Barn sale to benefit family mission to Costa Rica

By Andy Flynn andy@denpubs.com BAKERS MILLS — A family here will be holding a barn sale this weekend to raise money for a mission trip to Costa Rica.

Rob and Trena Riedinger need to collect enough money for their family — including five children ages 10 to 15 — to travel to Costa Rica next summer as

part of the e3 Legacy program.

“Being that there are seven of us, this is a big deal, but certainly not too big for God,” Trena said. “e3 stands for evangelizing (telling others what God has done in our lives), equipping and establishing churches.”

The Riedingers are planning their trip for July 19-28, 2013.

According to the e3 Legacy program, family mission trips are designed to provide an effective means for parents to build a mission mindset in the hearts

of their older elementary and high school-aged children. One of the goals is to strengthen their family’s bond and develop a Great Commission-oriented family by serving together on the mission field for a week.

“It was their mission statement that is on their website for their family part of their organization (and not all organizations allow families to go, especially ones with 10 year olds) that drew CONTINUED ON PAGE 13

Ohio woman dies in rafting accident, guide arrested

By Andy Flynn andy@denpubs.com INDIAN LAKE — A 53-year-old Ohio woman died in a rafting accident Thursday, Sept. 27 on the Hudson River, and her guide was arrested after police found him to be intoxicated.

New York State Police from Indian Lake and Ray Brook responded to

HOMETOWN OIL

Chain Lakes Road in the town of Indian Lake around noon for a report of a missing rafter. New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) personnel and members of the Hamilton County Sheriff ’s Department, Indian Lake Volunteer Ambulance Corps and Indian Lake Volunteer Fire Department also responded to help with the investigation.

The investigation revealed that

Rory F. Fay, 37, of North Creek, was operating a raft on the Indian River as a New York state licensed guide, employed by the Hudson River Rafting Company. Fay had two passengers in the raft with him: Richard J. Clar, 53, and Tamara F. Blake, 53, both of Columbus, Ohio.

Around 10:20 a.m. on the Indian River, Fay and Blake were ejected from the raft in whitewater conditions. Clar was able to stay within

the raft and eventually steer it to the shoreline. Fay was able to swim to the shoreline. Clar and Fay walked to Chain Lakes Road where they were able to obtain assistance. Blake was unable to be located and authorities were notified. New York State Police Aviation was used to search the river, and Blake’s body was discovered about 5 miles downstream in the Hudson River.

J’burg prepares to release 2013 budget

By Mike Mender

newsenterprise@denpubs.com JOHNSBURG – The public will get its first glimpse at the tentative 2013 Johnsburg town budget at the next town board meeting on Oct. 16, Supervisor Ron Vanselow announced at the Oct. 2 Town Board meeting.

Vanselow revealed no details about his spending plan but said the public will have the chance to weigh in on the proposal at a public hearing that will likely be scheduled for the town board meeting on Nov. 8 (moved to a Thursday because of the national general election on the 6th.) The board will consider public input before adopting a final budget, something that is likely to be voted upon at the board meeting on Nov. 20, Vanselow said.

In other business, the board voted unanimously to issue a request for bids to replace the ceiling at the Wevertown Community Center. The job would include replacing a drop ceiling in the main meeting hall as well as replacing the kitchen ceiling. The board set Nov. 8 as the date to open bids.

The board voted unanimously to hire Pe-

ter Morehouse, the low bidder, to conduct weed and plant remediation in the pond at Ski Bowl Park. Morehouse bid $2,800 for the job. Half of that amount, $1,400, will be reimbursed to the town through a grant for park improvements.

Ski Bowl Park project administrator Kelly Nessle announced that the long-anticipated climbing boulder for the Ski Park playground will be delivered Oct. 16, causing Supervisor Vanselow to quip that it would be in time for the first snowfall.

“With some snow on top of it, it’ll look just like the Matterhorn,” Vanselow said, suggesting that some little miniature skiers shushing down the boulder would complete the picture.

Town Secretary Cherie Ferguson announced that applications for those seeking Occupancy Tax funding are available at the Town Hall and online at www.johnsburgny.com Applications are due by October 30, Ferguson said.

The Johnsburg Town Board will meet again in regular session on Tuesday, Oct. 16 at Scout Hall, 4 Peaceful Valley Road, Johnsburg.

Rustic artisans receive awards at the Adirondack Museum of their rustic furniture by visiting www.lpostrustics.com.

Paul Lakata of Rustic Artworks, Johnstown, N.Y. took home the People's Choice Award. Paul has been painting with oils and creating frames in the rustic style for 12 years. His first rustic show was at the Adirondack Museum nine years ago. Until this year, his main focus was oil painting and handmade frames. The "Steam Launch Wine Cabinet" - a popular item at this year's show - was an idea that Paul had for a few years, and after last year's rustic show the decision was made to build it. The goal was to create something different than anything Paul had seen at the shows. The project started a week after last year's show and was completed one week before this year's show. Even though it is a functional wine cabinet, Paul considers it "a piece of artwork" with furniture incorporated in.

DEC shoots nuisance black bear in Long Lake

By Katherine Clark

katherine@denpubs.com LONG LAKE — New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC_ staff shot and killed a young bear after it approached a child, getting as close as 4 feet, on Tuesday, Sept. 25.

According to DEC Region 5 spokesman Dave Winchell, area residents had been feeding the bear for the past two or three months after its mother was killed by a vehicle.

Winchell said the bear was being fed by people from their cars, leaving food out for

it and was reportedly living on someone’s porch for a few weeks.

Because the bear was becoming so comfortable with people, Winchell said it becomes a public safety concern.

“Once they become habituated to see humans as a source of food, it’s a possibility the bear could become aggressive towards humans that don’t give them food,” Winchell said.

Winchell said he thinks some of the people thought they were helping the bear by feeding it and others were attracted to the novelty of feeding a wild bear.

“They were actually doing more harm

than good,” Winchell said. “If someone thinks there is an animal who needs help, they should call the DEC and we can determine the bear ’s needs.

Anyone who suspects there is an animal in distress should call the DEC emergency dispatch at 897-1300 or call wildlife officers at 897-1291.

“We have rehabilitators who can take care of the bear and then put it back into the wild, or they can determine if the bear is old enough to care of itself,” Winchell said.

Seven bears, including the bear shot on Sept. 25, have been killed in DEC Region 5 this year because of elevated nuisance be-

havior. Winchell said at least that many have been killed in Region 6 in the western Adirondacks this year as well.

The bear population appears to be up this year from previous years, and the dry season has encouraged bears to look for food outside of foraging the woods Winchell said.

The high volume of food is believed to be responsible for a plentiful breeding season last season. Winchell said he recently spotted a mother with four cubs walking through a nearby orchard, an abnormally high number of cubs, Winchell said.

