PLATTSBURGH — Throughout time,people have been afraid of what they donot understand, of what they view as dif-ferent.

The stigma and misconceptions aboutmental illness are vast, but Alison Doh-Carter hopes to help change that.

“Mental illness doesn’t have the advo-cates, money and politicians fighting for itlike other minority groups,” she said,speaking in Plattsburgh as part of a pro-gram called “In Our Own Voice.”

PLATTSBURGH — SUNY Plattsburgh students are joiningforces to raise funds for the American Red Cross HurricaneSandy relief effort.

Organizations, individual students, sororities and fraterni-ties have staged coin drives in the residence halls, are hostingtabling events at the Angell College Center and ChamplainCentre Mall and will be engaging in other efforts in the com-ing weeks.

“A couple of days after the hurricane hit, administrators ofstudent affairs got together to discuss the fundraising effortswe knew the student groups were involved in,” said AllisonSwick-Duttine, director of fraternity/sorority life and organi-zation development at SUNY Plattsburgh.

About 20 percent of the college’s student population hailsfrom the regions most heavily impacted by the storm.

“We knew many students were going to try to do things forthe victims,” Swick-Duttine said. “We thought we’d try to har-ness their efforts to make a bigger impact. I volunteered to co-ordinate all that.”

An initial meeting was held Nov. 1 where some 35 students,representing residence hall councils, organizations, clubs, fra-ternities and sororities across campus came to assist in the cam-paign. They discussed various fundraising options and effortsto increase involvement.

“We’re trying to get the word out to students, faculty and

staff that they can all participate,” Swick-Duttine said.Kathryn Castillo, a senior anthropology major from the

Bronx, said that while she has been involved in communityservice and fundraising events throughout her years at SUNYPlattsburgh, Hurricane Sandy hit close to home — literally andfiguratively.

“We didn’t have much damage at our home, but we were re-ally fortunate compared to so many others. I know so manypeople up here who have families and friends affected in NewYork and New Jersey,” Castillo said. “It made me sad.”

Castillo headed an effort Saturday at the Champlain CentreMall where she and other volunteers accepted donations forthe Red Cross disaster relief.

“We’ll be selling ribbons for a donation. The Red Cross willbe there as well,” she said. “It is my goal to reach the entirecommunity. I know they want to put efforts into helping, andthis is an important way. We know the Red Cross doesn’t needcanned goods or clothing, and sometimes people don’t knowwhat else to do. It’s the best way to help the Red Cross at thistime.”

Senior nursing major Caitlin Leahey is familiar with volun-teer activity as well. Like Castillo, she’s in a sorority and heav-ily involved in community service.

“Allison reached out to our sorority and asked if we wantedto get involved. I volunteered,” Leahey said. “It’s a really goodcause. I know what the Red Cross does to help during disas-ters, and this one affects so many of our students directly.”

Of the ideas thrown out for discussion at the meeting, Lea-hey said one that had potential was for a local restaurant tobring in volunteer student servers, who would collect a per-centage from each meal ordered. Leahey contacted the manag-er at Texas Roadhouse and is waiting to hear back as to whatday — most likely after Thanksgiving — the charity serverswill be brought in.

For its part, the college is making sure students whose fam-ilies were affected by the hurricane know there are resourcesavailable to them on campus and in the community. These in-clude counseling services, assistance from faculty for academ-ic challenges and possible adjustments to financial aid pack-

ages for qualified students. (Students who think they mightqualify would need to discuss their circumstances with the Of-fice of Financial Aid.)

In addition, the Student Association sponsored a round-tripbus for students from the region who felt the need to go homelast weekend.

For more information on the student fundraising efforts orto contribute or volunteer, contact Swick-Duttine at 518-564-4825 or email her at [email protected].

PLATTSBURGH—The Nutcracker is a holi-day tradition for fans of the show and a laborof love for those who put it together.

This year, the North Country Ballet Ensem-ble will perform the popular ballet in Platts-burgh Nov. 23-25 and in Lake Placid Dec. 1 and2.

The performance was choreographed by res-ident choreographer Terpsie Toon of the LakePlacid School of Ballet and guest choreogra-phers Rebecca Kelly of Rebecca Kelly Balletand Michela Boschetto from the NCBE creativeteam.

Led by NCBE’s Artistic Director AliceSchonbek, the show will feature 70 local stu-dent dancers, 10 community members andguest ballerina Therese Wendler.

Guest performer Mikhail Ilyin, a native of St.Petersburg, Russia who dances for AmericanBallet Theatre, will assume the role of Cavalierin the Plattsburgh performance.

In Lake Placid, the role of Cavalier will beperformed by Andres Neira of New Jersey Bal-let.

But it isn’t all sugar plums and bonbons forthe performers, many of whom take time outof their otherwise busy schedules to perfecttheir moves by rehearsing almost daily.

For Schonbek, it’s easy to justify devotingthat much time—she has had a passion for theart form since she was a child and watching herstudents evolve is a major component of thatpassion.

“It’s the sheer number of hours of having towork to perfect things that aren’t necessarilynatural for your body,” Schonbek said. “It’s areal balance between the athleticism and thefiner points.”

An advanced training schedule for a balleri-na is a full-time job. Between daily classes andrehearsals, a dancer can easily net more than30 hours a week in practice time.

But the practice isn’t just about stretchingand dancing—instructors analyze every mo-

tion and every position, and constantly makecorrections.

“No matter how old you get you alwayshave someone mentoring you,” Schonbek said.“The rehearsal process is all about being cor-rected.”

Teagan Plimpton, a 17-year-old senior atPeru High School who is playing five roles inthe Nutcracker, can relate.

“You don’t ever get everything the first timeyou try it,” Plimpton said.

Besides school work and picking a college toattend after she graduates, Plimpton attends 2-hour-long ballet classes and practices that canlast more than two hours several times a week,and has attended summer intensives, an in-tense summer camp for ballerinas.

