The battle that took place before Plattsburgh By Stephen Bartlett stephen@denpubs.com BEEKMANTOWN — The British gathered a large army at Chambly, Quebec, just north of the border, a buildup that, by August 1814, had reached approximately 16,000 under the command of General Sir George Prevost. There were 3,400 soldiers left in Plattsburgh under the command of Macomb, and of those, only 1,500 were effective fighting men. British advance units crossed the border to Champlain at the end of August, 1814. “It is the first of September, and here they come,” said Col. David Fitz-Enz, a retired military man, author and lecturer. Fitz-Enz narrated a re-enactment of the first War of 1812 battle in Clinton County in Beekmantown. The British Army of 11,000 under Prevost massed at Champlain and marched toward Plattsburgh. This battle in Beekmantown represents the first fighting in the area before the Battle of Plattsburgh.

Battle of Plattsburgh commemorated By Stephen Bartlett

stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Soldiers marched in columns past the Champlain monument in Plattsburgh, stopped within 100 yards of the enemy near the edge of Lake Champlain and fired, the smoke from their weapons reaching past the barrels as if to claim those still standing. On Lake Champlain, the blast of cannons echoed across the waters, nearly covered by the fog of war. It was 2012, but on that day, Plattsburgh stepped back to 1814 and the battle that became one of the decisive factors of the War of 1812. “The battles took place for a two-and-a- half to three-hour period,” said Keith Herkalo, Plattsburgh City Clerk, historian, author and narrator for the Battle of Plattsburgh re-enactment. “Everyone thinks the most important battle of 1812 was New Orleans, but it was a diversion. The British didn’t want it.” The British sent 16,000 troops to North America and instructions to Lieutenant General Sir George Prevost to invade American territory. Prevost advanced down Lake Champlain, fighting briefly in Beekmantown in early September as he headed for Plattsburgh with 11,000 troops. The British navy was to take control of Lake Champlain. In late August, Major General George Izard had taken about 4,000 American troops to reinforce Sackett’s Harbor, leaving Brigadier General Alexander Macomb in command at Plattsburgh with 1,500 American regulars. Most of them were recruits and invalids. General Benjamin Mooers called on militia from Vermont and

New York, although those men were largely untrained. Plattsburgh’s residents, nearly all 3,000 of them, fled the city. On Sept. 11, 1814, at around 9 a.m., the British squadron attacked American ships on Lake Champlain. British naval squadron commander, Captain George Downie, was quickly killed. British gunboats withdrew and British officers surrendered. “There were 10 gunboats on each side, and none of them sank,” Herkalo said. Many of the British dead are to this day buried at a mass grave on Crab Island. Prevost’s attack was to begin when the naval battle started but got underway about an hour later than planned. The Americans gained an early advantage. As Red Coats fell during the re-enactment in Plattsburgh, people from the crowd, the smell of gunpowder in their nostrils, shouted, “We got one. We got one. Finish them off.” Seemingly in response, more bodies fell as drums pushed the soldiers forward and children laughed with their parents. During the real battle, when Prevost learned Downie’s ship had been defeated, he called retreat, knowing any further attack was worthless without naval support. The Battle of Plattsburgh ended the final invasion of the northern states during the War of 1812. America used the victory at Plattsburgh to demand exclusive rights to Lake Champlain and deny the British exclusive rights to the Great Lakes. The victory at Plattsburgh and British failure at Baltimore prevented the British from making demands for territorial gains in the Treaty of Ghent. “Plattsburgh was the most important battle in the War of 1812,” Herkalo said.

North Countryman Editorial

Difficult times: Difficult decisions

A

s local school boards are constantly searching for areas to make financial cuts with the minimalist effect on student curriculum, more schools should consider consolidation. Two questions that must be asked when considering consolidation are: Will there be noticeable financial savings and can the districts maintain a quality education? Consolidation, though not always an ideal aspect for some, is a logical consideration during tough economic times. The budget season was difficult for districts last year and districts will definitely be facing a similar plight this year. Pooling resources doesn’t always require cutting positions to make budget goals. Consolidating space, equipment and practice space for student athletes and musicians would be utilizing what schools already have while reaping the benefits of cost savings, and keeping the curriculum intact. Consolidation is never an easy decision. Schools are the center of our local communities, and taking that away is always controversial. But dwindling class sizes and burgeoning property taxes demand that school officials consider these difficult options. Take Putnam Central School for example, which had 35 children enrolled in its school at the end of the 2011-2012 school year. Would it make better financial sense to divide these students between Whitehall and Ticonderoga? Or does a school like Putnam offer a more individualized education? Keeping student needs in the forefront is the first priority when talking about consolidation or making cuts in any district. Consolidating an entire school district could also have major consequences for the small community of Putnam. The parents and students could feel detached, and it would likely create longer commutes to school and extra-curricular activities, with children feeling less attached to their hometown. Decisions to consolidate districts are best made on an individual, case-by-case basis —what’s best for Plattsburgh City

