, a Class A misdemeanor, and was fined $1000 with $750 of it suspended pending six months good behavior. He also was order to pay $100 in restitution to the Laconia Police Department.

— Gail Ober on the site, has “a number of potential uses that will likely require time and patience for economic conditions to mature and make viable re-uses feasible.”

In support of the initial recommendation, the team found that a continuing care retirement community would “take advantage of the historic and architectural qualities of the buildings” and offer “synergy” with recreational and educational uses. At the same time, it would expand employment opportunities and the property tax base without competing with either downtown properties or industrial parks.

Credere, LLC of Westbrook, Maine, which undertook an environmental assessment of the site in 2010, counted 31 buildings with an aggregate of 351,852 square feet of space. The state has included two buildings — Dube and Dwinnell measuring 40,298-square-feet between them — in a 17-acre subdivision, which it will retain, leaving 29 buildings with 311,554-square-feet.

Of the 16 major buildings on the “building campus,” Credere listed seven, totaling 129,429-square-feet as in “good” condition. Two buildings, Quimby with 32,965-square-feet and Toll with 51,468-square-feet, account for two-thirds of all the space. The other nine buildings totaling 128,705-square-feet, are described as in “disrepair” or needing “major repair.”

Moreover, Credere identified a number of environmental risks in and around the buildings that must be addressed before they could be renovated. The report suggests that many of moderate sized buildsee next page

from preceding page ings “appear well suited to renovation” while the larger ones could serve as communal space.

At the “visioning session,” participants were invited designate their preferred options for redeveloping the site. While a small business incubator and educational institution topped the poll, a recreational facility and sustainable agriculture followed close behind. A retirement community was not among the options polled.

Last year the Legislature directed the Department of Administrative Services (DAS) to offer the 200 acres, together with two smaller parcels nearby, to the city of Laconia for $10-million and, if the city declined it, to offer it to Belknap County at fair market value. If neither the city nor

the country purchases the property, it would be placed on the open market to be sold for not less than “fair market value” by May 1, 2013. Meanwhile, an appraisal of the property prepared for the DAS placed the value of the site at $2.16-million.

Earlier this year the city countered the state’s offer at $10-million by offering to purchase the site for $2.16-million. When legislation to change the process to accommodate the city’s bid failed, the state followed the prescribed procedure and offered the site to Belknap County, which has until August 15 to accept or reject the offer.

Since the County Commission has indicated it has no interest in acquiring the site, it will likely be put on the open market. The city could possibly get back in the game at that point.

IRWIN from page one ident of Irwin Marine, a company his father, the legnedary James R. Irwin, Sr. founded in 1919.

As appreciation of the $25,000 gift, Irwin Marine and Jack Irwin will be listed on a “Wall of Fame,” prominently positioned at the entrance to what is to be called Bank of New Hampshire Stadium. The bank, Laconia’s oldest business, is contributing $250,000 to the cause.

Looking back, Irwin said the opportunity to play football played a “tremendous role” in his life as well as those of his classmates. “There were several of my teammates that went on to college that wouldn’t have gone (if not for athletics), and did very well because of it.”

Athletics, he said, “builds character.

It means a lot. It helps young people out so much relative to life: getting the job done, learning to do what people tell you to do.”

It’s not something that only existed in the 1940s, either. Irwin said he sees the process continue when Coach Craig Kozens calls him in to help a punter who’s had a couple bad games.

“I can see it in the kids. I talk to the kids’ parents, they thank me for what we’ve done. It does an awful lot to help the character of the student.”

Indeed, he’s heard several stories of misbehaving young men undergo an attitude transformation after a year or two on the practice field. Some of

those will even earn scholarships to further their education.

