KAMEL RETURNS — Last year, Kamel Jamal sold Angelina’s in Cold Spring to concentrate on his four restaurants in Beacon. Under its new owners, the venture lasted only eight months, closing on Sept. 1, and Jamal stepped in to reclaim the business he founded in 2007. “I’m thrilled to be back,” he said. “We want to get things back to where they were, but with improvements.” (Photo by Michael Turton)

50 YEARS AND COUNTING — The Hastings Center, a research institute based in Garrison that addresses social and ethical issues in health care, science and technology, celebrated its 50th anniversary on Sept. 7. “We are facing a tsunami of innovation that is moving so fast individuals, institutions and governments cannot keep up,” said President Mildred Solomon, shown here with co-founder Willard Gaylin cutting the cake.