Schools will not always be best for Minerva-Newcomb Central School. Some districts in the area have growing enrollments and their resources, administration team and facilities are being used to capacity, while other schools might benefit from each other’s strengths. Consolidation of administrative offices might be more seamless. School superintendent positions could be merged through attrition as officials retire or resign. Another area that should be considered is the consolidation of sports teams. Some local schools have such low student numbers that they cannot field a team in every available sport. When they can, they often are not competitive, or young athletes might not be afforded the rest they need during a game because of a lack of substitutes. This season alone, Crown Point Central School’s girls soccer team, with just 11 players, was nearly unable to begin the season. The team was able to make it but it was right down to the last minute. The girls in Schroon Lake were in a similar situation. Consolidating sports teams would save districts money on equipment and coaching staff, while utilizing a shared field would create savings and bring strong athletes together to work hard and encourage competitiveness and endurance. Shared services could offer an alternative to cutting programs in a school, while keeping staff on the payrolls and saving taxpayer dollars. Difficult times demand difficult decisions. As school officials enter another demanding budget season, they must take a long look at merging as many resources as possible. Nothing should be left off the table — not even studying the financial benefits of merging with a nearby district.

Just the facts ... please N

ow that we’ve put the two national political party’s conventions behind us, we can focus on the next big events — the upcoming debates. I hope you did as I did and watched the conventions on C-SPAN, where the action can be viewed live, without commercial interruption or biased commentary. C-SPAN allows viewers to draw their own conclusions by allowing them to hear and watch what they want. Modern-day conventions are designed to be marketing events instead of a wide-open process. Recognizing that each side plays heavily to their member base, I doubt either side did much to sway a previously committed voter. I also doubt many uncommitted voters will make a decision until closer to Election Day. For those who’ve made up their minds, I’m sure the rest of this campaign season will reinforce why their vote will be cast for their candidate. The spin plays to their heart, not their reason. Based on statistics, the vast majority of us have already made up our minds on which candidate we’re going to vote for. It is possible that voters could be swayed either way by the upcoming coverage, candidate debates, or some national event or revelation that could create a major shift in either direction, though. More than anything we owe it to ourselves, the nation and future generations to do more than accept the campaign rhetoric, and that especially goes for those who are firmly committed. Vice President Joe Biden recently challenged the press to “fact check” his statements. I think that’s excellent advice for each of us to follow. A good web site is factcheck.org, a project of the Annenberg Public Policy Center of the University of Pennsylvania. The site offers a quiz of the week, specific articles on the many speeches, Whoppers of 2012, a Mailbag feature that allows an opportunity for the public to present their points of contention with the candidates, the parties and even question the clarifications made by Fact Check. Another important feature is called Viral Spiral, which is designed to put an end to the many inaccurate, and sometimes very old, internet emails that never seem to die in cyberspace. If you have an email account you undoubtedly know someone who regularly sends you one of these pieces. They all sound believable, but all too often the information is non-factual and attributed to reliable sources who didn’t produce the information, but that the sender, without checking, assumed was reliable and accurate because it reinforces what they want to believe. Another useful site that should be consulted is opensecrets.org, sponsored by The Center for Responsive Politics. Opensecrets.org claims to be a nonpartisan guide to money's influence on U.S. elections and public policy. They encourage journalists, activists, students and any other interested citizens to use the free site to shine light on the govern-

ment and those who wish to use it for their benefit. Opensecrets.org claims to be the most comprehensive resource for federal campaign Dan Alexander Thoughts from contributions, lobbying Behind the Pressline data and analysis available anywhere. They provide their findings to other organizations and news media, and the Center's exclusive data powers their online features, which track money in politics. The Center relies on financial support from a combination of foundation grants, individual contributions and income earned from custom research and licensing data for commercial use. The Center accepts no contributions from businesses, labor unions or trade associations. Yet another useful site is publicintegrity.org, sponsored by the Center for Public Integrity. The Center for Public Integrity was founded in 1989 by Charles Lewis and claims to be one of the nation’s oldest and largest nonpartisan, nonprofit news organizations. Their mission is to enhance democracy by revealing abuses of power, corruption and betrayal of trust by powerful public and private institutions. Inaccurate and outright twisting of the truth is at the root of so many decisions people are making today. The Media, Internet and Social Media are full of inaccurate statements and information. It’s no wonder the political machines have become so skilled at spinning this stuff. If we continue to accept what we’re told without qualifying the information, we are the ones at fault for the direction this country takes. We’ve been told by both parties and each presidential and vice presidential candidate how important this election is to the future direction of the country. Both sides believe there have never been such diverse differences between the two sides and it’s up to us to ultimately decide. I urge each of us to do our homework before casting a vote. Given the current state of the country we need to hold these candidates and their parties accountable for their statements and actions. Despite what your heart and personal convictions tell you to believe, we owe it to future generations, if not ourselves, to know where the truth stops and the spin begins. Many of you may take the position that since both sides employ these tactics, what difference does it really make? Well, my comeback is simple: Until we know the real truth we will never be able to put this country on the right path. If we can’t depend on our elected officials we have no choice but to take matters into our own hands and demand they change their ways. If we don’t do that, then we deserve exactly what we’re getting. Dan Alexander is publisher and CEO of Denton Publications. He may be reached at dan@denpubs.com.

