October is

National Breast Cancer

Awareness Month

by Kristen HoffmanA proposed 600,000 square foot building at the former

friary lot in south Hudson has not yet gotten off of the drawingboard.

During the August 14 planning board meeting, MikeDemperio of Fischer and Associates presented a proposal froman unnamed buyer at a preliminary conceptual view hearing.

Jim Petropoulos of the Nashua engineering rm Hayner and

Swanson joined Demperio.In their preliminary proposal, they mentioned the land in

Hudson would suit their needs, and only minor varianceswould need to change to make the construction a reality. Itwas estimated that the distribution center would employabout 200 people, and would be a 24 hour operation. Thetwo were met with generally favorable feedback at the initialmeeting, and it was assumed that they would go forward toreach their goal for a January groundbreaking. In August, theBoard of Selectmen reached out to land use boards asking forcooperation in scheduling.

But as of October 1, the planning board has not heard anyfollow up from either party, leaving the possibility of such aproject in limbo. “There have been no formal submissions atthis time,” John Cashell, Hudson’s Town Planner said. The planproved to be popular due to the meticulous planning prior tothe proposal. According to Cashall, Petropoulos estimatedthat the property would draw at least 50 to 75 trucks per daythrough the park; these trucks would travel exclusively onSagamore Industrial Park Roads and would not be allowed totravel on Lowell Road with the exception of a couple hundred

feet prior to the Sagamore Bridge. In the August meeting,Petropoulos said about 90 percent of all truck trafc would gostraight to the Everett Turnpike.

The building, designated as a distribution center would havebeen situated on the back 70 acres of the nearly 90 acre lot inthe north end of the industrial park. Petropoulos stated thatmost of the zoning issues would occur in the western cornerof the building, where the property would come within 200feet of a residential neighborhood, which is against the town’svoting laws. The loading bays would be situated on the southend of the structure, away from residential properties, which

would allow for a proper sound buffer. Other projects includedextending Friars Drive an additional 700 feet to allow forproper access to the proposed facility, and building a parkinglot to t 280 vehicles.

The huge swath of land has sat undeveloped since the late1970s when the Friary closed. In the subsequent years, theland has been the center of several failed development plans.At one point, the town considered buying the property but itwas voted down by a small margin.

Cashell saw the development as a boon for Hudson’seconomy, saying that such a company would attract other,high-end industrial companies to the area, revitalizing thesouthern industrial corridor in Hudson, “I’m absolutely certainthe amount of spin off will mean a higher economic future.”

The future of the project may be in jeopardy, as Demperiostated that the January groundbreaking was essential to theplanning of the project. Demperio also stated that the clientwas interested in purchasing another parcel of land earlier thisyear in another part of the state, but that plan fell through.

Cashall said there was no way of knowing whether or notthe party is still interested with going forward on plans, but

the current track does not look promising for an early wintergroundbreaking. Petropoulos was unable to return calls priorto the publication of this article.

e PSAT: Is it a Necessary Evil?

Say what you want about standardized testing but the

truth is that a majority o universities and colleges stillrequire them as part o the admissions process. It is truethat more and more colleges are questioning the efcacy o these tests but they are still something to consider i you are planning on going to college. It is better to takethe test and potentially not need it than to not prepareproperly and wish you had taken it.

Students can choose between the SAT or the ACT(American College Testing) as their test o choice. At Alvirne High School we see the SAT as the testmost students opt to take and submit as part o theiradmissions portolio. To properly prepare or the SATit is highly recommended that students take the PSAT(Preliminary SAT). is test is given only once a yearin October to any interested sophomore or junior.Part o being successul when taking the SAT is eeling comortable with the test and there is no better way to eel comortable than by practicing. Taking it as a sophomore will give you the opportunity to practice

what you have learned so ar in a sae environment; thescores are not reported to anyone outside o the school. As a junior you could be eligible or the National MeritScholarship Program, depending on your score. Either way, taking the PSAT will give you an insight to the testand help you know what to expect when you sit or theSAT.

I you are a sophomore o j unior at Alvirne wish totake the PSAT at Alvirne High School on Saturday,October 19, bring a check made out to Alvirne HighSchool in the amount o $30 to Ms. Piper in theCounseling Ofce no later than Wednesday, October16. is ee provides you with a seat or the exam,a study guide, and ollow-up serv ices through www.collegeboard.com. I you have any questions, pleasecontact the Counseling Ofce at 886-1260, ext. 2506and ask or your student’s counselor.

In My Opinion...

In My Opinion...In My Opinion... by Representative Annie Kuster

Taking the Most from Those with the Leastby Rep. Annie Kuster

I recently received a heart-breaking letterfrom a constituent who I will refer to asLaura. Laura is twenty-eight years old. Shehas a disability and is an orphan, with nofamily to fall back on. She is the motherof a toddler and also working toward twoundergraduate degrees while trying to nd

a job. She stretches modest federal foodassistance to help feed herself and her child,and she still has to visit her local food bankto get by.

