GILFORD - The son of a woman who was shot to death in her Country Club Road home last year was charged yesterday with what police are calling an unrelated gun charge. Jonathan R. Miller, 24, of 135
Stark St. is facing one count of being a felon in possession of a dangerous weapon. He was the son of 54-year-old Roberta “Bobbie” Miller. According to statement released to the media yesterday afternoon, Gilford Police accompanied by a N.H. State Police Trooper applied for and received
a warrant to search Jonathan Miller’s home and automobiles at 7:34 a.m. yesterday. Police said only that the warranted search was conducted during a traffic stop on Stark Street. They found a .45 caliber semi-automatic pistol with magazines and ammunition but did not say if the gun was
found in his cars or in his house. Gilford Police said Jonathan Miller has at least one conviction for burglary. A guard at the Carroll County Department of Corrections had three separate accounts of Jonathan Miller being incarcerated there — from June 5 see MiLLEr page 12
Why are we calling Squire Clark’s home the Hathaway House? By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — “They can call it whatever they want, but people of my generation will always remember it as the Hathaway
House,” said Charlie St. Clair, whose late mother Constance and her husband Richard owned the Victorian mansion at 1106 Union Avenue where she operated the clothing store from which the building took
its name. “It was always known as the Squire Clark House until the 1950s,” said John Perley, whose childhood home at the corner see CLarK page 14

N.H. Local Government Center admits corporate restructuring wasn’t done ‘appropriately’ CONCORD (AP) — Officials with the embattled Local Government Center now say its 2003 corporate restructuring was “not completed appropriately” and that it will return to nonprofit status. LGC Executive Director Maura Carroll said in a statement that the mistake was brought to light by the secretary of state. An August report by Bureau of Securities Regulation attorney Earle Wingate III said among other things said the LGC formed “shell companies” in Delaware, which created illegal, nonprofit, limited liability companies. Those illegal companies endorsed current contracts for public employees’ and retirees’ health insurance, as well as policies for property liability insurance for participating municipalities. The Local Government Center was formed to administer benefit and insurance plans for public employees.

From his hiding place, Gadhafi vows no surrender TRIPOLI, Libya (AP) — In a fiery broadcast from hiding, Moammar Gadhafi warned Thursday that loyalist tribes in his main strongholds were armed and preparing for battle, a show of defiance hours after rebels extended a deadline for the surrender of the fugitive leader’s hometown. The rebels, who have been moving troops toward remaining Gadhafi bastions across Libya, had shifted the deadline for the town of Sirte in hopes of avoiding the bloodshed that met their attack on Tripoli. “We want to save our fighters and not
lose a single one in battles with Gadhafi’s forces,” said Mohammed al-Rajali, a spokesman for the rebel leadership in the eastern city of Benghazi. “In the end, we will get Sirte, even if we have to cut water and electricity” and let NATO pound it with airstrikes. World leaders meeting in Paris on Libya’s future after Gadhafi said the NATO military operations would continue as long as needed. The rebels say the advance on Sirte is going well, and that their forces have
already captured one nearby city. They also say they are closing in on Gadhafi, who came to power 42 years ago Thursday in a military coup that toppled King Idris. The rebels have been hunting for Gadhafi since he was forced into hiding after they swept into Tripoli on Aug. 20 and gained control of most of the capital after days of fierce fighting. “We won’t surrender again; we are not women. We will keep fighting,” Gadhafi said in a blustery tone in the audio statesee LIBYA page 5
CONCORD (AP) — The chairman of the New Hampshire Republican Party has resigned. Just minutes before the state’s GOP leaders were expected to remove him, Jack Kimball told a packed room of opponents and sign-waving supporters that he was stepping down after just seven months on the job. “I am not going to become an obstacle for
this party,” he said, his voice shaking. “I am tendering my resignation.” A former tea party leader, Kimball had come under intense scrutiny for lackluster fundraising and special election losses. He lost the confidence of the state’s congressional delegation and most elected leaders. Some Republicans feared the infighting would threaten the state’s coveted position on the primary calendar in the future.
And the Republican National Committee has been reluctant to send money to New Hampshire until the matter is settled. But tea party activists fought for him until the final moments. They crowded into Thursday night’s meeting at the Holiday Inn and waved signs of support. “You’re watching the death of the New Hampshire Republican Party tonight,” said see GOP page 10

Robo-signed mortgage documents date back to 90s After Irene, Rhode Islanders wonder when power will come back on WARWICK, R.I. (AP) — Cold showers. Meals in the dark. Refrigerators full of spoiled food. No TV. No Internet. Up and down the East Coast, patience is wearing thin among the hundreds of thousands of people still waiting for the electricity to come back on after Hurricane Irene knocked out the power last weekend. “It’s like ‘Little House on the Prairie’ times,” said Debbie McWeeney, who went to a Red Cross shelter in Warwick to pick up food and water after everything in her refrigerator went bad. “Except I’m not enjoying it at all.” With the waters receding across much of the floodstricken region, homeowners are mucking out their basements and dragging soggy furniture to the curb. But the wait for power drags on, with an estimated 895,000 homes and businesses still without electricity, down from a peak of 9.6 million. And criticism of the utility companies is mounting. In Rhode Island, a state senator is calling for an investigation, and Massachusetts’ attorney general is demanding information from utilities on how they are dealing with the crisis, including how many crews are in the field and their response time. The industry has defended its efforts, noting it warned the public that a storm like Irene was bound to cause prolonged outages and pointing out that flooding and toppled trees caused severe damage to utility poles, substations and other equipment. Tim Horan, National Grid president for Rhode Island, said crews from as far as Kansas and Idaho are working 16-hour shifts, and “we’re committed to getting this resolved as soon as possible.” In the meantime, people are taking cold showers or washing up at shelters, using camp stoves and grills to cook, competing for ice at the grocery store and relying on generators and hand-cranked radios. The late-summer weather, at least, has been mercifully cool across much of the East Coast. Many homes that depend on wells have no water because they have no electricity to pump it. Relief agencies have been handing out drinking water. And a high school in Exeter, R.I., opened its gym to let people shower. In some places, people on oxygen or other medical devices that require electricity have been taken to shelters that have power. Irene has been blamed for at least 46 deaths in 13 states. With the streets drying out in hard-hit New Jersey, some towns faced new problems, namely trash bins overflowing with waterlogged debris. In Vermont, with roads slowly reopening, the National Guard’s airlift of food, water and other supplies to once cutoff towns was winding down.
Volunteer firefighter identified as suspect in setting 13 fires in Madison & Eaton; charges filed in connection with 1
CONCORD (AP) — New Hampshire police have arrested 18-year-old volunteer firefighter in connection with a string of arson fires that have plagued several small towns at the edge of the White Mountains. John Colcord of Madison is charged with setting a fire in Eaton in June. State and local officials also identify him as a suspect in all 13 fires that have consumed woodlands, brush and barns. They say more charges are expected. New Hampshire state fire investigator Tom Riley told WMWV radio that Colcord was a volunteer firefighter in Madison, where most of the fires occurred. Riley said Colcord was arraigned Thursday and is being held at the Carroll County jail.
NEW YORK (AP) — Counties across the United States are discovering that illegal or questionable mortgage paperwork is far more widespread than first thought, tainting the deeds of tens of thousands of homes dating to the late 1990s. The suspect documents could create legal trouble for homeowners for years. Already, mortgage papers are being invalidated by courts, insurers are hesitant to write policies, and judges are blocking banks from foreclosing on homes. The findings by various county registers of deeds have also hindered a settlement between the 50 state’s attorneys general who are investigating big banks and other mortgage lenders over controversial mortgage practices. The problem of shoddy mortgage paperwork, which comprises several shortcuts known collectively as “robo-signing,” led the nation’s largest banks, including Bank of America Corp., JPMorgan Chase & Co., Wells Fargo & Co., and other lenders to temporarily halt foreclosures nationwide in the fall of 2010.
At the time, “robo-signing” was thought to be contained to the affidavits that banks file and use to prove they have the right to seize a home for foreclosure. Companies that process mortgages said they were so overwhelmed with paperwork that they cut corners. But now, as county officials review years’ worth of mortgage paperwork, in some cases combing through one page at a time, they are finding suspect signatures — either signed with the same name by dozens of different people, improperly notarized or signed without a review of the facts in the paperwork — on all sorts of mortgage documents, dating back as far back as 1998, The Associated Press has found. “Because of these bad titles, property owners can’t prove they own the properties they think they bought, and banks can’t prove they had the right to sell them,” says Jeff Thigpen, the registrar of deeds in Guilford County, N.C. In Guilford County, where Greensboro is located, a sample of 6,100 mortgage documents filed since see ROBO-SIGN page 12

