New supervisors take office in Essex County Wes Miga takes over for George Canon

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

ELIZABETHTOWN — In with the new, out with the old.

The four newest members of the Essex County Board of Supervisors took office on Monday.

Once sworn in, the freshly-minted lawmakers — Joseph Giordano (I-Ticonderoga), Wes Miga (R-Newcomb) James Monty (R-Lewis) and Michael “Ike” Tyler (R-Westport) — were promenaded around the chamber and introduced to

their colleagues.

Then they got to work, running through a series of procedural votes before their first big test: Should they give themselves a three percent pay raise?

Monty, Giordano and Tyler joined Noel Merrihew (R-Elizabethtown), Archie Depo (D-Jay), Tom Scozzafava (R-Moriah) and Ronald Moore (R-North Hudson) in voting against the resolution.

But it was the wrong one: They were instead voting on whether supervisors should be compensated at all.

“If this resolution fails, then nobody gets paid,” said County Manager Dan Palmer as the votes were tallied.

It narrowly passed by weighted vote, 1512-1409.

Last session, lawmakers in favor of the raises said the pay bumps were necessary to keep pace with the private sector and to attract younger people to serve in public office. Furthermore, advocates, including the board’s leadership, said not every lawmaker earned a pension from past careers.

Those against the increase said it set a bad example in the midst of ongoing austerity measures, including this year’s 6 percent tax hike.

The raises, now official, bring salaries for the rank and file supervisors to $18,394.28; $20,394.28 for the budget liaison >> Story Continued | pg. 14

ADK brewery hosting ice festival christina@suncommunitynews.com

LAKE GEORGE — An expansion to The Adirondack Pub and Brewery’s Festival of Barrels is bringing funky disco fun and ice-themed events for participants, and organizers are hopeful the creation of the inaugural Funky Ice Festival will touch more than just the brewery.

“When people think Lake George, they think June, July and August,” said James McReynolds, brewery manager.

The Winter Carnival organizers, he said, have put Lake George on the map throughout February with their successful event. He’s hopeful a January events could expand in a similar fashion throughout the area.

The brewery saw just a taste of that possibility in 2012, when the first Festival of Barrels was held. It drew more than 500 guests and has continued to grow.

Set for Jan. 22-23 from 4-9 p.m., the Funky Ice Festival will feature a five-foot disco ball, unique playable ice piano and a DJ on tap with vinyl turntables. The public is invited to bring their own vinyl records to be played. A drink ice luge, two ice bars with signature drinks, disco inspired cocktails, fireside s’more making and an ice sculpting demonstration will also be available.

Annual Indian Lake ice fishing derby canceled

By Bill Quinlivan

news@suncommunitynews.com

INDIAN LAKE — With record-breaking temperatures right up to the Christmas holiday, there is no doubt that we are looking at a very unusual start to winter.

For those who are adverse to the frost, this is a welcome change, but for many winter-loving Adirondack residents, the recent warm weather phenomenon represents disappointment.

The Indian Lake/Blue Mountain Fish and Game Club’s Ice Fishing Derby, scheduled for Jan. 16, has been canceled.

“We thought about postponing [the derby]”, said Club Secretary Mark Shaw, “but with other derbies in the area, and if others were postponed, it would complicate things.”

Even if ice did manage to form on Lake Adirondack, said Shaw, it’s best not to risk it.

This annual event, traditionally held on the third Saturday of January, has always been well attended. It includes hourly prizes for three largest pike and two largest perch and a grand prize for the biggest catch of the day (pike or perch).

Up to $1,200 in door prizes were to be offered this year.

Shaw said that the club is thankful for all the registrants, volunteers and donations. All registrations will be refunded.

Despite weather, winter carnivals moving ahead as planned O’Neill said the Saranac Lake set up is the same, with many indoor activities and non-weather dependent outside events, such as the parade.

The ice palace is not in question, with the just the size of the blocks still up in the air. That relatively minor detail is nothing compared to the challenging construction in the palace’s history, the first of which was built in 1899.

“They used horses and hand tools,” said O’Neill of the earliest year.

“They actually chose to make it more difficult,” she said, as the blocks were then transported for construction to a hill top setting where North Country Community College now stands.

Today, heavy equipment replaces the horses and the palace resides on the shores of Lake Flower.

Saranac Lake was the coldest spot in the continental U.S. Tuesday, Jan. 5, according to the National Weather Service, hitting 21 degrees below zero.

Organizers for both carnivals will keep the public informed of schedules and any possible changes on their respective websites.

Record warmth not affecting events, so far

By Christina Scanlon

christina@suncommunitynews.com

LAKE GEORGE — Will the recent cold snap be enough for Winter Carnivals in the region to continue as planned?

Organizers in Lake George and Saranac Lake say yes.

“Either way, it’s on regardless of the weather,” said Colleen O’Neill, Saranac Lake Winter Carnival Committee public relations chair.

The weather does seem to be cooperating, though. Earlier this week, photos were posted to the Carnival’s Facebook page showing enough ice on Lake Flower, where ice for the famed ice palace is cut, to take on a layer of snow.

O’Neill said the palace wasn’t worried about the lack of ice formation.

“We can always adjust building. It’s amazing what they do in a short amount of time. They don’t really need massive ice blocks. They can do amazing things with small blocks. It’s really just stretch of cold weather that they need and it looks like that we’ll have that.”

In Lake George, ice on the lake is a different story. Over the weekend, the Polar Plunge took place in water that registered 46 degrees.

Photos were posted to Facebook of water skiers in the lake on Christmas Day. Co-chair Linda Duffy said she was aware of the photo, though there was no reason for alarm.

“There have been years with no ice. A lot of our events are

not on the ice,” she said. For those that depend on the ice, there’s still hope.

“In about two weeks we’ll know for sure, but we have plans in place. We’ve moved things before.”

Moving things can mean relocating a particular event that doesn’t require the ice, such as the cook-off, to a park or street.

“The fireworks will still go off, even if the major races don’t.

If we don’t have 12 inches of ice by second or third weekend, then we could possibly use a smaller lake.” Some events could be bumped to the final weekend, as well.

Full steam ahead

s we move into the new year and have settled into the new brand, it’s time for the next phase of growth for your weekly newspaper.

This weekend we will be installing two new pieces of production equipment. Our 8 into 1 inserting machine is getting a new partner when we bring online our new 12 into 1 automated inserter.

