Gilford schools returning $1.5 million to taxpayers By Gail OBer
THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
GILFORD — After closing the books on the 2012-2013 school year, district administrators said they have a $1.476-million (6.4 percent) surplus that will be returned to taxpayers in the form of a credit against this year’s property tax commitment. School Board Chair Sue Allen said yesterday that there were no emergency or
safety issues that have to be addressed so the plan is to return it all. “Our goal is always to the mindful of the taxpayers,” Allen said. The 2012-2013 school district budget was $22,992,075 of which $14,049,394 was raised by local taxes. Town Finance Director Geoff Ruggles said the local school budget accounted for $9.21 per $1,000 in assessment or about one-half of the total
tax rate of $18.31. School Business Administrator Scott Isabelle said yesterday that the revised amount to be raised by local taxes in 2013 is estimated now to be $13,089,289 but it hasn’t been confirmed by the N.H. Department of Revenue. Superintendent Kent Hemingway said yesterday that three things contributed to see SUrPLUS page 8

LACONIA — The City Council this week unanimously authorized the expenditure of up to $35,000 toward the cost of installing a 10 inch water main-llne to the former Evangelical Baptist Church on Veterans Square, which David and Maureen Kennedy of Hampton, owners of Holy Grail Food and Spirits, intend to convert to a restaurant and pub. The council acted on the recommendation of the Downtown Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Advisory Board to draw half the cost, up to $35,000, of the water line from the TIF fund, which has a current balance of $311,353 and projected revenue of $173,687 this year. The Kennedys will bear half the cost extending the line from Main Street to the lot. City Manager Scott Myers explained that the current 1-inchline water service to the building would see WaTEr page 8

Obama lashes Republicans as U.S. government reopens
CONCORD — New Hampshire’s highest court went to a high school to hear arguments in a case it thought would resonate with the more than 500 students in the audience: Whether reading a text message while driving can amount to recklessness worthy of a prison sentence. The dozens of students who lined up at two microphones to question the lawyers after Thursday’s arguments suggested they’d picked a winner. “The students feel invested in the cellphone case,” said Brenda Barth, a history teacher at Bow High School who accompanied 70 students to the court’s “On the Road” session at Concord High School. “It’s not just about cellphones. It’s about driving while distracted.” Chad Belleville, 30, is serving a 3 1/2- to 7-year sentence for vehicular assault and second-degree assault. He told police he was reading a text message see TEXTING page 13
WASHINGTON (AP) — In withering dayafter criticism, President Barack Obama declared Thursday that the 16-day partial government shutdown was a Republicanprovoked spectacle that “encouraged our enemies” around the world. Elsewhere in Washington, and around the country, federal employees simply streamed back to their jobs. National parks reopened. The popular panda cam at the National Zoo came back online. But there was no letup in the political fight. Fresh from a defeat, tea party groups and their allies renewed fundraising efforts with a promise of future assaults on Obama’s health care overhaul — and a threat of more election primaries against Republican incumbents who don’t stand with them. Government spending was still front and center. Inside the Capitol, lawmakers
charged with forging a post-shutdown deficit-cutting agreement in the next 60 days met privately. “We believe there is common ground,” said Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., chair of the Senate Budget Committee. Privately, however, officials in both parties said the prospects for a major breakthrough were dim, given differences over taxes and spending that have proven compromise-proof throughout the current three-year era of divided government. A few hours after Obama placed his postmidnight signature on legislation ending the long political showdown, Vice President Joe Biden was at the Environmental Protection Agency to greet returning employees. “I hope this is the end of this,” he said, but he acknowledged “There’s no guarantees.” That was a reference to the last-minute legislation that will fund the government only until Jan 15 and give Treasury the
ability to borrow above the $16.7 trillion limit until Feb. 7 or a few weeks longer. At the White House, Obama blended sharp criticism of Republicans with a plea for their cooperation over the remainder of the year and a call for less shrillness on both sides. “Some of the same folks who pushed for the shutdown and threatened default claimed their actions were needed to get America back on track,” he said in remarks in the State Dining Room. “But probably nothing has done more damage to America’s credibility to the world. ... It’s encouraged our enemies. It’s emboldened our competitors. And it’s depressed our friends who look to us for steady leadership,” he said. Obama said the public is “completely fed up with Washington” and he and Congress face hard work in regaining trust. It was a see OBAMA page 9
NORTH CONWAY (AP) — The mother of a teenager missing more than a week made a personal plea to her daughter on Thursday: Stay strong. Zenya Hernandez spoke the same day the FBI announced a $20,000 reward for information leading to the conviction of anybody who may have had a role in 15-year-old Abigail Hernandez’ disappearance. Abigail was last seen leaving Kennett High School at 2:30 p.m. last Wednesday.
Police now say she never made it home. A timeline they prepared shows her sending several text messages between 2:30 and 2:53 p.m. The next signal they got from the phone was at 3:07 p.m. Wednesday at nearby Cranmore Mountain ski resort. She was seen walking the route she often took from school to home, two miles away. “We’re not giving up hope,” said Zenya Hernandez at an afternoon briefing in front of the Conway police department. “We miss you Abby. We truly, truly miss
you. Please stay strong, do not give up, keep on fighting.” Police continue to say they have no evidence to suggest anything suspicious and are treating this like a missing person’s case. Zenya Hernandez appeared stronger than she did on Saturday when her voice broke as she spoke to reporters on her daughter’s 15th birthday. Wearing a T-shirt with “Bring Abby Home” on it, she thanked the community for supporting the family see TEEN page 13

Almost 30 hybrid wolves rescued from remote mountain property in Alexandria By Maggie Cassidy & ernie Kohlsaat VALLEY NEWS
ALEXANDRIA — Almost 30 wolf hybrids, the controversial animals also known as wolf-dogs, were rescued from a remote mountaintop property in Alexandria in a 16-day operation led by the Upper Valley Humane Society with support from at least five local law enforcement agencies and national and regional animal welfare groups. The owner of the animals had been evicted from the property, said Deborah Turcott, executive director of the Upper Valley Humane Society. The humane society responded after receiving requests for assistance from the landowner’s attorney, the former owner of the animals and the Alexandria Police Department, Turcott said. When rescue team members arrived, they found 40 wolf hybrids in about 20 different pens on the property. One found right away was dead, and a second was found dead a few days later. Nine others were humanely euthanized at the site after they were found to be either too ill to be transported or so aggressive they were considered a safety risk. The 29 remaining animals received medical and behavioral evaluations
before being transported down the mountain as part of the operation that concluded last week. Four are now housed at the humane society’s shelter in Enfield, where they are undergoing behavior modification training and are expected to become adoptable. The rest were taken in by the Lockwood Animal Rescue Center, a California-based nonprofit that recently acquired the former Loki Clan Wolf Refuge in Chatham. Those 25 animals were determined to be the ones who “truly need a sanctuary lifestyle,” Turcott said. The 29 animals rescued were estimated to range in age from 4 to 14 years old. “It actually has been a little surreal,” Turcott, who spent nearly the entire 16 days on the mountain, said yesterday afternoon. “We handle quite a few hoarding or rescue situations that number over 50 (animals),” she said, but the nature of the wolf hybrid and the location – a remote property atop Oregon Mountain, slightly northeast of Cardigan Mountain, at the end of a 21∕2-mile washed-out logging road accessible only by four-wheeler or a militaryissue Humvee – made this rescue “logistically the most complex.”

