Tremendous effort has been put forth by numerous stakeholders from throughout Chautauqua County as progress continues to be made with the branding of the region as a premiere destination for tourists, specifically travelers who embrace the growing trend of “learning while on vacation.” What was launched five years ago by the Chautauqua County Visitors Bureau as an aggressive campaign to increase awareness of the area has made significant progress since the brand, logo and website redesign was formally announced in 2008. “Our focus around us calling Chautauqua ‘The World’s Learning Center’ has helped spread the word to visitors that Chautauqua County is an ideal destination for leisure learning in what many believe is the ultimate vacation atmosphere,” says Andrew Nixon, executive director of the Chautauqua County Visitors Bureau. “There are many people who desire different types of learning vacations because this ‘learning while on vacation’ concept continues to be a hot trend.” The idea of being able to engage your mind, your body and

cessfully removed from the lake near Bemus Creek and the mouth of the Chadakoin River. Water chestnut is a rooted, aquatic annual plant that can reach up to 15 feet in length and has a rosette of floating leaves, which are green, glossy, and triangular with toothed edges. The water chestnut can produce up to 15 nutlets per a season and each individual nutlet has the potential to produce up to 5 individual plants. Each of these individual plants can then produce an additional 15 nutlets, creating a total of 75 nutlets annually. Once established, water chestnuts can form dense floating mats that can negatively impact the aquatic ecosystem and recreational activities on the lake. “The ability of water chestnuts to rapidly spread poses a potential threat to Chautauqua Lake,” said

Diers. “In order to prevent the plants from spreading we need to ensure they are not left to grow and are properly eradicated.” Individuals interested in participating in the mass search should report to the Stow Ferry Park where they will be given a short presentation on the water chestnut before being assigned to a zone. Volunteers should also call the watershed hotline at (716) 363-4499, (716) 753-4499, or (716) 661-7499 for more information. In addition, anyone who fi nds this invasive species should contact Jeff Diers at (716) 661-8915 or call the watershed hotline and leave their name, phone number, and the location of the sighting. If spotted, please do not remove these plants as experts need to analyze their location and properly remove them.

Day has been scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 14 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Chautauqua County Department of Public Facilities Building on 454 North Work Street in Falconer. Both collection events are sponsored by the New York Department of Environmental Conservation and Storer’s Container Services.

Chautauqua County Humane Society Pet of the Week

Pet of the Week

This week we are featuring “Missy Girl” and “Yul”. Missy Girl is a sweet little 5 year old terrier mix. She loves to get attention, but is not a big fan of being picked up. Due to this, she would do best in a home with no little kids. Yul is a sweetheart of a guy. He is 3 years old and is the friendliest cat you will ever meet. He came to us with an issue that had him bald over most of his body, but his coat has grown in and he sure would love to have a family of his own. If either of these sounds like the pet for you, please stop by the Strunk Road Adoption Center and meet them. They are ready for their 2nd chance at a great life.

She helps to execute the wedding schedule which includes coordinating photography opportunities, keeping track of the bridal party and making announcements for activities such as dinner, the bridal dance and throwing of the garter. The mistress also attends to guests and their needs, allowing the bride and groom to enjoy their celebration instead of getting involved in guest drama. The mistress has the authority to deal with intoxicated guests that could ruin the party, diffuse any arguments among bickering relatives and to ask unwanted guests to leave. The bride may even require her help calming unhappy bridesmaids, anxious parents or even bridezilla herself. At the end of the night, the mistress takes care of all the closing details so that the bride and groom can enjoy their honeymoon without worry. She performs duties such as gathering disposable cameras, getting presents and cards to the couple’s home, and paying service providers such as the caterer and

bartenders. She makes sure any intoxicated guests do not drive while drunk, the cake top gets into the freezer, and flowers are refrigerated. Whatever help the bride and groom may need to have a happy wedding day, the mistress of ceremonies is there to deliver. The critical role that a mistress of ceremonies plays in a wedding party demonstrates how important it is to have the right person for the job. While a close friend or relative is ideal, that person is technically “working” during the wedding and won’t have much time to party with the rest of the gang. The person must be comfortable speaking in front of crowds and into a microphone and have a good speaking voice. A detail oriented individual that can follow a schedule is also desirable. Since they will have to direct large groups of people, they should be comfortable taking charge, keeping people on task and interrupting when necessary to maintain the bride’s tight schedule. But most importantly, the mistress of ceremonies must be an individual that the bride and groom can trust and confide in. They must feel confident that this person will act in their

best interests and take care of their families, carry out their plans and help make their wedding a success without needing their involvement every minute of the party. The biggest wedding gift that the mistress can give to the bride and groom is a well pulled off party that everyone enjoys. So if asked to be a mistress

of ceremonies for someone’s wedding this summer, don’t feel slighted and consider it an honor to hold such a crucial role. And if planning your own wedding, consider having a mistress of ceremonies in your wedding party so that you can enjoy one of the biggest events of your life without worry, your wedding day.

