Adrian Carr’s retrospective art showPLATTSBURGH Ñ On Saturday, April 20, Adrian Carr put his
life on display at ROTA Gallery.His show, Ò The Hidden Art of Adrian CarrÑ A Retrospective
1976-2005,Ó includes about 20 pieces and is open through Mon-day, May 6.
It all starts with Carr’s fi rst oil painting, “Farmhouse,” com-pleted in 1976.
It’s of his grandmother’s farm in Wilson, a town in western New York.
Carr admitted that the hills in the brightly colored painting are a bit exaggerated, but said that is how he saw them.
It is in this way that Carr Õ s surroundings affect his work.In 1977, Carr painted a blizzard in Buffalo. The colors arenÕ t
as bold as they are in “Farmhouse”—instead, its whites are splashed over grays in a lively, twisting fury.
And then Carr moved to New York City, and his paintings changed again.
It was there that his Ò Subway SeriesÓ was born.
Volunteers spruce up
PlattsburghBy Shaun [email protected]
PLATTSBURGH Ñ As the snow receded in downtown Plattsburgh, places like Trin-ity Park became marred by the presence of litter and leaves blowing around like urban tumbleweed.
Yes, spring is here, and the Clinton County Advocacy and Resource Center teamed up with Plattsburgh StateÕ s new-est fraternity, Pi Kappa Phi, to do some spring cleaning on Saturday, April 20.
The Earth-Day inspired Green-up Day was the fi rst of its kind for the two organiza-tions.
It was also a chance for the ARC, which serves individu-als with developmental dis-abilities throughout the region, and the Eta Kappa chapter of Pi Kappa Phi, which was in-stalled at Plattsburgh State in November 2012,

PLATTSBURGH Ñ A Plattsburgh Sister is being honored for reaching across the hemisphere to bring hope to people in Nica-ragua and give people in the North Country an opportunity to change lives.
Sister Debbie Blow, a co-founder of the North Country Mission of Hope, will be recognized in Albany early next month as a New York State Senate Woman of Distinction.
Blow has been nominated by Sen. Betty Little for the recognition because of her leadership in organizing a sustained humanitarian mission to Nicaragua that, since 1998, has provided healthcare to more than 60,000 people, educated hundreds of students, con-structed more than 500 homes, as well as classrooms, a library and community development center, and fed thousands of malnour-ished children through the Children Feeding Children Program.
“Plans for the North Country Mission of Hope’s 50th mission trip are under way, so this is certainly a fitting time to recognize Sister Debbie for her extraordinary work,Ó Little said in a press release. “Tens of thousands of lives have been transformed for the better due to her vision and dedication and the more than 1,300 volunteers who have made numerous trips to Nicaragua. This mission not only has provided Nicaraguans living in poverty criti-cally important tangibles like housing, healthcare and food, but a sense of hope, a remarkable gift.”
Blow, a Dominican Sister of Hope, was a 1971 graduate of Northern Adirondack Central School, and later studied religious and scriptural/theological studies at Providence College, she also attended Trinity College, St. Michael’s College, and Notre Dame College.
Blow co-founded the mission in response to Hurricane Mitch, which killed more than 22,000 people in Central America in 1998.
Blow said her journey to Nicaragua began 13 years before her organization’s conception when she was introduced to the Flores family after they escaped from social unrest and hostility in Ni-caragua.
“They arrived here in Plattsburgh because during the 80’s, this location was a receiving area/stop off point for refugees from around the world,” said Blow. “They sought refuge here, someone locally told them to approach me to see if I could help their chil-dren and when they did, I said yes of course.
“What I told the mother was ‘We have no money either, but let us help you now and later, you can give back and help others.Õ Ó
Blow helped provide the family with a small apartment that was donated by a local landlord, all furniture and beds, food for sev-eral weeks, clothing for the entire family, contacts for employment, and education for their two children.
Blow and the Flores family were drawn back to Nicaragua when Hurricane Mitch devastated the country.
“It was now a joint effort of Yamilette Flores, Eve McGill and me to ‘give back’ and help others in need, especially in the wake of the single longest sustained category 5 hurricane on record as of 1998,” said Blow.
That year, 52 volunteers including healthcare, construction workers, educators, other professionals, and youths traveled to Nicaragua. When they got there, Blow said the devastation was unimaginable.
“Three months after the hurricane there were orphanages and homes still under water, and thousands of people living under trees Ñ thousands,Ó said Blow.
The Mission of Hope will be going on its 50th mission, Blow said she has gone on all of them with the exception of one or two trips.
“Some people ask if it would not just be better to send the money and not the people. To that I want to say first of all our volunteers pay their own way, all of the money donated to us goes right to the efforts, and secondly if you keep sending money nothing would happen at home, we needed to change the attitudes of people here and help them see they can make a difference,” said Blow.
Blow said the people who have gone to Nicaragua with her have kept what they do real at home and that enthusiasm and experi-ence is what has kept the program strong.
“On one of our first missions we went into one of the hospitals a few days after we promised to come back and paint a wall,” said Blow. “When we got there the hospital director started crying and I asked her why she was crying, she said that a lot of people had come there, made themselves feel better and never came back, but we came back.”
Since the first trip to Nicaragua, Blow said the people who they met in the beginning are finding hope.
“We have more than a dozen people employed with North Country Mission of Hope in Nicaragua,Ó said Blow.
Ò But there are still hungry people and people in need of help, but we have a choice, we can either look at a challenge as some-thing we can’t fix or see it as an opportunity to help those we can.”
The New York State Senate Women of Distinction event will be
held in the Legislative Office Building in Albany on May 7. The annual award honors outstanding women from across New York State for their professional and volunteer work to enrich the lives of others.
Blow said though she is very honored to receive recognition as a woman of distinction, the recognition is not just for her but every-one involved in the organization.
“This gives me an opportunity to thank everyone in the North Country for all of their help and hard work, they are the heart of the mission and I want to thank you,” said Blow.

