LACONIA — The Lowell, Massachusetts man who was featured in a HBO production about crack cocaine and former boxer Dicky Eklund was given suspended sentences in state prison for spitting on a Belmont Police Officer.

Gary “Boo-Boo” Giuffida, 58, of High Street in Lowell was also told never to come to New Hampshire again.

After pleading guilty in Belknap County Superior Court this week, Giuffrida was sentenced to 2-to-5 years — all suspended — in the New Hampshire State Prison for simple assault. On a second charge for exposing the officer to a disease by spitting in his face, Giuffrida was sentenced to 3-to-7 year prison sentence — all suspended.

The assault was triggered by Giuffrida’s arrest in November of 2012 for receiving stolen property and fraudulent use of a credit card.

After being processed at the Belmont Police Department, Giuffrida was taken to Lakes Region General Hospital where he see BOO-BOO page 12

4 men given death sentences for India gang rape

NEW DELHI (AP) — An Indian court Friday sentenced to death four men for the gang rape and murder of a young New Delhi woman, ordering them to the gallows for a brutal attack that riveted India, where it became a symbol of the widespread mistreatment of women and the government’s inability to deal with crime.

Issuing his decision, Judge Yogesh Khanna said the attack “shocked the collective conscience” of India. “In these times, when crime against women is on the rise, the courts cannot turn a blind eye toward such gruesome crimes.”

After the death sentence, the wail of one of the four men, 20-yearold Vinay Sharma, filled the tiny courtroom.

Sharma, an assistant at a gym, then broke down in sobs.

As Khanna walked from his bench, defense lawyer A.P. Singh, who has defended all four men at various times, began to shout at him: “This is not the victory of truth. But it is the see INDIA page 12

Stranded residents plucked from Colorado flood waters the night and her husband saying they needed to leave. They stepped outside their trailer and into rushing water that nearly reached their knees.

She got in her car and tried to drive away.

“But I only got so far, because the river was rushing at me, so I threw it in reverse as fast as I could,” Hemme said. “I was so afraid that I was going to die, that water came so fast.”

Others were less fortunate. The body of a woman who had been swept away was found Friday near Boulder, raising the

LYONS, Colo. (AP) — By truck and helicopter, thousands of people stranded by floodwaters came down from the Colorado Rockies on Friday, two days after seemingly endless rain turned normally scenic rivers and creeks into coffee-colored rapids that wrecked scores of roads and wiped out neighborhoods.

Authorities aimed to evacuate 2,500 people from the isolated mountain community of Lyons by the end of the day, either

by National Guard convoys or airlifts.

One of them, Mary Hemme, recalled hearing sirens going off in the middle of

death toll to four.

National Guard troops aided by a break in the weather started airlifting 295 residents from the small community of Jamestown, which has been cut off and without power or water for more than a day.

Dean Hollenbaugh, 79, decided to take one of the helicopters after officials warned electricity and water could be disrupted for weeks.

“Essentially, what they were threatening us with is ‘if you stay here, you may be here for a month,’” Hollenbaugh said as he see FLOOD page 12

Investigators find 36,000 able people collecting disability payments WASHINGTON (AP) — Social Security made $1.3 billion in potentially improper disability payments to people who had jobs when they were supposed to be unable to work, congressional investigators said in a report Friday.

The Government Accountability Office estimated that 36,000 workers got improper payments from December 2010 to January 2013.

The numbers represent less than 1 percent of beneficiaries and less than 1 percent of disability payments made during the time frame. But GAO said the overpayments reveal weaknesses in Social Security’s procedures for policing the system.

“The report lays out clear, common-sense steps that the agency can and should take in order to avoid improper payments,” said Sen. Tom Carper, D-Del., chairman of

the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. “However, if we’re serious about preventing waste and fraud and ensuring that these critical benefits get to the people who need and deserve them, Congress must also do its part and provide needed resources and access to basic anti-fraud data to the Social Security Administration.” see DISABILITY page 9

Anthem to release details of N.H. Obamacare plans CONCORD (AP) — New Hampshire individuals who buy health insurance through the new online marketplace created by the Affordable Care Act will have 11 plans to choose from.

Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield of New Hampshire will be the only company offering health insurance plans through the new marketplace when enrollment opens October 1 for coverage that will take effect in January. The federal government has approved the company’s 11 medical plans, a standalone dental plan and a small number of plans for small businesses, and details about their costs and benefits will be released next week, Anthem president Lisa Guertin said Friday. Four dental plans also will be available from Delta Dental.

While Anthem has faced criticism for creating a smaller provider network for its individual plans, Guertin said that was the only way to keep premiums affordable. The new network includes 16 of the state’s 26 acute-care hospitals.

“It’s narrower, but it’s not a skinny network,” she said. “We really feel that this offering is the optimal balance of affordability and access.”

Guertin’s comments came during the monthly meet-

ing of the Health Exchange Advisory Board, where she serves as co-chair. The board includes consumers, insurers, providers and others who have been advising state agencies on implementing the law.

Under the federal law, virtually everyone in the country will be required to have health insurance or face fines. The new insurance marketplaces will offer individuals and their families a choice of private health plans resembling what workers at major companies already get. The government will help many middle-class households pay their premiums, while low-income people will be referred to safetynet programs they might qualify for.

New Hampshire opted not to run its own online markets, but Gov. Maggie Hassan’s administration has tried to have the state partner with the federal government to manage health plans and provide consumer assistance. Republicans have tried to block the second partnership, leaving a $5 million grant intended for New Hampshire-specific education and outreach in limbo.

The New Hampshire Health Plan, which runs the state’s high-risk pool, has applied to receive the money but is still awaiting a decision. In the meantime, it has hired a consulting firm and issued requests for proposals from companies and organizations that want to play a role in engaging and educating consumers or creating a media campaign to spread the word. Those proposals are due Sept. 20.

Mike Degnan, executive director of the New Hampshire Plan, said the consulting firm, Public Consulting Group, has started work without being paid, and if the grant funding comes through, a contract will be worked out.

Florida girl was bullied for months before her suicide

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — For nearly a year, as many as 15 girls ganged up on 12-year-old Rebecca Ann Sedwick and picked on her, authorities say, bombarding her with online messages such as “You should die” and “Why don’t you go kill yourself.”

Rebecca couldn’t take it anymore.

She changed one of her online screen names to “That Dead Girl.” She messaged a boy in North Carolina: “I’m jumping.” And then, on Monday, the Lakeland girl went to an abandoned concrete plant, climbed a tower and hurled herself to her death.

Authorities have seized computers and cellphones from some of the girls as they decide whether to bring charges in what appeared to be the nation’s latest deadly cyberbullying case.

The bullying started over a “boyfriend issue” last year at Crystal Lake Middle School, Sheriff Grady Judd said. But he gave no details. Police said Rebecca was suspended at one point for fighting with a girl who used to be her friend.

Rebecca had been “absolutely terrorized” by the other girls, Judd said. He said detectives found some of her diaries at her home, and she talked of how depressed she was about the situation.

“Her writings would break your heart,” he said.

The case has illustrated, once more, the ways in which youngsters are using the Internet to torment others.

“There is a lot of digital drama. Middle-school kids are horrible to each other, especially girls,” said Perry Aftab, a New Jersey-based lawyer and expert on cyberbullying.

Trial for man accused of heroin sale to begin Monday LACONIA — A Belknap Superior Court judge has reduced the bail for a Manchester man charged with one count of sales of narcotics from $100,000 cash to $25,000 cash.

Judge James O’Neill ruled yesterday that Alfredo Gonzalez, 46, of Center Street in Manchester must wear an electronic bracelet and provide the court proof the bail money is legally obtained, should he post it.

His trial is scheduled to begin on Monday morning and the jury has been seated.

Initially incarcerated for providing the heroin that killed 22-year-old Ashley Denty in late March of 2011 Gonzalez has been in jail for two years. He is also charged with one general count of sales of heroin.

Earlier this year, a different Belknap County jury found him not guilty of sales of controlled drugs regarding a completely unrelated case.

After a hearing held last week, Gonzalez’s attorney, Mark Sisti, argued that he should be released on personal recognizance bail and both the charges against his client should be dismissed because he had recently learned state and the Laconia Police Department were investigating a different person in connection to Denty’s death — information he said was exculpatory and that he should have had immediately.

The man allegedly posted on his Facebook page that he administered the heroin that killed her. Sisti said the police conducted the interview with him in April and gave the transcript to the prosecutor in July, but he never heard about it until five days before the trial.

A day later, Asst. Belknap County Prosecutor Carley Ahern dropped the most severe charge. She

said the investigation into the man who said he injected Denty with the drug has nothing to do with the charge that Gonzalez sold the drug who ultimately sold it to Denty.

