ALTON — The former second in command at the town’s police department will be paid $31,589 in wages for overtime he worked but for which he was never paid.

The information about a settlement agreement between former Lt. Richard Vanderhoof and the town of Alton is on file with the office of the Town Clerk and is part of a general release of all further claims either party may have against the other.

Vanderhoof was placed on paid administrative leave in November of 2010 for reasons never disclosed by town officials. After a lengthy investigation by an independent municipal research company that cost taxpayers $53,025, Vanderhoof was reinstated to his position and placed back on active duty.

Vaderhoof immediately began using accumulated vacation time and its unclear if he ever actually returned to work before the settlement was reached.

According to Town Administrator Russ Bailey, Vanderhoof gave notice of his intent to leave the police department and is no longer an Alton employee. see VaNdErHOOf page 8

Registrar of Deeds insists she’s on solid legal ground By michAel Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA — Barbara Luther, Belknap County Registrar of Deeds, said yesterday that she will contest the directive of the Belknap County Commissioners to close the registry’s accounts and deposit the taxes and fees it collects in the county general fund as independent auditors have recommended “I am an elected official that the voters have entrusted with the duties of the Registrar of Deeds,” Luther said. “The voters are my boss. The county commission and the county administrator are not my bosses.”

BOSTON (AP) — Cardinal Sean O’Malley on Thursday released a long-awaited list of priests accused of child sex abuse in Boston in the last 60 years, but he opted not to include certain priests, including ones who died without being publicly charged.

In a letter, O’Malley said 248 of Boston’s priests and two deacons have been accused of child sex abuse since 1950. But he said he decided against releasing 91 of the names, including the deceased priests who weren’t publicly accused; those working in Boston under religious orders or other dioceses; and priests named in unsubstantiated accusations that never went public.

Each of the 159 names published Thursday has been made public previously, though not necessarily by the archdiocese. They include still-active priests who were cleared of abuse see PRIESTS page 8

BUXTON, N.C. (AP) — A monstrous Hurricane Irene tightened its aim on the Eastern Seaboard on Thursday, threatening 65 million people along a shore-hugging path from North Carolina to New England. One of the nation’s top experts called it his “nightmare” scenario.

The Category 3 storm with winds of 115 mph — the threshold for a major hurricane — would be the strongest to strike the East Coast in seven years, and people were already getting out of the way.

Tens of thousands fled North Carolina beach towns, farmers pulled up their crops, and the Navy ordered ships to sea so they could endure the punishing wind and waves in open water.

All eyes were on Irene’s projected path, which showed it bringing misery to every city along the I-95 corridor, including Washington, New York and Boston. The former chief of the National Hurricane Center called it one of his three worst possible situations.

“One of my greatest nightmares was having a major hurricane go up the whole Northeast Coast,” Max Mayfield, the center’s retired director, told The Associated Press.

He said the damage will probably climb into billions of dollars: “This is going to have an impact on the United States economy.”

The head of the Federal Emergency Management Agency said damages could exceed most previous storms because so

many people live along the East Coast and property values are high.

“We’ve got a lot more people that are potentially in the path of this storm,” FEMA Director Craig Fugate said in an interview with The Associated Press. “This is one of the largest populations that will be impacted by one storm at one time.”

The storm would “have a lot of impact well away from the coastline,” he added.

“A little bit of damage over big areas with large populations can add up fast.”

Irene was massive, with tropical-force winds extending almost twice as far as normal, about the same size as Katrina, which devastated New Orleans in 2005. see IRENE page 10

TRIPOLI, Libya (AP) — The streets where rebel fighters bombarded snipers loyal to Moammar Gadhafi were strewn with bullet-ridden corpses from both sides Thursday. Streams of blood ran down the gutters and turned sewers red.

By sundown the rebels appeared to have won the battle for the Abu Salim neighborhood, next to Gadhafi’s captured Tripoli compound, but the fallen dictator continued to elude them. Speaking from an unknown location, he exhorted his supporters to fight on.

“Don’t leave Tripoli for the rats. Fight them, and kill them,” Gadhafi said in a new

audio message broadcast on Al-Ouroba TV, a Syria-based satellite station.

Outside his Bab al-Aziziya compound, which rebels captured Tuesday, there was another grim scene — one that suggested mass, execution-style killings of civilians.

About two dozen bodies — some with their hands bound by plastic ties and with bullet wounds to the head — lay scattered on grassy lots in an area where Gadhafi sympathizers had camped out for months.

The identities of the dead were unclear, but they were in all likelihood activists who had set up an impromptu tent city in solidarity with Gadhafi in defiance of the

NATO bombing campaign.

Five or six bodies were in a tent erected on a roundabout that had served as a field clinic. One of the dead still had an IV in his arm, and another body was completely charred, its legs missing. The body of a doctor, in his green hospital gown, was found dumped in the canal.

It was unclear who was responsible for the killings.

Rebels have seized most of Tripoli since sweeping into the capital on Sunday, and on Thursday they announced that their leadership was moving into the capital. see LIBYA page 10

Stocks sink, ending 3-day rally NEW YORK (AP) — Stock indexes fell sharply soon after trading began Thursday and then bounced around near their bottoms the rest of the day, ending a three-day rally.

Indexes in both the U.S. and Europe sank after Germany’s main stock index, the DAX, suddenly dipped 4 percent. Traders struggled to explain the dive. The Dow Jones industrial average closed down 170.89 points, or 1.5 percent, to close at 11,149.82. It had been up 85 points the first few minutes of trading.

Bank of America Corp. jumped 9 percent on news that Warren Buffett will invest $5 billion in the troubled bank. BofA had lost half its value this year as investors worried about its need to raise capital and its growing liabilities related to subprime mortgages. BofA stock was up 26 percent early, to $8.80, and closed at $7.65, up 66 cents.

Other banks also rose after the billionaire investor gave his backing to Bank of America. Morgan Stanley gained 2.7 percent and Citigroup Inc. 4.8 percent. BofA and American Express Co. were the only two of the 30 companies in the Dow to rise.

This week’s trading has been marked by a series of sudden reversals. Robert Stein, a money manager responsible for $1.2 billion at Astor Asset Management, said questions about the economy have made investors uncertain and the stock market more volatile. Gains made one day have disappeared the next, or even in the same day.

“We’re not seeing anything that’s convincingly bearish enough to call another recession, but nothing optimistic enough to suggest that a recovery is going to regenerate,” Stein said.

Friday could be another day of big swings as Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke gives a highly anticipated speech at a conference in Jackson Hole, Wyo. Bernanke speaks at 10 a.m. EDT. Earlier Thursday, the government reported an increase in the number of people applying for unemployment benefits last week. The Labor Department said applications rose to 417,000, the highest in five weeks, but the figure was inflated by a strike at Verizon that earlier this week.

The S&P 500 index fell 18.33 points, or 1.6 percent, to 1,159.27. The Nasdaq fell 48.06 points, or 1.9 percent, to 2,419.63.

