Capital Region welcomes Obama

MR. PRESIDENT

newsenterprise@denpubs.com ALBANY — President Barack Obama says job creation is key to a full economic revival.

On a Tuesday, May 8 visit to Albany, the president said the Capital District is doing everything right to make economic success happen sooner rather than later.

“The reason I came here today is because this school and community represents the future of our economy,” said Obama.

Standing under bright lights in NanoFab X, a $365 million computer chip manufacturing lab still under construction at the College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering, Obama praised the high tech work being done there and deemed it a valuable part of the nation’s future progress and a model for the rest of the country.

“Right now, some of the most advanced manufacturing work in America is being done right here in our state of New York. Cutting edge businesses from all over the CONTINUED ON PAGE 15

Scouts from from Chestertown’s Troop 30 and Warrensburg’s Troop 100 attended the demonstration held April 24 in the North Warren Central School cafeteria.

The presentation was offered by the Shire of Glenn Linn, a local chapter of

the Society for Creative Anachronism, a worldwide organization that studies, recreates and reenacts the customs of the Medieval and Renaissance eras.

The Society presents these events as part of their mission to increase awareness and appreciation for the time periods.

Rustic event and wedding venue launched THURMAN — Folks planning on holding a memorable wedding or special event have a new option: the pastoral Thurman setting of the new “Burlap & Beams” enterprise.

Burlap & Beams proprietors Terri Larson and Mechelle Roy will be holding an Open House at their venue from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, May 12 to introduce their enterprise — and various other associated services — to the public.

The open house, says Larson, will showcase the carefully restored historic barns and breathtaking mountain views of this new venue for weddings, receptions, reunions, and other parties. The event will also present vendors from around the region who offer such services as catering, wedding photography, jewelry for bridal parties, floral arrangements and sweets.

Burlap & Beams, which combines rusticity and elegance,

Adirondack Journal - 3

is located at 242 Cameron Road.

With catering arranged by the proprietors, Burlap & Beams offers a memorable setting for bridal brunch picnics, as well as bridal luncheons and dinners in a unique, historic setting. Also, the proprietors can arrange carriage rides, provided by 1000 Acres Ranch Resort. They are also seeking to arrange train transportation through the Saratoga & North Creek Railway.

Larson and Roy encourage organizers to approach them with any event dreams, and they will help realize them at Burlap and Beams. Much work, including installing hardwood floors, has been accomplished to make one of the historic barns suitable for elegant functions, while maintaining its ambiance. The site of Burlap & Beams is the Orley Needham Farm, which in the 1800s hosted Guy Brooks’ Boarding House or the Loveland Hotel & Tavern.

Letter to the Editor To the Adirondack Journal: The average annual school tax paid

by Lake George residential taxpayers is $2,963.

That’s the highest tax of all the 14 school districts within a 20-mile radius of Lake George.

This information comes from the sate Office of Real Property Tax Services. For details, just look at the Facts page on the www.lghalt.org website.

The Lake George school board and administration along with the “Yes” group think that an increase in school taxes is the answer again this year —

but what about future years? High taxes equal lowered home value. No buyers seek out high taxes.

Each time the school tax levy increases, it chases out residents — thereby causing the school population to decline. There’s an average of 22 fewer students per year over the last seven years enrolled in Lake George schools.

The recently contract agreement with the teacher ’s union has the teachers contribute between 12 percent and 15 percent of health insurance premiums, leaving the taxpayer to pick up 85 percent to 88 percent of the costs. With the ever-rising increases in premiums, the taxpayers will be saddled with paying even more money for their in-

surance next year than they did this year. The cost of benefits alone exceeds the maximum amount allowed under the 2.21 percent tax levy cap.

If you are unhappy with the minor concessions made by the teachers’ union, remember who negotiated this contract: Board of Education member Virginia Etu and Superintendent Patrick Dee. They did not stand up for you the taxpayer and caved to the union demands once again. They should be held accountable.

Postal Service bailout a flawed plan

T

he United States Postal Service — the country’s second-largest civilian employer after Wal-Mart — is on the brink of a colossal financial meltdown.

