A tremendous dollar-saving and community-building program is now available to Chautauqua County residents thanks to a unique time exchange network that enables members to utilize their skills, talents and services by using time as currency. Chautauqua County NY Strong is a designated “time bank” that provides opportunities to save money on things such as home improvements, medical care and babysitting by encouraging residents to help one another by taking advantage of their individual talents. The three main goals of Chautauqua County NY Strong are: 1) Strengthen the fabric of the community 2) Serve people and give them a means to serve 3) Establish new relationships and meet real needs of community members “There are some amazing possibilities for individuals in the community and for the community as a whole as more and more people take advantage of this tremendous skills exchange,” said Julie Fagan, an associate professor at Rutgers University who is coordinating community time banks across the country.

“This helps engage people and often times motivates and stimulates community projects such as a new playground or a community garden to come to fruition. The opportunities really are unlimited, especially when you engage people from all walks of life to get involved.” For every hour that someone invests in helping a member or participating in the community exchange network program, they have an hour placed into a “time account” that they can later access to spend on any service offered by any other member of the network. Everyone’s time is valued equally, meaning one hour’s time provided by an attorney, plumber, landscaper, electrician, hair stylist or anyone else in the network is banked as one hour. A computer program helps provide a listing of each member’s specific skill set and their individual needs

and everyone’s time credits are recorded. Much like most other types of cooperative service organizations, the more people who join as members means the greater pool of services is available. In addition to the creation of professional relationships, time banks can also help foster friendships and improve relations amongst neighbors. “People get to meet each other and become friends and you generally see more direct interaction when people share their skills through community exchanges,” said Fagan. “We recognize that each individual has talents to share and that the overall community is strengthened when neighbors help one another. Using time credits by redeeming for services for others generates the never-ending cycle of sharing.” The launch of the local time bank has already provided

many opportunities for individuals to get involved in their community. The system has brought many in- CALL US FOR YOUR NEXT dividuals together, including HOME IMPROVEMENT PROJECT helping pull some residents out of isolation by introducing them to fulfilling professional and personal relationships with other people, some of whom they may WE’VE GOT YOU COVERED! have lived near but never re38 TEMPLE ST., FREDONIA 679.0300 ally had a specific reason to 332 FLUVANNA AVE., JAMESTOWN 338.0300 reach out to their neighbor.

out what you stand for, and stand for it until you die. If our founding fathers were as f lippant with their passions and their desires as we are today, we’d all still have British passports. I’ve heard the saying, “be on the right side of history.” The right side of history, in my opinion, is the one that sides with God first and country second. The issue with the Republican Party is a total disdain for religion in general. They list themselves as Catholic, Christian, Mormon, etc., so as not to exclude a voting base, but we’re to judge a tree by its fruit. If it quacks like a duck, walks like a duck etc., it’s definitely not a dog. Republicans need to focus on uniting their party base, rather than taking continual jabs at the ‘enemy’s.’ If we’re so focused on the other car in the race, we’re going to miss the four f lat tires we’re running on.

“running in the Republican party today is a hard thing to do.” Why? It’s simple, really. Today’s Democrats are a (generally) united beast. I don’t like speaking in ultimatums, so please filter my statements through that disclaimer. Generally, Democrats agree on the majority of the core issues. Republicans, however, tend to disagree, even with each other, about subjects as fickle way the grass is growing. Jesus Christ Himself once said, “a kingdom divided cannot stand,” and that holds true 2,000 years later. I read articles about those thinking of running for political office, who the GOP will stand behind, etc., and aside from a miracle from God I see little chance of one of them getting into office. Why? Because conservatives don’t know what conservatives stand for. If you are a rightswinger, then swing right. If you’re in the middle, then be in the middle. But for crying out loud, pick something. Figure

The goal of RecruitNY is that the collaborative effort among volunteer fire departments statewide will turn the declining number of volunteer firefighters around. RecruitNY is one example of FASNY’s key initiatives to recruit and retain volunteers. Over the last year and a half, FASNY has worked exceptionally hard to build and deploy a multitiered plan for helping New York state’s more than 1,700 volunteer fire departments recruit more than 15,000 new volunteer firefighters across the state by utilizing federal SAFER grant funds for programs including the “Fire in You” advertising campaign, FASNY

HELP community college tuition reimbursement program, and recruitment training classes. Established in 2011, RecruitNY is a joint undertaking by the Firemen’s Association of the State of New York (FASNY), the New York State Association of Fire Chiefs (NYSAFC), Association of Fire Districts of New York State, Volunteer Fire Police Association of the State of New York, and County Fire Coordinators Association of the State of New York. For fire departments that would like to sign up for RecruitNY, simply log on to http:// recruitny.org/opendoors.php and fi ll out the participation form. The program provides fire departments with access to recruitment resources, communication tools, posters, banners, etc. via http:// recruitny.org/resources. php to help a firehouse host a recruitment open house. For area residents looking for more information, or to fi nd out if your fire department is participating in RecruitNY, visit www.recruitny.org or contact your local fire department via a non-emergency phone number or its website.

cording to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Over time, successful vaccination campaigns have contributed to the elimination or nearelimination of some diseases in the United States, like polio. But today, rates of some diseases are increasing and could continue to do so if vaccination rates decrease. Serious side effects following vaccination, such as severe allergic reaction, are very rare. The disease prevention benefits of getting vaccines are much greater than the possible side effects for almost all children. "Vaccination is very

safe and effective," added Schuyler. "While some discomfort, redness, or tenderness at the site of injection may occur, this is minimal compared to the pain and suffering caused by the diseases these vaccines prevent." There has been a resurgence of measles and whooping cough (Pertussis) over the past few years. In 2013, more than 11,000 cases of whooping cough were reported, with cases in every state. According to Schuyler, Public Health staff investigated 53 cases of Pertussis in Chautauqua County in 2013. Most

currently, there was an outbreak of measles in New York City and Mumps in Ohio. Unfortunately, some babies are too young to be completely vaccinated and some people may not be able to receive certain vaccinations due to severe allergies or weakened immune systems. This leaves them vulnerable to vaccine preventable disease. To help keep them safe, it is important that adults and children who are able to get vaccinated are fully immunized. Most vaccinations are covered by health insurance; for those

children without insurance, the Vaccines for Children (VFC) program provide vaccinations at no cost. To fi nd out more about the VFC program, visit http://www. cdc.gov/vaccines/ programs/vfc/ or ask your child's health care professional.

