stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — She landed a job maintaining financial records and banking transactions at Garvey Hyundai North in Plattsburgh.

Then, the 41-year-old employed at least six schemes to steal roughly $1.4 million in cash and cars with the help of two men, one of whom the Altona woman was having an affair with.

Julie Perry used the embezzled money to take trips to Chicago and buy pricey meals, clothing, salon visits, massages and more.

Now, she’ll spend five to 15 years in state prison, recently sentenced after her Aug. 2 guilty plea to second-

People walk for faith, and for a cause

The weekly column of the Lumber Jills returns.

By Stephen Bartlett stephen@denpubs.com PERU — When we walk by faith, it is in God’s grace, said Christa Covel-Reyell.

Today, many people live for wealth and praise, despite faith’s calling to live life simply.

“Today, we will walk together with members of our community to remember the faith of our Christian ancestors who walked before us,” said Covel-Reyell, speaking before the St. Augustine’s and St. Patrick’s Parish and the Peru Community Church sixth annual Walk of Faith in Peru. “Celebrating faith many years ago was a great sacrifice. Many times, to attend services Christians had to walk great distances.”

Those gathered took the walk one step further, turning the occasion into a fundraising effort for the North Country Mission of Hope and The Jamaica Project.

Cellular sales moving up

By Stephen Bartlett

stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — A cellular sale can take up to an hour.

Sitting down is essential.

That’s just one of several reasons Verizon employees are eager to move into their new location in the Champlain Centre Mall.

“We will gain credibility with this move,” said Sean Petry, Store Lead for Verizon Wireless retailer Cellular Sales.

Champlain Centre Mall, operated by Pyramid Management Group, LLC, announced the expansion of Verizon Wireless retailer Cellular Sales from its kiosk near the food court to a full store location between Hallmark and Bath & Body Works.

explained Petry, who has been with Verizon for more than a year.

As part of the company’s approach to providing full-service customer-focused operations, the expanded Verizon Wireless location will offer a larger selection of all major brands of wireless products and hardware. The new products will include the new iPhone 5.

The store features an open floor plan concept that is designed to streamline the sales process and enhance the customer experience.

“We are really going to have an opportunity to make more of an impression on the community,” said Hayley Hicks, Senior Store Lead.

She has worked for the company for one year, and said each day is a challenge she embraces.

Pleasing customers is a team effort, Hicks said.

Petry is eager for the store to grow, saying one of the biggest areas of concentration is new line growth and renewals.

He and Hicks said cusOur tomers will appreciate having space to move around in.

Plattsburgh mayor kicks off budget process

By Stephen Bartlett

stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — This year ’s mayor ’s budget was one of the most challenging Donald Kasprzak has faced.

Hurdles included soaring salary, retirement and health care costs, as well as the new tax cap and costly unfunded mandates.

And according to Kasprzak, it’s only going to get worse.

Kasprzak’s budget proposal carried a 1.93 percent tax levy increase.

The tax rate per $1,000 of assessed property value would remain at $10.40.

Under the 2013 Mayor ’s budget water, sewer and garbage

rates will continue at their current levels.

The obligation for pension payments is $3.4 million, compared to $1.2 million in 2009 and only $17,700 in 2000.

“These obligations are simply unsustainable and unaffordable and will be the driving force for future tax and utility rate increases,” Kasprzak said.

Health-care costs are projected to rise roughly 6.5 percent to about $6.7 million.

Kasprzak would utilize about $2 million in fund balance to deal with rising costs.

“We have worked very diligently since 2007 in bidding city services, reduce spending, seeking more revenue and governing conservatively, which resulted in a fund balance to address the rising costs and stabilize tax and utility rates,” Kasprzak said. “Unfortunately, these cost factors, coupled with the lack of meaningful reform change in Albany, are

now affecting our course of business.”

Kasprzak adjusted and reduced the capital budget due to long term debt concerns to taxpayers.

But he said future budgets beginning in 2014 will include substantial tax and utility increases due to rising costs.

