Homemade by Katy looks at tasty ways to celebrate the Fourth of July this year.
living off America, or being taxed into oblivion by America, neither of which lend to patriotism. The poor cannot truly be patriotic. Either they’ll carry a chip on their shoulder toward the government, or they’ll expect the government to take care of them. That is not patriotism that is dependence. The wealthy cannot remain patriotic to a country that continually removes their wealth in the name of poverty. They will live here, they will make their homes here, but they will not love here. But, in the name of the World Cup, all that animosity seemed to slip away. Boys in the projects with tattered clothes run in laughter with a soccer ball someone dropped on the side of the road. Men with millions in savings and men with none gather in the name of unity over one speckled ball, and it is beautiful. I don’t expect this article to change anything, but it’s food for thought. If we all gathered as passionately behind our nation as we do behind a soccer ball, imagine where our country could go. Scott Wise is the editor of the Chautauqua Star.

erful way that sports brings people together, because it fascinates me. I’ve been passively following the World Cup online. And by passive, I mean not at all. But when I was at a bowling alley over the weekend, there was a unique camaraderie that formed between complete strangers – around a soccer ball and some men in US jerseys. Why? What is it about this sport, or most sports, that cause even the worst of enemies to embrace each other in the name of victory? It’s patriotism, it’s pride – and not the kind that comes before a fall but the kind that helps a nation recover. The kind of pride that brought us out of the Great Depression and led us to victory in World War II. The kind of pride that brought South Africa out of apartheid. The kind of pride that separated these United States from a tyrannical government. I believe, and I’ve said it before, that we, as a nation, have lost touch with this pride. Many Americans are no longer proud to be Americans. Many new people to the nation don’t understand what it means to be an American. And the lifelong citizens are dividing into the camps whose pride is based on

This is another recipe that can be easily altered to fit whatever theme or flavor you like. One of the very reasons that trifles are my favorite dessert to make. The other reason being that they are delicious! Prepare 1 cake according to recipe, and allow to cool. Once cake is cooled, cut into small chunks. If you want to be extra creative, you could even swirl some food coloring through your cake to make it patriotic all on its own! (This has to be done to batter before cake is baked.) While cake is cooling, you can prepare your vanilla pudding and whipped topping. 1 'family size' box of pudding is usually enough for a standard size trifle, along with 1 recipe of whipped cream. For easy whipped cream, whisk together 1 cup of heavy whipping cream with 1/2 teaspoon vanilla and 2 tablespoons of sugar. In a stand mixer, it usually

takes about 5 minutes on medium speed to reach perfection (soft peaks that resemble sand dunes.) If you are short on time, you could always use Cool Whip and a store-bought cake. Another note to add is that this recipe could easily be made in a reduced fat version with angel food cake and low fat sugar free pudding and cool whip. Still yummy! As always with trifles, layer to your hearts' content. One small tip though, if you place a layer of pudding on top of berries, it will run through into all those little berry crevices. If you don't prefer this, whipped cream is usually thicker and creates somewhat of a 'berry barrier.' Go ahead and throw that term out to your husband or kids while you're layering your trifle. I can guarantee one of three results. Either an eye-roll, a laugh, or a look of pure amazement of your baking knowledge will follow. Sometimes I get all three! Once trifle is complete,

opera House Cinema series to screen “Bears” Contributed Article 1891 Fredonia Opera House
The 1891 Fredonia Opera House Cinema Series will screen the Disneynature fi lm “Bears” on Sat., June 28, and Tuesday, July 1, at 7:30 p.m. In an epic story of breathtaking scale, Disneynature’s new adventure “Bears” showcases a year in the life of a bear family as two impressionable young cubs are taught life’s most important lessons. Set against a majestic Alaskan backdrop teeming with life, their journey begins as winter comes to an end and the bears emerge from hibernation to face the bitter cold. The world outside is exciting-but risky-as the cubs’ playful descent down the mountain carries with it a looming threat of avalanches. As the season changes from spring to summer, the brown bears must work hard to find food, while staying safe from rival male bears and predators, including an ever-present wolf pack. “Bears” captures the fast-moving action and suspense of life in one of the planet’s last great wildernesses-Alaska! Claudia Puig, in USA Today, calls the film “an enjoyable and visually stunning romp through the scenic Alaskan wilderness.” Sandy Angulo Chen, in the Washington Post, calls it “a story of triumph and family.” Mi-

You also probably aren’t human. There’s an elemental appeal to watching these animals hunt and play in the Alaskan wilderness, and the Disneynature team has mastered the art of capturing it.” Rated G, “Bears” runs 77 minutes. The Opera House Cinema Series is sponsored by Lake Shore Savings Bank. Tickets are avail-
able at the door for $7 (adults), $6.50 (seniors & Opera House members) and $5 (students) the night of each screening. A book of ten movie passes is available for $60 at the door or online at www.fredopera.org. For more information, call the Opera House Box Office at 716-6791891.

to assist families, such as childcare centers, mediation programs, and legal assistance programs. In Chautauqua County, the Hon. Judge Judith Claire is the only regular Family Court judge available to hear thousands of cases.

Too many families are put in a position where they cannot move forward with their lives and make decisions about their future and the future of their children. Although Chautauqua County’s Family Court is the third busiest in the Eighth Judicial District, the county still has only one full-time family court judge to handle thousands of cases,” said Senator Young.

