This Holiday Season
by Laurie Jasper
Hudson Memorial School hosted its rst annual November Night to Remember on
Friday, November 22, from 7:30 to 9 p.m. The schools gymnasium was lled with
students, families and faculty to kick off the start of the middle schools winter sports
season. Assistant principal and master of ceremonies for the evening, Keith Bowen,
warmed up the crowd shouting, Its about being loud and being proud! Bowen then
made the group practice, until perfect, the chant, HMS Colts, Colts, Colts! This is
a great turnout tonight. Its all about bringing the students together as a community.
We are promoting team spirit and sportsmanship, Bowen said. HMS teacher and
cheerleading coach, Liz McGivern, did a great job coordinating the contests and
awarding prizes throughout the night, while girls basketball team coach Frank Girginis
served as DJ for the event. In addition, the girls and boys basketball teams, wrestling
team and cheerleaders were well represented and were introduced, to the cheers of the
crowd. The teams performed a brief exhibition of their talents.
Proceeds from the pep rally and bake sale were donated to the Lowe family.
McKenzie Lowe is a sixth grader and member of the girls basketball team. She was
diagnosed one year ago with a Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG) brain tumor.
HMS Pep Rally -
Hudson Has Heart
by Marc Ayotte
Two Hudson school children had a wonderful, day-ending surprise in their
classrooms on Wednesday, November 20 when they received an unexpected
visitor just in time for Thanksgiving. Melissa Small, who is a Technical Sergeant
E-6 in the U.S. Air Force, sprung the surprise on her son Alexander and
daughter Taylor when she visited them upon her return from a two month long
training stint with the reserves at Fort Jackson in Columbia, South Carolina.
With original plans of greeting her children at the bus stop, Mrs. Small,
accompanied by her husband Andrew, expedited the rendezvous by rst
appearing at the H. O. Smith School in Hudson where she found her son
Alexander partaking in late
afternoon activities in Mrs. Alberts
rst-grade classroom. After a brief
get-together, the newly reunited
trio traveled just a few yards down
the street to complete the familial
encounter. At the Library Street
School, Melissa this time surprised
her daughter who was closing out
her day in kindergarten.
Sergeant Small is a 10 year
veteran of the reserves, stationed
out of Westover Air Reserve Base in
Chicopee, Massachusetts, attended
the training program as part of her
Chaplin assistant position. As part
of her role, Small indicated, we
support the airmen that are doing
the missions. Her last extended
training mission was four years ago
when she went for medical training
at Sheppard Air Force Base in Texas.
During this most recent hiatus from
her family, Sergeant Small did say
she was able to stay in touch with her family via Skype.
While at the training session at Fort Jackson, Small received the Leadership
Award; voted on by fellow classmates as well as staff members. The award was
in recognition of her outstanding display of great leadership skills.

The Litcheld Middle School First LEGO League has had a great
season. Three Campbell High School sophomore students, Max and
Marcus Rothaker and Trevor Rizzo are leading the team. They are
part of the First Robotic Team at Campbell High and did this, not
only for their sophomore project, but also to help get middle school
students interested in the program. Hopefully, these LMS students
will join the Robotic Program in a few years!
Our challenge is Natures Fury where we must research a place
where natural disasters strike and come up with a solution for a
problem they must deal with. We chose New Orleans and Hurricane
Katrina. We are programming and building attachments for a Lego
robot so that it can overcome common problems that happen when
a disaster strikes. There is also a group challenge where we have to
show how we can work together as a group to solve problems. It is a
big team and we are having fun!
The competition on Saturday was tough. Many teams had more
experience with programming and the League itself. We did great
with our presentation and our Group Challenge. We also did well
with our robot and programming, improving with each round. It was
an exciting and fun day!
Now that we have this experience, we look forward to next year!

Sharing the
Spirit of Christmas
submitted by Christine Marsden
Saturday, November 16, I had the pleasure of spending the afternoon with Santa
Claus and was witness to what Christmas really means. Yes, I know it is a little early in
the season for a visit from Santa but he made a very special trip to Litcheld to support
the Litcheld Community Church and all its efforts to be there for the community. Santa
is a friend of one of our church members and has been graciously donating his time and
talent to the community of Litcheld. His name is Richard Dean and we cant thank
him enough for the time he spends with us every year. Here is the story of how Santa
Claus made a huge impact on a Litcheld family.
We had a small space set up in the corner and as the kids came in to see Santa, he
came to life. He took a lot of time with each of them, talking and asking them what
they wanted for Christmas and encouraged them to be on their best behavior and to do
well in school. Halfway through our day, Santa overheard a conversation from a family
that had just come in, about how they couldnt bring one of their children to the church
to see Santa.

Catering and Banquet Hall on Wednesday, December 11 at 6 p.m.
to benet the Hudson St. Vincent de Paul Society. Cost to attend
is $25 per person that includes a buffet dinner of roast beef, baked
ham and pasta primavera.
The public is invited to join the Chamber for a great meal and
possibly win some fabulous prizes all while raising funds for a
worthwhile cause! The event is a combination of rafe items and
silent auction items, which include event tickets, gift baskets,
holiday items, gift certicates and much more! The GHCC is also
welcoming donations of items for the auction.
This will be the 12th year in which the monies received during
the evening will be donated to the St. Vincent de Paul Society. The
Society, which was established over 20 years ago and is operated
through Blessed John Parish at St. John the Evangelist Church in
Hudson, assists many local families by maintaining a food pantry,
assisting with rent and utility bills, and especially helping during
the holidays by distributing food baskets and gifts to families
in need. This year the call for services such as food requests,
assistance with medical needs, fuel assistance and basic living
expenses has dramatically increased making participation even
more important.
Last year, more than 60 businesses donated wonderful items for
the auction. Then, with over 130 guests in attendance showing
their holiday spirit and generosity by participating in the auction,
the Chamber was able to raise over $4,400. During the past 11
years, the GHCC Annual Auction has donated over $53,400 for the
benet of our community. Sponsors for the event are Annes Florals
& Gifts, Area News Group and Web Action Group.
The Silent Auction and Dinner will be held on Wednesday,
December 11, 6 p.m. Reservations and item donations can be
made through the Chamber ofce at 889-4731 or visit www.
HudsonChamber.com for more information. If you wish to directly
assist the Hudson St. Vincent de Paul Society, they can be reached
at 882-2462, ext. 6.

