David and Linda Levandowski. Linda does not want another family to experience the pain of losing a child to suicide.

TREADWELL — Joshua DuFault returned home from the movies his normal, happy self. That night, he locked himself in his bedroom and hanged himself from his closet door, a little more than two months ago. “He told people, but no one told us,” said Linda Levandowski. Families who have lost loved ones to suicide wonder why, question themselves and are often riddled with guilt. They don’t want another family to go through what they went through and stress open communication within the family and society as a whole. The stigma of suicide only keeps it and mental illness, which is often associated with suicide, in the dark. This does not help

anyone, and may in fact result in more lives lost. “I just lost my son two months ago,” said Levandowski. DuFault had been in trouble before and was worried about getting into trouble again. He texted friends, telling them he was scared and planned to take his own life. “He told people,” Levandowski said, “but no one told us.” At home that night after the movies, she sensed something was wrong, but when she went to check on him, the door was locked. No one answered when she knocked, and she searched the house but could not find him anywhere. Levandowski called 911 and went outside and peered through the bedroom window. She saw his hat and phone.

PLATTSBURGH – No one spoke up, for or against the budget increase. Clinton County Legislators unanimously agreed to help ease some of Clinton Community College’s fiscal woes. The lawmakers approved an additional $89,000 for CCC, bringing the county’s total contribution to the college to $2,465,040 for 2012-13. Clinton Community College President John Jablonski had requested the additional funds during a presentation to the County Finance Committee on Aug. 8.

Labor Day celebration? Who do we fear most? O American workers face difficult times

merica will celebrate Labor Day this Monday, but expect the party to be muted. These are tough times for American workers. Labor Day is a federal holiday observed on the first Monday in September that celebrates the economic and social contributions of workers. It became a federal holiday in 1894. Ironically, the legislation that declared the observance came six days after the famed Pullman Strike, during which a number of striking workers were killed by U.S. military and U.S. Marshals. Fearful of greater conflict, the legislation making Labor Day a national holiday was rushed through Congress unanimously and signed into law by President Grover Cleveland in an attempt to appease the labor force. Fortunately American workers aren’t being shot today, but things are tough. The ongoing presidential campaign is quick to remind us national unemployment is above 8 percent. That’s a sad number, but it’s not the number we should be most concerned about. According to the United States Federal Reserve middle class wealth — the value of assets such as homes, automobiles and stocks minus any debt — dropped 40 percent between 2007 and 2010. Median middle class income fell nearly 8 percent in 2010 alone. This during a time when the cost of everything from food to housing to fuel to education is soaring. The middle class happens to be the vast majority of the American labor pool. The typical American worker now has less wealth than 20 years ago. That’s nothing to celebrate. By the way, the wealthiest families’ median net worth rose slightly during the same time period.

The “One Percent,” as the Occupy Wall Street movement coined the nation’s financial elite, call such comparisons class warfare — while they contribute money to politicians determined to roll back workers’ rights. Look at Wisconsin, Indiana, Ohio, even New York. Are any workers celebrating New York’s new Tier 6 retirement plan this Labor Day? Winners get to write history, which probably accounts for the fact many seem to blame the recession on workers, particularly public employees, apparently forgetting the bankers, Wall Street managers and greedy business people who pushed our economy to the brink of collapse. They cite employee salaries and benefits that taxpayers and businesses can no longer afford. Union workers have been forced to make salary and benefit concessions. Non-union laborers have simply had to accept cuts to their pay and benefits. Workers are told they’re lucky to have jobs at all. There was a time in America when workers earned a living and respect by doing their jobs. Day-by-day, yearby-year the American labor force did its part and was rewarded with an improved quality of life. Those days are gone, at least for now. Workers are still expected to do their jobs every day, but for less pay and less respect. This Labor Day let’s do more than attend a parade or have a cook out. Let’s take a moment to acknowledge the difficulties encountered by American workers and thank them for continuing to do the job in the face of great adversity.

ver the next two weeks we’ll have the opportunity to hear the plans both presidential nominees and their respective parties have for our nation. As the accusations, truth twisting spin and political posturing takes place we can only hope that those who are undecided can find the information they need to reach a wise decision. One not reached from a position of fear, anger nor built on lies, but instead one made from sound facts and realistic hopes. This nation has been blessed over time with the right leadership at just the right time to guide the country through very difficult times. We can only hope that once again the nation can come together and get behind a plan that begins to turn things around. Certainly in my lifetime I know of no other time as critical as the one we currently face. Our national identity and many of the principles we’ve held closely in the past seem to be brushed aside in favor of self wants. Far too many are treating this election like a sporting event more than making a life altering choice. With so much at stake I wonder what we fear more in the coming election — that the “wrong side” will lead the nation back to security and prosperity receiving all the credit or that the “right side” will unleash all the negatives we heard from the other side and push the nation farther into debt and further into despair? If the contest is going to be about anything meaningful, it should be about how we are going to correct the nation’s finances, which presents a grave danger to American power and prosperity. The bi-partisan Bowles-Simpson plan offered solutions last year, but will either candidate be willing to address the issues in the same bipartisan manner that all Americans and both parties can get behind? The bipartisan commission of 18 members, including six senators and six representatives, tried to address the country's fiscal challenges, but Republican VP nominee Paul Ryan refused to support the majority's findings and President Obama also declined to pursue the suggested policies. If the solution is that radioactive and our current leaders refuse to even touch it what will it take for the nation to come to grips with these issues? Can anyone see a path to resolving these financial issues or will both camps simply retreat to their extreme political bases with neither side giving an inch, thus putting America’s future on the line while they play tug-of-war? David Wessel, a Wall Street Journal columnist, recently released a book titled "Red Ink," a handy new guide to understanding the politics of the federal budget. While nobody loves the cost of government, everybody

