PLATTSBURGH Ñ Plattsburgh artist Shawna Armstrong will be welcoming the Depot TheatreÕ s 2014 season in Westport with her solo art show Ò DestinationsÓ in the theaterÕ s gallery.

The light-hearted show, the artist’s first solo show, will feature mostly digital collage work. A graphic designer by training, Armstrong has immersed herself in collage in recent years, while still pursuing a successful career as a graphic designer.

One thing Armstrong enjoys about digital collage as a medium, where she finds many of the images she turns into art online, is researching an image of a person or place she finds.

“I’ll find this really beautiful woman and have no idea who she is and IÕ ll look up and sheÕ s actually like a famous star from the 30s. IÕ ll learn her history; it even adds like a new level of depth to the work,Ó she explained.Ó It makes you look at it a different way than the person next to you.Ó But a destination, according to Armstrong, is more than just a point on a map. It can be a memory as well. One series in her show, for instance, features images reminiscent of GrandmaÕ s house.

SUNY professor translates poetry at Carnegie Hall

By Shawn Ryan

shawn@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ Plattsburgh State University professor Dr. Alexis Levitin was just honored by receiving a trip to Carnegie Hall, where four poems that he had translated were put to music.

The musical arangements were based on the original poems by the iconic Portugese poet Eugenio de Andrade, whose work Levitin has been translating for 25 years. Levitin accompanied de Andrade on a reading tour as well of the United States.

For Levitin, the transition from the written poem to the musical world is a natural one, especially for de AndradeÕ s work. Ò My whole attitude toward the translation of poetry is to treat it rather like music,Ó he said. Ò I was consciously aware that music had to be my central concern.Ó

For Levitin it was the first time he had been to Carnegie Hall, and he felt honored to be a part of the program.

Levitin has been translating poetry for 40 years. His day job, he says, is as an English professor. He has been at SUNY Plattsburgh since the early 1980s.

Levitin said that when translating poetry, alliteration is easier to find in the English language. Ò Part of it is luck, but you have to be looking for it. If youÕ re looking for it, the combination of your attentive and persistent search for the alliteration combined with luck will result in things like that,Ó he said.

One of de AndradeÕ s poems featured at Carnegie Hall, that Levitin translated, was September Sea: It was all luminous: sky, lips, sand.

The sea was near, trembling with foam.

Bodies or waves: to and fro, to and fro, sweet, light - just rhythm and whiteness.

Happy, they sing; calm, they sleep; awakened, they love, swelling the silence.

It was luminous, young, with wings.

The sea was near.

Golden. Utterly pure.

Annual Strides for James to be held CHAZY Ñ The Second Annual Strides for James event is headed back to the hometown of its namesake, James Wilson, in 2014.

James Wilson was an avid outdoorsman with a kind heart who was always willing to outstretch his hand to help someone else. He was just 26 when he died in a motorcycle accident in 2012. Strides for James is a 5K/10K/fun run that raises funds for the James Wilson Memorial Scholarship at Clinton Community College. The scholarship provides an opportunity to channel JamesÕ giving spirit and help others. Ò Our family is so appreciative of the overwhelming outpouring of support and generosity from the community (sponsors, acts of kindness, etc.); which has made Strides for James a community and family event that not only honors JamesÕ memory and keeps him alive, but also gives back to others through the schol-

arship established at Clinton Community College, just as James always did,Ó said the Wilson family.

In 2013, the first Strides for James race attracted more than 250 people and raised over $5,000 for the scholarship fund. We hope to surpass that amount in 2014. The scholarship committee will also award the first scholarship recipient at the start of the May 10 event.

Strides for James will be an event for the entire family, with a 1-mile childrenÕ s fun run and walk in addition to the 5K and 10K runs. Additionally, the HeartÕ s Delight Farm Heritage Exhibit will be open to visitors, as will Miner InstituteÕ s horse and dairy barns. There is also a brief equine demonstration planned. There will be a little something for everyone, whether you plan to run or not!