Having danced since she was three, it’s safeto say it’s an intrinsic part of her life, like eat-ing, sleeping and breathing.

“I like expressing myself through music,”Plimpton said. “It’s totally worth the work.”

Staying with ballet hasn’t always been easy,though. Besides the time it demands, Plimptonhas never had full range of motion with her lefthand, making it difficult for her to pull offsome of the subtleties of certain ballet moves.

Her solution was to learn to work around theproblem, a methodology that has paid off.

“When I first did the Nutcracker, I started offas a Bonbon,” Plimpton explained. “This yearI’m playing North Wind, Chinese, CandyCane, Arabian and Dew Drop.”

Plimpton is excited to play so many roles,but she’s even more excited to share the stagewith Therese Wendler, a professional ballerinafrom New York City who will play the SugarPlum Fairy and Queen of the North Winds inthe Snow variation in this year’s performance.

Wendler has been performing the Nutcrack-er since she was seven, and said the show—with its dancing mice and spinningsnowflakes— hasn’t lost its power for her.

“I think it’s the music,” Wendler said.“Tchaikovsky is absolutely beautiful. After allthese years, there are still parts that build upemotionally in the music.”

As a child, Wendler began tak-ing ballet lessons after her moth-er saw her walking around thehouse on her tip-toes. At first shedidn’t care for it, but performingchanged her mind.

“Performing is a natural high,”Wendler said. “Here I am, show-ing you what I can do—it takes itto another level.”

Wendler explained that differ-ent roles require different actions,which also takes the art form to adifferent level for her.

A villain’s hands are positioneddifferently than a non-villain’s,and the motions are stark, sharpand demanding.

In contrast, as the Queen of theNorth Winds she must use herbody to emulate the movement ofsnow and how it relates to the oc-currence of a snow storm thatbuilds in intensity with the music.

Since the show has been co-choreographed by Rebecca Kelly,whom Wendler has worked withfor nine years, she and the NorthCountry dancers will be on thesame page for their first full-cast rehearsal,which will happen just days before openingnight.

“The nice thing is, I’ve worked with some ofthese students before, so I’m not a totalstranger coming in,” Wendler said. “It’s inspir-ing for me. I want to encourage them to danceand enjoy it.”

Wendler added that she hopes that, in work-ing with young ballet students, she can showthem it is possible to become a professional bal-lerina, so long as they possess passion and arewilling to commit to the full-time hours the artrequires.

“To be a ballerina you have to have a strongmind and be strong in yourself,” Wendler said.“Ballet is not an easy world to be in, but if youlove what you do it will come out in your art.”

The Nutcracker will be performed in Plattsburgh on Fri-day, Nov. 23 and Saturday, Nov. 24, at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. andSunday, Nov. 25 at 2 p.m. at the Hartman Theater in the My-ers Fine Arts Building at Plattsburgh State.

The holidays can be a heart-warming time of year,when family members

come together to make lastingmemories.

It can also be a very lonely anddepressing time for some — a timethat can push the deeply de-pressed to the brink.

The North Country witnessedjust such a situation last weekwhen a 73-year-old Keene Valleywoman was the apparent victim of a suicide atAuSable Chasm.

While we cannot begin to pretend to under-stand what drove this woman to her ultimatedecision, one thing is for certain — suicide andthe events that lead up to it are almost always acry for help, and there are people in place will-ing to offer that help to those who are willingto accept it.

Suicide prevention professionals throughoutthe region want people to know that they areavailable around the clock to offer a sympa-thetic ear — and they want to get the word outthat treatment does work.

“The most important message here is thathelp is available and it works,” said MaryAnne Cox, a licensed clinical social workerwith the National Alliance on Mental Illness ofChamplain Valley (NAMI:CV), which servesClinton, Essex and Franklin Counties.

“Whether people are suffering from depres-sion or are having thoughts of suicide, therapyis available and it works,” she said.

Last Saturday, Nov. 17, was InternationalSurvivors of Suicide Day. Cox said NAMI of-fers a free suicide survivors grief supportgroup in Plattsburgh the second Wednesday ofeach month beginning at 7 p.m. She also pro-vides free one-on-one grief counseling. Peoplecan find out more by calling Cox at 563-1141 orNAMI at 561-2685.

Suicide is a growing problem, both locallyand nationally.

According to the American Foundation forSuicide Prevention, the rate of suicide has beenon the rise since 2010. It now ranks in the top10 as the leading cause of death in the UnitedStates and accounts for more than 12 deathsper 100,000 people each year. That is the high-est rate of suicide in 15 years.

While suicide rates do trend up slightly dur-ing the holiday season, rates are even higher inthe early fall and spring when people haveeven less of a safety net surrounding them, Coxsaid.

“Often, after the holidays as families depart,heading into spring, people become even more

isolated and thus more depressed,”Cox said. “These are the times thatthey need to know that they are notalone. That we are there for them.”

A study recently conducted byresearchers from Hamilton Collegein Clinton, New York concludedthat New York ranked lowest insuicide rates among all 50 states inthe US.

In contrast, however, New Yorkranked 45th out of 50 in “well-be-ing” a calculation attached to how

happy its residents are. Which means that while New Yorkers are the

least apt to commit suicide, the state ranks 45thout of 50 in how happy its residents are.

And, while suicide rates are lower in moreurban areas like New York City, those rates risein more isolated regions where there are lesspeople to turn to for help, Cox said.

“The prevalence of suicide in rural areas, likeupstate New York is definitely higher,” shesaid. “Guns are more prevalent, people aremore isolated from one another and help isharder to find.”

Cox said there is always someone willing tolisten, from a neighbor to a primary careprovider. Here are some numbers to call forhelp:

Suicide: There is always someone willing to listen

On behalf of everyone here at Den-ton Publications, let me wish youa happy Thanksgiving.

