‘The Guys’ offers poignant challenge for local actors in two-person 9/11-themed production
thursday
Green: increase in recycling saves city taxpayers $36,700 so far this year
By RogeR aMsden FOR THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — Two local actors who play lead roles in “The Guys”, a play which opens tonight at the Winnipesaukee Playhouse and which focuses on the immediate aftermath of the tragedy of 9/11/2001, say that their own memories of that day and the terrible losses suffered make it more important than ever for them to “get it right’’ in their performances. “I heard about the first plane into the tower on the radio and thought I can’t believe a small plane would do that. When the second one hit, I knew that we were under attack. It was such a shock. And then when I saw the towers collapse I realized how devastating it was” says Jim Rogato, who plays the role of a New York City fire captain in the play. In order to give his performance an air of authenticity, Rogato has been preparing for his role by spending a lot of time with local firefighters and developing a sense of their shared bond. “We want to get the characters right, so that they become part of us,” says Rogato. Katie Dunn, who plays the role of a journalist helping the fire captain write eulogies for eight members of his company who were lost when the World Trade Center towers collapsed, says 9/11 was her “ ‘where were you moment?’ that will be with me all my life.” Dunn was in college in Santa Fe, New Mexico, when the attacks took place and that she remembers how

Register of Deeds, Commissioners caught by contradictory statutes By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — With the patience of the Belknap County Commissioners running thin, at least another week will pass before attorneys propose a resolution to their dispute with Barbara Luther, the Register of Deeds, over whether she must comply with the recommendations of the independent auditor. When the commissioners met last evening attorney Phillip McLaughlin, representing Luther, assured them that he aimed to reach a settlement in the best interests of

both the register and the county, but could not do so before the end of next week. “The end of next week is reasonable,” said attorney Paul Fitzgerald, who represents the commission. “We’ll all be here next week.” “We’ve been here for the last month,” grumbled Commissioner Steve Nedeau of Meredith. Since July, when Melanson Heath & Company, P.C. reported to the commission, Luther has refused to accept the auditor’s recommendation to close the registry’s accounts and deposit the taxes and fees it collects directly into the county general

fund. In support of their recommendation, the auditors cited the state law delineating the duties of county treasurers (RSA 29:1), which reads “the county treasurer shall have custody of all moneys belonging to the county, and shall pay out the same only upon orders of the commissioners.” Luther, however, relies on the statute governing registers of deeds, a section of which (RSA 478:17-i) stipulates that “Each register of deeds shall pay over once a month to his county treasurer, for use of the county, all fees received by him as such register see COuNty page 9 Modern Woodmen

TUNOSHNA, Russia (AP) — A private jet carrying a Russian professional hockey team to its first game of the season crashed shortly after takeoff Wednesday, killing 43 people — including European and former NHL players — in one of the worst aviation disasters in sports history. Two people survived the accident. The crash also was the latest tragedy to befall the sport of hockey — following the sudden, offseason deaths of three of the NHL’s tough-guy enforcers that has shocked fans. The chartered Yak-42 jet was carrying the team — Lokomotiv Yaroslavl — to Minsk, the capital of Belarus, where it was to play Thursday in its opening game of the Kontinental Hockey League season. Of the 45 people on board, 36 were players, coaches and team officials; eight were crew. The plane apparently struggled to gain altitude and then hit a signal tower before breaking apart along the Volga River near Yaroslavl, 150 miles (240 kilometers) northeast of Moscow. One of the blue-andwhite plane’s charred engines poked through the surface of the shallow water. “This is the darkest day in the history of our sport,” said Rene Fasel, president of the International Ice Hockey Federation. “This is not only a Russian tragedy — the Lokomotiv roster included players and coaches from 10 nations.” One player — identified as Russian Alexander Galimov — and one unidentified crew member were hospitalized in “very grave” condition.

NH Senate passes bill to expand deadly force CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — Despite objections from law enforcement and a governor’s veto, the New Hampshire Senate passed a bill Wednesday that allows people to use deadly force to defend themselves any place they have a right to be. The 17-7 vote in the Republican-controlled Senate overrode Democratic Gov. John Lynch’s veto and sent the bill to the House, where odds are in favor of an override. The House has not said when the vote will take place. Also Wednesday, the Senate rejected a
bill to require voters to produce government-issued photo identification before they can cast their ballots. Voters without proper photo identification would cast a provisional ballot and have to prodcue a valid ID in 2-1/2 days. Local election clerks said the provisional ballot would be difficult and costly to administer. Supporters said the issue will be back next year. The deadly force bill is based on the Castle Doctrine, which says a person does not have to retreat from intruders at home
before using deadly force. The bill would expand that principle to public places, anywhere a person has a right to be. The principle is known as the Stand Your Ground Principle. More than two dozen states have passed either one or both of the measures. Current New Hampshire law allows people to use deadly force for self defense in their homes. They can also use deadly force in public to protect themselves or others if they can’t safely retreat. Deadly force is see FORCE page 11
NEW DELHI (AP) — A briefcase bomb tore through a crowd of people waiting to enter a New Delhi courthouse, killing 11 people and wounding scores more Wednesday in the deadliest terrorist attack in India’s capital in nearly three years. An al-Qaida-linked group claimed responsibility, though government officials said it was too early to name a suspect. The attack outside the High Court came despite a high alert across the city and renewed doubts about India’s ability to protect even its most important institutions despite overhauling security after the 2008 Mumbai siege. “Have we become so vulnerable that terrorist groups can almost strike at will?” see INDIA page 7
the most destructive wildfires in Texas history even as the state said the number of homes lost reached almost 800, and an elite search team set out to find any victims in the smoking ruins. Gov. Rick Perry, meanwhile, resumed his presidential campaign after rushing home over the weekend to deal with the crisis, traveling to California to meet his Republican rivals in his first nationally televised debate. The blaze has left at least two people dead, blackened about 45 square miles around Bastrop and cast a haze over Austin, 25 miles to the west, where the air smelled strongly of pine and cedar. Firefighters reported that the flames were at least 30 percent contained after burning uncontrolled for three days. They
explode over the weekend. Nevertheless, the number of homes that the Texas Forest Service reported destroyed rose from around 600 the day before. The wildfire is the most catastrophic of more than 170 blazes that have erupted in the past week across the Lone Star State, which is perilously dry because of one of the state’s most severe droughts on record. In addition to the two victims in the Bastrop area fire whose bodies were found Tuesday, the outbreak is blamed for two deaths elsewhere. A total of at 1,188 homes have been destroyed by wildfires in Texas in the last week, including the 800 lost in the Bastrop-area blaze, according to the Texas Forest Service. see TEXAS page 11