SUNY Model UN hosts Crimea-focused discussion

The Burgh - 3

By Teah Dowling

denpubs@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ Over the course of January and February, protests became widespread throughout Ukraine after Ukrainian president Viktor Yanukovych, who was in favor of having closer ties to Russia, disappeared.

After this, Russian operatives began seizing buildings in Crimea and passed a bill annexing Crimea. Recently, Russia has threatened sending gas shipments to Europe and ruled out the alliance sending forces to non-Nato member Ukraine.

This was part of the introduction to Ò Crisis in Crimea,Ó a panel hosted by SUNY PlattsburghÕ s Model UN Club, April 14, at the Cardinal Lounge in the Angell College Center. Ò The crisis in Ukraine has been getting a lot of news coverage in the past couple of months,Ó said Adam Saccardi, host of the event and member of the Model UN Club. Ò We (Model UN Club) felt that it was a good opportunity to inform the campus about what is going on, to provide an opportunity to come and ask questions.Ó For this event, a panel of four professors discussed the current controversy in Crimea. The four professors were Dr. Dhimitri Qirjo, associate professor of economics and finance, Dr. Connie Shemo, associate professor of history, Dr. Daniel Lake, assistant professor of political science and Dr. Forrest Studebaker, adjunct lecturer of political science.

Each professor was chosen by recommendation and along with their knowledge of the crisis, Ukraine and international affairs. Ò We (Model UN Club) were trying to put together a diverse panel to get different perspectives,Ó said Veronica Marchello, event coordinator of Model UN. Ò We wanted to make this as diverse as pos-

sible.Ó During this event, there were seven questions asked to the panel. Each professor on the panel had three minutes to answer each question and then the floor opened to the audience for other questions or remarks, leaving approximately 20 minutes to each question.

In the beginning of the panel, the questions served as a warm-up and a catch up for people who were not aware of the crisis in Crimea. The beginning questions consisted of who the major players were, and the costs and benefits of their involvement in Ukraine.

Later on, the questions became more indepth, as the panel was asked to answer questions consisting of whether Russia should be considered to be a military threat to all of Europe, and if Russia was likely to continue forcibly annexing part of Ukraine and if other nations in Eastern Europe are or should be easily threatened.

After approximately an hour and a half of answering questions and discussing, the final question of the night was given out, and that was, Ò What do you expect in

the future from this crisis?” Ò WeÕ re not going to see a massive economic break,Ó Lake said after the question was asked. Ò I expect to see a continuing order in Ukraine until they find a national leader that is not corrupt.Ó While new advancements or setbacks of the crisis in Ukraine continue to happen, the Model UN Club said they hope that the students will keep track. Ò The Model UN Club tries to increase awareness of international events in general,Ó Saccardi said. Ò IÕ m hoping that they not only gain the obvious knowledge on whatÕ s going on, understanding the crisis a little better, but also just on the interest in knowing whatÕ s going on in the world, an interest in informing themselves about international crises and current events in general.Ó Last semester, the panel Ò Is China the next geo-political rival of the U.S.?” took place, and the club intends to put on more panels in the upcoming semesters to keep giving awareness of current events to students of all majors.

The Burgh Editorial

To frack or not to frack?

P

oliticians have a knack for skirting issues which might cost them votes at the ballot box, or worse, campaign dollars on the road to election. Never has this been more apparent than in Gov. Andrew CuomoÕ s refusal to take a stand on the growing fracking debate.

Few environmental issues in recent memory have galvanized the opposing sides like hydraulic fracturing, better known as fracking, has. Far from a distant national issue that has no resonance to the North Country, New York is one of 33 states in the Lower 48 where shale gas formations have been identified as targets for fracking. The massive and much coveted Marcellus and Utica formations cover all of western and much of central New York, lapping at the very foothills of the Adirondacks. And these are only the formations they have so far discovered.

