Essex Co. sales tax will now be 8 percent

This Week IN NORTH CREEK

By Keith Lobdell keith@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN Ñ After years of lobbying the state, Essex County finally has a sales tax increase.

Members of the county Board of Supervisors voted 17-0 during a special meeting Aug. 26 to increase their share of the sales tax from 3.75 percent to 4.00 percent. The increase brings the total sales tax figure to 8.0 percent with state and county combined.

Westport Supervisor Dan Connell was unable to attend the meeting.

The change will go into effect Dec. 1.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo last week signed legislation allowing counties across the state to make the same increase to their sales tax, which County Manager Daniel Palmer said would reflect an added $2 million in revenue for Essex County. Ò I think that it is safe to say that this is something that is desperately needed,Ó Palmer said. “That figure represents about 12 percent of the tax levy that will now be raised through sales tax. It is the change you guys have been fighting for over the last four or five years.” Ò The amount that we will be taken in and the amount that equals on the tax levy is something that is important for people to know,Ó Elizabethtown Margaret Bartley said.

The increase will put Essex County on par with neighbors Clinton and Franklin County, CONTINUED ON PAGE 9

Randy Robare, of Lewis, directs traffic at a construction site along State Route 28N in the town of Newcomb Thursday, Aug. 22. Robare works for Reale Construction, of Ticonderoga, which is completing the project. This location was right near the Goodnow Mountain trailhead. The section of Route 28N between Long Lake and Newcomb has been notoriously in need of repairs, and thanks to a local YouTube video highlighting the problem in the spring, the state Department of Transportation was prompted to divert money from another project to help the town of Newcomb.

Gore to add four trails NORTH CREEK Ñ Gore Mountain has announced an exciting list of projects that guests should look for during the 2013/2014 winter season.

Extensive renovations to the childrenÕ s learning experience include the installation of a new 150Õ conveyor lift. Similar to moving walkways at airports, conveyors transport beginner skiers and riders uphill safely and easily. The new conveyor will be accessible from just outside the Kids Klub facility in the Northwoods Lodge. From the top of it, children can: a) ski back down; b) access the base of the Bear Cub Poma; c) board a second 100Õ conveyor; or d) explore the newly improved terrain garden offering gentle earthen features that help develop skills and shape turns. Meanwhile, the interior of the Kids Klub area is being expanded by approximately 30% and it will feature an improved registration and ticketing area.

A long-awaited deck for the Tannery Pub & Restaurant is in progress. Designed to seat 108 people with slopeside views, the deck will offer a welcome extension to the popular Tannery for enjoying food, drink, and live entertainment outdoors year-round.

A new cafŽ area located outside the Tannery Pub will serve specialty coffee drinks and morning treats, along with apr• s-ski foods and libations.

Four new trails will debut this winter. The largest trail expansion is the Ò Boreas Glades,Ó presenting an amazing mile-plus Burnt Ridge Mountain adventure.

Located between Ò Barkeater GladesÓ and the huge Ò SagamoreÓ trail, “Boreas” enters into a variety of firs and balsams before meeting up with the Northern Hardwood Forest and picturesque ledges, end-

The Northern White Cedar is amazing in its kindness and versatility: birds and small mammals feed on its seeds, and deer munch on it in the winter. An evergreen in the cypress family, it has fan-like branches, tiny cones, and leaves that are dark green on top and pale below. Cedar wood is light and strong and contains an aromatic chemical that is pleasant to people but shunned by insects. Ideal for a variety of construction purposes, including boats, fence www.exploringnature.org posts and roof shingles, it can survive wet conditions and ground contact for years.

ing on the Ò EagleÕ s NestÓ trail. Ò BoreasÓ is the Greek God of the North Wind associated with winter. It is also the name of a nearby river that flows into the Hudson, Gore Mountain’s water supply for snowmaking.

The Ò HedgesÓ trail will provide new access from the top of the Burnt Ridge Quad to the Ò TahawusÓ trail on the North Side. Ò HedgesÓ will facilitate smoother transitions around GoreÕ s four-mountain network of terrain.

Two other new glades will enhance Gore MountainÕ s ongoing redevelopment of the Historic North Creek Ski Bowl. Guests should look for the Ò Ridge Runner GladesÓ connecting Ò The Oak Ridge TrailÓ to Ò MoxhamÓ and the Ò Little Gore GladesÓ connecting the top of Ò Village SlopesÓ to the Hudson Chair lift. The lower portion of Ò MoxhamÓ was widened for better access into the North Creek Ski Bowl as well as making a better starting location for freestyle events.

Snowmaking enhancements include powerful tower-mounted fan guns in both the Saddle area above the entrance to Ò TwisterÓ and on Ò Cloud.Ó Additional pipe work, tower gun installations, and other reconfigurations that add to the strength and efficiency of the system are in place.

Earlier this summer, an 18-hole outdoor miniature golf course was added to GoreÕ s growing off-season operation. Several new community gardens, including a special rock labyrinth garden, make beautiful accompaniments to the interpretive walking trails and other summer attractions.

Another fine summer for Minerva Youth Program

By Mike Corey

newsenterprise@denpubs. com MINERVA Ñ The Town of Minerva Youth Program (year 2013) wrapped up its six-week summer of sun and excitement on Aug. 16 with a often noisy and swell fun morning of skits, songs, awards, and recognitions.