School year said off to a good start because of dad’s blueberry pancakes By AdAm drApcho THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
GILFORD — Yesterday was the first day of the new school year. Three youngsters, representing the three levels of the School District, agreed in their own way that students, teachers, parents and the school each play a role in the successful pursuit of education. Samuel Leggett, who had his first day of first grade yesterday, was full of stories about summer time trips to Water Country, where he went down the “Double Geronimo” slide, and a trip to Walt Disney World. He arrived at the Elementary School toting a backpack stuffed with a pencil box, pencils, pencil sharpener, a notebook and erasers. In Samuel’s view, a good teacher should help students, and, “not be, like, super loud, not yell at people.” Students should also behave, he said, by “helping their friends and not arguing with them. Cleaning up, even if it’s not yours.” As far the school, he said it was important for its users to “not leave it too dirty,” and that it should “have a reasonable amount of bathrooms.” When asked about parents, Samuel said his dad was responsible for sending him to school with a belly full of blueberry pancakes. Samuel’s older brother Connor, who experienced his first day of sixth grade yesterday, also enjoyed the pancake breakfast. While Samuel was impressed by Double Geronimo, Connor was still excited by the Jurassic Park Ride at Universal Studios. “You go uo 85 feet, then you come down in the dark – it’s a raft ride like Splash Mountain – but you’re under a dinosaur.” Good teachers, said Connor “have to be sort of fun, have different ways of teaching stuff. I like it when they have a good sense of humor.” Good students, he said, “should be able to socialize with friends but also be able to concentrate in class.” And a good school, he said, “should have a mix of different kinds of people so you can learn about new religions and traditions, so you learn about other

people’s lives that you never knew about before.” Compared to his younger brother, Connor felt parents played a larger role than that of breakfast cook and school supplies procurer. “When you get assigned homework, if you don’t get it, it’s helpful if parents can help you but not just give you the answer... They also make you pancakes in the morning.” As exciting as amusement park rides can be,
Paige Laliberte, who is starting her junior year of high school, had an even more memorable summer. A goalkeeper, she played with the Seacoast United soccer club as it won the state cup, then traveled with the club as it won the regional tournament in Las Vegas, Nevada. Her team will go to Tampa, Fla. in November to compete in a national tournament. see next page

1st grader Samuel Leggett says one measure of a good school is a ‘reasonable number of bathrooms’
from preceding page Laliberte thought a good teacher “is someone who can use different types of teaching styles that will reach out to different kids. Someone who is personable with kids but not their best friend.” Teachers need to be accessible for the students, whether they’re troubled by academic or personal problems. “Someone who is willing to make that studentteacher relationship and not just be a teacher.” A good student, in Laliberte’s view, “is somebody who can balance the different things they do during school, have relationships with friends and not get too overwhelmed in one thing or another.”
Samuel Leggett, a first grade student at Gilford Elementary School, said a good school is one with a “reasonable amount of bathrooms.” (Laconia Daily Sun photo/Adam Drapcho)
A good school, she continued, is “somewhere where kids feel comfortable, where they feel safe, where they can develop what they like and don’t like.” As for the role of parents, Laliberte said, “I think they should play a pretty good role, but not that they’re ‘helicopter parents.’” She thinks parents should allow their children the space to make their own mistakes. “Be there to suppot them if they need help, but not control what they do.” Opening day enrollment at the Gilford Elementary School was 370 and 335 were enrolled at the Middle School. At the high school, which serves both Gilford and Gilmanton, there were 535 students enrolled as of yesterday. Paige Laliberte, a junior at Gilford High School, spent her summer playing goalie with the Seacoast United soccer club as it won tournament after tournament. (Laconia Daily Sun photo/Adam Drapcho)

LIBYA from page 2 ment, broadcast by Syrian-based Al-Rai TV. His voice was recognizable, and Al-Rai has previously broadcast statements by Gadhafi and his sons. Gadhafi said the tribes in Sirte and Bani Walid are armed and “there is no way they will submit.” He called for continued resistance, warning “the battle will be long and let Libya burn.” In a second late-night audio also broadcast on the Syrian channel, Gadhafi spoke in more measured tones and called for a long insurgency. “We will fight them everywhere,” he said. “We will burn the ground under their feet.” He said NATO was trying to occupy Libya and steal its oil. “Get ready to fight the occupation. ... Get ready for a long war, imposed on us,” Gadhafi added. “Get ready for the guerrilla war.” He called Sirte “the capital of the resistance.” The rebels, who have effectively ended Gadhafi’s rule, dismiss his threats as empty rhetoric. The rebels believe he may be in one of their three key targets. The fighters, backed by NATO airstrikes, have been pushing recently toward Sirte as well as Bani Walid, 90 miles (140 kilometers) southeast of Tripoli, and the southern city of Sabha. All three were given a Saturday deadline to surrender. While the deadline extension was officially only for Sirte, rebels said it would also apply to Bani Walid and Sabha. Pro-Gadhafi forces control most of Sabha and large numbers of soldiers — including mercenaries from other African countries — are camped on its outskirts, said Abdul Awidat, a Sabha resident currently in Tripoli. Awidat told The Associated Press that he has spoken by satellite phone with people in the southern area in the past two days who said pro-Gadhafi forces have taken up positions in buildings and are recruiting young men as fighters and handing out weapons. “There is no information that Gadhafi or any of his enior leadership are in Sabha,” he added.

Corporate elites still doing a job on American workers On this Labor Day weekend, our country is engulfed in deep economic anxiety, and no doubt you share my heartfelt concern for those Americans who’re suffering the worst of these uncertain times. I refer, of course, to millionaire corporate chieftains and big bankers. What? You thought maybe I was referring to our 25-million fellow citizens who can’t get the jobs they need, or the millions more who’re soon to be out of work due to both corporate and governmental cutbacks in the American workforce? No, no, bucko — according to the corporate establishment (top executives, media barons and political elites), the number one economic problem is not the ongoing elimination of middle class jobs and the subsequent destruction of consumer spending. Rather it’s some terrible “uncertainty” that has swept through the executive suites, immobilizing once-proud risk takers, who now wail that Washington’s priority must be to relieve their anxiety. “To create jobs,” implored a senior vice president of strategy at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, “we need pro-growth policies and the certainty necessary to invest and hire.” Certainty? Aren’t these the same corporate honchos who’ve proclaimed (and imposed) a “new normal” of intentional economic uncertainty on America’s workaday majority? Yes, they are. Forget job security and middle-class expectations, they bark at us. Instead, the future for working families will be one of low wages, long periods of unemployment, no health coverage or pensions, a tattered safety net and practically no worker rights — get used to it. What are the “pro-growth policies” these economic elites are demanding from Washington? Deregulation of corporate power, de-unionization, reduction of taxes on corporations, the rich, cutting “entitlement” benefits (Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid), and the privatization of everything from education to transportation — to name a few. Guess who grows under these policies and who shrinks? Bizarrely, the biggest banks are moaning the most insistently about their financial situation. “They’ve been battered by a weak economy,” reported a sympathetic New York Times article on Aug. 29, failing to mention the crucial fact that it was the narcissism and reckless greed of bankers themselves
that weakened the economy. Far from suffering for their disastrous overreach, they’ve kept their gilded positions and have been given trillions of dollars in federal funds to bail out their businesses — with no requirement that they start investing in job-creating enterprises. Having battered us as taxpayers, here they come again to batter us as consumers and employees. Dissatisfied with a 38-percent increase in profits this year over last, such industry leaders as Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase and Wells Fargo are imposing new fees and service charges on their depositors. They’ve also been aggressively shipping jobs to low-wage countries — and now a new wave of layoffs was recently announced by Bank of America, Barclays, Goldman Sachs, HSBC, State Street, Wells Fargo and others, sucking thousands more jobs out of our economy. By a glaring two-to-one margin, the American people have consistently been telling pollsters that the economic crisis is not deficit spending by the government, but jobs, jobs, jobs. Yet our political leaders and media have focused on Washington’s ideological imbroglio over slashing trillions of dollars in spending, rather than dealing with the brutal reality that there are now four jobless Americans for each job opening. Meanwhile, the national presidential debate has turned into a right-wing clown show, with the likes of Gov. Rick Perry and Congresswoman Michele Bachmann suggesting we should eliminate the minimum wage as a way to create the “certainty” that corporations claim they must have before they start hiring again. The only certainty these so-called leaders are creating is more riches for the few at the expense of the many — further heightening the injustice that is an affront to our nation’s fundamental egalitarian values and a threat to our social unity. As John F. Kennedy put it years ago, “If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich.” (Jim Hightower has been called American’s most popular populist. The radio commentator and former Texas Commissioner of Agriculture is author of seven books, including “There’s Nothing In the Middle of Road but Yellow Stripes and Dead Armadillos” and his new work, “Swim Against the Current: Even Dead Fish Can Go With The Flow”.)