Could there be more in the mountains themselves?

FrackingÕ s history goes back to 1947, when it was first used on a well in Grant County, Kansas to stimulate gas production. Fracking itself is a technique used for extracting natural gas trapped in shale gas formations be injecting a myriad of chemicals and massive amounts of water into the ground, causing the shale to fracture, releasing the gas held in the shale. A technique called horizontal drilling, perfected in the early 1990s, then captures a portion of the newly released gas, and pumps it to the surface.

Two issues with fracking become obvious to anyone who doesnÕ t align themselves with the oil and gas industry. The first, is that these companies are not bound by the 1974 Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), and do not have to disclose what potentially deadly chemicals they are pumping into the ground. Most of these chemicals, which are trucked around the country to well sites, would generate a hazmat spill response if they were released on land.

But because of lobbying, and deep national political penetration by individuals from the oil and gas industries (potential fodder for a later editorial), the fracking industry was written out of the SDWA. They simply do not have to say what chemicals they are pumping into the ground that was just fractured, and can thus seep throughout that ground.

Second, is the fact that the gasses trapped in the shale are suddenly released, and can course throughout the newly fractured shale wherever they meet a path of little resistance. Unlike classic oil drilling, where an underground pool of oil is extracted at a specific drilling point, fracking allows the gas to go virtually anywhere underground; into drinker water wells, to the surface to be released into the atmosphere, or back into

the extraction point to be captured. A great deal of the gas is caught and extracted, but not all.

Antidotes abound of contaminated ground water, where people are able to set their tap water, or water in a stream, on fire. Incidents of sudden bizarre illnesses in people, livestock and wild animals cropping up suddenly around a cluster of wells abound as well. Unfortunately, until the federal government commissions a conclusive study of these incidents, they remain Ò antidotes,Ó and are dismissed by many as just that. How many antidotes constitute a fact? How many people have to die of cancer, or lose their home to contamination before it constitutes a public health emergency? The federal government jumped all over General Motors after a handful of people died as a result of alleged ignition issues. Likewise the spinach industry has barely recovered from a government overreaction to an e-coli outbreak a few years ago, but where is the government now? The fox is running the hen house, and the fox if getting rich doing it.

It is time for Gov. Cuomo to be the adult in the room, and admit that fracking is responsible for both environmental and personal destruction wherever it is used. Yes, we need to get out from under foreign fossil fuels, but at what cost?

We canÕ t drill in Anwar, Alaska because it might harm some caribou, but we know that fracking does much worse, and it does it right in our back yards.

Proponents inevitably argue about the potential jobs and money that accompany these wells.

Antidotally, a family here or there might make some money leasing their land to a company to frack, but its seldom the monetary boon its made out to be. ItÕ s normally far from enough to abandon a contaminated house and start over again somewhere else. And, the family leasing their land for a well canÕ t guarantee that their neighborsÕ wells, neighbors who were not paid by the gas company, wonÕ t become contaminated.

Yes, people are put to work at these wells, or in trucking the chemicals, but they would also be put to work building less destructive environmental projects like wind farms. Much of north-western Clinton County is now covered by job and energy producing wind mills. As of press time today, they have yet to contaminate a single well.

WeÕ re left to wonder yet again what type of political algorithm Gov. Cuomo is employing to make his decision on fracking in New York.

Money versus votes, cheaper gas versus the safety of the people and the environment. ItÕ s time for the governor to choose. Ñ Denton Publications Editorial Board

A job well done is worth doing

A

recent survey by the website CareerCast.com came up with a list of the 10 most desirable careers and rounded out the report with the 10 worst careers. IÕ ve always been of the opinion that any job was far better than no job, but then again I come from a different era where we were happy to be employed.

In general terms, one looked at their bank account and their lifestyle. If the career path addressed those needs and they were satisfied with the workload, that was far more important than what a poll would tell us about popularity.