A good crowd of parents, guardians, friends, staff, and campers showed that they were certainly ready for a great morning of endings (and beginnings). The summer was great at beautiful Minerva Lake, with its excellent beach, fine canoe/sailboat launch, wonderful concession stand, and terrific atmosphere.

The weather was a little iffy sometimes, but the program dealt with it;. All three campout nights had great weather, which was truly a blessing.

All of these factors led to an entertaining and safe summer for the youth program campers.

The Minerva Youth Program (MYP) staff and support people did a wonderful job throughout the summer, keeping all the campers safe while allowing them to have great Ñ and sometimes unrelenting Ñ fun. The summer program has fun as its bottom line, and this summer was no different. The weather was not totally cooperative, but early on it was often difficult to get the campers out of the water when the time came to gather at the pavilion for trips home on the bus or in the family/friendÕ s car.

The following is a wrapup of the awards and recognitions that were given the morning of Aug. 16 at the Minerva Lake pavilion. After the Minerva Lake sailing program awards, Crazy Hat Day, Citizenship, and most improved swimmer awards were given out.

Crazy Hat Day, Aug. 15

Little Boys: Prettiest hat Ñ Elijah Robinson; Most original hat Ñ Dennis Galusha, Joseph Olcese (tie); Craziest hat Ñ Emmett Gelber Little Girls: Prettiest hat Ñ Caitlin Wamsley; Most Original Ñ Sophia Robinson; Craziest hat Ñ Katelyn Tennyson Middle Boys: Prettiest hat Ñ Henry Gelber; Most original hat Ñ Brent Tucker; Craziest hat Ñ Tristen Hitchcock Middle Girls: Prettiest hat Ñ Katie Mather (worn by Erin Hall); Most Original hat Ñ Maria Ordway; Craziest hat Ñ Dayna Studnicky Big Girls: Prettiest Ñ Cassie Pratt; Most Original Ñ Abagail Griffen; Craziest Ñ Sierra Galusha Special Awards: Tallest Hat Ñ Todd Tucker; Most Spirited Hat Ñ J.T. Stark Special Counselor Awards: Fishiest Ñ Murphy Harr;

Richest Ñ Haleigh Brannon; Prettiest Ñ Angela McCall; Oldest Ñ Jessica Hill; Most Combative Ñ Dustin Saville NOTE: As usual, the panel of judges did not have an easy time of it; the competition was indeed intense. The judges for the Crazy Hat Day contest were: John Paradis, Selina LeMay, and Sue Montgomery Corey.

The Minerva Youth Program Citizenship award is given to a camper in each morning group whose counselors decided was a good citizen throughout the summer program. This is often a particularly tough award to assign and very difficult to achieve. Award winners are campers who really are role models for others in terms of friendliness, helpfulness, and doing the right thing (when no one is looking). Citizenship means good character. Here are the award winners for this past summer:

Citizenship Awards

Little Girls: Abby Hamilton Little Boys: Dennis Galusha Middle Girls: Katie Mather Middle Boys: Dallas Olde n Big Girls: Cassie Pratt Big Boys: J.T. Stark

The Most Improved Swimmer is an award that goes to an individual from each of the six (actually seven) swim levels who consistently works hard to make improvements in his or her swimming skills during the summer. Not an easy choice.

Most Improved Swimmer

Level 1: Emma Wildermuth Level 2: August Wildermuth Level 3A: Jonathan Ball Level 3B: Kali Dugan Level 4: Grant Printy Level 5: Riley Dunkley Level 6: Cassie Pratt Water Safety Instructor (WSI) Lisa Fabin presented American Red Cross Swimming Level cards to all those campers who were able to successfully move up the swimming level ranks; StewartÕ s certificates went to all swimmers who did not advance.

All swimmers worked hard at their lessons this summer, and that is the important thing.

There is a lot of thanks to give in regard to the Minerva Youth Program for allowing it to enjoy another very successful summer at Minerva Lake.

Some folks might be missed in this attempt to provide thanks,

but if so, remember that your contributions were very welcome and necessary.

Above all, thanks to the great MYP staff, who worked so hard to provide very successful and incredibly important safe and fun days for the campers. Program staff this year included: Dakota Bennett, Haleigh Brannon, Abby Clickner, Mike Corey, Cameron Dubay, Ellen Eager, Lisa Fabin, , Murphy Harr, Angela McCall, A.J. Monthony, Jessica Hill, Bridgett Mather, Lena Mather, Stephanie Ovitt, Dustin Saville, Greg Wright, Karissa, Wright, and Mike Corey. Thank you, Ellen Eager, for stepping up toward the end of the program to take over as Medical Director when needed.

Many thanks go to the Town of Minerva lifeguards who throughout the summer did their job, and of course more; these fine lifeguards include Lynn Green, Liz Ordway, and Meghan LeViele. Those Ò Lost SwimmerÓ drills went very well, of course., especially when the water was warmish.

A very special thanks to Katie Smith and her staff (Adam

McCall and Amanda Wamsley) at The Stand for all their patience and generosity (and watchfulness).

