MASSENA - A crisp late summer day greeted the spectators who traversed up and down Main Street in the downtown Massena corridor to take in the sights and sounds of the Saturdays 6th annual Greater Massena Chamber of Commerce Harvest Festival.
There was plenty for them to see, with about 60 vendors lining both sides of the street, along with other groups that included the Boys and Girls Club of Massena, Massena Central School varsity cheerleaders, Massena Rotary Club, Massena Public Library, Holy Names of Jesus Academy, Trinity Catholic School, Massena Valley Garden Club, Knights of Columbus and Back the Pack.
The Massena Rescue Squad was on hand offering youngsters an opportunity to try their hand at ring tossing. So were members of the Massena Masons, who were once again set up to offer their child identification program.
Mark Bogdan set up a life-sized Candy Land game again this year, with youngsters moving from square to square to meet some of the games characters and retrieve candy in the process.
I love kids. This is my prom dress. Anytime I get a chance to wear it I do it, said Jocelyn Bogdan, who portrayed one of the characters on the game board.
In the town hall parking lot, Cubby T. Clown was making balloon creations, and youngsters were getting their faces painted, enjoying two bounce houses, taking a pony ride or petting some of the other animals that were on hand.
Nearby, the first-ever Zucchini Car Races were taking place, with decorated zucchinis fitted with wheels whirring their way down a track for a chance to be named the fastest, slowest, most creative or scariest.
Members of the Boys and Girls Club of Massenas Board of Directors were letting youngsters have a field day with chalk, inviting them to create some art in a roped-off area of Main Street near the theater. They could either draw something freehand or use stencils that were provided by board members. A sign on tent used by club members read, Great Futures Start Here.
By the end of the day, the area was filled with artwork, along with a message written in chalk - Help us open our doors. Donate today.
Were just creating a fun activity for kids, board member Patricia K. Wilson said. Its an opportunity tell about the Boys and Girls Club coming.
Board members are aiming to have their doors open in May 2014 at the former St. Josephs Social Hall on Bayley Road.
Ms. Wilson said theyve started their capital campaign to raise money to open and sustain the club, but they also wanted to raise awareness about what it could offer kids in the community.
This helps us get the word out, she said.
Theyve already received words of support from community members, according to Ms. Wilson.
Its very impressive to us the number of people who step up and say, We need it this year, she said. The need is great. One in four kids is being born into poverty in Massena.
The club can serve to help students achieve things not just in their personal lives, but also in school.
It gives kids the power to be better in school, Ms. Wilson said. It gives good kids a chance to be great.
She said the club has a number of additional events planned in the coming weeks and months, as part of their Campaign for Kids: Foundations of our Future.
Thomas J. Sullivan, executive director of the Business Development Corporation for a Greater Massena, was set up near the town hall to promote the Massena Downtown Coalition, which is looking to revitalize the downtown corridor through a number of initiatives.
The Downtown Coalition has many different subcommittees, Mr. Sullivan said.
They include the Anti-Blight Task Force, Downtown Massena LLC, Blue & Green, Marketing & Recruitment, New York Main Street Grant, National Register Historical District, Parking and Massena Theater.
Mr. Sullivan said they were always looking for more assistance in those various efforts.
Were looking for volunteers, anyone that wants to participate. We meet on a fairly regular basis, usually once a month or sometimes twice, he said.
For Saturdays effort, Mr. Sullivan said. Were just trying to create an awareness of some of the things in the community were trying to stay engaged with.
Their plans will eventually focus on more than just the downtown area, he said.
As we continue to move forward, its not just about downtown, its about the Greater Massena community, he said.

The company trying to change a Vermont decision is citing a study published by the National Academy of Sciences that concludes that tar sands oil is not as corrosive to pipelines as some environmentalists claim.
MONTPELIER, Vt. (AP) _ A new study published by the National Academy of Sciences says some environmentalists may be overstating fears about the corrosive effects of tar sands oil on pipelines like the one across northern New England.
The Portland Pipe Line Corp. is using the study in the company's bid to get Vermont officials to change a recent decision that reversing the pipeline's flow would require a new state environmental permit.
Fears of pipeline corrosion by tar sands oil have been cited by opponents both of the northern New England pipeline reversal and the Keystone XL pipeline proposed to carry tar sands oil from western Canada to refineries in Texas.
A lawyer with the National Wildlife Federation says the study missed several key issues.

New Lipscomb basketball Coach Casey Alexander is inviting all former Lipscomb basketball players and program assistants to join him for a luncheon on Sunday, June 23 at 1:00 p.m. The complimentary meal will take place in the Hall of Fame Room in Allen Arena. All former players and program assistants are asked to RSVP to email@example.com or 615-479-3794
Richard Taylor, Class of 1987 and member of Lipscomb's 1986 NAIA National Championship team is helping organize the event.
" With the hiring of Coach Alexander, Bison Basketball has opened a new chapter in Lipscomb's history," said Taylor. "Casey has no doubt demonstrated that he understands what it takes to establish a program, teach the game, and mentor young men. I think it is a very exciting time for Bison Basketball,"
"I hope everyone agrees that this is an important time for all Bisons to stay connected to the program and establish a connection with our new coach," Taylor continued. "I hope we will have a great turnout to support Coach Alexander. I have already heard Casey say several times that the players of the past are why Bison Basketball is great and that involvement from past players and program assistants will have a significant impact on the program in the future. I agree with him and I am excited that he feels this way!"
Coach Alexander's goal is to gather as many former players and program assistants and share his vision for the Lipscomb basketball program and hear from former players about the dreams they have for Bison basketball.
Players are encouraged to share event details with their teammates and other Bison players they stay in contact with on a regular basis.
Former players unable to attend the event are asked to share with the Athletic Department contact information for future Bison Basketball events. Also, if you would like to send Coach Alexander an e-mail you can do so at: firstname.lastname@example.com

