Philip Mantle Hibbert passed
away on January 27, 2014, at
the age of 63 in the Brigham and
Womens Hospital in Boston, MA,
with his wife and brother at his
side.
He was a person with great
expertise in structuring and
organizing, having a talent in
understanding and managing real
life as well as rather abstract things,
while being gentle and polite, an
example of service to others and great patience at the same
time. His great lifelong interest in science, literature and
music inuenced our lives. He was a wonderful husband,
brother, uncle, friend, colleague and neighbor. He will be
greatly missed.
Following his LDS mission to Germany, he studied for
many years at the institute for Languages and Cultures of
the Near East at the University of Heidelberg in Germany
and has throughout the years done many translations
of Assyrian, Sumerian and Akkadian texts - taken from
cuneiform clay tablets.
As an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ
of Latter-day Saints (Mormon), he served in many ward
leadership positions, supported and loved the members
of his ward. He enjoyed spending as much time as he
could in the Boston Temple. Phil had a rm testimony of
the reality of Jesus Christ and strived to get yet closer. Phil
married the love of his life Gabriele on June 13, 1972, and
again on September 14, 2012. Theirs is a truly great love
story.
Phil always expressed a happy greeting and thank you
and was an innately positive person despite his long
suffering. He leaves behind his wife, his brothers Kim and
Clint and their families.
He was preceded in death by his parents Julian and Alice
Hibbert and his oldest brother Wynn.
Burial took place at the Holladay Memorial Park, 4900
Memory Grove Lane in Salt Lake City, UT on February 6.
A memorial service will be held at 11 a.m. on Saturday,
February 15, at 110 Concord Street in Nashua.

The teachers at Alvirne High School who facilitate the Scholastic
Read 180 Program were most appreciative when the Hudson Lions
Club donated money to replace microphones and earphones that are
no longer in working order for use in this program.
The program is designed to help students improve their reading
skills so they can be more successful in other classes. The program
has a specic curriculum, part of which requires students to access
a computer program that reinforces reading, spelling and uency.
Once accessing the computer, the students need to listen and record
which is why it is crucial to have properly functioning equipment
that will contribute to the students success. There are 12 computers
used for this program. Through the
donation from the Hudson Lions
Club, seven stick microphones
and ten sets of earphones were
purchased to replace the broken
equipment.

Alvirnes Family and Consumer Science Club Plans Busy Spring
by Laurie Jasper
Alvirne High Schools Family and Consumer
Science Club (FACS) has had a busy year so
far and is looking ahead to spring. Under the
guidance of Joan Blanchard, Alvirnes FACS
teacher, the group of volunteers meets Thursdays
after school to plan and organize. Most of the
things get done outside of meetings. We do what
we can during free periods, making posters and
putting them up, said Joan.
Lee denim day at Alvirne is a popular event
the FACS Club sponsors each year in October.
Teachers pay to wear jeans on that day, to raise
money for breast cancer research. We set up a
display case with in memory or in honor cards,
and that case is lled at the end, said Joan.
This year, as in past years, the club made pans
of apple crisp for Hudson Fish and Game Clubs
annual Thanksgiving dinner, using apples donated
by the GFWC Hudson Community Club.
At Christmas, the club adopted a family through
St. Vincent DePaul Society, in conjunction with
Alvirnes National Honor
Society. Club member Kayla
Gendreau, a senior, said, We
helped a family of seven, we put
together a Christmas tree with
wishes on it (from the family),
and the teachers take the wishes.
There was enough money left
over to buy groceries and gifts
cards.
The annual coat drive, from
Thanksgiving through Christmas,
collected over 120 coats this
year, as well as countless
sweatshirts and other cold
weather items. The FACS Club
washed and organized them,
then distributed them to Caties
Closet, local refugee families
and other places in need.
As many know, Caties Closet
is a non-prot organization that
collects clothing and accessories
through donations and distributes them to the
growing number of Caties Closet locations in
schools in the Merrimack Valley area. Students in
need are able to shop the closet for free.
Caties Closet was established in memory of
Catie Bisson of Lowell, MA, who died in 2010
at the age of 20 after a life-long battle with
Loeys Dietz Syndrome, a rare disease that affects
connective tissue. Alvirne is home to a branch of
Caties Closet.
