shawn@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ ThereÕ s an energy in the air at the KentDelord house, as the museum is readied ready for absent relatives to return from a long trip away.

Betsey Delord and Henry Livingston-Webb, or more precisely their portraits, will be returning to the Plattsburgh museum after a long absence while they underwent restoration work at the Williamston Art Conservation Center in Massachusetts. The restoration cleared away decades of accumulated grime and yellowed varnish to reveal details about their facial features and dress previously hidden to time.

Kaifetz will receive the honor plaque at the 40th annual WOW 462 awards ceremony and banquet scheduled for Friday, May 2, at the Rainbow Banquet Facility in Altona.

Through KaifetzÕ s leadership, the local Honor Flight chapter was able to send a total of 80 local World War II veterans, free of charge, on five flights to Washington DC for first-time visits to see their National Memorial in 2013. This year the N.C. Honor flight committee is planning to double that, hoping to send a total 160 WWII vets to DC on ten flights. This year’s first Honor flight is scheduled for Saturday, May 17.

Also being honored by the Woodmen on May 2 will Sharon Ramsey of Rouses Point for her efforts for the needy. She will be recognized with the WoodmenÕ s Ò Caring for OthersÓ award.

Lucid wins musical March Madness tournament from behind Comes all the way back from a lowly 16 seed

By Shawn Ryan

shawn@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ It isnÕ t often that a 16 seed runs the table and wins it all, buts thatÕ s just what Plattsburgh band Lucid did in Upstate LiveÕ s inaugural 64 band tournament recently.

Modeled after the March Madness college basketball tournament, New York-based music guide Upstate Live pitted 64 bands from across New York state against each other in a regionally bracketed tournament. The bands then took to social media to urge their fans to vote them through to rounds. Ò It was kind of a stressful couple weeks, more so than I thought,Ó said Lucid percussionist and singer Lowell Wurster. Ò ItÕ s hard enough being a musician without the competition part, but then the athlete in me came out, and I wanted to win this thing.Ó Wurster spent much of the month working Facebook, sending out reminders to vote and links to LucidÕ s music to forward to people not familiar with the band.

Being the only band from Plattsburgh in the tournament, LucidÕ s devoted fan-base wasnÕ t forced to split votes. Along with local fans, after 10 years of relentless touring, Lucid has built up a legion of fans across the entire North East region. Ò It was really kind of cool to see how broad our network stretched. To ask people to do something and get this overwhelming response, and theyÕ re going out and getting their friends, and their grandmas, and their moms, so it was kind of cool,Ó said LucidÕ s front-man and songwriter Kevin Sabourin. After celebrating their 10 year anniversary as a band this past month, the summer is shaping up to be a busy one for Lucid. Along with being one of the organizers for

and we just thought about how about doing Crowfest, which is a week after Backwoods, so we thought about doing some other farms. What we want to do in the summer is be outside, like anyone else,Ó said Wurster.

This coming week Lucid will be playing an acoustic show April 24 at the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship on Palmer Street, and will be playing at the Plattsburgh Half-Marathon April 27.

NY-21 race picture clears up after petitions, endorsements

By Pete DeMola

and cancer conspiracy theories, for a race in 2020.

pete@denpubs.com

For more of the story please go online to the-burgh.com

ELIZABETHTOWN Ñ ItÕ s been three months since Congressman Bill Owens (D-Plattsburgh) announced his retirement from the House of Representatives after a four-year stint, a decision that kicked off an immediate rush of candidates from all ends of the political spectrum to replace him in a race that has already started to attract national attention as a swing district crucial in drafting the electoral road map for House control.

Petitions

For ballot access, major party hopefuls had to submit signatures equal to five percent of the enrolled voters of the political unit (or 1,250 signatures) by Friday, April 10. To meet the filing deadline set by the state board of elections, candidates and their campaigns have been criss-crossing the expansive district, which is some 16,000 square miles and contains over 400,000 enrolled voters, in the quest for support.

HereÕ s how they made out and what comes next in the race.

