PLATTSBURGH — There’s a new, early addition for one Essex County family.

The first baby born at CVPH Medical Center in 2011 was delivered in the early afternoon hours of Monday, Jan. 3. Logan John Pulsifer was born to firsttime parents Briana and Jesse Pulsifer of Essex at 1:54 p.m., weighing 6.3 pounds and measuring 18 inches long.

Logan was the first child in their families, to their knowledge, to receive the honor of being the first child born in any New Year at a hospital. The occasion was even more special because Logan wasn’t expected for almost another three weeks.

“My due date was actually Jan. 22,” said Briana, adding that Logan was born healthy and happy. “I was just ready.”

In recognition of Logan being the first child born this year at the hospital, the Pulsifers received a colonial cradle donated by Robert St. Maur of Cumberland Head in honor of the Veterans of Clinton County. Finishing work on the cradle was donated by Mike Calman, of Plattsburgh. Logan also received a collection of books given by the Journey Into Reading program.

“It’s nice that they give out stuff like that when you have the first New Year baby,” Logan’s mother said of the donation.

Logan was anticipated to return home with his mother and father this week. Briana works at Mountain Lake Services in Willsboro and Jesse is employed with a small carpentry business based in Saranac.

Aird Dorrance purchased by VP Supply MORRISONVILLE — Aird Dorrance, a supplier of household materials and industrial products has been purchased by VP Supply, which will be operating its company as a local division of VP. The decision to sell was partly due to the economic situation of the state, as well as, distribution factors of venders in the marketplace. VP will allow 10 times more access to inventory. Aird Dorrance was founded by Aird and Barbara Dorrance in 1960.

The company opened in Morrisonville in 2003, as a supplier of plumbing, kitchen, flooring, lighting and industrial materials. Aird Dorrance has 35 different employees at three different locations.

VP will now offer wholesale plumbing, HVAC, kitchen and renewable energy products to contractors and other customers. The Dorrances have planned to stay on to help manage the three locations in New York.

Final terms of the purchase have not been released.

Mooers woman dies in Wallace Hill crash

Salvation Army falls short of goal

Beartown Ski Area open

PLATTSBURGH — Michele Facey, 56, Mooers, died as a result of injuries from a two-car crash at the intersection of Route 374 and the east end of Wallace Hill Road Jan. 3. Lane Gray, 76, Mooers, was also in the car, and suffered severe internal injuries.

At around 1:30 p.m., Facey’s white Ford Taurus was northbound on Wallace Hill and entered the intersection of Route 374 where a Chevy pickup, driven by Andre Lawliss, 52, Morrisonville, reportedly struck the driver ’s side door of the car. Lawliss suffered minor injuries.

PLATTSBURGH — Plattsburgh Salvation Army is facing cuts after their 2010 kettle campaign did not reach its goal.

Rough weather and a shortage of volunteers have been said to have contributed to the loss, however the agency had raised $35,000, which is enough funds to cover basic services. The next few months will have the most effect on people in need.

Areas to be cut are gas and transportation. People who need clothes, food and shelter will be the main priority of the agency.

BEEKMANTOWN — Beartown Ski Area is now open for the 2010-11 season. The ski area will be open daily depending on the weather. Tickets to Beartown cost $18 for adult non-members and $16 for students.

Beartown will be open Fridays from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m., Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Sundays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Heart transplant recipient to speak at Go Red for Women

By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com

Heart transplant recipient Ginger Zimmerman will share her story at the annual Go Red for Women Dinner Wednesday, Jan. 19.

Photo provided

PLATTSBURGH — Ginger Zimmerman’s life was forever changed with three words — permanently dilated cardiomyopathy.

The Rochester woman was diagnosed with the condition in which her heart became weakened and enlarged, leaving it unable to pump blood efficiently.

When she visited a doctor with her symptoms, she learned the mysterious condition slowly robbing her of her energy and her health was a very serious one. It left her heart functioning at barely 15 percent of what the average heart does. “[The doctor] believed a virus destroyed my heart muscles over the last few years and I suffered the most damage in that last year and a half,” said Zimmerman. “He told me, ‘I can’t even believe you’re sitting here.”

