Town holds $90k mortgage balance on Kimball Castle GILFORD — The town of Gilford initially sold Kimball Castle with a 24-acre parcel of land for $116,000 in 1999. Town Administrator Scott Dunn said yesterday that the town holds the mortgage and Dave Jodoin, the president of Kimball Castle Properties, LLC, owes $90,000 on the balance. The castle was initially sold to Historic Inns of New England and Jodoin was one of the three owners. When the company folded, Jodoin formed see CASTLE page 8

Belknap Commissioners announce they’ll take a second look at county jail options & will expand advisory group BY ROGER AMSDEN FOR THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — Faced with virtually unanimous opposition to a proposed $42.5 million price tag for a new county correctional facility, Belknap County Commissioners Wednesday
morning said they want to take a second look at the jail planning process. ‘’We’re taking a step backwards to see what other options are available,’’ said Commissioner Ed Philpot (D-Laconia), who chairs the county’s Jail
Planning Committee, which has been working for three years to come up with a plan to address the problems with the current facility. As part of that process the commission is looking to expand the membership of the
Community Advisory Committee, which was formed last year to provide public input into the jail planning process. ‘’We have a list of people we would like on that committee and we’re getting in contact see JAIL page 7

Performance pay and teacher contracts have long been a battle ground between teachers’ unions and school administrators. While it has been a long time since the subject of performance pay was broached openly in Laconia, it nonetheless hit a nerve with other board members and retired teacher and former teachers’ union president Richard Coggon, who was in the audience.

Man beaten to death with a hammer in Brockton
BROCKTON, Mass. (AP) — Police are investigating a fatal hammer attack on a 74-year-old Brockton man family members said was a minister on his way to visit his daughter. Police responded to calls about an injured man on Clinton Street at about 8:45 p.m. Tuesday. Plymouth District Attorney Timothy Cruz said Lee Harmon was found with “massive head wounds” and a gash to the lower right arm. He was pronounced dead at a hospital. Cruz said Wednesday the exact cause of Harmon’s death would be determined by autopsy. Broadcast reports said a hammer was recovered at the scene. Family members and friends said Harmon was a Pentecostal minister with seven children and several grandchildren. They said he was riding his bicycle to visit his disabled daughter. Witnesses told investigators they heard a crash and commotion, then breaking glass and a verbal confrontation.

For WikiLeaks, Pfc. Manning gets 35 years in prison FORT MEADE, Md. (AP) — Army Pfc. Bradley Manning stood at attention in his crisp dress uniform Wednesday and learned the price he will pay for spilling an unprecedented trove of government secrets: up to 35 years in prison, the stiffest punishment ever handed out in the U.S. for leaking to the media. Flanked by his lawyers, Manning, 25, showed no reaction as military judge Col. Denise Lind announced the sentence without explanation in a proceeding that lasted
just a few minutes. A gasp could be heard among the spectators, and one woman buried her face in her hands. Then, as guards hurried Manning out of the courtroom, about a half-dozen supporters shouted from the back: “We’ll keep fighting for you, Bradley!” and “You’re our hero!” With good behavior and credit for the more than three years he has been held, Manning could be out in as little as seven years, said his lawyer, David Coombs. The
soldier was also demoted and will be dishonorably discharged. The sentencing fired up the long-running debate over whether Manning was a whistleblower or a traitor for giving more than 700,000 classified military and diplomatic documents, plus battlefield footage, to the anti-secrecy website WikiLeaks. By volume alone, it was the biggest leak of classified material in U.S. history, bigger even than the Pentagon Papers a generation ago. see MANNING page 7
Hassan tells court ‘illegal war’ provoked his Ford Hood rampage
FORT HOOD, Texas (AP) — American soldiers deploying overseas to “engage in an illegal war” provoked the deadly shooting rampage at Fort Hood in 2009, the soldier accused in the attack said Wednesday after refusing to mount a defense during his trial. Maj. Nidal Hasan could face the death penalty if convicted for the attack that killed 13 people and wounded more than
30 others at the Texas military base. But when given the chance to rebut prosecutors’ lengthy case — which included nearly 90 witnesses and hundreds of pieces of evidence — the Army psychiatrist declined. About five minutes after court began Wednesday, a day after prosecutors rested their case, the judge asked Hasan how he wanted to proceed. Hasan, who is acting as his own attorney, said: “The defense rests.”
But after jurors were dismissed, Hasan told the judge, Col. Tara Osborn, that the jury shouldn’t have the option of convicting him on the lesser charge of voluntary manslaughter. “I would like to agree with the prosecution that it wasn’t done under the heat of sudden passion,” Hasan said. “There was adequate provocation — that these were see FORT HOOD page 5
WASHINGTON (AP) — The National Security Agency declassified three secret court opinions Wednesday showing how in one of its surveillance programs it scooped up as many as 56,000 emails and other communications by Americans not connected to terrorism annually over three
years, revealed the error to the court — which ruled its actions unconstitutional — and then fixed the problem. Director of National Intelligence James Clapper authorized the release, part of which Obama administration officials acknowledged Wednesday was prodded by
a 2011 lawsuit filed by an Internet civil liberties activist group. The court opinions show that when the NSA reported its inadvertent gathering of American-based Internet traffic to the court in September 2011, the Foreign see NSA page 8

With construction bid now in line with budget, Gilford Town Hall renovation project will begin in Sept. By Gail OBer
THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
GILFORD — Selectmen have accepted a bid of $344,000 from a local construction company for the renovation of Town Hall scheduled to begin in September. The board made its decision at the August 14 meeting, two weeks after learning that all three bids for the Town Hall renovation came in substantially higher than the $350,000 approved by warrant at the March annual town meeting ballot vote. The lowest bid of $385,000 was submitted by PRB Construction and in late July, selectmen asked Town Administrator Scott Dunn to work with them to get a price that was at or below the amount approved by voters. “We are pleased to be able to award this contract to a local company that will be buying its material from local vendors,” Dunn said. Dunn said the biggest thing that had to be eliminated from PRB’s original bid is the sidewalks around the building. The other major change is the new steel roof will be installed on top of the existing roof rather than removing the shingles. Dunn said the structure can handle the weight of two roofs. The sidewalks will be included in a future Phase 2 project that would be scheduled for some time in 2016 or 2017 but only after the town completes its newest 10-year Capital Improvement Plan. He said there is about $362,000 in the capital reserve fund set aside for the Town Hall repairs. The biggest unknown, said Dunn, is the condition of the wood behind the siding. “The roof has been leaking for 20 years,” Dunn said. He said the project budget has set aside $4.25 for 90 sheets of plywood that would need remediation if they are rotten. He said the contractor won’t know if there is any rot until the siding is removed. The scheduled start date is September 9 and the projected completion date is December 20.