Opera House To Present Audience Participation Show

Contributed Article ence members actually 1891 Fredonia Opera House

The 1891 Fredonia Opera House will present the uproarious comedy show, Bible Bingo, on Sun., Apr. 27, at 3 p.m. A uniquely funny stage show that incorporates a lot of audience participation, Bible Bingo is the latest in a series of shows from Vicki Quade, creator of the hit comedy Late Nite Catechism. The show presents a riotous night of Bible trivia, audience interaction, wacky prizes, Catholic humor and, of course, Bingo! The premise of Bible Bingo is that the local parish needs money, so the pastor decides to call in Mrs. Mary Margaret O’Brien, a former nun who now heads the fund-raising department for the archdiocese. Ever-ready to help, Mrs. O’Brien resorts to the Catholic Church’s reliable standby – Bingo! But not your usual game of bingo, mind you. Mrs. O’Brien’s bingo incorporates religious themes, humor and the funniest quiz about the Holy Family you’ve ever heard! During the show, audi-

play several games of bingo and compete for wacky prizes. But watch your cards carefully, for a false Bingo results in an embarrassing trip to the penalty chair! The show will have audience members talking about everything from Adam & Eve to modern sin! Called “a masterful insight into the idiosyncrasies of the Catholic Church” and “more fun than Sodom and Gomorrah,” Bible Bingo is a guaranteed night of divine entertainment! Reserved seating tickets to Bible Bingo are $27 ($25 Opera House members) and may be purchased in person at the Opera House Box Office or by phone at 716-679-1891, Tuesday through Friday, 1-5 p.m. They also may be purchased online any time at www.fredopera. org. The performance is presented, in part, with support from the United Arts Appeal of Chautauqua County. The 1891 Fredonia Opera House is a member-supported, not-for-profit performing arts center located in Village Hall in downtown Fredonia. A complete schedule of Opera House events is available at www.fredopera.org.

The list of retailers in violation of the ATUPA can be found on the HHS website at http:// ny-chautauquacounty. civicplus.com/243/ Environmental-Health. In order to comply with the law, vendors must: • Keep all tobacco products and herbal cigarettes behind a counter in an area accessible only to employees or in a locked container. • Sell tobacco and herbal cigarettes only to people who are 18 years of age or older.

• Post a sign that customers can easily see that reads: "Sale of Cigarettes, Cigars, Chewing Tobacco, Powdered Tobacco, Shisha or Other Tobacco Products, Herbal Cigarettes, Electric Cigarettes, Rolling Papers or Smoking Paraphernalia to persons under eighteen years of age is prohibited by law". • Not sell single cigarettes. All cigarettes must be sold in the manufacturer's packaging. Effective January 1, 2013 the sale of electronic cigarettes are prohibited to individuals less than 18 years of age. Electronic cigarettes, also known as e-cigarettes, are battery operated products designed to deliver nicotine, flavor and other chemicals. They

turn nicotine, which is highly addictive, and other chemicals into a vapor that is inhaled by the user. The safety of e-cigarettes has not been fully studied and consumers have no way of knowing how much nicotine or other potentially harmful chemical are being inhaled. It is also not known if e-cigarettes may lead young people to try other tobacco products, including conventional cigarettes, which are known to cause disease and may lead to premature death.

Judge Joseph gerace to speak At the robert H. Jackson Center Contributed Article Robert H. Jackson

The Robert H. Jackson Center will host the 2nd Annual Stanley Weeks Law Day Lecture, co-hosted by the Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonary Valley of Jamestown, with keynote speaker Judicial Hearing Office Judge Joseph Gerace on Monday April 28 at 7 p.m. The focus of Judge Gerace’s address will correspond with the national 2014 theme for Law Day, American Democracy and the Rule of Law: Why Every Vote Matters. This event is free and open to the general public. A dedicated public figure,

Judge Joseph Gerace’s career spans over 50 years of public service in Chautauqua County and New York State. A trial lawyer for over 20 years, Gerace was elected as Chautauqua County’s first County Executive, a position he held for eight years until his appointment as the New York State Commissioner of Agriculture. In 1992 Gerace was elected to the New York State Supreme Court, where he served until he reached its mandatory retirement age in 2003. After his retirement, he was appointed as a Judicial Hearing Officer, a position he currently serves in. Following Gerace’s Law Day presentation he will be interviewed about his career

in public service. The annual Law Day Lecture honors not just one, but two of Chautauqua County’s most prominent community leaders. The program’s namesake, Stanley Weeks was a highly accomplished attorney and active community leader, serving as Mayor of the City of Jamestown, Jamestown Board of Education, County Board of Supervisors, Director of Jamestown Chamber of Commerce along with many additional leadership roles for area organizations. Weeks was also an ardent Freemason, serving in many official roles for local lodges. The Stanley Weeks Law

Day Lecture coincides with Law Day celebrations on a national level. Established in 1958 by President Dwight Eisenhower, Law Day is a day set aside to celebrate the rule of law and recognize how law and the legal process contribute to American citizens’ freedoms. Annually a theme is chosen to highlight a particular aspect of the rule of law or legal process. The 2014 theme is pertinent on the eve of this year’s 50th Anniversary of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. The Robert H. Jackson Center’s mission is to advance the legacy of Robert H. Jackson—U.S. Supreme

Court Justice and Chief U.S. Prosecutor of the major Nazi war criminals following WWII at the International Military Tribunal (IMT) trial at Nuremberg—through education and exhibits, and by pursuing the relevance of his ideas for future generations. The Center is located at 305 East Fourth Street, Jamestown, NY. Tours are available from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m., Monday – Saturday. For more information, or to schedule a tour of the Center outside of regular business hours, e-mail info@ roberthjackson.org or contact the Robert H. Jackson Center at (716) 483-6646.