Assembly candidates offer differing views

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com QUEENSBURY — Facing off in a political debate, state Assembly candidates Dan Stec and Dennis Tarantino both contended Tuesday Sept. 25 they will best represent the voters of the 114th Assembly District.

Stec is the Republican candidate and supervisor of the town of Queensbury, and Tarantino is the Democratic candidate, employed as an attorney in Glens Falls.

The forum, sponsored by the Adirondack Regional Chamber of Commerce, was held in Queensbury High School.

While both agreed that economic expansion and job creation was a primary legislative concern, the two offered opposing views on several issues including hiking the minimum wage.

Stec said increasing the minimum wage would throttle economic expansion and put people out of work.

“The economy is fragile, and New York has the next-to-worst business climate,” he said. “Business owners say raising the minimum wage would do more harm than good and cause layoffs.”

But Tarantino said he supported an increase, saying that it would spur economic activity, raise workers’ standard of living, and reduce public assistance payments.

“I strongly advocate raising the minimum wage,” he said, noting that it is now is barely above the federal poverty level.

“An increase is not going to cost jobs, and

it’s the right thing to do for low-income families — working people need the raise.”

Tarantino said he was seeking the Assembly post because he wanted to advance the progress made during the Cuomo administration. As a member of the majority, Tarantino said he’d collaborate with fellow Democrats and steer more state money now spent downstate to address upstate issues.

“I want to see that we in the North Coun-

try get our fair share,” he said.

Both said they were dedicated to get things accomplished in a bipartisan manner.

Tarantino said he had years of experience in compromise, a necessary skill for advancing legislation.

Stec cited his years of service as Chairman of the Warren County Board of Supervisors, working effectively with both Democrats and fellow Republicans.

Tarantino said if elected, he’d establish an association of North Country state legislators, meeting regularly to discuss issues and reach a consensus.

Stec identified his top legislative priorities as shrinking the cost of state government, promoting economic development, improving infrastructure — highways and bridges as well as broadband access — as well as rolling back unfunded mandates that now stifle small businesses as well as local government.

Tarantino said he sought to curb excessive governmental regulations and unfunded mandates, boost the North Country economy, bolster environmental protection, promote tourism and work to consolidate the state’s 108 agencies.

Stec called for the state to call a halt to its land purchases in the Adirondacks, a statement that prompted loud cheers from the audience of about 400. He said that the $50 million in state Environmental Protection fund money now earmarked for acquiring 69,000 acres of forest land in southern Essex County ought to be spent on curbing invasive species in Lake George.

Tarantino indicated support for the pending purchase.

“There’s another side to this issue,” citing that the supervisors of the towns of North Hudson and Newcomb both supported the transaction that has been advanced by Gov. Andrew Cuomo.

Both said that attending to the needs of U.S. veterans was of primary importance.

Owens, Doheny spar in debate for congress seat

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com QUEENSBURY — In a public political showdown, U.S. Rep. Bill Owens (D-Plattsburgh) and G.O.P. challenger Matt Doheny clashed over issues of health care, Social Security reform and labor-union organizing.

The two offered a variety of conflicting views during a debate held Tuesday Sept. 25 at Queensbury High School, just weeks before they face off in the November general election to represent the new 21st Congressional District.

About 400 people attended the debate, many of them voicing cheers or jeers — particularly over the national Affordable Health Care Act, also dubbed “Obamacare.”

Doheny said he opposed the Employee Free Choice Act, commonly known as “card-check,” which deletes a present a requirement for secret balloting in union organizing or recruiting.

He said that enactment of the legislation would crimp job creation and hamper small business growth.

“I have a deep belief in freedom and fairness,” Doheny said. “Secret ballots are a fundamental American principle.

Owens said he supported card check because it aided wage earners in their quest for fair pay and decent work conditions.

“Seventy percent of the economy is consumer purchasing, and I support the middle class,” he said.

Both said bolstering the economy was their prime objective, but they differed on ways of achieving that goal. While Doheny focused on easing regulations and taxes on entrepreneurs to create new jobs, Owens countered that there were 3,000 unfilled job positions in the region that required skills that applicants don’t now possess.

Owens said he was working with workforce investment boards and private groups to make appropriate training available so thousands of area residents could take on these positions — and boost the economy.

“My focus is clearly on getting those jobs filled,” he said, noting that workers needed new skills to operate computerdriven manufacturing equipment.

In response, Doheny said that easing regulations now crimping small businesses would allow them to become more competitive and allow expansion — and result in job creation. He said he personally toured more than 100 busi-

Green Party candidate Donald Hassig of Colton also participated in the debate.

“Love the earth, change everything,” Hassig said. nesses this summer, and most all the entrepreneurs told him that rolling back regulations was critical to their survival or expansion.

“I’ve heard from the business owners that Washington has run amuck with regulations,” he said, noting he supported the Regulatory Freeze for Jobs Act, which makes it more difficult for government to impose new regulations that have a negative impact of more than $100 million on the economy.

Owens voted against the measure, Doheny noted.

“Excessive regulation slows down job growth and kills the spirit of those who create jobs,” he said.

Owens countered that he indeed supported reducing needless regulations.

Health care legislation was the most contentious issue of the debate, one of a series of three to be held for the candidates before Election Day. “If elected, I will work to repeal and replace Obamacare,” Doheny said, prompting a chorus of simultaneous boos and cheers from the crowd. Owens voted for the Act in 2010.

Doheny said the legislation was expensive, would prompt employers to opt out of employee insurance plans, and put the power of health care into the hands of the national Independent Payment Advisory Board — while not addressing the issue of tort reform, which he said would reduce health care costs.

“Obamacare allows 15 unelected people to have complete power over our health care, and this is unconstitutional and I won’t stand for it,” Doheny said.

He also criticized the Affordable Care Act for its pending provision to impose a 2.3 percent excise tax on the revenue

of medical device manufacturers, a major employer in the region.

Owens countered that he favored amending the Affordable Care Act rather than repealing it. He said it was vital to protect the health of citizens — by forcing insurance companies to provide coverage for pre-existing conditions, by extending coverage for college students up to age 26 under their parents’ health plans, and by banning insurance companies from cancelling insurance of those who are ill.

“If the Affordable Care Act is replaced, any new legislation must address these issues,” Owens said.

The candidates also sparred on Social Security reform.

Owens said he didn’t agree with Doheny’s intent to make Social Security solvent by raising the full eligibility age from 66 to 67, or eliminating benefits to the wealthy, or shifting Social Security payments into private retirement investment accounts.

“Attempts to privatize Social Security are very concerning,” Owens said. “Social Security is the floor upon which many of our citizens live, and it cannot be tampered with.”

Owens added that for a high percentage of elderly in our region, Social Security provides their main source of income.

“I want to make sure any changes are focused on the needs of the people,” he said.

Doheny responded that without major reform, Social Security would be insolvent in 22 to 25 years.

