Persistence pays off as Bob Kingsbury wins election on his 17th try LACONIA — Before Republican Bob Kingsbury was elected to represent Laconia in the New Hampshire House of Representatives last week, he had run as a Libertarian for different federal, state and

LACONIA — The Planning Board last night unanimously recommended to change the zoning of the tract on Parade Road that formerly housed the Laconia State School and Lakes Region (prison) Facility from residential single-family to rural residential to the delight of residents eager to put the property to educational and agricultural uses.

City officials took the initiative to rezone the property in response to concerns that the state, which is exploring the sale of state-owned assets — including real estate — cast an eye over the property.

The city cannot limit the state’s use of the site. But, it can apply its zoning ordinance to restrict and control the redevelopment of the property should the state sell it to a private party.

The residential single-family district is intended “for singlefamily residences and closely related supsee ZOnInG page 9

LACONIA — What began as a screaming match between two woman incarcerated in the second floor or attic dormitory of the Belknap County Jail has led to five of them being indicted on a variety of charges.

According to the Belknap County Sheriff’s Department, Melissa Sylvia, 31, and Melissa Jean Stone, 36 were involved in a verbal argument when Syliva allegedly struck Stone with her fist.

Three other woman, Heather Yost, 19, Merry Beth Miner, 33, and Elizabeth Ellsworth, 37, allegedly then attacked Sylvia by hitting her with their fists, kicking her and pulling her hair.

All five were charged with a Class B felony of assault by a prisoner and Yost, Minor, Ellsworth, Stone were charged with a Class A misdemeanor for rioting.

According to Superintendent Dan Ward, fighting in jail, on both the men’s and woman’s wing is not uncommon but for one to escalate to this point is rare.

“Fortunately guards were able to separate them quickly and no one was hurt,” he said but overcrowding can lead to these altercations spinning out of control very quickly and often with devastating consequences.

4,500 passengers hot & hungry as cruise ship is towed toward San Diego SAN DIEGO (AP) — The nearly 4,500 passengers and crew of the Carnival Splendor have no air conditioning or hot water. Running low on food, they have to eat canned crab meat and Spam dropped in by helicopters. And for two more days, they have no way out.

The ship was moving again Tuesday night after the first of several Mexican tugbouts en-route to the stricken liner began pulling it toward San Diego, where it was expected to arrive Thursday night, Carnival Cruise Lines said in a statement.

What began as a seven-day cruise to the picturesque Mexican Riviera stopped around sunrise Monday when an engine room fire cut power to the 952-foot vessel and set it adrift off Mexico’s Pacific coast.

No one was hurt and, by Tuesday, U.S. Navy helicopters were ferrying 70,000 pounds of supplies, including the crab meat, croissants, Pop Tarts, Spam

and other items, to the stricken ship.

The tugboats were originally set to take the Splendor to the Mexican coastal city of Ensenada, but the cruise line changed its plans and will attempt to have it towed to San Diego, where hotel and flight arrangements would await the passengers, Carnival said.

If the process moves too slowly, it may still be taken to Ensenada, the statement said.

Coast Guard Petty Officer Kevin Metcalf said the tugs and a Coast Guard cutter escort would have to move slowly because the ship is so big.

Accidents like the engine room fire are rare, said Monty Mathisen, of the New York-based publication Cruise Industry News.

The last major cruise accident was in 2007 when a ship with more than 1,500 people sank after hitting rocks near the Aegean island of Santorini, Mathisen

said. Two French tourists died.

“This stuff does not happen,” he said. “The ships have to be safe, if not the market will collapse.”

The Splendor, which left from Long Beach on Sunday, was 200 miles south of San Diego at the time of the engine fire, according to a statement from Miami-based Carnival. It began drifting about 55 miles off shore.

The 3,299 passengers and 1,167 crew members were not hurt, and the fire was put out in the generator’s compartment, but the ship had no air conditioning, hot water, cell phone or internet service.

After the fire, passengers were first asked to move from their cabins to the ship’s upper deck, but eventually allowed to go back to their rooms. The ship’s auxiliary power allowed for toilets and cold running water. see CRUISE page 6

JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP) — In the Muslim nation that was his boyhood home, President Barack Obama acknowledged Wednesday that U.S. relations are still frayed with the Islamic world despite his best efforts at repair. He urged all sides to look beyond “suspicion and mistrust” to forge common ground against terrorism.

Forcefully returning to a theme he sounded last year in visits to Turkey and Egypt, Obama said: “I have made it clear that America is not and never will be at war with Islam. ... Those who want to build must not cede ground to terrorists who seek to destroy.”

Beaming with pride, Obama delivered perhaps

the most intensely personal speech of his presidency, speaking phrases in Indonesian to a cheering crowd of young people who claimed him as their own.

“Let me begin with a simple statement: Indonesia is part of me,” he said in Indonesian during a morning speech at the University of Indonesia.

He praised the world’s most populous Muslim nation for standing its ground against “violent extremism” and said: “All of us must defeat al-Qaida and its affiliates, who have no claim to be leaders of any religion. ... This is not a task for America alone.”

Seeking to cement relations with fast-growing Asian trading partners, Obama also paid tribute to the economic dynamism of the region at a time of

global financial stress.

“America has a stake in Indonesia that is growing, with prosperity that is broadly shared among the Indonesian people — because a rising middle class here means new markets for our goods, just as America is a market for yours,” he said.

The speech came ahead of a meeting of the Group of 20 major economic powers that begins Wednesday evening in Seoul, South Korea, a session expected to be marked by trade tensions between the U.S. and major exporting nations such as China and Germany.

Earlier Wednesday in Jakarta, Obama visited the Istiqlal Mosque, the largest in Southeast Asia — one see OBAMA page 11

WASHINGTON (AP) — Fresh off the tea party’s show of election might, GOP Sen. Jim DeMint said Tuesday he’ll force a showdown next week with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and other old guard Republicans over “earmarked” pet projects that DeMint and other victors last week made a symbol of out-of-control deficit spending.

The South Carolina Republican, buoyed by support from six GOP freshman, is optimistic he’ll win a change in internal GOP rules to effectively bar any Republican from seeking earmarks.

“Americans want Congress to shut down the ear-

mark favor factory, and next week I believe House and Senate Republicans will unite to stop pork barrel spending,” DeMint said.

