QUEENSBURY — Todd A.St. Louis has been coming upwith stories for as long as hecan remember. Now, thePlattsburgh native has putone of his stories in printwith his first published chil-dren’s book.
“Annie’s Lively Charac-ters” was recently releasedby Dorrance Publishing Inc.,Pittsburgh, Pa., and tells thestory of Annie, a young girlwhose powerful imagina-tion brings characters to lifein the books she reads heryounger brother, Thomas.While the book centers onAnnie and Thomas, the bookalso includes a minor char-acter named Captain Fuzz,
who was one of the maincharacters of St. Louis’ firstshort-story, “The Fuzz Peo-ple Meet the Invaders.”
That book, however, had aslightly smaller circulationthan Annie’s Lively Charac-ters.
“It was an assignment Ihad in sixth grade for Eng-lish class,” recalled St.Louis. “We had to read sto-ries to elementary schoolkids and the the story Iwrote was ‘The Fuzz PeopleMeet the Invaders.’ It wasabout guy named CaptainFuzz, who was the good guy,and Captain Captain, whowas the bad guy.”
“In the end, they learn thelesson fighting doesn’t real-ly solve anything,” St. Louiscontinued, “and they shake
hands and decide to getalong. All the kids reallywarmed up to it; they lovedit.”
The positive feedback hereceived on his first story fu-eled his passion for story-telling, said St. Louis, andwas something he carriedwith him into adulthood,making up bedtime storiesfor his own children.
“It just became a very niceway to connect with mykids,” said St. Louis. “Ratherthan having a book pickedoff the shelf that I wouldread to them, they really en-joyed the fact I would comeup with a story. There was aninteraction and it encour-aged them to use their imag-ination.”

PLATTSBURGH — Dur-ing their fifth anniversary,the Adirondack Humane So-ciety employees began towonder how their adoptedanimals were doing. So be-gan the annual animal re-union.
Now, six years later, theshelter is still offering thisunique chance for adoptedanimals to return with theirowners.
“We send an invitation toeveryone who’s adopted ananimal within the last yearand invite them to comeback to show off their ani-mal, or pick out another,”said ADKHS treasurer Lil-lian Cassidy. “In addition tothat, we just kind of open thedoors and let people fromthe public get a chance to seewhat’s going on.”
The open house and ani-mal reunion will be held at
the shelter, 134 Idaho Ave.,this Sunday, Sept. 13. Thepublic can attend anytimefrom 12-3 p.m.
“I would say it’s not un-usual that we’ve adoptedout at least a couple [ani-mals] each year, as a directresult of it,” Cassidy said.
Cassidy has also found theevent to be something thepublic actually looks for-ward to attending.
“I ran into someone theother day who actually tookin one of our fire dogs fromback in 2002,” she ex-plained. “She said to me, ‘So,when is the open house?’ Ithought, ‘This is amazing,people are really lookingforward to it.’”
The shelter has sent outmore than 400 invitations topeople who have adoptedanimals in the past year.
“It has been the best yearin terms of adoptions, in allthe years we’ve been open,

PLATTSBURGH — With-out Clinton CommunityCollege, Sandra and KenLushia’s lives may haveturned out differently.
At the age of 17, Sandra’sgoal was to get through col-lege, but after a family acci-dent, she left the State Uni-versity of New York atPlattsburgh, and soon afterKen proposed. They weremarried in January 1973.
“We had two sons and itwasn’t until our oldest onestarted kindergarten thatshe was able to get back toher longtime dream of goingto college,” explained Ken.“At that time, we checkedwith Clinton CommunityCollege, which worked outperfect, financially.”
Through morning coursesand Saturday classes, San-dra was able to graduatefrom CCC in two years, withhigh honors and perfect at-tendance.
From there, Sandra at-
tended SUNY Plattsburgh tocomplete her final twoyears, eventually becomingthe program coordinator forClinton County AddictionServices.
While Sandra attendedSUNY Plattsburgh, howev-er, Ken began taking coursesthrough CCC, receiving hisown degree and eventuallyworking in labor relations.
“Without Clinton Com-munity, our lives wouldhave been different,” saidKen. “We went basicallyfrom nothing in this world,to everything.”
However, on the eveningof March 31, Sandra lost herlife in a car crash on MilitaryTurnpike at the age of 54.
To honor her memory, Kenand his two sons have do-nated $10,000 to CCC as apart of the Sandra M. LushiaMemorial Scholarship Fund.The money will jumpstartthe scholarship with moneybeing added year after yearthrough a memorial bikeride, also in Sandra’s honor.
“We’d like to do a
fundraiser in the sense thatit would create an endow-ment that CCC could, yearafter year, be able to just getthe interest,” explained Ken.
This year, the bike ridewill be held next Saturday,
Sept. 19, but because of timerestraints, it won’t be theformal bike ride Ken hopesto have in the future.
“People are encouraged ...to come out and ride, walk,run, jog, whatever you want
to do,” said Ken.Participants will begin at
CCC and travel along Platts-burgh’s Heritage Trail, tothe Crete Memorial CivicCenter and back.
Upon returning to theschool, there will be hotdogs, hamburgers, andmake-your-own ice creamsundaes.
“What we would like todo is get people to come out,kind of celebrate her life. Be-cause we haven’t had muchof a chance to do that,” ex-plained Ken.
For more information, orto register for the event, con-tact Megan Morrissey-Kel-ley at 562-4195 or by e-mailat [email protected], by thisWednesday, Sept. 16. Theregistration fee of $10 willalso include food.
“Any treasures or any-thing we have, they’re onlybecause of this community,”said Ken.

