On Monday, May 26, locals gathered on the
green parallel to Ferry Street to honor all current
and fallen veterans of the United States in the
spirit of Memorial Day.
Although it looked like it would rain that
afternoon, causing many attendants to at
rst worry, the inclement weather held off.
Organized by the Town of Hudson American
Legion Post 48, the Sons of the American Legion
Post 48, Squadron 48, as well as Unit 48 of the
Ladies Auxiliary, the parade went as smoothly as
possible as the hundreds of families, friends, and
veterans gathered to give thanks to those who
have or still do serve this country.
Traditionally the American Legion dedicates
the service to one or more members who have
gone above and beyond. This years dedications
were made to Morris J. Levesque (aka Lebesque-
to-the-rescue) and Marilyn (Sam) Boise.
The ceremony on the Green, which was held
directly following the parade, continued as it
traditionally has in the past by including several
prayers, the Pledge of Allegiance, the wreath
ceremony, the 21-gun salute, and the boots of a
fallen soldier. Valarie Harnadeck, commander
of the Ladies Auxiliary Unit 48, summed up the
honorable tradition this way: The reason why
were here are for those who werent able to
come: for those who gave the ultimate sacrice.
Thats what this is all about; were here for those
who never made it home. So keep them in your
prayers and your thoughts.
The parade, which lasted about an hour and a
half, touched all who attended as area residents
showed their respect for veterans past, present,
and future.

Was rain coming or not? Was an umbrella
needed? Those questions faced those attending
the Litcheld Memorial Day Parade and
Program. Some brought umbrellas and some
just chairs, but both groups were keeping a
watchful eye on the skies. Then, just before the
parade began, the sun peeked out and clouds
drifted away. The celebration was ready to
begin.
The parade is a joyful celebration of living in
Litcheld. Town organizations and Litcheld
residents participate. Litcheld Boy Scouts,
Girl Scouts, Baseball teams all took part. One
Brownie troop decorated their scooters and
rode them. The Campbell High First Robotics
Team, which placed rst in the March 2014
competition, loaded their winning robot onto
a truck and showed it off. Candy was thrown
from oats and by those walking the parade
route. Antique vehicles of all types drove in the
parade.
Once the parade ended, watchers gathered in
the parking lot of the Historical Society for

Congratulations to Sara Auclair of Hudson for making the University of
Akrons spring Deans List.
Lakes Region Community College held its 45th Annual
Commencement Ceremony on May 17. Among the graduates was
Hudson resident Benjamin Bates who majored in Media Arts Technology.
Nearly 1,200 students from Northern Essex Community College
graduated during its 52nd commencement ceremony on Saturday, May
17. Among the graduates were Hudson resident Jayce Quinn, Certicate
in Healthcare Technician with honors and Litcheld resident Daphne M.
Valentino, Associate in Arts General Studies.
Sean Cronin of Litcheld, a 2007 graduate of
Campbell High School, graduated from Manchester

Hudson can be proud of two young adults that are
making it in the Big Apple. Heather and Tara Hardy,
the Valedictorian and Salutatorian of Alvirnes class of
2013, continue their academic climb as they strive for a career in Music
Education. Attending the Steinhardt School of Culture, Education and
Human Development at NYU they ended the year in customary style as
they made the Deans List. Unlike other colleges the only way to make
the Deans List at NYU is to achieve straight As for the entire year. This
is quite the task as there are many instruments that they have to learn in
order to teach music professionally.
It is not all work in the Big City, however. Being in the middle of
the entertainment world allows them to see some of their favorite
independent bands and even attend The Daily Show. Part of their
studies sent them to Paris, France, where they were able to study the
culture and music of this beautiful city. They will be returning to NYU
in August when they will be greeters welcoming the
incoming freshman. Thumbs up and High Fives to
two hometown girls making us proud in New York
City.
Mary Holleran of Hudson has graduated from the
University of New Hampshire as a University Honors
Program Presidential Scholar and Summa Cum Laude.
Mary received the England Achievement Award as
the Occupational Therapy Department Scholar. Mary
won rst place in the College of Health and Human
Services Grimes Undergraduate Research Competition and as top in her
class was her Colleges Class Marshall at the 2014 graduation.

First graders recently invited their grandparents and special friends to Grifn
Memorial School. The crowd included many happy Nanas and Grampas as well
as Aunts, Uncles, and Moms and Dads. The featured event of the morning was
a wonderful concert of music from the British Isles. Working with music teacher
Mrs. LaBelle and art teacher Mrs. Miller, students learned songs, dances and even
wooden spoon instruments to perform songs from England, Ireland and Scotland.
After the performance, special guests were recognized for things like largest
number of grandchildren (over 12) and farthest distance traveled to attend (over
1,300 miles). Then, the students escorted their guests to their classrooms to see
their work and have pictures taken. Refreshments and photos were organized by
PTO member Melanie Neily and the rst grade room parents. This is a fun annual
tradition at GMS creating a happy memory for students and their families.

Nashua Fire Rescue notied the Hudson Fire
Department on Saturday, May 24, at 8:21 a.m., of a person
in the Merrimack River just south of the Veterans Bridge.
Nine Hudson reghters and ofcers stafng one engine,
one ambulance, one marine unit and one command
vehicle, responded to Merrill Park at the end of Maple
Street. Nashua reghters on their side of the river spotted
the subject on the Hudson riverbank after being assisted to
shore by a second sculler.
Nashua notied Hudson of the victims location, and reghters
searched the riverbank for a short time nding the sculler cold
and wet with no other injury. A ladder was placed against the
steep riverbank so reghters could assist the boater to a waiting
ambulance. Once the sculler was in the ambulance, reghters
climbed back down the steep bank to retrieve the scull.
The incident took place while the sculler was completing a
practice run along the river, and, for an unknown
reason, the boat tipped over throwing the sculler
into the cold water.
With the rain over the last few days, the river
height is up and the current is faster than normal.
The sculler was not wearing a lifejacket at the time
of the incident. Hudson Fire Department urges
anyone who uses a waterway for sport or recreation to wear a
lifejacket, have other otation devises available and always have a
second person along for safety.

AHS JROTC Ceremony Marks Change of Command
by Marc Ayotte
Fighting off
the misty, cold
temperatures on
Tuesday, May 27,
the Alvirne High
School Air Force
Junior ROTC held
its annual Change
of Command
Ceremony
outside on the
football eld.
Narrator Cadet 1st
Lieutenant Brandon
Martin gave a
brief accounting
of the history of
the Change of
Command prior
to recognizing the
top performer
accomplishments
of Air Force Junior
ROTC Cadet/
Airman rst class
David Trenholm,
who as a result,
was then promoted
to Cadet/2nd
class. Immediately
following, Cadet Airman Mackenzie Catanzaro entertained
spectators with a beautiful rendition of the national anthem.
The event, rich in tradition, acknowledges the outgoing leadership
and welcomes in the new leadership. The ROTC program at Alvirne
began in 2004 under Senior Aero Space Instructor (SASI) Colonel
Kevin M. Grady. The days ceremony was under the supervision of
Senior Master Sergeant Michael Dubeau, who has been with the
program since 2006.
After the color guard marched to the center of the eld, the
physical change of command ensued. New leaders were welcomed
in, replacing current commanders in four categories: group
commander as well as three squadron commander positions in the
areas of operations, mission support and logistics.
According to Sergeant Dubeau, the operations squadron is
responsible for day-to-day operations of the program (including
the drill team), the logistics squadron handles all the equipment,
including more than $20,000 worth of uniforms, and the mission
squadron is accountable for daily paper work, including personnel
les.
This year, the group command for the JR ROTC passed from
Cadet Colonel Josh Canarelli to Cadet Colonel Tim Campbell. The
operations command passed from Cadet Lt. Colonel John Giraldo
to Cadet Lt. Colonel Noah Cote. The logistics squadron command
post changed from outgoing Cadet Lt. Colonel Denissa Devarie
to incoming Cadet Lt. Colonel Casey Davies while the mission
support squadron command passed to Cadet Lt. Colonel Libby
Regan from senior Cadet Lt. Colonel Josh Debrecini. In each case,
the change involved the exchange: Sir, I relinquish command,
followed by Sir, I assume command, by the outgoing and incoming
commanders, respectively.
In concluding the ceremony, the cadets exited the eld to the beat
of the AHS band, directed by Music Director Gerry Bastien as they
performed John Phillips Sousas song, Sousa. After each squadron
engaged in passing in front of the reviewing party, Sergeant Dubeau
reected on this years ceremony: It went really well. Im incredibly
proud. Sergeant Dubeau continued by noting that this was a rst-
time experience for many of the AHS JROTC programs members:
We have 40 freshmen who have never done anything like this
before.
Standing alongside Cadet 2nd Class Trenholm, who celebrated
his 18th birthday on May 24, Sergeant Dubeau commented briey
on his newly promoted cadets future role: He will be the senior
ranking member for the junior class. With pride, Trenholm reected
on his own accomplishments by revealing; Im proud of myself to
make it this far. I couldnt have done it without all the support of the
ROTC program. Its such an honor to make it to this point.
A special appreciation goes out to Chris McNally for his
contribution to this article.
Congratulations to the 2014 graduating senior cadets, from left:
Eaon Welchlin, Josh Canarelli, Carolyn Deneault, Josh Debreceni,
Denissa Devarie, Dean McCloud, Maddie Gannon, Shawyn Hebert,

