James Gandolfini, the New Jersey-bred actor who delighted audiences as mob boss Tony Soprano in “The Sopranos” has died following a massive heart attack in Italy, a source told the Daily News.
“Everyone is in tears,” the source close to the 51-year-old TV tough guy said. A press-shy celeb who got his start as a character actor and became famous relatively late in his career — thanks to his breakout role on “The Sopranos,” Gandolfini has largely avoided the spotlight since the last season of the beloved show aired in 2007.

Corning CEO honors the Company's "Class of '38" and Class of '63"
CORNING, N.Y., June 19, 2013 -- Corning Incorporated (NYSE:
GLW) today honored its retirees who began their careers with the company 50 and
75 years ago. The Retiree Service Award annual luncheon, held at the Corning Museum of Glass, recognized169
retirees for 50 years of service and four retirees for 75 years of service.
Wendell Weeks, Corning Incorporated’s chairman, chief executive officer and president, thanked the retirees for their service and for laying the foundation upon which the company continues to build.
“Corning’s industry leadership, track record of innovation, and values-based culture are a testament to the talent and dedication of people like you,” Weeks said. “Thank you for continuing the tradition of those who came before you, and setting an example for those who follow. And thank you for making this company a very special place.”
Weeks reflected on Corning’s history of innovation, noting some of the company’s achievements 50 and 75 years ago that continue to have an impact today. In 1938, Corning scientist Frank Hyde’s work with silicone resins was the basis for Dow Corning, which remains the world’s largest producer of silicones today. In 1963, Corning began its largest construction project to date to expand facilities at Science Park – which would soon be renamed Sullivan Park, in honor of Corning’s legendary research and development leader, Dr. Eugene Sullivan.
Turning to the present, Weeks told retirees that Corning is “strong, stable and growing.” Along with being financially healthy, Corning remains one of the world’s most productive research and development companies, Weeks said. He noted some of Corning’s new products introduced in the last 18 months, including ultra-slim, flexible Corning® Willow™ Glass; an all-optical wireless solution that improves network connections in buildings and arenas; and advanced cell-culture technology for pharmaceutical research.
“As we look ahead, we believe Corning’s future is very bright,” Weeks said.
Following Weeks’ remarks, each retiree from the “Class of ’63” was recognized and presented a check for $1,000. The retirees from the “Class of ’38” were also honored and presented a check for $2,500.

Alfred University hosts annual summer carillon series on four Tuesday evenings in July
Alfred
village will be ringing to the tunes of yet another Wingate Memorial
Summer Carillon Recital Series hosted by Alfred University (AU) and AU
Carillonneur Laurel Buckwalter throughout the month of July.
Admission is free for each performance by a guest carilloneur, beginning Tuesday, July 9 and continuing each Tuesday thereafter from 7 to 8 p.m. The performances will be held rain or shine at the University Carillon, located on upper campus between the Steinheim and Susan Howell Hall. Guests may sit in the lawn adjacent to the carillon and can feel free to bring lawn chairs or blankets to ease their listening experience. If inclement weather persists, Howell Hall will be open to visitors.
This summer’s featured carillonneurs and the dates of their programs are:
The first performer, Lens, began her carillon studies at Christ Church Cranbrook, Bloomfield Hills, MI. In 1971, Lens continued her studies at the University of Michigan and then, from 1972 to 1974, attended the Netherlands Carillon School in Amersfort where she studied with Leen’t Hart and played many recitals, including a series of five at the Palace in Amsterdam.
The Wingate Memorial Carillon Recital Series honors Dr. Ray Winthrop Wingate (1886-1968), who was a professor of music at Alfred University for 56 years. After the installation of the bells in 1937, he was appointed to the position of University carillonneur and held that title until his death, having arranged more than 5,000 selections for the carillon and composed nine suites.
The Carillon at Alfred University is made of a double row of rounded oak levers, called batons, and a pedal board tuned in the fifth octave. The carillon tower’s ground floor display has information on its historic legacy. Guests are welcome to climb the tower’s 69 steps to the top, enjoy the view, and watch the guest artists at work.