“I appreciate the efforts by Budget Officer Jim Calnon, City Chamberlain Richard Marks and his staff, and the cooperating Department heads throughout this budget process,” Kasprzak said. “We believe this is a sound budget despite the financial challenges we continue to deal with.

“Future budgets, however, will be the most difficult yet for the City of Plattsburgh and will result in possible reductions in service and personnel.”

The Common Council has until mid-January to finalize the budget.

Partnership urges youth to make healthy choices

By Stephen Bartlett

stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — It’s about making better lifestyle choices, says Jessica Mathews.

It’s about a community empowered by youth, and not viewing them as a deterrent.

Jessica Mathews in her office on Plattsburgh State’s campus.

She wants youth to feel they have a place in the community.

But most importantly, the coordinator for the Plattsburgh Campus and Community Partnership wants youth to make healthy choices.

“We are working to provide education to the youth of the city, as well as parents and community members.”

As coordinator for the Plattsburgh Campus and Community Partnership, Mathews works with community organizations to help reduce drug use and drinking among young people.

The federally funded program in its 9th year started with $125,000 and a vision of drug prevention for youth 18 and under.

“Quality of life are a lot of the issues we deal with,” Mathews said.

The first five-year grant that came through the Office of National Drug Control Policy totaled $625,000 with the City of Plattsburgh the target.

Mathews works with more than 30 different organizations and individuals, including law enforcement, schools, media, downtown businesses and the District Attorney’s Office.

“We have six or seven subcommittees,” Mathews said.

Representatives include parents, youth, businesses, media, schools, Clinton County Youth Bureau, law Photo by Stephen Bartlett enforcement, religious, civic

and fraternal organizations, health-care agencies, and groups that deal with substance abuse.

“It is not a one-person show,” Mathews said. “We all work together toward a common goal.”

The Plattsburgh Campus and Community Partnership’s mission is to empower the community to make healthy lifestyle choices through collaborative planning. This is done by fostering respectful, responsible and productive citizens and by preventing alcohol, tobacco and other drug use and related health and behavior problems.

“One of the things we focus on is alcohol education, because underage drinking is an issue no matter where you go in the United States,” Mathews said. “And then of course there definitely is the issue of synthetic and prescription drugs.”

One effort has middle school students working on media advocacy and analyzing advertisements that promote alcohol.

Another group brings parents and their children together for education and discussions.

Some people are mailing information to be displayed in doctor and health-care offices.

Yet another partnership promotes improved relationships between students and the community around them.

Mathews said one effort works on overcoming stigma, so that, for example, students realize not all their peers are drinking and there are other activities available on a Friday night.

Mathews, who studied education in college and worked for Upward Bound, believes the efforts are working.

“I think we are making a change,” she said. “This is not just a half-hearted effort.”

Our sixty plus employees and this publishing company would not exist without their generous support of our efforts to gather and distribute your community news and events.

Jobs lives on through the innovations he leaves behind

T

tion of news forever, and those of us in the newspaper industry are acutely aware of Jobs’ influence.

Before Jobs and Apple computer, typesetting was accomplished by phototypesetters, hulking machines that cost $50,000 to $125,000 and suffered frequent breakdowns — requiring repairs that were likely to cost more than the purchase-price of a high-end desktop computer.

Reporters used typewriters to compose their articles, often typing them up several times in their entirety for a final draft.

When Denton Publications armed their employees with Apple computers — we were “early adopters” — our reporters and editors gained speed and creativity, as well as pursuing higher standards in our work. Those costly and unreliable phototypesetters were scrapped.

The Apple computers gave us remarkable capability to readily compete with the corporate giants in getting vital news out to the public on a timely basis.

Jobs’ innovation of a graphical interface, combined with the Internet a decade or so later, prompted a seismic shift in publishing, as people began obtaining news faster and more conveniently via the Internet.

A new generation has increasingly adopted this digital conduit as more convenient and satisfying.

We at Denton Publications embraced this trend early on — about a decade ago — delivering community news on an array of websites, when many other newspapers were depending solely on newsprint. Since then, we have continued our commitment to digital news delivery by continually enhancing our online offerings.

