ADK Jazz Orchestra bringing together North Country talent By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — The melodic sounds of the Adirondack Jazz Orchestra have been sporadic arrangements played only a few times a year and only heard by those fortunate enough to catch them on those rare occasions — until now. The big band music group — which consists of musicians from across Clinton, Essex and Franklin counties — has coordinated with the management of Olive Ridley’s, a restaurant and bar in the city of Plattsburgh, to begin performing regularly at the popular downtown establishment. Matthew Pray, musical
director of the Adirondack Jazz Orchestra, said the partnership with Olive Ridley’s has been the kind of thing the group has been working toward since its inception in November 2003. “Basically, until now, we’d only play like once or twice a year,” explained Pray. The beginnings of the Adirondack Jazz Orchestra were very humble when the group formed nearly six years ago. Pray, who was then a trumpet player at the Crane School of Music at the State University of New York at Potsdam, was on the cusp of graduation and was wondering where he would take his talent from there.

Radio aeromodelers continue flying high Club raises record-setting $2,800 for Hospice By Sarah L. Cronk sarah@denpubs.com BEEKMANTOWN — For nearly 40 years, members of the Plattsburgh Radio Aeromodelers Club have looked to the sky. With humble beginnings — nine men, no land, and “operating on a shoestring” — PRAM has grown throughout the years to become a club of 52 members, with 38 acres of land, and the ability to raise $2,800 for Hospice of the North Country this year. “We were looking for a charity to donate money to as part of our nonprofit fund,” explained club president Jack Hoskins. “It’s a wonderful organization.” PRAM have been collecting donations annually for Hospice for the last seven
years during their Radio Controlled Fun-Fly events held each June. Every year, people pour through the gates of Memorial Field on Rooney Road and pay a donation for parking. “There was one family that donated $50 just to come in the gate,” recalled club vice president Roy Perry. However, despite the current economy, PRAM collected more money this year than any other year. “Last year, I think it was $1,500 or $1,600,” Perry said. “This was a blowout year. It really was. The weather was excellent. Had a lot of pilots come from many different areas and the public really came out.” The $2,800 check was do-

PLATTSBURGH — When Gordon J. Hazel was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer two years ago, he admits he didn’t know how much longer he had to live. “The doctors at that time thought I might live months, not years,” said Hazel. “I’ve been very lucky.” The 62-year-old Plattsburgh resident and retired director of the Joint Council for Economic Opportunity for Clinton and Franklin Counties, credits his extended longevity to specialized clinical treatments he was receiving through the Cancer Treatment Center of America in Philadelphia, Pa. The treatments were successful in reducing the cancerous tumors that had invaded his body, said Hazel, but when he and his wife, Kathleen, traveled to Myrtle Beach, S.C., and attempted to continue the treatments there, Hazel said he was informed by his insurance company they’d no longer foot the bill.

“I got a letter from the insurance company saying that they were no longer going to pay for those treatments because there was nothing that proved they were safe, effective or added to a person’s quality of life,” he said. Hazel filed an official appeal against the insurance company’s decision, providing copies of his treatment records from Philadelphia, which showed improvements in his health following the procedures, he said. However, it wasn’t enough, and Hazel lost his appeal. “Quite frankly, it wasn’t about safety, effectiveness or quality of life,” said Hazel. “In my opinion, it was about money. Because of those treatments, I’ve survived a couple of years, even though those treatments were expensive.” The insurance company could not furnish him with information that proved the treatments weren’t safe or effective, said Hazel, even when he

nated to Hospice during another fun-fly, held Aug. 22-23. “Hospice is the most incredible organization and people are more than willing to give,” said Perry. “They do good work ... they really do.” After the check presentation, the members of the club and the other pilots participating in the fun-fly went back to what they do best — flying their planes. Hoskins has found throughout the years many men join the club later in life — following raising a family and retirement. “A lot of the guys get interested ... with dad flying model airplanes back in the ‘40s and ‘50s,” Hoskins explained. “Then, as we get older and have more time, our kids are gone. What are we going to do come retirement?” Fourteen years ago, Hoskins had a similar experience and decided to join the club. However, Perry has been with the club since the beginning. Perry, along with deceased members Edmund Merrifield and Maynard Jubert, were

