Going in to see Joss Whedon’s Avengers: Age of Ultron, I was not happy. As to be expected, even on the second day, one had to wait in line an hour before the showing time to get a seat. If you can make it through all of the trailers for the upcoming comic book to screen adaptations, and believe me, there will be many, Age of Ultron will delight. It starts right in the middle of things, with incredible action sequences, and from there, the action rarely stops or even slows.

In the event of an emergency such as a in ice storm or wind storm that disrupts power, the independent microgrid would be able to provide power to places like the hospital and water plant, he explained. NYSERDA is offering up to 100 percent funding of up to $100,000 for a stage one feasibility assessment with NY Prize proposals being accepted until May 15.
A single-vehicle accident sent one driver to the hospital today (April 29), and left a portion of State Route 48 closed.

Recently, hundreds of SUNY Oswego students and staff walked past more than 1,000 backpacks displayed from one end of the campus center to the other. The 1,100 backpacks weren’t abandoned by their owners; they were meticulously scattered about the facility on purpose. Many of them had the names of their “owners” affixed to them. They came from a myriad backgrounds and hometowns; names like Ariel, Chelsea, Tim and Drew. The common thread that will forever tie them to each other – they were all college students who took their own lives.
