PLATTSBURGHÑ It is amazing how quickly a personÕ s life can change.

Malorie DroletteÕ s parents recently brought the 16-year-old girl to the doctor because she seemed to be suffering from a sinus infection.

As the doctor examined the lymph node glands on MalorieÕ s neck, she noticed a lump.

That lump resulted in a visit to Fletcher Allen Medical Center in Burlington, where Malorie was tested and later diagnosed with HodgkinÕ s lymphoma, a form of cancer that originates in white blood cells.

Now, about fi ve weeks after the March 11 di-agnosis, she and her family are frequently mak-ing the trip to Burlington for MalorieÕ s treat-ment schedule.

And Seton Catholic High School in Platts-burgh is trying to help Malorie and her fam-ily get through it by hosting the Knights of the Night Talent Show on Saturday, April 20.

The show is sponsored by SetonÕ s student council and music department, and all proceeds

from the event will help MalorieÕ s family pay for the treatment and transportation costs asso-ciated with her visits to Fletcher Allen.

Ò ItÕ s going to have students from group per-formance classes doing music, comedy and modern songs,Ó said Lita Kelly Paczak, music teacher at Seton Catholic. Ò WeÕ re also hoping to have a group of teachers perform, which is always hilarious. ItÕ ll be entertainment from all walks of musical life.Ó

The event is a perfect fi t for Malorie, who is a junior at the school.

Ò She loves to listen to music,Ó said MalorieÕ s mother, Danielle Drolette. Ò ItÕ s been her thera-py for years. It calms her.Ó

But now Malorie needs a different kind of therapyÑ chemotherapyÑ to help her beat HodgkinÕ s lymphoma.

That means she must travel to Fletcher Allen three days a week in cycles that are two weeks long.

After taking a week off, Malorie is now in her second cycle.

CHAMPLAIN Ñ Steve Merchant is sick of winter.To prove it, heÕ s organized a Ò Say Goodbye to WinterÓ bash

at Bowl Mart Lanes in Champlain on Saturday, April 20.The event, which has more of a say Ò good riddance to win-

terÓ theme, is the second of its kind for the area.Proceeds from the event will go toward improving the Sam-

uel de Champlain Center Stage in Rouses Point.The Peru-based band Just Us will provide music for the cel-

ebration. The band has been around for 28 years, but rhythm guitarist

and lead vocalist Joe Holland and bassist and vocalist Keith Collins are the only founding members still in the group.

Lead guitarist and vocalist Gene Palmer, who has been with the band for fi ve years, and drummer Keith Bushey, who has three years with the band, will complete the quartet on Satur-day.

The bandÕ s mem-bers might have changed through the years, but some things havenÕ tÑJust Us has always played classic rock, country rock and blues covers, and also likes to throw in some modern rock.

ItÕ s all just a part of life for Holland, who has been play-ing guitar since he was 10 years old.

Ò ItÕ s pretty much honed into me,Ó Holland said. Ò I think my dad was the fi rst person to realize it. He bought me an old Sears Silver Tone guitar and I went through the blisters, got to play-ing, and have been doing it ever since.Ó

The desire to play music, and to keep playing music, is some-thing Holland understands and wants everyone to have access to.

Ò Steve called me up and said he wanted to keep the stage go-ing this year,Ó Holland said. Ò Whether our band plays or not, it (Center Stage) is good for the community. I would hate to see something like that fall to the wayside.Ó

And if Merchant is successful, Center Stage will never fall to the wayside.

The 20-foot wide by 30-foot long stage was constructed four years ago using a combination of grants and donations from local businesses and individuals.

To date, about $30,000 has been put into it, but it isn’t fi n-ished yet.

“We still want to fi nish up and put stage lighting in there, and possibly build a dressing room off the back,Ó Merchant said.

Money raised at the Say Goodbye to Winter bash will go to-ward putting the fi nishing touches on the stage.

The bash will also serve as a precursor to the Rouses Point Summer Series, which will begin in July and include a variety of weekly performances ranging from magicians to bands.

Merchant sees more than entertainment value in Center Stage, though. He believes it is an asset, and that it has given people a reason to visit Rouses Point.

Ò ThereÕ s so much talent in the North Country, whether it be young or old, and they never get a chance to perform,Ó Mer-chant said. Ò This stage is giving people a chance to get out there and showcase themselves.Ó

LEWIS Ñ It took Matthew Cech little time as a member of the Essex County Sheriff Õ s Depart-ment to break his first big case.

Cech, 8 years old and from Plattsburgh, known to many in the North Country as Mighty Matthew, was sworn in by Sheriff Richard Cut-ting April 13 with a specific case in mind: help the department find the Lollipop Bandits.

On the line was the safety of suckers every-where and a reward of 400-plus lollipops for the person who brought the two bandits Ñ known as Bob Rice and Lloyd LaMotte Ñ to justice.

Ò They said that these guys had stole lolli-pops, and I love lollipops,Ó Cech said, adding that he has been interested in being a member of a police force because Ò they have tasers.Ó

Shortly after being sworn in, Mighty Mat-thew and Sheriff Cutting hit the road on patrol watching for a truck that fit the description of the one being driven by the bandits.

Indeed, Cech was able to spot the vehicle, and a chase ensued along a dirt road in Lewis before the bandits were pulled over and arrest-ed by the newest deputy.

Once in custody, Cech searched the vehicle, finding the evidence he needed, even taking the chance to sample the goods to make sure that it was indeed the lollipops in question.

