Keeping your kids safe this Halloween

T

here are few days as fun or as highly anticipated for kids as Halloween. For parents, the day is one of mixed emotions. While they love to see their kids have the fun that’s typical of Halloween, there are also safety concerns surrounding the holiday.

While it might not entirely stop parental worrying until the kids come back home with their bounty of sweets, the following safety tips should help parents get the most fun out of Halloween.

Have chaperones when possible Though Halloween lands on a Saturday this year, some families may still find it hard to be able to trickor-treat together. If a parent or relative is unable to you tag along, ask a family friend or arrange for a babysitter to accompany your child.

Remind kids about strangers Even older trick-or-treaters might let their guard down on Halloween. Kids will be ringing doorbells at homes where they don’t know the residents, so parents should go over the basics, such as not entering the homes or vehicles of any people the kids and their parents don’t both know, before kids head out to get their candy.

Don’t light jack-o-lanterns While it might seem to go against Halloween tradition, a lit jack-o-lantern is a big safety hazard. Kids often crowd onto porches in bunches when trick-or-treating, and that increases the chance a costume could catch fire. If you must light a jack-o-lantern, light it with a light bulb that can be plugged in. That way there are no flames and if a pumpkin is kicked over the plug will likely be pulled out of the outlet in the process.

Halloween can be a fun time of year for kids and adults, and by taking extra precautions it can be a safe one, too. More tips can be found inside this week’s edition in the Red Cross Corner!

Paranormal expo brings frightening good time

By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Hundreds attended the Northern New York Paranormal Expo hosted by the Northern New York Paranormal Research Society and the City of Plattsburgh Recreation Department Oct. 24.

The event, held at the City Recreation Center, included vendors and exhibitors from across the region and

beyond.

NNYPRS founder and president Merrill McKee said he was pleased with the turnout for the event, which also benefited local food pantries by encouraging donations of canned goods with admission.

“We’ve gotten three or four boxes full,” said McKee. “I’m very thankful for what we got. People really came out and supported us here in Plattsburgh today.”

The event also raised money for the

Suppor t your Democratic candidates this Tuesday T

he Town of Plattsburgh Democratic Committee has announced its slate of candidates for the 2009 election.

Candidates for election consist of Martin D. Mannix Jr. for County Treasurer and Paul D. Lamoy for Town Councilperson. Candidates for re-election to their posts are Andrew J. Wylie for District Attorney, Sheila A. Brockway for Town Councilperson, Kevin M. Patnode for Town Justice, Rickey J. Collins for Town Clerk, and Jacqueline A. “Jackie” Bellew for Tax Collector.

Martin D. Mannix Jr. currently serves as a Plattsburgh Town Councilperson with 20 years experience and 10 years experiences as Deputy Town Supervisor. He has also served as chairperson of the Clinton County Democratic Committee for the past two years and was a delegate in the 1972 National Democratic Convention.

Mannix, a retired vice president of Northern Insuring Agency Inc., is a 1959 graduate of St. John’s Academy and a 1969 graduate of the State University of New York at Plattsburgh.

Organizations he has belonged to or is currently a member of include Council of Community Services, Plattsburgh Noon Rotary Club, Clinton County Civil Service Commission, Stop DWI Committee, Pine Harbour Inc. Board of Directors, Plattsburgh Lions Club, Plattsburgh College Foundation, SUNY Plattsburgh Century Club, and Town of Plattsburgh Senior Housing Committee.

“It is my belief that the job can and should be done with a greater degree of energy and vision,” said Mannix. “This was the case with our previous treasurer, Janet Duprey. We have lost that community involvement.”

Andrew J. Wylie is seeking re-election to a four-year term as District Attorney, a position he has held since January 2006.

Wylie is a 1979 graduate of St. John’s Academy and 1984 graduate of Marquette University, Milwaukee, Wis. He is also a 1987 graduate of Creighton University School of Law, Omaha, Neb. He has belonged to or is currently a member of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, Knights of Columbus, Plattsburgh F.C. Soccer Club, Clinton County Bar Association, New York State Bar Association, and the District Attorneys Association of New York.

Since taking office, Wylie has tried several

The committee also supports Bill Owens as the Democratic candidate for the two-year seat of representative of the 23rd Congressional District. high-profile cases, including the Edward Dashnaw and Glen Race homicide trials, along with several other violent crime and drug cases.