Tilton store robbed at gunpoint TILTON – Police were looking Wednesday night for a man who robbed a Rte. 3 convenience store at gunpoint in the middle of the afternoon. Police Chief Robert Cormier reported a man walked into the Tilton Shop Express store at 622 Laconia Road in the Winnisquam section of town at about 3:30 and demanded money. The clerk said the robber was wearing a mask and pointed a gun right at him.
The clerk handed the clerk the money that was in the cash resister and the thief fed on foot behind the store. The clerk described the suspect as a white male, tall and thin. He was wearing a dark colored, hooded sweatshirt, a dark mask and dark colored pants. Anyone having information about the incident is asked to contact the Tilton Police Department at 286-4442 or the Tip Line at 855-286-6565.
FORT HOOD from page 2 deploying soldiers that were going to engage in an illegal war.” Prosecutors had no objection. “There’s not a shred of evidence to suggest the accused was acting under a heat of passion as he was committing the single largest mass murder on a U.S. military installation ever,” Col. Steve Henricks, one of the prosecutors, told the judge. The exchange came during a lateafternoon hearing, hours after Osborn adjourned jurors for the day. Closing arguments are scheduled to begin Thursday in the court-martial, the military’s equivalent of a trial, though it’s unclear whether Hasan plans to say anything. So far, he has made no attempt to prove his innocence. He has questioned just three witnesses, and the only piece of evidence he submitted was a favorable evaluation he received from a former supervisor a few days before the attack. So his simple declaration Wednesday abdicating a defense wasn’t much
of a surprise. “I think it’s consistent with everything he’s done. I think what he’s trying to do in this court-martial is passively manifest his disdain for the Army and our system of justice,” said Geoffrey Corn, a South Texas College of Law professor who has been following the case. Corn, who taught the lead prosecutor in Hasan’s case, also speculated that Hasan would wait until after he was convicted to address jurors. “In the military system during sentencing, the defendant can make an unsworn statement, which means he can’t be cross-examined,” Corn said. “I think he doesn’t want to be crossexamined because he doesn’t want anybody to contest his distorted version of what he thinks is right.” Hasan, an American-born Muslim, began the trial with a brief opening statement acknowledging that evidence would “clearly show” he was the man who opened fire inside a medical building at Fort Hood on Nov. 5, 2009.

Who owns Egypt’s future? In the near term, bet on the men with the guns. The Egyptian Army, being slowly squeezed out of its central role in the nation’s life by Mohammed Morsi, waited for the moment to oust the elected president and crush his Muslim Brotherhood. Morsi was deposed and arrested, and the Brotherhood leaders rounded up and jailed. Their Cairo encampments were cleansed by gunfire. Hundreds of brothers were cut down and killed, and thousands wounded. Gen. Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, gazing into his mirror, must see Col. Gamal Abdel Nasser gazing back. In the near term, the Brotherhood is in disarray. It backed the Arab Spring, heeded America’s call for free elections, and won parliament and the presidency, only to have the army, with America’s backing, overthrow its Islamist government in a military coup. If the Brotherhood feels betrayed, if it believes its sons who opposed the coup died as martyrs, if it has concluded that the Americans, with their endless blather about democracy, are duplicitous hypocrites, are they entirely wrong? In the short term, America must get on with the generals. For it is they who bottle up Hamas in Gaza, battle al-Qaida in Sinai, protect the Christian Copts, grant our Air Force overflight rights and our Navy firstin-line transit rights through the Suez Canal. And it is the generals who continue to honor the terms of the Camp David accords. Understandably, Israeli diplomats are imploring us, the slaughter aside, not to cut our ties to the Egyptian military. Yet it is hard to believe the long-term future belongs to the generals. Looking back, of all the forces unleashed by the Arab Spring, the Facebook-Twitter crowd calling for secular democracy harvested the greatest publicity. But even then, other forces seemed to have deeper and broader roots in the hearts and minds of the masses. Those forces: tribalism, nationalism and Islamism. The generals may work hand-inglove with the Israelis. But antiZionism remains one of the few rallying cries that can unite secularist and Islamist, Sunni and Shia. And as the Jews have been expelled from the Arab world, today it is the turn of the Christians. They have seen priests murdered, churches torched and congregations massacred in Iraq, Syria, Egypt and beyond, in Ethiopia and Nigeria — by extremists who cite the Quran for what they are doing. And after the Jews and Christians are gone, it is likely to be the turn of the Americans. Why? First, the Americans are seen as standing behind Israel’s regional superiority and dominance of the Palestinian Arabs. Second, while we defend our wars
in Afghanistan and Iraq as liberations from dictatorship and obscurantism, they are seen over there as America using her power to impose upon these nations our institutions and our ideology. And while America’s achievements may inspire awe, America’s culture, suffused with feminist and Hollywood values, evokes revulsion. Millions of Muslims are willing to die to keep America and American values out of their societies. How many Americans are willing to fight and die over there to force them on Arab peoples? Third, there is a growing confidence in the Islamic world that the future belongs to them. Whence comes this confidence? Western peoples are dying, as Muslim populations are exploding and Muslim migrants are pouring into Europe and the United States. While Islam is booming in the East and being welcomed in the West, Christianity is dying in the West and being expelled from the East. It is not unreasonable for Muslim visionaries to see the next 500 years as an era of Islamic ascendancy, as the last 500 saw a Western ascendancy. Fourth, while Egypt’s army has the guns and, temporarily, the banner of patriotism, it has no faith, no philosophy, no ideology to justify an indefinite hold on power. When, like Hosni Mubarak, this generation of generals is seen as incompetent and repressive, upon what do they fall back to justify their legitimacy to the next crowd in Tahrir Square? Indeed, this is America’s dilemma. When Japan attacked and Adolf Hitler declared war, and when Josef Stalin set out to dominate the world, all we held dear — faith, family, freedom, country — said resist. When Osama bin Laden took down our towers, we united to take down him and al-Qaida. Millions of Muslims are willing to fight to drive us out of their part of the world. How many Americans are willing to send our sons to die for secular democracy and American values in their part of the world? After World War II, when communists captured the banner of nationalism, they were on the move in China, Vietnam, Cuba. When Ronald Reagan recaptured the banners of nationalism in Angola, Afghanistan and Eastern Europe, suddenly it was the communists on the run. Ethnonationalism and religious fundamentalism tore apart the British, French and Soviet empires. All are working now against the U.S. Imperium. The generals in Egypt won this round. But is there any doubt as to which way the wind is blowing? (Syndicated columnist Pat Buchanan has been a senior advisor to three presidents, twice a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination and the presidential nominee of the Reform Party in 2000.)
LETTERS Dumb & dumber people are again saying the darnedest things To The Daily Sun, Well, its August, which is the silly season in politics. Dumb and dumber people say the darnedest things. The right has gone apoplectic about Obamacare being implemented and lunatics are still off and riding in their birther clown cars. Ted Cruz, with Louie Gohmert close on his heels, has replaced Michele Bachmann as the most ridiculous person in DC and the American Taliban’s abortion bills are now 0-6 in the courts this year. Tod Kincannon who is was director of the South Carolina GOP tweeted that Muslims worship Satan and the National Institute of Drug Abuse recently denied that marijuana is less toxic than alcohol. “Ex-gay” therapist Jerry Mungadze told televangelist Benny Hinn he can identify someone possessed by demons based on what colors a person chose when coloring in a drawing of a brain. Paul Taylor of Creation Today recently stated that Tyrannosauruses were not created to eat meat and Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker’s police state is arresting people for singing in Madison
protests. Tea Party extremists are encouraging young people not to sign up for Obamacare and Ted Cruz was just wildly heckled for having government health care while preaching the defunding of Obamacare. Sean “Inanity” Hannity will lose both his TV and radio slots and Ed Schultz is returning to MSNBC’s nightly lineup at 5 p.m. due to popular demand. North Carolina House Majority Leader Paul Stam told June Atkinson, the state’s superintendent of public instruction that “She should stick to her own knitting” and California Tea Partier Rep. Tom McClintock asserted that there is no crime on Wall Street because bankers don’t use guns. Finally, in this edition of Bobby Jindal’s Party of Stupid, Mike Huckabee and James Inhofe say climate change isn’t a threat because “God is still up there” and N.H.’s Bill O’Brien once again made a complete jackass of himself by comparing Obamacare to the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850.

