Historic Laconia Veterans Square church building will be converted into Irish pub/restaurant by Hampton couple

By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA — David and Maureen Kennedy of Hampton, who trace their roots to Tipperrary and Galway respectively, plan to convert the former Evangelical Baptist Church on Veterans Square into a restaurant and pub with a distinctive Celtic flavor.

Kennedy discussed his plans for the building with the city’s Technical Review Committee on Wednesday and is scheduled

to seek the approval of the Planning Board next month.

Planning Director Shanna Saunders said “we fast tracked this project.”

Kennedy said that he expects to close on the purchase of the building from the church next month and anticipates completing the conversion in seven months. “We’d like to catch some of the summer,” he said.

In search of larger accommodations, the Evangelical Baptist Church moved to

Lakeport after purchasing the former Our Lake of the Lakes building complex from the Roman Catholic Church.

The restaurant will be the Kennedy’s second, both housed in churches. The Holy Grail Restaurant and Pub in what what was St. Joseph’s Church on Main Street in Epping has twice been chosen as the state’s finest Irish pub by New Hampshire Magazine.

BELMONT — Until the town sees its first hard frost, Shaker Regional School District Superintendent Marie Dreyer has said that all high- and middle-school fields will be off limits after 6 p.m. and the elementary school fields in town will be off limits at 5:45 p.m.

Dreyer is reacting to the news Wednesday afternoon that a horse in Belmont has been diagnosed with West Nile Virus, making the town a high-level risk for its inhabitants.

She said school staff combed all of the school properties for any containers that could possibly hold standing water and removed or destroyed them.

She said other measures taken by the Shaker Regional School District was either a letter or e-mail sent immediately to all parents as well as the purchase of cans of Off – an insect repellent that contains DEET. Dreyer said if parents permit it, the repellant will be applied by a school nurse to younger chilsee VirUS page 16

White House & Republicans still groping for a compromise WASHINGTON (AP) — The nation’s economy on the line, President Barack Obama and congressional Republicans groped inconclusively Thursday for a compromise to avert an unprecedented U.S. default and end the 10-day-old partial government shutdown.

“We expect further conversations tonight,” House Majority Leader Eric Cantor said cryptically at nightfall, after he, Speaker John Boehner and a delegation of other Republicans met for more than an hour with Obama at the White House.

The White House issued a statement describing the session as a good one, but adding, “no specific determination was made.”

said failure to raise the $16.7 trillion debt limit by Oct. 17 “could put timely payment of all of these at risk.”

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid advanced legislation to simply raise the debt limit and stave off the threat of an unprecedented federal financial default — a measure that Republicans are likely to block unless he agrees to change it.

Across the Capitol, Boehner left open the possibility of launching a rival measure in the House on Friday.

As he described it for his rank and file in a closeddoor morning session in the Capitol, it would leave the shutdown in place while raising the nation’s see SHUTDOWN page 9

Yet it seemed the endgame was at hand in the crises that have bedeviled the divided government for weeks, rattled markets in the U.S. and overseas and locked 350,000 furloughed federal workers out of their jobs. Both sides expressed fresh hopes for a resolution soon.

The up-and-down day also featured a dour warning from Treasury Secretary Jack Lew, who told lawmakers that the prospect of default had already caused interest rates to rise — and that worse lay ahead.

Appearing before the Senate Finance Committee, Lew said the Treasury must pay Social Security and veterans benefits as well as salaries to active duty military troops during the second half of this month. He

Ohio judge tells man he is Scott Carpenter, 3rd American in space, dies at 88 still legally dead & there’s not much that can be done

FINDLAY, Ohio (AP) — A man who disappeared decades ago is finding out there’s no easy way to come back from the dead.

Donald Miller Jr. went to court this week to ask a county judge to reverse a 1994 ruling that declared him legally dead after he had vanished from his home eight years earlier. But the judge turned down his request, citing a three-year time limit for changing a death ruling.

Hancock County Probate Court Judge Allan Davis called it a “strange, strange situation.”

“We’ve got the obvious here. A man sitting in the courtroom, he appears to be in good health,” said Davis, who told Miller the three-year limit was clear.

“I don’t know where that leaves you, but you’re still deceased as far as the law is concerned,” the judge said.

Miller resurfaced about eight years ago and went to court so that he could get a driver’s license and reinstate his Social Security number.

His ex-wife had opposed the move, saying she doesn’t have the money to repay the Social Security benefits that were paid out to her and the couple’s two children after Miller was declared dead.

Robin Miller said her former husband vanished because he owed big child support payments and see DEAD page 17

DENVER (AP) — Scott Carpenter, the second American to orbit the Earth, was guided by two instincts: overcoming fear and quenching his insatiable curiosity. He pioneered his way into the heights of space and the depths of the ocean floor.

“Conquering of fear is one of life’s greatest pleasures and it can be done a lot of different places,” he said.

His wife, Patty Barrett, said Carpenter died Thursday in a Denver hospice of complications from a September stroke. He lived in Vail.

Carpenter followed John Glenn into orbit, and it was Carpenter who gave him the historic sendoff: “Godspeed John Glenn.” The two were the last survivors of the famed original Mercury 7 astronauts

NYC bikers say driver started things before camera went on

NEW YORK (AP) — It’s a dramatic case built on amateur video that went viral — footage of motorcycles swarming around an SUV on a highway, the driver plowing over a biker to escape and a highspeed chase that ends with the driver pulled out and beaten in front of his family.

But as compelling as the footage is, it doesn’t answer a key question:What happened before the cameras were turned on?

Nearly two weeks later, some bikers are suggesting SUV driver Alexian Lien, knowingly or not, instigated the confrontation off-camera earlier by clipping one of the bikes in a rally on the Henry Hudson Parkway in Manhattan.

Authorities are looking into everything that unfolded along the ride’s path from lower to upper Manhattan, including a possibility that a motorcyclist hit the SUV, not the other way around, and broke its side mirror before the encounters on the video, said a law enforcement official, who hadn’t been authorized to discuss the inquiry and spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity.

Investigators are looking for other helmet-camera videos of the ride, which spurred 911 calls about the bikers’ behavior before the SUV driver’s beating.

In his one flight, Carpenter missed his landing by 288 miles, leaving a nation on edge for an hour as it watched live and putting Carpenter on the outs with his NASA bosses. So Carpenter found a new place to explore: the ocean floor.

4 Laconia shopkeepers label themselves ‘Vintage Row’ LACONIA — Four female business owners in Downtown Laconia will be showcasing their businesses Saturday afternoon as they unveil The Shops at Vintage Row with open houses and a block party featuring the music of Julia Vellie, vocalist and acoustic guitarist.

Located on the south side of the McIntyre Block just around the corner from a group of shops in the same building that front on Pleasant Street, the owners of the businesses are hoping to create a unique shopping experience and have either redone or are in the process of redoing their interiors, window displays and awnings.

The businesses on Vintage Row are New England Porch Rockers, the premier area destination for chair caning; Curiosity & Co., specializing in vintage and local goods; Chase Island Designs, creative screen printing; and Willow & Sage, Vintage Boutique.

Jean Howe Compton of New England Porch Rockers has been hand caning and seat weaving chair seats for many years and has just enlarged her shop, which has display windows on both Pleasant Street and Water Street and has been in that location for a year. ‘’ We have just enlarged and been able to add a showroom and a dedicated wood shop.,’’ says Compton, who grew up in Laconia and wants to see downtown become a destination for those seeking unique and vintage items.

Shelly Daniels Marcoux of Willow & Sage Vintage Boutique says that she has been working on her new shop since September 1 and still has a lot work to do, including repairs, painting and flooring. ‘’This is really a sneak peek and I plan to have a grand opening later this year,’’ says Marcoux.

Kris Nagemgast of Chase Island Design has created a Lobsterville Lobsters Collection, an eye catching assortment of pillows, dinner bibs, aprons and table runners and likes to do unique silk-screened items for her customers.

