WTPA Channel 71 officially signed on the air on Monday, July 6, 1953 at 9:00am.The station quickly got off the ground after the FCC lifted a freeze on the building of all television stations in April of 1952. As was popular at the time, WTPA aired a test pattern daily from 1:00pm to 9:00pm prior to July 6.
Three months after going on the air, WTPA introduced the area's first mobile unit. The unit was first used to cover the Pennsylvania National Horse Show. Other major events during its first year of use included coverage of the Farm Show, the Christmas Balloon Parade, the Builders Show and a birthday party for President Dwight D. Eisenhower in Hershey.
Six months after the stations first telecast, WTPA added two more "firsts." Central Pennsylvania's first telethon - with stage, screen, radio and TV stars - was telecast from the stage of the Harrisburg Community Theatre on December 12, 1953. One week later, the first original television drama was presented live from WTPA's studios.
Equipment to transmit network color programs was installed early in 1954, making WTPA the first station of its kind in the world with such facilities.
During its first year, WTPA also began its long tradition of outstanding achievement. The station received several national awards, including the Zenith Television Award for Public Service and first place in The Billboard 16th Annual Audience Promotion Contest.
With the addition of a new transmitted in 1954, the station power was increased to 200,000 watts, an increase of more than ten times the power the start-up amount.
A wide variety of television entertainment was provided during the early days. Professional boxing matches on Monday and Friday nights; the world famous Don McNeil and the Breakfast Club; Groucho Marx, Ralph Edwards, Voice of Firestone and many other leading programs of the day from NBC, DuMont and ABC Television Networks.
During WTPA's first year, the station broadcast hours were 9:00am to 12:15am Monday through Friday and noon to midnight on Saturdays and Sundays.
Programming highlights from the beginning included, "Daily Devotions" which aired at 12 noon and included "ministers of all faiths." News programming began at 12:15pm with "First Edition;" then again at 6:30pm with "Home Edition" and the "News and Sports Final" aired at 11:00pm.
During the first year other features included "Mac's Matinee" at 12:30pm, "Harrisburg Hostess" at 2:00pm, "Look What's Cooking" at 2:00pm and "Susquehanna Trail" at 5:15pm.
Other regular features included "Break the Bank" at 3:00pm, "Community Theater" at 7:00pm, "Who Said That!" at 10:30pm and "Encore Theater" at 11:15pm.
When WTPA signed on the air in 1953, the station was an affiliate of NBC. The top shows on NBC in 1953 included "Gillette Sports Reel," "It Happened In Sports," "Ding-Dong School" a show for pre-school age children, "Voice of Firestone," "Youth Wants to Know," and "The American Forum of the Air."

The groups in the bleachers are drawn from local organizations such as Kiwanis, Rotarians, etc. and the viewer's interest is aroused by the fact that his neighbor may be on the bleachers or the bench.