In these rapidly changing times, our cul-ture is undergoing a massive transforma-tion when it is easy to find so many thingsabout which to complain. Look around,pick up a newspaper, turn on the radio orTV, or log onto the Internet and you’ll findtons of material from which you can singthe blues. Complaining seems to be ourmost popular pastime these days.

We can’t take lightly the challenging eco-nomic times we find ourselves in at thispoint in time. But this weekend, as muchas any other time, we need to realize andreflect on all we have to be thankful for aswe sit here in 2012. This country is still fullof promise and opportunity.

Hopefully your Thanksgiving was high-lighted by a wonderful meal in the compa-ny of friends and family. Some of you mayhave lost those dear to you since last yearand while it may be painful without them,be thankful for the good times you enjoyedwith them while they were here and treas-ure those previous Thanksgiving mealswhen you were all together.

Not too many years ago, if you were un-able to connect in person with all yourloved ones, as cross-country travel wasvery expensive, what a task it was just tomake a phone call. We had stationary, hardwired, rotary phones with very expensivelong distances charges. Many times thephone lines were so busy over a major hol-iday weekend that calls couldn’t getthrough. We didn’t have speed dial, an-swering machines or voicemail, so youmight have to try many times. Today withour smart phones, computers, tablets andsocial media, we can send instant picturesand minute-by-minute details of events todistant family and friends. Plus, we cancall them at will from almost anyplace oreven Skype them in real time and carry onface-to-face conversations through thecomputer screen across the world.

Go back even further and think aboutthe life-and-death dangers faced by theearly settlers of our country. Today wecomplain about luggage fees and TSA lineswhile we wait to take a jet across the coun-try that will have us to our final destina-tion in just few hours. Our forefathers trav-eled in wooden boats or wagons facing un-

told dangers atevery turn. Lovedones on either sideof a trip may havenever known theoutcome of a visitgone bad. Norcould they com-municate any life-changing events easily.

Complaining will always be a part of ourlives regardless of what age we live in, butwhen put into the context of time, chal-lenges and frustrations will be seen as hur-dles to some and opportunities to others.We can look back to the past and we lookahead into the future, but each of us wasgiven only one lifetime to live and this isthe time and place we find ourselves.While some may long for the past and oth-ers can’t wait for the future, make sure totake full advantage of the present. The op-portunities you have today with familyand friends may be very different by nextyear. The regrets of yesterday can only befulfilled today.

On this Thanksgiving, count your bless-ings and cherish those you’ve been able toshare it with. Regardless of your situation,hope and opportunity are out there. Youmay have to open yourself up to find them,but a truly thankful heart can always seethings more clearly. Let’s all hope the un-rest, wars, pessimism and doubt concern-ing our future can be replaced with peaceand optimism when we realize and givethanks for the many wonderful blessing weenjoy at this time and in this place. Let’shope that as a society we take greater stockin what we have to be thankful for ratherthan fighting and stressing over the thingswe don’t or won’t have. Life is so shortand regrets can build up over the years.Don’t wait until it’s too late to appreciateour many blessings.

Let me also take this time to thank all ofyou who read this column and our publica-tions. We are thankful for your supportand the many emails and letters you’vesent over the past year. We intend to workhard to continue earning your support.Happy Thanksgiving.

During the months leadingup to the election severalpeople ranted about so-

cialism, claiming the country washeaded that way or that this or thatpolitical candidate was a socialist.

We already partially live in a so-cialist country with public schoolsand public police and fire depart-ments and Medicare and Social Se-curity.

We also live in a country that em-braces the free market and in whichcapitalism thrives.

As I write this, an approachingholiday should calm the fears ofanyone worried about a socialisttakeover. Capitalism is clearly partof our very foundation – not that itshouldn’t be – and we overwhelm-ingly show our support for it everyBlack Friday.

Nationwide, people hit the storesearly, in the freezing cold, lining upat the doors hours before openingwith folding chairs, blankets, food,coffee and even portable music andmovie players, very likely pur-chased the previous Black Friday.

This year, in anticipation of everincreasing numbers and because ofpublic demand, the stores are open-ing earlier. That should come as arelief to the individuals waiting,

their breath white in front of them,with visions of LCD-TV’s and lap-tops and music players dancing intheir heads.

I’ve always felt sad during BlackFriday, because while some peoplesimply want to accumulate morestuff, others are there because thisis the only time of year they can af-ford a gigantic television. I am notjudging, because I might be theretoo, except I usually cannot affordthe super-cheap gigantic television.

Black Friday shows what peopleare willing to line up for hours for,and in that very act makes a state-ment about our priorities.

It should relieve anyone worriedabout a socialist or communisttakeover. Capitalism and the freemarket are not going anywhere,and not that they should, and ifBlack Friday is any indicator, con-sumer culture’s place in society is,beyond a shadow of a doubt, safe.

Think about it—stuff, materialstuff, is on sale, and we are willingto line up for hours in the freezingcold for those items that we do notneed to survive, but we clearlywant. I am not saying there is any-thing wrong with those items or inwanting or possessing those items.To each their own, and you are not

a bad person just because youspend a year planning how to se-cure your spot in line to land thedeals on Black Friday.

Yet why aren’t people willing toline up for hours in the freezingcold for the things we, in some cas-es, need to survive and thrive?

Let’s examine our priorities.Various medical agencies offer

free clinics and workshops andseminars geared toward educatingthe public about its health, touch-ing on topics ranging from cancerto diabetes to obesity to exercise. I

don’t see anyone lining up hoursfor these free educational experi-ences that could save people’slives, or at the very least consider-ably improve their health.

In fact, there are often manyempty seats at such events.

