Team Maldives did a fantastic job representing the Maldives and St. Luke's School the week of May 14, 2012 at the Global Classrooms International Model United Nations Conference in NYC. They spoke before their peers, engaged in intense negotiations, and wrote many resolutions to solve the various global problems presented to them. Over 2300 students participated from 23 different countries. St. Luke’s Sophomores Melanie Bow (Darien) and Sebastian Bates (Pound Ridge) won honorable mention for their work in the Human Rights Committee while Mac Zech (New Canaan) and Wyett Dalton (Pound Ridge) also won honorable mention for their work on the IAEA. All members of our team worked hard and had fun. We knew they were serious when they wanted to skip meals to work on their draft resolutions. Team Maldives and St. Luke’s Sophomores: Sebastian Bates, Will Bloomer, Melanie Bow, Ian Corbet, Wyett Dalton, Kevin Jahns, Robert Powis, Ulrike Proske, James Watson, and Mac Zech.

"This has CONVINCED MY…Read More GROWING CONVICTION that Patch has moved complete..."

I just called Staples. This is really disturbing to me. If I don't get a satisfactory answer, I…Read More will let people know and I will also decide whether to continue shopping there. I do not like to give my money to unethical businesses.

This has convinced my growing conviction that Patch has moved completely away from any pretense of…Read More being a news source and is simply an electronic bulletin board.
By abandoning their prior procedure of approving posts before they go up, they are letting anything go on and then taking them down if they're reported. By then, it's too late: the poster has gotten their message across during the time it's in the lineup.
I only check in with Patch occasionally now and so many people in town won't read it at all anymore.
I think we need to be honest with ourselves about what kind of a public forum this venue is.
This doesn't reflect well on Staples if they are using subterfuge and violating Terms of Use on Patch either.

New Canaan hockey players are better off playing at Sono, Ridgefield or Stamford Youth Hockey.