Roy Nassau brings to this show experience in radio, newspaper work and sports announcing, knowledge of this field, and a fast-paced distinctive delivery.
Sports Coverage
In the early days, sports was a top draw to own a television! According to a newspaper article "For the best in video sports will be yours and the price is the flick of the wrist to Harrisburg's newest and biggest television stations."
"WTPA has been granted the right to telecast the Gilette Cavalcade of sports, and you can see the best in the nation without looking sharp. You can take it easy in your home, in your favorite chair, and see the fights every week, the major races like the Kentucky Derby, the Preakness and the Belmont Stakes, the best in baseball and the best in football."
Since signing on in 1953, the station has continued its commitment to the community. On December 12 and 13, 1953, WTPA hosted the first local telethon to benefit United Cerebral Palsy. The event was entitled Celebrity Parade for Cerebral Palsy and was broadcast live from the Harrisburg Community Theatre. The 18-hour event raised $50,192.
On September 19, 1954, 14 short months after its founding, WTPA became an ABC affiliate.
WTPA was the third station to start broadcasting in Central Pennsylvania. The station began broadcasting on June 19, 1953 and launched its full-time schedule on July 6, 1953.
WTPA's first broadcast was July 6, 1953, ironically the first day the new Patriot-News building was opened to the public. The station, then Channel 71, went on the air at 9 a.m. with ceremonies that included the Mayor Claude Robins and Rev. Sheridan Watson Bell. It was an NBC affiliate then, and its first regular program was "Ding Dong School."
The station, then with two studios, had live TV from noon to 3 p.m.. Pauline Cooper did "Look What's Cooking." Miriam Murphy did "Harrisburg Hostess." Al Bethel, the band leader, was the newscaster, and Ray Nassau, who became a Capitol Hill public relations man, was the sportscaster. Eldred MacCauley, was the production chief and had a show, "Mac's Matinee."
WTPA's original staff included Dave Bennett, Fred Leuschner, Bill Prescott, Guy Pugliese, Gladys Swift, Don Wear and Ed Baeky.
WTPA's memorable "Cat Lady" did not come until later. Harriet Strickland, a community Theater actress, introduced the late TV movies in a zany, sensuous style that never has been topped in Midstate TV-land.
News reporter and anchor Mike Ross, though the most conventional appearing of the crowd, came into local TV with some of the best show biz credentials. A native of Lakewood, Ohio, he grew up in Harrisburg, graduated from William Penn High School and then went on the air for WKBO. From 1951 to 1953, he took a leave to do the part of Benny Southstreet in the national road company of "Guys and Dolls." Ross never forgot the exuberance of his road company days when he returned and became news director. The rest rooms at WTPA at one time were labeled "Guys" and "Dolls."
When WTPA began, it had 21,000 watts. In 1974, it had 2.3 million watts.
In 1954, Ed K. Smith, a local radio impresario, started WCMB-TV. He had Channel 27. Smith ran the first horse opera movies and had a night talk show, the original "Harrisburg After Dark," with Pete Wambach. There also was "Beat Pete," in which contestants asked biographical questions they thought Wambach couldn't answer in three minutes.
Smith went off the air in 1958, and WTPA got Channel 27. Smith also owned the right to Channel 33 and gave it to educational television.
Video tape arrived in 1963, a great advantage to television but a curse to live shows. Congress decreed that on April 30, 1964, all sets manufactured must be equipped with UHF and VHF. Color TV made its national debut in the mid-1950's.
In 1977, WTPA–TV produced two original film dramas to highlight community problems.
Originally aired January 15, 1975 at 10 p.m.."Anatomy in Blue," which starred Mike Ross, was produced and directed by WTPA program director Paul Baker. Glenn Hoerner served as director of photography. "Anatomy in Blue" was a dramatization of two days in the life of two Harrisburg policemen. The film was produced as the result of a community needs survey that showed a major problem was public apathy toward the police. The movie included a bank robbery and murder, a purse snatching, a family dispute, chases in cars and on foot and a fatal automobile accident. According to Baker, " Our purpose was to show the policeman as a human being, with human problems not much different that yours or mine.
Prior to "Anatomy in Blue," WTPA produced "Horse of a Different Color," a unique look at the drug problem. The film used entirely local, amateur talent and was made in coordination with Gaudenzia House, a rehabilitation center.
On October 27, 1977, WHTM celebrated the expansion of the station with an open house. Following a ribbon cutting ceremony with General Manager Paul Abbott and Mayor Harold Swensen, visitors could take a tour of the newly expanded facility.
WTPA became WHTM on March 29, 1980 after it was purchased by the Times-Mirror Company. The station was purchased by Allbritton Communications in 1996.
Reaction to the first day on the air from "My Memories" by Fred Leuschner: "When we finally hit the air July 6, 1953, we felt we were in heaven. Everything we did was new. We created as we went and innovated about everything we did because nobody had done it before. We did everything. We created the shows, built the sets, operated the cameras, announced, and directed the programs. In those days, we went live at noon and stayed that way for most of the afternoon. We did talk shows, kitchen cooking shows and quiz shows."
"A daily show called "Mac's Matinee," which was aired from 12:30 to 1:30pm. This featured just about everything we could put together, including guests, interviews and playing records. Since it was all so new, people watched, even when all we did was pan around or zoom in or out while a record was playing. Mac's sidekicks were Al Wolfe and Ed Baekey who were funny clowning around, Ed as comic character Sylvan Schlumper. We had a small studio band made up of WTPA staffers Al Bethel on trombone, Mac McCauley on trumpet, Bob Harnsberger on drums and Paul Gross on trumpet."
"Another daily afternoon program was an interview show in a living room setting hosted by Miriam Murphy and later Gladys Swift. They booked Harrisburg personalities. There were so many interesting personalities that it's hard to remember many of them. However, one time a guest brought in a bobcat that got loose and ran all over the studio, scratching the guest so severely that he had to be taked to the hospital for treatment."
"Although the time periods changed, we had a cowboy band on early in the evenings, often at 6:00pm, featuring Bud Messner and His Skyliners who played and sang and developed quite a following."
"The early evening news called "Home Edition" came on, sometimes at 6:00pm and sometimes at 6:30pm, with Don Wear, Program Director, followed by "The Scoreboard" with Roy Nassau, News and Sports Director. At 7:00pm we did a weather show followed by a call–in quiz show MC'd by Al Bethel titled "It's Your Move." It featured a checkerboard with moves based on answers to questions."
"At 7:15 p.m., we had a variety show featuring "Lynn Christie," a vocalist from Lebanon who had big time aspirations. She sang for about 15 minutes, accompanied by local pianist Al Morrison."
"In the early evenings, we did a few 15 minute shows. One was called "Our Common Wealth," a take off on the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, produced by Bill Richards of the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission. He brought in curators from historical sites around the state. Another was a medical show produced by Dorothy Schaull for the Dauphin County Medical Society featuring local doctors who discussed recent medical developments."
"One evening per week (Fridays), we did a show called "Beat the Bench." It was a sports quiz show which Roy Nassau, the news and sports director, MC's. We had a bunch of sport enthusiasts come in and ask a panel of experts questions about sports. The enthusiasts sat on bleachers between Roy and the panel. He also used a mystery guest who spoke through a filtered microphone and the panel had to guess who it was."
"Another show was "Skyline Towers," a musical show featuring singers Anita Rockey, Lynn Christy and Ed Baekey; pianst Al Morrison and other Harrisburg musicians. The show was aired Tuesdays featuring a set that looked like a night club."
"On Wednesday evenings at 9:30pm, we did a show called "What's It Worth?" It was similar to the popular public TV show on the air today called "The Antique Road Show." It featured a panel of antique experts who evaluated pieces brought to the studio by viewers."
Romper Room:
Romper Room was created in 1953 for WBAL-TV, a local station in Baltimore. The show was so popular with children, that by the late 1950's the show had spread to more than 100 stations across the country. Romper Room signed on WTPA on November 11, 1954. Each show features games for the in-studio kids to play and cleverly interspersed between the games were lessons that have become children's classics.
The hostesses sidekick was a yellowjacket named Mr. Doo Bee. The show always ended with the hostess looking through her "Magic Mirror" to "see" the kids watching the show from home.
The show was franchised and each show was run by a hostess personally trained by the originally hostess "Miss Nancy."