Thanks to the Minerva Central School bus drivers (Coordinator Joe Gonyo, Bev West, and Jamie McNally) for all their help during the summer (and to MCS for allowing the MYP to use the school building on rainy days). Thanks, too, to the Town of Minerva Parks and Recreation and Highway Department staff Rob Kohrman, Paul Clickner, and Amanda Hayes for being there when they were needed.

A special thanks to the instructors for the sailing pro-

gram, which included 12 young sailors. Led by Ron Bruce with lots of help from Gus Stewart, Stoan Bush, Phil Wilson, and several folks from Hewitt Lake and the Minerva/ North Creek community, the program was a great success once more. The regatta held on Aug. 12 was very exciting, with three Little Bear sailboats and crew competing.

Thanks go to The Minerva Youth Commission, the Minerva Town Board, parents and guardians. And, a great thank you goes to the campers, who ranged this year from ages four to 15. You made the summer a fun one for everyone.

2013-14 Income Eligibility Guidelines for Free and Reduced Price Meals or Free Milk Local school districts, including the Johnsburg Central School and Minerva Central School, have announced a free and reduced price meal (Free Milk) policy for Johnsburg area school children.

Local school officials have adopted the following family eligibility criteria to assist them in determining eligibility:

SNAP/TANF/FDPIR Households: Households which currently include children who receive SNAP or Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF), or the Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR) must complete an application listing the childÕ s name, a SNAP, TANF, or FDPIR case number and the signature of an adult household member, or provide a Eligibility letter from the NYS Office of Temporary and Disability Assistance.

Children in the household with the same case number may be included on the same application. Separate applications are required for children in the same household with different case numbers. If the family does not list a SNAP, TANF, or FDPIR case number for all children for whom they are applying, then the application must contain all the information as required for Ò other householdsÓ as described below.

Other Households: Households with incomes the same or below the amount of money listed above for their family size may be eligible for and are urged to apply for free and/or reduced price meals (or free milk). They may do so by filling in the application forms sent home with a letter to parents. Additional copies are available at the principal’s office in each school. In Johnsburg, applications may be submitted any

time during the school year to Michael Markwica, Superintendent.

The information provided on the application will be confidential and will be used for determining eligibility. The names and eligibility status of participants may also be used for the allocation of funds to federal education programs such as Title I and National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), State health or State education programs, provided the State agency or local education agency administers the programs, and for federal, State or local means-tested nutrition programs with eligibility standards comparable to the NSLP. Eligibility information may also be released to programs authorized under the National School Lunch Act (NSLA) or the Child Nutrition Act (CNA). The release of information to any program or entity not specifically authorized by the NSLA will require a written consent statement from the parent or guardian.

The school district does, however, have the right to verify at any time during the school year the information on the application. If a parent does not give the school this information, the child/children will no longer be able to receive free or reduced price meals (free milk).

Foster children may also be eligible for these benefits.

A separate application for a foster child is no longer necessary. Foster children may be listed on the family application which must contain the foster childÕ s name, personal use income.

Under the provisions of the policy, the designated official will review applications and determine eligibility. If a parent is dissatisfied with the ruling of the designated official, he/ she may make a request either orally or in writing for a hearing to appeal the decision.

In Johnsburg, Mr. William Conner, President of the Board of Education, Johnsburg Central School, PO Box 380, North Creek, NY, has been designated as the Hearing Official.

Hearing procedures are outlined in the policy. However, prior to initiating the hearing procedure, the parent or School Food Authority may request a conference to provide an opportunity for the parent and official to discuss the situation, present information, and obtain an explanation of the data submitted in the application or the decisions rendered. The request for a conference shall not in any way prejudice or diminish the right to a fair hearing.

Only complete applications can be approved.

This includes complete and accurate information regarding: the SNAP, TANF, or FDPIR case number; the names of all household members; on an income application the social security number of the person who signs the form or an indication that the adult does not have one, and the amount and source of income received by each household member. In addition, the parent or guardian must sign the application form, certifying the information is true and correct.

Warren County elections from page 1

Hoopes submitted his petitions on Tuesday, the deadline.

In Horicon, Georgia A. McMeekin submitted petitions Monday, Aug. 19 to be an independent candidate for town board. She will be challenging long-term board members Frank Hill (Rep., Indpc.) and Robert Olson (Rep.) in a three-way race for two board seats. Georgia McMeekin is the wife of Gary McMeekin, the long-time Horicon town zoning officer who was fired last October by the town board after he was accused of altering documents submitted to the Adirondack Park Agency without approval from other town officials. Relatively new town board member Matthew J. Simpson (Rep., Indpc.) is running unchallenged for the position of town supervisor, with long-time supervisor Ralph Bentley slated for retirement. In Lake George, Town Supervisor Dennis Dickinson (Rep., Indpc.) is running unopposed; and in Stony Creek, long-time Supervisor Frank E. Thomas (Rep.) is also unchallenged.

But in neighboring Warrensburg, Town Supervisor Kevin Geraghty (Rep., Cons., Indpc.) Ñ who serves as the countyÕ s Chairman of the Board of Supervisors Ñ is being challenged by former town supervisor Maynard Baker Rep.,

www.newsenterprise.org Ind.), who gave Geraghty a formidable opposition for the post in 2009.

