State asked to assist schools in Adirondack Park

PAGE 2 IN MORIAH

By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — Students attending schools in the Adirondack Park are at a disadvantage.

That’s the feeling of Ticonderoga Central School District officials, who are asking the state to create a special fund to help finance education within the Blue Line.

“The children living within the Adirondack Park are being under-served as a result of the inability to financially support their educational institutions beyond the local property tax,” said John McDonald, Ti school superintendent. “This problem will continue to grow unless communities within the park can grow their tax base through economic development. However, that is not a likely scenario based on the regulations that exist to keep the park as a natural

Whitney is halfway to her goal. A 5-kilometer run in June netted $5,053. Now she’s planning a “Bike and Hike” event Saturday, Nov. 3, at Severance Hill in Schroon Lake.

“I cannot express how grateful I am for all of the support I received from people in my community and in many other communities,” Whitney said of the run. “There were 45 incredible participants in the 5K race and over 100 individual and

Her goal is to raise $10,000 this year for a school lunch program that will feed 130 Nicaraguan children.

“This money will pay for the lunches of a little more than 130 children for one school year,” she said.

Old Moses-Ludington Hospital to be razed by developer New building to become senior apartments

By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — A $7 million project to construct a senior citizen housing complex in Ticonderoga is on schedule, but there has been a major change in the plan.

Liberty Affordable Housing Inc. had planned to renovate the old Moses-Ludington Hospital into 31 apartments, but the firm has decided that is no longer feasible.

“During the process of interior demolition and abatement, structural issues were uncovered beyond what was originally anticipated,” said Davis Yohe, Liberty deputy ex-

ecutive director. “A thorough inspection performed by a structural engineer revealed extensive deterioration and it was determined that the building is structurally unsound.”

As a result Liberty has decided to raze the long-vacant building and construct a new building in its place. It will be called Moses Circle Senior Apartments.

“Understanding that the three-story landmark is a proud symbol of Ticonderoga’s history, Liberty has instructed the project architect to prepare new architectural plans that will maintain the character and look of the old hospital,” Yohe said.

Plans are to demolish the old hospital soon and place footings for the new construction before inclement weather arrives. Work would then continue throughout the winter

with completion scheduled at the end of 2013 as originally planned.

Liberty and Ti officials began working on the project in 2006. The process included an Adirondack Park Agency map change in 2007 that made the project exempt from Adirondack Park Agency oversight.

The old MLH building is owned by Liberty, which bought it in June from Inter-Lakes Health.

The plan is for the senior apartments to be operated by CRM Rental management, through a contract with the developer, Liberty. CRM now operates Lord Howe Estates in conjunction with Inter-Lakes Health.

Moses Circle Senior Apartments is one of 35 projects chosen statewide to receive funding to build and preserve affordable housing under New York State Homes and Commu-

nity Renewal’s competitive 2011 Unified Funding round.

“New York State Homes and Community Renewal is the agency responsible for the funding and oversight of the project and supports Liberty’s decision for the change to new construction,” Yohe said.

Funding for the project is through New York State Homes and Community Renewal with a $1.36 million low-interest HOME loan and an allocation of federal low-income housing tax credits. The tax credits will be converted to a private equity investment of $5.66 million.

Liberty Affordable Housing Inc. is a notfor-profit developer with over 1,200 units of quality affordable housing across New York State.

TICONDEROGA — International Paper will sign a long-term lease agreement with Vermont Gas to connect its Ticonderoga mill to the natural gas pipeline the company is developing.

“We are excited with this opportunity to bring natural gas service to International Paper’s Ticonderoga mill,” Don Gilbert, president and CEO of Vermont Gas Systems said in a press release.

“This is a great opportunity for the mill, Vermont and for the region.”

The pipeline is currently being extended from Chittenden County, Vt., into Addison County, and then south to Rutland, Vt. Steve Wark, director of communications for Vermont Gas, said the participation of International Paper’s extended lease agreement has allowed the company to use a larger pipe and will aid the company in expanding the pipeline to Rutland.

The paper mill currently uses heavy oil trucked in from Albany, which the plant uses to put into boilers and create steam to power the entire mill. The natural gas will improve the greenhouse emissions by the plant.

Donna Wadsworth, IP spokeswoman, said the use of natural gas will help the mill achieve it’s goal of lowering its green house emissions by 20 percent by 2020.

Wadsworth said the change will have a minimal effect on the mechanics the mill uses now. The only change will be to reconfigure the boilers and the lime kiln temperatures to heat the gas.

Vermont Gas will install the 10-inch pipe between the bedrock and the bottom of Lake Champlain. Wark said the pipe will be laid deep enough that it won’t disturb the bottom of the lake and with enough “buffer” that it won’t be disturbed.

How deep the piping is laid will be determined by geotechnical studies to determine what minerals are below the lake bed.

“From soil samples we’ll see if it’s clay, stone or a hard sediment to make sure our piping can pass through it,” Wark said.

“We use a proven technology used to minimize the environmental impact and eliminate shifting and erosion.”

After the pipeline is completed it will be inspected regularly by piping inspection gauges. The system monitors and cleans pipes without the need to halt production or for humans to go under water.

Vermont Gas will submit requests for permits for the first phase of the Addison Natural Gas Project by December. The Addison Project is the first step in expanding service further south in Vermont. The project is currently in the process of filing for construction permits.

Natural gas is 44 percent less expensive than fuel oil and 55 percent cheaper than propane, Wadsworth said. The use of natural gas will have a significant effect on job retention and encouraging a viable future for the mill, she said.

The mill opened in 1970 on Shore Airport Road. IP currently employs 600 workers and indirectly secures employment for 650 independent loggers and truckers who earn a living by harvesting and delivering wood.

“I can’t overstate the importance of this agreement,” said Chris Mallon, Ticonderoga mill manager, said in a press release. “Our business is highly competitive and cost reduction projects such as this will help the long-term viability of the mill and retain jobs for the region. This agreement provides a unique opportunity for the mill to reap the benefits of a fuel that is much lower cost, while positioning us to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions.”

Wark said the lease agreement with the mill is going to be mutually beneficial for the Vermont community.

“These jobs have an effect on Vermont businesses and the lowered greenhouse emissions from the mill, which is a close neighbor to Vermont, it is going to help people here, too,” Wark said.

The construction process has already created 70 local jobs in the community. Wark said Vermont gas is striving to hire locally. The positions are for at least two to three years and others are seasonal depending on the position Wark said.

“Get your costumes and treat bags ready for a fun filled afternoon in Ticonderoga,” said matt Courtright, executive director of the Ti chamber.

The Ticonderoga Montcalm Street Partnership Seeks to create meaningful, long-term change in Ticonderoga’s traditional business district and to promote economic revitalization and consequent historic preservation by employing precepts of the National Trust Main Street Center of the National Trust for Historic Preservations.

Electoral College fails NY residents

Lets keep the debates going

It’s time for a change

he recent presidential and vice presidential debates have been closely watched by the American Public. In an era when television has moved away from serials, dramas and sit-coms in favor of reality TV, and the major media outlets have moved from watchdog journalism to entertainment news, we should consider replacing the State of the Union Address and infrequent press conferences with live debates.

Our presidents and congressional leaders have failed to serve their constituents, allowing gridlock and partisan feuds to rule the day. Instead of feeling hopeless, awaiting the next election cycle to see if a true leader can emerge, why not demand that they debate the issues they all claim they want to solve? Instead of pawns we could become participants in the live drama by becoming far more aware of what is going on in our nation’s capital.