Team of Laconia police officers focussing on curbing incidents of domestic violence BY GAIL OBER
THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — A team of Laconia Police officers have turned their attention to domestic violence and how to curb it by working with community partners and educating victims on the services available to them Office Adam Batstone presented a Problem Oriented Policing (POP) team spoke to the Police Commission yesterday, telling them that this year alone 290 of the city police calls were related in some way to domestic violence. Ninty-eight of those calls resulted in criminal investigations and police made 122 arrests. Batstone acknowledges that since “Sumaria and before that” there has been domestic violence but recently public attitudes and police responses to it have changed. Critical to the way Laconia Police handle domestic violence is using the Lethality Assessment Protocols, which is a series of questions responding officers ask every potential victim. If police thinks a person is being abused, the officer calls a hotline for the victim who gets an opportunity to discus his or her problem. Before the new protocols, police would hand the victim a flyer and hope they sought help on their own. “I have never had an issue with them (the hotline) answering,” Batstone said, noting that he uses the hotline almost every time he responds to a domestic violence dispute. He told the commissioners that New Beginnings, which is a woman’s shelter in Laconia, Catholic Charities, the Family Violence Prevention Council and other advocacy groups work with victims to understand the law and to educate them as to what will happen when their abuser gets arrested.
Concord woman admits fraud to obtain $150k in government benefits CONCORD (AP) — A New Hampshire woman has pleaded guilty to using false information to get more than $250,000 from U.S. government programs. Fifty-four-year-old Betty Dugan of Concord admitted to reporting that her husband was not a member of her household and did not contribute any income when, in fact, he was. His salary ranged from $69,000 to $89,000. U.S. Attorney John Kacavas said Dugan received benefits from the Social Security Administrations’ Supplemental Income program; the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Section 8 Housing program; the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Stamp program; and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Financial Assistance to Needy Families and Aid to Permanently Disabled Persons programs. Dugan is scheduled to be sentenced on Jan. 21, 2014. from preceding page must tighten their belt.” Mitchell said he would not support a “Pay-As-YouThrow” program, insisting the collection of trash and garbage should be a service funded by property taxes. At the same time, he said that the city should continue to promote recycling and acknowledged “we’re not doing enough yet.” Mitchell and Engler will appear together, along with the candidates for City Council, at a forum sponsored by Weirs Action Committee at the Weirs Community Center on Thursday, Oct. 24, beginning at 7 p.m.
Batstone said one of the key things police try to do in the immediate aftermath of a domestic violence call that has resulted in an arrest is to encourage the victim to seek shelter somewhere else for the rest of the night. He said some of the victims will “grab their children and go to the shelter.” “They (the alleged abuser) are released unless it’s so serious they get cash bail,” Batstone said, saying New Beginnings and the hotline advocates explain the difference between a bail order and a restraining order to the victim so he or she can better protect themselves. Lt. Al Lessard said the Laconia Police Relief Family Fund has money to put a victim in a motel if there is no friends or family he or she can turn to for shelter. Batstone also said the POP Domestic Violence team is working with New Beginnings and Catholic
Charities and the Media Arts Program at the Huot Technical Center to produce a series of public service announcements for victims of domestic abuse. Chief Chris Adams said the long-term police goal is the break the cycle of violence. He said it’s not uncommon to have people who grew up in violent homes become abusers as adults. POP Projects are conducted by the city police who set up teams of officers, supervisors, and civilians employees who study one particular police issue in a community and work to mitigate it. Other recent examples of POP projects include under-aged drinking and the safety of Wyatt Park in the city’s south end. Members of the Domestic Violence POP are Capt. Matt Canfield, Sgt. Gary Hubbard, Sgt. Dennis Ashley, Batstone, Officer Michelle Cardinal, Officer Eric Adams, Detective Kevin Butler, Dispatcher Ken Smith, and Administrator Lori Marsh.

Tech’s next big thing won’t be found on fashion runway I never cared much for the tarted-up Burberry. The upscale British clothier sells its wares at prices for which one might reasonably demand a classic style lasting through several monarchies. But that’s just me talking. Burberry is said to have turned its traditionalist label around thanks to fashion innovation. So that’s just me talking. Apple Inc. has hired Burberry CEO Angela Ahrendts to apply her fashion smarts to updating its 400 stores and online shopping experience. On this I feel better equipped to predict success or failure. A number of tech businesses are now getting mixed up with fashion. That’s a dangerous trend, for tech. It threatens to turn tech’s minimalist cool — a user-centered simplicity mastered by Apple’s founding genius, Steve Jobs — into something complicated, not to mention sexist. Apple has enhanced the iPhone’s innards several times, but set an early model on a bar next to the latest and they look fairly alike. Only jerks sniff at someone holding last year’s iPhone. A strange article in The New York Times portrayed the tech foray into fashion as good for tech and a means of empowering women in the maledominated gadget business. At Google Glass, the reporter wrote, “women are leading hardware and business efforts for one of Google’s biggest-ever product gambles.” (Google Glass is a kind of computer on goggles.) The new female hires are advising Google on color and look. Most horrifying is the headline, “Women at Google Looking Past the Glass Ceiling” over a photo of Google founder Sergey Brin slouching in old jeans and rubber sole shoes — surrounded by Diane von Furstenberg and models in metatarsal-killing spikes, chains wrapped around their ankles. Was gender equity ever such? We appreciate that much of tech has a fashion-accessory angle. The cutting-edge tablet and video camera have become the hipster’s conspicuous consumption. And yes, Google sells computer glasses, and
Samsung, computer watches. But true tech elegance rides on complex capabilities under a cover of effortless simplicity. Me talking. Consider the Apple Stores, which Burberry’s ex-CEO is supposed to save from their allegedly outdated look. Most I visit are mob scenes. One is reminded of the Yogi Berra line about an old Italian restaurant: “Nobody goes there anymore. It’s too crowded.” Two things make the Apple Stores beautiful. One is they are a place of tech fantasy. Go there and leave convinced that with a few clicks of the keys you can make an entry for the next Sundance Film Festival. Secondly — and this is even more important — they serve as clinics offering outpatient care for those in the midst of technical meltdown. If you’re an Apple customer with a software problem, hardware problem or don’t-know-which problem, you can limp into an Apple Store knowing that you will skip away with some kind of answer, if not a fix. Apple’s most loyal customers are we who have spent hours on the phone being sent to three continents for help getting a gadget to work. We know that the greatest luxury isn’t fashion. It is service. The Apple Stores have that hip minimalist vibe with a layout as predictable as a Sam’s Club. Also predictable are the employees in colorful tees, there to listen patiently to your tale of confusion and carefully trained never to make the customer feel stupid. Fantasy married to utility was Steve Jobs’ brilliant formula. Don’t mess with that. Computerized glasses in tangerine are not exactly the next tech musthave. They illustrate consumer tech’s problem. It needs to find the next big new thing. The place to look for that is not on a fashion runway but in a geek’s garage. (A member of the Providence Journal editorial board, Froma Harrop writes a nationally syndicated column from that city. She has written for such diverse publications as The New York Times, Harper’s Bazaar and Institutional Investor.)
Wake up! Popularity does not make for good political leadership To The Daily Sun, Right now, the intelligent seniors and veterans are screaming to replace the whole corrupt crowd down there in DC. I say right now, because when the booths open for voting, the displeasure will fade away to “I know that name” and continue to vote for the same old people who know nothing about helping this country, but sure know how to line their pockets with yours and my hard-earned money. Wake up! Popularity does not make for good leadership. So it seems that you do not care about your children or grandkids, so lets leave them a debt
pay it off, because we will not be here to see them burdened with our reckless spending. Spend! Spend! Spend! It’s only money. After all, Washington has printing presses to print more and more and more. Pretty soon, the green money of the good ole US of A, won’t even be worth the paper it is printed on. And, do not speak out about the head honcho because someone will accuse you of racism. A black woman comedian once said it very clearly of him, “If he doesn’t do well, we can blame it on the white part of him”. Bev Buker Gilford
LETTERS Giving poor a middle class income doesn’t make them middle class To The Daily Sun, In order for socialism to prevail, capitalism must fail. The universal cause for the failure of capitalist systems is government. Governments milk the populace and they want to control the populace and eventually they kill the goose that lays the golden egg. (How’s that for a mixed metaphor.) President Obama’s mantra has been, “I been sent to save the middle class.” The middle class is the driving force for a vibrant capitalist society. If you watch what has been done rather than listen to what is said, you will see that the actions of our government have been systematically eliminating the middle class. It isn’t just the persistent taxing of success that stifles the middle class. Perhaps the most dangerous taxation has been the taxation of savings. “We don’t have a wealth tax”, you say. I say we do and it is another name for inflation. If you save a thousand dollars and there is 10 percent inflation, the present value of the money saved is about nine hundred dollars plus whatever paltry interest you have earned. On the other hand, if you borrow one thousand dollars and there is 10 percent inflation you pay back with dollars that are worth only nine hundred dollars. The middle class populace tends to save, but the government always borrows. That way the government steals savings. The next step in destroying the middle class has been “poverty programs”. The rationalization is that if we “give” the poor a middle class income they will become middle class. In fact, what we do with these pro-
grams is create a growing lower class. The truth is that class in not a matter of cash on hand but rather a matter of character. Eventually, the entrepreneurial spirit that typifies the middle class will wither and the lower class will become a malleable voting-block. We will have a nation of elites, the aristocracy (super wealthy and government)and the peasantry. Another method of destroying the middle class is over regulation. The super wealthy can afford armies of lawyers to interpret the regulations and they can afford armies of lobbyists to shape the regulations. You want to open a lemonade stand, there are a forest of regulations and expensive licenses. At one time being a paperboy (pardon me, paper person) was the first step of gainful employment and was a source of savings. The latest attempt of regulation would make the minimum wage apply to virtually all employment, and there is the perennial drive to establish a minimum wage that will support a family. (By the way, raising the minimum wage is the most successful way of cutting off the lower rungs of the employment ladder.) Youth should remain unemployed anyway. The unemployed become slaves to the government. The minimum wage would be about one dollar if you had to have a job before you could vote. Some other days, I will expound on the differences between intelligence and wisdom, and death from bureaucracy. I bet you can hardly wait. Dale P. Eddy Gilford