If ignorance is bliss then there sure are a lot of happy people

I

s it easier and more fulfilling around the time of the Mayor’s Cup, Battle of Plattsburgh and Fourth of July, a number of people vomit a chunky pile of ignorance and cruelty all around me. I try to avoid it, but it’s seemingly everywhere, and before I know it, I am swimming up to my neck, and even as I sit up in bed writing this, I can smell the stench in my hair, taste it on my tongue and feel it layered over my flesh. To this day I haven’t figured out how to avoid the disease seeping from the mouths of these individuals. And I know they aren’t going to stop, because they are compelled, by every dysfunctional fiber of their being, to detest what they have labeled the North Country’s “finest.” I remember the first few times I heard this phrase and the venom and intense hatred that carried it. I wondered if they were discussing a roaming band of pedophiles, maybe a ruthless gang of sociopaths who giggled as they cracked the skulls of defenseless old ladies enjoying fresh air as they leaned on their walkers outside the nursing home, perhaps a roaming band of meter maids whose earnings were solely generated by ticket output. A shiver ran up and down my

spine and I damned myself for selling my black 12 gage with the pistol grip. How would I protect myself? My family? But then I discovered who they despised, and I had to excuse myself to go vomit. They were talking about — and I apologize for the generalizations and possibly offensive language — the poor, uneducated rednecks and white trash. Not the harmful, dangerous and malicious bunch of these groups, but simply ordinary poor, uneducated red necks and white trash. You see, the people they despised cussed, were prone to excited outbursts at times that made those casting judgment uncomfortable, and they dressed inappropriately. Well, those were the claims at least, and I quickly learned they stemmed from what the elitists had determined, for themselves and everyone else, to be appropriate. So I started paying attention, and quickly discovered that more people make up the groups deemed disgusting than the actual dictators, though that is how it often seems to work in history. I deduced that, in general, the groups did indeed swear often, did not wear chinos and button-ups and

Stephen Bartlett

From the Editor’s Desk comfortably expressed their emotions, loudly at times, and in theatrical ways. I didn’t see anything wrong with wearing dress pants adhering to the social norms the elitists had chosen as appropriate, but I wondered why they projected them on everyone else and judged harshly when their rules were broken. It seemed as though, upon close examination, that those judgments stemmed from inferiority complexes, delusions of grandeur and intense insecurities, but I quickly reminded myself I was supposed to be studying the poor, rednecks and white

trash. It didn’t matter that the elitists seemed in dire need of loosening up and did not in fact have a monopoly on social norms, but who was I to judge? Still, as I overheard swearing among the marginalized and socalled inappropriate discussions, I couldn’t help but wonder who decided the “F” word should be frowned upon. And in terms of inappropriate discussions, I was at a local gathering of business professionals, during which one individual complained that providing employees with a livable wage and adequate health care would cut into the three expensive vacations he took every year. Another bragged about backing politicians who support legislation that oppress the marginalized. Perhaps they should be recognized for avoiding cuss words and speaking “appropriately,” but their discussions sure seemed offensive to me. Clothing norms consistently confuse me. Years ago I covered an event on casual Friday in a T-shirt and jeans and was chastised by organizers and other attendees. They would not respect me nor take me seriously because of my “offensive” outfit. I countered I should be judged by my work and was told to grow up.

Presidential election offers competing philosophies To the North Countryman: It seems that this election will be about two competing philosophies. The first one is the "Great American Experiment" of a free people, living and working in a free marketplace,versus a big government system with government getting more involved in more and more aspects of our lives to "make things better" with regulations, laws, and reallocating of resources more "fairly". The first one, the entrepreneurial free market system, based on the worth of individual effort is the great engine that has brought us from a fledgling wilderness nation to the most vibrant, richest peoples in the world. It is a system where 300+ million people making billions of decisions large and small every day. This is what makes the free market work, not a few dozen government experts deciding what is best for us. With the power of our entrepreneurial spirit, this great free enterprise engine over 200+ years ( with a few exceptions and corrections) has carried America on a constant upward path to a better life for everyone. Even the poorest American would be considered well off in most of the world. I'm not saying the government doesnt have an important roll to play, it does. And it's roles are enumerated in our constitution. The other philosophy, the big government system in recent years has been burdening that engine with expensive regulations, punishing taxes, and a strong demoralizing , left wing anti-business agenda which slowing the ability of that engine to pull us all up that hill. Under President Obama, that trend has been put on steroids. It seems success has to be punished, even if it means less jobs created. We have the highest unemployment since Jimmy Carter in 1979. ( the REAL worst economy since the great depression) 12% unemployment, 21% interest rates, and 15% inflation. Yer we vilify the job creators. We raise taxes and redistribute the wealth. This only works until you run

