Town justice upholds felony charge in Scaringe rape case By Chris Morris denpubs@denpubs.com SARANAC LAKE — The youth center director accused of raping a 13-year-old local girl was back in court earlier this week for a felony hearing that upheld the case against him thus far. Michael Scaringe, 61, appeared before Harrietstown Justice Thomas Glover shortly before noon Jan. 4 wearing orange prison garb and a Carhart jacket. He was escorted into the courtroom by two Franklin County Sheriff ’s deputies, where he took his seat beside defense attorney Brian Barrett of Lake Placid. The purpose of the hearing was to Scaringe establish if enough evidence existed to pursue the felony charges levied against Scaringe, who was taken into custody Jan. 1 after police learned he allegedly forcibly raped an adolescent girl. Prosecutor Jack Delehanty is an assistant district attorney for Franklin County. “Judge Glover just conducted a felony hearing; it’s the right of all defendants who stand charged with a felony offense to have their case heard by the local magistrate,” he said. “The purpose of today’s hearing was to determine whether or not there’s reasonable cause to believe that the elements of any felony offense could be demonstrated by credible evidence and that’s what Judge Glover indicated existed today. The defendant will now be bound-over for the action of the Grand Jury.” Justice Glover moved to uphold the charges of first-degree rape, despite Barrett’s contention that the prosecution did not present any physical evidence to support its case. Glover also maintained bail at $100,000 cash and $150,000 bond. Delehanty noted that Scaringe has two Social Security numbers, and has changed his name in the past – making him a prime candidate for flight-risk. But Barrett disagreed. “I’m just asking that the defendant be released, because I don’t believe that sufficient evidence was presented to find that there was even reasonable suspicion that my client had committed any felony,” he said. Throughout the proceedings, Delehanty stressed that the hearing was not a “fishing expedition.” The purpose of the hearing, Delehanty said, was to establish grounds for charges of second-degree felony rape. “That means we have an adult over the age of 21 and a minor under the age of 17 engaging in sexual intercourse,” Delehanty said. “And that’s illegal no matter where you are.” To support the charge, the complaining witness appeared before Justice Glover, as did Bureau of Criminal Investigation Investigator Daniel Howard. The 13-year-old witness testified that sexual intercourse did occur, and Howard testified to the age of Scaringe. Barrett said the defense doesn’t dispute the facts surrounding the individuals involved. “We certainly don’t dispute that the

Community lends hand to family in need By Matt Bosley matt@denpubs.com LAKE PLACID — One Wilmington family has been going through some unbelievably tragic times lately. Fortunately, many people in the community have helped to soften the blow. Randy Patterson, Tammie Knox, and their four children, Deyondra, 11; Dustin, 8; and five-year-old twins Danaya and Dariana lost most of their belongings, including several pets, in a Dec. 21 fire that destroyed their home at 37 Juniper Lane in Wilmington. And the holidays have proven rough for the Pattersons. In addition to losing their home, the family vehicle broke down on Christmas Eve and, on New Year ’s Day, Patterson’s grandfather passed away. While the time since then has, no doubt, been a struggle for the Pattersons, an effort by fellow community members has given them much-needed support in a trying time. Neither Patterson nor Knox were at home when the fire struck, and all four children were in class at Lake Placid Elementary School. Patterson and Knox went to pick them up as soon as they received word of the fire. News of their loss resonated among the children’s teachers, and soon the wheels were in motion for a massive clothing and food drive. “We heard about it around 1:00 or 1:30 that day, and people just jumped into action,” said Lake Placid Elementary principal

Rick Retrosi, noting how the school became somewhat of an unofficial clearing house to benefit the family. Teachers and staff were able to determine clothing sizes for the children, and e-mails went out to parent and teacher organizations alerting people of the need.
“Faculty members contributed in the form of either clothing, money, or gift cards,” said Retrosi. “People responded with all kinds of clothing, new and older clothing, and brought all their stuff to the school.” Meanwhile, the family made