Yesterday, O’Neill ruled that the new evidence was not relevant to the sales-only charge and said the case will go forward Monday as scheduled.

In July, Gonzalez also pleaded guilty to one count of assault by prisoner for an altercation he had with two other inmates while in the Belknap County House of Corrections awaiting his trial for the heroin sales.

He was sentenced to serve 2-to-5 years in the N.H. State Prison — all suspended. He was also given an 8-month sentence in the Belknap County House of Corrections but was credited with eight months of time served.

O’Neill also ruled yesterday the prosecution could use Gonzalez’s guilty plea to assault by prisoner as evidence should he take the stand in his own defense. Sisti had objected to the conviction being allowed into evidence.

O’Neill split the difference by saying the jury had a right to use the conviction to assess Gonzalez’s character if he chooses to testify in his own trial but said he would give the jury a limiting instruction saying they were not to consider his guilty plea to the assault as evidence in the trial for drug sales.

SYRIA from page 2 ons were used — and if so, which agent — not to establish who was responsible. But two U.N. diplomats said the report could point to the perpetrators, saying that the inspectors collected many samples from the attack and also interviewed doctors and witnesses.

Ban spoke shortly before the chief chemical weapons inspector, Ake Sellstrom, told The Associated Press that he would deliver his report to the secretary-general in New York this weekend.

A senior U.S. intelligence official, meanwhile, said the U.S. reached its own figure for the dead in Ghouta by analyzing videos taken in the hours after the attack and counting the number of people who appeared to have died by chemical attack, including bodies under bloodless shrouds — a sign that they probably did not die by rocket fire or some other conventional means.

school students by the year 2020.

The program has taken a giant step forward with the development of an internship data base open to any business and any school in the region, which streamlines the process of linking employers and students. “It is our biggest project to date” said Carmen Lorentz, executive director of the Belknap Economic Development Council.

At lakesregioninternships.com students, working with their guidance counselors can set up an account. Lorentz said that almost 30 firms, representing ever sector of the local economy, are offering some 50 opportunities for internships and job shadows and anticipates that another 25 businesses will soon make similar offerings. Each entry provides an explanation of the position and how to apply for it.

The project was funded with a $15,000 grant from the Samuel P. Pardoe Foundation and the sale of $120,000 worth of tax credits from the Community Development Finance Authority to Eptam Plastics, NGM Insurance, Bank of New Hampshire and Cross Insurance. A data base was developed with Mainstay Technologies designed software. Mainstay, located in Belmont, designed the software, donating significant time and talent to what Lorentz called “a pretty complex project.”

Recently Lorentz presented the project to rave reviews at a conference held by the Northeastern Economic Developers Association, where the six New England states as well as New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland and Delaware were represented. She said that she is weighing the prospects of licensing and marketing the unique program, which would generate a revenue stream to maintain and operate it in the future.

Lorentz encouraged all interested students and their parents to visit the website with its opportunities to explore the world of work . from preceding page discussing the attack both before and afterward — including a conversation where one Syrian commander told the military’s chemical weapons unit to cease firing, because they’d done enough damage, according to a congressional official.

The intelligence official said the U.S. is not going to release those transcripts, in part because foreign intelligence agencies provided some of the material.

The Obama administration also said it had established that rockets were fired from a regime-held area into rebel-held areas through satellite imagery,

Wing-it diplomacy undermines U.S. credibility Here’s how the Obama folks have been starting to spin Syria. The president made a credible threat to use military force in Syria. At the same time, he worked behind the scenes to get Russia’s Vladimir Putin to push Bashir al-Assad to give up chemical weapons.

These two seemingly discordant initiatives, brilliantly coordinated, combined to produce a process to eliminate Assad’s chemical weapons without even a shot being fired across the bow.

Of course, every bit of this is false.

Only the most credulous Obama fans are fooled.

Back on Aug. 20, 2012, in response to an intelligent question from NBC’s Chuck Todd, the president said that the use of chemical weapons by Syria would be a “red line” that would “change my calculus.”

That’s a threat to go to war. As the Washington Post’s Walter Pincus points out, once a president declares a red line, he should be prepared to back it up. He should order military contingency plans, consult with members of Congress and seek support from foreign governments.

There is no evidence that Obama did any of these things in a serious or sustained way in the 366 days between his red-line statement and the use of chemical weapons in the suburbs of Damascus — not even after British and French intelligence reported the use of chemical weapons last spring.

Then during the week of Aug. 26-30, leaks poured out from the administration that Obama would order air strikes in Syria, but only little ones. Regime change was off the table.

On Friday night before the Labor Day weekend, Obama suddenly decided, during a walk in the White House grounds, to seek congressional approval.

Were any soundings taken of congressional opinion before that decision? It doesn’t seem likely.

Even the slightest pulse-taking would have suggested that getting majority approval would be difficult in a House of Representatives where most Republicans mistrust the president and most Democrats are congenitally dovish.

Especially when public opinion strongly opposed any military intervention.

Attempts to propitiate Democrats by stressing that air strikes would be only a pinprick inevitably repelled Republicans willing to support only measures that would weaken or dislodge the Assad regime.

After Labor Day, as media vote counts started showing a majority of House members voting or lean-

ing no, White House Chief of Staff Denis McDonough, who accompanied Obama on his Friday night walk, was still predicting that the administration would prevail. That was either insincere or delusional.

The claim that the Russians agreed to push Syria on chemical weapons only because Obama threatened to use force requires a belief they thought he would do so after an adverse congressional vote.

Not likely.

Nor is it likely that John Kerry’s statement in his Monday press conference in London that the attack could be avoided if Syria submitted to international inspections was part of a calculated strategy. Kerry’s next words were, “But he isn’t about to do it, and it can’t be done, obviously.”

Kerry was winging it, and so was Obama when he spoke favorably of Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s offer to push Syria to give up its poison gas.

So the president’s Wednesday night speech included words supporting military action and other words explaining that it wasn’t necessary.

It can be argued that Obama’s decision to hold off on air strikes and negotiate with the Russians is better for the United States in the short run than the other two alternatives on offer — ineffective air strikes or a landslide repudiation of the commander in chief by Congress.

But in the long run, it’s a terrible setback for America.

Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger muscled the Soviet Union out of Middle East diplomacy back in 1973. In the 40 years since, American presidents have kept the Russians out.

Now they’re back in. A nation with a declining population, a weakened military and an economy propped up only by oil and gas exports has suddenly made itself the key interlocutor in the region.

Obama has allowed this even though it’s obvious that effective disarmament is impossible in a nation riven by civil war and ruled by a regime with every incentive and inclination to lie and conceal.

The negotiations and any fig-leaf inspection process can be dragged out for weeks, months and years, as Saddam Hussein demonstrated.

Obama said he hoped to degrade Syria’s chemical weapons program.

Instead he has degraded his own — and America’s — credibility.

LETTERS Duty, Honor, Country: WWII taught Bob K. the high cost of liberty To The Daily Sun, Some wondered if anyone with Bob Kingsbury’s ideas should serve in public office. It is true that some of Bob’s ideas seem anachronistic, and many are rare in our times. But the abandonment of these ideas, the ideas which enabled America’s greatness and unimagined prosperity for most Americans, has led to many of today’s problems.

Many liberal/progressive politicians think they know how others should live, how they should think, and what they should be allowed to say. To gain power they deceive the public because they often intend to govern against the people’s wishes and best interests (e.g., Obamacare). And all too often politicians use their positions for their own personal gain.

Bob believed in honesty, in fulfilling his promises, in the rule of law equally applied, and in constitutionally limited government. Bob believed that the purpose of American government is to empower the people, not to empower government, and certainly not to empower and enrich politicians.

Unfortunately the proven ideas that Bob advocated have been increasingly abandoned since WWII as progressive promises of government benevolence have lured many voters. The result of progressive policies is loss of jobs, opportunities, wealth and freedom;

increased crime, enormous government waste, a poor, but costly, education system, an increasing number of Americans unnecessarily trapped in poverty, and the immoral passing of our huge national debt to future generations who will suffer because of our gullibility and selfishness.

Liberal and progressive politicians and their friends have gained power, and often wealth, by promoting the idea that everyone deserves to live well as a result of other people’s hard work. But everywhere their enticing ideas have been tried, they reduce the jobs, opportunities, wealth, and freedom for most people... just as they are doing here.

Combat taught Bob Kingsbury the high cost of liberty. Bob lived the military motto, “Duty, Honor, Country.”