cherishes the things it specifically does for them. Wessel sums up the politics this way: "These diverse financial Dan Alexander arrangements have one Thoughts from thing in common: at the Behind the Pressline end of the pipeline is some real American person who is getting a check or a promise. Most are convinced due to their circumstances they deserve the money and/or the promise granted by Uncle Sam." On the other side of the ledger from out of control government spending is the lost income from billions of dollars in tax deductions, exemptions and loopholes, for the rich that they too are convinced they rightfully deserve. Such tax bennies are no easier to do away with than reducing beloved spending programs: Congress and presidents know full well seriously addressing both sides of the ledger — spending and taxes — is the only way to correct the course, but until a true leader steps up and makes a convincing case to the American public that both spending and taxes must be a part of the solution, each side will play to fears and cheers of their immediate constituency and the day of reckoning is pushed farther out into the future. It is for that reason that many people believe the day of reckoning should be addressed now without waiting until the issue is so massive the solutions will be far more costly and painful. With the US debt now nearing $16 trillion and the debt per taxpayer at about $140,000 how much longer can we go on allowing our president and Congress to ignore this crisis? It’s painfully clear neither side can solve the problem alone, but neither is prepared to work together and until that happens, nothing will happen except what we should really be fearing. America has many problems and the national economy, while topping the list, is but one of the hot buttons in this year’s election. So listen closely over the next two weeks and keep an open mind. Discount the mudslinging, ignore the vicious attack ads and listen closely for what you would consider a reasonable solution to break the stalemate. But remember, only when the plan is equally painful to all will there be something of value on the table and my greatest fear, one I hope is unfounded, is that neither side is prepared to go that far.

North Countryman - 5

A little less pain in the world would be a good thing S omeone recently said to me, “I can understand where Jane is coming from,” in response to Jane expressing she was in pain. It was because of this understanding that the someone approved of Jane’s pain. Another someone said, “I don’t feel sorry for her,” in response to another Jane expressing pain over a situation the someone didn’t believe should cause pain. In reality, their approval and disapproval doesn’t make the pain being felt a reality or a myth. The pain exists regardless. Someone else told me, “It’s freedom of speech. You can’t let words hurt you.” Maybe words don’t hurt that someone, but he or she doesn’t represent the entire race of human beings. What is it with rationalizing pain? We don’t need to understand or approve of it for it to exist. In fact, it doesn’t need to go any further than an expression of pain for it to be clear it exists in that moment. I’ve got a bright light bulb for

everyone: The only thing anyone needs to relate to pain is to have been in pain, in any of its form, themselves. If you have ever been in pain, then that is all that is required to understand it, relate to it and empathize with it. Moving beyond there, dissecting it, trying to force it away by saying something should or shouldn’t cause pain is ignorant and cruel. We all experience it differently. Different things hurt or do not hurt different people. But if someone says, “I am in pain,” then stop right there, because since you have felt pain, then you can empathize and can verify its existence, again, not that you are required or ever needed to do so. I am confident the person in pain can do this. Let’s discuss pain briefly. Researchers from the University of Michigan, Columbia University and the University of Colorado found that when it is in the processing stage, the brain makes little distinction between physical and emotional or psychological pain. So a punch is, say, processed the same as something that would be considered an emotional assault.

Stephen Bartlett

From the Editor’s Desk It gets better. In an article published in Psychological Science, researchers indicated that emotional pain is basically worse than physical pain, not during the processing stage but in terms of the lasting impact. Dr. Kip Williams from Purdue said, “While both types of pain can hurt very much at the time they occur, social pain has the unique ability to come back over and over again, whereas physical pain lingers only as an awareness that it

was indeed at one time painful.” Free speech shouldn’t be used to inflict pain, maliciously, or not, in some cases. If you really examine it, one could say that for an intelligent individual, words are his or her tools or weapon, able to be wielded in intensely hurtful ways without the worry of getting into trouble. For a less intelligent person who is strong, maybe the physical is that individual’s only tool or weapon, except he or she might not use it for fear of getting in trouble, even though studies show the person inflicting emotional pain is actually causing more harm. I say don’t use either, though the existing system does seem sort of backwards and unfair. Pain is pain. I mean, yes, if someone tells us it hurts that person when we breathe, well, that is going to be a difficult pain to remedy. I guess I’d just stay away from the person. But often, we refuse to recognize pain, let alone alleviate it for someone, because after we go through our rationalizing process, we determine the pain should not exist. That is unfair, cruel and basically like