Big Tupper Ski Area opens to rave reviews By Chris Morris denpubs@denpubs.com TUPPER LAKE — About 10 years ago, one of the regions most popular downhill ski areas closed down indefinitely. Outdoor enthusiasts and dedicated volunteers celebrated the grand reopening of the Big Tupper Ski Area Dec. 26. The opening comes as a significant milestone, especially for members of the Tupper Lake community who formed ARISE – Adirondack Residents Intent on Saving their Economy. The community action group formed in 2009 and spearheaded efforts to reopen the popular ski center on Mount Morris. ARISE President Jim LaValley said opening day was a great success. “It was excellent,” he said. “There was lots of excitement and there were lots of smiles.” Mountain Manager Bill Mozdier said six trails were open for Dec. 30, and all were in excellent condition. He added that snow forecasted over the next few days could allow volunteers to open all trails by the weekend. Mozdier also estimated that more than 200 skiers and snowboarders hit the slopes of Mount Morris for opening day. According to skibigtupper.org, the mountain is running with a four-to-10-inch base and packed powder. The mountain is open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. “The parking lot was full of cars,” LaValley said. “It was a great opening day after 10 years of not having the ski area open.

Tourism group changes name CROWN POINT — The Board of Directors for the Lake Placid/Essex County Visitors Bureau has formally changed the organization’s name to Regional Office Of Sustainable Tourism, or ROOST. The name change reflects the evolution of the organization by including its ongoing sustainable tourism initiatives, but there will be no change in the organization’s body of work. ROOST continues to offer sophisticated marketing programs to support the region’s tourism businesses and to promote Lake Placid and Essex County’s destinations. “As an accredited Destination Marketing Organization, ROOST remains the authority on tourism for Lake Placid and Essex County, and will continue to proactively promote the region’s destinations,” said Jennifer Webb, chairwoman, ROOST board of directors. Sustainable tourism, in its purest sense, is an industry
whose goal is to make a low impact on the environment and local culture, while helping to generate economic activity and employment without overtaxing any resources whether human, environmental or man-made. The ultimate goal of sustainable tourism is to improve the quality of life for residents while facilitating destination planning and promoting the product to the traveling public. “Following our accreditation as the Destination Marketing Organization for all of Essex County, the new name is the next progression of our organization,” said James McKenna, ROOST president. “The name ‘visitors bureau’ speaks to visitors, but our objective is to effect positive quality of life for the residents of Essex County through tourism. ROOST better defines the core objectives of our programs for our local and regional organizational identity, and will clarify locally our primary role.”

Negotiations stalled between Franklin board, highway employees By Jon Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com VERMONTVILLE — Contract negotiations between the town of Franklin and highway department employees have officially stalled, as both sides can’t agree on the rate of pay increases for the next three years. On Jan. 4, the town board declared the negotiations at an impasse after its final offer to union representatives on Dec. 8 didn’t even garner a response. And for outgoing Franklin Supervisor Mary Ellen Keith, the utter lack of progress is a frustration, especially considering what she calls the extra perks of municipal employment. Keith said that she believes the union is holding out for the next administra-
tion, which takes office Jan. 1 under Supervisor-elect Art Wilman, in the hopes that they may get a better deal. “I am really disappointed in the highway department that they did not accept this 6 percent increase over the next three years,” Keith said. “This is an addition to the benefits of 12 holidays, five personal days, sick time, clothing allowance, vacation, bereavement and a Cadillac health insurance plan with employee contributions of 15 percent of the total cost of the premium.” According to sources close to the story, town highway employees wanted an annual 6 percent pay increase over the next three years or an 18 percent raise by 2013. But in uncertain economic conditions, the town is only willing to dole

out one-third of that amount, instead offering annual two-percent increases. The current contract for the town’s seven highway employees expires Dec. 31 and with an impasse officially declared, highway crews will spend atleast part of 2010 without an agreement. Their pay and benefits will remain at current levels until a new agreement is reached, but they will be required to cover most of the costs associated with their health care coverage. In fiscal year 2008-2009, the annual income for Franklin Highway Department employees ranged from $25,659 to $33,870 with the average worker earning about $31,000. The negotiations will be going to arbitration in the coming months.