Democratic party

Aaron Woolf, the New York City-based candidate who also lives in Elizabethtown, a political novice who narrowly avoided derailing his campaign with a monthlong period of silence following his endorsement by 11 of the 12 Democratic committee chairs on Feb. 12, passed the ballot threshold and will appear on the primary ballot. Ò Our campaign is thrilled that we obtained nearly three times more signatures than needed to make the Democratic Party primary ballot and had twice as many signatures as needed for the Working Families Party ballot,Ó Woolf campaign manager Stuart Rosenberg said in a written statement. Ò We are excited by the momentum that is growing in our campaign throughout the district and look forward to continuing conversations with residents in the 21st Congressional District on how, working together, we can create jobs and grow our economy here in the North Country.Ó Essex County Democratic committee chair Bethany Kosmider said her organization was Ò exuberantly happyÓ over the amount of support that Essex County and all the counties of the 21st Congressional District have given to Aaron Woolf. Ò Petition signatures for Aaron far surpassed our expectations and that speaks volumes of the grassroots enthusiasm that our candidate has.Ó Woolf was the only candidate aside from Stefanik who released his campaign’s first quarter fundraising numbers by the time this story went to press on Tuesday, April 15: Records provided by his campaign show the candidate raised $205,000 in the 40 days since establishing his fundraising account with the Federal Elections Commission on Feb. 21.

More than 300 citizens offered donations, said the report, with over 60 percent of the funds coming from within the state and over 60 percent of the donors to the campaign giving less than $250. Ò I am extremely proud of the great start to our campaign and can feel the momentum as we speak with residents throughout the 21st Congressional District,Ó Woolf said in a written statement. Ò This election is about priorities and the priorities of Elise Stefanik and Matt Doheny are misplaced and misguided.Ó Steven Burke, the Macomb town board member who jumped into the race following WoolfÕ s initial monthlong silence and has been given the cold shoulder by the party establishment, said he met the filing deadline and turned his signatures to the board of elections on Thursday, April 9 and received an official letter of confirmation, which he recited to the Valley News during a phone call. Ò Let the race begin,Ó he said.

Burke, who was nailed to the wall by the Adirondack Daily Enterprise last month for allegedly lying about his age, said he now plans on visiting each county ahead of the primary and collecting signatures for ballot access was an Ò eye-opener.Ó Ò Going door-to-door meeting with people across the district and speaking with them really put things in perspective: their needs and expectations from the government. People are worried about the economy, worried about jobs and they just want a good living in the North Country,Ó he said. Ò And of course, thereÕ s always the complaint about taxes.Ó Barring legal challenges by either of the campaigns, the two Democratic candidates can look forward to nine weeks of campaigning across the expansive district before registered Democrats hit the polls for the primary on June 24.

Republican party

The NY-21 District

tered members of that party), appeared displeased and criticized the committeeÕ s decision on Friday: Ò The sad fact is the Executive Committee of the State Conservative Party is just another Big Brother,Ó he said in an email statement. Ò While disappointed with todayÕ s decision, we are not deterred and with the Republican and Independence party lines our campaign will continue. Like the people of the North Country, we donÕ t quit. Our campaign will continue to reach out and work with all like-minded Conservative, Republican and Independent voters to spread our message of lower taxes and greater opportunity. Together the will of the people will win out over the will of Washington insiders.Ó On Monday, his campaign offered a succinct one-word statement to comments Conservative Party chairman Mike Long made to the Glens Falls Post-Star on Friday that he preferred to see Doheny drop out to better StefanikÕ s chances of uniting the GOP for the general election: Ò Nuts!Ó Both Stefanik and Doheny circulated petitions seeking the Conservative PartyÕ s support. While both collected more than enough signatures to appear on that partyÕ s line, since both are GOP members, they needed the Conservative PartyÕ s executive committee to play kingmaker.