LETTERS It was Gov. Lynch & the Democrats who spent N.H. into the ditch To the editor, A recent letter in The Daily Sun by Representative Robert Kingsbury of Laconia elicited the readers’ attention of how frustrating the legislative process in Concord can be when trying to keep promises to ones constituents and equally to the citizens of N.H. (See Daily Sun of August 25) Very similar as he recalls, to false promises he experienced as a rifleman under the command of General Patton in WWII. I can empathize with Rep. Kingsbury in the legislative process because I faced the same dilemma when I served in the Legislature from 95-98. Many legislators when elected lose sight of why they were elected. I suggest Rep. Kingsbury has not. Last week in Friday’s edition of T,he Sun, a constituent of Rep. Kingsbury Mr. Matt Huot, appeared to make some suggestions and titled his remarks with “How about the promises made to N.H.’s families and the poor”? In my opinion he inferred that Rep. Kingsbury was instrumental in cutting aid to the University of N.H. and “eliminating” the share of funding for Medicaid to N.H. hospitals. Moreover, I thought it somewhat disingenuous when his criticism seemed to align Rep. Kingsbury and the Republican Party with making cuts to programs affecting citizens of our state. Fact: it was the governor and the Democrats who broke promises to N.H. citizens. To set the record straight. The Democrats controlled both houses of the Legislature for the past four years-prior to 2011 and Governor Lynch controlled the budget process by allowing the Legislature to spend well beyond what the state collected for revenue. Furthermore, the governor, because of his inability to curb spending, broke his promise with the citizens of N.H. for a balance budget. Caught with a looming
$800-million dollar budget deficiency the governor forced the UNH trustees to give up $25-million from the UNH trust fund — so much for scholarships, tuition assistance and retaining faculty. He also borrowed $8-million from the Road Toll Fund, and another $7-million more from the state’s pension plan with promises of repayment. To date, none of those monies has been restored by the governor. This year the governor submitted his budget for consideration to the Legislature which, by the way, removed all funding for the state’s disabled, handicap and poor that were on the waiting list for funding. We can thank Rep. Kingsbury and the Republican Party for restoring those funds so those in need will no longer have to wait. To the matter of the Medicaid reimbursement: The Democrats and governor had four years to correct a deficiency and the method of how the reimbursements to hospitals were administered as so required by federal statute. They choose to ignore the issue and compounded the problem by a surreptitious method of accepting money from Washington for Medicaid, billing the hospitals for the Medicaid Enhancement tax and returning only a portion of the Medicaid money to the hospitals after diverting the difference to the general fund. As columnist Dean Dexter recently remarked; “the currency of politics is drudgery”. In most instances, I would agree. Yet in this setting, I would surmise, as a highly decorated veteran who knows what it means to fight for a cause, Rep Kingsbury will not let the drudgery of politics interfere in his mission of protecting those promises he made for his constituents, including Mr. Huot.

At least I’m not afraid to sign my name under the things I write To the editor, I just want the COWARD who sent me the nasty letter know that I am sure I know who wrote it even if they were scared to write their name on the bottom of the printed letter. If that person does not like what I write to the editor of The Laconia Sun then
So I am back, like it or not. N.H. and it’s people will always be a part of me. Moultonborough is the best. At least what I write, I put my name to it. How about you, COWARD, doing the same? We are not having a miserable life as you wished it on us. It is GREAT! Anna DeRose

Killing the AT&T goose that laid the golden cell phone egg The Justice Department has announced that it will take AT&T to court, seeking to deny the company from merging with fellow competitor, T-Mobil. This appears to be a hostile act on the part of the government as the suppositions they have put forth for doing so are based more on worst case speculation rather than fact. For a little historical perspective, during the first years of the last century, countless telephone companies sprung up. In some cities, there were multiple companies providing telephone service. However, those companies did not interconnect with each other and that created enormous problems. For example, if there were five telephone companies in town, to be able call anyone in the town, you would need to subscribe to all five companies, each with their own telephones, wires and telephone poles. Calling a person in another state was virtually impossible. The situation was untenable and no solution was in sight. The Bell System president at that time was Theodore Vail, a man of great vision. He went to Congress and pleaded for what was called a “natural monopoly”, to allow Bell to acquire the competition and to establish what came to be known as “universal service”. Vail promised to deliver telephone service to all who wanted it, regardless of their location, and to make it so any telephone in the city-state-country could call any other telephone. The Congress gave its permission and Vail delivered, and exceeded, on his promises. By the time Lyndon Johnson became president, about 60 years later, the Bell System had provided full universal service throughout the country, even to the most out of the way places, on a direct dial basis. The company had also extended calling capabilities by developing the technologies and installing under-seas telephone cables to connect to the rest of the world, and, in the early 1960’s, had operated its “Telstar” satellite, the world’s first satellite telephone and television transmission system. Telephone service in the United States was acknowledged to be the best in the world. Along the way, the Bell System’s research arm, Bell Telephone Laboratories, made a number of significant developments. Foremost among their achievements was the development of the transistor, without which we would never have had our computer revolution. And, the company had also developed cellular technology, but had not implemented it. One limiting factor the Bell System faced was that regulators required a long-term straight-line depreciation of existing plant and facilities. This meant that the company had to carry the burden of amortizing their capital investment
even though their new technologies could make that capital obsolete. As a further complication, the government restrictions required that the obsolete plant be left in place in order to take any depreciation at all. Because of those amortization restrictions, the cellular technology, which had been discovered in 1954, had not yet been developed for implementation when President Johnson’s Justice Department decided it was time to do away with the Bell System’s natural monopoly. As part of the negotiations between the government and the Bell System, the company agreed to place its cellular technology in “public domain”, and to provide all those who would become cellular providers a two-year head start before AT&T would enter the market. This agreement has to rank among the worst business decisions ever made. At that time, the Bell System had 70-million land lines serving the nation and a relatively small number of “mobile telephones”. Mobile telephones were basically open frequency radiophones, where all subscribers to that mobile phone frequency could hear the conversations of any others on that same frequency. AT&T management asked Bell Laboratories for an estimate on the cellular market potential and the labs, likening cellular to mobile radiophones, came back with an estimate of only one million potential subscribers. On that basis, AT&T agreed to put the cellular technology into public domain, as part of the Bell System divestiture plan. The fact is that the cellular technology has grown exponentially and there are now billions of cell phones in use around the world (http://www. infoplease.com/ipa/A0933605.html). Some countries, notably China and India, which had very limited telephone system infrastructures, have been able to jump over the expense of installing wire line technology and go right to cellular. A boon to them in many ways, not the least of which is billions of dollars in investment savings that wire line technologies would have cost. In the United States, cellular has far surpassed wire line services with over 275-million cell phones in use. The Justice Department’s contention that consumers would face “higher prices, fewer choices, and lower quality products” is pure negative speculation. It is one more case of demonizing businesses . . . attempting to kill the goose that laid the golden egg. AT&T’s development of cellular technology, and its history of contributions to the public has earned them better treatment. (Laconia resident Bob Meade is a former AT&T manager. He served in a number of sales, marketing and operations positions and as manager of AT&T’s national technical center.)
LETTERS Vote to override veto of SB-88 and you’ll suffer the consequences To the editor, An open letter to our legislators: Republicans that vote in favor of overturning the governor’s veto of SB-88 are going to make a lot of us lifelong Republicans become independent voters in the near future. None of you seem to realize the danger you will place the general public in; children, innocent by-standers, folks that have nothing to do with whatever is going on, people living in nearby houses, people shopping in nearby stores, people in parking lots and other places trying to get out of the line of fire just because some damn fool feels his/her rights or feelings have been abridged. We honestly believe none of you have ever seen or been involved in any type of gang war that has bullets going every which way at any time of the day or night. We cannot believe that you are essentially giving a license to criminals or others with over-active minds permission to maim
and/or kill someone else because they think themselves in danger. Do any of you read any of the accidental killings of innocent bystanders in the news ? As an ex law enforcement officer in New Hampshire, we have seen many close calls that have been pointed out to you by the current law enforcement officers serving the public today. The possibilities are endless. It has also been pointed out that the current laws are more than adequate for self defense. Maybe you feel we need the old Wild West to come back but as a trained marksman who practiced religiously during my years of service, I don’t think you or anyone else wants to die due to road rage or other cause you’re not even aware of. Please listen to the experts that know what they are talking about. Uphold the governor’s veto or we will all suffer the consequences. Bill Bertholdt Gilford

