Stec blasts budget process

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

QUEENSBURY — State legislators are patting themselves on the back this week for passing a sixth on-time budget.

But Assemblyman Dan Stec (R-114th-Queensbury) is hopping mad about the process.

The state constitution requires lawmakers to allow three days to pass from the time a bill is introduced to when it comes up for a vote.

The so-called “message of necessity” mechanism allows lawmakers to skirt the process in the event of an emergency.

Stec, a Republican, scorched the Democratic-led Assembly for invoking the policy for a fourth consecutive year.

“They’re getting more daring in their use of it,” Stec said.

“It’s intent is for emergency legislation, not, �Oh, we’re surprised April 1 is here!’”

The mechanism was invoked as the budget deadline ap>> See STEC | pg. 14

20 injured after Minerva bus rollover Driver ticketed for failure to reduce speed

By Christina Scanlon

christina@suncommunitynews.com

MINERVA — Students from SUNY Maritime are recovering from injuries sustained when a commercial bus they were riding in overturned and rolled down and embankment on state Route 28N in Minerva Monday morning.

An investigation attributed the cause to unsafe speed.

In all, 20 people were treated for injuries, state police said.

Four were transported from the scene to Glens Fall Hospital for treatment of non-life threatening injuries.

The remaining passengers were transported by school bus

to Minerva Central School for temporary shelter. Another 16 of those passengers were later transported to Glens Falls Hospital and treated for minor injuries.

The group was traveling after attending a leadership retreat in Newcomb. They were retuning to the Bronx via the bus operated by W&D Tours, of Brooklyn.

Driver Rong Yu Wong, 39, was ticketed for failure to reduce speed for conditions.

Police said the bus was headed south when it toppled over the guardrail, rolled down an embankment, and came to rest on its roof against a tree.

In addition to 36 students, other occupants included the driver and two staff members.

Police were assisted at the scene by Minerva, Johnsburg, Indian Lake, Newcomb and North Warren rescue squads.

Essex County takes beating on low gas prices Sales, motor fuel, occupancy taxes all plummet this winter

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

ELIZABETHTOWN — Essex County has taken a beating on low gas prices.

Last year, taxes generated from the sale of motor oil fuels in Essex County was down $756,586 over 2014, a decrease of 26 percent.

“We got killed because of motor vehicles,” Essex County Treasurer Mike Diskin told the Essex County Board of Supervisors last week.

The trend of cheap gas shows no sign of abating, said the New York Association of Counties (NYSAC).

While gas prices are again on the uptick, the U.S. Energy

Information Administration projected the average price per gallon this year will still be about 22 percent less than it was in 2015, NYSAC said last week.

State taxes on gas is capped at 8 percent; Essex County’s share is 4 percent.

The total impact on total county sales tax collections from the trend remains unclear, NYSAC said.

Each year, Essex County pencils in anticipated revenues from sales tax into the budget.

About $28.5 million was projected in for this fiscal year.

The county came in at $27.6 million, falling about $889,000 short of that goal.

“It’s the first year in quite a long time this happened,” Diskin said.

Diskin noted once motor fuels tax was removed, the county was actually 2.7 percent ahead for all other taxes generated.

And despite weak January and February figures, the county’s sale tax collections were only 0.3 percent lower — about $96,000 — than the previous January through December pe-

riod, the treasurer said.

Occupancy tax numbers also began dropping off in December, down 18 percent over 2014, and continued in January, down 9.8 percent.

“It’s probably attributed more to weather than anything,” Diskin said. “It was 68 degrees the day before Christmas.”

Despite the gloomy trends, Essex County will have a new revenue stream this year as a result of the new 3 percent tax on vacation rental units, which went into effect on Jan. 1.

Diskin said it will be hard to compare last year’s February and March occupancy tax numbers because of the influx of new businesses, which county officials conservatively estimated at 500 units last spring.

The treasurer’s office is processing new registration forms daily, Diskin said.

“There’s a little confusion on how they report it,” Diskin said. “It’s going to be a little bumpy for a while.”

The new tax is projected to bring in at least $250,000 per year, tourism officials have said.

Local takes first in screenwriting competition North Country Ministry serves many organizations through benefit QUEENSBURY — With their wide range of programs all showing increases in service, North Country Ministry is raising hopes as well as funds during its upcoming spring gals.

“Spotlight on Broadway” will take place Friday, April 29, at the Hiland Park Country Club. Tickets are available that include a live auction featuring auctioneer Martin Seelye as well as a silent auction, raffles, and in keeping with the theme, performances of favorite Broadway show tunes.

Proceeds of the fundraiser will benefit North Country Ministry’s ongoing services which operate out of the organization’s two centers in North Creek and Warrensburg. Among the programs North Country Ministry provides is its Emergency Assistance Fund which goes hand-in-hand with caseworker advocacy and referral services. “We are committed to addressing each client’s needs with respect for their unique situation, said Judy Carr, executive director.