2011. Brazil. Eduardo Nunes. 128 min.
New York premiere

Theater 2 (The Roy and Niuta Titus Theater 2), T2
2011. Brazil. Directed by Eduardo Nunes. With Simone Spoladore, Raquel Bonfante, Julio Adrião. On her deathbed, a young woman named Clarice gives birth to a baby girl, also christened Clarice by an attending bruxa (witch). Spirited away to a remote marsh village set on stilts, the infant is replaced that very day by a young girl, also named Clarice. As the other inhabitants of the village experience a day like any other, Clarice lives her whole life in the span of 24 hours—yet (as the film's vast black-and-white panoramas suggest) even a lifetime so compressed remains impossible to fully grasp or contain. In Portuguese; English subtitles. 128 min.

Naval Academy YP Squadron Leadership Changes Hands
Posted on: May 01, 2013 08:00 EDT by MC2 Alexia Riveracorrea
The Naval Academy held the Spring 2013 Yard Patrol Craft Squadron change of command ceremony April 30 in Mahan Hall to recognize the relief of the squadron commodore and four YP commanding officers.
Midshipman 1st Class Charles Johnson was relieved by Midshipman 2nd Class Colin Schuhlein as YP squadron commodore.
Guest speaker Cmdr. Doyle Hudges, chairman of the Seamanship and Navigation Department shared a few words on leadership at the beginning of the ceremony.
"As smart, articulate, intelligent and capable leaders, you need to ensure and help others see and understand where it is that you want them to go. What seems perfectly clear to you may not make sense to them," said Hudges. "It is also important to find out what makes your men and women excited, frustrated, distracted, angry, scared and happy."
Hudges congratulated both commanding officers for their exceptional job.
"The drive, energy and enthusiasm of the men and women I had the privilege to lead - every success this semester has been the result of that. I am going to miss this job, this academy, the experience, and the shared camaraderie," said Johnson.
The new squadron commodore said he was humbled and honored to be selected to lead next semester's YP squadron.
"There is no better place to develop ourselves morally, mentally and physically," said Schuhlein.
Johnson was presented with a naval officer's sword on behalf of the Surface Navy Association as a symbol of his hard work and dedication as YP commodore for spring semester 2013.

Jefferson County is the fastest growing county in the state, percentage-wise, according to estimates released Friday by the U.S. Census Bureau.
The estimates, which are based on a study of administrative records instead of the exhaustive canvassing methods employed during the decennial census, say that the population here has grown from 116,229 in 2010 to more than 120,000 in 2012.
That continuing growth is no doubt a boon for the north country, but the increasing population has brought some of the concerns of a bigger city to an area that traditionally has thought of itself as being primarily rural in nature.
In October, the U.S. Census Bureau declared the greater Watertown area, which includes parts of Dexter, LeRay and Carthage, an urbanized area with a population of 57,840.
While that designation may bring increased opportunities for funding, it also has unleashed a series of administrative requirements that have caused public officials no small amount of confusion and consternation over the last few months as theyve struggled to make sense of a slew of new acronyms, including MPO, MSA and MS4.
At a General Services Committee meeting last week, county legislators voted to approve membership in a federally mandated Metropolitan Planning Organization, or MPO, which will coordinate federally funded highway, bridge and transportation initiatives in the new urbanized area. The Watertown City Council still is deliberating on the agreement and is scheduled to vote on it March 26 during a special meeting with a Department of Transportation representative. The agreement must be passed by then before being signed by Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo or officials risk putting federal highway funds in jeopardy.
Meanwhile, planners and municipal representatives have been trying to wrap their heads around separate municipal storm sewer system, or MS4, permits, which are required in the urbanized area by the state Department of Environmental Conservation and the Environmental Protection Agency and could have a huge financial impact, especially in smaller municipalities that border the urbanized area who dont have engineers on staff to ensure compliance with the new regulations.
To that end, the MS4 permits may involve the Jefferson County Soil and Water Conservation District, a state- and county-funded agency that helps farmers comply with environmental requirements. With a water quality technician on staff, the district is uniquely suited to help bring municipalities up to speed with the permits. That singular ability may help revive the district, which has fallen on hard times after its former executive director engaged in questionable financial tactics to stave off insolvency.
And the county as a whole is waiting to see if the White House Office of Management and Budget will declare it a Metropolitan Statistical Area, or MSA, which could have significant effects on how federal housing money is spent in the city of Watertown and its surrounding communities.
Despite the headaches, county officials are optimistic that the increasing population and the new designations will bring mostly good things.
In the short term, there probably are some complications. Theres clearly going to be a learning curve over the next couple of years. ... But this is all good information. I view it as very, very positive, said County Administrator Robert F. Hagemann III.
They are a more general indicator of population trends that can be used for planning and in determining whether were a growing community or not, said County Planning Director Donald R. Canfield.
The estimates also provide fodder for the Jefferson County Industrial Development Agency, which uses the data to attract employers and retailers to the area.
Its one of the pieces of evidence we use to say to businesses that its good to be here, said JCIDA CEO Donald C. Alexander. It may not be the strongest evidence, but its important evidence nevertheless.
The figures are used to show industrial and commercial enterprises that the workforce and talent pool of the area is increasing and that there are expanded commercial and cultural opportunities in the area.
The data also reflect a continuing trend of growth in the area that has been observed since 2004, when the Third Brigade Combat Team was created at Fort Drum, according to Mr. Canfield.

