The 113th annual Saranac Lake Winter Carnival is scheduled for Feb. 5-14, 2010. Until then, the Winter Carnival Committee is continuing to plan for the event with the help of community members and a newly revamped Web site. Photo by Pat Hendrick
SARANAC LAKE — The Saranac Lake Winter Carnival Committee is gearing up for the 113th annual event, and hoping a new publicity tool will make the 2010 carnival one of the best ever. The committee recently launched a newly designed Web site: www.saranaclakewintercarnival.com. “This redesigned web-site provides us with virtually total content control, dramatic visuals, improved sponsorship recognition, and visitor demographics,” said Jeff Dickson, Chair of the Winter Carnival Committee. “Previously we had to rely on the website designer for content additions and updates,” he added. “The redesigned site, based on a content-management system of design, allows our own maintenance team to make timely updates and improvements.” The 2010 Winter Carnival theme is
“Adirondack Cowboys,” selected earlier this year based on several suggestions and with broad-based community input. The Winter Carnival Committee believes that this theme will provide a wonderful opportunity for the community to fully participate in the week long celebration. The Winter Carnival Committee has already held several planning meetings for the 2010 Winter Carnival. Events for the 113th annual carnival include a gala parade and spectacular opening and closing fireworks displays, despite current economic issues. “Although funding for Winter Carnival continues to present a major challenge to the Committee, we are confident our community will come forward this year with its generous contributions as it has in years past,” Dickson said. The Winter Carnival will begin on Feb. 5, 2010 with the presentation of the Royal
Court and the Coronation of the King and Queen. It will continue through Sunday, Feb. 14. Interested community members are invited to join in the excitement of planning and executing another successful carnival event. Winter Carnival Committee meetings are held in the Hodson Hall Board Room at North Country Community College. Upcoming meeting dates include December 23; January 6, 13, 20, and 27; and February 3 and 17. All meetings start at 7:30 p.m. Further information about the Winter Carnival can be obtained by contacting the Saranac Lake Area Chamber of Commerce at 891-1990, or by e-mail at info@saranaclake.com. Information is also available at the Web site, www.saranaclakewintercarnival.com, where visitors can request information via e-mail.
Lake Placid native prepares for Afghanistan deployment By Jonathan Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com LAKE PLACID — During a speech at West Point last week, President Barack Obama announced his plan to send 30,000 more troops to war-torn Afghanistan in an effort to seal victory over Al Qaeda and Taliban forces. The president’s long-awaited speech was met with mixed reviews from politicians and the public alike. Some say Obama’s 18-month timeline for withdrawal should have been left out of the plan; others wanted the U.S. to pull out of Afghanistan altogether. But for some, like Lake Placid native Sean Kane, the president’s address brought a sense of relief – and a sense of purpose. Sean Kane is a captain in the Second Battalion 22nd Infantry Regiment, First Brigade Combat Team 10th Mountain Division. He’s already served 15 months in Iraq, and on Monday he received his deployment orders. “Now we’re trying to get a finalized timeline for when we actually leave,” he said. “It’s
nice to have some resolution.” Kane, 27, is a graduate of Northwood School. He attended St. Lawrence University and enrolled in the Army not long after graduation in 2005. Much has been made of Obama’s lengthy decision-making process leading up to Tuesday. But for Kane, the lag time between deployments is part of the job. “We were all pretty excited once our brigade was off-ramped from our Iraq commitment; we basically went into a planning and training mode,” he said. “There’s obviously some questions floating around, we were all kind of wondering what was going to happen. But it’s one of those things where when one commitment goes away you stand by and wait for something else to come down and until that happens, you enjoy the time you have at home with your family and friends.” On Tuesday, Kane was watching Obama’s speech with some co-workers at his apartment in Watertown. His own reaction to the announcement was mixed. “For me it’s kind of a strange personal feel-
ing because you sort of question what’s going to happen,” Kane said. “But up until they give us the go-ahead, you pull yourself out of the situation and not really worry until you hear one way or the other.” And as troops await specific orders, Kane says it’s business as usual at Fort Drum. “We continue to train for overall readiness without any specific mission,” he said. “We make sure everybody is fit and that they’re ready to go.” Some reports indicate that morale at Fort Drum is faltering, but Kane notes that just having orders is a boost. “It makes things easier when you have an idea of where you’re going to go,” he said. For Kane, the Army is his job. He’s the air planning officer at Fort Drum, and while at home he passes time in his office planning air operations. But the fact that he makes his career serving in the military doesn’t make the reality of fighting in Afghanistan any easier for his parents. “From the family side of things, my mom
and dad are always concerned,” Kane said. “My younger brother is in the army as well. For parents with two sons in the military, there’s always a question of what’s going to happen next. They start to try and mentally prepare themselves. But I think everyone sort of expected what happened Tuesday night and I don’t think there was anything too surprising.” Sean’s younger brother, Michael Kane, is an infantry officer in the Army and handles logistics for a company 130 strong. Mike served in Iraq as well, and is currently waiting to finish his time in the service. Rob Kane – Sean’s cousin – served two tours in Iraq. He signs out of the Marine Corp next week. All three men grew up and went to school in Lake Placid. The debate over what course to take in Afghanistan will no doubt continue. Politicians will argue, the public will speculate, and the rhetoric will pile up. But for Sean Kane and the rest of America’s brave service men and women, there’s a sense of relief in just knowing what’s next.