LetÕ s look at what the survey says are the top 10 careers accordDan Alexander ing to CareerCast.comÕ s Ò 2014 Jobs Rates Report:Ó 1. Mathematician Thoughts from 2. University Professor (Tenured) Behind the Pressline 3. Statistician 4. Actuary 5. Audiologist 6. Dental Hygienist 7. Software Engineer 8. Computer Systems Analyst 9. Occupational Therapist 10. Speech Pathologist Really? A Mathematician outscored all the other career choices and ranked No. 1? At No. 2, just behind mathematician, is the tenured university professor? When I was growing up I just canÕ t remember anyone naming off any of these top 10 positions. I should know since my classmates and I at St. LukeÕ s First Grade class in Erie, Penn., were highly sought after for our opinions on career choices in the Erie Daily Times back in 1960. Nurses, fireman, astronauts, police officers, doctors, and president all rated pretty high as I recall, but not a one is on this list for 2014.

So, what are the worst jobs in the 2014 Job Rates Report?: 1. Lumberjack 2. Newspaper Reporter 3. Enlisted Military Personnel 4. Taxi Driver 5. Broadcaster 6. Head Cook 7. Flight Attendant 8. Garbage Collector 9. Firefighter 10. Corrections Officer These careers are now considered the worst jobs one can have? Times have sure changed.

What would Clark Kent think today about being a mild mannered mathematician fighting for truth, justice and the American way? It’s hard to understand what the criteria was for selecting these jobs, but it doesnÕ t seem possible that a newspaper reporter nor a lumberjack, for that matter, are the worst jobs.

The report goes on to say that a newspaper reporter and lumberjack are at the bottom of the Jobs Rated Report in part due to dwindling hiring prospects. Dim hiring prospects according to the report are a recurring theme among the jobs ranked at the bottom of the report. Income and stress are noted as contributing factors.

I donÕ t know of too many jobs that donÕ t entail some income challenges, especially when starting out, and stress can certainly add some excitement to an otherwise boring day. But the work we perform, while to some may seem mundane or of little quality, is a very personal choice and is based on our perception of happiness from our own unique perspective.

There is so much more to oneÕ s life vocation then to stack it up against all the other job titles available and then do some sort of comparison. Reports like this do a great disservice to working America. Every job is worth doing and provides some form of public service to our fellow man and to the overall economics of the nation. Pride in oneÕ s work is so much more than the rate of pay and the ease at which one can perform the job.

Style & Substance: An energizing spring column ASK style & substance creative life coaching solutions Sally Meisenheimer and Michele Armani

Dear Readers: We often get quick questions that require quick, short-andsweet, answersÉ so we have decided to group these together for a energizing spring column. Happy SPRING! Q: My girlfriends often ask me to go shopping with them so they can try things on and get some honest feedback. Some of the outfits are truly awful. What should I say that doesn’t hurt feelings but helps my friends find the right look?

A: Verify that they want honest feedback before you get started. Once shopping, ask them to only present the outfits that they think are pretty good and then comment honestly…specifically about fit, length, color and/or qualities that flatter their best features. Targeted comments move the focus to the look and not the person, thereby minimizing the potential for hurt feelings. If really at a loss, discuss when they would wear it and with whatÉ . fleshing out the whole outfit with shoes and accessories will sometimes make it clear that it is goodÉ or not so good.

Q: You often talk about updating wardrobes, homes, etcÉ everything in my home is dated, like 1980’s, where do I start?

A: Set the mood with a little Cyndi Lauper playing in the background and decide that this girl is going to have fun joining the 21st century. Start with the wooden furniture in the room(s).

Clean it all with a lustery wood cleaner. Most wood furniture is classic in style and can be incorporated into any updates you make. Next, if you have stuffed/upholstered furniture, decide which pieces you like, and then try to experiment with patterns and textures; a little layering, a few pillows, new colors, mixing florals with plaids and prints…..take some risks and your style choices can go a long way! Lastly add a fresh coat of paint from the palette you are using for accessories. Be bold in your choice

Elmore SPCA

of color, you will find that a bright setting will reenergize your surroundings.