looking at all the evidence out there and saying, “The world is flat.” If we do decide, in our infinite wisdom, to recognize it, the next step would be doing something about it. Obviously that will be difficult and/or impossible at times, but in many instances it simply involves a change in language, ignoring that something might not bother us in a given situation and lending a hand or a hug, and standing up for someone even when we don’t understand or agree with the reason that person is in pain. An important thing to remember too, is that often, when someone’s pain triggers a defensive reaction in us, we should look within and examine ourselves, because while not always, that is a strong indicator we are guilty of something. Pain is pain, and I don’t know about you, but I’d like to see less of it in the world. And let’s be real, everyone who is ignorant in one moment, wants their pain relieved when they are experiencing it. Reach Editor Stephen Bartlett at stephen@denpubs.com.

Our life coaches, Style and Substance: Terms of endearment Dear Style & Substance:

was recently called “sweetheart” by a male acquaintance on the street in front of my office and was somehow thrilled by it. Other times when someone calls me “hon,” I am appalled! What is your take on using these terms with friends, family, colleagues and acquaintances? Terms of endearment….are they real, personal or habit? The thrill or discomfort you feel in these situations has either the effect of: he really is fond of me or strong ties to a past negative memory. There was a time when women were routinely called “hon”, “sweetheart”, and “doll” as throw away terms possibly to demean, or because the contributions of women were not valued either in the community, workplace, or home. The intention of the speaker makes all the difference in the reaction. Somehow if the term is used solely with you, it has a more powerful impact! The question then becomes, how do we respond when called sweetheart or honey in an oh-so flattering or not so flattering way? style & substance can surely save the day and solve the problem! Your response should be impactful and a bit jaunty. Be confident, look the speaker straight in the eye, and offer a brief yet witty comeback. For example, “Bob, you look cute as a button today.” Or you can try something a bit more direct, “Hello, I’m Sally (or Michele!), you must have me confused with your other friend, Honey.” Receiving it with a smile and saying, “that really made my day” can also be a gracious response. On the street is a much different situation than in the office; in which case the most important points – responding with style and not anger, being confident and purposeful,

and holding yourself with poise. A look can say it all; showing surprise and a “clearly you didn’t mean to say that” look in the office is a good way to start. You will need to be more direct should it continue. It is tricky, as you don’t want to leave yourself vulnerable by letting too much emotion hang out. It can be as simple as saying, “I feel disrespected by you when you call me that, and surely you didn’t mean to have that effect.” I (Michele) recently spent time with my five year old niece. She and I were chatting about school and she then ran outside to play with her brother. She flew out the door with me calling behind her, “be careful lovey!” A few minutes later she came back inside and said, “You called me lovey, I like that.” She has decided that is what I am to call her from this day forward, not every time, but at least once or twice whenever we have a conversation. She understands the power of sweet talk. Any term of endearment has the power to pull at deep emotion. No matter how young or old we are, we like to be appreciated. What we are trying to say, is the body language and humor of the speaker can give us clues to the real meaning. Some men and women like to naturally tease and in this context it is quite harmless. It is all about how we receive it and what we choose to do from there.

obin is a gorgeous cat that has traveled all the way from Las Vegas! This young cat was a stray in Las Vegas, Nevada and a lovely couple took him in. Unfortunately, the older and less playful older cats in residence wouldn't accept him and it wasn't a good fit. At first Robin was very leery of the other cats in the cat colony, but he quickly settled in and is doing very well. Robin just loves to be around people. He is very affectionate, and he loves to laze around in the sun. Won't you consider giving this boy a home where he can feel safe and secure? Robin is current on vaccinations, altered and has tested negative for FeLV, FIV and Heart Worm.

New volunteer center will benefit entire region By Stephen Bartlett

stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Even a quick glance around the country reveals an abundance of negative dialogue, Congressman Bill Owens said. Thankfully, things like the North Country Regional Volunteer Center speak to the positive aspects of the American personality, he said. “This is a fascinating concept,” Owens said at the United Way of the Adirondack Region for the official announcement of the North Country Regional Volunteer Center. “This is important,” Owens said. The 24-hour web site will help connect volunteers with opportunities and provide organizations with a venue to post their needs. “Volunteering is a huge help to non-profits, and it is a big part of the United Way mission,” said Larry Pickreign II, Outreach Coordinator for the United Way of the Adirondack Region. “Most people don’t volunteer because they have never been asked.” The primary focus of the volunteer center is to engage volunteers and solve community issues. The goal is to include all service organizations in their activities as well as provide support to community organizations throughout the state. The North Country Regional Volunteer Center encompasses Clinton, Essex, Franklin, Hamilton, Jefferson, Lewis and St. Lawrence counties. The center fortifies the system for areawide data collection that enhances advocacy efforts, case statements for founders and recruitment of volunteers. The web-based volunteer center matches registered volunteers with non-profit agencies that have volunteer opportunities. Volunteers and agencies can register at www.northcountryvolunteer.org. “Please visit the web site and check it out,”

Pickreign said. Funds for the center came from a grant established by the New York State Commission on National and Community Service. There are 10 regional volunteer centers throughout the state. Many agencies need volunteers, and prior to this, when someone called United Way, their name was taken with hopes they could be matched up with an organization. Prior to the news conference, the United Way hosted a training with 40 agencies ready and willing to sign up for the free service.