Enemy is government blinded by unrealistic green energy promises To The Daily Sun, Citizens of Grafton County are valiantly fighting the same battle that is turning rural New Hampshire communities into industrialized energy zones. Our common enemy is the government — blinded by unrealistic green energy promises of the wind industry. It’s past time to take this fight to the courts, where we can restore democracy and protect rural Central New Hampshire from violations under our New Hampshire Constitution. Simple common law rights with enjoyment of our property. Our “Rights and Freedoms” are being legislated away with the erection of these man-made monstrosities. I urge you to turn your attention toward N.H. politicians and our “Queen of Green” Governor, Maggie Hassan. Thousands of local residents have
written to their elected officials in Concord. The summer is almost over and only a three politicians dared to visit this beautiful lake and its proposed sites? What message are New Hampshire politicians sending us — they don’t care? Nevertheless, both wind developers and our N.H. government continue to site wind energy projects too close to our important watersheds and state wildlife areas. One thing is clear — large international wind energy corporations have too much power. I view them as wind cartels, who are bad actors, who try to suspend the laws of supply and demand, exclude competition and gouge their customers. This is not the New Hampshire way!

Having Belknap County towns pay directly for belonging to Mutual Fire Aid will find some paying more & some less but it’s complicated for Tilton & Northfield By Michael Kitch
LACONIA — With Belknap County likely to strike the annual appropriation for its 11 municipalities belonging to the Lakes Region Mutual Fire Aid Association (LRMFAA) from its 2014 budget, the cost of membership would rise for some and fall for others while Tilton and Northfield, who share a fire district, could fund themselves haggling over the tab. The LRMFAA manages emergency communications, coordinates mutual assistance and provides training programs for 36 municipal fire departments operating across 1,500 square miles in all or part of half the state’s 10 counties. The organization originated in 1951 with a handful of towns in Belknap County, but has never been an agency of county government., although all 11 of its municipalities belong to the LRMFAA. The LRFMAA is governed by a board of directors composed of the fire chiefs from the member municipalities, four of whom are elected to an executive committee. The executive committee prepares and adopts an annual budget then distributes the cost among the member municipalities. The municipalities are assessed by a formula consisting of the sum of three factors. A fixed charge, representing 36 equal shares of one-tenth of the total budget, accounts for 10 percent of the assessment. A valuation factor, calculated by dividing 40 percent of the budget by the total assessed property value of 36 municipalities and multiplying the evaluation of each municipality by the result, represents
40 percent of the assessment. The remaining 50 percent of the assessment is based on a population factor, calculated by dividing half the budget by the aggregate population of all 36 municipalities and multiplying the population of each municipality by the result. The 25 municipalities in Carroll, Grafton, Merrimack and Strafford counties are billed directly by the LRMFAA in accordance with the formula. However, Laconia and the 10 towns of Belknap County have long been treated differently. They are not being billed directly by LRMFAA. Instead, their total share of its budget is included in the county budget, apportioned among them based solely on their share of the total assessed property valuation of the county and paid through the county property tax. In other words, the county acts only as a collection agency. Although severing the relationship between the county and LRMFAA has arisen in the past, the issue came to a head this year when Meredith and Center Harbor asked to be billed directly. County Administrator Debra Shackett explained that if any municipality in the county is billed directly, all must be billed directly, since whatever amount is included in the county budget would be incorporated in the county tax rate levied on all 11 municipalities. “The towns that opted to be billed directly,” she said, “would be billed twice, once by the LRMFA and once by the county. “ If the LRMFAA’s budget is stripped from the county budget and the 11 municipalities are billed directly, they
would pay the same total amount, but the shares would be distributed differently. Based on the LRMFAA’s requested budget, this year the share of the 11 municipalities was $554,037, distributed as follws: Alton $81,048, Barnstead $27,350, Belmont $34,381, Center Harbor $22,457, Gilford $88,631, Gilmanton $25,680, Laconia $106,731, Meredith $100,545, New Hampton $17,528, Sanbornton $22,072 and Tilton $27,614. Billed directly, according to the formula applied by the LRMFAA, four towns — all with extensive waterfront —would have paid less while Laconia and six towns would have paid more. The assessment to Alton would have been reduced by $18,922, to Center Harbor by $4,721, to Gilford by $14,326 and to Meredith by $25,445. On the other hand, the assessment to Laconia would have risen by $17,606, to Barnstead by $9,206, to Belmont by $18,290, to Gilmanton by $6,237, to New Hampton by $3,372, to Sanbornton by $4,527 and to Tilton by $4,176. The prospect of direct billing by the LRMFAA has breathed fresh life into a lingering issue between Tilton and Northfield, which share a common fire district. While Tilton has been billed through Belknap County, Northfield, which is in Merrimack County, has been billed directly. However, Glenn Smith, Northfield Town Administrator, said that the Board of Selectmen have consistently taken the position that the LRMFAA should bill the Tilton-Northfield Fire District, not the two towns. They note that the fire district, established in
