Students kick off inaugural teleconference via webcam

By Pierce Smith

How do you fit two class-rooms’ worth of students into one? In Cazenovia, a grant from the U.S Depart-ment of Agriculture has led to the introduction of interactive video conferenc-ing equipment for Burton Street Elementary, Green Street Middle School and Cazenovia High School. Monday Nov. 22 marked the first transmission from the elementary school, as

students gathered in the li-brary classroom to peer into the video monitor and com-municate with children in the Tully School District.

Lisa Schaffner’s second graders were the first to use

this new technology. The broadcast began with each class presenting informa-tion about their school. They touched on their class sizes, and physical locations

Dussault graduates Infantry TrainingPrivate Benjamin Dussault,

a 2010 graduate of Cazenovia High School, graduated from Army Infantry Training, Alpha Company 3rd Battalion, 330th Infantry Regiment on oct. 22 at Fort Benning, Ga. Ben earned Qualified Marksman and Eagle Eye with Grenade medals during his training. He is now stationed at Fort Lewis, Wash. Ben is the son of Jackie and Jim McInnis of Cazenovia.

Friedman brings ‘slice of life’ to Nelson OdeonAndy Friedman, a performer,

illustrator and cartoonist, will perform at 8 p.m. Dec. 4 at the Nelson odeon.

“Andy Friedman is not ex-actly one of those musicians you play while you’re paying your bills or cleaning the house,” ac-cording to an NPR segment, “his songs demand that you sit down and listen to them, which is why he is such a hot live act.”

While his songs are any-thing but funny, Friedman has published over a dozen gag car-toons in The New Yorker under the pseudonym Larry Hat. As an award-winning illustrator published under his own name, Friedman’s portraits of cultural figures appear regularly in liter-ally hundreds of magazines and newspapers worldwide, includ-ing recent covers for the New York Times Magazine and The New Republic.

For the last half decade, Friedman has been carving out a name for himself. The Associ-ated Press raved, “Friedman can

write a lyric and deliver it; he is not to be overlooked, that’s for sure.”

Friedman’s “hard-tack coun-try originals” were described in The New Yorker as “the mark of a true artist,” while NoDe-pression.com called his songwriting “un-forgettable.”

“old Crow Medi-cine Show’s” Ketch Secor, in a poem writ-ten about Friedman’s sophomore album, called his record a “certified, genuine

American tune.” Indie-folk icon Sufjan Ste-

vens proclaimed, “I think the world of Andy Friedman. I’ve always wanted to be Andy Fried-man.”

Tickets to Andy Friedman are $12 at the door or may be ordered online at nelsonodeon.com. The Nelson odeon is an intimate venue that offers top-notch viewing in small theatre setting for a wide variety of performing artists.

For more information visit nelsonodeon.com or call 655-9193.

Editorial

OpinionLettersField Hockey team a source of prideTo the editor:

Congratulations to the Cazenovia Field Hockey team on the greatest season in Lakers sports history. The squad’s 1-0 overtime victory over Pierson Bridgehampton for the state title typified the girls’ play through-out the season. From the opening seconds to the dramatic winning goal, the team played with skill, intensity, sportsmanship and unrelenting determi-nation.

The Lady Lakers are, and ought to be, a source of incredible pride for our community. They represent everything that is right about high school sports. These young wom-en are not only remarkable athletes and competitors but hard-working and suc-cessful scholars, dedicated community servants and

admirable leaders and role models. Coach Scheftic, along with her modi-fied and JV staff, deserve our praise for building a program that, from top to bottom, is based on the truest principles of athlet-ics; moral character, team-work and commitment. Their epic demonstration that virtue and success can coexist so effectively is an inspiration to us all.

Thank you, field hockey players and coaches, for bringing such pride and distinction to our school and community.

Chittenango is a wonderful and proud community. The manner in which the Chittenango

The house highlighted in the Nov.17 edition of

this column, pictured at right, is a home as it appears today in

Cazenovia. This nineteenth century structure at 3172 East Road was one of Cazenovia’s first mills. The millstones still remain on adjacent property. As with most settlements, grist mills were the first industry established at Cazenovia, with the first one by John Linklaen in 1794. others followed all along the Chittenango Creek. Typically, the miller would take his payment in the form of flour produced from corn or wheat brought by the farmer. Mills were an essential part of Cazenovia’s economy for much of the 19th century.

This week’s photo, pictured below, tells a different story. If you know the history or significance of this structure, or if you have memories of it, send your information to [email protected] by Dec. 8 for inclusion in the Dec. 15 column. Please specify whether or not you’d like us to include your name.

This column is contributed by members of the Historic and Architectural Resources Inventory team.

Nelson Odeon puts the arts front and center

Nelson has always been known for its agricul-ture and picturesque views. But the work of the Schoenfeld family and the Nelson odeon have been putting Nelson on the map for something a little more glamorous: entertainment.

Since last spring, the reopened historic Nelson grange building at 4035 Nelson Rd., three miles east of Cazenovia, has hosted several musical acts, from Little Toby Walker to Beaucoup Blue to Billy Eli, among others.

Jeff and Linda Schoenfeld purchased the historic Nelson Grange Building a year ago, in November of 2009. Together, and with some help, the Schoenfelds spent last winter renovating to convert the inner structure to the Nelson odeon. Their plan was to create a community minded center for musicians, artists, receptions, practices and concerts.

Along with promoting local music from across upstate New York, one of the odeon’s missions is to bring small, well-respected national acts to the Central New York area to play for music lovers and music discoverers alike.

Now, the Nelson odeon is becoming more and more well known across Central New York; you can’t go to a bookstore or restaurant near Eagle’s Syracuse office without seeing a Nelson odeon flier in the window.

The old grange hall had a stage installed many years ago, complete with footlights and curtains. Going unused for decades, the Schoenfelds have breathed new life into the Nelson odeon so that performers can take the stage and entertain audi-ences again as it was intended.

This week’s artist, Andy Friedman, is sure to attract a crowd. With fans as varied as the New Yorker and popular musician Sufjan Stevens, it’s definitely going to be a show worth watching.

We’ll see you there!

It was a busy Thanksgiv-ing travel week for many of our players but 28 still showed up to fill 7 tables at our duplicate game on Nov. 23. Penny Emerick and Dave Bull continued their hot streak and took home overall and East/West honors. Barbara and Chuck Stine also had a very good game and won the North/South side followed by Jean

and Bill Young in second and Polly and Jack Koener in third place. Jane Fuller and Carl Bjork just nipped Alice Angelo and Ellie Lud-wig for second, E/W with Barbara and Sam Roller coming in fourth.

