HARASSMENT - BUCKTON - Massena-based state police have announced a fourth person was arrested on Sept. 4 when they responded to a complaint at 54 Scott Road that a National Grid employee was being harassed as he tried to perform his work at the property.
Troopers charged Edward Charleson, 55, of Winthrop with second-degree harassment. He was released on an appearance ticket.
Massena-based state police had previously reported they had charged Joshua W. Charleson, 29, and Jonathan C. Charleson, 30, both of Winthrop, with third-degree menacing after responding to a harassment complaint filed with troopers at 10:09 a.m. Sept. 4. Joshua Charleson was also charged with fourth-degree criminal mischief. Takisha Guyette, 22, of Winthrop was charged with second-degree harassment and resisting arrest in connection with that same incident. All three arrests were made at 54 Scott Road, Buckton.
Troopers said a National Grid employee had gone to the residence to do a shut-off because family members allegedly owed more than $10,000 on their utility bill. The group allegedly came out from the residence and began to harass and yell at the National Grid employee, according to troopers.
Joshua and Jonathan Charleson were charged for allegedly threatening physical harm to the National Grid employee, while Guyette allegedly threatened troopers and resisted arrest.
FALSE PERSONATION - POTSDAM - Canton-based state police charged Dylan J. Gardner, 17, of Malone with false personation Tuesday following an investigation into an obstruction of justice complaint filed at 6:02 p.m. Tuesday. He was arraigned in local court and sent to the St. Lawrence County Correctional Facility.
CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE - GOUVERNEUR - Gouverneur-based state police charged Cassidy L. Debien, 24, of Massena with two counts of seventh-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance following as stop at 1:41 p.m. Tuesday on Route 11 in the town of Gouverneur.
DISORDERLY CONDUCT - OBSTRUCTING TRAFFIC - MASSENA - A Massena woman struck by a vehicle in the early morning hours of Aug. 11 has been charged with disorderly conduct - obstructing traffic.
Troopers said Maria Lohns, 18, of 90 East Hatfield St., Massena, was charged Tuesday at her residence.
Massena-based state police had previously charged Christopher M. Terrance, 31, of 121 McGee Rd., Hogansburg, with leaving the scene of a serious injury accident and driving while intoxicated in connection with that same incident.
Police said Terrance was westbound on Rooseveltown Road when he struck a Lohns, who suffered a broken right leg and was taken by helicopter to the Vermont Medical Center in Burlington, Vt.
Police said Terrance left the scene and continued to drop off his friend Randa M. Martin, 49 County Route 45, Rooseveltown, where he then shut off the car and called his mother, Louise C. Jacobs, 121 McGee Rd., Hogansburg.
Police said Ms. Jacobs picked up her son and took him to Tribal Mohawk Police Department, where he turned himself in.
Terrances blood alcohol content was 0.13.
Terrance, in the statement he provided state police, said he had hosted an after hours party at his residence and had consumed approximately five glasses of wine on a night that had started at a cancer awareness biker rally.
He said he was taking Ms. Martin home and was near the Akwesasne Boys & Girls Club when she alerted him there were some kids on the side of the road. I remember looking to my right just after she said that and then heard a bang noise. I tried to swerve hard left. It was dark, and I never saw any of the kids. After I heard the noise, I panicked, he admitted, noting he took Ms. Martin to her residence, they briefly discussed the situation and she recommended he call his mother.
Ms. Martin told police it had been a mellow evening, and Terrance seemed fine when he offered to drive her home. She told troopers they drove past the first group of young adults and then struck a female that was walking in their lane of traffic. She was right in front of the headlights, Ms. Terrance told police, noting the sound she heard led her to believe they had only brushed the female.
Kaycee Sunday, 20, in her statement to troopers, said she and Lohns were walking toward the reservation in the oncoming traffic lane trying to get a ride to Massena. Maria was walking in the middle of the road, trying to flag down cars, she said.
Terrances mother reportedly drove immediately to the accident scene, assisted the victim of the accident and then went and picked her son up and took him to the St. Regis Mohawk Tribal Police station to report the accident.

On the 50th anniversary of a generation-altering event, New York Times bestselling author James L. Swanson turns his focus to the final days of our 35th President in a riveting and revealing recreation of November 22, 1963, the moments leading up to it and the tragic aftermath.
The Assassination of John F. Kennedy
by New York Times Bestselling author JAMES L. SWANSON
The "go-to" book for the 50th Anniversary
Fifty years ago, our country was jolted by tragedy: our 35th President was brutally murdered on an American street in front of hundreds of horrified witnesses. In END OF DAYS: The Assassination of John F. Kennedy, Edgar award-winning, New York Times bestselling author of the highly acclaimed MANHUNT: THE 12-DAY CHASE FOR LINCOLN'S KILLER, James.L. Swanson, offers a comprehensive understanding of this historic day, lending edge-of-your seat, storyteller's mastery to the subject. With fascinating, colorful detail culled from vast historic resources, Swanson sets the stage for his central drama: the unfolding of the private final hours of John F. Kennedy and Lee Harvey Oswald as their destinies converge in a rifle's crosshairs-one man bound for infamy, the other for myth. Told in Swanson's signature, thrilling, ticking clock narrative style, END OF DAYS tracks the seemingly inevitable, and equally improbable, collision course between two men that would change history, devastate a hopeful generation, and spur one of our country's greatest national mysteries.

Screening in 35mm as part of the series BIG BROADS AND MEEK MEN: THE FILMS OF RUSS MEYER.
Hitler-esque renegade-ex-Nazi-in-hiding Adolf Schwartz is murdered in his Northern Californian castle when someone drops a frenzied piranha into his bathtub while he's in it, but the film quickly turns its attention away from the resulting whodunit and instead tracks the sexploits of Margo Winchester (Raven de la Croix), who is new to town and quickly involves herself with pretty much every local man.
Though he wasn't responsible for the screenplay as a whole, the great Roger Ebert helped write the dialogue for Kitten Natividad's character, who functions as a kind of Greek chorus, in Russ Meyer's penultimate film.
A murder mystery à la Meyer. This film is completely insane.