1945, is a distinct entity, governed by an elected commission and annual meeting. The district, not the towns, he said, provides fire protection and emergency services. Smith described the different methods of billing the two towns as “an impediment to billing the district.” Pat Clark, who chairs the TiltonNorthfield First District Commission, agreed that the LRMFAA should bill the district, not the towns and acknowledged that removing the LRMFAA from the county budget presented an opportunity to address the issue. The district, he said, is responsible for providing fire protection, ambulance service and a water supply to both towns. Currently, Tilton bears 63-percent of the district’s annual budget and Northfield 37-perecent. Clark conceded that if LRMFAA billed the district directly, Tilton’s share of the district’s budget would rise, estimating the increase would fall between $9,000 and $10,000. He noted that if billed separately, each town would pay a fixed charge, but the district would pay only once. “It is a question of dollars and cents,” he said, anticipating that billing the district would encounter resistance from Tilton. But, he said “put in context it is not a lot of money and it might help in mending fences between the two communities.” Clark said that since the two towns voted to join the LRMFAA, warrant articles in the both as well as a vote of the fire district would be required to affect the transition, which probably could not take place before 2015.
JAIL from page one with them to see if they will become a part of the committee,’’ said County Administrator Debra Shackett, who indicated that some of those being asked to join are members of the Belknap County Convention. Several members of the convention, which is composed of the 18 elected legislators from the towns and city in the county, were critical of the jail planning process at a meeting last week in which a member of the public accused commissioners of neglecting the county jail in order to force the county to have to build a new one. Commissioner Steven Nedeau (RMeredith), said that nothing was further from the truth. ‘’We’ve been having public meetings for three years,’’ and said that it was important that people realize ‘’that doing nothing is not an option.’’ Nedeau said that during the whole process the commission has been aware that a new facility would most likely be needed. ‘’We don’t want to throw good money at the jail and later on have it torn down.’’ Shackett said that the the Jail Planning Committee has been considering six options and that after all of them have been vetted the committee will take a fresh look at what might be the best course for the county. ‘’It’s a good healthy process,’’ said Philpot, who said that one option which will most likely be off the table will be the closing of the current facility and
farming out all of the prisoners to other correctional facilities around the state. Shackett said that Strafford County has indicated a willingness to enter discussions about taking all of Belknap County’s prisoners but that would be at a much higher rate than the current daily charge which the county pays. She said that the Belknap County Correctional facility currently has 146 inmates, 26 of whom are being held in three different counties around the state. ‘’At 120 prisoners we’re maxed out,’’ said Shackett of the current jail’s capacity. Shackett said that the jail planning committee is considering switching its meetings from 4:30 on alternate Tuesday afternoons to 7 p.m. on Tuesday nights as well as having the meetings televised so that more people can be aware of the issues which are involved and become a part of the process. Philpot and the other commissioners said that they were not in favor of closing the county jail and sending inmates to other counties. ‘’What happens to a police officer in Center Harbor who makes an arrest and there’s no place to take them except Dover, which is 50 miles away?’’ asked Philpot, who said that local towns would incur extra costs for prisoner transportation, as would the Sheriff’s Department which would have to bring prisoners all the way from Dover to Belknap County for trials and then return them at the end of the day.
MANNING from page 2 In a statement from London, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange decried Manning’s trial and conviction as “an affront to basic concepts of Western justice.” But he called the sentence a “significant tactical victory” because the soldier could be paroled so quickly. Manning could have gotten 90 years behind bars. Prosecutors asked for at least 60 as a warning to other soldiers, while Manning’s lawyer suggested he get no more than 25, because some of the documents he leaked will be declassified by then. The case was part of an unprecedented string of prosecutions brought by the U.S. government in a crackdown on security breaches. The Obama administration has charged seven people with leaking to the media; only three people were prosecuted under all previous presidents combined. Manning, an Army intelligence analyst from Crescent, Okla., digitally copied and released Iraq and Afghanistan battlefield reports and State Department cables while working in 2010 in Iraq. He also leaked video of a 2007 Apache helicopter attack in Baghdad that mistakenly killed at least nine people, including a Reuters photographer. Manning said he did it to expose the U.S. military’s “bloodlust” and generate debate over the wars and U.S. policy. He was found guilty by the judge last month of 20 crimes, including six violations of the Espionage Act, but was acquitted of the most serious charge, aiding the enemy, which carried a
potential life in prison without parole. Whistleblower advocates said the punishment was unprecedented in its severity. Steven Aftergood of the Federation of American Scientists said “no other leak case comes close.” The American Civil Liberties Union, Amnesty International and other activists condemned the sentence. “When a soldier who shared information with the press and public is punished far more harshly than others who tortured prisoners and killed civilians, something is seriously wrong with our justice system,” said Ben Wizner, head of the ACLU’s speech and technology project. Gabriel Schoenfeld, a senior fellow at the conservative Hudson Institute think tank and author of the book “Necessary Secrets,” welcomed Manning’s punishment. “The sentence is a tragedy for Bradley Manning, but it is one he brought upon himself,” he said. “It will certainly serve to bolster deterrence against other potential leakers.” But he also warned that the sentence will ensure that Edward Snowden — the National Security Agency leaker who was charged with espionage in a potentially more explosive case while Manning’s court-martial was underway — “will do his best never to return to the United States and face a trial and stiff sentence.” Coombs said that he was in tears after the sentencing and that Manning comforted him.

