HOW TO SELL YOUR HOME WITHOUT AN AGENT

Clinton County- If you’ve tried to sell your home yourself, you know that the minute you put the “For Sale by Owner” sign up, the phone will start to ring off the hook. Unfortunately, most calls aren’t from prospective buyers, but rather from every real estate agent in town who will start to hound you for your listing.

Like other “For Sale By Owners”, you will be subjected to a hundred sales pitches from agents who will tell you how great they are and how you can’t possibly sell your home by yourself. After all, without the proper information, selling a home isn’t easy. Perhaps you’ve had your home on the market for several months with no offers from qualifi ed buyers. This can be a very frustrating time, and many home-owners have given up their dreams of selling their homes themselves.

But don’t give up until you’ve read a new report entitled “Sell Your Own Home” which has been prepared especially for home sellers like you. You’ll fi nd that selling your home by yourself is entirely possible once you understand the process.

Inside this report, you’ll fi nd 10 inside tips to selling your home by yourself which will help you sell for the best price in the shortest amount of time.

You’ll fi nd out what real estate agents don’t want you to know

To hear a brief recorded message about how to order your FREE copy of this report, call 1-800-282-1097 and enter ID# 6017. You can call any time, 24/7. Call now to learn how you really can sell your home yourself.

Dear style & substance:What has happened to the art of social

courtesy? What I mean is: why do mostpeople not reply to an RSVP or worse yet,not want to commit to anything?

Seems as though you are referringto us as a “maybe” society. We toofind that responding to an invitation,in both personal and professional set-tings, has become a lost social cour-tesy. We do live in a more relaxed so-ciety than perhaps our grandparent’sgeneration and that could be one rea-son why people do not respond to aninvitation, they may not know the ex-pectation. That being said, we are ina position to set the standard! Re-sponding right away by saying,emailing or texting removes the angstof the host or hostess. Should you beunsure…responding with, “I need tocheck and see, I may have a conflictor I am not sure and will get back toyou by (the day)” at least relievessome of the uncertainty. Knowingbest how your coworkers, friends orfamily operate is half of the problem;some respond easier to the phone,some to email, etc….so when invit-ing, meet people where they are mostlikely to respond. In having to makea follow up call when people fail toRSVP; make it as painless as possiblebefore you feel those negative emo-tions setting in…in this way you canset the “new courtesy” standard andhopefully others will take your lead.

Not responding could also be dueto the fact that people are overbookedfor time and living a very fast pacedlife. Again, not an excuse, but a reali-ty of the times. Make respondingvery simple in using the Regrets Onlyresponse. This can be tricky whenplanning for refreshments and otherparty necessities, but it does simplify.Depending upon the occasion, youmay include a self addressedstamped envelope with a responsecard or, as a sign of modern times,you can send an e-vitation, an elec-tronic invitation, to which your guestcan respond electronically.

Good manners are the foundation

of any relationship and you can setthe expectation by making your owntimely response in all matters!

Style and Substance: The lost art of social courtesy

North Countryman Editorial

Two weeks ago, Vision 2 Action, aforward-thinking group of busi-ness owners and concerned citi-

zens in Plattsburgh, held a progress reportat the Strand Theater in downtown Platts-burgh. It turns out, there was a lot to talkabout, and the event was well attended bypeople representing the arts and business-es in the area. We couldn’t help but noticethat Plattsburgh Mayor Donald Kasprzakwas not among them.

It can be argued that Kasprzak was notinvited, and maybe that’s true. But it wasan open-to-the-community event, held bypeople within the community, for peoplewithin the community. And Plattsburgh ishis community, after all.

V2A has had several applause worthyvictories over the past year, including thenew Saranac River bike path and furtherrenovations on the Strand. They have alsoheld discussions to generate ideas for fu-ture projects involving education, recre-ation, transportation and the arts. Slowlybut surely, their vision, and their action, isbecoming more prominent in Plattsburgh.

If things go as planned, the Strand The-atre will be open this summer, and will belinked with the North Country CulturalCenter for the Arts, which will morph intothe Strand Arts Center. Local businessowners are already buzzing with excite-ment in anticipation of the people the the-ater will draw to the city.

The two downtown galleries–NCCCAand ROTA–were represented at the event.Both have become fixtures in the commu-nity, bringing in artists, and art enthusi-asts, from around the region to Platts-burgh.

It seems that the arts are finally here tostay in Plattsburgh, and with them willcome people, who will spend money,which will encourage economic growthand development. One only has to lookacross the lake to Burlington to see whatan integral role the arts can play in athriving downtown.

In short, the event was a pretty big deal.We can give the mayor a pass — he’s busy,for sure, and maybe something came up.