Given the length of time she had likely

suffered from her condition, Zimmerman said her doctor told her she was lucky to be alive.

“With not being on any medications, anything could have killed me,” said Zimmerman. “I could have been killed by too much salt or too much potassium — anything. It was a miracle I was sitting there.”

The only option facing Zimmerman at the time was a heart transplant, which she eventually underwent and is the reason she’s able to share her story today about having regular examinations to catch conditions like hers early.

“I think everyone’s able to relate to my story whether I could be your daughter, your sister, your mother, your friend. It can connect with everyone,” she said.

The North Country will get the chance to hear Zimmerman’s story first-hand when she is the featured speaker at the annual Go Red for Women Dinner Wednesday, Jan. 19,

Weight loss and watching what you eat E

xercise is only part of the equation of an effective weight loss plan. What you are putting into your body plays an even bigger role. You can not out train a bad diet. If you are not eating right, not only can it have a negative effect on your health, you will fail at your weight loss goals. No one wants to hear that, but it’s the truth.

Most people have no idea how much they are actually consuming or how many calories your body actually needs. Using a food log is an effective tool to help manage your weight. Yes it sounds tedious and it does require a small amount of time to do, but if your goal is to lose weight, I highly recommend trying it.

Nine out of 10 Americans underestimate how many calories they eat in a day. By using a food journal, you will be able to see just how many calories you are consuming. It has been shown those who use food logging as a weight loss tool lose twice as much weight as those who do not.

Keeping a food log holds you accountable for what you are eating and you may think twice about downing that brownie if you have to write it down.

Even if you only keep a log for a couple of weeks, you can get an idea of what you are eating and what can be changed to get you on track. I recommend keeping a log with you through out the day, this way you have it handy at all times.

If you eat something write it down, along with the amount.

At the end of the day you can record it in an on-line journal like fitday.com (a free online calorie tracking tool). You will be able to see everything from how many calories you’re eating, to meeting your recommended daily allowance of certain nutrients. It is really a great tool I use myself and with many of my clients.

Food logging gets easier and easier the longer you keep up with it. It really takes less than a few minutes a day, and can have a huge impact on your health and weight loss goals. So if your goal for the year is weight loss, give it a try, it may be just what you need to kick start your weight loss or bust you out of a plateau.

So, who’s smarter?

One study, conducted by the University of Michigan, has demonstrated that people learn better after walking in the woods than after walking on a city street, since our working memory is often over-taxed in the city. Working memory is our “ability to actively hold information in the mind needed to do complex tasks such as reasoning, comprehension and learning.”

The frenetic pace of city life, with screeching tires, blaring horns and crowded sidewalks serves to deplete our working memory, which can limit our ability to reason.

According to researchers, “In the country, our senses kind of recalibrate—you notice sounds, like the crickets chirping; you hear the river, sense the smells, you become more connected to the physical environment, the earth, rather than the artificial environment…. and there’s a real mental freedom in knowing no one or nothing can interrupt you.”

The human mind needs nature, and even a little bit can be a big help. In the country, our senses change and there are measurable psychological and physiological affects. Scientists have discovered that being among plants produces “lower concentrations of cortisol, lower pulse rate, and lower blood pressure,” among other health benefits.

Reduction of stress makes it easier to learn, improves memory and increases comprehension. Studies have indicated that students performed at higher levels on standardized tests when the exams were administered in a classroom that featured natural lighting, open windows and green space, rather than in a classroom with artificial light and no natural surroundings.

things that require our “direct attention,” such as learning at school or solving problems or resolving conflicts.

In effect, urban environments diminish our ability to concentrate, which can affect memory and reasoning.

Recreation means to re-create, to renew or refresh one’s body, mind or soul. Research has proven that even a short walk in a forest can have restorative effects. When in a forest, surrounded by trees and foliage, we experience the calming and renewing effects of the environment around us. In essence, we are replenishing our reserves, soaking up energy from the earth.