CANTON Certified elections results released by the St. Lawrence County Board of Elections show that it was predominantly the countys smaller, more rural communities that pushed Republican District Attorney-elect Mary E. Rain to victory against Democratic incumbent Nicole M. Duve in the Nov. 5 election.
Taking home just over 50 percent, or 10,379 votes, of the total, Ms. Rain won significant majorities in towns such as Clare, DeKalb, DePeyster, Edwards, Fowler, Gouverneur, Hermon, Lisbon, Oswegatchie and Pitcairn.
Of the communities where votes cast totaled more than 1,000, Ms. Rain won only the city of Ogdensburg, with 60 percent of the vote, leaving Mrs. Duve to sweep the villages of Canton and Potsdam and win with a slight majority in Massena.
County Republican Committee Chairman Thomas L. Jenison chalked up the victory to Ms. Rains efforts to travel to even the most far-flung parts of the county during her campaign.
The Republicans got out the vote, Mr. Jenison said. That was our strength.
Compared with Mrs. Duve, who made up 34 percent of her total in Canton, Potsdam and Massena, Ms. Rain pieced together her victory in the margins, winning 36 percent of her total in the 20 communities that saw fewer than 600 people show up to the ballot boxes.
Mr. Jenison said Ms. Rains tactic of making house calls far away from the more populated regions of the county paid off, and he was impressed by the number of people he met on the campaign trail who had spoken personally with her.
Stockholm and Piercefield were effectively split evenly between the two candidates, leaving Ms. Rain to win 21 towns and the city of Ogdensburg with Mrs. Duve picking up nine towns.
Mr. Jenison said he expects the 2014 election to bring more voters to the polls, citing the gubernatorial election and other high-profile elections as major draws.
Were on a roll, and we certainly believe we can take a lot more, Mr. Jenison said of the county Republican Partys chances in 2014.
St. Lawrence County Democratic Committee Chairman Mark J. Bellardini could not be reached for comment Monday.

The Parameters of Pas Paltur
In a recent article "Pie Crusts,Pas Paltur and the Aseres Yemei Teshuva", several contemporary issues related to Pas Paltur, Pas Akum and Pas Yisrael were touched upon. The intent of this article is to provide the basic background, parameters and common applications of these halachos.
In the times of the Mishna[1], Chazal forbade us from eating Pas Akum - bread and bread-like items that were baked by non-Jews (even if said bread does not have any kashrus concerns[2]) in order to deter us from assimilation and intermarriage[3]. This prohibition applies even when intermarriage is not a concern, i.e. eating with a non-Jewish priest who has no children[4].
If however, a Jew took an active role in the baking process[5], including lighting the fire, stoking the coals under the bread being baked, or actually placing the bread on the fire, the bread becomes known as Pas Yisrael and is permitted, even lchatchila. In fact, as long as a Jew took some part in the baking process, even in some small way[6], including increasing the heat level even minutely, by throwing a toothpick into the fire or blowing on it, the bread is considered Pas Yisrael. However, several authorities qualify the latter leniency, maintaining that preferably one should not rely on these leniencies unless under extenuating circumstances; rather, one should strive to be actively involved in the baking process, assuring that the bread was truly baked by a Jew.
Current Application
In later years, due to the fact that many baking ovens were owned or operated by non-Jews, making it difficult to procure Pas Yisrael products, Chazal qualified this prohibition and created a new class of bread products - Pas Paltur, literally "Baker's Bread". This refers to bread products baked in a bakery or commercial setting, where there is no personal or direct contact between the baker and customer, thereby drastically reducing the chance of intermarriage, and is therefore permitted[7].
Some authorities, including the Rema[8], maintain that Chazal's hetter of Pas Paltur applies in all cases, even when Pas Yisrael is readily available. However, many decisors, including the Shulchan Aruch and the Shach[9], maintain that this hetter is only applicable if one cannot purchase Pas Yisrael of similar type, quality or price, and stress that one should otherwise strive to obtain Pas Yisrael exclusively.
However, it must be noted, even according to the lenient opinions, one should do his utmost to be stringent during the Aseres Yemei Teshuva[10] and on Shabbos and Yom Tov, and ascertain that all one's bread products are Pas Yisrael[11]. Nevertheless, if one is unable to obtain Pas Yisrael products during these special times, one may rely on Pas Paltur[12].
It is said in the name of Rav Moshe Feinstein that bread baked in a factory with absolutely no contact between the non-Jewish workers and the customer, is not included in the prohibition.[13] The Chazon Ish[14], however, was unconvinced, and maintained that a factory setting would not be considered any different than any other type of bakery. Common custom is to accept this leniency when it is combined with other questionable situations[15].
What is Considered "Bread"?
It is accepted that this prohibition pertains exclusively to bread products containing one or more of the five major grains: wheat, barley, oats, spelt or rye[16]; although it should be noted that the Pri Chadash[17] advances the notion that in far-off islands where all bread is made out of an inferior grain (ex. rice), this prohibition might possibly apply to it as well.
This din of "Pas" (bread) includes baked goods that have the form of bread (tzuras haPas)[18]. Following are various types of common foods and their status vis-à-vis this halacha:
Cake and cookies[19]- Some authorities are of the opinion that for cake to be included in this category, one must wash and make hamotzi if one eats enough and is koveya a seudah on it[20], while others[21] feel that it must also be made from a thick batter. Contemporary practice is to assume all cake and cookies are included in the category of "bread"[22].
Bagels[23]- Even though true bagels are first boiled, since at that stage they are not fit to be eaten until actually baked, they are included in the category of "Pas".
Pancakes[24]- Even though pancakes are "fried" in a frying pan, since the only oil used is to make sure they do not stick the pan, they are still considered 'baked", not fried, and still share enough similarities with bread to be considered "Pas".
Pretzels[25]-Since pretzels are made from dough and baked, they are considered to have "tzuras haPas" even though they are twisted into a unique, non bread-like shape.
Doughnuts'[26]inclusion in this category, however, is a matter of halachic debate - whether anything fried is considered to have a "form of bread", or if it depends on the thickness of batter. Many Poskim[27] maintain it depends on the batter - that a thick batter, even when deep fried, maintains its status as tzuras haPas, while others[28] are of the opinion that once it's fried it loses its status of "bread" and is therefore subject to the more stringent parameters of "Bishul Akum". All would agree that a thin batter deep fried would not be considered tzuras haPas. The Shulchan Aruch himself[29] cites both opinions as valid and does not rule conclusively. Rabbi Ovadiah Yosef[30] addressing the issue of buying kosher doughnuts in a restaurant maintains that one may rely on the opinions that they are considered "tzuras haPas" and are Pas Paltur.
Crackers[31] - Since crackers are made from flour and water and baked, they are considered bread-like even though they are much thinner[32]. Although some authorities[33], opine that snacks which are not "Fit for a King's Table" would not be included in the prohibition, the majority consensus[34] is to include them, as the Tur, Shulchan Aruch and their main commentaries do not seem to make such a distinction.
Noodles, couscous and farfel[35] - Would be excluded from this rule entirely, as they do not have a form of bread at all.
In conclusion, although the idea of buying bread possibly leading to intermarriage may seem farfetched to some, we can clearly see and appreciate to what extent Chazal were concerned about mingling with non-Jews. The message is clear: When one's goal is preserving the sanctity of the Jewish nation, we take no shortcuts. Just something to think about the next time you run out for some bagels or cookies.