LETTERS Is this really where the American left wants out country to go?
Developing wind farms won’t create long-term community benefits
To The Daily Sun, Thank you, Barack Hussein Obama... For the way you have divided our country more than any president that I have lived through! How easily you forgot the very platform you ran on. Remember your words, “There is no Red or Blue America, there is only America. You ran as the great “Uniter,” but you are really the great “Divider!” You do your very best to pit Democrats against Republicans and what a great job you have done! Missionaccomplished, you have won! The way you insult American citizens, who dare disagree with you, like when you disrespectfully said, “the Republicans can sit on the back of the bus.” I could not believe your words in your recent speech, when you twice said, “the Republicans are holding a gun to our heads.” This type of speech only incites violence, especially coming from the President of the United States of America! Maybe you can come up with a better way to get your point across! I remember the left jumping all over Sarah Palin, when she drew a circle on a map and put a pin in it! I am equally disturbed at your hateful speech, blaming the “Tea Party” for everything. Are you aware Mr. President, that the “Tea Party” is made up of hundreds of thousands of hardworking American citizens, like myself, who have a constitutional right to voice our concerns and wor-
To The Daily Sun, Numerous studies have been conducted on the positive benefits of developing wind projects in the United States, which include creating jobs, supplying clean energy and economically stimulating local communities. One need only look to Vermont, Maine and Massachusetts to note the many advantages of wind farms. Today, many other wind projects will be announced in rural communities like ours across New England and the Nation. Media announcements will be filled with wonderful words like: green energy, saving future generations, harnessing the power of free wind, etc. If only it were ALL true. I have yet to hear of a community in New England searching for a developer to erect 500-ft. turbines in their community. A few things will come true. First: developers will try and convince you that your community supports them; second: developers will conduct and release bogus studies done by outsourced 3rd parties; third: developers will deforest and blast their way through the mountain ridges; forth: developers will hire many temporary workers (many from out-of-state) for logging and road construction; fifth: developers will install 500-ft. turbines for all to see; sixth: developers will leave; and seven would be crazy to even suggest: developers may return to build more. We witnessed the Groton Wind Farm installation and the challenges they had to overcome — both environmentally and legally. And it’s apparent that the need for “Green Energy” is truly desired in Massachusetts, So why isn’t Massachusetts developing its own state first? Why hasn’t one N.H. Ski Resort made room for turbines? Is Cannon Mountain, Loon Mountain, Waterville, Gunstock, (etc) not windy enough for turbines? Turbines promise to be profitable, right? So, why are N.H. Ski Resorts turned off to turbine development? Addressing the challenges facing
ries about the way our country is being governed? Now, under your IRS, we have to fear that right! How easy it was for you and your administration to condone the disgusting actions of the “Occupy Wall Street Gangs” as they caused disruption and destruction in numerous cities across America? Their movement cost American taxpayers millions of our hardearned tax dollars! You promised great transparency — far from it! Your words are meaningless! Why would you tell the American people (knowing it was not true) that under your health care plan, we could keep our current health care plans and doctors? Only meaningless words and lies come out of your mouth! I believe these facts, along with the many scandals that have plagued your administration, are enough to ask for your resignation. Please Mr. President, do what is best to save our great nation and resign! I suppose I will be seeing the IRS knock on my door, as Dr. Ben Carson did after he disagreed with your health care plan. Is this really, where the left wants America to go? I would hope not, but knowing the censorship that all major mainstream news stations deal in, many American Citizens are kept in the dark! I never thought America would see that day but, it has arrived and can be proven! Linda Dupere Campton
Understand , just saying ‘Thanks for your service’ no longer works To The Daily Sun, Comment made by one of the organizers of the Veteran Memorial March this past Sunday in DC: “The political agenda put forth by a local organizer in Washington DC yesterday (Sunday) was not in alignment with our message. We feel disheartened that some (guess who) would seek to hijack the narrative for political gain. The core principle was and remains about America honoring Veterans in a peaceful and ‘apolitical’ manner. Our love for and dedication remains to our Veterans, regardless of party affiliation or political leanings”. This is what was written on a Facebook page and explained to me by a person who had discussed with organizers that were Veterans. First of all, it should NOT have been called the “Million Veteran March” and second, it should have been pointed out that people OTHER than Veterans were involved in the organization of the march. Most there were there for the right reason. Many were not veterans and there for “other” reasons. It was explained to me that the “Don’t Tread On Me” and “Confederate flags” that he saw were held by “other” than veterans. The two nationally-known figures who spoke of “veterans not being used as pawns” were the ones who most often use veterans as pawns and were passing out small American flags. Those veterans who were there for the right reason were at the memorials — WW2, Korean and Vietnam — standing, walking and remembering with honor as they should have been. Others were looking for media attention and the opportunity to hug and say “thank you for your service” so others could hear, an
My letter in last week paper, in which I stated our two Congressional representatives should NOT receive the veteran vote here in N.H. generated some response both positive and negative. Both beat apathy. IF our reps did choose to stand with veterans and those who serve, the 1 percent they SAY they care about, they would have thought about their vote, USED the paid staff they have and done the right thing on behalf of the veterans of N.H. They along with our senators should understand by now that “Thank You For Your Service” no longer works. Faith, Trust, Truth, Responsibility and Accountability are what makes the difference. When it comes to Veterans and the 1 percent, “apolitical” actually means something! Oh yes, by the way, American soldier, Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, is’STILL being held POW in Afghanistan. We’re to believe everything that can be done, is being done. Really? Faith, Trust, Truth, Responsibility and Accountability no longer an issue? Veterans like myself AND Mr. Armstrong (buddy, Russ from Peterborough) are NOT going to carry your banner just because of your party name. Like he stated, “we agree on most issues”, I think the difference might be, Mr. Armstrong served in the Air Force so at times his view would be “clouded”. Having been a Navy Corpsman who served with the Marines, I had more training on just cleaning up the mess: “Get in, get out.” Or, in the case of DC, discussing OUR N.H. reps: “Get it done or get the hell out!” Hooorahhh! Bob Jones
our local wind developers and our community begins with taking a look at the people behind these projects. A half a billion dollars is being spent in our community. My question is how much of this will stay in our community? Not much when you factor in their decommissioning strategy. Almost all of the money leaves our community, our state and our country. Let me explain: many temporary out-of-state workers will flock here from three states for a 4-6 month time frame. None will stay, none will buy a house and none will send their children to our schools or invest in our community. Experienced and knowledgeable workers will be brought in because they are fully trained to complete the job in a certain time frame. Cheap labor will also be brought in. Simply put — local workers will not be considered for many of these jobs because it’s all about deadlines and money. Hats off to you — if you’re a local company involved in the deforestation process, the road building process or the logging process, but you too know there’s no room for training. It’s truly a race to finish on-time and incentives are put in place to guarantee that. So it’s fair to say that land owners will prosper and so will a hand full of logging and trucking companies in the state. Developing wind farms will not create long-term benefits for our community. Are other turbine communities overflowing with jobs, wealth, and incremental business?. I think not. If it they were prospering — developers would not be fronting them money... developers know their development plan will harm you...that’s why they come bearing gifts. Wake up. Developers are here to take profits not give them away. They have a playbook that they’ve used on every community before us — and it’s a playbook full of broken promises. Ray Cunningham Bridgewater