Stora Kamens of Curiosity & Company is a former English teacher at Franklin High School and takes the name of her store from the book “The Old Curiosity Shop,” by Charles Dickens. ‘’It’s also noteworthy that most of us have completely redone our shops, taking out the suspended from preceding page Mieses Jr., the biker who was crushed, claims Lien bumped another motorcycle while changing lanes on the highway 2 to 3 miles before his SUV knocked into biker Christopher Cruz.

ceilings to expose the beautiful tin, hanging new light fixtures, replacing awnings and generally spiffing things up. We’re hoping (as are our fellow merchants in the downtown area) to make downtown Laconia a destination point for people who enjoy browsing antique and vintage shops. Several of us carry locally-made items, including soaps, lotions, candles, jewelry, quilts, and other items. These are high quality products made by artisans who live right here in New Hampshire,’’ says Kamens.

She says that she’ll be serving some food on Saturday, and will be giving away gift certificates to the shop.

There will also be vendors with made in New England goods, as well as food, prizes and an opportunity to meet downtown Laconia’s newest business owners.

The party of pain Fans of representative democracy know that there are ways to advocate one’s beliefs short of threatening and delivering harm to the larger society. It used to be that one could blame the parade of manufactured crises not on the whole Republican Party but on its unruly tea party faction. That’s becoming less and less so as what remains of the pragmatic leadership caves in to the extremists’ demands.

The GOP’s perspective on governing seems to have moved from enlightenment to medieval. It’s become the party of pain.

Before I go on, let me salute some individual Republicans for standing up to the insanity within their party: Rep. Peter King of New York, Sen. Bob Corker of Tennessee, Rep. Charlie Dent of Pennsylvania. You represent the Republican Party of my father.

For all their patriotic posturing, the tea party bomb throwers don’t like America very much. Worse, they don’t understand how democratic governments or economies work. Some of their political leaders do know but don’t care, using their electorate’s confusion to enrich themselves off their bankroller billionaires and right-wing media.

There’s nothing to do about these voters. They won’t squawk until their own checks — for Medicare, Social Security, farm subsidies, roadwork — stop arriving. Tea party congressional districts tend to be poor, old, rural and on the receiving end. If anyone is a burden to productive America, they are.

And irony of ironies, by holding the federal budget ransom, they are making it hard for productive America to support them.

And so Obama had to cancel a trip to Asia to baby-sit Republican tantrums in Washington. The financial and psychological damage of this shutdown keeps rising.

The Republican Party’s staunchest allies — the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the National Association of Manufacturers — are now

tearing out their hair, demanding a stop to all this ignoramus talk about a debt default’s being no big deal.

“Our nation has never defaulted in the past, and failing to raise the debt limit in a timely fashion will seriously disrupt our fragile economy and have a ripple effect through the world,” wrote the president of NAM, nobody’s idea of a liberal.

You have the formerly pragmatic Republican Sen. Richard Burr of North Carolina speculating that a default on government debt is a manageable situation. Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul has his nutty solution: spending piecemeal. If there’s not enough tax money coming in during a particular month, he says, we can decide what it gets spent on. Great, let’s have fistfights every month over whether North Cascades National Park can answer its e-mail or not.

America’s savers and investors, meanwhile, are given a choice of a kneecapping or punch in the stomach.

It comes down to this: Either stock prices collapse now as a warning to Republicans that a default would be catastrophic or they stay stable for the time being in the investors’ belief that Republicans aren’t crazy enough to let it happen. If investors’ belief in Republican sanity proves wrong, then they get whacked.

One can distinguish less and less between irresponsible Republicans and the mature ones because the conscientious ones lack the guts or simple patriotism to stop the national wrecking crew within their party. We’re talking to you, House Speaker John Boehner and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell.

Looking forward to 2014, Republicans may have already lost their swing vote. And even districts packed with tea party discontents may not be so safe as they assume.

Once it sinks in that their checks come from Washington and not from heaven, the hotheads will turn on a dime. They’re all about themselves.

And please stop calling them “conservatives.”

U.S. no longer distinguishing between right & wrong on immigration To The Daily Sun, Flipping to the second page of the October 4th Daily Sun, I literally dropped my jaw upon reading that our nation has no problem allowing illegal immigrants to obtain drivers licenses, some not even distinguishing whether or not they license holder is the the country legally or not. Furthermore, the concern that was expressed in the article for “proper training” these illegals and normalizing their interactions and status by being provided with aid and comfort is enraging. Why do our leaders welcome these criminals with open arms? Would you put on a pot of hot coffee for a stranger who sneaked into your home? After all, he is merely an “undocumented house guest.” Why is this acceptable on such a larger-scale?

Michael Savage hit the nail on the head in that “liberalism is a mental disorder,” stating, “Section 8 of the United States Code, 1234 (a) (1) (A) (iv) (B) (iii) says ‘A person (including a group of persons, business, organization or local government) commits a federal felony when she or he” assists an illegal alien she/he should reason ably know is illegally in the U.S... or knowingly assists illegal aliens due to personal convictions. Isn’t providing illegals with driver’s licenses ‘knowingly’ assisting them?”

Our nation is no longer differentiating between the right and wrong way to go about migration, and quite frankly, we need to stop passing out the coffee.

LETTERS Meredith youngster had strength to stand for sportsmanship To The Daily Sun, On Thursday evening, October 3rd, Sandwich’s 5/6 soccer team hosted a team from Meredith and it was a wild raucous affair with lots of great plays and tons of cheering. The most important part of this game was in two acts.

Early in the game one of Sandwich’s players fouled a player from Meredith, missed the ball and whacked him in the shin. Ouch! He had to come out of the game to recover while I sat our player for the rest of the first half just for being a bit reckless.

Later, in the second half, this same young man from Meredith was dribbling towards our goal and got bumped and fell. This by definition is a penalty kick and as the referee put the ball in front of goal for him to take his earned shot one-on-one with our goalkeeper a remarkable thing happened. He walked to the referee and quietly told

him that he had tripped over his own feet and that he had not been bumped at all. This was in a tied game 1-1 that was back and forth with tough play by everyone.

This young man, Brady Malcolm, had the strength to do this by himself.

Even I, as the opposing coach, thought it was a foul and had no problem with the probable goal from this penalty kick. In a tied game, with well over a hundred people in attendance, he took it upon himself to do the right thing.

How many of us would have done that?

In a tied game with the chance to put your team in the lead? I am honestly reluctant to hear my own answer to that. This is what makes youth sports so great, this true learning moment for both players and spectators.

Well done Brady.

Leo Greene, Director Sandwich Parks & Recreation Dept.

The state is morally & financially responsible to FRM victims To The Daily Sun, The N.H. House must support SB-180 for the victims of the state’s multiple failures to enforce the law regarding FRM. The N.H. Banking Departments made “mistake after mistake, after mistake, after mistake” for nine consecutive years in six banking audits documenting 70 state and federal law violations and insolvency at FRM. Obviously this was more than a simple mistake. The bank commissioner’s two brothers were involved with FRM. Did banking turn a blind eye to FRM? The N.H. Banking Department made another “mistake” by not requiring FRM to acquire and maintain a fidelity bond as required by law to cover employee theft. This failure cost victims significantly.

The second agency to make more

than a simple mistake is the AG’s office, when their ex white collar crime attorney went to them twice in a one year period and informed them that FRM and Scott Farah were running a criminal scheme, while the same AG’s office had just received a similar report from a former FRM employee and another Farah company. There wasn’t a single investigation.

People with reasonable judgment or simple common sense must conclude the state is morally and financially responsible to the FRM victims.

Is the state setting a precedent by righting the wrongs it allowed to happen to the FRM victims? It is my opinion and that of many others, if it doesn’t, the state admits failure is the acceptable standard and is business as usual.

LOBSTER POUND

I’m opposed to the increasingly juvenile actions of Tea Party To The Daily Sun, As a fellow veteran (and strong supporter of Veterans’ programs), I respectfully disagree with my friend Bob Jones in his letter attacking our two congressional representatives for their vote not to separately fund the VA during the government shutdown.

In fact, both supported a bill to fund ALL agencies, including the VA, but it was deemed “not germane” (huh!!) by the Republican leadership and blocked from reaching the floor.

The bill in question is part of a cynical effort by the right wing of the Republican party (read, Tea party) to pit groups needing support against one another. We saw this in their pitiful actions at the WWII memorial with Tea Party minions rushing in to exploit Veterans for political gain an effort which the veteran’s groups wisely and quickly shut down.

