How responsive are
our elected leaders?
Canandaigua
resident sends
letter to 18
elected officials
— only 4 respond
By Julie Sherwood
jsherwood@
messengerpostmedia.com
John Strachan is a newcomer
to Canandaigua.
He and his wife recently
moved to the town to enjoy
retirement
close to family.
Soon after-
ward he joined
the Daily
Messenger's
Editorial Board
Strachan as a community
member, and
with two things in mind — envi-
ronmental concerns over the
health of the Finger Lakes and
wondering how responsive law-
makers are to constituents — he
performed a social experiment.
Strachan mailed a letter to 18
elected officials who represent
all or part of the region, from
Canandaigua City Council
reps on up to the president. The
letter raised concerns about the
safety of our lakes and drinking
water and asked how the elected
leaders proposed to protect our
environmental assets. Strachan
then waited for responses.
The response rate was far
from 100 percent, which he
says he didn’t expect. But 22
percent? Yes, Strachan received
responses from just four of
the 18 elected leaders he had
contacted.
Who received letters?
Strachan mailed all of the let-
ters on May 16. A letter went to
the mayor of Canandaigua and
each of the eight City Council
members; to state Sens. Pam
Helming, R-Canandaigua, and
Rich Funke, R-Fairport; state
Assemblyman Brian Kolb,
R-Canandaigua; Gov. Andrew
Cuomo; U.S. Reps. Chris
Collins, R-Clarence, and Tom
Reed, R-Corning; U.S. Sens.
Chuck Schumer and Kirsten
Gillibrand; and President
Donald Trump.
Who responded?
• Gov. Andrew Cuomo, May
18
• Assembly Minority Leader
Brian Kolb, May 23
• Canandaigua Mayor Ellen
Polimeni, June 12
• Scott Stoner, chief of
Water Quality Standards and
Analytical Support for the state
Department of Environmental
Conservation (on behalf of the
governor), June 15

• President Donald Trump,
Aug. 30
In a nutshell, here’s what the
response letters said:
Cuomo assured Strachan the
appropriate members of his
administration were review-
ing the letter and would follow
up. In the follow-up letter from
Stoner, the DEC water chief
addressed specific concerns
that covered the problem of
harmful blue-green algae.
Stoner noted the establishment
of the NYSDEC Finger Lakes
Water Hub, the multi-region
watershed team addressing
Finger Lakes water quality
issues, as well as details regard-
ing programs and research
efforts underway.
Kolb’s letter noted that,
as a long-time resident of
the Finger Lakes region, he
shares Strachan’s concerns.
Kolb assured Strachan of his
ongoing advocacy for “main-
taining and ensuring the purity

CANANDAIGUA — One of
the owners of the Pinnacle

reiterated the need to amend a
tax deal or the remainder of the
ambitious lakefront project is in
jeopardy.
City Council’s finance/

action on the request.
But during its meeting
Thursday night, councilmem-

meeting for Monday, Nov.
6, to further discuss the pro-

Goodwin.
“There are a lot of vari-

make an informed decision,”
Goodwin said.
The first phase of the project is
substantially complete, accord-
ing to Kevin Morgan, a principal
in Morgan Management and

But in order for the remaining
four phases to get underway,

ccording to the
Centers for Disease
Control and
Prevention, “Every 13
seconds, a poison control
center in the United States
answers a call about a pos-
sible poisoning. More than
90 percent of these expo-
sures occur in the home.”
A variety of sources can
cause poisoning to people
and pets. Two significant
items that float to the top
of the list are medicines
and household cleaning
products. Depending on
the exposure level, the
severity of the emergency
— and whether the item
was breathed or ingested
— can be as detrimen-
tal as long-term health
effects or even death.
Young children most
commonly are poisoned
by cosmetics, house-
hold cleaning prod-
ucts and pain relievers.
Prevention is key.
Ensuring proper storage
of these items is critical
and could be the differ-
ence between life and
death. Many children
confuse medicine and
cleaning products for
candy. Similar packag-
ing, shapes, sizes, and

Donald Bain, ghost writer for
popular novels, dead at 82
Donald Bain, a prolific
author and ghost writer
whose credits included
such popular crime series
as “Murder, She Wrote” and
the racy best-seller “Coffee,
Tea or Me?”, has died.
Bain’s literary agent, Bob
Diforio, said Bain died Oct.
21. Diforio said Saturday that
Bain was 82 and died of con-
gestive heart failure.
Bain had more than 100
credits, mostly as a ghost-
writer, including the tie-in
novels to the “Murder, She
Wrote” television series that
starred Angela Lansbury and
Margaret Truman’s “Capital
Crimes” thrillers. He was
also the uncredited author
of “Coffee, Tea Or Me?”, the
million-selling novel about
the exploits of two airline
attendants.
In recent years, Bain pub-
lished a novel under his own
name, “Lights Out!”, and the
memoir “Murder HE Wrote:
A Successful Writer’s Life.”
After Margaret Truman
died, in 2008, he continued
“Capital Crimes,” receiving
credit for “Undiplomatic
Cover” and other novels.
Bain was married twice,
most recently to Renee
Paley-Bain, who died last
year.

LONG ISLAND
Authorities: Another set of
remains found
The remains of a sus-
pected victim of gang
violence were found Friday
on Long Island, authorities
said at a news conference
Saturday morning.
Police said the remains
were discovered in a
wooded area in Nassau
County. An FBI official said
investigators believe the
death is “gang-related.”
It was the third time
human remains were found
in Nassau County within
two weeks.
Earlier this month, police
acting on tip discovered the
remains of a 16-year-old
reported missing since July.
The FBI’s Long Island
Gang Task Force found more
remains on Wednesday
during a search of a county

After 15 years, probe into slaying
of Run-DMC star goes cold
Some remain hopeful
Jam Master Jay’s
killer will be found
By Tom Hays
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — A mural
of Run-DMC’s Jam Master
Jay, his arms crossed in
defiance, looms over the
hallway of the Queens
recording studio where he
was shot to death 15 years
ago. The memorial gives
no hint of a disturbing
footnote to the DJ’s tale of
fame and misfortune: The
killer, so far, has gotten
away with it.
New York City police
detectives acknowledge
that their investigation
into the Oct. 30, 2002,
killing of the artist, whose
given name was Jason
Mizell, has gone cold.
But some in the borough
where Jam Master Jay,
Joe “Run” Simmons and
Darryl “DMC” McDaniels
emerged as rap sensations
in the 1980s hold out hope
that witnesses could still
come forward.
“It’s not resolved to the
legal eye, but the street
always talks,” said Jeremy
“JL” Lam, a friend of Jam
Master Jay’s family and a
partner in the latest ver-
sion of the Queens studio.
Family members, how-
ever, are less optimistic.

Jay’s older sister, Bonita
Jones, said from their
mother’s home in North
Carolina.
A cousin, Ryan
Thompson, believes the
potential witnesses may
never come forward

Thompson, also a DJ

and possibly even research

as “King of Rock,” ‘’It’s
Tricky” and a remake of
Aerosmith’s “Walk This
Way.” And one of Jam
Master Jay’s acts of kind-
nesses included opening a
24/7 studio in a then-vio-
lent section of Queens for
artists who needed a start.
Famed rapper 50 Cent was
among those he mentored
there.
It was in that studio on
the night before Halloween
2002 when police say two
armed men were buzzed
inside. Thompson, once
hired as security “to keep
the riff raff out,” said he
had left the job because he
wasn’t getting paid.
According to some
highest number of con-
firmed Lyme cases.
“This is a serious public
health issue across the
state,” said Sen. Joseph
Griffo, R-Rome, Oneida
County. “My colleagues
and I in the Senate have
been actively working to
reverse this trend. I am
looking forward to making
even more progress in the
days and months ahead.”
New laws
The 2017 legisla-
tive session may have
ended months ago but
Democratic Gov. Andrew
Cuomo is still working his
way through a long list of
bills. Several were recently
signed into law.
One new law authorizes
the creation of “tanker-
avoidance zones” on the
Hudson River to restrict
where oil tankers can

range, entered the left
side of his head. The men
vanished.
Speculation followed
that Jam Master Jay, who
was drowning in debt, may
have been killed on orders
from someone to whom he
owed money.
Police said there were
at least four other people
in the studio at the time.
But none provided enough
details to produce fruit-
ful leads. Thompson said
a security camera in the
studio was broken.
after the U.S. Coast Guard
proposed 10 anchor-
ages along the Hudson
for tankers traveling
between Albany and New
York City. Environmental
groups as well as resi-
dents objected, raising
safety and environmental
concerns.
“An increase in petro-
leum tankers would pose a
direct threat to coastal fish
and wildlife, local drinking
water, the safety of water-
front communities and
economic development
in our beautiful region,”
said Assemblywoman Didi
Barrett, a Hudson Valley
Democrat. “This is truly a
victory for everyone who
voiced their opposition
to the Coast Guard’s ill-
advised proposal.”