Chazy native pens book about experience in Iraq Middleton to sign copies of ‘Saber’s Edge’ Saturday at Chazy Public Library By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com CHAZY — The North Country will see the return of a familiar face as author Thomas A. Middleton comes back to his hometown of Chazy. Middleton, who now lives in Essex Junction, Vt., will be making an appearance at Chazy Public Library, 9633 State Route 9, this Saturday, Aug. 29, as the library hosts its annual end-of-summer book sale. He’ll be signing copies of his new book, “Sabers Edge: A Combat Medic in Ramadi, Iraq,” which he penned based on his own experiences serving in the Vermont National Guard. The story, Middleton explained, takes readers from his daily life as a career firefighter with the Burlington Fire Department to war-torn Iraq following the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on American soil. “I never really thought that I’d have to use my weapons or really go to war,” said Mid-
Thomas A. Middleton dleton. However, Middleton believed so much in the National Guard’s mission, he eventually asked to be reassigned from the noncombatant role of a combat medic to the infantry where he found himself
in the thick of the war. “I talk about the ethical quandaries and the moral dilemmas and the conflict within myself as I struggled to be okay with what we were doing and to always try to do the right thing,” said Middleton.
“The temptation to indulge in vengeance was pretty strong and it was always there,” he admitted. “Fortunately, I did what was right. I didn’t succumb to that temptation, but I talk about how difficult it was to follow my moral compass.” Though Saber ’s Edge draws from his own experience fighting overseas, the book is a testament to the spirit of the citizen soldier and the role of the National Guard, which is often the least understood, Middleton said. The book describes intense firefights including one, in which Middleton said he was nearly killed. “This was no sideline support role,” he said. “This was right in the middle of it.” Middleton will be signing copies of his book during this Saturday’s book sale from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. For more information about Saber ’s Edge, including an excerpt from Middleton’s book, visit his Web site at www.sabersedgebook.com.

ooking to buy a new computer but waiting for the debut of Windows 7? There may be no need to wait any longer. As we approach the October launch date of Windows 7, Microsoft has released details on how current Windows users may upgrade to the new operating system. For people who recently bought a system, osnews.com is reporting if you bought “…a Windows Vista machine after July 1, 2009, you will get a free upgrade to Windows 7 once it’s released.” That good news is tempered with some restrictions that make the upgrades very narrow. For instance, it is reported users can upgrade from Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 Home Premium but not from say Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 Professional. That means anyone purchasing now should do a little research on the version of Vista to select in order to get the desired version of Windows 7. Also, make sure the company selling the computer will in fact participate in the free upgrade program. If money is a little tight, know there are plenty of free third-party applications that nicely replace features missing from Windows “premium” versions. The October issue of Maximum PC has an article stating current users of Windows XP and Windows Vista may have
an option to buy a $50 upgrade edition of Windows 7. That is a very attractive option, especially for anyone who bought a retail version of Windows XP since its release in 2001. Think about it, users who did that have received up to eight years of use that now turns into an attractive option to upgrade inexpensively. The article goes on to say the details are a little “obscured” surrounding the upgrade and to stay tuned as changes may occur.

State agencies sound warning of lottery scams
T
he New York State Consumer Protection Board and the New York State Lottery have teamed up to alert New Yorkers to an increase in lottery scams. Unscrupulous marketers use the telephone, faxes, e-mail, and cell phone (mobile) text messages to connect with potential victims and lure them into their traps. Working with wellknown lottery personality Yolanda Vega, the two state agencies have produced audio and video public service announcements in English and Spanish to raise awareness among consumers of diverse backgrounds about the scams. The U.S. Postal Inspection Service estimates consumers spend approximately $120 million a year in responding to foreign lottery mailings. In July 2009, the FBI arrested11 people in Israel on charges of a phony “Lottery Prize” scheme that targeted elderly victims in the U.S. from approximately 2005 through 2009. The scheme identified victims through the purchase of information broker lists of U.S. residents who subscribed to sweepstakes lotteries. The scam involved calling the victims and informing them they had won a substantial cash prize, but they had to pay a significant fee and taxes to obtain the prize. The CPB advises consumers to: • Ignore an e-mail or advertisement seeking personal in-
formation like bank account or Social Security numbers. • Never pay an up-front fee to claim lottery winnings. • Disregard lottery prize notifications sent by bulk mail, even if it’s addressed to you, because they’re fake. • Never enter international lotteries from within the U.S. In fact, it is against federal law to do so. • Ignore notices claiming you won a prize for a lottery if you haven’t bought or been given a ticket. Consumers wishing to provide information to law enforcement and/or receive notice of future developments in the FBI case are advised to contact the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York, at 1-866-874-8900.

