4th grader selling jewelry creations to benefit leukemia research

By AdAm drApcho THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

GILFORD — The thought of other children suffering with cancer is upsetting but what can a 4th grade girl do to help?

For Despina Kafanelis, the answer is to make jewelry, something she’s already been doing for years.

Until she sells out, Despina’s jewelry will be sold at Pizza Express in Gilford, a business her father owns. The bracelets

and necklaces are available by donation, with proceeds from the sale going to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.

Despina said she first heard of the society, which helps fund research toward a cure, when she and the rest of her third grade class each attempted to fill a small box with coins to be donated to the cause. Now a fourth grader at the Elementary School, Despina thought she could collect more money by offering jewelry in exchange for donations.

“I really like making bracelets,” she said, explaining that she began the craft when she was in Kindergarten. The bracelets and necklaces for sale at Pizza Express feature a chain with a pendant, either a star, a heart or a cross.

Making jewelry, she said, “is really interesting, it’s really creative,” and she’s glad to be able to put her skill to good use.

Scores of exotic animals shot in Ohio

ZANESVILLE, Ohio (AP) — Sheriff’s deputies shot nearly 50 wild animals — including 18 rare Bengal tigers and 17 lions — in a big-game hunt across the Ohio countryside Wednesday after the owner of an exotic-animal park threw their cages open and committed suicide in what may have been one last act of spite against his neighbors and police.

As homeowners nervously hid indoors, officers armed with high-powered rifles and shoot-to-kill orders fanned out through fields and woods to hunt down 56 animals that had been turned loose from the Muskingum County Animal Farm by owner Terry Thompson before he shot himself to death Tuesday.

After an all-night hunt that extended into Wednesday afternoon, 48 animals were killed.

Six others — three leopards, a grizzly bear and two monkeys — were captured and taken to the Columbus Zoo. A wolf was later found dead, leaving a monkey as the only animal still on the loose. see EXOTIC page 9

Anti-government rallies turn violent in Athens ATHENS, Greece (AP) — Hundreds of youths smashed and looted stores in central Athens and clashed with riot police during a massive anti-government rally against painful new austerity measures that won initial parliamentary approval in a vote Wednesday night.

The rioting came on the first day of a 48-hour nationwide general strike that brought services in much of Greece to a

standstill, grounding flights for hours, leaving ferries tied up in port and shutting down customs offices, stores and banks.

More than 100,000 people took to the streets of the Greek capital to demonstrate against the austerity bill, which includes new tax hikes, further pension and salary cuts, the suspension on reduced pay of 30,000 public servants and the suspension of collective labor contracts.

Creditors have demanded the meaures before they give Greece more funds from a €110 billion ($152.11 billion) package of bailout loans from other eurozone countries and the International Monetary Fund. Greece says it will run out of money in mid-November without the €8 billion ($11 billion) installment.

But Greek citizens said they already are see GREECE page 11

KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton is encouraging Afghanistan’s wary leadership to keep up Taliban reconciliation efforts and boosting counterterrorism cooperation with Pakistan as the Obama administration presses ahead with troop withdrawal plans.

Clinton arrived in Kabul late Wednesday on an unannounced visit and was scheduled to see President Hamid Karzai,

other top Afghan officials and civic leaders on Thursday. Her trip came after Karzai expressed frustration with attempts to woo Taliban fighters away from the insurgency amid increasing attacks by the Talibanallied, Pakistan-based Haqqani network.

Clinton was also to underscore the importance of linking Afghanistan to its neighbors, a consideration for a regional conference in Istanbul in early November, U.S. officials said.

The U.S. sees a political settlement with

the Taliban as key to ending the war and is pushing Karzai to lead and expand a reconciliation drive, although the Taliban has indicated no public interest in such a deal.

A secret U.S. effort to spark negotiations earlier this year angered Karzai.

The goal of reconciling fighters who renounce al-Qaida and violence and embrace Afghanistan’s constitution was dealt a major blow with the assassination see AFGHANISTAN page 14

LOS ANGELES (AP) — A medical expert looked jurors in the eyes Wednesday and told them that Michael Jackson’s doctor committed 17 flagrant violations of the standard of care for his famous patient and was directly responsible for the death of the King of Pop. Dr. Steven Shafer at one point called the defendant, Dr. Conrad Murray, “clueless” when it came to using the powerful anesthetic propofol and said he didn’t know what

to do when Jackson stopped breathing.

Prosecutor David Walgren concluded the day’s questioning by asking Shafer: “Would it be your opinion that Conrad Murray is directly responsible for the death of Michael Jackson for his egregious violations and abandonment of Michael Jackson?”

Shafer replied, “Absolutely.”

Just giving Jackson the anesthetic as a sleep aid was unconscionable, Shafer testified earlier.

“We are in pharmacological never-never land here, something that was done to Michael Jackson and no one else in history to my knowledge,” he told jurors.

When Murray found Jackson not breathing, there was nothing more important than calling 911, Shafer said.

Asked about Murray’s failure to do so, the witness caught his breath and said, “I almost don’t know what to say. That is so see JACKSON page 12

ICE officer arrested for smuggling marijuana House guest says he

PHOENIX (AP) — A deportation officer with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement led Arizona state police and federal agents on a high-speed desert chase in his government vehicle, throwing bundles of marijuana out of the window as he fled, the Department of Public Safety said Wednesday.

The deportation officer, identified as Jason Alistair Lowery, 34, had been under surveillance for more than month after a known smuggler who had been arrested gave authorities a tip about the officer in an effort to get lenient treatment, Department of Public Safety Officer Carrick Cook told The Associated Press.

In a criminal complaint filed late Wednesday against Lowery, who also used to be a Border Patrol agent, a Department of Homeland Security investigator wrote that he got further information about Lowery through a confidential informant on Oct. 4.

The informant, whose identity was protected,

said that he or she was involved with Lowery and another man in a “rip” crew in which Lowery used his status in law enforcement to help steal marijuana from illegal immigrants, wrote Brian Gamberg-Bonilla, a special agent with the DPS’s Office of Investigations.

The informant agreed to call Lowery and arrange for him to pick up 500 pounds of pot in the desert on Tuesday, which is how authorities were able to follow him and begin to make their case, GambergBonilla wrote in the document.

DPS and federal agents tried to pull Lowery over after he picked up the marijuana with his unmarked ICE pickup truck, Cook said. Lowery then fled, leading agents on a 45-minute chase at speeds of up to 110 mph as he threw 10 of the 14 bundles of pot that he had in the truck out of the window, he said.

“He got pretty desperate,” Cook said. see SMUGGLING page 10

CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — A National Guard member will be allowed to bring her same-sex partner to a family Guard event in North Conway, N.H. Chief Warrant Officer Charlie Morgan of Rye, N.H., had been told that her civil union partner could not attend the “yellow ribbon reintegration” program this weekend.

But Sen. Jeanne Shaheen said Wednesday that the Department of Defense had clarified regulations

saying that gay and lesbian service members may take advantage of a regulation that allows service members to designate any one person, regardless of relationship, to join them at a yellow ribbon event.

Shaheen sent a letter to Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta Tuesday urging him to end what she called a discriminatory policy that bans same-sex spouses of returning Guard members from participating in National Guard family events.

didn’t see Celina Cass the night she disappeared

WEST STEWARTSTOWN, N.H (AP) — A guest in the house of an 11-year-old New Hampshire girl whose body was pulled from the Connecticut River in West Stewartstown in August says he didn’t see Celina Cass the night she was reported missing.