together as a nation can come out of bad circumstances? The truth is that while God is not the author of evil, He promises that He can take bad things and turn them around for our good. Romans 8:28 tells us “…that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.” The Bible gives the history of Joseph who was sold into slavery by his jealous brothers. After reaching position in his Egyptian master’s house, he was falsely accused by his master’s wife and imprisoned. Years later, after Joseph’s release and promotion,

his family reunited in forgiveness. Joseph assured his brothers that what ever evil they had done to him, God had turned it around so that he could save many of his home-land from a great famine (Genesis 50:20). When we know and trust in the Lord, we can be assured of His presence through sorrow and trials. Even if we cannot understand, we must trust that God is there, always interceding on our behalf, working to turn what was meant for tragedy into an opportunity for triumph!

SENIOR SECTION Opera House Cinema Series to Screen “The Great Gatsby” Contributed Article 1891 Fredonia Opera House

“The Great Gatsby,” Baz Luhrmann’s lavish adapta-

tion of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel, is the next featured ﬁ lm in the Fredonia Opera House Cinema Series. It will be screened on Sat., July 13, and Tues., July 16,

at 7:30 p.m. “The Great Gatsby” follows would-be writer Nick Carraway (Tobey Maguire) as he leaves the Midwest and comes to New York City in the spring of 1922, an era of loosening morals, glittering jazz and bootleg kings. Chasing his own American Dream, Nick lands next door to a mysterious, party-giving millionaire, Jay Gatsby (Leonardo DiCaprio), and across the bay from his cousin, Daisy, and her philandering, blue-blood husband, Tom Buchanan.

It is thus that Nick is drawn into the captivating world of the super-rich, their illusions, loves and deceits. As Nick bears witness, within and without the world he inhabits, he pens a tale of impossible love, incorruptible dreams and highoctane tragedy, that holds a mirror to our own modern times and struggles. Rick Groen, in the Toronto Globe & Mail, calls the fi lm “a terrific adaptation that succeeds not only as a work of cinema but also, wonderfully, as proof of the novel’s greatness.” Richard Roeper calls it “the best attempt yet to capture the essence of the novel.” A.O. Scott, in the New York Times, calls it a “lavishly theatrical celebration of the emotional and material extravagance that Fitzgerald surveyed with fascinated ambivalence.” Lou Lumenick, in the New York Post, says the fi lm “stands out like a beacon in a sea of silly blockbusters.” Rated PG-13 for some violent images, sexual content, smoking, partying and brief language, “The Great Gatsby” runs 143 minutes. The Opera House Cinema Series is sponsored by Lake Shore Savings Bank. Tickets are available 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 716-679-1891. The Series continues with “Before Midnight” on July 27 and 30. Chautauqua County’s only performing arts center presenting its own programming year-round, the 1891 Fredonia Opera House is a member-supported not-forproﬁt organization located in Village Hall in downtown Fredonia.

all Hands on Deck Gallery Debuts to Boost Support for local Skate park and arts community By Katherine Coleman Contributing Writer

In order for change and progress to take place, sometimes it is necessary to push the community by raising awareness. A strong alliance of skateboarders and artists in Jamestown triggered the All Hands on Deck gallery and silent auction, formed by the Active Artists’ Alliance (AAA), Jamestown Skate Products ( JSP) and the Arts Council for Chautauqua County. Debuting on June 28, the doors were opened up to the public at the 3rd on 3rd gallery in the historic Reg. Lenna Civic Center located in downtown Jamestown. Jamestown Skate Products allowed for the interweaving of the arts and skateboarding community as they donated skateboard decks to the contributing artists, who then used them as canvases to produce the art pieces to then be auctioned off. All proceeds earned from this event are to benefit the only existing free, public skate park in Jamestown, located on Washington St. Bill Thomas of AAA and JSP remarked, “Skateboarding is a viable form of transportation and healthy recreation for kids, but it’s always kind of been neglected and frowned upon.”

While negative connotations may still be attached, its growth and expansion is unwavering and unquestionably positive. Thomas explained how a sense of brotherhood is firm amongst skaters, as the group is so wide, and young, emerging skaters have older ones to look up to and learn from, developing a sense of belonging. Owner of JSP and contributing artist Pete Scheira stated, “A lot of people that buy these skateboards aren’t skateboarders but they do hang them in their homes, which I think is really cool because skateboarding can be looked at in negative ways but these people aren’t looking at them in that way. They’re really embracing it.” So, as people outside of this immediate circle and cause fi nd their own form of appreciation and connect, so do other sectors of society. Len Barry of the Arts Council for Chautauqua County stated that this connection between skateboarding and creativity “kind of drags you in and pushes you in different directions… I think you’re seeing some innovation in fi lmmaking coming through that also.” The cinematography of skateboarding started off at the street level when

