S3TAIR Project recognizes local elementary as ‘mentor school’ By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com

Classes aim to get kids excited about cooking By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com

PERU — There’s something cooking in the kitchen — well, at least there soon will be, and kids are going to be behind it. Kiddin’ Around the Kitchen, a series of cooking classes for children, will be held at the Peru Community Church Fellowship Center beginning this Wednesday, March 3. The four-week session will be led by retired chef Helen Bisaillon and Lana Knight. The classes, though offered at the church’s fellowship center, will be nondenominational and open to all children in grades 3-5, said Knight.

“We were trying to think of something kids would enjoy doing,” said Knight. Bisaillon, who worked as a chef in the food service industry for several years and attended the Culinary Institute of America, said she is excited to bring her cooking expertise to children. Knight and Bisaillon said they have a basic outline of what they want to offer the children, including making banana bread, chicken pot pies and other kitchen creations. “We’re not going to take frankfurters and wrap them in crescent rolls. That’s not really a quality meal and it’s not really cooking,” said Knight. However, the menu isn’t set in stone, said Bisaillon, adding she will See COOKING, page 8

MORRISONVILLE — The news keeps getting better for Morrisonville Elementary School. The school was recognized for its continued excellence by the Supporting Successful Strategies to Achieve Improved Results Project, also known as S3TAIR, during a Saranac Central School District Board of Education meeting Feb. 22. This is the second time the school has received recognition from the statewide initiative, which identifies schools that have implemented and sustained curriculum that aids students with disabilities. Principal Bradley J. Ott said S3TAIR regional facilitator Job Thomas returned to the school district to inform the board Morrisonville Elementary has been selected to be a mentor school — one of 14 such schools to achieve that level of excellent and receive a $10,000 grant. “That was quite a surprise,” said Ott. The grant, explained Ott, will assist the school with helping S3TAIR document what See RECOGNITION, page 5

Want ed : Items of historical significance By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com PERU — The town of Peru has a rich history, but it’s one historians are looking for more evidence of, said Ron Allen. Allen and his wife, Carol, who serve as the town’s historians, said information was recently posted on the town’s Web site, www.perutown.com, seeking information about historical artifacts of interest to the town. “There are things that we have been seeking for quite some time and we decided to put a request on the Web site to see what it brings forth,” he said. Allen said he credits the push to find more historical items to the late Addie Shields, who served as Clinton County historian for 30 years. “One of her pet peeves, so to speak, was this entire area is very rich in Native Amer-

ican artifacts, yet we have absolutely nothing — no examples of arrowheads, spear points, knives or any of the tools they used,” said Allen. “We’re talking about thousands of years of history and nothing to represent it.” That’s why the Allens are determined to find enough artifacts to develop an exhibit. Native American artifacts can be easilyobtained in other parts of the country, said Allen, but having an exhibit of artifacts found locally would make more sense, he added. “Unless they’re intrinsically-related to the Peru area, they really don’t mean much to Peru,” said Allen. When deciding what items they’d like to see come forth to be displayed by the historian’s office, Allen said there’s also been a renewed interest in one-room schoolhouses that were once part of the town. “Someone recently purchased an old schoolhouse here and was interested in the

history of it,” said Allen. “That request prompted us to search for photos of all of the 19 schoolhouses that were in the town.” Allen said he has very few photos but knows “there are more out there.” He also would like to find photos of the town’s early starch and tanning industry and stone industrial buildings such as in the Lapham Mills area. “None of those buildings are remaining. Hopefully, there are photos floating around of those buildings, especially,” said Allen. Historical artifacts, in many cases, may be right under someone’s nose, said Allen. “They could be in the attic or the garage in boxes,” he said. Regardless of where they are, he hopes their owners would be willing to share them with the historian’s office — and not throw them out if they aren’t of interest to them. “I’ve heard of incidents where someone has old photos in storage, they die, and younger family members have no idea what

the photos are,” said Allen. “They look at them and don’t know what the pictures are of, so they toss them and they end up in the landfill. It’s a crying shame to lose all that history.” “It brings tears to my eyes when I think about it,” he added. Allen said he’s also heard of local historical items being sold in auctions to people out of the area, with the items never to return. “It’s things like that that make us determined to keep these items in Peru and preserve them for future generations,” he said. Those with information about historical artifacts of interest to the town historian’s office may contact the Allens at 643-2745, ext. 113, or 561-0038. The Allens are also looking for Peru Central School yearbooks from 1939-1947, 1964, 1965, 1980 and 2003, as well as any other items related to the town’s history.

