Alton going after alleged ‘junkyard’
ALTON — The town has petitioned the Belknap County Superior Court for a permanent injunction to stop a local man form operating what the town calls a junkyard on Church Street. In the filing, Town Code Enforcement Officer John Dever III, said that Mark J. Hanson of 28 Church St. started using the property “for (an) automotive and truck junk yard, motor vehicle repair yard and motor vehicle/parts storage or dealer facility” shortly after he see ALTON page 5

After work sessions, 2014 county budget stands at +2.4% By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — In three days of workshops, the Belknap County Commission undertook what chairman John Thomas of Belmont called “the first cut” of the 2014 county budget, trimming the various department’s requested appropriations by nearly $2.5-million. County departments requested appropriations totaling $29,442,231, which the commissioners reduced to $27,013,237. The commissioners reduced proposed expendi-
tures on capital projects by $2.1-million, from $2,260,000 to $160,000, $60,000 to replace windows at the Belknap County Superior Court and $100,000 for a surveillance system at the county complex. County Administrator Debra Shackett said that the remainder of the cuts fell on discretionary items like travel, training, office supplies and the like, across all departments. “The commissioners went through line by line and back and forth,” she said. The budget includes a 1.6-percent costof-living adjustment and three-percent
“step” increase for eligible employees. The commissioners also funded bonuses for unused sick days and length of service as well as the increase in the employer share of health insurance premiums, all of which are contractual obligations prescribed by the collective bargaining agreement negotiated with the union representing county employees. The Belknap County Convention struck funding for both bonuses and increased health insurance premiums from the 2013 budget, but the commission paid see COUNTY page 8

Man who wants vanity ‘COPSLIE’ license plate argues before Supreme Court
CONCORD (AP) — A New Hampshire man told the state’s highest court Thursday that denying him a vanity license plate that reads “COPSLIE” violates his political free speech rights. David Montenegro, who last year legally changed his name to “human,” said he wanted the plate because he feels it highlights government corruption. Lawyers for the New Hampshire Civil Liberties Union, who joined the case, say the current DMV regulation is unconstitutionally vague and gives too much discretion in a person behind a counter. The policy prohibits vanity plates that “a reasonable person would find offensive to good taste.” “So if a person at DMV agrees with the sentiment, he gets the plate?” Chief Justice Linda Dalianis asked during a spirited halfhour of arguments. “What is good taste?” Justice Carol Ann Conboy asked. “That seems to be the nub of see LICENSE page 14

Obama says he’s sorry some Americans losing health policies WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama says he’s sorry Americans are losing health insurance plans he repeatedly said they could keep under his signature health care law. But the president on Thursday stopped short of apologizing for making those promises in the first place. “I am sorry that they are finding themselves in this situation based on assurances they got from me,” he said in an interview with NBC News. Signaling possible tweaks to the law, Obama said his administration was work-
ing to close “some of the holes and gaps” that were causing millions of Americans to get cancellation letters. “We’ve got to work hard to make sure that they know we hear them, and we are going to do everything we can to deal with folks who find themselves in a tough position as a consequence of this,” he said. The president’s apology comes as the White House tries to combat a cascade of troubles surrounding the rollout of the health care law often referred to as “Obamacare.” The healthcare.gov website that was supposed to be an easy portal
for Americans to purchase insurance has been riddled by technical issues. And with at least 3.5 million Americans receiving cancellation notices from their insurance companies, there’s new scrutiny aimed at the way the president tried to sell the law to the public in the first place. In Thursday’s interview, Obama took broader responsibility for the health care woes than in his previous comments about the rollout, declaring that if the law isn’t working “it’s my job to get it fixed.” “When you’ve got a health care rollout see OBAMA page 14
Twitter stock dazzles in first day on New York Stock Exchange NEW YORK (AP) — Shares of Twitter went on sale to the public for the first time Thursday, instantly leaping more than 70 percent above their offering price in a dazzling debut that exceeded even Wall Street’s lofty hopes. By the closing bell, the social network that reinvented global communication in 140-character bursts was valued at $31 billion — nearly as much as Yahoo Inc., an
Internet icon from another era, and just below Kraft Foods, the grocery conglomerate founded more than a century ago. The stock’s sizzling performance seemed to affirm the bright prospects for Internet companies, especially those focused on mobile users. And it could invite more entrepreneurs to consider IPOs, which lost their luster after Facebook’s first appearance on the Nasdaq was marred by glitches.
In Silicon Valley, the IPO produced another crop of millionaires and billionaires, some of whom are sure to fund a new generation of startups. Twitter, which has never turned a profit in the seven years since it was founded, worked hard to temper expectations ahead of the IPO, but all that was swiftly forgotten when the market opened. see TWITTER page 5

CONCORD — A bipartisan group of lawmakers have again introduced legislation to repeal the provision of the 2012-2013 state budget requiring the sale of the former Laconia State School property on North Main Street. Last year a bill to same effect was adopted by the Senate but rejected by the House of Representatives. The bill is sponsored by Representatives John Graham (R-Bedford), Gene Chandler (R-Bartlett) and Candace Bouchard (D-Concord) and Senators Jim Rausch (R-Derry) and Lou D’Allesandro (D-Manchester). Both Chandler and Rausch believe the state should retain ownership of the property. In 2011, the Legislature directed the New Hampshire Department of Administrative Services (DAS) to offer the entire site to the city for “not less than $10 million” and if the city failed to accept the offer, to offer it to Belknap County “at fair market value.” If neither the city nor the county purchased the property, it would be put on the open market for no less than its fair market value. The law specified that the property was to be sold by May 1, 2013. City Councilor Matt Lahey (Ward 2), then mayor, chaired a commission convened by the Legislature to consider the future of the property and has led the city’s effort to acquire some or all of the tract. He said that with the passage of the deadline of May 1, the state remains open to offers for the property, which Linda Hodgdon, Commissioner of Administrative Services, may present to the governor and Executive Council at her discretion. With the repeal of the current law, the property would become subject to the statute governing the disposal of state-owned real estate (RSA 4:40), which stipulates that the department with jurisdiction over the property — in this case the Department of Corrections — must recommend its sale
or lease to the Long-Range Capital Planning and Utilization Committee. Composed of legislators together with a representative of the governor, the committee, with the advice of the Council on Resources and Development, consisting of officials of various state agencies, must approve the recommendation and submit it to the governor and executive council. If the governor and executive council also approve the sale or lease of the property, it must first be offered to the municipality or county where it is located and can only be placed on the open market if both refuse the offer. The sale price may not be less than the current market value of the property as determined by the governor and executive council. In June, 2011 the state appraised the property for $2.16-million. The next year the City Council offered to purchase it for that amount, but the offer was not considered. The property consists of four tax parcels. The largest, some 200-acres, is bounded by North Main Street to the east, Meredith Center Road and Eastman Road to the north and Ahern State Park to the west and south and divided roughly in half by Right Way Path. This parcel includes some 60 acres adjacent to the Robbie Mills Sports Complex bounded by Eastman Road and Green Street known as Risley Field, which the city leases on a short-term basis to provide parking for the sports complex. It excludes some 17 acres housing the 911 call center and the building vacated by Lakes Region Community Services that would remain the property of the state. The parcel was appraised at $1,760,000, There are also two smaller parcels. An undeveloped 10.4-acre lot at the junction of Old North Main Street and North Main Street was appraised at $300,000. An unimproved wooded lot of 7.5-acres at the corner of Lane Road and Meredith Center Road was appraised at $100,000. The state also leased both smaller parcels to the city in 2000 for 99 years at $1 a year.