In Chautauqua County, petitions must be signed by either 350 registered voters enrolled in the party being petitioned, or by 1.75 percent of active enrolled voters of the party, whichever is less. Typically, Chautauqua County’s family court caseload is around 4,000 cases per year, but last year grew to approximately 9,000 cases. The dramatic increase resulted in a family court judge from Erie County having to help with the caseload in Chautauqua County two days every week. In addition, the abundance of work facing local City Court judges and Supreme Court justices has meant that they are not readily available to act as family court judges when needed. “There is a tremendous need for an additional judge to relieve the backlog we have in the county, and this new judgeship will have a significant positive impact on county residents going through the court system. I look forward to this agreement being signed into law so a new judge can get to work serving families in Chautauqua County in 2015,” said Senator Young.

Former Cliffstar Headquarters Gifted To Fredonia
Contributed Article Fredonia
The State University of New York at Fredonia announced today that a donation has been made to the Fredonia College Foundation which will greatly enhance the university’s appeal to potential Start-Up NY entrepreneurs. The foundation has been gifted the 25,000-squarefoot office building that served as headquarters for the Cliffstar Corporation prior to its sale to The Cott Corporation in 2010. The facility, a gift of the Star Family, was formally appraised in late 2013 as having a value of $1.65 million. The two-story office building is located at 60-62 Franklin Ave., in Dunkirk, N.Y. It is approximately 18 years old, and its adjacent parking lot accommodates 100 cars. It will be used to assist in recruiting one or more businesses to the community through the state’s new Start-Up NY economic development initiative. “We are very pleased to be able to accept this significant
gift on behalf of the university,” said Fredonia College Foundation Executive Director David Tiffany. “This gives our region an additional asset that will be far more appealing to an existing, relatively mature business than what we currently offer typical, true start-up entrepreneurs within Fredonia’s Technology Incubator. It also provides yet another opportunity for students to gain internships and post-graduate employment, and it provides the potential employer with a rare opportunity to align itself and its workforce with one of the top public universities in the northeast.” Fredonia’s Vice President for Economic Development and Engagement Kevin Kearns, who oversees both the incubator and the campus’ role within the Start-Up NY initiative, echoed Dr. Tiffany’s sentiments. “This facility should benefit both the Chautauqua region and the Fredonia campus,” Dr. Kearns said. “The synergies this could provide for our community — be they existing businesses, Fredonia students
and faculty, or average, taxpaying residents — could be substantial. We believe this will draw more people to the county — especially Fredonia alumni who might be interested in returning to the area — which ultimately means more jobs will be created, and more money will be spent right here in the community.” To be eligible for the StartUp NY program, a business must either be a new company in New York State; an out-of-state company that is relocating to New York; or, an expansion of a company that already has employees in New York and is capable of demonstrating that it is creating new jobs, as opposed to moving existing jobs from elsewhere in the state. New companies cannot be in direct competition with existing area businesses, and those in the retail, wholesale, restaurant and hospitality industries, as well as a variety of service-based professions are also ineligible. “The timing of this opportunity is also excellent, as the recent closure of some larger area employers has
presented potential Start-Up NY candidates with an excellent pool of skilled, trainable and available workers right here in the community,” Dr. Kearns added. “We’re hopeful this will help curb this recent trend and bring some positive economic activity to the region. The program will also expand internship opportunities for students and build stronger relationships between the academic programs on campus and the businesses in the region.” Stanley Star co-founded the Cliffstar Corporation in 1970, serving as its chairman until its sale to the Cott Corporation in 2010. Cliffstar grew to become the largest private-label producer of apple juice, grape juice, cranberry juice, and juiceblends in North America. It operated 11 facilities in the U.S., including five bottling and distribution operations, three fruit processing facilities, two fruit receiving stations and one storage facility, and had approximately 1,200 employees at the time of its sale in 2010. This is the second major contribution which the
Stars have made to the foundation and Fredonia’s campus. During the spring of 2013, they supported the four-day residency and concert of Metropolitan Opera Soprano Dawn Upshaw and her long-time accompanist, Gilbert Kalish. This sponsorship was funded with a gift of $40,000 and provided students within the School of Music with a once-in-a-lifetime experience to learn from two of the most talented professionals in their industry. “I deeply appreciate the support we have received from Stanley and Elizabeth Star,” added Fredonia President Virginia S. Horvath. “They have shown a true belief in Fredonia’s mission, its leadership, and most importantly, its students. Through such generosity, all Fredonians have the best opportunities to become skilled, connected, creative, and responsible global citizens and professionals. On behalf of the 5,400 students at Fredonia and the faculty and staff who work with them, I thank the Star Family for this significant support.”