Kimball says he won’t quit top N.H. GOP post CONCORD (AP) — The state’s embattled GOP chairman says he won’t resign despite pressure to quit from top party leaders.

Jack Kimball, a tea party activist, says he represents a movement that’s much larger than him and that’s crucial to the party’s future.

Kimball held firm even as U.S. Sen. Kelly Ayotte and a majority of the party’s executive board called for new leadership in a letter dated Wednesday. The board will vote Sept. 1 on whether to remove Kimball.

Some Republicans are unhappy about recent GOP losses in special elections for House seats. Some raised concerns about the lack of cash in the party’s accounts. Two events in recent weeks coalesced support for Kimball’s ouster.

At a special election in Barrington two weeks ago, Kimball signed a petition he thought was in support of giving a Libertarian Party candidate access to a ballot line. It was actually a petition to give Libertarians broader access to ballots in general.

Last week, Kimball fired popular GOP executive director Will Wrobleski.

Former GOP state chairman Fergus Cullen said Kimball’s signing of the Libertarian petition was “a critical tipping point.”

Rep. Shawn Jasper, a Hudson Republican, said he

found it “horrifying that a Republican Party chairman thought it was a good idea to have another candidate, not a Republican, run against a Republican.”

Kimball says ousting him will create a deep divide in the party. He says the party’s lean coffers are a result of his efforts to retire old debt.

At a press conference Thursday, Kimball stressed his tea party affiliation and blamed the rift on differences between the tea party and what he described as “the establishment.”

“One of the major goals of my chairmanship is to help the party move into the future, but sadly there are some who are still stuck in the past,” Kimball said.

Ayotte was joined in her call for Kimball’s resignation by the party’s top echelon, including congressmen Frank Guinta and Charlie Bass, Senate President Peter Bragdon, House Speaker William O’Brien and GOP national committeeman Steve Duprey.

In a joint statement, Ayotte and the others thanked Kimball for his time and effort but added, “To ensure that all of the party’s energy and resources are solely focused on electing Republicans, we believe it is time to move beyond this serious distraction.”

Kimball said the request for his resignation “comes as quite a shock to me.” He remained adamant that he will not step down.

Death of pitching great Flanagan ruled a suicide BALTIMORE (AP) — Former Cy Young award winner Mike Flanagan died of a self-inflicted shotgun wound to the head, the Maryland medical examiner ruled Thursday.

A police investigation revealed that the 59-yearold pitcher was upset about financial issues. He left no note.

Flanagan’s body was found Wednesday afternoon about 250 feet behind his home. An investigation showed he was home alone when he took his life.

“It’s very tragic. He was a good friend. I just wished I’d known he was having a struggle,” former Orioles player and manager Davey Johnson said. “I’d sure liked to have talked to him. It’s just a terrible loss.

Everybody who knew Flanny loved him. He was always a delight to be around.”

Now manager of the Nationals, Johnson spoke about Flanagan before Washington hosted Arizona.

“I was pretty shaken,” Johnson said. “I wished I had a chance to talk to him, and cheer him up like he’s done me in the past.”

Flanagan, a Manchester, N.H. native, won the Cy Young Award in 1979 and helped the Baltimore Orioles win the 1983 World Series. After his retirement, he worked for the Orioles as a coach and in the front office before settling into a job as color commentator on the team’s broadcast network.

Politics not an easy place for people used to giving orders I believe there is a certain kind of character that does not do well in politics.

Self-made millionaires.

Tough, impatient, independent.

These are people who can make a great success of themselves in business, but mostly fail when they enter the arcane world of public office.

Note Governor Craig Benson, a guy who built a multi-million dollar corporation out of the puttering he and his partner did with computer cables and routers in a garage while little more than kids. Their company, Cabeltron Systems, at one time was the state’s largest employer.

Benson’s swagger and pushy ways did not go over-well with the other prima donnas at the Statehouse, or even the voters, who threw him out after just one term.

There is Bill Binnie, son a first generation Scot and janitor, who put himself through Harvard and has amassed a huge fortune. A race car driver (read Le-Mans, not NASCAR), Binnie is currently happily putting together what will likely be a very successful and lucrative commercial television operation. No easy task.

But as a candidate for the U.S. Senate last year, he was dreadful.

Now there is Jack Kimball, in trouble as chairman of the Republican State Committee. After he got out of the Navy, Kimball toughed his way through college while working full-time. He later built a successful commercial maintenance business worth millions. He was an unsuccessful candidate for governor in the Republican primary last year.

But now, the five top GOP officerholders of his party, including a U.S. Senator, no less, and a bunch of others, are asking him to resign. He was elected party chairman only six months ago.

The problem with guys like these is simple. They find it difficult to deal in the currency of politics, which is not the dollars and cents they are used to.

The currency of politics is drudgery for these doers, who are mostly outsiders. After the thrill and highfiving of a won election, comes the reality that fills this world of com-

promise and palaver, dickering, and hind-end kissers. This is not a happy place for people who are all about giving orders, taking names, and driving race cars, who build great and mighty businesses that generate wealth in the millions, which are actually works of art.

I’ve heard it all my life. “What we need to do is run this state like a business.”

But government is not a business. It creates no wealth, produces no goods, and is filled with complicated problems, most of which are not easily addressed because of the many competing voices (constituencies, is the term), that must and will be heard, respected, or at least somewhat paid attention to, even with fiend patience, if necessary.

I don’t know why Jack Kimball’s career as Republican Party Chairman is blowing up. I have never met the man. I suspect it could be partly because Mr. Kimball is an outsider who has elbowed his way into an insider’s paradise. His sudden arrival to such a lofty office has maybe upset the agendas of certain of the party royalty, including some dedicated worker bees. These people have not been especially helpful in fundraising, nor shown to have much enthusiasm in rolling up their sleeves to help this Johnny-Come-Lately, this Tea-Partier, this Jack Who? Still, one who is up to such a high job could, no should, be able to overcome such difficulties, formidable as they may be, and not let circumstances unravel the way they have.

Not, that is, unless this kind of work is just not Mr. Kimball’s cup of tea after all.

Meanwhile the situation is turning into a most embarrassing sideshow of national interest, just as New Hampshire’s First-in-the Nation Presidential Primary is ready to launch.

Jack, pretty soon, somebody, somewhere needs to deal with this, nimble, and quick.

A bigot or racist shouldn’t be tolerated, no mater their heritage To the editor, Once again Professor Sandy has treated us to his illogical logic, as he believes racism is wholly within the purview of the white race. The professor has deemed that bigotry or hatred expressed by a non-white person should be condoned, because, as he puts it, only white people have power.

As a person of native American heritage, under Sandy’s illogical logic, I should not be criticized for any big-

oted or racist statements I may make — those are his rules, not mine.

I would like to challenge the professor to do the right thing and refute what he wrote in his Tuesday column.

A bigot or a racist should not be tolerated no matter what their heritage may be.