Cuomo last week gives all
children in foster care the

of our region’s waters.” Kolb
outlined specific funding
highlights designated as part
of the 2017/2018 state budget
toward water quality.
Polimeni wrote: “We
are fortunate to have a
strong watershed group,
Canandaigua Lake Watershed
Council, made up of all
municipals who border the
lake or draw water from the
lake. The sole focus is pro-
tecting area waterways and
the lake.” She provided
Strachan with information to
learn more about the council,
encouraged him to attend its
bimonthly meetings and said
she would share his letter
and her response with other
members of the council, “for
we like to receive letters such
as yours.”
Trump thanked Strachan
“for sharing your views on
energy and environmental
policy.”
The president also said,
in part, “As President, I am
committed to unleashing
America’s economic poten-
tial, while also protecting the
environment. I am confident
that together we can preserve
America’s natural blessings
for future generations.”
Those who didn't
respond
None of the City Council
members said they recalled
receiving the letter mailed
May 16.
“That is a long time
ago,” remarked Ward 2
Councilmember Anita
Twitchell. “I appreciate
that (Strachan) is civically
engaged,” she added. “Rest
assured I am on his side.”
Ward 1 Councilmember
Nick Cutri said he was in the
hospital for several weeks
around the time the letter was
sent, which may be why he did
not recall receiving the letter.
“I couldn’t say that I got it,”
Cutri added.
At-Large Councilmember
Jim Terwilliger said he did
not recall the letter. Neither
did at-Large Councilmembers
Matt Martin or Dave
Whitcomb. Efforts to reach
At-Large Councilmember
Robert O’Brien for com-
ment on this article were
unsuccessful.
Whitcomb said he would be
happy to talk about the issue
with Strachan, adding “we do
everything we can in the city”
such as supporting programs
to keep invasive species out of
the lake and a moratorium on
the use of pesticides and her-
bicides in city parks.
Martin noted that, many
times with constituent con-
cerns, the council refers those
concerns to the appropriate
department to respond.
Ward 4 Councilmember
Cindy Wade recalled dis-
cussions in general about
programs and projects to
protect the lake. She said
councilmembers receive a lot
of mail and that things can get
missed.
“The amount of junk mail,
especially, is amazing,” Wade
said.
Ward 3 Councilmember
Karen White looked for the
letter, couldn’t find it, and
asked to see a copy.
“I do not remember reading
this letter,” she replied in an
email. “He makes a couple of
points that really capture my
attention so I think I would
have remembered it.
White asked for Strachan's
contact information so she
could get in touch.
From the state senators,
Matt Nelligan, chief of staff
for Funke, said there was no
record of Strachan’s letter.
He explained the procedure
for responding to letters from
constituents: If the letter is
from a constituent in Funke’s
55th District, “we’d get it
logged in and respond to it,”
he said. Responses generally
go out within two weeks.
In the case of letters from
people outside the district,
such as Strachan who is in the
54th, the letter is forwarded to
the representative of that dis-
trict, he said.
From Helming,
Communications Director
Jonathan Monfiletto looked
for record of the letter and
then requested a copy. He also
requested a phone number to
reach Strachan and provided
the following statement from
Helming:
“Constituent service is
my number one priority — it
was when I was Canandaigua
Town Supervisor, and it is
now that I am State Senator.
This summer and fall, I’ve
held 10 Mobile Office Hours/
Town Halls across the district,
including one at the Wood
Library in Canandaigua. My
office has also had over 6,600
interactions (via mail, phone
and email) with constitu-
ents, with the goal of being as
accessible as possible to the
individuals and families I rep-
resent. Additionally, I meet
with numerous constituents
on a daily basis in my office in
Geneva.
“My staff and I make every
effort to ensure that individu-
als who reach out to our office
receive a timely response. On
the few occasions when a
response has fallen through
the cracks or was considered
not timely, we have made
every effort to reconcile
their concerns. As always, I
will continue to make myself
available to the people of the
54th District, and I encour-
age all individuals to contact
my office to make their voices
heard.”
From the Congress
members, Tom Reed’s
Communications Director
Samantha Cotten replied:
“Thanks for reaching out.
Mr. Strachan is not a resident
of the 23rd congressional
district. He lives in the 27th
district. As a courtesy, we
do not send correspondence
to other representatives'
constituents.”
At the office of Chris Collins,
Communications Director
Sarah Minkel said they found
the letter “and are looking into
his concerns.” She sent the
following statement:
“Serving our constituents
and addressing their con-
cerns is the most important
aspect of a Congressional
office, and we deeply regret
this oversight. We pay care-
ful attention to each phone
call, letter and email received
and take pride in our timely
responses. The office has
located Mr. Strachan’s letter,
which was incorrectly tagged
in our database. We have
looked into his concerns and
will be responding to him
shortly.”
(Strachan got a message
Thursday to contact Collins’
D.C. office).
In the U.S. Senate, Jason
Kaplan with Schumer’s office
checked on the letter and
then asked for a copy, along
with Strachan’s contact
information.
At Gillibrand’s office,
spokeswoman Alexandria
Phillips sent the follow-
ing: “Senator Gillibrand’s
office values hearing from
constituents on all issues,
especially issues affecting
them directly in their com-
munities. Constituent service
is at the core of what we do,
and it is incredibly important
to the Senator that we solve
constituents’ problems and
address their concerns. We
aim to respond as quickly as
possible, and we’re always
striving to do better.”
What does Strachan make of
his experiment? He has a few
observations:
“Cuomo's was basically a
form letter, but it came just
three days later. He promised
someone from the appropriate
department would follow up,
and they did — EnCon sent a
detailed response about a
month later. Polimeni's was
very nice and obviously a
personal letter that she or a
staffer spent some time on.
Ditto for Kolb. His response
took some work for whoever
was responsible for it.”
Was he surprised at the
response? He said he didn’t
expect to hear from Trump
when the surprise letter
arrived in August. Overall,
“I wasn't expecting a 100
percent response, but I was
surprised at how bad it was,”
Strachan said.
“I'm prone to give a pass
to the City Council members
who blew it off, since I live in
the town of Canandaigua and
they do not represent me,” he
added “Since Polimeni took
the time to respond, maybe
we can tell ourselves she was
writing on their behalf.
"Frankly, I wasn't expect-
ing a response from the two
congressmen," Strachan said.
"The one who really disap-
pointed me was Gillibrand.
She has always impressed
me as someone who is on top
of everything ... who would
see to the smallest detail and
would want to make sure that
any heartfelt correspondence
from a constituent would get
a reply.”
And how does he think his
experiment reflects on the
lawmakers?
“To me, it's just another
indication that our represen-
tatives … are woefully out of
touch with us," Strachan said.
"They don't seem to under-
stand that a simple gesture
like responding to a letter like
this can bring them so much
goodwill and future support —
even a one- or two-sentence
auto-signed form letter writ-
ten by a staff member.”
SHOOTING

