Hirtles save dachshunds By John Gereau johng@denpubs.com
C R O W N P O I N T — R e v. David Hirtle relaxed in a large easy chair as his two rambunctious dachshunds tossed toys at his feet, pleading for him to play fetch. As he reached for one of the stuffed objects, a small head peaked around the corner from the next room. And, just as quickly, disappeared. “There she is, there’s Zelda,” Hirtle said, referring to his most recent foster dog. “She has a very difficult time with men — especially their feet.” “What do you think that says?” he added, alluding to the abuse the small dog had

Garden club to sell holiday wreaths Order deadline Oct. 26 By Fred Herbst
fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — Autumn just arrived, but members of the Carillon Garden Club are thinking about Christmas. The club is taking orders for Christmas wreaths and kissing balls until Oct. 26. “The sale of beautiful wreaths and kissing balls has been an important fund raiser for the club for over 15 years and enables the club to beautify areas in Ticonderoga and Hague with special seasonal plantings,” said Betty Rettig, club president. “Repeat and new orders are sincerely appreciated.” Wreaths come in 12-, 18-, 24- and 36-inch sizes and may be purchased plain, with a bow only or decorated with pine cones, berries and bows. Bows and berries come in red or
burgundy. Prices range from $15 for a plain 12-inch wreath to $60 for a 36-inch decorated wreath. Decorated kissing balls are available for $30. To place an order call call Jackie Viestenz at 546-9855 or any garden club member. “Club members will be making the bows, wiring the cones and then gathering in November to transform the wreaths into lovely holiday decorations,” Rettig said. Wreaths will be delivered just before Thanksgiving. The club meets on the third Thursday each month, March through December, at the Hague Community Center. It offers a variety of programs of interest to gardeners and those who appreciate nature. The public is welcome to attend the programs. The Carillon Garden Club is a 501 (C) (3) organization and is part of District IV of the Federated Garden Clubs of New York State and the Nation Garden Club, Inc. For more information about the club call Rettig at 5857247 or First Vice President Joyce Cooper at 585-2640.

Playground ponies to be restored By Fred Herbst
fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — Local artists are being asked to pony up their talents to help children.
Artists are being sought to assist with a playground project at Ticonderoga Elementary School. The young-children’s playground is being renovated to make it safer and more appealing. An old, concrete wall and teeter-totter will be removed and three new pieces of
equipment will be installed. The remaining pieces will be given a face-lift. Among the pieces to be renovated are playground ponies that children can ride. “There are four of these little ponies that will be temporarily removed to facilitate the renovation and will be put back into place,” said Chattie Van Wert, director of the Ticonderoga Revitalization Alliance, which is assisting with the project, “but not before they are colorfully painted. “We are looking for artistic painters who are interested in painting one of these ponies,” she said. “Ideally they will each become a ‘horse of a different color,’ a unique design that will appeal to the children.” Van Wert said the playground ponies will be set up at the Downtown Gallery at 119
Montcalm St., where artists can work. “The ponies will be cleaned, prepped and propped for the artists and the paint will be supplied,” Van Wert said. “You can bring your own brushes or, if you prefer, we can provide those, too. All you have to do is show up and create your own special design.” The ponies will be available at the Downtown Gallery Oct. 14, when they are scheduled to return to the playground. Artists interested in painting a pony can contact Van Wert at 593-9093 or ChattieVW@ticonderoga-alliance.org. The committee leading the playground renovation project includes Scott Hearburg, Michele Eicher, John Bartlett, Malinda Chapman and Carrie Fingland.

TICONDEROGA — As part of its annual Credit Union Week celebration, the Ticonderoga Federal Credit Union will host its third annual Shred Fest Monday Oct. 15 and Tuesday, Oct. 16. The free paper-shredding event aims to increase public awareness of identity theft prevention. Community members are invited to bring their confidential documents to be shredded at their local TFCU office during event hours. Documents will be shredded on site in a mobile shredding truck. The first 10 participants at each location will receive a free TFCU flashlight. Paper, folders, envelopes, check registers, paper bound by staples, paper clips and spiral binding can be shredded, however, documents bound with metal binder clips cannot. In exchange for the free service, TFCU asks participants to bring a non-perishable food item for donation to the local food pantries. All of the shredded paper will be recycled and the proceeds from the recycling will be donated to food pantries in Ticonderoga, Moriah and Elizabethtown. “Identity theft can destroy your credit and your good name,” said Shawn Hayes, TFCU president and CEO. “But through a few simple precautions, members can stand up to identity thieves and avoid becoming a victim.” Shredding documents containing personal identifying information before throwing them away is one of the most important ways consumers can prevent identity theft. Free shredding will be offered at the Ticonderoga office, 1178 NYS Route 9N, Monday, Oct. 15, 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.; at the POrt Henry office, 43 Meacham St., Tuesday, Oct. 16, 9 to 11 a.m.; and at the Elizabethtown office, 7519 Court St., Tuesday, Oct. 16, 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Hayes offered the following suggestions to protect against identity theft: — Shred first, trash last. Never throw out documents with sensitive information until you’ve shredded them. — Be suspicious of telephone and e-mail offers regarding your personal information or accounts. Never give personal information over the phone and never click on unfamiliar email links. — Check financial statements regularly to make sure there is no unexplained activity. Notify your financial institution immediately if you discover any erroneous or suspicious

APA: use common sense when classifying Boreas Ponds
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 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 publicly 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. Besides snowmobiling, it would be similar to the 10-mile round-trip trek to Great Camp Santanoni in the town of Newcomb. The fact is, 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 narrowminded 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? A few folks might gas up at the Sunoco in Schroon Lake on their way south after hiking into Boreas Ponds, but just how much money is going to be spent in North Hudson? Not much, if any. 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 — with its miles of wellmaintained existing roadways and beautiful main lodge — 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.

Will we ever see a return to civility?
H
as today’s society lost all concern 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, not upon personal attacks which often include a distortion of the facts, name calling and a low blow leveled by one adversary against another. By not demanding 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 democratDan Alexander ic state, but when the Thoughts from Behind the Pressline escalation of distortion, closed-minded delay tactics and mutual mistrust enter the equation, all chances of a satisfactory resolution are lost. Now we have powerful lobbying efforts by well-funded and substantially positioned power brokers and one-sided, self-interested watchdog organizations like today’s media adding to the noise. It’s no wonder common sense and civility have become a lost means of resolving the issues that are widening the divide among us. We simply can’t continue to justify the means used by our leaders and ourselves if we seek to address the root cause of the issues we face. 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. Look no further than the Tea Party or the We are the 99% movements gaining traction in the grassroots of society today. In many cases their actions are marginalized by the well-seated power brokers who dismiss their views and work to neutralize their efforts by painting them as radicals instead of addressing the issues they hold dear.

