State advises Meredith it has no money to reconstruct Neck Rd. By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

GILFORD & BELMONT — The campaign to found a cooperative football team between the Gilford and Belmont high schools seems to have official legs now as administrators from each district confirm that they’ve been in contact and plan to begin discussions. The drive has been spurred lately by a pair of parents – one in Gilford, the other in Belmont. Belmont High

MEREDITH — Officials of the New Hampshire Department of Transportation (DOT) told the Board of Selectmen last night that the prospects of significant improvements to Meredith Neck Road in the foreseeable future are dim. “We use whatever the Legislature gives us for our budget,” said Nancy Mayville, municipal highway engineer at DOT. “Unnumbered state roads are at the low end of our priority list and will get the short end of the stick.” As an unnumbered state road, Meredith Neck Road qualifies for a program by which the state contributes two-thirds and and the municipality one-third toward the cost of reconstruction. But, the annual budget for the program is $1.7-million, which with the local match provides $2.55-million for projects across the state. Moreover, once the road is reconstructed it is commonly transferred from the state to the municipality. At least four and perhaps five miles of Meredith Neck Road require what DOT calls “heavy reconstruction,” including reclaiming and resurfacing the roadway as well as improving the ditching and drainage, which cost approximately $1-million per mile. Meanwhile, since 1993 the State Aid Highway Program has accrued $461,372,53 for the project, which includes the local matchsee MeRedItH page 14

Netflix says it’s sorry, then creates new uproar

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — The CEO of Netflix said he was sorry for mishandling a recent price increase that caused customers to cancel the service in droves. But the apology was drowned out by a decision that angered subscribers all over again. The company will split into two services — one with an odd new name that offers the familiar discs in red envelopes and another for online streaming of TV shows and movies. The DVD service will be called Qwikster, a name that is supposed to signify a commitment to fast service but quickly became an object of ridicule Monday on the Internet. The streaming service will keep the Netflix name. Netflix, which had 24.6 million U.S. subscribers at the end of June and is the nation’s largest video subscription service, redefined home entertainment over the past decade with its DVDs by mail. Now it’s trying to prepare for the day when watching movies on a disc goes the way of driving to the video see next page

Obama says more taxes on rich not class warfare, ‘it’s math’ WASHINGTON (AP) — Drawing clear battle lines for next year’s elections, a combative President Barack Obama on Monday demanded that the richest Americans pay higher taxes to help cut soaring U.S. deficits by more than $3 trillion. He promised to veto any effort by congressional Republican to cut Medicare benefits for the elderly without raising taxes as well. “This is not class warfare. It’s math,” Obama declared, anticipating Republican criticism, which was quick in coming. “Class warfare isn’t leadership,” House Speaker John Boehner said, in Cincinnati. Obama’s speech marked a new, confrontational stance toward Republicans

after months of cooperation that many Democrats complained produced too many concessions. While the plan stands little chance of passing Congress, its populist pitch is one that the White House believes the public can support. The president’s proposal, which he challenged Congress to approve, would predominantly hit upper-income taxpayers and would also target tax loopholes and subsidies used by many larger corporations. It would spare retirees from any changes in Social Security, and it would direct most of the cuts in Medicare spending to health care providers, not beneficiaries. Benefit programs wouldn’t be unscathed.

Obama’s plan would reduce spending for those, including Medicare and Medicaid, by $580 billion. But with Republicans calling for massive cuts in entitlement programs, Obama said he would veto any legislation that cut Medicare benefits without raising new revenue. His plan also would count savings of $1 trillion over 10 years from the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq and Afghanistan. The deficit-reduction plan represents Obama’s longer-term follow-up to the $447 billion in tax cuts and new public works spending that he has proposed as a shortterm measure to stimulate the economy. see TAXES page 15

Lamontagne quick to enter open race for governor

BEDFORD (AP) — As expected, Republican Ovide Lamontagne has announced he is once again running for governor of New Hampshire. Lamontagne, a Manchester lawyer, was the Republican nominee for governor in 1996 before losing to Democrat Jeanne Shaheen. He also ran unsuccessfully for U.S. Senate last year, losing the Republican primary to the Kelly Ayotte. WMUR-TV reports (http://bit.ly/plrFjf) that Lamontagne made his announcement at a GOP breakfast in Bedford Monday morning. Kevin Smith, head of conservative group Cornerstone, also is considering a run. Democratic Gov. John Lynch announced last week that he will not seek a 5th term.

MANCHESTER (AP) — Guided by the motto “arise and walk,” the new leader of New Hampshire’s 300,000 Roman Catholics said Monday he is eager to learn about his new home and confront its challenges. The Rev. Peter Anthony Libasci wasted no time in embarking on what he said would be his first goal — listening carefully to his parishioners and getting a feel for the state’s culture. On the same day the Vatican named him to succeed Bishop John McCormack as bishop of the Diocese of Manchester, Libasci held an introductory news conference, followed by visits to a Catholic high school, a food bank and a convent. During the news conference, Libasci described how his motto — drawn from a scriptural passage about what the apostle Peter is said to have told a lame beggar — has helped him to forge ahead when confronted with obstacles. He recounted volunteering

Man upset over ‘lemon’ crashes into Portsmouth used-car dealer’s lot

PORTSMOUTH (AP) — A Massachusetts man who crashed his newly-purchased minivan into six cars at the Portsmouth, N.H., car dealership lot because he couldn’t get his money back says he knows what he did was wrong. Forty-two-year-old David Cross of Salisbury, Mass., was charged with six felony counts of criminal mischief and one count of driving with a suspended license after he deliberately crashed his van into six cars at the Portsmouth Used Car Superstore in July. In court Monday, Cross told the Portsmouth Herald (http://bit.ly/n5y2fM ) that he was stressed out about money and that he made a bad decision. But he also blames the dealership for not letting him return what he calls a “lemon.” A dealership manager says Cross’s wife purchased the van, a 2000 model, “as-is.” from preceding page store to pick up a VHS tape. But lately, it has bungled the transition. The company has lost half its market value since July, when it announced that customers who wanted DVDs and streaming had to pay for them separately — and pay up to 60 percent more. The decision to rebrand the best-known part of Netflix’s business left some experts wondering whether CEO Reed Hastings is losing the touch that established him as an influential figure in technology and entertainment. Others see the logic in trying to make sure Netflix keeps a thriving business as customers abandon DVDs and shift in greater numbers to beaming movies and TV shows into their living rooms over high-speed Internet connections. It’s going to be a painful transition, as Hastings acknowledged as he cut loose the DVD service.

to become pastor at St. Therese of Lisieux parish in Montauk, N.Y., in 1999, when the parish was deeply divided over what to do about its crumbling church. Under his leadership, the parish came together and decided to build a new church, he said. “When you’re paralyzed by fear, in the name of Jesus Christ, let’s try this, we can do this. When we don’t know what to do, in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazerene, arise and walk. We can do this,” he said. “And so I am eager to ask God, can we do this again, wherever it might be.” Libasci will be officially installed as bishop Dec. 8. McCormack, who announced his retirement in August when he reached the Vatican’s mandatory retirement age of 75 in August, called his successor a “true servant of the church,” who will serve the state well as the diocese’s 10th bishop. see BISHOP page 14

1986 in Center Harbor, all over again Time Capsule Unearthed. Eloise Coudert, who was director of the 1986 summer program for the Center Harbor Parks and Recreation Department, looks at Polaroid photos taken that summer of activities at the town beach. The photos were in a time capsule which was buried on the lawn of the Nichols Library in September of that year and unearthed and reopened Sept. 10. Among those taking part in the unearthing were Duke Kline, center, whose children, Derek, 5 at the time, and Danae, who was 3, put items in the time capsule. In addition to a large cache of photos, there were also copies of Time magazine with a cover photo of the Challenger explosion, a hacky sack and a BMX magazine which Matt Beem, then 11, had put in the capsule. His father Bob Beem was at the unearthing. There was also a copy of the Meredith News, photos of the town’s new tennis court, a Teen magazine and a Kurt Gibson baseball card as well as Garbage Pail Kids. Water had seeped into the time capsule, a plastic pail wrapped with garbage bags, but the items have been dried out and are now on display at the library. (Roger Amsden/for The Laconia Daily Sun.)