Changes in store for CCPT routes beginning March 1 By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Clinton County Public Transit is making changes and they’re ones transportation system officials hope will benefit riders. The changes, which will be effective Monday, March 1, are based on thousands of hours of research into how CCPT could improve its services, said planning technician Maggie Barie. “This is something that’s been in the making for about two years,” said Barie. “We spoke with our drivers, with people in our dispatch office. We did rider surveys, we worked with the Clinton County Economic Collaborative and we spoke with local businesses. This process involved a lot of input from a lot of people.” As a result, several changes were made to routes and new routes were even established, said Barie. “We think we fixed most of the concerns we received from the public,” she said. “Most people are happy about the changes.” The changes are the first to the route system in 15 years, said Barie. “It’s been a long time coming,” she said. Changes to the North City route consist of completely eliminating stops at Oak Street Elementary, Montcalm Laundry and the corner of Bailey Avenue and Lafayette Street, while only eliminating stops at Beekman Towers and CVPH Medical Center during the second half of the run. Stops for that route to be added include Kinney Drugs on Boynton Avenue and Meadowbrook Healthcare on Prospect Street. The North City route will also now stop at the Aldi supermarket on Cornelia Street and the Senior Citizens Council of Clinton County Senior Center on North Catherine Street. “Which is a really big deal,” said Barie, based on rider feedback. The West City route will eliminate stops at the corner of Haley Drive and Cogan Avenue, Terrace Way, Sanborn Avenue, Beau’s

Way Apartments and the Plattsburgh YMCA. Stops to be added include medical plazas on DeGrandpre Way and Plaza Boulevard. The South City route will eliminate stops at the State University of New York at Plattsburgh, Sanborn Avenue, Park Avenue and Plattsburgh Middle School. The route’s second-half runs to Lakeview and Barnard Apartments, and the Clinton Community College housing on the former Plattsburgh Air Force Base, will also be eliminated. Stops added include McSweeney’s Red Hots location on State Route 9S, Family Dollar in the Skyway Shopping Center Plaza, and U.S.

Oval. The Transit Shuttle will be created to make stops at the Grand Isle ferry, Champlain Centre mall, Greyhound Bus Lines stop on Booth Drive, Plattsburgh International Airport and the Amtrak station on Dock Street. The shuttle will also handle stops handled previously by other routes such as CVPH Medical Center and the Clinton County Government Center, The CCC/Shopper ’s Shuttle will be created to also make stops at the mall, Champlain Centre South, Wal-Mart, Plattsburgh Plaza and SUNY Plattsburgh’s Angell College Center. That route will also handle stops at

the mall and the government center, as well as Clinton Community College and its housing formerly handled by the South City route. The North City, South City, West City, and new CCC/Shopper ’s Shuttle routes will also run every hour, on the hour, weekdays beginning at their designated start times. “That way, it’s easier for people to know when it’s coming,” said Barie. Other changes include shifting back stop times and adding additional runs for certain routes to accommodate requests from passengers getting to and from work, said Barie. “That includes shifting our Churubusco route five minutes earlier to accommodate teachers who use it to go to work at [Northern Adirondack Central],” she said. “We’ve also shifted our Peru route so commuters from Peru can come into the city by 8 o’clock.” The Wallace Hill route has also been altered to accommodate stops on Banker Road at NovaBus, UPS and the Plattsburgh Town Offices. The Saturday Shuttle will also now make stops to locations including North Bowl Lanes and Cumberland 12 Cinemas, adding more for passengers looking for access to weekend entertainment “It was just shifting the routes and stops around in order to go to more places and be more efficient. We’re getting to more of the major places where people need to go,” said Barie. The changes also include syncing up with Essex County Public Transportation, allowing two of CCPT’s routes to accommodate that schedule and opening up the opportunity for travel to Elizabethtown, Lake Placid and other destinations. “That is also a large part of coordinating transportation planning in the North Country overall,” said Barie. Though the routes have changed, the rates have not, said Barie. More information about CCPT rates and schedules can be found on their Web site, www.clintoncountypublictransit.com, or by calling their offices at 5611452.

‘Home for Hospice’ aims to raise $500,000 Fund to help nonprofit with move to new offices By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Hospice of the North Country is turning to the community for support. The nonprofit organization, which provides end-of-life care to patients and families dealing with terminal illness, recently launched a capital campaign to help underwrite costs of building a new administrative facility on Tom Miller Road. “Home for Hospice” aims to raise $500,000 to complete construction of the 3,500-squarefoot building in time for use this spring. Kent W. Brooks, executive director of Hospice of the North Country, said the purpose of the campaign is to relieve the organization of the burden of a mortgage. “What we’ve done is a mass mailing to people in our database of between 11,000 and 12,000 people, asking our friends and supporters to help offset the costs we’ve had to incur,” explained Brooks. “We’re working as hard as we can to have the end result be no mortgage to burn whatsoever.” The capital campaign is already receiving a warm response, said Brooks. The idea is to keep the momentum go-

ing by reaching out to civic organizations, churches and the business community in the weeks to come, he added. The goal is to raise the amount by May 1, when the organization is expected to be moved into its new home. “That’s our hope,” said Brooks. Hospice of the North Country has been examining a move from its current location on Durkee Street since last May. However, the idea wasn’t cost-efficient until the organization was offered land for the building at half of market value by Donald M. and Suzanne B. Kasprzak. Generosity continued when building supply merchants and contractors stepped forward to provide a percentage of materials and labor for construction at no cost. “That brings the project total significantly lower than if we had to buy everything,” said Brooks. The generosity of the Kasprzaks and those working on the project have helped bring the building nearer to completion, said Brooks. Finishing touches are currently under way inside the building, including painting and installing flooring, light fixtures and built-in desks. Outside, grading, landscaping and paving are among the final things to be done to complete

the project. “That’s really not a lot when you think we only started three months ago,” said Brooks. Though he is aware there is much competition in this economy for donations for other worthy charities, Brooks said Hospice must push forward and ask for the continued support of the community in its capital

campaign. “We’re just excited and optimistic this is going to go well and continue to drive down the cost,” said Brooks. Those interested in contributing toward the Home for Hospice campaign may mail donations to Hospice of the North Country, 43 Durkee St., Suite 200, Plattsburgh N.Y. 12901 or call the Hospice office at 561-8465.