Also, we have the most advanced digital pre-press composition equipment that can deliver the highest-fidelity printed products — also an indirect result of Jobs’ remarkable vision.

We at Denton Publications are thankful for Steve Jobs’ incredible talent and imagination.

Although he has passed on, his remarkable contributions to society — which are bringing us all closer together — live on through the innovations he left behind.

North Countryman Editorial hursday Oct. 5, when computers were fired up around the globe, many thousands of them began showing a slide show of black-and-white images of Apple Computer founder, the late Steve Jobs.

This compelling memorial presentation — depicting highlights of his career on the oneyear anniversary of his untimely death — transfixed many, including employees at Denton Publications.

Jobs has indeed exerted a remarkable influence in all of our lives. His innovations have granted us all incredible power, a connectedness and access that we couldn’t have imagined just decades ago.

Plenty has been said about how he made music personal — and transformed the music industry — with the iPod, or how he launched a new era of creativity in film and television animation through his work at Pixar.

But his crowning achievement was perhaps the iPhone — a truly revolutionary device.

Combining a cell phone with an Internet communicator — and the ability for this remarkable, device to run apps — has changed the world forever.

Whether it’s the ability to use a handheld device to conduct instant financial transactions on-the-go, shooting and editing videos, or remotely controlling your home’s environment, it can all be done now, on-the-go, from anywhere on the globe on a handheld device.

Its potential uses are virtually unlimited.

Many of us at Denton’s depend on the device so we can best accomplish our daily work in a demanding industry.

Steve Jobs was the visionary that made it all happen — It has been said that Jobs knew what we all wanted and needed before we could even imagine it.

But all the recent attention on this latest device shouldn’t overshadow Jobs’ work in the late 1970s and early 1980s that was no less revolutionary — merging graphics with digital information.

Before Jobs’ innovations in this regard, computers only displayed little 1/8-inch-high numbers and letters on monochrome monitors.

Jobs’ commitment to personal computers’ graphical interface, mouse and WYSIWYG, or “What You See Is What You Get,” changed all our lives forever. Many of you can surely remember the early Internet, when only numbers and letters were transmitted from computer to a remote machine.

These developments changed dissemina-

The U.S. debt remains our darkest cloud

I

n the next month as the election nears we’ll continue to hear a great deal about the U.S. debt now over $16 trillion and climbing.

While the nation faces many issues nothing is more serious to our long term stability as a sovereign nation than the massive debt we’ve accumulated over the past decade.

You may have heard some of these analogies before but getting a true understanding of the sheer size and scope of this debt will, I hope, cause us each to recognize why this issue must be addressed and why we absolutely must begin reversing the spending habits of this nation. If you spent one million dollars a day since the day Jesus was born, 2,012 years ago you would not have spent one trillion dollars but, instead, only about $750 billion dollars. If that’s not personal enough for you, consider this, based on the current U.S. population, every U.S. citizen — man, woman and child — now owes just under $50,000 each to pay for the debt we’ve racked up over the past few years.

In 2011 the World Bank estimated that the Gross World Product, that is the value of the products world-wide would be valued at approximately $80.7 trillion dollars. In the United States the Gross National Product is valued at approximately $15.2 trillion dollars. Our debt now exceeds the total one year production of the entire country. The U.S. government is the world’s biggest client, spending more money — our money — than any other entity in the world.

The U.S. government spends one million dollars every eight second and currently borrows approximately 40 perceny of the money it spends.

In the last year alone our debt rose by $1.2 trillion. In comparison the world’s tenth largest economy is our neighbor to the north, Canada.

Their economy is $1.7 trillion. Our neighbor to the south, Mexico, the fourteenth largest economy, is just slightly smaller then our 2011 debt. In fact our debt has now grown so large that there isn’t enough cash in the world to cover the debt so the federal government has become the major purchaser of the debt financing it by printing more than $1.6 trillion.

I don’t know about you but those numbers should be scaring the day lights out of us all. But perhaps we’ve all just become so accustomed to borrowing money that as long as the country can continue to borrow we assume that there must not be a problem. Oh sure we hear about the debt and the reduction in the credit rating but does it really hit home or as they say is ignorance bliss. As citizens of this country we are all co-signers and ultimately guarantors of this debt that’s been accumulating by Republicans and Democrats alike — we all own a piece of this.