[6] Rambam (Hilchos Ma'achalos Asuros Ch. 7, 13), Tosafos (Avoda Zara 38b s.v. v'assa), Tur, Shulchan Aruch and Rema (ibid. 9 and 113, 7). The Aruch Hashulchan (112, 27), and Kaf HaChaim (ibid. 60) however, hold that one may only rely on these leniencies under extenuating circumstances; rather, one should strive to do the actions mentioned above, since they are actually mentioned in the Gemara. Additionally, several Rishonim, including the Ramban (cited in the Ran 15b s.v. v'assa and v'af) and Rosh (Avoda Zara Ch. 2, 33) disapproved of relying on said leniencies, as throwing a toothpick into a fire does not really add much to the baking process. [This argument is partially based on how these Rishonim understood the hetter in the Gemara. The Rambam understood that the act of throwing a toothpick into the fire makes it recognizable that a Jew added something, albeit small, to the baking process, and that is sufficient. The Ramban and Rosh, however, maintained that the thrust of the hetter in the Gemara was that a Jew needed to be an active part of the actual baking process, and a toothpick's overall contribution is quite negligible.] This is also the Minchas Yitzchak's (Shu"t vol. 4, 28, 4) conclusion.
[7] Tosafos Avoda Zarah (35b s.v. michlal), Tur, Shulchan Aruch (ibid. 2). Rav Moshe Feinstein (Shu"t Igros Moshe Y"D 1, 48) ruled that if a Jewish-owned large commercial bakery needed to hire non-Jewish workers, even though the bread might actually have been baked by those non-Jewish workers, the bread does not have the status of Pas Akum, and is permitted to be eaten.

[12] Mishna Brura ibid. 1.
[13] Responsa by Rav Nota Greenblatt, published in Kovetz Mesorah (vol.1, pg. 94), who wrote that Rav Moshe agreed to this psak. It is also quoted in Shu"t Rivevos Efraim (vol. 5, 596) where he adds that Rav Reuven Feinstein confirmed that this indeed was his father's opinion. See also Shu"t Igros Moshe (Y"D 4, 48) where he rules similarly. This is a similar shitta to the Mahr"i Tzahalon (Shu"t 161, brought by the Chida in Birkei Yosef Y"D 112, 9 s.v. v'all).
[14] Cited in Shu"t Shevet Halevi (vol. 6, 108, 6). This is also the opinion of the Chida (above, s.v. v'ani, who does not agree with the Mahar"i Tzahalon's leniency.

However, Rav Moshe Sternbuch (Shu"t Teshuvos V'Hanhagos vol. 3, 248 s.v. sof) rules that by cake or cookies made from thin, runny batter that was baked by a non-Jew, me'iker din one may rely on the Shach's hetter, that it is not included in the prohibition.

Roads to Trails
Olympic Marathoner Meb Keflezighi trains on dirt
"I love running trails," Meb Keflezighi said in a recent interview I conducted via email ...
Photo courtesy of Sony Electronics
"I love running trails," said American marathon superstar Meb Keflezighi in a recent email interview. "I run trails not so much for the adventure, but as part of my training for the marathon and half-marathon."
If you follow American distance running at all, you'll know that whatever training he's doing is paying off—Meb has helped American distance runners regain a significant spot on the international running map.
Meb made history on November 1, 2009, when he became the first U.S. runner to win the New York Marathon since Alberto Salazar in the 1980s. Claiming four NCAA titles in the mid 1990s at UCLA, Meb continued with a professional career peppered with success. He represented the U.S. in the Olympics both in 2000 (the 10,000 meters, where he was 12th) and 2004 (the marathon, where he was second). Most recently, Meb took home the first-place slot at the 2012 Olympic Marathon Trials in Houston, Texas, when he crossed the line in 2:09:08, setting a five-second PR … at age 36.
But, what does it really take to achieve such outstanding success, and what does it have to do with trail running?

Midweek Madness - The Top Five Best Game-Day Entertainment Showings Ever
Rugby HQ's Top Five's are back and today as part of our Midweek Madness slot we're looking at their choice of the best ever unique, weird and wonderful pieces of game-day entertainment. You may have seen before, but most will be a first!
What we've done again this week is show you the other five that didn't quite make the cut, as Sean Maloney and the crew at Fox Sports were kind enough to share those too.
The Sharks girls were a shoo-in, but there's also some crazy fireworks, a parachutist getting caught on the crossbar (yes, you read correctly), and Jonah Lomu, er.. dancing?
You can see all of that and more on page two. If haven't noticed yet, we've now also given you the ability to view all pages as one, so simply click 'View All' when you see the option below a video.
In the Top Five this week there are some cheerleaders that were deemed too sexy, there's push ups on the ground and on surfboards, and there's chaos in Dunedin as the Highlanders' famous warrior mascot threw his weight about to protect a little person.
There's also a half naked lady presenting the match ball in Paris (see related posts for full video).
View the hysterical numbers 6 -10 that didn't make the Top 5

Naruto D20
Ad Closes: Nov 30 '12
Estimated Members Requested: 5
This is the first game I will try and run on Myth-Weavers, though I have played in several. If this fact bothers you feel free to not apply. In any case, I am willing to try.
If there is anything you aren't positive is allowed, feel free to ask and I'll answer when I can, I shy away from homebrew stuff, but there is no harm in asking.
I'm looking for 5 players who are able to post once per day. The players will make up two 3 man squads who at the start of the game are on a mission to deliver vital orders to the Village Hidden in the Sand.
By default Characters should be from the Village Hidden in the Leaves, but if you have a convincing enough story and reason to be on a Leaf Squad, let me know.
Game Description:
If they knew what I have done, they would call me an Angel, but they know only what I could do, and so I am called the Devil

