PLATTSBURGH — The city of Plattsburgh has approved a temporary change in thetraffic pattern for the section of Rugar Street from Memorial Hall to Sandborn AvenueExtension. The change will be in effect Saturday, Aug. 28, from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m.

According to the State University of New York at Plattsburgh, the traffic patternchange is requested to ease traffic congestion as college students move into dormitories.The one-way traffic pattern will ensure the safety of students and their families as theymove into the residence halls, the majority of which are located within a four-blockstretch of Rugar Street.

Motorists traveling along Rugar will only be able to travel in a westerly direction to-ward Plattsburgh High School. Those traveling on Sanborn, directly behind the college,will be permitted to drive in one direction only, from Rugar to Park Avenue.

PLATTSBURGH — Logan Franks has his eyes on the prize.The 22-year-old Plattsburgh resident and Keeseville native is

coming down from his high of placing 11th in the Ford IronmanCompetition in Lake Placid July 24. Logan’s placement, which alsoincluded scoring the best completion time in his age bracket, haslanded him a spot to compete in the World Ironman Champi-onships in Kona, Hawaii.

The win was one that Logan had been hoping for, but somethinghe didn’t know he could achieve considering he has only been com-peting in triathlons for about a year.

“I was hoping to be in the top 10 overall, win my age group andbreak the 10-year course record for my age group,” said Logan,who’s a student at the State University of New York at Plattsburgh.“I pulled away with all of them except placing in the top 10. And,I only missed that by two minutes.”

Logan, who is a member of U.S. Marine Corps Reserves, creditshis time in the service for preparing him for what can often be gru-eling training.

“It definitely gave me the discipline to be able to stick with it,that’s for sure,” he said.

Logan returned from a tour duty Iraq in April 2009, and prior tohis return, he had one thing in mind — and it wasn’t competing intriathlons.

“I was thinking about looking into joining the Navy Seals, so Istarted swimming to practice,” said Logan. “I was swimming everyday toward the end of my deployment ... then I was talking to afriend about Ironman. I went on-line and researched it, I thoughtit looked extremely challenging.”

That challenge was where Logan decided to set his sights.“When I got home, I dropped like $6,000 within two days from

the money I made overseas. I bought a new bike and started train-ing literally two days after I got home,” said Logan.

Enlisting the help of Scott Bombard as his coach, Logan subject-ed himself to training at last six to eight hours a day, many of whichconsisted of 100-mile bike rides. Many times when Logan felt hewas “going to die,” he reached down and pushed himself harder.

“Training is definitely the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my lifeand that’s coming from someone in the Marine Reserves,” laughedLogan.

Leading up to the Lake Placid Ironman, Logan participated inshorter triathlons in Burlington, Vt., and Bristol, N.H., pushinghimself to the limit each time. The Bristol race was just a week af-ter the Burlington event, leaving Logan to finish the event evenwith blisters on his feet.

“I’ve done a lot better than I thought I would do,” admitted Lo-gan. “I was just doing it at first to see if I could do it. As I startedtraining more and more, it became not so much if I could finish,but how fast I could do it.”

Logan’s determination is something which makes his father,Dean Franks of Keeseville, beam with pride.

“I broke down in tears when he crossed the finish line,” saidDean. “He said to me, ‘Dad, I’m going to Kona.’ I’m so proud.”

Dean is now in the process of organizing fundraiser to help sendLogan to Kona in October. Most recently, the Plattsburgh MooseLodge hosted a benefit featuring auctions of items donated by areabusinesses.

Businesses like Mountain Riders, Loreman’s, TwinState and Kin-ney Drugs, among others helped out with the event. Donna’s HairSalon and Arnold’s Grocery in Logan’s hometown are among oth-

ers that have showed they’re behind Logan 100 percent, he said.“I couldn’t have done this without the community or my fami-

ly backing me,” said Logan, who also credited Operation InjuredSoldier as a major supporter. “It’s awesome to have not only thebest family in the world but also the best community to grow upin and have these people having your back.”

As for Logan’s thoughts on Kona? He’s keeping it simple.“I hope it’s going to be a good race, but anything can happen,”

he said. “Either way, it’s been a fun ride.”Those interested in helping support Logan in his participation

in the World Ironman Championships may send donation in careof him to 1821 Main St., Keeseville N.Y. 12944.

Logan Franks and his father, Dean, stand together at a benefit held lastweek for Logan at the Plattsburgh Moose Lodge. Logan is raising mon-ey to participate in the World Ironman Championships in Kona, Hawaii.

PLATTSBURGH — When SamuelBartlett was born, his parents were un-aware of a condition lurking withinhim that would impede him from liv-ing the life of what most would con-sider a typical child.

His condition, known as 1p36 Dele-tion Syndrome, wasn’t realized untilmore than five weeks after he wasborn to his parents, Shannon andSteve Bartlett. And, even then, the al-phanumeric jumble left Samuel’s par-ents with more questions than an-swers.

“When I got the diagnosis, the ge-neticist came in and told me what hehad and handed me a piece of paperthat she printed off the Internet,” re-called Shannon. “It was the most neg-ative piece of paper you could havebeen handed, with medical jargon Ididn’t even understand.”

“It had a child who was probablyone of the worst-case scenarios of 1p36and just a few blurbs,” said Steve.

The medical community didn’thave much information about 1p36when Samuel was born, and, morethan three years later, the same is stilltrue.

“There’s not a lot of infor-mation, there are no booksabout it,” said Steve.“There’s such a lack of infor-mation and knowledge outthere about what this condi-tion is.”