Willowfest At Willow Creek Winery
By Matt Wisniewski Contributing Writer
Willow Creek Winery has quite the season of music lined up. Last weekend's Buffalove Festival went off without a hitch and the Winery is currently gearing up for the 14th annual Willowfest, an event that has expanded significantly since its inception. The event will be held June 27 and 28 on the Willow Creek Winery property. Originally a one day event held for winery owner, Doug Metzger, the festival has since expanded into a two day festival that features live music, great wines, craft vendors, food vendors, rides for the kids and elaborate fireworks to end each evening. Some acts include Terry Buchwald, who has dedicated a career to recreating the music and performance of Elvis Presley. Buchwald is no stranger to the Willow Creek Win-
ery stage and patrons will surely be anticipating his set at Willowfest this year. He's doing a set as "The King" on Friday, immediately following a Fireman’s Hose Race.
Saturday night will be headlined by local favorite Sean Patrick McGraw. This will be Sean’s second visit to the Willow Creek stage, after opening for American country group, Parmalee on May 30. A Dunkirk,
CHAUTAUQUA STAR FRIDAY, JUNE 27, 2014
NY native Sean has been hitting the country music scene, opening for other popular country groups including Toby Keith. Sean also wrote Montgomery Gentry’s hit song “My So Called Life”. Earlier in the day on Saturday you can check out Imortal, playing classic rock hits and Western, NY favorite, Black Widow. Traditionally, Willowfest has a bigger turnout that any other festival that takes place at Willow Creek Winery. It is certainly one of the longer-running events to take place on their property and over the years, the event (even more than others at the Winery) has developed a reputation of having a top-notch fireworks display, great music, and a welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere. They say, "come as a stranger, leave as a friend." For more information please contact Willow Creek Winery at (716) 934-9463. Willow Creek Winery is located at 2627 Chapin Rd. Silver Creek, NY.
Sizzling Summer In Dunkirk, continued from pg 1 Prizes will be awarded to regatta participants based on age categories and the size of the homemade floatation device. The seventh annual Wreck and Roll Festival will also feature a "kids zone" with games and activities for children of all ages, food vendors, a beer tent and the live musical performance by "Hard Days Night" expected to draw a very large crowd. "Hard Days Night, a truly incredible tribute band from Ohio who play the music of The Beatles, should be a big draw," said Tim Gornikiewicz, the City of Dunkirk's recreation program coordinator. "Memorial Park should
be packed for their performance." The Wreck and Roll Festival will also feature Maximum Force Wrestling, a professional wrestling federation that will have various grapplers do battle in the squared circle and allow fans to meet with WWE Hall of Fame "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan in between bouts. "There is a lot of buzz about the pro wrestling event," said Gornikiewicz. "People who have reached out to us are pretty excited about that, so we'll give it a try and see what the reaction is and what kind of turnout we get for that type of entertainment." Meanwhile, the popu-
lar Music on the Pier summer concert series, which began three weeks ago, continues through August 28. Live musical entertainment remains the backbone of the free concerts, which run from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at the Dunkirk Pier on Central Avenue. In addition to the free tunes, vendors will be selling various food and beverage items to concert goers who are looking to enjoy dinner, have a few drinks and munch on a snack. "Music on the Pier is usually packed every Thursday night and we expect that trend to continue this summer," said Gornikiewicz. "People can't wait to get outside and enjoy themselves
once the weather gets really nice. Obviously weather plays a huge factor in what the size of the crowd is depending on the amount of rainfall we may get or is forecasted, but we remain hopeful that the sun will be shining and everyone can enjoy the free music." Upcoming performances include concerts by "Dirty Deeds" (AC/DC cover band) on July 3; "The Barking Spiders" on July 17; "Nerds Gone Wild" on July 31; "Strictly Hip" on August 7; and "Who Are You" (The Who tribute band) on August 14. "We really do try and mix things up and make sure that from one week to the next
a different genre is exposed so that there really is something for everyone no matter what your specific musical tastes may be," said Gornikiewicz. The final community celebration of the summer season will take place on Saturday, September 13 when the "Dunkirk Heritage Festival" takes place from noon until 7 p.m. A variety of ethnic foods, crafts and musical entertainment will help attendees celebrate the many heritages that make Dunkirk such a unique place to live and visit. City officials remind area residents that the "Beach Bash Festival" originally scheduled for August 3 had to be
cancelled because of safety concerns due to numerous construction vehicles involved with the ongoing construction project that is establishing a new seawall on Lakefront Boulevard in Dunkirk. For more information about events scheduled to take place this summer in the City of Dunkirk, visit www. visitdunkirk.com or call (716) 366-9876. "We are kid friendly and we want to see families become engaged and enjoy themselves and get involved," said Gornikiewicz. "People of all ages are invited to attend and enjoy the summertime weather while they can."

