E. Greenbush Supervisor’s Report On Monday, June 17, 2019, the first public meeting on the new Comprehensive Plan will be held at 6:00 p.m. at the Red Barn in the Town Park! East Greenbush last promulgated a Comprehensive Plan in 1993, although a Land
Use Update was published in 2006. Since the Town is changing so fast, the Town Board approved funding for a new Comprehensive Plan. This will be followed by amendments to the Zoning Map and an update to the Generic Environmental Impact Statement (GEIS). The public meetings are critical to the process. We have no preconceived ideas as to the form the new Plan should take because we want to know how Town residents envision the future of their Town. Are we growing too fast? What areas and resources should be protected? What do we mean by the term “smart growth?” How can we enhance walkability? What are the implications of the Albany-Hudson Electric Trail? There are many questions that have to be answered before we can put together the right Plan. The session on the 17th is a Visioning Workshop that will include information tables, opportunities to

Public Meeting to Assist with Poestenkill Natural Resources Inventory Residents of Poestenkill are invited to a meeting to see the Town’s natural features mapped in full color and detail and provide feedback on the accuracy and ease of use of the maps. The Poestenkill Conservation Advisory Council (CAC) will hold a public meeting at 7 pm at Town Hall on Wednesday, June 19, to brief Town officials and other residents on an updated Natural Resources Inventory (NRI) that the CAC is preparing. It will include maps of streams, forests, wetlands and flood hazard zones, among many natural characteristics. An updated NRI is a support document for the Town’s Comprehensive Master Plan to assist Town boards, landowners, and prospective developers when considering land use and protection. The CAC is creating the updated NRI as part of a pilot program of the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation Hudson River Estuary Program, which provides digital mapping expertise from Cornell University and publication assistance from the Rensselaer Land Trust.

Nassau pharmacist to pay $100,000 in benefits case Grossman admits store filed false claims for Medicare, Medicaid By BETHANY BUMP
A Rensselaer County pharmacist has agreed to pay $100,000 to resolve allegations that she and her pharmacy submitted false claims to Medicare and Medicaid. As part of the agreement, Cathy Grossman admitted that from March 2010 to March 2017 she and her staff at Nassau Pharmacy submitted false claims to the benefits agencies for reimbursement, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.
In some cases, the claims were for drugs that she and the pharmacy never dispensed. In others, they were for drugs that patients never ordered. Grossman also billed the government for brand-name drugs while dispensing less expensive generic alternatives to patients. “When pharmacists submit false claims to Medicare and Medicaid, hard-working taxpayers foot the bill,” said U.S. Attorney Grant Jaquith. An investi triggered by a whis-
tleblower lawsuit filed under the qui tam provisions of the federal and New York False Claims Acts, which allow private individuals to file civil actions on behalf of the government and share in any recovered funds. In this case, the whistleblower will receive $22,000 of the settlement proceeds. The case was investigated by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of New York, the state Attorney General’s Office,
the Office of Inspector General for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. “Fraudulently billing Medicare and Medicaid for personal gain is both illegal and immoral,” said Attorney General Letitia James. “Not only did Cathy Grossman steal from government programs intended to support vulnerable populations, but she saddled taxpayers with the bills of this dishonest activity.”
Mom’s words pay tribute to son killed by drunk driver Woman reads statement to man convicted in death of Averill Park graduate By SARA CLINE
MaryEllen Bielawa sat in aSouth Carolina court holding a piece of paper with 11 paragraphs on it. It was her victim impact statement. Two and a half years earlier her 19-year-old son Ryan Bielawa of Averill Park was struck and killed crossing a street near his college campus of Coastal Carolina University in South Carolina. Not long after Ryan’s death, she wrote her impact statement, and has always kept it. “It was difficult to put into words,” MaryEllen said. “But I was told, ‘Just describe Ryan and how his death has affected your life.’” This week she was finally given the opportunity to read her statement aloud in court to Edward Washington, the drunken driver who struck Ryan.