BarbecueWhat did you do for Labor Day?
The 2009-10 HEAP Program opens Monday, Nov. 2.Eligible households with oil, kerosene, propane orwood heat will receive a regular HEAP benefit be-
tween $600 and $700 sent to their fuel company on their be-half. Other regular HEAP benefits range from $200-$400.Grants are based on household income, fuel type, size andcomposition.
In early September the New York State Office of Tempo-rary and Disability Assistance conducted early outreach tohouseholds containing a vulnerable member (senior 60 andolder or disabled) who received a HEAP benefit during thelast program year. HEAP applications were mailed to thesehouseholds with instructions to complete and return themto the Clinton County Office for the Aging for processing.
If a senior household received a HEAP benefit last seasonbut did not receive an application for HEAP in the month ofSeptember, they should contact the Clinton County Officefor the Aging at 565-4620 as soon as possible. Anyone elsewho received a regular Heap benefit last year will receive anapplication in the mail beginning mid-October.
Beginning Nov. 2, households with access to the Internetand who received a HEAP benefit last season can apply on-line or access an application by going towww.otda.state.ny.us. Click on the Home Energy AssistanceProgram and then on HEAP Application.
Once customers have accessed regular HEAP benefits,they may apply for an emergency HEAP grant for heating ifthey are at a quarter-tank of heating fuel or within 10 days
of being out of coal, wood, orpellets.
Emergency benefits forshutoffs of electric heat ornatural gas/electric are alsoavailable.
Eligible households will beable to access the emergencycomponent of HEAP by par-ticipating in a phone inter-view with the Clinton Coun-ty Energy Unit or with JCEO.
The monthly income eligi-bility guidelines based onnumber of person(s) perhousehold are as follows: 1 person, $2,030; 2 people, $2,657;3 people, $3,279; 4 people, $3,903; 5 people, $4,528; 6 people,$5,152; 7 people, $5,269; 8 people, $5,386; 9 people, $5,503;10 people, $5,620; 11 people, $6,029; and 11 or more people,and additional $468.
If you need more information regarding the HEAP pro-gram, and are a senior citizen, contact the Clinton CountyOffice for the Aging at 565-4620 or the Clinton County En-ergy Unit at 565-3258.

Understanding guidelines for the HEAP program
Senior Connection
Sometimes I catch an episode of “Cops” while flippingthrough the channels at night. A newer theme in-volves a sting operation where a car is left in a cer-
tain place as bait, say a high crime area, in hopes a car thiefwill happen by. The decoy is usually armed with audio andvideo recording capabilities to provide a rock-solid case forthe prosecutor as well as interest for the viewers. Let’s justsay the outcome is predictable and perpetrators are quicklyoff the street.
Security in the computer world has a similar mechanismthat works in the same fashion as the decoy car. The instru-ment, called a “honeypot,” is put in place by a security pro-fessional with the main purpose of collecting data of inter-est for those charged with providing network security.
SANS (an acronym for SysAdmin, Audit, Network, Secu-rity) is an institute devoted to information security trainingand certification. According to SANS, “Honey Pot Systemsare decoy servers or systems setup to gather information re-garding an attacker or intruder into your system.”
Similar to a burglar alarm at home, intrusion detection isa common means of network protection. A honeypot falls un-der the umbrella of intrusion detection but it goes well be-yond simply detecting intrusion. In some cases it offers it-self up as an easy target while capturing every bit of data for
later analysis. A honeypotmay be placed inside or out-side the firewall with some ofthem designed to operate un-der the pretense many in-truders will likely come backif they feel as though theyfound an easy target.
Honeypots allow networksecurity professionals tolearn more about methodsused by crackers to bypasssecurity and gain entry to de-vices on the network. Theyalso yield valuable informa-tion on the source of would-be intruders.