Saranac Lake Talent Show upcoming SARANAC LAKE — Time to dust off that unicycle and mark your calendar for the Fifth Annual Saranac Lake Talent Show, Saturday, Jan. 23, 6 p.m. in the Harrietstown Town Hall. The Adirondack Unitarian Universalist Community is the sponsor of the show. This year, in lieu of having a Harvest Dinner and placing various names in a hat, AUUC asked for interested non profit groups to submit at letter stating why their group should partner with AUUC and be the beneficiary of 60% of the funds raised. The Executive Board of AUUC announce that this year ’s partner is Lift Mount Pisgah. The Talent Show Committee will organize, direct, screen the talent, work lights, stage the show, create the program booklet, create promotional materials, run the concession at intermission, and MC the event. Lift Mount Pisgah will help in the following ways: promote the event, sell advertising space in the program, sell tickets before and on the night of the show, and assist in other ways when needed. “We are hoping for a bigger and better than ever show this year. The committee would appreciate it if all those talented folks out there will fill out their applications and get them in as soon as possible,” said Jason Brill, Talent Show Master of Ceremonies. The very first Talent Show raised close to $4,500 for the Siena Project, which helped send 25 High School choristers to Siena, Italy. In subsequent years, Pendragon Theatre’s Arts in Education Program, the Tri-Lakes Humane Society, and The Adirondack Carousel were the recipients of the shared proceeds that have totaled more than $6000. There will be an esteemed panel of judges again this year that will do the final judging on the acts. This year ’s show will have five categories: Ages 5-12, 13-18, 19-55, 56-100 and an Ensemble category for groups of performers. There will be first and second prizes awarded for each category and again this year the audience favorite will perform at the Winter Carnival Rotary Show. We hope to have 20 to 25 acts in this year ’s show,” said Brill. Performance time is limited to three minutes. Registration is on a first come, first served basis, so those interested are encouraged to submit their applications as soon as possible. Applications can be picked up and returned to Borealis Color on Main Street. There is a non-refundable $5 application fee. If you have any questions or if you would like an application by e-mail, please call 891-0182 or e-mail info@adkuu.org.

H
umans and dogs have had a long shared history. Many anthropologists believe that man could never have evolved as they have without dogs. One theory suggests that Homo sapiens utilized dogs in their lives and the Neanderthals did not. Many anthropologists believe that the powerful Neanderthals lost the evolutionary race for this reason. If not for dogs, we might not even be here. There is considerable evidence that dogs enrich our lives in many ways, including our health. Dogs lower our blood pressure, heart rates and stress levels just by their presence. Children that grow up with a dog around have less allergies, less asthma and less eczema. Dogs are also a protective and consoling influence for children. Therapeutic dogs are utilized in Nursing homes, hospitals, day care settings and more recently in prisons. In the twenty seven years that my wife and I have been together we have had several wonderful dogs. Our first dog together was a large red Doberman, Buckwheat. Buckwheat was fun loving and despite our best efforts, un-trainable with the limited dog skills that we had at the time. Though she was very large, Buckwheat loved to get up on my wife’s lap or to fall asleep on her. Upon hearing something outside one day, she jumped through the glass window in the kitchen door somehow uninjured. Once, while riding in my truck, she jumped out the window at about twenty miles an hour, skinning her chin and playfully wobbling to her feet. In spite of her intellectual limitations she was loveable and a big bundle of fun. Luka, a golden eyed Chesapeake Bay retriever was our next dog. Even as a puppy, she was a protective presence in our home. As an older dog she became very protective of my wife. I began to notice that she would always put herself between a
visitor and my wife. She was always at my wife’s feet. When Luka was stricken with painful, malignant cancer in old age, my wife decided that because Luka had shown her such devotion, she would bring her to the vet to stop her pain. That was a sad and difficult day for my wife and our family; we had truly lost a member of our family. We still think of Luka and have Luka’s picture in a priviBy Scot Hurlburt leged position in our home. About five years ago, two Golden retrievers, Jazz and Rooney came into our lives. Rooney is a cinnamon-colored pretty-boy; always the poser with his forever puppy face. Jazz, lighter in color is the wise dog. Jazz has those sad, loving eyes that compel you to get down on one knee to hug her. If you ever have the good fortune to meet Jazz, she will welcome you and sit close to you so you can enjoy her loving energy. Dogs don’t hold grudges, are blind to color and don’t care how important you are. The world would certainly be a better place we all acted more like dogs. Depending on your perspective, Jazz does have one unsettling behavior; she is a butt-sniffer. Given some of the people that I’ve known over the years, if their worst offense was butt-sniffing, they would rise in stature by good measure Remember all kids count.