Beware easy fixes for Social Security & Medicare Please, everyone, stop monkeying around with Social Security and Medicare. We mean you, Republicans, and you, Democrats. No one’s saying that Social Security can’t be slightly recalibrated to keep the program on a sound footing or that significant savings can’t be found in Medicare waste. We’re saying that if Americans are not vigilant, these programs can be undermined by seemingly small “fixes.” First off, don’t mess with payroll taxes. Democrats are pushing to extend this year’s cut in payroll taxes. That’s a lousy idea. Payroll taxes support Social Security. The program is totally self-sustaining. Taxes not used to support current retirees are put into the Social Security trust fund, to be saved for future needs — mainly when the big baby boom generation retires. These surpluses are lent to the U.S. government in the form of special Treasury bonds. They represent real money from real workers, and yes, the U.S. Treasury is obligated to make good on all its borrowings. Conservative foes of Social Security argue that these Treasury bonds are “worthless pieces of paper” and that the money has already been spent. Why don’t you try that with MasterCard? Call up and say, “I don’t owe you the $925 I charged last month, because I’ve already spent it on a new sofa bed.” See what happens. Social Security’s enemies are perpetrating a con on America’s workers. If they can convince the public that the government doesn’t have to pay back what it borrowed from the trust fund, they don’t have to raise the income taxes that may be needed to honor that debt obligation. When Democrats cut payroll taxes, they weaken the basis of Social Security’s funding. As already noted, those tax dollars are needed. They also remind the workers providing them that their expected Social Security benefits are not some gift from rich people, but something they’ve saved for. On to Medicare.
Republicans want to increase means-testing for the program. Amazingly, President Obama says he’ll consider it. Means-testing involves having the government look at your income to determine how much of a benefit, if any, you may receive. The Medicare program does rely heavily on general revenues (in addition to payroll taxes and contributions by beneficiaries). And Medicare’s soaring price tag is of great concern. Means-testing could cut the program’s costs by reducing the benefits of well-to-do retirees. What’s wrong with that? Plenty. The public’s strong support for Medicare rests on its benefiting every income group. When you start cutting benefits for the wealthy, or semi-wealthy, the wellto-do stop caring so much about the program. Medicare becomes more like welfare. In practical terms, it will become more like Medicaid, the government health plan for the poor. Observe the cuts in that. Medicare already has some means-testing. The better-off pay more for Part B premiums (covering visits to the doctor), and low-income folks pay lower or no premiums for drug coverage. For high-income beneficiaries, Republicans now propose raising those Part B premiums further and increasing their copays. If you like the Republican plan to turn Medicare into a voucher system — whereby the elderly are given a check with which to buy health coverage on the private market — this is a good start. Means-testing will shrink the fan base for Medicare-as-we-know-it. If you want the rich to pay more without undermining Medicare, however, there’s a simpler solution: Raise their income tax rates, and leave their benefits alone. To protect Medicare and Social Security from under-funding or welfare-ization, it’s essential that all income groups see themselves as beneficiaries — and contributors. Remember: A little turn of the wrong screw can shut down an entire factory.
LETTER We can change the country’s tide by praying – and have a nice fall To the editor, I want to wish all my Friends in Moultonborough a HAPPY LABOR day. I am sure they are enjoying this wonderful fall. I know W=winter is just around the corner. It will be here before you know it. All the snow birds will be heading to Florida, which I can say I do not blame them. I just hope the economy gets better and the jerks in Washington see the handwriting on the wall. We need
good leaders. We can change the tide of this country if we would only pray instead of saying no to GOD, our creator. Look around and see all that is taken place around the world, then tell me we have no GOD. He is trying to wake us up to see what is happening. So all you nice people have a wonderful fall. Anna DeRose Moultonborough
LETTERS Working together, civilly, would be most fitting 9/11 memorial To the editor, When I see the magazine covers and TV specials dedicated to the “children of 9/11”, I feel a deep pang of sadness for all those children have endured. But, as we approach this momentous anniversary of that terrible day, I have come to realize that we are ALL children of 9/11 in one way or another. Those of us who experienced that day are forever changed whether we were directly or indirectly impacted. They way we view the world, our country, our safety, the fragility of life was challenged that day and made us reconsider some of our most basic
assumptions. I hope as we mark this somber 10th anniversary of our national, and international, tragedy that we can once again, as we did 10 years ago, pull together as a nation of individuals dedicated to peace, liberty and the betterment of our fellow man. If, on this day of remembrance, we could dedicate ourselves to an end to name calling and partisan shouting and instead agree to work together on behalf of all of our citizens, wouldn’t that be the most fitting memorial of all?

It’s a breath of fresh air to hear facts presented without hysteria To the editor, Just had to write to let one James Veverka of Tilton know what a wonderful job he is doing by giving us the facts without hysteria, innuendo or accusation. I want to extend my congratulations. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, James. What a beautiful breath of fresh air not to have to read the misleading, misinformed and outright lies of
certain people who constantly write to your newspaper as if they are paid to have a daily or weekly column. Most of them are just ‘blowing’ off steam, but it seems that they NEVER get tired of boring us with their party line, incorrect facts or accusations implying that ONLY they know the facts and truth of any matter.

Conservatives just aren’t critical thinkers - they’re herd animals To the editor, Jack Stephenson has presented a bold faced lie about President Obama’s religion in his diatribe against Mr. Sandy and Mr. Cracraft. He stated, “Obama HAS admitted he is a Muslim, and regularly shows that by observing all their religious actions. There is no question about his Muslim upbringing,.” This is pure dishonesty and typical right-wing propaganda. What planet is Jack on? Being a news junkie, a political junkie, a religion, science and history junkie I can say that I have never seen one thing supporting Jack’s claim. The president has never observed “all their religious actions”
and had no Muslim upbringing. The truth of the matter is that Jack has been brainwashed by right-wing hate media who lie about everything because they have Obama Derangement Syndrome. He probably can’t help it because he is now a slave of their ideology, parroting all the lies he hears. I have seen over and over the ignorance of those who propagate this nonsense. Talk radio, right wing blogs and Fox News just spit lie after lie. Conservatives just aren’t critical thinkers; they are herd animals who follow the stench. James Veverka Tilton

blance between the professor and critical thinking must be pure accident because I haven’t seen any sign of it yet and I have been reading his stuff for years. Using the term repeatedly does not mean that it is being

LETTERS There were no hijackings in America when we could fly armed To the editor, On gun laws, lets look at the record. During the 1960s I was a marketing supervisor for rubber lined tanks at the BF Goodrich Co. Being a marketing supervisor required that I make frequent flights to visit the BF Goodrich field sales force. In making those flights I flew several “legs” a week, often on several different airlines. On the United Airlines alone, I became a “million miler” on the frequent flyer program. In order to feel safe as I transited the various parking lots at night time, I constantly flew armed. The first nationwide gun law was passed in 1968, and I along with millions of other Americans had to fly disarmed. On March 5, 1969, shortly after the 1968 gun law passed, Tony Bryant climbed into an airplane, and in the first hijacking that I had ever heard about in the United States, he hijacked an airplane to Cuba. His book, “Hijack” was published in 1984. There were no hijackings in America when Americans could fly armed. All hijackings in America, (including the tragic “9/11” hijackings) occurred only after Americans were disarmed. As it was in the air, so it was on the ground. In 1944, my dad retired to a farm in Maryland. One of the first things he did was to phone the county sheriff to ask him what to do if he saw some person out around his farm buildings. The sheriff’s response was, “Shoot him and then call me.” Every farmer in the county followed that
rule, but nobody ever got shot, and nobody ever had to call the sheriff. Nobody ever got shot, but also nobody ever went anywhere on somebody’s farm without getting permission from the farmer first. That county was a very safe place to live. Today with the “safety”, that gun laws were supposed to give we citizens, there is literally, 10 times more crime (on a “per capita” basis) today and lots less safety, than there was when there were no gun laws at all in our nation. The reports are that there are more people being murdered, in one city like Houston or Washington DC, with gun laws, than there were in the entire United States in the days before gun laws. SB-88 is needed because the people, need to again be able to defend themselves. The governor was wrong to veto SB-88, and the Legislature should override it. Sheriff Wiggin is correct when he blames the Legislature for the statute that sent Ward Bird to jail for three years and by inference a whole host of statutes. Statutes however are produced by the Legislature and as such can be corrected by an act of the Legislature. A very much needed bill (jurors are constitutional officers) has been introduced to accomplish just such a goal. My thanks to Sheriff Wiggin for bringing this problem to the attention of the public. There is more, but enough for now. Representative Robert Kingsbury Laconia

