Things that the average Americans take for

granted like a few Slim Jims or a fresh pair of
clean socks seem to mean the world to the many
young men and women of the armed services,
who are stationed in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Luckily, many of these simple requests are made
possible due to the support of the many volunteers
of the non-proft organization MooreMart.
The organization frst began in 2004 when Paul
Moore started sending a few care packages to his
brother Bryans unit in Afghanistan. Soon after
he began doing, this he received more and more
e-mails from his brothers unit asking for things
such as socks, phone cards, Girl Scout cookies,
toothpaste, and beef jerky. Ten packages a month
soon grew to 100, and Paul knew he would need
to fnd a sponsor to help fund the non-proft
organization. Soon, after teaming up with the
American Legion and other local veterans groups,
MooreMart started to make a signifcant impact
in the Middle East. The nice thing about it was
the whole state (New Hampshire) as a community
rallied behind us, and with their support we
have not only been able to meet the demand of
supplies, but we have been able to do special
projects also. For example, we have been able
to start schools in Iraq and Afghanistan as well as
health clinics and soccer programs which have
received over 8,000 soccer balls, Moore said.
He went on by saying, it speaks highly of our
soldiers who are over there, directly in harms way
and would want nothing more than to contact us
and explain that they would like to receive some
clothes to help some of the orphanages in an
attempt to personally make a change.
The main goal of MooreMart is to send over
the requested items within three to four days of
receiving the request at no cost to the soldiers.
Since the organization was founded they have
managed to send over 47,000 care packages
(just under 6 tons) including 8,200 cases, not
boxes, of Girl Scout cookies. The favorite
type, of course, being thin mint. When the
soldiers were introduced to the Iraqis they were
offered to smoke tobacco, however, most of the
soldiers are health conscious, and did not want
to partake in the ritual. In an attempt to not
be rude, the soldiers had asked MooreMart to
send them something that they could give to the
Iraqis instead. This is how the thought of sharing
something as simple
and American as
smores soon became
the idea. The Iraqis,
who had never seen
marshmallows before,
were skeptical at frst,
yet soon after tasting
the treats all of the
5,000 marshmallow/
smore kits that were
sent over had soon
disappeared. Paul
Moore explained that
the nice thing about
the smores is that it is
one of the few things
that the Iraqi parents
let their boys and girls
participate in together.
Along with the food,
books, and socks that
are included in the
care packages, letters
and cards were sent.
Letters that are written
from all sorts of different
New Hampshire residents ranging from the elderly
to concerned high school students. High school
students Kayleigh, Kyle, and Kristian Comer
started getting involved with MooreMart as an
attempt to receive credit from their high school
(Alvirne) as part of an outreach volunteer program.
Once they started packing, however, Pam Comer
(their mother) explained as we saw the pictures
of the men and woman that would be receiving
the supplies we really could start to understand
what these simple items mean to them, it really
makes us feel good inside. The siblings have
sacrifced many snow days and summer days over
the past four years by helping the organization
pack. When Kayleigh was asked why she keeps
coming back she replied by saying, they do
so much for us that a few hours on a Saturday
morning is nothing compared to them sitting for
months covered in sand, just being happy that
they have a new pair of clean socks. When I can
just put new socks on every hour of the day if I
wanted to. After receiving a fag that had been
fown over a base in
Iraq, Pam had to fght
back her tears so that
her mascara didnt run,
she then commented
on her recognition
by saying, I dont do
it to be recognized,
I do it so that I can
give something to the
soldiers, I did stumble
upon this event but once
I came I just wanted to
keep coming.
MooreMart who
usually ships these
care packages every 10
months will be sending
their next shipment on
November 10 which
will include stockings
for all of the soldiers
who will be spending
their Christmas holiday
overseas.

Matthew Gagnon stood in front of the Board
of Selectmen this week to donate his Eagle Scout
Project to the town of Hudson. This project was
a wildlife blind (a concealed area for viewing
uninhibited wildlife) at Benson Park located on
one of the trails just by Bass Pond. After Gagnon
explained how he had come up with the idea and
the process he went through to achieve his goal, the
board unanimously passed a position to accept his
donation.
Also on the agenda was the issue of a subgrant
from New Hampshires Brownfelds Revolving
Loan Fund (RFL) in the amount of $150,000. The
subgrant is for the purpose of remediating asbestos
contamination from the location of 9 Industrial
Drive, which is the site for a feld in memory of Zach
Tompkins. Len Lathrop and Michael Tompkins,
Zachs father, expressed their support and thanks for
the project before the selectmen passed a motion to
accept the subgrant.
Following this, representatives from Brownfelds
explained their plan to relocate the waste into a
separate secure area as an asbestos cell, over
which the parking lot would serve as a cap.
Work will be done during business hours and
comments from the public can be directed to Town
Administrator Steve Malizia.
Among one of the last topics of the night
concerned the LGC Municipal Volunteer of the
Year Award. At the request of Chairman Roger
Coutu, Bernie Manor was nominated for the award.
Manor has volunteered many hours to the Hudson
community especially for his work at Benson Park
and as a member of both the Water and Sewer Utility
Committees. After some brief discussion on the
matter, a motion was passed unanimously to give the
award to Manor.
Acts of
Kindness
are High Priority
for Selectmen
by Susan Miner
On Friday, August 10, at 7:30 p.m.
the thespians from the group Class
Act from Alvirne High School gave us
an imaginative, creative, humorous
presentation of the Shakespeare classic
A Midsummer Nights Dream at the
Hills Garrison Elementary School. As
you entered the auditorium you walked
through an archway decorated with ivy,
ferns and white hydrangeas. Once in
the auditorium you noticed the chairs
arranged in an untraditional manner,
aisles and rows set unexpectedly.
Chairs were adorned with tissue paper
butterfies and fowers. The front of the
stage was dressed with tall grasses and
potted plants, the walls of the auditorium
transformed with murals of horse drawn
carriages, fountains and trees painted
on paper and hung on the walls. Their
production was set in Central Park in
New York and had a very ethereal feel
As the play started the audience found
themselves in the middle of the action
as the actors came running through the
audience from the sides and back of the
auditorium to start the play. The play
had all the classic elements yet put a
more current spin on the interpretation
with modern day songs such as Dream
On and Magic as well as modern day
urban dress on some of the characters.
The spirit with which the performances
were delivered was astounding.
The show was co-directed by Jennifer
LaFrance, Lauren Denis, and Marianne
Hedges. Choreography was by Sarah
Nasiff. In June Jennifer LaFrance found
she had cancer and would be taking
chemotherapy treatments though the
summer. According to LaFrance, the
show had gone on because of the true
spirit of theater: community. Friends,
family and former students helped out
wherever needed to help keep this
production on track.

