Wood Brothers Celebrate Grand Opening of Potato Chip Factory

By Dusten Rader Entertainment Editor

The Brothers Wood Potato Chip Factory celebrated its Grand Opening on Saturday, January 28 in Corry Pa. The event featured a ribbon cutting by dignitaries and legislators, a tasting and a live viewing of the process in which the chips are created.

Brothers Jon and Curtis Wood always dreamed of opening a potato chip factory and that concept recently became a reality. Jon, the owner of Mayville’s WoodCrest Golf Course (woodcrestgolfclub.com) first looked at the business in 1992 but decided it wasn’t possible to open at that time. So, he and his brother spent the following years planning until they knew exactly what they wanted. Five years passed and they revisited the idea and began producing the chips at the golf course.

They then decided to begin co-packaging with Troyer Farms. But, unfortunately Troyer Farms shut down the facility. So, the brothers then decided it was time to purchase the still in tact facility in Corry Pa. The brothers are still utilizing Troyer Farms employees who have been volunteering their time to help get the business started.

“They have been completely so helpful down here,” said Jon. “We wouldn’t have been able to do this without the help of the Erie Chamber of Commerce and the Troyer Farms people. They brought much experience with them from 15 years to 25 years. Right now they are volunteering but eventually when we start pro-

ducing more they will come on board.

My brother and I are in this together but they are really the ones who are making this go.”

The brothers plan on spending the next six months getting the facility ready and producing enough chips to get on the shelves at Wegmans, Tops and local stores.

Jon and Curtis believe in the product’s ability to succeed based on the uniqueness of the chip. The process in which the chips are produced yields a chip unlike any other. Using corn oil and frying the thick sliced potatoes longer creates a thick, dark and crispy chip with great flavor.

“I always hate it when you get to the bottom of a bag of chips and you find nothing but crumbs,” said Jon. “With our chips there are no crumbs.”

The brother’s tag line for the chips goes like this, “We may be small potatoes, but once you take a swing at the Brothers Wood Potato Chips, you’ll agree that we’re a long drive from ordinary. Our Chips are a little darker, a little thicker and a little crispier than the average kettle cooked chip.”

The name Wood Chips came from the brother’s last name. But, it also came from chopping trees on the golf course.

“One day I was out chopping trees on the golf course and I remember looking down and seeing wood shavings all over me and thought this would be a great idea for a potato chip,” said Jon. “People ask if they are really made out of wood but no they are potatoes.”

Eventually the Wood brothers will start producing some seasoned chips as well. But, they first want to get the original salted chips on the shelves for the community to try.

Showcasing Women and Their Art ‘Women Create’ Exhibits in Jamestown, February 11-March 31

Inside This Week

Patricia Pihl Star Staff Writer

The 3rd on 3rd Gallery at the Reg Lenna Civic Center will mark its one year anniversary with the “Women Create” Exhibit showcasing the talents of 40 local artists. The juried art collection is as varied as the women themselves, with an eclectic variety of art and media, representing the work of students, hobbyists, and professional artists.

Founders Debra Eck and Jennifer Schlick built on the success of last year’s SWAN (Support Women Artists Now) event at Infinity Performing Arts saying the show was well received by the community. Eck, who is a member of the National Women’s Initiative said,“the show was a good start, but we weren’t satisfied...we felt it had so much more potential to be developed into another event.”

With the goal to promote women artists in the community year round, the two then formed CAW, or Creative Arts of Women. Their collaboration lead to The Women Create Exhibit, as well as spin-off events, including workshops and salons, culminating with a celebration on March 31of SWAN Day. “It’s not so much about creativity as much as it is about art as this hidden economic driver,” says Eck. “SWAN highlights the economic contribu-

tion that women’s art makes to the community all over the world.”

For Women Create, Schlick said,“we put out a call for work and asked women to submit images. We had over 50 artists and over 150 works.”

A small committee was formed to judge the submissions and how the pieces would work within the gallery space, which Schlick describes as similar to a New York City loft.

The collection is diverse with a variety of art and media including three dimensional pieces, paintings, and fiber art.

An entire wall of the exhibit will feature what are called flag books, which will display among their accordion folded pages the photos of women artists at work. Schlick and Eck were the first to receive a grant for the flag-book presentation from

the Ray and Wyn Evans Foundation.

The goal being to make visible the invisible contributions of women to the creative and economic communities in which they live. After March, the books will be available for display in other venues.

The community can participate in

Commentary

Scott Wise Commentary

I’ve always been one who liked this area. I’ve never felt it was too small, and never had that ‘need to get away’ men-

tality. My first commentary when I started working for the Star was about how much I love this great county of ours.

Well, since then… Nothing has changed.

I still love living here. I love raising a family here; a place that I can go downtown and see ten people I know. A place where I can wave to the majority of cars driving past because, in one way or another, I probably know them.

That’s one of the reasons I’m so thrilled to work for this paper.

I wanted to work at the Star since I first heard about its debut. I knew it was the place for me, because of what it stood (and still stands) for- community. You’ve likely heard it

Showcasing Women, Cont. from page 1 help someone.

That’s why our website is so wonderful, in my not-sohumble opinion. We’re really breaking into a new niche with it- bringing the web to a local level. You can step into the great big Internet and still know what’s going on in your hometown. It excites me to see where its going, because as our community grows so too will this paper and the website.

So thank to you, Reader, for making this a place that we can raise a family. Thanks to you for making this a place that will challenge us, grow us and comfort us. 2012 has been great so far, and we’re excited to see where the rest of the year takes us!

said that ‘a kingdom divided against itself cannot stand’ (if you haven’t- Google it), and I believe that goes for communities as well.

The American way seems, to some extent, to be focused on how much you can hurt others to get ahead. I never want to live in a place that is like that. We ought to try as hard as we can to help each other, and I think we live in one the few areas left that does that.

I’ve seen so many amazing things happen in this great area; so many families and organizations in need who had folks rise up to the cause to help them through. There never seems to be an amount that is too much for Chautauqua County residents to do to

Let Norman Yonkers’ Karate Connection MMA Be Your Overall Wellness Strategy Contributed Article Norman Yonkers’ Karate Connection

Obesity is a concern among adults and children despite the resources available for getting in shape. To help, the fitness industry’s latest trend is in “wellness coaching” according to Jacqueline Stenson, a contributing writer for MSNBC. Why? Personal Trainers are discovering that their clients may not achieve their goals just by eating healthy and exercising daily.

Wellness coaches are taking aim at their clients’ lifestyle issues such as: smoking, food choices, stress-inducing job fac- tors, time management and even personal relationships. By focusing on all areas that impact on their clients’ overall health, wellness

coaches hope to increase their clients’ success.

Tackling fitness obstacles, from a broader wellness approach is an excellent idea be-

cause individuals have unique needs that may be limiting their success. One adult may have career demands while another may have family responsibilities. One child may

The clubs supply hot dogs, hamburgers, chips, etc. However, there is a special event called “A Taste of Chautauqua Trails” which will be taking place during the ride-in as well. It follows the same concept as events like Taste of Jamestown, except free.

“In that event, several businesses along the trail system donate one of their signature soups or chilies or some kind of signature dish, and we have labels to show what particular business donated it,” said Head. “It’s the businesses specifically that benefit most seasons from the snowmobiling business. ...So it’s kind of a real nice situation.”

The ride-in will be held, weather permitting, at Chautauqua County’s Fireman’s Grounds in Stockholm, on Feb. 12 from 11 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. In the case there isn’t enough snow on the ground, the event will be cancelled and not rescheduled.

The snow for this winter didn’t come until mid January, and since then it has been a reoccurring cycle of melting and snowing again, like a cat who isn’t quite sure if it wants to stay or leave the house. In addition to annoying many who are forced to put up with its antics, this winter has left those who participate in winter activities, especially those who cannot rely on fake snow, on the edge of their seats wishing for Jack Frost to finally make up his mind.

Among those who are watching the weather forecast intently are the snowmobilers of Chautauqua County as the annual “Chautauqua Ride-In” approaches.

The Chautauqua Ride-In is an event held annually for the snowmobilers of Chautauqua County, their families and whoever wishes to show up. However, because it is a

“ride-in,” enough snow must be present, around five inches, so snowmobilers can safely ride their snowmobiles to the event. The building where it is held has enough parking spots for around ten cars, making the event impossible to hold for the year if enough snow doesn’t cover the ground.

The Chautauqua Ride-In is an event hosted by the five snowmobile clubs of Chautauqua County: Chautauqua Lake Snowmobile Club, Cherry Creek Sno-Goers, Ellery SnoCruisers, Lake Effect Trail Breakers and Sunset Drifters.

“They all get together, and they each take a certain part of what it would take to put on a nice party for people to get together, socialize, talk snowmobiling and get information about snowmobiling,” said Ray Head, the Chairman of the Snowmobile Club of Chautauqua County. “They all make and throw a large party, which is totally free, that’s paid for by each one of the clubs in Chautauqua County.”

The Fredonia Garden Club held their meeting at the WCA Home on Tuesday, January 10, 2012 and after the meeting they met with the residents and taught them how to make humming birds to hang in their rooms! It was so much fun, with just a little paint, a tooth pick, peanut shell, glitter and wings, it was like magic – suddenly they were holding a beautiful little bird – a humming bird. The ladies were all very pleased with their creation and applauded the Garden Club for this fun-filled time together.

Learn About At Risk Species at Audubon Contributed Article Audubon Center and Sanctuary

A threatened species is one that may become extinct if measures aren’t taken to protect it.

An endangered species is one that has a very small population and is at greater risk of becoming extinct; many species that become extinct never make it to this list.

At the Audubon Center and Sanctuary’s First Friday Lunch Bunch on February 3, NYS Department of Environmental Conservation Senior Wildlife Biologist Connie Adams will give a presentation on “Common Terns and Peregrine Falcons.”

New York State lists common terns as a threatened species and peregrine falcons as endangered. In the early 1900’s, common terns were almost exterminated by plume hunters.

Protective legislation in 1918 allowed this species to make a comeback in the 1920’s and 1930’s. Today, common terns face a variety of threats.

Peregrine falcons were eliminated as a nesting species in New York by the early 1960’s,

due primarily to pesticide residues in their bird prey. From 1974-1988 the release of young captive-bred birds helped lead to their return as a nesting species.

Adams’s talk will compare these two aerial predators, describing their life histories, habits, and how they make their living preying on aquatic and land-based quarry.

Adams has been with the New York State DEC since 2005 where she works with colonial water birds, migratory game birds including waterfowl and

woodcock, peregrine falcons, and grassland birds. She worked on the project that hatched peregrine falcon chicks in a nesting box placed by the University of Buffalo at its South Campus.

Having done her graduate and undergraduate studies in Natural Resources at Cornell University, Adams has worked throughout the United States, including running the Alaska Bird Observatory in Fairbanks during fall migration, as well as in the West Indies with a British Trust for Ornithology team and in Australia at Barren Grounds Bird Observatory in New South Wales.

Following the 11 am presentation, coffee and tea will be provided for a BYO brown bag lunch. The fee for attending is $5 for Audubon members and $7 for non-members.

The Audubon Center and Sanctuary is at 1600 Riverside Road, off Route 62 between Jamestown and Warren.

A problem posed to me many years ago has remained with me. It reminds me that each challenge has its own set of expected and unexpected complexities.

“A rowboat needs to travel upstream a distance of thirteen miles. Its maximum speed is 3 mph, and the river flows at rate of 1 mph. What time will the boat need to leave the dock to arrive at its destination by 5 p.m.?”

While my teacher diligently explained the algebraic formula to arrive at the answer, I could actually see myself in that boat. Let’s see, it’s a beautiful day for the trip, nothing but the sound of birds in the early morning sunlight.

Suddenly, a call for help from a pair of nearby kayakers attracts my attention. After half an hour they are on shore and in the care of medical personnel. And I’m back in the boat and headed upstream. A short time later, the sound of music draws me into a small café situated along a shady cove.

After a light repast, I resume travel. Nearing the destination, a leg cramp incapacitates me and totally stops forward motion. Groan, shake it out, and resume travel.

Ultimately, I came to accept the formulas and pass the class, but I retained my belief that things are always more complicated than they may first seem and that variables are always at play.

What, you may be wondering, does this have to do with the Chautauqua Region Community Foundation?

The CRCF recently partnered with the Food Bank of WNY to solve a problem: to fund the transportation costs associated with the annual transfer of approximately 1.4 million pounds of food to forty-five member agencies within a 1,100 square mile radius.

Perishable food items are delivered by truck directly to Chautauqua County member agencies in order to offer nutritious food items in a timely and consistent manner. Costs include the driver’s

Partners Fighting Hunger got a big boost with a check for $11,575 to help defray food pantry distribution costs.

salary, truck maintenance and repairs, fuel, phone, and distribution center/storage facility rent and utilities. The challenge was to find immediate funding for this essential service.

Fortunately, the CRCF was able to call on several donoradvised funds at the Foundation to help defray these costs. Advisors of the Jane Miller Fund, Edwin J. and Katherine M. Hegstedt Memorial Fund, and the Compass Fund came to the rescue with their immediate response and provided the necessary funding to sustain critical transportation services aimed at fighting hunger in Chautauqua County. The beneficiaries are the infants, children, adults and the elderly in our region.

A delivery truck and driver now travel to all participating agencies making timely deliveries. Prior to securing the truck, member agencies were each making the trip into Jamestown to pick up food items, many times with volunteers and borrowed trucks.

Ruth Kelly, coordinator of the Ripley Food Pantry, praised the new arrangement in her letter to Anne Julian of the Food Bank of WNY in Buffalo: “Please accept our true appreciation; we no longer need to haul 2,000 lbs. or more of food through Jamestown’s icy, snowy streets in winter weather in an open trailer….It has made such a difference to all the rural pantries.”

Kathy Schroeder of the Sinclairville Food Cupboard

adds, “We want to let you know that we hope this service continues as it has been a tremendous difference and has made the process much easier for us!”

Donor-advised funds are an integral part of the charitable giving options available at the CRCF. They provide an immediate tax-deduction to the donor and provide flexibility in responding to emerging and immediate needs. Donors maintain the role of advisor and make recommendations for charitable distributions.

Many times they have “saved the day,” and they continue to offer invaluable resources aimed at enriching the quality of life in the Chautauqua region.

Fighting hunger is an ongoing upstream challenge and one of many daily challenges facing the Chautauqua region.

The CRCF welcomes new and experienced “rowers” to their donor base. You can chart your own course or join one already underway. Either way, an enthusiastic and grateful “welcome aboard” awaits your arrival.

The Chautauqua Region Community Foundation is a 501 (c)(3), tax-exempt organization that serves to benefit the Chautauqua region through grant and scholarship funding. It has been a trusted philanthropic partner since 1978 and seeks through its partnerships to build a better community for the future. For more information, call 716661-3390.

A ‘Sweet Spot’ For Charity

Fredonia Mayor Keefe Proclaims Feb. 3 “UAA Day”

Contributed Article United Arts Appeal

by Patricia Pihl Star Staff Writer

“What are we collecting for this week?” It’s a question owners Darlene and Tim Wendell often hear from the regulars who frequent their cafe and bakery in Mayville.

In the three months since its opening, the customers of A Sweet Spot have raised close to $1,500 for eight charities.

It’s a simple, painless process-those who wish to give merely toss their loose change into a donation jar next to the register to add to the biweekly or monthly contribution.

Last December, customers raised $411 for the Mayville Food Pantry at a time when pantries are traditionally depleted.

Darlene says she will leave a brochure next to the jar with information on the organization customers are supporting.

In January, the collections benefited the Children’s Love Fund. Darlene adds, “We know people who have been recipients. It’s an organization right here in Mayville.”

The Children’s Love Fund provides financial support to

Chautauqua County families who have children with long-term illnesses to help with travel expenses, meals and lodging.

“We are always looking for local charities--by local we can mean Mayville, Chautauqua County or Western New York,” Darlene explains. “We have a running list of worthy organizations that we regularly check out.”

