SYRACUSE -- It's "two for one" Picture of the Week today -- we're taking a flashback field trip and plugging a good cause at the same time. This, after your editor recently heard for the first time about one local TV news anchor's efforts to help pets in times of medical need.
ROCHESTER -- Back in the 70s, you might say Utica radio stations WRUN and WBVM had a rivalry that matched that of Ron Burgundy and Wes Mantooth in "Anchorman" -- well, maybe except for the deadly back alley battles involving trident-wielding weathermen.

ITHACA/CORTLAND -- Central New York enjoyed beautiful weather yesterday -- the warmest we've seen in quite some time. With a high of 59º observed yesterday in Ithaca -- it's tough to believe the battle Jim MacKay had to wage just to get to work at ESPN 1160 (WPIE) just a week earlier.