Loyalty programs can yield big pay days
W
hile it’s exciting to cut your grocery bill significantly with coupons, there are great ways to save on non-food items, too, especially personal care and cleaning products. Many national drugstore chains offer what the retail industry refers to as “loyalty programs” that often feature special deals on items in these categories. These store loyalty programs include coupons for store credit that shoppers receive when they purchase one or more of the promoted products. So how do these promotions work? Here’s an example. In my drugstore’s weekly flier, the store advertises if I buy a certain brand of shampoo for $3.99, I will get a $3 coupon at checkout. This coupon is good for a $3 reduction on any product sold in the store. It’s almost like a gift card. I can use the $3 credit to buy anything I want, it’s not tied to any specific item. These coupons typically bear a statement such as, “Good for $3 off your next purchase.” However, unlike a gift card, these coupons carry an expiration date, just as a traditional coupon does. This is the “loyalty” part of the program. The drugstore wants you to come back in over the next few weeks and shop again. Since I will pay $3.99 for the shampoo but will immediately receive $3 back at checkout for use on a future trip, the actual cost of the shampoo to me is just 99 cents. The $3 I spent on the shampoo comes right back to me in the form of store credit — the checkout coupon. Now, it’s always fun to get money back when you shop. But the wonderful thing about loyalty programs is you can use coupons on the items involved in these promotions. And, using coupons in conjunction with the loyalty savings often results in big savings to you, the shopper. With the shampoo example above, let’s add a coupon into the mix. For this brand of shampoo, I had a $2 manufacturer coupon. So, with the coupon my $3.99 bottle of shampoo cost just $1.99 — and I also received that $3 coupon for my next shopping trip. This deal just became what I like to call a “mon-
eymaker!” When we figure that $3 coupon into the equation, I paid less than $2 for the shampoo and got $3 back. The store paid me $1.01 to take that shampoo home. You may wonder how often drugstores feature loyalty sales such as this. The answer? Almost every week! Check the fliers of the large drugstore chains in your area and look for items with text near them indicating they By Jill Cataldo will “pay you back” a certain dollar amount in coupons for purchasing the item. These kinds of payback deals are frequent and plentiful. So what kinds of items are included in these sales? Almost every kind of personal care item you can imagine: toothpaste, toothbrushes, shampoo, conditioner, razors, shaving products, makeup, even over-the-counter medicines are featured regularly. Household cleaners, air fresheners, laundry and dish detergent are often included in these sales, too. If you use coupons in conjunction with the items involved, you can often get the items in question for less than a dollar, and many times, completely free. Better yet, there are times when the store will be “paying” you to take things home too. And any time the store is paying me to shop, I’m smiling all the way to the checkout lane!