Man arraigned in connection with Meredith heroin death LACONIA — A former Meredith man was arraigned in Belknap County Superior Court yesterday for allegedly selling the heroin that killed a Moultonborough man in May. Andrew Currier, 50, now of Messer Street in Laconia, was ordered held on $2,500 cash bail by Belknap County Superior Court Judge James O’Neill, which he posted. According to arrest warrant affidavits obtained through the 4th Circuit Court, Laconia Division — the court where Currier initially appeared after being charged, Currier sold “a bump” of heroin to 31-year-old Jason Dostie on May 29. Dostie was found dead in the back of his father’s truck in his father’s Moultonborough driveway. Police determined he died while he was at 7 Enterprise Court in Meredith. Toxicology results from the State Crime Lab later indicated Dostie died of a heroin overdose.
Affidavit’s said Detective Cpl. John Eicchorn of the Meredith Police used text messages, interviews with Dostie’s friends and co-workers to create a time line that led them to determine Dostie sent text messages to Currier beginning that morning saying he wanted to buy some heroin. Evidence collected indicates Currier allegedly dropped off a bag of heroin for Dostie by leaving it in his vehicle. The N.H. Chief Medical Examiner’s Office determined the cause of Dostie’s death was “acute heroin intoxication” according to the affidavit. Currier turned himself into police and had been free on $25,000 personal recognizance bail. He was indicted by a Belknap County Grand Jury last week. Dostie’s death is the fifth confirmed heroin death in the area this year. To date, two people have died in Laconia and two people have died in Gilford from heroin overdoses.
Rochester reporter charged with hiding camera in bathroom ROCHESTER (AP) — A newspaper reporter was charged Thursday with hiding a camera in a women’s bathroom at the building where he worked. Rochester police said Conor Makem, 45, of Dover was charged with a felony count of falsifying evidence and 12 misdemeanor counts of invasion of privacy. A woman discovered the camera on Oct. 7 on the second floor of Merchants’ Plaza building, where several businesses are located. She showed it to Makem, who told her it wasn’t a camera and then threw it away before police could examine it, police said. Police later took his laptop, work computer and cell phone.
Makem, who worked part time for the Rochester Times, was held on $10,000 bail and is due back in court Friday. It could not immediately be learned if he had a lawyer. Rodney Doherty, executive editor of Foster’s Daily Democrat, which also publishes the Rochester Times, said the paper will continue to cooperate with police. Makem was fired. “We’re extremely disappointed in the situation,” Doherty said. “It’s difficult to understand. We, as you know, in the news business, we read and hear all the time that neighbors and friends are shocked at what went on. We’ll just wait and see. There’s still a lot of investigation to do.”
WATER from page one not support a sprinkler system, which the building and fire codes require of a restaurant. Furthermore, he explained that extending the larger line to the historic church building would provide capacity to expand water service to other properties in the vicinity, particularly the railroad station. On behalf of the Downtown TIF Advisory Board, Kevin Dunleavy, director of Parks and Recreation, explained that once the church building is returned to the tax rolls, the TIF fund will begin recovering its investments in property tax revenue. Above all, he said that facilitating the conversion of the property was in keeping with the mission of the TIF District to encourage private investment and economic development in the center of the city. Kennedy discussed his plans for the building with the city’s Technical Review Committee last week and is scheduled to seek the approval of the Planning Board next month. Planning Director Shanna Saunders said that “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. The restaurant will be the Kennedys’ second, both housed in churches. The Holy Grail Restaurant and Pub in 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. NOTE: The City Council authorized City Manager Scott Myersto purchase another 300 recycling toters to sell to residents at a discounted price. Myers said that the Department of Public Works (DPW) sold the last of the initial batch of 1,000 64-gallon toters in August and had a list of some 75 residents wishing to buy if the offer was renewed. He said that the price of the toters has risen from $45 to $55, but suggesting offering them for sale with the same $20 discount. The net cost to the city of $6,000, Myers said could be drawn from the DPW’s operating budget without issue.
SURPLUS from page one the surplus — an overage in the special education budget, health insurance, and, most importantly, energy savings. Last year, he said, the school district took some of the previous years surplus and replaced the boilers at the Gilford High School. He said the district had thought they could get a few more years out of it but at the end of last year realized it was cracked. “That alone saved us hundreds of thousands of dollars,” Hemingway said. He said the school district budgets for the maximum allowable increase in health insurance every year — a figure guaranteed to them by their insurance underwriter — but last year the actual rates were lower than what was budgeted. Because of the budgeting schedule, the district doesn’t typically have the exact rate of increase until well after the budget has been prepared and accepted by the voters. Hemingway said they also budgeted more for heating oil and credited the school district’s participation in a loyal oil-buying consortium that negotiates the best possible price for its oil. As for the 2014-2015 budget, Hemingway said he and Business Administrator Scott Isabelle are paring down the individual school requests and will have a total draft budget available for the School Board
annual budget workshop session on October 28. Hemingway said replacing the telephone system is the major capital improvement project the school district needs for 2014-2015. He said the existing system is no longer supported by the available software and there is no way to continually service it. He said the district has a medium range capital goal of repaving all of the parking lots. Both of those capital requests are part of the town’s Capital Improvement Project plan. Allen said she is equally confident that the school administration will present them with a reasonable annual budget for the next school year. She said there the school district is negotiating a new collective bargaining agreement with the teachers’ union they hope to bring to voters at the annual district (SB-2) Deliberative Session. She said members will likely get the draft budget on October 25 and will have the weekend to digest it. The budget workshop is scheduled for 5 p.m. on October 28. The next School Board meeting is November 4 and the School District is scheduled to present its 20132014 annual budget request to the Budget Committee on December 5 at 6:30 p.m. at the Town Hall meeting room.
GUNSTOCK from page one completed within two hours. She provided a list of names of the candidates but said she was not certain that she has the authority to release background information provided in their application letters and resumes until members of the convention received them. Worsman deferred the decision on releasing them to Belknap County Administrator Debra Shackett, who said that the applications were part of the public record and released the information. There are two vacancies on the five-member commission, which was established in 1959 to oversee the operations of the county-owned Gunstock Recreation Area in Gilford and whose members serve fiveyear terms. Open now is the five-year term of Chuck Lowth of Meredith, who has served on the commission for 15 years, and a two-year term to complete the commitment of Christine Blackstone of Alton, who recently resigned. Lowth, a project manager consultant who has a long background in industrial and commercial construction, says that he would like to be considered for the two-year term and see the commission continue to operate as a cohesive group. Other applicants are: — Atty. Philip Brouillard of Gilford, who served 18 years as a member of the Board of Fire Engineers in Gilford and was a volunteer member of the Gunstock Ski Patrol for 26 years and has developed residential, retail and rental properties. — Chris McDonough of Gilford, owner and chief financial officer of Fratello’s and Homestead restaurants and a director of both the Gunstock Ski Club and the New Hampshire Lodging & Restaurant Association. — Stephan Nix of Gilford, a practicing attorney and land surveyor who has been a member of the Gilford ZBA and Land Conservation Task Force and has been skiing at Gunstock since he was a young child in the 1960s. — David Nielsen of Gilmanton, former Belmont Police Chief and the official caretaker of the Old Man of the Mountain and president of the Old Man of the Mountain Museum and Preservation Association. — Doug Lambert of Gilford, founder and production and sales manager of DGF Industrial Innovations Group, a former member of the Gilford Municipal Budget Committee and avid user of Gunstock’s facilities year-round. — Alan Glassman of Barnstead, a board member of the Gunstock Munition Historic Preservation Society who has an information technology background in the financial services industry and is chairman of the Belknap County Republican Committee. — John Cameron of Gilford, an attorney with a solo practice who is Gilford School District moderator. A certified mediator, he held management positions with Digital Equipment Corporation and Nashua Corporation before entering the field of law. — Ruth Larson of Alton, a retired attorney who worked for CIGNA Insurance in New Jersey before establishing her own private practice in Princeton, New Jersey. She retired in 2010 and moved to Alton and has resumed downhill skiing after many years off from the slopes. — Edward Rushbrook of Gilford, a self-employed civil engineer who over the past 35 years has worked as project manager for wastewater projects in many New Hampshire communities and for 20 years has worked with Jiminy Peak Ski Area in Hancock, Mass., — Michael Gillepsie, a season pass holder at Gunstock who is executive vice president and chief revenue officer of ZGS Communications, based in Arlington,Va., which operates 12 television stations and 3 radio stations. Gillespie submitted a letter before the deadline but no resume was received until this Thursday. Under the state law that established the commission, no more than two members of the board may reside in the same Belknap County municipality. Laconia is currently the only such municipality currently represented by more than one — Sean Sullivan and Bob Durfee. John Morgenstern of Gilford is the fifth member of the current board.