As USPS stares bankruptcy in the face, some people believe it is up the House to do what the Senate has already done and pass legislation to keep the Postal Service and its 571,566 full-time jobs intact.

We do not, and apparently neither does the Postal Service’s management.

It is not surprising that the Postal Service finds itself in this financial quagmire.

The growing popularity of e-mail and electronic bill payments has sent mail volume plummeting in the past decade. In just the past five years, the Postal Service's annual volume declined by 43 billion pieces. First Class mail declined 25 percent in the same period of time.

Faced with billion-dollar-deficits and a business model that is slowly going the way of the 8-track tape, Postal Service officials, to their credit, came up with a restructuring plan they hoped would keep them solvent.

It was a financially prudent strategy that called for the closing of up to 252 mail-processing centers — including the one in Plattsburgh — as well as 3,700 post offices — including many in small, rural communities all over the North Country; places such as Schuyler Falls, New Russia, Riparius, North Hudson, Bakers Mills, Ellenburg and Moriah Corners.

The concept is simple enough — less mail means less need for offices and employees.

The restructuring plan, which also proposed halting Saturday delivery, was supposed to save some $6.5 billion a year — and stop the financial hemorrhage.

In the last five years alone, the Postal Service has lost $25 billion and is projected to lose another $14 billion by the end of this year. It loses $25 million a day.

Only 20 percent of its offices are profitable, and its employee expenses are way out of line with those in the private sector. Wages and benefits for its 571,566 full-time employees account for 80 percent of its operating budget, compared with 61 percent of UPS's and 43 percent of FedEx's.

The average USPS employee makes $83,000 in salary and benefits annually, much more than most other federal employees.

Many post offices and branches that face closure provide very little revenue. In fact, 84 percent of the locations on the closure list take in less than $27,500 in annual revenue and have less than two hours of work a day, according to Dean Granholm, the Postal Service's delivery and operations vice

May 12, 2012

president.

But, instead of allowing the Postal Service to save itself — and the taxpayer — from disaster, Washington is playing election-year politics and has proposed an $11 billion bailout that will keep the Postal Service limping along a few more years.

After that, if the Postal Service is not allowed to eliminate expenses it will need to return with its hand out again, Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe has said.

“It is totally inappropriate in these economic times to keep unneeded facilities open. There is simply not enough mail in our system today,” the Postal Service's board of governors said in a statement.

Nevertheless, the U.S. Senate passed a bailout bill in late April, with senators from both parties lining up in favor.

The bill would save Saturday delivery and rescue about half the mail processing centers the Postal Service wants to close, cutting the list from 252 to 125.

Not surprisingly, the processing centers that would survive are in states whose senators were sponsors of the postal bill — like Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Missouri and Vermont, according to a preliminary list obtained by The Associated Press.

Therein lies the problem.

This is not about “saving an iconic American institution that still delivers 500 million pieces of mail a day,” as bill co-sponsor Sen. Joe Lieberman of Connecticut put it.

It is little more than an election-year gimmick to give senators the ability to stand at a podium in November, pounding their chests while telling voters through toothy grins that they stood against postal closures.

The bailout money is nothing more than a BandAid to get the Postal Service through the election cycle. Without real reform, it remains doomed to extinction.

The bill now goes to the House for consideration, with a May 15 deadline looming when postal officials have vowed to start making cuts.

Let’s hope the outcome will be a long-term plan to save America’s 200-year-old Postal Service, and not another spending binge at the expense of the American taxpayer in the interest of those seeking re-election.

•100 Years Ago – May 1912•

Murder suspect goes free

The first-degree trial of Timothy Hill of Minerva, held before Supreme Court Justice Henry T. Kellogg in Elizabethtown, was concluded May 9, 1912, when the jury, after deliberating on the evidence for three hours, brought in a verdict of Not Guilty.

Hill was accused of causing the death of Mrs. Maurice Loveland of Minerva, his live-in girlfriend, on Aug. 10, 1911 by giving her a dose of strychnine. It was alleged by the prosecution that he forced the poison down the woman’s throat by holding her powerless in his arms, where she died. The defense contends that she drank the poison of her own free will and than threw the empty bottle into the stove, where it was later found.