The ability to make mobile payments straight from your mobile device such as unlocked Samsung Galaxy S Fascinate, iphone 4 is something that we have seen a lot of companies playing with over the course of the last few months. With Google launching their latest Google Wallet application that will allow for users to make mobile payments by utilizing a number of different credit card processing companies, it now appears that Verizon is going to be integrating mobile payments along with American Express and other daily usage. The agreement that was put in place today will allow for wireless customers to make mobile payments straight from their mobile devices by utilizing their Serve account, which is the equivalent of PayPal which was opened by American Express a short time ago. It is clear that mobile devices are heading in the way of mobile payments, and agreements like this are going to be a part of making a mainstream technology in the future.
This is probably going to be one of many agreements that we see from companies in the very near future. As we inch closer toward a mainstream system for mobile payments, it is clear that companies like Verizon are looking to better and more easily put together a system that allows for them to open a mobile payment to as many of their users as possible.
The Serve system that American Express released earlier in the year is supposed to rival PayPal and open up mobile payments of more users through the American Express platforms. It will be interesting to see if they are able to will popularize the mobile payment platform through aggressive expansion moving forward. Putting an appropriate amount of time and effort into learning how to make mobile payments will definitely benefit users moving into the future, as it is clear that the mobile industry is heading toward mobile payments.
PureMobile carries wide range of unlocked android cell phone and cell phone accessories such as Bluetooth Headsets.

Shera L.United StatesHairBlondeNormal HairDry HairCould Have Been Designed Better!As another reviewer stated the elastic rubber band broke on first use. I just wrapped the mesh over and bobby pined it into place. You need longer hair that has a lot of body/volume for this, possibly an extension piece if you lack either of those. Also the bun has two sides that are thicker than the rest where the seam has been wrapped and appears lumpy. All in all it's not bad, but $15 could have gotten me better quality for a piece of MESH!

ErinHairBlondeNormal HairUnusableWhile the texture of the product is great and holds my hair on, it has several MAJOR flaws. The elastic that holds it in the shape of a donut broke the very first time I tried to use it. Also, it is so large that (despite having hair that is about 4 inches past my shoulders) I did not have near enough hair to cover it up when trying to make my bun. I ended up deconstructing the product and making two separate hair pieces out of it with some scissors, a needle and thread. By the time I paid for shipping it was about $18. I have much better luck using my $1.50 sock that I've rolled into a hair donut.

LaurenBaltimoreHairColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairSo Glad I Found ThisThis is so easy to use, inexpensive and I get so many compliments every time I use this handy accessory. I bought this with the matching bobby pins and the outcome is a stylish, neat and professional bun that you can rock day or night. I love this because I don't always feel like spending alot of time on my hair in the morning before work. This is perfect for those days your hair is dirty or uncooperative. Tip: I originally bought the large size and had to return it for the small. I have thick, little longer than shoulder length hair and I didn't have enough hair to cover the large donut.2 out of 2 shoppers thought this review was helpful.

The Harvest (La cosecha)
Every year there are more than 400,000 American children who are torn away from their friends, schools and homes to pick the food we all eat. Zulema, Perla and Victor labor as migrant farm workers, sacrificing their own childhoods to help their families survive. THE HARVEST/LA COSECHA profiles these three as they journey from the scorching heat of Texas' onion fields to the winter snows of the Michigan apple orchards and back south to the humidity of Florida's tomato fields to follow the harvest.