“The District Attorney’s office will continue to work closely with law enforcement, county service programs and our community service programs to meet the needs of the public and better serve the people of Clinton County,” said Wylie.

Sheila A. Brockway is seeking her second fouryear term as Town Councilperson. In addition to her role as a councilperson, she has served as Deputy Town Supervisor for three years.

Brockway, who has been employed as a registered nurse at CVPH Medical Center for the past 36 years, is a 1970 graduate of Salmon River Central, Fort Covington, and a 1973 graduate of the CVPH Medical Center School of Nursing. She has belonged to or is currently a member of Cumberland Head Tomorrow and the League of Women Voters.

“I will continue to serve the community and work hard to bring significant job growth and responsible economic development to the town of Plattsburgh,” said Brockway. “I will support responsible spending, monitor expenses and revenues. I will make informed decisions.”

Paul D. Lamoy is seeking election to the fouryear position of Town Councilperson. He has

served the position previously and as a member of the Town Planning Board.

Lamoy, a 1980 graduate of Peru High School, and graduate of Clinton Community College and SUNY Plattsburgh, he is employed as a foreman for William J. Murray Electric. Inc. He has belonged to or is currently a member of the Relay For Life American Cancer Society Committee and has served as an Assistant Fire Chief, New York State Emergency Medical Technician, American Red Cross First Aid and CPR instructor, MDA Telethon chairman, baseball and softball umpire and hockey referee.

“The Town of Plattsburgh continues to grow even during this economic downturn. I bring to the Town Council the construction expertise to continue to expand the infrastructure that is needed as new businesses move into the town,” said Lamoy.

Kevin M. Patnode is seeking his third fouryear term as Town Justice.

Patnode, who is an 11th grade U.S. History and Government teacher at AuSable Valley High School, Clintonville, is a 1974 AuSable Valley graduate and graduate of SUNY Plattsburgh. He has belonged to or is currently a member of the Clinton County Magistrate Association and New York State Magistrate Association.

“The Town Court has changed dramatically in the number and complexity of court cases,” said Patnode. “I will continue to strive to keep our court running smoothly and efficiently. Fairness and dependability have been the attributes I have brought to the court. I’ll work hard to justify the trust of our residents.”

Rickey J. Collins has served as Town Clerk since June, when he took over the role from previous Town Clerk Amy Duquette. He previously served as Deputy Town Clerk for more than three years.

Collins, who has been the owner and operator of R.C. and Son Garage for 41 years, is a 1966 graduate of Plattsburgh High School. He is also a 1970 graduate of the former John W. Harold Education Center, 1999 graduate of the Entrepreneurial Institute, and is a certified New York State Archives Historical Recorder.

Collins has belonged to or is currently a member of the Town Clerks Association, Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, the Loyal Order of Moose, Plattsburgh-North Country Chamber of Commerce, New York State Towing Association, and U.S. Towing Association.

“I will continue to use my skills and knowledge to provide the residents with the kind of Town Clerk they need and deserve,” Collins said.

Jacqueline A. “Jackie” Bellew is seeking a third four-year term as Tax Collector. Bellew is a 1979 graduate of Mount Assumption Institute.

Within the past four years, Bellew’s office has implemented the use of credit cards and e-checks for methods of payment. Her office has also created tax bills on-line at egov.basny.com/plattsburgh.

“I will continue to bring a full-time commitment to the taxpayers,” said Bellew. “I will be in the office daily and during peak collecting times I will continue to have evening and Saturday hours. I will continue to enhance services while being fiscally responsible.”

The Town of Plattsburgh Democratic Committee also supports Bill Owens as the Democratic candidate for the two-year seat of representative of the 23rd Congressional District. Owens is currently managing partner at the law firm Stafford, Owens, Piller, Murnane, & Trombley PLLC, and has practiced for 30 years.

Helping hands need a helping hand St. Vincent de Paul Thrift Store outgrowing current location jeremiah@denpubs.com PERU — The St. Vincent de Paul Thrift Store has been in operation for more than 30 years, and now, the store is starting to need a little more room.

Store coordinator Jane Woods said the thrift store is outgrowing its space adjacent to the St. Augustine’s Parish Center on Main Street. The small building that houses men’s, women’s and children’s clothing is becoming more and more cramped as weeks go by and donations come in, said Woods.

“Our donations are unbelievable. We can’t keep up with the sorting,” said Woods.

