Four months ago, a public hearing on a land-use moratorium turned into a three-hour public debate on the merits or detriments of the French-American School of New York (FASNY) building a campus on the grounds of the former Ridgeway Country Club in White Plains.
After Tuesday night's Common Council meeting, a public hearing on a scoping document related to a proposed open-space recreation district turned into a similar situation, though on a slightly smaller scale than in March. The Common Council chambers were full, while they were overflowing in March, and the atmosphere was slightly less adversarial, but many of the speakers—including members of the Gedney neighborhood association who oppose the plan and consultants and an attorney representing FASNY—spoke on FASNY's plans to build a campus on the Ridgeway property.
FASNY, which hopes to unite its three current campuses, in Larchmont, Mamaroneck, and Scarsdale, bought the Ridgeway land in January.
In addition to the Ridgeway property, the proposed open-space recreation district encompasses the Westchester Hills and Fenway golf clubs and certain parcels along the Hutchinson River Parkway. [The full scoping document and map are available for viewing at the city's website at cityofwhiteplains.com.]
The scoping document calls for a study to be done on possible amendments to the city's Zoning Ordinance regarding areas—including the Ridgeway property—shown as "parks and open space" on the 1997 Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map.
The Common Council designated itself as the lead agency for the environmental review in June. The scoping document's guidelines call for various "impact issues" (traffic, visual, stormwater management, and others) to be identified and presented with "(1) a discussion of existing conditions; (2) potential significant impacts associated with the Proposed Action; and (3) measures designed to mitigate the identified impacts."
Terence Guerriere, president of the Gedney Association, noted that the city's Comprehensive Plan calls for golf courses on the areas in question, and that if golf courses are not viable, the "least-dense zoning" should be advanced, which the Plan says would be three-quarter-acre residential lots.
"Importantly," Guerriere said, "the plan does not include, for these properties, any clustering of buildings, no residential clustering, and certainly no non-residential clustering."
Michael Zarin, a White Plains-based attorney representing FASNY, said that many of the proposed zoning changes are "patently illegal" and are clearly intended to prevent FASNY from being able to, for example, construct ball fields on the property. Setback requirements proposed in the zoning changes, if applied to existing public or private schools in the city, would have prevented all of them, Zarin said, citing numbers from a review that his firm conducted on existing schools. No public or private school in White Plains "can even come close," he said, to meeting the proposed standards. He questioned how the Council could even consider the changes "fair, practical, legal, or otherwise."
Diego Villareale, a project manager with Armonk-based John Meyer Consulting, and Graham Trelstad, a senior vice president and director of planning at White Plains-based AKRF, an environmental consulting firm, both spoke on behalf of FASNY and said that the proposed zoning changes unfairly target the school and are intended to prevent their plans.
"The FASNY proposal, as it currently stands," Villareale said, "is an example of a responsible proposal which complies with the current zoning while preserving over 60 acres of land and maintaining over 90 percent of the overall property in this purpose area."
Dan Seidel, a Gedney resident who is strongly opposed to having FASNY become a new neighbor of his, asked the Council for more time for the public to submit comments, and he called for further hydrology and soil studies. Seidel, an attorney, hinted that this issue is headed for State Supreme Court.
Written comments on the scoping study must be received by 5:00 p.m. on July 18 at the office of the White Plains City Clerk, 255 Main St., White Plains, NY 10601.