Sometimes robots just need a little TLC W

Adirondack Humane Society

e have used Lego MindStorm robots in the classroom for about five years now. Students apply programming techniques by writing short routines causing the robots to perform basic maneuvers. We had seven of them in service when the LCD displays began to act up on two. Without a functioning LCD they were basically useless so the options were to dispose and replace them, send them in for repair or attempt a do-it-yourself fix. Tossing them and buying new ones didn’t fit our budget so that left repair as the direction to take. On-line research showed two things. First, I could find no official repair service for the robots not even from the Lego Company. Secondly, I found a malfunctioning LCD is quite common among the robots and after a little more searching came across a promising do-it-yourself repair procedure. I contacted the colleague who uses the robots and discussed the findings. We agreed to meet between the fall and spring semesters and give the procedure a try; after all we had nothing to lose. When he arrived with the broken gadgets, we immediately started the repair. The steps of the re-

pair dictated we open the unit, disconnect the LCD screen to gain access to the reverse side, and resolder bad electrical connections. Having some micro/miniature soldering experience, I knew to inspect for cold solder joints. Upon disassembly of the first unit we found and resoldered suspicious looking joints. After reassembling the unit we powered it up and happily found the repair had been successful. Repeating the process on the second unit worked equally as well. We were happy with the outcome. The landfill is spared, operating costs are conBy Ron Poland tained, but the real winner is the student who gains the valuable hands-on time that is so important to learning.

imply, a tired driver is a dangerous driver. Sleepiness slows reaction time, decreases awareness, impairs judgment and increases aggressiveness. Just like driving drunk or drugged, drowsy driving causes you to make mistakes behind the wheel — mistakes that can injure or kill the driver, passengers or total strangers. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, drowsiness or fatigue is the principal cause of up to 100,000 policereported passenger vehicle crashes every year, killing at least 1,500 people and injuring 71,000. Many more fatigue-related crashes go unreported. Surprisingly, a study showed the majority of crashes and near-crashes occur during daytime hours, when roads are more crowded, rather than at night. But sleep-related accidents at night tend to be more serious because they are more likely to occur on high-speed highways and rural roads, when the driver is alone.

• Don’t plan to work all day and then drive all night. • Drive at times when you are normally awake, and stay overnight in a hotel or motel rather than driving straight through. • Avoid driving at so-called sleepy times of day. Take a mid-afternoon break for a short nap and find a place to sleep between midnight and dawn. If you can’t nap, at least stop your drive and rest for awhile. • Take a break every two hours or every 100-120 miles, even if you don’t need a pit stop or gas. Get out of the car, take some deep breaths and do some stretching exercises, especially neck and shoulders, to relieve cramping and stress. And try to set a limit of 300-400 miles of driving per day.

Senior Connection

How to avoid falling asleep at the wheel • Stop driving if you feel sleepy. Stop and drink a caffeinated beverage. • Get plenty of sleep the night before taking a long trip — at least six hours, though more is better.

Stacking coupons adds to your savings I

’m often asked how many coupons we can use on a single item. To answer this, you need to note the difference between manufacturer coupons and store coupons. Manufacturer coupons always have the words “Manufacturer Coupon” printed on them. Regardless of whether a store’s name or logo is also on a coupon, if those words appear on it, it’s a manufacturer coupon. Store coupons will have the words “Store Coupon,” or “Retailer Coupon” on them, and the name of the issuing store will also appear on the coupon. Many stores allow us to “stack” coupons, using one manufacturer coupon and one store coupon on the same item. This gives us an even larger discount on that particular product. But in order to successfully stack, it’s important to make sure you are only using one store and one manufacturer coupon — not two manufacturer coupons. We can only use one manufacturer coupon per item. The register will never accept more than one manufacturer coupon on the same item; this would be considered coupon fraud. In my coupon classes, it’s a common misconception you can stack one Internet-printed coupon with a coupon from the newspaper inserts, but this is rarely the case. Most coupons available on the Internet for printing out are manufacturer coupons, so double-check the wording. If you have a coupon you printed out and a newspaper coupon for the same item and both state “Manufacturer Coupon,” you’ll either have to choose which coupon you want to use or buy two of that item in order to use both coupons on a given shopping trip. As long as you note the differences in the coupons and play by the rules, though, you can definitely multi-stack deals. The goal? To maximize the number of items you take home while minimizing what’s coming out of your pocket to do so. To help you understand the way I will break down a sale, I’ll share with you one of my recent deals involving multi-stacking. An area grocery store had a sale on pork ribs, which were $6.99 a slab, or $12.98 for 2. When I spot a good sale, I’ll always look for coupons to see if I can bring the price down even more. A common misconception many people have is