happened that day.
Canandaigua Police Sgt.
Scott Kadien entered the apart-
ment to check on the welfare of
Guardiola, who was to return
to work but did not report to
work that day. She had been on
medical leave after a Sept. 4 car
accident.
Kadien knocked on her bed-
room door, entered and spoke
to Guardiola, who State Police
said was semi responsive. He
then called for an ambulance.
Upon re-entering the bedroom,
State Police said Guardiola
raised her weapon and shot at
Kadien and missed. He again
gave verbal commands not to
pick up the weapon, but after
she raised her weapon, Kadien
shot and struck her three times.
Guardiola later died at the
hospital.
Canandaigua Police Chief
Stephen Hedworth said Kadien,
who he said was in fear for his
life, acted appropriately.
Guardiola's family, as well as
their attorney and Sharpton,
believe there is more to the
story, and called on Gov.
Andrew Cuomo and Attorney
General Eric Schneiderman to
appoint a special prosecutor to
investigate the case, according
to Daily Messenger news part-
ner, News 10NBC. Reporters for
the station attended the event
Saturday.
The family and Sharpton
believe the investigation was
not thorough because Kadien
is also an assistant district
attorney.
The family also disputed
claims that officials had con-
tacted them two days after the
Oct. 4 incident. They said no
such contact was made until the
past week. State Police Capt.
OPIOIDS
Continued from A1
soldiers and others became
addicted to a new pharmaceuti-
cal called morphine, one of the
first of many man-made opioids.
There was another in the early
1900s after a different drug was
developed to help “cure” mor-
phine addiction. It was called
heroin.
Cocaine was also developed
by drugmakers and sold to help
morphine addiction. It cleared
nasal passages, too, and became
the official remedy of the Hay
Fever Association. In 1910,
President William H. Taft told
Congress that cocaine was the
most serious drug problem the
nation had ever faced.
Over the next century, abuse
outbreaks of cocaine, heroin, and
other drugs like methamphet-
amine, marketed as a diet drug,
would emerge and then fall back.
“There are one or two or
three wolves ahead of the pack
that seem to be the most press-
ing threat, their jaws closest to
you,” said David Courtwright, a
University of North Florida his-
torian who has written books on
U.S. drug epidemics. “But there’s
always a pack. The history is that
the lead wolves keep shifting.”
Trump vowed in his recent
remarks “we will free our nation
from the terrible affliction of
drug abuse.” But the grim reality
is that these drugs never disap-
pear completely once they’ve
emerged.
The good news, though, is that
drug epidemics do fade consider-
ably — usually because reduced
supply and demand eventually
diminish the number of new
addictions, experts say. And that
history offers some hope for the
future.
The 1800s: better — and
more dangerous —
medicines
Most U.S. drug epidemics
over the past two centuries were
sparked by pharmaceutical com-
panies and physicians pushing
products that gradually proved
to be addictive and dangerous.
In the 1800s the drug was often
opium, usually sold as a liquid
in products like laudanum, and
given to patients for pain or trou-
ble sleeping. Mary Todd Lincoln,
Sandy Guardiola, who was shot
to death earlier this month at her
Pinnacle North apartment, was a
48-year-old mother of two.

Carolyn Mullin said investiga-
tors reached out to the family
Friday to inform them of the
results of the preliminary
investigation.
"The more I heard, the less
I liked," said Sharpton, who
urged Rochester-area churches
and activists to rally to the case.
He also tweeted this Saturday:
“There needs to be an indepen-
dent investigation.”
Hedworth on Friday said the
investigation results are based
on fact, not on speculation,
adding he is "100 percent con-
fident" in the results.
Ocasio, in the statement,
questioned how local investi-
gators could truly be impartial.
“We will forever miss her
beautiful smile and her loving
presence,” according to the
Ocasio statement. “The loss of
my mom has left a hole in all of
our hearts. I know I speak for
my whole family and everyone
my mother touched when I say
that we will not rest until we get
justice for her.”

President Lincoln’s wife, took
it for headaches and became
addicted.
The drug was also used to get
high. “Opium fiends” smoked it in
opium dens like those in San Fran-
cisco’s Chinatown. Rev. Frederick
Masters, a 19th century Methodist
missionary, described opium dens
in that city as dark, fumy base-
ments “sepulcher-like in their
silence save for the sputtering of
opium pipes or the heavy breath-
ing of their sleeping victims.”
The young nation’s drug prob-
lem grew because of morphine,
a painkiller derived from opium
through a chemical process that
was perfected by E. Merck &
Company of Germany. It made
battlefield injuries more bear-
able for Civil War soldiers, but
so many veterans got hooked that
morphine addiction was some-
times called “the army disease.”
It would get worse. Cocaine
and heroin were soon devel-
oped — in part to help morphine
addiction.
Merck introduced cocaine,
which became a prime ingredient
in a variety of over-the-counter
tonics for sinus problems and
other ailments. Because of its
energizing effects, beverage
makers put it in their wines and
sodas and laborers in the South
sniffed it to get through grueling
work shifts.
Bayer, another German phar-
maceutical company, began
marketing heroin in the 1890s.
It often came in pill form, with-
out prescription, and was used to
treat the flu and respiratory ail-
ments. But it came to be sniffed
— and later injected — by those
looking for a more intense high
or a substitute for other drugs,
whether it was morphine in 1905
or opioid pain pills like Vicodin in
2015.
The early 1900s: from cure
to curse
In the early 1900s cocaine
shifted from a consumer fad into
reviled epidemic, as physicians
began documenting addic-
tion problems and police chiefs
linked recreational cocaine use
to prostitution and violent crime.
It led to the first national effort
to contain a drug epidemic: In
1914, Congress passed the Har-
rison Act, which said cocaine
and heroin could be sold only as
a prescription medicine, not in
over-the-counter remedies or
in consumer products.

NATION&WORLD
Ambiguous middle class courted by both sides
By Marcy Gordon
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — What is
middle class?
President Donald Trump and
Republican leaders are pro-
moting their tax-cutting plan
as needed relief for the stressed
American middle class and a
catalyst for job creation.
Democrats say they’re the
ones looking out for the middle
class, by fighting against pro-
posed tax cuts that would
benefit big companies and the
wealthy but hurt the aver-
age American. It’s not easy to
exactly define this middle class,
whose members are champi-
oned and courted for their votes
by both sides. Lawmakers and
experts have differing views on
the numbers.
The Tax Policy Center sets its
“middle quintile” — third slice
of five — of household income,
including tax-exempt employee
benefits like health insurance,
at $48,300 to $85,600 a year.
But be careful about calling that
middle class, it says — there’s no
formal definition.
Other experts see the middle-
income range at around $44,000
to $72,000 (middle quintile), or
$72,000 to $112,000 (fourth
quintile, both based on 2015
data).
At the high end, Hillary
Clinton and President Barack
Obama, as candidates, defined
middle class as earning up to
$250,000 a year. That raised
eyebrows because it’s in about
the top 5 percent of incomes, and
the two Democrats had pledged
not to raise taxes on the middle
class.
The median, or midpoint,
U.S. household income was
$57,617 last year, according to
the Census Bureau.
House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Kevin Brady, R-Texas, whose panel is charged with writing tax
law, talks to reporters Friday on Capitol Hill in Washington. [J. SCOTT APPLEWHITE/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS]
Trump, in his rallying pitches
for the far-reaching tax over-
haul that is his main legislative
priority, sounds the theme con-
stantly. “We will cut taxes for
hard-working, middle-class
families,” he pledges. “It is time
to ignite America’s middle-class
miracle once again.”
To fill middle-class stockpots,
Trump is promising that the tax
cuts would bring a $4,000 or
$5,000 pay raise annually for
the average family. Skeptical
tax experts and Democrats say
the claim is based on fuzzy math.
Pro-tax cut troops have
fanned out to middle-class
neighborhoods around the
country with a message to voters
on their doorsteps: slashing
taxes for corporations would
unleash an economic bonanza.
The resulting new jobs, faster
growth and ample pay raises
would help them and everyone
else, the residents are told.
“That sort of trickle-down
... is a very hard message,”
says James Thurber, professor
and founder of the Center for
Congressional and Presidential
Studies at American University.
“Because of the burden of gov-
erning, they (the Republicans)
have a problem having an effec-
tive messaging system.”
For the opposition Democrats,
on the other hand, “It’s easier
to have a clear message here
that the tax plan would hurt the
middle class and the working
class,” Thurber suggested.
The nearly $6 trillion tax plan
calls for cutting the corporate
tax rate from 36 percent to 20
percent, reduced taxes for most
individuals, and doubling the
standard deduction used by most
average Americans to $12,000 for
individuals and $24,000 for fam-
ilies. The number of tax brackets
would shrink from seven to three
or four, with respective tax rates
of 12 percent, 25 percent, 35
percent and to be determined.
Inheritance taxes on multimil-
lion-dollar estates would be
repealed.
The middle-class family could
take advantage of a heftier child
tax credit and the extra money
that could come from the bigger
standard deduction.
But there are too many holes
in the spare nine-page plan, like
the income levels tied to each tax
bracket and what might happen
to other deductions used by mid-
dle-class people, to know how it
actually would affect individual
taxpayers and families.
A chief architect of the
plan, House Ways and Means
Committee Chairman Rep.
Kevin Brady, was pressed by
reporters this past week: Will it
truly help the middle class? Can
the Republicans guarantee that
everyone will get a break, that
no ordinary person will end up
paying more?
“The elevator goes down at
every (income) level. ... I can
guarantee that every American
will be better off,” said Brady,
R-Texas. He acknowledged,
though, “It could be that a sin-
gular exception exists.”
But mainly Brady’s answer was
stay tuned: The proposed income
levels to correspond with each
tax bracket will soon be revealed.
That’s where the math comes
in. Under the current regime
of seven brackets, the biggest
group of U.S. taxpayers (about
30 percent) falls in the second-
lowest bracket, paying a 15
percent tax rate. An individual
with taxable annual income
between $9,325 and $37,950 is in
that group. Because it’s the larg-
est group, some might consider
it as standing in for the middle
class.
Some critics of the Republican
plan say that because it would
eliminate the 15 percent bracket,
some people who’ve been taxed
at 15 percent could be pushed
into the next higher bracket, 25
percent.

