State budget plan unveiled

Governor goes big on winter sports venues

LAKE PLACID — Tucked

2018-19 state budget proposal
Tuesday is a huge gift for the Lake

capital funding for the state
Olympic Regional Development
Authority.
Details are scarce at this point,
but state Sen. Betty Little said it’s
her understanding that those tens
of millions would largely go to
upgrade 1980 Winter Olympic
venues as Lake Placid gears up to
host some major international
winter sports events in the next
few years. The International Chil-

2019, and local officials are con-

Tax changes on the way

By DAVID KLEPPER
and CHRIS CAROLA
Associated Press
ALBANY — New York
Gov. Andrew Cuomo vowed to
fight back against Washington
Republicans on Tuesday with a
$168 billion state budget pro-
posal that lays out spending on
schools and mass transit while
also confronting greater uncer-
tainty in federal funding.
The Democrat said he’ll
urge lawmakers to consider
restructuring the state tax sys-
tem to soften the blow of the
new federal tax overhaul
enacted by Republicans. One
idea is a new payroll tax which
would largely replace the cur-
rent income tax, an ambitious
idea that already faces chal-
lenges with New York’s
Republican lawmakers.
“We’re looking at all
options,” he said, adding that a
report from state tax officials
on possible changes will be
released Wednesday. “We
don’t want to make a bad situ-
ation worse.”
The new federal tax code
limits a deduction for state and
local taxes to $10,000. The
deduction had been especially
popular in high-tax states like
New York, where many home-
owners now face large increas-
es in their federal tax bills.
The spending proposal
released by Cuomo on Tues-
day contained few specifics
about any tax changes, which
would be worked out with law-
makers over the next few
months. Lawmakers hope to
approve a budget by April 1.
Cuomo’s proposal holds
most spending flat in order to
eliminate a $4.4 billion deficit.

Winter Games in 2021.
The Cuomo administration has
made Adirondack tourism a major
priority, and ORDA is a big part
of that. Last year the governor put
$20 million in the state budget so
ORDA could upgrade the base
lodges at its Whiteface and Gore
ski centers in Wilmington and
North Creek, respectively, as well
as build thrill rides such as a
zipline and “mountain coaster.” In
March 2016, as a particularly
warm winter wracked the ski
industry, the governor’s office
redirected $5 million from the
debt-ridden Metropolitan Trans-
portation Authority to stabilize
ORDA. Even in a good ski year,

expenses, and the state normally

Study aims to capitalize on Saranac Lake arts

By GRIFFIN KELLY
Staff Writer
SARANAC LAKE — With more than 19
venues for live music, art exhibits and educa-
tional workshops, this community has a lot of
arts and culture to offer, and consultants say a
more combined effort among these venues,
local businesses and state organizations could
have a successful economic impact.
The village hired AMS Planning and
Research this past July to conduct studies and
help direct the community into a stronger
center for arts and culture. After six months,
AMS presented their findings and took sug-
gestions for a master plan at a public forum
attended by more than 80 Saranac Lake resi-
dents, artists and business owners at the
Saranac Lake Free Library Wednesday, Jan.
10.
The public’s suggestions and concerns
were taken into account for AMS’s master
plan, which it will present Thursday, Feb. 22.

tives Lynette Turner and Brynn Elcock

they received high interest from local resi-

“Some towns have no theater or no dance,”
Turner said. “That was not an issue here.”
AMS also provided a preliminary plan to
create a Saranac Lake arts and culture website
and app, establish a welcoming committee for
visitors and potential home buyers and apply
to the New York State Council of the Arts for
funding and support.
A main portion of this plan is building part-

they’ve accepted it for what it is — a party-
themed party.
We also expect people to focus on appreciating
the elements of Carnival that don’t change every
year with the theme — and some of those things
are looking good so far.
With the recent cold weather, for instance, we
have every reason to expect the ice on Pontiac
Bay to be in fine shape. We’ll be thrilled not to
write any news articles about whether they’ll have
an Ice Palace this year, and we look forward to
some awesome architecture from the IPW Local
101 crew.
Also, this year’s button and poster look great,
bit of good news, especially good eco-
nomic news. When the news is bad, he
changes the subject. Trump is the master,
but Republicans generally are skilled at
fine-tailoring reality for their benefit.
Democrats are the opposite. They seem
to assume that the public automatically
sees the good things happening when
they’re in charge. Like psychologically
abused children, they internalize almost
any criticism. That’s why rather than
retell the story in the most flattering light,
they dive into a defensive crouch. The
inability to blast through the negative
makes much of the public think them
blameworthy.
We are now in the ninth year of a glob-
al economic expansion. For all but one
year of it, Barack Obama was president.
“Global” means that many countries are
doing well. Some, meanwhile, are doing
better than the United States. It’s not
Trump’s economy.
The stock market has indeed posted
lovely gains since Trump came into
office. From his inauguration to Jan. 5,
the day after the Dow Jones industrial
average broke through 25,000, the mar-
ket rose 26 percent. In the same period of
Obama’s first term, however, the Dow
gained 33 percent. (And Obama saw no

