Alumni of the dojo were invited to dress in and particie along with all current pate members and their families in the area were invited to attend. Dr. Andor Paposi-Jobb was recognized and presented a plaque by the University President, Karen Whitney for his accomplishments and the recognition the dojo has given the University over the years. Dr. Jobb stated: “I am grateful for the fact that over the past half century a variety of Clarion State Teachers College/Clarion University of Pennsylvania departments have provided a venue for the operation of ‘our’ record-holding; 2nd longest operating judo dojo in the USA, HUN-JudoDojo.” Over the past fifty years Dr. Jobb Sensei has promoted over a dozen black belts, some of whom have attained advanced blackbelt status and have dojos of their own.

From the early 70s through the mid-70’s, judo was a varsity sport offered through the College’s Athletic Department. In the mid-seventies, budget cutbacks within the State’s educational system caused varsity judo to lose its funding along with a number of sports. HUN-Judo, then, continued on with student club status, and eventually came under the umbrella of the Department of Continuing Education were it remains today. There is now a second dojo held at the Oil City Venango Campus. Throughout these changes, CUP’s HUN-JudoDojo maintained its membership in the National and More photos and story contiued on B-2.

Both schools have struggled with numbers so this will give the athletes a chance to compete. Who knows what the future will hold for these 2 programs. As predicted the Pens went out in 5 games. Crosby and Malkin both should appear on milk cartons as they once again disappeared. When the Pens won the Stanley Cup back in 2009 the talk was not when will they win the next cup but how many cups will they win. As both these players inch toward being 30 the question might be will they ever win another cup. Interesting that there was speculation that Crosby and Malkin might have been playing hurt against the Rangers and then when eliminated word came out that they were both going to play for their countries in this week’s World Championships. The Baltimore Orioles played their game against the Rays the other day in front of 0 fans. This is the lowest attendance for a game since the Oakland A’s drew 653 fans for a game in 79. The Pirates are 12-10 as of this writing. When the bats start to wake up the Bucs should be fine. To be over 500 with more than half of their lineup batting around the Mendoza Line is a tribute to their starting pitching. The Steelers taking Bud Dupree in the first round of the NFL draft looks like a good pick. But then again Jarvis Jones looked like a good pick. You never know. The Steelers offense is good enough to win lots of games but that defense needs a lot of help. Kiesel is gone for now, Harrison had to come out of retirement to bail them out last year. Woirlds, Polomalu, and Taylor are now retired. Lots of holes will need to be filled. Thought of the week: Why is the man who invests all of your money called a “Broker”? Hunting For The Perfect Outdoors App? Trying to locate a new hunting spot? Want to find out which way the wind is blowing at your tree stand, quickly check what’s in season, or see instantly when the sun will set on your day afield? There’s an app for that. The Pennsylvania Game Commission has launched its new GoHuntPA Toolkit, a features-loaded, free app available through the GoHuntPA.org website. The app is designed to be handy for hunters, whether they’re viewing it at home in preparation for a hunt, or putting it to the test in the field. The GoHuntPA Toolkit is the simplest way yet to find huntable tracts of state game lands, learn more about the habitat and wildlife there, and even view maps showing where the parking lots are located. Using augmented reality, the app allows users simply to hold their mobile devices in front of them to see the locations of nearby game lands. And by clicking on the flags that pop up to mark these sites, users can learn more about the tracts. Selecting the “route” option will activate your device’s GPS function and give you turn-by-turn directions to the parking lot of your choice. Maps available through the app provide a more-detailed look at terrain and access points at game lands statewide. The app also allows users to check weather and daylight conditions, view hunting regulations, seasons and bag limits, and post pictures through Instagram of their days afield. There’s also a tracking feature that allows members of the same hunting party see the locations of others, and mark the sites where they parked or set up camp, to make sure they make it back. Meanwhile, an SOS safety feature allows users to notify friends and family of their exact GPS coordinates in the event of an emergency. To download the GoHuntPA Toolkit, visit