Yes, veterans need and deserve full support from all Americans but anyone who knows veterans know that they would never place their needs above those of a hungry child or a critically ill mother. As is all too often the case, veterans are being used as political pawns in the destructive political tug-of-war in Washington in which right wing Republicans are cherry-picking support for those with the loudest political voices for their own myopic gain.

It is ironic that the Tea Party literally cheered when the government shut down, with their darling Michele Bachman saying “it’s exactly what we wanted...and we got it”. Their stated goal is to bring the government of the United States of America to its knees.

Sounds much like another terrorist group we are fighting doesn’t it?

Now that the heat is on, they are claiming that the shutdown wasn’t their fault it was someone (anyone) else’s fault and they are scurrying for cover with selected funding exceptions. To show how ridiculous all of this is, they have now voted back-pay for all furloughed workers. If we are paying them anyway, why are they not immediately put back to work helping all Americans, including veterans?

And no, I am not one of those “liberal lefties” that the right wing loves to attack. I am fiercely independent.

But I am opposed to the juvenile actions of the increasingly strident Tea Party. The funding issue can be resolved easily and quickly but the House speaker refuses to take the simple action of putting a funding bill without political strings attached to the vote, largely because he is also being blackmailed by the Tea Party.

And some of these same dimwits think that a debt default is a good thing and will have no deleterious consequences.

Both of our congressional representatives have a record of exceptionally strong support for veterans’ programs.

They are just not willing to play along with the Tea Party charade. Whether I do or do not vote for either of the two current congressional candidates in the next election will be based on substantive issues, not the irresponsible behavior of the Tea Party during this unnecessary and destructive government shutdown.

LETTERS Why wouldn’t we want not high standards, but the highest?

Chilly winds will blow!

To The Daily Sun, I have a few questions in response to Anne Rogers letter where she regurgitates the “party line” on Common Core Standards.

The ONLY reason for expending the massive time and resources instituting any new standards should be that it would benefit the children of N.H., I’m sure you would agree.

You state that these new Common Core Standards are more rigorous than N.H.’s current standards. I’m willing to concede that point however, it is also true (as you yourself seemingly point out) that the Common Core Standards are NOT the most rigorous of existing, time-tested standards that could have been adopted by N.H. State Board (or may still be adopted by individual school districts).

So I ask you, given that we all seem to agree that new standards were needed. . . Why would any school district not adopt the highest standards possible for it’s children?

This has been asked of the N.H. State Board of Education time and time again. . . Where is the comprehensive analysis they used to make the monumental decision of using Common Core vs. adopting any of the more rigorous standards from other states (for example Massachusetts)? Surely they did this analysis. Why not share that with the public and the school districts so that they might perform their own critical analysis that ironically the Common Core Standards are designed to instill in our children? I suspect the state board did no such analysis. For shame if that is the case.

The commissioner stated herself on videotape this past week that “school districts should decide whether to use Common Core or another set of standards”. She also stated that regardless of the standards used, the state will mandate that every k-12 public school student take the new assessment, Smarter Balance, (which will replace our failed NECAP tests) which are

aligned to Common Core beginning in 2015. These Smarter Balance tests are eventually required to be taken on computer (thank you Mr Microsoft/ Bill Gates for that!) leading school districts to significantly increase our school budgets for technology (purchases of bandwidth and computers for all). Why, you might ask, is this not unconstitutional? Section 28-a of our N.H. Constitution says that the state must pay for any mandates and yet no money is coming from the state or feds to pay for the outlay taxpayers in N.H. must endure.

Lastly, Ms. Rogers, among a number of inconsistencies in your response, let me point out just one,. You repeat the party line on the desire for commonality of standards across the country to create a “more level playing field” for those that frequently move. The Common Core Standards are supposed to be MINIMUM Standards, meaning that some states/districts will presumably desire to reach higher, in varying degrees, than these minimum Common Core Standards, correct? To continue your analogy of the NFL rules vs. the playbook, wouldn’t this mean that some districts have a much thicker playbook and students moving into those districts would have the same difficulty of catching up to the other students? I believe this stated goal of commonality to accommodate transient society is a red-herring.

There is much, much more to contradict in your letter, Ms. Rogers but I would like each responsible parent to ask three simple questions of their school board. If you feel it necessary to change our standards, have you (or anyone else) examined ALL the available standards, weighted those that have a history of working, and chosen the highest standards possible for our children? If not, why not? Where is that analysis?

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Friday, October 11, 2013 — Page 7

LETTERS Individuals don’t matter to progressives; they’re about the collective To The Daily Sun, A really bad week of political posturing was had by the progressive collective, otherwise known as the Democrat Party. So darn cocksure that the media will hide the truth, the Democrats brazenly and shockingly dissed aging veterans and sick children. Then like so many puffed up peacocks, they blamed the Republicans for shutting down the government when it is they who refused to take any action on numerous resolutions proposed and passed by Republicans to fund vital services.Now that takes chutzpah even with the “stoned on socialist weed” media providing them shameful cover.

It appears for all the world that President Obama is punishing his own citizens for political advantage.

Actually ordering his underlings to act against the best interests of the public. In an absolute shocking and spiteful maneuver, barricading 90-year-old WW II veterans from their once in a lifetime trip to honor their comrades. Something that has absolutely nothing to do with the partial government shutdown. Closing commissaries for our service men and women (thank you Sam’s Club for giving free passes for our vets). Closing Mount Vernon which doesn’t even involve federal property or personnel.

Forbidding Catholic priests from performing mass for the troops, even on a volunteer basis. Yes, let’s threaten to arrest Omaha Beach vets and Catholic priests in order to show the world how heartless those Republicans are.

Petty political theater of the absurd. Harry Reid’s “cold as ice” callous remarks regarding the funding of cancer trials for children in dire straights. Besides offering to fund essential services during the shutdown negotiations, Republicans have compromised on Obamacare repeatedly, by moving from defeating to defunding, to delaying for one year the individual mandate. In order to be fair and to work out the massive kinks in this not ready for prime time,

job killing, Constitution ball wrecking law. Oh yes, and to remove the special privileges and subsidies for Congress, the White House and their staff.

Obama and the Democrats say sorry, it’s our way or the highway because we don’t give a hoot about the welfare of our citizens. We’re in it to win it (the Capitol Hill battle) and besides, only our so-called benevolent leader can pick and choose which parts of the Affordable Care Act law he decrees should be delayed or ignored. Chutzpah and arrogance all wrapped in a secretive cone of narcissism.

I’m afraid Derek Hunter, Townhall. com is correct. “Individuals never have mattered to progressives; they are about the collective. Individuals are replaceable, interchangeable and expendable to progressives. Not those in power, naturally, but the faceless masses and ‘great unwashed’. History tells this tale repeatedly.” He goes on to note, “once you cede power to the government, you aren’t likely to get it back. A political movement willing to sacrifice children for the cause, a political philosophy with hundreds of millions of bodies behind it, will think nothing about adding a few more to the pile”. Sick children, aging veterans and Catholic priests, all appropriate, sacrificial lambs for the progressive agenda. When do you think the government will come after you?

This is socialism at it’s transparent worst, led by a phony Utopian leader who is using the lessons taught to him

by Saul Alinsky, Francis Fox Piven, Richard Cloward and Obama’s Marxist idols and mentors. Be afraid, be very afraid because we have a massive crisis brewing that has been created by our president, Democrats and establishment Republicans. Maybe Ted Crus hasn’t done everything picture perfect, but I love the man for standing on his principles and not backing down even though he is now the most hated man around D.C. and beyond. That kind of says it all for me.

LACONIA — An excavator working at the intersection of Mechanic Street and Walnut Street struck a 12-inch water main around 2:30 p.m. yesterday, sending some 200,000 gallons of water cascading down Walnut Street and Harrison Street, across Union Avenue, through the Irwin Marine yard and toward Paugus Bay, as well as along Mechanic Street to Stark Street.

Seth Nuttelman, superintendent of Laconia Water Works, said that the mishap left approximately 30 homes without running water during the five hours it took to repair the break.

Traffic moved along Union Avenue in both directions as the water swept across the roadway, Although the street was not damaged, there was some scouring beneath the shoulder and around the guardrail of the southbound lane, opposite Walnut Street.