With greater capacity and a new central vacuum system these important production tools will help our dedicated crews in the back shop to process your paper and make certain all the various inserts are prepped for delivery throughout the region.

Another idea that will be implemented shortly will be our $100,000 Promotional Grant Program.

Throughout the year we’ve always made space available to charitable organizations to help them get their message to you. Many of these organization work on limited funds but their services are a key components to life in our region.

The new grants will allow for better planning of an entire communication message rather than asking, hat in hand, each time the need arises.

The grants to these organizations will not affect emergency requests from individuals or families in need due to illness, accidents or tragedies. The paper has always played an important role helping out as needed. The grant program will improve that capacity to serve our friends and neighbors.

Now, who doesn’t love a good contest? Winning a prize is just pure fun and we’ve just contracted with one of the nations best companies to bring a back end platform to aid the contest process for both the paper and for advertisers that wish to run their own contests. Watch for our Valentines Day roll out soon to be followed up by a March Madness Bracket Program.

Free newspapers like The Sun in New York and The Eagle in Vermont depend strictly on the support from community businesses and institutions that use the newspaper to market their goods and services.

Despite what you may hear or have been told about newspapers dying, the facts are, print newspaper advertising is still the single best source for reaching local buyers and those seeking services.

We’ve got more projects in the pipeline but these are top of list as we move optimistically into 2016 with a full head of steam. Thank you for supporting your locally owned community papers.

Public access policy a great model

A

s we head into the darkest days of winter, one school district has turned on the light: Kudos to Schroon Lake Central School District for opening their doors to the public as part of their continuing education program.

Beginning this week, Schroon residents will have access to a series of evening classes, including an introduction to basic household electricity, woodworking, weight training, indoor walking and even a self defense course.

What do these have in common?

They’re all accessible, common-sense offerings designed to benefit as many people in the community as possible.

After all, we all have electricity; most of us could stand to shed a few pounds, and in this era of gloomy uncertainty, it’s not a bad idea to brush up on our self-protection techniques.

Hosting continuing education programs at public schools is a great idea and is a program that should be emulated by all school districts in the North Country.

Not only do these programs act in the best interest of the taxpayers, but help create a sense of community, especially during budget season, when programs are never far from the chopping block.

What a better way to instill the importance of programs to the general public by making them universally available?

But more importantly, these after hours programs feed into the work that other governmental agencies are conducting for the greater good, including the Creating Healthy Schools and Communities Program.

Launched in November, the state-funded, county-implemented project aims to improve public health in high-need schools and communities in Essex and Clinton counties over the next five years.

The program hinges on two main goals: Improving access to healthy foods and promoting physical activity.

Public schools are critical to both.

While Americans are being urged to eat healthier and lead more active lives, it’s often difficult to follow this advice in our Adirondack neighborhoods, which are rural, remote, vast and dark.

Walking isn’t the most attractive option on rural highways, nor is a gym feasible for those of us living paycheck-to-paycheck.

For too many communities, these factors make the healthy choice the road less traveled.

Noting these disparities isn’t making excuses — it’s facing the facts.

For years, experts have said altering physical environments to become more conducive to physical activity plays a vastly important role in improving public health.

Policies are already taking shape, from smart growth programs designed to enhance walkability in town centers to the creation of bike and other recre-

As part of opening its doors to the community, a community archery league will take place under physical education teacher and archery team coach Mike Sharp starting Jan. 12 from 5:30 until 7:30 p.m. and Feb. 17 from 3 until 5 p.m. More classes will be offered, and cost for the class is a donation to support the SLCS archery team.

ational paths.

Now, the next logical step — perhaps the only one in these cash-strapped communities — is bringing public schools into the fold.

After all, each community has a school, even the most remote and impoverished. And experts have long-since determined that improving their accessibility is the middle ground between constructing new governmental facilities and simply doing nothing.

But more often than not, the doors are locked after the final bell rings and the last sneaker leaves the gymnasium floor.

We understood the arguments against keeping public facilities open: districts lack the funds and manpower to run programs and are concerned about liability and maintenance costs.

Viable concerns, sure.

But we’d like to think that enough precedent exists for schools to create joint use agreements with their partners in the community.

Is keeping schools open a magic bullet to keeping the public fit and engaged?

No. But it’s a start.

ThankÊ youÊ Patrick!

To the Editor: I wish to publicly thank Patrick Riedinger, sophomore at Johnsburg Central School, who took it upon himself to organize the JYC Winter Gear Swap Day held at JCS on Dec. 5. In the past, the Johnsburg Youth Committee has held the Winter Swap in late October or early November, but this year the committee missed the timing. Thanks also to JCS for providing the space and Sports Page of Glens Falls for their donations to the winter sale. But it wouldn’t have happened if Patrick hadn’t volunteered to do what needed to be done to carry it off. It was very successfully executed. Thank you, Patrick.

Hospital plans flawed

To the Editor: Senator Little, I am writing this letter to you out of my concern over the plans InterLakes Health/Moses Ludington Hospital Interim-CEO Mr. Rod Boula has for this critical access care hospital.

Essentially it is this: Close our PCU and operate this facility strictly as a 24/7 ER. (We also have some specialty clinics, but their status should not be affected by this plan.)

There are several problems with this plan.

1. Although MLH is a small rural hospital, it can treat a variety of health problems, and do so in a local town setting so our community does not necessarily have to travel considerable distances for this level of care. These include IV antibiotics for stubborn infections, monitoring of fluids and Lasix administration for congestive heart failure, bowel rest and fluids for pancreatitis, postsurgical rehab, medications and monitoring for COPD exacerbations and asthma flares to list just a few.

2. Additionally, MLH admits some ER patients as “observation status” patients. That means they keep a close eye on patients with symptoms that may or may not evolve into more complicated problems: Atypical chest pain, ruling out acute coronary syndrome or MI. Sometimes someone has a small bowel obstruction that can be cleared by just administering fluids and pain medications and keeping the patient n.p.o. (“nothing by mouth”).

Mr. Boula’s plan is that we transfer all these patients up to “his” hospital in Elizabethtown (Elizabethtown Community Hospital) using our limited ambulance resources to do so. The problem here is two-fold: Limited ambulance services and patients declining treatment due to travel issues.

2A. If a patient presents to the MLH ER with stroke-like symptoms, speedy transfer to a higher level of care facility is of the utmost essence.