GoHuntPA.org, or simply visit your device’s app store and search for the toolkit by name. The app might not be compatible with older devices or software. Game Commission Executive Director R. Matthew Hough said the GoHuntPA Toolkit aims to make hunting in Pennsylvania even more enjoyable, and more importantly, safer. And he urged hunters to download the free app before their next trip afield. “The GoHuntPA Toolkit places useful and easy-to-access information directly into the palms of hunters’ hands, and makes it available to them wherever they go,” Hough said. “Aside from your license and other essential gear, about the only thing else you’ll need to bring along is a pair of fingerless gloves.” Cycle Elements 305 Emlenton St., St. Petersburg, PA 724-659-3082 or Cell: 724-496-8555 Authorized Drag Specialties and Parts Unlimited Supplier We offer Competitive Pricing on all Domestic & Foreign Motorcycle, ATV, UTV Tires, Parts & Accessories. Full Service on All Domestic Motorcycles Into The Outdoors Dorothy Day: Grandmother and Potential Saint Jerry Costello for The Christophers By Chris Henderson I wonder how many of you out there remember the old “Woody Woodpecker” cartoons. Created by cartoonist Walter Lantz, Woody was famous for his “Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha” laugh. I don’t really know what kind of woodpecker Woody was meant to represent, but I got to thinking that a column on these beautiful, if bizarre, birds might be a nice idea. I’ve always been fascinated by woodpeckers. We always keep a suet block outside to attract them. Not long ago, a pileated woodpecker showed up at our feeder. These are, perhaps, the strangest and neatest of all woodpeckers. Years ago, they were considered very rare in Pennsylvania. I once read an article that said that they were once hunted for food. Supposedly, they were easy to call in. This would explain their rarity, but, personally, despite my adventurous palate, I have never given any thought to eating woodpeckers. Anyway, these largest of woodpeckers have enjoyed a comeback in recent years. At one time, they were creatures exclusively of the deep woods, but now they are showing up more and more often closer to civilization. They are extremely easy to identify. First of all, they are big, almost reaching the size of a wood duck. They have a high crest, bright red in color. The rest is black, with some white on the head and breast. Their primary food is grubs, sometimes bored from the center of very large trees. They have a long, barb-tipped tongue which helps them to grab their prey. I suspect that it is this protein instinct that draws them to suet. They are also known as logcock. This is sometimes confused with woodcock, a game bird, which could explain their sometimes being shot. The next largest woodpecker in these parts is the northern flicker. Once extremely common, it seems that they are seen less often nowadays. The short description of them would be larger than a robin, basically golden in color, with accents of red. Their favorite food is ants, and they will perch on an anthill and use their long beak to reach in and eat the critters by the dozen. It would appear that the stings and bites have no effect on them. Once we’re done with these two, the others become a bit harder to identify, as they are very similar in appearance. For me at least, the hairy woodpecker and the downy woodpecker are almost impossible to distinguish, although the more accomplished birder would probably not have this problem. Like their larger cousins, they are very fond of suet, and also peanut butter placed in holes drilled in a two-byfour. Even though I have trouble telling them apart, I still love to look at them. These next two, also lovers of suet and peanut butter, are easier to identify. The yellow-bellied sapsucker’s name says it all. If you see a woodpecker with a yellow belly, that is a bit smaller than a robin, it’s a yellow-bellied sapsucker. The other, the red-headed woodpecker is also smaller than a robin, but its entire head, neck and upper breast are all a rich, deep red. The redheads are most often seen from about April 15th to October 1st, but they are also occasionally seen in winter. I’ve always been fascinated by woodpeckers. I can’t help but be puzzled as to how they avoid permanent brain damage with that fierce pecking. They are great fun to watch. Just put out some suet or peanut butter and find out. Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha! Drake Well Museum and Park Presents Something More Saturdays: 19th Century Cooking On Saturday, May 9, Drake Well Museum and Park and Friends of Drake Well, Inc. will present the fifth installment of Something More Saturdays, a monthly program offering visitors unique and entertaining learning experiences not included in a typical visit to the museum.