Laura’s story is heart-wrenching, but farfrom rare. In New Hampshire and all across the country, there arepeople like Laura – single-mothers, homeless veterans, and proudseniors – who struggle every day to put food on their table, and whorely on nutrition assistance to help feed their families.

Yet last week, House Republicans passed a bill that would gutnutrition assistance and deliver a painful blow to families likeLaura’s. The Republican proposal slashes funding for our country’sbedrock food assistance program by nearly $40 billion over the nextten years, eviscerating a program that serves some of our state’s mostvulnerable.

Last year, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)helped feed some 47 million people, including more than 100,000Granite Staters. Despite providing average monthly benetsof roughly $130, it helped lift roughly 4.7 million Americans –including 2.1 million children – out of poverty in 2011.

These are our friends, neighbors, children, parents, and proud

veterans. They are hardworking Granite Staters who are strugglingto put food on the table and provide for their families. And for mostof them, this food assistance means the difference between goinghungry or barely making ends meet.

Still, a majority of my Republican colleagues have now voted for aproposal that would make reckless cuts to this nutrition program andput millions of Americans at risk of hunger and poverty.

According to the non-partisan Congressional Budget Ofce (CBO),the Republican plan would result in nearly 4 million Americans

losing their nutrition benets. Another 1.7 million Americans wouldsee their benets cut by more than half every month. And more than200,000 children would lose access to free school lunches.

Astonishingly, and most insidious of all, some members of Congress who support these drastic cuts have actually beneted frommillions of dollars in taxpayer-funded agricultural subsidies.

We absolutely need to reduce the decit and get back to balancedbudgets. But can’t we agree that this isn’t the right approach? Can’t

we agree that asking so much of our veterans, children, and seniorsbefore asking more of corporate agribusiness is just wrong? Can’twe agree that we should reduce the decit by making targeted,thoughtful cuts that are consistent with our priorities and our values?

In her letter, Laura said that we need to balance the budget, butnot at the expense of hungry families. I couldn’t agree more. Sincetaking ofce, I have supported legislation that could cut hundreds of billions of dollars in waste without undermining nutrition assistancefor children. The notion that we have to choose between cutting

spending and protecting hungry and low-income Americans is afallacy. We can and must do both.

For years, nutrition assistance for hungry families has enjoyedstrong, bipartisan support. Both parties have long-recognized howimportant our social safety net is to ensuring that all Americans havean opportunity to succeed and achieve the American dream.

As a member of the House Agriculture Committee, I’ve workedhard to block deep cuts to nutrition assistance while also reigning

in subsidies to corporate agriculture. If we put America’s familiesrst, I continue to believe that Republicans and Democrats can ndcommon ground, make smart cuts, and protect hungry families.That’s what Granite Staters like Laura are counting on, and that’s theapproach I will continue to ght for every day I am in Congress.

Congresswoman Annie Kuster, a member of the House Committeeon Agriculture, represents New Hampshire’s Second CongressionalDistrict in the U.S. House of Representatives.

treated to ice cream sundaes.The HHH is a contest, sponsored by the Knights of

Columbus and Rodgers Memorial Library. It is opento youth grades K through 8 and consists of a series of trivia questions about Hudson that you must visit variouslandmarks across Hudson to answer. The purpose isto have the youth and their families visit some prettycool places right here in Hudson that they may havenot checked out yet. For example, you may have beento Benson’s Park but when was the last time you tooka walk in the trails at Musquash Pond? Have you ever

been to the famous Hudson Speedway right here intown or the Hudson Fish and Game Club?

Special thank you to our guest speaker Laurie Jasper,library staff and the parents who took the time to bringthe kids all around Hudson to do the scavenger hunt.

Missed this fun event this year? Don’t worry as wewill be doing this again next year! For now, look in

the Hudson~Litchfield News in the coming weeks fornews on the upcoming Soccer Challenge to be held onSaturday, October 19.

The Knights of Columbus is a Catholic fraternalorganization that runs several youth activities in Hudsonthroughout the year, including the Hudson HistoricalHunt, Soccer Challenge, Free Throw Competition andother events.

Top Winterizing Tasks for Your Home

Indoor Air Quality: What You Can’t See Can Hurt You

(BPT) - If you shudder at the thought of shivering through another frigid winter,building industry experts say now is thetime to consider winterizing your home.Several simple and cost-effective measurescan yield both immediate and long-termbenets.