out of other peoples money. (Margaret Thacher) Dr. Milton Freidman the great defender of free markets said about Government control " if you put our government in charge of the Sahara Desert, in 5 years, we would have a shortage of sand." Let's compare how the 2 philosophies have worked. South Korea, since that country was divided has boomed and become a prosperous, modern nation. While North Korea has gone nowhere during the same period. Their people are starving in the dark due to complete government control. Before Ronald Reagen ended the Cold War victoriously, East Germany couldn't even provide even the most basic need for it's people. I know, because my father was from there, and when he sent care packages to his relatives in Plauen, his boyhood home, the most asked for item was toilet paper. The second was soap. See, under free markets today's luxuries become tomorrows necessities, and under Socialism, or communism, today's necessities become tomorrows luxuries. You see, centralized government has never worked. West Germany on the other hand, became an economic powerhouse, and when the wall came down, they absorbed the demoralized East Germans, and now they are the economic leader of Europe. Another example of the power of free markets is one country during two eras. China under Mao was a complete disaster, despite complete control, and several unsuccessful "great leaps forward" over many sad unproductive years where millions died. Then after Mao, they let just a little entrenaurship in. Since then they've been the fastest growing economy in the world AND the ATM machine to finance Obama's path to economic ruin. Government makes laws and regulations to make things better, but often, unintended consequences of these rules make things worse.

ur featured pet this week is Mindy, a gorgeous, tortoiseshell-patterned Domestic Shorthair-mix who has bewitching golden eyes and a sweet personality. Mindy takes a few minutes to warm up to strangers, but once she does, she's a big, cuddly purring machine who loves to be held and petted. Once she is in her "comfort zone," Minday is very mellow, has excellent manners, and gets along well with other cats. If you are looking for a feline who is beautiful in both appearance and personality, Mindy is the cat for you. Why not stop by and spend a few minutes getting to know her today? We are sure you won't be disappointed.

Look, if you want to wear a suit and tie while shopping for underwear at Walmart, fine, but don’t judge someone you pass who is wearing torn jeans and a shirt with a beer can on it, showing obvious affection to his or her children while you play on your smart phone and ignore yours. Finally, I welcome excited outbursts. I was at the fair and witnessed one man yell, "That sh*t was cool," and another say to his wife, "Yes, well dear, wasn't that an appropriate color for that clown's outfit?" I wondered if the latter was enjoying himself. Passionate outbursts reveal passion and that the vessel displaying them has emotions. Plus, I like knowing who I am dealing with and appreciate someone who vibrantly shows anger, happiness and sadness. I worry about smiles that mask emotions and intentions, subsequently masking the truth. What if behind that smile your demise is being planned? I lived in a Kansas trailer court and had great respect for my neighbor who had no qualms telling me he wanted to kick my butt. No guessing involved there.

Take the housing collapse, and the ensuing recession. Of course, the blame was put on president Bush, because it happened on his watch. But it started with the "Community Developement act" in 1996 under Clinton. This act mandated mortages to people who didn't have the means to pay them back. The banks balked at this, saying they couldn't put bad loans on their books, it was bad business practice. The government said " Just do it, and Fannie Mae, and Freddid Mac would cover the loans the banks said "Cool, we can do that." So the banks started writing risky loans, and more risky loans, and home prices went up and up making more and more people wanted to get in on this great "scheme". we had a housing boom, but something seemed wrong. George Bush(the beneficiary of the boom) began to worry, and asked congress for an investigation of Fannie and Freddie and all these mortgages,and mortgage backed securities floating around. Senators Dodd and Frank democrats in charge of overseeing Fannie and Freddie said "nonsense", and no investigation ensued.when the house of cards collapsed, so did the economy.those responsible took no blame. Instead it was easier to blame Bush, who should have pushed harder on the investigation harder, but the whole thing started 11 years earlier. One other exammple of unintended consequences is the $20 raise we all got by not paying all our Social Security taxes to buy votes in the 2010 election. It didn't buy many votes (thank God) , but it cost Social Security 16 billion dollars, and shortened it's life expectancy by two years. One more example: The Fed has kept interest rates near zero for years to stimulate the economy. It hasn't done much good, but the unintended consequence of this is that people who worked hard and saved all there lives to live comfortably in their retirement are getting no interest on these savings.