In Queensbury, itÕ s a political free-for-all, where thereÕ s a nine-way race for four at-large seats on the Warren County Board of Supervisors. Competing are incumbents David J. Strainer (Dem., Cons.), Matthew Sokol (Rep.), Mark Westcott (Rep., Cons., Ind.), and Bill Mason (Dem., Cons.), challenged by present Queensbury Town Supervisor Ron Montesi (Rep.,Ind.), W. Dean Boecher (Dem.), William Brown (Dem., Cons.), Rachel Seeber (Rep., Ind.), and Douglas N. Beaty (Rep., Ind.).

Also vying for posts on the county Board of Supervisors — Glens Falls Ward 4 seat — are: incumbent William A. Loeb (Dem., Workers, Ind.), challenged by James Brock (Rep., Cons, Indpc.).

For the position of Queensbury Town Supervisor, John Strough (Dem., Cons.) is unopposed.

For Queensbury Town board, Brian Clements (Rep., Cons., Indpc.) and Harrison Freer (Dem.) are seeking the open Ward 2 seat. For the open Ward 3 post, former board member Douglas K. Irish (Rep., Cons., Indpc.) is challenged by Richard F. Garrand Jr. (Dem.).

For a Ward 4 seat, competing are incumbent Tim Brewer (Rep., Indpc.) challenged by former at-large county supervisor William Van Ness (Rep.) and Jennifer Switzer (Dem.), who is the county EDC chief financial officer.

News Enterprise - 5

In Thurman, Town Supervisor Evelyn Wood (Rep., Dem., Cons. Indpc.) is challenged by former town supervisor John Haskell (Rep., Ind.) whose ability to assume office, if elected, has not yet been settled. Haskell was removed from his supervisor post after his 2008 conviction for Defrauding the Government, a felony. Wood has contended that Haskell is unable to hold office because of that conviction, and she has said she would challenge his ability to do so, if necessary. Legal experts are divided on the issue.

Haskell has won support among citizens this spring based on his proposals to reinstate funding for the embattled local ambulance squad and to restore municipal trash collection in town. Wood and the town board voted against funding the ambulance squad in late 2012 after the squad’s financial needs increased substantially, and regional emergency officials questioned the local agency’s financial viability.

Wood and the board also voted to discontinue municipal trash collection, based on the concept that local landowners who generated no trash were paying toward other residentsÕ trash collection and disposal. Retaining both the trash collection and funding for the ambulance corps would have prompted a tax increase of more than 20 percent in 2013, according to estimates.

Running for two seats on the Thurman Town Board are: incumbent Charles Bills (Rep.), challenged by contractor Mike

Eddy (Rep., Ind. ) who has voiced support for Haskell, and Daniel E. Smith (Rep., Ind.).

For Thurman Highway Superintendent, incumbent Patrick S. Wood (Rep.) is challenged

by Howard Cook (Rep., Ind.).

In Bolton, interim Town Clerk Jodi Connally (Rep., Ind.) is to be challenged for the permanent clerk post by Deanna L. Roessler (Rep.).

Connally was appointed interim clerk by the town board after the unexpected death this spring of beloved long-time Town Clerk Patricia Steele.

For Bolton Highway Superintendent, thereÕ s a three-way race, with the pending retirement of Tim Coon, whoÕ s held the post for years.

Seeking the post are William A. Sherman (Rep., Dem.), as well as Matthew R. Coon (Rep.) Ñ TimÕ s brother Ñ and Anton F. Cooper (Cons.)

In Hague, Democrats Mary Ann Eaton and Ginger Henry Keunzel are competing against incumbent Martin H. Fitzgerald II and Alvin B. Frasier, both Republicans, for two town board seats. Town Supervisor Edna Frasier (Rep.) faces no opposition.

In Lake Luzerne, Mark Mclain (Rep.) and William Barry McMahon (Rep.) are squaring off for a town board seat.

For county Judge & Surrogate, incumbent John S. Hall Jr. (Dem., Con., Indpc.) is challenged by Ted Wilson (Rep., Con., Indpc.).

The death toll from 9/11 continues to rise

O

n Sept. 11, 2001, 2,606 people were killed when terrorists dive bombed the twin towers in New York City, both inside and outside the buildings. Another 266 died aboard the four hijacked airliners.

But the real untold story is that a total of 4,252 people have actually perished as a result of the deadly attack Ñ and they are still dying today.

In the years since that devastating day, at least 1,400 first responders have died as a direct result of illnesses caused by the toxic cloud that engulfed lower Manhattan for months after the attack. An estimated 19,000 are now sick or dying. Thats the dirty little secret that politicians donÕ t want to talk about, and very few people even know about.

When the twin towers went down, uniformed first responders and civilians alike flocked to Ground Zero hoping to help in whatever way they could. State and Federal agencies, the National Guard and the Red Cross brought people in from around the country. The air, they were told, was safe. The head of the Environmental Protection Agency, Christine Todd Whitman herself, took to the airways to reassure people.

Lower Manhattan had to re-open for business Ñ thatÕ s where the stock market is after all.