Reader Mail: Know when to hold ’em!
H
ere’s a question from a reader like you who’s learning how to use coupons to save money at the grocery store: Q: “I have to disagree with you about holding onto coupons until stores put the item on a good sale. Great idea, but as you might have noticed coupons today have a very short life span. You said grocery stores’ best sales on certain items rarely coincide with coupons available that week. I don’t believe you should hold on to coupons and wait for a better sale because the coupons will expire. Best to grab the deal when you can and use the coupon, otherwise it’s a waste of time cutting those coupons out.” A: This is one of the most common misconceptions about coupons: assuming that they expire too soon to make holding onto them worthwhile. The average coupon has an expiration date three months out. Some expire sooner, some expire later, but it’s wrong to assume that they all expire very quickly. I have coupon inserts that are more than eight months old that still have current, unexpired coupons in them – proof that it’s not only important to hold onto all of our inserts until every coupon inside expires, but also proof that not all coupons expire quickly. Using coupons the same week you get them is almost always a big mistake. Stores know exactly which products will be featured in the coupon inserts for the current week, and most stores will intentionally leave these items at a higher price. The reason? Stores know how most people use coupons. Most people will cut coupons out of this week’s paper and use them the same week. But these shoppers usually pay a much higher price on a given product, even with a coupon, than if they had waited for a better sale and then used the coupon. About six weeks ago, I received a $1 coupon with an expiration date three months out, good for a certain brand of soup. This soup was $3.29 the week the coupon arrived. If I used the coupon that week, I’d pay $2.29, still much more than I like to pay for a can of soup. But with three months’ time to watch for a better sale, I waited. And this week, the soup went on sale for $1 a can. My coupon is still more than a month away from ex-
piring, but by waiting a few weeks, I took the soup home for free! Had I used it the week I’d gotten it, I would still have paid more than two dollars for the soup. Free is much better. After one of my coupon classes, a man came up to me and told me that he had an By Jill Cataldo “aha!” coupon moment. He was an avid poker player, and he equated knowing when to “play” your coupon to knowing when to play a certain card in a hand of poker. I like this analogy a lot, because coupon shopping can definitely feel like a game at times... and it’s a game that’s fun to win! A $1 coupon is worth a lot more paired with a $1 sale price than it is with a $3.29 regular price. As for your point about using a coupon the week you cut it out so that it’s not a “waste of time,” I’d suggest that you not be so quick to clip. I never cut coupons that I’m not going to use immediately. I use a “clipless” system to manage my coupons (more on this at www.supercouponing.com under “Getting Started.”) I’m not cutting a coupon out until the week I actually need it. If the coupon in my insert does not line up with a good sale before it expires, I haven’t wasted any time at all clipping it, looking it up or carrying it around. I use as little time and effort as possible to manage my coupons and you can, too! It’s much easier to take only the coupons you need to the store in the first place, secure in the knowledge that, like my card-playing student, you are “playing” your coupons at exactly the right time to maximize savings.