Belmont wants to use part of mill space for welfare office but will need federal OK By Gail OBer
THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
BELMONT — Town officials are considering relocating the General Assistance Office to the space on the second floor of the Belmont Mill that was vacated last winter when the Lakes Region Community College Culinary Arts Program was forced to relocate. The college used the space on the second floor for offices and a classroom. Town Administrator Jeanne Beaudin told selectmen earlier this week that she is checking with the Community Development Finance Authority to see if relocating the welfare office is an acceptable use of the space that was renovated using a $1 million USDA Community Development Block Grant. Beaudin explained that because the Belmont Mill was restored with a federal grant there are accepted uses for the space in the building and according to the terms of the grant received by Belmont, at least
51 percent of the total renovated space must serve low-to-moderate income people. “We’re not supposed to use the space for town facilities,” she said, saying the selectmen are hoping the estimated $200,000 needed from the town to fix the structural deficiencies in the mill would be an acceptable token of good will for a change of use, in the eyes of the federal grant administrator. Initially, officials thought they would be able to relocate the Department of Parks and Recreation to the second floor space but said it would be difficult to quantify how many people who participate in townsponsored recreation program were low-income. Beaudin believes the general assistance program meets the criteria of the grant. If the CDFA gives it seal of approval, it is likely the Recreation Department would use the bottom floor of the Corner Meeting House and the former
TEACHER PAY from page one directly to performance pay, he was critical of the School Board for freezing teacher pay for the past three years “in order to keep the City Council happy.” “This is what happens when people go three years without a raise,” Coggon told the board. Other school board members looked uneasy when Persson made his statement during the board member comment period, which happens at the end of the meeting. Performance pay was not on the agenda. Persson is the newest member of the Laconia School Board, elected in November of last year. “The only thing we can do is look at slots within the (confines) of the teacher’s contract,” said School Board Chair Joe Cormier, who has been negotiating union contracts as a member of the School Board for 11 years. Laconia’s collective bargaining agreement with its teachers’ union — typical to the industry — currently allows for only two factors to be taken into consideration when determining salary: 1. the number of years a teachers has been working in the
district, and 2. the number of credit hours of postgraduate education the teacher has earned, assuming a Bachelors degree as a given. Cormier said the wage freeze implemented over the past few years was city-wide and was not specific to the schools. “Leaving a school is the result of freezing salaries,” Coggon continued. “You liked the idea to please the City Council.” Coggon also cautioned that if the School Board was going to head down the path suggested by Persson, the should check first with School District attorney Paul Fitzgerald before “they all end up in Concord.” Cormier fired back by saying the district went through the city-wide freeze with the agreement of all three unions that represent different groups of employees within the School District. He said employee departures are an “inherent risk” in any school districts with close neighbors because somebody always pays at little better. Persson said yesterday that his goal is not to cut teacher salaries but for the district to have the ability to reward extraordinary teachers.
CASTLE from page one a new company, Kimball Castle Properties, LLC and continued paying the mortgage. Dunn said the terms of the mortgage were $1,500 a year for the first five years, $2,000 a year for the second five years, and $2,500 a year for the remainder of balance of which there have been two years of payments. It was a 40-year loan and all of the proceeds go into the Kimball Castle Trust which is overseen by selectmen, who are advised by the Kimball Castle Wildlife Committee. At the public hearing last week regarding the future of the castle and its immediate environs, there were differing amounts recalled by some of those who spoke.
Selectmen are reviewing a proposal by Jodoin to change the terms of the charitable gift made by Charlotte Kimball so that he can tear down the castle and make some changes to the easements. If selectmen and Jodoin reach some kind of agreement, it must be sent to the Office of the Attorney General and be approved by the Belknap County Superior Court before anything can be changed. Charlotte Kimball gave the land to the town for wildlife observation and education and it is a condition of the charitable trust. The town’s building inspector condemned the building and ordered that it be torn down or that a fence be erected that would prevent people from entering it.
NSA from page 2 Intelligence Surveillance Court ordered the agency to find ways to limit what it collects and how long it keeps it. In an 85-page declassified FISA court ruling from October 2011, U.S. District Judge James D. Bates rebuked government lawyers for repeatedly misrepresenting the operations of the NSA’s surveillance programs. “This court is troubled that the government’s revelations regarding NSA’s acquisition of Internet transactions mark the third instance in less than three years in which the government has disclosed a substantial misrepresentation regarding the scope of a major collection program,” Bates wrote in a footnoted passage that had portions heavily blacked out in the government’s disclosure. The NSA had moved to revise its Internet surveillance in an effort to separate out domestic data from its foreign targeted metadata — which includes email addresses and subject lines. But in his October 2011 ruling, Bates ruled that the government’s “upstream” collection of data — taken from internal
U.S. data sources — was unconstitutional. Three senior U.S. intelligence officials said Wednesday that national security officials realized the extent of the NSA’s inadvertent collection of Americans’ data from fiber optic cables in September 2011. One of the officials said the problem became apparent during internal discussions between NSA and Justice Department officials about the program’s technical operation. “They were having a discussion and a light bulb went on,” the official said. The problem, according to the officials, was that the top secret Internet-sweeping operation, which was targeting metadata contained in the emails of foreign users, was also amassing thousands of emails that were bundled up with the targeted materials. Because many web mail services use such bundled transmissions, the official said, it was impossible to collect the targeted materials without also sweeping up data from innocent domestic U.S. users. The officials did not explain why they did not prepare for that possibility when the surveillance prosee next page
Winnisquam Fire Station could be vacated. Should the CDFA not agree to the program shift, the other alternative is to reimburse the federal government in the amount of $21,600, which is calculated by dividing the total grant of $1 million by 20, or the years in the payback period. That leaves $50,000 annually that must be paid back over the next six years because the grant is 14-years old. Seven percent of $50,000 represents the amount of total space that would be used by a non-qualifying agency or $3,600 which is multiplied by the six years remaining in the payback period, or $21,600. Beaudin said she expects an answer regarding the change of use from the CDFA before the next selectman’s meeting. She said she is also meeting with the directors of General Assistance and the Parks and Recreation Department to see if the proposed new spaces are a good fit for their clientele.
Soldier’s brother testifies for defense in Army’s Afghan massacre trial
JOINT BASE LEWIS-MCCHORD, Wash. (AP) — A brother of the U.S. soldier who slaughtered 16 Afghan civilians last year began making the case Wednesday for why he should one day be eligible for parole, portraying him as a patriotic American and indulgent father who let his son put ranch dressing on chocolate chip pancakes. “There’s no better father that I’ve seen,” William Bales said of his younger brother, Staff Sgt. Robert Bales. “If you brought the kids in here today, they’d run right to him.” Sgt. Bales, 39, pleaded guilty in June in a deal to avoid the death penalty, acknowledging that he killed 16 people, mostly women and children, during unsanctioned, solo, pre-dawn raids on two villages March 11, 2012. A jury is deciding whether he should be sentenced to life in prison with the possibility of parole, or without it. The picture painted by the first defense witness, William Bales, 55, severely contradicted that portrayed by the soldier’s admissions as well as by the testimony of nine Afghan villagers, including victims and their relatives, about the horror Bales wrought. Defense attorneys hope the contrast will convince jurors that Bales simply snapped after four combat deployments and deserves leniency. William Bales repeatedly referred to his sibling — once the captain of his high school football team and class president in Norwood, Ohio, where they grew up — as “my baby brother” and “Bobby.” He described how as a teenager his brother cared for a developmentally disabled neighborhood boy, assisting him with basic life functions. The boy’s father also testified how helpful Bales was. “I don’t know too many 16-, 17-year-old boys who could do that,” William Bales said. He also described how the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, changed “good-time Bobby” and how he soon thereafter enlisted in the Army. Prosecutors noted, however, that Bales was also facing a fraud lawsuit when he enlisted. An arbitrator eventually imposed a $1.5 million judgment against Bales and his former stockbroking company. One of Bale’s lawyers, John Henry Browne, said after court Wednesday that his client will speak to the jury at the end of the case, and he will offer an apology for his crimes. On Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday morning, nine Afghan villagers who traveled about 7,000 miles to testify at the hearing in traditional garb spoke of their lives since the attacks. Haji Mohammad Wazir lost 11 family members, including his mother, wife and six of his seven children. He told the six-member jury that the attacks destroyed what had been a happy life. He was in another village with his youngest son, now 5-yearold Habib Shah, during the attack.