The endorsement means Stefanik will be listed on the Conservative ballot line for the general election in November while Matt Doheny will appear on the Independence line, meaning that voters can look forward to a potential internecine race in November regardless of who wins the Republican primary on June 24. Ò Elise is extremely bright and is a wonderful speaker,Ó said Essex County GOP Committee Chair Ron Jackson, who endorsed StefanikÕ s campaign shortly after her announcement to run last August, during a phone call with the Valley News. Ò Anyone who listens to her speak comes away impressed. I think sheÕ s going to win the primary and fall right into the job, an effective representative for the North Country from day one.Ó Joe Gilbert, the GOP hopeful whose campaign failed to gain traction despite strong Tea Party support and impeccable military credentials, failed to submit petitions for the Republican line by FridayÕ s deadline, thus effectively removing himself from contention unless he decides to run on a third-party line.

Gilbert cited family issues for his decision and told the Valley News in a phone call that he still may run on the Constitution and Libertarian Party lines in the event he decides to re-enter the race: Ò IÕ m not in a position to pursue this full time, but IÕ m prepared to give everything IÕ ve got after assessing my personal life,Ó he said. Ò IÕ m still going to raise hell from the sidelines whether IÕ m in the race or not.Ó

Green party

Matt Funiciello, a Glens Falls-based baker running for his partyÕ s nod in a rare primary, said he collected the requisite amount of signatures and will face off against Don Hassig on June 24. Ò I look forward to a rewarding race introducing myself, my ideas and those of the Green Party to the people in our district and to becoming the first Green Party member elected to Congress,Ó said Funiciello in a written statement. Ò I see no reason to expect that voters seeking meaningful and historic change in their representation would not choose to vote for me. It is the brave thing to do. And we are a brave people.Ó Hassig told the Valley News that he has collected enough signatures and looks forward to a competitive race. Ò A primary will be very productive of news media coverage on the issues of our two campaigns. The issues are the essence of Green Party participation in the electoral process,Ó he said.

Party brass have repeatedly said they will not endorse a candidate for the primary and have distanced themselves from Hassig after the candidate made statements that were perceived as xenophobic at a forum in Wanakena in 2012.

Hassig, unlike the other candidates, has openly told the Valley News hat he doesnÕ t plan on winning this year and is using his candidacy as a way to garner attention to his signature issues, namely fracking

Elise Stefanik, the 29-year-old Willsboro resident with strong national ties to the GOP and 2012 Vice Presidential Candidate Paul Ryan, collected four times the necessary amount of signatures to land on the GOP ballot, ensuring a primary face-off on June 24 with Matt Doheny, a Watertown-based investment banker and three-time congressional candidate who also passed the threshold.

On Friday, April 10, Stefanik also netted a coveted endorsement by the state Conservative Party after collecting over 700 signatures, far more than the required 281. Ò IÕ m honored and humbled that after such thoughtful consideration, the Conservative Party has entrusted their faith in me to win back New YorkÕ s 21st District this November,Ó she said in a statement on Friday. Ò As a principled conservative, I understand that we cannot win back the North Country as Republicans without the help and support of the Conservative Party.Ó Stefanik had said earlier that she plans on running a positive campaign and looks forward to a unified GOP race later this fall.

Reports from her campaign annouced a first quarter haul of $268,000 by 414 individual donors, 310 of which kicked in donations at or below $250.

Portraits

Continued from page 1 Along with the aesthetic enhancements to the portraits, museum director Don Wickman was given an interesting proposition from the Conservation Center. Originally painted in 1818, BetseyÕ s painting was added to in 1835 at the direction of Livingston-Webb. Since that time, nobody has been sure what was covered up.

They called me and asked if I wanted the 1835 modification undone,Ó said Wickman. Ò I said no, because thatÕ s part of the history of the painting.Ó What the Conservation Center was able to do, however, was supply Wickman with an x-radiograph showing the portrait that lies beneath the 1835 touch-up.

Due to the prohibitive cost, Wickman has no plans restore any of the remaining portraits at Kent-Delord.

The board of directors will host a reception for the return of the portraits April 24, from 5:30 - 7 p.m. Contact the Kent-Delord House at 561-1035 for more information.

