Fetterman releases one of best campaign videos of the season
BY DONALD GILLILAND dgilliland@tribweb.com
“It must have felt like the end of the world…”
So begins the first campaign commercial for John Fetterman, mayor of Braddock near Pittsburgh and the third Pennsylvania Democrat to enter the race for U.S. Senate.
It’s one of the best campaign videos you’re likely to see this season.
The first few phrases of the voice-over are exactly what you’d expect from a campaign spot aimed at introducing the candidate’s back story – then it’s revealed the voice-over is no professional narrator, but Fetterman himself … and the unspoken message is driven home: this dude is totally authentic, the real deal.
And it sure doesn’t hurt that Fetterman’s story – and Braddock’s – is the stuff of film: Harvard graduate moves to a gritty impoverished old steel town and helps it make a comeback – a destination for artists, small businessmen and dreamers and a place where people want to live again.
The story is so good, the campaign video does not have to be heavy-handed… the uplifting musical score is barely audible (but it’s there).
The video achieves a rare thing: it feels real, unscripted.

Positive Vibes From Bradford City Police Department
City of Bradford Police
We want to take a second and share something positive. Today a woman and her daughter were in a local restaurant when one of our officers came in to get lunch. While the officer was ordering, the daughter walked up and paid for the officer's meal. They insisted when the officer politely declined because they wanted to show support for Police Officers. What they didn't know was, the officer had been having a busy day and was still upset about a prior call involving a child. The officer was quickly reminded of the appreciation people have and why he does the job. We want to thank these two residents for their kindness.
We also want to thank everyone out there that supports us and other officers through out the world.
Help us spread the word of our thanks by sharing and liking this. We want to spread the positive vibes.

William Vogan McCloskey of Bradford, PA
 |
| William Vogan McCloskey |
 |
| WWII Vet |
The McCloskey family moved to Bradford when Mr. McCloskey was a small child. He was a member of the First United Methodist Church of Bradford, the Boy Scouts, earning the rank of Eagle Scout, and participated in many sports including winning the title Jr. Champion tennis player. He was also an avid skier through young adulthood and claimed to have helped to build a ski jump in the area.
After graduating from Bradford High School in 1937, Mr. McCloskey worked for Loblaws in Salamanca. He married the former Martha E. Dawson of Salamanca, N.Y., October 17, 1942.
Mr. McCloskey served in the US Navy during World War II in the Pacific (Hawaii, Leyte Gulf, the Philippines, and Guam), on the USS Louisville. Toward the end of the war, he was based in San Francisco (Vallejo, CA) where his wife, Martha, joined him in April, 1945. He often remarked on the good times they had together there, whether walking through Fisherman’s Wharf or having dinner at the Top of the Mark.
After his honorable discharge from the US Navy in September 1945, Mr. McCloskey began working for the New York Telephone Company in Salamanca, NY. He relocated several times with the phone company to Wellsville, N.Y., Olean. N.Y. and Arcade, N.Y as Wire Chief in Arcade. After 37 years with the New York Telephone Company, he retired as Central Office Foreman (responsible for numerous offices in Western New York) on April 1, 1982; his wife Martha’s birthday. He said it was her birthday gift that year.
After his wife, Martha died in 1991; he married the former Ann Starkweather (Cloud, McDevitt) in August, 1992 and returned to Bradford, P.A.
Mr. McCloskey was active all his life. He enjoyed fishing, boating, hunting both deer and turkey and he learned to play golf shortly before retirement. He said his goal was to play bogey golf, but most times, his scores were better than bogey. He was a member of the Arcade Conservation Society and the Rod and Gun Club. He was awarded many league trap shooting trophies for hi-score, hi-handicap score and Sr. hi-score. He volunteered to stock creeks and streams with fish for the NYS DEC. He was an amateur photographer taking great pride in his photographs and building his own darkroom. He enjoyed traveling, especially a trip to Alaska by car and trailer with his family.
He was generous with his time with his family but he was also generous with his time in the communities he lived in. He was an active member of the Arcade Lions club as well as the Bradford Area Lions Club. He especially enjoyed delivering baskets of food at Thanksgiving and Christmas to those in need. He was an elected member of the Pioneer Central (Arcade Central), school board for 17 years serving as Board President for four. During his service on the board, he helped facilitate a merger of three schools to establish Pioneer Central School; two schools, a high school and a middle school were built in less than seven years and continue to serve the communities today. He was a marching band booster at Pioneer, walking with the band at countless parades, picking up batons, drumsticks, flags, or assisting with a band member who became ill because of the heat; he and his wife, Martha, chaperoned many band trips. He continued his involvement with the Boy Scouts.
After his retirement from the telephone company he became a member of the Telephone Pioneers of America, helping other retirees or retiree’s spouses understand their benefits. He also served on the Wyoming County Board of Mental Health. He was a member of the AARL, the national association for Amateur Radio, as well as the Pioneer Radio Operators Society (The PROS), and the McKean County Amateur Radio Club. He was known to make contact with loved ones in various countries after natural disasters; in particular Mexico and South America for exchange students so they could learn their families were safe. He enjoyed making contacts around the world. He taught Morse code and helped many obtain their HAM radio operators license. He would join McKean County Club members when they would go to the Bradford Children’s home to teach them how to operate a HAM radio and how to make contacts with other HAM radio enthusiasts.
Mr. McCloskey was a 72 year member of the Great Valley Masonic Lodge and the Scottish Rite Valley of Coudersport Consistory he was also a member of the Arcade VFW.
When he returned to Bradford, Mr. McCloskey was one of the founding members and by-laws co-signers of the Bradford Area High School Alumni Association. He was elected Vice President at the first dinner meeting held in June, 2004. He wrote and published the newsletter for many years and was the initial promoter of the BAHS Alumni website.
“I’ve always thought him to be a great man and well loved,” said one of his daughters. “And listening to old and new friends speak of him, confirms this. He was witty and engaging. People opened up to him. I miss him.”
Mr. McCloskey was pre-deceased by his wife, Martha, in 1991, his wife, Ann, in 2013, and his sister Katherine (Kay) Gorton in 2004.
He is survived by his daughters, Carol A. Foster (Gerald), Cynthia S. McCloskey (Gordimir Magdic), granddaughters, Shannon R. (Foster) Larson (Timothy), and Jamee H. Foster and great grandchildren, Emilee Martha Larson and Colin Timothy Larson as well as several nieces and a nephew.