Professor Sandy teaches our children.

LETTERS How about the promises made to N.H.’s families and the poor?

To the editor, Yesterday, Rep. Robert Kingsbury (who represents me and my fellow Laconians in the N.H. Legislature) wrote a stirring letter to this paper about the tragedy of broken promises. Referencing his experience as a WWII combat veteran, he expressed his feeling that he is duty-bound to protect those to whom promises were made but not kept by New Hampshire officeholders.

Mr. Kingsbury, I applaud your commitment to, in your words “alleviate... the agony being caused by broken promises.” As one of your constituents, I thought I might offer some suggestions on where you might start. For example, by cutting aid to New Hampshire Legal Assistance by $1-million, the Legislature forced the public interest law center to close offices and lay off staff. This will make it more difficult for low-income individuals (including the disabled, senior citizens, and veterans) to seek access to justice.

Also, by cutting the state’s contribution to New Hampshire’s public universities by $48.- million (an approximately 50-percent cut), the Legislature forced the university system to lay off roughly 200 employ-

ees and increase tuition on in-state students by as much as 10-percent.

This will make it more difficult for New Hampshire families to send their kids to college in-state and will place New Hampshire at a disadvantage in retaining college-educated workers.

Finally, by eliminating the disproportionate-share funding system for Medicaid reimbursement, the Legislature imposed $250-million in new taxes on New Hampshire hospitals, including LRGHealthcare here in Laconia. As a consequence, Medicaid recipients’ access to care is being threatened, hospital employees are losing their jobs, and programs and services are being cut back if not axed altogether.

I believe that members of a community come together and promise to look after one another, especially the least fortunate, and that this promise is imputed upon our elected representatives through the Constitution. Mr. Kingsbury, I am honored by your prior service to your country, and I urge you to act in the Legislature’s upcoming session to redress the promises it broke to New Hampshire families, businesses, and the poor.

Rather than use surpluses to pay down debt, Bush reduced taxes To the editor, I remember back in 2001 when the government was actually running surpluses and could have paid back every dime it ever borrowed. Then President George W. Bush decided to return money to the taxpayers already favored and set in motion the deficit we face today. Rather than use surpluses to pay down the national debt, Bush chose to push through two massive tax cuts, wage two unfunded wars at the cost of $1.3-trillion, spent $272-million on an unfunded Medicare prescription benefit (benefiting drug companies more than Medicare clients). When the economy tanked in 2008, it cut deeply into revenues already diminished by Bush’s tax cuts.

Let us not forget that post World War II federal tax revenues were averaging around 18.9-percent.

Today’s rate is about 14.5-percent, primarily due to the Bush tax cuts. The

rich have gotten richer, the poor have gotten poorer and a nation that so recently had a surplus has only narrowly escaped defaulting on its debts.

One would like to think that if any of us responsible for our family’s budget found a surplus of cash in our checking account we’d use it to pay down our long-term debt rather than giving gifts to our rich relatives, yet that is the pivotal choice made by George W. Bush.

Congressional Budget Office statistics show, Bush’s policies account for more than $7-trillion of the debt the U.S. has accumulated over the past decade.

President Obama’s policies, including his $719-billion stimulus program, have added $1.7-trillion to that debt.

Both parties share some of the blame, but it all began with a choice, 10 years ago, to cut taxes to their lowest level in 60 years, with no cuts in spending.

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Friday, August 26, 2011 — Page 5

LETTERS Unless you pay income tax you aren’t a stakeholder in America To the editor, Lynda Johnson of Center Harbor writes on Wednesday that she is the truth source on taxes. She was irate that people keep quoting the statistic that 45-percent of Americans pay no income taxes because these same people pay other taxes, including payroll taxes which stop being taken after $106,800 in wages, which means this burden falls primarily on the poor and middle class.

She makes her argument and I understand it. Now let me fill in some missing gaps of information and logic that she omitted because it does not support the liberalist view of social and economic justice in America.

The correct percentage that do not pay ANY INCOME TAXES in America is 46-percent and the number has been rising for years. If Democrats could legislate it the number AVOIDING income taxes would be 90-percent. Tens of millions already have a NEGATIVE income tax through earned income credits, child credits and other credits in the tax code, meaning government actually “ pays them” to work, in essence refunding their payroll withholding back to them.

It is true everyone who works endures payroll tax deductions from their very first dollar of earnings. A cost burden equally shared between employee and employer. Although identified as “taxes” in reality “ withholding” is not taxes at all. It is really a lifetime, INDIVIDUAL deduction to pre fund one’s OWN RETIREMENT and HEALTH CARE costs for their non-working years. These programs are actually DESIGNED such that every person gets every dollar of their contribution RETURNED TO THEM. Truth is just about everyone gets FAR MORE out of those two programs than

they ACTUALLY contribute, which is a key cause of America’s structural deficit problems going forward. That would be most true of MEDICARE. Federal income taxes are PURE TAXES of the highest order. You do not get ANY income taxes back and UNLESS you are paying federal income taxes you are not contributing one penny to pay the cost of government. Any person who does not pay income taxes is not a STAKEHOLDER in America. Such non-stakeholders ONLY demand more programs that benefit them for which they PAY ZERO and they ONLY VOTE for candidates that promise more spending.

America becomes a nation filled to the brim with people who care NOTHING about controlling the costs of government. Much like today’s MESS. Hundreds of millions of people avoiding federal income taxes is a major societal problem. What ever other taxes such people pay is immaterial to the core STAKEHOLDER problem. European, socialist, welfare states (going bankrupt, I might add) recognize this very issue. They force income taxes on to almost everyone no matter how little they make. They recognize clearly the validity of the stakeholder argument. Only the most indigent in Europe are allowed to escape income taxes.

The Lynda’s of this world want a European socialist model with an American tax structure where only a relative small percentage actually pay the cost of government but ALL share the benefit bounty. This approach causes much social stress and civil unrest that immediately transforms itself into a class war fare shouting match. Lynda’s article is in fact class war fare rhetoric.

Roger’s Ride for a Cure Roger’s Ride is in Memory of Roger Cochran Ballantyne of Laconia, New Hampshire who passed away on August 29, 2008 after fighting a courageous battle with Kidney Cancer since his diagnosis in 1996. Roger will always be remembered as a kind and fun loving person. Roger dedicated his life to his family, friends and community.

I’m not playing along. I have lawful right to protect myself. Period To the editor, While I’m sure that Sheriff Wiggin is a fine man and truly desires a peaceful world like the rest of us, I must disagree with his stance on the “stand your ground” law. As a long time peace officer he must realize that the police most always arrive after a crime has taken place. I’ll admit that occasionally an officer is able to intercede during the commission of a crime and in some very rare cases even before.