Considering ordering some meals from PackIt & was wondering what your favorite is? Also, I will be ordering for a somewhat picky 13yr old, any recommendations?
For me its the burger wraps, gumbo and cheesecake.
I ordered a sample meal kit and loved everything so I just ordered 200 bucks worth of food from them.
What does the picky one like? The burger wraps are great. Most of what Packit sells is good though.....and often you can leave out an item, since it comes with packets for flavoring.
he doesn't knwo what he does & doesn't like... he picks & chooses. I think its more of a visual thing, once he thinks it looks or might taste gross he wont even try it.
Stephen,Are you still repackaging everything before you head out on a trip? Seems to be a lot of excess that has to be carried out otherwise. Oh, and did you ever get the Packit hot sauce out of your clothing after it exploded everywhere?
Hi Stuart,I do repackage most of the meals as there can be a few ounces of paper plastis and condiments which are not needed.I had forgotten completley that the sauce packets wheer under pressure and exploded when I open them.Lucky there was no bears around :-)
They're all habituated to the artificial junk in Mountain House. They wouldn't touch the Packit stuff with a bargepole, it'd be too much like shopping at Whole Foods.
Do they watch Fox new and drink Bud lite also?
Only when they're supposed to be hibernating. So, Stephen, would you recommend going with one of the samplers from Packit, or ordering a la carte?
Stuart, you've given me a great idea. I'm going to make a titanium bargepole to take with me when I'm in Glacier and Yellowstone. I can use it when bartering with the bears, and trade it for, you know, my life. Where else would a bear find an ultralight titanium bargepole to use for not touching a Packit Gourmet meal?
Hi Stuart,The Samplers where great for a first go but from now on will be ordering A la carte.
Gary, you could make it telescoping, tenkara style, for ease of transport. BTW hoping to make the meeting on the 18th, clients permitting.
I like the way you think, Stuart. Yes, I hope to see you on the 18th.
I just ordered some for an upcoming hike in April. Favorites include: - Austintacious Tortilla Soup - Zydeco Red Beans and Rice - Jumpstart Fruit Smoothies for breakfast - Creamy Italian Polenta with Sausage for breakfast - Dottie's Chicken and Dumplings - Tuscan Beef Stew with PolentaTheir food has a lot of flavor. They send spice packets so you can elevate the spice level without your son having to do so. Truthfully they're so good that you could order one and try it at home for dinner to see how it goes and then place your order for your trip. Their rehydrated food is much better than most of the food my "Practice" wife cooked when we first got married.
Jump Start Fruit Smoothie (Berry flavor) is the best breakfast I have ever had. Gives me great long lasting energy with a good combination of Carbs/Protein/Fat. I can use cold water, shake and drink so it prepares quickly with no fuss and super tasting.
The smoothies sure are nice.I just ordered enough food for the majority of my trips this year and it cost me $200, obviously will be bringing some fresh stuff from home also :-)

Salewa Shoes
When you need the support of heavy-duty hiking boots but the lightness and flexibility of a jogging shoe, Salewa shoes provide the perfect solution. Known throughout the mountaineering community as the go-to choice when you want stylish, functional footwear that's designed to last, the Salewa brand has long been a top choice of adventurers just like you.
For exciting journeys that take you to the top of the mountain, the Salewa Mountain Trainer GTX can carry you every step of the way with built-in shock absorbers and Goretex lining. If you want a shoe that will stand up to outdoor use but also transition well into everyday wear, the Ramble GTX Shoe is a popular choice. Even though it boasts 360-degree waterproofing and breathability, the Italian leather design makes it fit in almost anywhere.
This kind of versatility is common in the lineup of Salewa shoes we carry here at Rock Creek. No other company makes it quite as easy to move from one adventure to the next without requiring you to change your footwear.
Salewa Shoes and Quality Footwear Products
The Salewa name has been around since 1935, when it first started manufacturing mountain sports equipment that stood up to the harshest European weather. It wasn't introduced to the American market until the 1990s, when the Oberrauch Group acquired the company and introduced it into their large lineup of boots, sports gear, clothing, and mountaineering equipment.
Today, the Salewa brand is famous for offering shoes and boots for technical approach, mountaineering, trekking, and speed-hiking. The staff at Rock Creek is excited to offer these shoes and boots to you at affordable prices and with our low-cost and free shipping options.

top row: Blue Bird Blouse, Crossroads Button Down Shirt, Vanilla Bean Blouse
bottom row: Streamlined Kimono Cover-Up, Aniseed Skirt, Drifting By Dress
All I want to do right now is go shopping! The weather is so nice and I just want to wear these pretty things! I gave shopping up for Lent and it's been SO hard but I'm in the final week. It's been difficult but it was definitely a good thing for my wallet!
This weekend came and went too quickly. And nothing exciting happened! Saturday was all about doing taxes, which is never fun and Sunday I worked on these essays for grad school, also not fun. I'm excited though because this week is kind of short for me. It's spring break for my elementary school so Tuesday and Thursday are off! And then my last day working at the law firm is Wednesday. It's been a long time coming and while I'm sad to leave some of the people I know it's for the best. I have plans for lots of baking towards the end of the week because it's my brother's 21st birthday on Thursday and then Easter over the weekend. Sweets were another thing I gave up {almost impossible!} so I'm ready to satisfy my sweet tooth !
How was your weekend?

