Two early childhood exhibits to open at museum of science Two special early childhood exhibits, Curious George: Let’s Get Curious! and Science + You will both pay a visit to the Buffalo Museum of Science (BMS) February 7 through May 10, 2015. Presented locally by GEICO with education support from Doodle Bugs Children Centers, both exhibits are included with general museum admission and free for BMS Members and children under two. Curious George: Let’s Get Curious The insatiable curiosity of Curious George – the little monkey who has captured the imagination and hearts of millions of children and adults for almost 75 years – comes to life in Curious George: Let’s Get Curious! Sponsored nationally by 3M, the adorable exhibit introduces young children to Curious George’s world and leads visitors on a fun, meaningful interactive math, science and engineeringbased adventure. Based on the familiar characters in H.A. and Margret Rey’s classic stories published by Houghton Mifflin, the Curious George exhibit inspires young children’s natural curiosity as they explore early science, math and engineering through hands-on interactive play. The immersive exhibit environment takes place in the neighborhood where Curious George lives with his friend, The Man with the Yellow Hat. Visitors will recognize familiar characters and places featured in the classic stories and the new

television series produced by Imagine Entertainment, WGBH Boston and Universal Studios Family Productions on PBS KIDS. The exhibit’s content is based on educational standards developed by Minnesota Children’s Museum and an expert advisory panel to the PBS KIDS series, as well as national science and math standards for young children. Designed, developed and built by Minnesota Children’s Museum in partnership with Universal Studios Consumer Products Group, Curious George: Let’s Get Curious! began touring in September 2007. Inside the Exhibit Apartment Building Operate wheels to move George on pulleys from window to window. Climb the fire escape and climb inside to play with color, light and shadow. Sidewalk Produce Stand Play customer or salesperson and explore shape, sorting, weighing and counting with fruit and vegetables. Construction Site Climb into the construction trailer and design a building, then make use of a bounty of building materials and get to work constructing different structures and using machines to move materials. City Park Enjoy the urban green space: rest or give a hug to a full-size George and take a picture! Our youngest visitors will enjoy our busy wall activities for babies and toddlers.

Two special early childhood exhibits, Curious George: Let’s Get Curious! and Science + You will both pay a visit to the Buffalo Museum of Science. Mini Golf Use pipes, ramps, funnels, turntables, bumpers and force to experiment with physics and engineering as you putt through three holes of mini golf. Space Rocket Climb into the rocket Curious George took on his space adventure! Catch a glimpse of George in his space suit then take a picture from the control station and

email it home. Farm Take a vacation to the country and visit the farm. Experience cause and effect and use wind power to move yard art like whirligigs, windmills, windsocks, and wind chimes. Build your own whirligig and care for the farm animals. Museum Within the Museum Learn new things about

George when you visit the Museum within the Museum. Follow H.A. and Margaret Rey’s work, the escape from France to safety during World War II that saved the Curious George manuscript, and Curious George throughout the years. Science + You Sponsored by the AbbVie Foundation, the Science + You exhibit offers a child-sized laboratory where children can explore how scientists impact health and wellness. Through hands-on, interactive machinery, processes and technology, Science + You demonstrates the role science plays in keeping the body healthy. A demonstration area of the exhibit also will allow visiting scientists and educators to perform fun and interactive scientific experiments appropriate for young children. The exhibit was created by Kohl Children’s Museum of Greater Chicago, located in Glenview, Illinois. Since its debut there in 2011, the exhibit has traveled to museums in Washington, D.C. and San Francisco, as well as internationally to Germany and Brazil. “The Science + You exhibit is designed after research labs at AbbVie,” said Stephanie Bynum, vice president of programs at Kohl Children’s Museum. “We consulted with their scientists to find effective ways to communicate scientific discovery.” “We are thrilled to be a part of this unique and exciting exhibit that allows children to become young scientists,” said Tracie Haas, divisional

vice president for corporate responsibility at AbbVie. “Using the hands-on tools, machines and processes in the exhibit will give them a better understanding of how scientists work, which will hopefully inspire an interest in science and the pursuit of future science careers.” Entering the Exhibit Children will enter the exhibit as if entering a reallife laboratory. At the first station they can pretend to wash their hands, wipe their feet and shower before they put on their white lab coat and learn how important it is for scientists to work in a clean environment. Antibodies Demonstrating how antibodies act in the body, this component of the exhibit offers children the opportunity to understand a complex process through play by transferring germs (magnetic balls) from the body to a “white blood cell” tube using a moveable antibody. Glove Box Children can use a glovebox, a sealed container used by real-life scientists, with gloves built into the sides allowing one to manipulate objects safely. Demonstrating how scientists use a glovebox to contain materials as well as protect themselves, the children will wear thick gloves to measure substances using beakers, funnels and other lab equipment.

