Jeanette Rasmussen and her daughter, Olya May, picking up trash in Plattsburgh with People for Positive Action.
PLATTSBURGH – They didn’t want to be just another group that sat in the basement complaining. They wanted to be a politically independent civic action group, with an emphasis on action. Recently, People for Positive Action took to the streets and the parks, filling bags with trash as part of their small action to improve the environment. “Like our tree planting this past September, this is a practical, symbolic action, and we are actually doing something for the environment,” said Shaun O’Connell, a member of People for Positive Action. “One of the efforts we work on is the environment.”

Giving a voice to the women of Afghanistan PLATTSBURGH — Telling a story is a human right, but not in every corner of the world. In Afghanistan, being a woman means not having a voice. It means you might be forced into marriage with someone you don’t love, and it means your child might be taken from you if that marriage fails. On Nov. 16, 1999, Zarmeena, a mother of seven, was executed by the Taliban in the Kabul’s Ghazi Stadium for allegedly killing her husband. When writer Masha Hamilton saw a video of the execution, she became determined to uncover Zarmeena’s story. In the process of her investigation she learned a lot about the lives of women in Afghanistan, and soon became determined to give those same women a voice. After visiting the region, Hamilton founded the Afghan Women’s Writing Project in May 2009. “Women in Afghanistan are probably the most repressed women on earth and our goal is to get their stories out,” said Elisabeth Lehr, workshop director for the AWWP. “What happens in Afghanistan is very filtered by the media. We want to get the voices out of the people that are there and are living the reality of life in Afghanistan.” The AWWP works closely with Afghan women and helps give them an outlet for their voices. Mentors, who are carefully selected via an application process and must be published writers, work with the women and help them develop their pieces, which are then published in an online magazine at awwproject.org. “About 85 percent of the women in Afghanistan are nonliterate,” Lehr said. “We work with them and help give them language skills and computer skills.” It is dangerous work for everyone involved, which is why the writers only use their first names and are sometimes anonymous. “It speaks loudly about the potential risk of being female in Afghanistan, and it also speaks very loudly about the spirit of the women in Afghanistan to want to take that risk,” Lehr said. The AWWP has offices throughout the United States and one in Afghanistan. The writers are primarily found via word of mouth, and no one is ever turned away. To date, more than 90 Afghan women have written more

than 500 pieces for the magazine, and those numbers are growing. On Nov. 7, Lehr spoke about the AWWP and about the lives of women in Afghanistan to a group of faculty and staff at SUNY Plattsburgh. And then, with the help of Kieva Reynolds and Alex Gartner, two student officers from the Plattsburgh State Chapter of National Student’s Language and Hearing Association, she let the Afghan women speak for themselves. Lehr started with an essay by Norwan called “The Voice of Sahar Gul,” and explained that the story is not uncommon in Afghanistan. Gul was sold by her family and made to marry an Afghan army soldier. When she refused to allow her in-laws to force her into prostitution, they beat her, tortured her, burned her, ripped her fingernails out and locked her in the basement for five months. She was 15. Authorities intervened and Gul was released and taken to a hospital. Her story is now considered to be a voice for other Afghan women. Norwan’s essay never would have been printed in Afghanistan. As Lehr, Reynolds and Gartner continued reading the selected work of the writers, their lives began to unfold within the steady cadence of the words. The pieces were bold, direct, sometimes hopeful and oftentimes heart wrenching, and they were all driven by a momentum that can only be described as pent-up. In a poem called “Always a Hand to Wipe Tears,” Mena wrote about Kabul, a place she calls: “A land of bravery and beauty, a land where poverty increases daily, where death is cheaper than life, where children die before they are born.” But in the same poem, she expressed the othElisabeth Lehr reads from the book “The Sky is a Nest of Swallows,” a collection of work er side of where she is from—music, laughter, from the Afghan Women’s Writers Project’s online magazine. friendship and a love of nature and exploPhoto by Shaun Kittle ration.

