U.S. Route 9 in New York
U.S. Route 9 (US 9) is a part of the U.S. Highway System that runs from Laurel, Delaware, to Champlain, New York. In New York, US 9 extends 324.72 miles (522.59 km) from the George Washington Bridge in Manhattan to an interchange with Interstate 87 (I-87) just south of the Canada–United States border in the town of Champlain. US 9 is the longest north–south U.S. Highway in New York; additionally, the portion of US 9 in New York accounts for more than half of the highway's total length.
The highway's passage through the state offers a diverse sample of New York to a traveler, passing through busy urban neighborhoods, suburban strips, and forested wilderness. It is Broadway in Upper Manhattan, the Bronx and much of Westchester County,[3] and uses parts of the old Albany Post Road in the Hudson Valley, where it passes the historic homes of a U.S. President (Franklin Delano Roosevelt) and Gilded Age heir.[4] It passes the center of New York political power in downtown Albany,[5] and the patrician grandeur of Saratoga Springs.[6] It penetrates into the deep recesses of the Adirondack Park and runs along the shore of Lake Champlain,[7] where it is part of the All-American Road known as the Lakes to Locks Passage.[8]
US 9 spawns more letter-suffixed state highways than any other route in New York, including the longest, 143-mile (230 km) New York State Route 9N (NY 9N).[9] Outside of the cities it passes through, it is a mostly a two-lane road, save for two expressway segments in the mid-Hudson region. For much of its southern half it follows the Hudson River closely; in the north it tracks I-87 (the Adirondack Northway).

Route description[edit]
The New York segment of US 9 can be divided into the section south of Albany, which parallels the Hudson River closely, and the portion north of Albany, which takes in a long section of the eastern Adirondacks.[10] New York State Bicycle Route 9 follows the US 9 corridor, diverging from the route in areas not conducive to bicycling. For example, Bicycle Route 9 follows US 9W in northern New Jersey and Rockland County, crosses the Bear Mountain Bridge, and follows NY 9D and NY 301 back to US 9 in Putnam County.[11]
New York City and the Hudson Valley[edit]
US 9 enters New York as part of an expressway, soon becoming a surface street and major urban and suburban artery. Outside of the expressway portions, it is mostly a two- or four-lane road save for a lengthy four-lane strip that leads into one of the expressways. It runs near the river more frequently in the southern areas, but it is never very far inland.[12]
New York City[edit]
The concurrency between US 1 and US 9 that began in New Jersey ends at the first exit from I-95 on the George Washington Bridge, when US 9 heads north via 178th and 179th streets to Broadway. Broadway passes through the Washington Heights neighborhood and then into Inwood, the northernmost neighborhood on the island. The region in which US 9 passes through has a large Latino immigrant population.[13] The northernmost section of the New York City Subway's underground IND Eighth Avenue Line (A train) runs along Broadway between Dyckman Street and the Inwood–207th Street terminal. On the corner of 204th Street is the Dyckman House, the only original farmhouse left in Manhattan and a National Historic Landmark.[14]
Near the island's northern tip, at the intersection with 215th Street, the elevated IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line (1 train) of the New York City Subway joins Broadway. At the very tip of Manhattan, just past Columbia University's Lawrence A. Wien Stadium, US 9 crosses the Harlem River Ship Canal via the Broadway Bridge, into Marble Hill, the only portion of Manhattan on the mainland. The Marble Hill Metro-North station here is the first of several along US 9.[12]
At or just south of 230th Street, US 9, still Broadway, enters the Bronx. It draws alongside I-87, here the Major Deegan Expressway, the first of many encounters between the two roads on their northward course. At the 242nd Street station, the subway ends and Broadway runs along the west side of Van Cortlandt Park. The Henry Hudson Parkway interchange a mile up this stretch adds NY 9A to US 9.[10]
Westchester County[edit]
The northwestern corner of the park marks the city limit and US 9 enters Yonkers, where it is now known as South Broadway. It trends closer to the Hudson River, remaining a busy urban commercial street. In downtown Yonkers, it drops close to the river, becomes North Broadway and NY 9A leaves via Ashburton Avenue. US 9 climbs to the nearby ridgetop runs parallel to the river and the railroad, a few blocks east of both as it passes St. John's Riverside Hospital. The neighborhoods become more residential and the road gently undulates along the ridgetop.[10] In Yonkers, US 9 passes historic Philipse Manor house, which dates back to colonial America.[15]
It remains Broadway as it leaves Yonkers for Hastings-on-Hudson, where it splits into separate north and south routes for 0.6 miles (1.0 km). The trees become taller and the houses, many separated from the road by stone fences, become larger. Another National Historic Landmark, the John William Draper House, was the site of the first astrophotograph of the Moon.[10]
In the next village, Dobbs Ferry, US 9 has various views of the Hudson River while passing through the residential section. The highway passes by the Old Croton Aqueduct and nearby the shopping district of the village. After intersecting with Ashford Avenue, US 9 passes Mercy College, then turns left again at the center of town just past South Presbyterian Church, headed for equally comfortable Ardsley-on-Hudson and Irvington. Villa Lewaro, the home of C.J. Walker (1867-1919), the first African-American millionaire, is along the highway here.[16] At the north end of the village of Irvington, a memorial to writer Washington Irving, after whom the village was renamed, marks the turnoff to his home at Sunnyside. Entering into the southern portion of Tarrytown, US 9 passes by historic Lydhurst mansion, a massive mansion built along the Hudson River built in the early 1800s.
North of here, at the Kraft Foods technical center, the Tappan Zee Bridge becomes visible. After crossing over the Thruway and I-87, here concurrent with I-287, and then intersecting with the four-lane NY 119, where NY 119 splits off to the east, US 9 becomes the busy main street of Tarrytown. Christ Episcopal Church, where Irving worshiped,[17] is along the street. Many high quality restaurants and shops are along this main road. This downtown ends at the eastern terminus of NY 448, where US 9 slopes off to the left, downhill, and two signs indicate that US 9 turns left, passing the Old Dutch Church of Sleepy Hollow, another NHL. The road then enters Sleepy Hollow (formerly North Tarrytown), passing the visitors' center for Kykuit, the National Historic Landmark that was (and partially still is) the Rockefeller family's estate.[10] US 9 then passes the historic Sleepy Hollow Cemetery, which includes the resting place of Washington Irving and the setting for The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.[18]
US 9 expands to four lanes at the trumpet intersection with NY 117; Broadway finally ends and US 9 becomes Albany Post Road. Entering Ossining's downtown, US 9 becomes Highland Avenue and continues to rise and fall, widen and narrow, through the riverside community.[10] US 9 passes in close proximity to Sing Sing correctional facility before heading towards Croton.[19]
Croton Expressway[edit]
Just after Ossining, NY 9A returns and merges with US 9 for approximately 1,500 feet (457 m) as it crosses the mouth of the Croton River and becomes the 9.2-mile (14.8 km) Croton Expressway. The only section built of the cancelled I-487, the highway is generally built to interstate standards. NY 9A leaves the freeway and returns to two lanes, following the parent route's old course, at the first exit, Croton Point Avenue in Croton-on-Hudson, where NY 129 reaches its western end. Here the modern concrete ramps of Metro-North's Croton–Harmon station, also served by Amtrak, are prominent to the west as Haverstraw Bay becomes visible.[10] US 9 also passes the Indian Point Energy Center, a nuclear power-plant that supplies power to Westchester County and New York City.[20] The facility is visible from the majority of the northern half of the expressway.[21]
The expressway veers inland for much of its route, preferring to follow the railroad tracks (the new Cortlandt station is visible to the west at one point), rather than the river past the promontory at Buchanan. NY 9A, as a surface street, ends at its parent at the Welcher Street exit. It continues on a reconstructed, widened section through Peekskill. Despite recent upgrades to freeway standards, the northern end of the highway still maintains a lower 45-mile-per-hour (72 km/h) speed limit.
