Student-athlete profile: Jimmy Alexis '13
Jimmy Alexis '13 and the rest of the men's indoor track and field team host an invitational at Hamilton College's Margaret Bundy Scott Field House on Saturday, Feb. 9. Jimmy has been a member of both the indoor and outdoor teams since his freshman year. On Feb. 2 at the SUNY Brockport Invitational, Jimmy nearly broke the school-record height in the pole vault, and qualified for the 2013 Eastern College Athletic Conference Division III Championships, which will be held in New York City on March 1 and 2. He earned a spot on the New York State Collegiate Track Conference all-conference team for finishing in the top three of the pole vault at the 2011 championship meet.
Q: Tell us a little bit about where you grew up.
A: I was born in Miami and grew up in Jacksonville, Florida. It's a completely different environment there. First of all, it is way too cold in Clinton. My first winter on The Hill was brutal. I remember dragging my suitcase through the snow on my way home for the summer. Thank God, it hasn't been so bad since.
Also, family is a big deal back home. I miss our big family outings and gatherings that weren't secluded to my immediate family. We hosted celebrations for any occasion including birthdays, holidays, school accomplishments and taco night Wednesdays. Heck, anything we could come up with!
The last special thing about Jacksonville is that it is the biggest city per square foot in America (not including Alaskan cities). However, because of its size, Jacksonville is home to a great diversity of people. My ease of access to different cultures, races, ideologies, socioeconomic classes, etc., was an enriching experience and ultimately made me a well-rounded person.
Q: Did you play any other sports before you came to Hamilton?
A: For the past 15 years I have participated in a number of team sports. I have learned that sports are the best outlet for me to release my stress.
In elementary school I played basketball, soccer, baseball and tennis. In middle school I played football, basketball, soccer (for a season) and competed in track and field. In high school I ran cross country, played basketball for AAU, wrestled on the side for a local high school, was on the diving team (for a season) and ran track and field.
I plan to continue playing sports once I graduate, but not competitively this time around. However, I think cycling and golf are in my future.
Q: How did you get interested in track & field?
A: I was very big into basketball from a young age, and I used track as a ploy to stay in shape. Over time I became much better in track than basketball, so I did what was natural and switched my focus.
Q. Why the pole vault? It seems like it would be the most difficult event to master in track and field.
A. It was all about points. During my sophomore year of high school, the team needed points to defend our city, district and state titles. We had recently lost our best pole vaulter, so I knew where I had to step in. In the beginning, it was weird to run 800-meter repeats on the track, then go over to flip and jump around for an hour. However, as I progressed and learned the fundamentals of the sport, it became natural.
And yes, I was petrified! I still have my moments of fear, especially on an off day or when I am moving to heavier sticks.
Q: What attracted you to Hamilton College and the track & field program?
A: Jerry Dirvin '59 -- a friend of the family -- recommended Hamilton while I was in high school and suggested we take a trip to visit. After doing my own research, I fell in love with the liberal arts education and took him up on his offer. During my first morning here, I ran around campus to get a feel for the place (but mostly because my coach forced me to). Anyway, I loved the campus right off the bat, and I made a decision to "take my talents" from Florida to The Hill.
Before I arrived at Hamilton, I had no real intention to run for the track and field team. I thought high school marked the end of my sports era. But Mark Breazzano, a team captain during my freshman year, convinced me to give it a try and the rest is history.
Q: What has been your favorite Hamilton athletics highlight from all of your seasons?
A: My favorite Hamilton athletics moment was achieved at our last home meet on January 26. Our younger guys really stepped up and represented Hamilton well. Just two meets into the season we have a number of state qualifiers and there was even a team record broken. The younger guys have brought a lot of energy and work hard every day.
Q: Your performance at Brockport qualified you for the Eastern College Athletic Conference Division III championships in March. How do you feel going into your training the next few weeks for the event?
A: The past couple years have been rocky because of injuries. Every season I compete hard, but I am usually broken in some way. This year I am much healthier and ready to jump high. The secret is I had a great preseason and took all the proper precautions to stay healthy. As a result I am very in touch with my vault and I am only working on the finer details of my technique as I progress on to bigger poles. I am very optimistic for the future, and I hope to represent my team well in the ECAC championships.
Q: Do you have any advice about how to excel both in athletics and in the classroom?
A: My first piece of advice is to put school first. We work hard in the gym, but what really matters is our performance in the classroom. Our workouts are tough, but our course load is much harder, so don't compromise. At the same time, you are going to get out of track and field exactly what you put in. Focus on having a great off-season and preseason, get into the weight room and set goals. It goes a long way, I promise.
Q: What will Wlajimir Alexis be doing five years from now?
A: It's funny how much harder this question is to answer as you get older. Well, I have had a few great experiences with a number of smart and talented people in the finance industry. My work at Priority Capital Management -- a hedge fund -- and CreditSights -- a fixed-income research provider, has taught me a lot about my strengths and weaknesses and narrowed my focus down quite a bit.
However, I am still unsure of what the future holds for me in five years. I do know that in the much-more-distant future, I would like to either work in corporate finance or start my own business venture. I have a couple good ideas brewing, so stay tuned for that.

