Team USA Close to Gold Win
Go to www.usahockey.com to read how well Team USA did in this year's World Championships! They were undefeated in the preliminary round including a 3-1 win over Canada, but they fell to Canada 2-0 in the Gold Medal Game. I listened to the live audiocast on the web, but now it appears we can see the game on "tape delay" on cable television!
Team USA Tape-Delay Television Schedule
Wed., April 14 12 p.m.4 p.m. EDT Gold-Medal MSG
Wed., April 28 8 p.m.EDT Gold-Medal MSG
Girl Scout Director to Discuss What Girls Fear
On Wednesday, April 21, the Ithaca Branch of the American Association of
University Women will host a talk by Judith Gallagher, Communications
Director at Girl Scouts - Seven Lakes Council, Inc. Ms. Gallagher will

Girls Say," from 7:00 to 8:00 PM in Room 2/3 at the Women's Community
Building, 100 W. Seneca St., Ithaca. The event is free and open to the
public.
To better understand how girls perceive safety, the Girl Scout Research
Institute conducted a national study of 2,341 girls, ages 8-17.?nbsp; The
study's findings include a description of how preteen and teen girls define
safety, the costs associated with feeling unsafe, and coping strategies.
Tips for adults to help girls feel safe are also included.