Advocacy is when North Country Ministry’s representative contacts and speaks on behalf of a client to other organizations or programs which ma benefit the client. Referral occurs when the client is directed to apply for assistance of some form under an outside program.

“Advocacy is not always a quick process, but it is an effective way to assist individuals and families,” said Rebecca Bammert. “Through advocacy, we address the root of the problem, combining emergency assistance to sometimes address the immediate need while identifying programs the client may be eligible for and helping them to get set up with those programs to have a better outcome in the long run.”

North Country Ministry’s Emergency Assistance Fund provides limited but financial aid to try to stem the long-term effects of an immediate financial crisis. “Someone is employed and their car breaks down for example,” said Carr. “If they cannot afford to repair the car, they will be at risk of losing their job due to lack of transportation. If that happens, the client and the client’s family if there are dependents, could easily lose the ability to be self-sufficient long-term. Our emergency assistance is designed to try to support people as they navigate an immediate crisis and get them back to their usual way of life.”

In addition to the above services, they also runs a food pantry with health insurance and SNAP advisors on hand when the pantry is open. The organization has a Baby’s Place program which provides clothing, diapers and other infant items to families in need and is supplemented by both a play group and a grant-funded program to provide new infant and child car seats to those who qualify. There is a Family Clothing Center, the Gathering Place weekly community meal, affordable efficiency apartments for adults, and the Furniture Barn.

LONG LAKE — Jamie Sutliff, a writer and artist won first place for Best Feature Screenplay for “The Ghost and the Gold Louis” at the Utah Film Awards in Orem, Utah, Friday, March 25. The Utah Film Awards recognizes outstanding achievement in film, series and commercials and is now in it’s fifth year. Submissions hailed from Australia, Uganda and other locations throughout the United States. Festival Director, Warren Workman, confirmed there were 315 submissions for a total of 47 awards given out. Jamie competed with 53 other scripts to take first place.

“The Ghost and the Gold Louis” is an historical paranormal adventure following a young girls discovery of her greatgrandmother’s ghost. The ghost of Evangeline is fiercely strong, determined and able to manipulate events to right the wrongs of her past life as a slave. She leads her grand-daughter on the hunt for the gold Louis coins missing for two-centuries, so valuable, that their re-discovery will save the family business. This fast-paced engaging, action adventure is set in New Orleans and is woven through historical events. The story combines elements of filmmaking, special effects and storytelling that Sutliff would love to see hit the big screen.

Sutliff traveled to the Utah Film Awards via the generosity of Long Lake community members who raised funds to offset the cost of his travel. Sutliff ’s award will be on display and remain permanently at the C.V. Whitney Long Lake Public Library as gift to the community of Long Lake, N.Y. Jamie Sutliff has turned a number of his stories into awardwinning screenplays, including The Devil Wind, which won a Laurel Leaf for best screenplay at Hollywood’s Independent Film Festival; Yah-Ko, which won the Silver Award at the International Independent Film Awards; and Antidote Man, a semifinalist at the Hollywood Circus Road Film Festival.

Jamie Sutliff ’s written work includes seven novels including The Elves of Loch Fada Land of the Nen-Us-Yok, Snowflakes in a Clear Night Sky, Antidote Man, The Sphere of Visions, Yah-Ko, and Elves of Owl’s Head Mountain.

The adapted novel is scheduled for release Friday, May 6, and will be available regionally at ADK Trading Post, Long Lake, Hoss’s Country Corner, Long Lake, The Bookstore Plus, Lake Placid, National and international venues, including Barnes & Noble B&N UK, Amazon, Amazon UK , EUR.

North Creek Rotary announces doubling of scholarships for 2016

By Bill Quinlivan

news@suncommunitynews.com

NORTH CREEK — Traditionally, the North Creek Rotary Club awards three scholarships of $500 each to a deserving graduate of each of three area schools, Indian Lake, Johnsburg and Minerva.

This year, due to the membership of the North Creek Rotary’s support of the Rotary International Foundation, the club was able to attain a matching grant from the foundation to make it possible for the club to make $3,000 in scholarships available.

“For many years, the North Creek Rotary Club has provided a $500 scholarship to an outstanding student of each of the three schools in our area, Johnsburg, Minerva, and Indian

Lake Central Schools. Students may contact the guidance counselor at their individual school to learn the particulars of the application and review process,” said North Creek Rotary President, Robin De Armas.

“This year, we are proud to announce that we have applied for and received a grant from Rotary International to double the amount of the Scholarship to $1000 for each recipient.

Our award, which rewards leadership as well as scholarship is given to the student we think is the outstanding individual in each senior class who applies for our scholarship,” said De Armas.