During breast cancer awareness month in October, customers supported Lily’s Hope at WCA Hospital. “We talk as a group (our staff ) and decide on the charities,” says Darlene.

They have also taken suggestions from customers, but only give to organizations and not to individuals or families.

Looking over a list of organizations her customers have supported and the number of dollars raised since opening, Darlene says, “As you can see, the giving has been pretty consistent.”

Several factors contributed to Mayor Stephen W. Keefe’s decision to recognize the United Arts Appeal of Chautauqua County and proclaim Friday, “None of this is February 3 as “UAA Day” in our money--it’s our the Village of Fredonia. customers who are giving.

“War Horse,” nominated for six Academy Awards including Best Picture, is the next featured film at the 1891 Fredonia Opera House. It will be screened on Sat., Feb. 4, at 8 p.m. and Tues., Feb. 7, at 7:30 p.m. as part of the Opera House Cinema Series.

Directed by Steven Spielberg, “War Horse” is an epic adventure for audiences of all ages.

Set against a sweeping canvas of rural England and Europe during the First World War, “War Horse” begins with the remarkable friendship between a horse named Joey and a young man named Albert (Jeremy Irvine), who tames and trains him. When they are forcefully parted, the film follows the extraordinary journey of the horse as he moves through the war, changing and inspiring the lives of all those he meets – British cavalry, German soldiers, and a French

farmer and his granddaughter – before the story reaches its emotional climax in the heart of No Man’s Land.

“War Horse” is one of the great stories of friendship and war – a successful book, it was turned into a hugely successful theatrical hit in London’s West End and on Broadway, where it won the Tony Award for Best Play. An odyssey of joy and sorrow, passionate friendship and high adventure, it relates the First World War as experienced through Joey’s journey.

It is, at is most basic, a tale of loyalty, hope and tenacity.

Lisa Kennedy, in the Denver Post, calls the film “robustly entertaining.” Joe Morgenstern, in the Wall Street Journal, calls it “a film that may stay in the mind’s eye longer than it lingers in the heart.” Richard Roeper calls it “a gorgeous, breathtaking, epic adventure.” Kyle Smith, in the New York Post, says “those who say they don’t make ‘em like they used to must now

fall silent.” Richard Corliss, in TIME, adds “boldly emotional, nakedly heartfelt, ‘War Horse’ will leave only the stoniest hearts untouched.” Rated PG13 for intense sequences of war violence, “War Horse” runs 146 minutes.

Tickets to the Opera House Cinema Series are available at the door for $7 (adults), $6.50 (seniors & Opera House members) and $5 (students & children) the night of each screening. For more information, call the Opera House Box Office at 716-679-1891. The Series continues with the Sigmund Freud-Carl Jung drama, “A Dangerous Method,” on Feb. 18 & 21.

Flavor of the Week – Rocco’s

By Dusten Rader Entertainment Editor

A well kept secret treasure lies hidden not too far from downtown Fredonia in the form of a restaurant that offers guests fine Italian dining in a quaint casual atmosphere. Rocco’s restaurant and cocktail lounge is the perfect place to enjoy a satisfying dinner in a peaceful setting where good conversation, laughs and friendship are made.

Rocco’s is in its 11th year of operation by owner Michael Doino. He decided to open the restaurant at the location of Chimera’s restaurant which originally opened in 1934.

He decided to name the place Rocco’s after his father.

“Chimera’s had been here since 1934 so we decided to use the name Rocco’s because it was time for a change,” said Doino.

“They were wildly popular in the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s because they had very little competition and especially no Italian competition.”

Before Doino opened the restaurant he was in sales for the steel industry. But, he was ready to make a career change and wanted to make a move back to New York. Doino’s cousin Darick Diefendorf is the head chef at Rocco’s.

According to Doino he never would have opened the restaurant if it wasn’t for his close friendship with Diefendorf.

“I was always a bit of a foodie,” said Doino. “But, I was ready for a change and I wouldn’t have ever gone into this business without my cousin Darick whose been the head chef since the beginning. He’s one of the main reasons for our success.

He is an incredibly consistent chef who learned his trade the right way by working his way up from being a dishwasher to head chef.”

The menu is an original creation by Darick and Doino that includes a variety of Italian specialties and seafood.

For the most part the majority of the menu is homemade from scratch. In addition to the regular menu there are also daily specials on appetizers, soups and entrees. Plus, on Thursday, Friday and Saturday there are usually specials on unique fish and seafood dishes so there is always something new to try.

“We have a fresh fish that comes in every Thursday,” said Doino. “And, it is available through Saturday but they usually sell out before then.”

There are a number of items on the menu that locals really enjoy. They enjoy them so much so that they have their favorite and almost never or-

der anything else. One of those favorites is Rocco’s Signature

Soup with roasted red peppers and crab meat.

“We had to put the soup on the menu because people would call to see if we had it and decide not to come in if we didn’t,” said Doino.

For first timers who enjoy seafood Doino recommends trying the Shrimp Saute which includes jumbo shrimp served over penne pasta with artichoke hearts, mushrooms, sun dried tomatoes, scallions

and a white wine garlic butter sauce. Or for those who enjoy beef he recommends the NY Strip Steak which includes a 16 ounce steak cut in house then grilled to order and served with vegetables with a choice of starch.

Doino’s favorite thing on the menu is the Linguine with clam sauce. He enjoys the red sauce which includes tomato

sauce with garlic and fresh herbs. There is also the option to have a white wine butter garlic and fresh herbs version of the dish.

The chicken, veal and eggplant Parmesans are a local favorite.

These delicious entrees are freshly breaded, served with red sauce, melted cheeses and served over pasta. There are also traditional dinners like the pasta Alfredo that is made to order with a creamy Parmesan Alfredo. And, all entrees are served with a salad, fresh bread and Rocco’s signature Red Pepper Pesto then garnished with Parmesan and parsley.

Desserts are also available but according to Doino guests usually don’t order them because the portion size of the meals are very filling. But, if guests have a sweet tooth there are a number of cheesecakes to choose from like the turtle and Bailey’s.

With a great menu filled with a variety of fine Italian dishes and a casual dining experience that is sure to please, Rocco’s is a place that every Chautauqua County resident should try at least once.

“The most endearing thing about Rocco’s is the food and that we’re not corporate and never will be,” said Doino.

Rocco’s is located at 44 Orchard Street in Fredonia and is open from 4 to 9 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday and 4 to 10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday.

Movie Review - Temple Grandin Star Staff Writer Amber Rinehart

Star Rating: 4.5/5 This week I am venturing away from the theatre marquee and reviewing a movie from 2010. In my last review, I stated that if you were interested in a movie about autism or the way the human brain works, you should check out Temple Grandin.

Temple Grandin is a true story based on the life and work of Temple Grandin. Although it won numerous Emmy’s and is a critically acclaimed film, very few people saw it, because it was made for TV and only ran on HBO. While watching the 2010 Emmy Awards (I rarely watch this ceremony, I just happened to catch it that year) I noticed that almost every award category had either a nomination or win for this film that I had never heard of. During each acceptance speech for the film, the award winner would thank Grandin and this woman in the audience would stand up and wave.

“Who in the world is this woman and what is this movie?” It won Emmys for Outstanding Movie, Outstanding Direction of a Movie, Outstanding Leading Actress in a Movie for Claire Danes, Outstanding Editing, Outstanding Music, Outstanding Supporting Actor for David Strathairn and Outstanding Supporting Actress for Julia Ormond. It was also nominated for virtually very other award.

I decided to look up who Temple Grandin was. Lots of people have movies made about them, but I have rarely seen a person being honored the way Grandin was. For any readers that are naive about Grandin the way I was, she is a truly amazing and inspiring person.

At a very young age, she was diagnosed with autism and was suggested to be put into an institution, which was a common occurrence at the time. Her mother refused to give up hope and provided her with the best care and education possible. Defying all of the odds, Grandin went on to not only graduate high school, but also receive a bachelor’s degree with Franklin Pierce College, a master’s degree from Arizona State University and a doctoral degree from The University of Illinois.

Grandin is currently a professor of animal science at

Colorado State University and an expert in animal behavior.

Specializing in the beef industry, Grandin designed a humane and efficient slaughter system that is used by more than half of the beef houses in the country.

In addition to her work with animals, she is an advocate for autism and is considered the voice of the disorder. What is most amazing about Grandin is not that she was able to become a doctor and national leader in animal behavior and humane practices, but that she is one of the first people to ever be able to explain how the brain of an autistic person works.

With a disorder that so little is known about, Grandin has been able to blow the doors off of autism and allow for real understanding of how and why autism works the way it does. The tag line of the movie “Autism gave her a vision. She gave it a voice” perfectly sums up her life and her achievements.

I know it may be unusual to spend more then half of the review not even talking about the film, but what makes this film so amazing is the person behind it. Temple Grandin the person is an amazing woman and Temple Grandin the movie is a fitting tribute and an amazing film.

What tends to happen with movies that deal with subjects such as autism, is that it can be presented in a way that is cliche, goes for the easy emotions and presents the person and disorder as somewhat of a caricature.

Claire Danes, who won both an Emmy and a Golden Globe for her role, plays the title role of Temple Grandin.

Some people have criticized Danes’ performance as being too quirky and over-the-top, but when you look at the way the real Grandin speaks and moves, it is indistinguishable from Danes. Grandin herself commented that when viewing the movie, she left as if she was watching herself.

Danes was a great choice to

play Temple, not only because of her ability to portray the character in an amazingly accurate way, but also because of her respect. She presents the character in a realistic and human way.

You can tell through her performance that she feels a sense of responsibility to the role and that she really believes in the character and the person she is portraying.

Danes is also a very talented actress that is not over-exposed in Hollywood. Best known for her role in the short-lived, yet awarding winning show My So-Called Life, which won her her first Golden Globe (which she also won for Temple Grandin and most recently for her role in Homeland), Danes’ performance allows you to see her as the real Temple Grandin, not as Claire Danes playing Grandin.

Anytime an actor can do this, it makes for a much stronger performance and film.

Although Danes is the primary star, the film also features other amazing performances from David Stratharin as Grandin’s teacher Dr. Carlock, Julia Ormond her mother and Catherine O’Hara as Grandin’s Aunt Ann. What I think is most heartwarming about this film is the role of these side characters.

None of them ever gave up on Grandin and each believed she was capable of something more.

This is such a wonderful message that the film presents in a beautiful and subtle way. It makes you wonder how different the world would be if any one of these real-life people had ever given up hope and taken the easy way out. One person can make a difference in a life and the movie Temple Grandin is one of those rare films that makes you feel good at the end. It makes you want to do something special and believe that the world can be a better place.

Obviously, Temple Grandin is one of my favorite movies and I cannot recommend it enough. I literally could talk about it for pages, but instead of reading this, I highly encourage you to go pick up the movie.

Most movies are simply made to make money. Every now and then a film is made to tell an amazing story that deserves to be to told. Every now and then a film is made that actually helps society and moves us forward as humans.

This is one of those films.

Artist Profile – Gina V

By Dusten Rader Entertainment Editor

Being raised in Fredonia Gina was exposed to many genres of music. So, she eventually began writing alternative rock, country and blues songs of her own. Blues quickly became her passion and she decided to work with bands who played in Jamestown. But, her first opportunity to become a member of a working band came when she was 17. And, since then her career has grown exponentially.

“I come from a musical family who always had singing and musical instruments playing at family gatherings,” said Gina.

“My mother taught me to sing.

My brother Chuck Vecchio is a very well accomplished sound man. He introduced me to musicians who were making a living out of music and because of him I was able to work with them.”

Throughout her career as a musician she has had the opportunity to play in some great venues like Buffalo’s Lafeyette Tap Room and annually at Fredonia’s Red, White and Blues Festival. But, the start of 2012 brought on some great forward moving changes. She is currently working with local band Coal Train.

Gina with Coal Train’s first show together was at Rookies on the Lake in Dunkirk on January 29. The show was met

with great success. The venue was so packed that the band was asked to continue for an extra hour resulting in a total of four hours of music. One of the reasons the show was so well received was because there was already some chemistry between Gina and the members of Coal Train. She had previously worked with the drummer Jon Washburn and the guitar player Mark Bunce in the band Gina and the Blues Keepers.

“It was a reunification of a family after three years of being apart,” said Gina. “To be there at Rookies on the Lake on Sunday was enlightening to say the least. I was so humbled and I am so grateful to those who came out to support this new venture. The audience was very happy and told us that we took a leap and they were here to catch us.”

The show combines vocalist Stephanie Rogers with Gina’s vocals and stage presence.

Throw in Paul Sweat on rhythm guitar and vocals, drummer Jon Washburn, guitar player Mark Bunce and bass player Hal Kwasniewski and the audience is met with a wall of sound that can’t be ignored.

Plus, add Steve Blount sound guy, road manager and website administrator to the mix and fans are guaranteed to have a high quality experience.

“The band was like a well

oiled machine,” said Blount.

“Stephanie and Gina is such an interesting combination.

The dichotomy between them couldn’t be more night and day.

Their differences compliment each other very well.”

Coal Train’s drummer Jon Washburn’s 10 year friendship with Gina has produced a great

musical relationship in which both parties are very happy with the results.

“The Rookies on the Lake show was golden,” said Washburn.

“We had a beautiful crowd and I couldn’t have asked for anything to be better. We had a magical night that was really fabulous. Everyone in the band

had a great time playing and it really energized us for our next performance. Plus, it’s a luxury to have the two girls up on stage singing together.”

Gina is also writing songs for her first original music CD. She picked up her guitar eight months ago and decided it was time to put something together that represented her as a musician. She is taking lessons from Barry Edwards of Crino Music in attempt to master the instrument. Since then she has written 17 songs that she will record with Coal Train and release the album early in 2013.

Some of the tracks to look forward to seeing live before the album is released are the title track “Just a Dream”, “Woulda Coulda Shoulda”, “Busy Being Me”, “Draw the Line”, “Not Your Problem” and “Last Call”.

But, in the meantime fans can check out one of Gina’s singles entitled “Firefly” that was released in 2011 is available for download on Itunes. The music of “Firefly” was written by Bill Smith and Gina wrote the lyrics and melody.

“My original material doesn’t fit into a style of genre,” said Gina. “I don’t really have an agenda when I go to write. I just start to play. The melody will come first and the lyrics after. The songs aren’t so much about what I’ve experienced

either. They are about things that I’ve heard about that hit home with me. But, I have to admit “Firefly” is solely about my childhood. It is about the Fredonia/Dunkirk area, the innocence of childhood and how we long for it. To just be happy and enjoy the simple things in life like chasing fireflies around the campfire at night. I also wrote “Busy Being Me” for my father.”

Gina has had the opportunity to play with many local musicians who have been an inspiration to her throughout her musical career. One of those shows was when she opened for Big Leg Emma at the Donna the Buffalo show at Club Infinity in May of 2011.

“That was the first time I played guitar in front of anybody and here I was at Club Infinity,” said Gina. “Bill Smith accompanied me and I had the full support of John Streed of Blue Moon Management, promoter Ross Catalino, Big Leg Emma and Charity Nuse cheering me on. I truly believe that has a lot to do with the original boost that I could do this.”

That support Gina received also inspired her to start a page on facebook that unifies musicians in Chautauqua County. The page can be found here: facebook.com/

“I have a passion for uniting the musicians in our area,” said Gina. “So, I started the page because I thought it would be a nice place for the musicians from the North county to interact with those from the South county. There are currently more than 140 members and they are a very supportive group. It’s exciting to see that the bands are getting along and meeting each other.”

Gina also believes in supporting local businesses and venues. So, she recently teamed up with Lisa Clark of Eye Candy in Fredonia regarding items

from the store will be available for purchase at the merch table during shows. And, there will be merch available in Eye Candy as well. She also supports the venues she plays at like the Kangaroo Cafe.

Gina with Coal Train’s next show will be at Rough Kutts Tavern in South Dayton on February 4 at 9 p.m. and Gina will be subbing for Stephanie during this show.