there aren’t coupons for meats, but there are — you just need to look in the right places! Since these ribs were labeled under the store’s house brand, I went to the store’s Web site to see if the store itself was offering any coupons for them. Many chain grocery stores offer coupons on their Web sites. In this case, the store offered a printable store coupon for $2 off a slab of house-brand ribs. Because most Internet coupons have a print limit of two, I printed two of them. Now my 2 slabs of ribs were $8.98. I wanted to get a bag of charcoal to grill those ribs with. It was $7.99. The store’s By Jill Cataldo weekly flyer had a $2 store coupon for the charcoal, bringing the price down to $5.99. I browsed the Web site of the charcoal company and found a valuable manufacturer coupon there, too: $6 off pork when you buy a bag of charcoal plus a bottle of barbecue sauce. This was a valuable coupon! Adding the bag of charcoal to my bill brought my total to $14.97, but the coupon took another $6 off the ribs. Now my total for both was $8.97 — a penny less than it would have been had I bought ribs alone! But I still needed to buy a bottle of barbecue sauce in order to qualify to use the charcoal site’s coupon. So I did. I bought a $2 bottle of name-brand barbecue sauce, because I had a great coupon from my newspaper inserts: “FREE barbecue sauce with purchase of charcoal.” Buying the sauce added $2 to my total ... and the coupon took that $2 right back off. Now, my end total for 2 slabs of ribs, an 18-lb. bag of charcoal and a bottle of barbecue sauce was $8.97. This is a great example of multi-stacking. A lot of coupons were involved, but I never used more than one manufacturer coupon on the same item. Remember, as long as you do not exceed more than one manufacturer coupon on the same item, you can use a manufacturer coupon for every single item in your shopping cart ... and I often do!

CLINTON TODAY - 5 STAIRS GOT YOU DOWN? YOU NEED A STAIRLIFT!

Putting wood ash on your garden in winter

ecause firewood is a readily available resource in our cold area, wood burning fireplaces and furnaces are not uncommon in the North Country. Depending on the efficiency of a wood burning furnace and the type of wood being burned, an average cord of wood creates about 20 pounds of ash. Over the course of one winter the ash can really add up! Many people spread their wood ashes in the garden, which can be a benefit if done properly. Wood ashes contain about 1 percent phosphorous, 5 percent potassium, and small amounts of other elements our plants require. At first this sounds great, but due to the way the potassium reacts in the soil, wood ashes can be degrade your soil’s health. When the potassium combines with water in the soil an alkaline substance chemically known as potassium hydroxide and commonly called lye is formed. This lye then raises the pH of the soil and soil pH effect nutrients availability and the microorganisms that can live in the soil. Before putting any wood ashes in your garden, get the pH tested. If your soil pH is 7.0 or higher, you won’t want to use any wood ashes in your garden. If your pH is below 7.0

$2449

you can consider using wood ashes. At the same time you get your pH tested, request a recommendation for adding limestone (or lime). The general rule of thumb is to use two pounds of wood ash for every pound of ground limestone. Apply no more than 5 pounds of wood ash per 100 square feet of soil per year. If you add more than this you can run into problems of excess salinity, alkalinity, and plant nutrient availability. The best time to apply wood ashes is during the winter. Applying the wood ashes during the growing season can cause poor germination or chemical burn. Never use coal ashes or charcoal briquettes. Coal contains toxic heavy metals. Charcoal briquettes are held together with a binder made from sodium borate, which is toxic to plants.

because my body is not used to the change in temperature. Alright, enough about vacation — I will be home soon enough. I have found, too, that dancing is a great form of exercise. It has been a while since I have been dancing but it is fun and gives you a good cardio workout. So, even if you are still sitting on the couch wondering how to get started, maybe try dancing around the house a little.

Recognition From page 1 In addition to announcing the grant, Thomas presented Ott and Cringle with a plaque and special banner celebrating Morrisonville Elementary’s designation as an “Effective Practice Mentor School.” Cringle said the overall S3TAIR recognition helps substantiate the district’s instructional practices are effective in achieving its mission of “promoting the growth of all students.” “We’re appreciative of the project’s discovery of us,” added Ott. “It was very nice to have our board of education hear directly from him.” Thomas will be working with Morrisonville Elementary staff in the weeks to come to further document “their work and facilitate the school’s opportunities to assist other schools in the state,” said Ott. “They’ve acknowledged our instructional practices, but now they want to see the inner workings, how we operate, with the intent of making these types of things available to other schools, should they want to replicate some of what we do,” said Ott. “I’m very proud of my colleagues and very thankful that we’ve been able to stick together and learn from each other.” Morrisonville Elementary is now featured on the S3TAIR Project’s Web site, www.s3tairproject.org.

Morrisonville Elementary has done to become a standout school. The money will help with hiring substitute teachers so S3TAIR representatives may conduct interviews with staff, pay for travel when staff members are invited to speak at other schools, and other necessary items for helping S3TAIR conduct its research. Last March, Morrisonville Elementary was observed by S3TAIR and found to be one of approximately 50 schools validated for outstanding practices in three instructional areas — reading/literacy instruction, positive behavioral intervention and supports, and effective delivery of special education instructional services. However, Morrisonville Elementary was and continues to be the only school in the entire state to receive validation in all three areas. School district superintendent Kenneth O. Cringle said the award is “a tremendous achievement and honor for the Morrisonville community as well as the Saranac district” because the district’s educational practices mirror one another throughout the school system. “The Morrisonville staff, administration, students and parents deserve special recognition for their outstanding efforts in striving to meet the needs of all students,” said Cringle. “Their collective efforts in the pursuit of excellence is admired and applauded.