Clinton Community College honors veterans
Veteran and Clinton Community College Student Jimmy Duvall speaking at the veterans ceremony.
By Stephen Bartlett
stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH – Jimmy Duvall joined the military after the attacks on Sept. 11 so his younger brother wouldn’t have to. Duvall spent four years as Marine Corps infantry, serving two tours in Iraq and one in Afghanistan. Clinton Community College students joined Duvall’s peers and the community to honor veterans at the campus on top of the hill overlooking Lake Champlain.
Country Doctor to hold forum CHAZY — Dr. Southwick will share rememberances of the general practitioners in Champlain at the Alice T. Miner Museum, 9618 State Route 9. Southwick will discuss when he was young compared to when Dr. George Clark and he practiced on Thursday, Nov. 29 at 7 p.m. Southwick will also tell tales and answer questions. Southwick graduated from Champlain High School in 1950, Shady Side Academy in Pittsburgh, PA in 1951, Yale University in 1955 and New York Medical College in 1959. His internship and residency were at Waterbury Hospital in Connecticut. He practiced medicine with the North Country Medical Group from 1963 to 2004.
The Plattsburgh State ROTC Honor Guard at the veterans celebration at Clinton Community College. “The Veterans Club at Clinton Community College provides a sense of belonging as you make the transition to civilian life and college life,” Duvall said. A large crowd gathered for Clinton Community College’s Veterans Club ceremony to honor veterans. The observation began at noon, near the campus flagpole. The observation included a ceremonial folding of the flag by the Plattsburgh State ROTC Honor Guard, 21 gun salute, TAPS, and a moment of silence for three New York Army National Guard soldiers killed recently in Afghanistan, including former Clinton Community College student Dain Venne from Port Henry. The Veterans Club also held a raffle, distributed poppies in the lobby, and sold wrist bands and baked goods. Proceeds of the sales went to the school’s Veterans Assistance Fund. “The Veterans Club is a useful resource for vets at Clinton Community College,” Duvall said. Keynote Speaker Thomas Middleton, an Iraq War veteran,
alumnus of Clinton Community College and author, called upon those present to honor veterans who sacrificed dearly and to ensure that sacrifice is not in vain. Duvall is studying computer information systems at Clinton Community College. Despite the horrors he has seen, he would do it all again and said he is stronger because of the military, which made him who he is today. He commented on the poor reception Vietnam War veterans suffered through, and stressed that veterans today need to know they are valued. “Just say thank you,” Duvall said.

Thanks for neighbors, small towns
A
coma after a serious motorcycle accident. Airlifted to Albany Medical Center, his prognosis, including recovery from traumatic brain injury, was bleak. Soon afterward, there was a widespread effort to help with family and medical costs. “The North Country Community rallied behind my family,” he said. “Fundraisers were coordinated by childhood friends, fellow firefighters, co-workers and people I had never met before.” And now Wayno’s paying it forward. After recovering, even in a wheelchair, he set up the North Country Hardship Fund to help neighbors in need throughout the region. In August, their Wayne Stock V benefit concert at the Ski Bowl Park in North Creek raised $22,000 for the Fund, which provides relief to families suffering a tragedy in Warren, Essex, Hamilton, Saratoga and Washington counties. It’s this kind of pay-it-forward attitude in small Adirondack towns that makes us thankful. Whether we know them or not, our neighbors are willing to help in times of tragedy, and they treat everyone as though they’re family. Tragedy can strike anytime, and it’s a blessing to know that people like Wayno and Tammy Bukovinsky and businesses like the J&J Foxx Lair Tavern and Wevertown Country Store are here to help. Yet it’s not only disasters that cause distress in our neighbors’ lives. There are people who need our help every day, with clothing, food and fuel. We should also find time to help them as we look to help others in far-away countries. So, if you haven’t had a chance to help a neighbor this holiday season, please consider donating to a local charity or food bank in your hometown. The North Country Hardship Fund could certainly use the help. So could the Clevelands; send donations to Community Bank, Main Street, North Creek, NY 12853 c/o the Cleveland Fire Fund.