FOOTBALL from page one School Principal Russ Holden said his school has previously made unsuccessful attempts to arrange for Belmont High students to play on the Gilford High School team. Belmont does not have a football program. However, with a new superintendent in Gilford, and a new high school principal there as well, Don Zimmer of Belmont and Chad Anderson of Gilford thought the time might be right for one more try. Zimmer’s son had been playing football during his middle school years and was disappointed to have to drop the sport for lack of a team. Meanwhile, Anderson, a coach of Gilford’s 7th and 8th grade team in the Granite State Football League, saw that there aren’t enough young players in the development system to sustain the high school team in years to come. Zimmer, for several months this year, attempted to get officials from Gilford and Belmont to discuss the issue but didn’t see any signs of progress. To help spur a conversation, he and Anderson have developed a petition with which they hoped to show widespread support for a cooperative team. The two high schools already share an ice hockey team. After just two days of petitioning, the pair has accumulated more than 100 signatures and expect to collect more. “It’s going to move forward because it’s what the will of the people is,” said Zimmer. “I suspect we’re going to have a lot of signatures by the time this is done.” Anderson noted that many families who have been active in Gilford football and are knowledgeable of the program’s challenges were quick to sign the petition. “Our numbers are not going to support this in the future,” he said.

The petition will be circulated around area businesses in the coming days. Those who would like to add their signature can call Anderson at 321-7698 or e-mail Zimmer at zyotaman11@aol.com. Their agitation has already produced some results. Gilford Superintendent Kent Hemingway said on Monday, “discussions are going on now between Shaker and Gilford school districts.” Mark Blount, Shaker Regional superintendent, confirmed that he had received an invitation from Gilford to begin a conversation. If the administrators and school boards of the two districts can develop a strategy to manage and fund a cooperative team, the concept would have to be approved by the New Hampshire Interscholastic Athletic Association. While those negotiations are occurring, Gilford High School football coach Mark Brewer will continue to compete in the lowest of NHIAA’s six divisions. With 27 players this year, Brewer said Gilford’s participation level is about average for Division VI, which features many schools that have added football in recent years. “All the newer teams are about the same,” he said. So far this year, Gilford’s Golden Eagles have two wins and one loss. Brewer said that teams are divided into divisions based on the enrollment of the schools that support the team. Therefore, a cooperative football team with Gilford and Belmont would compete against teams from larger high schools. Laconia, for example competes in Division IV. Regarding the proposal, Brewer cautioned, “It’s good to look into it, these are some of the other things we need to look at.” see next page

Lies I’ve been told Other people may have had very different experiences and come to different conclusions but I have been lied to by the media, k-12 education, the church, the military and government. The lies I have been told have come in different forms. Most were lies of omission where important facts or ideas were just left out and never mentioned such as the Trail of Tears. Oftentimes, my current students will be very upset when they learn something new. They ask, “Why weren’t we told this in high school”? In my earlier school years, sometimes facts were presented but in a manner so sanitized that they lost all meaning. Some facts were provided without any context. Textbooks were written from a totally western perspective. We never learned Native American/First Nation views of westward expansion nor did we learn that almost, if not all, treaties were broken by the American government, especially when they found Native Americans sitting on natural resources. Many lies were of the boldface variety. All these lies were mostly intended to preserve cultural myths and to maintain the existing order. Reality is unsettling, disturbs people and creates fear and uncertainty. It introduces mystery and ambiguity and these are anathema to many people. To have the meaning of the world wrapped up in a neat package with a pretty bow is very comforting and soothing. One big lie I was taught is that the United States and its people are better than everyone else and that we have the right to take what we want in the world because of this American exceptionalism. This lie has led to the dehumanization of some groups such as slaves, Native Americans, Vietnamese, Muslims and many others. According to William Graham Sumner, a Yale University sociologist, “one’s own group is the center of everything… Each group nourishes its own pride and vanity, boasts itself superior, exalts its own divinities, and looks with contempt on outsiders”. Reverend William Sloan Coffin stated that,“All of us tend to hold certainty dearer than truth”. Galileo offered a scientific alternative to established wisdom and it cost him the rest of his life in prison because the church had enshrined the lie that the earth was the center of the universe. How many Galileos are amongst us now professing truths that meet with intense disapproval? Truth itself is elusive and its pursuit has many blind alleys. It also changes with new discoveries. Those who claim to have the truth are the least likely to have it. These are the dogmatists who always have the answers. This is the reason questions are so much more important than answers and that’s why we

need the academy (university) more than ever. Truth has been defined as fidelity, constancy, steadfastness, faithfulness, freedom from falsehood, reality, fact, an established principle, exactness. The first person who told me the truth was my grandmother. When I watched cowboy and “Indian” shows that glorified cowboys and demonized “Indians”, she told me that “Indians” were good people. When I watched the McCarthy hearings that looked for communism everywhere and about which I was never taught, she told me that Russians were good people. She was my first cultural diversity teacher and I never forgot her lessons. The next place I found the truth was at the university. I do not recall my professors ever lying to me and what they taught I was able to verify through multiple sources. Liberal or left leaning professors were especially good sources of truth because they actively sought out alternative views and did not seek manufactured or fawning consensus. For them class was most stimulating when it involved debate and controversy. Many offered ideas in the form of “Some people believe that….” and then let the students engage in dialogue about the issue. Liberal students were also never coddled in the process. I also had some conservative professors but they tended to exclusively lecture and discouraged comments. This is not to say that all conservative teachers do this. I am only relating to my experience. Other sources of truth for me have included literature, parts of the Bible, the Koran, the Torah and Talmud, the major religions, literature (Shakespeare is brimming with truth), science, top secret government documents, alternative media, whistleblowers, young children, artists and creative people in general, critical thinkers and specific people like Albert Einstein, Bertrand Russell, Howard Zinn, Daniel Ellsberg, Thoreau, Gandhi, M.L. King, Jr., Anderson Sa, Thich Nhat Hanh, Mother Teresa, Colman McCarthy, Oscar Arias, Bruno Hussar, Desmond Tutu, Riane Esler, the Dalia Lama, Henry Salt, Albert Schweitzer, Astrid Lingren, Jane Goodall, Rachel Carson, David Suzuki, Nader Khalili, Wangari Maathi and many others. Gandhi equated truth with nonviolence because of the nonviolent prohibition against killing and because violence is very dependent on lies, e.g. “disinformation”. I believe that I will not generally find the truth in the media, government, the military and the church or any organization or people who stand to benefit through lying although there may be several exceptions. There are currently many assaults on the academy by individuals and groups whose aim is see next page

LETTERS Mr. Juve was right; stop painting rosy picture of our wars in Asia To the editor, Thank you Lynn Rudman Chong for your letter supporting Richard Juve, who in my opinion was treated with great disrespect here in Meredith at the 9/11 gathering. I do not know Mr. Juve that well, but with what I have learned about him over the years through the news media, he is one to step up to the plate and speak out when he feels an injustice is being carried out. Our country is no longer the country that we knew when we were growing up and the country that our parents generation fought for in WWII. We have become a country of self-centered, money making entrepreneurs, who have one goal and one goal alone and that is their own personal wealth. This is evidenced throughout this country as jobs have been lost to many while their jobs were sent overseas to cheaper labor and increased wealth to the wealthiest Americans. Homes and propertys are destroyed as these sick individuals are allowed to run over those who get in the way of their profit making endeavors. America now believes that it has the right to go beyond it’s shores and

destroy and take whatever resources other countries have. Our children are being brought up to be sent into harms way to help pave the way for these demented individuals to continue their pursuit of “Their American Dream”, at the expense of everyone but themselves. Mr. Juve is so right about the Saudi’s. It has been proven that Bush ordered planes to be provided to the bin Laden family to leave our country after the 9/11 attack in New York, along with an armed escort to ensure their safety. If Mr. Juve had been a Republican who had stood there at the podium here in Meredith and chose that particular ceremony to express his thoughts and “Rant and Rave” as has been described so disrespectfully of Mr. Juve, not a sound would have been heard of displeasure. This is America Mr. King and Mr. Kennely, not everyone thinks just like you. Stop trying to paint this rosy picture about Iraq and Afghanistan. Bring our troops home and stop trying to make every country in the world think just like we do. They have rights too. Carolyn Pillsbury Meredith

Sun letter writers to be featured at LRCC Constitution Day forum To the editor, On behalf of Lakes Region Community College, I would like to invite the public to attend our celebration of the United State Constitution on Wednesday, September 21, in the Bennett Library at noon. This event is sponsored by the Lakes Region Community College Student Senate and the Department of Arts and Sciences. We plan some exciting activities. This year, Constitution Day is on Saturday, September 17 and the College will be closed. Therefore, the college will have a “belated” birthday party for this timeless document on the following Wednesday, September 21. We will even have a birthday cake! This year, our Constitution Day activities will include a panel of three local and frequent writers to The Laconia Daily Sun discussing current constitutional issues. Russ Wiles will speak for the “right,” Steve Earle will represent the “middle,” and Lynn Chong will represent the “left.”