There is a small window of time that a patient can be treated with anticlotting medication. I foresee a problem with our local ambulance services being tied up transporting other ER patients for the 50-minute one-way trip up to Elizabethtown for observation admissions.

2B. Additionally, there are patients who are reluctant at being admitted to the hospital setting at all, even locally. I am concerned that even more patients will refuse this trip up to Elizabethtown and simply walk out of the ER AMA (“against medical advice”) and thus jeopardize their outcomes.

3. Lastly, Moses-Ludington Hospital offers hospice care to our community in an easy-to-get-to quiet and comfortable setting for folks going through the end-of-life process. Loved ones can visit easily and frequently. This service will no longer be offered to our community; it will now be taking place in Elizabethtown. What impact do you imagine this will have on folks having to drive the nearly two hour round-trip drive to Elizabethtown to spend the last days and moments with these hospice patients? What about the difficult and dangerous driving conditions in the winter? What about people who don’t have cars and can’t afford to hire a cab?

Senator Little, if there is anything you can do for us, it would be very much appreciated. We here in Ticonderoga really need your help.

DonÕ tÊ blameÊ theÊ NRA

To the Editor: This letter is in response to Dick Barney’s Letter to the Editor titled “Stand up to the NRA” in the Dec. 19 issue of the The Sun. Gullible liberals have been led to believe that the NRA is largely to blame for the terroristic acts committed by deranged individuals. Really? Whether they use a gun, knife, sword, bomb, or even a motor vehicle, it all boils down to the same thing. Mentally disturbed people or those bent on destroying our way of life. We have systematically shut down thousands of mental institutions over the last 35-40 years, where most of these individuals should be housed. We do not properly vet the thousands of people entering our country, especially those from middle eastern countries. The simplistic answer to terrorism by liberal democrats is more gun control.

According to Dick, gun violence exists nowhere else in the world where gun ownership is limited. Tell that to the people of France and several other European countries who have very restrictive gun laws.

I have to wonder if Dick even knows what a semi-automatic weapon is, but he would love to see them banned. He mentions an AK-47 as if it is any different in performance than dozens of other weapon styles.

In closing, Dick should know the NRA has no desire to put weapons into the hands of criminals, the mentally ill, or terrorists. They strongly support the second amendment rights of law abiding citizens who wish to own a gun, whether it be for hunting, self defense, target shooting or any other legal purpose.

AÊ tributeÊ toÊ Mom

To the Editor: Thank you to all my family and to all the people in the community of Ticonderoga and surrounding areas who have been there with such support since the passing of my mother Geri White. This was a rough time for all our family and especially at the holiday time, but we also chose to celebrate the wonderful life my mom had and all the great memories so many have of times with her. She had a great will to live and loved her family and friends so much. She was a great cook and before getting ill loved to have family dinners and even after still wanted to contribute a dish to the dinner my daughter Kim was usually making. She belonged to many organizations and enjoyed going to all their events right up to when she couldn’t possibly go any longer. When my two brothers and I were kids, my mom helped with all kinds of programs we were involved in, had wonderful parties for us with our friends for birthdays and events like Halloween. My mom is going to be missed by so many and our sorrow is great at this time, but we have wonderful family and friends and will get through this. A big part of that will be all the great memories we have and smile and humor we remember a great lady having. She was loved by so many and a great member of our community as was shown at her service with the attendance and all the cards and flowers that have been received in her honor. We love you mom.

areÊ forÊ SharingÊ aÊ success TheÊ USAÊ doesnÕ tÊ needÊ TrumpÊ orÊ Cruz HolidaysÊ To the Editor: To the Editor: Is anyone surprised that Trump has appeared on FOX News more than any other candidate? Trump and FOX News are joined at the hip as both tell fictional stories on a regular basis.

To me Trump is the perfect Republican and has all the attributes associated with the doctrine of the party. Hate has always been part of the Republican mantra and stretching the truth is something they do with straight faces.

Trump’s nearest adversary Ted Cruz is a good example of a stone thrower who lives in a glass house. Born in Canada to a Cuban Father and an American Mother I fail to see how he can even run for President. Wasn’t it Cruz who along with Trump who complained that President Obama wasn’t born in the USA? Even when it was proved that our President was born in the USA, Cruz and Trump still pounded on their drums.

So here we are getting ready to elect another President and best Republican candidate has left he race. Lindsey Graham was someone who called things as they were and his honesty couldn’t be questioned. He also served our Country before becoming and elected official and he knows the perils of war. Trump did as many privileged did and used deferments rather than serve our Nation. Now he wants to show what a tough guy he is and has no problem with sending others once again to war. Cruz who also never served had the audacity to slander two-war hero’s John Kerry and Chuck Hagel and is also ready to send your children and grandchildren to war.

America doesn’t need another war and we surely don’t need Trump or Cruz. To Republicans an immigrant is anyone that doesn’t fit their mold.

My grandparents and the grandparents of millions of Americans were immigrants and they came from every corner of the earth. Our Country is one made from immigrants and for this we should be thankful. Our forefathers would be appalled by the fear mongering being tossed about by draft dodgers like Trump and others who would thrive on the blood of those they would put in harms way. I am not ready to have my grandchildren sacrificed, are you? May God Bless America!

Little Bits Selling door to door Gordie Little

W

ho remembers Cloverine Salve? In the 1940s, I picked up a comic book and an ad leaped off the page. It begged me to sell the salve door-to-door with the promise of “prizes” galore.

I was thrilled when that long cardboard tube arrived with round tins of salve. I hit up family members first. Then, I covered the neighborhood, knocking on doors and giving it my best pitch.

I can’t remember if I sold all of them or if my mother had to take up the slack.

I wanted what was pictured in the prize paper as a “Beautiful Indian Blanket.” I doubt if I peddled enough to “win” it, but I sent in the money and got a small prize by return mail. It was a scheme that worked for the company, but was eventually outlawed.

I admit to being a terrible salesman. I once signed up as an encyclopedia salesman and was hit in the back side by many slammed doors. I later “worked” as a weekend salesman for a building company on Long Island and could never get anyone to sign on the dotted line.

Kaye sold Avon Products and did very well. Last week, while cleaning out a sagging book case in the kitchen, laden with her cook book collection, she handed me a green hard-covered book.