At least once per year the president should spend an hour-and-a-half debating major issues with a member of the opposing party, such as the Speaker of the House or Senate Majority Leader, and explain what they are doing or why they haven’t accomplished the many promises they so adamantly told us they would accomplish if elected. This would give each side a stage to bring the compelling issues before the American public. Nowhere to hide, nowhere to run. They can call each other liars and insist the facts have been twisted, but the major issues of the day would be front and center and in full view of the American public instead of presented at staged, scripted events.

Take for example the current issues swirling around the now confirmed terrorist attack in Benghazi. How much would we know today were it not for the debates and upcoming elections? The press didn’t demand accountability until more details were coming out as a result of the debates. How serious are presidential appearances and interviews on shows like the View, late night comedy shows or Entertainment Tonight? Our nation’s leaders have been able to hide behind subordinates and entertainment celebrities instead of facing the nation and responding publicly and personally to their critics.

Take for example a recent appearance on ABC’s the View. Whoopi Goldberg barely let Ann Romney settle into her seat before quizzing the candidate’s wife, asking why Mitt Romney didn't serve in Vietnam, if the couple is prepared to console families of fallen soldiers, their stance on abortion and issues related to the Romneys’ Mormon faith. Unlike

W

ith the presidential campaign in its final days, enthusiasm for this year ’s election is nearing a peak. It’s too bad your vote won’t matter.

That statement is heresy in the United States, a nation where we’re taught almost from birth the value and responsibility of voting in a democracy — but it’s true in our case. That’s because no matter how we vote, New York’s 29 electoral votes will go to President Obama.

That’s the nature of the Electoral College, which was established by our founding fathers in the Constitution as a compromise between election of the president by a vote in Congress and election of the president by a popular vote of citizens. When we vote, we are actually voting for “electors” who will represent us in the actual vote for president.

The Electoral College consists of 538 “electors.” A majority of 270 electoral votes is required to elect the president. A state’s allotment of electors equals the number of members in its congressional delegation.

In every state but two, Maine and Nebraska, the Electoral College is winner take all. That means a candidate gets all of New York’s 29 electoral votes, even if he wins the state popular vote by one ballot.

Because New York City is so heavily Democratic, New York State’s 29 electoral votes will go to Obama. No matter how passionate the debate may be throughout the North Country, Obama will win New York State.

Our vote, at least for president, means nothing.

We’re not alone. In fact, virtually all the pundits believe this presidential election will be determined by seven to nine “swing” states, states where the popular vote could push the electoral vote either way.

That’s why Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney are willing to spend days, even weeks, and millions of dollars in states like Ohio, Virginia and Florida while ignoring New York and other states.

Candidates generally like the Electoral College. It allows them to focus their time, energy and money on key states. Citizens should not be as happy with a system that disenfranchises so many voters.

If our president was elected by popular vote candidates would be forced to appeal to all voters across country. They would no longer be able to simply write off entire regionals as a lost cause and simply take other states for granted.

It’s time that one man, one vote becomes more than a slogan. It’s time for everyone’s vote to count. Changing the Constitution is a serious, difficult thing, but it’s time to revisit the Electoral College.

T

a recent joint appearance on the show by President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama, during which questioning ranged from how romanDan Alexander tic is the president, what Thoughts from his mood is like given the Behind the Pressline pressures he faces and details pertaining to the couple's anniversary celebration. This interview took priority over meeting with world leaders at the UN while in New York City.

Facing off directly against those who adamantly oppose their actions would better enable the American public to determine the shortcomings of our nation’s leaders. If the problem is Congress, the president can call them out and ask the public for their assistance to move issues through the House or Senate. If legislation isn’t passing because congress is loading up bills with pork barrel items the president can specifically address those issues to the public. But if it’s clear that the president isn’t providing the appropriate leadership as promised to move the country forward, the public and the press will be compelled to demand greater accountability.

To make the discussions more focused and to ensure the moderator is not spellbound by the participant’s celebrity, nor bullied due to their powerful perseverance, I would suggest we enlist the services of a former US president to control the evening’s discussions as the moderator. By keeping the press off the stage their primary role becomes reporting and not interjecting themselves or their opinions into the issues at hand. Who knows, it might even produce a return to more balanced journalism.

Should one party control all three houses the organizers would then ask for a national opposition leader to step forward and provide the opposing viewpoint. My final suggestion would be for the League of Women Voters to be the non-partisan organization to oversee the debates as opposed to subordinates of those debating or party officials.

We must find a way to break the deadlock that has continued to grow worse in Washington. This might be a way to do just that. If you think this idea has merit spread the word—it might just take root.

Letters to the Editor

Doheny the right choice

Use social media in promotions

F

Thankful

To the Times of Ti:

An elderly neighbor receives lunch through the meals on wheels.

Three new families are in line for the food pantry because no matter how hard they try the money isn’t enough to provide housing, utilities and food for the family. Families are in need of assistance with utility bills, disabled people can’t afford their insulin. Mothers need help buying winter coats for their young children and a young family learns that their son has cancer and needs to leave the state for treatment but they can’t afford the gas to take him. A mother and her children flee for their lives and with the help of Stop Domestic Violence they have a safe place to stay and the emotional support they need to live a better life. Area youth attend meetings where they learn valuable life skills and leadership through the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts.

It’s hard to believe that most of these scenarios take place on a daily basis in our community…we get so caught up in our daily routines that we don’t take time to notice what’s taking place around us… imagine the impact you could have on these situations with a single donation to the United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc. No one is immune to the problems facing our community today. In our ever-changing world, you never know when a family member, neighbor, or even you may need a United Way service. Job loss; loss of a loved one; illness; disability; natural disaster know no boundaries.

Your gift ensures that United Way services are available when they’re needed.

United Way makes it possible to give one gift that supports 41 different local programs and services. Your one gift does so much good and the best part is 100 percent of donated funds remain right here in Clinton, Essex, and Franklin counties. Where else can you make this kind of investment in your community!

When you participate in the United Way Campaign you are saying “Yes” to becoming part of the change…”Yes” to building a stronger community for us all to live and raise our families. Your gift, combined with hundreds of others makes a difference everyday in Clinton, Essex and Franklin counties.

Our goal is $775,000; but it’s not only about meeting the goal, it’s about meeting the need which continues to be very strong in these trying times. Thank you for considering a contribution to the United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc. If you have questions about how to donating please contact us at 518-563-0028 or visit our web-site at www.unitedwayadk.org. Your donation today will make a difference everyday. Thank You

acebook, Twitter, YouTube, LinkedIn and Google+. What are all of these names and how can they help me promote my business or organization? I am sure most of you have used or at least heard of one of these social networking sites.

Using social media to promote your Matthew Courtright business or organization truly has beChamber Connection come a way of life. I do understand that for many this world can be overwhelming and I am certainly no expert; but using social media and the online opportunities available to you can really make a difference in promoting your business or organization, events, products and services available.

Using social media is an inexpensive way to promote your business or organization and to keep new and existing customers chatting about you. I would suggest that if you are new to social media or are uncomfortable with all of the aspects to choose one (Facebook would be my recommendation) and focus your efforts on that particular social network.

You can also attend seminars on using social media.

Here is some general information as well as some great tips for using some of today’s most popular social networking sites.

Facebook: Set up a page on Facebook. This is a great place to post promotions, specials and news on a regular basis to all those who like your page. Ask questions on your page about the products or services you offer. Suggest that people provide you with comments and suggestion as well as share pictures. You can also have contests, share updates from your business or organization, share links to blogs or articles, create events to invite subscribers to and more.

Facebook provides a wonderful forum to have conversations with your consumers on a regular basis. On Facebook people like your page.