A Decatur man sought in Fulton County on an outstanding manslaughter warrant, was arrested in Riverdale during a traffic stop, said Clayton County Sheriff's Lt. Brian Crisp.
Quentin Marcell Byrd, 35, was pulled over near Ga. 85 and Roberts Drive for not wearing his seatbelt, said Crisp. A check of the Georgia Criminal Information Center turned up the outstanding warrant.
He was also cited for a seatbelt violation.
Crisp said Byrd was taken into custody without incident and held in the Clayton County Jail for about 12 hours before being transferred to the Fulton County Jail.
Fulton Jail records show that Byrd is being held without bond on a single charge of voluntary manslaughter.
Clayton court records show that Byrd paid a fine in 2008 for driving without his license. Several months later, a grand jury declined to indict Byrd on charges of simple battery, criminal damage to property and obstructing a 911 call.

We have had several Stinger Bug Lights over the years.The are better than using bug sprays that may be bad to your health.
They help it so we can enjoy the out doors.
It sure draws in a lot of bugs. I thought it was broken becaused it was zapping so much but when I checked it out it was surrounded by a swarm of bugs.
No dusk to daylight switch.

A crucial element of a £12 million redesign of Kensington Palace by one of the Prince of Wales's favoured architects was thrown out by council executives last night.
Proposals to build a cast-iron portico on the eastern façade of the palace, the former home of the late Diana, Princess of Wales, were rejected after planning officers said that designs for a new entrance, or loggia, were over-elaborate and twee. It was designed by the classical architect John Simpson.
Despite the decision to hold back on the redesign of the entrance to the Palace, the rest of the £12 million project, which includes an educational centre and café, was approved by Kensington and Chelsea council.
Historic Royal Palaces, the charity that runs five royal palaces in London, dismissed the row over the loggia as insignificant. "It is obviously a very small part of the project,†a spokesman said. "Certain members of the committee were in favour of the loggia, but others were not, so it was not approved. We are just delighted that the wider scheme has been awarded.â€
After yesterday's planning committee meeting, a spokeswoman for Kensington and Chelsea council said: "The application will be approved if the applicant excludes the loggia element of the application.â€
Earlier the Prince of Wales's architecture charity, the Prince's Foundation for the Built Environment, had been accused of trying to influence planning decisions relating to the redesign.
Republic, the organisation that campaigns for an elected head of state, criticised the foundation for writing to the planning committee at the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea in support of the plans.
Last week the organisation lodged a complaint about the Prince's Foundation, claiming that it had acted as a "political lobby group†for the heir to the throne in his personal tastes on other architectural projects.
Graham Smith, Republic's campaign manager, said last night that Kensington Palace was another example of the charity doing Prince Charles's bidding.
"Charities should be independent, charities should be free to take the decisions they feel they want to,†he said.
"One of the things we were complaining about is the charity is doing the bidding of Charles — this reinforces that.â€
Clarence House denied that the Prince had any involvement in the foundation's decision to make representations in favour of the Kensington Palace design. A spokeswoman said: "As four of the Prince's charities are based at Kensington Palace, His Royal Highness has been shown the designs but the planning process is obviously up to the council and the local community.â€
Hank Dittmar, chief executive of the Prince's Foundation for the built Environment, said that the organisation "wrote in support of John Simpson's design because we were familiar with it from our involvement with Historic Royal Palaces.
"There is nothing unusual about a charity commenting on a design, and in fact several other charities have commented on this application as well.
"To single out the Prince's Foundation is tantamount to harassment.â€
Simpson also created a building for Poundbury, the Prince's model development in Dorset.
Daniel Moylan, Conservative deputy leader of the council and cabinet member for planning, said that the loggia at Kensington Palace was "decoratively over-elaborate and almost embarrassingly 'twee' and, although designed by a leading architect, one could easily imagine its being replicated one day in a garden furniture catalogueâ€.
After yesterday's planning committee meeting, a spokeswoman for Kensington and Chelsea council said: "The application will be approved if the applicant excludes the loggia element of the application.â€
Good to see that sense has prevailed