Friends of Alvirne Ice Hockey held
their 11th annual golf fundraiser at
Passaconaway Country Club on August
13. According to the organizations
treasurer Nancy Dutil, 58 golfers
representing a wide-based support of
Alvirne hockey, lined the fairways of the
popular Litchfeld links to help generate
funds for the Bronco pucks program.
Dutil, who has noticed an increase
in parental participation for the event
during the past few years, also thanked
the many sponsors; including Hudson
businesses CPTE (Center for Physical
Therapy & Exercise), Early Start Childrens
Center, the Hudson Kiwanis Club and
Hudson Trophy for their generous
donations. Special mention went out to
CCS Presentation Systems of Nashua for
entering a team in addition to sponsoring
a hole and donating raffe items.
With the standard best ball format
governing play on the course, it was
the foursome of Shawn Brown, Tyler
Brown, Tyler Livingston and Bill Cahill
that captured frst place, fring a low
gross of 60. For their efforts, they each
walked away with the commemorative
11th Annual First Place trophy as well
as an 18 hole pass for a future round
of golf at the host club. Other prizes
awarded went to Randy Hicks and Sue
LaRoche for longest drive in each of their
respective gender categories as well as
Connie Liles and Mike Finnerman for their
closest to the pin shots; Liles on the 90
yard par 3, second and Finnerman as a result of leaving himself an
11 foot 10 inch birdie putt on the 160 yard fourth hole.
Receiving the ultimate longest drive award was the father/son
twosome of Kent and Ken Fuller. As friends of Billy Levinski, whose
son Zach graduated from AHS in 2008 as well as laced it up for
the Broncos, the Fullers drove from upstate New York (as they do
annually) to participate and show their support for Alvirne hockey.
Alvirne Athletic Director Karen Bonney, in her 13th year of
heading-up Bronco athletics, was once again teeing the pill up
in support of the hockey program. Its a great fund raiser noted
Bonney, who has participated in all 11 hockey fundraiser golf
outings. Anything we can do to raise money and defer the cost
of playing is certainly worth the effort noted the AHS A.D. With
the frst day of tryouts for Alvirne sports taking place on the day
of the golf event, the turnout may have been slightly affected.
Nonetheless, Bonney thanked those who participated by saying we
appreciate people who come here to support the program.
Mike Pitre was in charge of the fundraiser and acted as the
events emcee; awarding the various prizes as well as conducting
a raffe for the numerous items donated by local business, a 50/50
raffe as well as a silent auction featuring several Boston sports
teams memorabilia. Prior to engaging in his auctioneer role,
Pitre thanked the people of Hudson as well as area businesses for
making the event possible. He added that we are hoping to have
another successful year for the hockey program; building on the
accomplishments of last years squad, who under head coach Brian
Gould, reached the D-III state championship game held at the
Verizon Wireless Arena in Manchester.

9-Volt Batteries
a Fire Hazard
submitted by Hudson Fire Department
Hudson Fire Chief Shawn Murray and the New Hampshire State
Fire Marshals Offce encourages you to properly locate your extra
batteries and learn how to store them properly.
In July, a fre broke out in a kitchen junk drawer which the
resident stated she had just cleaned and organized. The fre
produced smoke throughout the frst foor of the home. In the
drawer were spare keys, a cigarette lighter, paper clips, eyeglass
cleaner, and some batteries in a baggie along with everything
else that you fnd in a junk drawer. The local fre department
determined the cause of the fre to be from a 9-volt battery stored
in the same baggie with other batteries. The 9-volt battery rubbed
against another battery and ignited the fre. In the homeowners
words, We were fortunate not to have been away for the weekend.
A 9-volt battery is a fre hazard because the positive and negative
posts are on top, right next to one another. If the ends come in
contact with anything metal object, i.e., aluminum foil, steel wool,
paper clip, other batteries, etc., this will create the object to heat up
and ignite a fre.
To store, keep 9-volt batteries in original packaging, or keep ends
covered. For disposal, make sure that the positive and negative posts
are safely wrapped in electrical tape.
Remember to check your smoke alarms each month to ensure
your family has the early warning needed to get out safely if a fre
should occur in your home.

I am a 16-year-old
student who lives in
Windham. I am your
typical teenager. I play
sports, I work hard in
school, and I enjoy
hanging out with my friends. Like every normal
teenager, I was excited to see the new Batman
movie. I got a group of my friends and we all
went to go see it at midnight. We all enjoyed the
movie and made it home safely. Unfortunately at
another midnight showing in Aurora, Colorado,
the event was neither safe nor enjoyable.
The incident that occurred at the midnight
showing of Batman in Aurora, CO, is sickening
and terrifying. The scariest thing about the
whole incident is that the man behind this act
of violence acquired his weapons legally. That
factor in the story brings forth a serious issue for
us in New Hampshire, gun laws. Currently in
New Hampshire, our gun laws are laissez faire to
say the least. There is no permit required in New
Hampshire that is needed for a person to buy a
gun from a licensed dealer. On top of that, no
permit is required either for a
person walk around openly with
a gun on a holster as long as
it is visible. It is crazy to think
that anybody of the age 21 or
older can walk into a licensed
arms dealer and walk out with a
handgun without any real effort.
This incident should be an
eye opener for New Hampshire
to have stricter gun laws in
place. The laws already set in
New Hampshire easily enable
a person to commit an act just
sinister as the one in Colorado.
New Hampshire could get a good start with
these two steps (but not limited to these either):
1.) Require a gun license before a purchase of
any gun. Currently in New Hampshire permits
are only required in certain situations such
as buying a gun from a private party. Permits
are not required for handguns. 2.) Require a
psychological examination before a gun license
can be issued. The shooter in Colorado to any
gun store clerk would appear to be a normal
person. During the trial though it has come to
light that the man is insane (obviously considering
what he did) and may suffer from a list of different
psychological disorders, ones that should be
assessed by a psychologist not a store clerk. I
know New Hampshire tries to stay true to the
Live Free or Die motto, but our gun laws need
to be changed for all our safety. Since the horrifc
act I have asked myself, What if it had happened
at the local theater I was at?

Paul Hamilton left
our village about 10
days ago; yes, he passed
away. Paul was one of
those people that if you
knew him, there is now
a big hole. He was not
a politician like the ones
you saw on television.
He did not make
decisions that affected
you negatively, but
he affected everyone
whose path he crossed.
You might have been
touched by Paul without
even knowing it.
Remember the clown
who greeted everyone
at CHIPs Fright Night
with a smile? Or the
man who handed
out food at the Hudson Police
Department blood drives? As Paul
Jr. commented in his dads eulogy,
When we moved to Hudson in
1967, I could never have imagined
that my father would become the
fxture in this community that we
recognize today.
Paul was a member of the
Recreation Committee, where he
and his sister-in-law, Barbara, built
the program into one
that provides so much
for Hudsons young
residents. Paul impacted
many as he taught both
frearm and Bow Hunter
safety for NH Fish and
Game, as well as his
work with the Merrimack
Valley Bee School.
In the early 2000s,
Paul showed me how
to cook sausages for
the Historical Society
at Old Home Days. He
made sure they were
the best sausage on the
fairgrounds. He was a
simple leader who taught
you by doing. So if you
go to Old Home Days
this week, come over
and enjoy a sausage and remember
Paul; I will.
He was one of the good guys who
made our village better and will be
missed.

Friends of Sue Mousseau Fundraiser
Our friend Sue Mousseau was diagnosed with Subcutaneous
Panniculitis T-cell Lymphoma in September of 2011. She is
currently undergoing an aggressive regimen of chemotherapy and
soon she will need a stem-cell transplant. As one can imagine, this
is an incredibly costly medical treatment to ensure that recovery is
100 percent. Additionally, shell be spending almost a month at the
Dana Farber Cancer Center and then a year confned to her home.
All of this comes with a big price tag.
As part of our on-going fundraising eforts, we will be selling
ra e tickets for gift baskets at Old Home Days this weekend. We
have over 10 unique and fun-flled gift baskets including one with
over $100 of lottery scratch tickets. All of the proceeds will be
donated to the Mousseau family to help with this costly fnancial
burden.
Please look for our booth at Old Home Days and buy a ra e
ticket or two for Sue.
Tank you for your generosity to this cause.