Twitter: Use Twitter to tweet about your business or organization. Share interesting facts; provide links to information on your products or services and share short tips how to best use your products or services. On Twitter you have followers.

LinkedIn: You can create a LinkedIn profile and add links to your website, update your profile with new links, information on products, articles or other information to all the people in your network. You can also join LinkedIn groups that may be popular with your customers. You will have the ability to post questions and comments on related information.

Ask your customers, vendors, or other business associations in your network questions, recommendations, and share comments and concerns. You can also search the answers section on LinkedIn and look for questions that you can answer related to your business or are of expertise. LinkedIn is also used as a social networking site for business professionals.

Google+: Create circles in your Google+ profile that are set up specifically for your customers, your vendors and others interested in your business or organization. Post interesting content to customer and other business related circles. Encourage feedback and comments. Content can include blog posts, articles, product reviews, specials, promotions and other offers or exciting news. You can start a hangout which is a multiuser chat tool. This can be used to solicit feedback from customers.

YouTube: Create a YouTube channel for your business or organization. You can add fun and useful videos and encourage customers to share the videos with others. You can have video contests and have customers show you how they use your products or services. You could also ask customers to submit video testimonial and post them on your YouTube Channel.

No matter what social networking sites you are using, be sure to have promotional materials and signs at your place of business showcasing the sites you are using and suggesting to others to like or follow your business. In addition include this information in any print, online, TV, or radio advertisements you are placing. You can access logos online for all the social networking sites to use in promotional materials.

Certainly every business or organization needs to have an online presence in some capacity. I certainly suggest all businesses and organizations having a website and using one social media account as long as you are able to be an active user and update information on a regular basis.

In addition there are some other online sites that you could use to promote your business. I suggest checking these sites out and look at adding them in addition to social media into your marketing plan. Living Social, Jump On It, Expedia, Bruce and Hobbes Daily Deals and many more. In addition online advertising with media outlets including newspapers, radio, TV and others are options certainly worth exploring to drive visits to your website and business.

I will end this month’s article by saying don’t worry if you are uneasy about using a social networking site. Come to one of the seminars the chamber will be offering on social media or stop into the chamber office for guidance. We would be even happy to help you get started. And yes there can be negative aspects of using social media. Be sure to respond to all comments both positive and negative but do not get into arguments. Stay positive! As in everything it is important to be careful about the information you are sharing.

Some of the content included in this Chamber Connection was provided from an online article titled “Using Social Media to Promote Your Business” by Shannon Below and Joel Elad.

To the Times of Ti:

The Conservative Party considers Matt Doheny to be the preeminent choice for representative of the newly-formed 21st Congressional District in the upcoming 2012 election.

Matt earned a BA in political science from Allegheny College and JD in business law from Cornell Law School. After practicing law and gaining experience, he entered the business world.

His track record in business is that of great success, helping large troubled companies reorganize, recover from bankruptcy, save jobs and prosper.

Matt Doheny has pledged to work diligently on key issues, which include twin challenges of growth and debt, energy, gas prices, national security, health, taxes and the economy.

Matt has the experience to create jobs and turn the economy around. He will vote to repeal Obamacare, be a leader in Washington to reduce out of control government spending to reduce our national debt, work toward energy independence and lower gas prices.

The Conservative Party believes that Matt Doheny is astute to the most crucial issues facing the North Country, energetic and committed to making upstate a better place to live, work and raise a family.

We look forward to forward to electing Matt Doheny as our representative in the 21st Congressional District.

Vote Right. Vote Conservative. Vote Doheny.

God bless America and God bless and guide the Conservative Party!

Cat is OK To the Times of Ti: This is a letter to thank the woman that picked up my black cat after he was hit by a car.

I want her to know he had no broken bones or internal injuries and after two days of laying around getting sympathy and undivided attention from the family he is back to playing and acting like nothing ever happened.

This is more proof that cats have nine lives. He had to have used up eight by now. Thank you again for your care and concern.

Patty Blanchard Crown Point

Vote for Stec To the Times of Ti: Retiring Assemblywoman Teresa Sayward has been a great representative for our district over the past decade. So, her endorsement of Dan Stec, along with over 30 local respected officials leads me to believe he is the right guy for the job.

Dan has been serving as the Queensbury town supervisor since 2004. He knows what we want at the local level and what we need – lower property taxes and economic growth. As a town supervisor Mr. Stec has led the charge in keeping taxes down, he has even managed to return almost $10 million in rebates to his constituents!

Clearly Mr. Stec has the experience to serve in the Assembly and make the real changes we desperately need across New York State.

Actions speak louder than words, Dan Stec has the track record of success we deserve representing us in Albany!

Vote Stec on Nov. 6.

Sayward supports Owens To the Times of Ti: It is my pleasure to officially endorse Bill Owens for Congress.

Bill’s intelligence, integrity and work ethic make him the right choice for Congress.

Our elected officials must work together for the good of all of the people. Congressman Owens record shows that he is a true moderate who is willing to work across party lines in the best interest of his constituents. Congressman Owens (D) worked with Congressman Gibson (R) to host the Federal Agricultural Committee in Saranac Lake, allowing local farmers to have input in the upcoming Federal Farm Bill.

Bill works closely with businesses to promote jobs across the Congressional District. He has been a valued partner with Canadian companies that seek to set up shop this side of the Canadian border. The Congressman is a tireless advocate working hard to fill unfilled jobs, working with our local schools to make sure our students are prepared to meet the needs of local businesses.

Bill Owens traveled to Newcomb to give the commencement address to the handful of students in this remarkable little school. This speaks volumes about his commitment to all of our communities irrespective of their size.

The congressman is helping our retired veterans and also with current military personnel and their families. Bill is engaged with our troops just returning stateside from overseas. As a veteran himself, Bill never fails to acknowledge the sacrifices our military make every day. Congressman Owens is very responsive to my office inquiries. Bill has responded to me regarding concerns from our businesses, military, farmers, and constituents in general with tough issues that can’t be addressed at the state level.

Congressman Owens is a proven leader. He is non-partisan, honest, smart, and has a genuine concern for the needs of the people in his congressional district.

Distinguished Young Women program marks anniversary

By Katherine Clark katherine@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — The Distinguished Young Women scholarship program, formerly Junior Miss, will celebrate its 50th program in Ticonderoga on Saturday, Nov. 3.

“We are proud to note we are one of only five local programs here in New York and one of 315 local programs in the entire country,” Tracey Cross-Baker, a program organizer, said.

Founded in 1958 in Mobile, Ala., Distinguished Young Women is the oldest national scholarship program for high school girls.

This year seven young women from Ticonderoga High School will compete for the title and scholarship.

Contestants include Rebecca Barber, Alaina Bevilacqua, Victoria Sawyer, Wen Na (Anita) Zhang, Hailey Harris and Bianca Jordon of Ticonderoga along with Alyssa Rodriguez of Putnam.

There will also be more than 15 second grade students participating in the “Little Sisters” program. The little sisters will also participate in a fashion show put on by current students at Ticonderoga High School.

The program’s long history has been more than the enjoyment of pageantry for one night, said Cross-Baker, the 1986 Ticonderoga Junior Miss.

“For me it was a life changing,” Cross-Baker said. “I entered wanting to be part of the long standing tradition. I never imagined it would

start to change the way I viewed my future.”

She said she wants other women who live in Ticonderoga and other rural areas to have a chance to see other possibilities and see what is out there for them aside from what they’ve always known.

“I was able to do so much and see a lot, participating in the program inspired me to try more things,” Cross-Baker said.