Following processing and booking, Cech re-ceived his reward of lollipops, along with to-kens of the sheriff Õ s appreciation, including the Ò pepper sprayÓ he used to control the suspects.

As for what he would do with the spray, he gently said, Ò I am looking at you, Steven,Ó referring to his 14-year-old brother, who was made a member of MatthewÕ s posse along with 16-year-old brother Bradley.

For Mighty Matthew, it was another positive day that came between days of visits to the hos-pital and therapy as Cech fights against Mito-chondrial Disease.

Ò One of the deputiesÕ wives (Devann Mur-phy) had seen Matthew and his story and sent us a message that they would like to put some-thing together for him,Ó father Terry Cech said. Ò We communicated back and forth and got ev-erything set up.Ó

Terry said that moments like these help both Matthew and the family through the tough times.

Ò We are dealing with a chronic illness, and the outcome is not favorable,Ó he said. Ò The outpouring of community spirit and support has been fantastic. He is a lovable kid with such an upbeat attitude and he fights with might, which has been his motto. He had an absolute blast today, and it helps us all keep our minds off the daily doctors and trials.Ó

Ò It takes a lot of the stress off a typical day for him,Ó mom Lisa Cech said. Ò This is something fun where he can just go out and be a kid.Ó

Ò It was awesome to see this happen,Ó Mur-

phy said.Ò It went great,Ó Cutting said. Ò It was prob-

ably the highlight of my 35 years in service.ÓAlong with giving Matthew a chance to be a

kid, events like this also allow the family to con-tinue to shed light on Mitochondrial Disease, an inherited genetic condition that affects the parts of the body that need the most energy, such as the heart, brain, muscles and lungs.

“When he first became sick in 2006, we had never heard of this,Ó Terry Cech said. Ò It is something that we can do not only to help us but organizations that are working for a cure by putting a face locally to what they are trying to do.Ó

Ò This is a disease that takes the lives of more children then all of the childhood cancers com-bined,Ó Lisa Cech said. Ò We had the Mighty Matthew events, which is the superhero that he likes to be, and it has helped raise awareness and funds to help find a cure.”

MOOERS Ñ On April 10, DragoonÕ s Farm Equip-ment, Inc. celebrated its 60th anniversary.

They had door prizes, demos, discounts and served pancakes and sausage to thank the community for its support.

Gary Dragoon, part-owner of DragoonÕ s Farm Equipment, Inc. said a big Ò thank-youÓ was in order to everyone who made the anniversary day a success.

The business began with GaryÕ s grandfather, Floyd Dragoon, who opened the store in 1953.

Floyd tried farming and plumbing, and handed the store over to GaryÕ s father when he decided he wanted to stick with plumbing.

Ownership might have changed hands, but the store, which now employees 20 people, has always been in the Dragoon family.

ItÕ s not just about selling products, though.Dragoon’s has certified technicians in both farm

and lawn and garden equipment, which means they can service everything they sell there.

Ò It really separates us from the big box stores, for sure,Ó Gary said. Ò I think we have one of the best ser-vice departments around.Ó

DragoonÕ s carries both new and used products, and has a full line of equipment for farms, lawn and garden.

Their products include utility vehicles, chain saws, log splitters, mowers, overseeders, tillers and gas grills.

Dragoon’s Farm Equipment, Inc.

Much more work remains to be done

A statewide $25 million project to expand high-speed internet access in rural New York through the Connect NY Broadband Grant Program is welcome news.

The project includes $2.1 million to provide high-speed, low-cost broadband service to 457 households in the unserved areas of Schroon and North Hudson. The service will be delivered utilizing fiber to the home technology.

Also included is $557,000 for Essex County broadband service expansion. That money will pro-vide high-speed broadband service to households that do not have access in Jay and Wilmington, passing 1,900 homes. The project will also provide digital video services and potentially a competi-tive telephone service.

Statewide the projects will build approximately 6,000 square miles of new infrastructure and will provide high-speed internet service to 153,000 New York households, 8,000 businesses and 400 community anchor institutions.

While internet use has become the norm, itÕ s still not available in many areas. High-speed ser-vice, normally provided through cable companies, typically stops where cable television service ends. That means hundreds of rural areas remain without high-speed internet access.

High-speed internet expansion is crucial for the North Country, which faces the Ò digital divide.Ó The term was coined by sociologists to describe a split in American society between those with ac-cess to readily available information and those who do not. Most agree, people without access to the internet are at a disadvantage.

Information and communication technologies are vital in todayÕ s world, just as reading was centuries ago. Internet access can impact education, economic equality, social mobility and a host of other issues. TodayÕ s students need the internet. Most employment applications are now found on line. Facebook, Twitter and other internet social media dominate todayÕ s society.

Internet access also benefits entire communities. It can lead to a healthier democracy through in-creased public participation in elections and decision making processes. It can also foster economic development and growth.

Bridging the Ò digital divideÓ is necessary in a democratic society, otherwise the United States runs the risk of becoming a nation of Ò havesÓ and Ò have nots.Ó The Connect NY Broadband Grant Program should be lauded for its efforts.

But thereÕ s work to be done. Even after the announcement in March of 18 Connect NY Broad-band Grant Program projects, many rural areas will remain without high-speed internet. The state awarded $25 million for internet expansion, but $89 million was requested. That left many North Country communities still lagging. LetÕ s hope the Connect NY Broadband Grant Program contin-ues until all of New York has the internet access it needs.