Wegmans’ $50,000 donation to Food Bank of WNY is a gift for affected agencies In the aftermath of the surprise November storm that crippled many communities, the Food Bank of Western New York will use a $50,000 donation from Wegmans, and funds from other donors designated toward disaster relief efforts, to procure and distribute food in areas hardest hit by the storm. More than 30 member agencies were heavily impacted by the recent storm, including those in the areas of Cheektowaga, Lackawanna, Orchard Park, Silver Creek, Springville, South Buffalo and West Seneca. These funds will be used to replenish the shelves at the Food Bank and designated member agencies. Each agency will receive monies ranging from $1,600 for small agencies to $3,400 for large agencies to acquire food from the Food Bank and distribute it to local families in our community. Collectively, these member agencies distribute an average of 179,480 meals to 24,000 people each month. “Knowing the damage that the storm caused, we reached out to the Food Bank of Western New York and learned they could use our help,” said Michele Mehaffy, Consumer Affairs Manager at Wegmans Food Markets. “We are grateful for the opportunity to help restock local pantries devastated by the storm. As a longtime supporter of the Food Bank of WNY, we will continue to help in its mission, providing hunger relief in

Cattaraugus, Chautauqua, Erie and Niagara counties.” During the height of the storm the Food Bank of WNY was called upon by New York State to deliver food to an agency in Lackawanna where members of the National Guard delivered packages of food to families in need. In an effort to assist the Food Bank in replenishing its supply of food, Governor Andrew Cuomo encouraged companies and residents to donate. HSBC Bank responded with a donation of $25,000 for disaster relief food and WKBW-TV 7 and the Scripps Howard Foundation donated $5,000 and created a 7 Cares for the Community campaign encouraging viewers to donate on line to the Food Bank or at any First Niagara Bank. First Niagara donated $2,500 and customers added more than $1,000 in donations. Citizens Bank also donated $3,000. “We are grateful to all who donated to the disaster relief efforts and we are extremely grateful to Wegmans. They care, and it genuinely shows in their yearround commitment to our community,” said Marylou Borowiak, President and CEO of the Food Bank of WNY. “These monies will have a significant impact in assisting our local families in need.” Darlene Sery of the Catholic Charities Food Pantries said, “We are grateful for the assistance we received from the Food Bank during the

November storm. Their staff worked around the clock to get food to our agencies so we could distribute to our clients in need. Because of the hard work and the dedication of the Food Bank staff, we were able to provide our clients with food in a timely manner. We now thank them for this opportunity to restock our shelves.” “This is such wonderful news,” added Linette Crelly of the Southern Tier Food Pantry at Trading Post in Springville. “Hundreds of families in our service area who live paycheck to paycheck lost many days of work and pay due to the storm. This is very difficult, especially during the holiday season. We have seen a much larger number of first time clients coming to us for help. This food will help us meet the growing number of clients we serve. We thank everyone for this donation.” “What a blessing these disaster relief funds will be to our clients,” said Brent Doyle of the Southtowns Christian Center’s Feed My Sheep food pantry.

Museum - From Front Exploring how scientists use machines to mix liquids and solids, this component of the exhibit demonstrates how different types of equipment function. Children can see the machines in action and can also manually mix and separate liquids and solids themselves. Magnification Area This exhibit features a specialized Wentzscope and video microscopes that magnify objects on a large video screen, allowing younger children to compare and contrast an array of natural and man-made items

up close. Healthy Lifestyle Science has shown us that we need a balanced lifestyle to stay healthy. This exhibit component emphasizes the importance of nutrition, exercise and rest with an interactive activity. The exhibit features an outline of a human body with a hollow center. Children place puzzle pieces representing various forms of nutrition, exercise and rest into a hollow outlined body. When a healthy balance of all the components is achieved, children hear a congratulatory message. Test Kitchen In the test kitchen children

are challenged to make a ‘healthy soup’ choosing their own combination of appropriate ingredients. Teaching children the importance of a balanced diet, this exhibit has stations with soup pots that can hold up to six ingredients. Children pick the ingredients from the five food groups. The burner under their soup pot lights up when they’ve selected the correct balance of healthy ingredients. Science Reflection Children can share their scientific thoughts and reflections after experiencing in the exhibit. A variety of images, drawings and terminology

from the exhibit is provided that children can use to create their own collage. A display wall allows children to share their collage reflection with the public. Grease pencils will also be provided for children to write down their impressions. Admission to both Curious George: Let’s Get Curious and Science + You are included with general museum admission ($10 adults, $9 seniors, $8 children 2-17). Both exhibits will be open during normal museum hours of 10am to 4pm seven days a week. For more information on either exhibit, visit http://www. sciencebuff.org/exhibits/.