Keeping the Faith
the weekly word DEMOnIC THInkIng
family church Rev. Michael Lokietek Family Church Fredonia fcfredonia.org
“Dear Pastor, I am confused about who I should pray to. I’ve heard prayers to God, angels, Jesus, and saints. Can you help me?" I am sure that there are many dear Christians who share your confusion. There are religions and ideologies that teach us to pray in various ways as well as who and how to address our prayers to different people or spiritual beings. We are grateful that the authority on prayer, God Himself, has addressed this issue in His Word. If we look to the Bible we will see that we are to pray to one Person only…God the Father. Jesus Himself, in preparing His disciples for His leaving, declared in the Gospel of John, 16:23, "And in that day you will ask Me nothing. Most assuredly, I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in My name He will give you.” When Jesus said “that day”, He was referring to the time after His resurrection. We
F R E D O N I A
Rev. Tim Stahlman Family Church Jamestown fcjamestown.org
are now living in that day! Notice that when Jesus said, “You are not to ask me anything” Jesus was saying that we are not even to pray to Him! He tells us that all prayers should be addressed to God the Father, in the Name of Jesus. He does this because it is through Jesus’ sacrifice that we are able to go to God the Father. So anything that we would ask God the Father for in prayer, we can access through Jesus Name! In the Book of Acts we can find some interesting observations to support praying to God the Father in Jesus’ Name. All the Christians and Apostles prayed to God the Father (Acts 4:2432, 12:5). There are no scripture references of
any prayers addressed any other way. While some religions may teach that we can pray to saints for special blessings or favors, this practice is not supported in the scriptures. The Apostle Peter is considered one of the greatest saints ever, yet we read in Acts 10:26 that someone wanted to pray to Peter. He strictly forbade the man from bowing down and praying to him by saying, “Stand up; I myself am also a man.” So you can see that these scripture clearly indicate that we are to address all prayers to God the Father in Jesus’ name. We are not to pray to angels, departed saints, or even directly to Jesus.
got news?
Everybody, even Christians, can easily fall into destruction if they do not discipline the mind. The mind is the piece of real estate in which the devil has the most interest. It is the key to a man's lifestyle. It is the throttle to his decisions. It is the door to his ruin. The Bible clearly teaches us that Satan himself wants to do our thinking for us. He is the thrower of fl aming darts hoping to start a fi re in our minds. He is always there with his hosts suggesting a different plan than God. A person can fi nd himself under the influence of godly thinking one minute, and then, only moments later in weakness, he can fi nd himself planning a devilish plot. It happened in the Bible with some of the greatest men that ever lived. The Apostle Peter is a prime example. In Matthew chapter
16, Peter and the other disciples were asked by Jesus to render an opinion of the Son of Man. In verse 13, Jesus asks them, "Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?" Peter eventually replies, "You are the Christ, the Son of the Living God." Jesus marvels over Peter's response and says to him in verse 17, "Blessed are you Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father which is in heaven." God revealed to Peter that Jesus was indeed God in the flesh. Peter's thoughts were fi lled with the supremacy of this God-man named Jesus. Peter's mind was awakened to the presence of "Immanuel", God with us. Peter's heart and mind were aglow with the fact that this was not "the carpenter", the "son of Mary", or "just a prophet." He realized for the fi rst time that he had been casting nets with God Himself. Peter's success was short lived for in the very same conversation he gave his mind over to the devil. Jesus began to describe His own death and resurrection. Peter began to focus on the death of his Master, and not the life of his Master.
In verse 22, Peter took Jesus aside and rebuked Him saying, "This shall not happen to you." Peter was rebuking God in the flesh; he was correcting perfection. Jesus simply looked at Peter and said, "Get behind me Satan...you savor the things of man and not the things of God." In the matter of a single conversation Peter went from being inspired by God to being accused of being the devil himself. Jesus knew that Peter was not indeed Satan; but He knew that the devil was doing Peter's thinking for him. God's plan was to raise Jesus from the dead; but all Peter could think about was death. God wanted to grant all men eternal life; but all Peter could think about was the cruelty of the cross. This is what people are doing today: They allow their minds to convince them that the price is greater than the reward. Yes, it will cost you your own will to follow Christ. But the rewards are greater than the price. There is great freedom in knowing and living as the personal property of a wonderful Almighty Savior God. We must not allow our minds to forget.

As an ongoing effort to protect aquatic environments that house many species of consumable fi sh, sustainable fi shing has become a growing trend. Fishers worldwide remove more than 170 billion pounds of wildlife from the sea each year; marking the importance of safe practices.

Don’t Put Saving For Retirement On The Back Burner Contributed Article Statepoint
Most Americans understand the importance of saving for retirement but unfortunately, not everyone’s concerns translate to action. While 93 percent of working Americans know they should be contributing to their retirement, only 72 percent are actually doing so, according to the results of Capital One ShareBuilder’s Financial Freedom Survey (accessible at http://tinyurl.com/ n9zvksh). The same study found that while nearly three-fifths of respondents plan to retire by age 65, almost the same amount of people fear they’ll never save enough for retirement. “Unfortunately, saving for the future is often put on the back-burner for what may seem like more pressing financial priorities, such as paying for children’s college education,” says Dan Greenshields, president of Capital One ShareBuilder, Inc. “Today more than ever before,

22 Auto tips And tRiCKs
should you Buy Back your totaled Car?
Contributed Article Auto Trader
If your car is in an accident and the insurance company believes that the cost to repair the car exceeds the real value of the car, they may declare your vehicle to be a total loss. Usually the next step is that they will take your totaled car and give you a cash payout rather than fi x it. But it's important to understand that the way an insurance company evaluates a wrecked car may be very different from how its owner evaluates it. In other words, every car labeled a total loss by an insurance company is not beyond repair. If your totaled car is still drivable or can be repaired, does it make sense to buy the car from the insurance company, or fi x it and keep driving it? The one-size-fits-all answer is "probably not." In a few specific cases, however, it may make some sense.
this an absolute cost versus a numbered value. If the cost of repairs is more than 60 percent or so of the restored value of an older car, the insurance company might declare it totaled. It depends on the age, mileage and realworld value of the car.

Although you may not see eye to eye with an insurance company as to whether a car is a total loss, there are some other considerations when deciding whether or not to try to keep it: • Any incident severe enough for an insurance company to declare a car a total loss may well cause undetected damage lurking beneath the sheet metal. Hidden damage discovered once repairs begin could run up costs well beyond the car's value.