The group meets at 1 p.m. Tuesdays at the Cazenovia Public Library, usually in the community room. All games are open to the public, but we ask players to come with their

own partners.The skill levels of our

players vary considerably.

Dave Bull is volunteer publicist for the Cazenovia Bridge Club.

In history

Week of Dec. 1125 Years Ago

December 3, 1885 – Bright red stockings are condemned by New York physicians as dangerous. They contain arsenic and antimony.

What has become of the electric light we talked of having a few months ago?

100 Years AgoDecember 1, 1910 – A

handsome set of Encyclo-paedia Britannica, consist-ing of the ninth and tenth editions, 35 vols., has been presented to the Public Library by Mr. Walter Goodman Chard. This is a gift that is not only appre-ciated by the trustees and librarian, but the whole public as well. The interest taken in the library during the past year, by many Cazenovians and outside residents, is truly flattering and shows the great value the library is to the town.

Friday evening, De-cember 9, will appear the second attraction of the Union School Enter-tainment Course. The Tyrolean singers and yodlers will be with us with their native musical instruments. They present a charming combina-tion of the picturesque and romantic in music. They appear in the unique national costume of their

people the most attractive in all Europe.

50 Years AgoDecember 1, 1960

– Mothers beware! Make sure the paper boy you pay is the right one! Ap-parently some person, or persons, has been going around the village collect-ing paper money. Then when the paper boy asks for his money he is told that it has already been paid. The kids margin of profit is not large and it doesn’t take too much for him to be operating at a loss. So, ladies, don’t pay just anyone who comes by.

Continuing its quest for a “good” sign ordinance the Village has scheduled an open meeting for Fri-day, Dec, 9.

The Golden fam-ily observed its fiftieth anniversary of business in Cazenovia last week. The family has operated a restaurant at the same location, 56 Albany St. since November 24, 1910. Previous to that date, V.F. Golden, father of Maurice and Terrence (present owners) of the Golden Pheasant operated a cigar factory at the site of the present Atlantic States Gas Station on lower Albany St.

SchoolsNHS inducts 31 new members

By Alice BorningNHS Advisor

The owahgena Chapter of the

National Honor Society at Cazenovia High School inducted 31 new mem-bers Thursday Nov. 18.

The members were selected by the faculty council after each student was evaluated on the following criteria: scholarship, leadership, service and character. For the aspect of scholar-ship, the students had to have a mini-mum grade point average of 3.5.

Leadership is defined by many different qualities, some of which in-clude: being resourceful in proposing new problems, applying principles, and making suggestions; demonstrat-ing initiative in promoting school ac-tivities; exercising positive influence on peers in upholding school ideals; and exemplifying a positive attitude.

Service is defined by a student’s willingness to volunteer and charac-ter is demonstrated by the following six qualities: respect, responsibility, trustworthiness, fairness, caring and citizenship.

The NHS advisers this year are Alice Borning and Tom Murlin. They were joined on stage by Cazenovia High School Principal Eric Schnabl as well as the current NHS members, led by their president, Chris Giardina.

The evening’s special guest speaker was Dr. Frederick Koennecke, who spoke of his past experiences as a member of the Qwahgena Chapter of NHS. He spoke of co-members with widely different interests and talents, but who shared the traits of scholar-ship, leadership, service, and char-acter to high degrees. Keeping these characteristics strong and developing them even more should now be the personal goals of all the former and newly selected members.

The Chamber Choir, directed by Teresa Campbell provided both a seri-ous piece, “o Bone Jesu,” by Palestrina at the start and a more light-hearted piece, “Linus and Lucy,” by Vince Guaraldi at the close of the ceremony. Guests and ceremony participants were treated to a dessert reception in the cafeteria. The decadent desserts and hors d’oeuvres were prepared by Mrs. Kellstrand’s and Ms. Beyer’s foods classes and served by NHS members with the help of Mandi Mil-len and Kristin Reichert.

The new members this year are: Emily Clipston, Crozer Connor, Lu-cas Dorsey, Kelly Dougherty, olivia Eilers, Laura Fitch, Sarah Rose Gabor, Piper Gianforte, Matthew Henderson, Douglas Hoagland, Jeffrey Hopsicker, Molly Hudson, Meghan Karmis, Ben-jamin Langey, Chelsea Lauria, Jona-than Lyga, Patrick Marris, Caroline

Marshall, Emily Mastropaolo, Chel-sea Perkins, Brodie Shephard, Noah Shephard, Darian Smith, Benjamin Spangler, Emmajean Speer, Ashley Stec, Brandon Swart, Rae Tobey, Keenan Underriner and Augustus Whitaker.

Each student was individually and eloquently introduced by a current NHS member. Now they will serve as role models for the school. Honor comes to those who behave in an honorable manner.

This year the induction ceremony had a conflict since a dozen current or new members would be involved at a state banquet for Women’s Field Hockey, our state champions. They were torn between two wonderful events. To make everything work, our induction ceremony made a slight compromise. The ceremony was conducted as planned, but the new members who were absent were honored as their parents came to the stage, lit a candle, and accepted the certificate of membership in NHS in their student’s place.

This was a very touching moment for each of the parents and for us who witnessed it.

The absent inductees were given full honors again at the abbreviated ceremony held at 3 p.m. Tuesday Nov. 30.

Re-gift, Re-use, Re-loveProject CAFÉ’s Third Annual Toy Shop

Submitted by Taylor Malmsheimer

The holiday season is approaching and it’s time for Project CAFÉ’s annual Toy Shop.

This year Project CAFÉ is hosting its third annual Toy Shop from 9 a.m. to noon Saturday Dec. 11 at Burton Street Elementary School. The Toy Shop has come to be an extremely successful holiday tradition. Project CAFÉ members collect gently used toys and clean the toys, package them, and replace missing batteries. Then the toys are sold for

minimal prices during the Toy Shop. Last year Project CAFÉ collected 1,421 toys, 625 books, and raffled off an American Girl Doll, wood-en block set and remote control ATV. Project CAFÉ made a profit of $500, all of which was donated to the bone marrow registry to help those with leukemia and other illnesses. Any remaining toys or books were donated around the local communities.

