Fifteenth year of Bemus Bay Pops celebrates past success, vision for the arts By Scott Wise Star Staﬀ Writer

This year marks a notable milestone for the Bemus Bay Pops. When the first performance hits the DFT Communications Floating Stage on June 24 at 2:30 p.m., it will mark fifteen years of successful, family-friendly entertainment for our region. Dan and Sue Dalpra, owners of the Italian Fisherman, is the coordinating effort behind the Pops. He and his team of planners started the 501(c)(3) organization with the goal of ‘bringing the arts to the people.’ Ultimately, the annual summer concert series began with a concerted endeavor to celebrate Labor Day, now one of the biggest events of the year for everyone in the county. “I was enjoying a CD release party I’d organized, at the [Italian Fisherman], for my good friend Steve Swanson,” said Dan, of the planning for that first year. “I saw how much everyone was enjoying themselves and looked at the flat roof of the building and thought, ‘how cool would it be to put a symphony orchestra up there and do a pops concert for free.’” As part of his desire to ‘bring the arts to the people,’ Dan’s heart was to allow members of the community to enjoy familiar music being played by world-class muscians. And he hit the nail right on the head. “Many people do not get the opportunity to experience something like

that,” said Dan. “I thought the young people just might become inspired. I knew that music and the arts is

the best way to bring a community together.” Putting that knowledge to the test,

the Dalpras organized the event. “Against all odds, we pulled to-

I want to create new opportunities for everyone, and most importantly show that all things are possible.” While he enjoys reminiscing about the past of the Pops and the tremendous opportunities it provides for the area, Dan is a visionary. Ultimately, his eye is on continuing to grow the Pops and provide notable entertainment to everyone

who wants it. “The future of the pops is to continue the dream and vision with growth,” said Dan. “We want to expand programming with new programs that enhance our community and nourish its future. The arts are more than entertainment- it’s our future.”

RELIGION

The Weekly Word The “Relevant” Church

Rev. Tim Stahlman Family Church of the Southern Tier

There is a movement among churches to make Christianity more “relevant” to our society. This movement is dangerous. Everywhere we

look we see churches that are adopting more of the world’s culture and bringing it into the church. Churches have to add laser lights, smoke machines, and strobes to attract new members. There is always a danger when man leans upon the arm of the flesh to accomplish the works of God. And what’s even worse is that the message is being compromised to make people feel more comfortable. This generation is not hearing messages about salvation, judgment, the Holy Spirit, tithing, and holiness. The “relevant” church is over stimulating man’s flesh and mind without feeding his spirit.

This generation is following demonic devices that would attempt to make God more like man. But here is the truth: Jesus did not come to make God more like man; He came to make man more like God. Man’s Creator cannot be more relevant. He is ever present upon their heart and conscience. Basically, this new age church is telling God, “You need a makeover; let us help you with that. Your power to save, heal, deliver, and to do the miraculous is not working. We know how to redeem your image.” This generation has the gall to redeem God? This new generation is very

rebellious. The young people have been inspired by godless universities and media to “redefine” the new era. They have been taught to throw away the teachings of their elders. Young people have not been parented correctly and now they don’t know how to submit and learn from the older generations. This generation is filled with people who are void of a solid work ethic. They would rather riot and protest than work. They are taught to lobby the government for handouts. Look at the “Occupy Wall Street” movement. It represents the driving force behind this generation that says, “Complain until you

get your way.” My parents and grandparents taught me, “God rewards hard work.” The spirit of this rebellious generation is trying to get into the church. There is a push to “redefine” God. Church leaders are being influenced by the younger generation to make “relevant” changes within the church. We shouldn’t try to learn from a generation who knows nothing about the Word of God or the move of the Holy Spirit. It is the older generations who should be teaching the younger. We are getting out of Biblical order. We are distracted. We need to go back and sit at the feet

of great people of God who spent much time in His presence. We need people who will remind us that it will be God’s power that will draw people to His church. We need people that will stand and preach with authority and then allow the Holy Spirit to work with us confirming His Word with signs following. Jesus didn’t change the world with laser lights and smoke machines. He changed the world with demonstrations of God’s Word, Spirit, and Love. Remember this: The more man puts on a show, the less God puts on a show.

Keeping the Faith

Dear Pastor, can the devil control the weather?

By Rev. Michael Lokietek Family Church of Chautauqua County

Last week we saw that God can control the weather, but not everything that happens in the weather is a direct act of God. We also saw that God set up the weather systems to operate on their own, but that these systems have been corrupted by man’s sin and is a reason for some natural disasters. Can the devil control the weather, too? Surprisingly…yes. If we examine the scriptures we can see that most instances of the weather being supernaturally altered are attributed to God. In the Book of Job, however, it implies that the devil manipulated the weather to cause great harm to God’s servant, Job. We read of two incidents within these passages of bad weather that came against Job and killed his flocks (Job 1:16) and his children (Job 1:19). The

Bible mentions lightning-like fire (Job 1:16) and indicates that a great tornado-like wind struck their house (Job 1:19). The Bible also says in Job 1:12 that these acts were within Satan’s ability. We also see in the New Testament that Jesus rebuked a storm while on a boat. If we question the origin of the storm, we see that it could possibly been influenced by the devil. While not proof, it is suggested because Jesus used the word “rebuke.” This word was often used by Jesus when He was confronting demonic activity or presences in people or their actions. While there may have been demonic actions behind these weather events, I do not believe that every bad storm is a supernatural act. As an example of this,

we can look at what happened to the Apostle Paul when he was sailing to Rome. In the Book of Acts, chapter 27, we read of a big storm that caused the ship to be wrecked. An angel came to tell Paul that God would protect him and the sailors. If the devil had sent the storm, I believe that Paul would have used the power given to him by God and rebuked the storm himself. It is more likely, therefore, that this particular storm was just the result of the natural forces set forth in weather systems. So, while it appears that there have been a few Biblical instances where Satan has influenced the weather, we can rest assured that in most situations, natural forces are the cause.

Senior citizens are valuable members in our community. Unfortunately, they can be pushed to the side of society. May, also known as “Senior Month” is a time to appreciate everything senior citizens do for our community. “We need to take time to commemorate their contributions to our community,” said Dr. Mary-Ann Spanos, the director of the Office of the Aging for Chautauqua County. “They are the number one people who are providing volunteer work force, and that’s so important. For many organizations we could not do what we do for others...[without the help of] the older adults [who] are the main volunteers for those things.” In addition, they bring wealth of knowledge and experience to our society. They are also the number one age group that votes for our elected officials. They have a major influence in our society, and we should celebrate the gifts they give to us. Senior Month, or Older Americans Month, originally came into being to commemorate the signing of the Older Americans Act in 1965. This legislation made it possible for Offices of the Aging and the Administration on Aging to come into being due to concerns of lack of community services for older adults. “In New York State, its [Offices of the Aging] county by county and we are called the County Offices of the Aging,” said Spanos. “What we provide for seniors is advocacy and services that help keep them independent in the community for as long as possible.” The mission of the Offices of the Aging is to act on the behalf of adults 60 and over. One of the major services the Offices for the Aging provides is helping older adults which Medicare plan to be on. “And we are always there to be the voice of the seniors,” said Spanos. “So, if they have problems or concerns, or if they feel they are being discriminated against because of their age, the Office of the Aging is the one who will be their voice, to stand up for them.” For more information on Office of the Aging, visit their website at www.aging.ny.gov.

Everyone Has A Story: Emory Holmquist Ross Mills Resident Finds A Passion in Preserving the Past

By Patricia Pihl Editor

swill There’s more than meets the d’s eye to a country crossroads e to and Ross Mills resident Emory e Holmquist has made it his passion to preserve the history of ow this small hamlet. h With no formal borders, Ross th Mills, a small area between Gerry and Falconer, has a ld much bigger story then its geographic size might suggest. Holmquist, whose ancesof tors lived in the area since ve. the1870’s, has used that legacy and his many relationships s in the community to build, bit-by-bit, a picture of how life use to be. His initial call for information was simply a public announcement. “I put a note in the Jamestown paper saying I wanted to put a history together of Ross Mills, asking if anybody had anything to let me know. He adds, “I got a few responses.” Beginning his research in the 1990s, by March of 2008, Holmquist was publishing a four-page newsletter, sent to 130 of his neighbors in the surrounding area, with a different feature of the Ross Mills history each month. The story of Ross Mills is in many ways a microcosm of what was happening across the country, as it used the natural resource of lumber- especially the area’s plentiful white pine- to harvest and transport down the Cassadaga and then Conewango rivers to Pittsburgh, and other cities and towns down the Allegheny to

the ner

Ohio, to feed the demands of a growing country. Benjamin Ross and a mill According to Holmquist, the Ross Mills history is among the earliest in county. Benjamin Ross, a resident of Warren was the first to settle the area after the land became available after a treaty was signed with the Indians in the late 1700’s. Holmquist said it took Ross and his helper, Isaac Young, 21 days to “break a road“ from Falconer to Ross Mills. “They had to cut trees down, there were ditches to fill in and culverts to put in.” Building a log cabin in 1816, Ross became a resident. “The sawmill, that’s how it got started.” Eventually another member of the Ross family would build a steam-powered mill. In time Holmquist says a train would run through the hamlet, on the railroad his grandfather helped build, and in 1875 a Post Oﬃce was opened. Like many hamlets of the time, it was originally set up around a small local school within walking distance for children – between 2 and 2 ½ miles from their homes. About Ross and Young, Holmquist said the pair once found an injured Indian who was left alone while his partner sought help. Ross took him in and cared for his wounds, which forged a friendship with the Indians and because of it “they always respected the Ross family.” The 190 acres owned by the Holquist family was part of original homestead on which Emory’s father was born in

Historian Emory Holmquist

1881. Holmquist worked on his family’s dairy farm as a young man and was later an employee for Jamestown Farm Supply and then Zahm and Matson Farm Supply in Falconer. His sons both reside in the area. Despite admitting to shortcomings in reading and writing, Holmquist forged on in his quest to preserve the past,

his reasoning simply, “The history of our family goes back quite a ways. But then I got to thinking there was a lot of history in the community. I thought some one ought to pick up and record some of this stuff.” “No one else is doing it so I might as well give it a try.” His one regret, “I wished I would have started when my dad was

alive.” He has been asked to speak on his subject to various groups and often corresponds with Norm Carlson from Fenton History Center on topics of local interest. Dozens of three-binder folders are filled with stories and pictures. One copied snapshot shows a local mailman “peddling mail” as Holmquist explains, by putting

skis on the back of his Model T Ford to deliver in the snow. Ross Mill’s Famous Other stories tell of former residents going on to find fame or fortune. Like Ross Mills native Ellen Anderson who worked for Francis Perkins, FDR’s Secretary of Labor, or Hugh Bedient, who became a starting pitcher for the Boston Red Sox in 1912 when the team won the World Series. And there’s Federick Peterson, who started from humble farm beginnings to become one of the area’s criminal attorneys during the civil war. Holmquist’s network in the community continues to help him find new historical discoveries. Recently he tracked a bible sold at a local garage sale as belonging to Marion Rossthe first girl, he says to reside in Ross Mills. The small community supports his work in many ways, fixing his printer, supplying paper or helping to email his newsletter, his granddaughter also assisting. Ask him about the local Grange, 4-H, old schoolhouses, the early railroad or his next endeavor- fallen barns, and he will speak with endless enthusiasm and knowledge about the subjects. Has he considered writing a book? Holmquist admits he had started an introduction but asks, where do you start and where do you stop? “I keep collecting information.” Ross Mills currently has 90 households, the largest in its history.

May: National Mental Health Awareness Month 2012

By Lucy Studd Contributing Writer

Editor’s Note: The Discovery Channel will feature a weeklong series of programming on various topics of mental health, beginning June 3. For more information go to health.discovery. com/tv/psych-week/episode-guide.