Or maybe not.

In December, the NCCCA held its annu-al Holiday Member Show. The turnout wasencouraging — people filled the newly-renovated gallery space, and many talkedabout going to grab a bite to eat or a drinkdowntown after leaving the exhibition.Congressman Bill Owens even showed up,but Kasprzak did not.

In January, ROTA Gallery brought in anartist from Saranac Lake, and an artistfrom Montreal. Word spread and peoplestopped by. Mayor Kasprzak did not.

As an elected official, the mayor shouldbe doing more than what he thinks the cityneeds–he should be listening to his elec-torate and helping them achieve what theywant.

We certainly commend the mayor for hisfiscal prudence, but there is more to thejob than that. Much more.

It isn’t like that in every town. SaranacLake Mayor Clyde Rabideau, Lake GeorgeMayor Robert Blais, Keeseville Mayor DaleHolderman and Jay Town SupervisorRandy Douglas are all active participantsin their communities. They don’t just showup at events, either. They work with localgroups, organize and even participate inevents and are involved in discussions onhow to improve their towns.

Perhaps those men understand that afew ideas can go a long way in a commu-nity. For years it was easy to dismiss revi-talizing a theater, creating art galleries andmaking a bike path as pipe dreams. Butthey’re here. People made them happen,and now Plattsburgh is going through areawakening.

The people putting these projects intomotion know that, in order to get jobs,Plattsburgh has to give a little, too.Through hard work and an extraordinaryamount of patience and perseverance, peo-ple have started bringing the things theywant to Plattsburgh. It is a testament, notonly to the determination of some who re-side here, but to the fact that people wantarts and culture in Plattsburgh so muchthey are willing to go after it themselves.

And it’s working, even if the mayor isn’tamong those participating.

—Denton Publications Editorial Board

Mayor should be more vested in arts & cultureNewly proposed legislation pend-

ing in Congress touted as givingwomen a new weapon in the

battle for equal pay as well as protectingworkers from retaliation could just be thefinal straw that breaks the American com-petitive sprit, if passed.

The legislation, dubbed the “PaycheckFairness Act,” is designed to keep compa-nies from responding against an employ-ee who discusses sensitive salary infor-mation with another employee.

It would also mandate that ownersprove differences in pay scale are not re-lated to someone’s gender but instead tobusiness necessity and performance onthe job.

The operative word here is prove.I’ve been operating private businesses

that deal with vendors and employees,and have sat on boards overseeing non-profit organizations for nearly 40 years.I’ve been a part of hiring, working with,and seen first-hand thousands of menand women of all ages, races and anyother category you care to divide peopleinto. As with any situation or experiencethere will never be exactly the same set ofcircumstances for every individual, inevery walk of life. Every person andevery situation is unique. Does discrimi-nation happen? Absolutely, I’m sure itdoes, but is it rampant across all organi-zations? No, not even close.

The idea that government will ride inand save the day for women and downtrodden workers who are forced to workfor unfair wages is just another politicalgimmick, sugar coated to dull the com-petitive edge of the American worker.Like a tenured teacher or a super starathlete who was just awarded a big timemulti-year contract with a large signingbonus, once you remove the competitiveedge, in what some call leveling the play-ing field, you’ve effectively lowered thebar and removed all motivation to exceedthe norm. The norm is what you’ll get.

Performance and production are criti-cal to American industry. Self confidenceand sheer competence are traits that keepemployers and employees focused onreaching the same goal. If you are capa-ble, work hard and produce desired re-sults you become indispensable to youremployer — that is unless those sameskills at a lower rate of pay are readily

available inthe marketplace. Eachof us mustdistinguishourselveswith awork ethic,not only toan em-ployer butmore im-portantly to yourself.

If you feel you are underpaid for thejob you perform, find a new job or betteryet start your own business. That’s thespirit this country was built on and it’sexactly the same in all walks of life andin all organizations large and small. Butif you lack confidence in your abilities oraren’t interested in the highly competi-tive world we live in today, but want thesame pay as someone similarly em-ployed, this legislation is just one moreanchor around the neck of this country’seconomic engine. Fending off lawsuitsand seeking fairness will stall progressand cause one simple solution — payeveryone the same rate of pay. Once thathappens why should anyone competewhen we will all be treated the same re-gardless of output?

Parent and teacher advocates havebeen warning us for years to let our chil-dren learn failure at a young age whenthe stakes are smaller and can be over-come. Legislation like the Paycheck Fair-ness Act will only perpetuate what kidsare experiencing in many facets of theirlives where everyone wins regardless ofeffort. High standards and excellence areonly borne out of hard work and a stead-fast desire to be the very best.