OBAMA from page 2 reference to public opinion polls that show the nation in a sour mood — though more inclined to blame Republicans than the president and his party for the first partial government shutdown caused by politics in 17 years. Hoping to jump-start his own stalled agenda, Obama urged lawmakers to concentrate on three items in the coming weeks: a balanced plan to reduce long-term deficits, legislation to overhaul the immigration system and passage of a farm bill. Polling aside, Obama’s party emerged from the threeweek showdown in Congress united. All Democrats in Congress supported the legislation that passed Wednesday night to fund the government and raise the debt limit. Not so of the Republicans. Eighteen GOP members in the Senate and 144 in the House opposed the legislation, while 27 in the Senate and 87 in the House supported it. The fault line separated tea party adherents from the balance of the rank and file. And there were clear signs the split was enduring, though not widening. In Mississippi, where GOP Sen. Thad Cochran has not yet announced if he will seek a new term in 2014, the Club for Growth and Senate Conservatives

Fund were not waiting to find out. They endorsed a potential rival, Republican state Sen. Chris McDaniel, as he announced his candidacy. The groups are among several that have played an increasingly active role in Republican primary elections in recent years, several times supporting tea partyaligned challengers. In some cases — Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, for one — they went on to victory in the fall. In more, they lost seemingly winnable races to Democrats. One survivor of such a challenge, Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, said during the day that the Heritage Foundation is in danger of losing its clout as a reliable conservative think tank because of the actions of its political arm, Heritage Action. In an interview on MSNBC, he said, “There’s a real question in the minds of many Republicans now. ... Is Heritage going to go so political that it really doesn’t amount to anything anymore?” Heritage Action played an influential role in the two-week political showdown. In the days leading to the impasse, it was a strong backer of the campaign to demand that “Obamacare” be defunded in exchange for Republican approval of funding for the government.

NEW YORK (AP) — The stock market hit an alltime high Thursday as investors put the government shutdown and debt ceiling crisis behind them and focused on corporate earnings. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index rose 11.61 points, or 0.7 percent, to close at 1,733.15 — a record close. The market rose throughout the day as investors got back to focusing on corporate earnings and economic data. American Express and Verizon rose the most in the Dow Jones industrial average after reporting earnings that beat expectations from financial analysts. The Dow ended the day down two points, or 0.01 percent, to 15,371.65. The index of 30 big U.S. companies was held back by declines in IBM, Goldman Sachs and UnitedHealth. IBM’s third-quarter revenue fell and missed Wall Street’s forecast by more than $1 billion. The stock closed down $11.90, or 6 percent, to $174.80. Earlier, it had touched its lowest level of the past year — $172.57 Goldman Sachs also weighed down the index. The investment bank’s revenue fell sharply as trading in bonds and other securities slowed. Goldman fell $3.93, or 2.4 percent, to $158.32. The focus on earnings is a change of pace for Wall Street, which had been absorbed in Washington’s
political drama over the last month. Now that the U.S. has avoided the possibility of default, at least for a few months, earnings news is expected to dominate trading for the next couple weeks. So far, only 79 companies in the S&P 500 have reported third-quarter results, according to S&P Capital IQ. Analysts expect earnings at those companies to increase 3.3 percent over the same period a year ago. “I don’t think we can completely close the door on the debt ceiling chapter just yet, but we can get back to the stuff that really matters,” said Jonathan Corpina, who manages trading on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange for Meridian Equity Partners. Other indexes also posted big gains. The Nasdaq composite closed up 23.71 points, or 0.6 percent, to 3,863.15. The Russell 2000 index, which is made up of primarily smaller, riskier companies, also hit an alltime high. It closed up 9.85 points, or 0.9 percent, to 1,102.27 and has risen nearly 30 percent this year. Market analysts think the 16-day partial shutdown of the government caused billions of dollars of damage to the economy. Government employees were furloughed, contracts were delayed, and tourism declined at national parks.

SPORTS Inter-Lakes earns tough volleyball win over Belmont The Inter-Lakes High School varsity volleyball team improved to 10-3 on Wednesday night with a 3-1 victory over Belmont. Set scores were 25-16, 28-26, 25-27, 25-19. The Lakers were led by their senior captains Jordan Donohue (23 kills, 11 blocks, 10 digs) and Lydia Swedberg (18 digs, 17 service points). Hayley Roth registered 32 assists, eight points and three kills in the win. Also contributing were Victoria Burns (11 digs, nine points) and Jessica Schofield (7 kills, 5 blocks). For Belmont, Megan Bailey recorded two aces, one kill, four digs, two blocks and 34 assists. Jessie Bergeron tallied three aces and 20 digs, Bridget Annis added eight kills and three blocks, Louisa Bergeron had 11 kills and two blocks and Alyssa Woods recorded an ace and eight kills. Belmont coach Melissa Miner said it was a tough loss for Belmont. “We were excited to go up against Inter Lakes again, we knew this was going to be a tough match since it took us five sets the last time. We’ve been working hard in practice on hitting and blocking and it showed tonight. We definitely were much stronger on offense this time, but unfortunately our serving errors cost us the match.”
LHS football team in must-win situation By Tim marTin
FOR THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
The Laconia High School football team (2-4) was shutout 37-0 on Saturday in Plymouth. Laconia only managed 115 yards of offense as the Bobcats (6-0) remained undefeated on the season. The Bobcats, led by senior quarterback Colin Sullivan and Jared Kuehl, controlled the tempo from the opening whistle. Kuehl had two scores, one receiving and the other on the ground, while Sullivan threw for two and ran for another.
Laconia will host Lebanon (2-4) tonight at Bank of New Hampshire Stadium. The Sachems are in a must win situation if they want to keep their hopes alive of playing in NHIAA’s Division II playoff tournament. Boys’ soccer The soccer team improved to 10-4 this week after splitting a pair of games in Division III play. The win came when Laconia traveled to Tilton to take on Winnisquam (2-10-1).

