By Shawn Ryan shawn@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ On consecutive days last week, Plattsburgh City Court judge Mark Rogers handed out nearly identical sentences to Michael and Tammy Staley for their roles in the Northern Puppies abuse and abandonment cases from last summer. First, Michael Staley avoided jail time in his puppy abandonment case, over the impassioned pleas of Assistant District Attorney Jason Marx. Staley was sentenced Thursday, Jan. 23 to time served, in the amount of the two days he had spent in jail after his initial CONTINUED ON PAGE 5

Adirondack Young Professionals’ Vice President Leigh Carter-Simonette. Carter-Simonette hopes to attract more young professionals from in and around Plattsburgh to join their ranks.
PLATTSBURGH Ñ The North Country has long had a problem attracting and retaining young professionals into the ranks of its business class. The goal of the Adirondack Young Professionals (AdkYP) has, since its inception in 2007, been to reverse that trend. The 501c3 not-for-profit organization met in Plattsburgh recently for a regularly scheduled meeting, and getting the word out about their orgainzation and expanding their numbers was key on the agenda. One of the key barriers AdkYP faces according to Vice President Leigh Carter-Simonette is perception, both the perception of who qualifies as “young,” and who qualifies as a “professional.” “When you talk about young, I myself am 33, but basically there’s no age requirement,” she said. “We’ve had someone as old as 73 before, so we really think of it as young or young at

New computers help JCEO with their mission By Shawn Ryan
shawn@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ JCEO of Clinton and Franklin County recently received a donation of several computers from United Healthcare Community Plan, through their Community Computers Program. The donations have allowed JCEO to set up work stations so clients can surf job listings, check their eligibility for various programs, and other important computer specific functions at JCEO locations around Clinton County. “They’re being utilized (the computers), but the word isn’t really getting out,” said Kathy Bishop, Development Specialist at JCEO. “This program extends the life of older computers, and puts them in the hands of people who can use them. This is a win-win for everyone.” The work stations are located at JCEOÕ s 54 Margaret Street, Plattsburgh location, as well as at their outreach offices at Champlain Head Start, in the 3 Steeples Church on Route 11 in Champlain, Beekman Street Head Start at the Methodist Church on Beekman Street, and the Keeseville Head Start at the Community Outreach Building in Keeseville. When United Healthcare updates their company’s computers, they refurbish the old computers, and donate them to agencies like the JCEO for use in local communities. But helping clients with computer access is only a very small part of what JCEO does in the region. They also manage all the food pantries in the North Country, with locations in Altona, Ausable, Black Brook, Champlain, Chazy, Clinton, Dannemora, Ellenburg, the Town of Plattsburgh, Saranac and Peru. “We really don’t think people know where all the food pantries are,” said JCEO Community Outreach Coordinator Sally Soucia. “We have food pantries at all of our locations, and we offer people up to three days of nutritious foods for the week.” Soucia reports that use of their food pantries is up noticeably
as the economic downturn lingers on. JCEO will also coordinate transportation to medical appointments for medicaid recipients and seniors through their senior transportation program. They also act as a referral clearinghouse for people in need of social services found else where in the two county area. “Whatever people need, we try to make sure they get what services they need, whether we do it here or have to refer them somewhere,” said Bishop. JCEO can be reached at 5616310, or at www.jceo.org, for more information on specific locations of their food pantries, or information on any of the multiple services JCEO offers.