DeMint won backing from 25 Senate Republicans, including McConnell, earlier this year to impose an earmark ban on Republicans and Democrats alike.

Despite winning the support of a majority of Republicans, the proposal was easily defeated by Democrats and 14 pro-earmark Republicans. Thirty-three of 41 Senate Republicans then sought earmarks in this year’s unfinished roster of spending bills.

McConnell, however, isn’t enthusiastic about the

idea of a ban now. And he finds himself caught in the middle of an unwelcome battle dividing his party and opening it to criticism from anti-pork tea party activists who helped Republicans take back the House and elect several anti-earmark senators.

House Republicans already have such a rule in place and are about to renew it, but both House and Senate Democrats are strongly opposed.

Earmarks include road and bridge projects, grants to local police department and community development projects, among many, many others.

Young Mont Vernon killer will spend rest of ‘pointless life’ behind bars NASHUA (AP) — A teenager accused of killing a mother and maiming her daughter with a machete during a home invasion was found guilty Tuesday of murder and other charges and was sentenced to life in prison.

The first-degree murder conviction carries an automatic sentence of life without parole. The judge tacked on 76 years to 19-year-old Steven Spader’s sentence for his other felony convictions, saying she could go on for days about the depths of his depravity.

The sentence ensures “you will stay in that cage for the rest of your pointless life,” Judge Gillian Abramson told Spader.

Spader was the first person to go on trial in the October 2009 attacks that left Kimberly Cates dead and her 11-year-old daughter, Jaimie, gravely wounded. Three co-defendants accepted a plea deal

Broderick named UNH law dean

CONCORD (AP) — The retiring chief justice of the New Hampshire Supreme Court has been named dean of the University of New Hampshire School of Law. Chief Justice John Broderick’s appointment was announced Tuesday. He replaces retiring Dean John Hutson, who led the school since 2000.

Broderick said he was honored to be selected to lead the school during a time of great opportunity and change.

Broderick announced in June that he would step down after 15 years on the New Hampshire Supreme Court. He became chief justice in 2004. He retires from the court on Nov. 30.

and testified against Spader; a fourth awaits trial.

Jurors deliberated for about 90 minutes before returning their verdicts. Spader, of Brookline, whose birthday is Tuesday, showed no reaction. He was overheard saying to his lawyers before court proceedings began, “Maybe the jury will sing ‘Happy Birthday’ to me.”

As the jurors were being polled individually on each of their six guilty verdicts, several glared at Spader. Six of the 12 reached after the trial declined to comment.

Before Abramson sentenced Spader, David Cates told her about the suffering and shattered dreams the attacks on his wife and daughter caused. He told Spader that no prison sentence was long enough.

“To the murderer in this courtroom, the upcoming sentence is not justice,” Cates said. “My only hope is that very soon, true justice finds you.”

The jury found Spader guilty of both premeditated murder and intentional murder during the commission of a burglary. It also found him guilty of attempted murder, conspiracy to commit both

murder and burglary, and tampering with a witness.

His mother, Christine Spader, wept briefly as the verdicts were read; his father was stoic.

Defense lawyers Jonathan Cohen and Andrew Winters said they were disappointed by the verdicts but refused to answer questions.

Prosecutor Jeffery Strelzin said after the 11-day trial that the “sheer randomness” of the crime may have been its most horrible element.

Spader wielded a machete and co-defendant Christopher Gribble used a knife during the attacks in the Cates’ Mont Vernon home, authorities said.

Jaimie, now 12, survived by pretending to be dead, then staggered, covered in blood, to a kitchen phone to call police. A doctor testified she would have died of a punctured lung if she had lost consciousness before summoning help.

Blows that cut off portions of Jaimie’s left foot, split open her head and struck her face with enough force to break her jaw had to have come from a heavy and sharp weapon such as a machete, several see MURDER page 9

Belknap Co. schools will be among those hosting flu vaccine clinics CONCORD (AP) — New Hampshire public health officials are starting flu clinics at selected schools and hope to vaccinate half of the state’s school age children.

About 100 schools will hold clinics in the coming months in Belknap, Coos and Grafton counties as well as in the greater Manchester area.

The government recommends that everyone over 6 months old get vaccinated. This year’s vaccine pro-

tects against three strains of the flu including last year’s H1N1 virus. The state is providing the vaccine through its immunization program. The cost of administering the shot will be paid by the child’s insurance or the state immunization program.

The pilot project covers registered students in participating districts and not younger siblings, parents or staff.

Obama & Indonesia Barack Hussein Obama, the mixedrace president born in Hawaii, partly educated in Indonesia — defender of a controversial Islamic center near ground zero in Manhattan — is tentatively scheduled to visit Jakarta’s Masjid Istiqlal, the largest mosque in Southeast Asia. Mercifully, the American elections are over.

The timing lets Obama pursue U.S. foreign policy without overworry that the mosque visit will reignite the fruitcake claims that Obama is really a foreigner and a Muslim. (Obama is Christian, not that being Muslim should matter.)

Such concerns endure, however.

Fear of feeding homefront ignorance prompted Obama to steer clear of a visit to the Golden Temple, the most holy Sikh shrine in India. Sikhs are not Muslims. In fact, they often have bloody conflicts with Muslims. But all male visitors to the temple must wear a traditional headdress. The president’s handlers obviously don’t want a photo of Obama in a turban.

Before Paul Wolfowitz became an architect of the war in Iraq, he was ambassador to Indonesia. Wolfowitz sees the visit as a potentially good occasion for burnishing America’s image in the country with the world’s largest Muslim population — assuming Obama doesn’t go off on one of his apology jags, as he did in the Cairo speech last year. “There’s no question that Obama will be well received,” Wolfowitz told me. “They obviously like the fact that he has lived there. That’s a big deal. They like the fact that he represents American tolerance and diversity, which they admire.”

Although Indonesia’s leaders have failed to adequately crack down on Muslim terrorists who attack churches, the country is not mired in religious extremism, according to Wolfowitz. Indonesia recognizes six religions. The nearly 250 million people in this country — three times the size of Texas — belong to 300 ethnic groups. The national motto is “Unity in Diversity.”

Unlike most Asian countries, Indonesia extols youth, and that also works in Obama’s favor. “They have enormous nostalgia for the Kennedys,” Wolfowitz said.