The event will be introduced by Dr. Scott Kalicki, LRCC’s new interim president. The panel discussion will be moderated by Jeff Murray, an academic counselor for the college who also holds a law degree. Dr. Murray will be asking the panel to discuss and debate two “major” constitutional questions: does the Constitution need a “balanced budget” amendment and, what constitutes a “marriage?” I want to thank our panel members in advance for their interest and participation. Lakes Region Community College is located at 379 Belmont Road (Rte. 106) in Laconia. The Bennett Library is located on the first floor of LRCC’s Turner (“Main”) Building. Again, the general public is invited. Questions will be entertained. And, there will be refreshments! E. Scott Cracraft Professor, History & Social Sciences Lakes Region Community College

LETTERS Look at plans & ask: Will this make America more self reliant? To the editor, I’m appalled at this idiotic partisan bickering, which is, to me, just another attempt by national politicians to micro-manage the economy. They don’t have the skills. It just doesn’t work. It would be much more useful if they could pass bipartisan legislation that promotes stability rather than uncertainty. It appears to me that the immediate problem is the Democrats who have become today’s “party of no”. (No ideas, no plans, no responsible leadership.) Right now they are caught defending their crumbling bastion against the onslaught of newly elected conservatives. The bankruptcy of the Democrats is crystal clear to the citizens in New York District 9, who just voted in Republican Bob Turner after 90 years of supporting Democrats 3 to 1; and likewise in a Nevada special election, where Republican Mark Amodei resoundingly beat Harry Reid’s protegee, Kate Marshall. The other thing I notice as the divide widens and reasonable compromise appears less and less likely, is the public crystallizing of opposite philosophies. The conservatives’ vision is to make Americans self-reliant and independent, always striving toward being individuals who are financially and socially responsible, and proud of it. The liberals seem to want Americans to become wards of the state, a position that subjugates them to the government, makes them less than human when the have to beg the government for handouts, and leads into the quagmire of more and

more dependency on the government. (That does, however, guarantee left wing politicians and bureaucrats jobs for life. Is this a conspiracy theory?) Keep in mind that these are ideological and philosophical differences, and that in practice politicians must and usually do converge toward a middle ground. That’s well and good, because that’s the way a republic works. However, regardless of how well a middleof-the-road government appears to be working, you always need a loyal opposition to make it continue to be responsive to all segments of the population. That’s not happening today. You can see what damage the outof-control liberal Democrat majority in Congress did during the last lame duck session. Now the conservatives are in the driver’s seat, and it’s payback time. It shouldn’t be that way. I’d vote for anyone who looks at a piece of socioeconomic legislation, and asks “Will this lead to making Americans more self-reliant?”. And that means for many years, not until the next presidential election. That’s why the president’s latest stimulus “plan” should rightly be scrapped. It doesn’t meet that criteria. It’s a bust. More of the same old same old. He and his liberal aides and cronies just don’t understand that. They just don’t get it. I think they live in a vacuum, and that vacuum is called “Washington”. Thank goodness for the common sense residing in the rest of America. John Lukens Gilmanton Iron Works

I am running for City Council in Ward 2 as a write-in candidate To the editor, Once again we are having a city election for council and mayor in Laconia with ward seats that have no opposing candidates for the positions that are up for election, and a lot of no candidates at all — because of a total lack of interest by the citizens of the city. If people do not like the way the city is being managed, then this is the time to stand up and be counted and volunteer their time and knowledge to make it better for all the residents and business and property owners of our city and run for office. I would have written sooner but the press was very mum about the date of the primary. The date was not announced until Saturday the 17th in the Laconia Citizen and The Daily Sun. A fancy campaign I feel is not required and a waste of money. By using the free press and a walk around the ward, talking with the people of

the ward, getting their input would work just fine and good exercise and a chance to meet them on their own turf instead of a stuffy hall. I know that it takes an open mind your personal time and effort to be a good councilor but being semi retired this will not be a problem. Having been an independent business owner for over 35 yrs. I have a good ideas of how to stretch a dollar to get maximum value out of it and stay out of the red. Most families in the city have to live on a budget and it is time the city does the same. I will be running foe the WARD 2 seat and I would appreciate your vote on Tuesday the 20th and if I am nominated and win in November will only serve two terms — then let the next man step in.

What they are really about is the termination of the pursuit of truth so that there are no voices left to halt the advance of the military-intelligence-industrial complex. The university is one of the few institutions that exists, despite its

Accused of beating attorney girlfriend, DiBasio determined to be his own lawyer By Gail OBer

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA — Peter DiBaiso is a small, wiry man made to look even smaller by the teal colored prison garb he was wearing in Judge James O’Neill’s Courtroom 1 last Thursday. With close-cropped bright red hair and accompanied by his latest “standby counsel” Atty. David Bownes, DiBiaso was in Superior Court for the first in a series of hearings for legal motions he filed himself, beginning in August. Accused of savagely beating his former girlfriend, who is an attorney with the N.H. Department of Justice, last January, DiBiaso has chosen to represent himself in his own criminal trial. DiBiaso allegedly assaulted Lucy Carrillo in her Alton home on January 27, 2011. Police responded to a dropped 9-1-1- call and initially charged DiBiaso with misdemeanor counts of obstructing the reporting of a crime and obstruction of government administration. But DiBiaso’s troubles didn’t begin there. In 2009 he was convicted of being a felon in possession of a dangerous weapon. He was sentenced to three-to-six years in prison most of which was suspended and he was placed on probation for two years. Because of the new Jan. 27 Alton misdemeanor charges, DiBiaso, facing a probation violation, was ordered held on $50,000 cash bail but when the two misdemeanor charges were dropped he was released. A temporary order of no contact was issued during

DiBiaso’s February appearance in Laconia District Court but, at that point, Carrillo had yet to report the alleged assault. When DiBiaso allegedly violated the February no contact order by sending Carrillo text messages, Carrillo contacted that Alton Police and the state ordered a hearing for bail revocation. DiBiaso had already left New Hampshire and when he failed to appear in N.H. 4th Circuit Court, Laconia Division for the hearing, Judge Jim Carroll issued a bench warrant for $5,000 cash. He was arrested by the Gulf Coast Fugitive Task Force in April of 2011 and returned to New Hampshire in June of 2011. In late March of 2011, the Belknap County Sheriff’s Department began an investigation into the alleged January 27 beating and in July of 2011 DiBiaso was indicted by a Belknap County grand jury for two felony second degree assaults, five simple assaults and one count of witness tampering. Further complicating the issue, DiBiaso is also charged with three counts of improper influence for what the Concord Monitor reported as three phone calls made in March of 2011 to employees of the Merrimack County Superior Court and the A.G.’s Office in an alleged attempt to discredit Carrillo. To date DiBiaso has had three lawyers. In June Public Defender Allison Schwartz was with him when he initially appeared in Laconia District Court after being extradited by federal marshals from Alabama. Atty. Ted Barnes took over and was with DiBiaso

in August in Belknap County Superior Court. That’s when DiBiaso first asked O’Neill to be allowed to represent himself. The Citizen reported in August that DiBiaso told O’Neill that he didn’t want Barnes to continue representing him and that Barnes, in response, had raised concerns about DiBiaso’s competency. In a written opinion issued in late August, O’Neill agreed that DiBiaso was capable of representing himself. At some point, Laconia Atty. David Bownes was asked to be DiBiaso’s standby counsel. According to legal definitions, standby counsel is there to act as a safety net to ensure DiBiaso gets a fair hearing of his claims. Bownes is also there to allow the trial to proceed without the delays that typically arise when a litigant represents himself. Bownes can also advise DiBiaso on procedural matters. Because of his self-representation, O’Neill began last Thursday’s hearing by re-asking a series of questions to determine if DiBiaso is capable of providing his own defense and still willing to be his own lawyer. “Do you recognize counsel could do a better job than perhaps you could?” O’Neill asked. “Probably yes,” replied DiBiaso. “You understand that this will be tried before a jury?” O’Neill asked. “Yes,” DiBiaso replied. O’Neill also reminded DiBiaso that he could change his mind about having a lawyer if he wanted to. On Thursday DiBiaso, two Rockingham County prosecutors, Tom and Christopher Reid, DiBiaso’s mother, O’Neill, two sheriff’s department guards and a reporter sat in the recently restored courtroom while they tried to sort through a series of motions filed by DiBiaso. DiBiaso’s motions are written on yellow legal paper with pens and pencils provided to him by the Belknap County Jail. Inmates rarely, if ever, have access to typewriters. An earlier motion he asked the court to transfer him to the N.H. State Prison where there is a bigger law library, but his request was denied. Among the things sought by DiBiaso through a discovery motion filed on Aug. 1 is some photographic evidence that he believes shows an unscathed Carrillo at a local bank the day after he allegedly assaulted her. He also filed a motion to not allow in three statements made by Alton Police on the night of the alleged assault and a third motion to recover some cell phone records and the details of a conversation that allegedly happened in the Attorney General’s offices. “I have made a request to the Attorney General to get that file and it is my intent to give any exculpatory evidence to the defense,” Reid said. see DIBIASO page 11