Town Attorney
Recommends that
Selectmen Deny
Charitable Request
by Len Lathrop
During a public input session of the Hudson Selectmen on May
13, Goodwill Industrys attorney was before the board requesting
a charitable exemption. Goodwill purchased the Stop and Shop
building on the corner of Lowell Road and Wason Road on March
31.
The date for tax assessment is April 1, and Goodwill wants the
exemption as they had bought it the day prior to the deadline.
While Goodwill purchased the building, they dont own the land,
Stop and Shop never owned the land, but only had a 75-year
ground lease from Sousa Reality. Selectmen, on the 13th, were not
sure as they have not occupied the building yet and do not have a
certicate of occupancy from the town. They asked for an opinion
from the town attorney.
The town attorney advised the selectmen during the May 27
meeting that Goodwill did not qualify for the exemption under RSA
72:23 Section 5. He advised that for the exemption the charitable
organization must own, use and occupy the property to qualify for
the exemption.
The property, known as Lot 41 on Map 222, has a value of more
than $6.25 million with a tax payment of over $125,000 per year.

Which War was the Wrong War?
Regarding the Tumbs down New Rule comment in
the 12 May thumbs column. Which war was the wrong
war? Are we talking about the Iraqi war? Would this
be the same war that prominent democrats like Dianne
Feinstein, Joe Lieberman (at the time a democrat) Barbara
Boxer, John Kerry (did you know he served in Vietnam?)
Hillary Clinton and of course lets not forget President
William J. Clinton whom addressed the Joint Chiefs
of Staf on February 17, 1998 before Bush became
president about Clear Evidence of Te Iraqi Weapons
of Mass Destruction Program and warned if the United
States failed to respond he (Saddam Hussein) would use
them.
In fact Hussein did everything he could in his power
to give the appearance of having a WMD program,
especially thwarting UN inspections on many occasions,
even giving the impression they were moving weapons
around. Not to mention the fact that he used chemical
weapons on his own people. Lets investigate how the
intelligence community comprised of many nations
got the intelligence wrong and how Saddam Hussein
contributed to that intelligence failure. George
Bush acted on this intelligence and the advice of his
predecessor. Iraq also violated numerous UN resolutions
put in place at the end of the Kuwait war, a war necessary
because Iraq invaded a sovereign nation and that nation
asked the United States to help.
Now lets talk about Benghazi. Lets talk about the
compilation of lies on top of lies put out by the Obama
administration. Were learning now that Obama
purposely misled the American people for political
reasons. We know now that then Secretary of State
Hillary Clinton directed her staf to put out a bogus story
as the reason four Americans were killed. Lets question
the right of the American people to know why and how
4 Americans died. Lets see if we can fnd the answers the
families of those that died should have so they can put to
rest a tragedy we as a nation deserve to know. We deserve
to know who gave orders for our military to stand down
and allow those Americans to fend for themselves. We
deserve what this administration promised on the day
those Americans were returned to American soil, answers.
Te left is eager to make the war in Iraq about oil. It
may or may not have been about oil. If it was about
oil lets question the left what we as a nation are doing
to reduce our dependency on that oil. We have the
resources in the country (and Im not talking about wind
and the sun) to greatly reduce our dependency on foreign
oil as a nation. But we have the left doing all it can to
keep us dependent on the very resource they accuse the
right of going to war over. In the end, left and right
agreed to and voted to send Americans to die in Iraq, but
it was this administration that chose to cover up a tragedy
that never should have happened. All the intelligence
was in place and the warnings were given months in
advance as the dangers those in Benghazi were up against.
It was intelligence ignored and it cost the lives of four
Americans.

Memorializing a Special Friend;
Give in Jeanies Memory
When you think of memorializing a friend, you may
think of a garden, or a plaque, or maybe even having a
meeting placed named after you. Would you think of a
blood drive? I do.
Te Jeanie Barkley Memorial Blood Drive is being held
on June 13, 2014 at the Hudson Community Center
from 12-7 p.m., 12 Lions Ave., Hudson NH. Te Red
Cross is running this blood drive in memory of Jeanie,
and it is the seventh annual drive to remind us of her
undying spirit of volunteering and the betterment of her
fellow man.
Jeanie was a tireless volunteer for the town of Hudson.
She was always seen at the schools, sporting events, band
events, Girl Scout gatherings, church outings, pretty
much everywhere. She had a beautiful smile, a signature
giggle and a tireless drive to volunteer her time to give
back to the community that gave so much to her family.
She was always following her girls to every event, parade,
competition and gathering. With her husband by her
side, they were seen pretty much everywhere.
Jeanie was taken from us much too soon. Diagnosed
with Aplastic Anemia in 2006, she underwent over 100
transfusions to help her with basic daily activities. Her
body did not produce the life giving cells that she needed.
She was amazed at how many people had to give blood
in order for her to receive blood. A selfess act that kept
her going.
Giving is Good. If you are able to donate blood,

Ask Someone Else to
Get out and Vote
Tis past town election I was one of four candidates
for selectman. I didnt come in last. Do you know who
I beat (without looking it up)? Te incumbent was
defeated. Do you know his name? Better yet, do you
know the name of the candidate who won, again, without
looking it up?
In the town election, 3,620 votes were cast. Tat is
a pretty good turnout by town election standards. In a
town of 25,000 or so people, how many do you think are
eligible to vote in the town election? How many of those
are registered voters? Out of that number were the 3,620
people who actually voted.
We have a copy of P.J. ORourkes book, Parliament
of Whores which was copyright in 1991. I just started
reading it. Te book is a sarcastic look at the federal
government. On page four, the author cites a survey
about the 1988 presidential election. Tis survey came to
the conclusion that American voters today do not seem
to understand their rightful places in the operation of a
democracy. Wrong again. Its democracy that doesnt
understand its rightful place in the operation of us to
shut up and get out of our faces.
Now aside from the erroneous notion we live in a
democracy [its a constitutional republic], its relevant
that I just started reading the book, because, for the last
three town election cycles for selectman and for just about
every other ofce Ive sought, Ive advocated for getting
the government out of our way.
I will continue to advocate getting government out of
the way whether I run for ofce or not. P.J. ORourkes
book should be required reading for anyone running
for ofce because it explains through sarcasm and
humor why so many people do not vote, much less run
for public ofce. To my fellow candidates in past and
future elections, ask yourself whether you want to be the
object of derision as described in the book by giving the
people more of the same in government at the federal,
state, or local levels. To those same candidates, is the
overall trend to greater participation in government or
less participation? Are your actions doing anything to
change those perceptions? To get an accurate answer to
the question, you need to ask the people who dont vote
why they dont. Do not assume that just because you vote
to paint something a diferent color that you are doing
something diferent.
One of the current selectmen once told me that he was
working to make the permitting process to start a business
in town more efcient. To me, that is like helping the
IRS to extract money from us in a more efcient manner.
Do we really want to make the IRS more efcient? Or
do we want to make certain functions of government the
most efcient possible because they are not even there?
I appeal to the people who did not vote because you
are the *only* people who can make a diference. I thank
the people who did vote for me last election, but there are
not enough of you. I do not hold out hope that we can
draw enough voters from the current pool of active voters
to make for meaningful change. I do, however ask the
people who did vote for me to fnd one, just one, non-
voter and get them registered and to the polls. You may
have to ask more than one to be sure to get one.
I will be doing the same.