FACS Clubs next big undertaking is for the
Cinderella Project. From now through April, the
group will collect, organize and deliver donated,
gently used prom dresses. Some of those dresses
will remain at Alvirnes Caties Closet, while the
rest will be distributed to the New Hampshire
Cinderella Project. As you recall, Cinderella
couldnt attend the ball because she had nothing
to wear, until her Fairy Godmother arrived and
transformed her into a beautiful princess for the
evening. Proms are expensive, and all young
ladies should have the opportunity to attend if
they wish, without concern. Prom dresses are
usually only worn once, and then relegated to the
back of the closet. FACS Club is asking for you to
be someones Fairy Godmother and donate prom
gowns to their cause. Last year, over 50 gowns
were collected. Gowns may be dropped off in
Alvirnes main ofce during school hours.
During last weeks meeting, the ve members
of FACS Club in attendance-sophomore Jenn
Thompson, freshman Sondra Casanera, senior
Kayla Gendreau, senior Deanna Hamilton, senior
Doreen Doucette - all spoke of other ways they
volunteer in their community and shared their
future plans. Their efforts go beyond the club. All
plan a lifelong commitment to service. Its great
to volunteer, its a part of our life, shared Kayla.
Joan Blanchard and members of the FACS Club show some of the prom dresses donated to Caties Closet.

Hello Mr. Snowman
by Doug Robinson
You cannot miss it. Mr. Snowman stands at least 13 feet high and was the creation of Joe
Bradley, owner of Bradley Motors on Lowell Road in Hudson.
I made the snowman from the snow after clearing our parking lot. I used my tractor to
keep stacking the snow and then I sculpted the snowman. I was just having fun and I am glad
that those driving by are having fun too, commented Joe Bradley
Alexandra Maniotis, John Zubretsky and baby Ella (who
will be born in two weeks) give Mr. Snowman a hug as
they enjoy and celebrate their new beginnings.
Tis is the biggest snowman I have ever seen.
You can see his face while driving from both directions.
Tis is really great, commented John.

community and immediately earn more money so he felt it was
important to support this contract. Randy Brownrigg asked how it
is determined how much each employee gets when a contract is
passed. Will everyone get a raise and how much? Coutu said all
employees would get a raise based on a wage schedule within a
contract. Brownrigg asked about selectmen giving a raise this year
to a non-union employee without a vote of the people. Coutu said,
yes, selectmen did vote to give a raise.
Budget committee member John Drabinowicz spoke in favor of
the contract, noting that he is not in favor of union contracts. He
explained that he was voting in favor of these contracts because
there were signicant cost benets to the town because the
contracts allowed for changing health plans. Drabinowicz urged
everyone to vote in favor of all the contracts on the ballot.
Warrant article ve is for the labor contract for Hudson support
staff, who have had no salary increases for four years. Selectman
Ted Luszey pointed out that these are the lowest paid employees in
town. The contract does add a step, but also has the insurance plan
changes that would benet the town by offsetting costs for benets.
Warrant article six is for the contract for the re ghters, who
have been without a salary increase for ve years. The contract
provides for a 2.75 percent salary increase and, as with the other
contracts, includes health insurance concessions which means that
the contract has a net zero impact on the tax rate.
As the morning moved along, motions to restrict reconsideration
later in the meeting passed and audience members slowly drifted
out the door.
Warrant article seven provides for a 2.75 percent increase for the
tax collector and warrant article eight provides for a 2.75 percent
increase for non-union town employees, which includes: the town
administrator, both police and re chiefs, the nance director, road
agent, IT director, recreation director and executive assistant to the
board of selectmen.
Once again Drabinowicz stood to support the salary increase
warrant articles and got the biggest chuckle of the day when he
said, Hearing my support for these contracts, people are probably
wondering who is wearing the Drabinowicz suit?
Warrant article nine is for the operating budget in the amount of
$23,822,277 with a default budget amount of $23,329,646. Jon
Maltz, Chairman of the Budget Committee, spoke to this warrant
article.
Hudson Trustee Len Lathrop accompanied by Trustee Ed
Duchesne with Trustee Harry Schibanoff helping televise the
meeting moved to amend the operating budget by adding $15,000
for trustee investment agent and showed a chart to illustrate how
much could be earned by doing this. Lathrop explained that state
law had changed allowing for this, but budget development was
well underway. This motion had support from selectmen.