County Attorney says she needs pay raise for prosecutor By RogeR Amsden FOR THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — Belknap County Attorney Melissa Guldbrandsen told Belknap County Commissioners Wednesday morning that her office is seeing an increase in heroin use in the county, as well as increasing problems with “spice”, a synthetic compound which mimics the affects of marijuana. ‘’Drug abuse is a big issue for law enforcement,’’ said Guldbrandsen, who said that officials had hoped that the recent conviction of a major oxycodone dealer in Belknap County Superior Court would cause a drop in drug abuse. She said that spice, which is widely available in convenience stores, poses a problem as the change of one molecule can shift it from ta banned to a legal substance. She said the county drug court program is working well and that there have been seven participants, several of whom are making progress in turning their lives around. ‘’It’s a resource intense program,’’ she said, pointing out that it involves the court, law enforcement and social service agencies. Guldbrandsen said that her 2013 budget for medical services, including autopsies, is already over expended but that funds were available in other line items to cover the costs. She also said that she would be asking for a pay increase for one of her department’s prosecutors in the 2014 budget. Asked by Commissioner Steven Nedeau (R-Meredith) if it was ‘’gift’’ given that most county employees aren’t receiving pay raises, she said that she needed to be able to offer competitive salaries in order to keep experienced employees with the her department. ‘’Experienced litigators can go to private firms and make over $100,000. It’s important that we keep them whenever possible. The cost of having to train a new person far outweighs the cost of increasing an existing employee’s salary,’’ she said. from preceding page gram was created and why they discovered it only after the program was well under way. Officials said that when they realized they had an American communication, the communication was destroyed. But it was not clear how they determined to whom an email belonged and whether any NSA analyst had actually read the content of the email. The officials said the bulk of the information was never accessed or analyzed. As soon as the extent of the problem became clear, the officials said, the Obama administration provided classified briefings to both Senate and House intelligence committees within days. At the same time, officials also informed the FISA court, which later issued the three 2011 rulings released Wednesday — with redactions — as part of the government’s latest disclosure of documents. The officials briefed reporters on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to describe the program publicly. The documents were declassified to help the Obama administration explain some of the most recent disclosures made by The Washington Post after it published classified documents provided by former NSA systems analyst Edward Snowden. One of the intelligence officials briefing reporters said the newly declassified documents should help explain “the reasons why people shouldn’t go into a panic over articles they read in the press.” But the FISA court’s classified rulings have also been at issue in a two-year-old lawsuit filed against the government by the Electronic Frontier Foundation, an Internet civil liberties activist organization. In a decision in June, the FISA court ruled that its authority did not prevent the release of the earlier