ELLENBURG Ñ The Gibson Brothers will give a special live performance in support of Ellenburg Senior Housing residents at 7 p.m. on April 26 at the Northern Adirondack Central School, 5586 Route 11.
“This will be a homecoming concert, the band hasn’t played in the area in a while,Ó said president to the board of directors for the Ellenburg Senior Housing (ESH), Roman Miner.
The performance will be one of the first at Northern Adiron-dack’s newly finished auditorium which has been under con-struction for the last few years.
The Gibson Brothers are a fun and talented bluegrass group that took home the 2012 Entertainer of the Year Award at the 23rd annual International Bluegrass Music Awards at NashvilleÕ s Ry-man Auditorium. The same night the band won the “Gospel Recorded Performance of the Year” award for “Singing As We
Rise.” The group will be previewing their upcoming 2013 release Ò They Called It Music.Ó
The concert will benefit the two North Country centers oper-ated by Ellenburg Senior Housing.
“We do a fundraiser usually every year to help support the centers,Ó Miner said.
The fundraisers have supported the centers’ annual Christmas party, Wii machines for each facility and other things to improve the quality of life for residents.
“The Wii’s are a great addition for our seniors to use to stay active and have some fun and the Christmas parties are nice for everyone to enjoy,” said Miner. “The money we raise is just to get a little something more for the people there that isn’t in the facilityÕ s budget.Ó
Tickets to the event are $18 for advance tickets or $20 at the door. Tickets can be purchased at DickÕ s Country Store, 7429 U.S. 11 Churubusco; LeBarre’s Store, 5581 State Route 11, Ellenburg Center; Adirondack Penny Saver in Plattsburgh or by calling Miner at 293-7292.

Burgh Editorial
In 1990, Colorado held a statewide refer-endum to legalize limited stakes gam-bling in three struggling mining towns
that were on the verge of ceasing to exist.The towns of Black Hawk, Central City and
Cripple Creek played a huge role in the boom-town gold rush of the mid-1800s, but when the gold ran dry these once bustling communities became ghost towns.
Faced with a dwindling population, deterio-rating infrastructure and disintegrating archi-tecture, officials in the towns banded together to lobby for gaming in their commercial districts, and the idea was put before Colorado voters.
The measure passed overwhelmingly, and investors began renovating historic structures for use as casinos. Beginning with opening day on October 1, 1991, gaming proved spectacu-larly successful in attracting new investment in amounts unheard of since the gold boom more than a century before.
Today, the same argument of dwindling population and deteriorating infrastructure could be made for many Adirondack towns. Data released in 2009 by the Adirondack Park Regional Assessment Project (APRAP) clearly demonstrate that.
Student enrollment in our schools is evapo-rating, leading to fewer opportunities for our kids and our year-round population is aging. Dilapidated empty storefronts line our Main Streets.
Towns like Newcomb, Port Henry and Tupper Lake that once thrived from logging and mining now seem to be headed the way of Black Hawk, Central City and Cripple Creek.
Casino gambling would without a doubt stop that trend, just as it did in Colorado, and would be a badly needed source of revenue for the state, hopefully leading to less reliance on things like the local property tax.
In Colorado, gaming pumps more than $100 million into the state’s economy each year. That money is used for everything from roads and transportation to infrastructure improvements to tourism promotion to historic preservation.
Colorado’s gaming industry also provides more than 27,000 direct and indirect jobs to its citizens and offers above-average wages Ñ
something as scarce in the Adirondacks as a 4-year-old car without rust.
In addition, casino employees in Colorado receive competitive fringe benefits like tuition reimbursement, transportation and meals, re-tirement and pension plans, health and life insurance, and exceptional promotional oppor-tunities.
In other words, the very benefits our college graduates are leaving the area in search of.
Certainly the argument can be made that ca-sinos would forever alter the quality of life that makes the Adirondacks the special place it is.
But through progressive planning Ñ like forcing casinos into commercial districts, limit-ing stakes and establishing set closing times — casino gambling could be as good a fit here as it proved to be in Black Hawk, Central City and Cripple Creek.
The casino building proposal in New York is expected to come to a head later this year when Gov. Andrew Cuomo divulges up to seven po-tential casino locations.
The state legislature has already passed a constitutional amendment approving the new casinos. It must be passed again this year and then, like Colorado, must be approved in a statewide voter referendum before becoming law.
Anticipating approval some towns, like Port Henry, North Hudson and Lake George, have already tossed their hats in the ring for consid-eration to become host to one of the new casi-nos.
Potential locations such as Frontier Town, located at Exit 29 of the Northway in North Hudson; Roaring Brook Ranch off Exit 21 of the Northway in Lake George and the former Lowe’s Home Improvement Center in down-town Ticonderoga have emerged.
When it comes down to decision-making time, let’s hope the governor bases his decision on need rather than greed.
If so — and there is no conflict with exist-ing Native American casinos — than no other region of the state would benefit more from a gaming operation than the Adirondacks.
Ñ Denton Editorial Board
The need for gaming in the Adirondacks is large While the events
of last week con-tinue to unfold it
reminds us how fragile life is and how quickly our lives can be turned upside down in the mere blink of eye.
While the nation was fix-ated by the shocking terrorist event in Boston, the good peo-ple in West Texas were literal-ly blown away when a fire at a fertilizer plant caused a mas-sive explosion killing as many as 60 and injuring nearly 200.
When the Cold War ended and the Iron Curtain was torn down, we thought and hoped the world was moving toward a more peaceful existence. Nations could focus more on improving the living conditions for its citi-zens. Ever-developing technological advanc-es would help us realize that with a global economy, war was something the world could do without. We envisioned the spread of democracy and capitalism throughout the world. Other nations were hungry for the lifestyle we enjoyed in the United States.
Unfortunately, the world has not gone in that direction; instead, it has become even more dangerous than before. The events of the last week, the threats coming out of North Korea, the recent ricin letters show-ing up at the capital and the White House, and the rash of gun violence have once again proven the depth of our vulnerability. We are perhaps more despised both by people who feel entitled to our continued financial and military support and by Jihadists/revolu-tionaries who see our freedom as grand op-portunities to humble the nation and break our spirit.
Regardless of the source of the threat, life is fragile. Life-changing events can come in the form of a national tragedy, but they can also occur in a private conversation with your doctor, a slip on the ice or an unintend-ed auto accident. Life, as they say, can sneak up on you when you least expect it. None of us can live our lives in a bubble. We can’t be so fearful that the joy of life is reduced to a whimper.
We can, however, choose to conduct our
lives with a greater focus on the life itself. How we respect ourselves and appreciate the contribution of each other to the world we share.
We can never eliminate threats, but we can recognize ways to make the most of the time we spend on this Earth and the way we embrace those around us.
Anyone who has faced a major crisis or lost a loved one unexpectedly knows you canÕ t get back the time you may
have foolishly let slip away. The lesson we must take away from these events is simple; be on guard, but never fail to appreciate ev-ery day you and your loved ones have to-gether.
This world Ñ while full of wonder, beauty and exciting times — is also fraught with danger. Danger lurks in every corner, and no one is immune but it is balanced by the gifts each of us is given. Seriously injured Boston marathoners who may have loved running, and realize they may have lost a limb, are nonetheless grateful just to be alive. First responders in Texas who may have lost a fellow responder in the tragedy, will, along with other brave responders in the near fu-ture, charge into another life-threatening event knowing whatÕ s at risk in an effort to save lives. They do so out of love for their fellow man.
That love and commitment to each other is always showcased during trying times like these. We must all remember how we feel during these events and do our best to keep that feeling ever present as we go about our daily lives and not just when we are person-ally affected.
The journey of life is an ever-learning and evolving experience as we cope with joy, tragedy, defeat and success. In the end, how we choose to deal with and accept these life-altering events is what provides the promise for tomorrow and future generations.