Internet expansion key for region

United States politics is one of the biggest money businesses in the world. In so many ways the

channels to gain political influence can trump even the largest multi-national corporation. As citizens of this great nation, we would like to think those involved in the business of politics could look beyond petty skirmishes, but that, perhaps, would be expect-ing too much from those in control of our govern-ments.

Two examples recently came to light. The first oc-curred last week when the Senate chose to hold up a resolution honoring former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, who died on Monday, April 8 at age 87. The resolution was scheduled to pass late Wednesday prior to being sidelined by Sen-ate Democrats.

Could the reason for the snub be that the former Prime Minister was too closely aligned with Republican President Ronald Reagan? The purpose of a resolution like this is merely to show respect for and acknowl-edge a personÕ s contribution. The House of Representatives on Tuesday unanimously passed a resolution honoring Thatcher. The tribute cited Thatcher Õ s Ò life-long commit-ment to advancing freedom, liberty, and de-mocracy and for her friendship to the United States.Ó

The second example of political pettiness is taking place in New Rochelle, where the city council has refused to allow a veterans organization from displaying the Gadsden “Don’t Tread on Me” flag from the New Ro-chelle Armory.

It was after an official ceremony at the Ar-mory, in March, that a new American flag was unfurled to replace the previous weathered flag. Under the new flag was the flag known as the Gadsden, which is a common tradi-tion at many military sites. Within a week the New Rochelle City Manager ordered the Gadsden removed because of “unidentified complaints” that the flag is a symbol of the Tea Party. But after learning greater detail of the flag’s origin and lengthy tradition from

the veterans group United Veterans Memori-al and Patriotic Association of New Rochelle, the city manger decided he acted in haste

and rescinded his previous directive.

But the pettiness didnÕ t end there. The New Ro-chelle City Council entered the fray, overruled the city manager, and voted 5-2 to have the flag removed. The council objected to the flag because they said the presi-dent of the veterans group is a member of the Tea Party and wants to display the flag to push a politi-cal agenda. Despite denial from the groupÕ s president city DPW workers were ordered to confiscate the

Gadsden.The Gadsden flag, sometimes referred to

as the Jack, is steeped in U.S. history back to the countryÕ s founding days. It has been used by both the U.S. Marines and Navy since 1775 when Commodore Esek Hopkins used the First Navy Jack as a signal to en-gage the British in the American Revolution. Since the New Rochelle Armory was at one time a New York Naval Militia Armory and training facility for both the Navy and the Marines the flag has sentimental value and roots in that facility.

You have to wonder when you hear or read of events like these if values like respect, honor, tradition or appreciation of service have any basis in the business of big politics today? Surely these folks have more impor-tant issues to address than the fear of being one upped by a kind gesture to the deceased former Prime Minister or overlooking the short lived Tea PartyÕ s perceived association to a symbol long associated with American democracy and independence. I was always taught to speak kindly of the dead and have respect for those whoÕ ve served our country. Childish behavior has no place in American Politics nor in a serious society that seeks to uplift its people and encourage active par-ticipation.

Dear style & substance:

I live with my girlfriend and a female roommate. We are all around 23 years old, have graduated from college, and have jobs. The problem is we are all friends, but I donÕ t

necessarily feel close to my girlfriend in a relationship kind of way. I am not sure how to make a change from our group friend-ship to a couple within this setting and really need some sug-gestions.

It sounds like you are a bit trapped in Ô college behavior Õ , where banter and anything goes is more the norm. Wishing to have a more mature relationship will take some effort on both of your parts. It would be nice to first approach your girlfriend by say-ing, Ò I feel like our relationship has become less special with our current living situation and I am wondering how you are feel-ingÓ . See what her response is and build from there. She could very well be feeling the same way. This may seem a bit uncom-fortable, but your intention is sweet, committed, and truthful, so be certain not to send the message that something is Ò wrong.Ó

The continued growth will come from that simple agreement and the willingness to make some changes. When a coupleÕ s re-lationship is in a group living situation, it becomes less intimate purely by lack of privacy. Time and effort need to be put in by the two of you. Reflect back on how your relationship started and what you like to do together. Plan ahead; seize the time or mo-ments that you do have alone to focus on each other (with no t.v., cell phones or computers to distract you). Intimacy means that certain characteristics of your relationship are solely for the two of you and joking about these or indiscreetly disclosing these de-tails diminishes its value. Tighten up on this.

Once you have set a new course, having a conversation with your roommate may be an awkward, but honest way to keep the good vibe going. It takes a lot of Ò water and sunshineÓ to keep the relationship growing and thriving.

This same set of feelings and the need to reevaluate/rees-tablish a relationship can happen when a couple has their first child or a living situation changes with children coming and go-ing… Relationships evolve and become redefined over time and through experience. They are never static, at least the best ones arenÕ t!

LOWV membership on the grow

To the North Countryman:

It is my pleasure to tell you that our local League of Women Voters was recognized recently by the League of Women Voters of the United States (LWVUS) for significant growth in our mem-bership and our continued commitment to our community and the mission of the League of Women Voters.

In the past year, our membership has grown by well over 20 percent, thanks largely to our membership committee, the candi-datesÕ debate presented in cooperation with Mountain Lake PBS, our recent presentation on Campaign Finance Reform, monthly Forums with speakers including Dr. J. W. Wiley, Alice Recore, Dr. Stephen Leveston, and our presentations in Essex and at the Plattsburgh Public Library of the film, GASLAND.