This is the time of year to give thanks, not only for our families and friends, but our health and wellness
too.
The new Senior Center is coming along steadily. The cupolas were installed on the roof and the
shingles are being laid. The inside is progressing with the interior walls going up and the windows are
installed. The siding is expected to begin shortly, as are the installation of the exterior doors. It will be
buttoned up so to speak before the snow ies!
With the passing of Thanksgiving comes the onset of holiday shopping. Remember to support your
local businesses, they are true assets to the town and would love to help you nd the perfect gifts.
There is nothing better than sending and receiving holiday cards this time of year. A card to a friend,
family or someone you havent spoken to in a while can brighten that someones day. They can be a lot
of work, but the joy you send is well worth it.
As life gets busy remember that the bonds that make you a family are so important and a little thing
like eating together every night is sometimes the most signicant thing you can do for your family.
As winter begins and the animals go into hibernation, dont let your own hibernation start too. It is
simple to add a little exercise to your day, an extra lap around the grocery store, or the clothing store.
The malls are always open early for walkers, and this is a great way to enjoy the holiday decorations
without all the hustle and bustle of the season.
The Girls Scouts, Troop 10236 have invited the Hudson Seniors to the Recreation Center Ofce on
Oakwood Drive for an afternoon of Crafts, Games and Christmas Carols. This will be held on December
12 from 3:30-5 p.m. If you are interested in attending please sign up with Lori at the Community Center
or send her an email to let her know you will be attending; lbowen@hudsonnh.gov.
Remember its the little things that make each day special, whether its a phone call from a friend or a
letter in the mail. Take a few moments today to reach out to someone whom you havent spoken to in a
while.
The Hudson Police Department is offering a seminar on Elderly Financial Fraud Prevention Safety on
December 7 at the Police Department, in the Ann Seabury Meeting Room from 2-4 p.m. If you have any
other questions you can contact MPO Allison Cummings for further information at 886-6011 or e-mail
her at acummings@hudsonnh.gov.
A couple weeks ago at our coffee club we were discussing the traditional Sunday night family dinner.
This was such an important part of family history and no one missed Sunday dinner. Ruthie talked about
how her Sunday dinner was enjoying the hard work of her familys life on the farm. From raising the
livestock, growing and harvesting the vegetables, then to serving them and enjoying the time as a family.
Thank you Ruthie for your stories, they are always so heartfelt.
I hope each of you has a tradition you can be thankful for, and today is a great day to start a new one.
With the cold and the changing of the season comes the onset of the winter cold. The easiest way to
not share this with others, or yourself, is to keep cleaning your home. A bottle of disinfecting spray used
on the door knobs is an easy way to start, and of course keeping the bathrooms clean. Removing and
changing your shoes in an area right when you come into your home will eliminate tracking all kinds of
material in with the snow.
For The Kitchen:
Berry Cream Coffee Cake
This is the coffee cake I make every special holiday in our house, such as Christmas morning,
Thanksgiving morning, Mothers and Fathers Day and Birthdays. I also share it on July 4th, and any other
day that comes up during the year. The dough is wonderful and sweet and my girls love to help me make
it. This recipe originated in my mothers kitchen, and she has been making it for years. So I am sharing
our tradition with all of you. Please enjoy this with your family and loved ones.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees
Take and combine in bowl (I use a mixer):
2 cups our
1/4 cup butter
1 tablespoon and 1 teaspoon baking powder
Combine to make small crumbs.
Add:
1/4 cup butter
3 oz. cream cheese
Mix well
A Special Treat for
Hudson Seniors
Then add:
1/3 cup milk slowly
Mix until it makes a ball of dough
Roll dough out between two pieces of wax paper until 3/4 inch thick, making a large oval shape.
Transfer to baking sheet. Put Jam down center of dough, cut up to, but not into jam in 1 inch increments
all the way around dough. Fold pieces over jam. They do not need to touch each other but can be laid
on top of each other as you go around.
Bake at 425 degrees for 12-15 minutes until jam is bubbly and dough is slightly browned.
Icing:
1 cup confectioners sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1-2 tablespoons milk
Drizzle over baked cake and serve warm.
(I use 2 tablespoons orange juice with strawberry jam, or I make it with lemon extract instead of
vanilla during the summer. Be creative it also is excellent with raspberry jam!)
If you would like to submit a recipe or a comment for our article please
contact Lori Bowen at lbowen@hudsonnh.gov or stop by and see her at the
Community Center every Tuesday through Thursday.
Tis is a breaking news story from the Giggle
headlines of the Save the Bears and Seals
network. Its not well known that the Arctic
Polar Bears and Seals are avid readers of the
Hudson~Litchfeld News, especially Te Word
Around Town and Tumbs sections; but they are
really smarter than the average bears and seals.
It was just minutes after they read the opinion
ofering encouraging Opening Up the Arctic
even more of it than has already been taken from
them; that the Bears and Seals enlisted the aid of
a high profle Washington, DC former politician
and activist lawyer, to begin an immediate Civil
Rights like March to the home of the author of
that opinion ofering in Hudson. From a leaked
news report (like from a melting and leaking ice
fow), the Polar Bears and Seals are frightened
that their future generations will be found only
in more and more zoos and on Reservations
for Polar Bears and Seals. Te Polar Bears and
Seals are right to be frightened for their future
well-being, after reading the news reports of the
slaughter of massive numbers of their elephant
kin for their ivory tusks, the almost complete
disappearance of Whales, and the capture of
countless dolphins and killer whales for humans
entertainment shows. Teir Civil Rights like
March to the authors home in Hudson will be
a peaceful march, they wish no harm to that
author; even as they understand that Opening
Up the Arctic, even more, will surely continue
to harm, even annihilate, Arctic Polar Bears
and Seals. For the Arctic Polar Bears and Seals
are very well aware of the folklore of how the
American Indians were mostly annihilated, with
the remainder forced into lives on reservations;
in conditions far worse, than how animals are
treated. Te Polar Bears and Seals will march
under the banner of You dont belong in the
Arctic.

Ayotte Urges FDA to Consider
Compassionate Use Request
for 12-Year Old Hudson Girl
Fighting Brain Cancer
Hudson family seeks permission to pursue
experimental treatment for daughters rare and
aggressive form of brain cancer.
submitted by the Ofce of
U.S. Senator Kelly Ayotte
U.S. Senator Kelly Ayotte (R-NH) is urging
the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to
allow a 12-year-old girl from Hudson, who
is suffering from a rare and aggressive form
of brain cancer, to pursue an experimental
treatment under the FDAs compassionate
use program. Last Thanksgiving, McKenzie
Lowe was diagnosed with Diffuse Intrinsic
Pontine Glioma (DIPG) and was given a
zero percent chance of survival, but she has
fought the disease for a year. Her family is
now seeking permission from the FDA to
pursue an experimental drug that may help
treat McKenzies disease but that has not yet
been approved by the agency. The Lowes
recently started a petition, which has been
signed by Senator Ayotte and more than
34,000 people across the world, asking the
FDA to grant McKenzie a compassionate
use exemption.
The Lowes are ghting for their
terminally-ill little girl and they deserve
the right to explore treatment options that
may help her continue to ght her cancer,
Ayotte wrote in a letter November 26 to
the FDA Commissioner. Whether or not
a terminally-ill child is able to receive
certain types of care should be a decision
made by the family. I would hope the
FDA would not stand in the way when no
other treatment options are available for an
already terminally-ill child.