Yes, “luck” plays a role, but peoplewho are driven find ways to overcomethose obstacles. Accepting anything lessthan your very best puts us on a path tomediocrity and as any athlete will tellyou; to compete is an honor but to win isa thrill unlike any other. Just Ask theRaven’s or better yet ask the 49’ers abouttheir motivation for next year. True cham-pions build on adversity.

“We’re hoping to see all kinds of pieces

come in, I like the idea that the artists can goin so many different directions with this as-signment,” Caroline Johr, counselor and dis-aster case manager at the Long Term Recov-ery Group said. “It will be interesting to seewhere people go with this.”

The photos can be viewed by visiting theNorth Country Cultural Center for the Artswebpage at plattsburgharts.org. Workshould be submitted by Feb. 9 and can be cre-ated using any visual medium. The only re-quirement is work should be 5 by 7 inches insize or smaller. The work will be put up forsale on Feb. 16 at a presentation at the NorthCountry Cultural Center for the Arts, 30

PLATTSBURGH — It starts out as a piece of wood, fournails, four wheels and a piece of sandpaper.

Then it is in the hands of local Cub Scouts what to makeof that piece of wood and equipment as they prepare for theannual Pinewood Derby races, held in packs throughout theregion and country.

In Plattsburgh, the Champlain Valley Transportation Mu-seum and Kids Station holds an annual Pinewood Derbynight, which not only helps scouts begin to create their ve-hicles, but also introduces them to the science of Pinewood.

“I think that it is great that we can take these scouts andteach them some basic things about science,” Museum Exec-utive Director Anthony Vaccaro said. “There is a tremendousamount of engineering and science in something that is sosimple. We can talk about friction, aerodynamics, weight,and the alignment of the car.”

This year, Cub Scouts made their way to the museum Jan.11, getting a chance to learn about how to properly shapetheir cars, where the weight should go, how their wheelsshould be placed and more.

“You could spend literally hundreds of hours working tobuild this little car to make it go faster,” Vaccaro said. “Thereare some people who take this to extremes, but the basics ofphysics are here. We as a culture need to have students go-ing in the direction of science, engineering and technology.If we can get scouts and other students at an early age think-ing about math and engineering then we can get them excit-ed and in a position to help this country grow as they grow.”

Vaccaro, who helped his own son prepare Pinewood Der-by cars as a member of the Cub Scouts, said that along withhelping kids learn about science, they also get a chance towork alongside their parents.

“We want to create memories and bonding between par-ent and child,” he said. “This is something that these kidswill remember how well their parents are working with themand helping to create these cars.”

While some packs will hold their own Pinewood derbies,which give the scouts that chance to race their wooden carsdown tracks, he museum will be sponsoring a regionalPinewood Derby Race May 4.

“The museum is here to help the community and we wantto get involved with education, teaching and science,” Vac-caro said. “We feel that this is a great event and we put a lotof time into it.”

Science of Pinewood explored by Scouts at Transportation Museum

Cub Scouts from throughout the region were busy creating theirPinewood Derby cars during the annual Derby Night at the ChamplainValley Transportation Museum and Kids Station Jan. 11.

invitations to the festival are given by lottery with the many com-petitions held throughout the world selected at random to send ateam, Sayward said.

ENIAC was named the winner of the Clarkson Tournament andreceived the invitation. Sayward said this was the first year in sev-eral years that Clarkson was awarded an invitation to give to theirfirst place team, and the ENIAC Masterbots Robotics Team wonthe Clarkson Tournament in December and was given the invita-tion to attend the World Festival.

While at the festival, the team will compete in several roundsof the robotics competition over several days. This year’s compe-tition has students programming a robot to complete tasks that

are related to issues senior citizens face. There are 13 tasks on thecompetition mat.

Along with the task competition, the team will be interviewedabout their robot design and will be judged on their mechanicaldesign, their programming ability and their strategy for solvingthe tasks. They will also be interviewed about how they workedas a team and learned and practiced “Cooperation” and “GraciousProfessionalism.” Both are FIRST terms referring to good sports-manship intertwined with hard work, competition, and kindness.

Sayward said the young 4-H kids have already patented a pro-totype design they made for a robot used to improve the lives ofsenior citizens.

The team is planning to bring a prototype of the device to SaintLouis and give a formal presentation on their device to the judges.

opening reception for Campbell.The opening was the second installment of a new off-site

gallery program sponsored by ROTA Gallery in Plattsburgh inan effort to connect local businesses to local artists.

Campbell’s work includes nine prints and four nature-in-spired photos.