Nice shirt
Good looking shirt. Bought my husband the reddish brick color, it looks great on him. Always love men's Territory products, have not had as much luck with the women's line, but always super for my husband.
Arbor Vitae, WI
Simply Great
This was the first time I have ordered any items for my husband from your catalog. He absolute LOVES this shirt!! Great fit, classy look--and a pleasant change from the Pendleton Plaid wool shirts he usually wears--I'm washing it for the first time today and feeling very satisfied!!
Love the shirt. It's unique and that's what I like about it. Fit is true to size and didn't shrink. Came out of the dryer needing ironing.
KZ Kahuna
Looks like it needs ironing
I was so disappointed when this came out of the dryer - all other shirts from you look beautiful without ironing.
La Mesa, CA
Smiling Wife
Every time my husband puts this shirt on, I smile. Looks great on him, the XL fits great, and the red multi even conceals his messy eating habits. I plan to purchase the short sleeve version soon!
Mount Airy, NC
Tall sizes run short in sleeve
This is a great shirt, and my only complaint (also true of other TA tall shirts) is that the long sleeves in tall sizes are a little short for my 6'5"" body. LL Bean does not have these cool shirts, but their sleeves fit much better.
Las Cruces, NM
This shirt Rocks
Very nice fabric, color and presentation. Versatile enough for jeans, khakis or dress slacks.
Baltimore, MD USA
great shirt
nice colors with a good fit. just the right shirt for my next trip to Taos.
Wichita, KS
Great Compliment
I was in a very upscale men's store (nice casual long sleeve shirts are $175 and up) and was wearing this shirt. The proprietor came up to me and told me how much he loved my shirt. I'm glad it didn't cost me as much as what he was selling!
Norfolk, VA
Great Shirt
I love this shirt even if it was a bit pricy. The sleeves are a little long on me but what the heck my arms are short anyway. I recommend it to anyone.
the great state of Georgia
soft, light weight shirt, colors a bit more muted than shown, more a soft almost faded orange-red than red, a very comfortable shirt and unique striking design
Stand out in a crowd
Two things; first I'm 6'4"" and 250 so finding things that fit can be a challange. This shirt in XXL tall fit's like it was taliored. Love the colors and pattern. Great western look without being over the top.
Ooltewah TN
Too bad it wrinkles & is so lightweight
Bought this for my husband and it's an attractive shirt. We both like it, but it has to be ironed (never something we look for in clothing) and it is lighter weight than expected. It is a neat shirt, but it looks crisp in photos and is very soft in reality. It's a nice shirt, but it was still pricey on sale.
Great shirt
My wife gave this shirt to me for x-mas and I love it! Great quality and well made. Another great shirt from TA!
Exton, PA
Awesme Shirt
A great shirt. Unique color and design. Fantastic shirt for casual wear with jeans or business casual with a sport coat and slacks. I've recieved many compliments on this shirt.
Kansas City, MO
I have over 30 TA shirts. This one is very similar color wise to some of my old TA shirts. It is a little on the light weight side. I prefer the bulkier TA shirt sfor the winter as one can layer them. This shirt needs to be worn with an undershirt and not a long sleeve tee as it is more on the dressy side. Also, this shirt is a little pricey for what you get.
Another excellent shirt
What can I say? This is another great shirt from TA. It has a striking design, brilliant coloration and the cotton is super soft. It washed well and didn't require any special care. My husband looks fantastic in it! He wore it to India and received lots of compliments.

SALT LAKE CITY, UT -- (Marketwire) -- 01/10/13 -- Sub Zero Ice Cream & Yogurt (www.subzeroicecream.com), the company that has reinvented the ice cream experience with customized, flash-frozen ice cream that doesn't require freezers, will be featured on ABC's "Shark Tank" on Friday, Jan. 11, at 9 p.m. ET and at 8 p.m. MT.
Jerry and Naomi Hancock, the creators of Sub Zero, team up to pitch the panel of "Shark Tank" judges with their unique concept. During the show, many Sub Zero locations will be hosting in-store viewing parties with liquid nitrogen demonstrations and free samples.
"Participating on 'Shark Tank' is a big step for our growing brand," said Jerry Hancock, CEO of Sub Zero Ice Cream & Yogurt. "We have been steadily opening new franchises across the nation, and we're excited for the awareness this opportunity will provide. We invite people to come to the stores and share in this exciting opportunity with us."
Sub Zero creates a new customer experience with its unique flash-freezing cryogenics process. Customers choose from one of eight bases, 40 flavors and 35 different mix-ins and then watch as their creation is flash-frozen in a cloud of nitrogen at -321 degrees Fahrenheit. All customers, even those with dietary restrictions or preferences, will be able to design their own personalized ice cream from the base up.
Through Sub Zero's cryogenic process, the milk molecules stay small and the water molecules don't have time to become ice crystals, ultimately creating a smooth, creamy ice cream for the customer. Because Sub Zero stores don't use freezers, they save 25 percent on costs, allowing them to focus their resources on making the customer experience even better.
Jerry Hancock said, "We wanted to create a new kind of ice cream that combines science and deliciousness. It took more than two years of research to develop our unique freezing process, but all that hard work brought us the fulfillment that we believe redefines the way people look at America's most popular dessert."
More information about Sub Zero Ice Cream & Yogurt, catering, educational programs, and franchising opportunities can be found online at subzeroicecream.com
About Sub Zero Ice Cream & Yogurt
Sub Zero Ice Cream & Yogurt was founded in 2004 by chemist Jerry Hancock, and it has consistently grown to now have franchises in seven states. The Utah-based company combines an innovative flash freezing process with a unique customer experience where ice cream is made in a matter of seconds from a liquid base right in front of the customer. The company was listed in Entrepreneur magazine's 2013 Franchise 500 as one of the top franchise opportunities in the United States. For more information, please visit subzeroicecream.com.

Developing software for the Internet of Things (IoT) comes with its own set of challenges. Security, privacy, and unified standards are a few key issues. In addition, each IoT product is comprised of at least three separate application components: the software embedded in the device, the backend big-data service, and the mobile application for the end user's controls. Each component is developed by a different team, using different technologies and practices, and deployed to a different stack/target - this makes the integration of these separate pipelines and the coordination of software upd...

WebRTC is about the data channel as much as about video and audio conferencing. However, basically all commercial WebRTC applications have been built with a focus on audio and video. The handling of "data" has been limited to text chat and file download – all other data sharing seems to end with screensharing. What is holding back a more intensive use of peer-to-peer data? In her session at @ThingsExpo, Dr Silvia Pfeiffer, WebRTC Applications Team Lead at National ICT Australia, will look at different existing uses of peer-to-peer data sharing and how it can become useful in a live session to...

WebRTC has had a real tough three or four years, and so have those working with it. Only a few short years ago, the development world were excited about WebRTC and proclaiming how awesome it was. You might have played with the technology a couple of years ago, only to find the extra infrastructure requirements were painful to implement and poorly documented. This probably left a bitter taste in your mouth, especially when things went wrong.

You have your devices and your data, but what about the rest of your Internet of Things story? Two popular classes of technologies that nicely handle the Big Data analytics for Internet of Things are Apache Hadoop and NoSQL. Hadoop is designed for parallelizing analytical work across many servers and is ideal for the massive data volumes you create with IoT devices. NoSQL databases such as Apache HBase are ideal for storing and retrieving IoT data as "time series data."

Clearly the way forward is to move to cloud be it bare metal, VMs or containers. One aspect of the current public clouds that is slowing this cloud migration is cloud lock-in. Every cloud vendor is trying to make it very difficult to move out once a customer has chosen their cloud. In his session at 17th Cloud Expo, Naveen Nimmu, CEO of Clouber, Inc., will advocate that making the inter-cloud migration as simple as changing airlines would help the entire industry to quickly adopt the cloud without worrying about any lock-in fears.