1 mile (1.6 km) from the freeway's northern terminus, US 202 and US 6 join the freeway. NY 35 reaches its western terminus at that same junction. The four-lane divided highway's northern terminus is at a stoplight at a three-way intersection with the Bear Mountain State Parkway. The parkway continues straight from this intersection while US 6/9/202 turns left and crosses Annsville Creek.[10]
Peekskill to Poughkeepsie[edit]
550 feet (168 m) north of that junction, the routes enter the Annsville traffic circle. While 6 and 202 remain concurrent and exit the circle on its west side, continuing up the river towards the Bear Mountain Bridge, US 9 exits the roundabout on the northeast side. It continues due north as two-lane Albany Post Road. Running inland and mostly free of development behind the Hudson Highlands, it enters Putnam County. NY 403 reaches its eastern terminus at the same intersection where the Appalachian Trail crosses the road. The gas station here has, when in service, long been a favorite stop for thru-hikers. A few miles further to the north, at the Indian Brook Road intersection, the highway passes through Nelson's Corner, a rare surviving early 19th-century country hamlet. Old Albany Post Road, a 6.6-mile (10.6 km) remnant of US 9's original and one of the oldest dirt roads still in use in the country, comes in from the right a mile on. The only other intersection of note in Putnam County is its main east–west state route, NY 301, which crosses US 9 several miles further north, just a mile south of the Dutchess County line.
US 9 passes Dutchess Mall, a dead mall, before passing the historic Van Wyck Homestead. In Fishkill, the route meets I-84. At the interstate exit, the road expands into a four-lane strip similar to the form it takes in Central New Jersey, complete with much commercial development on both sides. It will remain this way to Poughkeepsie. This stretch is an important, if often congested, transportation artery for the county.[10]
Just north of I-84, US 9 clips off a corner of the village of Fishkill, where the intersection with NY 52 creates a heavily congested situation at rush hours since traffic going from southbound US 9 to westbound I-84 often uses it as a shortcut. The remaining miles to Wappingers Falls boast many intersections as well, but are not quite as heavy.[10]
In the Town of Poughkeepsie, just after the northern terminus of NY 9D, US 9 passes another distressed mall, South Hills and its healthier, newer counterpart, the Poughkeepsie Galleria. A mile further north, NY 113 swings to the west at a cloverleaf interchange near the IBM plant, once the region's major employer. Entering the city of Poughkeepsie, at Sharon Drive, US 9 returns to expressway status once again. Two miles (3.2 km) north of Sharon, the highway connects to the US 44/NY 55 concurrency at an interchange in close proximity to the Mid-Hudson Bridge. This creates some unusual left exits, as traffic from 44/55 east wanting to go north on US 9 is routed into a U-turn south of the highway, and likewise northbound drivers on US 9 must get turned around to go west over the river. The limited-access highway comes to an end at the intersection with NY 9G near Marist College.[10]
Poughkeepsie to Albany[edit]
North of Poughkeepsie, US 9 is at first a busy four-lane undivided route, with occasional turn lanes as it approaches Hyde Park, passing Marist College, the main campus of the Culinary Institute of America and then the home and presidential library of native Franklin D. Roosevelt. It narrows to two lanes at the built-up area that marks the center of town, then opens up a turn lane for traffic entering the third of the town's tourist attractions, Vanderbilt Mansion National Historic Site.[10]
Past Hyde Park, the road narrows to two lanes again as traffic becomes more local. The area recalls Westchester County with many wooded tracts and stone walls at roadside. Through here it has been running fairly close to the river, but after Staatsburg the highway begins to veer inland again. The land to the west, between road and river, forms the Hudson River Historic District, the largest in the country and another National Historic Landmark. US 9 is at least 2 miles (3 km) east of the river when it reaches Rhinebeck, the next town along the route, where NY 308 heads off to the east,[10] and close to the Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome aviation museum.
At Weys Corners, the X-shaped intersection north of Rhinebeck, northbound traffic to the river and the Kingston–Rhinecliff Bridge via NY 199 typically bears left onto NY 9G. Southbound traffic, in turn, takes NY 199 itself to the river when the two meet in Red Hook 3 miles (5 km) further ahead. Two blocks north of that junction are the Village Diner, originally named the Halfway Diner since it was roughly halfway along US 9 from New York City to Albany, and the Elmendorph Inn, a mid-18th century counterpart to the diner. North of Red Hook, the land around the road begins to open up into farms and fields, offering frequent views of the Catskill Escarpment across the river. This terrain continues into Columbia County, which US 9 enters 5 miles (8 km) beyond Red Hook.[10]
The road remains two lanes, with mostly local traffic and no stop signs or traffic lights, until the oblique four-way intersection in Bell Pond, 10 miles (16 km) into the county. Here, NY 23 joins US 9 as it heads west, which in turn joins NY 9H on the northern roadway while NY 82 departs to the southeast. 1.5 miles (2.4 km) west, in Greenport, US 9 turns northward again toward Hudson, the county seat, passing the St. Lawrence-owned cement plant whose expansion was recently blocked by community activists after seven contentious years.[10][22]
On the east fringe of Hudson's historic downtown, US 9 intersects the northern terminus of NY 9G and NY 23B. NY 23B runs concurrent with US 9 for a short distance eastward before splitting at Fairview Avenue, which US 9 follows out of Hudson. A commercial strip with turn lane gives way after 1.75 miles (2.82 km) to the lightly traveled rural two-lane US 9 north of Hudson. Near Stockport, US 9 meets the southern terminus of NY 9J. Farther north, after passing through Kinderhook, home of another U.S. president, Martin Van Buren, the road passes under NY 9H at a grade-separated interchange before intersecting the northern terminus of NY 9H a short distance later outside Valatie.[10] When a developer wanted to add a fifth leg to this intersection for a new shopping center, the state Department of Transportation required the developer to convert the signalized intersection to a roundabout, despite heavy local opposition.[23]
The highway widens to four lanes with a turn lane shortly after crossing into Renesslaer County, and will remain so for most of the rest of the way to Albany, despite limited development and low traffic in some areas. Within a mile of the county line it passes under the New York State Thruway Berkshire Connector and meets the lone section of I-90 in New York not part of the Thruway system, at exit 12 southeast of Castleton-on-Hudson. 4 miles (6 km) north of I-90 and 4 miles (6 km) northwest of Nassau, US 9 veers left to merge with US 20 in Schodack Center, and together they progress northwest toward Albany. Less than 0.5 miles (0.8 km) from the eastern terminus of the overlap, US 9 and US 20 intersect NY 150 before connecting to I-90 at exit 11.[10]
As the roadway heads westward, it meets the western (southern for state purposes) terminus of US 4 across from a Hannaford supermarket along the busy commercial strip in East Greenbush. Shortly afterwards the first sign of the state capital, the Erastus Corning Tower, starts becoming visible. At a bluff east of the river, the entire Albany skyline comes into view as the road descends, passing the northern terminus of NY 9J south of Rensselaer. US 9 and US 20 then cross the Hudson River via the Dunn Memorial Bridge into Albany as Corning Tower and the other buildings of Empire State Plaza loom ahead, and the two routes separate, with US 20 heading west across the city.[10]
Albany and North[edit]
North of Albany, US 9 starts to pull away from the Hudson corridor, eventually picking up I-87, now the Adirondack Northway.