Chairing the show is the group’s current president, Elaine Caflisch, who teaches porcelain painting, works in acrylics and watercolors, and has designed cards for the National Osteoporosis Foundation. A special feature this year will be collaborative pieces reflecting the work of several artists such as a porcelain necklace with handmade glass beads and a carved wooden box decorated with painting and beading inserts.

Both sessions begin at 10 a.m. To reserve a seat, call 363-6500 for the Dunkirk session and 338-1005 for the Jamestown session.

Celebrating safety

Contributed Article Cassadaga Job Corps Academy

Fredonia NY- Safety is among the Core Values of the Cassadaga Job Corps Academy, and if you ask around, it is job #1 at the training facility. Further evidence of the safe working record at the Academy is the recent milestone of one year worked without a lost time accident. “Safety impacts every area of our campus and influences all of our other values and plans. Every student and staff member has the responsibility to act safely and report unsafe conditions” stated Safety Manager Curan Grabias. As part of a recent employee recognition night, a few staff were highlighted for working safely and promoting safety across the campus. Three of the Academy’s drivers were recognized for an accident free year. Austin Ginley, of Dunkirk, John Ryder of Fredonia and George Topczij, of Fredonia were all honored for

touring the center on the lookout for hazards. He distinguishes himself by volunteering many hours to the Academy beyond the daily routines of his job title. Kelly, the Chief of the Lily Dale Volunteer Fire Department, arranges numerous safety demonstrations on campus, plays a crucial role in training staff on safety as well as first aid and CPR and also helps coordinate the Academy Safety Cadet Pictured above are Safety Employee of the Year program.

Westfield business Fundamental Wealth Management has found a successful niche in the lives of residents all over Chautauqua County. The team there, led by Financial Consultants Robert Strang and Eric Ferry, does little advertising of their services; most of their new business is generated solely by word of mouth and referrals. The goal at Fundamental Wealth? To provide education and customized plans to their clients. “I’ve been in the financial services industry for 15 years,” said Strang, who originally worked as a captive agent for a company, helping individuals plan for retirement and learn how to optimize their 401ks. “Since then, it just progressed to where we’re at today.” Ferry and Strang joined that partnership eight years ago. Since then, they decided to form their own company, which has since bro-

Contributed Article what Fredonia is now: Riley Straw

Picture Fredonia, NY, in 1980: the oversized hair, the bright legwarmers, pleather and one essential aspect that many don’t know about — the first Fredoniafest. The drinking age was 18, and spirits had never been livelier. That was until, in the Fall 2013 semester, Matt Mincin, a senior business major at SUNY Fredonia and co-organizer of FREDstock, announced the development of the music festival. With headliners Sophistafunk and Ocupanther, as well as local performers, such as Mooses, Inlite, Mr. Boneless, Intrepid Travelers, Buxom and Yonic, FREDstock will be held Friday, May 2, to Saturday, May 3. Other performers will include Well Worn Boot, Honey Spine, Haewa, Seven Central and Electric Church. The event plans to bring the original vibe of Fredoniafest — one that encouraged camaraderie between students and villagers — back to the heart of

a school known largely for its partying. So far, the event has included features such as a graphic design contest for the official logo of the event and a series, titled “Road to FREDstock,” that showcases the individual bands that will perform on FREDstock weekend. “We sat down and talked about students and how it’s kind of ridiculous that students go downtown, get drunk, repeat the cycle,” Mincin said in an interview with the SUNY Fredonia news publication, The Leader. As per the FREDstock website, http:// www.fredstock.org, “The Fredstock Music Festival organization is composed of college students who want to alleviate the negative impact of the underground house party scene that happens in Fredonia at the end of each spring semester and turn it into something positive.” Mincin hopes that FREDstock will change the public opinion about Fredonia students: that they have

more to offer the community than mayhem and partying. Although the event will be held in Willow Creek Winery in Silver Creek (and not in the village of Fredonia), the free shuttle service to and from the campus will promote an ease of attendance. “I’m really excited for it,” said SUNY Fredonia sophomore English major Sean Patrick. “I think it’s going to be very beneficial for the local community, vendors and musicians alike.” Patrick also acts as the guitarist and vocalist for one of the bands that will play at FREDstock, Yonic. Artie Kornfeld, cofounder of Woodstock, the globally recognized music festival, came to Fredonia to speak about the work he did in preparation for his event and to show support for Mincin’s FREDstock. Rumor has also circulated that Kornfeld will act as guest speaker for the event, but no official announcements have yet been made. The promotional flier also mentioned that a half-pipe, mechanical bull, and fireworks will

all be present. Additionally, vendors from across the county — and some from the far reaches of New York State — will be in attendance to sell various FREDstock merchandise. Bars and other establishments well-recognized by the community in Fredonia will also put on shows in promotion of FREDStock after the event on Friday and Saturday. The event is scheduled at the same time as Fredfest, SUNY Fredonia’s annual music festival, and this has caused some issues on the campus; with both events taking place at the same time in different places, students, faculty and community members are on edge to see what exactly the turnout for both events will be. Tickets are $25 in advance at $35 on the day of the festival. For more information, visit the event’s website, follow it on Twitter, like it on Facebook, and contact the FREDstock officials via their email, FREDstockManagement.gmail.com. FREDstock starts at 3 p.m.