Facts and Opinion Freely Expressed
Tank you, Mr. Battis, for your letter in
the August 6 edition of the Hudson~Litchfeld
News. Te headline, however, exposes an
all too typical descent of too many from a
rational and reasoned discussion into name-
calling and slander, apparently a trademark
of the liberal/progressive/socialist/fascist/
communist party line. You are entitled to
your opinions. I had hoped that you believed
I was entitled to mine. Obamacare is, in
my opinion and that of the vast majority of
Americans, the most invasive and destructive
governmental policy ever conceived in the
United States.
My opinion of the Daily Mail article
was that it was highly critical of the NHS
in the United Kingdom. Similar stories of
government intrusion and inef ciency appear
almost daily in the English papers - and in
the Canadian papers for that matter. Indeed
here is an article from Te Telegraph about the
Death Panels (http://www telegraph.co.uk/
heatth/healthnews/6127514/Sentenced-to-
death-on-the-NHS.html).
In a letter to Te Daily Telegraph, a group
of experts who care for the terminally ill claim
that some patients are being wrongly judged as close to death.
While the article is about pain medicine masking improvement, I
recall the answer to Jane Strum regarding her 100 year-old mothers
care where President Obama said society has to make decisions on
end-of-life care and perhaps all that was needed was to take a pill
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-dQfb8Wqvo). Te English
panel has the peaceful acronym of NICE - National Institute for
Health and Clinical Excellence. Te program is to assure that fnal
hours are peaceful. I recall a similar program being instituted by
ancient Sparta. Hemlock or being locked outside of the city gates
at night to fend of lions and wolves were the healthcare options of
the elderly and ill.
I will repeat a link previously provided saying your information
about heath care ranking was misleading, at best - http://
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WH0~27s ranking of health care systems:
Te World Health Organization (WHO) ranked the health
systems of its 190 member states in its World Health Report 2000.
Te WHO abandoned ranking processes due to academic criticism
regarding the methodology and validity of ranking (emphasis
added).
Mr. Battis asked for my suggestions on healthcare and I am not
fearful of his challenge. I refer the reader to an article from 2011
in Te Weekly Standard: In simple terms, there are two ways to
deal with high health costs and the problem of the uninsured. You
can focus on lowering costs, and if you succeed, not only will you
have achieved your immediate ends, but more people will then be
able to aford coverage and fewer will remain uninsured. Or you
can focus instead on covering more people, which, even if you
succeed, will do nothing to lower costs and will likely raise them.
(http://www weeklystandard com/blogs/what-mitt-romney-could-
learn-paul-ryan-health-care 594573.html). Te better approach is
focusing on lowering costs. Obamacare increases medical costs by
placing a tax on wheelchairs and other medical devices (http://www
medicaldevices.org/issues/Health-Care-Reform%2C-Device-Tax)
and reduces Medicare payments to providers (http-//www.ama-
assn.org/amednews/2011/07/18/gv110718.htm).
Tere are opposing opinions on the manner of addressing the
issue and that is good. I do not believe in a strict adherence to
a frm ideology exposed by the current government, rather open
debate, sans name calling, and in doing the hard work within a
Constitutional framework to assure good law is created, not Death
Panels as apparently exist in the United Kingdom.

continued from page 4
the Committee on Environment and Agriculture.
I was fortunate to have been asked to serve on
a second committee for three of those years, an
opportunity few Representatives get. As a result
I also was a member of Election Law one year,
and Legislative Administration for two years. I
am proud of my attendance. I never missed a
session day in the frst four years. Te last term
I missed four session days, all because I was in
Washington, DC, lobbying for NH agriculture.
I only missed one committee day in six years. I
feel strongly that you are not represented if your
Representatives are not there for both session and
committee meetings. I am also proud of some of
the work our committee did to help Agriculture
in NH. For two years I also served on the
Hillsborough County Executive Committee. I
am active in Te Council of State Governments
and State Agriculture and Rural Leaders, a group
of Agriculture Chairs from House and Senate
from all 50 states.
My priorities continue to be low taxes through
prudent spending, our seniors, our veterans, law
enforcement, your constitutional rights, parental
rights, an environment that attracts and retains
business in NH, and local control of education.
I also support preservation of open space - and
what better way to keep space open then by
preserving the family farm? Although I am from
Hudson, I proudly represent the good folks of
Pelham and I take that responsibility seriously.
I ask for your support in the Primary on
Tuesday, September 11, by voting for Bob
Haefner for State Representative on the
Republican Ballot.

Litter Crowding Hudson
and Litchfeld Roads
We moved into Hudson in 2005 and were
immediately welcome into our neighborhood.
Everyone is friendly and helpful, a perfect place
to live and enjoy. Recently, I started a walking in
my neighborhood. I dont walk the same route
or distance daily. I decide which way to walk by
the time I have available. My neighborhood is
from the Canal Street Bridge to Wilson Farm on
3A, Route 102 to Alvirne School, up to Whip-
por-will golf course and work my way back to
my home.
On my walks, I have noticed more and more
that there is a litter problem in any area that
is lined with trees and shrubs. I have found
used hypodermic needles, condoms, empty and
partially flled alcohol bottles, MacDonald bags,
Dunkin Donut bags and empty cofee cups,
cigarette packs, butts, water and soda bottles,
soda cans, clothing, etc. Now that I am walking
more, Im seeing more and more litter.
What I would like to suggest to those who
walk in Hudson is bring a plastic grocery bag
and a pair of gloves. All you need to do is when
you walk through an area is pick up a grocery
bag full of trash. Or adopt an area and walk with
a neighbor and bring your bags. In no time,
the area will be clean. We manage to fll a 30
gallon bag every week or so. Tis is in an area
less than a mile. Occasionally, a person will stop
and thank us. Or another walker will contribute
some trash they picked up walking towards us.
Littering is against the law. NH law states:
Misdemeanor. Imprisonment not more than
one year and fne not greater than $2,000; or, at
courts discretion, conviction may require time
spent cleaning up at area littering occurred.
But the law should not be the only reason we
dont litter. We should take pride in our town.
We should be concerned about the safety of our
residents and the environment.
Children play outside, walk to friends homes,
walk to school, or ride bicycles. A young child
could pick up a needle and pretend to be a
doctor. A child could drink the partially flled
alcohol bottles. Lets try to keep them safe from
harm.
Drivers on the roads please practice the carry
in and carry out rule for trash. If you put it in
your car, take it out at home and put it in the
trash. Recycle your cans and bottles. Or turn
them in for cash. Te closest center I know is
in Lowell, MA, Lowell Bottle & Can on Tanner
Street ... A little girl I know just turned in
bottles and cans worth nearly $20. She brought
in three 30-gallon bags of cans and bottles to a
center and is saving her money for a bicycle.
Smokers dont throw your butts out the
window, you could start a fre and someone
could die or lose a home. Why not quit,
smoking is dangerous to your health and your
wallet. You could enjoy a movie or a dinner once
a week with the money you would save.
Let us work together to keep this community
beautiful and safe for all of us.
A Concerned Neighbor, Hudson
Howling and Growling
at Benson Park
It was about two years ago now, when the
various community gardens were started at
Benson Park. I had an interest in doing a small
garden project on my own, spoke to two Benson
Park Committee people about it and was told to
choose a location and proceed. I even confrmed
my discussions by e-mail but never got a
response, so I went ahead with my plans.
Ten when I started the small garden starter
project, including leaving my name and contact
info on a sign board, I was contacted soon
thereafter by a committee member who acted as
if I had destroyed a major attraction in the park,
issuing a stern warning to remove my starter
garden immediately or it would be removed for
me and disposed of. No explanation was given
other than something else was going in that
same location; but never telling me what it was
going to be. In disgust with the Benson Park
Committees in general, I removed my small
start-up garden to never return.
Now it seems as if the self-appointed Supreme
Power to be there is running wild, like the
animals once did that were on display there. Its
the nature of things, you know, its power gone
wild. My minor confict with the Benson Park
organization seems now to have been one of the
frst small waves, in front of a much larger wave
of confict that many Benson Park Committees
members are now howling and growling about,
as well as the BOS. And Im not surprised at all.

