Yesterday marked the 100th anniversary of the start of the Great War. There were commemorative events all around the world. Britain observed an hour of darkness in honour of those who lost their lives. Prince William, Catherine, and Prince Harry were in Belgium to attend a dedication. Today, the three were back in London, at the Tower of London, touring through the Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red installation that, by November 11, on Armistice Day, will represent the 888,246 fallen soldiers from the UK, Australia, and the Commonwealth, each life remembered with a poppy.

Prince Harry is also at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow with his brother and sister-in-law. You remember when his grandmother the Queen photobombed a few young students last week? Harry did the same thing to some people from Massey University. In case you missed it: here's our very own Gary Hermansson getting photo bombed by Prince Harry at #Glasgow2014 Full Story

The Cambridges have been in Glasgow the last few days for the Commonwealth Games. Yesterday they were at the swimming centre (she wore a sleeveless shirt under a blazer and pants) and today they were spectators at the athletics competition (in a blue dress). Something happens to Will and Kate when they're at sporting events. Full Story
Dear Gossips,It's Big G's first birthday! His parents have urged the public to refrain from sending gifts, not only because that child has everything he could possible want, but also because that child only wants things he can crush. Read Full Intro
Big G on his feet

Big Prince G turns 1 tomorrow and to commemorate the milestone, his parents have released a photo of him for the first time on his feet, all by himself. It was taken a couple of weeks ago at the National History Museum in London where they were visiting the Sensational Butterflies exhibition. Um. Full Story
Uncle for the second time?

Prince Hot Harry on a Horse was on his horse this weekend at a polo match. I do like a ginger in red. Uncle Ginger might be an uncle again…that is if you believe Jessica Hay. Hay claims to be an old friend of Katy Cambridge. When Katy was pregnant with Big G, it was Hay who told the media that she was expecting (November 2012) and that she'd be making an announcement the following month. Full Story
Dear Gossips,Prince Big G turns a year old on July 22. So Vanity Fair is celebrating him by putting him the cover. I don't understand why none of them, especially him, the star of the show, are looking directly AT the camera. Perhaps it's meant to convey how connected they all are as a family. Read Full Intro
Sporty royal weekend

The Cambridges and Hot Harry were on hand to celebrate the first stage of the Tour de France this weekend. Kate wore green and I wonder if she was too hot. She laughed and touched her stomach and everyone else is wondering if she's expecting another baby. They're waiting for the spare. They can't wait for the spare. Full Story
Will, Kate, and Genie

Genie Bouchard! Canada's golden girl won her quarterfinal match today at Wimbledon, advancing to the semifinals…which will be her THIRD grand slam semi this year. Wimbledon. They call it the "cathedral of tennis". And Genie calls herself a princess, sometimes. Well, there was a princess in the cathedral today. Full Story
Kate & Pippa open July

Princess Catherine visited with students and staff at M-PACT Plus Counselling today in London while her sister was broadcast on US morning television as part 2 of her interview with Matt Lauer aired on The Today Show. Anything good? No. Boring. How boring? Pippa Middleton managed to make even Big G sound boring. Full Story
A loving royal gaze

The Order of the Garter service happened yesterday in London where both Prince Charles and Prince William were in attendance. Princess Catherine was there to support her father-in-law and husband. Camilla couldn't come because she's sick. She's done this before, Katy Cambridge, but if it were me and Jacek, we would not be able to keep a straight face looking at all those feathers. Full Story
Big G has a weapon

Big G was also at the polo match yesterday to watch his dad and his uncle ride around on horses. He didn't seem all that interested. Dressed in seersucker pink, Bruiser, as usual, was a handful, determined to get out of his mother's arms so that he could wrap his chubby fingers around a mallet and go find someone to club in the head. Full Story

Trooping The Colour happened this weekend in London to celebrate Her Majesty's birthday. Everyone has to show up for this one. Princess Catherine rode her with mother and brother-in-law to Buckingham Palace. Who wouldn't want to ride with Hot Harry? When you ride with Hot Harry, you're on the party bus. Full Story
A garden party and Grandfather's birthday