This past Sunday afternoon after my seventh surf session at as many spots in four days, I was beat but on a surfed-out high. I had taken the opportunity of a visit by my longtime friend Greg Tate, who is from Florida, to surf as much as possible during the recent swell.
On Thursday after picking up Greg at the airport, we enjoyed a quick but productive session at Sunset Cliffs. We then picked up my sons Israel and Daniel from school and headed to La Jolla Shores to take advantage of the southwest wind. The swell had just started to slam the coast with some great overhead and very hollow set waves.
On Friday morning Greg and I surfed 6-8' reef waves with just a couple of people out and then joined the boys for an afternoon session of beachbreak barrels. On Saturday we spent the day sampling the best of northern Baja and on Sunday we enjoyed two crunchy and consistent San Diego beachbreaks.
What became clear to me about this past swell is that due to its proximity to the Thanksgiving week run of surf, the crowds were a little less intense than they might have been if it had been opening week (with the exception of Swami's, which makes Lowers on a killer south swell in the middle of summer seem uncrowded).
The week's swell caused me to think about how to make the most of our seasonal gifts of waves.
- Surf the swell as much and often as possible. Really. Don't waste as much of your limited time and "surf capital" on the mediocre days. Use those days to get in shape and max out your surfing "punch card" (do I really need to explain this to anyone with a non-surfing spouse or partner) when the waves happen.
- Get in shape and stay in shape. As a 48-year old average surfer trying to stay relevant on a 6'6" Novak quad, I know that my only advantage is the amount of time I spend in the pool and in the gym. Exercise will pay off on the good days.
- Avoid the A-list spots. I heard multiple reports of crazy crowds at Swamis. There are dozens of "secondary" spots that have fewer crowds, more waves, and more rides for everyone. Unless you absolutely rip and have no problem paddle-battling dozens of your new best friends for waves, surf the mellower spots.
- Avoid the rush hour. At every spot in San Diego, especially the reefs and points, 75 percent of the crowd seems to wait for the exact moment when conditions should in theory be at their best. That means you can score more wave with a slight reduction in quality when conditions aren't so perfect.
- It is always better to surf than stand around the parking lot. I observed dozens of people hanging out and waiting until it got better to paddle out. But it was better at that moment and sometimes it got worse later.
- Surf a bigger wave board on bigger days. On about half my recent sessions I used my 7' Novak quad. On the above average days, having a slightly longer board helps while paddlng into set waves and making it down the line. However, that doesn't mean you should use a board that is appropriate for Waimea Bay or Todos.
- Be nice. That person you yell at for "ruining your session" might be the person who has to call 911 when your board hits you in the head. And please Mr. Very Angry Local—do you really need to scream at and threaten women? I mean seriously, dude.
So let's all pray for surf. For now, I'm back in the pool and the gym getting ready for this weekend and the next round of winter fun.

The Tonawanda News
Tonawanda News — I'm a cat person.
To be fair, there really aren't many pets I don't like. I can even deal with snakes, and once had every intention of adopting an iguana after I graduated from college. Ferrets are a hoot, and full of personality. (See page 1C in next Sunday's Tonawanda News.) Dogs are great.
But ... yeah, I'm a cat person. Maybe it's the independence combined with the cuddliness. I don't know. I've known cats from the aloof to the playful to the cozy, and I've liked them all.
With my family, most of the cats have been rescues, from the long-haired tabby kitten that just showed up on my parents' porch one morning (the likely descendant of farm cats, who grew into a beloved family pet) to my aunt's lovely calico, born to cats abandoned next a campground in my hometown.
They, of course, found wonderful homes. But I could never help wondering. What of the kittens who wandered into road instead of onto a cozy porch? How many of those abandoned with Patches weren't rescued to a warm home, but lived out their lives in the wild, often sick or injured ... or constantly producing more homeless kittens?
On Tuesday, SPCA of Niagara Director Amy Lewis spoke with the North Tonawanda council about options to dealing with a growing feral cat problem in the area. As an animal lover, I read the story in our paper with great interest in the process, from collecting data on where feral cats live in the city to obtaining grant money to spay and neuter the animals.
The conversation was started, in part, by the March discovery of about 50 stray or feral cats — flea-ridden, sometimes ill or antisocial, traumatized and scared — in a Roncroff Drive home. One fact of Lewis' comments about the situation stunned me.
Fifty cats ... and it might have all started with two.
"They were almost all orange," she told the council. "This could have been prevented."
Now, I know about the birds and bees. So do you, probably. It doesn't take much math to understand how this happened.
I'm going to say something about it. And I'm going to say it in italics, just so you know how very serious I am.
For crying out loud, people, spay or neuter your pets.
According to the ASPCA, the average number of litters a fertile cat produces is one to two a year (some sources say more); the average number of kittens is four to six per litter. Female cats can start going into heat as young as 4 months old. The math is simple.
How long did it take two cats to turn into 50? Not long at all. Imagine if it had continued.
But for some reason, that still doesn't seem to sink in with some people.
Maybe it's the "awwww, cute kittens!" factor. It's not difficult to understand that one. There aren't many critters that are cuter than a clumsy, playful kitten who hops around the house batting at paper bags and generally acting adorable. Who doesn't want more of those, right?
But kittens grow up to be cats, and far too many people think not only that grown cats are far less cute, but that it's completely acceptable to be irresponsible and toss them out to fend for themselves.
(Where they promptly make more kittens. Who turn into cats. Who make more ... well, you get the picture.)
And even if they find homes for them, that's however many homes unavailable for a shelter pet in need.
Or maybe it's the price. (Which falls under the category of "If you can't afford to take care of your pets, maybe you shouldn't have them," but that's beside the point.)
The Niagara SPCA is still working on its mobile spay and neuter program, but there are other options. Ask your veterinarian, or ask good ol' Dr. Google. For residents of Erie County, there's The Maddie's Spay/Neuter Project. Visit www.maddieseriecounty.org.
If you're truly a responsible pet owner, there are ways.
For the record, you can contact the Niagara SPCA at 731-4368 or firstname.lastname@example.com. Maybe you can help with their project. Heaven knows it's needed.
But at the very least, don't be part of the problem.Jill Keppeler is a writer for the Tonawanda News. She can be reached at email@example.com.