Like any household the more money you owe the more expensive it becomes to borrow money.

At some point regardless of how much interest you are willing to pay, lenders won’t put more of their money at risk knowing you are so far in

the hole they’ll never see their money again. When you are spending 40 percent more money than you bring home, how long do you think it will take beDan Alexander fore someone comes Thoughts from Behind the Pressline knocking on the door?

The biggest difference between personal finance and the U.S. government is the government’s ability to print more cash. As long as our lenders, the other countries around the world, continue to turn a blind eye to this practice we can get away with it, but just as the government looks unfavorably on counterfeiters, so do the other nations of the world. Like any large debtor once it becomes apparent we have no intent or ability to change our spending ways, and pay off this debt our dollar will be rendered as having no value and other assets will be claimed in place of the cash to cover the debt.

The candidates will both talk about their plans to reduce spending and tackle the debt.

Until the American public is willing to step up and demand that debt reduction is priority number one, our national leaders will value election and reelection, more than being the disciplined leaders who tell us the hard, cold facts we would rather not hear nor deal with. Think about your newborn child or grandchild who perhaps was just born owing $50,000, upon birth because we lacked the resolve to address this growing debt.

Democrats want to increase taxes to the rich.

Republicans want to see the economy improved so more people can help carry the tax load. We must be willing to face the truth. It will take every man, woman and child to step up and accept their share of this debt. Rich, middle income or poor, we must all accept responsibility.

There can be no more passing the buck, the blame or failure to accept these facts. If we fail to recognize this crisis, the interest on the debt alone, estimated at over $400 billion annually, will outpace our efforts to reduce the principle debt.

So as you watch and listen to the upcoming debates and the candidates talk about their plans to be fiscally responsible by cutting costs and reducing the debt with plans in the billions spread out over many years so as to sound good today but placing the true impact long after they have left office, be mindful. I hope you can put your arms around the magnitude of our debt and how those plans may pale in comparison to the true crisis we face and the tremendous burden we are placing on future generations.

North Countryman - 5

Shouldn’t it be about providing what is fair and equitable?

O

bligations in the areas of health care, pensions and salaries are strangling employers in areas where employees work under a union, and are resulting in fewer services, more expensive services and tax increases.

This is far from isolated, with such cries heard throughout the state and the nation.

As a result, taxpayers are turning up and speaking out against public employees, decrying the money they must fork over to cover benefits they increasingly no longer enjoy.

Is the answer to this problem to pull public employees into the pit private sector workers are trapped in?

In the private sector, in some cases, not all, raises were insignificant well before The Great Recession knocked the wind out of the nation and left it on the ground, scrambling for a breath and footing.

In the private sector, pensions seem to have largely become a thing of the past, replaced by 401K’s. The 401K works great un-

til a worker has reached or even surpassed retirement age and it is time to step down and follow those carefully made plans that possibly include relaxing with the spouse near the fire, traveling the world, etc., and then the stock market crashes and that worker is forced to continue working, well beyond what plans A, B and C called for.

I remember hearing such a worker say, “My 401K took such a hit I’m going to have to work another 10 years.”

That hardly seems fair.

Health care costs are indeed soaring and are beyond the reach of some private sector employers, while others who can afford them often are forced to offer plans that are too costly for employees to afford.

That doesn’t seem fair.

Shouldn’t hard-working Americans be able to count on having adequate health care for their families, health care that doesn’t force them into debt when they use it? Shouldn’t they at least have some sort of health care?

I can understand the frustration

Stephen Bartlett

From the Editor’s Desk by those in the private sector.

Then, they see their taxes go up so public employees who sometimes earn more than them can enjoy decent raises and affordable heath care.

The response by many is to call for unionized employees to be pulled down to their level.

That sort of mirrors the mentality of dysfunctional individuals who are cruel to others to feel better about themselves. But to be

fair, this is their lives, and they are not making it, or are barely making it, and they have bills to pay and food to put on the table.