“We can’t put our heads in the sand and pretend that the problems will go away,” he said, citing that age and earnings eligibility rules would have to change to protect the system.

Green Party candidate Donald Hassig of Colton also participated in the debate. He said he supported a raise in Social Security benefits to a floor of $1,500 per month, advocated government-supported free health care and free education for all. He also said he opposed corporate farming, stronger environmental protection.

Hassig also urged withdrawal from the World Trade organization, an action he said would create 30 million new jobs for Americans, reducing unemployment to zero percent.

He also said he supported taxing wall street transactions, particularly in credit swaps and derivatives. as well as reducing military spending — measures he said would pay for his initiatives.

“Love the earth, change everything,” Hassig said.

Prevention Team survey: Substance abuse on the decline

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — Teens appear to be getting it, but there is still more work to be done.

That is what Doug Terbeek and Mac MacDevitt said were the results of the 2012 Prevention Needs Assessment Survey conducted in each school throughout Essex County, which they presented to the Essex County Board of Supervisors during its Sept.

24 Ways and Means Committee meeting.

“Overall, the risk for youth is trending down,” Terbeek, the Executive Director of the Prevention Team, said. “There are 20 risk factors and 15 protective factors that are cov-

ered in the survey, and we can really pull out some very interesting data from these surveys. The good news is that the numbers are going down, but they are still higher than the national averages.”

MacDevitt said that students from each school filled out surveys about their perceptions and use of alcohol and drugs.

“We made it very clear and worked very hard to keep these results confidential,” he said. “No teachers ever saw their answers and each one was sealed after it was completed. The students were given the chance to be honest and open.”

MacDevitt said any surveys that seemed to be filled out improperly were discarded leading to what he felt was an accurate rep-

resentation of where teens in Essex County schools stand on the issues of alcohol and drug use.

“What the research says is that this is a community problem,” he said. “The idea is to try and work on these factors to make these things less desireable to our youth. We need to drive the kids to more positive behaviors.”

Terbeek said that around 76 percent of students in grades 7-12 in the county responded to the surveys.

“This is what these kids perceive is going on,” MacDevitt said. “This is their honest opinion. In the world of trying to figure out what is going on with youth, this is not a bad tool.”

One area where Terbeek and MacDevitt said they were concerned was where the teens were saying they were able to get alcohol from.

“You look at the top four responses and they all have to do with the home and parents,” Terbeek said.

One area that Terbeek said has seen success is the year-long fight against synthetic marijuana.

“It seems that the teens are getting the message and that the use rates are low,” Terbeek said. “The teens that we talked to got it. They got that K-2 was harmful and that is why they launched the efforts that brought us to the point where there is now a state ban.”

Substance Abuse Prevention Month observed in Essex County

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — October is National Substance Abuse Prevention Month.

The attention garnered by such a declaration is welcome by The Prevention Team, but members of the Ticonderoga-based drug education and prevention program know their work is an on-going effort.

“The drugs of choice seem to ebb and flow,” said Doug Terbeek, Prevention Team executive director. “Every generation needs to be taught about the dangers of substance abuse. It’s a never-ending battle.”

It’s a battle The Prevention Team has been waging for 27 years. Terbeek has been at its helm the entire time.

“It’s funny how things change, but really don’t,” he said. “We used to have a heroin problem, but that faded.Now we’re seeing heroin again. Cocaine seems to be coming back, too.”

With eight full-time employees, The Prevention Team is a non-profit agency providing education and prevention services for Essex County. It has educators and counselors in Elizabethtown-Lewis, Crown Point, Ticonderoga, Moriah, Minerva, Newcomb, Westport, Willsboro and Lake Placid schools.

“We try to make contact with every student at least once a year,” Terbeek said.

“Obviously we can’t see every kid every day and

there are some students we see more often than others.”

The Prevention Team is also active with adults, having formed partnerships in several communities to combat substance abuse. It sponsors a drinking-and-driving education program, trains servers and merchants about alcohol sales and operates an alcohol-awareness program for court-referred teens.

This past year the Prevention Team also played a lead role in efforts to ban synthetic marijuana, also know as K2, in New York State and lobbied the county board to prevent alcohol sales at the annual county fair.

“We do a lot of different things,” Terbeek said. “A lot of our programs are opportunistic; when we see a need we step in.”

In the past years the Prevention Team has conducted Walks Against Drugs, Youth to Youth programs, SAFE HOMES, Natural Helpers, Reconnecting Youth, FAST, Coaches and Captains, Boquet River Theatre Festival, Reality Check, Teen Institutes, Connecting Youth and Communities (CYC), One Second Exhibit 2008-2009, Prevention Team/Vermont Voltage Soccer Camps and BEST Walks.

Terbeek is pleased with the progress made in substance abuse prevention, but realizes more work needs to be done.

“We’ve made great progress on smoking (tobacco),” he said. “We have more restrictions and taxation on

tobacco than ever and it’s working. Fewer people are smoking.

“We still have a lot to do on alcohol; that’s our top problem,” he added. “We need to educate people about the health-related issues and point out the tragedies associated with alcohol — the accidents, domestic violence.”

Terbeek said the same effort that has made smoking “socially unacceptable” has to made on alcohol abuse.

“It’s harder to smoke than it is to drink,” he said. “The price of cigarettes keep going up because of higher taxes. Alcohol taxes are lower today than they were in 1965.”

It’s not practical to expect people to stop using alcohol, Terbeek said.

“We don’t promote abstinence from alcohol,” he said.

“We try to help people understand that they can drink responsibility; that they can have a good time without alcohol.”

The Prevention Team has no special events planned for National Substance Abuse Prevention Month, although it will observe Above the Influence Day on Oct. 18 and Red Ribbon Week Oct. 23-31. Red Ribbon Week honors the memory of Enrique (Kiki) Camarena, a federal agent killed by Mexican drug dealers in 1985.

President Barack Obama has issued a proclamation declaring October as National Substance Abuse Prevention Month.

“By providing strong sup-

port systems for our loved ones, and by talking with our children about the dangers of alcohol and other drugs, we can increase their chances of living long, healthy, and productive lives,” the president said.

“During National Substance Abuse Prevention Month, we celebrate those dedicated to prevention efforts, and we renew our commitment to the well being of all Americans.

“The damage done by drugs is felt far beyond the millions of Americans with diagnosable substance abuse or dependence problems countless families and communities also live with the pain and heartbreak it causes. Relationships are destroyed, crime and violence blight communities, and dreams are shattered.

Substance abuse touches every sector of our society, straining our health care and criminal justice systems.

“For all these reasons, my administration has made prevention a central component of our National Drug Control Strategy, and we have developed the first ever National Prevention Strategy. These strategies, inspired by the thousands of drug free coalitions across our country, recognize the power of community based prevention organizations, and suggest that prevention

Doug Terbeek activities are most effective when informed by science, driven by state and local

partnerships, and tuned to the specific needs of a community.”

ever see a return to civility?