The program, which began as the Junior Miss program and became the Distinguished Young Woman in 2010, has offered a scholarship opportunity to many area women.

“Over the years, we have provided a unique opportunity and a lifetime of memories to several hundred participants. There was also a long period of time when our program included contestants from Crown Point as well as at Ticonderoga High School,” Cross-Baker said.

Through the program more than $100,000 in scholarships have been given to area girls.

There are still several individuals in the community who were part of the very first local program as well as a number of past representatives, Cross-Baker said.

Though the show’s participants have shined under the lights, Cross-Baker said the program’s long history in Ticonderoga couldn’t have been possible without the committed volunteers and teachers.

“Andy Powvorznik was chairman of the program for more than 20 years and he was incredibly dedicated,” Cross Baker said. “He left shoes I don’t think anyone could fill.

“The committee members and volunteers re-

ally make this show happen,” she said.

Committee members currently include Tracey Cross-Baker, Lori Clark, Karen SharkeyBennett, Marge Cross, Amy Schryer, Brooke Taylor, Sue Hayes and Gayle Wells.

Cross-Baker said the committee hopes to involved as many past participants as possible in the 50th anniversary program. Past contestants who would like more information should call Cross Baker at 585-2525.

Tiny Tim applications available

By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA—The Tiny Tim Christmas Wish Program is now taking applications for its 2012 holiday gift distribution.

The program, now in its 32nd year, provides Christmas gifts to needy children living in the area. Any family receiving free or reduce price lunches at school is eligible, if they have children attending the Ticonderoga Central School District or St. Mary’s School.

Applications are now available at the Ticonderoga Community Building on Montcalm Street.

The deadline for applications is Nov. 10.

For information call Nancy Quesnel at 5857017.

Quesnel replaced Helen Gibbs as director last year. Gibbs stepped down after the 2010 holiday season following 20 years with the program.

Quesnel stressed the program is entirely

WARNING

confidential. After applications are verified, names are removed and families are assigned numbers, she said. People who purchase gifts buy for a specific number, not knowing who the child is.

The Tiny Tim program started in 1980 when a group of Ticonderoga Central School teachers realized the need. The program grew to the point the teachers could no longer handle the demand.

There have been a lot of changes during the years.

Tiny Tim no longer accepts or distributes used items and gifts are no longer wrapped.

And, Tiny Tim has grown. It started out giving away winter coats. Now each child gets six pair of socks, six sets of underwear, a jacket, ski pants, boots, clothing and toys.

Tiny Tim will not purchase any electronics such as iPods, cell phones, computers or game systems.

Tiny Tim now serves about 75 families and nearly 200 children each holiday season.

It costs more than $6,000 a year to operate the Tiny Tim program.

In the mid-1980s, her mother took ownership of her 200year-old family farmhouse in Ticonderoga.

Ida would stay at the farmhouse during the summer, and would also have her own bedroom.

“I was really looking forward to declaring my own space,” Ida said. “I didn’t have any reason to be scared until I slept upstairs.”

Ida spent her first night at the house listening to doors opening and closing and footsteps going up and down the hallway.

The next morning, Ida learned that her aunt called it the “spooky room.”

Ida had a different word for it—terrifying.

It was her first, and last, night in the bedroom.

“My mother ’s whole philosophy was: ‘Oh, they’re my family, they don’t bother me,’” Ida said. “Every night I would feel like my space was being encroached upon, like they were just standing next to the bed, watching me.”

The paranormal activity was not confined to the upstairs bedroom, though.

Ida said the footsteps continued downstairs, objects inside the house would move on their own and she would sometimes smell flowers and feel cold spots.

Her recent visits to the property have shown that the activity has evolved, too.

“What’s been happening over the last decade is there’s been a lot of talking going on, which I never heard while growing up,” Ida said. “It’s really muffled—they like to talk now.”

Ida now lives in New York City, but the supernatural events have stayed with her. She still has dreams about the farm, dreams in which someone is showing her around the property and describing how it looked in the past.

The strange thing is, after one of those dreams Ida discovered that the historical description she received in her dream, which she had no previous knowledge of, was accurate.

“When I’ve tried to make sense of these experiences, I’ve tried to feel like it’s a natural phenomenon,” Ida said.

“There’s so much going on in nature, why wouldn’t there be an opportunity for something like this to exist?”

Ida’s explanation might bring her comfort, but it doesn’t help bring her back to visit the farmhouse very often.

“During the day, it’s such beautiful country out there, but at night it’s a different thing entirely,” Ida said. “There real-

ly is a tie to that ancestral feeling.”

That connection to ancestry is something Ida’s brother, Jonathan, feels like he is a part of. Jonathan has witnessed some of the same kinds of events as Ida—the noises, moving objects and voices—but he has seen apparitions, too.

On one of his first days at the farm, he was backing up his pickup truck when he caught sight of a little blond boy in overalls in the truck’s side mirror.

“I slammed on my brakes because I thought I would hit him,” Jonathan said. “He looked like he was five years old, wearing old overalls and a bowl cut.”

It was broad daylight, and Jonathan investigated.

“Nothing was there, and I got shivers and a tingle on the neck,” Jonathan said. “The hair on the back of my neck stands up every time I have one of these experiences.”

Jonathan has also seen a man in a black coat vanish into the wall in his basement.

The sightings were enough to scare Jonathan, but in the barn, things can get physical.

“Two years ago, I walked into the barn and it felt like somebody grabbed my legs, and I fell and broke my foot,” Jonathan said. “I have fallen in the barn many times because it felt like someone tripped me or pushed me.”

Jonathan moved to the farm in 2000 and has been operating it as a CSA called Crystal Springs Farm for the last five years. He practices sustainable farming methods, meaning many of his methods mirror those used at the farm a century ago.

“I almost feel, in some strange way, that I’m repeating history,” Jonathan said.“We can, make soap and butcher animals. I live very close off the land—90 percent of the food I eat is off this land.”

And then Jonathan’s girlfriend, Michelle Danforth, found the letter. It was hidden in a secret compartment in the back of an antique desk and was dated Sept. 10, 1922.

“It was a letter from Horace Moses writing to my grandfather, Luther Moses, talking about the place, fixing it up and taking care of it,” Jonathan said. “When I read the letter, it seemed like it was written to me.”

Jonathan said he is often struck by a feeling of deja vu, that he is simply repeating things that were done on that same land more than 100 years ago.

It is a strange sense of familiarity, something he believes is somehow connected to the unexplained activity he has experienced.

But Jonathan said that, no matter how many voices he hears, no matter how many apparitions he sees, he will stay on the farm.

“When I really get scared, I say a prayer,” Jonathan said.

“I’ll speak out loud and tell them I’m not leaving here.”

Ski history to be discussed in Ti Hancock House to host author Nov. 2 TICONDEROGA — Jeremy Davis will present a program on his book “Lost Ski Centers of the Southern Adirondacks” at the Hancock House in Ticonderoga Friday, Nov. 2, at 7 p.m.

“Mr. Davis’ book on skiing history in the Adirondacks, including Ticonderoga, will be available for signing and for sale at the program,” noted Frank McCabe, Ticonderoga Historical Society trustee. “The event is free to the public and light refreshments will be served.”

The Adirondack region has long been a favorite of skiers. Downhill ski areas developed during the Great Depression when New Yorkers looked for an affordable escape to beat the winter blues. Over the decades, ski areas expanded with new lifts, lodges

and trails. Despite the popularity of the sport, many ski areas have disappeared. In this presentation, ski historian Davis will chronicle the history of these vanished ski areas with photographs and memories from those who enjoyed them, while also paying homage to restored and classic skiing opportunities still available in the Adirondacks.

