Taste of Home Cooking School comes to Pburgh By Shaun Kittle shaun@denpubs.com
Sheri Provost won a new range, the grand prize at the Taste of Home. On the left is Culinary Specialist Michael Barna, and on the right is the event’s emcee, Shaun Kittle.
PLATTSBURGH — More than 900 people flocked to the Crete Center for a little Taste of Home Nov. 3. The event, which was sponsored by Denton Publications, consisted of 49 vendors offering samples of their products and selling their wares. There was something for everyone, from a chocolate fountain made for dipping to home furnishings crafted from items previously tossed aside. But amid all the commotion, the delectable samples, the cookbooks and jewelry and crafts, there was a steady murmer of anticipation for the main attraction—Culinary Specialist Michael Barna, a man who
happens to be a bit of a celebrity. He is the same Michael Barna whose hands doubled for Mel Gibson’s in the movie Signs and has helped open three gourmet casino restaurants in Atlantic City. Barna also holds a degree from the Culinary Institute of America and has worked for four and five star restaurants. The man loves to entertain, and he really loves to cook. So now he combines the two by traveling the northeast for Taste of Home, a cooking magazine comprised of recipes sent in from its readers. “We get 40,000 recipes sent to us annually,” Barna said. “We bring it down to 1,000 recipes out of that, and we take all of them and test

PLATTSBURGH — Lisa Shovan graduated with honors from Clinton Community College in 1993.

Clinton Community College hired Shovan as its new vice president for administration and finance. She starts as the school’s Chief Financial Officer Nov. 19, replacing Thomas Moffett, who retired at the end of August with 10 years of service. Shovan comes to Clinton Community College from the Trudeau Institute, Inc. in Saranac Lake, where she held a number of positions.

She graduated cum laude from Plattsburgh State in 2000. “As an alumna of Clinton Community College, I am very honored and excited to return to the campus as a member of the administrative team,” Shovan said. Clinton’s vice president of administration
and finance is the chief financial officer for the school and responsible for the college’s financial administration.

Barbershoppers bring back memories stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — As the music fills listeners’ ears, they’ll be transported back to their first love, first dance and first date. They’ll stroll down memory lane to classic songs by artists singing to preserve the music. “It is one of our most ambitious shows,” said Tom Maglienti, a member of the Cumberland Bay Barbershoppers. The group is presenting its 53rd annual show, “Memories are Made of This,” at Giltz Auditorium at Plattsburgh State. The show starts at 7 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 10. Artists featured at the show include Frank Sinatra, Bobby Vinton, Barry Manilow, the Platters, the 4 Freshman, the 5 Satins, the Beatles, Beach Boys, Roy Orbison and Johnny Cash. “I grew up with all these songs, so singing them now is no problem and brings back floods of memories,” said newest member Chris Miller. The featured guest is Downtown
Crossing, a quartet dedicated to bringing fun and energy to barbershop music. The youthful group was introduced to the music by their grandfathers and in 2010 became the Northeastern District quartet champions. They will be joined by Minor Adjustment, a Plattsburgh State a cappella mixed group, and the Champlain Valley Sweet Adelines. Barbershop vocal harmony is a style of a cappella characterized by consonant four-part chords for every melody note in a predominantly homophonic texture. “When you get four voices that blend together, all singing different parts, you ring that chord,” said Maglienti. “The sound of the ringing chord brings me right in.” He has belonged to the Cumberland Bay Barbershoppers for seven years, but has been singing since school, previously belonging to folk groups and the glee club. Mike Deeb’s father was a founding member. He was simply looking for a night out to himself when he joined 25 years ago. “I really never thought I was a musician, but I have learned how to sing,”
Fri., Nov. 9- Mon., Nov. 12, 2012
Deeb said. He explained that the Cumberland Bay Barbershoppers belongs to the Barbershop Harmony Society. “We have members who have been with us for 50 years and some who have only been here for five months,” Deeb said. Robert Brooks joined the chorus in 1962. “I have made many friends through barbershopping,” Brooks said. “We are all family and would do anything for each other.”
The Cumberland Bay Barbershoppers will dedicate the Nov. 10 show finale to veterans in honor of Veteran’s Day weekend. “It is a very enjoyable activity,” said Dave Hurd, another member of the Cumberland Bay Barbershoppers. “When you are singing it is only the song, and your troubles go away.” Tickets are available online at www.cumberlandbay.org, from any barbershopper, by calling 561-0545, or at the door.
New children’s store at mall
New, bigger Dollar General in Plattsburgh
By Stephen Bartlett

stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH – Dollar General is coming to the City of Plattsburgh’s South End. And it is a large one at that. The store will be located at the Lavin Candy Co. property at 4989 South Catherine Street. The City of Plattsburgh’s Planning Board approved the plans submitted by Primax Properties, a real estate investment company based in Charlotte, N.C. Work is expected to start in April with the demolition of the Lavin Candy building. Construction on the new Dollar General store would start shortly after and possibly be open that summer. The store will be about 9,100 square feet, which is roughly 2,000 square feet larger than the typical Dollar General. Dollar General, based in Tennessee, is the largest small-box retailer in the country with sales of $14.8 billion last year. Dollar General is located in more than 40 states, with local stores in Peru, Rouses Point and other North Country locations among its 10,000 stores. Dollar General has 11 distribution centers with a workforce of around 94,000. The first store was launched in 1955 in Kentucky.
PLATTSBURGH — Crazy 8 is coming to Plattsburgh. The children’s clothing store, which was launched to compete with other successful children’s retail stores, should open in Champlain Centre this spring. Officials at Champlain Centre, operated by Pyramid Management Group, LLC, said they are excited about the new addition and eager for Crazy 8 to open. Crazy 8 is part of the Gymboree Corporation family of brands. The Gymboree Corporation is a San Francisco-based corporation that operates a chain of about 900 specialty retail stores of children’s apparel in the United States, Puerto Rico, Mexico and Canada. Bain acquired the company in 2010. Gymboree stores offer coordinating children’s clothing with sizes that range from birth to age 12.
Gymboree has reorganized several times and operates 630 Gymboree Retail stores, 150 Gymboree Outlet stores, 120 Janie and Jack stores and started Crazy 8 in 2007. Crazy 8 features cheaper clothing and is the corporation’s competitor for The Children’s Place and Old Navy. There are roughly 300 Crazy 8 stores nationwide that offer fashionable outfits and accessories for boys and girls. They are billed as designed for every minute of a child’s busy schedule, including at and after school, bedtime and on the weekends. Crazy 8 says its clothing is designed with “colorful, high-quality fabrics and detailed touches throughout.” The brand carries sizes from newborn to 14. Construction on the new store is expected to begin this November, with an opening planned for the spring. Crazy 8 will be located near the food court and next to FYE.

Can we be Empire State strong?
I
n the aftermath of Tropical Strom Irene, the region came together to help neighbors and family rise from the waters and build again. With Hurricane Sandy looming, the North Country prepared for a storm. People purchased generators, batteries, stored safe drinking water and waited. Most awoke to electricity and a clear path to work or school in the morning, but on the same morning New Yorkers to the south were trapped, unable to use the public transportation they rely on. Traffic signals in Times Square were out and many lost their lives in the storm’s path. By sending generators and able-bodied volunteers to the area, people began to show support in any way possible. Local counties were prepared with emergency services on standby all night. Essex County was shut down and administrators were ready to call off school. The members of the community learned a lot from Irene. In the aftermath of Irene we developed long term recovery agencies and organizations like Project Hope traveled throughout the area knocking on doors to help those in need. In Vermont, the Disaster Relief Fund partnered with the “I am Vermont Strong” organization to create license plates that not only raised more than $600,000 for the victims of Tropical Storm Irene but also projected an outward bond amongst Vermonters. “It showed solidarity throughout the state to see people with the plates on the front of their cars,” said Betsy Ide, executive director of the disaster relief fund. Ide said that not everyone put the plates on their cars, but instead hung them on their walls to keep as a souvenir. “People from out of state who couldn’t put the plates on their cars still bought them to show their support for other Vermonters,” Ide said. “That says a lot.” The plates sell for $25 each, with $18 going to the relief fund, $2 going to the state food bank and $5 for production of the plates. The organization has sold 30,000 plates and generated $600,000 for
the relief fund, which is still helping those affected by Irene in 2011 Ide said. Could New Yorkers unite in an outward show of solidarity to help everyone still suffering from Sandy? New York sustained about 35 percent of the total insured losses in Hurricane Sandy’s path, according to Curt Heintzelman, senior account executive of EQECAT, a company that connects insurance and the financial services of its clients. About 35 percent of the total insured losses for Sandy are expected to come from New York, with early damage reports indicating significant coastal flooding. Of the total losses for Sandy, about 85 percent of the losses are from New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Disaster-modeling firm EQECAT Inc. said the insurance industry is likely to pay out $10 billion to $20 billion, while it said the total cost of the storm would be between $30 billion and $50 billion. Ide said most of the boom of financial support came in the months following Irene. Though Sandy has dissolved off the coast, New Yorkers can show an outward wave of support either by passing legislation to allow New York drivers to have a plate put on the front of their cars for two years or find another way to outwardly keep the momentum going to support our neighbors. Just as Vermonters declared “I am Vermont Strong” with the sale of shirts, posters, license plates and other products, this could be a time for New York to find a similar way to not only help neighbors have a dry and safe home for the winter but to also show other states that New Yorkers are Empire State strong.