Students at Litcheld Middle School were recently
visited by a special guest with a special message.
Fungo, the mascot for the New Hampshire Fisher
Cats, visited the school to launch its participation
in the 2013-2014 Fisher Cats Reading Challenge,
presented by a new partner, Velcro USA Inc.
Fungos challenge
to the students was
a simple one: if
you read ve books
outside your normal
curriculum, youll
earn two tickets to a
Fisher Cats Reading
Challenge Game at
Northeast Delta Dental
Stadium next spring,
courtesy of Velcro
USA, Inc.
Without a doubt,
these are some of
Fungos favorite days
of the year, right next
to Opening Day, said
Rick Brenner, Fisher
Cats President. Being
able to motivate and
reward these children
with Velcro USA Inc.
is a great thing. We
hope the students have
fun and look forward
to the excitement of
our special Reading
Challenge games next
season.
The Fisher Cats
assembly, one of about 40 that Fungo and the
Fisher Cats will make this school year, highlighted
the importance of developing strong reading
skills for these students both for their immediate
goals and their long-term ambitions. Additionally,
the assembly, which included a Fisher Cats staff
member, featured interactive games and healthy
living tips like exercising and eating right.
With our commitment to education and life-
long learning, Velcro USA applauds the Fisher Cats
Reading Challenge and its efforts to fortify reading
skills among children, said Scott Filion, President,
Velcro USA Inc. Were proud to support this
program and look forward to strengthening our
connection to the community by bringing families
together at upcoming Fisher Cats games.
By the end of the academic year,
the Fisher Cats will distribute 60,000
Reading Challenge bookmarks to
students across New Hampshire and
northern Massachusetts, reaching
approximately 150 schools. This will
raise the programs reach to more
than 260,000 students since 2007.
In addition to the individual
challenge, students will represent
their school in a special team
competition for the fourth straight
year. Through a donation from the
Fisher Cats Foundation, the schools
with the highest percentage of
students who complete the Reading
Challenge will be eligible to win one
of three prizes totaling $5,000 for
their schools.
The program is available
free-of-charge to all schools in
New Hampshire and northern
Massachusetts. To book a presentation
by Fungo and the Fisher Cats, or to
receive the program information, contact the Fisher
Cats Community Relations team at (603) 641-2005.
The Fisher Cats Reading Challenge, presented by
Velcro USA Inc., is a part of the Fisher Cats year-
round effort to give back to local communities.
Since 2007, the Fisher Cats and the Fisher Cats
Foundation have generated nearly $3 million in
monetary and in-kind donations to more than
3,800 non-prot organizations. In that time, the
Fisher Cats Foundation has awarded $200,000 in
scholarships to college-bound high school seniors.

Puzzle 21 (Medium, difficulty rating 0.46)
Answers on page 10
Sudoku
Santa offered to make the 20
minute trip to see her and I was
more than happy to accompany
him.
Her name is Maddy and she
is 5 years old. For several years
she has been ghting some kind
of neurodegenerative disease
that has eluded all the doctors
in New England. After many
stays in all the Boston hospitals
she was sent home with there is
nothing more we can do for her.
Maddy has a hospital bed
setup in the dining area of their
small apartment. Maddy doesnt
have much time left and her
family really wanted to make
this Christmas season her best. It
breaks my heart and brings me
to tears every time I think of her
and her family and at the same
time it amazes me when I see
how strong they are and how
much they love and care for her.
I met Maddys family when I
started attending worship services
at the church in 2001. Alison,
Maddys mom, grew up in this church and alongside her parents,
many hours were spent helping to support its members and the
community when they were in need. Its our turn now to give that
same love and support back to her family. She spent a few of her
high school years babysitting my daughter and then later, at the
same church, I was privileged to photograph her wedding, on a
beautiful December day.
This illness has been very difcult on her whole family as they
struggle to understand why this has happened. Maddy has a
younger sister, Brianna, that also needs the love and attention of
her parents and its been tough dividing their time between the
two sisters. When Santa stood by Maddys bed and prayed for her
it was very hard holding back the emotion, he reminded himself
he is there to bring joy not tears. They are extremely grateful for
the kindness and love that Santa offered.
In an e-mail he sent me later, he wrote:
I dont know how, but I managed to make them laugh; all of
us with Maddy, sharing the Christmas Spirit of joy and laughter.
They were happy, the whole family. They took pictures of me
with them. When I was leaning over the bed talking to Maddy,
she was looking at me and holding my hand tightly. I prayed for
her knowing this is soon to be one of Gods angels. Words cant
explain how magical the moment was. I was leaving knowing
they were happy, hugging each other, hugging and thanking me.
In church on Sunday, her grandparents expressed their gratitude
to this complete stranger for the love and kindness he showed to
their family.
We left the apartment with sadness in our hearts only to
stumble upon a group of oddly dressed men playing golf that
looked like they escaped from the North Pole. I spotted a pair
of Christmas decorated golf carts as
we passed the Passaconaway Country
Club and the photographer in me
said we need to go back there and get
some pictures of that. I asked Santa
if he was game and excitedly he
agreed. We stopped on the side of
the road and made our way across the
street. We were acknowledged by the
cars going by with waves and beeping
horns. As we got closer
to the group of golfers,
I suspected they were
playing golf somewhat
for the same reason we
were making a house
call. They were playing
in a golf tournament
to raise money for a
childrens charity in
Nashua. And they were
dressed for the occasion.
Each of them had on
some kind of Christmas
costume and we couldnt
resist adding Santa to
complete the group. At
our request they posed
for some pictures and
brighten up our day
after the sadness we just
experienced.
There are many circumstances of children in
need and many ways to help them. Find a way
this holiday season, or anytime of the year, to help
support a child or family in need, it will warm your
heart.
The Litcheld Community Church Presbyterian
has been a large part of the Litcheld community
for a very long time. We are a small but mighty
group ready and willing to be there whenever we are
needed. It is the home of the Litcheld Food Pantry.
We serve breakfast on the second Saturday of every
month and we are open every Sunday at 10 a.m.