That’s why Irwin agreed to participate on a committee to help design a new athletic facility. The group traveled to see new fields in Meredith, Wolfeboro, Portsmouth, Exeter and Nashua. After that experience, Irwin said, “I was embarrassed tho think of what we had in Laconia.” He was committed to provide the same amenities for Laconia players that other students enjoy. As a result, plans for the new field include a “Field Turf” artificial surface of the same design and material that the New England Patriots play on. The field surface will drain water extremely well and can withstand far greater use than grass.

For example, the new field can accommodate a football game on a Friday night, host a weekend-long lacrosse tournament and still be ready for a soccer game on Monday.

Alongside the playing surface will be aluminum, raised seating with a capacity for 800 spectators. Gradual slopes surrounding the field will have enough space for 3,000 more. Kozens added that there won’t be a track between the field and spectators. “It’s going to be fan-involved, it’s going to remain intimate, that Laconia mystique will still be there. It’s a much better venue for everyone.”

Irwin added, “When I go to football games, you’ve got a lot of participation, see next page

Fire levels small welding business in Center Harbor

CENTER HARBOR — Fire caused by sparks from a person welding in a business off the Daniel Webster Highway (Rte. 3) on Tuesday leveled a garage that was part of a small group of family-owned business in the immediate area.

Fire chief John Schlemmer said the blaze was in the Ludwick Excavation complex and when firefighters from Center Harbor and Meredith arrived, a 50-by-75 foot building was engulfed in flames. He said the blaze was called in at 3:11 p.m. and went to a first alarm.

Schlemmer said a nearby building had begun to burn but firefighters were able to extinguish it quickly and fire damage was limited to the welding shop. Schlemmer said the rapid attack nozzle was placed between the two buildings and helped firefighters from keeping the blaze from spreading. The two shops are about eight feet apart.

There were a number of small explosions, said

Schlemmer, from propane and acetylene tanks used for welding. He also said the family had some rabbits who were able to escape their cage that was attached to the welding shop. One of the bunnies has some charred fur, but he said all of them would likely survive.

He said the family home was also near the burning welding shop but it was undamaged.

Schlemmer said Center Harbor was assisted by Meredith, Holderness, Ashland and Sandwich. Laconia covered the Meredith station.

“We responded with a good team and great help from the other communities and were able to save all of the other buildings in the complex,” Schlemmer said.

He said the Department of Environmental Services was called and his department worked with them to make sure none of the water ran off into the lake.

Correction: Horne represents Meredith BOS on Waukewan Advisory panel An article in last Saturday’s edition of The Daily Sun about a workshop on septic system sponsored by the Waukewan Watershed Advisory Committee mistakenly reported that Nate Tore represents the

Meredith Board of Selectmen on the committee. In fact, Selectman Carla Horne replaced Torr as the board’s representative on the committee following her election in March.

from preceding page a lot of community interest, it’s fantastic. It means so much for these kids at an important time in their life,” which is why he felt it was worth making a donation. “It’s going to make a big difference.”

Kozens is grateful to see strong support as the fundraising campaign kicks off. “To this point where we’re trying to get going, our community members, in this tough economy, are as generous as can be.”

Irwin’s gift joins the banks’ and several others who have already contributed $5,000 and will have their names engraved on granite steps leading from the parking lot up to the new field behind the school.

Superintendent Bob Champlin reported that the campaign has collected about 40 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.

Of course, more modest gifts will also be 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.

ROMNEY from page 2 search, saying: “That’s something I’m keeping close with my team.” He also didn’t respond to growing calls within Republican circles for him to shake up his staff after a series of missteps. Among them: his campaign’s initial refusal to side with Republicans who agree with the Supreme Court that the penalty included in President Barack Obama’s health care mandate amounts to a tax. Romney eventually agreed with that assessment and, in doing so, broke with a key spokesman.

All that has conservative opinion leaders, including media titan Rupert Murdoch, calling for Romney to shake up his top staff. GOP officials in key states also are increasingly calling on Romney to talk about issues beyond his key message — that the economy remains weak under Obama — and to be more specific about what he would do as president.