“It was such a big questionmark, which was prettyscary,” he added.

What is known about 1p36is the condition occurs in onein every 5,000 to 10,000births. That information,compiled by a nonprofit or-ganization known as 1p36Deletion Support andAwareness, shows 1p36 is“the most common chromo-some deletion” that can becharacterized by “moderateto severe intellectual disabil-ity, delayed growth, limitedspeech ability and distinctfacial features.”

In Samuel’s particularcase, 1p36 has affected hismotor skills, speech develop-ment and hearing. However,how he has been affected isn’t uniformwith how others with 1p36 are, saidShannon.

“People that have the syndrome,they do eventually walk independent-

ly and have some kind of communica-tion whether it’s sign language or ver-bal with an alternative communica-tion device, but it seems to takelonger,” explained Shannon. “Not allkids who have 1p36 are the same,

though. Some kids haveseizures, some don’t,some have eating prob-lems and need a feed-ing tube, some don’t.”

“Sammie wears hear-ing aids, but in somekids, their hearing iscompletely fine,” shecontinued. “Some-where in his missinggenetic information isobviously some part ofhis hearing.”

Because so much isstill unknown about1p36, Shannon andSteve are behind effortsto fund research andprovide educationalmaterials for familieswith loved ones whohave the condition. Thetwo have gotten onboard with a movementto get a $50,000 grantfor 1p36 Deletion Sup-port and Awarenessthrough the Pepsi Re-

fresh Project. The process involvesmembers of the public voting on-lineand through text messaging for theirproject. If the project is among the top10 voted for at the end of the month,

the project will be funded.“The whole 1p36 community would

just be ecstatic,” Shannon said of theproject being funded. “Being able tocreate something that could maybegive a family a little bit of hope at whatcould be possibly the worst time intheir life I think would be fantastic.”

The money, said Shannon, would bealso be used to design and build infor-mational exhibit for national confer-ences on 1p36, which are critical tokeeping up-to-speed on research ofthe condition.

“I think it would just do a lot to easethe minds of a lot of people just toknow what they’re dealing with,”Steve said of how the funding wouldbe used.

If the project isn’t funded, all hopeis not lost, said Shannon.

“We’ll just continue to do smallfundraisers until we get there,” saidShannon. “If we don’t make it, at leastwe’re raising awareness. We’re gettingthe word out there.”

(Editor’s Note: To vote for the 1p36 Dele-tion Support and Awareness project on-line,visit www.refresheverything.com/1p36.More information about the condition can befound on-line at www.1p36dsa.org.)

PLATTSBURGH — The Clinton-Essex-Franklin Library System is the recipient of a$255,430 grant administered by the New YorkState Library. The project will equip a mobiletraining van to help area residents improvetheir computer and Internet skills and findemployment. The grant is part of a $9.5 mil-lion grant obtained by New York — the largestto date in the Federal Recovery Act’s PublicComputing Centers category nationwide.

“This grant allows the library system andthe local libraries to not only continue to dowhat we’ve been doing for job seekers but alsoto expand our services,” said CEFLS directorEwa Jankowska. “Libraries are able to providepublic computers and free Internet access andhelp to the public, with evening and weekendhours when other agencies are closed, andnow they will be able to offer more direct helpand training. It also allows us to bring broad-band Internet access to areas where it doesn’texist today.

The local grant project, entitled “New YorkComputer Centers:Broadbandexpress@yourlibrary” will providedigital literacy skills training and support ca-reer development. Using a mobile van com-plete with computer workstations, on-boardInternet access, career resources and trainingstaff, libraries will extend their ability to pro-vide free rural broadband to patrons over alarge geographic area in upstate New York.

The Plattsburgh-based CEFLS will partnerwith the Adirondack Community Action Pro-grams Inc. of Essex County to offer free train-ing at library and other community sites on aregular schedule, beginning in early 2011. Thepartnership between the library system andACAP, which operates the OneWorkSourceBusiness and Employment Center in EssexCounty, will both advance people’s computerand Internet skills and connect them with pro-grams and resources which can help them ob-tain and maintain employment.

“Working with public libraries makes agreat deal of sense for us,” said Ellen Gordon,director of the ACAP One-Stop. “And using amobile outreach vehicle will allow us to tailorour services to the individual and the commu-nity in which they live. We’re excited about itand we see it as a great benefit to residents ofthe area.”

A total of 34 Public Computer Centers havebeen funded throughout New York State tostrengthen public computing access and sup-port regional workforce development trainingthrough community agencies, small business-es and local partnerships. New York’s success-ful Round I application has brought $9.5 mil-lion from the American Recovery and Rein-vestment Act stimulus funding opportunity toNew York. The grants will help libraries, li-brary systems and a participating communitycollege to help provide connectivity, training

and partnerships with local programs to pro-mote employment, re-training and job recov-ery.

“The Public Computing Centers, fundedand supported under the Broadband Technol-ogy Opportunities Program, are designed tobring the fruits of high speed connectivity toeveryone,” said New York State librarianBernard Margolis. “Many parts of New YorkState will, for the first time, be able to experi-ence the bounty of communications and con-tent available on-line. The Public ComputingCenters are a primary outpost for free publicaccess to a wide array of broadband services.As part of a highly effective network, thePCCs and the libraries of which they are apart, will continue their critical role as a hubfor community life and service.”

