CHAMPLAIN — Northeastern Clinton Central School is celebrating its Outdoor Education Program’s 50th anniversary.

Every year, a new batch of sixth graders venture off to Camp Overlook in Owls Head to learn about outdoor education and character development.

“The textbooks are left at the school,” said Superintendent Robb Garrand, who’s also the director of the program.

“There’s no other program like ours.”

From taxidermy to owl pellet dissection, the students im-

merse themselves in outdoor learning sessions presented by organizations such as Trout Unlimited and Lake Champlain Basin Program.

The sixth graders also learn about managing stress, making healthy choices and teamwork through cooperative games and skits.

Senior Ryan Babbie remembers working in a team to come up with a little jingle.

“We came up with this moose chant,” he said. “It was great.”

Storytelling and singing is another big event at camp, said Lori Southwick, assistant director of the program.

Senior Julia Herzog remembered having to sing not for a skit, but for her food.

LAKE PLACID — A state task force is poised to deliver a series of legislative proposals to combat the state’s heroin epidemic as early as Wednesday.

“We have been looking at about 25 to 30 recommendations that are going to be very comprehensive that identify specific areas,” said Lieutenant Governor Kathy Hochul last week.

For the past two weeks, Hochul has been leading a series of task forces around the state. The eight-person team, consisting of the state’s top law enforcement, healthcare and drug treatment brass, stopped in Lake Placid last week, the sixth of eight planned sessions.

Their recommendations, Hochul said, are likely to follow the four-pronged approach cited by other state and federal authorities as being necessary to stomp out the epidemic: prevention, treatment, recovery, law enforcement — perhaps >> See Herion Proposals | pg. 5

Veteran shares story of time serving the USAF Romanian immigrant recalls lifetime of service

Bernhard “Bernie” Jakobetz of Peru served this country between 1953 to 1973. Pictured left: Jakobetz was stationed at Old Smokey Hill in Korea from 1954 to 1955.

The Peru resident enjoyed reminiscing his glory days when he hopped a plane the morning of May 14 to Washington, D.C. as part of the North Country Honor Flight.

It was his first time seeing the Korean War Memorial.

“It was very exciting,” he said. “But it wasn’t enough time.”

Jakobetz was joined by a number of honorees, including George Barber of Plattsburgh, Robert Byno of Saranac Lake, Ron LaDuke of Peru, Donald Campagna of Morrisonville, Norman Dumas of Malone, David Dutcher of Chazy, Robert Joyce of Plattsburgh, Michael Tetrault of Plattsburgh and several residents from Vermont.

The last time Jakobetz visited the nation’s capital was 40 years ago when he took his children to see the World War II Memorial.

He hopes to be able to visit the memorials again.

Jackobetz said although he didn’t lose any colleagues during the war, it’s still important to remember the ones lost and honor Memorial Day. Jakobetz and his wife, Dawn, spent the holiday with their four children and five grandchildren in Vermont.

Jakobetz believes every man should serve the country for at least two years, like the system in South Korea.

“They should see how good we have it over here,” he said.

“Also, they should serve to pay more respect to our country and flag.”

tunately, they won’t take old folks like me.”

Jakobetz became a member of the United States Air Force in 1953.

He received basic training at the Sampson Air Force Base in Rochester and a military police school in Georgia.

Shortly after, Jakobetz was shipped to the 606th Aircraft Contrail and Warning Squadron in Korea.

As the Korean War ended, so did Jakobetz’s title as a displaced person.

He was granted U.S. citizenship in Texas in 1955.

With this, Jakobetz felt more than obligated to continue serving the United States, now his country.

During the Vietnam War, Jakobetz was stationed in Thailand.

From 1966 to 1967, the soldier spent a majority of his time guarding the Nakhon Phanon Air Force Base in Thailand — a site kept a secret by the government at the time due to the air operations conducted out of Thailand to Vietnam.

That same year, Jakobetz became a member of the Air Police Squadron and was assigned to the Plattsburgh Air Force Base where he guarded nuclear weapons.

There, he met his wife, known as Dawn Miller at the time, and married her in 1969.

The couple traveled together during Jakobetz’s final years as a member of the United States Air Force.

Their favorite trip, Jakobetz said, was in 1971 when he was assigned to Upper Heyford Air Force Base in England.

Jakobetz retired from the United States Air Force in 1973.

PERU — Bernhard “Bernie” Jakobetz stood in front of the Korean War Memorial earlier this month and reminisced about his glory days as a member of the United States Air Force.

The Korean and Vietnam War vet served this country between 1953 and 1973 — a portion of that time not as a U.S. citizen, but as an immigrant from Czerowitz, Romania.

As war shrouded the continent, Jakobetz’s family moved to Vienna, Austria from Romania to escape the growing influence of Nazism. But the family couldn’t escape as the Germans assumed control, leaving residents to navigate bombs and hunger.

So, after the war, Jakobetz, along with his father, mother and sister, took the first opportunity they could to move to United States.

That chance was granted after his father, Joseph Massim, received a job offer he couldn’t refuse as a mechanic in the U.S. Occupation Force motor pool.

Jakobetz, who was born in 1932, said because of his father’s hard work, his boss from Rochester offered to sponsor his family’s immigration to the U.S. if he worked with him for at least a year.

He accepted.

Jakobetz and his family ventured six days by boat to the United States as participants in the Post World War II Displaced Persons program.

The program, which started in 1948, allowed 205,000 displaced persons (people who were unable or unwilling to return to their native countries after World War II) and 17,000 orphans entry into the country.

The 18-year-old immigrant fell in love with the country and wanted to officially become a part of it.

Jakobetz said his sponsor suggested joining the service to become a United States citizen.

He said initially, he had no interest in serving.

Now, he doesn’t regret his decision at all.

“I would serve all over again if I could,” he said. “But unfor-

House passes Stefanik’s military caregivers bill Legislation aims to offer relief for delayed caregiver applications, muddied appeals process

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Legislation authored by Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-Willsboro) seeks to reform and streamline the federal program designed to help family members caring for wounded military personnel.