A man was shot by deputies after
they say he fired at them prompt-

go on lockdown.
Escambia County Sheriff’s
officials say the unidentified man
walked into a Panhandle bank
Friday morning and told employ-
ees to call police or that someone
would get hurt. He fled the bank
and deputies caught up with him
near Redeemer Lutheran Church
and School.
Deputy Chip Simmons said the
suspect fired at deputies and they
returned fire. The suspect was
taken to the hospital. His condi-

The Pensacola News Journal
reports a deputy suffered minor
injuries, but no other details were
released about the incident.
Egypt launched a major shakeup
of its security services on Saturday
in an apparent reaction to an
ambush by militants outside Cairo

staff, while the Interior Ministry,
in charge of police, dismissed
the head of national security, a

occurred.
The move was not unexpected
after officials publicly evoked
potential intelligence failures, lack
of coordination, or incompetence
as playing a factor in the losses, the
latest installment of Egypt’s ongo-

Overshadowed by hor-
rific current events, but still
ongoing, is the war on his-
tory. Previously, I dubbed
Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s
task force to eradicate
Confederate street names as
New York Thought Police.
Some might think this
is out of line, but they
should remember him
saying there is no place
in New York for extreme
conservative thought.
Extreme meaning any
thought not agreeing with
him or the regressive left.
I wonder if his NYTP will
consider the cost and dis-
ruption this would cause.
In addition, he wants to
remove all Confederate
and Columbus memorials.
While he is at it, he should
change our state’s name.

There is much more to

that some Indians were

anguish to the political
correctees. More upset-
ting is the idea that Native
Americans did not always
live in happy harmony
with nature or neighbors.
They made war, took
hostages, kept slaves like
every other ethnic group.
The terms Native
Americans and Indians are
a misnomer. They are not
from India, are no more
native than I am. Their
ancestors immigrated
thousands of years ago.
Mine started only 400 years
ago. My wife’s parents immi-
grated from Italy. She was
born here, so we both are 100
percent native Americans
along with the indigenous
people here when Europeans
and others arrived. While
we honor our heritage, we
are not Euro-Americans
or Italian-Americans, just
plain Americans. No dis-
respect is intended to legal
immigrants or natural-
ized citizens. We are all,
or should be, the same.
There are several thou-
sand Confederate sol-
diers buried in New York
cemeteries. Woodlawn
National Cemetery in
Elmira has 100 burials plus
a large monument to their
memory. Leader George
and his blackshirts should
destroy the memorial and
take away the grave mark-
ers. They would make a great
marble sidewalk at FLCC.
So much work to be done,
so little time. Leader George
and his BS could go west and
take on Mount Rushmore and
Crazy Horse monuments.
Sledgehammers won’t work
here. Need TNT to do the
job right. On the way, they
could stop in Indiana. There
is a large cemetery memorial
to Jefferson C. Davis. Take it
down. Wait a minute, this is
not the Confederacy’s presi-
dent. This man was a Union
general during the Civil War.
No matter, he has that name
and, even worse, his middle
name is — gasp — Columbus.
Questions — I receive a
Civil War history maga-
zine. Occasionally it has a
Confederate officer on its
cover. Under Cuomo’s NYTP
rules, will it have to be mailed
in a plain brown wrapper lest
it upset a postal worker? I
have a CD of Civil War songs.
A few are Confederate,
“Dixie,” “Goober Peas,” etc.
Will I have to keep my win-
dow closed lest some passer-
by become traumatized?
Will the Genesee Country
Village have to eliminate its
Civil War re-enactment?
Can’t have Confederate
re-enactors there so it would
be one-sided with just the
Union. When Mr. Payne and
other like-minded academ-
ics cash their taxpayer-
funded paychecks, do they
turn down $1, $2 and $20
bills? After all, they have
images of three slave owner
presidents: Washington,
Jefferson and Jackson.
Maybe the first two could
be eliminated and replaced
with a Hillary $3 bill.
Readers, are you getting
the idea that all of this is just
plain asinine and stupid?
Have you ever wondered
where all these protest-
ers left or right come from?
Don’t they have jobs or go to
college? Are they just wait-
ing around for free every-
thing from Bolshevik Bernie?
You may think I favor
the Confederate cause, the
KKK or other like-minded
groups. Nope, despise them
all along with political cor-
rectness. I favor history
and truth, warts and all.
Why can’t people like FDR,
Washington and Jefferson be
honored for their good deeds
along with being aware of
their misdeeds. People like
Cuomo and Payne want
you to think only as they
think. Their motto — “No
thoughts but my thoughts.”
P.S: Don’t ask Cuomo or
Sen. Schumer about this or
anything else. All you will
get back is a generic politi-
cal email thanking you and
saying how hard they are
working to look out for your
welfare, just no answers.

Canandaigua Boathouse Owners
honor former city mayor
By Martha Potter
O
n Saturday, Oct.
14, members of the
Canandaigua Boathouse
Owners Association and Mayor
Ellen Polimeni came together
on the City Pier with Darryl
Coleates Kramer and her hus-
band, George, and son, James,
to dedicate a plaque in honor of
Darryl’s father, Earl Coleates.
Earl was former mayor of the
city of Canandaigua and found-
ing president of the Boathouse
Owners Association. Earl
passed away on July 12 of this
year. Many may not know that
without the dedication and
unwavering determination of
Coleates, the City Pier boat-
houses would most likely not
be in existence today. As stated
in the Daily Messenger on Sept.
13, 1967, “A group of owners
of boathouses on the city pier
last night attended a meet-
ing of the Common Council to
protest a recommendation by
the City Planning Commission
that the boathouses be razed by
Dec. 31, 1968.” When Coleates
learned of the intended plans by
a developer to have the boat-
houses razed, he quickly jumped
into action. He organized the
boathouse owners, and formed
the Canandaigua Boathouse
Owners Association that still
exists today. The owners paid
dues, hired a lawyer, and Earl
personally attended every city
planning commission meeting
where the boathouses would
be discussed. He wrote letters
to government officials, and
did all he could to preserve the
boathouses. Thankfully, Earl’s
efforts and those of his fellow
boathouse owners paid off. Not
The need for a real-life spam filter
Benjamin Wachs
Question: Does your
spam filter interfere with
your right to free speech?
It’s hard to remember now
what a nightmare spam email
was, but not long ago it could
so clog up your inbox that it
rendered email itself virtu-
ally unusable. Fortunately,
people figured out a way — not
a perfect way, but still a mostly
right one — to filter out emails
that were simply useless to any
worthwhile communication.
Similar question: Does a “do
not call” list for telemarket-
ers interfere with your free
speech? Because we’re entering
another epidemic of robo-sales
calls, and it’s reaching the point
where a number of people,
myself included, simply won’t
answer the phone if it’s from a
number we don’t already know.
I would suggest that spam
filters and “do not call” lists don’t
interfere with free speech. Just
the opposite — they enhance it,
because they make it more likely
that a stranger who actually has
something meaningful to say
to someone will get through.
There’s a law of economics,
Gresham’s law, which is that
“bad money drives out good.”
If two currencies are given a
similar face value by law, then
the less valuable one will drive
the more valuable one out of
existence. A similar effect is at
work in free speech; in an envi-
ronment where there is no bias
in favor of truthful speech, the
more people who communicate
in bad faith, the less possible it

only are the boathouses still
standing today, but in 1990 the
boathouses and finger piers
were designated by the City
Council as historic structures.
Additionally, Coleates took it
upon himself to “look after” the
City Pier. There is a lamp post
that sits at the end of the City
Pier, and atop the lamp post
sits a replica of a lighthouse.
Being the skilled welder he was,
Earl personally designed and
made the lighthouse lamp at
his own expense. He felt it was
important for those out on the
lake at night to have a beacon
of sorts as a reference point so
the boaters would know where
the pier was. If you’ve ever been
on a boat and driven past the
City Pier, you may have noticed
metal rods placed in between
the wall sections of the Pier.
Like the lighthouse lamp, those
rods were made and installed, at
his own expense, by Coleates.
Earl felt it was important for
anyone who may accidentally
fall in the lake to have something
to hold onto until help could
arrive. Earl also worked with the
Boathouse Owners Association
to design and erect a histori-
cal sign on the pier which tells
the history of the boathouses.

