Moultonborough selectmen want Planning Board member out, for ‘neglect of duty & malfeasance’ he says has never been described

MOULTONBOROUGH — When the Board of Selectmen met last week it was revealed that they have asked Josiah Bartlett to tender his resignation from the Planning Board to spare him the embarrass-

ment of a public hearing.

Reading from a written statement distributed to the selectmen, Bartlett’s wife Diane disclosed that on July 25 he was summoned to a private meeting with Town Administrator Carter Terenzini and Peter Minkow, town counsel,

who informed him that the selectmen, meeting in a nonpublic session, voted to request his resignation for “neglect of duty and malfeasance in office.”

She said that her husband was told to resign by the close of business on Monday, July 29, but has yet to receive a letter to

that effect.

“After careful, prayerful deliberation and appropriate consultation,” Mrs. Bartlett told the selectmen, “neither Josh nor I see any valid reason for him to do so. In fact , we think that doing so would be see M’BOruGH page 8

Iowa man saves couple from oncoming train

AMES, Iowa (AP) — An Iowa man is being hailed as a hero for pushing an elderly couple’s stalled car from a railroad crossing with a freight train bearing down on them.

Chris Ihle, 38, said he was returning from lunch Wednesday and had just parked his motorcycle at the Wells Fargo Bank in Ames where he works when he noticed that a Pontiac Bonneville was sitting frozen in the nearby rail crossing with a train approaching.

Ihle ran over and screamed at the couple inside, 84-year-old Marion Papich and his 78-year-old wife, Jean, to move, but they didn’t.

“They just sat there and the train was coming,” the father of three told The Des Moines Register.

Ihle tried pushing the car forward, but it wouldn’t budge. So he moved to the car’s front and told Marion Papich to make sure it was in neutral. He then dug in his cowboy boots and heaved as the train bore down on them with its horn blaring and brakes screeching.

“You could hear it. I even think I could smell it,” Ihle said.

Ihle managed to push see TRAIN page 5

‘Whitey’ Bulger won’t testify, labels his trial a sham BOSTON (AP) — James “Whitey” Bulger called his racketeering trial a “sham” Friday as he revealed he would not testify in his own defense, a decision that prompted a cry of “coward!” from the widow of a man he is accused of killing.

The highly anticipated decision came after Bulger met with his lawyers behind closed doors for about 20 minutes.

After attorney J.W. Carney Jr. announced the decision, Judge Denise Casper asked

Bulger if he had consulted with his lawyers and if he was making the decision voluntarily.

With the jury out of the room, Bulger told the judge his decision was made “involuntarily.”

“I feel that I’ve been choked off from having an opportunity to give an adequate defense,” he said. “My thing is, as far as I’m concerned, I didn’t get a fair trial, and this is a sham, and do what youse want with

me. That’s it. That’s my final word.”

Bulger railed against the judge’s decision prohibiting his lawyers from using an immunity defense. Bulger has claimed he received immunity from a now-deceased federal prosecutor, Jeremiah O’Sullivan.

“For my protection of his life, in return, he promised to give me immunity,” Bulger told the judge.

Casper ruled before trial that the supsee BULGER page 8

WOBURN, Mass. (AP) — Cyanide-laced iced coffee led to the death of a man who’d just found out he wouldn’t get to testify against reputed Boston gangster James “Whitey” Bulger, authorities said Friday, but linked the man’s death to a business associate who owed him money, not to Bulger.

The body of 59-year-old Stephen Rakes of Quincy was found in the woods July 17, just a day after he learned he wouldn’t take the witness stand against Bulger — a man he’d openly despised and blamed

for seizing control of his business to use as headquarters for Boston’s Irish mob decades ago.

Bulger ran the city’s feared Winter Hill Gang before fleeing in 1994 after a corrupt FBI agent tipped him off he was about to be arrested. He was captured in California two years ago and is on trial, accused of participating in 19 murders.

But authorities believe the suspect in Rakes’ death, 69-year-old William Camuti, acted alone on the afternoon of July 16

when he lured Rakes to his death by arranging a meeting at a McDonald’s in Waltham to pitch him a fake real estate deal, Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan said.

Camuti, of Sudbury, pleaded not guilty Friday after his arrest on charges including attempted murder. Authorities said the medical examiner still is awaiting toxicology test results to determine Rakes’ exact cause of death, and prosecutors could file a see CYANIDE page 8

American economy adds only a modest 162,000 jobs in July WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. economy is steadily adding jobs — just not at a consistently strong pace.

July’s modest gain of 162,000 jobs was the smallest since March. And most of the job growth came in lower-paying industries or part-time work.

N.H. Insurance Dept. finds way to accept $5M Obamacare grant without lawmaker’s OK CONCORD (AP) — The state Insurance Department announced Friday it has found a way around Republican legislative efforts to block New Hampshire from spending a $5 million grant educating consumers about the federal health care overhaul law.

In a letter to the state Health Exchange Advisory Board, Insurance Commissioner Roger Sevigny wrote that the New Hampshire Health Plan, a quasi-government entity, is applying for the $5.4 million grant awarded to the state, which lawmakers did not include in the department’s budget.

Republicans have fought against New Hampshire implementing the law.

Sevigny said the department worked with the federal government to identify a group besides the department to receive the grant. He said the department will discuss the grant’s status with the board at its Aug. 9 meeting.

The New Hampshire Health Plan board voted last month to seek federal approval to accept the money and do the outreach once the state took the necessary steps to decline the money, Sevigny said.

As New Hampshire moves toward implementing the health care overhaul law, the federal government is deciding which insurance plans are qualified for sale in the state.

Under the law, 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 safety net programs they might qualify for. Enrollment starts Oct. 1, with coverage taking effect Jan. 1. After that,

virtually everyone in the country will be required by law to have health insurance or face fines.

Beth Roberts, chairwoman of New Hampshire Health Plan, wrote the advisory board Friday that the group will conduct “New Hampshire specific outreach and education about the marketplace, the insurance options and available financial assistance.”

She noted that the group has a long history of operating federal and state programs for the uninsured, including the state high risk pool, which provides insurance to individuals denied coverage because of their health status. The high risk pool will be phased out Jan. 1 when coverage becomes available under the new federal law.

Susan Smith, executive director of New Hampshire Voices for Health, said her group is pleased, believing a locally controlled and designed effort would provide consumers information and assistance.

The Insurance Department this week submitted its

recommendations for which plans should be offered in the new online insurance markets, or exchanges. The details and rates aren’t being made public yet, but Sevigny said he’s confident consumers will have good options when enrollment opens Oct. 1.

Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield has said it is the only company planning to offer health insurance in New Hampshire.

While the last Legislature passed a law prohibiting the state from setting up its own exchanges, Democratic Gov. Maggie Hassan decided in February to have the state partner with the federal government to manage the health plans and to provide consumer assistance. The decision by the first-term Democrat didn’t sit well with Republicans, who have blocked or slowed several efforts to implement the federal law.

