A massive glass recycling furnace that was recently dismantled has been shipped to the Nulife Glass plant in the Town of Sheridan, with plans to reassemble the furnace and use it regularly to recycle old televisions and computer monitors that contain cathode ray tubes. The furnace, which is 25 feet tall and 30 feet wide and weighs approximately 70 tons, is the latest investment in Nulife Glass's first facility in the United States. The British company invested around $3.7 million last year in opening its first U.S. operation in Sheridan. Citing a market that could help to recycle cathode ray tubes and related glass components commonly found in TVs and computers, company officials believe the new furnace will help address what has become a growing concern in the electronics recycling industry. The glass in cathode ray tubes includes lead oxide, which makes the recycling of them quite troublesome due to the obvious environmental concerns. Changes that have been made in flat screen technology have resulted in making many of these products obsolete, meaning massive amounts of waste materials are being accumulated. The furnace is expected to be reassembled and operational in approximately

Nulife Glass will be installing a recycling system in Sheridan, the British company’s first facility in the United States.

six months, with company officials planning to hire some new employees to operate the massive piece of machinery. Based in Manchester, England, Nulife Glass specializes in taking toxic lead out of television and computer monitor glass in a modern and energy-efficient manner, the company then converts the raw materials into various products, including tiles, paperweights and different work surfaces. Thanks to the efforts and support of the Chautauqua County Industrial Development Agency, the Chautauqua County Department of Economic Development, the Town of Sheridan, Buffalo Niagara Enterprise and the New York Power Authority, company officials were able to convert a previously vacant manufacturing facility located on Middle Road.

Approximately two dozen people work inside the 50,000 square-foot manufacturing plant. The unique type of innovative technology combined with advanced manufacturing that Nulife Glass specializes in means that their Chautauqua County facility is prepared to profit from a burgeoning market. With the rapidly growing problem in the electronics recycling industry of what to do with old cathode ray tubes, also known in the industry as CRTs, Nulife's utilization of the new furnace will help address what some industry experts label call a "glass tsunami" when addressing how waste materials accumulate while the demand for their recycled product is less than stellar.

INSIDE THIS WEEK

ary frames us. I refuse to let my paycheck define me. If I’m at a job, I am there to work, end of story. It doesn’t matter what the job is, I’m just grateful to have it. This may be a bit of a rant, but it frustrates me to no end when I see people who are not even remotely grateful to be employed. They walk around with a chip on their shoulder, constantly watching out for a way to ‘get back at the boss.’ This attitude is in the forefront of the media right now with the minimum wage debacle. It is disgusting that folks think they should make $15 an hour to flip burgers and handle customers. Minimum wage has never existed to serve as a means to live in abundance. It has served as a starting point with room to grow. Unfortunately, too many people refuse to take the initiative to grow and rather remain at the bottom. Since they won’t accept the responsibility for their actions, they’d rather the employer, or the government, come to their rescue. So, if you’re an employee, work. If you’re an employer, good job. Thank you for creating jobs.

towards life. I’ll share the story of two interviews. The first one, a potential employee with an outstanding resume came in to meet with me about a position. As he walked in the building, I knew without a shadow of a doubt that I wouldn’t hire him. He was wearing canvas flip flops and shorts. To an interview. What? Later that day, I interviewed another man who had an also impressive resume, though a bit less experience. But when he showed up in an ironed shirt and tie, that was all I needed to know. 2- The Job. Since the day I started working, when minimum wage was $5.15 by the way, I’ve heard it said time and time again “I don’t make enough to do that.” My way of thinking is a bit reversed perhaps, but I believe that it has served to benefit me. I always look ahead. If there’s a job that needs to be done, I don’t care if in my duties or not; it gets done. Whether it’s cleaning up a bathroom accident or taking the deposit to the bank, no job is too big or too small. Too many times our sal-

This week: Being a Stay-at-home Mom on a Budget, part 2 By Katy Wise Star Contributing Writer

Last week, we took a look at relatively simple ways to make being a stay at home mom affordable. Although that is the goal of this article as well, I want to specify that this article is not limited to the stay at home mom. This week’s article, more so than last week’s, is geared towards anyone who is in a money saving endeavor, whether for a stay at home mom, stay at home dad, working parents, grandparent, college student, teacher, you name it. So what is this mystery super saver of the week, you ask? Coupons. Quite possibly my favorite word in the dictionary, the word ‘coupon’ means an entitlement to savings or a ticket. ‘Tickets’ are really just a code for something good. Think about it. There are movie tickets, fair tickets, concert tick-

ets… just don’t lump speeding tickets into this category, and almost everything containing the word ’ticket’ is a good thing. Everyone who will take the small effort that coupon savings requires is entitled to a discount of some kind. The coupons that I am talking about are not just the ones that you are used to seeing along with your Sunday paper. As much as I enjoy those, I honestly don’t use them quite as much as the coupons that you can fi nd online. There are many websites that are dedicated to fi nding coupons that are not only accepted in grocery stores, but also retail stores and websites. Finding the time in your weekly schedule to sit down and match up coupons with local sales, and making out your grocery list accordingly will not only save you money, but can save you time as well. Learning to plan meals