Q: I see a lot of women with great haircuts/colors, but always come away from the salon disappointed. Why can I not seem to get it right?

A: First, tell them you LOVE their hair and ask those women who cuts and colors it! Most women will take this as a huge compliment and share the details of their stylist. Try them out, and be sure to share how you came to be a client. We believe that everyone responds to a sincere and genuine compliment and your new stylist is no different. He or she will be flattered that you made the effort to seek him or her out of the crowd. We believe that youÕ ll have the best luck with a stylist who takes the time to understand your hair type and asks questions about your lifestyle. Bring a picture/photo and ask for honest feedback, BEFORE the process starts. If they say it wonÕ t work for your hair type/face shapeÉ they are the professionals, believe them! Hold out on making your next appointment by washing and styling yourself for a week to see how you manage your new look. If you are struggling, ask for an appointment for styling instructions.

Q: This may seem petty but I find myself in this situation often

in most homes. This distinguished gentleman just needs some tender loving Rebecca Burdo •643-2451; info@elmorespca.org care to become healthy!

With a steady and healthy diet we are confident that he will be Come in and meet this great dog who would love to laze the day away on your floor!***UPDATE***Calhoun is now neutered and is doing much better now that he has put on some healthy weight. Although he has shown no aggression towards cats or dogs at the shelter he did show aggression toward both when he went home with a great family. Unfortunately, Calhoun had to come back to the shelter and needs to be the only pet in the home. He is a loving dog that needs a home where he will get lots of love and attention. This lug is really very affectionate, and he just adores to be loved by humans and children.

Calhoun is one of the sweetest dogs we have met in a long time! He was rescued from being euthanized in a high kill pound due to lack of space. This loving dog will smother your face in kisses!

He loves everyone he meets!

He is very thin at 44lbs and he was a little dehydrated when he arrived at Elmore SPCA. He was even more thin when he was brought to the high kill pound! This guy is on a special meal plan and is doing better every day. All he wants to do is to be with people. He really wants to belong to a family and will do well

Leonardo is a cool cat that was taken in by a concerned citizen in the town of West Chazy, NY. The resident cat didnÕ t take to well to Leonardo, an intact male, so the cat was brought to Elmore SPCA. Leo is a sweet cat that seems to get along with every human that he has met.

enough that I welcome your advice. I love to entertain but I find that many people do not RSVP to an invitation. Is this a lost social courtesy? I find myself calling my guests a few days before a gathering to find out if they plan to attend. I find this awkward for both of us. Do you have suggestions for how to handle this with tact and grace?

A: We share your frustration and believe that responding is still a social courtesy that should be paid. Good manners never go out of style. We applaud your straightforward approach to getting your numbers set; however, you may want to try an evite. Many of us are electronically connected and you may find your guests respond more quickly and with greater frequency when they can reply via email or text. While this may seem a bit far removed from a warm response, you may find your guests appreciate the convenience and will RSVP as the new habit.

Q: My mother recently signed up with an on line dating service. My father died quite a few years ago and while I do not have an issue with my mother dating and meeting new people, I am finding that she is not good at dating. In fact, she is rather aggressive and even a bit demanding of her dates. How can I delicately talk with my mother about this situation?

A: Your mother may be dating in the same way she approached dating with your father, years ago and years younger.

You may begin the conversation with asking your mother what qualities she is looking for in a companion. Having a non-threatening talk about dating in general may help her begin to clarify as she gets out there. She may be looking for a replacement for your dad and this may breed too much familiarity. She may have the expectation that any new man will respond to her in the same way your father did. This conversation can help her see what her expectations are and if they are realistic, or notÉ she could be missing out on discovering a wonderful new and different type of relationship.