APA: Use common sense to classify Boreas Ponds Will we not upon personal as today’s society lost all concern

W

hen it comes time to classify the more than 20,000 acres surrounding the picturesque Boreas Ponds tract, we hope the Adirondack Park Agency breaks from tradition and listens to the locals and a little good old common sense over the wishes of environmental groups with a long history of narrow-mindedness.

It is true that the area around Boreas Ponds has been shackled in private ownership. It is also true that it is one of the most beautiful places in the park, and it is wonderful news that, within five years, it will be open for all to enjoy.

But just how accessible will it be to all the user groups? The last time we checked, taxes from all New Yorkers — not just the environmental groups — helped purchase the land, so why limit it to just a select few?

We found it ironic that when “Team Cuomo” landed on the shores of Boreas Ponds a few weeks ago to tout the addition of the tract to the Forest Preserve, the group traversed the several miles up Gulf Brook Road to the main lodge in the comfort of motor vehicles. They had access to all-terrain vehicles for the trip and the governor fished the lake with a battery powered trolling motor.

If the APA decides to classify this land with the most restrictive “wilderness” classification — as we are certain the environmental groups will lobby in favor of — it would limit access, and a disabled veteran who fought for this country will not be afforded the same luxury as was given to the governor. In fact, he wouldn’t even be able to take a wheelchair up the road.

Under wilderness, the gate to this wellmaintained, two-lane gravel road will be forever locked, and the 3,500-square-foot main lodge overlooking the ponds — a place that would make a wonderful respite for that very same disabled veteran — would be razed in accordance with the Adirondack Park State Land Master Plan as it would be a non-conforming structure. It would be torn down, even though North Hudson Supervisor Ronald Moore and State Sen. Betty Little have both said they want it to remain open as a facility for the physically challenged.

That logic seems to make sense to us.

We are not advocating that the lands be

open to motor vehicles or ATVs; we know what kind of a battle that would be and understand the destruction that could be caused to the environment, and the damaging precedent that could be set here.

But a compromise could and should be reached — perhaps under a less restrictive Wild Forest classification or a combination of classifications — that would allow as many user groups as possible to access the land. From mountain bikes to horse-drawn wagons to wheel carts under canoes — perhaps, dare we say it, even snowmobiles on the road in the wintertime. Except for snowmobiling, it would be similar to the 10-mile roundtrip trek to Great Camp Santanoni.

Not everyone can hike 7 miles into a pond. For those that can’t, alternatives should be allowed. Anyone who cannot understand that is looking at it from a pretty narrow-minded point of view.

It is almost comical to hear the governor say that land purchases mean more tourism money for Adirondack communities. Tell that to residents of Hamilton County — an area that has the most state land and the lowest median household incomes in the state. The reality is state land purchases don’t automatically translate into tourism dollars.

It’s a great place to visit but a really difficult place to make a living.

North Hudson is in the same boat. As Moore recently said, the community has no gas station and no stores.

Let’s be realistic — what exactly is this land purchase going to do to stimulate the economy in his community? Link a snowmobile trail into Boreas Ponds with Newcomb, Long Lake, North Hudson and Schroon Lake, though, and see how that turns around. Make that same trail a mountain bike trail in the summer and now you’re on to something.

The APA should take all user groups into consideration when classifying state lands. This particular case is custom made for opening up to a more intense level of use. Let’s use some common sense and maintain what is already there.

This editorial is the collaborative opinion of a board comprised of Thom Randall, Fred Herbst, Shaun Kittle, Keith Lobdell, Stephen Bartlett, Andy Flynn, Katherine Clark and John Gereau. Comments should be directed to denpubs@denpubs.com

H

for civility? The conversation and questions have been growing louder over the past few decades, and there appears to be no real concern to improve the tone or tenor for the lack of respect in the ways in which we deal with each other, especially when we disagree.

It should be very apparent that our inability to deal with a broad range of problems is largely attributable to the destructive ways in which the issues are being addressed. A few week ago I was shocked to read an editorial in our papers, penned by one of our editors, who, instead of offering constructive commentary on comments made by individuals, resorted to using a broad brush to paint many with the comments of a few. He truly didn’t mean to do so and has issued a formal apology, but was so enraged by the comments of the few that it seemed a simple step to assume everyone of similar association must think and act like the persons who made the comments, even though the statements have been far and widely condemned by nearly all. Despite the condemnation, once comments like those are in the public arena they continue to circulate.

None of us are immune from putting our foot in our mouth. Some of the smartest people around can be caught making an inappropriate comment from time to time— sometimes taken out of context or requiring further explanation— but sometimes they just speak without thinking it all the way through. The problem isn’t always the comment, but how the comment is blown out of proportion. It takes on a life of its own, and, using a current term, goes viral.

Civility is more than just mere politeness.

Civility doesn’t mean a lack of confrontation or questioning on important issues, and it certainly shouldn’t be an excuse for any statements made publicly by an official or citizen. But neither should the lack of civility be allowed to become the destructive force it is growing to be in our society.

In short, any reasonable definition of civility must recognize that there are many different interests which divide an increasingly diverse society, a society that produces an endless series of confrontations over difficult moral and distributional issues. We all need to realize that other thoughtful and caring people have different and opposing views on how to best address these complex problems. Constructive and open debate needs to focus on solutions which have the greatest chance of success,

attacks which often include a distortion of the facts, name calling and a low blow leveled by one adversary Dan Alexander against another.

Thoughts from By not demandBehind the Pressline ing more civil and factual behavior from our leaders as they address the compelling interests of the day, we ultimately repeat what we hear and the actions we see to further distort comments.

The end result is a likely increase in the probability that any solution adopted is doomed for failure, having been constructed on inaccurate information. Fair, open and honest discussion and debate is essential to our democratic state, but when the escalation of distortion, closed-minded delay tactics and mutual mistrust enter the equation, all chances of a satisfactory resolution are lost.

Despite all the new technological information outlets available to us today, seeking the real truth and trying to avoid becoming complicit parties to pursue selfish objectives is almost impossible. The distortion of truth and lack of civil behavior has become so firmly rooted in our society that it is now our way of life.

This column was written before this week’s first Presidential debate. Now be honest with yourself, especially if you’ve already made up your mind for whom you plan to vote. Did either candidate offer a persuasive argument that caused you to reconsider your firmly rooted position, or are your positions so well rooted in either side’s distorted version of the truth that even listening to the other position causes an uneasy feeling?

Until we realize that the issues we face and conclusions we reach must be made on the basis of substantial open-minded arguments, made by fair and honest individuals who make personal gain a secondary concern, we will continue to ratchet up the volume. The end result may well be a powerful backlash and an ever-growing call for greater civility. We must find a way to transition from win-lose, which ultimately leads to lose-lose, and reach out to win-win opportunities.

