Hoffman, Doheny agree on issues but find plenty to debate
Hoffman, Doheny
(Enterprise file photos)
September 2, 2010
PLATTSBURGH — Both Matt Doheny and Doug Hoffman spent a good deal of Wednesday night’s debate arguing about who knew the district’s issues better and would represent it better: Doheny, who has been traveling all over the district and talking to everyone he can since he declared his candidacy in April, or Hoffman, whose campaign hasn’t been as visible but who has lived and run businesses in the North Country for most of his life.

Aliens in Jordan
Tue, April 6, 2010 @ 1:12PM
There have been a few Emptyprize and April Fools stories we have done that people have believed. Just last month, someone stood up at a Saranac Lake village board meeting to explain why they thought it was a bad idea to put the skate park in the middle of Lake Flower. And a few years ago, a few people were very concerned about Donald Trump's plans to build a hotel on Woodruff Street. However, I don't think any of those stories have ever led a town to send out security forces to find alien invade.

Hoffman, Doheny agree on issues, still find plenty to debate
Thu, September 2, 2010 @ 2:11AM
PLATTSBURGH — Both Matt Doheny and Doug Hoffman grew up in New York’s 23rd Congressional District, Doheny in Alexandria Bay and Hoffman in Saranac Lake. Both spent a good deal of Wednesday night’s debate arguing about who knew the district’s issues better and would represent it better — Doheny, who has been traveling all over the district and talking to everyone he can since he declared his candidacy in April, or Hoffman, whose campaign hasn’t been as visible but who has lived and run businesses in the North Country for most of his life. Hoffman referred several times to his work managing his accounting firm, Dragon, Benware, Crowley and Partners, which has several offices in the district, and his work creating other businesses whose profits have helped his children stay in the North Country.

Zebra mussels in Lake Placid
Wed, September 1, 2010 @ 12:12PM
With Labor Day weekend coming up, there’s bound to be lots of boat traffic on area water bodies. Many of these vessels will be from out of town and carrying invasive species from other parts of the state. A recent incident at a boat launch on Lake Placid shows how easily new species can be introduced to Adirondack lakes. The incident that took place on Tuesday, Aug. 24 was captured in a narrative by Watershed Steward Jeff Sann. You can read it below. This particular boat approached the launch much in the same way every boat does. The two gentlemen stepped out of their truck and began preparing the boat for launching. I introduced myself to them and began delivering my message as I have done quite a few times now. I asked them the question "What was the last body of water the boat has been in within the past two weeks?" To which they replied "Saratoga Lake.

Pat Buchanan and the mosque
Tue, August 10, 2010 @ 7:37PM
Oh, do I ever miss the days of William Rusher and his well written articles about conservativism. His was not the type of fire and brimstone, mud slinging, dirty pool hatred of many of today’s conservative writers. Rusher used to occupy a spot in the Press Republican opposite a Democratic writer. Often, Rusher was much less partisan and looked internally rather than blame and name call. Unfortunately, his replacement is Byron York, whose literary pedigree stems from one fact – he is right leaning and can only see hatred for the left. A couple weeks ago he wrote what passed for an article about Al Gore’s supposed sexual misconduct. He spent almost the whole column quoting only from her statements and saying it was a pretty convincing story. Except that no one else believed it. Not the police, not newspapers, not even titillating talk shows.