Free Remote Help for Smokers Expanded by Southern Tier Tobacco Awareness Coalition
Help will be available for smokers to quit in Steuben, Chemung and Schuyler Counties -
WHAT:
The Southern Tier Tobacco Awareness Coalition (STTAC), which includes members from Steuben, Chemung, and Schuyler Counties is launching a new Quit & Stay Quit Monday tobacco cessation program in July 2013. It includes:
• Weekly remote group counseling session via web conference. This provides rural residents with odd work hours to participate in a group counseling program at their convenience.
• Weekly tobacco quit tips sent to participants each Monday
STTAC’s Quit & Stay Quit Monday is supported by a grant from The Monday Campaigns, a non-profit public health initiative based in New York City, best known for the Meatless Monday campaign.
WHY:
“Many residents want to quit tobacco, but have a hard time finding availability to attend group sessions. They work in the evenings or are located hours away from where the group plans to meet. STTAC’s new remote Quit & Stay Quit Monday program will reach these smokers and help them on their journey to becoming tobacco-free.”
Beverly Butts, Public Health Education Coordinator for Steuben County
• Since 2011, the number of adults in the three counties who report smoking every day is 14.3%, which is higher than the regional average, which is 12.9%
• More than 40 % of tobacco users in all three counties want to quit.
• Using Monday as the day to quit will help smokers quit & stay quit:
- People already see Monday as a day for health
- Survey of 7,000 by the National Cancer Institute on their smokefree.gov website found that 53% of people picked Monday as their preferred day of the week to quit smoking
• STTAC’s new strategy will save the counties money: Typical New York tobacco cessation programs that include nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) can cost the state an estimated $343 - $440 per person, but STTAC’s virtual Quit & Stay Quit Monday program will only cost the county about $250 per person.
WHEN:
The program will begin in July 2013. Smokers in Steuben, Chemung, and Schuyler counties who want to join STTAC’s free remote Quit & Stay Quit Monday program can contact Beverly Butts at beverlyb@co.steuben.ny.us

LEGISLATURE APPROVES KEY PLANK OF SENATE’S ‘GROWN IN NEW YORK’ PLAN
The Legislature has unanimously approved legislation co-sponsored by Senator Tom O’Mara (R,C-Big Flats) to place a two-percent cap on annual agricultural land assessment increases and deliver long-awaited and badly needed property tax relief to state farmers.
The legislation (S.1952/A.165) was a cornerstone of “Grown in New York,” a comprehensive economic development strategy for New York Stateagriculture unveiled by O’Mara and his Senate Republican colleagues earlier this year. Property tax relief and other key provisions of “Grown in New York” have been high priorities for the state’s farmers this year.
“For too long, property tax increases have been crushing our family farms and driving too many of them out of business. New York farmers have long labored under the second highest property tax burden in America and
it’s been an unfair competitive disadvantage,” said O’Mara, a member of the Senate Agriculture Committee. “It’s about time we took this action and we’re hopeful that it will make a difference for our next generation of family farmers to help them grow, prosper and stay competitive.”
O’Mara said that farmers have seen rising land values drive up property taxes on farmland over the past several years, essentially doubling since 2006. The two-percent cap on ag assessment increases -- which has been a
top priority for the New York Farm Bureau -- was prompted by an alarming increase in farmers’ property taxes statewide. Currently, New York farmers pay $38.41 per acre in property taxes, according to Farm Credit East --
the second-highest rate in the country that, on average, accounts for 15% of a farm’s net income and puts state farmers at a clear competitive disadvantage.
O’Mara stressed that he and his colleagues will keep pushing other provisions of their “Grown in New York” plan, which they first introduced in March, that focuses on tax cuts, regulatory reform, market expansion and a series of other economic growth initiatives.
“We need to keep taking actions that keep our farmers competitive for the long haul. We can’t risk New York State’s farmers being taxed, regulated and priced out of business. The ‘Grown in New York’ plan is a
bold, common sense blueprint to keep New York a proud and strong agricultural state,” said O’Mara, who also serves as one of 10 members on the Legislature’s joint, bipartisan Commission on Rural Resources.
“Farming has been a mainstay of upstate New York’s culture and economy for centuries, and it remains the backbone of many of our communities. But the challenges and the competition are tougher than ever.”
Dean Norton, President of the New York Farm Bureau, said, “The passage of the 2% cap on agricultural assessments is welcome news on farms all across New York. Not one has been immune to the skyrocketing property taxes that make it more difficult to provide local food and products to
their communities. (This legislation) will go a long way to keep New York families on their farms.”
The legislation now goes to Governor Andrew Cuomo to be signed into law.