A storm drain emptying into Paugus Bay carried a heavy load of silt into the water. However, see next page

Sleeping off duty police officer surprised by intruder

By Gail OBer

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA — An off-duty police officer got quite a surprise last Friday morning when he was sleeping at his parents’ home on Pine Street at 10:30 a.m. after some oral surgery and woke to find a burglar peering into his room.

The officer said he recognized Alan Johnstone, 23, of 37 Fair Street as someone he knew from school and, after a brief conversation, escorted him from his family’s home.

After their conversation, the off-duty officer (who doesn’t work for Laconia Police) called the Laconia Police, who began an investigation.

Johnstone is charged with one count of burglary.

He also said he heard someone opening the cabinets before Johnstone allegedly entered the bedroom.

During their conversation, affidavits obtained from the 4th Circuit Court, Laconia Division yesterday, noted that Johnstone told the officer that his mother had asked him to check in on him.

Police spoke with the homeowner who told them one of her rings was missing and she confirmed for city police that she had not told Johnstone to go into her home to check on her son.

Police said they interviewed a neighbor who told them she had allegedly seen Johnstone walking around the rear of the Pine Street Extension home.

She said she saw him knock on a sliding door and then allegedly crawl into the home through a high bathroom window.

During Johnstone’s video appearance in court yesSHUTDOWN from page 2 $16.7 trillion debt limit and setting up negotiations between the GOP and the president over spending cuts and other issues.

At the White House, spokesman Jay Carney told reporters the president would “likely sign” a shortterm extension in the debt ceiling, and did not rule out his doing so even if it left the shutdown intact.

Reid wasn’t nearly as amenable. “Ain’t gonna happen,” he said brusquely.

By the time House Republicans had returned from the White House hours later, Rep. Hal Rogers, R-Ky., said part of their hope was to “quickly settle” on legislation to permit the government to reopen.

Rogers, the chairman of the House Appropriations Committee, told reporters it was clear Obama would “like to have the shutdown stopped ... and we’re trying to find out what he would insist upon in the (legislation) and what we would insist upon.”

Heartened by any hint of progress, Wall Street chose to accentuate the positive. After days of decline, the Dow Jones

terday, Laconia Prosecutor Jim Sawyer said Johnstone had numerous prior criminal convictions, including four for forgery, one for receiving stolen property, and one for attempted burglary.

Sawyer asked for $10,000 cash bail.

Johnstone’s Atty. Robert Hemeon said Johnstone had “stopped by to see (the police officer)” and there was no reason for him to crawl through the window because the front door was open and he knew the victim’s son. Hemeon said his client wasn’t a fight risk, lived at home with his parents, and had turned himself in to police. He requested his client be released on personal recognizance bail.

In countering Hemeon, Sawyer said he wasn’t worried about Johnston fleeing. “My problem is the entry to this residence,” he said.

Hemeon argued that Johnstone had changed his everyday contacts since his release from jail and “his drug consumption has changed.” He also said Johnstone was working.

“I think there’s still a presumption of innocence,” Hemeon said.

Sawyer said the officer doesn’t live at this parents house and was only there because he had had surgery. He said there were no cars in the driveway and the victim’s son had found him going through the cupboards.

“He’s unable to control himself,” Sawyer said.

Judge Jim Carroll agreed and set bail at $10,000 cash only. Should Johnstone post bail, he is to live with his parents, stay away from the officer and his family, and to not go on to Pine Street Extension. industrial average soared 323 points on hopes that the divided government was taking steps to avoid a default. Reid’s dismissive comments at the White House came at the end of the trading day.

After more than a week of lost tourism, some governors prevailed on the Obama administration to let states use their own money to pay for national parks to reopen, Grand Canyon and Zion among them.

There was a catch — the Interior Department made it clear it didn’t plan to reimburse the states after the shutdown ends.

Senate Republicans forged ahead on an alternative of their own that would ease both the debt-limit and shutdown crises at once. Officials said that it would require Obama to agree to some relatively modest changes to the health care law that stands as his signature domestic achievement.

Nuttelman said that because the storm drain is downstream of the intake pipe that draws the municipal water supply from the bay, city water quality would not be affected.

Moreover, since Paugus Bay, which holds about 13 billion gallons of water, is the sole outlet for the 625 billion gallons of water in Lake Winnipesaukee, any pollutants are quickly diluted and, depending on the flow at the Lakeport Dam, soon flushed downstream.

“It’s not a bad situation,” said Nuttelman.

“There are no concerns.

Mayoral candidate Ed Engler shares vision for Laconia with Rotary Club

BY MICHAEL KITCH THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA — After fielding a flurry of questions from fellow Rotarians at the club’s weekly meeting yesterday, mayoral candidate Ed Engler said that “elections, including this election, are not about specific issues. They are about picking the most capable person to be mayor.”

Engler, co-founder, president and editor of The Laconia Daily Sun, is touting his record of business success and civic engagement in his race against Kailief Mitchell, an officer in the U.S. Navy Reserve and teacher at Spaulding Youth Center, to succeed retiring mayor Mike Seymour. Mitchell will be the guest of the Rotary Club next week.

After 36 years in the newspaper business, Engler said that he gained an understanding of “the necessity of dealing with people on a day-to-day basis to achieve common goals and of solving problems with the resources you have.” While stopping short of insisting that government run like a business, he allowed there is “some truth” in the notion and believed his experience equipped him to govern.

Much of the questioning bore on the demographic and economic challenges facing the city. Engler described the aging population, along with “a considerable level of poverty” and “high number of working poor” as the greatest threat to the future of the community. Referring to the shrinking school population, he said that “you’re either growing or you’re dying” and ways must be found “to keep people here and attract people here” to reverse these trends.

Although Engler said he had no “specific agenda,” he stressed that economic development, fostering “general prosperity,” is his highest priority, adding that “it pertains to just about anything you can name.” He noted that the city does not employ an economic development director and said that “the mayor needs to be the economic development director for the city.”

On the theme of economic development, Engler

suggested that the city pursue two particular opportunities. First, he said that manufacturers in the region have positions for qualified employees and development of an abundant supply of skilled labor would enable existing firms to expand as well as attract new firms to the area. Second, Engler said that the former Laconia State School property and adjoining tracts owned by the state, which together amount to some 400 acres, offer “the potential, and I emphasize potential, to be a game-changer for the city, Lakes Region and the state.” He said that his personal preference would be to work with the state to develop the site as a corporate headquarters or campus for corporate offices employing thousands of white-collar workers.

Noting that the Lakes Region has become a popular destination for retirees, Engler said that while this is to the city’s advantage, the demographics

have gotten “out of balance.” By a game-changer, he said, he meant development that would restore balance by generating opportunities for skilled and professional workers.

The future of downtown, Engler said, depends on reaching a consensus within the city on what downtown should be. “We have to start with the consensus then marshal the resources and pursue the goal,” he said. However, he added “if we’re going to invest in downtown, then we should invest in what the community wants, not what the people and businesses already downtown want.”

By not optimizing opportunities to recycle, Engler said that the city was burning a significant sum of money each year that could be spent on other projects. He noted that the 2013-2014 city budget rests on reducing the cost of disposing of solid waste by more than $200,000 and questioned whether that target can be met without collecting recyclable materials every week, which adds $90,000 to the solid waste budget. “If it doesn’t work,” he said, “we’re almost certainly going to Pay-As-You-Throw.”

Engler said he would welcome closer cooperation among municipalities and with the county to deploy resources and consolidate services. “Better management”, he said, “means making better use of the resources you have.” Although respectful of tradition, he said “I don’t want our slogan to be ‘because we’ve always done it that way.’” The tax cap, he explained, forces government to make optimal use of limited resources. “Everything should be on the table,” said Engler, who said that if elected, “I’d be willing to start those conversations.”

With the city bearing a fifth of the county tax burden, Engler said that the mayor, city council and five state representatives must “play a very politically active role” in the process of planning for the county jail. However, asked if he would do anything to help the Belknap County Convention and Belknap County Commission “play nice,” he answer with a flat “no.”

Alton bank robbed at gunpoint ALTON — The Wolfeboro Highway (Rte. 28) branch of Meredith Village Savings Bank was robbed at gunpoint yesterday afternoon.

Police Chief Ryan Heath said a single male entered the branch at 4:34 p.m. and brandished a black handgun.

Life was an adventure for Carpenter and he said it should be for others: “Every child has got to seek his own destiny. All I can say is that I have had a great time seeking my own.”