Britons top online shopping survey
Britons spend more than £1,000 a year each shopping online - more than any other country.
New research reveals that the amount of money spent on internet shopping shot up by 14% to £1,083 last year, compared with £950 in 2010.
Australians rank second at £842 per head, with Sweden third at £747, according to communications regulator Ofcom. Its report found that the average UK viewer watches just over four hours (242 minutes) of TV every day, with only the US (293 minutes) and Italy (253 minutes) watching more.
The study also showed that 62% of 18 to 24-year-olds and 40% of UK adults use their mobile phones to visit social networking sites, more than any other country.
UK consumers are also more likely to access TV shows over the internet - 23% of UK internet users do so every week compared with 17% in the US.
The UK also has one of the highest proportions of homes (41%) with high-definition TV, while 15% of UK consumers say they own a smart TV, enabling access to online services, according to Ofcom's International Communications Market Report.
For the first time, UK consumers are downloading more data on their mobiles and tablets than any other major nation. The UK has one of the highest penetrations of smartphones, at 58%, while 19% have a tablet computer. Only 37% use a desktop computer as their most frequent means of accessing the internet.
Half (51%) use a laptop most often to connect to the internet, while 6% prefer smartphones and 6% other connected devices. One sixth (16%) of all website traffic in the UK was on a mobile, tablet or other connected device, higher than any other country in Europe.
Ofcom's director of research James Thickett said: "We have always been a nation of TV lovers, and our research shows that UK consumers are world leaders in using the latest TV technology. By catching up on programmes online or using smart TVs, the UK public is finding new ways to enhance their viewing experience.
"Our research reveals that the UK leads the way in using the internet on the move. Increasingly, it's mobile devices like smartphones and tablets that are driving this growing demand for data - and in the UK it seems to be social networking sites that are behind this in particular. We have a long history of catalogue shopping in the UK, and as many daily activities are increasingly carried out online, the internet has become the new destination for many shoppers."

Federal health authorities are investigating reports of 13 deaths possibly linked to so-called energy shots, all while cautioning consumers to talk to their doctors before consuming similar drinks.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has received 92 reports over four years that cite illnesses, hospitalizations and deaths after drinking a product marketed as 5-Hour Energy. The FDA has also received reports citing the highly caffeinated Monster Energy Drink in five deaths and one nonfatal heart attack.
Agency officials stated the reports do not necessarily prove that the drinks cause deaths or injuries. However, they are investigating each one. In a statement, FDA officials said they will take action if the deaths can be linked to the consumption of energy drinks. Such action could result in forcing companies to take the drinks off the market. The drinks are currently found at convenience stores.
FDA spokeswoman Shelly Burgess said the agency is cautioning consumers that these energy shots or drinks are not alternatives to rest.
"If someone is thinking about taking one of these products, they should consult with their health care provider to ensure that there are no underlying or undiagnosed medical conditions that could worsen as a result of using them," said Burgess.
The agency does not individually regulate caffeinated drinks or supplements, but it can take action if they are proven to do harm. Makers of caffeinated alcoholic drinks took those products off the market in 2010 after the FDA sent the companies warning letters saying that combinations of caffeine and alcohol were a public health concern, leading to alcohol poisoning, car accidents and assaults.
The 5-Hour Energy's small size can also be dangerous to consumers because it's easier to take several of them or mix them with alcohol. The 5-Hour Energy shot is marketed as a dietary supplement. FDA regulations require supplement manufacturers to be responsible for products' safety.
A spokeswoman for Michigan-based Living Essentials, LLC, manufacturer for 5-Hour Energy, states it is a "compact-sized energy shot intended for busy adults — it is not an energy drink, nor marketed as a beverage."
Elaine Lutz said the company is not aware of any deaths proven to have been caused by their product. She said the company's website advises consumers to drink more than two bottles per day, spaced several hours apart, and for new consumers to drink half a bottle to start
Democratic Senators Richard Durbin of Illinois and Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut went to the Senate floor Thursday to complain about the lack of FDA oversight of energy drinks.
"For God's sake, these are on sale to kids throughout America," said Durbin.
The New York Times first reported that 13 deaths were linked to 5-Hour Energy.
Based on reporting by the Associated Press.

John Dodson
As improbable as it sounds, John Dodson's MMA career was born at Chuck E. Cheese in Albuquerque, N.M.
That's where Dodson was working in 2002 when he was persuaded by MMA coach Chris Luttrell to transform his exceptional wrestling skills into a possible fighting career.
As Dodson says, "The rest of the story is what you see now."
Dodson is one of the quickest, most explosive fighters in the UFC's flyweight division. He's the No. 1 contender to champion Demetrious Johnson, who is the only fighter to beat him in the UFC.
Dodson, who has also fought in the featherweight and bantamweight classes, holds a victory over current UFC bantamweight champion TJ Dillashaw. His first-round TKO over Dillashaw in December 2011 earned Dodson the Ultimate Fighter 14 bantamweight title.
Dodson climbed quickly through the flyweight ranks, defeating Timothy Elliott and Jussier Formiga in 2012 to earn a shot at Johnson, who was defending his belt for the first time. In January 2013 at UFC on FOX, Dodson knocked down Johnson twice in the early rounds before "Mighty Mouse" took control and won a unanimous five-round decision.
Dodson (20-9) bounced back with consecutive wins over Darrell Montague, John Moraga and Zach Makovsky to solidify his spot as the top contender to Johnson's crown. His 20 victories include 10 knockouts and two submissions.
Dodson was a two-time state wrestling champion at Moriarty High School in New Mexico. He also competed in football and track.
One thing Dodson doesn't lack is confidence. He has talked about holding UFC belts in three weight classes – flyweight, bantamweight and featherweight – at the same time and considers himself the best pound-for-pound fighter in the UFC.
"I'm the greatest fighter in the UFC," he told UFC.com. "I should be the No. 1 guy in the world pound for pound, and that's how I look at it in my own eyes."
TRAINING: Wake up, poop, eat, train, poop, eat, train, sleep, train, eat, poop, train some more and sleep for the night
When and why did you start training for fighting? I started training in '02. I was working at Chuck E. Cheese at the time and just so happened that I was the birthday host for Chris Luttrell's son's birthday. Some of the guys that were there knew me from wrestling and asked where I was planning to go after high school and wrestle. I told them nowhere and then that's when they invited me to Jackson's. The rest of the story is what you see now.
What ranks and titles have you held? TUF 14 winner, black belt in Gaidojutsu
Do you have any heroes? My hero is my mother. She raised my brother and I to be the men that we are today. Strong, independent, and will never give up on our dreams.
What does it mean for you to fight in the UFC? It's means a lot to me to fight in the UFC. I could be the best at flyweight in the world, but no one will know my name. I'm trying to have my name written in the stars and not washed away in the sands. Being in the UFC will help me with that.
Did you go to college and if so what degree did you earn? I went to the University of New Mexico and studied Criminology. I haven't got my degree yet.
What was your job before you started fighting? I was a Server at Pappadeaux Seafood Kitchen and instructor at Jackson-Winkeljohn MMA gym.
Specific accomplishments in amateur competition? Won tons of Grappler Quests back in the day, was a state champion wrestler in high school, went undefeated as amateur in MMA
Favorite grappling technique: Chokes - it doesn't matter what kind, I like them all.
Favorite striking technique: Jumping head kick