s I had mentioned in my previous column, some plant pathogens can be introduced into a crop on seeds. Bacterial pathogens are notorious for this means of dissemination. Purchasing treated seeds is one way to avoid this problem. The other way is to use hot water to kill diseases. This treatment is suggested for seeds of eggplant, pepper, tomato, carrot, spinach, lettuce, celery, cabbage, turnip, radish, and other crucifers. Seeds of cucurbits (squash, gourds, pumpkins, watermelons, etc.) can be damaged by hot water and thus should not be treated. To treat the seeds, wrap seeds loosely in a woven cotton bag, such as cheesecloth, or a nylon bag. Then, place the seeds in 100 degree water for 10 minutes. Next, place the pre-warmed sees in a water bath that will hold the water at the recommended temperature for the recommended length of time. Length of treatment and the temperature of water must be exact. A good thermometer and timer are important. After treating the seeds, place the bag in cold tap water for 5 minutes to stop any heating action. Spread the seeds in a single, uniform layer on a screen to dry. Do not store the seeds until they are thoroughly dry so that they do not germinate or rot. Here’s the recommended water temperature and timing for several common vegetable: Brussels sprouts, eggplant, spinach cabbage, and tomato should be in 122 degree water for 25 minutes; broccoli, cauliflower, carrot, collard,
kale, rutabaga, and turnips go into 122 degree water for 20 minutes; mustards and radishes are at 122 degrees for 15 minutes; peppers should be at 125 degrees for 30 minutes; and lettuce, celery, and celeriac are 118 degrees for 30 minute. Keeping the water too hot or keeping the seeds in too long will kill the seeds. Low water temperatures or shorter than recommended time periods will not kill the pathogens. While this process is not “rocket science” you do have to be precise. If you are not one who enjoys following directions closely, you can avoid this process by purchasing treated seeds. But, if you do like to follow precise instructions, this process can allow you to purchase untreated, organic seeds and still ensure the seeds will not be transmitting pathogens into your garden!

State officials: Budget deficit likely to double By Jon Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com ALBANY — If you thought 2009 was ugly in the state legislature, buckle up for 2010. With a $3.2 billion shortfall looming and political battles erupting over the budget, 2009 was a troubled year for a financially strapped New York State. And if New Yorkers expect things to get any better when 2010 arrives, they should think again.

No doubt, there’s trouble ahead. State politics will ring in the New Year with a flurry of lawsuits from school districts and special interest groups who claim Gov. David Paterson broke the law when he unilaterally froze and slashed state aid payments in December. Governor ’s spokesman Morgan Hook said this week that with the spring state budget season on the horizon, the nonstop strife that has racked the state isn’t likely to end anytime soon. He said that he expects formidable battles over state spending reductions, necessary to balance the budget, to continue well into 2010 and beyond. “The bulk of the state’s spending is in education and health care,” Hook said. “We are going to have to make cuts and the bulk of those cuts are going to have to come from those areas.” Paterson is targeting the two largest state expenses, school aid and Medicaid, for cuts in an attempt to close a huge budget gap, Hook said. The state Office of the Budget expects the gap to be between $7 and $9 billion in 201-2011, he said. This is more than double the sum that nearly brought the state to its knees in 2009-2010. Last fall, Paterson had called for nearly $500 million in mid-year school aid reductions, but couldn’t get them enacted as state legislators considered the move political suicide. State Budget Office spokesman Matt Anderson said Dec. 30 that the state will distribute $49.2 billion in Medicaid reimbursements and $21.9 billion in school aid in 2009 -2010. And without some form of fundamental change, these figures will only continue to skyrocket. Paterson will deliver the annual State of the State address Jan. 6 and his office will release the Executive Budget for legislative scrutiny two weeks later. Hook warned that the situation is likely to deteriorate, especially in fiscal year 2011-2012 when federal stimulus money dries up. “In the New Year, the story isn’t going to change — the problems haven’t gone away,” Hook said, predicting that in 2011-2012, the financial imbalances are likely to get even worse. Hook said that Paterson wants to implement an open-ended 4 percent cap on increases in state spending. He has also proposed a cap on state property taxes, which in essence would limit the amount of cash the state will have on hand.

According to state Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli, as of Dec. 30, New York has $3.3 billion in available cash, but has $3.5 billion in bills to pay by Jan. 4. The situation is so bad, DiNapoli said Dec. 30, that his agency is using the state’s petty cash fund to simply survive December. According to Jason Koppel, spokesman for Democratic state Senate Finance Committee Chairman Carl Kruger, legislators are in a holding pattern until Paterson releases the Executive Budget. Nonetheless, alternative ideas to closing the gap without gutting the programs that serve the most people are in the works, but specifics are hard to come by. “We’ve already started really looking into some things,” Koppel said. “After the State of the State is when everything will get started, but I can’t really give out specifics yet.” Local Assemblywoman Teresa Sayward and her fellow Republican legislators, however, were willing to suggest some specific ways to cut the state budget fat, Sayward said. “I would like to see every Assembly member have the same staffing patterns, as they do in Congress,” Sayward said. “I have the largest district in the state and I have three employee — we cover this district pretty well. I know of offices who have 15 employees and they cover only a few city blocks.” Also, Sayward said she would like to see a cost-benefit analysis conducted of the state’s property holdings. She notes that the state owns over 100 golf courses, which represent yet another expense that is not an essential government service. The annual expense to maintain these golf courses, primarily located in the lower Hudson Valley, is more than $50 million, she said. Across-the-board consolidation of state agencies is another G.O.P.-backed concept that could payroll and medical insurance and pension costs. Republicans are also calling for mandated county social programs to be made optional, which could reduce Medicaid expenses while simultaneously allowing local governments to choose the services that best fit their communities. But regardless of party or position, another year of intense disagreements, frustrating stalemates and political strife is expected.