is for people communicating in
good faith to be heard at all.
One of the astonishing
realities of our current political
moment is the extent to which
people are speaking in bad faith,
either out-and-out lying or
because they are incapable of
the attention span necessary to
hold on to any kind of truth.
This seems, at first glance,
like a partisan issue. The same
Republican Congress that said
there would be “death panels”
for “Obamacare,” which we
can surely agree never hap-
pened, has out-and-out lied
about the health care bills it was
proposing and is now out-and-
out lying about its tax plan.
And it’s true that, indeed,
Republican office holders are now
so cynical as to have no relation-

Democrats can be wrong — oh

the Republicans won’t tell; there

The family of Earl Coleates
attends a dedication ceremony
on City Pier to honor his work to
save boathouses in Canandaigua.
Coleates was an individual
who our community was
blessed to have. He was always
thinking of the good of others
and, as Mayor Ellen Polimeni
shared, Earl consistently vis-
ited her on Saturdays during
her open meeting sessions
because he’d have “a plan” to
share with her; something he
felt needed to be done for the
good of the city residents.
So if you happen to be on the
City Pier sometime, take time to
stop and admire the lighthouse
lamp, and read the plaque at
the base of the lamp dedicated
to Coleates. The Canandaigua
Boathouse Owners Association
will be forever grateful to Earl,
and we’re sure the many tour-
ists, artists and photogra-
phers who visit our city each
year are as equally grateful.
A special thank you goes out
to Joe Cunningham and Russ

government itself; they should
have a bias in favor of facts. And,
naturally, the Congressional
Budget Office should do the
research necessary to say what
impact a law will actually have.
Institutions like these — uni-
versities, the press, the CBO
— were all the equivalent of
democracy’s spam filters, not
censoring anyone, but serving
as screens to only let accurate
information through so that the
whole purpose of free speech,
a robust and honest debate of
issues and values in the public
square, was possible at all for
people acting in good faith.
Unfortunately, in this time of
blatant hypocrisy and weakened
civic institutions, those insti-
tutional practices favoring the
honest and the factual in civic
life have broken down. And, let
us be clear, many of the wounds
universities and the press have
suffered were self-inflicted.
We’re now losing a vital func-
tion we never really knew they
served, and we need it back.
Government censorship is
never acceptable, but it turns
out we really do need institu-
tions that privilege fact-based
and good-faith efforts at com-
munication over everything else.
And that these institutions can’t
be primarily market-driven,
because the market doesn’t
recognize “true” or “false,”
just “profitable” and “not.”
I don’t know what new ver-
sions of these institutions look
like in the 21st century, but
it turns out that the benefits
of free speech to democracy
require spam filters, and we
need to build civic institu-
tions with that purpose again.

Bob Chavez
The Section V tourna-
ments for the fall season
are nearing their end points
for soccer and football, just
heating up for other sports
and are distant memories
for others, like tennis.
It’s an exciting time of
the season for high school
sports with plenty of highs
and lows. It’s great to watch
local athletes celebrate post-
season victories and can be
downright wrenching to see
postseason tears after a loss.
High school sports often is a
predictable world. Especially
during the regular season
when league schedules give us
unmatched teams and the out-
comes are rarely questioned.
That’s what makes the
postseason so exciting, and so
painful, because things don’t
always go according to plan.
Upsets happen and teams click
at exactly the right time.
From this perspective, the
postseason certainly does keep
us on our toes. Schedules are
day to day depending on game
outcomes. And after going
two months with a steady diet
of results to report each day
and keeping track of more
than 50 local teams, we all of
a sudden find ourself with just
half a dozen or so to track.
But the end of a season is
clear signal for one of our
favorite traditions here

Saturday’s Class AA semifinal
matchup between third-seeded
Aquinas and second-seeded
Victor was a matchup between
two of the most prominent foot-
ball programs in Section V.
On Saturday evening at SUNY
Brockport, the matchup proved to
match the hype leading into it, as
the contest was a back-and-forth
defensive struggle. In the end, it
was the Little Irish who came out
on top with a 13-9 victory over the
Blue Devils on Saturday.
The only touchdown for the
Blue Devils came in the first
quarter, when Kordell Jackson
returned a fumble 40 yards to the
end zone to cut Aquinas’ lead to
7-6. The other other points for the
Blue Devils were a 30-yard field
goal in the second quarter by Sam
Castiglia, which was set up by a
Kordell Jackson interception.

In a doubles match, Emily
Stanley and Sarah Marro of
Victor defeated Alina Galyon
and Claire Loughlin of Seton
Catholic Central 1-6, 6-2,
6-3.
Stanley and Marro will
next play this afternoon in the
quarterfinals against Katerina
Atallah and Maggie Bonomo
of Fayetteville-Manilus.
all-time Section V record
of 195, set by Whitesville’s
Stephany Ellison in 2010.
Considering DeLyser
is just a sophomore, I like
her odds of breaking that
Section V record. The
state record of 234 seems
well within reach as well.
***
Finally, the weather
is starting to cool and
that can mean only
one awesome thing. 
Well, yeah, the first
day of practice for winter
sports is about a week
away (Nov. 6). But even
better, the rut is about to
kick in for deer hunters.
Good luck out there
and remember, be safe.

National parks may turn to visitors for more funds
Len Lisenbee
A lot of the various topics I
cover in this space are prone to
varying opinions. One example
would be giving taxpayer dollars
for welfare to individuals who
are perfectly able to work. Some
will say that is a humane thing
to do while others resent paying
money to keep lazy people poor.
Which brings me to today’s
lead. There are 59 parks in the
National Park Service’s (NPS)
quiver. And those pristine
areas desperately need more
money in order to make needed
repairs. But the federal budget
is now being squeezed after
the almost unlimited spend-
ing of the last administration.
Therefore the only real answer
is to increase “user fees.”
So the NPS announced on
Oct. 24 that it is consider-
ing raising entry fees at 17
of the most popular parks
during peak visitation sea-
son. Future generations are
relying on that agency.
Here is a list of the affected
parks: Grand Canyon,
Yosemite, Yellowstone,
Zion, Utah’s Arches, Bryce
Canyon, Canyonlands and
Zion parks, California’s
Virginia bike trail draws an
autumn crowd for family fun
By Karen Testa
Associated Press
DAMASCUS, Virginia — It
was an invitation even teen-
agers who had hoped to be
watching college football or
playing video games couldn’t
resist: a mountain bike ride —
all downhill.
Visitors to the Virginia
Creeper Trail will find a
remarkably family-friendly
ride, adaptable to any skill level,
and with scenery to hold any-
one’s attention. With its broad
paths and wide curves, the
Creeper encourages riders to
take it at any comfortable pace,
with plenty of opportunities for
breaks along the way.
The trail runs about 34 miles
(55 km) from Whitetop Station
in Whitetop, Virginia (about a
mile or 1.6 km shy of the North
Carolina border) into Abingdon,
Virginia. But its most popular
segment is the first 17 miles (27
km) from Whitetop to Damascus,
on a stone dust and gravel trail
that allows bikers to reap the
benefits of gravity on a gorgeous,
woodsy path over dozens of tres-
tles and bridges back into town.
At least a half-dozen out-
fitters in the area rent bikes
(including some with “comfort
seats” for a slight upcharge) and
provide shuttles to Whitetop
Station. The shuttle trip up the
twisting and turning mountain
roadway — where speed limits
reduce at several places to 20
mph (32 kph) — takes a bit more
than an hour from Abingdon
and about 40 minutes from
Damascus. It’s well worth the
$25 fee per rider.
The Virginia Creeper Trail near Damascus, Va., stretches nearly 34 miles
and is a popular downhill route with stone dust and gravel trails suitable
to riders of nearly any biking ability. [AP PHOTO/KAREN TESTA]
Sequoia & Kings Canyon and
Joshua Tree parks, Montana’s
Glacier; Wyoming’s Grand
Teton, Washington’s Mount
Rainier and Olympic, as well
as Shenandoah in Virginia,
Acadia in Maine, Rocky
Mountain in Colorado
and Denali in Alaska.
The proposed fees would
jump to $70 per vehicle, $50
per motorcycle, and $30 per
person during each park’s
peak visitation season, which
most commonly runs from
May to September. Revenue
would be used to restore and
improve facilities, infra-
structure and visitor services,
with an emphasis on deferred
maintenance projects.
I am not certain about the
time frame for those proposed
fee increases. If that is $70
per day per vehicle, I believe
that increase is (or will be)
downright punitive to many
people. But time will tell on
that one. Our government,
in the past, has managed to
squander billions of dollars,
and I believe the Congress
could find a chunk of money
to repair our national parks.  sustain some bleeding injuries.
And keep in mind that our
park system is showing a
substantial increase in tour-
ists visits. In 2016 the NPS
reported a record for recre-
ational visits - for the third
year in a row! Last year there
were over 331 million visitors.
And this year the totals are
Note to procrastinators: Book
ahead during busy times, like
fall foliage season when rental
shops sell out on weekends.
Once at Whitetop Station,
riders claim their bikes and
head out. On a recent October
weekend, with low humidity,
moderate temperatures and
near peak foliage, the trail was
heavily traveled and sometimes
crowded with bikers rang-
ing from toddlers in trailers to
grandparents. But calling out a
simple, “On your left!” got most
of the slower riders to ease to the
side and allow others to pass.
Still, there was no hurry.
Speed would be contrary to the
spirit of the Creeper.
History of The Creeper
The Creeper began as a Native
American footpath. Later it was
used by colonists and settlers
including Daniel Boone, according
to a history provided by the U.S.
Forest Service. By the early 1900s,
it was a rail line, where steam
engines moved coal, lumber, pas-
sengers and other supplies from
Abingdon to North Carolina.
The nickname, the Virginia
Creeper, is said to come from
the super slow speed at which
the early steam locomotives
navigated the many twists
and turns and chugged up the
mountain pass.
But the rail line struggled, and
after decades of failing to turn
a profit, the railroad company
petitioned to abandon the line.
The Creeper saw its last train run
in the 1970s, and the U.S. Forest
Service secured much of the land
and started removing the track.