Albany to Saratoga Springs[edit]
After the bridge, US 9 runs under I-787 for several blocks, then takes an offramp past the Albany Pump House to become Clinton Avenue. There it intersects the two routes which have paralleled US 9 up the west side of the Hudson. At Pearl Street and the Palace Theatre, it crosses NY 32 (North Pearl Street), which continues north, and US 9W (Lark Street), which ends at the junction. US 9 turns north on Henry Johnson Boulevard and widens to cross I-90 again via a flyover originally built for the canceled Mid-Crosstown Arterial, exiting the city of Albany in the process.[10]
Just before reaching the northern suburb of Colonie, US 9 returns to two lanes and follows Loudon Road through well-to-do residential neighborhoods past Albany Memorial Hospital and Wolferts Roost Country Club. The short NY 377 forks off to the north while US 9 trends slightly westward. A five-way intersection marks Loudonville. Siena College in Newtonville is on the east side a mile past the junction, with the Colonie Town Hall opposite.[10]
Continuing northward into Latham, the highway adds a middle turn lane. NY 155 intersects as the Northway draws near to the west. Beyond, the road expands to four lanes and commercial property resumes. At the Latham Circle US 9 crosses beneath NY 2. A mile further north, the expressway portion of NY 7 crosses over for eastbound traffic, and then NY 9R goes off to the east, to return 2 miles (3 km) further north. At the junction, US 9 starts to trend eastward again, away from the Northway, and finally crosses the Mohawk River into Saratoga County via the Crescent Bridge at the northernmost point of Albany County.[10]
A new name, Halfmoon Parkway, comes with the change of county, after the town the road runs through. The eastward bent reverses itself as another state route, NY 236 forks off to the north. By the time US 9 reaches the NY 146 junction in Clifton Park, the Northway is right alongside again. The roads continue running parallel courses past Round Lake as NY 67 joins US 9 into Malta, leaving 1.6 miles (2.6 km) later at the center of town for its own exit along the Northway. Another 1.5 miles (2.4 km) to the north, another lettered subroute of US 9, NY 9P, leaves east for Saratoga Lake.
US 9 itself has its first exit with the Northway, its first junction with I-87 since Tarrytown in fact, 2 miles (3 km) north of NY 9P. This full cloverleaf is the main exit for Saratoga Springs. The resort town's historic downtown is 4 miles (6 km) ahead, past Saratoga Spa State Park and Congress Park. Here US 9, as South Broadway, begins a concurrency with NY 50 and, later, briefly, with NY 29. NY 9P completes its loop here, and another lettered route, NY 9N, the longest letter-suffixed route in the state, begins at the post office. Tacking eastward out of town, US 9 and NY 50 follow Van Dam Street until US 9 returns to a northerly course on Marion Avenue, which becomes Maple Avenue at the city limit.[10]
Saratoga Springs to Lake George[edit]
Once past the sleeve of development around the highway north of the city, US 9 leaves the Albany metropolitan area as it gets less developed through Wilton and Moreau. The Palmerstown Range begins to rise on one side, anticipating the mountainous country to come. From the hamlet of Kings Station onward, what is now signed as Saratoga Road follows a straight northeast course for 10 miles (16 km) through more wooded countryside to the entrance to Moreau Lake State Park. A mile further on, US 9 again intersects the Northway at exit 17.[10]
Another 1.5 miles (2.4 km) brings it to the western end of NY 197 (Reynolds Road). US 9 continues straight ahead for the next 3 miles (5 km) into the village of South Glens Falls, where NY 32 (Gansevoort Road), comes in at an oblique angle from the south and merges with US 9 to cross the Hudson via the Cooper's Cave Bridge for the last time, leave Saratoga County and enter the Warren County city of Glens Falls.[10]
The two routes follow Glen Street to Centennial Circle, a five-legged roundabout in the center of the city's downtown area, where 32 leaves to the right via Warren Street and NY 9L takes Ridge Street due north. US 9 continues via Glen to the northwest, becoming Upper Glen Street at the city limit. NY 254 (Aviation Road) comes in from its nearby western terminus at the Northway. The highway remains heavily developed for the next 3 miles (5 km) to a junction with another route beginning at I-87, NY 149. It joins with US 9 briefly before leaving to the east north of the Adirondack–Lake George Outlet Mall. Many vehicles make that turn, as NY 149 is the best route from the Northway into southern Vermont, 30 miles (48 km) to the east.[10]
US 9 continues to parallel the interstate. At the Queensbury-Lake George town line, a massive wooden shingle lets drivers know they have crossed the Blue Line into the Adirondack Park. The route straightens out for the next 2.5 miles (4.0 km) into the village of Lake George, a popular tourist destination.[10]
It takes the name Canada Street, and NY 9N comes in from the west to run concurrently with. The two routes widen to a busy four-lane road past shops catering to a busy tourist trade. Shortly thereafter, NY 9L loops back to the parent route, after having followed the east shore of the lake that gives the village its name. At the northern end of the village of Lake George, NY 9N splits via Lake Shore Drive to follow the western shore, and US 9 itself takes a northwesterly turn to remain parallel with the Northway.[10]
Adirondack Park[edit]
Past Lake George, US 9 enters the Adirondack Park. The next 90 miles (145 km) of the highway runs through the eastern section of the largest protected area east of the Mississippi, 6,100,000 acres (24,690 km2) with vast tracts of Forest Preserve kept "forever wild" per the state constitution. Accordingly, US 9 remains a two-lane rural road, often very close to the Adirondack Northway, a section of Interstate 87, throughout the park. Development, traffic and population are minimal, the surrounding land is heavily wooded and the two roads cover very long distances between very small towns.[10]
After Lake George, there is another exit with the Northway, to ease access to the village by southbound traffic. US 9 remains very close to the Northway on its east side, resulting in another exit 4 miles (6 km) north. This serves Warrensburg, where NY 418 reaches its eastern terminus. The highway begins to move further away from the interstate, and 3 miles (5 km) further, NY 28 concludes its long bow-shaped route at a junction with US 9.[10]
Nearly 9 miles (14 km) north, at Chestertown, US 9 meets and joins NY 8, which carries it due west almost 4 miles (6 km) to Loon Lake. After crossing over a southwestern bay of the lake, US 9 turns right and is once again on its own, trending northeast alongside the lake's western shore to eventually reach the Northway again in 4 miles (6 km). This exit serves only northbound traffic. A mile later, there is access to the other direction.[10]
The road begins to run along the west shore of Schroon Lake, in the process crossing into Essex County. Shortly after the county line, an access road leads to I-87 again. It is 7 miles (11 km) from here, past the hamlet of Schroon Lake at the water's northern tip, that US 9 intersects NY 74, like NY 254 and NY 149 fresh off its western terminus at the Northway. Signs at this junction use Ticonderoga, 17 miles (27 km) to the east, as a control city, an indication of how sparsely populated the park is.[10]