Anyone would likely be angry in such a situation.

But shouldn’t it all be about doing what is right by human beings and ensuring all hard-working Americans enjoy a livable wage, and decent salary increases and adequate health care and retirements that are somewhat predictable?

Well, to be fair there, it is not about any of that for the average private sector employer.

It is not about fair, it is about numbers.

It is about making those numbers work so the business survives and the employees working there take home a paycheck.

I know and have known many business owners and they want to pay their employees generously and they want to provide pensions and they want to offer adequate health care, and while some are able to, many are restrained by the numbers that would result in the business going under if

those numbers were ignored.

The public sector is in the same mess, only it has contracts it must obey, so the result is fewer or more expensive services and higher taxes.

For the private sector, ignoring the numbers and simply providing what an employer believes an employee should receive would often mean no more business and no more jobs.

That doesn’t seem like it would work for anyone.

So perhaps when people come out to decry higher taxes, everyone on both sides should instead get together and discuss what is broken.

Does it make sense to support a system that is increasingly failing to work for most Americans?

Are there ways to improve upon that system so it does work for everyone?

I don’t know, but those are the discussions I would have, the ones that ultimately might work out better for everyone involved.

Our life coaches, Style and Substance: On giving advice Dear Style & Substance: Since you are experts in the advice business I thought you would have the answer to my question. Why do people ask me for my advice and then not take it? I am someone who naturally listens to people’s problems and am always asked for advice. I try to be thoughtful and diplomatic when giving it. Really, why bother asking if you don’t want to hear the truth. Do you ever get frustrated when people don’t listen?

We love your question and it reminds us that there are definitely givers, getters and sharers of advice out there! You must be a compassionate person, along with a good listener. We have found that many people just want to give voice to their problems and they are simply seeking someone who will listen and validate their feelings.

One key in giving advice, is to let go of your expectation of that person’s response. Advice is a possibility, not an absolute. The advice seeker may not take your advice, that does not mean she or he did not respect your opinion, it only means she or he took a different path to resolution.

We all have choices in life and you are just articulating options that they might take. We find this quote to be quite helpful: “The true secret of giving advice is, after you have honestly given it, to be perfectly indifferent whether it is taken or not, and never persist in trying to set people right” – Hannah Whitall Smith Since the definition of advice is “an opinion or recommendation offered as a guide to action”, you expect action. There is a lot of risk in altering a life path; and when a person seems immobile in their action-response, it doesn’t mean that his/her emotional/mental-response is not hard at work. Leaving the judgment/action out of your hands, means that you are really wanting what is best for your

friend.

Advice is requested because somebody close to us has a need; and anytime there is a need there is vulnerability. People will ask your advice because they respect you and your opinion and experiences, and most importantly, because there is trust. The trust somebody places in another when asking advice is foundational to the relationship. Because of this vulnerability, the advice giver must proceed with the intention of truthfulness and compassion.

Some great general rules of thumb in giving advice are: •Be an active listener, gather and clarify all of the facts; be prepared to hear more as the conversation unfolds.

•Put yourself in the other’s position, you make act differently in your own situations, but this takes the seeker’s personal life and unique history into account.

•What might the long term and short term consequences be if another takes or leaves your advice? Maybe discuss this as part of your offering. This could also be an exercise in pros and cons, which is a helpful technique for helping yourself or others in the future.

•Have empathy, this means that you genuinely care about your friends’ well- being and leaves the decisions up to the individual.

•Brainstorm solutions - the seeker then gains control over his/her possible choices. The advice seeker becomes an active participant in the process. It also generates lots of possible solutions and it may bring clarity and resolution.

•Be honest!

•Set a good example by living your life as authentically as you speak.

When you become highly frustrated with those who seem to always have the same problems, but never seem to make any

A better approach may be preparing kind words to point out what you consider the obvious. This is where tact and being Michele Armani and Sally Meisenheimer comfortable with your own personal approach become key.

Additionally, you may sometimes get in the trap of feeling like you need to give advice when someone is expressing sadness, loss, frustration or dismay, and this is a choice you can make…to simply just listen.