Letters to the Editor
Travelers thankful
Food pantry needs assistance To the Times of Ti:
Ti the Times of Ti: On behalf of the California & Grand Canyon travelers (from Ticonderoga) I would like to thank the local community for their generous donations during our bottle drive on Sept. 8. Our group was able to raise almost $550 in three hours. This money will be use to defer the cost of the trip and for spending money. We would also like to once again thank Ginny and her staff at the redemption center for counting over 10,000 bottles and cans for us. Successful fundraisers like this one make educational travel possible for our local teens. Maria Bagneschi Group Leader Ticonderoga
Failure to compromise a problem To the Times of Ti: Dan Alexander ’s “viewpoint” of this past week and the letter from Jerry Rambach of Saranac two weeks ago both have merit with regard to our coming presidential election! Mr. Alexander ’s comparison of what is being said by both candidates and the stretching of the truth by both gives readers an honest opinion! I believe it may be a little slanted by Mr. Alexander ’s own political leanings, but all in all it brought out the fact that politics is not a place for the weak at heart! Mr. Rambach’s letter talks of “Competing philosophies” and goes into great length bringing the history of capitalism up as the main mover in our economy! Again I feel it is slanted to the writer ’s point of view! Please understand I have no problem with a writer putting to paper his/her point of view as I have done so hundreds of times! Our country was founded by individuals all having points of views that many times conflicted! Unfortunately others and I are sometimes guilty of not compromising and pushing our way of thinking on others! It is my view this “my way or the highway attitude” is why our country is in need of change! I don’t believe for one minute that our president doesn’t understand capitalism is needed if we are to succeed in a world economy! However, I do believe there are many who don’t understand that capitalism needs to be blended with other economic systems such as a “mixed economy” that incorporates some government involvement into a market-based economy! History tells us if leave everything up to capitalist the rest of society would still be working in sweat factories and safety in the work place would not exist! History also tells us it took government action to end these practices! Today we hear many capitalist complaining about government regulation and I am sure there may be some regulation that needs oversight! This is where our two candidates for president differ the most! One wants no regulation, Mr. Romney, while the other, President Obama, feels some regulation is needed to insure the safety of the American worker, our banking system and a host of others like food production! Regardless of what I or Mr. Alexander and Mr. Rambach write every American needs to try and cut through the maze of what is said by both candidates and make a decision as to what is best for our country! Between now and Election Day both sides will try to persuade us their view is best! There will be those who will use slander and lies to help their candidate but I believe Americans will see through this! Our republic will stand long after the naysayers have left for uncharted pastures! Gary P. Guido Ticonderoga
Firefighters help firefighters To the Times of Ti: On Sept. 16 the Moriah Volunteer Fire Department held a benefit breakfast to help support two local volunteer fire departments that lost everything due to Tropical Storm Irene in 2011. As a volunteer fire department like ours, we know how important it is to have all the support, not just from your community, but also other local fire departments. We were very honored to be able to put something together and host it in such a short notice. We were also very grateful for the wonderful turn out and for all the help we got that day. It was truly a community effort. We believe it may not always be about the amount of money we can raise, but more of just being there for a fellow firefighter in their time of need. James Michener Public Information Officer Moriah Fire Department
While visiting the Crown Point Food Pantry (sponsored by Sacred Heart Parish, United Methodist Church of Crown Point and First Congregational Church) housed at the United Methodist Church here in Crown Point, I was distressed to see that we are empty! The last few years have been devastating on everyone. Markets fluctuated, crises overseas, loss of major employers in our area. All of this sent our local economy into uncertainty. We all have felt the pinch! In the past month, our parish (First Congregational Church) has gone shopping and provided many necessary items to get us through the summer months. I must assume that the other churches have done the same. Our food pantry has limped along and made a grand effort to ensure that our community has had something when nothing was available. Today I bring to your attention the urgent need to restock and thus ensure our neighbors have food. I’d like to challenge each of us to spend, as we are blessed, an additional $5 for each of the coming three weeks when we go shopping and pick-up extra canned goods, non-perishables and paper items specifically for the food pantry here in Crown Point. This will not cure the problem but it will help to ensure that our families have something on their tables when their resources are low. Let’s join together as a church family and ensure that our neighbors have resources available to feed the children, moms and dads as well as the elderly. Let your friends and family know about this opportunity to share with our neighbors! Get your can (or paper/non-perishable) to church! A collection basket will be placed on the platform...veggies welcome! If you are not a member of First Congregational Church, speak to your pastor or take your food donation to your local food pantry. Together, we can! Pastor David and Kathy Hirtle First Congregational Church Crown Point
Response to column To the Times of Ti: Howard Hammonds 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 attempt 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 NY 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. Gordon Howard Keeseville
Protest really not needed over a moose killing
A
rab Spring. Occupy Wall Street. Save Horace Nye. Bruce the Moose. One of these things is not like the other. I completely understood when people expressed some concern or were upset with the fact when the now fabled moose met his end last week in the Wilmington Notch. But to organize a protest and vigil by Keith Lobdell over the matter? Really? On Saturday, around 10 people showed up to protest the killing of the moose, which was about 10 more people than needed to be there. There are just so many things that I see wrong with holding a protest and vigil over the shooting of a moose that was injured and needed to be taken out of its misery. Foremost, the fact that it cheapens the whole protest and vigil movement. The gluttony of Wall Street may very well be a worthy cause to protest. The need for freedom and revolution is definitely a worthy cause. The death of a moose isn’t even a cause, let alone worthy. It’s an event. What’s to protest here? Let the injured animal die the way nature intended? Let a pack of wild dogs descend onto the banks of the Ausable, tormenting the moose until they go in for what I imagine would be a very painful and slow kill, starting to eat it while the once majestic creature gasps for its last breath. Sure, it’s the Lion King, “circle of life ending,” but a little on the cruel side, if you ask me. Hakuna Matata. Could it be because we see moose as a majestic creature? If this were a coyote, skunk or other more, shall we say, undesireable creature, would there be a “Chuck the Skunk” or “Don Coyote” tribute page on Facebook? Come on, be honest with yourself. I have heard police brutality thrown out there as a reason to protest. What? I will give you that there were some parts of the story that seem a little out of sorts, but do we really want police or DEC officers going up to a rather large animal that is acting strangely, risking their lives to see if it is OK, although it would be a great storyline for the movie sequel, “End of Watch: Adirondacks” (come on, if you don’t know what that phrase means, then you deserve a spoiler alert). Let me make this clear. If you had a problem with the way the moose-icide went down, that’s fine. A barrage of paintballs can be a little extreme, especially if you know how it feels to get hit by said barrage (it’s good to make allies in paintball wars, not enemies). But to organize a vigil and protest over the matter? I don’t get it. I have seen vigils for missing children and family members; protests against drugs, violence and intolerance; communities coming together to remember and honor those who were victims of tragedy. So I’m sorry if I am not moved by this movement to shed a tear or take up the cross over an animal, no matter how majestic it may be.