It is not the American way to turn our back on people in crisis or trouble and to suggest that I do just that and call for law enforcement is shirking our responsibility to one another as citizens of this great country. I believe that it is just this mentality that has turned our country from the truly “united” states that it once was into the crime-ridden society that we now live in. Don’t get involved for that criminal will soon be out and looking for you. Turn your back or else YOU may be charged with a crime (ala Ward Bird). This is the mentality that we’ve adopted due to asinine laws saying that we must retreat from crime. We’ve enabled the criminals.

Sorry, I’m not playing along. Any-

where in this country that I have a right to lawfully be, I have a lawful right to protect myself, period. To say otherwise is to deny me, the law abiding citizen, a constitutional right to life, liberty etc. Surely, if there is an officer around I would alert him to the situation but in his absence I am not going to look for an avenue of escape while someone’s 70-year-old grandmother is being knifed and robbed.

Charge me with what you will but while I’m in jail reading Nana’s letter of thanks that assailant will be doing the dirt nap.

The use of deadly force is a very serious subject and it’s application is already covered by hundreds of laws covering thousands of situations. Any person who carries a weapon and doesn’t know these laws inside and out is a fool. I pray that I will never see the day that I would have to protect myself or a member of my family by taking another person’s life but I have resigned myself to the fact that, should it come down to that, it will not be me or one of my loved ones in the pine box.

PSU delays move-in until Tues.

PLYMOUTH — Because of forecasts of dangerous weather from Hurricane Irene, Plymouth State University will delay its student move-in, originally scheduled for Saturday and Sunday August 27 and August 28, until Tuesday August 30. Registration and orientation activities will be held Wednesday August 31. The start of classes will be announced through the Plymouth State website.

PSU Move-In typically features 5,000 people (students and parents) descending on Plymouth and rescheduling it, for any reason, is unprecedented, said university spokesman Bruce Lyndes.

“We realize this delay may inconvenience some students and families, but the top priority for university officials is student safety,” said Lyndes.

“This is predicted to be a very dangerous storm with possible power

outages, localized flooding, and other hazardous conditions on campus and en route to campus.”

The PSU campus also serves the local community as an emergency shelter. Although the campus will be closed for move-in, students already on campus will be accommodated, but those who are able to go home safely are encouraged to do so and return Tuesday.

PSU officials are currently working with local police and other agencies to develop new move-in plans for Tuesday. Information will be posted on the Plymouth State website (plymouth. edu) and available through the PSU stormline (603-535-3535).

Notices will also be sent through the PSU text alert system. Students who have not yet opted in to the service should register at http://go.plymouth. edu/alert.

REFUGEES from page one Lutheran Social Services for new Americans, sent out an e-mail to her contacts earlier this month, warning that the refugee families that her agency helps settle in New Hampshire were among those put at risk by cuts to a state unemployment benefit program designed for parents of dependent children. The benefit is intended to prevent families from becoming homeless.

“I’m letting everyone on my address list know about a situation in New Hampshire that concerns me greatly,” Marchildon wrote.

As far as Laconia’s refugees, though, Marchildon’s concern has since abated. She reported last week that there were 27 of the families Lutheran Social Services assists who were affected by the cut in assistance, and that two of those families were in Laconia.

A member of one of those local families was subsequently able to find work and the other moved away in search of better opportunities.

Considering the circumstances, Marchildon said the recent refugees to Laconia have settled rather well into the city. Since 2007, 173 individuals have been placed in Laconia. Most of them have been Bhutanese who spent more than a decade in refugee camps in Nepal after being kicked out of their home country.

“New Hampshire is a great place to do resettlement,” said Marchildon.

As in other cities where refugees have been successfully resettled, Lutheran Social Services program manager Augustin Ntabaganyimana said Laconia’s success so far has been due to a dedicated group of volunteers who have been trained by Lutheran Social Services. In Laconia, the volunteers are organized through the Refugee Connections Committee, a subcommittee of the Laconia Human Rights Committee, a mayor’s advisory committee.

The volunteers provide help with basics of contemporary American life, such as how to use door locks and debit cards. They provide transportation for shopping trips or to medical appointments. They know which services to call to help meet immediate needs, and act as a liaison between

the refugee committee, Lutheran Social Services and the city. The Refugee Connections Committee includes representatives of city departments and non-profit agencies which might interact with refugees.

The Laconia Refugee Connections Committee is chaired by Carol Pierce.

She said part of the group’s success has been due to a manageable number of refugees. “We don’t have so many refugees that we can’t keep track of them all,” she said. “There isn’t any refugee that is unknown.”

Pierce said volunteers are quick to contact refugees when they’ve moved in and help them find apartments and employment. As a committee attached to City Hall, Pierce said that a priority of the group is to ensure that the refugees do not become a burden on the city’s welfare department. “Our main goal is that they feel included and part of the community as much as possible.”

Helping them to become part of the community, Lakes Region Community College has created classes for refugees, such as an upcoming accent reduction class. Lutheran Social Services, using grant funding from the University of New Hampshire’s Center for Disabilities, organized a class for refugees interested in becoming employed as personal care providers. Twelve people enrolled in the class, half of whom have since been hired to work in that capacity.

Ntabaganyimana said the Bhutanese culture lends its members to health care, an industry that offers immediate job opportunities as well as the possiblity of career advancement.

“They are very hospitable. They love to help, very nurturing. Yeah, they’re gaining income, but they’re also contributing to the community that welcomed them.”

In addition to personal health care, refugees have found employment in the hospitality industry, retail, seasonal agriculture and in manufacturing. Ntabaganyimana said it’s taken refugees from five to 10 months to find work, while in better economic times most refugees have been hired within four months of arrival.

Thirty-two year old Nandu Mishra arrived in the city in December, 2009. see next page

Oct. 5 hearing date set in hospital’s suit against the state over Medicaid money

By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

CONCORD — United States District Court Judge Steven McAuliffe has ordered a hearing in the lawsuit brought against the state of New Hampshire by 10 of its largest hospitals, including LRGHealthcare, for October 5.

Together with a class of patients identified as “John Doe,” the hospitals have charged that the state’s administration of the Medicaid program threatens access of the poor, elderly and disabled to medical care by undermining the financial integrity of the hospitals.

The hospitals have asked the court to bar the state from implementing provisions of the 2012-2013 state budget bearing on the Medicaid program as well as to rescind legislation enacted in 2005 authorizing the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) to reduce reimbursement rates paid to hospitals for treating Medicaid patients solely for budgetary reasons.

Meanwhile, the United States Supreme Court will open its 2011 term by considering whether medical care providers, including hospitals, and patients can challenge reductions in Medicaid reimbursement rates from preceding page He had spent 19 years in a refugee camp in Nepal, where he worked as a school administrator for a rural district. To avoid social discrimination, he hid from his co-workers the fact that he was a refugee and instead led them to believe that he was from Darjheeling, India.

While at the refugee camp, which he entered as a young boy, Mishra’s life seemed to be frozen in time. Since then, he said, it seems as if things have been progressing almost too quickly for him to savor. Three months after arriving, he got his driver’s license and was introduced to a woman, Pabitra Rigal, with whom an uncle had arranged a meeting. A month later, Mishra got his first American job, as a house painter. A month after that, he and Rigal were married. And four months ago, the couple had a son, Prajwal.