Leo Sandy’s column on September 6 was so nice I read it twice To the editor, Leo Sandy’s column on Sept. 6 was one of his best, and what we expect of him. It’s worth reading again to be
sure you got it all the 1st time. Jack Stephenson Gilford
Critical thinking entails deliberating before believing or acting To the editor, I taught Critical Thinking at Mass Bay Community College for several years. So when I read Prof. Sandy’s recent column on the subject, two responses came to mind. Our course, required for all students, was facilitated by a staff of teachers. We kept our ears tuned to how others do it. At one point British Columbia (Canada) was going to institute critical thinking
in their K-12/13 curriculum, so sought a definition manageable at all levels. They came to this: critical thinking is deliberating before believing or acting. Weighing evidence is a big part of critical thinking. A student in one of my sections had a prison record. In his late 20s at the time of our class, he was also the father of an impetuous six-yearsee next page
from preceding page employed by that writer. To think critically one must have at least some kind of basic understand of cause and effect. Unfortunately what Leo tries to pass off as reasoned evaluations of issues is nothing of the sort. That’s because the professor starts the process at the conclusions he wishes to arrive at. Then he works backwards molding and interpreting facts and opinions into an argument designed to convince readers that his solutions have validity. If he did that at his position at PSU, I suspect he would be charged with academic fraud. Over the years he has been called on his conclusions over and over by many writers, then, to defend his conclusions, he resorts to ridicules, twisted, convoluted rationalizations that no reasonable person would accept. In his arrogance
he then tells everyone that they just don’t understand, as though his words are just beyond the comprehension of we the ignorant unwashed masses. It is said that power corrupts and so it must also be true of those like the professor who have an overblown sense of their own academic stature. Readers should be clear about the motives of Leo R. Sandy. The gentleman’s is clearly a leftist socialist who is actively working for the concept of a one world government devoid of private ownerships, national boarders and sovereignty, distribution of wealth and anything resembling free enterprise. I don’t know if there is a name for that kind of thinking other then communism. Am I wrong? Oh that’s right! I just don’t understand. Steve Earle Hill

To the editor, Anyone remember all the nasty letters written about the cruel, heartless Wisconsin Governor, Scott Walker? Remember the hateful, superheated rhetoric about this politician not caring about students and teachers? This is just a financially corrupt addition to the usual left-handed liberal talking points about Republicans not caring about the poor, the elderly, the homeless and the disabled. Repeated so often by the accommodating media over the past few decades, that this leftist propaganda is now widely viewed as a proven fact beyond any reasonable doubt. This is precisely why union agitators could write hate speech on Wisconsin sidewalks without compunction. “The tree of liberty is watered by the blood of tyrants.” The tyrant being “Scott Walker American Fa$ci$t”. President Obama lamented Scott Wallker’s “assault on the unions”. The Walker legislation limited the issues that are subject to collective bargaining and required teachers to contribute more to the cost of their health insurance and pension plans. Millions of dollars were spent by national unions and others sympathetic to the cause in trying to recall six Republicans and defeat a Supreme Court justice. Only two were recalled proving, according to George Will, “the limited utility of money when backing a bankrupt agenda”. He went on to mention a group called, “We are Wisconsin”. “During the recall tumult, unions barely mentioned either their supposed grievance about collective bargaining, or their real fears, which concern money, particularly political money. The group’s name, insincere hyperbole, you be the judge. FDR and George Meany did try to warn us about public sector unions did they? Mark Belling, afternoon, drive time talk radio host for WISN in Milwaukee, offered up some terrific news for teachers and students. It seems that Governor Walker’s reforms exceeded even his expectations. Health insurance premiums went down, way down. State teacher’s unions formed their own health insurance company many years ago called Wisconsin Education Association Trust (WEA Trust). They then pressured schools into buying insurance from the company they owned.
Not satisfied with the profits from the health insurance, they started over charging for their insurance monopoly. No one knew how much because it was never put out for bid until Governor Walker came along. The schools were then allowed to put contracts out for bid and low and behold, they saved a boatload of money. Money that had been previously secured under duress and with utter contempt for teachers and students. Anyone care to guess where all that ill-gotten booty was spent? It was spent with reckless abandon on Democratic campaigns and activism. And the gang on the left claim only Republicans are burdened with a cold-hearted, mercenary zeal. Schools have saved hundreds of thousands of dollars in drastically lowered insurance premiums while reducing the number of teacher layoffs. Conversely, according to Mr. Will, “having spent improvidently on the recall elections, the Wisconsin Education Association Council, the teachers union, is firing 40-percent of it’s staff”. Mark Belling notes that Heartland Lakeside School district has itself saved hundreds of thousands of dollars. When they repeatedly asked the union why they were overcharging, no answer was ever given. Hey, it’s an inefficient, gluttonous government apparatus doing what it does best, throwing money down the rat hole of inflated self-interests. The liberal union agenda can’t fathom that Governor Walker will dare to enact further reform such as accountability, school choice and tort reform. They still believe they are the party of compassion and that the governor is the big, bad meanie. But of course, it is the right wing conservative gang that is the party of stubborn narrow mindedness. Will someone please help me understand how the left wing liberal mind works. Finally, one more sidewalk graffiti from the “halcyon days” of Wisconsin teacher union protesting and running away: “Free water — for now”. As George Will says, “There succinctly is liberalism’s credo: If everything isn’t “free”, meaning paid for by someone else, nothing will be safe”. You can’t, as they say, make this stuff up. Russ Wiles Tilton
from preceding page old son. He saw signs of himself in his son’s impetuosity. He decided to take home his critical thinking strategies. One day he told the class about this. He told us, “Now when I see my son about to do anything (attach a bicycle horn, go over a fence, feed the dog), I ask him, ‘Is there another way to do that?”” By stopping to consider even one other way to achieve the goal,
critical thinking process goes into action. Once two ways are identified, it’s a natural to weigh out the consequences and with deliberation choose one option over another. I appreciate that student for sharing this with us. A bonus to teaching is hearing students do some of the teaching. Lynn Rudmin Chong Sanbornton
BCEDC, Rod Dyer update County Commissioners on Colonial Theater LACONIA - Calling it a program of “area-wide significance,” Rod Dyer told the Belknap County commissioners last night any revitalization of the Colonial Theater would have to be done in phases. Dyer, who chairs the recently formed Cultural Arts Center of the Lakes Region, said Phase I, if the project is determined feasible, would be to acquire the property and fix it to the point where it is suitable for public use. Calling the renovations done to the theater as “essentially reversible,” Dyer said the building deteriorates daily and now just may be the “last, best chance to save the theater. Dyer made his presentation as part of a quarterly update of the Belknap County Economic Development Council - the quasi-public economic arm of the Lakes Region that applied for and recently secured $625,000 in Community Development Finance Authority tax credits. The credits are purchased by individual private investors and Dyer said the net result should be about $500,000 that would be put toward the first phase of the project. BCEDC executive director Carmen Lorentz said she has also applied for grants from Public Service of New Hampshire and the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation. She said an application is also being submitted to the Land and Community Heritage Investment Program or LCHIP that will hopefully secure some matching funds for acquisition costs. BCEDC Chair David Haley and Treasurer Sean Sullivan also addressed the recent revelation that the $480,000 bridge loan from revolving loan funds to a defunct Barnstead wood pellet company is in default.
“We will do what we can to secure our position,” Haley said, noting the agency is willing to go to court if necessary to recoup its loan, interest and fees. The BCEDC has filed suit against the company and two of its principals in Belknap County Superior Court. Commissioners remained silent during Haley’s statements. While the BCEDC operates independently of the Belknap County government, county taxpayers have traditionally appropriated $75,000 per year to the agency to fund operating expenses. No county funds are applied to loans made by the BCEDC. Haley said the BCEDC is also experiencing an income drop because the interest on the money it has on deposit - about $3 million in revolving loan funds - has dropped precipitously. To save money in overhead costs, Haley said Lorentz is the only fulltime employee and when the parttime secretary retires next year, her position will be filled with independent contractors. Haley also said agency is looking to relocate from the Busiel Mill to “more budget friendly” headquarters. In other County Commissioner news, County Administrator Debra Shackett announced that the Barnstead committee created to evaluate the possibility of subcontracting the town’s policing duties to the Belknap County Sheriff’s will meet with Barnstead Selectmen Tuesday, Sept. 13 at the Barnstead Town Hall. Selectmen’s meetings begin at 6:30 p.m. Shackett, County Finance Director Glen Waring and Sheriff Craig Wiggin will be at the Selectmen’s meeting. Barnstead Selectmen’s Chair David Kerr said the first public hearing will be held in Town Hall on Sept. 14 at 7 p.m. and a second is scheduled for Sept. 28, also at Town Hall at 7 p.m.
INDIA from page 2 opposition lawmaker Arun Jaitley asked in Parliament. The bomb left a deep crater on the road and shook the courthouse, sending lawyers and judges fleeing outside. “There was smoke everywhere. People were running. People were shouting. There was blood everywhere. It was very, very scary,” said lawyer Sangeeta Sondhi, who was parking her car near the gate when the bomb exploded. The government rallied Indians to remain strong in the face of such attacks. “We will never succumb to the pres-
sure of terrorists,” Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said during a visit to neighboring Bangladesh. “This is a long war in which all political parties and all the people of India will have to stand united so that this scourge of terrorism is crushed.” The bomb exploded about 10:14 a.m. near a line of more than 100 people waiting at a reception counter for passes to enter the court building to have their cases heard. The blast killed 11 people and wounded 76 others. Their identities were not available, but no judges were among the victims.