Joyce Darling
Adirondack Humane Society
Joyce was found outside a home in Peru with a hugescab on her neck. She was brought to the shelter,tested for FeLV/FIV, vaccinated and spayed. Her
sore is healing and she is coming out of her shell and be-coming the self-assured cat she knew she could be.
Darling arrived at the shelter in Nov. 2008, about 2years old. She was tested for FeLV/FIV, spayed and vac-cinated. She has a bit of an attitude although that is prob-ably due to the large number of cats she needs to con-tend with. One on one she is often very loving.

Go to the Beach When I teach coupon classes, one ofthe audience’s favorite lessonsare what I call the “best-kept se-
crets” of couponing. These are the secrets thathelp push your savings potential to the max-imum! Today I’ll share with you one of thebest and most exciting ways to get groceriesand other products for free. (And isn’t thatwhat we all want? Who doesn’t love freestuff?)
Secret #1: Coupons for “One Free Item”You may be surprised how many coupons
for free products exist! You can regularly findcoupons for free items in newspaper inserts,on the Internet or even in the stores you regularly shop. Theseare some of the easiest and most fun coupons to use! Recent-ly, our newspaper inserts had coupons for one free loaf of abrand-name bread, a free single-serving beverage and a freeair freshener. There’s nothing better than getting somethingfor free with little or no effort.
Or is there? You may be surprised to learn running right tothe store with a coupon for a free item isn’t necessarily thebest way to use these types of coupons. When I get one of thesecoupons I file it away and then I watch the sales. If my storefeatures this item in a “Buy One, Get One Free” (BOGO) sale,that’s when I redeem the coupon for the free item … becauseI will then get two of that item for free instead of one!
Why does this work? I’ll give you an example. I have acoupon for a free bag of frozen vegetables. The coupon statesit has a value of up to $1.99, which is what the store will re-ceive when they redeem the coupon. That’s also the normal
price of the vegetables. But when the store putsthe vegetables on sale BOGO, they’re sellingtwo bags for $1.99. If I walk in and buy twobags and pay cash, I’ll pay $1.99 and get two,right? The same thing happens when I use mycoupon for one free bag of vegetables. Thecoupon covers the $1.99 cost of the first bag,and the second bag is free.
This is all part of playing the coupon game.Getting one item for free is good, but gettingtwo items for free is even better! Now, if mycoupon gets close to the expiration date, ofcourse I will redeem it and get my free prod-uct. But it often pays to play the waiting game,as the BOGO sales will play out in your favor
more often than not.Over the course of the past few months, I kept track of the
coupons for free items that I accumulated: 38 in all. I held allof them and watched closely, matching them to BOGO salesover that time period. During that time frame, 31 of the itemswent on sale BOGO. By playing the waiting game, I was ableto get 62 free items with those 31 coupons! And with the re-maining seven coupons, of course, I still got those seven itemsfor free, too.
This truly is the best way to use coupons for one free item.You’re getting two … for the price of none! Next week I’llshare another best-kept coupon secret with you.

Keep Salmon River’srefreshed freedom
We’re told Franklin County DistrictAttorney Andy Schrader is disap-pointed over a recent Salmon Riverdam-demolition’s interruption of vol-leyball in the once-impounded watersnear his home. Does he hope to use hispolitical power for re-damming it (attaxpayer ’s expense)?
Was it artificially dammed for onlya hundred years, or 150? For thousands of years before that itmust have earned its name, for seasonally running thick withthe fish, in their headlong rush, sensing water chemistry fortraces from their birthplace brook, to ascertain right turns orlefts while retracing inward, their earlier outward journey tolake or sea.
In the process, they nourished waiting populations of bothbears and people, ready to just scoop up their more-than-ad-equate numbers, as their local ecosystem served all.
Throughout their existence, dams slow water flow, lettingsediment settle to reservoir-bottoms, behind them. Damsgone, the sand gradually washes away, clearing their streamback toward its natural state. Whether or not immediately be-fore Mr. Schrader ’s proposed deadline of next spring, this willhappen.
Restoring FranklinCounty’s Salmon Riv-er to a truly SALMONriver needs dam re-moval. Wait (admit-tedly, possibly even afew years) after theinitial, painstaking,artificial re-introduc-tion of fertile roe intoheadwater streams’gravelly beds forrestarting the process.
Let it develop into self-sustenance. That opens to you, thecrowding, occasional jumping of fish, rushing to their child-hood’s waters. It’s a beautiful sight (not to mention free lunch-es rich in their omega-3, heart-preserving, fatty acids)!
Ecology’s need for unobstructed passage of migrating fishtranscends preservation of such stream’s artificially dammedplacidity.
If you want renewed sporting opportunity, let Salmon Riv-er ’s (and its wildlife’s) freshly regained freedom remain!
For opportunity to play water volleyball, how about a pri-vate, isolated, concrete-lined, yard swimming pool with a neton it?