LETTERS Pay close attention, our sheriff has built an empire & it’s growing To the editor, I have been watching with apprehension Belknap County Sheriff Craig Wiggin attempt to take over policing in the Town of Barnstead by “his agency”. He is reported as saying he would try to hire most but not all of the Barnstead Department’s full-time staff into the sheriff’s department. I also understood the Belknap County’s “Sheriff Department” has been doing part-time policing in other municipalities in Belknap County. The question that came to mind is how is this possible? Can sheriff deputies be doing local “policing” in the first place using county vehicles? Are the deputies working on regular hour, overtime or off-duty paid by the municipality directly? Is the money funneled through the county’s general fund to increase pensions? I was also aware of other county selective municipal police departments that automatically transfer after hour calls to the sheriff’s department 24/7 dispatch. Why are dispatchers working 24/7? Is the cost absorbed by the sheriff’s department? Are the towns billed weekly, monthly or annually? What is the composition of the bill/invoice for service rendered; per call, per event or by the hour? What is the TOTAL cost of employment for employees including equipment involved? I attempted to discover what N.H. laws said about a sheriff’s department or sheriff and sheriff deputies. My search resulted in the following applicable laws: RSA 104, Sections 104:1 104:3, 104:3-a, 104:3-e, 104:4 - 104:31, 104:31-a, 104:32 - 104:35. The result to date is that in any county in which the county convention establishes the office of deputy sheriff, the sheriff may appoint such number of deputy sheriffs, including a

chief deputy sheriff, within the limits of the funds that may be appropriated for this purpose. In addition, he may appoint such special deputy sheriffs as he shall from time to time require. Such special deputy sheriffs shall receive as compensation for their services the fees as provided in RSA 104:31. A sheriff may appoint a special deputy for the service and return of any process, by warrant indorsed thereon, in the manner heretofore practiced. The sheriff and the sheriff’s deputies shall serve and execute all writs and other precepts directed to the sheriff’s department and issued from lawful authority. 2. The sheriff and the sheriff’s deputies and bailiffs shall perform the duties of crier of the court. 3. The sheriff’s bailiffs shall provide adequate security in all state courts, except the Supreme Court. I found no reference to private paid or off-duty work cited under “Fees of Sheriffs and Deputy Sheriffs” – Services. If no legislation allows a sheriff’s department or its sheriff to encompass anything over and above what the laws list, how can any one of the 11 county municipalities, state, or federal grant money be used to EXPAND the dispatch center and increase the number of dispatch terminals for purposes not allowed? Moreover, how are the members of the Special Operations Group paid? The appropriation is $10,000, last year was $15,000 and it previously spent as much as $22,750.00. Where did the money come from, taxpayers or other? Pay close attention taxpayer, a POWER “empire” has been built and is expanding. Thomas A. Tardif Laconia

Leftist values are ﬂawed & will lead to slow descent to dark age To the editor, More bad news again this week for the green movement, Obama administration and Democrats. Solyndra the bright light which was to lead us to prosperity went belly up. Oops! Well as I have been saying for years now the green solution doesn’t exist yet except in the wishful thinking of the gullible. Billions of private and public money has been dumped into research starting in the 70s and through until today without any meaningful breakthroughs or competitive cost reductions. Bottom line, IT DOESN’T MAKE SENSE ! Still the president and vise president pushed the loan through in spite of warnings that it was a bad loan. Anthony Wiener’s seat in a Democratic hot spot elected a Republican and it wasn’t even close. Guess most of those Jewish Democrats there don’t think much of the president’s tone toward Israel. Ya’ think! Looks like a case of the gang that couldn’t shoot straight down in D.C. One of his largest constituencies and Obama plays patty cakes with Palestinian terrorists backing them, not Israel. Smart! As for the president’s new plan to create jobs? Been there, done that!

the incompetents in Washington and forget this failed. No, wait, we need to remember Obama’s failure because it is the failure of socialism. Nothing of value comes free or easy as the left would have people believe. Their promises of something for nothing are as hollow as the heads of those who believe them. We need a president and Congress who recognize that American free enterprise has been the engine which raised more people out of poverty, gave more freedom and independence to those here and around the world then any other system in the history of humanity. It can be again if we take the lessons learned to heart. The values of those on the left are critically flawed and will lead them and us into a slow decent into a new dark age. Believe it! We can see it every day happening in our schools, in unemployment rates in black communities. Those on the left have no compassion for the poor, they exploit them. They offer them the easy, something for nothing solution. Just vote in the left wing candidates (who will see to it that you, your children, and generations unborn will continue to live in poverty generation after gensee next page

Like saying the sun is square but I should research it just in case To the editor, Jack’s back! As usual, Mr. Stephenson’s so called rebuttal is full of bluster but short on specifics. Jack’s latest disagreement with me comes after I told Gene Danforth that his claim was ridiculous. Mr Danforth claimed that 72-percent of every dollar spent on social programs goes to overhead. Jack claims “Why doesn’t James look at actual government numbers, before attacking Gene by saying James doesn’t believe a word of it? His ignorance, or unwillingness to do the basic research, doesn’t change facts. I trust that Gene, a brilliant writer, will respond to James.” I did check for the actual specifics but it really wasn’t necessary because Mr. Danforth’s claim is like saying the Sun is square but I should resarch it just to make sure. If Jack would learn how to use the Internet he would know that I do follow up posts to most of my letters. You can’t click on a newspaper to check sources. You should check the Internet version of this newspaper once in a while. The followup is at the site of the original letter at http://www.laconiadailysun. com/story/james-veverka-9-2. I also followed up Jack’s latest letter on the Internet. So the figures are there for all to see. Here are some examples from http://institute.ourfuture.org/files/ Jacob_Hacker_Public_Plan_Choice. pdf: “the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has found that administrative costs under the public Medicare plan are less than 2-percent of expenditures, compared with approximately 11-percent of spending by private

plans under Medicare Advantage. . . . . . A recent General Accounting Office report found that in 2006 Medicare Advantage plans spent 83.3-percent of their revenue on medical expenses, with 10.1-percent going to non-medical expenses and 6.6-percent to profits — a 16.7-percent administrative share. . . . . . The experience of private plans within FEHBP carries the same conclusion. Under FEHBP, the administrative costs of Preferred Provider Organizations (PPOs) average 7 percent, not counting the costs of federal agencies to administer enrollment of employees. Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs) participating in FEHBP have administrative costs of 10 to 12-percent. In international perspective, the United States spends nearly six times as much per capita on health care administration as the average for Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) nations. Nearly all of this discrepancy is due to the sales, marketing, and underwriting activities of our highly fragmented framework of private insurance, with its diverse billing and review practices.” The Congressional Budget Office. These facts are also contained in Paul Krugman’s article on adminstrative costs at http://krugman.blogs.nytimes. com/2009/07/06/administrative-costs/. Krugman is the 2008 winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics.

Nearly every week I read in this paper how one lefty or another accuses Fox News of telling lie after lie but when challenged can’t back up their claim. Every week they clam the Tea Party is racist but can’t sup-

Party are radicals because they want a smaller, less intrusive government in Washington and sound, fair laws and regulations based on the Constitution of the United States. The left wants just the opposite so who’s radical in this picture? The left, that’s who. Vote Obama and his supporters out in Nov. 2012 Steve Earle Hill

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Tuesday, September 20, 2011— Page 11

from preceding page index.html This is a government site. Now if Mr. Stephenson and Mr. Danforth have something to refute these numbers from the CBO, give ‘em up! Otherwise, take some of your own medicine and do some research AND present the sources so people can check to see if you’ve done your homework. As I have said before, the right wing noise machine is not good at facts but is great at hyperbole at a distorted volume. If you have any intellectual honesty, you just have to admit your errors.

And as far as his rant on Obama’s citizenship goes, that is also ridiculous. Mr. Stephenson can post all his links to his bizarre and crazy conspiracy theory on the Internet site of his letter for all to see. I await his posting of his sources at his letter’s internet page but I won’t hold my breath. I know these right wingers well. I challenge all right wingers to debate me on the Internet, too.