Misconception over Safe ActTo the Burgh:I would like to thank Mr. Sam Huntington from Dresden for
his letter questioning a statement I made in my March 30 let-ter to Denton Publications. “As chief law enforcement officers (C.L.E.O), I believe sheriffs have the constitutional authority to stop all enforcement of the Safe Act and like regulations within their respective counties where constitutional issues are in ques-tion.” When they take their oath of office, it is not just a formal-ity, it is a constitutional requirement. ART VI, sec. 3, “All elected representatives and all officers and administrators of both the US and the individual states shall take an oath or affirmation that the shall support this constitution.Ó Sheriffs, as constitutional of-ficers, must protect our constitutional rights.
From the National Center for Constitutional Studies, Wash-ington, D.C., Ò The Citizens Rule Book,Ó and the Ò Making of America,” I quote: “The general misconception is that any stat-ute passed by legislatures bearing the appearance of the law con-stitutes the law of the land. The U.S. Constitution is the supreme law of the land, and any statute, to be valid, must be in agree-ment. It is impossible for a law which violates the constitution to be valid. This is succinctly stated as follows:
1. Ò All laws which are repugnant to the constitution are null and void.” (Marbury US Madison, 5 US [2 Cranch], 137,174,176 [1803]) 2. “Where rights secured by the constitution are involved, there can be no rule making or legislation which would abrogate them.” (Miranda vs. Arizona, 384 US 436, p. 491) 3. “An uncon-stitutional act is not law; it confers no rights; it imposes no du-ties; affords no protections; it creates no office; it is in legal con-templation, as inoperative as though it had never been passed.” (Norton vs. Shelby Co. 118 US 425, p. 442) 4. “The general rule is that an unconstitutional statute, though having the form and name of law, is in reality no law, but is wholly void, and inef-fective for any purpose; since unconstitutionality dates from the time of its enactment, and not merely from the date of the deci-sion so branding itÓ (Citizens Rule Book). Ò No one is bound to obey an unconstitutional law and no courts are bound to enforce it” (Vol. 16 American Jurisprudence, 2nd ed., p. 177, late 2nd ed., p. 256). 5. William Pitt, a British Statesman said, “Necessity is the plea for every infringement of liberty; it is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves.Ó Those in power today plead “Necessity” when they say: “Don’t let a good crisis go to waste” (e.g., the horrible Sandy Hook incident is their Ò NecessityÓ ). 6. Archibald Maclaine, a ratifier of the US Constitution from North Carolina, in showing original intent, said, “No officer will be bound by his oath to support any act that would violate the prin-ciples of the Constitution.Ó
The constitution was written simply and clearly so that even those with limited education could understand it. It seems clear to me that the constitution requires an affirmation of support
by not only sheriffs but all law enforcement officers and state and local officials including prosecuting attorneys. A law that obviously infringes (interferes, violates, encroaches, exceeds, in-trudes, cancels, restricts, conflicts, dilutes, etc.) on one’s rights should be vigorously opposed.
More food for thought: A Colorado undersheriff recently asked a class of Colorado state troopers if they would have any objec-tions to going into homes and confiscating firearms. Why would this question even be asked if it wasnÕ t their intent to do so?
May God bless and keep us all safe.

Two wrongs don’t make a rightTo the Burgh: This is to inform you that it seems offensive and contradic-
tory regarding your article on Ò Rock Against RapeÓ in the April 6 issue.
This article promotes Planned Parenthood for its activity against rape. These same people who claim objection to rape, would at the same time, be helpful to murder the product of rape.
We all know the adage; “Two wrongs don’t make a right.”