Nonprofit sheds light on mental illness with help from soup PLATTSBURGH – Cindy Cordle survived 23 years of abuse and a divorce providing escape as she moved from Alabama to Plattsburgh. But her ordeal continued. Disabled by bipolar disorder and depression, mental illness continued to brutalize her until she sought the help of the National Alliance on Mental Illness, which has an office on Healey Avenue in Plattsburgh that serves Clinton, Essex and Franklin counties. “NAMI brought me out of a lot of it,” she said at the organization’s annual soup cookoff. Cordle helped set up the event that raises money for the National Alliance on Mental Illness, which provides support and comfort to those stricken with mental illness and others impacted by it and combats stigma associated with mental illness. “Uniqueness is fine,” said Theresa Bennett, a member of the local chapter ’s board of directors. The National Alliance on Mental Illness, founded in 1979, is a nonprofit advocacy group that represents families and people affected by mental illness. The group provides support, education, advocacy and research for people and their families living with mental illness. It has organizations in all 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. There was no signature fundraiser when Bennett started on the board the National Alliance on Mental Illness of Champlain Valley. They wanted one that furthered the mission statement. They provide support and comfort to families and say uniqueness is fine, so a soup cook-off started with categories for most unique and most comforting. Local businesses donate soups, and this is the third year the event has been held during the Battle of Plattsburgh. “Some of the soups are unbelievable,” Bennett said. The event has raised $1,200 the last two years with more expected this time around. This year the funds raised go toward the Columbia Teen Screen program. Bennett said there is a high need for mental health services in the area. Services provided by the National Alliance on Mental Illness are free. “We are very fortunate in our area to have grants and an office and staff,” Bennett said. “We provide more services than most NAMI

groups.” Mental illness touches nearly every family, she pointed out, and is recognized as a disability, yet there is still stigma associated with it. “You can have a responsible job and have a diagnosis,” Bennett said. “NAMI wants to shine a light on it.” The soup cook-off was an opportunity for the public to show its support for community organizations that provide free services to all with a mental illness, said Amanda Bulris, executive director of the National Alliance on Mental Illness of Champlain Valley. Since receiving help from the National Alliance on Mental Illness, Cordle has gotten over her fear of talking with people, found permanent housing and medical insurance, and volunteers. “It is very rewarding.”

Making cider the hard way By Shaun Kittle

shaun@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Everett Orchards has given an edge to an autumn tradition. The sixth-generation farm, settled in 1815, began making hard cider in 2004 using Cortland and McIntosh apples, two apple cultivars not often used for that purpose. “The apples we started making the hard cider with are more typical of dessert apples,” said cider maker Tom Everett, who co-owns Everett Orchards with Debbie, Julie and Bill Everett. After attending a class about growing fruit offered by the Cornell Cooperative Extension in 2008, Tom learned that cider variety apples, which are more common in Europe, are ideal for hard cider. Now, Chisel Jersey, Brown snout, Kingston black and Hereford red streak are some of the apple varieties added to Everett Orchards’ 185 acres of apple orchards. The apple varieties fall into two main categories: bittersweet and bittersharp. As the names imply, bittersharp is a little more acidic, has a sharper taste and isn’t as sweet as the bittersweets. The abundance of tannin in the fruit gives it its astringency. “The cider varieties are exclusively grown for the hard cider; eating them fresh isn’t very good,”

Local families, businesses to hold fundraisers for young cancer patient By Katherine Clark

katherine@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — On a mild Labor Day morning, 5-year-old leukemia patient Matthew Wood of Plattsburgh courageously walked Main Street in Au Sable Forks wearing his Team Matthew orange tie-dyed Tshirt. Four weeks prior to the walk, Wood was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Since his diagnosis, his life and his family’s life have changed dramatically. His mother, Kasi Rockwell, said her son went from being an active young boy and playing with his sisters to losing energy quickly and being unable to play like he’s always done. “Just the other day he had trouble getting the strength to walk a few steps and it was unbelievable how he walked through the whole parade,” Wood’s aunt, Danyle Rockwell, said. Kasi said the news of her son’s cancer was both shocking and devastating for their whole family. “His sisters have been there 100 percent for him, going to doctors appointments and making things more comfortable for him,” Kasi said. “It’s just hard for everyone. This has completely shifted all of our lives.” Kasi said she first noticed her son was sick when he started bruising in unusual places. The bruises were not the normal little boy bruises she expected to see on her active child. He was bruised in his arm pits and

stomach and when the nose bleeds began she knew something was wrong. “We took him to the doctors, and that night we were bringing him to Burlington and he started treatment, having chemotherapy injected into his spine,” Kasi said.

Family fight Wood’s family, facing many unexpected expenses due to his illness, are still facing a long road to Matthew’s recovery. Kasi, who worked at the Homestead Restaurant, had to take a leave of absence from work to be there for her son full-time. “His treatment has been ongoing with two trips a week to Fletcher Allen Health Care in Burlington,” Danyle said. “He’s looking at a 3-year treatment, there is still a long road ahead.” Kasi said the support from the community has been a great help and she wanted to thank those who have helped. “I never thought I would be someone who needed help from the community. I never thought this would happen to our family,” Kasi said.

Fundraising As his treatment had an aggressive beginning, so has the help from the community. Danyle said she began planning fundraising efforts immediately. Danyle is selling orange and white tye-dye T-shirts and orange wristbands, the color of leukemia support. She has also arranged several fundraisers,

to support Matthew’s recovery for diners who mention the charity between 4 and 8 p.m. Danyle said the support from the community has been overwhelming as she has received donations and sponsorship for events from many area businesses. There will also be a tattoo benefit sponsored by Marked Man Tattoo in Schuyler Falls on Oct. 20. “It’s a really different kind of fundraiser, some of our family members plan on getting a tattoo of the leukemia support ribbon,” Danyle said.