Scott Brown won’t run for governor of Mass. German woman who lost
BOSTON (AP) — Former Massachusetts Sen. Scott Brown said Wednesday night he won’t be a candidate for Massachusetts governor next year. The former Republican senator and state lawmaker spoke on WBZ-AM’s “NightSide With Dan Rea” radio program. “I have decided, with my wife’s blessing, that I will not be running for governor of Massachusetts in 2014,” Brown said. He said he wants to fulfill his commitments to the law firm where he works, and to Fox News, where he
is a paid commentator. He said he’ll continue speaking around the country about the need for bipartisanship. Brown had been mentioned as a possible GOP contender to succeed Democratic Gov. Deval Patrick, who isn’t seeking a third term. “It doesn’t mean I am not going to be participating in the political process,” Brown said. Brown said he’ll continue traveling to urge bipartisan cooperation, and tolerance of varying views within the GOP. “We all have to have room under this tent,” he said. lo w m o r tg ag e r at e s w h i l e t h e y l a s t

arm to shark dies in Hawaii
HONOLULU (AP) — A German woman who lost her arm in a shark attack died Wednesday, one week after she was bitten while snorkeling off Maui. Jana Lutteropp, 20, who had been on life support, died at Maui Memorial Medical Center, hospital spokeswoman Carol Clark said. “Jana fought hard to stay alive,” said a statement from her mother and sister, which was released by Clark. “However, we are sad to say that she lost her fight today.” Clark said the family was requesting privacy. Lutteropp was snorkeling up to 100 yards off Palauea Beach at the resort community of Makena when the shark bit off her right arm. A high school teacher visiting from California jumped into the water after hearing her screaming and seeing blood in the surf. Rick Moore, 57, of Laguna Niguel, Calif., said Lutteropp went in and out of consciousness and kept repeating that she was going to die. It’s not known what type of shark bit Lutteropp. State officials investigating the attack said witnesses didn’t see the animal. “Jana was a very beautiful, strong, young woman who was always laughing, and we will forever remember her that way,” said the statement from her mother, Jutta Lutteropp and sister, Julia Broeske. They asked that donations in her memory be made to the Maui Memorial Medical Center Foundation. “We appreciate all the support from the Maui community, as well as the prayers and thoughts from around the world and in Germany,” they said. “We especially want to thank the wonderful caregivers and everyone at Maui Memorial Medical Center.” After the attack, Moore’s friend Nicholas Grisaffi stood in neck-high water and took Lutteropp from Moore, carrying her limp body out of the water. They said Wednesday they’ve been praying for her. “I was really hoping it would be a miracle and she would pull through,” Moore said.
Red Sox drub Giants, 12-1
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Stephen Drew and Will Middlebrooks each hit a home run, Jonny Gomes and Jarrod Saltalamacchia drove in two runs apiece and the Boston Red Sox beat the San Francisco Giants 12-1 on Wednesday. Felix Doubront (9-6) rebounded from a tough outing to pitch eight strong innings for the Red Sox, who have won three of five and entered play in a virtual first-place tie with Tampa Bay in the AL East. Doubront gave up one run on five hits. He walked one and struck out three. Joaquin Arias homered among his two hits for the Giants, who have lost three of four. Barry Zito (4-9) lasted 3 2-3 innings in his first start since July 30. He allowed six runs on seven hits, walked two and struck out three.

Garden club hosting Husband & wife team workshop on silk flowers up for season finale service of Union Church on Meredith Neck
The inspirational message and music of Pastor Jennifer Worden Flagg and her husband, Bill Flagg, will conclude the 2013 summer season of the Union Church of Meredith Neck on August 25 at the 10 a.m. service. Pastor Flagg, who is also a current trustee, has a rich history with the church going back to the 1950’s. Her grandfather was one of several who helped rebuild the present day structure, her father was a long time trustee, and her mother engaged the ministers for many summers. Bill Flagg, a songwriter, singer, and Rock-A-Billy Hall of Fame member, enjoys playing guitar, singing gospel and bluegrass music, and incorporates his music with his wife’s message during the service. Both are long time favorites at the church and an uplifting culmination of the summer. (Courtesy photo)

August is the perfect time to eat local foods LACONIA — Each year the month of August is designated as Eat Local Month, which encourages members of the community to celebrate New Hampshire farmers and food producers. The month was chosen because harvest is reaching its peak, and there are fresh tasting healthy foods available all around the area.

A great place to start is Local Eatery in Laconia. Chef Kevin Halligan, owner of the Laconia Village Bakery, invites the community to the Lakes Region’s new dinner venue, the Local Eatery, situated in the historic Laconia train station on Veterans Square. Halligan goal was to provide top quality meals made from local, organic produce and grass-fed, naturally raised meats and poultry. He began offering a daily “local” special lunch at the bakery, which proved to be the most popular menu item. The Local Eatery features a year-round menu using as much local food as Halligan can find. Halligan is also happy to exploit Gilford – Bean’s and Greens as one of his top partnering local farms. Farmers love to talk about what they do and what they grow and they truly appreciate folks who enjoy their products. In these times when massively subsidized industrial farms use chemicals, hormones and pesticides and raise animals in inhumane factories, it is comforting to know the farmer who grows your food and to know that it is safely and humanely raised. Beans and Greens is a nearby source providing fresh, healthy and local food and fun. Reservations are recommended for the Local Eatery, but not required. Check out the Local Eatery’s Facebook page for local specials, local events, and a local menu.

Get Fuzzy
By Holiday Mathis
osity isn’t always about money and big gestures. Sometimes generosity is a simple stick of gum. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Don’t let the organizational details hang you up. Sometimes the best move is the one that is just good enough to move you forward. The main thing is to keep moving forward. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Most parenting strategies are based on the idea that the right kind of reminders can help someone become a better person. You’ll parent yourself today with a few clever reminders, and improvement will be immediate. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You don’t need one special person in your life to be successful. Often, it’s a core group of people that supports you best. You’ll be adding to that core group and minimizing the need to find, or rely on, just one person. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Aug. 22). You’ll see fantastic sights this year thanks to a combination of excellent planning and spontaneous risk-taking. Next month sees you answering a challenge and becoming a hero of your own story. A loved one’s plan will involve you and give you new purpose in October. November brings family expansion. Capricorn and Libra people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 25, 44, 18 and 45.
by Chad Carpenter
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You suddenly will become more focused on what needs to happen in order to reach a particularly challenging goal. It might be necessary to wake up earlier. The late afternoon is ideal for planning tomorrow’s efforts. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You can’t make better choices if you don’t have better awareness. Since everything stems from your awareness, it makes sense to expose yourself to more and be extremely observant. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Today’s free offers will wind up costing you. Maybe it still will be worthwhile, though, so don’t let this deter you from accepting the gift. Just stay alert to all that transpires. CANCER (June 22-July 22). It’s only natural to give your attention to the people making all the noise, but they aren’t necessarily the people who need it most. Check in with those who are being a bit too quiet. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Sometimes you carry a smile in your back pocket, ready to use at the right moment. But today you’re better off just wearing it constantly. It will remind you that you’re basically happy and have much to give. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your rule is to under-promise and over-deliver. Someone will ask you for a commitment, though, making the first part of the equation a bit tricky. Word things carefully and thoughtfully, and you’ll do just fine. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Stay on top of your intentions for the day by writing them down. Without a to-do list, you may get lost in the shuffle. Also, there will be some unexpected downtime, but if you’re very organized, you’ll use it productively. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Previews give you an idea of what you’re in for if you make a choice. But some decisions don’t come with a custom-edited trailer of the highlights. Today you’ll have to pay the admission to see the show. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You enjoy being generous, but you sometimes worry that people will lean too hard on you if you give too much. Remember that gener-