While instinct may prod you to increasethe heat during winter and keep yourhome toasty all day long, that’s not alwayscost-effective. Investing in a program-mable thermostat allows you to adjust thetemperature remotely, lowering the setting

when the house is empty, and save moneyin the process. Modern thermostats let youmonitor the indoor temperature of yourhome remotely via your smartphone oronline. By keeping the temperature lowwhen no one is home and programmingthe thermostat to increase the temperaturewhen everyone arrives home, you could notice a 10percent drop in your heating costs.

Fall is also an ideal time to ensure your furnaceis functioning optimally. Schedule an appointmentfor a professional to inspect and clean your furnaceonce a year. By doing so, you’ll help your furnacefunction more effectively and last longer.

If ice damming on the roof is an annual problem,consider taking measures to completely stop dams

from forming. Major damage can result from icedamming, so it’s never too early to start thinkingabout a long-term solution. Ice damming occurswhen warm, indoor air escaping through the roof melts snow on the shingles. The water then refreez-es as it runs off the roof, creating a barrier of ice atthe edge. Shovelling snow or chipping ice away canthreaten life, limb and roof, so it’s best to considermore permanent solutions.

While caulking or weather-stripping can help

address the gaps allowing the air to escape,the U.S. Department of Energy’s HomeEnergy Saver website says that proper airsealing, insulation and attic venting are thebest methods to stop ice damming fromoccurring. Spray foam insulation is onemodern material that both insulates andseals to stop ice damming. Installed byprofessionals, spray foam insulation, likethat available from Icynene, works well inall climates to completely seal the build-ing, lling every gap to stop air leakageand stop ice dams from forming.

As a long-term solution, spray foaminsulation helps maintain a comfortabletemperature year round while helpingto control monthly heating and coolingexpenses. Thanks to spray foam insulation’sair-sealing qualities, homeowners canreduce the size of their heating and cooling

equipment since less effort is required to heat orcool the home, according to InsulationSmart.com.

While air leakage can cause energy bills to sky-rocket and ice damming to occur, a well-insulatedhome and economical winterizing can help you getthrough the cold winter months. Learn the ve easysteps to choosing the right insulation by visitingicynene.com.

(BPT) - The Environmental Protection Agency has named indoor air qualityas one of the top ve environmental risks to public health citing research thatindoor air may be up to 100 times more polluted than the air outside. WithAmericans spending 90 percent of their time indoors, purifying indoor air isparamount to keeping families healthy - especially those with family memberssuffering from asthma and allergies.

“Poor indoor air quality has been linked to a host of health issues such asheadaches, dry eyes, nasal congestion, nausea, fatigue, heart disease andchronic respiratory disease,” says Chris Chase, product marketing manager atAprilaire. “For individuals that suffer from asthma or allergies, air particles suchas pollen, dust and dust mites are known triggers for asthma attacks and allergicreactions.”

More than 25 million Americans have been diagnosed with asthma and 50million suffer from allergies. Dust alone is comprised of dead insects, dust mites,mold spores, pollen, dander, skin flakes and other particulates that can be harm-ful to health. Controlling indoor air quality can provide relief for asthma and al-lergy sufferers and protect your family from getting sick. You can improve indoorair quality with two simple steps:

* Prevent irritants from entering the house. Takemeasures to make sure dust, dirt and other pollutants are

prevented from entering the house. Simple activities likeremoving shoes before entering the household, closingwindows during high pollen days and not allowing smok-ing indoors help keep dirt and other irritants from enteringthe household.

* Install a whole-home air purification system. Awhole-home air purication system is installed as partof the central heating and cooling system to captureand eliminate airborne contaminants. Whole-home airpurication systems remove up to 98 percent of airborne

contaminantsdown toone micronin size andare 40 timesmore ef-cient thana standardfurnace lter.Each time theair systemruns, thewhole-homeair purica-tion systemremoves dust,dust mites,pet dander,mold spores,pollen,

viruses, fungi, mold and other dangerous substances from the air throughout theentire home, rather than just the air in the immediate vicinity like a portable aircleaner.

Other important considerations include maintaining humidity levels as wellas proper ventilation; especially if your home is newer or has been recentlyupdated with tighter materials for more energy efciency.

Protecting Your Home and Family When the Power Goes Out - and Stays Out

(BPT) - Super storms like Sandy, majorfloods in Colorado and other naturaldisasters remind us of the devastatingimpact a long-term power outage canhave on a community. But it doesn’t takea major disaster to take down the power- and make life difcult - for days. Abasic winter storm with heavy snow and

ice can do the trick, too.“Extended power loss in the wake

of a storm or natural disaster can be asdamaging and threatening as the disasteritself,” cautions Ed Del Grande, a mastercontractor and nationally syndicatedhome improvement expert. “Food spoil-ing in the refrigerator or an uncomfort-able temperature in your home maybe the least of your worries. When thepower’s out, your home’s sump pumpwon’t work and could cause flooding.A home-based business could lose im-portant data and days of operations. Andfamily members with special needs maybe especially affected.