Ò We are thrilled to see that the Plattsburgh League of Women Voters is thriving and committed to serving its community,Ó said national president Elisabeth MacNamara. Ò The League is a true grassroots organization. Without strong and devoted Leagues like PlattsburghÕ s, helping to make democracy work in commu-nities across the country, we would not have been able to accom-

plish all that we have over the last 93 years, nor would we be able to continue our mission for years to come.Ó

While we appreciate the recognition, we believe that the great-est possible reward is seeing more members of our community actively involved in the issues that are critical to all of us. We know that the more individuals who join the League to become part of our work, the better it is for all of us.

We welcome everyone to visit our website www.plattsburgh.ny/lwvnet.org and watch the local press for news of our next public event on 1 May at Plattsburgh Public Library.

Guest Viewpoint

Global warming a real threatIf Earth were an apple, the skin of the apple would be the

thickness of our worldÕ s atmosphere. Indeed, we are most fortunate in our distance from the sun: On one side of us,

we have the planet Venus which has extremely violent weather patterns with temperatures of 9000 F and 99 percent carbon di-oxide; on the other side, we have Mars, a dry planet where tem-peratures of -800 F are common. Indeed, our planetÕ s placement is most critical and fortunate.

Should We Be Worried?Should we be worried about our world warming up? My an-

swer is yes! Most of the north polar ice has melted leaving some 90 percent of the ice in the southern glacial Antarctic region. This is resulting in an increased heat and pressure/wind gradient causing unprecedented weather violence. Glacial melting with its added moisture could theoretically raise the water levels to disastrous levels flooding the coastal cities. This would occur especially if AntarcticÕ s west glacial mass were to break off and melt; and, because of all this, it would seem inevitable that the El Nino would also change Ñ a system in itself little understood. And, this has all happened much faster than history would pre-dict. For example, Ice Ages are roughly correlated to our planetÕ s

changing orbit, tilt, and gyration; global change in temperatures of 2 or 30 F can transform the landscape with a noticeable effect, as suggested above. These changing patterns occur over thou-sands of years.

The primary cause for this global warming and changing weather is the excess buildup of carbon dioxide in our atmo-sphere due to emissions from factories, houses, cities, automo-biles, ships, planes, etc.etc. Let’s first take a look at some of the Ò solutionsÓ already in place and the arguments for and against. Solar Power, making use of the heat of the sun, and Wind Power are used to generate heat in the winter and running fans and cooling units in the summer. Solar and wind are fine on an in-dividual level; but, on an industrial level we canÕ t get enough consistent energy to be cost effective.

Because coal and other carbon dioxide producing fuels are used to produce electricity we need to consider non-gaseous solutions, such as nuclear power. However, developing nuclear fission reactors and fusion reactors (still theoretical) is still in its infancy. Nuclear fusion (the power of the sun and stars) would be the better of the two but still has many problems. The major argument against nuclear power is what we do with the radioac-tive waste until it deteriorates enough to be safe. There are plenty of underground storage possibilities, though quite expensive. Another interesting observation is the danger in the Northern Rim, which is the total land mass north of the equator with con-siderably more than in the southern hemisphere. In The North, methane in the form of methane clathrates is locked up in the

permafrost; if the permafrost keeps melting, it will release a gas twenty times more potent than carbon dioxide. Another observa-tion is that, amazing as it seems, cities are considered green be-cause they are relatively efficient. Here we have the convenience of shopping, community contact, cultural events, cost effective transportation such as buses, subways, etcetera, and where we can walk, run, bike, skate, doing our chores Ñ good health ben-efits here. Indeed, if we had 70 to 80 percent of the world living in cities, we would free some three percent of land, which is about 1,800,000 square miles that could be used to grow crops, breed and graze cattle, develop fish hatcheries, and for forestation and recreation to keep species of wild life from extinction and for the production oxygen essential for life in general. We need sources that are not combustible and not land intensive as solar and wind power. We also need a universal, free thinking, uninhibited pub-lic and system of education without mass denial and unjustified prejudices. I cannot overstress education; indeed, the more the better! We must emphasize research in fission and fusion nuclear energy, and look for other possibilities. We must do the same with genetic engineering, which is what nature has been doing with all life forms for some 13.7 billon years, to improve our food and medical crops, develop better strains of food, fertilizers, and pesticides, herbicides, Ñ all things green. It is up to us as indi-viduals and the world governments Ñ Ò to do or die.Ó

GLENS FALLS Ñ In a rare visit to the region, state Budget Director Robert Megna told a gathering of civic leaders and citizens about how the newly-approved 2013-14 state budget ac-complishes a wide array of goals.

The new budget creates jobs, cuts taxes for middle-class fami-lies, boosts the minimum wage, reduces costs for businesses and increases education funding to its highest level ever Ñ yet hikes overall spending less than 2 percent, Megna said.

“Jobs are coming back, confidence is being restored, and as the Governor says, it is now a Ô new New York,Õ Ó Megna said.

An audience of about 80 people from all over Warren County attended MegnaÕ s presentation, and nearly a dozen asked him questions about the spending plan.

Megna noted that the last two budgets, crafted in compromise between Gov. Andrew Cuomo and the state legislature, repre-sented a dramatic rebound from a $10 billion deficit and had put the state back on a track of financial responsibility.