US 9 remains close to the interstate for the next 16 miles (26 km) into the town of North Hudson, where Boreas Road provides access to the Dix Mountain Wilderness Area the southernmost in the Adirondack High Peaks region. The highway again crosses the interstate to connect I-87 to the western terminus of NY 73, the well-traveled scenic route to Keene Valley and Lake Placid. At this ornate junction, US 9 is at 1,155 feet (340 m) above sea level, the highest elevation it reaches along its entire length.[10]
The right turn takes it again to the northeast past Rocky Peak Ridge and the Giant Mountain Wilderness Area, to the hamlet of New Russia. This 10-mile (16 km) stretch brings the highway to Elizabethtown, the unincorporated county seat and the first settlement US 9 has passed through since Warrensburg. NY 9N comes through town from the west; it and US 9 briefly overlap.[10]
While the land remains mostly forested as the road continues its northeast course from Elizabethtown, it begins to descend somewhat as the valley of Lake Champlain draws near. US 9 eventually draws close to the Northway again at Poke-O-Moonshine Mountain, the Adirondacks' most popular climbing spot. In Chesterfield, 18 miles (29 km) without a major highway junction are ended when NY 22 joins US 9 after its exit, the first pairing of two highways that begin their journey upstate in New York City.[10]
The two routes enter Keeseville, where in mid-village they cross the Ausable River and enter Clinton County. NY 9N reappears here, reaching its northern terminus. North of the village, the two routes split again and exchange the roles they had been playing for their entire northward journey. US 9 takes the eastward fork to the lake, running close to the state's edge; while 22 will run inland from here to the border.[10]
After Keeseville, US 9 follows AuSable Chasm down to the lake shore. It crosses the Ausable and briefly re-enters Essex County long enough for the short NY 373 to provide access to the Burlington–Port Kent Ferry. A third and final crossing takes it out of the Adirondack Park.[10]
Lake Champlain, Plattsburgh and Canada[edit]
After US 9 passes Ausable Marsh Wildlife Management Area and NY 442 comes in from the east at the small hamlet of Peru, US 9 heads down to the shore of the lake itself, which it will stay close to all the way into Plattsburgh as Lakes to Locks Passage. On clear days it is possible to see Burlington across the water. Ahead lies Valcour Island. In the narrow, rocky strait between it and the shore, Benedict Arnold's hastily built fleet held off the British on October 11, 1776 in the Battle of Valcour Island in what is considered the first battle in U.S. naval history. More recent military history is apparent shortly thereafter when US 9 passes now-closed Plattsburgh Air Force Base, a pillar of the regional economy Plattsburgh has struggled to replace.[10][24]
When it actually enters Plattsburgh, it becomes first U.S. Avenue, then Peru Street when it passes the Old Catholic Cemetery. The Saranac River draws alongside twice before US 9 takes a left turn at Bridge Street and crosses it. Just past the bridge, the highway turns left again onto City Hall Place at the center of town. US 9 passes in front of the City Hall designed by John Russell Pope, also the builder of the Jefferson Memorial in Washington. Two more quick lefts follow past the large obelisk of Riverside Park, onto Miller and Cornelia streets, and then US 9 turns right at the eastern terminus of the lengthy NY 3 to follow Margaret Street north and out of the city.[10]
It bends northeast to return to the lake shore shortly after the city limit, following alongside Cumberland Bay. At the Dead Creek crossing, US 9 widens to four lanes for the first time since the Albany area to handle the heavy traffic at the junction with the eastern terminus of NY 314, which continues east on County Route 57 to another ferry connector, just southeast of the Northway. 2 miles (3 km) north of the junction, after North Country Shopping Center, the highway returns to two lanes and the name Lakes to Locks Passage as it overlooks Woodruff Pond and Treadwell Bay. I-87 is visible a thousand feet (305 m) to the east across the many open fields as the two roads parallel each other's turns closely.[10]
Another short route, County Route 58, formerly NY 456, comes in from the west and terminates at US 9 shortly after the right turn for Point Au Roche State Park. Continuing northward, the road deviates to the east slightly in the Town of Chazy, but returns to its previous track by the interstate at the Little Chazy River bridge. Shortly afterwards, US 9 intersects County Route 23 (Miner Farm Road, formerly NY 191 west of US 9).[10]
US 9 runs straight due north, no longer taking another name, 3 miles (5 km) to the next major intersection, NY 9B (Lavalley Road), its last sub-route. NY 9B does not terminate but instead runs to the lake shore and eventually north to Rouses Point. A bend slightly to the west, closer to the Northway, brings the next 3-mile (5 km) stretch to US 9's last major intersection, US 11, just south of Champlain.[10]
US 9 winds through the quiet border village as its Main Street, turning west-northwest near Champlain's northern boundary to make its last water crossing over the Chazy River. The route, still known as Main Street, heads northwest towards the Northway to follow it for the last 0.5 miles (0.8 km), passing a few customs brokerages towards its official end at the on-ramp to the last exit. Traffic to Canada must get on I-87 here.[10]
The roadway continues as the East Service Road, unsigned NY 971B, for another 0.46 miles (0.74 km).[2] This was the former route of US 9 to the border prior to the construction of the Northway. It is devoid of any development save some long vacant and abandoned lots, finally ending in a parking lot 400 feet (120 m) south of the border from which the Canadian customs station at the south end of Autoroute 15 is visible. [10]
Much of what is now US 9 in New York was assigned an unsigned legislative route designation by the New York State Legislature in 1908. Route 2 joined modern US 9 at Archville (north of Tarrytown) and followed it north to Croton-on-Hudson, where it turned off to the northeast on modern NY 129. The legislative route rejoined what is now US 9 at Peekskill and remained on it to Valatie, where it met Route 1. Route 2 ended here while Route 1 continued north to Albany on current US 9. From Albany to Clifton Park and from South Glens Falls to Riparius, modern US 9 was part of Route 25. At Riparius, Route 25 met Route 22, which utilized what is now US 9 from Riparius to Elizabethtown and from Keeseville to the town of Champlain. While modern US 9 travels directly from Elizabethtown to Keeseville and bypasses Rouses Point to the west, Route 25 used current NY 9N between Elizabethtown and Keeseville and served Rouses Point via modern NY 9B.[25][26] Routes 2 and 25 were realigned slightly on March 1, 1921, to utilize the modern US 9 corridor from Croton-on-Hudson to Peekskill and from Saratoga Springs to South Glens Falls, respectively.[27]