- Great as I rememberedSunnyMallickDined on 8/20/2014My last dining experience here was not up to par. However that was clearly an off day. The food is always great here as is the service. We came to celebrate our anniversary. Everything we ordered came out hot and fresh. We will be coming back soon with some family.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Worth the trip from D.C.HopeVIPDined on 8/20/2014Discovered Woodberry Kitchen on a return trip from Philly to D.C. and now find that it's worth the drive (even in rush hour traffic). It's a dining "experience." The food is wonderful and is equaled by the atmosphere, the vibe and the knowledgeable and friendly service. Spike -- hope you'll bring your magic to D.C. someday!!Special Features:
- Excellent FoodOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 8/19/2014We were at Woodberry for our 35th Wedding anniversary, had heard a lot about it. We heard that it was crowded and noisy, which it was. However, we thought the atmosphere was great, but can see how others would be turned off by it. Food was outstanding ! Nice touch bringing out our desserts on a plate with "Happy 35th Anniversary" written in chocolate. Minor complaints" 1. The website is very much out of date. Directions indicated to turn on Union Avenue and look for the house with the large sign...we saw no sign and ended up coming around from the back. Site looked like it had not been update in years. 2. We were never asked if we wanted another drink. Both minor issues. All in all, we really enjoyed ourselves and had a great evening !Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- AMAZING!!!!FFXMICKVIPDined on 8/19/2014The whole evening was one plate of deliciousness after another. My date and I made a meal of the top sections of the menu (starters, snacks, etc) and never bothered with entrees -- better sharing that way. We had corn/crab soup (delicious!!), a rocket salad that took salad to new heights of flavor, smoked swordfish belly w/noodles that was only outdone by the amazing comfort food that is their mac 'n' cheese (so gooey and cheesy and flavorful it almost made me feel guilty for feeling the need to ask our server if it was worth ordering). Currently (late August) anything that has tomatoes in it (including the tomato gravy on the shrimp and grits) is OUT OF THIS WORLD because the tomatoes are at peak perfection.

- OpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 8/17/2014The rating provided is an average of the table's experience, but if you're a vegan, I especially would not recommend this restaurant.
- Fantastic first visit!OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/17/2014Celebrating a good friend's birthday, brought us from Annapolis to have brunch at Woodberry Kitchen. We had heard and read outstanding things about this restaurant and were anxious to find out for ourselves just how true the chatter was. Our experience was perfect from start to finish and we left knowing that we would surely be back for more great service, more delicious food, and more of the relaxed and interesting setting. Yes, we had a fantastic first visit to Woodberry Kitchen.Special Features:
- DisappointedOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/17/2014I have been to woodberry many times in the past but this time really fell short of the mark. We sat outside at a table that was directly in the sun, and when we asked to have them adjust the umbrellas so that we were shaded, they were less than accommodating and we ended up moving to a table that wasn't much better. There were tables with children on either side and they were very loud and distracting. The service was average at best and I was not satisfied with the meal I ate. Usually the food at woodberry is excellent, but this experience rubbed me wrong. Don't know if I will be back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Satisfying Sunday BrunchAlizarin22Dined on 8/17/2014We brought two out-of-town guests to Sunday brunch . . . and they're already planning to visit again on their next trip. The food and atmosphere are incredible. The food is fresh, the drinks are fun - and the pace is luxuriously casual. We didn't feel rushed at all as we sipped french-pressed coffee and cocktails in the late morning sun. Our waitress was a little aloof and we had to prompt her for water refills - but the food and ambiance make up for any lacking service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best BrunchMikeydonnaDined on 8/17/2014This is our 3rd brunch visit and as always, it was wonderful. It has become our recent tradition to celebrate our birthdays at Woodberry Kitchen with the Sunday Brunch. Based on all 3 experiences, I am sure we will continue to enjoy our birthdays here.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Such a special placeIllbebackDined on 8/16/2014The food was wonderful. It is important to me to know the source of my food. A lot of restaurants who use "local" "organic" etc marketing lines use this important philosophy as a ploy. The menus don't reflect where things come from. The servers definitely don't know/care about your questions re: source. WBK CARES. It's equally as important as the quality of the food and the atmosphere. We went this past Saturday and left very happy. The server made it not perfect. While knowledgable, he was a snob. (funny to me) He acted like he was doing us a favor. We were celebrating my mom's 84 and a promotion = happy occasion but each time he came to the table there was a bit of dread. Great service in the past prevailed. Still in love with WBK.Special Features:

