arranged in the service of a pretty sweet set of arty prog/folk songs, sung in the purely likable and rich tenor of Matthew Nobile, whose multi-instrument fluency also accounts for much of the band’s timbral richness. The themes on Datura Road’s impressive 2017 self-titled debut are of the kind that always seem to accompany progressive acoustic world-pop: natural imagery and symbolism, mystical suggestion, an optimistic poetry concerned with such trivialities as peace, fulfilling potential and the harmonious relations between living things. What, Nick Lowe still asks daily, is so funny about peace, love and understanding?

Some of them, inexplicably undeterred by the abuse heaped upon Hillary Clinton during her 2016 campaign, are women. Responses to these announcements can often be summarized as: “I don’t have a problem with women running for office; I just have a problem with her.” While the prospect female leadership at high levels of government still seems to strike terror into many Americans, there’s one personality who seems to stand above the fray these days: 85-year-old Supreme Court justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

With some scenes shot on the streets of Newburgh, it focuses primarily on poverty in the Palm Beach County towns of Pahokee and Belle Glade, where his Patterson Family Foundation is active in donating books to needy families. “I was amazed at how terrific the kids were, and how bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, and yet they lived amidst all this poverty and violence. It reminded me of Newburgh,” Patterson told the Poughkeepsie Journal when the documentary was released. “It’s maddening to hear people who don’t really know what it’s like to grow up and live in cities like Newburgh and Pahokee, and don’t understand it. The people who live here are worthwhile human beings. To equate everybody in those towns with the worst element of the towns is just wrong… As I say in the film, I was one of those people.” On a practical level, Patterson and his wife Susan remain activists for literacy. They wrote a children’s book together titled Big Words for Little Geniuses (2017) meant to instill a love of language in youngsters in the digital age. “Getting kids reading is a big thing with me,” Patterson told Hudson Valley Magazine prior to its publication.

A pair of eagles will return to the same nest year after year, building it up with more sticks, grasses and other material until it can measure eight feet deep and five feet in diameter. “Some become very heavy over time, to the point where eventually the tree or limb it’s on will collapse,” Chorvas said, recalling an instance in which a tulip tree with a nest full of eaglets came down during a major storm. (Fortunately, the young eagles were rescued by rehabilitators.) The incubation period is 35 days, with the eaglets making their first flight 10 to 12 weeks later. Bald eagles have a lifespan of 30 years, but typically live in the wild 15 to 25 years.

How the bald eagle made a comeback in New York With bald eagles now a common sight along the river, it’s easy to forget that 50 years ago, the majestic raptor was essentially extirpated from New York State: By 1970, only one active breeding pair remained, and none of the eggs laid by the female successfully hatched, due to the bird’s ingestion of DDT, a pesticide that weakened the eggs’ shells. The bald eagle was listed as Endangered by the state in 1971; the next year, DDT was banned, giving the dwindling population of bald eagles in the Lower 48 a fighting chance. (In 1963, there were just 487 breeding pairs left in those states.) In a last- Erica and Quinn at Tillson Lake in 2012 ditch effort to save the population in New York, between 1978 and 1986 ERICA'S CANCER JOURNEY the DEC acquired eight eaglets from elsewhere (several had been bred in captivity in Maryland) and had them fostered by the single remaining New York pair.

Mount Academy stages student plays this weekend

The Mount Academy in Ulster Park will stage student-created plays over the course of a two-day festival this Friday and Saturday. Three performances of work accomplished by ten high schoolers – all young women participating in the Academy’s Young Playwrights’ and Actors’ Club – focus on the subject of radical transformation. These original works are the culmination of a three-month-long intensive workshop involving the skills of writing, critical thinking and acting. Additionally, three KIDS’ ALMANAC stories from the Bruderhof community archives have been adapted for the stage: one about a Vietnam vet, another about a girl who grew up in Germany during Blaire by Bonticou World War II and a third about a young man who follows his conscience to The newest American Girl doll, brainchild of local author Mississippi and Freedom Summer.