One of our favorite pieces of writing, offers depth to issues of friendship, compassion and advice, and comes from Psalm 85: Justice and Peace shall kiss, Truth shall spring out of the earth.

Kindness and Truth shall meet, Justice shall look down from the heavens."

GUESTVIEWPOINT From the former president and co-captain of the Lumber Jills

I

t is hard to believe the Lumber Jills are getting ready to play the last bout of their first full season. I never expected how much roller derby would impact my life since its inception in 2010. At first, a group of friends and I would drive to Vermont to watch the Green Mountain Derby Dames play roller derby at the Champlain Expo Center. We were inspired by these women and knew soon after that we needed to make a home for roller derby in Plattsburgh.

The first year I was voted president and co-captain of the North Country Lumber Jills. I was honored to have been chosen to lead our team. In the beginning we had our ups and downs. We had women who could not commit to the demanding practice schedule, suffered broken bones and ultimately needed to find a home in which to practice and compete. In time, the broken bones healed, skaters rearranged their schedules and the Plattsburgh Recreation Center became our home.

During that first year as president I learned a lot about hard work, communication, being an athlete and my personal limits. A typical day would start with an eight hour shift at my day job, then spending at least two hours focusing on the business end of the team and on certain days end with a two hour practice. During the first year I was

able to build family with the skaters, referees and volunteers. As president I felt that my life revolved around roller derby and the success of the organization.

The following year I stepped down from the presidency and took a break from roller derby. This break helped me reprioritize my life and reconnect with family, friends, and my personal projects. After several months, I knew it was time to return. During my time away the team had progressed by leaps and bounds. The Lumber Jills began to compete publicly, built a good name in our community as well as building a name in the derby community.

Currently I am a skater and member of the advertising committee. You can often find me with a stack of fliers and a roll of tape promoting the upcoming bout. Roller derby has afforded me the ability to get into the best shape of my life, taught me more about myself than I would have ever imagined all while doing something that I enjoy. The community of Plattsburgh and our amazing fans have made all of this possible and I could not be more thankful for their support.

Homicide suspect faces charges in Florida

By Stephen Bartlett

stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — A murder suspect who passed through Mooers and Plattsburgh in mid-September recently appeared in U.S. court.

The appearance came after Justin Bresaw, 35, was arrested in Florida after spending nearly a month trying to evade capture for charges stemming from a triple homicide in Quebec.

He faces several charges in Florida, and it is unclear when he will be extradited to Canada.

Bresaw went on the run after police sought him in connection with a house fire in Amos, Que. On Sept. 17, law enforcement found three bodies in the burned-out house where Bresaw rented a room in the town north of Montreal.

He faces three counts of first-degree murder and likely fled in a stolen blue 2001 Honda Civic, which police located on Sept. 20 in Havelock, Quebec, which is located roughly 6 miles north of the Cannon’s Corners port of entry in the Town of Mooers.

Law enforcement confirmed that Bresaw was spotted in

Mooers and Plattsburgh on Sept. 17 but then left the area.

He was arrested in Florida this past Sunday.

Police there were unaware of Bresaw’s identity when at around 1:30 a.m. they approached a man spotted using a laptop behind a small church in Tallahassee.

He told officers his name was “John Colman.” When Police decided to run an identity check, Bresaw attempted to run, grabbing at an officer ’s weapon and causing the injury of at least one officer.

Bresaw then fled, but three hours later, with the assistance of a helicopter and K9 unit, officers in the Tallahassee Police Department arrested Bresaw.

Police didn’t learn Bresaw’s true identity until after he was apprehended.

The charges Bresaw faces in Florida include burglary, battery of a law enforcement officer and resisting arrest.

He appeared in U.S. court this week to face those charges.

Bresaw was given $2,500 bail on the U.S. charges and ordered to remain in the custody of a U.S. Marshal, who will transport him from Florida to Canada.

The Florida charges could slow the extradition process to Quebec, where he faces three counts of first-degree murder.