Laconia Police to hold ‘brief, somber’ ceremony for 9/11 Partial ceiling collapse BY GAIL OBER
THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA - On the tenth anniversary of the 9/11, city police will hold a brief ceremony in front of the Laconia Police Department where a memorial that includes a piece of a support beam from the former World Trade Center will be unveiled. Capt. William Clary, who arranged with the New York/New Jersey Port Authority for a piece of one of the collapsed twin towers, said the Laconia Police Relief Association memorial will be ready for the ceremony. “It’s taken us about a year and a half to get this artifact,” Clary said yesterday. Clary said the former support beam is approximately three feet long and is being mounted on granite by the Laconia Monument Company. “The best way we can honor the memory of those we lost on 9/11 is to find homes in the W.T.C. memo-
rial and in cities and towns around the nation for the hundreds of artifacts we’ve carefully preserved over the years,” said Port Authority executive director Christopher Ward in a 2009 interview given to the New York Times about the nationwide preservation projects. Thanks to Clary, Laconia is one of those “cities and towns” along with six other communities in the state. Clary said the granite and steel memorial will be placed near the flag pole in front of the New Salem Street police station and his hope is that people will continue to donate to the memorial through the police relief association. He said the ceremony will begin at 11 a.m. Sunday and will be “brief and somber” and the department has invited members of the public to join the observance. To support the Laconia Police Relief Association, contact city police at 126 New Salem St., Laconia, N.H. 03246 or 524-5257.

LACONIA — The Laconia High School library is expected to reopen later this week following the collapse of a section of the old plastered ceiling Monday night. Superintendent of Schools Bob Champlin said that a number of ceiling tiles, lighting fixtures and part of the ceiling grid were destroyed when the plaster gave way. The old plaster had been covered up by a drop ceiling during the 1974 renovations. He said that RFS Engineering was contacted Tuesday and Chad Monterose came to the sight immediately. Monterose offered a solution for the remaining plaster but first voiced a caution for the possible presence of hazardous materials. Samples of the plaster were tested and no hazardous materials were found. Champlin said the next steps will include securing the remaining plaster, putting up a new ceiling grid and replacing the lights in a section of the library. Estimated cost is $12,000-$15,000. He said that the school district’s insurer was contacted and has visited the site. As a precaution an engineer from RFS has been checking any ceiling that has old plaster and will develop a plan for dealing with the situation.
RECYCLE from page one Since January, 792.22 tons of recyclables have been collected compared to 658.95 tons during the same period in 2010, an increase of 133.27 tons or 20-percent. Curbside collection rose only 5 -percent, from 415.81 tons to 436.50 tons , but recyclables taken to the three remote locations jumped from 243.14 tons to 355.72 tons, an increase of almost 113 tons, or 46-percent. Every ton taken out of the waste stream and recycled reduces the cost of collecting, transporting and disposing of solid waste, which is funded by property taxes, by more than $147.24 per ton. Recycling trimmed solid waste costs by $116,699.70 . Since the city pays a fixed price of $10,000 to collect recyclable materials regardless of tonnage, the net saving from the recycling program was $36,699.70. At this pace, the volume of recycled material would top 1,200 tons by year end, which would represent about 8.5-percent of the 14,000 tons of residential and commercial solid waste. As a rule of thumb, 60-percent of all solid waste can be recycled. On Wednesday, September 14 the city will host a public forum and question-and-answer session on a proposal to introduce a pay-as-you-throw program designed to further reduce the cost of disposing of solid waste by increasing the volume of recycling. The forum will be held at Laconia Middle School from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., with the doors opening at 6 p.m. Those unable to attend may e-mail their questions to Scott Myers, the City Manager, at see next page