Board of Selectmen Chairman Rick Maddox said, The trustees
saw a way for the town to make more money off of its investments.
Trustees came to the selectmen and explained we as a town should
not wait another year just because the budget was where it was
in the cycle. I applaud their thinking outside the budget box and
putting the money request on the oor of deliberative session. If we
can get $100,000 more for spending $15,000, I for one are there.
Coutu agreed and said, The trustees presented a plan which
would require them to spend an additional $15,000 for an
investment rm to better invest our monies held in trust. I have
always lived by the adage that you have to spend money to make
money. Though this may not be true of public sector general funds,
funds held in trust should be invested at the maximum rate of
interest available. Based on their research they believe, as I, that
the additional $15,000 will yield two to three times more than we
are presently receiving in interest. If we are presently receiving
approximately $30,000, and we could increase that to near
$90,000, the $15,000 will be well spent.
After the audience agreed with the motion and it passed, Lathrop
said, The trustees thank the people at the deliberative session for
supporting the budget increase. The trustees continue to work to
achieve the best return on investment for the capital reserve funds
and trust funds we oversee for the town. Adding, this small amount
to the budget at the deliberative allowed the return on investment to
be increased as soon as July 1, 2014. The operating budget will be
$23,837,277.
Stuart Schneiderman moved to reduce public works streets
overtime by $50,000. He had a lengthy argument with several
statements about lack of management.
Although Coutu seconded the amendment, he later said he did
so because he wanted to hear the debate. However, he objected to
the discussion which used three words, misused, over used and not
managed. I resent this and those terms especially reected upon
that department head.
Nadeau pointed out that snow storms do not come between 8 and
5 and overtime is used to plow roads.
I cannot tell you how strongly I oppose this amendment, said
Drabinowicz. This is a heavy handed attempt to put the cart before
the horse rather than this heavy handed approach. He said he
knows streets get plowed and we work with a road agent. If there
is a problem with the management of overtime, we should have a
warrant article to study the use of overtime.
Maltz said, The alternative to overtime is more employees so
we hope overtime is managed. He said hiring enough people to
manage the department 24 hours a day seven days a week would
cost a lot more so he urged defeat of the warrant article.
Schneiderman said he was looking for transparency and not
accusing anyone of malfeasance. All I wanted to do was open up
the books.
The amendment failed.
There were questions about the senior center and about the skate
park, which has been closed by selectmen.
Altogether there are 17 warrant articles on the town ballot,
including a non-binding petitioned warrant article. For the rst time,
both the sewer fund operating budget and the water fund operating
budget are being presented by themselves. Previously, these two
budgets had been rolled into the general operating budget.
Warrant articles 12 and 13 support revolving accounts for Hudson
seniors and Hudson Cable TV. The cable TV gets a franchise fee
from the cable provider and the franchise fee is used to support
community television. By using revolving funds, funds collected
can cross from one scal year into another.
Article 12 provides a way for Hudson seniors to pay for trips
and activities. Currently, no tax dollars are used to support senior
activities or trips; participants pay the money paid. This allows
seniors to make payments for more expensive trips and to ensure
that the money will remain available to them.
At the end of the meeting, Coutu said, I was very pleased with
the reception we received for the warrant articles and have a great
faith that people will realize that we need to begin to invest in our
employees and stop the revolving door of having employees use our
town as a training ground for other communities. Voting will be on
March 11 at the community center between 7 a.m. and 8 p.m.

Thumbs Up? Thumbs Down? Thumbs Up? Thumbs Down?
As the town and school
board election approaches
on March 11, our past
practice is that candidate
endorsements will be
excluded from the Thumbs
arena, but will be accepted
as Letters to the Editor.
Readers have the right to
know who is supporting
or not supporting elected
ofcials. Those running
for ofce are given a
complimentary candidate
announcement of 400
words or less with a photo,
and one Letter to the
Editor, 600 words or less, to
address their platform for
election. There is no limit
on third party support for
issues and/or candidates,
but submissions are limited
to one submission per
contributor per week.
We realize that there are
some included this week as
our readers had not been
advised before this issue.