“Come summer Stephanie may have to take a maternity leave,” said Gina. “But, with her permission we will continue to book shows and we will look forward to her return.”

However, before summer begins there will be a few shows where fans can catch the two on stage together. The next show is scheduled for March 2 at the Good Time Saloon in Jamestown presented by Blue Moon Management’s John Streed.

“I really want to thank John Streed and Charity Nuse for listening to my music early in my career and telling me that I could do it,” said Gina. “I also want to thank the venues who have been supportive like Rookies on the Lake, 41 West, Willow Creek Winery and Merritt Estate.”

They also have a show the following day on March 3 at 41 West in Fredonia. Gina will then play with a special guest and Kev Rowe of Big Leg Emma at Woodsongs Coffeehouse Radio Hour WRFA LP 107.9 FM at the Labyrinth Press Company in Jamestown on March 29. And, she will play again for The Woodsongs Coffeehouse Radio Hour Finale show at The Southern Tier Brewing Company on June 3.

But, the fun doesn’t stop there, the band will also be making at appearance in the Gazebo in the Village Park of Fredonia on August 8 and the White Inn of

Though it’s always the people you’re with who make it possible to be at home anywhere in the world, the small things make an ordinary house feel like it’s the place you’re supposed to be. I can’t wait to spend more time in my craft room, creating pages with supplies I couldn’t travel with, and making the most of the spring-like weather in Silver Creek. I’m still getting reacquainted with human contact after spending so many hours

alone with my thoughts in a car.

The solitude was nice, but it’s good to be home.

This week’s $ pick : Starbucks Coffee. The only location in Chautauqua County is on the Fredonia State College campus, and when I’m in town I prefer the Upper Crust Bake Shop (27 East Main Street, Fredonia, (716) 672-2253) or Green Tea Room (12 Park Place, Fredonia, (716) 6722555, thegreentearoom.com) to get my caffeine fix. On the road, though, Starbucks can’t be beat for their coffee, which is far superior to any truck stop swill. If you’d like something milder, try their new Blonde Roast.

Scrapbooking Today It’s ALWAYS the Little Things

By Anne Walterich Contributing Writer

Add this to the list of things I never thought I would say: It’s February in Chautauqua County, and I’m glad to be here. I’ve had the privilege of spending January in Fort Myers Beach, FL, and was reluctant to leave the heat, tropical breezes and white sand beach for ice, freezing temperatures and permanent salt stains on my pant legs.

It’s hard for me to believe that my working life between 27 and 30 consisted of several cross-country road trips and even more time traveling between airports. It was a lot like “Up In the Air,” sadly without George Clooney. That nomadic existence, though fine for a few days, is thankfully no longer a part of my daily routine.

I undertook the two-day drive north over the weekend, and watched the palm trees give way to the moss-covered oaks, finally to bare - limbed maples. I could tell I was get-

ting closer to home not by the GPS, but by the number of Tim Hortons per square mile.

The stretch between Cleveland and Silver Creek was the worst, with icy roads slowing the Thruway travel to about 45 mph. I was exhausted, frustrated and jittery from two double espressos.

I crossed the tracks into Sunset Bay and found that I was surprisingly happy to be here.

I missed this place. There’s more to this area than the beach and the camaraderie of the neighborhood. It’s my home.

Trudging inside the house was a welcome relief. I was thrilled to see Jim, the bathroom and the couch, in that order. One beer and 14 hours of sleep later, I awoke to the warmth and comfort of familiar surroundings.

As I went about my day, each “new” discovery made me even happier to be here.

Though it would have kept in the spirit of my “Project : Annie” album of everyday life, I decided to create a 12” X 12”

page to commemorate the little things I wasn’t aware brought me joy.

The background paper (manufacturer unknown) in yellow contrasts with, therefore highlighting, the blue in my photos. The mat was an ordinary piece of 8.5” X 11” copy paper I had coffee - dyed for another project. I inked the edges of the paper with Ink It UP! pigment ink in Metallic Gold and adhered it to the larger sheet. I added an anchoring line with a gold strip that came from a large junk mail envelope I had saved, to keep the mat from looking as if it was just “floating” on the page. Next I added my 2” X 3” photos, putting the vertically-oriented ones down first as a base, with the two horizontal ones positioned above.

For embellishments, I added the Creating Keepsakes green flower rub-on to balance the visual weight of the page as well as to tie in with the green

of my plant photo on the right. I added the title with Creating Keepsakes rub-on letters, but felt like the space to the left of the “Now” was missing something. I added the small bird rub-ons from American Crafts miniMARKS Kate Sidekicks collection, cutting off the “bird” text beneath the doodle. (If you can’t tell that those are birds, then you have bigger problems and should not be making scrapbook pages.) They symbolize travel, but also nesting, and frame out the photos as well.

Then came the metallic flow-

Keeping the Faith

#136 Dear Pastor, it seems that my prayers don’t get answered. What am I doing wrong?

By Rev. Michael Lokietek Family Church of Chautauqua County

Last week we saw that not praying in God’s will would hinder your prayers. The Bible

says that all of God’s promises are contained in His Word.

That means that we must base our prayers on these promises if we want answers. We also saw that God wants us to “remind” Him of His promises (John 14:26). This week we’ll continue our discussion on the importance of faith in getting our prayers answered.

In the Book of Mark 11:24, Jesus said,”…Whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them,

and you will have them.” In this scripture Jesus tells us that answered prayed requires more than just desire…it requires belief. While you may have a legitimate prayer which you based on God’s Word, God cannot answer it if you don’t believe that He will!

The Bible says that faith actually brings those things hoped for (prayed for) into reality (Hebrews 11:1). Faith knows, beyond a doubt, that God will do what He says…regardless

of the natural circumstances.

Hebrews 11:6 says that, “Without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.” Faith is simply trusting God to do what He says He will. While this may sound simple…it can be a challenge.

While faith pleases God, it doesn’t please the devil!

When you take a faith stand in a particular area of your

life, Satan will often throw everything contrary to your stand to get you to doubt God and His promises. Although these things may come at you, it is important that you resist speaking against your own prayers. Watch what you say! For example, if you are praying for a better marriage, you must be careful not to speak bad things about your spouse, no matter how tempting. Asking God to bless your marriage and then

complaining about it isn’t the God-kind of faith. In Mark 11:22, Jesus says, “Have the faith of God. For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast in to the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will come to pass, he will have whatever he says.”

Next week…more on prayer.

seen men who gorge themselves with food who later scorn their wives and speak sharply to them. If you abuse food or anything else you will abuse people. Your flesh will be like an out of control briar patch: Thorns will flourish everywhere and people will get hurt whenever they are around you.

Here is the solution for powerlessness for the Christian: Prayer and fasting. Jesus said in Mark 9:29, “…this kind can come forth by nothing except prayer and fasting.” There are certain things that can only happen by taking time to make the flesh suffer. Fasting

is not a way to get God to give you things or to make Him love you more. It is a way to subdue the flesh to give greater control to the Holy Spirit.

It is a way to control your appetites. Fasting displays a greater hunger for God than natural things. Adam and Eve sinned because of their lust for food. If you make your flesh go hungry, you will learn to control it when it wants to have wrong sexual relationships, addictions, and wrong entertainment. When we take some time to fast and pray, we are investing into this revival that is upon us.

Weekly Word Flesh Control

Rev. Tim Stahlman Family Church of the Southern Tier

If your flesh is not put under control then the Holy Spirit will never gain control of your life. If the flesh never suffers then the Spirit will never prosper. Often we forget that the greatest antagonist to the Spirit is not the devil; it’s the

flesh. Seldom do Christians accurately discern the voice of God because the voice of their flesh is so dominant.

We should be trained by the Spirit, not trained by the flesh.

Christians are calling on God for revival but are they willing to fast and pray? Every move of the Spirit is paid for by somebody. There will not be a revival of the Spirit until there is a war declared on the flesh. In these days, God longs to do amazing things for His people. But this move of God will require a greater level of consecration and dedication on the part of the Elect.

1 Corinthians 9:25 in the Am-

plified Bible says, “Now every athlete who goes into training conducts himself temperately and restricts himself in all things…” The Bible likens our walk with God to an athlete preparing for a race. Any runner knows that they cannot do whatever they want with their body and expect to be a winner. The same is true with God. We think we can eat any way we want to and still be in God’s perfect will. God’s plan for our bodies is temperance.

This means to be restrained in diet, attitude, and action. If we eat recklessly, then you will allow your flesh to manipulate you. You will sit down to read

your Bible and your flesh will demand a snack. You will take time to pray and your flesh will tell you that watching TV would be better. Your flesh will prefer a nice summer morning over being in church.

Your flesh will always distract you if you are always listening and obeying its voice.

I have known many people who neglect their bodies yet are seeking healing from God. They eat with reckless abandon and wonder why God isn’t healing them. It isn’t because God doesn’t want to heal them; it’s because the flesh took control and hindered the Holy Spirit. I’ve

Q&A The eyes are key to mood in macaws Q: My macaw is the most unpredictable pet I’ve ever known. I can’t ever tell whether he plans to bite me (and he draws blood when he does) or snuggle. Can a bird have mental illness — is he bi-polar? — via email A: Sure, a bird can have a brain that isn’t functioning properly. But you’re bird’s brain is just fine. Parrots can be loving, cuddly, playful or contemplative one minute, and demanding, aloof, manic or peevish the next. Sharing space with a parrot is like living with another human: Sometimes, you just have to pick your moments and know when to back off.

Some of these moods are pretty obvious. Other times, though, behavior signs may be more subtle, and the failure to heed these clues may earn you a nasty bite.

You need to watch your pet’s body language. Parrots have keen eyesight and often stare at something that fascinates or frightens them, using one eye and tipping the head, or using both eyes for a head-on look.

When you see that your bird is fixated on something, follow that line of vision. A relaxed body posture accompanies a calm, curious bird’s staring, and a more defensive or aggressive body language demonstrates fright. Most often, a lockedon look is a sign of fascination: Like the youngest children, birds can become attracted by something colorful.

Birds are able to control their irises, shrinking and enlarging their pupils rapidly in a display that’s called “flashing” or “pinning.”

You have to read the whole bird to put the message in its proper context. Birds may flash their eyes when they’re excited or when they’re angry. Flashing accompanied by aggressive posturing, such as tail-fanning, signifies a bird who’s bound to escalate his warnings — and maybe even bite — if not left alone.

Consider flashing to be the physical display of strong emotion — anything from the “I want to kill you” vibes of an angry or aggressive bird to the “Hey there, cutie” of an infatuated bird. — Gina Spadafori Do you have a pet question? Send it to petconnection@gmail.com.

Take precautions to prevent a missing pet bird

By Gina Spadafori Universal Uclick

W

ith all the pets I’ve had in my life, you’d think I’d have seen just about everything. And for the most part, that’s true. But there’s one thing I haven’t dealt with because I’ve been both careful and lucky: I’ve never had a pet go missing for good.

I’ve come close a couple of times. A few years back, I was staying at my brother’s house, while buying one home and selling another, when my smallest dog slipped through a gap in the fence. Fortunately, he immediately latched on to some nearby children who took him home and called the number on his ID tag.

Not long after moving into the new home, I lost my parrot, but that too ended happily. As with most successful recoveries of lost pets, it was the things I’d done before Eddie got out that brought him back home again. Eddie didn’t fly away to a likely death because his wings were clipped to keep him from all but the lowest of flight patterns — and because we had a relationship of trust that extended beyond my front door.

Here is what you need to know if your pet bird takes wing: D Prepare for possible loss Have your bird microchipped. Keep The relationship you have with your bird may his wings clipped to prevent him from help you get him to come back to you. flying away, and make sure everyone in the family knows to keep doors and D Use the hose, cautiously unscreened windows closed.

Both men and women say there are some things dogs do that they wish other people would do, too. n It seems some people are not dreaming of getting a puppy as a Valentine’s Day gift, but rather wishing their human mates were more like a dog. And their dogs are helping them look for mates! According to an American Kennel Club survey: • 25 percent of women polled wished men were in a perennially good mood, like a dog.

• 15 percent of men polled wished women were just as happy to stay home as go out on the town — as a dog would be.

• 58 percent of men said a puppy is a foolproof way of meeting women in a park.

• 46 percent of women said they’d stop and talk to anyone with a cute puppy. n Children under the age of 5 left unattended with a dog have the highest chance of being bit. A study conducted by the University of Colorado looked at data of 537 dog-bite cases from 2003 to 2008. Children under 5 accounted for 68 percent of dog-bite cases, and most of the bites were by a familiar dog. n It’s natural for a dog to bark when a stranger comes to the door. In the case of the mail carrier, that stranger comes almost every day. The dog barks to alert the family and to warn the carrier to go away. From the dog’s point of view, it was his brave warning that drove the stranger away. He doesn’t realize the mail carrier’s just going to the next house on the route. Over time, the dog’s reaction intensifies as he tries harder to send a message to the stranger who just doesn’t seem to understand. As the dog becomes more and more worked up over time, the potential for a bite increases, with many mail carriers injured as a result.

At 13-1, Red Raiders Visit Will North, Site Of Last WNY Loss

DOWNTOWN FREDONIA 38 Temple Street 673-3086

Mon–Wed 8 am–6 pm Th & Fri 8 am–8 pm Sat 9 am–4 pm Sun Closed

Star Sports Editor

Come Friday night, it will be 361 days since Jamestown’s last Section VI loss.

They’ll have won 22 of their last 24 games, including some rather memorable victories over Niagara Falls, Irondequoit and Christian Brothers Academy (Syracuse) en route to the state final. Sprinkled in between were a pair of losses to traditional megapowers Mt. Vernon and Kingston.

But again, come Friday night, the Red Raiders will make the trip up to Williamsville North High School, the site of their last league — and sectional — loss to face sophomore standout Sterling Taplin and the Spartans.

“It will be a great test for us,” Jamestown head coach Ben Drake said.

“We know we’ll get their best effort and know it’s a game they’re looking forward to.”

It’s been sort of an up-and-down year for Williamsville North, who figured to be in the mix with Jamestown for the league crown. They’ve lost to Frontier twice by a combined five points and had the Red Raiders locked in a tight battle a month ago before Jamestown finally pulled away in the second half.

Taplin, a point guard has been under the watchful eye of University at Buffalo basketball coach Reggie Witherspoon, dumped 25 despite the loss. In last year’s overtime win for North, Taplin scored a gamehigh 35 as a freshman.

“We did an excellent job on him for three quarters back in Jamestown,” Drake said. “But he got it going in the fourth.

“With a player like him, it takes team defense to stop him. Everyone has to be aware of where he is on the floor

at all times.”

The game within the game will certainly be Taplin against Tommy Campion, the point guard and undisputed leader of the Red Raiders.

Campion, a junior, has been electric this season, spurting Jamestown on both sides of the floor with his quick hands lightning-fast speed. He’s the backbone to the Jamestown vaunted transition offense.

“It’s a matchup of the two best players in the league,” Drake said.

“Before the season, everyone was saying how Taplin can carry them to a league title. But, Tommy’s really been great all season long. I wouldn’t trade him for anyone.

“And since they’re both point guards, it certainly makes it more interesting. It’s a game I know Tommy is looking forward to and it’s a game that motivates a player to get better in the offseason.”

Of course, Jamestown will certainly look to get on the run against North.

The Red Raiders treat missed shots like turnovers and once the outlet

pass is in the hands of Campion, there’s been no stopping Jamestown on the run.

“It’s always a key for us to get out in transition,” Drake said. “It’s a way for us to score points in bunches.”

Meanwhile, for Williamsville North, with just two weeks left in the season, any hopes of a division title are long gone for the Spartans (9-5, 7-3). They currently sit as the No. 6 seed in AA Tournament, are in search of a hot streak. The No. 6 seed — as of right now — would mean a first round date with Niagara Falls. You can be sure the Spartans would like to get out of that position as quickly as possible.