is not more important than saving the money you already have from a scam. 2. Do. Sign up for text alerts from your favorite stores when they are having a sale that pertains to you. Certain stores such as Target or JC Penney’s may allow you to customize the coupons you receive (for example, they may ask if you are interested in receiving baby coupons, housewares, etc.) 3. Do. Sign up for email alerts from your favorite stores. Once again, you may be able to customize what kind of sales you are looking for. If you are concerned with getting too much email, add a short task to your to-do in the morning. Couponing Checklist list When you know that 1. Don’t. Do not ever you won’t need to purcontinue with signchase anything from ing up for a coupon that store during the mailing list if they ask current week, simply for your credit card delete the email. numbers, social secuAfter you have been rity number, or other information that seems receiving and watching these emails for about unnecessary.

ahead of time and buying ingredients that will be used in more than one meal is an excellent way to use food wisely and make the most of your coupons. Before listing some different coupon resources that I have used, I would like to mention something to be cautious of. There are many coupon scams out on the Internet, and recently I signed up for a ‘coupon’ website that was a total scam. Simply because I do not wish for anyone else to suffer through the repercussions of signing up for a savings hoax, I also want to mention some ways to steer clear of these counterfeit websites.

tern behind their sales. Keep an eye on these patterns so that you can budget accordingly and maximize your savings. For example, now is the time to buy winter coats, gloves, hats, and also bedding. Winter clothes are quickly going on clearance and will continue to be marked down in order to make way for Spring clothing. 4. Do. (This may be more of a ‘don’t’) don’t ever be afraid to ask cashiers if there is a coupon that you may have missed. Many have extra coupons available at the register that they will gladly use for your purchase when you ask. Especially in children’s clothing stores, I have found many cashiers that will divide up your purchase so that you can better earn more coupons, or get the best use of the ones you currently have. Don’t be shy to ask them, their job is to help you. 5. Do. Sign up to receive catalogs and coupons at your house-

hold. You can do this in-store, online or over the phone for most stores. 6. Don’t. (Once again, this may really be a ‘do’) Don’t hesitate to sign up for FREE rewards programs. If it is a store that you shop at frequently, take advantage of whatever savings they have for V.I.P. shoppers. Steer clear of the credit card offers though, since most store cards have a higher interest rate than your typical credit card. Rewards programs, on the other hand, can rack up points and savings very quickly, and nowadays you don’t have to worry about carrying around an extra card in your wallet as most stores can look up by phone number or email. Well, that’s all for this week, folks! Next week we will be focusing on grocery coupons and shopping strategies for your local grocery store. Thanks for reading and happy shopping!

MAkiNg A DiffERENCE THROugH TROOpER TOyS fOR TOTS By Katy Wise Star Contributing Writer

Residents and former residents of the Village of Fredonia will likely be able to remember Trooper Toys for Tots, located on West Main Street in Fredonia. The former home to this charity and toy store is a very memorable sight, as it features life size toy soldiers and a large toy cannon right in its front yard. Recently, the owner and founder of Trooper Toys for Tots, State Trooper Jack Miller passed on, but he left behind a legacy of giving which stemmed from the passion he had for gifting children with toys. Jack A. Miller was a New York State Trooper for 25 years, and a U.S. Army veteran of the Korean War. In 1965, he started Trooper Toys for Tots, which would give back to the community for nearly 50 years. Especially around the Christmas season, there was much joy to be found inside that house with the toy soldiers, as toys were distributed to children of all backgrounds, spreading the Christmas spirit of giving. “He was very dedicated to the business, he was genuinely devoted to the thought that all children should enjoy Christmas, regardless of creed, wealth or poverty,” said Malcolm Culley, “He was just so dedicated.” Culley is currently the superintendent at Lakeview Shock Incarceration Correctional Facility, in Brocton. During the year of 1989,

His passion was contagious, especially to the inmates that he helped to rehabilitate through his idea for Trooper Toys for Tots. “Jack would share the stories of Christmas time with the inmates,“ said Culley, “children from all over the area would be invited, and we even had an employee from Lakeview who would dress up as Santa Claus for the kids.” Although Miller battled a disease Trooper Toys for Tots, the former home to this charity and toy store is a very for quite some time, he never let that memorable sight, located on West Main Street in Fredonia. him keep him from his cause.