- Already want to go backRoseDined on 8/16/2014The previous time that we went to Peabody, service was VERY slow (it took 45 minutes to get a cheese plate) so we were a little apprehensive upon arriving. However, our food came out within no time and our waiter was attentive without being overbearing. The food was delicious and we left full and happy. Already looking forward to our next visit!Special Features:
- Great as always!RobertVIPDined on 8/15/2014We were stuck in traffic on 695 and arrived just after 11 when the kitchen closes. Everyone was very nice and we were able to have a few snacks and tasty flatbreads without feeling like we inconvenienced anyone. Was very sad to hear the Moscow Mule's are no longer available due to the lack of ginger. Very sad!Special Features:

The prices were really high - much more than I had expected. Overall, the experience was fine, but we won't be going back.Special Features:
- Disappointing servicekredDined on 8/15/2014Food was excellent - but unfortunately our server fell apart during the second part of our meal. It's as if we disappeared once the food came. Went for over 20 minutes without drinks - not even water. And no one came by to ask! And while I did get a surprise birthday treat...it came to the table AFTER we already paid the bill and were preparing to leave. Good thing we had a wait for the cab. Took a month to get this reservation...at this point, the only reason I'll go back is because i have a gift card to use, which we forgot, of course, after all that. Hopefully they'll redeem themselves. Too many great choices in Baltimore not to get 4 or 5 stars across the board.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- KurtMathiasDined on 8/14/2014I highly recommend Woodberry Kitchen. Everything is hand crafted. From the drinks to the food & service; nothing disappointed. Great job.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not Sure it's Worth the WaitOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 8/14/2014This is obviously a very popular spot as getting a reservation is nearly impossible. Clearly the reservation is just a line placeholder since we arrived for an 8pm reservation and were seated at 8:50pm with no communication except for a "thanks for your patience" from the hostess when seated. The food was good but not amazing and not worth the hype or the wait. There are so many other great choices in Baltimore!Special Features:
- excellent first-time adventurelove4fooddiningDined on 8/14/2014First time visit. Must say the location is a little out of way, but the dining experience was worth the trip. Arrived a few minutes early for my reservation, but was seated promptly. The server, Hannah, was more than familiar with the menu and all the intricacies of the menu. Made great recommendations. Overall, the experience was well worth the drive, and I have recommended Woodberry to a number of people, who like to embark on adventures.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

The food was really good and even the side dishes were unusual.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great place but slow nightSgbaltimoreDined on 8/13/2014Good food and great cocktails and ambiance as always, unfortunately things were slow to the point of terrible this night. Seated 50 minutes after our reservation for 3 ppl and everything that followed was equally slow or worse. One bad night won't sway me from trying again. Hopefully things are running smoother next time.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food and service!BmorefoodieVIPDined on 8/13/2014Woodberry Kitchen was recommended to us by pretty much everyone when we moved to town. So glad we finally gave it a try, it did not disappoint. The food was great as was the service.Special Features:
- Great spot for a night outOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 8/13/2014I went here on a Wednesday night and it was packed tight. I made reservations and had to wait about 10 minutes for a table, it was that packed. The service was spot on, albeit a bit too spot on, and it felt kind of rushed during the first two courses. The food was good and filling (pickled eggs, wood oven sausage plate and the espresso float), but the noise level was high at the bar and it fills the room. If you're looking for something more peaceful go with the patio seating. Overall, I had a pretty good time. Minor issues popped up, but the food was delicious and well thought out and the service was kind and courteous.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Another WOWgfsusanDined on 8/13/2014Celebrated our anniversary with dinner on the terrace. Only about a dozen tables out there so we were fortunate! So nice and quiet, compared to the main dining room. Their attention to the needs of gluten-free diners is impressive. New gluten-free biscuits are tasty and tender. Crab pot with gf toasts was sinfully delicious--lots of lump fresh crab. Toast was worth eating even on its own! Squash salad was a nice aciidic complement--piquant, and unique. My husband's sausage platter was also very flavorful--sausages, potatoes, onions and peppers all perfectly prepared and the creamy mustard sauce just perfect. Another meal that left us comfortably full, truly satisfied, but wanting to return again soon!Special Features:
- Hidden GemTedAsh711Dined on 8/12/2014This restaurant is definitely off the beaten path, but it is a great experience once you find it. Everything about the place is different. The menu, the building, the drinks, the service. Different in a GOOD way. If you are looking for an Applebees or Longhorn type of menu, you will not find it here. The menu is very eclectic, natural and local grown foods. Combinations of recipes you have never heard of before. But the quality is top notch. Excellent cooking and taste. No complaints. Oh, and the pricing is very reasonable too!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great AmbianceLocalsDined on 8/12/2014Kind of a unique place for a special celebration. Food was good but not great. Menu was okay at best and for the price, portions were small. There beef offering was weak and prices were higher than average. Sirloin steak as a featured steak for the price made the menu weak in my opinion. The beef rib was very good. The service was the best we have had in long, long time. The waitress was extremely knowledgeable of the menu and made very good recommendations. All in all I would go back for a special event.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Everyone should eatTraybaybayyyDined on 8/12/2014We were originally disappointed that the Orioles game was cancelled due to rain, but we couldn't have been happier how the evening turned out. A friend recommended we go to Woodbury Kitchen and we were ecstatic just about the decor and location. All the dishes were so decadent and delicious, we had to get three appetizers! Not only is the good outstanding, the service made you feel like it was your everyday coffee stop. Even though Woodbury Kitchen is four hours from my home, it's definitely worth the drive.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Soccer Continues to Win
September 27, 2008
Macon, GA-The Salem College soccer team beat Wesleyan College 3-1 today. Tatum Justice (Jacksonville, NC) and Tori Collier (Raleigh, NC) contributed to all three goals. Salem improves to 6-3 with their 4th win in a row and Wesleyan drops to 3-5.
Justice started the scoring 50 seconds into the game when Collier slid a through ball into her. Justice would score again in the 42nd minute assisted by Collier. Salem went into halftime with a 2-0 lead.
Collier followed up a shot by Justice that hit the post to put the Spirits up three goals in the 78th minute. Lindsey Brichacek would find the net for Wesleyan with five minutes left. Salem outshot Wesleyan 34-9. Andrea Baldwin had 5 saves for Salem.
"We started out the game much quicker than yesterday," said Head Coach Jay Callahan. "We still have to work on some key areas to improve, but I was proud of the teams overall effort on the weekend."
Salem returns to the road on Friday, October 3rd as they travel to 7-1 Averett University in Danville,VA. The team returns home on October 5th against Wilson at 2:00.