Substance Abuse Prevention Month observed By Fred Herbst
fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA — October is National Substance Abuse Prevention Month. The attention garnered by such a declaration is welcomed 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 few 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 be 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 responsibly; that they can have a good time without alcohol.” The Prevention Team has no special events planned for National Substance Abuse Pre- Doug Terbeek, executive director of the Prevention Team, sees the need for vention Month, al- continuing substance abuse education in the county. though it will observe Above the Influence Day on Oct. 18 and Red nosable substance abuse or dependence Ribbon Week Oct. 23-31.

Art tour to include Port Henry Oct. 5 and 6 By Fred Herbst
fred@denpubs.com PORT HENRY — Port Henry will be a “village of public art” this weekend. The community will be part of the second annual Adirondack Coast and Boquet Valley Studio Tour Friday and Saturday, Oct. 5 and 6. Port Henry’s art attractions will be the focus of free tours starting at the downtown information booth 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. A map and descriptive brochure covering the full range of art will be offered. “Over the last two years, local citizens have worked individually and in teams to create over a dozen large works of permanent murals and signs that will be showcased,” said Frank Martin, who will lead the tours along with members of the ph7 committee. Port Henry’s historic architecture will also be part of the tour. “Linda Smyth had the idea for all of the murals and with help from some children and friends painted them,” explained Jackie Viestenz of the ph7 committee. “The only one she didn’t paint is the Johnny Podres sign at the south end of town. Willie Grant made that on a commission from Pat Salerno. “Linda is an artist and is involved with the Boquet River Art Guild,” Viestenz added. “On that weekend many artists and craftsmen will have their studios open from Port Kent to Port Henry. Instead of having her studio open, Linda decided to organize this tour of the public art.” Smyth is out-of-town and will not be part of the tour, although her work will be. “Attractions include large new murals depicting historic street scenes, a tropical jungle, the historic headquarters of the Witherbee Sherman Company, and an unusual restored ‘ghost sign’ with historic lettering,” Martin said. “A new en-
try sign on the south end of the village celebrates native son Johnny Podres who helped lead the Brooklyn Dodgers to a World Series victory in 1955. “Visitors can also explore a beautifully-crafted new stone fountain, see a collection of quilts and have lunch at the newly-reopened and historically-restored Foote’s Port Henry Diner—one of the oldest in the country,” he said. Port Henry’s Iron Center Interpretive Museum, documenting the area’s iron mining history, will be also be open. “We hope to get people to think of Port Henry as a ‘village of public art’,” Martin said. “There may even be some new projects this fall.” The tour will include: — Port Henry’s village park. Near the information booth there is a large mural depicting the Witherbee Sherman Company headquarters that is now the town hall and a new mural lists important dates in Port Henry’s history. The park is hosting “Funky Folk,” a collection of wooden folk dressed to express the eclectic range of personalities to be found in Port Henry. —The Church Garden Mural, which is located behind the Mt. Moriah Presbyterian Church. Painted in the summer of 2012, this mural is a jungle of exotic plants and animals including primeval grasses, a ladybug, and a flamingo. — The Sherman Free Library, which is home to paintings of Crown Point, prominent citizens, a marble statue of a young girl and a “Birdseye view of Port Henry.” —The Flower Paintings located in the lobby of the Lee House. — The Bragg Brothers Vintage Sign, dating back to the 1930s. Port Henry artists recently restored this old “ghost sign” for the Bragg Brothers appliance store. — Foote’s Port Henry Diner, which is one of the oldest in the country and one of the few with wheels. Local residents recently helped with the historic research into colors and the
painting of the exterior. —The Johnny Podres entry sign, located on the south entry to Port Henry honors Podres, the Most Valuable Player of the 1955 World Series for the Brooklyn Dodgers. — The Farmer ’s Market Sign. — The Johnny Podres Mural, located on the former Wheelock’s Chevrolet building. It depicts Port Henry’s lakeside location, railroad history and grand architecture. On the left, is the famed pitcher and native son On the right, an iron miner shines his headlamp. — Historic street scene murals in the front windows of the former Belden-Edwards Ford Garage. The two grey-scale murals recreate historic photos of downtown Port Henry. The painting on the left shows Main Street look north circa 1910. The painting on the right shows the elegant old bandstand and fountain at the center of town. — The Iron Center Interpretive Museum. Set in the carriage house of the former Witherbee-Sherman headquarters, the museum tells the story of Moriah and Port Henry’s iron mining history. There are historic artifacts inside and out along with a walk-around model and diorama explaining how the mines operated. — Downtown Fountain. Recently, local citizens volunteered to rebuild the circular garden where, historically, the downtown bandstand had been located. — Directional Sign to the World. Located at the entry to Port Henry’s village beach, the sign has homemade arrows pointing to places around the world and close by. — Mountains of History Banners by Local Children. On the north and south entries to downtown Port Henry, are 12 banners with paintings of historic sites and stories chosen by local children. They include everything from iron mining to baseball to maritime history.
Hospice seeks school help Fund raising opportunities touted
MINEVILLE — High Peaks Hospice and Palliative Care has issued a challenge to all Essex County schools to help raise funds to benefit those in our communities who are facing a life-limiting illness during November, which is National Hospice & Palliative Care Month. For the month of November HPHPC is asking schools in Essex County to come up with and run fund raisers on its behalf. Some ideas for fund raising include, but are not limited to: car washes, dances, and penny collections. The funds raised will then be donated to HPHPC for direct patient care. Hospice is covered by the Medicare Hospice Benefit as is Medicaid and most private carriers but these reimbursements covers only 85 percent of actual costs of providing hospice’s specialized care. Hospice also never denies service due to inability to pay. High Peaks Hospice and Palliative Care (HPHPC) relies on the financial support of the communities they serve through fund raising efforts to make up the difference. “There are many benefits to students and schools who choose to participate in this fund raising effort,” according to Ingrid Roemischer of hospice. “These include community service credit for graduating seniors, and acknowledgement in local newspapers thanking schools supporting HPHPC’s services, patients, and patient families. Also, the funds raised will help support HPHPC’s effort to provide compassionate emotional spiritual, practical and bereavement support and comfort to our patients and patient families leading to an improved quality of life. Finally participants will gain the satisfaction of having done something worthwhile for their community!” Interested school administrators should contact Roemischer at 942-6513 or iroemischer@hphpc.org for further details and information. Fund raiser ideas need HPHPC pre-approval. High Peaks Hospice and Palliative Care, Inc., is a rural, not-for-profit health care corporation that brings dignity, comfort and peace at the end of life. Its mission states that HPHPC provides end of life care that listens with respect, cares with compassion, supports with choice and comforts with understanding.