“Attendees are encouraged to bring their own ski memorabilia, photos, and their memories to share with the group. Participation is fun and enjoyable for all those involved,” noted McCabe.

The Hancock House, home of the Ticonderoga Historical Society, is a Georgian mansion, a gift of philanthropist Horace Moses, and houses a significant collection of regional material in its archives, along with a research and genealogical library. The society is open all year and houses a gift shop full of books and area memorabilia.

“It may be pie in the sky, but we need to do something,” McDonald said. “The reductions in state (school) aid and lack of economic growth place a tremendous burden on local taxpayers. The property tax levy is our only source of revenue.

“The new property tax cap adds to this dilemma as it now limits the only source of revenue schools can influence to meet the rising costs of mandates, pension, health insurance and other elements related to operating a school system,” he said.

The money for the education fund could be generated by those who use the Adirondack Park, McDonald suggested.

“Since the Adirondack Park was established and is constantly touted as the ‘playground’ for the state, it’s only fair that those who benefit from it should help those who live in it,” McDonald said.

Besides limited economic development, Adirondack Park schools have other issues, McDonald noted. Most are rural and small, many with declining enrollments.

“When the state made a flat percentage cut in aid across the state it hurt us (Adirondack) schools more than others,” the superintendent said. “A cut of $100,000 means a lot more to us than to a much larger school. The big school may eliminate a language program, so it’s only offering four languages instead of five. Here, we only offer two languages.

That’s a much more serious cut to our students.”

The current state education aid formula is based on a district’s assessed property value and its poverty level, as measured by the number of free and reduce price lunches served to students.

“Property values are not a good measure of a community’s ability to pay taxes,” McDonald said, noting the existence of many high-value second homes in the park. “A community can have high property values, but its year-round residents may not be able to afford higher school taxes.”

He used Ticonderoga as an example. The Ti school district, which borders both Lake George and Lake Champlain, has the high-

est property values in this area. Yet, the school serves free or reduced price lunches to 48 percent of its students.

The rural nature of schools in the Adirondack Park is also a problem.

“As school enrollments drop, school leaders and boards of education are able to cut costs associated with certain parts of the school program, however other costs remain consistent,” McDonald said. “The costs of maintaining a facility does not fluctuate based on enrollment. Energy costs, insurance, debt service and daily maintenance are just some of the expenses that do not change when enrollment drops.

“It is incumbent on school districts to constantly assess their organizational structure in order to find opportunities to consolidate buildings and services, but that is not always an option given the vast distance between communities in the park,” he said.

It’s time for the state to acknowledge the

October 27, 2012

Adirondack Park has changed since it was created in 1892. Then it was 2.6 million acres.

Now it’s 6.1 million acres. The APA was formed in 1971 and regulations adopted to restrict development. Also, the state forest preserve has more than doubled.

“The park is a unique resource that New Yorkers should be proud of,” McDonald said, “but what has not been fully considered throughout its evolution and growth is the negative impact on the public educational institutions and the children they serve.”

Ti officials hope other school districts, towns and counties support their proposal.

“We want a united front; not just one school,” McDonald said. “Ticonderoga is trying to get the ball rolling, but we hope this gets support from school boards, towns and counties in the Adirondack Park.”

McDonald said he has had “positive” discussions with state Sen. Betty Little’s office on the issue.

A special education fund for Adirondack schools would benefit the entire region, McDonald believes.

“Although directed at schools, this fund would benefit all that reside within the park as it will reduce everyone’s reliance on the property tax,” he said. “In addition, it will confirm the state’s commitment to keep the park as a natural preserve and further demonstrate that it is a model for conservation for all New Yorkers.”

The superintendent stressed the Ticonderoga proposal is not an attack on the APA or the state. Adirondack schools face unusual challenges, he said, and need help.

“We’re not trying to be critical of the state or the APA (Adirondack Park Agency),” McDonald said. “We’re pointing out that the Adirondack Park is a unique place with unique rules and regulations. The state needs to recognize those regulations impact the people who live here.”

Mackenzie Strum, Emily Powers and Susan Ward of Girl Scout Troop #3068 completed their Silver Award project recently. They planned the work on the Ticonderoga Middle School nature trail, including painting a new sign and creating a study booklet for kindergarteners. Kim Powers is the leader of Troop #3068.

Janet Mallon was the project adviser. Chris Mallon directed the project work.

Ti airport receives grant for new fuel station

By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — The Ticonderoga airport will get a self-service fuel station next year.

The local facility has been awarded a $270,000 grant from Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s Regional Council initiative for the project.

“The FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) recommended the Ti airport for funding,” Ti Supervisor Deb Malaney said. “They are very partial to the airport because of its location and potential.”

Grants were also awarded to the Massena International Airport and the Piseco Airport.

“Where things move is where prosperity occurs; that’s true whether it’s by air, road or rail,” Regional Council Co-chair and North Country Chamber of Commerce President Garry Douglas and Regional Council Co-chair and Clarkson University President Tony Collins said in a joint statement. “Maintaining and enhancing our transportation assets is especially important in the Adirondacks, and we are very pleased that these investments can be made.”

Currently, limited availability of fuel service deters air traffic from visiting these airports, resulting in loss of potential fuel sales, Douglas and Collins said.

Ticonderoga Airport’s funding will directly address this issue with the addition of a self-

service, 24-hour, credit-card-reader fuel system that is expected to generate more revenue for the town.

“We’re very, very appreciative of the funding opportunity,” Malaney said. “Adding a fuel station to the Ticonderoga Airport will provide the critical link needed for expansion of our airport-related services. It will bring in new revenue, better support the current businesses that depend on it and will attract new related business. Overall, it will have a broad impact to the local and regional economy.”

Ticonderoga officials have been discussing a fuel station at the airport for several years.

Malaney expects the project to become reality in 2013.

State Sen. Betty Little said the investment encourages commerce and economic activity.

“Both the Piseco and Ticonderoga airports are important assets in the region, which is highly dependent on tourism and the economic activity of second-home owners,” Little said.

“These are improvements that will have longterm benefits, improving access to the North Country not only for visitors but those looking to invest and grow a business in our region.”

The fuel station will be the next step in a series of improvements at the Ticonderoga airport.

The entry road to the facility is being repaved this fall. In 2010 a five-year, $3.2 million renovation project was completed at the

facility located off Shore Airport Road.

The project leveled and repaved the runway, created a turning area for planes, erected security fencing, installed new wind socks and runway lights, and moved utility lines to allow for future expansion.

The money for the project came from the Federal Aviation Administration and cost tax-

payers nothing. A portion of every airline ticket sold in the U.S. goes to the FAA for airport rehabilitation. It’s the flying public that paid for the Ti project.

The Ticonderoga airport handles 11,000 landings and take-offs a year, according to the FAA.

Ticonderoga Middle School has been named a School of Distinction by the College For Every Student program. From left are student Nicholas Fitzgerald, CFES representative Steve Boyce, student Cerise Bush and Principal John Donohue. It’s the third consecutive year Ti has earned the honor.

Community dinner planned in Crown Point Annual Thanksgiving feast Nov. 21

By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com CROWN POINT — Plans are under way for the annual Crown Point community Thanksgiving dinner.

“With the economy struggling, many of us realize that there are blessings that we can share to ensure that we, as a community, look to each other’s needs,” said the Rev. David Hirtle, pastor of the First Congregational Church in Crown Point.

“Local Crown Point churches and businesses are again joining together to ensure that those Crown Point residents who are alone or those who might not have the means to celebrate Thanksgiving will have a traditional meal,” he

said. “The meal is designed to rekindle friendship and promote fellowship in our community.”