not Just Another day in may

By Dodi Kingsfield Contributing Writer

Midway between the spring and summer equinox lies not just another day in May, but a day designated in ancient times as the first day of summer. With the equinox as midsummer in the Northern hemisphere, taking the time to celebrate the arrival of warmer weather followed by abundant crops has been a tradition dating back thousands of years. Not to be confused with the distress call, May Day is traditionally celebrated on the first day of the month of May. May Day is similar to other rites of spring in Europe such as the Celtic Beltane, the Roman festival of Flora and Germany’s Walpurgis Night. May Day has been celebrated throughout Europe in countries such as Britain, France, Finland, Germany and Ireland, where fields are planted and farmers are ready to take a break from their hard work and join in the community festivities to help ensure a fertile and abundant harvest. Modern May Day celebrations have veered away from the historical fertility rituals affi liated with its roots, but some May Day traditions remain as they have for hundreds of years. One of the most common traditions of May Day that continues today is the dancing around the Maypole. Colorful ribbons or streamers in shades of spring and summer are attached to a tall pole or tree where they are hoisted to the top and held at the long ends by members of the community. Carefully choreographed, participants weave back and forth in opposite directions until the Maypole is covered by this

Traditional May Day celebrations include dancing around the Maypole where participants weave colorful ribbons around the pole as a sign that summer has officially begun.

intricately weaved pattern of ribbons, topped by a flowered wreath or other symbol of spring. The decorated Maypole remains intact as a sentinel to the summer season and the joy it brings until replaced by next year’s Maypole during the new May Day celebration. In addition to the Maypole, a young girl is often designated as the Queen of the May and mistress of ceremonies over the May Day festivities. Roman Catholics have a similar tradition in their dedication of the month of May to honoring the Blessed Virgin Mary and crowning of a May Queen on May

first as their own mistress of religious ceremony. Another modern May Day tradition is the giving of May baskets. These decorated baskets are fi lled with signs of summer and celebration such as flowers and sweet treats and are anonymously delivered to neighbors and friends on their doorstep to welcome the arrival of summer. This long time tradition is a favorite of young children who enjoy the challenge of delivering gifts without getting caught by the receivers of their handiwork. Originally a springtime

celebration for farming communities, with the evolution of the industrial era and non-agricultural based employment, May Day has also become associated with the rights of workers around the world, very similar to the United States’ Labor Day celebration. Ironically, known as International Worker’s Day around the world, this modern May Day designation was based on an event that occurred in the United States, yet is not recognized in this country as an official holiday. On this day in 1886, workers were protesting to fight for an eight hour work day in Chicago

when a bomb went off in the crowd set off by an unknown source. Similar to the Kent State University episode of the seventies, police officers killed several innocent protesters in response. Not shortly thereafter, May Day was designated as International Workers Day to honor those who lost their lives for this cause. This also became the basis for choosing May Day as the day for Occupy Wall Street demonstrations, a grassroots campaign intended to enlighten others and challenge the system which rewards the few by the labor of others. Whether it’s the hard work of farming communities or the endless labor of our work force, for thousands of years May Day celebrations have honored those who provide and continue to provide for the benefit of others and not just themselves: farmers that desire ample crops to feed the masses, laborers that dedicate their lives and long days to provide for their families and others, Mother Earth who provides fertile soil and sufficient water to ensure successful crops year after year, and religious icons such as the Blessed Virgin Mary and Germany’s St. Walburga who loved unconditionally and brought spiritual happiness and guidance to the people. May Day is the celebration of the good things that life has to offer and serves as an annual reminder to take the time to honor those that make this life possible through their sacrifice and hard work. It’s not just another day in May, it’s May Day. So celebrate the first day of May, for summer has arrived!

ing garments.” We see that the women came to customarily anoint Jesus’ body. But what they saw caused confusion. Why? The answer came from angels who were at the tomb. Luke 24:6, “He is not here, but is risen! Remember how He spoke to you when He was still in Galilee, 7) saying, 'The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.” 8) And they remembered His words.” It seems that they had forgotten what Jesus taught. But once they remembered, their confusion vanished and was replaced with great joy! So what was the problem? The women were deep in the natural aspects of mourning. Unfortunately, their faith got displaced. The Bible tells us that a God-kind of faith confidently stands firm on what He said (Hebrews 10:22; 11:1) and trusts that His prom-

Alive, Raised, and Seated

Rev. Michael Lokietek Family Church Fredonia fcfredonia.org

Dear Pastor, if the death and resurrection of Jesus made a way for us to go to heaven, why doesn’t everyone go there when they die? Before I answer, I want to share what happened at the tomb of Jesus. We see in Luke 24:1-5, the women, “…came to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepared. 2) But they found the stone rolled away from the tomb. 3) Then they went in and did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. 4) And it happened, as they were greatly perplexed about this, that behold, two men stood by them in shin-

ises are a sure thing… regardless of what the circumstances look like! If the women had been standing firm and focusing on what Jesus had declared then they wouldn’t have been upset; they’d have known that He had risen! But they were Believers and as soon as they were reminded of His words, their faith was renewed and they ran to inform the others what had happened. So what do these scriptures tell us? That it isn’t believing that Jesus existed that pleases God, its believing in His Words and knowing His promises are true. That takes faith. The Bible tells us in Romans 10:9, “…that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.” We must believe and say that we believe in order to qualify for salvation and an eternity with Him.