A Red Herring Using
Cherry-picked Data
Te question: Is there Global Warming? is obviously
the question: is the Globe Warming on average? To
answer whether the globe is warming, scientists look at
average global temperature over several years or decades.
Tis we should all easily agree with.
Cherry Picking is the art of showing only some
information, with the information selected because it
alone happens to support ones claim. Cherry picking is
a common tactic of those who do not have the facts on
their side. If someone shows you some narrow data for
a season, for a month, a day, or a location, you should
be suspicious if they use it to claim that the globe is not
warming. Te temperature record in Maine is interesting
if you live in Maine. But to answer whether the globe
is warming, you look at average global temperature,
obviously.
Another point: Data for the number of record highs
for a date or record lows for a date mathematically show
a downward trend, even with no climate change. A little
thought shows why. Te frst year that a thermometer
is installed in a state, you will see 365 days that are the
highest on record for that date. You will also see 365
days that are the lowest on record for that date. Te
next year you will see a few records set, but you will not
see 730 new records. As time goes on it less likely to
set a new record for a date so the trend of the counts is
downward. Anyone using a count of record temperatures
to claim that recent weather is benign is using a Red
Herring. Tat is an argument used to distract you from
the important point, which in this case is increasing
average global temperatures. A plot of record lows in the
United States rather than the whole globe is a double hit:
a Red Herring using Cherry Picked data.
Occurrences of extremes are quite variable. Ask a
statistician about an F test using the Chi- Squared
Distribution, compared to a Normal Distribution.
Te gist is that it takes a huge amount of data to show
any change in variability. Tat is why climate scientists
say that some wild weather does not show much. Te
sample is just too small. (But some politicians may claim
it does.)
So there are three reasons why some people, faced with
obviously increasing average global temperatures, now
claim that all-time state records are what count. First,
the trend is mathematically biased to be down. Second,
it would take a very long time to statistically show any
increases in the frequency of new record temperatures.
Tird, showing state data is cherry picking. Meanwhile
they have created an atmosphere of doubt as we all watch
the globe get warmer.
For average global temperatures, that show the globe
is warming, you can see http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/cag/
time-series/us.
If you question the land based thermometer data, you
might instead look at higher ocean temperature data,
higher satellite temperature data, and higher weather
balloon temperature data. Or look at bore hole data and
retreating glaciers and diminished sea ice. Taken together
they all show that the globe is warming.

Whats Happening with
Warrant Article 17?
Tose residents who voted in the last election in town
remember that the last warrant article on the ballot
(number 17) addressed the corrupting infuence of money
in government. Fortunately Hudson joined 53 other
towns and municipalities in the state voting in favor of an
article, calling further attention to this growing problem.
Credit is due to House Representatives Lars Christiansen
and Jordan Ulery who voted with their constituents to
work toward getting big money out of politics.
However many other Representatives, namely: Patrick
Culbert, Shawn Jasper, Richard LeVasseur, both Russell
and Lynne Ober, Andrew Renzullo and Charlene
Takesian (Pelham) all voted against it; so we should ask
them for their justifcation for doing so. Arent elected
ofcials supposed to represent their constituents?
In the Senate, there were 23 votes to pass Senate Bill
307 (SB307 - with an Amendment) and one opposed,
initially. But then there was a Non-concur request for
Committee of Conference which passed by a vote of 12
to 11. Tat is, partisan politics intervened in what looked
like promising cooperation to solve a problem. So here is
where we are.
A Committee of Conference (COC) has been formed,
which has until May 30 to complete their report. Ten
both the House and Senate have a deadline to accept or
reject it by June 5. Te COC has to give unanimous
approval to the conference report. If they dont agree, the
bill dies. If they do agree on a report, it has to be ratifed
by both the House and Senate. House members of the
COC are: Chairman Rep. Robert Teberge, Rep. Lorrie
Carey, Rep. Linda Massimilla and Rep. Ann Priestley.
Senate members are: Russell Prescott, Jeb Bradley and
Martha Fuller Clark.
Tere are many who feel that the NH delegation is
not heeding the advice of their constituents in the 54
towns mentioned above. (See the following article in the
Concord Monitor at: http://www.concordmonitor.com/
home/11953581-95/my-turn-senators-not-listening-
to-people-of-nh-about-campaign-spending which tells
about one Senator who has eight towns that voted in
support within her district yet she voted against.) Our
own Senator, Sharon Carson frst voted for SB307 (with
amendment) but then against it essentially (by voting
for the committee). So once again, if you believe in
this fght, contact your representatives in the House and
Senate who should be representing your interests and urge
them to concur.
A clear majority of Hudson residents voted in favor
of addressing the corrupting infuence of big money in
government by voting Yes on warrant article 17. Now
we must hold our elected ofcials accountable for their
votes. Stay involved and well win this battle.
Votes can be seen at: http://gencourt.state.nh.us/ State
Legislation Dashboard (then search for bills). If you have
a question on particular bills but dont know the names/
numbers contact the House Clerk or Senate Clerk at:
(603) 271-2548 or (603) 271-3420. Your participation
matters!

If you are looking to get rid of your old
clothes or shoes and other unwanted items
while helping a good cause, look no further
than the yellow Planet Aid donation bins
scattered through Hudson. The bins are
placed on site at no cost to the town or
property owner. Planet Aid has been in town
since 2011. With 12 different collection
bins across Hudson, residents have the
convenience of donating their unwanted items
at any time without having to go out of town
or drive very far.
The Hudson community has been very
welcoming in all aspects of business.
Planet Aid uses local
companies to perform
maintenance on its
buildings and vehicles.
Planet Aid also
patronizes all current
site hosts by utilizing
the services they offer
before shopping it out
elsewhere. By taking
part in the 2014 Annual
Roadside cleanup, the
2014 Business Expo,
and an Earth Day event
at Prime Subaru, the
non-prot organization
had a chance to explain
its mission and show
fellow Hudson residents
its commitment to the
community. We are a
non-prot company but the employees who
work here are very generous with our time
and skills and will help most anyone out in
any way we can, said Planet Aid Hudson
Operations Manager Patrick Holland.
Last year alone Planet Aid collected a total
of 171,513 pounds of clothing and shoes in
Hudson.
Half of our charitable mission is fullled
the moment someone donates to anyone
because it keeps the clothes from ending up
in our landlls, Holland said. We view the
environmental prong of our mission as equally
important to our development work. Our
message is recycle, and do so in the manner
that works best for each individual donor.
The national non-prot organization
has a twofold mission of helping the
humanitarian cause and also giving
people an alternative to adding extra
rubbish to the dump sites around the
country.
Residents can drop off toys, handbags,
glass, sporting goods, books, and
miscellaneous household goods in the
bins. All donated items are packaged into
cap sacks and sold to buyers around the
world which sell the items at thrift stores
for reduced prices. Most items are sold
and shipped out within 48 hours of being
collected.
About 85 percent of the world cant
afford new clothes so there is a market for
this, Holland said.
Their net proceeds go to over 40 relief and
community programs in third world countries.
Some of these programs include Farmers Co-
Op, teachers college, and a school lunch
program in Mozambique.
Planet Aids mission starts with the
collection bins. These bins are re and
waterproof and the dimensions measure 4 by
4 feet wide and 7 feet tall.
The bins make it more convenient than
other avenues, however, Holland explained.
We dont have store hours; we are located
throughout the city so youre never more than
one quarter to half a mile from a bin at any
time, 99 percent of your clothing is collected
and processed by New Hampshire residents
(we have one Massachusetts resident who
works here).
Planet Aid has insurance on all its bins and
is responsible for the upkeep around the bin to
keep the quality of the property intact. A free
pick-up service is also included on a routine
schedule as requested by the property owner.
We work with the zoning board and site
owners to ensure its placed in compliance to
the town wants, Holland said.
You can donate unwanted items to the
following 12 sites in town with donation bins:
Auto Outlet, Ayottes Stateline Smokn Joe, Ds
Autobody, Haffners, Hudson Bridge Express
and Gulf, Munroe Mufer/Brake, Nottingham
West Elementary School, Prime Subaru,
Seven-Eleven, Showtime Computers, St. Johns
Evangelist Church, and Tate Bros Paving co.
Planet Aid is a non-prot organization that
originated in the Northeast United States in
1997 and now has buildings and collection
bins across the country. They have donated
over $80 million to help community building
projects in sub-Saharan Africa, Asia, and
Central America. These projects help small
farmers feed their families, train teachers,
and educate children. In the United States,
Planet Aid also helps support communities
by donating winter coats to the homeless
and provides relief after natural disasters or
tornados.