Former Plattsburgh State student charged with arson

By Stephen Bartlett

stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Matthew A. Fox allegedly set fire to a dryer in Wilson Hall, the residence hall in which he resides at Plattsburgh State.

Now, the 18-year-old freshman faces arson charges and is no longer a student at the university.

Students smelled what they thought was burning food in Wilson Hall a little after 3 a.m. on Sept.

28.

Smoke detectors in the basement and first floor went off, and by 3:30 a.m. the Plattsburgh City Fire Department was called to Plattsburgh State after someone activated a fire alarm in the building.

Wilson Hall, the college’s largest residence hall, was being evacuated when rescuers arrived.

Firefighters discovered a fire in a laundry room

in the basement.

They put out the fire and ventilated smoke from the building.

No one was injured.

An investigation determined that the fire was a not a result of mechanical failure but was intentionally set.

Upon further investigation, which included reviewing security camera footage, arson was determined.

Fox was taken into custody and charged with

criminal mischief, a felony, and fifth-degree arson, criminal mischief and reckless endangerment, all misdemeanors.

Although the criminal case has not yet concluded, the university can expel a student who is deemed a potential threat to him or herself or others. That status could change upon conclusion of the criminal proceeding.

Anyone with further information should contact University Police at 564-2022.

Clinton Community College a leader in wind energy training

By Stephen Bartlett

stephen@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH – Clinton Community College is a national leader in wind energy training.

That is a giant leap for a program that was only a concept in 2008.

“We are providing an important training program,” said CCC President John Jablonski.

The program took another leap forward recently when it received $400,000 in state-of-the-art training equipment for its Wind Energy program from General Electric and additional support from the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) that brings NYSERDA funding to a total of more than $600,000 over the past few years.

“Clinton Community College’s Wind Energy Program is terribly important,” said Francis Murray Jr., President and CEO, NYSERDA. “We need a highly trained workforce.”

The equipment and funding are part of an ongoing partnership between CCC, GE and NYSERDA. GE’s donation includes a 1.5 megawatt generator and gearbox valued at roughly $400,000. NYSERDA’s most recent funding totals more than $280,000 in federal stimulus funds for equipment purchased during 2012.

“We are thrilled that our Wind Energy Program continues to draw attention from leaders in the industry,” Jablonski said.

“The GE donation and NYSERDA funding ensure that our students will be well prepared to join the workforce in this growing industry.”

Dan Lance of GE said CCC’s students are already well prepared.

In fact, when he travels to Brazil he will hold the community college’s program up as “Best Practice.”

“I like this program here.”

Murray said New York state is on the path to economic resurgence but will only be successful through partnerships, specifically ones that involve academia and workforce training. CCC

is a model of partnerships between government, the private sector and academia, he said.

NYSERDA provided more than $275,000 in 2008 to help establish the Wind Energy program, putting CCC on the map as a national leader in large wind systems training. In 2011, NYSERDA provided an additional $80,000 to support the program.

“NYSERDA is proud to support Clinton Community College’s training program for large wind systems, which have become an ever-increasing clean energy resource in the North Country,” Murray said. “Under Gov. Cuomo’s leadership, New York state continues to diversify and increase the use of renewable energy thereby stimulating job growth in the clean energy industry and lessening the state’s dependence on fossil fuels.”

“For the past several years, Clinton Community College has been leading the way in Wind Energy and Turbine Technology training in New York,” Jablonski said. “With the addition of this new classroom equipment we take another giant leap forward.”

Cut costs on your next home improvement project With the economy still on the mend, homeowners must monitor their spending carefully. Such frugality is necessary across the board, even when it comes to home improvement.

While it’s important not to cut too many corners when it comes to home improvement projects, there are ways homeowners can save money without sacrificing safety and quality. * Scale things down. A full-scale kitchen remodel might be a dream project, but homeowners wary of committing too much money to a project might want to consider a smaller scale project. For example, instead of revamping the entire kitchen, address a single part of the kitchen, such as replacing vinyl flooring or refacing the cabinets. Such projects don’t require the financial commitment of a full-scale remodel but can give the kitchen a whole new look. * Chip in. Many home improvement projects are best left to the professionals. However, much of the cost of such projects goes toward labor, including preparation before the project and cleanup once it’s finished. When interviewing contractors, ask if there is any prep work you can do to reduce labor costs and if there’s a way to handle cleanup yourself. Cleanup might be somewhat tricky, as certain materials might need to be disposed of in accordance to local laws. But prep work might be easily handled by homeowners and garner substantial savings.