Always looking for a challenge, Pangaea River Rafting's future owners Brooke and David Lawrence set out on a 4,000-mile cross-country bike ride years ago. But tackling that endeavor only increased the duo's thirst for more. After years guiding rafting expeditions along the Clark Fork River near Missoula, Montana, they decided the most exciting challenge would be to start their own rafting company. So, in 1989, they bought a small company by the name of Pangaea Expeditions, which they later renamed Pangaea River Rafting. During that time they also got married, fittingly alongside the river.
Over the course of more than 20 years, Brooke and David have developed a series of programs that highlight the area's tourist attractions as well as draw locals out into their surrounding habitat. They direct rafting ventures boasting wine tastings, happy hours, bird watching, team building, and catfish cuddling.

Officials at the community college say the tuition increase was necessary, partly due to the lack of funding from the state of Illinois.
Harper College District 512 includes all or portions of the following communities:
Arlington Heights, Barrington, Barrington Hills, Buffalo Grove, Carpentersville, Deer Park, Des Plaines, Elk Grove Village, Fox River Grove, Hanover Park, Hoffman Estates, Inverness, Lake Barrington, Mount Prospect, North Barrington, Palatine, Prospect Heights, Rolling Meadows, Roselle, Schaumburg, South Barrington, Tower Lakes and Wheeling.

Many American Roman Catholics would like to see their church change. In mid-March, the Pew Research Center delivered this poll: 76% of U.S. Catholics countenance birth control; 59% want women as priests; 64% think priests should be allowed to marry.
We've been assured by Vatican watchers of all stripes that America's liberal Catholics are probably going to be disappointed in Pope Francis; the new pontiff, wrote John Allen in the National Catholic Reporter, is "unquestionably orthodox."

This fund's 36 percent loss that year was no doubt painful, but it was still less than those suffered by many of its peers. In2009, the fund came roaring back with an 84 percent gain. Meanwhile, its returns last year were good enough to land it in the top 11 percent of its Morningstar category. The fund has returned 21.03 percent over the past year and 11.19 percent over the past three years.
The fund is invested in financial companies of all sizes. While the majority of its holdings are large caps, it also has significant exposure to mid-cap and even small-cap names. As of the end of May, less than a quarter of its stock portfolio was invested in the United States. At the moment, some of its favorite countries include France, Singapore, and Switzerland. The fund's French picks, including BNP Paribas and AXA SA, have been paying off well in 2011. The fund's global diversification helps minimize the risks of what is often a volatile sector. The fund has returned 16.03 percent over the past five years and 10.15 percent over the past decade.
Investment Strategy
According to the fund's prospectus: "The Fund buys securities of companies in the financial services sector, such as banks, savings and loan associations (and other thrifts), mortgage banking companies, finance companies, insurance companies, securities/brokerage firms, asset management companies, securities exchanges, leasing companies and consumer and industrial finance companies, and other companies that are primarily engaged in providing financial services."
Role in Portfolio
Morningstar calls this fund a "specialty" holding.
Mark Lynch manages the fund.
Prudential Financial Services has an expense ratio of 1.33 percent.
Like all stock funds, this one comes with some risks.