North Countryman Editorial
few days before Hurricane Sandy slammed into the East Coast, devastating homes and businesses in several states, there was a disaster in the tiny Adirondack hamlet of Bakers Mills, just south of North Creek. The community response to both crises was uplifting, and it left us thankful for living in a, Adirondack small town. In the early morning hours of Saturday, Oct. 27, Bruce and Amy Cleveland’s house in Bakers Mills was razed by a fire. By some miracle, they had left home an hour earlier to go to the Glens Falls Hospital emergency room. When they arrived back in Bakers Mills, their home was gone. They lost everything. On Oct. 29 and 30, Hurricane Sandy ripped into the East Coast, with New Jersey, New York City and Long Island taking the brunt of the winds and floodwaters. Many lost everything. We continue to hear stories of Adirondack residents traveling south to the greater New York City area to help with the recovery, including firefighters, police officers and business owners. A nationwide relief effort was set up to help the people who lost property during Hurricane Sandy. It seems do this for strangers not just in America but around the world who need our help from natural disasters. Yet it was Bruce and Amy Cleveland’s personal disaster that reminded us that there are people in our own towns, our own region, who also need help. And that help came. The Clevelands’ friends, family and neighbors in the town of Johnsburg have set up a recovery fund for them, and they held a benefit on Sunday, Nov. 11 at the J&J Foxx Lair Tavern in Bakers Mills. It was a resounding success. People donated food, items for the raffle and auction, and music. The tavern’s manager, Joelene Slater, co-organized the event with Nancy and Bert Heckett from the Wevertown Country Store. The Cleveland benefit was a classic example of neighbors helping neighbors, and it seems there’s a culture of giving in the town of Johnsburg. The J&J Foxx Lair Tavern regularly holds benefits, including the Halloween Bash for the North Country Hardship Fund, founded by Wayno Bukovinsky, another local resident. In the spring of 2008, Wayno was in a

Our Nation is at a Crossroads
W
ith the election now behind us our nation is either poised to move forward or is stuck fast in the mess that has plagued us over the past four years. We can assume from the results of the presidential election that approximately 51 percent of the country believes we are on the road to recovery and bright days are ahead. The other 48 percent of those participating in the recent election believe the country is severely broken, lacks the leadership needed to correct the problems and believes very troubled days are ahead. Obviously we are a nation where the majority rules, but we’ve become a nation of winners and when winning at all cost is the primary objective it tends to leave ill will in its wake. While no one wants to end up on the losing side of a hard fought battle, what I hear most disturbing from those on the losing side is a loss of faith in our nation’s principles more so than just a bitter defeat. When President Obama was elected in 2008, those who chose not to vote for him were at least optimistic that he would live up to the words of his campaign, bring the parties together, reduce the unemployment rate and the deficit and bring about a needed change in the way the country had been functioning over the previous administration. Unfortunately, throughout this campaign President Obama took a different approach with his reelection using terms like “redistribution,” “revenge,” and drew lines around race, gender, sexual orientation, and age. Where most presidents spoke about motivational achievements and encouraging goals, President Obama spoke about entitlements, those who don’t share with others and discouraging small business job providers. Clearly the last four years have seen a major shift in the attitude and expectations people have with regards to their lives and the position government seeks to have in those lives. We’re moving from a nation where John Kennedy challenged us… not to ask what our country can do for us but what we can do for our country to an Obama second term where we should be asking the country to step in and right the inequities through a leveling of the playing field. Many nations have tried this approach and many nations have failed. When the
able bodied population of this nation have been empowered and motivated to make things happen on their own Dan Alexander we’ve seen Thoughts from Behind the Pressline growth in all forms. When the population becomes complacent and lacks the opportunity for great personal growth the bottom line motivation becomes hollow, and the risk is no longer worth the effort required. We can not allow the latter sentiment to take hold. When the risk takers, the motivated small entrepreneurs and young dreamers just starting out in life become disillusioned and lose faith that the realization of their dreams is no longer in their hands a fear sets in and takes hold. The fear that what made our country the great economic engine that drove the world is now slowing down is both frightening and disheartening. It’s seen as more than just a failed election it’s a stark realization that our way of life is about to change and there may be little anyone can do to alter what is about to take place. The nation’s course now appears to be set. We can not afford four more years of stagnate government but we’ve essentially sent the same players back to Washington who have accomplished little over the past four years. We can not afford rising costs, increased unemployment, higher deficits and further grid lock. So we must have faith that our great nation will persevere and not allow a process of social reengineering to dampen the capitalistic spirit that has proven so successful over the years. Both must coexist and so it’s time for both sides to unite, address the issues facing the country without further gridlock, with a spirit of cooperation and resolve to maintain a national attitude where personal responsibility and self reliance are still valued over all else. Time will tell what the future holds but none of us can lose faith in a country that has given us so much and yet much more is still expected for the generations that follow.