Mishra now works as a quality inspector at Freudenberg/NOK in Bristol and his wife has found work as a housekeeper. He likes life in Laconia, and hopes to switch from his overnight shift to one that allows him to take classes at Lakes Region Community College. He’d like to study some-

in federal court. The case originated in California, where the legislature reduced rates in 2008, 2009 and 2010 to address budget deficits. Providers and patients argued that the Medicaid Act requires that rates be high enough to attract sufficient providers to ensure access to services.

Although several courts agreed, the Supreme Court has ruled that in order to bring a civil rights action, a party must demonstrate that the law, in this case the Medicaid Act, clearly confers rights to services on individuals. In other words, the question before the court is one of “standing”.

Scott O’Connell of Nixon Peabody, LLP, who represents the New Hampshire hospitals in federal court, acknowledged that the issue before the Supreme Court bears on the case before the federal district court. However, he stressed that in addition to the procedural question before the Supreme Court, the suit brought by the hospitals also contends that the state has failed to meet its minimal obligations under the Medicaid Act. He said that a federal court in New York has ruled, in a decision that has not been appealed, that the substantive issue of whether the state is complying with federal law is a proper question for the court. thing in the health care field. “I am trying to be a good person. My desire from my childhood is to help others,” he said.

Looking back, Mishra views the help he received early on as enabling his current life. “I am here, I am doing good now because of the people who helped me in the beginning,” he said.

Mishra is glad to call Laconia home.

He has friends and relatives living in cities around the country and they tell him tales of urban strife. Some Bhutanese refugees have been killed in street crime and yet he feels safe in Laconia. “I do not feel any difficulties, not any troubles,” he said. “I feel here, very at peace.”

Laconia felt more like home for him before his parents left the city. Unlike members of Mishra’s generation, his parents don’t have good English skills and hoped they would have better luck finding work in Worcester, Mass.

Marchildon and Ntabaganyimana said they expect to resettle no more than 240 refugees in New Hampshire in the 12 month period beginning in October. They expected most would be placed in Nashua, with 10-percent or less of the total coming to Laconia.

LUTHER from page one county departments have complied with them, Luther has resisted the blandishments of Finance Director Glen Waring and County Administrator Debra Shackett. When the county commissioners met on Wednesday, chairman Ed Philpot expressed impatience with Luther’s refusal to comply. “This has gone on too long,” he said.

In support of their recommendation, the auditors cited the state law delineating the duties of county treasurers (RSA 29:1), which reads “the county treasurer shall have custody of all moneys belonging to the county, and shall pay out the same only upon orders of the commissioners.”

Luther, however, relies on the statute governing registers of deeds, a section of which (RSA 478:17i) stipulates that “Each register of deeds shall pay over once a month to his county treasurer, for use of the county, all fees received by him as such register and all charges paid to him for services arising out of or because of his office, including but not limited to payments for duties under RSA 78-B;8,” or the real estate transfer tax.

“The law is quite clear,” Luther said.”It requires me to transfer funds to the county treasurer every

month, which I do promptly.” She said that the registries of deeds are independently operated institutions headed by elected officials, not departments of county government. “I am an elected official,” she repeated, “not a county employee.”

Luther, who has worked at the registry since 1985, was appointed register in 2007 upon the retirement of Rachel Normandin and, since completing the unexpired portion of the term, has twice been elected to the position.

The registry collects fees for recording assignments and discharges of mortgages as well as for recording plats or plans showing property lines.

The registry also charges a fee of $25 for recording deeds, mortgages and plans, the proceeds of which support the Land and Community Heritage Program. Finally, the state real estate transfer tax, levied against buyers and sellers at $0.75 per $100 of value, is paid to registry, which transfers four-percent of the proceeds to the county and the balance to the state.

Luther said before the slump in the real estate market the registry handled between $3-million and $5-million a year, sums that have since dwindled close to $1-million. She said that each month she

distributes the funds as state law prescribes. “I file monthly reports,” she said, “and they are welcome to look at my accounts whenever they wish. My records are always open to inspection.”

Luther has retained Phillip McLaughlin as her personal attorney. He is expected to meet with attorney Paul Fitzgerald, representing the county, in an effort to resolve the issue. Meanwhile, the commissioners have asked Luther to appear at their next regularly scheduled meeting on September 7.

“I will be happy to attend the meeting,” she said, “and I will certainly bring my attorney.”

VANDERHOOF from page one The release and settlement of litigation also states that it is a compromise and the town “expressly denies any and all liability, wrongdoing, and culpability regarding the litigation.”

Vanderhoof also agreed to file a docket marking agreement with prejudice for Docket No. 219-2011-CV00022 with Strafford County Superior Court to end the litigation. According to an on-line legal dictionary, the words “with prejudice” means that the contents of the suit are admissible against him, particularly if the contents run against that person’s interests.

Vanderhoof also agreed to pay any and all taxes owed on the $31,589 as it is considered wages. Taxes consistent with his employment with the town will be withheld from the payment.

After he was placed on administrative leave, Vanderhoof had originally sued the town for $124,105 in unpaid on-call overtime pay. He also claimed he was not allowed to include $3,584 in overtime hours on his time card and was not paid $1,247 in overtime pay for performing breath analyses tests when he was the only one in the department certified to perform them.

As of early July, for time he was on administrative leave, the town had paid Vanderhoof about $50,000 in salary as well as paying town Attorney Jim Sessler $10,967, $4,472 to Gallagher, Callahan and Gartrell of Concord, $16,986 to Cook, Little and Rosenblatt of Manchester and $4,864 to Martin, Lord and Osman of Laconia.

Vanderhoof could not be reached for comment and Police Chief Ryan Heath has never commented, saying the issue was a personnel matter.

PRIESTS from page 2 after being publicly accused.

O’Malley acknowledged that some people may have wanted him to “go further” and release more names. But he cited concerns about due process and the damage to the reputations of priests — alive and dead — when accused of decades-old crimes that are difficult to verify.

“In the present environment, a priest who is accused of sexually abusing a minor may never be able to fully restore his reputation, even if cleared after civil or canonical proceedings,” O’Malley said.

“Reputational concerns also become acute in cases concerning deceased priests, who are often accused years after their death with no opportunity to address the accusations against them.”

O’Malley said the archdiocese’s effort to compile a single list of accused clerics was a step toward taking responsibility for clergy sex abuse. A national scandal broke in Boston in 2002 which revealed church leaders had shifted pedophile priests between parishes while hiding their crimes.

“I carry with me every day the pain of the church’s failures,” O’Malley said.

Stephen Clifford, who says he was abused by a priest while growing up in Wellesley, said he was pleased the archdiocese was “letting some more daylight in” but disappointed his abuser, who is dead, wasn’t listed. Clifford never went public with his accusation, which the archdiocese found credible enough to agree to pay for Clifford’s therapy, he said.