Many people, aware of her background, still find it hard to believe—despite a voice vote endorsement of her cause by the entire body of American bishops. How about Dorothy Day as a grandmother? That’s harder still for many others to accept, the image of Day as social activist extraordinaire firmly planted in their minds. But take it from one who knows, a granddaughter herself. Dorothy Day was not only a grandmother—the grandmother of nine, by the way—but her granddaughter, Martha Hennessy, has warm memories of the socially active Day as a “regular” grandma, one in the mold that we all knew. Hennessy carries on the activist tradition by making her Catholic faith a way of life, by following a vigorous social agenda herself, and by promoting Day’s cause for sainthood wherever she can. Hennessy, 59, took the cause to Hawaii last year, where Darlene Dela Cruz wrote about her visit in the Hawaii Catholic Herald. Hennessy has vivid recollections of her grandmother, who died in 1980, as “very warm but very reserved, very serious and very focused.” Day spent much of her time traveling, but made sure she regularly visited Hennessy’s mother, Tamar, at the family farm in Vermont. The life of Dorothy Day in her later years stands in marked contrast to her lifestyle as a young woman, “drifting” in New York. During those years she was involved in love affairs, had an abortion, and entered a common-law marriage. That would result in the birth of her only child, whom she baptized a Catholic, and subsequently entered the Church herself. Dorothy Day went on to co-found the Catholic Worker movement (with Peter Maurin) in 1933, and would spend the rest of her life with a strong antiwar platform, also campaigning fiercely for civil rights and for migrant workers. Meanwhile, she was busy being a grandmother. Hennessy’s memories of her in that role go all the way back to when she was three and sitting in her grandma’s lap. The granddaughter recalled one special visit in particular, when she was sick in bed at the age of 13. Day consoled her by reading to her from a book by Louisa May Alcott and giving her a bit of fudge. “It’s really important,” Hennessy said, “to know her in that context.” She was 25 when Day died in 1980, old enough to recognize the importance of her life and the influence it had on others. “She just had a way of understanding God and just seeing the world that was very powerful, very unique,” says Hennessy, who follows the Catholic Worker tradition herself. “We all come together as a family to try to share in community. This is what she’s given us—this incredible model integrating faith in daily life with the works of mercy.” Hennessy concedes that Day’s antiwar message and her personal faith journey might have been controversial at times, but hopes that her call to care for those in need will resonate with everyone. The “very unusual” life of Dorothy Day could stand as the reason she might become a 20th-century saint, Hennessy believes. “The more we live it, the more our rough edges are worn off in serving others,” she said. “I believe she is a saint.” For a free copy of the Christopher News Note, APPRECIATING OUR ELDERS, write: The Christophers, 5 Hanover Square, New York, NY 10004; or e-mail: [email protected] Views on Dental Health Dr. Domenick DeFRANCISIS of Titusville, Drake Well Museum and Park is open year round.

When your dentist presents a plan to restore your child's mouth which has been injured by cavities, your reaction may be; why shouldn't I just wait and let nature replace these teeth? Here are a few facts concerning the absolute necessity of taking care of a maturing mouth if we expect the adult mouth to be healthy: (1) Cavities change the baby tooth size — causing permanents to come in crowded and irregular. (2) Untreated decay causes infection (and pain), which can alter the formation of the new teeth, cause systemic problems and adversely affect, mouth odor and appearance. Erupting permanent teeth are in the mouth up to six years before all the baby teeth are lost, soaking in bacteria laden saliva from any decayed baby teeth. This causes the permanent teeth to decay also, and affects the enamel quality, strength, position and appearance of the new teeth. The care of baby teeth can help insure a healthy adult mouth and eliminate problems before they develop.

