Timeless Treasures, in Pelham, is hosting a retrospective and sale of jewelry designed by the late Pelham resident Jack (Jacques) LiBuono on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. LiBuono, according to a press release from the store, was a master of costume jewelry and worked from the 1940s through the 1980s. His son James, who lives in Pelham, will give a presentation on Saturday. The store is at 200 Sparks Ave. in Pelham.

State Sen. Jeff Klein will hold three anti-cyberbullying forums for students Thursday at schools in Pelham and Mount Vernon. He will be joined by Miss New York Kaitlin Monte, who is an anti-bullying advocate, and several others. The first meeting will be held at Pelham Middle School at 12:30 p.m. The second will be at Pelham High School at 1:15 p.m. The third will be at the A.B. Davis Middle School in Mount Vernon at 2 p.m.

Klein has been raising awareness about the repercussions of cyberbullying. He is helping to develop a census aimed at understanding how widespread cyberbullying is in New York.

UPDATE: I’ll be on the 8:43 from White Plains, due in Grand Central at 9:23. If you’re on the same train and going to the parade, let’s talk Giants!

Looks like I’ll be riding a train into NYC tomorrow morning to cover the Giants parade. If you’re among the Giants fanatics who will be doing the same, let me know what train you plan to take (I’m not sure yet whether I’ll take the Harlem or New Haven line) and where you plan to watch the parade. I’ll be looking to talk with folks from the area.

Write me at erauch@lohud.com if you’re interested in connecting. You can follow me on Twitter, too: @NPRauch.

The Pelham Math Committee, a group of parents advocating the overhaul of the Pelham School District’s elementary math program, has taken its cause to the Internet and developed a pretty deep website on the subject. This reporter isn’t picking sides in this fight, but I thought people who have been following the story (I wrote this article about it at the end of the year; an Iona College professor wrote this letter to the editor) as well as educators and parents of students in other communities would be interested in the group’s positions and, therefore, interested in the site. If you do take a look, drop a line in the comments section of this blog and let me know what you think. I’ll be following this story closely and I’m eager to hear and read as many opinions about it as possible.

Katie Costantini, a senior at Pelham Memorial High School, has spent the last two summers growing and studying small groups of cells at Rockefeller University, in New York City. Now she’s a semi-finalist for the Intel Science Talent Search, one of 14 from Westchester County. (Read more about the contest here.)

Intel’s description of her project, “Investigating the Efficiency of Growth and Incorporation of Small Intestinal Mucosal Organoids Grown from Single Stem Cells and Isolated Crypts,” makes it sound like arcane work. But, Costantini said, “I think it has such immediate, practical applications.”

She said her research could eventually lead to cures for intestinal conditions like celiac disease, which afflicts 1 in every 133 people and, according to the Celiac Disease Foundation, goes largely undiagnosed.

That pragmatic aspect of her work likely appealed to Intel’s judges, she said. Still, Costantini said she was “totally surprised” to find out she’d made the semi-final round in what she described as a “world-renowned competition.”

Asked what she would do until the finalists are announced, the 18-year-old paused and offered, “Be anxious?” Costantini plans to attend Williams College in the fall. She said she’ll “definitely” study some kind of science, perhaps biology or neuroscience, and is considering taking pre-med courses.