With hurricane season in full swingand winter rapidly approaching, it makessense to prepare your home and familyto face a potential power outage. The experts atKohler Generators offer some advice:

* Have a plan that covers how you will evacu-ate your home and neighborhood, if necessary, anestablished meeting place if you lose contact withloved ones, and a list of important phone numberssuch as doctors, family members, etc.

* Prepare an emergency kit using a backpackor a large plastic bucket with a lid. Stock it withthree days’ worth of nonperishable food andwater, a flashlight with extra batteries, a battery-powered or hand-cranked radio, battery-poweredclock, rst aid kit, cash, medications and a CD orUSB drive that contains digital copies of importantdocuments. Store your kit in a secure location thatyou can get to easily in case of emergency.

* If you’re ordered toevacuate, do so immediately.If you’re able to ride out thestorm in your home, turn off and/or unplug major appli-ances like water heaters,

stoves and air conditioningunits. Unplug electronics likeTVs and PCs, microwaves andstereos. This will help preventdamage to appliances andavoid overloading the systemwhen the power comes back

on. Leave just one light on so you’ll know whenthe power is restored.

* Never connect a portable generator directlyinto the electrical system of your home; electric-ity could flow backward into the power lines,endangering lives. Plug appliances directly into aportable generator using properly rated extensioncords. Make sure the portable generator is prop-erly vented to avoid the risk of carbon monoxidepoisoning. Never bring a portable generator intoyour home, garage or on a porch. Keep it outsidewith plenty of ventilation at all times.

* To keep your home up-and-running during apower outage, consider permanently installing astandby generator before trouble arrives. Whileportable generators can power one or two ap-pliances, a standby generator can supply power

for your whole house. A professionalinstaller can place a standby generatoroutside your home; it looks similar to acentral air conditioning unit and runs onnatural gas or propane, using existinggas lines. When the power goes out, thestandby generator automatically turnson to power critical and sophisticated

appliances and systems such as heatingand cooling, lights, refrigerators, sumppumps and home security systems.

Kohler, a leading manufacturer of automatic standby generators, adviseshomeowners considering a standbygenerator to:

* Look for a unit that offers clean,consistent power and can handleheavy loads. A generator that producessub-standard power could damagesophisticated electronics like HD TVs,stereos and computers. A generator thatstruggles to handle heavy loads willbe less efcient and may even fail in apinch.

* Choose a unit that can power upquickly, allowing you to keep your homefunctioning without interruption. A unit

that powers up slowly may only handle a fewcircuits at a time, forcing you to choose betweenwhich essential appliance or system you’ll powerup rst.

* Consider appearance, since a standby unitsits outside the home. Also, look for a unit thatis corrosion-resistant - an especially importantconsideration for homes near water.

Hudson resident Ben Marshall, 24, an Alvirne High Schoolgraduate and University of New Hampshire alumnus, organizedthe event. “I’ve competed at lumberjack shows in high school andcollege and I thought it would be a good idea to host somethingcloser to home. I can’t thank the Hudson Historical Society and allthe sponsors enough for helping me with this event. Everyone wasso pleased with how well things went and what a great location thisis,” said Ben.

The crowd was entertained and mesmerized by the fast paceof each event. Wielding a 7-pound axe is denitely meant forthose with strength and accuracy. Two of the most anticipatedevents were the Springboard and the Hot Saw. In the Springboard,contestants climb nine-foot high wood poles. Using just an axeand two springboards, they chop a notch in the pole to wedge onespringboard, then climb on that board and repeat to ascend thesecond board and chop the top off of the pole. Speed, balance,agility play a key role in this event.

Hot Saw is the loudest event, where chain saws are used to makethree cuts as quickly as possible in a race against the clock.

Dave Johns, from Marcellus, NY, both competed and was theannouncer throughout the day, engaging the crowd and explainingall the different events.

“This has been great for a rst year show. It’s a great venue, withgreat community support,” Dave said.

Members of the Alvirne High School Forestry Team and FFAvolunteered at the event. “I had a great time, I learned some greattechniques here,” said Kyle Trott, 16, an Alvirne Junior who placedrst in Tree Identication the day before at the Deereld Fair.

Spectator Robert Turmel, of Hudson, shared that he used to drive

the Alvirne teams to the various state fairs and competitions. “It’sa real competitor’s sport. It takes a lot of work to set all this up,I’m impressed with all the people here for the rst year,” Bob said.Adrien Larochelle, from Nashua, read about the event and decidedto attend. “I’m 85 years old; I used to be a lumberjack, originallyfrom Canada. I used a bucksaw, and we’d use horses to pull thelogs. These people are all working hard,” Adrien commented.