The dinner will be served at the United Methodist Church fellowship hall on Creek Road Wednesday, Nov. 21. There will be a continuous serving 4 to 7 p.m. There is no cost.

The meal is a joint effort of Sacred Heart, Crown Point United Methodist and the First Congregational churches.

“We are grateful to Debro’s On The Way Café, Crown Point Telephone, Crown Point Citgo, Hap’s, Village Auto, Crown Point Teachers Association, the post office team, Champlain National Bank, Gunnison’s Orchard, Torri’s Hair Dresser, the Knapp Club, as well as many individual members of the Crown Point area who are joining us to make this a true community time of fellowship and thanks giving,” Hirtle said.

The meal will be served with locally grown and

prepared items. Gunnison’s has donated the apples for the pies. Carlene from Maple Ridge will be making pumpkin pies. Crown Point post office employees are donating locally grown potatoes, which will be peeled and readied by members of The Knapp Club. Debro’s Cafe is making stuffing. Crown Point Telephone and Technology and Champlain National Bank employees along with members of the Congregational Church are making homemade rolls. Crown Point Citgo and Hap’s are supplying juice and milk for the children. Turkeys have again been donated by Sacred Heart Church and cooked in the United Methodist and Congregational ovens. Village Auto will provide vegetables and the Hammond Library is donating cranberry sauce. Condiments will be provided by Torri’s Hair Dressers. Funds for additional items have come from Champlain Bank as well as several anonymous sources.

“We are gratefully looking for staff to help us ensure the success of our community meal,” Hirtle said. “If you are able to help carve turkey, mash potatoes, cut pies, set up, serve and help clean up please contact us.”

People can call Hirtle at 597-3398 or Yvonne DuShane at 597-3212.

Take-out meals will be available to Crown Point residents physically unable to attend. People wishing take-outs can call Hirtle at 597-3398 and send someone to pick-up their meal at the Methodist Church.

The Knapp Senior Center will also serve a traditional meal from its kitchen on that day for senior citizens beginning at 5 p.m.

“This is a total community effort that will ensure fellowship and a traditional hot meal for those who might not have one otherwise here in Crown Point,” Hirtle said.

Cemetery association plans for future; Forrest Dale group meets CROWN POINT — The annual meeting of the Forrest Dale Association was held recently in Crown Point. The friends and members of Forest Dale Cemetery Association began the evening with an old-fashioned potluck. Reports were given on the past year.

“The highlight of the year begins with the Memorial Day service,” said the Rev. David Hirtle of the First Congregational Church.

“This time honored tradition annually highlights the many famous burial sites as well as provides a time for the community to come forward and decorate their loved ones memorials. The service was held in the area of the Hammond Circle. With music from the Crown Point Central School as well as an inspiring presentation by David Carr, this service highlights both history through the future.”

With the assistance of caretaker Gary Comes and his family, the lawn and surrounding area were kept neat and trim throughout the year.

“The struggle to keep the access road in good repair proved a

formidable challenge this year,” Hirtle said. “With the help of the good folks of the Crown Point highway department, the access road was repaired and kept open.

“We are also grateful to Bernie Lilliebridge and his helpers for their persistence in maintaining the appearance of the park with brush removal as well as cutting up trees that have fallen,” he said.

The board hopes to proceed with plans for a Memorial Park using etched bricks that would bear the names of those wishing to further memorialize the names of friends and loved ones. The board is also seeking donations for granite benches to be placed near the newly installed flagpole.

Donations, as questions can be addressed to Forest Dale Cemetery Association, PO Box 382, Crown Point 12928 The association has to announced its new website that highlights both the cemetery and the families who are placed here. With the assistance of Shana Macey, newly-elected assistant treasurer, and

her family, information and associated links to existing records can be found www.forestdalecemetery.org.

This year’s officers include David Hirtle, president, Kay Gunnison, vice president, David Carr, secretary, Patricia Knapp, treasurer, Shana Macey, assistant treasurer, and Barbara French, member at large. Natalie Allen has joined the board.

Bud Putnam continues to serve as contact for the cemetery and Comes as caretaker.

The Association welcomes all donations for it’s day-to-day operation.

“The contributions made to Forest Dale in the 1800s through the 1900s, when translated into today’s dollars do not stretch as far as they once did,” Hirtle said. “The association encourages all its user families to consider an annual donation to ensure the ongoing upkeep of our beautiful cemetery.

“With the leadership of the board of directors and the assistance of many Forest Dale Cemetery friends, a bright future is anticipated,” he said.

A spiritually-based humanitarian organization, the North Country Mission of Hope is committed to fostering hope and empowering relationships with the people of Nicaragua through sustainable programs in education, health care, community and ecological development. It began in 1998 by responding to the devastating effects of Hurricane Mitch on the impoverished villages of Nicaragua.

“All participants are requested to raise money for this great cause through sponsorships of family members, friends, etc.,” she said.

“Those who raise $30 or more will receive a Mission Esperanza bracelet and those who raise $75 or more will receive a Corazones Y Pies t-shirt.”

Hunger is rampant in Nicaragua. It is the second poorest country in the western hemisphere; only Haiti has worse poverty.

School lunch is important, Whitney said, because it is often the only food a child receives in a day.

“If they don’t get lunch at school during the day, odds are they won’t get fed every night when they go home,” she said. “It is so important that we sponsor these children to assure education and do what we can to assure better nutrition as well.

“I currently sponsor an 11 year-old girl attending Chiquilistagua Publico named Izayanna,” she said.

“The lunch we can buy for Clare Whitney, a Schroon Lake teen, poses with students from the Chiquilistagua Publico school in Nicaragua. Whitney is the students will vary from planning a “Bike and Hike” Nov. 3 to raise lunch money for students at the school.

Residents voice support for Moriah Police Department Information meeting likely

By Fred Herbst fred@denpubs.com PORT HENRY — The people of Moriah overwhelmingly support their local police department.

At least that’s the impression Supervisor Tom Scozzafava received at the September town board meeting.

“We had a big crowd and everyone who spoke supported the police,” Scozzafava said.

“I think the people of Moriah want to have a police department.”

The need for the two-man town police force was recently questioned by town councilman Tim Garrison.

“We have the (Essex County) sheriff’s department and the state police, do we need the Moriah Police Department?” Garrison asked recently. “We’re spending $100,000 a year on the police. Is that money being well spent?”

Garrison believes Moriah’s two-man police force does a good job, but wonders if its limitations make the taxpayer investment worthwhile.

Some people did make their views known at the last town board meeting. While Scozzafava feels confident people want to keep the local police, he said the town board will likely schedule a public information meeting to further gage community support.

“If the town seems split, we’ll have a referendum and let the people decided,” the supervisor said, noting a vote would come in 2013 since

it’s too late to change ballots for the November election.

Garrison said the people at the town meeting did not represent a cross-section of the community. He believes many Moriah residents do question the value of the police department.

Garrison agrees a referendum is the only way to eliminate the Moriah PD. “This is not a decision for the town board,” Garrison said of the department’s future. “People need to tell us what they want.”

Scozzafava supports the Moriah Police Department.

“Our police are incredibly busy and do a great job,” Scozzafava said. “There’s a lot the public doesn’t see. They prevent a lot of problems from arising.

“Our department is stretched thin, but so are

the state police,” he added. “I’ve spoken to Capt. (John) Tibbitts and he’s told me the state police wouldn’t be able to pick up the slack if there was no Moriah police. If anything, a community our size needs more police protection, not less.”

Tibbitts is the New York State Police Zone 3 captain.