BLUE MOUNTAIN LAKE — The Adirondack Museum is hoping residents in the TriLakes area can help solve the mystery surrounding an old, locally-produced photograph. The late Saranac Lake photographer William F. Kollecker is recognized today as the most successful and prolific photographer in the village's history. During the early 20th century, he produced a rich collection of photographs of the Saranac Lake area, many of which are preserved in the Adirondack Collection of the Saranac Lake Free Library.

The museum is planning to use the photograph in advertising for its 2010 Cabin Fever Sunday Series, and is aiming to complete the historical record connected with it and, if possible, learn the names of the children.

WPTZ seeking Toys for Kids donations PLATTSBURGH — NewsChannel 5 has partnered once again with the Marine Corps League and the Salvation Army for its tenth annual “Toys for Kids” campaign. This year ’s campaign is sponsored by Citizen’s Bank and Della Auto Group. Now through Christmas Eve, viewers are invited to drop off a new, unwrapped toy at the station’s locations in Colchester and Plattsburgh during regular business hours Monday through Friday. Alternatively, toys may be placed in one of the many red toy collection barrels located at businesses and organizations all across the region. NewsChannel 5 Chief Meteorologist Tom Messner is again spokesperson for the campaign. “This has been a really tough year for a lot of our friends and neighbors,” said Messner, “and we’re asking people to give extra generously to make sure every child has something to smile about on Christmas morning. It means so much to the kids and their parents.” A list of barrel locations for those who would like to donate toys can be found on the station’s website, wptz.com. Application information for people who need toy/gift assistance is also available on the site.

SLCS may cut sports amidst declining enrollment By Jonathan Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com SARANAC LAKE — With enrollment on a perpetual decline, Saranac Lake Central School District Athletic Director Mark Farmer thinks it may be time to start preparing for the inevitable: axing some of the schools many sports teams. On Wednesday, Farmer petitioned the district’s board of education to create a committee for the pending reduction in offerings. He said it should include the superintendent and several school officials, the chair of the school board and possibly a citizen representative. “I would encourage the board to consider how will handle that situation so when it comes we do it in a fair and equitable manner,” Farmer said. “To that end, I put together some ideas to think about. I am not saying this is the exact way to do it, but we need to think about it in case we have to put in place.” He said the committee should consider such variables as a programs cost, its local tradition and the amount of student involvement. Title IX, which requires equal access to sports between the sexes, would also have to be a primary consideration. Saranac Lake Central School District has nearly a dozen different athletic offerings, many of them created in the 1990s when enrollment swelled and money was plentiful. “A lot of our programs were added without much thought

in the 90s,” Farmer said. “It is very possible that we may not be able to maintain all of them in the very near future.” Between 1990 and 2007, total public school enrollment in the park dropped about 20 percent, or 120,000 students. In the 1990s, Saranac Lake was regularly graduating classes in excess of 140 students, but now the numbers are typically closer to 90, and are expected to drop even further over the next five years. Athletics in the park’s heart have been suffering for a decade. In recent years, Minerva and Newcomb school districts and Long Lake and Indian Lake school districts have combined their sports programs just to field teams. Farmer said that no one athletic program has been particularly hard hit as of yet, but the declining trend is noticeable. “When you have lower numbers and the same percentage participating, that’s when you have declining numbers on teams,” Farmer said. “I don’t want any student or any team or any parent to not get a fair and objective look. I think this is a policy that works both ways. In prosperous times and you are adding programs you want to do it fair and orderly and when you have to reduce you want it to be done the same way.” About 30 percent of the Saranac Lake student body participated in sports this year. And for Farmer, maintaining the school’s athletic viability is all about keeping the students interested.