Correction officers help children with donation to pediatric unit By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH —When children now come to CVPH Medical Center, they’ll get a side of entertainment with their medical care. The local chapter of the New York State Correctional Officers and Police Benevolent Association, which represents correction officers at the Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora, presented the hospital’s Center for Women and Children with 10 DVD players and approximately 40 DVDs Feb. 18. The donation, augmented by storage carts provided by Wal-Mart, was made as part of a continued commitment by the chapter to give back to the community. David Duquette, who was among the correction officers who presented the donation on behalf of the

chapter ’s more than 900 members, said NYSCOPBA was happy to do what it could to bring smiles to children’s faces. “We wanted to do this because we know that in the children’s ward there are sick kids that need something to do,” said Duquette. “And, we wanted to give them something to do.” Correction sergeant Mike Guynup, who was also present for the donation, said he and his fellow officers know a hospital can be an intimidating place for a child. If a movie can help take a child’s mind off why they’re there, then that’s one small way the NYSCOPBA chapter is glad to help, he said. “We have families. We’re part of the community and we’ve all utilized the hospital before,” said Guynup. “And, if we can make a kid smile, it’s worth it.” The donation was a welcome addition to the cen-

ter ’s pediatric unit, said CWC director Maria Hayes. “I think this is wonderful for the kids especially because, unfortunately, as of late, there are a lot of them that are on isolation, so they can’t leave their room,” said Hayes. “Having this equipment is wonderful because it will help keep them occupied.” “And, anytime you can put a smile on a child’s face in a hospital is great,” she added. Duquette and Guynup thanked the membership of their local NYSCOPBA chapter for making the donation possible. “I think they all feel good about it. I think knowing that a sick child will be able to watch a movie [because of the donation] is a good thing,” said Duquette. “Without our members, we couldn’t do any of this,” added Guynup.

The donation was presented and received by, from left, correction officer John Ireland, Center for Women and Children director Maria Hayes, nursing student Alpha Prasso, nurse Stacey Wood, Foundation of CVPH director Kerry Haley, nursing student Nicole Novello, nursing student Alyssa Manuzzi, correction sergeant Mike Guynup, and correction officer David Duquette.

‘To Save a Life’ arrives this weekend at Cumberland 12 Independent film discuss taboo subject of suicide By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com

Cardiac Care Closer To Home

PLATTSBURGH — Jared J. Hogle said he’s become aware of serious issues which face teenagers today through his role as a teacher with the Plattsburgh City School District. Though many may tend to think of tragedies like drug and alcohol abuse, depression and suicide happening in much larger communities, the truth is they can happen anywhere, said Hogle. “Kids cut themselves, there are shootings in schools. There are tons of serious issues that kids deal with on a daily basis,” said Hogle. When Hogle learned of “To Save a Life,” an independent film about depression and suicide, he felt it would be a film that would ignite conversation among teens and their families, giving a poignant look at what can often be a taboo subject. “It’s a serious outreach that I thought our community needs,” he said. However, getting the film here wasn’t easy. When he

learned the film wasn’t planned to be released in the Plattsburgh area, Hogle contacted Samuel Goldwyn Films, distributor of the movie, making a plea to consider the idea. “I called them and called them and called them and begged them to get it here,” said Hogle. “They weren’t going to do it because you have to show they’d have at least a thousand tickets sold the first weekend.” Hogle didn’t give up. He went as far as e-mailing the film company to tell them he would buy the 1,000 tickets himself to get the film to come to Plattsburgh. “When they saw that e-mail they called me and told me not to worry about buying the tickets and that they’d make sure it gets there,” he said. All the company asked was that Hogle reach out to as many people as possible to boost interest and potential viewership for the movie. So, he has. Hogle has been reaching out to youth groups, school administrators and anyone else he can to let them know about the week-long showing, which premieres this Friday, Feb. 26, at Cumberland 12 Cinemas.

“If it does well, it may stay around for a few weeks, which would be really awesome,” said Hogle, who noted ticket sales will determine that outcome. Craig M. Cathers, the theater ’s manager, said he’s excited to offer To Save a Life as the most recent in a line of independent films at Cumberland 12. “I think it’s something everyone really needs to see,” said Cathers. “We’re very happy Jared was able to get the information around and got it to our film booker. We’re really happy to bring it here and we hope we get a good audience for it.” “There’s only 300 copies nationwide and we get one of them,” Cathers added. “And, there’s only roughly 4,000 screens in the United States. That’s pretty impressive.” Showtimes for To Save a Life will be at 12, 2:30, 5, 7:30, and 10 p.m. More information is available by calling Cumberland 12’s movie line at 324-3777 or visiting the theater ’s Web site at www.cumberland12.com. The film is Rated PG-13 and has a runtime of 120 minutes.

