Keeping The Faith When someone comes to me for spiritual direction and declares that they aren't getting their prayers answered, I always ask, "What scripture are you standing on?" This means that you have found a scripture in the Bible that is the promise to your prayer request. For example, if you are sick and want to be better, you may use Psalms 103:2-3, "Bless Rev. Michael Lokietek the Lord, O my soul, and Family Church Fredonia forget not all His benefits, (3) Who forgives all your fcfredonia.org iniquities, Who heals all your diseases." You Dear Pastor, it seems may want to memorize that my prayers don't it, write this scripture get answered. What down and tape it to your am I doing wrong? refrigerator, and repeat it during the day.

Spirit's duties is to put us in remembrance of all the promises the God has given to us ( John 14:26). When you are standing on a scripture you are actually taking a faith stand. When we talk about faith, we are talking about choosing to believe what God says in His Word. When we ask God for something using His Own words, we need to believe that God will answer our prayers. Why must we believe? Because God tells us to! Jesus says in Mark 11:24 that "… whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them." The world says that I will believe it when I see it; God tells us that we will see it when we believe it! Next week…more on praying in faith!

Opera House to Host BBQ, Bake Sale & Basket Auction Fund-Raiser Contributed Article 1891 Fredonia Opera House
The 1891 Fredonia Opera House will hold a chicken & pork BBQ fund-raiser on Sat., June 3, in Fredonia’s West Barker Common near the Gazebo. A Bake Sale and Basket Auction also will be a part of the event. All proceeds benefit the Opera House’s annual Bach & Beyond Baroque Music Festival. Opera House Executive Director Rick Davis says that the event is the third Bach BBQ event in as many years, and replaces the “BachYard” sale, which the theatre held for many years during the Village’s Attic & Seller Days. “The yard sale became very labor-intensive and difficult to mount every year,” he says. “So we have put that project to rest and for the past few years, we have held a ‘Bach BBQ, Bake Sale and Basket Auction’ instead!” BBQ by Hector Alverio will provide the food for the event. Each meal includes a quarter chicken with BBQ sauce, a pulled pork slider, baby red potatoes and corn on the cob. BBQ tickets are $11 and can be purchased from Opera House Board and staff members, at the Opera House Box Office and online at www.fredopera.org. They also will be available for purchase in the park the day of the BBQ until sold out. A variety of delicious baked goods also will be for sale at the June 3 event. And 15 baskets containing a variety of goods and services will be raffled off using a Basket Auction format. Examples of items in the baskets include: a baseball package including four tickets to a Buffalo Bison game and Bison Bucks; a basket filled with $100 worth of scratch-off instant lottery tickets; a bird-feeding station and bird feeders; an autumn serving platter, pitcher and bowl set; an

Softest
Snickerdoodles By Katy Wise Contributing Writer
Everyone has favorite recipes. Sometimes they are tried and true, or passed down from generation to generation or friend to friend. Sometimes they are something you found online after seconds of Google searching. Sometimes they have good reviews and sometimes they don't. This particular recipe was found quickly, with five star ratings of six hundred plus. That's a pretty good average. Especially since most people don't even bother to write a review unless something is exceptional or just absolutely horrid. Through reading many reviews before cooking, baking or purchasing, it's usually the latter of the two. Then sometimes there are those quite obvious 'user error' but still trying to blame someone else reviews. Those are always good for a laugh or two. To be perfectly transparent, I've never really like snicker doodle cookies. Maybe because my earliest memories of them have all been packaged cookies, which I don't really prefer. I have always been partial to homemade baked goods. As my husband would say, I'm a cookie snob. I'm not going to try to deny it. It's the truth. So for some reason, the reason not being that these are my favorite cookie, I just had an urge to bake something cinnamon flavored, and these cookies came to mind. I have several things coming up that would be useful to have cookies on hand for, and a couple dozen extra cookies in the freezer is always a good thing. Want to have someone over last minute but there's nothing ready to feed them? Extra cookies in the freezer to the rescue! Or on the other side of the table, maybe you were the impromptu invite, and you'd like to bring something to your host and/or hostess. Again with the cookies to the rescue! See, this is a foolproof plan here. Unless you eat the rescuing cookies. Then they can't help you.
Well anyways, I made these cookies and they were fantastic. Chewy, soft, the perfect texture and not too big. The recipe yielded about sixty small-medium sized cookies. Not bite size, but definitely not huge either. This is also a great size to store. Smaller cookies are a personal favorite around here. They don't take as long to bake, and there is less surface area so the chewy texture is all throughout the cookie rather than just in the middle or outer edges. Without any further ado, here is the recipe. As always, thanks for reading! Happy baking from HBK! Ingredients • 1 C. Butter • 1 1/2 C. Sugar • 2 Large eggs • 1 tsp. Vanilla • 2 3/4 C. Flour • 2 tsp. Cream of tartar • 1 tsp. Baking Soda • 1/4 tsp. Salt • 3 Tbsp. Sugar • 3 tsp. Cinnamon
1. Set butter out to soften (2 sticks) for about 40 minutes and preheat oven to 350 degrees. 2. Mix wet ingredients together with sugar in large mixing bowl. Softened butter, sugar, vanilla and eggs. 3. In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt. 4. Using about 1 cup at a time, mix the flour mixture into the butter mixture, scraping the sides of the bowl each time. 5. Once the dough is thoroughly mixed together, roll into 1-2" balls. 6. Mix the remaining three tablespoons of sugar and three teaspoons of cinnamon together in a small bowl. 7. Roll the small balls of dough in the cinnamon sugar, then place on baking sheet about 2-3" apart. 8. Bake for 9-10 minutes. You may want to use about 3 cookies to get a test time. My baking time was not the same as the original recommended baking time. 9. Let cookies set on cookie sheet for a minute or two before transferring to cooling rack. This is crucial to having intact, not breaking-in-half cookies. 10. Enjoy!! Makes anywhere from 30-60 cookies depending on size.