LETTERS It’s so important in caregiving to have someone you can rely on To the editor, It’s all about back to school time right now – something I am all too familiar with. I just dropped off my beautiful daughter Ashley to college, and the long ride home alone brought a flood of tears, memories and introspection. I wish my husband Joe was with me for the bittersweet trip. I lost Joe not long ago after a series of illnesses. It prompted me to write this letter for a number of reasons…for Joe, as a way to give back, and a way to give thanks. My husband Joe was a member of Mensa, the high IQ society, which provides a forum for intellectual exchange. There are members in more than 100 countries around the world. Activities include the exchange of ideas through lectures, discussions, special-interest groups and local, national and international gatherings. Joe held many positions with Mensa nationally and within the state of N.H. He loved history, museums and challenging mind games. Joe was also on the state board of Destination Imagination for 21 years. And though his brain was sharp, his body plummeted through a series of health problems. Joe had cardiac problems, liver cancer and was diabetic. If that weren’t enough, he had to undergo a quadruple bypass and was on dialysis for the last four years. No matter what his health afflictions were, Joe remained sharp-witted and had a great sense of humor. Unfortunately, Joe’s health problems began to take their toll. I did the best I could to attend to his needs at home – a 24/7 job. I enlisted the help of Home Instead Senior Care.
I don’t know what I would have done without their help in caring for Joe these past three years. Shirley Thorne was his primary caregiver. Both Joe and I were quite impressed with her knowledge of caregiving, her dedication, compassion, patience, sensitivity to meet his needs both physical and emotional, and her tremendous sense of humor and personality. Joe loved a good joke and loved to tease. That’s where Shirley really blended in well with us. She’d retort to Joe, making the teasing and jokes more fun for him – and for me. Shirley sets such a high standard and example for other caregivers. An example of how Shirley went above and beyond … for two weeks she was assigned to another client and was not going to be Joe’s caregiver. However, because he needed someone to bring him to dialysis three days a week at 5:30 a.m., Shirley arranged to still service him for that time. All of the caregivers at Home Instead are knowledgeable and very well trained. And they take the time to listen and develop a wonderful rapport not only with the patients but with the spouses and family members. I think this is commendable. Even the office staff was accommodating and knowledgeable. If they didn’t have an immediate answer they would promise to get back to me – and they did! It is so important in a caregiving situation to have someone like that to rely on. I wanted to share my gratitude for all they have done for Joe and for my family. Nancy Zanca Northfield

Got Lunch! Got real! Most surely Margaret Mead had the “GOT LUNCH!” folks in mind when she gave the world her famous quote: “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed people can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.” When a handful of civic minded people came together at the beginning of the summer to address the high rate of children on the free and reduced lunch program in Laconia, they didn’t wait for permission from some bureaucracy or form a strategic planning committee to study the issues, research causes, and stress over writing a state or federal grant. They did what only caring and concerned citizens can do. They acted! While nearly 70-percent of Laconia’s School District children remain on free and reduced lunch programs, Laconia citizens took action to see that children had nutritious lunches throughout the summer. Volunteers, faith groups, businesses, schools, the media and private agencies came together with a clear mission that kids would not go hungry when school let out for the summer. This incredible effort, spearheaded by members of our local community, pulled off a response no agency could have done proving once more that the health and strength of our community rests within its people and the assets that exist within our associations and institutions. Working together these assets are magnified over and over giving
us the capacity to serve and support our neighbors. Stories shared at the recent end-of-summer celebration of GOT LUNCH! were compelling and confirmed that we live in a community that cares for its own; that poverty does exist; and that working together we can change the future for our children. GOT LUNCH! exemplifies the motto of our local Better Together movement: “Taking our community from ordinary to EXTRAORDINARY!” Out of respect for the humility of the group, I will not attempt to list the many members of this community who made GOT LUNCH! such a huge success. You know who you are and importantly so do we. You are all heroes. You offer us hope and inspiration that we live in a community of caring, concerned neighbors who look beyond their own needs to advance the greater, common good. Thank you for your leadership, inspiration and courage to act proving beyond all doubt that we are truly Better Together! Better Together seeks to rekindle the spirit of our neighborhoods and community in the Lakes Region through people working together to create the community they want to see. For more information www. BetterTogetherLakesRegion.org, or come to one of our monthly meetings held the fourth Thursday every month at the Laconia Middle School multi-purpose room.

Federal govt. grows & demands more & more of your money To the editor, With all the demands for more social programs, let’s look at the cost, not only in money but loss of control over our lives. The cost of administering these programs has been accumulating yearly. They range any where from around 72 to 80-percent, depending on where you get your sources from. So! If I was to give $100 dollars to a family in need it would go directly for that need. The same money taken by the government would use roughly $72 dollars just to run the program and $28 dollars would be used for that need. That is
72-percent above the need. It equals 72-percent inefficiency. Or, another way to look at it we would see $172 dollars taken from us to administer $100 dollars to cover the needs of a recipient. This is one way the federal government has grown and demands more and more of our hard-earned money. What was once a federal government by stealth has turned into a national government — needing more and more to feed its foot soldiers. Creating more poverty along the way. Gene F. Danforth Danbury
Racism is an attitude, not a commodity. It’s in a person’s heart To the editor, It must be getting harder for the friends and supporters of Leo Sandy to think up excuses for his absurd statements but lord knows they try. Even Scott Cracraft took a shot at it today, Thursday, in his letter to the editor. Scott always writes a good letter but I think I’ll take a couple of shots at this one. It doesn’t seem to me that a pot can call a kettle black. By Scott’s stated reasoning the NAACP, Nation of Islam. New Black Panther Party, Congressional Black Caucus, most liberals and all progressives are linked
if someone doesn’t jump up immediately to decry any outlandish or vial statement or action then they are all collectively guilty. Please allow me to respectfully disagree. As to Leo’s and his definition pertaining to racism only applying to dominate power groups, I also disagree. Any individual or group can practice racism, with or without power, it’s all a matter of degree. Racism is an attitude not a measurable commodity. It’s what is in a person’s heart and that can only be judged by words or actions not by inaction or silence. Steve Earle

LETTERS Here are the real facts to consider about Obama’s administration To the editor, Ed Allard had a lively response in Saturdays’ Sun to an article by Terry Stewart concerning taxes and other issues. If there are any arcane statistics to be found to defend MORE spending and the spread of SOCIALISM throughout the land, Ed can come up with them. He scours the encyclopedia of useless, irrelevant facts to discover some real gems. What people want to talk about is president Barack Obama. His job approval rating now is the lowest of his term at 39-percent. Ask yourself, are you and your family family now better off since Democrats took office? The shadow of success or failure is cast from the White House down. Every American knows that if nothing else. The simple truth is this country is floating at the top of the economic TOILET BOWL after three years of democrats and President Obama. We are there because the president has made failed policy decisions one after another since taking office. Democrats refuse to change direction no matter the disastrous consequences. The recent debt downgrade, the first in our history, was caused SPECIFICALLY because the Obama administration has signaled it has no serious intention to stop spending, cut the deficit or deal with any economic problem quickly or sensibly. Obama now has POLITICAL PARALYSIS, consumed with fear that any action he might make could alienate segments of voters he needs to stay in office. His paralysis becomes AMERICA’S PARALYSIS. Here are a few REAL facts not “phony Ed baloney” for every person in the Lakes Region to think about and consider. 1. Obama’s record on employment is an absolute, unending failure. Unemployment is SKY HIGH and forecast to be so indefinitely. 2. Obama has put our country into” hock” up to it’s bloody EYE BALLS with non-stop spending, fruitless stimulus, and hand outs. 3. Obama has created such an uncertain economic climate in the U.S. that businesses refuse to HIRE and they refuse to INVEST.
4. Obama’s policies have put the American economy on LIFE SUPPORT, barely growing at less than 1-percent and we may slip back into recession 5. Obama has DILUTED the value of the U.S. dollar to literally nothing by printing them 24/7 to finance endless spending. 6. Obama’s housing market is one of the worst in modern history. Homes are still LOSING VALUE and no one dares buy one. 7. Obama’s refusal to stop spending prompted S&P to DOWNGRADE our debt for the first time in history. 8. Obama’s WEAK DOLLAR policy has driven investment capital that creates jobs to foreign shores, where it can earn a higher returns 9. Obamacare will RATION HEATH CARE to all Americans and it will bankrupt states via Medicaid to pay for it. 10. Obama’s regulatory agencies have been among the most aggressive in history, pouring cold water on business expansion. 11. Obama’s only economic policy is BUSINESS DEMONIZATION, then he wonders why they do not trust or like him. 12. Obama’s administration describes the word” PROFIT” as detestable. 13. Obama’s administration defines success as merely how HIGH he can make TAXES GO UP and the deficit with it. 14. Obama’s zero interest rate policy has CRIPPLED SENIORS who need a rate of return on their savings to pay for their retirement. I do not have to tell you the failure that democrats and Obama have wrought on us all. You already know it. Democrats have just SIMPLY been FAILURES at running America efficiently and productively to produce opportunity for us all. After reading this, Ed will be trying to make a delicious cheesecake desert out of almost three years of donkey poop. I am certain it will be served flambé! Tony Boutin Gilford