Kevin Mullaney, who had moved in with the family, said the door to the duplex was open when he returned home around midnight, and that he watched TV and then went to bed around 1 a.m.

The 23-year-old Mullaney told WMUR-TV (http:// bit.ly/q4bbPM ) that he left for work at 6:15 a.m. and that none of the vehicles in the driveway appeared to have moved overnight.

He said Celina’s mother, Luisia Cass, was like a mother to him, and Celina was like a sister.

Celina’s body was found Aug. 1, a week after she disappeared. Her death has been declared a homicide but no arrests have been made.

Class warfare Q&A Demands to let taxes rise for Americans topping the income charts have led to charges of “class warfare” by the usual Republican suspects. To move the conversation forward, here are some questions and answers: Question: Do you believe that only the rich should pay higher taxes?

Answer: Yes. When the economy gets better, people somewhat lower down on the income scale probably should pay something more. But let’s start with the rich.

Q: Is it fair that the top 1-percent pay 38-percent of all taxes?

A: First, let’s correct your number.

It applies only to federal income taxes. When you add in payroll taxes, federal excise taxes (gasoline, for example) and various state taxes, the bottom 20-percent paid 12.3-percent of their income in taxes last year and the wealthiest 1-percent paid 7.9-percent. Does that sound fair to you?

With all these taxes in the mix, the top 1-percent paid only 21.5-percent of the total — and do note that they earned 20.3-percent of total personal income.

Q: Well, what about that 51-percent of households that owed no federal income tax in 2009? Huh? A: So few Americans paid the federal income tax that year because the recession pushed many people’s earning below the taxable level. In ordinary times, households that don’t pay federal income tax range from 35-percent to 40-percent of the total. In 2007, the number was 38-percent.

Bear in mind that the Bush tax cuts removed many people (who were paying very little tax to begin with) off the tax rolls. Also, 17-percent of those who paid no income tax are over 65 and probably retired.

Q: Sen. Lindsey Graham defined class warfare as “when you pick one area of the economy and say we’re going to tax those people because most people are not those people.” Is it fair to let the American masses raise

taxes on a small group of rich people?

A: Hmmm. I don’t recall the Republican from South Carolina complaining during the Bush years, when the top 1-percent receive an average tax cut of $34,992, while the middle 20-percent got $647.

Q: President Obama keeps going on and on about asking the wealthiest among them to “pay their fair share” in taxes. What on earth does “fair share” mean?

A: Beats me. Call me a technocratic bore, but I think the role of taxation is to pay for the cost of government in a way that causes the least distress. That means a progressive tax code that takes a larger percentage from those who can afford it most.

Q: You want to soak the rich, don’t you?

A: No. They’re already soaking — in a bathtub of Champagne.

Q: You hate the rich, don’t you?

A: Absolutely not. I take them one tycoon at a time. Some I like a lot. But let me say this: I especially like rich people who don’t play the martyr when asked to pay their taxes. I like Warren Buffett very much.

Q: Well, if Warren Buffett wants to pay more in taxes, who’s stopping him?

A: That’s very cute. By the way, Bill Gross, the head of Pimco, the investment giant in Newport Beach, Calif., recently tweeted: “Class warfare by the 99-percent? Of course, they’re fighting back after 30 years of being shot at.” I like him, too.

Let me ask you a question: Are you better off than you were 11 years ago, when Bill Clinton was president, tax rates were higher and budgets balanced?

A: I’ll have to get back to you on that.

Raising the Medicare eligibility age is an unacceptable solution To the editor, The benefits I worked for all my life and PAID for should never be part of the patch that fixes the mess politicians made. The blame is not with us seniors and lifelong workers.

Stop the costly wars by getting us off the oil umbilical cord to the Middle East. Start using the NASA money to find alternate energy. Put tariffs on foreign products. Start federal work programs and craft apprenticeships for the young and unemployed. Make big business keep manufacturing jobs here by giving them tax breaks and incentives. Forgive student loans or at least allow them to come under the bankruptcy laws. Increase the tax on the very rich, close loop holes that allow them to pay less. Support the majority of Americans who work hard

and pay the most.

Social Security and Medicare are not welfare! I worked and paid into these programs for years. They are my lifeline as I get older. The should be the hope for the young. Don’t cut back government to the point it can’t function. Government is supposed to by “For the people, by the people”.

Focus on that, not the 1-percent of rich that pay to have their people elected.

Stop this fighting among yourselves.

Get along for the good of this country, make it all work. It’s a give and take world and no group represents everyone’s concerns.

Raising the Medicare eligibility age is unacceptable, and would raise out of pocket costs by $2,200 each year.

LETTERS Moose photograph illustrated a way of life I grew up within To the editor, The Wednesday paper contained a letter from a reader who was/is “deeply disturbed” by the picture of a dead moose on the front page. Hello, it’s moose season in New Hampshire.

I’m so sorry that Louisa’s sensitivities were offended; not really. I grew up in a hunting and fishing family, and part of hunting and fishing is that the animal has to die so you can eat the animal, kind of like the steak you finished prior to writing your article.

When a grocery store runs an ad in the paper for steak, poultry, or fish, do they not print a picture of the product to lure you into the store? Does that cause you “deep disturbance”? Where do you suppose that steak came from?

I see dead moose and I think steak, ya baby.

In the Bible, God explains that he gave us animals for our use, and I don’t think he was referring to just riding them. As a young boy I so looked forward to the hunting season, and time in the out-

doors with my father and grandfather.

They taught me how to make a clean kill, properly gut and clean the animal, how to survive in the woods, and how to cook wild game. My mother was an excellent wild game cook, and we ate everything we shot. My grandparents canned most of the birds and big game for the winter, which is what their parents and grandparents had taught them, so they wouldn’t go hungry. They had gone through the depression, and it was a big part of how they survived.

If you were a card caring vegetarian, which I doubt, I would be a little more caring of your sensitivities. When you turn on the television or pick up the paper and the news is showing dead people in the streets fighting for their freedoms, do you write the paper of your “deep disturbance” from those pictures? I doubt that as well.

To my brothers and sisters in the field, good hunting!

Terry Martin Laconia

Photograph of dead moose could make non-hunters of us all To the editor, Yesterday, a large group of us were remarking on the poor taste The Sun showed in printing the picture of the dead moose on the front page. Our remarks were not based in any way on any non-hunting prejudice but on the picture itself, which certainly could make non-hunters of us.

Therefore I was glad to see Ms. Simpson’s well written and sensitive letter to the editor today. With all the sadness many of us are dealing with today, we do not need to have some flashed at us early in the morning, or anytime.

Carolyn Sutcliffe Meredith

Daily Sun’s front page is no place for a picture of a dead moose To the editor, I wholeheartedly agree with Louise Simpson regarding displaying a huge picture of a dead moose on the front page of your paper. Very sad. I am against hunting any kind of animal but that is not going to stop man from doing so. I happen to be a lover of animals. To me, there is no challenge in

hunting moose as they are so docile and just stand there.

As Louise stated, this should have been put in a hunting magazine not The Laconia Daily Sun, and especially on the front page. This really started my day off great. Shame, shame.