The family of Kennedy Taylor would like to extend our sincere appreciation to all that showed Kennedy and our family so much kindness and generosity during Kennedy’s illness and her passing. The entire Moriah Central School community and The Town of Moriah made our Kennedy feel so very special with their fund raising events, hospital visits, cards, prayers and support... We will always remember the Run/Walk for Kennedy last March. Kennedy was able to sit on our porch and watch and greet hundreds of runners as they passed by our house. A special thank you goes to her classmates who showed how much they loved her, her teachers who made the trip to Burlington Children’s Hospital to visit her and a very special thanks to Missy and Bill Larrow who made Kennedy and our family know how much they cared. A Special thanks to the Moriah Girls chorus for the concert they gave Kennedy at our home and for the beautiful song they sang at her graveside service. We would also like to thank the Crown Point Fire Department and auxiliary for taking care of the food and allowing our family and friends to gather there following Kennedy’s Funeral Service. We would like to thank Harland Funeral Home for the time they took to make Kennedy’s Service so very special. A very special thank you for Mr. and Mrs. Hal Gold for giving so much to our Kennedy and our family. We would like to thank the staff at Fletcher Allen Children’s Hospital for the excellent care Kennedy received and the kindness they showed our family during her illness. We would like to thank everyone who donated food and financial support to help us through this very difficult time. Finally we would like to thank Mary Supernault for showing us what real friendship is all about. We are truly blessed to be a part of this community and we know our angel, Kennedy, is looking down on each and every one of you. Sincerely, Paulette and Leon Taylor, Amanda Taylor and Jeremiah, and Our Entire Family

endured. Zelda, Hirtle explained, was rescued from a puppy mill in Missouri along with a dozen other dogs. In her first two years of life she had already been forced to deliver two litters of puppies. She had lived her life in a cage with no real human interaction, had never had a toy or been outside. “The authorities in Missouri are cracking down on puppy mills,” Hirtle said. “They said find a home for these dogs, or shoot them.” Hirtle is pastor of the First Congregational Church of Crown Point. One of the dachshund rescue organizations Hirtle works with — All American Dachshund Rescue — agreed to take the dogs in and place them with foster homes in hopes they could be readied for adoption in a permanent home. All American is in Tennessee, so once foster families were located for the dogs, they had to be driven by volunteers, each taking a leg of the 1,200 mile trip. The final dog was placed in New Hampshire, Hirtle said, with volunteers driving 21 separate legs to complete the entire drive. When Zelda arrived at the Hirtles, she weighed just over 8 pounds. The first two nights she would not come out of her crate and howled throughout the night, but within a week she was beginning to respond to human interaction. And, she was the most social of all the dogs saved from the puppy mill. “It breaks my heart to think what they did to her,” Hirtle said. “But she is slowly coming around with lots of love, and is putting on some weight.” Hirtle has had dachshunds his entire life — between 10 and 15 in total —and just “loves the breed.” He and his wife Kathy decided 15 years ago to become involved in helping rescue dachshunds that had been abused, cast off or surrendered by their owner. He since has taken in more than 40 foster animals and helped screen and place them in “forever homes.” Along with All American Dachshund Rescue, Hirtle also works with Coast to Coast Dachshund Rescue based in Jacobus, Pa., to help rescue and place dogs with adoption homes. “I’m just glad to do what I can,” Hirtle said. “I just don’t know how anyone can abuse one of these little guys.” Hirtle currently has two miniature daschunds of his own, a 10year-old wire haired dog named Fred and a 2-year-old long haired dog named Emma. Squatting on the floor between the two, Hirtle spoke about how the family acquired Emma after their last dog Fritz passed away from a brain tumor. “After Fritz died, Fred went into a deep depression and refused to eat,” Hirtle said. “He was circling the drain, as they say.” So, Kathy and David took Fred to a breeder in Vermont to pick out a new housemate. When they arrived, 8-week-old Emma strolled over, took Fred by the leash and began walking him around. The couple knew they had found the newest addition to their family. “It saved his life,” David said. “Never underestimate how socially bonded dogs become with one another.” The Hirtles use that bond to help acclimate their foster dogs with their household, and help ready the dogs for their permanent homes that also may already have pets. On average, foster dogs spend about a month with their temporary households “until the right family comes along.” They make a trip to the veterinarian where they receive any needed shots, are spayed or neutered and are microchipped. When adopted, they often come with a crate, collar and toys. The adoption fee — usually around $300 — just covers the cost of the rescue organization. The foster families conduct a thorough screening of those who apply for adoption, do background checks, speak to veterinarians that may have dealt with the perspective adoptee and then conduct site visits at the family’s home. “These dogs have had enough trauma,” David said. “We want them to go to a forever home. We don’t want to see them returned.” And, it is often heart wrenching to give the foster dogs up, David said. “They become a part of the family,” he said. “It is so hard to let go, so it becomes very important that we are comfortable with where they are going.” Kathy, arriving home from her job at Gunnison’s Orchard, sat in another arm chair and Zelda immediately leaped into her lap, looking up longingly for a kind pat on the head. Kathy took her in her arms. “She is such a sweetie,” Kathy said. “She really needs another small dog that she can hang out with.” If it were up to David, they’d have three dachshunds. “And that would be the third,” he said, motioning to Zelda. Diane Irwin, president of All American Dachshund Rescue, said her organization places between 300-350 dachshunds a year in new homes, nearly 90 percent of which come from southern states like Alabama, Kentucky and Tennessee, where puppy mills flourish and the statistics of spaying and neutering are much lower. “Dachshunds are literally raining out of the sky down here,” Irwin said. “We get 5-10 requests a day to take dogs in and there is

absolutely no way we can handle that many, so they die.” Irwin said breeders will attend flea markets and sell puppies for as little as $100 apiece. Then, new owners find out that the breed comes with its own unique set of challenges. Dachshunds can be very stubborn, can sometimes nip and bark and can be hard to housebreak. “So, rather than take the time to understand the breed and teach them through consistency and reward, they dump them at a shelter,” Irwin said. Irwin praised the volunteers who open their homes to foster the dogs as well as those who offer their time, vehicle and gas to help transport the dogs from the south to the north where they are much more apt to be adopted. “If it were not for these generous people, a lot more of these loving little dogs would die down here, and they are not paid, they do it out of the goodness of their hearts,” she said. There are any number of ways to help save the unwanted dogs from being put down, Irwin said. People can volunteer to take in foster dogs, can help deliver the dogs or can just donate a small monetary amount each month to help defray costs. Learn more by emailing Irwin at aadrpresident@gmail.com or visit allamericandachshundrescue.org. Hirtle said the dachshund rescue has a simple motto when it comes to saving unwanted dogs. “Until there are none,” he said.