Planning Board gives HK Powersports green light By Michael Kitch
LACONIA — The Planning Board this week approved the plan of HK Powersports to add a storage building to its sales and service complex at 1191 Union Avenue. HK Powersports, founded, owned and operated by the Whalley family, has sold and serviced motorcycles, snowmobiles and all-terrain vehicles and accessories in Laconia since 1984. General Manager Steve Whalley said that the project marks the completion of melding the firm’s operation in Tilton, which closed in May, with the Laconia facility. The company payroll now numbers 21 in Laconia, where the traditional inventory of
Kawasaki, Yamaha, Polaris and Artic Cat has been expanded to include Seadoo, Skidoo, Can-Am, Honda and Suzuki products previously offered in Tilton. The company also operates in Hooksett, where it began. Sales at the Hooksett store have generally been double those of Laconia, but the consolidation of the two Lakes Region outlets is expected to significantly narrow if not entirely erase that margin. The planned storage building, a wood framed and metal skinned structure 60-feet by 100-feet, will stand alongside its twin toward the rear of the 4.5-acre lot. The gravel driveway will be paved to serve the new building. Whalley urged the board to approve the project so that construction can be finished and the building put to use before winter. The building is projected to cost $22.340.
COUNTY from page one and all charges paid to him for services arising out of or because of his office, including but not limited to payments for duties under RSA 78-B;8,” or the real estate transfer tax. Ed Philpot, chairman of the commission, made it plain that he expected “a plan of how and when it will happen” sooner rather than later. McLaughlin replied that while he understood the objective of the commission he has “concerns about divided responsibilities,” stressing “it has nothing to do with Ms. Luther but with the law and the contradictory interpretation of the demands it places on the register.” Moreover, he said that Luther had “a constitutional obligation to protect her office.” Philpot was not persuaded and reminded McLaughlin “we’re dealing with an audit report that recommends best practices for dealing with public money.” The commission, he said “feels bound by the audit report. I don’t see the conflict on this particular issue,” he continued. “It’s not about Barbara. It’s
about the efficient operation of county government. We have no option but to impose best practices as recommended by the auditor.” Compliance, he said, is not a matter of if, but when. “There is a risk,” McLaughlin countered, “there is something here that you don’t see.” Noting that the issue has arisen in other counties, he said that the challenge is “to reconcile what appear on their face to be contradictory or opposing statutory authorities.” He suggested that another week was “a short period of time,” hinting that one alternative would be to settle the issue in court, which he stressed “would not be necessary with some measure of patience.” “You don’t leave much choice,” Philpot responded, adding that while he was reluctant to require the matter be resolved “with all deliberate speed” he expected it be done “pretty quickly.” “By the end of the week,” Nedeau offered. “Two days,” said McLaughlin. “I just don’t know how I could get that done.” He asked for another week and reluctantly the commission agreed.
THE GUYS from page one people reached out to be supportive of one another in the face of such widespread tragedy. “No matter where you were, you called home. We didn’t know then how much and what it was that the attacks would change. People kept asking when will we get back to normal. But that didn’t happen. Everything changed.’’ she says. She says that there is a link in her own mind to the character she plays, noting that she also felt the angst that was experienced by the author of the play, Anne Nelson, who wrote the play in the immediate
aftermath of the attacks and saw it debut less than three months later on a New York City stage and starring Sigourney Weaver and Bill Murray. “It was her city and she wanted to do something about it. I can relate to that,” says Dunn, who says her goal is to give life to the words that were written and to bring the audience into the experience. Rogato says that being involved in the play has given him a new respect for first responders and the risks they routinely take on behalf of others. “What this play has done for me is to open my eyes to the service personnel, their professionalism, teamwork and dedication. They didn’t hesitate when they went into a burning building and up those flights of stairs to try and save people’s lives.’’ He said that he has come to better understand the emotional impact the losses of good friends has on first responders. see next page

SIMI VALLEY, Calif. (AP) — Quick to tangle, Republican presidential rivals Rick Perry and Mitt Romney sparred vigorously over job creation and Social Security Wednesday night in a feisty campaign debate that marked a contentious new turn in the race to pick a 2012 challenger to President Barack Obama. Far more than in earlier GOP debates this summer, the candidates mixed it up in their first faceoff since Perry entered the race and almost instantly overtook Romney as frontrunner in opinion polls. Those two — as well as other contenders on stage — sniped at one another, contradicted allegations and interrupted media questioners to demand opportunities to take each other on. “Michael Dukakis created jobs three times faster than you did, Mitt,” Perry jabbed in the debate’s opening moments, referring to one of Romney’s Democratic predecessors as governor of Massachusetts. “As a matter of fact, George Bush and his predecessors created jobs at a faster rate than you did,” Romney shot back at Perry, the 10-year incumbent Texas governor. The debate was the first of three in as many weeks, at a time when the economy is struggling, unemployment is seemingly stuck at 9.1 percent and Obama’s popularity is sinking in the polls — all events that could make the GOP nomination worth more than it appeared only a few months ago. Perry and Romney stood next to each other on the debate stage at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library, a setting that invoked the memory of the conservative Republican who swept to two terms as president. And for much of the evening, the two men were at the center of the action, largely reducing their rivals to the roles of spectators looking for a way into the action. Former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman sided with Perry when he turned to Romney and said, “47th just isn’t going to cut it, my friend,” a reference to the rank Massachusetts had among the 50 states in creating jobs during Romney’s term. But he also sought to rebut Perry’s claim to be chief executive of the country’s top job-producing state. “I hate to rain on the parade of the great Lone Star State governor, but as governor of Utah, we were the No. 1 job creator during my years in service,” Huntsman said. Businessman Herman Cain, Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann, Texas Rep. Ron Paul, former House Speaker
Newt Gingrich and former Sen. Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania shared the stage for the debate hosted by MSNBC and Politico. Not surprisingly, the GOP contenders had little good to say about Obama, either his record on creating jobs or the health care law they have vowed to repeal if they win the White House. Perry was an exception, volunteering his praise for the presidential order that resulted in the death of Osama bin Laden in a U.S. military raid in Pakistan. He also said he was happy the U.S. prison at Guantanamo has been kept open. On another foreign policy issue, Bachmann criticized Obama’s decision to join an international military campaign in Libya. Bachman also said she would provide the “strong, bold leader in the presidency who will lead” the effort to repeal the health care law passed at Obama’s behest. “None of us should ever think that the repeal bill will just come to our desk,” she said in a pledge that drew applause from the audience. Gingrich resisted an effort to draw him into conflict with other Republicans on stage. “I’m frankly not interested in your efforts to get Republicans fighting each other,” he said, sparking an even louder round of applause. He said all Republicans should “defeat efforts by the news media” to spark an internal struggle when the real objective is to defeat Obama in 2012. But moments later, Cain said that after trying to defeat Democratic efforts to create national health care, “I’m running against Romneycare,” the legislation that passed requiring residents of Massachusetts to purchase coverage. Social Security produced more sparks, when Perry said the program was a “Ponzi scheme” and added it was a lie to tell young workers they will ever receive the benefits they have been promised. Romney quickly referred to Perry’s book, “Fed Up,” in which the Texas governor said that by any measure the program was a failure. Perry also said states should be able to opt out of the program,’ Romney added. Perry was unrepentant — “You cannot keep the status quo in place and call it anything other than a Ponzi scheme,” he said. The Texas governor also made it clear he doesn’t intend to take advice from Karl Rove, the former Bush political adviser who recently said some of Perry’s rhetoric has been too provocative for a general election. “Karl has been over the top for a long time now,” he said.
from preceding page “Suddenly there are people gone from your life, people with whom you probably spent more time with than you did with your own family. It’s a hard thing to deal with,” says Rogato. The Winni Players production is directed by Matt McGonagle and will be staged in the intimate setting of the Winnipesaukee Playhouse, located in the Alpen Rose plaza in The Weirs, which Rogato says helps produce strong audience response. “When we get a response from the
audience it’s like a huge adrenaline rush. We take their energy and build on that,’’ says Rogato. The playhouse warns that “The Guys” may not be suitable for children under the age of 12. Tickets cost $11 for adults and $9 for seniors/students. The Playhouse extends an offer of $5 tickets for service personnel, including fire, police, ambulance and military. There are performances Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 7:30 p.m. and on Sunday, September 11 at 2 p.m. and 7:30pm.