Recent unemployment figures show that unemployment rates among post-9/11 disabled veterans are around ten percent, significantly higher than the national average. In serving in the military, our veterans have already demonstrated their strong work ethic and dedication to a job well done. They now need a chance to contribute when they come home. “Many service-disabled veterans will carry the scars of battle for the rest of their lives. The least we can do is make it possible for them to have a better chance of getting back on sound fi nancial footing and having as positive of a lifestyle as possible as they continue the process of rehabilitation,” said Senator Young. Although the legislation has already passed the State Senate in previous years, its progress in the State Assem-

bly has been stalled. However, in his State of the State address last week, Governor Andrew Cuomo voiced his support for the idea, boosting hopes that combined with the dedicated advocacy of Senator Young and her Senate colleagues, the measure will enjoy renewed potential this year. New Yorkers can sign a petition supporting the NY Jobs for Heroes program by going to www.nysenate.gov/ webform/petition-nyjobs-heroes-program. “I was thrilled to hear the Governor talk about his support for the NY Jobs for Heroes Program in his State of the State speech. This makes me very hopeful that the Senate, Assembly, and Governor can work together to fi nally pass this longoverdue legislation this year. It has been too long in coming, and now is the time for this extremely worthy initiative for our veterans to become law,” said Senator Young.

Faculty members for Pathways to Music have extensive training and experience. Sonja Inglefield holds a Masters degree in Early Childhood Music Pedagogy from the Peabody Conservatory in Baltimore, Maryland. She spent almost ten years teaching early childhood music on the Peabody Preparatory faculty and in the Baltimore City Schools before moving to western New York.

She was a recipient of the 2005 Chautauqua County Early Childhood Award for Excellence in teaching. “In Pathways to Music, children are encouraged to explore creative expression,” says Ms. Inglefield. “Every year, there is more and more research confirming the positive influence of music and movement on the healthy development of children. Even a very young child can benefit from the stimulation of a musical environment. Having a stress-free, enjoyable time in your week is healthy for parents too!” For more information and registration forms, please visit www.fredonia.edu/music/community/pathways.asp or call Sonja Inglefeld at 673-3599.

coordinated care to their patients, while helping to slow health care cost growth. Saint Vincent is the only health care organization in western Pennsylvania to be designated as an ACO. “We’re thrilled about this,” said Scott Whalen, PhD, FACHE, president & CEO of Saint Vincent Hospital. “We’re trying to do the right thing for our patients and this is a real opportunity for us.” The Saint Vincent ACO, known as Saint Vincent Healthcare Partners, will cover 8,000 Medicare pa-

tients in the tri-state area. Two hundred physicians are currently participating while other physician practices are expressing interesting in joining. The Saint Vincent Healthcare Partners ACO includes Saint Vincent Hospital, Saint Vincent Medical Group, Saint Vincent Affi liated Physician Group, Saint Vincent Cardiology, Lake Erie Medical Group and Oil Valley Internal Medicine. Since passage of the Affordable Care Act, more than 360 (ACOs) have been established, serving over 5.3 million Americans with

Medicare. Beneficiaries seeing health care providers in ACOs always have the freedom to choose doctors inside or outside of the ACO. ACOs share with Medicare any savings generated from lowering the growth in health care costs when they meet standards for high quality care. “Accountable Care Organizations are delivering higher-quality care to Medicare beneficiaries and are using Medicare dollars more efficiently,” Secretary Sebelius said. “This is a great example of the Affordable Care Act rewarding hospitals and doctors that work

together to help our beneficiaries get the best possible care.” “The beauty of this system is that it is centered on quality of care for patients with an engaged physician group working collaboratively towards that ultimate goal,” commented Whalen. “This is a new model of care and we are pleased that Saint Vincent will lead the way in our region.” The ACOs must meet quality standards to ensure that savings are achieved through improving care coordination and providing care that is appropriate, safe, and timely. The

Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) evaluates ACO quality performance using 33 quality measures on patient and caregiver experience of care, care coordination and patient safety, appropriate use of preventive health services, and improved care for at-risk populations. “Saint Vincent is re-engineering how we deliver care to our patients,” said Patty Ballman, executive director of the Saint Vincent Healthcare Partners ACO. “We will focus on preventative care and wellness helping people live a healthier life.”

hear from God. Many Christians report their confusion when it comes to hearing God’s voice. This happens mostly due to a lack of Biblical knowledge. While God can speak to us in many ways, the primary ways that God shares His will is in the Bible. The New Testament contains general outlines of God’s expectations for His children. You don’t need to seek God about whether you should take a job that keeps you out of church or what character traits you should look for in a spouse. Given this guidance, Romans 8:16 states, “The (Holy) Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God.” Although this is an important way God speaks, it’s often neglected or

CHuRCH HOppERS

Rev. Michael Lokietek Family Church Fredonia fcfredonia.org

Dear Pastor, does God have a plan for my life? If so, how can I fi nd it out? God has a wonderful and individual plan for each one of us. In order to access this direct guidance from God, we must ask God for wisdom ( James 1:5) and then “tune in” to God’s voice by spending time in His presence (Acts 13:2). Today I want to address an important way to

ignored. I think some Christians seek more “glamorous” experiences like visions or dreams or an “opinion poll” from others. God meant His guidance to be simple, direct, and easily available. This witness mentioned in Romans 8:16 is a “knowing” or “sense in our heart” for what to do. While the culture uses the concept of “heart” to mean emotions, the Biblical use of this word relates to our conscience. The inner witness, then, is the voice of our conscience. When God speaks to our heart, we don’t hear words, but experience more of a “hunch”. For example, when you sin, something in your heart tells you when you’ve done wrong. That same inner voice that “corrects” you, is the same voice that “directs” you if you’re open to hear. The Bible encourages us to follow our heart when it comes to making choices in life (Proverbs 3:5, 4:23). Unfortunately, we tend to make our decisions using our head, or our emotions, without taking time to listen to our heart. How can we prepare our heart to be more open? Spend time in God’s presence through prayer and worship. This increases our sensitivity to His voice so that we can better tune in and hear what God’s saying!