Various agencies, including men-tal health and organizations thatwork with the disabled, holdevents that touch on stigma, dis-abilities, mental illness, mentalhealth, family support and more.These events provide valuable in-formation that in some cases is vi-tal to a healthy, functioning society,information that could alleviatemuch pain and suffering and im-prove the quality of life for so manypeople and answer an array ofquestions for individuals in desper-ate need of such answers, and I amnot just speaking about the individ-uals afflicted and their families.

No lines for these free events. Nofolding chairs and coffee and musicplayers for entertainment whilewaiting in line. In fact, individualsholding these events are often quitepleased if at least a dozen peopleshow up.

Yet these events might reveal thatyou or a family member is mentallyill and there is help available or

that your actions hurt members ofan already marginalized communi-ty.

Perhaps you discover your fami-ly has poor eating habits and youtake the information you gatherand prevent your children from de-veloping diabetes.

Maybe one workshop saves youfrom cancer, another from a lovedone committing suicide, a third iseducational and gives you the toolsyou need to begin the process ofchanging careers, a fourth revealsthere is support to help you go backto school, and yet another providespeople with the tools to make thelives of themselves and thosearound them more pleasant andless tragic.

I’m not saying stop turning outfor Black Friday, but there are an ar-ray of free and/or cheap events inthis community that we should belining up for too.

These events will help us in waysthree hours in front of a massivewide screen ever will.

So what are we willing to riskfrostbite for? Healthy, happier livesin a supportive society, or televi-sions?

She hasno interest in the cats that roam the office at Elmore, andshe is quite content to lay at my feet while I work at mydesk. Ruby does not like to be kenneled or left outside ina kennel. She is a fabulous escape artist and tunneled un-der our fence once or twice to getto be with us. Rubydoes like to exercise and will do best in an active home.Ruby is a super sweet dog that gets along with everyoneshe meets. Ruby will be available for adoption after sheis current on vaccinations and tested for heart worm.Come in and meet this loving dog who would make any-one a great companion.

afraid. Roxie is cautious around new people and needssome time to become comfortable with you; once shedoes, you will find that she has a goofy, sweet, fun-lov-ing side that is positively endearing. Roxie would ben-efit from a home with experienced dog owners, whocan provide the structure and leadership she needs tohelp her become the best companion she can be.

When something has “the look,” you just have tostand back and appreciate what you are watch-ing.

Such was the case with the 2012 Chazy Eagles boys var-sity soccer team. From the start of the season, everyonecould see that there was something different that wouldend up setting this team apart from the others.

In Chazy, that is a difficult thing to do, as the rest of Sec-tion VII measures success with Sectional banners and re-gional appearance, the Eagles measure them in plaquesthat resemble the state of New York (they really have to dosomething to make Long Island look better, though).

Hey, David Poitras even said it, they had to get their tro-phy back.

That is exactly what they did, rolling through every Sec-tion VII opponent save one (a 3-3 tie with Beekmantownthat they won on penalty kicks, in our book making them22-0-0, not 21-0-1). They then ran through the Sectionaltournament, winning three games by a combined score of25-2.

That got everyone thinking, is this the worse we haveever seen Section VII soccer? Is it that these other teamsare so bad they just make Chazy look that good?

The answer was no. The Eagles then went on to beat Sec-tion X representative Heuvelton 6-0 to advance to theClass D final four in Middletown. Their first match-up was

a 1-0 win against the only team the experts thought stood achance to beat them, second-ranked Poland.

This game was not as close as the score sounds. Chazydominated the shot chart, time of possession, possession inthe opponents’ end, corner kicks, 50/50 balls — every-where in the scorebook and on the field. The only placethey didn’t have an edge was saves, as Poland keeperMitch Jones single-handedly kept his team in the gamemaking saves that no other goalie has made against the Ea-gles. Despite a drastic miscue on his part, Jones was in noway the blame for that loss.

Then came the finals, a 4-0 coronation ceremony againstFort Ann out of Section II.

After these 80 minutes, gone were the memories of a 1-0game that was dominated by the Eagles but won by Hamil-ton one year ago. This team had a goal to get back andavenge that loss and, while not having to go throughHamilton (which did not make it out of its own section),did just that.

It is the sixth state title for the Eagles, putting them inrarified air. Only three other teams have as many or moretitles, with Southold and Shenedehowa having six andPittsford Mendon seven.

It also puts head coach Rob McAuliffe in rarified air.While not alone at the top of the mountain, he stands withJoe Borrosh and Mike Campisi as the only two coaches to

manage six teams to a state title.However, McAuliffe broughtsome rocks up the mountain withhim in hopes of making it a littlehigher by collecting a seventhstate title. As he said, their goalwill always be to win a state title— that’s every year.

But this championship also putthis team, captained by BrandonLaurin and Nathan Reynolds, inrarified air. As the game wounddown, the mumble of “greatestChazy team ever” started. McAuliffe said that they mayvery well be, using the 2005 team as an example. Thatteam scored 164 goals and had 21 shutouts. This team al-lowed nine goals all season and was only tested twice —once by a Class B school that was a preseason favorite inSection VII and again by the second-ranked team in thestate (based on the scoreboard). In Chazy, the debate hasbegun.

What cannot be debated is that this, more than any oth-er, was Chazy’s year. They had the team, they had thecoaching and now they have to sew in a sixth star to theuniforms.

Congratulations, Eagles.

Chazy Eagles head and shoulders above the rest

Gaudette sentenced in meth arrestBy Stephen [email protected]

PLATTSBURGH – They cooked meth on what appeared tobe a quiet side street in the City of Plattsburgh.

All three were arrested. All three pleaded guilty to relat-ed charges.

Recently, one of them was sentenced to state prison.Jaime H. Gaudette, 36, was sentenced to four-and-a-half

years in prison with two years post-release supervision. ThePlattsburgh man was further ordered to pay $375 in manda-tory surcharges and provide a DNA sample.

The three men faced charges of second-degree criminalpossession of a controlled substance, unlawful manufactureof methamphetamine and second-degree conspiracy.