Responsive design is one of the hottest trends in web design at the moment as it's seen as the most effective way of creating a consistent user experience across all devices.
For blogs that rely on social to promote their content it's very important to have some sort of mobile optimised site as it's inevitable that a large proportion of social referrals will come through mobile devices.
For small businesses or amateur bloggers a responsive WordPress theme is an excellent option as it allows the site owner to offer users a mobile experience without spending loads of money.
There are many responsive templates available either for free or for a very limited outlay, so I thought it would be useful to round up a few of the more impressive options.
To clarify, I haven't tried out all of these themes but I've opted for examples that offer a decent user experience and have scored high reviews from site owners.
For more information on this topic check out our post on how to write irresistible headlines and also my article on what I learned from writing more than 1,000 blog posts for Econsultancy…
DW Minion
This free theme offers a very clean, simple layout and supports several different blog post formats.
It also supports a range of social features allowing you to emphasise social sharing.
Blogify offers a clean, flat design that has advanced options to allow users to fully customise their site.
It supports all the usual social widgets and looks terrific, which is why it will set you back $35.
Koresponsive is a free theme that comes with a range of customisable options. It has scored nine out of 10 from more than 85 reviews.
The headlines on the demo site are a bit too small for my liking, but that's probably something that can be altered in the management panel.
Hiero is another simple theme that is perfect for a magazine or portfolio. Users can download it for free after they've shared the site via social.
Opting for a Pinterest-style layout, WallPress has an emphasis on imagery that means users can potentially create a really good-looking site.
It is available free of charge and also has a social feed that brings all social content together in one place.
This magazine theme costs $45 to download, but it looks very professional and has some additional features that aren't available on the free themes.
Pandora comes with unlimited colour schemes, sidebars, contact forms and many other features, and also allows users to write review-style posts that support rich formats in search results.
Jade is a pricey option as it costs $45 plus you need to purchase the Genesis framework in order for things to work properly, which will set you back an extra $59.95.
However the site looks great, particularly on mobile, and has loads of customisable features so could be worth the investment.
This free theme is the perfect option for bloggers who want a stripped-down, simple layout.
It offers very little functionality, so is really only for people who want a hassle-free blogging platform.
Nordic is aimed at artists but its simple layout could also be used for other portfolio or blogging sites. It costs $40 and of course comes with a range of customisable options.
Another incredibly simple theme that would suit single author blogs. Tiny comes with 11 different themes and is available for free in return for a tweeting a link to the site.
Our Festival of Marketing event in November is a two day celebration of the modern marketing industry, featuring speakers from brands including LEGO, Tesco, Barclays, FT.com and more.

very usefull themplate. I guess ther Hierro is the best template. Do they offer a free version? maybe with limited features? it will be usefull
Love the Wallpress template David. Somehow I am not a fan of so many columns, but the 6 columns in this template just seem fine and it looks great!
Yes David, it's really a good idea to promote their content and sites as well. ...It's a really great way to get exposure beyond our regular circles. .... If we use templates suggested by you. Yes it would be useful to round up a few of the more impressive options.
Great sum up Dave!
Without a doubt, WordPress is one of the most popular web-based software used by many big and small companies and bloggers. There are many free responsive themes that small business can use to its full potential.
I'm a big fan of simple layout which work particularly well for image based blogs/sites.
Thanks for the list, will definitely try some of these.
Thanks for the list the "Tiny" theme is exactly what I needed!
Amazing collections. Today very trendy are themes with flat design. I like that style, it make every site and business look nice, clean and modern.
Great list of awsome looking themes! Just had a conversation with a potential client the other day, and now I can show him what's available. As this client is an artist, the Nordic looks just perfect!
These themes are perfect for small companies.
i was just looking for those....
i am setting up my new blog, and i have surely select one theme from this page.
this is good to be at this post. thank a lot.
great wordpress themes collection and for reference for my next project, thanks so much for this wonderful post!

THE WOODLANDS, Texas – Tom Lehman used to hate the Tournament Course at The Woodlands Country Club. Now, he's wondering why he ever felt that way.
The 53-year-old Lehman had an eagle and five birdies on the first eight holes on the back nine Friday, then bogeyed the par-4 18th for a 7-under 65 and a one-shot lead after the first round of the Champions Tour's Insperity Championship.
Fred Funk and Houston native Tom Jenkins were tied for second, and past winners John Cook and Bernhard Langer topped a large group at 68.
Michael Allen, coming off consecutive victories at TPC Tampa Bay and the Legends of Golf better-ball event with David Frost, opened with a 69.
Lehman, the player of the year last year after winning three times, shot his ninth straight sub-par round at the Woodlands, a venue that used to conjure nothing but bad memories.
He played in the 1985 Houston Open, the first year it was contested here, and missed the cut. In December 1989, Lehman finished ''nearly dead-last'' here in PGA Tour qualifying school on a cold, rainy weekend.
''It was a horrendous experience,'' he said. ''I played poorly and because it was such a big deal, I hated the golf course and I thought I'd never come back.''
But Lehman has top-10 finishes in each of his three Champions Tour starts at the course since 2009, and he was reminded again Friday how well the course actually suits his game.
He hit approach shots close all day, and sank 6-foot birdie putts on Nos. 10 and 11 to get going. He holed a 12-footer on the 13th hole, reached the par-5 15th in two shots to set up the eagle and then tacked on two short birdie putts on Nos. 16 and 17.
''I think to myself, 'Why did I not come back here? I love this course,''' Lehman said. ''It's just a testimony to how you can get something in your head, when things aren't going well. It's easy to say, 'I don't like the golf course.'''
Funk, meanwhile, is back at a venue he's always loved.
He played in that same 1989 qualifying tournament here, but played well and earned his card. Funk then earned his first Tour victory here at 1992 Houston Open, also the year he shot a course-record 62. And he met his second wife, Sharon, at a post-tournament party that year.
''A lot of good things here,'' Funk said, ''plus I love the golf course. It's a good spot.''
The 55-year-old Funk is coming off a tie for 30th at the Zurich Classic on the PGA Tour, where he finished with a 68. He has played in four Tour events this year and hopes to qualify for next month's U.S. Open.
''I still enjoy playing with the young guys,'' Funk said. ''I love those guys. It's just great to see them, and to try to stay in touch with what they're doing.''
The 64-year-old Jenkins played on the University of Houston's 1970 national championship squad. He's staying at his childhood home this week with his 92-year-old mother, Martha, and sleeping in his old bedroom.
''It's like going back in time,'' he said. ''You look up and you've got all the trophies in the cubby holes up there from when you were 15. It's kind of a special time. It's always great to be back and kind of kindle some of those memories.''
Winless since 2006, Jenkins felt totally relaxed as he began his round. He was 4-under par at the turn, then reached the par-5 first hole in two for another birdie. He added another birdie on the par-5 sixth to match his best round at The Woodlands.
Jenkins never felt comfortable in previous professional starts in Houston. His best finish in 15 appearances in the regular tour's Houston Open was a tie for 30th in 1983.
''Usually, in my past, it's always been more difficult to play at home, because all the distractions, you're having to get tickets for everybody,'' Jenkins said. ''Everybody wants to invite you to dinner. There's a lot of stuff. It doesn't happen now, it's just a little bit different now.''
Jenkins has won seven Champions Tour events, but none since October 2006. He had five top-25 finishes last year, including a tie for 16th at this event, when it was held in October.
He's quietly confident about his chances here this weekend.
''I still feel like I can play,'' he said. ''If I get in the hunt, I still feel like I can do it.''