Stefanik’s Support Our Military Caregivers Act passed the House by voice vote last week.

If signed into law, the legislation will address the backlog in the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs’ Family Caregiver Program, mandated by Congress in 2010 to provide seriouslywounded veterans with medical staff and stipends to assist caregivers, often family members.

Delays have marred the program.

The VA initially thought 4,000 caregivers would be approved for the program. The number is now 20,000, with another 14,800 applications still awaiting processing.

The deluge has overwhelmed staff. The inability to process the flood of applications is one problem; another is the expanding backlog of appeals filed by frustrated caregivers.

“Application deadlines are not being met by their own internal standards and the staff is still shorthanded,” Stefanik testified. “VA medical centers lack sufficient caregiver support coordinators and the necessary clinical staff to carry out medical assessments for eligibility.”

“These issues are not only unacceptable, but I believe they are preventable.”

Stefanik’s bill, which was introduced in November, would use pre-existing funds already appropriated for the current review and appeals process to allow for an “objective, independent party to conduct external, clinical reviews.”

Measures for transparency are also included, said Stefanik, because veterans are often left out of the process.

Stefanik hopes the Senate will craft a counterpart.

The idea came from a from a conversation with a caregiver in Alexandria Bay who cited the hurdles faced while trying to care for a wounded family member.

“Military caregivers are silent heroes in our communities and deserve the respect and benefits proportionate to their significant contributions,” Stefanik testified.

New York’s 21st Congressional District has the highest veteran population of any congressional district in the state.

According to the website the Hill, “the bill provides a 5.6 percent increase for the VA over 2015 levels, but falls more than $1 billion shy of the figure President Obama had included in his 2016 budget request.”

That same bill also contained funding for Fort Drum as one of three East coast sites for missile defense consideration.

Derrick also cited Stefanik’s procedural vote against an amendment to bump veterans’ medical services by $15 million, a motion that failed 181 to 236.

“Congresswoman Stefanik is proud of her bipartisan voting record of fully funding and reforming the VA,” said Lenny Alcivar, a Stefanik campaign spokesman, in response to Derrick’s comments.

Since taking office, Stefanik has overseen the provision of over $700,000 in VA benefits for North Country veterans, Alcivar said.

Alcivar noted the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has declined to elevate Derrick to their top-tier support program designed to aid candidates in the country’s most competitive races.

“The reason former Republican Mike Derrick has been abandoned by the Democratic Party is because he publicly admits that reading vital military legislation isn’t on his to-do list, and falsely attacks Congresswoman Stefanik for outdated procedural votes while failing to offer one, single solution to the challenges facing our District,” Alcivar said.

Alcivar is referring to comments Derrick made to the Post-Star that he had not read the National Defense Authorization Act, which passed the House along party lines last month.

“This choice in this election is clear. Congresswoman Stefanik stands for new ideas that protect and support our military men and women in the 21st District,” Alcivar said. “Mike Derrick opposes legislation that would support our troops at Fort Drum, he opposes funding for East Coast missile defense, and opposes Elise’s bipartisan legislation to support military caregivers. Even worse for our District, Mike Derrick admits that reading vital military legislation is “not on his to do list — that’s wrong for the North Country.”

Matt Funiciello, the Green Party candidate, criticized both Stefanik and Derrick for not supporting a single-payer health care system, which he said would better serve military personnel.

“Why doesn’t Elise just sign onto it?” said Funiciello, referring to the United States National Health Care Act. “We could all have free healthcare tomorrow if we change the Medicare age to zero.”

‘VOTED TO UNDERFUND’ Stefanik, a Republican first elected in 2014, is up for re-election this year.

Democratic opponent Mike Derrick is a retired army colonel. As veterans, he and his wife receive care from the VA. “We must continue to improve access to care in this district, especially for those veterans who live in far corners of the North Country,” Derrick wrote in an email.

Derrick, who lives in Peru, criticized Stefanik for her April 2015 vote on a pair of appropriations bills.

“Elise Stefanik can’t run away from the fact that she voted to underfund veteran programs by more than $1 billion — which would impact 70,000 veterans alone, as well as their families,” said Derrick.

The MilCon-VA Appropriations Bill underfunded the VA by more than $1 billion, Derrick said, which impacted veterans’ health care, medical research, education and cemeteries.

Essex resident competing for Miss USA crown Neely Fortune aims to win national title in Sunday’s contest

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

ESSEX — If all goes according to plan, one summer resident will have one more trophy to add to her rapidly expanding case: Miss USA. Neely Fortune, who grew up summering in Essex, will compete for the national title in Las Vegas this Sunday.

The competition is scheduled to be televised live on Fox beginning at 7 p.m.

Fortune, a University of Vermont grad, resides in Burlington and is the current titleholder for Miss Vermont USA, winning that contest in November.

The community-minded wildlife biologist is deeply-involved in the Green Mountain State, supporting groups like the Vermont PTSD initiative and Vermont Adaptive, a group that helps children and young adults with physical challenges enjoy sports.

Fortune, 24, intends to pursue a graduate degree with the ultimate career plan of working with wildlife conservation projects sponsored by nonprofit or government organizations, according to a news release.

The endurance athlete has been involved in conservation research projects throughout the world, including four months spent in Patagonia, Chile.

“In her own life, pageantry, while dismissed as frivolous by many, has provided her the selfconfidence, the poise, and the skills to think on your feet, which have helped her to achieve some of her own goals,” said the release.

Fortune said while she’s in touch with her feminine side, she’s also not afraid to break down barriers.

“I’m an athlete, and going to Miss USA, I’ve been training like an athlete,” Fortune said in a video clip promoting the contest. “I don’t want to change my body to fit any specific mold or what I think somebody wants me to look like.”

Fortune, who arrived in Las Vegas last week, has been putting in long days leading up to the high-octane event, participating in everything from pageant-organized media blitzes to pushup contests for charity.