It’s time to get back to work
O
ur production deadlines have me drafting this column prior to the outcome of the 2012 elections. Regardless of how the races turn out, the promises made, the twisting of the facts, the compelling arguments, the money spent and how you chose to vote, one thing is for sure it’s clear we’ve got much to do in the way of the people’s business and no time to waste rolling up our sleeves getting down to work. Top on the list, regardless of the outcome of the Presidential election, it appears that 163 million American workers can expect a big increase in the taxes taken out of their paychecks come January. The temporary reduction in Social Security payroll taxes is due to expire at the end of 2012. Neither the Obama nor the Romney camps proposed an extension, both steering clear of any blame for increased taxes come 2013. Neither party feels the payroll tax holiday, put in place two years ago that was intended to be a temporary shot in the arm for the economy, has done much to stimulate the sluggish economy. Providing cover for the Social Security reduction is the bigger question surrounding the future of the Bush-Era tax cuts which also expire at the end of 2012. Couple that with the pending sequestration due to take effect in 2013 and it’s clear that the government can no longer sugar coat the medicine. We must face and accept the reality of our financial crisis very soon. At the end of the day it’s time to suck it up and deal with these issues. On the fairy tale campaign trail politicians can always find creative ways to avoid answering the tough issues, and twist the truth as to who to blame, but once the election dust settles those left standing really should have no choice but to address these issues. The retiring Social Security Payroll Holiday will affect every American worker at the rate of 2 percent of their wages while having the same impact on their employer. Congress has generously reimbursed Social Security for the lost revenue estimated to be over $215 billion the past two years. Of course, we all know that the country hasn’t had a budget for the last three years so that generous reimbursement has essentially been going on our credit card, increasing the country’s debt crisis. The debt crisis leads us to the sequestration. Since Congress was unable to work out any
form of compromise when the nation reached its most recent and yet another debt ceiling, sequestration was proposed by the Dan Alexander Obama negotiating Thoughts from team in an effort to Behind the Pressline force Republican Congressional members into accepting tax increases or face deep cuts to our military. The Republicans called the bet put in place by the Democrats nearly certain they would not allow deep cuts to social programs no more than they would allow the cuts to the military programs. Sadly when both sides play the game of chicken knowing neither wants the alternative but neither side wants to be the first to blink, well everyone ends up losing. The sequestration legislation forces massive cuts on both the military and non-defense spending programs. The inability of our government to come to an agreement that could be used by either side during the elections as caving in on their core principles will instead produce painful cuts to programs both parties strongly support. It’s no way to run a household, a business nor a government. It’s plain stupidity and we’ve no time or stomach for any more childish behavior. How the devastating affects of Super Storm Sandy will effect all this is yet another straw on the back of an already heavily strained economy and a government in denial of its impending doom. But with the election season now behind us we can only hope the form of cover Congress put in place as opposed to dealing with these critical issues can now be addressed by responsible parties who have committed to resolving the financial and employment problems that have plagued our nation for the past decade. Let’s hope we’ve elected the right individuals who are up to the task of working across party lines and are willing to put the nation’s interests ahead of political gamesmanship. As a nation we are out of time, out of blame and out of money. We need solutions not tricks and gimmicks. The cliff is getting closer and the foolishness must stop.