Try to bring your old computer to the landfill and throw it away. You can’t. It’s against the law. Why? Because of all the chemicals and hazardous materials that are inside. Now picture the fact that every desk in every office in the twin towers had a computer on it, and they all burned in the fire after the towers fell, releasing toxic vapors that hung in the air for months.

Plus there was cement dust, asbestos, and

burned plastic. But the air was safe to breath, responders were told.

The first wave of illnesses and deaths following 9/11 were lung related. The second wave, which many experts warned about at the time, is cancer. Of the 19,000 sick responders, roughly 2,000 have a certified form of cancer. Many others have cancers that have not been officially recognized as being related to 9/11. And this doesnÕ t count an unknown number of people who fell ill or have died, but didnÕ t relate it to their time at Ground Zero.

In 2010 Congress grudgingly passed the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act, setting up a Victims Compensation Fund for responders, but not until billions of dollars were slashed from the fund in order to overcome a Republican filibuster.

October 3 is the deadline for registering with the Victims Compensation Fund. People who were at Ground Zero, whether they were first responders or civilian volunteers, are being urged to register with the program, even if they are not currently sick. Anyone who develops a 9/11-related illness on Oct. 4 who is not registered, will be entitled to nothing.

Of the 19,000 people registered with the VictimÕ s Compensation Fund, 12,000 are not from the tri-state area. There are 435 congressional districts in the United States, and 430 of them have at least one registered 9/11 responder.

This is a national problem, and one that is not going to go away no matter how much politicians wish to ignore it. Americans are still dying as a direct result of the 9/11 attacks, and more are likely to become sick as the years go by. ItÕ s not something we can afford to put in the rear view mirror and Notice:CandidateEndorsements hope it goes away.

Ramblings

P

By Evelyn Greene

icture newly laid black asphalt bulging up here and there, then green plants pushing on through and out to the light, ready to sprout up to six or eight feet high.

Who needs invaders from outer space when we have Japanese knotweed to try to eliminate? Whack and dig year after year and it just keeps coming back.

On Aug. 5 about 65 Japanese knotweed fighters met in North Creek to learn how to combat this invasive nuisance, better known as Ò Mexican bambooÓ in the Adirondacks. I needed inspiration as a North Creek Ò coordinatorÓ and I got it. Knotweed can send its rhizomes (a type of root/stem that can sprout new plants all along it) under two lane concrete roads and emerge ready to go on the other side. In England people who Ò plant or otherwise cause Japanese knotweed to grow in the wildÓ can be subject to fin es of $15,000 pounds or six months in jail! It is a terrible problem for home owners because it can destroy a foundation.

Drive in Vermont and on to even Nova Scotia as I did recently and you will see Fallopia japonica (formerly Polygonum cuspidata) lining the streams and rivers in untold numbers of acres. It is impossible for fishermen and other recreationists to get through the jungle to the water. Do we want that in the Adirondacks?

We still have a chance to fight it back using the right techniques.

Cutting it down once a year is worse than useless so donÕ t bother doing that. Mowing it by road crews just spreads it down the road because tiny pieces of the plant can sprout and grow. With weekly mowing for many months you probably can beat it, but you need a place accessible enough to mow completely.

However, when each stem is injected with the right herbicide at the right time, in the late summer and fall before frost, the herbicide is sent down into the rhizomes along with the nutrients the plant is storing for the next spring and 95% of the plants will

die. Usually a few sprouts will come up the next year or two and have to be sprayed individually at the same time of year, if the stems are less than finger size and too small to inject. Landowners can do this on their own property with the right equipment and herbicide but we have a professional in the area now who can treat knotweed through a supported program run by the Town of Inlet. Donations are needed and expected if your treatment is successful to be able to continue the effort. Google noknotweed.org for more information or you can call me if necessary at 251-3772.

There are many areas of Japanese knotweed even in the Adirondacks that are so huge that only a natural enemy would be able to control it, and scientists are studying a certain insect to see if it eats only this species of knotweed, a member of the Buckwheat family. Of course Japanese beetles like it, but no one wants more of those!

But another knotweed has me pretty excited because it is a very rare one that I found just below a new beaver dam. ItÕ s called CareyÕ s knotweed and the NY expert on the family has never seen a live specimen. To get there I canoed across a lake, carried a short way, then canoed across a pond in search of a different rare plant. Somehow I dredged up out of my failing memory that the botanist was looking for a knotweed with a hairy stem. So that was two rare plants, plus some beautiful paddling on a spectacular day, a good day of hunting.

An ongoing hunt: A friend who lives near Garnet Lake found a five inch swallowtail on a coneflower, one so heavy that the flower tipped down and made it difficult for the butterly to get at the nectar in the middle. It turned out to be the Giant Swallowtail, black and yellow with the tails totally yellow. Some were seen last year in the Adirondacks but most of us have never seen one.

As the caterpillars eat only prickly ash in the north, a plant we have never seen either, these must just be butterflies heading out and about after emerging from their chrysalises elsewhere. As prickly ash is in the citrus family, the caterpillars are considered pests in Florida. But even with the fast rate of warming we are having, especially in winter, it will be a while until these beautiful insects will be a problem!

ife has been divided into two major groups: Prokaryotes Ñ which are those organisms like bacteria and viruses that exist as single cells without organelles (tiny internal compartments bounded by a membrane), and Eukaryotes - comprising all the higher organisms (from amoebae to humans) that may exist either as single cells or as complex multicellular creatures like humans and whose cells have within them a variety of tiny but important compartments such as nuclei and mitochondria. Such organelles function as partially sealed-off compartments within which important metabolic processes and materials are segregated. More recently, a third category of organisms, called Archaea, has been described which has characteristics shared by both the above groups.