Fall events on tap for Gore region

Chamber Happenings Fall foliage in our region brings thousands of visitors here. It's a great time for hiking and biking, canoeing and kayaking, and otherwise just enjoying the outdoors and the beautiful colors of this season.

It’s also a great time to show off our natural beauty and all that our businesses have to offer. October is a busy month.

Over Columbus Day Weekend, we have the Harvest Festival at Gore, Autumn Street Fair in North Creek, Harvest Moon Dinner Dance at the Copperfield, a concert at TPCC and the “Blow Out” Ski and Outdoor Gear sale at Ski Bowl Park.

Gore Mountain continues to have activities and events through the end of the month, and whitewater season continues to run through October.

The Saratoga and North Creek Railroad scenic train rides are selling out and they are reportedly adding more cars to accommodate more passengers. SNCRR will have a Pumpkin Patch Express from Saratoga to 1000 Acres Resort during the month and on Oct. 27-28 will have a Halloween Comes Early promotion, children in costume ride free with every paid adult.

In conjunction with that promotion, the Chamber will have a Family Halloween Hike to Ski Bowl Park Playground and downtown Main Street businesses will have a Halloween Scavenger Hunt, coordinated by The Exchange.

The Exchange is also adding workshops and artists’ demonstrations. There will be a “Purely Adirondack” Wedding Expo on Sunday, Oct. 14 at the Copperfield Inn, cosponsored by the Chamber, Copperfield Inn and Garnet Hill Lodge.

James Murphy, from Adirondack Economic Development Corporation is conducting a business start-up course, every Tuesday from Oct. 2 through Dec. 18.

While other Adirondack communities are closing up for the winter, we are still going strong.

Columbus Day weekend

The Gore Region will be hopping over Columbus Day weekend, Oct. 6-8. This weekend brings thousands of visitors here, by car and by train.

Notes from

Planet Earth

This process of differentiating is accomplished by accelerating the activity of some genes and suppressing the action of many others. This complex regulation of gene activity is accomplished by a large group of genes which don’t code for proteins (and therefore don’t contribute directly to such obvious characteristics as eye color) but code instead for regulator molecules which have the ability to regulate the activity of other genes.

It is now thought that many of dramatic changes seen during evolution (say from small primate to human) are less the result of random mutations in protein producing genes and more the result of heritable changes in the regulation of the activity of these genes. This could account for the fact that, although our genetic constitution (genotype) is only slightly different from that of a chimpanzee, there are much more marked differences in our appearance and behavioral characteristics (phenotype).

The attributes of the environment in which these processes take place provides much of the selection pressure which determines which organisms perish and which persist. In these multiple ways evolution has proceeded over millions of years to give us the huge variety of organisms we share the Earth with today.

Hester's History (cont.)

Luke Rist died Jan. 4, 1931. Evalena Russell Rist Andrus died June 9, 1951. Evalena had married Charles Andrus after Luke Rist had died. They were married

by Lionel Hitchcock just before Christmas. After Charles Andrus died, Evalena moved back to her old home on woodside farms for awhile. She visited her daughters before she went to Heaven. If I remember right Bessie was living farther away so she couldn't get there. But Mommie visited at my home a few days.

She was sick even then. Mommie lived for a while in part of Lillian and Lewis house, when lillian and Lewis kept store where the Post office building is now, April 1981.

My dear mother was sick and right in bed for a while at Esther and Bert Allen's. There is where Mommie was when her Spirit and soul went to Heaven.

Bessie was a minister and was in different towns and cities preaching the gospel. Lillian was the postmaster for several year. Esther worked on the farm after marrying Bert Allen and helped him in the woods.

Earlier in life she and her first husband had helped in gospel services some.

Enjoy each and every day.

DEC defends killing injured moose in Essex County

By Katherine Clark

katherine@denpubs.com RAY BROOK — New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) officials are defending the Sept.

25 killing of an injured moose in the Wilmington Notch.

DEC Regional Wildlife Conservation Manager Lance Durfey said the decision to kill the moose was made after watching the animal suffer for four days. Furthermore, the DEC was following protocol for dealing with moose near busy roadways.

“Certainly euthanizing the moose wasn’t the outcome we wanted or hoped for, but it ended up being the most humane choice for the moose,” Durfey said.

Durfey — who made the decision to shoot the moose — and DEC spokesman Dave Winchell said field staff watched the moose after it was reported on Saturday, Sept. 22 that the moose was spotted in the West Branch of the Ausable River and appeared to be injured.

The moose attracted a lot of human attention during the few days it was there with curious motorists along state Route 86 stopping to watch. Winchell said the increased traffic led to the need for traffic control officers and more dangerous roadway conditions with increased pedestrian and car traffic.

DEC staff tested the moose’s mobility by firing rubber pellets at the moose. The moose moved away from the river and into the woods, only to return on Sunday and remain there until Tuesday when the decision was made to kill it.

“On Tuesday (the moose) was obviously in distress,” Durfey said. “We tried to get it to move again and this time it wouldn’t. Both hind legs were swollen and the animal was floundering, thrashing and unable to stand and it’s limbs were shaky. It was obvious to us the animal wouldn’t be able to recover, and we decided then it was the best to euthanize him and end its suffering.”

Though Winchell said the DEC has not received direct complaints and disagreement from the public, he said a dis-

Both moose, and moose calls have become a rather common occurrence across the Adirondacks in recent years.

approving tone from the community was voiced in local media and social media outlets.

“We were hearing that people didn’t think what was done was right or they were angry the moose had to be euthanized, but what was done was part of the protocol for our department,” Durfey said. “We get involved when wildlife is impacting people, it’s one of our department’s responsibilities.”

The protocol for handling the situation, like the one that unfolded in the Wilmington Notch, is outlined in the New York State Moose Response Manual. Dated April 1, 2011, the manual designates in the section titled “Moose in or near high traffic areas” the following protocol:

“For moose on a heavily used high-speed highway, shoulder, or median, control traffic by reducing vehicle speed or stopping traffic and alerting motorists. Use chasing/herding/hazing options to direct the moose toward more suitable areas. If the moose is in a situation that does not allow for these options, then it should be shot.”

Likewise, in the “Sick or Injured Moose” section, the manual states the following protocol: “If the moose is injured and it is determined that chances of survival are high, the moose should be left alone and monitored from a distance that does not affect natural behavior.

If the moose is in a situation where it cannot be left alone or kept a safe distance from the public, it should be euthanized as soon as possible ... If the injury is severe enough to limit chances for survival, the moose should be euthanized as soon as possible.”

Winchell said he understands the negative reaction and encourages anyone who feels that way to take a look at the outlined protocol for situations like this.