Jamestown (13-1, 10-0), on the other hand, has continued to roll their way through the ECIC schedule and only has Frontier left in their way to grab a third straight title. They breezed

by Orchard Park on Monday night 86-50 and had 11 Red Raiders get on the score sheet.

“I liked the way we played,” Drake said. “It was close at halftime but it was more of a case of shots not fall-

ing. Once the shots went down, we pulled away.”

Through 10 league games, not one ECIC team has been able to finish with eight or less points. Clarence, who trailed by as many as 27 in the second half last Friday, was able to close the gap to as few as five, but still fell short thanks to free throws from Campion and Kareem Walker.

The only other team to keep it at single-digits (also a nine-point difference), was this Williamsville North squad.

Campion and Taplin will make for a tremendous battle, but don’t be surprised if this game is determined by the role players. The two went toeto-toe a month ago, but Campion was able to rely on a surrounding cast led by sophomore forward Quin Lee Yaw, who had a team-high 18 points.

“We’ll continue to do what we’ve been doing because it’s worked,” Drake said. “Our strength is shooting and it forces other things to open up.

Really, we’ll take what the defense gives us.”

Dunkirk Falls Apart In Second Half, Olean All But Wraps Up Division

Inside This Week

By Chris Winkler Star Sports Editor

Earlier this year, Dunkirk held with the No. 2 Class B team in the state for a full 32 minutes, but came up empty. With a return trip to Olean Tuesday night, the Marauders had a chance to even things up in the standings in CCAA I. While holding strong for 16 minutes, Dunkirk couldn’t keep up with the Huskies and fell 65-50. In all likelihood, Olean (13-1, 8-0) will move up to being the top-ranked Class B team because Burke Catholic (who was No. 1) lost last weekend.

Sam Eckstrom led all scorers with 19 points for Olean. Fellow sophomore Wil Bathurst had 18.

For Dunkirk (12-2, 7-2), they lose for just the second time this year to the only team that’s had their number. Of their 12 wins, no team has been within single-digits and only three have kept the game under 20.

Dunkirk kept it within a couple throughout the first half and trailed 28-27 at halftime. But, things fell apart in the third quarter and Olean stretched their lead to 11.

Jacob Lockett and Mike Donaldson had 12 points each to lead the Marauders. They’re back on the court Saturday against Gowanda.

Chautauqua Lake 53, Forestville 27 Dan Gleason broke out of a shooting slump and the Chautauqua Lake Thunderbirds (6-8, 5-3) cruised to a 53-27 win over Forestville (4-10, 1-7) in CCAA III action Tuesday night.

Dan Gleason had 17 points on five three-pointers, four of which came in the second half, to lead Chautauqua Lake to the win. After going two weeks without a game, the Thunderbirds struggled mightily in a 74-44

loss to Westfield last week. Again, they came out cold, and led just 3-2 after the first quarter.

“We shot 4-for-29 in the first quarter and a half and then we decided to take the lid off the basket,” Chautauqua Lake head coach Chris Dole said.

The Thunderbirds did explode late in the second and carried it into the third where they led 42-17 after the first three stanzas, allowing for an easy fourth quarter.

Dan Gleason hadn’t scored more than seven points since the last time Chautauqua Lake played Forestville way back on Dec. 19. He picked a good night to heat up and jumpstart the Thunderbirds offense.

“We talked yesterday about how we felt he needed to get at least 10 points today,” Dole said. “And he responded in a big way both offensively and defensively with five steals and four rebounds.”

Sophomore Ian Clute added 13 points and 15 rebounds for his third double-double of the season. Second-leading scorer Jason McMahon finished with just two points but had nine rebounds and seven assists.

Chautauqua Lake is at Franklinville Friday night.

Nate Stott led Forestville with 12 points. He was the only Hornet in double-figures. Forestville plays next Friday night when they host Westfield.

Silver Creek 70, Cassadaga Valley 54 A big day from junior Zeddie Williams carried Silver Creek to a comfortable win over Cassadaga Valley. The Black Knights moved to 12-1 (8-1 CCAA II) on the year and one step closer to a division title. Silver Creek has three games remaining but owns a one-game lead (and tiebreaker) over Portville.

Steve Marcey had 13 points while Kaine Kettle and John Jimerson had eight each.

For the Cougars (7-8, 4-5), Dustin Schauman had another big game with 29 points, but it wasn’t enough for Cassadaga Valley. They also have three games left starting Friday night against Frewsburg Friday night.

St. Bonaventure Sports Information

ST. BONAVENTURE, N.Y. — Despite owning the thirdmost wins in the nation, the 20-2 St. Bonaventure women's basketball team just missed cracking the top-25 in the Associated Press Poll Monday for the first time in program history, checking in as the No. 26 team with 61 points.

The Bonnies — who sit atop the Atlantic 10 standings as the lone unbeaten team at 7-0 — were just nine points shy of No. 25 Texas Tech, which garnered 70. In last week's poll, 61 points would have placed Bona as the No. 23 team in country.

Only No. 1 Baylor (21-0) and No. 2 Notre Dame (21-1) have more victories than the Bonnies.

St. Bona is 9-2 against top-100 teams in the RPI (Ratings Percentage Index), which is a main ranking utilized by the NCAA Tournament selection committee when choosing

Furthermore, SBU's five wins against teams ranked between No. 26-50 in the RPI are tied for the most in the nation with No. 2 Notre Dame, No. 6 Kentucky and No. 11 Ohio State.

The Brown and White has won nine straight games — the second-longest winning streak in program history — and its 9-0 road record is the best in the nation.

Super Bowl: Food, Beer, Gambling And… Football

Chris Winkler COMMENTARY

You know, when I was growing up in the early ’90s, I honestly thought it was customary to see the Buffalo Bills in the Super Bowl. Fact is, when Jan. 30, 1994 rolled around, the Bills were embarking on their fourth straight Super Bowl and I was six years old, probably not fazed with the Bills remarkable run in the least bit.

8 Most likely, I didn’t know how sports worked yet, but cerest. tainly this Super Bowl thing he can’t be too tough to reach d if the Bills have done so four years in a row.

Fast forward 18 years and the same Bills have won all of one playoff game since, and another Super Bowl Sunday awaits us all with no sign of that charging Buffalo.

W-L But, that’s enough for a Bills0-0 are-really-bad argument. Be6-2 sides, Sunday is one of those days of the year to sit back and 6-3 watch football with a group of 5-4 friends and not think about 4-5 why the Bills aren’t playing.

Maybe that’s just because — 3-6 now at 24 years old — it ironi2-6 cally doesn’t seem humanly 0-9 feasible for the Bills to actually qualify for the game.

But what we do know is we’ll see a rematch of Super Bowl XLII, really one of the more entertaining Super Bowls W-L we’ve had over the last decade, 9-0 which actually says quite a lot.

7-1 Granted, I hate both teams — a 6-2 lot. But when it comes down to it, Sunday has become as 5-4 true of an American holiday as 4-5 you can imagine. Capitalism, 2-7 stuffing-your-face with every snack known to man, and of 1-8 course, gambling. Mixed in 1-8 there are family and friends and probably a lot of booze.

Remarkably, I find it interesting that I’m the only human being that is not involved in a square’s contest this year. Even my mom, who strange enough was complaining about the same thing, managed to find her way into some numbers.

Regardless, the Super Bowl must be Las Vegas’ equivalent to Christmas shopping for said holiday. Apparently, everyone has to do it. According to the Nevada Gaming Commission, $87.5 million was wagered on for the Super Bowl last year, easily the highest-wagered game on the sports calendar.

Never mind the New York Giants are three-point underdogs. Who the heck bets on that? Want to bet on the coin toss? Great, pick your poison: heads or tails? Giants or Patriots? Coin toss winner win or lose the game?

Who scores first? What will the first score be, a touchdown

or a safety/field goal? My personal favorite — which team will call the first timeout?

Will the Giants score first or punt first? Will the first Patriots first down come via the pass or run? Will there be more or less than 4.5 sacks in the game? (Degenerate Gambling Alert — that has to go over, right?)

Anyhow, there’s literally hundreds more involving the game and plenty more that don’t (including what color Madonna’s hair will be).

Of course, what makes this possible and is perhaps the most important part of Super Bowl Sunday is how far the game has come since 1967.

It’s really no longer about football.

Commercials have become to steal the Monday headlines, at least on every other network besides ESPN, of course. And with an estimated 100 million people watching, Super Bowl ads are about the only thing that hasn’t heard about the global recession.

According to MSNBC, a 30-second commercial slot now costs an average of $3.5 million. Just last year alone, the average 30-second slot was $3 million. The aforementioned Super Bowl 18 years ago, when the Bills lost for the fourth straight time, still had an average 30-second slot of less than $1 million, at $900,000.

It doesn’t take a math major to see this year’s price has just about quadrupled since then. Do the ads pay out in long run? Honestly, who has any idea, but I don’t think anybody is running out to grab a case of Bud Light sometime during the third quarter.

That is, unless of course you’re all out. According to TurboTax, Americans spend about $49.3 millions dollars on beer for the Super Bowl, comparable to about $54.3 million for Christmas. It’s the eighth-highest beer-consumption day in America behind some obvious warm-weather holidays of Fourth of July, Labor Day and Memorial Day But what are we washing down? According to L.A. Times, About 1.25 billion chicken wings are consumed on Super Bowl Sunday, or just about 100 million pounds.

In addition, another $1.02 billion will be spent on snack purchases.

Regardless, enjoy your food, enjoy your commercials.

As for the game itself — I know, after all that, what game? — I actually like the New England Patriots. I’ve gone back-and-forth with this one and convinced myself the Giants pass rush was just too much to contain.

But, I’ve wavered. I think we’re in for a good one and I see a Hollywood ending in favor of the Patriots this time. Tom Brady to Rob Gronkowski for a game-winning touchdown under a minute. Giants run out of time in search of a tying field goal — Patriots 27 Giants 24.

From Peace Corps To Baseball, Schmitt’s Seen It All Contributed Article Chautauqua Sports HOF

If experience is indeed the best teacher, Bob Schmitt should have a Ph.D. In no particular order, he’s served in the Peace Corps and in the Army Reserves, worked in a pickle factory, a steel mill foundry and in forestry, and been an insurance adjustor, a sporting goods salesman, a radio analyst for a Babe Ruth World Series and one of the best modified softball players of his era.

But a career change in his early 40s — Schmitt began teaching 10th-grade English at Frewsburg Central School in 1988 — also left an indelible mark on the Bears’ baseball program. During his 13 years as coach, Schmitt won state titles in 1991, 1995 and 1996 and compiled a 239-83 record, including 35-10 in the postseason.

Noted Rich Pinciaro, who played with Schmitt on the Jock Shop’s national champion modified softball teams of the early 1980s: “He’s a master.”

And that’s why he is one of six inductees into the Chautauqua Sports Hall of Fame who will be honored on Feb. 20 at the Lakewood Rod & Club.

The other inductees to be honored that night are Betty Bartkowiak, the late Ben Bishop, John O’Neil, Jim McElrath and Greg Peterson.

Schmitt grew up in Depew, attended Lancaster schools and spent countless hours playing three-man baseball in the sandlots near his home. He also learned the game from his father, Bob Sr., who would play catch with him in the backyard, but only as long as the younger Schmitt would throw accurately.

His baseball prowess continued in high school, but upon graduation in 1965, he decided to postpone entering Slippery Rock so that he could work in a steel mill to earn some money. Unfortunately, the company went on a strike and he was not yet in the union.

Schmitt contacted Slippery Rock, but the school had given his scholarship to someone else. That prompted him to apply to Jamestown Community College two weeks before school started and he ended up attending there for two years.

While at JCC, Schmitt played baseball and basketball. On the hardwood, he averaged 13 points per game his sophomore season and connected on 91 of 96 free throw attempts.

About that time, Schmitt, not wanting to be drafted, spent eight months in the Peace Corps, an experience that was cut short because he developed malaria. He was later drafted, but because he had been so sick he never did go to Vietnam, but entered the Army Reserves instead.

Schmitt’s first job after the Peace Corps was an insurance adjustor. He also later worked in forestry in the Chautauqua County, but his true passion was softball, a sport he dove into headfirst.

As the unofficial coach for the Jock Shop team, Schmitt, who began working at the store in 1977, organized trips to tournaments and ordered equipment. By the 1980s, the Jock Shop was one of the country’s best teams, capturing national titles in 1984 and 1985.

Schmitt was an integral part of those squads, one of which posted a 55-5 record.

Along the way, Schmitt also played hundreds of games in Jamestown, most notably for See-Zurh House in the Social League and, later, for the Jock Shop in the Tim Brown League. He also played for United Church Homes in the city Church League.

One of his most memorable performances came against the “King and his Court” when he went 3-for-3 and knocked in four runs in a 4-1 win over the legendary Eddie Feigner.

3

An all-around athlete, Schmitt continued to play recreational basketball and flag football, where he was a member of championship teams and the recipient of individual MVP honors, too.

“He’d come in the dugout and he’d say, ‘Go for the kill because these guys are ready to roll over,’” Pinciaro said. “He’d see something in a game that nobody else saw. … Nobody else was smart enough to do that. Nobody else had the get-up-andgo like he did.”

Schmitt continued to work at the Jock Shop until 1987 when he decided to change careers, exchanging his glove for a textbook. The trade turned out to be one of Schmitt’s best moves.

“The kids really like him,” said Pinciaro, whose son played for Schmitt. “ … I guess he knows how to give people a role.”

In addition to leading the Bears to the three state titles, Schmitt also guided them to three Far West Regional titles, five Far West Regional appearances and five Section 6 championships. In 1999, the Bears won a Class C sectional title despite entering the postseason as the No. 9 seed. His coaching prowess earned the Bears numerous league titles, sportsmanship awards and Post-Journal Coach of the Year honors.

Noted Judy Beckerink, who watched the players, including her two sons, interact with Schmitt: “He doesn’t yell to get his point across. They just know when he’s proud and when he’s unhappy, and they react very well to him. I couldn’t ask for a better male figure.”

Now retired from teaching, Schmitt lives in Frewsburg with his wife Jodi. He has two children, Corey Schmitt of Boca Raton, Fla., and Andrea Schmitt of Mayville.

The Chautauqua Sports Hall of Fame’s 31st annual induction dinner on Feb. 20 will begin with a hospitality session at 5 p.m. with dinner at 6:30. The guest speaker will be former Buffalo Bills wide receiver Andre Reed.

Tickets are $50 each and CSHOF members receive a $5 discount. Tickets are available at the Jock Shop, Matt’s News in Dunkirk and at the Fredonia Food Mart.

They are also available by contacting induction dinner chairman Chip Johnson at 485-6991.

NCSA To Hold Travel Team Registration, Seeks Qualified Coaches Contributed Article NCSA

DUNKIRK, N.Y. — The spring travel season for the competitive branch of the Northern Chautauqua Soccer Association (NCSA) will kick off soon. The travel club known as NC Concord competes in the Southern Tier Travel Soccer League (STTSL). This year the club will field teams in the U10 co-ed, U12, U14, and U17 boys and girls divisions.

Player registration will be held on Thursday, Feb. 9 from 6 to 9 p.m., and Saturday, Feb. 11 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Dunkirk Recreation Center, located on the Chautauqua County Fairgrounds. Registration fees are $85 for the U10 co-ed and U12 division and $100 for U14 and U17 divi-

sions. There is a $60 uniform fee for new players only. Need based scholarships are available on a limited basis. Forms are available online at www. myncsa.com and at the recreation center.

The STTSL was established in 1991, to fill the need for a more competitive program than the summer recreational model for committed, talented youth soccer players. Teams from Chautauqua County participate, as well as teams from Erie County, Cattaraugus County and Bradford, P.A. Last year, both NC Concord U14 boys and U14 girls’ teams won their division championship games, held at the Town of Ellery Park and hosted by the Bemus Area Youth Soccer Organization (BAYSO).