Anger explodes in words, deeds woman regrets Horoscopes by

DEAR ABBY: I am 28
and I’m disgusted with myself
about how I talk to my moth-
er when I’m stressed out. I
know it’s not her. It’s me.
My other issue is road rage.
When I’m behind the wheel
and the cars ahead of me are
going too slow or the drivers
make stupid moves, I’m
annoyed to the point that I
sometimes take risky chances
to get away from them. I
know it puts my life and the
lives of others at risk, and I
don’t want to be like this.
I sometimes wonder why
my parents didn’t teach me
ways to tone down my anger
when I was younger. I’m
lucky they still love me, even
when I snap at them. Do you
have any tips on how to con-
trol my temper? — SIM-
MERING IN SUBURBIA
DEAR SIMMERING: If
you think you are alone in
having these issues, you are
mistaken. We are living in
increasingly stressful times
that have affected most of us
in one way or another. If,
however, you continue allow-
ing your stress to dictate your
behavior, it may eventually
drive a wedge between you
and the people you care about.
Dear Abby
By Abigail Van Buren
aka Jeanne Phillips
It’s important that you real-
ize anger is a normal emotion.
At one time or another, anger
is experienced by everyone.
Recognizing what is causing
your stress and anger can help
you to avoid taking it out on
others.
It takes self-control — and
maturity — to react calmly,
instead of reacting angrily.
Being able to identify what’s
triggering the anger and caus-
ing you to verbalize it can
help to prevent an outburst.
Instead say, “When you do or
say that, it makes me angry.”
Or try saying, “Mom, I’m
stressed right now. Can we
discuss this later?” Or, “I’ve
had a really rough day. I need
to be alone for a little while.”
Then go for a walk to help you
to regain your perspective.
Developing the ability to do
this will not only lessen your
guilt, but also earn you the
respect of those with whom
you interact. My Anger Book-
let contains many suggestions
for managing and construc-
tively expressing anger in var-
ious situations. It can be
ordered by sending your name
and mailing address, plus a
check or money order for $7
in U.S. funds to Dear Abby
— Anger Booklet, P.O. Box
447, Mount Morris, IL
61054-0447. Shipping and
handling are included in the
price. As to your “over the
top” reactions when you are in
your car driving, try to
remember that we are all
human and make mistakes. I
have made them, and so have
you.
If you must drive during
rush hours, try listening to
music or an audio book. And
count to 10 before you hit the
accelerator. Avoid blasting
the horn or making rude ges-
tures. (Screaming is permissi-
ble as long as your windows
are closed.)
People who lose control not
only can get hurt in a variety
of ways, but also hurt others
— including innocent
bystanders. That’s why it is
very important to be able to
express anger in healthy ways.
We are living in a time
when the anger level in our
society has reached new
heights. As we have seen all
too often in news reports,
explosive anger is the most
dangerous of all. Perhaps con-
structive anger management
should be taught in schools to
help people more effectively
communicate in a healthy
manner.
DEAR ABBY: I’ve been
seeking the answer to this for
years. My husband is
deceased. Am I still related to
his family? How do I intro-
duce them? — IN LIMBO

DEAR IN LIMBO: You
are as related to them as you
want to be. Introduce them by
their names or as your former