Studies indicate that meaningful outdoor activity is essential to human happiness and longevity. The time we take to re-create correlates with better health and increased productivity. Human beings require restorative natural surroundings, no less than other living creatures.

urrently, the benefits of exposure to natural surroundings are at the center of numerous scientific studies, and the majority of the research indicates that forested hills, stillwater lakes and raging rivers are much better for the human mind, than towering buildings and long strips malls of urbanite.

Growing evidence may finally provide an answer to the age-old question, “Are country folk really smarter than city folk?”

It is a fact that our wild lands, free-flowing rivers and mountains rank among the region’s greatest economic assets. If the Adirondacks were covered by a gigantic paved parking lot, and surrounded by towering towers of concrete, the area would lose its appeal.

The reason visitors are willing to spend five or six hours traveling to the Adirondacks is to escape, to ‘vacate’ their typical surroundings.

They come to our region to relax, recharge and recreate while seeking opportunities for the renewal of mind, body and soul.

It’s nothing new. They’ve been coming this way for years, with the main charge beginning shortly after the Civil War. Fortunately, for our local economy, there appears to be very little let up, they just keep coming.

It makes me wonder, do city folk know something that we don’t? What is it that keeps drawing them back? What do they find here that is so enticing? Am I missing something?

Current research may soon provide answers to these perplexing questions. In our increasingly technological society, studies indicate that forests, and other comparable natural surroundings allow us to reconnect to the natural world and to ourselves.

We are, after all, natural beings and such important processes as rejuvenation and restoration are best accomplished in natural surroundings. In the woods or on the waters, we have an opportunity to naturally recharge and refresh the innate nature of our being.

According to the studies, exposure to plants and trees provides positive benefits to our health. The human mind requires natural experiences, and even a few moments outdoors can provide opportunities that captivate our attention, whether watching the wind in the trees, a bird on the breeze or a raging river flow.

Labeled, Attention Restorative Theory, the concept claims that when walking in the woods, a person typically utilizes “involuntary attention” when observing birds, sunsets or waterfalls. Such opportunities provide positive restorative factors. They are relaxing because they do not trigger the negative emotional responses that often result from exposure to the sirens or honking horns of an urban environment. Involuntary attention does not require focused concentration, and it does not tax our brain. Rather, it relaxes it.

In the city, a person is always on the alert for threats, dodging traffic, avoiding pedestrians on the sidewalk, or expending excess concentration in an attempt to dim the din of urbanity. In order to accomplish this, a person must remain focused on a variety of tasks, constantly concentrating their “direct attention” on a wide range of stimuli. When we are constantly focused, our prefrontal cortex is always in overdrive, and we end up not being as good at

All about operating systems Senior bullying on the rise

O

perating Systems is the course I spend the most time preparing for each year.

The course objectives remain stable, but the software often changes.

A decade ago I focused entirely on Microsoft products.

Students learned the basics of Windows 98, NT, and 2000 while exploring the graphical user interface. We also covered the command line interface, system tools, system maintenance procedures, and how to fix problems. Now the focus is only partly on Windows as we cover XP, Vista and Windows 7.

The growing use of open-source Linux in the IT world caused a recommendation from our advisory committee to incorporate Linux into the OS course. So around 2003, I started to spend a few weeks each semester covering one Linux distribution. The initial choice was Red Hat Linux which has transformed into a version called Fedora Core.

Yesterday I downloaded Fedora Core 14 in preparation for the spring semester.

Students will install Fedora, learn to use the graphical and command line interfaces, and become familiar with the OS. I believe if students become familiar with one Linux

distribution they can go on and learn other distributions. It’s no different than learning how to drive on a Chevy and then driving a Ford; the controls may be different but the big picture remains the same.

Learning virtual machine operation was long considered a more advanced IT topic but now it’s a critical skill for new technicians.