Barbara J. Perry Moultonborough

Allowing people to die to balance the budget is a heartless act To the editor, Regarding Mr. Ewings letter on Mr. Hightower: Oops, my mistake! It seems Mr. Hightower’s podcast’s do not have the exact wording as his articles. Close but no cigar. Lesson learned.

But the rest of Mr Ewings raging at the machine is the usual right wing

salad. He will be yelling till his last heartbeat. LOL. Let me repeat what I said: no time in American history has some heartless scumbag like Eric Cantor proposed cuts before we save people’s lives and properties. Get real!

LETTERS Private management is twice as effective as Social Security To the editor, All I could rouse from Democratic slumber with my Top 10 Democratic Myths list were two chaps. Bill Knightly from Gilford and a Jon Hoyt from Bridgewater. Bill tried to defend only unions and Social Security. He agrees with my other eight myths.

Jon’s response was just an incoherent smogersboard with one central theme: “I LOVE Democrats, even when they are COMPLETE FAILURES and I drink as much purple Kool Aid as they tell me to”.

Further on one my myths. I have to laugh. I am the one being demonized and I am the one trying to get a better deal for the less fortunate people In America. I am playing the Democratic role trying to double Social Security checks and these guys are knocking the merit of my intentions.

The Democratic constituency are walking automatons of donkey propaganda, inculcated into them since Eden. You know the line . . . Republicans are heartless people who want to take Social Security away and throw grandma off a cliff in her rocking chair.

I admit this. That approach has been highly effective in BRAIN WASHING the rank and file pawns of the Democratic Party. But it is pure 100-percent B.S., as brown as a UPS truck.

I want MORE money and BETTER benefits for Social Security recipients, NOT LESS. Pillory me if you want for that. Consider my logic and ignore the political sound bites; above all, make your own decision. Don’t just accept the one from the socialist politburo.

There is not a single retirement program in America that functions like Social Security because “pay as you go” programs were OUTLAWED from existence years ago by the very people who run one, government. Pay as you go has many Ponzi scheme characteristics.

That is why it has been called one for decades. It is an accurate allegation.

FACT: Thirty years ago, public employees in three Texas counties withdrew from conventional Social Security. A certified accountant created a private alternative to duplicate the benefits of Social Security or exceed them with contributions matching the current system. The collected money pool is bid out to insurance companies and money managers to get the best deal with a minimum return GUARANTEED. REMEMBER this approach is the same EXACT approach used by almost EVERY PUBLIC AND PRIVATE pension

fund in ALL AMERICA. Result? The people in Texas are getting TWICE AS MUCH per month as people on conventional Social Security with better death benefits and disability benefits as well. Texas retirees with average earnings of $26,000 are getting $1,826 per month, the Social Security recipient is getting $1007. Texas retirees with average earnings of $51,200 are getting $3,600 per month. The Social Security person is getting $1,826.

Why the great differences? Social Security invests in ONLY Treasury instruments, which provide a very low rate of return compared to alternatives. EVERY OTHER PENSION FUND IN AMERICA INVESTS DIFFERENTLY THAN Social Security AND every one produces higher returns, WITHOUT exception. THAT IS WHY I SAY you are being RIPPED OFF and Social Security is a lousy investment BECAUSE IT COULD GENERATE double the return with prudent risk which is minimal with investment horizons that stretch decades. Two out of three people depend on Social Security for a large part of their income. The living standards of these people could be raised significantly and the outcome in Texas (over 30 years) offers some imperial evidence that what I preach is not some pipe dream. AT THE MINIMUM this approach deserves detail analysis and investigation, not an instant, Democratic, knee jerk, snapshot of granny heading toward the rocks. There is too much to gain for so many who could use more money.

Why are Democrats refusing to consider helping the poor double their income when it has been demonstrated by every pension plan in America that it can be done successfully over and over again. Because they could lose pawn voters who now see the other party as having a better mousetrap and WE DO. Ready for granny falling from her chair? That picture comes next in hopes of keeping your brain from working. As I said earlier, that picture has been very effective at keeping trillions of dollars from the pockets of the poor. It is hard to get un-brainwashed. I am talking about an iPhone upgrade to Social Security and Democrats want to keep you with two tin cans connected by a hunk of copper wire. By the way both cans are insolvent. Lets tax the rich is next. . .

Tony Boutin Gilford

Vaccinations should be considered with informed skepticism To the editor, What a fascinating reply by James Veverka to my cautionary note regarding vaccinations. I could list many more dozens of alternative/integrative/naturopathic doctors who recommend that people regard flu shots with an informed skepticism. They encourage all of us to educate ourselves about vaccinations. They recommend having an intelligent conversation with our doctors. They recommend that we discuss the pros and cons of vaccinations.

They have amassed a mountain of evidence which shows that keeping our bodies’ immune systems healthy may

be a better option than taking a flu shot with it’s potential side effects and questionable efficacy. After all, the flu vaccine is nothing more than a scattershot approach made many months in advance of the flu season and many times they have guessed wrong rendering it useless.

So yes, I could list many other docs, but Mr. Veverka would probably just assure us that everyone one of them are quacks. You don’t suppose James has frequented Stephen Barrett’s “Quackwatch site do you? That would be the site where any bogus alternasee next page

To the editor, Once again I have to take issue with the left as represented by the writings of James Veverka. Good ol’ Jimmy wants everyone to believe everything he writes can be verified by independent unbiased sources. Trouble is all those blue highlighted references contained in his letters do nothing of the kind. I’ve followed up on every one of his “sources”, and readers are free to check them if they doubt me, because they lead nowhere that gives the slightest creditability to his claim. In today’s paper (Oct. 19) he would have readers believe that the Tea Party is going under and what does he use to base his opinion on? The writers in (are you ready for this?) THE NEW YORK TIMES! Well now, there’s a impeccable unbiased source, RIGHT! As for those letters applauding Mr. Veverka’s writings and asking for more, I agree. Keep them coming Jim because you and your letters expose exactly how deceitful and hate filled those on the left really are. Your “sources” are jokes and your charges are unsupportable.

Speaking of jokes, have readers been following the “occupy Wall Street” gangs? In New York the arrests are up to around a thousand now. Filth abounds and I can’t recall anyone on the left decrying the many antiSemitic signs and speech seen and heard from these clowns. Ask what they want, they want MORE. More what you ask? More of other peoples money. More what? Forgive their student loans. Free education. How can I work my way through collage when tuition is $50,000 a year one dim bulb asked? Gee, who’s fault is that? Someone hold a gun to his head when he signed for the loan? And why is any collage requiring that kind of tuition

anyway? Are all those professors getting that kind of money to teach? I doubt it! So where’s the blame here?

With the government? The Republicans, the Tea Party, the Democrats even? No I don’t think so, it’s with the fools who agree to the terms and the collages who look to be at least as bad and even worse then the banks giving the loans because even after students graduate these schools hound their alumni for contributions for the rest of their lives and expect even to be remembered in their wills. What a racket! No wonder these kids think their being screwed over, they are. But it’s by their colleges and professors who assure them it everyone except the schools and professors doing the screwing.

Speaking of professors. Dear Professor Sandy wrote the other day that we should be more humble. Don’t take pride in ourselves, our schools, communities, our nation. We are too prideful, he assures readers sighting white pride, black pride, gay pride, on and on he goes but just a little further on he writes “it would be so nice to see white humility, the few the humble, and humble to be an American”. I know he is inferring all the others listed above these but I had to laugh because he just couldn’t bring himself to write, “black humility, gay humility”. Political correctness is so ingrained in the left.