A small price to pay for handicapped accessibility D
epending on whom one speaks with, most residents in Mooers do not want a new library. There are questions over costs, demands that the library remain in the same building, anger over the location of the new library and concerns that the money saved should be spent elsewhere. The one glaring certainty though is that the current library is not adequate for those who are disabled. It was deemed inadequate and Mooers officials were told that the library needed to be handicap accessible. Ultimately, that’s the only thing that really matters here, and it inspired town officials to act. So they decided to construct a new library behind the Town Offices, down the road from the current, small building. It appears they made the right decision. I understand that times are tough, for sure. Critics see the library in the current building and think it’s working fine. Just install a handicap ramp and all will be
well. Why not spend that money on roads, or somewhere else, or use any extra funds the town gets to lower taxes. But a ramp is not all that is needed. The library needs a lift, a new bathroom and more, and from what library officials and residents supporting the project say, the current building is inadequate and will not meet the requirements to make it fully handicap accessible. Again, some residents might say times are tough. I say ask a disabled individual what it is like getting around every day, really see that person and his or her frustration and pain and then say “Times are tough.” I was at a meeting in Plattsburgh held at a local building a spiritual group uses and a wheelchair-bound woman had a terrible time making it in and maneuvering herself to the location of the gathering. If the meeting had been held in the basement, she would not have been able to attend.
Stephen Bartlett
From the Editor’s Desk The woman expressed her frustration during a period for questions and comments, and while those present listened, some were clearly frustrated because the meeting was going off topic. But imagine for a few seconds you are this woman and life is already difficulty because of your disability and is more difficult each day you leave your house. The difficulties don’t stem from your poor attitude, because you
are positive, despite your hardship, but they stem from the fact that each and every time you go out into the world and want to be a part of society, you have to struggle or are unable to participate because of the lack of handicap accessibility. Yes, it has improved tremendously over the years, but as long as there are even a few places that are restrictive to those with disabilities, then improvements must continue to be made. A disabled person should not be prevented from participating in society because the venue only caters to the able-bodied. Likewise, while times are tough, and money is tight, it seems to me to be much easier for the able bodied to point that out, especially when they are able to come and go as they please. They don’t get dressed up for a show or an event they are excited about and then have to turn around because they cannot even enter the building, or turn around because they can enter the building but then cannot navigate inside. Can you imagine? Everyone else is

Cindi Murphy Event Coordinator 6th Annual Holiday Toy Drive Sponsored by M&M Diner Au Sable Forks
Toy drive started To the North Countryman: The sixth Annual Holiday Toy Drive (Sponsored by M&M Diner/Au Sable Forks) is in full swing and I am seeking the kindness of the North Country community in helping me make a happy holiday for children/teenagers who are less fortunate. Economic times continue to be difficult for many in our community so it's always an honor to have members and businesses play a role in spreading Christmas cheer. That being said, at this time, toys (or monetary donations) for boys & girls are needed ( and greatly appreciated. For teenagers (Up to the age of 18 years), monetary donations would be the best way to make a donation as their gifts are more selective than children. Rolls of wrapping paper, tags, tape and bows are needed. The support toward the Annual Holiday Toy Drive has received for the past five years has been overwhelming and I wish to thank everyone in advance who is able to contribute a gift or monetary donation in making a child's Christmas much brighter.

volved with GASO and making a plan to quit smoking is one easy way to fight back against this disease. According to the American Cancer Society’s Tobacco Information and Fact Sheet, nearly 3,400 non-smoking adults die of lung cancer every year, simply from being exposed to secondhand smoke. On top of this, almost 46,000 non-smoking adults die from heart disease due to breathing in secondhand smoke. CAC is teaming up with the Adirondack Tobacco Free Network (ATFN) to create new policies that will help communities become tobacco-free. The number of deaths that occur every year from tobacco is the reason why we are urging school officials and lawmakers to create smoke-free campuses.
VoiceYourOpinion
To the North Countryman: Tobacco use is the most preventable cause of disease and premature death in the United States, yet 45 million (about one in every five) Americans still smoke cigarettes. This is why it’s important to spread the word and get our loved ones to quit smoking. The third Thursday in November every year is The Great American Smokeout (GASO), which inspires and encourages smokers to quit. Nov. 15 marks The American Cancer Society’s (ACS) 37th GASO. This event gives people an opportunity to make a plan to quit smoking or allows them to plan in advance and quit smoking on this day. The Colleges Against Cancer club (CAC) at SUNY Plattsburgh works throughout the year to fight against cancer. Getting in-

getting ready to enjoy their evening and you are stuck in the corner, unable to move because of restrictions related to your disability. But a disability should not restrict anyone if society has the ability to eliminate those restrictions. It is difficult to tell, depending on whom one speaks with, whether the Mooers library move is the right choice. But if it truly comes down to constructing a new building that the disabled can fully enjoy too, then there is only one choice. Don’t be that able-bodied individual who walks around unrestricted and complains about money being spent to provide the disabled with the same opportunities you have. Maybe I'm only saying this because I have a son with a disability, but I'd give up a whole lot to ensure someone with a disability had the same access to society I have.