to say that you raised with Christ. In God's legal mind you walked out of that resurrection tomb with Jesus on that first Passover Sunday. Then it goes on to say that you sat down with Jesus on His throne at the right hand of the Father with Him! That's how God looks at the Christian! Crucified, buried, alive, raised, and seated on Christ's throne! That right there is the cure for the common life! Life does not have to be ordinary; it can be lived from the viewpoint of Christ's throne! What does it mean to be ALIVE with Christ? It means that the sin nature of humanity is dead, buried, and gone. (Rom 6:2) But what if we don't live that way? If we don't live that way then we are forfeiting a life filled with power and victory that legally belongs to us. Romans 6:11 says, "Likewise reckon yourselves dead indeed to sin but ALIVE to God through Christ." The word "reckon" means "come to a final conclusion." The Christian that keeps living in sin has never come to the conclusion that sin was buried in the grave with Jesus never to be revived in their life again. When you have come to a mental conclusion that you are seated with Christ you will not continue to yield to the same old life.

FREDOniA HiLLBiLLiES START FRESH AFTER STATE CHAMPiOnSHiP

By Stefan Gestwicki Star Sports Editor

When the 2013 high school baseball season ended and there was just one team left standing, it was the Fredonia Hillbillies. Coming off that New York State Class B championship, Fredonia entered this new season with high, yet perhaps tempered, expectations. “It’s a totally new year,” Fredonia head coach Vince Gullo said. “We have a few returning players from last year. Last year was a dream season and this group of boys is hopefully going to create additional memories this year. “We’ve lowered expectations slightly,” Gullo admitted. “We’re aiming to reach the sectional final game.” A big part of the Hillbillies’ success this season will rest on the arms of senior Weston Ley and junior Cam Voss. Ley sports a 10-2 career record on the mound while Voss is an astounding 14-0. “Our 3-4-5 pitchers are still being worked out,” Gullo added. “Noah Voss, Jared Burmaster and Tyler DiRusso are all in the mix.” Fredonia is in a unique situation in that all nine starters were on the state-championship roster last year, yet only three were in last year’s lineup. Burmaster is moving from third base to shortstop

and is now in the lineup hitting as well. Cody Smith is moving from the 9-spot all the way up to No. 3 in the order. Sophomore Mike Pucci and freshman Lucas Voss are also “pretty good sticks,” according to Gullo. “We have a lot of young guys in the lineup that aren’t used to varsity pitching yet,” Gullo noted. “We’ll continue to work on that all year. I’m confident. These kids are terrific athletes.” Thus far it’s business as usual for Gullo and his team. Fredonia is off to a 5-2 start overall and 2-0 in the division. One of those losses came in a 10-4 loss to Olean in a game that was the Hillbillies’ second of the day. The second loss came to Harbor Creek, a Pennsylvania school. In the team’s first seven games, it’s been evident that Fredonia has a big target on its collective back. “We’ve already seen it this

year in every game we’ve played,” Gullo said. “Teams have played their No. 1 pitchers against us. It’s good for us, though. It will make us a better team facing stiffer competition.” That’s a trend that’s likely to continue for the Hillbillies, who should be involved in a number of low-scoring games thanks to the 1-2 punch of Ley and Voss. Of course, Gullo knows as well as anyone that depth is important. “The one thing the weather does is make it more urgent when you can play,” he explained. “Cam and Weston have only had two outings each on the mound because games have been so crammed together. We’ll need more guys to step up. We just roll with it.” While winning a state championship could make some teams content, Fredonia has a trio of seniors and a host of other players that are hungry for more.

“Seniors Cody Smith, Weston Ley and Matt Sheridan are providing the leadership necessary to be successful,” Gullo stated. “They’re great young men and it’s a different type of leadership this year. Everyone is trying to prove themselves.” While it’s nice to be out to a 5-2 start, Gullo clearly had the long-term approach in mind when discussing the regular season. “Every other coach is putting us at the top of the division,” he said. “To be honest, we’re just using the regular season to prepare for the playoffs and for players to fi nd their roles and strengths. We’ll work on our weaknesses and be ready come playoff time. “We’re already 2-0 in the division,” Gullo concluded. “Our next big game is our next league game against Frewsburg on Monday. We’ll try to get it going again after the break.”

nBA, nHL Playoffs Are Always Fun By Stefan Gestwicki Star Sports Editor

The National Football League is king (and will be king for the foreseeable future) in the United States. Yet, there’s just something undeniably fun about the playoff formats of the National Basketball Association and the National Hockey League. Continued on Pg 25

CHAUTAUQUA STAR FRIDAY, APRIL 25, 2014

COMMEnTARY, COnTinUED FROM PAgE 24 While neither basketball nor hockey is as physical as football (it’s true no matter what you think hockey fans), both sports have a whole lot of pushing, shoving, yelling, hitting, checking, slapping and intensity. When you combine all of those things with the seven-game series format of both the NBA and NHL playoffs, you can get rivalries formed in an instant. Look at the Columbus Blue Jackets and the Pittsburgh Penguins. No one in their right mind would consider them ‘rivals,’ but after three extremely entertaining back-and-forth games (at the time of this writing), there’s no question these two teams will be at each other’s throats the rest of the series. Or how about the Colorado Avalanche and the Minnesota Wild? Those two teams have already played two overtime games and have had a hit lead to a suspension and a potentially season-ending injury. The rest of that series is borderline mustsee TV thanks to the new-found bad blood between the teams.

