Gibson Brothers lead IBMA award nominations By Andy Flynn

andy@denpubs.com CHAMPLAIN Ñ Ellenburg Depot natives Eric and Leigh Gibson and their bluegrass band Ñ The Gibson Brothers Ñ topped the International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA) award nominations this year with eight, IBMA officials announced Aug. 14 at their Nashville headquarters. They were followed by Balsam Range with seven nominations, and The Boxcars, Alison Krauss & Union Station and Russell Moore & IIIrd Time Out with six nominations each. The Gibson Brothers are the 2012 IBMA Entertainers of the Year and walked away with the 2012 Gospel Recorded Performance of the Year for Ò Singing As We Rise,Ó recorded with Ricky Skaggs and written by Joe Newberry. This is the latest string of successes for the northern New York band, which debuted on the IBMA scene in 1998 as Emerging Artists of the Year and garnered other awards, such as Song of the Year and Gospel Recorded Performance of the Year in 2010 for “Ring the Bell,” Vocal Group of the Year in 2011, and Album of the Year in 2011 for Ò Help My Brother.Ó This year, they made the IBMA press release headlines, which were picked up by all the ma-

jor country and bluegrass music news sources. Ò IÕ m completely honored and overwhelmed,Ó Eric Gibson said between sets at the Aug. 17 Champlain Day concert. Ò I never dreamed that weÕ d lead the pack. I didnÕ t know that was true until I saw CMT.com and Billboard.com.Ó The Saturday night event Ñ two hours of free music Ñ was homecoming of sorts for the band, as many friends and family traveled to Champlain to see their performance. You couldnÕ t throw a biscuit without hitting someone with a Gibson Brothers ball cap or T-shirt. And, true to their Entertainer of the Year status, they gave as spirited a performance in the Champlain town highway garage as they did July 4 on the Ryman Auditorium stage in Nashville. The eight IBMA nominations were: Entertainer of the Year, Vocal Group of the Year, Album of the Year (“They Called It Music”), Song of the Year (“They Called It Music”) and Gospel Recorded Performance of the Year (“Home on the River”). The newest band member, Jesse Brock, earned a nomination for Mandolin Player of the Year, which he won in 2009. And Eric Gibson received two nominations, as songwriter for Song of the Year “They Called It Music” (along with co-writer Joe Newberry) and in the Bluegrass Songwriter category. Ò The songwriter of the year surprised me,Ó

Eric said. Ò I thought we had a pretty good year and weÕ d come away from a few nominations, but I didnÕ t think in so many categories. And I thought maybe weÕ d have a chance to be nominated again as Entertainers (of the Year) seeing as we won it last year. I donÕ t think we did anything to hurt our chances this year ... ItÕ s good for the band just to be nominated. Everybody always says that, but itÕ s true. I think promoters look at that, look at the nominations as they plan for next year. I think it means weÕ re in pretty good shape.Ó The Gibson Brothers band includes Eric Gibson, of Brainardsville; Leigh Gibson, of Schenectady; Mike Barber (upright bass), of Jericho; Clayton Campbell (fiddle), of Nashville; and Jesse Brock (mandolin), of Bowling Green, Ky. They will next appear in the Adirondack region on Saturday, Sept. 14 at the second annual Plattsburgh Bluegrass Festival, at the Clinton County Fairgrounds in Morrisonville. Also nominated for Entertainer of the Year were Balsam Range, Blue Highway, Dailey &

Vincent and The Del McCoury Band. Also nominated for Vocal Group of the Year were Balsam Range, Blue Highway, Dailey & Vincent and Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver. Awards are voted on by the professional membership of the IBMA, the trade association for the bluegrass music industry. Results of the balloting will be revealed at the IBMA Awards on Thursday, Sept. 26, hosted by the Steep Canyon Rangers. The Awards Show is the centerpiece of World of Bluegrass Week, to be held Sept. 24-28 in Raleigh, N.C. The IBMA Awards Show will be broadcast live on Sirius XM Satellite Radio (Bluegrass Junction) and syndicated to more than 300 U.S. markets and 14 foreign networks, thanks to the sponsorship of John Pearse Strings, Compass Records, Deering Banjos, the International Bluegrass Music Museum, BluegrassToday.com and Music City Roots.