“We’ve put our fiscal house in order — and we’ve right-sized government while showing the nation that New York is open for business,Ó he said.

Taxes reduced, govt. spending cutMegna said that the dozens of state agencies were held to a

zero percent budget increase, state employee salaries were kept stable and employee benefits were re-structured to save taxpay-ers a substantial sum.

Ò We now have the lowest middle-class tax rates in 60 years,Ó he said, adding that families earning from $40,000 to $300,000 annually will be receiving a $350 rebate check this year.

Ò In 2012, 4.4 million new Yorkers received a tax cut, and there will be more this year,Ó he continued.

New budget to spur prosperityThe new budget reflects $800 million in business tax cuts, he

added. Small businesses, Megna said, will receive income tax exemptions totaling $141 million, and manufacturers will ex-perience a 25 percent reduction Ñ a total of $120 million Ñ in tax cuts, in an effort to prompt corporations to retain and create high-wage jobs.

The Cuomo administrationÕ s programs to boost employment have resulted in 300,000 new jobs since Jan. 2011, he said, adding he was floored by the data indicating that one-fifth of all new private-sector jobs in the U.S. during that time were created in New York State alone.

Hiked minimum wage offsetThe stateÕ s pending hike in the minimum wage from $7.25 to

$8.50 per hour, he said, wouldnÕ t burden businesses because the increased wages would be substantially offset by a tax credit for hiring teenage students at minimum wage Ñ credits that are pre-dicted to total $163 million statewide. He observed that 48,000 workers in the Capital Region earn less than $9 per hour.

He also said that through reform of unemployment insurance and workersÕ compensation, businesses in New York would save $1.2 billion, without decreasing benefits to workers.

Boost for high-tech innovationHe said that the budget provides for a program to prompt

innovation in industry, particularly in high-technology fields

through establishing Ò innovation hot spotsÓ in academic centers, launching 10 high-technology incubators and establishing tax in-centives for business ventures that evolve out of the research and development projects.

Ò WeÕ ll be working to keep young entrepreneurs with great ideas here in New York,Ó he said.

Education a budget priorityBoosting education is part of the plan to create new good-

paying jobs, Megna said, noting that the 1013-14 budget calls for increasing state investments in education by $936 million, a hike of 4.7 percent. The Capital Region alone would receive $47 million in additional state aid to education, he added. This aid includes $25 million for all-day pre-kindergarten, $20 million for extended learning time Ñ longer school days or school years; $11 million for rewarding high-performing teachers, and $4 mil-lion for early college programs in high schools. The state is to pay 100 percent of the cost of these initiatives, he said.

Funding for those with disabilitiesArea resident John Davidson expressed concern about the

pending $90 million cut in funding of programs for New Yorkers with developmental disabilities.

Megna replied that services and programs for these individu-als would not be effected, because the budget cuts Ñ prompted by reductions of $1.1 billion in federal Medicaid reimbursement Ñ would be offset by cuts in service agency administrative ex-

penses, prosecutions of fraud and elimination of overpayments.Ò The last thing we want to do is disrupt services for this popu-

lation,Ó he said.Glens Falls Economic Community Development Director Ed

Bartholomew said later he was pleased to hear MegnaÕ s commit-ment to the programs.

Ò ItÕ s good to hear his intent not to reduce funding to the ser-vices for these individuals, and hear his pledge to monitor the situation.Ó

Bartholomew said he hopes the Cuomo administration goes further in cutting costs for both businesses and residents Ñ par-ticularly by eliminating the utility tax, which received cuts in this budget.

Queensbury board member John Strough, responding to Meg-naÕ s comments on utility reform, suggested that the governor look into allowing municipalities to own their streetlights rather than lease them from electric utility corporations Ñ such a move could allow installation of far more efficient lighting, saving taxpayers money while aiding the environment, he said. Megna complimented Strough on his idea.

Bartholomew said he was pleased that Megna, credited by State Sen. Betty Little as a fiscal expert, personally visited Glens Falls to present the budget.

Ò He really knows his stuff,Ó Bartholomew said.Little also praised his expertise.Ò Bob Megna really knows the issues inside and out,Ó she said.

Ò ThereÕ s not a question you can ask that can stump him.Ó

State budget director details new initiatives in visit to area

In a public forum held Thursday, April 4, state Budget Director Bob Megna explains how the 2013-14 state budget balances new investments in job growth, education and innovation with tax cuts to families and businesses as well as reform to unemployment insurance and workers’ compensation — moves expected to provide $1.3 billion in savings to taxpayers.

ImaginariumFrom page 1

President Timothy Maggio said the group chose the Imaginari-um because of the museumÕ s promotion of quality learning and education.

Ò By helping fund our blast boredom exhibit campaign, you can provide your children and community with a childrenÕ s mu-seum that will continuously give back to our Plattsburgh area for our quality of life, economy and education,Ó Meschinelli said.

The Imaginarium ChildrenÕ s Museum was founded by com-munity-minded mothers and educators with a strong passion for fostering interactive inquiry and inspiring creativity in children and adults through moments of shared discovery.

