New library in Chazy’s future
By Sarah L. Cronk sarah@denpubs.com
By Sarah L. Cronk sarah@denpubs.com
CHAZY — As years have passed since William H. Miner ’s death, more and more myths about the local philanthropist have surfaced. Dr. Joseph C. Burke hopes to change that. Burke recently released a biography about Miner titled, “William H. Miner: The Man and the Myth.” The book reveals some of the myths surrounding Miner, as well as why some are often of a negative connotation. To promote his book, Burke will be holding two upcoming lectures, Thursday, Dec. 17, at 7 p.m. at the Miner Institute and Friday, Dec. 18, at 7 p.m. at the Alice T. Miner Museum. Thursday’s lecture will focus on “William H. Miner: Why All the Myths and Why All the Negatives,” which according to Burke is because Miner was one of the American mobility myths. According to Burke, back in the 1890s, during the time of John D. Rockefeller and Henry Ford, only a small selection of people ever became wealthy. “No one could believe See MINER, page 7
CHAZY — When Dr. George Clark was nearing retirement some years ago, individuals in the community turned to him to help the Chazy Public Library. Since his passing in May, they found out he came through for them. In July 2008, the library conducted a long-range planning survey, receiving results from nearly 1,100 Chazy residents. From the survey, the library board of trustees learned parking, building size and lack of handicapped access were three areas the residents found unsatisfactory. The current library building is noncompliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act, enacted in 1990, explained board president George Brendler. Another survey was conducted this fall, as to whether or not the residents would be interested in having Clark’s office be the new library. Based on those results, the board unanimously passed a resolution Dec. 2 to accept Clark’s gift.
“Our lovable library is very small. It has limited room for books, no reading or research areas,” said Brendler, adding there is limited space to meet ADA requirements. The board was notified they had the opportunity to receive Clark’s office this summer. “This is a fantastic opportunity for the people of Chazy,” Brendler said, “to be able to expand from our limited space in the historic Hubbell building without having to invest in land or a new building.” Currently, the board is organizing several committees to look into fundraising, grants and figuring out the costs of renovations. “We cannot occupy the building and begin any renovations or construction until after being granted a deed,” explained Brendler, “which may take many months.” However, the board has been discussing ideas they hope to see in the new building, including handicapped accessibility and research and office areas. The building currently has handicapped accessibil-

ity, but needs upgrading. And, although they have five bathrooms, they have no handicapped bathroom. “[We have] long needed features not existent in the old building to be created in the new one,” said Brendler. They also hope to develop the land behind the building for parking space. “The scenic area along the river would also provide an opportunity for small outdoor functions as well,” Brendler added. The board has voted to
create The Chazy Public Library Foundation, which will allow the public to make tax-exempt donations for the library project. Already, some patrons have volunteered to help with fundraising or give donations. Currently, the amount needed to renovate the building is unclear, although a construction and renovation committee is forming to do cost projections, beginning in early 2010.
“This will give us a better idea of how much money we need to raise, “ Brendler explained. If the board had not accepted the office building, it would have been given to the Alice T. Miner Museum, which received Clark’s home. “Like the present building, the doctor ’s office is located in the village center and steeped in local history, allowing us to continue those Chazy Public Library traditions,” said Brendler.
Christmas tree to be decorated in honor of loved ones, military By Sarah L. Cronk sarah@denpubs.com ROUSES POINT — After losing her son in a car accident in January, Kimberly McGoldrick has found a way to honor him, and others. On Friday, Dec. 18, the public is invited to gather at a Christmas tree at the village of Rouses Point offices on Lake Street, next to the gazebo, where they can hang ornaments in memory of a loved one or for those serving overseas. “I want to do it as a community service so people can get together and come out where
they need company,” McGoldrick explained. McGoldrick, a Girl Scout leader and district manager of the Girl Scout troops in Champlain, Mooers and Rouses Point, got the idea for the tree through the Elizabethtown troop leader. “We were talking about it in a meeting one day and she said she always does a memorial tree for the servicepeople and for a lost one,” McGoldrick explained. After explaining to the leader she lost her 16-year-old son, Jonathan, she wondered if the leader wouldn’t mind McGoldrick “stealing” her idea.