About three years ago I beBy Ron Poland gan covering software and hardware virtual machines. Students learned the differences between the two types while setting up a hardware machine using VMware’s ESXi. The coming semester will be the first with Windows 7 installed on the lab computers.

Along with exposure to the new OS, students will create and operate several virtual machines using a software virtual machine.

Ron Poland is a professor in the Computer Information Systems AAS program at Clinton Community College. Poland is certified in computer repair and networking by the Computer Technology Industry Association (CompTIA).

He is also a Cisco certified network assistant.

sons seniors join senior centers and senior housing facilities in the first place.

With the baby boomers aging, and the retirement community increasing, these issues will probably become more common. Some say bullying is just a normal part of communal living and human behavior, but the harm that can come from bullying is huge, and needs to be addressed.

One way to curtail bullying is for senior agencies to have, and enforce, a code of conduct that states all members will be treated with consideration, respect and recognition of their dignity. There needs to be clear expectations about what kind of behavior is appropriate, and to have an all around culture where bullying is unacceptable.

e’ve all heard about bullying before. Typically we think of bullying as a children’s issue. Anyone who has gone to school knows how mean some kids can be. There is a new bully on the block however, and it’s not a child, it’s a senior.

Senior bullying is apparently on the rise in senior housing and senior centers across the nation. There are cliques of seniors who exclude, shun, and taunt other seniors who are not part of “their” group. These bullies tell other seniors where they can and cannot sit, and what activities they can and cannot participate in. These altercations rarely become physical; however there is a real concern that seniors who are on the receiving end of bullying may isolate themselves by no longer attending a senior center, or not participating in the activities at their senior housing facility.

When this happens, these individuals may not be getting the medical and nutritional services they were previously getting. There is also a loss of socialization which is very important to the well being of all people, and one of the most common rea-

Good giving back through United Way As a student coming out of college I wanted to help people. I took on an internship at the United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc. and was amazed by the complexity of the problems that people were facing in my own community. Everyday was a new challenge trying to help the community and its citizens. As naive as I was I thought I could solve every issue and answer every question.

The United Way provides an opportunity for people like me to help. The money that is donated to the United Way is distributed to 36 partner agencies in three counties that cover all walks of life. Each agency uses the money for a specific purpose which is thoroughly reviewed on a yearly basis.

This dynamic that is the United Way allows me to help the young, old, and middle aged community members with a money donation. The United Way does not just throw money at problems. The programs funded are there to help fallen community members get back on their feet.

The United Way has given me the opportunity to be naive again. With a donation I can help people from all walks of life and with all kinds of issues. So can you, please donate to the United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc Larry Pickreign II Port Kent

Community urged to do its part Our free society has many perks and benefits. All too often we don’t appreciate how good we have it until we face that unexpected, life-changing event. A health scare, an accident at home, a sudden job disruption or a personal crisis or change. It can happen to any of us, at any time.

This wonderful society also comes with responsibilities, some mandatory like taxes; oth-

Growing plants in winter

Y

ou cannot deny the winter season is a long one up here in the North Country. But, that does not mean we cannot enjoy our gardens during the winter months. What makes a plant a good candidate for winter landscapes in our snowy region?

While it is true evergreen shrubs and conifer trees add visual interest to the winter landscapes, so do many other plants. Some deciduous shrubs and trees have interesting form or showy bark. Other bushes have bright, showy berries that cling to their branches throughout the winter. Ornamental grasses and other perennials that keep their upright form also can add winter interest to the landscape.

When creating a landscape that focuses on winter interest, consider using both mass plantings and single specimens. In gardening terms, mass refers to a group of coherent plantings. A mass planting can be accomplished by planting several of the same plants together or several plants that have similar color, texture, or density.

These plantings complement, rather than compete with, the natural panorama and can be enjoyed both close up and from a distance.

Well-placed mass plantings in any setting can draw the eye and lend a naturalistic air

the ‘burgh

to a garden. Just make sure you work with the scale of your yard, so the mass planting is not overpowering.