Beekmantown

“These wives, women and children stayed with them for the entire campaign,” Fitz-Enz said. “This was how war was fought those days.” The fighting began Sept. 6, as British forces hit the American regulars at dawn, meeting the Americans just north of Beekmantown Corners. The majority of the militia fell back in disorder, leaving as some remained to contest the advance. Fighting continued at Culver Hill, where Lieutenant Col. James Wellington was killed. Regulars and militia retreated to Halsey’s Corners, continuing to contest the advance. Roughly 250 men fought from behind a stone wall. The Americans fired their cannon and rifles, but the British charged with their bayonets and they retreated. “General Prevost is getting frantic,” Fitz-Enz said. “He is now more than five days from the border, and he knows the American army is dug in at Plattsburgh. “Halsey’s Corners is the last contact before the British entered Plattsburgh.”

from page 1 Civilians fled Plattsburgh and orders were given to all American forces to delay the British advance. The hope was this would provide enough time to complete fortifications in Plattsburgh. “Militia are trying to ascertain how big the force was,” Fitz-Enz said. “They want to find out how many there are and where they are going.” As Prevost’s army marches to Chazy, a group of a little more than 100 riflemen fell back, destroying bridges along the way. The British army marched through West Chazy to an encampment two miles north of Beekmantown Corners. “Only 700 militia showed up,” Fitz-Enz said. “The rest were busy selling the British supplies.” This was a small force compared to a British column that extended 10 miles long, with women and children marching in the end. They made up the auxiliary corps, taking care of the cooking, cleaning, medical responsibilities and more.

Seven inexpensive ways to update a home now 4. Change knobs or small accents. Give a room a new look by focusing on the small details. Switch out cabinet knobs for something updated and modern. Take inventory of wall outlets and light switches and think about selecting new ones that coordinate with your home decor.

Throw pillows are accessories that can easily and inexpensively change the look of a space.

Oftentimes, buying a home opens up a bottomless pit of opportunities for projects and improvements. While some homeowners engage in different repairs and fix-ups out of necessity, many others like to freshen-up their spaces out of personal preference instead of need. But even the most wellintentioned projects can be waylaid if budgets are tight.

1. Move around furniture. You may be able to change the look of a room without spending any money. Interior designers know how to arrange furniture for maximum appeal, but the average homeowner can do it, too. Find a focal point in the room and angle the furniture toward it. Don’t make the focal point the television, however. Try changing the placement of chairs and sofas. Simply moving a curio cabinet from one corner to another may also make a difference.

6. Hang new wall art. It may be time to look at your photos and artwork and make a few adjustments. Finding new prints to hang could instantly change a room’s ambience. And you needn’t spend a lot of money on professional photography, either. Grab your camera and take a few close-

7. Try a new coat of paint. After you’ve exhausted other avenues, choosing a new paint color may be the new look you desire. Painting is one of the least expensive yet most dramatic methods of changing a home’s interior. With dozens of hues to choose from, and new apps that enable you to take

2. Add lighting. Lighting at different levels in the room can create a vibrant impact. Many homeowners mistakenly put in a couple of table lamps and think that will be adequate.

3. Add new pillows or drapes. Changing a few aspects of a room can give it an entirely new look. If you want to add a splash of color but don’t know what to do, think about incorporating some new throw pillows or change the curtains. An accessory here and there in a bright color also can incorporate a new hue without it being overwhelming.

What many homeowners may not realize is that there are many ways to make updates and changes to a home that do not require a major overhaul or a large price tag. The following are seven projects that won’t break the bank.

However, properly illuminating a room means varying the lighting to create different moods at different times. Plus, more light can make a room feel more welcoming.

5. Use plants. Empty corners or spots you’re not certain how to fill may benefit from a plant. Plants are inexpensive ways to add instant color and visual

appeal to a room. Plus, having live plants can help improve indoor air by filtering out contaminants. A home with plants also feels more cozy.

The “civil� War of 1812 By Stephen Bartlett

stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH – The War of 1812 was a “civil� war between competing visions of North America, said Alan Taylor. The historian and author of books about colonial America, the American Revolution, and the Early American Republic spoke recently at Plattsburgh State, sharing concepts outlined in his book, “The Civil War of 1812: American Citizens, British Subjects, Irish Rebels, & Indian Allies,� published by Alfred A. Knopf in 2010. Taylor was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for earlier work. Taylor started by noting the United States was on the verge of losing the war when the Battle of Plattsburgh helped turned the tide. “The Battle of Plattsburgh was very important but not well remembered.� He further pointed out that during the first two years of the war, the U.S. was invading Canada and suffering great defeats, a part of history Canadians remember but Americans have forgotten. He stressed that his book is a borderlands history that attempts to avoid the Canadian and American patriotic stories. Instead, it focuses on the remarkably similar people on