During a two-year grant period, the NewYork State Library, a unit of the Office of Cul-tural Education within the New York State Ed-ucation Department, estimates the projectswill serve more than 6 million residentsthrough new and expanded public computercenters and mobile vans created with thegrant funds. The U.S. Department of Com-merce National Telecommunications and In-formation Administration provided the grantopportunity through the American Reinvest-ment and Recovery Act Broadband Technolo-gy Opportunities Program.

PLATTSBURGH — Those wanting to learnabout cultures from far away places don’thave to travel great distances thanks to a pro-gram at the State University of New York atPlattsburgh.

Partners In Cross-Cultural Learning,sponsored by the university’s InternationalStudent Service Office, is a program thatmatches newly arriving international stu-dents with volunteers from the community.

Program coordinator Michelle St. Onge,Peru, explained the program provides stu-dents with “an authentic experience of life inthe United States,” while local residents aregiven the opportunity “to glimpse into dif-ferent cultures through interaction with thestudents.”

“It gives people here an opportunity to re-late to people from different cultures,” saidSt. Onge, “and it allows students to becomemore integrated into American culture,which is slightly different off campus than itis on campus.”

Through “casual, social exchange,” inter-national students establish a “friendly andsupportive link” to the community, said St.Onge. Each semester, students are matchedwith community residents and meet aboutonce a month for informal activities such asfamily dinners, trips to the movies or casualoutings.

The PICL program doesn’t require the in-ternational students to be housed by PICLcommunity volunteers as they live on cam-pus, noted St. Onge. However, communityvolunteers — who go through a required ap-

plication process — are encouraged to wel-come students into their homes to get an im-pression of day-to-day life in an Americanfamily.

“It gives them a chance to see the inside ofan American home and see how individualsin an American family relate to one another,”said St. Onge. “Even simple things like whereyou put your dishes or what your restroomslook like are things that are very differentthat we can take for granted.”

The experience is one that educates stu-dents and community volunteers while hav-ing fun at the same time, said St. Onge.

“It’s getting to experience your own cul-ture through someone else’s eyes,” she said.“And, it’s a way to share your own experi-ences, your life and the things you enjoy do-ing with someone else.”

“It’s all about fun,” she added.PICL also coordinates various social activ-

ities throughout the semester such as bowl-ing outings and sledding parties. Currently,there are more than 50 volunteer and inter-national student partnerships through thePICL program.

“We’d like more community partners toparticipate because, right now, we only haveenough to get the new incoming studentspaired up,” said St. Onge, who noted the pro-gram sometimes struggles with communityinterest. “Sometimes we get returning stu-dents who would like to have a new partnerand we’d like to have enough partners to re-match them. We’re always looking for morevolunteers.”

This Saturday, Aug. 28, an informationalmeeting about the PICL program will be heldin the auditorium of the Plattsburgh PublicLibrary, 19 Oak St. The meeting will begin at4 p.m. Applications to become a PICL com-munity volunteer will be made availableduring the meeting and will continue to be

PLATTSBURGH — The Plattsburgh Ro-tary Club has found a fun and unique wayto raise money for their organization.

For the first time, the nonprofit organiza-tion which helps raise money for other or-ganizations will host a “Bed Race,” Satur-day, Sept. 11, at 3:15 p.m.

Looking for a different type of fundrais-er, members of the club spoke with otherclubs in the country, and with ideas frommembers Steve Fredericks and Keith Tyo, aplan was put together.

Teams, which consist of five participantsand two optional alternates, must have oneperson in a bed, with two people pushing atthe headboard, and two at the footboard.Races will be held at City Hall Place.

“They will race it up to a halfway finishline of approximately 30 yards,” explainedPlattsburgh Rotary Club’s president-electJon Cooper. “Cross that line, turn aroundand race it back.”

The requirements of the bed are they mustinclude a footboard, headboard, mattress,and at least four wheels of any size.

Teams may also choose to use one of thefour beds offered by Rotary, instead of theirown.

“The beds were built by a different organ-ization,” Cooper explained. “They did thisas a project for Rotary, which was just out-standing.”

Races will be held in heats, with the topfinisher in each heat advancing to the finals.

During the finals, the teams will race theirbeds with the passenger wearing a night-gown provided by Rotary. At the midwaypoint the person in bed must switch with an-

other member of the team, and put on thenight gown securely before continuing.

With the goal of having 64 teams sign up,cash prizes will be given out to the top threeteams — $500 for first place, $250 for secondplace, and $100 for third place. There willalso be a special prize of $150 to the teamwho has the best themed bed.

“We are really encouraging people totheme,” said Cooper.

The entry fee for the races is $50. There isan additional $25 for those who want to usea bed from Rotary, and a $25 deposit forteams who bring their own bed. The depositwill be returned as long as the team bringstheir bed back with them.

“We’re just trying to prevent … peopleleaving their beds behind,” Cooper ex-plained. “If that’s the case, we’re going tohave to charge people in order to dispose oftheir used bed.”

Proceeds from the races will benefit Ro-tary and the organizations they support.

“It’s just about something different,something fun, something that if you partic-ipate, you’ll be also be helping Rotary,” saidCooper. “I think Rotary touches a lot of or-ganizations throughout Plattsburgh.”

Participants younger than 18 must have aparent or guardian sign a Release of Liabil-ity Form. Registration forms and a completelist of rules can be found on the Rotary’sWeb site, at www.plattsburghrotary.org.Deadline to sign up for the races is Saturday,Sept. 3.

For more information, contact Cooper at983-3311 or e-mail [email protected].

This event is held in conjunction with theBattle of Plattsburgh Commemoration andthe Roducky Derby.