Cigarette butts most litter USTo the Burgh:Most people probably know about the health concerns relat-
ed to smoking, but they may not know that cigarette butts are the most littered item in the nation, and they’re more than just an eye sore. This toxic litter is mostly made of plastic and does NOT biodegrade when thrown on the ground, putting wildlife in danger and wreaking havoc on U.S. waterways, parks, beaches and roadways. Additionally, cigarette butts contain toxic chemi-cals that can leach into soil, and chemicals that are poisonous to wildlife and could contaminate water sources. They can be very costly to local communities in terms of clean up and disposal.
On Earth Day, April 22nd, more than a billion people in 180 countries around the world will commit to making the world a better place through environmental protection. In light of Earth Day, the Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics, and the coun-try’s largest nonprofit organization dedicated to tobacco control, The Legacy Foundation, have joined forces on the website www.rethinkbutts.org to raise awareness about the effects of cigarette butt litter on the environment.
Earth Day is a day to celebrate the planet and for everyone to make a commitment to do their best to protect it. Whether it’s through recycling, planting a tree, driving less, or making sure that cigarette butts end up extinguished and in the trash and not in the places we live, work, and play. Consider making a commit-ment to the planet this Earth Day, I know I will.

Two gems in downtown Plattsburgh are Cache Elegant and owner, Barbara Hugus. A cache is a hidden stor-age of treasures, and that is what Barbara has - a world
of well-designed beauty. Barbara describes her shop, Cache` El-egant, as “a boutique of Apparel, Accessories, Gifts and Home Decor at consignment prices.”
The first element of believing that the shop will transform you is the artistry displayed and changed weekly in the windows. Barbara combines clothes, home décor and art into a beautiful tapestry of color. Barbara has resurrected the lost art of window shopping!
One of her customers describes the shop as, “Sophisticated with color and balance, Cache Elegant is for people with taste, whether it’s modern, country, or vintage - it appeals to the so-phisticated consumer; whatever period they admire.” To us at style & substance, sophisticated is not snobby or intimidating; rather, sophisticated simply means attention to beauty and ad-miring the small details that makes something spectacular.
We regularly stop into Cache Elegant, and are always bril-liantly overwhelmed by Barbara’s style throughout the shop. We would add, “hip, classic, eclectic, shabby chic, something for everyone”. It is an experience in color, arrangement and beauty. Barbara’s knowledge, enthusiasm and friendly approachability make the shopping experience a series of “ooohs” and “aaah-
hhs”. Her “cache” is arranged to inspire her customers into redecorating, restyling, starting a project or finding their “con-versation piece”. Some real hits we saw this past week were a small counter top butcher block which is perfect for the appetizer portion of your entertaining and a ‘to die for’ wrought iron and glass coffee tableÉ with prices that are steals. And this spring, making your outdoor space inviting and attractive is easy with Cache Elegant!
The clothing is carefully hand chosen from Barbara’s con-signers, and each piece would be considered a Ò one of a kindÓ , boutique-type buy. The sophisticated shopper knows style is not about price, it is about confidence and individuality, and dress-ing like this everyday is important! Shop for all that is hip, ele-gant, and sophisticated, right in downtown Plattsburgh. Barbara invites customers to “browse and get to know my merchandise at your own pace.” After-hours personal shopping appointments or at home visits are available by request – New York City ser-vices right here in our beautiful downtown!
Becoming a consignment customer is a perfect way to update other’s homes and wardrobes, while you do it for yourself, as well. Bring in your lightly used home goods, clothes and jewelry and set up an account.
Cache Elegant provides an approachable retail atmosphere with exceptional customer service – it is a shopping opportunity
to make yourself beautiful and at the same time adding beauty and style to your home.