PAWTUCKET — Branch Street, a quiet road with a half-dozen houses located near the Blackstone River and the Pawtucket Water Supply Board's treatment plant, is slated to get a 30-unit affordable housing complex.
While the project, sponsored by the Pawtucket Citizens Development Corporation (PCDC), is awaiting final approval from the city on zoning issues, it appears to have support from many city officials and board members. Yet, a couple that owns a multi-family house next to the wooded lots where the complex will be built is angry about the proposal, and claims the city is overlooking their concerns about too much density and the loss of open riverfront space.
According to PCDC officials Nancy Whit and Andrew Pierson, the housing will feature three buildings at Branch Street and East Street containing a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments (two will be handicapped accessible). Whit categorized the project as being "affordable housing for working families" with rents of between $700 and $850 a month. The housing project is being funded through a combination of private and public investors.
According to Planning Director Barney Heath, the project has received approval from the Riverfront Commission and conditional approval from the Planning Commission, with some minor issues left to be resolved such as landscaping and storm water runoff.
The proposal still faces another public hearing for a special use permit from the Zoning Board of Appeals for dimensional relief for parking and having more than one building on a lot. However, it appears to have cleared most hurdles in the permitting process and looks to be on track for final approval, with construction set to begin in about a year.
Unhappy with the plan are Steve and Deb Foisy, who own a multifamily apartment house at 48-50 Branch St., directly abutting the proposed housing site. Although now living in Seekonk, Steve Foisy said he is a Pawtucket native and longtime resident who has owned the rental property since 1980.
Foisy said he is concerned about the number of units, saying the density will change the now-quiet street for his tenants. He said he would rather see single- family homes built on these lots, instead of 30 low-income rental units.
Moreover, Foisy said he objects to the construction on the wooded riverfront lots, and questions why both city officials and the Riverfront Commission are so agreeable to the housing project.
"I thought they were trying to protect the river area. Save the river and protect open spaces," said Foisy. "With all the old mill spaces and vacant property in this city, why do they have to build here? Is this the best they can do for the river?"
Foisy said he can't figure out why the Riverfront Commission, in particular, went along with the idea. "Once this riverfront property is taken, there will never be open space here again." He said that he and his wife spoke against the project at the public hearing, along with another resident who was not an abutter, but who echoed their concerns about preserving the riverfront space.
Heath said the project involves land that is owned by the PCDC and another parcel that the agency has an option on through the Pawtucket Redevelopment Agency. He said the project was discussed by the city's Riverfront Commission last week and the building design was given the go-ahead. A public hearing was also held recently with the Planning Commission, and Heath acknowledged the concerns that were raised by the Foisys and another city resident.
"This plan preserves a good portion of the riverfront area," said Heath. "The housing is going up on Branch Street with the parking lot below." Plus, the area by the riverfront will be preserved because DEM will have jurisdiction in terms of this."
Heath added, "It is my belief that this project doesn't take away from the riverfront. It might make that area more desirable and less subject to illegal dumping." He added that the PCDC has a proven record with the city in building affordable housing that is both attractive and well maintained.
Nancy Whit, executive director of the PCDC, stated that the housing complex will have a positive impact on the neighborhood. "That property right now is in rough shape. There has been lots of dumping of trash and litter. This project will be a significant improvement and will help revitalize the neighborhood," said Whit.
As to Foisy's complaint about losing riverfront access, Whit said there will actually be more of it when the project is completed, because the apartment buildings have been situated to allow for open space to accommodate the East Bay Bicycle Path to run by the river. There is also a buffer zone along the river required by the Department of Environmental Management (DEM). "We're not impeding any access from East Street to the river, and we'll be improving existing public access," she stated.
Pierson added that while the site is empty now, older city records show that there were once numerous structures there, both residential and commercial. He said the site actually comprises 11 real estate parcels, with seven on Branch Street and four on East Avenue.
As to the concerns about too much density in the neighborhood, Pierson said the proposed project is within the legal limits that the city's zoning ordinance allows, and is actually less dense than the maximum requirement.
City Council President David Moran, the councilor for that district as well as a member of the Riverfront Commission, said he had spoken with the Foisys about their concerns. However, he said he agrees with the proponents of the project that the housing will serve to enhance the neighborhood rather than detract from it.
Moran said he has met with PCDC officials on the project, has seen the plans, and has toured the site. He said that the Riverfront Commission also discussed the matter fully. He said the housing appears to be within the legal zoning requirements, and contains provisions for preserving access to the river.
"At this point, I'm satisfied as the district councilor," said Moran. "From looking at the plans, I think it will be a good fit for that area. In my opinion, it would be a major improvement to what is there right now."
Moran added that when completed, the project should offer residents greater opportunity to enjoy the river, particularly with the bike path. "Hopefully, this will bring some more exposure to that area. It's a beautiful area, but forgotten," he said.

How Advantage II Works
Use Advantage II monthly to kill fleas on your cat. One of its active ingredients, imidacloprid, acts on the nervous system of the flea to cause paralysis and subsequent death. The other active ingredient of Advantage II is pyriproxyfen, an insect growth regulator (IGR) that, in combination with imidacloprid, kills all flea life stages on the treated cat and its surroundings.
Protecting your cat from fleas is important.
Part of keeping your cat healthy means year-round flea protection. That is because flea bites may:
- Cause discomfort for your cat;
- Cause irritation, which may lead to skin infections;
- In some cases, cause an allergic skin reaction;
- Transmit other disease-causing organisms, including tapeworms;
Advantage II:
Advantage II kills all flea life stages following contact with an Advantage II treated pet and protects against flea infestations for up to one month.
- Kills fleas through contact so fleas don't need to bite to die;
- Kills fleas within 12 hours of initial application;
- Kills reinfesting fleas (e.g., newly hatched fleas jumping back on the cat) within 2 hours;
- Is waterproof;
Millions of pet owners have used effective Advantage Topical Solution to control flea infestation on their pets. Now its successor, Advantage II, kills even more flea life stages.