ALTON from page one purchased it on December 22, 2005. Dever said this week that operating commercially is “primarily a zoning issue,” and operating a junkyard is against town regulations and violates the state laws regarding junkyards. The town issued Hanson a notice of violation on May 6, 2013 ordering him to immediately stop using the property for commercial use or as a junkyard. Dever said Tuesday that Hanson was told he had 30 days to appeal the violation notice with the Zoning Board of Adjustment but never filed for a hearing. When Dever was asked why the town waited eight years to cite Hanson when the paperwork said he began the alleged illegal activity in 2005, he said the activity on the property had escalated within the past few years. He also said an investigation revealed some items listed for sale on Craig’s List (an Internet exchange and sales site) and Hanson had been seen hauling scrap from the site. Dever also said that while Hanson hasn’t officially responded, the Church Street property is neater now than is has been in the recent past. The town, said Dever, considers any commercial use of the property a zoning violation because it is in a residential-zoned area. He said under the former zoning ordinances, the property was zoned as residential-commercial but noted that any commercial use needed a special exception and Hanson never applied for one. He said he also would have needed a site plan approved by the Planning Board and that never happened either. The town, wrote Dever, is entitled to assess a civil penalty of $550 per day for each violation after issuing the second notice, which was issued on June 25, 2013. Efforts by The Daily Sun to reach Hanson by telephone were unsuccessful. — Gail Ober

TWITTER from page 2 Still, most analysts don’t expect the company to be profitable until 2015. Investors will be watching closely to see whether Twitter was worth the premium price. Thursday’s stock surge was “really not as important as you might think,” said Kevin Landis, a portfolio manager with Firsthand Funds, which owns shares in Twitter. “What really matters is where the stock is going to be in six months, 12 months.” The most anticipated initial public offering of the year was carefully orchestrated to avoid the dys-
function that surrounded Facebook’s IPO. Trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “TWTR,” shares opened at $45.10, 73 percent above their initial offering price. In the first few hours, the stock jumped as high as $50.09. Most of those gains held throughout the day, with Twitter closing at $44.90, despite a broader market decline. The narrow price range indicated that people felt it was “pretty fairly priced,” said JJ Kinahan, chief strategist at TD Ameritrade.