When the first set of posted routes in New York were assigned in 1924, the general routing of modern US 9 was designated as NY 6, which went from the New York City line at Yonkers north to the Canadian border near Rouses Point.[28] From New York City, NY 6 followed current US 9 north to Tarrytown, where it joined legislative Route 2 and continued north through Valatie to Albany via legislative Routes 1 and 2. North of Albany, NY 6 served Cohoes, Mechanicville, and Round Lake via modern NY 32 and NY 67. At Round Lake, NY 6 rejoined the path of current US 9 and headed north to Saratoga Springs. Past Saratoga Springs, NY 6 continued to Rouses Point on legislative Routes 22 and 25.[29][30] NY 6 had two spur routes: NY 6A in Westchester County and NY 6B in Rensselaer and Saratoga counties.[31]
In the original 1925 plan for the U.S. Highway System, US 9 was designated along the west bank of the Hudson River from the New Jersey line to Albany, utilizing then-NY 10. North of Albany, US 9 mostly followed NY 6 to Canada. The lone deviation was from Elizabethtown to Keeseville, where US 9 was routed on a previously unnumbered highway to the east instead. NY 6 east of the Hudson (up to Rensselaer) and a further extension to Glens Falls via Troy, Mechanicville, and Schuylerville was designated as US 109.[29][30] The alignment of US 9 within New York remained unchanged in the final system alignment approved on November 11, 1926.[1] However, when US 9 was commissioned in New York in 1927, the US 109 designation had been dropped and was signed instead as US 9E, but only up to Waterford. The segment on the west bank of the Hudson from New Jersey to Waterford was redesignated as US 9W, with the split routes meeting in Waterford. From there, unsuffixed US 9 began (still along NY 6) and went up to the Canadian border via Rouses Point as planned in 1925.[32]
The former routing of NY 6 between Elizabethtown and Keeseville, bypassed by US 9, became NY 9W at this time.[31][33] A shorter, more inland alternate route between Albany and Round Lake was designated as NY 9C sometime in the late 1920s.[30][34] In the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York, the "E" suffix was dropped from all of US 9E south of East Greenbush—making it part of US 9—while US 9W was truncated southward to end in Albany.[35] At the same time, US 9 was realigned between Albany and Round Lake to use what had been NY 9C.[36] The Waterford–Mechanicville portion of US 9's former routing and the segment of US 9E between East Greenbush and Waterford became part of an extended US 4.[37][38] The remainder of the old riverside route south of Waterford became part of NY 32 while the Round Lake–Mechanicville segment of old US 9 became part of NY 67.[36]
US 9 (and US 9E before it) originally crossed into New Jersey via the Edgewater Ferry in Harlem. It was shifted northward onto the George Washington Bridge when it opened in 1934.[39] In mid-December 1934, US 9 was signed within New York City for the first time, as were several other U.S. Highways and state routes. US 9 followed the George Washington Bridge into Manhattan, where it continued east on 179th Street to Broadway. Here, US 9 turned north as it does today, following Broadway through Manhattan and The Bronx to Yonkers.[40] The route was moved from 179th Street to the Cross Bronx Expressway c. 1963 following the completion of the highway in the vicinity of the eastern bridge approach.[41][42]
In the mid-1940s, the northern end of US 9 was realigned to enter Canada via Champlain instead of Rouses Point. The old route through Rouses Point became NY 9B.[43][44] In the mid-1960s, the Adirondack Northway was completed in the vicinity of Champlain, supplanting the northernmost 1 mile (1.6 km) of US 9.[45][46] US 9 initially overlapped with I-87 from exit 43 to the Canadian border; however, it was truncated to end at exit 43—the last interchange before the border—in the 1970s.[47][48] Part of US 9's former routing to the border was retained as a service road and was designated as NY 971B, an unsigned reference route.[11]
Croton Expressway[edit]
Since the 1940s, an expressway along the US 9 corridor on the east bank of the Hudson River had been planned. Part of the route later became the New York State Thruway (up to Tarrytown). In 1956, there were plans to continue the expressway further north to I-84 in Beacon and beyond. This was one of the proposed alignments for I-87.[49]
In early 1965, this unconstructed expressway was assigned the designation I-487, allowing a commercial-vehicle-accessible means of travel on the east side of the Hudson River. By 1967, strong resident opposition caused the segment from Peekskill to Beacon to be cancelled. In 1971, the section from Tarrytown to Ossining had also been cancelled due to lack of public support. The only portion that was ever built was the section from Crotonville to Peekskill, and was later named the Croton Expressway. The Croton Expressway opened in 1967 with the US 9 designation.[49] The original surface alignment of US 9 became an extension of NY 9A.[46]
Other developments[edit]
In Albany, US 9 was planned to be upgraded to an expressway. It was to run west from the Dunn Memorial Bridge along the South Mall Arterial (co-signed with US 20), then north along the northern half of the Mid-Crosstown Arterial. The southern half would carry US 9W. The Mid-Crosstown Arterial would have begun at the junction of I-787 and the New York State Thruway, connect with the South Mall Arterial at an underground interchange at Washington Park, and continue north to a junction with I-90. The only portion that was actually constructed was in the vicinity of the I-90 interchange (exit 6).[50]
A study by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in 2009 found that US 9 was the deadliest highway in Dutchess County, with 47 fatal accidents on the road in the 1994–2008 period. Police in the town of Poughkeepsie blamed it on the increasing commercialization of US 9 south of the city of Poughkeepsie.[51]
Suffixed routes[edit]
US 9 has had 19 suffixed routes bearing 17 different designations. Most are still in place; however, nine have been removed or renumbered. All of the routes were assigned as part of the 1930 renumbering of state highways in New York unless otherwise noted.[35][38]
- NY 9A (47.49 miles or 76.43 kilometres) is an alternate route of US 9 through Manhattan and Westchester County.[2]
- NY 9B (5.97 miles or 9.61 kilometres) is a spur in Clinton County linking US 9 in Chazy to US 11 in Rouses Point.[2] It was assigned in the mid-1940s.[43][44]
- The NY 9C designation has been used for two distinct highways:
- The first NY 9C was an alternate route assigned to what is now US 9 between Albany and Round Lake in the 1920s. It became part of US 9 in the 1930 renumbering.[35]
- The second NY 9C was an alternate route of US 9 between Croton-on-Hudson and Peekskill, utilizing Mount Airy Road and Washington Street. The designation was eliminated in the early 1930s.[52][53]
- NY 9D (25.21 miles or 40.57 kilometres) is an alternate route of US 9 between the Bear Mountain Bridge and Wappingers Falls.[2]
- NY 9E was a spur linking US 9 to NY 376 (near the Dutchess County Airport) in the vicinity of Wappingers Falls, Dutchess County. It was assigned c. 1933[52][54] and removed c. 1939.[55][56] The route, named New Hackensack Road, is now designated as County Route 104 by Dutchess County.