‘Brush it Up’ now in business Benefit next weekend By Jeremiah S. Papineau

to help people of Haiti

jeremiah@denpubs.com PERU — There’s a new salon in town. Brush It Up is a new business with two familiar faces. Kim Mason opened her salon Feb. 1, bringing her 23 years of experience in hair styling and the 24 years experience of stylist Kimberly Reyell to the business. “It’s been my lifelong dream to have my own salon and it’s finally achieved,” said Mason, who has worked with Reyell for the past 14 years. Brush It Up offers the full gamut of modern hair styling services — including perms, updos and highlights — in a clean and friendly atmosphere. Though only open for nearly a month, Brush It Up already draws a clientele from not only Peru, but the Ausable and Ellenburg areas as well. “We’re right on the main road to Plattsburgh and we offer convenient parking,” Mason said of Brush It Up’s draw to customers. “We really reach out to a lot of areas.” The salon also carries a full line of hair styling products, including Redken and Paul Mitchell brands, which Mason keeps wellstocked. Complimentary coffee also awaits customers in the salon’s waiting area. Brush It Up will hold a grand opening this spring, with drawings for free services. Eventually, Mason said she would like the salon to offer skin care services with an esthetician and Reiki therapy services. Brush It Up is located at 3384 Main St., Unit

7, in Glenwood Plaza, off State Route 22. The salon is open 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday, Thursday and Friday, and 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday. Appointments are also available to accommodate customer needs. Brush It Up may be reached at 643-2233.

The worlds of art and music will come together to help thousands devastated by the Jan. 12 earthquake in the island nation of Haiti. The Crafty Geek Brigade — a community building organization in the Plattsburgh area — has joined forces with the North Country Food Coop, Coffee Camp and the Plattsburgh State Student Association to host “Rock for Haiti,” a two-day event Friday, March 5, and Saturday, March 6. Kimberly Cummins, one of the organizers of the event with the Crafty Geek Brigade, said when the organization was looking to host an event to help the people of Haiti, they found many others wanted to do the same. “We all wanted to help so we decided to all do something really big together,” said Cummins. “We figured that would give us better vis-

ibility.” With that, Rock for Haiti was born. The event will be a weekend of live entertainment in an alcohol-free environment that Cummins hopes will bring in hundreds. “We’ve had a really good response,” Cummins said of people wanting in on the event. “It’s great because we’re showcasing local talent and bringing everyone together to help a global cause.” “It’s going to be hopefully a little more unique than what we’ve put together before,” Cummins added. Rock for Haiti will consist of performances by The Precious Fluids, Eat.Sleep.Funk, and Adrian Aardvark at Coffee Camp, 78 Margaret St., from 7-10 p.m. March 5. On March 6, North Country Food Co-op, 25 Bridge St., will host an open mic night from 7-10 p.m. featuring DJ D:Vice, Ginge and the Giants, and Layne Underwood. That night will be a little different, said Cummins.

“On Saturday, we’re going to have an artwork sale,” she said. “People can come in and buy a lot of great artwork from local artists for $20 or less.” The Friday night fundraiser will a more high-energy event, said Cummins, and Saturday night will be a more laid back atmosphere. “This way, everyone can go and see something that interests them,” said Cummins. There’s also no pressure when it comes to admission. All the organizations ask is for a $2-$5 donation that will go to Partners in Health, an organization that has been providing healthcare and education to those in need in Haiti for more than 20 years. Partners in Health is working to prevent further deaths due to lack of proper health care. For more information about Rock for Haiti, visit www.craftygeekbrigade.wee bly.com or contact Cummins at 335-2295 or craftygeekbrigade@gmail.com.

UNYTEA Party dissatisfied with Congressman Owens PLATTSBURGH — The Upstate New York Tea Party is steaming mad about the spending habits of newly elected Rep. Bill Owens, D–Plattsburgh. During a press conference in Plattsburgh Feb. 12, UNYTEA chairman Mark L. Barie said Owens has voted for a series of bills, which, if enacted, would add more than $1 trillion to the nation’s deficit. “Since he first took office, Mr. Owens has yet to meet a big spending bill he didn’t like,” said Barie. Barie opened his comments with a quotation from President Abraham Lincoln who said, “You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than you earn.” Barie went on to say Owens is either unwilling or unable to follow President Lincoln’s advice. UNYTEA selected only a handful of his roll call votes and discovered after only 98 days in office, Owens had voted to spend more than $1 trillion. “That translates to almost $8 million for every minute of every hour of every day, since Mr. Owens took the oath of office on Nov. 6th,” said Barie, whose remarks were made during the event which unveiled UNYTEA’s new Web site. The Web site, www.unytea.com, now includes a large black button called “Bill’s bill.” After clicking on it, an online viewer will see an up-to-date tally of the cost to taxpayers for the legislation, which Owens supported. UNYTEA also distributed written materials which cited Congressional Budget Office estimates for just six pieces of legislation, all of which Owens supported. The bills included, among other things, the Affordable Health Care Act, at a cost of $894 billion.