LMS boys’ B soccer team takes 4-0 win over Barnstead On Wednesday the Laconia Middle School boys’ B soccer team played a home game against Barnstead and won 4-0. Scoring for the game was provided by striker Noah McLeod, fullback Cole Reid, left forward Kyle Leighton assisted by Colby Reid, and right forward Stefan Sevegjarto. The Barnstead goalkeeper made incredible saves while handling 18 shots on goal throughout the game.
Sant Bani soccer drops to .500 The Sant Bani soccer team lost a heartbreaker at home on Wednesday to the Proctor JV1 team 6-4. Ahead 4-1 halfway through the second half, thanks to three goals by senior co-captain Harrison Evans, some great goalkeeping again by Ander Trevino Aizpurua and an unassisted goal by junior Mohamed Sapry, things suddenly fell apart for the now 4-4 see SANT BANI next page

Playing their last home game of the season, the U5 Laconia Chiefs hosted the Hudson Bears this past Sunday. The Chiefs are in the midst of the playoff hunt and needed a win to keep their hopes alive. They received the opening kickoff and started their march down the field. Utilizing both sides of the field, tailback Jackson Reulke let the crowd know what kind of day it was going to be. He followed his fullback Phil Nichols right up the gut for a 35 yard scamper. He also tacked on the extra point to give his team an early 7-0 lead. The defense came out just as fired up and shut down the Bears straight “T” offense. Linebackers Nolen Perrino and Nichols kept the Hudson run game to little or no gains with every carry. When the offense got the ball back, it SANT BANI from preceding page Sant Bani squad. Five unanswered Proctor goals within a 20 minute span turned what appeared to be an upset win into disbelief. Sant Bani coach Todd Schongalla said after the game, “For some reason, we fell apart defensively. Fatigue made it hard for us to get the ball out of our own end. We need to do a better job of clearing the ball and maintaining possession.” The team hopes to return to a winning record on Saturday, as they travel to Bethlehem and visit the White Mountain School. LHS from preceding page the winning streak to seven with a 5-2 win. Laconia could not continue their winning ways in Gilford (10-2-1) on Wednesday afternoon when they fell 5-1. The boys are away on Tuesday when they travel to Belmont (6-6-1). Girls’ soccer The girls’ team battled to a scoreless tie last Thursday when they hosted Division III powerhouse Belmont (112-1). The Sachems would continue the scoring drought losing 1-0 to Kingswood on Tuesday as the Knights notched their first win of the season to improve to 1-12. The Sachems host Inter-Lakes (9-4) today at Robbie Mills Field. Laconia will try to avenge the 1-0 loss to the Knights when Kingswood comes to town on Tuesday. Field hockey
13-0 halftime lead. The second half opened up with more stifling defense by the youngsters from Laconia. D tackles Garrett Mango and Anthony Coote continuously smashed through the Bear’s offensive line and stopped their backs in the backfield. The Chief’s offense took over where they left off and pushed the ball down the field. QB Logan Dee made a great fake to his tailback and was able to boot it around the left end for a nice 18 yard touchdown run. Laconia recovered a muffed kick return attempt by Hudson and ate up over 8 minutes driving the ball down the field. Reulke finished off his day with a walk-in 5 yard touchdown and then threw the halfback toss to Perrino to put the nail in the Hudson coffin, 26-0. The Chiefs have one away game at Goffstown left and could finish as high as third with another victory.
Visiting Hebron Academy defeats Tilton School 5-1 Tilton School’s varsity boys’ soccer team suffered a 5-1 loss to Hebron Academy on Wednesday. Tilton’s Dikran Arshagouni netted the only goal for the hosts. Keeper Griffin Sperry and senior defender Jeremy Choroszy also played well for the Rams. The Sachems went 1-1 on the week to improve to 8-5 on the season. The week started Friday night when they hosted undefeated Gilford (11-0-2), where the girls fell 2-1. On Tuesday the Sachems traveled to Bethlehem where they would shutout Profile School (1-12) 2-0. The Sachems finished the regular season last night hosting 6-7 Somersworth.

WOLVES from page 3 departments and agencies . . . who came together to provide a powerful alternative to what could have been a public safety or animal welfare catastrophe, and the towns surrounding Alexandria, such as mine, recognized that if left unattended, several communities would eventually be impacted.” The humane society has plans in place for different rescue scenarios, but a mountaintop wolf-hybrid rescue is different, Turcott said, than 50 cats being hoarded in an apartment. Turcott called her time with the animals “my own Dances With Wolves.” “It was definitely the most unique experience that I’ve had in this part of my career,” she said. “It’s not often that you get to sit face to face with a dog that’s probably very high-content wolf and try to understand what should come next for them.” “It’s very interesting to evaluate the behavior of an animal that looks like a dog, acts like a dog, but also has the pack mentality of a wolf,” she added later. “You’re not only watching the one dog you’re trying to work with at that moment, but you’re also trying to discern what’s going on with the entire pack. That part was fascinating.” A team of eight from the humane society, along with at least eight others from local law enforcement agencies, loaded the wolf-dogs into crates, performed medical evaluations and brought them down by Humvee two at a time. “It was taxing on our organization, as well as on municipal resources,”
Turcott said. Turcott said the New Hampshire Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals; New Hampshire Department of Agriculture, Food and Markets; the Humane Society of the United States; the ASPCA; and the Global Foundation of Animal Sanctuaries all helped in the effort to find new locations for the animals. “It was an incredible partnership,” said Turcott, who is president of the New Hampshire Federation of Humane Organizations and was able to tap into that network for support. “I was able to get all of those great minds on the phone,” she said. Turcott said humane society officials plan to meet with lawmakers to help improve the laws that govern wolf hybrids. As it stands now, the animals live in a legislative “no man’s land,” Turcott said. They are not domesticated like dogs and are therefore not “traditionally adoptable,” but they are not wildlife, so they are not handled by fish and game officials. “There’s no governing agency,” she said. “No one is responsible for licensing or for the sanctuaries themselves.” The former owner was cooperative in seeking assistance once evicted, Turcott said. Because of New Hampshire’s vague legislation, she said, “I believe there are very well-intentioned people who collect animals who otherwise may have nowhere else to be, and sometimes it gets out of hand. . . . By the time eviction was served, he realized he needed help.”
TEXTING from page 2 while driving to pick up Chinese food in December 2010 and did not realize his car had veered across two lanes and into oncoming traffic. He struck a couple’s car, causing traumatic brain injury to their teenage son. Sending a text message while driving has been against the law in New Hampshire since January 2010. It is a motor vehicle violation punishable by a $100 fine. Reading a text while driving is not explicitly against the law in the state. “In a case like this, where he doesn’t actually send a text, there seems to be no concrete barrier on how long it takes for you to look at a phone before it’s illegal and endangers someone,” said Austin Mahew, a junior at Concord High School. “One second’s a lot different than 10 seconds.” Belleville’s lawyer argued Thursday that taking his eyes off the road for the time it took to read the message did not rise to the level of felony recklessness. A prosecutor countered that he was so engrossed in reading the text that he failed to see three cars
coming at him. The Supreme Court held the first of its “On the Road” series at St. Anselm College in 2002. It has since held court at a total of four colleges and 11 high schools, including Thursday’s session in Concord, attended by students from about a half dozen schools. Barth said the series enables teachers to brief students on the issues and law behind the cases they will hear so they can be more engaged in the legal specific arguments and the legal system in general. The students also heard arguments in a second case on whether a trial judge erred by letting a prosecutor refer to a “billy club” a person charged with assault had once owned. After both cases, the five justices came back to the stage in office attire and spoke with students about their careers and answered questions that did not relate to cases before the court. Students asked about whether they’ve encountered cases that conflict with their ideals, how they prepare for oral arguments and how justices are chosen, among other topics.