Oh, Brother: Pats sign another Gronkowski FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Dan Gronkowski got a job, Rob Gronkowski got a roommate, and their parents have one fewer channel to surf on NFL Sundays. New England signed former Denver tight end Dan Gronkowski on Wednesday, giving the Patriots two of the three brothers currently on NFL rosters. Dan’s new locker is a few steps down “Gronkowski Row” from little brother Rob, who was drafted by New England last year; middle brother Chris is a running back who was claimed off waivers by Indianapolis on Sunday. “You’re grateful to have brothers in the league. But then when it comes down to it, you get a brother on the same team — that’s awesome,” Rob said Wednesday as the Patriots prepared for Monday night’s game against the Miami Dolphins. “It was already a dream come true that he was in the NFL at the same time. But having him on the same team is awesome. To have someone there (can
give you) a lot more support, a lot more intensity that we can bring out of each other because we know each other like this. It’s going to be a lot of fun.” Rob Gronkowski, 22, played in all 16 games for the Patriots last year after being selected in the second round of the draft out of Arizona. He caught 42 passes for 546 yards and 10 touchdowns. Dan Gronkowski, 26, was a seventh-round pick out of Maryland who has played in 14 games over two seasons with Detroit and Denver, catching nine passes total. By the way, Chris Gronkowski, 24, signed with the Cowboys as an undrafted free agent but was waived at the end of camp before latching on with the Colts. And another brother, Glenn, is at Kansas State. “I think the two brothers were giving each other headlocks in the locker room yesterday, and they’re excited,” Patriots quarterback Tom Brady said. “He seems to be a nice guy — mature and he has some familiarity with what we’ve done.”
FORCE from page 2 not limited to a firearm, but could be a knife, baseball bat or other weapon. Law enforcement groups argue that expanding the law would put the public at risk of more shoot-outs by untrained people. They said gun rights already are protected under current law and if the bill becomes law, it would potentially increase violence in public places and make it harder to prosecute criminals. Supporters said the change would protect honest citizens. “What is our most basic, fundamental human right? The answer is — we can all agree — the right to self-defense,” said Sen. David Boutin, a Hookset Republican and the bill’s prime sponsor. Boutin said no one making a splitsecond decision should have to choose between going to jail and being harmed. But Sen. Matthew Houde, D-Plainfield, said no one had ever been prosecuted for not retreating. The state has to disprove a self-defense claim, he said. “One doesn’t have to sit there and ponder,” he said. The emotional debate spilled over into a House Republican Facebook forum Tuesday night when Rep. Kyle Tasker of Northwood questioned if police should have more of a right to point a weapon at someone than the person who points a gun at another person. In one instance, the behavior is legal; in the other, it is not.
“When a police officer points his firearm that’s not gonna make me feel threatened? If I’ve been trained to respond to that with force am I justified in blowing a cop away because I’m quicker on the draw, and he already pointed his firearm at me? Police are just citizens with badges and all laws should apply equally,” Tasker posted. Tasker told The Associated Press on Wednesday the person who released his comment to the media took it out of context. He said the Republican lawmakers were talking about the equality of how laws are applied and whether they should apply equally to police. “We were discussing when a police officer points a gun at someone why it isn’t a felony,” he said. The bill also grants civil immunity to using force against assailants under some circumstances and repeals a minimum sentencing requirement for felony convictions that include possession, use or attempted use of a firearm. The bill also says brandishing a weapon isn’t considered deadly force under the law. The brandishing provision was inspired by Moultonborough farmer Ward Bird’s incarceration on a mandatory minimum three-year sentence for showing a gun when a trespasser refused to leave his property. Bird was jailed in November and released in February after the Executive Council took the rare step of commuting his sentence.
TEXAS from page 2 One of the two people killed in the Bastrop-area fire was identified Wednesday as Michael Troy Farr, 49, who died at his home in Smithville. Bastrop County officials did not immediately release details about the second victim, who they said was found at a different location. Texas Task Force 1, a search team that was sent to New York following the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and to New Orleans in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, set out in the Bastrop area using dogs trained to sniff out bodies. Mike Fisher, the Bastrop County Emergency Operations Agency’s incident commander, said he didn’t know if there were any more dead, but “if
there are bodies out there, that team is going to find them.” Several thousand people evacuated ahead of the fire, but only around 2,500 registered with the county. Across the state, about 1,200 firefighters battled the blazes, including crews from as far away as California and Oregon. The outbreak has made this the state’s costliest wildfire season on record, with $216 million in firefighting expenses since late 2010. The crisis is unfolding months after Perry signed a budget that cut funding to the Texas Forest Service by onethird. Yet the agency insisted that being $35 million lighter hasn’t left Texas less equipped to fight the latest fires.

SANBORNTON — Hundreds of people turned out to celebrate their Native American heritage at the Laconia Indian Historical Society’s 41st annual Labor Day weekend Pow Wow. The Pow Wows, organized by the Laconia Indian Historical Association, are held on a 90-acre property off from Osgood Road which was donated to the society by the Dulac Land Trust in 1969. Gerry Dulac, who donated the land, says that he is pleased to see that the tradition has held up over the years and would like to see the land continue to be used as an educational resource for future generations. “It’s a good thing to teach the next generation about the values and customs of the Native Americans. I hope someday this will be even more, that we can find new ways to celebrate the history of our ancestors,’’ says Dulac. He said that both his father, who was from the Maliseet, a Maine tribe, and his mother, whose ancestry is connected to Canadian tribes from the Montreal area, had Native American ancestors and that he is proud to be playing a role in keeping that tradition alive. Georgia Edwards of Laconia, who has been at every one of the Pow Wows since they started, said that she is happy to see the continued success of the event, which has become one of the largest in New England and usually draws about 2,000 people over the weekend. “It wasn’t very big when we started. But more people have found out about their Native American heritage and want to celebrate it at events like these,’’ said Edwards. Edwards, who is of either Blackfoot of Mic Mac ancestry, said that her Native American name is