Placing of American Flags AHS Students Sweep State SkillsUSA
Competition with Trifecta
submitted by Joan Decoste
Universal Technical Institute, the leading provider
of post-secondary education for students seeking
careers as professional automotive, diesel, collision
repair, motorcycle and marine technicians, awarded
$17,000 in scholarships to three students from Alvirne
High School for their success in the Diesel Equipment
Technology Competition at the recent SkillsUSA New
Hampshire.
Derek Grifth, a junior in the Heavy Duty
Mechanics course at Alvirne High School, received
the gold award for nishing in rst place at the
statewide competition and earned a $10,000
scholarship to UTI. As the rst place winner, Grifth
qualies to compete at the national SkillsUSA
Championship on June 25 in Kansas City, where he
will have the opportunity to earn more scholarships
and prizes.
Kris Wojtkun was awarded a $5,000 scholarship
for winning second place and the silver award while
Casey Silva was awarded a $2,000 scholarship for
earning third place and the bronze award. Both
students are seniors in the Heavy Duty Mechanics
course at Alvirne and plan to pursue advanced
training to prepare them for a career in the diesel
industry.
In addition to the scholarship awards, the
three students will each receive free tuition for a
manufacturer-specic advanced training program
offered at UTI, programs that are offered beyond the
standard diesel or automotive education programs.
The Diesel Equipment Technology Competition is
a day-long SkillsUSA event that brings together the
top diesel technology students from across the state to
compete in hands-on work stations and take a written
exam to test their knowledge and skills. The students
cycle through 14 stations to test and troubleshoot
engines, electrical and electronics systems, and power
train systems including chassis, transmissions, and
carriers. Students also demonstrate skills in hydraulic
systems, vehicle inspections, fundamental failure
analysis, brake systems, air-conditioning systems, and
general shop skills.
Adam Vignault, instructor for the Heavy Duty
Mechanics course at Alvirnes Agricultural Mechanics
and Diesel Technology program, selected ve of his
students for the competition.
All of my students worked hard and put in extra
time outside of class to prepare for this competition.
Winning the top-three spots in this competition is a
credit to our diesel technology program and a huge
accomplishment for these students. Im extremely
proud of them, said Vignault.
UTI Field Admissions Representative Paul Picard,
who presented the scholarship awards to the students,
said the scholarships can be used at the UTI-Norwood
campus near Boston, or at any of the 11 UTI
campuses across the country.
UTI is proud to offer scholarships to these
students and to support SkillsUSA New Hampshire.
Competitions like this allow students to test the
knowledge and skills theyve learned in classes
like Mr. Vignaults and help
demonstrate the importance of
technical education in our high
schools, said Picard. Theres
a need for qualied diesel
technicians in New Hampshire
and across the country, and its
great to support opportunities for
students interested in pursuing a
career in this eld.
SkillsUSA is a partnership of
students, teachers and industry
working together to ensure
America has a skilled workforce.
The organization supports
students who are preparing for
careers in trade, technical and
skilled service occupations. Each
year, UTI sponsors and awards
approximately $10 million in
tuition scholarships and participates in numerous high
school competition programs across the country.
Headquartered in Scottsdale, Ariz., Universal
Technical Institute provides post-secondary
education for students seeking careers as
professional automotive, diesel, collision repair,
motorcycle and marine technicians. With more
than 180,000 graduates in its 49-year history, UTI

Your
natural
teeth are
meant to
last a
lifetime.
However,
during the
course of a
lifetime one
or more of your teeth may
be subject to physical
trauma or dental decay.
When this happens the living
tissue within the tooth, (pulp),
is injured. If the injury is
severe enough then the pulp
is unable to repair itself and it
dies. The tooth subsequently
becomes infected. Left
untreated the tooth will
become abscessed and the
supporting bone may be
destroyed. In the years past,
a tooth in such a condition
would have to be extracted.
Today endodontics has
given dentists a safe,
comfortable, and effective
means for saving teeth that
otherwise would have been
lost. This technique is popularly
called root canal therapy.
Without this treatment an
infected tooth will have to be
removed.
Whenever possible it is
always better to restore
natural teeth than to replace
them. Many problems can
arise after the loss of a single
tooth. Adjacent and
opposing teeth will shift in an
effort to close the space
created by the lost tooth. Mal
aligned teeth, with unnatural
spaces may result in difficult
oral hygiene maintenance.
This invites dental diseases,
such as peridontal disease
and often decay.
Remember a healthy
restored smile is always better
than an artificial one. As long
as an endodontically treated
tooth is properly cared for to
prevent periodontal disease
and decay it will last a lifetime.
Remember, many of these
problems can be prevented
with regular professional
dental care.

Nashua Catholic Science Fair is Tribute
to Cartoonist Rube Goldberg
submitted by Nashua Catholic
Fish were being caught, photos were being taken,
pancakes were being grilled, bread was being sliced, and
guitars were being strum during Nashua Catholics annual
eighth grade science fair - but not by the students, but
rather by the machines that they had invented. Over 110
different machines, inspired by cartoonist Rube Goldberg,
were on display in the schools auditorium that could
complete various tasks in a minimum of four steps using
such simple machines as a pulley, wedge, lever, screw,
and wheel. They had been built from items that the
students found around their houses, in their garages, and
even in their garbage.
It was fun making my Rube Goldberg machine, said
George AbouRaad of Hudson, who made a machine to
squeeze toothpaste onto a toothbrush. I learned that it
was a lot harder to put the machines in order to bring it
all together than just drawing the original
design. The pulley was something I had
to work on to make it lift the domino.
Goldberg, an American cartoonist,
was educated as an engineer but is best
known for a series of popular cartoons
depicting complex gadgets that perform
simple tasks in indirect, convoluted ways
that usually include a chain reaction.
Most students remember playing the
popular 1963 board game, Mouse Trap,
which was based on Rube Goldbergs
machines. Goldberg won a Pulitzer
Prize in 1948 for his creative and
entertaining cartoons.
A lot of work goes into making these
machines. The idea is to come up with
a simple task and make it extraordinarily
complicated, said Susan Paoni, OFS,
science teacher at Nashua Catholic.
Its not as easy as it looks, and students
discover after several failed attempts
which type of machine works best to
accomplish a particular task.
When asked how often his machine worked
successfully, George said, I would like it to be more, but
only about 40 percent of the time.
Our students have fun with this project, Paoni added.
This project challenges their creativity and helps to
develop their engineering skills.
Nashua Catholic Regional Junior High School affords
an outstanding education based on a solid curriculum that
is rooted in the Catholic tradition. Accredited by the New
England Association of Schools and Colleges, Nashua
Catholic follows diocesan guidelines and surpasses the
state curriculum standards. Nashua Catholic, a vibrant
and exciting Christ-centered school, exceeds expectations
every day. For more information, please contact the
Admissions Ofce at 882-7011, or learn more by visiting
the schools website at www.ncrjhs.org.

The Nottingham West Elementary School has watched
little pink salmon eggs grow into salmon fry. Mr. Crivacs
class set up the tank this year in the hallway so the whole
school could watch, even while sometimes the tank had to
be wrapped in Styrofoam to keep it keep the temperature
between 42 and 47 degrees, the temperature where these
little sh survive. Crivacs wife, Karen, a science teacher at
Bishop Guertin, also exposed her classes to the salmon and
brought their fry to the river to be released together with the
NWES fry.
Saturdays eld trip to Merrill Park gave those who
ventured down the bank to where the second brook meets
the Merrimack an opportunity to release the fry. With little
blue nets in hand, students, their family and friends released
the babies, one or two at a time.
For those without a deep knowledge of salmon:
The students started with
fertilized eggs (Atlantic
salmon) provided by the
Nashua National Fish
Hatchery located at exit 6 in
Nashua. Doug Smithwood
and Claudia Ostaudelafont,
the contact biologists there,
are very supportive of the
program that brings salmon
into the classrooms. When
we picked the eggs up at the
hatchery they are eyed eggs
which means the developing
salmon can be seen through
the semi-transparent
membrane. The eggs were
in a chilled tank for about a
week prior to them hatching and becoming alevin.
The alevin have a yolk sac that keeps them nourished for
about three to four weeks. This is natures way of ensuring
the little ones can stay nourished as they snuggle into the
rocks and other cover on the river bottom. After the yolk sac
has been depleted, the students feed the fry small amounts
of high protein sh granules once a day until the release day.
The Crivacs mentioned that the chiller is generously
loaned to NWES and Bishop Guertin each year by the
Merrimack Valley Chapter of Trout Unlimited. Their support,
along with the support of NH Fish and Game, is vital to the
success of this program. We strive to release these salmon
locally each year so that the students at NWES and BG will
become stewards of the Merrimack River watershed for years
to come. If they are connected to the river it is our hope
they will care for it.

the program. A warm
welcome was offered
by Dr. Steven Calawa.
The program is always
dedicated to those who
have served and are
serving the country in the
armed forces.
The Campbell High School choirs and school band provide a
wonderful musical program each year, which always ends with
echo taps as the wreaths are laid in remembrance of those who
have made the ultimate sacrice for our country.
This year the 100th anniversary of World War I was
remembered by In Flanders Fields and American the Beautiful.
The 70th anniversary of D-Day was honored with the Campbell
High School choirs singing Battle Hymn of the Republic. Jacob
McQuesten honored the Civil War soldier, and the Campbell High
School Band played The Blue and the Gray. Before the music
was over, the band played a melody of armed forces songs, and
audience members were asked to stand and be recognized when
their song was ended.
Dr. Calawa made a few closing remarks and invited everyone
into the historical society building to see a display of Civil War
artifacts and World War II newspapers.