This year, Project CAFÉ members hope to continue their tradition of a fun and rewarding Toy Shop.

But to do that, they need help. Without donations of toys and books from com-munity members, the Toy Shop will not be a success. Community members are invited to drop off gently

used toys or wrapping paper in any of the collec-tion boxes around town. Collection sites include Project CAFÉ at Dave’s Diner, St. James Church, the First Presbyterian Church, the Dewitt Com-munity Church, the New Woodstock Library, and the Cazenovia elementary, middle, and high schools. Monetary donations are also appreciated to help buy batteries, and cleaning and wrapping supplies.

Donations can be sent to the Project CAFÉ office at Po Box 408, Cazenovia, NY, 13035. Any high school team or club is welcome to sign up for a night to clean toys. If interested, e-mail [email protected]. Get in the holi-day spirit early by donating

your gently used toys to a child whose holiday season will be brightened by your generosity!

Project CAFÉ would like to thank all of the people and organizations who have helped to make the Toy Shop possible: the Caze-novia Republican for great publicity, Dave’s Diner for their accommodations and the use of their dishwasher, Wil Kox Paper/the Sparks Family for donating boxes, schools and churches that are hosting boxes for col-lection, Harris Cleaners for washing and drying stuffed animals, Mrs. Connor for playing the piano at the Toy Shop, and Mrs. Romagnoli for restoring dolls.

Taylor Malmsheimer is a student member of Project CAFÉ.

Cazenovia Public Library news

Film series continues at libraryTo commemorate the

birthday of Walt Disney (Dec. 5, 1901), the docu-mentary “Waking Sleeping Beauty” will be shown at 2 and 7 p.m. Wednesday Dec. 8 in the Cazenovia Public Library Community Room.

“During a 43-year Hol-lywood career, Walt Disney established himself and his product as a genuine part of Americana. A pioneer and innovator, and the pos-sessor of one of the most fertile imaginations the world has ever known, Walt Disney, along with mem-bers of his staff, received more than 950 honors and citations from every nation in the world, including 48 Academy Awards and seven Emmys. Through his work, Walt Disney brought joy, happiness, and a universal means of communication to the people of every nation. He died on Dec. 15, 1966,” according to Disney.

“By the mid-1980s, how-ever, the fabled animation studios of Walt Disney had fallen on hard times. The artists were polarized be-tween newcomers hungry to innovate and old timers not yet ready to relinquish control. These conditions produced a series of box-of-

fice flops along with a pessi-mistic forecast that perhaps the best days of animation were over.

“only a miracle, or a magic spell, could produce a happy ending. In ‘Wak-ing Sleeping Beauty,’ the true story of how Disney regained its magic is told. The result was a stagger-ing output of hits during a ten-year period — ‘Little Mermaid,’ ‘Beauty and the Beast,’ ‘Aladdin,’ ‘The Lion King’ and more.”

“Waking Sleeping Beau-ty,” a fascinating story of the rise and fall of an entertain-ment empire, is rated PG and runs for 86 minutes.

Wide screen, surround sound, comfortable seat-ing and free popcorn are all part of the theater ex-perience at the Cazenovia Public Library where all events are free and open to the public.

And don’t forget that free transportation through CRIS-CAT is now provided for Cazenovia, Fenner, and Nelson residents over 55 and ambulatory. Just call 655-0612 between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m. three to five days in advance.

For more information, call 655-9322 or visit caze-noviapubliclibrary.org.

Garden Club members prep for annual plant sale

The members of the Cazenovia Garden Club are busily preparing for the annual Holiday Plant Sale.

This year’s event will be held from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday Dec. 4 in the Community Room of the Caze-novia Public Library. Featured at the sale will be tra-ditional favorites to include wreaths, boxwood trees, holly, kissing balls, cedar garland, paper white bulbs, cyclamen and poinsettias in many sizes and colors - perfect for holiday gift giving and decorating.

Shopping at this event is an opportunity to support the Garden Club’s many community service projects. Proceeds will enable the Cazenovia Garden Club to continue its village beautification efforts to include plantings and decorations for the village of Cazenovia throughout the year.

New Woodstock Free Library news

Library honors volunteers, invites local author An exhibit of Cazenovia

School District student art opens Dec. 4 as the New Woodstock Free Library honors the more than 25 volunteers who regularly work at the library each week throughout the year.

A reception for the stu-dent artists and the volun-teers will be held from 10 to noon Dec. 4, with refresh-ments, children’s crafts, a brief ceremony to recount the year’s achievements and a first look at the children’s art exhibit which will run through Jan. 31. The public is invited to attend, meet the artists, and thank the vol-unteers for their efforts.

Adding to the day’s at-tractions will be a book signing by local author Jennifer Fura, with copies of her touching and important book “Scotty’s Way” avail-able for purchase. The book is about her son, who at two years old lost his arm in an accident. The indomitable Scotty and his mom will talk with visitors about the challenges the family has faced and how Scotty proves that “anything is possible.”

The event will also fea-ture Syracuse Symphony orchestra violinist Heather

Fais, who will grace the event with her music and charm. Fais is the daughter of William and Marilyn Fais of New Woodstock.

Librarian Norm Parry says volunteers have sus-tained and supported the library for more than seven decades.

“We have an extraordi-nary group of people who give their time and skills to

make the library what it is,” Parry said. “We could never thank them enough, but we designate one day a year to recognize the essential role they play in the library’s success. We invite everyone who visits the library to stop by Dec. 4 and express their thanks.”

The New Woodstock Free Library is open 1 to 5 p.m. Monday through

Friday, 7 to 9 p.m. Monday and Wednesday evenings and from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturdays. The library is also open whenever the blue flag is flying out front. Children’s hour is at 11 a.m. every Tuesday. The library phone number is 662-3134. For more information, visit midyork.org/newwood-stock.

Syracuse Symphony Orchestra violinist Heather Fais will perform at the New Woodstock Free Library Dec. 4.

SportsCaz field hockey wins first-ever state championship

Before the season start-ed, Jillian Vogl and her Ca-zenovia field hockey team-mates made it clear what their field hockey goal was for the upcoming year.

“From day one in pre-season we have goal cards and everyone wrote “Win state championship,” Vogl said.

The Lakers fulfilled their season-long objective as Vogl knocked in the win-ning goal in overtime to help Cazenovia win its first-ever Class C state champi-onship (and the first by any Cazenovia team, period) with a dramatic 1-0 win over Pierson/Bridgehamp-ton on Nov. 20 at Cicero-North Syracuse’s Bragman Stadium.