In the NBA you have Dirk Nowitzki and Tim Duncan, conceivably the two greatest power forwards in the history of the league, battling it out in an all-Texas matchup in the first round. While we’re only one game into the series, these two teams defi nitely have history that make the series much more than a simple 1 v. 8 matchup. The series I might be most excited about in the NBA’s fi rst-round action is the Portland Trailblazers against the Houston Rockets. Portland forward LaMarcus Aldridge has become one of the premier big men in the league and torched the Dwight Howard-led Rockets for 46 points in the Blazers’ Game One win. If you’re not familiar with Aldridge, do yourself a favor and YouTube some of his highlights. He’s fun to watch. I’ve talked about it in the past, but the one thing that turns me off of the NBA is the Miami Heat. I grew up watching superstars like Michael Jordan and Karl Malone go at each other and genuinely dislike each other. Charles Barkley and

Portland’s LaMarcus Aldridge provided the highlight of the first games of the NBA playoffs with a 46-point effort against Houston. (AP Photo/Don Ryan)

Shawn Kemp would jaw with each other all game long and it was great. I don’t want my superstars teaming up to form a mega-team. That’s weak. Wouldn’t it have been much more entertaining to watch Dwyane Wade and LeBron James go head-to-head rather than stomping the Bobcats and the Bucks by 35 points per night? To make matters worse, it seems like the NBA has somehow colluded with the Heat to make sure every other team in the Eastern Conference is total garbage, all but assuring Miami of a spot in the NBA Championship game. I hate it. It’s everything I hate about college sports brought to the pro level. At the beginning of the

season you couldn’t legitimately make an argument for anyone but Miami to come out of the East. Now that we’re in the playoffs, nothing has changed. Of course, Derrick Rose’s total inability to get/stay healthy has a lot to do with that. The Bulls would be a much different team with the former MVP in the lineup. It’s also disappointing for a Phoenix Suns fan like myself. The Suns were expected to do absolutely nothing in this season. They were projected to be one of the worst teams in the league and secure one of, if not the, top pick in the draft. You know what they did? The Suns shocked everyone by putting together a dynamic 48-34 season only to miss the playoffs

in a stacked Western Conference. Do you know how many teams won more than 48 games in the East? Two. Just Indiana and Miami. Atlanta made the playoffs with a losing record. Did I mention how terrible the East is? Tanking is a horrible problem in the NBA, too, but that’s a topic for another day. And don’t get me wrong, none of this that I’m complaining about makes the playoffs any less fun. If you don’t love a seven-game series that’s back-andforth the whole way with superstars making clutch shots and every possession mattering, well, then something is wrong with you. The NHL playoffs are always, always fun. I don’t even really like hockey, but it’s that series factor that really draws me in. Plus, let’s be honest here, the Stanley Cup is sport’s greatest trophy. Yes, I love the Lombardi Trophy and the World Series championship trophy is pretty cool, too, but there’s nothing that can top Lord Stanley’s Cup. Of course, I can’t fi nish this commentary without airing my one

grievance about playoff hockey. Actually, the problem is more with the difference between the regular season and the playoffs. Fighting. You never (obviously I don’t mean NEVER) see fighting in the playoffs. So why do hockey purists argue that it’s so important to the game and it can’t be eliminated? Truthfully I don’t care if it’s eliminated from the game or not. It’s fun to watch two guys throw down when the game calls for it. But if players truly police themselves through fighting, why doesn’t it happen when the games matter most? So if you like fighting, just say you like it, don’t feed me this garbage about it being crucial to the game. It’s not. Thanks as always for reading.

Golfer's By Stefan Gestwicki This week, the weather Star Sports Editor

The Golfer’s Diary is a weekly column for golf lovers. I am entering my third season as a golfer, so I’m not sure I totally qualify as a novice anymore, but I’ll discuss different courses, weather effects, new equipment and more relating to the game we love. Last week I wrote about my first time out golfing this season. Despite wind gusts of 30 mph and having six months of rust weighing me down, I was able to shoot a 49, meeting my goal of keeping it under 50.

was much nicer, the wind was calm, the fairways were drier and I was feeling much looser and more confident. So of course I went out and shot an ugly (I can’t stress ‘ugly’ enough) 53. Truthfully these are the rounds when I wish I didn’t write about golf because I’m rather embarrassed. That’s a really bad score and it might not even show just how poorly I played on this day at Pinehurst Golf Course in Westfield. Let me start by say-

D i a ry

THE SECOnD ROUnD…nOT SO gOOD ing the Swansons have been doing work on the course. They’ve reseeded a bunch of the tee boxes, cleared what must have been tons of debris from the harsh winter and mowed everything to near mid-season quality. I couldn’t help but be impressed by the condition of the course despite a severe lack of nice days as we reach the end of April. Alas, the fine course conditions did nothing to help my game. Oddly, it didn’t even start off so bad. Nos. 1 & 2 at Pinehurst are holes that tend to give

me trouble for one reason or another. They aren’t inherently difficult, but I start slower at Pinehurst than I do at any course I’ve ever played. Perhaps it’s in my head. But even on a day when I ended up with a rather terrible score, I began the day with a pair of bogeys. I actually had a very makeable par putt on No. 1. The wheels fell off in a big way on No. 3. My drive was bad, but not abysmal. It tailed off to the right and ended up on the fairway of No. 2, which isn’t really all that bad of a position to be in. Another golfer actually picked up my ball, but was very apologetic when he realized it was one being played. He said he saw a Callaway and got excited. We’ve all been there before I’m sure. But then I simply couldn’t get the ball in the hole. My irons were off. My chipping was bad. Only a relatively long putt kept me at a natural eight. Yes, the dreaded snowman had to be saved by a long putt. It was a hole to forget. No. 4 is the first of two par 3’s and the site of the first holein-one that I’ve ever seen. Because of that, I tend to think happy thoughts when I’m on the tee box. I hit what I thought was a beauty of