“So, we go the idea and I’m taking it on the road and going,” McGoldrick said. Now, she’s looking to the community to participate. Anyone interested in having an ornament made may contact McGoldrick and she will have a Girl Scout make one. The community is also welcome to make their own to put on the tree. “We are making ... laminated cardboard with a name and date and who it is from and it’s going to be hung up,” McGoldrick ex-

To have an ornament made, contact McGoldrick at 570-8114 or e-mail bnk@primelink1.net. She is asking people to give their name, the person whom they wish to honor, the date in service or they passed away, and who it is from. The ornaments will be hung on the tree during the Dec. 18 ceremony, which begins at 7 p.m.

A tradition returns to Mooers By Sarah L. Cronk sarah@denpubs.com MOOERS — For as long as Edie Morelock can remember, the tree outside the Mooers Free Library has been lit for Christmas. However, six years ago, the tradition came to an end. But, this year, with the help of community members, the tree is illuminated once again. “Before I came here, ever year they were lighting [the tree],” said Morelock, director of the library. “Then, when I came ... my husband and my son put the lights on the tree.” Morelock’s family used a pole to put the lights on the 40-foot-high tree, but after three years, the lights came

said Morelock. To celebrate the re-lighting of the tree, Scouts from the community came out Dec. 3 to sing Christmas carols as the tree was lit. “I think it’s wonderful,” Morelock said of the reestablished tradition. “I’m really thrilled that this happened. Because I’ve tried for six years, unsuccessfully.” “I kind of was like I’ll believe it when I see it,” added Morelock. “And, it actually did happen.” Morelock wishes to thank everyone in the community for utilizing the library more this year, and hopes they have a “Merry Christmas.” The Mooers Free Library is open Tuesday and Wednesday, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.; Thursday, 4-7 p.m,; and Saturday 8:30 a.m. to 12 p.m.

down from the wind. “I couldn’t get anybody to put the lights back up because nobody wanted to go that high,” she recalled. This year, however, the Rev. Al Johnson, pastor of Mooers United Methodist Church, spoke with Charles Sturniolo and Ted Kolff van Ooster wyk, members of the church, to figure out a way to get the lights back on the tree. “They kind of put their heads together and they worked all this out logistically,” Morelock said. “I just gave them encouragement.” On Nov. 25, with the help of Jack Dragoon from Dragoon Farm Equipment, employee Chris Bulriss operated a fork lift from Dragoon’s while Sturniolo road the lift to the top of the tree and adorned it with lights. “It went very smoothly, considering it was so tall,”

Voting reminder
Local authors to speak at meet and greet By Sarah L. Cronk sarah@denpubs.com ROUSES POINT — Local authors are coming together to help raise money for two local organizations. The North Country Authors Meet and Greet will be held at St. Patrick’s Church, this Saturday, Dec. 12, from 2-6 p.m. During the event, authors Dr. Richard Frost, Jim Millard, Eleanor Berger, and Gordie Little will give special presentations to the audience about the books they have had published. “[Millard] is very popular is Rouses Point,” said organizer and author Lawrence Gooley. “I suspect he’ll be the primary draw, which is going to be good for all of us.” Gooley is hoping by bringing in some wellknown local authors, it could help others. “I realized that we have some people up here that are more high-profile than most,” said Gooley. “And, if they get together, you can attract more attention and hopefully attract more attention for people whose books are lesser-known.” Gooley, co-owner of Bloated Toe Publishing, a local publishing firm, will also be on-hand to give assistance to those who may be interested in having a book published. “We’re there to answer a lot of questions,” Gooley explained. “Questions that we had years ago about ‘Well,
I’ve got this idea, but how do I do it?’” “Every step of the way we can tell someone what they need to do to get published,” he added. Gooley and his partner, Jill McKee, started Bloated Toe five years ago, after realizing the struggle of getting published. “We noticed that a lot of people were struggling and they had a difficult time maintaining sales,” said Gooley. “You might have a burst of sales at first, but then it kind of dies out. Most of the profit goes to other people and we’ve been trying to change that.” Gooley added the publishing world has completely changed in recent years. “You can self-publish. There’s not stigma attached to it anymore ... and you can earn a profit,” he said.
C O V E L’ S
Now, Gooley is using his knowledge of publishing and his connection with local authors to help out the Dodge Memorial Library and the Rouses Point-Champlain Historical Society, during the meet and greet. “Most of us who love books, we look to the libraries to begin with, the same with historical societies,” explained Gooley. “Most of us write books that are related to local history, and we would like to add some support to them.” During the meet and greet, seven authors, including those giving special presentations, will be selling signed copies of their books, with part of the proceeds helping out the two organizations. Attendees can arrive any time from 2-6 p.m.