After Vogl’s thrilling game-winner, a frenzied celebration scene followed. Vogl jumped into the out-stretched arms of senior Tori Widrick before team-

mates piled on top of them at the 10-yard line.

“Tori was the first per-son I saw,” Vogl said. “I was like “oh my gosh!”

Cazenovia’s potent at-tack was held at bay for most of the game thanks to the outstanding play of Pierson goalie Catherine Musnicki. But Vogl finally broke through with the winning goal at the five- minute mark in sudden death.

“EmmaJean (Speer) re-versed hit it and I just saw it

out of the corner of my eye,” Vogl said. “I just hit it and closed my eyes and hoped for the best.”

Vogl finished with 21 goals for the year but none were bigger than her state championship game-win-ner. But the modest Vogl downplayed the signifi-cance of being the team hero.

“It was amazing (to score the game-winner),” Vogl said. “But we won as a team. Everyone’s effort helps.”

Defender Ellen Burr

said the overtime win for the state crown was a per-fect Hollywood ending to the Laker season. It was Cazenovia’s 15th shutout of the year.

“You see all these sports movies and you think “Why do they feel so good about winning?” Burr said. “But it’s all that and more. This was out last game ever and we left in on the field. It was so emotional.”

Coming into the final, Cazenovia outscored op-

THE ULTIMATE PRIZE: Cazenovia’s field hockey team holds the state Class C championship plaque after beating Pierson/Bridgehampton 1-0 in overtime on Nov. 20. It’s the first team state title in the school’s history.

Sportsponents 21-3 in six playoff games, but it was unable to solve the Whalers until Vo-gl’s goal. The highly-skilled Lakers were relentless on attack but the Whalers kept thwarting every chal-lenge. The Lakers outshot the Whalers 18-0 in the first half.

Cazenovia’s defense, led by Burr, Raeanne Clabeaux, SarahRose Gabor, Molly Hudson and goalie Emily Mastropaolo, held its own in crucial situations includ-ing three penalty corners by Pierson with under a minute to play in the regu-lation.

A day earlier, in the state semifinals against Briarcliff Manor (Section I), the Lak-ers had little trouble, speed-ing its way to a 4-0 victory over the Bears.

Cazenovia came into the state semifinal as the most prolific offensive team in Section III history. The Lakers (19-2) set a Section III record for most goals in a season as its 103 goals so far in 2010 eclipsed Rome Free Academy’s record of 92 goals in 1994.

Vogl got the offense cranking early with an unassisted goal at the 25:08 mark. She added another marker eight minutes later, also unassisted. Cazenovia, the five-time defending sectional champs, averaged 4.9 goals per game before Friday.

Widrick continued the offensive onslaught with a high blast into the box for the Lakers third goal.

Widrick said good commu-nication keeps her offense clicking.

“It’s chemistry, one, and second it’s communica-tion,” Widrick said. “Com-munication out there on the field is huge. We talk out there.”

“It’s almost like telepa-thy,” said head coach Lor-raine Scheftic. “They know where each other are. Ev-eryone just really stepped up.”

The Lakers tacked on a third goal at 13:30 in the second half. Abby Eschen tipped in a ball off the stick of Widrick for a 3-0 lead. Widrick capped off the scoring with a bullet into the box with 3:15 remain-ing.

Cazenovia dominated Briarcliff in shots (21-2) and penalty corners (13-3). The Lakers’ defense also contained the Bears top scorer, Melissa Colton, who came into the game with 23 goals.

one day later, it proved a lot closer – but Cazenovia still made history.

Burr was selected to the state all-tournament team, as was Widrick and Vogl. Belle Hoagland received the state sportsmanship award. The Lakers finished the year at 21-2 and will start the 2011 season with a seven-game win streak to go with their 59-game oHSL win streak.

Lakers nab state title after long climb to top

It was a celebration five

years – or more – in the making.

When Jillian Vogl’s shot found the net in overtime on Nov. 20 at Cicero-North Syracuse’s Bragman Sta-dium, the Cazenovia field hockey team had achieved the first state championship by any Laker team in the school’s history.

Yet this was far from an overnight success story. Four straight times, the Lakers had gone into the state tournament, only to get eliminated long before the championship round.

Breaking that spell re-quired the same traits that all championship teams carry – a fair amount of talent, for sure, but also a larger amount of leader-ship and, whenever it was needed, an ability to make the big plays.

Not too long ago, just winning a Section III ti-tle was a big accomplish-ment. In both 2004 and 2005, head coach Lorraine Scheftic’s Lakers made it to the finals, only to get beat, and followers wondered if the breakthrough would ever take place.

Then came 2006, when the Lakers trailed Hol-land Patent in the closing seconds of regulation in the Class B finals on the same Bragman Stadium turf where greater glory would be achieved four years later.

But the Lakers got a goal to force overtime against the Golden Knights, then won in that extra period 3-2 to finally claim the sectional banner. Great as that was, though, a different kind of frustration would soon set in.

Starting in ’06, and con-tinuing through the next three years, the pattern would repeat itself. Each time, Cazenovia would blaze to a Section III title (it moved from Class B to

C in 2007) – and each time, it would lose in the regional playoffs. That included a 7-0 defeat to Marathon in ’08 and a 4-0 loss to those same olympians in ’09.

This was the background

for Cazenovia going into 2010, who figured that if a regional title, or even a state title, was ever going to hap-pen, now was the time.

Up front, the Lakers

A New Year, A New You

Planning is key to keeping New Year’s resolutions

Resolution ideas to consider for the new yearEach and every New Year’s Day, millions of people

across the globe resolve to make positiive changes in their life. Known as New Year’s resolutions, these ideas or commitments can fall by the wayside or prove to be a positive life-changing experience. Some of the more popular resolution ideas include the following:3 Losing weight3 Saving more and spending less3 Visit a foreign country3 Volunteer to help the less fortunate3 Start (or finish) writing that novel3 Quit smoking tobacco3 Be more environmentally-friendly3 Reduce stress3 Spend more time with the familyMany parents choose to spend more time with their

family as their New Year’s resolution each year.