Moriah is one of four municipal police departments in the county. The others are in Ticonderoga, Lake Placid and Saranac Lake.

At one time there were two police departments in the community. Moriah and the village of Port Henry combined their departments in 1990. At that time the new department had five full-time and one part-time patrolmen. Because of budget limitations the Moriah PD now has two full-time officers.

Scholarships available to students PORT HENRY — The Ticonderoga Federal Credit Union is again offering local high school seniors the opportunity to win several scholarships toward tuition at a two or four-year accredited college.

TFCU student members will be competing with high school students from credit unions statewide for $1,000 Credit Union Association of New York awards. In addition, they will be competing regionally within the Adirondack District for a $500 scholarship, and locally among TFCU members for $500 scholarships. Three $500 TFCU scholarships were awarded in 2012.

To be eligible, students must be college-bound high school seniors at the time of application, attending college for the first time in the fall of 2013 and members of the Ticonderoga Federal Credit Union.

Applicants will be judged based upon their academic achievements, extracurricular and community activities and the quality of a written essay.

Applications will be judged by representatives of the New York State Credit Union League in Albany and winners will be announced in the second quarter of 2013.

Applications are available at Ticonderoga Federal Credit Union's home office located at 1178 NYS Rt. 9N, Ticonderoga and at their branch locations at 43 Meacham St., Port Henry and 7519 Court St., Elizabethtown.

Applications and instructions may also be printed from the credit union’s website. Visit http://www.tfcunow.com to download a 2013 application.

Applications must be returned to any TFCU office, ATTN: Pamela Nolan, no later than Jan. 18, 2013.

For more information, visit a TFCU office or contact a member service representative at 585-6725.

Recycled bridges save county taxpayer dollars Moriah, Ti, Schroon bridges need repair

Spooktacular Savings at the CLASSIFIED SUPERSTORE! Buy 3 Weeks in 1 Zone for $15 And Get a 4th Week FREE! ■ ■ ■ ■

By Keith Lobdell keith@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — Bridges have been one of the main themes for the Essex County Department of Public works over the past 12 months.

From the effects of the spring flooding of 2011, Tropical Storm Irene and deteriorating conditions, several bridges throughout the county have needed emergency and special attention.

Thankfully, according to DPW Superintendent Anthony LaVigne, New York state stepped up with a program that helped save the county hundreds of thousands of dollars.

The state started to offer inverset bridges to counties in need. Some of the pre-made spans were recycled pieces that formerly were used as overpasses for Northway exits.

LaVigne said the department first used the recycled bridges to fix a span of the Adirondack Loj Road in Lake Placid.

“The inverset bridges offered to the county at no cost,” LaVigne said. “The bridge was 15 years old and their design life was 70 years. Essex County transported the bridges to North Elba and Steven Miller construction took care of constructing the bridges. The end result was that we now have a two-lane bridge there with a savings of about 250,000 for using the reused bridge.“ LaVigne said that the success of the Loj bridge led the county to use the same inverset spans on the Hulbert Road Bridge in Lewis and Lacy Road Bridge in Keene, which both were damaged by Tropical Storm Irene. They also used an inverset recently to fix the Gouchie Road Bridge in Minerva.

“We just finished the Gouchie Road Bridge last week,” LaVigne said. “We saved two months’ construction time on each bridge. These are all state of the art and they have much lower maintenance costs.”

Supervisors said that they were pleased with the new option in bridge replacement.

“I just want to thank you for the work,” Minerva Supervisor Sue Montgomery-Corey said. “I could not believe how great the site looked. They took great care of it and they were great with communicating with the neighbors.”

“They did a great job in each of these areas and we are thankful for their work,” Keene Supervisor William Ferebee said.

“This is certainly a success story for our department,” LaVigne said. He added that they hope to continue their partnership with the state, but there are currently no other spans that are available for recycling.

During the Oct. 15 Public Works committee meeting, LaVigne said that there were more bridges that had been red flagged and deemed in need of repair by the state, including bridges in Keene, Schroon, Moriah and Ticonderoga, along with work on bridges in Moriah that were damaged by the spring 2011 flooding.

“How often do they inspect these bridges,” Ferebee asked.

“They inspect the bridges every other year unless they have an existing flag condition and then they inspect them every year,” LaVigne said.

October 27, 2012

The audacity of laughter F rom the top of Round Mountain in the Adirondacks, it can be easy to mentally drift away from some of the issues plaguing us on a national level.

I can sit there all day, watching as the breeze carries clouds over the ridgeline on the Dix Range. It seems so simple, so pure.

Those same clouds are rolling in from a southwesterly direction, riding a jet stream that has carried pollutants from areas like Ohio and Illinois and dumped nitric and sulfuric acid rain into Adirondack waterways, often killing the organisms that call them home.

It takes me back to the idea of a world community, an idea birthed from the notion that we all share the planet and should therefore be respectful stewards of it. And then I think of something that happened in August.

There was a moment during Mitt Romney’s acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention that I found particularly frightening, a moment that passed quickly but wasn’t completely ignored by the media.

Romney said: “President Obama promised to begin to slow the rise of the oceans and heal the planet...(long pause for laughter from the audience). My promise is to help you and your family.”

The last part of that statement, the one about helping families, has become a redundant, ill-defined chant for Romney, and is rendered forgettable due to its lack of coherent details. That first part, the one with the laughter, is what got me, and all I could wonder was: since when did healing the planet, our home, our provider, become funny?

Have Americans really become so smug, so self-absorbed that they honestly believe their actions have no effect on the Earth?

Science has become increasingly politicized, much to the chagrin of those of us who understand the fundamental need to use knowledge as a basis for making decisions that

will invariably affect our collective future. Simply put, intelligent decisions cannot be made based solely upon Democrat, Republican, Green or Libertarian entanglements.

The issue of climate change, of Romney’s risible rising oceans, is commonly dragged into political conversations. Let’s not forget that Romney himself backed up the notion of man-made climate change in 2011. Ah yes, the laughter. And what a distraction it is.

Whether you accept climate change or not, there is no denying that we are consistently doing things that are not good for the environment. Pumping smoke into the sky is not good for the air, which we breathe.

Pouring chemicals into the ground is not good for the soil, upon which all living things depend for sustenance. Dumping waste materials into our rivers is not good for the water, which we drink.

The reality is that people who fight against climate

change are really fighting against pollution, against pouring toxic chemicals into our air and waterways, against farming practices that are detrimental to the quality of the food we raise. These are all things that enter our bodies at some point, and therefore determine our own health.

People who advocate for different ways of thinking are not trying to destroy jobs or thrust our country backward—they are trying to create a dialog where we use scientific evidence to influence decisions whose outcomes will ultimately affect all of us. They are trying to show us that we have other options, ways to provide energy for our nation beyond our current, yet archaic, burn-drill-mine mentality.

Air pollution, cancer, toxic waste, tainted produce and meat aren’t quite as funny after they’ve infiltrated your own personal chemical makeup. Neither is acid rain funny, as we’ve seen in the Adirondacks. If you don’t want it in your own backyard, why put it in someone else’s?

There is a fundamental core behind environmental activism that I think we can all get behind—a need to protect our greatest resource, the planet. You know, the one we live on, the one our children will inherit. My mountain perch can only teach me so much about the people I share the earth with. The rest is up to them.

They're always watching In fact, fish were literally jumping out of the water, slashing and leaping in the pond’s small bays. I immediately recognized the melee as part of an annual ritual, where male brook trout begin to test their strength to complete the spawn.