Bob advocated for the time-tested principles that result in better lives for Americans: Constitutionally limited government, rule of law, private property rights, capitalism, and morality. Our country, our prosperity, and freedom here and abroad depend on more people and more politicians fighting for and re-implementing these principles.

Bob Kingbury faithfully served his country in war and in peace. He is a great example for the rest of us. He will be missed.

Don Ewing Meredith

Mr. Kingsbury’s service to his country was exemplary. The end To The Daily Sun, Oh, the holier-than-thou letters sent in to say how wonderful Bob Kingsbury was! Really, they made me laugh.

Try to remember that he ran for office 16 times and was elected once — when everyone was mad at the Democrats!

And the letter from Josh Youssef — determined to have violated the Provisions for Purity of Elections by the Attorney General — oh yes, Josh was just appalled! So many appalled selfrighteous people.

I will never forget sitting next to Bob Kingsbury at a legislative breakfast. He told me that he knew how to solve the problem of battered/abused women in Laconia. He wanted every woman who filed an order of protec-

tion to be given a gun by the state of N.H. He really believed that was a good thing.

Mr. Kingsbury was also the man who told the Belknap County Convention that research he’d been conducting for the last 16 years had led him to believe that kindergarten programs lead to higher crime rates. He sponsored a failed effort to tie future state legislation to the Magna Carta.

He tried to push a bill partially ending the direct election of U.S. senators.

So yes, Mr. Kingsbury always comported himself as a gentleman and his service to our country was exemplary.

The end.

However the first thank you must go to the LMS parents and grandparents — whether it was attending our monthly meetings, various presentations, providing innumerable baked goods, chaperoning a variety of events (including middle school dances), helping in the Care Closet, decorating for events, organizing fundraisers and the list goes on. No matter what the request, parents and grandparents always came through in a big way for the children. Thank you.

To the teachers, staff and administration, your support of the LMS PTO and your students has been incredible. I had the privilege to work alongside numerous teachers, all of whom were willing to dedicate their time and energy to better the school and the students. I wish to thank a select few teachers who were particularity involved in the PTO’s endeavors while I was chair. Thank you to Mrs. Steckert our PTO teacher liaison, Ms. Sims (Student Council advisor) and Ms. Columb and Mr. Schneberger (National Junior Honor Society advisor) who were always willing to collaborate with PTO whether it be for our first annual semi-formal dance, or LMS Rock-a-thon or Red Ribbon Week just to name a few. Mr. Theman, Ms. Stefanik and Mr. Clay, what would the middle school dances be without the three of you? The support of the guidance counselors, Mrs. Babcock and Mr. Schneberger, our school nurse Mrs. Reynolds, and Diane Oulette supervisor of LMS kitchen all in numerous ways helped the PTO to grow and thrive. The staff, Sue Dore, Katie Whitney, Dawn Emond, Betsy Jacobson and Deb Williams who, among many other things, sent e-mails, printed flyers and kept the calendar straight as the PTO planned events.

I certainly cannot forget to thank the maintenance team that so willingly set up, and cleaned up after many an event, and may I add always did so with a smile. The administrative team Mr. Ennis, Mrs. Sottak, former princi-

To The Daily Sun, As a former member and chairperson of a planning board and later a zoning board of adjustment in another town I followed the recent events surrounding the so called Bear’s Nest application before the Moultonborough Planning Board with interest. With the hearings to remove two planning board members over I felt everyone involved would step back, take deep breaths and learn something from the multiple mistakes of the planning board and the board of selectmen.

It appears that is not going to happen.

One of the selectmen has chosen to continue a vendetta against two planning board members via this publication. It would appear now that a vendetta, for whatever reason, was this selectman’s objective from the start of the removal process. The selectman in his letter that appeared in the September 13 issue of The Sun gave multiple, valid reasons to suggest errors in the planning board’s decision on the Bear’s Nest application.

However, he chose to do nothing to correct the decision through the clear path available to him under New Hampshire law. One would think that as a select-

pal Mr. McCollum and current principal Mr. Johnson, I do not know how each of you managed to be at so many school events to support LMS, but you did. Thank you for showing your support and dedication both during the school day and at numerous after school activities. Furthermore, it was not unusual to see our retired or current superintendent, Mr. Champlin and Mrs. Forsten, respectively support the LMS PTO events for the children and their families.

So many community members, local organizations and businesses even in these challenging times gave so generously of their resources and time.

Although there are too many to list individually, there are a few that deserve recognition for consistently and wholeheartedly supporting our schools and children: The Laconia Police Department — Chief Adams, Officer Orton, Lt. Lessard and Detective Noyes; Patrick’s Pub and Eatery; Lakes Region Santa Fund and Better Together.

Finally, I cannot forget to mention the children themselves! We should be very proud of the youth at LMS. So often today, the media can portray youth as uninvolved, uncaring and self-centered. That was not my experience! Whether it was babysitting younger children at the PTO meetings, helping to set up for Teacher and Staff Appreciation Breakfast, working the bake sale tables, decorating at events, helping out at the Bow Wow Fest, caroling at local nursing homes, or fundraising for friends in need, the students were always eagerly helping out with a good attitude and a beaming smile. I found the children to be respectful, caring, helpful, funny, engaging and overall a very talented and enthusiastic group of children.

As our celebratory cakes at LMS say, ‘LMS is the Best!’

Before having the opportunity to chair LMS PTO I believed Laconia to be a special community and one that cared deeply for its youth, now I know that to be true! Like all other communities, we have our issues and problems to solve! However, unlike many other communities Laconia’s treasure is in the enormous number of people, organizations and businesses that truly care, get involved, and make a positive difference in the life of so many children, and their community at large! Way to go Laconia, keep doing great things!

Information about N.H. Government Student Intern program available To The Daily Sun, During my first term on the N.H. Executive Council in 1977, I initiated the N.H. Student Intern Program.

This program affords the opportunity for college-age students to gain experience at my Statehouse office; attend official events and legislative hearings and work with N.H. state government agencies and N.H. congressional offices to assist citizens throughout Executive Council District One. There have been 142 interns through this program

that have worked to serve the 263,000 people in the 108 towns and four cities in the seven counties of District One. If anyone is interested in more information about this program, please contact my Statehouse office at 603-271-3632 or my home office at 603-747-3662 at 338 River Road, Bath, NH 03740.

It is an honor to be of service to District One. Ray Burton Executive Councilor

man he would have a duty to invoke a process to correct what he considered to be a serious error. Instead he participated in the selectboard’s attempt to remove two planning board volunteers, accomplishing nothing positive and ignoring his and the selectboard’s responsibility to require a further review of the planning board decision.

Now that the removal effort has fizzled he continues to disparage the two planning board members. What a way to encourage involvement of citizens in volunteer boards in his town!

My experience has been that members of the various volunteer boards throughout the state are typically good, dedicated individuals who care about the values of the boards, committees and commissions that they serve and they spend many hours of their time devoted to the efforts of those groups. Yes these volunteers are human and they sometimes make mistakes. Even selectmen sometimes err. One error, however is not an excuse for this vendetta.

LETTERS Families of men who died in Benghazi deserve to know the truth

Bob Kingsbury can stand with G. Washington & T. Jefferson

To the editor, Five days from the one-year anniversary of the “Benghazi scandal”, Henry Osmer has implored Steve Earle and yours truly to explain why we think that massacre was a scandal. Okay, Henry, I’ll give it one more shot to see if I can bring you out of the darkness and into the light.

— The security was sorely lacking prior to the terrorist attack despite numerous cries for help. Why? — No one knows who ordered the military generals to stand down so that for over eight hours no help ever came. Why? — Why was the attack blamed on a anti-Muslim video for two weeks when the truth was known almost instantly?

— Why has the cover up continued for a year with no arrests when our president promised the terrorists would be captured and prosecuted?

— Why has there been no accountability for the whereabouts of President Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton during most of that night?

— Why have the potential whistleblowers been intimidated into silence?

— It has recently come to light that as a result of Benghazi, allegedly, jihadist terror groups have stolen 400 ground-to-air missiles and are now controlled by those jihadists.

But Henry, it goes far deeper than just the above bullet points. It now appears that the Obama administration, the Democrat party and the complicit media are behind the corrupt cover up in order to avoid another Jimmy Carter debacle which gave rise to Reagan conservatism. It is crystal clear that the White House was shielding President Obama from any political damage during his reelection campaign. The CIA’s alleged, illicit role in smuggling weapons from our Benghazi compound to Turkey and eventually to Syria has never been proved nor disproved.

Drone button pushing aside, President Obama has gone out of his way

To The Daily Sun, In the American Dictionary of the English language published by Noah Webster in 1828 we find the following definitions: Patriotism, n. Love of one’s country; the passion which aims to serve one’s country, either in defending it from invasion, or protecting its rights and maintaining its laws and institutions in vigor and purity.