Chamber unveils new workforce recruitment Web site, DVD/CD
PLATTSBURGH — The Plattsburgh-North Country Cham-ber of Commerce has announced the launch of a major newWeb site to assist regional employers in the recruit-ment of personnel and professionals from outsidethe area.
The new site, www.northcountrygoodlife.com,attempts to cover all elements of a possible deci-sion to relocate to the North Country, with ex-tensive information, images and links in such ar-eas as health care, education, recreation, faithand diversity, housing, elder care, services forthe disable, careers and employment, and artsand culture, among others.
“It has been designed to convey the goodlife that we enjoy in its region,” stated cham-ber president Garry F. Douglas,” and itstrongly frames us within a region that in-cludes Montreal, the Adirondacks andneighboring Vermont. It also builds in seg-ments devoted to key economic sectors weforesee doing recruitment for in the future,such as transportation equipment, aerospace,bio/pharma and the green economy. But, at the same time, itis useful for everyone recruiting someone from outside thearea, or taking a look at our area as a possible place to live andwork.”
Larger employers will find it valuable, added Douglas, aswell as “medical practices of all kinds, retailers transferring
new managers in, and schools recruiting teachers.”The chamber of commerce encourages area employers to
reference the new Web site in all of their future recruitmentmaterials an on sections of their own Web sites
visited by prospective employees.The chamber can provide an icon on
for a direct link to the new site.In addition, the chamber also has
a new version of its DVD/CD pack-age that will be sent in response to
queries about the area as a place towork or invest.
“The DVD provides an especiallycompelling look at our region,” stated
Douglas,” and is a valuable additionaltool beyond the content of the Web site.”
The DVD/CD package is availableupon request for chamber member em-
ployers to use in their own recruitmentpackages and activities.
The recruitment tools have been devel-oped by the Plattsburgh-North Country
Chamber of Commerce as part of its Aero-space, Transportation Equipment and Green
Tech Workforce Strategy. A second phase of the project is nowunder way and will develop materials and marketing strate-gies ready for use in response to the future needs of new orexpanding employers.
Guest Viewpoint
The history of ScoutingBy Jim Pritchard
Special to Denton Publications
One hundred and two years ago thissummer, a British war hero namedRobert Baden-Powell took a group
of boys camping. It was to be an experiment,of sorts, bringing together boys of differingsocial and economic backgrounds. He divid-ed the boys into groups called patrols, mixingbackgrounds, and teaching them skills of out-doorsmanship, tracking, survival, and team-work. By the end of the campout, the BoyScouts had begun. Even a 100 years ago,Baden-Powell could see the need for charac-ter building in the youth of his day and heknew boys love the outdoors and adventure.
The Boy Scouts of America celebrates its100th birthday in 2010. In these 100 years, thebasic nature of boys has not changed, al-though the environment in which they livehas changed drastically. Cities have grownlarger, technology has advanced exponential-ly and the family unit has been redefined. De-spite it all, boys remain the same. They loveadventure! They desperately want to belong,be part of a group. They want to be recognizedfor their accomplishments. They thrive onbrotherhood! Boy Scouting and Cub Scoutingprovide all these and more.
Starting in first grade, boys can be part ofthe Cub Scouts where they join a group ofboys their own age and take part in a numberof activities — with the family invited to joinin.
As a boy approaches the age of 11, he canlook forward to joining a Boy Scout Troop.
Here, boys are more involved in the planningand running of their own program. The bestrun troops have only minimal adult “inter-ference.” The boys themselves plan the meet-ings and outings. If a young man is fortunateenough to be elected to the position of SeniorPatrol Leader by his fellow Scouts, he willlearn skills of leadership, organizing, plan-ning and delivering on those plans.
Statistically speaking, most of the boys inthe Boy Scout program do not become doctorsor lawyers. They probably won’t become im-portant scientists or statesman. But, most ofthem will be someone’s dad. Along withmom, these are, undoubtedly, the most im-portant jobs in the world. The Boy Scout andCub Scout programs can be an invaluable partof a young man’s upbringing to prepare himfor that awesome task!
The Boy Scouts have been around for morethan 100 years and we hope it sticks aroundfor 100 more (and then some)! The number ofboys, and the adults who care about them,who have gone through the program is im-mense. The impact this program has had ontheir lives and the lives of those around themcan only be guessed.
Local Cub Scout Packs and Boy ScoutTroops are getting ready for their fall sign-updrives. Watch for hand-outs in the schools. Ifyou don’t see one, you can call the local Scoutoffice at 561-0360. They can put you in touchwith your local group! Enjoy the adventure!
Jim Pritchard is an advocate of Boy Scouts ofAmerica from the village of Dannemora and servesas Assistant Scoutmaster with Troop 58 in Al-tona. He has been a Cub Scout and Boy Scoutleader for 23 years.