If Leo wants to hear the call for humility, it’s not far away Leo. Any church or Christian service, it’s there for you. But then the left reject and sneer at Christians and the Christian religion. In fact the left looses no opportunity to denigrate all religions but especially Christians. I wonder why that is?

Steve Earle Hill

from preceding page tive therapies are meticulously ferreted out so as to alert the helpless public.

Of course Mr. Veverka was so busy playing his “nanny state” fiddle that he missed the whole point of my letter. He seemingly has been so indoctrinated into leftist ideology — believing that our beloved government always knows better regarding the care of our own bodies — that he leaves no room for intelligent discussion. Yes, I have come to the conclusion that the flu shot is just not worth the risk for me personally. However, my main points were as follows: (1) folks should be in charge of their health decisions and not the government; (2)doctors know little of therapies outside of drugs and surgery, necessitating that consumers do their own research into alternatives; (3) the doctor/patient relationship needs to be a partnership rather than a dictatorship; (4) there are so many natural therapies we should enlist first before choosing potentially toxic medications; (5) we need to take responsibility for the choices we make in life and not leave it up to the government.

We are an overdosed society with more people dying from prescription drugs than from illegal drugs. We are running out of of vital antibiotics that still work because they are so overprescribed. Our bodies are breaking down prematurely because we want a magic pill to cure our ills and so we transform our bodies from well oiled machines into toxic waste dumps.

Look, I have great respect for doctors, who do many things in expert fashion.

It’s just that they can’t know everything and they aren’t always right.

Unfortunately, they are unduly influenced by the pharmaceutical companies. Government bureaucracies have incestuous relationships with those companies. This has created another form of crony capitalism that, in my opinion, is doing tremendous harm to the physical and mental health of this country. I’m pretty sure that Mr. Veverka doesn’t like the government/ Wall Street crony capitalism which leaves me perplexed as to why he seems so enamored with government/ big pharma crony capitalism.

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Thursday, October 20, 2011— Page 7

The seven people arrested on Tuesday in connection with a lengthy, multi-agency investigation into alleged drug trafficing included (l-r) Justin Ainsley of Norwood, Mass., Sherry L. Barnhart of Campton, Kim Locke on Concord, Lhauna L. Martin of Holderness, Jessica Sargent of Franklin, Scott Tripp of Franklin and Dana E. Zizzo of Laconia. (Police photos)

BUST from page one St. in Norwood, Mass. was arrested by Tilton Police while in his summer rental for a crime he allegedly committed in Belmont. It is not known what his connection is to the others.

Tilton Police declined to comment.

Ainsley’s paperwork was unavailable but the media statement issued by Gilford police said he was charged with one count of marijuana sales. He was held on $250 cash bail and $30,000 in personal recognizance bail. He was prosecuted by Belknap County Attorney Melissa Guldbrandsen.

His mother said she would post bail and, as of 5 p.m. yesterday, a guard at the Belknap County Jail said he is the only one of the six who appeared in court yesterday not incarcerated.

The other two, Scott Tripp, 39 of 65 Prospect St. in Franklin and Jessica Sargent, 35, of 35 East Bow St. in Franklin were taken into custody by Franklin Police.

Sargent is charged with one count of conspiracy to commit a sale of a controlled drug, one count of selling marijuana and one count of selling oxycodone — a powerful pain killer.

She was released on personal recognizance bail and didn’t appear in court yesterday. No complaints regarding her charges were made available and Franklin police declined all comment.

Arguing on Locke’s, Tripp’s and Ainsley’s behalf was Ashley Ashworth of the N.H. Public Defender’s Office.

While neither Ashworth nor her office has yet been appointed as counsel for any of defendants, she

arrived in Courtroom 2 of the Laconia’s 4th District Court in time to attempt to represent Locke, Tripp, and Ainsley on bail matters.

Tripp was in court yesterday and was initially charged with five counts of selling oxycodone at three different locations — three times at the Mardi Gras, and two times at other locations in the Weirs.

Gilford Prosecutor Eric Bredbury said Tripp had previous convictions for drug possession, simple assault and sexual assault, but Ashworth said they were all well into his past and, because of some medical issues, Tripp posed no danger of fleeing.

Judge Carroll did not find probable cause for four of the five charges but ordered him held on $2,000 cash bail and $20,000 personal recognizance bail.

Locke was initially charged with five counts of sales of cocaine, however Carroll said he didn’t find probable cause for four of the charges against her. Nevertheless, Carroll said selling cocaine was “extraordinarily dangerous” and her ordered her held on $2,000 cash and $30,000 personal recognizance bail.

Complaints show the same member of the drug task force was responsible for all 10 of Locke’s and Tripp’s initial charges.

Gilford police requested and received a court order to seal all of the affidavits supporting either the arrests or searches relating to the case for 120 days.

While six of the seven people charged appeared in Laconia yesterday, they were arranged by telephone as Judge Jim Carroll was working in Exeter.

Ashworth had not read any of the affidavits and was not in court in time to represent Martin, Zizzo or Barnhart. Carroll said all six defendants will get a chance to have a separate bail hearing and, on Ashworth’s request, ruled the sealed affidavits could be made available to lawyers who will represent the defendants.

It is not known if the public defender’s office was officially notified about the arraignment or, if not, how Ashworth learned about it.

The other three women, Zizzo, Bernhart, and Martin didn’t have attorneys with them at their appearance and preceded Locke, Tripp, and Ainsley.

Zizzo is charged with three separate counts of selling an undisclosed amount of marijuana for $65, each time to undercover police.

She was ordered held on $5,000 cash only bail because, according to Carroll’s telephone statements, his paperwork indicates she was in violation of an order from Dover District Court to pay $192 in restitution. Carroll also ordered her held on $500 cash for alleged counts of identify fraud and fraudulent use of a credit card for charges she faces in Portsmouth District Court.

When Carroll asked her if she wished to speak on her own behalf regarding bail, Zizzo acknowledged being “in a whole lot of trouble” and wanted to know that if she posted the $5,000 cash bail, would someone from Strafford County come and get her.

When she learned that would probably be the case see next page

LACONIA — With the Belknap County Jail filled to capacity, Dan Ward, superintendent of the corrections department, told the county commissioners this week when he presented his 2012 budget request that pressures on space and expenses are exacerbated by sentences pronounced from the bench.

The county jail has 36 individual cells, or secure units with one bed, which Ward said are always full.

Another 93 beds, for a total of 129, area distributed among communal rooms, including the gymnasium where a dozen inmates are housed.

The necessity of separating prisoners — men and women, minimum and maximum security, victims and perpetrators and co-defendants charged in the same crime — severely constrains the use of the limited space.

As the court metes out longer sentences, a larger share of the space is occupied by inmates serving them, with more than half the beds taken by those incarcerated for a year or longer.

For example, Ward told the commissioner that this week a man convicted of four misdemeanors was given consecutive sentences; that is, the sentence for each offense will follow one another instead of being served concurrently. As a result, he will spend 402 days in the county jail at a cost

of $32,160, excluding any medical expenses he might incur.

In other cases, Ward questions whether the offense warrants incarceration at all. Again, this week two men found intoxicated and taken into custody were jailed in lieu of $100 cash bail, one stayed 37 days at a cost of $2,960 and the other for 47 days at a cost of $3,760, not including any medical expenses.