Patriotism is the characteristics of a good citizen, the noblest passion that animates a man in character of a citizen.

Statesman, A man versed in the arts of government; usually, one eminent for political abilities.

Our Founding Fathers spoke often of the difference between a politician and a statesman. A statesman was understood as a citizen who worked for his livelihood and handled the affairs of the people once a year in a legislative body. They feared career politicians who thrived off the backs of the people. Patriotism often spoken by our Founders meant adherence to the founding principles. Very little of this is done today, even by the flag waving culture.

Who do we know today that fits this identification? I met Robert P. Kingsbury (May 5, 1926 - Sept. 7, 2013) about 15 years ago and felt we would be friends forever. After knowing him for a while I felt we were kindred spirits. His dedication as a young soldier under the command of General Patton fighting Nazism instilled in him an understanding of a totalitarian gov-

to sympathize with the Muslim world and go after anyone who dares to slander the Prophet of Islam. Overseas contingency operations, mancaused disasters, workplace violence, rules of engagement, military political correctness and elimination or avoidance of any references to radical Islam and Islamic terrorism is akin to lying about Imperial Japan after the Pearl Harbor attack.

James Lewis has assured us that Barack Obama, Valerie Jarrett, John Brennan and Hillary Clinton are intimately familiar with the war theology of Islam. They know that the Al-Qaeda signature is always to commit mass murders twice on the same day and thus the Cairo Embassy attack. For those of us who have our heads out of the sand, the fact that the Muslim Brotherhood has infiltrated the White House is no secret though the mainstream media treat that fact as just some conspiracy kookiness.

Henry, if you really want to know about the deadly serious, long range consequences of Benghazi and the Obama pro-Muslim and anti-American culture of corruption then read articles from the following Middle Eastern experts: Walid Phares, Whalid Shoebat, Brigette Gabriel, Nonie Darwish, Reza Kahlili, Erik Stakelback, Raymond Ibrahim, Frank Gaffney, Michael Scheuer and K.T. McFarland. Or check out what the following military folks have to say on the subject: Lt, Col, Ralph Peters, Col. David Hunt, Gen. Jack Keane, Col. Allen West or Lt. Col. Tony Shaffer.

Then perhaps, if you do have an open mind, you will finally understand why Benghazi is a scandal and that it is a day that will live in infamy. If you are of the belief that this is a phony scandal, then let me ask you this. After a year, do the families of Stevens, Glen Doherty, Tyrone Woods and Sean Smith deserve to know the truth and have justice served?

Social Security will continue to provide benefits well into future To The Daily Sun, “There he goes again”’ to quote Ronnie Reagan, this time talking about Tony Boutin, and his continued assault on Social Security. No new idea’s, just the same old rhetoric , “its broke , we are going bankrupt,” not any new idea’s on how to “fix it”.

Here is a history lesson for “Tony”.

Social Security was signed into law by Franklin Roosevelt in 1934, became effective in 1935 , and started paying benefits in 1940.

Ida Mae Fuller receives the first monthly benefit from Social Security.

Her check is for $22.40 It has been paying out to retirees ever since, to millions of Americans , who have and continue to receive them today.

Speaking of Ronnie, who is the “Guru” of the conservatives, he along with Tip O’Neill worked together and fixed Social Security, a compromise, which included yes Tony, a tax

increase. That was in 1982, 31 years ago. Today, it needs “fixing” again. It does not need stupid suggestions, like handing the money over to the Wall Street. gangsters They were responsible for the worst economic decline since the Great Depression. Bushy 2, of “heck of a job Brownie” fame, suggested privatizing and it was rejected, even by some members of his own party.

Social Security will continue to provide benefits now and well into the future.

As the Republican Party continues on the road to its demise, and more responsible people are elected to Congress, then real reform in the BENEFITS plans will take place .

So, Tony, , as my mother use to say, “get over yourself “ and join the 21st Century.

Bill Knightly Gilford

ernment. He spent the rest of his life fighting against the same evil that permeated throughout Nazi Germany and communist Russia. And he saw the signs here in his beloved country.

I am amazed at those who grew up in Nazi Germany, Hungary and Russia are seeing the same force being organized. He did not treat the subversion of our Constitution lightly and labored his entire life to teach others. With the understanding there would be opposition he stepped up and marched forward. He never gave up. He ran for State Representative 12 times before getting elected. Sharing the truth is never easy and often the enemy to facts can be downright mean.

Bob could honestly state that he did his very best and more to preserve that which our founding generation gave us. While others are trading our legacy and heritage for a little porridge and empty promises he did not waver but warned others. Even amidst attacks on his character. He can stand with George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and those who gave us our grand charter. The souls who dedicate their lives to preserve its principles are of the same character as they who gave it. Rest in peace my Good Friend First Scout for General Patton, Lt. Colonel Robert Kingsbury.

Soldier, statesman, patriot, historian and scholar. And above all he considered himself a follower of the teachings of Christ.

Gene F. Danforth Danbury

If you can’t say anything good, do not say anything at all To The Daily Sun, What a shame to see the comments from Mr. Huot in Tuesday’s Sun stating “Although some of us did not think it wise that a person with his views should serve in public office”, as well as Mr.Huot’s statement “I can’t remember anything on which Bob Kingsbury and I ever agreed on”.

Mr. Huot is entitled to his opinion of course, but being added like it was to a tribute to a true PATRIOT is way out of line and disrespectful.

I am sure Bob’s family is disappointed in those remarks and Mr. Huot should be ashamed. An apology

is definitely in order.

Bob was all that Mr. Huot described in the rest of the tribute and without those two sentences would have kept the tribute well done. He should have taken a page from Mr. Kitch”s article also in Tuesday’s Sun, being more positive. I would think in a tribute to some one it would be in better taste to keep in mind that if you can’t say something good do not say anything at all.

May Bob Rest in Peace he was a TRUE PATRIOT. He will be missed.

Problem with right-wing nuts is they think soldiers are expendable To The Daily Sun, I would like to inform Mr. Schwotzer that his assertion of my math was incorrect was true. I feel that his opinion that the increase in the national debt of two wars that were in full force when Pres. Obama took office was also incorrect. While I agree that it make no sense to bicker back and forth, reread my last letter Mr. Schwotzer and answer, why is a civilian death more important than a military death, both in harms way,war or not?

Yes, I remember Sept. 11, 2001. I also know that 3,000+ died that day. I also know that thousands of American military personnel were killed, many thousands more wounded — some very seriously, with total disability. I read a little on the Beruit bombing in

1983, when 241 military were killed on a peace-keeping mission, no investigation. Pres. Reagan removed the rest four months later. We were not at war in Lebanon. Where was the scandal then, Mr. Schwotzer?

The problem the right wing nuts have is they feel the military are expendable, hardly ever will they be mentioned in a letter in The Sun. Your comment at the end of your letter was cute. I realize that I don’t write with big words — cute statements — but I will say you talk the talk but you don’t walk the walk.

In reference to Steve Earle’s letter today, I will not indulge in any more comments to his letters.

$2M sought to preserve Mt. Major trails ALTON (AP) — There’s an effort underway to raise nearly $2 million to project New Hampshire’s Mount Major and preserve its trails.

The state owns the Mount Major parking lot and the summit, but the land in between is owned privately.

WMUR-TV reports while there is no current threat to close any of the trails, the Lakes Region Conservation Fund and the Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests said they want to make sure it never happens.

Brenda Charpentier of the Forest

Society says four willing landowners are interested in selling their land.

“You never know what’s going to happen in the future, and we can make sure that these trails stay open,” Charpentier said. “We have that opportunity right now.

The amount, $1.8 million, would buy the four trails and hundreds of acres.

“If we are successful, we can address permanent protection,” said Dave Anderson of the Forest Society.

The mountain is in Alton, south of Lake Winnipesaukee.

DISABILITY from page 2

Using a federal wage database, investigators checked whether a sample of disability beneficiaries had worked and earned significant wages during the waiting period, the report said. They found that most of the improper payments went to people who worked during the five months they waited for payments to begin.

Once people start receiving benefits, they can return to work and still get benefits during a trial work period, in an attempt to re-enter the workforce.

Using the same wage database, investigators checked whether another sample of disability beneficiaries earned significant wages after their trial work period had ended, the report said.

Based on their findings, the GAO estimated the amount of improper payments and the number of people receiving them.

Citing a potential weakness, the report said Social Security might not detect a person who worked during the waiting period if the period started in one year and ended in another.

The Social Security Administration said its accuracy rate for disability payments is more than 99 percent.