THIS
Brocton Chautauqua County has so many great places to see and things to do. Each city, village and town has a story, and we’ve set out to tell that story. We’ll go through the county, place by place, for the next few months. Check back every week for the next edition of “This Great County”.
By Matt Wisniewski Contributing Writer
Brocton, which is situated between Fredonia and Westfield on Route 20, has always been a standout location in Chautauqua County. Aside from housing nearly 1,500 residents year-round and being known for possessing a positive community atmosphere, the village, like so many places in Chautauqua County, has a history worth telling. In 1913, the famous Brocton arches were erected. These two large, criss-crossed beams, met at the center of the village to form the most unique and immediately striking detail of Brocton. These arches were (at the least) unmissable to community members and (more likely) helped to develop an identity for the village and the residents. So when Brocton started fundraising, with the objective of replacing the arches for the one-hundred year
OPEN HOUSE Tuesday, August 19th 4-8pm
anniversary of their existence, its no wonder that they received and outpouring of support from the community. "The original arches stood for 100 years," said David Hazelton, the Deputy Mayor of Brocton. "We got a large amount of support from community members, past and present, for the reconstruction of the arches." The arches were replaced in 2013 and stand today as one of the only double-arches in the United States. Technically located within the town of Portland, modern-day Brocton is relevant to Chautauqua County for a number reasons. For starters, it wouldn't be overly difficult to catch a bus down Route 20, through Brocton, to
the infamous Lakeview Shock Incarceration Correctional Facility. While this Prison doesn't sit directly in the village, perhaps the nearby existence of the Correctional Facility serves as a looming warning for the youth of the village to "play it straight." Another great piece of living history that exists in the village of Brocton is the Ahira Hall Memorial Library. The library technically belongs to the town of Portland, however the building is located in the village of Brocton. Named after Ahira Hall, who settled in Brocton after his service in the War of 1812, The Memorial Library offers summer events like a writer's workshop, a Young Children's Program,
and AHML's Book Club ("new members encouraged.") David Hazelton says that Brocton is proud to have "events in the park that the library puts on on. On Thursday evenings there is music in the park, and they even offer a reading program... for the youngsters." Brocton, known for its arches, is a community that accommodates for both young and old. Star apartments offers subsidized housing for old-timers and there are many young workers in the village or commuting to local jobs. With a unique physical detail, workers of all ages, and a firm grasp of its history, Brocton remains a standout village in the Chautauqua region.

1 BALL WIFFLE BALL TOuRnAMEnT RAISES AWAREnESS, MOnEY FOR A CAuSE Social Media
By Stefan Gestwicki Star Sports Editor
Just about everything went perfectly at the 1 Ball Tournament For Testicular Cancer in Frewsburg on Saturday. There were 20 teams and throngs of spectators gathered at Carroll Town Park to help raise awareness and funds to battle testicular cancer through the power and fun of a WIFFLE ball tournament. “We can fit 24 teams but I’m very excited about 20 teams,” tournament chairman and cancer survivor Ben Lindquist said. “We had 16 last year so we’ve had growth. We have at least four or five teams that aren’t here today because they had weddings or other commitments but they’d rather be here than where they’re at. “I bet we have at least 10 returning teams,” he continued. “Returning players is really the thing. Sometimes someone who played last year will split up and form their own team. I know we have our first-place and second-place teams from last year. The exact same teams are back. They’re saying ‘we’ll meet you in the championship game.’ The champions wore their hoodies that say ‘1 Ball Tournament Champions’ on them. They wore them proudly at registration this morning.”

The park was quite a scene. Six fields were set up with five of those being used for bracket play and the sixth being used for a home run derby. “I had five people helping me during setup and we got everything measured and set up,” Lindquist added. “The snow fence was cour-
tesy of Tractor Supply Co. last year. We were able to use most of that from last year. It only took about twoand-a-half hours to set up all the fields and paint the lines and all that.” The tournament raised money through registration fees, sponsorships and raffles to be donated to the Testicu-
lar Cancer Awareness Foundation. The first tournament raised over $4,000 and this year was even bigger. “We got some great raffle donations,” Lindquist noted. “We’re raffl ing off a signed Cody Hodgson jersey that was sent to us by the NHL. Continued on pg 30

I promise that if that happens, I’m done with the NBA. I’ll actually watch college basketball, which I only do during March Madness. There have certainly been rumors of other teams being interested.

Okay, I’ll admit, it’ll be interesting to see where LeBron ends up though part of me will forever root against Miami for killing my love of the NBA. I hope you’re all ready for weeks of non-stop LeBron talk on ESPN and other sports outlets because that’s what we’re going to get.