New Hampshire to deal with the two pending probation violations. At that point, Bownes turned off the microphone and spoke privately with DiBiaso for a few minutes. “Mr. Bownes has given me some pretty good advise,” said DiBiaso after the consultation. “I have a tough situation.” He said that while everything in his bail motion was true he allowed that it may have been “imperfectly written.” “Do you wish to supplement your motion?” O’Neill asked him. “I’m sorry I’m taking up your time,” DiBiaso said to O’Neill. “Don’t apologize. Do you want more time to write up the bail order?” O’Neill asked again. “Mr. Reid is prepared to discuss bail today.” Reid told O’Neill that now that Bownes was standby counsel for DiBiaso it would be his desire to have his team meet privately with Bownes and DiBiaso. “Please instruct us to confer now and see if some agreements can be reached,” Reid asked. “But I filed these motions for a reason,” said DiBiaso to O’Neill. “My hope is that he files new ones,” Reid said. O’Neill said he wasn’t going to make DiBiaso refile his motions but said he would allow Dibiaso, Bownes, the two Reids, and DiBiaso’s mother to meet in the court room as long as security was there and there was no contact. As of Monday, the entire file is still with Judge O’Neill and any agreements or arrangements made during the private conference are unknown. DiBiaso remains in Belknap County Jail. In addition, three complaints filed against DiBiaso in Merrimack County allege he attempted to influence an employee of the Merrimack County Superior Court who is a friend of Carrillos. “When you’re charged with something you should get discovery,” DiBiaso said to O’Neill.

DIBIASO from page 8 O’Neill explained to DiBiaso that the prosecution was required to give him anything that could help him prove his innocence. DiBiaso has also made a discovery motion to get Carrillo’s employment files from the A.G.’s Office. “I’m not sure personnel records are discoverable,” Reid said, noting he has asked for records of everything regarding the A.G.’s role in the case including interviews, notes and summary statements. DiBiaso also filed a motion to continue his trial date. He told O’Neill that he needs more time and Reid said if DiBiaso agreed to waive speedy trial provisions for the new charges he would agree to a continuation. “What about the probation violation?” asked O’Neill referring to the separate hearing scheduled for Oct. 27. “What’s your position on that?” he asked Reid. Reid said he would object as a “matter of policy” because the issue of probation violations was not as complex as the trial. Bownes stepped in and said the probation violation hearing of Oct. 27 was essentially about the same conduct as is the trial. “I don’t think Mr. DiBiaso has enough time to get ready for the underlying probation violations,” Bownes said. “There’s a lot of discovery. A lot of work to do.” “You understand it could go into 2012,” O’Neill said to DiBiaso who nodded in understanding. There was also some discussion as to DiBiaso’s bail and whether Carroll’s June order of $50,000 cash only or Merrimack County Superior Court Judge Kenneth McHugh August “no bail” order was in place. Dibiaso said he understood he was released from bail on the two initial probation violations but “a little birdie” told him he was about to be served for sending text messages to Carrillo. He said he “got real apprehensive” and went to Knoxville, Tenn. which meant he couldn’t return to

Maurice and Rosemary Poudrier is their Laconia home. (Laconia Daily Sun photo/Adam Drapcho)

RESCUE from page one as a woman and a group of children swam toward a submerged sandbar, not realizing the danger they were soon to encounter. Thinking back on the ordeal, in which Maurice Poudrier of White Oaks Road saved four children and a woman who were less than a minute short of being swept into the open ocean, he feels certain that a supernatural force was guiding him to safety. On August 14, a day that featured boiling summer heat, Maurice and Rosemary Poudrier decided to spend a day at the seaside of Wells, Maine. Because they wouldn’t be able to arrive until the town’s main beach was filled, they went to a little-known beach on the other side of the jetty, where they could find enough sand to set a pair of chairs and have access to a river that soon empties into the ocean. A naturally talkative couple, the Poudriers got chatty with their beach neighbors, which included a woman who brought her two children and another woman who brought two children she was baby sitting.

Seeking refuge from the heat, the children splashed in the water and collected crabs in their buckets. The mother they sat next to was petrified of water, so the other woman, the babysitter, watched the children as they waded. The tide was going out and the babysitter, who was familiar with the beach and river, knew of a sandbar that would soon be revealed in the middle of the river. With consent of the mother, the woman swam out toward the sandbar with the four children, who were aged between seven and 10. The children were wearing inflatable devices on their arms and around their waists, but Maurice noted that they were of the toy kind, and not those intended to save lives. The one dependable flotation device among them was a boogie board. As the group headed out toward where the sand bar would appear – it was now visible beneath the water – the Poudriers watched.

from preceding page marine construction, Maurice knew that situations involving water, especially moving water, can go from mundane to tragic with little warning. Despite the babysitter’s attempts to keep the group together, a child would break loose from the group and be caught by the current. Each time this happened, the babysitter would swim to catch the child and then return to the group. “I said, Maurice, I don’t like this,” recalled Rosemary. The group had swam out to where the sandbar would appear, only to find that they were several minutes early and the water was still too deep to stand. After a couple of minutes, the current had brought the group downstream of the sandbar and slowly was bringing the group toward the jetty, where the river narrows just before passing through the jetty and emptying into the ocean. “I could just see this unfolding,” said Maurice. After conferring with the nervous mother, who couldn’t swim, Maurice stepped into the water to help the group return to shore. Aided by the current, he quickly reached the children and the woman, who still didn’t realize the danger they were all in. With all the children, and soon the tired babysitter, clinging to the boogie board, Maurice began to swim, dragging the group back to the beach. However, the 68 year-old Maurice found that the current and the weight of the group was too great for him. The group was now about 300 feet downstream of where they initially went into the water. For every three strokes forward, he said, the current brought him five feet backward. “I told myself, this isn’t working out,” he said, and began to head directly toward the seagrass-covered bank nearest the group. “It was like the tide was keeping him at one point,” recalled Rosemary, whose bad knee prevented her from providing assistance. After several minutes of trying to drag four children and an adult woman through the current, Maurice’s strength was fading quickly. Should he lose the fight, the current would move them further downstream. He knew that the river, which serves as the outlet for a large estuary, would only increase in speed as it passed through the narrow mouth by the jetty, beyond which their chances of rescue would be dismal.

“At that point, I told myself, I’ve only got one shot at this. Head for the shore and swim like hell,” Maurice said. His efforts were successful. He got the group close enough that they were able to swim the final distance to land. Maurice, however, was exhausted from the ordeal. Grasping the boogie board, he attempted to stand. Although he was just several feet from a part of the river where people were wading, the part of the river beneath him was several feet deeper. His grip on the board loosened and he sank. He recovered, only to slip again into the water. “The second time I went under, I said, I’m not coming back up,” Maurice said. “Next thing I know, I’m standing in water chest-high.” After returning to his beach chair to rest, Maurice reflected on his survival. “How did I get from going under for the second time and got to where I was walking out? Someone must have pushed me, I had no strength left,” he said. “When I went under, I was not coming back.” Just then he looked back at the water where he exited the water – though the tide was flowing out, on the short stretch of beach there were waves breaking in. “I have never seen the water splashing up on the beach when the tide was going out,” he said. Just then he as he saw the current reversed, it turned back and headed out with the rest of the river. Maurice thought about his deceased mother’s crucifix, which only that morning he had glued to his car’s dashboard. He also thought about his motherin-law, with whom he spent 29 days in February before she died. He is convinced their spirits influenced the river’s current and pushed him to safely. “I think that the crucifix came into play,” he said. Referring to his mother, he said, “I saw her that day. And I think my mother-in-law, too.” The children, finally understanding the gravity of the experience, came up to Maurice. “Thank-you Mr. Lifeguard,” they said. He reached into his pocket and produced state quarters, which he gave to them. He told them they were lucky quarters, about how his brotherin-law has an advertising firm and how his lucky quarter helped win an account with Oakhurst Dairy. That story led to further coincidence. The mother of the two children was likely too shocked to make the connection at the moment, but later she realized see next page

Lake Winona no wake order lifted State posts schedule of lake drawdowns

CENTER HARBOR & NEW HAMPTON — The New Hampshire Marine Patrol last Friday lifted the no wake order on Lake Winona restrict-

ing boats to headway speed. The rainfall earlier this month raised the level of the lake to 541 feet, a foot above its normal operating level.

MEREDITH from page one ing funds. Unnumbered state roads are maintained by state between April and November and by the town in the winter. Mike Faller, director of Public Works, explained that winter maintenance amounts to plowing, though he said that his department will undertake minor repairs rather than expect DOT to send a crew. Noting that DOT is responsible for maintaining the road, Colette Worsman, who chairs the board, asked “what is your plan for that road for the next 12 months?” Mark Morrill, the engineer for District 3, answered that no maintenance or resurfacing is scheduled for Meredith Neck Road.

Faller stressed the importance of reestablishing the ditches alongside the road to minimize the damage from the water and suggested a limited project to ditch and pave the road in the next one or two years, which he said would “buy time and reduce complaints” “We’ll see,” Morrill replied. NOTE: The selectmen looked askance on an offer from the New Hampshire Department of Transportation (DOT) to purchase a 2.5-acre landlocked parcel north of Boynton Road. The state acquired the land in 1951 and used it for “maintenance purposes.” The property has been offered to abutters by a sealed process with a reserve price of $14,300.