It takes many crossroads to make a musical landscape Plattsburgh music more than just the bar scene By Shawn Ryan
shawn@denpubs.com
56551
PLATTSBURGH Ñ PlattsburghÕ s music community cannot be painted with a broad brush. It would be hard even to paint the music landscape on one mural. On first blush, the music scene in Plattsburgh might appear to revolve around a couple downtown bars, a bunch of inebriated college kids and a few unruly locals looking for a fight. While that may have been the reality years ago, it has grown well beyond those constraints, and continues to evolve. While establishments like the Monopole and Olive RidleyÕ s remain stalwarts of live music here, smaller venues now share the landscape with a growing yearly music festival juggernaut in Peru, and other genres like bluegrass have carved out a presence outside the city as well. The number of bands in and around Plattsburgh rises and falls cyclically, and it appears that according to some in the local music industry that itÕ s currently on a low ebb. “Five years ago there must have been 10 or 15 local bands, whereas right now there just doesn’t seem to be,” said Corey Rosoff, owner of the Monopole who also does all the musical bookings for the bar. “The music scene is vibrant in Plattsburgh, I just see it with different bands now.” The ebb and flow likely has a lot to do with North Country demographics. Small communities like Plattsburgh have long been known to suffer a “Brain Drain” of intellectual talent to larger cities with more job opportunities. A musical Brain Drain can be at play as well, as musicians leave towns for both better nonmusical jobs, as well as more or possibly better opportunities to play their music. Occasionally, they come back. That was the case with local singer-songwriter Giovanina Bucci, who moved back to the North Country three years ago, after being away for 10 years. Having been away and come back, she has possibly a clearer perspective than most on how the scene has changed. She currently sees local support for music, and for the arts in general, to be much stronger than it was a decade ago. “Of course there’s room to grow, but basically, if you support it, it will grow,” she said. “I think we’re in this really ripe time for that.” Bucci, and numerous other local musicians, point to grassroot efforts by newer venues like the ROTA gallery, and efforts by First Weekends in Plattsburgh to both support young, up and coming bands, as well as to bring in bands from out of the area to play. Established musicians like Bucci occasionally play shows

at ROTA without compensation, in order for them to be able to support a traveling band from outside the area who might be playing on the same night. Other venues like the Unitarian Universalist Church at 4 Palmer Street in Plattsburgh, and the Naked Turtle feature live music in Plattsburgh as well. Off the Hookah plans to soon bring in live music as well. Underground spots where musicians can play, such as one that used to be located on Mason Street in Morrisonville, pop up from time to time as well. While some of these venues pay little, if anything, to a band, they are definitely a crucial piece of the puzzle for nurturing young musicians, critical to regenerating any areaÕ s music scene. “It’s very grassroots, because we are that size of town,” says Bucci. “It’s all the reasons you love this town, and hate this town.” Local bands in Plattsburgh also suffer from a traditional reluctance of locals to pay more than a nominal cover charge to see live music. Plattsburgh is, along with other things, a college town. Notoriously Ô frugal,Õ many college students who are old enough to see a band in a bar, would rather spend their money at the bar than at the door. This over the years has helped to stagnate what a band, even a band with a decent local following, can make playing their music. “A lot of these bands, it (the cover charge) should be $10, but people get to the door and they’re just outraged,” said Lowell Wurster, percussionist and singer with the Plattsburgh band Lu-
cid. “The point is people are used to not paying for music around here. TheyÕ ve been spoiled for a long time, and thatÕ s how bands are going to make their money.” Outside Plattsburgh, the numbers of bars that used to feature live music has definitely declined over the past decade or more. This has, along with other genres, impacted the number of country bands who can be found playing in the area. “In this area I don’t see a lot of places that bands…like country bands can just play and go to. I don’t see a ton of (country) bands, period,” said Julie Hogan, singer and bass player for the bluegrass band Beartracks. Hogan used to play in country bands in the bar scene outside Plattsburgh. Those bars have dried up, she says, likely from a combination of greater DWI enforcement, changes in smoking laws, and the downturn in the economy. While they play a limited number of shows locally, Beartracks spends much of the summer traveling to as far away as Calgary and Colorado to play bluegrass festivals. The nationally acclaimed bluegrass band The Gibson Brothers also hail from the North Country, but travel to play most of their shows as well. One of the most promising developments on the musical landscape over the past several years is the yearly Backwoods Pond Fest, formerly Pondstock, held in Peru each summer. Backwoods has grown to be the largest music festival north of the Albany area. Averaging about 22 bands per year, the weekend festival has been attracting not just local and regional, but national acts in a host of various genres. Last year Backwoods attracted about 2,000 attendees according to Wurster, who helps organize security for the event. The complexity of the scene in Plattsburgh is summed best by Wurster, whose band has garnered a loyal following throughout the New England and the North East, and is easily one of the biggest band to come out of Plattsburgh in recent memory. He says that Lucid has been approached on numerous occasions to leave the area where they might make more money and have a better shot at the musical Holy Grail of fame and fortune, but they choose to stay here because, in part, of the Ô otherÕ things Plattsburgh has to offer. “People say all the time, you guys should move and all this. Not only is this our home, but I feel there are people trying to do stuff here.” Only the time, musicians who make the music, and the patrons who choose whether or not to support it, will tell where the music scene goes from here.