Specimen plantings are individual trees, shrubs, or plants you want to showcase.

These are plants that have unique texture, bark, or form you wish to highlight. During our long winter nights, specimen plantings can even be highlighted with the use of lighting. My in-laws had a Scotch pine (Pinus sylvestris) growing in their back yard that always was a beautiful tree, but blended into the landscape. A few years ago, the tree was pruned and a few spotlights were strategically placed at the trunk. At night, with the lights creating unique shadows and highlighting the tree’s bonsai-like form the tree is now a show-stopper.

Knowing how to plan your winter landscape is just one step in the process. The other step is knowing which plants hold winter interest. Next week’s column will cover a variety of plants that are worth adding to the landscape for winter interest.

ers are optional such as volunteering or contributing financially. Without individuals stepping forward to accept these “optional” responsibilities our society would surely fail. Like any organization or group you belong to “dues” must be paid and sacrifices made for the good the whole group.

In recent weeks the local news has been full of heroic deeds and humanitarian tasks like guardsman and soldiers returning from the front protecting the freedoms we enjoy, individuals donating organs so that others may enjoy a fuller life, volunteer fireman risking their life and safety to save lives, volunteers devoting countless hours to shelter and feed homeless individuals and even pets, toys being donated to brighten a child’s Christmas, volunteers standing out in the cold to ring bells at the red kettles collecting funds for those less fortunate and children sending funds to children in countries ravaged by storms and natural disasters.

No one forces us to perform those tasks, we all recognize their importance. None of us are in a position to do it all, but each of us needs to participate in these optional responsibilities. The difference between those who do and those who do not accept these added responsibilities can be scene in their faces. The joy of helping someone other than you is a gift that can’t be replicated. The good deeds we do sooner or later circle back around making this a better community, country and world that we all must share.

I urge you to do your part. If you’re unsure where to start, or even if you are already active in volunteering your time and making financial contributions, may I suggest a contribution to the United Way of the Adirondacks? Through this united community campaign many across our three county region are helped. So if the United Way is not on your “do good” list this holiday season, please, consider adding and make our place in this world a better place for us all.

Man born without a voice, gets one with Liberator

By Renee Cumm renee@denpubs.com (Editor’s Note: The following is the first in a two-part series about Lawrence Smart, a 63-year-old man formerly of Plattsburgh who has no use of his voice due to having cerebral palsy. However, Smart has found his voice through the use of an electronic device known as a Liberator.)

PLATTSBURGH — Lawrence Smart may not be able to speak, but through the use of technology, he can communicate in a way he once never could.

Smart, the eldest of seven children, was born in the hamlet of Redford April 17, 1971. He was born with cerebral palsy, a condition that usually appears before a child reaches age 3. The most common effects of the condition are lack of muscle coordination when performing voluntary movements, stiff muscles and exaggerated reflexes.

Many people with the condition are intellectually aware of their surroundings, but are often confined to a wheel-

chair. Assisting someone with this condition can be challenging, since they are often immobile.

Smart’s mother described him as being crippled throughout his life.

“That is what we told everyone,” his sister, Louise Tedford, said. “We didn’t know about cerebral palsy.”

One of the most difficult challenges Smart faced with his condition was the inability to speak. For 46 years, Smart could only communicate with his immediate family through non-verbal signals or body language, such as moving his eyes up and down for “ yes” or side to side for “no” — until he received his Liberator in 1993.

“It was like he was a baby,” said Tedford. “We just knew what he wanted.”

When he was 46, Smart found his voice in the form of a Liberator — an electronic device that he can operate by using his head to press a button located on the headrest of his wheelchair.

The Liberator then cycles through a quarter row of icons and symbols, with

Pine Harbour in need of van for residents PLATTSBURGH — Pine Harbour Assisted Living has been trying to raise funds for a van that can transport elderly residents.

Residents have been involved in raising funds for the van, and recently received a $1,000 donation from the New York State Corrections Officers and Police Benevolent Association, the labor unit from Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora.