Market stalls to bring life to Bridge StreetBByy SSaarraahh LL.. [email protected]

PLATTSBURGH — Since two furni-ture stores have taken up space at 84Margaret St. since the closing ofZachary’s Pizza, space on BridgeStreet has been noticeably vacant.

According to John Clute, corporatecouncil for the city of Plattsburgh,three spaces were created on BridgeStreet with the expectation they wouldbe used as a dining area for whateverrestaurant took up residence at thecurrent Ashley Furniture Store.

“That of course changed and theyended up sitting essentially unusedfor several years,” Clute said.

Six months ago, Clute and City May-or Donald M. Kazprzak were dis-cussing the street life in downtownPlattsburgh and an idea was formed.

“We decided to just try to put to-gether a rather simple program tomake these spaces available to artistsand artisans that just want to use themfor free without any insurance costs oranything like that,” he said.

Market stalls, as they are beingcalled, will allow people to utilize thespace free of charge on a daily basis, or

for $35 to reserve a space for a week.“It’s pretty much first come first

serve kind of thing,” Clute explained.“If it ever develops or grows we figurethere’s plenty of space for everybodythat might show up.”

Clute said the spaces are largeenough so some people may be able toshare a stall.

“For people who are just selling ear-rings or small items of pottery or stufflike that, those spaces are probably bigenough so each one would accommo-date two vendors,” he said. “We havethree spaces. Six people could conceiv-ably, comfortably fit down there.”

The spaces are ideal as they wereconstructed in a way to keep sidewalksopen.

“The way they were built … it helpsus avoid the kind of problem that youoften do with sidewalk vendors,”Clute explained. “People tend to en-croach out onto the sidewalk and makeit difficult for folks that are handi-capped, or [other people] to get by.”

If interested in utilizing one of themarket stalls or for more information,visit www.lakecityldc.com and clickMarket Stalls. No insurance or vendorlicense is required.

PORT KENT — While manypeople think of cancer as the cur-rent epidemic, Darlene Long be-lieves it’s actually motor neurondiseases.

Darlene’s husband, Roger, wasdiagnosed with Amyotrophic Lat-eral Sclerosis, also known as LouGehrig’s Disease in May 2009.Since his diagnosis he is now in awheelchair, with severe weaknessin his arms and hands. Darlene hasbeen doing a lot of research aboutALS, coming across some interest-ing findings.

While typically only one personfor every 100,000 get ALS, Darlenehas noticed the numbers are muchhigher in Clinton County, andparts of Essex County.

“There’s a lady that we met whois the eastern coast representativefor the ALS [Association],” Dar-lene said. “She definitely said theyknow there’s a pocket here, theyjust don’t know why.”

However, Darlene has learned

Dartmouth University will be do-ing a study to check out the waterbasin.

“They think that there may be abacteria that’s found along ourlake,” she said. “That same bacte-ria is found in Guam, where fivepercent of the world’s cases are.”

As Darlene has learned more in-formation about ALS, she has alsosearched for specific cases in thearea, coming across 25 people whohave died from it since the 1980s.

“But, the bulk of the names, themajority of them, probably three-quarters, are from 2001, on,” shesaid. “So, this last decade has seenthe most of them.”

Darlene also came across someinteresting information on med-ical shows, which state motor neu-ron diseases will actually becomethe epidemic of the 21st century.

“Cancer was considered the epi-demic of the last century, the1900s,” she explained. “We’ve seenenough medical shows … they fig-ure they’re going to have it beat by2016. They are so close with beingable to eliminate it.”

The new epidemic of motor neu-ron diseases include Parkinson’s,Alzheimer ’s, Frontal Lobe Demen-tia, and ALS.

The biggest issue in finding acure for those diseases is there areso many unknowns, includinghow and why it starts.

However, the ALS Therapy De-velopment Institute is working ongetting the answers and finding acure.

This Saturday, Aug. 28, Darlenehas planned a golf tournament tohelp raise money for the nonprofitresearch organization.

“It takes $3 billion to get a newdrug to market,” she explained.“From the time that you go downthe cellular level with the diseaseand you go through clinical trials,come up with the medication, andget it to market.”

Although Darlene said the tour-nament could have been used tobenefit only Roger, she insteadtook in the bigger picture.

“There’s a lot of events to raisemoney for particular people,” shesaid. “But, the bigger picture is we

need money to fight the disease.”The tournament has already re-

ceived enough teams, however,people can still come and supportthe fundraising efforts.

From 12 to 2 p.m., music will beprovided for entertainment at theHarmony Golf Club in Port Kent.There will also be a plaque at thetournament with the names of the25 people in the area who havedied from ALS. There is enoughspace for 40 names, and it is Dar-lene’s goal to have some answersand a treatment before reaching 40people.

“The reality is it could happen toanyone. Any family,” said Darlene.“I think until we find some an-swers, every single one of us couldbe impacted by this disease.”

For more information about ALSresearch, visit www.als.net. Formore information about the tour-nament, contact Darlene at 643-0808. To make a monetary dona-tion, checks may be made payableto ADKYP and mailed to Darleneat 976 Fuller Road, Peru, N.Y.12972.

BByy TTrriisshh MMuunntteeaannSpecial to Denton Publications

FORT WAINWRIGHT, Alaska — Less than ayear after a helicopter crash in Iraq that left onesoldier dead and several others, including him-self, critically injured, Sgt. Justin LaFountainhas returned to his unit.