When the national economy began to see signs of trouble last year, the thrift store, which had already been seeing a steady number of customers each week, grew exponentially.

“We see about 80 to 115 people a week,” said Woods.

“We used to make $50 to $60 a week. Now, we average $350 week. And, when you’re talking bags selling for $3 to $6, that’s a lot of clothes that go through here.”

That means even more money for the outreach efforts of St. Augustine’s Church, which oversees operation of the store, said Woods. The money raised helps provide for people in need for a variety of reasons such as those who have lost their home to fire or those who suddenly find themselves without employment.

“We really do help a lot of people,” said Woods.

The church’s generosity is parallel with the generosity seen by the store, said Woods. On an average day, there are several bags of donations brought to the dropoff box outside the thrift store. The bags are then thoroughly examined and sorted by the store’s more than 20 volunteers and prepared to be sold to customers.

“People have been bringing in donations that are better quality clothing,” said volunteer Sue Williams.

“Sometimes we even get brand-new donations,” added Glenda Herforth.

“That’s nice.”

The higher quality donations make for a quick turnaround time for merchan-

dise, said Woods, yet there is still a constant struggle to find space for it all. Whatever the thrift store doesn’t sell, it donates to other organizations such as the Mission of Hope which helps families in Nicaragua and Birthright, which helps expectant mothers in the area.

“We always have someone come to pick up the excess we have because we really only have the one storage building,” said Woods. “We really do need a bigger place. This is really not big enough.”

When walking into the thrift store, customers immediately find themselves walking through a U-shaped aisle filled with clothing, shoes and bedding. And, though meticulously organized, where simply isn’t enough room to show all the year-round merchandise the store has, said Woods.

“We can only put winter stuff out in the winter and summer stuff out in the summer,” she said, noting what can’t fit in the store space goes overhead in a storage area accessible only by a small entryway over the store’s checkout counter.

“We just do not have enough room to put everything out.”

That’s why the church leadership is pursuing relo-

cating the thrift store to a bigger building, said Woods.

However, the store doesn’t make enough money to construct a new building, she added, and the church doesn’t have the money in its own coffers either.

“It all costs money,” said

Woods.

The ability to relocate the thrift store will most likely rely on the church receiving sizable monetary donations or, in what would be Woods’ favorite scenario, the donation of a house or other

building that could be used to house the store.

“That’s our dream,” she said.

“So, if someone wants to donate a house, we’d appreciate it,” added Williams, smiling.

Those interested in making donations may contact Woods at 834-5324 or visit the thrift store 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday though Friday; 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. Saturday; and additionally from 7-9 p.m. Thursday evenings.

Fez is somewhat shy but it could just be the number of cats at the shelter. He is neutered, house-trained, vaccinated, and all he needs now is you!

emember those math word problems like, “If a train leaves New York at noon and travels 60 miles per hour, what time will the train arrive in Chicago, 790 miles away?” A question today could be “The 8GB Apple 3G costs $199 with a two-year contract of $150 per month plus 10 percent in taxes. What is the average monthly cost of the phone for 24 months?”

There are many cell phone deals available today for smart phones and regular cell phones. The basic difference between the two types is the Web access feature of smart phones that allows Internet access, e-mail and other services. Many of the deals start by putting a sweet device in your hands at a fraction of the cost by signing a contract typically lasting two years.

Some of the deals are good, but I would consider all offers, evaluate signal quality where the device will be used, and do the math before signing on the dotted line. Popular smart phones, like the Apple 3G or Blackberry, coupled with a decent number of calling minutes, unlimited texting and Web access/data plan clock in at approximately $3,600 before taxes over two years. Add in taxes and the monthly amortized cost of the device and the true cost becomes apparent. Tallied completely, popular smart phones like the two mentioned above can set the user back about $200 a

month — the equivalent of a car payment.

Those two-year contracts are extremely profitable to the wireless service providers, so they pay keen attention to each other ’s pricing structure which, in itself, is a major force in pricing.

The costs may go down over time as more first-time users enter the market with some signing up for the less expensive Palm Pre from Sprint or T-Mobile’s G1.

To prevent carbon monoxide poisoning, the EPA suggests remembering the acronym, “I CAN B:” • Install CO alarms near sleeping areas.

• Check heating systems and fuel-burning appliances annually.

• Avoid the use of nonvented combustion appliances.

• Never burn fuels indoors except in devices such as stoves or furnaces made for safe use.