Jazz From page 1 “I was going around asking everyone if there was a local, professional big band in the area and everybody would say there wasn’t but suggest I start one,” recalled the Keeseville native. Through the guidance of the school’s director of jazz studies, Bret Zvacek, Pray was able to reach out to music teachers across the North Country. “Within an hour, we had a band and have been going strong ever since then,” said Pray. The group has evolved during the past few years, but their ability to stay true to their roots — a mixture of original swing dance music and contemporary jazz — has remained the same. The band today consists of 19 members, with five on saxophones, five on trumpets, four on trombones, and musicians on tuba, bass, piano, guitar and drums. And, their membership is as wide range as their instruments, noted Pray, with musicians traveling from as far as Tupper Lake, New Russia and Malone and as close as Plattsburgh, Beekmantown and Peru to play. “We’ve got a good mix of music teachers and other local music professionals,” said Pray. Among them is Matthew Barlow, a music teacher at Beekmantown Middle School, who has been playing with the Adirondack Jazz Orchestra since its inception.
Barlow said he’s proud to be able to perform with highlytalented musicians while “having a good time doing it.” “It really impresses me what excellent musicians we have around us here,” said Barlow. “It’s always fun to play with those folks and it brings a great deal of personal gratification to be able to perform with them.” “I think that the North Country could use as many cultural opportunities as we can muster,” he added. “If we can provide at least one of those, then we’re doing something positive.” Though Pray’s older brother, Keith, began a similar-
style group in Albany, it wasn’t until Pray took a trumpet lesson from famous trumpet player Bobby Shew that he seriously considered the group performing on a regular basis. The setting had to be just right, he explained, with a stage large enough to hold the band and room large enough to accommodate large crowds. “Olive Ridley’s was the first place I went to,” said Pray. “They seemed to be the best place in the area to offer live music. So, I contacted [owner] Matt Spiegel and he absolutely loved the idea. He’s been more than willing to help us out in any way he
NORTH COUNTRYMAN - 5
can.” Spiegel said the Adirondack Jazz Orchestra is the kind of entertainment he had in mind when wanting to showcase local talent at his establishment. “I have a true appreciation for music and culture in Plattsburgh and I just think we need more of it,” said Spiegel. “When Matt [Pray] came to me, I was super impressed and thrilled that he wanted to come here and play. It’s great for the community.” “Whether people are familiar with big band music or not, I think they’re going to find they’re going to have a good time,” said Barlow.
“Hopefully, if we can get enough people out there, it’ll help raise the bar for cultural experiences in Plattsburgh.” The Adirondack Jazz Orchestra will perform the first Wednesday of every month, from 8-10 p.m., starting Sept. 2. Performances are free and
open to the public, and not exclusively to those ages 21 and older, Pray noted. The band’s latest news may be followed on-line at www.myspace.com/adirondackjazzorchestra and on Facebook by searching for Adirondack Jazz Orchestra.