Most rivers and streams are still running high, with water temperatures about av-erage for the season. Most of the ponds
will have shed their ice cover by the weekend but wa-ter temperatures will only be in the mid 30’s. As water temperatures increase, fi sh should become more active.
The smaller, shallower ponds will be producing fi rst, although water temperatures will need to warm up some before the deeper ponds and lakes turn on.
Lake trout and salmon will be the fi rst fi sh to be active, while brook trout will take a bit longer. However, it will only take a change of a few degrees in water temperatures to turn them on.
The annual smelt run appears to be on track following the Full Moon, which is set to occur on Friday, April 25.
Following the full moon, trout and salmon will begin feeding actively in and around the inlets and tributaries of the lakes and ponds for the next week or so.
Stocking trucks have not yet delivered many trout to area’s streams and rivers, and in the smaller streams and mountain brooks, native brook trout are still in their win-ter mode.
Trout will be slow to react to offerings, and likely shel-tered among the rocks and under the overhanging trees.
On the rivers, anglers will fi nd the best action in the deeper pools or at the base of falls or dams, where air tem-peratures will have a greater effect on water temperatures.
Think like a fi sh, and look around, be observant and see what’s going on. Are there fl ies in the air, or schools of minnows in the shallows? On the streams, seek out areas that provide both food and shelter, and you’ll fi nd the fi sh.
As a result of the fl oods, many local rivers and streams are still chocked with large accumulations of debris and logjams. These are excellent holding areas for trout, but be careful of your footing.
Go where the people aren’t! Large fi sh are easily spooked, so try to maintain a low profi le to avoid spook-ing the fi sh. Watch your shadows, and be careful of dis-turbing rocks or downed trees in or near the water. Fish will pick up on the vibrations and spook easily.
If you do spook them, rest the pool and try again in about 20 minutes, fi sh have short memories. On the ponds, avoid banging or bouncing around in the boat/canoe, minimize oar splash and be sure to wear your PFD; itÕ s now the law.
Always cast to a pool from further away then you think is necessary, and try to be accurate. There is nothing more frustrating than getting hung up on the fi rst cast and ruining a potentially pro-ductive area.
When retrieving a fl y or lure, vary the retrieve and change the speed and depth. Twitch the offering, to give it an erratic motion. If it isn’t working, change lures. Experiment, and fi gure out a way to trig-ger their strike response.
Most of all, take your time, relax and have some fun, fi shing is not supposed to be a chore. It is not intended to be a con-test between anyone but the angler and the fi sh. And be sure to take a friend, or a kid along with you. Angling adventures are more enjoyable if they are shared, and the stories are more likely to be be-lievable.
Go take a hike, just for the health of it
A recent study conducted at the Uni-versity of Pittsburgh concludes that walking isnÕ t just good for your waist-line, it actually has benefi ts that can help your memory, as well. Researchers fol-lowed nearly 300 participants for over a decade and concluded that walking six to nine miles a week may actually stop your brain from shrinking as you age.
According to the studyÕ s author Kirk
Erickson, “Exercise increases the amount of blood going to the brain,” which means, “that more of the important nutrients necessary for the brain to function are distrib-uted.Ó
Researchers discovered the more often participants walked, the more memory they retained, and those who most had about half as much risk of suffering memory problems as those who walked the least.
Humans can expect to lose memory as they age. It is a normal function of aging. However, research has deter-mined that increased exercise also helps improve the por-tions of the brain that support memory function.
According to the researchers, the earlier you begin ex-ercising, the better. Ò But itÕ s never too late!Ó according to researchers, “any amount of exercise you do will help.”
It is interesting to note that the loss of short term mem-ory has also been linked to stress and fatigue.
It has been well established that time spent in nature, or even viewing natural scenes has a soothing and therapeu-tic affect on human.
Our senses are exercised and enlivened in natural set-tings, where we can feel the breeze, smell the air and hear the wind and the water.
The infl uences of fl owing waters, air quality, mountains and other landscape features of our region contain a set-ting that is particularly restorative. Not only has it proven to be physically benefi cial, it has also contributed to the spirit of our visitors.
The region has long been recognized for its ability to help recharge the human battery, reduce fatigue and pro-vide a greater mental clarity and physical vigor.
Often, it takes only a simple walk in the woods to boost circulation and clear your senses.
The fact that we are more alive and at ease in nature should come as no surprise, afterall human beings have spent 99 percent of their evolutionary time as hunter, gathers. As a nomadic society, we were indelibly linked to the land. It should come as no surprise that when we return to it, we are more natural and at ease. It is afterall, a key component of our heredity.

The Trout Where-Abouts Girls on grassThe cold weather has kept the
stream temperatures down so my trout fi shing hasn’t been
very good. Not one to waste any time though, I’m trying to cut and split some fi rewood to get ahead of the curve. Working out by my pasture, I get to see the slow changes in the green up of the vegetation. I see the brown dor-mant grasses slowly turning green, and young clover plants coming to life. As a grazing specialist, this gets me psyched up! I see the leaves of the grass plant reaching out and grabbing all that sun-light; photosynthesis underway.
For grazing farmers who raise beef and dairy cows, itÕ s a good sign. Soon grazing season will be here and the cows will be going out to pasture! The cows are happy. They get out of the barn and out on green grass. The farmer is even happier. The animals get to go outside, barn chores are reduced, manure is getting spread by the cows instead of the spreader and feed is not being hauled into the barn; freedom of a sort. Now it’s time for fi eld chores!
Over the last 25 years grazing management has taken hold in this area. Numerous dairy and beef operations have discovered rotational grazing management as a way to raise their animals. Rotational grazing is not just opening the barn door and letting the cows run rampant on a large pas-ture fi eld and selecting what they want and leaving the rest. Rotational grazing is an organized system where animals are moved to a new small pasture, called a paddock on a daily basis.
Grasses are grazed when they reach a height of about 8 inches and grazed down to about 4 inches in height. The 4 inches that are fed are of a high quality, and the re-maining 4 inches of leaf, are long enough to allow the solar collecting leaves to capture the sunÕ s ener-gy and turn it into chemi-cal energy. This allows the plant to grow and thrive, in addition to storing energy in the roots. If the plant is grazed too low, the leaf is very small, and photosynthesis takes much longer. The growing point for the plant must start from the base of the plant and energy is taken from the roots robbing the plant of energy and increasing the time it takes to get the leaf growth back to 8 inches. The species of grasses growing in the pasture can actually be manipulated by grazing management. When you graze close to the ground, tight like horses do, this leads to more blue-grass, and less pasture tonnage production per acre. If you allow more time between grazing cycles and maintain a proper grazing height of 4 inches or more, you can have clover and orchard grass, and other species, which fa-vor a longer rest period. With intensive management, overall pasture ton-nage is increased meaning less pasture acres are needed. This means there could be more acreage available for other crops, like hay, annual crops such as corn or even grains. I would recommend having additional hay acres available. The fi nicky way the weather is acting now days, you may need the additional hay acres for grazing when things get dry, or to feed out to supplement the dry pasture times. Worst case would be that you have ad-ditional hay acres and that has never been a problem for a farmer. Having surplus hay for sale is always good!
By moving dairy cows daily, the bovines get fresh actively growing grass and clovers in their diet. The high protein feed from pasture along with hay and grain fed in the barn makes a balanced ration that helps keep milk production costs down. Beef operations depending on the level of manage-ment intensity, may move the cows every day or up to every 2 or 3 days. The overall goal of rotational grazing management is to get quality feed to help the young growing animals gain about 2 lbs. per day if the pasture is managed properly.
Quality feed gets quality animals, and animal products such as milk and meat.
Other benefi ts to the farmer include:• Nutrient rich manure is spread directly on actively growing grass by
the best possible means; direct deposit! This reduces labor costs. • Fuel costs associated with manure spreading and barn cleaning are
reduced.• Electricity costs associated with barn and gutter cleaning are lessened.In many cases milk production increases depending on the quality of
stored feed. In other cases milk production may drop, but overall profi t-ability increases, depending on management.
For the average Joe or Jane trying to make a living, there are numer-ous benefi ts. Some of these include reduced nutrient runoff and less soil erosion. The soil is protected by a permanent sod cover, and the stream banks get fenced out protecting aquatic areas. Wildlife habitat is also cre-ated and/or improved.
Overall soil quality improves and carbon is stored due to the increasing organic matter buildup in the soils. The infi ltration rate of the soil, due to improved soil structure is increased. So during a rainstorm there tends to be less runoff and more infi ltration and water storage in the organic matter.
The consumer benefi ts too! Grazing beef farms along with Community Supported Agriculture enterprises (CSAÕ s) are increasing in our area. This means the consumer has a choice of purchasing grass-fed beef and locally grown vegetables, fruits, jams, and other farm fresh, locally grown prod-ucts. All of these products are available to you from a farm stand owned by a family farm in our community.
As citizens and consumers, we should be encouraging our schools to buy local agricultural products so our kids get quality, locally grown foods. We need to teach our children about local agriculture and its importance in our area. Milk doesn’t just come from the store, and meat is from a beef cow, not the deli department.
So the next time you are driving down the road and see some dairy cows on pasture grazing, remember they are Girls on Grass! They are making milk from quality feed gathered from the nutrients of the soil and the en-ergy of the sun.