- NY 9F was an alternate route of US 9 between Poughkeepsie and Hyde Park in Dutchess County. It became part of NY 9G c. 1938.[55][57]
- NY 9G (42.77 miles or 68.83 kilometres) is an alternate route of US 9 from Poughkeepsie, Dutchess County, to Hudson, Columbia County.[2]
- NY 9H (18.77 miles or 30.21 kilometres) is an easterly alternate to US 9 between Bell Pond and Valatie.[2] It was assigned c. 1932.[54][58]
- NY 9J (22.38 miles or 36.02 kilometres) is an alternate route of US 9 from Columbiaville to Rensselaer. NY 9J follows a more westerly alignment than US 9 to serve a series of communities along the Hudson River.[2]
- NY 9K was an alternate route of US 9 between Saratoga Springs and Lake George. It was supplanted by an extended NY 9N in November 1953.[59]
- NY 9L (18.54 miles or 29.84 kilometres) is a loop off of US 9 between Glens Falls and Lake George in Warren County.[2]
- NY 9M was a spur located along the east bank of the Schroon River in Warren County. It connected US 9 near Pottersville to NY 8 in Starbuckville. The route was assigned c. 1931[38][58] and removed c. 1939.[55][56]
- NY 9N (143.13 miles or 230.35 kilometres) is a lengthy alternate route of US 9 between Saratoga Springs and Keeseville. NY 9N is the longest suffixed route in New York.[2]
- NY 9P (12.17 miles or 19.59 kilometres) is a loop route connecting US 9 to Saratoga Lake southeast of Saratoga Springs.[2] It was assigned c. 1936.[53][60]
- NY 9R (3.21 miles or 5.17 kilometres) is a short loop serving Colonie in northeast Albany County.[2] It was assigned c. 1939.[56][61]
- NY 9W, different from the present US 9W, was an alternate route of US 9 between Elizabethtown and Keeseville. It was assigned in 1927[33] and renumbered to NY 9N in the 1930 renumbering.[36]
- The NY 9X designation has been used for two distinct highways:
- The first NY 9X was a loop route connecting US 9 to Saratoga Lake southeast of Saratoga Springs. It was assigned c. 1931[38][58] and renumbered to NY 9P c. 1936.[53][60]
- The second NY 9X was an alternate route of US 9 through New York City in the vicinity of the Harlem River. It was assigned in the mid-1930s[53][57] and removed in the 1940s.[44][62]

The Madone is a bike well known to those familiar with the Trek Road line-up, and has been used by the team, racing at UCI level. The new aero profile was launched in 2013 and is a top general road race bike that caters for all types of road riding.
The everyday road rider who appreciates aerodynamic features is going to get a lot from this bike.
Features include:
Trek's kammtail aerodynamic frame – signature Trek design and technology that essentially creates a more tuned, quality ride that is aerodynamically optimised.
Ride Tuned seatmast (a feature of all Trek bikes) does away with the traditional seatpost clamping forces, which frees Trek up to use less material, and in doing so creates a lighter frame.
Dura Ace 11-speed groupset.
Integrated brakes – front housed at the top, and rear housed at the bottom to minimise aerodynamic drag.

I write (everybody writes) about social media as if it's some magic formula. It's not. Social media is about 7% of the digital marketing toolbox. It's good, it's fun, it's sexy, but without the basics, social media is zero.
You need a digital strategist. And most small businesses can't afford one. This page will capture all the posts that I think are REALLY relevant to running a small business's online marketing program. I will share the results of my learnings here. On this page I will try select only the critical path posts – what you need to know to get it done.
The uber.la Quickie < Marketing Expertise from the Best Sources Summarized for you.
Social Media University < 2 minute educational videos
Social Business MBA < the reading list
Becoming a Social Media Rockstar: The Quick Path < um… let's discuss
The Social Media Strategy Conundrum
If you're talking about social media these days, you're starting the conversation at a disadvantage. Here is my series of posts about the changing perceptions of social media in the business of marketing.
- Death of the Social Media Strategist: Overselling & Underperforming from the Start
- Become a Social Media Rockstar, The Quick Plan
- The Social Media Strategist is Dead
- Social Media Blowback
Demand Generation and Acquisition Strategies of Digital Marketing
Everything we do in digital marketing hinges on the contact and release of personal information by the potential customer. Even if that information is only an email address, we've got to make contact in order to follow up on the transaction, or take the transaction to the next stage in the sales funnel.
Online Customer Flow Chart: Do You Know What Your Business WIN PATHS Are?
We used to talk about "purchase path" analysis back at the bigger companies. This was a fancy way of saying, figure out how easy it is to BUY the product or service you are selling. Today I think we need to look at WIN PATHS. There is more to online marketing than ecommerce. While often the R in ROI gets pegged to sales, there are two other very important WINS in your online box of tricks.
Digital Marketing with Social Media: The Social Media Fairies
IF we begin to think of Social Media Fairies we might be closer to the truth about social media marketing. I'm not suggesting that the metrics and roi calculations are not possible with social media, but without solid programs the social in your marking mix might be good at generating activity, but not so good at generating return. Or in CEO terms, revenue.
Learning to Manage the Information Overload of Social Media
Every morning when I wake up the media and inputs are screaming for my attention. It is up to me what I want to spend time contemplating, writing about, working on. Every single day we have to filter out thousands of messages, grabbing for our mental bandwidth. How do you FILTER? How do you determine what to pay attention to, what to mute (unsubscribe from) and what to simply ignore?
The Simple Strategic Plan for Social Media Marketing
Measure every social media program towards goals. Look for actionable analytics, things you can see and change. And get your numbers down solid. Without the NUMBERS to support your social media marketing program, you will not have one for very long.
Calculating the Value of Social Media for Small and Medium Businesses (SMB)
Yes, we're all tired of hearing about how to make the case for ROI and SOCIAL MEDIA. But guess what, I still have to make that case every day. I'm doing it here. And you will have to do it too. So get out there, try some things, track everything, and share when you find something that works.