Fitting in not always important
S
o many young people that I have encountered struggle to “fit in” or to “be part of the group.” Some feel that something is wrong with them or that they are somehow abnormal because they are not the most popular or do not have lots of friends. A significant flaw is imbedded in this line of reasoning. While human beings are social animals, we are not pack or herd animals. We By Scot Hurlburt survive or fail largely on our individual ability and actions for the most part. Humans choose to be social and function well when they are, and many function equally well when they keep more to themselves. Functioning as an extrovert with many social relationships does not necessarily make you any happier or better off than someone that maintains fewer relationships. As in almost every relationship, the quality and meaningfulness of the relationship matters most. There are many notable examples of individuals that we would consider isolated loners who accomplished great things; Bill Gates and Thomas Edison come to mind. When Galileo hypothesized that the earth moved around the sun and not the sun around the earth, he was severely punished. When early scientists explained that the earth was not flat they were thought to be insane. Almost all independent thinkers offend conventional wisdom. If everyone wilted in the face of popular opinion or the desire to “fit in,” our world would look very different and much less evolved. Maybe if children were taught at a young age to politely say “no thanks” sometimes when risky situations arise. They might be empowered to be more dismissive of the mean people that they will undoubtedly sometimes encounter. We spend plenty of time pressuring children to say yes, to yield to our wishes. If we always expect children to yield to us as adults, we could be making them more vulnerable to saying yes to situations that maybe damaging physically, socially and psychologically. There will always be opportunists that will exploit a young person who is almost always willing to please others, even at their own peril. Healthy people allow other people to think for themselves, to follow their own ideas and notions. Crucial to these assumptions is the right of everyone else to do the same. It can be a real epiphany to understand that each of us controls our thoughts and actions, no one else. We cannot control what others do and we cannot control what they think of us. I am not suggesting carelessness, but rather an adaptive indifference to that which is unalterable. In other words, if you know someone that is a jerk to you, avoid them if possible and if not, dismiss their impact on your life. You do have control over how you feel. Sometimes it is okay to just say, “Who cares.” Remember, all kids count.

A pale imitation A
couple of years ago, when I still operated under the delusion that doing good things for other people was worthwhile, I decided to donate blood to the Red Cross. I’d considered giving blood before, but my fear of needles – and my certainty that I’d faint during or immediately following the blood-letting, thus sullying my image as a local street tough – had always kept me away. Why did I finally decide to face my fear and risk humiliation? Simple: the money. I assumed that, since I was giving the Red Cross the gift of my pristine lifeblood, the Red Cross would give me the gift of its pristine cash – preferably in the form of a crisp 20 passed to me surreptitiously (and with a wink) via handshake as I stumbled from the blood-draining chamber. But I kid. I knew all I could expect in exchange for my pristine lifeblood was a cookie, a cup of orange juice, and the feeling that I’d subjected myself to incredible discomfort in order to help someone in need – and I didn’t particularly care about the cookie or the OJ (okay, I cared about the cookie, but my feelings toward the OJ were lukewarm at best). In short, my desire to feel good about myself outweighed my desire to avoid incredible discomfort. I began my training regimen three months before the blood drive – and by “began my training regimen” I mean “applied several dozen leeches to my arms and chest and let them feast on my blood for hours at a time.” As I saw it, the leech treatment – which had been all the rage during the Middle Ages (also known as “the early 1970s”) – was analogous to training for a marathon by running in the mountains of Kenya. Except instead of improving my endurance, I lost a significant amount of blood. Still, I entered the lobby of North Country Community College’s gymnasium, where the blood drive was being held, with the confidence of a lumberjack entering a pancake-eating contest. I intended to give more blood in one sitting than anybody ever in the history of Red Cross blood drives – ever. I knew the medical professionals on hand would initially pooh-pooh my insistence on donating enough blood to fill a child’s wading pool, but I’d gently shush them, and they’d watch in wonder as I accomplished my goal. They might even
SATURDAY December 12, 2009 present me with a ribbon afterwards. Head held high, smug grin plastered across my face, I strode to the registration table, took a form, and sat down to fill it out. Everything went smoothly until I accidentally glanced toward the basketball court. The doors were open and I got a clear glimpse of several blood donors sprawled limply on gurneys, red-stained gauze By Dan Leonidas pads in the crooks of their elbows, sipping OJ and eating cookies. My stomach did a double flip and my throat constricted. I tried to continue filling out the registration form, but my vision blurred and I found I couldn’t keep a grip on my pen; it tumbled from my weak, clammy fingers and clattered to the floor. I stood up and lurched to the registration table, dropping my incomplete form before the wide-eyed attendant. “This isn’t going to work for me,” I gasped. As I fled, my face burning with shame, I hoped everyone in the lobby thought that I’d come down with a spontaneous case of the flu, but I’m pretty sure they thought that I’d come down with a spontaneous case of the shameless cowardice. And they were right. But I’m not ashamed of my cowardice anymore. Don’t get me wrong – I greatly respect actual blood donors. Indeed, to regard such masochists with anything but respect is asking for trouble. Who knows what such selfless do-gooders are capable of? They neither feel pain nor have any sense of selfpreservation, willing as they are to let strangers stick them full of needles and drain gallons of their vital fluids at a time. Nonetheless, blood-donors make the world a better place, and, deep down, I still aspire to one day join their hallowed ranks. What’s the worst that can happen? The nurse getting distracted and accidentally draining every drop of blood from my body, leaving me a “pale imitation” of my former self? Yes, that’s probably the worst that can happen.