“I know that they know what this priest did to me,” Clifford said. “And the fact that he’s not on this list really makes me wonder, ‘Gosh, how many more are there like him that should be on the list, who aren’t?’”

Boston has been pressured to publish a list — as other dioceses have — since O’Malley said in a 2009 letter that the archdiocese was considering improving its policy on

Laconia’s Bernie Boutin, prince of Kennedy era politics in New Hampshire dies at 88

By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

LACONIA — Bernard “Bernie” Boutin, a former mayor of Laconia who in 1906 engineered the triumph of John F. Kennedy in the New Hampshire Presidential Primary, passed away at the age of 88 on Wednesday. Most recently he was a Meredith resident.

(See obituary on page 14.)

Born in Belmont, Boutin was just 32 when he was elected to the first of his two terms as mayor of Laconia in 1955. He was one of a talented corps of local Democrats that included future United States Senator Thomas McIntyre, United States Representative J. Oliva Huot, United States District Judge Hugh Bownes and prominent local attorney Paul Normandin whose efforts were rewarded by the ascendancy of the party throughout the state in the 1960s.

After managing dark horse Estes Kefauver to vic-

tory in the 1956 Democratic presidential primary, Boutin was named to the Democratic National Committee. He twice topped the ticket as a candidate for governor in 1958 and 1960, losing each time primarily because he devoted his skills and energies to the campaigns of others.

In 1960 he turned his hand to Kennedy’s fortunes, spearheading his primary and presidential campaigns in New Hampshire. The day after Kennedy was elected president, he called Boutin, who had returned to his insurance agency, telling him “sell the business and come to Washington with me.”

Boutin was named deputy administrator of the General Services Administration (GSA), the first of a string of appointments that kept in Washington for the next seven years. Within a year he rose to head of the GSA, leaving in 1964 to coordinate Lyndon Johnson’s presidential bid in New England and New see next page

IRENE from page 2 “It’s not going to be a Katrina, but it’s serious,” said MIT meteorology professor Kerry Emanuel. “People have to take it seriously.”

The governors of North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, New York and New Jersey declared emergencies to free up resources, and authorities all the way to New England urged residents in lowlying areas to gather supplies and learn the way to a safe location.

Irene was expected to come ashore Saturday in North Carolina with 115 mph winds and a storm surge of 5 to 10 feet. It could dump a foot of rain, with as much as 15 inches falling in some places along the coast and around Chesapeake Bay. With heavy rain and storm surge predicted for the nation’s capital, organizers postponed Sunday’s dedication of the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial on the National Mall.

Already in South Florida near West Palm Beach, authorities blame the rough ocean churned up by the outer bands of Irene caused eight people to be injured when a wave knocked them off a jetty. Also, a man swimming off Jupiter was swept away by a large wave, but later ended up ashore.

Scientists predict Irene will then chug up the coast. Some forecasts showed it taking dead aim at New York City, with its eye passing over Brooklyn and Manhattan before weakening and trudging through New England.

If the storm strikes New York, it will probably be a Category 1 or 2, depending on its exact track, hurricane specialist John Cangialosi said.

Hurricanes are rare in the Northeast because the region’s cooler seas tend to weaken storms as they approach, and they have to take a narrow track to strike New York without first hitting other parts of the coast and weakening there.

LIBYA from page 2 The rebel National Transitional Council has been based in the eastern city of Benghazi, which fell to rebel forces early in the conflict.

“In the name of the martyrs ... I proclaim the beginning ... of the work of the executive office in a free Tripoli as of this moment,” Ali Tarhouni, the council’s finance minister, told reporters in Tripoli.

“I have a final message for everyone who is still carrying arms against the revolution,” he said, “to let go of their arms and go back to their homes, and we promise not to take revenge against them.”

The rebels know they cannot declare a full victory in the 6-month-old civil war as long as Gadhafi has not been captured or killed. There was no sign of the leader or his sons, despite rumors that swirled around the battlefield that they may be hiding inside

some of the besieged buildings in Abu Salim.

The neighborhood, where battles have raged for days, is thought to be the last major stronghold of regime brigades in Tripoli, though there has also been ongoing fighting around the airport. Many of the pro-Gadhafi forces in Abu Salim are believed to have fled his Bab al-Aziziya compound after rebels captured it Tuesday, and the neighborhood is among the few places in Tripoli where pro-Gadhafi graffiti has not been painted over.

Rebel fighters moved methodically through the neighborhood — some on foot, wearing shorts and carrying machine guns, and others in long lines of pickup trucks with weapons mounted on the back.

They fired anti-aircraft guns and rockets, trying to clear buildings of Gadhafi defenders.

3 men pitched from pickup traveling in Belmont BELMONT — Three local men escaped without serious injuries when they were thrown from a pickup truck when it left Union Road near Maynard Drive, struck a utility pole and collided with a tree around 10:30 p.m. on Wednesday.

Andrew Grant, 21, of 152 Wildlife Boulevard, was driving the 1996 Chevrolet pickup truck. Tyler Bisson 18, also of 152 Wildlife Boulevard, and Tom Violette, 19, of Woodland Drive, were passengers in from preceding page

In 1967 he returned to New Hampshire as director of corporate information services at Sanders Associates, Inc. in Nashua and two years later returned to

All three were ejected when the accident occurred.

They were transported to Lakes Region General Hospital, where they were treated for minor injuries and released.

Jo-Ann Fabric & Craft store at Belknap Mall adds 7,000-sq.-ft. and several new departments

By Michael Kitch THE LACONIA DAILY SUN

BELMONT — Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft store at the Belknap Mall hosted an open house Thursday to celebrate an expansion which has seen the store grow from 11,000- to 18,000-square-feet and add new products and services.

“When I walked in and saw the new store and all it has to offer I felt like I had died and gone to heaven,” said State Senator Jeanie Forrester of Meredith, a loyal customer who was on hand to take part in a ceremonial ribbon-cutting which opened the store’s makeover celebration.

Forrester, who honed her sewing skills to the point where she once even made wedding dresses, said that she has been a regular at the store for 10 years and that the expansion, which has added 24 jobs,

about two-thirds of which are part-time instructors for the classes offered at the store, is a good thing for the local economy.

“There’s good timing here. In this economy more people are making their own things and it’s a good time for the store to expand,” said Forrester.

The expansion provided temporary five-week jobs for 30 young people who worked to move walls and set up shelves according to Susan Murphy, store manager.

She said that in addition to the fabric, sewing, quilting and knitting and craft supplies that the store has always offered there will now be jewelry making, Wilton cake decorating and high-end custom framing at the store provided by well-known local photographer and framer Dick Shetler. see next page

MERRIMACK VALLEY

Danica Patrick racing NASCAR full-time in ‘12 SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) — With the not-so-subtle shape of a stock car under cover just in front of her and spotlights glaring in her face, Danica Patrick feigned drama for an announcement everyone already knew was coming.