submitted by the National Turkey Federation
Eating healthy this Thanksgiving begins with basic home food safety
practices that are known to reduce the risk of foodborne illnesses.
The National Turkey Federation and Partnership for Food Safety
Education remind all cooks entering the kitchen this season to follow
the Fight BAC! basics of home food safety: Clean, Separate, Cook,
and Chill.
Clean Wash hands with warm water and soap for 20 seconds
before and after handling food; wash surfaces often with hot water
and soap.
Separate Separate raw meat, poultry, seafood and eggs from
other foods in your shopping cart, grocery bag and in your home
refrigerator; use separate cutting boards for fresh produce and for
raw meat, poultry and seafood. Your turkey shouldnt be lying next
to your spinach, and yams, until everything is cooked and on your
plate.
Cook Food is safely cooked when it reaches a high enough
internal temperature to kill the harmful bacteria that cause illness.
Your turkey should be cooked to a minimum of 165 F as measured
with a food thermometer. Check the temperature of your stufng
as well! Best and most healthful results come from preparing and
cooking the stufng separately outside the bird.
Chill After a big holiday meal, wed like to think everything will
keep while we take a quick nap; however for safety, your delicious
leftovers need to be refrigerated promptly within 2 hours.
Divide large amounts of leftovers into shallow containers for
quicker cooling in the refrigerator. Keeping a constant refrigerator
temperature of 40 F or below is one of the most effective ways to
reduce the risk of food poisoning at home.
Temperature
The ideal Thanksgiving Day turkey is deliciously moist inside
and golden-brown outside. Use of a food thermometer ensures the
turkey is cooked safely and also cooked to your taste. If the turkey
is stuffed, test the internal temperature in three places by inserting a
food thermometer in the thickest part of the thigh, the breast and the
stufng. The internal temperature must reach a minimum of 165 F
in all three places. For a tasty and safe turkey, the National Turkey
Federation recommends the temperature reach 175-180 F in the
thigh, 165 F in the breast and 165 F in the stufng. While it has
been established that 165 F is the minimum internal temperature for
poultry to be consumed safely, most American consumers prefer to
cook dark meat turkey to 175 F.
To get an accurate reading, do not let the thermometer tip touch
bone. If the turkey is done and the stufng is not yet 165 F, remove
the stufng from the turkey and place it in a greased casserole dish to
continue cooking until the stufng reaches 165 F.
Better the Second Day.
Snacking on leftover turkey, and enjoying entirely new dishes
provides delicious alternatives the next day, but leftovers cant stay in
the refrigerator indenitely. Below are some great tips to keep your
family healthy beyond the rst helping.
Divide leftovers into smaller portions and store in shallow
containers in the refrigerator.
Eat cooked turkey and stufng within 3-4 days and gravy in 1-2
days. Cooked turkey keeps for 3-4 months in the freezer.
Reheat leftovers to 165 F as measured with a food thermometer,
and bring gravy and sauces to a boil before serving.
Microwaved leftovers shouldnt have cold spots (bacteria can
survive). Cover food, stir and rotate for even cooking.
Food Safety Support - Holiday Food Safety Success Kit
The Holiday Food Safety Success Kit at www.holidayfoodsafety.org
includes complete information on purchasing, thawing and cooking
a turkey; a holiday planner with menus, timelines, and shopping lists;

Litchfeld Seniors Welcome Singer John Ogrodowczyk
Ruth Roulx, Dick Roulx, Charlotte Morse and Helen McQueeney are seen eating
lunch, Tursday November 21, at the Presbyterian Community Church.
by AJ Dickenson
The Litcheld Seniors, who meet the third Thursday of every
month at the Presbyterian Community Church off the Charles
Bancroft Highway, met once again on the 21st. The social group
gathered for lunch and a little entertainment courtesy of local NH
singer John Ogrodowczyk. The recently retired singer has not only
sang internationally traveling through countries in Europe but has
also sang the national anthem at two Red Sox games in 2007 and
2011. Johns experience performing in theoretical arts also suited
him well as he, along with the whole group of Litcheld seniors,
sang classic Christmas songs as they prepared for the holiday season.
Litchfeld School District Making a Difference
submitted by Leah Stagnone, CHS Student Council Historian
The Litcheld School District participated in its annual
Make a Difference Week last week, from Monday Nov. 18 to
Friday Nov. 22. Each year, the Campbell High School Student
Council organizes this event with the cooperation of the rest
of the district to gather both nonperishable food items and
personal hygiene items for donation to the Litcheld Food
Pantry at the dawn of the holiday season.
This year, over 3,000 items were donated between all three
Litcheld schools, making for a generous donation to the food
pantry. Student Council President Ryan Perigny commented
on this great level of participation that he is very proud of
everyone for all the donations we received this year, and said
that, this is a great time for the whole school to get involved
and benet the community.
At Campbell this year, the top-donating advisory was
Madame Kahns with 535 items for the week. Second place
went to Seora Gatherums advisory with 407 items, 384 of
which were donated on Friday. These advisories, along with
the top advisories for the freshman, sophomore, and junior
classes, will celebrate with food prizes like pizza and ice
cream.
Thank you to students and staff at Campbell, Litcheld
Middle School, and Grifn Memorial who donated to make
a difference in the community. Thank you as well to all who
worked to make this event happen!

In an attempt to bring greater awareness to
the prevailing and growing issues surrounding
bullying, Hudson Memorial School (HMS) has
partnered with The Sports Museum, a Boston
based, private non-prot organization. HMS
became involved with the entity that utilizes
professional athletes from Boston area teams such
as the Celtics, Patriots and Revolution to speak
to children regarding the problem of bullying.
Relatedly, the program is geared somewhat to
student athletes who, through athletics, may play
a different and more effective role in deterring
potential bullying scenarios.
According to HMS Assistant Principal Keith
Bowen, Athletic Director John Fichera brought
the concept of getting involved with the Boston
vs. Bullies program directly to him. As a result,
the two traveled to Boston and attended a
seminar at the Celtics Executive Board room in
the TD Garden. In turn, the ve-part program
which entails addressing students, parents and
teachers was implemented at HMS as a means
of enhancing or adding to the current in-house
and student-led Ambassadors of Hope program
which deals with bullying.
Representing The Sports Museum and
conducting the presentation to the sixth through
eighth grade students on Monday, November 25
in the schools gymnasium was Ed Donnelly, a
former headmaster with 35 years of experience
in the Boston school system. In an entertaining,
interactive and informative presentation, Donnelly
touched upon various aspects of bullying, which
included differentiating between teasing vs.
taunting and telling vs. tattling.
More importantly, he addressed through a
slideshow and student-involved role playing, other
key elements of how and why bullying exists.
Why Bystanders Stay Silent and Do Nothing,
Typical Bystander Reactions along with Indirect
Intervention and Direct Intervention methods
were topics of the interactive session which
actively involved dozens of students gathered for
the event.
Donnelly illustrated that boy bullying is
usually physical. He added that in this scenario,
Its about power. As a result, the male bully is
inclined to enhance his feeling of empowerment
by steering the altercation to an area where there
are no adults and few witnesses. Three direct
intervention techniques he touched upon with
respect to removing the victim and defusing the
situation were complimenting the bully, logic,
and being a goofball. Through all the options,
Donnelly impressed upon his audience the most
important action; which was to notify an adult in
any situation that reects bullying characteristics.
Regarding girl bullying, Donnelly noted
the difference in tactics between the genders
by saying that the females tend to attack their
victims verbally; for example, by criticizing or
making fun of the way one dresses or the way one
looks (outward appearance). Nonetheless, the
intervention techniques and approach to defuse
the bullying situations, he cited, should remain
consistent.