Bi-weekly practices for travel soccer begin indoors in March

and outdoors as soon as the weather permits. Games are typically held on Sunday afternoons, beginning in early May and concluding with the play-off tournament at the end of June. Plans are underway for all NC Concord teams to participate in a tournament in June.

Highlights of the STTSL include the STAR program, in which a patch is awarded to one player per team each game for the star qualities of Sportsmanship, Teamwork, Attitude and Respect. STAR patch recipients are selected by their opponents at the end of each game. In addition, the league has created a zero tolerance policy for players, coaches, and spectators, in order to promote positive interactions with officials. To learn more about the STTSL

visit www.sttsl.org.

This year NC Concord seeks qualified coaches to apply for paid positions as head coach and assistant coach for each team.

“We are looking for coaches with soccer knowledge, coaching experience, a solid understanding of youth physical and socio-emotional development, a strong commitment to program growth, and an approach that is positive and character-building,” said Janey Wagner, NC Concord Coaching Director.

Interested coaching applicants can apply by requesting an application at janey_wagner@yahoo.com. Questions about NC Concord should be directed to Program Director Pattie MacKinnon at ncconcord04@hotmail.com.

Allmendinger to ‘cherish’ win It was a good weekend for NASCAR drivers competing in mid-winter races. A.J. Allmendinger was part of the winning Michael Shank Racing team in the 50th anniversary Rolex 24 at Daytona, while last year’s Sprint Cup rookie of the year Andy Lally was on the victorious team in the GT class at Daytona’s around-the-clock sports car race.

In the annual Speedfest short track classic, held this year at Watermelon Capital Speedway in Cordele, Ga., Kyle Busch won the Super Late Model portion of the event, beating former Roush Racing “Gong Show” participant Andrew “Bubba” Pollard in a duel to the finish. David Ragan started on the pole and finished third, while Bill Elliott’s son Chase won the Pro Late Model part of Speedfest.

Allmendinger, who recently signed to race in Cup for Roger Penske, told reporters at Daytona that the Rolex win was a big one for him.

“It’s such a prestigious race,” he said. “It’s one of those races you want on your resume and you want to say that you were part of a victory.

“It’s amazing. I’m going to cherish this.”

n 1949, the inaugural season of the NASCAR circuit now known as Sprint Cup, the division was known as “Strictly Stock” because the race cars were just that – strictly stock automobiles.

Over the years, as the sport and its cars evolved, race cars came to have fewer and fewer components in common with the passenger cars they represented.

When NASCAR began racing the “Car of Tomorrow” back in 2007, it was all-new and contained numerous innovative safety features, but the cars bore little resemblance to the ones sitting in fans’ driveways. The only real difference in the appearance of a Ford and a Toyota was in the decals applied to the car.

Now, with the introduction of new cars for the 2013 season, the sport and its participating manufacturers are taking a big step in the opposite direction, creating cars that look a lot like the ones driven by the motoring public. The running gear underneath isn’t expected to be changed significantly.

During last week’s annual Charlotte Motor Speedway Media Tour, Ford Racing unveiled the 2013 Fusion that will make its competitive debut in next year’s Daytona 500.

Like the Mustang that Ford brought to the Nationwide Series full-time last year, the new Fusion looks much more sporty than the Car of Tomorrow version of the Fusion that it will replace.

Jamie Allison, director of Ford Racing, described the new car as one that is “streamlined, sleek, [with a] sport roof line that is unique in the midsize segment, [with] a lightness of design, something that’s about aerodynamics and efficient and belongs on the track; a dynamic car that looks fun to drive.”

Ford isn’t the only company bringing out a new car for 2013.

Chevrolet, Toyota and Dodge also are working on new models.

NASCAR’s vice president for competition, Robin Pemberton, said that the development of the new cars is quickly moving from the

drawing board to the race track.

“We’ll be in the wind tunnel over the next 30, 45 days with the new prototypes … as we do our evaluations on the submission cars, parts and pieces,” he said. “Everybody seems to be pretty far along, and the changes that will come out of those will be based on parity due to the wind tunnel numbers.

“We’re optimistic that there will be some real race cars on race tracks probably in the second quarter this year doing some evaluation runs, if not before then.”

NASCAR president Mike Helton said the sanctioning body is interested in having cars that appeal aesthetically to race fans while also putting on a good show on the race track.

“As the time went on and we all were engaged in [developing new cars], it was obvious that that was going to be of great benefit to NASCAR in general because of the relevancy and, oh, by the way, the energy that it created at the manufacturer level of being excited about being in the sport,” he said.

“And that can’t be anything but good for the entire sport.”

Helton went on to say that “NASCAR is constantly working on being sure that our product – race cars on race tracks – is as absolutely good as it can be.”

To that end, he and NASCAR’s technical experts are looking at wind tunnel data and other information to be sure the racing isn’t adversely affected by the change to four new cars, all different according to which manufacturer builds them.

And he said that representatives of the four manufacturers all have told him they understand that none should have a great advantage over the other.

“We’re all collectively on the same page,” he said. “We all want to produce the absolute best race we can. The teams want it to be them that come out ahead, and we understand that, but … any time we change a body like this and make the racing better, and that’s our mission.

“I couldn’t sit here and tell you

Officials from Kentucky Speedway, which gained a Sprint Cup race when Atlanta Motor Speedway lost one of its two and saw its inaugural event tarnished by traffic problems, say they’re fixing those issues.

“While we had some very positive things from our first year, we recognize that we had a very large negative,” said track president Mark Simendinger. “We are here to make sure that never happens again, and we are committed to a comprehensive solution.”

Simendinger said the speedway has bought more than 150 acres of land for parking, converted existing property for parking and added gravel aisles to grass lots to make parking more efficient. Local roadways also are being widened.

The changes are estimated to add room for 18,700 more cars.

‘Secret’ fines thing of the past NASCAR has announced that it is ending the practice of imposing “secret” fines on drivers who are critical of the sport.

NASCAR’s position on the matter was outlined in a statement issued last week: “We looked at this issue from every angle and gathered feedback from the industry. While there are always sensitivities related to sponsor relationships, and other leagues may continue issuing disclosed and undisclosed fines, NASCAR has decided that all fines moving forward will be made public after the competitor or organization that has been penalized has been informed.”

In recent years it has been revealed that drivers including Ryan Newman, Denny Hamlin and Brad Keselowski were secretly fined for remarks deemed critical of the sport.

RCR to race No. 33 sans Bowyer Richard Childress Racing, which is going from four full-time Sprint Cup teams to three with the exit of driver Clint Bowyer, has announced plans to run Bowyer’s former No. 33 Chevrolet in the opening races of the 2012 season, races for which the car has guaranteed starting spots.

The team will use drivers already in the RCR camp. Elliott Sadler will run the Daytona 500, and Brendan Gaughan will run the next four races on the Cup schedule.

Veteran crew chief Gil Martin will lead the team.

and the race teams, because we all understand what we do on the race track is still paramount.”

Pocono Raceway’s founder, Dr. Joe Mattioli, died last week at age 86 after an extended illness, but his legacy lives on in the NASCAR world.

“The character and the passion and the impact that Doc and Rose Mattioli made on our sport will be forever ingrained in it,” said NASCAR president Mike Helton. “It’s sad to hear of his passing.”

NASCAR issues rule package for Daytona 500 The on-track competition in the season-opening Daytona 500 is critical for the sport of NASCAR racing, as the momentum generated by an action-packed opener can carry over well into the season.

With that in mind, NASCAR has done much testing at Daytona, trying to come up with a rules package that limits the two-car tandems that have become increasingly unpopular with fans, and return to more of the racing in giant packs, which fans say they prefer.

After three days in January spent testing a variety of radiator open-

ings, restrictor plates and pressure relief valve settings, NASCAR has issued the rules package for the Daytona 500. Other races where restrictor plates aren’t used won’t be affected.

“We won’t be able to totally eliminate the two-car push,” said Robin Pemberton, NASCAR’s vice president for competition. “It will be a valuable tool that the teams will be able to use from time to time.

However, we do believe that we’ve come up with a rules package that will help it be the exception rather than the norm.”

He said the Daytona rules will feature a larger restrictor plate at 29/32 [inches], smaller spoiler and softer springs. The radiator inlet will be moved up to the center of the bumper area, and the opening will be 2 1/2 by 20 inches.

Pressure relief valves will start out at 25 pounds, and the rear bumper dimensions are moved downward an additional two inches.

Similar adjustments are being made to vehicles in the Nationwide and the Camping World Truck Series.

Bill Elliott, the popular veteran driver from Dawsonville, Ga., is returning to the Sprint Cup Series in a big way.

Elliott, who hasn’t raced since the fifth race of 2011, will drive the No. 50 Chevrolet in the July 7 Coke Zero 400 at Daytona International Speedway.

The car will be fielded by Turner Motorsports with technical assistance from Hendrick Motorsports, but the big surprise is the car’s sponsor – WalMart.

For years, most every NASCAR race team has sought to have Wal-Mart sponsor their cars and drivers, but the retail giant has remained driver-neutral when it came to NASCAR. But as Wal-Mart celebrates its 50th anniversary, it will break with tradition and sponsor Elliott’s car.

“Never in all my wildest dreams did I think I’d get to be a part of something like this at this point in my life,” said Elliott, now 56. “Most every race team in the garage would give anything to have Wal-Mart for a sponsor.”

Elliott said that while the on-track effort will almost be secondary to the promotions surrounding his run at Daytona, he doesn’t plan on just making laps on the track.

“Anything can happen,” he said.

“And I’m 100 percent certain it will be a competitive deal.”

Ironmen Host K-Wings For Important Three-Game Set

By Chris Winkler Star Sports Editor

It’s officially the stretch run for the Jamestown Ironmen and the rest of the North American Hockey League. As the calendar hits February, just two months remain left in the season, and for most squads, about 20 games.

While five teams have already clinched playoff berths (including all four of the Central Division’s available spots) the North Division may be the trickiest and take the longest to figure out.

Jamestown has 22 games left on their schedule and entering playing Thursday night (Feb. 2), the Ironmen trailed Michigan by seven points for the fourth and final playoff spot. However, Michigan has played five more games than the Ironmen, and has only 17 games remaining on their schedule. In addition, the two teams meet three more times this season with two games coming in Jamestown.

“It definitely is the final stretch,” head coach Dan Daikawa said. “We’re comfortable where we are with Michigan losing this weekend and we’re still thinking we can get better.”

This weekend will kick off that stretch when the Ironmen welcome Kalamazoo into town for the last time this season.

While hosting the Jr. KWings for three games starting Thursday, Jamestown will play 10 of their next 13 games at home. It is also their last 10 home games of the season.

They will end the regular season portion of their schedule nine road games, six of which will be against Traverse City.

Considering Jamestown has managed to go 10-7-1 at the Jamestown Savings Bank Ice Arena (10-9-1 overall at home, but two “home” games were neutral site), these three upcoming games loom large.

In 18 games at the JSBIA, Jamestown has picked up 21 of their 30 points. In the 20 away from home, they’ve only won four games and picked up just nine points.

“It’s crucial to make sure you get points in every home game,” Daikawa said. “When you have a weekend of three

games, you obviously want to win them all, but getting four or five points is still pretty big.”

Of course, that won’t be an easy task as the Ironmen welcome in the Jr. K-Wings Thursday through Saturday.

Kalamazoo has won five of the six meetings against Jamestown, including the last four.

“They’re one of those teams that are so skilled offensively that they think they can beat you even when they’re down by two or three goals,” Daikawa said.

However, when they visited Jamestown at the end of October, the Ironmen won easily 5-2 Thursday night before losing back-to-back one goal games.

“We’ve had leads on them every game we’ve played,” Daikawa said. “But we haven’t

Ironmen To Host Second ‘Pink The Rink’ Feb. 3

Next Friday, Feb. 3, (7:05 p.m. faceoff), in conjunction with LINKS Charity and WCA Hospital, the Jamestown Ironmen will host their second “Pink the Rink” of the season at the Jamestown Savings Bank Arena.

To honor the courage of breast cancer patients, the Ironmen will once again wear

custom-made hockey jerseys and encourage everyone in attendance to join them by also wearing pink.

The Jamestown Ironmen are conducting a Charity Auction featuring these game-worn jerseys, pink hockey sticks, and other pink items autographed by Ironmen players and coaches, as well as NAHL alumni and current Buffalo Sabres Ryan Miller, Nathan Gerbe, and Thomas Vanek.

A silent auction featuring

these one-of-a-kind items will take place before and during the game, and a live auction will follow the game.

All of the auction proceeds, as well as $2 from the purchase of every “Pink the Rink” ticket, will benefit LINKS Charity and local breast cancer care at WCA Hospital.

For pre-sale tickets, please call the Jamestown Savings Bank Arena at 716-484-2624 or visit www.JamestownArena.com.

been able to put them away.

Good teams find a way to win and we have to learn to do that.

“But we have to be smart against them. They score a lot of power play goals, so we have to watch our penalties and make sure we stay 5-on-5 with them.”

Kalamazoo is led by Robbie Payne and Andrew Graves, both of whom were selected to play in the NAHL’s Top Prospects (league’s all-star) game.

Graves played the last two seasons for the Motor City Metal Jackets, the team that moved here to Jamestown.

“He had to stay in Michigan to keep his scholarship money and that’s something I wanted to let him do,” Daikawa said. “He’s had a great year, been very successful and is absolutely a guy that we need contain this weekend.”

Meanwhile, let the scoreboard watching start.

Michigan will play just two games this weekend, both on the road against the St. Louis Bandits, the second place team in the Midwest Division. Similarly, Michigan’s had tough times on the road and this seems as good of a time as any to cut the deficit for the Ironmen “The guys are excited,” Daikawa said. “Obviously we have to win games but this is a good opportunity for us and we’re excited to see how it plays out.”

Giants Front Four Set To Go After Brady

By Tom Canavan Associated Press

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — Defense for the New York Giants starts with the front four.

Stopping the run and forcing the opposition into passing situations will let loose possibly the best group of pass rushers in the NFL. It was the formula the Giants used in 2008 in pounding Tom Brady Justin Tuck (No. 91) and Osi Umenyiora (No. 72) celebrate a sack and stunning the previously earlier in the season.

Brady does have something else to worry about. Not only are the Giants getting to the passer, New York's secondary has settled down after a season of miscommunication. Matt Ryan, Aaron Rodgers and Alex Smith frequently had to go to second and third options in recent weeks because the secondary took away the primary receiver, giving the line more time to get to the quarterback.

And the Giants intend to get to Brady again.

Umenyiora remembers talking to Michael Strahan at breakfast on the morning of Super Bowl XLII. “Strahan was just talking, being loud, his usual self, whatever, and I'm usually the one who is joking around, but I was dead serious that morning,'' Umenyiora said. “I was like, `Stray, in order for us to win this game we're going to have to get to the quarterback, we're going to have to really get to him.'

“He was like, `Yeah, yeah, whatever.' I made him put his fork down, and I was like, `I'm dead serious, man, we have to do this.' And he was like, `All right, cool,' and he stopped joking around then and he was all business and we went out there and took care of it.''

Umenyiora has that same feeling, even a sense of anger that the Giants are once again the underdogs despite beating the Patriots 24-20 in New England in November.

“Most people picking this game will say they're going to win this game, but we know at the end of the day we're going to have to get to him as often as we can if we're going to win this football game. And that's exactly what we plan on doing,'' Umenyiora said.

Woods Falters As Rock Wins Abu Dhabi Championship

By Michael Casey Associated Press

ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Tiger Woods talked all week about his improved ball control — then it let him down when he needed it most.

Woods resembled the Tiger of old over the first three rounds at the Abu Dhabi Championship, stringing together a trio of rounds below par before shooting an even 72 in Sunday’s finale to finish in a tie for third place behind winner Robert Rock and U.S. Open champion Rory McIlroy.

The 117th-ranked Rock shot 70 for an overall 275 to beat McIlroy (69) by a shot. Woods was a further shot back with Thomas Bjorn (68) and Graeme McDowell (68). The 18-year-old Italian Matteo Manassero (69) and George Coetzee (70) of South Africa were another shot back.