No less than 100 potential jurors had originally been called and nearly 50 witnesses were examined, 25 of which were called by the prosecution during the trial.

The fact that the woman’s death was caused by the strychnine was clearly established by the contents of the woman’s stomach which was analyzed in Albany and also by the testimony of several physicians and this fact was not disputed by the defense. It was also proved that Hill had a bottle of the poison in his possession before the death of Mrs. Loveland and that he was with her when she died. The defense maintained that the woman obtained the poison without Hill’s knowledge and took her own life.

The defense called Mrs. Emeline O’Donnell, 87, who had to be assisted to the witness stand.

She stated that she had melted two cups of lard for Mrs. Loveland and that Hill had poured them into the sick woman’s mouth to try to counteract the effects of the deadly dose.

The general public opinion at the time was

that Anna Loveland death exemplified the scriptural warning that “the wages of sin is death.” The woman had a husband and four children, whom she left to live with Hill, a man of notoriously bad character. By the testimony of her own son, a 16-year-old boy on the witness stand at Hill’s trial, it was clearly shown that she had a fondness for strong drink and had caused much unhappiness in her family by over-indulging her appetite for it.

For two or three months before her death, Loveland lived with Hill openly at the Minerva home of William O’Donnell, who was a material witness at the trial. It is believed that she had an inclination to return to her family and the couple quarreled frequently. It was said that Hill had intimated several times that he would kill her if she left him. He was insanely jealous and this, the prosecution claimed, was the motive for the alleged crime.

O. Byron Brewster, Council, a young barrister, in summing up, made a stirring, forceful plea for his client. Judge Henry T. Kellogg gave a strictly impartial charge to the jury, submitting for their decision the one question of whether the death of Anna Loveland was brought about by her own hand or by the hand of Hill. Although there was a strong chain of circumstantial evidence against the accused man, no direct evidence had been produced by the prosecution. The accused man did not go on the stand in his own behalf. The jury evidently gave him the benefit of the doubt as they were bound to do. Hill betrayed little or no emotion when the jury gave its not guilty verdict, having been confident of acquittal throughout the trial.

Tim Hill’s early life Timothy Hill was formerly a resident of Horicon and a heavy drinker who had for many years borne a bad reputation. People had

Opinion - Adirondack Journal - 7

a tendency to be afraid and to shy away from him. There was a persistent rumor that he had killed his wife during an argument when he hit her with a flat iron.

His many previous crimes were brought up at trial by former District Attorney Charles R. Patterson of Glens Falls. On Oct. 1, 1878 Hill first ran afoul of the law when he and George “Put” Hays stole two horses, worth $150, with “force and arms” from Jared Hays. Tim spent three months at the penitentiary in Albany for the crime.

On Sept. 10, 1886 he “feloniously and wickedly by force” stole a silver watch worth $25 from Washington Durkee.

Hill was arrested as a suspect in the June 14, 1897 murder of Amasa Mead, 70, of Chestertown, who was shot and killed in Mead’s home on a lonely road outside the village. The man was described as “a peaceable old man” who was on his knees in prayer in his kitchen when the murderer fired a shot gun through a window and Mead was found dead kneeling in front of a chair. Nearly the whole charge of small buckshot, which had been fired using wallpaper for wadding, had entered his body and three of the slugs had entered his heart.

The wall paper was of the same pattern, bearing the same stock number, as the paper in one of the rooms where Hill boarded.

Tim Hill was brought to trial but the Grand Jury failed to find an indictment against him.

One newspaper at the time said that the cruel murder of Amasa Mead was one of the greatest unsolved mysteries ever in northern New York.

Eleven years later, on March 8, 1908, in a drunken monologue at a Horicon hotel barroom, Hill told several men that his cousin, Jay Hill had borrowed his gun and later confessed to him that he was the one who had shot Mead.

Jay Hill was immediately arrested in Warrens-

burgh and taken to the Warren County Jail to be held there without bail for the Grand Jury.