Along with the unveiling of the two portraits, the Wickman is actively preparing the museumÕ s displays for the summer season, showcasing the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Plattsburgh. Along with their extensive standing exhibits, Wickman is preparing and staging one of the original rooms of the museum as a period-correct officer’s quarters from the War of 1812. During the Battle of Plattsburgh the Kent Delord house, which looks out over Plattsburgh bay and the mouth of the Saranac River, was taken over by the British and used as their headquarters.

One of the main focal points of the battle displays will be an assortment of poems and sonnets written by Plattsburgh residents, many who had been involved in the Battle or the defense of Plattsburgh, written soon after the battle. Ò In that time it was commonplace for people to write songs or poems commemorating a big event,Ó said Wickman.

“The Banks of Champlain” It was Autumn and round me the leaves were descending And nought but the drumming bird tapped on the tree While thousands their freedom and rights were defending, The din of their arms sounded dismal to me.

For Sandy, my love, was engaged in the action, Without him I value this world not a fraction, His death would have ended my life in distraction As mournful I strayed on the banks of Champlain.

Then turning to rest from the cannons loud thunder, My elbow I leaned on a rock near the shore.

The sound nearly parted my heart strings asunder, I thought I should see my dear Sandy no more.

But soon an express all my sorrows suspended, My thanks to the Father of mercies ascended, My Sandy was safe and my country defended, By freedomÕ s brave sons on the banks of Champlain.

Oh the cannon roar ceased but the drums were still beating, As far to the northward our foes were retreating.

My friends and my neighbors each other were greeting, Victorious on the banks of Champlain.

New York, the Green Mountains, Macomb and MacDonough, The farmer, the soldier, the sailor, the gunner, United each party has pledged their honor, To conquer or die on the banks of Champlain.

Composed by Catherine Macomb, wife of General Alexander Macomb

The Burgh Editorial

Schools need fresh ideas A W

hile North County school districts received a small degree of relief with last monthÕ s state budget figures that announced a $602 million reinstatement of the state aid that school officials say is crucial to maintaining education programs for their students, and an overall fund increase of $1.1 billion, we feel as if more needs to be done to explore more creative ways of bridging the budget shortfalls that continue to plague districts.

Reach out to alumni. ItÕ s a bitter pill to swallow that the North Country is hemorrhaging young people as they leave the region in droves for higher education and career paths outward. A crucial argument underpinning the need to keep districts intact is that theyÕ ve fostered collective senses of shared schematic experience; of a group identity; of experiences that have shaped young minds into the adults they are today. If their salad days have played such a crucial role in their development, then it bears to reason that graduates whoÕ ve fanned across the globe wouldnÕ t mind kicking in some coin to ensure that those who follow in their footsteps are ensured the same priceless experiences.

Look outward. Make use of the federal F-1 visa program that requires foreign students to pay tuition to study at American high schools. Between 2007 and 2012, the number of F-1 students at American high schools increased tenfold, and the number is only set to increase as formerly insular countries across the Middle East and Asia begin to realize the value of globalization. But despite our gregarious and welcoming nature, America has an odd, often contradictory and politicized viewpoint towards immigration and if our rural school districts want to remain intact, they need to capitalize on the legions of international learners who view the American education system as the juicy apple towards future sustainability and want nothing more to learn English and the soft cultural skills required to catapult themselves onto the global playing field.

Break the unions. Districts complain that rising costs are due to state mandates that they just canÕ t skirt. While we respect the invaluable role that many educators play in shaping young minds, weÕ d like to think theyÕ re no more special than the panoply of professionals who also contribute to young development Ñ from scientists to athletes to Mom and Dad Ñ and we advocate for a

merit-based system, not a corrupt feeding trough. Break their ironclad grip and level the playing field. WeÕ re revoking your hall pass and placing you on academic suspension.