“Today I just didn’t give myself enough looks at it,” Woods said. “Most of my putts were lag putts. I didn’t drive the ball in as many fairways as I should have … It was a day I was just a touch off the tee and consequently I couldn’t get the ball close enough.”

It marked the second straight time Woods hasn’t won with at least a share of the lead after 54 holes. He failed to win the Chevron World Challenge in 2010 after going into the final round with a four-shot lead over McDowell.

pears to have recovered from a two-year victory drought in which he was sidelined by injuries and personal turmoil.

But Woods must now face the fact that, at age 36, there are plenty of players — known and unknown — who can potentially beat him.

Woods, though, was looking for the silver lining out of his third-place finish. He insisted he has been steadily improving — hitting a high percentage of fairways and greens until Sunday and putting much better.

“There’s plenty of big events to go, but I’m pleased at the progress I’ve made so far,” said Woods, who won the Chevron World Challenge last month to end his drought. “I just need to keep building, keep getting more consistent, and today was a day where I putted beautifully. Just didn’t give myself enough looks.”

Coming into Sunday, Woods was tied for the lead with the unheralded Rock and was the clear favorite to win. Rock had only one victory under his belt compared to 83 for Woods worldwide, but it was

save par as he did on 11 after overshooting the green. As he approached his shot in deep rough just off the 11th green, he sighed heavily and let out a stream of obscenities under his breath.

Woods managed to save par by sinking a 12-footer and Rock just missed a birdie putt. Woods pumped his fist and appeared to be regaining momentum as he pulled within one shot of Rock on No. 13 when the Englishman had one of his three bogeys. But the 34-year-old Rock birdied two of the next three holes to regain control.

Rock wobbled on the 18th when his drive landed in a pile of rocks near the water — forcing him to take a drop — but he recovered beautifully, reaching the green in four and two-putting for the win.

“I was just focusing on trying to hit fairways and then hit my iron shots as good as I have been and give myself chances at birdies,” Rock said. “Both Tiger and Peter struggled on occasions on a few holes and I managed to keep my ball in the right position and didn’t put myself under too much stress until the last, which was a relief.”

It was a storybook ending for Rock, who rose from a club pro to join the European Tour in 2003 and only got his first tour win last year at the Italian Open. The victory will elevate him into the top 60.

“It doesn’t get an awful lot harder than playing with

Rock — battling his nerves over playing alongside one of his golfing idols — who held it together down the stretch.

“It’s pretty hard to believe that I managed to win today. Very surprised,” the Englishman said. “I played good. So I guess I had a chance from early on, a couple of birdies made the day feel a little bit easier.”

“But it’s difficult playing with Tiger. You expect almost every shot to threaten to go in. It felt a lot of pressure and couldn’t afford any lapses in concentration at all.”

Woods started strong and it looked as though he might pull away from Rock, sinking a 40-footer on No. 2 for birdie and chipping to within a foot of the cup for a second birdie on the 3rd. But Rock didn’t blink, making birdie on two of the first three holes to keep pace.

Then Woods began to unravel.

He started spraying his drives into the thick rough and fairway bunkers, resulting in bogeys on Nos. 4 and 5. When Woods wasn’t missing the fairways, he was scrambling to Continued on pg 10

Djokovic Tops Nadal In Longest Grand Slam Final Ever

By Caroline Cheese Associated Press

MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) — Novak Djokovic has that unbeatable feeling.

And well he should.

The Serb outlasted Rafael Nadal to defend his Australian Open title in the longest ever Grand Slam final and become the fifth man to win three straight majors in the Open Era. Djokovic now has the French Open — the one major to elude him — in his sights. He won’t even rule out the ultimate: the Grand Slam.

“One player (Rod Laver) has done it, so it is possible,” he said after the traditional post-victory photo shoot in a downtown Melbourne park on Monday. “Obviously the times are different and tennis nowadays is much more competitive and much more physical. And that makes that challenge more difficult to achieve. But everything is possible.”

With the London Olympics to follow Wimbledon this year, Djokovic could even make it a Golden Slam by winning the gold medal at London 2012 to go with the four majors.

“The facts are that I’m at the peak of my career,” Djokovic said. “I feel physically and mentally at the peak, I feel strong, I feel motivated, I feel eager to win more trophies.”

Having slept for only a few hours, Djokovic dispensed with the band and the raucous dressing room celebrations that marked his victory last year, choosing to strum the air guitar and belt out a few lyrics from “Highway To Hell.”

Djokovic recalled the brief celebrations after the match at Rod Laver Arena and made a half-hearted attempt to sing the refrain from the AC/DC rock anthem. His legs were too tired, and his throat a bit hoarse. “Oh man, I’m tired.”

And so he should be. Djokovic completed a 5-hour, 53-minute 5-7, 6-4, 6-2, 6-7 (5), 7-5 victory over Nadal at 1:37 a.m.

— ending an epic match with a forehand winner that finally finished off the Spaniard.

He defied exhaustion to tear off his shirt and flex his bare torso as he made his way to celebrate with friends and family. He was still doing interviews after 4 a.m.

It didn’t leave much time for celebrating. Unlike his victory at the 2011 Australian Open, when he beat his friend Andy Murray in straight sets and then kicked off an all-night party with a rock band in the locker room.

“I didn’t have any more energy left to celebrate,” Djokovic said Monday. “I was preferring my bed.”

When he awoke not long after, his body reminded him not just of the incredible events of the previous evening, nearly six hours of physically punishing tennis against one of the game’s most ferociously competitive athletes, but also of a near five-hour semifinal two nights earlier against Murray.

“I felt lots of pain all over the body,” he said. “The adrenaline is still there and I still am very

excited about what I have experienced here in the last two weeks and especially last night.

I’m full of joy, but I think still I don’t have a real sense of what’s going on.”

Djokovic wasn’t the only one feeling a little dazed Monday.

There were still 1.86 million people watching in Australia until after 1:30 a.m. The peak audience was 3.86 million, approaching about one-fifth of the population. When the last ball was struck, hardly any of the almost 15,000 spectators in Rod Laver Arena had left.

A historic final provided a fitting climax to a men’s tournament that also featured riveting semifinals between Nadal and No. 3-ranked Roger Federer, and Djokovic and No. 4 Murray.

Tournament director Craig Tiley, celebrating a record attendance of 686,006 over two weeks, described the final as “the greatest match of all time.”

A day after earning her first Grand Slam title, even Victoria Azarenka came out to watch the men’s final. The 22-year-old Belarusian needed 82 minutes — two minutes more than the first set lasted between Nadal and Djokovic — to rout Maria Sharapova and claim both the trophy and the No. 1 ranking.

Djokovic’s seventh straight win in a final over Nadal underlined his dominance of the men’s game, which until last year had been headlined by Nadal and Federer.

Nadal got closer to ending the Serb’s recent success against him, but after being a break up in the fifth set, couldn’t get over the line. Despite a third straight loss in a Grand Slam final, Nadal leaves Melbourne more motivated than ever.

Less than 24 hours before the tournament began, he was in tears, believing a freak knee injury he sustained while sitting on a chair would prevent him from competing in the tournament.

To end it having pushed his nemesis to the limit was more than enough consolation for the 10-time Grand Slam champion.

“I wanted to win, but I am happy about how I did,” he said.

“I had my chances against the best player of the world today. I played one against one.”

In the end, Djokovic’s unshakable belief that began to develop when he won the Davis Cup with Serbia at the end of 2010, and strengthened when he went the first 41 matches of last season unbeaten, pulled him through.

Once the bridesmaid to Nadal and Federer, Djokovic understood exactly how his opponent felt.

“When I played three, four years ago against Rafa and Roger in Grand Slam semifinals and finals, I felt that they were just superior on the court, that they had this mental advantage,” he said. “Because they just know that when the time comes, when the match is breaking down, fifth set, they will always prevail, because they believe more, they have more experience and they know what to do.”

Now it’s Djokovic’s turn to feel like he’s the one who can’t lose.

Gaustad was singled out among Sabres players on the ice at the time for not coming to Miller's defense.

"They asked me where Lucic was and I asked them where they were with (Zdeno) Chara, so it's the same thing," Gaustad said.

Gaustad's on-ice reply was directed at Mon-

treal's Max Pacioretty, who sustained a broken vertebra last season on a devastating hit by the Bruins' 6-foot-9 captain.

"It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that's what he meant and I don't think it was right," Canadiens left wing Mathieu Darche said.

Pacioretty scored his 18th goal for Montreal, which went into the All-Star break on a 2-0-1 run, capped by a 7-2 win last Wednesday over NHL-leading Detroit.

Price stopped 37 shots.

"He tried to steal one for us and we just didn't let it happen," Canadiens defenseman Hal Gill said.

Thomas Vanek, who leads the Sabres with 19 goals, left after the first period because of an upper-body injury. He did not return.

Pacioretty had the tying goal on his stick just past the midway point of the third, but was unable to convert his scoring opportunity from the edge of the crease. Erik Cole, who leads the Canadiens with 19 goals, drilled a shot off the right post in the second.

Leino used a toe drag to pave the way for his tying goal 4:01 into the second. The Finnish forward pulled the puck back with the tip of his stick blade to sneak around Canadiens defenseman Raphael Diaz, gaining the slot before firing a wrist shot past Price.

Pacioretty opened the scoring with an unassisted effort 4:09 in. He flicked the puck past Buffalo defenseman Matt Ellis along the right boards and drove in alone on Miller. The Sabres goalie stopped the initial shot, but Pacioretty put the rebound under Miller's right pad.

game of hockey and having fun with it. So we’ve been enjoying ourselves, and I hope the fans felt the same way.”

What was not to like?

Fans were treated to a wideopen, no-hitting style in a game that featured plenty of nifty passing plays, numerous odd-man breaks and even a penalty shot awarded to Steven Stamkos, who leads the NHL with 32 goals.

Stamkos, however, was foiled on his freebie — the second in All-Star game history — when he attempted the same spin-around move he used to beat Carey Price in the skills competition on Saturday night.

Jimmy Howard didn’t bite on Sunday, holding his ground and hugging the post to stop Stamkos’ penalty-shot attempt.

“I think I ran out of moves,” Stamkos said. “I tried something fancy and hoped it would work. It didn’t. But I just tried to have fun with it.”

Gaborik enjoyed himself the most, earning bragging rights over Lundqvist after the two spent the past few days playfully going back and forth on Twitter. The mock feud was over Lundqvist — Alfredsson’s assistant captain — choosing

not to select Gaborik in the AllStar player draft on Thursday.

Gaborik showed just how motivated he was. After opening the scoring 4:34 in on a give-andgo with Pavel Datsyuk, Gaborik circled the net dropped to one knee and pointed his stick machine-gun style at Lundqvist while pumping his fist.

The move was identical to one done by Rangers forward Artem Anisimov earlier this season when he scored against the Tampa Bay Lightning.

This one was all in fun, said Gaborik, the 16th player to score at least three goals — one short of matching the record — in the All-Star

game. It was the first All-Star hat trick since Rick Nash had three goals in 2008.

“It’s always tough to score on him,” Gaborik said of Lundqvist.

“It’s not easy. I was fortunate to be lucky against him, but I think he’s one of the best if not the best goalie in the league.”

Tim Thomas made 18 saves in the final period, and extended his record by winning his fourth All-Star game.

Hossa and Jarome Iginla had a goal and two assists, and Joffrey Lupul scored twice for Team Chara.

For Team Alfredsson, Henrik Sedin had a goal and two as-

sists, and Daniel Sedin, John Tavares, Jason Pominville and Milan Michalek had a goal and assist each.

The outcome was decided in the final period when Team Chara outscored Team Alfredsson 6-3.

With the game tied at 8, Chara, Marian Hossa and Corey Perry scored in a span of 1:22, beating goalie Brian Elliott on consecutive shots.

Gaborik set up Chara for the decisive goal, flipping the puck into the high slot, where Chara slapped it in.

“I was surprised that I was open, and I just put it on net,” Chara said. “It’s nice to get the win. The fans saw some goals, and then as we were going toward the end, you could see that the guys wanted to win.”

Chara paid respect to Alfredsson, saying he was rooting for his former Senators teammate to complete his hat trick.

“Alfie’s such a classy guy, obviously a big icon in Ottawa and Sweden, as well, and such a great player to represent this team,” Chara said. “So of course I was pulling for him.”

After falling behind 3-0, Team Alfredsson rallied to tie it before the first period ended.

But they didn’t get their first — and only lead — until Alfredsson scored twice during a 1:31 span to put his team up 6-5 with just under four minutes left in the second.

That got the crowd chanting “Alfie! Alfie! Alfie!”

He nearly scored his third goal in the third period, only to have a one-timer from the left circle ring off the post.

But it was after the game when Alfredsson sounded upbeat about his future in an interview broadcast on the arena’s scoreboard.

With a smile on his face, and fans cheering his name, Alfredsson said: “Fifty percent yes, and my wife’s going to have to decide the other 50.”

He has one year left on his contract.

It a game built around offense, the goalies still found ways to have fun with it.

Price allowed three goals on 14 shots, and lamented during the first intermission the lack of defense.

“I feel like being a lamb getting led to slaughter,” Price said. “I’m must be holding on for the ride today and hope I don’t get lit up too bad.”

Late Bucket Sinks Fredonia Against New Paltz Contributed Article Fredonia Sports Information

FREDONIA, N.Y. — The Fredonia State men's basketball team lost wild one, 54-52, to visiting New Paltz on Saturday evening as freshman Alan Siergeij nailed the game-winning shot with 1.5 seconds left to give New Paltz a hard-fought victory.

The final minute of the game saw several big shots.

The first one came from the Hawk's Shalik Jenkins. Tied at 49, Jenkins nailed a three with 46.3 seconds left to put New Paltz up by three.

Moments later, Fredonia State's Damien Goodwin II knocked down a long three for the Devils, knotting the game at 52.

New Paltz inbounded the ball with 34 seconds remaining. The Hawks ran down the clock for the final shot.

Jenkins dribbled in from the top of the key. As the Devils collapsed on Jenkins, he lobbed the ball to an open Siergiej who converted a baby hook under the hoop for the game winner.

The game stayed close throughout the second half, with five lead changes and four ties. Neither team led by

more than five at any point in the half.

The first half was even more back-and-forth with ten lead changes and four ties. The frame even ended with a buzzer beater.

With New Paltz leading 33-30, Leonard Smith nailed a threepointer as the horn sounded to tie it at 33-all. The two teams combined for 10 threepointers in the period, six coming from the Blue Devils.

The biggest lead of the half — and the game — was eight points by New Paltz. With the Devils up 13-12, the Hawks went on a nine-point run to take a 21-13 lead. The Devils immediately answered with a 12-1 run capped by a pair of Jonathan Herrera three pointers. At that point, the Devils held a 25-22 advantage with five minutes left in the half.

Julius Bryant topped the Devils with 13 points and 10 rebounds. Leonard Smith added 7 points, 9 rebounds and 5 assists. The Devils held a 32-24 edge on the boards.

However, they only converted two of eight free-throw opportunites in the game. New Paltz was six of eight for the game.

The Hawks were led by Matt Devine with 21 points. Jenkins finished with 12 and 6 assists.

Friday, Fredonia won its third straight SUNYAC game, taking down the Oneonta Red Dragons, 57-41.

The Devils pulled away late in a game that stayed close much of the second half. Amir Billups nailed a three pointer with 4:09 left to play to give the Devils their first doubledigit lead, 45-35. They would go on a 12-4 run over the final 2:08 to end the game.

The Devils again used a stingy defense, holding an opponent to under 45 points for the fourth time this season and second straight game. They limited Oneonta to just 24 percent shooting (13 of 54) and held a 44-33 edge on the boards.

The Red Dragons turned in a fine defensive performance as well, forcing the Devils into 20 turnovers and accumulating 14 steals.

On offense, Fredonia State was paced by Bryant with 14 points and Goodwin II with 11. Leonard Smith grabbed eight boards and three assists.