Thumbs down to Hudson
school superintendent for
his funny and changing
numbers. We never get the
same story twice using your
facts and gures.
Thumbs up - way up
to LMS Cathy Schneider
for her tireless work in our
community. She spent all
of last wknd. making sure
that Super Bowl Subs ran
smoothly and was very
successful. I hope that the
Parents and Staff of LMS
realize what an asset she
is to the school and our
children. Go Cathy!
Thumbs up. Thumbs
way up to Hunter! I want to
know how much he weighs.
Its nice to know you love
your grandchild!
Thumbs up. Thumbs way up to CVS Pharmacy
for announcing that by October 1st they will no
longer be selling tobacco products! Pharmacies
shouldnt be selling these cancer sticks to begin
with.
Thumbs down to the Hudson plow team. You
do a great job plowing the streets, I appreciate
that. But this is the 4th storm in a row that you
have completely smashed our mailbox off the
post. Can you please stop hitting it? Please!
Thumbs down. Thumbs way down to the
snow plowing in Hudson this year. Another
snowstorm and my mailbox taken down yet again.
The 4th time this year. It is well off the road
and has reectors ... really no excuse. Just drive
up and down Gowing Road and look at all the
smashed mailboxes. You guys are really doing a
poor job this year.
Thumbs down to those who blame others in
Hudson schools.
Thumbs up to voters for nally realizing that
the democratic/far left liberal system is worse
than any republican system in history. Good
people assume the best in people and assumed
that liberals had good intentions of helping. They
now realize that they are far more self serving,
destructive, uneducated, lazy people that want to
live off the backs of those that have a conscience
and have destroyed all the things that were good
about the USA.
Thumbs up/Thumbs down. Litcheld
conservatives are the people that support your
lazy, non-working, uneducated, non-tax paying,
way of life. Instead of taking and not earning, and
promoting the downward spiral of this country,
why not wake up and realize that the word
conservative means, a person that works and
pays taxes, and does not want to support the ones
that do not want to work and pay taxes.
Thumbs down to the boat captain in Hudson.
People thought the Titanic was wonderful too.
Saving money by cutting
corners is great, until you hit an
iceberg.
Thumbs up to Hunter.
While I am sure he is an
adorable toddler, his weight is
of no interest to anyone but his
parents, and pediatrician.
Thumbs up to Mrs.
Johnstone. She is truly amazing!
We are so lucky to have her at
GMS!
Thumbs up. I just wanted
to say thanks to the crew who
plowed on Burns Hill Rd. in Hudson. This is
the rst time that my pup and I could walk on
the road without the fear of getting picked off by
passing cars or trying to climb up a snow bank. It
was such a pleasure to walk more than my own
street which is a dead end. Again thanks!
Thumbs up to the Hudson Rec girls basketball,
and a special thumbs up to Sting for their
undefeated season. You did a great job girls!
Thumbs down to the Litcheld Liberal who
suggested that all conservatives move to another
town. Have things sunk to the depths where
liberals demand that people who advocate scal
responsibility; small, effective government;
lower tax burdens; and personal freedom and
responsibility be banished from
their presence? When NY Gov.
Cuomo said something similar
about conservatives in his state,
it sounded like the ravings of an
ideological extremist. To learn that
our neighbors think the same way is
staggering.
Thumbs up to Nancy Woods,
Alician Otis, Victoria Chamberlin,
the students and all other who
made CHS ski Club a great season!
Thumbs up to Coach Carl for
an awesome season coaching
the Hudson Junior Boys Celtics!
Great job and thanks for your
commitment to the kids of
Hudson.
Thumbs down to snowmobilers
in Litcheld for ignoring no
snowmobiling signs and going
around fences to ride on our
beautiful elds. No one invited
you, so stay off! Parents, do you
know where your kids are riding? I
hope your machine breaks down,
and you have to walk home. We
will be happy to call the Police for
you.
Thumbs up to the LMS seventh
grader who has been helping with
the girls lacrosse clinics. Hope to
see you on the lacrosse eld with
a CHS uniform on in a couple of
years!
Thumbs up to the Hudson
Rec Basketball Senior Boys
Undefeated Championship Lakers!
Great job by all of the players
this season! Effort, teamwork and
sportsmanship payoff.