Common Core the wrong choice
T
he adoption of the Common Core learning standards in New York State has created a lucrative opportunity for educational publishers like Pearson Education, while leaving our children behind. As states and schools rush to buy products aligned to the new standards, our children suffer because of a callous disregard for their educational needs. Core-aligned tests are diminishing our childrenÕ s creativity and enthusiasm to learn while handcuffing our teachers to specific, developmentally inappropriate standards and curricular materials. Our kids donÕ t all develop according to a specific map; they learn by interaction through experiences that are unique to each child. They canÕ t be force-fed. Our teachers are seeing a notable shift in math instruction. For example, asking an 8-year-old a math related multiple-choice question like “Which is a related subtraction sentence?” hardly seems like something a third grade student would understand. English instructors have noticed a more heavy emphasis on non-fiction texts with new standards. A “Lexile” score is one of the methods used to gauge reading difficulty within the common core standards. These scores are based on how difficult texts are to read; actual content and in-depth meaning play second fiddle. The complexity of meaning in both classic literature and high-interest young adult novels has been disregarded. Educators and parents in New York State are taking a stand against the common core and New York State Education Commissioner John King for good reason. NYSUT (New York State United Teachers) union, with 600,000 members, recently passed a resolution to remove King and withdraw support for the Common Core State Standardized testing. At the same time, our governorÕ s silence on this issue is beyond disappointing. So far, the testing has proved to be nothing but offensive and ineffective to parents, students and educators alike throughout the state. In recent months, the NYS common core website linked children to a sex quiz site, while Mr. King brushed off accusations from concerned parents and judged the common coreÕ s popularity on the number of “hits” on the NY webpage. The current Common Core standards are limited to English and math, but will expand to all subjects in the coming years. Instead of rolling these standards in one grade level at a time over several years, as other states have done, New York State has implemented them
for every math and English student from third to eighth grade at once. Along with the standards and the assessments, teachers are now subjected to modules Ñ scripted 10-week units that they are to follow in order to stay aligned to the core. Teacher artistry and creativity has been decimated, and although the commissioner may claim that the modules are not mandated, that local control of curriculum still exists, a closer look says otherwise: up to 25 percent of a grade 3-8 Math or ELA teacherÕ s annual evaluation is based on the grade-level state assessment, and the message at area common core trainings is that questions on the assessments will be structured like those on the modules. This is clearly a back-door mandate, and New York State teachers and students are at risk of becoming generic. Despite thousands of teacher layoffs in an era when state education aid has been drastically reduced, NYS is hiring “common core coaches” to come into our schools to help with the transition. Common Core can be traced back to the 2009 stimulus bill, which gave $4.35 billion to the Federal Department of Education. This created the “Race to the Top” competition between states. In order to qualify for funding, states needed to adopt Common Core. Participating states would then be exempt from many of the difficult provisions of the “No Child Left Behind” program. To date, Common Core has been adopted by 45 states and the District of Columbia, but many are already jumping ship, with opposition developing in the states of Utah, California, Indiana, and Missouri among others. The Common Core is further marred by the large corporations reaping the profits of its implementation. Pearson education executives believed the Common Core work performed by their nonprofit arm could later be sold by their for-profit organization and generate “tens of millions of dollars” for the company. They have since agreed to pay $7.5 million to avoid prosecution by the Attorney General of New York state for blurring the lines between its not for profit and for profit company. We shouldn’t educate our kids because of the mere marketability of an educational reform, or by diluting individual choice by directing children where to go and what to learn. Stealing our educator’s creative talents in exchange for a cookie cutter education for our children is just plain unacceptable. Ñ