De Armas pointed out that the club’s membership is very proud to make these three scholarships available locally and that it was the support of the membership for the Rotary International Foundation that has made it possible to acquire

these extra grant funds. It allows the club to become the conduit to funnel the funds into the local community for the educational benefit of three worthy graduates.

The North Creek Rotary is in the process of informing the guidance counselors for the seniors of the ILCS, MCS and JCS of the availability of the scholarships and criteria to be used in the judging. Interested seniors are to coordinate with their respective guidance counselors regarding the judging criteria, then write a letter to the Scholarship Committee of the North Creek Rotary Club (PO Box 74 North Creek NY 12853) explaining their continued educational ambitions and any other factors that they believe make them worthy for consideration for one of the $1,000 scholarships. The North Creek Rotary will award one of the scholarships at each of the respective school’s graduation ceremonies.

Multi-46er visits Minerva Sleeping Giants

By Mike Corey

news@suncommunitynews.com

MINERVA — At the ripe young age of 73, Matthew Clark of Chestertown has a lot of hiking miles under his belt. He is a hiker and a climber, and has finished “a round” of the 46 High Peaks no fewer than 22 times. A round is a complete a run of all the Adirondack High Peaks, which are the mountains within the Blue Line that are at least 4000’ above sea level.

Clark spoke about his extensive hiking/climbing experiences to the Minerva Sleeping Giants during the Giants’ monthly meeting on March 18 at the Minerva Town Hall. He brought some of his usual hiking clothing and equipment, which included his microspike boots, which he used this past winter to handle the frozen snow hiking he accomplished during this most recent winter round of the 46 peaks (he has

I

four previous winter rounds of the 46). The last peak of his winter mountain ascents was Saddleback, which had, he reported, about five feet of hard-packed snow at and towards the summit. Clark is up to the challenge: he enjoys “…. pitting yourself against the elements – it appeals to me. With 60 mph winds on a cold winter’s day, you have to be prepared.”

On the very day he retired from Luzerne Central School after 29 years of teaching English, Clark hiked to the top of Giant Mountain. The year was 1998. Since then he has continued to hike, not just in the Adirondacks, but throughout the northeastern region of the country. He’s hiked in the Green Mountains of Vermont, the White Mountains of New Hampshire, Vermont’s Long Trail, the Northville-Lake Placid trail, and others. But most of his hiking has involved the High Peaks. He does not hike the mountains with the intention of camping, so he manages all his single and multi-peak hiking during the daylight hours, returning to his trailhead vehicle

n 1972 we purchased our vacation home in Wevertown which we christened “The Farm”. Bill, hailing from Maine, planted potatoes Jan Nickerson > Columnist the first summer. Soon the slvgrljan@gmail.com children were picking off potato bugs and dropping them into jars of kerosene. One summer we had a bumper squash harvest. Farmers we were not!

In 1999 we retired to “the Farm”. Older and wiser, we kept our farming to a minimum.

About ten years ago we got ten fir trees from The Arbor Day Foundation. Bill planted the teeny, tiny trees in various locations.

Only one fir tree made it through the subsequent winters. It is now three feet tall and growing smack in the middle of my flower garden. The flowers have adjusted and come up surrounding it.

A gardening perfectionist would have moved it long ago.

I’m afraid it might not survive transplanting. I’ve actually grown fond of seeing it right where it is and look forward to new light green growth each spring.

To me the little fir tree represents strength and toughness. It is a survivor and could be a role model for the mantra “Bloom where you are planted”.

before dark. He often hikes by himself, but will also hike with others, at least with those who can keep up with him. “I know those mountains fairly well, I believe”, he says.

Clark calls himself a “list climber”. He is constantly keeping lists of trails and mountains he’s hiked, along with total miles of hiking. He estimates his total mileage at 12,000 since he hiked his first High Peak, Mount Marcy, in 1970. As an outdoorsman, Clark is very experienced in the back country, often bushwhacking his way forward without the benefit of a marked trail. It’s what he does, even at 73, and it is part of him.

During his Sleeping Giants presentation, his interest and enthusiasm was evident and greatly appreciated by his audience.

Corruption of power

o what extent are the candidates, the parties, the endorsers and the media willing to go to influence the American electorate in order to achieve their aspirations in the upcoming elections?

To date, election year 2016 has been beyond comprehension, and it seems we are in store for many more unbelievable chapters before this story is complete.

Sadly it’s all part of the posturing for power and influence and we are all guilty of playing along.

With every Twitter message, political rally, news flash, poll, town hall, debate, private meeting, interview, broadcast and threat of suit or criminal charges we are hooked: hook, line and sinker.

For many years a significant portion of our population ignored the elections, not interested in getting sucked into the commotion, but given the state of the economy and the tumultuous world conditions, many are making an exception this year.