May is National Mental Health Awareness Month, which began in 1949 in an effort to raise awareness of mental health conditions and promote mental health wellness for all. “People with mental health problems are our neighbors. They are members of our congregations, members of our families; they are everywhere in this country. If we ignore their cries for help, we will be continuing to participate in the anguish from which those cries for help come. A problem of this magnitude will not go away, and because of our spiritual commitments, we are compelled to take action,” (Rosalynn Carter). Alan Alda (MASH star) said many years later he found out his mother suffered from schizophrenia. His autobiography opens with a line that goes something like this: “I was only six years old the first time I remember my mother stabbed my father.” He states many years later he educated himself about the illness

and learned that the hallucinations experienced by someone with schizophrenia come from the same part of the brain as nightmares do. He said he could wake up from his nightmares to live in reality but his mother never could. About 60 million adults in America will experience a mental disorder in any given year and only 24 million will seek help. For many, stigma and shame associated with brain disorders will keep them from seeking help. Those who do not recognize their illness due to anosognosia, or a condition in which a person who suffers disability seems unaware of or denies the existence of his or her disability, will continue to suffer. The mental health system as it stands has no provisions for this particular population. One in four Americans have experienced brain disorders in any given year and one-half of all Americans will have some form of brain dis-

orders at some time in their lives. The illness, like any other, can affect anyone. Advancements have been made and we know that mental illness is treatable and recovery is possible yet stigma and shame prevents many from seeking help. “Mental Health First Aid,” originated in Australia and prepares people to respond to others in a mental health crisis. The program is available in 47 states, over 50,000 people have taken the course, and about 2,000 have been trained as instructors and focuses on developing key skills for people to assist and respond to anyone who is developing a mental health problem or experiencing a mental health crisis. Locally, the two-day course is offered at Chautauqua Opportunities and prepares students to be more educated about brain disorders and issues by sharing information about mental illness, lessening stigma associated

with the illness, and encouraging empathy for those living with mental illness. Interested persons may call 716-410-1673 for more information. The most effective way to break the stigma and shame of brain disorders, mental illness, is through education and sharing what we know with others. May is “National Mental Health Awareness Month,” a time to break the stigma of mental illness. Serving as an advocate for the mentally ill, Lucy joined her local National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) Chapter in 2002, organizing numerous community education presentations concerning serious and persistent mental illness. Over the years, Lucy Studd has been a dedicated member of NAMI Chautauqua County where she served a Vice-President and President. Today, Lucy continues to serve as a member of NAMI Chautauqua County.

Burger & Spuds / Sweet Freedom Yogurt Company

Worth A Trip To The Mall Itself

By Patricia Pihl Editor

On an outing to the local mall, most expect to find the typical fare of franchise food. However, a pleasant surprise awaits shoppers stopping by Chautauqua Mall’s food court with two new restaurants that put a fresh spin on fast food. Burger & Spuds and Sweet Freedom Yogurt Company opened last April and offers the traditional favorites - like their fresh cut 1/3 burger- a customer favorite, as well as healthy alternatives such salads and fresh fruit toppings for its self-serve yogurt. “We really emphasize customer service; nothing is made ahead of time; everything is cooked fresh to order, we are not really fast food; we are fresh food, “ explains Jeff Bronner, who owns the restaurants with his wife, Mary. Bronner says his specialty on the burger and spud side, are fresh cut hamburgers, “The meat is never frozen. And the French fries are hand-cut and cooked in 100% peanut oil. It’s really a high quality burger at a quality price.” a The motivational-speaker returned restaurateur has resided ith in Chautauqua County for the nd last five years, coming from ort- California and a life of travel to ent settle in Chautauqua County and begin his new venture.

the quality of his product. “We’ve had at least thirty people tell us it’s the best burger they’ve ever had. It’s a big burger, its fresh and they love all the toppings they can put on it for free.” On days when they’ve offered ½ price burgers, he said they’ve sold 800 in two days. Bronner will also be adding a new chipotle, turkey and veggie burger to his menu. On the lighter side, Burgers & Spuds also features an Asian salad, Cobb chicken and a Caesar chicken salad. On a personal note, the Asian salad consist-

Your Retirement Is Deﬁnitely Worth Planning For You’ve heard it said before: Timing is everything. Especially when it comes to starting your Social Security benefits. More than 90% of working Americans are counting on Social Security to replace part of their current incomes when they retire, but the truth is the majority of those already drawing benefits receive permanently reduced amounts due to ill-informed timing decisions. In fact, many Americans fail to take into account the true impact of factors such as age, job status, taxes and marital status when deciding when to start receiving benefits. And that can prove to be a costly mistake. Don’t make the same mistakes other retirees make. It could mean leaving money on the table at a time when you’ll need it most. That’s why it’s important to develop a strategy to maximize your household Social Security benefits and enhance your overall retirement income plan. After all, a little planning now can go a long way – and in this case, we’re talking a lifetime.

Tuesday Club Spring Luncheon at The Sweet Spot Contributed Article Mayville Tuesday Club

The Mayville Tuesday Club’s annual spring luncheon will be held at The Sweet Spot June 5 at 12:30 p.m. at which time installation of officers will be held as well as committee officers named. Those attending are reminded to be sure to wear a hat – any hat. Darlene Wendell, owner/operator of Sweet Spot, introduced by Program Committee Chair Alice Paulus, opened the club’s summer roster by talking about her decision to invest in the eatery with her husband, Tim. Her future endeavor began when she was 14 years old and lived in Jamestown. “Whenever we drove through Mayville, I loved those two buildings,” she recalled. “Those two buildings” are located on the corner of Erie and Chautauqua streets across the street from the county Courthouse. Darlene’s Sweet Spot is “self-fulfilling” and also includes a bit of history for her. Of the larger building, she found that it was built in 1859 for $2400 and was to be the county clerk’s office. The second was built in 1894 for $800 and in 1905, both were deeded to the county. The two buildings have served a variety of uses through the years, and the Wendells are keeping them as close to the originals as pos-

sible. “We’re going to keep the marble floors and we won’t let anything happen to the buildings,” Darlene declared. As for the menu offered in The Sweet Shop, a favorite with most patrons is the variety of cheese cakes made by the Wendell’s’ two daughters. She also offers a variety of foods and soups. “We’re still trying to figure out who we are and what the community wants,” she said. “We’ll focus on what we do well.” One aspect of the shop is quite different from most - the staff is from the community and an agreed-upon rule that there will be no tipping. Instead, there is

a large jar on the counter for patrons to contribute to others. “Each month it goes to a different charity so we can help the people who need help,” Darlene said. A few of many have been the Canine Rescue, the Love Fund, Parkinson’s and others. Although husband Tim is busy serving as the town of Chautauqua Highway Superintendent, he also contributes his culinary skills to the business. “He likes to cook,” quipped Darlene. The Sweet Spot’s hours are Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. – 4 p.m.; Saturdays, 9 a.m. – 2 p.m.; closed Sunday. Should you wish to give a call, telephone 224-1021.

Longtime Campus and Community Scholarship Winners To Be Announced at Children’s Center director McLain honored All-County Concert Contributed Article SUNY Fredonia

The enduring contribution that Suzanne McLain made to a generation of children and their families during her quarter-century of leadership at the Campus and Community Children’s Center at SUNY Fredonia is now acknowledged on a handsome wall plaque. “She was a huge advocate for Early Childhood programming throughout the county,” said Judy Metzger, who succeeded McLain as the center’s director. The brass-andmetal plaque hangs outside

of Metzger’s oﬃce in the new Campus and Community Children’s Center, which opened in 2010. McLain was the center’s director from 1976 to 1999, when the facility was located in Thompson Hall. An active member of the Chautauqua County Association for the Education of Young Children, McLain secured national accreditation for the center, which opened in 1974. She was recognized as a “Children’s Champion” by the New York State Association for the Education of Young Children for her advocacy of developmentally ap-

propriate practices and quality affordable and accessible early care and education. In her leadership position on CCAEYC’s Public Policy Committee, McLain took on the additional role of vocal community activist, especially when it came to the impact of local, state and federal policies on children and families. She worked collaboratively with day care center directors, the Child Care Council, Success By 6 and other groups. Her career in early childhood service spanned 40 years. McLain and her husband, retired Sociology professor Ray McLain, now reside in Maine.

Many of the day’s performances will feature music from and pay tribute to the Grateful Dead. In fact, the fundraiser will conclude with a highflying set of songs performed by Ship of Fools – a Grateful Dead tribute band led by Jeff Erickson of 10,000 Maniacs along with Nate Arnone, Jay Peterson, Steve Davis and Matt Tilotson.

Scholars Look at Civil War Anew During Anniversary By Chris Carola Associated Press

Nearly 150 years after the last fusillade of the Civil War, historians, authors and museum curators are still finding new topics to explore as the nation commemorates the sesquicentennial of America’s bloodiest conflict. Even the long-accepted death toll of 620,000, cited by historians since 1900, is being reconsidered. In a study published late last year in Civil War History, Binghamton University history demographics professor J. David Hacker said the toll is actually closer to 750,000. ``That number just sat there - 620,000 -for a century,’’ said Lesley Gordon, a professor at the University of Akron and editor of the journal, a 57-yearold publication considered the pre-eminent publication in its field. Now, that figure ``doesn’t feel right anymore,’’ said Gordon. The buzz Hacker’s new estimate has created among academic circles comes in the second year of the nation’s Civil War sesquicentennial, a five-year period during which new ways to educate and inform America about its most devastating war are being presented in various forms, including fresh exhibits and living history events that highlight the role Hispanics, blacks and American Indians played

in the war. Among the published material are articles and books that look at guerrilla warfare in the border states, an overlooked battleground where civilian populations often fell victim to the fighting. Such work represents ``the new direction’’ some are taking in an effort to offer fresh Civil War topics for Americans to examine, Gordon said. ``They think about Lincoln, they think about Gettysburg, they think about Robert E. Lee,’’ Gordon said. ``They don’t think about this often brutal warfare going on in peoples’ backyards.’’ The National Parks Service is featuring some of the lesserknown stories of the Civil War in its commemoration plans. The parks agency has published a 41-page booklet on the role of the nation’s Latino communities in the war, with another planned from the Native American perspective. These stories, and those of escaped slaves and free-born blacks who fought for the Union, are an important part of the nation’s history, according to Bob Sutton, chief historian for the National Parks Service. He pointed to the recent 150th commemoration of the heroics of Robert Smalls, who commandeered a Confederate ammunition steamboat along with several other fellow slaves, picked up their families, sailed out of Charleston’s harbor and

surrendered the ship to the Union fleet blockading the South Carolina coast. ``The impact of this one incident went well beyond the incident itself,’’ said Sutton. `Ìt was a major catalyst for the Union to recognize the value to starting to raise black troops. Even that story was downplayed until relatively recently. The impact of 200,000 black soldiers and sailors in the Union war effort was a critical boost.’’ As for the death toll, many historians have fully embraced Hacker’s higher number, among them James McPherson, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of ``Battle Cry of Freedom.’’ `Ìt drives home even more forcefully the human cost of the Civil War, which was enormous,’’ said McPherson, professor emeritus in Princeton University’s history department. `Ànd it makes it more understandable why it took the South so long to recover.’’ Hacker, an expert in 19thcentury demographics, said he was studying the steady decline in United States birthrates when he kept bumping into the Civil War and its impact on the nation’s population growth in the 1800s. He decided to recalculate the war’s mortality rate for males, using recently digitized Census results from the two national population counts before the war and the two after. `Ìf there’s one figure you

could use to measure the war’s cost, this is the one statistic,’’ said Hacker, an associate professor in the university’s history department. `Ìt’s the death toll. Hey, let’s get that one right.’’ Hacker didn’t try to differentiate each side’s total deaths, and he doesn’t know how many of the additional 130,000 fatalities were Union and how many were Confederate. His new estimate includes men who died of disease in the years immediately after the war, and men who died of war wounds before the 1870 census. It also includes thousands of civilian men and irregulars who were casualties of widespread guerrilla warfare in Missouri, Kansas and other border states. Hacker’s work, unlike some other Civil War topics, is being hailed both in the North and in the South. `Ìt finally gives substance, with some really fine research, to what some people have been saying for years, that (620,000) was an undercount,’’ John Coski, historian at The Museum of the Confederacy in Richmond, Va. Hacker’s new estimate has its share of critics who question some of his methodology, but there’s been no groundswell of opposition from fellow historians, Gordon said. `Ì haven’t heard anybody say we want that (620,000) number back,’’ she said.

State Public Service Commission Paves the Way for Feeding Renewable Energy into the Jamestown BPU Grid

Contributed Article Jamestown BPU

The State of New York Department of Public Service (PSC) has paved the way for the Jamestown Board of Public Utilities (BPU) to execute a newly developed procedure for BPU customers to install and operate solar or wind electric generating equipment. The BPU solar and wind energy programs can now be finalized over the next several months to make net metering a reality in Jamestown. In mid-May, the PSC staff recommended approval of a joint application from the BPU and the Village of Rockville Center filed on February 16 to amend their electric tariff schedules (rate schedules), establishing procedures and rates to allow the municipal entities to support solar and wind through a net metering provision. A net meter (or bi-directional meter) differs from a standard electric meter in that it is not only capable of reading electricity being provided to the residence (normal) but also is capable of reading excess electricity that may be exported from a residence to the BPU distribution system. The net meter keeps track of the amount of excess energy produced at the location, the

amount of electricity fed to the customer from the utility and, finally, the meter provides a “net” number at the end of each month. Net metering is currently offered to customer-generators of investor owned utilities under the Public Service Law. The law does not apply in this respect to non-profit, municipal electric utilities such as Jamestown and Rockville Center. The proposed tariff filings are made by Municipalities on a voluntary basis to accommodate customers who choose to install small solar and wind generators. Customers who receive service under BPU Service Classification (SC) Nos. 1 and 2 and are interested in installing solar or wind generation equipment that has a rated capacity of no more than 25kW are eligible for the net metering program. Additionally, the generator output capacity is limited to 100% of the customer’s annual energy load for the most recent 12-month period. The program will be available to qualifying customers on a first-come, first-served basis, until the generating capacity for customer owned solar and wind electric generating equipment reaches a total of 500 kW. “We’re pleased that the Public Service Commission staff has approved our desire to make

the installation of solar and wind generation possible for our customers,” stated BPU General Manager David L. Leathers. “This represents another step forward in our ongoing commitment to drive change and to provide enhanced opportunities for our customers to utilize our diverse and varied program offerings.” Now that the BPU’s application to the PSC has been recommended for approval, the utility is finalizing the program procedures for customers to follow who want to participate in this process. For more information about the program, customers should contact BPU Energy Eﬃciency Coordinator Dan Reynolds by telephone at 6611646 or by e-mail at dreynolds@jamestownbpu.com.