Style & Substance: on the preparation of job applicants Dear style & substance, I am a local Plattsburgh employer, employing about 15 people who have a wide range of duties to make my small business operate smoothly. Recently, I advertised a position and am appalled at how people show up unprepared; Ò messyÓ is the word that comes to mind both with grooming and filling out applications. Without sounding too nitpicky, could you advise me on how to get the point across with the applicants that come in? First of all, you have the right to be “nitpicky”, as these are your employees and they are the face of and represent your company both at work and in the community! The difference between being particular and sounding like a ridiculous broken record is stating your expectations ahead of time. I (Michele) recently had the opportunity to serve as an Evaluator for 4-H Public Speaking Presentations. The young people presenting were not only articulate and engaging, they dressed the part! A young man, eight years old, presented on fluid power; wearing navy trousers and a crisp white oxford with a complimentary tie. To complete the look, a polished dress shoe Ð he knew that the presenter of hydraulic and pneumatic systems had to show up dressed for success Ð and succeed he did. He obviously was coached by 4-H leaders and parents to play the part, which unfortunately is not happening (or not being taken seriously) in all teaching and home environments. We share this story with you to make this point - his success did not just happen, there were steps and guidelines all along his path. As simple as this is, people rise (or donÕ t) to meet an expectation, the same as your potential employees. You may not want to tell perspective employees how to present themselves, you may believe that an individual should just Ô know betterÕ , but as you can see, this has not been working for you.
how many people they may interview with, a point of contact and whether or not phone calls are welcome, and a list of what they are being considered on: professional/job appropriate appearance, knowledge of the business, current skills and experience, trainability, communication…. This also helps you and your management team to clarify what it is you are actually looking for and shows potential employees your style of management; that you are upfront and clear in expectations. “ I simply believe it is common decency to be presentable.” — Elizabeth Wurtzel If you are working hard to keep yourself and your business “presentable”, your example and setting an expectation will keep it going in a positive direction! Our advice: any future advertisements should include your expectations for an employee. You do not need to be overly prescriptive, a simple line or two, such as, Ô polished, professional, articulate individual with excellent writing and communication skillsÕ , or more subtly, Ô be prepared to interviewÕ . If you are requesting an “apply in person” response, have an instruction page on top of the application. You or your first point of contact can briefly explain that this is part of your screening process. It can start with required dress/grooming code and that filling out the application neatly and accurately will determine the next step in the interview process. If they have met those two requirements upon application submission, they proceed to step 2. At this time, another explanation of the pending interview process can be issued. This requires time up front on your part, but it will actually make the process easier and more efficient. The interview explanation can let them know time frames, who and

He was not redeemed by his owners and is now available for adoption.Luther is a great dog that is very smart and loving. He is an easy going dog who loves to laze the day away on a dog bed. Luther enjoys playing with toys and with people. Luther gets along with some dogs, but he is kind of picky about the dogs he befriends. Luther is house trained, can sit, lay down and come on command; he loves to please his people. Did we mention that Luther is hearing impaired! Erica, one of our staff members, has taught Luther hand signals. Although Luther is deaf he doesnÕ t react poorly when he is startled.

Rogers went on to sentence Staley to two consecutive terms of three years’ probation, plus a fine of $500, and restitution in the amount of $1,300, avoiding any jail time which was possible according to sentencing guidelines. The fine and restitution can be paid back by Staley at a rate of $50 per month. As he had the previous day, Marx implored the court to specify that the StaleyÕ s were not allowed by the sentence to breed the two unaltered Rottweiler dogs that they currently own as pets. “Should Ms. Staley be found to be breeding animals, would she be in violation of her probation?” Marx asked Rogers at the conclusion of the case. “That’s what I said,” answered Rogers. Tammy and Michael Staley were later seen leaving Plattsburgh city court hand in hand.