Ò ItÕ s not just a great value to the students and the kids, itÕ s a great value to the whole family,Ó said Marty Mannix, a Platts-burgh town councilman. Ò Bottom line we have much to celebrate here.Ó

The Imaginarium ChildrenÕ s Museum provides shared expe-riences through interpretative and interactive exhibits such as the science room, a climbing wall and a glow room with a light up table. The exhibits are made for children to touch, climb on, experiment with and learn about while having fun. By exposing adults and children to unfamiliar concepts in a non-threatening, hands-on approach, and ensuring that the museum experience is accessible to those of differing abilities and backgrounds, the childrenÕ s museum creates bridges of understanding. The mu-seum incorporates art, science, math, music, literacy and other exhibits and programs for children to experience new things in a fun and educating way, Meschinelli said.

Ò Children are valuable resources, especially in communities where such programs have been reduced or completely elimi-nated from schools and libraries due to budget constraints,Ó Me-schinelli said.

The Imaginarium is a non-for profit organization. Meschinelli said with the help of fundraising the organization can hopefully move to a new location within the city of Plattsburgh or expand the building they currently occupy at 4709 State Route 9.

Ò We want to stay in Plattsburgh, this is a facility for people in the city, but we have already outgrown the space we are in,Ó Meschinelli said.

For more information call the Imaginarium at 324-7426 or visit their website at Imaginariumchildrensmuseum.org.

PSU Students help communityIn the past Cardinal Public Relations has directed its energy

to helping HannahÕ s Hope Fund, a program that supports Giant Axonal Neuropathy research. Giant Axonal Neuropathy (GAN) is a recessively inherited condition that results in progressive nerve death. Giant Axonal Neuropathy is believed to be caused by a loss of function disorder, meaning an intracellular protein needed for long-term nerve survival either isnÕ t being made, or is being immediately degraded before it can perform its job. Through the help of Cardinal Public Relations, HannahÕ s Hope was able to win $450,000 in the Pepsi Refresh Contest.

Ò Because of the this they now have resources to go to human trials for possible treatments of GAN,Ó Maggio said. Ò If we do find a cure for GAN, it will have started out with Clinton Coun-ty.Ó

Ò Cardinal PR has a vision for the Imaginarium,Ó Maggio said. Ò We see the Imaginarium providing a quality learning environ-ment and we know it can help the economy here and we want to help this non-for-profit.”

For more information about how to apply for help from Cardi-nal PR, contact future Cardinal PR President Bridgit Kasperski at [email protected] to submit a PR proposal.

“We like them to have specific focus when they present to us so we can see how we can help,Ó said Kasperski.

Knights of the NightFrom page 1

Ò SheÕ s responded well to the chemotherapy, and will have a cat scan done in a few weeks, and then they will determine if more chemo-therapy needs to be done,Ó Danielle said.

Since most cancer cells divide rapidly, c h e m o t h e r a p e u t i c agents target cells that divide rapidly.

This can lead to seri-ous side effects, since cells in the bone mar-row, digestive tract and hair follicles also divide rapidly, and are there-fore targeted, too.

MalorieÕ s parents are both supportive, though,

In an effort to show Malorie that theyÕ re all in it together, her father, Christopher, gave her a buzz cut after she began to lose her hair from the chemo tratments.

He then turned the clippers on himself and Danielle.

Changes like that have taken some getting used toÑ the familyÕ s life is much different than it was just two months agoÑ but Danielle said there is a silver lining.

Ò Malorie says she now knows what she wants to do after high school next year, and that is to be a nurse,Ó Danielle said. Ò She sees how compassion-ate they are, especially with the kids.Ó

ThereÕ s a 90 percent success rate for Hodg-kinÕ s lymphoma, so everyone, including Malorie, is hopeful.

She is so hopeful, in fact, that sheÕ s even set a short-term goal for

herself.Ò She wants to be well enough to attend her

junior prom on May 11,Ó Danielle said. Ò SheÕ s never been to one before, and she says sheÕ s go-ing to make it.Ó

Spring 2013 Sports Preview

Northeastern Clinton CougarsBaseball

The Northeastern Clinton varsity boys baseball team will bring an experienced team to the field in 2013, including at the key position on the mound.

Ò Expectations are good for this season with eight returning players and three returning pitchers in Marcus LeFebvre, Ma-son Letourneau and Alex Lamberton,Ó head coach Jerry Davison said. Ò Having depth on the mound really helps with a 15-game schedule in five weeks time,” Davison said. “If we are going to compete for the top spot, we need to make improvements in a few areas, but this team could be fun to watch and successful if they continue to work.Ó

Returning players to the Cougars include seniors Lamber-ton, LeFebvre Jacob Jennett, Kyle McCarthy and Josh Rabideau; along with juniors Letourneau, Reece Tucker and Garrett Begore.

Newcomers to the squad include seniors Kevin Sousa and Chris Juhasz along with juniors Austin Forkey, Tanner Magoon, Aaron Mesick and Brent Stein.

Girls track and fieldWhere the Northeastern Clinton varsity girls track and field

team may lack in numbers, they more than make up for in state and Division I level talent.

Ò We have three returning players that have been to the New York State Track and Field meet in past years,Ó head coach Ann Lynch said. Ò Senior Mallory Honan, who will be going to UVM on an athletic and academic scholarship, has been to the State Track and Field meet every year since she was in eighth grade. Last year she placed fifth in 100 hurdles and third in long jump clinching the section record.

Ò Senior Celine Bouvier attended in 2011 for high jump and the 4x4 relay,Ó Lynch added. Ò Junior Samantha Smith was also a leg of the 2011 relay and will be a contender in the league this year in the distance events.Ó

Lynch said that there will be several other athletes to watch as the 2013 season progresses.