Chamber to Host County Executive’s Breakfast The Chautauqua County Chamber of Commerce will hold its annual County Executive’s Breakfast on Friday, June 1 at the Chautauqua Golf Club.

Q&A What to do and not do about lawn spots

Q: Last summer, my lawn was covered in brown spots from my dog urinating on it. Are there supplements or a special diet I can give her so that doesn’t happen? — G.B., via Facebook A: Because female dogs deposit a lot of urine in one concentrated spot compared to male dogs, who usually leave small amounts of urine in a number of locations, rie this tends to be more a problem with females than males. ates, Unfortunately, supplements or medications that change the pH of e urine aren’t going to help, because s, that’s not what makes the grass A brown. Urine has a lot of nitrogen in it. In small, dilute amounts, nitrogen is a fertilizer. When it’s too concentrated, though, it will “burn” the grass.

There are only two main solutions. The first is to dilute the urine so it isn’t so concentrated, either in the bladder or on the lawn. Some suggestions, such as giving the dog tomato juice, are thought to work by increasing the sodium in the diet, stimulating thirst, and thus diluting the urine right in the bladder.

ome dogs, like some people, are high maintenance — they need lots and lots of attention. For many dogs, the attention they need comes in a category that most Americans say they don’t have time for already — exercise. All dogs need exercise. Even little ones. Even old ones. Even ones who really don’t seem to mind a sedentary lifestyle. They need exercise, just as you do, and for the same reasons.

Pet birds spend most if not all of their lives “behind bars,” which makes choosing a proper cage very important. D Nothing is more important to your bird than the cage you buy and where you put it. You want your bird to be safe and feel secure in his cage. He should also feel included as part of the family, even when he’s confined. A proper cage — well-designed, large, and made of safe and sturdy materials — and its proper placement can achieve all these goals. A good rule of thumb on size is to choose the next cage larger from what the labeling says. Look for smooth welds and no paint chipping. Your bird will be working as best he can to destroy his cage, so you don’t want him breaking off any toxic pieces. Although the kitchen may seem like an ideal place for your bird’s cage, it’s really not a good idea. The potential for your bird to breathe deadly fumes, such as those from overheated nonstick cookware, is too high in the kitchen. These products can kill your bird before you even realize there’s a problem. D About 80 percent of all cat owners provide a litter box for their pets, and about three-quarters of those litter boxes are filled with clumping litter, which studies have shown is favored by cats. Although behavior experts say that providing more than one litter box is key to preventing inappropriate elimination, only one cat owner in five offers the family cat an extra potty spot, according to the American Pet Products Association. — Mikkel Becker and Dr. Marty Becker

By Chris Winkler Star Sports Editor

If you’ve followed county baseball all year long, it felt like Fredonia and Dunkirk were more than capable of winning their respective class crown, setting up a rematch of last year’s Class B championship. When Olean beat undefeated Tonawanda in the semifinals, that notion became a possibility. Tuesday night, it became reality. Dunkirk kept Olean at bay behind the pitching of Alex Kubera and Fredonia mashed their way to another easy win over Roy-Hart to set up the showdown Thursday night at Gowanda High School. “That’s a 50/50 game,” Fredonia coach Vincent Gullo said. “We got our ace (Trent Thompson) on the mound and we’ll face [Kevin] Holmes, who we haven’t seen this year. “They’re a more disciplined team than us,” he continued. “But, we’re probably a better power hitting team than them, so we’ll see what happens.” Power hitting indeed. The Hillbillies (18-5) have made a living with their balanced lineup this year and Tuesday was no different despite facing Roy-Hart’s ace. But, this time around, Fredonia used their patience and fundamentals at the plate to put the Rams away. Plus, a little help from sophomore Weston Ley, who threw his best game of the year, a one-hitter with 12 strikeouts before leaving with

one out in the top of the seventh. “A lot of college scouts were here to watch Roy-Hart’s pitcher, but I think Weston stole the show,” Gullo said. “He kept the ball low and threw hard, we just got to tinker with him a little bit to use the lower part of body. But what a display from him today.” Ley was off to a shaky start when he hit the leadoff man with the very first pitch of the game. Before going 3-0 to the next batter, third baseman Brett Lutz made a diving one-handed grab to his right that likely would have gone down the line and scored the runner from first. Instead it went for a line-drive double play. “What a heck of play from Brett in the first inning,” Gullo said. “That could have saved a big inning. It took the sales out them and made us calm down. That’s the best defensive play I’ve seen this year. “We just got through saying that’s the play of the game, easily,” he continued. “Because that kept us in the game and it took us a few innings to get to their pitcher.” It took three innings to be exact. Andrew Riforgiat led off the third with a walk — one of seven on the night — before leadoff hitter Nick Hart attempted to sacrifice him to second. His perfectly placed bunt forced the pitcher off the mound in a hurry and even though he slipped, Hart was probably going to be safe either way. Then Trent Thompson did the same

thing. This time, the pitcher bobbled, “We had to get his pitch count up,” Gullo said. “We had to make sure he but it’s tough to say he would have worked out there. But my guys are had a chance to get Thompson from good hitters. They need to wait for where he picked up the ball. their pitch and hit it.” Fredonia took complete advantage. A wild pitch advanced all runners to But, Ley came back in the sixth by striking out the side and Fredonia give Fredonia a 1-0 lead. Then Zack Buckley hit a sacrifice fly that scored was in complete control. They added another. With two down, Ley walked two more in the eighth to go up 8-0 heading into the seventh. before Jude Gardner had an infield single that pushed it to 3-0.

He obliged by getting the last “Brett comes to play all the time,” two batters out.

Another game, another start on the mound for Thad Johnson. Another complete game one-hitter, the third time he’s done it this year, lowering his earned run average to 0.83. And, this time, the win pushed Frewsburg into the Class C Championship, where they’ll play the winner of Westfield and Catt/Little Valley (rained out Tuesday) at Diethrick Park Thursday night. “Thad was good tonight,” Frewsburg head coach Jay Grann said. “He didn’t have his best stuff tonight, wasn’t throwing as hard as he usually does, but he pitched to the defense and had a good night.” Perhaps good may be an understatement, but with Thad, perhaps the coach is right and it was only “good”. He allowed one hit — a single — walked two and didn’t allow a runner past second base. He was helped by his defense, namely catcher Connor Grey, who picked a runner off first and also threw a runner out attempting to steal. But, the Bears needed every bit of the shutout. They mustered just one run, a bases-loaded fielder’s choice that dribbled up the line from Bryce

Peterson. Bryce was called out on a close play at first for the second out of the inning. Frewsburg then left runners on second and third to close the inning. “Their pitcher threw a nice game,” Grann said. “Have to give him credit. We had some hits but just didn’t put enough of them together. But they’re a good team, their coach Mike Matz does a nice job with them.” The Frewsburg bats have been a little quiet as of late — relatively speaking at least. The 17-run output in the quarterfinals against Holland

has now been sandwiched between a total of three runs in two games. But Grann said he’s not too worried about it. Nevertheless, Frewsburg will have a chance to win their sixth straight Class C title Thursday and will certainly be the favorites going in considering their talent and experience. “It’s what we talk about every year,” Grann said referring to playing for a sectional title. “Once you get to states, you don’t really know what can happen, it’s such an unknown. But it’s always our goal to win the

sectional title.” Connor Grey will get the start for Frewsburg Thursday. Grey and Nick Mitchell combined to no-hit Fredonia’s powerful offense last week. Grey threw 5.2 innings and struck out 11 batters while allowing just one walk. His ERA sits at 1.76, but six of 10 earned runs came in one start against South County (Va.) down at the Mingo Bay Classic in South Carolina. “We’re excited to be going to the championship and to get another chance to win the title,” Grann said.

to 16 straight — Pat Scholla ripped a single through the middle. Small chink in the armor it appeared. But, then Kyle George ripped another single up the middle. When Ben McGraw sent another screamer into the outfield, plating a run, head coach Frank Jagoda had to head to the mound. Kubera managed to strike out Brad Painter to end any further danger, and practically squash any Olean comeback. The Dunkirk offense hasn’t exactly been crushing the ball this season, but had plenty of opportunities throughout the game — despite just five hits. A hit batsman and two walks had the bases loaded for Cieslewicz in the bottom of the second, but he struck out on a full count. Ryan Ruiz (check spelling) beat out an infield single in the third, but was caught stealing with Kevin Holmes up. Thus, Holmes’ sharp single into right field was nothing more than a two-out baserunner instead of a rally. They went quiet in the fourth before finally adding insur-

ance in the fifth. Max Schrantz was hit by a pitch for the second time before Burns got on base when his hot shot towards second took a wild hop over the second baseman. Then Torrance hit one hard for an RBI single, extending the Dunkirk lead to 2-0. Cieslewicz followed with a weak tapper back to the plate, but Burns sprinted home and beat the tag for Dunkirk’s third run, which seemed comfortable considering how well Kubera was dealing. Evan Ryan led off the seventh with a single down the left field line, but Olean couldn’t put anything together after. Kubera struck out Chance Anzivine before Nick Schmidt grounded into a fielder’s choice, moving Ryan to second. Kubera got Hennessy to hit a comebacker to the mound before softly tossing to Cieslewicz to finish the game. Fredonia and Dunkirk faced each other twice this year, with the home team winning each game by one run. Fredonia won 3-2 and Dunkirk won 6-5. Last year, the team’s also split the season series before Dunkirk won 10-3 in the championship.

Kings Place In History

Chris Winkler COMMENTARY

As we finally embark on the end of this long — and I antzmean looooooong — journey, what will it take for got the Los Angeles Kings to be considered one of the d league’s better teams in reman. cent memory? d I had a lot of free time week0. end, and without a heck of a lot going on in the sports ate, world, the upcoming Stanley nd Cup was one of the bigger topics on my mind. om- The Kings, as I’m sure you well know by considering how well documented it’s been, nth are 12-2 in the playoffs, 8-0 on the road and have been n’t as dominant as any team in . any sport as I can remember throughout an entire postmidt season. Their only two losses came when they were already up three games to none, on ssy the verge of a sweep. Eight of their 12 wins have been by g to more than one goal and only me. two of those wins — coincidentally, both closeout Game ed 5’s — were in overtime. ng It’s been easy. And it was - against the top three seeded rk teams in the Western Conm’s ference. Sure Phoenix should have been sixth, but they in didn’t have much trouble against two supposedly better teams in Chicago and Nashville. OK, OK, what am I getting at? Well, it’s a bit peculiar. I’ve found myself dumbfounded when trying to put together my own opinion about the Kings. If you recall, I don’t care too much for the current playoff system of the NHL and NBA. Sure, while a pair of 8-seeded teams won a first round series — and the Kings appear to be ready to win the whole thing — I’m not so happy eiwill ther team made the playoffs. um- It’s not a question of comoto) petition. Of course they can P: compete, this is pro sports. But, the question is do they belong? I’ve never underary stood why a league plays 82 t games, spanning more half nd of the calendar year, and day yet more than half of the teams in the league make the playoffs? Why play so many games? The But, in the case of the Kings, es I started to take another look at it. For those that is don’t follow the Los Angeles gis- hockey club religiously, and 9 who could blame you, they lf weren’t exactly world-beaters for much of the season, if at all. They started hot, winning five of their first seven, giving much credence to the The notion that this was going to es be a good team. is But they soon fell apart. By gis- mid-December, they were 16 14-14-4 and had lost eight lf of their last 11. Things sort of improved in January, but another long losing streak in February dropped Los Angeles to 27-22-12. 0, r 95 n10 ble, her. ng m-

Then they traded all-star defenseman Jack Johnson for Jeff Carter, a forward who had scored more than 30 goals in each of the last three seasons. The trade would help out a team dead last in the NHL in offense. Well it worked. The Kings were one of the hottest teams in the league down the stretch and obviously were able to carry that into the playoffs. Is the 82-game season ridiculously long? Sure, but because of its longevity, the Kings front office was able to notice a deficiency — which probably took a bit longer than it should have anyhow — correct it, and make the playoffs. So where do they stand? Are they an eighth-seeded team who got lucky to make the playoffs and happened to get hot at the right time? Or are they a seriously good team who battled hard luck and were simply missing a few pieces for much of the first four months of the season? If you’ve watched them play at all over the past few weeks, you’d probably go with the latter, and so do I. Much of postseason hockey will always be about riding the hot hand, but Jonathan Quick isn’t just some runof-mill goalie catching fire at a convenient time. Fact is, Quick is the best goalie on the planet and should win the Vezina Trophy. His 1.54 goals against average and .940 save percentage in the playoffs are ridiculous. But his 1.95, and .929 numbers in the regular season were superhuman. Some analysts actually argued Quick should have started over Ryan Miller in the 2010 Olympics, which of course turned out to be unwarranted, but Quick’s ascension to becoming a household name is actually a year or two too late. Anze Kopitar hasn’t been anything more than a point per game scorer in his young career, but some would argue his production hasn’t been MVP-like because of the Kings system and certainly not because of his abilities. He can be the best skater in the league. And while the Conn Smythe trophy will likely head to either of his teammates, Quick, or Dustin Brown, Kopitar is a worthy candidate, on the verge of much bigger things. Carter, Mike Richards and Justin Williams are all capable, underrated veterans and Drew Doughty might be the league’s best defenseman under 25 years old. I’m not saying the Kings are the New York Islanders of the early ’80s or the Edmonton Oilers of the late ’80s, but this isn’t a one-time thing, especially considering their age. So yes, I’m picking the Kings and I think they’re going to finish the Devils in five. That would mean Los Angeles would have only lost three games in the Stanley Cup playoffs. Since 1980, only the ’81 Islanders, ’84 Oilers and ’88 Oilers lost three or less en route to winning the Cup. Noticing a trend? Yes, we haven’t seen the last of the Kings quite yet.