Thumbs down to the LPD. They
want 2 new cruisers, maybe they
should think of actually responding
to calls, kinda like when my
window was shot out and I called
to make a report. They never sent
an ofcer. Id rather pay for a
village idiot to stand on 3A and yell
at trafc.
Thumbs up to Bruce Atwood! It
was refreshing to read his thorough
and thoughtful response to another contributors
recent inaccurate reporting (deaths attributed
to climate change legislation in Britain). His
research demonstrated that the number was
taken out of context, resulting in a dramatic
overstatement of deaths. He did not minimize
the concern for climate change,
but instead put the information
in perspective. We should all
be more aware of how awed,
emotional reporting on any topic
can distort the facts and adversely
affect our understanding of it.
Thumbs up to Talia for taking
it upon herself to get Girls
Lacrosse at CMS. Thumbs up
Emily, the LMS seventh grader,
for volunteering to help get the
high school girls who have never
played before, ready for the
season. You maturity, lacrosse
skills, and teaching ability are
greatly appreciated.
Thumbs down. It took Bush
eight years to increase the debt by
more than 4 trillion dollars. The
dear leader in the White House
only took ve years to increase the debt more than
8 trillion dollars! What a country!
Thumbs down. Prediction for the uninformed:
When Sheehan comes out of hiding, guess who
will be by her side, none other than Hilary What
difference does it make Clinton! You will be
lucky to even see the Senator. This Senator voted
99% of the time for Obama policies and now as a
net worth over three million, which includes the
income that her husband makes as a lobbyist in
Washington, DC.
Thumbs down. It looks like the unemployment
rate is going down! Could it be that so many
people have stopped looking and after a period of
time they are not counted? The Bureau of Labor
Statistics uses a term called U3 which does not
count the people that have completely dropped
out of the work force. If U6 is used, which counts
all unemployed, the true number for January 2014
using U6 is 12.7 percent.
Thumbs up to the guy in the plaid jacket for
stopping by at Saturdays deliberative session. We
know he is keeping tabs on things from the other
side.
Thumbs up the guy in the plaid jacket. It
would have been really good if he had made a
motion to take the money out of the budget line
item for the selectmens pay and move it to the
sewer fund.
Thumbs up to the Red Riding Hood display
at Rogers Library. Its charming and delightful.
Thank you for sharing.
Thumbs down. I was thoroughly disappointed
with the turnout at the Deliberative Session. The
school teachers and everything, they got together
and they packed a whole hall, 95% of the people
there were for the school budgets. What a joke.
Taxpayers in Hudson do not be fooled by this.
They are eecing your pockets. Please vote no
in March for these Warrant Articles. Theyre just
gonna take ya to the cleaners. Keep that tax rate
down. And kudos to the Selectmen for a good
job.
Thumbs down. Double thumbs down to the
Hudson School Board and the Superintendent.
You have absolutely no authority to use Hudson
school vehicles, personnel, or fuel to bus students
to the Community Center on voting day. This is a
agrant abuse that reeks of desperation to pass a
budget that will cause severe nancial hardship
to people already suffering from the depression
and the fallout from Obamacare. The average
increase is $800/month to the median household.
Thats 66 dollars alone for the school taxes. Are
you gonna offer this bus service to the senior
citizens, or the people who have to work, or
deliver absentee ballots to them? Seniors, not the
students, just the senior citizens, youve already
had a ride. Call the HSB and Mr. Lane, they
havent heard us yet.
Thumbs down to the Litcheld Selectmen and
School Board. Are you out of your mind? In this
economy, isnt your job to try to keep costs down
and lower taxes? We are mostly middle-class and
retired seniors living on xed income. We are not
Hollis, and if you want to be like Hollis, move to
Hollis. You are not representing our interests.
Thumbs down. In response to last week,
being both a dunce and staring the part, would
be to follow in the Republican footprints. Tell
me if Im wrong. The Bush administration ended
in hardships. Republicans havent given any
help to recover. The Republicans had a lot to do
with discontinuing extra security in places like
Benghazi. Republicans shut down government;
Republicans block extended unemployment
benets, Republicans are connected with words
like terrorism, sabotage, treason, blackmail,
extortion, and stupidity at a cost of 24 billion
dollars. Now they are against John McCain, who
is really ill-informed by stopping programs that
help children to eat.