Most people have made New Year’s resolutions at some point in their lives -- with varying degrees of success. The secret to making -- and keeping -- a New Year’s resolution is to start think-ing about it before New Year’s Eve.Be realistic

The surest way to fall short of your goal is for it to be unrealistic. Resolving to never eat your favorite

food again is a set-up for failure. Set a goal that is attainable, such as avoid-ing that food more often than you do now. If your resolution is something like losing weight, do some research to see what a realistic, attainable goal would be.Choose wisely

Don’t decide on a resolution at the last minute on New Year’s Eve.

It may help to make a list of possible resolutions and develop this list over time. Keep it with you and ask oth-ers to contribute ideas. You should know what your goal is well before December 31st arrives.Create a plan

To be successful, it helps to have clear steps to put into action. Write

A champagne toast fit for a festive New Year’s Eve

Champagne is as much a part of New Year’s celebrations as countdowns and the ball dropping in Times Square. Those hosting a New Year’s party this year might want to consider the following recipe for “Champagne Punch” from A.J. Rathbun’s “Good Spirits” (Harvard Common Press).Champagne Punch

Serves 106 ounces freshly squeezed orange juice4 ounce simple syrup (see below)2 ounces freshly squeezed lime juice2 ounces freshly squeezed lemon juice6 ounces white rum6 ounces dark rum1 25 fluid ounce bottle of champagneOrange, lime and lemon slice for garnishIce (in block form of possible; if not, large chunks)1. Add the ice to a large punch bowl. If using chunks

(as opposed to a large block of ice), fill the bowl just under halfway.

2. Add the orange juice, simple syrup, lime juice, and lemon juice. With a large spoon or ladle, stir 10 times.

3. Add the light and dark rums. Stir 10 more times.4. Add the champagne, but not too quickly. Enjoy the mo-

ment. Add a goodly amount of orange, lime and lemon slices. Stir, but only once.

5. Ladle into punch glasses or festive goblets. Try to ensure that every guest gets a slice of fruit and a smile.Simple Syrup

Makes 41/2 cups21/2 cups water3 cups sugar1. Add the water and sugar to a medium-size saucepan.

Stirring occasionally, bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Lower the heat a bit, keeping the mixture at a low boil for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

2. Turn off the heat, and let the syrup cool completely in the pan. Store in a clean, airtight container in the refrigerator.

‘Winter blues’ might be something more serious

The arrival of the New Year brings with it many things besides just a turn of the calendar. A time for reflection, resolutions and looking forward, the New Year represents a clean slate, one many will welcome after a rather tumultuous 2009.

Another image the New Year invokes is that of winter weather, replete with its short days and snow-storms. While the official arrival of winter is 10 days before the turn of the calendar, for many the unofficial start of the coldest season is when the holiday season ends and the new calendar year begins.

Though winter has its afficionados, for many people winter can be a difficult time of year, one characterized by feelings of depression and indifference. For those who find themselves with those feelings each year, the cause could be a condition known as Seasonal Affec-tive Disorder (SAD), which most commonly begins to occur during late fall, extending into the winter months. In fact, many simply assume the symptoms of SAD are the “winter blues,” a common misconception that could be masking a larger issue. However, under-standing and recognizing SAD could be the first step for those looking to have a more enjoyable winter.What is SAD?

SAD is a type of depression that is cyclic, affecting a

Commonly perceived as “winter blues,” Seasonal Affective Disorder is a serious condition that can cause feelings of depression throughout a given season.

A New Year...A New You

Opinion

Resolve to be involvedAs 2010 comes to a close, and the confetti and

streamers are swept up, the hangovers are medicated and the calendars are thrown away, many Central New York-ers will look ahead to 2011 and make a resolution.

That resolution may be something tangible, like quit-ting smoking, getting more organized or losing weight. Or it might go deeper, like being kinder, making new friends or taking up a new hobby.

If you are looking for a way to improve your life and the lives of those around you, why not resolve to become involved in your community?

Volunteer at or donate to a local organization, whether it be one that helps people in crisis, such as Vera House or the Rescue Mission, or one which helps children or the needy, such as Meals on Wheels, the local food pantry or a hospital’s pediatric ward. Or become a mentor or a Big Brother/Big Sister to a child who could use a helping hand or someone to look up to, someone to lend support when needed.

Some web sites to help you get started helping others include volunteermatch.org and oasisnet.org, or use the “Volunteer Syracuse” search engine.

Become involved in the government which shapes our towns and villages. Attend local board meetings or volunteer for civic organizations or municipal commit-tees. Reach out to your neighbors, perhaps by starting a homeowners’ group, a neighborhood watch or some-thing as simple as a local book, pitch or bridge club.

Giving of yourself by getting involved in your com-munity is a way to keep the holiday cheer going through-out the year.

person during the same season each year. The symptoms of SAD will arrive and go away at the same time each year. As mentioned earlier, the majority of people who suffer from SAD will begin to experience symptoms in late fall, and those symptoms will continue through the winter months.What are the Symptoms of SAD?

Symptoms of SAD often start out mildly and become more severe as the season progresses. Those symptoms can include:

* Feelings of sadness* Anxiety* Withdrawal from social activities and situations* Loss of interest in usual activities* Feelings of hopelessness* Oversleeping* Weight gain* Difficulty concentrating* Craving of carbohydrates, such as bread and pastaWhile SAD is most common in late fall and early

winter, it can also occur in spring and summer. This is called summer-onset seasonal affective disorder. Symp-toms of this type of SAD are, in some cases, the opposite of winter seasonal affective disorder.

* Irritability* Insomnia* Weight loss* Poor appetite

What Causes SAD?It is still uncertain as to the specific causes of SAD.

Experts, however, have theorized that lack of sunlight might be a contributing factor.

A reduction in sunlight can cause a drop in serotonin, a neurotransmitter in the brain that influences mood,

appetite, sleep, and a host of other behaviors. An imbal-ance in serotonin is believed to influence mood in a way that leads to depression.

That lends credence to the theory that a lack of sun-light and its subsequent depletion of serotonin could be a cause of SAD.

Changes in season can also disrupt the balance of melatonin, a natural hormone that plays a role in sleep patterns and mood.What are Risk Factors for SAD?

According to the Mayo Clinic, there are a handful of factors that may increase a person’s risk of SAD. Those include, but are not limited to:

* Gender. Studies have shown that SAD is more com-monly diagnosed among women than men. However, the same research has indicated that men often have more severe symptoms.

* Geography. Where a person lives is also a risk fac-tor for SAD. The further a person lives from the equa-tor, be it north or south, the higher the risk factor for developing SAD.