Proud parents Jan and John Fortune continue to live in the area. A brother, Brooks, lives in Denver.

Miss USA is not Miss America: the two events have co-existed in the pageant world for decades. While both feature swimsuit and gown presentations, the Miss America contest has a well-known talent component; Miss USA does not.

The winner of Miss USA will go on to compete for the Miss Universe title.

Stefanik aims to stamp out invasive species

New legislation joins formal adoption of state boat washing regulations to combat aquatic invasives

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

LAKE PLACID — Rep. Stefanik has introduced legislation that would direct the United States Postal Service to issue a special stamp that will raise awareness and funds to combat invasive species.

Net proceeds from the sale of the Combating Invasive Species Semipostal Stamp would be directed to the federal agencies for programs that work to eradicate invasives.

“It’s a creative way to create funding to combat invasive species,” Stefanik told the Sun. While it’s too early to estimate potential revenues, Stefanik said a similar stamp for breast cancer has raised $85 million.

The idea came out of a roundtable held in February in Clayton, Jefferson County.

Fred Monroe, executive director of the Adirondack Park Local Government Review Board, hailed Stefanik for the quick turnaround, which saw a number of New York’s congressional delegation sign on as co-sponsors alongside lawmakers from as far away as Guam.

“I give her a lot of credit — she jumped on all those bills,” Monroe said.

Citing the strong list of co-sponsors, Stefanik said she hopes the legislation will pass the House and eventually make it to the president’s desk.

State officials have flagged New York as the country’s primary gateway for aquatic invasives, with the New York Harbor and St. Lawrence Seaway acting as primary entry points.

Once established, aquatic invasives, including the including the Eurasian watermilfoil and the spiny waterflea, can rapidly spread through connecting waterbodies or by latching to vessels and equipment of boaters

and sportsmen.

Terrestrial invasives are also becoming a problem, especially among the St. Lawrence River, say experts.

Stefanik, whose family has a home in Willsboro, recalled the infestation of zebra mussel in Lake Champlain in just a few short years.

An estimated 50,000 non-native invasive animal and plant species have been introduced to the country, costing more than $100 billion annually, according to materials provided by Stefanik’s office.

The lawmaker also introduced a resolution expressing the commitment of the House to work to combat invasives on a nationwide level.

Monroe urged officials across the region to pass similar measures of support in their communities.

“It’s one area everyone agrees on,” Monroe said. “It’s a unifying issue, which is rare in the Adirondacks.”

At the state level, Gov. Andrew Cuomo ahead of the holiday weekend announced the

formal adoption of new regulations to protect against invasives.

Signed into law in 2014, the new statewide regulations require recreational boaters to take “reasonable precaution” against spreading aquatic invasives before launching their watercraft.

Those include the “removal of visible plant or animal matter, proper material disposal in a receptacle or upland location and treatment by operators launching watercraft or floating docks into public waters.”

Individual boaters are the “front line of defense” against the spread of invasives, said State senator Tom O’Mara, Chairman of the Senate Environmental Conservation Committee.

“Taking every possible step to stop the spread of destructive invasive species before they take hold is the most cost-effective and common-sense approach to combat this severe threat to the environment and economy of the Finger Lakes and other waterways statewide,” O’Mara said in a statement.

Cuomo said, “but at a minimum, pass the one impacting anyone running for the office of the Governor. I will go first — pass it and I will sign it into law today.”

Stec dismissed the bills as an “a la carte” approach.

“I want the governor to hammer down on this pension forfeiture deal,” Stec said.

Action on these two issues constantly leads public polls, he said.

Last month, Stec’s legislation to strip pension and retirement benefits from officials convicted of a crime failed to make it out of committee. The meeting, he said, represented the first opportunity that any ethics reform bill was voted on this year.

“It’s awful management of human resources and time,” Stec said. “The people of New York deserve a lot better from what they’re getting lately.”

The legislative session is slated to end on June 16. But Senate lawmakers should be able to review, negotiate and bring to the floor at least a handful of the executive measures, said Daniel MacEntee, a spokeswoman for

state Sen. Betty Little.

Many of the executive proposals will likely overlap with those offered in the senate report, MacEntee said, including measures that implement reforms of each of the fourprongs of the issue: prevention, treatment, recovery and law enforcement.

“There’s ample time to accomplish something that’s going to be meaningful and helpful to people,” MacEntee said.

The executive panel is beneficial, said MacEntee, because it allows officials to connect directly with people on the frontlines, including family members and former addicts.

A spokesman for the lieutenant governor said the assembly and senate’s heroin reports are “at the table.”

Those chambers will be able to offer up their bills as part of the process, the spokesman said.

Citing the GOP-organized Assembly panels held across the state, including a wellattended session in Plattsburgh, Assemblywoman Janet Duprey (R-Peru) said she was pleased that the wheels are starting to turn.

Stec: Failure to act on heroin, ethics a “self-inflicted crisis”

With just days left in the legislative session, the assemblyman says solutions could have been hammered out earlier

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

QUEENSBURY — Lieutenant Gov. Kathy Hochul announced last week that the state’s executive heroin task force aims to deliver a package of 25-30 executive recommendations to the legislature by June 1.

Assemblyman Dan Stec (R-Queensbury) said he is pleased the state is taking the issue seriously. But with just nine working days until the legislature breaks for the summer, the lawmaker called the accelerated timeline a “self-inflicted crisis.”

“What have these people done these past five months in session?” Stec asked. “This whole year has been by-the-seat-of-the-

pants legislation by this administration — it’s thrown together at the last minute.”

Following a series of forums across the state, Assembly Republicans released their own set of proposals to address opiate abuse in January. The state Senate also released a comprehensive report and filed a number bills in their chamber last month.

Stec said he doesn’t mind putting in the extra hours to hammer out legislation. But the Democratic-led Assembly was only in session four days in April, he said.