Empowering parents to manage their kids’ wireless use ( N A P S I ) — To d a y ’s tech-savvy generation quickly adapts and enjoys using mobile devices such as cell phones, smartphones and tablets to communicate, learn and play, anytime and anywhere. To help parents manage their kids’ usage and encourage responsible behavior, CTIA—The Wireless Association, which represents the wireless industry, developed GrowingWireless.com, a website developed by parents in the wireless industry for parents who need easy-tounderstand information and resources. Updated regularly, the website offers examples of situations and how parents may want to respond; for example, what parents can do if their child is being bullied, how to protect their privacy and how to manage their kids’ monthly usage so they don’t go over the allotted monthly limits in the Dollars and

Sense section. Visitors to the website will also see information on how to identify and prevent sexting and how to protect kids’ personal information in the Privacy and Security section. GrowingWireless.com also offers a parent’s “tool kit� with a list of parental control tools that are offered by wireless carriers and manufacturers. Parental control tools help parents manage and monitor their kids’ wireless usage. The website also provides information about federal and state laws that help protect kids when they use mobile products and services. Setting family rules is one of the most important and effective steps that parents can take to help kids be responsible wireless users. GrowingWireless.com offers a sample template to help families make their own decisions about what

is acceptable wireless behavior for their kids, and the consequences if those rules are broken. Once agreed upon, these rules should be posted in a central location, such as the refrigerator, and periodically revisited as kids age and technology evolves. What is appropriate for a 12-year-old may be different than the rules for a 13-year-old. By empowering parents with accessible information, they will be able to proactively educate themselves and their kids to solve problems before they arise. By teaching kids about wireless common sense and responsible use today, they will be better prepared to harness wireless increasingly for education and will be better equipped for jobs in other sectors such as utilities, health care, government services and public safety.

Local sports South skipper optimistic after Billies’ first loss of season

By Melissa Brawdy SPORTS REPORTER

Losing is never fun, but Williamsville South was handed just its first loss of the season on Saturday (Jan. 3) in a 61-50 defeat to Aquinas at a tournament hosted by South. Still, coach Gabe Michael was optimistic about his team and the way the Billies played. “We didn’t execute as well as we’d like to execute, but there were a lot of positives, not negatives,” Michael said. “Your first loss is going to come eventually.” Rebounds, injuries and foul trouble were South’s u n d o i n g o n S a t u r d a y. Aquinas is a strong team as it is, and the Billies fell just short of doing enough to win. Michael was still impressed with his team’s competitiveness. “That’s probably the best team we’ll play all year, so we hung with them,” Michael said. “We had our

chances to win, and you take some positives out of that, but you’d love to finish the game. We got out rebounded by 10, which is not great for us, and I think that really contributed to us losing the game.” Kam Varner, one of the team’s starting forwards, only played four minutes due to injury. Greg Dolan, the starting point guard, had his minutes limited by foul trouble. But Michael still liked the way he played when he was in. “Greg Dolan did a really nice job,” Michael said. “When he was in there, he was beating their pressure, getting some really great shots, and he did a really nice job as well.” Other key players included Sam Castronova, who had 21 points, one assist, and seven rebounds, and Matt Foster, who had 11 points and seven rebounds. “Sam Castronova played great for us,” Michael said of the senior, who led the Billies with 117 points through seven games at press time. “He had to play more point guard than he normally does because our starting point guard was in foul trouble all game, and he handled that very well.”

Above anything else, Michael wanted to focus on the positives from Saturday’s game. He saw the things that his team struggled with and how some of it was out of the Billies’ control. He also saw how they stepped up and did their best in spite of the circumstances. “We didn’t get enough rebounds, and that was tough for us to overcome,” Michael said. “They’re a strong, physical team. But I thought a lot of guys stepped in, played good minutes, and as a team I thought we handled the pressure very well.” The biggest disappointment was the fact that S o u t h h a s n ’t w o n t h e tournament, which it hosts annually, in three years. “We haven’t won that tournament in three years so it’d be nice to win it,” Michael said. “But at the same time, we watched the film and we’ll improve from there.” Saturday’s loss dropped South’s overall record this season to 6-1. The team improved to 7-1 with a win over Iroquois on Jan. 6 and was scheduled to play Williamsville East on Jan. 8 and Sweet Home on Jan. 13.