ROUSES POINT — The Rouses PointFarmers Market has come to an end, but it’sonly for the season.
The farmers market celebrated the end ofits first season Sept. 3, marking the first timein recent years a market has been held in theNorthern Tier.
Co-organizers PatriciaParker and Geri Favreausaid the market’s first yearin the village was slow tostart, but showed promise.Parker, who has experi-ence running the market’salready well-establishedcounterpart in Plattsburgh— the Plattsburgh Farm-ers and Crafters Market —said it will take time.
“It’s not quite as busy aswe had hoped,” said Park-er, “but we have to re-member it’s hard to estab-lish any market or busi-ness and it’ll probablyhave to take a few years.”
“The first year is always the hardest foranything,” said Favreau. “We’ll take sometime maybe this October and look at what wecan do different next year.”
Vendor Laurie Babbie agreed. Babbie, aresident of the village and owner of Made forYou by Laurie, a handmade craft business,said she feels the market was a welcome ad-dition to what Rouses Point has to offer.
“I think it’s very important to have themarket here,” said Babbie. “And, being thisis my community, I felt that I should be a partof it.”
The market brought Babbie together withother people who have similar interests andexposed her to businesses she said she mightnot otherwise have known about. Babbiesaid the camaraderie among the vendors inthe market also added to why she wanted tocontinue hosting a booth through the seasonand why she’s looking forward to returningnext year.
“The people here are really great,” saidBabbie. “The market would be better if it was
bigger, but you’ve got to give it a chance andas word spreads, it will become bigger andbigger.”
The market has already attracted at leastone vendor from across Lake Champlain.Donna Larose of North Hero, Vt., partici-pated in the market throughout the season,offering handmade jewelry, suncatchers anddreamcatchers through her business, Dcre-ationz. Upon learning the market was being
held in Rouses Point,Larose said she was excit-ed to offer her wares in anew market.
“My thought was Rous-es Point is right here andwill give me a little expo-sure across the lake,” saidLarose. “I’ve really en-joyed it over here.”
Larose admitted hersales had “ups anddowns” depending large-ly on the bouts of in-clement weather the mar-ket saw over the summer.However, she said overall,the market has been “verybeneficial” for her and
that it has helped her develop many newcontacts.
“I think the timing is good and the loca-tion is great,” Larose said as she sat at one ofthe last markets of the season in Rouse Park.“I think in another year it will grow. Peoplewill see more tents and I think that will drawmore. I mean, it was well-publicized; theirsigns have been out all summer long. It’s justgoing to take time.”
Thought the tents have folded up for theseason, the market’s planning committeewill meet and discuss what worked andwhat didn’t this season, in preparation fornext year, said Parker.
“I think next year will be better. I reallydo,” she said. “But, we’ve got a lot of workto do.”
“We have a beautiful village and we wantto show people that,” said Favreau.

The battle between goodand evil and emphasizingthe importance of doingthe right thing isn’tonly some-thing St.Louisstressesas an au-thor and afather.Every day,St. Louisalso standsfor justiceas an offi-cer of theNew YorkState Police;a role he’s held for 20 years.Though he’s never wantedto mix his day job with hiswriting — even going as faras to write his books underthe pen name “T.A.S.” — hesaid he’s always been toldthe two make a nice combi-nation.
“As a trooper, you’re al-ways looking for ways tohelp people and make thatconnection with the commu-nity,” said St. Louis. “It goes
back to when George Chan-dler was the first superin-
tendent of thestate police in1917. He want-ed the state po-lice to connectwith the com-munity, espe-cially kids. Iwasn’t lookingto try to connectmy job to this,but it is a naturalconnection.”
Whether it’shelping othersthrough his rolein the state po-
lice, participating in theSpecial Olympics or readingto children, St. Louis said hewants to be involved withhis community in Queens-bury and in his native NorthCountry, just as Chandlerwould have wanted.
“It digs deep into you,” St.Louis said of giving back tothe community. “It’s almostsomething you can’t de-scribe with words, you de-scribe with tears. It feels
good.”Though Annie’s Lively
Characters is his first pub-lished work, it won’t be hislast. His niece, who hecounts among the critics ofhis work, will see to that.
“She’s already asked me,“When are you coming outwith a sequel,’” St. Louissaid, laughing. “I’m certain-ly open to the possibility.I’ve still got a lot of goodstories to tell.”
Annie’s Lively Charactersis available locally at thebook store Dog Ate MyHomework, 206 Glen St.,Glens Falls, and through St.Louis’ Web site, www.an-nieslivelycharacters.com.