“My son was a beautiful person with an amazing future ahead of him and Mr. Washington took that away from him,” MaryEllen read. “I will never get to see my son graduate from college, have a successful career, family — all those things a parent gets to witness and be a part of as their children grow up. I am haunted by my loss in every aspect of my life.” Washington, 33, was convicted in the South Carolina court Wednesday for driving under the influence and sentenced to 20 years in prison. “I don’t have hatred for Mr. Washington. I understand it was an accident and he didn’t want to hit my son. But he still drove drunk.” MaryEllen, who continues to live in Averill Park, told the Times Union last week. “I lost my son, but this man is losing his life, too, ‘cause he is spending 20 years in jail.” Ryan, a2015 Averill Park High School

pended license, he was driving drunk and he left my son on the side of the road after hitting and killing him,” MaryEllen said in her statement. “If he had obeyed the law, he would not have been on the road and my son would be alive.” “He had a whole community of people,” MaryEllen said. “He was a role model to his friends. He encouraged them to be the best that they could be. They all looked up to him and aspired to be like him.” Ryan made many friends at Coastal Carolina where he was a sophomore and studying finance. He was on the president’s and dean’s lists. MaryEllen said Ryan had dreams of working in the stock market and that “his claim to fame was that he was going to be a millionaire by 25.” “There is no doubt in my mind, or anyone that knew Ryan, that he would have achieved those goals and more,” MaryEllen said. Ryan Bielawa was a soccer and basketball player at Averill Park. He also attended La Salle Institute for one year. “One of his expressions was ‘never have a bad day.’ He was always happy and smiling,” she said. Upon returning to her Averill Park home on Friday, MaryEllen said she went in her son’s room, which has remained the same since his death, to hang up some collages his friends had made. Ryan used to talk about a house of his own, MaryEllen said, and in it he said he would have an apartment for his mother. “He always said, ‘Don’t worry Mom, I’m going to take care of you,’” MaryEllen said choking up. “I wish he was still here.” MaryEllen said although she was relieved for this chapter of the tragic journey to finally come to a close, her heart still aches. “It was a hard week,” MaryEllen said. “But I just needed to go. I needed to read my statement. I felt like I owed it to Ryan.” CONTINUED FROM 3

Now we’re one of the better facilities. Attendance has been solid. We’re always at the top three within the league.” The ValleyCats ranked second in the NYPL at 4,119 fans per game last season. They won their third league title, which Murphy said could help bump attendance. Tri-City did have issues last year with power outages during a heat wave and a torrential downpour that caused a five-hour rain delay because the field took that long to dry. “This will be part of the conversation (with HVCC),” Murphy said. “The shelf life on the field is typically around 18 years, natural (grass) fields.

He’s the team president now, but Rick Murphy doesn’t mind doing a little dirty work. He replaced the liner in a trash receptacle in the Tri-City ValleyCats offices on Friday morning. “We’re a little short-handed,” Murphy explained. His staff was busy getting ready to host a picnic of 1,300 state workers at Bruno Stadium. On the other hand, Murphy is taking on bigger projects after being named president last month. He inherited that title from principal owner Bill Gladstone, who turned 88 in May. “He’s been instrumental in the success of the franchise and will still be involved,” Murphy said. “I think from a business perspective, we just felt it was the right time that I take on some additional responsibility.” The ValleyCats are embarking on their 18th season. TriCity, the New York-Penn League affiliate of the Houston Astros, opens at Vermont on Friday before holding its home opener against Staten Island on Father’s Day. Murphy and Gladstone have worked together since 1992 in Pittsfield (Mass.), the franchise that relocated to Tri-City in 2002. Murphy served as general manager and then chief operating officer before this new assignment. Gladstone is still expected to be a daily fixture at ValleyCats home games in his seat behind home plate. He’s now the team’s chairman with his son, Doug, filling the role of vice chairman. “Rick has, for the 27 years they’ve been partners, evolved and grown in his role and is really the leadership presence for the team in the community,” Doug Gladstone said. “You

public sightings as indices of moose distribution and abundance in New York. This is part of a multi-year research project to obtain information on the status of New York State’s moose population, health of the moose, and the factors that influence moose survival and reproductive rate. Most moose sightings occur within the Adirondacks, but neighboring states Connecticut and Massachusetts also have moose populations, resulting in observations in the southeast portion of New York. The moose, a protected mammal in New York State, is the largest member of the deer family and the largest land mammal in New York. Bulls weigh from 600 to 1,200 pounds and stand up to six feet tall at the shoulder. Cows weigh anywhere from 500 to 800 pounds. DEC reminds the public to respect wildlife by viewing from a distance, at least 50 feet away. Keep quiet, move slowly, and do not approach moose. Drive cautiously at dusk and at night in the Adirondacks. Have you seen a moose? Let DEC know by reporting your observations using the online form. Share your moose encounters by mailing in or e-mailing your photos to us.