the borders who did not want to go to war. Taylor told of a British officer conducting a prisoner exchange who found it strange to find names among the American ranks that matched those of his own officers. “They read the same books and went to the same plays.� Saying it was Americans fighting the British simplifies a war in which brother sometimes fought brother; the two sides at times were seemingly interchangeable. The British insisted anyone born in Scotland was a subject for life, whether they lived in Canada or Ireland. The United States was in the business of welcoming immigrants and making them Americans, actions the British said were fine as long as America understood if such a subject was found on a merchant ship the individual could be confiscated for the crown’s needs. “A whole lot of people were being taken who were born in the United States,� Taylor said. “The Irish were not happy about this.� The British had suppressed a rebellion in Ireland with great bloodshed, and the Irish in America would end up being about the strongest supporters of the war against the British. Irish Americans accounted for 9 percent of the American population, yet they made up 13 percent of the enlisted population, and those numbers were likely higher as they hid their identities because the British considered them traitors.

In Canada, the Red Coats’ ranks were filled with men recruited in Ireland, thousands of people desperate for a paycheck and food. “When American forces invade Canada and many get captured, the British made it a practice to listen to their voices,� Taylor said. Those suspected of trea- Dr. Alan Taylor signing books after his discussion son could face a on the War of 1812 at Plattsburgh State. trial that could kill them or join the British forces. “Desertion is flowing back and forth between armies,� Taylor said. Many Native Americans fought as British allies in hopes of rolling back U.S. settlements in the west. At times, tribes slaughtered each other during the war. “People may argue over who won the War of 1812, but there is no argument over who lost it: the native peoples,� Taylor said.

Dave Kimmel eyes state Assembly seat By Stephen Bartlett

stephen@denpubs.com CADYVILLE — Dave Kimmel, a career military man, served in an elite anti-terrorism unit that responded to the September 11 attacks, pulling into New York City early that morning. By lunch, ordinary citizens filled the streets and handed out water, inspired by a strong desire to be part of the solution that tragic day. “We are unstoppable, and we are indeed the empire state,” Kimmel said. As he heads into the Republican primary with Karen Bisso, both hoping to unseat incumbent Janet Duprey, Kimmel vows to approach Albany with that in mind: “We are unstoppable and we are the empire state.” This is Kimmel’s second attempt at the Assembly seat. The history buff said that throughout time, growth was preceded by improvements in communication and transportation.

“I want to focus on communication and transportation innovations,” Kimmel said. Kimmel has significant experience communicating through broadband in some of the most remote parts of the country. His goal is to build pervasive broadband throughout the entire district. Kimmel’s transportation plan revolves around innovation in the way the state builds roads and bridges. He wants legislation that allows for public and private partnerships. He warned against settling for bridges that won’t meet today’s or tomorrow’s needs because of costs. He would approach individuals in private business and allow them to, for example, share in toll receipts if they build the bridge. Kimmel called for health insurance mandate relief, saying there was an overabundance of health insurance mandates that the business community has identified for a decade as inhibiting their ability to hire, maintain employees and grow.

“I have come up with an innovative plan,” Kimmel said. He proposed that as long as a health insurance company offers a single plan that provides every mandate on the books it should also be able to offer a plan that has a baseline or portion of mandates. “The states growing in this country have about half the mandates we have,” Kimmel said. “There is a relationship between economic growth and mandates. “Health insurance mandates are out of control in New York State.” Kimmel would reign in the costs of Medicaid without alienating the people who need it the most. He said New York spends twice as much on Medicaid as California yet insures half as many people. Something must be done about fraud, waste and abuse within Medicaid. Kimmel pointed to a New York Times report that indicated 10 to 20 percent of the annual bill is fraud, waste and abuse.

Dave Kimmel “That is where I want to attack the problem first,” Kimmel said. “I want to build a non-partisan coalition to see what we could do different in Medicaid.” He would use the savings in Medicaid to cover the costs of expanding broadband. “We need to listen to people, but there also comes some points as a leader when you must act,” Kimmel said.

ALBANY — Robert Zayas knows about making bold moves. Growing up in a military family, Zayas bounced between Maine, the state he was born in, and Texas and Turkey. The day after the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, Zayas volunteered to talk to an Austin television station about what he was teaching his O’Henry Middle School history students about the events in New York City and Arlington, Va. After joining the New Mexico Activities Association in 2002, Zayas remodeled its website, directed the state’s high school soccer, swimming and track meets, worked as the media relations person and established a “Life of an Athlete” program modeled after the prototype created in New York. Now Zayas has uprooted his young family to the Capital District, where he has been hired to run the New York State Public High School Athletic Association. Zayas, 36, said being named NYSPHSAA’s sixth executive director is a “dream job” for him. “I’m a big high school sports fan,” said Zayas. “For me, there’s nothing purer than high school athletic competition.” Zayas said he wasn’t sure he would get the job when he applied for it. “Coming into a state athletic association and getting an executive director ’s job is incredibly difficult,” said Zayas. “To do that from 2,000 miles away is even more difficult.” What Zayas had going for him was his work with the NMAA’s tournaments and website. He increased the net revenues for New Mexico’s soccer, swimming and track meets by lowering expenses, and he improved the organization’s web presence by redesigning the site to include more news topics and game results. “Every time he took over a tournament, he took it to another level,” said NMAA Assistant Director for Marketing Dusty Young, who worked closely with Zayas. “Not only did he make these events first class, but he also did his best to cut costs.” Zayas said he would like to implement those ideas with NYSPHSAA, but his first task is to learn as much as he can about the organization’s 11 member sections and their needs.