were slower, which Racettespeculates is due to schoolreturning to session.
“We started off reallystrong, but then it seemedeverybody had other thingsto do,” she said.
Racette, who is a wood-working vendor, madeAdirondack chairs, tables,as well as sold vegetablesand eggs. Aside from herbusy time building herwood creations, she alsoworked to better the market.
“[The] children’s tablewas something new that Ibrought so the kids couldcome in and sit down andplay,” Racette explained,“do arts and crafts and whathave you. I think the kidsenjoyed it.”
Bryan Briscoe, assistantmanager and gardener forthe Bucksberry Farm, alsofound the children’s table tobe a great addition.
“I liked the fact that Lisaput out the kid’s table. Ithought it was kind ofunique,” Briscoe said. “Itkept them distracted andkept them occupied and wecan do our business as farm-ers and vendors.”
Briscoe, who relocated tothe area from the state ofWashington, began garden-ing on the farm he owns, andimmediately wanted to sup-port the other local farmsand markets in the area.
“When we moved here,we started out wanting to doseasonal farming,” Briscoeexplained. “I knew if wewere going to be a smallfarm and try to stay smalland struggle and strive to
stay small, and to sell atfarmers markets, I needed tofind an organization to be-long to.”
Briscoe joined the Adiron-dack Farmers Market Coop-erative, which has allowedhim to sell at other marketsand support his fellow farm-ers — something Briscoe be-lieves the communityshould as well.
“It would be nice to seemore community support,although I do see an increaseof community support inthis market since last sea-son,” Briscoe explained. “Ipersonally ... would like tosee more local customerscome here to shop, than goto other markets.”
Racette has found havinga farmers market in Saranachas helped those who do nothave the ability to travel tothe other markets.
“I think it’s good becausewe get a lot of seniors here,”Racette explained. “Theycome up and it’s a lot betterfor them than having to goto Plattsburgh.”
In the future, Racettehopes she can get more ven-dors included with theSaranac Farmers Market.
“I would like to see itgrow next year. I would liketo see more vendors,” shesaid. “I’m going to be work-ing throughout the winter toget more vendors.”

which is kind of an interest-ing factor, with the economybeing the way it is,” saidCassidy. “My thought ispeople are nesting more.They’re not on vacationsand saying, ‘Okay, I havetime for a dog or a cat.’”
Despite the large crowdthat could potentially at-tend the open house basedon the number of invitationssent, Cassidy wants the pub-lic to know they are encour-aged to attend.
“We really do have a largepublic following in terms of
community support that it’san opportunity to see wheretheir money ... is going andhow it’s working to raise theanimals,” explained Cas-sidy.
“Actually over the pasttwo years, we’ve done a lotof renovations, so if theyhaven’t been here in awhileit might be nice to see theimprovements,” added Cas-sidy.

ROUSES POINT — Thesmooth, melodious tone ofLaura Capito’s voice is onebeing heard more and morethroughout the NorthernTier and is often mistaken forthe voice of a much older,more experienced vocalist.However, she’s only 16 yearsold.
Capito’s love for singing,which she said has alwaysbeen encouraged by her par-ents, David and Elizabeth,began at an early age. She re-called singing along toWeeSing musical instructiontapes as a young child,knowing even then howmuch she loved music.
“Quite honestly, I don’t re-member a time when I havenot loved music,” said theyoung artist.
That love has evolved overthe years, influenced bymany musicians along theway — some of whom thoseher age wouldn’t necessarilyknow. Jazz greats Billie Holi-day, Ella Fitzgerald and NatKing Cole and contemporary artists like Celine Dion andRenée Fleming — even Ludwig von Beethoven — are amongthose she credits for helping her develop her own musicalstyle.
“I really enjoy the more mellow stuff,” said Capito. “Iadore Mr. Ludwig’s work not because he’s the most famous... I love the way he conveyssuch emotion through hisworks. You can almost see astory being painted as hissongs are played.”
Though she’s had formallessons from voice coachesand music teachers, Capitoadmits it’s taken her sometime to get to the point whereshe can today sit down withher guitar and belt out songsthat many adults, let aloneteenagers, wouldn’t dare at-tempt.
Most recently, she per-formed at the Rouses PointFarmers Market, captivating marketgoers and vendors alike.
“Doesn’t she just have an amazing voice,” asked marketcoordinator Geri Favreau as she listened to Capito performduring one of the last markets of the season.
It’s taken a lot of practice and determination over theyears, said Capito, but through her dedication she’s foundherself able to perform not only at the farmers market, butoccasionally at coffee shops and weekly at St. Mary’sChurch. During the school year, she even performs in theNortheastern Clinton Central School’s show choir, “Kaliedo-saic,” and the drama club with which she played the role ofMabel last year in the school’s production of “The Pirates ofPenzance.”
“I love to perform every opportunity I can,” said Capito.“I adore performing, and am open to any opportunity that Iam given to do so.”
And, as Capito continues to perform, she said she’s get-ting more and more requests for copies of her music.
“Many times, during performances, I’ve been asked if Ihad any CDs for sale,” she said. “I record some stuff, but Iuse a $10 Olympia recorder. I’ve got a few original songswritten. Perhaps, I’ll combine them with some covers and
make one.”Capito said she would like to in-
vest in some more equipment toproduce a CD “hopefully in thevery near future.”
Though only entering her soph-omore year this fall, Capito alreadyhas her sights set on pursuing a ca-reer in music after high school.Having already participated in thesummer music program at theCrane School of Music at the StateUniversity of New York at Potsdamfor the past two years, Capito saidshe could see herself there. How-ever, her dream is to travel abroad,experiencing different cultures andstyles of music.
“Of course, that’s expensive,” she admitted.For now, Capito said she is perfectly content performing
in the North Country when asked or when she finds whatshe considers to be a good opportunity to showcase her abil-ities.
The next chance to see Capito perform will be during FortMontgomery Days Heritage Weekend, this Saturday, Sept.12, from 3-4 p.m. and Sunday, Sept. 13, from 9-10 a.m.
If you’re looking for an autograph, Capito will be morethan happy to oblige. But, if you’re looking for an artist withan ego, you’ll have to look elsewhere.
“I believe that anyone can do what I do. It’s not that bigof a deal. If you really love it, you’ll just do it,” said Capito.“Where there’s love and inspiration, I really don’t know howyou could go wrong.”
Laura Capito performs during one of the last markets of the season at the Rouses Point Farmers Mar-ket. The market is one of several venues Capito has begun to perform at, sharing her love of musicwith others.