From 1967 to 1971, Obama lived in the Menteng neighborhood of Jakarta with his Indonesian stepfather, his mother and his half-sister.

Indonesians call him “Anak Menteng,” which means “Menteng Boy.” Working against Obama is continuing unhappiness over the war in Afghanistan, which much of the public sees as a war against Muslims. Indonesians are also troubled by the plummet in Obama’s fortunes back home.

Wolfowitz’s concern — shared by some of Obama’s friends — is that the president might again wax apologetic about America or its values.

During his much criticized Cairo speech calling for “a new beginning” between America and the Islamic world, Obama noted several times that women may wear the hijab (Islamic head covering) in America without defending their right to not wear it in many Muslim countries.

Because of Obama’s youth and multicultural background, he should be able to bond with these mostly Muslim audiences while recognizing certain realities. “When he speaks out in defense of religious freedom and against burning churches,” Wolfowitz said, “people won’t hear that as some right-wing evangelical thing.”

Some Indonesian students are already protesting Obama’s scheduled visit for the usual anti-American reasons. And recent natural disasters, volcanic eruptions and another tsunami, are bound to dampen Indonesians’ enthusiasm. But Obama’s reception should be generally positive.

There’s no better place in the Muslim world for him to visit. And wouldn’t a grownup conversation between the Indonesian people and the American president who once lived among them be a good thing for U.S. foreign policy?

Now that the United States is off campaign mode, however briefly, Obama is free to be both friendly and frank.

Let’s hope it comes off as planned.

— LETTERS — Free speech, yes, but do we have to be so rude to one another?

To the editor, Billboards, bumper stickers and marquees for drive –in theaters and other business are screaming at us all the time. Anger and incivility are allowed to rule public spaces and the public air waves. While free speech is one of the founding principles of this country, do we really need to be so rude to one another? Where have the concepts of civility, consideration for the feelings of others and tolerance gone? When did political pas-

sion become more important than the basic good business practice of not offending your customers?

Everyone agrees that we are living in difficult times. We don’t necessarily agree on what the difficult is or what the causes are. Rudeness, crudeness, crassness, and offensiveness can’t help get the job done and it can’t be good for business. We can do so much better.

LETTERS Citizens United decision makes it easy for me to target donations To the editor, The 2010 election results are mostly but not completely known. The Republican Party, fresh from voters’ stinging rebuke in 2006 and 2008 due to a complete failure to adhere to conservative principle, has once again been put in charge of the people’s house, many state legislatures and governorships.

Approximately 100 years ago, Teddy Roosevelt and the Progressives ushered in what has become an unrelenting expansion of federal power.

Government spending and regulatory expansion have been on a steady increase for over 70 years now. The government now consumes almost 50-percent of the GDP; it consumed around 10-percent in 1900. This is not a result that the founders intended.

They established a federal government with limited enumerated powers where state governments, much more directly accountable to their citizens, were to do the lion’s share of governing. Since ratification, the federal courts have eroded the founders’ original intent. The two most recent Congresses and our current president have expanded the size and power of government at an unprecedented rate. We are now bankrupt and our citizens are realizing that fact. With a few isolated exceptions on the east and west coast, the majority of voters

who exercised their franchise November 2nd spoke for less government.

Only time will tell if the newly elected Republicans in both state and federal offices got the message of smaller government and less spending. I know I speak for many conservatives when I say that this is the Republican Party’s last chance with me. The Republican leadership had best understand that millions of small republic conservatives may have saved them from themselves November 2nd. We didn’t vote for earmarks, bigger government and increased government spending. We didn’t vote for bailouts and government ownership of formerly private companies. We voted for restoration of a fiscally sustainable republic with less centralized power.

The Internet makes it easy for citizens to withhold support from the party and only support candidates who believe and will act for a small “r” republic. The Supreme Court’s recent decision in the Citizens United vs. Federal Election Commission case makes it much easier for me to direct my speech contributions to entities that support my point of view. The Republican Party had better understand this fact and very quickly or it will go the way of the Whigs.

Campaigning never mentioned the wars, this season To the editor, Matthew Hoh, U. S. Marine who served in Iraq, and U. S. diplomat stationed in Afghanistan, in 2009 resigned his post in protest over the U. S.’s questionable rationale for being in Afghanistan. He spoke at our N.H. Peace Action’s 28th Annual Event and Fundraiser.

His resignation letter can be read online.

Early in his talk he told us of a combat soldier in Afghanistan who just died — in his eleventh deployment. Matthew told us of a personal friend going off to his fourth deployment the very day of this Nov. 5th talk.

The friend’s marriage was ending due to his military service/absence from home, and Nov. 5th was the last day the friend would live in the same house with his two small sons.

Now I’ve read information from

Iraq Veterans Against the War, who’ve launched Operation Recovery: a Campaign to Stop the Deployment of Traumatized Troops. “GIs and veterans have a right to heal.” The ideas jive with what Matthew Hoh observes. Anyone interested should look up ivaw@ivaw.org.

To read more about Matthew Hoh and the group he works with now, look up Afghanistan Study Group. They’ve just issued a report on what needs to be done in Afghanistan. I’m going to get copies to our Sen. Jeanne Shaheen and our Sen.-elect Kelly Ayotte. Campaigning never mentioned the wars, this season, but their cost financially is huge (treasury-draining, debtbuilding) and their cost emotionally is growing and personal to every family that experiences the pain.

LETTERS Parks & Rec board took nasty & uncalled for reaction to Legion To the editor, With Veterans Day upon us it gives us all time to ponder, (though we should do that every day, however), what all of our veterans have done for us in the past and every single day.

Whether they are overseas fighting terrorism, or right here defending us against floods, securing toys for tots, recruiting others to serve their country, they are heroes, our heroes and for the life of me I cannot understand why this country continues to push them aside be it for much needed benefits, housing, medical care or jobs.

One thing that could be so very easy to applaud them for is their initiative to bring happiness and entertainment to the Laconia area this next summer in the form of a circus. They were flat out denied, given off the cuff reasons.

Does the council realize that any attraction of the size we are speaking carries INSURANCE to cover damages, and hey, the definition of DAMAGES can be worked out in a CONTRACT prior to the event? Yes the field is new, yes it is for kids playing their sports, yes it is close to the clubhouse, which for whatever reason seems to present a problem.