Holiday
By Holiday Mathis
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Watch out for laziness in
others, and be vigilant against the tendency yourself. As the
ancient wisdom suggests, “He who is lazy in his work is
brother to him that destroys.”
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). It’s time to travel light,
both metaphorically and literally. Why carry more than is
necessary? Leave past pain and future worries out of the
satchel. Carry only what you’ll need in this hour.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Did you know that over half
of college graduates don’t wind up in the field of their
major? Relatedly, today you will not apply what you’ve
learned in a direct and logical fashion.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). To handle the current prob-
lem, you will need more data about it. You’ll also need dif-
ferent tools and resources. Gather information, and look for
people who have already solved this or something similar.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It’s not too late. It’s never too
late. If you knew with every fiber of your being that this was
the truth, what would you do now? That’s the best way to
spend your day.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Getting out of yourself will
be the biggest challenge. One way to settle in more com-
fortably (which is the first step) will be to turn your focus to
the environment and become curious about the people in it
and all that’s going on there.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Seductive and glamorous
propositions abound. Before you head further into this, find
out more from trusted sources. Ignorance, like darkness, is a
lack of illumination that can cause pretty serious stumbles.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). What if you knew that try-
ing to make something better was as absurd as trying to per-
fect the sea or improve upon the sunlight? What then?
Maybe this isn’t about changing so much as it’s about learn-
ing the magnificence of a thing.

How much water

is too much?
DEAR DR. ROACH: I am
a rather healthy 35-year-old
female. I drink a lot of water
daily — approximately 5-6
liters, just because I feel the
need to. My doctor does not
seem concerned, as she says it
may be normal for my body.
I’ve been drinking these
amounts for five to six years (I
think it started during preg-
nancy). My family is con-
ing to the moon. The light inside you will be quietly, con-
stantly reflected. You’ll feel at once big enough to hold the
vastness of space in your palm and small enough to be
enveloped in it.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Any harm that is done in
the name of believing the wrong thing can be undone in the
name of believing the right thing. Go back and examine the
beliefs that led to the discontent. One or more of them is
faulty. Root it out.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The message can be the

DEAR DR. ROACH: In
2010, my husband had an
abdominal/pelvic CT scan (for
an unrelated reason), and they
found a 14-mm mass in his Beetle Bailey by Mort Walker
lower right kidney. In 2017, a
repeat scan showed that the
mass was much larger, and he
had the kidney removed. The
pathology showed a 48-by-
40-mm papillary kidney can-
cer, type 1. We were told that
removing the kidney would be
by Eugene Sheffer

curative, and no other testing

(scans) have been ordered. We
have not been told of specific
type or staging. I had breast
cancer in the past (mastectomy
and radiation) so am familiar
with the process. Is renal can-
cer different? We just feel out Garfield by Jim Davis
of the loop and that we should
have more information on this
cancer. He has lost a lot of
weight. — K.K.
ANSWER: Several kinds of
cancers start in the kidney, but
papillary kidney cell cancer is
a less common type. Fortu-
nately for you and your hus-
band, type 1 generally are not
as aggressive, and people with
this kind of kidney cancer
have a better prognosis than
people with other types. It is
completely obvious, at least in
hindsight, that the 14-mm Mutts by Patrick McDonnell
mass should not have gone so
long without a follow-up.
Around the time of diagno-
sis, an evaluation is undertak-
en to look for evidence of
spread, including a CT scan of
the lungs. Kidney cancer also
can go to the bone, so if he had
any bone pain or elevated
blood tests showing bone dam-
age (called alkaline phos-
phatase), most experts would
recommend a bone scan as
well. If there is no spread, the
five-year survival in people
with this type of cancer is
greater than 90 percent. No Mark Trail by Jack Elrod
chemotherapy is indicated if
there is no evidence of spread.
I would recommend a visit
with a medical oncologist, just
to make sure his workup is
complete.
The weight loss is concern-
ing. It may indeed have been
the tumor; cancers can make
substances that cause people
to lose weight. However, I per-
sonally wouldn’t stop looking,
especially if the weight loss
continues.

Sports Writer
SARANAC LAKE —
The Lake Placid girls basket-
ball team made the short trip
to Saranac Lake Tuesday
night and returned home vic-
torious after topping the Red
Storm 31-24.
Both teams started off
slow, with Lake Placid final-
ly putting some points on the
board about midway through
the first quarter. Saranac
Lake had trouble answering,
and the Blue Bombers soon
had a 6-0 lead, until Red
Storm senior Jayda Buckley
drained a 3-pointer from the
top of the key with 2 minutes
left in the opening quarter.
Placid took a 12-5 lead into
the second.
Saranac Lake rallied in the
second quarter and came up
with some big defensive
stops to halt the visitors’
scoring spree. Buckley, who
finished with six points on
the night, made another 3 in
the second as the Red Storm
outscored the Bombers 7-5
in the quarter. Saranac Lake
was also able to neutralize
Lake Placid’s Graci Daby,
who put up a game-high 10
points on the night, but was
held scoreless in the second
quarter. Lake Placid went
into the half up 17-12.
After the break, the Storm
came out swinging and again
Injuries to key scorers thin out lines for Blue Jackets
By MITCH STACY
AP Sports Writer
COLUMBUS, Ohio —
The winter has been cruel to
the injury-riddled Columbus
Blue Jackets.
Three of the team’s top
forwards and a defenseman
went down in December,
followed by another key for-
ward this month. Coach
John Tortorella has moved
players around and patched
together lines with help
from the team’s AHL affili-
ate in Cleveland. The lack of
depth has been evident.
Without last year’s top
scorer, Cam Atkinson, and
centers Brandon Dubinsky
and Alexander Wennberg,
the Blue Jackets limped to a
6-7-2 record in December.
Rookie winger Sonny
Milano was hurt in the win
over Toronto on Jan. 8.
Even with Wennberg
back in the lineup, the Blue
Jackets lost back-to-back