Free talk on Civil War History SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. -- The role of a Civil War infantry regiment recruited from New York City, and Newark, New Jersey as well as villages across Western New York will be the subject of a free talk on Saturday, June 15, at 1 p.m. at the New York
State Military Museum. Rick Barram, the author of the book “The 72nd New York Infantry in the Civil War, A History and Roster” will talk about the history of the unit which in every key battle waged in the War’s Eastern Theater from 1861 to 1865. The 72nd was part of the Excelsior Brigade, a unit of five regiments recruited by Brig. General Daniel Sickles from across New York. Sickles, a New York City Democratic Congressman, was infamous for shooting and killing the son of Francis Scott Key, who was having an affair with his wife, and then claiming temporary insanity. He was found not guilty during the trial and then went on to lead Union troops. Rick’s talk will look at the founding and history of the brigade, Sickles’ enthusiastic but flawed leadership and the difficulty ‘Sickles the politician’ would experience in becoming ‘Sickles the General.’ This talk will use the 72nd’s role within the brigade as a focal point while examining some of the hardest fighting of the Eastern Theater until the brigade’s dissolution in the summer of 1864. Barram lives and works in northern California where he teaches social studies and theater arts in the Gateway Unified School District. He is a Civil War reenactor and serves on the boards of two Civil War-related non-profits. The New York State Military Museum is located at 61 Lake Avenue in Saratoga Springs.

Pet Care
Did you know?
Though they might be most often associated with dogs, ticks can affect cats as well. According to Blue Cross for Pets, cats are most likely to encounter ticks if they live near areas with lots of deer and sheep or in regions where other wildlife, such as hedgehogs and rabbits, are present. While ticks are active throughout the year, cats are most likely to encounter them between spring and autumn. That’s due in part to the climate during these seasons, which tends to be warmer and therefore more inviting to cats, compelling them to spend more time outdoors than they do in winter. Ticks, which are egg-shaped, are big enough to spot,

so cat owners should conduct a careful examination of their cats’ fur each time they come into the house after spending time in the yard. Blue Cross for Pets notes that ticks feel like small bumps on a cat’s skin. Ticks are most likely to attach themselves to particular areas of a cat’s body. These areas include the head,
neck, ears, and feet. Routine brushing, especially whenever cats come inside after time spent outdoors, can help cat owners spot and remove ticks from their cats. It’s important to recognize that indoor cats are not invulnerable to ticks, as other pets and humans can track ticks indoors.

This will be the final scholar athlete article for this school year. Please read again when I come back in September with the newest senior class. This week’s scholar athlete is Dylan Hansen. Dylan is a singles player on the Varsity Tennis team. Dylan started playing tennis in eighth grade after his older brother introduced him to the sport. His favorite part of the sport is “that it is an individual sport within a team sport. We win and lose as a team but compete individually. It’s also fun to be with good friends every day before practice.” Dylan says the most difficult part is “being able to mentally stay into every point in a match and not getting down on yourself.” In order to prepare for this season, Dylan and his team practiced hitting on the courts. Their efforts helped them to reach the sectional championship game, a feat that had not been previously accomplished. Dylan works hard both on the court and in the classroom. Throughout high school, Dylan has maintained a GPA of 92. This year, Dylan is taking challenging courses such as AP biology, statistics, participation in government, and psychology. Dylan’s efforts were recognized last fall when he was inducted into the National Honor Society. In his future, Dylan will be attending the University of Buffalo in order to pursue a degree in Biology. Outside of school, Dylan works at the Coldstone Creamery. Dylan says that he has had numerous role models help him throughout high school. “In tennis, Coach Gaetoni has always inspired us with making section champs as our goal. In school, Mr. Reddy and Mr. McPartlin have been my biggest role models. The two have displayed great work ethic and helped me in any way I’ve needed in high school.” We all wish Dylan the best as he finishes his senior year of high school and enters college.

Based on her book Staging Family: The Domestic Deceptions of Mid-Nineteenth-Century American Actresses, Mullenneaux will present a talk on two mid-nineteenth-century actresses who were born, worked, and died in Rensselaer County. While Sand Lake native Mary Devlin rose from ballet girl at the Troy Museum Theatre to act with top stars of the 1840’s and 50’s, the same era saw
itinerant player Mary Ann Wyatt murdered within days of her marriage to “bad boy” Henry Green of Berlin, NY. Mullenneaux explores how the unique labor opportunities open to stage actresses at mid-century offered both possibility and peril.