Steelers DE Aaron Smith will miss the remainder of the season after tearing his triceps muscle during the team's Week Seven victory vs. the Dolphins, according to NFL.com.
Smith will undergo further tests on Monday, but is expected that the 12-year pro will be placed on injured reserve. Fellow linemen Brett Keisel, who missed the Miami game with a hamstring injury, Nick Eason and Ziggy Hood will likely see more playing time in the coming weeks. Practice squad players Steve McLendon and Doug Worthington may also be elevated to the 53-man roster.
The way we see it
Smith is not the high-profile defender that teammates Troy Polamalu and James Harrison are, but his value is clear. Heading into Week Four, Pro Football Weekly ran a feature about the Steelers' defense that stated in all Pittsburgh games since 2004, the team has allowed 4.4 yards per rush in games Smith didn't play in compared to only 3.5 yards a run in games where Smith suits up.

Associated Press
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Kevin Durant had 24 points and 11 rebounds, Kevin Martin scored 24 points and the Oklahoma City Thunder overcame a slow start to overwhelm the Sacramento Kings 105-95 on Friday night.
Russell Westbrook added 18 points and a season-high 14 assists to anchor a 28-10 run to start the third quarter. The spurt helped Oklahoma City go ahead by 25 points and improve to 3-2 on its season-long six-game road trip, which ends Sunday at the Los Angeles Lakers.
The Thunder have won eight of 10 to climb to the top of the NBA standings.
Tyreke Evans scored 16 points and DeMarcus Cousins had 14 points and eight rebounds on a difficult night shooting for the Kings, who have lost three straight and four of five. Oklahoma City outshot Sacramento 48 to 41 percent.
Sacramento's pending purchase agreement to a group that wants to relocate the team to Seattle still didn't stop an announced crowd of 15,022 from showing up. The Sonics moved to Oklahoma City in 2008. Ironically, Thunder owner Clay Bennett is the head of the league's relocation committee now.
Durant, Westbrook and Martin — who played for the Kings from 2004-10 — eventually mowed down Sacramento on both ends of the floor. The trio helped the Thunder shoot 52 percent from the floor in the first half, with Westbrook taking an outlet pass from Durant for an uncontested dunk in the final seconds to go ahead 58-51 at the break.
The Thunder's leading men quieted the Kings with near-flawless basketball. Serge Ibaka shut down Cousins, Westbrook orchestrated the offense and Durant often finished in spectacular fashion during a 28-10 spurt to start the third quarter that gave Oklahoma City an 86-61 lead and put the game away.

Check out my figure skating blog out at:
She got married this weekend? Did I miss some news or did this totally slip thru the FSU spy screen! And the dude I know at work who knows Clay Pell was on vacation this week. He claimed he was going to San Fran. He gots some 'splainin to do when he's back next week if he was there.
That dress is gorgeous. I want to see lots more pics though, especially the whole wedding party.
I think I will have a snack and take a nap before I eat and go to sleep.
Congrats to Michelle and Clay! They look so happy and her dress is gorgeous!
This (the first pic released) could be captioned: Big sis Karen (Matron of Honor) accompanies Michelle from Hope to Bliss!
Thanks everyone for links! I remember Michelle skating as a little girl and well-it puts a lump in the old throat. The years have flown by!
I see per the People article that Clay is 31 to Michelle's 32.
Best wishes for a lifetime of happiness to Michelle and Clay!
Reportedly additional guests include: Tim Shriver, Obama advisor Melody Barnes, Tom Collins, and former Olympic swimmer, Donna de Varona.