Oneonta was led by Frankie Kelly with 17 points, including 9-of-10 shooting from the free-throw line.

The Devils hit the road next weekend, making the trek to Potsdam and Plattsburgh.

St. Bonaventure Sports Information

PHILADELPHIA — Playing without starting point guard Armelia Horton, St. Bonaventure (20-2, 7-0 Atlantic 10) rolled past La Salle (9-12, 3-3 A-10) Saturday afternoon, 75-57. Senior Jessica Jenkins led a trio of Bona double-figure scorers behind eight 3-pointers and a season-high 28 points to keep the Bonnies in sole possession of first place in the league.

Jenkins' fifth 3 represented the 300th of her career, and the eight 3-pointers tied a season high in that category as the Bonnies won their ninth straight game and 20th overall for the fourth consecutive season. The Ohio native now has knocked down five or more 3-pointers in a game 23 times in her career.

Senior Megan Van Tatenhove added 16 points, and sophomore Doris Ortega finished with double-figure points for the fourth straight game with 12.

The victory also helped the Bonnies maintain the nation's best road record

as they are now 9-0 on the year and one of just three unbeatens on the road in the country.

SBU shot a season-high 52.7 percent from the floor as it defeated La Salle for the fifth straight time. The triumph evened head coach Jim Crowley's career record (213-213) for the first time since his second game at Bonaventure on Nov. 19, 2000.

Horton, who was nauseous, came into the contest as one of seven Bonnies averaging 7 or more points per game at 7.8 per contest – fourth-best on the Bona roster.

With Bonaventure leading by just one, 14-13, early in the first half, the Bonnies rattled off seven straight – five from Jenkins – to take a 21-13 lead. The cushion would expand to double figures later in the half, and for the final 25 minutes of the game SBU led by no fewer than 12 points.

The Brown and White scored a season-high 43 first-half points en route to a 43-27 halftime lead. Included in that point total was a season-best 61 percent from the floor as Bona put three

scorers in double figures in the opening 20 minutes for the first time this year.

La Salle was led offensively by Jada Payne as she tallied 11, while Nadia Duncan and Brittany Wilson each added 10.

St. Bonaventure returns to action as it heads to Pittsburgh to battle Duquesne on Wednesday. The meeting will be the second of the year between the Bonnies and Dukes, as SBU claimed a win in the first contest. Tipoff is set for 7 p.m.

NOTES: Coaches and staff on both teams wore sneakers as part of the nationwide Coaches vs. Cancer … the all-time series is now tied at 10-10 … sophomore Ashley Zahn logged her first game action since Jan. 14 and scored one point … 22 of Jenkins' 23 5+ 3-point games have come since the start of her sophomore season … freshman Tatiana Wilson played in her first game since Dec. 22 at Colgate …

Van Tatenhove pulled down seven boards as part of Bonaventure's 34-25 rebounding edge … SBU turned the ball over just nine times.

Fredonia Women Swept By New Paltz, Oneonta Contributed Article Fredonia Sports Information

Down 54-46, Jaimie Warren and Jenna Austin connected on jumpers on consecutive possessions to make it 54-50.

From there, the Devils began to foul to nurse the clock.

Oneonta's final eight points all came from the free-throw line.

The Devils received 22 points from Hebert, 14 from Austin and 11 from Warren. Austin and Warren led the team with

9 rebounds each. Warren was one board short of her thirdstraight double-double. Nicole Calbi added six assists.

Fredonia State held a 45-32 rebound advantage. They outscored the Red Dragons 34-30 in the second half.

Oneonta got 18 apiece from Madison Slagle and Samantha Szotak. They improved to 10-5 and 9-1 in the conference.

The Devils make the trip up to the North Country next weekend, taking on Potsdam and Plattsburgh.

However, success in the tributaries is more about picking the right day than it is about technique.

The best time to hit the streams is when the flow is increased but not so much that it is muddy. If the creek is too low, then the water is clear and the fish do not feed. The

conditions of the streams has been different almost every day so your best bet is to keep an eye on the water levels and be ready when it is right.

The same should be said about the condition of the ice on our local lakes. Last weekend the ice on several of the smaller lakes was thick enough for fisherman to get out. Chautauqua Lake still had some open water in spots but that

m d in o All of the Lake Erie tributarpen- ies are currently running very high and muddy. With additional precipitation forecasted, it is unlikely that any of the streams will be fishable this weekend.

Earlier in the week, anglers were catching steelhead in most of the creeks, with a better bite in the Chautauqua County tributaries. In cold water conditions, it is best to keep drifted baits slow and deep as steelhead are lethargic and hugging the bottom.

Egg sacs, egg pattern flies, trout beads or small hair jigs tipped with a waxworm/ spike (fished under a float) are good bets. Concentrate efforts during the warmest part of the day when chasing winter steelhead.

ies can be a challenging and potentially hazardous outing, with the onset of ice and snow.

Safety is of utmost importance.

Some helpful items that you should consider include neoprene waders, ice cleats for boot soles, a walking stick/ pole and a fishing companion whenever possible.

For those new to tributary steelhead fishing, see the Steelhead Fishing in Lake Erie Tributaries page on the DEC’s Web site for information on steelhead fishing tackle, equipment and links to steelhead stream maps.

Anglers should note that there are special Great Lakes Tributary Regulations.

Lake Erie Harbors Dunkirk Harbor can be fished throughout the winter as a warm water discharge at the power plant keeps the harbor ice-free. Anglers can target brown trout and steelhead from the city pier, DEC fishing platform (near warmwater

discharge) or from boats.

Minnows fished under a bobber have worked best.

Upper Niagara River Stained water conditions on the upper river will keep the fishing on hold for a bit.

Ice Fishing Some area waters had good ice and good catches over the past couple of weeks. However, the most recent warming temperatures and rainstorms have degraded ice coverings, especially near shore. Therefore, in good conscience, I can not recommend any waters for ice fishing at this time.

Remember that a minimum of 3 to 4 inches of solid ice is the general rule for safety.

Drilling holes or tapping with a spud bar to check ice thickness is recommended on your way out. Safety ice pics, boot cleats, rope and a floatation devise are recommended safety items. Use good judgement and fish with a friend when possible.

Bills Add Two To The Coaching Staff

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — The Buffalo Bills reshaped their coaching staff Monday by adding Andrew Dees and Eric Thatcher, and reassigning Bob Bicknell, Bob Sanders, and Adrian White.

Dees becomes the team’s assistant offensive line coach, and Thatcher will serve as the new

defensive quality control coach.

They both will make their NFL coaching debut with Buffalo.

Bicknell will coach receivers after coaching tight ends this past season, and White will be the assistant defensive backs coach after serving as the defensive quality control coach since 2008.

Sanders will take over as linebackers coach after coaching just the outside linebackers.

The Bills only need a tight ends coach to complete the staff.

Meanwhile, coach Chan Gailey said Monday that Buffalo’s defense will switch from a 3-4 scheme to predominantly a four-man front.

didn’t keep the fishermen away. There were some people out on the southern end of the lake and a small group of guys near long point.

No one should assume that the ice is still good now because it was good last week.

The periodic warm ups we have been having are changing the ice conditions from day to day. That is why it is good practice to always use

the same trail on your way out on the ice. This makes any changes to the ice easy to spot so you can reassess the danger.

The weathermen are hinting at some more prolonged wintery weather coming our way next week. That should help make the ice more stable provided we don’t get too much snow. A thick layer of snow will insulate the ice from

the cold air and not let it get thicker. Too much snow on the ice will sink it and allow water to get on top of the ice.

On Chautauqua Lake this happens every year, eventually if it stays cold it all freezes up solid. Most of the small game hunting seasons finish up at the end of February except for the spring goose season which runs from Feb. 25 to March 10.

$1 Million in DEC Grants Awarded to 24 Organizations Statewide Contributed Article Department of Environmental Conservation

The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) awarded 24 Environmental Justice Community Impact Grants to organizations across the state that serve communities facing environmental harm and risk, DEC Commissioner Joe Martens announced.

"The Department of Environmental Conservation will be providing much-needed funding to two dozen outstanding organizations and projects throughout New York that will provide benefits to environmental justice communities far beyond the value of the grants," said DEC Commissioner Joe Martens.

The Environmental Justice Grants Program, created with input from the DEC Environmental Justice Advisory Group, helps communities understand and mitigate environmental harms or risks to improve quality of life.

The funding comes from the Environmental Justice Community Impact Research Grant (EJ Grant) program.

Launched in 2006, the program helps local organizations with projects to address environmental or public health concerns. The program concentrates on communities that historically have been overburdened by such problems as a high density of industrial emissions, a concentration of contaminated sites; disproportionate noise, air and water pollution; en-

Interest in the Environmental Justice Community Impact Grant program has grown dramatically. This year, 123 groups from around the state applied for funding. Detailed reviews by DEC staff resulted in 24 grant awards totaling $1 million. Individual awards range from $5,180 to $50,000.

A wide variety of projects will be supported this year, including community gardens and green infrastructure, air and water quality monitoring, waste recycling in public housing, lead poisoning prevention, building deconstruction and expansion of an urban aquaponics facility and environmental education for urban and Native American youth.

Women Win, Men Fall Shorts On Senior Day Bonnies Baseball Picked to Finish 10th in A-10 Contributed Article Fredonia Sports Information

FREDONIA, N.Y. — The Fredonia State women's swim and diving team sent its seniors out winners as the squad claimed its first-ever team victory over SUNY Cortland.

The women won 152-146.

The men fell just short, losing 158-135.

The Devils were especially dominant in the diving tank, as the women finish 1-2-3 off both the 1-meter and 3-meter boards. The men took four of the top six spots, with Ryan Fuller winning off both boards.

Sarah Ficarro won both dives with NCAA provisional scores.

Leanne Kies and Ashley Keller placed and showed off the 3-meter. Keller and Heather Colby finished right behind Ficarro off the 1-meter board.

John Rodman finished second off the 1-meter, and third off the 3-meter.

Notable swims came from Jennifer Smith (2:01.48) and Emily Ginty (2:02.64), finishing 1-2 in the 200-freestyle.

Stephanie Andrasek added a season best and first-place finish in the 100-breast stroke in a time of 1:09.13.

Elizabeth Schake provided a spark in the second-to-last individual event, with a win in

the 100-butterfly, finishing in 1:00.80.

The final event on the women's side was the 800yard freestyle. With both team neck-and-neck, the winner of the relay would claim the team victory. The quartet of Lizzie Lodinsky, Kristen Champoux, Ginty and Smith finished nine seconds ahead of the Cortland squad in a time of 8:08.60, giving the Blue Devils the win.

The men also swam very well in their last tune up for championships.

John Estanislau finished in the win column three times, taking the 50 freestyle (:21.69), 100 butterfly (:53.23) and participating in the 800 freestyle relay (7:28.92).

Double winners include Eric Jordan in the 100- and 200backstroke (times of :56.26, and 2:02.59, respectively).

“So I guess barring a major championship, I know I can handle that again. So that’s pretty nice to know.”

While most of the attention was on Rock and Woods, several players surged into contention down the stretch.

McIlroy, playing ahead of Rock and Woods, birdied No. 18 to move to 12 under and give himself a chance. But

he came up short with four rounds of par or better golf being undone by several costly mistakes — the worst coming Friday when the third-ranked McIlroy was penalized two shots for brushing away sand in front of his ball in the rough of the 9th.

Adrian vanHall swam one of his best meets of the season, winning the 500 freestyle in a lifetime best of 5:02.86. He was also a part of the winning 800-freestyle relay with Estanislau, Matt Beebe and David Adamczak.

Five Blue Devil seniors and one junior were recognized prior to competing in their final collegiate home meet.

Head coach Arthur Wang noted the exploits of divers Leanne Kies and John Rodman, freestyler Renée Solly, distance specialist Matt Beebe, and sprinter Robert Sweeny, all seniors, and junior sprinter Jessica Dosser, who will forgo her senior year of eligibility.

The Devils will compete in the SUNYAC Championships beginning Feb. 8.

Last year, the Bonnies finished 23-23 and in a tie for fifth place in the Atlantic 10. Junior Eddie Gray will head the Bonnies pitching staff this season. (St. Bonaventure sports information)

IT’S GOOD FOR YOUR GAME

TEEING OFF

Seal the deal

Give your game honest analysis

For students who are serious about improving and have the time to devote to a program, I’ve designed schedule of when to do what. To give this guide some sense of chronological order, I’ve broken it into a series of weeks — 13 of them — which allows roughly 90 days to reach your goal.

Here is week two.

Digitize your game Review the relative strengths and weaknesses of your game in preparation for creating a strength and weakness profile. Take a yellow pad and draw a line down the middle. On the right side, label two columns “Strength” and “Weakness.”

Down the left side, list all areas of your game — chipping/pitching, lag putting, etc. — and then list each club in your bag.

Under the two columns on the right side, honestly evaluate each entry as a strength or a weakness by annotating the appropriate column. Keep a running list until you have a handle on your playing profile.

You’ll find it helpful to rate each of your clubs with numbers. Use a 3 for weak, 2 for average and 1 for strong. If you like, add decimals, such as 1.5, to create a more sensitive range. It’s helpful to keep a journal where you record important golf experiences and observations.

Use this information to play the game by evaluating each situation and then choosing a club that is on the strength side. Plus it tells you what to practice to improve.

For example, say by keeping your stats you discover that you’re not very accurate with your short irons. When it’s time to lay up on a par-5, you’ll use this knowledge to govern your choices — lay up so that you have a 6-iron shot (a mid-iron you hit well) vs. a 9-iron that you have trouble with.

The takeaway: A major aspect of playing your best golf is fitting your strength and weakness profile into the defenses set up by the architect. To do this you must make an accurate assessment of your playing skills, which are often different from your practice range skills.

For this reason, I encourage you to develop both a practice and a playing profile, and be sure you never confuse the two. Your playing profile reveals how well you perform when shot selection depends not only on the conditions, but also on your ability to execute under the one-ball success rate, that is, in a situation where every swing counts.

SCIENCE SAYS

If you’re like most golfers, you probably hinge your right wrist backward at the top of your swing, and that’s a good thing. But unlike players on tour, you don’t keep that angle through impact. Maintaining your wrist cup allows you to retain the correct lag of the shaft, keeping the hands ahead of the clubhead until impact to provide maximum power.

If you lack power, especially hitting a full sand wedge, you’re probably releasing the club too early. By “too early” I mean that you’re losing the angle between your right hand and the back of your right forearm during your downswing — long before you should.

To produce the feel I’m talking about, take your normal grip on the club, then move your left thumb behind your right wrist and apply a sealing pressure. Take a few halfswings in slow motion with an iron from this position, and notice how the right wrist angle stays intact and the clubhead stays behind the hands at impact. It’s called lag.

The secret to power is mastering lag using the piston stroke. The bent right arm is in the form of a V at the top of

Experience has many rewards

the swing, ABOUT THE WRITER as is the cup Dr. T.J. in the right Tomasi is a teaching wrist. The professional left wrist in Port St. also forms Lucie, Fla. Visit his a 90-degree website at angle with tjtomasi.com. the shaft.

Starting down, the right elbow should forcefully straighten while the wrist retains its seal, preserving the 90-degree angle formed by the left forearm and the shaft. This can only happen if the right wrist stays sealed, i.e., hinged as it was at the top of the swing.

The piston stroke is similar to a straight arm in football, or to a person signaling you to stop by extending his right arm with a hand perpendicular to the forearm.

Try this drill: Swing to the top and stop. Then bring your target arm down until it bisects your chest and is parallel with the ground. Now stop again. Your trail arm is still bent 90 degrees at the elbow, and you’re ready to fire the piston. Try to hit the ball only about 80 yards with a teed 7-iron to get the feel.

When it’s time to figure out which shot to hit and how to hit it, you might think it logical that an expert golfer’s brain is experiencing more electrical activity than a high handicapper’s brain. But according to Dr. Claudio Del Percio of Sapienza University in Rome, just the opposite is true. The expert brain is very quiet, while the non-expert brain is hyper with electrical current.

