Drowning on the Hudson yesterday. Well, actually on the Indian and the body was recovered 5 miles downstream on the Hudson. If this is the guide I'm thinking of, well, I can't really say I'm surprised.
I heard a bunch of rumors last night but didn't quite get the details confirmed. The Post Star just did an article about it.

INDIAN LAKE -- A woman drowned Thursday during a whitewater rafting trip on the Indian and Hudson rivers and the guide who led the trip was charged with criminally negligent homicide, according to State Police.
Tamara F. Blake, 53, of Columbus, Ohio, was pronounced dead after she was thrown from a raft at 10:20 a.m., according to State Police.
State Police said Blake fell in the water in the Indian River, and her body was recovered about 5 miles downstream in the Hudson River. She was pronounced dead where she was recovered.
The guide who was piloting the raft, Rory K. Fay, 37, of North Creek was charged with criminally negligent homicide, according to State Police.
State Police said he was "intoxicated" and that a passenger with Blake steered the group's raft to shore after the accident.
He was sent to Hamilton County Jail for lack of bail.
Police said Fay, Blake and Richard J. Clar, 53, of Columbus, Ohio were on the raft on the Indian River when Blake and Fay were ejected. Clar got the boat to shore and Fay swam to shore.
Clar and Fay walked to Chain of Lakes Road after they got out of the river, but were unable to locate Blake.
A State Police helicopter was used to search the river, and the helicopter crew located Blake. It was unclear if she was wearing a personal flotation device.
Patrick Cunningham, the owner of Hudson River Rafting Co., said the person was on a trip guided by his company and Fay worked for his company.
The trips start on the Indian River, riding a bubble of water to the Hudson River and follows the Hudson to North River.
He said one guide was with the "small" group, and he was awaiting further details on what happened.
"It's a tragedy," Cunningham said.
He said State Police interviewed him, but he had not talked with Fay and did not know he had been charged and jailed until a Post-Star reporter informed him.
Cunningham said Fay began working as a guide for his company this spring, passed the guide's test and had taken about 20 trips.
More information will be posted when it becomes available.
The prosecution is not the first of Cunningham's staff for a rafting mishap. Cunningham and one of his guides were charged with misdemeanor reckless endangerment in 2010, though charges against the guide were dismissed.
It was unclear what became of the charges against Cunningham.

major suckage. death of summer, praying that's the last "summer" death. No excuses in losing a client up there.
With the flakes and the bad news, I'm in for ECRCVI - Come out and Playayay or the difference between snowmen and MAGGOTS. I'm sure Laser has a good one up his sleeve too.j'ai des grands instants de lucididididididididi