6 - NORTH COUNTRYMAN • OUTDOORS
SATURDAY August 29, 2009
A park in trouble, part II Prior to the completion of the interstate, most employment opportunities were limited to just the local communities. The Northway allowed workers to commute many miles to work in the cities of Plattsburgh, Glens Falls or Saratoga. Before the interstate, road trips were limited to traveling on the winding, old Route 9. In Elizabethtown alone, over a half dozen families relocated to town on the coattails of the new highway. Many of the newcomers were young professionals and most arrived with families in tow. Across the region, local school systems experienced a significant boost in class sizes. Today, the trend has been reversed. Young people are leaving the park, while those that are returning are often retired. Bill Osborn, director of Tourism and Economic Development for Hamilton County, is a prime example. “I’m a composite of the typical Adirondack resident today,” Osborn revealed. “I was born here and left for business opportunities elsewhere. I made my money and decided to retire here. Others have done the same, but they settled for second homes and usually leave during the cold months.” It’s a fact that children grow up faster today, with less innocence and greater pressures than ever before. They are exposed to more due to the proliferation of the new media. Cable and satellite TV provide over a hundred channels, and the Internet offers even greater exposure. With the click of a mouse, today’s youth have the world at their fingertips. And often, what they see is much more interesting and exciting than what is available locally. They watch their parents working at two or three jobs while struggling to get by and they don't want to do the same. Young people need excitement, they want to have fun. They need opportunity and many don’t believe it can be found here.
L
ast week’s column, which focused on the “state of the park” and the dearth of opportunities for area youth, generated a great deal of interest and concern. Several readers remarked on the ‘Catch 22’ aspect of life in the Adirondacks. Sue H. from Schroon Lake remarked, “It’s (the park) a beautiful place to live, but no one can afford to live here! There’s nothing but low paying jobs, with few benefits or just seasonal employment, which requires long hours during a short timeframe. What kind of future is that?” From Upper Jay, John L. asked, “If the state’s really worried about the future (of Adirondack youth) they should offer incentives to bring them home after they finish college. The federal government offers loans for medical school students, which requires doctors to work in a rural area for several years to pay off their debt. But, what could local students do around here after they finished college, work for ORDA or the highway department?” Many changes have occurred over the years to bring about present situation, where an aging population is amplified by an exodus of youth. The last major boost to the region’s population occurred when the Northway was completed in 1967. After the interstate was completed, many Adirondack communities experienced an influx of newcomers.
Unfortunately, many local communities can no longer support or offer recreational options like a bowling alley, a movie theatre or a gymnasium. There are a number of communities that don’t even have a local diner or similar social center, where kids can gather. Although local communities continually strive to provide options for visitors, they have often neglected to provide similar opportunities for their youth. Is it any wonder that when the day comes for a local kid to get out of town, they jump at the option? Despite a plethora of outdoor recreational pursuits, there is very little else left to offer them. Across the park, options for viable, lifelong employment opportunities have largely diminished over the past 20 to 30 years. The days of extraction industries are gone. The mines of Tahawus, Witherbee and Lyon Mountain have all closed. The forest products industry is similarly withering. Today, the Ticonderoga pencils used by the children in Ticonderoga are no longer manufactured with wood from our local forests. Globalization has allowed cheaper wood from Malaysia to be more cost effective in the manufacture of pencils than the trees in our own backyard. Small towns are atrophying from the lack of opportunity. We must begin to offer employment options beyond tourism. Communities need business, but businesses require consumers. If if weren’t for the friendly Stewart’s Shops, many North Country communities wouldn’t even have a local grocery store or gas station. The Olympic Regional Development Authority has provided a beneficial investment in Lake Placid, and it has in North Creek. A trickle down affect has also helped some of the peripheral towns, such as Wilmington, Chestertown and Saranac Lake. However, there is a palpable resentment from some of the park’s other communities over this arrangement, while many downstate residents view the situation as living on the state’s dole. “Lake Placid wouldn’t exist if the state didn’t subsidize it. Neither would Tupper Lake, if Sunmount closed,” argued June

asked for a letter to that effect. “I asked them to send me a letter stating they weren’t safe, because if they would have, I would have stopped [the treatments],” said Hazel. “I would do anything to myself that wasn’t safe.” But, the insurance company never did, he said. In fact, Hazel was informed if he were to continue the treatments, he’d have to do so at his own expense, which is something he said he couldn’t afford. The potential silver lining to Hazel’s dark cloud, however, was the agreement by the Cancer Treatment Center of America hospital in Philadelphia to resume Hazel’s treatments for him until further appeals are decided with the insurance company, he said. Hazel, who is now back in Plattsburgh, has been traveling to Philadelphia several times a month for the treatments, but his expenses for travel and other associated expenses continue to add up. The mounting expenses have led his son, Marc, to organize a benefit for him this Sunday, Aug. 30, at the Naked Turtle, 1 Dock St. The benefit, which will begin at 11:30 a.m., will feature music from several local bands, including Witness Protection, Zip City, Crow Party, Ross Mafia, and more. The event will also include a Chinese auction, raffles and other activities. “The biggest thing we can learn from this benefit is this is what insurance companies do to people, and somehow, we’ve got to fix that,” said Hazel’s son. Despite the latest round of adversity he faces, Hazel said the support of the community has also been what’s given him the strength to keep fighting. “I’m just so grateful to this community because they’ve always given so much to me,” said Hazel. “They’ve actually given me much more than I’ve given to them.” For more information about the benefit or to make a donation toward the event including donating auction or raffle items, contact Marc Hazel at 335-0429. Contributions may also be mailed in care of Gordon Hazel to 1474 Cumberland Head Road, Plattsburgh N.Y. 12901.
P. from Paul Smiths. “Our region needs a new industry. Sure, we will always have the service industry, but who wants to be servants in there own land?” “The state has taken away the ability for many Adirondack residents to earn a living, they’ve locked up the land in regulations,” explained Bill Osborn. “They must invest as much money in the preservation of the park’s communities as they have in the preservation of the park’s land.” “We need to find an environmentally friendly, low impact industry to bring their
business to the park. We need to have economic development incentives and they have to be significant. We need software designers, production services, film or other employers,” Osborn continued, “and with the proper infrastructure, local communities can promote telecommuting so that their employees can take advantage of the quality of life options the region offers and still maintain a career.” In essence, the Adirondacks can no longer be viewed as a giant amusement park for tourists and second home owners. If communities are
NORTH COUNTRYMAN - 7
going to thrive rather than simply survive, there is a desperate need for well paying jobs that rely on intellect rather than extraction. The same quality of life issues, which many consider so important in attracting new business and new homeowners to the region, are rapidly deteriorating as school districts condense, communities contract and bright flight draws youth from their home towns If visitors begin to perceive the region as consisting of small, dying towns separated by long stretches of desolate roadways, the future of the
park will be sealed. The Adirondack region must offer more than a few, seasonally prosperous communities like Lake Placid, Lake George and Old Forge. The effort will require imaginative minds, creative opportunities and a major investment in infrastructure. If preservation of the land is the ultimate goal for the park, there must also be a corresponding effort initiated to insure the preservation of the park’s small towns. These communities are central to the ‘quality of life’ that makes the
region so unique. The endeavor will require a major
investment
in
our
youth, for they will determine the future of both land and community. We must provide them with an inheritance that offers more than busing tables or turning down beds.