Enthusiasm and heart are
important, and this team has
both, said Coach Girginis. It
is amazing how this community
pulls together to help others. I
say the H in Hudson stands
for heart. This town always
comes together; I know that from
personal experience. This town
cares, shared Girginis.

production of Guys and Dolls
played to capacity crowds
this past weekend. Audience
members were treated to a
musical journey to 1940s New
York City, complete with classic
songs like Luck Be a Lady and
If I Were a Bell. More than 70
CHS students took part in the
production onstage, offstage, and
backstage. Students were ably
led by a large production team
including director Jill Deleault,
pit conductor Phil Martin, and
choreographers Deborah Nordyke
and Liana Pioccone. Some
student standouts included senior
Erin Kelley who choreographed
all the Hot Box dance numbers
and Steve Amadio, who was
onstage for his fourth CHS
musical production. Another
highlight of the show was the
matinee invitation to community
senior citizens - free tickets for all!

Shopping Deals?

This
Holiday
Season
(BPT) - You know the holidays have ofcially begun when
the tinsel and colored lights go up in stores, streets and homes.
Thanksgiving Day is now Black Thursday, when consumers - still
hungry and primed for the best possible holiday
deals - ght the famous tryptophan sluggishness
and rush off to the mall not long after the turkey
is carved and gobbled.
Does that sound like you? Then its time to
seize the sales. There are mega-deals to score
and big savings to brag about!
Last year, shoppers spent an average of $423
each just on Black Friday, which has become
the years busiest shopping day. Some shoppers
are planning to pitch a tent outside the mall or
their favorite big-box store a day early. But what
if theres a better way to get your hands on great
deals? What if youre sitting on actual money
you can spend ... but dont even know about?
If youre among the millions of people who
sign up for rewards programs - be they from
airlines, banks, co-branded credit cards or
retailers - each year, youve probably signed up
for more loyalty programs than you can keep up
with. Squeezing the most value from each dollar
can be tricky when your points are spread out
across so many accounts. You can also forget
to redeem your rewards amid all the holiday
seasons hustle and bustle.
But guess what? You can skip the Black
Thursday and Friday craziness and get the same
satisfaction of a killer deal - all from the comfort
of your laptop, smartphone or tablet - by taking
a trip to Points.com instead. Its a loyalty wallet
that brings together all your favorite loyalty
programs and gives you a smarter way to shop
for everyone on your list this year.
The hundreds or thousands of miles and
points youve earned with your favorite loyalty
programs, including American Airlines AAdvan-
tage, Icelandair Saga Club Points and EssoExtra,
can be combined and redeemed for holiday gifts
in one spot. Forget coupon-clipping or camp-
ing out at midnight to score a great deal: shop
smarter by tapping into the earned rewards you
already have in your digital wallet.
Points.com is like an open loyalty
mall that brings all your rewards
together so you can keep track
of how much youve earned with
each program - and see how you
can spend these rewards. You can
exchange the rewards currencies
youve earned for gift cards redeem-
able at hundreds of top retailers
including: Macys, Best Buy, The
Home Depot, Sears, Walmart and
even Amazon.com.
Thanks to Points.com, tracking,
managing and maximizing your
loyalty points has never been easier.
Signing up is quick and easy -
you can create an account in one
click if youre logged into Facebook.
Once youve registered your re-
wards accounts, you can use Points.
coms redemption tool to turn your
rewards into holiday gifts for the
people you care about.
Some of you may already be pros
at cashing in your rewards cur-
rencies or may not think you have
enough points to make a difference.
However, signing up can also help
you get more from your rewards
through the sites many special
promotions.
So visit the website to see all
the potential dollars you may not
even know you have and use those
dollars to delight family, friends
and colleagues. If you act now,
youll receive your cards just in
time for holiday shopping. And,
hey, why not tell your friends?
Theyll thank you - and possibly
trade you some points or use
their rewards to give you that
gadget, DVD set or pair of shoes
youve been craving.
This year, save yourself the
hassle - and maybe even an
injury - by leaving the Black
Friday trample to the less savvy.
Hit Points.com to shop from
the comfort of your home with
points and miles you earned and
can now redeem. Its like nding
a hundred-dollar bill under the
sofa cushions. Now that sounds
like an amazing deal.
We will be closed Thanksgiving & Christmas Day.

Tips for Merry Holiday
Season Travel
(BPT) - Traveling during the holiday season can
be fun, but it also offers its fair share of anxious
moments, stress and expense.
This year, between Thanksgiving weekend and
New Years Day, an estimated 100 million Ameri-
cans will travel by car, train or air to visit family
or go on vacation, based on forecasts issued in
previous years by the American Automobile As-
sociation (AAA).
The key to avoiding stress and potential legal
issues during the busy travel season is planning,
according to FindLaw.com, the nations leading
website for free legal information.
Here are some additional tips from FindLaw.
com to keep your holiday travel plans safe and
stress-free:
* Be sure you have all necessary travel docu-
ments. A valid ID, such as a state-issued drivers
license, is necessary beyond the Transportation
Security Administration (TSA) checkpoint at the
airport, and will certainly be essential if you want
to rent a car at your destination. If you plan to
leave the United States, you must have a passport.
According to the State Department, all minors
regardless of age, including newborns and infants,
must have their own passport when traveling
internationally by air. FindLaw advises that you
apply for your passport at least six weeks before
your trip. Also, make photocopies of all travel
documents - the front and back of your license, or
the information pages of your passport - and store
them in a safe place in the event that your wallet
or purse is stolen, or your luggage is lost.
* Dont advertise your trip on social media.
Posting your travel plans online
such as on social media sites is an
open invitation to thieves. Contact
your local law enforcement agency
and notify them of your travel
arrangements - they can offer you
tips, help assess the risk of crimes
in your neighborhood or add your
property to a watch list if you
are gone for an extended period.
Also, make sure your neighbors are
aware of your travel plans so they
can watch for suspicious activity.
Save the social sharing for after
your trip.
* Pack smart and carefully. Avoid
packing items that cause delays at
airport security checkpoints. Ship
gifts ahead of time and pack elec-
tronics and liquids as directed by
the TSA (www.tsa.gov). For
liquids, gels and aerosols,
use the 3-1-1 rule - 3.4
ounce -bottle or less, by
volume; placed in a 1 quart-
sized clear, zip-top plastic
bag; 1 bag per passenger.
Carry all prescriptions in
their original, clearly la-
beled bottles. Carefully fol-
low all TSA rules pertaining
to metal objects, including
unloaded rearms, which
must be declared at time of
check-in.
* Check your insurance
coverage. If youre going
to take an extended trip
overseas, consider upgrad-
ing your insurance to ensure
you have proper coverage. If
you rent a car, have copies of your auto insurance
card and information on hand. Carefully check
your personal policy for rental coverage to make
sure you are covered. Consider travel insurance
to reduce the nancial blow if you are forced to
cancel or interrupt your trip. Read the insurance
policy carefully before accepting and only go
through a respected insurance provider.
* Check your cell phone plan. Dont assume
your cell phone will work in another part of the
country or overseas. Check with your provider
to see what kind of coverage you will have at
your destination, and if youll need to upgrade to
use your phone. If you travel out of the country,
research local calling procedures before you leave
home. Learn, for example, how payments are han-
dled, country calling code, etc. Avoid the helpless
feeling of trying to operate a payphone; operator
assistance and automated instructions may come
in a language you cant understand.
* Plan for an emergency while you are gone.
Make sure your trip is fun and carefree by plan-
ning ahead for the worst. Check weather forecasts
and set your travel schedule accordingly to avoid
potential setbacks. If you are traveling overseas,
or in an area you are not familiar with, check the
State Department website for updated travel warn-
ings and current credible threats, and determine
the location of the U.S. embassy or consulate
where you will be travelling. Always, be knowl-
edgeable of local laws and customs.