D i a ry MY FIRST TWO 18S OF THE SEASOn After we tallied the scores, I had improved by five strokes from front to back (51 to 46) to shoot a 97. Considering that my average score at Pinehurst is about a 48, that 97 was to be expected. After Bryan’s nice 47 on the front, he ended up with a 105 because of a season-worst 58 on the back nine. It was hard to watch. Then on Saturday I received a phone call from a co-worker asking me if I’d like to play in a charity tournament on Monday because one of his guys dropped out at the last minute. The tournament was to benefit the Boys and Girls Club of Eden and was at Gowanda Country Club. Hmm….play golf all day or go to the office? That’s a tough choice. Needless to say I played in the tournament. It was my fi rst tournament of the year and actually only my third career scramble. It was a ton of fun, supported a great cause and we got a prime rib dinner out
of the deal. It’s hard to beat that. I had never played Gowanda Country Club before, but I was thoroughly impressed. There were lots of ponds and interesting holes. The greens were quite fi rm, but that’s because they were baking in the 90-degree sun all day. But the course was obviously well maintained and if it was a little closer would defi nitely be somewhere I would go again. While we fi nished at four or five under, the day couldn’t have started worse. I’m not even being dramatic, we literally had to take a drop after all four of us hit unplayable drives. A drop in a scramble. A drop in a scramble. Yes, that bears repeating. We ended with a bogey on that hole and actually bogeyed again on the third or fourth hole we played. A lot of that was my fault. I simply couldn’t hit a drive to save my life even though that’s
probably been my biggest strength this year. It was slightly embarrassing because I was playing with two guys that I have never played with before. Was that the problem? Was I just nervous or simply trying too hard to impress? Well the actual problem was that my backswing was too fast. It’s a problem I’ve noticed I develop when I play more frequently. Perhaps it’s just being too confident. When all is going well it’s because I literally talk out loud to myself and say “Finish you swing. Don’t get lazy. Swing through the ball. Don’t get choppy.” It’s always different things, but it keeps me focused. I wasn’t doing that in this tournament and it’s very possible that I would have played better had I done that. Of course, maybe these guys would have preferred to play with a bad golfer rather than a lunatic that talks to himself on the tee box. But I’m going to continue to do it be-
cause it helps me stay in the zone. Does anyone else have any odd habits on the golf course? Perhaps it’s something superstitious like lucky socks or perhaps it’s something at least slightly more real like taking exactly three practice swings before each shot. I’d love to hear about them and I’ll even write about them in next week’s Golfer’s Diary. I’d also like to repeat to readers that I love coming and covering charity golf tournament. If you’re playing in one or planning one that you’d like to see get some media coverage, please contact me and I’ll try to work it into my schedule. Thank you. And as always, golf is great.

Two teams tied with a 10-under par 62 after playing the 18-hole scramble. The clubhouse used a scorecard tie breaker, which gave the victory to the Retired Iroquois Teachers team of Tom McQuillan, Dave Stepien, Joel Grundy and Frank Payne.

Arena Launches First EduSkate Program
Contributed Article JSBA
For the past month at the Jamestown Savings Bank Arena ( JSBA), fourth graders from Falconer Central School have been participating in the arenas inaugural EduSkate program. Focusing on community enrichment, JSBA partnered with Falconer Central School to integrate the program into the schools physical education curriculum, allowing the students to come for five sessions throughout the month of June. With the help of the Chautauqua Region Community Foundation, the school was awarded grant
money to help make EduSkate possible. Roughly 100 students, which culminated with two separate group sessions, were able to actively participate in the program. Taught by hockey instructor and JSBA Assistant General Manager, Craig Hinderleider, EduSkate nurtures a link between the schools, the fun and fitness of

Listening to them express how impressed they were with themselves will be one of the most memorable things that I will take away,” Hinderleider continues, “Hopefully this program doesn’t only help them developmentally but also mentally as well.” skating type activities, a valuable experience at the same time, have JSBA encourages and the arena. for the kids in building fun.

Best Named SUNYAC Award Of Valor Winner, continued from page 28 It was during this time that Gondek -- while dealing with an academic situation, not a soccer-related one -- finally felt comfortable enough to bring up Prechtl's question. "Coach Prechtl wants to nominate you for the Award of Valor," Gondek said to Best. "Would that interest you?" Josh was speechless. "When coach told me," he said, "I don't know how to react. I was really humbled." The official presentation took place Monday night at a dinner in Syracuse. Everyone
had to be seated by 6 o'clock, which was also the starting time of the World Cup game between the United States and Ghana. Both player and coach had expressed a bit of disappointment in the timing, and they exchanged texts the day before the game. "Josh wanted to know," Gondek said, "what are we going to do about watching the game?" Gondek said he would ask Prechtl if it was OK to set up an iPad at the table. "Greg seemed OK with it," he said. "He told me not to make it too

noticeable." Yet others in the room noticed -- and would stop to watch, too, while moving through the room during dinner. The game had Gondek's attention when he heard his named called to get up and make some comments about Josh. Gondek stood and told the stories about Josh, how he never talked,about his missing arm, and then how they finally got around to the subject. He talked about how Josh had been a significant part of the team, always trying, never asking for
shortcuts. "I wanted people people to know he played a lot for us," Gondek said. "He was not an all-conference player, but not many guys are. But he played a ton of soccer for us ... He was a pretty valuable member of our team." Josh's mom was up next. It wasn't until she saw her name on the dinner program that Maria realized she had to speak, so she only had through dinner to prepare. "I could see during dinner," Josh said, "that it was on her mind." "She started to say something," Gondek
said, remembering what happened when Maria got up to talk, "and then she stopped ... and she couldn't talk." The pause lasted several seconds as Maria fought down her emotion. When she composed herself, she motioned toward her son. "This guy is my hero," she began. "I didn't teach him, he taught me." "I always knew how she felt," Josh said later of listening to his mom speak to a room full of misty athletic administrators, "but to hear her say it in front of all those people, I was
impressed." When it was his turn to speak, Josh tried to be quick. He thanked his parents for everything, especially all the state-to-state trips for travel soccer games. He's thanked Gondek for giving him the chance to play, and he thanked Prechtl for the nominating him for the award. When he was finished thanking everyone, he remembered to be short. There was a soccer game to watch. "I didn't know what else to say," he said, "except 'Go USA!' Maybe that's why we won."