The Obamacare Fable Factory Now that true horror stories of Obamacare’s wrecking ball are finally reaching the public, the White House doesn’t like “anecdotes.” Live by tale-telling; die by tale-telling. On Tuesday, White House press secretary Jay Carney huffed that stage-four gallbladder cancer survivor Edie Littlefield Sundby’s personal account in The Wall Street Journal of seeing her health insurance plan canceled and her access to doctors cut off was “sensational.” Not a shred of compassion for her predicament. No sorrow for her loss. Must. Attack. Messenger. There are millions out there like Sundby who are using Facebook, Twitter, Twitchy.com and a new website called MyCancellation.com to share their plights. White House flacks and hacks are working overtime to “debunk” their experiences, bash insurance companies and deride individual market consumers losing their plans as stupid dupes whose stories don’t add up. Here’s the thing. This Alinskysteeped administration has relied on an endless stream of sensationalized, phony personal dramas to sell Obamacare. Last month, Organizing for Action (previously Obama for America) promoted the “success story” of Chad Henderson, a supposedly random young person who miraculously enrolled in Obamacare while everyone else in America experienced major tech meltdowns and sticker shock. Turned out Lying Chad was actually an OFA volunteer who hadn’t really enrolled in Obamacare yet because he was “joking.” No matter. Yesterday, Obama appeared before OFA to solicit even more stories from the group to help propagandize Obamacare. A refresher course on the White House Fable Factory’s greatest hits: — Stanley Ann Dunham. Obama cited his mom’s deathbed fight with her insurer several times over the years to support the Obamacare ban on pre-existing condition exclusions by insurers. During a 2008 debate, he shared her plight: “For my mother to die of cancer at the age of 53 and have to spend the last months of her life in the hospital room arguing with insurance companies because they’re saying that this may be a pre-existing condition and they don’t have to pay her treatment, there’s something fundamentally wrong about that.” But New York Times reporter Janny Scott discovered that Dunham’s health insurer had in fact reimbursed her medical expenses with nary an objection. The actual coverage dispute centered on a separate disability insurance policy. — Otto Raddatz. In 2009, Obama publicized the plight of this Illinois
cancer patient, who supposedly died after he was dropped from his Fortis/Assurant Health insurance plan when his insurer discovered an unreported gallstone the patient hadn’t known about. The truth? He got the treatment he needed in 2005 and lived for nearly four more years. — Robin Beaton. Also in 2009, Obama claimed Beaton, a breast cancer patient, lost her insurance after “she forgot to declare a case of acne.” In fact, she failed to disclose a previous heart condition and did not list her weight accurately, but had her insurance restored anyway after intense public lobbying. — John Brodniak. A 23-yearold unemployed Oregon sawmill worker, Brodniak’s health woes were spotlighted by New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof as a textbook argument for Obamacare. Brodniak reportedly was diagnosed with cavernous hemangioma, a neurological condition, and was allegedly turned away by emergency room doctors. Kristof called the case “monstrous” and decried opponents of the Democrats’ health care proposals as heartless murderers. The truth? Brodniak not only had coverage through Oregon’s Medicaid program, but was also a neurology patient at the prestigious Oregon Health and Science University in Portland (a safety-net institution that accepts all Medicaid patients). Kristof never retracted the legend. — Marcelas Owens. An 11-yearold boy from Seattle, Owens took a coveted spot next to the president in March 2010 when Obamacare was signed into law. Marcelas’ 27-yearold mother, Tiffany Owens, died of pulmonary hypertension. The family said the single mother of three lost her job as a fast-food manager and lost her insurance. She died in 2007 after receiving emergency care and treatment throughout her illness. Progressive groups (for whom Marcelas’ relatives worked) dubbed Marcelas an “insurance abuse survivor.” But there wasn’t a shred of evidence that any insurer had “abused” the boy or his mom. Further, Washington State already offered a plethora of existing government assistance programs to laid-off and unemployed workers like Marcelas’ mom. The family and its public relations agents never explained why she didn’t enroll. — Natoma Canfield. The White House made the Ohio cancer patient a poster child for Obamacare in 2010 after she wrote a letter complaining about skyrocketing premiums and the prospect of losing her home. After Obama gave Canfield a shout-out at a health care rally in Strongsville, Ohio, and promised to control costs, officials at the renowned Cleveland Clinic, which is treating her, made see next page
LETTERS I’m forced to give up my insurance but I can help pay for others To The Daily Sun, When does the second revolution begin? During the past few years, I have witnessed a dramatic and frightening shift in the “American Dream”. Not that long ago as young people were growing up, most had visions of reaping the rewards of the seeds they sowed. Whether those visions were of starting a business, entering a professional career or entering into a trade. The generations before them who archived their goals were rewarded for their accomplishments and were respected. Now we have an atmosphere created by the current president that not only scorns the people who have achieved their goals but demonizes and penalizes them. It’s ironic that without these “fortunate” people, the president would not be able to carry out his lofty socialist goals. At what point do we as Americans say enough is enough? A mis-named bill called the “Affordable Health Care Act”. A bill passed solely by one political party to buy votes. A bill not read before passing it. A bill touted by the president stating that it was not a tax, although the Supreme Court ruled that it was a tax. A bill that the president stated over and over that “if you like your health insurance plan you can keep it.” A bill that the president stated over and over that would lower your health insurance costs and give you better coverage. Not one of those claims made by the president has
turned out to be true. In other words he has LIED to the American people. This president also modified the law without congressional approval and has granted waivers to his supporters. The mainstream news media still refuses to call out the president on the lies. Instead they say that the president could have better presented the bill, or that the insurance plans getting cancelled were deficient. I happen to have one of those “deficient” plans. I was well aware of the limitations of the plan, but at $700 per month it was affordable. (My replacement plan for my wife and I is $1587) I have carried health insurance for over 30 years. Now I am not only being forced to give up my insurance, but I am being force to help others pay for their health insurance. Contrary to what I have heard some people state, health insurance is not a right. Taking my hard earn money and my health insurance to redistribute it to others is not a right. It’s called STEALING. (For the record, I do make “voluntary” contributions to various health organizations.) What ever happened to a government of the people by the people and for the people? We have elected representatives that pass laws on to us that they either exempt themselves from or get subsidies from us to pay for their participation. If this isn’t taxation without representation, I don’t know what is. Dennis Robitaille Laconia
2.5% raises for town employees should be put on separate line To The Daily Sun, I understand that the Sanbornton selectmen have approved a recommended 2.5 percent COLA increase for town employees in 2014. How inappropriate when the elderly of Sanbornton will only get a 1.5 percent Social Security increase this year and those in the private sector may get nothing. I would like to recommend that
the 2.5 percent COLA amount for be placed on a separate budget line, if possible, so it is apparent to taxpayers when they attend the Town Meeting. As I recall, right now the COLA is buried in the salary lines of each department and some taxpayers may not be aware of this item. Bill Whalen Sanbornton

LETTERS On a number of levels, mule was perfect choice for a symbol
Yankee fans brag about titles won long before they were born
To The Daily Sun, I woke up in a cold sweat the other night, the result of a frightening nightmare. An elitist professor (whom I shall call Dr. Edsel) had been elected as head of the EPA by President Hillary Clinton. Our economy, having been decimated by eight years under “Obamacare”, had put citizens in desperate, financial straits. Meanwhile, China, Brazil and India had become economic powers. Strangely, a ghostly visage of the Lakes Region Community College campus repeatedly rose from my terrified unconscious state. While a haunting voice kept repeating a familiar refrain, “man made global warming is settled science”. Hillary was the keynote speaker at the 2017 climate conference in Cairo, Egypt. With Barack Obama having stolen her magnificent health care brain storm, her signature accomplishment was to be a combined magical environmental life saver and Muslim outreach world peace maker. She promised the world that the United States would do it’s utmost to counter the increased CO2 pollutants by the emerging industrialized countries. This despite the fact that the earth had entered a cooling period for the past couple of decades, while CO2 emissions continued to rise. Madame President’s response when queried about this fact replied, “at this point, what difference does it make”. The NY Times was reporting that this plant killing, global cooling period was a direct result of anthropogenic global warming. Al Gore was awarded the position of Transportation Czar by Hillary and he had a grand scheme with which to secure his second Nobel Peace Prize while accommodating the EPA. Dr. Edsel and the EPA had mandated that this country decrease CO2 automobile emissions by 100% by the end of Hillary’s first term. A mind numbing and “inconvenient” conundrum even for the magnificent intellect of Mr. Gore. With the expensive Nissan Leaf, Toyota Prius, Chevy Volt and Smart Cars financially out of reach of most consumers and now environmentally verboten by the Clinton regime, Al Gore went to work. After inventing the Internet and saving the polar bears, this would have to be really something. He had an epiphany and from his fertile mind emerged the fuel efficient, low maintenance, “Smart-Ass car”.