The City of Shelton's goal is to preserve at least 15% of the land as permanently protected, locally controlled open space in the following three forms: City of Shelton Public Open Space properties, Privately owned farmland protected by the purchase of development rights, and properties held by the non-profit Shelton Land Conservation Trust.

There are two private golf courses in town. Highland Golf Club of Shelton is located in the downtown Shelton area where it was founded in 1900, only six years after the USGA was organized . It is a 9-hole course (with 10 greens to allow alternating #2 and #11 where the tee shot goes over Perry Hill Road) in which an unknown original designer created difficult greens. The clubhouse's 1920s era structure still remains as the core to the current structure. Brownson Country Club is an 18-hole venue located in the Huntington section of Shelton. There is an annual competition between the clubs for the "Mayor's Trophy", alternating the venue each year. The 2009 Champion and holder of the Trophy is Highland.

observers sometimes decry the lack of young, burgeoning talent at the quarterback position. But 2012 was a watershed year for quarterbacks in the draft, with Andrew Luck , Robert Griffin III , Ryan Tannehill and Russell Wilson among those dubbed the future of the league.
Both Luck and Tannehill missed the entire 2017 season due to injury, Griffin's career is over and Wilson is left to carry a dysfunctional offense on his back.
The question has gone: Where are the great quarterbacks of tomorrow? The top two players in the 2016 draft, Rams quarterback Jared Goff and Eagles QB Carson Wentz, underwent massive improvements in their second seasons. Bears rookie quarterback Mitchell Trubisky has looked better in recent weeks, despite an unfriendly offense, and former Patriots backup Jimmy Garoppolo spent the last month looking like the best signal-caller in the league.

Shooting may drive lawmakers' agenda in Hartford
State legislators say they are ready to address gun violence, mental health services and school safety in the wake of the massacre in Newtown.
"Look at these high-powered rifles, the Bushmaster, a modified version of the M16. There is no reason to own one unless you are fighting somewhere in Afghanistan," said state Rep. Ernest Hewett, D-New London. "It doesn't take a high-powered Bushmaster to go duck hunting."
Incoming Speaker of the House Brendan Sharkey said once he selects committee chairs he will put together a group to create a package of legislation to tackle gun safety, mental health services and school safety.
Connecticut has a strong chain of title for gun ownership, suitability requirements, background checks, a gun seizure law and an assault weapons ban, said Attorney General George Jepsen. Connecticut is the only state in the U.S. to have a gun seizure law, which allows a person to report suspicious behavior such as a neighbor waving around guns and shouting profanities in the front yard, he said.
The assault weapons ban was particularly hard to pass. The bill went through at least four committees and was approved by a single vote in both the House and Senate in 1993, Jepsen said. But a statewide ban isn't enough, he said. Without a federal assault weapons ban people can go to other states and buy them and bring them here.
In 2011 the judiciary committee considered a bill to ban high-capacity magazines with 10 or more rounds. Hewett, along with state Rep. Elizabeth Ritter, D-Waterford, supported it, but roughly 500 "gun-carrying people" lobbied before the committee and the bill died, Hewett said.
Hewett, Ritter and Rep. Diana Urban, D-North Stonington, are among those who say they would support a similar bill in the upcoming session. Rep. Edward Moukawsher, D-Groton, said he is leaning toward supporting such a bill.
"I don't see the necessity of high-capacity magazines," Moukawsher said. "They are so lethal in these situations that I am inclined to support some kind of restriction on it."
State Reps. Elissa Wright, D-Groton, and Ed Jutila, D-East Lyme, said they needed more information and time before drawing a conclusion. Wright served on the judiciary committee when the ban on high-capacity magazines was discussed.
"Whether that bill would have made a difference or not it's hard to know," Wright said. At the time there was heavy resistance from some of the advocacy groups, she said.
She said she expected a thorough examination of the issues in the upcoming session. "It's too early to be specific right now," Wright said.
Jutila said legislators shouldn't jump to any conclusions on how to keep lethal weapons out of the hands of people who might harm others, secure schools or get the mentally ill treatment until there is a serious conversation among many people. Gun-control advocates, gun owners, experts, parents, teachers and the general public should have a voice, Jutila said.
Many legislators expressed the desire to return funding to state-run mental health services as opposed to the current focus on community services such as group homes or nonprofits.
"We have kind of gone away from having some kind of designated institution and services to a very diffused delivery system through group homes, and I think it has left people at a loss who have children, who are struggling with problems like this young man had," Moukawsher said.
Urban, a member of the select committee on children, said she plans to help adolescents dealing with mental illness and substance abuse get better insurance coverage or access to support.
"I have had emails from constituents and people around the state who have indicated instances where there is a desperate need for a child to get mental health help and they are unable to get it until that child either harms himself of harms someone else," Urban said. "We need to close that gap."
Urban also said she wants to bring back the simulated gun issue. She wants to keep fake guns or gun replicas 250 feet away from schools. Children need to learn that guns are not toys, she said. Fake guns are also dangerous because police officers cannot tell when a child is using a replica gun or a real gun, she said.
Sharkey, the incoming speaker of the House, said comprehensive solutions arise from diverse viewpoints.
The National Rifle Association typically does a good job of getting its members out and message heard, he said.
"The tragic events that we have been going though has sensitized the public to the importance of this issue in ways that it wasn't before," Sharkey said. "I hope in a public process they will also have their voices heard."