• Be attentive to possible symptoms of CO poisoning.

Couponing’s best-kept secrets: eyes on the prize

I

’m sure you know by now that I love getting groceries for free with coupons whenever possible. But we can’t get everything for free all of the time. Here’s a fun way to maximize coupon savings and get items very inexpensively, even when they’re not completely free.

arbon monoxide or “CO” poisoning is the most common cause of death by poisoning in the U.S. , and older Americans are especially vulnerable to carbon monoxide poisoning because of their high frequency of pre-existing medical conditions, such as chronic heart disease, anemia, or respiratory problems, the Environmental Protection Agency warns.

Many of the symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning are similar to those of the flu. As a result, older Americans might not think CO poisoning could be the cause, the EPA points out. Symptoms could be the result of CO poisoning when: • You feel better when you are away from your home.

• More than one person in the home gets sick at the same time (it usually takes several days for the flu to pass from person to person).

• Family members who are most affected spend the most time in the home.

• Symptoms occur or get worse shortly after turning on a fuel-burning device or running a vehicle in an attached garage.

• Indoor pets also appear ill, exhibiting symptoms such as drowsiness and lethargy (human flu viruses are not trans-

Manufacturers will often issue coupons for an item that’s free “when you purchase any of these three brands.” The coupon often shows various other brands or products sold by the same manufacturer. I recently had a coupon offering a free package of hot dogs if the shopper purchased three other items from the same manufacturer.

During the sale at my store, the hot dogs were on sale for $3.99. If the total cost of the three additional items is less than the sale price of the hot dogs, I’ll get the hot dogs cheaper than I could have purchased them otherwise — plus, I’ll have three additional items to take home as part of the deal, too.

When I spot coupons like these, I will look closely at the additional brands featured. I do not necessarily think about whether I want or need these items. Instead, I calculate what would be the least expensive thing to buy to make the larger item cost as little as possible.

The additional products with the hot dog deal included coffee, crackers, condiments, gelatin desserts and powdered drink mixes.

Of those items, the gelatin desserts and powdered drink mixes seemed like the best candidates. They’re both usually pretty inexpensive, and buying three of either will qualify me for my free $3.99 package of hot dogs. After checking the prices on both, I saw the gelatin was on sale for 33 cents a box.

I could pay 99 cents for three boxes and get a free package of hot dogs, too! Not bad at all.

But then I checked the price on powdered drink mixes. They were on sale for 10 cents each! Whether I plan to drink them or not, buying 3 packets of drink mix became my means for

acquiring the $3.99 package of hot dogs for just 30 cents!

In my coupon classes, I refer to this as the “take one for the team” couponing strategy. Sometimes it’s necessary to buy something we don’t necessarily want because it’s our means to acquire the item we actually do want for a much lower price.

Here’s another example. I recently saw tear pads of coupons in the produce deBy Jill Cataldo partment of my store near the salads. The coupons provided $2 off produce when you purchased any of a certain manufacturer ’s salad dressing. I looked at that brand of salad dressing and realized the manufacturer makes both bottled salad dressings and the dry seasoning that come in a small packet, the kind you mix at home with oil and vinegar. The packets of seasoning cost 79 cents.

So, for each packet of the salad dressing I purchased, I used one of the coupons. I was able to buy $2 worth of fresh produce for 79 cents. I didn’t necessarily want the salad dressing, but it allowed me to purchase my produce items at a much lower cost.

Next week, I’ll answer some more reader mail and we’ll take a brief break from coupon tips to discuss the best way to organize all of the coupons we receive each week in the newspaper. © CTW Features

Budget season has come around again

T

he 2010 budget preparation process is winding down. In our discussions, the town board has been weighing the wants and needs of the town, determined to keep any tax levy increase tied to the inflation rate.

According to the Moore Inflation Predictor at www.fintrend.com, the most likely inflation for the next year is predicted to be 3.5 percent with an extreme high at 5.5 percent and an extreme low of 1.8 percent. The current inflation rate, as calculated by www.inflationdata.com, from January 2009 to September 2009, is 2.29 percent.

The preliminary budget the board has worked out calls for an increase in total budget expenditures of 3 percent. The general fund budget is down 2.6 percent and the highway is up 4.8 percent. In this preliminary budget, the salary increase for employees and elected officials — other than the supervisor and the town board members whose salaries will continue to remain the same as in the previous five years — is 3 percent.