Rev. Tim Stahlman Family Church Jamestown fcjamestown.org

Psalm 92:13 says, “Those that be PLANTED in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God.” A church hopper can never be planted. They uproot themselves over and over again from church to church and they will never flourish. They’re like tumbleweed when instead they should have grown into powerful oak trees like God planned. Oak trees are planted and can weather any storm. Tumbleweed is blown, tossed, and destroyed. Are you ready to take the church hopper test? If you have left a church for any of the following reasons then you are a church hopper. Reason #1: If you have ever left a church because of something the pastor said when he or she was clearly making a point from the Word of God then you are a church hopper. Maybe you heard a pastor teach on money or sinful vices and you didn’t like it and you decided to go to another church. 2 Timothy

4:3 says, “For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers having itching ears.” Perhaps you left a church after being there a while without even having the common courtesy to talk to the pastor first. If that is the case then you are the worst form of church hopper there is. A pastor spends hours studying and praying for you and then you disappear. He or she will then spend several more hours of thought and effort trying to figure out where you are when they could have been tending to someone in need. Church hoppers don’t just steal from themselves; they steal from the Body of Christ. Reason #2: If you have gone church to church searching for a place to share your “gift” or “talent” then you are a church hopper. I can’t tell you how many musicians have come to Family Church to “play” for us. They think because they have a talent that it qualifies them for ministry. God isn’t impressed with your talent. He is impressed

with faithfulness. God looks at the character and integrity of one’s heart before putting them into ministry. 1 Timothy 1:12 says, “And I thank Christ Jesus… for that He counted me FAITHFUL, putting me into the ministry.” 2 Timothy 2:21 tells us that we need to undergo a process before we become “fit for the Master’s use.” Any pastor that would put strangers into the ministry without proving them first is putting the people of God at risk. I have seen people who have aided in the destruction of their marriage by saying nothing but negative things about their spouse. They then leave the church when they are not allowed to teach a class. Go figure. People think the church is a performance stage. Church is a place of divine stewardship where God’s most special resource is cared for and nurtured. It is not a place where novices practice on the lives of people. We need to remember that we will be judged for what we’ve brought into the House of God as much as what we’ve taken out of it.

Snowmobiling where to start, continued from pg 15 Do I need to take a safety driving class before I snowmobile? Some areas require a safety class. It’s best to check locally with your state or provincial snowmobile association. Your state or provincial organizations may offer safetytraining classes. Don’t know whether your association offers safety classes? Find a snowmobiling association in your area for more information.

Where do I purchase a snowmobile and how do I know which one is right for me?

Like any motor vehicle, snowmobiles can be purchased new or used from a licensed dealer. Snowmobile dealers are conveniently located throughout the northern tier (Snowbelt regions) of the United States and Canada. For a full listing of dealers, you can visit the manufacturers’ websites. When purchasing a used snowmobile, buyers should follow the same guidelines in buying a used snowmobile as when buying a used car or boat and have the vehicle inspected by a knowledgeable mechanic. A visual inspection will help determine if the vehicle has been properly cared for. Make sure to always ask for service records! When beginning to snowmobile for the first time, there are many considerations. If you will be taking a rider with you often, then you might consider a two-person snowmobile

manual that comes with every machine.

What are the implications of modifying my snowmobile exhaust system?

where you can travel comfortably with a rider companion. If you plan to snowmobile on your own, a standard snowmobile with mid-range power should provide the best quality ride. Individuals that ride in the mountainous regions of North America should purchase a sled specifically designed for mountain riding. As a tip, you may want to test ride a friend's snowmobile and find out why they purchased that particular vehicle. What to look for: snowmobile type (one or 2-riders), engine size and options. Discuss your preferences with the dealer to make sure you get the snowmobile that’s right for your needs.

Where is the best place to look at snowmobiles?

The best place to begin your search for a snowmobile is to attend one of the many snowmobile shows

held in the states and provinces throughout North America, and visit local dealerships. Snowmobile manufacturers’ websites also offer helpful information and you can even build a snowmobile based on your preferences. Find Canadian Snowmobile Shows & Events and U.S. Snowmobile Shows & Events.

What type of clothing do I need?

Snowmobile clothing comes in all shapes and sizes and all snowmobile clothing, helmets and accessories should be purchased from reputable snowmobile dealers. The following snowfriendly clothing is recommended: bibs (pants that extend up your chest and back), jackets, gloves, boots and helmets. Snowmobile dealers offer a full line of clothing that is specifically designed and manufactured to keep you warm and help withstand winter weather.