GOVERNOR CUOMO ANNOUNCES MAJOR AGREEMENT TO DRIVE GROWTH AT EASTMAN BUSINESS PARK
Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today announced the State and Eastman Kodak Company have reached a landmark agreement to ensure that Eastman Business Park (EBP), in Rochester, continues to be a magnet for new job, business and investment growth.
“Today’s agreement with Kodak on the future of Eastman Business Park is great news for the community of Rochester,” Governor Cuomo said. “Under this agreement, which addresses environmental, operations and management concerns, we are ensuring that EBP will remain a major and stable economic driver in the City, growing existing businesses, attracting new investments and creating jobs for the entire Finger Lakes region. I thank all the stakeholders for coming together for a compromise that works for New Yorkers.”
The agreement, reached today, provides a framework to resolve the issues that arose when Kodak, EBP’s owner, operator and largest employer, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in January of 2012. They included uncertainties about how EBP would be managed, how its environmental liabilities would be addressed and who would operate a utility network serving 35 companies that employ more than 6,000 people. The agreement is subject to bankruptcy court approval.

REED LETTER TO SENATE: JOIN HOUSE IN ACTING TO PREVENT STUDENT LOAN INTEREST RATE INCREASE
Rep. Tom Reed is leading a bipartisan letter to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell calling on the Senate to act to avoid the July 1st student loan interest rate hike. Without action from the Senate, millions of students can expect their loan interest rate to double to 6.8 percent. More than 50 Members of Congress are joining Reed in pressing the Senate to act immediately.
“Our letter is a call to action for the Senate to pass legislation to lower student loan interest rates long term and avoid the July 1st interest rate spike,” Reed said. “The House being the only body to pass a bipartisan proposal, Republican and Democrat Members in the House are asking the Senate to move to pass legislation immediately so that we can work together to prevent the July 1st rate spike. Now is the time to take care of our students and lower their loan rates. Now is the time for the Senate to act.”
More than 50 Members of Congress signed onto Reed’s letter, including all of the Democrat Members who voted in favor of the House-passed bill.
With two failed votes in the Senate on its own proposals, Reed said he hopes their lack of solution is not a sign the Senate will move on without a fix. “The clock is ticking and we stand ready to work with our Senate colleagues on both sides of the aisle to make sure students do not see their rates double in less than two weeks. Let’s stop kicking the can down the road and get our students the long-term, fair fix they deserve.”
Reed voted to lower student loan interest rates in the House’s bipartisan Smarter Solutions for Students Act passed last month. The bill would lower rates long-term and avoid the July 1st student loan interest rate hike where rates are set to double to 6.8 percent. The bill also moves student loans to a market-based rate – a policy proposed by the President in his 2014 Budget.
“It is only fair we adopt policies that take setting student loan interest rates out of the hands of politicians,” Reed continued. “Utilizing a market-based approach not only makes sense but reaffirms to students that they will not have to play this waiting game next year. It is just not fair to put students in this position.”
“Our priority needs to be preventing the July 1st spike mandated by law if Congress does not act. Since we all agree student loan rates should not go up, we’re showing students we care by pressing the Senate to pass policy before the end of the month. We need to Senate to come to the negotiating table.”
Rep. Reed spoke about standing up for students on the House floor this week. View his comments here.