Nursing home residents take ride on MS Mt. Washington On a beautiful fall day in October some 20 residents of Belknap County Nursing Home enjoyed an outing on the MS Mount Washington, courtesy of Merrill Fay, owner of Fay’s Boat Yard. Merill Fay is an active member of the community and one of the “Faces of Laconia”, a collection of local citizens who have made a significant contribution to the community.. Fay learned that residents would like to enjoy a ride on the Big Lake and agreed to sponsor the trip. Fay’s donation covered the cost for 20 residents and 6 staff members to enjoy a two hour cruise. Belknap County Nursing Home is a 94 bed facility with a caring staff. In an ongoing effort to provide the best activities and quality of life for their residents the Activities Department at the Nursing Home schedules as many outings as possible. Over the years this has included picnics, ball games, and shopping as well as trips to the ocean, the Currier Art Museum in Manchester and the Science Center in Holderness. (Courtesy photo)
Franklin VNA & Hospice offers grief support group FRANKLIN — Franklin VNA & Hospice will be hosting a grief support group on six consecutive Mondays, from October 21 through November 25. The purpose of this group is to offer grieving individuals a caring environment in which to discuss their loss and sorrow among people who can empathize with their emotions. The sessions will be facilitated by Rev. Scott Secrest, Hospice Chaplain, Rev. Tobias Nyatsambo, Hospice Chaplain and Rebecca Herr, Hospice Volunteer. It is the goal of Franklin VNA’s grief support group to help those experiencing grief from the loss of a loved one to understand their feelings and to work through them in a safe and supportive environment. “One of the most important factors in healing from loss is the support of other people. Even people who
are usually reticent about their emotions need to share them when grieving”, said Rev. Nyatsambo. A grief support group, Rev. Secrest added, “can help the bereaved share their grief and loss, which makes the burden easier to carry. People who are grieving the loss of a loved one can feel very alone and isolated. Sharing their sorrow with others who have experienced a similar loss can help. A grief support group provides a safe place for people to face their feelings and express them, knowing that the other people in the group will listen and understand because they, too, are struggling with similar emotions. “ The six sessions will be take place from 4:30-6 p.m. and will be at the VNA office on 75 Chestnut St, Franklin. Pre-registration is required; to register, or for more information, call Nancy at 934-3454.

Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist to speak at PSU on Thursday about the destruction of America’s middle class
PLYMOUTH — Plymouth State University hosts Hedrick Smith, Pulitzer prize-winning author of Who Stole the American Dream?, on October 24. Smith will be speaking before students and faculty from 11-12:30 p.m. and again from 12:30-2 p.m. in Boyd 144. His book is an eye-opening account of how, over the past four decades, the American Dream has been dismantled and we became two Americas. Smith documents the transfer of $6 trillion in middle-class wealth from home-owners to banks even before the housing boom went bust, and how the U.S. policy tilt favoring the rich is stunting America’s economic growth. Smith reveals how pivotal laws and policies were altered while the public wasn’t looking, how Congress often ignores public opinion, why moderate politicians got shoved to the sidelines, and how Wall Street often wins politically by hiring over 1,400 former government officials as lobbyists. Smith offers ideas for restoring America’s great promise and reclaiming the American Dream. Smith will be speaking to students at 11 a.m. and again at 12:30 p.m. There are some seats available to the public. If interested, register at go.plymouth. edu/HedrickSmith Smith is a Pulitzer Prize-winning former New York Times reporter and editor and Emmy awardwinning television producer/correspondent who is one of America’s most distinguished journalists. In 26 years with The New York Times, Mr. Smith was a member of the Pulitzer Prize-winning team that produced the Pentagon Papers series. In 1974, he won the Pulitzer Prize for International Reporting from Russia and Eastern Europe.

Franklin hosting Lights On Afterschool event on Wednesday afternoon
FRANKLIN — The 14th annual Lights On Afterschool will be the largest nationwide rally for afterschool ever held, and will take place on Wednesday, October 23, from 4-6 p.m. at the Bessie Rowell Community Center, located at 12 Rowell Drive in Franklin. “We are delighted to join these rallies, which are sending a powerful message about the urgent need for more afterschool programs,” said Krystal Alpers. “Afterschool programs do so much for our children, our families and our communities. They help keep kids physically fit, offer mentoring from local community leaders and help improve student attendance and work habits during the regular school day. With Lights On Afterschool, Americans are saying they want the lights on after school for our kids.” Afterschool Alliance Executive Director Jodi Grant welcomed the City of Franklin’s Parks and Recreation
Department’s support. “We’re grateful for all our Lights On Afterschool partners, and for the work they do on behalf of afterschool programs and the kids who attend them, Their support makes the message of Lights On Afterschool all the more compelling. We share their conviction that afterschool programs are essential because they inspire children to learn, keep them safe, and help working families.” Funding for afterschool programs has not kept up with demand, and more than 15 million children are alone and unsupervised after the school days ends. Lights On Afterschool was launched in October 2000 with celebrations in more than 1,200 communities nationwide. The event grew in 2001 to more than 3,600 events, and more than 7,500 in 2008. For more information contact Krystal at 603-934-2118 or email Kalpers@ franklinnh.org.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Dear Annie: There is a young couple in our church who spend the entire mass making out. They kiss, tickle, rub and caress each other every minute of the service. It’s very distracting. It is also distracting to see other people in church snickering and rolling their eyes at them. I am praying that these two read your column and have a PDA wake-up call. -- Switching Masses Dear Switching: It is not uncommon for newly enamored couples to have difficulty keeping their hands off of each other. They think others will see it as proof of their love, when in actuality, it is a sign of immaturity. Finding another mass is one option. The other is informing the priest, who should counsel the couple about proper decorum in a place of worship. Dear Annie: I’ve been married for 32 years, and my wife has been both verbally and physically abusive to me all that time. She uses vulgar language, is sarcastic and likes to hit and punch me. I almost filed for divorce after five years, hoping it would make her change, but it didn’t work. She has anger, stress, weight, sleep and back problems and does nothing about them. She’s crabby all of the time. How do I tell her in a nice way that we will never survive under the same roof unless she makes progress on these problems? -- Lost in Wisconsin Dear Lost: Your wife doesn’t believe you will leave her. You’ve tolerated 32 years of verbal and physical abuse, and quite logically, she expects you to stick around for more. Like many abused spouses, you believe you can make things better, but that requires her cooperation. Please contact the Domestic Abuse Helpline for Men and Women (dahmw.org) at 1-888-7HELPLINE. Dear Annie: I am the daughter-in-law mentioned in the letter from “Disappointed Parents,” who said I retreated to the bedroom while my mother-in-law handled the movers. From
their letter, I can understand why you think I might be a problem. Yes, they did travel a long distance to help us with our move, and it was greatly appreciated. I kept thanking them and continuously asked whether they were OK and whether they needed anything. I was told over and over that they were just fine. The day the movers arrived, my husband and I agreed that he would deal with them and I would keep our small children out of the way in our bedroom. He didn’t tell me that he and his father left to go to the bank, leaving his stepmother to handle the movers. My husband and I both slept until noon that day, but they only castigated me for being “lazy.” They didn’t mention that I was up until 4 a.m. unpacking. They were bothered that I didn’t have breakfast ready for them, even though the kitchen wasn’t unpacked. They expected to be entertained. When they decided to leave in a huff, I was bathing our kids. They didn’t even lock the front door behind them. After they left, I received nasty emails saying how rude I was and that I need to apologize. Each one included a laundry list of the ways I am a terrible daughter-in-law and don’t know my place. I didn’t send birthday and Christmas greetings because my husband said he wasn’t interested in doing so. His father has a history of anger issues and has alienated every other family member. My last email stated that I was cutting off contact. I am too busy raising my children to raise my in-laws. They smile to your face while making lists of slights behind your back. I don’t want my kids around such behavior. Thank you for reading my side of the events. -- Shell-Shocked Daughter-in-Law Dear Shell-Shocked: Thanks for providing it. Many readers came to your defense, saying that a new mother who had just moved had her hands full and deserved more consideration. We agree.