With the stakes now reaching a new high as a result of Justice Scalia’s untimely passing many have now come to realize we have three key branches of government hanging in the balance.

At stake is more than just the White House. Key issues of importance to you will all be in play. Issues such as the rising debt, abortion, woman’s rights, climate change, health care, immigration, veterans affairs, gun control, separation of church and state, unions, trade, voting rights, affirmative action, tax reform, military action and terrorist threats, make this an election where every vote could impact your life.

Is it any wonder those vying for power are pulling no punches and stooping to new lows or highs depending on your point of view?

It is possible we will see both conventions contested much to the delight of the nation’s media who in past years have greatly curtailed convention coverage?

In an election that began with the strong possibility of a dynasty race between another Clinton and Bush, instead we’ve seen theater, drama, record crowds, and surprises at every turn. Anything but the same old thing.

So impassioned has the debate gotten that many feel if their candidate isn’t chosen they will stay home. But with so much at stake and passions running so high are we more likely to see a three or four or even five party race all the way into the fall?

Let’s just hope whoever gets there has enough fight left in them to govern the country once they survive the election.

On-time budget comes at what expense?

F

or the sixth year in a row, state leaders have delivered a timely budget.

On Monday, after getting the greenlight from the state legislature, Gov. Andrew Cuomo formally signed two of his most carefullywatched initiatives into law, enacting a statewide $15 minimum wage plan and 12-week paid family leave policy.

While state legislators were familiar with the broad contours of the proposals, details remained scant until the eleventh-hour when the freshly-inked bills sailed across lawmaker desks.

With the April 1 deadline looming, lawmakers were expected to cast their votes within hours on legislation that will undoubtedly transform the private sector.

Bills ordinarily require three days of debate, a requirement embedded in the state constitution.

But a mechanism called the message of necessity allows the governor to force immediate votes on legislation.

That’s what happened last week… and what has happened each year for the past four years.

While vital to the sound operation of our state, passing an on-time budget doesn’t really necessitate Cuomo waving his magic wand — or in this case, pen — invoking his special powers.

Government watchdog groups have described the practice of prioritizing timeliness over policy details as “political theater.”

Assemblyman Dan Stec (R-114th-Queensbury) has also pointed out the

folly of shoving policy through, a process he said keeps pending legislation shielded from lawmakers, the public and the press alike.

We agree.

This isn’t the first time the governor has evoked this executive perk.

You might recall the SAFE Act, the gun control legislation the governor pushed through within weeks of a deadly 2012 mass shooting.

Lawmakers never had a chance. Three years later, details on the controversial policy continue to trickle out.

Gov. Cuomo deserves respect for righting a budget process that has historically been dysfunctional. And it should be noted that his predecessors have used the device far more than he has.

But we also think sweeping changes in state policy, especially when they’re hammered out by three men in a room, is problematic. Perhaps it doesn’t rise to the occasion of mustache-twirling villainy, but certainly is opaque and questionable — especially considering the fetid gutter that constitutes Albany politics.

The New Yorkers who have repeatedly raised concerns about these policies, which are now law, deserve better.

Never Trump

To the Editor: I spent 24 years of service to our country in the USAF. I served for myself, family, and fellow Americans to keep the barbarians at the gates; protecting our freedoms of speech, religion, the press and the pursuit of happiness.

Today, I am exercising freedom of speech to declare to my fellow Republicans that I cannot support Mr. Donald Trump to represent our party in the coming race for president.

My greatest political disappointment was the defeat of Sen. John McCain in the 2008 Presidential election. I was also very disappointed more recently when Mr. Trump disregarded Sen. McCain’s service by implying that he was not a war hero because he was captured by the North Vietnamese.

I realized that Mr. Trump, a man who has not served his country in any way, had no idea of how difficult it must have been during five years of captivity for Sen. McCain to remain a strong patriot who inspired the other captives.

Now that Mr. Trump has talked about leaving NATO and possibly allowing Japan, South Korea, and others to have nuclear weapons, I realize that he also has no idea about how to defend our country.

But it also really bothers me that he has a lack of respect and common courtesy for those who dare to disagree with him. I guess freedom of speech is not a high priority for him, unless of course it is his speech.

For me, our freedoms guaranteed under the Constitution and Bill of Rights are the most precious gift our founding fathers gave to us. Therefore if you choose to use your freedom to vote for Mr. Trump, I respect your right to do so, even if I disagree with you.

But I ask you, would Mr. Trump respect your exercise of such freedom if you did not support him? Or would you be just another person to disparage, call names, and crudely verbally attack, like Senator Rubio, former Governor Jeb Bush, Senator Cruz and so many women that I have lost count.

Exercise your right to vote as I will; but I will never vote for Mr. Trump, even if it means another Democrat in the White House.