The final decision on whether the plans are qualified for sale will be made by the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.

FDA links stomach bug in 2 states to produce from Mexican farm

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Food and Drug Administration says an outbreak of stomach illnesses in Iowa and Nebraska is linked to salad mix served at Olive Garden and Red Lobster restaurants in those states and supplied by a Mexican farm.

The outbreak of cyclospora infections has sickened more than 400 people in 16 states in all. The agency says it is working to determine whether the salad mix is the source of illnesses in the other 14 states.

“It is not yet clear whether the cases reported from other states are all part of the same outbreak,” the agency said in a statement. “The investigation of increased cases

of cyclosporiasis in other states continues.”

Both Olive Garden and Red Lobster are owned by Orlando-based Darden Restaurants. In a statement, Darden spokesman Mike Bernstein said the FDA’s announcement is “new information.”

“Nothing we have seen prior to this announcement gave us any reason to be concerned about the products we’ve received from this supplier,” Bernstein said.

The FDA said it traced illnesses from the restaurants in Nebraska and Iowa to Taylor Farms de Mexico, the Mexican branch of Salinas, Calif.-based Taylor Farms.

$67,000 spent to improve storm-water drainage at new LHS athletic complex

By Gail OBer

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA — After a setback of about two weeks and $67,000, School District Business Administrator Ed Emond told the Joint Building Committee yesterday that there are no more issues with the new playing fields behind the high school.

Emond said the additional money went to pay for drainage, tipping the new road to direct storm water runoff to a swale and creating an overflow dam at Bank of New Hampshire Stadium.

“Everything is really set up and we are in a good position to protect the field,” said Emond.

The drainage problems with the fields were two-fold.

Initially, the subsurface of Jim Fitzgerald Field — the primary playing field that will be covered with synthetic turf — was not absorbing water at the required rate. The cost of removing most of the material and changing the mixture to fix the drainage was the responsibility of the contractors.

Secondly, drainage from the upper field (Bobotas Field) was inadequate during heavy downpours, leading to washouts.

The Fitzgerald Field drainage issues were known before the torrential rains over the weekend before the July 4 holiday. However, the damage to the drainage system around the fields came as a complete surprise and it wasn’t until the deluge that engineers and members of the JBC realized there was a problem.

“I’m kind of disappointed with the end result that this is more of a drainage problem than we thought,” said JBC Co-Chair Bob Hamel yesterday, telling the committee that drainage they have now should have been anticipated in the original design.

Hamel went on to say he believes the problem is now solved and noted it cost the district more by having to go to an after-bid rather than including it in the original scope.

“But (the fields) will be fantastic and, if we didn’t

Theft of 75 used car batteries nets man 1 year in jail BELMONT — A local man was sentenced to 12 months in the Belknap County House of Corrections Thursday for being in possession of 75 used car batteries stolen from MetroCast Cablevision on July 17.

Dean LaPlante, 20, of 129 Lamprey Road pleaded guilty to one misdemeanor count of receiving stolen property in the 4th Circuit Court, Laconia Division yesterday. A count of breach of bail was not prosecuted.

Six months of the 12-month sentence were suspended and LaPlante was given credit for 12 days served.

LaPlante took 75 used batteries that had been stored on pallets by MetroCast and were slated to be recycled by the company that provides the cable company with its batteries, said Belmont Prosecutor David Estes.

Estes said the batteries are a lead-acid type about the size of a standard car battery and are used to power the

cable and phone line grid during outages. He said MetroCast valued each of the used batteries at about $12. A new one, he said, costs the company about $160.

According to affidavits submitted to court by Belmont Police, one of MetroCast’s neighbors heard some loud banging outside her window around 1 a.m. on July 17, looked out and saw an unfamiliar pickup.

Police questioned LaPlante and Stephen Cote, 31, of 62 Randlett Drive and Cote told them LaPlante had brought the batteries to his home because he said he couldn’t store them at his own.

Estes said the batteries were taken into evidence and are stored at the Belmont Police Station. He said Cote is also charged with one count of receiving stolen property and is scheduled for arraignment in late August.

do this, then we would have paid for it in the end,” Hamel said.

Joint Building Committee Co-Chair Joe Cormier said at a School Board meeting on July 16 that there will be no additional drainage piping work done at or around the fields located behind the high school saying the School District got an engineering and construction estimate from the contractor overseeing the project and decided to reject the additional work because it was cost-prohibitive.

At the time, Cormier said he had every confidence the erosion problems that occurred during the storms won’t recur and the work to fix the damage and the drainage — some of which is still under construction, would be fixed by the engineers and contractors at their expense.

After the JBC met in an emergency meeting on July 3, it voted to give Cormier and Hamel the authority to approve any drainage engineering changes and expenses

TRAIN from page 2 the car about 5 feet to safety, seconds before the train rumbled by, missing him by inches.

The car wasn’t scratched and the Papiches were unharmed.

Ihle tried to speak to them, but they were too shaken to talk.

A day later, the couple from nearby Slater still could hardly believe what they’d been through.

“It was really close and I’m still scared,” Jean Papich told KCCI-TV. Marion Papich said that in retrospect, he and his wife should have climbed out of the car. But his wife said that at the time, they simply froze.

“Closest call I’ve had,” he said.

After the rescue, Ihle walked back to his office, where the tellers who witnessed his heroics swarmed him.

A monstrous wall of hostility “Good fences make good neighbors,” goes the old adage. That civilizing thought refers to such friendly structures as the beautiful rock walls of New England, elegant split rails in the South, iconic whitewashed pickets of the Midwest and even privacy fences in neighborhoods all across our country.

But the neighborly adage definitely did not contemplate the 700mile, 20-foot-high, drone-patrolled, electronically monitored fence of steel and razor wire that our government has erected across our nation’s border with Mexico, from the tip of Texas to California’s Pacific Coast.

This thing is not a fence, but a monstrous wall of hostility, a deliberate affront to our Mexican neighbors.

As Sen. John McCain aptly put it in a recent debate on immigration, our Land of the Free has constructed “the most militarized border since the fall of the Berlin Wall!”

There are four big flaws with the theory that you can “secure” a border (i.e., keep people from crossing it) by throwing up a big ol’ wall.

First, it doesn’t work. A 20-foot wall quickly begets 22-foot ladders — people are innately inventive, and those determined to get in or out will find many ways to do it.

Second, walls create bigger problems than they resolve, for they are deeply divisive. Our Mexican wall is ugly, both literally and in the unmistakable message of contempt it screams nonstop at the Mexican people. It’s generating bitterness toward us — and that turns neighbors into enemies.

Third, that wall has physically ripped healthy relationships apart.

For centuries, families, friends, businesses and cities themselves were thoroughly integrated into unified communities across the artificial line drawn on a map.

Fourth, such walls are insanely expensive — so far, Washington has hurled tens of billions of dollars at this one to build, maintain and police it. Enforcement alone costs $18 billion per year. In addition, states have dumped untallied billions into it.