Get Fuzzy
By Holiday Mathis
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). A practical mood prevails. You’ll sort through a mishmash of options until you land on something useful. Avoid jumping to conclusions or accepting new ideas as true before they have been proved to you. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You don’t realize just how mesmerizing your spontaneity is to people who are used to operating in a highly controlled environment. Hopefully you won’t mind if they try to make a study of you! PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). This day will refresh your sense of wonder. The last thing you think will happen is the first thing that does. This is just what you need to get your creative juices flowing again. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Oct. 18). There’s little you can do to dissuade good fortune from smiling on you in the next 10 weeks. Use your increased power and presence to forward an agenda that will benefit you and your family. You’ll sign a deal in November. December brings a natural close to old business and an opportunity for change. Leo and Cancer people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 40, 44, 32, 19 and 50.
by Chad Carpenter
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’ll be in a position to show what makes you different from the others. That’s why you’ll avoid the kind of environment that everyone else would choose. You’ll shine elsewhere and be memorable. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Social decisions will affect the outcome of your day. You prefer to be around mild-mannered types, though you can’t deny a strange fascination with people who walk the line of social acceptability. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). If you’re not careful, disorganized efforts will needlessly complicate your life. Take the time to figure out exactly what you’re going to do. It’s the work you do to prepare for an event that will make it a success. CANCER (June 22-July 22). A restriction will be lifted. This is what you’ve been waiting for: the green light telling you to turn your ideas into action. Your true friends want you to succeed, and they will cheer you on. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). With all that’s going on in today’s swirl, simple communication is better. You’re drawn to those who can tell you what they are about in a sentence or two, and you’ll do the same. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You could still win, but you have to put on your game face and be strategic. Also, you don’t need to know everything. Just don’t let them know quite yet where the holes in your knowledge might be. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). When your eloquent manner doesn’t quite get the point across, you may resort to being uncharacteristically bold or blunt. Whatever works. You’re more concerned with being effective than with being perfect. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your casual mindset doesn’t go with another person’s formal plans. Take the reins. Your suggestions will be better, and you’ll sell them by being modestly amenable to anything. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Today feels like a release from the intense energy that’s been building up over the course of the week. You’ll be in the mood to get a little wild, but not too crazy.

Yesterday’s Answer
Page 22 — THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Friday, October 18, 2013
––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Friday, Oct. 18, the 291st day of 2013. There are 74 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Oct. 18, 1962, James D. Watson, Francis Crick and Maurice Wilkins were honored with the Nobel Prize for Medicine and Physiology for determining the double-helix molecular structure of DNA. On this date: In 1685, King Louis XIV signed the Edict of Fontainebleau, revoking the Edict of Nantes that had established legal toleration of France’s Protestant population, the Huguenots. In 1812, during the War of 1812, the British ship HMS Frolic was captured off the Virginia coast by the crew of the USS Wasp, which was in turn captured by the HMS Poictiers. In 1867, the United States took formal possession of Alaska from Russia. In 1892, the first long-distance telephone line between New York and Chicago was officially opened (it could only handle one call at a time). In 1912, black boxer Jack Johnson was arrested in Chicago, accused of violating the Mann Act because of his relationship with his white girlfriend, Lucille Cameron. (The case collapsed when Cameron refused to cooperate, but Johnson was later re-arrested and convicted on the testimony of a former mistress, Belle Schreiber.) In 1922, the British Broadcasting Co., Ltd. was founded. In 1931, inventor Thomas Alva Edison died in West Orange, N.J., at age 84. In 1961, the movie musical “West Side Story,” starring Natalie Wood and Richard Beymer, premiered in New York, the film’s setting. In 1969, the federal gov. banned artificial sweeteners known as cyclamates because of evidence they caused cancer in laboratory rats. In 1971, the Knapp Commission began public hearings into allegations of corruption in the New York City police department (the witnesses included Frank Serpico). In 1972, Congress passed the Clean Water Act, overriding President Richard Nixon’s veto. In 1977, West German commandos stormed a hijacked Lufthansa jetliner on the ground in Mogadishu, Somalia, freeing all 86 hostages and killing three of the four hijackers. In 1982, former first lady Bess Truman died at her home in Independence, Mo., at age 97. In 2001, CBS News announced that an employee in anchorman Dan Rather’s office had tested positive for skin anthrax. Four disciples of Osama bin Laden were sentenced in New York to life without parole for their roles in the deadly 1998 bombings of two U.S. embassies in Africa. Ten years ago: Pope John Paul II celebrated a Mass at the Vatican marking the 20th anniversary of his election to the papacy. Five years ago: President George W. Bush, speaking at Camp David, said he would host an international summit in response to the global financial crisis. One year ago: In a case that would go to the Supreme Court, the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals in New York ruled that a federal law defining marriage as a union between a man and a woman is unconstitutional and said the gay population has “suffered a history of discrimination.”

TILTON — The Doric-Centre Lodge in Tilton will be one of 65 Masonic Lodges holding a special open house on Saturday, Oct 19, to give the people of their communities an unrestricted look at who Masons are and what they do. The lodge will have displays and tours and will also have a grill going from 12:30 to 3 p.m. The purpose of the special Open House, involving 65 Masonic Lodges from Portsmouth to Colebrook, is to demonstrate to people how Freemasonry relates to local communities and attempts through its members to promote social well being. “The people hosting this event are the very people of our own local communities,” said Stewart Aronson, Grand Master of New Hampshire’s 6,400 Masons. “We live, work and play like everyone else, share the same concerns for our kids, like everyone
else and work to make our communities better places to live, just like everyone else. The times, Aronson added, demand that people have a chance to see for themselves what’s “behind our closed doors and to have a sense of the genuine passion we Masons share for the social and spiritual values we embrace.” In keeping with the Grand Master’s objectives, doors to local Masonic Lodges will open promptly at 9 a.m. and remain open until 3 p.m. Member Masons from their own communities will be on hand to answer questions and give guided tours to explain the significance of Lodge furniture, ornaments, jewels and working tools used in private Masonic ceremonies. Lodge members will also address how these symbols of the fraternity apply to its charitable work and the community service work of its members.

Red Sox win pivotal game 5 in Detroit, 4-3 DETROIT (AP) — Mike Napoli’s majestic homer began a rare early Boston breakthrough, Junichi Tazawa again bested Miguel Cabrera in a crucial spot and the Red Sox moved within one win of reaching the World Series by edging the Detroit Tigers 4-3 on Thursday night. Boston returns to Fenway Park with a 3-2 lead in the AL championship series. Game 6 is Saturday with the Tigers’ Max Scherzer facing the Red Sox’s Clay Buchholz. Cabrera was thrown out at the plate in the first inning, halting an early Detroit rally, and he hit into a double play against Tazawa with runners at the corners in the seventh. The Tigers scored a run on the grounder, but it was a trade-off the Red Sox were willing to make. Napoli led off a three-run second with a drive off Anibal Sanchez into the ivy beyond the wall in center field. Detroit’s starters had allowed only three runs in 27 innings through the first four games of the series. After pitching six no-hit innings in Game 1, Sanchez allowed four — three earned — in six innings Thursday. Jon Lester allowed two runs and seven hits in 5 1-3 innings Thursday. He walked three and struck out three, and the Boston bullpen held on to finish off the fourth game of the series to be decided by one run. Down 4-2 in the seventh, the Tigers put runners on first and third with nobody out when Jose Iglesias and Torii Hunter singled. Cabrera, who struck out with runners at the corners against Tazawa in the eighth inning of a 1-0 loss in Game 3, hit a soft grounder to second for a double play this time. That was Detroit’s last stand in this one. Craig Breslow retired slumping Prince Fielder to end the seventh and got the first out of the eighth. Then Koji Uehara got five straight outs for the save.

IPO gives investors a stake in star NFL running back
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Here’s a new twist on fantasy sports: a San Francisco startup is offering a chance to bet on the moneymaking potential of star athletes. The unusual investment opportunity kicked off Thursday with an IPO filing proposing to sell stock for a stake in the future income of the Houston Texans’ Arian Foster, a top running back in the National Football League. The initial public offering hinges on a deal requiring Fantex Holdings Inc. to pay Foster $10 million in return for a 20 percent share of his remaining con-
tract with the Texans, his endorsement income and any other future money tied to his football career. Those earnings could include potential broadcasting jobs that Foster gets after his playing career is over. It doesn’t include money Foster would make if he pursues a career unrelated to football. Fantex plans to sell about 1 million shares at $10 apiece to pay Foster and cover other expenses. The tracking stock won’t trade on a major stock exchange; instead, it will be bought and sold on a trading platform set up by Fantex.