“Those who choose to produce meth here must be pre-pared to face the consequences when they are caught,” Col-lyer said.

Gaudette pleaded guilty to third-degree criminal posses-sion of a controlled substance on Sept. 14 in front of ClintonCounty Court Judge Patrick McGill.

On Oct. 22, Peryea pleaded guilty to criminal possessionof a controlled substance.

PLATTSBURGH — For some, heating their homes duringwinter is a luxury they cannot afford.

Many of them work, yet low pay, a rising cost-of-living,soaring energy costs and other factors make it nearly impos-sible to cover all the bills.

The Home Energy Assistance Program (HEAP) works toensure families don’t go cold over the winter. HEAP beganaccepting applications for benefits this week.

“Rising energy prices and colder temperatures will makeit even harder for many low-income families and senior cit-izens to afford their heating bills this winter,” said ElizabethBerlin, Executive Deputy Commissioner of the State Office

of Temporary and Disability Assistance.HEAP, overseen by the State Office of Temporary and Dis-

ability Assistance, provides funding to low-income and eld-erly New Yorkers to help keep their homes warm in the win-ter months.

“HEAP will provide sorely needed assistance to over 1million New York state households, enabling them to keeptheir heat on when the cold weather sets in,” Berlin said.

HEAP, a federally funded program, exists to assist eligi-ble households in meeting their energy needs.

The maximum regular HEAP benefit a household can re-ceive this winter is $650.

HEAP eligibility is based on income and household size.A family of four with an annual household income of $49,333may qualify for a HEAP benefit.

Households that qualify for HEAP can receive one regu-

lar benefit per season. But households may further be eligi-ble for an emergency HEAP benefit if they are in danger ofrunning out of fuel or having their utility service shut off.

HEAP benefits will be accepted beginning Jan. 2, 2013.Applicants should apply early, because HEAP benefits are

awarded on a first-come, first-serve basis. Applications forbenefits will be accepted through March 15, 2013.

New York residents interested in learning if they are eli-gible for HEAP and other benefits should go online at my-Benefits.ny.gov and answer a few questions.

Last year alone, 1.5 million households received HEAP.

PLATTSBURGH — For years, Sue Coon-rod wanted a yarn and gift store with a per-sonality of its own.

She envisioned an old building with char-acter, big front windows and a central loca-tion.

First there was an education career to fin-ish, but now that she has retired, Coonrodhas seen her dream through to reality andhas been enjoying success in the City ofPlattsburgh where she opened PlattsburghYarn & Gifts at 16 Brinkerhoff Street.

“I wanted a place where knitters could gettogether,” Coonrod said.

Coonrod spent her educational career incollege relations, teaching art and specialeducation and as a special education admin-istrator and school principal. She retiredfrom Beekmantown Central School.

She was passionate about her career in ed-ucation, but she also had other dreams forherself.

“My daughter is an avid knitter and I haveknitted all my life,” she said. “You have todrive to Lake Placid or go across the lake togo to a yarn store.”

Coonrod had been in business previouslywhen she had run her own shop in Essex in1997. Also an artist, she sold some of her pot-tery and paintings there and loved workingfor herself.

She was determined to open a yarn storein Plattsburgh and wanted to be downtown.

“I was able to get my first choice in loca-tions, right across from the Arts Center,”Coonrod said.

Early on as she set up her store, she foundvintage fixtures that had been used in a gen-eral store in Vermont. When she went to re-finish the floor, the flooring was on sale.

She asked her daughter, Rosie, and friendswhat to fill the store with, what kind of yarnsto carry. She conducted an informal surveyon how to set everything up.

“Yarns have different weights,” Coonrodsaid. “They are made of different fibers. Mydaughter said when she goes into a yarnstore she has a project in mind and likes tosee it arranged by weight.”

So Coonrod started with that, though withher artist’s eye it also became about color.

“Then, out of the blue, I received an email

from Gretchen Barton, one of only 10 TKGACertified Master Knitters in New Yorkstate,” Coonrod said. “She had relocated toPlattsburgh and was very interested in myvenue. She now offers knitting classes andworkshops at Plattsburgh Yarn & Gifts.”

Coonrod’s daughter set up the web site,which she said has been extremely useful forcustomers and class registration.

She chose her yarns for their high qualityand reasonable prices, with brands that in-clude Berroco, Cascade, Plymouth, LambsPride, Baby Wool, Rowan and James C. Brett.

A local fiber artist named Heidi Fortschalso supplies the store with yarn she diesand spins herself.

“She uses wool, alpaca, even a little cash-mere,” Coonrod said. “I also carry Frog TreeYarns.”

Local handmade items at the store are tru-ly a family affair with her mother, MargaretMcCaw, creating knitting needle organizers,tote bags, aprons and table runners, and herniece, Lacey Ahrent selling framed localphotos and photo greeting cards.

Renee Hall, a former colleague, sewsquilted knitting bags and Julie Fredette, an-other former colleague, offers felted pursesand bags.

Coonrod offers her artwork.She has enjoyed running the business so

far and said the store has done well.“I was ready to work hard and do some-

thing for myself, and the pieces fell intoplace,” she said.

Plattsburgh Yarn & Gifts is located at 16Brinkerhoff Street in Plattsburgh and can befound online at:plattsburghyarnandgifts.com.

CHAMPLAIN — As soon as the ChazyCentral Rural School student hit water, hisboat imploded around him.

The student from Northeastern ClintonCentral School sank only a few feet away.

But one student, in a small cardboard boxcovered in duct tape managed to paddleacross the pool as his peers shouted “Dy-lan!”

“This is a problem-solving activities, andthe students have limited supplies and mostcome up with the best possible design,” saidNortheastern Clinton Central School Tech-nology Teacher Cole Moon. “Problem-solv-ing is one of the biggest challenges peoplehave to face in life.”