Corporate sponsorships. LetÕ s be realistic Ñ if youÕ re facing the decision to either close your doors and tuition out your students and accepting a bit of corporate lucre, weÕ d like to think youÕ re practical enough to make a reasonable decision. Educational facilities arenÕ t sacrosanct and should be allowed to open themselves up to a bidding process for corporate sponsorship. Naturally, this should be accompanied by strong safeguards to ensure the curriculum isnÕ t compromised and corporate influence be limited to somewhat innocuous areas like athletic team and meal sponsorship, contracts with tech firms and other win-win situations that rise all boats.

Paid classes. Taxes are a touchy issue and we all balk at increases in the levy. But that doesnÕ t mean that individual parents arenÕ t willing to fork over a bit more cash to ensure their kids receive an academic boost. If auxiliary classes are framed in a different lens Ñ not as a tax levy, but rather as a choice between a year Õ s worth of weekend trips to the mall and, say, classes that will give kids a leg up during the collegiate application process Ñ then weÕ d like to think that a total overhaul of how electives are conceptualized, implemented and executed could mark a new golden dawn in progressive education.

Cut more. WeÕ re going to be blunt, like the school nurse who slathers iodine over that skinned knee at recess: More can be slashed away. Get rid of supply budgets entirely, for example, and go after corporate sponsorships to supply your paper, your pens and the other materials you need to disseminate your information. Go paperless or see if manufacturers like International Paper are willing to donate materials for some good PR. Join forces with other districts for bulk purchasing. Outsource extras like plays and class trips to private volunteers or civic organizations. There are always creative solutions to insurmountable problems. And when the fate of an entire generation of young North Country leaders are at stake, we expect nothing less. Ñ

I guess I need a new way to deal with her chronic negativity without snapping or, even worse, joining in!

We have to applaud you for actually caring about this, as many people would start ignoring her, talking about her behind her back or possibly snap at her. WeÕ d like to start our advice with a quick exercise for you to help explore options, hers and yours.

• Does she come from a negative background?

• Does she have low self-confidence? Or little confidence in people around her?

•Has she recently been hurt deeply by someone she trusted?

•Do others join in with her negativity? If so, does this add to her sense of belonging?

•Listen closely, does your co-worker give subtle clues to her motivations?

If this gives you any insight, you may at least understand where it might be coming from. The longer she has responded that wayÉ the harder it may be to point her in a new, optimistic direction. In changing our own or someone elseÕ s behavior,

knowing something about the motivation of the negative behavior helps in the redirection.

It is our opinion that the tone and expectation of a workplace is to encourage people to leave their personal circumstances and emotions out of the work of the day. Even the longest suffering member of your organization will respond positively to a genuine compliment and it could be the counter-action that could begin to turn her pervasive attitude in a positive direction. A genuine compliment can and should be focused and meaningful.

Paying a compliment should reflect a moment you experienced first-hand. Let your negative co-worker know about an act you truly appreciated. You may not change this personÕ s outlook; however, you will change your own Ð YOU will not be dwelling in the negative. Someday, SHE may even join you in happiness.

Five Questions with...

Joshua Kretser

By Pete DeMola pete@denpubs.com

In this weekÕ s dispatch designed to harangue public figures with random phone calls, we reached out to Plattsburgh City Councilor Joshua Kretser to see what the Ward 6 rep has been up to since his inauguration on January 1.

What are you working on?

IÕ m working on collaborating with downtown business and property owners, community leaders and North Country residents to rebrand downtown Plattsburgh. I will work with these groups to devise a comprehensive plan which will transform downtown into the crown jewel of the Adirondack Coast. IÕ m also working with the Plattsburgh Rotary Club and the CVPH and CCC Foundations planning community events for this summer. And thatÕ s in addition to the number of interior and event design projects and stagings throughout the North Country.

You seem busy. Tell us one off-the-cuff idea for improving the city.

We need to strengthen the relationship between North Country residents and the students attending SUNY Plattsburgh and Clinton Community College. We all have so much to give and learn from one another.

Favorite place to grab a bite in Plattsburgh?

As a native, I love to grab a few Michigans from McSweeneyÕ s from time to time, but lately I have been obsessed with Cafe 73

by David Allen on US Avenue. This week, I had an amazing sandwich creation featuring jalepe–o jelly that was to die for!