Looking fore-word to spring
A new clubhouse and an open-air, timber-frame pavilion are going up at the Harvest Hill golf course in Orchard Park.
Deerwood Golf Course in North Tonawanda has added a website for booking tee times and a blog with posts about things like new golf apps to attract the younger generation.
The Country Club of Buffalo is restoring its course to its original design from 1926.
And it's finally feeling warm enough – for golf.
If the promise of a great season on the links isn't enough, golfers will see some big changes at their favorite courses, from new equipment, paint and buildings, to new apps, to new traps.
There's a new owner at Harvest Hill in Orchard Park, where personal injury attorney Ross M. Cellino spent the winter overseeing construction of a clubhouse.
Marked by a signature faux silo, the structure captures the ambiance of the country fields and ties the course on Old Transit Road with its rural past, as well as nearby barns.
Cellino bought the course last fall from the Harvest Hill Foundation, formerly known as the West Seneca Rotary Foundation, and quickly got down to planning the details.
It's still the same 18 holes spread over 7,010 yards designed by golf course architect Michael Hurdzan, but Cellino took as his mission the preservation of the daily-fee course as an affordable public course, while enhancing the experience for golfers.
"On my watch, I want it to remain a public course for the citizens of Orchard Park and West Seneca," Cellino said shortly after he bought the course and equipment for $1.5 million. He spent another $1.1 million on construction of the new facilities.
On a recent tour, Cellino eagerly pointed out where a pro shop and sports bar and grill will emerge from wooden studs in the clubhouse. On the exterior, cedar wood will be painted translucent gold, with burgundy and green trim.
"It's quite impressive, because coming into this, he didn't have any golf experience," said Harvest Hill golf pro Scott Arnold.
The goal was to open the clubhouse in April, but golfers will have to wait until Memorial Day weekend for the full experience. Until then, they can watch the work-in-progress on the way to the first tee.
Construction on the 3,700 square-foot clubhouse started last year. Two golf cart buildings will house new carts – each with its own cooler, so golfers can buy a drink in the clubhouse and take it with them on the course. An open-air, timber-frame pavilion that can accommodate 150 to 200 people for tournaments also will be completed by Memorial Day.
Cellino pays homage with a granite marker at the first hole to H. Joseph Sgroi and Carl Lambein of West Seneca, who got the course off the ground. Lambein and his wife, Marion, donated 125 acres for the course, and the Harvest Hill Foundation, under the direction of Sgroi, a financial planner, secured 140 more acres and built the course.
And if you're standing on the 18th tee and don't know quite where to shoot, just aim for the silo.
"Coming from nothing to this, what a difference a year makes," Arnold said. "It's been quite fun."
Back to the beginnings
The Country Club of Buffalo sees its future in its past, and has taken the course back to its beginnings, as it was designed by the famed Donald Ross in 1926. From the tees to the bunkers and the fairways, the architect's original vision was revealed, and there was extensive interior remodeling as well.
"The original design is a classic," said Robert Stevenson, president of the club.
The course changed over the years as updates were made and trees were planted and grew, he said.
"They start to choke the course," Stevenson said.
About the same time Ross was designing this course, he also designed the course at Oak Hill Country Club in Rochester, where the PGA Championship will be held this year. Club members expect that once the renovations are completed at the Amherst club, it will return to being one of the top 100 courses in the country.
Locker room renovations at the club will be unveiled at a grand reopening for members April 18, and the course, which was renovated one hole at a time, should be completed in May.
Making bunkers better
Craig Burn Golf Club in Aurora spent the fall planting sod in its bunkers, then killing it off and placing new sand on top of it.
"That acts like a natural mat and natural drainage," said Jim Prior in the pro shop. "Our soil around here is clay and shale, it's not very conducive to bunkers."
Over the years the sand in the traps wears away, and the shale underneath rises to the top, he said. The bunkers were replaced about 15 years ago, but the hope is the new sod will add an extra layer and staying power to the sand traps.
How do the golfers like it?
"They're just happy to be out. They don't care if there's anything in the bunkers," Prior said.
Going digital
And at Deerwood Golf Course, Director Keith Miranto has high hopes that new digital features – a website for booking tee times and a blog with posts about things like a new golf phone app – will help attract the younger generation.
The 27-hole golf course on Sweeney Street in North Tonawanda is under used, said Miranto, 55. He figures it is being played at 70 to 80 percent capacity by people his age and older.
The National Golf Foundation persuaded the course to add a free golf phone app for golfers to see the course layout, order food from the course-side Hideaway Restaurant and talk smack with their friends.
Miranto offered a sample message that could be sent with the app from a golfer playing ahead of the others: "I just birdied this hole up here. How come you guys are taking so long?"
"You have to have young people interested in your golf course if you want to maintain your membership," he said.