At the time of the hearing, Tim Hill was having a hard time getting over yet another prolonged drinking spree and was in poor condition to testify against his cousin at the hearing and no definite information could be attained.

Jay Hill was not indicted.

After this investigation in 1908, the newspaper said, “The Hills are men about 45 years of age. They are wild fellows and are not held in very high esteem by their fellow townsmen.”

Family lived in turmoil The family had always experienced much upheaval and drama. There are many stories, some acquired from the National Archives, concerning Hill’s father, Timothy Hill Sr., a huge man, who cut his leg badly with an axe when he was a child. He tried to get a Civil War pension, saying that the old injury resulted from the war. His wife, Catherine McGar Ramsey, died in childbirth around 1872 giving birth to a daughter, Mercy A. Hill (later Raymond) who survived.

For many years Cynthia Brace, the wife of Holden Brace, was Hill’s housekeeper and she sometimes tried to pass herself off as Hill’s wife. He was alleged to have had gonorrhea, some say syphilis, from which he supposedly died April 5, 1885 at the age of 71 years but this columnist never found any written proof of this. He was buried in the Leggett Cemetery, Chestertown.

Around 1907 a son of Timothy Hill was killed at Hague when he engaged in an altercation with two young brothers of that village who conducted a blacksmith shop. The younger Hill’s death resulted from a fall from a wagonload of lumber upon which the victim and the two brothers were fighting. The boys were released after an examination by Judge Kiley, who was then District Attorney.

Letters to the Editor School board fails at transparency To the Adirondack Journal: It is troubling to me that Lake George School Board member and candidate for re-election Virginia Etu and the majority of the Board of Education continue to preach transparency, yet fail to practice transparency in the true sense of the word.

Virginia Etu’s colleague on the board, Gerard Humiston was asked specifically about transparency at a board meeting and why the board would not allow more people on a specific committee.

His response with the board agreeing — including incumbent Virginia Etu — was that they do not want to have too many people on a committee because it justifies a quorum and this would require public disclosure.

Is this the same board that says they have “gotten the message” about becoming more transparent? The board will deny this ever took place because after persistent efforts to have the meeting minutes recorded word for word, the board still refuses to do it, and advocates of this practice have been met with stiff resistance.

Peter Brothers Town of Queensbury Lake George School District

Vote for Murphy and Klein for progress To the Adirondack Journal: A change in the Lake George School District Board of Education membership is of utmost importance to guarantee movement towards an efficient school system.

A new member should possess business experience, an analytical mind, and the motivation and tenacity to help initiate changes.

John Murphy and David Klein are two candidates who exhibit the essential qualities needed to guide the school system in the 21st century.

Review their qualifications, check their attendance at board meetings in the last two years, inform yourself about their persistence in obtaining correct information and using their skills and knowledge to provide the school board with alternative suggestions.

These candidates, working together with the board, will assure that the Lake George community is properly represented and most importantly, provide transparency.

Both candidates value education and hold the student as the Number-One priority, as it should be. They favor no cuts in student programs, and endorse the upgrading of school technology to provide students with a nano-tech education.

Also, send a signal that changes to the bureaucracy are needed by voting “No” on the proposed budget. Send a clear message to the present board that they are accountable to those who elected them, and significant changes within the system are necessary. Vote vote Murphy and Klein to start that much-needed process.

Outdoor dining option taken away?

To the Adirondack Journal: I’m from Chestertown, but now I’m in Florida for the winter. I was told that the table for customers in front of the Nice ‘N Easy convenience store in downtown Chestertown was removed.

When I’m in Chestertown, almost every morning I get a coffee and egg sandwich there, and in the afternoon, pizza and a soda.

Are they going to replace it, or do I have to go to Stewart's Shop out on Rte. 8?

Town plan calls for library support To the Adirondack Journal: The new Comprehensive Plan for the town of Warrensburg, recently adopted by unanimous vote of the Town Board, expresses strong support for Richards Library as one of its goals. The following excerpts are from Section G.4. on page 37: “The Town…in recognition of the important role the library plays in the community…should further support the regular operations of the library. As the role of libraries continues to evolve, the Town should remain active in supporting this important community resource…”

Voters will have an opportunity to show their support for the library on May 15 at the school district elections by voting in favor of the library’s proposal on the ballot.