a shot. The ball sailed off my club, straight as an arrow with plenty of loft right at the green. Unfortunately I think I simply used the wrong club and the ball fell a good 20 feet shy of the green. A short chip and two putts gave me another bogey. While Bryan played No. 5 pretty well, I reverted back to struggling. He hit a gorgeus tee shot while mine actually got lost in a puddle. No. 5 runs along the railroad tracks at the back of the course and was really the only hole on the course still obviously affected by the weather. But of course, that’s only if you hit it down the right side, which of course I did. I also did something I rarely, if ever do — I hit an iron over the green. Since the first day I picked up a club three years ago, I’ve generally played golf pretty safely. I’ll choose the club that might land me in front of the green, but one I know I can land safely with. Call it beginning-ofthe-season rust, but I once again chose the wrong club and flew my ball well over the green. After that I struggled to get an easy shot and triplebogeyed. Thank goodness for No. 6. It’s a very long, intimidating hole that

has the green way uphill at the end of 500 yards of fairway. It’s really quite fun because you can use 3-hybrids that you might not otherwise get to hit on shorter courses or holes. Somehow I’ve recorded a par each of the two times I’ve played this year. How? A pair of very good pitching wedge shots and therefore a pair of one-putts. The second par 3 wasn’t too bad, but once again I closed the course with a pair of sevens. I knew my score wasn’t good, but I also knew that I had a ‘7’ on each of the fi nal two holes on my previous scorecard and it was a chance to make up a few strokes from that season-opening 49 a week ago. I failed miserably and ended with a pair of sevens again. All I could do was shake my head and wait for the next nice day to get out there and improve. Do you have a course you want me to play and write about? Do you have a topic you’d like to see covered in the Golfer’s Diary? Do you just want to talk golf with a relatively inexperienced, but passionate golfer? Shoot me an email at stefan. gestwicki@star-mediagroup.com.

If two or more creatures are tied for the lowest, play continues until there is just one lowest. The creature with the lowest number is killed and bets on that creature are lost. The game continues until there are just three creatures remaining or until the draw deck is extinguished. The player with the most gold wins.

OvERviEW

Colossal Arena has worked fantastically with two, three and four players. Players rarely play the same strategy twice because you never know what cards you’ll be dealt and draw. While some of the monsters abilities are more helpful at

certain times, I haven’t found one creature to be inherently more powerful than any other. It seems incredibly balanced and a whole lot of fun. The only negative thing I have to say about Colossal Arena is that the theme is potentially non-existent. What I mean is that the game could be nearly anything — racing, for instance, makes as much sense as battling the way the game plays. I never truly felt like I was in a colosseum watching a melee. It doesn’t exactly detract from the game experience, it just doesn’t add anything to it.

TO OWn OR nOT TO OWn

This is a game I wish I had owned sooner. I will bring it out almost regardless of who is in my game group at the time. I’ve taught it three separate times over the course of the past week and everyone has grasped the concept almost immediately. It’s rare that I would say a game is a must own, but Colossal Arena fits the bill. The box is small. The artwork is fantastic. It’s easy to learn. It’s affordable. But most of all, it’s just plain fun.

The third time proved to be the charm as he completed the whitewash, allowing four hits and striking out seven en route to a 1-0 victory. The game's only run was scored when Conner Lorenzo connected on a base hit scoring Matt Casilio. Just three days earlier, Larson took a 1-0 shutout into the ninth vs. Brockport. He also worked a 2-0 shutout into the ninth vs. New Paltz. Each game, he couldn't quite get over the hump.

Patrick Kane had his shot all along. Same for his dazzling puck-handling skills and the vision that sees the plays before they happen. What Kane got back on Wednesday night was his legs, and the result was a familiar one. Kane scored his second goal of the game at 11:17 of overtime, and the Chicago Blackhawks beat the St. Louis Blues 4-3 to even their first-round playoff series at two games. ''Special player. Patience, play recognition, delays, just at a different level you don't see often,'' Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville said. Kane missed the final 12 games of the regular season after he hurt his left leg during a 4-0 victory over St.

Louis on March 19. He scored in his first game back in the series opener against the Blues, but Game 4 was by far his best performance since the injury. ''Every game feels like I've gotten a little bit better,'' he said. ''Whether it's timing or getting used to playing in the playoffs again, whatever it may be, just try to keep getting better and better and use these games to my advantage.'' Kane carried the puck down the left side in OT as teammates Ben Smith and Brandon Saad rushed toward the net, and beat Ryan Miller with a well-placed wrist shot for his 32nd career postseason goal. ''He's a dangerous player,'' Blues coach Ken Hitchcock said. ''He's dangerous off the rush. The most dangerous player in the league.'' Andrew Shaw and

Bryan Bickell also scored for defending Stanley Cup champion Chicago, which blew a 2-0 second-period lead. Jonathan Toews had two assists and Corey Crawford made 30 saves. Game 5 of the best-ofseven series is Friday night in St. Louis. Vladimir Tarasenko scored two goals for the Blues, and Miller fi nished with 30 stops. Maxim Lapierre also scored his first goal of the series. ''We knew it was going to be a tough battle and I think we're right where we want to be,'' Lapierre said. ''We won our two games at home. We came were and played good hockey. Now we've got to focus, regroup and play good hockey in St. Louis again.'' Tarasenko's fourth goal of the playoffs made it

3-2 at 12:26 of the third, but Bickell tipped Michal Rozsival's slap shot past Miller to tie it with 3:52 left in regulation. The Blues were without captain David Backes, who hasn't played since he absorbed a big hit from Blackhawks defenseman Brent Seabrook in the third period of St. Louis' 4-3 overtime victory Saturday. Seabrook served the second of his threegame suspension, giving Sheldon Brookbank his second straight start with top defenseman Duncan Keith. Blues forward Brenden Morrow also was scratched after Hitchcock said earlier in the day that he would miss the rest of the series. Morrow missed the final three games of the regular season with a foot injury. He played in Games 1 and 3 against the Blackhawks.