Will all the grim predictions really come true? A
s you read this, will all my friends still like me?
Will some members of my family have disowned me? Will I be pouting in my room, refusing to come out? Will I be parading in the streets, sticking my tongue out at people? Will I have accepted defeat gracefully? Will I quietly and humbly celebrate victory? Will you and your friends and families and co-workers still get along, or will hard feelings be the downfall of everyone? This election has brought out nastiness like I’ve never seen before. Granted, I am only 38, but still, I’ve never seen so many people, so mad and so defensive and so on edge. Many people were that way well before the election, but as election day neared — WOW. And now, as I write this, it is time to vote tomorrow. When this is read, it will all be done, and part of me keeps picturing smoke and rubble in the aftermath, with
half the country angered and defeated and the other half hoping their new president saves them. The majority of the people I talk to say that is what they are expecting, and that is partly why they’ve been so darn mad — because one man will mess everything up and the other is waiting for Tuesday to pass to tear open his shirt and reveal his superhero costume and fly around the country and fix and save everyone and everything. The country has been damaged for some time and people need a miracle. Of course, that is not going to happen, but that is what seemed at stake here as friends and family members traded hurtful words and sometimes fists over who should be the next president. I heard people claim Romney was going to put women back in aprons and take away their rights and that Obama wanted to get the government’s hands into everything and get us all dumb and on welfare so he could create a Muslim state.
Stephen Bartlett
From the Editor’s Desk Really?! And now, as I write this, I wonder: Who will be the president? Will all the grim predictions come true? Will it be dark and horrible and oppressive and hell on earth? I hope not, and I highly doubt it, but doesn’t it sort of have to be? I mean, if all the things we were so frightened and angry about,
these things we felt so driven by, don’t come true, then maybe we yelled at grandma and called her an idiot for nothing. Maybe we looked down at our co-workers for nothing. Maybe we bought into the hype and insulted our neighbors, and shared and posted some intensely graphic and evil and mean-spirited, but apparently prophetic, things on Facebook for nothing. Some might say, “C’mon, Facebook, whatever.” Well, life is happening and has been happening on Facebook for some time now and with the same results: Love, hate, anger, laughter, tears, joy, abuse. Yes, some idiotic things were said by lawmakers and we were right to call them on it, but are we really never going to talk to our friend we made shortly after birth because they support the individual we decided was a manifestation of pure evil. So basically, what we are saying is there are some of us, even many of us, who thought Romney or Obama was akin to Jeffrey Dahmer.
Many of us definitely lost our sense of humor this election, unless it was us picking on the candidate we opposed. And oh my, did so many of us ever become so oblivious to obvious wrongs committed by our candidate. Obama could punch a baby and a Democrat would say, “Well, did you hear how loud that baby was crying,” or, “I really think he slipped,” even as Obama did a dance and kissed his fist. And that goes both ways. So now I wonder, when I read this in print, will the anger still be there, or will we become humble and apologize and forgive and forget, and not just because we won. I’m already examining where I might need to offer an apology and figure out how to prevent such behavior in the future. Unless, of course, the world ends, and then I guess grandma really was an idiot. Stephen Bartlett may be reached at stephen@denpubs.com
Our life coaches, Style and Substance: Where are you going in life? Dear style & substance readers: Do you ever really look in the mirror and wonder who you are, how you got to this point in life, and where you are going? It sounds crazy, but lately I have been questioning everything in my life. I do have a pretty good job and a fairly sound relationship, but seem to ponder this question a lot. I am wondering if others think about this too. We think that what you are getting at is the question, “what drives my life?”, “what is my purpose?” or as one husband would say, “where am I going with this?” We also think that delving into these questions can energize, simplify, focus and give new meaning to your life. So it is worth exploring! Anybody with an ounce of awareness thinks these thoughts. Wondering about our place in the world drives everything we do and shapes who we are, who we love, and even the work we do. Thoughtful people are constantly changing and adapting to the world as we read, learn, and expand our horizons. Questioning is a sign of a keen intellect – this positive stress (eustress) can help motivate you to reflect on your life and can also give you the edge you need to make changes to guide your life in a new direction. Transitions can often cause these existential questions to consume our waking and sleeping hours. A transition can be hitting a milestone birthday, a child growing up and/or leaving home, a career or relationship change, births, deaths and our body’s natural responses to aging. Instead of thinking that “something is wrong”, use this time as an opportunity to reflect on your life, to begin to respond to a more positive question, “where am I headed with my life
and how does it reflect what I believe in?”. Questioning is not the same as discounting your life up to that specific point in time; rather it is a time to embrace change and take some “calculated risks.” Pondering life’s big questions can be immobilizing if you allow yourself to dwell in the negative – be realistic in your assessment of your self – your strengths and areas you would like to improve. Real growth and maturity only come from a frank and honest reflection on your life and a commitment to live with purpose. Purpose does not have to be a big idea, living a life of purpose can mean something as simple as being honest in all things, caring for animals, or practicing a faith or religion. We have come up with two ways of beginning this quest; Firstly, if a negatively driven life is based on guilt, resentment, fear, need for approval or materialism; then it is easy to see what a positively driven life might feel and look like. It is by tending to these aspects of our life, the barriers to the positive, that we might find the answer. Where do you have unresolved concerns? What are your fears and are they based on reality? How do your actions change by what other ’s think? Answering these questions, puts closure on the past and sets us free to resolve the unresolved or to move on. The positively driven life is led by someone who has forgiven, resolved, reconciled and is not bogged down by guilt. They have tied up loose ends, kept promises, and not made excuses. And secondly, another good step is to think about a time when you took a risk and it paid off in more happiness or success. What was happening in your life that gave you the courage to try? Was it a relationship? Did you meet somebody that inspired you or needed you to inspire

Duprey wins re-election to 115th Assembly seat By Stephen Bartlett
stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — This was the nastiest race Republican Janet Duprey has ever participated in. She’s proud she kept it clean on her end. And ultimately, she won, securing another term in the 115th Assembly Seat. “Now it’s time to get this campaign behind me and get back to full time Assembly work,” Duprey said Tuesday night at the West Side Ballroom in Plattsburgh, headquarters for the Republicans on election night. A total of three candidates ran for the 115th Assembly Seat. Running were Duprey; Karen Bisso, a Plattsburgh City School teacher running as the Conservative Party candidate; and Democrat Timothy Carpenter, a City of Plattsburgh Councilor from
Ward 1. Duprey came under attack by opponents for retiring and also collecting a salary. She explained during the campaign that she put in 31 years in county government and earned her retirement, a decision she made to protect her family. She further pointed out that the law allows an individual to retire and hold an elected position. Duprey also came under fire for supporting gay marriage. She firmly believes gay marriage is a human rights issue and people are entitled to happiness with the person they love. She doesn’t understand how anyone can deny someone the opportunity to be happy with someone he or she loves and wants to share a life with while enjoying the same legal protections that are not available without a marriage. Duprey noted that the attacks against her began as soon as her opponent started campaigning. “It just kept going along that same tone,”
Duprey said. “Instead of what they were going to do, it was shots at me, and it was offensive.” She said 90 percent of the people she spoke with thanked her for remaining positive. Some days it would have been easier to take some of her own shots at her opponent, but she wanted her grandchild to know bullying does not work. “I don’t understand it,” Duprey said. “It was so negative.” She is eager to put the campaign behind her and get back to work. She looks forward to touring facilities such as schools and prisons again. Duprey believes she does everything she can to meet the needs of constituents who call her. She prides herself on being bipartisan. “I am proud of that.”Duprey looks forward to serving in the Assembly for another two years and said she loves the position. “I think we are able to do good things.”