But the agency noted that even small errors translate into big numbers.

“We are planning to do an investigation, and we will recoup any improper payments from beneficiaries,” Social Security spokesman Mark Hinkle said. “It is too soon to tell what caused these overpayments, but if we determine that fraud is involved, we will refer these cases to our office of the inspector general for investigation.”

More than 8.2 million disabled workers received disability payments in December 2010, a figure that has grown to nearly 9 million. Last year, the agency paid out $137 billion in disability payments.

Before people can receive disability benefits, there is a 5-month waiting period in which they can, in general, earn no more than about $1,000 a month. The waiting period is to ensure that beneficiaries have long-term disabilities.

Woman in Madison fends of bear with baby gate DOVER (AP) — A New Hampshire woman says she fended off a 300pound black bear with a baby gate.

Lisa Webb said she “whacked it in the head” just before Labor Day weekend, as she and her family were settling in at a home in Madison.

Webb tells the Portsmouth Herald it was dusk and she was sitting inside with her 11-year-old daughter. Then they heard their dogs and looked out-

side: a bear was on the deck.

Webb said, she ran outside, grabbing a baby gate to defend herself and to try to prevent her Labrador retriever and black Lab from going after the bear.

She struck the bear in the head. The bear eventually went away, but clawed one of the dogs, seriously injuring it.

The dog is recovering from surgery.

BRIARCREST from page one for the purchase” and, in the meantime, requires the owners to bargain in good faith with the cooperative.

Jim Cowan, president of the cooperative, insists “if we don’t own the land, we don’t control our destiny.” In particular, he fears for the lease agreement, which limits the annual increase in park rents to the increase in property taxes and special assessments, such as the trash collection contract, and, at the discretion of the owner, the percentage increase in the consumer price index (CPI).

Orrie Gibbs, who has lived at Briarcrest for the past 21 years, is among those who favors the sale to Maple Holding and Redevelopment, LLC. She doubts a cooperative can service the debt required to purchase the park without either raising rents beyond the limits set by the existing agreement or reducing operating expenses by cutting services, which would impair the quality of life in the community.

A real estate paralegal, Gibbs dismissed Cowan’s concern for the lease agreement, claiming that “whoever owns the park must honor the lease agreement.” Instead, she said that cooperative ownership posed a greater threat of higher rents.

Gibbs said that ROC-NH, a program of the New Hampshire Community Loan Fund, which has assisted and financed the conversion of 107 manufactured housing parks to cooperative ownership, has proposed a financing package. The cooperative would borrow $5.1 million at near 5 percent for 20 years from the New Hampshire Community Loan Fund and make only interest payments for the first five years, but repay both principal and interest afterwards.

She said the cooperative would likely refinance the loan after five years at a higher interest rates, noting that “rates have already begun to rise.” A commercial lender, most likely a bank, would finance the balance of the purchase price at a market rate.

“I am concerned by the magnitude of the amount of money the cooperative wants to borrow,” Gibbs said. Stressing that the lease agreement not only caps rent annual increases but renews automatically each year, she questioned how the cooperative could service a debt of $10 million while honoring the lease agreement. Furthermore, she noted that “the cooperative must make money, enough to pay its bills and keep reserve fund for unforeseen expenses.”

Gibbs acknowledged that while parks have converted to cooperative ownership, most are much smaller with different lease agreements and, above all, incurred far less debt and far fewer expenses than would be required to acquire and maintain Briarcrest.

According to Gibbs, only a small minority of the 231 tenants at Briarcrest favor cooperative ownership.

When the cooperative voted to submit a purchase and sales agreement, only 31 tenants voted, she said, and two of them voted “no.” She said that when the Mooney polled the tenants 176 opposed cooperative ownership and favored the sale to Maple Holding and Redevelopment, LLC. Last week, on the strength of the poll results, attorney John Giere, on behalf of the Mooneys, petitioned the Belknap County Superior Court to find that they had met their obligation to bargain in good faith with both parties and that by refusing to accept the cooperative’s offer they would not be liable to penalties. The statute provides that owners who fail to bargain in good faith may be subject to a penalty of $10,000 or 10 percent of the sale price, whichever is greatest, or in this case $1-million.

Attorney Brenda Smith-Weiss, who represents Lakemont Cooperative, said that she has not yet been served, but would prepare a response to the Mooneys’ filing in due course.

Lightning strikes Rochester Fair ride ROCHESTER (AP) — A new thrill ride at the Rochester Fair was struck by lightning during Thursday’s storms and will be out of service for a couple of days.

Foster’s Daily Democrat reports that a computer operating the 120-foot-tall Speed XXL ride was damaged.

“Due to Mother Nature, during the recent thunderstorm, the Speed XXL was impacted and will not be in operation until early next week,” the fair posted on Facebook. “Sorry for the inconvenience.”

A replacement computer is coming in from Europe.

ROAD from page one are at least three homes are built.

The road is built and the Department of Public Works and the planning director worked closely with Blue Sky to build it so it would be easy for the town to plow and maintain.

Warren said he had applied to the town to accept the now-finished roadway as a town road, but Dunn had sent him a letter telling him accepting Howe Farm Road before any homes are built is premature and does not meet any “public need.”

During the course of Warren’s presentation to the board, he made several points, including that it would be impossible to sell lots because without a public road because there wouldn’t be enough frontage, but ended his presentation by saying he didn’t want to seem threatening but if the board didn’t “take (it) right away (they’re) essentially saying no to the subdivision ...we’ll be forced to litigate.”

Dunn exploded. “To imply that he can’t sell a lot if the town doesn’t take it over has no basis in fact.”

“There is nothing in the law that says the town ever has to take a private road and there is no guarantee it will ever be a town road,” Dunn continued.

“To threaten us with litigation, I say, ‘Bring it on,’” he said.

Selectmen Gus Benavides and John O’Brien also said they interpreted Warren’s statement the same way Dunn did, although Warren spent most of the rest of the presentation trying to mollify the board.

“I would say that if you want us to help you, don’t even bring that word (litigation) up,” Benavides said, adding selectmen hadn’t discussed the road yet, that Selectman Kevin Hayes, who represents the selectmen on the Planning Board was unavailable for last Wednesday’s meeting, and that selectmen will make the decision — not the town administrator.

“We make out own decisions,” he said.

According to Planning Director John Ayer, who spoke on the phone yesterday but was not at Wednesday’s meeting, Blue Sky Development has the frontage it needs to sell the lots because the definition of frontage is the length of road bordering a rightof-way and has nothing to do with being public or private.

Dunn’s recommendation was made in light of the fact that it is close to winter and he doesn’t want to spend town resources plowing a road with no homes.

Warren said it is much easier to sell a house on a public road — a statement with which everyone agrees — but said he was up against the impending winter season and would like to get a few lots sold before then so they can be planned in time for the spring building season.

He also said that it is in the town’s best financial interests to get the lots sold as quickly as possible because each lot will pay a 10-percent land use change tax and it could realize as much as $140,000 sooner rather than later.

He also said it makes sense in the long run to accept the road, which is about 1,000 feet long with a cul-de-sac and driveway cuts, sooner than later so it can generate property taxes.

Warren also said that Dunn’s recommendation was the result of a “new rule” but Benavides told him there is “no new rule” and that has always been entirely within the selectman’s purview to make a private road public.

Benavides also wanted to know if the Planning Board “guaranteed” acceptance to which Warren said Blue Sky and the Planning Board had a “gentleman’s agreement” but that nothing was ever guaranteed.

Dunn said he met privately with Warren, his business partner and wife, and Ayer on Thursday but nothing was resolved in that meeting.

Dunn reiterated yesterday that the selectmen make the decisions and he only makes recommendations.

The relentless rush of water from higher ground turned towns into muddy swamps, and the rain returned Friday afternoon after brief lull. In at least one community, pressure from the descending water caused sewer grates to erupt into huge black geysers.

Damage assessments were on hold with many roads impassable and the rain expected to continue.

BOO-BOO from page one spat in the face of one of the officers.

Giuffrida is HIV positive and was in a spit mask but the spittle reached the side of the officer’s face.

The motion picture “The Fighter” was based on the live of Giuffrida’s friend, the later boxer Dicky Eklund who was also from Lowell. Eklund and Giuffrida was also the subject of the HBO documentary “High on Crack Street: Lost Lives in Lowell.”

“This one’s going to bring us to our knees,” said Tom Simmons, president and co-owner of Crating Technologies, a Longmont packing service that had its warehouse inundated. “It’s hoping against hope. We’re out of business for a long time.”

About 90 miles of Interstate 25 were closed Friday from Denver to Cheyenne, Wyo., because of flooding from the St. Vrain, Poudre and Big Thompson rivers, transportation officials said.