For Carpenter, the momentary fear was worth it, he said in 2011: “The view of Mother Earth and the weightlessness is an addictive combination of senses.”

For the veteran Navy officer, flying in space or diving to the ocean floor was more than a calling. In 1959, soon after being chosen one of NASA’s pioneering seven astronauts, Carpenter wrote about his hopes, concluding: “This is something I would willingly give my life for.”

“Curiosity is a thread that goes through all of my activity,” he told a NASA historian in 1999. “Satisfying curiosity ranks No. 2 in my book behind conquering a fear.”

SPORTS LHS boys’ soccer extends winning streak to 6 games The Laconia High School boys’ soccer team defeated White Mountains 2-0 on Wednesday, extending its winning streak to six games. Laconia did all of its damage in the first half, Aidan Dean scored first on an assist from Brayden Harriman, followed by Jake Sykes assisted by Brady Caldwell.

The game was a high intensity match from start to finish with both keepers making key saves to keep their teams in it. Dean netted the first goal after a long service in off a dead ball scooted through, slipping it past the keeper. The second goal came after a determined Caldwell drove the line and played a ball back towards the 18 for a waiting Jake Sykes to finish the well-played pass. Play continued throughout the match with White Mountains adding more and more pressure as the game went on. Laconia did well to handle the pressure and fend off the continual bombardment.

Goalkeeper Panthavy Pradachith recorded 4 saves for Laconia, while Josh Greenwood stopped 6 for White Mountains.

Belmont volleyball defeats Franklin in 3 sets Belmont High School Volleyball defeated Franklin 3-0 on Wednesday. Set scores were 25-13, 25-13, 25-11.

Belmont’s Megan Bailey recorded 7 aces, 2 kills, 24 assists. Bridget Annis had 5 aces, 4 kills, 1 dig.

Desiree Kuchinsky had three kills. Alex Luger scored 16 service points, including 5 aces, and Louisa Bergeron recorded 8 kills.

Said coach Melissa Miner, “Going into this match the Red Raiders wanted to play strong throughout the match. It was very important to us to not back down against the Tornados, we wanted to continue our winning streak. In order to do this, we needed to play like a team and tonight we did just that.

We passed, set and hit well and our communication was strong throughout the match.” Belmont’s record improved to 10-1.

Local runners set the pace at NH Marathon

By RogeR Amsden FOR THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

BRISTOL —The 21st Annual NH Marathon attracted participants from 40 states as well as 15 from foreign countries according to Dan MacLean, assistant Director of Recreation at the Tapply-Thompson Community Center.

Local participants placed well despite the out-of-town competitors. ‘’We ended up with 582 finishers in the 5 different events, 116 in the 10K, 169 in the half marathon, 239 in the full marathon, 17 in the health walk and 41 in the kids race,’’ said MacLean.

He said that runners came from Switzerland, Germany, South Korea and Canada and that there were two wheelchair entries and two barefoot runners in the race, which was run last Saturday on a course around Newfound Lake. ‘’It was a beautiful day for running and thanks to all the volunteers that helped – registration, parking, water stops and more. see next page At right: Dave Irving of New Hampton crosses the finish line in the New Hampshire Marathon.

Chiefs U5 team in position to fight for playoff spot The Laconia Chiefs U5 team hosted the Keene Knights on Sunday as they were looking to keep their 2 game win streak alive. The Chiefs won the toss but Keene was able to recover the onside kick.

With the youngsters from Laconia on the ropes, the Knights marched down the field and punched in the day’s first score. The extra point attempt made it a quick 7-0 lead for the visitors. Laconia wouldn’t stay down for long, as the Chiefs put together a nice drive of their own, culminating when QB Ryan Dee found wingback Kaleb Daignault in the corner of the endzone for a 15 yard scoring strike. The Chiefs weren’t able to convert the extra point but had pulled the game to within one, 7-6. Keene added another score, without the extra point, and had a 13-7 lead as the half was quickly coming to a close. Laconia had a big see next page

With nine players getting assists, the Gilford High School Golden Eagles field hockey team defeated Profile 6 - 0 on Tuesday. Four players had goals as Gilford raised its record to 10 - 0 - 1. The defense continued its season-long work to support goalie Ashlyn Miller. Mariah Nelson and Shannon Anderson were two of the Eagles involved in the positive passing.

GFD to host open house Project Safeguard event in

Ellen Ward’s third grade class from Pleasant Street School walked to the Belknap Mill to see the Flying High - History of the Laconia Airport and Lakes Region Aviation Exhibit. Students were able to view informational text and practice note taking skills by participating in a scavenger hunt. The students were thoroughly engaged and excited to be learning about our beautiful community. The children in the photo are from the left: Makayla Ricks, Evin DeVos and Isabel Laramie.

from preceding page run by its tailback Phil Nichols, which led to fullback Nolen Perrino punching one in from the 3 yard line. The Knights defense again stuffed the extra point attempt, but the Chiefs went into the half only down by 1, 13-12.

The defense made some key adjustments in the second half and came out fired up. Defensive tackle Garret Mango and linebackers Aaron Williams and Perrino started attacking the Keene run game and managed to shut them down. The offense was propelled by tailback Phil Nichols, who scored two touchdowns in the half on some great runs of 45 and 65 yards respectively.

He finished the day with an impressive 136 yards on 18 carries and 2 touchdowns. Dee and Daignault were both able to record an extra point to give the home team a 26-13 lead. Keene tried to get something going with their next offensive possession, but Dee, playing safety, stepped in front of a Knight pass for his first interception of the season and put an end to any chance the Knights had of staging a comeback.

The win improves the Chiefs record to 4-2 with their last home game coming this weekend against Hudson. The tam will wrap up its season on the road at Goffstown. If they are able to keep the win streak alive, there is a very real possibility that they could make the playoffs. Game time this weekend is 2 p.m.

GILFORD — On Saturday, October 26 from 11 a.m. – 2 p.m. the Fire and EMS professionals of Gilford will host an open house providing an interactive day of fire prevention, station tours and games for the kids as well as a free pizza lunch for everyone to enjoy.

There will also be a Live Fire burn demonstration to show the effectiveness of home fire sprinklers. For more information contact Firefighter Dion DeCarli at the fire station at 527-4758 or djdecarli@ gilfordnh.org

Dreyer also said she has been in e-mail contact with the superintendents from Gilford, Laconia, and Winnisquam about possible sporting events scheduled for Belmont that may have to be held earlier in the day or postponed to a day after a hard frost.

Fire Chief Dave Parenti said he was first notified about the West Nile Virus around 4 p.m. from the Code Enforcement/Health Officer Steve Paquin.

West Nile Virus and its evil cousin Eastern Equine Encephalitis are mosquito-borne illnesses that can infect humans. Although cases in humans are rare, an active infection can cause flu-like symptoms that

IRISH PUB from page one nia church — originally constructed at the corner of Church and North Main Streets, in front of the Public Library — to a large split-level ranch house, explaining that a staircase at the entrance leads to an upper and lower level. He said that while he is still in the process of preparing plans he expects the dining room and bar will be on the upper level while a “village setting” with a cafe as its centerpiece would occupy the lower level, which would be lined with he called “faux shops,” offering bakery items, packaged foodstuffs and perhaps Irish products. He described the lower level as a space for people to congregate while waiting for a table or enjoying a coffee after dinner.

Kennedy said that he plans to add a second story to a triangular addition at the rear of the building where for the kitchen, offices, utilities and storage.

In Epping, he said he was able to provide seating in the choir loft of St. Joseph’s Church above the main floor of the dining area and has contemplated adding a mezzanine to the Evangelical Church if the structure will support it.

Because the the building occupies the entire lot, Kennedy said that finding a discreet place for a dumpster has proved his sternest challenge. He said that conversations with neighboring businesses have been encouraging and is confident of resolving the issue.

The menu, like that in Epping, will feature traditional Irish offerings like shepherd’s pie, fish and chips, corn beef and cabbage and boiled dinner along side more conventional fare like steak, seafood, pasta and burgers. He said that daily and seasonal

Susan Laverack at the Lakes Region Partnership for Public Health said people should avoid being outside at dawn and at dusk. She recommends wearing long-sleeved clothing, long pants, and socks when outside.