Bring in porta-potties, they’re every-

where these days.

I think it is despicable that the Parks & Recreation Commission, Jeff Pattison in particular, took such a nasty and uncalled for reaction to the veterans request. It was totally uncalled for, RUDE and totally out of line. These people made this country what it is today and is fighting to keep it free. The very least YOU could do, Mr. Pattison, is rally the commission to honor their request and FIND A WAY TO WORK IT OUT. You are taking a very American activity away from the children and parents of this community. How do you sleep at night? I think at the VERY LEAST, you OWE the Veterans a WRITTEN APOLOGY, IN THE SUN AND CITIZEN for the way you treated their request.

They had every right to go to whatever venue the wanted to see this circus happen. Your rude and uncalled for behavior which was written in The Sun and Citizen, is a disgrace to your commission and to every citizen of Laconia. I do hope the rest of your term is a short one. Laconia needs and deserves better leaders.

Here’s a list of what the Republicans should do right away To the editor, America spoke and directed its anger at the Obama Administration.

Even at the local level, people voted Republican to send a message. We are sick of the liberal agenda that has resulted in record deficits, increased taxes, poor security on our borders and programs like Obamacare.

We have fired Nancy Pelosi and her programs of “you need this because we say so” . This is a “butt kicking” victory by the GOP on a national, state and local level. It took President Bush six years to lose Congress, President Obama did it in two years. The GOP owes President Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid a big thank you for reviving the Republican Party.

In the next two years, the Republicans should do the following: — Shutdown any tax increase recommended by the Deficit Commission, e.g., Value Added Tax,

— Make the Bush tax cuts permanent, — Shutdown Cap and Trade, — Pass an Immigration Law similar to Arizona’s Law, — Cuts ties with Freddy Mac and Fannie Mae, — Stop funding for NPR, — Slowdown, overturn or defund the implementation of Obamacare.

Eliminate the mandate that all American must buy health insurance. Cut the hiring of 16,000 new IRS agents to monitor health insurance.

— Keep the Capital Gains tax at 15-percent, — Eliminate the ‘death’ estate tax, — Lower the corporate tax — Get the government out of the automobile business, — Adopt a conservative agenda that will serve as a foundation for the 2012 elections.

Howard Bates, 87

CAMPTON — Howard M. Bates, 87, formerly of Winter Brook Road died at the New Hampshire Veterans Home, Tilton, N.H. on Sunday, November 7, 2010. He was the widower of F. Ellen (O’Hearn) Bates, who died September 28, 2010.

CRUISE from page one Bottled water and cold food were provided, the company said.

The temperature in the area was 62 degrees, and there were scattered clouds, according to the Coast Guard.

Toni Sweet, of San Pedro, Calif., was frustrated when she couldn’t reach her cousin, Vicky Alvarez, aboard the ship. She said she called her cell phone and did not get an answer.

“We know everything is fine, but we’re just worried,” Sweet said. “She was nervous about going on a cruise ship even before this happened and now with this, I don’t think she’ll ever go again.”

Carnival spokeswoman Joyce Oliva said the ship’s command is able to communicate with outsiders on a backup system.

On Tuesday, U.S. sailors loaded cargo planes with supplies for the stranded passengers. The U.S. Coast

Navy was also helping but did not release details of its contribution.

The U.S. Navy diverted the aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan from training maneuvers to help.

The Splendor only had enough food to last through midday Tuesday because refrigerators on the ship stopped working after the power was knocked out, Navy Commander Greg Hicks said.

Hicks said 50,000 pounds of food had already been delivered by Tuesday afternoon.

Carnival Corp.’s stock was down about 1 percent Tuesday.

Mathisen commended the cruise line for its handling of the situation, saying officials responded quickly. But he said the accident could damage an industry already hurting from a drop in trips to Mexico because of drug violence.

It also will be costly for Carnival, which is refunding passengers, offering vouchers for future cruises and may

William S. Hodgson, 68

New Hampton voters will be asked to build new home for police & fire NEW HAMPTON — The selectmen, in cooperation with the fire and police chiefs, have approved a plan to investigate the feasibility of building a public safety building. The plan is to issue a request for proposals for a design and build project.

The “design build” approach was chosen so that the board could go to the voters with a firm price for the new building which at this time is estimated to be between $1.9 and $2.4-million. Asked if this was a good time to build the public safety building given the state of the economy, the selectmen responded that this is indeed a good time; construction prices are 25-percent lower than just two years ago, bond rates are under 5-percent and construction companies are looking for work. Also given the effort of the fire chief and police chief to reduce the size and cost of the previous building plans, the board agreed that it should be presented to the voters for consideration in 2011.

The building proposal will combine in one building of 15,664-square-feet (with 3000-square-feet of additional space above in unfinished area) the Fire and Police Departments, the ambulance services, the Emergency Management director, the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) and also provide temporary shelter for use in emergencies. It will replace the existing fire station on Rte. 104, built in 1968 and the Police Department located on the second floor of the Town Offices on Pinnacle Hill Road. Both facilities are thought be the selectmen to be currently inadequate to support the needs and mission of the individual departments. They have life/safety code and ADA compliance issues, inadequate vehicle space, inadequate parking spaces, inadequate work, meeting and training spaces, lack proper storage and have ongoing mold problems.

The proposed building will be located on the town-owned property located behind the existing fire station, which was purchased by the town in 2002 for this purpose.

The fire chief, police chief and Selectman Ken Mertz have been developing a set of plans and specifications for the Public Safety Building that will be used to issue a request for proposal (RFP) for design build services. The RFP will be sent to New Hampshire

contractors deemed to be capable of providing the required design and build expertise. However, the opportunity to submit a proposal will be open to any qualified contractor. It is expected that the RFP will be issued sometime this month.

The price submitted by the chosen contractor will be the basis of the amount of borrowing required for the project, after deductions for other revenue and reserve funds. The issuing of any contract by the Board of Selectmen will be contingent upon the approval by voters at the March Town Meeting.

If the project were to go forward, the Board of Selectmen are planning to fund the construction of the Public Safety Building by a combination of bonding, existing Town Building and Land Capital Reserve Fund, logging on town-owned property and asking the voters to change the allowed uses of the Fire Department Equipment Fund.