Yes, I believe they will preserve our freedoms better than Mr. Trump will.

Elizabethtown voters lack privacy

To the Editor: On Election Day, residents of Elizabethtown do not have privacy when filling out their ballots. The privacy of the voting booth, which voters in other towns have, is not available to voters in Elizabethtown, the County Seat.

Elizabethtown citizens vote in the town hall meeting room, which is too small to hold the standard, curtained voting booths. These curtained booths offer both privacy and prevent voters from being distracted by lines of people at the inspector’s tables.

Instead, in Elizabethtown, there are two small tables, side by side, near the back door. As people fill out their ballots, the public enters and exits through the door. Low plastic walls (chest high) on three sides separate these two polling spaces.

When a voter finishes filling in the ballot at one table, they must walk behind the voter who is still filling out their ballot at the next table. Ballots being filled out are visible to other people.

In addition, the low partitions expose the person voting to the line of people waiting to sign in. This voting in an open room, without privacy curtains, can make a voter feel conspicuous, rushed and distracted by others who are talking to the inspectors, and friends.

All voters should be able to vote behind a privacy curtain. 800 people are registered to vote in Elizabethtown, and over 500 show up regularly to cast their ballots. The lack of space and the resulting lack of privacy make it imperative that the Board of Elections relocate the voting place to a larger location in Elizabethtown.

There are other places in Elizabethtown big enough to accommodate the curtained voting booths.

Two possible locations are the Elizabethtown-Lewis Central School or the Elizabethtown Fire Hall. A public school is used in Ticonderoga and a fire hall is used Crown Point, so there should be no problem moving the polling place to one of these larger locations for the up coming elections.

If you want the same privacy, which is provided to other voters in other towns, call the Board of Elections at 873-3476 or 873-3478 and let them know how you feel.

Sage rhetoric cowardly, hateful

Thank you from the WPTSO

To the Editor: I read with disgust the accusations of an elected official of a neighboring community that the state police harassed, intimidated and or entrapped participants of the annual Schroon Lake Ice Fishing Derby.

This is typical hateful rhetoric from another cowardly elected official who hates the police, and who has no clue what is going on in the real world.

Instead of thanking the police for removing two more drunken imbeciles — who made the irresponsible decision to get in their vehicles after getting drunk and thought it was okay to drive — from our roads, this town board member decided it was more constructive to accuse the troopers, (who put their lives on the line every day), of egregious behavior, simply outrageous, especially coming from an elected official.

I hope the good people of Schroon Lake give this guy the boot next time he comes up for reelection because quite frankly, having that mentality from an elected official in a neighboring community is scary.

How many other officials think like this? Did the community voice outrage at his accusations? Who ever voted for this joker should think again next time around.

There are enough cop-haters in the world — we surely do not need to have them in office where they can really do damage. Maybe the people who were arrested are friends of Sage and he is speaking out in their defence. Maybe that should be looked into (Just saying!)

Thanks to the troopers who protect us every single day of the year. I am sure there are more of us who stick up for the troopers than those who are haters and left-wing radicals. When a police officer screws up, they are dealt with as they should be, what Sage accuses the cops of comes out of pure radical left wing hatred.

Trump, a national obsession To the Editor: Donald Trump? There’s almost nothing else people want to talk about these days. Where’s this national obsession taking us?

People love the guy because he’s “not establishment.” Last week a writer enthused that he was the first such candidate in U.S. history. I don’t know where that leaves men such as Washington, Jackson, Lincoln, Perot or Debs. Are Ted Cruz, Rand Paul and Bernie Sanders “establishment”, too?

Anyway, when Trump talks he sounds just like the rest of us, right? Or maybe the guy on the bar stool next to us just before the 2 a.m. call. But does that mean we want a president who curses, mocks and stammers disjointed, incomplete sentences in his public pronouncements?

Well, Trump embodies and channels our collective anger, doesn’t he?

I don’t know about you, but I seldom make my best decisions in anger.

It’s hard to believe that Trump is really the conservative he says he is, or even a Republican, since he’s never been one before now.

But, I admit, people can change. It’s just that he seems to be campaigning against the things he spent his life doing. If you close your eyes, it’s almost like he’s campaigning against himself.

And Mr. Trump, when you’re waving your “family” Bible at the crowds, couldn’t you please at least get one that doesn’t look like it’s still in the cellophane wrapper?

Last time I looked, it’s not just angry men who vote. If half of Republican women are going to refuse to vote for Trump (as a recent poll shows), because of the way he speaks about women, incites his supporters to violence, laughs at the lame, and ridicules decent people; then is it going to be possible for him to carry even a single state in November?

I can’t think of a better way to roll out the red carpet for President Hillary Clinton, who is otherwise the most beatable candidate in decades.