is this drinking fountain freezeless or frost free - not sure of the term? if not, can it be retro-fitted?
Question Asked By: amy holguin , bent creek community park , May 29, 2012
+ View 1 Answer
Adding to an earlier question - When looking at the description of one of your frost resistant fountains it says 'Freeze resistant drinking fountains feature a resistant valve system designed for ground installation 18¿ below the frost line. Includes 60¿ of access tubing'. I believe we have the proper underground installation but the fountain that was ordered from you is not a frost free design. Do you know if there is a way to retro-fit the fountain to make it frost resistant? Thanks, Amy

In the latest instalment of our blog series looking at how brands make use of the four major social networks, I've decided to take a closer look at McDonald's.
McDonald's is one of the most recognisable brands in the world, yet also has to battle a fair amount of negative publicity, so one would assume that its social accounts would be extremely active.
This blog follows on from similar posts looking at the social strategies of ASOS, Walmart, Starbucks and Red Bull, among others.
And without further ado, here is a quick look at how McDonald's uses Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and Google+...
For a company that has had its fair share of bad press over the years, McDonald's remains one of the biggest brands in the world and this is reflected in its social media communities.
The McDonald's US page has more than 27m fans, and its local market pages have all attracted several hundred thousand 'likes'.
But despite its obvious success in attracting fans, McDonald's actually does relatively little in regards to posting content on its wall.
Accepted wisdom suggests that you need to post frequent updates in order to maintain people's attention on Facebook, and retailers such as ASOS and Walmart are great exponents of this theory.
However both McDonald's and Starbucks have taken a far more hands off approach, yet are two of the most 'liked' brands on the social network.
McDonald's generally posts fewer than five updates a month yet each one attracts several thousands 'likes' and comments, which is more than the brands that posts several times per day.
Several commenters on my Starbucks blog post suggested the engagement levels that these massive global brands enjoy on social media is just a natural by-product of their corporate success, and that theory certainly appears to hold water.
McDonald's makes no apparent effort to respond to the thousands of user comments it receives, and most of its posts are merely product promotions.
Interestingly, the local market pages are far more active and post several updates per week.
The UK page has almost 500,000 fans and posts a steady stream of eye-catching content, though nearly all of it is product focused.
While many businesses use social to give a more rounded image of the brand by posting lifestyle content, McDonald's just promotes its product range and upcoming changes to the menu.
Even so, it maintains an impressive level of engagement, with each post attracting several thousand 'likes' and comments.
Furthermore, McDonald's UK hasn't made any effort to reward its Facebook fans in any way. Many brands run Facebook competitions, with Ikea's warehouse sleepover being a notable example.
But McDonald's clearly doesn't see any value in that, and sticks to its sales messages instead.
Unlike its Facebook page, McDonald's USA invests a lot of time and effort in maintaining an active Twitter feed.
It posts several updates each day to entertain its 995,000 followers, however it tends to avoid tweeting anything too quirky or off-message and instead remains resolutely focused on promoting it products.
This could be because this Twitter feed was the subject of a fairly major social fail in 2012. McDonald's used the hashtag #McDStories to promote video content of their suppliers talking about McDonald's ingredients.
Unfortunately for Ronald the campaign was hijacked by consumers complaining about the company's service and the quality of the food.
That said, the social team do respond to a handful of users each day but only ever ones that have posted positive comments.
The fast food chain also has an official corporate account, which has far fewer followers but responds to a far greater number of @mentions.
This Twitter feeds injects more personality into its tweets, and like the US account it links to short biographies of each member of the social team.
Through this account the brand engages in conversations with other users and brands alike, and also occasionally responds to complaints.
On top of this, McDonald's also has a dedicated customer service feed that responds to customer complaints.
However it currently only responds to about 20 customers per day, and based on the number of McDonald's restaurants in the US I would have thought that this means a large amount of complaints are going unanswered on Twitter.
As with its Facebook strategy, McDonald's also has Twitter local Twitter feeds for various global markets and US states.
But despite the fact that even El Salvador has its own feed, the UK apparently doesn't see any value in using Twitter.
While McDonald's maintains separate acounts for its local markets on Facebook and Twitter, on Pinterest it only has one main corporate account.
A majority of the content is pinned from the company's Flickr account, while the rest mainly comes from other McDonald's websites.
This is a common tactic among brands, presumably because they want to make sure they aren't driving traffic to other sites and avoid any copyright claims.
The one board that bucks this trend is '#FoodThanks' which was created to "collectively show appreciation for wholesome food and those who provide it."
McDonald's has invited other users to pin their own food-related images to the board, which is a good way of building a community on the network as it means people feel involved with the brand.
Overall though, McDonald's isn't particularly active on Pinterest compared to other major brands such as Red Bull and Walmart.
It joined the network more than a year ago and since then has only pinned 393 images on its 15 boards. The account only has around 2,000 followers, which is low for a such a huge, global brand.
One other interesting point to note is that McDonald's is unable to run any Pinterest competitions due to the differing regulations in the 119 countries in which it operates.
This deprives its social team of a useful tool, as many other brands have managed to increase engagement and boost their follower numbers by running competitions on Pinterest.
While putting together these social media posts one common theme that has emerged is that very few brands bother to put a lot of effort into their Google+ pages.
ASOS and John Lewis are notable exceptions as they post updates on a daily basis, but Ikea and Walmart are more typical examples in that they have established G+ pages, posted a few updates, then lost interest and left the accounts dormant.
McDonald's actually goes one step further, and has established a G+ account then done absolutely nothing with it. There isn't a single post in its feed.
There are also accounts for other local markets, including Brazil and Japan, but neither has been updated since last summer.
The one exception is McDonald's Germany, which last posted on March 6, however the updates only come at the rate of about two a month.