Jerry Gutekunst, Hudson
Tired of the Hypocrisy
Te most recent Hudson~Litchfeld News
included a letter from Carol Stamm that
listed some of President Obamas positive
accomplishments and specifcally spoke to the
Afordable Care Act and how it personally
afected her immediate family. I know many
people who have been impacted by the ACA
in positive ways. I also know several families
that will sufer negative repercussions come full
implementation of the Afordable Care Act; it
will not be a positive change for everyone. I
suspect many Hudson~Litchfeld News readers can
say the same thing.
I am writing because of something in the
last paragraph of Carol Stamms letter. I ofer a
direct quote: I fnd it quite telling that when
the House of Representatives voted to repeal the
Afordable Care Act, they did not repeal their
own benefts. While this is a factually true
statement, it completely disregards two facts
regarding the passage of the Afordable Care Act
that are absolutely critical to this discussion.
First, the AHA was passed by Congress
without support from a single Republican
member. No Republican voted in favor
it. It was passed solely by the Democratic
members of Congress. Second, the Senators
and Representatives who voted for and passed
the AHA exempted themselves from having
to participate in the program. Stated more
directly; the Democratic members of Congress
passed the Afordable Care Act and exempted
themselves from having to participate. And yet,
Carol Stamm attempts to paint a picture where
only the Republicans are the bad guys. Tis
is a perfect example of the hypocrisy that is
being displayed by both parties throughout this
election cycle. It has become exhausting already
and we havent even gotten to the conventions
yet!
American voters are being treated to an
endless barrage of partial or incomplete truths
at best, and blatant deceit or lies at worst from
both parties. Te only way any of us can make
an informed decision, and not just vote on
emotions, is to view any political message with
a high degree of distrust and gather information
from more than a single news source. When you
fnd glaring diferences
between two sources,
such as Fox News and
MSNBC, you can be
certain the truth is
somewhere between
the two. It is up to
all of us to determine
for ourselves what the
honest and straight
truth is.

Brendan Walker Yerry,
28, of Hudson died
unexpectedly in a boating

Former State Representative Leon C.
Calawa, Jr., died on August 12, 2012,
after an extended illness. His friends
called him Jimmy.
He was born in Nashua on February
16, 1929, the son of Leon C. Calawa, Sr. and
Dorothy D. Dugas. He was raised in Litchfeld
on the Old Edward Bixby Farm, now the
Wilson Farm. Rep. Calawa was educated in
Nashua at Saint Patricks School and at Nashua
High School. He was a veteran of the Navy.
Rep. Calawa was a well-known real estate
developer in Litchfeld and Londonderry,
having extensive property holdings in those
towns. He was a founding partner of the
Passaconaway Country Club in Litchfeld. He
was a member of the former Mens Club of
Litchfeld.
For many years, Rep. Calawa served on
the Litchfeld School Board. He was
the chairman of the committee for the
relocation and refurbishment of the
Old Town Hall in Litchfeld, now the
Litchfeld Historical Society Building.
For many years, Rep. Calawa served in the
capacity of Fire Chief for the town of Litchfeld.
He was an instrumental force behind the
construction of the Litchfeld Fire Station
in 1957. He generously donated his time,
building materials and paid his construction
crew to help erect the building.
Rep. Calawa served for many terms
as Litchfelds representative to the New
Hampshire State Legislature. For 10 years he
served as the vice chair of the Public Works
Commission for the State. He also played
a leadership role in rehabilitating both state
and county buildings, in particular the Walker
Building in Concord. He was recognized
by the New Hampshire Chapter of the
American Institute of Architects and by the
New Hampshire Preservation Alliance for his
role in saving many historic New Hampshire
buildings.
Rep. Calawa is survived by his wife,
Rosalyn (Wilson) Calawa; his son, Steven P.
Calawa, D.D.S. and his two daughters, Mrs.
Paul (JoEllen) Bellerive and Mrs. Richard (Jill)
Charbonneau, all of Litchfeld. He is also
survived by four grandchildren, Mrs. Richard
(Marla Bellerive) Matthews of Concord,
Hilari Bellerive of Concord, Joy Charbonneau
of Litchfeld, and Chad Charbonneau of
Litchfeld. He is also survived by a brother-
in-law, Frederick H. Hebert of Nashua and his
sons, Frederick R. Hebert of Darien, CT, and
Peter W. Hebert of Merrimack.
A private interment in the Hillcrest
Cemetery, Litchfeld will take place.
The Reverend Mr. Tom Woodward of
the Litchfeld Presbyterian Church will
offciate.
Donations in memory of Rep. Calawa,
may be made to the Litchfeld Historical
Society, 168 Charles Bancroft Highway,
Litchfeld, NH 03052, or the Alzheimers
Foundation of America, 322 Eight
Avenue, 7th Fl, New York, NY 1001.
The Davis Funeral Home, One Lock
Street, Nashua has been placed in charge
of arrangements.