Schroon students assist Nicaraguan poor ty allowed many of these children to experience what it is like to have fun, be happy and know that someone cares. We visited Pajarito Azul (The Blue Parrot) a center for children and adults with disabilities, and spent time fostering friendships with those who lived there.” Whitney said the trip was success. “I feel that it was a huge success,” she said. “The February trip I went on consisted of 45 travelers and this past trip was only half of that. However, we accomplished more than what was expected. It went very well.” Mitchell Beers agreed. “I feel the trip I went on and all the other trips that the NC Mission of Hope does are great successes,” he said. “We helped so many people and learned so much. The help, however, is mutual. I went expecting to give and ended up receiving so much. The people who live in Nicaragua shared with me compassion, happiness and joy and in the end helped me just as much as I helped them. “On our trip we also continued the chain of mission trips that is of such a large importance in creating a lasting connection with the people that live there,” he added. “Most of all though, we grew hope in the hearts of so many grateful Nicaraguans, and that’s what’s imperative for the improvement of their lives, and the reason why we must continue to help.” The Nicaraguan trip gave Whitney an opportunity to re-connect with friends from her February visit. “The highlight of the trip for me was seeing the people who I had created such a bond with in ‘Nica’ again,” she said. “There are so many people there that I consider my family.” The trip was life-changing, Mitchell Beers said. “The highlight of the trip for me was when I realized that I’m not helping because it’s the right thing to do, but rather I was helping because there wasn’t any other choice in my heart,” he said. “Everyday there is ‘playground,’ a time when the local children living near Nicasa get to come inside the walls and interact with us. The time spent when I played with these loving and kind children, was the most important. They became a part of my family, and helped me strive to want to make the world they live in a better place.” Mitchell Beers said the experience is unforgettable. “The trip left so many lasting impressions on me,” he said. “The main thing I think I learned though was kindness. The people in Nicaragua live in such poor, poverty-stricken areas. Their everyday lives consist of trying to support the next meal for their families. Yet, even in the midst of such despair, they find some way to

fred@denpubs.com SCHROON LAKE — While many students spent the summer working on their tans, a trio of Schroon Lake residents trekked to Central America to help those less fortunate. Clare Whitney, Nicole Beers and Mitchell Beers were part of a Mission of Hope trip to Chiquilistagua, Nicaragua. It was second Mission of Hope trip for Whitney. “The day I returned from the trip in February, I knew that I had to return,” Whitney said. “My heart really never came back from Nicaragua, which is why I know I will never stop going, for as long as I can. The work that I can do for MOH and the people of Nicaragua will never end, and neither will my desire to do it.” Whitney and Mitchell Beers are Schroon Lake Central School students. Nicole Beers is a Schroon Lake graduate now attending St. Lawrence University. Whitney was so enthusiastic about her February trip, she convinced Nicole and Mitchell Beers to join her for the seven-day July adventure. “When Clare got back from her trip in February and told me how amazing it was, and how much need there is in Nicaragua, I knew I had to take part, help and learn,” Mitchell Beers said. The trip was made possible for Nicole Beers thanks to an award from St. Lawrence University. “I had hoped to go on a Mission of Hope trip since I was in high school after hearing the stories of so many others that had gone,” she said. “This summer I was finally fortunate to have the time and receive partial funding from my college through an internship fellowship award to go.” The students stayed at the North Country Mission of Hope’s compound, “Nicasa.” While there they worked to improve the lives of local residents. “We worked with Nicaraguan families to build home shelters for them to live in,” Mitchell Beers said. “We distributed rice and beans to impoverish families in rural areas. We painted buildings such as hospitals and schools, trying to cover up the dismal chipping paint and create a happier and healthier environment. We threw a birthday party for children who were orphaned because they were born with HIV, and celebrated with most of them their first birthday party ever. “ At the party there was a piñata, cookies, gifts for each child and a pencil case with school supplies in it,” he said. “The birthday par-

I am definitely more grateful for what I have and I know now that there is always a way to find happiness, and always the opportunity to be kind.” That kind of thinking impressed his sister. “It’s great to see the compassionate people that Mitchell and Clare have become,” Nicole Beers noted. Nicole Beers was also stuck by the plight of HIV-infected children, who are often abandoned by their families because of social stigma. “I was angered and saddened,” she said. “These children had contracted HIV through no fault of their own.” The St. Lawrence student, who hopes to attend medical school, recalled meeting a 7-year-old girl who could not walk at the birthday party organized by volunteers. “I got a painstaking glimpse of what it was like for this young girl to be an outcast from society,” Nicole Beers said. “I scooped her up in my arms and bore the weight of her frail body so she could celebrate her first birthday, although she was already 7 years old. Holding her I saw the signs of the disease progressing and I realized that this child might not have the chance to celebrate many more birthdays. And then she looked at me and smiled for the first time since I had seen her. Although I couldn’t cure her HIV, reclaim her childhood or take away her pain, for those few minutes I could show her that we cared. I could make her smile. In that moment I knew that I was living my purpose and changing my world.” All the Schroon residents hope to return to Nicaragua. “I will definitely go back to Nicaragua,” Mitchell Beers said. “I know that my journey in helping others isn’t over and I am sure that there are always needs for so many, and always a way to fulfill them.” A spiritually-based humanitarian organization, the North Country Mission of Hope is committed to fostering hope and empowering relationships with the people of Nicaragua through sustainable programs in education, health care, community and ecological development. It began in 1998 by responding to the devastating effects of Hurricane Mitch on the impoverished villages of Nicaragua.

www.timesofti.com 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

Breast Cancer Awareness • Times of Ti - 17 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. “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 her’s 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.”