Owens re-elected to Congress By John Gereau
Johng@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Incumbent U.S. Rep. Bill Owens (D-Plattsburgh) was elected to a third term in a tightly contested race against Republican opponent Matt Doheny on General Election Day, Nov 6. Owens, a longtime local Plattsburgh attorney, won with 50 percent of the vote compared to Doheny's 48 percent. Third party candidate Donald Hassig — who was denounced by the Green Party following comments he made at a candidate forum in mid-October and then later threw his support behind Owens — siphoned off two percent of the vote. Reached for comment in Watertown following the balloting, Doheny spokeswoman Laura Chambers said Doheny will follow the absentee ballots but said he was officially conceding the race. She said he is not ruling out another run in the future. With 93 percent of the voting districts report-
ing, the balloting stood at 106,489 for Owens and 103,059 for Doheny. Bill Owens arrived at American Legion Post 20, the Democrat headquarters in Clinton County, shortly after midnight to loud applause. He walked up to the podium and said, "About three minutes ago, Matt Doheny called me to concede." "A tremendous amount of work went into this," he told the crowd assembled. "So many folks went above and beyond. As you go through this process, you certainly learn a lot, and my education continues.” “I will continue to represent you from the ground up. We need to bring the middle class up,” he said, noting that President Barack Obama won a second term in office. “I hope this causes us to come to rational compromise and next year we do things that are a benefit to us all. We need to make sure we are lifting all of us up so all of us are doing better two years from now. We need rational compromise. I will reach across the aisle and forge compromises that make sense.” Owens won in two of the four local counties. He won handily in his home county of Clinton by
are 174,028 enrolled Republicans and 116,026 Democrats in the district. A former Wall Street investment banker who lives in Watertown, Doheny ran on a platform of promising to unshackle small business by removing burdensome government regulations and said he’d fight to repeal the national Affordable Health Care Act, also dubbed “Obamacare.” Owens voted in favor of the Affordable Health Care Act in 2010 saying portions of it are vital to protect the health of citizens — like forcing insurance companies to provide coverage for pre-existing conditions,extending coverage for college students up to age 26 under their parents’ health plans, and banning insurance companies from cancelling insurance of those who are ill. Doheny also challenged Owens two years ago with a similar outcome. In 2010, Owens won the race, capturing 48 percent to Doheny's 46 percent in the 12-county district. A third candidate, Doug Hoffman drew off 6 percent of the vote on the Conservative Party line. A Siena Research Institute poll released five days before Election Day showed Owens and Doheny in a statistical dead heat, and former New York Governor George Pataki spent a majority of the day before Tuesday conducting last-minute campaigning alongside Doheny, later endorsing the congressional hopeful in Plattsburgh.
Congressman Bill Owens addresses his supporters after hearing that his challenger Matt Doheny had conceded the race for the 21st congressional district. the tally of 16,554 to 9,979 and won in nearby Essex County 7,213 to 6,181. Doheny took Warren County 13,017 to 11,381 and Hamilton County 1,555 to 897. There are more than 17,000 absentee ballots still yet to be counted, so a final count will not be known for more than a week. According to the state Board of Elections, there

Longtime Plattsburgh State icon moving on By Stephen Bartlett
stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH – William Laundry is a Plattsburgh State icon. But he says it’s time for him to go, and this January, the university’s vice president of student affairs will retire. “To me, it seems that the time is very right for me to retire,” Laundry said. “We just received a wonderful Middle States (accreditation) review.” Plattsburgh State is also not in the midst of a budget crisis. The university benefits from excellent leadership, and the Student Affairs division enjoys strong leadership. “It’s the perfect time to go,” Laundry said. Laundry will retire effective Jan. 1, 2013, after more than four decades at Plattsburgh State. “Bill will be missed by students, staff and faculty alike,” said Plattsburgh State President John Ettling. “In fact, his warmth and his dedication to the campus have made him something of an icon among our alumni.” Ettling expects to continue to see Laundry on campus after his retirement. Laundry came to Plattsburgh State as housing director in 1969. Since then, he has served as director of residence life, director of campus life,
dean of students, associate vice president for student affairs and vice president for student affairs. Laundry belongs to several college-wide committees and serves as adviser to the Student Association Finance Board. He is a member of Omicron Delta Kappa, the national leadership honor society for students, faculty, staff and administrators. Laundry further serves on the Plattsburgh Campus-Community Partnership. Laundry is secretary of the AuSable Forks High School Alumni Association and is on the board of directors for the UFirst Federal Credit Union. He also belongs Hawkeye Conservationists, Clinton County Historical Association, the Plattsburgh Memorial Chapel Board of Directors and is marriage officer for the City of Plattsburgh. Laundry was the seventh person in Plattsburgh State’s history to be honored as an honorary alumnus. In Oct 2006, the Student Association suite in the Angell College Center was named after him. Bryan Hartman, associate vice president for student affairs and director of residence life has been selected to fill the position on an interim basis. Hartman graduated from Plattsburgh State in 1988 and started working for the college in 1993, becoming director of residence life in 2005 and associate vice president for student affairs in 2011. “Bryan is an excellent choice to take the helm of the division,” Laundry said.
Ettling agreed. Hartman will miss Laundry. “I think the initial news is somewhat of a shock to many people because it is difficult to imagine this place without Bill in that role,” Hartman said. “The leadership and stability he has provided us in that division has truly been a blessing.” Laundry will miss working with faculty and staff and interacting with students, though he plans to remain in Plattsburgh and volunteer at the college. He is eager to read more books, travel, spend more time at Silver Lake and attend college and community events. He is grateful for the path Plattsburgh is on. “It seems to me that we are constantly looking for ways to improve for the benefit of the stu-
William Laundry dents,” he said. “We’ve had a good last 10 years, and my hope is that we will continue to move forward.”

