Nearby: Orchard Park, NYEAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — The Buffalo Bills are off to their best start in 33 years, Josh Allen and the high-scoring offense are clicking, and they’re tied for the top record in the NFL. In a season during which many things have gone right so far, the Bills know better than to overlook a struggling AFC East rival when they face the New York Jets on Sunday at MetLife Stadium. “This is a division game on the road, it’s going to be as hard as it gets, right?” first-year coach Joe Brady said. “We showed that we can go on the road and win a hard game. We’ve got to go do it again. “And if we think otherwise, then I’m not doing a good enough job.” Coming off a 23-6 victory at Minnesota on Monday night, Buffalo is 7-1 — tops in the AFC and tied for the NFL lead with San Francisco. It’s the first time since 1993 the Bills have opened a season 7-1 or better.

Nearby: Boston, NYAfter taking 2025 off, the Art Dealers Association of America (ADAA) has returned to the Park Avenue Armory with a new name and revised format for its longstanding signature fair. Opening this evening in preview, ADAA Fair runs November 13-16 with 63 participating galleries spanning historical, modern and contemporary art. That’s 12 fewer than in 2024, and that’s not the only change. This year’s event has put a notably greater emphasis on presentations by regional American galleries and newer ADAA members, with exhibitors from Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago, St. Louis, Nashville, Miami, Dallas and elsewhere. “The American gallery landscape extends well beyond New York and Los Angeles,” executive director Kinsey Robb told Observer earlier this week. “Across the country, exceptional dealers are building ambitious programs, supporting artists, developing collectors and contributing significantly to their cultural communities.” The fair’s philanthropic priorities have also changed.

The Oswegonian · Geneseo, NY
Nearby: Geneseo, NYJustin Rubinfeld November 7, 2026 3 min read In a matchup that featured plenty of physicality and momentum swings, the No. 9 Oswego State men’s hockey team stayed the course against the No. 5 Geneseo Knights, with freshman Austin Borggaard sealing the win in overtime. The Knights notched the equalizer with 14 seconds to go in the third period, before Borggaard used a nifty move past his defender to then convert a cross-body shot past opposing goalie Jacob Torgner. The win helped the Lakers move back above .500 as they now sit at 2-1-0 on the season, identical to Geneseo’s record. Those Knights controlled much of the early momentum, as Kowin Belsterling got to work early with a goal off a quick offensive rush, not even a minute into the contest. After facing a one-goal deficit, the Lakers played a very physical brand of hockey before finding themselves with an odd man rush in the offensive zone.

Nearby: Niagara Falls, NYListen to the audio version of this article (generated by AI). Fifty years ago, the Love Canal disaster put the issue of toxic waste on the map. The tragedy galvanized a national movement and spurred Congress to pass “Superfund” legislation, which — at least in theory — requires polluters to clean up their toxic messes. Despite that progress, the problem never really went away. Here in Niagara Falls, New York, long-buried toxins are resurfacing. But so is the movement to rid our communities of these poisons forever. A new generation of activists, armed with cellphones and radiation detectors, is discovering the shocking extent of industrial pollution in this once-magnificent city. And they are demanding action. Love Canal was a half-mile-long canal into which the Hooker Chemical Corporation dumped leftover hazardous chemical compounds. Hooker covered the waste with dirt and then — incredibly —s old the land to the local school board for $1.