BOOTHBAY HARBOR, Maine (NEWS CENTER) - People in the Boothbay region will begin a new era of local health care on Tuesday. For the first time in more than a hundred years, they will not have a full time hospital.
As of Tuesday, St. Andrews Hospital will close its 24-hour a day emergency room, and replace it with a 12-hour per day urgent care center. There will also be no more in-patient beds at St. Andrews, just outpatient rehab and other services.
The change was announced in August, 2012 by Lincoln County Healthcare, which owns St. Andrews and Miles Hospital in Damariscotta. The organization says there simply is not enough demand during the overnight period to maintain the emergency room.
Hospital CEO Jim Donovan told NEWS CENTER the St. Andrews ER typically handles a very small number of true emergency cases, and says it believes better emergency care can be provided at Miles Hospital, where they treat more patients. A local group called the Boothbay Region Health and Wellness Foundation has been fighting the change, but hasn't been able to find any legal mechanism to prevent the closing. Members of the Foundation say losing their full time ER will pose a risk to patients. "I think somebody's going to die in the back of an ambulance," said Margaret Perritt, one of the leaders of the Foundation. Perritt said ambulances will no longer be allowed to take injured people to the Urgent Care facility, meaning long ambulance trips to Miles or Midcoast Hospital in Brunswick. CEO Donovan says the fears of those kinds of problems are "overblown".
The organization is actually merging the two hospitals to become Lincoln Health, with a Miles Campus and a St. Andrews Campus. Miles will continue to be a full hospital, with ER and other services. Lincoln Health is also shifting the St. Andrews "critical access" designation to cover the new organization, including Miles. Critical Access Hospitals receive that designation from the federal Medicare program, which then provides a higher level of reimbursement to assist small rural hospitals with expenses.
However, because Critical Access hospitals are only allowed to have 25 inpatient beds, Miles has been required to eliminate 13 inpatient beds. Critics say that will lead to a shortage in the county. Miles officials sent a memo to employees, saying they don't expect bed space to be a problem.
CEO Donovan said all these changes reflect the increasing pressures being felt by hospitals all over Maine, and that he expects other hospitals will be seeing similar changes.
The Health & Wellness Foundation is planning a gathering outside St. Andrews Tuesday night, after it closes at 8PM. Group leaders say they want a chance to "say goodbye to an old friend". Donovan says the hospital isn't going away.

Over a 24-month period, the experiences of LARC users will be compared to the experiences of those opting for their initial short-acting method. It is expected that 38% of the participants using short-acting methods will stop using them during the first year and be at risk of unintended pregnancy. In contrast, less than 20% of LARC users will want to have their contraceptive removed. Continuation rates will be measured and pregnancies will be tallied in the two groups to document any differences that emerge.

US indicts Kevlar competitor on criminal trade theft charges
October 18, 2012 | Kara Sissell
The US Department of Justice says a grand jury has indicted South Korea's Kolon Industries and five of its executives for criminal trade secrets theft. At issue is the alleged theft by Kolon of trade secretes related to DuPont's para-aramid fiber, used to make DuPont products sold under the Kevlar brand. The case is separate from a civil suit filed by DuPont against Kolon. In the civil case, a jury last year awarded DuPont $919 million in compensatory damages and DuPont is seeking a 20-year injunction barring Kolon from manufacturing or selling...

By Frances CunninghamSpring Glen
For 40 years I have been involved in the research, documentation and preservation of Carbon County's History. My love and interest in this work has been a motivation force in my life. I am concerned at this time of the potential destruction of the Bruno Farm at Helper, which is on the National Historical Register, with the Helper Interchange Sp-0006 (27) 231 Project as now designed.
Terrence Epperson, who did the work researching for Helper's Historical District in 1978-1979, made the comment that we in Carbon County were foolish because of our lack of preserving our history. His early work, along with documentation of other historical sites in the County by Nancy Taniguich, has added to the preservation of many historical sites.
I recently received a letter from Pamela Higgins, Archaeologist, UDOT Region Four Environmental, State of Utah Department of Transportation. In it she states that she has received no written documentation that opposes the proposed project, Voicing it publicly is not really considered. She says that in order to address our interests, concerned citizens need to submit in writing their concerns. Only one letter has been sent. You can write to Pamela Higgins, Archaeologist State of Utah Department of Transportation, 1345 South 340 West, Richfield, Utah 84701. You could also send a copy of this letter to Roger Roper, Deputy State Historical Preservation Officer, Utah State Historical Preservation Office, 300 S. Rio Grande, Salt Lake City, Utah 84101.