The Londonderry Invitational was
the site of the regular season nale
in D-I track and eld on Saturday,
May 24. The AHS bus made the
short trip to the Lancers home
where the Broncos participated
in the non-scoring meet that was
used as preparation for the states at
Winnacunnet High School on Friday,
May 30, beginning at 4 p.m. Earlier in
the week, Alvirne hosted Manchester
Central and came away with a pair of
wins, taking the boys division by a
lopsided 109-21 score while the girls
walked away with a more subdued,
although still convincing, 88-48 win.
In the dual meet against Central,
the boys team recorded 11 rst place
nishes out of the 18 total events.
Leading the Broncos team scoring
were individual performances in two
track events in particular: the 400
and 1600 meter run. In the 400,
Robert Younghusband (53.7) edged
out teammate Noah Bellomo (54.0)
with PJ Busnach coming in a close
third with a time of 55.8 seconds to
sweep the event. In the longer 1600,
Phil Demers continued his strong
showings, nishing with a time of
4:37.3 while Kendall Westhoff was just
seconds behind at 4:44.9.
Other rst place nishes for Alvirne
included Cody Coulombe shot
put, 42 feet 4 inches; Kyle Salucco
long jump, 18 feet 9 inches; Jake
Schoeld triple jump (uncontested),
30 feet, 7 inches, high jump 5 feet,
5 inches; Eddie Barry 110 hurdles,
17.6 (edging out Noah Cote (17.8);
Cote 300 IM hurdles 46.5; Kyle
Saunders 800-meter run, 2:05.1;
Chris Beaudin 200-meter run, 24.0,
edging teammates Tim Campbell (24.4)
and Peter Mertins (24.6); and Brendan
Lavalley 3200 meter, 12:00.2.
Similarly on the girls side of the
score sheet, they were also able to post
eleven rst place nishes. Leading the Lady Broncos with two
of those was Tana Tufts; taking the 100-meter dash with a time
of 13.4 seconds while also grabbing honors in the 200 meter
(27.6). Nine other athletes captured rst in their respective
events: Samantha Giannelli shot put, 28 feet 10 inches;
Sidney Calvagna long jump, 14 feet 10 inches; Tori LaRoche
triple jump, 32 feet, 8.5 inches; Brittney Lambert high
jump, 5 feet, 1 inch; Erin Rosier 100m hurdles, 17.2; Kellye
Houdagba 400m run, 1:07.5; Marie Morrier 300m hurdles,
50.8; Emily Barry 800-meter run 2:34.4; and Elizabeth
Katsohis 3200-meter run, 15:23.1.
At Londonderry, the boys were represented with a total of
eight top 10 nishes while
the girls posted six of their
own. The best nish on the
girls side came from Brittney
Lambert who cleared the bar
at 5 feet, 4 inches to take
second overall in the high
jump, while Tori LaRoche
shined with a pair of top 10
nishes; eighth in the discus
with a throw of 85 feet,
5.75 inches and ninth in the
triple jump with a distance
of 31 feet, 7.75 inches. For
the boys, Ethan Rainvilles
throw of 120 feet, 3.5 inches
in the discus, earned him a
third place nish among all
participants. However, a
dominating showing took place when three Bronco runners
placed in the top ten in the competitive 3200-meter event.
Kendall Westhoff led Alvirne (fth overall) with a sub-10
minute time of 9:58.40, followed by Phil Demers (seventh,
10:04.76) and Noah Bellomo (10th, 10:18.14).
Rounding out the notable performances for Alvirne were
Cody Coulombe shot put, sixth, 42 feet, 5.25 inches; the
4x400 relay team of Noah Cote, John Sojka, PJ Busnach, Kyle
Saunders sixth, 3:40.31; Saunders 800-meter run, eighth,
2:03.40; Robert Younghusband 400-meter run, 10th, 53.06;
Shaylyn Saunders 800-meter run, fth, 2:24.56; Emily Barry
800 meter, sixth, 2:28.26.

On May 21, Alvirne began its stretch of four games in seven
days, as they traveled to Winnacunnet, who came into the contest
winners of three in a row, but had lost nine straight prior to that.
Tyler Brown, who was brilliant on the hill in his last outing, was
victimized by three unearned runs and a woeful offense as the
Broncos fell to the Warriors by a 7-3 score.
Brown was tagged with the loss after going 4.1 innings, allowing
6 runs on 5 hits while fanning seven and walking four. In relief,
Kyle McKinley and Jacen Hudson combined to throw 1.1 innings of
no-hit, no-run ball while Dan Brown went one third of an inning,
surrendering one run on three hits.
Trailing 2-0 after three, Alvirne cut the Winnacunnet lead in half
with a single run in the fourth. Andrew Teague provided the Broncos
with its sole RBI of the day when he reached on a elders choice
scoring Robbie Flohr. It didnt take long before the Warriors put the
game out of reach, recording four runs in the home half of the fth
for a 6-1 cushion. A pair of inconsequential, unearned runs in the
seventh inning made the scoreboard a little more appealing, but,
nonetheless, dropped the Broncos to 8 wins and ve losses on the
year. The quiet offense was able to produce just ve singles with
Matt McKinley, Tyler Brown, Kyle McKinley, Jacen Hudson and Josh
Nardelli each recording one.
Two days later the Broncos hosted Nashua North who came to
Hudson, owners of an 8-10 mark. Once again, the offense was
virtually nonexistent, collecting just four hits on the afternoon as the
Titans came up large with a ve-run fourth inning and held on for a
5-3 verdict. Robbie Flohr got the start on the mound and took the
loss after giving up all ve runs (three earned) on seven hits while
striking out four and walking two in four innings of work. Kyle
McKinley went the last three innings, allowing just one hit while
fanning three as well as walking three.
The Broncos took a 1-0 lead in the second when Kyle McKinleys
single plated Florh (1-2, run, 3B). In the third inning, the lead
doubled when Matt McKinley singled to center, scoring Dan Brown.
The McKinley tandem accounted for three of the four AHS hits, as
well as both runs batted in, on the afternoon. An unearned run
made it 3-0, but the ve-run North eruption in the top of the fourth
was too much for the Broncos to overcome as their record slipped to
8-6.
In a rescheduled affair that took place on Saturday, May 24, the
Bronco offense remained ineffective, mustering up just four hits as
they fell to visiting Concord, 7-3. The Crimson were led by shortstop
and lead-off hitter Ben Bengston who banged-up Bronco pitching;
going 4-for-4 with the key hit coming in the four-run second inning,
as his bases-emptying double put his team ahead to stay, at 4-1.
Ethan Beals was the starting and losing hurler, going two innings
allowing ve runs (zero earned) on just two hits. Jacen Hudson
came in and pitched the next three, allowing two earned runs on
four hits, striking out three, while Matt McKinley nished up; giving
up just one hit and fanning two in two innings on the hill.
Alvirne got on the board in the second, when for the second time
in three games, Andrew Teagues elders choice scored Robbie
Flohr, making it 5-1. Two unearned runs in the home half of the
third brought the Broncos to within a pair, at 5-3, but thats as close
as they would get. Outside of an opposite eld double to left center
by Dan Brown, Alvirnes hits consisted of three singles; one each
from Flohr, Derek Hudson and Jacen Hudson. With the loss, their
third in a row, Alvirnes record dipped to just one game over the .500
mark, at 8-7.
On May 27, the Broncos traveled to Manchester to take on
Memorial and incurred more of what has plagued them during
this recent slide. Offensively, the bats remained quiet; defensively,
another big inning in the form of a ve-run second, catapulted the
Crusaders to the 6-5 win. The loss was Alvirnes fourth in a row;
dropping them to an even 8-8 on the year as they fell to eighth place
in the D-I standings.
Things started well for Alvirne as they jumped out to a 2-0,
rst inning lead
compliments of a
two-run double from
Robbie Flohr (1-1, 2
runs) that scored Tyler
Brown and Derek
Hudson. However,
the Broncos could
not sustain the lead;
surrendering ve runs
in Memorials next at
bat. Lowlights for the
inning included two
walks with the bases
loaded, an unearned
run, in addition to an
RBI elders choice.
Nevertheless, Alvirne
did battle back to score
three in the top of the
third. Matt McKinley
doubled, Tyler Brown
(two runs) drew a walk,
and Flohr was hit by a pitch to load the bases with Broncos. Jacen
Hudson then delivered a bases-clearing triple to knot the score at
ve apiece. The deciding run was scored by Memorial in the fth
when Dambrosio singled to left eld, scoring Fitzgerald.
On the hill, Derek Hudson lasted just one inning, giving up three
runs on three hits, striking out one and walking one. Matt McKinley
replaced Hudson and did not retire a Crusader while giving up two
runs on a pair of bases-loaded free passes. Jacen Hudson had his
second consecutive ne outing; throwing ve innings of three-hit,
one-run ball, fanning two and walking just one.

attempt to break up a Concord 6-4-3 double play.