Craft Beer Chronicles Craft Beer Chronicles
Craft Beer Chronicles Craft Beer Chronicles
for 2 col.
for 3 col.
for 4 col.
First off, a heartfelt apology for the lengthy time between
publishing installments of the Craft Beer Chronicles and
many thanks to all of you whove asked the question,
Whens the next article coming out? No excuse offered
other than a busy summer between my paying job, my
other multiple non-paying jobs and summer vacations. But
Ive been regularly keeping notes and taking pictures over
the last several weeks for my next Craft Beer Chronicles
column. Now that the drawer is
full and summer is winding down it
seemed like a great time to share some
thoughts.
First off, a quick question for all
readers. How many of you each
year walk into Wal-Mart, Target,
Kmart or any large retailer right
around the middle of October,
notice the store fully decorated for
Christmas and cant believe how
it seems earlier and earlier that
retailers stuff the Christmas season
down our throats? Well, craft brew
fans deal with the
same thing. It
seems each year;
craft brewers push
their seasonal beers
out earlier than
the previous year.
It hit me over the
head just this week
when I walked into
a grocery store
to pick up a six-
pack on a hot and muggy day. What do
I see but the local distributor stocking
the Sam Adams Oktoberfest. Seriously?
We cant wait until Labor Day anymore
for this? I remember about a year ago
speaking with Peter Egelston, the Owner
of Smuttynose Brewing Company, on this
very topic. Prompted by seeing Harpoon
Summer on the shelves in early April
(think of that, two full months before the
start of summer) I asked as to whether or
not I was imagining it or are craft brewers
pushing their seasonals out sooner each
year. Mr.
Egelston
confrmed
that
what I was seeing was true, that none of the craft brewers
probably liked it very much, however, as soon as one
brewer pulled the trigger on a release of a seasonal, all felt
they needed to follow suit. I suppose it shouldnt bother
me, maybe its old age crankiness kicking
in, however, the result is that at the end
of summer when craft brew fans still have
a thirst for a light and drinkable summer
brew, more and more well fnd those
beers crowded out of precious shelf space
by the prematurely distributed darker and
heavier beers of autumn.
Beer Blend at Tuscan Kitchen
Who says two wrongs cant make a
right? Im not a fan of either Blue Moon
Belgian White nor of Guinness. As written
before here, Blue Moon is a craft beer
knock off actually brewed by Coors. On
the other hand, Ive never been a Guinness
fan either with my drinking of it limited to
a pint or two on St. Patricks Day, typically
out of obligation, sort of like eating
fruit cake at Christmas. However on a
recent visit to Tuscan Kitchen for dinner
I was introduced to a beer blend which I
actually enjoyed. Tuscan was packed that
evening, no surprise considering how high
quality the restaurant is in all aspects, so
instead I ate dinner at the bar. Craig was
manning the bar that evening as he seems
to be almost every time I stop in. I wanted to kick off with
a beer but wasnt overly knocked out by anything I saw on
tap. Thats when Craig offered up what he called a Black
and Blue, a Blue Moon/Guinness blend not unlike a Black
and Tan. I was skeptical at frst not being sure how the zesty
Belgian would mix up with the prototype stout, however, the
resulting blend was great. Credit to Craig for giving some
thought as to how he can get creative with the brews he
had on tap and although nether Blue Moon nor Guinness
are craft brews, the enjoyable experience certainly was
worth writing about. And it goes without saying that Tuscan
Kitchen is always an amazing dining experience.
Sam Adams Porch Rocker
Im no fan of Sams Summer Ale. By far the most popular,
in terms of sales, craft brew summer seasonal out there, I just
dont like the stuff. Im not sure I can put my fnger on why
thats the case, I do fnd it overly carbonated and I dont like
the taste that results from the mix of the ales hops and the
lemon added in. Well interestingly enough on a vacation
trip to Jackson, NH, I stopped into the Glen Beverage
Company, a beer and wine retailer which boasts of over 200
microbrews for sale. Conveniently located across the street
from Story Land on Route 16, The Glen Beverage Company
is frequented by dads in the know as they return to their
hotels after suffering a full day of escorting the kids around
to the Bamboo Shoot, Cinderellas Castle, the Old Lady in
the Shoe, etc., at Story Land, typically in searing 100 degree
heat. While browsing the shelves of Glen Beverage I came
across a Sam Adams brew I had never heard of before called
Porch Rocker. The premise was simple, it was a Belgian
Lager infused with lemons or a summer alternative from
Sam Adams for those like me not thrilled with their Summer
Ale. In summary, I thought Porch Rocker was terrifc. Very
drinkable and light with an ABV of a modest 4.5%, the lager
style and its absence of hoppiness was the perfect set up
for the summer infusion of lemon. Pouring a light gold in
color, I found the Porch Rocker to be everything I think Sam
Summer is not; crisp, refreshing, a perfect summer beer.
The closest thing I can compare Porch Rocker to is Sierra
Nevadas Summerfest which is a terrifc summer lager but
I actually believe Porch
Rocker is a bit better.
Theres no arguing with
fnancial success so I fully
expect Sams Summer Ale
will remain their fagship
summer seasonal but
heres hoping Sam Adams
considers brining back
Porch Rocker again next
summer for a second try.
If youre looking for a
great summer lager and
see it on the shelves, pick
up a six-pack and Im sure
youll enjoy it.
Thanks for reading.
Well be back with a new
installment of the Craft
Beer Chronicles in your
local Area News Group
editions soon. And
remember that comments
and suggestions are
always welcome at
peter@areanewsgroup.
com. Finally, please
be sure to enjoy all
these terrifc craft brews
responsibly.

Bobs Discount Furniture, through its Bobs
Outreach program, today announced that it will
award $45,000 in cultural grants to deserving
schools across the Northeast and mid-Atlantic
states through its seventh annual Celebrate the
Arts contest designed to support and maintain
dance, music and the arts in schools. Bobs
Outreach is accepting contest entries from August
13 through September 10, and will select nine
schools to win $5,000 grants to support cultural
arts programs during the 2012-2013 school year.
Each year, Bobs Outreach receives thousands
of submissions and randomly selects one K-12
school in each of the nine states (Connecticut,
Maine, Massachusetts, Maryland, New
Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island
and Virginia) where Bobs Discount Furniture
stores are located. Following the schools
selection, the Bobs Outreach Team visits each
winning school to award the grant and visit with
students and faculty.
Bobs Discount Furniture began the Celebrate
the Arts contest in 2006 after observing the
scaling back of fne arts programs and cultural
arts assemblies across many school districts in the
communities it serves. Cultural arts programs are
often the frst targets for elimination when schools
must make budget cuts, said Cathy Poulin, public
relations director, Bobs Discount Furniture.
Bobs wants to put the arts back in schools, which
is why we are so pleased to continue sponsoring
the annual Celebrate the Arts grant program.
The generous check we received from Bobs
Celebrate the Arts contest was a wonderful
surprise, said Judith Bassignani, principal of
Garvin Memorial School in Cumberland, RI, one
of last years contest winners. This donation
enabled us to have a local artist paint a mural in
our entryway, buy frames for students artwork
and assisted our weeklong celebration of
reading, which included book giveaways for the
students and a performance by the Tanglewood
Marionettes.
Beginning August 13, applicants can enter the
contest by flling out a form with their personal
contact information, as well as their schools
information. Entry forms can be found online at
www.mybobs.com/celebrate_arts and no purchase
is necessary. All entries must be submitted by
September 10.

Tech Tips for College-Bound
Students and Their Parents
For Todays Teens, the
Time to Plan for College
Expenses is Now
Just 30 years ago, textbooks, paper and pencils were
the main supplies college students needed. In todays
digital world, where more teachers are using technol-
ogy to deliver a better learning experience, college-
bound students need to equip themselves with the latest
technology to make the most of their college experience
and give themselves an academic edge. But how do
students and parents know which technologies can get
the job done, and how can they best use them to their
advantage?
From viewing lectures online and getting help
from a digital tutor to using one of more than 20,000
education-specifc apps now available, todays college
students have many options when it comes to technol-
ogy, says Brian Kibby, president of McGraw-Hill Higher
Education. Finding the right tools can enhance the
learning experience and improve student performance
in class - sometimes by a full letter grade or more. These
tools have great potential to help students master course
material and prepare them for success not only in the
classroom, but after graduation.
Here are some impor-
tant tech tips for college-
bound students and their
parents:
1: Get advice and choose
the best ft for you.
There is no single
piece of technology thats
right for every college
student. Its important
to think carefully about
your individual needs and
purchase only what works
best for you. However,
it can be helpful to ask
current college students
which devices they have
found to be the most use-
ful. Talk to recent grads
about what it takes to be
successful in college and
what, if anything, they
may wish they had done
differently in regard to
studying and technology.
Their answers might be surprising and help steer you in
the right direction.
2: Try before you buy.
Before you make a purchase, spend some time with
the equipment or program and see how it works. Think
of the three things youll use it for the most and make
your purchase based on those criteria. Before you de-
cide to buy an iPad, try using one to type an email, take
notes and view videos to see how comfortable it feels.
If not, try another option. In addition to how a device
functions, you should assess its portability and battery
life since youll be using it frequently and in different
locations.
3. Hire your very own digital tutor.
Personalized study tools like McGraw-Hill LearnSmart
dramatically increase student engagement, retention
and achievement through a customized learning experi-
ence, making study time more effcient and effective.
This adaptive learning program tailors students stud-
ies to their individual needs by continuously assessing
their knowledge and skills, and providing personal-
ized recommendations that help them master course
concepts. In a McGraw-Hill Effectiveness Study released
last year, LearnSmart was shown to turn C students into
B students, and B students into A students. Starting at
$24.99 a semester, its a simple and affordable way to
study more effciently and help increase your GPA.
4. When it comes to tech, put yourself in your profes-
sors shoes.
Once youre on campus, dont be afraid to ask profes-
sors for insights about which technologies will help you
the most. Many college professors today use a technol-
ogy called lecture capture that enables professors to
record lectures and make them available for replay after
class. Most colleges and millions of college students
use digital course hubs that house everything from the
course syllabus and e-book to interactive, adaptive
quizzes all in one location.
5. Stay connected to your college fnances.
If you understand how your college fnances work,
youre more likely to take college seriously and get
the most out of your education. Speak to your parents
about yearly tuition totals and the cost breakdown
of each individual class. Use tools like Mint.com to
understand spending habits, start a budget, and stay on
track. Graduating college with the best grades and as
little debt as possible is key to positioning yourself for
success after college.
6. Use social media for academic and professional
growth - not just to post party pictures.
College-age students are among the most active users
of social media, but many are not aware of the academ-
ic and professional benefts. Learn more about how so-
cial media platforms like Twitter and LinkedIn can help
build your academic network and market yourself as a
professional. Your colleges career center should have
plenty of info on how you can get started putting your
best foot forward with a positive social media footprint.