A few days later, Rosemary received a call from her sister, whose husband owned the advertising agency and employed the woman who brought her children to the beach.

Rosemary’s sister asked, “Did Maurice save some kids this weekend?” For the Poudriers, the experience was more than luck or coincidence. They believe their day at the beach was overseen and influenced by supernatural forces. “If you have faith, you believe these things,” added Rosemary.

CONCORD — The New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services announced the schedule for the annual drawdown of lakes to reduce damage to shoreline properties from ice in the winter and flooding in the spring. The extent of the drawdowns are not from the currents levels of the lakes but from their normal full pond levels. Therefore, the depth and date of the drawdowns vary and could be affected by the amount of rainfall. However, in Barnstead the drawdown on Upper Suncook Lake and Lower Suncook Lake, where the level will be lowered five feet. will begin on Saturday, October 1 when the discharge at the Suncook Lake Dam is raised to 250 cubic feet per second (cfs) to provide high water for canoeists and kayakers on the Suncook Rover downstream. Sunset Lake in Alton, Branstead Parade in Barnstead and Crystal Lakes in Gilmanton — all on the Suncook River — will be drawn down seven feet, 1.5 feet and three feet

respectively beginning on October 10. In Gilmanton, Sawyer Laker will be lowered three feet and Shellcamp Pond two feet starting on October 10. In Meredith, Lake Waukewan will be lowered 1.5 feet from its summer operating level of 540 feet to 538.5 feet as part of the operating plan adopted earlier this year starting on Columbus Day. The plan calls for the lake to be returned to 540 feet by May 15. Lake Winnipesaukee is not drawn down, but each year on Columbus Day the discharge at the Lakeport Dam is reduced from its normal minimum of 250 cfs to between 30 cfs and 50 cfs to allow from maintenance of the dams and hydro-electric stations downstream on the Winnipesaukee River. Likewise, this year the discharge at Lochmere Dam will be reduced to 50 cfs, causing the level of Silver Lake to drop approximately 1.2 feet. Lake Opechee and Lake Winnisquam are drawn down five feet and two feet respectively for about two weeks only in even-numbered years. — Michael Kitch

LACONIA — The man who allegedly cut off his ankle monitoring bracelet in Manchester and fled the state was ordered held on $10,000 cash-only bail yesterday afternoon. David Halterman, who was taken into custody by the New Jersey Port Authority Police after being found on a bus, was returned to New Hampshire over the weekend. He is charged with one new count of escape. Halterman has three prior convictions for forgery, escape and disobeying a police officer — all in 2009.

In July he was incarcerated at the Belknap County Jail on an alleged probation violation. Initially held on $5,000 cash only, Halterman was released on $5,000 personal recognizance bail with the stipulation that he wear a monitoring bracelet. According to the motion filed by his lawyer his bail was switched from cash to personal recognizance because he was being treated for some ongoing medial issues. On Sept. 9 while in Manchester, police said he removed his bracelet and got on a Trailways bus.

Halterman held on $10,000 cash bail

Belmont man charged with pointing pistol at houseguests

BELMONT — A local man faces two counts of felony criminal threatening after allegedly pointing a firearm in two people’s faces while intoxicated early Monday morning. Frederick Watson, 39, of 30 Sunset Drive was taken into protective custody and following his arraignment in Laconia District Court yesterday was remanded to the Belknap County Jail in lieu of $10,000 cash bail. According to police, officers went to Watson’s home at around 1:15 a.m. in response to a report that a man was threatening others with a gun. Police recovered a handgun and, finding Watson intoxicated, took him into custody. Two people told police that they feared for their safety when Watson, who is currently on probation, pointed the pistol at them. BISHOP from page 3 Before being named bishop of Manchester in 1998, McCormack served as a top aide to Cardinal Bernard Law in Boston. When the clergy sex abuse scandal erupted there in 2002, victims and grass roots Catholic groups called on McCormack to resign in New Hampshire, citing his role in investigation misconduct charges in Boston. Also in 2002, the Diocese of Manchester averted unprecedented criminal charges by agreeing that it had harmed children by moving abusive priests from parish to parish. It promised to

enact strict child protection policies and opened the diocese to audits by the state attorney general’s office. Libasci said addressing any lingering harm from the scandal will be an important part of his new position. “The most important thing right off the bat is the compassion, and the desire to heal. To help restore and heal and rebuild individual lives, family lives, life of the church, life of the community,” he said.

TAXES from page 2 The new proposal also inserts the president’s voice into the legislative discussions of a joint congressional “supercommittee” charged with recommending deficit reductions of up to $1.5 trillion. Defending his emphasis on new taxes rather than only spending reductions, Obama said: “We can’t just cut our way out of this hole.” The Republican reaction was swift and bluntly dismissive. “Veto threats, a massive tax hike, phantom savings and punting on entitlement reform is not a recipe for economic or job growth_or even meaningful deficit reduction,” said Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell. “The good news is that the Joint Committee is taking this issue far more seriously than the White House.” The president announced his deficit reduction plan in a 20-minute speech from the Rose Garden at the White House. But even as he called for Congress to act and tackle the nation’s escalating debt, he gave greater urgency to his separate, short-term jobs proposal. “I’m ready to sign a bill,” he said. “I’ve got the pens all ready.” BIKERS from page 2 cal examiner to determine if the cause of death. Clarksville police spokesman Jim Knoll identified the dead as 38-year-old James Franklin Wall II; 39-year-old Timothy Bryan Stone; 32-year-old Allison Elizabeth Bagwell-Wyatt; and a married couple, Jonathan Michael Over and Kathryn Elizabeth Over, both 27. All were from Clarksville. Family and friends gathered Monday at Timothy Stone’s home in Clarksville to remember the father of three. Buford Stone, Timothy’s father, said his son could fix anything, from cars and motorcycles to computers and electronics. Stone said his son worked with James Wall doing home construction and was drawn to the motorcycle group for its charity work. Tyler Stone, Timothy’s 18-year-old son, said his dad loved his 2009 Harley-Davidson motorcycle, which will be part of a motorcycle procession scheduled for his funeral services this week. “The thing I’ll miss the most is sitting out on the front porch with him talking at night,” his son said. The camper where the victims were staying was rented from nearby Fort Campbell, Ky., post spokesman Rick Rzepka said. Keele said many of the trailers for the event are rented from Fort Campbell and as many as twothirds of their members are veterans. Langford said it appeared that a small storage hatch on the RV did not close properly, allowing fumes from the generator to leak inside the vehicle. The gases were so bad in the camper that the bikers who found the bodies were taken to a hospital after feeling dizzy and light-headed, Langford said. Clarksville police said carbon monoxide readings inside the trailer were as high as 438 parts per million. Permissible limits for carbon monoxide are 35 ppm averaged over eight hours with a 200 ppm ceiling limit, according to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health. from preceding page University of New Hampshire, said while McCormack’s legacy has been somewhat tainted by the scandal, in many respects, most Catholics seem to have moved beyond it. She said Libasci’s challenges include revitalizing the participation of Catholics in the church, finding resources to help the poor across the diocese and knitting together new parish communities formed during the closing or consolidation of churches. But before he can do any of that, he needs to learn about the state, she said. “I think the first thing that Bishop Libasci will need to do is really get out there and get to know the people of New Hampshire,” she said. “The best way he can really establish credibility for himself and inspire confidence in his leadership and trust in his leadership is to really visit as many of these parishes as possible and see for himself what the issues are, rather than staying within the confines of the diocesan offices.”

Red Sox salvage split with O’s; wild card lead at 2 BOSTON (AP) — Jacoby Ellsbury hit an insidethe-park homer and Conor Jackson added a grand slam to cap a much-needed offensive outburst that helped the Boston Red Sox split their doubleheader with the Baltimore Orioles on Monday and stop, for now, their slide in the AL wild-card race. The Red Sox won the late game 18-9 after losing the opener 6-5 for their 12th loss in 15 games, trimming their lead over Tampa Bay to 1½ games in the chase for the wild card. The Rays were idle, with a four-game series against the New York Yankees starting Tuesday. Night game starter John Lackey fell behind 3-0, but the Red Sox took a 4-2 lead after one, made it 6-3 in the second and 11-5 after three innings. Then Lackey gave up another run in the fourth and two more in the fifth before Scott Atchison (1-0) came on for a one-pitch double play to end the inning. In all, Atchison pitched to three batters and got two double plays, while also dropping a throw covering first for an error. Orioles starter Brian Matusz (1-8) got just five outs, allowing six runs and six hits. Boston slugger Adrian Gonzalez reached base seven straight times in the doubleheader, Marco

Scutaro had six hits and Dustin Pedroia drove in five runs on the day. Jed Lowrie hit a three-run homer in the nightcap that erased the early deficit and gave the Red Sox the lead for good. But Lackey still couldn’t get through the fifth. He has allowed 25 earned runs in 24 2-3 innings in his last five starts, with three losses and two no-decisions. The Red Sox eliminated any doubt with seven runs in the seventh, the first when Ellsbury hit a long fly ball that bounced off the railing of the Red Sox bullpen wall in right-center and caromed toward left field. Two fielders gave chase, but Ellsbury circled the bases and scored standing up. The next five batters reached safely before Jackson homered over the Green Monster to make it 18-9. Jeremy Guthrie (9-17) pitched the last-place Orioles to the win in the day game. Robert Andino and Nolan Reimold hit back-to-back homers into the Green Monster seats off Kyle Weiland (0-3) as the Orioles, who had been outscored 40-20 at Fenway Park this year, won in Boston for the first time in six games. The Red Sox have six games remaining against Baltimore and three in New York against the Yankees. The Rays have 10 to play, seven of them against the Yankees.