The Fire Department Equipment Fund has been established to be used exclusively for the purchase of Fire Department equipment. The selectmen, in consultation with Fire Chief Mike Drake, feel that using this fund to offset the initial amount of borrowing required and to assist with the yearly bond payments will result in lowering the impact of the building on the tax rate. The change in the use of this fund will require the approval of the voters at the annual Town Meeting. Selectmen are also exploring grant opportunities for the building and necessary equipment (exhaust extraction system, communications equipment, generator, etc…). The actual amount of the bond that will be required will be determined after the contractors proposals in response to the RFP are received and analyzed.

The Town Building and Land Capital Reserve Fund had a balance of $482,598 at year-end 2009. Any and all logging perpton citizens at the February Deliberative Session and for a vote at the March 9th, Town Meeting.

If approved by the voters a contract would be issued in March or April 2011 with an expected construction time of 1 year.formed will be in accordance with Best Forestry Practices and supervised by the Town Forester. see next page

12th Annual National Survivors of Suicide Day Saturday, November 20, 2010

KINGSBURY from page one swept into office in District 4, only one of whom, Don Flanders, was an incumbent. He will also be joined in Concord by newcomers Harry Accornero, Frank Tilton and Bob Luther.

Drafted in 1944, Kingsbury served as a rifleman in the Third Army commanded by General George S. Patton. He saw action in the Battle of the Bulge and the subsequent drive into Germany. “My buddy and I were the only ones in our squad to survive,” he said. “Most only lasted a day.”

After leaving the Army as a Private First Class, Kingsbury enrolled at the University of Maryland and graduated in 1950, shortly after the outbreak of the Korean Conflict. He recalled that his class included a large number of second lieutenants, commissioned after completing the Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) program, who he doubted were prepared to lead troops in combat. “I knew I could a better job,” he said. “So I re-enlisted and went to Officer Candidate School.”

Kingsbury quickly earned command of an infantry company, but was not posted to Korea. However, he remained in the Army reserve, ultimately retiring with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel in 1979.

Meanwhile, Kingsbury worked in marketing and sales, first for B.F. Goodrich, the tire manufacturer, then Ethyl Corporation, the petroleum company and finally for American Colloid Company, a distributor of clay.

Kingsbury said his interest in politics was originally picqued in 1962 when, as a sharpshooter on an army rifle team, he became incensed by a proposal to replace the 30-caliber military rifle with a 22-caliber weapon. “It was haywire,” he said.

Kingsbury said that he left the Libertarian Party several years ago when the national leadership “tried to dominate and control” the local organization. “Officially, I was always a Republican,” he said. “In order to vote you must register as either a Republican or a Democrat. You can’t register as a Libertarian.”

Nevertheless, freedom is uppermost on Kingsbury’s legislative agenda. “I intend to sustain and support the freedom of the people,” he said, “and to protect their rights and privileges.” He estimated that perhaps 90-percent of the some 1,000 bills filed each year in the State House “violate the constitution,” which he understands vests most authority in local government, less in state government and little, apart from “interaction with foreign nations,” in the federal government.

“Fortunately I’m not going in alone,” Kingsbury said, explaining that he would join the House Republican Alliance, the conservative element that many see next page More than 40% of back and neck injuries are a result of a motor vehicle accident.

MURDER from page 3 doctors testified.

David Cates told the court that Jaimie gets A’s in school and played on the field hockey team this fall.

But he said her emotional scars are immeasurable.

“She has had to witness more evil in this world than any human being should be made to bear,” Cates said.

Cates described his late wife as his soulmate.

“Kim was full of energy, excitement and love,” said Cates, who was traveling on business when the attacks occurred.

In their final arguments, Spader’s lawyers assailed the character and credibility of the three co-defendants who testified against Spader. Even Strelzin described them as despicable.

But the strongest evidence against Spader were his own words — his bragging to friends about the attacks and detailed notes he wrote to his cellmates while awaiting trial.

Spader wrote that he whacked the mother 36 times and could see brains, lots of blood and her eyeball hanging out of its socket.

“I am probably the most sick and twisted person you will ever meet,” Spader wrote as the prelude to one of his notes to a fellow inmate.

One of Spader’s co-defendants pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit murder and burglary and accomplice to first-degree assault in exchange for a 30- to 60-year prison sentence. Another pleaded guilty to robbery, burglary and conspiracy in exchange for a 20- to 40-year sentence. from preceding page believe has grown to include a majority of the nearly 300 Republican representatives. “I’ve attended the meetings of the alliance as a director of the Coalition of New Hampshire Taxpayers,” said Kingsbury, who is also a director of the Gun Owners of New Hampshire. He is a member of the John Birch Society, which seeks to “awaken a sleeping and apathetic people concerning the designs of those who are working to destroy our constitutional Republic,” and the Fully Informed Jury Association, a group seeking “to protect fellow citizens from tyrannical abuses of power by government.”

To overcome the state budget deficit, Kingsbury suggested starting with the last budget of Governor Meldrim Thomson, which he said in current dollars amounted to $1.5-billion dollars compared to the more than $5-billion the state is spending this year.

“There are $4-billion is excess funds,” he concluded.

“It’s all hidden. There’s plenty of money. They’re just mishandling it.”

Kingsbury said he expected to write a letter each week to inform his constituents of “what is happening in Concord. I want to make their wishes and dreams come true.”

Pair of indictments tied to Belmont standoff

BY GAIL OBER

LACONIA — The man and woman who held police at bay for more nearly six hours in early September have both been indicted by a Belknap County grand jury for their respective roles in the Belmont standoff in early September.

Christopher M. Kelly, 34, who is incarcerated in the New Hampshire State Prison, is charged with criminal restraint because he allegedly forced a three-year old to remain inside the barricaded home while his female accomplice, Diamond Morrill, 21, allegedly fired a gun.

He is also charged with resisting arrest.

Morrill of 23 Liscomb Circle in Gilford was charged with three felony counts of reckless conduct for allegedly firing a gun three times inside the house.

An indictment is not a find of guilt but is a finding by a group of randomly selected jurors that the prosecution

has presented sufficient evidence to justify a trial.