Kelly Applauds House Passage of Congressional Balanced Budget Resolution WASHINGTON — U.S. Representative Mike Kelly (RPA) – a member of the House Ways and Means Committee – issued the following statement today in support of the final bicameral budget agreement for fiscal year 2016, also known as the Conference Report to S. Con. Res. 11. The legislation was passed by the House of Representatives yesterday evening by 226197. “For the first time in more than a decade, the People’s House has passed a plan produced by both chambers of Congress that will balance the federal budget in less than 10 years and put our country on a sustainable path to real economic growth. This is a monumental achievement by America’s new Congress, which is fulfilling its promise to put commonsense priorities first and get things done for the American people. “This bicameral plan will finally reverse our nation’s record high debt without raising any taxes—a far cry from all seven of President Obama’s proposed budgets, including his latest proposal, which includes more than $2 trillion in tax increases and never even comes close to balancing. As the world’s dangers continue to grow, our budget will properly increase funding for our men and women in uniform to help them do their jobs and keep us safe. It will also fully preserve Medicare and begin the important process of repealing and replacing Obamacare. “Families in Western Pennsylvania and Americans from coast to coast are expected to live by a responsible budget every single year. With this historic budget agreement, Washington is finally doing the same.” 10 Ways This Budget Helps Street Shepard Thrift Store 502 Ferry St., East Brady Community Center Open Mon., Wed., Fri., - 10 am to 5 pm Tues., Thurs. - 12 pm to 6 pm Sat. - 11 am to 3 pm 724-487-2167 Hardworking Families This plan helps hardworking families by: · Balancing the federal budget without raising taxes to help create 1.2 million new jobs, save taxpayers more than $5 trillion, and protect future generations from crushing debt. · Making the tax code simpler and fairer so that families can keep more of what they earn and manufacturers can bring good-paying jobs home. · Making it easier to repeal ObamaCare so that we can replace it with reforms focused on lowering costs, protecting jobs, and strengthening the doctor-patient relationship. · Preserving Medicare so that our seniors can have the security, peace of mind, and quality care they deserve. · Ensuring a strong national defense so that our military personnel have the resources they need to confront threats at home and abroad. · Expanding America’s energy boom to help create more good-paying jobs and save families money on their bills. · Reining in red tape so that it’s easier to start and grow and business in the Land of Opportunity. · Increasing employment opportunities for disabled workers and improving the administration and coordination of benefits to protect communities and our most vulnerable citizens. · Cutting waste and eliminating redundancies so that taxpayer dollars are spent with transparency and accountability – or not at all. · Calling on Congress to pass a balanced budget amendment so that fiscal responsibility is locked in for future generations. Our budget is focused on helping families get ahead and building a stronger, more competitive economy – and, of course, it’s another step in getting things done for the American people.

What Clarion County currently faces is not a democrat or republican issue, it is a genuine concern of its citizens. We do not need an annex, we do not need to tax our citizens any more; we do not need more debt that must be paid back by residents in future years; we do not need larger government; and we do not need more regulations that stymie growth and business. What we do need is a business friendly environment so business and industry can be prosperous and create good, permanent, family sustaining jobs. We need a drug free and educated work force to hold these jobs.

