DISTRIBUTION DIRECTOR Distribution Director East: Paul Kelly 585.258.9888 ROCBuzz Who's saying what; what's making news. Volume 183, Number 91 City officials want to impose a six-month moratorium on new bars and other establishments that serve or sell alcohol near residential areas. There goes Rochester changing all the rules again. This could start a precedent that could affect all neighborhood bars so that the only ones you can go to late at night are ones you have to drive to. Linda Whitney So having repeatedly been laughed out of court for their attempt to limit the 2:00 AM closing time, the city now is going to throw a legislative temper tantrum and impose a moratorium on new bars and other establishments that sell alcohol? If nothing else, this will please existing bar and convenience store owners by preventing new competitors from going into business.

Bill Williams Here is another step forward in becoming a POLICE STATE. Next thing the gov- rnment is going to do is put a curfew on how late people stay out, forcing a dults to be in their home before 11P.M. One great way to promote Rochester, Gregory M. Williams This type of establishment and this activity has significant impact on neighbor- oods especially when allowed to remain open into the morning hours. I ope city council will look carefully into this matter!

ASHORT STAY FOR THE STONES The Rolling Stones are going on tour again and will come to Buffalo this summer. Do you remember when they came to Rochester in 1965 and a riot nearly ensued? Check out the photos at democratandchronicle.com. POSTED PENGUIN CHICKS There are currently 43 African penguins in the flock: 21males, 13 females and nine unknown. Unknown? Yep. because the best way to determine the sex of some birds, including penguins, is to look at the DNA, and we like to wait until the birds are older to take a feather sample.

So the gender of some of our younger chicks remains a mystery, for now. Since 1999, the zoo has had 93 successful hatchlings. Some of these have been sent to 25 accredited zoos and aquariums across North America, including the oledo Zoo, the Mystic Aquarium in Connecticut, the Minnesota Zoo, Lowry Park Zoo, Denver Zoo and Georgia Aquarium, in order to save and sustain the species. Imported from South Africa in 1 996, the founding penguins of the flock created a strong genetic line that has shaped the wider opulation in conservation care. The rest make up the 43 penguins in the flock.

The most recent addition came when six baby chicks Gizmo, Blue, Obi, Sky, Marvel and Swoop hatched in January. Every year for the last 16 years, the zoo has had success raising hatchlings, tarting with Little Ricky in 1999. a breakdown: 2014 (3): Doni, Cricket, Roman 2013 (11): Bub, Blitzwing, Chuck, Charlie, Avery, arcy, Pippin, Elrond, Gimli, Smeagol, Jerry 2012 (5): Bamm-Bamm, Shadow, Pebbles, Jazz, Beazle 2011(6): Mackenzie, Ty, Alex, Sam, Huey, Thumper 2010 (7): Parker, Sparky, Sparkles, Haley, Wesley, ip, Unknown name 2009 (5): Phoenix, Dassen, Jackie, Robben, Georgia 2008 (7): Geyser, Butters, Lionel, Tazmania, Tweak, Cricket, Sweet Pea 2007 (6): Boulder, Pomona, Sinclair, Wedge, Chicke Hawk, Seneca 2006 (5): Twiggy, Wash, Zoey, Awesomo, Plum Pudding 2005 (9): Tyson, Pickle, Triangle, Ren, Stimpy, Jonny Fire Fly, Piccolo, Forest 2004 (9): Terri, Arthur, Wilson, Guiness, Regan, Kyle, Tiny Tim, Goliath, Pearl 2003 (1): Ash 2002 (6): Poopy, Roxy, Teapot, Gia, Eze, PP 2001(3): Pedro, Pete, Calista 2000 (3): Tonic, Vincent, Little Jim 1999 (1): Little Ricky African penguins are found in coastal areas and seas off the southern tip of Africa. Once abundant in their natural range, there has been a 60 percent ecline in population in the last 30 years. Numbers have dwindled so quickly that in 2010, African pen- uins were listed as endangered by the Interna- ional Union for Conservation of Nature Red List.

Knowledge gained from the success of breeding programs in zoos is being used to help assist breed- i ng programs in situ, where population decline is due in large part to breeding failure. The South African Foundation for the Conservation of Coastal Birds, a nonprofit organization dedicated to the preservation of sea birds, has, for example, established The Chick Bolstering Project. The initiative is a collaborative effort to introduce hand-reared chicks back into their natural range to combat pop- lation decline. Seneca Park Zoo supports organizations such as SANCCOB as they work tirelessly to save this magnificent bird in its natural range.
