RIVERDALE, N.Y. -- Manhattan College’s sesquicentennial celebration continues with the lecture A Spirituality of Mentoring: A Challenge for Catholic Education Today on Monday, April 7 at 3:45pm in Smith Auditorium. Dr. Tom Beaudoin, visiting assistant professor of theology at Boston College, will speak. Admission is free.
At a time when generational differences in society, school and church are obvious and often pronounced, how can the wisdom of one generation be creatively received by the next? Dr. Beaudoin’s lecture will look at how the development of mentoring relationships can be an important way for Catholic education to ensure the continuation of its vision.
The lecture also marks the celebration of Founders Day in
honor of St.

Village witnessing history-making mayor, trustee campaigns
Khurram Saeed The Journal News
There's something novel about this year's political races
in
For the first time in the village's 17-year history, the incumbent candidates running for mayor and trustee are facing opposition.
On March 18,
The term for each part-time position is four years.
Both the Western Ramapo Civic Party, representing the incumbents, and the Preserve Our Future Party, made up of political newcomers, have put up a mayor and two trustee candidates. There is also one candidate for trustee running on the Committee for an Independent Choice line.
This year's vote is significant because if one of two
larger slates sweeps the election, its three candidates will control the
five-person village board for the next four years. With the village in the
process of updating its master plan, the winners could conceivably shape the
future of
With the stakes so high, the races have been heated.
Jeff Oppenheim, a trustee candidate with the Preserve Our Future Party, called the election "a referendum on the master plan."
"We want no new high-density housing, particularly anything
that would require downzoning," said Oppenheim, a
One of the proposals of the master plan, which is nearing its final stages and will go to the village board and public after the election, calls for a "village center." It would potentially include office space, townhouses and shops along Route 59, across the street from Good Samaritan Hospital.
Candidates of the Western Ramapo Civic Party have been more noncommittal, saying they would support more development if that's what village residents want.
For the most part, the incumbents have promoted their combined 25 years of experience, their ability to keep village taxes low and their autonomy from the town, while questioning the lack of experience of their opponents.
Mayor Kathryn Ellsworth, who has led the village since it
was formed in 1986, said her government has been run effectively and
efficiently, noting the tax rate in
"Leadership and experience counts," Ellsworth said.
Mayoral candidate Melanie Golden and running mate Jeff Gill said their ticket opposed any kind of new development that would include more retail stores and high-density housing in the village.
Although such projects would add to the village's tax base, they would increase the burden on already overcrowded schools and negatively impact the village's "rustic, rural nature," said Golden, a lawyer who volunteered time to fight two power plants proposed for Torne Valley.
Fredericka Shpetner, a village trustee since 1996 who is running for re-election, said the master plan should reflect the will of the people. For the past year, village planners and a master plan committee, of which Shpetner is a member, have sought residents' input on the type of zoning and land use they would prefer, and, overwhelmingly, they disapprove of downzoning, something the village has never done, she said.
Lance Millman, running on the Committee for an Independent Choice line, said he favored the creation of moderate-price housing to allow teachers, police officers and young families to continue to live in the village.
"I don't think

Golden dismissed the accusations. The party sent a letter to village residents last month stating they are not "beholden" to "outside forces."
St. Lawrence said he encouraged Golden to run for office
because he was impressed with her work to fight power plants proposed for
"I think they're trying to put up some kind of smoke screen," St. Lawrence said of the incumbents. "I think it's a non-issue that they're trying to make into an issue."

HEADLINE: Making the tough shots;
Company helps cameras reach hard-to-reach places
SOURCE: North Jersey Media Group
BYLINE: LEWIS KRAUSKOPF, STAFF WRITER
Don Imus devotees not only can listen but watch the radio show on daily broadcasts by MSNBC. What viewers won't see, however, are the people controlling the cameras.
MSNBC installed robotic cameras on four walls in the New York studio operated by a control room in Secaucus.
The system uses technology built by Telemetrics Inc., a 31-year-old Mahwah company that specializes in robotic and other electronic video equipment that allows cameras to get shots in hard-to-reach places.
Imus is only one subject that Telemetrics' has helped capture. Over the years, its products have been used for everything from capturing the speeches inside the chambers of the New York state Assembly to action from an umpire's helmet at the Little League World Series.
Anthony Cuomo, the 75-year-old founder and president of
Telemetrics, has built the firm from his
"By now, I think anybody who's looking for this kind of thing sort of knows about us," Cuomo said.
Telemetrics doesn't build cameras; rather, the company engineers and builds systems that adapt to cameras, allowing them to sit on ski helmets, atop basketball backboards, and in plane cockpits. Their products are used by those in the broadcasting, industrial, educational, and military fields.
The company owes its roots to Cuomo's tenure as an
engineering manager for North American Phillips Broadcast. At Phillips, Cuomo,
a
The single cable allowed signals to be carried on a different frequency, which in turn allowed TV stations at events to take cameras far from the control areas in vans.
Phillips closed its North American engineering division in the late 1960s, he said, and Cuomo started Telemetrics, hiring two former co-workers. Incorporated in 1972, Telemetrics' first product was this cable adapter system, known as a Triax.
"The need for this device was so important for the remote operation of these cameras, and we were pretty much the only people around who did it," Cuomo said.
Philip Godfrey, a former manager of the engineering department at ABC television, said the Telemetrics equipment was critical to the changing style of the network's coverage in the 1970s and 1980s.
The Triax cable would allow ABC's cameras to roam more on the sidelines of football games and around arenas for political conventions - key to the late Roone Arledge's desire to add more human drama to ABC's coverage, Godfrey said.
Later, Godfrey said, Telemetrics equipment would aid ABC in placing cameras on the helmets of ski jumpers, hockey players, and umpires in the Little League World Series.
Cuomo said the company's relationship with ABC also propelled Telemetrics' other main business: the robotic camera system.
In shooting auto racing events, such as the
"They wanted certain kind of control panels for their video people to use that almost felt like their guy was behind the camera," said Cuomo, who added that Telemetrics developed a system custom-fit to ABC's cameras.
This product, known as a "Pan and Tilt" camera mount, became the second main backbone offering from Telemetrics. The company builds the joysticks, computer boards, and software to allow for controlling cameras from miles away.
The equipment was used for the robotic system installed
in the
When a legislator gets up to speak, the control room operator can touch a screen identifying the person's seat and one of seven cameras can focus on him, Preston said.
Telemetrics, which provided pan-and-tilt units and software,
also custom-built a joystick system that showed the company's flexibility,
"They do a lot of customized systems, and I think
their strength is they're small enough to respond to unique needs,"
Cuomo agrees that Telemetrics' flexibility will be crucial to keep the company profitable as it sees greater competition from larger electronic manufacturers.
At its 10,000-square-foot offices in Mahwah, Telemetrics engineers examine the latest cameras - such as those for DVDs or high definition television - to develop custom equipment.
Cuomo said the company sells individual parts and
integrates parts for an entire system, such as at the Imus show or the
Current projects include equipment for a government assembly
hall in
Cuomo says staying flexible and looking for areas without competition will be key to the company's future.
"I wish I could tell you that I plan everything out," Cuomo said.
"We've got to look for the slot businesses."