Citing last month’s sentencing of former Assembly speaker Sheldon Silver and former Senate majority leader Dean Skelos on a raft of federal corruption charges, Stec also hammered his colleagues for failure to execute what he called “meaningful” ethics and pension forfeiture reform this session.

Last month, Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced eight proposals — one for each of the state’s political offices — to close the socalled LLC loophole, including capping LLC contributions to state officials at $5,000.

“Pass all of them, or as many as you’d like,”

even insurance reform.

“Today’s focus really was on the specific needs of the rural communities,” Hochul said.

A panel of local experts testified in front of the group, which was designed, said Hochul, for experts to share their wish lists and sound off on state policy: “If you were the governor of the state of New York, what specific changes in law, policy or legislation would you propose that we enact to deal with this crisis?” Hochul asked.

Their answers: Greater access to recovery centers, detox centers and insurance reform.

‘A COMPLEX DISEASE’ “There’s an absolute dearth of psychiatric services available in upstate New York, and we need your help,” said Connie Wille, executive director of the Champlain Valley Family Center.

The availability of medically-supervised detox providers is critical for helping addicts who want to quit using, say experts. But wide gaps exist in the current system, such as the time period between when an addict makes the decision to get clean and when a bed at a detox facility becomes available.

Aside from a St. Joseph’s-run program in Saranac Lake, addicts have to travel to Potsdam and Albany for slots in already-taxed facilities.

The rural nature prevents even more of a struggle — including finding transportation — when addicts are in active withdrawal, which experts say presents agonizing flu-like symptoms.

Recovery centers, said Wille, should be available in “every county and borough.”

But the problems don’t stop when an addict finds a bed — cost is also an issue. Insurance companies typically often cover only five days of detox or inpatient services up front as part of managed care plans. Haggling might grant the patient a few additional days (but also eats up the time and energy of medical professionals, Wille said).

Kicking patients loose so early on in the recovery increases the chances of relapse, Wille said.

“Intervention with insurance companies is needed yesterday,” said Wille. “This is a very

www.suncommunitynews.com

complex disease, and we need some complex treatment services returned to it.”

St. Joseph’s CEO Robert Ross agreed access to nearby detox centers is key and called for insurance companies to be more flexible for detox services in their managed care plans.

Wille said insurance companies should be forced to pay for one of three FDA-approved medications that treat opiate addiction. The upfront cost for medication-assisted treatment, Wille added, is “far less” than incarcerations, hospitalizations and death.

It’s also not uncommon for an impatient referral to be denied, Wille said: “We are not referring inpatient if a client doesn’t need it.”

Wille also said a locator is needed to connect patients with support providers once released from inpatient rehab.

Community education employee retention issues — staffers often leave the nonprofit world for state jobs — must also be addressed, as well as providing housing for pregnant addicts (Every mother who has participated in existing programs offered by the network, Wille said, has delivered a healthy baby).

Barry Brogan, of the North Country Behavioral Healthcare Network, echoed the need for qualified staffers: “There needs to be better ways to move people into that as a career opportunity,” he said.

Essex County Public Health Director Linda Beers highlighted movements underway in Essex County, where a coalition received $120,000 state health foundation grant designed to address the epidemic.

The two-year funding package, which aligns with state and federal efforts to deploy resources to local communities, contains funds to hire a part-time staffer.

Beers asked the state to consider funding similar coalitions across the state. The director also called for needle exchange programs, which have proven to slow the spread of communicable diseases.

“We want one desperately,” Beers said of a needle drop box.

most hopeless,” said O’Neill, recalling when she first took office in January 2013.

Hundreds of residents had gathered at a community forum, “desperate to learn how they could help their loved ones.”

The Jefferson County Sheriff ’s Department, like others across the state, is stretched thin.

Detectives have been re-assigned to a drug task force. While redeploying resources has led to more arrests of dealers, the shortage has overburdened other detectives (who also spend their own time engaging at community forums afterhours).

The situation is unsustainable, O’Neill said.

The sheriff asked for more resources to go after dealers and echoed Wille’s request for more funding for community education.

To date, the state has spent $3.5 million on narcan, an anti-overdose medication. A further 100,000 state residents have been trained in its usage The efforts have worked, O’Neill said. In just six weeks, the antidote has saved the lives of 16 people in Jefferson County.

O’Neill hopes the emergence of another medication will put another dent in the epidemic.

In 6 to 8 weeks, the Jefferson County Jail will launch an experimental medical program that will administer vivitrol, a medication designed to block the high caused by opiates, to prisoners, who are vulnerable to relapse following their release.

The program, which is purely voluntary, is designed to give addicted prisoners who are serious about recovery a head start upon their release, said O’Neill.

Most prisoners have had a substance addiction at some point, she said.

Following a vetting process, addicts nearing the completion of their sentence will receive an injection at least two days before their release date. Once discharged, the addict will be linked up with counselors from their local treatment program. Recovery therapists and other medical professionals will then guide them through recovery for a

30-day period.

If addicts are interested, they will continue to receive the drug.

Alkermes, the pharmaceutical company, will pay for the injections while inmates are incarcerated, O’Neill said. Once released, costs will be likely be covered by a blend of personal insurance, Medicaid and hopefully, grants money.

“I don’t think funding is going to be an issue,” O’Neill said.

The drug cannot be administered to those who have had opioids in their system for 7 to 10 days, making prisoners a good test population for others who may benefit from the treatment, the sheriff said.

O’Neill, who met with the state Office of Alcohol and Substance Abuse to discuss the project after learning of successes in other jurisdictions, said she was encouraged by early trials and urged the panel to monitor the outcome to see if the program could be expanded statewide to all appropriate facilities “If that’s a statewide trend, I would encourage everyone to get involved in that,” O’Neill.

FAST TIMELINE Hochul expected movement on the package of proposals to be swift.

“We’re literally going to present to the governor by June 1 a set of recommendations,” she said.

The state legislature has until the end of their session on June 16 to debate and approve the bills.

The total cost for the proposals is yet to be determined, Hochul said.