Breaking Down the "Value" of a Viral Hit on Social Media
So the ultimate value of this post (and really this entire blog) is more in terms of influence and visibility. Perhaps one of the high-powered folks that tweeted my post will look me up in the future when they need some answers.
Are You a Connector? Giving Referrals & Recommendations Is Part of Your Work
We talk about networking, and social media, and referrals and recommendations. But when asked to provide a resource, do you know how to make the most out of this simple but powerful document?
Redirecting Your Steps Towards What Is Important. Are You Doing What Matters in Work and Life?
Ask the harder questions. First of yourself. Listen for what comes back. Then take the first step. And if that goes okay, the next step. // If the first or second step fails and you fail, you have the opportunity to learn and reinforce resilience. And the more you get used to falling off the line, the easier it becomes to confront that first step again and again in the things that matter.
Sorry, Nobody Reads Your Blog: Get Over It and Get On With It!
Nobody reads your blog, if you are actually "blogging," you might be doing it for some other reason than business. Of the people that do arrive here, a good portion of them stay around two minutes and visit several pages. The referrals I am hoping for, via my "Work with me" page and free offers, are virtually non-existent.
Early Bird Attack Plan: Try GTD at the Same Time Every Day
Then I started getting up at 6am. On weekdays this usually gave me about an hour of creative time, before I had to start rustling the family and making breakfast. The cool part, was I was always WIDE AWAKE as I was bringing them back into consciousness. I had my wits and plans about me. And for the most part, I had part of my creative drive taken care of for the day.
Time to Come Clean on LinkedIn: Gut Check Your "Trust Network"
I'd love to have a DEEP TRUST NETWORK, or as a friend likes to call it, A 100% Proof Network. Until then, we've got LinkedIn. And you might want to make sure you're still comfortable endorsing, even passively, all the people in your LinkedIn Network.
Plussing or Dividing: How Are You Showing Up in the World?
You are generally either a PLUS or not. And it's more about sentiment and overall approach to life than it is about optimism or negative attitude. It's a life path. And one I think you should pay attention to and perhaps cultivate.
Truth, Transparency, and Trust: Establishing Our Connection
Social media is about transparency. If The Cluetrain Manifesto taught us anything it is that the public will talk about the truth regardless of what the company or person wants the public to talk about. I am engaging in that true talk. And as I say elsewhere, *MY COMMENTS ARE ALWAYS OPEN.*
Improving the Signal-to-Noise Ratio in Life and Social Media
I guess in some ways my signal has also been cleaned by this person's clarification today. I will no longer offer the walks or connections that we used to share. It simply is too painful for them to have me in their lives.
Crazy Little Thing Called Love: If You Can't Say Something Nice… Well, Shout It
Now I am not saying I'm right, or that my techniques and linguistic dexterity is always ON or appropriate. What I am saying, is that if you say something back it up with Passion AND Facts. If you attack, be prepared to meet the social media ninja.
The Fallacy of Just-In-Time Learning: We All Know Everything (Just Google It)
I heard it again today, "We all know everything, right?" The person asking me the question was making a point about trying to encourage businesses to put money into social media marketing. This goes hand in hand with Lewis CK's "Everything is amazing and nobody is happy." So what is going on here?

BlueArc Titan clustered NAS helps put 'Planet 51' into orbit
Ilion Animation Studios turned to BlueArc Titan clustered NAS to handle CIFS, scalability and storage tiering features to help its artists create the animated film "Planet 51."
Creating the animated film "Planet 51" was a seven-year project for Ilion Animation Studios, and putting together a networked storage infrastructure was a big part of that adventure.
The Madrid, Spain-based studio was founded in 2002, and got its first full-length movie into production when "Planet 51" opened last month. Ilion turned to BlueArc Corp.'s Titan clustered network-attached storage (NAS) three years ago as its animators began intense work for the feature.
Ilion Animation Studios had no data storage expertise when its artists began creating "Planet 51," but had specific needs. Chief technology officer Gonzalo Rueda said the studio needed storage that could grow as the project intensified, handle large files, migrate data between tiers of storage and support CIFS because Ilion is a Windows shop.
He said the studio evaluated NAS systems from EMC Corp., Hewlett-Packard (HP) Co. – Ilion uses HP workstations – and NetApp Inc. before picking BlueArc. He said BlueArc was priced better than competitors and built specifically for files. "For vendors that do not live in the NAS storage space, it's more like configuring a SAN [storage-area network] and putting NAS heads in front of it," Rueda said. "BlueArc fulfilled our needs for bandwidth and IOPs. We had one Titan head to start, while other vendors were talking about clustering two and three nodes. I feel the less devices you have in your infrastructure, the less that can break."
Rueda said it also helped that BlueArc's sales and support people had a better understanding of the needs of a media company.
Ilion Animation Studios installed its first Titan head three years ago. "It was a two-phase project," Rueda said. "We're a startup, so our first deployment was a single Titan head with SATA drives; then we upgraded to add a second Titan head with Fibre Channel drives."
The studio didn't have to upgrade as early as anticipated. Rueda said Ilion was up to 160 artists with 200 render nodes before performance started to degrade with a single Titan head and SATA drives. Ilion added the second head and Fibre Channel approximately a year ago, two years after the original purchase. During the final phase of production, Ilion had 90 TB clustered on the Titans and used BlueArc's Data Migrator software to move files between data storage tiers. The Titans supported 300 artists and 300 rendor nodes working around the clock compiling frames.
He estimated Exchange and business data take up less than 1 TB of storage on Ilion's Titans. The rest of the capacity was used for animation.
"We've done some things in brute force ways," Rueda said. "On the storage where we store frames, we have a 50 TB file system with 30 million files shared as one folder. That workflow poses issues, such as backup of a 50 TB file system. And changing permissions in Windows can take hours. We were looking for a way to add not so much more disk, but more clusters to distribute storage and ease infrastructure strain. We wanted to split up our storage and network bandwidth. We do move quite a bit of data around, but when we upgraded to Fibre Channel disk we stopped having bottlenecks."
Ilion takes a two-pronged approach to data backup. It uses a Sun Microsystems Inc. StorageTek LTO-4 tape library for data generated by human artists and backs up computer-generated data to disk.
"If part of the computer-generated data is lost, you can regenerate it," Rueda said, explaining why those files are kept on disk. "The stuff that the artist generated gets backed up to tape, so we can restore it if we have a disk failure. At the peak, we had 10 terabytes and six million files on tape. As for our final frames, that was trickier and backup Windows grew larger. We backed up only sequences as they were finished and closed, then once a month we would do a full backup."
As Ilion Animation Studios moves on to its next project, Rueda said he has one item on his wish list for BlueArc: "I would love to see the ability to shrink file systems, although I don't know if anybody can do that. And anything that tunes performance is always good."