Nicholas Dubay

By Pete DeMola

pete@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ This weekÕ s harried installment of calling members of PlattsburghÕ s creative community and asking them Sarah Palinesque gotcha questions sees us cornering Nicholas Dubay, the organizer of SaturdayÕ s open mic event at the Koffee Kat, on a dreary Tuesday morning.

What are you doing right now?

Promoting the event on Facebook. IÕ m trying to invite more people and get local musicians and poets involved to see if theyÕ re willing to show up.

WhatÕ s a neat place in Plattsburgh you think more people should know about?

The Imaginarium [ChildrenÕ s Museum] is great place for kids, but itÕ s also got a lot of great things adults can do too, like the giant Lite-Brite board. IÕ ve gone there several times with my child and itÕ s just fun. ThereÕ s lot of cool science and I donÕ t think you get too old for that kind of stuff.

Agreed. Best place to go on a gloomy spring day?

The Saranac River Trail is beautiful. You can go on the crappiest day and itÕ s just nice. It puts a lot of things in perspective.

I need a wardrobe update. Where should I go?

It’s a tossup. The first place to check would be Dress Code.

It is secondhand, but they do have a variety... I normally try to buy secondhand when I buy clothing. The Fashion Exchange is also pretty great, thatÕ s over on Boynton Square.

Tell us something unique about yourself.

[Pause] I absolutely love comic books and I think the greatest comic book shop IÕ ve ever been to in my entire life happens to be in Plattsburgh... and thatÕ s Fantastic Planet. The shop owners are just delightful. Whenever you describe something, they know exactly what youÕ re talking about. ItÕ s a really good vibe and every purchase you make is supporting them and keeping the hobby alive. With todayÕ s digital world, itÕ s not the same... the feeling of holding a comic in your hands is kind of like an art form.

Join Nicolas Saturday, April 26 at the Koffee Kat for their second community open mic night: 6:30pm, free. Visit them on Facebook for more info.

Battle of Plattsburgh book signing planned Plattsburgh native returns for book signing

tually a very interesting story because it took place on the lake, and on the land. It was wide in scope, there were attacks from MontrŽ al to Plattsburgh. Plattsburgh was attacked twice which I didnÕ t realize,Ó he said. Ò The more I read the more I realized that this was a great story.Ó Inspired by the number of young volunteers who left their homes and school to take part in the fight against the battle hardened British regulars, BeboÕ s story developed around two boys who took part in the battle, one on the lake, and one on the land. Hungry for adventure and a desire to defend their town, the pair volunteer,

By Shawn Ryan

shawn@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ Plattsburgh native and Boston transplant Joe Bebo is bringing his Battle of Plattsburgh inspired novel to town, and he hopes that people enjoy reading it as much as he did writing it.

Bebo, a 1965 graduate of Plattsburgh High School, moved to Boston after high school to pursue a career in music. Over that career he played drums for the likes of Van Morrison, and a myriad of Boston bands. When computers hit the scene, he learned that trade, and has worked as a computer programmer for years.

Novels, however, have become his love.

Bebo has been experimenting with novel writing for 20 years, but Ò of Lake, Land and Liberty, the Battle of Plattsburgh in the War of 1812” is the first he has published. Ò The easy part, the fun part, is the writing.

The hard part is the publishing and the selling,Ó he said.

Bebo grew up hearing about the Battle of Plattsburgh, but it wasnÕ t until he read a book about the War of 1812, which dedicated an entire chapter to the seminal battle, that he realized just how important the battle really was.

He was inspired to learn more, and returned to Plattsburgh to visit the War of 1812 Museum.

At the museum he discovered local author Keith HerkaloÕ s book Ò The Battles of Platts-

and each becomes a hero in their own part of the far flung battle.

The novel itself took Bebo a year to write, and another year refining and checking for historical accuracy. He published it this past December, and has several stops in Plattsburgh to market the book around the upcoming 200th anniversary of the battle.