LACONIA — With the promotion of his handler Michael Finogle to Sergeant, K-9 Jago has chosen early retirement and the Police Department is seeking contributions from the public toward the cost of hiring and equipping a new dog. Jago , a six year-old German Shepherd, has served four years with department. Although he was generally deployed about 150 times a year, he and his handler were on call around the clock, often working in the dead of night and all sorts of weather. The K-9 unit was formed in 2000, with Yogi as Finogle’s first partner. Yogi so impressed one veteran officer that he was moved to remark “if we could teach Yogi to drive, we could lay off Finogle.” Yogi passed away suddenly in 2006 and was succeeded by Jago in 2007. Both dogs compiled exemplary records tracking suspected criminals, finding missing persons, detecting illicit drugs, locating valuable evidence and protecting police officers. Above all, the K-9 earned the admiration of the
community, which marked Yogi’s passing with letters and cards as well as donations to sustain the program. Jago was acquired for $4,200, all donated to the department. Police Chief Chris Adams estimates that the department must raise $10,000 to purchase a dog along with the specific equipment required by the K-9 unit. He said that with the pressures weighing on the municipal budget, the K-9 unit will be jeopardy without the generosity of the community. In anticipation of collecting the funds, the department is in the process of selecting a handler to replace Finogle, who must commit to serving as the K-9 officer for at least five years. With sufficient funding, a handler can be named, a dog purchased and a K-9 unit trained and certified by the summer of 2012. Jago will officially retire sometime after the first of the year. Anyone interested in contributing to the K-9 program should contact either Lieutenant Matt Canfield or Sergeant Michael Finogle at the Laconia Police Department, 524-5252.
AGWAY from page one The Osborne family have been farmers in Loudon from 1770 until 1986 when they sold their dairy herd. They opened their first Agway store in Hookset in 1987. The site, according to the application, was previously permitted for a proposed commercial lot with four buildings and a total footprint of 10,016 square feet with 91 parking stalls. According to the preliminary site plan, the Agway proposal includes a 4,800 square-foot showroom, two greenhouses totaling 1,920 square feet, office space and a 3,120 square-foot warehouse. The proposed store came as welcome news to former Hillside Meadow Agway co-owner Lynn Matzke whose husband Thomas and brother-in-law, Phil owned and operated former store on Rte. 3 in Tilton. She said her family closed their store because the primary store operator, Phil Matzke wanted to retire as did she and her husband Thomas. She said she knows the Osbornes and considers them to be excellent store owners. GOP from page 2 local tea party member E.J. Bleiler of Dover.

“It’ll be nice to have an Agway in that area,” she said.

Sanbornton farm’s corn maze is a tribute to the New Hampshire quarter By AdAm drApcho THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
SANBORNTON — For several years, Heritage Farm on Hunkins Pond Road has been among the several local farms that create mazes in their corn fields as a way to encourage the public to interact with local practitioners of agriculture. This year, the farm’s corn maze is designed as an homage to the New Hampshire state quarter. Featuring the profile of the Old Man on the Mountain, the state motto “Live Free or Die” and “1788”, the year that New Hampshire became a state, the design serves as a way for brothers and farm employees Brian and Dennis Etchells to pay tribute to their new state, as they have recently relocated from Rhode Island. Brian Etchells has worked at Heritage Farm for almost five years and brought the idea for a themed corn maze from his experience on farms in Rhode Island. “Your average corn maze gets boring,” Etchells said. The maze they designed criss-crosses a 5-acre field planted with what Etchells called “cow corn,” grown as feed for the Swain family’s dairy farm, located just up the hill from Heritage Farm. The corn grows thick and a dozen feet high in places, shorter in others. The paths were cut using a 54-inch wide mower, though leaves of the plant encroach on the maze-goers path. Feeling engulfed in the corn is all part of the experience, they say. The design features several paths to successfully find the exit – and many dead-ends and ways to travel in circles. A lucky person might be able to solve the maze in a half-hour, though some will need twice as much time. Although the farm will raise some revenue through admission to the maze, Etchells said the project is also about offering another opportunity for the farm to connect and interact with residents of the region, beyond simply selling agricultural products. He asked, “How many city folks get a chance to run through planted corn?” “It’s like a life-size puzzle ,”said Samantha Newman, manager at the farm. “When you’re right

On September 30 and October 1, the farm will open the maze from 7 to 9 p.m. for those who would like to try to solve the maze under the light of a full moon. If that’s not enough of a thrill, the maze will be haunted during the “Heritage Farm Fright Nights,” held on Friday and Saturday nights during the last half of October. This year, half of the proceeds from the Fright Nights will be donated to a relative who is fighting cancer. Those special events, in addition to the farm’s pancake house and petting farm, are examples of agro-

National Committeeman Steve Duprey, who was among those prepared to vote Kimball out Thursday night, praised him for putting the party first.

Young people these days don’t know where milk comes from, how life used to be.” Newman continued, “It’s only three miles from the Winnisquam Bridge, but it seems so much farther – you’re getting away from the hustle and bustle and enjoy a day on the farm.

Regulators have so far not asked lenders to clean up the potentially millions of suspect documents filed in the past decade or earlier. That troubles some banking experts, including Sheila Bair, who until early July was chairwoman of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. “We do not yet really know the full extent of the problem,” Bair said in written remarks to the Senate Banking Committee. She and others have called for a comprehensive study on the extent of the fraudulent signatures in mortgage documents. If documents with robo-signed signatures are challenged in court, judges could question the ownership of the properties, says Katherine Porter, a professor at University of California see next page

Indiana man charged with force-marching grandkids at Grand Canyon
FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (AP) — An Indiana man will remain jailed in Flagstaff after a judge found probable cause on allegations that he forced his grandsons on brutal hikes in the Grand Canyon. Christopher Carlson, of Indianapolis, faces six counts of child abuse. He appeared Thursday before a federal magistrate who determined he’s a flight risk and a danger to children. The boys — ages 12, 9 and 8 — told investigators
that they were not allowed to drink water and had been limited to little food during trips to the Grand Canyon last month. Authorities say Carlson tortured and beat the boys, and instructed them to lie to park rangers about any injuries. Carlson’s attorney argued that prosecutors failed to show that Carlson knew the boys could suffer serious injury or death.
Boaters allowed to go back to normal speeds on Silver Lake BELMONT & TILTON — The New Hampshire Marine Patrol lifted the order designating Silver Lake as a “no wake zone” as the water level receded to below 467 feet above sea level. Last week, in anticipation of tropical storm Irene, the Dam Bureau of the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services (DES) began lowering the level of Lake Winnipesaukee to provide storage capacity for heavy rainfall. The discharge at Lakeport Dam was increased from 200 cubic feet per second (cfs) to 400 cfs by Wednesday, then more than doubled to 1,000 cfs by Thursday before being raised to 1750 cfs over the weekend. By Sunday afternoon the water at Silver Lake topped 467 feet and on from preceding page Irvine School of Law and an expert on consumer credit law. The consequences extend to homeowners in good standing when they try to sell. If invalid documents are discovered in the chain of ownership, it could delay the sale or make it difficult for buyers to get a mortgage because title insurers won’t write a policy for the property, says Justin Ailes, vice president of government affairs of the American Land Title Association, a trade association representing the title insurance industry. Banks and other mortgage lenders won’t write a home loan without title insurance. Among the findings shared with The Associated Press by county officials from several states: — An investigation of mortgage documents in the county that includes Salem, Mass., found that more than 25,000 had suspect signatures. The earliest date to 1998, says John O’Brien, the registrar of deeds there. — In Michigan, the state attorney general has sent criminal subpoenas to three companies that processed mortgage paperwork after 24 local recorders of deeds looked through their files and found rampant robo-signing. — An Illinois county, Kankakee, pulled a sample of 60 documents filed since 2007 to look for suspect signatures. All 60 were “signed” by people who have been identified as robo-signers. At least 12 county officials in Illinois have sent their findings to the
Correction: 524-5710 is the number to call regarding LHS alumni reunion
An article published in our Thursday, Sept. 1 edition provided incorrect information for those wishing to identify people in Tuesday’s mystery Laconia High School photo. The phone number is 524-5710 and the e-mail address is jbrough@laconia.k12.nh.us.
state attorney general. The results of these reviews are troubling to the registers of deeds in counties across the country. It’s job of these front line officials to record documents on property transfers and they need to be able to trust that notarized paperwork is legitimate. “I want papers that come into our office to be clean,” says Lori Gadbois, the recorder of deeds in Kankakee County, whose office handles more than 15,000 mortgage documents in a typical month. Many banks began outsourcing paperwork at the beginning of the housing boom around 1998. That’s when an increasing number of home loans were being packaged into securities on Wall Street and sold off to global investors. As demand skyrocketed, lenders and mortgage processing firms hired entrylevel employees to sign hundreds of mortgage documents a day. Sometimes they forged the signatures of executives who were qualified to sign. Other times, actual executives signed the documents without ever verifying their accuracy. Many of the documents were stamped by notaries even though the people who had signed the documents weren’t present when the papers were notarized, a requirement by law. All are instances of robo-signing, and are illegal because they involve people signing legal documents and swearing to their accuracy without verifying any of the information.