Housing Outlet raises money for Ronald McDonald House By Stephen Bartlett
41878
stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Plattsburgh Housing Outlet scares up its volunteers each year to provide children with a safe venue for trick-or-treating. It also uses the annual event to raise money for Burlington’s Ronald McDonald House, especially since the majority of families who stay at the house are from the New York side of Lake Champlain. This year ’s Halloween Festival had the biggest turnout yet and raised the most money so far to help families in need. “It is a fun community event where children can trick-or-treat in a controlled environment and
families can learn valuable safety lessons,” said Michelle LaBounty, Marketing Director for Plattsburgh Housing Outlet. The Halloween Festival collected $5,300 for the Ronald McDonald House Charities in Burlington, VT, for a lifetime total donation of $47,214. A record 800 children and their families enjoyed the festivities with participants bringing in $1 donations to trick-or-treat in Plattsburgh Housing Outlet’s display homes. The homes were staffed and sponsored by area businesses and organizations. Many of the businesses decorated the porch of their homes and dressed in costume. Children participated in arts and crafts and enjoyed cider and Munchkins. Children also enjoyed a magic show at Della Honda.
A raffle and games further helped raise additional funds for the Ronald McDonald House. The proceeds were presented to Pam Fenimore, executive director of the Ronald McDonald House Charities in Vermont to continue to support families in need. Rouhgly 70 percent of the families who stay at the Ronald McDonald House in Burlington are from Clinton, Essex and Franklin counties. “I am humbled by the generous donations of our business and community partners despite the economy,” LaBounty said. “It is hard to believe we have been doing this for 13 years. My younger son was an infant when we started all of this.” Photos from the event are available on Plattsburgh Housing Outlet’s Facebook page.

Financial squeeze results in layoffs at CVPH By Stephen Bartlett
stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — In an attempt to bolster its financial position in 2013 and beyond, CVPH Medical Center laid off 17 employees. A total of 9 of them were management and the remaining 8 were hourly staff members. Cuts to reimbursement and a nationwide trend of fewer admissions and outpatient services contributed to a shortfall in revenue. “This step is necessary in order to help sustain our medical center in the future,” said CVPH Medical Center President Stephens Mundy. “Regardless, it is one of the most difficult decisions we have had to make in my 10 years at CVPH.” Hospital officials looked throughout the organization in making the decision. The
management cuts included at least one toplevel administrator. The hourly employees included positions in information technology, human resources and finances. No direct caregivers or nurses lost their jobs as hospital officials were careful no to impact patient care. The 17 individuals laid off will receive severance pay and health insurance through the end of the year along with assistance in finding other employment. Hospital officials blamed the move on a shortfall that exceeded $400,000, meaning that, through September, CVPH operating expenses exceeded operating revenues by more than $400,000. That was largely due to cuts in reimbursement, fewer admissions and reduced use of outpatient services. That figure would have been far greater if CVPH had not qualified for a $3.2 million federal Meaningful Use grant as part of a national program to fund development of an electronic medical record system. For ac-
counting purposes, the grant was credited as operating revenue. Mundy said the systemic changes in health care and a number of short-term business cycle factors created a “perfect storm” that undermined CVPH’s finances after three of the stronger financial years in the medical center ’s history. “Over the past several months we have initiated a number of measures to reduce future expenses,” Mundy said. “Physician recruitment is working to fill positions that opened unexpectedly this year. The pending affiliation with Fletcher Allen Partners will generate additional savings through group purchasing.” Also, several new physicians are slated to begin serving the community next summer. Mundy noted that the state and federal governments are investigating ways to pay less and, at times, take back monies they already paid. Ultimately, he said, everyone is seeking greater efficiency and less expen-
sive ways to meet future health-care needs. “Our challenge is to find new, more efficient ways to continue to provide safe, quality care that meets the needs of our patients and their families.” Mundy believes CVPH is well positioned for the future at a time when the health-care industry is at a crossroads and some hospitals will fail. CVPH employs more than 2,300 people, and the layoffs represented the elimination of slightly more than five percent of management and less than one-half of one percent of hourly staff members. Last month, members of the administrative staff voluntarily took a reduction in pay. “CVPH is an excellent medical center that will continue to provide exceptional care for its patients,” Mundy said. “Our mission is to provide quality care for North Country residents. That has not, nor will it, change.”
Driver may not have been wearing seat belt when accident claimed his life By Stephen Bartlett
The truck had come to rest on its driver side, and the passerby found Bulriss pinned underneath it. Dannemora and Saranac fire departments responded to the accident.
stephen@denpubs.com SARANAC — A young Schuyler Falls man failed to negotiate a curve when his truck swerved off the road. The 24 year old’s 1999 Dodge Ram overturned in the accident that claimed his life. Corey Bulriss was driving north on Ore Bed Road in the Town of Saranac when he failed to negotiate a right-hand curve near Ore Pond, according to New York State Police. Bulriss swerved into the southbound lane, and when he overcorrected he lost control of the truck, skidding across the road and exiting the east shoulder. The Dodge Ram plunged down a small embankment and slammed into a stump and several trees, eventually overturning. The force of the accident ejected Bulriss from the driver ’s side window. He was pinned under the front tire of the truck. Another driver noticed the debris at around 9:50 p.m. and drove to the nearest house and asked the occupant to dial 911.
Bulriss was pronounced dead at the scene. The accident remains under investigations, and police said they do not believe Bulriss was wearing a seat belt.
Champlain man gets nine months for threatening children By Stephen Bartlett
stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — A Champlain man threatened to kill children. He claimed it would be his way of offering a lesson in accountability. Ultimately, Andre Levesque, 42, was sentenced to nine months in Clinton County Jail for making a terrorist threat. Levesque was in Clinton County jail earlier this year on a previous charge
when he alleged he was assaulted. In March and April, he wrote letters to Clinton County District Attorney Andrew Wylie and New York State Assemblywoman Janet Duprey. He wanted them to investigate. He also threatened to kill children. Levesque said he was upset with what “has happened” in New York, and as a result he was “seriously considering killing lots of children to teach you all a lesson about accountability.” He said they might be able to help him resolve the issue peacefully, but
“maybe you are part of the problem.” In Clinton County Court, Levesque pleaded guilty to a felony charge of making a terrorist threat. He agreed to wave appeals. An order of protection was issued for Duprey and Wylie. Franklin County District Attorney Derek Champagne was brought in as special prosecutor for the case. Levesque has been in Clinton County Jail since his arrest in March.