They say Hillary might even be indicted before the election. But Mr. Trump goes her one better. He already has a trial date set for committing fraud with “Trump University.” It’s scheduled to begin right after the primaries end. Perfect timing.

Trump is like a pied piper, leading us toward an election debacle that’ll likely cause the Republican Party to lose the senate and perhaps the house, too, and eventually lead to a Supreme Court almost entirely absent of constitutionalists.

I believe Trump’s nomination will spell the end of the Republican Party, which ultimately might be a good thing, assuming the Republic can survive long enough to weather the changing of the guard.

Maybe we need to think this through a little more carefully.

Keep the arts alive To the Editor: I am the Arts Grant Coordinator for the Adirondack Quad-County Decentralization Grant Program administered by the Arts Center in Blue Mountain Lake and made possible through the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Gov. Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature.

I want to thank all of the organizations and artists who applied for the 2016 Decentralization Grant from Essex County. The Arts Center was able to award over $28,000 to 14 projects in Essex County for this granting cycle.

For a full list of the projects awarded, please visit our website at adirondackarts.org.

Please feel free to email me any time throughout the year with questions about fundable projects or for more information on the granting process at kathy@adirondackarts.org.

I’d also like to thank the Essex County Board of Supervisors for allowing me to acknowledge the program and recipients at a recent board meeting in Elizabethtown.

I’m looking forward to working with you all again on 2017 arts projects.

Keep the arts alive!

Fear of violent refugees “unrealistic” To the Editor: Regarding Bill Bendel’s letter, “Taking in refugees: Politically correct or just naive?”

Bill Bendel’s criticism of the Sun Community News Editorial Board’s editorial (“Taking in refugees will be good for the Adirondack Park”) is so far removed from reality, it would be more appropriate for The Onion.

In fact, his allegation about Dearborn, Michigan adopting Sharia law was lifted from the National Report, which prides itself on its outrageous fictional satire. I live in Old Forge and run a business here, and your editorial is spot-on.

Mr. Bendel, if you really believe everything you wrote, I’ve got a bridge in Brooklyn that I’d like to sell to you-cheap!

While Al Baker’s similarly-critical letter is at least more based in reality, he overstates, by a tremendous margin, the actual threat from foreign-born terrorists to American civilians.

If you look back over the past decade, the odds of being killed here by a foreign-born terrorist is significantly less than being shot and killed by a toddler, and would not come close to being among the top 500 causes of death in this country.

That threat has been hyped by our government-military-industrial-security complex, so it isn’t surprising that so many people, like Mr. Baker, have this unrealistic fear.

But there are thousands of things that Americans could do to make themselves safer in far more effective ways than blocking refugees from coming here.

It has been pointed out that there has been only one period in American history when undocumented immigrants posed a real threat to Americans who were already here, and that was when the original settlers came here from Europe!

Community theatre depends on community support To the Editor: We at the Our Town Theatre Group would like to thank Sun Community News, the Lower Adirondack Region Arts Council, the New York State Council on the Arts and Basil and Wicks, as well as all of our generous contributors and community business sponsors and supporters for making “Morning’s at Seven,” our first production of Our Town Theatre Group’s 20th Season, such a great success!

Community theatre depends on its community for survival and we’ve been very fortunate in having the help and support of so many wonderful people.

Increasing minimum wage will aid job growth To the Editor: I’m writing this in response to the letter, “Minimum wage increase will curb job growth, kill small businesses” submitted by Fred Erickson, of Chestertown.

You sir, are 100 percent wrong: This will not kill job growth and it will not kill small businesses. If the small businesses were 100 percent ready for a day like this, then the owners would and can start paying that wage per hour.

Second, there has been a lot of misinformation that has been put out there by many people, including Rep. Elise Stefanik. This is to set the record straight about this issue and will give anyone a better fighting chance to get out of poverty and to get off of welfare.

Why is there 60 percent of the people on welfare without any hope of a better future: Is it because the jobs market is so bad? Why have people who cannot get a fair job get off of that and go without?

In closing, this will put more money back into the economy and it will also generate more jobs creation then ever before people.

The small business owners should have prepared for this day to happen, period.

COMMENTARY

Little Bits Kaye’s 90th birthday Gordie Little

Columnist

F

or our family, April 14 will be tantamount to all the holidays together.

Catherine M. Little will celebrate her 90th birthday with family and friends at our house. I call her Catherine the great. She is my wife.

If you’re a regular reader of this column, you know about Kaye, born in a massive April snowstorm on property that is now Camp Jericho off the Rand Hill Road. I have always had the highest regard for the distaff side and I suppose it began with my mother who read the Holy Bible and the Reader’s Digest to me before I was weaned.

Genesis, Chapter 1, verse 3: “And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.” My mother said “light” was my first word. I have embraced a brilliant portion of the light for the past 42 years since Kaye and I were married in the Old Base Chapel.