The historic Squire Clark House — or Hathaway House, if you prefer — on Union Avenue in Laconia will be back to its original color (taupe, with cream trim and dark green shutters) when restoration work now underway is completed. (Laconia Daily Sun photo/Michael Kitch)
CLARK from page one Clark Avenue and Union Avenue — now the site of Paramount Settlement Services, LLC — is less than a block from the landmark. He recalled that each year children in the neighborhood turned the sloped yard into a toboggan run and tapped the maple trees for syrup. “I think that such a historical building should be dignified with its original name.” Perley hastened to say that he meant no disrespect to the St. Clairs, but said that the Hathaway House was not only of recent vintage but also referred to a business not the building. The home was built in 1870 by Samuel C. Clark, a prominent attorney in Lakeport, then known as Lake Village. Clark was born in Lake Village on January 9, 1832, when Andrew Jackson began his second term as president of the United States. He was schooled in Gilford and at the New Hampton Academy then studied law with Stephen Lyford of Laconia and Asa Fowler of Laconia. In 1857, Clark was admitted to the New Hampshire Bar and named
Clerk of the Court in Belknap County, a position he held until 1874. Clark served two two-year terms the New Hampshire House of Representatives, the first in 1867 and the second 10 years later. Meanwhile, he was named assistant Clerk of the House in 1870 and 1872 and Clerk in 1873 and 1875. Perhaps his initial political success went to his head, because Clark, who was called “Squire,” had begun to fancy himself a future governor and intended the house would be his official residence. Although he never became governor, Clark earned notoriety and respect in the the community. He was a promoter and director of the Laconia and Lake Village Horse Railroad and during the Civil War served as deputy provost marshal, overseeing the military police. Later he was a director of both Laconia National Bank and Lake Village Savings Bank. All the while he maintained a lively law practice at the Clark Block on Elm Street. Clark died unexpectedly on March 19, 1897 after a brief bout of pneusee next page

Yankees rally in 7th to beat Red Sox 4-2 BOSTON (AP) — Mariano Rivera struck out Adrian Gonzalez with the bases loaded for the final out and Russell Martin hit a go-ahead double in the seventh inning that sent the New York Yankees past the Boston Red Sox 4-2 Thursday night despite stranding 12 runners in the first six innings. The lack of clutch hitting cost A.J. Burnett a potential victory as he began September with a solid performance after a horrible August in which he was 1-2 with an 11.91 ERA in five starts. In this one, he gave up two runs and five hits in 5 1-3 innings. The Red Sox led 2-1 on Dustin Pedroia’s two-run homer after Alfredo Aceves (9-2) escaped a basesloaded jam in the sixth. But he allowed three runs in the seventh and took his first loss in relief after winning 18 straight decisions out of the bullpen. Rivera loaded the bases in the ninth but threw a called third strike past Gonzalez to earn his 36th save in 41 opportunities.
The Yankees moved within a half-game of the first-place Red Sox in the AL East by winning two of three in the series. New York is 4-11 against Boston this season, and the teams have one three-game series remaining at Yankee Stadium from Sept. 23-25. Nick Swisher started the seventh by striking out. Aceves then walked Andruw Jones and hit Jesus Montero, a top prospect making his major league debut, with a pitch. Aceves was replaced by Daniel Bard, who gave up a double to right-center by Martin, the first batter he faced. Two runners scored and Martin went to third on the throw to the plate. Pinch-hitter Eric Chavez followed with an RBI single. Cory Wade (3-0) got the win after pitching to just one batter, Jed Lowrie, who ended the sixth by flying out. Boston starter Jon Lester struggled in each of his see RED SOX page 26
from preceding page Clark and his wife Clarissa had three children. A son Samuel Clarence, born in 1857, died in infancy, but three years later Clarissa gave birth to twins, Samuel Clarence, known as Samuel, Jr. and Claribel. Samuel, Jr. married but sired no offspring. He died in December, 1901, eleven months after his mother passed away at the age of 66. Claribel, who never married, lived in the family home while traveling frequently and widely, until her death at 93 in 1953. Local legend has it that her ghost has stalked the mansion ever since. Four years later, the St. Clairs acquired the property. In September 1957, The Laconia Evening Citizen reported that the St. Clairs, Constance and her husband Richard, had restored the house to its “Victorian splendor” inside and out to house a clothing store called the Hathaway House. “All Laconia has watched with interest and appreciation the work as it has progressed,” wrote City Editor Ebba M. Janson, “and the couple have received many letters from persons who visited the house years ago thanking them.” The exterior of the house was painted a gray beige, setting off the distinctive white woodwork, while the interior was decorated with Victorian wall papers and period hues and graced with elegant chandeliers. The weathervane and cupola, sold earlier to an antique dealer, were returned to the barn. In the 1970s, the St. Clairs sold the property,
which became home to a string of businesses before it was acquired in 2000 by an affiliate of Cafua Management Company, LLC of North Andover, Massachusetts, the largest Dunkin Donuts franchisee in the Northeast, as the site of new store. Originally the firm planned to demolish the Hathaway House and replace it with a strip mall, but in response to pleas from concerned residents and city officials agreed to build only the new Dunkin’ Donuts building and preserve the Victorian landmark. In 2008, when the Planning Board approved the project, Gregg Nolan, director of development and construction for the company, volunteered to paint the Hathaway House and fit it with fire alarm and suppression systems. This week, after several years delay, work to repair, renovate and repaint the building began. Pam Clark, who chairs the Heritage Commission, said “I’m so happy that something will be done before winter.” She explained that an analysis of the paint on the house undertaken to determine its original colors determined that when it was built it was painted taupe, a word derived from the Latin name for the Common European Mole designating a grayish brown hue. The ornate trim was cream and the shutters a dark green. Clark said that the mansion will be finished in its original garb. And Perley prefers it be known by its appropriate name — the Squire Clark House — to match.

Apples, mushrooms and pops at Castle in September
MOULTONBOROUGH — Apples, mushrooms and pop will all be featured at the Castle in the Clouds during the first week of September. Just in time for apple picking season, the Castle will be opening a new art exhibit, “The Apple of My Eye,” featuring apples in art. This exhibit, from a private collection, depicts every aspect of apples, in still life and in landscape. A reception for this show, that runs through the end of October, will be held on Friday, Sept. 2 at 5:30 p.m. at the Carriage House Art Gallery. It is free and open to the public.
The last Walk and Talk of the season, September 5, Labor Day, at 10 a.m. is the ever popular mushroom hunt led by well known mycologist, Rick Van de Poll. With all the rain the are ahas experienced, a bumper crop of mushrooms is expected which Van de Poll will help identify. The walk is free with grounds pass obtained at the main gate. On Tuesday, Sept, 6 from 6-9 p.m., Chad Porter, acoustic guitarist and vocalist, returns to the Carriage House patio with his renditions of contemporary rock and pop music. This is the fourth Tuesday of contemporary music at the Castle and is becoming as popular as the always sold out Jazz evenings. Cocktails and the usual tapas style cafe menu are available for purchase. The performance is free and reservations are not required but guests should come early to get a table. Porter is sponsored by the Griffin Club of the Castle Preservation Society,which is dedicated to expanding Castle offerings and attracting a younger audience. Entrance by Ossipee Park Road. The Castle operation is a non-profit business and all donations, as well as Castle business revenues remaining at the end of an operating year, go toward the maintenance of the property and restoration of the nearly 100 year old Arts and Crafts style buildings. Castle in the Clouds, a historic house museum, is open every day from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. through October 22. For further information on admissions and other events, visit the web site at www.castleintheclouds.org. To make reservations for special events call 476-5900.
LACONIA — September’s exhibit at The Studio provides a chance for the community to see art making in progress as well as in final, installed form. From 11a.m. to 4 p.m. beginning Tuesday September 6, artist Mike Lewis will be working to create his floor-to-ceiling installation, complete with sound. He’ll be finishing on Friday September 9, and his opening reception will be from 5-7 p.m. on that day. “Love Me” will be on view for the rest of the month. “People don’t often get to see artists at work,” says Melissa McCarthy, the artist who runs The Studio. “This is a chance for anyone to come in during the week, sit and watch the process, come back on Friday for the party, then visit the installation any time during the month.” Mike Lewis is from New York and is studying at
the Maine College of Art. His installations and paintings have been exhibited in New York and Portland, and his signature playful critters are what attracted McCarthy to contact him regarding a show. “I think most people’s expectations of an ‘art exhibit’ are limited to paintings in frames hung on a white wall; this is an opportunity to see art in a form that won’t immediately suggest that it would look great in the family room. The Studio is a place to explore art that is outside those limitations.” The Studio is located at 84 Union Avenue in Laconia on the second floor. Hours are Wednesday through Friday, 10 a.m.-5 p.m. and Saturday 10 a.m.- 3 p.m, other times by chance or appointment. For more information call 455-8008.