“For breaking news that will shock the world ...,” she said facetiously on Thursday.

Peeling the lid off the worst-kept secret in auto racing, Patrick ended months of skirting questions about her future by officially declaring her plans to leave IndyCar in 2012 to race a full Nationwide season for JR Motorsports and a part-time Sprint Cup schedule with Stewart-Haas Racing.

One of the most marketable stars in auto racing, Patrick had been rumored to be headed to NASCAR even before she ran her first stock race, the ARCA series event at Daytona in 2010. Even while racing limited Nationwide schedules the past two years for Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s team, Patrick had deflected talk of her leaving IndyCar for the fenders of NASCAR. That all changed, at least officially, when she signed a contract with GoDaddy.com chairman Bob Parsons in front of TV cameras and a few dozen

cheering company employees on Thursday.

“If it was about money, I’d have gone a long time ago,” Patrick said from GoDaddy’s offices in north Scottsdale. “I just go where my heart tells me, where my gut tells me to go, where I’m enjoying my life the most, where I feel like I can have the most success.

I’ve truly enjoyed my experience in NASCAR, to the point that I want to do it full-time.”

Patrick will run most of her races in the lowertier Nationwide Series with only a handful of Sprint Cup races, but her switch to NASCAR should be a big boost to a sport that’s been hurt by a sagging economy and a dip in popularity from its heyday just a few years back.

With her telegenic looks, mass appeal, not to mention racy Super Bowl ads, Patrick brings something that’s hard to come by: star power.

“We are pleased Danica Patrick has chosen to race full time in NASCAR in 2012,” NASCAR chairman and CEO Brian France said in a statement.

“She has demonstrated a strong desire to compete and NASCAR provides the best opportunity to race against the top drivers in the world .”

from preceding page very lucky to have landed him. He does outstanding work and our customers will appreciate the quality of the work he does,” says Murphy.

Murphy says that the store is expanding the number of classes it offers in such areas as knitting, quilting, cake decorating, crocheting and jewelry making and has added classes for teens as well.

One popular feature will be the “Make It and Take It” sessions for young people which will enable them to make gifts and take it home with them the same day.

“We’re already adding new instructors and our education specialist Claudette Menard has all of the September classes already scheduled,’’ said Murphy.

The store also sells equipment which for printing T-shirts, decorating cakes and tie-dying, which is making a strong comeback as a popular hobby.

She said another popular feature will be a deli style system for the fabric counter in which people can take a number and shop while waiting for their number to be called for cutting the fabric to the desired length.

Customers at yesterday’s open house said they were thrilled with the appearance of the store and the many new products being offered.

“This is really wonderful. It looks great in here,’’ said Joan Connelly of Moultonborough, a retired nurse who stops by about once a month to pick up yarn for knitting and quilting material.

Dawn Campbell of Laconia is another longtime customer, who knits, sews and makes jewelry as gifts for her family.

“There are lots of children, lots of babies, so I’m

always in here buying what I need to make things for them,” says Campbell.

Murphy, who grew up in Belmont and graduated from Belmont High School in 1977, says that she has always been a crafts person and that managing the store is a dream job for her.

“I was in management when I worked in manufacturing but decided to go in a new direction because there were so many layoffs. I wasn’t sure that the management part would carry over into retail but a friend told me about a job at the Concord Jo-Ann store and I applied and got the job,” said Murphy.

She was with the Concord store for five years before taking over as manager of the Belmont store four years ago.

“It was a big challenge. But we’ve put a good team in place here. They even came in on a Sunday night once to help move walls and rearrange the shelves and make the displays more orderly and appealing,’’ said Murphy.

She said that it has been fun in recent weeks to see the reaction of the customers to the newly expanded store.

“They’ve been very excited about the changes and we’ve had a lot of good, positive comments. We have an awesome team here of very friendly people who are all about making our customers have a good time while they’re here shopping,” says Murphy.

Paige Quigley, general manager of the Belknap Mall, said that she was impressed with the expanded store and how good it looks.

“I couldn’t be more excited about the store’s expansion and what it will bring to the mall,” said Quigley.

Where did the summer go? It seems like such a blur

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Adrian Gonzalez homered twice to give him five in four games, Andrew Miller pitched three-hit ball in a spot start and the Boston Red Sox beat the Texas Rangers 6-0 on Thursday night.

Miller threw 6 1-3 impressive innings and the Red Sox took the final three matchups in a four-game series between AL division leaders.

Gonzalez hit a solo shot in the first inning and a two-run drive in the third off Alexi Ogando (12-6), giving him homers on three consecutive swings — including one in the eighth inning of Boston’s 13-2 victory Wednesday night.

Gonzalez, who had his 13th career multihomer game, had gone 84 at-bats without a long ball before homering in the first inning of Tuesday night’s 11-5 win.

David Ortiz and Jarrod Saltalamacchia also connected for the Red Sox, who have won six of eight and remain one game ahead of New York in the AL East. The Yankees pounded Oakland 22-9 earlier Thursday.

Miller (6-1) struck out six and walked two in his 10th start of the season. The lanky left-hander, who has also pitched in relief twice this season, got the assignment because manager Terry Francona pushed right-hander Tim Wakefield back a day, giving the knuckleballer his sixth shot at his 200th victory at home Friday night against Oakland.

The Rangers, who have dropped five of six, held a seven-game lead in the AL West over the Los Angeles Angels on Aug. 17. That margin has shrunk to

two games entering Friday night’s opener of a threegames series between the teams in Texas.

The streaking Angels, who have won six straight, were idle Thursday.

Ogando allowed a career-high four homers — the same number he yielded in his previous 12 starts — among his six runs and six hits in four innings as he failed to join C.J. Wilson as the Rangers’ second 13-game winner.

Texas was a 4-0 winner in the opener of the series, but Boston took the final three games by a total score of 30-7.

With two outs and nobody on in the first, Gonzalez lofted Ogando’s fastball onto the grass hill beyond the center-field wall.

Ortiz led off the second with a drive into the rightfield seats for his 25th homer to give Boston a 2-0 pad. Ortiz had missed nine games because of bursitis in his right heel before returning to the lineup Wednesday night when he went 2 for 5 and scored twice.

Ortiz has his eighth 25-homer season for Boston, second in club history behind Ted Williams’ 14. Ortiz started the night tied with Jim Rice at seven.

With Jed Lowrie on first after a walk in the third, Gonzalez pounded another Ogando fastball 448 feet into the Red Sox bullpen in left-center for his 23rd homer and a 4-0 edge.

Carl Crawford opened the fourth with a single and Saltalamacchia, traded by the Rangers to the Red Sox in July 2010, launched a two-run shot for his 13th of the season to stretch the lead to 6-0.

by Paul Gilligan

Pooch Café LOLA

By Holiday Mathis be up for an important role in someone’s life. It is your previous success in school or family life that qualifies you for the job, but it’s your careful listening skills and charm that will get you the position.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

You’ll be in the mood to take a risk and feel the exhilarating high that comes from putting yourself on the line.