Rivera sets MLB record with 602nd career save

NEW YORK (AP) — Mariano Rivera stood by himself, in the center of the diamond at Yankee Stadium. For once, the great closer wasn’t sure what to do next. So he smiled, blew a kiss to the crowd, and then doffed his cap as cheers washed over him following the record 602nd save of his career. “Oh, my God, for the first time in my career, I’m on the mound alone,” Rivera said. “It was priceless. I didn’t know it could be like that.”

Rivera pitched a perfect ninth inning, striking out Chris Parmelee on what appeared to be his signature cut fastball to end the New York Yankees’ 6-4 win over the Minnesota Twins on Monday. Fans from the smallest crowd in the Stadium’s three-year history stood and shouted from Rivera’s first pitch to his last as he retired Trevor Plouffe, Michael Cuddyer and Parmelee in order and broke Trevor Hoffman’s mark.

Gunstock preservation society looking for weathervane GILFORD — Shortly after the formation of the Gunstock Mountain Historic Preservation Society in December 2009, the board of directors began to work on a design for the organization’s logo. With fate giving a push in the right direction, it didn’t take long for the perfect logo to be created. At the time, Gunstock Area Commissioner Bob Durfee had been working to organize and categorize the hundreds of historic blueprints that were rolled up and stored in the attic of the main lodge at Gunstock Mountain Resort. He was also trying to determine if all the items represented in the blueprints had been constructed. The prints offer a visual history of some of Gunstock’s original structures, including the ski jumps, the main lodge and smaller items such as doors, fireplace andirons, signs, and one which shows the design of a weathervane for the top of the then 60-meter ski jump. During one of the first board meetings held by the preservation society, the blueprint showing the ski jumper weathervane became a topic of discussion, and once members of the board had a chance to view the print, a quick decision was made to incorporate that design into the organization’s logo. It became a mission for members of the society to find out if the weathervane had actually been made. Through interviews, and through photographs and old films in Gunstock’s archives, it was determined that not only had the weathervane been created, it proudly sat high atop the start house of the 60-meter jump during the very first championship meet held there on February 28, 1937. Over time, the ski jumper that faithfully showed the direction of the wind was something that became difficult for collectors to ignore. The weathervane disappeared a few times, only to mysteriously reappear and be returned to the top of the jump. The start house of the big jump was permanently removed in 1976 and at that point, the weathervane no longer had a place to call home, and its fate is unknown. Rumors have hinted at possible new locations, but to date, the weathervane has not been found. The organization’s members are trying to learn

the location of the long lost weathervane or whether it is still in existence. Although the weathervane can be duplicated, nothing can ever take the place of the original.

OBITUARY

Vivian M. Walker, 84

FRANKLIN — Vivian Mary (Kalled) Walker, born in Nashua, February 9, 1927, died on September 15, 2011 at the Peabody Home in Franklin, NH. She and her husband James lived in Tilton for many years. Vivian was well known for her longtime business, Vivians Dress Shop, on West Pearl Street in downtown Nashua. Many Nashua, and area women, some very well known, depended on Vivian for their clothing needs. She had a keen sense for what looked good on what person and a thorough knowledge of quality garments and where to get them. She is also remembered for her dedication for keeping her business open and being available for personal attention for customers throughout her career of nearly sixty years. She is responsible for her family owning two major business blocks on West Pearl Street in Nashua.

Vivian is survived by her husband of forty nine years, James, their son Phillip, four grandchildren and one surviving sister, Genevieve of New York City. Private burial will be at the North Dunbarton Cemetery in Dunbarton, NH. There will be no calling hours and donations or flowers are not requested. If asked how best to honor her memory, Vivian would have said, “shop downtown Nashua, especially West Pearl Street.” Rest peacefully Vivian. A Time of Remembrance will be held for Vivian Saturday, September 24th at 3:00 PM at the City Room Café, 105 West Pearl St, in Nashua. Arrangements are under the care of the William F. Smart Sr. Memorial Home of Tilton. For more information go to www. smartfuneralhome.com

GILFORD — The Carter Mountain Brass Band, under the direction of John F. Beyrent, will present a concert on Saturday, September 24 at 7:30 p.m. at the First United Methodist Church of Gilford-Laconia on Gilford Avenue. The church is celebrating their 150th year in the Lakes Region. One of the church’s missions to the community is to offer a meeting space for

community groups. Carter Mountain Brass Band rehearses regularly at the church and offers the concert as a thank you for the use of their space. Donations will be accepted at the door for the church. The concert will celebrate the church’s anniversary through popular music of the last 150 years as well as arrangements of well known hymns that are used in all faith traditions.

LACONIA — Scottish Country Dance classes will begin Sunday, September 25 on the third floor of the Historic Belknap Mill. Dance class will be held Sunday evenings (except holidays) from 5:30-7:30 p.m. Susan Haines of Loudon, certified teacher the Royal Scottish Country Dance Society, will be leading the classes. Susan has been dancing since 1981. In 1992 she earned the preliminary certificate through the Teachers’ Association of Canada, a rigorous two weeks of dancing, teaching, and examinations. She has been a guest teacher in the Nashua and Seacoast classes and was the primary teacher in Center Sandwich. Susan says, “I really enjoy teaching beginner or less experienced dancers and watching their transformation as they realize they have learned the ‘language of dance.’ “ Susan has designed dance programs for many prestige events such as Pinewoods and New Hampshire Highlands games.

The Royal Scottish Country Dance Society was founded in 1923 to promote, publish, and teach the traditional social dances of Scotland. It has set standards for style, figures and dances, so Scottish country dancing is the same around the world. Dancers enjoy the lively beat of jigs, reels, and hornpipes, and to the elegant strathspey, unique to Scottish music. Many of these dances derive from traditional sources, but a lot have been devised in the fairly recent past. This fusion of the traditional and the modern as well as its ongoing evolution are part of the attraction of Scottish country dancing. “You do not need to be Scottish, wear the kilt, or even speak English to enjoy Scottish country dancing.” said Janet Simmon, the originator of the Belknap Mill’s new program. She said that new dancers are encouraged to join at any time and partners are not needed. For information contact the Mill or Janet at scd_md@yahoo.com.

DAILY CROSSWORD TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

by Paul Gilligan

by Darby Conley

Get Fuzzy

By Holiday Mathis once you dedicate your time and attention to the project. The essence of order is time management. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Small problems are temporary. However, they still must be addressed. They won’t go away on their own. If left to do their own devices, they will grow strong, blossom and propagate. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Foolishness and creativity are fine bedfellows. Knowing this, you can take part in a creative process without the fear of appearing foolish, since it’s pretty much a given that will happen. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You are, to a greater extent than usual, socially driven. Knowing that your friends are watching you, you’ll want to achieve higher and more interesting goals. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Winners take responsibility for the wins and the losses. That is because if you don’t take responsibility for the loss, you’ll never learn enough to get to the win. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You care about appearances and will keep them up even when doing so comes at a hefty cost to you. Later, you’ll be glad you made the effort. Acting as though everything is going well might actually make it so. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 20). Your strength comes from beyond. Relationships feed your soul through the next 10 weeks. You throw out the scorecard and enjoy seamless give and take. November brings an ideal working dynamic. You’ll partner with a wonderful contributor in December. January and July are windfall months. Aquarius and Capricorn people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 20, 45, 3, 22 and 29.