That’s likely due to the harsh decrease in sunlight dur-ing the winter months in areas far from the equator.

* Family history. In general, depression tends to run in families. Because SAD is a type of depression, family history can also be a risk factor.Are Treatment Options Available?

First and foremost, persons suspecting they or a loved one are suffering from SAD should consult a physician and get a diagnosis.

Those who are diagnosed with SAD do have treat-ment options available to them, including light therapy and medications.

your resolution and plan down in a notebook or journal. Decide how you will deal with the temptation to backslide. This could include calling a friend for support, taking a walk around the block or simply thinking positively. Start your plan during the first few days of January to harness your motivation. Don’t expect overnight miracles.

Resolutions are accomplished with a hundred tiny steps that happen throughout the year. You should think of a New Year’s resolution as nothing more than a starting point and that developing positive habits will keep your plan moving forward.Talk about it

Tell friends and family members who will be there to support your resolve to change yourself for the better. The best-case scenario is to find a friend or family member

who has also made a New Year’s resolution and agree to motivate each other.Remain flexible

Obsessing over the occasional slip won’t help you achieve your goal. Do the best you can each day and keep moving forward.

Expect that your plan can and will change. Some-times even the goal itself will change. But most impor-tantly, recognize partial successes at every step along the way.

Experts say it takes about 21 days for a new activity, such as exercising, to become a habit, and six months for it to become part of your personality. Give it time and your new habits are sure to become second na-ture.

Hematology Oncology Associates (HOA) offers our patients a wide variety of treatments. These range from standard of care treat-ments, which have been proven effective, to a variety of clinical trials in which investigational medications are given with or compared to a standard of care to aid in the discovery of future cancer therapies.

Currently, we are ac-cruing patients to over 80 different studies primarily through research adminis-tered by the National Can-cer Institute. For over 24 years, HOA has been the re-cipient of a grant called the Community Clinical On-cology Program (CCOP) that aims to provide cutting edge research opportunities to communities throughout the nation. To compliment what is available through CCOP, we also participate in a few studies with phar-maceutical companies. Ad-ditionally, we have authored and initiated several studies ourselves. Our participa-tion and initiative in oncol-ogy research has garnered national attention and sev-eral awards for excellence. To our surprise, word of our outstanding research pro-gram has recently reached around the globe.

Yair Dotan is much like any of our other patients who participate in research. He comes in for doctor’s ap-pointments, meets with his research team, and receives an experimental drug for prostate cancer. However, unlike many of our patients,

Dotan travels from Tel-Aviv, Israel, to our office in East Syracuse to participate in a trail sponsored by Cougar Biotechnology, Inc. called COU-AA-302.

After trying conven-tional treatments in Israel without success, Dotan de-cided to actively help his doctors find another treat-ment for his progressive disease. It was through the website, clinicaltrials.gov, that he discovered the Cou-gar study, as well as facilities that were participating in this research. Through the website, he was able to con-tact the director of the study who suggested several clin-ics where this research was being conducted.

Dotan’s first choice was to go to an oncology center at UCLA in Los Angeles, California. He was also considering hematology/ oncology centers in At-lanta, Georgia, as well as Syracuse. Unfortunately, he discovered there would be a significant delay in meeting with doctors and researchers at UCLA. This wait meant a delay in treat-ment that Dolan felt was unacceptable. After several

emails and lengthy phone conversations across the ocean with Colleen Ducha-no, our research RN, Dotan chose our very own Hema-tology Oncology Associates of Central New York. This was an easy choice as Dotan was able to meet with Dr. Gullo and begin the process of study treatment within one week of his initial con-tact with HOA.

As an international pa-tient who is thrilled with his care here at HOA, Dotan has some advice to share with all of us: “Be happy and optimistic,” and always “be a part of your own care.” Dotan shares that he is not frightened by his disease—rather he makes the most out of every day and takes it all in stride. He feels optimistic, fortunate and grateful as he is love and supported by his devoted wife, family and friends. He considers HOA a signifi-cant part of his life now and states we will forever have a place in his heart. Likewise, this courageous, gracious man and his family have touched us as we engage in his fight against cancer with and for him.

an appointment that’s con-venient.”

There is also a pond area on the Springside prop-erty. Local organizations recently installed a fishing deck at the pond.

“There are fish in the pond, so it’s great to just go over and drop a line right here on the property,” said Wood. “I like doing things outdoors.”

The Council has also helped inspire many en-hancements on the prop-erty including a walking garden complete with many attractive plantings, and a fountain that was recently installed. “It’s just so beau-tiful and peaceful,” said Abel.

“It’s great to have the input from the Council,” said Ferlito. “They are able to give suggestions and help communicate on behalf of the residents.”

The newest landscaping

was recently completed to make a park-like setting in front of the building mak-ing Springside’s entrance much more attractive.

The Council meets eight or nine times each year, with most of the meetings strategically held to coin-cide with event planning for one of Springside’s major events or a holiday.

“As co-chairpersons for the Council, I have ap-preciated the leadership that Wood and Abel have provided for this close-knit community,” said Ferlito. “They listen to the other residents and if there are concerns they are willing to help solve them.”

Seneca Federal an important part of the CNY communitySeneca Federal Savings

and Loan Association, founded in 1928, has been supporting the Central New York community in many ways since it was founded.

“We’re fortunate to have the resources to provide not only financial support, but also the human resources required by charitable and civic organizations to carry out their most necessary work,” said Katrina Russo, president – CEO. “Wheth-

er it’s scholarship funds, ‘Celebrate Baldwinsville,’ replacement of holiday decorations destroyed by vandals, financial support of such organizations as the volunteer fire depart-ments, youth sports, the Baldwinsville 100-year-old Lock celebration, Syracuse Home, or YMCA, our com-munities have always been able to count on Seneca Federal,” said Anna Custer, senior vice president.

Custer is a past president of the Seneca Federal is currently a member of the Baldwinsville Chamber of Commerce. Custer is a past president of the chamber, as well as a board member of the Baldwinsville Com-munity Scholarship Foun-dation, Inc. and head of the student loan nursing fund for The Female Charitable Society.

There are several other employees who similarly

serve the CNY community in similar capacities. Lisa Hetko, branch manager, has recently joined the North Syracuse Chamber of Com-merce and coordinates events such as the Making Strides against Breast Can-cer walk, which Seneca Fed-eral employees took part in again this year. She also spearheads the Costume for a Cause fundraiser at the Association.