Mobile messaging has been a popular communication channel for more than 20 years. Finnish engineer Matti Makkonen invented the idea for SMS (Short Message Service) in 1984, making his vision a reality on December 3, 1992 by sending the first message ("Happy Christmas") from a PC to a cell phone. Since then, the technology has evolved immensely, from both a technology standpoint, and in our everyday uses for it. Originally used for person-to-person (P2P) communication, i.e., Sally sends a text message to Betty – mobile messaging now offers tremendous value to businesses for customer and empl...

WEST CARTHAGE Carthage High School students will reap the rewards of $1.3 million grant from the 21st Century Community Learning Centers program.
CASEWorks, a college and career readiness after-school program, has been designed in conjunction with the grants requirements. It will benefit freshmen through seniors.
Were offering programs that arent available during the school day stuff theyre not able to do during the day because of the academic demands teachers have, said Marilyn Bish, the districts director of grants and projects.
Students may enroll in any of three 10-week sessions throughout the 2013-14 school year. Each session will feature four academies geared toward college and career readiness and students interests. Available academies are performing arts, community service, entrepreneurship, and science, math, technology and engineering.
Students will learn work skills relevant to their chosen academy, as well as financial literacy, social skills and how to do an interview.
The program will run from 2:06 to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. The first session begins Nov. 12 and runs until Jan. 24. The second session will begin in February, with the third picking up in April. An estimated 70 students can participate per session.
A very exciting part of the program is the entrepreneurship program, which is going to be led by Cornell Cooperative Extension. They will work with students to generate a business plan, product, to market that product and to fund future programs for CASEWorks, Ms. Bish said.
Community internships also will be open to juniors and seniors in the program.
Other partners with the program are Carthage Area Chamber of Commerce, Carthage YMCA and Onondaga Community College.
Carthage also has CASE Carthage After School Enrichment program for elementary pupils. CASE has grown from 20 children at the start of the program six years ago to more than 200.
CASEWorks will give students a vision of themselves now, and for the future, in the world of work and/or college, Ms. Bish said.
During each session, students also will be equipped with an iPad and given a family pass to the Carthage YMCA, 250 State St.
Students with conflicting schedules still will be welcome to join the group. However, they must be able to maintain an 80 percent attendance record.
The school will host a one-hour parent and student informational meeting at 5:30 p.m. Oct. 15 in the high school library.
Additional questions may be directed to Jeanne Korman at firstname.lastname@example.com, or by phone, 493-5123. Further details and registration forms are available at www.carthagecsd.org, under News.
The program is $10 to register. The fee helps cover costs that the grant does not, such as the free snack provided during meetings.
Volunteers also are being sought to assist educators in each academy.
However, scholarships are available. Forms must be submitted by Nov. 6. Students will be bused home.

The skyline of Edinburgh, Scotland's capital city, is dominated by the magnificent Edinburgh castle and while city is worth visiting for this view alone but there is so much more to see and do.
Typical Costs
- Hostel Dorm Beds: Edinburgh has several hostels you can expect to pay upwards of £15 per night depending on the season.
- Budget Hotel: If you prefer a budget hotel you might want to try the EasyHotel on Princes Street. It's very centrally located, the rooms are very basic but the beds are comfortable. From £30 per night.
- Cost Of Food: A cheap meal in a restaurant or bar will cost you about £12 for a main and a drink.
- Transport: The bus in Edinburgh will set you back £1.50 for a single trip anywhere in the city. A day pass currently costs £3.50. However much of the city is walk-able if you are fit and able.
Things To Do In Edinburgh
- Visit The Fringe Festival: The highlight of the Edinburgh tourist calender is the Edinburgh Festival that takes place in August. At this time of year the city is buzzing with all types of performance art. Be warned at this time of year the population of Edinburgh doubles so accommodation is very expensive during August. Traffic is also a problem during this month.
- Take a walk up Arthur's Seat: Edinburgh is the only city in the world to have an extinct volcano right slap bang in it's center. The royal mile runs from Edinburgh castle for 1 mile down the hill to Holyrood palace which is the Queens official residence when she is in Scotland. Holyrood park is the Queen's park that surround the extinct volcano known as Arthur's seat. The views from the top across the city are fantastic! Allow 3 hours for the walk.
- Visit Edinburgh Castle: Now tourist visit to Edinburgh is complete without at least taking a walk up the caste hill and into the castle courtyard. Great views here across the Princes street gardens to the New Town.
- Walk The Royal Mile: Although at times the shops can be a little tacky the oldest street in Edinburgh is full of charm.
- Dance The Night Away Ceilidh style: If you want to sample traditional Scottish culture you can party the night away at a Ceilidh featuring traditional Scottish music and dancing. Check out this bar/venue if you are interested.

|Brubaker Identified as Fire Victim
|Written by Steve Frank
|Friday, 22 March 2013 05:39
The official word came in late yesterday afternoon from Medical Examiner Dr. Brent Hall—that the fire victim from Wednesday morning's apartment fire was 23-year-old Christopher Alan Brubaker. The Boone native's body was found in the rubble of the apartment on Homespun Hills Road,
according to the Boone Fire Department. The cause of the fire is still under investigation of Boone Fire according to Captain Mike Teague. Brubaker graduated from Watauga High School and worked at Pepper's Restaurant and Black Cat Burrito. The fire call came in at 3:58 Wednesday morning as residents of the triplex apartment heard popping sounds and found flames coming from the upper portion of the structure. One man scrambled out of the basement while a woman, her exit blocked from the main floor by the fire, escaped with her dogs out of a window. Chris Brubaker's funeral is Saturday at Boone United Methodist Church.