To The Daily Sun, I am a Red Sox supporter. My son is a Red Sox fan. The difference is a fan (fanatic) knows a lot about the team and the supporter just supports his home team without all the statistics. I was a “fan” when I was a young boy. It is sad to see many grown men “adults” put so much importance on sports and less importance on family. Why is Thanksgiving more important to many for the football game than the reason for Thanksgiving? Back to The Red Sox. I celebrate the World Series Championship for the young New England boys who dream of becoming a major league baseball player and support their Red Sox. The Red Sox is the team on the TV, radio and news here in New England. I watched The Red Sox with my dad since I was 11 ((1973) and he passed away in 2000 at 86 years old never having to celebrate with me. But my son was born just a few months after he passed away and I had a 4-year-old Red Sox fan to watch “The Curse” be broken and we recorded us watching the Red Sox beating the Yankees and The Cardinals in 2004, the year they broke the curse under a full lunar eclipse! Beating The “mighty” Yankees was more exciting than the World Series victory of 2004 as they were the only team to ever come back from first three losses to win four straight and against the “mighty” Yankees made it all the more sweeter! I had met many Red Sox haters and many are New England natives and most were former “Red Sox fans” who admitted “I was a Red Sox fan but I got sick of the losing so I became a Yankee fan”. I always felt it was “poor sportsman-

engine or an intact front grill. It would be pulled by a mule. During the winter months, heat would be provided by the mere cost of a can of “burro beans”. Whenever the temperature reached the freezing level, the driver would need only feed the faithful steed a can, and soon a steady stream of heat producing flatulence would flood the front of ones’ special designer vehicle. To entice sales, Al Gore even promised a sleek and lightweight “pooper scooper” with every new purchase. Inside the glove compartment would reside an airtight nose cover. It would be used to deflect any unwanted odors in the event of an assault on the driver’s olfactory glands. All the mules would be purchased from Muslim countries as part of the “Outreach for Muslim Peace Clinton Global Initiative”. The mule was the perfect choice on religious, historical, environmental and pacifist levels. The Hebrews viewed the ass as something for peaceful use, the very emblem of peace, while the horse was the symbol of war. And we now know the camel is the symbol for Geico. Dr. Edsel had cross referenced the methane gas emissions from the motoring critter and found that the effect on global warming would be minor in comparison to the aforementioned 21st century hybrid cars. Mr Gore would track these mule-borne methane emissions by virtue of his super sensitive, algorithm decoder device which would be attached to his private jet fleet. Mercifully, I awoke from this night terror after imagining that our economy went into total collapse and everyone tried to sell their mule after remembering a biblical passage. During a severe famine in Samaria, one distraught owner sold the head of his ass for 120 pieces of silver. Now, tell me if you find this odd. Every time I hear the word donkey or Democrat mentioned, I start humming the song, “Jim’s Windy Mule”. A local farmer told me that tune is an actual song. In fact, a 1935 classic by the Prairie Ramblers. Spooky huh? The following night, I had another unnerving dream. Dr. Edsel had been relieved of his duties at the EPA and was now teaching our children at Lakes Region Community College. Now that would be just plain creepy if it were true. Even Boris Karloff, Lon Chaney and Bela Lugosi would have declined a starring role in a movie that chillingly unbelievable. I called Plymouth State University looking for some help to resolve my disarming dream state intrusions. Sadly, I was informed that Professor Leo Sandy was no longer heading the psychology department. Just thinking about Hillary Clinton, Al Gore and a million or so asses running around the country has caused some insomnia. Oh good, the 1931 version of “Frankenstein” starring Boris Karloff and Colin Clive is playing on MeTV. That should help bring about some restorative slumber for one greatly fatigued curmudgeon. Oh wait, Barack Obama is playing the part of the Invisible Man, hovering above it all, creating “exceptional” havoc, while no one seems to be noticing. Now that is really weird. Russ Wiles Tilton
ship” to forsake your home team to become a fan of another team that has more championships and then try to take pride in championships that occurred long before they and their parents were even born. The Red Sox winning three times in the last decade might be an unusual stroke of luck as each team was different. The 2013, 2007 and 2004 teams had only David Ortiz as the only player on all three teams. So why do Yankee fans BRAG about being a Yankee fan or Red Sox hater of years long before they we born? It is very easy to be a fan of a team with more championships than other teams, when most championships were before they were even born, but how much more enjoying is your home town team more associated with your community or the team that is broadcast daily on your cable TV. When you live, work and school in N.E. you should be wishing your neighbors, students and coworkers happiness. Too many Red Sox haters live here in N.E. Many are born and raised as Red Sox fans and others are from N.Y. but both wish their neighbors, school children and fellow employees disappointment. Those who HATE The Red Sox will cheer for the other team as they enjoy the disappointment of their own community members. Many who live here in N.H. and N.E. would enjoy a Red Sox disappointing loss from the World Series even more than a Red Sox fan would enjoy a World Series Championship. That is a sad commentary. People enjoy other peoples misfortune than they enjoy their own fortune. Joe Laurendeau Gilmanton
We don’t hate Obama personally, we just hate people who lie To The Daily Sun, Race is not the issue. Let’s be honest here. When the President of the United States looks the American public straight in the eye and LIES to them time after time, scandal after scandal, the color of his skin,or his race is not the issue. Those of us who oppose Obama and everything he stands for don’t hate him, WE
JUST HATE LIARS. So, please spare us from the claims of hate and prejudice when writing your letters. Obama could sell a bottle of sand to an Arab. Lesson of the day: get the sand out of your shoes and your head out of your BLANK. We wont get fooled again. Tom Sellew Lochmere (Tilton)