Ward reminded the commissioners that the success of educational and counseling programs designed to reduce the number of inmates who return to jail depended on maintaining a manageable prison population. He said that currently one full-time and one part-time officer were assigned to community corrections, or managing inmates, who are not incarcerated but monitored through electronic bracelets. “One person is not enough,” he said, asking to make the part-time position a full-time position while replacing the officer who split his time with a full-time correctional officer.

In approving the request, Ed Philpot, chairman of the commission, said, “If we don’t keep pouring money into programs and community corrections to manage the jail population, the budget could be up $1-million.

This year, Ward said, the county budgeted for an average population of 90 inmates per day, but recommended increasing that figure to 110 in 2012,

Laconia man dies after falling off ladder LACONIA — A Hillcrest Drive man died after falling from a ladder at his home, according to police. He was found by a family member on Tuesday night, who notified emergency services.

The man apparently fell from a ladder that was inside of his garage.

Police who said he appeared to have

struck his head on an object in the garage during his fall.

Because the death was unattended, the property was marked with yellow tape until his autopsy, performed yesterday morning, confirmed the death was accidental. The man’s name is being withheld until family notifications can be made.

from preceding page she answered, “whatever bail is at, I’m not going anywhere, anyway.”

Martin was charged with one count of selling one 10 milligram pill of Suboxone — a drug similar to methadone and typically prescribed for pain killer addictions — for $20.

Through her tears, she told Carroll that she has an 18-month old daughter and “that she was working at the Mardi Gras.”

“I needed the money,” she said, sobbing.

“This isn’t something I normally do.”

She was ordered held on $328.22 cash — the amount of money she owes Plymouth District Court for some undisclosed violations — and $5,000 personal recognizance.

Carroll asked her if she thought she could pay the $328.22 and she said she thought she may be able to.

Bredbury asked if she forfeited bail that it goes to Plymouth to pay the fines, Carroll denied his request saying that his philosophy is that drug dealing is more serious than not paying fines

and that, as of now, the Laconia court would retain the bail if it is posted and Martin fails to show up for court.

Barnhart faces five counts of selling unknown quantities of 30 milligram pills of oxycodone for varying amounts of money — anywhere from $105 to $335.

Carroll ordered her held on $2,000 cash-only and $30,000 personal recognizance bail.

Bredbury told Carroll that, by Barnhart’s own admission, she has previous arrests for shoplifting in Maine and Massachusetts, but otherwise and to the best of his knowledge, had no criminal record.

Gilford Police said the N.H. Attorney General’s Drug Task Force, the N.H. State Police Swat Team, the Belknap County Regional Special Operations Group assisted Gilford with the raid Tuesday night.

There are no charges against the above seven people for any firearms violation, but police said more arrests are forthcoming.

Local taxpayers to pay bigger share of county home expense

By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA — Property taxpayers will pay a larger share of the cost of operating the Belknap County Nursing Home in 2012 as the state contribution to the expense of providing long-term care to the needy elderly continues to shrink.

Presenting his proposed budget to the Belknap County Commission yesterday, Courtney Marshall, the administrator of the nursing home, recommended a budget of $11.3-million, an increase of 0.9-percent. However, the state trimmed Medicaid payments by 25-percent, reducing nursing home revenue from $7.5-million to $7.4-million. With marginal decreases in other revenues, the contribution of county taxpayers required to balance the nursing home budget is projected to rise by more than $140,000, or 3.8-percent.

The rate of increase is less than that in 2010 and 2011 when the the share of the budget shouldered by property taxpayers jumped nearly 10-percent.

EXOTIC from page 2 Those destroyed included six black bears, two grizzlies, a baboon and three mountain lions.

“It’s like Noah’s Ark wrecking right here in Zanesville, Ohio,” lamented Jack Hanna, TV personality and former director of the Columbus Zoo. Hanna defended the sheriff’s decision to kill the animals but said the deaths of the Bengal tigers were especially tragic. There are only about 1,400 of the endangered cats left in the world, he said.

“When I heard 18 I was still in disbelief,” he said.

“The most magnificent creature in the entire world, the tiger is.”

As the hunt dragged on outside of Zanesville, population 25,000, schools closed in the mostly rural area of farms and widely spaced homes 55 miles east of Columbus. Parents were warned to keep children and pets indoors. And flashing signs along highways told motorists, “Caution exotic animals” and “Stay in vehicle.”

Officers were ordered to kill the animals instead of trying to bring them down with tranquilizers for fear that those hit with darts would escape in the darkness before they dropped and would later regain consciousness.

“These animals were on the move, they were showing aggressive behavior,” Sheriff Matt Lutz said. “Once the nightfall hit, our biggest concern was having these animals roaming.”

The sheriff would not speculate why Thompson killed himself and why he left open the cages and fences at his 73-acre preserve, dooming the animals he seemed to love so much.

Thompson, 62, had had repeated run-ins with the law and his neighbors. Lutz said that the sheriff’s

In an effort to boost revenues, the commissioners recommended raising the rate for private residents from $230 per day to $250 per day, which represents the average for the 11 county nursing homes in the state.

“We are the best nursing home in the state,” proclaimed Ed Philpot, chairman of the commission, alluding to the most recent evaluations. “We should at least charge the average.”

Finance Director Glen Waring estimated the rate increase, which applies to a small number of residents, would return about $50,000 a year, offsetting little more than a third of the increased cost to property taxpayers.

But, Marshall cautioned that the higher rate would accelerate the pace at which private residents exhaust their assets and become eligible for Medicaid. The nursing home is reimbursed less than $150 per day for its residents receiving Medicaid residents. Currently there are fewer than a dozen private-pay residents while 81 are on Medicaid.

office had received numerous complaints since 2004 about animals escaping onto neighbors’ property.

The sheriff’s office also said that Thompson had been charged over the years with animal cruelty, animal neglect and allowing animals to roam.

He had gotten out of federal prison just last month after serving a year for possessing unregistered guns.

John Ellenberger, a neighbor, speculated that Thompson freed the animals to get back at neighbors and police. “Nobody much cared for him,” Ellenberger said.

Angie McElfresh, who lives in an apartment near the farm and hunkered down with her family in fear, said “it could have been an ‘f-you’ to everybody around him.”

Thompson had rescued some of the animals at his preserve and purchased many others, said Columbus Zoo spokeswoman Patty Peters.

It was not immediately clear how Thompson managed to support the preserve and for what purpose it was operated, since it was not open to the public.

But Thompson had appeared on the “Rachael Ray Show” in 2008 as an animal handler for a zoologist guest, said show spokeswoman Lauren Nowell.

The sheriff’s office started getting calls Tuesday evening that wild animals were loose just west of Zanesville. Deputies went to the animal preserve and found Thompson dead and all the cages open.

Several aggressive animals were near his body and had to be shot, the sheriff said.

Sheriff’s Deputy Jonathan Merry was among the first to respond Tuesday. He said he shot a number of animals, including a gray wolf and a black bear. see next page

from preceding page He said the bear charged him and he fired his pistol, killing it with one shot when it was about 7 feet away.

“All these animals have the ability to take a human out in the length of a second,” said Merry, who called himself an animal lover but said he knew he was protecting the community.

“What a tragedy,” said Barb Wolfe, a veterinarian with The Wilds, a nearby zoo-sponsored wild animal preserve. She said she managed to hit a tiger with a tranquilizer dart, but the animal charged toward her and then turned and began to flee before the drug could take effect, and deputies shot the big cat.