Penn State DuBois Celebrates 80 Years
 |
| The last of eight monarch butterflies to be released for the Penn State DuBois 80th Birthday Party is seen floating above faculty, staff and friends of the campus. Left to right are, Ross Kester, Mark Hatch, Carolyn Jacobson, Keely Roen, Charles Snapp, State Representative Matt Gabler, George Heigel, Mark Feemer, and Chancellor Melanie Hatch. |
State Representative Matt Gabler joined other guests including alumni, donors, students, faculty and staff. Gabler delivered a congratulatory letter to Chancellor Melanie Hatch and shared remarks with the crowd.
"This institution has been a driving force for our communities; this campus has been such an important part of our region," Gabler said. "It is my honor to congratulate Penn State DuBois on proudly providing eight decades of quality education to our communities."
Those eight decades began on September 18, 1935, when the DuBois Undergraduate Center of the Pennsylvania State College first opened its doors in the old Hubert Street School in DuBois. Hatch shared more of the campus' history with guests, thanking friends of the campus for providing support that has allowed Penn State DuBois to thrive through the decades. Hatch said, "A great deal has changed since the campus first opened its doors, but one thing that has remained the same is the fact that this institution continues to serve our communities thanks to our alumni, donors, students, faculty and staff, who have made a commitment to the success of Penn State DuBois. And each of you make that commitment because you believe in the need for quality education in your community."
The family of John E. DuBois donated the DuBois Mansion and grounds to Penn State in 1937, at which time the DUC, as the center came to be known, moved into the old mansion. The campus remains on the DuBois grounds today.
But as the 1940's dawned, Hatch Explained, growing turmoil in Europe and the Pacific eventually drew a majority of America's young men to serve in World War II. It was a different world then, and most college students were young men. This left the old mansion halls virtually empty of students, as most of them laid down their books, and picked up their rifles to head off to war. The DuBois Center was closed in 1944.
Once again, however, the community stepped in to keep the institution alive. Local leaders like Patrick Swift, for whom the campus' Swift Building is named, went on to form the DuBois Educational Foundation to support the center. The DEF remains today the campus' advisory board, and is the namesake of another one of the buildings on campus.
When the veterans of World War II returned, they brought with them the G.I. Bill, and enrollment soared to what was unprecedented levels at the time.
Hatch went on to fill in the more recent history of the campus, explaining that those pioneer alumni from the 1930's and 40's handed down their appreciation for Penn State DuBois, from generation to generation, forming a support network that has helped to keep the campus a center for education in Central Pennsylvania. She said, "A lot really has changed since 1935.
We have state-of-the-art classrooms and labs, world class faculty, and staff members, and alumni who have gone on to find success in the world's most significant industries. Loyalty and friendship among those who learned here, however, has not changed in the least. An appreciation for the importance of education is still here today, as it has always been. And that's why I'm sure in another 80 years, another chancellor will be here expressing their appreciation."
Today, students at Penn State DuBois can complete one of 16 degrees programs offered in entirety at DuBois; or they can complete the first two years of course work for nearly 160 Penn State degrees that can be earned at other locations throughout the state.