Can these policymakers even spell w-a-s-t-e? Yet the U.S. Senate voted overwhelmingly in June to waste another $46 billion to build 700 more miles of the hateful wall and double the number of militarized border agents. Is there no other need in our country for that money? Nothing constructive we might do with it?

But I shouldn’t be too harsh on Washington, for both Republicans and Democrats are beginning to

respond aggressively to economic needs. “It has been a tough time,” says one Washington insider, noting with relief that a new spending proposal “could help out.”

Unfortunately, he and Congress aren’t referring to your tough times or helping out with your needs. No, no — they are rushing to the aid of the multibillion-dollar military-industrial complex. The government, you see, has not been getting our nation into enough wars to satisfy the insatiable appetite that Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman and other war profiteers have for government money. But now they’ve spied a new place they can militarize with their high-tech, high-cost, razzle-dazzle weaponry: yes, that border we share with Mexico.

In recent months, these corporate predators deployed an army of lobbyists to Congress, armed with mass campaign contributions. Targeting the immigration issue, “border security!” is their battle cry. They’ve already conquered the Senate’s bipartisan immigration bill, stuffing it with $46 billion for goosed up militarization of the 2,000-mile border.

They’ve literally turned the immigration bill into a corporate honey pot. More drones! More electronic gadgetry! More agents needing more weapons, night vision goggles and other war toys!

Various corporate lobbyists put their specific wish lists directly in the Senate bill. Rather than calling generally for the purchase of certain categories of hardware, it mandates brand-name purchases. For example, the bill requires the Border Patrol to buy six airborne radar systems from Northrop at $9.3 million each and 15 Black Hawk helicopters from Sikorsky at $17 million apiece.

What we have here is the emergence of a full-fledged monster — a Border-Industrial Complex that literally will tax us with an everexpanding policy of permanent border war.

How long before they use the cry of “terrorism!” to militarize the Canadian border, too? And what after that? My guess is they’ll want to seal off those pesky antiwar radicals in places like Vermont! Ultimately, they can fence all of us in.

Or is it out?

LETTERS Don’t pave over UNH’s outdoor pool; historic charm is best asset To The Daily Sun, Recently I have received some troubling news from a dear friend in Durham about the fate of the University of New Hampshire’s outdoor pool. It saddens and perplexes me to hear that UNH is seriously considering extending the Snively arena over the majority of the existing pool. During my four years as an undergraduate student at UNH I understood the administration to be quite reasonable and hospitable in their decision making process. However, in this particular instance I think they are making an incredibly short-sighted decision.

When I accepted UNH’s offer of admission in 2009 it was not because it was the least expensive or the best in my field. I chose to attend UNH because I fell in love with its historic charm. This, in my opinion, is the most valuable asset UNH has to offer its perspective students. I am baffled at how easily UNH overlooks its greatest asset and how eager they are to swap one of its most precious treasures — the pool — for large gyms or hockey arenas — things that may bring in more revenue tomorrow, but in the long run, will dilute the desirability and beauty of the school — making it less attractive to year-round students in the competitive market.

I imagine UNH will offer to rebuild a new pool or preserve half of it, leaving merely a shaded puddle, but the

current pool is spectacular in its natural and historic state — with smooth cement walls that descend into deep waters with fun paintings along the floor. It is Durham’s refreshing and community-building gem.

Perhaps it would be wiser to extend the Snively arena toward the alumni center instead, or build it up? Many students often complain about the remote location of Snively — maybe it would be wiser to create another site at the other end of campus?

I’ve heard rumors that UNH believes it is unsafe, but from what I’ve read the pool passes its health and safety tests regularly. If UNH wanted to improve the cleanliness of the pool from its already satisfactory state I’m sure one of the brilliant engineers UNH educates or employs could devise a way to improve the mechanics of it while preserving and saving the current pool and its surrounding environment.

I cannot imagine a UNH summer without it and I hope future UNH students will be allowed to enjoy the pool the way I did. I am optimistic that UNH will be able to see how valuable the pool is and do what’s best for the UNH Durham community — preserve and save the current pool!

We GI’s would sleep 110 (without fans) in that same size space To The Daily Sun, I am writing this letter in reference to the “Go to jail” article in the July 26 Sun. A 9 percent tax increase in the county budget and millions for a new Jail. No one in the private sector gets a 9 percent raise, People are still losing homes, businesses are still closing.

Any politicians who are for this are either Democrat, RINO or represents a special interest not the taxpayers of Belknap County.

The photo on the front page of the

House of Corrections reminds me of my military barracks where we had double racks in about the same space for 110 military personal; we had no A/C, no fans, you just sucked it up. So invest in military style double racks and get three times the number of inmates in the same space.

LETTERS Obama will give the poor free cable & they’ll give him their rights

Common Core education standards are rotten to the very core

To The Daily Sun, Let’s take a look at the top 10 Poorest Cities in America, each having a population of over 250,000. Next, let’s look at the percent of people living below the poverty level within these cities. Please note the last time a Republican Mayor was elected in these cities.

Number one on the top 10 list is Detroit, MI with 32.5 percent living below the poverty level and they haven’t elected a Republican mayor since 1961; followed by Buffalo, NY with 29.9 percent and it hasn’t elected a Republican since 1954. Cincinnati, OH, at 27.8 percent, hasn’t elected a Republican since 1984; Cleveland, OH, 27.0 percent, hasn’t elected a Republican since 1989; Miami, FL 26.9 percent, has never had a Republican mayor; St. Louis, MO, 26.8 percent, hasn’t elected a Republican since 1949; El Paso, TX 26.4 percent has never had a Republican mayor; Milwaukee, WI, 26.2 percent, hasn’t elected a Republican since 1908; Philadelphia, PA, 25.1 percent, hasn’t elected a Republican since 1952 and Newark, NJ, 24.2 percent, hasn’t elected a Republican since 1907.

Einstein once said, “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results”.

Before and after the Civil War the slave owners were Democrats and the slave states were the Democrat states.

In the early 1960s, President Johnson (D) initiated the War on Poverty and the entitlement programs were in full swing. The Democrats saw an opportunity to create a fixed voting base by encouraging the lower socioeconomic peoples, through entitlements, to move into the large cities. (This was before Agenda 21, but the same idea.)

These cities built massive low cost housing projects, which became Ghettos. These large cities could afford the entitlement programs because of their large tax-paying base.

Next, the Democrats convinced the city unions to vote Democrat by awarding them generous contracts and retirement programs. The Democrats with their tax and spend mantra had their voting blocks in place and had all the answers to the social problems; that is until the taxpaying businesses that were being over taxed and over regulated moved overseas.