Special thanks were given to Atomic Tree Service of Hudson for

all their efforts. James Mills of Woodmills Lumber in Hudson andHarold Estey Lumber in Londonderry volunteered their time and cutall the logs to regulation size for the event.

At the end of the day, top competitors in each category wereawarded cash prizes. Planning has already begun for next year’sLumberjack event.

To the C hild in My Heart

O precious, tiny, sweet little one You will always be to me

So perfect, pure, and innocent Just as you were meant to be.

We dreamed of you and of your life And all that it would be.

We long to hold you, touch you now And listen to you giggle.I’ll always be your mother.He’ll always be your dad.

You’ll always be our child,e child that we had.

But now you’re gone … but yet you’re here. We’ll sense you everywhere.

You are our sorrow and our joy.ere’s love in every tear.

Just know our love goes deep and strong. We’ll forget you never -

e child we had, but never had, And yet will have forever.

We love and miss you deeply.

Love, Mom and Dad

Senator Ayotte Introduces Billto Strengthen Transportation

Infrastructure in New HampshireLegislation will help advance

proposed state infrastructure bank

submitted by the Office of U.S. Senator Kelly AyotteU.S. Senator Kelly Ayotte (R-NH) announced on

September 26 that she is introducing legislation that

will bolster efforts in New Hampshire to establish astate infrastructure bank that leverages state and federaltransportation dollars to attract private investments tohelp fund local transportation initiatives. Ayotte’s billaims to update a federal highway law, “MAP 21,”whichinadvertently prevents states from using federal resourcesto help capitalize state infrastructure banks.

“Federal rules shouldn’t prevent New Hampshireand other states from maximizing the effectiveness of federal transportation dollars,” said Senator Ayotte. “Thislegislation will give states the flexibility to use a portionof their federal highway money to help capitalize stateinfrastructure banks, which pools public and privateresources to nance local transportation priorities.”

Although a previous federal highway law approved

in 2005 allowed up to 10 percent of a state’s federalhighway allocation to be used for the creation of astate infrastructure bank, the authorization to do so

expired in 2009. Senator Ayotte’s bill would revive thisoption for scal years 2013 and 2014. Once the initialcapitalization is repaid, the bill would give states morecontrol over subsequent rounds of lending.

State Senator Sharon Carson (R-Londonderry) has ledstate legislative efforts to establish a state infrastructurebank. In September, she learned that current federal lawwouldn’t permit New Hampshire to use a portion of itsfederal highway aid to do so.

Senator Carson said: “I’d like to thank SenatorAyotte for her leadership on this issue. SenatorAyotte understands that municipalities back home arestruggling to fund needed local projects and that astate infrastructure bank is a useful tool to help themmaximize their dollars.”

Sports Broncos Net Two More Victories

by Sue LaRocheThe Lady Broncos continue to impress as they

won two games this past week to bring theirNHIAA Division 2 record to 8-0-1 on the season.

On Friday, September 27, Alvirne traveled toKingston to take on a much improved Sanbornsquad and battled to a 1-0 victory in overtime.

Alvirne opened the season with a 3-0 victory overthe Indians, but Sanborn has kicked it up a notch

and gave the Broncos all they could handle.Alvirne and Sanborn dueled to a 0-0 tie at theend of regulation. It was Danielle Ross whotook a pass from Sabrina Carter and blastedthe ball into the upper corner of the net forthe well- deserved 1-0 victory with less than3 minutes gone in the rst overtime period.Goalkeeper Sammi Giannelli made a coupleof outstanding saves among her 16 saves for

the game and for her fth shutout of the year.Tuesday, Alvirne continued their trek on the

road and played a scrappy Milford team coming

away with a 4-1 victory. Alvirne played sluggishin the rst half with the only score of the half coming on a penalty kick scored by Danielle Rossafter she was taken down in the box.

Alvirne came out much stronger in thesecond half with crisper passing and good balldistribution. Tana Tufts and Heather Barkleyplayed a great mideld game and SammiGiannelli again came up huge saving 18 of 19shots taken on her. Danielle Ross scored hersecond goal of the game at 35:17 off a pass from

Tori LaRoche. Less than one minute later Rossreturned the favor on a nice pass to LaRochewho scored the third goal of the game. The

nal goal of the game came at the 16:48 markwhen Heather Barkley made a lead pass to SarahMcAdam who curled a shot into the far side of thenet for her rst score of the season.

“It was another great team effort,” said CoachLance McAdam. The Lady Broncos will playat home on Monday October 7 to take on apowerful Hollis-Brookline team for a second time,and again on Friday October 11 against 6-1-1Goffstown.

Thumbs Up? Thumbs Down?

Thumbs Up? Thumbs Down?

“Thumbs up and HappyBirthday to Farmer Smith!”