Police have identified the gunman and both victims in the shooting at an Elkhart Martin's on Wednesday night. Just after 10 pm on Wednesday night, Elkhart City Police say they received a 911 call about a man with a gun in the Martin's Super Market on East Bristol in Elkhart.
When officers entered the store, they heard a gunshot and they saw a suspect, now identified as Shawn Bair of the Elkhart area, who they say then pointed the gun at them. Police then shot the suspect, killing him.
Police believe Bair entered the store and walked around the store for about 30 minutes. Eventually he shot 20-year-old Krystle Dikes of Elkhart. Dikes was an employee of the store working in the deli department. He then reportedly tried to shoot at another employee, but missed. He then shot 44-year-old Rachelle Godfread of Elkhart, killing her. Godfread was shopiping at the store. Police say he then confronted a manager, but police arrived and were able to distract him long enough for the store employee to escape.
Authorities say Bair was known to employees. He had shopped at the store many times, but he was not known by name.
Police found a large caliber, semi-automatic handgun and a large hunting knife near Bair's body. Police say the crime scene is very large. Several rounds of ammunition were fired by both Bair and the police officers. Authorities do not know at this time whether or not the gun was registered, or how specifically Bair acquired it.
Indiana State Police Sgt. Trent Smith says that Elkhart City Police Department's quick response to the shooting saved lives. "I can't wait to sit down with those officers and personally thank them, and tell them how much admiration and respect I have for them," says Smith.
The shooting is still under investigation. Police are interviewing witnesses and are examining surveillance video from the store. Police say they saw people inside the store react in many different ways, including some going to investigate.
The video had no sound, but Sgt. Smith says since most people have never heard a gunshot in real life, they may not have even known what was happening initially. "You expect to be safe in a grocery store in your neighborhood," said Sgt. Smith
Mayor Dick Moore called the attack a senseless and tragic act of violence. In a written statement, the mayor said his "first thoughts and condolences go to the families of the deceased," and that he is appreciative of the quick response by our Elkhart Police Officers."
Martin's released a statement on their Facebook page around 12:25 am saying: "Thank you to our community for your thoughts and prayers tonight. We will comment further when we can do so responsibly and appropriately."