Shooting the moose was decided to be the most humane way to help the Wilmington moose, according to Durfey. “(With) chemical immobilization, the moose would have been fully conscious but physically immobilized,” Durfey said. “He would have been very uncomfortable, and there are currently no animal rehabilitation facilities that help an animal of that size.”

Winchell and Durfey said they don’t believe this situation sets a precedent for handling injured moose as the DEC takes each situation on a case-by-case basis.

“Human safety was certainly a factor here but not the primary factor,” Durfey said. “The welfare of the animal came down to be the deciding factor here.”

A necropsy (autopsy of an animal) of the moose may take weeks or months to receive results Winchell said, and they will be made available when they are submitted.

Small group protests DEC’s killing of ‘Bruce’ the moose

Nine people held a protest on Sept. 29 against the DEC shooting of a moose on the Wilmington Notch.

WILMINGTON — A small group of protesters weathered the rain and cold on Saturday, Sept. 29 to stand up for the moose killed by the Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) on Sept. 25.

The protest was held after a wildlife official shot and killed an injured bull moose that had been seen around the West Branch of the Ausable River for four days off a narrow stretch of road in the Wilmington Notch.

DEC Regional Wildlife

Sunday, Sept. 30 was harvest time at the Minerva Central School garden. Students from the MCS Honor Society (Jim Dorsey, advisor) and Environmental Science Class (Sarah Fink, teacher) along with garden coordinator Katie Smith and other helpers harvested celery, carrots, cabbages, and tomatoes. It's the first year of produce yield for the garden and was the result of plenty of help from students and community volunteers.

Conservation Manager Lance Durfey said the decision to kill the moose was made after watching the animal suffer with injuries to its back legs.

The nine protesters stood in a parking area on the Wilmington Notch, carrying signs, playing drums and chanting for passing cars to give their support for the moose they had named Bruce.

The incident left Bloomingdale resident Pam Smith asking if the moose really needed to be shot.

“The question is was there were any alternatives? They didn’t ask if there were any alternatives,” Smith said.

Smith said she was upset and skeptical that the DEC couldn’t remove the moose’s body alive as easily as they did after it was killed.

“What’s the difference of them taking him out sedated or dead?” Smith said.

Durfey said last week they didn’t want to sedate the moose for fear it would cause the animal more pain and distress.

“The sedatives would only have immobilized the moose. He still would have been conscious and in the water,” Durfey said. “We didn’t want to put him through that.”

Signs carried by the protestors read “Department of Executing Critters,” “Moose Abuse No Time for Bruce,” “No Moose loitering violators will be shot” and “I can’t speak for myself. You are my voice!” with a picture of the moose on the page.

Jennifer McCaffrey of Brushton said that she made the almost two-hour drive to show support for the moose and be a voice for him.

“Just felt really strongly that the moose shouldn’t have been killed,” McCaffrey said.

McCaffrey said the DEC should have allowed nature to take its course without

human intervention.

Jason Oconnell, of Brushton, said the DEC shouldn’t have shot the moose who was inside the wildlife preserve and not hurting anyone.

“We’re in the Adirondack Park. It’s the biggest park in the country, and that’s what it’s for,” Oconnell said. “It’s for the animals in the woods not rich people from downstate on vacation.”

The protest was organized

by Brenda Rose DaddsWoodward, a wildlife photographer from Dannemora.

Dadds-Woodward came to see the moose every day while it stood in the river.

On Sept. 25, she cancelled her plans when she heard the news the moose had been killed.

“I actually just started crying at the computer. I was going to bring my son to see the moose that day, too,” Dadds-Woodward said. “My son said, ‘Those are mean people. They could have saved him.’”

She started organizing the protest right away. Of the almost 80 people who agreed to attend via the event’s Facebook page, nine attended.

Dadds-Woodward said she was disappointed with the small turnout of protestors but she plans to do more.

“I want a change in the DEC,” Dadds-Woodward said. “They need to get more educated on how to help (the animals) not just kill them.”

Dadds-Woodward said she wants to get in touch with people in the DEC and try to understand why the moose was killed and see what can be done to stop the killing of more wildlife like the one she called Bruce.

“If they are going to fight us, we are going to just keep protesting until those changes are made,” DaddsWoodward said.

Ticonderoga woman overcomes breast cancer Wendy Shaw’s ordeal nears an end

By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — “Every day may not be good, but there’s something good every day.”

That’s been Wendy Shaw’s mantra the past three years as she’s battled breast cancer.

“That’s been my saying through this whole cancer journey,” the Ticonderoga woman said. “And it’s true. Something good has happened every day of my cancer treatment — a phone call, a visitor, a card — every day something happened to help me.

I’ll never forget the day Barb (friend Barb Greer) brought me a glass of iced tea. She’ll never know what that meant to me at that moment.”

Shaw learned in October 2009 she had ductal carcinoma, the most common form of breast cancer.

“Cancer gives you a new outlook on life,” she said. “What you thought were big problems are suddenly small problems. I appreciate every little thing now.”

Shaw had a right breast lumpectomy in January 2009 and began radiation treatments five days a week at the C.R. Wood Cancer

Wendy Shaw, kneeling right, a breast cancer survivor, participated in Cindy’s Retreat, a weekend gathering for breast cancer patients and survivors at Silver Bay. Center at Glens Falls Hospital. Those treatments lasted through April.

During that period another tumor was

Symptoms of breast cancer Breast cancer is a disease that claims the lives of so many people. Although many deaths cannot be prevented due to the severity and late stage of the breast cancer, early diagnosis goes a long way to improving mortality rates and sending individuals into remission faster. Knowing the symptoms of breast cancer can help women and men improve their chances of surviving the disease after diagnosis, as the earlier the disease is diagnosed, the better a person's chance at survival.

Not every person experiences symptoms of breast cancer. That's because, in its very early stages, breast cancer may not exhibit any symptoms or, if a tumor is present, it may be too small to detect during a breast self-exam. Furthermore, there are different types of breast cancer, each of which may have its own distinct symptoms. Some of these symptoms may mimic symptoms of more benign conditions as well, making it difficult to determine if symptoms are indicative of breast cancer or another ailment.

But even though the following symptoms will not necessarily lead to a breast cancer diagnosis, it's still important to visit your doctor for further clarification if any of them appear.

•swelling of all or part of the breast •skin irritation or dimpling •breast pain •nipple pain or the nipple turning inward •redness, scaliness or thickening of the nipple or breast skin •a nipple discharge other than breast milk •a lump in the underarm area •changes in the size or symmetry of breasts •presence of unusual lumps

found on her left breast. It also required surgery, but was found to be benign.

Following the radiation treatments, Shaw was placed on a drug regiment to battle the disease. She suffered side affects, including the growth of tumors throughout her body.

Those tumors also proved to be benign, but more surgery was needed to remove them.