worst teams, Buffalo and

outscored the Bombers in the
third quarter as Roslyn
McClatchie put up three 3s in
the third to lead Saranac Lake
with a team-high nine points
on the night. McClatchie’s
back-to-back 3s just about
halfway through the quarter
gave the Red Storm their first
and only lead of the night.
Saranac Lake’s Kailee
McCormick sank her only
basket to give Saranac Lake
11 in the quarter, while Dabi,
Lindsey Rath and Kaleigh
McKillip each contributed to
the Bombers’ eight points.
Going into the fourth quar-
ter, Lake Placid point guard
Camille Craig drained a 3 of
her own, while Rath also
sank one from outside the
arc. Saranac Lake’s Magee
Carpenter made a free throw
for the Storms’ only point of
the quarter.
Red Storm coach Frank
Johns was not pleased with
the game his girls played as
they moved to 4-6 on the
season.
“Too many turnovers, and
we didn’t get very many
offensive rebounds in the
first half,” he said. “They
deserve it. We turned the ball
over too many times. You
can’t give the ball to the
other team and expect to win.
You gotta take care of the
basketball.
“We had like 17 or 18
five-day break at 3-3 for the

and start back up again
Thursday at home against
Dallas.
Atkinson, with a fractured
foot, and Dubinsky, who
had his eye socket broken in
a fight Dec. 12, will be out
until mid-February or later.
“We lick our wounds and
get back to work and try to
get things straightened out,”
Tortorella said. “We just
have to reset ourselves here
and try to find our way.”
Columbus hasn’t been the
only NHL team to endure
injuries to significant play-
ers in the first half. Other
players around the league
also have been suffering:
MARK SCHEIFELE, C,

turnovers, that’s just too
many.”
Lake Placid’s Craig had
the opposite reaction after
the game, citing the rivalry
between the two teams.
“It was fun, I thought we
played really well,” she said.
“I think we need to run
through our plays better and
not just rush because we’re
excited.
“Although we were really
excited, there were moments
of brilliance where we would
pull it together.”
Lake Placid coach Jeff
Potter said he was pleased
with the win even though he
thought the girls could have
done some things better.
“Well, it was ugly, but
we’ll take it,” Potter said.
“It’s good to come over and
get a win against your rival.
We shot a lot better tonight
than we have been and had
good pressure defense.
“They hustle a lot, they
work together defensively.
We’ve got some tough
games coming up, but it was
good to come over here and

