Cairl: Cider with Cops will take place on October 18th at the Fire Station. Check our Facebook page for more information! THE CITY OF NORTHWOOD WISHES TO REMIND MOTORISTS OF THE REGULATION PROHIBITING PARKING DURING PERIODS OF SNOWFALL. This regulation prohibits parking on ALL City streets whenever two inches of snow has fallen and there is a prospect of further snowfall. All vehicles parked on City streets prior to the time weather conditions prohibited parking must be removed by the owner or operators thereof. Any vehicles parked in violation of this prohibition may be removed at the order of the Chief of Police or his or her designee, and may subject the owner or operator to fines as well as any applicable towing charges. The Police Department shall use all available means of disseminating information as to the existence of weather conditions requiring removal of parked motor vehicles from City streets. Such notice shall be disseminated through the radio, newspaper and all available media to the extent feasible. However, the dissemination of this information shall not relieve owners or operators of motor vehicles from the responsibility of ascertaining the existence of weather conditions requiring the removal of parked motor vehicles from City streets. The Blue Warning Lights installed on Wales Road that indicate a blocked R/R crossing are finally operational. The city has installed three warning lights on Wales Road, one at Woodville Road, one at North Drouillard and one at East Broadway and when flashing they indicate the crossing on Wales Road at the LOF Dike tracks which is located between South Drouillard Road and East Broadway is blocked by a train. These warning lights will allow the public to take an alternate route instead of driving all the way down to the crossing to simply find a train blocking the road, thereby saving time as well as frustration over the blocked crossing. A note from the Detectives: People always say, “I leave my doors unlocked because I don’t want them to break my window.” Okay, understood, but answer this question: If you do not leave any valuables in your car (purse, wallet, tablet, phone, computer, prescriptions, money, change and so on), then why would they break the window? If you have to leave something in the car, keep it out of sight; put it in the trunk before you get to the destination. Hide your collected change, maybe leave a few pennies visible, so it looks like that is all you have, and it is not worth the risk. Determined thieves (especially during Christmas, at exercise facilities, and sometimes parks) will still break in. When I go shopping, or walking in the park, I leave nothing in the car and the pass-through seat open, to show my empty trunk. When you get out of the car, nonchalantly, look around and notice your surroundings. If something appears wrong, or suspicious, you can always leave, or call the police, or both. Although it seems like a pain, it can help prevent you from becoming a victim. http://www.ci.northwood.oh.us/ 3 The City of Northwood News Vol. 1 Issue 2 A Note from the Chief of the Northwood Fire Department, Joel Whitmore: In a fire, seconds count. Seconds can mean the difference between residents of our community escaping safely from a fire or having their lives end in tragedy. That’s why this year’s Fire Prevention Week theme: “Every Second Counts: Plan 2 Ways Out!” is so important. It reinforces why everyone needs to have an escape plan. Here’s this year’s key campaign messages: Draw a map of your home and practice with all members of your household, marking two exits from each room and a path to the outside from each exit. Make sure the map also lists the location of the meeting place. The meeting place is often overlooked, but is a very important part of any escape plan. It is also a good idea to make sure any guests that spend the night at your house also know how to get out of the house and know where the meeting place is. Practice your home fire drill twice a year. Conduct one at night and one during the day with everyone in your home, and practice using different ways out. Teach children how to escape on their own in case you can’t help them. Make sure the number of your home is clearly marked and easy for the fire department to find. Close doors behind you as you leave– this may slow the spread of smoke, heat, and fire. FIRE PREVENTION WEEK But if a cow wasn’t to blame for the huge fire, what was? Over the years, journalists and historians have offered plenty of theories. Some President Calvin Coolidge proclaimed the first National Fire Prevention blamed the blaze on a couple of neighborhood boys who were near the Week on October 4th—October 10th, 1925, beginning a tradition of the barn sneaking cigarettes. Others believed that a neighbor of the President of the United States signing a proclamation recognizing the O’Leary’s may have started the fire. Some people have speculated that occasion.