All deer hunters, take
note. While it is anything but
common, every deer hunter
should be aware of any deer
that appears to be acting
abnormally. There could be
extreme danger that should
be avoided at all costs.
Two weeks ago in Troy,
Tony Remillard was taking
out the trash when he sud-
denly sensed that he wasn’t
alone. As he turned around
he observed a 10-point buck
standing just a few feet
away. But instead of run-
ning away, that big deer
charged and attacked him.  Here’s a story that caught
Fortunately the attack did
not last too long, and the inju-
ries sustained by the home-
owner were not serious. The
main reason for Remillard’s
good luck was that he was tak-
ing out some old couch cush-
ions at the time, and the buck
was actually goring those over-
sized pillows instead of the guy
carrying them. Still, this guy is
now undergoing rabies preven-
tion treatment because he did
Shortly after the attack
concluded, the buck ran off.
Officers found it just a short
distance away, very dead.
And the Rensselaer County
Health Department later
confirmed the bizarre news
that the deer was indeed rabid.

The New York State Department
of Environmental Conservation
announced that remaining Deer
Management Permits (DMPs)
in several Wildlife Management
Units (WMUs) will be available
to hunters beginning Nov. 1.
Deer Management Permits
allow hunters to harvest antler-
less deer and are issued for
specific WMUs to control deer
populations. Hunters may apply
for up to two additional DMPs
on a first-come, first-served
basis in these WMUs at any DEC

Nov. 1. Applications must be
made at license issuing outlets.

many rabid deer reported.
I am aware of only three
such infected deer during
the past 10 years. And there
have been at least two more
such reports from the north-
ern tier of Pennsylvania.
But rarity or not, the potential
for encountering a rabid deer,
or a rabid animal of any species
for that matter, is real. Any per-
son observing an animal that is
not acting within “species char-
acter” (a nocturnal mammal out

my attention. An unnamed
72-year-old hunter, hunting
with a crossbow, was attacked
by a whitetail doe he had shot
and wounded in Fond du Lac
County, Wis. He was trailing
it through some thick brush
when the deer apparently got
up, leaped at him, and then
attacked him rather forcefully.  with those details other than

He had a cell phone, and
managed to call for assis-

responders located and trans-
ported him to a local hospital.
And there’s one other inter-
esting fact here. The deer,
which was apparently not
seriously wounded, got away
after getting its revenge.

And here’s an interest-
ing item that actually caused
me to laugh out loud. Recent
research indicated that veg-
anism and vegetarianism are
usually just passing fads. 
Psychologist Hal Herzog led
a research program that deter-
mined that virtually every
person who voluntarily tries to
avoid meat, either by select-
ing a vegetarian or vegan diet,
eventually returns to meat. 
The study found that at
least five out of every six
people who gave up eating
meat eventually came back to
eat it again. This was found
to be the case for around
85 percent of vegetarians
and 70 percent of vegans.
This study had a lot of
side notes relating to politi-
cal leanings of individuals
who try various meatless
diets. It also broke down
numbers with respect to
gender. I won’t bore you
to note one single finding:
“Political liberals who gave
to it again actually remained
more politically aligned with
conservative vegetarians.”
Now, that makes perfectly
good sense to me, I think?

stock the shelves. Call 800-

MUSIC&BOOKS
Prophets hope to be ‘soundtrack for the resistance’
By Mark Kennedy
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — When it
comes to protest music,
there’s the subtle stuff and
the really angry stuff. The
all-star band Prophets of Rage
takes the latter to a whole
new grab-you-by-the-throat
level. Their volcanic self-
titled debut album tackles
racism, poverty, drones,
homelessness, police injustice,
marijuana legalization, capi-
talism, national borders, the
wealth gap and gun violence.
“In this day and age, there
is no other band doing what
we’re doing musically,
no other band doing what
we’re doing politically. That
lane is open,” said guitar-
ist and leader Tom Morello.
That the Prophets of Rage
mix social consciousness
with a fusion of rap, metal
and punk shouldn’t come as
a surprise. After all, the band
is composed of Chuck D and
his Public Enemy bandmate
DJ Lord, B-Real of Cypress
Hill and the backbone of Rage
Against the Machine — bass-
ist Tim Commerford, drum-
mer Brad Wilk and Morello.
It’s a combustible cock-
tail, combining the guys who
created the anthem “Fight
the Power” with the mak-
ers of “Calm Like a Bomb.”
It’s also a blend of long-time
friends and collaborators
who look a lot like America.
“It’s a band that preaches
solidarity and we exhibit it
among ourselves. It’s a band
that preaches racial har-
mony and we exhibit it among
ourselves,” Morello said.
The band was formed in
secret, practicing deep in the
San Fernando Valley ahead
of a summer 2016 tour. They
played their first show on May
21, 2016, at the famed Whisky
A Go Go in Los Angeles and
acknowledge the cement
hadn’t hardened yet even
four days before that show.
“We knew we had some-
thing probably in the last
few weeks of our rehearsal,”
said B-Real. “We knew it
looked great on paper, it
sounded even better when
you say it, but we knew we
had to put some work in.”
They mostly played songs
from the three bands’ back
catalogs until returning from
their tour. Then they decided
to see if they could come up
with new stuff, hoping to create
two songs a day. In a week they
had five or six, and even more
the next week. “Then we lis-
ten back to it and we were like,
‘This is pretty damn good,’”
said Morello. “Chuck was like,
‘I respond to this one.’ And I
was like, ‘This riff might make Tim Commerford, from left, B-Real, Brad Wilk, DJ Lord, Tom Morello and Chuck D of Prophets of Rage pose for a
a better chorus here.’ And then, portrait Sept. 12 in New York to promote their self-titled debut album. [ANDY KROPA/INVISION/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS]