Sincerely, Barbara Whitford Warrensburg

Clarification on library proposition To the Adirondack Journal: The Warrensburg Central School District legal notice published earlier in April stated that the proposed levy for Richards Library would be Proposition #3 on the ballot at the May 15th election at the high school.

However, the school newsletter notes that the proposed levy has been changed to Proposition #2.

There are only two propositions on the ballot, so this change should not cause any confusion, but we want to make sure voters are aware of the change.

Richards Library is not affiliated with the school in any way, and this is the first time a proposition unrelated to the school has ever appeared on the school ballot, as provided by state education law, under which all libraries are chartered.

The proposal will fund the library's operating budget and spread the cost equitably over the library's entire service area, not just the Town of Warrensburg. This will enable the library to use its diminishing general fund balance to finish the new addition without further expense to the public.

Paul Gilchrist Vice President Richards Library

Many motorcycles are far too loud To the Adirondack Journal: Well, here we go again. Warm weather brings out a fair amount of ear-shattering, ground-shaking, fire-breathing, two-wheeled mechanized beasts known as motorcycles. Many of these have inadequate, little, or nonexistent mufflers.

Note to local law enforcement officers: I’m willing to bet lunch

that if my mode of conveyance was as loud and raucous as some of these motorcycles, a traffic ticket would be in the offing.

Selective enforcement? Note to motorcycle riders: Is it really necessary to “burp” the throttle when trying to downshift? Is it really necessary to “burp” the throttle while sitting idle at a corner or red light? What, did you think the engine would stall if you didn’t twist the throttle, or do you just like to draw attention to yourself and ruin your hearing? Is it really necessary to wind up the engine to red line before shifting to produce the maximum amount of noise?

Most of these motorcycles come from the factory with more than adequate mufflers, not unbaffled pipes directly off the exhaust manifold.

Such motorcycles disturb the relative peace and tranquility, not to mention causing permanent hearing loss to not only the rider, but harm to the hearing of innocent citizens nearby.

Public input sought on budget cuts To the Adirondack Journal: Warren County expenditures grew from $72 million in 1998 to $145 million in 2012 while our population only grew 4 percent. We have accumulated $46 million in debt and our annual debt service is estimated to be $3.8 million this year.

At a recent Warren County Board of Supervisors meeting, I proposed a freeze on property taxes, primarily because New Yorkers are over-taxed.

I don’t think taxpayers should continue to be punished for excesses in government spending, and unsustainable mandated expenses — including costs stemming the union-negotiated benefit packages for state and public employees.

Our state has been home to the highest overall taxes during 26 of the past 30 years and we have the highest property taxes in the U.S. (See: www.taxfoundation.org).

People need relief and it has to start somewhere. When do you draw the line?

I believe there are efficiencies and savings in the county budget and I have proposed a number of areas to work on including procurement, medical insurance, energy efficiencies, time management practices, municipal partnerships, outsourcing, applying for mandate waivers and a moratorium on capital projects to allow the county time to pay off some debt.

I am advocating a fact-based discussion, open to the public, on potential privatization of the Westmount Nursing home so that we can responsibly plan for the future. Out of the 62 counties in New York, 32 counties still operate home care or nursing home facilities.

Thirteen including Washington and Saratoga Counties are investigating whether or not to stay in the business because of declining revenues and increasing costs primarily due to county and state negotiated increases in employee benefits.

Negotiations with the public employee unions on contracts will have a dramatic impact on the budget as the county grapples with the rising cost of health insurance and rapidly escalating costs of paying into the public employee retirement and pension system.

There are tough choices to be made. We on the Warren County Board of Supervisors work for you. With your participation and input, I believe we will make the right choices going forward.

Please get informed and let us know how you feel.

WCS school board candidates focus on goals for district

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG – The four candidates for two open seats on the Warrensburg Central School Board of Education revealed their positions publicly this week about the future of the schools and their roles on the school board, if elected Tuesday May 15.