Construction industry seminar to be offered
Moose, the largestanimal species inthe park were ex-
tirpated for over a century,yet they have always beenconsidered an iconic, ‘land-scape species.’
Since the 1970s, moosehave been entering NewYork state on a continuousbasis. The New York's moosepopulation is now firmly es-tablished and large enoughto be considered secure.
Moose have become socommon that the NYSDEC no longer solicitsnor collects reported sightings. Officials ex-plain that the continued collection of thisdata will no longer contribute in a substan-tial or cost-effective way.
“People don’t even bother to call them inanymore,” explained Ken Kogut a wildlifebiologist with DEC Region 6. “I guess thenovelty has worn off.”
Currently, DEC biologists estimate thatthere are more than 500 moose in the parkand that the population is increasing atabout the same rate as Vermont's, about 10-15 percent per year.
“We believe that moose have becomereestablished to a point where a thresholdhas been reached to enable a breeding pop-ulation to exist,” explained Ed Reid, a DECWildlife Biologist with Region 5.
The SeasonsSince the 1990’s, park residents have be-
come increasingly aware of the presence of
moose in the park. They’vefound moose scat and tracks,or watched them in the wateror along the highways.
Moose scat, which resem-bles an oversized gum dropin shape, can be found inponds and lakes stretchingfrom the West Canada Lakesto the St. Regis Area to theFive Ponds Wilderness. Thedroppings can usually befound along the pond’s bot-tom in four to six feet of wa-ter where moose commonlyfeast on water plants such as
lillypads, arrowheads, cattails or similar tu-bers.
The droppings are easily recognizable dueto their size, quantity and light, tan colorwhich stands out against a pond’s muckybottom. Last year, over the final weekend ofthe trout season, I discovered moose drop-pings in nine out of the 12 waters I visited.
Obviously, others are seeing moose aswell, a point illustrated by the nearly twodozen state road signs posted across thepark.
In places such as Newcomb, Indian Lake,Bloomingdale or Inlet, the sight of a mooseis no longer considered an unusual occur-rence.
The AnimalMoose are primarily active during the
morning and evening hours, but they oftenswitch to a nocturnal life during the sum-mer, when insect harassment is at its peak.
Sightings increase as the rut begins in thelate summer and continues through the ear-ly fall.
During the rutting season, a bull moosecovers upwards of 70 miles in a day search-ing for a mate. Moose travel at about 9 mph,but they can double that speed in a gallopfor a short distance. They are also extreme-ly proficient swim-mers and have beenknown to cross LakeChamplain.
The rut begins inAugust as bulls be-gin shedding antlervelvet. The bellowto produce soundssimilar to groans.Similar to whitetaildeer rubs, moosealso break branches,strip bark, or tanglewith bushes.
The bell, a hairyskin flap under thejaw, is their scent distribution organ. It issplashed with urine when bulls dig ruttingpits. It serves to attract females, which aregreatly attracted to bull moose scent.
From August to mid October, during rut,females come to heat every 18–21 days.Moose reach sexual maturity at one and ahalf years, bulls mate from an age of two anda half years.
After one to two days together, a matingpair parts and the bull begins searching foranother female.
Observe with a wary eyeMoose are unique and exciting animals to
observe. They can frequently be found inwetland areas with streams or lakes withnearby poplar, maple or coniferous forests.
While moose have been observedthroughout the day, the peak hours of dawnor dusk are usually best for viewing wildlife.While moose are fairly tolerant of humans,all wildlife should be viewed and pho-tographed from a safe distance.
People should exercise caution whenaround these large and powerful animals.Efforts must be ensured that observation isdone carefully. Make no mistake, moose are
dangerous animals. Weighing up to 1,500pounds, standing 6-1/2 feet at the shoulder,with long legs, sharp hooves and impressiveantlers; moose will attack a human.
The most dangerous time of the year tomeet up with a cow moose is in the springand early summer when they may haveyoung calves. Use common sense and never
walk between amoose and its calf.
When traveling inmoose country, dogsshould be left home.Moose have an in-stinctive fear of ca-nines and even aleashed dog may agi-tate a moose and pro-voke a charge or anattack.
Males act aggres-sively, especially dur-ing the fall breedingseason when theymay perceive you as a
threat or potential competitor. Bull moosehave been known to tangle with a train lo-comotive, so a human being presents verylittle danger.
Signs of moose aggression include the an-imal walking toward you, laying back itsears, stomping the ground, licking its nose,swinging its head from side to side while thehair on the back of its neck is standing onend.
If a moose is acting aggressive, abnormal-ly or seems disturbed by your presence, backaway slowly and leave the area.
If charged, run and try to get a tree, vehi-cle or other large object between you and themoose. Should you encounter a moose besure to back off a bit and give it plenty ofroom. Always back away slowly and calmly.
Remember, dangerous wildlife encoun-ters are nearly always caused by a foolishdecision on the part of humans. Use yourhead, rather than your feet, to avoid a con-frontation.