She said the recommendations Dreyer made for Belmont’s students are the same as what she would recommend for all residents.

Dreyer said the e-mail she sent to parents made a similar request about clothing.

MAKE A WISH from page one The son of Jesse and Alison Thompson, John was hoisted atop the limousine by his father near the end of the ceremony, where he waved to his fellow students, many of whom held signs wishing him well and expressing their support for him in his struggle with the rare form of cancer. ‘’The community and the school have all been so great, so supportive,’’ said his has grandmother, Darryl Thompson, as the limousine pulled out of the driveway at the school.

The Thompson family is very familiar with the Make a Wish Foundation, having donated nearly $3,000 to the organization in April of 2012 when Jesse appeared on the Wheel of Fortune television game show and held a party at the Lyons Den restaurant in Glendale for invited guests the night it was aired.

John was diagnosed with Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG) on June 2 this year after being taken by his parents to the emergency room at Boston Children’s Hospital after experiencing double vision and dizziness and reaching the point where he was unable to lift his chin off his chest.

An MRI revealed a large, aggressive tumor his brain stem.

A brain biopsy was taken to obtain tissue samples and on June 13 John traveled to Memphis, Tennessee to join a Phase I Trial Study at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. He

received six weeks of radiation treatment, started daily chemotherapy and returned home to Gilford on August 1. He is enrolled in an experimental chemotherapy clinical trial at St. Jude and returns there frequently for tests. Only 150 cases are of DIPG are diagnosed each year, making it so rare that there is no federal funding for research.

A web site, Think John Bradley, provides updates on his condition A sports fan who is passionate about his artwork, John has two little sisters, Clara (4 years old) and Elizabeth (7 months) and a big yellow dog named Jackson.

Family members say that John has been feeling good, hanging out with his friends and checks daily on his blog, where he has been reading the comments and absorbing positive vibes.

A fund known as the JB Thompson Fund has been set up to accept donations from the fundraisers which are being held in the community for John. Two two are coming up in the near future, JBT Night at Patrick’s Pub & Eatery on Tuesday, October 15 from 4 p.m. to close where 50 percent of the food portion of the checks will be donated, and The Cure Starts Now at Gunstock Mountain Resort on Saturday, October 26. The evening will feature a meal, a program, a live auction and dancing to local favorite Paul Warnick and Phil ‘n the Blanks.

DEAD from page 2 that the overdue payments had totaled $26,000 by 1994, The (Findlay) Courier reported.

Miller, 61, told the judge that he disappeared in the 1980s because he had lost his job and he was an alcoholic.

He lived in Florida and Georgia before

returning to Ohio around 2005.

His parents told him about his “death” when he came back to the state, he said.

“It kind of went further than I ever expected it to,” Miller said. “I just kind of took off, ended up in different places.”

Science on tap at Biederman’s Pub on Tuesday PLYMOUTH — On Tuesday, October 15 at 6pm, Biederman’s Deli and Pub will be hosting the first Science Brew Café in partnership with Plymouth State University’s Center for the Environment and Environmental Science and Policy Department.

Science Cafés are unique. They are designed for people to learn about science and meet scientists in a comfortable, community setting. Eveyone is invited to come grab some food and a drink and be ready to learn and ask questions in a casual setting.

Researchers will speak briefly about their work and the majority of time will be a conversation between the audience and the scientist.

The topic on tap for the first Science Café is “Sensing New Hampshire’s Streams and Rivers.” Mark Green, Ashley Hyde, and Errin Volitis from Plymouth State University will provide an overview of their work studying rivers and streams in New Hampshire. Clear mountain streams flowing from the White Mountains and powerful industrial rivers are hallmarks of New

Hampshire’s rich natural beauty and cultural heritage. While our waters are of exceptional quality in most cases, there are still water quality and quantity issues. Water sensors have recently been deployed in streams and rivers across New Hampshire (including several in the local area) to better understand water quantity and quality.

This effort, which draws on community volunteer monitors, has been active for one year. The conversation will focus on what is being observed and learned, and how it may help water resources management in the region. The conversation can focus on water resources in central New Hampshire as well as resources across the State and in the region.

Food and drink can be ordered from the menu, admission is free.

The state currently has ongoing Cafés in Portsmouth, Nashua, and Lebanon.

Support for this event is also being provided by NHEPSCoR and the National Science Foundation.

OBITUARY

Evelyn G. Richelson, 89 PLYMOUTH — Evelyn G. Richelson, 89, formerly of Randolph St. peacefully passed away on October 10, 2013 at 2 a.m. at Peabody Home in Franklin, NH. Evelyn was born in Boston, MA on September 24, 1924, one of five children of Morris Haverback and Tillie (Fiman) Haverback of Haverhill, MA. She was predeceased by her parents and her brother Jack. She grew up in Haverhill, graduated from Haverhill High School in 1942, and went on to attend Hebrew College in Boston. Upon graduation, she became a teacher at Temple Emanu-El in Haverhill.

In 1952, Evelyn married Irwin Richelson of Plymouth, NH, and moved to Plymouth where her husband was a partner in his family’s long-established business, Richelson’s Department Store. She became involved with the business helping out as clothing buyer, sales person and bookkeeper, and was often seen jogging in her dress shoes on her way to work, greeting neighbors on her way. She continued working until the store closed in 1992. She and Irwin were married for 51 years, until his passing in 2003.

In addition to being devoted to raising three sons and actively participating in Richelson’s store, Evelyn also contributed much to the community life of Plymouth. She served as vice-president of the Junior Woman’s Club and Treasurer of the Pemigewasset Woman’s Club. She also served as an adviser to the Order of Rainbow for Girls under her membership in the Bethlehem chapter, Order of Eastern Star. She was an avid supporter of the Plymouth Lions Club, attending meetings with Irwin and helping out at many of their functions. Evelyn worked as chairperson of fundraising drives for a number of organizations, including the Heart Fund, Cancer Fund and the Cancer Commission for Grafton County Unit East. In addition, she assisted in the Sceva Speare Memorial Hospital membership drive.

She was also quite active as a leader in Plymouth Cub Scout Pack 56, serving as a den mother for a number of years. In August, 1966, Evelyn was featured in the New Hampshire Sunday News as Cook of the Week, sharing several of her successful Club and family recipes.

From the 1970s to the early 1990s, she sang in the New Hampshire Music Festival Symphonic Chorus, which performed along with its Symphonic Orchestra throughout New Hampshire.

She is also survived by her five grandchildren, Caitlin Jacobs of Lowell, MA, Michael Richelson of Derry, NH, Tyler Richelson of Derry, NH, Sarah Richelson of Quincy, MA, and Margo Richelson of Framingham, MA. In addition, she is survived by her sister Harriet Sandler of Bowie, MD, her brother Dr. Chester Haverback of Bethesda, MD and her sister Rose Haverback of Boston, MA, as well as numerous nieces and nephews.

Brown Bag Seminar Oct. 17 to discuss LinkedIn PLYMOUTH — The Plymouth Regional Chamber of Commerce will present the next Brown Bag Luncheon Seminar on Thursday October 17, from noon to 1 p.m.at Pease Public Library in Plymouth.

Linda Whitworth, Managing Director at Derek Marshall Lighting, LLC in Sandwich, wrote, “Up to this time, I was, typically, very uninformed about LinkedIn and had not bothered to avail myself of its power. Bob changed all that with great information,

PSU honors 2 profs for excellence & achievement

Plymouth State University has recognized Education Professor Mary Cornish (left) and English Professor Robin DeRosa for excellence and achievement as professional educators. (Courtesy photo)

PLYMOUTH — Plymouth State University has recognized Education Professor Mary Cornish and English Professor Robin DeRosa for excellence and achievement as professional educators. Cornish received the Award for Excellence in Faculty Service and DeRosa received the Award for Distinguished Scholarship at the University’s Faculty Day event August 28. PSU Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs Dr. Julie Bernier said both recipients exemplify dedication and excellence to their students, the institution and their profession.

“Listening to their acceptance speeches left no question in my mind why these two faculty members were chosen by their colleagues,” Bernier said.

“They are both stellar examples of teacher scholars who care deeply about the success of their students.”

Plymouth State University’s Award for Excellence in Faculty Service is awarded to the faculty member who best exemplifies the goal of balanced and sustained service that has had a quality impact on the campus, the faculty members profession, or the broader community.