Robert Zayas, the new executive director of the New York State Public High School Athletic Association. “I want to do three things. I want to listen, I want to learn and I want to evaluate,” said Zayas. Before Zayas officially took over as executive director Sept. 1, he spent the previous week working closely with his predecessor, Nina Van Erk. The two traveled to western New York for meetings with the Section V and VI directors, and Zayas went over the rules and regulations with Van Erk. “I have incredibly big shoes to fill in replacing Nina,” said Zayas. “Just in the past four days, I’ve learned the amount of knowledge she has about rules and regulations is incredible.” Van Erk, who is taking over as Section VIII (Nassau County) executive director, said there are certain aspects of running NYSPHSAA she will miss. “The day-to-day interaction with the athletic directors of the state and the various sport coordinators,” she said. One thing Zayas is learning is the financial challenges member schools and sections are facing with funding their sports. With less state aid and a cap on raising property taxes, school districts across New York are spending less on extracurricular activities such as sports. And earlier this year, NYSPHSAA addressed concerns about travel costs to state tournaments – even floating the idea of a two-year moratorium on state championships. Zayas said his goal is to make certain student-athletes continue to have opportunities to play for their schools. “High school sports are an extension of

the classroom,” said Zayas. “You can learn lessons on a football field that you can’t learn in math class. If you eliminate sports, you’re making the life of a student-athlete more difficult.” “I would hope the economic climate (of New York) would turn itself around so as not to be a threat to the sports community,” said Van Erk. To address the travel cost issue, Zayas said he will look at where state tournaments are held and consider centrally-located alternatives if there needs to be a change of venue. “That (meeting travel costs) is always a concern,” said Zayas. “What we want to do is ease those concerns as much as possible.” Zayas is also interested in making the 36 regional and state tournaments NYSPHSAA runs better across the board. “One thing is you want the girls field hockey tournament to be treated the same way as the state basketball tournament,” said Zayas. “You want everyone in every sport to feel like they’re being treated well.” Another item Zayas said he wants to address early in his tenure is NYSPHSAA’s website. He said the current site needs an upgrade – one that includes more statewide sports news and the capability for webcasting state tournaments. “I want New York to be one of the more technologically-advanced states in the country,” said Zayas. “That’s what I want to do over the next three years.” Young said Zayas’ work on the NMAA website helped increase traffic. “I don’t have the figures (number of page hits) for the old site, but within the first year of the new site (2005), we probably had about 600,000 visitors,” said Young. “Since then we’ve seen a steady increase, and it was probably around 1.3 million visitors last year.” As Zayas looks to implement his changes, he said he’s aware there will be a learning curve for him as he becomes acclimated to New York high school sports. “With me being so new to the state … I think it will take me a few months to fully understand all of the various challenges,” said Zayas. Young said he believes Zayas will meet the challenges of running NYSPHSAA. “He’s going to be a great leader,” said Young. “He’s always been someone the (NMAA) staff looked up to as being someone who always knew what was best for the state and its athletes.”

Fortune from page 1 a winner. Rush suddenly learned he had won $5,000,000. Well, $3,309,000 to be precise, and which will be distributed in a lump sum, but the father of two grown children isn’t complaining. “You always look to win the jackpot, but you never really think you are going to.” New York State Lottery officials presented Fortune with a check Friday at the Kinney Drugs on Boynton Avenue in Plattsburgh. Fortune claimed the top prize on the $5,000,000 Cash! Scratch-off game on Aug. 20 at the Lottery’s Schenectady Customer Service Center. He joked about his last name, saying as a child he was called “fortune cookie” and “fortune teller.” He has actually won thousands over the years playing the lottery, largely through scratch tickets. He once won $1,000 in Vermont. He only came to Kinney Drugs that day to buy laundry detergent. He’s fortunate rechecking the discarded, scratched tickets in his car has become ritual. “I do that a lot,” he said. “I comb through my losers for winners I missed.” He rechecked this one while doing his laundry. “I thought it was a losing ticket. I probably had 20 or 30 other losing tickets down there, and I check them before throwing them out.” A New York State Lottery Spokeswoman said about two percent of prizes go unclaimed in any fiscal year. Last year the amount totaled $36 million. The New York State Lottery is North America’s largest and most profitable lottery, contributing nearly $2.9 billion in fiscal year 2011-12 to support education in the state. The Lottery contributed $17,245,554 in Lottery Aid to school districts through Clinton County during 2011-12. Fortune said his winnings will enable him to retire early. His initial thoughts about the money include donating to charity, helping locally and possibly getting a new vehicle.