How-to conduct a breast self-exam E
arly detection of breast cancer can improve survival rates and lessen the severity of treatment options. Routine mammograms are essential to catching signs of breast cancer early on but so can home-based breast exams. Over the years there has been some debate over the effectiveness of breast self-exams, or BSEs, is effective. Different breast cancer organizations have different views on the subject. Some studies have indicated that a BSE is not effective in reducing breast cancer mortality rates. Some argue that these exams also may put women at risk -- increasing the number of potential lumps found due to uncertainty as to what is being felt in the breast. This can lead to unnecessary biopsies. Others feel that a BSE is a good practice, considering that roughly 20 percent of breast cancers are found by physical examination rather than by mammography, according to BreastCancer.org. The American Cancer Society takes the position that a BSE is an optional screening tool for breast cancer. For those who are interested in conducting self-exams, here is the proper way to do so. * Begin with a visual inspection of the breasts. Remove clothing and stand in front of a mirror. Turn and pivot so the breasts can be seen at all angles. Make a note of your breasts' appearance. Pay special attention to any dimpling, puckering or oddness in the appearance of the skin. Check to see if there is any change in symmetry or size of the breasts. * Continue the examination with hands placed by the hips and then again with your hands elevated overhead with your palms pressed together. * Next you will move on to a physical examination. This can be done either by reclining on a bed or the floor or any flat surface. The exam also can be done in the shower. To begin examining the breasts, place the hand and arm for the breast you will be examining behind your head. Use the pads of your pointer, middle and ring fingers to push and massage at the breast in a clockwise motion. Begin at the outer portion of the breast, slowly working inward in a circular motion until you are at the nipple. Be sure to also check the tissue under the breast and by the armpit. * Do the same process on the opposite breast. Note if there are any differences from one breast to the other. If you find any abnormalities, mark them down on an illustration that you can bring to the doctor. Or if you can get an appointment immediately, draw a ring around the area with a pen so that you will be able to show the doctor directly where
you have concern. It is a good idea to conduct a BSE once a month and not when menstruating, when breasts may change due to hormone fluctuation. Frequent examinations will better acquaint you with what is normal with your breasts and better help you recognize if something feels abnormal.
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

What to expect after a mastectomy gery. The nursing staff will have a dressing over the surgical site, so you likely will not be able to see the results until a follow-up visit a week or more after the surgery. The doctor will advise proper home care to keep the area clean, and you should be aware of signs for infection. You may have surgical drains in place that will need to be watched and emptied. Some pain is common post-surgery, and pain medications may be prescribed. Adequate rest is urged for proper healing and to prevent opening the wound site. Dissolvable stitches are often used to close the wound, but some doctors prefer staples, which will be removed at a follow-up visit. Bruising and soreness are to be expected. A fever could be indicative of an infection.
Recovering from surgery Depending on the type of mastectomy performed, you may be left with anything from small scarring to a sunken, asymmetrical chest. You may want to avoid wearing or getting fitted for a new bra until the wound is completely healed and swelling has declined, which can take six weeks. Although strenuous exercise should be avoided, many patients will be given exercises to perform so they can regain movement and flexibility. Walking is an exercise that can be done immediately, but a doctor will be able to tell you when more exercises can be done. You may resume driving when pain medication is no longer needed. Practicing driving in a parking lot can help you figure out if there is any pain associated with turning the wheel or pressing down on the accelerator or brake.

size and fit a prosthetic to your body. Some cancer organizations offer free prostheses if insurance doesn't cover them. Mastectomy bras are another option. They generally have pockets in the cups that can hold breast forms. Some women choose to wear regular bras and simply slip forms inside. In cases where underarm lymph nodes had to be removed, there may be extensive scarring under the arms. Therefore. when trying on blouses and other shirts, take a close look at the armholes. Anything too loose may make you feel uncomfortable if it exposes scarring. Depending on how much tissue and breast wall has been removed, the chest may actually be concave. Wearing patterned shirts can help disguise this area and draw attention away. Fashion has come a long way, and there are now many different options in post-mastectomy clothing. Having a mastectomy is seldom easy, but knowing what to expect afterward can chase away some of the anxiety.

A
person's life changes when he or she receives a breast cancer diagnosis. There are many questions that need to be answered, and one of them is usually, "What are my options?" One of the treatment options in the fight against breast cancer is a mastectomy. Though the number of mastectomies performed each year was in decline a mere decade ago, more and more are now being performed thanks in large part to less invasive treatments. A study of more than 5,000 Mayo Clinic cancer patients revealed a 13 percent increase in the number of mastectomies performed between 2003 and 2006. A small but growing number of women are also electing to have "preventative" mastectomies, which could involve removing one or both of the breasts if there is a high genetic disposition to getting breast cancer in the family or if cancerous cells were detected in one breast. In 2006, the last year for which national data is available, more than 15 percent of breast cancer patients ages 18 to 39 had a healthy breast removed, says the University of Minnesota's Elizabeth Habermann, co-author of a 2010 study in the Journal of Clinical Oncology. A mastectomy is an umbrella term used to describe the removal of the entire breast, portions of the breast, or just the lymph nodes under the armpits. The main types of a mastectomy include: * Modified radical mastectomy: This involves removal of the entire breast, including the breast tissue, skin, areola, and nipple. In some cases, the lining over the chest muscles, as well as most of the underarm lymph nodes, is also removed. * Simple total mastectomy: This surgery involves removal of the entire breast, tissue, skin, areola and nipple. * Skin-sparing mastectomy: The breast tissue, nipple and areola are removed, but the skin is spared. Breast reconstruction surgery is typically performed immediately after. * Nipple-sparing mastectomy: Only the breast tissue is removed, leaving the skin, nipple, areola and chest wall muscles. Again, reconstruction of the breast is typically performed immediately afterward.

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.

County looking at $13 million budget ‘gap’ nary numbers and where the county needed to be to reach a 2 percent tax cap was about $14 million. Palmer said the number was more near $13. Palmer partially blamed the situation on the boards past practices. “It is no secret that with all of the best of intentions, the county has tried to hold the tax levy as low as it could, but that has now created a gap that is very difficult to make up,” Palmer said. “We have cut employees. We have cut funding to contract agencies. The reality is that the gap between what we need and what we are raising on the levy is going to be tough every year.” Scozzafava also pointed to employee contract negotiations, the rising costs of benefits and the fact that the coun-

ty would have to fund the Horace Nye Nursing Home in 2013 as hurdles in the budget process. “It's going to be hard to nail down a budget and predict what will then happen in 2013,” Scozzafava said. Palmer added that the decrease in revenue for the county also affects the other agencies it helps fund. “You have to continually pair down the contract agencies,” he said. “If you continue to do that, it is going to get to the point where they are no longer going to be able to operate.” Palmer said that the preliminary budget will be completed later in the month for the full board to start to look at and trim.