Playing in front of another loud sellout crowd, the Blackhawks used their maligned power play to grab the lead in the second. St. Louis defenseman Alex Pietrangelo had his stick knocked away by Toews, who fired a shot that went off Shaw's right skate and popped up in the air. Shaw then swiped it in with a backhand for his first goal of the postseason at 8:40. It was the Blackhawks' second power-play goal in 17 opportunities for the series. Kane got an assist on Shaw's score, and then scored one of his own to make it 2-0 at 16:09. Defenseman Johnny Oduya made a beautiful cross-ice pass to a streaking Kane, who shot it over Miller's glove for his second of the series. ''I just try to play off

instincts and have the feeling that you're going to make things happen instead of waiting around,'' Kane said. ''I'll try to keep that going.'' St. Louis appeared to be in big trouble before Kane committed a delay of game penalty with 1:16 left in the second, giving the Blues an opening. Just seven seconds into the resulting power play, Tarasenko beat a screened Crawford for his third goal of the series. It was the Blues' second power-play goal in 21 chances in the series. St. Louis then got another late-period goal when Lapierre's shot went off the right post and then Crawford's left shoulder before going into the net with 3.1 seconds to go. Five of the Blues' goals in the series have come in the fi nal two minutes of a period.

Suarez To Make Nationwide Debut At Richmond By Jenna Fryer AP Auto Racing Writer

Daniel Suarez has proven to be a quick learner in a race car, winning in the eighth race of last year's NASCAR's K&N Pro Series East Tour and finishing third in the final standings. He has raced out of the gates this season, with two wins and three top-five finishes in four starts. Now Suarez has parlayed that into a big-time ride. He will get his first career Nationwide Series start on Friday night at Richmond International Raceway with Joe Gibbs Racing, and Suarez will have to learn on the job. ''It's going to be a new experience for me - I've never been in a Nationwide car,'' Suarez said. ''But to be honest, I have a lot of confidence in myself and also in Joe Gibbs Racing. The first point and the most important point is to try to learn about everything and then be competitive. I love to be competitive in everything I drive, even video games.''

A 22-year-old from Monterrey, Mexico, Suarez came through the NASCAR Next program and is a current participant in Drive 4 Diversity. For now, he's got just this one race with JGR. But he's confident a good showing Friday night at Richmond could lead to more opportunities. ''For now I'm just focused to do well in this race,'' Suarez said. ''I'm pretty sure that after that race we are going to have something good for the second half of the year.'' It will be a busy weekend for Suarez, who races full-time in both the East Series and the NASCAR Mexico Toyota Series. Suarez will run a doubleheader on Friday night at Richmond, where the K&N East race is scheduled after the Nationwide event. Then it's back to Charlotte to catch a flight a Saturday flight to Mexico City to race at the Autodrome on Sunday. ''Is no easy challenge for me, this weekend. I really feel lucky to be in this position,'' Suarez

said. ''Not many drivers have the opportunity to do one race or two races or three races like me this weekend, in the same weekend. That's kind of cool for me. I think we can learn a lot about this situation. I think that's a pretty cool opportunity. I'm really looking forward to do something good this weekend.'' --JR MOTORSPORTSYOUTH: JR Motorsports has added another young driver to its stable in 20-year-old Austin Theriault. Theriault has been hired to drive three Nationwide Series for JRM in the No. 5 Chevrolet. He'll make his debut next month at Iowa Speedway, and also has races scheduled at New Hampshire in July and Kentucky in September. ''Our company is known for putting young talent in cars and giving them a shot on one of NASCAR's biggest stages, and that is what we are giving Austin with this threerace opportunity,'' said Kelley Earnhardt Miller, general man-

ager of JR Motorsports. ''This keeps our No. 5 car on the track, and it gives Austin the chance to show what he's got with a lot more eyeballs taking notice.'' JRM goes into Friday night's race at Richmond International Raceway coming off back-to-back victories with Chase Elliott. The 18-year-old won at Texas and Darlington before last weekend's off week. Theriault was the 2012 Maine Vintage Race Car Association's Driver of the Year. He made his NASCAR K&N Pro Series debut in 2012 after winning the ''Maine Young Guns.'' --SHORT TRACK SHOWDOWN: Nearly 50 drivers will compete in one of the biggest celebrity late model races of the year Thursday night in the Denny Hamlin Short Track Showdown. The event, which raises funds for the Denny Hamlin Foundation to support cystic fibrosis research and therapies, has in the past been held at Richmond

International Raceway and at Southside Speedway near Hamlin's hometown of Chesterfield, Va. This year it was moved to South Boston (Va.) Speedway, a track that helped launch Hamlin's career. He's not raced there since 2003. ''Moving the race to South Boston Speedway makes it a new challenge for the drivers and brings back a bit of NASCAR nostalgia for the fans and media,'' said Hamlin. ''Based on the interest and feedback I've heard, I expect the allstar lineup to be better than any we've had in our six-year history of the event.'' Open since 1957, South Boston Speedway has earned a reputation as the home of the best NASCAR-sanctioned short track racing in the country. The 2/5-mile, quad-oval has been the stomping ground for many of NASCAR's top racers. South Boston last hosted a national touring NASCAR race in 2003 when the Truck Series visited for a final time.

A Pe rsonal Injur y Law Fir m

ALERT - NO-FAULT BENEFITS UNDER ATTACK

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

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

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