“Thumbs down to theAlvirne football coach staff for your lack of respectshown to the marching bandon Fri. night. I’ve beenattending football gamesfor over a decade and havenever seen the football teamon the visitor sidelines.Show some class and support‘The Program,’ includingthe band. Band parents willcontinue to show up andsupport Alvirne on gamenights ... at least until thehalftime show is complete.”

“Thumbs up/thumbsdown. 2012 electiontrivia: States won byObamanation 19 Romney

29, Square miles of landwon by Comrade Obama580K Romney 2.427M,population of counties wonby Comrade Obama 127MRomney 145M, Murder rateof areas won by ComradeObama 31.2 Romney 2.1,Romney won over taxpayers Herr Obama wonover free loaders, Speakingof free loaders, What areyou 99%ers going to do if Hillary runs? She has asmuch money as Romneyin her off shore accounts.Democrats won’t care theyare hypocrites anyway.”

“Thumbs down to thewoman standing at the

library across from HillGarrison taking picturesof the buses leaving inthe afternoon. Hey ladynobody gave you permissionto take pictures of theirchildren. What do you hopeto accomplish by takingpictures of other people’schildren? You are harassingpeople that are trying to dotheir jobs, (teachers, and bus d rivers) with thisobsessive behavior.”

“Thumbs up to whomever removed the explicitgrafti on the metal barrier on Flying Rock Roadbordering Benson’s Park. It was gone before Ieven got a chance to call anyone in town aboutit. I don’t know who removed it but I’m proudthat our community cares about how we look andthings like that are taken care of quickly.”

“Thumbs down to the angry selectman Luzzy.You are acting like an angry fool and a bully!”

“Thumbs down at CHS. Ser iously, how longdoes it take to x or replace a water fountain atCampbell High School? 3 out of 4 on the mainfloor were broken all last year, we come in andthey are covered in plastic bags and now theyhave barrels under them. What does the leadcustodian do all day?”

“Thumbs down to the folks who play Bingo atthe Kiwanis club off Melendy Road. Once Bingois over don’t assume you have the right of way tobolt out of parking lot without ever looking. 2weeks in a row I have almost hit someone thatwas taking a left out of Bingo Hall since theynever look and are impatient. Probably need aPolice Ofcer there so you will stop and look bothways.”

“Thumbs up/thumbs down. Well, we nallyhave the answer to: Earthquakes, Tidal Waves,Typhoons, Wars and most all the other worldissues both natural and manmade. It’s theRepublican’s fault. Problems solved. As Hillaryonce said, ‘What difference does it make?’ Shecan even keep track of what Billy boy does inthe Oval ofce. After all, what difference does itmake? For all you people with single digit IQ thatvoted for the self-appointed emperor and want asocial sty country keep drinking the Kool aid.”

“Thumbs up to ‘Big Mike’ at a local weldingcompany for helping me out with the weldingof the rust areas on my ance’s truck. I reallyappreciate the time you have spent and sharingyour skills to help out a fellow person. Thankyou!”

“Thumbs up. Four thumbs up to ‘Big Mike’ forthe wonderful pig roast and country get togetherlast weekend out in Hollis. Between the monstertrucks, the mud bog, the four wheeler trails and allthe people just having a great time it was a hugesuccess and a ton of fun! The grill you built andyour cooking talents are awesome! Can’t wait fornext year!”

“Thumbs up to U.S. Marine, Daniel – rst of allthank you for your service. It was so nice talking

with you. Like I said before, concentrate on thegood stuff, not the bad and have a great day!”

“Thumbs up to the Alvirne Boys JV SoccerTeam. The Hanover game was predicted to bea tough match and to go into extra time despitebeing down a player shows excellent effort fromthe team. You may have lost in overtime, but itwas a well played game which you should beproud of.”

“Thumbs up to the Alvirne Boys JV SoccerCoach. Though, the boys were not thrilled withthe practice session before the Hanover game, youhad them ready and coached an impressive game.Keep up the good work and ignore the thumbsdown.”

“Thumbs up. A big thumbs up to the Litcheldseniors. The town of Litcheld should be proudto have such a great organization. The recent

barbecue was terric and the ventriloquist wasawesome. More seniors should go down and seewhat they are all about. They have wonderfulentertainment such as musicians, speakers,singers, trips, go to plays, magicians, historians,comedians and great food.”

“Thumbs down. I understand that Mission Pointonce was the home of a religious order, but whydo the lights on Lowell Road turn red when thereare no other cars around? Ghosts? But they don’tneed cars!”

“Thumbs down to the Hudson School Districtfor placing a bus stop near a convicted sexoffender’s house. Don’t you even check with thepolice?”

“Thumbs down to JV soccer parents whocriticize but have never playedsoccer and obviously do notunderstand the discipline of thegame. No wonder the teambickers with role models likeyou.”

