Rock Harbor Village Bike Bash July 5th


Rock Harbor Village is attempting to become one of the more unique outdoor music and event venues in the city. Saturday will include both electronic and acoustic performances against a backdrop of old industrial Buffalo. Rock Harbor Village is the future site of a student village and a multi-faceted indoor/outdoor recreation facility. Money raised on Saturday will come from beer sales - the event is free and open to the public. Food sales (veggie burgers and pastries) on that day will go toward benefiting an undetermined non-profit. If you would like to know more about the Rock Harbor Village Bike Bash, send an email here. Otherwise, we should have additional details as the week rolls forward.
Remember, the venue is located at the parking lot adjacent to the bike trail and the Scajaquada Creek (57 Tonawanda - corner of Niagara Tonawanda). The times are from 2pm-8pm. Music and event schedule to be announced. James and his Ice Creamcycle will be there for a few hours to cool down the crowd. Plus Micropark Jay has just jumped onboard... he will be on hand to discuss developments with the future skate and bike park.

Carl Paladino is shaking it up once again, and next to the calling for the toll barriers to come down, this may be a hit with the general public.
"I'm asking our legislative candidates to vote for a Constitutional Convention," Paladino said. "This can happen every twenty years, the last time being 1996, but it hasn't been done since 1938."
Paladino's objective, he says, is to get both houses to vote by majority for a referendum on the ballot. This, he explains, would put to vo …
The Nicole Kidman/Studio Arena hoax that recently hit the media is an opportunity for some discussion about the way news travels these days, and begs comment on the phrase "Any publicity is good publicity".
After speaking with someone closely related to Studio Arena, who wishes to stay anonymous, it seems like the Kidman hoax was timed perfectly—in order to circumvent corroboration—and named just the right names in order to look plausible. Add to that the fact that many of t …
For over a decade, PRINT Magazine has been publishing a Regional Design Annual. This homage to graphic design receives more than 20,000 individual entries and only around two hundred are chosen as worthy entries into the yearly publication. They whittle down the entries in a stringent process of selection, picking only 5% of the first-rate winners from each region of the country that represent the best design, illustrations, and photography in the United States. This year, The Mar …
Now that the Senecas have suspended construction on both their embattled Buffalo Creek Casino and an expansion on their Salamanca site, the question is for how long and why.
Seneca Gaming Corporations (SGC) Public Relations Manager Philip Pantano says that the time frame is indefinite and the reason is based on a downturn in casino operations across the country, though he says the Seneca facilities have experienced growth of double-digit increases in the last two quarters.
The a …

SOME people forget what the whole premise of this site is for...Gee Newell, help me out here. Could you put up your original opening article now and then? This site is suppose to be for the POSITIVE building up of Buffalo and it's believers. This is suppose to be a place where we can positively explore Buffalo's future possibilities and formulate dreams that we believe can come true! Dream people! The hell with the naysayers! I remind you again that the original builders of this great city found nothing here- NOTHING and look what they did!! You must ask yourself-Am I as brave as they were? Can I take what's left in front of me and be courageous enough to ignore those who dissuade me from fulfilling my dreams-this city's dream? If you love this city, have a dream for yourself and for us all-follow it and we all win!!! I never ever thought I would be brave enough to buy a big old house here. You, Buffalorising and it's promoters, gave me the courage to follow my dreams and this new homeowner is living it. Follow me people...Step up and do or sit down and shut up until you can. I'm just so tired of naysayers. It's like vinegar on an open wound especially when I'm in debt for the rest of my natural life to do my part as one citizen!