Will South captain Myles Hall and the Billies lost to Aquinas in the Will South tourney, marking their first defeat of the season.

Stallions slowed in Ontario tourney, Gawron records shutout The Mite Major Clarence Stallions played in the Golden Horseshoe Tournament in Burlington, Ontario, from Dec. 27-29. The Stallions played four talented Ontario teams, initially facing the

Vaughan Rangers. In this matchup, Stallions’ player Luke Marchant stole the puck in the neutral zone, went in on a breakaway, and scored. However, Vaughan pre-

vailed, 3-1. Stallions’ goaltender Josh Gawron made many saves to keep his team in the contest for the duration. The Stallions subsequently lost games to the Brampton 45s, Port Credit

Storm, and Oshawa Minor Generals. ••• Gawron recorded another shutout as Stallions blanked the Lakeview Hawks, 1-0 on Jan. 5. Cameron Stadelmaier

scored the game’s lone goal, assisted by Evan Becigneul and Marchant. The one-goal game got even tighter toward the end of the third period as Clarence defensemen took two penalties in

succession and Hamburg pulled its goalie for a 6-on-3 skater advantage, but Marchant took possession of the puck with 10 seconds left and iced it to finish the win for Clarence.

Local sports Amherst girls basketball remains UB grad Knox unbeaten with blowout win over Maryvale signs with the

By Melissa Brawdy SPORTS REPORTER

The Amherst girls basketball team continued its undefeated season with a win over Maryvale Tuesday night (Jan. 6). The game was mostly a comfortable one for the Lady Tigers, ending in a 60-31 win. Amherst took an early lead, scoring 22 unanswered points to start the game. Maryvale finally broke the shutout near the end of the first quarter, and the Lady Tigers took a 22-2 lead into the second quarter. The second quarter wasn’t

as dominant for Amherst. Maryvale came out strong this time and cut Amherst’s lead to 22-10 before the Lady Tigers scored another point. Amherst coach Mike Chatelle liked the strong start his Lady Tigers had, and though they had a weaker second quarter both offensively and defensively, a good team talk at halftime set the girls straight. “It was important for us to get off to a good start,” Chatelle said. “We got off to a good start, I think we got off to a 22-0 run, and then we got kind of stagnant. At halftime we talked about coming and really playing hard and finishing strong and finishing them off if we had the chance to. Luckily we did.” The Lady Tigers took a

27-11 lead into halftime. By the end of the third quarter, they’d stretched the advantage to 49-21. And in the fourth quarter, they did indeed finish off Maryvale with 11 more points for the final score of 60-31. Chatelle saw a few improvements in his team’s play that helped them in the second half. “We started to create some baskets,” he said. “We got some in transition. We took the ball to the basket more.” Holly Sullivan came into the game second on the team in points with 77 and added 15 more to her total. Nine of those points came in the first quarter as part of Amherst’s 22-0 start. “Holly came out shooting well,” Chatelle said. Claire Wanzer had 20

points in Tuesday’s game. She leads the Lady Tigers with 98 points on the season as of Tuesday. “I think that we played well,” Wanzer said after the game. “I think that we played better in the second half than the first half. We can always clean things up, and we all have to keep working at it and need to have less turnovers.” Alex Allard had seven points and was also key to the win, which improved Amherst’s record to 5-0 on the season. In the fourth quarter, Chatelle rested his starters, giving Kasia Fisher a chance to contribute a few points as well. Amherst was scheduled to face Cheektowaga Thursday night (Jan. 8) and will take on Springville Jan. 12 at home

Buffalo Bills

PAUL HOKANSON/UB ATHLETICS

Corey Knox, a 2012 UB graduate, signed a reserves/future contract with the Buffalo Bills on Dec. 30. Knox, 25, is a fullback who played just one year of college football.