Among the eukaryotes is a single-celled organism named Galdieria sulphuraria. This organism is a member of a family of onecelled red algae that enjoy habitats that are very acid, very salty, and often very hot (up to 130 degrees Fahrenheit). Such habitats exist in volcanic hot springs and in some mining and manufacturing wastes. When such habitats also include high amounts arsenic, mercury and other toxic heavy metals, G. sulphuraria, which appears to have existed for at least a billion years, may be the only organism present. The name commonly applied to an organism capable of surviving and growing in such extreme habitats is Ò extremophile.Ó What makes G. sulphuraria so unusual, aside from its enjoy-

I wanted to become good at it because my brothers are and I love them with all my heart.Ó (Samuel James Porter) Ò I am good at dancing. I do not take dance class, but I will next year. I am good at it because I have been practicing. It is fun to dance. I do jazz, pop and break.

I wanted to be good at it so I could get money and be famous.Ó (Nicole Lynn Brown) Ò Something that IÕ m good at is horseback riding because it is fun. I became good at it by practicing. It was hard being good at it and I have fallen off, but that didnÕ t stop me from riding. I wanted to be good at it because my grandma is and she inspired me to do it. I love horseback riding and I love horses.Ó (Cassie Dunbar) Ò I am good at riding a dirt bike because my dad taught me how to ride. I practice a lot. I want to be good at it because if I am bored, I can go out and ride.Ó (Ethan Dunbar) Ò I am good a basketball because I can shoot hoops. I wanted to be good at it and I practiced.Ó (Ian Heid)

ment of such extreme environments, is its amazing metabolic versatility. It can extract energy from light as plants do, or it can extract energy from carbohydrates (for example, sugars) as we do, thus it can grow in either light or darkness, and it can also thrive with or without oxygen. In spite of its very acidic habitat it also keeps its internal environment at a neutral level of acidity just as our cells do. Most organisms, including humans, would be dead in a matter of minutes in the environments this hardy organism thrives in. For this reason G. sulphuria is a prime candidate for helping us clean up some of our very nasty and dangerous chemical wastes.

Recently, the genome of this remarkable species was sequenced. It was discovered that many of the genes that allow this organism to flourish in hostile environments appear to have come, not from the very slow processes of mutation and natural selection, but by a process called Ò horizontal gene transfer.Ó Horizontal gene transfer is what scientists do when they genetically engineer plants and animals such as was done when the gene for a toxin made by the bacteria B. thuringiensis (Bt for short) was inserted into corn to make it resistant to a variety of insect pests.

It has been known for many decades that bacteria and viruses are naturally capable of exchanging genes in this way. These mechanisms for rapidly inducing permanent genetic changes in an organism became known as Ò horizontal gene transferÓ in order to contrast it with genetic information transmitted Ò verticallyÓ from parent to offspring during reproduction. In the case of G. sulphuraria, many of the genes relevant to its ability to survive and multiply under extreme and varied conditions appear to have come from both bacteria and fungi, and perhaps even some from viruses, by means of horizontal gene transfer. Thus genetic engineering has been a process known to nature millennia before we humans mastered the necessary techniques.

Sales tax

from page 1 which were already imposing the 4 percent county sales tax (8 percent total with the state share) and will help the county make up for lost revenue from other state and federal funds.

“Since 2008, the county has lost approximately $4.5 million in revenue sources from state and federal funds,Ó Palmer said. Ò Essex County is a tourism-driven county. We have over a million visitors that come in on an annual basis. This increase is an opportunity to collect more revenue from those visitors.Ó County Attorney Dan Manning said vendors in the county would be notified through mail of the change as well as through advertising.

Some supervisors expressed their approval for the resolution before voting. Ò A tax is a tax, but this is certainly not as regressive as property tax is,Ó Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafava said. Ò I am sure none of us want to impose an additional tax, but this is a much more fair way to do so.Ó Ò I canÕ t ever remember personally saying that I would rather go to this restaurant and eat because it is only at 7.75 percent instead of 8,” Newcomb Supervisor George Canon said. Ò This is not something that Gov. Cuomo took lightly,Ó Board Chair and Jay Supervisor Randy Douglas said. Ò This is one that we felt that home rule was important. He reached out to truly understand what this meant to small communities like ours.Ó Douglas also thanked the local state representatives for helping to get the measure signed by Cuomo, including Sen. Betty Little, Assemblyman Dan Stec and former Assemblywoman Teresa Sayward. He also thanked Manning, Palmer and County Treasurer Michael Diskin for their involvement.

tahawus moved to Newcomb 50 years ago

watching a thunderstorm ... and mom kind of fretting about if you had to get out of here. And you never went out of town without contacting all your friends, all your neighbors or anybody else.Ó Yet for kids, there was plenty to do. Ò We always played ball before dinner in the middle of the road,Ó Strothenke said. Ò There would be 30 kids. She lived just down the street from us. We all got together in the evening and all day long.Ó Ò Great hide and seeks,Ó Rockwood said. Ò Hopscotch,Ó Strothenke said. Ò In the wintertime, weÕ d slide down the hill, up and down, up and down, up and down.Ó

By Andy Flynn

andy@denpubs.com NEWCOMB Ñ Fifty years ago, the National Lead company moved its workforce from the mining village of Tahawus 10 miles away, to the village of Newcomb. There was a rich vein of titanium ore under those homes, and it was needed to keep the mine open.