After the exodus of the tax base, what was left became known as Uncle Sam’s Plantations. With no jobs, no

To The Daily Sun, How many parents out there are aware of the new “Common Core” curriculum being foisted upon our teachers and children in 46 states, including New Hampshire. Recently, a good friend of mine from Danbury asked me if I was familiar with it. I was not. I saw an article about it in my grandchildren’s monthly Winnisquam Middle School newsletter. If you’re not familiar with our government’s use of Orwellian speak, then it will sound like a wonderful program to help our children catch up with nations who have surpassed us academically. I’ve spent the past few weeks researching Common Core and the more I have learned about it, the more it appears to be rotten to the core.

Dean Kalahar, an economics teacher, asserts that regarding it’s real content, “if articulated openly would never be taken seriously”. David Coleman, a leading architect of this program, has never been a classroom teacher and believes that education should be best utilized as the “engine of social justice”. It appears that President Obama and Education Secretary Arne Duncan have lied to school teachers and administrators by claiming the standards were developed by the states and voluntarily adopted.

Seems it was actually developed by an organization called Achieve and the National Governors Association and funded by the Gates Foundation with 173 million dollars.

Columnist and former educator, Everett Piper has also researched this program and found it lacking in (1) academic freedom; (2) intellectual integrity; (3) liberty and liberation. Yet, conversely, full of group think, political correctness and social engineering.

Common Core is being sold as a “state-led initiative” since federal law prohibits the U.S. Department of Education from prescribing any curriculum. From everything I’ve read, nothing could be further from the truth. The Marietta Times sums it up nicely: “Other than dangling a little green in front of cash-strapped states, offering No Child Left Behind waivers, threatening to hold Title I funds, forcing the states to choose from among one and only one common set of educational standards in order to qualify for federal money, crafting standards behind closed doors,

proper schooling, no prospects and too poor to move out of the ghettos, the poor and ignorant were trapped and forced to rely on government assistants. Democrats put the poor in the ghettos and keep them there by convincing them they were victimized by the upper class society and Republicans. So the poor, disillusioned, ignorant, ghetto dweller continues to vote Democrat. But what the Democrats failed to tell their constituents is that with $17 trillion in debt, the government is going the same way of Detroit.

Obama must collapse the dollar within the next three years. This is when Obama’s ultimate plan takes effect. With millions of people depending on entitlements and then suddenly finding themselves without the basic necessities including food Obama comes to the rescue.

Empty stomachs equal’s food riots followed by marshal law curfew regulations, controls, restrictions, confiscation of guns and private food supplies

by Obama’s Homeland Security army.

He suspends the Constitution and appoints himself dictator. In actually if he provides the food the people they will call for the Constitution to be abolished and insist on Obama (their savior) to take complete control.

Obama will give the poor free food and free cable TV so they can watch American Idol at which time the indigents will gladly give up their rights.

It wasn’t long after Rome provided the masses with free bread and entertainment / games in the coliseum/ amphitheater that the republic went down the tubes and soon after that some of the spectators became reluctant participates in the games.

Remember this, Obama is a Muslim and as such Sharia Law will become the law of the land. So you can look forward to public floggings, stonings and executions (beheading) simply for being gay, Christen or Jewish.

If you find this far-fetched, read what is happening in Egypt under the Muslim Brotherhood. Oh, and for the edification of Sun’s readers, the Muslim Brotherhood has visited the White House more times than the past director of the IRS. Another little known fact is that when the Muslim Brotherhood visits the White House all the pictures of the past presidents are covered up but as we all know cover ups in the White House are a common occurrence.

Gilmanton School Class of 2013 donated $100 to food pantry To The Daily Sun, The Gilmanton Community Church Food Pantry Committee would like to say a big THANK YOU to the Class of 2013 from the Gilmanton School.

Your recent $100 donation to the food pantry is greatly appreciated. What a wonderful thing for your class to do for those folks in your home town who are in need of some assistance. Good luck at Gilford or wherever you are attending high school this fall.

We would also like to thank the Gilmanton Youth Group for giving us a helping hand with the vegetable garden at the pantry. Raelynn Cottrell and a wonderful group of about eight young people were able to come down on a beautiful Sunday afternoon and give us a helping hand with the planting. Your hard work was greatly appreciated, thank you.

and now determining how and when teachers will be evaluated, the federal government is not at all involved in Common Core. “Really”. Since this is a “the end justifies the means” social Utopian ideal, it is perfectly okay to coerce teachers while keeping them in the dark, dumb-down students using a one-size-fits-all plan and treat parents like dumb and dumber. After all, it is “the collective” that must bring up our children properly rather than their own parents. Oh, and this just in, the program is terribly unfunded so get ready for the tax man.

Betty Orweller, a certified teacher of some 45 years of experience concludes that much of the teaching of Common Core includes psychological conditioning for predetermined outcomes. Or as she puts it, “outcome-based education philosophy on steroids, foisted on gullible educators and citizenry”. She says students are being trained for a “planned global economy who will work for the ‘collective’ under control of a socialist elite”.

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, perhaps it is time to play connect the dots. Power, money, coercion and bribery while using our money to subvert the democratic process to further an agenda for a global one-world government. And you thought Agenda 21 was just some crazy conspiracy notion conjured up by some wild-eyed, sovereign seeking, constitutional conservatives. Here it is, alive and well right under our noses and in front of our children’s faces. Paradoxical progressives claim this is part of a “race to the top” for our youth when in reality, it seems to be more akin to watered down, internationally, uncompetitive standards which will leave young adults completely detached from their own nation’s great history and culture, according to historian David Barton. Oh, and by the way, it appears as though Common Core’s nationwide student tracking system will allow a students’ academic record to be shared with just about anyone under a private database called “inBloom”.

We’ve gotta be blooming idiots to sit still for this totalitarian takeover of our educational system because this looms as a potential dagger through the heart of our American culture and education.

Sarah Palin was right about death panels; let me tell you a story To The Daily Sun, I had an eye opening experience this past July 4th I thought I would relate to the readers of The Daily Sun. On that day, at a barbecue at a friend’s house I met a 60 year old man whose medication has been taken off the list of medications covered by his insurance. He needs this medication to stay alive. Before he was 60 his insurance paid for it. But now that he is 60, under the rules of Obamacare they are not allowed to pay for it anymore. Now he and his wife have to wait every month until he’s close to death and rush him to the emergency room where he gets treated because at the emergency room they have to

So Sarah Palin was right about the death panels. And that doesn’t even touch on what this plan is going to do to the already dwindling job market.

Anyway, that’s not even the interesting part. I was upset about this, so I decided to write to Annie Kuster, my representative in Congress and ask her to please vote to defund Obamacare. I got two form letters back from Annie.

One was a letter thanking me for my e-mail and another was a letter thanking me for supporting her efforts to keep student interest rates down.

So now I know when I write to Congress no one read my e-mails and no one cares what I think. I guess I suspected that already, but now I know see next page

2 Weirs Beach businesses hit by burglars

LACONIA — Police are investigating a burglary at the Winnipesaukee Pier that occurred sometime between midnight and 6 a.m. Friday morning.