AHS Baseball Skid Reaches Four Straight
Broncos Rally to Make Tennis Playoffs
by Marc Ayotte
In captivating fashion, the Alvirne boys Tennis team recorded
wins in its nal two regular season matches and, as a result, grabbed
the eighth and nal playoff spot available in the Division I standings.
The Broncos took to the road on May 19 and returned from the
Queen City with a trim 5-4 victory over Manchester Memorial. Two
days later, the Bronco bus headed to the coast where they dumped
Dover in a must-win scenario, 8-1, nishing the season at 7-7 and
locking up the nal berth for postseason play.
Against Memorial, the Broncos were spearheaded to a victory
in the team scoring thanks to four wins in singles competition.
However, the deal was sealed when the number 1-seeded doubles
tandem of OBrien and Stedile won; picking up the decisive fth
team point. In singles matches: number 1 Matt OBrien vs.
Kristopher Marineau 8-0 W; number 2 Raul Stedile vs. Andrew Tran
8-3 W; number 3 Jared Whalen vs. Duy Dinh 8-0 L; number 4 Colin
Calnan vs. Thomas Tran 8-0 L; number 5 Sam Bonney-Liles vs.
Faizon Khalio 8-5 W; number 6 Henry Williams vs. Derrick Morais
8-3 W. Doubles - number 1 OBrien/Stadile 8-4 over Marineau/
Andrew Tran; number 2 Bonney-Liles/Williams lost 2-8 to Thomas
Tran/Khalio and number 3 Andrew Wetmore/Brett Richardson fell to
Dinh/Morais by an 8-3 nal.
Over in Dover, Alvirne punched their ticket for the post season;
coasting past the Green Wave by an 8-1 nal. The Broncos
dominated throughout, taking ve of the six singles contests
while sweeping the doubles action. Following are the results in
the Bronco win that brought them to .500 for the year: Singles -
number 1 Matt OBrien vs. Bill Tong 8-0 W; number 2 Raul Stedile
vs. Reed Loakso 8-4 W; number 3 Jared Whalen vs. Charlie Ly 8-6
W; number 4 Colin Calnan vs. Carter Medeiros 8-3 L; number 5 Sam
Bonney-Liles vs. Jack Roemer 8-5 W; number 6 Henry Williams vs.
John Quinn 8-0 W; Doubles - number 1 OBrien/Stedile with an 8-3
win over Tong/Roemer, number 2 Bonney-Liles/Williams defeated
Loakso/Medeiros 8-3 while Richardson/Wetmore whitewashed their
Green Wave opponents by an 8-0 score.
Bullied By Bulldogs
And the Broncos reward for a strong nish that enabled them
to make the playoffs? A rst round date with the regular season
champion Bedford squad, which had an unblemished 14-0 mark.
The Bulldogs proved to be too talented for Alvirne as they ousted the
Broncos by an 8-0 margin. Number two seed Raul Stedile gave the
Broncos their best chance of avoiding the team shutout, pushing his
opponent Ian Horne deep into their match; ultimate falling however,
by an 8-6 score. The singles and doubles results for the remainder
of the Broncos were as follows: Singles - number 1 Matt OBrien
vs. Dan Soucy 8-1 L; number 3 Jared Whalen vs. Andrew Allen 8-1
L; number 4 Colin Calnan vs. Zach Anderson 8-0 L; number 5 Sam
Bonney-Liles vs. Zach Gould 8-0 L; number 6 Henry Williams vs.
Gurudeep Machupalli 8-2 L. Doubles- number 1 OBrien/Stedile vs.
Soucy/Allen 8-2 L; number 2 Whalen/Bonney-Liles vs. Horne/Gould
8-2 L; number 3 Wetmore/Richardson vs. Anderson/Tim Weeks 8-0

Thumbs up to Cougar Cubs Coaches Amy and
Jason Rossi for being just simply amazing with the
kids in your group. Our daughter has not stopped
talking about you both since last Saturday. I know
its only been 2 practices but youve already won
them all over. Thank you for sharing your time and
energy.
Thumbs up to Win, Win Situations. If we drive
10 miles over the speed limit you ride our car
bumper. Or. If we drive the speed limit you still
ride our car bumper. Therefore, by us driving the
speed limit makes us control freaks and can put
you over the edge of insanity. Seriously? Have a
nice day.
Thumbs up. Two thumbs up and
congratulations Specialist Johnson of Litcheld
for graduating from Basic and AIT Army Training.
Welcome home! Your Family and Friends are very
proud of you. We cannot wait to see you perform
in the 39th Army Band for many years.
Thumbs down to Obama ... Making a speech
and expressing his outrage over the poor treatment
of our veterans is a little too late. He should
have cleaned up the health care problems that
are plaguing the VA Healthcare System before
attempting to clean up the Healthcare in America.
Taking care of our veterans should be number
1 and the health care crises number 2. Making
a speech now on his disgust of the treatment of
veterans is a little too late in my book. A veteran
recently died of cancer because it took over a year
to get him treatment. Absolutely disgusting.
Thumbs down because Republicans cant
complain about anything. Republican leaders
lost our surplus. Never took responsibility for
their watch during the Bush administration or the
recent government shutdown. The Republicans
handed over a broken country to Obama with too
many hardships and losses. After electing Obama,
Republicans tried to crush him. Americans can
no longer pledge allegiance to a Republican ag.
Thank God Republicans can still pledge allegiance
to the Democratic ag. Our two party system does
work. Because when one goes bad, Americans
survive on the other. Republican leaders have
become social retards and are the denition of
insanity.
Thumbs-up for the new Weather Whys and
Climate Wise column in the HLN. Very nice
addition. We are very fortunate to
have such a learned scientist and
voice-of-reason in our community.
The key to me
is that he is a
(real) scientist
and not an
actor (Bill Nye
the Science
Guy) or a fear-
monger (Al
Gore, President
Obama, et al).
But I guess Im
just being too
reasonable ...
perhaps a sign
of my age?
Well-done Joe
and the HLN!
Thumbs
down to the
head coach at
Alvirne - harsh
criticism and
derogatory language on the eld is
no way to motivate your athletes.
Show a little respect and inspire
your team - you may be surprised
at the outcome.
Thumbs down to the
judgemental individual that has
a problem with this so called
monster mom. Did you ever think
maybe that mom could use help?
Quit hiding behind your keyboard
and offer to help. As a stay at
home mom myself I would love
nothing more than for someone
to help me out for a few minutes.
Do you have any idea how angry
4 tots get when you have to drag
them inside just so u can use the
restroom and cook them meals?
Dogs and sirens (I should know I
hear them all day long) make more
noise in this town Im sure than a
mom trying her best.
Thumbs up to LMS Spring
Concert and Carolyn Leite. What a
wonderful night of music and what
a truly amazing teacher!
Thumbs up to Sara Evans for
directing a great LMS chorus
performance! The students were
challenged and encouraged! So
glad to see them succeed and have
fun!
Thumbs up to the LMS band and chorus, the
students are very talented and the directors clearly
have a passion for music! I am more impressed
with every concert I attend. Thank you to Litcheld
Middle School for keeping music alive!
Thumbs up to Peter R. You did a great job in
college! Love, Mom, Dad, Becky and Megan.
Thumbs down to the individual who found
$120 in or near Cookies Chuck wagon on Sunday
of Memorial Day Weekend and didnt bother to
make an effort to try to return it. I am a veteran
and that was my familys grocery money for the
week. If you have any honor,
you will turn it into someone at
Cookies - no questions asked.
If you do, you can keep $20 for
yourself.
Thumbs up. Congratulations
Chelsea Blanchard for all your
efforts, energy and time in
clinicals and everything that
you to had to do to work hard
to achieve everything that
wanted to in the last four years
at Rivier College to achieve
your goal in becoming a
registered nurse. She graduated
with high GPA and is working
hard to achieve her rst job in
the medical eld as a full time
job. Congratulations, work
hard keep your head up and all
good things will happen. Love,
Mom in every possible way. I
am very proud of her.
Thumbs up to Pat Jewett
for being a true example of
service and dedication to her
community and fellow man -
you are truly an inspiration!
Thumbs down. You want
to blame school administrators
for the head injuries your
child sustained while playing
football? Anyone with an
ounce of common sense knows
that football is a dangerous
game, and always has been.
You knew it then. And you
know it now. Its unfortunate
that your risky and irresponsible
decisions have resulted in
injury to your child. But
you gambled, and you lost.
Take responsibility for your
actions, and dont try to pawn
them off on someone else
now that youre realizing the
consequences.