“Thumbs down to the leftywho thinks only membersof the GOP are evil. Yourpresident has put us in so muchdanger by sticking his noseinto other countries without

backing by the UN, ignoring thedeaths in Benghazi, not workingout a budget since he was rst

elected, shoving Obamacare downour throats, causing peoples jobsto go from full time to part time,blaming everyone else but himself for the things that have gone wrongsince his election. I agree thereare some leadersin the GOP thatneed to get lostbut there are farmore Dems whoare to blame forour problemstoday.”

“Thumbsdown. Thumbsway down toPSNH. GougingNH residentsas their power

plants sit idle indisrepair as they make millionsin prot! Power plants thatare supposed to be generatingaffordable energy for our homesand businesses. We are beingcharged astronomically highrates that we cannot afford asthey continue their corrupt anddishonest practice of screwingthe hard working folks of NH!PSNH is nogood for NewHampshire!”

“Thumbs upto Ted Cruise.Thank Godsomebody isstanding upto the left-

wing nonsensecoming out of Washington.”

“Thumbsdown. I am instate of shock after reading allof the Thumbs up and ThumbsDown, especially the last. I cannotunderstand how anyone can thinkthat if we wait for Hilary to save

our country, she is not. I don’t know where youget your misinformation but she has lied severaltimes, and I really think that we can’t vote for her.”

“Thumbs down to the townof Hudson for not re-pavingGreeley Street. It has so manyholes and bumps. It’s the mosthorric street in Hudson. Whatare we paying town taxes for,

anyway?”

“Thumbs down to thegentleman who has his yardsale on 102 every week. It’sthe Hudson flea market now.He doesn’t even take his signsdown; he just leaves them upthere all week. Six yard sales inone year, on 102. Well guess what? They nallyhad an accident there last weekend. We told youit was going to happen, and it will continue tohappen. Come on Selectmen, wake up.”

“Thumbs down because Republicans continue

to terrorize America. A true patriot would ghtto keep American government from shuttingdown. What good is our right to bear arms if we let the Tea Party and the Coat Brothers attackAmerica from the inside? Vote Democrat acrossthe board, and government will never shut down.Hate, prot, power, and control for a few had tobe stopped, and Obama did it. Remember, noRepublicans, no terror. Hilary Clinton until 2024will keep the crazies away.”

“Thumbs down. Just remember thatRepublicans keep us from eating, and theDemocrats feed the nation. Republicans havebecome terrorists within our own government.And if Americans stop voting for Republicancandidates, it all stops. America has HilaryClinton until 2024, but what happens after herPresidency? Only American votes can resolvethe crazies that inltrated our government of the people. It’s not if you don’t work, you don’t

eat. It’s if you vote Republican, you starve todeath. Republicans are killing the country forprots and personal gain, only Obama has keptthem at a livable distance from our homes. LessRepublicans equals more everything for allAmericans.”

“Thumbs down. Don’t close down government,close down the Republicans. Republicansno longer reason for the people. They now

only reason for the wealthy. Who don’t needgovernment? The people need government, andRepublican leaders have become terrorists against

the people. America already took a vote andObama won. Our government gave the peoplehealthcare, and Republican terrorists, hired by theinsurance industry, seek to sabotage our gain. In2016, we get to stop the crazies forever. Just don’tvote Republican, and it all goes away. Americans

don’t have to live this way anymore.”

“Thumbs down because shutting downgovernment will not help these Republicanterrorists. What’s next, a bomb? I blame thevoter. If we don’t vote Republican, then theseRepublican terrorists are gone from the inside of our government. These Republican terrorists are

just doing the bidding of a few wealthy peoplefor self-gain. Americans can split the Democratic

Party in two. The conservative Democratic Party,and the more liberal Democratic party, and leavethese Republican terrorists and their insuranceindustry lobbyists out in the cold forever. Just stopvoting Republican ever again.”

“Thumbs down because rst it was the Bushadministration and all its hardship and death,

then our government was inltrated by the TeaParty and insurance lobbyists, now Republicanterrorists are shutting down government. Americamust stop the hold that some wealthy traitors haveordered Republicans of Congress before they areordered to use the bomb. The mother of all warsis headed by Republican terrorists, and the voteris responsible. No Republicans know fear, andit is our patriotic duty to get rid o f them forever.

Just don’t vote Republican ever again. Wake upAmerica, and stop the terror. You do not have to

live this way. Don’t wait for the explosion.”

“Thumbs down to the Republican leaderswho would shut down our government. Arewe not all patriots concerned for the Americanpeople and their futures? We are spitting in theeyes of heroes. People gave their lives to keepour country going, and the Republican congressis not thinking about them, or the Americanpeople. If this does not work, how far will theygo? What kind of radicals did we elect? Couldit get explosive? Americans must vote againstthis behavior, because these people are notrole models. My kids will not grow up likethem. Our morals need to be checked, and thisbehavior needs to be dealt with for the good of our country. We most certainly don’t want thesepeople running our country in the future. NoRepublicans, no problems.”