“This annual event takes place around Halloween and raises monetary and other applicable donations for a local cause,” Hetko said.

“We’re also proud of the financial services we provide to the Central New York community,” Russo said. “We want to active-

ly participate in assisting households who have fallen victim to the sub-prime and adjustable rate mortgage market.”

“Concentrating on the needs of Central New York-ers is what Seneca Fed-eral is all about,” Russo concluded.

Lisa Hetko, branch manager at Seneca Federal, presents donations collected at this year’s Costume for a Cause to Chris Benton of Vera House.

CANCERBEWARE

“I had cancer. Cancer never had me.”

Yesterday, I got out my fishing rod. I couldn’t help thinking of everyone at HOA. It was last spring when I found out. I was overwhelmed, dis-traught – and scared. I thought my fishing days were over. �en I went to HOA. My medical team all said, “We have the technology to fight this thing!” and showed me the CyberKnife. It sounded scary, but when I learned how it worked and how safe it was, I had hope for the first time. Your attitude really inspired me, your staff always encouraged me and your plan of action worked. I may have had cancer, but cancer never had me. Today, my kids and I are heading up to the lake.

Cross country girls celebrate historic seasonBy Kurt Wheeler

Members of the Cazeno-via Lakers girls varsity cross country team gathered for their team dinner on Nov. 17 to celebrate the most successful season in the program’s history. There was much to celebrate by season’s end, with the team achieving a series of “firsts” and establishing new records in nearly every category.

The team swept through their regular season sched-ule, achieving a perfect 7-0 undefeated record in league contests, no small feat in the highly competi-tive Liberty Division of the Onondaga High School League which saw five of its eight teams state-ranked over the course of the sea-son. The harrier’s league championship was its first ever in the OHSL and the first title of any type since a 1982 Tri-Valley League Championship. The Lakers were also highly successful at multi-school meets, win-ning its first small schools title among 30 competitors at the Baldwinsville Invi-tational and placing first among all Class B schools at the Chittenango, VVS and ES-M Invitationals as well as the OHSL Champion-ship Meet. Cazenovia also won its second consecutive Madison County Champi-onship with an exceptional performance that saw the Lakers claim nine of the first ten places. The team

enjoyed its greatest depth in program history with thir-teen members of the squad ranked on the Sectional Leader Board by season’s end, including five girls with a speed rating over 80. Six members of the team achieved sub-six minute miles during the season. The team capitalized on that depth and talent to win its first Section III title. Earning its first trip to the State Championship, the Lady Lakers outperformed their pre-race rankings to finish third in the state. The girls were equally effective in the classroom, earning scholar-athlete status with a team average of over 95 percent.

The squad also recog-

nized numerous teammates for individual achieve-ments, including an all-time record seven harriers who earned All-League status. Rae Tobey, Hol-lie Marcelle and Jeanette Cudney led the way with 1st team honors while Malone Gabor, Michelle Karker, Margaret Wolsey and Emma Wolsey all made the 2nd team. Eleven mem-bers of the team earned individual scholar-athlete awards as the squad epit-omized the meaning of the program with its top six runners achieving six of the team’s top seven scores. Senior Captain Hol-lie Marcelle was honored with the prestigious “Ca-reer Contribution Award”

while Junior Rae Tobey earned the “Most Valu-able Runner” plaque and Freshman Jeanette Cud-ney earned “Rookie of the Year” honors. Co-Captain Alex Dolbear and fellow senior Rachel Grimm were recognized for their leader-ship and dedication to the program while first-year Senior Grace Eberle earned praise for her perseverance and determination. Despite the loss of the four seniors, the Lakers look forward to another exceptional season in 2011 with 12 returning runners, including six of their top seven from this fall’s historic campaign.

had one of the most potent offenses Central New York had ever seen. At its heart was Tori Widrick, the se-nior going to Ball State, along with Vogl, a junior, and two more seniors, Abby Eschen and Belle Hoagland, each of whom could take over a game at any time.

In support was a mid-field that included Emma-Jean Speer and Kara Stalder, but just as important was the experience Cazeno-via possessed in the back. Goalie Emily Mastropaolo was a steady presence, and in front of her Raeanne Clabeaux, Ellen Burr, Sar-ahRose Gabor and Molly Hudson could turn any kind of attack away with their sticks.

E v e r y t h i n g w e n t smoothly in the regular season. Despite non-league defeats to Rome Free Acad-emy and Camden, the Lak-ers went 14-2, increasing its win streak over Onondaga High School League foes to 59 games. It would also score 104 goals for the season, the most by any Section III team in a single season.

The sectional playoffs passed without incident, as the Lakers handled Canas-tota, dominated the Class C final with Holland Patent despite a 1-0 winning mar-gin (Hoagland’s late pen-alty stroke decided it), and destroyed New York Mills 7-0 in the C/D state quali-fier at CNS on Nov. 6, a turf to which it would return a couple of weeks later.

Now came that all-im-portant regional, the road-block in years past. Only this time, it was Whitney Point, not Marathon, serv-ing as the opposition – and in a personal tour de force Nov. 9 at Greene High School, Eschen served up a three-goal hat trick in a 3-1 Laker victory.

As it turned out, the re-gional final against Green-wich Nov. 13 at Shenende-howa (near Albany) proved more harrowing. Cazeno-via actually trailed, 1-0, at halftime, but pulled even late in the second half with Widrick’s goal, then won it 2-1 as Hoagland, just as he had done in the sectional final against HP, won it with a late penalty stroke.

On the familiar CNS turf for the state final four the Lakers made short work of its semifinal against Briarcliff Manor, a 4-0 rout that left Cazenovia just one victory short of the ultimate prize.

Pierson Bridgehampton stood in the way, and for 60 tense minutes of regulation it remained 0-0, Cazenovia wondering if would ever convert – especially after Hoagland saw a penalty stroke stopped early in the second half.

Then came the overtime, with its seven-on-seven format designed to open up the field and allow someone a good chance to win it. It worked for the Lakers in 2006 on this same field – and when Vogl converted and got mobbed by her newly-minted state championship teammates, it worked here, too.