Not worried about stats, Wanzer wants to will Tigers to wins game, a 60-31 win over Maryvale, Wanzer’s 98 points led Amherst, and 20 of those came against the Lady Flyers. Wanzer has been playing basketball since third grade and began playing competitively in By Melissa Brawdy sixth grade. It was then that she SPORTS REPORTER started playing Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) basketball. Wanzer credits the coaches ClaireWanzer has one simple she’s had over the years, the goal this season: win. The training she works hard at, and 5-foot-8 sophomore is a captain her teammates this year for her on the Amherst Lady Tigers’ success. varsity basketball team, and she “I like my team a lot,” Wandoes her job well. zer said. After Tuesday’s (Jan. 6) Wanzer’s focus is on her

team and its success. The team’s success is far more important than any individual success for her. When asked how she feels about her success so far this season, her thoughts immediately went to the team, which boasts a 5-0 record as of Tuesday. Those wins are of course in large part thanks to Wanzer’s offensive contributions. “I’m really proud of what we can do,” she said, her excitement evident. But she didn’t stop there. “I really want us to do more and go further though and keep working and keep improving.”

Wanzer’s desire to keep improving should set an example for her teammates. Although Tuesday’s win was a solid one, there were spurts of weaker play by most of the team. Wanzer saw that and immediately after the game discussed the improvements that need to be made. Although she was excited about the win, she wasn’t satisfied. “We can always clean things up, and we all have to keep working at it,” Wanzer said. Wanzer has that same outlook for the season as a whole and from year to year.

“Last year we lost in the playoffs, in the semifinals right before the championship game,” she explained. “I would really like us to just keep working and hopefully get back to the semifinals and maybe even the championship.” Of course, doing that will require hard work, along with winning every game possible. “[We need to] keep playing hard and win in our division and get lots of points,” Wanzer said. And Wanzer hopes to continue to contribute to those wins in any way she can. Going into Tuesday’s game, she also led

the team in assists with 12 and steals with 14. But the statistics don’t really matter to Wanzer. She isn’t afraid to let her teammates shine, either, as shown by her assists stat and the fact that in the team’s biggest win of the year, a 67-10 win over Health Science, Wanzer had just 10 points. Holly Sullivan led with 25 points in that game. Wanzer led in assists with five. As far as individual goals go, Wanzer has just one simple goal this season. “Help my team win,”Wanzer said with a smile.

NFADA AutoTech Competition organizers thankful

Mantel Masterpiece (NAPSI)—The mantel is such a great focal point in any living room or family room but, often, it gets special treatment only during the holidays. Here are some new ideas to transform your mantel (or windowsill, bookshelf or coffee table) all year round. Fall: Embrace harvest season and all of its bounty. Use large metal disks, stalks of wheat and decorative lanterns for height and then add apothecary jars filled with white pumpkins. A whimsical owl is a terrific touch, as are a few more pumpkins placed throughout. Winter: During winter, create a warm feeling with a big clock leaning against the wall or old books with simple white covers. Since there needs to be some height on each side, place lanterns on top of book

piles or rustic candlesticks atop a heavy vintage box. Spring: Nature is in full bloom. Use green, faux grass in a rustic planter and add some height with a birdcage or an old window. White candlesticks and small terra-cotta pots with yellow and blue flowers incorporate the essence of spring. Add some depth and visual interest with upside-down flowerpots or small wooden benches. Summer: Look to the garden. “Summer-ize” a large circular mirror with a hydrangea wreath featuring a combination of colors and some burlap. Coordinate matching garland to have the same look and feel as the hydrangea wreath and then place the same type of candleholder on each side with a colorcoordinated candle.

The annual NFADA Ron Smith Memorial High School AutoTech Competition, an annual event sponsored by the Niagara Frontier Automobile Dealers Association and Erie Community College, will take place on Saturday, Jan. 17. Winners will be crowned in both the diagnostic skills and tirechanging competition, and thanks to the generosity of several sponsors, prizes and scholarships will be awarded to hard-working local students. The competition will be held at the Erie Community College-Vehicle Technology Training Center at 5885 Big Tree Road in Orchard Park beginning at 9 a.m. and concluding with an awards ceremony at approximately

“None of this would be possible without the incredible support of our competition sponsors,” said NFADA President Paul Stasiak. “Their support helps our students continue their education in the automotive field and ensures a strong workforce right here in Western New York.” General Motors will serve as the vehicle sponsor for the event and will provide six 2015 Chevrolet Cruze vehicles for the students to compete on. The WNY Ford Dealers return as a competition contributor in 2015, sponsoring the front end alignment and electrical work stations and providing two display vehicles. Subaru is also sponsoring the front end alignment station and is providing a 2015 Subaru Forester to be worked on at the alignment station.