This year’s $154 billion executive budget has allocated $1.2 billion to the state Office of Alcohol and Substance Abuse.

“So the numbers of our effort are significant,” said Cuomo last week at the forum in Staten Island, “but frankly nothing compared to what I believe we’re going to have to do.”

EXPERIMENTAL PROGRAM Jefferson County Sheriff Colleen O’Neill painted a picture of a community struggling with pervasive gloom.

“I think my community was at the point where they thought it was al-

Ransom attack

e have seen the enemy, and sadly it is us!

Welcome to the tricky world of Ransom Ware.

Yep, they got us. Some how, some way, somebody let them into our system, most likely with an innocent looking piece of email. They got past our safety nets and invaded several of our machines here at the newspaper office. All it took was one employee to open the wrong file and we were cooked.

Even more shocking, as we communicated with other newspapers around the state and country we discovered we were not alone. We just were not warned by a friendly source that we were so incredibly vulnerable.

Fortunately, in our case they encrypted nothing of value. No customer accounting information, news content, mailing lists, or creative copy were compromised.

Nevertheless, our failure was comfort. We’ve been eased into thinking our automatic backup procedures, protection software, mirrored drives and strong passwords were enough to ward off becoming a target.

Besides, what kind of value could our files hold that would be worth a skilled hacker’s time to even attempt to con money out of us?

Well, we taught them and thing or two. They encrypted our files and asked for BitCoin payment. We never even asked how much or made any attempt to communicate with them. We deleted the drives, figured we learned a valuable lesson and went about our business figuring out how we could replace our lost files by starting over.

We now know the safest way to protect against this stuff is to make good old fashion frequent, manual backups to thumb drives, or separate hard drives. Then disconnect them from the computer or server and put them somewhere safe, preferably off-site.

Should you then receive a message or find the next time you turn your computer on and it starts speaking, you can relax because one of the prior backups should be safe and you can easily restore your files.

We’ve turned over all our affected hard disks to the FBI for investigation.

Perhaps the most aggravating aspect of the experience was their closing comment: “The project is created for the sole purpose of instruction regarding the information security, as well as certification of anti-virus software for their suitability for data protection.

Together we make the Internet a better and safer place.

Have a nice day.”

Take a hard look at the third party

S

ummer is here.

The sweet, sweet heat coincides with the final week of the presidential primary calendar.

Let’s take stock: Donald Trump is the presumptive GOP nominee. Early on, the toughtalking real estate developer clobbered his way to the front of the pack, ultimately beating out 16 primary challengers by way of insults, leveraging the nonstop media coverage generated by his campaign and having the sheer luck of running in a cycle during which working class voters were finally able to see through their steady diet of spoonfed bull.

Across the aisle, Hillary Clinton, a Democrat, is widely expected to seal the deal after the polls close in New Jersey next Tuesday, finally garnering enough delegates to put her over the top in the pledged delegate count.

In doing so, Clinton will finally have put a stake through the heart of Bernie Sanders, the socialist who just won’t seem to go away, his campaign now running on fumes and conspiracy theories.

Oh dear. With five months until the general election, we can now look forward to endless discussion of electoral maps, rubbish about party building and healing and skeletons being dredged to the surface.

The two candidates will also pander every which way imaginable for your vote.

Yes, yours.

Thing is, despite these two coming out on top, we still don’t like them.

An ABC News/Washington Post poll released last week revealed both candidates have soaring unfavorables — like, really, really high.

Sixty percent of voters have an unfavorable view of Trump.

Clinton is at 53 percent, making her the most disliked Democratic candidate in modern history.

If the numbers hold, these two will have the highest unfavorable ratings since 1984.

This queasiness is on full-display.

Since Trump ran away from the pack on Super Tuesday, Republicans have been engaged in a very public work-through of the Five Stages of Grief as they digest a standard-bearer who has rewritten the political playbook — leaving them out of it.

The profane pugilist has managed to capture their party’s nomination despite, well, having a philosophy — if you could even call it that — that is completely unhinged from GOP orthodoxy, and in fact, is no more cognizant than that of your average toddler.

Adding further insult, Trump continues to lobs grenades at the party establishment, making his candidacy the equivalent of a dumpster fire.

The Democrats, for their part, are left with the uneviable problem of bringing the disaffected left flank of their party into the fold behind a candidate who fails to ignite the sense of passion needed to win their party a third term.

Above all, Clinton is simply untrustworthy, as evidenced by last week’s report by the state department’s inspector general that revealed lie after lie after lie when it comes to her private email server.

So really, what’s to like about these two?

The good news is we needn’t settle for supporting either a walking id with a Mussolini complex or a craven political opportunist who probably belongs behind bars.

There are alternatives.

Just this past weekend, the Libertarian Party settled on their ticket, nomi-

nating former New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson as their presidential candidate, and Gov. William Weld, former two-term governor of Massachusetts, as his running mate.

With a slogan of “minimum government, maximum freedom,” the party essentially views government as the problem, not the solution, to the country’s ills.

At the complete opposite end of the spectrum, holding the belief that the government plays a central role in improving the lives of Americans, the Green Party appears to again be coalescing behind Dr. Jill Stein, a Massachusetts physician, as their candidate.

Why not look into their platforms?

Considering the alternatives, the disaffected party faithful should find a lot to love.

After all, Sanders supporters owe the Democrats nothing. After managing to push Clinton to the left, why stand by her as she creeps back toward the center?

By that same token, Republicans who have spent their lives adhering to tried-and-true GOP values that their candidate has shown no inclination of supporting — from trade and foreign policy, economic issues like the minimum wage to his position on the Second Amendment — also owe their party nothing.

But, in a sense, that’s besides the point.

Voters who describe themselves as independent are at a record high of 43 percent, according to Gallup.

Yet another poll by the Wall Street Journal and NBC News revealed 47 percent of Americans would consider voting for a third-party candidate this year.

Those numbers essentially correlate to the aforementioned unfavorables.

Now, more than ever, seems like a ripe environment for change — or at least an emergence from a prolonged political torpor.