WhatÕ s on your playlist?

[Laughs] Lady Gaga, Boston Baroque, Wax Tailor and the list goes on.

WhatÕ s your Sunday morning routine?

Laundry, brunch with the family and whatever adventures find me.

Local film buff refuses to “go digital”

By Shawn Ryan

shawn@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ For some people, advances in technology are not always for the better.

Local film aficionado Andy MacDougall, for one, is not a fan of computer generated imagery (CGI). For years MacDougall has been amassing a library of 16mm celluloid films to preserve, and show when possible. Ò I guess even when I wasnÕ t setting out to consciously archive film, I was still doing it. When I graduated from MAI and I started my first year at SUNY, that’s when I bought my first 16mm film,’he said. “It’s all about sustaining and preserving interest in the organic.Ó While he understands the rush to go digital from a business standpoint, MacDougall waxes nostalgic for the everything from the machinations behind a certain on-screen effect, to the rhyth-

mic hum of an old style film projector. He likens his affinity for celluloid film to music purists who prefer the scratch and pop of the needle on a vinyl record to modern digital music. Ò Maybe digital and the virtual world will not completely sweep over everything and there will remain pockets of appreciation for the old-style movies, and an appreciation for the physical effects will survive. ThatÕ s what IÕ m trying to do in my own little corner of the universe here,Ó he said.

MacDougall hopes to show his films at events monthly throughout the summer. One opportunity will be Friday, April 25, when he will be showing the 1964 sci-fi thriller “Crack in the World,Ó at the Newman Center in honor of Earth Week. The film, he says, portends the possible ecological effects produced by man tampering with the natural world, through things like hydrofracking.

Keep an eye on the North CountrymanÕ s and the BurghÕ s calendar of events for upcoming films. MacDougall can be contacted at 561-7521 or serious_61@yahoo.com.

Real Estate 101: Workshops aim to educate homeowners, prevent foreclosures

By Pete DeMola

pete@denpubs.com LAKE PLACID Ñ If phrases like periodic amortization, NINA, equity release and jumbo are alien to you, donÕ t worry Ñ youÕ re not alone and the Housing Assistance Program of Essex County (HAPEC) wants to help education both prospective and current homeowners with two upcoming workshops.

Managing your mortgage The first class, slated to be held on Tuesday, April 22 at the Lake Placid Public Library, is designed to help troubled homeowners make heads or tails of the bank loan that uses property or land as collateral and how to navigate the choppy waters that come with foreclosure proceedings. Ò Our goal is to work with people and banks to resolve delayed payment if theyÕ re behind,Ó said instructor Michelle Bashaw, a homeowner counselor with HAPEC, a Housing and Urban Development-certified counseling agency.

Bashaw said even if a case has been passed on to foreclosure attorneys, itÕ s not too late for mitigation. Many homeowners arenÕ t aware there are services that can help them, she said.

Homeowners who are not yet behind, but are having financial trouble that will affect their ability to make payments, can ask for help.

Banks cannot tell them to miss payments in order to be eligible for a workout option, she said. Nor can they foreclose without offering a chance to go to court for a settlement conference, another tip that isnÕ t common knowledge.

If the court happens to side with the bank and allows them to foreclose, the homeowner will have at least 30 days in the home to make other living arrangements. Ò The sooner people come to us with questions and problems, the better,Ó she said.

As Essex County moves forward with a tax auction on April 30 designed to auction off the properties seized for failure to pay property taxes since 2006 Ñ those units have leveled off at around 130 Ñ and as last month saw the lowest nation-

al foreclosure rate since the second quarter of 2007, Bashaw said foreclosure is a problem that continues to reverberate throughout the region and one that hasnÕ t subsided as the economy continues to right itself after the housing bubble popped in 2007. Ò IÕ m not seeing it come to an end,Ó she said. Ò More and more people are seeking help dealing with the summons and complaints that mark the legal beginning of the foreclosure process.Ó Bashaw said the legal wrangling can be a long and tedious process that is often overwhelming for homeowners who are not well-versed in legalese and bureaucratic procedures.