arrest, and two consecutive three year terms of probation. Additional conditions included that Staley not be allowed to own any pets other than the two Rottweiler dogs and six Chinchillas that the family currently owns, and that the two Rottweilers be spay or neutered within the next 30 days. A fine of $500 was also imposed, which Staley can pay back at the rate of $50 per month, along with restitution of $2,782.65. Prior to imposing the sentence, Marx addressed the court with his request that Staley be given the maximum sentence possible, which would include jail time, and to exclude the Staleys from owning any pets. Marx pointed out that Staley’s stated reason for abandoning the 24 puppies was the burden that caring for them was putting on his family, while at the same time the family willingly cared for eight of their own animals. “He paints himself as a victim of circumstances,” said Marx. “This is not a person who takes responsibility for his actions…I am stating emphatically that this is no reason for them to have pets. They are not responsible pet owners.” The pre-sentence investigation indicated that Staley should not be allowed to own animals. That section was amended by Rogers to indicate that the Staleys were allowed to keep the animals they currently own. Prior to sentencing Staley, Rogers stated that it was “remarkable” that this case had generated the amount of interest that it has generated. He referenced the fact that other such cases, including more serious cases, did not generate jail time. He did however admonish Staley by saying: “Mr. Staley was not put in any position. He put himself in whatever situation he is currently in.” On Nov. 21, Staley had accepted a plea agreement offered by District Attorney Andrew Wylie, which called for Staley to plead guilty to five misdemeanor counts of abandonment, with sentencing to be left to Rogers. The plea was in satisfaction of his arrest on 24 counts of abandonment of an animal which resulted from a late summer incident where Staley staged a burglary at his wifeÕ s pet store Ñ Northern Puppies Ñ and took the 24 puppies in the store, and abandoned them in rural location throughout Clinton County. After his arrest, Staley ultimately admitted to taking the 24 puppies and abandoning them, according to City Police. Five of those puppies were never located. As he had just 24 hours earlier, Rogers ignored the pleas of Marx, and sentenced Tammy Staley to probation and a fine, avoiding any jail time for the former pet store owner. Tammy Staley, who stood before Judge Rogers for sentencing Jan. 24 after having pled guilty to five counts of cruelty to an animal for her role in the maltreatment and deaths of numerous animals at her pet store, Northern Puppies, this past summer,

was sentenced to two consecutive terms of three years probation, restitution of $1,300, and a fine of $500. Her husband, Michael Staley, was sentenced to probation and a fine a day earlier for his role in the saga, where he staged a burglary at the pet store, removed 24 puppies, and dumped the puppies in rural locations across western Clinton County. All but five of the puppies were located and turned over the Plattsburgh City Police. The five remaining puppies are feared by local authorities to have perished. In a tense courtroom, Marx pled emphatically for jail time for Staley. Stating that this, Tammy StaleyÕ s case, was a completely different case than her husband’s, Marx asked the court, as he had asked the previous day, for jail time for Staley. “The conditions were inhumane, and in the instances of several of the animals, deadly,” Marx argued. In a terse exchange, Staley’s lawyer Frank Zappala, stated: “I will not even dignify the statements of the prosecution with a response,” raising a question from Judge Rogers as to whether he had just heard correctly what Zappala had said. Zappala went on to argue that the court should sentence consistent with the sentence handed down the previous day. Judge Rogers, citing a pre-sentence investigation which included a prior stint of “unsteady performance” on probation by Staley, stated: “It was a bad thing, a very bad thing, and I’m not sure that Ms. Staley gets it either.”
heart.” As for who qualifies as a professional, Carter-Simonette said AdkYP is equally as inclusive. When she first heard of the group, she pictured only business owners or people in management positions. “I thought, ‘How do I ft in?’ I was basically more of an administrative employee at the time, and that was something that obviously needed to be debunked,” she said. “It’s not just for business owners. It’s not for this crowd or that crowd, its for anybody in the community who wants to network and meet new people.” Networking and socializing with other like-minded professional people is one of the main strengths of AdkYP. They have attracted people from as far away as Rouses Point and Champlain, and occasionally from the Lake Placid area, but Plattsburgh is their core membership area. It is a place to get noticed in the community and to grow as an individual as well. The group is active with civic causes, planning activities and getting out in the community and volunteering. First Weekends in Plattsburgh, which Carter-Simonette is also the Vice President of, was an idea that came in part from of the AdkYP along with other Plattsburgh civic luminaries. There are more tangible benefits to membership as well, such as discounts at participating businesses, but itÕ s networning with like-minded people of a similar demographic that is AdkYPÕ s strongest asset. People interested in learning more about AdkYP can check their Facebook page, email info@adkyp.com, or email CarterSiminette directly at leighcarter@msn.com.