Americans owe it to themselves to take a hard look at these third-party candidates.

COMMENTARY

We must protect New Yorkers from the dangers of e-cigarettes

Little Bits

Linda Beers> Director of Public Health

Bear Claws

lbeers@co.essex.ny.us

Gordie Little

U

nder the New York Clean Indoor Air Law, New Yorkers have been successfully protected from the risks of secondhand exposure to combustible cigarette smoke when we work, shop, and dine at a restaurant. The health of New Yorkers could again be at risk when we are forced to do these same activities near someone using an e-cigarette. It is time for our state legislators to pass the bill including e-cigarettes in the Clean Indoor Air Act. E-cigarette use is of serious concern to the public health community. Use of e-cigarettes by kids is rising rapidly, with e-cigarette use among kids tripling in just one year. When they see adults using e-cigarettes it encourages them to start or continue this risky habit. They may also bridge to the use of combustible cigarettes. This is a huge public health concern, as young people who smoke are at risk for life-long addiction to nicotine, reduced lung growth and function, and early cardiovascular damage.

From 2011 to 2014, past 30-day use of e-cigarettes increased nine-fold for high school students (1.5% to 13.4%) and more than six-fold for middle school students (0.6% to 3.9%). Regular e-cigarette use among high school students (10.5%) is nearly twice that of adults over age 25 (5.7%). Exposure to nicotine in any form can have lasting effects on adolescent brain development.

Electronic cigarette aerosol is NOT harmless “water vapor” and is NOT as safe as clean air. E-cigarette aerosol can contain nicotine and other potentially harmful chemicals, including heavy metals, ultra-fine particulates, and

T

cancer-causing agents.

Firsthand exposure to the aerosol comes from personal use of an e-cigarette. Secondhand exposure occurs when the user exhales the aerosol, exposing a nonuser nearby. Studies have shown the use of e-cigarettes can cause short-term lung changes and irritation, while the long-term effects are unknown. Preliminary studies show that nonusers can be exposed to the same potentially harmful chemicals as users, which is particularly problematic for vulnerable populations such as children, pregnant women, and people with certain medical conditions.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration recently approving a final rule extending its authority to cover all products that meet the definition of a tobacco product, including e-cigarettes. I ask both houses of the New York State Legislature and Governor Cuomo follow suit and include e-cigarettes in New York’s Clean Indoor Air Law.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

EveryoneÊ canÊ winÊ withÊ compromise To the Editor: It is worth pointing out again that Port Henry began the process of dissolution by approval of only 19 votes over those who disapproved, with 200plus voters not participating in the October 2015 referendum. Clearly, not a landslide. Now, with a highly successful petition of 221 valid signatures, Port Henry has gained the right to vote on the advisory dissolution plan.

It was stated at numerous public hearings that if the plan was voted down, the dissolution process would stop. Only then could Port Henry explore coterminous.

Until the idea of coterminous came out, it seemed as though there were only two sides; dissolution or not. Now there is a third option that would provide what we all want. Everyone wants tax relief. Everyone wants Port Henry to prosper. Everyone wants to feel secure in their future living here.

Everyone wants a fair government that works for the best interests of its citizens.

Really, we are all on the same side. The door to better solutions would never have opened without the push for dissolution. Instead of either “save the village” or “dissolve the village”, a safer choice would be for Port Henry to become a Town-Village with a single new government and a single tax.

This appeals to new businesses and is a true savings for tax payers. Port Henry would maintain its assets, its grant opportunities, and have a legal and binding charter with the state of New York.

Over the next few months as the permissive referendum date approaches, please consider that dissolution is final. If it doesn’t work well, there is no going back. Vote the plan down. Let’s move toward a better and more secure future.

Nancy Gilbertson Port Henry

HarassedÊ atÊ PorterÊ Hospital To the Editor: I’ve had to report Porter Hospital’s security policies to Middlebury Police Chief Tom Hanley after feeling harassed over a period of months. If you’ve felt harassed, please e-mail me at: thewizard@gmavt.net. I promise to keep your information confidential. Perhaps, in numbers, we can ask the hospital to re-examine its security policies.

IÊ wasÊ strippedÊ of Ê myÊ rightsÊ atÊ ThurmanÊ meeting To the Editor: Thank you for this opportunity to voice my concerns.

On the evening of May 10, I attended a town board meeting at the Thurman town hall. Ms. Wood, Town of Thurman Supervisor, denied me my right to speak during the “freedom of the floor” session.

Let me explain.

I waited for the “freedom of the floor” session to start. The meeting was very heated almost from the start: many residents had concerns with the recent actions of the town supervisor and of some board members, the very reasons I chose to voice my concerns that night.

When the time came, Ms. Wood opened the session of “freedom of the floor.”

Many hands went up. One by one, Ms. Wood identified each person and allowed each person a chance to speak. This took quite a while, for a lot of people wanted to speak.

The board took a lot of criticism. I waited patiently until I felt everyone had a chance. I raised my hand and stood up.

At that point, Ms. Wood called on me saying, “Yes, Mr. Parent?”

Before I could start speaking, Ms. Wood turned to board member Gail Seaman and said, “We should close freedom of the floor.”

Gail Seaman said, “I will make that motion.”

Ms. Wood said, “The session is closed.”

Ms. Wood then looked at me and said, “Sorry, Keith.”

I stood there stripped of my rights: No second to the motion, no vote of the town board - Ms. Wood acted on her own! She makes her own rules on the fly.

I feel Ms. Wood had gotten her fill of criticism and she didn’t want to here from another resident she was sure was going to tell the town board of his dissatisfaction. If you did things in a more appropriate manner, you would not get so much criticism. You should do for the majority, not just a few select friends.

Let me also ask for your resignation, Ms. Wood!

hanks to my friend, Jerry Rambach, my girth prevents me from seeing my feet. Does anyone else have that problem?

I lay it all to Yum Yums.