Our girl's all grown up!
Christine's caption of the pic with Dick, Clay and Michelle cracked me up. How fitting that Dick should be there along with Dorothy and Brian considering that these people literally witnessed Michelle growing up. I wonder if Peggy was there? Both Dick and Peggy being there would be so right to me since I grew up listening to their wonderful commentary while watching so many of Michelle's performances.
Anyway, congrats to Clay and Michelle! Even after all this while, we still aren't weaned off Michelle - she truly is the greatest female figure skater ever.
^^ If Peggy were there, she most likely would have been in the Olympian group photo.
Lovely news.
When you are up to your arse in alligators it is difficult to remember you were only meant to be draining the swamp.
Love the dress tasteful and beautiful.
OMG!! Right before our eyes, she has blossomed into an exquisite young lady. Clay is a lucky guy, and from what I have heard about him, Michelle made an excellent choice. Congratulations to them both. They look great! Michelle is rocking that gown! (Clay is now 31. Someone asked in an earlier post.)
It's wonderful to see her so happy and embarking on the next stage of her life. She has grown from a cute little girl with loads of skating talent, to an exquisite lady with significant off ice accomplishments and a desire to use her other talents to help people. I love that she used Fields of Gold in the ceremony, although I'd have included East of Eden as well.
If they have even half the happiness that Michelle has given skating fans, they'll have a wonderful life.

Treat your GOGmix as your child - name it! ;)
Coming up with a cool and descriptive title should be your first priority. Being original is in your best interest - bet you wanna get lots of nice votes, right? Go all crazy if you want, but be sure to keep it civil!
So, what are the ingredients?
Pick a game that belongs in your GOGmix from the list, or find it by typing something in the text field. Relevance is key here - Earthworm Jim doesn't quite fit the "Sexiest heroines of all time" bill now, does it?
Justify your choice... Or not!
OK, so it's not required, but now that you went through the trouble of adding a game, telling everyone why you did it would be a nice finishing touch. After you're done here, add another game, rinse, repeat.

Drought elevates value of grass buffers
With fall crops withering in the face of heat and drought, farmers might be wishing they had an affordable underground water-storage system that could reduce the financial impact of this summer's severe weather.
Well, that wish might be more attainable than they think.
The drought has given Austin Jost, a staff member with the Natural Resources Conservation Service office in Marion, one more reason to tout the benefits of grass buffers.
"Buffers are going to help because they store water," she said. "It's underground and the roots are storing it. Crops can usually access it.
"Buffers along stream lines even are not necessarily sucking up all the water like trees are," Jost added. "The trees wouldn't be able to suck the moisture away because the grass roots store the water in the plant instead of in the dirt.
"The grass is going to get first dibs because the roots are smaller and take moisture from a bigger area."
Jost empathizes with the dire situation facing local farmers.
"Everybody's complaining that there's no rain," she said. "With the drought, there's no saving the crops because they're past what they call the pollination stage. So even if we get a good rain, they're going to have to wait until it's time to reseed."
Jost said farming will always be a weather-based gamble, but grass buffers are one way farmers can at least hedge their bets.
"Yes, you're spending a little bit of money to put (a buffer) in, but if you're cost-share eligible you're saving money—plus getting paid, especially during a drought season. You'll have some cash flow coming in."
The up-front investment in establishing a grass buffer can be recovered, based on eligibility rules. But the investment can generate longterm benefits, according to Jost.
"Grass is something that doesn't come up just once a season and then you have to turn around and replant it," she said. "It's there permanently. It's not going to go away. You have to maintain it maybe once a year, and that's either hay or graze it.
"It's a guaranteed money-maker kind of thing, and it's going to help your crops because it's going to keep moisture n the field, and it's allowing everything else in the field to pay your way."
Jost said buffers can be established almost any time during the year.
"Usually we start contracting stuff out in the spring," she said. "But if people want to put these in now, they need to come into the office and sign up. We're going to do anything we can to make this as priceless for them as possible so they can get money back, too."
The process from first contact with the NRCS office to planting the seeds for grass and forbs can take from a couple of days to maybe a month.
"It all depends on how flexible they want to be and how easy to get along with," Jost said. "If they're going to be stubborn—like, I don't want it this big or that long—well, we still have to follow the rules just like they do."
The minimum width for a grass buffer is 30 feet and the maximum is 120 feet.
"As for length, they normally want it on all four sides of the field," Jost said. "If there's a hedge in the middle (of the field), they want it around the whole hedge row."
Other rules are that the farmer can't be driving on the grass constantly and can't turn cattle out on the grass without permission—such as the emergency-grazing situation that has been enacted this summer.
In addition to storing water for crops, grass buffers also can provide a measure of fire protection in the field.
"It's green, and green grass doesn't burn," Jost said. She added with a laugh: "I've tried to burn green grass and it just does not work. Even though grass may be turning dry-ish now (because of the drought), it's still holding moisture."
The primary purposes of grass buffers is to prevent rain from washing soil and chemicals off a field and into streams and lakes. For example, experts agree the soil runoff that brings nitrogen and phosphorous into Marion Reservoir is a key contributor to the toxic blue-green algae blooms that have plagued the lake the past several years.
"If it does rain really hard, with buffers it's not washing their crops into streams," Jost said. "It's still keeping the crop in the fields."
Buffers also provide natural cover for wildlife.