When it comes to planning for college, most parents are sure of just two things: They
want their child to get a college degree, and theyll need a smart savings plan in place
to ensure college expenses are covered.
For the 2009-2010 academic year, tuition, room and board at a private four-year col-
lege topped $32,000 per year, according to the National Center for Education Statistics.
In 1980, that fgure was just $5,594 per year. And even though college expenses were
signifcantly lower for previous generations, many report they are still burdened by
lingering debt. In fact, a recent survey, released by TD Ameritrade Holding Corporation,
found that among the parents of Generation Z (who range from ages 13 to 22), 58 per-
cent say they took out student loans to fund their own college education, and, of those,
43 percent report they are still repaying those loans.
Considering their parents struggles with college debt, it comes as no surprise that
Gen Z is eager to ensure they graduate with as little debt as possible. Among this group
of young adults, 39 percent cited that paying for college was a top concern, while
another 39 percent said they were also concerned about having a large student loan
balance.
Increased tuition costs and a bleak job outlook may be cause for
concern for todays young adults and their parents, but being proac-
tive and coming up with a savings strategy early can help ease these
fnancial anxieties and better prepare them for the future, says Carrie
Braxdale, managing director of investor services for TD Ameritrade, Inc.,
a broker-dealer subsidiary of TD Ameritrade Holding Corporation.
Braxdale recommends parents and young adults work together to start
planning and saving for higher education as soon as possible.
Its never too early - or too late, says Braxdale. For example, a
529 college savings plan can be opened as soon as a child has a Social
Security number, and contributions to that fund can be made every year
until the child goes to college.
The following tips are for families gearing up for college:
1. Calculate the costs
While a quick online search can give families an idea of college ex-
penses, predicting future costs can be a bit more challenging. There are
a number of free online resources available that can help parents and
teens estimate how much theyll need to save for college so they can get
a solid plan in place.
2. Explore your savings options
Parents and teens should work together to research college savings
options like 529 college savings plans, Coverdell Education Savings
Accounts and custodial accounts. Once they decide on a plan that will
work for them, the saving can begin.
3. Turn talk into action
Once a college savings plan is established, parents and teens should
follow through on their planning and make a conscious effort to save.
In many cases, regular contributions to savings plans can be made auto-
matically, making the process easier to manage. Once saving has begun,
you will have taken steps to pursue your higher education goals.

Pack a School Lunch
They Wont Want to Trade
Packing school lunches flled with healthy,
appealing and creative foods is an excellent
start to encouraging children to make sensible
food choices now and in the future. But if lunch
items you pack are less than appetizing, it could
be the next item of trade in the cafeteria: a risk
not worth taking in the age of nutrient-defcient
and calorie-heavy school lunches.
Break up the mundane sandwich routine with
well-rounded lunch combinations that will have
kids eating well and growing strong with every
bite. Here are some important components to a
lunch theyll think is worth keeping and eating:
* A main meal - Taste is important to children,
and feeding the occasional picky eater can be
quite a challenge. A tortilla roll-up with enticing
ingredients like avocado, tomato or cucumbers
with turkey, fsh or chicken will show even the
fnickiest of eaters that there is more to lunch
than the same old sandwich. Use the main meal
as an opportunity to offer kids different textures
and favors and make a lasting impression about
the many possibilities of food.
* A fun food - Making lunch food exciting is
the frst step to discourage trading and motivate
kids to try something new. A well-thought-out
presentation can inspire a healthy curiosity, and
kids will naturally want to give it a taste. Cherry
tomatoes, mozzarella balls and fresh basil alter-
nating on a toothpick is a fun and healthy salad-
on-a-stick with easily-controlled portions. Sweet
potato chips are another fun make-at-home
option that are packed with vitamins A, B6, C
and more. Bake up a batch on Sunday and pack
them in lunches all week.
* Something that goes crunch - Carrots,
apples and pretzels provide a lunch box with
plenty of
crunch to
keep things
fresh.
Crunchy
snacks are
the secret
to waking
up your
childs
brain
before
afternoon
lessons be-
gin, allow-
ing them
to fnish
off the day
strong. Snyders of Hanover pretzels are avail-
able in more than three dozen shapes, favors
and gluten-free varieties so everyone can have
their own favorite. Grab a 10-count of single
100-calorie snack packs in sticks, snaps or minis
to change it up from day-to-day and keep kids
wondering, whats next?
* A thirst quencher - Many kid-friendly drinks
are loaded with empty calories like sodas and
sweetened iced tea. Its important for a school
lunch to include liquids that keep kids hydrated
so they can think, move and perform at their
best. Limit caffeinated and sugary beverages like
sodas and iced teas, and instead encourage your
children to get in the habit of drinking water,
milk or real fruit juice.
* A love note - Lunchbox food is important,
but so is a reminder that the menu was made
with love. Encourage your children to do well in
class by slipping a note inside their lunchboxes.
Consider painting the inside of a lunch box with
chalkboard paint so you can write and erase
messages daily. Include a hand-written note or
draw a picture for a sack lunch bag.
* After-school energy boosters - Kids ex-
perience the afternoon slump just as much as
parents. With smaller stomachs, children are
often in need of snacks to keep their energy lev-
els going strong - especially after school. Keep
some Snyders of Hanover 100 calorie packs
handy. Kids can pair the snaps or minis with
cheese or meat slices for an extra energy boost.
With less fat and less sodium than many other
salty snacks, these portion-controlled packs are
the perfect snack that wont spoil any appetites
before dinner.
These essentials will have you thinking out-
side the (lunch) box and make your lunches the
envy inside the cafeteria. Try planning a menu
with your kids at the beginning of each week
and let them choose what meals and snacks
they want to eat on which day. Homemade
lunches are an easy way to control what
your children eat and youll know that
theyre getting the healthy nutrition
needed to perform well in school.
Not only will they not want to
trade it, theyll keep coming
back for more.