Police said an alarm sound at the restaurant at 2 a.m. and two officers went to investigate. They called the person listed as someone who can respond to an alarm but said the person declined to come down.

Officer said they checked the building to make sure no one was in the building and all the doors and win-

dows were secured.

Police said an undisclosed amount of cash and change was taken.

Laconia Police logs also recorded a second burglary at the Weirs Beach Water Slide that was reported to them at 9:33 a.m. Friday morning.

Police said they do not know if the two burglaries are related.

Anyone with any information about either burglaries is asked to call the Laconia Police at 524-5252 or the Greater Laconia Crime Line at 524-1717.

BULGER from page 2 posed immunity was not a legal defense to crimes including murder.

“I understand, sir, if you disagree with it,” Casper replied.

Family members of Bulger’s alleged murder victims looked dejected over his decision not to take the stand.

Patricia Donahue, the widow of one alleged victim, yelled “you’re a coward!” while Bulger was speaking.

“If you think you had an unfair trial, then get up there and tell all,” she said outside the courtroom afterward. “I am so disappointed in this whole trial.

I thought that at least he would be man enough to get up there.”

Bulger, 83, is on trial in a broad racketeering indictment that accuses him of participating in 19 murders in the 1970s and ‘80s as leader of the Winter Hill Gang. He has pleaded not guilty.

He fled Boston in 1994 and was one of the nation’s most wanted fugitives until he was captured in Santa Monica, Calif., in 2011.

O’Sullivan, who died in 2009, headed the New England Organized Crime Strike Force and was known for his aggressive pursuit of cases against local Mafia leaders, Bulger’s rivals.

Outside the courthouse, Carney said Bulger was describing an agreement

he claims he had with O’Sullivan under which “in return for assuring that Jeremiah O’Sullivan would not be killed, O’Sullivan promised him that he would not be prosecuted for as long as O’Sullivan was head of the strike force.”

Carney did not elaborate, but Bulger seemed to be implying that O’Sullivan’s life was in danger because of his pursuit of the Mafia.

After Bulger made his remarks, the defense rested its case.

Prosecutors and Bulger’s lawyers are scheduled to make their closing arguments to the jury Monday. The jury is expected to begin deliberations Tuesday.

Earlier Friday, former Bulger hit man John Martorano was called as a witness by Bulger’s lawyers. Martorano had spent days on the witness stand earlier in the trial, describing what he said was Bulger’s role in a string of murders, including some he orchestrated, others he helped with and some he committed himself.

Bulger’s lawyers called Martorano to challenge testimony by Bulger’s former partner, Stephen “The Rifleman” Flemmi, about the killing of Flemmi’s girlfriend Debra Davis.

Flemmi had said he watched as Bulger strangled Davis.

When pressed by Bulger’s attorney Friday, Martorano acknowledged that Flemmi had once told him he killed Davis.

“He said it was an accident — he strangled her,” Martorano said, describing a telephone call he had with Flemmi in 1981 after Davis disappeared. At the time, Martorano was a fugitive hiding in Florida.

Local woman spearheads raising of $13k to build New Hampton Fitness Trail By michAel Kitch

NEW HAMPTON — In January, Pat Schlesinger, moved by concern at the incidence of childhood obesity and for the health of senior citizens, approached the Board of Selectmen about blazing a fitness trail financed solely by private contributions.

Given a green light, Schlesinger convened a citizens committee and the Selectboard established an expendable trust fund. Last week, the board accepted more than $13,000 raised by the committee and authorized the purchase of the 20 fitness stations with an eye to opening the trail and authorized the purchase of the stations with an eye to opening the trail by autumn.

The trail, a loop of of a little more than half-a-mile, will meander through 99.4 wooded acres, beginning near the foot of Fire House Lane and leading to an overlook on the Pemigewasset River before circling back to its starting point. The fitness stations, each designed to performance a particular exercise, will range along the trail at appropriate intervals. The stations have been ordered at a cost $10,070, and are expected to be delivered in four to six weeks. A second hiking loop of more than a mile, con-

necting with the fitness trail, is also planned for the site.

Town Administrator Barbara Lucas said that in the meantime Shaun Lagueux, professional forester, will begin marking the trail and locating the stations in anticipation of cutting the trail. Already many have volunteered to assist with the construction of the trail.

So far the committee has raised $13,080, just shy of its initial goal of $13,500, with the aim of collecting at least $16,000 to fund future improvements and maintenance. Schlesinger said that the generosity of both individual and corporate donors, along with offers of in kind contributions, has been impressive. Lucas said that Alex Ray of the Common Man Restaurants has donated $500 and offered to match contributions dollar-for-dollar up to another $500.

“People tell me they love the project,” said Schlesinger, “but, they ask ‘how are we going to get across Route 104?’ When I tell them ‘walk,’” she continued “they say ‘oh, no we need a bridge to go over it.’ Now they’re thinking big!.”

Contributions can be made to the New Hampton Nature-Fitness Trail and sent to the Trustees of the Trust Fund at the Town Office, 6 Pinnacle Hill Road, New Hampton, NH 03256.

M’BOROUGH from page one neglecting a duty to those he represents.”

After listening to Mrs.. Bartlett, Russ Wakefield, chairman of the board, asked Terenzini why, when he and Minkow met with Bartlett, he was not offered a more “elaborate explanation.” Terenzini replied that Mrs. Bartlett’s remarks “don’t in my opinion reflect what happened” and that “more specificity” was provided, but declined to comment further saying he was “truly uncomfortable” discussing the matter at a public meeting.

Bartlett himself then spoke, insisting “I don’t know what specific incident we’re talking about. Do I not get the courtesy of at least an explanation of which malfeasance I’m accused of and which dereliction of duty I’m accused of?” he asked.

“He had it, he responded to it and it was conveyed to this board,” Terenzini countered, adding that the particulars would be spelt out in a letter in adequate time to prepare for the public

hearing. When Bartlett said again he could not recall any specifics from their meeting, Terenzini repeated that he was “uncomfortable” discussing the details of a conversation at which town counsel was present.

Planning Board member Paul Punturieri noted that the law requires the Selectboard to hold a public hearing to dismiss an elected official and suggested the board must have already made its decision. Wakefield answered that the purpose of the hearing was to determine if there is sufficient cause to remove someone from office.

Bartlett said that since the selectmen directed Ternzini and Minkow to meet with him and ask him to resign, it appeared the board had made its decision. “True?” he asked. “No. It’s not true,” Wakefield replied. “Then why would you ask me to resign?”

Bartlett asked.

He expressed concern with how the matter was being handled and repeated “I see absolutely no reason to resign.

“I’m eager to have a public hearing.”

CYANIDE from page 2 murder charge later.

Authorities say Camuti bought two iced coffees and added two teaspoons of potassium cyanide to the one he gave to Rakes to drink. Investigators found out later that Camuti had made inquiries online about buying cyanide, Ryan said.