The candidates aired their thoughts during a Meet the Candidates Night held Monday May 8 at the high school.

Two of the candidates — incumbent board member Richelene Morey and former school board member Brian Lace — focused primarily on cost containment and financial efficiency, while challengers Paul Weick and Doug West stressed maintaining and bolstering a top quality educational experience for students.

Both Lace and Morey mentioned as qualifications their extensive experience on the board. Lace noted his lengthy tenure as code enforcement officer for the town and Morey, her years of work in the insurance business, which included financial and budget management chores.

West stressed his background as an infor-

mation technology specialist; and Weick, his years as a teacher at Bolton Central School.

Weick said that since the state is now requiring teacher performance evaluations, his knowledge would be particularly useful in meeting the new expectations. He also said that the maintaining an appropriate demeanor and tone of discussion amongst board members was of prime importance.

Weick said his platform had two basic planks: responsible management and enhancing pride in the schools. He called for exploration of shared services between school districts.

West noted that he was a Warrensburg graduate, and that WCS instructors had given him vital advice on his career, as well as preparing him well for his work. West said he sought to enhance the school’s programs so people would, like him, select Warrensburg as their first choice to raise a family.

West also said he’d pursue bolstering computer literacy, staying on top of computer technology and concentrating on eradicating traces of negativity in the school environment.

Noting his 36 years of local residency, Lace said that the district’s $21 million annual

Word of Life Bible Institute will host a Transnational Association of Christian Colleges and Schools (TRACS) on-site evaluation team visit on May 21 – 24, 2012 for the purpose of evaluating the college for accredited status.

Third party comments are invited and may be addressed to:

25 percent of their health care premiums, which would save taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Morey offered a similar opinion.

“I’m extraordinarily disappointed in the teachers,” she said, noting that the union negotiators were not willing to make concessions, and weren’t willing to collaborate to contain costs.

“This reflects a degree of greed and lack of regard for taxpayers,” she said, noting that many of the teachers weren’t residents of the school district. “I’m very disappointed.”

To reduce the budget, Weick suggested scrapping staff development days and cutting the use of outside consultants.

Chamber awards The Warrensburg Chamber of Commerce is now accepting nominations for “Business of the Year” and “Citizen of the Year” awards. Send in nominations to: Warrensburg Chamber of Commerce, 3847 Main St., Warrensburg NY or via email to: info@WarrensburgChamberCommerce.com. Nominations may also be made via phone, by calling 623-2161.

Include details about what the person or business has accomplished to promote the town and its citizens. Those submitting nominations must include their names and information on how to be contacted. The deadline is May 24.

A dinner will be held on June 14 to honor the those chosen for the awards.

Armed Forces Day concert

GLENS FALLS — Patriotism is a key focus of the Lake George Community Band, and next weekend’s Armed Forces Day Concert by the band will undoubtedly underscore this fact.

budget was too high for Warrensburg, and that he sought to lower it.

“If we don’t curtail costs, we’re going to have this district go bankrupt in several years,” he said.

Lace said that if elected, he’d help achieve solutions to balancing affordability with a quality program, citing that he’d be seeking to lower heating and transportation fuel costs, advocate for tough negotiations on teachers contracts and explore school consolidation.

Noting she was a WCS graduate as well as all her relatives, Richelene Morey said her experience would be useful in striking the balance between quality and affordability.

“It’s an exciting time in the world of education,” she said. “There are a lot of changes occurring.”

She said that the school board needed to focus more on long-term, comprehensive planning of programs, and exploration of consolidation. She also said she supported offering more Advanced Placement courses, while making sure that all students had equal opportunities for accelerated achievement.

Weick pledge to listen to the community, the administration and employees in making policy decisions. He noted that several 2012 WCS seniors were headed to two of the nation’s top colleges.

“I want to assure we maintain the high quality school that we have now,” he said.

“The future of the town depends on it.”

West said that if elected, he’d be seeking to examine trends and help the board get in the forefront of issues, rather than reacting to problems as they occur. As an example, he said that teacher evaluations, to be fair and accurate, should be customized.