Torch bearer Matt Thomson and his father, Mark, after the Polar Plunge.
Polar Plunge from page 1 an athlete. “I like being the torch bearer,” he said. And when the crowd took off, Thomson ran with them, some screaming, a few diving in the 52-degree water, others conducting a hurried loop and racing desperately back toward the beach. As of the morning of the event, the more than 200 signed up had raised more than $23,500 for the third annual Plattsburgh Polar Plunge for Special Olympics New York. “The impact their efforts will have on Special Olympics athletes will last a lifetime,” said Erin McCartan, Development Specialist for Special Olympics New York.
Last year ’s event raised more than $42,000, with roughly 350 people sprinting into chilly Lake Champlain as friends, family and supporters watched from the shore. Sponsors of the event included Ambit Energy, Eagle 97.5, FOP Lodge 999, Olive Ridley’s, Plattsburgh Distributing, Taylor Rental & Party Plus of Plattsburgh and Saranac Lake, Pepsi Beverages Company, Dunkin Donuts, KFC and A&W. A team of Ambit Energy consultants were the top income earners, raising more than $7,000. The team raised more than $9,700 the year before. Team Captain Pam Ryan helped form a team and started participating three years ago. She had an aunt with Down Syndrome who died at age 13 and said she feels blessed to be part of the event. Ambit team member Tricia McCartney has taught special education for 29 years and supports the Special Olympics. “It is amazing to see the smiles on the athletes’ faces.” Special Olympics is the largest amateur sports organization in the world. With 51,809 athletes, Special Olympics New York is the largest chapter in North America and the sixth largest chapter in the world. Special Olympics New York athletes train and compete year-roud in 22 sports, the Young Athletes Program and the Motor Activities Training Program, at no cost to athletes, their families or caregivers. “We raise $1 million for athletes,” McCartan said. “This is probably the most rewarding job I could have asked for.” Prior to the plunge, those gathered danced and worked out to Zumba, enjoying food and refreshments and participating in a costume contest. Divers and paramedics stood by as participants raced into the water at noon, making their way back to the beach, red and shivering. “We raised close to $2,000,” said Mark Thomson, whose son Matt was the torch bearer.
Matt plays basketball for the Special Olympics. “I went to the state games,” he said. “It was fun.”

And if energy is any indication, attendees were ecstatic to be there. Barna took the stage to an energized crowd chanting “Michael! Michael!” and cooked with enthusiasm throughout, often pausing to engage audience members and crack jokes. The show’s eight national sponsors each submitted a recipe, and two were picked from reader submissions. “The performance aspect is huge,” Barna said. “I’m not teaching them how to dice a piece of celery, that’s not what I’m here for. I’m not teaching them how to cook, I’m teaching them these ten recipes and how to do them with tons of tips and tricks.” Barna prepared the ten recipes for the crowd, including veggie lasagna, sausage stuffed mushrooms and upsidedown apple pie. In between recipes, Barna also raffled off more than 70 items. The grand prize, a range from Wilson Appliances, went to Sherri Provost. Other prizes included a Chazy Orchard gift basket, cookbooks, a coffee maker and jewelry.