“We want to get a little over 7,000 new volunteers per year for our region,” said Kathy Snow, director of development for the United Way of the Adirondack Region. That is important as New York currently ranks 51st in the nation in volunteerism, though part of that is due to the lack of data collection. The new site will also generate a report detailing volunteer hours and number of volunteers, something that will be useful when writing grants. Statewide, the sites aim to inspire 1 mil-

lion new volunteers in three years. “That is one effort to reduce the myth,” said Hillarie Logan-Dechene, director of philanthropy at the Wild Center in Tupper Lake. The new site is a great way to celebrate volunteerism, said United Way of the Adirondack Region Executive Director John Barnardi. “We know volunteerism is alive and well in New York, and while we will collect data, the heart of it is to celebrate volunteerism.”

Bombardier moving forward with significant cash award stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Bombardier Transportation is moving forward with its nearly $25 million expansion project in Plattsburgh with a little help from the North Country Regional Economic Development Council. The expansion project was awarded $2.5 million through the Regional Council initiative as a priority project. The project is expected to create 100 new jobs and retain 288 existing positions. “With the support of a $2.5 million grant from the Regional Council, Bombardier Transportation is investing ten times that amount in our state, creating and retaining nearly 400 jobs for the North Country,” said Gov. Andrew Cuomo. The scope of the transformational investment by Bombardier and New York creates a ripple across the region with construction and manufacturing jobs spurring growth in other areas of the North Country economy, said Tony Collins, co-chair of the North Country Regional Development Council. The transportation-equipment industry was identified as key to building regional strategies to support manufacturers to compete in the global marketplace, he said. “Our transit equipment manufacturers and talented workforce in this sector are well-positioned to demonstrate their preeminence and take full advantage of the global trends in transportation.” Bombardier plans to expand its main plant by 80,000 square feet and test facility by 2,100 square feet to accommodate longer cars and additional testing capacity. These changes will lead to increased efficiency, flexibility and capacity for new contracts. Bombardier released a design rendering of the project and is expected to break ground in the next few months. To view the rendering, go to http://regionalcouncils.ny.gov/north-country/Plattsburgh-Plant-Expansion.

“This is a truly exciting commitment for the future of the North Country economy,” said Garry Douglas, co-chair of the North Country Regional Economic Development Council and president of the North Country Chamber of Commerce. “It is the culmination of two years of steady efforts by Bombardier and its North Country partners, securing more than $1 billion in contracts this year from the MTA and BART and now this major expansion of Bombardier's presence in Plattsburgh.” He said this will solidify the area’s role as one of North America's top centers for the production of 21st century transportation equipment. The step forward in the future of the Plattsburgh site gives Bombardier the added manufacturing capacity to meet the challenges of upcoming projects and deliver on its commitment to customers, said Alan Aumais, Bombardier Transportation general manager of the Plattsburgh site. “Bombardier wishes to thank the North Country Regional Economic Development Council for its support.” Last year, a total of $785 million was awarded through the consolidated funding application for job creation and community development projects. The North Country was awarded $103.2 million in state support through the Regional Economic Development Council for some 70 projects across the region. “As a leader in transportation manufacturing, who recently signed a contract with the Metropolitan Transportation Authority to manufacture 300 subway cars in Plattsburgh, Bombardier will now be able to add 100 new jobs to better position themselves to meet the needs of its customers and compete in the national and international marketplace,” said Kenneth Adams, Empire State Development president, CEO and commissioner. Bolstering the manufacturing industry is key to building a stronger regional economy, said Assemblywoman Janet Duprey. “The North Country Regional Economic Development Council did a great job to ensure that this globally leading business continues to invest, grow, and create jobs in the North Country.”

Mike Reyell had one of his best nights of the season to claim fifth, one spot better than George Foley. The red flag was out on lap 20 for Richard Tisseur, who got jostled into the backstretch area, but walked away from the wreck. Jessey Mueller of Olmstedville held off point leader Nick Heywood for his first win in the Bond Auto/Liquor & Wine Warehouse Sportsman Modified trophy dash. Jason Durgan finished third ahead of Travis Bruno and Chris Sousie. Bucko Branham continued to dominate the Limited Late Models even as Jamy Begor (2nd) and Robin Wood (3rd) made a race of it as the laps wound down. Begor and Wood drew within a car-length of Branham’s Bud

Lite/Econo Lodge No. 20, but couldn’t make a winning pass. Shawn Duquette and Fred Lagoy were next in line. Rick Doner of Au Sable Forks and Joe Warren of West Chasy raced side by side for the first 15 laps of the 25-lap Renegade feature. Doner sped off in the Gordon’s Oil No. 1 in the final five laps for his first win. Warren, Kevin Boutin, Lance Rabtoy and Jason McClatchie were 2-3-4-5.