The Town Crier is scheduled to be published four times in 2010. We have budgeted again this year for a community development consultant who has helped win us grants totaling $106,000 so far and has provided valuable assistance in our planning efforts to revitalize the hamlets and our dormant industrial park.

The tax rate — the amount you pay based on your individual assessment — for the general fund is scheduled to be decreased by eight cents per thousand of assessed value. The highway rate is up 11 cents per thousand and these two combine to be a total proposed rate increase of three cents per thousand.

We’ve put aside $71,700 in an equipment line that will go toward a new truck purBy Joe Gerardi chase in 2011. In order to meet a county initiative, we have had to set aside $4,070 to go towards expenses that will enable our tax collector to take part in a county data base program at some point in the future.

The hearing for this preliminary budget is scheduled for Thursday, Nov. 5.

How to take care of those freshly-fallen leaves

I

love the oranges, reds, and yellows of autumn. They are beautiful. But, once those colors drop, we are left with quite the thick layer of leaves on the lawn. Since leaves come from a tree, they contain essential plant nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. This can be a good thing.

If the leaves are not managed properly, these nutrients can also be a bad thing. Especially since leaves are loaded with phosphorus. If fallen leaves are not managed properly, they can end up in surface water runoff. When that runoff ends up in local waterways, the phosphorus in the leaves can cause algal blooms, lower levels of dissolved oxygen in the water, and kill fish and other aquatic organisms.

To help prevent phosphorus runoff, homeowners should never rake their leaves into the street. Luckily, there are simple leaf options for homeowners.

Homeowners can choose to leave their leaves on the lawns, but if the layer of leaves is thick the leaves can mat down and smother the grass. To prevent this, thick layers of leaves should be raked off. Leaves that aren’t too thick can be mowed into fine pieces. These small pieces of leaves will filter through the grass and improve the quality of the soil.

Mulching lawn mowers are great for this task.

The leaves can also be collected for compost. Simply pile the leaves and mix in onethird green grass clippings or one third fruit and vegetable food scraps. Make sure the pile is located where the leaves won’t wash away.

Turning the pile occasionally helps to speed up the decomposition process. Once the pile is decomposed, the compost can be added to the garden, flower beds, or lawn.

If you don’t have a good place to compost leaves, you still have a few options. The leaves can be chopped with a mower and spread over gardens. Or, they can be bagged for your local municipal composting operation.

The most important thing to remember with your fallen leaves is to keep them out of waterways. That means not to rake them into the road where they can wash away, or into storm sewers where they can be carried into lakes, rivers, and streams.

Red Cross Halloween safety tips

T

he North Country chapter of the American Red Cross has furnished these Halloween Safety Tips to help children and their families be safe and celebrate Halloween right: • Map out the route that you plan to roam, so adults are assured you will find your way home!

• From the bravest of superheroes to the noblest of knights, everyone should remember to bring their flashlights!

• If you visit a house where a stranger resides, accept treats at the door and, don’t go inside!

• When you are ready to put on your disguise, use face paint instead of a mask!

• Always remember, before you embark, to wear light colored clothing so you can be seen in the dark! (use reflective tape even on bikes)!

• Remember to walk on the sidewalk and

not on the street! As you roam through the neighborhood collecting your treats, look both ways before crossing the street!

• Wigs, capes and costumes are flammable attire, so avoid open flames to prevent a fire!

• Use a glow stick instead of a candle so your jack-olantern isn’t a safety gamble.

• Do not hide between parked cars!

• Monsters and zombies should stay off the lawn, and only visit homes with their porch lights on!

• You may be dressed as a werewolf, a cat or a frog, but be cautious around strange animals, especially dogs!

Annual SEFA campaign now under way PLATTSBURGH — The State Employees Federated Appeal has officially kicked off across the North Country. The annual campaign targets state employees and provides them with an opportunity to pledge contributions to a wide variety of local, national and international charities.

The United Way of Clinton and Essex Counties Inc. coordinates the SEFA campaign in Hamilton, Franklin, Essex and Clinton counties. The campaign is overseen and operated by a regional SEFA committee comprised of representatives from throughout the four counties.

Last year, the SEFA committee was successful in raising $197,054.50 among state employees for participating charities and

federations.

“State employees in this area are very generous and caring people and our committee does a great job raising much needed dollars for important purposes,” said Wayne Rabideau, an Altona Correctional Facility employee and member of the Public Employee Federation Union, serves as committee chair and loaned executive for the campaign.