Coming out
changes the
game for
Kenworthy
By EDDIE PELLS
AP National Writer
PARK CITY, Utah — Gus
Kenworthy’s life has
changed, and unlike most ath-
letes who make it big at the
Olympics, it’s only partly
because of the medal he won.
When he left Sochi four
years ago, Kenworthy was
known as the silver medal-
winning, dog-saving freestyle
skier who was part of a his-
toric U.S. medals sweep in
the first Olympic ski
slopestyle contest.
His supposedly perfect stay
in Russia was something
much less, however, mainly
because of the secret he kept.
He was gay but would not tell
the world for almost two
more years. Now that he has
gotten that out in the open, he
feels a great sense of relief,
but he also is aware that his
newfound comfort comes at a
price. Fair or not, his next trip
to the Olympics, next month
in Pyeongchang, carries high-
er stakes.
“I’ve got more eyeballs on
me,” he said. “My platform’s
a lot bigger. I signed a bunch
of Olympic sponsors and I
have the LGBT audience
watching me, and I want to do
right by them.”
Four years ago, there was a
strange disconnect between
Kenworthy’s made-for-
People-magazine story —
man wins medal, then goes
around the mountains saving
stray dogs — and his unwill-
ingness to embrace it, espe-
cially once he returned home.
What most people didn’t
know was that it was
Kenworthy’s boyfriend at the
time who was doing the
heavy lifting with the dogs —
getting their vaccinations,
handling the paperwork and
helping bring them home —
and the boyfriend, along with
everything else about
Kenworthy’s private life, was
still a secret. Kenworthy said
his dream would have been to
ski down the mountain, win
the medal and rush into his
companion’s arms to cele-
brate.
Didn’t happen.
“I felt like I was already
being so courageous with my
body and my actions and the
things I was doing in order to
try to win and be the best,”
Kenworthy explained in
2016, in discussing his com-
ing out with The Associated
Press. “Then, I was being
such a coward in this other
way, where I wouldn’t let
anyone know. So they were
battling each other. I’m excit-
ed where those two things can
go hand in hand.”
Kenworthy’s coming out
has led to different expecta-
tions from different sections
of the LGBT community.
He’s well aware he cannot
satisfy everybody.
His opinion regarding
President Donald Trump and
a potential post-Olympic
White House visit that he
would skip got more buzz
than those of most, in part
because Kenworthy is now
seen as someone unafraid to
speak his mind, when many
of his fellow Olympians
might not.
“I think me not going will
make zero difference, but it
makes me feel I’m doing a lit-
tle something, and I’d be
proud not to go,” he said.
His willingness to stand up,
and stand out, has earned him
widespread approval in the
endorsement world.
Olympic athletes have
always had short periods to
cash in on their once-every-
four-years window of fame.
And more often than not, sim-
ply being a great swimmer or
freestyle skier is not enough
to carry the day. Given the
messages of tolerance and
equality the Olympics try to
promote, the 26-year-old sil-
ver medalist quickly became
a popular target for sponsors.
Among those who signed him
are Visa, Toyota, Chobani,
Deloitte, Ralph Lauren and
24 Hour Fitness. There were
other offers he turned down.

Jones protests suspension of prison package program
By AARON CERBONE
Staff Writer
State Assemblyman Billy
Jones is calling on Gov.
Andrew Cuomo to bring
back a pilot program that
limited the types of food and
supplies families could send
in care packages to loved
ones living in prison.
The pilot program was
developed in an effort to
crack down on contraband
such as drugs or weapons
from entering state prisons
and was implemented Dec.
7 at Greene, Green Haven
and Taconic correctional
facilities, with plans to
introduce it statewide this
summer. Instead of home-
made packages filled with
groceries bought from local
stores and personal items,
families of inmates at these
three facilities were pur-
chasing the materials
through secure vendors
online, who would ship the
custom care packages them-
selves.
Packages from families
were searched with X-ray
and K-9 units before deliv-
ery to inmates.
Several inmate advocacy
groups, and even the
National Supermarket Asso-
ciation, wrote letters to the
governor decrying the pro-
gram, saying it was punitive,
unjust and would hurt local
shops in minority communi-
ties. As articles on the pro-
gram began to circulate, the
governor responded,
rescinding the pilot program
and describing it as
“flawed.”
Jones, a Democrat from
Chateaugay and a former
correctional officer himself,
said though the program
may have some problems,
they should be amended
without scrapping it.
“If they have a problem
with some of the issues that
are being brought up, then
let’s readdress that. Don’t
just cancel the whole pro-
gram,” Jones said. “Let’s
stick with the program that
will help secure the safety of
everyone in those facilities.”

released a survey on arts and
culture in Saranac Lake in
September. The survey was
sent out in a mass email to
village residents. There were
a few murmurs in the crowd
of people who didn’t even
know the survey existed.
Turner and Elcock didn’t
have the number of how
many people they sent it to,
but they did report how many
completed the 10-minute
survey.
Out of the 320 people who
completed the survey, only
eight were against increased
spending and initiatives for
arts and culture in Saranac
Lake.
A few attendees wanted
more information about if
investments into arts and cul-
ture will actually turn a prof-
it.
Thomas Minehan, a local
retired doctor, sought to ease
people’s worries about the
money with the story of
Rockland, Maine, a town that
for a long time was known
for its fish waste processing
plants and the rotting smells
that came with them. After
the largest fish waste pro-
cessing plant in town left the
area, Rockland turned into a
major hub for tourism and
arts and culture.
“In the last five years,”
Minehan said, “they started
getting cruise ships stopping
in with people dropping a lot
of cash.”
Harrietstown Council-
woman Jordanna Mallach
raised concerns about having
an arts program that her
daughter and other children
can walk to after school.
