GETTING PREPARED

IN PLATTSBURGH

Smith Weed, the President of Plattsburgh

shaun@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ ItÕ s a small, interconnected world, and many in the North Country are on the edge of their seats watching the progression of both the Ebola and Enterovirus D-68 viruses in the United States.

At the Champlain Valley PhysicianÕ s Hospital in Plattsburgh, plans are already in place and staff are preparing to respond to these potential threats. From first responders to inter-agency coordination, the hospital and the county on the whole are attempting to get out in front of the threat, and at the same time CONTINUED ON PAGE 3

Club to “ruck” for struggling veterans Charity fights soldier suicide

By Shawn Ryan and Morgan Rugan shawn@denpubs.com

Saranac High School senior Olivia Klooster holds a picture of US Army soldier Neil Davis, who she’ll be “rucking” for Oct. 18.

PLATTSBURGH Ñ Saranac High SchoolÕ s Freedom Club is working to combat the epidemic of veteran suicide, and theyÕ re hoping to draw community support for their efforts October 18 in Plattsburgh.

The 41 seniors involved in the club will be Ò ruckingÓ to raise money for veterans who suffer from Post-Traumatic Stress (PTS) and Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). Students will carry weighted backpacks, or ruck sacks, as a fundraiser for the charity Active Heroes Carry the Fallen, a non-profit which fights against veteran suicide.

According to Elise Beaulieu, founder and advisor of the Freedom Club, 22 veterans

who suffer from PTS/TBI take their own lives every day in this country. Many experts believe this number is a low estimate. Ò They (active heroes) have addressed the unfortunate epidemic of veteran suicide,Ó said Beaulieu. Ò The charity was started by Sergeant Justin Fitch; itÕ s in his honor that we ruck. We carry the torch for him.Ó The four mile ruck will take place at the US Oval in Plattsburgh on October 18, from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. It is open to the public, and Beaulieu hopes anyone concerned about veteransÕ issues will attend. Freedom club members are raising $22 each in order to take part in the ruck, symbolic of the 22 veterans a day who take their own life. Participants can contribute any donation amount they would like.

Anyone wishing to participate should bring their own backpack and soft weights from five to 30 pounds.

As part of the event, Freedom Club students are required to visit the PTSD Memorial Wall on Facebook to select a veteran who

Book on Smith Weed: The President of Plattsburgh Mark Barie writes on the most influential man in Clinton County

By Shawn Ryan

shawn@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ Few know of the days when a Weed was the President of Plattsburgh.

Local author Mark Barie hopes to change that.

Barie has written a book about Smith Weed, who he says was the single most important person in the history of Plattsburgh and the greater Champlain Valley. Weed was the Ò PresidentÓ of the village of Plattsburgh, before Plattsburgh became a city and the head administrator became known as mayor.

“He’s easily the most influential man in Clinton County,Ó said Barie.

Weed was originally from Belmont, New

York, but came to Plattsburgh with his family when he was six. He studied law at Yale University, then returned to Plattsburgh in 1860 to practice law. Soon after he was pressed into service to run for the Plattsburgh presidency.

But it was in the state assembly, where the democrat served six terms in a staunchly republican district, that Weed started to leave his mark. Ò He was the Father of the Canadian Connection,Ó said Barie. Ò Plattsburgh was connected to Montreal via rail, but it didnÕ t go anywhere from there. Weed brought the railway lines to Whitehall, which was connected with the rest of the eastern railway system.Ó DANNEMORA PRISON

While in the Assembly, Weed learned of plans to close Dannemora Prison. Being isolated from the rest of the state, prison labor was not bringing in enough money to be self-sufficient like downstate prisons. Weed again saw rail as the

answer, and he was instrumental in linking Dannemora via rail to Plattsburgh and beyond, saving the prison.

Always the entrepreneur, he also linked the village of Lyon Mountain, and the mining interests he held there, to the rest of the state. Ò He was a millionaire when a million dollars meant something,Ó said Barie.

Barie, a retired businessman from Rouses Point, originally set out to write a book about the 10 most influential people in Clinton CountyÕ s history. When he came upon Weed in the course of his research, he chose to drop the other nine people and focus just on Weed.

The President of Plattsburgh is BarrieÕ s third book. His other, self-published books are A Miricle Comes to Vermont, and Crossing the Line.

Barie’s new book is the first biography ever written on Smith Weed. Ò IÕ ve always been involved in business and politics,Ó said Barie. Ò Those who canÕ t do, write. My books are a way to stay involved in business and politics.Ó When he started to research Weed, he found literally thousands of articles on him, so many that it took well over a year to research and put the pieces together. Ò ItÕ s like a big puzzle,Ó he said.Ó My book has over 300 footnotes.”

The President of Plattsburgh is available locally at Lake City Books and the Cornerstone Bookstore in Plattsburgh, and also at amazon.

Champlain man dies in Little Chazy River truck accident CHAZY Ñ On October 6, at approximately 5 p.m., Chazy-based State Police responded to a report of a one-vehicle roll-over in the Little Chazy River located off the North Farm Road in the town of Chazy.

A 1997 International Harvester manure spreader operated by 36-year-old Philip R. Fortsch III of Champlain, NY was southbound on the Rovers Farm driveway, when the vehicle ran off the edge of driveway causing the tractor to overturn and roll down an embank-

com.

Barie has already started his next book, which will be a history of the Ò Champlain Boat People,Ó or families who traded on the lake in Canal Scooners.