SMH participating in statewide initiative to promote colorectal screenings PLYMOUTH — Speare Memorial Hospital has become an official data collection site for the New Hampshire Colonoscopy Registry to help learn the best use of colonoscopy for colorectal cancer screening and preventions.
Working in partnership with Dr. Lynn Butterly, director of Colon Cancer Screening at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center, Speare submits quarterly, confidential reports on patients’ colonoscopy examination
English as 2nd language courses offered LACONIA — Laconia Adult Education is offering beginning and intermediate free ESOL (English Speakers of Other Languages) classes starting on Tuesday, Sept. 13 and Thursday, Sept. 15. These classes meet from 6-8:30 p.m. in rooms 216 and 217 at Laconia High School. The ESOL classes will enable new learners of the English language to speak, read, and write English. It is most important for foreigners making their home in the Lakes Region to be able to communicate in emergencies
and in everyday living situations such as shopping, making doctor appointments, filling out job applications, communicating with their child’s school and teachers, and everyday expressions of common courtesy. There is no charge for the ESOL vlasses. Those who know of someone who could benefit from ESOL classes, but who may not be able to read this article should tell them to call the Laconia Adult Education Office at 524-5712 to enroll in the ESOL classes.
MEREDITH — The Paws for a Cause Comedy Night and Auction held recently at Church Landing raised over $55,000 for the New Hampshire Humane Society. Shelter spokesperson Marylee Gorham said that work began in February with a committee of handpicked volunteers working with the society’s development office, and didn’t stop until the final fundraising results were recently tabulated. “Events such as this auction take a phenomenal amount of time and dedication and even some toughness, to ensure everything works out as planned. Again, our volunteer base showed just how committed these folks are to the mission” said Gorham. She said that the New Hampshire Humane Society thanks the event sponsors, Laconia Savings Bank and VCA Lakes Region Veterinary Hospital, who underwrote the event, followed by event supporters Penny Pitou and Milo Pike Charitable Fund, KPinc Consulting and Paws Antiques.
She extended special thanks to Dockside Florists, which provided beautiful flower centerpieces for the tables. Board President and committee cochair Julie Irwin said “$28,000 was raised on the night in response to our plea for help providing care for specific cases, totally separate from the high stakes bids present at both silent and live auction segments. In total, the proceeds will ultimately help over 1,300 animals that arrive at our door annually”. Mary Di Maria, executive director of the humane society, said “Everyone had a wonderful time enjoying the entertainment provided by comedians Steve Guilmette and Jim Colliton. It isn’t just about raising funds, it’s also about acknowledging those that already care about the animals and showing how much we appreciate their support.” Planning is already underway for next year’s event, penciled in for August 9, 2012. For a complete list of donors refer to the society website www.nhhumane.org
Paws for a Cause event raises $55,000
from preceding page sports and promote firearm safety. Three events are scheduled for Sunday, September 25. A silhouette shoot will be held at the covered 50/100 yard range and an IDPA shoot will take place on the cowboy village area beyond the 200 yard range. Also, a trap shooting clinic will be held on this date starting with classroom info in the morning and live shooting with coaching in the afternoon. For information on these events and to see range closure schedules, visit the club web site at www.pemi.org or call club public relations chair Fred Allen at 968-9944.

results and any pathology report if a polyp was removed or biopsied. “Patient participation in the registry is voluntary,” explains Miriah Greenwood, RN, surgical services clinical leader at Speare. “We provide all our colonoscopy patients information about the registry in advance, explaining that we are looking to capture data from the results of their procedure to learn more about medical, environmental and genetic factors that affect colon cancer. Ultimately, we are trying to raise awareness and increase the number of preventative screenings.” Colorectal cancer is the second most common cause of death from cancer in the United States. It is also the most preventable, treatable and beatable if found
early. The New Hampshire Colonoscopy Registry has been developed with support from the National Cancer Institute and the American Cancer Society. The American Cancer Society recommends colonoscopy screenings begin at age 50, earlier for people with a family history. Call Plymouth General Surgery at 536-5670 to schedule a colonoscopy in its’ state-of-the-art, high definition Endoscopy Center. Dr. Joseph Casey and Dr. James Koren are accepting new patients. Speare Memorial Hospital is a 24-hour, acute care, non-profit community hospital and health care provider serving Plymouth and the communities of central New Hampshire for more than a century.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Annie: My husband and I have been married for 21 years, and we have five wonderful children. “Tom” is 50, and I am 39. In the past few years, Tom has developed an annoying habit. He openly ogles attractive women and young teenage girls. I can understand one glance, but he stares. After we walk past, he’ll look over his shoulder to get the rear view. Later in the day, he will sometimes remark that I should wear this or that revealing outfit, tone my muscles more, dye my hair a specific color or lose weight. Mind you, I am a size 4. Tom says he finds skinny women with large breasts and tattoos a turn-on. I don’t look like that. I have told Tom that his newfound habit is hurtful and disrespectful to me. It makes me feel that I’m not pretty enough and gives the impression that these women could easily steal him away. It embarrasses me so much that I don’t want to go anywhere with him. We no longer take evening walks, and forget about restaurants. When I tell this to Tom, he becomes angry and often yells at me. He insists he’s doing nothing wrong and has no intention of stopping. He says I’m the one with the problem, and that I’m jealous and spoiled. Is he right? Do I need to change? Is this the proverbial male midlife crisis? Why doesn’t he care how much it upsets me? He could at least not do it when I’m with him, but he won’t. -- Unhappily Married to an Ogler Dear Unhappy: Many men have these thoughts, but Tom seems to have lost the ability (or willingness) to censor his actions in public. Ask him to get a complete physical to make sure his “new habit” isn’t being exacerbated by a medical condition. If he is simply behaving like a toddler in a candy store, you must decide whether you can ignore his boorishness. Most women find this behavior pathetic and obnoxious,
rather than seductive. Dear Annie: Another family gathering is coming up, and my husband and I find ourselves becoming tense, as usual. My husband has two sisters who think it’s great fun to catch mistakes people make and then ridicule them. They do it under the guise of good-natured teasing, but it comes across as mean-spirited. His other siblings are kind and considerate, but the family sticks together and would never tell these two to knock it off. My husband is getting older and has become a little forgetful. He is a target of their ridicule, and he hates it. He pretends to be a good sport, but he has confided in me that this treatment bothers him a great deal. Should I say something in order to make family gatherings less stressful? I hope these sisters will recognize themselves here and try to be kinder, although I know few people see themselves in the column. -- The Outlaw Dear Outlaw: Take one of these sisters aside privately and say, “I know you care about your brother, but he’s sensitive to the fact that he’s getting older. When you make fun of him, it hurts him terribly because you are his family and he loves you. I know you don’t mean to cause him pain, so I hope you will keep this in mind.” Rest assured, some day the shoe will be on the other foot. Dear Annie: I had to respond to “Modest in Iowa.” Being an OR nurse and someone who has recently had surgery, your response was right on. More and more men are going into nursing, and I assure you, they have only a professional interest in their female patients. The male nurses I work with and those who have cared for me are wonderfully compassionate and quite sensitive to privacy concerns. -- An OR Nurse