This first edition of “Watkins Household Hints” dates to 1941 and elicited a plethora of memories. The J. R. Watkins Company, dating back to the 19th century, involved millions of families by selling its products door-to-door.

My older brother Jim remembers the Watkins salesman coming to our house in Westchester County.

I do not. Kaye has vivid recollections of Watkins products in the Vaughan home up in Saranac Lake.

Our copy of the book was signed by my late father, Russell E. Little, and is treasured for that reason. Also inside were several paper-backed publications. One is “Home and Garden Bulletin No. 62” titled “Removing Stains from Fabrics” from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Another is “Bulletin No. 67, “Insects and Related Pests of House Plants; how to control them.” A third is “Cheese in Your Meals,” issued by the Agriculture Department in July 1943. One paragraph reads, “In wartime, food supplies for civilian use change rapidly. It’s part of patriotism to be ready to shift our cooking and eating habits on short notice.”

And, finally, there is a tiny “United Nations Cook Book” published by Crowley’s Milk Company.

And you wonder why I save such things. In a small drawer near my chair is a Fuller Brush used for many years on our clothes. Hey, it’s guaranteed for life. We also have Stanley Home Products in our cabinets that go back decades.

Kaye has to clean her shelves without consulting me. I would never let her discard anything.

That’s the difference between us.

She is my conscience. Love that lady.

Conservation legislation celebrated locally

By Christina Scanlon

christina@suncommunitynews.com

LAKE GEORGE — A vote in Washington earlier this month is being celebrated locally, as tax incentives for the creation of conservation easements were approved.

“It makes a real difference in water quality and recreation,” said John Sheehan, Adirondack Council director of communications.

In addition to helping keep forests in tact, helping to filter run off and recharging the water supply, Sheehan said farmland could remain as undeveloped land.

While landowners may be encouraged by the tax incentive to create the easements, they are not the only to benefit from the program, according to Jordyn Conway, development associate for the Lake George Land Conservancy. The LGLC already manages 12 such easements that includes 840 acres, 300 feet of lake shoreline, and thousands of feet along stream corridors, as the program was enacted in 2006 on a temporary basis.

The draw for tourists, potential increases in neighboring property values are a resulting economic benefit, said Conway, and may be one way to offset the decrease in property tax revenue for municipalities.

The enhanced tax incentives for property owners that cre-

ate the conservation easements on their land carry on for 15 years, explained LGLC Executive Director Jamie Brown.

The easements are voluntary and restrict certain uses, dependent upon the individual agreement.

“We work as partners,” said Brown of the LGLC and landowners.

The property remains in the ownership of the land owner. It can be sold or mortgaged.

“You can still build on it, even cut trees. It all depends on the agreement. Some are very restrictive,” he said. “It continues to stay on tax roll, but may have a lesser value.” That value can be affected by how limiting the restrictions are.

For example, if one property accepted by LGLC had the ability to have several home built on it, it would be assessed for that value. After the easements are in place, the property is assessed again. A chunk of land that is now restricted from building new homes, would be worth less. The decrease in value can be used for tax purposes the year it occurred and the following 15 years for up to 50 percent of adjusted gross income.

Before accepting conservation easements, LGLC considers that potential impact and works with those that could be affected, said Conway. The land must also meet the needs of the LGLC mission.

Brown said there have been times in the agency’s history

when a donation was not accepted.

“Sometimes, they might be better building lots. We aren’t against development,” he said.

Properties that are especially attractive to LGLC are those that connect with already owned properties, as well as those with steep inclines that could affect run-off into the lake. Established wildlife and plant life also play a role in determining the property’s desirability.

Benefits, said Sheehan, can also be seen in other property values. While an easement may affect a donated property’s value, keeping an area pristine and free from development can add value to neighboring land.

Some family- or group-owned properties, explained Sheehan, could have been purchased generations ago, now passed on to family members but with a hefty tax bill attached.

Instead of forcing the sale of land, a conservation easement, could be the answer to maintaining ownership.

The properties are inspected annually to ensure the agreements are being followed.

LGLC is a member of the Land Trust Alliance, the national land conservation organization that led the campaign for permanence. LGLC was among the 1,100 land trusts across the country to support the enhanced incentive through a collaborative, multi-year campaign.

Hello Beautiful expands space, offerings of goods

By Christina Scanlon

christina@suncommunitynews.com

SCHROON— The recently completed addition at Hello Beautiful, 1093 Route 9, brings the salon more than new square footage — it offers a space for local, handmade and specialty items for sale, an extension of the needs of the customer.

For owner Yunhui, those customers are much more.

“I’ve been in this business for 18 years,” she said.

“It’s a different relationship,” she said. “It’s more than a hairdresser and a customer. It’s a friendship.”

Her first male and female clients still come to her for appointments.

“Can you believe that?” she said.

It’s those lasting relationships that helped push her to expand her business.

Question of The Month “It snowed five feet and school is cancelled for a week. What do you do to keep from getting bored?”

Johnsburg Central School Mrs. Knickerbocker’s Kindergarten class Abbey Perryman: “If it was a snow day for five days and I didn’t want to get bored, I would build snowmen, go sledding, and build snow angels.”

Sullivan Richards: “I would play with my sister and make snow angels.”

Bakers Mills Kjerstia Schilinski > Columnist

“Everybody is in it. They all helped to make this. It’s really for all of us,” she said.

What’s on the shelves are items she and her customers will love.

Scarves, blankets, hats, handmade soaps, lotions, candles and slippers will be joined in the near future by jewelry ad pottery.

It was 19 years ago she came from South Korea to the U.S., months later attending CVTech and launching her career, those early relationships are still an inspiring force.

Abigail Church: “If I was bored, I would go outside and make snow angels and build a snowman and a snow castle.”

Jacqueline SanAntonio: “I would go sledding with my dad and my brother and sister. I would build a snowman and go skiing.”

Taylor Smith: “I would build a snowman.”

Gabriel Pesquera: “If there was five days with no school, I would go skiing for all five days.”

Ben Garvin: “I would build a snowman. I would make snow angels. I would go sledding.”

Aaliyah McNeil: “I would skate, and I would throw snowballs at my brother, Durrell.”

Aubrey Brown: “I would go ice skating, and I would build snowmen.”

Mrs. Flanagan’s Kindergarten class Maggie Pratt: “I would go outside and build a snowman, and then the next day I will go outside and make a snow angel.”