Prince Philip is 93 years old today. Maclean's rounded up some of his good and so-bad-they're-good moments over the years. The Duke celebrated his birthday by going to work. At the Queen's garden party. It's quite a contrast in comparison to those Cambridges, William and Catherine, who've come under some criticism lately for being lazy. Full Story

Video: Federal Audit Claims Erie County Owes FEMA Over $48 Million
BUFFALO, NY-- A federal audit claims Erie County owes FEMA millions of dollars from the surprise October Storm in 2006.
WEB EXTRA: Click here to read the audit
Erie County was originally awarded over $55 million to help cover costs from the storm.
The surprise storm dumped nearly two feet of snow overnight, causing several trees and limbs to fall, as well as power lines through Erie County and other parts of WNY.
New York and then President George W. Bush declared Erie County, and surrounding counties a major disaster.
The audit was conducted by the Office of Inspector General and released last month.
Here are some of the audit findings:
According to the audit, it states Erie County officials said they spoke with FEMA to get acceptance prior to implementing the local
contracting decision. However, auditors say the County could not substantiate the claim or provide the names of the FEMA officials who said that the County could disregard the Code of Federal Regulations in awarding contracts.
Erie County was under the direction of former County Executive Joel Giambra during the October Storm.
Reached by phone, Giambra told WGRZ-TV, "we did what we did in order to get trees off of peoples houses as quickly as we could--without waiting for a bunch of gypsy contractors to come from out of town."
Giambra added that, "FEMA officials didn't tell me anything as county executive, I made a statement that in a crisis, if there was an opportunity to use local contractors to help us with this clean up then, that would a be priority and a preference."
Current Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz defended Giambra, and called the audit flawed, and "legally wrong".
At Wednesday news conference, Poloncarz blasted both the findings of the audit and those who conducted it, who he predicted would be "reprimanded for issuing an audit that relied upon the wrong law."
The law Poloncarz (himself an attorney) cited was The Local Community Recovery Act of 2006, which was an Act of Congress amending the Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act passed and signed into law by President George W. Bush on 4/20/2006 as a direct response to Hurricane Katrina.
Poloncarz contends it specifically directed that in federally-declared disasters, local officials give explicit preferences for hiring local businesses to perform disaster recovery.
Poloncarz says that if the county did have to pay the money back, Erie County would not be able to and the county's credit rating could drop.
An opinion rendered by the Erie County Department of Law notes that the Stafford Act provisions and the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act of 2007 supersede the Code of Federal Regulations (44CFR 13.36(c)(ii)) provision cited by Federal Auditors as justification for the recoupment of federal disaster funding in relation to the October 2006 Storm.
FEMA has not yet demanded payment of the amount which the audit, prepared by the Department of Homeland Security Office of Inspector General.
Arlen Morales, a public affairs officer with the Office of Inspector General in Washington D.C. told Two On Your Side the agency stands by its conclusions. She also says her agency takes no role in making recommendations to other agencies (in this case FEMA) what they should do with their findings, and could not compel them to seek payment.
Congressman Brian Higgins has already written letters to both FEMA and the Office of Inspector General, suggesting to the latter that it should perhaps take a look at quality of work being done by its auditors, while recommending to FEMA that it not try and recoup the money.
Congressman Chris Collins and Senator Charles Schumer also think that Erie County shouldn't have to repay the money.
"$48 million...?" asked a surprised NY Governor Andrew Cuomo, when asked to comment on the audit's findings." That's...quite a big number, and a big problem. I'll have to take a look at it, I hadn't heard about it," Cuomo said.
Though federal emergency dollars were the subject of the audit, New York State acted as the pass through agency for the money to Erie County in the aftermath of the October 2006 storm.
Poloncarz said Cuomo and others dealing in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy and relying on FEMA's assistance would be wise to heed what is happening here, and to pay close attention to regulations which "these auditors apparently aren't properly aware of."
Back in 2011, FEMA asked for payments back from some WNY residents who had received payment from FEMA following the storm.
The county has until the end of May to respond to the government's review.