Weick suggested that potential teacher contract concessions should be explored in a collaborative manner. “Other districts are getting concessions — should we be getting more in our district,” he asked. West offered a similar view, noting he wasn’t yet aware of details, as he was not yet on the board.

Lace said he was not happy with the recent contract negotiations, and that other districts were having employees pay up to

thom@denpubs.com POTTERSVILLE — The world-class museum of model trains complete with lavish million-dollar layouts is opening for its second season this weekend, and the attraction boasts a new featured diorama.

"Railroads on Parade," a model train museum launched by the internationally acclaimed set designer Clarke Dunham and his wife Barbara, now features a 140-square-feet scale model of railroads on Prince Edward Island.

The new layout joins several other massive, awardwinning layouts, with cityscapes crafted in intricate, realistic detail.

The “Railroads on Parade” museum has been lauded as a major new development in northern Warren County that is expected to boost tourism and bolster the local economy.

The venue opens for its season Saturday May 12.

Dunham is the creator of the famed Citicorp train display in New York City as well as extensive model train layouts in Cincinnati, Chicago, Omaha and Williamsburg, Va. that have been viewed by more than 5 million people, and have been hailed as national attractions.

‘Railroads on Parade’ opens May 12 with new train layout

The model train displays at the Railroads on Parade museum in Pottersville feature world-class, million-dollar layouts that are intricate and realistic. The museum opens to the public Saturday, May 12 to launch its second season.

The new Prince Edward Island layout now in Pottersville was originally commissioned by a wealthy New York City financier for his family’s weekend retreat. Clarke, Barbara and their staff spent more than 2500 hours creating the layout.

This new Prince Edward Island exhibit contains 52 buildings, several of which are exact small scale replicas of original buildings.

Meticulously replicated are lighthouses and the Anne of Green Gables house complemented by a myriad of other detailed other structures.

In total, the museum’s computer-controlled displays incorporate more than fifty trains and trolleys, 2,500 feet of track, hundreds of scale model buildings and thousands trees.

In a press release, Clarke Dunham said the painstaking work in designing the displays gave them an unmatched quality of realism.

“In these exhibits we were able to develop a complete perspective effect creating a total visual link with the backdrops regardless of where you stand as an observer and in which the buildings and scenery actually diminish in perspective size as well,” he said. “It’s an amazing result.”

Railroads on Parade includes a retail shop featuring train memorabilia, model railroad kits, and souvenirs including engineer's hats as well as Adirondack-themed items.

See: www.RailroadsOnParade for details including hours open to the public.

Medieval life

OBITUARIES

from page 1 Their work includes creating and demonstrating the clothing, armor, blacksmithing, weaponry, foods, craftworks, and arts — including calligraphy, weaving, music, and drama — of the era.

Scouts were treated to demonstrations of many aspects of Medieval life.

Chestertown native Tom Apple — now of Warrensburg — told students about the role of archers during the period, their status in society, how they lived and fought, the struggles they faced, and their importance during battles.

Erik Johnsen, the master craftsman of the Glenn Linn group, showed scouts the process of making long bows and arrows.

He brought examples from each stage of construction so scouts could see how a rough piece of woods becomes a finely honed long bow capable of shooting an arrow 100 yards. He also showed the students how arrows were made and described how their metal tips were capable of piercing the armor of the period.

Jonathan Bushey demonstrated how chain-mail armor is created by intricately linking individual pieces together, as well as exhibiting several examples of finished pieces.

Daniel Haley gave students a presentation on the heavy-weapons combat, showing the armaments that Society members use for practice and for re-enactments.

The Society’s weapons are fashioned from materials such as padded PVC

piping and rattan that have the same feel as real weapons but yet meet safety standards.

Haley noted that while many of the Society’s battles may involve as many as 1,000 participants, they often have fewer injuries than the average football game. Haley supervised a combat demonstration in the school gym — his two sons demonstrated the skills and rules of combat while he acted as referee. Scouts were then invited to give mock combat a try by attempting to deliver an effective blow to Haley, who was wearing armor. The scouts thoroughly enjoyed the demonstration and were eager to test Haley’s mettle.