ast week, we looked at the ratification of the new Wi-Fi (wireless local area network) standard, 802.11n. This week, we look at the new standard and discuss how it performs better than the older Wi-Fi standard, 802.11g. 802.11g had a theoretical throughput rating of 54 Mbps but the actual speed fell to half of that or even lower. Still, the throughput was adequate for most uses when the standard was introduced in 2003 and, because it operated in the 2.4 GHz band, it was backward compatible with even older 802.11b devices. The new 802.11n standard uses completely new technology in some areas and tweaks existing technologies in other areas to give Wi-Fi both more throughput and distance. The changes include multiple input-multiple output, channel bonding, and payload optimization. Multiple input — multiple output (MIMO) is a new Wi-Fi technology that uses multiple antennas to transmit and receive multiple data signals. Instead of sending and receiving one data signal, MIMO can simultaneously transmit three signals while receiving two. The technology allows for a much higher throughput of data and it increases the distance between wireless devices. Where 802.11g Wi-Fi used only one of 14 available channels to send or receive data, 802.11n Wi-Fi introduces channel bonding which allows two
separate channels to transmit data simultaneously increasing the total amount of data transmitted. Payload optimization is a tweaking of current technology that allows more data to be carried within each packet. 802.11n also provides backward compatibility for 802.11a, b and g devices so updating to new access points is possible without the need to upgrade the whole By Ron Poland system. Together, the changes in the new Wi-Fi standard allow organizations the option to easily deploy low-cost, higher-speed wireless to satisfy the ever increasing appetite for more throughput.

rying to do everything right promotes an all or nothing attitude. So, if you can’t do something perfectly (exercise daily for one hour), then you may not do anything at all. That is not good. We need to change our mindset and start believing every little bit counts! Here are “good enough” guidelines for four common “get fit” recommendations. Fruits and Vegetables — The perfect: nine servings a day. The good enough: five servings because that is all it takes to lower stroke risk by 31 percent, according to a recent Harvard study. Exercise — The perfect: 30 minutes of cardio-exercise five or more days a week. The good enough: 17 minutes a day. This still reduces your risk of heart disease by 27 percent. Hydration — The perfect: eight eight-ounce glasses of water a day. The good enough: drink with all meals and in between meals. Consider other beverages besides water (juices, milk, coffee, tea). Foods that contain water, soups, fruits and vegetables, contribute to hydration as well. Strength training — The perfect: two or three times a week. The good enough: once a week. Research has shown people
who lift weights once a week for two months gained as much muscle as those who lift weights three times a week; it just took a few weeks longer for the same results. The key is to slow down. Take your time while lifting to build muscle faster. Allow three to four seconds to lift the weight and three to four seconds to lower it. And, remember, it’s never too late. Small changes matter ... start today!