At an afternoon news conference, the sheriff said that the danger had passed and that people could move around freely again, but that the monkey would probably be shot because it was believed to be carrying a herpes disease.

“It was like a war zone with all the shooting and so forth with the animals,” said Sam Kopchak, who was outside Tuesday afternoon when he saw Thompson’s horses acting up. Kopchak said he turned and saw a male lion lying down on the other side of a fence.

“The fence is not going to be a fence that’s going to hold an African lion,” Kopchak said.

Danielle Berkheimer said she was nervous as she drove home Tuesday night and afraid to let her two dogs out in the yard.

“When it’s 300-pound cats, that’s scary,” she said.

She said it had been odd Tuesday night to see no one out around town, and the signs warning drivers to stay in their cars were “surreal.”

Some townspeople were saddened by the deaths.

At a nearby Moose Lodge, Bill Weiser said: “It’s breaking my heart, them shooting those animals.”

Ohio has some of the nation’s weakest restrictions on exotic pets and among the highest number of injuries and deaths caused by them. At least nine people have been injured since 2005 and one person was killed, according to Born Free USA, an animal advocacy group.

On Wednesday, the Humane Society of the United States criticized Gov. John Kasich for allowing a statewide ban on the buying and selling of exotic pets to expire in April. The organization urged the state to immediately issue emergency restrictions.

“How many incidents must we catalog before the state takes action to crack down on private ownership of dangerous exotic animals?” Wayne Pacelle, president and CEO, said in a statement.

Kasich said Wednesday during a meeting of Dix Communications editors: “Clearly, we need tougher laws. We haven’t had them in this state. Nobody’s dealt with this, and we will. And we’ll deal with it in a comprehensive way.”

Barney Long, an expert at the World Wildlife Fund, noted that tigers in general are endangered.

He said there appear to be fewer of them living in the wild than there are in captivity in the U.S. alone.

Over the last century, the worldwide population has plunged from about 100,000 in the wild to as few as 3,200, he said.

More than half are Bengal tigers, which live in isolated pockets across Nepal, Bhutan, Myanmar, India and Bangladesh, he said in a telephone interview “The tragic shooting of 18 tigers in Ohio really highlights what is happening on a daily basis to tigers in the wild throughout Asia,” Long added in an email. “Their numbers are being decimated by poaching and habitat loss, and that is the real travesty here.”

SMUGGLING from page 3 The chase began in the Vekol Valley about 45 miles south of Phoenix and ended just south of Sacaton, about 20 miles as the crow flies northwest from where the chase began. It ended when Lowery’s truck rolled over and he gave himself up.

Lowery, who lives in the Phoenix suburb of Chandler, appeared in federal court in downtown Phoenix on Wednesday but did not address the court. He sat quietly awaiting the hearing and at one point looked

up at the ceiling and repeatedly shook his head.

Prosecutor John Lopez argued that Lowery should be detained as his court case proceeds, saying that he poses a risk to the community and could flee the state. He also said that Lowery had a non-government-issued gun on him when he was arrested.

Federal Magistrate Michelle Burns set a hearing in the matter for Tuesday.

Mexican drug cartels have infiltrated federal law enforcement agencies along the border for years, targeting hiring initiatives with their own people or recruiting officers.

Between 2003 and early 2010, 129 U.S. customs officers and Border Patrol agents were arrested on corruption charges, according to Tom Frost, the Department of Homeland Security’s assistant inspector general for investigations. The office was not immediately able to provide an updated figured to the AP.

GREECE from page 3 reeling from more than one-and-a-half years of austerity measures.

“We just can’t take it any more. There is desperation, anger and bitterness,” said Nikos Anastasopoulos, head of a workers’ union for an Athens municipality, as he joined the demonstration early in the day.

The bill won initial approval in the 300-member Parliament late Wednesday, with 154 deputies voting in favor on principle and 141 against. A second vote, on the bill’s articles, is due Thursday. Only after that procedure will the bill have passed. A communist party-backed union has vowed to encircle Parliament Thursday in an attempt to prevent deputies from entering the building for the procedure.

The new measures have even prompted some lawmakers from the governing Socialists to threaten not vote for at least some of the articles in the bill.

But Finance Minister Evangelos Venizelos insisted there was no choice but to accept the hardship.

“We have to explain to all these indignant people who see their lives changing that what the country is experiencing is not the worst stage of the crisis,” he said in Parliament. “It is an anguished and necessary effort to avoid the ultimate, deepest and harshest level of the crisis. The difference between a difficult situation and a catastrophe is immense.”

Hours before Wednesday’s vote, one of Athens’ largest demonstrations in years degenerated into violence as masked and hooded youths pelted riot police outside Parliament with gasoline bombs and chunks of marble smashed from buildings, metro stops and sidewalks.

Police responded with tear gas and stun grenades. Authorities said 50 police were injured in the clashes, along with at least three demonstrators, while 33 people were detained for questioning or arrested for alleged involvement in the rioting. At least three journalists covering the riots were also slightly hurt.

Long after Wednesday’s demonstration was over, violence continued, with police fighting running street battles with youths setting up burning barricades along the back streets near Athens’ main Syntagma Square and near the tourist area of Monastiraki.

Thick black smoke billowed from burning trash and bus-stops, and debris lay strewn along the capital’s broad avenues. A hurled gasoline bomb set fire to a sentry post used by the ceremonial presidential guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier outside Parliament.

Adjunct professors at PSU call for union vote PLYMOUTH — Adjunct professors at Plymouth State University (PSU) announced on Tuesday they have filed for an election at the Public Employees Labor Relations Board, which is the first step in forming a collective bargaining unit. The question on the ballot is whether the faculty is for or against organizing and becoming a part of a union — The State Employees Association (SEA).

If the majority of adjunct faculty members are in favor of organizing into a union, they will be able to negotiate with the administration as a unified body, rather than on an individual basis. Approximately 250 adjunct faculty members fall within this category and represent the majority of the teaching staff at the university.

Adjunct faculty members do not enjoy the same compensation, benefits, and protections as full time faculty, even if they are teaching a full course load.

In making the announcement, the SEA said most of the PSU adjuncts are currently living at or below the poverty line. At one time, they out-earned their peers at Keene State College. However, since the adjuncts at Keene State organized in 1993, they now earn up to $500 more per credit than adjuncts at Plymouth State.

“Now is the time to achieve pay equity with our

sister institution, Keene State College,” said Lynn Chong of Sanbornton, a PSU adjunct.

In addition to dissatisfaction with their compensation, many adjuncts feel they are viewed and treated as inferior to full-time faculty members.

“I want a union at PSU because I believe that adjuncts are an important part of the university, and that they should be treated as such,” said Jay Knowler, an adjunct faculty member. “Students often remark that adjuncts are engaging and interesting teachers, yet many of these same adjuncts need to work second, and even third, jobs to get by, due to the relatively low pay afforded to them. Adjuncts deserve a fair compensation package because they are critical contributors to the quality of education at PSU.” If the adjuncts vote to organize, they will elect a bargaining team that will work with the administration on drafting and accepting a contract that represents the improvements adjuncts would like to see.

SEA is a union that represents 12,000 public and private sector workers in N.H., including the fulltime faculty, adjunct faculty, and staff of the Community College System of NH. SEA is affiliated with Service Employees International Union (SEIU), a union of 2.2-million members in North America.