“Reaserch has been really, really difficult. Literally hundreds of people were employed making canal boats here.Ó Barie has no time frame for when his next book will be out.

ment into the Little Chazy River. The truck came to rest upside down in approximately four feet of water with the cab submerged.

Chazy Rescue members extricated Fortsch from the vehicle after approximately 20 minutes according to police. Forsch was then transported to Champlain Valley Physicians Hospital in Plattsburgh where he was pronounced deceased at 5:58 p.m.

The cause of the accident is still under investigation.

Agencies that assisted at the scene include Chazy Fire and EMS and Environmental Conservation Police.

CVPH

From page 1 lower the fear level of North Country residents. Ò CVPH has a surge plan of a variety of avenues; we have to look at if it is a flu, if Ebola were to come in, we’re looking at Enterovirus D-68. We always have to be prepared for the changing world and what organisms are coming in,Ó said Erica Wood, Infection Prevention Manager at CVPH. Ò We work with each department within the hospital, and we also work with the Public Health Department to make plans for a patient that would be coming in.Ó While they have not needed to be directly in contact with the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), Wood says that CVPH is constantly receiving updates from that agency and follows their guidelines. Should an infectious disease such as Ebola or D-68 surface in our area, they would then reach out to CDC for more specific guidance, according to their surge plan.

Locally, CVPH has been in touch daily with the Clinton County Health Department in order to coordinate any potential response to an infectious disease. Ò ItÕ s a small world. The chance of it coming to any one county

is rare, but we have systems in place not just for Ebola, but for any communicable disease,Ó said Darwyna Facteau, Supervising Public Health Nurse at the Clinton County Health Department. Ò ItÕ s about screening individuals; knowing the symptoms, knowing what to ask.Ó Facteau says that though the possibility of Ebola coming to the Champlain Valley would be slight, she does expect to eventually see Enterovirus D-68 here. She says that precautions for D-68, as well as the response, is similar to the flu. Most cases are very mild, and people should stay home if they are ill, wash hands often, and practice proper respiratory etiquette such as covering sneezes.

“This (Enterovirus) has been around since the 1960s,” said Joanne Swiesz, Director of Patient services at the Clinton County Health Department. “At this point we have had no confirmed cases in Clinton County.Ó For their part, ambulance crews at CVPH have begun to take added precautions. Mike Lagree, Operations Manager for the Emergency Medical Technicians at CVPH, says that his crews already stress universal precautions on all calls, but are using additional precautions on some calls. Ò For some calls itÕ s very common for us to throw on a mask and put a mask on the patient,Ó he said. Ò We donÕ t want to cause

hysteria. ThereÕ s no mandate, but itÕ s a recommendation.Ó Each ambulance now additionally carries two Ò Ebola kits,Ó containing gowns, masks, eye shields, shoe covers and head covers for EMTs to use on some calls.

According to Mike Cahoon, Director of Emergency management at CVPH, the hospital is physically prepared as well, with quarantine facilities and protocols already in place to deal with any such communicable disease outbreak.

The hospital is able to lock down the entire facility and wash down emergency responders and patients before they enter the facility in a special area adjacent to the Emergency Care Center.

They even contain the waste water produced, so it doesnÕ t go back into the municipal water system.

Across the board, however, officials stress that Ebola in particular is very hard to contract. Ò ...You have to have come into contact with someone who has the virus, or come into contact with the bodily fluids; so nausea, diarrhea, blood, those are the concerns. ItÕ s not a common exposure like you see with the flu or the common cold or some other respiratory ailments. I understand people being concerned, but you are much more likely to have exposure to other illnesses throughout this season than you are to Ebola,Ó said Wood.

County encourages vaccine for flu season

By Shawn Ryan

shawn@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ With much attention on diseases making national news, local health officials stress that flu season is nearing and urge people to take precautions against the disease.

Officials at the Clinton County Health Department are stressing the need for people to get flu vaccinations as well as to take certain universal precautions in their day to day lives. Ò If you get vaccinated, you are just much less likely to get the flu than if you donÕ t get vaccinated,Ó said Darwyna Facteau, Supervising Public Health Nurse at the Clinton County Health Department.

Facteau says that each year the Centers for Disease Control track the progression of the flu from South America north to this country, and try to produce a flu vaccine based on whichever strain or strains are coming north. Ò We know that the vaccines (available this year) are closely related to the circulating viruses at this time,Ó she said.

She urges specific at-risk populations, such as the elderly, young children, pregnant women and people with compromised immune systems to get the vaccine.

Though she says that last year’s flu season was fairly typical, the Health Department did see a higher than average incidence in the younger population of 20 to 50 year old people. Ò ItÕ s because they are un-immunized,Ó she explained. Ò Those working people tend not to get out and get immunized. Vaccination is the number one way to prevent diseases.Ó Joanne Swiesz, Director of Patient Services at the Clinton County Health Department, stresses that the more people who get vaccinations, the better it will be for the overall population.

Through a concept called Ò herd immunity,Ó the more people who are vaccinated, the less of a chance

the virus has to make in-roads into the population.

INSURANCE Facteau points out that most health insurances cover the cost of flu shots.

Vaccinations for seniors are covered through Medicare.

There have been no confirmed cases in Clinton County yet. Officials say that the flu normally starts to show up around holiday time in this region.

Facteau also stresses the same universal precautions for the flu as for other communicable diseases.

Ò Wash your hands, wash your hands, wash your hands,Ó said Facteau.