A year after her initial diagnosis, Shaw developed seromas in her right breast. A seroma is a pocket of clear fluid that sometimes develops after surgery. The seromas were drained every two weeks until doctors learned they were being caused by damaged tissue, the result of the earlier radiation treatments. The solution was two more surgeries, including a bilateral mastectomy in February this year.

“I can’t say enough good things about the people at the C.R. Wood Cancer Center,” Shaw said. “They were so wonderful to me, so caring and thoughtful. They helped me through everything.”

The results have been positive, Shaw is now cancer free, although she faces one more re-constructive surgery. That will bring the total to eight surgeries in the past three years. She’s lost count of the other medical procedures she’s endured.

Shaw continued to work in the Ticonderoga Central School District administration office through most of her treatments.

Ol’ Station

“I would work half days and then leave for treatments at 2 p.m. in Glens Falls,” she said.

“It was very difficult. Everyone at school has been fantastic. They donated sick days, gave me rides. When I came home from my mastectomy my house was full of cards, flowers and food.

“I can’t tell you how fortunate we are to live in the town with such caring people,” she said.

The community also held two benefits for Shaw, a golf tournament at Ti Country Club and a spaghetti dinner at the Knights of Columbus.

To help repay that kindness Shaw planned a benefit golf outing for Colleen Ashline, a friend who also had breast cancer. Ashline is cancer free now.

Shaw recently attended Cindy’s Retreat, a weekend gathering for breast cancer patients and survivors at Silver Bay. “It made me realize I’m one of the fortunate ones,” she said. “There was a woman there who had the exact same cancer I had, but hers has moved to her bones. She has 13, 15 and 20-year-old children. My heart goes out to her.

“It was very emotional,” she said of the retreat. “I’m part of a sisterhood of women who have fought cancer. We all laughed together, we cried together.”

While Shaw nears the end of her cancer ordeal, she acknowledges it’s been a difficult road.

“There were days I didn’t want to get out of bed,” she said. “But my family and my friends were always there to encourage me, to keep me going. I don’t know where I’d be without their support.”

Besides learning to appreciate family and friends, Shaw has also learned something about herself.

“We all have an inner strength,” she said.

“We may not realize it until we face a crisis in our life, but it’s there.”

When Shaw was told she was finally cancer free, a flood of emotions came out.

“There are a lot of emotions,” she said.

“You’re happy, but you feel badly for the other women who still have cancer. Mostly, I think I was relieved. It has been three years; it seemed like it would never end. But it will — just one more surgery.”

October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Shaw is hopeful her story can raise awareness of the disease and help others.

“Keep calm, carry on,” Shaw said. “That’s what they always tell breast cancer patients.

It’s good advice.”

Exploring the different types of breast cancer

•Medullary carcinoma: This is a less common form of breast cancer. It is a type of IDC, but it gets its name from the color of the tu-

mors, which are close to the color of brain tissue, or medulla. Medullary carcinoma is quite visible during mammograms because

the cancer cells are large and form a barrier between healthy tissue and tumors.

•Infiltrating lobular carcinoma (ILC): The American Cancer Society says that 1 in 10 women will be diagnosed with ILC, which originates in the milk-producing glands of the breast. In ILC, abnormal cells inside the lobule begin to divide and break through the wall of the lobule to invade the surrounding connecting tissues.

•Tubular carcinoma: This is a common cancer for women ages 50 and older. When viewed under the microscope, tubular carcinoma cells have a distinctive tubular structure. There is a 95 percent survival rate for tubular carcinoma.

•Mucinous carcinoma (Colloid): This is a rare condition in which the breast cancer cells within the breast produce mucus. The mucus and the cancer cells join together to form a jelly-like tumor. The tumors may feel like bumpy water balloons, but some are too small to detect with the fingers.

•Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC): This is a rare and very aggressive type of breast cancer that causes the lymph vessels in the skin around the breast to become blocked.

The cancer gets its name from the appearance of a swollen, red and inflamed breast.

Women are advised to get a baseline mammogram in their mid-30s and then annual mammograms starting at age 40. Early detection is generally vital for any form of cancer and is especially so for breast cancer.

Breast cancer is a universal term to describe several different cancers that form in and around the breasts. Breast cancer types are generally categorized based on where the illness begins, most often in the ducts or lobules, the parts of the female anatomy responsible for producing breast milk.

About 226,870 new cases of invasive breast cancer in American women will be diagnosed in 2012, while more than 22,000 Canadian women will be diagnosed with breast cancer over that same time period.

The National Breast Cancer Foundation lists seven different types of breast cancer.

Here's a look at them.

•Ductal carcinoma in-situ (DCIS): This is an early form of breast cancer that refers to the presence of abnormal cells inside a milk duct in the breast. This type of cancer is generally found during mammograms and is considered non-invasive. This means it hasn't spread yet. This makes treatment for DCIS easier than for other forms of breast cancer.

•Infiltrating ductal carcinoma (IDC): Also known as invasive ductal carcinoma, this is the most common type of breast cancer. According to BreastCancer.org, roughly 80 percent of all breast cancer cases are IDC. This cancer starts in the ducts, but "infiltrating" means that it spreads to the surrounding breast tissue. Over time, IDC can spread to the lymph nodes and possibly to other areas of the body.

Adirondack Museum director reflects on his first year

By Andy Flynn

andy@denpubs.com BLUE MOUNTAIN LAKE — David Kahn’s first year as the Adirondack Museum’s executive director went “very fast,” and the culture shock of moving from sunny San Diego to the snowy Adirondacks wasn’t as harsh as he expected.

“There were all these things that people were warning me about, that I’d be lost in the drifts, and I don’t think we saw any snow until the end of January,” Kahn said. “And then the next big warning was the blackflies were going to eat me alive. I never saw a blackfly ... So I guess I’ll get mine at some point, and things have gone pretty well.”

Kahn celebrated his one-year anniversary on Sept. 5, and without snow or blackflies to distract him, he was able to concentrate on moving the Adirondack Museum into a new era of interpreting history for the masses.

When Kahn was hired, the Adirondack Museum’s trustees indicated that they wanted to take a fresh look at their exhibits and programs and think about where they should be headed in the future. And so they’ve spent a lot of time working on a master plan, which is expected to be finished by the spring of 2013.

“That will give us a blueprint as to where we want to head with some of our exhibits,” Kahn said, adding that they always look for ways to make exhibits more interactive and engaging for contemporary audiences.

Museum staff spent some of the summer conducting audience research, including an online study and “intercept” interviews with residents and visitors in several Adirondack communities, including Blue Mountain Lake, Old Forge, Lake George, Lake Placid and Saranac Lake.

“It’s always interesting doing this sort of work because different demographic segments have different perspectives as to what they’re interested in,” Kahn said. “Older visitors are really interested in Great Camps, and younger people not so much. In some cases, they didn’t even know what they were. Younger adults were very interested in winter sports, and older folks not so much.”