Encarnacion’s bat lifts Jays over Sox
TORONTO (AP) — Edwin Encarnacion hit a tiebreaking double in the eighth inning and the Toronto Blue Jays rallied to deny Tim Wakefield his 200th career win, beating the Boston Red Sox 11-10 Wednesday night. Toronto trailed 8-6 heading into the eighth against Daniel Bard (2-6), who opened the inning by hitting Brett Lawrie and giving up a single to Adam Loewen, the former pitcher’s first career hit. J.P. Arencibia walked before Bard struck out Dewayne Wise and caught Yunel Escobar looking. But the Blue Jays tied it when Bard issued back-to-back walks to Eric Thames and Jose Bautista. Matt Albers came on and gave up a three-run double to Encarnacion. Encarnacion went 2 for 4 with a sacrifice fly and matched a career-high with five RBIs. Shawn Camp (4-3) pitched one inning for the win and Frank Francisco survived a two-run ninth to record his 13th save in 17 chances. Adrian Gonzalez led off the ninth with his 24th home run and David Ortiz singled, took second on a grounder and scored on a two-out hit by Marco Scutaro before pinch runner Mike Aviles was thrown out trying to steal second Jacoby Ellsbury homered and finished with four hits and Ortiz also went deep, but the Red Sox couldn’t give Wakefield his first win since July 24 against Seattle. Wakefield allowed five runs, four earned, and three hits in five innings. He walked three and struck out three. The Red Sox gave Wakefield an early lead by scoring three times in the first against Brandon Morrow. Kevin Youkilis was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded and Scutaro hit a two-run single to center. Toronto answered with a run in the bottom half on Encarnacion’s sacrifice fly, then tied it on J.P. Arencibia’s two-
run drive to center in the second. The homer was Arencibia’s 21st of the season, the most in a single season by a Blue Jays catcher. John Buck hit 20 homers for Toronto in 2010. The Blue Jays took a 5-3 lead by scoring twice in the third. Eric Thames was hit by a pitch, took second on a wild pitch and scored on Jose Bautista’s double. Two outs later, Brett Lawrie walked and Bautista stole third. Then, when Lawrie stole second, Bautista broke for home on catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia’s throw to second, sliding in ahead of a wide return throw from shortstop Scutaro. Bautista is the first player to steal home and hit at least 40 homers in the same season since Adam Dunn did it with Cincinnati in 2004. Boston reclaimed the lead with a four-run fourth. Josh Reddick hit an RBI double and Ellsbury drilled a three-run blast to right, his 25th. Ortiz made it 8-5 with a solo shot to right in the fifth, his 29th. Morrow (9-11) left after Youkilis followed with a single. The right-hander allowed eight runs and eight hits in 4 1-3 innings. Toronto cut it to 8-6 against Dan Wheeler in the seventh when Escobar hit a leadoff double and scored on a two-out base hit by Encarnacion. Notes: Boston RHP Josh Beckett (right ankle) was scheduled to rejoin the team Wednesday after traveling back to Boston Tuesday to visit doctors. ... Red Sox RHP Clay Buchholz (back) made 60 throws at over 100 feet Wednesday. He’ll take Thursday off, then throw from 120 feet Friday. ... Loewen made his major league debut as a position player. A former pitcher with Baltimore, elbow injuries forced Loewen off the mound in July, 2008. He’s been playing in Toronto’s minor league system since 2009.
from preceding page the annual Pow Wow. Among that younger generation is Brian Sulesky of New Ipswich, vice president of LIHA, who said that he wasn’t aware of his Native American heritage until he was about 16 and stopped at an Indian crafts shop in Laconia and was told by its owner “You’re one of the people,’’ as he entered the store. “He recognized my Native American traits. So I talked with my father about it and found out that he was from the Me’tis, those who are not fully Native American, and that my great-grandmother was a full-blooded Pequaket from Fryeburg, Maine. My mother is part Mohawk. It filled me with a great deal of pride to know that. It made me understand where I’m from and let me know the history of my family,” says Sulesky. He said that he looks forward every year to the Pow Wows and that when he becomes president of LIHA he will be working to strengthen them in future years and find new ways to bring younger people into the organization and build for the future. His father, Robert Sulesky of Roch-
ester, has been teaching Indian crafts for 15 years and selling for about five years at Pow Wows in the Northeast. “There’s a new regime coming in, a younger group with a lot of good ideas for bringing the Pow Wow back to where it used to be by getting more people involved,” says Sulesky. Among those taking part in the Pow Wow was Jane Goodwin of Sanbornton, whose late husband, Todd, persuaded Dulac to host the first Pow Wow 41 years ago. She’s from upstate New York originally and has Native American ancestry but is uncertain over which tribe. “I was adopted and all those records were sealed, so I’ve never been able to trace my ancestry,’’ she said. Paul Burke of Ossipee, who in past years has served as chairman of the Pow Wow, said that new members are frequently adopted into a Native American tribe after a death. He himself has been adopted into the Omaha tribe in Nebraska. “Indians look at adoption differently. Once you’re adopted you have all kinds of relatives. They look at family as a whole, not just blood relations,’’ says Burke.

SANBORNTON — John Thomas LaBrecque, 83, a longtime Sanbornton resident died unexpectedly but peacefully at his home, Monday, September 5, 2011. John was born in Northumberland, NH, June 19, 1928, son of the late Aime and Maude (Martel) LaBrecque. He spent his youth in the North Woodstock-Lincoln area. Following high school he went on to receive an electrical engineering degree from Northeastern University. He later moved to Nashua with his wife and children. He worked as a licensed electrical engineer and general manager at Sanders Associates in Nashua for over 25 years, retiring in 1984. He and his family summered in Sanbornton for several years before moving there permanently 26 years ago.

He especially enjoyed gambling with family and friends. John’s life was dedicated to helping friends and family and making the quality of everyone else’s life around him better. He was cherished and will be missed by many. A U.S. Army Veteran, John was the recipient of the Army of Occupation Medal, Japan, and later was called back to serve during the Korean Conflict. He was honorably discharged with the rank of Corporal. He was also a deeply religious man and a parishioner of St. Mary of the Assumption Church in Tilton.

More than 50 instrumentalists and 100 singers, professional and amateur, are expected to participate in the concert, including the PSU Chamber Singers and the University Chorale, and many PSU alumni.

Pooch Café LOLA
By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There are some things in your life that you haven’t thought to question until recently. Now you’re filled with questions, and you will find answers as you bring your quiet and luminous gaze to the moon. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You will be analyzing someone’s contributions and interactions with you. To you, it feels like the kindness this person shows is motivated by fundamentally selfish reasons, and you may very well be right. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Parenthood, friendship and romance are not normally classified as competitive events. However, today presents an interesting scenario. If it’s not a competition, you don’t know what is. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). What you consider to be trivial, someone else considers to be deeply profound and personal. You are aware of these differences in opinion and will tread carefully. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You are even more resilient than usual and will shake off the troubles of yesterday and come bounding into brand-new troubles that are far more interesting, exciting and glamorous. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 8). This year sees you becoming a master of your time. You’ll make meaningful connections this fall, and many hours will be spent with a special loved one. October brings a happy development in the realm of health. A work cycle ends in December, and new exciting projects start in 2011. April and August are ideal for travel. Pisces and Aries people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 20, 14, 38, 11 and 27.
by Darby Conley
ARIES (March 21-April 19). It will be easy for you to think of others. You’ll be treated with the respect you deserve, largely because you are so respectful of everyone with whom you have dealings. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). When you look back on what you once thought was a huge problem, you can’t believe how complicated it seemed. Once a problem is solved, the solution seems so obvious. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Don’t be too timid to ask for help. The more you involve others in your process the more cooperation you will receive. By asking for help, you will give others the opportunity to do something they will later be proud of. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Keep your energy contained. Don’t let friends lead you off your path. Stay focused. Instead of doing a million different tasks and being busy, do one task a million times and be successful. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You may find it challenging to stick to your schedule. Much of it just doesn’t sound appealing to you anymore. You crave new and exciting twists. Your association with a Gemini could provide just what you need. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You are highly imaginative and will benefit from pursuing your artistic whims. Be careful not to seek a metaphysical explanation for a problem that could be solved easily through practical means. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You will find inspiration as you withdraw from the mainstream and investigate new venues. You may do this via the Internet, though it will be more motivating to talk to people face to face and see an environment first hand.

––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Thursday, Sept. 8, the 251st day of 2011. There are 114 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Sept 8, 1941, the 900-day Siege of Leningrad by German forces began during World War II. On this date: In 1892, an early version of “The Pledge of Allegiance,” written by Francis Bellamy, appeared in “The Youth’s Companion.” In 1900, Galveston, Texas, was struck by a hurricane that killed an estimated 8,000 people. In 1921, Margaret Gorman, 16, of Washington, D.C., was crowned the first “Miss America” in Atlantic City, N.J. In 1935, Sen. Huey P. Long, D-La., was shot and mortally wounded inside the Louisiana State Capitol; he died two days later. (The assailant was identified as Dr. Carl Weiss, who was gunned down by Long’s bodyguards.) In 1951, a peace treaty with Japan was signed by 49 nations in San Francisco. In 1971, the John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts made its official debut in Washington, D.C., with a performance of Leonard Bernstein’s (BUHRN’-stynz) “Mass.” In 1974, President Gerald R. Ford granted an unconditional pardon to former President Richard Nixon. In 1994, a USAir Boeing 737 crashed into a ravine as it was approaching Pittsburgh International Airport, killing all 132 people on board. One year ago: BP took some of the blame for the Gulf oil disaster in an internal report, acknowledging among other things that it had misinterpreted a key pressure test of the well, but also assigned responsibility to its partners on the doomed rig. Allen Dale June, one of the 29 original Navajo code talkers of World War II, died in Prescott, Ariz., at age 91. Today’s Birthdays: Comedian Sid Caesar is 89. Ventriloquist Willie Tyler is 71. Actor Alan Feinstein is 70. Pop singer Sal Valentino (The Beau Brummels) is 69. Author Ann Beattie is 64. Cajun singer Zachary Richard (ree-SHARD’) is 61. Musician Will Lee (“Late Show with David Letterman”) is 59. Actress Heather Thomas is 54. Singer Aimee Mann is 51. Pop musician David Steele (Fine Young Cannibals) is 51. Actor Thomas Kretschmann is 49. Rhythm-andblues singer Marc Gordon (Levert) is 47. Gospel singer Darlene Zschech (chehk) is 46. Alternative country singer Neko (NEE’koh) Case is 41. TV personality Brooke Burke is 40. Actor Martin Freeman is 40. Actor Henry Thomas is 40. Actor David Arquette is 40. Rock musician Richard Hughes (Keane) is 36. Actor Larenz Tate is 36.