As the story goes,a young girlnamed Hattie
stood sobbing outside thedoors of a Philadelphiachurch school more than acentury ago, having beenturned away due to a lackof space. Upon noticingthe child, the church’spastor approached andasked what the problemwas.
“They cannot let meinto Sunday School,” Hat-tie said. “There is noroom.”
“I will take you in,” the kind pastor saidand ushered her into the school, telling herthat someday the church will be largeenough “for all that should come.”
Unfortunately, just a few short weeks lat-er, the young girl contracted diphtheria anddied. At the funeral, Hattie’s father ap-proached the pastor and told him his daugh-ter had begun saving for a building-fund,running errands for pennies she saved in alittle bank.
“She would want you to havethis,” he said, and with an out-stretched hand gave 57 cents tothe pastor.
The pastor later approachedhis deacons with the 57 cents.While the group had no shortterm plan of a new building, thestory inspired them and the 57cents became the first gift towarda fundraising campaign for anew, larger church.
When a suitable building par-cel was identified, the pastor ap-proached the owner with the little girl’s sto-ry.
“I talked the matter over with the ownerof the property, and told him of the begin-ning of the fund, and the story of the littlegirl,” the pastor said.
While the man was not of the church, oreven a church goer for that matter, he was sodeeply moved by the story that he agreed totake the 57 cents donated by the little girl asthe first down payment. A benefactor later
paid off the entire amount, leav-ing the church with no mort-gage.
Thus was the humble begin-nings of the 3,300 seat TempleBaptist Church on Broad Streetin Philadelphia. A true story,told by the kind pastor, RussellH. Conwell, in his book “Aces ofDiamonds” published in 1890.
To this day, Hattie MaeWiatt’s picture can be foundalongside one of Pastor Con-well, on the wall of the chil-dren’s Sunday school room inthe church, a room large enough
“for all that should come.”I was reminded of this story of a simple act
of kindness this week after reading a letterto the editor submitted by Rebecca Ives ofCrown Point.
Rebecca told a story of a woman who ap-proached her van at the post office andpressed a $50 bill in her hand, saying only“Here is a little something for you to takeyour kids somewhere nice and cool today. Ithink God wanted me to bless you today.”
Rebecca wantedthe unidentifiedwoman to knowthat she and herthree children didin fact take her upon the offer, andsaid she wasmoved by thewoman’s unso-licited act of kind-ness.
“If only every-one could try anddo this at least
once a year,” Rebecca wrote, saying theworld would be a better place.
I couldn’t agree more Rebecca, and I sharethe above story about Hattie Mae Wiatt toshow just how one seemingly insignificantact of kindness can take on a life of its own— even when another is taken from us.