Yet relocating dozens of buildings was the easy part; integrating a tight-knit community into another one was the real challenge.

Route 28N runs through the hamlet of Newcomb. From one end to the other Ñ about 5 miles Ñ this is known as the longest Main Street in the Adirondacks. ItÕ s actually 3 miles from the Newcomb Town Hall, in what they called old Newcomb, to the corner of Adams Lane, in what became new Newcomb. This is the Winebrook Hills development, an 80-acre tract National Lead purchased to create a suburb of sorts. ItÕ s where the mining company relocated the village of Tahawus, including 67 houses, five apartment buildings, two churches and a general store.

Newcomb Town Supervisor George Canon has a unique perspective on the Tahawus move.

He was working there 50 years ago. Ò ThereÕ s a story almost in its own right about moving to Newcomb,Ó Canon said. Ò Certainly the company spent several hundred thousand dollars to put in the water and sewer, bought the land, did the roads. Obviously they had a self-protection interest in mind. It was in the mid Ô 60s and the war was starting to pop good, and business was booming up there. They had to protect their workforce somehow, and thatÕ s how they did it, rather than just saying Ô WeÕ re out of business here in Tahawus. YouÕ re out on your own.Õ Now a lot of them didnÕ t come to Winebrook. Some went to Long Lake, some went to Schroon, some went to Minerva. They went all over the place, but they made it pretty easy to move over to here, too, to keep their workforce intact.Ó National Lead also moved workers out of the Upper Works. ThatÕ s where Canon lived in 1963. Soon, he, too, was settling down in Winebrook Hills, alongside former Tahawus residents. Ò I hated the thought of having to move out. For whatever reason, call it stubbornness or whatever, I didnÕ t go anywhere near much of the move. Obviously IÕ d see it as I went to work every day, but my place was at the Upper Works. I think I stayed at the Upper Works a year after the village was moved, until they finally forced me out and said you canÕ t stay here anymore, weÕ re closing the place up. And then I moved over to the apartments in Winebrook while they were finishing up my house down there on Marcy Lane.Ó Seventy-eight-year-old Leonard Gereau was born just up the highway in 1935, on the Boreas Road. He and his parents moved into a small house in the village of Tahawus around 1942, when the mine officially opened. He left in 1955, and his childhood home was relocated to Winebrook Hills in 1963. ItÕ s still there today on Marcy Lane. And his parents had strong feelings about moving to Newcomb. Ò They didnÕ t like it,Ó Gereau said. Ò They enjoyed the Tahawus area, particularly fishing and the Sanford Lake Rod and Gun Club, and it was a total adjustment. My dad then ended up retiring in the Ô 60s. It was kind of an overnight thing. One day they were living in Tahawus and the next day theyÕ re living here in Newcomb.

So it was an abrupt change in their lives and the social part of it as well because the homes here were not set up the same way they were in Tahawus. So their next door neighbor here in Winebrook Hills was different than next door

The move

Former Tahawus resident Leonard Gereau shows Newcomb Supervisor George Canon a Post-Star article his son, John Gereau, wrote in 2001 about the 1963 Tahawus move to Newcomb. Leonard is writing on a book about life in the National Lead mining community of Tahawus in the 1940s and 1950s. John is now managing editor of Denton Publications.

neighbors in Tahawus.Ó In Tahawus, people rented their homes for about $25 a month. In Winebrook Hills, National Lead sold the homes to their workers.

For Gereau, his parentsÕ tiny home on Marcy Lane brought back a childhood memory from January 1953. Ò My fatherÕ s sister in Glens Falls died at a very young age and left seven children,Ó Gereau said. Ò He took two of the boys, Dick Lashway and Jim Lashway, to help out his sisterÕ s family. And there was my brother Ed and my brother Jim and myself, three boys already, and then two more boys. So five boys living in this house. And that was a period of history when polio existed ... And I recall my mom and dad keeping the five boys in this house for the month of January in 1953. And that was a very difficult time because we enjoyed fighting.”

Not all the homes were small, but residents who lived in the small ones made the best of it.

Some, like the Gereaus, added bedrooms in the space allotted. Ò Originally downstairs there were only two (bedrooms), and my dad put two in the attic area,Ó Gereau said. Ò So thatÕ s where we were as boys; we slept upstairs in the attic.Ó

Life in Tahawus

At the Newcomb Historical Society Museum, two workers were watching a video of the 1963 move on a computer screen. It’s color film set to music on a DVD. Sally Rockwood and Jean Strothenke grew up down the street from each other in Tahawus. Rockwood lived in there until she was 13, and Strothenke until she was 15. Ò Ooh, somebody had a garage,Ó Strothenke said, pointing to the computer screen. Ò We sure didnÕ t.Ó Ò This is in Newcomb,Ó Rockwood said.