Hundreds of people were forced to seek emergency shelter up and down Colorado’s heavily populated Front Range, which has received more than 15 inches of rain this week, according to the National Weather Service.

That’s about half the amount of precipitation that normally falls in the foothills near Boulder during an entire year.

Boulder County officials said 80 people were unaccounted for Friday.

But, they noted, that doesn’t necessarily mean they are missing.

“It means we haven’t heard back from them,” county spokesman James Burrus said.

Two backpackers became stranded on Longs Peak, one of Colorado’s highest mountains, after the weather

In the town of Drake, the Big Thompson River was more than 4 feet above flood stage. The Big Thompson caused the deadliest flash flood in state history in 1976, when about a foot of rain fell in just four hours, killing 144 people.

Between the Big Thompson and Little Thompson rivers, Jose Ayala spent Friday morning picking through what was left of his family’s possessions in their two-story farmhouse near Berthoud.

He and his sons watched the waters rise all Thursday evening, finally making the decision to flee at 11 p.m. with some documents and a computer.

“The rest is in the house. All gone, basically,” Ayala said.

Some of the flooding was exacerbated by wildfire “burn scars” that have spawned flash floods all summer in the mountains. The flames strip away vegetation that normally helps absorbs excess water and leave a residue behind that sheds water.

One person was killed when a structure in Jamestown collapsed. Another man drowned in floodwaters north of Boulder while trying to help the woman whose body was found Friday.

To the south, Colorado Springs officers conducting flood patrols found the body of a 54-year-man in a creek.

Like all death sentences, Khanna’s order must be confirmed by India’s High Court. The men can appeal their case to the High Court, as well as to the Supreme Court, and ask the president for clemency.

The victim’s family, along with

numerous politicians and government officials, had long called for the men to be executed. The family was in the courtroom as the sentence was announced. “I am very happy our girl has got justice,” said the victim’s father, who cannot be named under Indian laws guarding his daughter’s see next page

The pair hiked off the mountain themselves as the National Park Service was organizing a rescue effort.

The park service closed Rocky Mountain National Park and was escorting visitors and residents of Estes Park on a trail over the Continental Divide.

In Lyons, residents took shelter on higher ground, including some at an elementary school, before National Guard convoys could push through the water and into the isolated town.

The convoys carried 15 people at a time to buses beyond the roadblocks, past cheering crowds.

Dawn Lundell and John Johnson decided not to wait, instead hiking from the town through 200 yards of water in a canal. They described a “calm, reasonably festive” atmosphere among those who remained.

“Nobody minds roughing it a little bit in Lyons. We’re all outdoorsy people. We call it Mayberry. Everybody helps each other and everybody loves each other so we’re all helping each other out,” Lindell said.

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Saturday, September 14, 2013— Page 13

Saltalamacchia’s grand slam in 7th sends Red Sox past Yankees, 8-4 BOSTON (AP) — Jarrod Saltalamacchia hit a tiebreaking grand slam in the seventh inning, Koji Uehara closed with another perfect inning and the Boston Red Sox beat the New York Yankees 8-4 Friday night.

David Ortiz and Stephen Drew each doubled twice as the AL East-leading Red Sox won for the 15th time in 19 games. Saltalamacchia also doubled and scored twice.

Uehara breezed through the ninth. He’s retired 37 straight batters, the longest streak by a reliever since Bobby Jenks of the White Sox set down 41 in a row in 2007.

Robinson Cano went 4 for 4 with three doubles and two RBIs for New York, which began the day one game behind Tampa Bay for the final AL wildcard spot.

Brendan Ryan, acquired from Seattle on Tuesday for a player to be named, hit his first homer with the

Yankees.

New York had won three in a row. Last weekend, Boston took three of four games at Yankee Stadium.

Brandon Workman (6-3) got the win, retiring one batter.

The Red Sox scored four times in the first off Hiroki Kuroda (11-11), but the Yankees came back to tie it.

Shane Victorino opened the seventh with a single off Kuroda. Reliever Cesar Cabral hit Ortiz with a pinch and Preston Claiborne walked pinch-hitter Jonny Gomes.

After Daniel Nava struck out, Saltalamacchia hit his third career slam, connecting off Claiborne for a drive over Boston’s bullpen into the right-field seats.

Trailing 4-2 in the seventh, the Yankees chased Boston starter John Lackey and tied it Cano’s basesloaded, two-run double off reliever Craig Breslow.

New York had runners on second and third, but

from preceding page identity as a rape victim.

The 23-year-old victim and a male friend — by all accounts they were not romantically involved — were coming home last December from an evening showing of the movie “Life of Pi” when the men lured them into boarding a bus they were joy-riding through the city.

They quickly beat the friend, held the woman down and took turns raping her. They also penetrated her with a metal rod, causing the massive injuries that led to her death in a Singapore hospital.

India’s Supreme Court has ruled that the death penalty should be used only in “the rarest of rare cases,” though what defines those cases remains highly debated. Only two people — both terrorists — have been executed in India since 2004.

Under intense pressure, the Congress partyled national government worked hard to project a

tough-on-crime image after the attack, reforming a series of laws on sexual violence. Many in the party, which faces dwindling support and national elections next year, had made clear they wanted the men to be executed.

Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde, who earlier in the week said death sentences were assured in the case, welcomed the sentence. “The victim and her family have got justice,” he told reporters in New Delhi. “The judge has set an example for anti-social elements that they would meet a similar fate if they committed such crimes.”

Workman got Alfonso Soriano on a bouncer to third.

The Red Sox took a quick 4-0 lead. Dustin Pedroia singled, Ortiz doubled and Mike Carp had an RBI grounder.

Daniel Nava singled home a run and Drew hit a two-run double off the Green Monster, just inside the foul line.

With pitchers warming in the bullpen behind him, Kuroda looked as if he was on the verge of being pulled when Boston threatened in the second and third. The 38-year old right-hander responded by escaping a bases-loaded, one-out jam in the second and held the Red Sox scoreless after a leadoff double the next inning.

Kuroda allowed five runs, eight hits, walked two and fanned two in six-plus innings. He’s 0-4 with a 6.69 ERA in his last six starts.

Lackey gave up four runs on seven hits in 6 1-3 innings.

Ryan homered into the first row of seats above the Monster, cutting it to 4-1 in the third.

AND

As of September 1, 2013 there were 1,249 residential single family homes on the market in the 12 communities covered by this report. The average asking price stood at $498,590 with a median price point of $259,800. The current inventory level represents just under 15 months worth of homes on the market.

The real estate industry and the way consumers look for real estate continues to evolve at warp speed. Pretty soon, there is going to be a Star Trek Home Shopper Mobile App that will “beam me up, Scotty” right to the exact location of the new home you want to see. That device will simultaneously beam your real estate agent without notice to the same locale despite the fact that he has just sat down for dinner with the family. That will be only slightly more inconvenient than it is today, but if he is sitting down for dinner with the in-laws at least he won’t have to make excuses.

Real estate is going mobile in a big way. A recent study by Google and the National Association of Realtors reports that 48 percent of home buyers used a mobile device to look for a home and 45 percent used the device to request more information on a property. About a third of the visitors to my own site, lakesregionhome.com, are using mobile devices. As the tech industry produces more affordable devices, more people buy smart phones and tablets, those numbers are likely to increase substantially. It only stands to reason that consumers will use them to look for their new home from the comfort of their living room sofa instead of on their desktop PC. The study reports that 90 percent of buyers use the internet to search for homes. That number rose to an amazing 96 percent for those under the age of 44. Searches for real estate on Google

has risen 253 percent over the past four years.

That’s pretty amazing.

But, getting back to mobile devices, apps make it easy for you to search for property when you are in your car and find a neighborhood you would like to live in. I would strongly suggest that you pull over to the side of the road before using it or have your co-pilot be in charge of it otherwise you are more apt to have an accident than not. Most major real estate search sites have apps specifically designed for use on smart phones so that you can pull up to the front door of a home that’s for sale, hit the search button, the phone’s built in GPS does its thing, and the somehow Scotty beams you all the information on the house.

To get one of these apps, all you have to do is go to your favorite real estate website and download their mobile app and you’re in business. Some apps even provide location and phone info on area attraction, restaurants, marinas, and where to find the closest gas station if you are running out of gas.

Once you have reviewed the homes info and looked at all the pictures on your mobile device there’s a little button you can click to email or call the listing agent to see the property. Like I said, the next generation app will immediately transport the listing agent to your vehicle, but that’s still a couple years off...

LACONIA — The Laconia Historical and Museum Society has placed ‘’The Faces of Laconia’’ on display at the Belknap County Nursing Home.