Common mistakes, she said, include the submission of incomplete packets that stall decisions and leave residents with lingering questions about their case.

HAPEC will request those same documents from the banks and will assist homeowners in exploring available loss mitigation options Ò IÕ ll stay with them through the entire application process and until the paperwork is final,” she said.

Monthly mortgage statements often fail to reflect what’s going on with their actual loan and the gap between bank and legal team can be frightening, she said.

If Bashaw could hammer only two points to homeowners, it would be to become intimate with your mortgage note (Ò Most people donÕ t know the difference between the note, which is the document that discusses the contract with the bank, and a mortgageÓ ) and when their payments are due, including the grace period. Ò People should know where to turn for help, and thatÕ s me.Ó To register for the class at the Lake Placid Public Library on Tuesday, April 22, send Michelle Bashaw an email at michelle@hapec.org or call 873-6888.

Homebuyer purchase program If you’re a tentative homeowner who is now petrified after getting a refresher course on everything that can go wrong after making the decision to purchase a home Ñ or someone who

would like to buy a home, but is low on capital Ñ you may be interested in HAPACÕ s sister workshop designed to help income eligible households locate and lock in a residence.

Organizer Penny Daniels said the program has helped close to 1,000 families find housing since the early-1990s, or about one family per month, with a combination of counseling, matching grants and funds they distribute to prospective homeowners who meet their criteria.

This weekÕ s workshop is slated for Wednesday, April 23 at their office in Clinton County. Ò Budgeting, savings and credit advice are the biggest tips we try to give people before buying a home,Ó said Daniels. Ò We donÕ t want people to get overextended with their mortgage payments.Ó Daniels said there are ample savings and grant programs Ñ like the First Home Club, for example Ñ that chip in funds to aspiring homeowners who make commitment to save money every month to make a purchase.

HAPECÕ s own Home Purchase Program assists with closing costs, principal reduction and repairs, services that board member Bill Johnston said fill the void left by struggling local governments that have neither the staff nor financial resources to offer solutions to housing problems. Ò This is where the regional organizations like ours really step up to the plate,Ó he said. Ò We really try to educate and educate the buyer,Ó said Daniels. Ò I believe weÕ re successful Ñ itÕ s a long day and we go through a lot of content.Ó Other bullet points that will be offered at WednesdayÕ s workshop include tips for managing money, how to obtain a mortgage, shopping for a home, working with realtors, navigating the inspection process and protecting your investment.

Daniels said the agency has quite a bit of capital they hope to distribute to prospective buyers before their late-summer deadline.

Qualified applicants should ideally have a steady income for at least 20 years, a credit score of at least 640 and enough fund balance in their monthly budget to afford mortgage payments. Ò If youÕ re ready to buy, weÕ re ready to explain who we are and the assistance we can give you,Ó she said.

TO PREPARE: Render down shallots in butter. Combine remaining ingredients, and crust fresh salmon fillet. Place under broiler until salmon is cooked half way through. Remove, coat liberally with pesto and return to broiler.

Cook until meat is opaque and flakes when tested with a fork. Pesto should be slightly browned.

PERU Ñ PasqualeÕ s head chef Jerry Ô JJÕ Johnson has worked in restaurants his whole life, working his way up from dishwasher to the top job at the busy Peru eatery.

The Peru native started off working at the Valcour Lodge as dishwasher. By the time he was 21, we was head chef at Windows on the Bay. After a stint with the gourmet food delivery

company Home Bistro, be opened the former Crickets restaurant in Peru, where we worked for several years.

Along the way, he hooked up with David Hamilton, who has now worked as his Sous Chef for the past 15 years, in various restaurants.

But after over 20 years in the rear of the house, Johnson is quick to credit the accompanying staff for a restaurantÕ s success. Ò ItÕ s not how good the chef is, itÕ s how good the people around you are,Ó he said.

Johnson and Hamilton build their menu around American style Ô comfort foods.Õ They donÕ t cook from recipes, and typically come up with entree and appetizer ideas on their own.