On my first foray to the bay, I caught and released fish on nearly every cast. They were all large, hook-jawed males, resplendent in brilliant red, orange and white spawn colors. They were aggressive and not boat-shy, and they responded eagerly to nearly anything tossed their way. After an hour of pure angling madness, I packed up and headed off to test another nearby pond, with my shotgun at the ready. I was certain to find a grouse!

Four ponds and three long carries later, I had still not seen, or even heard a grouse stirring. It was as if the darn birds had evaporated from the local woods overnight.

However, as I approached the final pond on my route I

heard a bird flush in the thick spruce forest. I grabbed my shotgun, and left my boat behind as I slipped quietly into the nearby woods.

Up ahead, I heard a rustling and as I crouched to peer through the tangle of limbs and thick cover; I had a sense I was being watched.

Most woodland wanderers have experienced a similar situation; especially deer hunters who discover a big buck had been eyeballing them as the white flag disappears into the distance.

It is a difficult sensation to describe, but I just knew something had its eyes on me. Finally, I gave up on the understory and as I slowly stood up, my eyes focused on the observer.

Perched on a limb, less than 20 away, was the largest Barred Owl that I had ever seen. He rotated his head around, and glared at me. I flushed with embarrassment, as I had been sneaking through the forest, while under constant observation. It was to be the only flush of the day.

With my cover blown, I stood up to face my winged observer, as I fumbled for a camera. Fortunately, the old owl was willing to pose, and I was able to capture several nice shots. Later, while reviewing the images, it appeared the owl was sporting a wide smirk across its beak.

uring the waning days of trout season, I took advantage of the opportunity to combine some grouse hunting with a bit of angling.

I spent most of my time traveling alone, while wheeling a pack canoe along some old logging roads that connect a network of small, backwoods trout ponds north of Lake Clear.

Earlier in the week, I was startled by grouse that flushed regularly. It seemed the birds were bursting into the air around every bend in the trail.

Unfortunately, the only weapons I had available at the time were a 5 weight, flyrod and an ultralight spincasting rod. Neither was of much use, even though the grouse often took to the air within striking distance.

Since the grouse appeared so plentiful, I packed along a shotgun the following day, in hopes of mixing a little fowl with my fish.

Of course, the easiest method to assure there will be neither fish nor fowl available to a sportsman is to carry along the proper implements to harvest both. I probably would have had better luck with a slingshot!

On my first trip, which was about a half-mile portage, no grouse were flushed. However, as I approached the pond’s put-in, the trout were in the air.

Keith O’Connor, a veteran bowhunter who has taken 23 bucks over the past 33 years with a bow, harvested his first piebald deer on Oct. 10.

O’Connor said he was amazed to see the buck coming down the runway at Antwine Hill behind Crane Pond and nearly missed his opportunity for a shot out of excitement and sheer amazement at the sight of the multicolored buck. But he calmed himself and stopped him in a shooting lane he had brushed out earlier in the summer, and dropped the buck with a wellplaced shot.

The piebald condition is caused by a genetic defect that occurs in less than 1 percent of the deer population. It is characterized by brown and white spots, similar to a pinto horse.

Some deer, like Ethan’s, are nearly all white.

In comparison, albinism is the condition where an animal has no pigmentation at all.

A true albino can be told from a totally white pie-bald deer, because its eyes will be pink. This is because — with no pigmentation — the eye color

comes from the blood vessels in and behind the eye.

In wild populations approximately 1 in 50,000 whitetail deer are born albinos. Given the population in New York of about 1 million animals, that would mean only about 20 albinos exist in the wild.

At a frequency of less than 1 percent of the herd, piebald deer makeup about 9,000 or 10,000 animals of the 1 million deer in New York State.

According to DEC spokesman Dave Winchell, DEC receives reports of one or two piebald deer being taken by hunters in the Adirondacks each year.

Keith O’Connor, pictured above, took this piebald buck with a bow Oct. 10.

County

Three counties meet to discuss sex offender laws

By Keith Lobdell keith@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — Government officials from Clinton and Franklin County came together with peers from Essex County Oct. 22 to discuss the issue of sexual crimes, especially those involving children.

The sexual offenders laws task force committee was the brainchild of Jay Supervisor and county Chairman Randy Douglas after he heard from residents in his town concerned about registered sex offenders living near buildings in the AuSable Valley Central School District.

“There were some concerned citizens in different areas about how we share information and the rules and regulations in the sex offender registry laws,” Douglas said. “I think that it is important today that as we share information that we all come away from this realizing that we are doing what is best to keep our communities safe.”

Essex County Attorney Daniel Manning said that enacting new laws at a county level could prove a challenge with many being challenged on the basis of pre-emption.

“If the state of New York has enacted a law that already covers a subject matter and has decided to take control of that field, then the courts will not allow local municipalities to enact local laws that are accompanying the state law,” Manning said. “You would have a severe challenge to it.”

Essex County District Attorney Kristy Sprague took time to talk about the different levels of sexual offenders on the registry, saying that Level 1 offenders are the least likely to commit another offense, while Level 2 represented a moderate risk and Level 3 a severe risk.

Sprague added that she felt the laws needed to be updated to bring them into the electronic age.

“One of my main complaints is that this has never been updated to include cyber crimes,” she said. “There is nothing on here saying that someone used a computer to gain a relationship with a child. We are seeing a lot of that where texting and messaging is being used as the first contact. If there is one suggestion I would make today, it would be to change that scoring system to include cyber crimes.”

Sprague also said that there needs to be services in place to help victims, especially in cases where families are pitted against each other.

“The biggest thing is having services for the child so that they do continue to testify,” Sprague said. “Can you imagine being 6 years old standing up in front of a courtroom and testify to a bunch of strangers about being raped by someone you loved and then have your mother get up on that stand and testify against you?”

Elizabethtown Supervisor Margaret Bartley said that she had a new perspective after the meeting.

“I came in here thinking about where the sex offenders are living and that seems to be the least of our concerns,” Bartley said.

“It seems that you are saying that we need to look at the bigger issues and child advocacy.”

“The people that we are worried about are in the homes right now,” Beach said. “The red dots on the map are people that we are already watching.”

Essex County Sheriff Richard Cutting said that his office routinely makes patrols to watch out for registered offenders and make between six to eight arrests annually of those who have moved or changed their living circumstances without notifying the authorities.

Clinton County Sheriff Dave Favro also spoke about the Sex Offender Watch program which is offered in his county.

“We need to do everything that we can to help preserve the youth and keep them safe,” he said. “I think that there are a couple of things that we need to look at. I'm convinced that what we need to do as a society, collectively, is that we need to get together and we need to educate. We need to let the victims know before they are victims that this is wrong.

People spend a lot of time in their home, and they spend a lot of time on their computer. We have to hit them in their homes, where they are going to be.”

The discussion also involved local school administrators.

“This is the best first start for us,” AuSable Valley Superintendent Paul Savage said. “What people are hearing here is no different then what we are hearing. I think that this is a great start, and I don't think that we should stop. We need to keep this discussion open.”

“There have been strong partnerships that have been established over time that I saw through my work when I was in Clinton County,” current Elizabethtown-Lewis interim and former Peru Superintendent A. Paul Scott said. “It has been very helpful for us to be able to learn more through the partnerships that we have. We were appreciated that we were invited to be here to talk about this issue. I would encourage you based on what we have learned today to looking into the same type of partnership that there is in Clinton County.”

“One of the biggest things in my district is continuing to get the information to us so we can get the information out to the parents and continue to educate the students and parents,” Moriah Superintendent William Larrow said. “We need to continue to get funding that will allow us to bring programs into the school would be helpful for us.”