“It’s awesome to be back at work,” said thePeru native, who serves with A Company, 1stBattalion, 52nd Aviation Regiment, 16th Com-bat Aviation Brigade. The incident happenedSept. 19, 2009, in Balad, Iraq, when the BlackHawk helicopter he was riding in was returningto base in bad weather. The crash, LaFountainrecalled, happened during the landing. Theywere flying about 100 to 150 feet above theground at a “pretty good clip,” he said.

LaFountain said he was in the back, watchingwhat he thought was heat lightning, and re-membered thinking “Oh, we got this, we aregonna make that.” When they got closer he saidhe “started to feel uncomfortable. A couple ofseconds later...”

The details get a little fuzzy after that.LaFountain remembers the left side of the air-craft came to the ground first. He remembersseeing some sparks and hearing a metal scrap-ing noise.

“It was all really pretty quick. We kind ofbounced and came back up,” LaFountain said.“I thought ‘go-around’... Go-arounds are free aswe say.”

“Then the right side of the aircraft hit,”LaFountain said. “I remember the starting of therolling action, the dynamic, and one second lat-er I lost consciousness. I believe it is because myhead contacted the ceiling of the aircraft. I don’tknow.”

“My next memories were of waking up andseeing a dust cloud around me. At that point itreally wasn’t coming to me. I was having the im-pression that I was having a bad dream,” he con-tinued.

When he came to again, he remembered be-ing triaged by a female medic on the accidentsite. He had no idea of the extent of his injuriesand told her to go over and help the others whowere on the aircraft. He told her they needed herand all he needed was some Icy-Hot for his back.He would come to find out that he needed morethan Icy-Hot.

LaFountain was treated at Balad Hospital

that night and medically evacuated to the U.S.Army Hospital in Landstuhl, Germany, the nextday. He recalled joking with the captain whowas putting him on the aircraft that “only in theArmy would I be in a Black Hawk crash lastnight and today you would put me on anotheraircraft.”

LaFountain was at Landstuhl for only a daybefore being put on another aircraft and sent toWalter Reed Army Medical Center [in Washing-ton, D.C.], where he was met by his father andhis grandmother. His wife, Raechel, arrived afew days later.

LaFountain spent the next several weeks atWalter Reed undergoing surgery and physicaltherapy. He was treated for a burst fracture inthe L-5 vertebrae, a skull fracture, a mild tomoderate traumatic brain injury and a cornealabrasion on his left eye.

“It wasn’t until I got into physical therapythat I really started nailing down details. I hadmy surgery on a Thursday afternoon; on Fridaymorning my physical therapist and occupation-al therapist came in, they were amazed,” saidLaFountain, referring to when he could standup using a walker and stand on one leg and thenthe next.

LaFountain remembers being disappointedthey wouldn’t let him try to walk but that justthat little bit of movement “took a lot out of me,”he said. He still didn’t understand their excite-ment when the next day he walked to the doorand back.

“What’s the big deal, I am supposed to be ableto walk,” he said, recalling a conversation withhis physical therapist, after becoming an outpa-tient. “I don’t understand what you guys are soexcited about, I’m up, I’m walking. This is whatpeople do, this is what soldiers do.”

It was then he finally understood the extentof his injuries.

“She told me ‘No, I don’t think you under-stand. On paper you look a lot worse than youdo in person. They didn’t expect you to walkagain. Your spinal canal is 60 percent compro-mised and with the loss of feeling that you havein your legs, it wasn’t looking good,’” he re-called.

LaFountain was released from the WalterReed Warrior Transition Battalion in early De-cember and returned to Alaska where he was at-tached to B Company Warrior Transition Battal-ion. He continued to heal, qualified and compet-ed in the inaugural Warrior Games in May at the

U.S. Olympic Training Center in ColoradoSprings, Colo., along with Sgt. Allen Marley,also from Fort Wainwright’s WTB, who won asilver medal in the air pistol contest.

“It was definitely a once-in-a-lifetime experi-ence. Being able to go to the training center andlive and train there for a week. It is somethingmost anyone in the world would want to be ableto experience and I got to do that,” LaFountainsaid. “Being able to participate in the first War-rior Games was extremely inspiring. One of thebest parts of these games is showing soldiersthat they still have the opportunity to do thingsthat they loved to do before.”

LaFountain, a platoon sergeant and crewchief, returned to work June 1.

“Before I was a squad leader and before I gotinjured I was an assistant platoon sergeant. I’mdoing my job,” LaFountain said. “I don’t get upso much on aircraft, fixing as I did before, be-cause I have other responsibilities. I managed toreceive a temporary up slip so that I can fly. Weare waiting for word back from Fort Rucker...”about the permanent clearance.”

“I’ve had two flights so far,” LaFountain said.“It was good.”

He said it wasn’t scary getting back on a hel-icopter, but it was exciting.

“It came back amazingly well, it was like sec-ond nature. The unit has always supported me.

I kept in contact with them while I was in Wal-ter Reed,” LaFountain said. “They would sendme e-mails. It was a good morale booster. Iwould send pictures. They would print themand post them.”

His goal was always to come back to his unit,but he had to sell the idea to his platoon ser-geant, his first sergeant and commander whohad their doubts because of his injuries.

“To me, it never really entered my mind, heyI am not going to walk again or hey I am not go-ing to fly again,” LaFountain said.

“Once the accident happened, the morale ofthe company went down, but he stepped up,”said 1st Sgt. Gary Sanders, A/1-52nd, 16th CAB.“He sent us a picture of him standing up, on awalker, moving around. As soon as we postedthat, morale of the troops went straight throughthe roof.”