The snowmobile manufacturers certify all new snowmobiles meet two rigid sound testing procedures. The certification procedure is designed by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) and recognized worldwide. The manufacturers work diligently to ensure snowmobiles are as quiet as possible and pass the strict SAE sound standards. If a snowmobile is modified, there is a good chance the snowmobile will no longer pass the rigid SAE sound test. Many states and provinces prohibit the operation of excessively loud snowmobiles and require the sound level to be equal to that of the SAE sound level. Exhaust systems are tuned to work efficiently with the engine. Many jurisdictions carry considerable fines for violating sound laws that can be caused by snowmobiles with non-original equipment exhaust systems. In some municipalities it is against the law to modify a snowmobile exhaust system with any exhaust system that does not pass the SAE sound certification test procedure.

Jamestown’s Campion Gets 1,000th Career Point In Victory

By Stefan Gestwicki Star Sports Editor

The Jamestown Lady Red Raiders improved to 9-1 on the night and junior forward Chrissana Green buried 11 points over the game’s first eight minutes, but it was the game Anne Campion had that will be remembered after Jamestown knocked off West Seneca West, 64-43, Monday night. Campion connected on a threepointer in the second quarter that gave the junior guard 1,000 points for her career. Getting to that mark is impressive enough, but doing it as a junior is astounding. The historic shot was part of a 16-point, fiveassist night. Anne became the second Campion in the last 11 months to reach the 1,000-point benchmark for Jamestown. Her brother Tommy Campion accomplished the feat as a senior in February of 2013. Anne Campion also became the sixth Jamestown Lady Red Raider to reach the hallowed mark. As for Jamestown’s win on Monday, Green scored the first five points of the game and gave the Lady Red Raiders a quick lead that they wouldn’t relinquish. The defense was stifling too as Jamestown led 24-1 after the first quarter. Green finished the game with 20 points, 12 rebounds and three blocks. Coach Tim Anderson was able to utilize his bench and get key minutes from some role players — minutes that might prove vital for the growth of the program going forward. Every coach wants to be able to look down his bench in the fourth quarter and see his five starters getting a breather.

On Tuesday, the Lady Red Raiders managed just two field goals in the entirety of the second half and fell to undefeated Frontier (7-0, 5-0), 53-38. The loss came after Jamestown had built a 28-23 lead at halftime. Green led Jamestown with 16 points, but not even she could get going in the forgettable second half. Southwestern 61, Frewsburg 58, 2OT It took two overtime periods, but the Southwestern Lady Trojans were finally able to overcome Frewsburg in a thrilling 61-58 win. Southwestern’s Alex Sullivan was the main weapon with 25 points — including three 3-pointers — and three assists in the win but she had

plenty of support from her teammates. Sally Rudny and Emily Wuebbolt each recorded a doubledouble. Rudny had 13 points and 11 rebounds while Wuebbolt notched 12 points and 17 boards. Frewsburg’s Emily Hair seemed to take it upon herself to match Sullivan point for point and accomplished that feat with 25 points of her own to go with seven assists. Kaitlyn Blanchard was the only other Lady Bear in double-digit points with 10.

Bihler, Gardner top-Ranked wrestlers in wny

By Stefan Gestwicki Star Sports Editor

The high school wrestling season is in full swing and a number of local athletes fi nd themselves among the top athletes in the latest update of the Western New York high school wrestling rankings. No local athletes cracked the top-3 at either 99 or 106 pounds, though a couple earned honorable mention status — Southwestern eighth-grader Shane Hetrick at 99 pounds and Dunkirk eighth-grader

Hector Colom at 106 pounds. Those two last names appeared again at 113 pounds as Southwestern’s Ryan Hetrick is the No. 3 ranked wrestler at the weight. Dunkirk’s Tito Colom and Falconer’s Rick Griffith were both listed as honorable mention. At 120 pounds, Maple Grove’s Brad Bihler is the top-ranked wrestler followed by some tough competition in Drew Marra (Olean) and Donny McCoy (Niagara Falls). Jamestown senior Cameron

Weaver earned honorable mention status in the weight class. The 126-pound weight class is dominated by Buffalo-area athletes, but Falconer’s Jacob Peru was listed as honorable mention. Likewise, Jamestown sophomore Kyle Liuzzo earned honorable mention at 132 pounds amid a swarm of upperclassmen from Erie County. Not surprisingly, Fredonia’s Dakota Gardner is the top-ranked wrestler at 138 pounds ahead of West

Seneca East’s Danny Graham and Frontier’s Rocco Russo. Jamestown’s Dylan Lundmark was listed as honorable mention. Both 145 pounds and 152 pounds saw Chautauqua County athletes get shut out of the rankings, but Falconer’s Kyle Ross cracked the top-3 at 160 pounds. Maple Grove’s Howie Nolan also gained honorable mention status at 160. From 170-285 pounds there are very few familiar names. Cattaraugus-Little Valley/Pine Valley’s Alex

Kelly was an honorable mention at 170 pounds and Falconer’s Jake Penhollow earned similar status at 195 pounds. As for team rankings, Falconer is currently the No. 1 small school in Western New York just ahead of Lew-Port and Newfane. Cattaraugus-Little Valley/Pine Valley is ranked eighth. In the large school rankings, Jamestown holds onto a respectable fi fth while trailing No. 1 Clarence, Lockport, Iroquois and Lake Shore.