Eight of the prints are monotypes and the other is linocut.A monotype is created by putting a flat of ink on a piece of

plexiglass. A shape is placed on the ink, so when it is run througha press everything but the shape is printed on the paper.

The ink must be given time to dry between each run to pre-vent different colors from blending.

Since the colors and shapes are put through the press one ata time, each monotype print is unique.

A linotype print is more like a stamp, and the image producedcan be duplicated many times.

“It’s a time consuming process,” Campbell said. “In printmak-ing, there are all these different steps that coalesce to make theprint. You’re working with the paint, you’re mixing the color,and later you’re cutting out stencils or preparing the paper.”

Campbell moved to Plattsburgh from Mississippi in Septem-

ber 2011 to participate in a student exchange program while at-tending Mississippi University.

He is currently finishing up a Bachelor in Fine Arts degree atPlattsburgh, and plans to continue making art after he gradu-ates.

“This is absolutely what I want to be doing,” Campbell said.“I came into that notion about six months ago. This is what I aminto, this is what I want to share with others.”

Some of the work Campbells has on display at the ChamplainWine Company represents his first ventures into the medium,when he was experimenting with ink and getting to know theprintmaking process.

As his skill progresses, Campbell hopes his prints will becomesomething that engages people to look deeper.

But he doesn’t think he’s quite there yet. “I want to figure out how to make the viewer involved,”

Campbell said. “I want them to be actively involved in it, and Ihaven’t figured that out yet.”

But in some ways, Campbell has succeeded. One of his prints, “Sequence,” consists of three blue teardrops

imprinted on three lightly colored shapes that resemble feath-ers, or grasses, or moth antennae.

On each teardrop, there is the vague, black outline of a figure.Viewing the piece raises questions as to its meaning, which

Campbell described as a meditation on his friendship with threedifferent people.

Natalie Peck, who owns the Champlain Wine Company withher husband, Colin Read, said she welcomed the idea of display-ing art at their shop.

“Some day I’d like to see local art in all the public spacesdowntown,” Peck said.

The Champlain Wine Company opened in October 2011, andhas hosted one other art opening.

Peck and Read sell about 25 New York State wines at the WineCompany, including wines from local wineries Amazing GraceVineyards and Vesco Ridge Vineyards.

They also sell their own wine, which covers a wide range ofreds and whites, all produced from grapes grown on their Moo-ers farm.

Peck said the showings have helped draw people into herbusiness, and also offer a venue for the artists to sell their work.

There is no commission on art sales, so all of the money goesdirectly to the artist.

“It benefits the artists and it benefits the business,” Campbellsaid. “Everyone’s success is our success.”

Peck said there is no definite end-date for the exhibition, butthat it will probably run until early March, at which time shehopes to get another artist in.

Artists interested in participating in ROTA’s off-site galleryprogram can email samples of their work to gallery coordinatorKaitlyn Donovan at [email protected].

Donovan said she isn’t looking for any more off-site locationsuntil she finds more artists to fill wall space, but encouraged in-terested businesses to email her as well.

The Champlain Wine Company is located at 8 City Hall Placein Plattsburgh and is open Wednesday-Sunday, noon-8 p.m.

PLATTSBURGH — Coffee brought them to-gether, and now they’re sharing that love with theNorth Country.

Crissie and Dwane Bast met in a coffee shop inReno, Nevada in 1999.

The couple began roasting coffee in Peru, NY in2007, and on Monday, Feb. 4, their journey with joeculminated with the grand opening of their coffeeshop, Adirondack Coffee Roasters.

“We always wanted to have our own business,and we figured we know a lot about coffee,” Crissiesaid.

All of the coffee sold at Adirondack CoffeeRoasters is roasted on premises, with a range ofroasts, from light to dark, available.

Crissie explained that the roasting processbrings the flavor out of the beans, so darker roastshave a stronger flavor but a lower caffeine contentthan their lighter counterparts.

The Basts didn’t just learn through trial and er-

ror–the couple have taken classes through the Spe-cialty Coffee Association, an organization thatholds conventions and trains participants about allthings coffee, from how to pick beans to how tobrew the perfect cup.

Although coffee is their forte, Adirondack Cof-fee Roasters also sells hot chocolate, smoothies,and teas.

And, straying from the all-things-drinkable ap-proach, there is an assortment of treats hand-bakedby Crissie, like cannoli and biscotti, available.

Coffee beans, grounds, and mugs are also forsale.

Adirondack Coffee Roasters is located at 373 Rt.3 in Plattsburgh. They open at 6 a.m. daily, and areclosed on Sundays. They are currently open in theevenings, with business dictating how early theyclose. For more information, call 324-2633 or visitadkcoffeeroasters.com.