So far, $8,000 has been raised, but the facility needs to raise $80,000 more. The van needs to have a wheelchair lift and be accessible to senior residents. The facility is not eligible for grant funding to help in purchasing vehicles.

Facility officials said members of the community could help by donating their money or time to the fundraising effort.

For information about the fundraising campaign, call Pine Harbour at 561-5307.

Area agencies awarded Decentralization grants PLATTSBURGH — The recipients for the 2011 Decentralization grants, totaling $22,153.60, have been nominated by The North Country Cultural Center for the Arts.

Local organizations will receive grants for several 2011 art performances such as Champlain Valley Voices, with $1,650 for the spring concert, and Moria Historical Association, with $990 for the town of Moira Historical Association’s Summer Concert Series.

The funding is provided by the New York State Council of the Arts to be redistributed throughout the North Country Cultural Center for the Arts and for cultural programming in Clinton and northern Franklin counties.

two or more symbols making up a sentence. That allows Smart to communicate hundreds of words using this technique.

Advanced technological voice devices, such as Smart’s Liberator, have allowed many people a chance to finally communicate with others. Tedford said it is amazing to watch her brother using his Liberator.

“When Lawrence received his Liberator, my father was so pleased,” said Tedford, adding their father couldn’t understand Smart before he had the device.

Smart’s mother cared for him until her health failed at age 71, said Tedford.

After attempting to live in a nursing home, Smart settled into Sunmount in Keeseville, a home for the developmentally-disabled. Many of the residents there cannot speak, but Smart will try to communicate with anyone who will listen, she said.

“He’s a very outgoing man,” said Tedford.

Lawrence Smart is able to communicate with others through the use of an electronic device known as a Liberator. The device helps Smart — who lives with cerebral palsy — be more independent.

What to think about when getting a pellet stove

By Sarah L. Cronk sarah@denpubs.com WEST CHAZY — When walking outside in 20-something degree weather, people often begin to wonder the best way to heat their home.

With the new trend of turning to ecofriendly products on the rise, pellet stoves may be taken into consideration.

According to George Thew, owner of Heat Wave on Route 22, he first began the business five years ago with pellet stoves in mind.

“Basically I was always tinkering with different ways to heat my home,” said Thew.

“The pellet idea came up and I started using the products myself. There wasn’t anybody in the area that knew anything about a pellet stove or anything like that and one thing led to another and we decided to open up a shop.”

Thew has found people are switching to the pellet stove for many reasons.

“I guess when it comes to pellet products, people switch because it’s a less expensive way to heat their home, versus oil,” he said, adding pellets average about $200-250 per

ton, with the majority of homes burning about four to six tons a season. “It’s a renewable resource, so that’s kind of nice. Depending on how the manufacturing process goes, for the most part it does burn much greener. You’re not using the petroleum products to create the fuel with ethanol.”

In comparison to wood stoves, the U.S.

January 8 - 14, 2011

Department of Energy states popularity of heating with wood resurfaced in the 1970s as it was considered a renewable energy alternative during the energy crisis. However, their Web site states “Wood-burning appliances and fireplaces may emit large quantities of air pollutants. Wood smoke contains hundreds of chemical compounds including nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, organic gases, and particulate matter, many of which have adverse health effects.

In many urban and rural areas, smoke from wood burning is a major contributor to air pollution.”

On the other hand, pellets are made from compacted, sawdust, wood chips, bark, agricultural crop waste, waste paper and other organic materials.

Other pros Thew has found with the pellet stoves is they are able to be thermostatically controlled and will start and shut themselves off.

However, there are other things to take into consideration if look at pellet stoves.

Thew said the pellets come in 40-pound bags that will need to be lifted and poured into a small container in the stove.

“That may become an issue with a particular customer,” he said, adding the pellets typically need to be filled on a daily basis.

Another issue is the cleaning of the stoves.

“Those customers that don’t want to spend a lot of time cleaning them, because you do have to clean any solid fuel burner,” he said.

Also, if the power goes out, a pellet stove will be useless.