What is a biblical definition of 'miracle'?
The term "miracle" has lost much of its luster in our day. And it isn't because we see miracles taking place so often that we no longer are sensitive to their meaning. It's because our speech has evolved in such a way that today, if I got to work on time this morning, "It was a miracle that I made it, seeing that there was so much traffic on the freeway."
A biblical model and definition, on the other hand, for a miracle is another thing all together. Not everything hard to believe can be quantified as a miracle according to scriptural standards. Miracles are those acts that only God can perform; usually superceding natural laws. Baker's Dictionary of the Bible defines a miracle as "an event in the external world brought about by the immediate agency or the simple volition of God." It goes on to add that a miracle occurs to show that the power behind it is not limited to the laws of matter or mind as it interrupts fixed natural laws. So the term supernatural applies quite accurately.
It's very interesting that a common word used for miracle in the New Testament can also be translated "sign." A miracle is a sign that God uses to point to Himself; the same way we follow signs to find a museum or an airport.
An interesting question may arise. Does something have to break a natural law for it to be a miracle? C.S. Lewis defines a "miracle" in his work by the same name as an interference with nature by a supernatural power. Obviously, to interfere with natural law may not necessarily mean to break the natural law. In fact, nature and "supernature" become interlocked after a miracle occurs and nature carries on according to the change wrought by that event. A science example: the law of inertia (Newton's first law of motion) states that an object will remain in rest until an external force is applied. Nature can only move from event to event through supernatural intervention.
Deists believe that it was only at creation that the supernatural and the natural related. But we Christian theists believe that God has intervened in nature by its inception, sustained it by His preserving power, and will redeem it through the final act of intervention. The creation and incarnation of Christ are the perfect examples of supernatural inertia (another way of referring to a miracle), not to mention their conclusion as well, in His second coming. God is still in the business of working miracles. And we wait eagerly for that greatest miracle of them all--the redemption of all creation.
Thanks for your question.

A DeBary woman faced a judge on Monday on child neglect charges.
Volusia County deputies said Cheryn Scaggs, 30, went to Shotz sports bar in DeBary around midnight Sunday and drank until 2 in the morning Monday. Bar patrons told deputies that Scaggs asked for help getting home, and that's when patrons noticed Scagg's children, ages 1 and 4, asleep in the car in the bar parking lot.
Deputies arrested Scaggs and she was jailed on a $10,000 bond.
Shotz bar owners tell FOX 35 News, "We feel fortunate that this situation was discovered before this woman was able to leave, which led to her subsequent arrest. We pray that these children will be placed in safe care."

The Cooperstown group Friends of the Parks has announced the schedule for the 75th anniversary celebrations for Fairy Spring Park, starting with an Early Bird Splash on Wednesday, July 24.
The park will be open early especially for the event and will feature life-guarded swimming in addition to coffee donated by Stagecoach Coffee and homemade muffins. On Sunday, Aug. 4, a 75th birthday party will be held on from 6:30 to 8 p.m. On Wednesday, Aug. 21. there will be a children's story time reading of "Fairy Boats" read by Cooperstown kindergarten teacher, Lisa Lippitt at 7 p.m.
The park, located on Route 31 in the town of Middlefield and owned by the village of Cooperstown, consists of 31.6 acres including five along the lake, a swimming area and boat dock, picnic areas, caretaker's cottage and a guest pavilion.
According to a report prepared by Cynthia Hunt and Celestina Cuadrado of the Cooperstown Graduate Program in 2009, the first mention of "Fairy Spring" is in James Fenimore Cooper's "Home as Found." There it is described as a, "little fountain … gushing from the thicket … which comes glancing like diamonds into the lake." It is also the site of Natty Bummpo's hut in Cooper's "Leatherstocking Tales."
Private owners originally held the Fairy Spring lot as part of the larger Bower Patent until the mid-18th century when Robert Sterling Clark sold the lot to Otsego County in 1936. Knowing of the village's interest in the lot, he provided the village with $15,000 to buy the lot and an additional $10,000 for improvements. Cooperstown purchased the lot in November of 1936 and began construction on the caretaker's cottage, pavilion and bathroom facility designed by architect Alfred R. Cobbett in 1937. Fairy Spring opened to the public on May 30, 1938.
All events are free and open to the public. For more information or to get involved in the planning, visit the Friends of the Parks' Facebook Page or call Susie Knight at 547-8333.

1Lindsay ALMOST Went to Jail Today
Lindsay's lawyer is a saint. Wait, I mean her old lawyer, Shawn Chapman Holley, the one she fired for no good reason. The new one kind of sucks.
Here's what happened: Lindsay had a court date this morning. The judge said that either Lindsay herself had to be there, or she could have a lawyer there on her behalf. But Lindsay isn't even in California, and she just fired her Californian lawyer. Her new lawyer practices in New York, and he'd have to go through this whole procedure to be able to do anything in L.A. You see where the problem is? With no one in court in Lindsay's corner, the judge issues a warrant for Lindsay's arrest.
But Lindsay's ok, because Shawn Chapman Holley is a nice person. Despite having been fired, she showed up to court to enter Lindsay's plea of "not guilty." She didn't even have to do that. She could have just been like "oh, I don't work for this bitch anymore," and then dance a little jig out of the courtroom. But she didn't. And Lindsay is one lucky lady.
Lindsay's next court date is on the 30th, and this time she actually has to show up. Hopefully she still won't have anything worked out and she'll have to represent herself. Wouldn't that be hilarious? What a wreck.