What Adirondack bird is two feet tall and six feet wide? Only an osprey could get away with these dimensions. It’s one of the Park’s largest birds of prey (well, actually, that’s the wing span). Excellent divers, ospreys catch and eat fish using long, hooked talons. Plunging from dizzying heights, ospreys can hit the water hard enough to submerge their bodies looking for a meal. The pesticide DDT nearly wiped out ospreys www.exploringnature.org between 1940 and 1970; New York only banned DDT in 1971. The Forest Preserve served as a buffer, so ospreys could survive and help repopulate the rest of the state. They nest at the top of dead trees or utility poles and never use cell phones.

Seton Catholic readies for milestone By Shawn Ryan

P L AT T S B U R G H Ñ T h i s year, Seton Catholic Central will celebrate its 25th anniversary, and brain-storming sessions have already begun as to how best to commemorate that milestone. High on the list of priorities was the idea that any commemoration should involve some form of service to the community. The idea of a Ò 25th Anniversary Challenge,Ó where each current Seton family will be responsible for providing 25 hours of community service during the course of the school year, was well received by the planning committee. Twenty-five percent of that service would have to be completed by someone other than the student, in order to involve the families as well. A reception for past students and teachers, highlighting a special event or person from each of the past 25 years, is also being considered. Seton was founded in 1989 when St. JohnÕ s Academy and Mount Assumption Institute merged. Seton is named after Saint Elizabeth Seton, who founded the first free American catholic school, and is the first American-born saint of the Roman Catholic Church. Anyone wishing to help with the 25th anniversary, or with ideas to contribute, can contact Darcy Ziemer at dziemer@setoncatholic.net.

NCCC proposal exciting Hazy, lazy days of summer N

orth Country Community CollegeÕ s proposal to create a applied technology center in the former LoweÕ s building in Ticonderoga is drawing rave reviews Ñ as it should. At the direction of President Dr. Steve Tyrell, NCCC has submitted an application for a feasibility study that could lead to the vacant store becoming a vibrant center of education and commerce. It will be some time before we know if the project becomes reality, but just the proposal has people throughout the area excited. If the project becomes reality, NCCC will expand its degree programs in Ticonderoga. Specific curriculum have not yet been identified, but Tyrell expects an emphasis on green technology and middle skills. Middle skills are those requiring more than a high school degree, but not a four-year degree. The proposed applied technology center could serve up to 450 students and could open in the fall of 2016. It will have no impact on the existing Ticonderoga campus or its programs, Tyrell said. The Ticonderoga program would be based on a similar program at SUNY-Alfred, where Tyrell worked before coming to NCCC. The Alfred program offers college-level carpentry, masonry, electrician and other construction trade training. It also integrates energy conservation, alternative energy use and sustainable building design education and training into its academic programs, focusing on green building technologies in New York State. Jim Major, chairman of the Ticonderoga Revitalization Alliance, estimates the additional NCCC students in Ticonderoga would add $1.5 million to the local economy through retail and food purchases. But thereÕ s more. The project could mean jobs for area residents. Tyrell said the START-UP NY program could lead to businesses locating in Ticonderoga. That state program gives tax breaks to businesses aligned with the academic mission of a college campus, college or university. Participating companies in START-UP NY will not pay any taxes for 10 years. Employees in participating companies will pay no income taxes for the first five years. Ticonderoga Supervisor Deb Malaney said there have been discussions about including biomass energy resources in the curriculum. Biomass energy is the use of organic materials as a source of fuel. Wood is the main source of biomass energy. Malaney believes Ticonderoga would have the potential to attract biomass energy firms through the NCCC applied technology center and the START-UP NY program. Ò With this, the potential for additional incubator businesses would be very promising,Ó Malaney said. Ò We hope this will allow us to attract additional businesses in the biomass energy industry. We believe those companies will locate near an applied technology center specializing in biomass energy.Ó Malaney said there have already been preliminary discussions with such a company about locating in Ticonderoga. She declined to name the firm. Ò For me, this is the most exciting potential project that TRA has been involved with,Ó Major said. Malaney, Major and other Ticonderoga representatives toured the Alfred facility this spring. Ò TRA visited Alfred to learn about their very successful trade school program,Ó Major said. Ò We learned that they have about 800 students being taught all of the trades from carpentry to electrical engineering. Their students mostly come from the western portion of New York leaving a void of services for the eastern half of New York and surrounding states and Canada.Ó It’s hoped an applied technology center in Ticonderoga can fill that void. Tyrell believes the proposed Ticonderoga applied technology center is realistic. Ò IÕ m optimistic this will come to fruition in Ticonderoga,Ó he said. Ò After we have the feasibility study we’ll look at the financials. Then the question is, is Ticonderoga the right place? I believe it is.Ó LetÕ s hope Tyrell is right. The NCCC applied technology center could be the economic boost the area has been seeking for decades. Ñ