Johnson especially likes to experiment with his soups, which he says he is particularly known for. Ò ItÕ s about a love of cooking. I get an absolute rush from it,Ó he said.

Fulbright Chair to speak at SUNY

By Teah Dowling

denpubs@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ Ò The Standardization of Time in the Quebec-New York Border Region, 1883-1974,” will be presented by Dr. Jarett Rudy at SUNY Plattsburgh April 22.

Rudy will be delivering the Distinguished Fulbright Chair in Quebec Studies Address at 2 p.m. in the Krinovitz Recital Hall in Hawkins Hall. His presentation will be followed by a reception at the Institute on Quebec Studies located 133 Court St. in Plattsburgh.

Rudy has been working on this project for two months, gaining his research from newspaper archives and online search engines, but heÕ s been studying time-telling for eight years starting all the way back in 1883 when standardized time started. Ò People could no longer look into the sky, look at the sun or stars and decide time,Ó Rudy said. Ò Instead, time became a convention or a notion that was set out by train or railway companies.Ó As a result, the continent divided up into five different time zones by 15 degrees each, and science and technology took over time instead of God or nature. Rudy said he wanted to see how this played out in a place like Quebec where its center was the Catholic Church.

During World War I in the year 1918, daylight savings time started as a war measure, stating that it would be more efficient.

After years of debating, it became accepted by Plattsburgh in 1930. Later on in 1940, the United States and Canada adopted this nationally, and in 1974, the United States adopted daylight savings time as a result of an oil crisis.

Rudy has been conducting this research at SUNY Plattsburgh since early February, along with speaking to various classes and groups and teaching an online course at McGill University. All of this was made possible through the Core Fulbright Visiting Scholar Program.

Rudy applied and wrote a research proposal last summer to be part of the Fulbright Program. Winning the competition, he chose to go to SUNY Plattsburgh because it had a Fulbright Program, and it was one of the only schools in the U.S. that had a Quebec studies program. Ò I got really interested in Plattsburgh history and the history of Clinton County, Franklin County and the border region,Ó Rudy said. Ò I think thereÕ s a lot history to write in this area, and I wanted to get to know the people who were working on Quebec there.Ó Along with studying time, Rudy is an associate professor in the Department of History and Classical Studies at McGill University, where he teaches Quebec and Canadian History. He holds a MasterÕ s degree in history from the University of Ottawa and a Ph.D. in history from McGill University.

Besides being an associate professor, Rudy is the author of Ò The Freedom to Smoke: Tobacco Consumption and Identity,Ó a

book examining gender and other key issues related to smoking in Montreal from mass cigarette production in 1888 to the first studies linking cigarettes to lung cancer in 1950.

Also, Rudy wrote several articles in journals such as the Journal of the Canadian Historical Association, Canadian Historical Review, Histoire Sociale/Social History, Revue dÕ histoire de lÕ AmŽ rique fran• aise and Globe: Revenue International dÕ etudes QuŽ bŽ coise.

From his article, “Do You Have the Time? Modernity, Democracy, and the Beginnings of Daylight Savings Time in MontrŽ al, 1907-1928,” he became a recipient of the 2012 Canadian Historical Review Article of the Year.

Even though heÕ s written many articles in regards to Canada, right now he is focused on his research in Plattsburgh, receiving help from the various members from the Institute on Quebec Studies. Ò They pointed me in very good directions and showed me great resources,Ó Rudy said. Ò They were so helpful.Ó After his presentation, he hopes to continue his research until the end of May. On May 22, his residence at the Institute of Quebec Studies will come to an end, and he is hoping that he can bring his knowledge to the community. Ò With this presentation, I can add new information to the way people understand this region,Ó Rudy said. Ò I can help us better understand the time laws.Ó For more information, contact Cherice Granger, executive administrative coordinator, Center for the Study of Canada and Institute on Quebec Studies, at 518-564-2384 or Cherice.Granger@ plattsburgh.edu. Ò I hope I can express my enthusiasm for the history of Plattsburgh and the border region,Ó Rudy said.