Two new studies shed light on relationships and friendship.
The first new study was published in Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin.
The study recorded people in different situations, like asking a neighbor to turn down their music. That video was then shown to strangers, and friends, who had to judge the participant's behavior.
According to the study's findings, we judge people we know to match our specific impressions of them. For example, if we think of someone as generally talkative, we will judge that person to be more talkative in specific situations beyond what a stranger would see in the very same behavior.
"We really like to have our images of persons be consistent," the researchers added. "This is probably beneficial in terms of arriving at an overall image that is representative. For example, if the person's behavior in a situation is very atypical, we could discount it as an exception and not let it influence our overall image of the person much."
Researchers say that these biases in human cognition could be a problem if you have to interview with someone you already know or get legal advice from a friend.
It's also a problem in the classroom, where that first impression on the teacher sticks with you the entire school year. For example, a professor who considers his student to be highly intelligent will probably tend to overestimate that student's performance in an oral exam,
The second study was a survey by the UK Bingo Site Paddy Power Bingo. It found that four in 10 women would rather spend time with their girlfriends than their husband. The survey also found that a third of the women surveyed felt it was easier to talk about serious issues with other women, rather than men.

Kodak Ranked among the Top 20 Preferred Employers in Israel
A large-scale survey of employees at high-tech companies in Israel ranked Kodak IL among the 20 best companies to work for. Kodak joins Intel, Microsoft, IBM, SAP, Motorola, and Google in the top 20 group, surpassing other global high-tech companies such as Texas Instruments, CA, Nokia-Siemens, ECI, SanDisk, and Orbotech. The high ranking is a tremendous accomplishment for Kodak IL, which until recently was not even perceived as a high-tech company.
Kodak is again on the list of "Best Places to Work for GLBT Equality."
Honorees were selected by the Human Rights Campaign Foundation (HRC) - a civil rights organization working to achieve gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender equality.

Kodak has received a perfect score every year since the Equality Index began in 2002.

CATEGORIES MoviesBack in May, Deadline reported that Matt Damon was interested in making the spec script 'Father Daughter Time' -- about a criminal who goes on the lam with his daughter -- his directorial debut. One month later, Damon told Vulture that he was going to have John Krasinski co-star in his directorial debut. Many still assumed that would be 'Father Daughter Time,' but -- four months later -- that appears incorrect: Variety reports that Damon will direct himself and Krasinski in an untitled drama that the pair co-wrote after Krasinski developed the initial concept with author Dave Eggers. Damon will play a salesman who has his life turned over after visiting a small town. No word yet on whether Ben Affleck is involved. [Variety]
Good news for people who love writing complaint letters: Warner Bros. has finally greenlit its live-action remake/reboot of the Japanese anime series 'Akira' for Jaume Collet-Serra ('Unknown') to direct. Casting hasn't begun, but it appears 'Tron: Legacy' star Garrett Hedlund is a frontrunner, this despite the fact that the source material features Japanese characters with names like Kaneda and the titular Akira. This version of 'Akira' will be set in New Manhattan instead of Neo Tokyo, so hopefully the casting can be explained within the story. [Variety]
When politics met Hollywood: Sony may move Kathryn Bigelow's planned Osama bin Laden movie from its current release date of Oct. 12, 2012 to later in the year or possibly 2013. The reason? To avoid making the film a political lightning rod in the final weeks before the 2012 presidential election. [Deadline]
Speaking of Sony, the studio is closing in on a deal to acquire the rights to 'Assassin's Creed' which would likely get turned into a franchise. Take that, 'Resident Evil'! [Variety]
DreamWorks Animation has won the rights to 'Captain Underpants,' the popular children's book series by Dav Pilkey about a pair of fourth graders who hypnotize their principal into becoming a superhero. Seeing a principal walking around kids in his or her underwear is usually creepy, but here it's supposedly fun. [Deadline]
Congratulations to 'The Big Year,' which may wind up being the second-worst wide release of 2011 behind only 'Bucky Larson: Born to be a Star.' [LAT/24 Frames]

It was 6 degree weather one January day in 2011, but there was a chore out on the patio that needed attention, and as it was no more than 6 feet from the door I bravely stepped outside, but was hit by such ice-cold air that I darted back in and postponed the chore till Spring.
But that moment made me ponder how people kept/keep from freezing when they have no choice and simply must go outside.

August Tour News
Hi from Rick: This Year's Top 10 Tours
I'm in Europe filming my final batch of TV shows for the upcoming season (Berlin is on deck, then Prague), but whenever the camera shuts off, my mind keeps going back to the real highlight of this summer — tagging along on one of my "classic" Best of Europe in 21 Days tours.
While I've always had a passion for teaching smart independent travel, each year as a tour member I learn first-hand what a joy it can be to experience Europe on a well-designed tour. And this edition of Tour News feels like a good time to celebrate our Top 10 tours of this past year, chosen by how you've "voted" with your precious vacation time and money. Of course, just because one itinerary is more popular than another doesn't mean the quality isn't the same. In fact, having the same high standards for all 40 of our itineraries is... Read more