Campbell Out-Hustles Somersworth, 50-35
by Phillip Nichols
On February 7, the Campbell Cougars entered the
Den with a record of 12-1 and riding a four game
winning streak to play the Somersworth Hilltoppers,
who were looking to end this streak. At the end of
the day, Campbell would prevail, behind the leading
scorers Hannah Neild with 12 points and Kylee Julia
with 11 points.
At the start of the game, it was close. The Cougars
elected to play man-to-man defense, while the
Hilltoppers played zone. Campbell seemed to move
the ball around effectively and wait for the open
shots. Likewise, Somersworth played well against
the smothering man-to-man defense of Campbell.
Both teams basically played to a tie at the end
of the rst quarter, with the score 8-10. The game
would stay tight and the Hilltoppers held the lead
until about midway through the second period.
Campbell took its rst lead in the second quarter
at the 4:54 mark, 13-12. The lead changed hands
again with 3:41 seconds left in the second half
when Somersworths junior Maddie Osbon hit a
three pointer from the left side of the court, giving
Somersworth an 18-17 advantage.
The Cougars Hannah Neild would keep them in
the game by creating turnovers and making great
decisions with the basketball. As the pace picked up
late in the second quarter, turnovers began to take its
toll on the Hilltoppers.
Campbells defense began clamping down and
allowed the Cougars to go into the locker room with
a 23-18 lead.
In the third quarter, the Cougars began attacking
the painted area of the court offensively. Both teams
battled for the loose balls by diving on the oor.
Still, the turnovers by Somersworth began to cause
problems.
With 5:40 seconds left in the third quarter, the
Cougars put on their patented press and began
creating even more turnovers. Campbell managed
to increase its lead to eight points.
Somersworth eventually called a time-out to settle
the team. By the end of the third quarter, the score
was 38-25.
Prior to the fourth quarter, Somersworths Head
Coach Michael Francoeur told his team to keep their
feet and stressed that they were still within striking
distance. The Cougars Coach Robert Allen told his
team to keep pressing and grabbing rebounds.
Campbell kept up the pressure and created an
11-point lead with just over six minutes left in
the game. However, the Hilltoppers continued to
battle, and with 4:13 seconds left in the game, the
Hilltopers had cut the Cougar lead from 11 points to
two points.
The Hilltoppers called a time-out and the coach
told them to continue to be aggressive on defense.
Clinging to the lead, Campbell began to press
the Hilltoppers to force time off the clock and the
Hilltoppers were forced to foul the Cougars after the
Cougars got the lead back to 10 points. The Cougars
went on to win by a score of 50-35.
Campbell pushes their win streak to ve in a row.

The Tax Return - The Net
Investment Income Tax
W.F.Boutin EA - Total Tax Solutions LLC
This week we will look at the new tax for some individuals based
upon net investment income.
Net Investment Income consists of interest, dividends, capital gains,
rent and royalty income, non-qualied annuities and businesses that
are passive activities to a taxpayer. Once again, the threshold amounts
for this tax are similar to those for the Additional Tax on Wages that we
discussed in the last article. The threshold for ling statuses single and
head of household is $200,000, $250,000 for Married Filing Joint and
Qualied Widower with a dependent child and $125,000 for Married
Filing Separate.
This threshold level is compared to the AGI (adjusted gross income)
that is found on the income tax return and under certain circumstances
income that was excluded form gross income must be added back into
the AGI to arrive at the MAGI (modied adjusted gross income) .
MAGI's exist for most tax deductions and credits that have phase-out
limits. The types of income that is required to be added back to the AGI
on the return varies from the rules for each particular deduction/credit.
In many cases the MAGI and AGI are the same.
Once you have calculated your modied adjusted gross income, you
must calculate your net investment income. Net investment income is
gross investment income reduced by deductions that are allocable to
that income. Deductions may include investment interest expense,
investment advisory and brokerage fees, and other expenses related
directly to the income in question.
The new Form 8960 is used to calculate the net investment income
tax. First subtract the modied adjusted gross income from the
appropriate threshold amount for your ling status. If the threshold
amount is greater than your MAGI, no additional tax is due. If the
threshold amount is less than your MAGI, then compare the result of
that subtraction to your calculated net investment income. The smaller
amount of either your MAGI over the threshold or your net investment
income is then multiplied by 3.8%. This will be your net investment tax
added to the income tax return.