The shot put was dominated by local competitors with Dunkirk’s Amancia Viera (30-2) taking fi rst place, followed by a pair of Lady Red Raiders — Courtney Smith (28-10) and Keiona Nance (249) — in second and third, respectively. Henry Tapia was a force for Jamestown in the boys’ 10th grade meet. The sophomore won both the 55 meter dash (6.85) and the 300 meters (:38.69). In the 300 meters, Tapia was joined quickly at the fi nish line by a pair of Dunkirk Marauders. Miguel Alicea (:40.31) and Julio Cheverez (:40.66) were third and fourth, respectively. Jamestown’s 4x400 relay team of Zachary Butts, Joshua Osgood, Izalia Ra-

In the 4x200 meter relay, Dunkirk’s team of Alex Montalban, Miguel Alicea, John Collazo and Julio Cheverez was involved in a highly intense four-team race for the fi nish. Lancaster won the event in 1:47.32 followed by Niagara Falls (1:48.65), Dunkirk (1:48.74) and Iroquois (1:49.01).

Therefore I decided to do more of a research/ educational piece this week instead of my usual ranting commentary. I think we could all use a break from me trashing the Bills. I should mention also that the purpose of this article was also brought up by the recent 20-year anniversary of the Monica Seles stabbing. Well it wasn’t that recent (April 30, 1993), but last week was the 20year anniversary of the Nancy Kerrigan attack and of course watching video of that brought me to the Seles incident as well. What were people thinking in 1993? In my research I kept seeing that Seles had a legitimate shot of breaking Margaret Court’s record of 24 Grand Slam titles. If I thought I knew little about men’s tennis, I knew less than nothing about women’s tennis. So I included the most dominant women as well.

gREATEST MEN’S plAyERS:

• Roger Federer — Come to find out, yes,

Federer is widely regarded as not only the greatest men’s player of all time, but the greatest tennis player ever. He held the world’s No. 1 ranking for a ludicrous 237 consecutive weeks from 2004 to 2008. He has taken home 17 Grand Slam titles. He’s reached the finals of EACH Grand Slam tournament at least five times. He appeared in 18 of 19 fi nals from the 2005 Wimbledon Championships to the 2010 Australian Open. I could list his accomplishments and fi ll this entire paper. Simply put, Federer is in a league of his own. • Pete Sampras — The greatest American men’s tennis player ever, Sampras went out on top after defeating Andre Agassi in the 2002 U.S. Open fi nals. He shares the record of seven Wimbledon singles championships and the record of five U.S. Open singles titles with Federer. Sampras won 14 Grand Slam titles during his 14-year run. He held the yearend World No. 1 ranking from 1993-1998. • Rod Laver — The Australian did the bulk of his damage in the 1960s, so it’s hard to compare him to the players of today, but it’s also impossible to ignore Laver’s 200 career singles titles. He is the only tennis player to have won the Grand Slam (all four

weeks, again a record for either men or women. She won each of the four Grand Slams at least four times. She married Andre Agassi in 2001 and they have two children. How long until the kids are on this list? • Martina Navratilova — Consider this list 1 and 1A because there’s certainly a strong argument to be made to Navratilova to be the best female player ever. Get ready to be blown away by her accomplishments. gREATEST WOMEN’S Navratilova won 18 plAyERS Grand Slam singles • Steffi Graf — The titles, 31 major womGerman holds the en’s doubles titles and second-most Grand 10 major mixed double Slam titles ever with titles. Billie Jean King 22. That includes men called Navratilova “the and women. She not greatest singles, douonly won the Grand bles and mixed doubles Slam in 1988, but she player who’s ever added an Olympic gold lived.” She reached medal that year, too. If the Wimbledon fi nals you thought Federer’s nine consecutive years streak was impressive, from 1982-1990 and get this: Graf was the 12 times overall, winNo. 1-ranked female ning nine times.

major singles titles in the same year) twice. He accomplished that feat in 1962 and again in 1969. He holds the all-time men’s record of 22 singles titles in a single season. Laver was also a dominant doubles player with a total of nine Grand Slam doubles titles.

There is a fantastic ESPN 30 for 30 called ‘Unmatched’ about Navratilova and Chris Evert. • Margaret Court — Every professional player that has picked up a tennis racket has been chasing Court’s record of 24 career Grand Slam singles titles. Her career record of 1,180-107 gives her a career winning percentage of .916 — higher than anyone in history. She won multiple career Grand Slam sets in singles, doubles and mixed doubles — the only player in history to accomplish the feat. Her record might not be one that will never be broken, but it’s survived some amazing players since she retired in 1977. • Chris Evert — Perhaps the greatest American female player ever, Evert won 18 career Grand Slam singles titles. She was the year-end World No. 1 in seven years from 1974-1981. Evert reached 34 Grand Slam fi nals, a record for men or women.

