Jones helps Healthy Families WELLSVILLE– The thoughtful generosity of staff members at Jones Memorial Hospital will make the holidays a little brighter for the families enrolled in Healthy Families of Allegany County. Since Oct. 18, hospital employees have been bringing in non-perishable food items, new toys and clothing for kids, and new blankets, towels, and bedding. Sponsored by the JMH Employee Activities Commit- tee, the effort was successful beyond all expectations! The idea for the Helping Hands for Healthy Families event came from EAC committee member Jeff Ely, Facilities Services Di- rector at Jones. The EAC organized the effort and supplied a prize as an added incentive: $150 in Wellsville Chamber Gift Certificates. Everyone who brought something in for the Healthy Families received a ticket in the drawing. The winning name was drawn by Susan Padden, Pro- gram Director of Healthy Families of Allegany County. The winner was Beth Cooke, RN.

Over the past year we have heard a great deal about collective anger. During the run-up to the midterm elections, the media provided daily reports on the anger of the American electorate, and it would appear that many took their anger to the polls. However, amidst all the expressions of anger, political and otherwise, words of gratitude have been in short supply. Now that the season of thanksgiving is upon us, where shall we find those words? The world’s great spiritual traditions abound in expressions of gratitude, and if you are affiliated with one of those traditions, you may already have all the words you need. If you are not, however, or if you would like to refresh your sense of gratitude, you may wish to explore three practices from the Zen and Vipassana traditions. The first practice concerns the body, which many of us take for granted. If our organs and limbs are functioning normally and caus- ing us no discomfort, we often give them scant attention, sometimes at the expense of our well-being. To counter that tendency, Zen mas- Empire State College ter Thich Nhat Hanh recommends that we sit still, follow our breathing, and silently recite verses such as these: to hold info session Breathing in, I know that I have two good eyes Tuesday, Nov. 30 Breathing out, I feel joy ALFRED--The Alfred Unit of Breathing in, I am aware of my heart Empire State College will offer Breathing out, I am grateful for my heart a free Information Session on Proceeding through the various parts of our bodies, as a doctor Tuesday, November 30, 2010, might, we acknowledge the normal functioning of our lungs, stom- By ELIZA ORDWAY from 5:30 until 7:00 p.m. at the ach, liver, and so on.

THE ALFRED SUN, Thursday, November 25, 2010 9 Lessons learned from Pilgrims’ Thanksgiving By CHIP WOOD Special to the Alfred Sun Did you know that our Pilgrim forefathers tried communism when they first landed at Ply- mouth Rock? How’s that for a dramatic beginning to a story? Years ago, when I used to give a lot of talks to high school classes, this was one of my favorites. It always got the students’ attention. And I have to admit, I also enjoyed seeing some liberal teachers get so upset with me they almost lost their lunches. Here’s the story I told those students in those long-ago pre- sentations. The Pilgrims who arrived at Plymouth Rock in 1620 were in- credibly brave and hardy souls. They were motivated by the no- blest of virtues. They vowed, each and every one, to be as self- less as possible—to always put the needs of the group first. They agreed to own everything in common and to share everything equally. And their naïve piety almost killed the entire colony. We all know how the adventure begins.

It would be the third ever ap- pearance for AU and second straight season for the program to compete n the NCAA's after many ECAC Bowls. Coach Dave Murray's squad won the Empire Eight conference with a perfect league slate and were hosting the undefeated Maritime school despite having a higher seeding, #3 and #6 in the "Mount Union bracket." While it would've been a pain for AU to travel to NYC for this contest, it could've been played anywhere and the winner would be the same! Would be fortunate enough to be doing the game on the radio with "The Voice of the Saxons," Bob Codispoti for the second time in three weeks and second consecutive NCAA tilt. Pretty sure I was providing expert commentary on the first Alfred adventure into the NCAA tournament a number of years ago, beside Cody! Went to the Maritime website when I found out who Alfred would be playing, saw they were 10-0 and Eastern Collegiate Football Conference KANAKADEA Valley Aquatic Club swimmers pose for a photo including (in front) Kaitlyn Cook champs and then checked out their schedule.