Cazenovia First Presbyterian Church news

Community Christmas Carol Fest plannedSubmitted by

Sharye Skinner

The First Presbyterian Church in Cazenovia will host a Soup and Dessert Café at 5 p.m. Friday Dec. 3 in the meetinghouse of the church. Immediately following the tree light-ing in the front yard of the church there will be a carol sing in the sanctuary featuring Christmas music from the string ensemble of the Cazenovia High School under the direc-tion of Mary Coburn. The Sounds of Chimes and Jubilate Bell Choirs under the direction of Catharine Wheat will also add to the festivities.

So stop by the Cazeno-via Presbyterian for some warm soup, tasty desserts and wonderful Christmas music on Friday Dec. 3. Then go on the streets and enjoy the Christmas Walk

The Season of Advent: Anticipation and Hope

The First Presbyterian Church in Cazenovia will celebrate the Advent Season by lighting the Bethlehem Candle, the second candle on the Ad-vent wreath at its morning worship service at 10 a.m. Dec. 5. The public is in-vited. The Rev. Dr. Steven R. Thomas will deliver the message “The Holy Way.”

The service will feature Christmas in Brass with trumpeters Aaron Ve-lardi and Patrick Carney playing special music and accompanying the hymns. The Sound of Chimes will play “In The Bleak Midwinter.” The Senior Choir will be singing the “Hallelujah Chorus” and yes, you may sing along!

The word Ad-vent means “coming” or

“arrival.” The focus of the entire season is the celebration of the birth of Jesus the Christ in his First Advent, and the anticipa-tion of the return of Christ the King in his Second Advent. Advent is marked by a spirit of expectation, of anticipation, of prepara-tion, of longing, of hope.

Advent devotional booklets are available at the church office at 27 Albany St., or pick one up during the Sunday service.

If you are looking for an open and friendly place to celebrate Sunday morn-ing worship, the Cazeno-via Presbyterian Church welcomes you. Child Care and Sunday School are available during the service. For more informa-tion contact the church at 655-3191 or cazpres.org.

Sharye Skinner is the publicist for the Cazenovia First Presbyterian Church.

Richard R. VanWyk, 83Retired carpenter

Richard R. VanWyk, 83, of English Avenue, Eaton, passed away Sun-day Nov. 21, 2010, at the Crouse Community Center, Morrisville.

He was born May 5, 1927 in Whitney Point, NY, a son of John and Marion Purcell VanWyk and was a graduate of Eaton High School in 1945. Richard proudly served in the U.S. Navy during WWII. On Nov. 28, 1957, he married Marion (Hallenbeck) Simmons in Schenectady, NY. Richard was a construction su-perintendent and carpenter for Guy F. Atkinson of San Francisco, CA until his retirement. Follow-ing that, he worked for Park City Builders of Hamilton.

Mr. VanWyk was an active member of the Eaton Community Bible Church where he served as deacon, trustee and youth group leader. He was also a member of the Carpenters Union Local #120 of Utica; a former member of the Masonic Lodge, the Eaton Fire Department, and had served as Fire Commissioner.

Surviving are his wife, Marion;

children, Ray and DeDe Sim-mons of Eaton; Patty and Alan Harris of Rochester and Kathy Simmons of DeRuyter; brother and sisters-in-law, William and Sandy VanWyk of Heber Springs, AR; Heidi VanWyk of Yardley, PA; grandchildren, Meagan and Yvonne Harris of Rochester; Josh-ua and Beth Harris of Hoboken, NJ; Amanda Simmons of Albany; Jessica Simmons of Morrisville; two great-grandchildren, Ryder and Connor Harris; several nieces and nephews. A brother, John VanWyk predeceased him.

In keeping with his wishes, funeral services and burial will be private.

There will be no calling hours.Contributions in his memory

may be made to the Eaton Com-munity Bible Church, Eaton, NY 13334; or to the Eaton Fire De-partment, Eaton NY 13334.

Arrangements have been en-trusted to Burgess & Tedesco Fu-neral Home, Morrisville, NY.

Obituaries using maps on a computer. The collaborative project was a Thanksgiving-themed practice of deductive reasoning, camouflaged as a fun game of 20 Ques-tions. The activity was titled “The Turkey Disguise Collaboration” and each school had designed a colorful turkey for the other to see. Pupils from both Tully and Cazenovia were remarkably well-behaved throughout the activity, exchanging friendly waves and a few quiet smiles. After each classroom had their turn guessing which turkey was chosen, the students had a chance to discuss a number of books that both they had recently read.

The class-to-class collaborative project was coordinated by BOCES educators and facilitated by the New York State Distance Learning Consor-tium members. The event ran in numerous schools throughout New York state, as 10 other districts had also received new video conferencing hardware through the grant. Burton Street Librarian Kathy El-liot and Computer Technician Becky Fuller received training from BOCES and knowledgably conducted the conference.

Many were in attendance on both sides of the screen. Cazenovia Superintendent Bob Dubik was present to witness the first transmission, as was Donna Fountain, the assistant superintendent for curriculum and instruction.

Fountain was filled with excitement after the 40-minute conference.

“There are a lot of possibilities with this equip-ment, and we are really looking forward to explor-ing more. I think it is really good for the kids to see what is out beyond us and that other kids are doing the same thing,” she said.

While this technology has been available for years, what really makes this platform so successful is the social networking tool, CAPSpace. Over the

Internet, 7,698 educators in 33 different countries are able to make connections and visit each other’s classrooms daily. The curriculum offered through the web has incredible potential. Students now have the opportunity to partake in distance learning; they can sit in on advanced courses not offered at their schools, take field trips to museums across the world, and even explore the universe with NASA scientists.

In the next few months the school will be partak-ing in “Read Around the Planet,” organized by Two Way Interactive Connections in Education, a divi-sion of CAPSpace. Elliot and Fuller are incredibly proud to help make these collaborations possible and are optimistic for future transmissions.

Fuller discussed the simplicity of the seemingly complicated technology.

“We can hook up with anyone as long as we know their IP address, and the time zone difference finds them within the parameters of a normal school day,” she said.

Elliot added: “It is a wonderful teaching tool, and it’s very exciting that we have received this equip-ment. The possibilities are truly limitless.”

It’s impressive to consider how far technology in the classroom has come. Overhead projectors have been replaced with television screens and VCRs with DVD players. The video conferencing equip-ment is somewhat portable, and can be easily moved from classroom to classroom. An ethernet cable and an electrical outlet is all that’s required to take the students wherever they wish. While textbooks are still current and widely used, multiple daily hookups will soon allow students to not only look out the window and across the street, but through a window taking them across the planet.