She said Rakes drank the poisoned drink and Camuti drove him around for hours before dumping his body in Lincoln, outside Boston between Lexington and Concord.

The prosecutor said Camuti and Rakes were business associates who had known each other for years and had done multiple deals. She said Camuti also owed Rakes a significant amount of money.

Camuti also faces charges of misleading police and unlawfully disposing of human remains. A judge ordered him held without bail until a Tuesday hearing, and his attorney didn’t return a message.

Surveillance video from the federal courthouse where Bulger is being tried showed Rakes leaving July 16 after attending the trial, something he’d been doing every day, Ryan said.

She said Rakes was wearing the same clothing when found dead the next day without a wallet, identification, keys or a cellphone. There was no sign of trauma to his body and authorities said following his autopsy that they’d have to await test results before they could say more about how he died.

Ceremony marks progress in restoration of Belmont’s Province Road Meeting House

By RogeR Amsden

BELMONT — A ceremony at the The Province Road Meeting House Thursday morning marked the completion of exterior renovations to the historic structure, built in 1792 and by far the oldest church in town.

Built when Belmont was still a part of Gilmanton (the township was separated by an act of the Legislature in 1859 and adopted the name Belmont in 1869), the church also served as the site of a town meeting in 1796.

Wallace Rhodes, president of the Belmont Historical Society, said that the meeting house was constructed to serve the needs of the northern part of Gilmanton, a huge town at that time which extended all the way from Barnstead to the Weirs, around the same time that another meetinghouse was built on Gunstock Hill in Gilford.

He said that the Province Road Meetinghouse was used by residents of Upper Gilmanton, and what would later become Laconia, until a meeting house was constructed there in 1815.

As was the style of churches then, it was fitted with box pews and contained a gallery on three sides and a high pulpit. The church was cut down to one story in 1836 and in 1854 the pulpit was rebuilt. Over the years the church served about 75 families, but by 1981 the Third Free Will Baptist Meetinghouse Society of Upper Gilmanton had dwindled to three members, who turned the building over to the Belmont Historical Society in 1981.

Rhodes recalled that when he first toured the building in 1968 he noticed

that the roof was in poor condition and that was indeed one of the major challenges faced by the Historical Society once it took over the building.

He said that work was completed on the exterior renovations to the building last fall, a $117,000 project which was helped by a $50,000 grant from the state’s Land and Community Heritage Investment Program (LCHIP) and that the society is now looking to raise at least $50,000 to complete interior renovations, which will allow the group to use it for meetings and rent it to community groups.

Amy Dixon, historic resource specialist with LCHIP, presented a plaque to Rhodes and the historical society for their efforts in restoring the meetinghouse.

She noted that LCHIP in 2007 had funded a building assessment study which led to the restoration project.

Also unveiled at the ceremony was a new sign for the building and a plaque which will be placed inside the building in memory of Meredith Bergeron, who worked to help preserve the meeting house and who died in an automobile crash in Meredith in March at the age of 22.

Linda Frawley of the Belmont Heritage Commission said a garden at the Meeting House will be named in Bergeron’s honor. Her parents, Richard and Jean Bergeron, were present for the ceremony.

The Bergerons were also presented with an American flag, courtesy of U.S. Senator Kelly Ayotte, by Kelly Hayes of Belmont Girl Scout Troop #21532, which had worked on many beautification projects at the meeting house.

JOBS from page 2 cautious about hiring.

The report is bound to be a key factor in the Federal Reserve’s decision on whether to slow its bond purchases in September, as many economists have predicted it will do. Some think July’s weaker hiring could make the Fed hold off on any pullback in its bond buying, which has helped keep long-

term borrowing costs down.

Friday’s report said employers added a combined 26,000 fewer jobs in May and June than the government had previously estimated. Americans also worked fewer hours in July, and their average pay dipped.

For the year, job growth has remained steady. The economy has see next page

DOGS from page one and Dunleavy asked for “Logan” and “Sable” to join the team. Although the dogs worked in more than half-a-dozen coastal towns in New Hampshire and Maine last year, this was their first job on a freshwater lake in New England.

Nariman Behravesh, chief economist at IHS Global Insight, called the employment report “slightly negative,” in part because job growth for May and June was revised down.

Scott Anderson, chief economist at Bank of the West, said it showed “a mixed labor market picture of continued improvement but at a still frustratingly slow pace.”

ued help from the Fed. Beth Ann Bovino, senior economist at Standard & Poor’s, said she thinks the Fed will delay any slowdown in its $85 billion a month in bond purchases.

“September seems very unlikely now,” she says. “I’m wondering if December is still in the cards.”

Still, it’s possible that the lower unemployment rate, along with the hiring gains over the past year, could convince the Fed that the job market is strengthening consistently.

Job growth has topped 140,000 each month for nearly a year, and unemployment has steadily declined.

Evan Rahn (Wheaton) pitched 7 and 2/3 innings for Laconia, scattering 8 hits and giving up just one earned run. He was relieved by Jacob Moody, who took the loss.

Moody got two outs in the ninth before Robert Wayman reached on a throwing error by shortstop Carter White (U Memphis), who is primarily a catcher, and Nate LaPointe scored the go-ahead run from second base. Troy Black then doubled home the second run of the inning and an error on left fielder Taylor Drake (McNeese St.) allowed the third run to score.

Laconia managed just 5 hits. Right fielder Eddie Macaluso (listed on the roster as a pitcher) had 2 hits and drove in a run.

All Star second baseman Joe Torres (Iona) scored Laconia’s first run a a fielders choice in the fourth.

Third baseman Nick Freeberger (Hartford CC) led off the seventh inning with a single and later scored on a single by Macaluso.

BOSTON (AP) — Cody Ross capped his four-hit return to Fenway Park with a tie-breaking homer that gave the Arizona Diamondbacks a 7-6 win over the Boston Red Sox on Friday night.

Ross, Boston’s regular right fielder last season, drove in three runs, doubled twice and singled once.

His big hit came with the score tied at 6 when he led off the seventh inning against Pedro Beato (1-1) with his seventh homer of the year.

In his only season with the Red Sox, Ross hit .267 with 22 homers and 81 RBIs last year. But they let him leave as a free agent and signed Shane Victorino to take his spot in right.

On Friday, he doubled in the first then singled in a run in the third, cutting Boston’s lead to 4-3. He hit another RBI double in the three-run fifth when Arizona went ahead 6-4. He finished his night by grounding out in the ninth.

Brad Ziegler allowed singles to Stephen Drew and

Jacoby Ellsbury in the ninth but got his sixth save in six chances by retiring the last two batters.

The Red Sox had tied the game 6-6 in the sixth on Drew’s two-run homer, his eighth of the year, after a single by Mike Napoli.

Randall Delgado (4-3) got the win despite his worst performance of the season. He entered the game with a shutout streak of 14 2-3 innings after tossing the first shutout and complete game of his career in his last start, a 10-0 win over San Diego.