arrangements to stay with Patterson’s parents in Lake Placid, where many of the donations were already being delivered. “We had hockey that night, and by the time we got home from hockey, my parents’ livingroom and kitchen were chock full of stuff,” said Patterson. “That gives you an idea of how quickly things came in.” Knox was especially touched by gifts of brand new underwear and socks. “You don’t realize you don’t have them until they’re gone,” she said. “For them to go out that night and buy brand new things for our kids was just amazing.” Significant donations of clothes and money continued to pour in from other organizations and individuals in the community, many of them being delivered to Lake Placid Elementary, Lake Placid Fire Department, or The Palace Theatre before being passed along to the Pattersons. “We have a three-page list of people that have been donating,” said Patterson, “and it’s just so hard to pinpoint who did the most.” Donations brought to the school were sorted by faculty and staff and packaged for easy delivery to the family. “We actually pulled the children out of the classroom and brought them out to where we had sorted the clothes,” Retrosi said, noting how their parents joined them in picking up donations from the school before Christmas break. “There were tears in their eyes,” said Retrosi. “They were just so thrilled and happy that people knew what they were going through and there was somebody there for them.” Both Patterson and Knox said the donations have made a huge difference, helping them to remain clothed and fed at a time when they otherwise would have practically nothing. “It’s been really crucial because, when we left, we left with just the clothes on our backs,” said Patterson. “Plus, it gave my kids a Christmas, which I didn’t think we were going to have because the presents we had gotten were in the house also.” Donation collections for the family have been ongoing. Knox said they are in continual need of gift cards to grocery and hardware stores, but the support that’s come in so far has just been overwhelming. “It’s just so hard to put into words,” said Knox. “They went above and beyond what we ever imagined. There’s just not enough sincere thank-yous that we can give.”
the need for such education, expressly intended to nurture human development and improve quality of life for individuals, families, and communities,” she said. Many believe that FACS appeals to and is necessary for the most basic of successes. “I think family and consumer sciences education will continue to impact students as it helps prepare them for life. Schools need to continue to support FACS departments,” said Leslie Schafer, a SUNY Oneonta freshman studying to be a family and consumer science teacher. Experts in FACS content areas and students studying it at all levels of education arrived in Lake Placid to celebrate their work with live reenactments of Lake Placid Club porch conversations, theatrical presentations by Pam Swallow niece of Ellen H. Richards, and to light a Betty Lamp for the future of AAFCS. The Betty Lamp, derived from the German word “besser”, meaning “to make better”, is the symbol of the AAFCS and best signifies their mission - to improve quality of life. In the Olympic spirit of the region, a torch was lit and passed through the hands of AAFCS members representing its many facets. The ceremony was sponsored by Olympic Regional Development. High school student and Family, Career and Community Leaders of America (FCCLA) state officer Logan Kempney held the honor of using the torch to light the Betty Lamp. He expressed pride in the success of FACS while voicing his concern. “Not enough membership could bring this organization to a sudden halt. In the future of FCCLA and FACS I hope to see people's dreams become realities, not remain dreams,” he said. While celebrating, members of the Centennial Conference took a roll in securing the sustainability of the AAFCS. Workshops and presentations touched on how FACS can adapt to changing times. One such presentation proved FACS keep up with the modern idea of “being green”. “We aren’t just cooking and sewing, we are on the cutting edge of green and we can prove it,” said presenter Ramona Hatch. She claimed that living with respect for the environment is not a new concept to FACS professionals - Ellen H. Richards pioneered the concept over a century ago. As a retired FACS teacher, Hatch spoke to the importance of encouraging students to be eco-friendly and teaching the sci-