HELP FOR HOMEOWNERS IN FORECLOSURE NEW YORK STATE LAW REQUIRES THAT WE SEND YOU THIS NOTICE ABOUT THE FORECLOSURE PROCESS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY. SUMMONS AND COMPLAINT YOU ARE IN DANGER OF LOSING YOUR HOME. IF YOU FAIL TO RESPOND TO THE SUMMONS AND COMPLAINT IN THIS FORECLOSURE ACTION, YOU MAY LOSE YOUR HOME. PLEASE READ THE SUMMONS AND COMPLAINT CAREFULLY. YOU SHOULD IMMEDIATELY CONTACT AN ATTORNEY OR YOUR LOCAL LEGAL AID OFFICE TO OBTAIN ADVICE ON HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF. SOURCES OF INFORMATION AND ASSISTANCE The state encourages you to become informed about your options in foreclosure. In addition to seeking assistance from an attorney or legal aid office, there are government agencies and non-profit organizations that you may contact for information about possible options, including trying to work with your lender during this process. To locate an entity near you, you may call the toll-free helpline maintained by the New York State Banking Department at 1-877-BANKNYS (1-877-226-5697) or visit the department's website at WWW.BANKING.STATE.NY.US . FORECLOSURE RESCUE SCAMS Be careful of people who approach you with offers to "save" your home. There are individuals who watch for notices of foreclosure actions in order to unfairly profit from a homeowner's distress. You should be extremely careful about any such promises and any suggestions that you pay them a fee or sign over your deed. State law requires anyone offering such services for profit to enter into a contract which fully describes the services they will perform and fees they will charge, and which prohibits them from taking any money from you until they have completed all such promised services. § 1303 NOTICE NOTICE YOU ARE IN DANGER OF LOSING YOUR HOME If you do not respond to this summons and complaint by serving a copy of the answer on the attorney for the mortgage company who filed this foreclosure proceeding against you and filing the answer with the court, a default judgment may be entered and you can lose your home. Speak to an attorney or go to the court where your case is pending for further information on how to answer the summons and protect your property. Sending a payment to your mortgage company will not stop this foreclosure action. YOU MUST RESPOND BY SERVING A COPY OF THE ANSWER ON THE ATTORNEY FOR THE PLAINTIFF (MORTGAGE COMPANY) AND FILING THE ANSWER WITH THE COURT. DATED: July 29, 2009 Steven J. Baum, P.C., Attorney(s) For Plaintiff(s), 220 Northpointe Parkway Suite G, Amherst, NY 14228 The law firm of Steven J. Baum, P.C. and the attorneys whom it employs are debt collectors who are attempting to collect a debt. Any information obtained by them will be used for that purpose.