Bullets from the gun narrowly missed hitting Laconia Police Sgt. Richard Simmons, Belknap County Sheriff Dave Perkins, and Belmont Police Officer Joel Pickowicz , all members of the Belknap County Special Operation Group that had surrounded the house at 672 Union Road in an effort to get the two to bring out the child and surrender.

The overnight standoff began when U.S. Marshals working a Joint Fugitive Task Force learned Kelly had been living in Belmont. Working with BRSOG, the Marshals surrounded the home in an effort to get him into custody.

The woman who was the primary tenant at the home surrendered immediately but her daughter was left inside with Morrill and Perkins.

Around 6:30 a.m. Perkins, holding the child who was wrapped in a blanket, gave up to police who made entry into the house and arrested Morrill.

ZONING from page one porting facilities such as schools and churches.”

Single-family homes and manufactured housing are both permitted uses in the district, where apart from day-centers other commercial and supporting uses, like neighborhood stores, schools and churches, are only permitted by special exception.

The minimum lot size in the current district is two acres, but shrinks to 40,000 square feet with either municipal water or sewer and to 10,000 square feet with both utilities. The site is served by municipal sewer and a water main runs along the east side of North Main Street. Changing the zoning will forestall intensive residential development of the 212 acres, of which approximately 188 acres are suited for development.

Planning Director Shanna Saunders said that the zoning can only be changed to one of the 15 districts listed in the zoning ordinance. Among these, she said that the two most promising alternatives are the rural residential (RR1) district and the commercial district.

The ordinance describes RR1 as “designed to accommodate residential uses in what is commonly recognized as being a rural environment.” The minimum lot size is two acres, with or without utilities, of which 65-percent must remain as “green space,” and lots require 250 feet of road frontage. The district is intended for single-family homes. Multi-family dwellings are not permitted and other residential uses, cluster subdivisions and manufacturing housing, require conditional use permits. Agricultural uses, excluding livestock, are permitted while educational institutions require a special exception.

Apart from “neighborhood stores,” commercial uses are prohibited.

The commercial district is characterized as “an

area for those commercial or restricted industrial facilities with an attraction and customer service area which goes beyond the immediate neighborhood.” Development requires adequate off-street parking in lots corresponding to the size of the buildings. At least one municipal utility is required. The minimum lot size with one utility is 40,000 square feet and with both water and sewer 8,000 square feet. A fifth of the lot must be set aside as “green space.” Both single and two-family units residential units are permitted while multi-family dwellings require a special exception.

Bill Contardo said that the zoning should accommodate a college or university along with incubator space for businesses, much as Dr. Mark Edelstein, president of Lakes Region Community College has proposed. But, unless the incubator space was incorporated within the college, businesses would require a variance to operate in the rural residential zone.

“I come back to wanting this land to create jobs,” Warren Hutchins reminded the board.

Saunders cautioned that zoning the property commercial could encourage “sprawl” and suggested confining commercial and industrial uses to “our commercial core” — downtown, Lakeport and The Weirs.

Don Richards reminded the board that “we have an industrial park and it’s empty.”

Attorney Pat Wood was the first to speak when the hearing was opened to the public. He noted that the board was about to review the zoning ordinance with guidance from several consultants and doubted that “anything will happen to the property soon.” He said that “maybe instead of trying to fit this into a box that already exists, we ought to look at a completely different box.”

David Stamps said that of the two options, rural see next page

COUNTY JAIL from page one crowding was not a contributing factor, but as the courts slow down because of furlough days and rehabilitation programs become harder to access, things will get worse.

Ward said the woman’s dormitory is designed to hold 12 prisoners — as of yesterday he said he was at 19 and knew he had a 20th coming.

“I have bunk beds in the second floor,” Ward said.

Ward said that in 1999 the Belknap County Jail processed 200 women prisoners, meaning 200 women came through the doors, though not all of them stayed.

“Last year it was 470 and this year I’ll cross 500,” said Ward.

He said while County Attorney James Carroll has done a great job of keeping those who can stay out of jail, out, the total inmate population hasn’t dropped below 100 since he’s gotten there.

“Right now I’m at 109,” he said noting that these people aren’t all in for non-violent charges.

“Don’t forget, everyone awaiting trial for any charges is right here,” he said.

Ward said that one change brought by the socalled SB-500 law is a provision that mandates 90 days for a parole violation but allows county time to count toward the 90 days.

He said before SB-500, parolees who violated the terms of their parole, usually by committing a new crime, automatically petitioned to be returned to state prison because their “time” in county jail didn’t count toward the time remaining in their sentences.

Now, Ward said the 90-day clock begins ticking immediately and he said parole violators would rather wait it out in county jail than in the state prison.

Ward said even if they do get returned to state prison, once their 90 days is up, the prisoner must go back to county jail if the county wants to prosecute them on the latest crime.

And this applies to crime committed inside as well as out.

“If crimes are occurring in our jail, I want the perpetrators prosecuted,” he said. “If I find drugs, they they’ll be charged with drug violations.”

“If they fight, then they’ll be charged accordingly,” he said.

He said charging four the women in the recent altercation with felony assault by a prisoner is a way of getting the word out very quickly to the general public that he’s not going to put up with it.

At the time of last week’s indictments, Stone, Sylvia and Ellsworth were already in New Hampshire State Prison for Women in Goffstown. The wherabouts of Miner and Yost was unknown.

OBAMA from page 2 that Obama noted was under construction when he lived in Indonesia as a boy from 1967 to 1971.

“Because Indonesia is made up of thousands of islands, hundreds of languages, and people from scores of regions and ethnic groups, my times here helped me appreciate the humanity of all people,” Obama said.

The president’s brief but nostalgic visit to his boyhood home lent an unusually personal tone to the speech, a portion of which he devoted to his childhood here. Obama reminisced about living in a small house with a mango tree out front, and learning to love his adopted home while flying kites, running along paddy fields, catching dragonflies and buying such delicacies as satay and baso from street vendors. He spoke of running in fields with water buffalo and goats and the birth of his sister, Maya, who is half Indonesian.

Obama moved to Indonesia as a 6-year-old and lived with his mother, Stanley Ann Dunham, and Indonesian stepfather, Lolo Soetoro. “While my stepfather, like most Indonesians, was raised a Muslim, he firmly believed that all religions were worthy of respect,” Obama said.