Submitted Article FSU Sports Information Dept.

Fredonia State has hired Tony Ciccarello as head coach of women's softball, effectively immediately, the university announced today. A veteran of 12 seasons at two schools in the State University of New York Athletic Conference, Ciccarello becomes the third head softball coach in Blue Devil history. "I am excited to shart a new chapter in my career," he said. "I am looking forward to improving the program and to be consistent year in and year out." Ciccarello has a career coaching record of 278-193 and his teams have qualified for the SUNYAC tournament 11 times. He was twice named SUNYAC Coach of the Year. In addition, he was a successful high school coach prior to entering the collegiate ranks. "We are pleased," Fredonia State Director of Athletics Greg Prechtl said, "to have someone with Coach Ciccarello's background and experience assuming the leadership of our softball program. He has been successful at both the high school and collegiate level and has a thorough understanding of the SUNYAC and what it takes to win in this conference. "Once he has a chance to bring in some players and fi ll out the squad's roster, we expect to compete with the top teams on our schedule." Ciccarello is familar with Fredonia State, both as a rival SUNYAC coach and as a parent. His daughter, Gabrielle, is a 2012 Fredonia State graduate and was a four-year member of the Blue Devil softball team. She is currently the assistant softball coach at

Utica College. Ciccarello comes to Fredonia State from New Paltz, where he coached the Hawks to a 2019 record in 2013 -- including an 11-7 mark in the SUNYAC. The Hawks qualified for the conference tournament for the fi rst time in three seasons and their 11 conference wins were the most since the 2008 team won 13 games. Prior to his one season at New Paltz, Ciccarello was head coach at SUNY Geneseo for 11 full seasons. His Geneseo teams went 258-174 overall and he coached the 2002 Blue Knights to the program's lone SUNYAC title -- resulting with an appearance in the NCAA Division III tournament. Ciccarello was named the SUNYAC Softball Coach of the Year in each of his fi rst two seasons (2002 and 2003). His 2003 and 2005 Geneseo teams won ECAC Upstate Division III softball titles. In addition to coaching softball at Geneseo, Ciccarello worked as a physical education teacher at the St. Agnes School in Avon, N.Y., from 2005-12. Prior to Geneseo, he spent 17 seasons as the girls varsity softball coach at

Webster High School, leading the Warriors to two Section V Class A championships (1988 and 2001) while being named Monroe County Coach of the Year in 2001. Ciccarello earned his Bachelor of Science in physical education from The College at Brockport in 1979 and received his Master of Arts in education/curriculum and instruction from the University of Phoenix in 2006. He succeeds Nicole Loudin, who resigned last August to become head coach at John Carroll University. Loudin served as head coach for two seasons. The Blue Devil softball program was coached by Lorrie Corsi for its fi rst 16 seasons of existence. Ciccarello's duties at Fredonia State will include facilities management in the Department of Athletics & Recreation. His coaching staff will include second-year assistant Lauren Larson as well as Bob Katta, who previously coached the Blue Devil pitchers from 2010 to 2012.

sabres Fall to Leafs in shootout

Contributed Article Associated Press

Unlike last year, the Toronto Maple Leafs are proving to be pretty good at the shootout. The Leafs made it through three periods and overtime for the 13th time this season on Wednesday night and managed to beat the Buffalo Sabres 4-3 for their leagueleading ninth shootout victory of the year. It was the Toronto's third straight win, and three of their past four overall have come via the shootout. ''I think if our team had a choice, we'd try to end the game a bit earlier,'' said defenseman Morgan Rielly, who scored his first home goal this season. ''But I think that's just an aspect of hockey nowadays. It just turns out that we're pretty good at them.'' Only the Washington Capitals have gone to the shootout more times than the Leafs, who have just three regulation victories in their

and Bozak is three for five in shootout attempts. ''Think we're confident in the guys that we can send out there to score goals and confident in our goalie,'' van Riemsdyk said. ''We seem to have guys that are confident going in with their moves and the goaltenders are confident in the net. It makes it a good matchup in the shootout.'' The Sabres dropped to 6-3 in shootouts, but were thankful to get there thanks to Cody Hodgson's power-play goal early in the third period and a strong penalty kill in overtime that included a good scoring chance for defenseman Tyler Myers.