LETTERS I’ve seen first hand how our county operates & I’m not impressed To The Daily Sun, I read the letter in the Nov. 6 Daily Sun from Rep. Bob Greenmore and his group. I have a question about the admission that our county commissioners have been remiss in their duties. As it states in his letter, state law REQUIRES that twice a year the commissioners are to inspect the correctional facilities under their jurisdiction and file a report within 30 days to the Attorney General. In the past five years this has only been done twice. This is a blatant disregard for the duties they were elected to perform. A willful violation of state law without even having the bad excuse of not being aware. This kind of cavalier attitude toward their responsibilities puts the taxpayers of Belknap County at risk for litigation. Here’s the scenario: a detainee is harmed somehow while in the custody of the Corrections Department. He gets a lawyer. The lawyer discovers that the commissioners have not done their due diligence and this is “why my client was harmed your honor”. Who holds the commissioners
accountable? Apparently no one except the voters. So is the county going to be fined for breaking the law? Is someone going to jail? What is the penalty for violation of this state law? If our current commissioners do not intend to uphold their duties then they should resign. If they don’t resign I would like to register my vote of “NO CONFIDENCE” in our current administration and ask my fellow voters to join me. I have seen first hand how our county operates and believe me I am not impressed. There are ongoing systemic problems in our nursing home and in our correctional facilities. The underlying cause of all this is simply poor leadership and bad management. One last point to be made. You can be sure that if an employee for the county had so openly violated a requirement like this they would have been fired and crucified. Do not the standards apply for all? It’s time for the three kings to be dethroned!! Gordon Blais Meredith
Republican temper tantrums will keep these fights going & going To The Daily Sun, Like many of my neighbors, I was relieved when the government shutdown ended. Yet the truth is that unless Republicans in Congress stop throwing temper tantrums to get what they want, these fights will not be going away. They aren’t cheap: this 15-day shutdown cost our government $24 billion dollars, and that doesn’t include the cost to New Hampshire’s economy. Navy Yard contractors and Portsmouth businesses took a huge hit. It is ridiculous that Senator Ayotte harps on the value of fiscal responsibility but does nothing to reign in Tea Party excesses. Her Tea Party leaders nearly destroyed America’s credit
rating while wasting billions of dollars. When she was sworn into office she promised to represent the interests of New Hampshire families, yet under her watch her own party has enacted policies that have cost New Hampshire families jobs and income. She has done nothing to stop them. She is, in fact, doing the opposite by putting forward so-called solutions that will perpetuate the Tea Party’s job killing agenda. Senator Ayotte’s priorities are backwards, New Hampshire’s families should come before her Washington buddies. Lew Henry Gilmanton Iron Works

Gilford has spent $14.6K in legal fees in cases regarding suspended police officers GILFORD — In the two months since Police Chief Kevin Keenan and Patrol Officer Holly Harris have been on paid administrative leave, the town has spent $14,683 on legal fees associated with their leave. Additionally, the town has paid Keenan $14,373 in salary since his leave began on August 29. Harris, who has been on leave since around Sept. 15, earns $24.33 per hour and has earned approximately $6,810 during her leave.
To date, other than confirming the amount of money spent on lawyers and salary, town officials have remained silent about the reasons behind the administrative leaves and or how long they expect it to continue. The Daily Sun has learned that an independent assessment of the police department has been performed however it is not known what costs, if any, are associated with it. — Gail Ober
COUNTY from page one the bills anyway by shuffling monies within departmental budgets. The total appropriations of $27-million represent an increase of $628,621, or 2.4 percent, over the current budget, but are $2.7-million, or 9.1-percent less than was budgeted in 2008 and $2.0-million, or 6.8-percvent less than was budgeted in 2009. Total
appropriations in 2010, 2011 and 2012 were supplemented by federal funds distributed through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Thomas emphasized that the commission has not completed its recommended budget. “We’ve still got work to do,” he said. “We will present a fair, economical and responsible budget.”
TRACK from page one was made necessary because the surface of the old track began bubbling and cracking in 2011. The city hired a company to fix it, but the next year the problems resurfaced and the city was forced to close the track again. As of October, he said the city was still in negotiations with the company that did the 2011 resurfacing because its representatives have said the 2012 problems “were not of (their) making.” He said the city decided this time that the entire former rubberized surface must be removed. Dunleavy said the entire cost for the replacement was $250,000 and is being paid for with a borrowing approved by the
City Council. The city had estimated the cost to be $300,000 and the bond was included in the 2013-2014 budget. Dunleavy said the city also resurfaced all of the runways for the jumps and, aside from the fence, the track is like new. “What’s nice is that it’s something the whole city can use,” said Dunleavy, noting that some tracks that belong exclusively to school districts are closed when the schools aren’t using them. He also said that being at Opechee Park, which is the city’s largest park, is good because it is in such a “nice setting.” He said once it opens the track will remain open until “snow flies.”
DISCRIMINATION from page 2 the Employment Non-Discrimination Act. It is the first major gay rights bill since Congress repealed the ban on gays serving openly in the military three years ago. “All Americans deserve a fair opportunity to pursue the American dream,” said Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, a chief sponsor of the bill. Proponents cast the effort as Congress following the lead of business and localities as some 90 percent of Fortune 500 companies and 22 states have outlawed employment discrimination against gay, bisexual and transgender Americans. Supporters described it as the final step in a long congressional fight against discrimination, coming nearly 50 years after enactment of the Civil
Rights Act and 23 years after the Americans with Disabilities Act. “Now we’ve finished the trilogy,” said Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, a chief sponsor of the disabilities law, at a Capitol Hill news conference. Two Republican senators who voted against anti-discrimination legislation in 1996, Arizona’s John McCain, the presidential nominee in 2008, and Orrin Hatch of Utah, backed the measure this time. Alaska Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski voted in favor; her father, Frank, opposed a similar bill nearly two decades ago, underscoring the generational shift. “Let the bells of freedom ring,” said Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., who took the lead on the legislation from the late Sen. Ted Kennedy, D-Mass. Senate passage came in a momentous year for gay rights advocates. The Supreme Court in June granted federal benefits to legally married same-sex couples, though it avoided a sweeping ruling that would have paved the way for same-sex unions nationwide. Illinois is on the verge of becoming the 15th state to legalize gay marriage along with the District of Columbia. A Pew Research survey in June found that more Americans said homosexuality should be accepted rather than discouraged by society by a margin of 60 percent to 31 percent. Opinions were more evenly divided 10 years ago.