ELIZABETHTOWN — There will be a lot of decisions that will have to be made between now and the final vote on a 2013 Essex County budget. Members of the Essex County Board of Supervisors talked about the preliminary budget process at the end of their Oct. 1 regular meeting, with County Manager Daniel Palmer and Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafava saying preliminary conversations had taken place. “We have talked to almost all of the department heads and have a sense of where they are right now,” Scozzafava said. “There is a pretty big gap. At this point in time, it is too early to give you any predictions other than it is not going to be pretty.” Scozzafava said that the difference between the prelimi-

dopting a pet into your home and providing for that new family member's health and well-being is not only a big responsibility; it is also be a long-term commitment. It's easy to forget when you see those huge puppy eyes or watch a kitten's antics, that this same pet may still be needing your care a decade or more in the future. The average lifespan of a dog is 10-12 years; for a cat, 10-14 years. However, your dog or cat may live past the age of 20, depending on the breed and his health! The average lifespan of an indoor rabbit is 6-8 years, and even a guinea pig can live to the age of 6. If you are considering adding a new furry friend to your family, please be sure to keep in mind that this is a significant decision that will affect your (and his) life for a long time to come. Our featured pet this week is Kevin, a young boxer/greyhound-mix who was picked up on the road by a kind lady who was shocked to see the condition this poor guy was in. Poor Kevin was so skinny that y
y
we could count every rib, and his backbone was clearly visible. Although most dogs are frightened and nervous when they first come to the shelter, Kevin seemed positively thrilled and quickly adapted to shelKevin ter life. He really loves the attention, warm comfy bed, and never ending supply of food! Kevin has filled out considerably since he came to us and is beginning to show hints what a truly handsome dog he will become. He adores people and wags his skinny little tail at everyone who comes around. Whoever is lucky enough to take this sweet boy home will truly have a best friend for life. This resilient fellow is a very special boy. y

Football
Sentinels post dominating homecoming win Ticonderoga posted a dominating homecoming victory while Moriah lost in Champlain Valley Athletic Conference football play Sept. 29.
Ticonderoga 42, AVCS 6 Normally a power, grind-it-out team, Ticonderoga used the arm of quarterback Mike Graney to beat AuSable Valley, 42-6. Graney threw for three touchdowns to pace the Sentinel win. He hit 6-of-11 passes for 97 yards. After Miles Austin scored on a yard plunge to give Ti a 70 lead, Graney went to work. He hit C.J. Raymond with a 9yard scoring strike and connected with Anthony DuShane on a 19-yard scoring play as the Sentinels built a 21-6 halftime lead. Jarryn Granger kept things going for Ti, returning the second half kick off 77 yards for a score. Graney then threw a16yard scoring strike to DuShane and Austin closed out the offensive explosion with a 50-yard TD run. Ty Denno had a big night for Ticonderoga, intercepting a pair of AVCS passes and booting all six extra points. While Ticonderoga enjoyed a big game through the air, Austin still managed to run for 105 yards on 15 carries.
Beekmantown 29, Moriah 20 A spirited Moriah comeback fell short as the Vikings lost to Beekmantown, 29-20. The Eagles raced to a 29-6 lead behind Devin Fessette before Moriah managed to turn things around. Fessette ran for 90 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Taylor Whalen got Moriah on the board with a 30-yard TD run in the second period to make it a 14-6 game. After Beekmantown had extended its lead to 29-6, Cameron Wright broke free for a 38-yard TD gallop for the Vikings. Cole Gaddor passed to Ryan Shpur and Moriah trailed, 29-14. Gaddor then connected with Whalen on a 3-yard scoring pass in the final quarter to make it a 29-20 game, but Moriah’s comeback hopes were dashed when Beekmantown recovered the ensuing on-side kick. Wright ran for 100 yards on 15 carries for Moriah. Gaddor connected on 8-of-14 passes for 79 yards.