But he got out of trouble in the third when the Red Sox loaded the bases with one out but didn’t score.

Boston’s Jon Lester also struggled after a solid stretch in which he posted a 2.29 ERA in his previous three starts. In his last start before Friday, he pitched seven scoreless innings in a 5-0 win at Baltimore. But against the Diamondbacks he allowed six runs and 11 hits in a season-low 4 1-3 innings.

LACONIA — Needing a win or at the very least some good luck to clinch a NECBL Eastern Division playoff spot on the last night of the regular season, the Mustangs got neither. The combination of Friday’s 5-2 loss to Sanford at Robbie Mills Field and a 5-1 Mystic win over Plymouth (Mass.) secured a third place finish for the Connecticut team and a fourth place tie between Laconia and Sanford.

Mystic finished at 22-22, while the Muskrats and the Mainers deadlocked at 21-23.

A one game play-in game is now necessary and it will be played Saturday night in Sanford at 6:30.

The winner of the Laconia-Sanford game will open a best of three, first round playoff series at division winner Newport (30-14) on Sunday. Second place Ocean State (24-20) will host Mystic in the other Eastern Division first round series.

The second game in each series will be played on Monday night on the home field of the lower seeded team. Scores and other information about game times will be available online at www.necbl.com.

Laconia took a 2-1 lead into the eighth inning

Much Ado About Nothing coming to Sandwich Fairgrounds starting August 9 SANDWICH — It’s hard to say if the audience will be more thrilled with Advice To The Players sparkling presentation of Much Ado About Nothing or by the elegant seats they get to watch it from.

With brand new stadium seats, theatre–goers are guaranteed a comfy, back-supported afternoon at The Fairgrounds Stage. “We knew we had to make our patrons more comfortable,” says Executive Director Rebecca Boyden. “We were thinking of putting cushions on the bleacher planks, but when one of our supporters offered us a donation for seats with backs, we went with the stadium seats”.

Also new this summer, the company is offering free admission to children ages 12 and under. This youth ticket program is made possible by a grant from the Alfred Quimby Trust.

August Shakespeare at the Fairgrounds Stage has been a tradition since 2002, when ATTP presented a lyrical production of As You Like It. This summer’s presentation promises to be full of love and laughter when Don Pedro and his men come to visit the Italian summer estate of the kind Leonato and his eligible daughter, Hero. Mischief is lurking, however, in the person of the jealous brother, Don John, who preys on the youthful fears and vulnerability of young Claudio. At the center of it all, is the playful and profound love affair of Beatrice and Benedick, who are “too wise to woo peaceably”. With earnest

I was thinking about some old English proverbs about real estate. You know, sayings like “a man’s home is his castle,” “a house is not a home”, “home is where the heart is,” and the ever popular; “there’s no place like home.” Looking at a list of proverbs I realized that most of them applied to real estate and wondered whether a real estate agent was sitting in his thatched hut back in the 16th century making these things up. I could see Ye Olde Estate Agent John Bridges in 1587 writing “If they pay a penie or two pence more for the reddinesse of them..let them looke to that, a foole and his money is soone parted.”

Anyway, I can apply most of these proverbs to real estate on a daily basis. For example, I know the “customer is always right” even when he is dead wrong. And, I can show a customer the perfect home knowing that they might not buy it because “you can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink.”

But “there is an exception to every rule” and every now and then there is a buyer that feels “there is no time like the present” to make an offer knowing that “the pen is mightier than the sword” and that “it’s the early bird that catches the worm.”

Even then it’s tough to get a buyer to “put his best foot forward” and make a good, solid offer.

Buyers often think that “money talks” not realizing his talking may only be a whisper to the seller.

While the buyer knows that “every man has his price,” his perception of what that is may be far different than that of seller.

I have learned that you “can’t judge a book by

its cover” because even the most poorly dressed buyer can have the wherewithal to buy whatever home he wants. But “first impressions are the most lasting” and that clearly applies to people as well as the houses. And while “clothes don’t make the man” a clean and well staged home might make a sale...

Many home sellers often learn the hard way that “a bird in hand is worth two in the bush” after declining a deal that didn’t quite meet their expectations in hopes of receiving another. “Opportunity never knocks twice on any man’s door,” or at least very rarely... That brings me to a saying that is probably not an Olde English proverb at all, but one worthy of note; “The first offer you receive is usually the best.”

The old saying “let the buyer beware” spawned the home inspection industry and while “no news is good news” is great in many industries, it is not necessarily in ours. It is also true that “good fences make good neighbors” and a “little knowledge is a dangerous thing” especially in a real estate transaction. But, the overriding, most common, and truthful proverb in real estate is this; “the husband is always the last to know.” Any agent that learns that upfront will be very successful.

Cumberland Road in Gilford closed due to culvert repair work

GILFORD —Due to a heavy rain event on Monday, July 22 and into Tuesday, July 23,a major culvert that crosses Cumberland Road at the Route 11 end was damaged and consequently is not allowing water to pass through. The town is utilizing this years’ road contractor, Wolcott Construction of Gilmanton and Busby Construction of Atkinson to facilitate repairs.

As of today, the road is closed to traffic and signage is in place to help direct the public around this area safely. The

public can follow the detour signs travelling through Gunstock Acres, to and from Route 11.

It is expected that repairs will take approximately two weeks to complete before the road is again open to traffic. Drivers are asked to observe due caution when travelling in this area due to construction equipment in and around the job site.

Call Gilford Public Works at 5274778 with any questions or concerns, or visit the Town’s website to follow the project’s progress.

Donations sought to help paint the Ashland Railroad Station Museum

ASHLAND — The Ashland Historical Society is raising money to paint the exterior and to make repairs to the Ashland Railroad Station Museum.

Last painted fifteen years ago during its restoration, the station is now in desperate need of repainting.

The deteriorating paint gives visitors

a poor impression of the Museum, and a fresh coat is needed to protect the building. The Society hopes to raise $5,000 for the painting and minor repairs. Donations can be sent to the Ashland Historical Society at PO Box 175, Ashland NH 03217.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Dear Annie: I have been married for 25 years to a husband who provides well for his family. We are now empty nesters. However, my husband feels he has to be a social butterfly with everyone on the golf course or in a bar.

When he drinks, he doesn’t know when enough is enough, and it leads to major fighting and stress in our marriage. He feels that because he doesn’t physically touch me, he is not abusive in any way. But he is mentally and emotionally hurtful.

All of his friends think he is such a nice guy. But his friends have plenty of affairs, and some are on their third or fourth marriages. Although my husband says he has never had an affair, it is hard to believe him when he takes in so much alcohol with his cheating friends.

How do I convince him that his marriage is more important than the social partying? We have attempted counseling, but he manipulates the conversation to the point where I am the only one with an issue and he is a perfectly good guy. Do I continue to worry myself sick, or do I push for counseling again even though it doesn’t do any good? I don’t want a divorce, but I also cannot continue to let him do whatever he pleases while I sit home getting worked up about it. -- Hurt and Alone Dear Hurt: We think there is a disconnect between your expectations and your reality. Presumably, your husband has been a social drinker with the same types of friends for 25 years of marriage. Without children around to occupy your time and thoughts, you seem to be more focused on your husband’s shortcomings.