Students from both schools built card-board boats as part of their technology class-es and then participated in boat races atNortheastern Clinton Central School.

“This is a team-building exercise,” saidChazy Central Rural School TechnologyTeacher Kyle Syck.

As racers and pit crews entered the poolarea, they lined their cardboard boats - somelarge, others small, and yet others withwooden and cardboard attachments to helpthem float – along the shallow end of the 45-feet by 75-feet 190,383-gallon pool.

They huddled for a safety meeting asMoon issued instructions.

“If you hear a whistle you are probably do-ing something unsafe. Every racer will havea life jacket. No standing.”

A lifeguard sitting on a flotation device setup in the middle of the deep end of the pool.

Then, the doors opened, the noise increas-ing to a dull roar as spectators filtered intothe pool area and surrounded three sides ofthe pool.

The first heat, consisting of four racers,placed their cardboard boats in, two imme-diately collapsing around the racers, a thirdsinking seconds after the race started andthe fourth, carrying Dylan, crossing the fin-ish line as students from both schoolscheered.

As the third heat began, students in a gi-ant boat paddled furiously, sinking a fewfeet from the edge of the pool.

Suddenly, the crowd began screaming,“Brandon,” as a student in small boatcrossed the finish line.

A total of three boats in the third heatwhen one began to sink, leaving pieces ofcardboard in its wake. A pair of studentsdove into the water to pull the boat’s re-mains across the finish line.

In the end, the smaller boats outlasted thelarge ones, soggy an unable to compete inthe final rounds.

“We didn’t have one boat that floated,”Syck said.

He said the project helps students gothrough the engineering process, as well aslearn about buoyancy and weight distribu-tion.

“I think this helps keep the students inter-ested in their projects,” Moon said.

Brandon Laurin, a senior at Chazy CentralRural School, appreciated that the twoschools worked on the projects together.

“It was fun,” he said. “Not just getting outof school, but doing something that relatesto school.”

Jeck Genier, a junior at Chazy, learnedabout the various types of boat bottoms andmaritime history.

“I look forward to next year.”

Fall sports season ends with familiar phrase: Chazy are state champsBy Keith [email protected]

MIDDLETOWN — After the final horn tothe 2012 Class D soccer season sounded,David Poitras proclaimed that the missionwas accomplished.

“We knew that we had to come here forone thing, to get our trophy back,” he said.

The Chazy Eagles varsity boys soccer teamdid just that, scoring a 4-0 victory over theFort Ann Cardinals of Section II for theirsixth New York State Public High SchoolAthletic Association title since 2004.

“We came in with one goal and that was toget back to this field and win on Sunday,”head coach Rob McAuliffe said. “I am veryproud of these boys for doing that.”

“This game was everything that I haveever wanted to play for,” said sophomoreJosh Barriere, who scored three goals andwas named the tournament MVP. “It meanteverything to win for me, my teammates andour fans.”

Barriere scored the second, third andfourth goals of the game. In the 29th minute,he collected the rebound off a shot generat-ed by a Craig Botten direct kick for a 2-0 lead.

“We were so physical in the air and wepractice those all of the time and we knowthat we can get physical and finish,” Bottensaid.

Barriere struck again in the 54th minute,

after Poitras had carried the ball deep intoFort Ann’s zone. Poitras was dispossessed ofthe ball, which bounced back to Barriere,who fired a shot that bounced off of thecrossbar and behind the goal line.

“I was just trying to get in as close as Icould to the net and get past as many defend-ers as I could,” Poitras said. “When the ballwent behind me and I saw Josh was steppingup, I just wanted to get down and give himand open shot.”

In the 70th minute, Pelton took a cornerkick that went over the arms of Fort Anngoalie Jonah Gould and found the head ofBarriere for his third goal and a 4-0 lead.

“I was just in the right place at the righttime, and all I wanted to do was hit the ballright,” Barriere said.

“We had Brandon who scored the majori-ty of our goals this season, but we knew thatother players would have to step up in crit-ical times and that is what Josh did,” McAu-

liffe said.Laurin was held scoreless in the champi-

onship game but did have the goal that gotthe Eagles there against Poland.

“I would have like to have gone out witha goal in my final game for this team,” Lau-rin said. “But today, everyone played like anall star.”

The Eagles’ first goal of the game came offanother Pelton kick, finding the head ofNathan Reynolds in the 26th minute.

“We had a lot of people working hard tocreate an opportunity,” Reynolds said. “Isaw Nelson getting ready to serve the ballback in and I just wanted to get my headdown and put the ball on frame.”

The Eagles finished with 28 shots, 20 ofwhich were on net with Gould making 15saves and John Allen one. Kyle Bissonettemade a pair of saves for the Eagles as FortAnn had three total shots, but was very ac-tive in getting to balls that entered the penal-ty area.

“I knew that they would want to counterattack on us,” Bissonette said. “I wanted totake away anything that I could get to, andI knew that would shut down their offense.”

The Eagles (2004, 2005, 2009, 2010 and2012) joined Southold and Shenendehowa(1988, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 2005) as six-time state champions, now trailing onlyPittsford Mendon, which has won sevenstate titles (1979, 1982, 1989, 1991, 1997,1998, 2005).

Greatest Eagles ever?Dominating 2012 championship season brings back memories, comparisons to 2005 squad

MIDDLETOWN — In one of the mostdominant seasons witnessed in Section VIIand state history, the Chazy Eagles capturedtheir sixth New York State Public HighSchool Athletic Association Class D state ti-tle with a 4-0 win over Section II’s Fort AnnNov. 18 in Middletown.

“You have a great group of boys that youcan all be proud of,” head coach Rob McAu-liffe said to fans during the championshiptrophy presentation. “This may be the bestteam to have ever played at Chazy.”

The Eagles allowed only nine goals duringthe season in capturing their sixth title, fourin their opening tournament of the seasonand three to Class B Beekmantown, the onlyblemish on their 21-0-1 record, which wasrecorded as a tie but a game Chazy won in ashootout.