Glory Days: Trio of LHS sports heroes recalls exploits from the 1940s By Roger Amsden FOR THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — Sixty five years ago, a trio of Laconia High School athletes, who between them had earned 26 varsity letters, were featured in an article written by Sam Clevenson in the Laconia Evening Citizen which recalled their past exploits and detailed their plans for the future. Those three men, now 83 years old, gathered recently to look at old newspaper clippings and reminisce in what might be called a Bruce Springsteen song ‘’Glory Days’’ moment, about the Laconia sports scene in the 1940s. The three ‘’Men of Letters’’, as described in a caption beneath their photo, were Jeep Munsey, Milo Pike and Leo ‘’Pat’’ McGrath, all of whom earned four letters in baseball. ‘’A lot of the seniors had joined the Army so we got to play varsity baseball as freshman,’’ said Pike, who in his high school career would win 20 of 29 varsity pitching starts, including all five that he made against Franklin, described in the article as a major rival, as well as games against Cathedral and Central of Manchester and Nashua, while hitting over .300 in three of his four seasons. ‘’Laconia was a great baseball town back then.’’ McGrath recalls, noting that his first experience at baseball was playing on an Industrial League team along with his father and grandfather. ‘’That’s where we learned baseball. There weren’t any Little League teams then and we learned in our backyards and in pickup games,’’ says McGrath, who played the infield for Laconia High School for four years and hit .362 one season, and, along with Pike and Munsey, played American Legion baseball during the summers after the high school season was over. He homered in one of those Legion games at Kelley Park in Bristol, pulling a ball over the right field fence off of Bill Marston, one of then best high school pitchers in New Hampshire. Marston outdu-

eled Pike that die, though Pike struck out 10 in eight innings, in a 2-1 loss. Marston struck out 12 while allowing only three hits in that victory and was only 15 at the time. McGrath, who earned three letters in football as well as two letters in basketball, recalls former Red Sox catcher Birdie Tebbetts of Nashua bringing a team of Red Sox players to the Pearl Street grounds in 1948, just after they had lost a playoff game to the Cleveland Indians. ‘’The major league pitcher pitched against the Red
Sox hitters and out pitcher pitched against our hitters. It was really something to see big league players in Laconia,’’ says McGrath. McGrath also recalls Laconia hosting the House of David baseball team, who gained fame for their beards and barnstormed the country during the 1920s until the early 1950s playing local teams. Among those playing on the House of David team against Laconia was Walter Peterson, who would in 1968 and 1970 win the New Hampshire governorship. see next page

Whig elected as election judge in Phila. PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Voters in Philadelphia have elected a Whig to public office for what the victor believes may be the first time in nearly 160 years. Robert “Heshy” Bucholz, a member of the Modern Whig party, campaigned door-to-door and won 36 votes to his Democratic
opponent’s 24 on Tuesday to become an election judge in the city’s Rhawnhurst section. Now a heavily Democratic city, Philadelphia’s last Whig mayor was elected in 1854. It’s hard to verify whether Whigs won any lower offices after that,.
from preceding page ‘’He wore a fake beard during the game and would keep lifting it up and smiling at us,’’ recalls McGrath. Munsey, who earned three letters in football and was a unanimous pick as an All-State running back, also earned three letters in basketball, as did Pike. He was the only one who went on to play sports in college, serving in the Navy before attending the University of New Hampshire, where he co-captained the football team, set punting records which still stand to this day and once gained 151 yards in 12 carries against Vermont while scoring three touchdowns. He also played basketball and baseball at UNH. McGrath also served in the Navy, declining an athletic scholarship at Saint Michael’s College after fellow LHS football player Peter ‘’Beau’’ Lessard, who was also headed to St. Michael’s, decided instead to attend Syracuse University. He would later work for Pike’s paving company. Pike, who had been in line for a baseball scholarship at Wake Forest, attended Norwich University but went into the family paving business in 1949. ‘’I had seven men, two trucks and a wheelbarrow to work with’’ Pike says of his first summer on the job. ‘’We never saw a baseball, basketball or football until we got to high school,’’ Pike recalls, saying that Munsey, who was a natural athlete, adapted the most easily to all three sports. Pike was frequently the high scorer for the high school basketball team, scoring 15 points in a come from behind 36-33 win over Spaulding High School of Rochester and 15 in a
36-35 loss to Spaulding which Laconia lost on a last minute basket. Munsey, who once had a 29 game hitting streak in baseball, recalls that the city had at least four teams playing in a city league which featured players such as John Lyman, Warren McVey, Ray Simoneau, Peanut Lamere and Norman ‘’Farmer’’ Hubbard, and an All-Star team which played teams from other cities. ‘’There used to 250 to 300 people at our games,’’ recalls Pike, who says that the immediate post World War II era was a golden age of sports for Laconia, whose football teams competed against and defeated teams from cities like Nashua and Manchester. Numbers tell a lot about the relative decline of Laconia’s competitiveness. In 1950 Laconia had a population of 14,745 (not counting Gilford), compared to 13,776 for Rochester, 15,874 for Dover, and 34,669 for Nashua. Since then the other cities have doubled their population while Laconia has added only 1,000 residents. ‘’When we played sports there was no television to speak of and people were engaged in their community in a way that’s just not possible today. It was a fun era, an exciting time to be involved in sports,’’ recalls McGrath. Pike says that until recently when Munsey had knee surgery the trio of 1948 LHS graduates frequently got together for golf and that he and McGrath were out on the Laconia Country Club course as recently as last week. ‘’We still like to talk about the good old days,’’ says Pike, who jokes that ‘’the older we get, the better we were.’’

