1. What does your square represent? My square represents our Polish heritage. I chose the pierogi symbol because it brings the family together. The color red I used is a symbol of Polish pride.
2. Why did you choose these symbols? Making Pierogis are a family tradition in our home. We get together before Easter and before Christmas to make at least 20 dozen to have for our holiday dinners and to gift some to friends. At least 6 to 8 people help the process. From my 2 year old granddaughter to the 68 year old grandpa! Fun is had by all.

What does your square represent? The square represents a bit of who we are. At the center Abigail + Eleanor our West Highland West Terriers, are sitting in between Mark's golf + my books. At the bottom, the tree branches have the flags from our family trees. English, Dutch, German, + Italian on my side + Polish, Bulgarian, Croatian for Mark with an American Flag in the heart in the middle.
2. Why did you choose these symbols? As a historian, the books + the coffee are very appropriate for me. The golf stuff is very Mark. The patriotic symbols show our pride + love for our country + community.
3. What do you hope viewers notice or feel? I hope they feel like they are getting to know more about us. The patriotic colors + the symbols are the very service oriented side of us and the books, golf, and dogs are more the behind the scenes version.]]> Poloncarz, Lindsey and Mark]]> ]]> Gorny, Anthony-Peter]]> Concert programs -- New York (State) -- Buffalo.]]> Elmwood Music Hall (Buffalo, N.Y.)]]> Buffalo Civic Orchestra]]> Ingram, John]]> eng]]> Mid-Twentieth Century (1925-1975)]]> Rare Book Room of the B&ECPL (repository)]]> eng]]> Early Twentieth Century (1900-1925)]]> Abel Faivre]]> Rare Book Room of the B&ECPL (repository)]]> eng]]> Early Twentieth Century (1900-1925)]]> S.

(John Warnock), Jr.]]> D’Amato, Alfonse]]> Rich Newberg reported from the nation's capital and got reaction and updates from Senator Alfonse D'Amato and Congressman Jack Kemp.

On March 30, 1981, just after Ronald Reagan was waving to a crowd outside the Hilton Hotel in Washington, D.C., shots rang out from a .22 caliber revolver fired by John Hinckley, Jr. who was only fifteen feet away.

The 70 year old president, who was about two months into his first term, took a bullet that ricocheted off his limousine and lodged in his chest, just missing his heart. His press secretary James Brady was shot in the head and suffered brain damage. Police officer Thomas Delahanty was hit in the back. Secret Service agent Tim McCarthy was wounded in the chest. McCarthy had positioned himself between Hinckley and the president. President Reagan's life was saved by the medical team at George Washington University Hospital.

Hinckley, who would later be found not guilty by reason of insanity, had fantasized that his attempt on the life of President Reagan would somehow impress actress Jodie Foster, who appeared in the movie Taxi Driver. In that movie the character played by Robert De Niro plots to assassinate a presidential candidate. Hinckley was committed to a psychiatric hospital and released in 2016.]]> Newberg, Rich]]> eng]]> Tinayre, Louis]]> Rare Book Room of the B&ECPL (repository)]]> eng]]> Early Twentieth Century (1900-1925)]]> M.

What does your square represent? Our amazing history - Buffalo's first Jewish congregation. The first female rabbi to lead a congregation in Buffalo. And Temple Beth Tzebek is a leader championing accessibility for all
2. Why did you choose these symbols? The temple's doors are open to all who seek to worship, learn, and serve the community. The dove is a symbol of peace, love, purity, and the human soul, 'shalom' is an ancient Hebrew word commonly translated as 'peace.' It represents total flourishing, well-being, and harmony across all parts of life.
3. What do you hope viewers notice or feel?