––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Thursday, Aug. 22, the 234th day of 2013. There are 131 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On August 22, 1485, England’s King Richard III was killed in the Battle of Bosworth Field, effectively ending the War of the Roses. On this date: In 1787, inventor John Fitch demonstrated his steamboat on the Delaware River to delegates from the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia. In 1846, Gen. Stephen W. Kearny proclaimed all of New Mexico a territory of the United States. In 1851, the schooner America outraced more than a dozen British vessels off the English coast to win a trophy that came to be known as the America’s Cup. In 1862, President Abraham Lincoln responded to Horace Greeley’s call for more drastic steps to abolish slavery; Lincoln replied that his priority was saving the Union, but he also repeated his personal wish “that all men everywhere could be free.” In 1910, Japan annexed Korea, which remained under Japanese control until the end of World War II. In 1922, Irish revolutionary Michael Collins was shot to death, apparently by Irish Republican Army members opposed to the Anglo-Irish Treaty that Collins had co-signed. In 1932, the British Broadcasting Corp. conducted its first experimental television broadcast, using a 30-line mechanical system. In 1956, President Dwight D. Eisenhower and Vice President Richard Nixon were nominated for second terms in office by the Republican National Convention in San Francisco. In 1962, French President Charles de Gaulle survived an attempt on his life in suburban Paris. In 1968, Pope Paul VI arrived in Bogota, Colombia, for the start of the first papal visit to South America. In 1972, a hostage drama began at a Chase Manhattan Bank branch in Brooklyn, N.Y., as John Wojtowicz (WAHT’-uh-witz) and Salvatore Naturile seized seven employees during a botched robbery; the siege, which ended with Wojtowicz’s arrest and Naturile’s killing by the FBI, inspired the 1975 movie “Dog Day Afternoon.” In 1989, Black Panthers co-founder Huey P. Newton was shot to death in Oakland, Calif. Gunman Tyrone Robinson was later sentenced to 32 years to life in prison. Ten years ago: Alabama’s chief justice, Roy Moore, was suspended for his refusal to obey a federal court order to remove his Ten Commandments monument from the rotunda of his courthouse. Five years ago: Usain Bolt helped Jamaica win the 400-meter relay final in 37.10 seconds for his third gold medal and third world record of the Beijing Olympics. Bryan Clay won the decathlon. Phil Dalhausser and Todd Rogers beat Brazil in the men’s beach volleyball championship game. One year ago: Ousted Penn State president Graham Spanier and his lawyers attacked a university-backed report on the Jerry Sandusky sex abuse scandal, calling it a “blundering and indefensible indictment.” (Spanier was subsequently charged with covering up a complaint about Sandusky; he denies the allegation.)

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Thursday, August 22, 2013— Page 23
ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Annie: I am the manager of a small business with one co-worker. For the past eight years, “Sheila” and I have gotten along fairly well. Last year, not so much. Sheila has become lazy, obnoxious and surly. She seems to have a chip on her shoulder, and her teenage kids are a nightmare (drugs, shoplifting, alcohol, sexual activities, theft, you name it). She brings all of this baggage to work and talks about it. I just try to get through the day without too much drama. When it was time for Sheila’s end-of-year evaluation, I could not bring myself to give her a better grade than the previous year. Not only had the evaluation criteria become stricter, but Sheila had changed. When she saw her score, she became angry and upset. I asked whether she had any ideas for her development and improvement for the coming year, and she said to increase her alcohol consumption. I am close to retirement. Should I put the hard feelings behind me or find someone to replace her? Sheila is a single mom, and I know she needs the job. I am torn. I have referred her and her family to our EAP counseling several times, but it falls on deaf ears. -- Need Less Drama Dear Drama: We feel sorry for Sheila. She has her hands full at home and is probably stressed beyond measure. When she comes to work, she feels secure enough to vent, and it relieves the pressure and is therapeutic for her. Unfortunately, it’s not therapeutic for you. Please be compassionate, as well as honest. Tell Sheila that you understand she is under a great deal of pressure, but when she takes out her frustrations at work, it makes it difficult to be around her. Say that talking about her troubles will help, but she should utilize the EAP services so that her problems won’t spill over onto her job. Dear Annie: My heart breaks for all of these grandparents who write to you saying they have no contact with their
grandchildren. I had the same issue. After two years of sleepless nights, daily crying and grieving, I realized my life was passing me by. The three of my five children who decided we are not good enough to participate in their lives never grieved the loss at all. In fact, they are thriving and happy, and now there are four grandchildren we do not know. My oldest and youngest daughters sat back patiently wondering whether I would stop mourning long enough to remember that they never left me, and that their kids are excited and happy to be part of our lives. They call me often, and we visit frequently. While I am deeply saddened that I no longer know my other children, we should not forget those who do appreciate and respect us. My advice to all who are suffering is to take charge of your life. Give yourself permission to be happy, strong and creative. Parenting has no recipe. Other factors helped shape each of my children. I have no idea why some act like we don’t deserve to live. But I do know that I am stronger, more humble, more forgiving and closer to those who want to share my life. I am grateful beyond measure. -- Finally at Peace Dear Finally: Thank you for your sage advice. We cannot always change the things that bring us grief, but we can change how we respond. We hope your words bring comfort and encouragement to others. Dear Annie: I want to respond to “Frustrated in Louisville,” whose husband interrupts her constantly. My husband does the same thing and also believes he is doing nothing wrong. I don’t think he is intentionally being mean. I believe it’s related to his other symptoms of dementia. Perhaps that lady’s husband is also experiencing early signs of dementia. -- Anonymous