She also stresses staying home if you are sick, seeing your doctor at the onset of flu-like symptoms, and proper respiratory etiquette such as covering coughs.

The Health Department will he hosting flu clinics for seniors throughout the lead up to the flu season. For more information on Clinton CountyÕ s immunization program, consult www. clintonhealth.org/immunizations. html.

Peru shuts out Plattsburgh on road to remain undefeated Big plays help Indians to 41-0 win

By Barrie Finnegan

denpubs@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ When Pat Keleher left the Carrier Dome in 2001 as a Peru coach with a New York State championship under his belt, he never thought that one day he would be the head coach of an upstart Plattsburgh program hosting those same Indians.

He had his Hornets ready to play and kept the Peru offense off balance for much of the Oct. 3 game.

Eventually, big plays caught up with the Hornets, leading to a 41-0 Peru win to keep the Indians undefeated at 5-0.

Peru had to overcome two fumbles and a pooch kick which hit the up-man in the back before they could get on track.

Quarterback Blake Altizer hit Anthony Gallo on touchdown passes of 54 and 15 yards to start the scoring.

At the end of the first quarter Peru held on to a 14-0 lead.

The second saw the Hornets mounting their own drives only to be denied on key plays in the red zone.

DÕ Andre Lemieux hit Jack Goldsmith on a big gainer and hard running by Logan Harvey put the Hornets on the Peru 8-yard line, but

the Indian defense stiffened and kept the Hornets out of the end zone.

In the closing two minutes of the half, sacks

by Tristan Turner and Josh Rock-Vanier had backed the Indians up but Altizer hit Troy

Lawyer on a 40-yard pass to give Peru hope of punching in one more score before the end of the half.

Altizer hit Lawyer again and Gallo on passes to get the ball to the HornetsÕ half-yard line.

Altizer ran it in from there as time expired.

The extra point by Carpenter was good, making it a 21-0 Peru halftime lead.

The Hornet defense played a hard-nosed first half, holding Peru to just 54 yards rushing on 13 carries but gave up 154 yards through the air to Altizer and his receiving corps.

In the third quarter Brandon Sawyer got rolling with some hard runs, breaking tackles for consistent gains.

This once again opened up the passing game for big plays, as Altizer hit Troy Lawyer for a 30-yard touchdown and Anthony Gallo for a 46-yard scoring strike. After two missed extra points the lead was 33-0 for Peru.

Riley Sartwell and Jonathon Jardine were providing holes for Brandon Sawyer on his way to 104 yards rushing for the night. SawyerÕ s 9-yard touchdown run followed by a two-point conversion on a fake extra point attempt concluded the scoring for the night.

Peru would come away with a 41-0 shutout victory. Sawyer said after the game that they encountered a defensive scheme that took them a while to adjust to.

Although the score didnÕ t indicate too much for the Hornets, Keleher saw some positives to build on for the rest of the season.

On the Peru side, Coach Nick Damiani said they need to work on mistakes in execution but was happy to overcome those mistakes for a convincing victory.

Saranac defense, running game down Patriots for first win Chiefs pick up the 43-7 road win for first victory of the season

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com CLINTONVILLE Ñ It was a repeat of the Monday night professional football game as the Chiefs defeated the Patriots handily.

This time, it was the Chiefs of Saranac scoring a 43-7 win over the AuSable Valley Patriots Oct. 3.

There were ups and downs early for the Chiefs as a Caiden Goodman 80-plus yard kick return to open the game was called back, followed by a 13 play drive that ended 10 yards outside of the endzone.

That was when SaranacÕ s Dillon Clay took over.

On the second offensive play for the Patriots, Clay got into the backfield for an 8-yard loss.

Two plays later, Clay struck again, blocking the Chasm Perkett punt and falling on it for a touchdown.

In all, Clay finished with a stat in almost every defensive category: blocked punt, touchdown recovery, three tackles for loss, one sack, one forced fumble and an interception in the fourth quarter. He also caught four passes for 50 yards.

“It’s the best night I have had on the field,” Clay said. Ò I am just trying to help my team out. Mason (Utzler) was giving me perfect passes to catch.Ó Ò He had a great game,Ó Saranac Coach Jason Daniels said.

Clay said early on he was hoping to make a play to get a positive result on the field for the

at that point winless squad. Ò We saw Caiden go down and we were all excited until we saw the flag,” he said. “We had a great drive that stalled, and we didnÕ t want it to go down like that. We wanted to get it back for the offense. Last week against Beekmantown, I jumped offsides on the first punt of the game and the next play was a touchdown. This time I was able to get a good jump and get to the ball.Ó Clay was not the only Chief to star defensively, as Dayne Rendadette had five tackles for loss, including three sacks and a forced fumble. Mike LeBeau and Josh Santor each had a pair of tackles for loss, while Zach Daniels and Hunter Church each had one. Daniels added a fumble recovery along with one from Mason Martin. Rafael Rivera also added an interception Utzler, in his first game under center, finished 10-for-21 with 87 yards and a score. Along with Clay’s 50 yards receiving, Goodman added 18 yards and a score with Church and Rendadette grabbing eight yards each.

Martin led the attack on the ground, running 25 times for 118 yards and two scores. Church added nine carries for 91 yards and two scores, while Utzler had 11 yards rushing.

“Mason was fantastic for his first start at quarterback,Ó Daniels said. Ò His throws were fantastic and we had a lot of drops. We started with a kickoff return called back and we were concerned they would get flat but they didn’t.