---- — Fine
If people continue to violate the dog leash law in the City of Plattsburgh, they should be fined heavily. I am tired of coming in contact with people who refuse to abide by the laws and act ignorant, uncaring to other people who do leash their dogs. Be an adult.
Older siblings in the family should set an example for the younger ones. If you act like drama and trouble and hate your parents, the others see that and may act like you. Your own kids suffer, too.
Great editorial on the demanding work of policing the North Country. However, is it absolutely necessary to have two sheriffs monitoring the repaving of the Rouses Point/Alburgh bridge all day?
To all of the people who write in about "bloated teacher salaries." What do you do for a living that you feel teachers are overpaid? I work in education, and I barely make it from paycheck to paycheck after I pay rent and student loans.
As a resident of Belmont Avenue in the City of Plattsburgh, I would like to take the opportunity to thank the City Recreation Department, its conscientious employees and the mayor for sprucing up our little park on the corner of Flaglar and Belmont. It's a wonderful and greatly appreciated green and recreation space.
Another school year beginning and with our economy in turmoil, a teacher's job is more critical than ever. Somehow they need to be committed to drag every single reluctant student, kicking and screaming, toward a high-school diploma which, in turn, can change the course of those students' lives.
I learned, in talking with a friend whose child played town ball for Saranac, that there are coaches out there that get it. Their grasshopper coach lets all the kids try all the positions. I wish our town coach had his philosophy. It's about learning not winning.
With tens of millions of people unemployed and underemployed, people with jobs should be thankful. They should get to work early, work hard and do their best possible. So why are too many showing up late, griping about the work, acting miserable, doing poor work and leaving early?
Who would suggest bringing a whistle with them to distract the other the dog, the dog off the leash, from following you? How about leashing your dog? Follow the laws? Being a responsible dog owner and person? That would solve a lot of problems.

Summary:Aaron Cross is one of six agents in a program called Outcome. Unlike the CIA's Treadstone, Outcome agents have been developed and trained for use by the Department of Defense. More than assassins, Outcome agents are designed for use in isolated, high-risk, long-term intelligence assignments. The behavioral science that was suggested as the underpinning of the Treadstone agents has been upgraded and advanced, but it's the shared origins of these two programs that makes Outcome so vulnerable as Bourne's story becomes public knowledge.

Wesley Medical Center offers a support group for new moms and dads who often feel overwhelmed and alone during their infants' first few months.
Parents with babies ranging in age from newborn to one-year-old can discuss parenting fears, ask questions and let the little ones play.
New father Mark Lujan tries to attend the class every week.
"We like coming every Wednesday to talk with other parents about solutions, and Josephine gets to get out of the house," Lujan says.
The class isn't a traditional taught-class, but an opportunity for parents to learn from one another.