Most of you know her as the source of my strength. She accepted me into her arms and we melded our families into what I have referred to as a winning combination involving 13 children. We now celebrate 20 grandchildren and 37 great grandchildren.

She takes little credit, but I sing her praises at every opportunity.

She has always been by my side in ways you might not know. She laid out my clothes each day when I worked on the radio. White shirt, necktie, sport coat, matching trousers and socks. They were all lined up on the bed every morning. She took pride in presenting me to the public on a pedestal that I didn’t always deserve.

When I began writing seriously, she critiqued every word and still does. She shuns the spotlight, while herself offering a bright source of my light.

Having been raised in a preacher’s home, I gained an early appreciation for the Holy Bible and grew up with the King James version.

Case in point? A passage in Proverbs that epitomizes the old saying, “A good woman is hard to find.” King James translated it as, “Who can find a virtuous woman?

For her price is far above rubies.”

A modern version reads, “A good woman is hard to find, and worth far more than diamonds.”

Today, I opened a Holy Bible given to me by my late father with his hand-written message inside: “Gordon, I couldn’t face up to life without the words of this book— read it carefully and prayerfully— Dad.” Yes, I have sung the “Hymn to a Good Wife” over and over and have embraced the modern translation that says, “Her husband trusts her without reserve, and never has reason to regret it. Never spiteful, she treats him generously all her life long.” I especially love the end: “The woman to be admired and praised is the woman who lives in the Fear-of-God. Give her everything she deserves!

Festoon her life with praises!”

I can’t think of a better way than to say it right here: Happy birthday, my darling and thank you for saving me from certain degradation.

Hamilton County preps for Bicentennial activities

LAKE PLEASANT — The Hamilton County Bicentennial kicks off April 12, 200 years to the day after the provisional creation of the county in 1816.

“This is an important watershed for Hamilton County. In an age of accelerating urbanization, when rural areas are in decline across America and beyond, it is nothing short of remarkable that our community continues to thrive,” said Hamilton County Historian Dr. Eliza Jane Darling. “I hope all those who love Hamilton County will join us in celebrating our unique way of life on the occasion of our Bicentennial.”

OTTG announce acting workshops NORTH CREEK — Our Town Theatre Group is happy to announce an acting workshop for adults, a new addition to its 20th Season of programming.

This venue is for beginners looking to find out what acting is all about or veteran actors looking to hone their skills. Over the four sessions of the workshop, students will have the opportunity to work on scenes or monologues to learn the craft of getting beyond the lines of a script to bring a character to life on stage.

The acting workshop is open to all students age 18 and over and cost $25 per person to participate.

The workshops are scheduled four Sunday sessions beginning April 3 until May 1, at the Lyle Dye Auditorium,from 1 to 4 p.m.

The acting workshop is led by Jordan Hornstein a frequent OTTG guest director and actor.

For more information about this workshop or OTTG’s 20th Season, visit ottg.org. To register for the acting workshop for adults email the name and contact information to Tickets@ottg.org. Space is limited and registrations will be taken on a first come, first served basis.

The year of events gets started at 10:30 a.m. April 12 with a birthday party for the county, held at the County Courthouse in Lake Pleasant. State Sen. Hugh Farley and Assemblyman Mark Butler will join other officials on the steps of the courthouse for a ceremony promptly at 10:30, so guests are asked to arrive early. A small reception with birthday cake will follow, and Darling will offer tours of the historic county complex.

At 11 a.m. that day, schools, churches and firehouses across the large county will make a joyful sound in honor of the county’s birthday. The county is asking members of the public who wish to participate and ring their own bell to video it and send the footage to Darling, who will put together a montage to be posted on the Bicentennial website.

The just-launched Bicentennial website, www.hamiltoncountybicentennial.org, includes information on the history of Hamilton county and its communities, as well as the schedule of events and a page for contributions to the fundraising effort. The website also includes a digital guide that may be browsed online or downloaded as a PDF. A printed version of the guide will be available at libraries and museums throughout the county. Other Bicentennial events include the Hamilton County History Fair in August and a Bicentennial Bash in October.

Funds are still being raised to make it a memorable and celebratory Bicentennial. Anyone wishing to make a donation may do so through the website or by sending a check or money order to Hamilton County Treasurer, 102 County View Drive, Lake Pleasant, NY 12108.

ILCS students participate at Wild Center Adirondack Day TUPPER LAKE — Indian Lake Students in grades 1 to 4 and ninth grade attended the Adirondack Curriculum Project’s Adirondack Day recently at the Wild Center. Adirondack Day is designed to allow students to share projects they have created to learn about the Adirondacks with other students. “Kids get to teach other kids about their own communities, it’s a great experience,” said Sandy Bureau, 9th grade Living Environment teacher/ Adirondack Day coordinator. “Every group came with great projects and presented them to other kids including hands on activities. My ninth graders showed younger students the research they had conducted on alien invasives in Indian Lake.”