Rensselaer County’s Second Annual Farm Day Out! When: August 18th 12pm-3pm Where: Kinderhook Creek Farm (5168 S Stephentown Rd, Stephentown, NY 12168) Join Cornell Cooperative Extension of Rensselaer County and The Eckhardt Family at Kinderhook Creek Farm from 12-3pm on Sunday, August 18th, for Rensselaer County’s Second Annual Farm Day Out! Kinderhook Creek Farm is an 1150+ acre field crop and vegetable farm that has been owned and operated by the Eckhardt’s since 1959. Once parked, a hay wagon ride will take you through some of the fields at Kinderhook Creek Farm. Through interactive demonstrations you will learn about the different crops (such as hay, grain, sweet corn, and the many vegetables) grown on this farm. You will also see how their farm products get to market and eventually to your family’s table. Also, be sure to visit exhibits set up by local organizations & businesses, experience the equipment used on the farm by the farmers and see the 4-H Club sponsored petting zoo.
As we celebrate 25 years in the Town of Sand Lake, we hope that you too will be celebrating your beautiful healthy gardens. Enjoy these tips as you spend your time in the garden. - Have your Soil tested. You do not need more than a half cup of dirt that should be thoroughly dry. Take samples from wherever you are planting such as a vegetable area or your perianal gardens. The test will give you the Ph for your soil and help you determine if your soil needs additional nutrients. Your Cooperative Extension in Troy will do ONLY this for a nominal amount. - Keep weeds out of your /mo. garden. The earlier you start pulling weeds, the fewer you will have during the growing season. 8 WHITE DOUBLE HUNG, DOUBLE PANE, DOUBLE STRENGTH GLASS,

include turquoise, yellow, red, indigo, orange, and black. The door color should complement the other shades of the home, such as those on siding and trim. • Custom walkway: Guide guests right to the front door with an attractive (and safe) walkway. Stamped concrete or decorative paver blocks may fit the bill. This walkway can extend to the street or to the driveway. • Contain plants. Landscaping around the entryway should be neat and well-tended. Overgrown plants or shrubbery may give off an air of neglect. Container plants and carefully curated shrubs can create a neat and inviting aura. • Highlight the address. Make sure the home can be found easily with bold and decorative house numbers. Consider two different address signs: one illuminated and easily viewed from the curb, and another closer to the front door. • Utilize high-end materials. The relatively small area of real estate by the front door enables homeowners to splurge on more opulent materials that can really add a feeling of luxury. These can include colorful tiles, ornate planters, decorative wooden doors, or elaborate knobs and lighting fixtures. • Add architectural details. Find out which architectural elements will meld with the style of the home and then incorporate them. Moldings, columns, shutters, and trim are areas to consider.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
What Congressional Democrats are trying to do by continuing their fake investigation of President Trump is to distract the public from the karma that is coming their way. The Obama administration and candidate Clinton used the power of the deep state to try to stop Donald Trump from winning the election. When that failed, they continued to apply their immense power into impeaching him and removing him from office. They do not understand what they are up against. It’s not just President Trump and the people who voted for him. They are at war with justice itself and they’re going to lose. They will lose because they tried to make up evidence to fit their accusation. The impeachment process is not a legal process. It’s a political process. They can use lies and accusations to win their case in the court of public opinion only to remove an elected official from office. We The People now have Attorney General William Barr conducting a legal investigation of their political investigation…only this time, we have real evidence of real crimes. Mr. Barr’s investigation won’t simply result in people being removed from office. People will go to jail. Of this I am now confident because I understand that the Democrats ALWAYS project their own thoughts onto their opposition. The latest example of this is House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s unwise statement that she would like to put President Trump in jail. She’s really showing us that she knows that it’s people on her side who actually will be going to jail. Not only will they lose this particular battle to protect themselves from the genuine investigation of the crimes they committed while trying to prevent President Trump from Making America Great Again, but they also stand to lose their battle for Globalization and their New World Order. President Trump’s recent trip to the U.K., the resignation of Britain’s Prime Minister, the status of Brexit and the contrived anti-Trump protests in London are all events that show us just how deep this rabbit hole goes. ~David Crawmer www.republicamerica.us
Memoirs of an Amnesiac: Bomb Shelter Some people think of the 1950s as a prosperous, carefree time in America. As a young sprout, I recall some anxiety over the Cold War, which was in full frost back then. The US and Soviet Union each had enough nuclear weapons to blast the other to smithereens—and take the rest of the planet with them. We all worried that somebody in charge might have an itchy trigger-finger. What could ordinary people do? At school, we practiced huddling under our desk. I remember a Civil Defense film which showed us how to fend off nuclear fallout: Just wear a broad-brim hat. I guess that had to be true; the authorities wouldn’t lie to us, would they? There was a well-to-do family down the road from my house, and one day I heard that they had converted their basement into a bomb shelter. That got me worried, so I asked my Dad if we should convert our basement, too. He just smiled and said it wouldn’t be necessary; there wasn’t going to be a war. Dad knew lots more about stuff than I did. He had served with the Royal Air Force during WWII, where he had seen people die, and was himself nearly killed. So now, I was only too glad to take his word for it. I breathed a sigh of relief. They say that when you’ve seen one nuclear holocaust, you’ve seen them all. If the Cold War had suddenly turned hot, it might have been better not to survive. Is
that what Dad was thinking when he said we wouldn’t need a bomb shelter? Either way, he did his best to ease my mind. I could go on enjoying each day as it came, and not waste it worrying. ~Ron McKee, Averill Park, NY
Lettered Moments Lifting one from the pile Regarding the address with a smile. Return address on the envelope. Did I write back, yes, I hope. Cancelled stamp reveals date. Open it, read it, it can’t wait. No one else will, would have one just like it could they? A report of the weather A story of a family get together Finishing schoolyear. Memories dear A day’s work and plans Happy birthday wishes ran into a recipe, shared thoughts, ideas for travel. Memories lingering in reverie. Is this what you’re supposed to do at 82? Might have done at 81. Say I’m not the only one. ~Nancy W. Davis, June 2019, Averill Park, NY
I Wanna Be Me At times I’m tired of being me I think about others I would like to be. I’d like to be a deep-sea diver Or a famous celebrity’s limo driver; I’d love to write a best-selling book About my life as a gourmet cook; I wish I could discover a life-saving pill That would take away pain from those who are ill; I wish I had been one of King Henry’s eight wives But...... not the ones who lost their lives. I can picture myself on a flying trapeze Or a ballet dancer who can twirl with ease. A woman world-celebrated for a glamorous life Or a woman envied for her charm as a wife. ********** These fantasy dreams all come to an end When I remember my dearest beloved best friend Who wags his tail and gives a wet doggy kiss Then I’m enveloped completely in canine pet bliss. Whenever my beloved dog comes running to me, I know I’m the person I’m happy to be. ~Sylvia Honig, Wynantskill, NY