Cornish joined PSU’s faculty in 2000; since then, she has made many contributions to PSU through service, from advising the Early Childhood Studies Club to chairing the Interdisciplinary Studies Council and the Faculty Welfare Committee. She served as co-director of the Plymouth Writing Project, helped establish the PSU Early Childhood Studies/Newfound Area School District K–3 Professional Development School, and provided professional development and led reflective practice groups for K–12 teachers.

Although the focus of her service activities vary, they all revolve around a common theme of educational innovation and reform, with the goal of improving teacher education and training, increasing educational standards and expectations, and above all, improving the quality of care and education for young children.

Service was gratifying, because service work is a guiding principle for her life’s work.

“It’s something I do because I feel compelled to engage in my work; service enriches and informs my teaching and scholarship,” noted Cornish “There is tremendous value in people working together to impact teaching and learning.”

Since joining the faculty at PSU in 2000, DeRosa’s work is the model of the kind of interdisciplinary research prevalent in English studies today. She is interested in how we perform and construct the world around us, whether it is through her work on the Salem witch trials or tourist destinations like New Hampshire’s historic Old Man in the Mountain site. DeRosa’s work, which includes dozens of publications and presentations, not only taps into popular subjects, but also explores the ways in which we interpret and experience the past.

“The past isn’t something we can recreate with certainty, but that’s what makes it a complex and rich subject to explore,” DeRosa said. “Staying current in my field and researching new avenues of thought helps me remember that the best scholars are also the best students. I like thinking of my classroom as a collaborative space where we are all learning together.”

Get Fuzzy

By Holiday Mathis

to really love someone, the physical, emotional and spiritual components must all be in place. Two out of three isn’t enough for you.

You’ll strive for a multidimensional connection.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your bravery is like an invitation to the world to open its doors to you. Those around you assume you can handle the big adventures, and so you are given more opportunities.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Emotionally, you are like a sea creature. You have no fear of the deep waters; it’s the shallow water that gives you a fright. Do not mistake the lighthearted for shallow, though. They may quite simply be happy.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Oct. 11). You’ll sway opinions and woo people with your declarations. Have fun with your influence, but don’t take it too seriously. You’ll enjoy yourself even more when someone else is in charge next month. December adds intensity to a relationship. There’s a big buildup to a wildly successful January event. Aquarius and Sagittarius people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 41, 44, 38 and 13.

by Chad Carpenter

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Bottom line: Your life feels full because you care about those around you. But if you live totally for them, who is the one doing the caring? You can give of yourself without sacrificing your whole being.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The reason you are so persistent is that you can see the end goal in your mind’s eye. Without this clarity of vision, you would have lost heart long ago. Paint the picture for someone who is having trouble seeing as well as you.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You don’t expect anyone to build the world you want.

You know that not only are you the most qualified to do it, but you’re also the only one who will create it to your specifications.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll notice the quality of people’s character and their way of connecting. Your gift for crisp, accurate sight allows you to choose the best person to receive your attention.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your dreams are like a net that you toss into the ether -and you never know what they’ll bring back to you. New people, places and things will populate your life just because you put some force behind those dreams.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You have a gift for communicating well now. Use it to say what you couldn’t say before, or use it to speak for the one who has no voice. You and a Capricorn share a special connection.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Pleasure is not the absence of pain. This is partly why doing just enough is actually not enough at all. Go for the wow factor, or what’s the point?

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your friends will want you to conform to their wishes, and it will be mighty tempting to join the group.

However, by not honoring your own wishes, you may be doing the world an even greater disservice.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Keep your cool when the work gets hard or the stakes get raised. Today is like a reality game show: all hype and edgy music. Don’t panic, and you could win this one.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). For you

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Friday, October 11, 2013— Page 23

––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Friday, Oct. 11, the 284th day of 2013.

There are 81 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Oct. 11, 1962, Pope John XXIII convened the first session of the Roman Catholic Church’s Second Vatican Council, also known as “Vatican 2.”

On this date: In 1779, Polish nobleman Casimir Pulaski, fighting for American independence, died two days after being wounded during the Revolutionary War Battle of Savannah, Ga. In 1811, the first steam-powered ferryboat, the Juliana (built by John Stevens), was put into operation between New York City and Hoboken, N.J. In 1862, during the Civil War, Confederate forces led by Gen. J.E.B. Stuart looted the town of Chambersburg, Pa. In 1890, the Daughters of the American Revolution was founded in Washington, D.C. In 1910, Theodore Roosevelt became the first former U.S. president to fly in an airplane during a visit to St. Louis, Mo. In 1932, the first American political telecast took place as the Democratic National Committee sponsored a program from a CBS television studio in New York.

In 1942, the World War II Battle of Cape Esperance began in the Solomon Islands, resulting in an American victory over the Japanese.

In 1958, the lunar probe Pioneer 1 was launched; it failed to go as far out as planned, fell back to Earth, and burned up in the atmosphere.

In 1968, Apollo 7, the first manned Apollo mission, was launched with astronauts Wally Schirra, Donn Fulton Eisele and R. Walter Cunningham aboard. The government of Panama was overthrown in a military coup.

In 1984, space shuttle Challenger astronaut Kathryn Sullivan became the first American woman to walk in space.

In 1986, President Ronald Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail S. Gorbachev opened two days of talks concerning arms control and human rights in Reykjavik, Iceland.

In 1992, in the first of three presidential debates, three candidates faced off against each other in St. Louis, Mo. — President George H.W. Bush, Arkansas Gov. Bill Clinton and businessman Ross Perot.

Ten years ago: A team of 18 doctors at Children’s Medical Center Dallas began complicated separation surgery for 2-year-old conjoined twins from Egypt; the successful operation was completed in 34 hours. Clerks for three major supermarket chains in Southern California began a 4 1/2-month strike after negotiations with store officials broke off.

Five years ago: President George W. Bush and foreign financial officials, meeting at the White House, displayed joint resolve in combatting the unfolding financial crisis.

One year ago: Vice President Joe Biden and Republican opponent Paul Ryan squared off in their only debate of the 2012 campaign. The two interrupted each other repeatedly as they sparred over topics including the economy, taxes and Medicare.

Women’s fitness club yard sale to benefit Santa Fund GILFORD — Zoom Fitness in Gilford will be holding a yard sale this Saturday with all of the proceeds to be donated to the Santa Fund of the Greater Lakes Region.

“I wanted to have a yard sale for charity, the women quickly got on board and the Santa Fund is a great organization to support”, said Zoom Fitness Manager Kim Gustafson. “Many area residents aren’t aware that the Santa Fund helps people in need year round”.

The Santa Fund is perhaps best known for providing new outerwear and boots for local children as winter approaches. They also help children and

families with other financial support throughout the year. “Our unofficial slogan is “No matter the season, when there’s a reason, the Santa Fund is here to help”, said Janet Brough, Santa Fund co-chair.

Zoom Fitness is a circuit training workout club owned, managed and for women.

The charity yard sale is indoor, rain or shine, Saturday October 12 from 8 a.m, to 2 p.m. Located in Paugus Bay Plaza, turn right after China Bistro with plenty of parking in the back. 100% of money raised will be donated to the Santa Fund. For more information call Kim Gustafson at 455-8507.

PLYMOUTH — The Silver Center of the Arts at Plymouth State University will host an exhibition of prints by more than 20 New Hampshire-based printmakers October 16-December 13.

Artists who have revisited an earlier work and reimagined a theme that has held for them to this day will present their new works. “The work will be one that engages that theme while rethinking size, color, new composition or process, or some other variable,” according to exhibition curator Parker Potter.

A reception will be held Friday, October 18 from 4–6 p.m. at the Silver Center.

A law clerk for the New Hampshire Supreme Court, Potter became known on the New Hampshire printmaking scene as a juror, critic and curator in the 1990s.

He has been chair of the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen’s gallery committee and has been a member of the League’s board of trustees. Each year he organizes a print show at the League’s Annual Craftsmen’s Fair in Sunapee.

Potter and his wife, Nancy Jo Chabot, have collected prints, primarily editioned prints by New Hampshire printmakers, for more than 20 years.

Their collection runs the gamut from works by students to works by internationally known artists.

The Silver Center, on Main Street in Plymouth, is open Monday–Thursday, 10 a.m.–4 p.m, Friday 8 a.m.–5 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday, noon–6 p.m.