Sweet victory at Coca-Cola 600 Kasey Kahne got his first win of the season, and his first since joining Hendrick Motorsports, when he drove away from the field at the end of Sunday’s Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway. For Kahne, it was a long-anticipated victory and an especially sweet one given his struggles at the start of the season. Looking back, Kahne’s turnaround actually began after he left Martinsville Speedway, where he started on the pole but blew an engine and finished 38th, leaving him 31st in points. Since then he’s finished no worse than eighth, and now with his third career win in the Coca-Cola 600, he’s up to 15th in the standings. “It felt really good to put the entire race together and have speed all night long,” Kahne said. “It feels good to get a win for Hendrick Motorsports. It’s something I’ve been looking forward to, for a year and a half, to drive for Hendrick Motorsports, to be teammates with Jimmie [Johnson], Dale [Earnhardt Jr.] and Jeff [Gordon]. To put it all together and get the win, it feels good.”

Scion of NASCAR’s first family wants to be just another driver

ost up-and-coming young race drivers want people to know all about them, thinking the knowledge will further their career. But Ben Kennedy just wants to be one of the faces in the lineup. But Kennedy’s situation is unique, and he can’t be blamed for wanting to be looked at as just another racer. His mother is Lesa Kennedy, the chairwoman of International Speedway Corp. and the vice chair and executive vice president of NASCAR. Ben’s late great-grandfather is NASCAR founder Bill France Sr. Most of the time when Kennedy, a 20-yearold University of Florida student, is driving his Late Model or competing on the NASCAR K&N Pro Series, the only time it’s apparent that he’s a part of NASCAR’s first family is when his mother or grandmother show up to watch him race, which is pretty often these days. That puts Lesa Kennedy in a far different position at the track than the one in which she usually finds herself. When Ben’s racing, she’s more Mom and less NASCAR executive. “I think it initially scared her a little bit,” Ben Kennedy said with a chuckle. “But she’s warming up to it a little bit. She’s starting to become a fan and enjoys coming to the races and stuff.” Kennedy said he’s relieved that his connections to the people who control NASCAR haven’t drawn a lot of attention. “I’m glad they don’t really shine any light on that,” he said. “My goal is to blend in with everybody out there and not stand out too much.” So far there’s been little evidence of Kennedy receiving any special favors. In fact,

the opposite might be true. In a recent race at Gresham Motorsports Park in Jefferson, Ga., Kennedy was leading late in the feature event when he was blackflagged for jumping the restart. He was sent to the rear of the pack but bounced back for a top-five finish. “It was very frustrating and unfortunate the way it happened,” he said. “But it was a part of racing. “I definitely respect their call and everything that went with it. I still ended up with a top five, so it wasn’t a horrible night.” Kennedy’s had many other rewarding nights since he decided at a relatively late age to give race driving a try. He was encouraged by NASCAR team owner Eddie Wood, who told him how much fun he and his own son Jon had racing together. Veteran crew chief and team manager Robbie Loomis set up his first drive in a competitive go-kart, and NASCAR driver Mark Martin helped steer his career in his early days of competing on the short tracks of Florida, where he won a championship in the Pro-Truck class at Orlando Speedworld and New Smyrna Speedway as well as a Super Late Model championship at Orlando. He was the 2010 Rookie of the Year in the Bright House Challenge Series and was named the SRP Pistons Sportsman of the Year. Kennedy said his career has taken giant strides in the past two years as he’s ventured away from his home base in Florida and raced at tracks across the nation. His best finish in the K&N Series came in the circuit’s first visit to historic Bowman Gray Stadium in Winston-Salem, N.C., where he finished third.

This year he’s racing a car prepared by Bill Elliott’s race team in Dawsonville, Ga., and is getting career guidance from Elliott. His crew chief is Mike Fritz, who recently worked with Ricky Carmichael in NASCAR’s Camping World Truck Series. “Bill’s been a great help,” Kennedy said. “He’s a very nice person, and he has a ton of experience. He’s been around the sport forever. He has a great crew and a great facility in Dawsonville. He’s a great all-around resource for us.” Racing at different tracks is making a difference as well. “I’ve probably learned more in the last year than I have in the rest of my racing career, just from traveling,” Kennedy said. “At the beginning of last year, I’d only been to four tracks. At the end of last year I’d been to 20 something. That traveling experience will pay off.” Like most of his peers, Kennedy would like to see his career take him to the top levels of NASCAR. “My long-term goal is to get to the Sprint Cup Series one day,” he said. “But I’m going to take it one step at a time and see where it goes each year, whether it’s trucks or Nationwide [Series] or wherever it goes from here. “Hopefully I’ll reach my ultimate goal.” But if driving doesn’t work out, there’s still the possibility of a key position in the family company. “I’ve thought about it,” he said. “If it comes, it’ll come. If not, I’ll stick to this end of it. I’ve definitely considered it many times. I’ve been around the business side all of my life, but now I’m really enjoying the competitive side.”

Gordon: Despite death, motorsports can be safe for kids The recent death of a 12-year-old driver at Auburndale Speedway in Florida has ignited debate over the wisdom of allowing the very young to compete in motorsports. According to published reports, Tyler Morr was competing in the Auburndale Kid’s Club, a series that races at the little, quarter-mile paved oval alongside Modifieds and Street Stocks. The cars are fourcylinder, front-wheel-drive cars, and drivers can be as young as five if an adult rides in the passenger seat. Tyler was driving by himself and wearing a firesuit and closed-face helmet when he and another 12year-old collided and crashed into a wall at less than 50 miles per hour. Jeff Gordon, who started racing at age five, said that while he didn’t know all the details, it appears to him that Morr’s death was just an accident and shouldn’t be taken as more than that. “I had friends that lost their lives when I was racing Quarter Midgets,” he said. “It rarely happened, but it did happen. Just like in any other sport, those accidents can happen. “We constantly evolve with technology and making things safer … I wouldn’t think twice about putting my kids in a race car if I know what kind of car it is, and I know its sanc-

(NASCAR photo) tioning body that’s organizing the events and the race tracks, and doing everything I can to make sure that they’re in a good environment as well as a safe one.” Gordon said he doesn’t believe that racing is any less safe than other sports that kids play. “I think of football, and I was actually talking to some football players at a golf tournament the other day about these head injuries and what’s going on with [the] NFL right now with the concussions,” he said. “In our sport, you’ll get some of that from time to time, but we’ve

improved it so much over time. But it’s always tragic when it’s somebody young who has his whole life ahead of him.” Gordon said that early in his career, he saw a young friend killed at the track. “Those accidents happened like what happened to a friend of mine; a kid named Jimmy Gerardo, and I’ll never forget that day,” he said. “I was in the race, and I’m not sure what happened, but he went straight into the wall and hit a 4-by-4 post and broke his neck; and kind of the same kind of injuries we’ve seen in this sport. “That was my first experience of it. I didn’t quite grasp and understand it. But what I did know is that it was an accident, and it was one that we could learn from on how to build the fences and how to build the cars. We were a long ways from HANS devices and things like that back then, so I think it was my first indication of that there are risks involved.” But he said the tragedy didn’t affect his desire to race. “It didn’t slow me down at all,” he said. “My heart really went out to his family and the fact that my friend wasn’t going to be there to race with or to hang out and play with when we weren’t on the track.”

Ryan Newman should have as good an idea as anyone about how this weekend’s race at Dover International Speedway will play out. He was one of the drivers who participated in a Goodyear tire test that helped decide which tire compound will be used this week. The tire compound is a big factor in how tires wear throughout the race, and Newman said during his media appearance at Charlotte last week that the tires at the test didn’t seem to wear and lose speed after being run for numerous laps. He said the racing is generally better when tires wear over the course of a green-flag run, especially on concrete tracks such as Bristol Motor Speedway and Dover. “Hopefully, the cars will fall off a little bit more, and we will have to rely on the driver pedaling the car and things like that, which has always given us a better opportunity at great racing,” he said. “We have seen that in the past at a place like Bristol, which to me is just a smaller version of Dover.” Newman also addressed his reputation for being one of the toughest drivers to pass – a description he didn’t deny. “Starting going back to Quarter Midgets, and then especially in the stock cars, I was always taught to race hard,” he said. “I always had fast-enough race cars that I never had to give. I could always take. And that came back to haunt me, I guess, for a few years there, because I was the one getting turned around because I wasn’t giving it up; and rightfully so, probably, because I didn’t know and didn’t get taught that. “So, I’m trying to be better at the give-andtake thing.”

Tommy Wickham Wins Valone Ford Patriot Sprint A-Main By Glenn Slocum Contributing Writer

BUSTY, NY — Valone Ford sponsored the only appearance of the season for the Patriot Sprint Group. Glenn Styres from Ohsweken Ontario won the Sprint Dash and a light rain started as the B-Main got underway. Dave Wickham was the B-Main winner. When it was time for the Sprint A-Main, the rain picked up forcing a delay while the sprints ran the track surface into racing condition. Tommy Wickham and Jared Zimbardi were on the front row for the race and Wickham was the first around as the rain subsided. An incident caused by Clint Ide on the exit of turn two with three laps complete brought out the first and only yellow of the race. Wickham, Steve Collins and Zimbardi were the top three for the restart. Don Adamczyk joined the top three sending Zimbardi back a spot on the restart. Adamczyk pressed Collins for the runner up spot as Wickham slowly extended his lead. On lap eleven Adamczyk made the move to second as Wickham started negotiating lap traﬃc. Ten Car lengths separated the leaders with ten laps remaining in the event. With five to go Wickham was still in control with car strung completely around the speedway he was constantly in lap traﬃc. Wickham finished the race out in front for his first career Patriot Sprint win. Dustin Eckman and Jake Finnerty were on the front row for the Limited Late feature with Mike Moon and Steve Moynihan in row two. Eckman was the first into turn one and led by two car lengths at the end of lap one. Finnerty was second with Ryan Scott third followed by Moon and Moynihan. Finnerty had problems with three laps complete with a spin in turn two. Scott moved up to second behind Eckman for the restart. Three cars tangled on the restart, Dennis Asel, Steve Kania and Bob Vogt Jr. Ryan Scott was the next leader to have problems with a turn one spin with five laps down. Leader Eckman was now being chased by Moynihan, Stan Davis Jr., Chris Ottaway and Tyler Green. Moynihan could only close within three or four car lengths of Eckman during the closing laps. Eckman won his first of the season. Scott Gurdak made the move of the race in the first turn of the Super Late Model feature, passing the Ryan Scott and Doug Eck front row for the

lead, which he never relinquished. Dutch Davies and Chad Valone put on a show in the closing laps trying to catch Gurdak. Gurdak made the move on the start passing Ryan Scott and Doug Eck for the lead on Lap 1. Bump Hedman case from sixth for the runner up spot with Doug Eck third and Ron Maloy fourth. With eight laps complete Gurdak had nearly a straight away lead. Dutch Davies came from eighth to challenge Eck for the third taking the spot on Lap 12. Chad Valone was the next to come up and challenge Eck. Valone continues his charge closing with Davies and Hedman as they fought for second. Gurdak had caught the back markers with ten laps to go. Davies was now second with Valone in tow as they tried to run down Gurdak. Gurdak took the white then the checkers with a seven-car length lead over Davies with Valone a close third.