“He won’t take credit, he won’t say ‘I didsomething’, but he did,” Sanders said. “He said,‘Look team; I’m still here in the fight. I am try-ing to get back in the fight.’ He inspired us.”

Needless to say, things are looking up forLaFountain.

“It’s good to be home,” he said.(Editor’s Note: Trish Muntean is a reporter with

the Fort Wainwright Public Affairs Office, fromwhich this story is reprinted with permission.)

Botany professor, students cultivate bountiful awardsPLATTSBURGH — Dr. Chris

Martine and his students at theState University of New York atPlattsburgh are producing na-tional recognition for outstand-ing work within the botany pro-gram.

The associate professor of bio-logical sciences was one of onlytwo faculty worldwide to receivethis year ’s Charles Edwin BesseyTeaching Award from the Botani-cal Society of America. Martine isthe first faculty member fromSUNY to receive this honor.

“Dr. Bessey was renowned fordeveloping botanical educationin the United States,” said inter-im provost and vice president foracademic affairs Patricia Higgins.“It is, therefore, fitting that Dr.Martine should be one of thisyear ’s recipients of this award.His passion for and skills as ascholar of botany are commend-able.”

SOUTH PLATTSBURGH — Airborne Speedway pro-moter Mike Perrotte posted a $250 bonus for any Ernie’sDiscount Tools Modified competitor that could end de-fending track champion Martin Roy’s win streak, but rainforced postponement of the night’s racing Aug. 21.

The bounty will carry over to the “topless” Modifiedcard this Saturday, Aug. 28. All Modified roofs are removedto replicate the early era of open-wheel stock car racingand the Modifieds’ sprint car roots.

Roy has won the last three races including a Tri-Track Se-ries 100 event. He has six victories in all this season, topsin the division. He is second in the championship pointstandings, trailing only Patrick Dupree of Saranac Lake.

Dupree surely found the bounty offer interesting. He hasfive wins this year himself and has finished second to Roy

the last two times out.Perrotte stipulated Roy has to still be running when the

race ends for the winner to collect the bonus.Close point battles in the J&S Steel Sportsman and Ver-

satile Trailer Sales Renegades resume this Saturday. BuckoBranham leads Robin Wood 527-524 in his Sportsmanthree-peat bid. Kevin Boutin of Swanton, Vt., leads LonnieRivers of Cadyville by two points in the Renegade divi-sion. Lance Rabtoy of Fairfax, Vt., trails Boutin by 12points.

The Very First Labor Day • September 5, 1882 If you could create a holiday, what would it be called? What date would you choose for your holiday?

This look at our nation’s history is brought to you by these fine sponsors

Peter J. McGuire, a carpenter and labor union leader, was the person who came up with the idea for L abor Day. He thought American workers should be honored with their own day. He proposed his idea to New York’s Central Labor Union early in 1882, and they thought the holiday was a good idea, too. With four long months between Independence Day and Thanksgiving, Peter suggested a month halfwaya in between.

The very first Labor Day was held on a Tuesday, September 5, 1882, in New York City. The day was cel ebrated with a picnic, concert and speeches. Ten thousand workers marched in a parade from City Hall to Unio n Square.

Soon after that first celebration, the holiday was moved to the first Monday in September, the day w e still honor.

Congress passed legislation making Labor Day a national holiday in 1894.

Outside of the economy, fitness and healthy eating are among the most critical issues facing Americans today. Only 31 percent of Americans are getting adequate exercise and 68 percent of men and 53 percent of women are overweight, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s National Health Interview survey released in March. The good news is that the tried-and-true approach of regular exercise and smart nutrition will go a long way toward managing weight loss and an overall healthy lifestyle. In fact, the benefits of being more active can be seen within a short time after starting a new routine and include more energy, less stress, lower blood pressure, improved digestive health and a reduction in cardiovascular disease risk. When you add in smart nutritional choices to your exercise routine, the positives pile

up further. “As a triathlete and a sports dietitian, I can tell you that plenty of healthy choices are convenient and taste delicious,” says registered dietician Dr. Katherine Beals. So, whether you aspire to overhaul your diet and exercise program or are just thinking about taking a few first steps to a healthier life, smart choices can start with a few simple steps. Abbs and Dr. Beals offer these tips for getting started on achieving overall better health. 1. Get and stay active: Adults should get 2.5 hours of aerobic physical activity per week and perform strengthening activities two days a week, according to the U.S. Health and Human Services department. Fortunately, it is easier than you might think to incorporate exercise into your routine. For example, take the stairs instead of the elevator and find the parking spot that is farthest away to get extra steps

in between your car and your destination. Play tag with your kids, or consider signing up for a community fun run 5K. Not only do these runs usually provide an opportunity to race for a good cause, you can use it as training motivation. 2. Use interval training: Experts say varying your cardio work with a combination of easy/hard intervals will result in faster fitness gains. It also mixes up your workouts and staves off boredom. Next time you go for a run, instead of keeping the same pace, try mixing in a few sprints. Start with 30 seconds on hard and 10 seconds on easy. 3. Go for convenience: Abbs says dried fruits like Sunsweet Ones, individually wrapped prunes, are a convenient and nutritious snack whether you’re training for a marathon or just a busy person on the go. “These delicious snacks are portable, don’t spoil and deliver calories that count.” Plus,