Obama, a Christian, attended public and Catholic schools while in Indonesia. He returned to Hawaii when he was 10 to live with his grandparents.

The president’s homecoming had been twicedelayed — first because of his health care legislative battle and then because of the BP oil spill. “We had a couple of false starts,” he noted. And this trip was to be cut short, too, so Air Force One could take off ahead of a big cloud of ash from the erupting Indonesian volcano Mount Merapi.

Reaching out to the Islamic world, Obama said efforts to build trust and peace are showing promise but are still clearly incomplete.

“Relations between the United States and Muslim nations have been frayed over many years. As president, I have made it a priority to begin to repair these relations,” Obama said.

He said a choice must be made by both sides: “We can choose to be defined by our differences and give in to a future of suspicion and mistrust. Or we can choose to do the hard work of forging common ground and commit ourselves to the steady pursuit of progress.”

Obama praised Indonesia for having “made progress in rooting out terrorists and combating violent extremism.”

Noting that the path from colonial rule to democracy had been a rocky one, Obama said, “Of course, democracy is messy.”

And, just over a week after seeing his own Democratic Party suffer bruising midterm election defeats in the U.S. Congress, Obama added: “Not everyone likes the results of every election. You go through ups and downs. But the journey is worthwhile.”

On the Middle East, Obama also mentioned the difficult path toward getting the peace process between Israel and the Palestinians back on course.

“We have faced false starts and setbacks,” Obama said. “There should be no illusions that peace and security will come easy.”

But he added, “Let there be no doubt: We will spare no effort in working for the outcome that is just and that is in the interest of all the parties involved: two states, Israel and Palestine, living side by side in peace and security.”

A reminder of that difficult road was waiting for Obama when he landed in Indonesia Tuesday on a steamy afternoon in Southeast Asia. Israel’s decision to build more apartments in east Jerusalem, a disputed territory claimed by Palestinians, had already earned a rebuke from American diplomats before a tired, traveling president weighed in himself.

Alton Central School planning Wednesday morning assembly to honor service of local veterans ALTON — On Wednesday, Nov. 10, Alton Central School will honor area veterans for their service to their country at a 10 a.m. assembly. Their service has ensured that the freedoms outlined in the Constitution of the United States and the Bill of Rights are available to every citizen. By studying the process of elections such as the one recently held on November 2, students learned that they are able to choose their representatives at the local, state, and national level.

Through preparation for this assembly they also have learned what members of our Armed Services have given to each and every one of us. As citizens

of this country, we are able to voice our opinion for or against any government agency, whether it is the local school or town government or it is the federal government at the presidential level. We have our active and veteran service members to thank for this and other freedoms.

Alton Central School invites area veterans to join students and staff to as they honor their service at this assembly in the gymnasium. The morning will provide a display of the work students have done to represent their appreciation for the sacrifices the veterans have made in the name of our country and our community.

CONCORD — In recognition of Veteran’s Day, Red River Theater will to present a showing of “No Unwounded Soldiers” on Wednesday, Nov. 10 at 6 p.m.. Following the 60 minute viewing, producer and director Rebecca Abbott will discuss the project and answer questions.

When the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq began, one group of American war veterans – those who served in Vietnam – was especially troubled by the uncanny parallels with their own experiences. “No Unwounded Soldiers” follows a small group of Vietnam War veterans, and the twin sister of a deceased veteran, as they explore — through their work in drama therapy — the ways that war changes those who fight. It shows the devastating and persistent ripple effects those changes have on them, their families, and their communities. And it shows that healing is possible, especially through the arts. As they work to create an original work of drama, this group explores the universality of war’s impact on those who serve, and they share their emotional and psychological struggle to find healing after war.

Joined in the documentary by two veterans of World War II and a veteran of the Iraq conflict, they reach out to help the new generation of soldiers returning from America’s current wars.

“No Unwounded Soldiers” was taped at the VA hospital in West Haven, Connecticut during a weekly drama therapy group led by drama therapist Mary Lou Lauricella. Taping of rehearsal/therapy sessions were recorded from February through December 2005 when the group’s original play had its first performance. The characters in the play were created by the group through discussion, debate and consensus, and were based on their own personal experiences or those of other real individuals. And while the play’s plot and the actions were defined for each scene, the lines of dialogue were not scripted, so performances involved improvisational acting throughout.

“No Unwounded Soldiers” was produced, directed, videotaped and edited by Rebecca L. Abbott and was an official selection of the 2007 Vail, Colorado and Northampton, Massachusetts Film Festivals and 2008 Gloria Film Festival, Utah.

Pooch Café LOLA

By Holiday Mathis SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You know you can achieve your aim, but what you don’t know is whether it’s really what you want. Commit to working on this for a few days, and see how you feel about it then.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

Your powers of self-control are growing stronger by the minute. You know how you want to behave. Keeping this in mind, you will successfully regulate your actions, attitudes and habits.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

You are a steadfast and responsible person. However, don’t forget that your first commitment is to take care of yourself. Without that one in place, you won’t be able to help anyone else.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ll have another interaction with that zany someone who keeps things interesting.

You may not understand this person’s ways, but you accept them and enjoy the air of mystique around the relationship.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You do what needs to be done, whether or not the task happens to fit your idea of a good time. You can always play when the work is finished. Because you are so responsible, you’ll succeed.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Nov. 10). You won’t find your success the way you have in the past, nor will you find it the way others do. There’s a fresh originality in your approach, and you’ll be lucky while implementing progressive and unconventional ideas. Your love life blossoms this month. Family money will help you launch a venture in 2011.

Capricorn and Leo people adore you.

Your lucky numbers are: 30, 4, 11, 23 and 16.

by Darby Conley

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You are in touch with your future. You can accurately answer big and small questions about what will happen. For instance, who is going to call you today? Let your mind wander, and the answer will pop into your head.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Writing is a powerful tool. It focuses you in a way that nothing else can. Write about the way you want your life to be. Then write it again as though it were already the case.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). If your goal is too easy, you will accomplish it, but you will not feel very excited about it when you do. Shoot for something slightly more difficult, and you will be satisfied when you achieve it.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Learn all that’s necessary to do a project more or less by yourself. You’ll save money, but that’s not the point. You’ll also challenge yourself, pick up a new skill and enlarge your horizons.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Instead of limiting yourself by scraping and saving until you achieve a desired result, you will live as though you have already acquired your dream. This doesn’t require you to be extravagant, though your mindset will be generous.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You require a great deal of freedom in your relationships. You’ll put some distance between you and the person who asks too many questions about your comings and goings.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). There will be a few interesting twists at work.