Justin Tatlow won the Crate Late feature in a green to checkers run with Bob Dorman second throughout the race. Tatlow used his front row starting spot to become the early feature leader. Dorman was second with veteran John Haggerty third. Kyle Scott retired to the infield just before the crossed flags indicating half way. Tatlow was into lap traﬃc as the race stayed green. A spin by Cody Mason brought out the yellow allowing the field to close with Tatlow and Dorman. Haggerty was still third with Zack Carley fourth and Brad Mesler fourth. As the racers stacked into turn three on the restart Bryce Davis was tagged causing caution two. Darren Peters moved into the fray at the front pressing Matt Harvey for third just before the white flew. Tatlow hung on for the win his first of the season. John Woodward Jr. used an early race caution to best the two leaders

Lake Erie Speedway Kicks-Off Season Despite Rain-Shortened Night

Contributed Article Lake Erie Speedway

NORTH EAST, Pa. — Lake Erie Speedway proudly kicked off the 2012 Season Fueled By Kwik Fill with 5,894 fans in attendance. The night was scheduled to showcase the six weekly race divisions including a special Plyler Overhead Door Late Model 100 featuring the TBRA series, but Mother Nature brought in rain that shortened the race night. The Bandoleros, Street Stocks, Jensens Target Collision Compacts, and about half the field of Legends were able to get their races in before the rain cancelled the remainder of the night. At the start of the INEX Bandolero divison race, car No. 32 driven by Wesley McCray began the race strong, closely followed by car No. 97, Darrin Waldron, and car No. 9, Donald Buell. The first lap of the night was shortly postponed due to a caution, with car No. 24, Matt Mead, and No. 29, Daniel Buell, involved. The caution ended with car No. 24 and car No. 29 spending the rest of the race in the infield. Once the green flag dropped again, car No. 32 was once again leading

the pack. Halfway through lap 7, car No. 9 spun out bringing out the second caution of the race. At the start of lap 8, Car No. 32 and No. 97 raced neck and neck until car No. 97 was black flagged for being above the first set of white lines, an illegal action for Bandolero drivers. Car No. 9 was declared the feature winner, with Wesley McCray in car No. 32 in second place, and in third place was car No. 97, Darrin Waldron who still finished ahead of the other competitors based on completed laps. The Jensens Target Collision Compacts division took to the track for the second race of the night. Car No. 19 driven by Brian Carlson and car No. 1, Steph Akerly, crossed the starting line neck and neck. With the second lap underway car No. 1 was in the lead, followed by Garret Rammelt in car No. 25, car No. 19, and Jim Tobin in car No. 14 close behind. Car No. 88, Dan Bittenger, pulled into third place on lap 6. Rammelt took the lead on lap 7 and pulled to an even stronger lead throughout laps 8-11. Lap 9 brought car No. 1 into third place and car No. 88 into second place. A caution on lap

11 due to a loose tire on car No. 8, Robert Collins, resulted in the car being taken off the track. A single file restart to get the 11th lap back under way allowed car No. 25 to continue in first place. Bittenger in car No. 88 was close behind car Rammelt at the start of lap 13 but was not able to pass Rammelt, who was crowned the winner of the Jensens Target Collision Compact division feature race. In second place was No. 88, Dan Bittenger, and third place went to No. 1, Steph Akerly. 8:15 pm kicked off the start of the NASCAR Street Stocks race. With the green flag waved, car No. 19 driven by Kaity Kicinski came out of the gates strong with driver John Denny in car No. 20, Leslie Bohrer in car No. 01, and David Krawczyk in car No. 11k close behind. The 11k passed car No. 20 and No. 19 in lap 4 and held a strong lead throughout the remainder of the race. There was one caution for debris on the track in lap 16, but the No. 11k continued his domination. The No. 11k of David Krawczyk finished in first place, followed by the No. 71, Rich Miller, in second place, and car No. 20, John Denny in third place.

for the top spot in the E-Mod feature for his first ever win at Stateline. It was twin 55’s on the end of lap one for the feature with Chuck Frye and Butch Southwell in a heated contest the number one spot. A lap five spin by Karl Born caused the first yellow and Kyle Bedell pulled into the pit during the yellow. Frye led Southwell to the green and Woodward Jr. used the outside to pass both Frye and Southwell to become the new leader. Born and Matt Sampson tangled on the restart and both retired to the pits with flats. Seven laps were complete with Woodward out front followed by Frye and Southwell. Woodward was able to out distance Frye and Southwell leading by nearly a straightaway. A yellow with two to go allowed the field to close with Woodward but it did no good as Woodward easily moved away from the pack getting his career first win at Stateline.

Tim Card broke the Dan Nocero streak in the Super Sportsman to get his first of the season and his career. Card was the early leader with point leader Dan Nocero Jr. second. A three-car incident collected Mike Genco and Clint Haskins. Card, Nocero and Jake Eller were the restart leaders. At the half way point Nocero looked to be attached to Card’s rear bumper. Ben Burgess charged into third then lost the handle in turn one collecting Eller with five laps remaining. One more lap was completed before Burgess stopped high in turn four for yellow number three. Eller fought back from his earlier troubles to pass Nocero for second then took the lead from Card on the back stretch but raced too hard into turn three allowing Card back by for the win. It looked like Gary Fisher was going to end Chris Withers perfect season but a late race restart and a final lap pass by Withers gave him his fourth in a row allowing him to remain the only Street Stock winner of the season. Fisher and Nelson led the feature to their initial green. Four cars were part of a first lap incident including Guy Adams, Victor Earle, Elaine Best and Tony Fonzo. A complete restart saw Fisher out in front with Brian Crandall second and Todd Bacon third. Two laps were complete then Jerry Fish stopped exiting the track for the second caution of the event. Kevin Golden passed Bacon for third on the restart then Chris Withers pushed Bacon back to fifth. Withers continued to move up passing Golden two laps later then Crandall to challenge for the top spot. Sam Conti caused yellow three with eight laps down. Fisher, Withers and Crandall were the leaders. Crandall moved alongside Fisher during the restart lap but could not complete the pass then Withers tried the same move two laps latter but Fisher was still too strong on the bottom. As the white was coming out Jason Bagdley spun in front of the flagman for caution four. On the restart Conti spun on the restart for caution five. Right after the leaders took the white Kyle Weilacher and Richard Wojtowicz tangled on the front straight for caution six.

By R.B. Fallstrom Associated Press

ST. LOUIS (AP) _ Another Philadelphia Phillies star is ailing. Two-time Cy Young winner Roy Halladay gave up a grand slam to Yadier Molina in an abbreviated two-inning start before leaving with shoulder soreness in an 8-3 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday. Halladay pitched with the injury the last few innings of his last start, and cutting back on throwing between outings didn't help. “Worried? Yeah, definitely, I'm concerned,'' manager Charlie Manuel said. “Pitching is one of the big things on our club and when guys miss a turn, it concerns me.'' The Phillies, already without stars Ryan Howard and Chase Utley all year, missed a chance for their first four-game sweep in St. Louis in 99 years. Manuel declined to lay out a scenario if Halladay can't make his next start or worse, saying only: “If we have to fill a rotation spot, we'll get somebody and fill it. The games will go on.'' Asked about his level of concern, pitching coach Rich Dubee said: “I don't know. I'm

not a doctor.'' Dubee told Halladay (4-5) that his day was done in the dugout after chatting with the pitcher. “I know he's had a cranky shoulder and he hasn't looked right, and didn't look right today,'' Dubee said. “And I knew he wasn't going to come out of the game, so I basically said `That's enough.''' Halladay said the soreness comes from the back of the shoulder. He anticipates an examination on Tuesday. “I'm hoping it's something we can just calm down quickly and get back out there,'' the pitcher said. “It's not the point where I'm in agony throwing pitches.'' Adam Wainwright (4-5) allowed a run on seven hits in six innings, thriving in 90-degree heat for his second straight dominant outing. Molina left due to dehydration during an at-bat in the fifth. “I was seeing the pitcher like three pitchers at the same time,'' Molina said. “So that wasn't a good feeling. I was kind of dizzy. It's the first time it happened to me and I'm glad I said something.'' All of the Cardinals' runs came from homers. Carlos

MIAMI (AP) — Chris Bosh is taking steps toward returning to the Miami lineup, though it remains unclear when the Heat will actually see their All-Star forward in uniform again. Bosh, who has been sidelined since straining a lower abdominal muscle in Game 1 of Miami's second-round series against Indiana, did what the Heat called a ''very light'' on-court workout Sunday. Heat coach Erik Spoelstra categorized the session as part of the progression of Bosh's rehab program and continued to say there's no target date for his return. ''I wouldn't over-read into his workout yesterday,'' Spoelstra said Monday. ''We'll continue to reevaluate him every day. He'll continue to do his rehab. When he starts legitimate basketball work, I'll pay attention a little bit more.'' Miami hosts Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals against the Boston Celtics on Monday night. For now, the Celtics are more concerned with figuring out ways to deal with LeBron James and Dwyane Wade. Still, Bosh is in the Celtics' scouting report. And if he's back at any point in the series, Boston expects to be ready. ''We're prepared to see him,'' Celtics forward Paul Pierce said. ''If he's able to come back, I mean, that's great. You never wish any injury amongst your NBA brothers. You expect the best of them.

Miami Heat forward Chris Bosh has been out since Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals. The Heat are 4-2 without him, including a 93-79 win Monday night over the Boston Celtics to open the Eastern Conference Final. (AP Photo)

And as a competitor, I don't mind taking on the opponent team's best. It brings out the best in you, I think, and it helps prepare you for championship runs.'' Bosh averaged 15 points and 7.2 rebounds in Miami's first-round series win over the New York Knicks. He had 13 points and five rebounds in the first half of Game 1 against Indiana on May 13, getting hurt just before intermission when he stretched out for a dunk and strained the muscle. An MRI exam a day later confirmed the original diagnosis of a strain. ''His uniform is in his locker and we'll be ready for him to go,'' James said. ''Other than that, we're playing as if he's not in uniform. It's allowing

us to focus on the guys that are in uniform, and it's putting less pressure on him to try to rush and get back. It's a sensitive injury. So whenever he's ready, he'll be in uniform.'' Indiana coach Frank Vogel said that Bosh's absence helped Miami — in the sense that it meant more shots for Wade and James, who combined to average 65.7 points in the final three games of the Pacers series. Celtics coach Doc Rivers shared a similar sentiment Monday. ''Obviously Bosh makes them better,'' Rivers said. ''But in some ways, you can say they're more dangerous because now those 15 shots that Bosh had, they're going

to Wade and LeBron. So in some ways, they have the ball more. They're more aggressive. It almost activated them to be more aggressive, which puts a lot of stress on your defense.'' Bosh averaged 12.8 points and 10.2 rebounds for Miami against the Celtics in last year's East semifinals, which the Heat won in five games. ''They're more Wade- and LeBron-dominant without Bosh,'' Celtics guard Keyon Dooling said. ''Those guys have really picked up slack. So in that aspect, they're a little bit different. In the rebound category, obviously they miss him. His ability to make shots off of Dwyane's and LeBron's pick-and-rolls and stuff is something that's missed.''

Loyola Routs In-state Rival Maryland To Claim NCAA Title Contributed Article Associated Press

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Unranked at the beginning of the season, Loyola of Maryland is No. 1 at the end. Loyola beat the University of Maryland 9-3 Monday to win the NCAA men's lacrosse national championship, three months after the Greyhounds opened the season miffed at being overlooked in preseason polls. "We knew what we had in our locker room through the whole year. It's just been an unbelievable journey," said Eric Lusby, who scored four goals and set an NCAA record with 17 in the tournament.

won the majority of the matchups. We were having a tough time getting leverage," Maryland coach John Tillman said. Chris Layne added three assists and Jack Runkel finished with six saves for the Greyhounds, whose only loss this season was to Johns Hopkins in overtime April 28. When the game ended, Loyola's players rushed the field, leaving a trail of sticks, helmets and gloves for a celebratory pileup. The players then ran across the field and a few leaped into the stands to join the fans before lining up and shaking hands with the Maryland players. The two Maryland schools are separated by about 30 miles, but it was only their 21st meeting and first since the Terrapins' 19-8 victory in the 1998 national semifinals. The Greyhounds scored seven straight goals after falling

behind 3-2. The last three came from Lusby, who had five goals in the Greyhounds' 7-5 win over Notre Dame in the semifinals Saturday. "It's kind of hard to explain. I just got hot at the right time. I knew going into the tournament my shot was a little off. I kept missing the cage, so I knew I just wanted to shoot for net. I just have to give credit to all the other guys on the offense," Lusby said. "When I had the opportunity to shoot and score I just wanted to make sure I made it count." Lusby broke the tournament record of 16 goals shared by Matt Ward of Virginia (2006) and Zack Greer (2007) of Duke. The Greyhounds scored three straight times in the second quarter for a 5-3 lead at halftime. Loyola's Justin Ward scored the only goal of the third quarter. Then the Greyhounds pulled

away with three more in the fourth. Lusby added his second goal 3:48 into the fourth quarter. He tied the tournament record with 5:07 left and broke it with the final goal of the game, scoring with 3:45 to go. "I think they did a great job on the defensive end making us a little uncomfortable," Maryland's Drew Snider said. Maryland opened the scoring on defenseman Jesse Bernhardt's goal with 9:36 left in the first quarter. The Terps went up 3-2 early in the second when Kevin Cooper scored from in front, but the Greyhounds scored the next seven. Bernhardt was knocked out of the game in a scary collision early in the first quarter. He managed to walk off the field, but Tillman said he likely has a concussion.