  • Steph Scott ©2014 Adapting Snow White Today
    Steph Scott ©2014 Adapting Snow White Today: Narrative and Gender Analysis in the Television Show Once Upon a Time Abstract: This paper examines the narrative in the first season of the ABC television show Once Upon a Time (2011-Present) and the fairytale Snow White (1857) with a particular focus on female gender representation. The reappearance of fairytales in popular media provides a unique opportunity to examine how values between two very different time periods have changed. Utilizing a narrative approach allows the research to show the merits and limitations across adapting from an old text to a television serial. Once Upon a Time offers a progressive rendition of the character Snow White by challenging both the traditional narrative and the television serial narrative. Snow White’s relationships with other characters are also expanded upon in the televised tale and surround her heroic acts, rather than her beauty, which changes the values presented in the television series. Methodology: In Once Upon a Time, throughout its narrative progression the traditional narrative is challenged. The first season’s episodes “Snow Falls,” “Heart is a Lonely Hunter,” “7:15AM,” “Heart of Darkness,” “The Stable Boy,” “An Apple Red as Blood,” and “A Land Without Magic” are given particular attention in this analysis because they pertain to Snow White’s fairytale. Robert Stam (2005) describes adaptation narrative analysis as considering “the ways in which adaptations add, eliminate, or condense characters” (p.34). With textual analysis of the first season of Once Upon a Time, these factors can be analyzed through Snow White’s relationships with other characters.

  • COLD MOUNTAIN" By
    "COLD MOUNTAIN" by Anthony Minghella Based On The Novel "Cold Mountain" by Charles Frazier EXT. COLD MOUNTAIN TOWN, NORTH CAROLINA. DAY ON A BLACK SCREEN: Credits. A RAUCOUS VOICE (SWIMMER�S) CHANTING IN THE CHEROKEE LANGUAGE. A RANGE OF MOUNTAINS SLOWLY EMERGES: shrouded in a blue mist like a Chinese water color. Below them, close to a small town, YOUNG MEN, armed with vicious sticks and stripped to the waist, come charging in a muscular, steaming pack. Their opponents, also swinging sticks, attach the pack. A ball, barely round, made of leather, emerges, smacked forwards by INMAN, who hurtles after it and collides with a stick swung by SWIMMER, a young and lithe American Indian. Inman falls, clutching his nose. The ball bobbles on the ground in front of him. He grabs it and gets to his feet, the blood pouring from his nose. His team form a phalanx around him and he continues to charge. A PRISTINE CABRIOLET pulled by an impressive horse, comes down towards the town. It has to pass across the temporary field of play, parting the teams. Some of the contestants grab their shirts to restore propriety as the Cabriolet and its two exotic passengers passes by. The driver is a man in his early fifties, dressed in the severe garb of a minister, MONROE. And next to him, a self- conscious girl in the spotless elaborate, architectural skirts of the period, is his daughter, ADA. Inman, using his shirt to staunch his battered nose, looks at Ada, astonished by her. An angel in this wild place.

November is the harbinger of the winter chills and children have dwelt deep within to express themselves in their poems, articles and art. Do appreciate them. WINTER THE ADVENT OF WINTER When the snowy owls arrive, When the snow covers the ground And the woodpeckers unite And not a single blade of grass can be found It's the time everyone's waiting for-“The Winter” It is safe to say That winter has made its way And when the snow falls, The children rush out their houses When the trees are laid bare With their furry jackets to Without a single leaf to spare Play in this wonderful season It is safe to say Some build snowmen, That winter has made its way Some sledge down the snow, some fight with snowballs, When the ants store their grain gold while some just admire the snow And the grasshopper is freezing with cold And when the snow geese fly away to the arctic, It is safe to say It's time to bid farewell to this wonderful season. That winter has made its way - Arjun 7e When the cold wind is blowing And the water is frozen, not flowing It is safe to say That winter has made its way When all's frozen and silent Only the wind is cold and violent It is safe to say That winter has its way And, when the first leaf sprouts And the first squirrel goes out It is safe to say There's going to be a new day -Shrey Gupta (8B) WINTER Winter is turning, With a blanket of snow.