Dear MaD advice: I am a new college grad and have been interviewing for professional positions, but not seeming to get a job offer. Although I thought I was prepared, I don’t seem to be the first pick. My parents are hovering and asking too many questions, always seeming to end in a fight. I need advice on the job interview and on the parents!

From Sally: Job searches can be a hot, volatile topic or they can be a supportive on-going conversation. To Parents: it is not your life and so long as your children are supporting themselves or you have had the conversations about that up-coming reality, they need to find their own place in the world. Being a little hungry and short on cash is what drives all of us to seek something bigger and better. I recommend a more formal approach to talk about the job search by planning to and then sitting down to intentionally have these discussions. Ask, listen, and add to their plan, donÕ t lecture or tell them what to do. To Young Adults: Having an ultimate goal and then pointing your job search in that direction, gets the stepping stones to success in line. It means being logical, but a little flexible in what you are willing to take as your initial job. As for the job interview, having your own strategy going in is what makes you successful. You are somewhat at the whim of how the business conducts their interviews, but doing your homework by researching the company and job description is where you start. Research other similar jobs to expand your knowledge. Never Ò wing itÓ , always prepare. Know how your work personality, education and experience relate to this job. DonÕ t assume that the employer will make those connections, as it is your job to align your skills to

their needs. And lastly, it is all about THEM and how you can make THEM successful, not about youÉ until you get that job offer! From Anna: The stress of finding a job to assume after college is a whole new experience in stress. I felt like I was in a rat race Ð the faster my peers took on jobs, the more pressure I felt to get my own. I also felt the pressure of the bystanders Ð parents, professors, and loved ones. Though they were rooting for me, I really felt like they expected it to be easier, and their frustration only grew with mine. Looking back, I have realized there is a big lesson to be learned in this type of rejection. There is no shame in sticking your toes in the water. I reached for things that, honestly, I wasn’t qualified for, or there was someone far more qualified than me to take that position. Consequently, writing cover letters became a creative outlet. I learned how to cater my strengths to fit any mold, and I did it honestly. I took the first job offered to me out of college, in Los Angeles, CA, and it was a good one. Worth the stress and initial rejection. I was lucky enough to not have an interview, but I have had plenty since then. First impressions matter, BIG. A strong handshake and direct eye contact goes a long way when meeting your interviewer. I have noticed that even those around you are watching, so look put together, look alert and be positive. Smile. The hiring process for companies takes time and money. This company wants you to be it. Their fingers are crossed just as tight as yours. Preparation is also key. Research your own strengths, re-read your cover letter and resume. Also research the company Ð if you walk in there comparing their strengths and successes to your own, that is memorable. If there is a question that stumps you, donÕ t be afraid for a little silence, conscientiously think before speaking. Answer questions honestly, while catering to your strengths. I have been to several interviews where I have said, Ò IÕ m not trained in that area, but I am trainableÓ Ð always end with a positive quality of your own to counteract what youÕ re lacking as a potential employee. Remember, theyÕ re also looking at you as a person Ð they want to work with someone approachable, motivated, friendly and assertive. If you have a question, please email us at madadvice@yahoo.com

Miner Institute hosts popular open house By Shawn Ryan

shawn@denpubs.com CHAZY — On Saturday, Aug. 10, approximately 900 people attended an open house at Miner Institute in Chazy. The goal of the open house, the first at Miner Institute in nearly five years, was to highlight the educational programs available at the facility, as well as to showcase their HeartÕ s Delight Farm Heritage Exhibit. More than 500 people were treated to wagon rides over the course of the day. The Institute also presented two Miner Morgan

equine demonstrations. Visitors enjoyed local agricultural products, with creamies from Parker Family Maple Farm, Agri-Mark cheese, and apples from Rulfs Orchards. Miner Institute also plans on unveiling an Ò Agriculture and SocietyÓ speakers series in the fall, in order to Ò better engage and inform the general publicÓ on the role agriculture has played and continues to play in society. Miner Institute is open to the general public for self-guided tours during regular business hours throughout the year.