Mooers Fire Department receives Bucket Brigade grant By Shaun Kittle
shaun@denpubs.com MOOERS — Fire gear only has a shelf life of 10 years. It doesn’t go moldy or stale, but it does begin to offer less protection to the person wearing it. And the last thing a firefighter wants to worry about inside a burning building is the integrity of his or her equipment. That’s why Raymond Phair, the chief of the Mooers Fire Department, applied for a grant to help defray the cost of buying new turnout gear for his volunteer team. “This is really a safety issue,” Phair said. “The interior guys need the best equipment because they’re in the most hazardous environment.” Two members of the Fire Department, Mark Trombly and Lola Miller, both work at Georgia Pacific in Plattsburgh and suggested Phair ap-
ply for the company’s Bucket Brigade grant. Sue Roberts, another member of the fire department, wrote the grant, and the department was awarded $5,000 Oct. 22. The money will go toward buying ten new sets of turnout gear consisting of helmets, jackets, gloves, boots, pants and Nomex hoods. Each set costs about $2,000, and the fire department will kick in the rest of the cost. Karen Cole, communications manager for Georgia Pacific, said the grant started in 2006. The main requirement for receiving the grant is that the fire department has to be in a community near a Georgia Pacific Plant. “We try to look at all the applicants and respond to the ones with the most basic needs,” Cole said. Safety gear, like turnout gear, is considered top priority, but grant money can be awarded for things like radios too.
This year Georgia Pacific donated about $155,000 to 25 fire departments across 15 states. Most received between $5,000 and $10,000. It is the first time a department in the North Country has received the grant. Georgia Pacific awards departments that don’t receive the Bucket Brigade Grant a membership to the National Volunteer Fire Council,
an online community for volunteer fire departments that offers resources on how to write grants and other information. “For us, it’s important to support the very people who are helping to protect our communities,” Cole said. “If the community does well, Georgia Pacific does well. We live in this community too.”