You might want to see our book excerpt, Eight Ways to Use Video With English Language Learners
And check out The Best Fun Videos For English Language Learners In 2013 — So Far
Check Out my related New York Times post
Movies and television shows can be an effective tool for teaching and learning English (or, for that matter, any academic subject) if used strategically and not as a "babysitting" device.
I thought it might be useful to prepare a "The Best…" list resources that teachers might find useful related to using video in the ESL/EFL classroom. I've appreciated the suggestions that readers have offered and, even if they didn't make my list, I've the titles that they have recommended near the end of post.
Before I list specific movies or shows, I'll begin by some ideas, and sites, where you can get more recommendations on how to use video in the classroom.
I've hardly ever shown a video clip for more than ten minutes during one class period. There are many ways to use them, but I've primarily done so in two ways. One is just to show a clip connected to the theme we might be studying at the time, and then have students write what happened chronologically.
The other is a technique called "Back To The Screen" that I adapted from Zero Prep: Ready To Go Activities For The Language Classroom by Laurel Pollard and Natalie Hess. I pick a clip from a movie (the highway chase scene from one of the Matrix movies, for example. I then divide the class into pairs with one group facing the TV and the other with their back to it. Then, after turning off the sound, I begin playing the movie. The person who can see the screen tells the other person what is happening. Then, after awhile, I switch the groups around. Afterwards, the pairs need to write a chronological sequence of what happened, which we in class. Finally, everyone watches the clip, with sound, together. Students really enjoy activity.
Two excellent sites that offer countless other ideas about how to use videos in teaching and learning English are Ressources pour le College and The English Learner Movie Guide. The resources they offer are just too numerous to list here. In addition to teaching activities, you can get suggestions for which movies might work best for specific purposes.
You might also be interested in The Best Movie Scenes To Use For English-Language Development.
Now I'll list what I believe to be The Best Popular Movies/TV Shows For ESL/EFL (by the way, links usually are connected to Amazon). I'm doing ranking a bit differently from my past lists. All the ones I list I think are comparable in terms of usefulness in the classroom. However, there are two that I think are stand-outs. I'll save them for the end.
Here are my picks:
I like Brum , a little talking car that has all sorts of adventures. Younger and older students find it entertaining.
Animated Tales Of The World from HBO is an excellent series of folktales from throughout the world. I've used them to teach geography, history, and writing.
The Pink Panther series of movies have been great, specifically the parts where Peter Sellers fights his man-servant Cato. These hilarious slapstick scenes are wonderful times to teach vocabulary related to home. However, I offer recommendation with some hesitancy, since some could view it as perpetuating stereotypes and find it offensive. I'd be interested in hearing opinions on issue. Certainly, none of my students, who are mostly Asian, have felt that way. I've engaged students in kind of discussion everytime I've shown the movies.
Father Of The Bride with Steve Martin (and its sequel) provides some hilarious and teachable scenes about family, food, and home.
David Deubelbeiss, from EFL Classroom 2.0, and I agree that the movie Bigis a great one. In fact, David is going to upload a bunch of classroom activities related to the movie on his site. (Since I originally posted list, David has more ideas and resources here.)
The Bear provides a lot of opportunities to discuss serious topics. It doesn't have a whole lot of dialogue, so it's very accessible to Beginning English Language Learners.
Globe Trekker has a ton of excellent travel videos. I've used them in all of my English, Geography, and History classes, and they're very accessible.
I'm ranking two collections of TV shows as the Top Two videos for teaching and learning ESL/EFL.
Number two is America's Funniest Home Videos. It has so many editions — family, pets, sports, animals — that you can find something to teach just about anything. They're already divided into short clips. My only caveat, though, is that a few of them seem cruel and/or disgusting to me. So I screen them before I use a clip in class.
My absolute favorite show to use is Mr. Bean — The Whole Bean. Mr. Bean is very accessible to even Beginning English Language Learners, and he is involved in so many situations that you can find a clip that will support whatever unit you're teaching. And he's so funny! David Deubelbeiss at EFL Classroom 2.0 has collected the best Mr. Bean videos for English Language Learners.
Readers made a number of other suggestions. I didn't include some of them in my list just because I haven't seen the shows.
Sebastian recommends Seinfield and Joey, specifically the episode called Joey and the ESL. I definitely want to see that — how often is an ESL class shown in a TV situation comedy?
EFL Geek recommends several movies, including An Inconvenient Truth, Almost Famous, and Stand By Me. For TV, he likes Lost, Corner Gas, Prison Break and Smallville. I did a quick and informal poll of my students, and they agreed that Smallville helped them with their English a lot.
I regularly use Connect With English, a video series that's designed to help students learn English and be engaging. It seems to be one of the better ones of its type out there. Though the supporting materials are good, you do have to pay for them. I thought readers might be interested in one page worksheet that we use instead. Students have to make predictions based on the title of the episode, explain if their predictions were correct, write several questions about the episode that they ask a partner afterwards (who then writes the answers). It's good listening, speaking, and writing practice.
(I'm adding Movie Lens to The Best Popular Movies/TV Shows For ESL/EFL. It's a new recommendation/search engine for movies, and it's by far the most effective tool — for teachers, at least – I've found to search for movies.
The other typical sites that let you search for movies do it by genre (adventure, romance, etc.). Movie Lens is the first that I've found that, in addition to searching by genre, lets you search by what they call "tags." For example, I searched for "World War II" and got an extensive list of World War II-related movies — a list that I would not have found through Amazon, Netflix, or any other tool on The Best Places To Get Blog, Website, , Book, Movie, & Music Recommendations list.
is particularly helpful to me in the Social Science classes I teach to English Language Learners, where I often use short snippets of movies. )
Nanocrowd has been written-up by Read Write Web, and their post is probably worth a look. It's another way to find good movies for ESL/EFL. Basically, you start typing in the name of a movie that's similar to what you're looking for (as you type letters, movie titles will appear). Click "enter" and you will be led to a page filled with similar movies and descriptive "tags" for those movies, too. Click on the tags, and you'll see more of the same.
The Internet History Sourcebook Project is an extraordinary collection of history resources. I'm particularly impressed with their Modern History in the Movies, Ancient History in the Movies, and Medieval Movies. In those three collections, movies are categorized by era and described. It's a gold mine for any Social Studies teacher, and especially for those of us who teach English Language Learners. I use very short clips of movies, following by a writing/thinking prompt, all the time.
American History Film Resources also offers a good listing of film resources for different periods of American history.
Movieclips has immediately become an indispensable website in my "teachers' repertoire" of links.
It has thousands of short video clips from movies and they're not blocked by our content filter! And they're available without registering — except for clips that have "mature" content.
That in itself makes it a wonderful resource. But that's only part of why I like new site so much.
What makes it a real winner is that that clips are categorized by theme, character, setting, mood, and more. They're incredibly detailed.
kind of organization makes it a gold mine for English Language Learners and their teachers. A ready-made video to teach vocabulary or an academic concept is at your finger-tips. Plus, they're easily used for an activity like "Back To The Screen."
In addition, users can create questions about the clip that the site will host. That's a nice feature, and an opportunity for students to write for an authentic audience. The only tricky part is that in order to do so you have to register for the site, which is easy enough. However, that also gives you access to the mature content clips, so you'd only want to have students use it under supervision.
AnyClip has indexed and categorized scenes from twenty movies, and will soon be doing the same with 200 more month. It's categorization system is not nearly as sophisticated as Moveclips, but it could still be useful.
David Deubelbeiss at EFL Classroom 2.0 has given us all a gift by compiling his Top 100 Youtube videos for EFL. You might find The Best Ways To Access Educational YouTube Videos At School helpful to use with his list.
Using film and moving image to enrich ESOL teaching and learning is a very nice listing of different ways to use film with English Language Learners. It was written by Cormac Conway and Michaela Salmon.
Meltinpop is a new site dedicated to what they call "free association." Users identify "themes" related to anything they are interesting in — songs related to food, movie scenes with car chases, scenes from television shows about doctors, etc. Other users then respond with their suggestions. It's got quite a few "themes" already started. could be very handy for ESL/EFL teachers looking for multimedia to connect to the thematic unit or specific lesson they want to teach. You can only log-in through Facebook, so it probably wouldn't be workable for student use.
David Deubelbeiss some nice resources and ideas in his post, Using Silent Video in the EFL Classroom.
I've always asked students to watch English movies or television programs as part of their weekly homework, but David Deubelbeiss writes much more thoughtfully about the idea in post on what he calls Extensive Watching.
WingClips has organized a huge number of short clips from movies thematically — perseverance, responsibility — and then lets you show them from the site or embed them elsewhere. Important caveats to keep in mind before checking it out are that it clearly comes from a religious, and Christian, perspective, so a number of the themes — adultery, for example, you probably just want to skip. In addition, it appears to have an exceptionally large number of war-related movie clips ("Machine Gun Preacher"?), but that might be a false impression. As in any website, you just have to pick and choose what's useful.
Inspire My Kids has short video clips and descriptions of people that are designed to inspire students.
Learn English Through Movies is from clubEFL.