This year, the committee, which also includes representatives from charities, is hoping to raise more than $200,000.

“The SEFA campaign is a great asset to our community and beyond. I am very proud to be a part of it and to work with a great group of people,” said local United Way executive director John C. Bernardi.

STAIRS GOT YOU DOWN? YOU NEED A STAIRLIFT!

United Way supports North Country Clinton and Essex Counties are great places to live and raise a family. I have said this for years and continue to believe it. Part of what makes this area such a great place to live is the people who choose to live in this area, be it job or other reasons. There is a great sense of community here and people genuinely care about each other.

I have seen close up the various organizations that United Way supports. The Champlain Valley Chapter of the Compassionate Friends, Family Promise of Clinton County, Inc., Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, RSVP both of Clinton & Essex Counties, Literacy Volunteers, YMCA, and the Senior Citizens Council to name a few. Whether you know it or not, most all of us have been touched by one of the organizations that United Way supports. I never thought I would need the services of one of these organizations, but a few years back I reached out to the Alzheimer ’s Disease Assistance Center. I did so because I have a family member that is suffering from Alzheimer ’s, and I needed help understanding the progression of the disease and the decisions our family was going to be faced with as time progressed. They helped me and my family tremendously and I am grateful that they exist due in part because of your donations to the United Way. Now, I know that the economy on a national level is unsettled and even here we are feeling the effects of the slowdown. However, as one person once told me, a crisis is never scheduled. No one schedules to be out of work or to get sick. A youth does not wait until times are good to get involved in drugs or to need help with homework. Our senior citizens would prefer not to need Meals on Wheels. At times like we are in now is when the services of a lot of the programs we support are needed most. As we look to cut back on some things, I hope that United Way is not one of them.

In fact, it is time to step up and increase your contribution or make that first one. To fully fund our agencies request, we need $700,000. This is money that stays in Clinton and Essex counties, goes to Clinton and Essex counties’ agencies, benefiting Clinton and Essex counties’ residents.

We need your contributions and we need you to encourage those around you to contribute as well. Please, help me in my march around the county and support our community by supporting United Way. For more information, please contact myself at 562-6515 or John Bernardi, at 563-0028, or visit the United Way Web site at www.unitedwayce.org or your contribution can be mailed to 45 Tom Miller Road, Plattsburgh N.Y. 12901.

If you have made your contribution, thank you! Rest assured your dollars will be wisely used to change lives right here in Clinton and Essex counties.

North Countyman’s values You asked for our comments as to what we want to see in the North Countryman. I think of you as a good, clean, family-oriented little ad paper, but there was one article in the June 12 issue that upset me. I thought of writing John Gereau at the time and never did.

In that issue I was shocked to see a headline saying there’s a support group for “gay” youth in Plattsburgh. I’d just sent a letter to the Plattsburgh city schools saying I might be able to help there, but if such a group is in the schools, I don’t want to. I was horrified at the beginning of the article that said a lesbian had found her identity in such a group. That’s a lie! God made man in His image to have fellowship with Him. Sin robs us of that fellowship. We can never know the purpose for which He made us until and unless we repent of all of our sin and meet with our Lord Jesus Christ Himself.

Then we’ll know our identity.

Homosexuality, according to the Bible, is abomination. My doctor in Washington said it’s the worst sin because it snowballs. The first chapter of Romans in the bible describes homosexuality and the judgment that God pronounced upon it.

I don’t know what the rest of the article said, but that lie alone condones such abomination. The same way Sodom was judged, this nation will be judged for that very sin along with the rest that’s legalized. For instance, people think nothing of breaking the Ten Commandments by the way they treat Sunday, the Lord’s Day. On the other hand, I sent the picture of the geese on ten front page of the Oct. 16 edition to my sister in California. As a Christian, I like good, wholesome news, including information on candidates running for local election. I hope you’ll keep the North Countryman going in a God-pleasing way.

(Editor’s Note: The story to which the writer refers was regarding the Plattsburgh Youth Pride Alliance. The article ran in the June 13, 2009 editions of both the North Countryman and the Clinton County Free Trader Today.)

SUNY Plattsburgh teacher education programs earn national accreditation PLATTSBURGH — The Teacher Education Accreditation Council has announced it is granting SUNY Plattsburgh’s teacher education programs accreditation for five years — the highest number of years the accrediting body will give to a first-time applicant.