“With pellet stoves, unless you have a battery backup system, or a generator, when the power goes out, you don’t have heat,” said Thew. “Those are just things we look at when we talk to a customer.”

Stimulus funds aiding local solar energy project PLATTSBURGH — A total of $1.1 million can aid in several energy-efficient projects in the area.

The money has been set aside by the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority as part of the Recovery and Reinvestment Act funding for projects. Two projects have already benefited from the funds, one being the Plattsburgh International Airport, which has begun construction of a 4,000-square-foot SolarWall. The project will cost $120,000.

A continuation of the SolarWall is next on the list of projects, and it has been awarded $500,000. The SolarWall will heat buildings within the airport, while also using clean energy.

Gouverneur-based Dynamic Construction has begun the work for the project.

City Council votes down salary reduction PLATTSBURGH — During a budget discussion Dec. 28, a resolution was defeated to reduce the city of Plattsburgh councilor ’s salaries by $1,000.

Mayor Donald M. Kasprzak, was the tie-breaking vote, with councilors Tim Carpenter, DWard 1; George Rabideau, R-Ward 3; and Chris Jackson, D-Ward 6, voting against the resolution. Mike Kelly, D-Ward 2; James Calnon, I-Ward 4; and Amy Valentine, D-Ward 5 all voted in favor of the pay cut.

During the meeting the council also withdrew a resolution to reduce the number of council meetings to twice a month.

Suspect in meth bust going to trial PLATTSBURGH — Bucky Boula, 46, Beekmantown has pleaded guilty to operating a methamphetamine lab at the Stonehelm Motel. He was arrested in February and is facing charges of second-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, second-degree conspiracy and third-degree unlawful manufacture of meth. The case will begin with jury selection Jan. 18.

BEEKMANTOWN — Three local dog-control laws have been adopted by the Beekmantown Town Council.

New York State recently relinquished its hold on dog-control laws, handing the power to municipalities. Local Law No. 2 replaces that law, regulating dog control in the town.

Local Law No. 3 establishes new dog-license fees, and Local Law No. 4 regulates the sheltering of all dogs.

Helping keep promises Students from Oak Street Elementary School present Maureen Bradish of Family Promise a check for $351.25. The money was raised from Grandma's Attic, a holiday shop offered at the school where students shop for their families for the holidays. All items are donated and are purchased for a quarter.

Robinsons to perform at Palmer Street Coffeehouse

Dana and Susan Robinson will perform at the Palmer Street Coffeehouse on Friday, Jan. 7.

Photo submitted

PLATTSBURGH — Palmer Street Coffeehouse will welcome dynamic husband and wife duo Dana and Susan Robinson for a performance on Friday, Jan. 7.

The Robinsons hail from Asheville, N.C., and are known for bringing an exciting blend of original songs of the American landscape and old-time Appalachian mountain music to the stage. Dana plays guitar and fiddle while Susan’s clawhammer-banjo playing and harmony singing rounds out the joyful energy they bring to their concerts. Their music has been called “the sound and feel of bedrock America.”

A native of the Pacific Northwest, Dana relocated to New England where he discovered both a thriving songwriters scene and the deep well of traditional mountain music. In the early 1980s, he settled in northern Vermont and built a house “off the grid” — with no electricity or telephone — on 30 acres near the Canadian border. There, he founded a popular bakery, café and folk music venue. Dana launched into full-time touring after the release of his 1994 debut CD, “Elemental Lullabye,” and after receiving a request to perform at Carnegie Hall in New York City for Putumayo’s Shelter benefit project. His instrumental “Crossing The Platte” was featured in Ken Burns’ new PBS

documentary, “Our National Parks, America’s Best Idea.”

Susan grew up in a musical family in New England. She studied piano, oboe, and Scottish fiddle before meeting Dana in 2002. She was working in the environmental field in California when she met Dana at a house concert. Upon moving to North Carolina, a short time after, Susan launched into studying with many of the great old-time musicians in the Asheville area, and naturally adapted to the on-the-road lifestyle.