This coaching staff is phenomenal and they had the team prepared.Ó Daniels said he hopes the team will use the momentum from this gamer to carry them into next weekÕ s matchup with Plattsburgh High. Ò We are going to prepare very hard for PHS,Ó he said.

Saranac’s Dillon Clay (17) blocks—and recovers—a Chasm Perkett punt for a defensive touchdown in the Chiefs’ 43-7 win on Oct. 3 in AuSable Valley. Clay had a standout performance, adding three tackles for a loss, one sack, a forced fumble and an interception.

Photo by Keith Lobdell

Ò We got the monkey off our back and we get to go into the PHS game with clear heads,Ó Clay said.

For AuSable Valley, William Coats finished 8-for-21 with 155 yards, one touchdown and two picks at quarterback. Sultan Sikandar had three catches for 76 yards and a touchdown, while Tyler Champine had four catches for 67 yards and Jacob Ashline added 12 yards.

Mark Whitney had 10 yards rushing for the Patriots, who had only two rushers with positive yardage (Ashline had five yards). Overall, the Saranac defense smothered the Patriots for -37 rush yards.

Nate Manning had a sack for the Patriots defense, while Thorne Bola added a tackle for loss.

Eagles come back from 14-point hole, top Sentinels in OT Beekmantown moves to third place at 4-1

By Barrie Finnegan

denpubs@denpubs.com BEEKMANTOWN Ñ The Beekmantown Eagles hosted the Ticonderoga Sentinels on a wet day which provided exciting opportunities for both teams. The Eagles would come away with a 20-14 victory which required overtime to decide the winner.

Ti would come out strong with a 72-yard drive mainly on the running of Konner Bruce and Ryan Trudeau. Quarterback Garrison Hughes would score on a one yard keeper, the extra point was good and Ti led 7-0.

Beekmantown would then fumble in their own end zone where Kaleb Wiktorko would jump on the loose ball for a touchdown for the Sentinals. The kick was good again making it 14-0 at the end of the first quarter.

With 4:22 left in the half, Domanic Banish intercepted an Eagle pass which appeared to give the Sentinels good field position. But an inadvertent whistle caused the play to be nullified and Beekmantown retained possession.

Both defenses were playing well and the half concluded with the Ti holding the 14-0 lead.

With the Sentinels keying on Justin Stevens, Beekmantown tried to use Stevens as a decoy on many of the first half plays. The second half would see that change as Stevens became the force that Eagle fans were accustomed to

watching.

Ti quarterback Garrison Hughes was also the kick returner as well as the punt return man. Hughes had a 70-yard kickoff return called back by an illegal block in the back penalty. He also had a huge punt return called back for the same penalty.

The Eagle offense got on track with runs by Stevens moving the ball to the Sentinal 5-yard line where QB Alex Archer scored on a 4-yard keeper. Archer paid the price for scoring, as Konner Bruce drilled him right at the goal line.

Once Archer could breath again, he walked off the field. The kick was blocked making the score 14-6 going into the fourth.

In the fourth quarter, the Sentinels drove the ball down to the Eagle 6-yard line after an interception by Marick Ross. The drive stalled there and Ti missed the field goal attempt.

The Eagles took over but failed to continue their drive and chose to punt with 5:42 left in the game. The Sentinel drive also stalled and the Eagles got the ball back with 3:18 left in the game.

After a 32-yard Stevens run down to the Sentinel 15, Archer took it to the 9-yard line on another keeper. On fourth-and-3 from the 6-yard line, Archer threw a touchdown pass to Matt Villa. The score was now 14-12 with the 2-point conversion yet to come. An incomplete pass fell to the ground at the same time as the flag for illegal contact. The Eagles had new life.

Justin Stevens was not to be denied from 1 1/2 yards out, tying the game at 14 with 1:33 left.

Beekmantown held Ti and forced a punt as

time was running out. With time for one last play in regulation, The Eagles ran the hook and ladder to Stevens who went sprinting down the sideline until Konner Bruce made yet another big tackle.

The Sentinels would get the ball first in overtime. They failed to move and ended up

missing a field goal attempt, wide right. The Eagles got their chance and wouldnÕ t waste it.

Justin Stevens ran the ball for 15 yards, dragging tacklers along the way. Stevens again got the call, this time running over would-be tacklers for the game winner. The final score in a very exciting matchup was 20-14 Eagles.

Saranac Lake sneaks past Moriah to stay atop Section VII Saranac Lake remains undefeated and tied atop Section VII

By Akashia Swinton

denpubs@denpubs.com SARANAC LAKE Ñ The Saranac Lake Red Storm continued their undefeated streak this week. Although they were the favorite going into SaturdayÕ s game, they squeaked by the Moriah Vikings for the win with a final score of 15 to 10.

The Red Storm gave up a safety in the final

minutes of the game to prevent the Vikings from scoring and putting the game into overtime.

Saranac Lake shut down the Moriah passing game with quarterback Adam Jaquish only throwing 4-for-12, but they were unable to stop the Vikings rushing duo of Collin Harris and Troy Welch.

Harris had 17 carries for 122 rushing yards, including a 58-yard carry for a touchdown that opened the second quarter. Welch had 20 carries for 88 yards rushing. Both players went down during SaturdayÕ s game with injuries, but persisted and finished out the game.

During the PAT attempt in the 2nd quarter, there was a botched snap, but Adam Jaquish was able to recover and throw to Cody Stockwell for a 2 point conversion.

