The story is in the captions under the eight photos. My kanji book and my dog Kanji made it into one of the pictures! 

I had never heard of the Patches that seem to breaking out across the nation, filling in the massive holes in local coverage as our newspapers die. I haven't seen much of Albany Patch so far, but what I did see impressed me. I'm quite grateful to them for publicizing our effort.