The great Woody Allen was interviewed over the weekend in the Wall Street Journal, and the interview makes me think we could get him to make a movie here in Buffalo.
I am not sure if the WSJ lets non-subscribers in on its Web site, so I will cut and paste the parts that apply to us here in the Queen City.
How did you decide that you wanted to set your recent films in London, Paris, Rome or wherever?
Well, the Italians call and say, "We want to pay for it." It's strictly economics. It started with "Match Point." I wrote that film, and it was originally going to be about a family in New York, in Long Island and Palm Beach. But it was expensive to do in New York. And they called me from London and said, "Would you like to make a movie here? We'll pay for it." And so I said, "Yes." It was very easy to anglicize it. From then on, other countries call up and invite me to make movies, which is great because they don't invite me in the United States. What happens in Europe, in South America, in China and Russia—all these countries call me and say, "Would you make a movie here if we financed it?"
Do you think maybe Americans are loath to finance your films because you retain so much control over everything?
Yes, that's a big problem for me. Where it starts is that I feel I've been making films for years. They know what they're buying when they buy into me. I usually have a good cast of actors and actresses. They know that over the years, all of my films cost about $17 million or $18 million. They know that none of them are suddenly going to balloon to $25 million. They can rely on a good cast. And they know I'm not going to do like a medieval religious movie or something like that. So they know what they are buying. But I don't let anybody read a script, so that's an immediate deal breaker for 95% of them.
All this makes me pretty hopeful!
Buffalo would not have a problem with his artistic control, would we?
We would let Woody Allen do whatever he wants, as long as he is here! And now I think we could get him here. I had not realized things were that simple. Darn, I once actually got to interview Woody Allen in New York. I did not think to ask him about this, or I could have gotten the wheels turning a long time ago.
Think of what it would mean. You always hear about Woody Allen's movies being "a love letter" to this or that city. His latest, "To Rome With Love," is described as, you guessed it, a love letter to Rome.
His movie here could be a love letter to Buffalo! Surely he would recognize and appreciate the unique nature of our town, not to mention its sheer beauty. Plus, he always has great casts with unusual people. (In the interview he talks about how he wanted to offer parts to such people as Tonya Harding and Princess Diana.)
C'mon, we can raise the money. It's not that much, compared with other things we spend money on. And even if we can't raise it, we can spend it. You know us.
All our various boards and committees should get on this at once.
Make it happen!
-- Mary Kunz Goldman

Staying motivated to run is a challenge for all of us when temperatures dip and the holidays roll around. Maintaining your routine year-round may seem out of the question, but come springtime you'll be glad you got out there and stayed in the game. We scoured the web for the best advice to get you off on the right foot this winter. Here's what top bloggers and the Sport Chalet community had to say.
Winter Running Tips from Top Bloggers
"Dress for 10 degrees warmer than the weather is supposed to be—your body will warm up and generate heat! Make sure you dress in layers and that your clothing is specifically designed for cold weather running. It will ensure that your clothing will dry quickly from sweat, breathe, and be vented all while keeping you warm."
~Skinny Runner
"For extremely cold weather, use petroleum jelly on your eyelashes to prevent your eyes from freezing shut. Also, start into the wind and finish the run with the wind at your back."
~Complete Running
"Protect your hands! Be sure to wear moisture-wicking gloves on your winter run. Wearing snug-fitting gloves topped with weatherproof mittens works well. The double-layer insulation keeps your hands quite toasty."
~Runner Dude's Blog
"Stay low, shorten your running stride, and keep your feet lower to the ground. You will run more efficiently and reduce the risk of slipping, falling, or straining muscles. When running on snow, choose the fresh snow over ice or packed snow. You will get better traction on fresh snow and reduce the chance for slipping."
~Jenny Hadfield
Winter Running Tips From Our Community
"Since about 40% of your body heat is lost through your head, wear a simple beanie to protect your head and ears."
"Layer, especially upper body. Long sleeves keep hands warm when running as well. I have a running hoodie that has thumbholes that helps keep my hands warm."
"Cover your shoes when running in the rain. If your feet get wet when working out, it can cause blisters. I use the same rain covers that I use for my cycling shoes."
"I did a mud run and put body glide where I would blister on my feet. I did it one time when I ran in the rain. No blisters!"
"Be visible! Since it gets darker earlier in the winter, using knuckle lights (or another form of lighting) is smart."
Sport Chalet carries some amazing gear for running during the winter, including these items mentioned in the tips:
- Running clothes designed for cold weather
- Running hoodies with thumbholes
- Rain covers for your shoes
- Body glide
- Safety lighting
- Running shoes
No matter what you wear, the key is to stay motivated to get out there and pound the pavement even on the nastiest, coldest days. Cheers to all you hardcore runners who stick to it this winter! (Not to mention the holidays!)