ANOTHER SHOOTOuT, CONTiNuED fROM pAgE 34

Goaltender Ryan Miller, ve who could again be the U.S. starter at the Sochi n Olympics after leading d the Americans to silver in and Vancouver, was strong before the shootout in making 36 saves in regulation re and overtime. He gave up heir goals to Olympic teamers mate Phil Kessel, Nikolai It Kulemin and Rielly. p in Kessel's was a pure goal-scorer's goal, a perfect shot that went ere five-hole on Miller. ''He made a nice shot,'' on's Miller said. ''I didn't n see. Good for Phil. Get him going for the ver- Olympics, I guess.'' od In addition to Hodgson, nseMatt Ellis and Matt Moulson also scored for lo the Sabres. Moulson's f goal at 6:34 of the ght second wasn't reviewed, me though it took several of replay angles to show it n clearly went in the net. ittle Just before that, Buffalo's Zemgus Girgensons s had a quality chance on a second-period penalty shot, which Reimer stopped in what turned out to be practice for the shootout. Not that Reimer needed it, as he improved to 4-0 in the shootout this season. ''Personally I'm not a huge fan of shootouts,'' Reimer said. ''It's something I try to practice most days as

much as I can. Shootouts are important points, and they're huge come the end of the year. Obviously regulation wins are most important, but those points are priceless.'' While the Leafs have taken what they've earned in shootouts, Miller and the Sabres were left to wonder about a point lost. ''Unfortunately, I wasn't very good in the shootout,'' Miller said. ''That's the difference.'' Being so good in the shootout has made a major difference in the Leafs' fortunes this season. ''When you win them it's a positive, when you lose them it's a negative,'' Carlyle said. ''That's the bottom line. That's what you play the game to gain points and to win, and a shootout gives you a win.'' NOTES: Enforcer Colton Orr returned to Toronto's lineup and Frazer McLaren was scratched to make room for Orr. ... Sabres forward Matt D'Agostini left the game early in the first period with an upper-body injury and did not return. D'Agostini skated just three shifts for 2:19, and Nolan said he expects him to be out for ''a little while.'' ... This was the fi fth and final meeting between the Leafs and Sabres this season.

In a season in which Peyton Manning surpassed Tom Brady's single-season record for touchdown passes, it's probably fitting that these superstars will meet with the AFC title on the line. While the quarterbacks will share this weekend's spotlight, there's reason to believe the rushing attacks for the Denver Broncos and New England Patriots will be more decisive to Sunday's outcome. This could be the final postseason matchup between these future Hall of Fame signal-callers, and the stakes couldn't be higher with a trip to Super Bowl XLVIII on the line in Denver. Manning was the story of the season as he dissected NFL defenses with ease for 55 touchdown passes. Brady set the previous mark of 50 in 2007 when the Patriots nearly completed an historic 19-0 season before an upset loss in the Super Bowl to a New York Giants team led by Manning's brother, Eli. Brady has won 10 of 14

matchups with Manning's teams, including a 2-1 mark in the postseason in which the home team has prevailed each time. This duel is drawing comparisons to other iconic sports matchups such as Ali-Frazier, Palmer-Nicklaus and Bird-Magic. "It's going to a barnburner," Broncos executive vice president of football operations John Elway said. The first meeting this season certainly was a thriller, as New England (13-4) rallied from a 24-0 halftime deficit for a 34-31 overtime win Nov. 24 in Foxborough. Manning was held to 150 yards, a 52.8 completion percentage and a 70.4 passer rating - by far his worst figures of his

historic season. Denver (14-3) is favored this time as the No. 1 seed with home-field advantage. Brady, who missed practice Wednesday because of illness, said in his weekly WEEI radio show that he is relishing being the underdog. ''I'm sure no one's going to pick us to win this week," said Brady, who will make his eighth AFC title game appearance and third in as many years. "We've had our backs against the wall for a while. Really, the whole season we've lost players, and teams have really counted us out." The players that Brady and Manning will hand off to this weekend figure to be crucial in determining the winner. Knowshon Moreno

had a career-high 1,038 rushing yards this season, and the Patriots will be very familiar with him after he had a career-best 224 yards in the November meeting. ''He has just been a rock for us back there,'' Manning said. While New England knows what to expect from Moreno, Denver can't say the same about LeGarrette Blount, who had two carries for 13 yards the last time these teams met. Blount is rolling now with a career-high 189 rushing yards in a 34-20 win over Buffalo in Week 17, and 166 with four TDs in last Saturday's 43-22 rout of Indianapolis. The home team has won all three previous playoff meetings. Elway guided the Broncos to a 22-17 win after the 1986 season en route to his first Super Bowl appearance, Brady suffered his first loss in a playoff game after starting 10-0 with a 2713 defeat after the 2005 season and the Patriots cruised to a 45-10 win two seasons ago against an overmatched Tim Tebow-led Denver squad.

ALERT - NO-FAULT BENEFITS UNDER ATTACK

• If you have been injured in an auto accident, New York State Law requires the insurance carrier for the vehicle you were in to cover your related medical expenses and any lost wages (Insurance Law Section 5103).

• Recently, many insurance carriers are attempting to avoid this legal duty by paying biased doctors, often from outside the area, to support them in cutting off these important benefits.

CAMPBELL & SHELTON LLP has taken the following steps to protect our clients: • We will send an investigator to any suspicious exams and videotape the physician. • We will sue any insurance carrier who denies our clients their benefits without a valid basis (we recently obtained a judgment against Allstate for a client’s unpaid benefits, costs and interest). For these and many other reasons, if you are injured in an automobile accident you need experienced and capable legal representation as soon as possible.