When you're this big and have this much TV advertising, then you can afford to be this transactional online :)
Hi Graham,
It's interesting that lots of brands including McDonalds don't bother with Google +, they mostly do a very thorough job on Facebook, is Google + redundant or doesn't have as many users as Facebook? Whenever some new social media comes out, companies tend to jump into it hoping not to miss a chance but often without thinking what to do with it.
I'm not sure how long the list of social media may grow in the future, but even for big companies it's still a lot of effort to manage growing number of social channels (unless they work with social PR agency). I'm wondering if there are any particular patterns/combinations of using them by different business sectors? For example, retailers tend to use a full array of them for product release, customer engagement, promoting brands and creating buzz, while business services may choose only a handful, more business related ones to highlight the benefits of their services, make announcements and provide important information to customers...
I'm really enjoying reading these case studies on how big companies use their social media profiles (always looking to nick ideas as well!) - but it's very disheartening when companies like Starbucks and McDonalds seem have massive likes and follower numbers with relatively low-maintenance social media presence. I've put this down to their presence on the high street; their brand is already built through advertising and having actual physical shops, whereas a brand such as ASOS, which only operates online, is going to need a lot more investment in appealing to customers digitally - does that seem reasonable?
I think one of the best companies to work for in digital marketing team has got to be Cadbury's, their Google+ page is phenomenal! Can you do a case study on that one please?! - or I'll do it! (not a threat, but an offer!)
@Kate, thanks for your comment. I think your point about ASOS is definitely valid - as a pureplay online brand it has different marketing objectives to high street retailers, and its social strategy certainly reflects that.
Cadbury are certainly an interesting brand when it comes to social, and we previously spoke to Jerry Daykin (Cadbury social manager) about best practice on Google+... http://econsultancy.com/uk/blog/9250-cadbury-s-top-five-best-practice-tips-for-google
So, thanks for the suggestion. I'll certainly try to tick Cadbury off the list in the next few weeks!
I love social media and always enjoy taking a look at how big companies like McDonald's use it!

Patients in psychiatric hospitals who take part in smoking cessation programs during their stay are more likely to be smoke-free after 18 months, compared to patients who don't participate in the programs, says a new study.
What's more, researchers found that quitting smoking appeared to be safe for the patients and was tied to a decreased risk of being admitted back into the hospital.
"That's a new finding and it needs to be replicated, but we're excited that it didn't cause any harm and may have supported their recovery," said Judith Prochaska, the study's lead author from the Stanford Prevention Research Center in California.
Prochaska and her colleagues write in the American Journal of Public Health that it's estimated people with mental illnesses use two to four times more tobacco than the general population.
The lives of people with serious mental illnesses are about 25 years shorter than the rest of the population, on average, and the main causes of early death are tobacco-related diseases.
Most U.S. hospitals have been smoke-free since 1993, but at least half of hospital psychiatric units allow smoking and sell cigarettes, according to the researchers.
"It used to be that people with mental illnesses had a waiver," Dr. Steven Schroeder, the Distinguished Professor of Health and Health Care at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), said.
Schroeder, who was not involved with the new research, said some people believed psychiatric inpatients were not ready or didn't want to quit smoking and that giving up smoking might make their conditions worse.
For the new study, Prochaska and her colleagues recruited smokers between July 2006 and December 2008 from an inpatient psychiatry unit on the UCSF medical school campus.
The psychiatric unit was a smoke-free environment, but the researchers write that few smokers were offered or referred for smoking cessation treatment.
They recruited 224 patients who had smoked at least five cigarettes per day before their hospitalization, were at least 18 years old and spoke fluent English. The most common psychiatric diagnoses were depression and schizophrenia.
The researchers randomly assigned 111 of the participants to receive the usual care provided by the psychiatric unit and 113 to receive smoking cessation treatment.
The smoking cessation treatment consisted of determining where a person was in the process of quitting at the start of the program, completing a computer program and a counseling session, and receiving free nicotine replacement patches for up to six months after hospitalization. Letters were also mailed to patients' primary care doctors requesting their support.
After three months, 3 percent of the usual care group had not smoked a cigarette in seven days. That compared to about 14 percent among those who went through the smoking cessation program.
By 18 months, about 8 percent of the usual care group was smoke-free, compared to 20 percent of patients assigned to the program.
The researchers say people without psychiatric illnesses who participate in smoking cessation programs have a quit rate of about 25 percent.
Prochaska and her colleagues also found that patients who received usual care were almost twice as likely to be hospitalized for psychiatric treatment again as those who went through the program.
"I think this is a really important paper that they did. In a way, it really challenges psychiatric hospitals to address something they've been neglecting for some time," Dr. Nancy Rigotti, a professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School in Boston who has studied tobacco control, said.
"Psychiatric hospitals can adopt something like this and benefit patients in an additional way other than treating the illness that brought them into the hospital," Rigotti, who was not involved with the new study, said.
Prochaska said her team is currently working with a health economist to examine the cost effectiveness of the program, and that it's looking "encouraging."

Google Is Giving Millions in Cash Directly to the Poor
by: David Harris-Gershon on May 29th, 2013 | 2 Comments »
The idea of giving cash directly to the poor, rather than donating to non-profits which provide services, is anathema to most Americans.
A principal reason for this is the way in which we as a society view panhandlers, who have unfortunately come to personify those who are in desperate and immediate need of financial assistance.
Not only has giving cash to those asking for it become frowned upon out of a fear that such money will be spent to support substance addictions, but the very act of panhandling has been criminalized across America. (Of 234 cities surveyed, the National Law Center on Homelessness & Poverty found 53 percent had criminalized public begging.)
Which is why, when Google's Director of Giving, Jacquelline Fuller, told a superior that she wanted to funnel millions of dollars of cash directly into the hands of the world's poorest people, he responded, "You must be smoking crack."
But this is precisely what GiveDirectly, a non-profit based in the U.S., has been doing for some time in Kenya: finding poor villagers and transferring donations directly to them via a cellphone. And the data shows that it's working.
So much so that Google has donated $2.5 million, and Facebook Co-Founder, Chris Hughes, now sits on the board of GiveDirectly and has been aggressively pitching the idea of direct giving to venture capitalists and those with money to give.
The idea of directly donating cash electronically to the world's poorest people has been around since at least 2008. Per Forbes:
Paul Niehaus, an assistant professor of economics at UC San Diego and a board member of GiveDirect, came up with the idea of transferring money to poor people's cell phones back in 2008. He was working with the Indian government to limit corruption and saw how the government there transferred money to people's phones. "I realized I could do that myself," Niehaus told me. He told the gathering in San Francisco that most of the money that's donated to help poor people goes to international development organizations, not poor people directly. GiveDirectly's giving has had "big impacts on nutrition, education, land and livestock" and "hasn't been shown to increase how much people drink," Niehaus emphasized. "A typical poor person is poor not because he is irresponsible, but because he was born in Africa."
GiveDirectly finds poor households – typically people who live in mud huts with thatched roofs – and uses a system called M-Pesa, run by Vodafone , to transfer money to their cell phones. Transaction fees eat up a mere 3 cents per donated dollar. Niehaus says plenty of recipients use the money to upgrade their homes by adding a metal roof.
Now, giving cash cannot solve every problem. However, doing so directly can dramatically help the world's poorest people, who routinely must weigh unspeakable financial choices: Shelter or clothes? Food or education for my children?
Direct giving, as a concept, is a burgeoning one – and one that research shows is working in sub-Saharan Africa.
Perhaps the idea of direct giving in the United States is one that should be receiving more public attention. And by direct giving, I don't necessarily mean giving to panhandlers. I mean this: if there was a way, in the wake of Hurricane Sandy, to give direct donations to people left homeless rather than to the Red Cross, would you prefer the former?
If there was a reputable non-profit capable of identifying Americans in direct need of financial assistance, would you choose to give directly to them as opposed to a service organization?
It's a question worth considering.