Plattsburgh High girls advance to regional finals after winning B title By Keith Lobdell
keith@denpubs.com CHAZY — Scoring came early to start each half, but it was a goal with five minutes remaining that decided the Section VII/Class B title game. Plattsburgh High’s Brooke Knight and Amelia Jenks of Saranac traded goals in the eighth and 49th minutes, but it was Knight who found herself on a break-away, burying the ball into the right side of the net to give the Hornets a 2-1 victory. “It feels great,” Knight said. “It took us a lot to get here. Look at us now.” Knight opened the scoring early, taking a rebound off a shot from Marle Curle and converting to give the Hornets the 1-0 advantage. “I got a rebound and I was able to just kick it in,” she said. Early in the second half, Amy LoTemplio took a direct kick for the Chiefs, angling the ball toward the PHS net, where a defender attempted to clear the ball in front of goalie Karlie Neale. The ball, however, found the foot of Amelia Jenks, who collected it and scored the equalizer. The game remained tied throughout the remainder of the second half until just under six minutes to play, when the Chiefs had another direct kick. The Hornets were able to
control the ball off the kick and Hailey McLaughlin found Knight running up the middle of the field. “I wanted to cut it back and find the back of the net,” Knight said. “When I saw the defender coming at me, I saw where she was going and I knew where I wanted to go.” “There was a lot of pressure on her to create some chances and she did,” head coach Tim Mulligan said. The Hornets held a 17-5 advantage in shots, but Saranac made the most of their chances, putting everything on goalie Karlie Neale. “I know that the Napper girl is a great forward and I had my eye on her the whole game,” Neale said. “I tried to be as big as possible and nothing was going to get by.” “She had two or three key saves,” Mulligan said. “We knew Saranac would get their chances and she did a great job of limiting them.” Neale finished with four saves, while Jamie Favreau had 11 saves in the game. “This is a great group of girls to work with,” Mulligan said. “We set some goals for ourselves at the beginning of the season to be a championship team. We came up on the wrong end of some close games against some really good teams. Anyone could win on any given day and we knew it was going to be a battle. When sectionals came, we knew it was a second season.”
Brooke Knight, 23, has scored four goals over her past two games, adding two as the Hornets defeated Potsdam, 3-0, in regional semifinal play. Photo by Keith Lobdell
Section VII continues dominance over Section X in football as Peru cruises CLINTONVILLE — The Peru Indians, Saranac Lake Red Storm and Moriah Vikings reminded their respective Section X foes which side used to own the Northern Football Conference Nov. 3. The day started in Clintonville, as the Red Storm scored 35 unanswered points to turn a 7-6 edge into a 42-12 trouncing of Ogdensburg Free Academy. Matt Phelan continued his impressive season as the Storm signal-caller, connecting for three touchdown passes while running for another. Phelan connected with Kevin Morgan from 10 yards out to open the scoring after OFA deferred on the coin toss to give the Red Storm a 7-0 lead. After OFA scored to cut the lead to 7-6, Phelan again found Morgan for a 65-yard scoring play. Phelan closed out the scoring in the first quarter with a 40-yard run while closing out his team’s scoring in the third quarter on a 34-yard pass to Seth Pickreign.

Champagne, Gadway capture cross country titles at Cobble Hill course By Keith Lobdell
keith@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — Seton Catholic’s Margaret Champagne defended her Section VII individual cross country title Nov. 2, while Jeriqho Gadway of Plattsburgh High scored his first title at the Cobble Hill Golf Course. “I had more racing experience and I knew what I wanted to do,” Champagne said about her second title. “I really like this course with all of the hills. I wanted to go out hard and try to keep ahead of everyone.” Champagne crossed the line in a time of 18:05, 25 seconds ahead of Peru’s Ashley Leta. “The beginning was easy, in the middle of the ace the hills were hard,” Gadway said. “The second time is a little difficult going up the hill. It is a really nice course.” Gadway said that he had rolled an ankle training for the event, but he still ran a dominating race, crossing the line in 15:14, 12 seconds ahead of Mitchell Ryan of Seton Catholic. Champagne said she was prepared to return to states. “I am really excited and I am just going to try and do my best there,” she said.