This tax is added to the return after certain credits are subtracted from
the return's taxable income therefore certain credits will not reduce the
amount owed. This tax is also subject to estimated tax payments,
therefore planning is required by the taxpayer in some circumstances
to either increase tax withholding from wages with a W4 or to make
quarterly estimated tax payments to offset a balance due.
NOTE: While we are on the subject of investment income, taxpayers
should be aware that the capital gains tax rates for long term gains and
qualied dividends will increase from 15% to 20% for individuals with
high incomes. The threshold where this increase will take place is at
$400,000 for single, $425,000 for head of household, $450,000 for
married ling joint or qualied widower and $225,000 for the married
ling single status.

Campbell Cougars Triumphant Over
Mascenic Vikings in Girls Basketball, 58-35
Lady Broncos Split on the Road
Junior guard Kylee Julia (23) starts the fast break for
Campbell as Mascenics Liz Martel gives chase.
by Phillip Nichols
The Campbell Cougars came onto their home court a heavy
favorite against the Mascenic Vikings on February 4; 11-1 versus
2-8.
Campbell opened the game with a zone press, while Mascenic
seemed content to play a basic zone defense. Campbells
swarming defense proved to be difcult for Mascenic to penetrate
in the rst quarter.
Led by the Cougars senior Alexandra Trevains eight points, the
Cougars got out to a 16-8 lead by the end of the rst quarter.
The second and third quarter, offensively, belonged to Campbell
as well. Freshman forward Hannah Fabiano scored 20 of her
game high 24 points in the second and third quarter.
Defensively, the Cougars played very well, only allowing a total
of 35 points to be scored against them in the game.
At times, it appeared that Mascenic had gured out the press
that was being applied and they were receiving instructions from
their coach. He could be heard telling his team to use back cuts
if the defender was overplaying them.
However, just as fast as he would adjust, Campbell would
re-adjust. This proved to be too much and Mascenic ended up
falling to Campbell by a nal score of 58-35.
With this victory, Campbell moved to 12-1 and remains at the
top of the standings for NHIAA in Division III.
by Sue LaRoche
Alvirne continued their winning ways with good teamwork
when they travelled to Timberlane on Friday, February 7 and
walked away with a 69-31 victory. Everyone on the Broncos
bench contributed to the victory with Brittney Lambert leading
the way with 15 points followed by Veronica Moceri with eight.
Marissa Sweeney, Emily Barry and Nicole Teague tallied seven
points apiece, followed by Tori LaRoche with six and Katie
Bellomo and Amanda Wetmore with ve each. Sandi Purcell
had four points. Sam Ratte and Jess Baker had two points each.
Venessa Jacques contributed one point. The only Bronco not
to score was sitting on the bench with an injury, junior Kaycee
Carbone.
Unfortunately for Alvirne, Trinity was not the same caliber of
team as Timberlane; they handed Alvirne a 66-55 defeat. Alvirne
found themselves down 19-12 at the end of the rst quarter, and
cut the lead to 33-27 at the half. Even though the Broncos never
had a lead in this contest they certainly made it interesting when
they tied the score at 39 with four minutes to play in the third
quarter. Unfortunately, they could not sustain the comeback and
fell to 51-44 after three quarters of play. The Broncos had to resort
to fouling the Pioneers in the nal quarter and they were up to the
task hitting 10 of 14 attempts to put this one away.
Veronica Moceri had the hot hand from behind the arc hitting
four three-point shots and leading the team with 16 points. Sandi
Purcell had 11 points followed by Kaycee Carbone, Brittney
Lambert and Tori LaRoche with six points each.
Kaycee Carbone also ripped down 14 boards
for Alvirne.
This loss brings the Broncos record to 8-4
in NHIAA Division I girls basketball and 10-5
overall. The Broncos will host Londonderry on
February 17. They will have their nal home
game of the season at the traditional senior
night tribute on Friday, February 21.

a tough Hollis-Brookline wrestling team, but
managed to pull out the victory in the nal bout
of the day, when senior Connor Perry pinned
his opponent, giving the Cougars the victory.
Earlier in the meet, the Cougars trailed the