PLATTSBURGH — Pat McGrail and Todd Stone, who will settle the Airborne DIRTcar Modified title next weekend, finished 1-2 in an exciting, hard-fought 30-lap battle on Liquor & Wine Warehouse/Bond Auto Parts Night. There were three lead changes in the last 10 laps. McGrail had to pass Patrick Dupree twice to earn his fourth win, which trimmed Stone’s point lead to 10 points heading into next week’s 50-lap finale. Stone sat a close third to a McGrail/Dupree duel in the closing laps, but Dupree gave way to Stone exiting the final turn. “The right rear was gone,” Dupree said. Dupree had smoked McGrail to retake the lead on the 6 of 7 restarts with 13 laps to go. McGrail first took the lead on lap 12 after four early cautions shuffled the field. “That was a hard race for an old guy like me,” McGrail said. “I think I lost concentra-

Assembly hopeful outlines her vision By Stephen Bartlett

stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Karen Bisso has been to parades, gun shows and tractor pulls. She puts on her jersey each day and takes a hit, but she promised to talk to people and listen, and said she has done that over the past seven months. “I kept that promise,” said Bisso, a Republican and Conservative candidate for the New York State Assembly in the 115th Assembly District. She spoke recently at a press conference in the Town of Plattsburgh, during which Doug Hoffmann announced his full support of Bisso. He said he has known her for years, and she has an “incredible” work ethic and realistic approach to repairing New York state. Bisso, a veteran teacher and businesswoman, is tired of unfunded mandates in education, Hoffmann said, and has spoken out against rising taxes and increased government regulations that hamper business and job development. Following that announcement, Hoffman, a Lake Placid businessman and former congressional candidate, attacked Assemblywoman Janet Duprey. Bisso and David Kimmel are seeking to defeat Duprey, the incumbent, at the Republican primary on Sept. 13. The winner will run against Democrat Timothy Carpenter, a City of Plattsburgh councilor from Ward 1. Hoffmann accused Duprey of double-dipping by drawing her Assembly salary while collecting a state funded retirement. “She is an elected representative and is supposed to be a role model,” said Hoffmann, who admitted she is doing nothing against the law, referring to it as a “loop hole.” “Additionally, as a resident of the area, I watched effects on families of corrections officers and employees when Camp Gabriels closed under her watch,” Hoffmann continued. “These

families had to suffer the financial cutbacks.” Hoffmann said Duprey often casts liberal votes. “As a conservative, I am frankly disgusted by Janet Duprey ignoring her constituents by voting to change our historical and religious definition of marriage.” He called for voters to support Bisso on Primary Day, Sept. 13. Duprey, reached by phone, pointed out that she put in 31 years in county government and earned her retirement, a decision she made to protect her family. She further pointed out that it was not a “loop hole” but a law that allows an individual to retire and hold an elected position. “I worked very hard for Clinton County and did a good job,” Duprey said. “By taking retirement I am guaranteed retirement income that will protect my husband.” Duprey explained that it was the decision of the Commissioner of Corrections to close Camp Gabriels, along with other facilities around the state. In fact, Duprey and Senator Betty Little fought to keep Camp Gabriels open. She was unsure how the families suffered, pointing out that the corrections officers landed other jobs and did not have to leave the area. “It is always difficult when a facility closes and you never want to see it happen, but when people can still go home at night and put their head on their own pillows,” Duprey said. “We are fortunate to have back up that allows that to happen.” Duprey firmly believes gay marriage is a human rights issue and people are entitled to happiness with the person they love. She doesn’t understand how anyone can deny someone the opportunity to be happy with someone he or she loves and wants to share a life with while enjoying the same legal protections “that are not available under any other thing but marriage.” “I am very happy I made that vote and came down on the right side of history.”

Bisso said at the press conference that she would have voted differently on gay marriage. She said after speaking with people it is clear that the topics they are most concerned about are taxes, jobs and the “ever approaching hand of state government.” “I want to bridge the things we have in common to move forward.”

Keeseville man’s death ruled a homicide; leaves behind two children By Katherine Clark katherine@denpubs.com KEESEVILLE — New York State Police continue to investigate the murder of a Keeseville man whose body was discovered near the closed Iron Footbridge Sunday morning. The body of Robert M. Rennie, 45, of Keeseville was discovered at 6:14 a.m. on Aug. 26 by New York State Police and Emergency Medical Squad after a report of an unresponsive subject near the bridge. Emergency responders arrived and pronounced Rennie dead at the scene. Essex County Coroner Walter Marvin authorized the release of the body, which was transported to Albany Medical Center. An autopsy performed by Dr. Michael Sikirica, a forensic pathologist, ruled Rennie’s death a homicide. “As is the case with other homicide investigations I am not releasing the cause of death until the criminal investigation has been completed,” said New York State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigations Cpt. Robert LaFountain.