H

appy New Year to you all. I hope 2016 will be a great year for you all. Try to make your new year family- and neighbor

-friendly.

Hunting season is over so now the deer can roam freely in the roads. When you travel, keep a watchful eye open. Suzy Virgil had her eyes on the road but still the deer shot out from nowhere to hit her car. Before she got home she saw the second deer but avoided it.

Friday, I enjoyed watching the Rose Bowl Parade with Joan Ross. I think it is the first time I watched the whole thing all the way through. It was great to watch with a special friend.

Pansy Allen fell at the Tri-County Nursing home and was in the hospital for several days. She has returned to the Nursing home, but will have to wear a neck brace for many weeks.

Agnes Straight fell also and will have to take it easy for a while to heal.

Jeff Allen is a patient in Glens Falls Hospital.

I talked to Uncle Oliver in Florida. The temperature has been in the 80s. His knees and hip have been hurting so he had to slow down on playing golf. Aunt Ginny has some bruises and hurts from a fall.

Gore Mountain folks are very happy to see the snow. It helps with people to have jobs and helps the stores and gas stations in the area. I just wish we wouldn’t get the ice.

Many enjoyed going to Ed and Noreen Bennett’s on New Year’s Day to celebrate Noreen’s birthday.

There was a huge gathering at Kurt and Rachel Werger’s home on Christmas Eve to celebrate Jesus’ birthday. Ron and Kathy were happy to have so many of their family together.

A great retirement celebration was held at the Wevertown Calvary Bible Church Dec. 27 for Rev. Wayne and Carol Schoonmaker. They have been leading the church for more than 30 years. God bless them both as they begin a new journey.

Arlene Ordway had knee surgery Dec. 31.

Happy Birthday to Katie Kramar, Noreen Bennett, Brendon Warner, Thomas Blake, David Cleveland, Barbara O’Dell, Orlando Conlon, Laura Allen, Sterling Allen, Taylor Ordway, MaKayla Denno, Nathan Russell, Amber Conlon, Ben Miller, Bill Conlon.

Enjoy each and every day.

Carol Sherman, her instructor at school, and principal Bruce Tubbs are two people she’s remained in close contact with. She still cuts Tubbs’ hair. Her gratitude goes farther back, as well.

“I am thankful for the veterans,” Yunhui said. “They are what gave me hope. I get to live the American dream and find happiness.”

In addition to Hello Beautiful, Yunhui owns A Cut Above Hairstyles in Ticonderoga.

Ray Smith: “First I would make a snow castle, and then I would build a snow angel.”

Gaby Ofori: “I would go outside and make ten snow angels, and then the next day I would go outside to have a snowball fight with my mom and brother.”

Solfia Hodgson: “I would make a snowman, and the next day I would make a snow castle.”

Ryan Fink: “I would make a snowman. I would go snowboarding.”

Norah Caselli: “I would build a snowman and throw snowballs at the snowman. I would go skiing and tubing.”

Ryder Olesheski: “I would have snowball fights with my brother. I would make a snow fort. I would make a snowman.”

Venessa Donohue: “I would make a snowman and make ladders to slide down it. I would make one for my sister, too.

We would make snowballs and throw them at the snowman.”

Aalijah McNeil: “I would have a snowball fight. I would build a snowman.”

TRAVELING LESSONS 6+1=7 5+2=7 Jan Nickerson > Columnist 4+3=7 slvrgljan@gmail.com his is not new information. We learned addition in elementary school. My point is that there is more than one way to reach the answer. The ways are different, but they all reach the desired end. I believe that this principle applies to life, as well.

During the past three months I did some traveling. I figure that I spent time in five airports, boarded twelve planes and shared space with a dozen seat-mates. Being away from home for four weeks afforded ample opportunity to observe how others do things.

My conclusion is that although we are all different, and we have different methods of reaching our goal – i.e., how we celebrate Thanksgiving or Christmas – we are alike in our desire to be surrounded by the love of family and good friends, and we’ll travel as far as necessary to make that wish a reality.

During my visits to Texas and England I was exposed to some different foods (pomegranates, curry, fresh beets and leeks). I have been in a rut. I tend to buy the same products over and over. One of my New Year’s resolutions is to be more flexible and try new things.

And what I will take away from my travels is the realization that “My way or the highway” doesn’t work. There’s more than one way. No matter how old we are, we can learn from others.

T

he annual holiday luncheon for Johnsburg Historical Society was celebrated Monday, Dec. 14, at Inn on Gore Restaurant in North Creek. The occasion included election of officers and board members and a special recognition of Doris Patton, former Johnsburg Town Historian.

JHS has the privilege of selecting Doris Patton as an honorary member of JHS for her outstanding service in preserving the history of the Town of Johnsburg. Doris was a close friend of Lewis Waddell who originally was the best source of our historical information.

Over the years he gave his voluminous handwritten notes to Doris, who entered the data onto her computer. She was Town Historian for 20 years, from 1998–2008. When she retired, she passed these valuable files to Jo Ann Smith, the present Town Historian.

It is because of Doris and her dedication, thoroughness and professionalism that we are able to remember today some of the rich history of the Town of Johnsburg.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT he human population continues to expand, not as rapidly as during the Twentieth Century, but Wes Dingman > Columnist still rapidly enough to generate cwdingman@frontiernet.net significant concern about how we’ll feed, not only the more than 9 billion of us expected by 2050, but also our billions of pets and domestic livestock, as well.

Aggravating the situation is the current depletion of fertile soil, secondary to the intensive growing of grains for animal feed and alcohol, the depletion and degradation of water supplies resulting from large irrigation projects and pollution and the loss of sustainability in some important fish stocks decimated by overfishing.

Coming to our rescue is an organism loathed by many and seemingly cherished only by bats, birds, fish and frogs. The lowly fly, among other insect candidates, is about to offer us juicy, nutrientrich fly larvae, otherwise known as maggots, which have long been raised for fish bait and, more rarely, for their ability to effectively clean pus from open wounds and speed healing. But now, with the help of creative and entrepreneurial folks in Great Britain, South Africa and the U.S., maggots are being raised to make food for fish, pigs and chickens. These succulent fellows can be grown rapidly on manure, on the offal of slaughtered livestock, on leftover food or other bio-wastes. The caloric efficiency of insects converting organic waste into food is greater than that of any of our domestic animals. For example: chickens, currently our most efficient converter of feed to meat, require 2.5 pounds of food to produce one pound of meat, while beef cattle require four times as much food to accomplish this. Crickets, however, require only 1.7 pounds of waste to produce a pound of food for fish or livestock. Furthermore, insects can be raised in huge numbers very rapidly in a very small space. Currently, these maggots are dried and powdered before being fed to chickens or other domestic livestock. Foods made from such insects may be deficient in calcium and a couple of essential amino acids, but these nutrients are easy and inexpensive to add to the feed produced.