Whether or not you win is irrelevant.

Your life will improve either way.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

There’s much spinning in your head.

Empty it onto a list. This will help you focus on the pleasure in each activity, instead of on remembering what else you must accomplish in order to call this day a success.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The effects of your gallantry and kindheartedness will endure. As your sign mate and fellow philanthropist John Ruskin suggested, “It is better to be nobly remembered than nobly born.”

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). If you occasionally indulge, the indulgence has a special feeling. Do it too often, and the act ceases to be a treat. It’s a fine line, and one you navigate well this week.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Aug. 26).

You are happy for the most part, and yet things get better still. This year brings improvement to your intellectual, monetary and social status. You have amazing powers of concentration in September and will bound ahead in a study or project. October brings a chance to travel. December brings new purpose. Capricorn and Cancer people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 25, 1, 50 and 35.

by Darby Conley

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You are able to turn even the most “epic fail” into an opportunity for you and yours.

Maybe for you there is no such thing as bad luck -- only different kinds of good luck.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’ll love what you can do using modern technology and popular science. The sense of accomplishment and glee you feel confirm that you were born at exactly the right moment in time.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll be in a mood to exert your physical strength and stamina. You want to know what you can do, and you have energy to burn. Dynamic individuals will be drawn in by your vitality.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You will affect destiny through your conversational choices. This is no time to stir up controversy and opinion, so stay away from religion, politics and genderspecific categories.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It’s almost always easy for you to give because you enjoy the feeling so much. You strive to reach the level of personal development where you never expect anything in return for your generosity.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You think someone needs help, and you offer it before the person has a chance to ask for it. This act of graciousness is one of the reasons people identify you straight away as a gem.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You have faith in others, so you extend the benefit of the doubt wherever possible. The situation will call for you to stand back and watch for a while -- to see how things get handled without you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’ll

Get Fuzzy

THE LACONIA DAILY SUN, Friday, August 26, 2011— Page 17

––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Tuesday, Aug. 23, the 235th day of 2011. There are 130 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Aug. 23, 1775, Britain’s King George III proclaimed the American colonies to be in a state of “open and avowed rebellion.”

On this date: In 1305, Scottish rebel leader Sir William Wallace was executed by the English for treason.

In 1754, France’s King Louis XVI was born at Versailles (vehr-SY’).

In 1914, Japan declared war against Germany in World War I. In 1926, silent film star Rudolph Valentino died in New York at age 31.

In 1927, amid protests, Italian-born anarchists Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti were executed in Boston for the murders of two men during a 1920 robbery.

In 1939, Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union agreed to a non-aggression treaty, the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, in Moscow.

In 1944, Romanian prime minister Ion Antonescu was dismissed by King Michael, paving the way for Romania to abandon the Axis in favor of the Allies.

In 1960, Broadway librettist Oscar Hammerstein II, 65, died in Doylestown, Pa. In 1973, a bank robbery-turned-hostagetaking began in Stockholm, Sweden; the four hostages ended up empathizing with their captors, a psychological condition now referred to as “Stockholm Syndrome.”

In 1989, in a case that inflamed racial tensions in New York, Yusuf Hawkins, a 16-year-old black youth, was shot dead after he and his friends were confronted by a group of white youths in the Bensonhurst section of Brooklyn.

One year ago: A jury in Goldsboro, N.C., convicted former Marine Cesar Laurean of first-degree murder in the death of a pregnant colleague, Lance Cpl. Maria Lauterbach. Laurean was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

Today’s Birthdays: Actress Vera Miles is 81. Political satirist Mark Russell is 79.

Actress Barbara Eden is 77. Pro Football Hall of Famer Sonny Jurgensen is 77.

Actor Richard Sanders is 71. Ballet dancer Patricia McBride is 69. Pro Football Hall of Famer Rayfield Wright is 66. Country singer Rex Allen Jr. is 64. Singer Linda Thompson is 64.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Dear Annie: How do we deal with our sister “Michelle” who says and e-mails hurtful things to each of us at the most inopportune times?

I have three other sisters. “Debbie” called me this evening in tears. She recently spent a week in the hospital after surgery on her leg. She’s now in a rehabilitation facility and still has a long recovery ahead of her. Since we live many hours away, she has been keeping us updated via e-mail.

Today, Debbie received a terse note from Michelle, saying she did not want to receive any more of these group e-mails.

There was no acknowledgement of the tough time Debbie has been going through. I was not surprised. Michelle did a similar thing to me when I underwent cancer treatment several years ago. It seems she likes to kick us when we are down.

We find Michelle’s behavior heartbreaking and difficult to accept. Why does she push us away? Every time we reach out or try to include her in a discussion or even voice an opinion, we get slammed or completely ignored. She cannot sympathize and is becoming more and more distant as time goes on.

We would like a relationship with her, but it seems this is not possible. On the rare occasions when we see her, she is aloof, won’t make eye contact and barely participates in conversations. Is she mentally ill? No healthy person could do such cruel things. -- Heartbroken Sister Dear Heartbroken: Michelle seems incapable of participating in the sisterly give-and-take that the rest of you expect and enjoy. She finds it overly attached rather than comforting, helpful or supportive. She could be jealous, short-tempered, insecure, unkind or completely self-involved, but none of those things necessarily makes her mentally ill. We suggest you back off and try to accept Michelle as she is and, unless

she exhibits clear signs of deterioration, ignore the rest.

Dear Annie: I used to be friends with a girl who lived across the hall from me in college. “Toni” was a nice person, but had little command of written English and often came to my roommate and me to proofread and correct her papers.

Toni has now become a Facebook friend, and I recently learned she is a special education teacher in a public elementary school. It is obvious her writing skills have not improved at all. She admitted to me that she got her job because she knew the principal, but I have no idea how she has kept her position.

I’m tempted to call the Board of Education, but don’t want to rat her out. Yet, if it were my kids learning words like “alot” and “lastnight,” I would only hope someone would intervene. What should I do? -- Spell Check Is Your Friend.

Dear Spell Check: It’s possible that Toni checks her spelling more carefully in the classroom than she does on Facebook.

It is also likely that poor spelling would have been noticed by some of the parents, as well as school officials (who are also known to check Facebook pages). Instead of assuming she is incompetent, send her a lighthearted note, saying you notice her current spelling isn’t much improved from her college days, and that you trust she is more conscientious in the classroom.

Dear Annie: I am writing in response to “Midge,” who complained that a young woman who was recently awarded a scholarship hasn’t written a thank-you note.

I, too, was a recipient of a similar scholarship. When I applied for this money, one of the requirements was to write a note to the main benefactor to thank her and let her know how I was doing. I honestly had no idea that I needed to do this until it was listed as a requirement. -- Grateful