The Society for Creative Anachro-

nism began in 1966 as a backyard party and has since developed into an international organization that has 32,000 members spread across North America, Europe, and virtually every other continent.

The Society is officially divided into 19 kingdoms, and the Shire of Glenn Linn belongs to the Northern Region of the East Kingdom. The Shire covers the area of Northeastern New York and includes all of Warren and Washington counties and parts of Saratoga, Essex, and Hamilton counties. The Shire of Glenn Linn often stages a variety of educational events for schools and civic organizations throughout the area.

President Obama from page 1 world are deciding to build here and hire here,” said Obama.

Obama said the education, training and production that occurs at the region’s nanotech hub is paramount to keeping jobs here at home instead of overseas. He said ramping up the workforce domestically is something that needs to happen for the economy to not only recover, but thrive.

“There are steps we can take as a nation to make it easier for companies to grow and to hire; to create platforms of success,” said Obama. “Everything from giving more people the chance to get the right training and education to supporting new research projects in science and technology.”

Obama joined Gov. Andrew Cuomo for a tour of the college prior to his speech. He viewed a computer chip manufacturing clean room and chatted with college scientists who showed him the tools used to make silicon chip wafers.

This is a “make or break moment for America’s middle class,” he said, and there’s “no excuse for inaction,” so he announced a to-do list for Congress and urged citizens to contact their legislators to plead for action.

“It’s about the size of a Post-It note, so every member of Congress should have time to read it,” said Obama, breaking into a grin at audience laughter. “Hopefully they can check things off the list, like when Michelle gives me a list, I check it off.”

No. 1 on the list, which is posted at www.whitehouse.gov for everyone to view, is to “reward American jobs and eliminate tax incentives to ship jobs overseas.” Obama proposed passing legislation that gives companies a new 20 percent tax credit for the cost of moving operations back to the U.S. He said Congress should pay for the credit by eliminating tax breaks for sending business abroad, which are currently in place.

“What we need to do now is to make it easier for companies to do the right thing and one place to start is our tax rates. At the moment, companies get tax breaks for moving factories, jobs, profits overseas,” said Obama. “Meanwhile, companies that choose to stay here are getting hit with one of the highest tax rates in the world and that doesn’t make

sense.”

That to-do list goal shouldn’t be hard to accomplish, he said, because thanks to advances in technology, it’s actually becoming more advantageous to manufacture in the U.S. “Now, it’s getting more expensive to do business in places like China; wages are going up, shipping costs are going up, meanwhile American workers are getting more and more efficient (and) companies located here are becoming more and more competitive,” said Obama.

He pointed to GlobalFoundries in Malta, the location he was originally scheduled to tour and speak at, as a shining example of attracting cutting-edge business and keeping jobs here.

“Companies like IBM, GlobalFoundries could decide to pack up and move elsewhere but chose to stay in Upstate New York because it made more sense to build here,” said Obama.

Congressman Chris Gibson, R-Kinderhook, who represents the 20th District that includes Saratoga County, said Obama’s visit speaks to the work being done locally. He also agreed with the President’s call for bipartisan support to get things done.

“I think leaders in both parties should work together to move our country forward, grow the economy, create jobs, work toward a balanced budget,” said Gibson. “I call on leaders of both parties to take on those goals and help move our country forward.”

Another “task” Obama put before Congress is to “invest in a new hire tax credit for small businesses,” which would give a 10 percent income tax credit to firms that create new jobs or increase wages this year.

“We should make it easier for them to succeed,” he said.

Obama also challenged Congress to “cut red tape” in the mortgage market to help homeowners refinance, invest in affordable clean energy and create a Veterans Job Corps to help veterans from Afghanistan and Iraq get jobs.

“Of course it’s not enough just to give them the list, we’ve also got to get them started crossing things off the list,” said Obama.

Obama spent a few minutes shaking hands with lucky crowd members and VIP guests before heading back to the airport just before 2 p.m. and boarding Air Force One for his flight home.