DiNAPOLI RELEASES FISCAL STRESS SCORES FOR LOCAL COMMUNITIES- ALLEGANY COUNTY GOVERNMENTS ESCAPE THE LIST
Two dozen communities in New York have been designated as fiscally stressed under State Comptroller Thomas P. DiNapoli’s new Fiscal Stress Monitoring System. The list includes eight counties, three cities and 13 towns.
“The challenges facing local governments have reached a critical point and these fiscal stress scores should serve as a wakeup call,” said DiNapoli. “Taxpayers, local officials and state policymakers need an objective analysis to help them understand the economic and budgetary challenges facing our communities. My office’s monitoring system was designed to do just that. We have identified local governments from every region of this state that are facing some level of fiscal stress and presented them with a realistic picture of their financial condition.

University removed from censure list by American Association of University Professors
ST. BONAVENTURE, N.Y., June 18, 2013 — Members of the American Association of University Professors voted unanimously Saturday to remove St. Bonaventure University from its censure list.
The university’s censure stemmed from the administration’s termination of 18 tenured professors during a period of financial exigency that began in 1993. St. Bonaventure had been on the list for 17 years.
The AAUP voted to remove St. Bonaventure from the censure list after the university completed a lengthy process to amend procedures to be followed should such circumstances ever arise again.
The university’s Board of Trustees and faculty agreed to establish a special assignment of trustee participants so that the Handbook Committee could expedite its work. A two-year study of the Faculty Handbook resulted in the needed changes.
Votes by trustees, faculty and members of the local chapter of the AAUP all confirmed the amendments. Finally, two representatives of the national AAUP organization visited campus to conclude the review.
During the past decade, provosts Skip Saal and Michael Fischer promoted pursuit of this goal. Affirmations of academic freedom were approved by the board and a study of university governance that was completed in 2003 helped establish more awareness of shared governance responsibilities between board, administration and faculty.
Both Jack McGinley and Ray Dee, who served as board chairs during this period, met frequently with faculty leaders on a variety of issues.
“Relationships between faculty and the Board of Trustees have improved dramatically,” said Dr. Steven Nuttall, associate professor of philosophy at SBU, who was also present at the AAUP annual meeting in 1996 when St. Bonaventure was censured. The rebuke by the association was effective in this case, he said.
Sr. Margaret Carney, O.S.F., university president, said, “We are happy to have completed this task and I thank all who gave outstanding service on the Handbook Committee. We have been eager to see this day for a long time. The censure was a black eye. The current faculty and administration want to function at a ‘best practice’ level and the AAUP sees and affirms that by their vote.”
SENATE APPROVES PROHIBITION ON USE OF PUBLIC ASSISTANCE BENEFITS
Albany, N.Y., June 18—The New York State Senate today
approved legislation
co-sponsored by Senator Tom O’Mara (R-C, Big Flats), the “Public Assistance
Integrity Act,” to prohibit public assistance recipients from using their
cash assistance benefit to purchase tobacco, alcoholic beverages or lottery
tickets, and to combat other abuses of the public welfare system.
“State taxpayers demand and deserve a zero-tolerance policy when it
involves welfare fraud, abuse and waste. Welfare is intended as
short-term, temporary assistance to help those in need address basic,
fundamental responsibilities for their families until they can find work,
get back on their feet and provide for themselves. Most individuals and
families utilize the assistance responsibly,” said O’Mara. “But we still
hear far too many reports about abuses.”
Welfare recipients receive both food stamps and cash assistance, each of
which is frequently administered through the EBT (Electronic Benefit
Transfer) debit card. Recipients can utilize cash assistance to purchase
essential items that cannot be obtained with food stamps, such as paper
products and school supplies, and to help defray the cost of housing and
energy expenses.
However, current state law does not explicitly prohibit recipients from
utilizing their cash allowance to purchase items like cigarettes, alcohol
or lottery tickets. The Senate legislation (S.966) O’Mara co-sponsors,
which is sponsored by Senator Tom Libous (R-Binghamton), would prohibit
these purchases as well as prohibit the withdrawal and use of cash
assistance funds from ATMs at specific locations including liquor stores,
casinos and adult entertainment establishments.
Supporters of the legislation note that federal law enacted early last year
requires states to take this action by 2014 or risk the loss of federal
funding, which would cost New York State more than $100 million.
Specifically, the federal “Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of
2012” requires states to limit electronic benefit transactions in locations
including liquor stores, casinos and adult clubs by welfare recipients
before February 2014. If New York fails to comply, the State will forfeit
$120 million in federal Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF)
funds. New York spends over $2.7 billion each year administering cash
assistance.
Several states have already passed legislation to enact restrictions on the
use of public assistance funds, including Arizona, California, Colorado,
Indiana, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Missouri, Pennsylvania and Washington.