Protecting Seniors Online from Scams, Hacks, and Tax Fraud Contributed Article News USA
The vast majority of seniors today are using the Internet at least once a week to check email, pay bills online and keep in touch via social media. But all that time online puts them at risk for scams and hacks, such as tax fraud. In fact, a new survey by Home Instead, Inc., franchisor of the Home Instead Senior Care network, found that 67 percent of surveyed older adults have been the victim of an online scam or hack. Encouraging seniors to practice cyber security can go a long way toward protecting their identity and sensitive financial information. Home Instead collaborated with the National Cyber Security Alliance to create Protect Seniors Online, available at www. ProtectSeniorsOnline.com, a free resource that educates older adults about cybersecurity. Here, seniors can test their cybersecurity skills with the “Can You Spot an Online Scam?” quiz. Older adults can take the following steps now to protect themselves online: • Password protect and secure devices, accounts. Lock all devices (including computers, tablets and smartphones) with secure passwords in case devices are lost or stolen. • Think before clicking. When faced with an urgent request -- like emails asking for money -- think
before clicking or get a second opinion. Clicking on links is often how scammers get personal information. When in doubt, trash an unusual message. • Share with care. More than half (51 percent) of seniors surveyed by Home Instead use social media to stay connected. Use care when sharing personal information, adjust privacy settings to limit who can see your information, and turn off location sharing. • Use security software. Install anti-virus and anti-spyware software and program it to run regularly. And be wary of pop-up ads or emails, many of which contain malware that can infect computers. • Log out. Log out of apps and websites when you are finished. Leaving apps and websites open on computer screens could make you vulnerable to security and privacy risks. • Recommend support. Older adults who live alone may need help from a trusted source -- such as a family member, tech-savvy friend or professional caregiver -- to serve as a second set of eyes. To explore additional Protect Seniors Online resources, including the interactive quiz, visit www.ProtectSeniorsOnline.com. A Home Instead office near you can be found by visiting www.homeinstead. com/state.
THE IMPORTANCE OF VACCINATION, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 8 All parents are encouraged to have their children immunized by their pediatrician or contact their local Health Department for information on how to receive vaccinations. The Vaccines for Children (VFC) and the Vaccine for Adults (VFA) programs provide vaccines to children and adults who are underinsured and may not be able to afford them. “Maintaining high immunization rates by vaccinating on time, every time is the key to keeping dangerous diseases away from our communities,” said Schuyler. To find out what vaccines your child needs and when, ask your healthcare provider, visit the New York State Department of Health website at www.health. ny.gov or call your local Health Department. Additional information is available online at www.cdc.gov/vaccines/parents or via phone at 800-CDC-INFO (800232-4636).