The history of hunting in the Adirondacks
At first glance, the only evidence it was a buck were some big tines sticking out of the tall grass. Later I got a better glimpse of him, as he ran off in the distance. Photos by Joe Hackett
A
ccording to The Hunter's Aim: The Cultural Politics of American Sport Hunters, 1880-1910 written by Daniel Justin Herman, “sport hunting in the United States reached its pinnacle in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Between 1865 and 1900, no less than thirty-nine weekly and monthly American journals were devoted to field sports, including Forest and Stream, The American Sportsman, The American Field, Outdoor Life, Recreation, Outing, and Turf Field, and Farm.” Herman explains, “Hunting was the most ubiquitous of American field sports….and the most symbolically charged. Simply put, to hunt in the Gilded Age was to define oneself as American while simultaneously defining oneself too as an equal of English aristocrats.” “Ironically, as sport hunting in the United States peaked around the turn of the century, native game populations were plummeting. By the time the western "frontier" had been tamed; the industrial revolution was in full swing and the U.S. population was rapidly turning more urban and industrial rather than rural and agrarian.” Hunting proved to be important means of subsistence for settlers, even as agriculture cane to define civilization. In the colonial era, hunters were considered barbaric, backwards backwoodsmen, who were not far removed from the Native Americans. Civilized men were expected to spend their time toiling on the farm or working in a factory. Modern men were more likely involved in the burgeoning progresses of the Industrial Revolution. This divide, which occurred at the turn of the last century, continues to haunt shooting sports to this day. To a degree, the divide affected big game hunting the most, and today, it deer hunting is largely considered a blue-collar pursuit, while the more polished sportsmen prefer to hunt elk, quail and pheasant. Despite a host of social and economic divides, shooting sports continue to provide the American public with a valuable connection to the past. Additionally, our long heritage of hunting and fishing pursuits are directly responsible for the preservation of wildlife and the continued conservation of the wild places they inhabit. Herman concluded, ”sport hunting became a quintessentially American sport in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries…as it offered a way to recapture an imagined past…and defined Americanness.” In current times, as Americans continue to adjust to the rapid changes brought on by the advent of instant communications, and the uncertainties of the many modern day political, social and economic upheaval; it will be traditional consumptive sports such as hunting and angling that provide the population with an important a grounding influence. In an increasingly artificial world, where virtual reality is nearly as prevalent as the real thing, it will be the folks with boots on the ground that offer this country it’s best and last chance to hold onto the foundations of a proud society.
Adirondack Big Game Hunting
Historically, the vast landmass encompassing the current Park wasn’t formally labeled the Adirondacks until 1837. Prior to that time, a British map from 1761 referred to the land simply as ‘Deer Hunting Country’. It seems times haven’t
changed as much as the names. Despite the lack of a formal name, it is believed the region once provided a traditional route for native peoples of the Algonquin, Abenaki and Mohawk nations, who traveled through it for centuries. The land was likely used for hunting, trapping, fishing and trade, but there is little evidence of the establishment of permanent Indian settlements. However, it is believed that Native People maintained seasonal villages for hunting, fishing and even agricultural purposes. Although New York State initiated regulations restricting the harvest of Whitetail Deer in 1788, which limited the harvest to a season spanning from August until December, the laws were rarely enforced. In the years following the Civil War, an energetic and ever burgeoning, East Coast populace discovered the Adirondacks. In their efforts to escape the summer heat and eternal urban grime, they vacated the cities, and retreated to the cool confines of the Great North Woods. They were called ‘vacationers’, and soon the fabulous resorts and Great Camps were built to accommodate them. The rush north was greatly aided by several publications that painted a rather rosy image of the benefits of wilderness travel. Initially, the notorious Adirondack black flies received very little ink. When Rev. William H. H. Murray published Adventures in the Wilderness in 1869, the book brought a ground swell of urbanites to the to the Adirondacks in the movement that became known as ‘Murray’s Rush.’ Increasingly, travelers that included Murrays Fools came to hunt and fish during their vacation, and the demand for competent woodsmen fostered the development of a network of Adirondack guides. The manly pursuits of hunting, fishing and camping were extremely popular among urban dwellers, and the Adirondacks beckoned. In the years after the Civil War until the turn of the century, over three dozen national magazines were published to satisfy the demand for sporting journals. Many publications, including Forest and Stream advocated for the preservation and restoration of native species such as moose, black bear and beaver, while others endorsed efforts to stock elk, buffalo, Russian Boar and a host of exotic big game species. A few of these original sporting journals are still in publication today, including The American Sportsman, Outdoor Life, and Field and Stream. As fish and game stocks began to become depleted, The New York State Forest Commission enacted game laws for the Adirondacks with defined seasons, take limits and a specified means of harvest in order to protect the natural resources. According to Adirondack Wilderness: A Story of Man and Nature by Jane Eblen Keller, the New York Deer Hunting Season was reduced to two deer per person from August 15 until October 15, in1895. Jacklighting of deer was finally banned in 1897, and following a five-year prohibition in 1899, the hounding of deer was banned permanently in 1904. At the time, the science of game management was a relatively new concept. However, the extinction of such prolific species as Passenger Pigeons, and the near demise of the American Bison, sounded a national alarm. The unprotected and unwarranted hunting of game species simply for sport was considered a national calamity. In the Adirondacks, and elsewhere, game seasons were established, and restocking efforts were initiated to restore beaver, black bear and to ensure the survival of a greatly diminished whitetail deer herd. In 1926, hunters were required to purchase a hunting license, and the hunting season was reduced to just a month from October 16 until November 15. However, Adirondack hunters were still harvesting between seven and twelve thousand deer throughout the 1920’s and 30’s. Due to ongoing conservations efforts, the Adirondack deer herd expanded and annual harvests topped out in 1954, when hunters took 10,192 bucks, which remains the annual record. However, in 1969 three hard winters in succession reduced the deer population by half when the animals couldn't forage beneath the deep snows. The decline occurred when much of the Forest Preserve had a lot of even-aged stands with little undergrowth, that were inhospitable to deer. A sudden scarcity of whitetails was evident in 1968, when hunters harvested only 8,383 bucks in the Adirondacks, and by 1971, they managed a take of only 2,907 whitetails. By the end of the '70's decade, the Department of Environmental Conservation estimated the Adirondack deer herd consisted of less than 30,000 animals due to a series of hard winters and the lack of suitable habitat. Currently, wildlife biologists indicate the deer herd has rebounded quite well and estimates of current deer populations in a range between sixty and eighty thousand animals. Like most deer hunters, I ask that at least one buck passes my way during the open season. Anything beyond that would be purely a bonus. Joe Hackett is a guide and sportsman residing in Ray Brook.

Why we seek nature
I
t only took 10 minutes for the view to disappear, 10 minutes for the bright autumn leaves decorating Giant Mountain to be enveloped in a cloud of mist. I witnessed the spectacle from the rocks of Owl Head lookout, and eagerly watched as the sunlight became a filtered haze of its former self and the wind picked up, causing glistening, mote-sized droplets of water to dance before me. “This is why I do this,” I thought as the mist continued along the range, consuming Rocky Peak Ridge. “This is something worth beholding.” For me, a nice view is simply a destination, a milestone along a trip through the woods. The 2.5 mile trail to Owl Head lookout is interesting in its own right. With its little waterfalls, wooden bridges, open hemlock-dominated forests and mossy ravine, it is about as scenic as anyone could ask for. But, as much as I enjoyed the journey, it is that one moment, when everything changed, that stands out to me the most. I have been asked what it is about nature that appeals to me, why I would rather take to a trail than a shopping mall, especially on a rainy day, and the answer is never a simple one. It is a fair question, for sure, but an honest response is multi-tiered—I go into the forest to learn, to challenge myself, to gain perspective and to relax. But there was something that came before all of that, something the mist-shrouded mountains reminded me of—a sense of discovery. From my first memories of the outdoors to my latest outing, I have found that there is always a feeling of exploration and adventure in the forest, even on some of our most well-worn paths. It is why, I think, so many people are drawn to nature, and why some of us feel the need to return to it as often as possible. It is true that people enter the woods for different reasons—scientists seek to study it, climbers to scale it, hunters to stalk it and artists to emulate it. Regardless of the activity, that thing that keeps a person busy, the goal remains the same—to experience that one moment in time when something extraordinary occurs. It could be spotting a rare Bicknell’s thrush in the krummholz on Algonquin or being the first to climb the new slide on Upper Wolf Jaw. It might be taking down a buck after tracking it for hours through the Saranac Lakes Wild Forest or finally getting the colors right in that painting of a perfect mountain sunset over Osgood Pond. I think about all of this as I watch the mist travel through the valley toward Lake Champlain. I think about how fortunate I feel to be the only one on Owl Head this day, and then I think about how important it is to have this land available for everyone to enjoy. It enriches lives, it calms nerves, and it’s great exercise. Yes, we might think differently about the activities we pursue, but in the end we are all seeking, and fighting to protect, the same thing. As I left the trailhead and came around a bend on Route 9N, what I saw compelled me to pull over—a rainbow was straddling the road in a great, prismatic arch. As I admired it a man came out of a nearby house and stood in his front lawn, head tilted toward the sky, and a rider on a motorcycle soon stopped and joined me on the shoulder of the road. No one spoke, for we had each found the natural wonder on our own, and even though we shared that moment, that feeling of discovery still belonged to each one of us.