ence and economics that supports such things as natural cleaners, energy conservation, recycling and much more. “We have to honor our past and plant the seeds of our future,” said national AAFCS President Marilyn Swierk in her keynote address to the conference. She encouraged members to “keep the FACS torch burning” in the years to come. The AAFCS has revised its key issues regarding lifestyle, careers, relationships and much more in order to be relevant in an era of technology and advancement. “Technology is affecting families in ways we don’t even understand yet. Students, families and communities across the nation will continue to benefit from FACS,” said Ware. In its 100 years of existence, the AAFCS has proved that it can withstand change, be effective and continue to influence lives for years to come. The Centennial Celebration in Lake Placid gave FACS professionals a push to overcome the challenges that face the AAFCS in the future. “We have gone through ups and downs, but history has taught us that our field will always be needed - people will always want a better quality of life. We may address different issues in different ways, but the basic need for what we do will always be there,” said Swierk.

From page 1 complainant is a juvenile, and we certainly don’t dispute that my client is 61,” he said. “But what we do dispute is every other element of that crime and the occurrences of the crime.” Details about the victim are kept confidential under federal “rape shield” laws, which bar the defendant’s ability to cross-examine plaintiffs about past sexual behavior. The law also prohibits media from identifying the alleged victim. During the complainant’s testimony, she testified that on the afternoon of Wednesday, Dec. 23 she was at the Saranac Lake Youth Center, where Scaringe was employed as executive director. Scaringe allegedly offered the girl a ride home, first stopping at his residence on Old Lake Colby Drive. The girl waited inside Scaringe’s car while he went inside to retrieve his two dogs and some duffle bags. She remained inside the vehicle until Scaringe asked her to help with some bags. She obliged, and entered the home. Then, the defendant allegedly told the victim the bags were upstairs. She climbed the stairs and searched for the bags. He then forced her to enter his bedroom, at which point he closed the door and allegedly forced her onto the bed. She testified that he held her on the bed while removing his clothes. He then removed her clothes and allegedly proceeded to have sexual intercourse with the girl for 10 to 15 minutes. Following the alleged rape, the girl waited in Scaringe’s vehicle and the defendant then drove her home. During cross-examination, Barrett asked the plaintiff if she could recall any unique markings on Scaringe’s body. She said she could not. Delehanty did object to a number of Barrett’s inquiries, to which Barrett responded he was trying to show that the complainant’s story had been “fabricated.” A Grand Jury hearing is slated for this Thursday; members of the press are not permitted to attend. In the meantime, Scaringe will be held in Franklin County Jail pending bail or bond. Details regarding Scaringe’s past are gradually becoming clear. Scaringe did attend school in Saranac Lake, and was formerly known as Michael Josephson. Barrett explained that his client took his stepfather ’s last name after his mother remarried. He later opted to switch back to Scaringe. Before being hired in September as director of the youth center, Scaringe was employed as a substitute teacher at St. Bernard’s Catholic school. He tried to sub for the Saranac Lake Central School District, but was not hired. An article that appeared in the St. Petersburg (Fla.) Times says Scaringe was acquitted of molesting a 14-year-old girl in 1995. At the time, he was a teacher at Bay Point Middle School. A jury ultimately decided the girl’s story was made up and charges were dropped.

By Chris Morris denpubs@denpubs.com SARANAC LAKE — Motorists will not be able to use a portion of Catherine Street in the village of Saranac Lake for the next few months. The section of road between Bloomingdale Avenue and Marshall Street
will be blocked off with a barricade from Dec. 30 - April 2, 2010. Village officials opted to close the road after receiving a letter from Todd and Hilary Smith, who reside at the top of the steep hill. According to the correspondence, winter weather makes driving up or down the street dangerous. Department of Public Works Super-
intendent Robert Martin told village trustees recently that the steep section of Catherine Street used to be closed to motor vehicles in the winter. “I’m not sure when we discontinued the practice of closing that part of the road,” he said. “But we used to close it for winter.” DPW crews will close the road using semi-permanent barriers.