How ‘Catalina’ coupons can help you save
I
f you’ve shopped for groceries at a large supermarket, you’ve undoubtedly noticed the long “string” of coupons that print out at the register along with your store receipt. These checkout coupons, or “Catalinas,” as coupon shoppers commonly call them, are incredibly valuable to coupon shoppers. (Catalina Marketing Corp. introduced the computer system that issues checkout coupons about 25 years ago, although the company says it’s not sure how or why shoppers picked up on the name.) If you’ve ever taken a look at the kinds of Catalinas that print after your shopping trip, you’ll notice that they typically fall into three categories: money-off coupons for specific products, coupons for money off on your next shopping trip or alerts of upcoming sales. A shopper receives money-off Catalinas when the UPCs of certain items in their cart are scanned at checkout time. The register “sees” a certain brand or type of item you are purchasing and spits out a Catalina that offers a discount on a competing item that you may consider purchasing in the future. Last week I purchased a certain brand of apple juice and received a $1 checkout coupon for a competitor ’s brand of apple juice. You may even receive a coupon for a free item! Just in the last month, I bought one variety of pet treats and received a coupon for a free package of treats from a competing brand. A couple of weeks later, I bought one brand of yogurt and received a Catalina for a free 4-pack of a competitor ’s brand of yogurt. The second type of Catalina is issued during a general money-back sale at the store. You may see a store ad that states, “Buy any 10 products in this group and receive $10 off your next order.” That $10 savings comes in the form of a checkout coupon good for $10 off your next shopping trip. The discount is good on anything in the store. It’s just like having $10 cash to spend. The third kind of checkout coupon is an “alert.” These coupon alerts aren’t technically coupons, since they don’t

offer money off anything in particular, but they do contain details of an upcoming sale at the store. These “secret” sales are typically not advertised in any of the store’s flyers, so these checkout alerts are the only way shoppers can get in on the savings. Unfortunately, many shoppers consistently overlook the value of checkout coupons. It’s true that carryBy Jill Cataldo ing a long, somewhat cumbersome ticker-tape of Catalinas with your receipt as you exit the store can be a mild annoyance. But the value of all three of these varieties of coupon cannot be overstated. They’re all important, and you should save them all. I certainly do! Just as we save all of our coupons that come in the newspaper, even the ones for things we think we may not buy, saving all of our Catalina coupons ensures that we’ll have them on hand in case those items go on sale too. Almost two months ago, I received three $1 coupons for a smoothie beverage that I’d never tried before. Even though this is a product I wasn’t terribly interested in purchasing, I held onto the Catalina coupons. A few weeks ago, just before those coupons were due to expire … the smoothies went on sale for $1. Because I’d saved my Catalinas, now I got three of them for free! © CTW Features

uring the summer, I can spend hours just looking at a garden alive with butterflies, birds, bees, and blossoms. But, up here, it seems like the time to enjoy the blossoms is so short compared to the time the garden is empty of plants and pollinators. Despite the lack of actively growing plants, there is still plenty to do in the garden. If you have a vegetable garden, now is the time to make sure all the garden debris is raked up and the garden is put to bed. It’s important to clean up all the dead foliage every fall, because garden pests and plant diseases can overwinter in garden debris and cause problems in the garden next year. If you had early blight or powdery mildew this season, be sure to be thorough with fall garden clean-up. These steps also help to prevent viruses, thrips, and problem beetles (such as potato beetles and flea beetles): Start by pulling up all the plants and weeds in the garden. Get the roots and all. Then shred and compost any healthy plant material. The weeds and diseased plants should be bagged and disposed of in the garbage. Rake up all the remaining plant debris.
Next, rake up any fallen tree leaves from your lawn area or if you don’t have leaves in your lawn, snag some of your neighbor ’s leaves. Run the leaves over with a mulching lawnmower and add them to the garden bed. In the spring, turn or till the remaining leaves into the soil to improve your gardens fertility. It really is amazing how a little extra time spend cleaning up the garden now, will make for a healthier garden next year!