Students from Potsdam, Newcomb and Tupper Lake attended.

GLENS FALLS —The first meeting hasn’t been conducted yet, but Christopher Schmidt, newly appointed temporary chairman of the Warren County chapter of the Libertarian Party, is ready to tackle local issues.

“We won’t be running candidates this upcoming election in November 2016, as far as we know,” he said, giving the chapter time to focus on those issues.

Some of those issues have been bantered about recently, such as the constitutionality of the voting structure for the county board of supervisors.

Others have been of interest to Schmidt for some time, as he’s kept himself involved as a political activist.

“I think its pretty straight forward in how it applies,” he said of the one person, one vote rule he says is being violated.

Schmidt advocated for equal voting wards in Queensbury in 2012.

He operates a local quarterly newspaper, “The Observation Post,” and led a campaign in 2010 for the Glens Falls Police Department to reduce the use of tasers It was that work locally that put him on the radar for the New York State Libertarian Party, selecting him for his new role.

He’s also concerned with the disconnect with officials and the public with drug abuse and homelessness.

“There’s a lot of drug use in our region. There’s a lot of taboo surrounding a (homeless) shelter and a rehab center within the city,” he said.

The meeting is free to the public and is set for 6:30 p.m.

April 13 at Rock Hill Bakehouse Café on Exchange Street in Glens Falls.

For more information, contact Schmidt at 307-2695 or email at WarrenCountyLibertarians@gmail.com.

State champ tops list of local All-State soccer stars Wills, Follmer key parts of PHS title run, Morris key in finals run with Griffins

Trevor Wills, PHS

Noah Mohr, LPCS

Alex Follmer, PHS

Jaso Hannula, LPCS

Joel Morris, Griffins

Wills had key scores in both the state semifinal and championship game. Perhaps the most memorable was teaming up with teammate Hans Kurzmann for the opening goal of the Class B title game against East Aurora, only 34 seconds into the game.

Wills, a senior, led the Hornets with 39 points, scoring 15 goals while recording nine assists on the season.

Mohr was the anchor of the Blue Bombers defense from the net position, as the senior helped to lead the team to the Section VII/Class C championship game.

Follmer was tied for second on the team in points, as the senior combined six goals and 12 assists for 24 points. He was a captain for the state championship Hornets.

Only a sophomore, Hannula is one of the top defenders in Section VII, protecting the turf around his second team mate in Mohr to keep opponents away from the back of the Blue Bomber net.

Morris helped lead the Griffins to the Class D state title game, leading the region in goals and points in earning the Northern Soccer League Division II MVP award.

Assemblyman Dan Stec addresses the state assembly on Friday, April 1.

proached shortly before midnight on April 1.

Stec’s motion to delay the vote was defeated.

Lawmakers didn’t receive the 702-page budget until 11:48 p.m., Stec said — just four hours before the vote, and before legislators had a chance to read it.

The state budget consists of 10 separate bills, Stec said.

The debt service bill is usually fully-aged, he explained, including this year, when it arrived three days before deadline.

The other nine are a mixed bag.

But all of them required a message of necessity this year.

While legal, Stec said usage of the mechanism isn’t in “the spirit of the Constitution.”

“It’s not about a late night,” he said. “The public has a constitutional right to view legislation.”

Since taking office in 2011, Gov. Andrew Cuomo has made delivering on-time budgets

a point of pride, bringing a degree of stability to a process that was often months behind schedule under his predecessors.

This year’s $154 billion spending plan contained several pieces of legislation that required deep analysis, said Stec, including paid family leave and the minimum wage increase.

New York City will go to $15 per hour within three years, while upstate has until 2021 to get to $12.50, with future increases based on the economic climate.

Stec said lawmakers didn’t know the details.

“It wasn’t as simple as the number is $15,” Stec said. “They came up with a hybrid.”

The lawmaker said the lack of debate reminded him of the mystery surrounding the SAFE Act, the controversial gun control legislation passed in 2013 following the Sandy Hook mass shooting.

“People were angry and they should be,” Stec said. “It’s unreasonable to not allow the public access to these bills.”

Hogan did not comment on what additional charges would follow in light of the child’s death.

An autopsy was scheduled to be performed at Albany Medical Center last week, however, any results would be considered evidence and would not be made public by Hogan.

Records show the child was born March 6 at the Glens Falls Hospital to Jones and Nicole Parker.

The pair, according to police, shared a home in North Creek, where police were summoned at approximately 5 a.m. March 28 for an emergency involving a 22-day-old infant who was reported to not be breathing.

Jones remains in Warren County Jail.