Alvirne Falls Short in Comeback Bid

by Mike Bourk The Broncos played a tough game at Hampton Beach but fell to

Winnacunnet 28-22.Despite missing several opportunities earlier in the game, the

Broncos had a chance to win this game. With four minutes left inthe game, on 4th down, Jack Mahoney hit George Notini for a 5 yardtouchdown pass. Jose Rodriguez ran in the two point conversionto cut the Warrior lead to six points. Andrew Stevens recovered theonside kick at the Winnacunnet 43 yard line with 3:50 to play. TheWarrior defense stopped Alvirne there forcing them to turn the ballover on downs.

Tyler Cabral carried the Bronco offense in the rst half running for140 yards. At halftime Winnacunnet changed up their defense and

shut down the Bronco running game in the second half. Scoring rsthalf rushing touchdowns for Alvirne were Jose Rodriguesz and Ethan

Rainville.A critical point in the game came in the rst half. Winnacunnet

had a rst and goal on the Bronco 8 yard line. Three consecutiveplays for negative yardage pushed the Warriors back to the 30yard line. On 4th down scrambling quarterback Ing Hao Veasnaconnected with Cullin Witt for a Warrior touchdown.

Alvirne defenders had a tough time containing Warrior seniorsSeth Edwards and Clint Felch. The two combined for 300 yardsrushing.

After the game Winnacunnet head coach Ron Auffant gave Alvirnea lot of credit, “They played a tough game, especially in the rst half.

Our team needs to improve each week, sure we won, but we wereno better this week than last. That’s something we have to work on.”

On the Bronco side head coach Mark Phillips echoed CoachAuffant sentiment, “We played good enough on offense, defense,and special teams to win that game. We beat them; we just didn’toutscore them.”

Alvirne drops to 1-3 on the season and but for a few plays theycould be 3-1. For the Broncos next game they will host BishopGuertin of Nashua. Earlier in September, Bishop Guertin also losta close game against Winnacunnet 23-22. Coach Phillips was theoffensive coordinator for Bishop Guertin for many years prior tobecoming head coach at Alvirne.

Campbell Cougars Lose to Somersworth Hill Toppers, 36-21by Philip Nichols

The Campbell Cougars entered the game 2-0,with two close victories, while the SomersworthHill Toppers came in with a 1-2 record.

This matchup would have been closer, exceptfor some mental mistakes made by the Cougarsthat were capitalized on by Somersworth. CoachGush explained that he had seen Somersworthprior to this game and said, “they are a betterfootball team than their record reflects.”

On its second series, Somersworth’s ElyjahDejoie (#4) began to show his ability to shake off tackles. Dejoie scored a touchdown with 5:02 leftin the rst quarter, on a 20 yard run to the outside.The extra point was wide right. Somersworth 6,Campbell 0.

Somersworth had the momentum in their favor.The Hill Toppers were having success running thefootball to the outside of Campbell’s defense most

of the rst half.With time

1st quarter,ChristianMcKenna (#14),of Campbellthrew anintersectionthat wascaught by MattMenz (#20) of Somersworth.

The scoreremained 6-0 atthe end of therst quarter.

The Cougarsweredeterminedand did not

just roll overand playdead. To start

the secondquarter, seniorquarterback, Christian McKenna (14) called hisown number and ran a quarterback sneak toscore Campbell’s rst touchdown of the day.

Later in the second quarter, Somersworth’squarterback could not handle the high shotgunsnap from his center, which ended up in the endzone. Senior Jake Bumbaca (#61) of Campbellrecovered the fumble in the end zone for atouchdown. Campbell’s point after was good.Somersworth 6, Campbell 14.

Both teams made adjustments at halftime.The Cougars were more successful defensivelyat stopping the outside running of both Dejoieand Menz. Despite their efforts, Somersworthwas able to tie the score 14-14 in the thirdquarter.

The Campbell Cougars were able to clawtheir way back to take a 21-14 lead going intothe 4th quarter.

Over the course of the rest of the game there

were opportunities thatwere missed. Therewere dropped passes,interceptions andpenalties that wouldeventually take its toll.

Somersworth scoredthree more touchdownsin the second half and goon to win with the nalscore of, 36-21.

After the game, CoachGush said, “we lost it[the game] as much asthey won it. They ran theball effectively.” “ Wehad a couple droppedpasses. Catch a coupleof those, and we are still

running.”Coach Gush insisted

that they would workon the fundamentals atpractice and be ready for their next game. In

addition, hesaid, “it isimportantto win withhumilityand losewith dignityand we’veaccomplishedboth this year.”