In an effort to keep both Sidney Rice and Chad Greenway in the fold, the Vikings may resort to a weapon that they've exploited in the past. . .the transition player tag.
Now that the facts have been presented, who do you think the Vikings should use their 2011 franchise tag on?
Sidney Rice can potentially become a free agent after a new Collective Bargaining Agreement gets hammered out. Should the Vikings consider using the franchise tag on him?
According to Greg Bedard of the Boston Globe, the franchise tag will be available to NFL teams starting on February 10.

The Texas Senate has passed a bill allowing local governments to fight the spread of West Nile virus by treating water sources at uninhabited homes for mosquitoes.
West Nile virus is spread to humans from the bites of infected mosquitoes and Texas had a record number of cases in 2012.
Local governments say stagnant pools or water features create mosquito breeding grounds. The bill by Sen. John Carona, a Dallas Republican, allows officials to treat those water sources at abandoned or uninhabited foreclosed homes.
The treating agency would have to post a notice of its actions on the front door.
The bill now goes to the House for consideration.

Celina lost in the state title game 49-37. They had to come from behind just to get it that close after trailing 49-31early in the 4th. What a run for the Bobcats after a 4-3 start early in the season. You have to give these guys credit for finding a way to get it together and make another run to the state title game. Even though they didn't win, this may be one of Butch Ford's best coaching jobs.

Assistant Editor
---- — CLINTON — Mayor Mark Vulich has vetoed the Clinton City Council's decision to offer City Attorney Jeff Farwell a six-month severance package.
In a statement issued this afternoon, Vulich said the council was justified in asking for Farwell's resignation during the Dec. 10 meeting, but not in awarding him a a severance package of six months of salary and six months of health insurance.
"In good conscious, I cannot sign this resolution as approved by the council since the severance package was increased to six months," Vulich wrote.
According to his contract, Farwell would be offered a three-month severance package if the council asked for his resignation.
The six-month package would have cost the city $56,000.
Vulich had until the end of the day today to veto, sign or allow the resolution to go into effect without his signature.
Five of the seven council members would need to vote in favor of the six-month severance package to override Vulich's veto.
The council voting on the override would not be the same council that approved the settlement agreement on Dec. 20.
Four new council members were sworn in Thursday morning. The new members will meet for the first council meeting on Jan. 14.

Tallahatchie RiverFest has come and gone, the events all happened as advertised, and despite the rain, attendance was decent. It filled the bill as a community festival.

Time for charity
The United Way campaign for 2010 is underway across the seven counties, including Union, that are part of the United Way of Northeast Mississippi. The goal this year is $2,150,000, but the important number locally is how much money is contributed by Union Countians because that determines how much money is returned to benefit worthy […]
Failure in leadership
The Early Childhood Education Summit held Tuesday at the Magnolia Civic Center clearly defined the reason why Mississippi school children lag near the bottom among the states in educational performance. Many Mississippi children arrive at kindergarten and first grade unprepared for learning. It is especially true for children coming from families in poverty and Mississippi […]
Back to the future
A plan to establish minimum standards for rental housing in New Albany continues to languish in the hands of the members of the Board of Aldermen.

Red Cross a mess
The situation with the American Red Cross operation in New Albany continues to deteriorate with the resignation of Sally Zemek, the local part-time staff member. An ill-conceived plan to abolish the local Red Cross chapter and Zemek's part-time job as its director has resulted in a situation that can best be described as a mess. […]

One of the area's favorite events for families with young children takes place Friday and Saturday at the Union County Heritage Museum.