Hasek, modano, Forsberg, Blake Headed For Hall
By Larry Lage AP Sports Writer
Dominik Hasek, Mike Modano, Peter Forsberg and Rob Blake started playing hockey in four different countries as kids. They will enter the Hockey Hall of Fame together. ''This tells me that our game is growing, our game is growing worldwide,'' John Davidson, chairman of the Hockey Hall of Fame selection committee, said Monday. ''When we have a class like this coming into the hall, I think that says a lot about our game and how worldwide it is.'' The four players will be inducted Nov. 17 in Toronto along with former referee Bill McCreary and the late Pat Burns, who will be enshrined posthumously as a coach in the builder category. Hasek, who was known as ''the Dominator,'' won the Vezina Trophy as the NHL's top goaltender six times, tying Bill Durnan's total and trailing Jacques Plante's record by one. He won two Hart Trophies as league MVP in 1997 and 1998 with the Buffalo Sabres, becoming the first to win the award from his position since Plante did it in 1962. Hasek also helped the Czech
Republic win gold at the 1998 Olympics - the first with NHL players - several years after he almost left the world's top league. ''I was thinking about going back to Europe because I was in the minors, playing for the Indianapolis Ice,'' Hasek recalled, referring to the Chicago Blackhawks' affi liate. ''But I got a chance to play in 1992 and it was the best thing that could happen for me because in Buffalo, I got a chance to play.'' The Sabres traded him to Detroit nearly a decade later and he helped the Detroit Red Wings hoist the Stanley Cup in 2002. Hasek becomes the seventh player from that team to be elected to the Hall of Fame as a player and it was led by Hall of Fame coach Scotty Bowman. Hasek was a backup in 2008 when Detroit won another championship. Modano ended his career with his home-state Red Wings after leaving Michigan to play in Canada at the age of 15, a move that seemed to pay off. He fi nished with records for American-born players - 561 goals and 1,374 points - and helped the Dallas Stars win the Cup in 1999 against the Hasek-led Sabres. Modano was drafted No. 1 overall in 1988 by the Minnesota
North Stars after playing juniors with the Prince Albert Raiders in the Western Hockey League. ''It was a tough decision to leave Detroit, to leave home,'' he recalled. ''I thought Canada was the best place to go for competition.'' Canada was home for Blake, who was born in Simcoe, Ontario. He helped his country win it all at the Olympics in 2002, earning a place in the Triple Gold Club that includes only players with a Cup, Olympic and world gold medals. Blake won an NHL title with the Colorado Avalanche in 2001 after winning one Norris Trophy as the league's top defenseman in 1998 while playing for the Los Angeles Kings. Forsberg, a smooth-skating, slick-shooting Swede, is also in the Triple Gold Club. He won two championships in Colorado and helped Sweden win gold at the 2006 Olympics. Philadelphia drafted Forsberg with the No. 6 overall pick in 1991 and traded him to Quebec a year later in a trade for Eric Lindros, and he played one season for the Nordiques
before the franchise moved to Colorado. He had a great career, but it was stunted by several injuries. Burns, who coached the New Jersey Devils to the 2003 Stanley Cup title, died of cancer at 58 in 2010. The police officer-turned-hockey coach won the Adams Trophy as the NHL's top coach with three teams: Toronto, Montreal and Boston. ''It's a very emotional day for the Burns family, I can tell you that, and I think it's a great
day,'' said his wife, Lynn. McCreary was an official for nearly 2,000 games, including 282 playoff games, from 1984 until he worked his last game on April 2, 2011. He also was an official in the 1998 and 2002 Olympic finals. Brendan Shanahan, Chris Chelios, Scott Niedermayer, Geraldine Heaney and the late Fred Shero were inducted last year. Among eligible players who have not been picked for induction are Lindros, the 1995 NHL MVP and six-time All-Star, and Mark Recchi, a seventime All-Star who won three Cups with three teams.

Suarez Dilemma: FIFA Opens Case On Bite Incident
By Graham Dunbar AP Sports Writer
Luis Suarez could become just as awkward for football's international organizers to handle as he has been for rival teams at the World Cup. The Uruguay forward should find out by late Thursday what punishment he will serve for allegedly biting into the left shoulder of Italy defender Giorgio Chiellini in a crucial groupstage game. ''We have to resolve it either today or tomorrow,'' FIFA disciplinary panel member Martin Hong told reporters Wednesday. ''It's our duty to see justice done.'' ''We have it deal with it before the next game,'' the Hong Kong official said, referring to Uruguay's match Saturday against Colombia in the Round of 16 at Maracana Stadium. Suarez has hit a raw nerve at a tournament characterized by a high quality of football and entertainment. The consequences of his bite - just before Uruguay scored the clinching goal to eliminate the four-time champion Italians - will now test FIFA president Sepp Blatter's oftenstated commitment to ''fair play, discipline, respect.'' Blatter, who was in the crowd for the Uruguay-Italy match at Natal, has previously pledged a zero tolerance for the darker side of the game. Many are questioning where that leaves a player like Suarez, who has a history of disciplinary problems including separate bans of seven and 10 matches for bit-