LaFountain said it was apparent Rennie’s death was a homicide based on undisclosed evidence gathered by initial responders to the scene. “Without going into further details, the New York State Police had various investigators throughout the region respond, including the Violent Crime Investigation team and the Forensic Investigation Unit,” LaFountain said. Investigators from the FIU were spotted in various locations in the Keeseville area throughout the day on Sunday and Monday. Investigators had blocked off Mill Hill Road on Monday afternoon and were seen leaving with evidence bags from a home located near the Lamp Light Mobile Home Park just down the road from Mill Hill. LaFountain said several search warrants have been obtained and were in the process of being executed. The investigation is continuing. LaFountain said Rennie had not been reported missing prior to the discovery of his body, though he would not say when Rennie may have been seen last and encouraged anyone with information to come forward.

“We don’t provide a lot of information and the reason for that is we’re trying to solicit information from potential witnesses,” LaFountain said. “We don’t want them to read something — we want to know what they have direct knowledge of.” At this time police will not release the names of any suspects or potential suspects in the murder investigation. “There is a homicide that has occurred and we urge everyone to use extreme caution until the person or persons responsible for Robert Rennie’s death have been apprehended,” LaFountain said. The investigation remains under intense investigation by state police and Essex County District Attorney Kristy Sprague. “I would like to take this opportunity to thank the community of Keeseville, and the various businesses who have cooperated and continue to cooperate in this investigation, and I would ask that anyone who has any information concerning the death of Robert Rennie or his whereabouts on Saturday or into Sunday morning contact the New York State Police at 563-3761,” LaFountain said.

comes back up, the stuff will wash away,” said Mayor Francis “Bumper” Baker. “It is uncommon in that area.” The spot in Lake Champlain behind the Rouses Point Village Office is not one where people typically swim or play in, though there were some individuals there recently. “We had a few kids that went there and we asked them to leave,” Baker said. Rouses Point draws water for its public system from the lake and cannot use its secondary intake, located in that area, while the bloom is there. But there is no problem with the main intake. “We have a main water intake that goes way out 1,800 feet,” Baker said. “So we are fine. “It just doesn’t have much of an impact,” he continued. “It is just a little bit on the stagnant side.” But Baker did want villagers to know that algae blooms can cause health issues. Cyanobacteria, also known as blue-green algae, is a phylum of bacteria that obtains energy through photosynthesis. It is best known for the extensive and highly visible blooms that can form in freshwater and the marine environment, giving off the appear-

Talk openly about suicide, mental illness to end dangerous stigma By Stephen Bartlett stephen@denpubs.com

Robert Rennie, pictured, was found dead Sunday morning, Aug. 26. Police have ruled the death a homicide.

ance of blue-green pain or scum. There is evidence of it living up to 3.5 billion years ago. Blue-green algae produces toxins that can be dangerous to humans and other animals and marine life. Recent studies suggest that significant exposure to high levels of blue-green algae toxins can cause Lou Gehrig’s Disease. There are no documented cases of human illness related to blue-green algae in Lake Champlain. But if animals ingest the toxin, they can be quickly paralyzed and die. During the summers of 1999 and 2000, two dogs died from blue-green algae poisoning on Point Au Roche in the Town of Beekmantown. Two beaches in Essex County were shut down earlier this summer due to bluegreen algae. Blue-green algae toxins have been detected at many locations in Lake Champlain, though the highest concentrations of toxins are often found in blooms and shoreline scums. These accumulations pose the greatest potential health risks. Baker said the blue-green algae was only found in that one small area behind the building. “It is not on the whole lake shore,” he said. “They haven’t said a word on how long this will take.”

PLATTSBURGH – Suicide. Just say it — suicide. The community needs to discuss mental illness and suicide, overcome the stigma, and empower people to reach out and to listen. “Suicide is a public health problem,” said Bonnie Black. “If it were any other illness, we would be out vaccinating people, but because it involves mental health, our society still carries a stigma.” Black spoke at a community dialogue on suicide at St. Joseph Church in Plattsburgh. “There is a sense of hopelessness and helplessness,” Black said. “A deep hole they feel they cannot get out of. “Yet people feel like if they don’t talk about mental illness it won’t exist.” Still, it does. In fact, one out of every four individuals suffer from mental illness, while one out of every six will be touched by suicide. A total of 36,909 suicide deaths were reported in the U.S. in 2009, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. That made suicide the 10th leading cause of death in the U.S. Nationwide, the suicide rate increased 2.4 percent over 2008, for a total of 12 suicides per 100,000 people. The rate of suicide has been increasing since 2000, and 2009 was the highest rate in 15 years. Every 14.2 minutes someone in the United States dies by suicide, while nearly 1 million people make a suicide attempt every year.

A total of 90 percent of people who die by suicide have a diagnosable and treatable psychiatric disorder at the time of their death. Men are nearly four times likely to die by suicide than women, yet woman attempt suicide three times as often as men. The highest rate of suicide in Clinton County is white males between the ages of 40 and 50. “Year to date, there have been 11 suicides so far in Clinton County,” said Sherri Gillette, director of the Community Services Board. “That is the highest in the last five or six years.” Clinton, Essex and Franklin counties have the second highest suicide rate per capita in New York state. “We deal with this on a daily basis,” Gillette said. Just the other day a girl posted on Facebook that she did not want to wake up in the morning. She had been extremely depressed. “We encourage anyone threatening harm to themselves to come into the clinic and be seen,” Gillette said. A man in the audience urged people never to assume suicide was an idle threat that will go away. His son made such a threat that he didn’t take in, and two days before Christmas in 2010 the young man took his own life. Debbie Jerdo told people they should go with their gut. She felt something was wrong and took her son, Joshua, to his primary care doctor. He was released, and 12 hours later completed suicide. “Joshua was a popular kid,” Jerdo said. “He was an A student and captain of the football team.