Saranac LakeÕ s key rusher was Dylan Kilner, who had 18 carries for 62 yards. They had multiple other targets that recorded both rushing and receiving yards. Jack Martin had 12 rushing yards and 15 receiving yards, Jason Stack had 8 rushing yards and 32 receiving and Ty Marmion had 15 rushing yards and 6 receiving yards, including a 2 point conversion in the 4th quarter.

Red Storm quarterback Tristin Fitzgerald completed 17 of 32 passes and had 21 yards rushing, including a first quarter touchdown.

The other Red Storm touchdown was scored

by Alex Donaldson, who had 28 yards rushing and also recorded two tackles in SaturdayÕ s game.

Defensively for the Red Storm, Marmion had two interceptions and three tackles, Myckael Colon had five tackles and Drew Sturgeon had three.

Key defensive players for the Vikings include Kyle Stockwell with four tackles, while Noah Gilbo, Ryan Jaquish and Bill Larrow all had three tackles.

An end of the season romp

W

ell, I did it! I finally took a little trip way back into one of my favorite brook trout waters.

For several years, I had purposely avoided traveling back to the pond, even though it was known to produce very large specimens of wild brookies.

Over the years, it had always been my trusted, end of the season, trout refuge. It is a place with safe, reliable, trout waters and very few outside intruders.

It is a place where the angling opportunities can be extradorinary, and complete solitude is almost always assured since there are very few folks in their right mind who would hump

a boat that far back into the woods on the odd chance they could catch a brookie.

There was also a lingering worry that the fish may no longer be there or be so large and handsome. God forbid!

ItÕ s a worry that typically occurs when you unexpectedly come face to face with an old girlfriend.

ItÕ s awkward, sweetly sentimental, and youÕ re typically left with a what if?

But since I have a long term affinity for all things finned and speckled, it was a case of simple predestination. I simply had to return to a special place, The Altar, where large, brook trout go to find their maker.

There was no argument or wavering, as there were trout waiting and I simply had to go.

After a short conservation, which was greatly enhanced by a bit of coercion, I was able to enlist the comfortable company of an old friend who had far more important duties awaiting.

I managed to get him on board with promises of large brook trout, and we set off in the early morning darkness to find the fabled waters.

The day dawned cool and sunny, and we made short work of several crucial carries as we hustled to get to the pond.

Finally, after gently placing the boat onto the aquamarine waters of the little pond, we set off in hot pursuit, and wasted no time.

But as we came around the last point of land, Pictured are two end of the season brook trout caught on a backcountry pond by Joe at the entrance to the secluded cove that harbors Hackett and a fishing partner. The smaller trout was 16 inches long, the larger was 23 The Altar, we discovered another angler was al1/2-inches. ready there, fishing.

Photo by Joe Hackett

Kelley took first in the 100-yard butterfly, 100-yard breaststroke and 200-yard IM. Plattsburgh’s Kelly Davey won the 100-yard freestyle and 100-yard backstroke to finish second in points and complete the HornetsÕ sweep of every event.

Lydia Brown was third in points for AuSable Valley, including a second-place finish in the 100-yard butterfly, and Emily McCormick finished sixth in points for the Patriots.

Peru’s Cydney Bond took fourth overall with fouth-place finishes in the 200-yard IM and 100-yard breaststroke.

Christina Lashway paced the Vikings with a 12th-place finish as Moriah finished fourth.

We purposely stayed off at a distance and placed our halfhearted casts towards the near shoreline, while keeping a close eye on our unexpected competition.

Fortunately, the fishing was slow, the sun was bright and the lone angler finally departed.

Shortly afterward, we moved to The Altar and the first brookie was taken. We netted one, and then another.

It appeared as if old times were not for naught, as trout were again on the take and I was laughing like an imbecile.

Unfortunately, the action didnÕ t last long, and with just two, average specimens on the stringer, our long walk home was growing longer by the minute.

Although I can be as stubborn as an old nag in a stable, I can occasionally be convinced to move to more productive waters with the proper prodding and a host of assorted threats.

Such was the case, when my friend admonished me to move to a different location, Ò Or else!Ó With just two slots taken on a stringer that holds 10, our fishing expedition was threatening to go the way of the loon, due south.

However, after dropping any further pretense of taking another fish at The Altar, I finally agreed to set off to another pond.

However, as we approached a small bay sheltering the Ô carryÕ over to the next pond, my friend tossed a line into a large jumble of logs, bogs and other assorted floating debris.

Instantly, the calm bay exploded in a fury of slashing, splashing, reel-zinging, line-running fury. Following the stiff and rather swift battle, we finally added another brilliant brookie to our stringer.

Although the day was growing late and the return carry out loomed much longer than before, we decided to stick it out and IÕ m glad we did.

The first few casts offered a signal of the piscatorial pandaemonium that was to follow.

Over the next 20 minutes, we managed to land over two dozen fish, the largest of which pushed 4 pounds or more.

Although my angling partner boated far more fish than I managed, the experience offered a fitting end to a long day which proved patience and persistence can often provide large rewards.

The long trek home was surprisingly quick and easy, as it always seems to be when youÕ re packing out a large batch of fresh brookies.

The local waters are cooling rapidly, and leaves are falling quickly. Soon, visions of the big bucks and flocks of ducks will begin to fill the sportman’s dreams.