Clarification: Large food pantry donation is annual, not monthly An article in our Tuesday, Oct. 18 edition reported that the a benefactor of the Meredith Emergency Food Pantry makes a monthly four-figure donation.

Paul Rowley, director of the pantry, called yesterday to clarify that the gift is made annually, not monthly.

He added that the pantry greatly appreciates all

donations, which help the pantry meet a growing need for assistance. Cash donations, large or small, go especially far toward that end, he noted, because the all-volunteer organization can use the funds to buy food at an unusual discount. “I can get a better buy than the average Joe off the street.”

JACSON from page 2 completely and utterly inexcusable.”

In addition, Murray was acting more like Jackson’s employee than a physician who should have rejected the singer’s requests for propofol as a sleep aid, Shafer said.

“Saying yes is not what doctors do,” he testified.

“A competent doctor would know you do not do this.”

The Columbia University professor and researcher gave jurors a crash course on propofol, an anesthetic used in hospital settings.

A video shown to jurors detailed numerous safety measures that were not employed by Murray when he administered the drug to Jackson as a sleep aid at the singer’s home, according to testimony.

“The worst disasters occur in sedation and they occur when people cut corners,” Shafer said. In Jackson’s case, “virtually none of the safeguards were in place,” he added.

Shafer is expected to be the last prosecution witness in the involuntary manslaughter case against Murray.

He said the fact that Murray was on his cell phone in the hours before Jackson’s death was a setup for disaster.

“A patient who is about to die does not look all that different from a patient who is OK,” Shafer said, adding that doctors cannot multitask and properly monitor a patient who is sedated.

Shafer, who wrote the package insert that guides doctors in the use of the anesthetic, lectured the panel as if they were in a classroom. He narrated while the silent video took jurors into an operating room to see the specialized equipment and procedures.

The researcher told jurors that it appeared Murray intended to give Jackson large doses of propofol on a nightly basis. He said records showed Murray purchased 130 100ml vials of propofol in the nearly three months before Jackson’s death.

Shafer said that is “an extraordinary amount to purchase to administer to a single individual.”

He also told jurors that keeping records is essentially. see next page

Executive Director Cheryl Gonzalo and President Phyllis Hamblet of the Visiting Nurses of Meredith and Center Harbor cut the ribbon that officially opens the new Waukewan offices for the organization.

(Laconia Daily Sun photo/Gail Ober)

Visiting Nurses open new building in Meredith MEREDITH — About 50 people including staff, patients, volunteers, board members and state Sen. Jeanne Forrester (R-Meredith) were on hand October 14 for the grand opening of the new home of the Visiting Nurses of Meredith and Center Harbor.

The agency, which provides in-home and outpatient care for about 50 to 70 people annually, has been raising money for the new building at 186 Waukewan Street for a number of years, said Treasurer Ed Touhey.

“The initial costs of the land and building were the results of income and donations over a period of many years by a number of vigilant boards of directors,” Touhey said.

Touhey said the agency, that has been assisting people in Meredith and Center Harbor has always leased facilities that never really gave the VNA the proper facility to serve its customers.

The Visiting Nurses work collabora-

tively with doctors and families to provide in home care that enables many to remain independent. Studies have shown that people in general tend to feel more comfortable and will recover faster from many illnesses and surgeries if allowed to recover at home.

The agencies also prides itself on serving people who can’t necessary pay for the services and Touhey said donations of any size are always welcome.

The new office is open Monday through Friday from 9 to 10 a.m. and 1 to 2 p.m. for blood pressure checks.

The agencies also depends on donations to help defray the costs of other services including foot clinics and flu shots.

Touhey also said the board of directors is in the middle of another capital fund raiser.

Donations may be made by going to www.mphna.org. For more information about programs and services, please call 279-6611.

from preceding page While narrating the video, Shafer noted the doctor in the footage was taking copious notes.

“Moment by moment, the anesthesiologist writes down everything that happens, as diligently as you are doing here,” he said as jurors scribbled in notebooks.

He said the lack of record-keeping was a violation of Jackson’s rights, especially if something went wrong.

“He has a right to know what was done to him,” Shafer said. “With no medical record, the family has been denied that right.”

Testimony has shown that Murray took no notes on his treatment of Jackson and didn’t record his vital signs on June 25, 2009, the day Jackson died.

“The record is not just some static document,” Shafer said. “It’s fundamental to the care that is given.”

La Russa’s moves pay off & St. Louis wins game 1 ST. LOUIS (AP) — Nobody plays a hunch like Tony La Russa. Not this October, anyway.

The St. Louis manager once again looked like a genius, especially when Allen Craig pinch-hit for ace Chris Carpenter and delivered a go-ahead single that sent the Cardinals past the Texas Rangers 3-2 on Wednesday night in the World Series opener.

Craig’s slicing hit in the sixth inning fell inches in front of sliding right fielder Nelson Cruz. Game 1 was just that tight throughout a cold, damp evening.

“Man, he’s tough,” Craig said of hard-throwing reliever Alexi Ogando. “He came right at me with fastballs, and I missed the first two. Then that last one I was trying to get the barrel on it, make the defense make a play. Fortunate, kept it fair, and Cruz made a great attempt on that. It was a great play all-around.”

It was a game perfectly suited for the National League style — lots of bunts, intentional walks and pitching changes. And in a postseason in which he’s made all the right moves, the 67-year-old La Russa was at the top of his game.

After pulling Carpenter, La Russa coaxed three scoreless innings from his deep bullpen. Five relievers did the job, with Jason Motte closing for his fifth save of the postseason.

A day earlier, Texas manager Ron Washington joked, “I don’t think I can ever live up to matching wits with Tony La Russa.” Who can, these days?

The Cardinals even won without their Rally Squirrel. There were no sightings of the elusive critter still roaming Busch Stadium — good thing for the rodent, too, because La Russa probably would’ve devised a way to catch him.

Game 2 is Thursday night, with Jaime Garcia starting for the Cards against Colby Lewis. Texas has not lost two straight games since August.

This was the first time Texas had ever played in St. Louis. Yet Josh Hamilton, Cruz and the big-hitting Rangers looked a lot like the team that fizzled at the plate in last year’s World Series against San Francisco.

Each team wound up with six hits. The wild-card Cardinals just did more with them.

Lance Berkman put St. Louis ahead with a tworun single in the fourth. Mike Napoli tied it with a two-run homer in the fifth.

Carpenter earned his eighth postseason win, breaking the team record he shared with Bob Gibson. Of course, all of Gibby’s victories came in the World Series.

“Carp, he did what he usually does,” Craig said.

“He was our leader out there tonight. “Went out there and threw strikes, got early outs, and he led us tonight. It was great.”

Carpenter helped himself with a nifty play in the first inning, diving to catch a toss from first baseman Albert Pujols and tagging the bag with his glove. He didn’t argue when La Russa removed him — all the Cards know too well to doubt La Russa’s smarts.

Cardinals relievers Fernando Salas, Marc Rzepczynski, Octavio Dotel, Arthur Rhodes and Motte finished.

C.J. Wilson fell to 0-5 in his last seven postseason starts, dating to last year.

The Texas lefty recently spent 2½ minutes in a Dallas cryotherapy chamber, where liquid nitrogen lowered the temperature to 295 degrees below zero trying to speed body recovery. It was a bit warmer at the ballpark, at 49 degrees for the first pitch.