There are other major benefits to raising insects, instead of grains, for food: There would less need for intensive spraying with potentially toxic herbicides and pesticides and less pressure to create genetically modified grains. On an acre of land, one can raise 800 pounds of soybeans, while that same amount of land could produce 60 tons of insect meal and, at the same time, dispose of many tons of organic waste. Less livestock raising would mean less atmosphere-warming methane emitted and less use of antibiotics and hormones in our foods. Furthermore, fertile land now used to raise livestock or their feed could be left fallow to rejuvenate the soil or converted to raising fruits and vegetables, protecting watersheds or afforestation. More forested land would mean increased production of clean air and fresh water and the removal of more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

AgriProtein technologies, a company in South Africa, is ramping up production of insect feed for livestock, while EnviroFlight in Ohio is raising maggots for pet and zoo animal feed. They are also seeking U.S. regulatory approval for the use of maggots in feeds used to raise fish and livestock grown for human consumption. If it obtains such approval, it will be one step closer to achieving approval for insect products in human foods. Who knows, before long many more of us may be joining the approximately two billion humans who currently consume insects as part of their diet.

Bon appétit!

he New Year has begun, resolutions have been made and now we need only to find the resolve to see them through. In the North Country, this task is easier than you’d think.

Opportunities abound — even if you have lived in the area for years, there are always new people to meet, new places to see, more events to attend for the first time. And there is always a chance that one of these new experiences will end up helping you on your own personal journey. Take a look at some of the notable events happening around the region this week: if any strike your fancy, venture out, put your shoulder to the wheel and revel in what is new.

Discover new passions On Jan. 9, the Adirondack Mountain Club will celebrate Winter Trails Day with their 3rd annual Winterfest. Winter Trails Day is a nationwide initiative that aims to provide children and adults

Uncover new favorites Caffè Lena, Saratoga’s historic folk music mecca, will welcome the Philadelphia-based group Beaucoup Blue on Jan. 10. The music of Beaucoup Blue offers a hearty mix of folk, jazz, country and bluegrass. David and Adrian Mowry, the father and son duo that created Beaucoup, have been popular with the Caffè Lena crowd since the early 2000s. This time around, the duo will be accompanied by jazz/classical bassist Bill Zinno and Toronto drummer Jeff Sheard. Doors open at 6:30 p.m., Beaucoup Blue takes the stage at 7 p.m. Advance tickets are $20.

The indie rock group Daisycutter will perform at Stony Creek�s Town Hall on Jan. 8. The band is fronted by singer Sara Milonovich, whose career has been incredibly diverse. In the past, Milonovich has worked as an accompanist and collaborator with such artists as Richard Shindell, Pete Seeger, Eliza Gilkyson, Jim Gaudet and the Railroad Boys and Mountain Quickstep, among others. In 2011, Sara toured Kosovo, Bulgaria, Moldova, and Turkey as part of The Rhythm Road: American Music Abroad. The band also features multiinstrumentalist Andy Goessling on mandolin, banjo, and dobro, Greg Anderson on guitar, Leo Traversa on bass, and Ben Wittman on drums. The show starts at 7 p.m. and is free and open to all ages.

As part of the January Jams series, the Upper Jay Art Center — in Upper Jay, naturally — will host an open mic night on Jan. 10. The stage will be open to all

skill levels. 2-6 p.m. Admission is free.

On Jan. 7, the Glens Falls Civic Center will host legendary comic Gilbert Gottfried. Gottfried first gained popularity as a cast member on Saturday Night Live. Show starts at 8 p.m. Tickets range from $27-32. For more information, call 1-855-GFCC-TIX. Whether your goal for 2016 is to get more organized, to exercise more, or to simply make it through the year, I hope that in your quest for self-betterment you are able to find time to enjoy the everyday things. A song, a photo… a nice pair of skis.

Sometimes that’s the most difficult thing to do.

But in the end, I would argue that it’s the most rewarding.

THE LARGEST SOURCE OF COMMUNITY EVENTS IN THE NORTH

Explore This month, Plattsburgh’s Strand Center for the Arts will display a special series of photographs by Penelope Clute.

Penelope Clute, known locally as Penny, wasn’t always a photographer. If you’re a Plattsburgh native, you might remember her as one of the founding partners of Clute, Clute & Thompson. Or perhaps you recall her tenure as the Clinton County District Attorney from 1989 to 2001 – or more recently, as a city court judge from 2002 to 2011.

In 2012, Clute retired from law and began nurturing her inner artist. After taking a weekend photography course in the Adirondacks, taught by the late Nancy Rotenberg, she began her creative journey.

The exhibition, titled “Explorations,” features over 30 photographs that capture pieces of that creative journey. With shots from San Miguel de Allende in Mexico, New Zealand, Cuba and various US and Canadian locations, this collection truly portrays discovery seen through an artist’s lens. A portion of the exhibit, “Exploring Water,” pays close attention to colors and textures, while another, “Exploring Cuba,” turns its focus from nature to humanity and architecture. Explorations is diverse, it’s refreshing; yet it still manages to convey a feeling of familiarity through the intimacy of the photographs.

The opening reception for this exhibit will be held on Jan. 8 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. and is free and open to the public.

with the opportunity to try a variety of winter sports for free. This year, the Adirondack Mountain Club will provide classes on snowshoeing, dog sledding, skating, skiing and more. Inperson registration for Winterfest will be available at 9 a.m. at the High Peaks Information Center in Lake Placid. For more information, call 518-523-3441 or preregister online at adk.org Saranac Lake’s BluSeed Studios will host an introduction to oil painting workshop this month.

The classes, taught by award-winning painter Nancy Brossard, are open to all skill levels. The workshop is split into three parts, with classes on Jan. 12, 19 and 26 at 5:30 p.m. The $150 registration fee includes instruction, paint and canvas boards. Participants are encouraged to bring brushes of their preference. Call 518-891-3799 to register.