Barie, a long-time friend and business ally of Owens, made no effort to disguise his disappointment. He pointed out Owens first supported a series of budget-busting bills and then used a parliamentary procedure to vote against a motion to raise the nation’s debt ceiling. Stating as an example of Owens’ disturbing voting record, Barie used House Resolution 4173, supported by Owens and written by Barney Frank, that would make the bailout policies used for AIG, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, General Motors and Chrysler permanent. “The cost of that new law will probably never be fully known,” Barie said. Barie also claims the legislation will benefit the American Bar Association, as it restricts the use of arbitration to settle disputes arising from U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission regulations, thus forcing investors to seek more expensive legal counsel. “Despite his record,” noted Barie, “Mr. Owens wants you to think that he is a fiscal conservative ... but his voting record is crystal clear. He has joined the ranks of the tax and spend liberals from both parties who in the last decade or so have brought our nation to the brink of financial disaster.” “Some people have accused members of Congress of spending money like drunken sailors,” he added, “but that’s an insult to sailors because sailors spend their own money ... and these are taxpayers’ dollars.” Barie invited North Country residents who are “sick and tired of picking up the tab for big spending politicians” to join the UNYTEA coalition. He pointed out UNYTEA is not a political party, nor does it align itself with either Republicans or Democrats. The main focus of the

group is to lower taxes, control government spending and government growth. Barie also reported all four candidates for the Republican nomination to run against Owens in November 2010 have agreed to appear at a candidates forum, hosted by UNYTEA. The forum is scheduled to take place in late March. “UNYTEA will play a significant role in the November elections,” predicted Barie. “Our goal is to elect a congressman who understands the need for less spending and lower taxes.” When reached for comment, Sean Magers, a representative from Owens’ office, said much of Barie’s information is “factually incorrect.” In reference to House Resolution 4173 and Barie’s allegation it will bailout corporations like AIG, Magers said that’s not the case. “This bill would do the exact opposite, and this statement is 100 percent false,” Magers said in a statement. “It holds Wall Street and big banks accountable for creating the mess we’re in by ending the practice of ‘Too Big To Fail; and by creating new procedures to unwind failing companies — paid for by the financial industry and not the taxpayer.” Seven of the major annual spending bills Congress approves annually were done so before Owens took office, added Magers. When asked about Barie’s condemnation of Owens’ voting record, Magers questioned what Barie considers to be bad spending. “I’m interested as to what bills Barie’s using in this equation,” stated Magers. “Is all spending bad? Funding for fire departments? Pay raise for troops? Body armor for Fort Drum soldiers?”

SATURDAY February 27, 2010

Cooking From page 1 base the curriculum on the interests of the young students. “We’re going to ask them what they want to cook,” said Bisaillon. “They’re the ones that want to learn. If they want to learn regular meals or desserts or even appetizers — we could do that.” “They should be able to make what they want, because if you don’t let them do that, they’re not going to like cooking,” she added. The plan is for the children to be able to make something to either eat or take home after each session, with a meal to be offered the final night of classes. “We want them to be able to make everything and hopefully be able to go home and make that particular recipe at home,” said Knight. Both Bisaillon and Knight said they want to encourage interests in cooking at a young age in boys and girls, considering it wasn’t always the norm to see boys in the kitchen. “It’s nice to see that stereo-

type go away,” said Knight. “We want it to be very unintimidating for all kids because they need to be comfortable in a kitchen. These are life skills they’re going to learn.” In addition to teaching children about the art of cooking, Knight said Kiddin’ Around the Kitchen will be a good social activity for kids as well. “If you’re not on a basketball team or soccer team, for example, you might not know your classmates other than inside the class,” said Knight. “Then, if they come to something like this, then they can have something in common they can talk about.” Classes will be held Wednesdays beginning next week, from 5:30-6:30 p.m., ending March 24. The cost is $5 per child, per night, with pre-registration required. “We just need to know how many kids to expect so we have enough ingredients,” Knight explained. For more information or to register, call 643-8641.

Corrections • In the Feb. 13 edition of the Clinton County Free Trader Today, an article about photos donated to the North Country Cultural Center for the Arts incorrectly stated from where the photos were received. The pictures were actually from various books and the community, not Derek Beneke Bove. Beneke Bove gave his senior thesis to the center, which they have onhand. • In the Feb. 20 edition, an article about the Saranac Central School District capital improvement project read superintendent Kenneth O. Cringle stated no state aid would be available for replacing the district’s heating systems. Cringle clarified not all of the project would qualify. “Building aid is determined by a number of factors … cost allowance of building, aidable vs. non-aidable items,” Cringle stated.