Silver is closed on PSU holidays.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Dear Annie: I am a 36-year-old man. I was in an accident 25 years ago and suffered a mild traumatic brain injury. It was tough growing up. When I was 23, I moved out on my own.

This is when the real trouble began. First, I started drinking, and then I abused my medication. In 2002, I wrecked my car while driving intoxicated. The judge told me to go to a brain injury rehab and get my life back in order. I started my first one six months later. I am in my fourth one right now.

My parents became my legal guardians without discussing it with me. After the accident, I received money from a settlement and was assured by the attorney that no one could touch it without my approval. Yet my parents have gone through that money without any input from me. They used it to get their house ready to sell and promised to reimburse me. They sold the place a year ago, and now they have the nerve to say that I gave them the money as a “gift.” I did no such thing. What now? -- J.D. Dear J.D.: You need to talk to a lawyer. Your parents undoubtedly requested guardianship in order to protect you at a time when you were going through some difficulties.

And it’s also possible they expended a great deal of money on your care and rehab and felt that taking the settlement money was somehow justified. The judge who issued the guardianship can be asked to remove it. But in order to get the money back from your parents, you might have to sue them.

Dear Annie: I recently lost my wife after many years together. It was an amazing marriage, and I miss her immensely.

I am looking to find a companion. The problem is, my daughter is not in my corner on this issue. How can I reason with her that it’s my life and dating or even marrying again is not being disrespectful to my late wife’s memory?

-- Lonely Widower Dear Widower: How long ago is “recently”? While your dating life is not your daughter’s business, we can understand her concern if your wife died less than six months ago.

She may worry that you will rush into an inappropriate or abusive relationship out of loneliness, so please be cautious.

Regardless, this is your decision. Please talk to your daughter and assure her that no one will take her mother’s place in your heart, but you miss the companionship and warmth that another person can provide. Explain that it is unfair of her to expect you to remain alone for the rest of your life, and you hope she will someday be happy for you if you find love again.

Dear Annie: After reading the letter from “Broken” about her husband’s affair with his father’s hospice nurse, my hair is on fire!

I am a licensed clinical social worker by profession and have been CEO of a large regional hospice for 27 years. In hospice, both the patient and family are one unit of care. Professional boundaries are important. This work is emotional and intimate by its nature. But sexual or personal relationships are never appropriate. Patients and families are in a vulnerable position. The supervision of that nurse and her ethical standards are absolutely unacceptable.

“Broken” should ask for the administrator of that hospice program and make a formal complaint. If she does not get a response or resolution, she should make a complaint to the agency in her state that licenses and regulates hospice providers. She would be doing others a favor by not allowing this kind of behavior to continue. Any hospice that allows such a situation to continue unchecked should not be able to care for patients and their families. -- I Am Appalled

Author to sign copies of book about Bob Montana MEREDITH — Gilford author Carol Lee Anderson, will be signing copies her latest book, The New England Life of Cartoonist Bob Montana: Beyond the Archie Comic Strip, at Hawkins Photography and Framing, 73 Main Street in Meredith, on Monday, October 14, from 1–3:30 p.m. The event is free and open to the public.

Published by The History Press, the book chronicles the life of one of America’s greatest cartoonists, Bob Montana, who drew the Archiecomic strip for thirty years at his home in Meredith. Montana’s daughter, Lynn Montana, lives and works in Meredith and is a designer/framer at Hawkins Photography and Framing.

Anderson got the idea to write the book when she was conducting research for her first book, The History of Gunstock: Skiing in the Belknap Mountains, also published by The History Press and winner of the 2011 Skade Award from the International Skiing History Association.

At left: Gilford author, Carol Lee Anderson, stands with Lynn Montana, left, and George Hawkins, right, in front of Hawkins Photography and Framing at 73 Main Street in Meredith across from the Meredith post office.

It was a 1947 Archie comic strip featuring the main characters (Archie, Jughead, Betty and Veronica) skiing at Gunstock that inspired Anderson to investigate if other local scenery was included in Archie. She discovered that Montana often tucked local people, places and events into the comic strip more times than not.

“What surprised me the most,” said Anderson, “wasn’t the fact that people don’t know that local people and places were drawn into the Archie strip, but the fact that they aren’t aware that Bob Montana had been a permanent, year-round resident of Meredith for thirty years. He raised his family there and drew the strip at his home on Meredith Neck.”

The book describes the development of the Archie comic, but Anderson feels that what will amaze readers the most is learning how much Montana contributed to Meredith, but to the state and the country as well. Surprisingly, little has been written about his life in the Lakes Region.

Anderson met with the cartoonist’s daughter, Lynn Montana, before she began writing the book. “Lynn has been extremely helpful and supportive all the way through this project. Through her recollections of her father and her family life in Meredith, I was see next page

“Everyone who purchases a Derby ticket has a chance to win cash prizes,” according to Betsey Donovan, Chairman of the 2014 Derby. “We have 14 drawings on Saturday for $100 each, and 32

Fishing tournament for disabled vets this weekend

GILFORD — The New England Paralyzed Veterans Association and Northern Bass Supply will be hosting a fishing tournament for disabled veterans over Columbus Day Weekend.

Participating veterans will be staying at Silver Sands resort in Gilford and will go fishing for the day on Lake Winnipesaukee, then they will go on to Edge of Woods campground where they will join John Scannell and Tiny Lafontaine – CEO of the bass trail of the New England Paralyzed Veterans – to have prizes, food, beverages and lots of laughs.

Edge of Woods will make the facility available to the veterans as well as the public.

The NEPVA offers two bass trail tournaments annually. One is held at the Charles River in Boston and the second is held in Moultonboro at camp Robindel.

For more information on NEPVA please go to http:// www.nepva.org/. For more information on Edge of Woods please go to http://www.edgeofwoods.com/.

The primary focus of NEPVA is veterans’ issues, notably quality healthcare for veterans with spinal cord injuries and dysfunction. NEPVA is interested in all issues affecting the lives of persons with disabilities. NEPVA routinely works with other civic groups and agencies and has always been a strong advocate for accessibility to all aspects of life that are available to the general population.

drawings on Sunday for $100 each. Additionally, we have a $5,000 cash drawing on both Saturday and Sunday, and you don’t even have to fish to be eligible for these prizes, all you need is a valid Derby ticket.”

Late breaking Fishing Derby information is always available on the Meredith Rotary Club website and on Facebook. The 2014 Fishing Derby Brochure will be mailed to more than 10,000 fishermen throughout New England in November. The brochure outlines the rules and regulations for the Derby and also includes a Registration Form visit www.meredithrotary.org.

from preceding page able to write a far more in-depth story of her father’s life,” she explained. Many Montana family images are included in the book, as well as the memories of Bob Montana’s friends, which were gathered by the author during interviews.

“Bob Montana was non-stop action, and he was constantly involved in his community; he was continually striving to make the world around him a better place despite the relentless deadlines of turning out a daily comic strip – including the more elaborate Sunday strip,” Anderson said.

She said that writing a book about such a talented and generous man has been a life-changing experience and hopes that readers of the book will come away with a new outlook on life. “Bob’s life story is truly fascinating, and no matter where he was or how tough things got, he’d always find the humor in a situation – and that’s something so many of us struggle to do,” she added.

Books will be available for purchase during the signing. Light refreshments will be served.

Plymouth Democrats host health care talk PLYMOUTH — The Plymouth Area Democrats will be hosting a discussion by a group of health care and insurance professionals at its regular monthly meeting on Wednesday, October 16 , at 7 p.m.

Representatives from Mid-State Health Center, Speare Memorial Hospital, and the New Hampshire Insurance Department will present information concerning various aspects of the health care law as it applies to New Hampshire families, individuals, and small businesses. At the conclusion of their presentations, the panelists will entertain questions from the audience.

The health care law offers a number of new rights and protections that will provide greater choice and control over your health coverage when key parts of the law take effect in 2014. It will be essential to understand those rights and protections in order to make the best decisions concerning health insurance in the coming months.

This is a non-partisan, informational event. The Plymouth Area Democrats welcome the public, regardless of political party. Meetings are held at the Plymouth Regional Senior Center on Depot Road in Plymouth. For further information, please call 968-7105.