Meet Harold Fry, recently retired. He lives in a small English village with his wife, Maureen, who seems irritated by almost everything he does, even down to how he butters his toast. Little differentiates one day from the next. Then one morning the mail arrives, and within the stack of quotidian minutiae is a letter addressed to Harold in a shaky scrawl from a woman he hasn't seen or heard from in 20 years. Queenie Hennessy is in hospice and is writing to say goodbye.
Harold pens a quick reply and, leaving Maureen to her chores, heads to the corner mailbox. But then, as happens in the very best works of fiction, Harold has a chance encounter, one that convinces him that he absolutely must deliver his message to Queenie in person. And thus begins the unlikely pilgrimage at the heart of Rachel Joyce's remarkable debut. Harold Fry is determined to walk 600 miles from Kingsbridge to the hospice in Berwick-upon-Tweed because, he believes, as long as he walks, Queenie Hennessey will live.
Still in his yachting shoes and light coat, Harold embarks on his urgent quest across the countryside. Along the way he meets one fascinating character after another, each of whom unlocks his long-dormant spirit and sense of promise. Memories of his first dance with Maureen, his wedding day, his joy in fatherhood, come rushing back to him - allowing him to also reconcile the losses and the regrets. As for Maureen, she finds herself missing Harold for the first time in years.
And then there is the unfinished business with Queenie Hennessy.
A novel of unsentimental charm, humor, and profound insight into the thoughts and feelings we all bury deep within our hearts, The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry introduces Rachel Joyce as a wise - and utterly irresistible - storyteller.
©2012 Rachel Joyce (P)2012 Random House Audio
"When it seems almost too late, Harold Fry opens his battered heart and lets the world rush in. This funny, poignant story about an ordinary man on an extraordinary journey moved and inspired me." (Nancy Horan, author of Loving Frank)
"There's tremendous heart in this debut novel by Rachel Joyce, as she probes questions that are as simple as they are profound: Can we begin to live again, and live truly, as ourselves, even in middle age, when all seems ruined? Can we believe in hope when hope seems to have abandoned us? I found myself laughing through tears, rooting for Harold at every step of his journey. I'm still rooting for him." (Paula McLain, author of The Paris Wife)
"Marvelous! I held my breath at his every blister and cramp, and felt as if by turning the pages, I might help his impossible quest succeed." (Helen Simonson, author of Major Pettigrew's Last Stand)
Short, Simple, No Spoilers
"Wonderful Walkabout"
This is a lovely tale of an ordinary man setting off on a pilgrimage to visit an old friend who is dying. Harold believes as long as he walks, Queenie Hennessey will live. Without proper shoes, a map, or any plausible plan, he embarks on this journey. In a rut for the past 20 years, Harold is like a hamster jumping off the wheel, taking a new direction. He searches the recesses of his mind exploring his passionless marriage; history with his son; and his relationship with Queenie. Along the way, he encounters numerous people who both help and exploit his trek. Nothing is obvious or predictable.
You'll want to take your time with this one to appreciate the language and turn of phrase. One of my many favorite parts was the line, "Harold stopped measuring his journey in miles, but in remembering." The entire book was simply lovely and causes a bit of soul searching for the reader. Didn't rush through this one, savored all the text, and am a little wiser from the listening.
I hear voices. But maybe that's because there's always an Audible book in my ear.
"An Unexpected Treasure."
I didn't expect what this book delivered. I thought it would be syrupy, preachy and maudlin - three of my least favorite attributes in a book. Because a few reviewers I follow recommended it, I bought it. I was engaged in the story in less than 5 minutes and found none of the treacle I dreaded.
This isn't a big book, but it certainly covers a lot of territory. I was taken with the way some age-old themes - like forgiveness and grief - were merged with such of-the-moment issues like social networking and a fickle society searching for the next new thing.
This story has authenticity and heart. It avoided the cliches that might have sunk it and emerged a real winner. I love the character of Harold Fry - partly because of how he was written and in equal measure because of the spot-on narration.
But I write for myself, for my own pleasure. And I want to be left alone to do it. - J.D. Salinger ^(;,;)^
"To Be A Pilgrim!"
"...and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth." - Hebrews 11:13
This novel reads like an inverted bildungsroman. It is a novel about the pilgrimages we all must take later in life and the penance that we all must finally pay. That indeed sounds like a dreary novel, but with Joyce's talent for prose and pacing this novel absolutely flows with funky characters and breathes with a gentle humor. For me, it was like I was reading a great novel by Peter Carey, or David Mitchell or Brady Udall. Those are the peers that she belongs with. The story of Harold Fry's pilgrimage is beautiful and the characters are vivid. Ultimately the book, like a soft hymn sings that we are all important to the people we come in contact with, no matter how simple and ordinary we may at first appear.
Jim Broadbent reads this novel with a nuance, liveliness, and sensitivity that one rarely find outside the theatre. One of the best narrations I've EVER listened to.
tired teacher
"A Great Story!"
What a delightful surprise to run onto this book! It will always be one of my favorites.
As Harold sets out on a walk of 600 miles to visit an old friend who is dying, he is totally unaware of what this journey will teach him about himself, his relationship with his friend and with is wife and son. It is a bittersweet story, but a story about personal growth, even late in life. I adore it. It is the kind of book I hope for every time I start a new one, but rarely find. I put it up there with "Water for Elephants."