Letters do not necessarily reflect the opinions of the staff of The Advertiser, and we cannot vouch for the accuracy of the contents of these columns.
“No New Taxes – Read My Lips” Here we’re talking about the way New York State does business. Time and time again, NY sells a program “for the public benefit” only to have it become a tax increase to benefit the rulers of the Empire State. Years ago, the auto inspection fee was introduced as “it will never be more than three dollars.” Today it is over $20. A promise was made to not increase auto registration fees: today there is a $10 “use fee” on car registrations plus a $10 “law enforcement fee” on mandatory insurance policies. That’s $20 additional. Most recently, Governor Cuomo has announced the goal of 100% energy independence from carbon free sources. State grants and incentives promoted solar development. Now that solar installations peaked in 2016, the Empire State seeks to impose taxes on solar installations to fund another state program. When will the elected leaders of this state start acting on behalf of the people and not like Emperors of the Empire State? ~Steve Sevits, East Greenbush, NY
Shopping Locally Is a Community Service
It’s hard to believe that the grand opening of the Peebles Department Store in East Greenbush was September 2014, five years ago. Even harder for me to believe is that I patronized Peebles for the first time a week ago. I have driven across the river countless times to Colonie to shop for things I could have easily gotten at Peebles just 2.5 miles away from my home. Peebles is a neat and clean, brightly lit, family-oriented department store. Sadly, the Peebles store in Troy closed in January probably due in part to people like me who choose to drive to the malls in Colonie instead of being mindful of the wonderful shops in our own communities. My understanding is that the East Greenbush Peebles lease is up in September and whether or not they will be renewing their lease is as yet unknown. We do know, however, how difficult it has been to bring businesses, including restaurants and retailers, to East Greenbush, especially for location on or near Columbia Turnpike. Therefore, to keep our much-appreciated local businesses operating in town, it is wholly within our best interests as taxpayers to shop in town whenever possible. When we shop locally, our sales tax dollars stay within the local economy helping, as a result, to improve our community. In an effort to thank businesses for choosing to operate nearby, please take every opportunity to volunteer for community service by shopping locally.
