....State Democratic Chairwoman Nancy DiNardo, who was not in attendance at festivities, called the primary a "trial run" for November.
"It just made people aware of the race that much sooner," DiNardo said in a telephone interview.
Himes echoed those comments in a brief interview before his victory speech, saying that the primary helped get him name recognition and mobilized his supporters.
"It's been a great rehearsal," Himes said.

Voter turnout was low Tuesday for the 4th Congressional District Democratic primary that pitted Greenwich residents Jim Himes and Lee Whitnum against each other....
....For Lucy and David Nevin, Greenwich residents for more than 46 years, coming out to vote was their civic duty.
"We like having a good person who represents us. We are concerned because we are older citizens who feel we should be better represented," said Lucy Nevin.
The Nevins voted at Julian Curtiss School.
"We always vote and stay informed. It's very important," she said.

Verizon Wireless wants to build a 95-foot cell phone tower in Byram Park to replace the 70-foot AT&T cell tower that is already on the site.
The AT&T tower is not tall enough to hold the antennae that additional service providers want to install, according to Kenneth Baldwin, an attorney for Verizon Wireless. Both Verizon and T-Mobile would like to use the 36 Ritch Ave. site, along with AT&T....

Golder trial begins
By Martin B. Cassidy
Greenwich Time Staff Writer
A young woman who encountered the "Dinnertime Bandit" in the middle of a backcountry burglary 11 years ago testified that she could only give a broad description of the intruder she saw in her parent's bedroom when she was 15.
"He was white or Hispanic and he wasn't obese," May Lynch Branson testified. "He had no facial hair and didn't wear glasses."....
...During the trial yesterday, Judge John Kavanewsky Jr. barred prosecutors from asking Branson, 26, to testify if Golder resembled the prowler she witnessed rummaging through her mother's bureau during a Sept. 25, 1997, heist at her Woodside Road residence....
...Yesterday afternoon, Kavanewsky Jr. ruled that Robert Liebman, another prosecution witness and alleged accomplice, should be blocked from testifying about alleged Westchester County break-ins in which Golder was never charged, as well as any incidental knowledge of Golder's admitted past as a cat burglar....
...Investigator in the case, testified that he had quickly ruled out the notion that the "Dinnertime Bandit" spree could be the work of a reconstituted version of a former band of thieves.
Between 1969 and 1974, Dominick Latella and Peter Salerno, known as the Dinner Set Gang, burglarized wealthy estates in Greenwich and elsewhere, stealing millions in jewelry and other goods while victims were at home during the early evening.
Salerno's son, who also became a cat burglar, was not as skillful as his father, and was an unlikely culprit in the 1996-1997 heists, Abruzzini said.
"Salerno's son was a house burglar, but you didn't investigate him?" Ehring asked. "Why not?"
"His name was mentioned but quickly disqualified," Abruzzini said. "He didn't have the capacity to act as his father did."....

That's how Greenwich residents remembered Garry Clemmons, a Stamford resident who spent many years traveling to Greenwich Avenue on a near-daily basis to sing for passersby and spread his message about kindness and love....
...One of those friends was Jim Genovese, a 19-year Greenwich police officer who regularly directs traffic at Greenwich Avenue and Havemeyer Place.
Clemmons used to arrive at the corner every day around noon, he recalled, and would spend as many as four hours at a time sitting on a corner bench, "just saying 'hi' to people"...

What Happened At The 6-year-old Greenwich resident David Archer Cohn Death case.
The story was put up on the Greenwich Time website last night at 04:17:49 PM, but it was removed.
All of these older stories are still in the cue on the local news page, yet David Archer Cohn's story disappeared:

All of these stories are still on the Greenwich Time local news page but little David Archer Cohn's story disappeared. I wonder why?
Maybe This Is What Happened To Yesterday's Story
Is the Greenwich Time getting hyper sensitive about their incomplete reporting?
Did the Greenwich Time even send someone to cover the David Archer Cohn death trial story or did they just call up David Lionetti's attorney to see what happened?
Did the reporter even speak to the Cohn family attorney or prosecutors after Shoreline Pools President David Lionetti pleaded not guilty?
You would never know, because there is not one word quoted from either of them?