prunes are known to support digestive health. 4. Fill up with fiber: High-fiber foods are critical to digestive health and any weight loss program because they fill you up and help keep the hunger pangs at bay. The typical American eats only about 11 grams of fiber a day, according to the American Dietetic Association, and health experts recommend a minimum of 20 to 30 grams of fiber a day for most people. Fruits (dried and fresh) and vegetables are great fiber sources including apples, pears, prunes, peas, broccoli and sweet corn. 5. After an intense workout: Carbohydrate- rich foods that are energy dense, easy to digest and familiar and appetizing - like bagels, granola bars, crackers, dried plums and fruit juices - are good choices for post- workout fare to replenish any lost nutrients. Exercise also increases the loss of water from the body, primarily through sweat, so the harder and longer the workout, the more lost fluid that needs replacing. “Drinking fluids like water, sports drinks, and fruit juices or eating water-containing foods can replace these lost fluids and, in the case of fruits, fruit juices and vegetables, replace much-needed potassium,” Dr. Beals says. Regardless of your current level of activity and commitment to nutrition, it is never too late to make smart decisions. Make the commitment today and take these steps toward a more fit and healthy you. Courtesy of ARAcontent

PLATTSBURGH — Throughout the years,pianist Adrian Carr has come to notice thebenefits of music in a person’s life. Now,he’s taking what he knows about music andextending it to the community.

On Wednesday, Sept. 1, Carr will host anopen house at the North Country CulturalCenter for the Arts, 23 Brinkerhoff St., from3:30-6 p.m. The plan is for people to come inand see what he will begin offering at thecenter.

“I’m doing piano lessons, but also ‘Every-thing Music,’ which is kind of like a musicexposure and appreciation class for youngpeople, as well as the North Country MusicClub, which is for adults in the evening,”Carr explained.

Carr said his intention for the two classesis to “bring music into the community” byusing a variety of techniques.

“It’s been generally shown in severalstudies that classical music really helps thebrain develop, and for kids this is reallywonderful,” Carr explained. “I’ve noticedthere is a real connection between kids afterthey’re starting to learn piano and get in-volved in music.”

According to Carr ’s Web site, www.adri-ancarrpiano.com, there are 12 benefits ofmusic education. From brain developmentin language and reasoning, to enhancingteamwork skills and discipline, Carr seesmusic as a “wonderful experience” for peo-ple.

To bring the experience to the communi-ty, Carr contacted NCCCA last spring andasked what they were doing about music atthe center.

“They said, ‘Well, we don’t have anyplans yet,’” recalled Carr.

Explaining what he hoped to do, the cen-ter set up a room for him with a piano, asthey wanted to encourage the music in thecenter as well.

“As funding is getting more and more cutfrom public schools and the arts are just suf-fering, I find that there is a space openingup here,” Carr said. “This is where theNorth Country Cultural Center can reallyfill this space ... Not just in music, but in theart course they’re doing here and every-thing.”

Every Wednesday, beginning Sept. 8, NC-CCA will be a day of music, according toCarr.

The Everything Music class, which will beheld in the afternoons for children ages 5and older, will help kids understand bothclassical and popular music.

“What I want to do is make kids music lit-erate,” Carr said. “So, that they’re not ex-perts, but at least they know about music.

“We’ll be designing the program kind ofas we go,” he added. “Questions that theymight have about music. Music that theymight want to play. Topics that they mighthave questions about. It’s very much goingto be an interactive kind of thing.”

Carr is hoping to also bring in art instruc-tors, so children can see the connection be-tween music and art.

For adults, the North Country Music Clubwill be held Wednesday evenings, with thefocus on getting people to appreciate music.

“It want it to be interactive,” Carr said.“Because I want it to be about them. Any-thing that I can do to help them appreciatemusic, help them understand somethingthat they always wanted to know about, butjust never asked, or were afraid to ask, ordidn’t know who to ask.”

For more information about the openhouse, e-mail Carr at [email protected] or call NCCCA at 563-1604.

PLATTSBURGH — CVPH Medical Cen-ter ’s H. K. Freedman Renal Center needsvotes from the community to prove they haveexceptional performance.

Of all the kidney dialysis units across thenation, the renal center is one of only 19 cen-ters to be in the running to have chef OliverHale cook for patients receiving dialysis.

More commonly known as “Chef O,” theaward-winning television host from GrandRapids, Mich., is a dialysis patient himself,and has spent many years working to en-hance life through cooking health foods inorder to reduce health risks.

Chef O teamed up with Baxter Healthcare,a company which specializes in making dia-

lyzers, to see which dialysis units in the na-tion had exceptional performance.

Registered dietician Tara Sherman knewKDU was up for the challenge.

“I got this poster and it just said, ‘Do youhave exceptional performance in your unit?’And, I thought, ‘Well of course we do!’”laughed Sherman.

Since becoming the dietician for KDU twoyears ago, Sherman said she has made it hergoal to create fun and exciting ways for pa-tients to understand the importance of aproper diet.

“My little pet project here, I have this ed-ucation cart that I wheel down the unit, andit’s a fun way to educate the patients,” ex-plained Sherman. “So, I kind of featured thatcart and just talked about how, as a unit, itchanged things.”

A PowerPoint project was created to show-case what exceptional performance meant tothe renal center and how it can be seenthroughout the unit.

“Education needs to change every day,”states the PowerPoint.

Sherman uses the education cart to meetthat goal, using hands-on education tools, in-stead of lecturing.

“The way they were being educated wasboring,” Sherman said. “It not only changedthe way we educate, but it helps morale.”