County Cork Irish Pub Where the wind is always at your back and a Guinness is always on hand
There is a land, far across the sea, where "the road rises to meet you, the wind is always at your back, the sun shines warm upon your face, and the rains fall softly upon your fields". It is home to the Blarney Stone, Sheep's Head peninsula, rolling hills of green and miles of unspoiled coastline. It is also the homeland of Ireland's best export, County Cork's own "Cora from Cork". Cora from Cork left the verdant hills of Ireland eight years ago, and now, along with her husband Patrick from Pawtucket, welcomes you to their cozy pub, County Cork Irish Pub. Once the home of "Oma & Opa's" breakfast nook, this newly opened pub is now owned by this dynamic duo who joyfully invites you to come in, pull up a barstool and relax.
County Cork Irish Pub is as true to its name as you can imagine. The signature colors of Ireland bathe the walls and the rich, polished wood of the original bar make you feel as though you are on the Emerald Isle itself. There is a real comfort and familiarity here that beckons you in to gulp down an authentic Guinness beer, Irish whiskey or maybe even one of Cork's humble "Paddy's". When eating inside, diners are treated to a breath-taking view of glistening Warwick Cove, but the best spot in the house is seated on the outside terrace, overlooking the bay.
Offering up a full service bar of everything from frothy beers and malts to finer wines and whiskeys, County Cork serves their brew up in 20 ounce frothy glasses,, not your usual 16 ounce ones. You can also choose from a delicious menu of specialty items, including Cora's homemade Irish Guinness Stew and chowder. Try one of County Cork's very own hand cut fries with their one-of-a-kind curry sauce or a "Bacon Buddy" (a BLT, made with Irish bacon, of course!) The menu is perfect pub fare - hearty, fresh and flavorful. Just bring your dinghy up to the "Dinghy Dock" and settle in for an unforgettable experience.
County Cork held its grand opening on (appropriately so) St. Patrick's Day, and has been going strong ever since. From that time forward, there will be live entertainment every weekend, including the lovely and authentic Celtic voice of Cora from Cork herself. As if it could get any better, local Irish musicians are invited to come and play in one of County Cork's monthly "jam sessions". Don't miss it.
County Cork Irish Pub is located at 50 Waterfront Drive near Greenwich Bay Marina. For questions or directions, call 732-2675. Hours are M-F, 3:00pm to 1:00am, and Sat. - Sunday, 1:00pm - 1:00am. (Hours are changing at the end of April! Stay tuned!) Cora and Patrick are waiting with your Guinness beer in hand.

I Will Vote
In theory, I do not believe that diasporas should have the right to vote in the elections of their homeland, but as long as Iranian laws allow for non-residents to vote, I think I would be remiss not to vote, especially in such an important election as the upcoming one on June 12.
Although the site is still under construction, this page provides information on voting locations in the United States. Canada only allows voting in Ottowa (based on some lame security argument), so Iranians from all over Canada can only vote in one location. This is really too bad, since thousands of Iranians in Canada will be unable to trek across that gigantic country just to cast their vote in the capital. I don't have information for voters in other countries, but the best bet is to refer to the local Iranian embassy.
Iranian presidential elections have been very exciting since the late 90s, but this one seems to be breaking a record, and I predict a very high turn out both in Iran and abroad. The rallies, events, and active street campaigns (and street fights) have made it evident that those in Iran are fully geared to participate in the elections; the video below of diasporic Iranians indicates that the election fever has spread far beyond Iran's borders.
If you can vote, please do.
(Thanks to my cousin and my friend Sima for the above links)

When John Boyd Dunlop – a Scottish veterinarian - created the first pneumatic tyre back in 1888, he was simply trying to improve the performance and comfort of his son's bicycle. The tyre succeeded in its goals and gave John Boyd Dunlop the foundations to start a company that would later be known as "Dunlop Tyres".
From its humble, yet highly innovative beginnings, Dunlop has grown to be one of the world's top tyre brands known the world over - a reputation that the company has always taken very seriously and works tirelessly to maintain.
Even though Dunlop Tyres merged with the American giant Goodyear in 1999, it still keeps intact its own essential values and features.

5 stars Susan N Featured review
Dr. Kathleen is the BEST @ her craft, and it is a craft. Her many years of dental experience and outstanding commitment to making sure everything she does is done to the highest standards is a winning combo. I had a four hour procedure and was a bit nervous. Because she is so good at what she does and her caring personality made the time go by so quickly. She even called me that night to check in and see how I felt or if I had any questions, ahhh yay that pretty much says it all!! A+++
We understand the apprehension behind long dental procedures and strive to keep you comfortable during your procedure. Dr. Jaroch and our
whole team will never cut corners to reduce time spent in the chair.
Thank you for your kind review

From the front desk to the chair with my mouth open, everyone was very personable, professionally caring, instilling confidence in the ability of the entire staff.