First times,
for any
experience,
are full of
uncertainty.
This is what
a child
faces when
the first visit
to a dentist
lies ahead. As a parent, you
can do a lot to ease your child's
entry into the unknown land of
the dentist's office.
It's all a matter of
preparation. Most of your efforts
will be preventative. First, don't
talk up the visit ahead of time;
this only gives your child an
opportunity to hear about the
experiences of friends. Usually
they will be exaggerated,
alarming accounts that can
only cause uncertainty and
fear.
You can avoid this by not
mentioning the dental visit until
the night before, that way
there's no time for a lively
imagination to go to work on a
routine subject.
Don't make a special event out of
the visit. Don't promise rewards; they
only tell your child that something
unusual is going to happen. That's a
sure way to trigger anxiety.
Your best attitude is to have no
attitude. You want to convey that
the dentist is another friend, like
those who come to your home and
show they care about your child.
You want to make the visit to the
dentist seem like one more typical
childhood experience.
Be prepared for questions,
children are full of them. Be factual
in answering them. The dentist
wants to know what's happening in
your mouth. He'll shine lights and has
a tiny mirror. He'll let you become
acquainted with the instruments he
uses in your mouth.
Most difficult rule to follow: Stay
out of the treatment room. In your
child's eyes you're the protector, the
guardian. Your presence signals
danger. There is none. Your trust
becomes a model for your child.

Top Five Back-to-School Organizing Tips
Five Ways to Help Kids
Boost Their Brain Power
Everyone is born with about 100 billion brain cells.
We form new connections between these cells through-
out life, but the rate is particularly high when were
young. Since those connections facilitate thinking and
learning, parents who want to help give their children
an intellectual edge should consider the brain-healthy
choices they make each day.
Making the effort to nurture your childs brain with
both proper nutrients and varied experiences, especial-
ly when they are young and developing at such a fast
rate, is crucial, says speech pathologist Lauren Zimet,
founder of Early Insights, LLC, and an expert on child-
hood brain development. The connections in brain
circuitry can be enhanced through the environments
and activities a child is exposed to, and participates in,
as well as the nutrients a child consumes.
Zimet offers fve tips to help parents enhance healthy
brain development in their children, positioning them
for success in school today, and well into their future:
1. Select a rainbow
Its no secret that the benefts of fresh
fruits and vegetables are numerous,
but thanks to the results of ongoing re-
search, you can confdently add brain
health to that list. Encourage your chil-
dren to eat a colorful array of produce
(organic when possible) each day so
they get the antioxidants, vitamins and
minerals needed to nourish and protect
their growing brains. If your child is
resistant to eating produce, encour-
age them to come shopping with you
and select something new to try. Kids
are more likely to eat what they have
selected themselves.
2. Relax the right way
While its true that exercise boosts
brain power, its also important to
teach children how to relax. Balancing
activity with relaxation is important so
that kids dont get too stressed, which can impact the
brains development and lead to learning and behavior
problems. Teaching children early on the beneft of
setting goals, working towards those goals, and giving
their brain and body time to relax are important life
skills. When its time to relax, skip the TV and teach
your child that taking a walk in nature, reading a book
or drawing are great ways to unwind. Deep breathing is
also an excellent practice to teach children of all ages.
3. Eat omega-3 brain food
Omega-3 essential fatty acids are critical to a childs
brain development. They are called essential because
we need them for optimal health. The problem is that
our bodies cannot manufacture them and we can only
get them from the food we eat or supplements we
take. While fsh, nuts and seaweed are good omega-3
sources, kids typically dont gobble down these foods.
That leaves many parents worried that their kids arent
getting enough, and with omega-3 defcits linked to
ADHD, dyslexia and other behavioral and psychologi-
cal disorders, many are turning to supplements for
their children. Experts agree that the safest, most reli-
able source of the most important essential fatty acids
(EPA and DHA) is a high quality fsh oil supplement.
Fortunately, there are purifed, molecularly distilled
fsh oil supplements that are manufactured with kids
in mind. Parents should be sure to choose one of these
chewable, tasty options like those by Nordic Naturals
to ensure success in getting their children to take the
supplements.
4. Happy brains are hydrated brains
Staying hydrated is important for growing brains and
bodies. Water can improve energy, increase mental and
physical performance, remove toxins and waste from
the body, and keep skin healthy and glowing. Based on
the trillions of cells in the body that need water to func-
tion, most nutritionists agree that children need more,
not less H20. To estimate how many ounces of water
your child should drink daily, divide his or her weight
in half and aim for that number of ounces per day.
5. Be a positive support system early on
Learning is a complex process, but children will be
more open to trying new things when they know their
parents believe in them. Acknowledging effort, instead
of the outcome, strengthens a childs belief in himself or
herself. Teaching goal setting, prioritizing activities and
working off of check lists exercises the prefrontal cortex
(PFC) in the brain. Experimentation through trial and
error is the way the brain learns best.
Giving your childs brain what it needs to grow
strong can help him or her at school and in all social
situations, adds Zimet. Utilizing these tips is a great
way to help position your child for success in the com-
ing school year, and beyond.

The start of a new school year is like a fresh box
of crayons - full of possibilities.
Ginny Bean, mother of three and publisher of
Ginnys catalog, suggests families take advantage
of this clean slate by establishing some new orga-
nizing routines.
Think ahead. Mornings are chaotic in most
households with school-aged children. Con-
sider handling as many daytime preparations as
possible the night before. Lay out clothes. Pack
lunches. Set out the breakfast dishes and cereal.
Pack backpacks.
Bean suggests making systems kid-friendly, so
young helpers can feel involved, and save mom
some time in the process. Carve out a spot on
a lower shelf of the pantry for lunch boxes and
lunch-making supplies. Then make children
responsible for putting away their empty lunch
boxes at the end of the school day, or even pack-
ing their own lunch.
Tackle school paperwork. Make a habit of
sorting through childrens backpacks with them
the same day they come home. Allot time after
school, when you arrive home from work, or after
dinner, depending on your familys schedule. Use
a tiered letter sorter or fling system with designat-
ed slots for each childs papers, and an A.S.A.P.
space for teachers notes, permission slips and
anything else that requires immediate attention.
For schoolwork and artwork you want to keep,
try a two-step approach. First, purge unwanted
items as soon as they come in the door. Collect
the possible keepers in a storage bin or wheeled
cart with color-coded drawers that allow for easy
separation by child or project type. Go through
stored items at regular intervals, perhaps once
a month or once a quarter. Keep in mind, the
more you accumulate, the easier it will be to pare
down, as the best pieces will stand out from the
crowd.
Designate a homework spot. Decide on the best
spot in your home to set up homework central.
Take into consideration how involved you need
to be with homework and your childs style. Does
he focus better with people around or in a private
setting? Is he better suited to sit at a desk or curled
up in a favorite chair with a laptop cart?
Once you have a place picked out, gather together handy homework tools and supplies into a
nearby bin, drawer or cabinet. Stock up on age-appropriate supplies such as pens, pencils, eras-
ers, paper, crayons, markers, a ruler, dictionary, calculator and a pencil sharpener.
Create a communication hub. Include the family calendar, a
chalk or bulletin board for posting messages and reminders, a
binder for key documents, colored markers, pens and pencils. If
youre a visual person, consider color coding your calendar by
assigning each family member a different color.
Remember not to forget. Use wall hooks and baskets or bins
near the front door to corral the items you need to remember
each day: backpacks, books, lunches, gym shoes, sports equip-
ment and musical instruments.