Adirondack Harper conveys Christmas tale WILMINGTON — The Whiteface Community United Methodist Church in Wilmington will be transformed into a far away Scandinavian garden, monestary, and mysterious forest when Martha Gallagher, The Adirondack Harper, performs her concert, “The Christmas Rose,” on Friday, Dec.11. With Celtic harp in hand, Gallagher tells this unusual story through original music and spoken word, weaving together song and story, music and legend. The concert is inspired by “The Legend of the Christmas Rose,” a story written by Sweden’s Selma Lagerlof, 1909 Nobel recipient for Literature. “My imagination was captured by this story the very first time I heard it, read by a Viking descendant by the light of the real candles that burned on his Christmas tree on a snowy winter night many years ago,” said Gallagher. The Scandinavian story takes place in a monestary garden, a poor village, and a deep, dark northern forest. It features thieves, monks, robber women, herbs, wild animals — and wilder children — all tied up in an illustrious tale of danger, faith, mistrust, love and miracles. “The tale is unusual, captivating and perfect for the darkest time of the year,” said Gallagher, “when light

Martha Gallagher and miracles abound throughout the many celebrations and traditions of the season.” “Although its basis is in Christian beliefs, the miracles of the heart; the “heart” of the story, transcend any one religion, making it a universal tale of faith, joy, hope and love,” she added. Gallagher has been sharing her spirited, distinctive, and richly varied music with audiences for over 30 years. Known in the northeastern region of New York, where
she makes her home as The Adirondack Harper, she has performed with such luminaries as six-time Grammy winners, The Chieftains. Her extensive solo tours have taken her around the US and into Canada, with several tours sponsored by The National Endowment for the Arts. She has been featured on numerous television and radio programs; most recent appearances include BBC Television, Northeast Public Radio, and Good Morning Arizona.
The concert is suitable for adults and older children, but it is not intended for the attention span of young children, said Gallagher. The concert begins at 7 p.m. The church is located at 1169 Haselton Rd., Wilmington, NY; suggested donation is $10. For more information on the concert, call 9467757.

APA hires new senior attorney RAY BROOK — Adirondack Park Agency Chairman Curt Stiles and Executive Director Terry Martino have announced that Elizabeth Phillips, Esq. will join the Adirondack Park Agency as a Senior Attorney in the Legal Division, effective Dec. 16. “The Agency is very pleased that Ms. Phillips will join our legal division,” said Stiles. “Her extensive experience in land use administrative and environmental law will ensure an efficient transition into the APA and result in positive impacts for the Adirondack Park.” “With recent and pending retirements within the legal division, it was imperative that we quickly fill the Senior
Attorney vacancy,” said Martino. “Ms. Phillips’s experiences, background and education exceeded our qualifications and we are extremely fortunate to welcome her aboard. This move was an important component of ongoing restructuring within the legal division in anticipation of significant turnover in the coming years.” Phillips has worked for more than a decade in Anchorage, Alaska, representing municipalities and Native Alaska corporations on issues involving natural resource development, land use planning and environmental law. Her work included drafting and revising local land use ordinances as well as advising
clients on administrative and business law. “During the interview process it became clear that Ms. Phillips had a real sensitivity to the unique issues that face communities located in proximity to wilderness lands and rural landscapes,” said Martino. “We believe this will work in the best interest of all the Park’s stakeholders.” Most recently, Phillips was employed with the NYS Department of Motor Vehicles, where she conducted civil administrative hearings involving various aspects of the Vehicle and Traffic Law. Prior to DMV, she was a staff attorney in the law firm Boies, Schiller, and Flexner, LLP, located in
Albany, NY. Ms. Phillips earned her undergraduate degree from the University of California at Berkley and her law degree from the University of California at Davis, King Hall School of Law. She grew up in the southern tier of New York State and spends time camping and hiking in the Adirondacks.