BOOK REVIEW
Stunned and confused, yet

The story of a female codebreaker intrigued, Smith agreed. It

By Kim Curtis
The Associated Press
Her story is so surprising
it’s not only hard to under-
stand why most Americans
have never heard of her, but
it’s somewhat of a challenge
to believe it at all. In “The
Woman Who Smashed Codes:
A True Story of Love, Spies,
and the Unlikely Heroine
Who Outwitted America’s
Enemies,” journalist Jason
Fagone recreates a world and
a cast of characters so utterly
fascinating they will inhabit
the psyches of its readers long
after the book has been read.
Elizebeth Smith, a Quaker
girl from a small town in
Indiana, first fought against
societal norms by earning a
college degree against her
father’s will. When she was
23, she railed against a pre-
sumed lifetime of teaching,
followed by marriage and chil-
dren and headed to Chicago.
Through happenstance,
she met George Fabyan, a
wealthy and eccentric busi-
nessman who owned a com-
pound named Riverbank.
There, scientists, inventors
and intellectuals holed up to
study and learn, experiment
and discover — all funded by
Fabyan’s inherited fortune.
Fabyan hired Smith
as his assistant.
“Will you come to
Riverbank and spend the
night with me,” he asked
upon first meeting her.
was 1916. And so it begins.
During her four years at
Riverbank, Smith met and
married William Friedman.
Fagone chronicles the couple’s
lives and accomplishments
against the backdrop of the
birth and growth of the mod-
ern intelligence community.
His research is exhaustive and
his storytelling, spellbinding. “The Woman Who

NY boosts drone industry
with testing corridor
By Mary Esch
The Associated Press
ROME, N.Y. — Envisioning
a day when millions of drones
will buzz around delivering
packages, watching crops or
inspecting pipelines, a coali-
tion is creating an airspace
corridor in upstate New York
where traffic management
systems will be developed and
unmanned aircraft can undergo
safety and performance testing.
The unmanned aircraft
traffic management corridor,
jump-started by a $30 million
state investment, will extend 50
miles (80 kilometers) west over
mostly rural farmland from
Griffiss International Airport, a
former Air Force base in Rome
that is already home to NASA-
affiliated drone testing.
It will be equipped with radar
and ground-based sensors to
enable what Democratic Gov.
Andrew Cuomo boasted would
be “the most advanced drone
testing in the country.”
The first segment of the
corridor was launched last
month by the Northeast UAS
Airspace Integration Research
Alliance, a coalition of private
and public entities and aca-
demic institutions in New York
and Massachusetts created to
establish Griffiss as a drone
industry incubator.
The airport is one of seven
places around the country
designated by the Federal
Aviation Administration as an
unmanned aircraft systems test

How medical ID theft happens, and how to stop it
John Ninfo
B
efore returning to a
few more teacher “I
decided that I would
actually listen and follow
the advice” stories, I want
to look at medical identity
theft. To be honest, before
the Equifax hack, just like
with false tax returns identity
theft, I had heard about it,
but I never thought too much
about it, and I never really
knew how it worked. Turns
out that just in 2013, over
1.84 million Americans were
victimized by medical iden-
tity theft, and the number
is increasing, as more and
more of our medical records
have become electronic.
According to bankrate.
com, medical identity theft
occurs when someone uses
your personal information,
like your Social Security
number or health insur-
ance ID, to obtain medical
services or care, to submit
false claims, or to buy drugs
or expensive medical equip-
ment (like an electronic
wheelchair), often for resale.
How does it happen that
thieves or purchasers of your
medical information can do
this, even having surgery
done? Apparently, insur-
ance companies don’t always
verify claims in advance,
much like, as we discussed in
the last column, the taxing
site. Other sites are in Virginia,
North Dakota, New Mexico,
Texas, Nevada and Alaska.
Testing at the airport now is
restricted to a five-mile radius,
in part because of Federal
Aviation Administration rules
that normally limit flying
beyond the operator’s line of
sight, except in special circum-
stances, such as disaster area
surveys. That keeps compa-
nies like Amazon and Walmart
from using drones for package
delivery.
Companies will be able to use
the corridor to test hardware in
airspace where manned aircraft
also fly. Part of the concept is
to help NASA to test technol-
ogy that will allow the FAA to
create regulations opening the
national airspace to a commer-
cial drone industry.
“Clients will eventually be
able to fly beyond the visual line
of sight in the corridor testing
their technology,” said Tony
Basile, NUAIR’s vice president
for operations.
In addition to support-
ing development of drone air
traffic control rules and sys-
tems, NUAIR helps unmanned
aircraft service companies
demonstrate their wares to
clients and provides drone
pilot training to state forest
rangers, law enforcement and
others.
“We’re evaluating aircraft
today, but the ultimate goal
is, how do we operate in a
beyond-line-of-sight capa-
bility,” said Glen Davis, safety

international).

$7.2 million ($14.3 million
international).
5. “Only the Brave,” $6 million.
6. “The Foreigner,” $5.5 million
PERSONAL FINANCE
authorities don’t always
cross check those W-2’s
and 1099’s before they send
out a refund. Apparently,
with respect to the theft of
care, it happens primarily in
emergency rooms and urgent
care facilities where there
are no referrals necessary,
or there may be fraudulent
referrals, and with those
on Medicare and Medicaid.
Drugs and medical equip-
ment purchases are easier
to understand. At any rate, I
plan on personally surveying
a lot of doctors and medi-
cal and hospital staff in the
future, and then revisiting
this issue in a future column.
I would like to think that
the taxing authorities and
the health care industry are
doing things every day to
reduce these identity theft
problems, and I believe that
they in fact are. The bot-
tom line is that this is a
serious problem for many
Americans, both financially,
because of false claims and
billings that a victim has to
deal with, but also because
of possible serious inac-
curacies becoming a part
of your medical records.
As with any identity theft,
it is critical that you protect
your Social Security num-
ber and your medical ID and
insurance information. Also,
carefully check that periodic
claims explanation that you
receive from your insurance
company or other medical
provider, and any medical
billings you receive. Lastly,
check your credit reports for
any false billings, and if any-

Electric venture company
that was at Griffiss this week
to test a 6-foot-(1.8-meter)
long unmanned helicop-
ter for pipeline and refinery
inspections.
New York officials expect
the Griffiss drone research
initiative to help lure tech
companies to central New
York, which has suffered eco-
nomically with the decline of
manufacturing.
Cuomo has pledged up
to $250 million under his
Upstate Revitalization
Initiative to foster growth of
the unmanned aerial vehicle
industry.
A key player in that ini-
tiative is Syracuse-based
Gryphon Sensors, which used
$5 million in state funding to
develop a van equipped with
radar to spot drones up to six
miles away. Gryphon devel-
oped ground-based sensors
and radars that track aircraft
at the NUAIR test site. Like
self-driving cars, unmanned
aircraft will ultimately need
onboard sensors allowing them
to detect and avoid obstacles
including other aircraft, Basile
said. “Once technology has
gotten to that point, the sensor
systems used in this corri-
dor will be repurposed to give
additional coverage around
airports or other places,” he
said. Basile said it will take
about a year to design the cor-
ridor, install sensor equipment
and begin flight testing.

Now for those two addi-
tional “I finally listened”
teacher stories. First, I am
always talking about how
learning about finances,
building good money hab-
its, eliminating or reducing
debt, and using finances
for your benefit, not for
the benefit of the financial
industry, can eliminate a lot
of stress in your life. When I
do that, and talk more about
the importance of “finan-
cial wellness,” I always tell
the story of a high school
teacher who tells his classes
every semester how he finally
“really listened to the Judge.”
He tells them that he made
some sacrifices, and he paid
off his credit card debt, paid
off his mortgage early, and
paid off his boat and truck
loans. He also tells them how
every month he puts a car
loan payment in the bank for
the next car, so that he will
never have another car loan.
He tells them how much
less stress there is in his life
as a result, and that it is a
goal that they should set for
themselves in their futures.
What a great message and
example to the students.
Second, when I talk about
“cash is king,” because people
who use cash make better
and different spending deci-
sions, and spend less, since
they are more connected to
their hard-earned money, I
talk about a college profes-
sor. Every semester she would
tell her college students that
she too finally listened and
A scary
box office
weekend
for all but
Tyler Perry
By Lindsey Bahr
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — It
was a spooky weekend at
the box office for nearly
everyone but Tyler Perry.
Perry’s comedy
sequel “Boo 2! A Madea
Halloween” scared up a
healthy $21.7 million in
its first weekend in the-
aters, but the waters were
rough for other new open-
ers including the disaster
epic “Geostorm,” the
firefighter drama “Only
the Brave” and the crime
thriller “The Snowman.”
Made for a reported $25
million, Perry’s film drew
a mostly older and female
audience, who gave it an
A- CinemaScore. “Boo
2!” did a little less business
than the first film, which
opened to $28.5 million
just last year.
“Given that it’s a sequel,
its performance is at the
higher end of our expec-
tations,” said David Spitz,
who heads up domestic
distribution for Lionsgate.
The studio expects
the film to hold well into
next weekend due to
increased interest because
of Halloween, but it will
also face some competi-
tion with the horror pic
“Jigsaw.”
But a slight drop for
a sequel hardly com-
pares to the catastrophe
of “Geostorm,” a long-
delayed $120 million
disaster epic starring
Gerard Butler that only
managed to open to
$13.3 million from North
American theaters.
took the Judge’s advice. She
said that she committed
herself to use more cash. She
started to carry more cash
all of the time, and to use it
as much as possible, leaving
her cards in her purse except
for bigger purchases. She
started to only use cash at the
grocery store, making out a
list, bringing the cash for the
items, and sticking to it, not
doing any impulse buying
with her cards. She said to
her students that she found
herself saving hundreds of
dollars a month, and it was
not about affordability — she
was not in debt before or
after — but now she has more
money to do other things.
On a final subject, it is
that time again: Halloween.
This year the National Retail
Federation estimates that
Americans will spend a record
9.1 billion, up 8.3 percent from
last year, and once again, they
will spend more than $350
million on pet costumes. If you
will be dressing up your pet,
or you just want to be ready
for what you will be seeing
during this season, here are
some of the top pet costumes:
pumpkin, hot dog, bumblebee,
devil, Batman, ghost, witch,
and Star Wars characters.