Wilson became the first pitcher to lose an All-Star game, an AL division series game, an AL championship series game and a World Series game in the same year, STATS LLC said.

AFGHANISTAN from page 2

The U.S. official said the Obama administration is sympathetic to Karzai’s desire for Pakistan to do more and that Clinton would talk with Karzai about the need for Pakistan to put additional pressure on the Haqqani network.

Over the weekend, militants tried but failed to blast their way into an American base in eastern Afghanistan, striking before dawn with rocket-propelled grenades and a car bomb. The Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack in a text message sent to The Associated Press.

NATO says such spectacular strikes, many of them perpetrated by the Haqqani network, are actually down from past years. But assassinations have increased 60 percent for the same period with 131 people killed so far this year.

In addition to reconciliation, Clinton will also be pressing the Afghans on reaching a binding security agreement that will govern U.S.-Afghanistan relations after American troops leave.

last month of elder statesman Burhanuddin Rabbani, who was leading Karzai’s outreach. Rabbani was killed when he greeted a suicide bomber posing as a Taliban emissary bearing a reconciliation message.

A senior U.S. official said Clinton would emphasize that the U.S. remains committed to Afghan reconciliation and understands the difficulties that that process has undergone since the assassination.

The official spoke on condition of anonymity to preview Clinton’s meetings.

Karzai has cited the killing as a reason why peace efforts are futile. He lamented recently that although he wants to continue, neighboring Pakistan should be in the lead since the Taliban high command lives there.

In addition, spectacular attacks — like one last month on the U.S. Embassy compound and the headquarters of the US-led NATO forces in Kabul — by the Haqqani network have dented enthusiasm for the push.

by John and Sally Adams in 1835 as a family farm. The picturesque brick home has changed families throughout the years, but one constant has remained; its open doors to weary travelers both as a private residence and an inn.

Hosts and new innkeepers, Kevin and Cassie Steinfeldt, have traveled extensively before deciding to set roots down in Plymouth. They will share the rich history associated with The Federal House and some of the families who have occupied it.

For more information about the Business After Hours, or the Plymouth Regional Chamber of Commerce contact the Chamber office at 5361001, or email info@plymouthnh.org.

by Darby Conley

Get Fuzzy

By Holiday Mathis eat your time.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You discover a need and fill it for fun and profit. It’s so simple for you to make money today that you wonder what held you back before. People pay you to solve a problem.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). In the span of the day, you go from being fierce and intense to reserved and mysterious. People don’t know what to expect from you, and you have a great time keeping them guessing.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Of course you’d rather be respected than feared. However, when a person hops to attention to get a job done for you because he or she is afraid of what will happen otherwise, you can’t help but feel secretly pleased.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You decide ahead of time that you’re going to have fun and find something to like about the people with whom you share your time. It’s easy for you to find words that are true and kind.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ll meet a new person and have a strong reaction. You may feel repelled or attracted; you could convey rejection or acceptance. You’ll feel your choice in the matter and be as loving as possible.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Oct. 20).

You’ll enjoy the attention and respect you get this year. When love is the furthest thing from your mind, it comes rushing into your life. November will challenge your old way of thinking and force you to come up with empowering new habits. Your openhearted generosity will make a difference in the world.

Cancer and Gemini people adore you.

Your lucky numbers are: 10, 3, 33, 29 and 16.

TUNDRA

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’re an oracle of sorts. You can see where a situation is going and predict the outcome. Be forewarned, though: The oracle’s message is not always so welcome.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The one who works and reworks a project is quite remarkable in your book. You appreciate the effort, as well as the selflessness involved. Humility will lead to greatness in this person and in yourself.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You don’t always feel the need to embrace your loved ones. After all, they already know how much you love them, right?

They know, but they need reminding.

Each embrace fortifies the bond.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Keep in mind that the best discourse has a flow to it. Don’t let your social scene get sticky. Excessive talking is bad news for both the speaker and the listener. Know when enough is enough. Interrupt talk with action.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Thoughts become words, words become actions, and before you know it, your thoughts have created your habits and character. Controlling them is really hard right now, but you can definitely rein them in.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You know you’re important to another person when that person starts introducing you to family and friends. You’ll come off well in such encounters, as long as you don’t try too hard.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You enjoy people who are good conversationalists, but not people who talk on and on about themselves and don’t ask you questions or listen to what you have to say. Avoid those types today; they will

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Thursday, October 20, 2011— Page 21

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Dear Annie: Yesterday, our daughter-in-law announced that she did not want pictures of her children posted on Facebook. My wife is beside herself, saying that “Mary” has no right to do this.

My wife refuses to respect the request. She has many pictures of the grandchildren that she took and has already posted on Facebook. Personally, I agree with my daughter-in-law, and as a result, my wife won’t speak to me. She accused me of not being supportive because I’m taking Mary’s side. Can you help? Should my wife take the pictures down? -- Annoyed Husband Dear Annoyed: Yes, and for several reasons. It’s one thing to post a picture of an unknown drunk at a bar. That is fair game. But when someone specifically asks you to remove a picture, it is a sign of good will to do so. Also, these are photographs of children, and parents can be highly sensitive to having those pictures plastered in a public space. Your wife should be respectful of Mary’s parental authority.

But the overriding reason should be maintaining a warm and loving relationship with your daughter-in-law. By refusing this request, your wife is creating unnecessary rancor. Once the kids are posting their own pictures on Facebook, we suspect Mary will ease up. Please urge your wife to be patient. She can still display the photographs at home, in her purse or on her smartphone.

Dear Annie: I go to a wonderful doctor. The only problem is, he has horrendously bad breath. I don’t understand how a health care professional can have such terrible oral hygiene. You would think he knows better. He drinks coffee constantly, so I don’t know whether that’s contributing to the odor or whether he believes it covers it up.

The really perplexing thing is that he works in an office with several other people, including his wife, who is also a physician.

The nurses and receptionist all carry on conversations with him

like everything is fine. I was beginning to think his breath odor was a figment of my imagination until I referred a colleague to him. After her appointment, she told me, “He was really nice. Too bad his breath smells like something crawled into his mouth and died.”

I don’t have the guts to tell him, and I can’t understand why those closest to him don’t say anything. Shouldn’t a physician be on top of things like this? -- Puzzled Patient Dear Puzzled: You are assuming his halitosis is caused by poor oral hygiene, but that may not be the case. Sometimes there are underlying, even intractable reasons for bad breath, and your physician may be doing all he can to remedy the problem. If neither you nor anyone in his office is willing to speak up, we recommend you offer him a breath mint at your next visit. If you also pop one into your own mouth, it will lessen any embarrassment.

Dear Annie: I know how “Widowed and Confused” feels about dating again. I was widowed suddenly at the age of 45. For months, I went to work and came home and sat on my couch until bedtime. Then a good friend took me out to a bar with a live band.

When a man asked me to dance, I said yes.

My children were grown when their father died, and my oldest was upset to learn I was seeing someone. I said, “Can you tell me when Dad is going to come back? If you can, I’ll sit right here and wait for him.” After a few minutes, she replied, “You’re right, Mom. He’s not coming back, and you need to live your life.”

Tell “Widowed” to ask that same question of anyone who thinks she should mourn forever. If they can give her a “date of return” on her deceased husband, fine. I suspect they’ll see the simple truth and stop trying to make her feel guilty. -- Didn’t Wait Forever