When he first started delivering them to the radio station where I worked, I called them sugarglazed crullers. He called them Yum Yums. They were to die for. Of course his Australian Tea Cake was no slouch, either.

I chose to eat those confectionary delights on the air while I adlibbed Jerry’s commercials every morning. Between mouthfuls, we would talk about NY Giants football and his uncle who played for in the 1940s.

I was regaled with descriptions of legendary tailgate parties at the stadium where, I’m certain, Yum Yums were in evidence, along with steaks and hamburgers.

The Rambachs became family and we were honored to celebrate many special occasions together. A story Jerry told me about an elderly, former owner of his farm in Saranac, became an instant hit with me and my column readers.

Since leaving radio, Jerry and I left those daily chats behind, but have managed to remain in touch by other means. Those are the kinds of friendships I cherish almost more than any other.

They last lifetimes and beyond.

I never asked Jerry if he invented Yum Yums, but I’m sure his were unique. If Guinness had a world’s record for the most consumed by an overweight radio personality, I guess I would take first prize—hopefully a dozen Yum Yums.

That brings me to Bear Claws.

Don’t ask me how. It just seems like a natural segue. My friend Les Bradford sent me an e-mail describing some he and Helga purchased recently at a shop north of the Canadian border.

He called them Bear Signs.

Well, that conjured up an immediate mental image that took me a little off my feed. Then, it dawned on me what the heck he was talking about. For Kaye and me, they were always referred to as Bear Claws—different image completely.

So, of course, I jumped onto the famous Internet and checked it out. We were both right. He said he got his Bear Sign information from old time Western novels. Who knows where I got mine. But at least we didn’t call them Bear Scat. I haven’t had a Bear Sign or Bear Claw in a long time. I must find a place that makes them.

We recently spent 21 days in Myrtle Beach. While gone, I pondered about how long my yard grass would be. I shouldn’t have. Les loaded up his push mower and trimmer and chopped it all down nicely.

Then, he did it again, meeting up with a friend named Wilfred and repeating the grooming procedure. I felt blessed with such magnanimity.

Yum Yums, Bear Signs and the Green Green Grass of Home. Who could ask for anything more?

she said. “I still had a great time.”

Through this experience, the students learn more about not only themselves, but each other.

The sixth grade class joins together from Mooers Elementary and Rouses Point Elementary.

Some students, like Sophomore Michael Kopp, used this experience to get closer with friends.

Kopp said he easily made friends upon entering the middle school, but this camping trip made his friendships stronger.

“For me, that trip was all about being together,” Senior Madison Dumas said. “We learned a lot about each other.”

About 90 students will be participating in this year’s camping trip from June 7 to 10 and June 14 to 17.

The trip, which costs $10,000, was made possible by NCCS and several donations from community businesses and clubs.

This tradition began 50 years ago when four teachers came together and started this program as a way to get kids out of the classroom and learn in a different environment.

At first, students ventured to Lake Clear.

Renee Herzog remembered loving sitting by the campfire during her camping experience in Lake Clear.

She enjoyed her time so much that she volunteered to embark on her children’s trips. “We all had a great time,” she said. “It was a great experience.”

Herzog, Garrand and Southwick were joined by a number of other teachers and parents — each in T-shirts and shorts like their younger counterparts.

“We aren’t boring,” Garrand said.

NCCS is hopeful that this tradition will continue for years to come, along with the memories it created.

“It has touched so many lives,” Garrand said. “It really is a magical experience.”

To join in on the fun for this year or learn more about the program, email Southwick at lsouthwick@nccscougar.org.

North Country Rocks II on tap for P’Burgh

Independent acts come together to showcase their talents

84914

PLATTSBURGH — A new sound is coming through Plattsburgh. North Country Rocks II is a free music festival that will showcase five different homegrown acts, all performing for free Saturday, June 18, in Trinity Park. A mix of rock and roll, punk rock, hip hop, and more will grace the downtown Plattsburgh park, with local act Nothing Good kicking off the festivities at 7 p.m. Following them will be local rockers BREN, BluVudu recording artists Call Shotgun, Lyon Mountain rockers Comrade Nixon, and local hip hop collective The Plattsburgh Home Team.

Organizer Matthew Hall put together the event to shine a light on some of the more recently formed acts in the region.

“There’s a lot of exciting things happening in our local music scene, and I wanted to do something that would introduce some of these new bands in the area to a wider audience. I’ve seen similar local music festivals in places like Winooski and Albany, so I figured it was time for Plattsburgh to give it a shot”. The festival aims to offer an eclectic mix of the new underground sound of the North Country.

Admission to the festival is entirely free. Parking will be available in the nearby Durkee Street parking lot. Local businesses Rat Pâté Records, TRASHburgh, North Country Food Co-op, the Quarry Garden, and NVUS MGMT are sponsoring the event. The show is being organized by DIY Plattsburgh, an

organization dedicated to documenting and promoting independent arts in the Plattsburgh area. For more information, visit diyplattsburgh.wordpress.com.

The museum will open all of its exhibits on Saturday filled with cars, trucks, racecars and other antique vehicles.

Director Dick Soper said he’s hoping a bobsled will be brought in that raced down Mount Van Hoevenberg in North Elba, Essex County.

A bus, he said, is currently being built by Nova Bus to really showcase vehicles from the past to today.

The Alice T. Miner Museum in Chazy will provide activities for kids.

Project Coordinator Janet McCormick will be onsite teaching the craft of paper marbling. Also, a scavenger hunt will take place to find Alice Miner’s dog, Laddie.

Miner was a Chazy resident who, with the help of her husband, William, devoted much of her time improving the economy, education and culture of the Chazy area.

The museum was opened in 1924 by Miner. She opened her collection reflecting her own personal taste and those of her Chicago friends and the Colonial Revival Movement.