USAFA, CO (MARCH 11, 2003) – Senior weight thrower Thomas Jacob Freeman (East Greenwich, RI) was named the Mondo Athlete of the Year for indoor track for the Northeast region announced today by the National Collegiate Athletic Association Division I Coaches Association.

The Manhattan College men's basketball team (23-6) won the 2003 EUS Communications MAAC Championship and the accompanying automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament by defeating Fairfield University 69-54 at the Sovereign Bank Arena. This is the Jaspers' second MAAC Championship, and first since 1993.
Junior Luis Flores (New York, NY) scored a game-high 22 points and grabbed 10 rebounds en route to being named the Most Valuable Player of the tournament.
Senior Jared
The Jaspers jumped out to an early lead and never looked back. With the Jaspers trailing 7-5 early in the first half, the Jaspers scored 15 consecutive points over the next seven minutes to take a commanding 20-7 lead. The Jaspers would never trail again.
Manhattan advances to their fifth ever NCAA tournament (1995, 1993, 1958, 1956). The field of 65 will be announced live on CBS on Sunday at 6 pm.
This was only the second time in MAAC history that both the men's and women's teams from the same school won their respective conference tournament titles. Loyola accomplished the feat in 1994.

MAAC CHAMPIONSHIP
Manhattan 69 - Fairfield 54
TRENTON - Moments after the Manhattan College basketball team captured the MAAC Tournament championship with a 69-54 win over Fairfield last night, a green-clad wave of fans stormed the court, turning the Sovereign Bank Arena into a mosh pit around coach Bobby Gonzalez' Jaspers.
Make that the NCAA-bound Jaspers.
Gonzalez emerged from the pile, running to high-five Brother Thomas Scanlon, the school's president. Almost in tears, Scanlon hugged Gonzalez and rasped , "Thank you Bobby."
Then Gonzalez clasped Athletic Director Bob Byrnes, and said, "Thanks for giving me a shot."
Four years ago that duo gave Gonzalez a chance. Last night he gave them a crown.
And Manhattan won its way into the NCAA Tournament in fitting fashion.
The Jaspers (23-6) beat Fairfield, the team that had knocked them out of last year's MAAC Tourney and snapped their nation-leading 15-game winning streak earlier this year.
Those same Stags were shaking the hand of Luis Flores, as he dribbled out the clock on a 22-point, 10-rebound masterpiece.
"So many things went through my mind," said the junior guard, who earned the Tourney MVP. "After losing in the first round, being criticized as someone that wasn't able to help the team get over the hump, I thought about so many things.
"So many emotions went through me, for a minute I felt like crying. Then I said I'm not going to because we're winning, and it makes me feel good. I was just enjoying myself and the fact we were MAAC champions."
The Jaspers won the tournament the same way they won the regular-season crown, with scoring from Flores, a big, game-changing run, and withering man-to-man defense that proved too much for Fairfield (19-11).
Despite the presence of Fairfield's towering Sudanese duo, cousins Deng Gai and Ajou Deng, the Jaspers held the Stags to 32.7 percent shooting to earn their first MAAC title since 1993 and their first trip to the Big Dance since 1995.
They upset Oklahoma that year, and they're just as confident now.
"We're going to be a dangerous opponent in the first round: Mark it down," said Gonzalez, who waded into the students' section and was carried around on their shoulders, as they chanted "Ten more years!"
Don't bank on it, Japer fans: Enjoy him before he moves on.
Trailing 7-5 after Oscar Garcia's layup, Manhattan ripped off a 15-0 run to seize command. In a TV timeout Gonzalez told Flores and his troops they needed to make a statement, "To let them know early." That's exactly what the Jaspers did.
Manhattan held Fairfield scoreless for the next 7:40, harassing the Stags into 0-for-7 shooting with five turnovers.
Flores knotted it with a jumper, and Dave Holmes (12 points, six rebounds) hit back-to-back baskets around drawing a charge from Gai. After Jason Benton ripped a rebound out of Deng's hands, Mike Konovelchick drained a 3-pointer.
Benton hit a layup and Flores a free throw, and little Kenny Minor capped the run with a 3-pointer to send the Stags limping into a timeout. Fairfield never got closer than six again.