“We’re definitely going to go down as oneof the best teams in the history of thisschool,” senior captain Nathan Reynolds,who opened the scoring in the 26th minutewhen a Nelson Pelton corner kick was

cleared back out to Pelton, who crossed itback in, said.

“Everyone talks about the 2005 team as thebest one at our school, but this one is defi-nitely in the discussion,” McAuliffe said.

“I know that 2005 was a great team, but Ibelieve that we are the best one,” Nelson Pel-ton said. “After the bad loss last year, wewere all depressed, but I think that was themain motivation for this season, at least itwas for me.”

“We went undefeated and outscored everyteam by at least three goals except two(Beekmantown, Poland). This has to be oneof the best ever,” senior captain BrandonLaurin said.

“This is the best team that I have ever beena part of,” Nolan Rogers said. “We have tobe one or two.”

“I think that we are there with them,”David Poitras said. “If there was any way toplay it, I think that a game with the 2005team would be a really good one.”

One for the other ring finger: McAuliffe tied atop state title listBy Keith [email protected]

MIDDLETOWN — Rob McAuliffe is nowone of the three most decorated coaches inNew York State soccer history.

With a 4-0 win by the Chazy Eagles againstthe Fort Ann Cardinals Nov. 18 in theNYSPHSAA Class D state championshipsgame, McAuliffe skippered his sixth titleteam since 2004, with other trophies comingin 2005, 2007, 2009 and 2010.

McAuliffe was also the first to make surethat the entire Chazy community shared inthe glory of another state title.

“I want to thank all of our fansand community for comingdown here and traveling withthe team throughout the sea-son,” McAuliffe said during thechampionship ceremony. “Youhave a great group of boys thatyou can all be proud of.”

McAuliffe said he feels thededication that the current play-ers see from their community tothe sport has always been a keyto the success of Chazy soccer.

“They say it takes a village to raise achild,” he said. “It also does to produce

teams like this. This result comesfrom the effort of the students, theparents, the school and the townalong with the coaches. This ismuch larger than just this team.”

That commitment from the com-munity feeds the students, McAu-liffe said, to accomplish greatthings.

“All of these kids work so veryhard and while they are happy towin this title for their team, they

are also proud to add to the history of ourprogram,” he said. “They are happy to makethe alumni and people of Chazy proud.”

McAuliffe also pointed to the tradition ofEagle soccer.

“You had George Brendler and Tom Tre-gan who built this program and were greatcoaches for Chazy,” he said.

Chazy stands only behind Pittsford Men-don (7) in team titles. If that title is won un-der McAuliffe, it would put him alone atopthe state’s coaching title list.

For his part, McAuliffe is hoping it doeshappen, and soon.

“I do not think that there will be a time,anytime soon, where our goal will be any-thing less than to win a state championship,”he said.

Anyone who has spent much time in the woods un-derstands that nature is very fickle. In fact, it isquite often downright contrary.

Possibly, this is the true natural attraction, as an everchanging, environment is certainly much more interestingthan a static state.

Over my years in the woods, I’ve stumbled across a widecollection of natural oddities. However, quite possibly thestrangest incident I’ve ever witnessed occurred while bowhunting in the Southern Tier near Cobleskill.

I was sitting in a tree-stand on top of a long ridge thatlooms over Cobleskill Reservoir. The small pond is a popularstop over for Canada Geese during their migration south.

It was early bow season, and I was comfortably ensconcedin a stand situated atop a long ridgeline locally known asDow Hollow. The morning was crisp, the air still, and thewoods were quiet.

Before a glint of sun was evident in the morning sky, the si-lence was shattered by a colophony of geese taking off fromthe waters below.

Peering through leaf bare oaks and towering white pines, Icould make out a long dark mass of geese taking to the air;honking and barking on a southern journey.

As the great flock flew over the ridgeline, the big birdswere barely clearing the treetops, and the noise resoundedthrough the forest. The birds were flying over the ridgetop solow; I could hear their powerful wing beats.

Soon the birds were out of sight and the silence returned. Icould hear the grey squirrels searching for acorns, otherwisethe woods were still and quiet.

I listened intently while waiting intently for the telltalesound of whitetails returning up the ridge from the fields farbelow.

But there were none. The only sound was the chattering ofmy teeth, as I suffered through the long, cold lapse of timebetween first light, and a warm sun.There are no words to de-scribe the agony of waiting for the warm morning sun tosnake down from the treetops to your stand. Undeniably, it isthe coldest part of the day, a slow misery.

As I sat shivering in the stand, I heard a lone bark. It camefrom a short distance down the ridge. I heard it again, andafter a prolonged rustling of leaves, it appeared to be gettingcloser.

The noise continued, and offto my right, I could barelymake out the outline of some-thing running along the forestfloor. It was coming my way,and it was traveling fast.

Finally, I could see what ap-peared to be a large Canadagoose. It was running and asjust as it appeared to get air-borne; a large turkey flew outof a nearby pine.

The turkey hit the goosefrom behind, square in theshoulders and knocked it tothe ground. There were feath-ers everywhere, as the birds got back on their feet. Before myeyes, the two birds faced off and a heavy weight fight brokeout. While the turkey puffed its chest, gobbled and displayedits impressive fan.

Across the leave littered ring, the goose stretched out itsneck, lowered its head, and hissed like a mad cobra.

The turkey continued the attack, and soon it chased thegoose over the ridge and out of sight. However, I heard thebattle continue for quite some time.

After waiting for the whitetails that never showed up, I gotout of my stand and followed a trail of feathers down theridge. However, there was no sign of either the victor or thevanquished.

Later, after relating the battle to an old birding friend, hesurmised the goose likely clipped a wing on a treetop and fellto the ground.