Bebo will be at the War of 1812 Museum April 26 at 3 p.m. for a signing, a talk about the writing of the book, and about the battle itself.

Other events are planned for future dates, and will be reported in the North CountrymanÕ s Northern Calendar.

Shawna Armstrong From page 1

burgh,Ó which became his Bible, and the outline for the historical fiction novel. Ò In reading the history I really became convinced there was a great story here. It was ac-

Stefanik

From page 1 SMALL BUSINESS GROWTH Stefanik said the countryÕ s business climate is unfavorable and comprehensive reform is needed to allow small businesses to grow and thrive. Ò The current tax code is riddled with loopholes that have led the country in the direction of crony capitalism,Ó she said. Ò We have to start from scratch and get back to a place where small businesses are making decisions themselves.Ó During the half-hour phone interview, the candidate spoke briskly and articulately as if she was giving a stump speech and repeatedly referred back to her small business background.

Stefanik, 29, currently wears many hats with Premium Plywood Products, her familyÕ s business that employs over 20 people in Albany County: Ò Marketing, sales... you know how it is with small businesses,Ó she said. Ò We all play many roles.Ó The candidate said this experience uniquely positions herself

old style telephone? Does she have cheesy vintage fabric? Some of these pieces are meant to evoke your own memories,Ó she said.

Others pieces are meant to evoke the same sort of mental trip to a point in your own history.

Meanwhile, Armstrong has her own destinations in mind. She and her boyfriend Shawn Parrotte are preparing for a year-long trek around the country while they determine where they would most like to live.

One of the beauties of graphic design and digital art though, is that ArmstrongÕ s studio is exactly the size of her laptop. She will continue to design and sell her work from the road through the website www.ETSY.com. Ò ETSY is a site kind of like eBay, but just for artists. Everything is sort of like handmade vintage, itÕ s actually really big, mostly women. People go to this site looking for handmade stuff to support local artists.Ó Destinations will run from May 3 to June 2. The Depot Theatre will open their 2014 season with Ò My Way: A Musical Tribute to Frank Sinatra.Ó

as a candidate who can combat the challenges facing the district. Ò We have to deal with regulations that the industry faces,Ó she said, citing tightened EPA regulations and federal statutes that she feels have grown more expansive over time.

Stefanik said she envisions a return back to a Ò main street economyÓ consisting of individual and small businesses contributing to robust local economies: Ò They service local schools, businesses and are done literally on kitchen tables,Ó she said. Ò ThatÕ s what makes my background unique: we do business day-to-day with hundreds of small businesses.Ó Stefanik said the key to job growth is tax reform, getting rid of government-imposed burdens and repealing the Affordable Care Act. Another measure is exploring increased partnerships with Canadian businesses and promoting tourism of the districtÕ s natural resources that she called Ò one of the most beautiful places in the country.Ó Ò We have to encourage people to start small businesses that will draw in more tourism and will allow them to set down roots here,Ó she said.

Stefanik was born in Albany County and moved to Willsboro in mid-2013 after a series of positions in Washington DC. According to her bio, those included prepping 2012 Vice Presidential Candidate Paul Ryan (R-Wisconsin) for his debates with Vice President Joe Biden and a three-year stint with the Bush Administration working with the Chief of Staff’s Office where she Ò assisted in overseeing the policy development process on

all economic and domestic policy issues.Ó Documents from the state board of elections show that she switched her voter registration to Essex County from Albany County on April 14, 2013.

HEALTH CARE The Affordable Care Act is a job killer, said the candidate, citing the higher premiums forced on her familyÕ s business Ñ they skyrocketed 30 percent, she said. Those increases, paired with higher deductibles and higher out-of-pocket co-pays, forced them to make a choice between absorbing costs or hiring additional employees.

The company eventually switched insurance programs. Ò This is a lose-lose for small businesses,Ó she said.