Until then, there is still plenty of time to get out and find your own special pond, before trout season comes to an end on Oct. 15.

he style & substance Fall Wellness Series focused on the second agreement in Don Miguel RuizÕ s book, Ò The Four AgreementsÓ : Do not take anything per-

sonally.

Our discussions began with a review of the first agreement, Ò Be impeccable with your wordÓ , because if mindfully followed, it is much easier to avoid taking things personally. As a wise woman once stated, Ò No one can make you feel inferior without your permission.Ó Eleanor Roosevelt DonÕ t Take Anything Personally, according to the author, Don Miguel Ruiz is described easily with these three points: •Nothing others do is because of you.

•What others say and do is a projection of their own dream.

•When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you wonÕ t be the victim of needless suffering. Ò DonÕ t take this personallyÓ , Ò No offenseÓ , and Ò I didnÕ t mean anything by thatÓ are all comments tossed easily around by people Ò meaning no harmÓ . Have you ever been on the receiving end of this commentary or careless remark?

Are you the person who has spoken these words? Either way, take a moment to gauge your ease of having or creating, possibly unintentionally, these hurt feelings.

We invite you to reflect on the possibility of living without taking anything personally. Ask yourself how you may feel in these following scenarios? In reading and responding, answer these questions: what is your immediate Ò MEÓ reaction (we call this me-action!) and what could THEY possibly be thinking?

•People on the committee you lead are not showing up when they previously agreed that the time/place worked well in their schedules •You are not invited to a gathering with people that you consider your friends

The Saranac Freedom club has been active in veteransÕ issues since its inception in 2002. Beaulieu started the club for seniors as a service project to support veterans and raise awareness of their issues. Ò IÕ ve always been very passionate about veteransÕ issues.Ó Freedom club has been active in the community since its inception. Members construct at least one handicapped access ramp per year for veterans, participate in numerous food drives, write to active duty service members and have donated money to the 9/11 Memorial in New York City and the Pentagon Memorial in Washington D.C. Each year they go on a six day trip to various historic sites in New York City, Washington D.C. and the Gettysburg battlefield.

This will be the first year that the Freedom Club will be Ò ruckingÓ for this cause. Beaulieu says that Plattsburgh Mayor James Calnon offered the old base oval for use for their modified double-times march and participants will circle the Oval for their four-mile trek.

•Someone at work never says good morning to you •If someone forgets to call you or someone in your social group doesnÕ t respond to a text or group of textsÉ •Someone is distant and not paying attention to you The question emerges, why do people give feedback that we take Ô personallyÕ ?

People’s behaviors and words are a reflection of them only, they have a unique identity. Their words are not entirely accurate; when someone says something about us (or anything else), theyÕ re really saying something about themselves and how they view the world.

We all have our biases, ‘filters’ through which we view the world, so there is no such thing as true objectivity How do we change that? An easy checklist to try, amend and put into regular use: •Calm the chaos or running commentary in your mind •Ask “Why does this affect me so much?”

•Choose to evaluate rather than feel offended •Take what is truth and leave behind that which is not relevant to you •Know your own ‘wounds’ and understand your reactions when these wounds are poked or touched by negative things

The Burgh - 9 others say or do •Guard how YOU judge or give opinions •Choose to give feedback that is encouraging, not discouraging •Be the director of your own story and let others direct theirs •Realize that some humans can be addicted to your or their own suffering. Their habit is to feed it and stay miserable •Let go of people that regularly make you feel badly We have found that using the four agreements to resolve conflict and by doing so just makes sense. Ideally we come away without regrets, having resolved the situation instead of escalating it. Here is why: •Resolution comes more quickly because you ask for clarification instead of jumping to conclusions.

•You reduce time lost to stress because you don’t feel personally responsible for the other personÕ s anxiety or anger.

•Initial conflict often turns into a productive conversation and leads to a deeper relationship, because you come from a more compassionate place.

The Four Agreements can help us to build better communication and problem solving skills and seek creative and practical solutions to lead the lives we want with joy and meaning.

Cuomo needs to step to the plate and debate

G

ov. Andrew Cuomo has done a lot for the North Country to boost our sagging economic fortunes, like promoting tourism, hammering out a moderate agreement on the Essex Chain Lakes, pouring cash into infrastructure development and rolling back restrictions on craft breweries, a measure that further uncorks the bottled-up entrepreneurial spirit of our fellow New Yorkers.

But heÕ s done a lot of unpalatable stuff, too, mostly when it comes to the SAFE Act and the property tax freeze, a shell game that has left rural governments in the lurch.

HeÕ s up for re-election on Nov. 4. But you were probably only vaguely aware of that because heÕ s coasted through election season without debating his opponents, the most visible platform to discuss the issues.

First he pacified the Working Families Party by whispering sweet nothings at them, promising to bring the state Senate back under Democratic control. After they rolled over, Zephyr Teachout emerged from the ashes.

She was ignored until the last days of the Democratic primary campaign, when Cuomo begrudgingly rallied his troops and made a few campaign stumps, including at the Labor Day Parade in New York, where he ignored Teachout when she tried to shake his hand.

Despite skipping the North County on her barnstorm tour across the state, Teachout won every county in the North Country except for Franklin, taking 30 percent of the Democratic vote while spending one-fortieth as much for the votes as Cuomo did.

And then thereÕ s Rob Astorino, his Republican challenger, the Westchester County Executive who formed an unlikely alliance with Teachout during the primary by debating the issues.

He, too, is being snubbed by Cuomo.