The geriatric-care management
field is growing. The Aging Life Care
Association, a trade association for the
industry, reports about 300 new mem-
bers a year.
According to the National Institute on
Aging, geriatric care managers:
• Discuss difficult topics and complex
issues
• Make home visits and suggest needed
services
• Address emotional concerns
• Make short- and long-term plans
• Evaluate in-home care needs
• Select care personnel
• Coordinate medical services
• Evaluate other living arrangements
• Provide caregiver stress relief

possible, for as long as they can,”
said Hankinson, who worked as
a physical-therapy assistant and
medical-equipment and -services
saleswoman for 18 years before
becoming a care manager last year.
Geriatric-care managers can pro-
vide a variety of services, including:
• Reviewing a senior’s liv-
ing situation and recommending
changes, home-care services or
a move to a facility, if needed. In
the event of a move, they can help
determine whether independent
living, assisted living or skilled
nursing care would be best.
• Serving as an extra set of eyes
and ears if an elder is in a long-term-
care facility. That could include
visiting the facility on different
days and times to check on the older
adult’s physical care, emotional
state and social engagement.
• Attending doctor appoint-
ments, helping seniors and their
families communicate with medi-
cal professionals, and making sure
that doctors’ orders are under-
stood and followed. Many care-
management companies employ
nurse advocates to help with this
and other medical-related issues.
• Helping with routine bill-paying
or financial planning for future care.
That could include working with
a person who has power of attor-
ney, an estate-planning lawyer or a
financial planner. Some companies
can hold power of attorney for their
clients or act as guardians or agents.
• Providing support to caregiv-
ers who often try to take on too
much. They also can help families
work through internal conflicts
and differences of opinion about
long-term-care planning. They
should be familiar with local ser-
vices available to seniors and their
caregivers and how to access them.
Not everyone is buying into
the field, however. Some crit-
ics say that private care manag-
ers are expensive: costs can range
between $50 and $200 an hour,
depending on the geographic area.
Many also say that some of the
same services are available for free at
other senior-serving organizations.

Family Jumps To Conclusions

About Woman’s Career Choice
DEAR ABBY: I’m a wom-
an who was honorably dis-
charged from the military
recently and am now in an
electrical construction ap-
prenticeship. I’m starting a
great career in a field I love
that can give me a comfort-
able living without having
to rely on a second job.
My problem is my family.
Most of them are convinced
that I hate men or I wish I
was one. The rest are sure
that I will emasculate any-
one I would start dating.
I’m not a lesbian, and I
like being female. I have
no problem with anyone
who follows different life
paths than mine. My fam-
ily is basing these opinions
purely on what I have cho-
sen to do for work. In their
opinion, because I chose to
work in what is considered
nontraditional employment
for “nice young ladies,” as
they put it, and can work on
my house and car without
extra assistance, it must be
true.
I have tried repeatedly
to explain that what I have
chosen for a living has no
bearing on my gender iden-
tity or my sexual orienta-
tion. They are completely
ignoring anything I have
to say about my life and life
choices. Sometimes I won-
der how I’m even related
to these people. If I were
asked to deploy back to the
war zone, I’d happily leave
tomorrow, because it would
be easier than dealing with
the small-minded, narrow
viewpoints I’m encounter-
ing here at home. -- HOW

TEN?
DEAR HOW: It is beyond
sad that you would find
returning to a war zone
more appealing than deal-
ing with the pressure you’re
receiving because of your
try not to blame your family
for their outdated thinking.
Many people are unaware
that women are now being
trained -- and succeeding
in -- high-paying jobs once
held only by men.
Because your relatives
refuse to believe that you’re
heterosexual, stop wasting
your time trying to convince
them otherwise. Live your
life in an authentic way, and
if you meet a nice man and
decide to settle down with
him, eventually they’ll real-
ize they were mistaken.

DEAR ABBY: I am in my
late 40s and live in New
York City. I was taught to
hold doors open for women
and to allow women to exit
the elevator first. Problem
is, in our lobby there are
two separate glass doors
that must be opened to walk
outside the building. If I let
a woman neighbor leave the
elevator first, she will then
have to open and hold both
doors for me. But I always
feel awkward if I don’t allow
them out first, and I some-
times worry they think I’m
rude for walking ahead.
Sometimes I even want to
explain my actions. I just
figure holding and open-
ing two heavy glass doors is
more polite than allowing
someone to exit the eleva-
tor first. What’s the proper
protocol in a situation like
this? -- A GENTLEMAN
IN NEW YORK
DEAR NEW YORK
GENTLEMAN: While it is
polite for a man to hold a
door open for a woman, it
would also be considered
good manners if she returns
the favor if she’s the first to
reach the lobby door. As to See answers, page 2
the rule of etiquette for el-
evators, the person at the
front of the elevator should
exit first, if the elevator is Sunday, October 29, 2017 sudoku Sunday, October 29, 2017

Grief without * I cut a small square and

relief
Dear Readers: Today’s
SOUND OFF is about the
grieving process when you
lose a pet. -- Heloise
“Dear Heloise: We re-
cently had to have our beau-
tiful 17-year-old black Lab
put to sleep due to kidney
disease. I can’t even begin
to explain the grief and pain
we feel at the loss of this
sweet pet. I just wish people
would stop saying things
such as, ‘You can always get
another dog.’ Yes, we can,
but nothing takes the place
of a beloved pet. Or ‘Time
heals all wounds.’ Sure, but
right now, I’m grieving the
death of my dog, and I don’t
want to hear things like
this.
“I wish people would just
listen when I need to vent
about my sorrow. I don’t
want to hear about the
death of someone else’s pet;
I’m too consumed by my
own loss. Please, just let us
grieve when we lose a dear
pet. Listen without offering
advice, and don’t brush off
our loss, because it’s very
real and very painful to us.”
-- Mavis G., Marietta, Ga.
FAST FACTS
Dear Heloise: I have
some rubber shelf liner left
over, and I’ve found several
more uses for it:
* I cut out a square and
placed it under a sofa
cushion that kept slipping
forward.
* I put it under my pet’s
bedding to keep it from
sliding across the kitchen
floor.
used it to remove pet hair
from my furniture.
* I wrapped a few delicate
things in the liner before
shipping them by mail.

CAST CARE
Dear Heloise: As a
nurse, I’ve seen many casts
put on people who’ve broken
a bone, and there are a few
things we normally tell the
patient to help them avoid
injuries. First, don’t use a
wire hanger or any sharp
object to scratch an itch un-
der the cast. Try sprinkling
baby powder under the
cast. If a cast gets wet, use a
blow-dryer set on low heat
to dry the cast. You also can
use an old sock or knit cap
to keep your toes or fingers
clean and warm. -- Lois G.,
Livonia, Mich.
THE VERY LAST
DROP
Dear Heloise: I gener-
ally buy 32-ounce jars of
mayonnaise, and the last
inch or more is so difficult
to get out. I discovered
that a frosting spatula does
the job easily. -- Leslie W.,
Alexandria, Va.
JIGSAW PUZZLES
Dear Heloise: I make a
lot of jigsaw puzzles. When
I first open the box, I pour
all the pieces into a colan-
der and shake it over the
trash bucket, thus getting
rid of the paper sawdust. --