Led by outstanding teamwork and goalkeeping,
the Hudson U9 Maroon lacrosse team, coached
by Gabe Griego and Assistant Coaches Tapan
Mody and Ryan Tobin, won their game against
Peterborough last weekend. Contributions came
from up and down the team roster.
Hudson started out strong winning the rst
face off of the game. Offense dominated in
time of possession and Hudson never looked
back after scoring the rst goal. Hudson
conquered fantastic defense skills, shutting down
Peterboroughs attempt to mount a comeback.
Hudson demonstrated a nice display of
offensive team work in the second half through
effective passing to create scoring opportunities.
They fought hard to keep Peterborough away
from the net. It was not an easy task but Hudson
defenders were up for the challenge. The attacks
played exceptionally well together catching the
ball and passing to score.
U9 Maroon had great team energy during the
game and presence to each shift. Their quick play kept Peterborough off balance. They moved the ball around and showed
versatility in all positions. Goaltenders played well in the net shutting down shots and making tremendous saves. Resulting
from a game full of teamwork, Hudson handed Peterborough a tough loss, 13-3.

Named Your
Car? Then
Treat it Like a
Good Friend
with These Tips
(BPT) - When cousins Bo and Luke Duke from
the television series The Dukes of Hazzard named
their car The General Lee, they had the famous
General Robert E. Lee in mind. Why? The show
was set in the South, so perhaps it was to capture
the Southern vibe of the Duke lifestyle. Maybe
it symbolized rebellion against authority. Who
knows? There are as many reasons for naming a
car as there are drivers, and the Dukes were in
good company when they named theirs.
Thirty-ve (35) percent of Americans have
named their car in the past, proving that our cars
can have a deeper emotional hold on us than just
a way to get from point A to point B, according to
Hankook Tires quarterly Spring Gauge Index.
Gender inuences choices. The Gauge showed
that women are more likely to consider the car
they drive a female, and men are more likely to
consider their car male. On the other hand, ap-
proximately half of those surveyed stay gender-
neutral when it comes to cars, considering their
vehicle neither male nor female. Some of the
most popular names were Betsy, Bessie, and
Baby. On the other end were the more uncon-
ventional, exotic titles including The Accordion,
Petunia and NellyBelly.
Whether or not you name your car, treat it like
a friend and it will take better care of you. This
season, treating your car right includes:
Anticipating slick surfaces - Stopping on a wet
road can take up to four times the normal distance
on a dry road. During wet weather conditions,
drive slowly and keep in mind that stopping
distances will be longer. Tires like the Hankook
Ventus V12 evo2 have circumferential and Aqua
Jet lateral grooves that promote efcient water
evacuation from the center of the tires contact
patch to enhance hydroplaning resistance and wet
traction.
Learning to change a tire - Whether its from a
class, a friend, or dear ol dad, take a few pointers
on changing a tire. And always make sure you
pack a spare tire in your trunk. You never know
when youll nd yourself in an unfortunate situa-
tion on the road.
Rotating your tires - Tire rotation extends the life
of your tires and ensures optimal performance.
Many dont do this routinely, but when done
correctly, tire rotation promotes even wear and
improved tread life giving you the maximum life
out of your tires. A professional tire dealer can get
the job done for you in a quick visit.

Alvirne exploded for 12 runs in the rst
inning and bombarded opposing pitching with
14 hits for the game, as they outlasted visiting
Winnacunnet, 13-6 to improve to 6-9 on the
season.
The Lady Broncos erupted for the
unconventional 12-spot in the bottom of
the rst, hitting Warrior pitching like it was
batting practice. Alvirne featured ve players
who recorded a multi-hit game in out-hitting
Winnacunnet (14-10), led by Kaycee Carbone
and Kellie Kennedy, who slapped out three
apiece. The key hit came in the rst inning
assault when Carbone drilled a bases-clearing
triple to right center that blew the game open.
The Bronco shortstop nished the day going
3-for-5 with two runs scored, three RBIs and three
stolen bases. Kennedy picked up her three hits in
four at bats and scored a run to go along with two
runs batted in.
Picking up two hits each on the day were
Nicole Teague (2-4, 3 runs, RBI), Evelyn Susko
(2-4, run, RBI) and Christina Guessferd who went
two for four with a run scored. Rounding out the
Bronco hit parade was Sara Siteman who went
1-2, including a triple, two runs, and an RBI, and
Kera Kelly who was 1-for-2 with a run scored and
a ribbie.
Despite allowing ve runs on 10 hits,
Teague persevered in the Warrior of attrition;
displaying speed and precision in mowing-down
11 Winnacunnet batters and walking just one, in
picking up the win.
The Lady Broncos made it back to back wins
for the third time this season when they defeated
Manchester Memorial (2-15) in Hudson by a 7-3
score. With the win, they improved to 7-9 on the
year and are currently in 12th place in the D-I
standings, with the top sixteen teams moving on
to post season play.
A four-run rst inning gave starting pitcher
Nichole Teague all she would need to record
the win. Teague went the distance allowing just
one earned run on three hits while fanning seven
and walking three. The key hit in the decisive
rst was a two-RBI triple off the bat of Christina
Guessferd. In the top of the fourth, Kaycee
Carbone added to the Bronco cause with a single
that plated Gabby Burton (two runs) for a 5-1
advantage. A pair of insurance runs in the sixth
led to the four-run win.
Offensively, Alvirne followed up the previous
games 14-hit attack with another nine hits, led
by Carbone who had her second, three-hit effort
in as many games. In addition to Guessferd and
Carbone, other players who picked up hits in
the win were Sara Siteman, Evelyn Susko, Kellie
Kennedy, Burton and Ali Fuller.

Your BMW and MINI Service Alternative
(BPT) - It is summer and you cant wait to get out on the road to
head to the cabin, on vacation or just a nice carefree ride with the
windows down. But while you may be ready to go, is your car? These
quick vehicle inspection tips will help you make sure your vehicle is
ready for the open road.
Is it cool in here?
Make sure your veAhicle is ready to beat the heat by inspecting the
air-conditioning (AC) and engine cooling systems. This means remov-
ing dirt and debris from the ns of the AC condenser and radiator.
While youre near the radiator, check the coolant level. Look
in the owners manual for the right anti-freeze. A newer car might
require a completely different anti-freeze then what was used by that
cars brand a few years ago. Mixing incompatible anti-freezes can
instantly gum up the cooling system, says Tom Taylor, engineer and
vice president of auto parts retailer RockAuto.com.
Also check the cabin air lter that freshens the air owing into the
interior. This lter typically needs to be replaced annually, but it can
clog up much faster if the car is driven on dirt roads or parked under
trees. Owners are so relieved when they discover their AC problems
are solved by simply popping a new cabin air lter in place behind
the glove box, says Taylor.
Kick the tires
Wherever you plan to go this summer, your tires will take you
there; make sure theyre in great shape.
Start by checking the tire pressure. Most tires have a maximum
tire pressure printed on the side of the tire, but you want to inate
the tires only to the cold tire pressure printed on the decal inside
the drivers door jam. With todays low-prole tires, the difference
between the maximum and cold pressures might be 20 PSI or more.
Inate a cold tire to the maximum pressure printed on the tire and
it will be seriously over inated once it hits the hot pavement, says
RockAuto.coms Taylor.
Keep up that strict oil change schedule
If you want your engine to stay cool and last, its
essential that you change the oil at the appropri-
ate times and with the proper oil. With older cars,
owners might have used lighter weight oil in the
winter and heavier oil in the summer. Todays en-
gines often require the same weight oil year round.
Modern engines use oil as a hydraulic uid for
operating valves and doing other new things. Pour
10W-30 into a new engine that requires 0W-20
and there will likely be problems, says Taylor.
Use the weight of oil recommended in the owners
manual and dont forget to change the oil lter too.
Take care of your vehicle
and follow these tips and you
can be sure it will be there
with you for every new mile
marker and memory this
summer and beyond.
Running on Empty:
How Far Can You Really Go?
(BPT) - Whether intentional or purely circum-
stantial, its likely that most experienced drivers
have seen the low-fuel light illuminate their
vehicles dashboard at least once. For some
drivers, the fuel light is a source of anxiety as
they search for the closest gas station. For oth-
ers, it can be a bragging right, proudly boasting
how far they push their gas tanks to the limit.
Its no secret that an automobile can continue
to run after the fuel light comes on, but should
drivers rely on the extra mileage it allows?
For traveling musician Chris Jones, 30, of
Sioux Falls, S.D., seeing the fuel light on his
dashboard usually comes as no surprise. Jones,
a professional graphic designer during the
week, travels with his band across North and
South Dakota, Minnesota, Nebraska and Iowa
nearly every weekend of the year.
Im constantly driving across the Midwest
with my band, and I run low on gas more often
than I should admit, Jones says. It seems the
gas light always comes on when Ive just passed
the last gas station for miles. Considering the
areas where I travel, I get pretty nervous about
running out of gas on the side of a remote high-
way. Its not a good feeling, but I think weve all
been there.
Its likely most drivers would agree that the
fuel light often comes on at inopportune times.
Stuck in trafc on a freeway; running late for an
important appointment; or driving on a country
road with no towns or gas stations in sight, is
when drivers decide to push the fuel gauge past
the E signal.
Some popular car models can make it be-
tween 30 and 50 miles after the fuel light goes
on, according to a study by Pick Analysis. The
average Chevrolet Silverado will continue for
about 33 miles beyond empty. Smaller cars like
the Volkswagen Jetta average about 43 miles
and the Toyota Corolla tops the list at 47 miles.
Knowing how
far a vehicle can
drive with low
fuel may be reas-
suring, but the
effects of low-fuel
driving can be
damaging to the
car.
When youre
running low on
gas, its best not
to push your
luck, says Neil
Hoff, a rened
fuels specialist
with CHS, which
supplies more
than 1,400 Cenex
branded gas sta-
tions. Stopping to ll up before your gas gauge
hits E could save you stress, damage to your
car and time spent on the side of the road.
Hoff explains that by allowing a car to run on
empty, dirt and contaminants are more likely
to become suspended in the fuel and block the
fuel lter. When fuel is extremely low, the fuel
pump is no longer suspended in fuel and can
overheat. In some cases, low fuel can even af-
fect power steering and brakes.
To avoid an expensive trip to a mechanic,
Hoff advises taking a proactive approach to
fueling, advising drivers to always keep at
least a quarter tank of gas in the tank at all
times. Running out of gas in heavy trafc is
not only inconvenient but also dangerous, so
Hoff recommends fueling up before getting
on highways or major roads. Also, becoming
familiar with where gas stations are along a
driving route will also help prevent running out
of gas on long trips. Always keep a gas can in
the trunk in case of emergencies.
Keeping your car fueled is cheaper and
safer, in the long run, than driving on empty,
Hoff says. For more helpful automotive infor-
mation, gas-saving tips and to learn how to
nominate someone to win free Cenex gas, visit
www.tanksofthanks.com. I think we all know
someone who is always running on E, so why
not make it easier for them and nominate them
for a tank of free fuel? They, and their car, will
thank you.