When asked last month about debates, Cuomo said they can be a Ò disservice to democracy.Ó We think that line of thinking is a disservice to democracy.

Astorino is a likeable guy with some bright ideas, like loosening the stateÕ s crippling regulatory efforts, reforming New YorkÕ s bloated Medicaid and pension system and increasing funding for vocational programs in high schools to shore up rural economies.

Too bad the public wonÕ t get a chance to hear him out.

After ignoring AstorinoÕ s call for eight debates across the state Ñ the issues facing each

region are myriad, he argued, and each needs an in-depth discussion to address their needs Ñ Cuomo finally capitulated.

Last week, the Cuomo campaign agreed to one televised debate in Buffalo with Astorino, Howie Hawkins, the Green Party candidate, and Libertarian candidate Michael McDermott.

But Cuomo will not debate Astorino one-onone in a televised debate, only radio. Cuomo has refused all offers to engage Astorino using the most accessible medium for voters.

This is problematic for a number of reasons, namely because the compressed formats will lend themselves to little aside from cheap shots, platitudes and talking points.

In other words, nothing that will significantly jeopardize the air of invincibility surrounding King CuomoÕ s second coronation.

We understand that from a strategic level, Cuomo is just being shrewd. With a commanding 25 point lead, a gap that shrinks to nine percent in the North Country, Cuomo has little to gain from putting himself out there, especially considering heÕ s under federal investigation for his role in disbanding the anti-corruption Moreland Commission.

But voters Ñ and we canÕ t believe this actually needs to be said Ñ have the right to expect to hear from the candidates and learn more about the issues so that they can make the most welleducated decision when they go to the polls.

In fact, according to a recent Marist poll, while half of registered voters have already decided on their pick, 45 percent think a debate would help them make up their minds, while 78 percent think all of the candidates on the ballot should be included in the debates, not just Cuomo and Astorino.

Having just one televised debate in a state where the stakes are so high isnÕ t enough.

If Cuomo can find time to go to Israel and Afghanistan on the taxpayerÕ s dime to promote democratic ideals, then he can certainly do the same right here in his backyard.

Since heÕ s running on his accomplishments Ñ balancing the stateÕ s unruly budget that has kept spending increases down and a series of economic proposals that have revitalized small industries Ñ he should have no trouble making the case for another four years.

Eight debates is too many, but voters in the North Country, those who perhaps are crippled the most by some of his most controversial policies, deserve better. ÑD

Do you believe Essex County acted properly in awarding Frontier Town to North Hudson?

I think George Moore got screwed on a fair bid. It seems to me they went through this big expensive process and then changed their mind when it didnÕ t suit them.

Letters to the Editor

Thanks for golf tourney support

Grateful for support

Need for United Way never greater

To the Editor: I would like to thank all the teams who played in the 1st Annual Barbara Armstrong Memorial Scholarship Golf Tournament. A special thanks to the Moriah Country Club, Tom Edwards, Brian Stoddard, Dale Johnson, Frank Gilbo, Chip Perry and Aaron Tur. I would also like to thank our hole sponsors: Manfred Construction, BryantÕ s Lumber, Paul Salerno Plumbing & Heating, J P Carrara and Sons, Grover Hills Deli, BezonÕ s Bait & Tackle, CelottiÕ s Wine & Spirits, Julie Garcia, Charles Noth, and BoyeaÕ s Grocery & Deli. Thank you to Cobble Hill Golf Course, Ticonderoga Country Club and J & J Sealcoating for your donations.

We had a great turnout and look forward to seeing you all next year! Thanks again!

Rose French On behalf of the Barbara Armstrong Memorial Scholarship Fund

To the Editor: As the Child Care program for Essex County, we are fortunate to work closely with Essex County Department of Social Services (DSS) and are grateful for the support they provide. ACAP Child Care struggles every year with having enough funding. DSS has managed to find funding to help fill that gap more than once. It is with their support that we are able to continue to work toward increasing quality childcare in our county.

Working with them on everything from educating families about quality childcare and subsidy programs, to helping potential childcare providers become registered, DSS staff are dedicated, knowledgeable professionals that are committed to providing quality services.

We at ACAP would like to thank them for their continued support and for all they do to improve the quality of life for so many.

How has it come to this?

Supports Affordable Care Act

To the Editor: A glance at America today begs the question, Ò How have we come to this?Ó We have a President of the United States who is not honest with the American people regarding many issues, including Obamacare. He consistently ignores lawful procedure and is not relevant on the world stage.

The risk from Islamic terrorism is increasing, not decreasing.

WhatÕ s decreasing is the ability to protect yourself.

The Mexican border is not a border at all.

The IRS, Benghazi, and other major scandals remain unresolved.

Neither Obama, nor Hillary Clinton, nor Congressional Democrats, want the Benghazi story told, yet an ambassador and brave men died there.

We have Attorney General Eric Holder, a presidential appointee, who has selectively applied the law, depending on whether or not it fit his social justice agenda.

Another presidential appointee, John Brennan, Chairman of the CIA, lies to and spies on Congress.

Political correctness trumps all. No one dares speak out for fear of immediately being labeled racist, sexist, or homophobe.

Everything must be accepted, except Christianity and Judaism.

We have a Congress and President who ignore our extraordinary debt problem.

Our national debt is $17.5 trillion dollars and grows every day.

17.5 trillion is equivalent to spending $48 million dollars every single day for a thousand years.

Only half the people pay any taxes, yet more and more demand tax funded social assistance, a growing number not even Americans or here legally.