How ‘Catalina’ coupons can help you save
I
f you’ve shopped for groceries at a large supermarket, you’ve undoubtedly noticed the long “string” of coupons that print out at the register along with your store receipt. These checkout coupons, or “Catalinas,” as coupon shoppers commonly call them, are incredibly valuable to coupon shoppers. (Catalina Marketing Corp. introduced the computer system that issues checkout coupons about 25 years ago, although the company says it’s not sure how or why shoppers picked up on the name.) If you’ve ever taken a look at the kinds of Catalinas that print after your shopping trip, you’ll notice that they typically fall into three categories: money-off coupons for specific products, coupons for money off on your next shopping trip or alerts of upcoming sales. A shopper receives money-off Catalinas when the UPCs of certain items in their cart are scanned at checkout time. The register “sees” a certain brand or type of item you are purchasing and spits out a Catalina that offers a discount on a competing item that you may consider purchasing in the future. Last week I purchased a certain brand of apple juice and received a $1 checkout coupon for a competitor ’s brand of apple juice. You may even receive a coupon for a free item! Just in the last month, I bought one variety of pet treats and received a coupon for a free package of treats from a competing brand. A couple of weeks later, I bought one brand of yogurt and received a Catalina for a free 4-pack of a competitor ’s brand of yogurt. The second type of Catalina is issued during a general money-back sale at the store. You may see a store ad that states, “Buy any 10 products in this group and receive $10 off your next order.” That $10 savings comes in the form of a checkout coupon good for $10 off your next shopping trip. The discount is good on anything in the store. It’s just like having $10 cash to spend. The third kind of checkout coupon is an “alert.” These coupon alerts aren’t technically coupons, since they don’t of-
fer money off anything in particular, but they do contain details of an upcoming sale at the store. These “secret” sales are typically not advertised in any of the store’s flyers, so these checkout alerts are the only way shoppers can get in on the savings. Unfortunately, many shoppers consistently overlook the value of checkout coupons. It’s true that carryBy Jill Cataldo ing a long, somewhat cumbersome ticker-tape of Catalinas with your receipt as you exit the store can be a mild annoyance. But the value of all three of these varieties of coupon cannot be overstated. They’re all important, and you should save them all. I certainly do! Just as we save all of our coupons that come in the newspaper, even the ones for things we think we may not buy, saving all of our Catalina coupons ensures that we’ll have them on hand in case those items go on sale too. Almost two months ago, I received three $1 coupons for a smoothie beverage that I’d never tried before. Even though this is a product I wasn’t terribly interested in purchasing, I held onto the Catalina coupons. A few weeks ago, just before those coupons were due to expire … the smoothies went on sale for $1. Because I’d saved my Catalinas, now I got three of them for free! © CTW Features

Students learn about drug abuse from those with experience By Sarah L. Cronk sarah@denpubs.com (Editors note: The names in this article, except for Judge Timothy Lawliss, have been changed to protect their privacy.) CHAMPLAIN — According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, there are nearly 11 million underage drinkers in the U.S. The National Institute on Drug Abuse says nearly one-third of all 12th graders have used marijuana. In hope of changing these statistics,Clinton County Family Court Judge Timothy Lawliss is traveling to schools in the county with two past drug and alcohol abusers. “I preside over drug court and I asked members of the drug court team if they had any suggestions for somebody who would be on the younger side, who would be good speakers to come in and talk to middle school and high school kids,” Lawliss explained. He was told of “James,” a man who is now 14 years sober, from both alcohol and marijuana. James also suggested his friend “Chloe,” who is also several years sober. On Dec. 3, Lawliss, Chloe and James visited Northeastern Clinton Central School to speak students in seventh through 12th grade. “When I come and share with you guys about what happened to me when I was drinking and drugging, it really reinforces all the bad stuff and how it really affected my family and my friends and my life,” said Chloe to the seventhand eighth-graders. “I do this because it really is my hope and my goal that if there is one person in this room that can hear something