William R. McCall, Jr. Mayor City of Parker “Recycled Rides” Vehicle Goes To Local Veteran, Mother Of Two-year-old The gift of a “Recycled Ride” vehicle will make life a little easier for a mother who is juggling working while caring for her two- year -old son. Jessica Watkins, 37 of Butler Pennsylvania was chosen to receive the Recycled Ride. “Recycled Rides” is a community service program of the National Auto Body Council where body shops repair and donate recycled vehicles to families in need. Jessica was chosen as the recipient of this donation through the NABC and the Center for Community Services in Butler. Serving in the Air Force for 20 years , Jessica decided to end her service a year ago with high hopes for her future. Finding a job immediately out of service, Jessica was found unemployed only four months later. As a result of financial struggles, the Watkins family car was repossessed leaving the family unsure of how to care for their son who suffers from Asthma in an emergency and how she would see the rest of her family and three older children. With the receipt of this vehicle, Jessica will be able to see her children more often, care for her son and travel for special events and family trips throughout the year. The keys to a refurbished 2013 Ford Explorer will be presented to Jessica and her family at 3:00pm on May 16, 2015 at Randy & Bob’s CARSTAR 40th Anniversary Open House. “This whole experience is very humbling. All I heard before leaving the military is that Veterans are not well taken care of, but this experience has proven that to be wrong. I am proud to be from a great supportive community that is caring for Veterans,” said Jessica Watkins. The vehicle donation comes through MetLife Auto & Home who has been a Recycled Rides partner for four years. “Through MetLife Auto & Home’s partnership with the Recycled Rides, we’ve been able to make a difference in many people’s lives by donating a car to those in need. It is an honor to be a part of another donation to help a veteran.” - Richard Ward director, MetLife Auto & Home. Center for Community Resources in Butler sought nominations of families in need of reliable transportation, and Jessica was selected by them as the recipient. The Mission of Center for Community Resources is to make a positive difference in every day lives by connecting people to a network of supports and services essential for actively learning, working and living in the community. The agency’s goal is to coordinate supportive services for individuals and families seeking information & referral for mental health, intellectual disabilities, substance abuse and other human service needs. Jean Bowen, from CCR added; “ As an employee at Center for Community Resources, I am privileged to assist individuals in making a positive difference in their lives. CCR is grateful to Natalie Butcherine for calling and requesting assistance in linking a family of a veteran to a much needed vehicle.

The results for the 2014 period included securities gains of $658,000 related to a balance sheet management strategy whereby securities were sold to prepay a $5.0 million Federal Home Loan Bank long term advance and associated securities gains were used to offset the impact of a $550,000 prepayment penalty associated with the early retirement of the advance. Excluding the non-recurring security gains, prepayment penalty and the related income tax impact, results in the first quarter of 2015 were favorable with consolidated net income available to common stockholders of $756,000 compared to $745,000 for the same period in 2014. William C. Marsh, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation and the Bank, noted, "We are pleased to report positive core earnings and balance sheet growth for the first quarter of 2015. We continue to experience solid deposit growth, including growth at our two newest offices. Efforts in the upcoming quarters will be focused on the continued expansion of our loan portfolio, the implementation of strategies aimed at enhancing revenue, and the management of operating expenses.

The CUP HUN-Judo-Dojo presently continues to participate in local, regional and state tournaments, via the judoka’s memberships in various national judo associations. The HUN-JudoDojo continues to promote competent judoka of various ranks and consistently produce tournament champions. Attending the celebration were past dojo members, several prominent Pittsburgh Masters and members of dojos from Pittsburgh, Corry, Kittanning, Clearfield, and Oil City. This was also promotions day, where several of the dojo members were promoted to their next level of colored belt. Of note was the promotion of Arthur (Artie) Crawford, of Foxurg, PA. His promotion was kept secret until the presentation. The Mayor of Foxburg, Chuck Gisselbrecht, was invited to the celebration and was asked to present Artie with his “black belt”. This was the last promotion of the evening and when Sensei Jobb called Artie’s name, a burst of excitement was heard from his fellow judoka. Mayor Gisselbrect presented him with his first degree (shodan) black belt, and a round of applause and congratulations were bestowed on Artie for his accomplishment. It was a most memorable moment for Artie and his friends.

I see some residents have swept the stuff up in front of their homes on their own, and we say thanks for the help. The vacuum truck won’t pick up that heavy bulk, Woody and his crew have been out there working hard to get it all up like they do every year........The week of May 4th, it will be happening in Knoxerland. MAY is here.....Enjoy! From Mayor Frank A / Knox Pa.