If the center were to win the challenge, re-ceiving the most votes by the end of August,

Chef O would come to the unit for two days,providing cooking demonstrations with adialysis-friendly menu.

“There’s a whole slew of things [dialysispatients] can’t eat,” explained Sherman. “It’svery tricky for them to come up with fun, fla-vorful recipes.

Currently, the center is not in the top fivecontestants, but Sherman is still hoping peo-ple will vote and show their support.

To do so, visit www.xeniumxph.com andsearch for the H. K. Freedman Renal Center.Voting will be held through the end of Aug.31.

ROCHESTER — Think you caneat only fresh, local, in seasonand organic foods for a day? Aweek? A month? The NortheastOrganic Farming Association ofNew York Inc. is challengingpeople in the state to put theirmoney where their mouth is.

According to their Web site,www.nofany.org, NOFA-NY “is anorganization of consumers, gar-deners, and farmers working to-gether to create a sustainable re-gional food system which is eco-logically sound and economicallyviable.” One step in doing this isthrough the NY Locavore Chal-lenge.

“The idea is to get as many peo-ple across New York State ... to[show] the commitment to eatinglocal and eating organic food,” ex-plained NOFA-NY assistant direc-

tor Lea Kone. “At the same time,raising money for the growth of or-ganic farms and small farms inNew York State.”

The challenge will take placethroughout the month of Septem-ber, but people can choose whenthey want to begin.

“The challenge is set up as threedifferent challenges — a day, aweek, or a month,” said Kone. “Thereason we did that was just to get

people started in eating locally.Some people, it’s their way of lifeand they eat exclusively locally allthe time. Some people, they have

no idea that bananas aren’t local.”“Introducing people who are

maybe new to the movement andgetting more people involvedand interested and thinking

about where their food comesfrom,” she added.

The main rule of the challenge isall foods consumed must be pro-duced locally and sustainably.

According to the Web site,NOFA-NY is defining “local” asbeing produced within 250 miles,although they are hoping chal-lengers will aim for a 100-mile ra-dius. “Sustainably” is “food that isproduced without the use of syn-thetic pesticides, herbicides, fertil-izers, genetically modified organ-isms, hormones and antibiotics.Sustainable food is grown natural-ly, with crops grown using systemslike crop rotations and cover crop-

ping and animals raised humanelyand healthfully.”

However, there are a few excep-tions to the rules.

“We don’t want to be so stringentthat people are even more dauntedand afraid of it,” said Kone. “Noteverything has to be certified or-ganic. It can be from sustainablefarms and food businesses that aregrowing organically.”

The challenge will also allow amaximum of five wild card items,which are items a person just can’tlive without, such as coffee orchocolate.

“For those, we are encouragingpeople to use organic and FairTrade products,” Kone explained.

The challenge will also exemptsalt, spices and seasonings fromhaving to be local.

To help stay on track with thechallenge, Kone said the organiza-tion is encouraging people to blogabout their experiences on the Website. The organization will also

send out surveys to collect data onhow people did.

“Information on how peoplesource their food, what they hadchallenges finding, what theywould have liked to have done,”explained Kone. “Just to collectsome anecdotal information at theend of it that will also be beneficialto us in terms of talking to farmersand identifying opportunities fornew market development.”

To sign up for the NY LocavoreChallenge, visit www.nyloca-vorechallenge.com. A day chal-lenge is $7, a week challenge is $15,and a month challenge is $45.Those who sign up will receiveprizes based on how long they tookthe challenge for.

“The more people who take thischallenge, it’s a very clear, directmessage to the legislatures, peopleinvolved, that this is an issue thatpeople care about,” Kone said.“The power of numbers alwaysspeaks very loudly.”

Oswego band bringing reggae to the ‘burghBByy JJeerreemmiiaahh SS.. [email protected]

PLATTSBURGH — When House On ASpring makes some noise, it's one that has ablend of reggae, hip-hop and a lot rhythm.

The Oswego-based party band has beenperforming since 2006, formed by key-boardist Josh Russell and guitarist MattBrown. The band came together in a base-ment later dubbed the “house on a spring”because of the large influx of people andsounds resonating from within, said Brown.

The band consists today of Brown, Rus-sell, and seven other members. Rob Dee ison vocals and percussion, Liam Shaugh-nessy plays drums, Chris “Bonky” Beattieplays bass and Steve Ernye also plays gui-tar. Andrew Chapman plays sax and percus-sion, Steve Burt is on trombone and percus-sion and Harrison Noel brings his talents tothe soundboard and dubbing.

“House On A Spring is original, consciousAmerican roots reggae, dub, and hip-hop,”explained Brown. “We draw influence froman array of musical outlets including any-thing from local and international reggae

and jam bands to old school funk, jazz andblues, even as far as the punk and skascene.”

The band is in what Brown calls “some-what of a hot-bed for reggae music” in theIthaca, Rochester and Syracuse area, draw-ing heavy influence from the many bandsinvolved in their local music scene.

House On A Spring is currently puttingthe finishing touches on its debut, full-length album“We Gonna Break Free.” Whenit’s released, the album will give people ataste of what they can enjoy when they seethe band in person, said Russell.

“Reggae is a very accessible form of mu-sic that many people can relate to and en-joy,” he said. “Our take on the genre offersa versatility of constantly changing andfresh live performances.”

The summer has also been busy for theband, with House On A Spring playing sev-eral music festivals across the state includ-ing the Upstate Boogie Music Festival inWarsaw.

“This fall we are committing to more of afull-time schedule and playing throughoutthe Northeast,” said Brown, who noted per-
