Fun, food aplenty at St. Jude Italian Festival

STORY:

MONROE — The summery sweet aroma of fresh fried dough coated with melting powdered sugar hung in the air like an invitation.

An invitation to eat.

"I love the fried dough with the sugar on it," said Sonja Macri, of Monroe, as she strolled with her husband, Vinny, through the grounds of St. Jude Roman Catholic Church for the 17th annual St. Jude Italian Festival.

It was opening night Wednesday. The festival at the junction of Routes 110 and 111 is one of the town's major events and continues through Saturday night, offering steaming plates of freshly prepared Italian foods, as well as rides and games.

Macri recommends the cavitelli with broccoli, before taking a shot at the games.
"It's seasoned with garlic and it has olive oil," Macri said, talking about the pasta dish with great admiration.

Food isn't the only attraction. Italian singer Angie Rubino, 76, of Port Chester, N.Y., lulled the crowd with his resonant vocals on Italian songs, some of which appeared to be from long ago.........

STORY:

When they started Lawn Chair Theatre last summer with "Much Ado About Nothing," the folks at the Port Chester Council for the Arts had a plan.

They set up their stage in a clearing between ball fields in Lyon Park and invited theater lovers to bring their own chairs and enjoy a show outdoors.

What they didn't plan on was an opening-night hailstorm that pelted cast, crew and theater lovers with ice pellets the size of golf balls and forced all to clamber to the shelter of the Girl Scout House in a far-off corner of the park.

The show went on the next night, inside the cozy cabin, safe from whatever Mother Nature could send their way.

This year, Lawn Chair Theatre's production of "As You Like It" ..........

08/23/07 - "I didn't want to hurt him. I just wanted him to get out of the way," Maureen Jackson told the Port Chester detective

HEADLINE:

Woman accused of killing ex-boyfriend with car told police he wouldn't get out of the way

STORY:

“I didn't want to hurt him. I just wanted him to get out of the way”
A woman accused of killing her ex-boyfriend by running him over with her car told a detective that she first got angry with the victim when he made her walk four blocks and then more so when he stood in front .........

.........She said she asked Schribman to put her bag in her car and got mad at him when he asked for a ride back to his car. She wouldn't open the passenger door for him, she told the detective.
"I started to pull away and he stood in front of the car," she said, according to the statement. "He wouldn't move so I pressed on the accelerator very gently just to try to get him to move. I nudged him with my front bumper but he stood his ground directly in the middle of the front of my car. I then accelerated harder because I was even more angry now and I wanted to speed away."

She said she "felt a thud after I ran over his body" but she kept going because she wanted to get back to Mount Kisco.

Jackson had worked for the agency that managed the group home and was known to have mental health problems of her own. The housemate she claimed to be dating said in January that they only had a platonic relationship. Another housemate, William Petrovich, told The Journal News that Schribman was trying to stop Jackson from leaving because they were concerned she was depressed. She had promised them she was going to see a psychiatrist the next day and they didn't think she was in any condition to go home by herself, Petrovich said.

08/22/07 - Port Chester-Rye-Rye Brook EMS. They cover 3 muncipalties with fully staffed, ALS ambulances.

HEADLINE:

Why Are We Always Looking For A Bargain With EMS?

STORY:

With the turmoil EMS is in in the Hudson Valley region, it seems more and more elected officials want to seek out the best bargain they can when it comes to providing EMS, meanwhile, the companies that provide it continue to bleed cash and barely stay alive.

So, why is it that these communities are always looking to get a bargain for such a critical, life saving service? I'm sure these same elected officials don't care about how gluttonous some fire departments are, or how much money their DPW is losing them.

Although EMS is the new kid on the block, we stand shoulder to shoulder with Firefighters and Police Officers. Nobody would ever suggest contracting out for Fire or Police or even DPW, yet even get away with doing it.

I blame ourselves. I don't think EMS does anything proactively, like community education as to what we do. Nor do I think EMS makes a good enough case to justify to the elected officials that we're neccasary. I really think some elected officials truly think it's just a ride to the hospital.

Although there are excellent private companies that provide superior EMS, I don't feel EMS should be provided by for-profit companies. I also don't think that "BLS Interfacility Transports" should be considered Emergency Medical Services. All this does is blur the line for us.

Take Yonkers for example. There's no reason why they can't provide EMS that sets an example and a standard, just like their Fire and Police Departments do. Also, look at Port Chester-Rye-Rye Brook EMS. They cover 3 muncipalties with fully staffed, ALS ambulances. They've progressively grown from a volunteer agency to one of the premier, self sufficient, independent agency EMS systems in Westchester County- pehaps the only one.......

08/22/07 - Outside of Kohl's in Port Chester, some customers expressed alarm that the store reportedly still had been selling toys that were recalled

Kylie Clossom and daughter Miranda, 12, outside Kohl's in Port Chester

HEADLINE:

Recalled toys still found at major stores

STORY:

The message that dangerous, recently recalled toys need to be pulled from store shelves apparently didn't get through to some local retailers.

Inspectors from the Westchester Consumer Protection and Health departments visited 20 retailers yesterday and reported that tainted toys still were being sold at four stores in the county: KB Toys on Central Park Avenue in Yonkers, CVS in Peekskill and Kohl's stores in Port Chester and Yonkers.

"These are reputable stores, and they should be getting these items off the shelves," County Executive Andrew Spano said. "They should be aware of this by now. That's what's so astonishing. If it was some mom-and-pop operation, you could excuse it. But these are major stores.".......

08/21/07 - Dominic Carlucci Of Port Chester Writes An Letter To The Editor About How Speed Bikers Pose Danger On Roadways.

Speed bikers pose danger on roadways

On any given day, whether it be Interstates 95, 287, 87 or the parkways, you can be sure you'll see a highway or byway nemesis called the speed bike. The operators (98 percent of them) have very little common sense; whatever they do have between their ears is out to lunch.
There's just too many of these speed bikers on the loose, addicted to speeding and reckless driving habits........

.......I really do hope that local, state and county law enforcement take notice of this serious problem before some very serious accidents occur. And also take note that many of us on the road who take safety seriously are absolutely fed up with these irresponsible motorcyclists who perpetuate the possibility of very serious injury to anyone in their path.

08/21/07 - Port Chester Trustee Dan Brakewood Was Not Notified About Emergency Meeting At The Mayors Office, Because Of Administrative Error.

Conservative Review



HEADLINE:



Trustee Brakewood May Contest Board Of Trustee Resolution And Meeting.



STORY:



Port Chester Trustee Dan Brakewood says that the August 8th Meeting held at the mayors office, at 10 Pearl Steet, was illegal, because he nor the public was not notified of the meeting..



The meeting was for spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on a new attorney for the Brody case. Mr. Brakewood said that this illegal meeting and resolution has the potential of giving the Village Of Port Chester millions of dollars of liability.



Trustee Brakewood, who is a strong open government advocate, said he was particularily upset that this resolution was passed without public input.


Port Chester Village Attorney Anthony Cerreto said he would resarch if the meeting and resolutions were void, because Trustee Brakewood and the public were not properly notified about the meeting.

Mr. And Ms. Abel of the Westmore News was notified 30 minutes, before the meeting occurred, but Port Chester's most influential newspaper the True Blue Conservative Review was not even notified about this meeting.

It is unclear if the Journal news received 30 minutes notice that a meeting was being held in the mayor's office at 10 Pearl Street.