CONCORD (AP) — The New Hampshire Insurance Department will hold a public hearing to address a Rochester hospital’s concerns about being excluded from the network of providers for those purchasing individual health insurance plans under the federal health overhaul. Frisbie Memorial Hospital President Al Felgar is fighting Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield’s decision to exclude his hospital and about 80 of the hospital’s physicians from its new provider network. He said Thursday he was prepared to sue if the insurance department denied his request for a hearing, but Deputy Insurance Commissioner Alex Feldvebel said Felgar will get a hearing. He noted, however, that New Hampshire law does not require all providers to be included in the network, and he emphasized that the state doesn’t regulate the contracting process. The public hearing will focus on explaining the state’s network adequacy standards, Feldvebel said. Felgar
also wants access to Anthem’s records about the process used to determine who participates in the network. “The state had a responsibility on the biggest health reform bill ever passed in this country to have an open process,” Felgar said. “Nobody’s taking responsibility. The feds point to the state and the state points to the feds. This is unacceptable.” Anthem is the only New Hampshire insurance company participating in the new online insurance markets required under President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul law. The new network will include 74 percent of the state’s primary care providers, 85 percent of specialists and 16 of the state’s 26 acute-care hospitals. Anthem officials have said the main driver in selecting providers was geography — more than 90 percent of the plans’ potential customers live within 20 miles of a network hospital, though under the law, that distance could’ve been twice as far and still considered adequate.
LICENSE from page 2 the argument.” Senior Assistant Attorney General Richard Head argued that state workers were right to deny the plate in 2010, because the phrase disparages an entire class of people — police officers. “I don’t deny you might get two different decisions from two different people,” Head said in response to a question about whether a plate reading “COPS R GR8” would be approved. Anthony Galdieri, an attorney representing the civil liberties union, argued that an accusation is nothing more than viewpoint. Justice Gary Hicks questioned how the court could restrict someone’s ability to have an opinion. Head replied that the license plate’s wording was an allegation, not an opinion. Gilles Bissonnette, another NHCLU
attorney, said “COPSLIE” is political speech that is being regulated and suppressed by the government. “There’s no way to objectively enforce this regulation,” Bissonnette said. After court, the plaintiff said he thought police officers who might pull him over and have to type “COPSLIE” into their computers would amount to “the perfect situational irony.” He said he was confident the court would invalidate the DMV provision, despite opening his argument by telling the justices that the only reason the case had reached their level was because of a corrupt judiciary. He also acknowledged that he had been arrested twice, but would not say what the charges were. The justices did not indicate when they would rule.
OBAMA from page 2 that is as important to the country and to me as this is and it doesn’t work like a charm, that’s my fault,” he said. Some Republicans, who remain fierce opponents of the law three years after it won congressional approval, appeared unmoved by Obama’s mea culpa. “If the president is truly sorry for breaking his promises to the American people, he’ll do more than just issue a half-hearted apology on TV,” Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said in a statement. In recent days, focus has intensified on the president’s promise that Americans who liked their insurance coverage would be able to keep it. He repeated the line often, both as the bill was being debated in Congress and after it was signed into law. But the health care law itself made that promise almost impossible to keep. It mandated that insurance coverage must meet certain standards and that policies falling short of those standards would no longer be valid unless they were grandfathered, meaning some policies were always expected to disappear. The White House says under those guidelines, fewer than 5 percent of
Americans will have to change their coverage. But in a nation of more than 300 million people, 5 percent is about 15 million people. Officials argue that those forced to change plans will end up with better coverage and that subsidies offered by the government will help offset any increased costs. “We weren’t as clear as we needed to be in terms of the changes that were taking place,” Obama told NBC. “And I want to do everything we can to make sure that people are finding themselves in a good position, a better position than they were before this law happened.” The president’s critics have accused him of misleading the public about changes that were coming under the law, which remains unpopular with many Americans. Obama dismissed those accusations, insisting the White House was operating in “good faith.” He acknowledged that the administration “didn’t do a good enough job in terms of how we crafted the law” but did not specify what changes might be made. Nor did he say whether he supported a variety of proposals on Capitol Hill to address issues that have arisen since the insurance sign-ups launched on Oct. 1.

Concord man e-mailed neighbors that he was going to shoot his 9-year-old son & then himself CONCORD AP) — A New Hampshire man who killed himself and his 9-year-old son during a supervised visit at a YWCA because he was upset over custody arrangements emailed his neighbors earlier that day and told them there was nothing anyone could do to stop him. The email Muni Savyon sent to his neighbors was included in a report issued Thursday by the state attorney general’s office. According to the report, Savyon and his son, Joshua, had been talking and playing games for about 40 minutes during the Aug. 11 visit when Savyon unzipped a black briefcase, took out a handgun and shot the boy in the back of the head. He stood and shot the boy five more times before killing himself, the report states. “There’s one important thing you should know: There was nothing that you, or anyone close to me, could have done to prevent the tragedy,” Savyon wrote to his neighbors. “Do you need to know why I did this? Never mind. The man is insane.” Though Savyon had been scanned by a hand-held metal detector for previous visits at the YWCA, he was not before the fatal shooting. Workers told investigators that they had police officers providing security when the policy requiring the scans was enacted, but staff had been “loose” on enforcing it since funding cuts reduced that security. One worker told investigators that staffers weren’t sure what they would do if they found a gun on someone.
Born in Israel, Savyon was a naturalized citizen who lived in several Western states before coming to New England, where he worked as a software engineer. Savyon and the boy’s mother, Becky Ranes, were not married, and according to court documents and Thursday’s report, he had been upset over custody arrangements and had told her he would kill either her or himself and their son if he didn’t get what he wanted. Ranes told investigators that Savyon told her in March 2012, “You can only push someone so far before they snap. I’ve snapped,” and “I live in New Hampshire and I now have a gun. It will be you or it will be me and Joshua. You will see it on the news.” In his email, Savyon criticized Ranes for believing in government authority and called her “a bad influence.” “And now she will be left alone with the terrible sadness that her only son has been taken from her, a sadness that I am very familiar with,” he wrote. Assistant Attorney General Jeffery Strelzin said the email was sent earlier in the day Aug. 11 but declined to say exactly when. The center’s director has declined to comment o the details of the shooting but emphasized that the possibility of violence exists for all the families who use the center for supervised visits, or else they wouldn’t need to be supervised. And she said having a constant police presence would work against the center’s goal of providing a homelike atmosphere.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’re a regular productivity master. If it’s been done by someone else, you’ll choose a different task. Duplicate work, ideas and opinions aren’t helpful, and that’s all the reason you need to just be yourself. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Once you do all you can do, the next step is to determine that it was enough. Do not forget that step. Give yourself the satisfaction of acknowledging that you gave it your all. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). If you’re not sure how to judge a situation, look at the people involved. What’s their mood? Do they seem happy or malcontent? If you’re not sure how to judge a person, look at his friends. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Nov. 8). You make relationships a top priority, and as a result, they thrive. This month you’ll show your strength through tenderness. You’ll be lucky with making long-term decisions. A deal that goes down in December will pay you in July. January shakes up your social scene with some new blood. There’s a move in August. Leo and Aries people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 10, 30, 1, 13 and 41. Today’s Birthdays: Actor Norman Lloyd is 99. CBS newsman Morley Safer is 82. Singeractress Bonnie Bramlett is 69. Singer Bonnie Raitt is 64. TV personality Mary Hart is 63. Former Playboy Enterprises chairman and chief executive Christie Hefner is 61. Actress Alfre Woodard is 61. Singer-songwriter Rickie Lee Jones is 59. Author Kazuo Ishiguro is 59.