The remainder of attractions plan on simply opening the

PLATTSBURGH — The Woods and Things Exhibit will be on display at The Champlain Wine Company and 30 City Community and Visitors Center. There will be an opening and reception Friday, June 3, from 5 to 8 p.m. The exhibit will feature Adirondack critter art by local elementary school children, children’s book illustrators, Norman and Tory Taber, and animal drawings by seventh grade artist and animal lover, Nora Graves. Inspiration for this show is a new outdoor mural that will be unveiled Monday, July 4, outside of the CornerStone Bookshop.

Outside Art, founded by Julia Devine and Amy Guglielmo in January 2016, produces and creates public art for downtown Plattsburgh and spreads local awareness of public art projects around the world. Public art includes murals, sculptures, structures, and multimedia installations. They work with local, regional, and national artists to animate our spaces and hope Plattsburgh will become a tourist destination for art and a place for artists to settle and create. In August 2015, Devine and Guglielmo created the Battle of Plattsburgh mural outside of 30 City/The Champlain Wine Co. along with artists Shawna Armstrong. Devine also coordinated the community tile making events for the Mountain Lake Mandala mural.

The next Outside Art project, to be unveiled during the 2016 July 4 celebration in Plattsburgh, is the children’s mural, which will be installed outside the Corner-Stone Bookshop and designed by local children’s book illustrators and SUNY Plattsburgh Art Professors Norman and Tory Taber. Future projects in the works include more murals (large and small) in expected and unexpected places, a creative play structure for children, a sculpture walk, and temporary installations.

BobcatsÊ winÊ ClassÊ DÊ baseballÊ title

PLATTSBURGH — Last season, it came down to the final at-bat as the Northern Adirondack varsity baseball team to claim the Section VII/Class C title away from perennial champion Ticonderoga.

While many things have changed over the past year, one thing has not: The bobcats are sectional champions.

This year, they completed the feat as a Class D school, again beating a perennial class power in Lake Placid, 14-2, at Chip Cummings Field May 27.

Josh Juntunen went the distance in victory on the mound for the Bobcats, allowing only six hits and three walks while striking out five. He also provided a pair of hits and an RBI in the win at the plate.

Stephen Peryea, who drove in the game-winning run in 2015, led the offense in 2016 with a trio of hits and RBI, while Bailey Cross added three more hits to the Bobcat attack along with a pair of RBI.

Softball

Lady Bobcats fall to Crown Point in D final

PLATTSBURGH — The Northern Adirndack varsity softball team started the 2016 Class D postseason as the seventh seed.

They went onto double their win total from the regular season with wins over second seed Minerva/Newcomb and third seed Lake Placid before falling in the Class D championship game to a Crown Point team who was on a mission after losing the crown one year ago.

The Panthers jumped out with three runs in the bottom of the first en route to an 8-4 win May 27, as The Bobcats were able to tie the game in the third inning but were turned away as Crown Point scored five runs in their next two at-bats.

Mariah Malone limited the Bobcat bats to five hits over seven inning to record the win while striking out five batters and finding the clutch pitch when she needed it.

Logan Harrington had a double in the game for the Panthers, while Savannah Crammond, Shawna McIntosh, Torrie Vradenburg, Logan Harrington and Amber DuShane helped lead the Crown Point offense.

For the Bobcats, Natalie Boulrice took the loss in the circle while Violet Chaney and Taylor Durnin each connected on doubles.

Lady Bobcats end Lake Placid softball season LAKE PLACID — The seventh-seeded Bobcats were not to be denied a place in the Class D finals, scoring an opening round win against Minerva/Newcomb before scoring in each of the first four innings to defeat the Lake Placid Lady Blue Bombers, 6-5, May 25.

The Bobcats built up a 6-1 lead over four trips to the plate, a lead they maintained until the bottom of the seventh, when the Blue Bombers mounted a rally that fell one run short.

Natalie Boulrice took the win for the Bobcats, while Taylor Durnin and Madison Burnell each drove in a pair of runs.

Mia Kennedy was key for the Blue Bombers, connecting on a double while driving in four. Kiana Fell also had a double, while Cameron Shipman had the other two singles in the Blue Bombers four-hit attack. Elaina Smith surrendered only six hits in the loss. Both teams committed three errors.

NCCS finished sixth at Section VII golf tournament Stahl, Kroes need 20 holes on day 2 to decide victor

By Keith Lobdell

keith@suncommunitynews.com

SANTA CLARA — While day one was not as close in deciding a team champion, day two needed extra holes to determine the Section VII individual champion.

Moriah sophomore Joey Stahl was up to the extra challenge, paring both playoff holes, the Par 4 first and Par 5 18th, ending the chances of Lake Placid’s Bjorn Kroes in the individual championship.

Both golfers were in the first group to tee off day one and last to tee off on day two, with Stahl shooting a 75 on day one (tied for the first day lead with Saranac Lake’s Zack Ellsworth) and Kroes a 76.

Stahl dropped his score by one stroke on day two with a 74, while Kroes went three lower with a one-over par 73 to set up the extra holes, where Kroes equaled Stahl’s par on the first before being left on the green, lying five with no chance to win as Stahls ball dropped to the bottom of the cup for par.

Stahl and Kroes will lead the top golfers in Section VII to Ithaca for the NYSPHSAA championships June 4-6 at the Cornell Golf Course.

Day one co-leader Ellsworth shot an 83 on day two, finishing with a score of 158, while three golfers — Gavin Plympton of Peru (78-82), Tristin Fitzgerald of Saranac Lake (8278) and Drew Maiorca of Lake Placid (84-76) each finished at 160. Saranac Lake’s Mike Rice followed with a 79-82-161, while AuSable Valley’s Nate Devins (80-84) shot a 164 and Moriah’s Kyle Wilson (84-82) a 166.

Saranac Lake’s Tanner Courcelle will serve as an alternate for the team, but earned All Star status with rounds of 86 and 83 for a two-day total of 169.

In the team championship, the top-ranked Blue Bombers were unable to keep pace with rival Saranac Lake, whose top four scores carded a 322 score, 14 ahead of Lake Placid’s 336.

Peru followed with a 340, while AuSable Valley followed in fourth at 344.