On May 22, the Cougars Baseball seniors were honored, and Connor
Sahlin pitched a full game, striking out nine batters and walking just 3 to
help the Cougars in their 1-0 victory over Hopkinton.
Sahlin, a senior had not lost a start since the state championship game,
when he was a sophomore and, on his senior day, wanted to keep that
streak intact. Connor seemed to struggle at the beginning of the game.
In the rst inning, he walked Hopkintons rst batter and hit another
with a pitch. Obviously lacking some control, Connor felt that he was
over pitching. After another Hopkinton batter advanced a runner with a
sacrice bunt and a stolen base, Connor found himself with runners on
second and third base. Connor maintained his composure and pulled
it together. He struck out Alex Lajeunesse to end the inning, without
allowing Hopkinton to score.
Connor got into a groove and was picking the Hawks off one batter at a
time. Hopkinton did not get a hit until the 6th inning.
The Hawks held their own in the pitching department as well. The
Cougars scored their only run in the bottom of the second inning off a
elding error by the Hawks. This one run would be enough to give the
Cougars their tenth win of the season and give the seniors from Campbells
baseball team something else to celebrate.
Starting with a single, by Vinny Bucci, Kyle
Manning received instructions to execute a sacrice
bunt moving Bucci to second base. Tyler Butler hit
a ground ball toward the Hawks shortstop, Collin
Paraskeva , who misjudged the ball, which squirted
through his legs allowing Bucci to score from second
based; this turned out to be the only run of the game.
With this win, the Cougars nd themselves in the
hunt for a championship run.

Campbells Softball team celebrated
two seniors prior to their game against
the Hopkinton Hawks on May 21.
Two seniors are graduating this year,
Brittany McNulla and Emily Paquin,
but the Cougars will still have a lot of
depth to contend with next year.
This was proven by Amber
Gibbons, who had one hit and two
RBIs, and it could not have come at
a more perfect time. Her only hit
of the day, in the bottom of the
seventh inning, brought in not only
the tying run but the winning run
as Lauren King and Hannah Neild
scored, and Campbell walked off
with a 6-5 win over Hopkinton.
The Lady Cougars jumped out
to an early 4-0 lead going into
the top of the 6th inning, when
Hopkintons bats came to life. The
Hawks managed to score ve runs
in this inning.
Going into the seventh inning the
Lady Cougars found themselves down
by just one run and hope to stop the bleeding.
In the bottom of the seventh inning, the Cougars showed their pride
and true grit as Lauren King got on base on an error by the Hawks.
Next came Hannah Neild, who managed to get on base in her
previous two at bats. Neild hit a double, advancing King to third base.
The next two batters would hit high y balls to the ineld for outs
and it looked like the Cougars could be defeated by the Hawks.
However, Amber Gibbons had something to say about that, after the
Hawks chose to walk senior Brittany McNulla (2-for-3 and two RBIs).
A decision they would soon regret.
Gibbons drove in the two runs for the walk-off win.
Emily Paquin picked up the win in relief, entering the circle in the
sixth inning with the Cougars trailing 5-4 at the time.

It was a tough season for the Alvirne
girls Tennis team as far as wins and
losses go, nishing two up and 12
down. But as Coach Jennifer Ruigrok
revealed, even though they have not
won a lot of matches this season, (we
have) played tough and (have) shown
great improvement.
Indicative of that was the fact that
the team was involved in matches that
were much closer than some nal
scores revealed. Additionally, the Lady Broncos put on their
best exhibition coming down the stretch. On May 19, in their
second to last match of the season, Alvirne blanked visiting
Manchester Memorial by a 9-0 score. Unfortunately, they could
not keep the momentum owing two days later, losing the
season nale to Dover on senior
day by the score of 6-3.
According to Coach Ruigrok, the Lady Broncos played their
best match of the season against Memorial in posting the sweep.
The results of the singles and doubles matches were as follows:
number 1 seed Hannah Yi defeated Laun Phaun 8-6; number
2 Lauren Weber defeated Kendralee Corbett 8-3; number 3
Dominique Kaempf defeated Sneha Hoda 8-4; number 4
Erin Ruigrok defeated Olivia Tsang 8-0; number 5 Halie
Martineau defeated Joy Koytee 8-2; number 6 Hanna Bate
defeated Emira Kolesnichenko 8-0; Doubles - number
1 Lauren Weber and Dominique Kaempf defeated Laun
Phaun and Sneha Hoda 8-2; number 2 Hannah Yi and Erin
Ruigrok defeated Kendralee Corbett and Olivia Tsang 8-3;
and Halie Martineau and Hanna Bate combined to defeat
Joy Kotee and Emira Kolesnichenko 8-0 in the number
three-seeded doubles pairings.
Alvirne fell a little short of closing out the year with
back-to-back wins when they dropped a close 6-3 decision
to the Green Wave. Dover came in with a 5-8 mark and
was able to take four of the six singles matches on the way
to playing spoilers on the Lady Broncos senior day.
Despite the loss, Coach Ruigrok took away some
positives from the match: Senior Hanna Bate ended
her career with two wins, and senior Lauren Weber
played a tough last match in doubles and singles.
Included in Bates triumphs were an 8-5 decision over
Cami Clifford in the 6th-seeded singles match along
with a doubles win; pairing up with Halie Martineau
for an 8-3 decision over Clifford/Delaney Hoosley in
number 3-seed action. Weber was not as fortunate
with respect to picking up the win, but as Ruigrok
indicated, played well in losing her number 2-seeded
singles match, 3-8 to Ellie Crawford, as well as the
top-seeded doubles match with teammate Dominique
Kaempf vs. Dovers Lizzy Little and Gwen Muscato by
a 2-8 nal.
Other pairings in the season-ending match were:
singles - number 1-seeded Hanna Yi lost to Lizzy
Little 5-8; number 3 Dominique Kaempf lost to Gwen
Muscato 5-8; number 4 Erin Ruigrok defeated Christy
Naaman 8-2 and number 5 Halie Martineau lost to
Audrey Muscato 3-8. Elsewhere in doubles action,
number 2 Erin Ruigrok and Hannah Yi lost to Ellie
Clifford and Audrey Muscato 2-8.