giving a mic and an audience to anyone with something to share. The range of entertainment is as broad as the performers themselves. The performances are uncensored, open to all ages, and are a drug/alcohol free venue to offer a place really focused on expression and empowerment, Ostuni said. Each OMPN showcases the talent of a local artist as the featured performer. The next OMPN will be held Aug. 29 beginning at 8 p.m. with featured performer, Michael Carrino, a local poet and artist. Carrino will also hold a show at ROTA later in the fall. He holds an masters in writing from the Vermont College of Fine Arts. He was an English lecturer at the State University College at Plattsburgh, where he was a cofounder and poetry editor of the Saranac Review. Since his retirement, he has continued his involvement in the Saranac Review as an associate editor of poetry. He has had five books of poetry published: “Some Rescues,” “Under This Combustible Sky,” “Cafe Sonata,” Ò AutumnÕ s Return to the Maple PavilionÓ and Ò By Available LightÓ as well as individual poems in numerous journals and reviews. Ostuni said at each OMPN, the featured poet begins the night reading or performing then turns the mic over to the artists in attendance. Ò There are so many amazing poets, artists and musicians, when I look for our featured poet I look for someone who is really comfortable with their work and are very open to reciting it,Ó Ostuni said. Ostuni said the featured performers are chosen for their electricity and ability to provide a solid gamut of performance material and their ability to hold the attention of the crowd. Ò People have three chances to read or perform when they come in,Ó Ostuni said. Ò Our featured artists definitely bring people through the door and help inspire the other artists, there are so many amazing poets, artists and musicians in the area and at first when they come to an OMPN they might not be comfortable with their work to read it.Ó Ò The great thing about not just OMPN but ROTA is that it is a home for empowering local artists,Ó Ostuni said. Artists who have never read their work or shown it to the world are offered the opportunity at ROTA. Ostuni said by going to the OMPN artists can become inspired like he was to become involved and display his work to the public. “I myself was shy about showing my pieces at first and never really read them before people and I certainly didn’t organize events,” Ostuni said. “Working with ROTA we are an all non-profit, all volunteer organization, Rota itself is a very empowering place where people can get their work out there and maybe make a difference.Ó Anyone interested in being a featured performer or those interested in learning more about OMPN can inquire with Ostuni at ROTAPoetry@Gmail.com.

their way back from a successful tour of the West Coast. Ò WeÕ re really fortunate to have this level of talent appear in Plattsburgh,Ó said Patricia Diman, event organizer and cofounder of CancerBgone. Proceeds from the event, as well as other CancerBgone sponsored events, will go to the Fitzpatrick Cancer Center and the CVPH R-5 renovation project. The project consists of the reno-

vation of 8 patient rooms, to incorporate new beds, a chair for visiting family members that folds into a bed, an interactive flatscreen television, plus warmer, inviting colors for all rooms. Ò ItÕ s very important to the patient and the family how the room is, it really does promote their healing,Ó Diman said. Ò I believe theyÕ ve done two rooms now, and there are two more that are being done right now.Ó Each room costs approximately $10,000 to renovate. Diman credits the help of a dedicated core of volunteers for their success, as well as the generosity of the community. Along with the comedians and band appearing at the Aug. 24 event, there will be a live and a silent auction featuring more than 50 items donated by community members and businesses. There will also be a raffle featuring two Disney passes, two Disney passes with airfare, David Ortiz and a Mariano Rivera autographed jerseys, a New York Jets autographed ball, as well as

August 24, 2013 other items. “We have a core group of volunteers; a main group of about 10 who are just wonderful. We couldnÕ t do it without them. Without the amount of community support we wouldnÕ t be able to have the events without them, so itÕ s wonderful to have that in order to be able to do it. To see the start of this, and it keeps growing every year, itÕ s wonderful to see.Ó Diman started CancerBgone two years ago along with her husband Rob in honor of her uncle Seamus who died of cancer in Ireland. Since then, CancerBgone has hosted numerous events, and raised funds for cancer related projects such as the room renovations. They also will be coupling with the city of Plattsburgh to sponsor the annual Rock Eater Adventure Race. Diman is hoping that the pairing will be an annual thing.