Once they understand the problem, experts go more directly to the solution because of an extensive database of similar past problems/ solutions. They’ve already “been there, done that” so many times that not much electrical thinking is necessary. Non-experts, with less experience, have to sift through more alternatives, a process that keeps neural circuits lit up.

What does this science tell us about improving our golf? A quiet golf brain is an experienced golf brain, so it’s up to you to practice in order to implant the correct general swing program, then play as much as you can to build up your problems/solutions database. Just tell that to your boss when you take Tuesday off for golf.

TRY THIS

Fight the jitters Does the pressure of a big match get to you?

Try This: Breathing!

Work a deep breath into your preshot routine while standing behind the ball, then take a big inhale just before you start your swing and pull the trigger as you exhale.

THE RULE BOOK

Provisional ball

The key is to keep the right wrist angle while you lose the right elbow angle.

The piston has fully fired now, and the right arm and wrist are straight and in line.

BIRDIES AND BOGEYS

THE GOLF DOCTOR

Golf Digest has ranked the best golfers among stars from other sports. Here’s a sampling of notable names. A plus handicap means you have to give the course strokes, while a handicap without the plus means the course gives you strokes. Tiger Woods at the top of his game was about a plus 7.

It’s good to find out what the best golfers in the world do and then see if you can copy it. It’s also helpful to note the bad things the top players do and avoid them.

Imagine the number of people tugging on your cape if you were the No. 1 player in the world. To safeguard yourself, you’d need a gatekeeper, a trusted coach or agent or parent, to vet all the opinions thrown at you, protecting you from bad advice as well as from good advice that doesn’t apply to you. The gatekeeper is not only a filter, but also a guide everyone needs. No one is a Colossus unto himself.

In 2000, Tiger Woods was king of the vets.

He was enjoying 623 weeks as No. 1 in the world, and his inner circle was tight, but talented, especially Butch Harmon and his

A provisional is an additional ball that is hit in case the first ball cannot be found or is out of bounds. If the first ball is found, it is played. If the first ball is not found, the provisional must be played and the player is assessed a penalty stroke.

father, Earl. Other players, as good as they are, have had problems.

Greg Norman spent 331 weeks at the apogee, but by his own admission he could have been better had he had a gatekeeper.

“My biggest mistake in my golf career was thinking I could do it myself,” Norman says.

“I was so determined to do it Greg’s way, I was detrimental to myself. I truly believed in myself so much, but sometimes that total belief can misguide you — your biggest strength becomes a liability.”

To build the vet into your game, find a coach you can trust and lay out a plan together, then be sure to listen only to that voice. Give it time, and if it’s not working within two years, find another gatekeeper.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

“I know he can shoot in the 60s, a matter of shooting them when it counts.”

— Tiger Woods, tweeting about his partner at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro Am, Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo, and speculating on Romo’s chances of qualifying for the U.S. Open.

(Romo has a 2.2 handicap and has tried to qualify five times.)

ASK THE PRO Q: How do you explain to your students how to figure out whether to go for the pin on a particular shot from the fairway? Do you have any hard and fast rules? — A.M. A: In evaluating each shot, I ask my (serious) students to use my 1, 2, 3 coding system. First, evaluate the target’s position. Rate easy-to-hit fairways and unprotected pins as 1, for “go” or “attack.” Use 2 for a target whose position requires more caution. Rate difficult driving holes and protected pin placements a 3, for “no” or “play safe.”

How you rate the shot also depends on your “day swing,” how you’re playing that day. A 1 game is when you’re firing on all cylinders; 2 is when you’re

playing average; a 3 game is when your swing has deserted you and you can barely scrape it around.

This is a strictly personalized and subjective system. If you tried to play Luke Donald’s game, you’d run out of balls before you finished nine holes.

Therefore, it does no good to sprinkle your playing resume with puffery. In fact, it does great harm.

The last step is to rate the club you’ve selected.

Label it a 1 if it’s a strength (a club you hit well consistently), a 2 if it’s a moderate strength, and a 3 if it’s a weakness.

Now calculate your shot profile: Say your overall game is a 2 today. You’re planning a 110-yard shot to a pin in the front of the green (2), and you’re not

a very good short-iron player (3). This is a 2-2-3 situation. (The general guideline is to treat all front pin placements as 2s because, if you’re short of the flag, you’re probably not on the green.)

My suggestion is to have at least one 1 in your shot profile to consider going for it. In the above example, there are no 1s, so your best bet is to aim at the center of the green. If you were a strong short-iron player and your day swing was good, your coding would be a 1-2-1. With this rating, you’d have good justification to shoot at the pin.

Welcome to the jungle

Amazon provides setting for new ABC adventure series

By Dee Wright TV Media

J

ungles and rainforests have always been a mystery to explorers and laymen alike. Researchers and scientists have spent decades trying to map and navigate the wondrous thickets that cover much of the Earth. But when you’re searching for someone you love, even the thickest brush in the world won’t get in your way.

TV host and world-famous explorer Emmet Cole (Bruce Greenwood) disappears during his mission to the Amazon, and the world mourns the loss of one its best sci-

entists and television icons. But when his emergency beacon goes off six months after he is pronounced dead, his wife Tess (Leslie Hope) and son Lincoln (Joe Anderson) decide to go into the jungle to find him. Lincoln is reluctant to help find his father because he thinks his father was never there for him, focusing more on his TV show than his family.

Unfortunately, they have to ask Cole’s former producer, Clark, to fund the search mission, and he only agrees to do so if he can send a camera crew along with them to film a documentary. Past grudges and untrusting crew members make

the task even more grueling than it already was.

“The River” premieres Tuesday, Feb. 7, on ABC. When Cole went into the jungle, his experience and knowledge of animals and nature were enough to help him navigate the thick brush and deadly animals that live among the trees and vines. However, Tess, Lincoln and the inexperienced camera crew are completely unprepared for what lies ahead.

The jungle has provided a solid setting for several successful series, including ABC’s hit show “Lost.” Arguably the biggest series ABC had since “Alias” went off the air, “Lost” featured many of its plot lines revolving around the jungle and its mysteries.

In the non-fiction realm, the Amazon River has given explorer Jeremy Wade plenty of fodder for his series, “River Monsters.” Wade delves into the unexplored waters of the Amazon River to find his “monsters,” including piranhas, a 12-foot-long catfish and the arapaima, which can lunge at its prey with more than 150 pounds of force.

“The River” has “Paranormal Activity” writer Oren Peli behind it, so viewers can be sure that there will be suspense, mystery and even a little horror around every corner. There are also rumors that film legend Steven Spielberg will be dipping his hand in the production, as well.

Featurestory Blind ambition: Judges decide on vocals alone in ‘The Voice’

T

he Super Bowl may be big news for sports fans this week, but another television event has people buzzing as well. NBC brings back a competition series like no other as celebrities pick teams for a vocal match up designed to find champion vocalists. Carson Daly returns to host as talented singers vie for a shot at the big time in the season premiere of “The Voice,” airing Sunday, Feb. 5, on NBC. The show premieres in its regular time-slot the following night.

Part of an international series based on the original John de Mol Dutch TV series “The Voice of Holland,” the NBC show enlists the help of celebrity judges and mentors Christina Aguilera, Cee Lo Green, Adam Levine and Blake Shelton.

It isn’t just reality TV fans who are excited about “The Voice.” Even more music industry superstars have signed on to mentor the contestants in Season 2.

“These renowned musicians will bring their unique and recognizable musical styles to the teams,” said NBC exec Paul Telegdy. “They are well-respected singers whose invaluable experience will be a tremendous asset to Christina Aguilera, Cee Lo Green, Adam Levine and Blake Shelton’s artists.”

Singer/songwriter Jewel lends her ear to Aguilera’s team, as does music legend Lionel Richie. Green welcomes 10-time Grammy winner Kenny “Babyface” Edmonds to his roster of advisers, along with R&B icon Ne-Yo. Meanwhile, Levine will have the expertise of Canadian chanteuse Alanis Morrisette and

Last year’s prize went to Javier Colon, a singer-songwriter from Stratford, Conn., who’d previously been signed to Capitol Records.

While that contract fizzled out in 2006, Colon has had better luck thanks to his work on “The Voice,” which made him an instant star. After the show wrapped in June, he apparently wasted no time and by November he’d released the fulllength studio album “Come Through for You.” Notably, Levine, who was Colon’s “The Voice” mentor, is featured on the track “Stand Up.”

By Sheila Busteed TV Media READING YOUR MIND: Even after 125 years, the continuing interest in Sherlock Holmes and his hyper-observant abilities has spawned many copycats in modern television series.

CBS has done well with Patrick Jane in “The Mentalist,” which is now in its fourth season. Fox had Dr. Cal Lightman but then canned “Lie to Me” in 2011 after three seasons.

But the recent small-screen trend didn’t start with the big broadcast networks; it was a smaller player, USA, that encouraged the trend’s development with its hit series “Psych.”

And the cabler is proving that its show about using applied psychology to solve crimes is still a major contender. Viewership has been so consistently high that the network has renewed the series for a seventh season.

The news first broke via Facebook and Twitter when stars James Roday and Dule Hill made the announcement in an online video message. It was then confirmed by USA’s co-presidents, Chris McCumber and Jeff Wachtel.

“We are always trying to find ways to reward our ‘Psych’ brand ambassadors for their loyalty and passion, and social media plays a critical role in how we connect with the people who matter most: the fans,” they said in a statement. “It was exciting to deliver this historic news to them first and before traditional media.”

“Psych,” which is the longestrunning original program on the network, currently has more than two million Facebook fans, and its current season has proven to be the most popular in its five-year run. Season 6 will resume with new episodes on Wednesday, Feb. 29.

Known for his deadpan delivery, Shawn Spencer (played by Roday) uses his observation skills to help

the Santa Barbara Police Department solve unusual crimes. The officers are so perplexed by his talents that they think he’s psychic.

NEW SOAP HOME: Just after the sun sets on Llanview, several “One Life to Live” characters will find their way to Port Charles for “General Hospital.”

Actually, the clever move by executives at ABC is better seen as a ploy to satisfy fans of the now-defunct soap opera and boost viewership for one of the few that remain in an ailing daytime-TV market.

It’ll be one of the biggest crossover events in soap-opera history when Kassie DePaiva, Roger Howarth, Michael Easton and Kristen Alderson reprise their “OLTL” roles -- as Blair Cramer, Todd Manning, John McBain and Starr Manning, respectively -and join the cast of “General Hospital.”

The news broke in January, and the cast members began production

with their new sudser at the end of the month.

“We have a very exciting story planned for the citizens of Port Charles, with Sonny Corinthos at the center of it. I am confident viewers and fans alike will be excited for the arrival of John, Starr, Blair and Todd,” said executive producer Frank Valentini. “Incorporating characters from ‘One Life to Live’ (will) continue the legacy of the show as we weave them into ‘General Hospital.’”

The network hasn’t released a date that will mark the four stars’ debut on “GH,” but fans should expect it to come soon. This will allow for very little gap in the timeline of

these characters’ lives, since “OLTL” only left the airwaves on Jan. 13.

How their shared histories will be blended with the story arcs on “GH” remains a mystery. When their “OLTL” plot lines wrapped up, Todd and Blair had declared their ever-lasting love for one another, John just learned that he had a son, and Starr was torn between the father of her child or her current boyfriend.

For both DePaiva and Howarth, this will be the third soap opera in which they’ve starred. Before “OLTL,” DePaiva played Chelsea Reardon on “Guiding Light,” while Howarth previously starred as Paul Ryan on “As the World Turns.”

Epic rematch: Pats and Giants collide again for Super Bowl XLVI

By Joel Duplessis

F

our years ago, Eli Manning and the New York Giants crushed the New England Patriots’ bid for a 19-0 season, as well as the distinction as the greatest football team of all time. Now, with Super Bowl XLVI set to kick off from Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, quarterback Tom Brady is more than ready to exact some revenge on Manning and the Giants.

The storylines surrounding this game have been well documented in the two-week leadup to this epic Super Bowl rematch, airing Sunday, Feb. 5, on NBC. Being in Indianapolis, the game’s location is important to both teams.

The Patriots and Colts have become hated rivals in the last decade, and you can bet that most Colts fans don’t want to see Brady win a fourth title on their turf.

Meanwhile, Eli will be looking to surpass older brother Peyton with a second Super Bowl victory -- in a stadium that many consider was built on the heels of Peyton’s success.

If New England wins, Brady will etch his name in the NFL annals on a couple of levels. He would extend his incredible post-season record to 17-5 -- surpassing Joe Montana with the most playoff wins by a quarterback in NFL history. A Patriots win would also put Brady in a tie with Montana and Terry Bradshaw with four Super Bowl wins.

As for the game itself, don’t expect the same type of low-scoring defensive battle we saw four years ago. The Patriots will be looking to open things up early and force the Giants into an offensive battle. The Giants, on the other hand, will plan around the pass-rush and try to force Brady into some bad decisions. vs. Louisville. (Live) (2:00)

HollywoodQ&A

By Adam Thomlison TV Media Q: The music from “Hell on Wheels” is wonderful. Is there any talk of producing a CD of it?

A:”Hell on Wheels,” AMC’s new hit series set in the American frontier days just after the end of the Civil War, has an appropriately Americana-laced soundtrack. It strongly echoes the “O Brother, Where Art Thou” soundtrack (both feature tracks by gravelthroated bluegass great Ralph Stanley), the CD release of which was a massive seller in 2000.

Unfortunately, so far there are no plans for “Hell on Wheels” to try to repeat that feat -- there’s been no album release of the show’s first-season soundtrack so

far, and no word of one on the horizon.

Many of the songs were produced specifically for the series, too, so they can’t be found anywhere else -- including the show’s theme, penned by Oscar-winning composer Gustavo Santaolalla.

But if you take your time (and your wallet), you can collect a lot of the other songs featured on the show from other releases. For example, the Ralph Stanley track, “Twelve Gates to the City,” appeared on his self-titled 2002 album. Other songs, like “So Far From Your Weapon” by the Dead Weather (notable side project of Jack White of White Stripes fame), and “Annabelle” by Gillian Welch, are also available elsewhere.

One artist who does not appear on the soundtrack, not surprisingly perhaps, is one of the show’s

stars, Common. The rapperturned-actor plays Elam on the series, and though he’s still better known for his music than his acting, the show’s producers likely figured hip-hop wouldn’t fit well with the otherwise folk and country soundtrack.

Q: I just saw “Anonymous” and I was wondering if it was the same woman who played the Queen throughout the whole movie. Her life spans 50 years, and the character aged, but was it the same actress throughout?

A: It was in fact two different actresses who played the role of Queen Elizabeth I. The film spans decades in the late 1500s, and apparently the producers, opting against makeup, were concerned about making her aging believ-

able. So they did the next best thing to casting a single actress: they cast a mother and daughter.

Joely Richardson and her mother Vanessa Redgrave play Elizabeth, sometimes known as the Virgin Queen (though this film certainly suggests that nickname was not quite accurate).

It’s not the first time that the mother-daughter team has pulled this trick. The two also played the same character at different ages in the 1985 drama “Wetherby,” and the socially conscious 2004 drama “The Fever” -- which, incidentally, was directed and cowritten by Redgrave’s son and Richardson’s half-brother, Carlo Nero.

Indeed, the Redgrave-Richardsons have a long history of keeping things in the family. Joely Richardson and her sister,

Natasha Richardson, both had their first screen appearances in the classic 1968 war picture “The Charge of the Light Brigade,” which starred their mother Vanessa Redgrave, and was directed by their father, Tony Richardson. Both Richardson daughters played bit parts and went uncredited, however.

TV audiences might know the pair better for playing a mother and daughter on the hit FX Network series “Nip/Tuck.” They also appeared together in the 2009 miniseries adaptation of the sci-fi classic “The Day of the Triffids,” though their characters were unrelated.