December 9, 2015 - Austin, Texas
Family to Family Network, a Houston, Texas-based nonprofit organization that provides parent support, education and training events on the special educational process and disabilities diagnosis information is partnering with Austin, Texas, based CareStarter Technologies. CareStarter Technologies is a patient centered care technology providing patients and their caregivers access to information at the moment of diagnosis and beyond.
According to the Centers for Disease Control, about 15% of children aged 3 through 17 years have one or more development disabilities. The Developmental Disabilities Assistance and Bill of Rights Act of 2000, defines a developmental disability as a severe chronic disability of an individual that is attributed to a mentor of physical impairment or combination, is manifested by the age 22, likely continues indefinitely, results in substantial functional limitations in three or more life care activities and reflects the individual's need for a combination of services, support or assistance that are lifelong or extended and planned and coordinated.
Both Family to Family Network and CareStarter Technologies are committed to supporting children with a developmental disability diagnosis and their caregivers and families.
"CareStarter is excited for our partnership with Family to Family Network. Both our organizations are committed to providing families with day to day resources and support," said CareStarter Founder and CEO, Lamarque Polvado.
Patient centered care and resources are the heart of what both Family to Family and CareStarter are about.
"When families have information and training – they can make good decisions. When needs are met and supports are obtained, families are healthier, children benefit, and outcomes for young adults with disabilities are optimized. Technologies like CareStarter are key for a family's future success," says Family to Family Network Executive Director, Mary Jane Williams.

A Ranier, MN, witness reports watching and photographing a silent, slow-moving object that hovered for two to three minutes, then "turned in a circle motion" as it moved away, according to July 20, 2011, testimony from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
"We all just were in shock and a bit freaked out, but amazed that it was so close," the reporting witness stated. "I happened to have my phone and was quick to snap just one picture. It seemed like it was almost right over the top of us. And it moved some but not much. It turned in a circle motion as it went up into never never land."
The witness submitted Image # 1 with the MUFON report, which was filed on July 20, 2011. The event occured on July 2, 2011. The above quote was edited for clarity.
Ranier is a city in Koochiching County, MN, population 188.
Minnesota is a current UFO ALERT 5 rating, with a low number of UFO sightings nationally. Minnesota had 8 reports in June 2011 – while California had 42 UFO reports – the highest reporting state in the nation.
You can read more details about other recently reported cases at the UFO Examiner home page. The most up-to-date UFO information can be heard at web radio show UFO Traffic Report every Wednesday, 9 – 10:30 p.m. EST, which includes a UFO Witness Testimony Program segment, and an update of the UFO ALERT national rating system. Past shows are available at the Archive page.
The following is the unedited and as yet uninvestigated report filed with MUFON. Please keep in mind that most UFO reports can be explained as something natural or manmade. If Minnesota MUFON State Director Lorna Hunter investigates and reports back on this case, I will release an update. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.
MN, July 2, 2011 – Out of no where this object just appeared. MUFON Case # 30272.
I was with some friends, we were hanging out at her house on the lake, by Ranier, MN and all of a sudden this object appeared.
It hovered for about 2-3 mins and then gone. didn't hear any sounds as it was super quiet. We all just were in shock and a bit freaked out… but amazed that it was SO close. I happened to have my phone and was quick to snap just one picture. It seemed like it was almost right over the top of us… and it moved some but not much. It turned in a circle motion as it went up into never never land.
This is not the first time I have seen this around this area, but this is the first time i was able to get a picture and the first time it was so close. My first sighting of this was further up the lake, on Rainy Lake. I also know of others that have seen them around here as well, but all stories I have ever heard, they have spotted them on the Lake.

Homemade cashew butter
My favorite spread! Just like with mixed nut butter, I like to eat this best on a rice cake with avocado. I'll also use this cashew butter as a topping for oatmeal or cookies.

It looks like South Padre Island will be home to a wind farm featuring 500-foot tall turbines off the coast.
They'll be 10 miles off the coast, but that doesn't mean everyone's happy about it.
Texas Land Commissioner Jerry Patterson has signed a deal with British firm Baronyx to build the windfarm offshore on land owned by the Texas Permanent School Fund. Baronyx paid a nominal fee for use of the submerged land, but will pay a royalty to the PSF -- which benefits Texas public schools -- on all electricity it produces.
The Valley paper The Monitor reports that there have been complaints about the giant turbines spoiling the view and the environment around South Padre.

"There's a lot more than meets the eye with these projects," Walt Kittelberger, founder of the Laguna Madre Foundation, told the paper.
On the other hand, a Baronyx official makes the hard-to-dispute point that Texas has always had "a working coast," as anyone Galveston visitor can attest.
Up in Massachusetts, Senator Ted Kennedy has famously tried to block a windfarm planned for off the shore of Hyannis.
No word yet on whether some local politico will pick up the NIMBY flag in SPI.

|Safdar Hashmi
12 April 1954 – 2 January 1989
Born on April 12, 1954 in Delhi, Safdar did an M.A. in English Literature from St. Stephen's College, Delhi University, in 1975. During his years at University he became a member of the Students Federation of India and then joined the Indian People's Theatre Association. He was one of the founder members of the Jana Natya Manch (JANAM) in 1973. In 1976 he became a member of the CPI(M).
After brief stints of teaching at Zakir Husain College, Delhi, and the Universities at Srinagar, Garhwal and Srinagar Kashmir, he worked for a period as Press Information Officer at the West Bengal Information Centre at New Delhi.
In December 1983 he became a full-time theatre activist and party worker.
JANAM had by this time acquired national prominence in the cultural sphere with plays such as Machine, Aurat, Gaon Se Shahar Tak, Raja Ka Baja and Hatyare.
Safdar wrote the songs for these plays and contributed greatly to the scripts which dealt with issues concerning the exploited sections of society. Largely due to Safdar's efforts, JANAM has played a major role in the creation of an all-India street theatre movement.
Safdar's creativity was not confined to JANAM. He has written poems and plays and done sketches and masks for children, designed hundreds of posters, written scripts and directed short films for television, and written on culture and theatre for national newspapers and the SFI journal Student Struggle. He was one of the main organisers of the Committee for Communal Harmony and its activities to counter the rise of communal, fundamentalist and divisive forces.
He organised a number of seminars and workshops on theatre and culture. Safdar was developing the idea of nation-wide democratic cultural movement and envisaged the organisation of a 'Janotsav' to generate forms appropriate to the experiences and struggles of the Indian people.
In recognition of his contribution to the street theatre movement and to the growth of a democratic culture, the Calcutta University conferred on Safdar Hashmi the degree of D.Litt. posthumously.
Safdar's political commitment and artistic creativity, coupled with a keen sense of fun and irrepressible friendliness and warmth, made him extremely popular not only among those he had worked with but even those who had met him only briefly. With his death the CPI(M), the Jana Natya Manch, the cultural movement and the democratic and secular forces of the country have lost a beloved friend, a talented artist and a committed political activist.