Suicide from page 1 She and her husband kicked the door in and found the young man dead, hanging by the closet door. Levandowski believes her son cried for help, but no one listened. “Take them serious if someone tells you they are planning suicide,” she said. “They might get mad at you, but they will be alive.” She doesn’t want to see another family experience such a loss. Suicide is a cry for help, she said, and there are always ways to get that individual help. “Nobody should have to go through this pain.” Angie LePage can relate to that pain all too well. “I lost my son, my precious son, to suicide.” She cannot recall any specific time he mentioned suicide, but if anyone is ever in that position, “don’t roll the dice,” she said. Her son, Michael, was struggling with alcohol and was facing his second DWI. “He was incredibly fearful with what would happen with him in the criminal justice system,” LePage said. “He got his second DWI, and in his mind he was done.” She recalls walking into the living room and glancing above the fireplace to see his picture face down. She asked him about it and Michael said that was how he wanted it.

Research shows that risk factors for suicide include: Depression and other mental disorders, or a substance-abuse disorder (often in combination with other mental disorders). More than 90 percent of people who die by suicide have these risk factors: • prior suicide attempt • family history of mental disorder or substance abuse • family history of suicide • family violence, including physical or sexual abuse • firearms in the home, the method used in more than half of suicides • incarceration • exposure to the suicidal behavior of others, such as family members, peers, or media figures. • However, suicide and suicidal behavior are not normal responses to stress; many people have these risk factors, but are not suicidal. Research also shows that the risk for suicide is associated with changes in brain chemicals called neurotransmitters, including serotonin. Decreased levels of serotonin have been found in people with depression, impulsive disorders, and a history of suicide attempts, and in the brains of suicide victims.

“My Michael didn’t want to die,” LePage said. “He just didn’t know how to live.” Mary Gillen’s son didn’t exhibit any revealing behaviors. There was no warning, except possibly the time he gave away his prized possessions. Still, Gillen chalked it up to the young man preparing to leave for college. “You never know what is in someone’s head.” She urges families and the community to begin talking about suicide. If the conversation does not start, nothing will change, she said. “Talk about it so it is not that thing that is whispered about,” Gillen said. “You have to use the bad word, ‘suicide.’” Anytime someone throws around suicide threats, take that person seriously, she said. The individual might be angry, but tomorrow and beyond that person will be alive. “We have to make mental health issues acceptable,” Gillen said. “Be honest with people and quit dancing around it.”

Donor aids Clearly Clinton campaign By Stephen Bartlett

stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — An anonymous donor from Rouses Point has pushed Clinton Community College past the million-dollar mark in its first year of the Clearly Clinton campaign. The $300,000 donation is the single largest donation to date. “We are grateful for this sizeable donation,” said Vice President of Institutional Advancement Steven Frederick. “Like many of the donations made so far, it’s very rewarding to see the people of the North Country coming out to support this worth-while campaign.” The anonymous donor is now part of a lengthy list of benefactors who have given to the Clearly Clinton Campaign. Last month, Wayne and Sylvia Manor of Richardson, Texas pledged $200,000. They are alumni of CCC, making it the single largest donation by a Clinton alumnus in college history. The Manors are also serving as honorary chairs of the campaign. “Our community and alumni see the importance of this project and the need to make it a reality,” said CCC President John Jablonski. “We are on track to make year two of this campaign just as big as this year.” The Clearly Clinton campaign launched in January as a five-year, $7.5 million fundraising effort to help build a 21st Century Learning Commons on campus. The total cost of the project is estimated at $15 million. The State University of New York will match the $7.5 million the Clearly Clinton campaign raises.

The recommendation to build the learning center arose from CCC’s 2007 Facilities Master Plan, which noted that the existing library is significantly undersized and poorly configured for a college of its size. “I cannot think of a better gift or a bigger impact for every student on this campus then building a state-of-the art learning commons.” Frederick said. “This is a gift that will continue to give for years to come.” In 2011, JMZ Architects and Planners confirmed the college and its students need a modern facility that includes traditional library functions, electronic research tools, areas for group study and for quiet study, tutoring services and accommodative services for students with disabilities. Larry and Judy Jeffords of Jeffords Steel and Engineering are the official co-chairs of the campaign. They own a multi-million engineering and manufacturing business, and Mrs. Steel graduated from CCC in 1971. Keeseville businessman George Moore is an honorary chair. He has long supported CCC’s mission “to provide educational opportunities that enrich minds, strengthen the economy and improve the quality of life in our region.” The Clearly Clinton Campaign will wrap up on June 30, 2016 or when the campaign goal has been successfully achieved.