Why Yoga Relieves Stress, Improves Central Florida’s Hidden Health and Balances Your Life Gems Shine in the Summer Contributed Article NewsUSA
Contributed Article NewsUSA
Florida may be best known as a winter- and springbreak getaway, but savvy travelers will tell you that the Sunshine State is most certainly a summer destination as well. Florida is home to many diversions perfect for lazy summer days, especially when you head inland and away from the crowds. Streamsong Resort, located between Tampa and Orlando in central Florida’s Polk County, is one off-the-beaten-path destination that truly shines during the summer. Known for its nationallyranked golf, the 16,000-acre property is home to soaring sand dunes, wide open fields, dense woods, deep lakes, and a lone palm tree, giving it a distinct “anywhere but Florida” look. “Out-of-staters think Florida is just crowded beaches and theme parks,” says Richard Mogensen, Streamsong’s general manager. “They’re shocked when they travel inland and experience a destination like Streamsong that’s more about relaxing and savoring their time off.” While golf may be in the resort’s DNA, it has become known as a prime spot for outdoor enthusiasts. In fact, Streamsong’s guided bass fishing tours routinely pull in fish weighing more than six pounds, and it’s not unusual for guests to reel in a catch north of eight pounds. The property’s sporting clays course -- located about 15 minutes from the Lodge, but, amazingly, still on the property -- challenges guests to shoot over a variety of ravine landscapes from multiple stations, all the while being surrounded by local flora, fauna and wildlife. And, the adjacent archery range lets guests perfect their marksmanship in a serene natural setting. Of course, you don’t have to be the outdoorsy type to enjoy Streamsong. The lakeside infinity pool is prime for lounging and the resort’s grotto-style spa beckons guests seeking a slice of serenity. “At Streamsong, relaxation is whatever you want it to be -- whether it’s playing 36 holes of golf or spending the afternoon stretched out in a cabana,” Mogensen says. For more information, go to www.streamsongresort.com or call 1-866-849-8582.
Life is stressful. Between a down economy, long commutes to a job you may not even like, and overbearing bosses, not to mention trying to eke out a few minutes of “me” time in between diaper changes and dinner dates with your significant other, life can be challenging. Equally apparent is that for decades we’ve been told that yoga can combat all of these stressors -- and yet, it seems as if it is one of the last things people try to take the edge off. For Leslie Crespi, a social worker in Atlanta, it was the changes she saw in a colleague that got her to consider attending an Inner Engineering program of Isha yoga. A key component to the practice is the “kriya,” which Crespi describes to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution in an interview as a “process to energize and balance the human system using breathing.” “The kriya gives me a sense of balance and the ability to deal with life as it is,” she tells the paper. “It’s not about what I do anymore. It’s about how I am, and that’s a beautiful way to live.” If the thought of having more balance and energy in your life sounds intriguing, the Isha Institute of Inner Sciences may just be for you. Nestled in Tennessee’s spectacular Upper Cumberland (45 minutes outside of Chattanooga), the retreat center offers daily campus tours that include light hikes, rejuvenating time spent in Adiyogi: Abode of Yoga (an energized meditation space), and a visit to the largest yoga and meditation hall in the western hemisphere. For daytrippers, visitors learn yoga for free, if they arrive in the scheduled time for the session each day. Looking to stay awhile? An overnight includes the option of private studio accommodations, delicious vegetarian buffet meals, and an introductory yoga session of the visitor’s choice, such as the yoga of sound, yoga for strengthening the joints, and yoga for purifying life energies. The center also offers a myriad of opportunities for hiking and mountain biking on forested trails winding throughout nearly 1,400 acres. The center’s five miles of mountain biking trails feature waterfalls, a spring-fed creek, and bluff overlooks. And for those strictly interested in getting centered, there are beginning level yoga and meditation weekends, classical Hatha yoga programs, and individual wellness retreats.

Always Be Looking To Improve As loyal readers know, my cousin Nick is entering his second season as a golfer. He has spent some money to accumulate his own set of clubs, but he kept his set Stefan Gestwicki at the low end of the price spectrum. That’s a wise move. Expensive clubs will do absolutely nothing for your game until you have a good swing. Do you honestly By this point in the golf season, hopefully most of us have knocked off the winter think a $500 Titleist driver is suddenly going to cure that wicked slice that you’ve rust and have started to find our swings. had for the past 10 years? Unlikely. In fact, I’d say impossible. While I’m not 100 percent back to peak scores, I’m still pretty happy with where So that’s today’s lesson: Improve your swing. Do know, however, that things will my swing is at. probably get worse before they get better. We all have bad habits in our swings that feel natural to us because we’ve been doing them for so long. Good technique But is that good enough? No. I say it isn’t. I’m constantly trying to improve my won’t come easy, but it’ll be worth it in the long run (I assume — my swing is swing. Trust me when I say this: YouTube is your friend. There are so many probably pretty ugly, but I’m working on it). videos out there that are designed to help you cure that slice, hook, putting weakness, tendency to top the ball or whatever else you’re looking to improve on.