Get Fuzzy
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Make healthy choices and plans in the morning when your willpower is high. Then later, when it’s time to implement those decisions, there’s no choice to be made. You did it already. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Consider the obstacles you might face so that you can proactively deal with them. The more prepared you are for the outcomes you don’t want the less likely they are to occur. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The goal is to win someone over to your side without making them think they’ve crossed some kind of line. You’ll do this with your charm, friendliness and humor. Laughter is a kind of agreement. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Like a little bird that has broken out of an egg, you have made it past a barrier but are still not ready to fly. Let people take care of you while you gather the strength you need to take the next risk. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). If you would rather be doing something else, the task at hand won’t be fun. You can make the present seem like less work by reminding yourself that it’s what’s happening now, so you may as well get into the spirit of it. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). When it feels like too much work has depleted your good mood, dreaming will invigorate you. You’ll get energy from making goals and/or imagining your new improved life. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You always try to move upward on the morality scale, and so people around you behaving badly will hold no sway over your actions. That said, peer pressure is very real to you now. So avoid potentially problematic associations. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Because you have moxie, you know what it is. The people who don’t have it don’t recognize it in you. Don’t blame them, but don’t give them an important responsibility, either. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You intended your life story to go one way, and now it seems you’re living it another. Whether the versions are close or drastically different, just know that every life story goes through

––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Friday, Nov. 8, the 312th day of 2013. There are 53 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Nov. 8, 1988, Vice President George H.W. Bush won the presidential election, defeating Massachusetts Gov. Michael Dukakis. On this date: In 1889, Montana became the 41st state. In 1909, the original Boston Opera House first opened with a performance of “La Gioconda” by Amilcare Ponchielli. In 1913, the play “Woyzeck,” by Georg Buchner, had its premiere in Munich, Germany, more than six decades after the playwright’s death. In 1923, Adolf Hitler launched his first attempt at seizing power in Germany with a failed coup in Munich that came to be known as the “BeerHall Putsch.” In 1932, New York Democratic Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt defeated incumbent Republican Herbert Hoover for the presidency. In 1942, Operation Torch, resulting in an Allied victory, began during World War II as U.S. and British forces landed in French North Africa. In 1950, during the Korean War, the first jet plane battle took place as U.S. Air Force Lt. Russell J. Brown shot down a North Korean MiG-15. In 1960, Massachusetts Sen. John F. Kennedy defeated Vice President Richard M. Nixon for the presidency. In 1972, the premium cable TV network HBO (Home Box Office) made its debut with a showing of the movie “Sometimes a Great Notion.” In 1980, scientists at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., announced that the U.S. space probe Voyager 1 had discovered a 15th moon orbiting the planet Saturn. In 1987, 11 people were killed when an Irish Republican Army bomb exploded as crowds gathered in Enniskillen, Northern Ireland, for a ceremony honoring Britain’s war dead. In 1994, midterm elections resulted in Republicans winning a majority in the Senate while at the same time gaining control of the House for the first time in 40 years. Ten years ago: A suicide car bombing of a housing complex in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, killed 17 people. Front-runner Howard Dean became the first Democratic presidential candidate ever to reject taxpayer money and avoid the accompanying spending limits, saying he had to act to compete against President Bush’s campaign. Five years ago: Indonesia executed three Islamic militants for helping to plan and carry out the 2002 Bali bombings that killed 202 people, many of them foreign tourists. An accident on a Russian nuclear submarine undergoing a test in the Sea of Japan asphyxiated 20 people on board. One year ago: Wall Street saw stocks fall sharply for a second straight day as investors worried about the potential for gridlock in Washington. The Dow Jones industrial average lost 121 points, a day after plunging 313 points. The Congressional Budget Office warned that failing to avoid the “fiscal cliff” of tax increases and spending could send the economy back into recession and push the unemployment rate up to 9.1 percent.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Annie: My older brother and I are both in our mid-30s and have not gotten along for 20 years. He has been verbally, psychologically and at times physically abusive toward me. He has a ferocious temper, and if I say anything he doesn’t like, he lambastes me. I try to avoid him, but since the birth of my nephew (the cutest baby ever), that is not always possible. I like his wife and adore my nephew. Before a visit, I have trouble sleeping at night. I feel anxious and dread the hours passing in anticipation. When I get there, I try to stay silent and enjoy the baby, not doing anything that might make him lash out. I wish there was a way to heal my relationship with my brother. He doesn’t believe he’s done anything hurtful and thinks I should just “get over it.” I wish I could. Is there something I could do? -- Little Sister in Need Dear Little Sister: Can you create a tougher skin? You need to stop taking your brother’s anger personally. His comments have nothing to do with your intelligence, your personality or your opinion on any subject. It’s about his need to be in control of every situation, and at the bottom of that need is fear. Empower yourself. Learn to smile indulgently and ignore him or say calmly, “I guess we simply disagree.” If you can create a different dynamic by refusing to be your brother’s favorite target, your entire relationship could evolve. Enlist his wife’s help to keep visits pleasant. Whenever possible, see your nephew when your brother isn’t around. And they may both love it if you offer to take the baby for an hour or so. Winwin. Dear Annie: I know you have heard this before, but please tell major retailers to stock good-looking clothes for women size 3X and larger -- not those horrid blouses with prints that
look like they came from my grandmother’s closet. I would love to buy a top that has sleeves that fit and a neckline that’s not trying to be sexy and to have choices in enough styles that I don’t have to buy four of the same item in different colors. We have money to spend on nice clothes if they were offered. Stores manage to sell affordable clothes for skinny girls, so how about the rest of us? And please don’t tell us to go to specialty stores. I would like to find clothes in my size in any store. Wake up, corporate America! Americans are getting bigger. You can make lots of money if you offer decent clothes for big women. -- I Need Nice Clothes, Too Dear Need: Actually, there are more stores carrying larger sizes than ever before. And the selections range from inexpensive to pricey. There also are multiple places online to find larger sizes. There may not yet be the same variety of styles and selections as there are for smaller sizes, but it’s much more inclusive than it used to be. The market will go where the money is. It just takes time. Dear Annie: I sympathize with “Regrets in Paradise,” the 57-year-old woman who is in an unhappy marriage to a 61-year-old man. She discovered after they married that he isn’t the same guy and simply wants her to take care of him. I am a 75-year-old widow of six years. I have observed that most men my age are interested in women 20 years younger. I think they are looking for a “nurse with a purse,” and I am better off as I am. For more than 50 years, I waited on my husband and took care of him through his last illness. He was the father of my two children, and I would have done anything for him, but I have no intention of going through that again. -- Better Off Single