ing opponents in the Netherlands and England. The star Liverpool striker also faces losing income and reputation, with one sponsor reconsidering its recent deal with him. In the early hours of Wednesday, FIFA announced it had opened a disciplinary case against Suarez. The case will now be managed by Swiss lawyer, Claudio Sulser, chairman of the FIFA disciplinary committee. A former international forward himself, Sulser has worked for four years at FIFA, first as head of its ethics court and now the disciplinary committee. Sulser can choose to judge the obvious offense within the scale of typical red-card incidents: A three-match ban may then be appropri-

ate, banishing Suarez at least until the World Cup final should Uruguay advance through the knockout rounds. There's scope for a more severe sanction: under the guidelines a ban of up to 24 international matches could be applied. FIFA can also choose to ban Suarez for a period of time, to a maximum of two years, likely covering all football and not just Uruguay duty. That could affect a widely speculated transfer to Barcelona or Real Madrid. Suarez and the Uruguay football federation had until 5 p.m. local time (4 p.m. EDT/2000 GMT) to present a documented case for the defense, though he is unlikely to be called to Rio de Janeiro to meet with Sulser's panel.
Uruguay federation board member Alejandro Balbi, who is Suarez's lawyer, defended the player on Wednesday. ''This happened because there have been campaigns launched by the media in England and Italy,'' Balbi told Uruguayan radio Sport 890 from Brazil. FIFA stated it would call on video evidence, which surely will have pleased Blatter, a proponent of using video evidence in cases which on-field officials missed. ''Video evidence can be used for serious breaches of the principle of fair play such as brawling, spitting at opponents, verbal insults and racist slurs, or for incorrectly awarded red or yellow cards,'' he wrote in February. Images of Chiellini pulling aside the sleeve of his
Azzurri shirt on the field to show the referee the marks on his shoulder were broadcast around the world. FIFA also has access to footage from other angles and other parts of the field. Completing the case ahead of Saturday's match could be complicated if Suarez appeals any ban. That challenge could go direct to the Court of Arbitration for Sport in Switzerland for an urgent and binding ruling. However, one option open to FIFA and Sulser to avoid that scenario is that a suspension of ''fewer than three matches or of up to two months'' cannot be appealed, according to FIFA rules. Already, one of Suarez's sponsors said it was ''reviewing our relationship with him.'' ''We will not tolerate unsporting behavior,'' 888poker said in a Twitter message. Last month, the firm announced a global endorsement contract with Suarez, a poker enthusiast, after he was voted the Premier League's best player by his peers and football writers. Adidas, which also has Suarez as a client and is FIFA's longest standing World Cup sponsor, said it was monitoring the case. Meanwhile, Suarez was criticized by a Uruguay football great Alcides Ghiggia, the last survivor of the team which defeated Brazil to win the 1950 World Cup. Suarez ''plays well but he has done things that are not normal for a player nor for a soccer game,'' Ghiggia told The AP. ''I think FIFA can sanction him.''

Gordon Content With 2nd Place Finish At Sonoma
By Jenna Fryer AP Auto Racing Writer
There's no better driver at Sonoma Raceway than Jeff Gordon, and for more than a decade he was head of the class on road courses. He won five times at Sonoma, and grabbed another four wins at Watkins Glen. But Gordon's last win on a road course was 2006. The rest of the field has caught up and Gordon is no longer considered unbeatable. Yet there he was on Sunday, charging through the field from the 15th position - he was the highest qualifying Hendrick Motorsports driver - to give himself a shot at a sixth Sonoma victory. But he made one small error while chasing down Carl Edwards, so it took him longer to get to the leader than expected. When he finally made it to Edwards' bumper in the final turn of the 10-turn course, Gordon declined to move Edwards out of his way. The four-time champion let Edwards
go, and Edwards sailed off to his first career road course victory. Gordon settled for second, his third runnerup finish this season. ''It's not worth wrecking the guy because, hey, if you're racing the guy and you get a couple runs on him, he blocks you here and he blocks you there and you're faster, then you might not give an inch,'' Gordon said. ''You might go in there and you might use the bumper. But I really had just caught him.'' So Gordon felt his best bet was to try to force Edwards into making a mistake that Gordon would seize. Edwards held it together and shook Gordon loose. During the Victory Lane celebration, Gordon came by to congratulate the winner. The move touched Edwards. ''I'm a fan of this sport and I grew up watching Jeff Gordon go through those s's and watching how he drove his car,'' Edwards said. ''So to be able to hold him off like that means a lot. I'm glad
somebody was born when I won my first championship or was watching me as a kid,'' Gordon said. ''I love racing here. I love being competitive and leading the points and having a shot at winning races, at 22 years into my Cup career. We're having fun.'' He should be: With 10 races remaining to set the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship field, Gordon has a 20-point lead over teammate Jimmie Johnson in the points standings. He has the one win needed to lock him into the 16-driver Chase field.

the fact that the father of two young children has the luxury to choose when he wants to get off the road and become a family man. And part of that is driven by an aching back that has bothered him for years. It flared up again in May before the CocaCola 600, and Gordon is receiving regular treatment. He insists he feels fine, though, and the flight from North Carolina to San Francisco was more stressful on his back than the three-plus hours in a race car. Sure, there's going to come a day when Gordon decides he's done with racing. But based on his current performance, it's not anytime soon. ''It's certainly the most consistent, greatest cars that I've had going week in and week out,'' he said. ''To have cars that are capable of either winning or running up front, I'm very confident in what I'm getting behind the wheel of every weekend. The cars are just really, really good, and that's making a lot of fun for me.''