He was a veteran, a long time member of the Dyke Street Engine Company in Wellsville, a neighborhood watchdog and most importantly...a friend. Family and friends mourn tonight. Calling hours will be at Mulholland-Crowell Funeral Home in Wellsville Thursday afternoon with a funeral on Friday. We'll have his obituary as soon as the family can offer it.

State Agencies Encourage Horse Owners to Vaccinate their Horses Against Diseases
State Agriculture Commissioner Darrel J. Aubertine, State Health Commissioner Nirav R. Shah and State Gaming Commission Acting Director Robert Williams today urged horse owners across New York State to vaccinate their horses against Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE) and West Nile Virus (WNV). In 2012, two cases of EEE were reported in horses in New York State, as well as seven WNV cases. No confirmed cases of either disease have been reported thus far in 2013.
“Every year in New York, cases of Eastern Equine Encephalitis and West Nile Virus pop up in horses across the state – diseases which are largely preventable,” said Commissioner Aubertine. “Good prevention programs are a key component to any animal health plan and I encourage horse owners across New York to take the necessary precautions and vaccinate their horses against these diseases today.”
While it is preferable to vaccinate horses against these diseases in the spring before the mosquitoes that transmit them are active, early summer is not too late, since New York often has mosquito activity into the month of November. Vaccines for EEE and WNV can be effective for six to twelve months, and horses should be re-vaccinated at least annually. In an area where the diseases occur year round, many veterinarians recommend vaccinations every six months. For the vaccine to be effective, it must be handled and administered properly, prior to an anticipated increase in mosquito activity in a local area. For these reasons, state veterinarian David Smith recommends that the vaccines be administered by a veterinarian.
Other prevention methods include eliminating standing water breeding sites for mosquitoes, using insect repellents and removing animals from mosquito-infested areas during peak biting times, usually from dusk to dawn. In addition, water in water troughs should be changed at least twice a week to discourage mosquito breeding.

Upstate Residents Strongly Opposed (52-38%) to Fracking
Statement from the New York Water Rangers
“Despite a multi-million dollar propaganda and lobbying campaign, the fracking industry’s empty promises continue to fall on deaf ears in upstate New York. Today’s Siena poll proves once again that the more people know about the fracking
industry’s track record, the more concerned they are. And no one has
paid closer attention than the people whose communities would be
directly impacted.
Governor Cuomo and Senate co-Presidents Klein and Skelos
should listen to upstate residents. New Yorkers want the state to
officially hit the pause button with a moratorium that ensures any
decision is based solely on the science of fracking’s
health impacts. We believe if Senate leaders get out of the way and
allow a simple up or down vote, the moratorium will pass with bipartisan
support from upstate Senators.”
