REEL RECS: ‘THE LAST OF THE MOHICANS’
Staff from your Monroe County Public Library recommend some of their favorites from the collection.
WHAT: The Last of the Mohicans (1992)
WHY: It seemed a little odd when Michael Mann, best known as director of contemporary crime shows and movies — and executive producer of “Miami Vice” — delved into costume drama. Even odder was Serious Method Actor and Oscar winner Daniel Day-Lewis taking the role of Hawkeye, the character also known as Natty Bumppo in the source material, an 1826 novel by James Fenimore Cooper (here he goes by the much cooler Nathaniel). The plot is altered quite a bit from the novel, which is just fine by all accounts of anyone who has managed to read the thing. Mostly this is a gorgeous — like all Mann films — drama with nonstop action and just the right amount of romance, set around the siege of Fort William Henry during the French and Indian War. North Carolina stands in for the Adirondacks, but the setting is so beautiful you don’t stop to think about the implausibility of running on a mountain trail while shooting two long rifles at once, or how a canoe chase over waterfalls would work.
WHERE: This film is available from the library as a DVD and Blu-Ray.

Susan Gerth’s message at the 9th Desiree’s Ride came through loud and clear in Brantford Saturday morning.

Gerth’s goal is to raise awareness of what victims of crime and their families go through in Ontario.
“For those who haven’t had to experience this, I pray you never have to,” said Gerth, speaking to riders and passengers before Saturday’s ride. “No one understands the effects, the pain, the suffering of victim experience until it happens to you.”
About 50 riders and passengers participated in a ‘scenic motorcycle ride’ to Nanticoke Saturday, coming from across southern Ontario, including Brantford, Woodstock and Norfolk County.
Gerth’s daughter, Desiree Gallagher, was a victim of violence. She died in 2015 at age 23.

“My daughter’s story is one of many,” said Gerth. “I choose to talk about my daughter’s tragedy to bring awareness, and I have great support to help me do so. I want to bring awareness to what victims have to go through. It’s a never-ending rollercoaster and a life sentence.

WILKES-BARRE, PA –On a day not favorable to front-end horses at Pocono Downs at Mohegan Pennsylvania, the International Moni sophomore gelding Sainthood came first-over, ducked to the inside, then moved up in the famous Pocono Pike to catch pacesetting favorite Royal Emeralds in 1:54.4 in the $15,000 featured harness racing trot on Monday, August 12.

Favored Royal Emeralds, going for her third straight win, went right to the lead and put out fractions of :27.3, :57, and 1:25.2, having a clear advantage most of the race. The Joe Pavia Jr.-trained Sainthood, who equaled his mark for Bay Pond Racing Stable, moved up to get into striking position, then caught the leader to win by three-quarters of a length, with a late-charging Wish List only another neck back.
SAINTHOOD REPLAY
George Napolitano Jr. drove Sainthood and watching George battle with Matt Kakaley for the top rung on the Pocono drivers’ victory ladder is like watching a heavyweight prizefight. Bam – George wins four on Saturday. Boom – Matt comes back with three on Sunday. On Monday’s card, Napolitano had four wins and Kakaley two, leaving Matt with a 185-184 lead over George – at least at this very moment.
After Tuesday racing at 1 p.m., it will be time for the biggest day of the Pocono racing year this Saturday, with $2,300,000 to be distributed on Sun Stakes Saturday, with the top three-year-old and Invitational horses in North America, such as Legendary Hanover and Jiggy Jog S, coming to the mountain oval to add to their reputations during a 14-race card that begins at 2:30 p.m. Free Pocono programs are or will be available at

The Kurdistan Region Security Agency (Asayish) published a video containing the confession of an Islamic State (ISIS) terrorist who was captured in Qarahanjir. The individual admitted to targeting over 25 members of the security forces.
The Asayish issued a statement, which was shared with PUKMEDIA, stating that on July 14, 2024, an armed clash took place between an ISIS terrorist and the Asayish forces in the Qarahanjiri district of Kirkuk province. As a result, Asayish member Jwamer Aziz Rashid was killed, another member was injured, and an ISIS terrorist was killed. Additionally, terrorist Haider Karim was wounded and captured. In response to the martyrdom of Jwamer, the hideouts of the terrorists were promptly destroyed using F-16 Fighter jets.
The operation was conducted in collaboration with the General Directorate of Asayish Operations, the Iraqi National Security Agency, Counter-Terrorism Cell, the Kirkuk Security Directorate, and the Kirkuk Operations Chamber, as stated.
The statement also said that, following an investigation, the arrested terrorists admitted to committing multiple crimes and that the General Directorate of Security Operations will release all the evidence, videos, and information regarding their terrorist activities. These acts specifically targeted over 25 members of the Iraqi and Kurdistan security forces.
It added that following the confessions and investigations, the General Directorate of Asayish Operations successfully caught the terrorist (Ali Abdullah) in Kirkuk and subsequently apprehended the terrorist (Mukhlif Zga’ al-Gaquli) in the Rashad area. Terrorists Zidan Khalaf Elias and Nizhan Zidan Khalaf were captured in the Qarahanjir district and Chiman village during a separate operation. According to initial information and as a consequence of investigations, the forces of the Asayish Operations Directorate captured the terrorist (Ala Shuja’i).
All six terrorists have been arrested in accordance with Article 2 of…

“This piece of copper now confirms that we have indeed located the site of Roanoac, the Algonquian village that welcomed the first English explorers in 1584.”
MANTEO, N.C. — Archaeologists say an unearthed copper earring likely came from European explorers who made up part of the “Lost Colony” in modern-day Roanoke Island, North Carolina.
The nonprofit First Colony Foundation said the earring was likely traded or gifted to local Native Americans between 1584 and 1585. According to the foundation, an analysis conducted by Madison Accelerator Laboratory at James Madison University found that the copper used to make the ring was of European origin, rather than from a North American source.

The foundation said neither the French nor Spanish — England’s rivals in exploring the New World — ventured as far north as Roanoke Island to trade.
Archaeologists found the earring at Roanoke Island’s Elizabethan Gardens.
“This is an amazing find, with an intriguing story to tell,” said Eric Klingelhofer, First Colony Foundation’s vice president for research, in a news release. “After laying hidden in the ground for more than four centuries, this piece of copper now confirms that we have indeed located the site of Roanoac, the Algonquian village that welcomed the first English explorers in 1584.”
The First Colony Foundation said at that time, the wife of the village chief treated English explorers Philip Amadas and Arthur Barlowe to a lavish woodland feast.
“We were entertained with all love and kindness,” Barlowe wrote in his journal, “and with as much bounty, after their manner, as they could possibly devise.”
“Which makes you wonder, was their hospitality later repaid with a gift of this copper earring, jewelry to adorn a chieftain’s wife or her ladies?”…