Contest to help empower girls By Stephen Bartlett
stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH – Shine On! inspires girls to be strong and confident. It empowers them and teaches them that beauty is not just on the outside. The local program that strives to build resiliency in girls is up to win a $10,000 grant in the AVEENO “Be An Active Natural Challenge.” Plattsburgh State Assistant Professor of Public Relations Colleen Lemza founded the Shine On! Conference, which is a finalist in the competition that recognizes contestants and “how they create a beautiful change in the world around them.” Shine On! works to empower girls and increase their resiliency as they face the pressures of adolescence and beyond. One of the goals is to help them obtain the skills to avoid mental health disor-

ders, anxiety and eating disorders. The third annual conference will take place in April on Plattsburgh State’s campus. At the most recent conference, Morgan Polhemus learned models in magazines wear lots of makeup and photos of them are digitally manipulated. The Momot Elementary School student said she learned beauty isn’t just on the outside. “We learned that we shouldn’t pay attention to endorsements that say you’ll look better if you do this or buy that, or you’ll be more popular if you do something in a certain way,” Polhemus said. The conference evolved from an extra-credit practicum created for public relations majors to a credit-bearing, two-semester eventplanning class. It brought in mothers and guardians for part of the conference, as well as Plattsburgh State counseling majors. This most recent contest allows the public to vote on the most worthy recipient through the company’s Facebook page: Face-
book.com/aveeno. Shine On! is just one of two programs that made the contest’s final round. “Colleen is a professor, wife, mother and advocate to make girls strong,” wrote Justine Almeraris, the Plattsburgh State student who entered Lemza and Shine On! into the contest. “She has such passion and optimism for this program, along with all of the other people involved. This is my third year being involved in Shine On! and it is the most rewarding opportunity.” Almeraris hopes the community and college supports Shine On! in the contest.

chances to enter final four play but came up short. In Class C, the Lake Placid Blue Bombers gave up a lone goal in the 55th minute to drop a 1-0 decision to Hoosick Falls, who qualified for state play in four different sports, three by defeating Section VII foes (boys and girls soccer, football and field hockey). In Class B, Ichabod Crane scored on a penalty kick in the fourth minute of play as they advanced to the state final four with a 3-0 win over Northeastern Clinton.
Runners compete at state meet; local teams fall in regional finals ELMIRA — Section VII runners had a strong meet at the NYSPHSAA cross country championships Nov. 10. Overall, the Ticonderoga boys team placed fifth in the state for Class D, with the Seton Catholic girls team placing sixth among Class D. Both Section VII/Class D contingents also placed sixth. In Class B, Ashley Leta of Peru finished 55th overall with a time of 19:52 in the girls race, while Kyler Agoney was 91st overall with a time of 17:44 in the boys race. In Class C, Jeriqho Gadway, the Section VII champion form Plattsburgh High, finished 24th with a time of 16:54. Beekmantown’s Colin Quackenbush finished 37th at 17:10, while Josh Wade finished 45th with a time of 17:21. Elena Beideck was the top finisher in Class C for the girls, as the Saranac Lake runner posted a time of 21:18. In Class D, Mitchell Ryan of Seton Catholic ran the course in 16:53 for a ninth place finish, while teammate Evan Page was 14th with a time of 17:05. Section VII champion Margaret Champagne finished seventh for Seton Catholic in
the Class D girls race with a time of 19:40, while Nina Armstrong crossed the line in 30th place with a time of 20:36. Melissa Whyman finished 38th in a time of 20:57 and Gabby Armstrong finished 48th with a time of 21:19.
Girls soccer In a rough weekend for Section VII girls soccer, the tightest contest was held in Class D, where the Elizabethtown-Lewis Lady Lions looked to advance past Section X champ Chateaugay and into the state final four. The Lions came out and played their style of defensive-oriented soccer throughout the first 80 minutes, entering overtime tied 0-0 against the Lady Bulldogs. In the fourth minute of overtime, Hannah Cook was able to control the ball for the Bulldogs, rushing to the left side of the penalty box and firing a low-angle skipper into the Lions net, the lone goal in a 1-0 defeat. “We were hoping to get through the first 10 minutes of overtime tied,” Lions head coach Steve Denton said. “We were able to
make a couple of runs, but they were able to capitalize on once chance and we weren’t.” The Lions best chance came late in the second half, when the Lions powerful counter attack got the ball to the foot of Emily Morris, who fired a shot into the upper right portion of the Chateaugay net. Bulldog keeper Makayla Fleury made a jumping save, pushing the ball over the crossbar to keep the game scoreless. In Class C, the AuSable Valley Lady Patriots were on the wrong end of the scoresheet and whistle, giving up four goals in the second half and having two called back by the officials in falling, 4-0, to Hoosick Falls. Bryce Douglass made 11 saves in the loss. The Plattsburgh Lady Hornets also found it hard to break into the scoring column, as Schalmont scored three goals in the second half to defeat PHS, 3-0. Karlie Neal made seven saves for the Hornets.
Football Three Section VII football teams had the goal of making it to the final four in Kingston
this weekend, but their Section II foes were not going to let that happen. In Class C, the Red Storm hosted another perennial power, Hoosick Falls, on the turf at AuSable Valley High School Nov. 10, where they scored the first points of the game in the second quarter when Matt Phelan scored on the ground from one yard out to give his team a 6-0 lead but eventually fell 20-12. In Class B, Glens Falls scored first and outlasted the Peru Indians, finishing with a 3620 edge on the scoreboard. Zane Bazzano got the Indians on the board in the first quarter with an eight-yard touchdown run, but the Indians were unable to tie the game on a two-point conversion. Glens Falls scored the next 14 points before Tim Remillard scored from 24 yards out and Mackenzie LaRocque added a two-point conversion, cutting the lead to 22-14. Remillard scored the final touchdown of the season for the Indians on a three-yard run to counter a Glens Falls, who scored the final points of the game.