“Other athletes to watch for are Oriana Laflesh in the throwing events and Jessica Cartier in the middle distance runs,Ó Lynch said. “We have some talented newcomers that will be finding their spots in the first few meets of the season.”

Lynch said that the team should be able to continue to reset the

local record books.Ò The 2012 team bested eight school and two section records,Ó

Lynch said. Ò We are looking forward to taking athletes to the NYS Track and Field meet again and have our sites on more of the school and section records.Ó

Members of the Lady Cougars team include seniors Bouvier, Honan and Devin Gosselin; juniors Laflesh, Smith and Chris-tina Tomah; sophomores Ellen Reed and Brianna Smith; fresh-men Cartier, Samantha Gallucci, Kelsy Kellison, Maria Lefebvre, Amanda Ondras, Victoria Ruger, Alexis Sample and Adie Stein-feld.

Boys track and fieldWhile the 2012 season was one of rebuilding for the Northeast-

ern Clinton boys varsity track and field team, 2013 brings with it experience in the lanes and on the field.

Ò This year we have plenty of seasoned runners that show great promise,Ó head coach Nick Trombley said. Ò Two runners to watch for are Thomas Bedard in the 800 and Rodney Grimshaw in the 400. They both have worked hard thus far in the season and look to break school records. Our team has plenty of throw-ers, both experienced and new, that have a great deal of talent.Ó

Along with Bedard and Grimshaw, the Cougars roster will in-clude Spencer Parsons, Ethan Favreau, Richard Gray, Josh Gero, Matt Nigro, Erich Lutz, Wyatt Rivers, Brian Royea, Timothy Bedard, Mathew Orr, Jon Filion, Tyler Bosley, Jake MacDougal, Ryan Parent, Austin Gonyo, Eli Matton, Anthony Piche, Avery Trombley, Chris Boyse, Colby Provost and Ryan Brink.

GolfThe Northeastern Clinton varsity golf team will return expe-

rienced players that will take each on the six starting positions in 2013.

Ò Our team has experience in all starting positions,Ó coach Matt Fredette said. Ò I didnÕ t lose any starters to graduation. The players I have on the team have a great deal of competitive ex-perience. Nolan Reid should be my number one player and he has qualified for the state tournament the past two years. The strength of the lineup will be its depth.Ó

Fredette said that there could be competition at the back end of the lineup which could include newcomers Chad Littlefield and Nicholas Palmer.

Ò I am hopeful that some players who did not start last year

will improve their play and complete our starting lineup,Ó he said.

The Cougars roster includes seniors Reid, Allie Cartier, Alex Duffy, Dylan Gooley, Zachary Guay, and Cody Young; juniors Rachel Arless, Curtis Bosley, Joel Herzog, Chris Kokes, Jordan LaMere, Nicholas Palmer, Christina Paola, John Pelkey and Joey Robert; sophomores Jason Belrose, Hailey Hall, Jacob LaFoun-tain, Chad Littlefield, and Cole Pinsonneault; freshmen Justin LaPan and Matt Snide; eighth grader Travis Littlefield and sev-enth graders Anthony Barcomb, Cole Dibernardo, Ryley Duffy and Zachory Harriman.

Chazy EaglesSoftball

The Chazy Lady Eagles girls varsity soft-ball team will look to improve on their 4-11 record from a year ago while welcoming sev-eral new players to the team.

Ò Half of our team is new to varsity,Ó head coach Liz Garrand said. Ò Our field will look very different as players will be in new posi-tions that best suit the teams needs and indi-vidual strengths.

Garrand said that she thinks the team has come together well and will continue to im-prove throughout the year.

Ò We have veteran players who are moti-vated and rookies who are eager to excel,Ó Garrand said. Ò This team is showing its chemistry to be one of its strong points, and we hope to make that show on the field.Ó

Returning to the Eagles roster are seniors Megan Reynolds and Michaela Cahoon; ju-niors Brianna Rotella, Paige Garnot and Amber Polomsky; and sophomore Paige Bar-comb.

Newcomers include senior Alexis Guay; sophomores Brittany Nestle, Kallie McGrath, Skyler Thomas and Zina Peete; and eighth graders Bailey Pepper and Taylor Laurin.

BaseballThe Chazy varsity boys baseball team is

looking to return to the top of the Class D mountain two years after capturing the sec-tional title.

Ò We return a very experienced team in 2013, which will include five-year varsity starter Nathan Reynolds along with our number one pitcher Kyle Bisonette,Ó head coach Brian Norcross said. Ò We also return veteran infielders Craig Botten, and Hayden Guay. Other returning starters are Jacob Ken-nedy, Alec LaPierre and Justin Roy. Our goal is to compete for a sectional title in the 2013 season, which we feel is a very realistic goal for our club. We need good quality starts from our pitchers.Ó

Norcross said he felt the team will be a threat from each position in the batting or-der.

Ò Our team strength is that we have a solid 1-9 lineup where each spot in the order will

produce for us this season,Ó he said.The Eagles roster includes seniors Reyn-

olds, Bisonette, Botten, Kennedy, Roy, Josh Peete, Justin Brothers and Dustin Miller; juniors Guay, LaPierre, Nick Averill, Dylan Garrow and Dylan Doran; and sophomores Zach Brothers, Josh Barriere and Alex Du-prey.