holiday season, visit FindLaw.com.
Tips to Help You Shop Smarter
(BPT) - The holiday season is all about celebrat-
ing with family and friends, which means more
merry-making, staying organized and enjoying the
time spent shopping for the perfect gifts. A smart
shopper is able to access and keep organized
great deals and discounts, reduce time with online
shopping and check for last-minute opinions if
absolutely necessary.
To help be a smarter shopper this holiday sea-
son, consider putting these tips to use:
* Keep the deals and discounts organized - At
this time of year, everyones inbox is ooded
with promotions with varying expiration dates.
Holiday-themed emails began lling inboxes
across the country starting mid-October, and will
continue to increase over the next two months,
according to an Experian study. Being able to
train your inbox to manage these promotions for
you will help save time while online shopping.
Outlook.com has a sweep feature that allows
users to move everything from a particular sender
to a single folder with a quick push of a button,
and then delete everything except the most recent
communications. In a matter of seconds, the
hundreds of holiday deals clogging your inbox
are sorted and deleted except for the deals you
need in order to receive a discount on your online
purchase. More than half of holiday shoppers will
shop online this season, according to the National
Retail Federation, but youll be ahead of the game
with your promotions organized for quick access.
* Make certain your online shopping is secure
- Identity theft is a big concern during the holiday
season, and keeping your credit card and account
information secure should be a priority, especially
when shopping online. Start rst with the Internet
browser youre using. Internet Explorer 11 is the
most secure browser among its competitors, ac-
cording to NSS Labs. By keeping your browser
and other software updated youll have the most
up-to-date security protection on your computer.
Also, when shopping, make certain youre on a
secure site. The SmartScreen Filter on Internet
Explorer 11 helps warn you about unsafe sites
before you share your account information with
people who could misuse it.
* Share your wish lists - Many families create
wish lists to help in nding the perfect gift for
each recipient - you wouldnt want anyone receiv-
ing another fruit cake! But sometimes a typed list
doesnt convey the full idea of exactly what youre
looking for. Use visuals to remove any confusion
about what you really want by uploading and
sharing a photo wish list on SkyDrive. That way,
you know the wish list will always be with you
through the cloud.
* Get a last-minute opinion - Sometimes the
shopping list fails or youre in need of an urgent
gift, and nd yourself in a crowded store faced
with a gift dilemma. Grab a second opinion with
a friend or family member using Skype on your
phone. You can use both video calls and messages
to communicate your quandary, and quickly ar-
rive at a mutual agreement, allowing you to nish
your shopping and enjoy the rest of the holiday
season.
Smart shopping helps remove stress from the
holiday season, and you can accomplish your
shopping to-do list much more efciently. Youll
soon discover you have free time to hang out with
friends and family more often and really enjoy the
holiday season.
Thumbs up to my amazing husband who
celebrates his 40th birthday this November! You
are the love of my life and Im lucky to have
spent 18 years out of the 40 with you. Your hard
work and dedication to our family never goes
unnoticed. Shepley, Tia and I hope you have
a great Birthday and know how much you are
appreciated and loved. Cheers!
Thumbs up to the head custodian at H.O.
Smith and Library Street School for the excellent
job he did for the conversion of the school for
kindergarten and rst grade students, also the day
guy at Library Street School helped the transition a
little easier. They work very well together.
Thumbs up to the cafeteria ladies at Campbell
High for a delicious Thanksgiving lunch!
Thumbs down to the lefty. I had to comment
after last weeks rant. Have you checked out who
is getting wealthy under Obama? It certainly is
not the middle class. It is the wealthy getting
even richer and owning even more stocks. The
middle class has less now
than they did under Bush. The
gap between wealthy and the
middle class has grown greatly
under Obama. Wake up and
get a clue. Fast and furious,
Benghazi, IRS targeting of
people, spying on people, no
budget ever, unprecedented
growth of the debt, Obama
care asco ... it goes on and on
and on. That hope and change
is working out so great. This
president is completely in over
his head and incompetent.
Thumbs down to the
contractor who is doing the
work on the house. You should
not be constantly urinating
in the back yard for others to
see, especially when there are
children walking by. Get a porta
potty if you need those services in your remodel.
Poor business practices.
Thumbs up to the Hudson-Litcheld Bears
Division 10 Cheer coaches, student demos, and
team mom. You did an amazing
job teaching the girls to cheer
but more importantly you did an
amazing job teaching the girls to
work together and support each
other as a team. Thank you
for the wonderful experiences
you gave to this lucky group of
girls!
Thumbs down to people
who think having children is
their right. Its not a right, its a
privilege. If you cant afford to
stay home with your children,
dont have them. Children
require both a mom and a dad
in their lives, thats the way it
works! Im tired of dealing with
brats and uncontrollable kids
whove been dropped off at
daycare all week and are angry
about it; Im tired of being afraid
to walk alone in the woods or
in the city because of violent
teenagers. Violent video games
that teach kids to attack and
destroy do effect the way kids
think, and theres no place in
our society for allowing that
behavior. I didnt have children
because I couldnt stop working
and give them a stable family
life and I didnt have the right to
force a child to grow up without
all they should have. Think
twice about your actions, and
what youre doing and what
having a family really means.
Thumbs down to the elderly
woman and her able bodied son
who accepted a Holiday food
donation box. You own two
homes ... winter at your Florida
residence, have available family
nancial support and certainly
are not needy. Hope that you ...
re-gifted!
Thumbs up to the Hudson
town common and all the work
the DPW has been done there.
It looks beautiful and its getting
exciting for Christmas. We also
love the new design behind the
bench; it makes that set up look
outstanding. Merry Christmas!
Thumbs up for the Campbell
school lunch staff for the very
delicious thanksgiving meal,
totally appreciated.
Thumbs down. Why cant we create a
government debit care that only accepts certain
items? These items could have a certain color
bar code that the shopper could recognize before
putting it in their shopping cart. Add an extra
space to the bar code that gives the government
approval. Now if you could automatically
forward the
nal receipt
to a center
that its case
worker has
access to
then those tax
dollars would
be supervised.
I think
manufacturers
could pull
this off and
help America
be more
efcient.
Thumbs
down to the
lady who
yelled and
gave my sister
and me a
difcult time
for speaking
our native
language at
Wal-Mart
parking lot
on Saturday,
November
23rd. I dont
care if this
is America;
Im a legal
non-U.S.
citizen who
pays taxes
like everyone
else. I have
two nephews
who are in
Iraq right
now risking
their lives
to save your
country! My
suggestion to
you is to read
and educate
yourself on
the American
Constitution.
Thumbs
down to
people who walk the streets of Litcheld at night
wearing dark clothing and not carrying any light
or reectors. It is getting dark
earlier and dont be surprised
if you see someone traveling
over 10 mph in a 25 or 30 mph
zone.
Thumbs up to ignoring
ideology and realizing that
sometimes other people have
good ideas too. A great thing
about America is that we can
pick and choose what is best
from other cultures and blend
it with our own. When dozens
of other countries somehow
manage to not only provide
health care for all, but also do it for far less cost,
its time to take our heads out of the sand and pay
attention.
Thumbs up to Faith and Reason, two ways of
discovering Truth. To their union! Thumbs up,
Franciscan Friar Roger Bacon and Bishop Robert
Grosseteste, forerunners of the scientic method;
to Catholic priest Gregor Mendel, the Father of
Genetics; to Father Georges Lemaitre, proposer
of the Big Bang Theory; to Catholic canon
Nicolaus Copernicus, formulator of heliocentric
cosmology; to Abbess Hildegard of Bingen for
her medicinal texts; to two Fathers of Western
Philosophy, Bishop Augustine of Hippo and Father
Thomas Aquinas; to chemist Pope Francis. Finally,
thumbs up to countless members of the Catholic
laity -and also to those outside the Church who
believed in God (Darwin, Einstein, Planck) - for
their invaluable discoveries throughout the ages.
Pope John Paul II wrote, Faith and reason are like
two wings on which the human spirit rises to the
contemplation of truth. Thumbs up and amen!
Thumbs up to Chief Buxton for looking out
for the North Hudson residents with opening the
Robinson Road Station 24/7.
Thumbs down to the lights at Mission Point.
When it gets windy, they change by magic.
Thumbs up to great winter sport kickoff at
HMS - Go Colts!
Thumbs down. While winter is on its way,
isnt it too early on 11/22 to be this cold?
Thumbs Up? Thumbs Down? Thumbs Up? Thumbs Down?