William Kristol, editor of the conservative Weekly Standard, wrote Thursday that Romney’s strategy “strikes me as a path to (narrow) defeat.” The Wall Street Journal editorial page also criticized the campaign’s “insular staff and strategy that are slowly squandering an historic opportunity.”

“Mr. Obama is being hurt by an economic recovery that is weakening for the third time in three years.

But Mr. Romney hasn’t been able to take advantage, and if anything he is losing ground,” the newspaper wrote, calling for “a larger economic narrative and vision than Mr. Romney has so far provided.”

Ann Romney, for her part, took issue with the Obama team’s strategy, telling her interviewer that Democrats will “do everything they can to destroy Mitt.”

“Early on we heard what their strategy was. It was ‘kill Romney,’” she said, adding a message to Obama: “Not when I’m next to him you better not.”

She also sketched out her own requirements for what she’d like to see in a running mate, saying the person should be “someone that obviously can do the job but will be able to carry through with some of the other responsibilities.”

She said the person should be someone who will have her husband’s back and who he will enjoy being around and have “the same personality type.” She added: “Competent, capable and willing to serve this country. I think there’s lots of good people out there that fill that bill right now.”

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Dear Annie: My daughter and her husband moved in with us last year in order to save money and someday raise a family. We enjoy having them here.

The issue is my son-in-law’s 5-year-old boy from his previous marriage. The custody arrangement states that he is entitled to have the child for a month during the summer for extended visitation. I foresee this being a big adjustment for my husband and me. It’s not that we don’t like the child, but we don’t feel all that attached to him. Also, we are done raising our children and are not crazy about the thought of having a toddler for a month. This boy needs to be entertained constantly, and we just don’t have the energy.

My daughter and her husband did not address this with us before they moved in. I adore our son-in-law and want them to treat our house as their home. But is it wrong of me to feel inconvenienced? How can I make it clear that I do not want to be a babysitter without hurting my son-in-law’s feelings?

-- Feeling Inconvenienced Dear Inconvenienced: We urge you to accept this 5-yearold boy and make him part of your family. It isn’t his fault that his parents are not together, and he will look to you to be his grandparents if you permit it. We know it’s difficult to have little children underfoot, but someday your daughter may have kids, and you will be faced with this same problem.

If you don’t want to baby-sit, it’s OK to say you don’t have the energy for that. But you risk alienating your son-in-law if you reject his child. Please make the best of it for the month. Your daughter will be so grateful.

Dear Annie: This weekend I was given two concert tickets that cost $32 apiece. I invited a friend to attend with me. The event was an hour away, and we used her car to get there.

On the way, we stopped at a restaurant for lunch. When we

received the check, she said, “I’m going to let you pay for this since your tickets didn’t cost you anything and I paid for the gas.”

Annie, the fuel bill was less than $10. Still, to keep the peace, I paid the restaurant bill and the tip. Have you ever heard of this before? It was a new one for me. -- Orlando, Fla. Dear Orlando: The tickets may have been free, but you chose to invite this particular person when you could have given her ticket to someone else. Since she paid for the gas, however, a more equitable arrangement would have been to split the cost of the lunch.

Dear Annie: My situation was similar to that of “Need Another Opinion,” whose wife wants to take in her special-needs sister.

After two years of marriage, my mother-in-law had a stroke, and my husband moved her in with us. It was impossible from the start, and I knew we’d never be able to have kids if this kept up. After a year, I said “her or me,” and he put her in a home.

Two years later, when our daughter was a toddler, my mother-in-law decided she didn’t like the place and insisted on moving back in with us. I begged, pleaded, shrieked, but he wouldn’t budge. She moved in and made life impossible.

Within six months, I’d had enough and I left him. That was eight years ago.