Plattsburgh High wins sectional swim title, sends seven Hornets to states By Keith Lobdell
keith@denpubs.com CLINTONVILLE — The Plattsburgh High girls swim team earned the Section VII title Nov. 3 in the AuSable Valley pool while eight swimmers from PHS and AuSable Valley punched their tickets to the NYSPHSAA meet. The Hornets scored 421 points in winning the sectional title, almost doubling second place finisher Peru 223. AuSable Valley finished third with 220 points, while Moriah was fourth with 166 points. Seven of the eight individuals heading to the state meet were from Plattsburgh, with Amanda Leonard, Alexis Kelley and Brooke Kelley each earning two individual titles and two relay titles. “I started crying (after my first race) but I knew that I had to keep going,” Leonard, a junior who won the 50 and 100 free along with being part of the 400 free and 200 medley relay, said. “It was a real competitive field and I knew I would have to have a good time.”
“I was so excited,” eighth grader Brooke Kelley, individual 200 medley and 100 breaststroke along with 400 free and 200 medley relay, said. “I was going for my personal best and that was what I was aiming for.” “I left it all out in the pool,” sophomore Alexis Kelley, individual 100 butterfly and 100 backstroke champion along with 400 free and 200 medley relay champ, said. “I try to set my goals high and when I meet them, I am really excited. Both Kelley sisters talked about the excitement they have swimming with and against each other. “We push each other a lot in practice,” Brooke said. “I love to swim with her,” Alexis said. “She is so good and I am so proud of her.” Kelsey Primard qualified for states as part of the 200 medley and 200 free relay teams. Brin Keyser also qualified for two state relay teams in the 200 and 400 free relays. Niki Rodgers and Toni Lavalley both qualified for states in the 200 free relay. “They have been working off each other every day in the pool,” PHS head coach Jay
Toni Lavalley and Amanda Leonard of Plattsburgh High break from the board in the 100 yard freestyle, along with Alexis Provost of AuSable Valley. Leonard earned four sectional titles in the meet. Photo by Keith Lobdell Ruff said about his team. “Most of their times are very close, and it is good to see that work pay off.” The host Patriots were not shutout at their meet, with eighth-grader Emily McCormick winning the 200 and 500 freestyle events. “She is a worker,” AVCS head coach Andy
Johnson said. “Every day she puts in the time and works harder than anyone else.” “It’s awesome and I am really happy that I did it,” McCormick said. “My goal was to have a good race and I just wanted to be my personal best time. This is a really big deal for me.”
Peru Indians, Seton Catholic Knights fall in sectional final contests By Keith Lobdell
keith@denpubs.com CHAZY — After being upset in the 2011 Class B playoffs, the Northeastern Clinton Cougars were fired up for a chance to return to state play. They followed through on that goal Nov. 2, as Austin Tetreault scored twice and Kyle McCarthy added another in a 3-0 victory over the Peru Indians to win the Section VII/Class B title. The Cougars were led by a solid defensive effort, which saw Josh Rabideau make six saves, including one with the help of Tom Bedard, to clinch the clean sheet. “They played us hard all year and they are going to be good next year,” Bedard said about Peru. “We had to battle.” “It was outstanding,” defender Rodney Grimshaw said. “It was everything that we could have asked for defensively. We all played together and I do not think a ball was going to get by Josh.” “All season long, we have stressed working hard on defense,” head coach Dale Hawksby said. “The difference tonight was we had to go out and score first.” The Cougars did score first, taking advantage of a corner kick in the 13th minute. Avery Trombley sent a ball into the box from the right corner, with Tetreault and McCarthy making a run into the box. The ball found the head of Tetreault, getting by Peru keeper Michael Danis for a 1-0 lead. “We go through it all the time in practice and Avery played in a great ball,” Tetreault
Chris Kustos settles the ball for the Seton Catholic Knights. Photo by Keith Lobdell said. The score remained the same through the remainder of the first half, and the Indians held a 7-6 advantage in shots heading into halftime. The Cougars found breathing room in the 56th minute, when a scramble in front of the
net resulted in shots by Ryan Marks and McCarthy, who found the net. For the Cougars, it was their fourth win over the Indians for the season. “It has been tough, head-to-head all season long,” Hawksby said. “They had some quality shots on net in the first half and Josh stepped up and made some great saves. All of the games have been really close all season.” For McCarthy, who formerly played for and won a state championship with Chazy, the win allowed him to hold a sectional title on his former home field. “It’s great to win a title on this field,” he said. “It brings back a lot of great memories and it is great to be making new memories with this team.” Along with McCarthy, Hawksby can call on several players to remind his team the work it takes to advance deep into state play. “That’s a big help,” he said. “They really help the other kids know what it will take to get there. It’s going to be a big help for the younger kids letting them know that we can do this.” The Cougars will face the regional semifinal winner between Sections II and X on Saturday, Nov. 10, at Plattsburgh High School.
Knights fall to Bombers PLATTSBURGH — The time has come for Lake Placid boys varsity soccer. Haile Thompson scored goals in the 35th and 68th minutes as the Blue Bombers earned their first-ever Section VII/Class C boys soccer championship, beating Seton
Catholic 2-0 on Nov. 1. “It’s unexplainable. It feels great,” Thompson said. “I am never going to forget this, that’s for sure.” “My job at the beginning of the season was to win two games,” head coach Stuart Hemsley said. “The two games we had to win were the semifinals and finals of sectionals to put a banner on the wall that they have never done in the history of the school.” While the Bombers controlled possession throughout most of the first half, it was a counter attack out of the Knights end of the field that opened up the scoring. Kegan Barney put a ball in toward the Seton net, and Thompson was able to collect the rebound and score the opening goal of the game. “We have been moving the ball pretty well,” Thompson said. “We have had a solid defense that clears the ball out and we have been able to capitalize on solid chances.” Hemsley said that he joked with his team about the nature of the goal. “I asked them, how do you like that scrappy goal,” Hemsley said. “A goal is a goal. It does not go down Lake Placid one scrappy goal one good one; it goes down as Lake Placid 2-0.” Thompson scored again in the 68th minute, connecting with his head on a corner kick by Andrew Meister. The Bombers ended with a 20-9 advantage in shots, with Knights goalie Keagan Briggs making 10 saves and Chris Korzdiel recording four saves to earn the clean sheet. The Bombers also held a 5-2 advantage in corner kicks.