All the signs are there, but you’re too active and involved in your world to wonder what others think about you. That’s part of what makes you so charismatic. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your encouragement and interest will inspire someone to keep going. These qualities, as well as your patience and love, are the most significant gifts you can give to others. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You have an increasing power to heal with your thoughts. You also have the potential to hurt with them. So be mindful and use your new level of influence well. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your environment will reflect your gentleness, softness and kindness to others. There is a strength in this tone that is far greater than the loud aggression that sometimes goes on in the world. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 2). Put yourself in physically different situations -- you’ll shine as a newcomer. This month, you’ll take action and gain recognition for your talent and ability. Children figure into your work. Teaching will bring excitement to your world. Now, November and January are the best months for business. Cancer and Scorpio people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 40, 1, 42, 31 and 17.
by Darby Conley
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You possess remarkable powers, both visual and social. You’ll create pictures in your mind of you in a not-so-distant future, having a ball with the people you most want to know. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Spend some time figuring out what you really want. When you’re not sure, you can’t help but send out a mixed signal. Who knows what you’ll bring back? It’s like casting a fishing line out with pizza for bait. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). There’s a so-called Chinese “curse” that sounds suspiciously like a blessing: “May you live in interesting times and attract the attention of important people.” Enter gingerly into potentially ego-inflating situations. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You know exactly why a scenario is not working out the way you want it to. One powerful person stands in the way -- or rather, it is this person’s beliefs that thwart your effort. This belief can change with the right persuasion. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). There are many ways to go about your work, some of them much more expensive than others. Investigate your options. Liking a person is not a good enough reason to employ him or her. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You strive to be your best in every situation, but the fact remains that some situations will bring out a less than optimum side of you. That’s why it’s important to get plenty of rest and give yourself every advantage. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Someone has borrowed a part of you as though you were a book, and it is now time to call that part of you back. You need all

––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Friday, Sept. 2, the 245th day of 2011. There are 120 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Sept. 2, 1945, Japan formally surrendered in ceremonies aboard the USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay, ending World War II. On this date: In 1666, the Great Fire of London broke out. In 1789, the United States Treasury Department was established. In 1864, during the Civil War, Union Gen. William T. Sherman’s forces occupied Atlanta. In 1901, Vice President Theodore Roosevelt offered the advice, “Speak softly and carry a big stick” in a speech at the Minnesota State Fair. In 1935, a Labor Day hurricane slammed into the Florida Keys, claiming more than 400 lives. In 1945, Ho Chi Minh declared Vietnam an independent republic. (Ho died on this date in 1969.) In 1969, in what some regard as the birth of the Internet, two connected computers at the University of California, Los Angeles, passed test data through a 15-foot cable. In 1986, a judge in Los Angeles sentenced Cathy Evelyn Smith to three years in prison for involuntary manslaughter for her role in the 1982 drug overdose death of comedian John Belushi. (Smith served 18 months.) In 1991, President George H.W. Bush formally recognized the independence of the Baltic states of Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia, which had broken away from the Soviet Union. In 1998, a Swissair MD-11 jetliner crashed off Nova Scotia, killing all 229 people aboard. One year ago: Israeli and Palestinian leaders pledged in a first round of renewed peace talks in Washington to keep meeting at regular intervals. Seattle Storm forward Lauren Jackson was selected the WNBA’s most valuable player for the third time in her career. Today’s Birthdays: Dancer-actress Marge Champion is 92. Jazz musician Horace Silver is 83. Rhythm-and-blues singer Sam Gooden is 72. Singer Jimmy Clanton is 71. Rhythm-and-blues singer Rosalind Ashford (Martha & the Vandellas) is 68. Singer Joe Simon is 68. Actor Mark Harmon is 60. International Tennis Hall of Famer Jimmy Connors is 59. Actress Linda Purl is 56. Rock musician Jerry Augustyniak is 53. Country musician Paul Deakin is 52. Actor Keanu Reeves is 47. Actress Salma Hayek is 45. Actress Kristen Cloke is 43. Actress Cynthia Watros is 43. Rhythm-andblues singer K-Ci is 42. Actor-comedian Katt Williams is 38. Actor Michael Lombardi is 37. Actress Tiffany Hines is 34. Rock musician Sam Rivers (Limp Bizkit) is 34. Rock musician Spencer Smith is 24.

Students who worked were Nicolas Garofalo, Jenna Howe, Kelly Amato, Haley Bassett, David Lewis, and Katie Watts. Student advisor Christine Schultz and a member of the faculty, Jetta Morrison arranged the workday and were working alongside the students.

Only 2 of 19 Laconia establishments fail to stop underage decoy from buying booze LACONIA — City Police and the N.H. Bureau of Liquor Enforcement spent yesterday trying to buy booze with an underage decoy. Capt. William Clary said of the 19 establishments where attempts were made to purchase alcohol, all the the
Laconia Spa and the Tyler Street Market refused to sell to the belowlegal-age decoy. Clary said summons were issued to the two stores and said he hopes for 100-percent complince during the next booze run.
RED SOX from page 15 five innings, throwing 114 pitches, but gave up only one run. That scored in the first when he needed 43 pitches. Leadoff hitter Derek Jeter struck out, but Curtis Granderson and Mark Teixeira singled and Robinson Cano drove in the run with a double. Teixeira left the game in the bottom of the seventh and is day-to-day with a bruised right knee after he was hit by a pitch from Aceves in the sixth. Burnett allowed just one hit through three innings. Gonzalez led off the fourth with a double and Pedroia homered into the center-field bleachers, his career-high 18th of the year.
He hit 17 in 2008, when he was the AL MVP. NOTES: Aceves is 23-3 in his career. He entered the game as the only pitcher in baseball history to win 23 of his first 25 decisions. ... The Red Sox added first baseman-outfielder Conor Jackson, obtained Wednesday night from the Oakland Athletics, and recalled left-hander Felix Doubront from Triple-A Pawtucket. ... Montero, a top prospect for the Yankees, stranded six runners as the designated hitter. ... Bard’s streak of eight scoreless outings ended. ... David Ortiz extended his hitting streak to 15 games with a single in the second.

Court case reveals details of secret CIA flights
WASHINGTON (AP) — The secret airlift of terrorism suspects and American intelligence officials to CIA-operated overseas prisons via luxury jets was mounted by a hidden network of U.S. companies and coordinated by a prominent defense contractor, newly disclosed documents show. More than 1,700 pages of court files in a business dispute between two aviation companies reveal how integral private contractors were in the government’s covert “extraordinary rendition” flights. They shuttled between Washington, foreign capitals, the U.S. military base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and, at times, landing points near oncesecret, CIA-run overseas prisons. The companies ranged from DynCorp, a leading government contractor that secretly oversaw the flights, to caterers that unwittingly stocked the planes with fruit platters and bottles of wine, the court files and testimony show. A New York-based charter company, Richmor Aviation Inc., which supplied corporate jets and crews to the government, and a private aviation broker, SportsFlight Air, which organized flights for DynCorp, have been engaged in a four-year legal dispute. Both sides have cited the government’s program of forced transport of detainees in testimony, evidence and
legal arguments. The companies are fighting over $874,000 awarded to Richmor by a New York state appeals court to cover unpaid costs for the secret flights. The court files, which include contracts, flight invoices, cell phone logs and correspondence, paint a sweeping portrait of collusion between the government and the private contractors that did its bidding — some eagerly, some hesitantly. Other companies turned a blind eye to what was going on. Trial testimony studiously avoided references to the CIA. When lawyers pressed a witness about flying terrorists from Washington or Europe to Guantanamo Bay, Supreme Court Judge Paul Czajka of Columbia County, N.Y., put on the brakes: “Does this have anything to do with the contract? I mean, it’s all very interesting, and I would love to hear about it, but does it have anything to do with how much money is owed?” At another point, the name of a high-level CIA official was mentioned, but the official’s intelligence ties were not divulged. Among the new disclosures: —DynCorp, which was reorganized and split up between another major contractor and a separate firm now known as DynCorp International, seesee next page next page

from preceding page functioned as the primary contractor over the airlift. The company had not been previously linked to the secret flights. —Airport invoices and other commercial records provide a new paper trail for the movements of some highvalue terrorism suspects who vanished into the CIA “black site” prisons, along with government operatives who rushed to the scenes of their capture. The records include flight itineraries closely coordinated with the arrest of accused 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheik Mohammed and the
suspected transport of other captives. —The private jets were furnished with State Department transit letters providing diplomatic cover for their flights. Former top State Department officials said similar arrangements aided other government-leased flights, but the documents in the court files may not be authentic since there are indications that the official who purportedly signed them was fictitious. —The private business jets shuttled among as many as 10 landings over a single mission, costing the government as much as $300,000 per flight.