My ex is now on public assistance because the cost of caring for his mother and paying child support is too much for him. He hasn’t seen his daughter in three years because he’s too busy with Mom. I remarried, and my daughter loves her stepfather. Under no circumstances should “Need” be forced to take the sister into his home. If his wife wants to spend her life as a caregiver, that’s up to her. -- N.Y.

DAILY CROSSWORD TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

by Paul Gilligan

by Darby Conley

Get Fuzzy

By Holiday Mathis stars.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’ll wear your mood rather obviously. Doom and gloom may go together, but you’re not interested in this kind of wardrobe option. Instead, you’ll throw on a scarf or a tie that’s bright with optimism and cheer.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

Hearts are heavy around you, but they’ll become lighter with a little patience and empathy. Listen to others, and they will return the favor when the heavy heart is your own.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

If you have to go to great lengths to prove your worth to someone, consider that this person may not be an excellent match for you. Ideally, you would be with people who value you “as is.”

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your home is more than a place to rest and nourish your body. It’s also a castle for your spirit. You’ll focus on creating a peaceful environment there.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

Your friendships are important to you.

Instead of being the side dish to other kinds of relationships, they will become the main course and will be quite filling as such.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 6). An investment of your time and energy pays this month. You’ll have stellar ideas as you work toward what’s good for your family and community. You’ll be fired up to make money, and an important deal comes together by the end of August. November brings a happy twist to your personal life. December is romantic. Libra and Sagittarius people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 3, 10, 2, 4 and 16.

by Chad Carpenter

ARIES (March 21-April 19). “When it comes to giving, some people stop at nothing,” said the comedian Georgie Jessel. Your sign mate had a point.

There are those who can’t bring themselves to contribute, but you’ll make up for their stinginess.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Everything good comes from your decision to be the change you want to see in the world. All that you want to receive from others will be sourced from your own example.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You may feel a little overwhelmed today, and it’s OK to say no. Just be upfront with others. This evening, a relationship that seemed to be on the rocks will surprise you.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You carry a torch for someone, and the flames will be noticed in the warmth you radiate. Your passion is irresistible.

The one you think about will feel it, and the rest of the world will, too.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The old saying “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” may be grammatically incorrect, but it still holds true. Trying to improve a situation is dangerous; you could make it worse instead.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll keep a cool head in the onslaught of demands. You’ll put out one fire after another. It’s no wonder people turn to you. Embrace your inner leader, and rally your troops; they’re ready to follow.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll do for others what you wish someone had done for you. You’ll spread your love around. You’ll give attention to the ones who are trying hard and not only to the

In 1777, during the American Revolution, British forces captured Fort Ticonderoga.

Vendor space available for Greenerpalooza showcase

GILFORD — Greenerpalooza V, a showcase of New Hampshire companies leading the way in energy efficiency at the Meadowbrook US Cellular Pavilion, will feature legendary guitarist and humanitarian Carlos Santana at the annual event on July 18.

The highlight of Greenerpalooza is the eco-village at the pavilion, where dozens of green businesses and agencies can display their products, services and inventions.

Space is available for this year’s event and a capacity crowd is expected for Santana, a potential audience of over 5,000 people.

A 10x10-foot booth is $200; a 10x20-foot booth is $300 and includes promotional space; inclusion in the Brookbeat email, with over 70,000 subscribers, and the opportunity to see the Santana performance.

Santana is a natural fit for the fifth Greenerpalooza.

For the past two years, he has partnered with Project Sole, which distributes shoes to people who need them.

“By thinking about recycling and conservation in ways beyond paper and plastic materials, we move toward a planet that is healthier for everyone,” he said. “I am inspired to now find more ways to recycle and I hope that others will be too.”

The event is coordinated by the New Hampshire Division of Economic Development and Meadowbrook, with sponsorship from Public Service of New Hampshire.

For more information, call Lorna Colquhoun, communications director for the Division of Economic Development, at 271-2341 or visit nheconomy.com/ success-stories/greenerpalooza.aspx from preceding page