SATURDAY February 27, 2010

Budget cuts/APA embroil the Adirondacks N

orth Country residents beware — there’s a new lumberjack in town and he’s making cuts that threaten to decimate numerous Adirondack livelihoods and forever alter the traditions of the North Woods. An ax swinging, accidental, New York state governor is currently chopping away at the state budget with such reckless abandon he is likely to clearcut a forest composed of small, tight knit communities struggling to survive throughout the region. Last year, the mighty, Black Jack attempted similarly cruel cuts when he attempted to balance the state budget by repealing a 123-yearold law which guarantees the state of New York will pay full property taxes on several million acres of ‘forever wild’ forest preserve lands and the numerous conservation easements owned by the state. His nonsensical efforts finally ended when an unlikely alliance of environmental groups and local government officials working together to successfully oppose his plan. Their unique partnership proved when the chips are down on a forest floor, the Common Ground Alliance of the Adirondacks actually has some clout. The Common Ground’s goal is to discover ways to improve the economic viability of Adirondack communities while conserving the environment in ways both environmental groups and local government officials can support. Regrettably, a key tenet of the Alliance's effort is to foster economic growth through the development of a snowmobile trail system of community connector corridors. Although many of the connector trails already exist, the effort was stymied when an advocacy group threatened to sue the state over a proposal to widen the trails to permit grooming. Groomed trails are safer, however

groomers require at least a 12foot width. Alliances can only function effectively when all of the groups are willing to cooperate, for the benefit of the whole. The threat of suits serves to fracture relationships based on trust and good will. Sadly, such tactics serve to further exasperate the lingering ‘us vs. them’ syndrome so commonly muddles Adirondack discussions. In light of the state’s current financial malaise, it is imperative all facets of Adirondack business, sporting, environmental and political communities work together toward a shared goal. Quite simply, the region lacks the numbers necessary to wield any effective political power; we have no clout! But, we do have a vast, wild and beautiful land, we all must learn to share and use wisely. Unfortunately, it appears the Harlem lumberman who now occupies the governor ’s mansion believes the North Woods begin at the Yonkers’ county line and all locations north of that suburban border are considered fair game in his annual, big money, budget hunt. Last year, after finally accepting the fact taxes on state property must be paid by law, the shortsighted ax-bearer determined all prison camps and wilderness therapy programs in the North Country were no longer effective. He declared the facilities should all be shuttered. However, when informed one of the prison camps slated for closure was located in a Democratic district, it was determined the single facility was absolutely essential to the department’s mission. The other camps fell to the budget ax and one lone camp was spared, offering proof voter ’s count, especially when they are registered with the governor ’s own party. Facing a much tougher budget this year, the lumberjack has continued to focus on clear cutting the deadwood from the deep forests of the Department of Corrections. Again, three out of

the four facilities currently proposed for closure are located in the North Country. The facilities in Ogdensburg, Lyon Mountain and Moriah actually facilitate corrections among the resident felons; the facilities are more than simple human warehouses. Their inmates provide untold, community services from clearing ice storm damage to sandbagging to protect from flooding and more. Inmates learn responsibility, hard work and the value of community. In the minds of those in Albany, these must be considered very dangerous values for parolees to bring back to the city after their release. While the region rallies to fight these scheduled cuts, the lumbering governor has focused his budget blade to hack away at the only viable industry left in the region. He has attacked the tourism industry! The governor has proposed shuttering historic sites in Lake Placid and Crown Point, closing the Adirondack Park Agency’s Visitor Interpretive Centers in Newcomb and Paul Smiths and abandoning two, new I Love New York Gateway Welcome Centers located at rest areas on the Northway. The Beekmantown Welcome Center also serves as the main office for the Adirondack Regional Tourism Council, the only central office in the whole region. Should Adirondack towns now begin rolling up their sidewalks? Is there an easier method to clear the land? Maybe the state can figure out some method to further hack away at our society. If communities cannot be removed by means of economic depredation and social devastation, maybe it’s time to remove our revered iconic structures. They could rid the place of the landmarks that define the region, take down the historic firetowers, ban the floatplanes, close the old roads, create non-motorized, Quiet Waters and make ‘cookie cutters’ out of the architecturally significant, rustic boathouses that grace our lakeshores. Currently, the Adirondack Park Agency has proposed to make all boathouses look and measure the same, like the silly, synthetic Frankenpine cell towers. The Park Agency has been under fire in recent

months following a series of miscues that included efforts to include the lands, waters and lake bottom of the manmade Lows Lake as a wilderness area. The agency has also taken heat for alleged collusion between agency staffers and environmental groups that had been seeking enforcement of shoreline restrictions on Silver Lake. An exchange of emails and phone messages between an APA lawyer and a local attorney was exposed in the press. A similar exchange between an Agency lawyer and Sandy Lewis, an organic farmer in Essex, played out on a web forum. After the agency lawyer referred to Mr. Lewis in derogatory terms on a web post, he was reprimanded and reassigned. Lewis, who won a court battle against the agency over the development of housing on his property for farm workers, will recover over $200,000 in court fees and expenses. Sadly, the total cost of recent enforcement efforts and their related court fees could have been better utilized to fund the agency’s Visitors Centers for nearly a full year. Enforcement efforts by the agency against Sandy Lewis in Essex, Leroy Douglas in Silver Lake and John Mayes, a retired Forest Ranger in Black Brook have certainly given the agency a black eye and stirred up local resentment to levels that haven’t been matched since the troubles of ’92. Controversy continues with the nomination of Peter Hornbeck, a boat builder and businessman, to the APA Board of Commissioners. Hornbeck, best known for his popular Lost Pond boats, is also a former director and board member of the Residents Committee to Protect the Adirondacks, a high profile, environmental advocacy group that has been involved in numerous heated battles over the years. Hornbeck has been nominated to fill the seat of Arthur Lussi, a Lake Placid businessman who was appointed by Gov. George Pataki.