Fire and ashSpring is here and the woodstoves will be going into the

summer mode. They will be shut down and cleaned out, semi-retired for the season. Wood ash will be

shoveled out and put into ash buckets and dumped over the bank, along with the winter Õ s worth of cleanings, probably 5 to 10 buckets worth.

Whoa, letÕ s backtrack in time, and reevaluate what we have here. Wood ash is not a waste product. Wood ash is a valuable natural resource, from a renewable resource Ñ trees! This so called waste product has many uses.

First let’s look at where it came from, and then we will fi g-ure out where it should go.

A tree starts out as a seedling, and then grows to a sapling, then to a small tree or pole timber, then to a saw log, and fi nally to old age, unless Mr. Stihl or Mr. Husqvarna decide to intervene, and turn the tree into a log for boards or for fi re wood. Cull-ing out damaged, diseased or inferior species of trees for fi rewood or other wood products are sound forestry and silvicultural practices and should be encouraged, not frowned upon. Try to leave a few dead trees per acre for cavity nesting birds.

As a tree grows, the nutrients and water in the soil are taken in by the root hairs and trans-ported throughout the tree. Nutrients and minerals such as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, calcium, iron, and other trace minerals are taken in through the roots, which also support the tree. Much of what is taken up depends on what is in the soil. Rich soils versus nutrient poor soils make a difference in the quality of the tree, type of tree and nutrients in the tree. Some trees like aspen (popple) are higher in calcium, while others have different ratios of minerals in them.

OK, we have looked at the roots. Now, what about the leaves? The leaves are involved in the greatest wonder of the ecological world; photosynthesis. This stuff is very cool. Without this process, there would be no vegetation on earth. We would not exist. The earth would be a dead rock fl oating around in space. (Some scientists will call me out on this and say there would be some slime mold or something weird like that that would grow, but hey, IÕ m trying to keep it simple). Photosynthesis is the process where solar energy is converted to chemical energy. Car-bon dioxide, water, and sunlight are used to produce glucose, oxygen and water. The chemical reaction is 6CO two, 12H two O plus sunlight ---converts to C two H twelve O six and 6 O two and 6H two O. Which means carbon dioxide and water plus sunlight converts in the leaf to glucose (sugar) with oxygen and water given off. Solar energy is being converted to chemical energy.

The minerals and nutrients along with the glucose and water combined with the biological process of cell division and all the other wonders of growth make a tree, shrub, fl ower, alfalfa, green bean, corn plant and grass plant that feeds wildlife, dairy cows and grass-fed beef. This stuff is the real deal, not science fi ction.

So, you had your dry fi rewood (clean wood, no paint or wood preservatives) stacked up. You’ve handled it 3, 4 or 5 times now and it’s fi nally made it to the stove. The fi nal heating cycle you get from the wood is when you burn it. Now you ask, what is the burning process?

Living things are made of oxygen, carbon and hydrogen along with all the minerals that we got from the roots and the glucose from the leaves. When wood gets hot it, the chemical bonds of the cells and structure of the wood start breaking down and they releases gases; hydrogen is one of them. This process is called pyrolysis. The released gases, burn due to the addition of oxy-gen from the air. Parts of the wood like sap and resins have greater deposits of glucose which is a volatile compound, making it very fl ammable. The carbon and minerals are resistant to burning. ThatÕ s what your ash is composed of, the left over products of combustion that didnÕ t burn, carbon (charcoal) and minerals, which added together we call ASH. Depending upon the temperature in the woodstove, more or less of the carbon compounds get burned off. The high temperatures due to increased oxygen, burn off more carbon leaving only minerals. Now you know what ash is! So what do you do with it?

Ash is used as a soil amendment to increase the pH of the soil. You can add all of those min-erals that the roots took in over the years and spread them around the yard for growing grass, trees, and in your garden. Check out gardening books and see what the pH should be for the plants you are growing. You donÕ t want to try growing acid loving plants like blueberries in neutral, alkaline soils. Most of the recommendations IÕ ve seen, say about 10 pounds of ash per 1,000 square feet to start with. Ash has potassium and potash in it, but no nitrogen, which is burned off.

Common sense says; make sure the fi re in the coals and ash is completely out before you use it. Sadly, common sense doesn’t prevail anymore so I must resay it. Make sure the fi re is com-pletely out before you use it. As a fi refi ghter I don’t really want to make another house call at 3 a.m. Been there, done it! Stay up wind when you spread the ash, you donÕ t want to breathe it in.

Wood ash is used instead of salt on the walkways and driveways to add traction during icy weather. You can use it for traction in the barn. Mix it in with manure when you spread to add minerals to the soil and it can be sprinkled on plants as an insect repellent. Mixed in with com-post you get excellent nutrient rich fertilizer to spread around all those apple trees you released and pruned during the winter. Spread wood ash out on that new food plot seeding you did dur-ing the frost thaw period. Feed the plants, feed the wildlife! Over the years wood ash has also been used to make soap, and as a mild abrasive for polishing metals. And you thought it was just something to dump over the bank. This is simple recycling of nutrients. We are all part of natureÕ s circle of life. Our food comes from the earth.

I also have my thoughts about spreading it on stream-banks and ponds to slowly dissolve in the water to help in pH and add minerals for bugs, which feed fi sh of course. I can’t advise you to do this due to NYS DEC regulations. A permit may be required. Ash may be considered a waste product. So don’t do it without checking with DEC fi rst. You are on your own on this one.