in my own skin.” By eighth grade, James would spend every weekend at a friend’s house drinking. “I never thought my drinking affected anybody,” James said. Now, years later, he knows during those years, his mother would turn her phone off in her room and turn the fan on high so she wouldn’t hear the phone ring when someone called to tell her James was dead. “That was her way of coping with what I was doing,” he said. At age 17, James was arrested for vehicular manslaughter and put in state prison. “It’s a pretty lonely thing to go through, going to jail,” he told the students. “I was scared and I was alone.” To cope with his emotions, James immediately found people in jail who could put him in contact with drugs and alcohol. After being released from prison, he was back to drinking regularly, even drinking and driving. Seven months after his release from prison, James was back in handcuffs, for attempted burglary. This time, however, his brother was also arrested, which seemed to be a wake-up call for James. In prison, he attended rehab, because he “couldn’t anymore ignore what alcohol had done to my life.” “It was so obvious at 21 years old, being in state prison for the second time, wasn’t normal,” James said. “Not knowing how to cope with just basic emotions without taking a drink or drug, wasn’t normal. So, I embraced the recovery program.” “Unfortunately we know that [Chloe] and I are the minority,” he added. “Most addicted people will never find recovery. Most addicted people will die from this disease.”
Having a lifesaving discussion with teens about the dangers of drinking
P
arents are the number one influence when it comes to teens and alcohol. That’s especially important when considering alcohol is the foremost youth drug problem in America. Fortunately, parents can reduce a young person’s risk of drinking. MADD notes that 74 percent of teens turn to their parents for guidance on drinking, highlighting the influence informed and prepared parents can have on teens when it comes to alcohol. To help parents, MADD recently launched “The Power of Parents: It’s Your Influence.” Sponsored by Nationwide Insurance, the program gives parents of high school stu-
dents real world communication tips they can use at home to stop teen alcohol use. Tips include communicate before a problem starts; discuss rules and consequences; show you care; pay attention; share family activities; give and get respect; and enforce consequences consistently. The program, found on-line at thepowerofparents.org, consists of parts, emphasizing both education and vention: 1. A Web-based clearinghouse of the available research on how to reduce
written for parents, not scientists. The Web site includes everything from conversation tools to an “ask the expert” section, wherein parents can learn how to effectively answer tough questions about their own underage alcohol experiences and how to manage their alcohol consumption in front of their two prebest risk
teens. 2. A community-based program where parents can come together to discuss proven strategy for the initial conversation to have with teens about alcohol as well as develop-
ing ongoing conversations to ensure teens stay on the right track. In addition to the Web site, MADD has also worked with Dr. Robert Turrisi of Pennsylvania State University to provide a handbook to parents about how to have the conversations about alcohol. Shown to reduce drinking significantly among college students, Turrisi has adapted it for use among parents of high school students. Higher supervision and monitoring by parents consistently leads to lower levels of drinking.

The 2009 season grinds to a halt A
s you read this we’ll be closing the curtains on another northern zone hunting season. This time of year is always a tad deflating. Cleaning out the fridge at camp. Making ice fishing plans with lifetime hunting chums that rarely materialize. If only hunting season lasted all year ... the world would be a happier place. Except for the deer, of course. Oh, and the hunting camp widows. At least the newly wed ones who still miss you when you’re gone. For my crew this season will be marked by a number of great memories — culminating in one of the largest deer we’ve taken in years. Nevertheless, like most camps, we saw a lot less deer this season, especially does. I’ve heard the same almost universally across the board. Crews that traditionally put a baker ’s dozen on the meat pole hung maybe half that this year. Interestingly, though, state wildlife
officials are predicting that the overall take will be up slightly higher than last year. Senior Wildlife Biologist Ed Reed told me that, in spite of the anecdotal evidence, the “reported take to date is actually a little ahead of last year.” “We won’t know how this translates into a calculated take until after the season when we can determine the reporting take,” he said. Reed did say hunters also told him they believe the deer herd seemed smaller this year, and said his personal experience in the woods also followed that trend. But, he made a good point in that the weather definitely didn’t make life easy on us. “The weather was horrible for deer hunting most of the season with no snow cover and warm temperatures. The deer just weren’t moving much, especially during the daylight hours,
Congratulations, Rabbit!
although I did see quite a bit of buck sign in the woods. Our deer check efforts at meat cutters seemed to be low early in the season, but the past couple of weeks have picked up considerably,” Reed said. A look at local buck contests shows a similar trend, with a majority of the bucks weighed in the past couple weeks, though most are reporting less deer overall. The weather gods did smile on us the final weekend, and most had at least a day with tracking snow — even in the valleys. I know a handful of local camps took advantage. The Euba Mills Outlaws in New Russia, for example, more than doubled their season-long take in one weekend, and, word is some guy from E-town named Rabbit broke a long buckless lull with a big-tined eight. Good stuff.

Bill Kohen of Elizabethtown shot this massive 8-pointer on the last day of the 2009 northern zone season. The buck weighed 182 pounds after being run ragged chasing does and sparring with other bucks for dominance. If you have a picture of a monster catch, e-mail it to John Gereau at johng@denpubs.com!