If you think he’s cheating, go back for counseling, either with him or without him, and gain some perspective on your choices. If he is constantly drunk, cannot function or becomes belligerent toward you, contact Al-Anon (al-anon.alateen.

org). But if your problem is that he seems to be having fun while you are sitting at home fretting, we strongly urge you to get involved in activities that interest you, make some new friends and live your life the way you want it to be.

Dear Annie: My daughter is a bridesmaid for a sorority sister’s fall wedding. She bought her dress, and the bridal shower is planned.

The bride’s younger sister is her maid of honor. Since she is under 21, she will not be able to get into bars. So the bride decided she wants to go out of state for the bachelorette party for two days. The cost is $350 per person, but it doesn’t include meals or gasoline for the 11-hour car trip that no one has offered to drive yet.

Needless to say, this is way over her budget, but my daughter feels she has no alternative. I’ve heard that other bridesmaids also feel this is excessive but won’t speak up at this late date. Isn’t this asking a lot? Are there no limitations to expenses once you agree to be in the wedding party? -- Not Made Out of Money in Maryland Dear Maryland: Brides have been known to go overboard with their financial demands on attendants. Your daughter should have spoken up early on. Now, her choice is to pay up, back out of the bachelorette party or back out of the obligation to stand up altogether, allowing the bride to choose someone more eager to part with the money. Once she speaks up, the others may, too.

Dear Annie: I read the complaint from “Frustrated,” the woman whose friend does not drive. In our area, transportation services are offered at low cost. The services in the Los Angeles area are Dial a Ride and Access. Both are great.

“Frustrated” can then offer her driving service on her terms.

It also will give her friend the feeling of independence. -- Been There in California

Get Fuzzy

hands.” Control freaks can’t do it. You can, though -- and you should try. Because to step aside, watch and learn for a while will ultimately help your position.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Just because you can recognize and identify a mistake doesn’t mean you won’t make it again. The key is in finding something much better to take that mistake’s time slot.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Fun is not frivolous; it is generous. When you create fun times with your friends, you are also treating them to beautiful memories they may revel in later -- the gift that keeps giving.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Anyone who says, “Don’t tell” to you today should really be saying, “Don’t do it” to themselves.

If they don’t want anyone to know, it’s probably wrong. Avoid collusion.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Aug. 3). Moral issues and long-term goals will be on your mind as you head into this year. Your plans coincide neatly with those of another and together you’ll take on challenges you never would have been able to tackle alone.

December and February bring funding.

House renovation or a move is featured in April. Capricorn and Sagittarius adore you.

Your lucky numbers are: 5, 34, 14, 37 and 11.

by Chad Carpenter

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Just because the world is round doesn’t mean it has no point. Wherever you go you’ll encounter purpose and meaning. You’ll be a different person at the end of the day than you were at the start of it.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The grounded people will end up allowing the flighty people to be even less concerned about earthly matters. The question is, are you the dreamer or the doer today?

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Be compassionate with your privileged friends. It is the hardest for people who have an easy life to be good and do the right thing. Exceptional character is formed through trial and tribulation.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). When the old plan won’t work, the old pattern is no longer effective and the old you feels like a dry husk that you’re peeling out of, the only choice is to transform. The time has come for metamorphosis.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). To try and move an immovable object is foolish. Success depends on your ability to correctly identify the mobile and immobile parts of the problem. Hint: Usually the changeable parts are your own attitudes and intentions.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Those who don’t appreciate what they have either have things that are totally mismatched to their personalities or are the type that will never appreciate anything. Find out which one it is before getting involved.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). People only learn good habits by seeing them. You may become frustrated by someone’s behavior.

Consider where this person is coming from.

Gently get on his or her side -- from that position you’ll have more influence.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Environments have a way of bringing out the best or worst in a person. There’s a science to this.

You know yourself well and have a good idea how different environments are likely to affect you, so wherever you go, go mindfully.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). It can be very liberating to say, “This is out of my

Yesterday’s Answer

Page 22 — THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Saturday, August 3, 2013

––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Saturday, Aug. 3, the 215th day of 2013. There are 150 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On August 3, 1863, the first thoroughbred horse races took place at the Saratoga Race Course in Saratoga Springs, N.Y. On this date: In 1492, Christopher Columbus set sail from Palos, Spain, on a voyage that took him to the present-day Americas.

In 1807, former Vice President Aaron Burr went on trial before a federal court in Richmond, Va., charged with treason. (He was acquitted less than a month later.)

In 1914, Germany declared war on France at the onset of World War I. In 1936, Jesse Owens of the United States won the first of his four gold medals at the Berlin Olympics as he took the 100-meter sprint.

In 1943, Gen. George S. Patton slapped a private at an army hospital in Sicily, accusing him of cowardice. (Patton was later ordered by Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower to apologize for this and a second, similar episode.)

In 1949, the National Basketball Association was formed as a merger of the Basketball Association of America and the National Basketball League.

In 1958, the nuclear-powered submarine USS Nautilus became the first vessel to cross the North Pole underwater.

In 1966, comedian Lenny Bruce, 40, was found dead in his Los Angeles home.

In 1972, the U.S. Senate ratified the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty between the United States and the Soviet Union. (The U.S. unilaterally withdrew from the treaty in 2002.)

In 1981, U.S. air traffic controllers went on strike, despite a warning from President Ronald Reagan they would be fired, which they were.

In 1988, the Soviet Union released Mathias Rust (muh-TEE’-uhs rust), the young West German pilot who had landed a light plane near Moscow’s Red Square in May 1987.

In 1993, the Senate voted 96-3 to confirm U.S. Supreme Court nominee Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

Ten years ago: The Episcopal Church’s House of Deputies further paved the way for the Rev. V. Gene Robinson to become the church’s first openly gay elected bishop, approving him on a 128-63 vote.

Five years ago: Nobel Prize-winning Russian author Alexander Solzhenitsyn died near Moscow at age 89. Al-Qaida confirmed the death of a top commander in a U.S. airstrike; he was accused of training the suicide bombers who’d killed 17 American sailors on the USS Cole in 2000.

One year ago: The U.N. General Assembly overwhelmingly denounced Syria’s crackdown on dissent in a symbolic effort meant to push the deadlocked Security Council and the world at large into action on stopping the country’s civil war. Michael Phelps rallied to win the 100meter butterfly for his third gold of the London Games and No. 17 of his career. Missy Franklin set a world record in the 200 backstroke for the 17-year-old’s third gold in London. Falling at speeds of up to 220 mph, nearly 140 skydivers shattered the vertical skydiving world record as they flew heads-down in a massive snowflake formation in northern Illinois.