Armed with the trio of increased costs, Stefanik expressed criticism of how the sweeping reforms were presented to the public and cited discussions with voters she has had on the campaign trail since she announced her candidacy last August. Ò People were coming to us with questions at meet and greets,Ó she said. Ò There was a fundamental lack of certainty Ñ they were approaching us with letters and had no idea of what to do next.Ó The candidate said while she thinks health care is a vital national issue that needs to be addressed, itÕ s important for the country to Ò take pride in cost-effective and high-quality care.Ó EditorÕ s Note: To read the full story, including the candidateÕ s thoughts on Social Security and term limits, visit theburgh.com.

They never give up!

I

was driving past the farm in Chazy thinking about a friend who passed away. The sunny skies had turned to rain, while I was on my way to his funeral service. ItÕ s not where I wanted to be, but where I had to be. No one wants to attend a friendÕ s funeral. My respect for the man would not let me stay home.

It was about 8 years ago; maybe more, maybe less. It really doesnÕ t matter. Part of my conservation job at the time was to walk the farm to check for any hazardous products on site that needed to be discarded properly before an easement went through.

On this farm I had about a mile of stream bank to walk and I needed to do both sides of the river; half a dayÕ s cruise through brush, vines and tangles along the river. I looked forward to being outside.

I have walked a hundred farms in my day and have seen the usual junk piles along stream banks. Plastic jugs, old cars, hay wagons and the usual collection of ÒI canÕ t get rid of thatÓ steel collections on stone walls that every farmer has. ÒI t may be useful somedayÓ i s what is usually said.

This farm was different though. After walking a stretch of river, I found nothing, no junk, wasted wagons or tires to show the presence of humans. What I did find was a river that was a stream walkerÕ s heaven. Between those tree lined shores, I found a wildlife sanctuary that was unbelievable. There were wood ducks, mallards and other birds. Fish, frogs and many other forms of wildlife

www.the-burgh.com all lived within or near the waters. Grassy lined banks in some areas, along with Black Willows, Red Maple and other riparian trees and shrubs held the banks together. Clear water was feeding Lake Champlain.

After walking back to the farm headquarters, my report to the farmer was short with cleanup items, but long on praise for what he and the family were doing. What I

By Rich Redman thought I would find versus what I did was a grand surprise. The human past was not there to haunt anyone.

I left the farm and drove east toward the four corners, on the knoll by the tiny cemetery. I love that spot, it reminds me of Illinois or some mid-western state that is big on farm fields. As I looked back towards the farm I was proud to know that I knew that farmer, and prouder still of how he took care of that farm.

Dutch has done a great job!

Yesterday evening before sundown, I was walking down the road. I live just down the road from a small family farm and I enjoy walking past it every now and then, just to get farms back into my life.

This working farm has a stream running through it and it is absolutely beautiful. There are no cows in the stream; the banks

The Burgh - 15 are growing up with willow, alders and grasses. The floodplain is connected to the stream. The land floods the way it’s supposed to and gently recedes back to the channel with no damage. I know there are trout in the stream. I need to ask permission to try a fly or two in some of those runs, pools and glides that flow through the old pasture land. The stream bends and meanders through the property and adds a value that most people donÕ t see. They just drive by.

I see its value. ItÕ s a haven for trout, woodcock, turkeys and grassland birds. I know the kids on the farm enjoy it too. I have heard rumors that they know where every trout lies in waiting, for a worm or buggy meal. Downstream in the boulder section, I saw stoneflies hatching out last year, a sign of clean water running through this farm, feeding the lake. Tom, Belinda and their sons deserve a thank you from all of us streamwalkers.

Here are two farms that have beautiful streams connecting to Lake Champlain.

Farming is not an easy adventure in life. The roller coaster ride of farm economics stresses the best, but they never give up. New York farmers are doing great conservation work to help reduce and stop pollution.

Its farm families like these that make conservation farming a way of life. Thank You! Dedicated to Marinus ÒD utchÓ R overs.

Rest in Peace my friend.