Alan MacRae, a local freelance photojournalist introduced his project called “The Faces of Laconia” in a presentation to the residents and staff of the facility. ‘’About a year and a half ago, Alan approached LHMS with an idea he had to photograph and inter-

view a list of individuals whom he thought had made significant contributions to the City of Laconia. We accompanied Alan as he interviewed and photographed his subjects. The interviews - always interesting and enlightening - were typically about an hour long. We are excited to have him share the results of this amazing project with all of us,’’ says Brenda Polidoro, executive director of the Laconia Historical and Museum Society.

FRANKLIN — Singer-songwriter Katie Rose, the rose of the North Country, will appear at Franklin Opera House on Friday, September 20 at 7:30 pm.

erful, socially conscious piece of music.

Prior to the performance at Franklin Opera House, Rose will present two workshops at the Paul Smith Elementary School, in Franklin, working with the children there to help them develop their musical sense.

Any child attending the workshop will be given a free ticket to the evening performance, to be used in conjunction with a paid admission by an adult.

PLYMOUTH — The 2013-14 season at Plymouth State University’s Silver Center for the Arts opens Sunday, September 15 at 7 p.m. with the New Gary Burton Quartet, led by iconic vibraphonist and seven-time Grammy winner Gary Burton. This undisputed king of the four-mallet technique has created a winning vibe alongside an array of musicians from Chet Atkins to k.d. lang and Chick Corea.

Tickets for the New Gary Burton Quartet in the Hanaway Theatre are $35-30 for adults, $33-28 for seniors and $20-15 for youth.

Singer/songwriter/acoustic guitarist David Wilcox will perform Friday, September 27 at 8 p.m. in the Smith Recital Hall at the Silver Center.

Acoustic Guitar described Wilcox as “James Taylor combined with the husky breathiness more reminiscent of the late Nick Drake.” In a career marked by personal revelation and wildly loyal fans, David Wilcox has fearless ability to mine the depths of joy, sorrow and everything in between—all tempered by a quick, wry wit. Tickets are $35 for adults, $33 for seniors and $20 for youth.

Comedian Ted Alexandro performs at the Silver Center on Saturday, October 5 at 8:30 p.m. Blog Talk Radio reports, “A native New Yorker, Ted moonlighted as a comedian while teaching music to grade schoolers during the day. His comedy career took off and he has appeared on all the big late night shows numerous times, made two Comedy Central specials, and a hit CD and DVD. When he’s not making people belly laugh at the nation’s top comedy clubs, Ted spends time with Occupy Wall Street.” A comedian for 20 years, Alexandro has performed internationally in Jordan, Egypt, Kuwait, Hong Kong, South Korea, Singapore, Jakarta, England, Holland, Israel, South Africa and Qatar.

Tickets for Alexandro’s performance in the Hanaway Theatre, which may contain adult language and themes, are $25-20 for adults, $23-18 for seniors and $20-15 for youth.

MANCHESTER — Historic buildings and other structures are at risk all over the state. Each year, the New Hampshire Preservation Alliance spotlights endangered historic properties and helps make the case for preserving and re-investing in these landmarks.

Nominations for the Alliance’s Seven to Save program are due on September 16 for the 2013 list, which will be announced on October 22.

New Hampshire is known for its historic character. Brick mill buildings, old barns, and stately homes and churches define the places that visitors and residents appreciate and enjoy.

Arts and cultural activities are often centered in historic theaters, granges or schools, and recreational pastimes include dining in historic restaurants, traveling on historic roads and trails, and shopping in historic downtowns.

However, many places have historic landmarks that are in decline, have not yet been revived, or may even be close to demolition. The uncertain future and deteriorated condition of these structures often jeopardizes surrounding property values and can represent a lost opportunity for economic and community development.

“Obstacles to the continuing or new use of many of these landmarks can frequently be overcome through creative planning, new investment, and the hard work of local advocates— all aspects of preservation that the Seven to Save program supports,” said Maggie Stier, field service representative and coordinator of Seven to Save for the NH Preservation Alliance.

The Seven to Save program is now in its eighth year, with nearly half of the previously listed sites considered saved.

Major success stories of properties that were once on the list include the revitalized Pandora Mill in Manchester and the restored Acworth Meetinghouse. Many others are making significant progress toward preservation. Last year’s list

included the Kensington Town Hall, the Littleton Community Center, Exeter’s Ioka Theater, the Moultonboro Grange, New Durham’s 18th century Meetinghouse, the Drew Mill and Dam in Union (Wakefield), and Walpole’s Vilas Bridge.

“Investment in these properties provides opportunities for new uses, economic development and environmentally sustainable construction,” said Jennifer Goodman, director of the NH Preservation Alliance. “Our goals include increasing local capacity for saving historic landmarks, and engaging more people in the worthwhile activities of the preservation movement, activities that have broad public benefit for the health and appearance of our communities.”

Nominations to the New Hampshire Seven to Save list can be for residential or commercial properties, industrial heritage sites such as bridges or transportation structures, agricultural buildings, threatened building types, or a group of similar resources.

The nominated resource must be over 50 years old and a significant representation of the state’s heritage. Criteria for Seven to Save include the property’s historical or architectural significance, severity of the current threat, and the extent to which the Seven to Save listing would help in preserving or protecting the property.

Anyone can submit a nomination for the Seven to Save list. Previous nominations have come from concerned citizens, neighborhood advocacy groups, non-profit organizations, and municipal governments or commissions. Nomination forms may be downloaded at the Preservation Alliance’s website, www.nhpreservation.org, or may be requested from the Preservation Alliance office at 603-224-2281. The submission deadline is September 16. The list will be announced at the N.H. Preservation Alliance’s annual meeting on October 22 at the Masonic Temple on Elm Street in Manchester.

Nominations due Monday for ‘Seven to Showboat of Talent will benefit Save’ historic preservation campaign Lakes Region Habitat for Humanity

SANBORNTON — Mark your calendars for Friday, September 20, at 6:30 p.m. because you will want to be in Sanbornton when the Showboat docks.

Come early to get your seat on the upper deck (sanctuary) and expect to be entertained by the finest and best of the Sanbornton Congregational Church’s talent from young to young at heart in age. Even a few from the community might sneak in to perform.

Jasper the Therapy Dog will perform, along with guitar players, pianists, soloists, and choral groups. This is sure to be a light hearted and fun evening, reminiscent of the old riverboat shows on the Showboats.

You will not need a ticket to get in the door, but be prepared to dig deep into your pockets at intermission time. This Showboat of Talent is a fundraiser for the building of the Lakes Region Habitat for Humanity’s

first handicapped assessable house.

The home is for the Soboslai/Emerson family and is being built on Dearborn Street in Franklin. During the social/ refreshment time on the lower deck (Undercroft) guests will get to meet this family.

The Soboslai/Emerson family has been working with the Lakes Region Habitat for Humanity for four years to make their dream come true of owning a home that will meet their special needs. The family is Rob and Kelly Soboslai, their son RJ who has entered middle school this fall, and Kelly’s mother, Barbara Emerson.

Work is progressing so well on the house that it’s a toss up as to whether they will be moved in by Thanksgiving or Christmas. Volunteers are always welcome to help with finishing the work on the house. Call the Lakes Region Habitat for Humanity at 2794820 or email info@lrhabitat.org.

Get Fuzzy

By Holiday Mathis

because attention is an actual force. Also, everything you observe will be changed by the fact that you were there to observe it.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Life will bring you an experience that reinforces the fact that the way you think of yourself is different from the way others think of you. In general, you are much harder on yourself than they are.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The cleverness of the human brain is exemplified in its ability to find reasons to support whatever premise it is in love with at the moment. You realize that you, too, have this handicap and therefore can’t take yourself too seriously.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 14). A kind of purification allows you to start new in October. The end of the year shows you lighter, brighter and free from mental clutter.

Getting what you want won’t take anything away from others; rather, it will be good for all when December rolls around. Business will be lucrative in February. Sagittarius and Libra people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 25, 12, 3, 39 and 5.

by Chad Carpenter

ARIES (March 21-April 19). The overriding feeling is that you’re on your way.

Where to? Does that really matter at this ripe moment of fresh optimism? Use your happy feet, and go forward with gusto.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Where your attention goes, so goes your love. That statement may seem incorrect if you’re sending a great deal of attention in a negative direction.

People have been known to love their problems, though. Why not you?

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Your point of view is a novel one, so avoid speaking in generalities. You will be stunningly charismatic as you put your own spin on things and mention the details that matter to you most.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Is it true that traveling light equals traveling happy?