The garages were built after the move, as they didnÕ t have garages in Tahawus.

Asked if they had street names in Tahawus like they do in Winebrook Hills, Rockwood said yes. Both women lived down the street from each other on Lakeside Drive. Ò Sanford Lake,Ó Strothenke said. Ò We were right on the lake ... right near the sewer plant.

I canÕ t believe we played at that damn place.

And it was great fishing right there, the sewer plant.Ó Ò I wonder why,Ó Rockwood said.

The video showed an image of the YMCA,

Village of Tahawus photo by Newcomb Historical Society

which opened in 1948. It wasn’t moved to Newcomb. Instead, it was re-purposed for other mining operations after the residents left. Ò That was probably one of the biggest disappointments or disadvantages for the kids here that moved here,Ó Strothenke said. Ò Not just the kids because the Y was the center of everything for adults and children,Ó Rockwood said. Ò There was always something going on, whether it was a mother-daughter banquet or a kidsÕ basketball game or movies for 10 cents.Ó Ò We didnÕ t have a television, so if you wanted to watch TV, you went to the Y,Ó Strothenke said. Ò And we didnÕ t have a phone. We never had a phone. We had a phone when I was 16 when we moved to North Hudson.Ó Ò You never had a phone in Tahawus?Ó Rockwood asked. Ò No, never had a phone,Ó Strothenke said. Ò And if you wanted to see a movie, the Y was where you saw it. Friday nights, 10 cents a movie. And you grabbed your chair and set it up in the gym. It was wonderful.Ó With the YMCA lost for good, former Tahawus residents were left with a void in their social activities at Winebrook Hills. Ò There was kind of an empty hole there,Ó Rockwood said. “The school filled in quite a bit of it because we had quite a few good teams.Ó Supervisor Canon remembered the YMCA as the center of the Tahawus community. Ò I think the biggest thing about Tahawus was the camaraderie and the sense of almost isolation with the Y,Ó Canon said. Ò We had everything we wanted. We didnÕ t need to go outside.

We had hunting and fishing, camping. You had basketball, you had baseball. The Y had everything in it. You had a television room. You had a library. You had a weight room. You had a gym.

You had a pool. You had bowling.Ó In Tahawus, the residents didnÕ t really have much to worry about, as far as keeping up their homes. After all, the company owned them. Ò The town took awfully good care of us, though. The town did our garbage, the town stained our houses every five years,” Strothenke said.

Isolation was an issue for Tahawus families. Ò One thing I remember my mother talking about was there was only one road in and out,Ó Rockwood said. Ò That was rather frightening sometimes. I can remember sitting on the porch

The big move began in August 1963 and lasted about six months. Newcomb residents would line the highway, for hours, watching the buildings being towed to their new foundations in Winebrook Hills. Ò The old wiveÕ s tale is that Ñ and I suspect it did happen Ñ that everything was all ready to roll here in Newcomb, everything was ready to tie in,Ó Canon said. Ò And the guy got up in Tahawus, ate his breakfast, went into the mines.

And theyÕ d come in, picked up his (house), brought it over, set it on the foundation, tied in the utilities, and when the whistle blew at 4:30, he drove over here to Newcomb, sat in the same seat and ate his supper. Now I canÕ t say that happened a lot, but I do believe it did happen.Ó When Tahawus moved, it essentially doubled the size of NewcombÕ s population. And it took more than a decade for residents to adjust, on both sides of the Hudson River. Ò And there was a tension between old Newcomb, and now youÕ ve got a hundred houses of families that didnÕ t pay any taxes, had very low living expenses, paid very little attention to the politics of life,Ó Canon said. Ò Now they come over here, these hundred houses, trying to integrate with the other hundred houses in what I always refer to as old Newcomb and there was some tension in the air.Ó Tension stemmed from a number of factors.

Education. There was a school at Tahawus for grades K through 3, so an addition had to be built for the new students. Plus, the Tahawus and Newcomb athletes vied for starting lineups. Health care. A proposal by National Lead to build a medical center split the community and was never constructed. Politics. Winebrook residents began replacing longtime politicians in old Newcomb. And Religion. The St. Therese Catholic Church was moved from Tahawus to Winebrook. Ò That was another bone of contention, because when they moved the Catholic Church down here, they closed up the Catholic Church that had been in existence and use down across from the bar, down next to the Santanoni Road,Ó Canon said. Ò And that didnÕ t go over too big with some of your Catholics here in Newcomb that had been using that church forever. Another contentious issue.Ó Soon after Winebrook Hills filled up, community leaders formed the Lions Club, mainly to bring old Newcomb and new Newcomb together. And, in many ways, it worked. They built a baseball diamond, a skating rink and a playground. Supervisor Canon is one of two founding members who are still around. And heÕ s still on Marcy Lane, living among the many houses that came to Newcomb 50 years ago from Tahawus.

Today, National Lead still owns the land where the community of Tahawus once stood.

Much of the property is filled in with tailings and is unrecognizable when compared to 1963.

The mine closed in the late 1980s, and the buildings that were left in 1963, like the YMCA, are long gone. Only memories remain.