NEWARK, New Jersey (AP) — With Martin Brodeur nearing his 40th birthday and entering the final year of his contract, this NHL season at first had the look of a last hurrah for the New Jersey Devils' goalie great.

right edge of the crease. It's been a lot of fun this season, playing on a really good team, and I'm enjoying this ride,'' Brodeur said. “And I know what I can do, try to compete as hard as I can every night and try to give these guys a chance to win hockey games. And they've been scoring a lot of goals for me in the playoffs so far, and it's been great.'' Brodeur was the difference in the Devils' wins in Games 5 and 6, when the Rangers controlled most of the play in the final two periods. “He was outstanding, all playoffs,'' Devils forward David Clarkson said. “He kept us in games, stood on his head. It's amazing to see what he's doing right now and our bench just feeds off it.''

Lamoriello scoffed when asked on Saturday about Brodeur performing so well at 40. He pointed out that some 30-year-old people act like they are 50, and vice versa. He said the same holds true for athletes, adding athleticism and genetics also play a part. “(Brodeur) is just a real thoroughbred athlete,'' Lamoriello said. “He loves the game. His mind is 100 percent there and he feels good.'' Brodeur refused to compare this Devils team to the ones that won Cups in 1995, 2000 and `03, or to the one that lost the Cup in seven games to Colorado in 2001. “Every team writes its own story,'' the Montreal native said. “I was fortunate to be part of great teams that had success, and I was part

of great teams that didn't have success. ... It's not just a one-man show out there. A lot of guys are contributing, and there's a good feeling. But until you finish out these playoffs, we'll see then.'' Up next will be the Kings. They have posted a 12-2 record in beating Vancouver, St. Louis and Phoenix, the top three seeds in the Western Conference. The Devils were given Saturday and Sunday off while the coaches worked on their game plan. “They have played well at home and away and we just have to take a step back,'' Lamoriello said. “We haven't seen much of them except the games on TV.''

LA Kings Rested For Cup Final Meeting With Devils By Greg Beachem Associated Press

EL SEGUNDO, Calif. (AP) — Justin Williams remembers every game of the Carolina Hurricanes' 25-game grind through the 2006 playoffs. He knows all about the blood, sweat and exhaustion necessary to raise the Stanley Cup. That's why he realizes the NHL playoffs aren't usually as easy as the Los Angeles Kings have made them look so far. Although Williams and his teammates have prepared for lengthy series in every round of the postseason, but they haven't even had to play a Game 6 yet. “If you told anybody, let alone us in the dresson- ing room, that we'd have a place in the finals as an eight seed, I would have only told you that you were crazy if you said it took 14 games,'' he Williams said. “But we're here for a reason,'' he added. “We've oal battled our tails off here the whole season, and things have come together here. We go into nt every series thinking it's going to be seven (games). It's just so far, they haven't worked out l of that way.'' 45 Los Angeles went on a 12-2 rampage through the Western Conference playoffs, earning a ob date with the New Jersey Devils in the Stanley ing Cup final. Game 1 is Wednesday in Newark. The Kings' surge is a novel experience for everybody, including Williams and two teammates who faced him in the 2006 Cup final. r-

Williams scored the final goal of Game 7 for the Carolina Hurricanes, beating Jarret Stoll, Matt Greene and the rest of the Edmonton Oilers — the only eighth seed to make the final round before Los Angeles. Stoll remembers the shock and elation of that 24-game run by the unheralded Oilers, only to be crushed by a loss in Game 7. “It was a great ride, but the ending leaves a sour

taste if you don't win,'' said Stoll, who scored in overtime last month in the Kings' seriesending win over President's Trophy-winning Vancouver. “When you're going through it, you realize that you don't know if you'll ever get that opportunity again. Some guys play their whole careers and don't get the chance to do what we're doing now, so I'm definitely grateful to be there again.''

Let’s Join Efforts to Help the

Greene also picked up that perspective as a 22-year-old Oilers rookie, playing in 18 postseason games during their run. Greene realizes those Oilers and the current Kings don't share much except their seed: Edmonton's run was a stunner during a season in which the Western Conference's top four seeds all lost their first-round series, while Los Angeles was an underachiever that finally realized its enormous potential while knocking off the West's top three seeds. “I think a lot of people felt we had the potential to do it this year, where those (Edmonton) playoffs were a surprise,'' said Greene, the stayat-home defenseman whose steadying influence has been enormous for the Kings. The Kings had their second full practice Saturday since eliminating Phoenix, going through mostly team drills and beginning preparations for the Devils. Los Angeles lost both of its regular-season meetings with New Jersey, but both games were very early in the season. The Kings aren't apologizing for their success, and they don't believe their relatively clean run through the first three rounds will hurt them in the finale. Los Angeles hasn't faced much adversity so far, yet the Kings have won two pressure-packed overtime road games to finish off series against Vancouver and Phoenix. “We've been very fortunate to be on top of our game, play well, and finish teams off when we had the chance,'' Williams said. “As a result, we're getting a ton of rest, and it's clearly going to be beneficial for us.''

Edwards Resigns Position To Join St. John’s Staff Contributed Article

St. Bonaventure Sports Information

ST. BONAVENTURE, N.Y. — St. Bonaventure head women's basketball coach Jim Crowley announced on Tuesday that assistant coach Priscilla Edwards has resigned and accepted the same position at St. John's University. "Priscilla will always be a Bonnie and we will miss her, but this is a very good opportunity for her," Crowley said. "She committed eight great years to the program and has made a significant impact. St. John's is getting not only a great coach but a great person as well." Edwards, a 2008 and 2009 graduate of St. Bonaventure, has served on Crowley's staff for the last three years and past two seasons as an

assistant. She was responsible for the organization and coordination of recruiting and also oversaw game scouting and film breakdown,

in addition to practice and game preparation. Furthermore, she led the year-round preparation and execution of individual development

workouts for both guards and post players. A Harlem, N.Y. native, Edwards was a fouryear letterwinner for the Bonnies, concluding her career in 2008-09 as part of what was then the best team in program history. The Bonnies won a then-program-record 23 games and advanced to the quarterfinals of the WNIT. During the 2009-10 season, Edwards served as the Director of Basketball Operations, assisting in the day-to-day management of the team, including program organization, travel and video exchange. This past season she helped guide the Bonnies to their first NCAA Tournament appearance, advancing all the way to the Sweet 16 and concluding the year with a program-record 31 victories — tied for the most in a single season by an Atlantic 10 Conference team.

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — It didn't take Ryan Fitzpatrick very long into the Bills' first voluntary minicamp practice Tuesday for the quarterback to notice Mario Williams' imposing presence on the other side of the line. At 6-foot-6 and 292 pounds, the defensive end is so big and showed such great burst that Fitzpatrick likened his new teammate to someone cooked up by a video gamer. "He looks like a Madden character you create when you sit there and up-up the strength, 9 and the guy keeps growing," Fitzpatrick said with a smile, referring to the popular NFL video game. "And then he's the fastest guy on the field, too." vey No need to adjust your TV set, Bills fans. As first impressions go, Williams made a big and immediate one among his new teammates in his practice debut. Lining up on the left side, Williams showed off an array of moves that have made him one of the NFL's premier pass rushers, and led to Buffalo making him the league's highest-paid defensive player by signing him to a six-year, $100 million contract in free agency two months ago. Williams showed power with a bull-rush that had tackle Chris Hairston back-pedaling into the pocket. And then there was Williams' speed, in which he twice burst past Hairston around the outside. "I'm doing pretty good right now," Williams said. "To get a chance to come back out and run around with the guys and finally step foot back on the field, it was great." Just don't ask him to make much out of participating in practice, even though this was Williams' first on-field team session of any kind in some eight months since a chest injury forced him to miss the final 11 games

with Houston last season. "Honestly," he said, "I don't think of anything else but going out and working." More important, he shrugged off a scare that happened late in practice, when Williams knocked knees with fellow defensive end Chris Kelsay during a team drill. Flexing his left knee, Williams was held out of a few plays before returning to finish practice. "I'll be fine," Williams said. "That's the last thing I'm worried about. Little things like that happen." Williams is the centerpiece of a revamped defense that's making the switch back to the 4-3 system, and now being overseen by Dave Wannstedt, who took over as coordinator

after George Edwards was fired after last season. Selected by Houston with the No. 1 pick in the 2006 draft, Williams is a two-time Pro Bowl selection who set the Texans record with 53 career sacks. He joins a defense that allowed a franchise worst 5,938 yards, and struggled in pressuring opposing quarterbacks last season, managing just 29 sacks, 10 of which came in one game. With Williams playing the left side, the Bills line will be filled out by tackles Kyle Williams and Marcel Dareus. Kelsay and Mark Anderson, another free-agent addition, are expected to split time at right defensive end.

The Bills' pass rush could improve further if linebacker Shawne Merriman is able to recover from surgery he had to repair both his right Achilles tendon and shoulder last season. Coach Chan Gailey said Merriman could be cleared to begin practicing as early as this week after the linebacker had a medical checkup on Tuesday. Aside from Mario Williams, several other Bills newcomers made their practice debuts. They included quarterback Vince Young, who was signed earlier this month to compete with Tyler Thigpen for the backup spot. Young showed off a strong and accurate arm by completing a deep pass up the left sideline to Naaman Roosevelt. Rookie cornerback Stephon Gilmore, the Bills' first-round pick, split time with the first-team defense. Much of the buzz, however, focused on Mario Williams, and what his addition has meant in raising the hopes of a team that's attempting to snap a 12-year playoff drought — the NFL's longest active streak. "Just the atmosphere in the facility: He brings that `it' factor," Kelsay said of Williams. "We'd be lying if we said we didn't expect a lot out of him. And I think he's just the guy to do it. He's a giant of a man. He's strong, he's fast, he's quick. "Everything you expect out of the guy, he is it." Notes: Coach Gailey doesn't expect WR Stevie Johnson to be cleared for practice until the start of training camp. Johnson, who had groin surgery earlier this month, worked out on his own Tuesday. ... DT Kyle Williams (foot surgery), CB Terrence McGee (left knee) and RT Erik Pears (undisclosed) were among the veteran who also did not practice. ... The Bills close this week's voluntary minicamp with practices Thursday and Friday.

Lake Erie Fishing Hotline

Contributed Article Department of Environmental Conservation

Now that surface temperatures have climbed to near 60 degrees, the nighttime walleye action is all but done in the nearshore shallows. Nighttime anglers have better luck targeting post-spawn walleye in 20-30 feet of water (fow). There has not been real solid daytime numbers yet, but anglers are starting to catch walleye in the 40-60 foot range. Trolling with worm harnesses or stickbaits is a good bet. Anglers continue to report good yellow perch catches. Between Cattaraugus Creek and Sturgeon Point, anglers are catching large perch in 50-62 fow. Off Seneca Shoal, perch catches start in 45 fow. East of Barcelona Harbor, anglers see decent perch catches in 40-45 fow. In all areas, emerald shiners fished just off the bottom work best. Smallmouth bass action is still going strong in the major harbors (Buffalo, Dunkirk, Barcelona) and around the breakwalls. Minnow-type stickbaits and jerkbaits have worked well for harbor anglers. Open lake anglers also report fantastic bass action. Target bass in 5-30 fow around rocky, reef areas. Some productive areas include Seneca Shoal, Woodlawn Bar, Myers Reef, Evans Bar and Van Buren Bay. However, just about any rocky nearshore area will hold bass at this time of year. Tube jigs, twister tails, deep diving stickbaits, live minnows and crayfish are good baits. A drop-shot rig with live bait or tube jigs is a good bet in deeper water.