I focus on fiction, sci-fi, fantasy, science, history, politics and read a lot. I try to review everything I read.
"Give it time to get going"
After the first chapter I really did not expect to like this book. The writing was simple, straightforward British with limited vocabulary and somewhat restrained characters, such is not generally my cup of tea. Yet the more I listened the more I wanted to go on.
Very slowly the proverbial stiff upper lip becomes lost in a journey of self revelation. While remaining very ordinary, the story becomes extraordinary. This does not wallow in faith or religion, instead it examines memory and the stories we tell ourselves and those we don't.
By the end I laughed and teared up several times. The end of the story stuck with me and for the next day or two I wished I was still reading this story. The narration was excellent, imbibing a lot of emotion into the story. I have not set in the car to finish a chapter in a long time, but I did that a couple of times with this book. Highly recommended.
"Breaks Your Heart In All The Best Ways - Must Read"
Yes. 'The Pilgrimage' is fiction at its best: everything about the characters and story connects and rings true. The language is lyrical but never flowery or sentimental.
The story could not exist without each and every character - no particular favorite.
His narration is flawless. Broadbent has the chops and humility to keep it simple at let the story shine.
I can't remember the last time a book (or movie) made me cry but this story elicited a surge of joy, gratitude, and amazement at the goodness that comes from 'little lives' well lived. I listened to the penultimate section standing completely still at the kitchen counter. The language so beautiful, so perfect - literally stopped me in my tracks.
I am normally quite careful to avoid selections that may be sad or maudlin since I skew a bit melancholy anyway ( I shall NEVER EVER read 'Marley and Me', for example) but this book broke my heart in the best possible way. Each character displays nobility and frailty while their story is told. The plot itself is intriguing as each character's perceptions bring more understanding to "the facts." Granted, I am writing this while still under the spell of the book, but I loved 'The Pilgrimage' as much as the book of Chekhov's short stories I've been reading this summer. I highly recommend this title for one and all.
Addicted to books, both print and audio-.
"Simply lovely"
I hesitated on this purchase because of its popularity (often I don't go for what everyone else raves about); also some of the negative reviews made me wonder. I was afraid it would be a hit-you-over-the-head-with-a-hammer tearjerker. I'm really picky: picky about good writing and extraordinarily picky about narration. I simply loved this book, and the reader was superb. Jim Broadbent strikes the perfect tone with the narration and his characterization of Harold. It is a beautiful story, read so tenderly, and I'm so glad I took a chance on it. I certainly hope Jim Broadbent does more audiobooks.
Hi all. I'm in my 50's (that's relevant, i think), and I favor fiction. I like the british sensibility, and was introduced to the Forsyte Saga through audible ... loved it! I happen to also like Chinese writers, but they are not well represented yet at audible. Looking to follow readers with similar tastes ...
"enjoyed the first 75% of the book"
i realize i am in the minority here, but i would not give this book 5 stars. the first 3/4 of the book was very good ... insightful, sweet and paced just right. i can't say the same for the last part. i wouldn't characterize mr. fry's walk as a spiritual journey, as some seem to ... i'd say more an education in human nature and self awareness. the narration is excellent.
"A generation Xer loved this book"
What can I say about Harold. He captures your heart and reminds me of the days of my grandparents and their stiff upper lip and absurd way of thinking of putting one foot in front of the other. I was captivated by the story even the pilgrim nonsense that is a brilliant way to show how social media is usually wrong and sensational seeking. The reader was excellent. Loved the book - it was GOOD and I haven't really listened to a GOOD book in awhile. Ignore the nonsense that people will post about it being a spiritual book and comparing it to this and that. It is a great story told by an engaging story teller.
Rating scale: 5=Loved it, 4=Liked it, 3=Ok, 2=Disappointed, 1=Hated it. I look for well developed characters, compelling stories.
"Cathartic journey"
I have read one review making the inevitable comparison to Forrest Gump's long run, and I confess that I had made that same connection. But while we could never really access Gump's inner world during his unplanned journey, we do get to travel intimately with Harold Fry, and that makes all the difference. From the beginning, when he is moved to tears by Queenie's letter saying goodbye, we realize that there is a much deeper story here than mere sadness over an old friend's illness. There are dark, secret waters flowing through Harold's memory, and that river sweeps him onto the road of self discovery with the reader in tow. Through the author's direct and deceptively simple language we connect with Harold's character and find a much more complex person than any of his own acquaintances would have suspected.
We also encounter a wider cast of characters, some major (wife Maureen), many minor, but through these encounters we learn more about Harold, and he about himself. When he is at his most alone and despairing point, I found connection to a different Tom Hanks role - Cast Away, especially when things he held precious on his journey were lost - as Hanks lost his WIlson. I could feel his spirit draining away.
The author has created a uniquely clear-eyed tone - poignant without sentiment, tragic (in places) without melodrama, and humor without comedy. Read with utter believability by Jim Broadbent, we grow to love most of the characters, even some of the apparently insignificant ones. This is a journey in the most common sense - one footstep after another. It is not an adventure. Readers who strain for the destination, impatient for journey's end will not get it. Those who arrive with Harold will be well rewarded.