PLATTSBURGH — The flavor at Mickey’s restaurant in Plattsburgh is definitely that: local. But even with a head chef and a sous chef who are both from the Champlain Valley, and who cut their culinary teeth working in local kitchens in and around Plattsburgh, the dinner menu at MickeyÕ s is far from the status quo. Head Chef/Kitchen Manager Kevin Hornby

is a Peru High School and Plattsburgh State University graduate, with a degree in hotel and restaurant tourism. His Sous Chef Brandon Kelley, from Ausable, graduated from Paul SmithÕ s College with a degree in culinary arts. Ò It basically started as a way to pay the bills,Ó Hornby said.

Cohen holds book launch at NCCCA

PLATTSBURGH Ñ Author Elizabeth Cohen will have a book launch and reading hosted at the North Country Cultural Center for the Arts, 13 Brinkerhoff Street, 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. on Aug. 23. Love meets technology with a dash of quirk in this collection of highly original short stories. An aspiring actress meets an Icelandic Yak farmer on a matchmaking Web site. An online forum for cancer support turns into a love triangle for an English professor, a Canadian fisherman, and an elementary school teacher living in Japan. A deer and a polar bear flirt via Skype. In The Hypothetical Girl a menagerie of characters graze and jockey, play and hook up in the online dating world with mixed and sometimes dark results. Flirting and communicating in chat rooms, through texts, e-mails, and IMs, they grope their way through a virtual maze of potential mates, falling in and out of what they think and hope may be true love. The Plattsburgh native teaches creative writing through Gotham Writers Workshop and is an assistant professor at SUNY Plattsburgh where she teaches poetry and memoir and serves as fiction editor for The Saranac Review. For more information contact AimŽ e Baker, NCCCA Arts Center Education Coordinator by phone at 563-1604 or by email at education@plattsburgharts.org.

Local Flavor From page 9

itÕ s a pretty easy job to get into.Ó He worked around the area while going to college, working at the former Royal Savage, the ElkÕ s Club and the Leaning Pines (now Crickets) in Peru. He landed at Mickey’s 17 years ago, and has been there ever since. HeÕ s been head chef at MickeyÕ s for nearly 14 years. The industry, he says, is good for raising a family because of the flexibility of the job as well as the dynamic found in a well run kitchen, a dynamic he says is definitely found at Mickey’s. Ò I feel very fortunate to work here,Ó agrees Kelley. Ò As long as the people who are here right now are here down the road I donÕ t plan on going anywhere. IÕ ve worked in a lot of restaurants around town before I came here, and thereÕ s just no other crew like there is here.Ó Five years ago Kelley joined the team as sous chef, and the pair work seemlessly together to keep MickeyÕ s staple recipes fresh, while getting creative with the specials. Ò Everyone in the kitchen will take anyoneÕ s opinion,Ó Kelley said. Ò WeÕ re not set in our ways. We like to try new things.Ó Hornby said about 85 percent of the menu at Mickey’s stays constant, while they experiment with about 15 percent. The balance of new recipes to stand-byes is good he thinks. Some people, he says, come to MickeyÕ s day after day and order the same thing. Ò When we do our weekend specials, we like to think outside the box a little bit, and steer maybe a little bit away from Italian. We do some steak, and seafood, do a little Mediterranean every now and then,Ó says Hornby. Hornby doesnÕ t eat out much locally, but vacations from time to time in coastal New Hampshire, and comes back from there with new menu ideas. The pair will also use the Internet and other sources like television to dig up fresh ideas. The Shrimp and Gouda Arancini, featured below for instance, came from an episode of The SopranoÕ s according to Hornby. The pair have no plans to leave MickeyÕ s any time soon, and for diners at the Riley Avenue eatery, that is certainly welcome news. Pictured on page 9: Mickey’s Head Chef Kevin Hornby (L), along with Sous Chef Brandon Kelley.

NOTICE YOU ARE IN DANGER OF LOSING YOUR HOME If you do not respond to this summons and complaint by serving a copy of the answer on the attorney for the mortgage company who filed this foreclosure proceeding against you and filing the answer with the court, a default judgment may be entered and you can lose your home. Speak to an attorney or go to the court where your case is pending for further information on how to answer the summons and protect your property.

Upon your written request within 30 days after receipt of this notice, the herein debt collector will provide you with the name and address of the original creditor if different from the current creditor. Note: Your time to respond to the summons and complaint differs from your time to dispute the validity of the debt or to request the name and address of the original creditor.