On Lake Erie and its tributaries, anglers can keep one bass over 20 inches per day, and use of live or natural or live baits is permitted. On all other waters of western New York, bass fishing is by catch and release only, artificial lures only until the 3rd Saturday in June. Lake Erie Tributaries The smallmouth bass action has been tapering off in the tributaries. Cattaraugus Creek is your best bet for remaining smallmouth bass or catfish, as all other tributaries are running low and clear. Anglers can take bass on woolly buggers, streamers, stickbaits, minnows, crayfish and worms. Anglers can target channel catfish in Cattaraugus Creek with nightcrawlers, raw shrimp, chicken livers or cut bait fished on the bottom. Catfish catches are often better at night. Chautauqua Lake Walleye fishing has been slow, but they are available near weed edges after dark. Trolling with stickbaits or worm harnesses off weed edges in 10-20 feet of water is a good bet. Shore angers can target walleye at night, by casting stickbaits, especially near stream inlets. Yellow perch are readily available in most areas of lake and catches are great. Fishing along weed edges with minnows in 8-15 feet of water is a good bet for perch. Largemouth and smallmouth bass are being caught inside 10 fow. As a reminder, fishing for black bass is catch and release only, artificial lures only. Upper Niagara River Fishing has been fair from shoreline sites along the City

of Buffalo. Anglers report a mixed catch of yellow perch, white perch and rock bass on minnows and worms. Harbors, harbor mouths and inlets are good spots to target largemouth bass and northern pike. As a reminder, black bass fishing in the upper river is by catch and release only, artificial lures only, until the 3rd Saturday in June. Inland Trout Streams The region's trout streams are in good shape with moderate to slightly lower flows. Mayflies are hatching well and anglers see plenty of surface activity, especially in the afternoon. March browns, grey fox and sulphurs are hatching in earnest, with some bluewinged olives and caddis going as well. Fly anglers do well with imitation dry flies and with nymphs such as stoneflies, hares ear, pheasant tails and caddisflies. Spinning anglers do well with worms, salted minnows and small inline spinners. If you are a catch and release angler and use spinners, it is a good idea to outfit your spinners with a single hook rather than a treble hook. Spring Trout Stocking Each spring, DEC Fish Hatchery staff distribute thousands of yearling brown, brook and rainbow trout in western New York. In addition, many of the popular trout streams are also stocked with two-year-old brown trout that are between 12-15 inches long. Trout stocking has concluded on the majority of the region's stocked waters. For complete lists of stocked waters and numbers of trout stocked, check the DEC’s website.

Unproductive Fishing On Lake Erie By Steve Peacock Star Outdoors Writer

Early this spring the perch fishing was better than we’ve seen in a while. The perch were schooled up in the places you would expect them to be. It seemed like all of the boats were catching large numbers of fish. Then after the perch spawned, something happened and they seemed to have spread out. Even when you can see fish below the boat with the fish finder, they have not been biting. I had guessed that right around the same time as the perch were spawning the minnows that had been up in the creeks, finished their spawning and re-entered the lake. So I believe that until most of the minnows have left or are eaten, the fish are going to be too fed to bite. The walleye fishermen haven’t been doing any better and I expect it is for the same reason. The best catches that I have heard about have been one or two fish a day. I do think that with walleye, as well as perch, the fish are there. Last year it was July before the walleye fishing picked up. I keep thinking that it is going to be earlier this year because

RAIN RAIN GO AWAY continued from pg 5 Lake Erie Speedway had 36 Legends competitors show up for Saturdays race, which allowed speedway oﬃcials to designate the competitors into two separate INEX designated divisions, which are young lions/semi-pros and pro/ masters. Lake Erie Speedway fan, Anthony Ramy, was given the chance of a lifetime at Saturdays race by being inside the pace car to help start the INEX young lions/semi-pro legends feature race. Car No. 9 driven by Carl Vilardo IV came out of the gate in first place but was quickly stopped due to a caution on the first lap. At the end of the caution, Vilardo IV and car No. 19 driven by Kyle Hardwick were quickly passed by car No.

8, Bryce Norton. Norton and Vilardo IV were closely following one another going into lap 7 with car No. 5, Matt Hutchinson in a close third. Norton was later passed by Hutchinson and car No. 1, Brandon DeBrakeleer, but it was clearly Vilardo IV’s race to win. Car No. 33x, Dustin Fox, spun out while taking the first turn of lap 15 but was able to regain control and continue on in the race and allow the race to take the checkered flag. The race ended with Carl Vilardo IV in first place, Matt Hutchinson in second place and Brandon DeBrakeleer in third place. Prior to the start of the pro/ masters Legends feature, the rain fell and delayed the start

of the race. Speedway oﬃcials were successful at drying the track after a short delay, and the pro/masters Legends division was called back to the track to attempt to start their race. However, heavy rainfall came prior to the green flag and created unsafe driving conditions that could not quickly be remedied. The rain saturated the track and weather conditions in the surrounding area forced speedway oﬃcials to cancel the remainder of the night’s racing program. The special 100-lap Plyler Overhead Door Late Model event featuring the TBRA series is rescheduled for next week on Saturday, June 2nd for “Race to Read Night”.

HALLAWAY continued from pg 6 Beltran's three-run homer in the fifth was his NL-leading 15th and rookie Matt Adams, who's been filling in for injured Lance Berkman at first base, added the first of his career off Chad Qualls. Halladay (4-5) departed with a 3.98 ERA after an outing that matched the second-shortest outing of his career. The team said the two-time Cy Young award winner was taken out as a precautionary measure and that he'll be re-evaluated in the next few days. Halladay was 19-6 with a 2.35 ERA last year, and allowed 10 homers in 32 starts. Since winning his first three starts, Halladay is 1-5 with a 5.08 ERA in eight games, and the Phillies have lost seven of his last eight starts. He's absorbed the last two losses for the Phillies, who entered the series finale on a four-game winning streak. Molina's third career grand slam was the fifth allowed by Halladay, two of them this year after the Braves' Brian McCann connected May 2 at Atlanta. Halladay has allowed six homers this season, all this month. Unlike 2004, when Halladay

had two stints on the 15-day disabled list with a shoulder injury, he wasn't able to pinpoint a particular pitch with which the pain began. The biggest problem is the time between innings when the shoulder tightens. “It's kind of that down time when it seemed to come up,'' Halladay said. “I think if I just went out and threw 100 straight pitches without taking a break it might be all right.'' Cardinals manager Mike Matheny caught Halladay as a rookie in 1999 in Toronto, and knew the pitcher was off his game. “You just didn't know if it was physical or if it was just one of those things where he couldn't get anything positive going,'' Matheny said. “But usually you can tell if something isn't completely right. “Those guys aren't squaring him up like they have been lately.'' Skip Schumaker and Matt Holliday singled with one out and David Freese walked with two outs before Molina hit his seventh homer of the season to straightaway center, a deceptive drive that had Shane Victorino backpedaling before

running out of room. This is the 89th time the teams have met in St. Louis for a four-game series since the Phillies' last sweep in 1913. The Phillies' last three-game sweep in St. Louis was in 2006. “Going out there you just feel like we're walking into a heavyweight bout with these guys and you're just going to have to slug it out,'' Matheny said. “The hit by Yaddy, the home run, was a big deal just to give us that shot in the arm. “You could just tell it was a different atmosphere at that point.'' Molina made the Cardinals' only mistake, trotting from first to third after believing Adams' drive right-center in the fourth was a homer. Victorino made a leaping catch at the wall to rob Adams of extra bases and threw to first for an easy double play. The Phillies' 2-3-4 hitters, Juan Pierre, Hunter Pence and Carlos Ruiz, combined for seven hits. Pierre had three hits and two RBIs. The Cardinals lead the NL with 63 homers after entering the game with eight more than the next-best Brewers.

WOODSON EXTENSION continued from pg 6 “We thought he was the right guy for this team at this time. Obviously, there's some great coaches out there that had we opened up the search would have been called, mainly Phil Jackson, who's the most successful coach in the NBA history, but we felt Woody was our guy and he showed it during the season and our discussions after the season.'' Woodson shrugged off the Jackson speculation. “Tremendous coach, I know This 20-inch brown trout was caught and released in Tonawanda his name's been mentioned Creek in Wyoming County.

of the Year Tyson Chandler, moved the Knicks into the top half of the league's defensive rankings after they had been one the worst teams for years. D'Antoni resigned March 14 when the Knicks were 18-24 and in danger of missing the playoffs. Woodson won his first five games and was praised by players for holding them more accountable to playing defense. Most importantly, he got the most out of Carmelo Anthony, who was having a disappointing season in D'Antoni's offense but was April's Eastern Conference player of the month. “Mike took over the team under challenging circumstances and made it clear, starting on day one, that he was going to hold every player on our roster accountable,'' Dolan said in a statement. “We saw a significant improvement since Mike took over and believe our team will only keep improving under Mike's direction.'' Woodson denied recent reports that he had replaced agent Joe Glass under pressure from Dolan to avoid having to work

again with former coach Larry Brown's representation. Woodson confirmed he switched to CAA, but said it was his choice, and that agent Terry Prince had worked on his contract. Anthony, Chandler and fellow star Amare Stoudemire had all backed Woodson's return when the season ended. And his chances of improving returned when the Knicks removed the interim tag from Grunwald, his former college teammate at Indiana, late in the regular season. Woodson previously spent six seasons as coach of the Atlanta Hawks, improving his win total in every season until they went 53-29 in 2009-10. But he wasn't retained after they were swept in the conference semifinals for the second straight year. He then sat out a year before interviewing last summer for openings in Detroit — where he was an assistant on the Pistons' NBA championship team in 2004 — Minnesota and Houston. He then was hired by the Knicks on Aug. 29. Woodson has a career 224-292 record as an NBA coach.

Insider By T.J. TOMASI

BIRDIES AND BOGEYS

Tiger Woods’ secret weapon It seems strange to many that Tiger Woods was OK with his final-round 73 at The Players Championship — a sloppy 1-overpar where he missed 63 percent of the fairways, 50 percent of the greens and made one double bogey and three bogies. Tiger described his round: “I didn’t really hit any bad shots and, all of a sudden, I had a bogey, a birdie and a double (bogey). We were looking back on it and didn’t hit any bad shots and here you are at 2-over for the day.” But those who watched him play attest that he did hit a bunch of bad shots, so what was he talking about? Tiger was using a tool I call “posi-talk.” Using this technique, you become a spin doctor, putting a positive interpretation on your outcomes: The glass is half-full, the wind is your friend, bad bounces are part of the game and “I’m close” or “I’m making progress” are the staples of posi-talk. There are many self-help experts who sing the praises of positive thinking and nurturing affirmations. Emile Coue founded a school of psychotherapy based on the principle that if you repeat an affirmation often enough, the brain converts belief into physical reality. At the rate Tiger is going, positalk may be his secret weapon. THE GOLF DOCTOR

What game are you playing? Kevin Na was playing just fine, leading The Players Championship with 18 holes to go, when he became a victim of WWPTOM. Over 54 holes, he played a game called “golf,” then switched to another game I call “What Will People Think of Me.” For three rounds, Na fidgeted over the ball until he got the OK from his subconscious to pull the trigger, and then he hit great shots. But in the last round, after getting a lot of criticism for his slow play, he tried to hurry to please others. His game went south because he didn’t wait for his “go” signal. Keep in mind that different games have different rules. If you’re playing WWPTOM, you don’t want to hold up other players, so you hurry. At one point during the last round, Na was actually running between shots. At the end of the day, he had won the game called What Will People Think of Me, but lost the game called golf. I used a pro as an example to make the point that this game is not limited to the amateur ranks. WWPTOM is played regularly on the pro tours, too.

IT’S GOOD FOR YOUR GAME

TEEING OFF

Learn to read your own mind

Get more distance off the tee Below are a few tips that will help you hit your drives longer. Shaft length The first thing you can do to lengthen your drives is buy a longer-shafted driver. All things being equal, the longer the shaft, the farther you’ll hit the ball. However, there’s a trade-off because it’s harder to make square contact using the longer shaft, and you’ll lose distance if contact isn’t made on the sweet spot. Besides using feel, you can use impact tape or chalk to determine the centeredness of the hit for each swing. To find out the shaft length that is right for you, test three different lengths, hitting 10 shots with each one on two separate occasions. If your percentage of off-center hits is greater than 30 percent, the shaft isn’t for you. The swing Many golfers feel powerful when they reach for the ball at address, but this puts too much weight on the toes. To establish proper balance, it’s important to stick your fanny up and out behind you as a counterweight to your head. As your swing reaches maximum speed, your posterior acts as an anchor that allows your arms to swing at full force on a constant arc. As you assume the address position, imagine that you are about to sit on a high bar stool, and make sure that your rump is well behind your heels. The transition The quality checkpoint in every long drive is the transition at the start of the

downswing. Here ABOUT THE WRITER is where short Dr. T.J. hitters hurry, Tomasi is a teaching causing them to professional spend the rest of in Port St. the downswing Lucie, Fla. Visit his trying to make website at the clubhead go tjtomasi.com. faster. Long hitters take their time. Think of a line of skaters with a girl in the middle (the hub) and four skaters on each side holding hands. As the hub increases her speed of rotation, the speed of the girl on the end is multiplied until she is whirling the fastest of all. This is exactly what happens to your clubhead as your hips (the hub) fire for a big drive. If you keep your shoulders, arms and hands in sync so that no one part hogs the spotlight, the power of your hips will translate into clubhead speed at impact. The wall Look at any long hitter and you’ll see that he has a firm front leg and hip through impact. This “wall” formed by the leg and hip sets up a powerful collision between the clubhead and the ball. If you’re losing your front-side brace, practice straightening your front leg through impact, just as a javelin thrower does when launching the javelin. More tips on getting the most distance out of your driver are in my online video at www.golf.com/video/12-wayscreate-ascending-attack.