Join the staff at TiNY Wellness Center in Ticonderoga for a free fit camp session. The TiNY Wellness Center offers a free class every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. The next fit camp is on Jan. 8 from 6-7 a.m.

Culvert repair From page 1

Conservation and things moved pretty quickly from there.

DEC Region Five spokesman David Winchell said, “Warren County Soil and Water Conservation District and the Army Corps of Engineers have been working with the town of Johnsburg Highway Department to determine how to address a deteriorating culvert under Glen Creek Road,” when asked of recent progress.

“Within a couple days Stec saved us $300,000,” said Hitchcock of Stec’s involvement.

Stec, though, credited the collaborative effort of all agencies.

“They didn’t get a different answer because I called, it’s because they took a second look. In my experience, the state has always been very accommodating,” he said.

Without knowledge of the exact reasons the second look enabled a new option for the repair, Stec said, “In this case there may have been a miscommunication. It sounds like this was a unique circumstance. Not every call is going to change the outcome, but if we see something that doesn’t make sense, we can ask, �Why can’t we try that?’”

Stec said Johnsburg’s situation is exactly why he conducts such town hall meetings.

“You’ve got to keep your finger on the he pulse of what’s going on. I was a town supervisor. I know what it’s like,” he said. The public forum, as well as talking oneon-one with residents, helps him keep his finger on that pulse.

“If you show up, you might ask questions that you may not have thought to ask.”

As far as the savings in Johnsburg, he said, “That’s a lot of money in any town.”

Hitchcock said he is now working with DEC to get plans approved and is hopeful the work can begin in the spring.

Tannery Pond Community Center to screen “A Place at the Table”

By Mike Corey

news@suncommunitynews.com

NORTH CREEK — Approximately 50 million people in the U.S., including one in four children, don’t know where their next meal is coming from.

The 2012 documentary film “A Place at the Table” tells the stories of three such Americans, all of whom maintain their dignity as they struggle to survive.

The film shows us how hunger has serious economic, social, and cultural implications for the U.S. and how it can be solved.

Sponsored by the Adirondack Community Outreach Center (ACOC) in conjunction with the Bridges to Nutrition consortium of Glens Falls, the film will be shown at the Tannery Pond Community Center in North Creek on Saturday, Jan. 16 at 7 p.m. A $5 donation at the door is suggested, with funds going towards the Town of Johnsburg Food Pantry, which serves about 20 percent of the town’s population.

The outreach provides emergency food to families in need and also oversees the Backpack Program, which supplies food to the town’s neediest children on weekends. The ACOC recently distributed 145 holiday baskets this season.

All are welcome to attend this important and action-provoking film.

A discussion and reception will follow.

Winter is here TheÊ onlyÊ questionÊ is:Ê ForÊ howÊ longÊ ?Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê First snow

T

he season’s first �utilitarian snow finally arrived in the North Country, just in time for the New Year’s celebration. Although a wide, white carpet has been put down, the snow cover is still quite sparse and the base is quite limited.

While the fresh snow will prove to be a boon for the local alpine ski centers, the storm also delivered enough of a base for the backcountry ski season to begin.

Although the current snowpack is still rather limited in the heavily forested woods, there is enough snow for country skiers to get out on the local golf courses, and on many of the Fire Truck trails in and around the High Peaks and in the St. Regis Canoe Area. Skiers have been out on the Hayes Brook/ Slush Pond Trails, the Fish Pond Truck Trail, and on many of the adjoining the trail systems.

Travelers should avoid the lakes and ponds, as the ice has not set up yet, and with the recent temperatures, it may not.

While there is a powder surface in most areas, there remains a significant crust left over from the recent freezing rain, which can make traveling off trail rather unpleasant.

Angling outlaws Following the NYSDEC’s successful efforts to reintroduce/ restore landlocked Atlantic salmon into Lake Champlain and the rivers and streams that flow into the Big Lake, salmon have returned to many of the historic rivers and streams that they had once occupied, including the Saranac, the Boquet and over a dozen other tributaries. In fact, the salmon run that occurs on the Saranac River in the City of Plattsburgh is unique, as it hosts one of very few salmon runs in a river that flows through a major city.

Unfortunately, there are bound to be some problems among the urban anglers. Even though the vast majority of anglers practice their craft within the limits of NYS fishing regulations, and according to “Fair Chase” standards; there will always be a few outlaws. Fortunately, they are eventually

caught, as they have been in the past while snatching or snagging spawning walleyes on the Saranac River.

More recently, NYSDEC officers reported a similar incident that had occurred when they witnessed snaggers taking salmon on the Saranac River in Plattsburgh.

According to the DEC press release, ECOs arrested 38-yearold Joshua Todd and 34-year-old Christopher J. Dumas, both of Plattsburgh, N.Y., on Tuesday, December 15, 2015. The two men allegedly used an illegal fishing technique known as “snagging” to poach the fish. It involves dragging a weighted hook through the water until it gets embedded into the body of the fish. The men are charged with taking fish by means other than angling and Mr. Dumas is also charged with fishing without a license.

Legendary flyfisherman, Lee Wulff, who championed the catch and release conservation philosophy among anglers, claimed “Snagging is an unclean disease!” In this case, I hope the local court system makes a concerted effort to eradicate the unpleasant disease by making an example of these outlaws.

While the open water angling season is rapidly coming to an end, and lake ice has been slow to show; outdoor enthusiasts still have a variety of recreational outlets available in the local woods. Although the recent snow-cover has likely shut down the “shed hunting” season, the snow will provide hunters with an opportunity for some snowshoe hare or ruffed grouse.

To date, the poor snowshoe rabbits, (aka varying hare) have been the most unfortunate creatures in the forest, as their fur changed to a bright white phase over a month ago. Their natural white winter phase does not offer much camouflage when there is no snow in the woods. Although they stick out like a sore thumb in the snowless surroundings, they don’t seem to realize they are so obvious. While walking through the swamps during the recent big game season, I discovered hares hiding in the hummocks of the swamp that were almost underfoot. They would have been invisible with the usual snow cover, but their cover was blown with the brown and green background.

While snowshoe hare will be difficult to find with the current snow cover, the opportunities for ruffed grouse, aka partridge, will vastly improve; as snow cover reveals their tracks and travels, and highlights their silhouette in the balsams.