PLATTSBURGH — For some people, baseball and other sports are not just a way of life but a reason to live. The SUNY Plattsburgh baseball team will be combining its love of the game with the conviction to save lives in honor of former team mem-ber Brian Mehan.
The baseball team will host ‘Brian Mehan Be The Match Day‘ on Tuesday, April 30. From 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. the team will be col-lecting swabs for bone marrow matching in the Cardinal Lounge and before the game there will also be a swabbing station set up at the Lefty Wilson Field on Bailey Ave from 6 to 7:30 p.m. before the team plays SUNY Canton that evening.
“It seems right to have the game there, it’s where we played against each other in high school and we played together in col-lege,” said former teammate Joey Painter. Mehan played for Plattsburgh High School and Painter played for Au Sable Valley before they played for PSU.
Organ donor testing
People can get tested for free during the day at campus or at the baseball field. Those tested will also be put into the organ donor registry. PSU baseball coach Kris Doorey said the Be the Match personnel will take a cotton swab and scrape along the in-side of the mouth and from that they’ll be able to tell if the person is a match for someone, he said it is easy and painless.
Doorey said the event is not just the last home game of the season but most importantly it is an opportunity to remember a former player who succumbed to leukemia in 2008. Leukemia is a cancer of the blood cells. It starts in the bone marrow, the soft tissue inside most bones. Bone marrow is where blood cells are made. When someone suffers from leukemia, the bone marrow starts to make a lot of abnormal white blood cells, called leu-kemia cells. The cells don’t do the work of normal white blood cells, grow faster than normal cells, and they don’t stop growing when they should.
Doorey said when he first met Mehan he was a “top recruit” for the team as a catcher and a first baseman.
Ò He was strong and a great player, we were really looking for-ward to having him take the field,” said Doorey.
During Mehan’s sophomore season, Doorey said Mehan was always tired and the doctors couldn’t find a reason for it, until one test came back confirming he had leukemia.
“He underwent treatment for a year and then wanted to be back on the field for the spring 2007 season, he was really ready to come back, he practiced with us all fall,” said Doorey. “Then he came to my office one day and said ‘coach we’ve got to talk’ and he told me they found more cancer.”
Mehan went through more treatments, chemotherapy and went into surgery to have a bone marrow transplant at Dart-mouth Medical Center.
“They were going in, but when they opened him up they saw he had even more cancer than they thought,” Doorey said. “They stitched him back up and they brought him home and I got to spend a whole day with him at his home here.”
Doorey said Mehan died on March 2, 2008, a few days before
his birthday. Mehan would have been 20 years old. Ò He was young, too young,Ó said Doorey. Ò It really puts every-
thing into perspective, especially puts baseball into perspective. “As a coach sometimes you get a little crazy or your expecta-
tions of players can get a little crazy. We put so much emphasis on winning,” said Doorey. “But at the end of the game our play-ers are still alive and it’s just a baseball game, we need to just go out and do our best. This has changed the way I look at things for sure.Ó
Countless lives savedLast year Doorey and Painter along with the baseball team
held the first swab in May 2012. The event generated more than 200 possible donor submissions.
About three months after testing at the game, Painter got the call from Be the Match that he was a possible match for someone.
Ò I think this person could possibly have been waiting for a while for someone to be a match and I was fortunate enough to be a part of that,” said Painter. “They told me this man’s cancer could have spread while he waited for a donor.
“It’s not that I’m noble, I just signed up and my body was healthy enough for the transplant. I’m just lucky and proud to be
able to say I did it.ÓPainter said a donor must be
a 99.9 percent genetic match, which is one reason itÕ s often difficult to match those in need with a donor.
Painter said his role as a do-nor was harder than he thought it would be in the beginning. Before he went into surgery he needed to have a Ò head to toe
physical” to make sure he was healthy enough to do the trans-plant. In October he went through a four-hour procedure and spent two days in the hospital during his bone marrow retrieval where they put needles into his pelvis, leaving him with small scars on his back, in order to retrieve the marrow. After undergo-ing surgery, Painter was called back to donate plasma on April 15 in Boston. His role as a donor showed him how fortunate he was to be healthy and give the gift of life to a stranger.
“It’s a small sacrifice for me, I don’t have cancer and I don’t know anyone who can say their lives havenÕ t been affected by cancer,Ó said Painter.
Through Be the Match, Painter said all medical expenses were handled by the non-profit which can include travel, lodging, food and other expenses for donors who must travel to receive treatments.
“Be the Match compensates 100 percent,” said Painter. “It doesn’t matter if you have insurance or you don’t they handle it.Ó
Be the Match couldn’t tell Painter much about the person who he donated his bone marrow to. Though they were able to tell him it was a male about 48 years old and from a card he received later he learned the man also had been married for 25 years and had two children.
A year after the transplant, donors and transplant recipients with Be the Match can have the opportunity to meet or speak. Painter said he hopes to take advantage of the opportunity.
“We encourage everyone to come out and get tested, it’s an opportunity to save someone’s life, if you’re on the other side you’re always hoping someone will step up, this is their oppor-tunity to potentially save a life,Ó said Doorey.