More than 12 percent of prime age men are not participating in our labor force. The percent for women is 30 percent. Government handout programs have created a disincentive to work.

The available handouts in Washington D.C. are equivalent to making $53,000 a year.

The current economic malaise was initiated by Congress in the 1990s, not banks.

Many of the major news outlets either slant these issues or donÕ t cover them at all.

How have we come to this?

Perhaps it’s Progressive Liberalism, which has infiltrated the Democrat party.

Five-hundred years ago, Machiavelli wrote, Ò Nothing wastes so rapidly as liberality, for even whilst you exercise it you lose the power to do so, and so become either poor or despised.Ó True then, true now, for as our welfare state increases, our ability to provide for it decreases.

Fortunately our local weekly newspapers have the courage to print opinions like this.

ItÔ s time to become involved.

To the Editor: I have two relatives whose medical conditions would make them totally uninsurable without the Affordable Care Act (aka, Obamacare). Yet some politicians still advocate repeal. Why?!

Your page 18 article last week about Aaron Woolf and Elise Stefanik didnÕ t mention her current position on health care, but past articles in the Valley News cited that she favors repeal.

Her publicity says that she stands for new ideas and new leadership, but there is nothing new or leader-like in that position. If she and her potential colleagues in Congress succeed, they must know they would be condemning a lot of people like my two relatives to death, because thatÕ s what would happen without the health care that nearly eight million Americans now have thanks to the ACA, which makes it illegal to deny insurance and care to folks with pre-existing conditions, etc.

Allen Fitz-Gerald, Jay

To the Editor: The need for the services that United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc. helps support has never been greater.

Employment, construction and tourism are down yet gas, food and utility costs are rising. Demands on public agencies, food pantries, utility funds and free clinics are much higher than last year and from people who have never requested assistance before.

State funding to public and private agencies has been slashed at the same time that requests for assistance are increasing.

United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc. helps fill that gap.

The United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc. has been a part of this community for over 60 years.

Our main role is providing financial support to local health and human service programs to 41 partner agencies.

We do not just provide a blank check to these agencies; we fund specific programs with measurable outcome objectives ensuring the funds invested on your behalf are making the greatest impact on community needs.

I realize that many are facing financial pressures in their own families. But, I hope people would give as generously as they can. IÕ m sure they know someone who has been helped by one of the United Way partner agencies, a neighbor, co-worker, student, and quite likely their own family.

The United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc. needs your help this year. If you work for one of the 170 businesses that allow you to donate through payroll deduction, that is the easiest way.

If your employer doesnÕ t offer a workplace campaign, please ask if they will start one. If youÕ ve received a letter from the United Way please reply. Even a small amount can make a big difference in the lives of others in need in our community. Please support our local United Way. Kathy Snow Director of Development United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc.

Marge Zmijewski, ACAP Child Care

ACAP thanks To the Editor: Everyone has heard the adage that it takes a village to raise a child. In the case of ACAP Child Care, this is especially true.

With the pending loss of After School in three local schools and minimal funding for Child Care Resource and Referral, they were looking at the possibility of having to close the program.

Putting together information on the need and impact quality childcare has on families, businesses, and our community, the program went to the state legislature, our community and Essex County looking for support.

The good news is that everyone ACAP asked understood the need and stepped up to help continue these vital programs.

Senator Betty Little and her staff worked with the GovernorÕ s office to secure funding for the After School Program, assuring that over 120 children will have a safe, nurturing place to go after school.

Essex County Department of Social Services, Adirondack Trust and Cloudsplitter Foundation will also be providing funding.

Having worked closely with DSS to increase quality childcare they were aware of the need and were able to find funding to support ACAP Child Care Resource and Referral.

The agency also worked with Adirondack Trust and submitted a proposal to Cloudsplitter Foundation to help with recruitment and training to increase childcare slots. The foundation supports the efforts of organization to make lives better for the resident of the Adirondacks. Ò It was wonderful to see how everyone came together to support the need for quality childcare in Essex County,Ó said Marge Zmijewski, Program Director. Ò We all know the impact quality childcare can have on children, the parents and our community and we are grateful that so many have showed their faith in us and our programs.Ó Marge Garcia, ACAP

Proposition important To the Editor: I want to inform Willsboro voters of an important local proposition on the November ballot. It is the question of continuing to have two Town Justices. Voters donÕ t always realize that propositions, state or local, are located on the back of their paper ballot.

You must vote both sides of your ballot before returning it to the machine.

You will see a sample ballot of both sides of your ballot posted at your polling site. Look it over. The local proposition will be below the state propositions. The wording of the proposition has not been released yet, so read the proposition carefully and know the facts before you vote it.

Once you bring the ballot to the machine, and it has accepted it, you cannot return to revote if you forgot to vote both sides of your ballot. By election law, the election workers cannot remind you to vote both sides of the ballot.

There also will be a choice between two Town Justice candidates to vote for on the front of your ballot. If the proposition vote outcome is to keep two Town Justices, one of the candidates on the front with the most votes will become your second Town Justice on Jan. 1, 2015. If the voters decide to go to one Town Justice, one candidate may win, but there will be no position for him to serve.

Please exercise your right to vote on this issue. This question of one or two Town Justices impacts everyone, but ultimately it is not about the outcome of how you vote, it is about your right to participate in democracy at the local level. It is your decision as to how you vote, but the right to vote is a privilege so please donÕ t forget to exercise it.

Barbara Paye, Willsboro