by Chad Carpenter

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You know immediately when you’re clicking with someone. You can tell because you’ve experienced excellent rapport so many times before and you recognize the signs. Be patient with one less socially experienced. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Whilst trying to make your way up a social or political ladder, you will stop and realize ... there is no ladder. No one is on top. Everyone is on an equal level. Therefore, “climbing” is as unnecessary as it is nonsensical. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Hindsight is unrealistic. Then again, it’s a more rounded perspective than the one you get when you’re actually in the situation. As you look back on what happened, strive for a balanced and unsentimental view. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Limited knowledge is not always imparted with limited words. If you’re not careful, you could get caught up in a conversation that seems to wind on forever, despite a lack of real content. Guard your time -- it’s precious. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You won’t be given all of the information you need to do a job well. You’ll have to fill in the blanks, or move past the gaps and come back to them later. If you can be patient with this process, the results will be brilliant. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Funny people are usually quite popular. You’ll find yourself in both categories today as you laugh and kid among friends. The best part is that you won’t even have to make an effort. Your natural reactions have humor in them. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll make a clean sweep of a chronically cluttered part of your world. It’s easy

––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Tuesday, Sept. 20, the 263rd day of 2011. There are 102 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Sept. 20, 1911, the British liner RMS Olympic collided with the Royal Navy cruiser HMS Hawke off the Isle of Wight; although seriously damaged, the Olympic was able to return to Southampton under its own power. On this date: In 1519, Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan and his crew set out from Spain on five ships to find a western passage to the Spice Islands. (Magellan was killed enroute, but one of his ships eventually circled the world.) In 1870, Italian troops took control of the Papal States, leading to the unification of Italy. In 1873, panic swept the floor of the New York Stock Exchange in the wake of railroad bond defaults and bank failures. In 1884, the National Equal Rights Party was formed during a convention of suffragists in San Francisco; the convention nominated Belva Ann Bennett Lockwood for president. In 1947, former New York City Mayor Fiorello La Guardia died. In 1958, Martin Luther King Jr. was seriously wounded during a book signing at a New York City department store when Izola Curry stabbed him in the chest. (Curry was later found mentally incompetent.) In 1962, black student James Meredith was blocked from enrolling at the University of Mississippi by Gov. Ross R. Barnett. (Meredith was later admitted.) In 1973, in their so-called “battle of the sexes,” tennis star Billie Jean King defeated Bobby Riggs in straight sets, 6-4, 6-3, 6-3, at the Houston Astrodome. In 1979, Jean-Bedel Bokassa (boh-KAH’sah), self-styled head of the Central African Empire, was overthrown in a French-supported coup while on a visit to Libya. One year ago: The United Nations opened a three-day summit to assess members’ progress in the decade since promising to end global poverty. Today’s Birthdays: Singer Gogi Grant is 87. Actress-comedian Anne Meara is 82. Actress Sophia Loren is 77. Pro Football Hall of Famer Jim Taylor is 76. Rock musician Chuck Panozzo is 64. Hockey Hall of Famer Guy LaFleur is 60. Actress Debbi Morgan is 60. Jazz musician Peter White is 57. Actress Betsy Brantley is 56. Actor Gary Cole is 55. TV news correspondent Deborah Roberts is 51. Rock musician Randy Bradbury (Pennywise) is 47. Actress Kristen Johnston is 44. Rock singers Matthew Nelson and Gunnar Nelson are 44. Rock musician Ben Shepherd is 43.

Cowcello First Annual Organic Groovefest to rock the ‘Brook Sept. 25

GILFORD — Cowcello, an organic groovefest, will make its debut appearance Sunday, September 25 as part of the Eastern Propane Concert Series at the Meadowbrook U.S. Cellular Pavilion.

LACONIA PUBLIC LIBRARY

Presented by the Meadowbrook in coordination with EARTHTEC and the New Hampshire Division of Economic Development, Cowcello is an effort to inspire and encourage individuals to embrace a life of health, wellness and fitness, environmental consciousness and awareness of natural, organic and alternative products and solutions. Concertgoers will be able to discuss and learn about the lifelong benefits of healthy eating choices from NH farmers and growers. “Having an event of this kind at a venue that was once the site of a working farm really brings things full circle,” said Meadowbrook U.S. Cellular Pavilion President R.J. Harding. “Not only will this event be a celebration of some incredible music, it will also be a celebration of living an active and healthy lifestyle, a concept that all of us at Meadowbrook embrace.” Participants will be able to try organic wines from locally owned vineyards, enjoy demonstrations with Yoga and Pilates experts from The Practice Room, learn the health benefits associated with eating beef raised in a natural and kind environment free of chemicals and hormones with Miles Smith Farm and discover how cooking organically can not only help you and your family’s health but also keep our local farmers thriving.

Stonyfield Farm, Apple Annie and Late July Organic Snacks. Partnering with the Meadowbrook U.S. Cellular Pavilion will be Portsmouth-based sustainable clothing manufacturer EARTHTEC. At its heart, EARTHTEC’s story is pretty simple according to company founder Dennis Randall. “We are outdoor people. Skiers, hikers, trail runners, kayakers, extreme picnickers. Our favorite place is Earth. We’ve been known to hug a tree or two. We’re into green. We are also clothing people. Put all of that together, and you have EARTHTEC, a group of people who love helping you look good and perform well in clothes that make the planet happier,” he said. “We have partnered this year with the Meadowbrook U.S. Cellular Pavilion to collect all the plastic bottles from the 2011 Concert Season and look forward to turning them into useful clothing for next year’s concert season.” Joining EARTHTEC will be the New Hampshire Division of Economic Development whose communications and legislative director Steve Boucher said that supporting an event like Cowcello is a new and innovative way to support the state’s business community. “New Hampshire is so very fortunate to have such a great farming industry as well as a great number of companies that are dedicated to helping people maintain healthy lifestyles,” he said. “We encourage people be part of this great event and more importantly, to buy local products. Buying local ensures that dollars stay in our community and promotes a stronger state economy.” Cowcello will feature over nine hours of music beginning with four local and regional bands on the Magic Hat Second Stage at 2 p.m. Granite State bands The Crunchy Western Boys and The Chris White Band will join Caitlin Canty and The Adam Ezra Band from Boston in kicking off the festivities. The main stage will begin at 7 p.m. with Nicole Atkins, and her alluring, alternative folk rock sound. The Avett Brothers will headline the event with their organic and unique blend of a rootsy amalgam of folk, country, bluegrass, rock and pop.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Dear Annie: I’m soon to be an adult and am starting to make some important decisions. “Lana” has been my best friend for 12 years, but I’m beginning to think it’s over. She is really hurting me. When we go to festivals together, Lana walks around with someone else and ignores me. When I invite her to go to the movies, she always wants to bring a date, which makes me the third wheel. Every time I really like a guy, she friends him on Facebook and gets him interested in her. We even took her on a family vacation, and she barely spoke to my parents and didn’t thank them afterward. Times have been tough for Lana lately, and I’m there for support, but she always creates drama and pushes things to the edge. Being there for her turns me into a wreck. My parents think she isn’t worth the trouble, and I’m starting to believe they are right. When I’m with Lana, I feel miserable. What can I do? All this is stressing me out. -- One Confused Cookie Dear Cookie: Anyone who consistently undermines you and makes you feel miserable is not a true friend -- and we think you know that. You need to back away from Lana and her drama. Call her less often, and don’t rush to invite her to join you at the movies or festivals. A little distance will allow you to regain your equilibrium and seek out other friends. Dear Annie: I have been married for a long time to a very social guy. I am not. I suffer from depression and chronic pain. I have a small home business and do most of the household chores. Most days, I am weary simply getting through the day. The problem comes from all the activities he joins. I don’t mind that he does. I actually encourage him to do what makes him happy. The problem is, as his wife, he expects me to take part in every event.

I have suggested that I come to some, but not all. He does not like this solution and becomes angry and resentful, making me feel guilty. We have had this problem our entire marriage. His interests and mine do not coincide for the most part, nor does he enjoy my friends. It’s as if my life is supposed to revolve around him. How can I make him see that his demands aren’t fair to me and I am doing the best I can? -- Unhappy with the Status Quo Dear Unhappy: Your husband may erroneously believe that it would help your depression and pain if you were more involved, but participating in something you don’t enjoy is unlikely to alleviate your problems. Your efforts to compromise are good, and your husband should be more accepting of your limitations and preferences. You might offer to go a little more often if he will back off on the rest. Dear Annie: The letter from “Tired of Wet Beds” hit home. She was concerned about her 14-year-old stepson wetting the bed every night. I had the same trouble with my child. At first I thought it was night sweats because there was no urine odor. Along with needing to urinate frequently, my son was constantly thirsty. We had numerous medical tests run. My husband wanted to deny our son water after 7 p.m. and would make him feel like a baby. Meanwhile, I persisted with testing until one brilliant doctor checked for diabetes insipidus, a rare disease that causes frequent urination. The large amounts of water my thirsty child drank during the day gave him water intoxication and diluted his urine, which was why there was no odor. After being put on the proper medication, there was no more bedwetting. That was 10 years ago, and my son no longer needs the medication and is leading a normal life. Please encourage your readers with bedwetting problems to explore this. -- California