You won’t think so if you forget a key item like your coat, toothbrush or umbrella. And if presenting to a crowd is on the agenda, there’s no such thing as being too prepared.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Delusions are like property. You wouldn’t dream of robbing another person of his delusions unless those delusions were causing real peril. The truth will come out when it’s supposed to.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You have a low tolerance for verbal indulgence, and that’s only fair. People like you, who do not easily (or ever) talk about their “issues,” might resent having to listen to those who do.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Not only are you determined to protect those who are younger, smaller and weaker, but you also encourage others to uphold the spirit of valor.

This is what it takes to heal the world.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). In some situations, it is appropriate to hide your feelings.

But don’t hide them so well that you forget where you put them. You’ll get your moment of release tonight.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). It isn’t always the case, but today doing things the “right” way is overrated. Do it your way, and see if that doesn’t save you a lot of time.

Bonus: The result will have your stamp on it.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The act of measuring a thing alters the measurement

––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Saturday, Sept. 14, the 257th day of 2013. There are 108 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Sept. 14, 1814, Francis Scott Key was inspired to write a poem, “Defence of Fort McHenry,” after witnessing how an American flag flying over the Maryland fort withstood a night of British bombardment during the War of 1812; the poem later became the words to “The Star-Spangled Banner.”

On this date: In 1812, Napoleon Bonaparte’s troops entered Moscow following the Battle of Borodino to find the Russian city largely abandoned and parts set ablaze.

In 1829, the Treaty of Adrianople was signed, ending war between Russia and the Ottoman Empire.

In 1861, the first naval engagement of the Civil War took place as the USS Colorado attacked and sank the Confederate private schooner Judah off Pensacola, Fla. In 1901, President William McKinley died in Buffalo, N.Y., of gunshot wounds inflicted by an assassin. Vice President Theodore Roosevelt succeeded him.

In 1927, modern dance pioneer Isadora Duncan died in Nice (nees), France, when her scarf became entangled in a wheel of the sports car she was riding in.

In 1941, Vermont passed a resolution enabling its servicemen to receive wartime bonuses by declaring the U.S. to be in a state of armed conflict, giving rise to headlines that Vermont had “declared war on Germany.”

In 1963, Mary Ann Fischer of Aberdeen, S.D., gave birth to four girls and a boy, the first known surviving quintuplets in the United States.

In 1964, Pope Paul VI opened the third session of the Second Ecumenical Council of the Vatican, also known as “Vatican II.” (The session closed two months later.)

In 1975, Pope Paul VI declared Mother Elizabeth Ann Bayley Seton the first U.S.-born saint.

In 1982, Princess Grace of Monaco, formerly actress Grace Kelly, died at age 52 of injuries from a car crash the day before; Lebanon’s president-elect, Bashir Gemayel, was killed by a bomb.

In 1988, Hurricane Gilbert slammed into Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula as a Category 5 storm after forcing thousands of residents to flee.

In 1991, the government of South Africa, the African National Congress and the Inkatha Freedom Party signed a national peace pact.

Five years ago: Losing its devastating punch as a major hurricane, Ike nevertheless drubbed the Midwest with powerful winds and floodwaters.

Carlos Zambrano pitched the first no-hitter for the Chicago Cubs in 36 years, striking out 10 in a 5-0 win over Houston in a game relocated to Milwaukee because of Hurricane Ike. One year ago: Fury over an anti-Muslim film ridiculing the Prophet Muhammad spread across the Muslim world, with deadly clashes near Western embassies in Tunisia and Sudan, an American fast-food restaurant set ablaze in Lebanon, and international peacekeepers attacked in the Sinai.

A French gossip magazine’s publication of topless photos of Prince William’s wife, Kate, prompted an immediate lawsuit from the royal couple and statements of outrage from palace officials.

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Saturday, September 14, 2013— Page 23

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Dear Annie: Years ago, Ann Landers printed a hilarious piece called “How To Give Your Cat a Pill.” I have two cats and can truly identify with the sentiment. Can you find the piece and put it in your column? -- Condo Owner Dear Condo Owner: With pleasure. The piece originally appeared in the Laguna Beach, Calif., Coastline NEWS and appeared in the Ann Landers column in 1999. And before we get any complaints from cat lovers, this is a piece of humor, not to be taken seriously.

How to Give Your Cat a Pill by Bob Story Pick cat up and cradle it in the crook of your left arm as though holding a baby. Position right forefinger and thumb on either side of cat’s mouth, and gently apply pressure to his cheeks. When cat opens up, pop pill into mouth. Cat will then close mouth and swallow.

Retrieve pill from floor and cat from behind sofa. Repeat the process.

Retrieve cat from bedroom, and throw soggy pill away.

Kneel on floor with cat wedged firmly between knees, immobilizing front and rear paws. Ask assistant to hold cat’s head firmly with one hand while forcing wooden ruler into cat’s throat. Flick pill down ruler with forefinger, and rub cat’s throat vigorously.

Retrieve cat from living-room curtain valance.

Carefully sweep shattered figurines from hearth, and set aside for later gluing. Remove next pill from foil wrap.

Wrap cat in beach towel, and ask assistant to lie prone on cat with cat’s head visible under assistant’s armpit. Put pill in end of paper tube you’ve made for this purpose. Then, force cat’s mouth open with pencil, and blow.

Check label to make sure pill is not lethal to humans.

Sip water to take taste away. Apply bandage to assistant’s forearm, and remove blood from carpet with soap and cold

water.

Call 911, ask fire department to retrieve cat from eucalyptus tree. Remove remaining pill from foil wrap. Tie cat’s front paws to rear paws with garden twine, and securely tie to leg of dining table. Put on heavy-duty pruning gloves.

Force cat’s mouth open with tire iron. Drop pill, previously hidden in one ounce of raw hamburger, into cat’s mouth.

Hold head vertically with nose pointed to ceiling, and pour one-half pint of water down cat’s throat, and two jiggers of whiskey down your own.

Ask assistant to drive you to emergency room. Sit quietly while doctor administers anesthetic, stitches forearm and removes pill remnants from eye. Drop off cat, along with a generous donation, at animal shelter, and adopt a goldfish.

Dear Annie: I would like to respond to “Trying To Get Granny To Shower.” All of the suggestions you offered were excellent. As an occupational therapist who works with hygiene issues with the elderly, I would add a few more.

A “tub transfer bench” allows Granny to back up to the bench, sit and, once safely seated, lift her legs into the tub.

The benches are easily adjusted and can be used in the smallest of bathrooms. Another possibility is that Granny is having difficulty reaching herself to do proper toileting hygiene, in which case, a toilet wand will help. Both the wand and the bench can be purchased at medical supply stores or through catalogs that sell home personal care products.

Finally, a flexible shower hose enables the person to control the flow of water. This can be purchased at the above cited sources or at most big box discount department or hardware stores. -- An OT in Louisville, Ky.

Winni Playhouse offering dance, writing classes MEREDITH — The Winnipesaukee Playhouse is offering two new programs this fall in different branches of the arts. Dance classes will be offered under the instruction of Tara Little beginning the week of September 16. A play-writing workshop group will be lead by Brian Halperin beginning September 17.

Two new programs will be offered, led by choreographer Tara Little. A Gilford resident, Little has become known to Playhouse audiences as the choreographer for the Winni Players’ production of Big River and the summer season production of The Fantasticks. Before that, she was a choreographer and dance captain for Riverdance, the Irish dance sensation. Little is bringing her years of experience in both Irish and musical theatre dance to the Playhouse by offering Irish Step Dance lessons for all ages along with Jazz/Broadway dance for teens and adults.

Irish Step Dance for kids (ages 4-11) will take place on Wednesdays from 6:15-7 p.m. The teen and adult Irish Step classes (age 12+) will be immediately following from 7-8 p.m. Jazz/Broadway dance is open to anyone ages 12+ and will take place on

Mondays from 6:30-7:30 p.m. Classes start the week of September 16.

Executive Director Bryan Halperin says, “there are many great dance schools in this area, offering full-year dance education. Our program is designed for people who may just want to try this out for a shorter amount of time. The commitment is only for 10 weeks allowing participants to try something new without signing up for a full year in advance.”

Halperin will also once again be offering his popular Playwriting Workshop for teens and adults. This workshop will be open to anyone in ninth grade or above. The group will guided through the process of creating a short play to be performed at the Playhouse’s Spring Playwriting Festival. Writing assignments will be given each week to do at home and class time will be used for feedback and writing exercises.Playwriting classes will be held on Tuesdays from 6-8 p.m. and also run for 10 weeks beginning on September 17.

For more information about all the classes being offered, and to register, visit www.winnipesaukeeplayhouse.org