Former agriculture commissioner Steve Taylor to Registration Sept. 12 for Magic Blades discuss Grange movement in Moultonborough skating club
Magic Blades skaters Lynnie Auger, Erica Markson, Jenna Galligan, Leslie Shattuck, Maggie DeVoy and Olivia MacLean prepare for last February’s show Movie Magic.
TILTON — The Magic Blades Figure Skating Club will open for its fifth year in the Tilton School Ice Arena with a free skate and registration on Monday, Sept. 12 from 6-7 p.m. Bring used skates and dresses to sell and or swap. Magic Blades will run three six-week sessions on Mondays, 6-7 p.m. beginning on Sept. 19. Tuition for six weeks is $75 and includes a 30 minute lesson, and 30 minutes of practice ice. The second session will begin on Nov., 7, ending before the holidays, and the final session will begin on Jan. 2. Contact Magic Blades via e-mail info@magicblades. org or call Barbara Adams at 744-9872 for registration information, or visit magicblades.org.
MOULTONBOROUGH — Steve Taylor, former commissioner of the New Hampshire Agriculture Department, will talk about “New Hampshire’s Grange Movement: Its Rise, Triumphs, and Decline.” at the next meeting of the Moultonborough Historical Society on Monday, September 12. The meeting will be held at the Moultonborough Public Library program and starts at 7 p.m. Much ofl New Hampshire in the late 19th century was locked in a downward spiral of population decline, abandonment of farms, reversion of cleared land to forest and shrinking of villages, all of which contributed to widespread feelings of melancholy and loss among its residents. The development of the Grange movement in the state in the 1880s and 1890s was aided greatly by people’s hunger for a new vehicle to draw communities together for social interaction, entertainment and mutual support. As the Grange rapidly established chapters throughout the state its influence in public affairs expanded greatly as well, such that by 1910 it had become a major force in policymaking
in Concord, while many of its members had risen to important leadership positions, including that of governor. The Grange brought an agenda that aligned closely with the Progressive wave that swept New Hampshire politics in the early 20th century and many of the initiatives it advocated became law, placing the state at the leading edge in a number of areas of reform. Moultonborough, Grange #197 was organized in 1893, and for over 100 years provided many community improvements, including public suppers, plays, displays at Sandwich Fair, rolling bandages during wartime, sponsoring vitamin pills for school children, sponsoring 4-H, girl scout and boy scout programs, giving stuffed animals to the Shriner’s hospital and to the local police to be given to children in distress, planting trees and shrubs, and much more. the Grange building, located next to the Foss Agency, now belongs to the Moultonborough Historical Society. This free lecture is open to the public, and will address the rise, the triumphs and the eventual decline of the Grange movement in New Hampshire.
M’borough grange will be open before history program
MOULTONBOROUGH — The Moultonborough Grange, now owned and cared for by the Moultonborough Historical Society, will be open on Monday, September 12 prior to a program on the New Hampshire Grange movement at the town library. The lecture by Steve Taylor, jointly sponsored by the Moultonborough Public Library and the historical society, will give the history and context of the Grange movement in New Hampshire. The Moultonborough Grange, active until just a few years ago, is preserved just as it was when it closed its doors.
The historical society feels that it is appropriate to open those doors so that the public attending the lecture can experience for themselves what a historic grange looks and feels like. The Grange will be open on Monday evening, from 6:15 to just before 7 when the program gets underway at the library. For more information on the Moultonborough Historical Society check the web site at www.moultonboroughhistory.org.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Annie: When I divorced three years ago, my ex-husband and I worked out a visitation schedule whereby he gets our children three weekends a month. Now that our older child is 13, she is involved with a great many extracurricular activities and has a busy social life. “Sydney” has canceled quite a few weekends with her father in order to do other things. Now he is accusing me of withholding visitation. Last spring, Sydney signed up for a musical stage production that included twice-a-week practices and two weekend shows in a row. She told her father I was “forcing” her to do the show, even though she knew when she signed up that the production was dependent on her and she couldn’t miss too much time. She wanted to do it. My ex believes I am to blame for all the canceled weekends. In addition, Sydney always has to call her father on those weekends she stays home. She often gets his voicemail, and then he gets angry that he hasn’t spoken to her. When I ask why he doesn’t call her back, he claims he’s too busy. In the past three years, he has never called once. When he needs to make pick-up arrangements, he has his girlfriend do it. It is frustrating being responsible for initiating contact between my daughter and her father, and I am sick and tired of hearing him complain. Sydney is a teenager, and I rarely get to see her myself. Isn’t there some kind of loophole that says a teenager can refuse visitation? Can I tell him to shut up and get a lawyer so my daughter can tell a judge what she wants? -- Not Withholding the Child Dear Not: Well, we don’t recommend the “shut up” part. Visitation schedules are often altered as children get older. When ex-spouses can set aside their differences for the child’s sake, this can be worked out amicably. Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to be the case for you. Part of the problem is that Sydney doesn’t want her father to think ill of her, so she gives
the impression that you are to blame. She should learn to take responsibility for her decisions. And her parents should talk this over with a mediator. Dear Annie: Once a week, a group of us gets together to play games at one of our houses. When the phone rings, the hostess will usually let it go to voicemail. However, at one home, the hostess not only answers the phone, but she proceeds to have a long conversation with the caller. She often gets several calls during the time we’re there. Those playing have to sit and wait for her to finish. As far as we can tell, none of these calls is an emergency or anything that couldn’t wait until the rest of us have gone home. Would you comment on this, please? -- Interrupted Dear Interrupted: When you invite guests to your home, it is rude to allow non-emergency phone calls to repeatedly interfere with socializing. One of you should take the woman aside and ask her to please stop doing this. Or, when she picks up the next call, say, “Oh, Doris, since you’re going to be talking, we’ll just play your hand for you.” That should shorten the conversation substantially. Dear Annie: I hope you have room for one more letter about the efficacy of counseling. After extricating myself from an abusive marriage, I sought help from a professional. But I found it confusing, frustrating and ineffective. My counselor insisted that I had done absolutely nothing wrong in our marriage and my husband was 100 percent responsible for the disaster. But, how could that be? I am far from perfect. It did not benefit me to think that way. I know counselors should be supportive and affirming, but this was ridiculous. The counselor ended up having no credibility in my eyes. -- Didn’t Need It