Thumbs up to the new recycling program. This
comingled program is so much better than the old
program. I understand it is new and a change.
There are some of us who dislike new and change.
With that said, what I just love
about this program is people
who werent recycling before
are recycling like crazy now.
This is a good thing! Im sure
whatever kinks folks have with
the program will be worked out
- its brand new, please give it
a chance! I personally love that
big blue recycling bucket!
Thumbs down. I just took
my daughter to see that new
movie, Ted, and it was horrible.
I thought it was a childrens
flm but it wasnt. We left
in the middle of the movie.
Hollywood, in my opinion, is
really turning out some horrible
flms and charging outrageous
money to see them. Hollywood
is the real 1 percenters,
they are horrible. Why do
these actors make millions
and millions of dollars when
teachers, fre fghters, and
police are being cut all around
the nation including Hudson
and Litchfeld? Thumbs down
to Holloywood!
Thumbs down to the person
who posted the comment about
the big, loud, rude, obnoxious
man in Cookies. That man
happens to be a friend to
many of the Cookies regulars,
including myself. Next time
you have something hurtful
to say to someone, say it to
their face. Dont be a coward
and hide behind the thumbs
column. Maybe its time you
found another place to eat.
Thumbs down! To Hudson
Residents who rent their home
and do not vote! Some residents
who rent do not feel that they
need to vote and feel that a
rise in property taxes doesnt affect them. Think
again! Landlords rent to make a proft, and if their
proft is decreased due to paying higher property
taxes on their rental property, the landlord may
be forced to increase the tenants rent every year
that Hudson has a property tax increase. A rise in
property taxes affects everyone, even renters. Vote,
to have your voice heard.
Thumbs down to the Obama Administration
for cutting Social Security payments to Senior
Citizens by 50% and taxing 40% on all Pension,
401k, and IRA disbursements. Seniors earned their
benefts, the government has no right to take them
away!
Thumbs down to the individual who wrote the
thumbs down to Hudson Fire Alarm. You clearly
arent listening close enough, because you would
have heard the rude demeanor of the Litchfeld
Fire Offcer. Hudson does a good job and should
keep it up and should be shown respect both here
and on the radio.
Thumbs down, to the comment about a Poll
tax being suggested. The formula to calculate your
property taxes is listed on the Town of Hudsons
website. Residents are urged to use the formula
to calculate their individual home property
taxes. Are you saying that the formula located
on the Towns website is wrong? The comment
did not state that the amount of
taxes paid to the town/school
board should be based on the
population of all adult residents
in Hudson ( Poll Tax). Property
taxes are paid by residents,
who are homeowners. http://
www.hudsonnh.gov/docs/as/
as-Assessment-vs-MarketValue-
2011-rev2.pdf.
Thumbs up to a complete
stranger, Katie, at the Hudson
Walmart site-to-store
department. I admire your
bravery and courage, you are a
role model to others! Go on girl!
Thumbs down to the person in the red Toyota
who took our table on Webster Street. The free
sign was for extra vegetables from our garden
that we share with our neighbors not the table!
Please return the table - no questions asked -
maybe a chuckle or two. Thank you.
Thumbs down to the woman in the black
Highlander who came from behind us and tried to
quickly pass us in the break down lane after we
had turned from the highway spur onto the Lowell
Road right turning lane (onto Wason) on Sunday
evening. After ignoring our horn and arm waving
and not even acknowledging
that we were there, she
didnt even slow down as she
squeezed by us. If we hadnt
slammed on the brakes, she
would have hit us.
Thumbs up to the Town of
Hudson for reducing property
values by about 10%. Taxpayers
need all the help they can
get. The only thing is, home
values have dropped 25 to
30%, thanks to the liberal- fair
housing act. You know, force
banks to loan to buyers they
knew would not pay. More must
be done, cuts must be made to
lower values and rates back to
where we were before the fake
housing boom.
Thumbs up to the Litchfeld
parents who make sure their
sons control their portions,
eat vegetables, and exercise.
I work at LMS and so many
children are obese and out of
shape because their parents let
them eat and do whatever they
want. These parents even buy
the junk food for their children.
Thank goodness the new health
care laws will begin to hold
these parents accountable for
the damage they cause.
Thumbs down to the
Governments plan to cut Social
Security to Senior Citizens, we
did earn that money!
Thumbs up to the Hudson
Highway Dept. for a great job
fxing the washout on Sand Hill
Road. You guys rock in more
ways than one!
Thumbs down to Hudson
Speedway for
racing until
almost 11 p.m. again; what
happened to fnishing by 10
p.m.? I have nothing against
racing and wouldnt complain,
but my neighbors agree - some of
us do get up very early Monday
morning. On the bright side, I
guess night racing is only for a
couple more weeks.
Thumbs up to the non-radical
little r republicans in Litchfeld.
The self-proclaimed big R
Republicans are making the
majority of us look bad with their
loony behavior.
Thumbs down to the amount
of time the Hudson Board
of Selectpersons spend on a
town park, over making sure
property assessments are correct
throughout the town! The current
asbestos removal problem is just
the tip of the iceberg in there,
that no one wants to talk about
and will end up costing the town
millions of dollars!
Thumbs up to the BEST PA
ever!! Happy Birthday Dad Hope
you dont have to work so hard
today!!!
Thumbs down to the fast bike riders on the
bike path. This is a recreational pedestrian way,
not the Tour De France. If you are biking much
faster than people are walking, you belong in the
road. At sunrise and sundown, bikers should be
in the road as you will not see people walking.
Pedestrians have the right of way, so dont force us
walkers off the path, thats rude.
Thumbs up to New Hampshire politics. Here
comes a convention with Jersey politics opposing
Chicago old boy politics. How many say they tell
it how it is, only to fnd out later that it was the
same bad story [lie] told over and over and over,
until it becomes believable but still not true.
Thumbs down to the people who complain
about the nice yard sales on Rte. 102. Not
all of us still have good jobs, enabling us to
shop at the mall. They have nice, clean items,
always guaranteed. Thank you for the yard
sale! I furnished my sons dorm room with small
appliances, including a mini-refrigerator for under
$60.
Thumbs up to the yard sale on Route 102. We
love it. Also, its not dangerous at all when people
do the 35 mph speed limit instead of 60 mph.
Thumbs down to the Hudson~Litchfeld News
for not printing my cats picture. I wasted a whole
stamp and I still think that my cat is the most
adorable animal in Hudson. So there!
Thumbs down to the Godiva lady at the
Nashua Mall. Her service was very disrespectful,
and all I was trying to do was purchase a
chocolate covered strawberry.
Thumbs Up? Thumbs Down? Thumbs Up? Thumbs Down?

two-vehicle collision. Upon their arrival Police
found Hudson Fire personnel were attending to
the occupants.
Hudson Police Offcers initiated an
investigation. It was determined a 2002 Jeep
Liberty, operated by Sally Leonard, 62, of Nashua,
was traveling west on Highland Street near Bonnie
Lane. A 2008 Mitsubishi Eclipse, operated by
Sandra Kauffman, 55, of Hudson, was traveling
east on Highland Street. Both vehicles were
approaching a moderate to sharp bend in the
road, from opposite directions. As the vehicles
approached each other, the Jeep crossed over
the double yellow line and collided with the
Mitsubishi.
Both occupants were treated for non-life
threatening injuries. Leonard
was transported to the Southern
NH Medical Center in Nashua
for observation. Kauffman
refused further medical
treatment at the scene. Both
parties were seatbelted at
the time of the crash. Both
vehicles had to be towed
from the scene of the crash.
Highland Street was closed
for about 30 minutes due to
the collision, but has since
reopened.
The cause of the crash is still
under investigation, however,
speed has been determined to
be a contributing factor.