North Countryman - 9

* Shop around. In the current market, homeowners looking to make improvements must recognize the market benefits them. Shop around for a contractor and get some competitive offers. While it’s not always best to choose the contractor who submits the lowest estimate, the nature of the current market suggests all contractors should submit competitive offers and be flexible. Flexibility might come with a few conditions, such as more time to complete the project, but those conditions might be worth it if it means saving money.

“The mission has grown over the past 15 years, and the only way to support the very poor is through support from the community,” said Treasurer Kathy Eppler. “It doesn’t matter the size. What matters is the help we give to those in need.

sorship of schools, health care and HIV testing for children in orphanages.”

The Jamaica Project began after a worker from Jamaica fell from a ladder while harvesting apples in Peru. The injury left him a paraplegic for life.

“We decided to help his family medically,” said Pete Lake of the Jamaica Project.

The mission started in 1999 when a group of people from Peru traveled to Jamaica to serve the poor through house building and medical and dental clinic staffing, also serving schools and orphanages.

Peru Community Church partnered with the Ridgemount United Church in Mandeville, Jamaica for the project. The trip occurs each January and also includes provides children with supplies and clothing.

“Each year, they identify a family and their needs and we help them and build them a modest house,” Lake said. “For us it is kind of like a shed, but for them it is a home.”

Volunteers for both efforts must raise money for the trip as well as to cover the costs of assisting the individuals in need.

“This walk is a wonderful sharing of resources

for a valuable cause,” said Harriet Burrell, organizer for The Jamaica Project.

The Walk of Faith started in 2007 as a way to remember how the older generation once walked to church.

Besides the walk, the event included music and food.

“It is important to come together as a faith community,” Covel-Reyell said. “We both have common interests in supporting the community and serving God.” She told those present that everyone is on a different faith journey, never knowing where “our faith will bring us.”

In busy and chaotic lives, she said, it is easy to forget faith.

“We often wonder how we will be at peace with ourselves,” Covel-Reyell said. “Today let us try to separate ourselves from this anxiety and trust in God…” To learn more about the Jamaica Project call: (518)643-8641.

degree larceny.

Clinton County Court Judge Patrick McGill further ordered her to pay full restitution of more than $1.4 million and a $5,000 fine, as well as a DNA sample fee.

Perry illegally procured vehicles and altered bookkeeping to keep cash for herself from March 2005 through December 2010.

The theft nearly closed the Tom Miller Road dealership, with the Garvey family forced to turn to the $850,000 saved for retirement to prevent the business from going under.

Assistant District Attorney Tim Blatchley prosecuted the case and said Perry was unremorseful and did not make any attempt to repay Garvey.

The theft began almost immediately after she was hired.

Perry said she was sorry to Sean Garvey and the employees, as well as the community.

Perry simply stole the money and cars because it made her life easier, employing six separate schemes, including creating fake bank and deposit slips and purchasing $121,000 worth of cars for herself and family, and depositing cash that was supposed to be used as down payments for vehicles.

Perry used some of the money on herself, though she did not act alone.

Perry was having an affair with Richard Bashant, 36, of Queensbury, who was a salesman at ACR Motors.

ACR Motors is owned by Charles Allen, 42, of Saratoga Springs.

This past August, Allen pleaded guilty to helping Perry illegally obtain 24 cars worth $136,150. He and Bashant also altered documents to defraud Garvey.

After illegally obtaining the vehicles, the trio sold them for profit to an auto-action firm.

This past September, Bashant was sentenced to one year in County Jail.

That sentence was conditionally discharged after he made a restitution payment of $19,733 and completed community service.

Allen appears in court on Dec. 4.