“Geese,” he explained, “need a lot of room to get airborne.”And without a clear runway in the thick woods, it would bedifficult to take off.

Compounding the matter, turkeys are notoriously territori-al. He surmised that the big tom likely saw the comparablysized goose as a threat, and attacked it.

Although I’ve seen many unusual sights in the woods, thecombination of two heavyweights going at it in a naturalring, in the early morning light, has always struck me as themost exciting and unusual of all.

However, I am always interested in learning of other suchincidents, and if you’ve got a story; I’d be happy to hear it.

Outdoor News EditorSteve Piatt wins Communications Award

ELIZABETHTOWN — Steve Piatt, editor of the popu-lar New York Outdoor News, was recognized at recentNew York State Council of Trout Unlimited General Meet-ing for his outstanding contributions to sportsmen andconservationists, and proclaimed the winner of the 2012Professional Communications Award. This yearly awardis reserved for journalists who have made major contri-butions to New York’s sportsmen and women.

Editor of the New York Outdoors News since its found-ing in 2004, Piatt was cited for his exemplary service, in-tegrity and leadership in bringing current news of theoutdoors to a wide audience in New York and neighbor-ing states. With a circulation of over 33,000, the OutdoorNews has grown to become the premier news source foroutdoor recreation in the region.

Trout Unlimited Council Immediate Past Chair DeeMaciejewski noted that the paper plays an important rolein the legislative halls in Albany, where its consistent sup-port of outdoors activities and conservation has been asignificant voice for sportsmen and women.

Walter Trzcienski, President of the Lake ChamplainTrout Unlimited chapter that sponsored Piatt for theaward, said “Steve has been a constant spokesman for thebest in outdoor interests, be it fishing, hunting or otherthings we do in New York. All sportsmen join me in con-gratulating him on this achievement.”

DEC fisheries explained that it is not unusual for fish to have such mark-ings, especially as juveniles.

Mental Illnessfrom page 1

doesn’t want to accept it, and that only makes itworse,” Doh-Carter said. “You start to feel nonhu-man, like an alien. Sometimes people run aroundwith these feelings for years before anything is done,and sometimes they kill themselves first.”

During the video, those diagnosed with a mentalillness spoke of hiding in a parking lot until a spouseleft the home so the individual could get back in bedand sleep the day away, being high as a kite in themorning and suicidal at night or having to sitthrough an exorcism by the family priest because thefamily found out about the voices in the individual’shead. Individuals on the video were diagnosed withbipolar disorder, schizophrenia, borderline person-ality disorder, post traumatic stress disorder, clini-cal depression and more.

Besides the impact of the disease on themselvesand their loved ones, those in the video, and Doh-Carter, stressed the damage the misperceptions re-lated to mental illness cause.

“I lost my whole life and I felt like a loser and so-ciety would not accept me,” Doh-Carter said. “Iturned to drugs to put a cloud around my head so itwouldn’t be so painful. I was high all the time, andbefore I knew it, it took over my life.”

It took Doh-Carter eight years to start over again.Individuals on the video stressed the importance

of medication with mental illness, the same as itwould be if someone had a heart defect. Sometimesthe medications carry side effects, but they are out-weighed by the benefits.

But Doh-Carter even runs into troubles there, withinsurance companies often refusing to cover medica-tions that help stabilize her.

Besides medication, she benefits from a highlystructured day and exercise.

Still, many days she cannot leave her house.“The worst thing about mental illness is it’s in

your brain,” she said.Sadly, Doh-Carter said, many mentally ill people

need help but are behind closed doors giving up.“We could use some support,” she said. “You

might change someone’s life. And what would real-ly make it better is if society accepted that brains arevery complicated and what works for one personmay not work for the next.

“It is hard. It is really hard.”

Diabetesfrom page 1

families gathered in front of PlattsburghState’s Hawkins Hall dressed in blue to joina human circle in honor of World DiabetesDay.

Later, at dusk, the building itself was il-luminated in blue to raise awareness of di-abetes.

Diabetes is a group of metabolic diseasesin which a person has high blood sugar be-cause the pancreas does not produceenough insulin or the cells do not respondto the insulin that is produced.

Diabetes is a leading cause of blindness,kidney failure, heart attack, stroke and am-putation.

World Diabetes Day is a global event thatunites millions of people trying to get theword out about the dangers of diabetes inmore than 160 countries.

“We want to help raise awareness of dia-betes and the complications brought on bydiabetes,” said Jill Folsom, an adjunct nurs-ing faculty member at Plattsburgh Stateand a volunteer with the International Di-abetes Federation. “A third of the Medicarebudget goes to diabetes.”

Plattsburgh State’s nursing club spon-sored the event.

“They see firsthand the number of pa-tients fighting this disease as well as its de-bilitating complications during their clini-cal rotations both in the hospital andthroughout the community,” Folsom said.

Alissa Shinder, a nursing student atPlattsburgh State, pointed out that the obe-sity rate is increasing and obesity is a major risk factor for developing diabetes.

“There is a high percentage of children being diagnosed with diabetes,” Shinder said.The number of people living with diabetes has increased considerably over the past 30 years. In 1985, an estimated 30 mil-

lion people worldwide had the disease. Today, that figure exceeds 300 million, according to the International Diabetes Foun-dation and World Health Organization.

There are three main types of diabetes.Type 1 results from the body’s failure to produce insulin. Type 2 results from insulin resistance, a condition in which cells

fail to use insulin properly, sometimes combined with an absolute insulin deficiency. The third form, gestational diabetes, oc-curs when pregnant women with a previous diagnosis of diabetes develop a high glucose level.

Sir Frederick Grant Banting was a Canadian medical scientist, doctor and Nobel Laureate and is noted as one of the maindiscoverers of insulin.

Meghan Ketcham, another nursing student at Plattsburgh State, said it is important to raise awareness about the disease.“We need to further prevent something that is preventable,” she said.