11 High Cost Home Inspection TrapsYou Should Know About Weeks
Before Listing Your Home For SaleClinton County - According to industry experts, there are over 33 physical problems that will come under scrutiny during a home inspection when your home is for sale. A new report has been prepared which identifi es the eleven most common problems, and what you should know about them before you list your home for sale.
Whether you own an old home or a brand new one, there are a number of things that can fall short of requirements during a home inspection. If not identifi ed and dealt with, any of these 11 Items could cost you dearly in terms of repair. That’s why it’s critical that you read this report before you list your home. If you wait until the building inspector fl ags these issues for you, you will almost certainly experience costly delays in the close of your home sale or, worse, turn prospective buyers away altogether.

Adrian CarrFrom page 1
The pieces in that series have a dusty, grimy appearance. There is a feeling of movement to them and a soft, geometric monotony expressed in tarnished watercolor whites and incomplete blacks.
“When I went to New York (City), everything changed. Your whole vision changes when you hit New York City,Ó Carr said.
Carr Õ s surroundings certainly illicit a distinct response, as do events in his life.
“You don’t put brush to canvass unless something inspires you,Ó Carr said.
Perhaps most striking is “Black Squares,” a piece that repre-sents Carr’s reaction to the World Trade Center bombings.
A painting so large it spans two canvasses, Black Squares is as abstract as any of Carr’s other pieces, but what comes through clearly is something intangible.
“You can see movement and the passion of the strokes, which has a lot to do with the emotional experience of 9/11,” Carr said. Ò The broken squares are like the broken pieces of the buildings.Ó
Those broken squares are black, uneven and painted against an intense earth-tone backdrop.
Beneath the squares there are broken pieces, above them there is a series of smaller squares, bright and bleeding.
In 2005, Carr left the city and moved north —far north—to be with his wife in Montreal.
He met her at the trailhead to Rocky Peak Ridge, the last High Peak he needed to climb to become an Adirondack 46er.
The soon-to-be couple got to talking; he warned her about an impending rainstorm and they exchanged cards before parting ways.
Carr visited Montreal soon after that, and contacted her. In 2004, they were married.
And once again, his paint-ings changed.
His marriage inspired another two-part painting, Ò He Said, She Said,Ó Carr Õ s interpretation on the need for, and diffi culties of, communication in a marriage.
Carr’s most recent work is a series called Ò Spiritual Light,Ó and is the result of his life in the North Country.
Ò I think that the different geographical locations impact on your psyche,Ó Carr said. Ò They bring different things out that you want to explore.Ó
Unlike his previous work, the pieces in ÒS piritual LightÓ were done using charcoal on paper.
The images depict a brightness that seems to emanate, or per-haps rise, from a darkness and are balanced by black lines drawn elsewhere on the otherwise white canvas.
Carr said that showing his work helps him see it from different perspectives, something he said he has enjoyed.
“It’s like looking at your life from a new angle,” Carr said. Ò ROTA Gallery is such a great space because theyÕ re giving peo-ple like me, and everybody, a chance to do something that might otherwise have never been done.Ó
At the opening reception of his show, Carr mingled with gal-lery-goers and announced that he was raising money to record a new CD.
Shifting gears from the medium of expression hung on the gal-leryÕ s walls, Carr, who studied at Juilliard School in NYC and has performed in Carnegie Hall, sat behind a keyboard and played two short sets of music from his previous recordings.
Ò IÕ ve been doing art all my life,” Carr said. “I really wanted to share something with the people of Plattsburgh who have been so kind to me.”
When he isn’t painting, Carr lectures at Plattsburgh State and teaches piano at the North Country Cultur-al Center for the Arts.