Autumn on the rise: Time for fur, fins and feathers

ccording to the most reliable reports, angling opportunities on most local lakes and ponds has slowed down significantly in recent weeks. Overall, it has been a very slow season, even for anglers with the expertise to fish in deeper waters. Anglers can only hope for cooler air temperatures and cold rains to help salvage what has been largely, a dismal fishing season. Although I’ve seen a few nice specimens, and heard tales of a few others, ‘few’ seems to be the most commonly used term. Many anglers have asked if the lack of finding active fish was just an oddity? I’m sorry to report that this season’s distinct lack of action appears to be a consistent trend for most fish species including trout, bass and walleye. Lake trout and salmon, which tend to inhabit the deeper, cooler waters were taken a bit more readily by those who prefer to plumb the depths with downriggers and wire or leadcore lines. It is open to debate whether the poor fishing can be attributed to the scouring effects that occurred on local waterways during last year ’s extreme water levels, or to the diminished oxygen content resulting from the season’s usually warm waters. While I have enjoyed a couple of days of consistently good fishing this season, the feeding has been largely sporadic, if at all. Fortunately, there is already the hint of autumn in the air, and the hardwoods have begun taking on their fall colors. Hopefully, the subtle seasonal changes will prompt a feeding streak that’ll last through the end of trout season. As September rolls around, so do many other sporting opportunities, with birds again available on the wing, and turkeys in fields. Big game hunters have been counting down the days to the start of Early Bear Season, as archers await the beginning of Bow Season for whitetail deer. Traditional hunting opportunities will mix easily with the tail end of trout season, and the beginning of the annual salmon spawn runs. With such a wealth of outdoor opportunities, it is easy to understand why autumn is considered the High Holy Days of Sportsmen.

of three distinct species such as bass, pike or trout in a single day’s outing. The achievement can also be ‘species specific’ with the combination of any three single species, whether brook, rainbow, brown, lake, splake, or tiger trout. A Super Grand Slam, also known as an Adirondack Five Star requires five of the same species such as a brook, brown, rainbow, lake and a splake to be taken in a single day. Similarly, a Super Grand Slam could be accomplished by combining five different game fish species including a Northern pike, walleye pike, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass and a lake trout or landlocked salmon. Any combination of warmwater or coldwater gamefish species is considered acceptable.

The Real Mcnab: Rod, Rifle and Gun

Once every four or five years, New York State’s sporting calendar provides sportsmen and women with a unique opportunity when the bird hunting, deer hunting and fishing seasons all overlap. The timeframe when these concurrent seasons occur is usually of a short duration, however it provides Adiron-

Sporting Traditions

In the Adirondacks, fishermen and women qualify for an Angler ’s Grand Slam by catching at least three different species, or taking three fish of a singular species in a single day. According to the International Game Fish Association (IGFA) a saltwater Grand Slam is achieved when an angler lands a bonefish, tarpon and a permit during one day of fishing. An Inshore Grand Slam includes three species on the same day, including bonefish, tarpon, permit or snook. A freshwater, Grand Slam may include any combination

Opportunities to accomplish an Adirondack version of The Macnab are limited to three days Oct. 13 through 15. The effort will require catching a brook trout on the fly, harvesting a whitetail buck with a muzzleloader and taking a pair of ruffed grouse on the wing in a single day. dack sporting enthusiasts with an opportunity to pursue a unique American version of a fabled Scottish sporting accomplishment, known as a Macnab. A Macnab is a sporting challenge similar to an angler ’s ‘Grand Slam’, however, it is compounded by a combination of angling, stalk hunting and wing shooting required in the effort. To accomplish a pure Macnab, it helps to have a good friend with a large estate in Scotland, or a lot of money. Currently, Highland Lodges in Scotland offers a MacNab Challenge hosted at the Aberchalder Estate near Invergarry in the West of Scotland for roughly $2500 per person. Meals, lodging, transportation, gratuities, trophy fees and airfare are all extra. A New York state Sportsman’s license costs $47, and it entitles the holder to take fish, fowl and game. Typically, the day begins at dawn on the River Garry where an experienced Ghillie assists attempts to catch a salmon on the fly. Anglers are later whisked off to heather covered mountains to stalk a Red Deer Stag and the day is completed after shooting a brace of grouse on the wing. It is conducted under the guidance and advice of experienced Ghillies, Stag Stalkers and Gamekeepers. Fees include all licenses and permits. Rods, reels, flies, waders, rifles, shotguns and ammunition are all extra. In the Adirondacks, the annual trout season concludes on Oct. 15, and the Muzzleloader Season for Whitetail Deer begins on Oct. 13. Ruffed Grouse season opens on Sept. 20 and runs through Feb. 28, 2013. For the current year, opportunities to accomplish an Adirondack version of The Macnab are limited to just three days, from Oct. 13 through 15. The effort will require catching a brook trout on the fly, harvesting a whitetail buck with a muzzleloader and taking a pair of ruffed grouse on the wing in a single day. Good luck, and take plenty of pictures! Joe Hackett is a guide and sportsman residing in Ray Brook. Contact him at brookside18@adelphia.net.