“This is a significant achievement, and one which represents the work of many, many individuals – individuals who went above and beyond just simply doing what the accrediting body required,” said SUNY Plattsburgh president John C. Ettling. “Instead, our teaching faculty had as their guide a desire to do what is right for our students.”

The announcement follows a detailed audit of the college’s teacher education programs, which found them to be “above standard” in all categories listed: Candidate Learning, Faculty Learning, and Capacity and Commitment.

It also follows a reorganization of the college’s teacher education unit – one which resulted in curricula that are unified by nine teaching themes; that utilize an inquiry-based approach to instruction; and that have students working as adults in the classroom as early as the first semester of their freshman year.

Teacher education has been a mainstay at SUNY Plattsburgh, since the college was originally founded to educate and prepare students for careers in the class-

room. Over the years, the teacher education programs have produced 25 percent of the college’s graduates.

According to Dr. David Hill, the dean of education, health and human services, the TEAC accreditation, reaffirms the work faculty has been doing in upgrading the program.

“We’ve worked hard to make innovations in our program so that we can prepare teachers for tomorrow, and that can’t help but make a difference to our children,” said Hill.

“Today’s teachers must learn to navigate the complexities of the classroom,” he added. They must be able to deal with rapid changes, like the fact that the technology they use today may be obsolete tomorrow. They need to know their content in depth, but they also need to know how to shift focus when that content becomes irrelevant. And they need to be able to adapt everything they do for the unique needs of learners in the classroom.

In order to address these needs, the faculty worked as a team and researched current best practices in the field, said Dr. Bob Ackland, program area coordinator.

This research was boiled down into a list of themes upon which all of their activities were to be based.

These themes promote the knowledge of content, learning environments and technology; the knowledge of the art and science behind teaching with an emphasis

on assessment, critical thinking, problem solving and recursive learning; and the adaptation of professional skills such as collaboration, modeling and honoring multiculturalism and diversity.

Once the themes were agreed upon, faculty members worked together to develop systems to monitor the effectiveness of their instruction – something they are also asking their students to do in their own teaching. Now, as faculty members teach, they are continuously assessing what is working and what is not and making improvements.

Faculty members are checking to see if their students feel they are part of a learning community. They are also doing research to determine the impact these feelings might have on student performance. Furthermore, they are exploring the impact of early field placements; the amount of time faculty members spend at area schools; and whether or not program graduates are applying what they’ve learned in terms of best practices.

According to Hill, faculty members are not only proud of the accreditation, they are proud of the work they are doing.

“This research has invigorated the faculty,” said Dr. Heidi Schnackenberg, a program area coordinators in the teacher education unit.

Dr. Denise Simard, a fel-

low program coordinator, agreed. “I do feel there is a genuine passion about this inquiry approach to the teaching and learning process.”

Exotic fish found in Otter Creek E

mployees of the Vermont Marble Power Division of Omya made a startling discovery near their Sutherland Plant in Proctor, Vt., last week.

The group noticed an oddlooking fish in the water of Otter Creek. The fish was captured and later identified

by Vermont fisheries biologist Shawn Good as being a Pacu — a cousin of the ferocious Piranha that is native to the Amazon and Orinoco river basins of South America.

Good believes the fish was set free after being removed from a private aquarium it had most likely outgrown. It measured 15 inches and weighed 2.5 pounds.

While owners may think they are doing their pets a favor by setting them free, the practice can be devastating to local ecosystems, Good said.

“Illegal aquarium releases are a common source of exotic species introductions in the U.S.,” said Good. “More than 38 species of unwanted fish and dozens of plants, crayfish, and snails have become established in waters of the U.S as a result.”

Some infestations — like Eurasian watermilfoil and the northern snakehead fish — have cost millions of dollars for control and management. Even then, these species remain, having forever altered the environment, Good said.

Both Vermont and New York have laws in place making it

illegal to release fish into More on state’s backpublic waters. country ponds boat ban “It seems that the general I’ve received plenty of public is largely unaware of feedback from anglers who the dangers posed by releasbelieve the state was off base ing aquarium fish,” said to ban small boats and canoes Good. “I can't stress enough from being left on remote how serious this is.” trout waters.

But, that isn’t the case with every exotic species, like the northern snakehead or even the common goldfish.

“There are many species of common aquarium fish that could establish populations if they were released, and that could cause immense damage to native fish populations and ecosystems,” he said.