Their latest CD, “Big Mystery,” charted No. 3 on the national folk DJ list, and celebrates the indomitable life force of the natural world and shines a light upon the beauty of the small and forgotten pockets of rural America.

The Robinsons will perform at the Palmer Street Coffeehouse beginning at 7:30 p.m.

Doors will open at 7 p.m. Admission is $10 per person.

The coffeehouse is located in the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship at 4 Palmer St. For more information, call 561-9418.

Performances are made possible, in part, with public funds from the New York State Council of the Arts Decentralization Program, administered locally by the North Country Cultural Center for the Arts.

Lie Captive hits stage this Saturday at Olive Ridley’s

By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — Lie Captive’s sound has always been hard to describe, if you ask the band’s drummer, Joe Cross.

“The closest label we have been able to come up with collectively is ‘Progressive Post-Hardcore with a tinge of technical Metallic Hardcore flavor,’” said Cross.

Cross and his fellow bandmates — bassist and vocalist Tyler Oliver and guitarist and vocalist Chris Parmelee — all listen to a variety of music, like bands A Wilhelm Scream, Strike Anywhere, and Hot Water Music. That range in taste is something that Cross said can be heard when they play.

“We don’t really actively seek to emulate any one band. I feel like this shows in our songs,” said Cross. “We are all just huge music enthusiasts and in general, like whatever is done well with quality and heart in mind.”

The closest definition of their style of music, said Cross, is a brand of punk/hardcore, which is what he said sets them apart from other bands in the area.

“That does make us stand out in some way, but I think it’s mostly our live shows that keeps people coming out,” said Cross. “We try to play our music in a precise [way] while striving to maintain as much raw power, emotion and volume as humanly possible.”

Lie Captive has thrived in live performances since the band formed last May, connecting with crowds in smaller venues like the Coffee Camp, formerly on Margaret Street. Live

the ‘burgh

shows put the band in touch with the “great variety of people in the Plattsburgh area,” said Cross, and keeps them in tune with the independent/underground music scene in the city.

“I would like to think we know how to relate to people on a real, very conversational level and we try to do that as much as possible during and after our sets,” said Cross. “It’s important to create a sense and belonging with the people that enjoy your music and it’s something we take very seriously, on the road and at home.”

The one thing Cross said he’d like to see change in the local music scene is the stigma that people are mainly interested in listening to covers versus original music.

Many times, said Cross, he’s been told playing covers is the way to get people to listen to their band.

“I feel like this is the overwhelming consensus amongst the general Plattsburgh population, and frankly, it’s dead wrong,” he said. “We’d like to work to change that and give a voice to artists that play original music that may not fit the mold and who are more than just background music for people to get inebriated to.”

(Editor’s Note: Lie Captive’s next show will be this Saturday, Jan. 8, at Olive Ridley’s, 37 Court St. Check out the band on-line on Facebook at www.facebook.com/liecaptive and through Death To False Hope Records at www.deathtofalsehoperecords.com. The band’s three-song demo is available for download for free on the DTFHR Web site in the releases section.)

To redeem a property, in addition to the Amount Due, the taxpayer is required to pay "charges" or "legal charges" which means: (a) the cost of the mailing or service of notices required or authorized by this article; (b) the cost of publication of notices required or authorized by this title; (c) the amount of any interest and penalties imposed by law; (d) the cost of recording or filing legal documents required or authorized by this article; and (e) the reasonable and necessary cost of any search of the public record required or authorized to satisfy the notice requirements of this article, and the reasonable and necessary expenses for legal services of a tax district in connection with a proceeding to foreclose a tax lien.

See: § 1102 Real Prop. Tax Law If the above tax parcels are subject to taxes that became liens after the above listed tax years, the liens must be redeemed in reverse chronological order, so that the lien with the most recent lien date is redeemed first, and the lien with the earliest lien date is redeemed last. The enforcement process shall proceed as long as the earliest lien remains unredeemed.