ROUSES POINT — The Adirondack Comedy Club will pres-ent a mostly female show titled “Giggles for Girls” to support the Girl Scouts in Champlain/Mooers.
The show will begin at 8 p.m. on April 27 at the Rouses Point American Legion, 29 Pratt Street.
Performances will include Adirondack Comedy Club organiz-er Ray Wayman, with special appearance by comedian Carmen Lagala, Autumn Engroff Spencer and headliner Kit Rivers, who promise to give the girlish giggles in their original sets.
Wayman has produced several comedy shows at the Ameri-can Legion. The upcoming fundraiser will help raise money for the troop to go to New York City at the end of the year. Wayman said they have been doing fundraisers since the fall of last year.
“The show is called ‘Giggles for Girls.’ I think it’ll be more fun than a spaghetti feed and a whole lot less messy,” said Wayman. Ò At least no one will get stains on their blouse, unless they spill a beer!Ó
The comedy show will offer people in Rouses Point a chance to
hear top comedians and enjoy a show close to home, Wayman said.“This will be the fourth comedy show that I have produced
at the American Legion and they always have a good turnout,” said Wayman. “It’s a fundraiser that is fun and a whole lot less boring than a craft fair, spaghetti feed, bake sale or shaking down grandma’s couch for spare nickels.”
The show will feature an array of acts and a plethora of materi-al. Wayman, a native of Rouses Point, has performed throughout Vermont and the Adirondacks. He uses his observational skills to make light of the crazy world he lives in and shares his twisted perspective with his audience.
Lagala is a native Vermonter and UVM graduate. In addition to managing LEVITY, Vermont’s only comedy club, Carmen performs comedy all over the state, but still does laundry at her mom’s house.
Autumn Engroff Spencer has performed in various venues in and around Vermont. Spencer lives in Burlington with her hus-band, children, and more cats than she cares to admit.
Headliner, Rivers, will bring her plucky brand of comedy ad improv comedy to the stage. The Evansville, Indiana native will bring some spoken word humor and sometimes raunchy humor
for the community to enjoy. Rivers recently open for Da-
vid Koechner from the movie Anchorman, was a fi nalist at the Higher Ground Comedy Battle, and competed in New England’s Funniest Comic com-petition. Rivers is currently studying theatre at Saint Mi-chaelÕ s College in Colchester, VT and performs stand up in and around the Burlington area.
Tickets are $10 at the door. Doors open at 7:30 and the show is at 8 p.m. Tickets can be purchased online at https://adirondackcomedyclub.ticket-bud.com/rpvalentine or at the American Legion.
For more information contact Wayman at 420-3625.

to begin a partnership of volunteering in the community.Volunteering in Plattsburgh might be new to the fraternity,
but itÕ s standard procedure for the ARC.Ò The people we serve have a lot of interest in giving back to
the community through volunteerism,” said Mike Clausen of the ARC, who helped organize the event. Ò This is not just a one day a year thing. We have people volunteering at the Humane Society, soup kitchens and the Tiger Scouts. We have volunteers all over the place.Ó
Clausen consulted the City of Plattsburgh Department of Pub-lic Works, who recommended some projects for Green-up Day.
Those projects included picking up leaves and litter, and do-ing some light painting underneath the railroad bridge that spans the Saranac River downtown.
One of the volunteers with the ARC, Marvin Desrocher, took part in the painting.
“Everybody’s been spraying graffiti down here, and I thought, ‘why not paint over it?’” Desrocher said.
Desrocher carefully ran a paint roller over the unsightly word-age, making the scenery for those entering or leaving Platts-burgh by train a little more welcoming.
He took a step back, admiring his own handiwork, and said heÕ d be happy to participate in Green-up Day again.
The level of enthusiasm was the same at Trinity Park, where
representatives of the ARC, some of the individuals they serve, and mem-bers of Pi Kappa Phi worked shoulder to shoulder using rakes to scoop debris into plastic bags.
“We decided we wanted to look into local opportunities, so we reached out to the ARC,” said Victor Delregno Jr., president of the Eta Kappa Chapter of Pi Kappa Phi. “We’re the only (na-tional) fraternity to own and operate our own philanthropy, Push America, which aims to change the way society views people with disabilities.Ó
Delregno pointed out that, when working to change peoplesÕ percep-tions, even seemingly trivial distinc-tions, like saying ‘people with disabili-ties’ instead of ‘disabled people,’ are important.
“The person always comes before the disability,” Delregno said. “We’re all the same. Some of us are born a lit-tle different, but thatÕ s not a reason to ostracize people or to stay away from them.”
Delregno said he has a cousin who is autistic, and that being close to her while growing up is what inspired him to do more to help individuals with disabilities.
Pi Kappa Phi will be participating in the Autism Awareness Walk on Saturday, April 27 at the Plattsburgh Oval.
The walk has already raised almost $10,000 to support local programs and increase awareness about autism in the commu-nity.
Registration for the event begins at 10 a.m., and the walk be-gins at 11 a.m.
To pre-register, sponsor a walker, or make a donation, visit aaneny.org.
Rounding out a busy weekend, Pi Kappa Phi is also helping the North Country Down Syndrome Association throw a bowl-ing jamboree Sunday, April 28 from 1-5 p.m. at North Bowl Lanes in Plattsburgh.
The entry fee, which in-cludes shoe rentals, is $60 for teams of four and $18 for indi-viduals. It is also $18 per per-son for teams of two or three people.
To register, email the North Country Down Syndrome Association at [email protected].

ed by the The North Country Cultural Center for the Arts.The two spring classes include: Intro to theater and Im-
provisation, and character development class called “What a Character!.Ó Classes are for students ages 5 to 12. Classes begin on April 20 and run through May 4. The classes will be taught by Deb Vanneman.
The intro course for ages 5 to 8 teaches students to devel-op stage skills through improv exercises and theater games.

The cost of the program is $95 or $85 for Arts Center mem-bers. For more information or to register, call the Arts Center at 563-1604.
Schools partner for local IMPACTTPLATTSBURGH — Beekmantown High School and Clin-
ton Community College have partnered with ETS, Inc., CITEC and The North Country Workforce Investment Board to pilot IMPACTT −the “Innovative Manufacturing Partner-ships; Advancing Careers through Technical TrainingÓ pro-gram −to address the local manufacturing industry’s need for a skilled workforce, while also helping high school graduates find sustainable-wage jobs in Clinton County.
IMPACTT began in November and will run through this summer, giving BHS students the opportunity to meet busi-ness and industry professionals as well as educators, to ex-plore the advanced manufacturing industry and options for entry-level employment after graduation. In July, new BHS graduates will participate in training to obtain the Manufac-turing Skills Standard Council (MSSC) Certified Production Technician (CPT) and National Work Readiness Credential (NWRC). IMPACTT will culminate with an employment event focused on job placement in local manufacturing com-panies.