However, do be careful not to get caught up in quests that are so unusual that you lose sight of what you’re supposed to be doing.

––––––– ALMANAC ––––––– Today is Wednesday, Nov. 10, the 314th day of 2010; with 51 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Nov. 10, 1775, the U.S. Marines were organized under authority of the Continental Congress.

On this date: In 1917, 41 suffragists were arrested for picketing in front of the White House.

In 1919, the American Legion opened its first national convention, in Minneapolis.

Plymouth Area Renewable Energy Initiative annual meeting and celebration is Friday PLYMOUTH — The annual meeting for the Plymouth Area Renewable Energy Initiative (PAREI), a celebration of 2010 with the board of directors, staff, and members, will be held at Fosters at the Common Man Inn from 5:30 — 8 p.m. on Friday, November 12.

The evening will include light fare to be served with cash bar, a business update, a presentation of annual accomplishments, a 50/50 raffle, and optional dinner.

Members are invited to share a 30-second story about a fun, funny, favorite, or just plain memorable PAREI experience — perhaps a story from an Energy Exchange or Energy Raiser event.

The Plymouth Area Renewable Energy Initiative was organized to encourage energy conservation, energy efficiency practices and promote the use of renewable energy in homes, businesses and other

buildings in the Plymouth region through education, community outreach, accessibility and service coordination.

PAREI’s Community Energy Raisers are modeled after a “barn-raising” following the tradition of neighbor helping neighbor. The goals of the Energy Raisers are to increase the community’s accessibility to solar energy; bring down the cost of installing renewable energy systems; provide hands on education for the homeowner so they end up with a strong understanding of how their system works; develop a support network of knowledgeable families; provide local tradespeople an avenue to learn about installing renewable energy systems; and build community connections while we all prepare for life in a lower energy world.

For more information, call 536-5030 or visit www. plymouthenergy.org.

LACONIA — This month’s deadline for requesting assistance from Angel Food Ministries, an organization dedicated to providing affordable high-quality

food to those in need, is Thursday, November 11.

In response to current economic conditions and lengthy unemployment lines, Angel Food provides individuals and families with fresh brand name food for a fraction of the retail price. By purchasing food in bulk, directly from some of the top suppliers in the country, food is discounted by up to 50 percent of retail.

Angel Food Ministries is now offering a new selection of prepackaged boxes with more protein items.

They contain top quality food staples from every food group, including chicken or beef, milk, eggs, vegetables, and fruits. Each of the regular boxes of food feeds a family of four for about one week or a single individual for almost a month. The menu selections vary each month, and consist of both fresh and frozen items. There is even a box geared towards the nutritional needs of people on the go, singles, seniors, and diabetics.

Angel Food Ministries’ service is available to anyone wanting to stretch their food dollars. There are no income requirements or program qualifications and we will eventually be able to accept SNAP. There are no limits to the quantity of boxes per individual, nor are there any applications or qualifications for eligibility.

The local Partner Site for Angel Food Ministries is Evangelical Baptist Church. Pickup is scheduled from 9 — 10 a.m. on Saturday, November 20. For more information, call 524-2277.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Dear Annie: My friend “Janet” booked some discounted hotel rooms through an online auction. One of them was a two-bedroom suite for two nights, which she booked with me in mind, hoping I would share it with her for an upcoming occasion.

Janet doesn’t have any children at home, but I have two teenagers and a husband. When she first asked me about this, I told her it sounded like fun, but I’d have to check my calendar. Three weeks ago, I informed her that I simply couldn’t manage it. She was so upset that I rescheduled some appointments in order to spend one night with her, and she said she’d stay the second with her husband.

The next morning, I asked what I owed her, and she named an amount that covered half the bill for both nights. When I said it should only cost me for one night, she replied, “After I bought this, you said you would stay with me, so you should have to pay for half of the total bill.”

Annie, I never asked Janet to buy this package, and I was really put out that I had to leave my responsibilities at home to accommodate her. Janet is a good friend, but I am miffed.

What should I do? -- Resentful Dear Resentful: If you gave Janet the impression that you would stay both nights, then you need to pay her, but that doesn’t seem to be the case. You are under no obligation to pay for more than you agreed to. Resentment can also damage the friendship, so you may as well tell Janet that it is unfair for her to charge you for a room she wanted but you didn’t, and that you will pay half of what she is asking. Next time, say “no” more emphatically.

Dear Annie: My husband and I have been married 21 years.

The problem is, he texts me all day long. He has lots of alone time at his job. I am a homemaker, and even with the kids

in school, I still have many things to do during the day. My husband starts texting me at 6:30 a.m. and doesn’t stop until he gets home at 4:00. Worse, he gets upset if I don’t text back.

This drives me crazy. He says I’m pushing him away, because if I don’t care to talk to him, it means I don’t love him.

I’ve explained that his constant texting stresses me out, and I don’t understand why he is so insecure that he must be in touch nonstop. I have also told him that texting so often means we run out of things to say in person. I do love him.

How can I get him to stop? -- Text-Stalker’s Wife Dear Wife: Your husband is bored and has a toy that allows him to behave like a toddler and demand your undivided attention. When you don’t respond, he feels like the unpopular kid at school and freaks out. You need to train him to expect less contact. Here’s one suggestion: Start by responding to every other message, adding a “Sorry” at the beginning.

Then make it every third message, and so on, until he won’t be surprised to get only a few texts from you each day. If he gets worse, however, it could be considered abusive and will require counseling.

Dear Annie: This is in response to “Bettendorf, Iowa,” who was concerned about children playing in the street. My teenage children know to watch for little kids. My neighbors also watch their children, but as an added safety measure have purchased orange traffic cones to alert all drivers that children are playing in the street. This might work for Bettendorf’s neighborhood. She could even purchase them herself.

It seems worth the expense.

I am thankful my neighbors care enough to do this, as the cones create an immediate brake pedal reaction. And it provides the opportunity for a friendly wave. -- R.R.