It has been an excellent grouse season to date, and the local population appears to be peaking. It was difficult to still-hunt the local woods during the recent Big Game Season without putting up at least a dozen birds. While it’s always been easy to sneak up on grouse when you’ve got a deer rifle in hand; deer will be everywhere when you’re carrying a shotgun loaded with birdshot. It’s the hunter’s dilemma! Although there’s always the option of carrying an over/under rifle/shotgun that’s capable of shooting either a cartridge or a shot shell; a hunter must still make the instant decision of which barrel to use, which can be a difficult task when confronted with the sight or sound of game fleeing the scene.

also some leftover Basswood (Tilia spp.) that a friend gave me and I was cutting that up for campfire wood.

I tend to get caught up in Rich Redman > Outdoor Columnist rich@suncommunitynews.com cutting wood and I marvel at what a tree is, a large woody plant that has taken 20, 30, 40, 50 or more years to grow to get to this size. Working in the woods is like working in a large garden. You manage your plants.

You weed out the poor ones, nurture the good and harvest them when mature.

I’ve received a number of letters regarding week’s column which detailed ongoing efforts to allow the use of Big Bore air-rifles during the annual Big Game Hunting Season. The column prompted one incredulous reader to complain, “Isn’t it a bit too early to publish an April Fools story? Air rifles for hunting deer, and bear; that’s a good one.”

Fortunately, it’s not a joke. Modern day Air Rifles have the capacity to handle just about any type of Big Game animal that can legally be hunted. In fact, many �off the shelf ’ air rifles provide significantly more knock down power than muzzleloaders, and they are available in semi-automatic and lever action models.

While the rifles are not silent, they are considerably more quite than traditional firearms. The �crack’ of a rifle shot is the result of the bullet breaking the sound barrier as it leaves a rifle’s muzzle. The report is actually a small sonic boom.

Several readers voiced their concerns regarding �yet another special hunting season’. “Air guns?”, one asked, “what comes next, Pea-Shooters?”

As I understand the current initiative, Air Guns will not have a specific hunting season, as is currently available for both archery and blackpowder.

The use of crossbows which have been approved, was incorporated into the Regular Big Game Hunting Season. I would expect, if a proposal is eventually drafted and approved, Air Guns would likely be allowed during the Regular Big Game Season.

It is unfortunate that some sportsmen, and women have taken such a stubborn, proprietary stance on their preferred method of hunting. Hunting is an activity that’s defined by the harvest. Humans have been on the hunt since they first learned to walk upright.

In fact, the oldest hunting technique known to man was the �persistence hunt’ in which hunters actually ran the game down to the point of exhaustion. Although the practice is likely still utilized in some parts of the world, I expect motor vehicles now provide the �persistence’ element of the hunt.

Elsewhere in this country, big game hunters have utilized an array of truly primitive weapons such as slingshots, spears, Atlatl’s and blowguns. Air guns would be far more efficient and humane compared to such standards.

It would be a shame if the NYSDEC’s Pubic Comment period, which is intended to solicit and evaluate public opinion regarding the use of air rifles during the Big Game Hunting Season; turns into a public squabble similar to the nasty mess that occurred during the squabble over the use of crossbows.

The hunting fraternity cannot afford to fight among themselves over what particular type of hunting tool is used, as long as the participants hunt within the framework of fair chase standards.

In reality, hunters using Air Guns will have no distinct advantage over hunters that prefer to use regular firearms, muzzleloaders or crossbows.

The use of Air Guns is currently allowed for many small game species including squirrels, rabbits, hares, ruffed grouse, and furbearers such as raccoons and coyotes. Under the General Regulations, Air guns may not be used to hunt waterfowl, pheasant, wild turkey, or big game.

The proposed regulations regarding the use of Big Bore Air Rifles can be found online at http://www.dec.ny.gov/regulations/34113.html#p1s1803 Joe Hackett is a guide and sportsman residing in Ray Brook.

leadership, as well as his political connections, has paid dividends for the county, particularly when it comes to locking in grant funding.

With Tropical Storm Irene recovery efforts mostly in the rearview, said Ferebee, top priorities for the county in 2016 include addressing the four bridges flagged by the state as needing repair, renovating the senior nutrition kitchen and facilitating the merger of the county’s office for the aging into the public health department.

Ferebee said he was pleased with the trajectory of the county.

“This is a renewal of renaissance happening in Essex County,” Ferebee said.

Preston, too, was sworn in for his first full term as the board’s second-in-command.

Moore, who sponsored Preston’s bid for a second term, hailed his colleague for his work on numerous regional issues, including what many are now calling a full-blown crisis when it comes to the sustainability of local emergency response squads.

officer and $23,394.28 for the chairman.

Supervisors also receive a salary from their towns.

STAYING THE COURSE Chairman Bill Ferebee (R-Keene) was re-elected to lead the body, his first full one-year term since taking office last June following the resignation of Randall Douglas, the long-running Jay supervisor who signed off to take a state job.

Vice Chair Randy Preston (I-Wilmington) said Ferebee’s “slow and steady” approach to

While most lawmakers pride themselves on being non-partisan, the new session will see a noted shift in the board when it comes to party affiliation.

With the departure of former supervisor Dan Connell (D-Westport), the number of Democrats has dropped to three — Republicans have held steady at 12 — while independents have risen to three, including two of the so-called Big Three towns, North Elba and Ticonderoga.

Giordano, a registered Republican, ran as an independent write-in candidate, defeating incumbent supervisor Bill Grinnell, also a Republican. On Monday, the lawmaker said he remains undecided as to how he will serve when it comes to party affiliation.

The supervisor said he was looking forward to tackling his committee assignments — he’s been assigned to human services, personnel and finance — and addressing town issues, including bringing the town’s water infrastructure back into compliance.

“This is a long, ongoing discussion that needs to be resolved,” Giordano said.

His new colleagues expressed similar sentiments.

“It’s time to get to work,” said Tyler.

Miga agreed: “It’s public service,” he said.

The new lawmakers will return to Elizabethtown on Friday to receive briefings by the heads of each department.

Numerous other lawmakers and county officials were also sworn in for new terms on Monday, including Palmer, the county manager; County Attorney Dan Manning, Clerk to the Supervisor Judy Garrison, Deputy Clerk Dina Garvey, Purchasing Agent Linda Wolf, Auditor Brenda Sullivan, County Clerk Joseph Provoncha and County Judge Richard Meyer, who won re-election for a second ten-year term last fall.