Source: Phil Has "Definite Interest" In Knicks Job
Tommy Dee
A well-connected league source told me yesterday that Phil Jackson has "definite interest" in the Knicks coaching job, but that it's "too late in the season" for him to consider coaching this year.
There is also word that Jackson is preparing to have surgery.
I've been asked countless times why would Jackson come to New York and put his legacy on the line and deal with owner Jim Dolan. I can't say that that he will because I don't know but there is league-wide chatter that Jackson has his sites on finishing his career in New York where he started as a player.
James Dolan has certainly struggled choosing the right mix with the Knicks and had caught a lot of flack for leaving Glen Sather be the entire decade while running the Rangers. Dolan respects Sather's past championship acumen,which is exactly what Jackson would bring the the table.
Ken Berger of CBS had this important note in January as it related to the situation:
"The feeling is, all Dolan would have to do is ask, and Phil would say yes," a person connected to the former Lakers coach told me this week.
My intel is telling me the same thing, especially if the Nets land Dwight Howard and steal the spotlight, something Dolan knows can't happen when the team moves to Brooklyn.
Stay tuned.

SYRACUSE Just two days before the season opener, the Syracuse University starting quarterback competition is still a mystery.
But whether Drew Allen or Terrel Hunt line up under center, they will unquestionably have plenty of weapons surrounding them in the backfield.
Topping that list is the Atlantic Coast Conferences leading returning rusher junior Jerome Smith who became the fifth straight SU back to eclipse the 1,000-yard mark last season.
Whether or not he can repeat that feat could depend on how many carries he has to share with his teammates.
I think all those things will come as long as I keep getting better and the team keeps getting better, said Smith, who finished with 1,171 rushing yards last year, the fifth-most all-time for the Orange.
I think all the accomplishments and individual goals will get there.
But Smith said he is happy to share the workload, something that Curtis Brinkley (2008), Delone Carter (2009-10) and Antwon Bailey (2011) did not.
Its not as important as winning more games than we won last year, Smith said of the 1,000-yard milestone. If we all get 600 yards and we get to go to a better bowl game and win more games, thats probably better than just me getting a thousand yards and being selfish about it.
Smith, one of four of SUs elected captains, will have to split time primarily with senior Prince-Tyson Gulley, the ACCs third-leading returning rusher with 830 yards.
The Smith-Gulley pairing which combined for 2,001 rushing yards is the fifth-highest returning rushing tandem in the nation. They ranked third among returning backfield duos with 2,366 rushing and receiving yards combined.
Gulley showed that he could be ready for an even bigger role in last years Pinstripe Bowl victory over West Virginia, posting career highs of 26 carries for 213 yards to go with five catches for 56 yards and three total touchdowns.
First-year coach Scott Shafer, who was promoted from the defensive coordinator position after Doug Marrone left to coach the NFLs Buffalo Bills, isnt concerned about a logjam at the position.
I think we have a good plan both in the kicking game as well as the offensive side of the game plans to try to immerse the kids into different situations that we can plug them into, Shafer said. Its a good problem to have, but were creatively finding ways to get them on the field.
Add to that the enigma that is Ashton Broyld, last years tank back; Adonis Ameen-Moore; and a pair of freshmen that highly impressed the coaching staff during spring practice.
Broyld was touted as a multi-skilled back as a true freshman last season but struggled to find a regular role.
He was rumored to be in Marrones doghouse after losing a fumble late in a 17-10 loss at Minnesota. He sat three of the next four games then missed the last two games of the year due to injury.
Shafer has slotted Broyld as the starting H-back, where he too will require his share of touches out of the backfield.
I hate the world potential. Because it means you havent done anything yet, Broyld said. But I mean I havent done anything yet. Im just working and Im ready to show people.
In an effort to get all of the aforementioned players on the field as much as possible, Shafer moved Ameen-Moore to the fullback spot and has freshmen George Morris II and Devante McFarlane returning kicks.

How to Grill Pizza
5 Steps to Pizza-Grilling Success
Like us on Facebook
- Make sure your grill is hot! When it comes to pizza crust, the higher the temperature of your grill, the more blistery and chewably crispy your pizza will be. If you don't have a thermometer on your grill, then check the heat using the "Mississippi" test: hold your hand three inches over the grill grates, and start counting, "One Mississippi, two Mississippi, three Mississippi," and so on. If you can only count to two or three before the force of the heat makes you pull back your hands, then you know you've got your grill at 600ºF or higher.
For more pointers, keep reading.
- Know the basics. Brush your dough with oil. Then, once you've hand-stretched it or rolled it out, gently drape the dough over the hot grates. Cook until the dough puffs and grill marks begin to appear underneath, about one to two minutes. Using tongs, flip the dough over, then cook until the other side is slightly charred, another couple minutes. Then add your cheese and cooked toppings, close the cover, and allow everything to meld and the cheese to become oozy (this will take several minutes).
- Take advantage of the grill-oven hybrid method. If you're adding toppings that require cooking time, or if you've got limited grill space and time, then try starting the dough on the grill, adding your toppings, and then finishing the whole thing in a preheated oven. This works especially well with toppings such as raw sausage in a hot sausage, pepper, and onion pizza.
- Make sure your pizza's thin — but don't worry if it isn't the prettiest. A superthick crust will mean the possibility of an undercooked, doughy pizza. Roll or stretch your pizza dough out to no thicker than 1/8 of an inch. That said, don't worry if your pizza's not a perfectly rectangular or round shape. The more uneven and rustic, the better.
- Close the lid when your pizza's on the grill — always. It's the only way to trap in the smoky flavors of the grill, and it's also the surest way to make sure your cheese melts.