I learned about the Miniscule video series from the great site, The Kid Should See . Here is how they described it:
A French-made collection of short stories, Minuscule is about the private lives of ants, snails, bees, caterpillars, wasps, spiders and other tiny creatures, all told without any speaking at all.
In some ways, they're like an animated Mr. Bean short — perfect for ELL's. They're engaging, brief, and provide plenty of opportunities for students to describe what they saw in writing and orally. You can find a bunch of them on YouTube. Here are twe of them:
Of course, English Central may be the very best place on the Web for videos and ELL's.
In video, Dan Meyer demonstrates how the movie search engine Subzin could be very useful for teachers. I would strongly recommend you read his short, but elegant, post describing how he used it to create video. Subzin is a search engine for quotes in movies and series. For example, here's a page of results after I searched "asking questions" and I see some good candidates for The Best Videos Showing The Importance Of Asking Good Questions list. ESL/ELL teachers could find very handy when they're looking for clips to support thematic units like food, or specific grammar functions. Now, sit back and enjoy Dan's work (though, again, be sure to read his post about it, too):

Learning English through a TV series is a helpful blog post.
Video In The Classroom is by David Deubelbeiss.
I think the old silent movies of Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton are great for English Language Learners.
I remember when I first played a scene from a Chaplin film years ago, all the Hmong refugees in my class started yelling, "Charlie! Charlie!" His silent films were played a lot in refugee camps.
As with practically all videos, I never play a full one — just a scene, and typically one that ties into the thematic unit that we're studying at the time — home, work, etc., or if we're learning about history I can tie something into it. Since both Keaton and Chaplin made so many movies, there's usually a funny or action-packed scene that I can connect to anything I'm teaching.
Open Culture has a list of links to free online videos of both Chaplin and Keaton movies, though many are missing from their lists. You can just search YouTube, too.
I've embedded two Chaplin films that I use — one is Pay Day, which has scenes I use when we learn about work, and the other is Gold Rush, which I've used when we're learning about history. If you have some favorites that you use, let me know what that are!
Also, just an aside, I usually show one of Chaplin's movies to my non-ELL classes during the year, too, just so they know about him. I have never had a student in my mainstream classes say they knew who he was prior to watching a clip I show.
Using Video in the Classroom is from ELT Experiences.

If Amazon were to hit it out of the park with hardware, integration with their cloud media services, and price it well it would still be a 7" tablet. 7" is too small for a media consumption device other than an e-reader. The market for 7" tablets is non-existent. The market for non-Apple tablets is next to nothing, but 7" is beyond terrible.
I don't think Amazon will make the direct leap from eReader supplier to iPad challenger. They will stick to their roots on this next device and add some tablet functionality. I expect a better executed and better priced version of the Nook Color with their next offering. The 10" tablet is where they will make their big splash IMO.
I really like the 7" form factor. But then, I mostly want to use it as an e-reader and browser.
And here it is.
7" full-color screen, no eInk (10" coming in 2012)
Two-finger multitouch support
Runs a version of Android thats older than 2.2 but its been heavily customized
No camera

WEST CARTHAGE The village is inching toward a new riverfront park and boat launch.
Its been nearly a year since Jill Aikins of GYMO Architecture, Engineering and Land Surveying, Watertown, presented a conceptual design of improvements to the South Main Street boat launch and surrounding area to the village Board of Trustees.
During its April 22 meeting, the board reviewed an updated budget for the project prepared by GYMO. The budget is higher than the funding that has been awarded, but as part of grant agreements, the village has done some of the in-kind work and will continue to do so.
The proposed budget is $325,535, and the village has obtained $114,908 in funding from the state Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservations Recreational Trails Program. The village plans to apply for more funding through the state Consolidated Funding Application.
River Area Council of Governments circuit rider Kathleen M. Amyot suggested an ad hoc committee be formed to peruse the budget for line items that could be performed by village Department of Public Works employees or obtained through other means.
Mayor Scott M. Burto said that a formal Riverfront Committee will be formed at the next Board of Trustees meeting and that interested residents should notify the village office or attend the meeting, which is set for 6 p.m. May 13 at the village office, 61 High St.
Mr. Burto said the ad hoc committee will look into donation venues for items such as benches, grills and trees.
Memorial plaques would be a lasting legacy of the contribution to the improvement of the community, the mayor said.
DPW has cleared trees and moved dirt on the parcel to form a foundation for driveways and walkways. The village is identifying elements of the project that can be accomplished through shared-service efforts with the Jefferson County Highway Department or the town of Champion.
Following Tuesdays meeting of the committee, GYMO project manager Thomas S. Compo said he has received project approval from both the Army Corps of Engineers and the state Department of Environmental Conservation.
Mr. Compo said the next step will be to advertise for bids for the project.
Im excited to see construction begin, Mr. Burto said. I look forward to providing a beautiful facility for area residents to use.
The project, which is to include a boat launch, walkways, picnic areas and a gazebo, is part of the Destination Blueway: Waterfront Plan for the villages of Carthage and West Carthage.