Long before you make a golf swing, the networks in your brain are idling and ready to act. The “whats” (mechanics) of the swing have been chosen, and your brain is simply waiting for the “when” (the go signal). What is the general nature of this trigger that sets the club in motion? In addition to external messages that bombard you from the outside world, you get internal messages from your subconscious, where your emotions, beliefs and skills are stored in special brain cells. Once your senses have gathered the specific information about the shot, you must tamp down the warnings (the “no” signals) before a “go” signal can emerge. Your subconscious communicates in signals, and to play your best golf you must recognize what these signals are trying to tell you. You may feel unsure or decisive, uneasy or calm, worried or confident, distressed or relaxed, annoyed or serene. The ringmaster in your brain’s frontal lobe screens out the bogus warnings while identifying and evaluating those warnings based on legitimate concerns, such as a swirling wind, hazards and difficult pin placements. Since your subconscious will not generate a go signal while any no signals are still unresolved, the key is to become skilled at turning a no into a go. Unfortunately, if you’re like most golfers, you receive no signals when you play, but you try to play through them — a cardinal mistake. Since you’re snubbing warnings from your own brain, you’re playing against yourself. It’s an exhausting way to play the game because you fight yourself internally, which is one battle you’ll never win. Next week we’ll outline strategies to turn a no into a go. GOLF SPOKEN HERE

Back weight J.J. Henry demonstrates the beginning of the power sequence. He’ll bump his hips toward the target and shift his weight left into the ground. This will pull his arms and clubhead down in a powerful arc.

— Mike Whan, responding to a question from Forbes magazine: “Should Augusta National admit female members?” After that response, the question should be, “Should the LPGA admit that Whan is their commish?”

Downswing sequence is difficult to time Q: My question is about the downswing: Should I drop the club in the slot before the hip turn? — T.C. A: The drop-and-shift move is two moves performed at once, which is why it’s hard to time. The key is that the weight shifts to the front hip while at the same time the hands drop into the slot. Then and only then do the hips pivot. If you try to turn the hips and slot the club at

the same time, the clubhead will be trapped behind your body because the hips have a much shorter journey to impact than the clubhead. The clubhead wouldn’t have enough time to make it to impact with a square face. The shiftwithout-turn gives the hands time to slot, then you can let your rotation rip.

WHAT SCIENCE SAYS

Record low score is tied Less front-foot flare can reduce slice According to a report on the Golf Channel, Rhein

292 Gibson shot a 55 on a 6,700-yard layout — 16 under for

18 holes — at River Oaks Country Club in Edmond, Okla., on May 12. Gibson made 12 birdies, two eagles and four pars. His playing partners documented that the score recorded from the back tees was legit. “Both verified to Golf Oklahoma that even though the players battled mud balls from overnight rains on Friday, the ball was played down throughout and all putts holed out,” reported Golf Oklahoma, the state golf association. Did he have a special feeling before the round? Nope! According to his buddy, he was partying until late and he wasn’t all that sure he was going to make the 8:15 a.m. starting time. Plus, there was no warm-up because the driving range was closed due to heavy rains. So did he stay hot and rip it up in his next round four days later? Nope. Gibson shot 75 — four days is a long time for a sport with a short memory.

Recently, Dr. Eric Wilson and I directed a study at Keiser University to determine the effect frontfoot flare at address (left foot for a right-handed golfer) has on the clubface angle at impact. Sixteen amateur golfers with a wide range of handicaps (2 to 18) took 10 swings with their normal foot flare and 10 swings with their lead foot perpendicular to the target line. The angle of the clubface was measured for each swing to determine where the clubface was pointing at impact in relationship to the target line. A statistical evaluation of the results showed that the clubface was more closed to the target line when the test subjects used the perpendicular flare than when they used their normal flare. This confirmed the hypothesis that a de-flared front foot can influence the spin of the ball, primarily reducing slice spin. This finding suggests that golfers may decrease their slice spin by using a simple intervention tech-

nique based on front-foot flare that does not require a complicated in-swing fix. Much value is placed on golf instruction that allows a player to adjust the curve of the ball through intervention, and while there are several factors that contribute to successful intervention, this study suggests that foot flare is an important component. The Takeaway: If you slice the ball, your clubPGA Tour player Jhonattan face is probably open Vegas has very little flare in to your swing path. By de-flaring your front foot, his front foot. you can square up the face and stop the slice.

Old-school authority A&E dips into Western-themed trend

By Dee Wright TV Media

elcome to Absaroka County, Wyo. It’s a small, quiet community where no one locks their doors, and the big social event of the year is Pancake Day at the local church. The townspeople and the local Cheyenne tribe live in a peaceful but delicate balance. That is, until four high school boys get drunk and rape a Cheyenne girl who has fetal alcohol syndrome. The sentences that the boys faced were minimal, and the tribe was insulted, putting the townspeople in fear of an attack. Two years later, one of the boys is found killed in the woods. While many assume it’s a hunting trip gone wrong, the sheriff smells foul play. A&E’s newest scripted series, “Longmire,” premieres Sunday, June 3. Walt Longmire has been wearing the sheriff’s badge in Absaroka County for almost 25 years. His rough-and-tumble way of getting answers has some citizens praising him and others fearing him. He has managed to keep a fair balance in town for many years, but the boy’s murder has his reputation on the line. Longmire’s reign may be interrupted when one of his deputies decides that he could do a better

Robert Taylor stars in “Longmire” job as sheriff and plans to run against him in the next election. On a more personal note, Longmire has been mourning the loss of his wife, and his grown daughter has been urging him to get out of his depression if he wants to stay the sheriff. The TV show is based on a series of Western-crime novels written by Craig Johnson. Johnson has published eight novels -pretty much one a year since 2004 -- that follow Longmire and his small-town struggles. Robert Taylor stars as the re-

vered sheriff, but it’s likely not the Robert Taylor most people would think about first. The first Robert Taylor that comes to mind is likely the black-and-white film star who appeared in more than 50 movies between 1934 and 1968. “Longmire’s” Taylor is from Australia, and most of his previous roles have been Down Under. He did, however, have a minor role as Agent Jones in “The Matrix” (1999). Lou Diamond Phillips stars as Henry Standing Bear, Longmire’s ally and middleman with the Cheyenne tribe. Phillips is oneeighth Cherokee, so his portrayal of a Native is not much of a stretch, though he is representing a different tribe. Phillips has had an extensive career throughout the past 25 years, including “Young Guns” (1988), “Dangerous Touch” (1994) and “Supernova” (2000). Recently, he appeared in indie film “Filly Brown” (2012), which was nominated for the Grand Jury Prize at this year’s Sundance Film Festival. Bailey Chase stars as Branch Connally, Longmire’s new competition for the sheriff’s badge. Chase starred in TNT’s Oscarnominated series “Saving Grace”, alongside Holly Hunter. He also starred in two seasons of “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” as Graham.

Doctors without borders: Canadian medical drama crosses over to U.S. By Kyla Brewer TV Media

ew countries in the world are as neighborly as Canada and the U.S. They share the longest international border between the same two countries, along with many other things. Media between the nations often mix, and nowhere is that more evident than in the television industry. For years, Canadians have enjoyed U.S. programs, from daytime talk shows and soaps to prime-time hits. In recent years, however, the tables have been turning, and a new spate of Canadian series are making their way south. The latest such series to cross the border is “Saving Hope,” premiering Thursday, June 7, on NBC. Set in Toronto’s Hope-Zion Hospital, the medical drama opens as charismatic Chief of Surgery Charlie Harris (Michael Shanks) falls into a coma, plunging the hospital into chaos. Erica Durance, best known to many as Lois Lane in the CW’s “Smallville,” stars as Alex Reid, a fellow surgeon who is also Harris’s fiancee. While “Saving Hope” could be compared to the droves of medical dramas that have graced the small screen over the years, it’s actually more interesting for how it differs. Straddling both the worlds of traditional dramas and sci-fi, it is not typical prime-time fare. As Reid and new surgeon Joel Goran (Daniel Gillies) struggle to save the comatose doctor’s life, Harris roams the halls of the hospital in “spirit” form. It isn’t clear, even to Harris himself, whether he’s truly a ghost or simply a figment of his own imagination. The cast also includes Husein (Huse) Madhavji, Julia Taylor-Ross, Kristopher Turner and Wendy Crews-

Bree Williamson joins the cast of “Haven” next season

“One Life to Live,” will play psychiatrist Dr. Claire Callahan when the series resumes later this year. The new character will lend her profiling skills to police officer Audrey Parker (played by leading lady Emily Rose), and the two will become close friends. Claire will also use her skills to help the town’s residents deal with problems stemming from their supernatural powers. Based on Stephen King’s popular novella “The Colorado Kid,” the series also stars Lucas Bryant, Eric Balfour, John Dunsworth and Richard Donat. In previous episodes, it has drawn a few interesting guest stars as well, including Jason Priestley

(“Beverly Hills, 90210”) and WWE wrestler Adam (Edge) Copeland. Williamson joined the now-defunct ABC sudser in 2003 and stayed on as a member of its cast until it was canceled in January of this year. She previously guest starred as Brandeis in two episodes of “Gossip Girl” and has also appeared in “Mutant X,” “Law & Order: Criminal Intent” and “Earth: Final Conflict.” The premiere date for Season 3 has not yet been released by Syfy, but production of the new 13 episodes recently began in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia. The Maritime towns where the series is filmed represent King’s fictitious town of Haven, Maine. The new season will begin right where Season 2 ended, with Audrey being kidnapped. Also at that time, Nathan was pondering a romantic relationship with Audrey but then got into a brutal fight with Duke.

Discovery’s Cameo Wallace and Sharp Entertainment’s Matt Sharp will serve as the series’ executive producers.

Ramsay rules Fox: Double shots of ‘Hell’s Kitchen,’ ‘Masterchef’ added to lineup TV Media

e may be reality TV’s bad boy, but it seems viewers – and Fox – can’t get enough of Gordon Ramsay’s antics. His series “Kitchen Nightmares” wrapped up its fourth season on March 30, but Fox has assured fans it will indeed be back for a fifth season. Another addition – “Hotel Hell” – is coming soon to the Ramsay television empire, and follows RamGordon Ramsay returns in “Hell’s Kitchen” say as he applies his “Kitchen Nightmares” modus operandi to hotels. But it’s his two biggest ratings winners that are in the spotlight this week, as they’re set to dominate Fox’s summer lineup. On Monday, June 4, Fox rolls out the red carpet for the 10th season premiere of “Hell’s Bella Casa Kitchen,” followed by the third season premiere of “Mas3 x 3” terchef.” Both one-hour programs are also currently scheduled for an additional airing on Tuesday evenings throughout their summer runs – yup, that’s four full hours of Ramsay each week.

Superstar puts Mets on track to win division By Joel Duplessis TV Media

he New York Mets are enjoying a surprisingly optimistic start to the 2012 regular season as they find themselves in the heart of the National League East division race. Their productive young lineup and steady pitching are major reasons for the good start; however, it’s been the stellar play of veteran third baseman David Wright that’s garnered the most attention. Wright has long been the face of the New York Mets franchise, and his incredible start to the 2012 campaign has rejuvenated a fan base that expected little from the club this season. Wright has been tearing the cover off the ball to start the season and he’s shown no signs of slowing down. In late May, he was batting over .400 with 20-plus RBIs and an OPS in the 1.000 range. His defense has been solid at third base and the leadership he brings to the young clubhouse is immeasurable. The Mets appeared to be in a re7:00 p.m.

building mode when they traded away Carlos Beltran and allowed Jose Reyes to walk via free agency. But their quick start to the season and tenacious young team has the Mets front office in a difficult position as they decide what to do with Wright’s contract, which is due to expire next season. General Manager Sandy Alderson can exercise a club option on Wright’s contract for $16 million, which would delay long-term deal negotiations until Fall 2013. A less likely option would be to negotiate a new deal this summer, but with his stock at an all-time high Alderson should hold off for now. A trade is always possible, but for any team to pry Wright away from New York, it would take a hefty price tag consisting of multiple blue-chip prospects. Expect the Mets to be patient with the 29-year-old superstar and attempt to lock him into a longterm deal this winter. Playing in possibly the best division in baseball, the Mets will need Wright’s consistency and leadership as the club heads into the dog days of summer. (62) NBCSN NHL Hockey Stanley Cup