I figured the courses would be relatively void of wedge, but when I had to hit a 30-yard pitch and roll, etc., I was straight garbage. people – giving us free range. My buddy Matt lives in Orchard Park, so we tend I can honestly say today that those shots just off the green are some of my best, to meet halfway(ish) at Rose Brook Golf Club in Irving. most confident moments on the golf course. If you played the course last year, you might remember it was hit pretty hard by the drought. The new owners did their best to pump water from the ponds and creeks, but there’s only so much you can do to combat Mother Nature. This year, however, I couldn’t believe the difference. The greens bounced back. The fairways were drastically improved. They said they had already fertilized multiple times. They reseeded. They rolled. Gary and Myra (the new owners) are truly committed to helping Rose Brook reach its full potential. So far, so good, I’d say. I’ve never been too keen on playing with three players. One of those players inevitably has to ride by themselves and feels a little left out. Obviously you tee off together and you’re all together on the green, but we did spend a lot of time just giving thumbs up across the fairway to Nick. I would have loved to get a fourth, but that proved difficult this time. I played…decently. I was brilliant off the tee even with the savage winds. I even putted pretty well. It was everything in between that kept me from having a great round. That said, I had a 43 on the front nine – which is just six over the par 37. All I had were 4’s and 5’s across the board (there’s only one par 3 on the front half). The back nine got me pretty good, though. The par goes down to 35, yet my score jumped to a 46. The biggest problem was probably my zero one-putts on the back nine. I went into the day wanting to break 90 and finished with an 89, so I guess I should have been happy, but it’s tougher to be satisfied when you start well and finish poorly. I also wanted to take a moment to thank all of the people that emailed me about last week’s golf shoe conundrum. I sincerely appreciate the feedback and advice. I think I may have found the right pair for me. Hopefully I’ll be able to write about the new kicks in next week’s article. Until then, golf is great. Go get some. By Contributing Writer

Top Tips for Timely Performance Driving Contributed Article NewsUSA
As millions of Americans know, daily commutes can be stressful and monotonous. Couple that with winter weather, and staying alert is paramount--especially as road conditions start to deteriorate. To that point, you never know when you’re going to need to become a Timely Performance Driver. Timely Performance is a term that describes being present in the moment when driving so you can maximize your car’s performance and react quickly to surprising situations on the road. Based on a recent survey, 75 percent of U.S. adults say they need to become Timely Performance Drivers at least once a week, and those who reported a need to react quickly to a driving situation say they do so approximately 6 times per week. BFGoodrich Tires has conducted a survey of driving behaviors. The study group included 1,009 adults (aged 18 years and older) living in the continental United States. The sample was representative of the general population in terms of geographic, demographic, and socioeconomic traits. Overall, 82 percent of the survey respondents say that drivers often face unexpected situations on the road, and 54 percent agree that drivers drive better in potentially dangerous situations.
Andrew Comrie-Picard, a professional race car driver, X-Games athlete, and BFGoodrich ambassador, emphasizes that drivers of any age can (and should) practice Timely Performance Driving by staying alert so they can push their car to its maximum performance in the moments that matter most. According to Comrie-Picard, key aspects of Timely Performance Driving include: • Looking far down the road to anticipate potential issues and road hazards. • Remembering the importance of smooth contol inputs, such as braking, throttling, and steering. • Anticipating road conditions, such as standing water and slick roads. • Driving with two hands on the wheel--no exceptions. • Keeping distance between you and the car in front of you. Comrie-Picard also says it’s important to ensure that your tires are appropriate for your car and wellmaintained. Specifically, he likes the BFGoodrich Advantage T/A Sport tire for its seasonality and performance capabilities during the harsh winter weather months, as well as throughout the year. Additional information on BFGoodrich Tires, as well as other driving tips, can be found on http://www. BFGoodrichTires.com.