Positive Action from page 1 The action group gathered at noon at the Rota Studio and Gallery on Margaret Street, armed with trash bags, their emblem, which they pinned to their backs, and tools for collecting trash. As they pushed through the greenway off Margaret Street, they collected gum, wrappers, cigarette packs and more. They continued to the Farmers Market area in the City of Plattsburgh Parking lot, stretched out to the monument and then headed back up to Margaret Street, picking up trash as they went. “We need to do more for the environment,” O’Connell said. Environmental issues plague the United States, which is the second largest emitter, after China, of carbon dioxide from the burning of fossil fuels. About 86 percent of all types of energy used in the United States are derived from fossil fuel consumption, causing greenhouse gas emissions and climate change. The United States is one of only two countries that has not signed on to the Kyoto Protocol. “Our emphasis is on action,” O’Connell said. Jennifer Allen of West Chazy was merely in the City of Plattsburgh that day to become a member of Rota, but when she saw People for Positive Action in action she grabbed a trash bag and helped. “What they are doing is pretty cool, because I like these parks,” Allen said. Jeanette Rasmussen and her daughter, Olya May, helped as well. As part of her activity with the Key Club, Plattsburgh High
Rouses Point Veterans from page 1 of this noblest of causes,” St. John said, as veterans, the community and American Legion Posts 767 and 912, along with Veteran of Foreign War Post 1418 observed Veterans Day at Post 912 in Rouses Point. “Out of blood and sweat we learned of purpose, sacrifice, tolerance, bravery and discipline,” St. John said. Those are the foundations of a great nation, he said. And to continue to pursue honorable peace, those virtues must be cultivated. Ken Peete, commander of Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 1418, spoke of a contagious heroism, and sacrifice on the battlefield, in the same breath cautioning against brutality. “Let us strive to see the same spirit of self-sacrifice that is cultivated in war carry over and be exhibited in peace.” Peete called on those gathered to inspire youth in peace as they have been inspired in war. Public honor must be given where it is due, he said, and not to the manipulator of a market, or the seeker of profit, power and position. Such honor is due the heroes of science who alleviate human suffering and elevate the standards of civilization. “Let us honor those who devote their lives to that education, which will lead our children to live and laugh and learn and love, as we have only dreamed of doing,” Peete said. “Let us honor veterans who carry into ordinary affairs of life a noble idealism and a sincere capacity for self devotion.” Bill Tallman, commander of American Legion Post 767 in Champlain recalled the courage of individuals faced with danger, as well as the courage of nations that protect the weak. But he noted that there is bravery to be shown in peace as well. “We can turn the slums into comfortable homes and turn uncertainty into certainty,” Tallman said. “We can reach new heights of civilization and opportunity for the men and women of this nation if we have the courage to expect and work for a better way of life.” Amber St. John, president of the Post 912 Auxiliary, reminded everyone not to forget that the repercussions of war’s brutality have dimmed the hopes and dreams of loved ones left behind. “In our constant quest for an honorable world peace, there is need for unity of purpose if we truly are to move toward a brighter tomorrow,” Amber said.
