<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/21119/20121221/back-to-school-to-build-a-toboggan</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Dec 21, 2012) You don&apos;t have to be a child to enjoy a simple winter treat — sliding down a hill on a toboggan.  A snowy backyard hill has been hard to find this month, but that didn&apos;t stop Todd Moe from signing up to build a wooden toboggan at the Adirondack Folk School in Lake Luzerne.  Historically an important method of transportation for native American peoples, the toboggan is probably the simplest sled in design, consisting of nothing more than slats of wood curved at the front.  Building one requires patience...and a lot of sanding.

<itunes:summary><![CDATA[Tuesday night&apos;s congressional debate in Queensbury ranged over a wide range of topics, but the issue that ignited the candidates and the crowd was health care. Republican Matt Doheny argued for repealing the Affordable Care Act and warned that the Democratic reform measure was &quot;anti-constitutional.&quot;That sparked a fierce reaction from Democrat Bill Owens, Green Party Candidate Donald Hassig and from the audience at Queensbury High School.

<title>Keeping a movie theater quaint, and open</title>

<description><![CDATA[ (Aug 8, 2012) A South Glens Falls man opened a small movie theater earlier this summer and says he’s not worried about the film industry’s decision to switch distributing first run features from film to digital.   Jerry Aratare says his single-screen Cinematheque shows foreign and first-run movies, though usually a couple of weeks later than the larger movie theaters.   The 82-year-old Aratare got his first movie theater job as a projectionist in 1951 in Vermont.  He’s opened about a dozen small theaters in the region over the years.  He told Todd Moe that his newest theater has 66 seats, a decades-old projector he’s dubbed “the old workhorse”, and a “hometown” atmosphere.

<description><![CDATA[ (Feb 29, 2012) Saratoga Springs is known for its mineral springs, race track and Revolutionary War battles, but it’s also a popular gathering spot for those who love social dancing. Thousands gathered for a &quot;flurry&quot; of dancing and music at the Saratoga City Center earlier this month. The annual Dance Flurry Festival celebrated its 25th anniversary over the Presidents’ Day weekend. There were dancers of all ages enjoying everything from African to Zydeco.Originally, it was a one-day event near Albany back in 1987. Since then, the Flurry, as it’s called, has evolved into a three-day winter gathering, drawing musicians, teachers, callers, volunteers, and of course, dancers from across the country.  As Todd Moe found out, families have grown up coming to the Flurry and for some it’s an annual tradition.