PUBLIC NOTICES
submitted by Melina Prevel-Turmel,
Grifn Memorial School, Litcheld
Many children left happy after attending the Grifn Memorial
School Scholastic Book fair last week. The PTO generously donated
money to make it possible for each kindergartener to leave the book
fair with a book when they attended during their library time.
A special thank you to all of the parents and high school students
who volunteered their time to set up, run and pack up the book fair.
The book fair could not happen without your help!
We were able to raise a little over $2,200 which goes back into
buying materials and equipment for the students and teachers to
borrow from the library. Twenty-three dollars was donated to the
All for Books program, which not only gets books into the hands of
children in less fortunate areas of our country, but also adds books to
our school library.
Thank you to everyone who supported the book fair! See you next
November!

HCTV Channel 20 Program Schedule Shaheen Urges HHS:
Establish User-Friendly
Resources to Help Brokers
Enroll Consumers in
Health Plans
submitted by the Ofce of U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen
As problems with Healthcare.gov persist, U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) has
called on Health and Human Services (HHS) to address the issues facing agents and
brokers and utilize all the tools at our disposal to help health insurance agents and
brokers educate and enroll Americans in quality health insurance coverage. In a letter
sent Friday, November 22, to HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, Shaheen urged the
Administration to consider practical, user-friendly resources, such as a dedicated call
center line for brokers, to help as many consumers as possible to sign up for insurance
coverage through Healthcare.gov before the enrollment deadline.
Insurance agents and brokers are experiencing barriers that prohibit them from
successfully helping consumers sign up for health insurance online, by mail or through
call centers, Shaheen said in the letter. Making meaningful progress in addressing their
concerns is critically important to ensuring robust enrollment in Healthcare.gov, and I
encourage the administration to address the issues facing agents and brokers.
Shaheen rst expressed concerns about the roll out of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) in
October when she called for more time for people to sign up for health insurance plans.
She recently introduced legislation, The ACA Enrollment Extension Act, that would give
people in New Hampshire and around the country more time to learn about their health
care options and sign up for a plan by providing, at minimum, an extra two months for
consumers to sign up for health care plans through the health care exchanges. Shaheens
legislation would also protect individuals from being penalized for the amount of time
that enrollment is extended and give the Health and Human Services Secretary exibility
to further extend enrollment if Healthcare.gov isnt fully functional on December 1.

Improper ash removal from replaces and wood burning stoves cause thousands of res
each year.
Hot coals, hidden in a pile of ashes and thus well insulated, can stay hot for up to four
days. Ancient man actually transported re by carrying hot coals, insulated by ashes and
wrapped in animal skins, from one location to another. When arriving at the next home
site, rekindling a re was easy: remove the still-hot coal, place it on a small pile of leaves
and twigs, blow on the hot ember, and restart the re.
Keep in mind that res are still started this way, but too often, its an accidental re.
Never empty ashes into a paper or plastic bag, cardboard box or other similar containers.
The only suitable means for ash storage is a metal container with a tight tting lid; this
helps to keep air from blowing through and disturbing ashes, which can leave hot coals
exposed for reigniting. Many home res begin from improperly stored ashes while the
homes occupants are asleep, as the evening breeze intensies.
For optimum safety, wet the wood ashes prior to attaching the metal lid to the pail.
Do not store your metal ash container on your deck, in your garage or in any location
that may allow heat to transfer from those hot coals to nearby ammable items. Untold
wooden decks catch re every year due to this simple oversight. Can your ashes.
And nally, wood ash, once completely cooled, can safely be disposed of in your
garden because natural rewood ash makes a great soil additive that your plants will
enjoy. Just make sure you have removed any mulching materials such as dried leaves and
other dried plants rst, so theres nothing to catch re in your garden. Spray the dispersed
ashes with water as an added safety precaution. Do not add ashes to your soil if you burn
coal, or ashes from burned wood that was painted, stained or treated with any chemicals
as these chemicals may be harmful to your soil and plants.