Kinzua Knitaway Registration Open.
The Warren County Fiber Artists are holding an event to bring a fun and educational day of fiber related activities to Warren County. The third Kinzua Knit-Away (KKA) will be held at the First United Methodist Church, 200 Market Street, Warren, PA on Friday and Saturday, October 9th and 10th, 2015. A weekend of yarn related classes, a shoppers market full of yarn and a meet and greet with knitting author Jane Bigelow are all planned for this two-day event.
Class instructors are well-known local and regional individuals with a desire to share their knowledge about the craft they love. Knit-Away classes range from various techniques such as mitered squares, lace knitting, stranded knitting, hula hoop weaving, learning to knit continental style, thrumming, and an Oops class for learning how to fix errors. Class size is limited in number of participants to allow for one on one instruction, and detailed instruction for the entire group. Two classes will be all day, morning classes range from 3 to 4 hours with 2 hour classes in the afternoon to allow plenty of time for shopping!
In addition to Jane Bigelow, we also feature Linda Voss Plummer, a well-known knitting teacher who has taught at Pittsburgh Knit and Crochet, run knitting retreats in Coudersport and as artsyknits she publishes beautiful original designs on ravelry.com. She also has patterns featured on the cascade yarns website and in the Noro magazine. Also featured is Joan DeBolt, a knitting teacher for over 25 years. Joan is a self-taught knitter whose passion is reflected in her love of Elizabeth Zimmerman.
She has knit alongside Elizabeth and Meg Swanson and has contributed patterns to Cottage Creations. All our teachers share a deep passion with knitting and other fiber arts; these wonderful teachers include Shirani Straker of Cultured Purl in Erie, as well as Brian How and Ellen Cooper, also of Erie. Taryn Barnett, owner of the Yarn Vault in Meadville who loves teaching knitting, Radka Chamberlin and Barb Tracey round out our stellar teachers. For more information on what they are teaching at our Knit-Away follow the links below.
Shopping is the second most important (maybe the 1st?) part of any fiber related event. Knit-Away organizers have lined up a variety of vendors for the ‘market’ which will be open from 10am to 5pm on Saturday. The marketplace provides shoppers an opportunity to examine new yarn and products, visit a variety of local and regional fiber related vendors in a single location and enjoy a relaxed shopping experience. If you cannot attend the classes, you can come just for the marketplace for a $3.00 admission fee payable at the door.
The First United Methodist Church, Pittsburgh Project Committee will prepare and serve a wonderful soup and sandwich lunch for the event, with a percentage of the lunch proceeds benefiting their outreach programs.
Event registration is $65.00 which includes the meet and greet event Friday evening, October 9, 2015 with knitting author Jane Bigelow.

Find Treasure on West Creek Rails to Trails
A husband and wife team from Elk County have adopted the West Creek Rails to Trails and so far have placed 23 geocaches along a 3 mile section of the trail. The gps coordinates for the hiding places can be found at www.geocaching.com under the name WCRT.
Michael Groll credits his wife, Kimberly with coming up with the idea. Between the two of them, they have 7 years traveling the United States and five countries uncovering 2300 caches. Many times in the last year they traveled through Emporium. “Every time we drove past the new Rails to Trails on our way to get caches, she would look over at it and ask why there aren't any caches there. Then late last year, she made the decision that we are going to do this trail,” said Groll. Right now the caches are confined to a three mile section from Moore Hill Road heading east toward Emporium. Plans are in the work for another Geocache team to expand the caches west to Truman. The group hopes to have others place caches throughout the planned 18 mile trail connecting St Marys and Emporium.
Groll says many local geocache hunters have found the caches, but recently the trail is attracting geocache enthusiasts from outside of the region. Geocaching is an activity enjoyed by millions of people worldwide. Groll credits the hobby with finding his bride. “ I met my wife through Geocaching and our wedding was even published as a geocaching event. For some, this hobby comes and goes. But for myself, I'm still enjoying every adventure and at this point, I couldn't imagine geocaching not being part of my life.”

Thompson Supports Measure to Defund Planned Parenthood
“This is a matter of the law, even for those who do not share my view that life begins at conception”
Washington, DC – Congressman Glenn ‘GT’ Thompson (PA-05) today voted in favor of legislation that would prevent federal funding from going to Planned Parenthood, in addition to supporting legislation that would protect babies born alive following an attempted abortion.
“Like so many other people across our region and the nation, I was shocked to watch the videos showing Planned Parenthood officials talk about selling the body parts of aborted babies, which is illegal. This is a matter of the law, even for those who do not share my view that life begins at conception.” Thompson said. “There are many alternatives available in support of women’s health and taxpayer dollars should not subsidize organizations that act in such a callous manner,” Thompson added.
Thompson is a co-sponsor of H.R. 3134, the Defund Planned Parenthood Act of 2015. The second piece of legislation is H.R. 3504, the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, which would place severe criminal penalties and a civil right of action in place to enforce the law when babies are born alive following an abortion attempt.
Both bills now move to the Senate for further consideration.

Governor Wolf: Republicans Put Special Interests Above Our Children, Schools & PA's Future
Harrisburg Republicans have made it clear that they put right-wing special interests above our children, our schools, and Pennsylvania's future.
That is absolutely unacceptable.
It's time for Republicans to work on a budget that asks big oil and gas to pay their fair share so we can fund schools for a change.
Thank you,
Tom Wolf for Governor