During their interviews, staff found that the more immersive the environment the museum creates, the better.

“Actually getting them into a historical environment was

what really seemed to make people’s juices flow,” Kahn said.

So the staff came up with a few preliminary ideas, such as creating a mining experience where the visitor walks into a simulated mine shaft or an activity that would involve breaking up a river log jam. Kahn said the museum relies on this kind of audience research.

“If you are going to put money and effort into doing something, you ought to make sure you get it right,” Kahn said.

Overall, it was a good summer for the Adirondack Museum, according to Kahn, even with all the sunny skies and warm weather that typically drives people outside, into the Adirondack woods and waters instead of inside a museum.

Rainy days are better for visitation.

“Visitation was down a bit, and I guess we’re hearing that from some of the other museums in the park as well,” Kahn said. “Whether that has to do with the good weather or other factors, it’s hard to say, but it was a good year from our perspective in that we did some interesting experimentation.”

One of this year ’s highlights was the museum’s new audio tour with 20 different voices from a variety of backgrounds. Museum staff moved the admission desk from the gift shop to the lobby of the Visitor Center. In its place, they

HOSS’S COUNTRY CORNER

On Sept. 12, 1959, the long-last steamboat Buttercup was found on the bottom of Long Lake by amateur scuba divers. The Buttercup was the first steamboat on Long Lake. It was scuttled by guides in 1885 because it was taking away their business of rowing visitors and sportsmen through the lakes in their guideboats. The Buttercup was part of a grand scheme put forward

by Thomas C. Durant and his son, William West Durant to provide a continuous comfortable transportation route from Raquette Lake to Saranac Lake by railroad car and steamboat. The Buttercup is on display behind the town offices on State Route 30.

placed the audio tour pickup/drop-off. The audio tour functions as an orientation to the Adirondack Museum.

“We have all these buildings — we have 22 buildings and 65,000 square feet of exhibit space — and one of the things we’ve learned over the years is that many first-time visitors are really surprised when they get here and they had no idea that this was going to be as big and comprehensive as it is,” Kahn said. “Traditionally we’ve not had an orientation experience, an introductory film or an introductory exhibit. Basically in the past we’ve given people a map and said, ‘Go to it.’ And so introducing the tour is an attempt to kind of bring the whole story together and focus the visit on some themes relating to change that’s taken place in the Adirondacks over time. We wanted visitors to hear from Adirondackers.”

Although the museum is open from Memorial Day to the end of October, staff is busy throughout the year working on exhibits and programs for the future, fundraising activities, taking care of the artifact collection, and studying other museums. Staff recently traveled to museums around North America, including cities such as Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minn.; Ottawa, Canada; Springfield, Ill.; Monterey, Calif.; and Atlanta, Ga. “You’re always trying to keep the staff fresh, on top of things, so that the visitor experiences will reflect what’s going on in museums around the country,” Kahn said.

As for the 2013 season, the museum will be installing a new exhibit featuring paintings and photography that relates to different representations of the Adirondack wilderness. There is currently no title, as curators want to take their time naming the exhibit.

“What does wilderness mean exactly?” Kahn said. “That’s a term that the academics would debate endlessly, whether there is such a thing or there isn’t. So that’s why we’re going to be very careful about what the title is.”

Some of the programming for the future will focus on contentious land-use issues that currently face communities in the Adirondack Park.

“We’d like to move things more in the contemporary direction,” Kahn Said. “There are a lot of opinions out there as to how things should be going, so we think we should be part of that discussion,” Kahn said.

Letter to the Editor To the News Enterprise: Howard Hammond’s questions the science surrounding the negative impacts of invasive species, Eurasian watermilfoil for one, but he presents only anecdotes, not science to support his position. Here is my anecdote.

I live on Augur Lake. Eighty-four percent of the houses were under $100K assessed value in 2011. There are no “million dollar homes” Beginning in the late 1970s, Eurasian milfoil choked as much as one third of the lake’s surface with dense mats of plant material, about 125 acres. In some places entire bays were choked.

No one gave a hoot about bass. One could not get a boat out from the dock. The milfoil would foul propellers, stalling the engines.

Children could not swim in the milfoil around docks. Eventually, the lake association purchased a weed cutter. People mowed the lake to get their boats out to milfoil-free water or to have an area to swim. Some owners purchased personal use weed cutters.

Residents spent the summer season mowing the lake as much as recreating on or in it.

Cottage rental declined.

During the worst of the problem property owners, I among them, applied for and received reduced property assessments. All it took was a picture of the surface milfoil mat around my dock. Other property owners in the county had to make up the difference in tax revenue because the Augur properties had lost value due to the invasive milfoil.

That’s an economic loss, all around.

I estimate that, collectively, the property owners have spent over $100,000 in an at-

tempt to restore the surface of Augur Lake to a reasonable state for boating, swimming and fishing. In 2010 the owners voted to establish a special plant control district, a tax district, to deal with the invasive milfoil. For sure, more taxes are a negative impact of an invasive species.

It pains me to think Augur Lake’s milfoil problems may have been the result of some catch-addict bass fisherman who put milfoil in Augur Lake just so he could pull out a bass a minute. To help those of us who suffer from boater imported invasive species, I would suggest that a $10 Invasive Species fee be added to each pro fishermen’s tournament entrance fee in New York waters.

With entrance fees in the thousands of dollars, $10 won’t be noticed. Send that money to the Town of Chesterfield: Aquatic Nuisance Plant District, 1 Vine St. Keeseville, NY 12944.

Of course Hammonds’ entire premise is that the only purpose of a lake is to raise bass, a false premise, and the only reason to fish is to catch bass: truly an addict’s delusion.

Years ago an Augur resident trolled by my dock. He was out nearly every evening. One evening as he passed by I asked him if he had caught anything.

He said: "No, but it doesn’t matter.” A true fisherman, out enjoying the most beautiful place in the world. Well it would be if there were no milfoil mats.

Rafting death from page 1 Essex County Coroner Walter Marvin Jr. authorized transport of Blake's body by State Police and NYS DEC personnel to Chain Lakes Road. Marvin transported the body to the Adirondack Medical Center Morgue in Saranac Lake, for an autopsy scheduled to be conducted on Sept. 28. As of press time, the autopsy results were not publically available.

State Police determined that Rory Fay was intoxicated while transporting Clar and Blake on the rafting trip.

State Police consulted with Hamilton County District Attorney Marsha Purdue and Fay was arrested for criminally negligent homicide regarding the death of Blake.

Fay was subsequently arraigned before Indian Lake Town Justice Judy Durken and remanded to the Hamilton County Jail in lieu of $50,000 bail or $100,000 bond.

Fay remained in Jail as of press time, according to New York State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigation Investigator Jonathan Garrow.

The Hamilton County DA said she cannot say if additional charges against Fay or the Hudson River Rafting Company will be pursued until the police complete their investigation.