Prepare Your Car for Winter with These Simple Tips
(BPT) - Getting ready for winter is no small feat. It takes time and
planning to make sure your family and your home are ready to brave
the elements. But is your car as ready as you are? If you havent
thought about preparations for your vehicle, these simple tips will
help you prepare for the colder months ahead.
* Check your tires. You depend on your tires more during the
winter than any other season. So before the roads get slick, check
your tires to be sure they arent worn and that they are properly
inated. You should be able to nd the proper tire pressure on the
inside of your drivers side door. Once youre sure your tire pressure
is appropriate, make a note to check again later in the winter. Cold
air will cause the air in your tires to compress and may cause your
tires to lose pressure.
* Check your brakes. Your brakes will work harder once the icy
conditions of winter set in. Make sure they are up to the task by
bringing your vehicle in to your mechanic for a thorough brake
inspection.
* Wash and wax your car at a professional car wash. Putting your
car through the car wash during the sloppiest season of the year
may seem a strange idea but a thorough wash can remove harm-
ful compounds that may cause damage when mixed with sand and
road salt. Experts from the International Carwash Association also
recommend a coat of wax for an extra layer of protection from the
elements. Besides protecting your car, youll also be protecting the
environment. Professional car washes can save up to 20 percent of
the amount of water youd use by washing your car at home. They
do this by treating and reusing their water, rather than releasing toxic
chemicals and grime into the storm drains, which can often occur
when you wash your car yourself. You can learn more
about the environmental benets of a professional car wash
at washwithwatersavers.com.
* Check uids. Its good practice to stay on top of uids
such as oil, windshield washer or transmission uid. But
in the winter, no uid is more important than your coolant
because, if youre out of coolant, youre out of heat. Your
owners manual will tell you how much coolant you need
as well and provide the correct blend. Its also never a bad
idea to keep an additional bottle of coolant in your car for
emergencies.
* Test your battery. A lack of coolant will stop your
heater from working and so will a dead battery. Before you
head out this winter, be sure your battery is working prop-
erly. No one wants to be stranded by the side of the road
with a dead battery and, in the cold winter months, being
stranded could be dangerous.
* Check your wipers. You checked the wiper uid along
with your other uids but dont forget the wipers them-
selves. Replace old wiper blades and make sure to have a
reservoir full of wiper uid.
* Winter emergency kit. Sometimes all the preparation in the
world cant prevent a winter emergency. If you nd yourself stranded
by the side of the road, a winter survival kit can be very helpful.
Include an ice scraper/brush, extra blankets or clothes - including
hats and gloves - snacks and bottled water and a rst aid kit. A small
shovel can come in handy if you get stuck and a bag of cat litter can
be used to provide needed traction for your tires.
Getting your vehicle ready for winter while temperatures are still
mild is a proactive approach to preventive maintenance that helps
ensure safety, reliability and fewer unexpected repairs when severe
winter weather strikes. By planning ahead you can ensure that your
family and your car will be in for a smooth ride all winter long.
Extend the Life
of Your Vehicle
(BPT) - As temperatures dip, its important to pre-
pare your car for harsh winter weather. Not only
can the elements be hard on your vehicle, but the
chemicals that are used to ght the elements such
as road salt and chemical compounds to melt ice
are as well. Being prepared and knowing how to
take care of your vehicle can help you avoid costly
repairs and will extend the life of your vehicle.
Step 1: Check your windshield wipers
You never think about the condition of your
windshield wipers until they dont work properly
in a rain or a heavy snow fall. Rule of thumb is
that you should change your wiper blades every
six months. This will ensure you have the neces-
sary vision on the road to drive safely even in less
than ideal weather conditions.
Step 2: Protect your engine
You may not think about whats under the hood
of your vehicle during the winter months, but pro-
tecting your engine and the components that make
your vehicle run is important. Premium synthetic
lubricant manufacturer Royal Purple recommends
using Purple Ice, a year-round radiator conditioner
that will provide corrosion protection and is fully
compatible with antifreeze. A single bottle will
treat a radiator for 30,000 miles when mixed with
antifreeze to maintain maximum performance.
Step 3: Emergency road kit
Even if you take the best care of your vehicle, in
some instances you cannot avoid a breakdown or
incident when youre on the road. Take the time
to pack an emergency kit that you can keep stored
in your truck. It could be a lifesaver if you have
to put it in use. Include a: ashlight, batteries,
blanket, snacks, water, gloves, boots, rst aid kit,
ice scraper/snow brush, jumper cables, road ares,
white towel or window sign to indicate you need
help.

Pledging to bring a new generation of scally responsible leadership
to Congress, State Representative Marilinda Garcia has led
paperwork to run for the Republican nomination in New Hampshires
Second Congressional District. A four-term member of the New
Hampshire House of Representatives, Garcia has a strong record of
supporting economic development, the strengthening of local control
and choice in education and the full repeal of ObamaCare.
I look at Washington, DC and am tired of the dysfunction. Elected
ofcials are supposed to be public servants committed to putting the
needs of the country rst, not self-aggrandizing politicians making
promises they dont intend to keep, said Garcia.
I simply cannot stand by while our state continues to be hurt by
an overreaching federal government that is recklessly spending our
country into debt, punishing entrepreneurship and taking away our
freedoms.
If we want to solve our countrys problems, we have to change the
kind of people we send to Washington and thats why Im running for
Congress, said Garcia.
Marilinda is focused on removing obstacles to business
development and job creation in the Granite State, strengthening
education opportunities for children, and working towards patient-
centered reforms that actually drive down the cost of health care.
The Presidents top-down, government-knows-best health care
law is causing a great deal of pain for thousands of New Hampshire
families, with more to come as the mandates take effect.
I will work to replace this expensive ObamaCare mess with real,
bottom-up reforms that take power out of the hands of politicians and
put power into the hands of consumers, said Garcia.
Marilinda Garcia is a life-long New Hampshire resident and a four-
term member of the state House of Representatives. A graduate of
Tufts University, the New England Conservatory of Music and Harvard
University, Marilinda works in education and cyber-security.
New Hampshires Second Congressional District is one of the most
politically competitive seats in the country, having changed parties
three times since 2006 (in 2006, 2010, and 2012).

At 4:42 p.m. Saturday, November 16, reghters were
alerted by a box alarm to an appliance re at the Burger
King Restaurant at 224 Central Street. Fireghters from
the Central and Burns Hills Stations, manning two engines
and a ladder truck, responded to the scene. No signs of a

the building, a sprinkler in the kitchen area was found
activated which had extinguished a re in a cooking unit.
Fireghters quickly determined the re had not
extended from the area of the cooking unit and they shut
down the sprinkler system. Smoke ejectors were used to
clear the smoke from the building and reghters assisted
restaurant employees remove water from the building.