All Hands on Deck, a gallery and silent auction to help fund local skateboarders and artists, is being displayed in Jamestown until July 20.

the VCR was invented. In 1987, the first series of skateboarding videos were compiled into The Bones Brigade Video Show, produced by Stacy Peralta who

skated in the first freestyle competition held in California in 1975. Since then, video production of skating has evolved into professional movies that impact

people all over the world with their widespread availability. Just as the video is influential, so is the music accommodating these different fi lms. People are able to learn new music in this way, and musicians are able to benefit and gain recognition. Thomas and Barry also stated that music is a big component when it comes to something like All Hands on Deck: it’s played without question, and is part of the whole scene. This all can be tied back towards the local community, which is why this event has created such a great turnout with so many helping hands to make it happen. Barry stated, “It’s also tied to start up businesses here, too, because there are strong ties between them.” Thomas chimed in, saying, “That’s the beauty of being in a small town. You know the people you are working with.” So, there are many contributors making up the backbone of this event, but the opening and reception is when all the creativity and hard work is seen and appreciated, with twenty nine artists’ works up for auction, all with a completely unique approach to their canvas. Thomas’s favorite part

about the whole event is “getting everyone physically together in the same room. The idea of bringing the skate, art and local business community together, which creates a common area for these things that seem separate.” Moving forward, the ultimate goal is improvement, not only to the park, but also towards a fresh and a better understanding of what skateboarding is truly about. It’s fair to say that without them, this huge connection of creativity could not be dispersed throughout such a wide range of people and professions. So, as Barry put it, “open up all the doors and try it out, and don’t pass judgment.” Once that is accomplished, many boundaries can dissolve and the potential for these different societal elements can improve, allowing for people, businesses and a whole lot of creative energy to join together. All Hands on Deck will be open until July 20, and everyone is encouraged to come see the art and potentially get involved for next years show.

And through that you are achieving the highest mind state, which is Enlightenment.” The entire process of making the mandala, from the quarries where the stone is gathered to the grinding process which reduces the quarried stone to fi ne sand then the addition of plant-based dyes to the application of the sand to the surface on which the mandala is being created

is significant in developing merit or positive energies which will eventually be spread across the planet. “In order to accumulate all these different [elements] that means you are accumulating a good deed or good actions in order to create this kind of man-

Taking In A “Ghost Walk” at Lily Dale

By Will Pihl Star Contributing Writer

As I drove up old county Route 58, also known as Stockton-Hartfield Road, en route to the infamous community of Lily Dale, the obligatory thoughts of ghosts and haunted houses raced through my head. Approaching the village of Cassadaga, the sky above me turned an ominous black, and the temperature began to drop; thunder could be heard in the distance, and lightning sporadically flashed. How fitting - the etheric atmosphere was the perfect way to drive to Lily Dale Assembly. Now in its 134th year, the center for the religion on spiritualism actually began way back in 1844, in the village of Laona, when William Johnston invited Dr. Moran, a mesmerist from Vermont, to speak about Spiritualism, and to perform a healing of a Mr. Jeremiah Carter. The story goes, as the healing took place, Mr.Carter became entranced and an entity manifested itself and spoke through Mr. Carter to the people watching. This was the first event ever held at what is now

called Lily Dale, and in 1855 the society of free thinkers of Laona NY was established. Then in 1873 Willard Alden, who owned a stagecoach stop on the east banks of Cassadaga Lake, was visited by Mr. Carter who told him that “spirit voices” had been telling him to visit where Mr. Alden owned a farm in the present day location of the Leolyn Hotel and woods, to hold meeting and picnics there in the summer. Eventually the meetings picked up membership and the area was turned into a small summer camp for spiritualists and selfproclaimed “free thinkers.” After getting in the gate, the first stop on the ghost walk was the old auditorium building, where the group listened to a presentation on Spiritualism by Dr. Neal Rzepkowski, a registered medium at Lily Dale. He spoke of what he called etheric energy, which we, the living, all possess and this energy can be manipulated and improved, according to Rzepkowski, by doing things such as “eating lots of greens, and deep breathing to energize you’re aura.”

He then continued on to say “when we die we don’t need the bridge between our physical body and our physical energy, so that etheric energy starts to evaporates in a wispy, milky, fog like substances. There is no intelligence to them but they hang around places they felt lots of emotion in their past lives.” These are not the same things as spirits or ghosts, he explained, but simply energy left behind like a pattern left behind in the ethers, which get energized under certain conditions, and then becomes visible to living people. Intelligent spirits do come to Lily Dale as well, according to Neal, to “console, guide, and let the living know they are o.k, and they are easier to pick up in certain vortex areas such as the inspiration stump here in Lily Dale.” This may all seem pretty far out to some of you if you are not a believer in spirits, but the walk also offered plenty of historical facts about the area, and Lily Dale. The second stop on the tour was the Marion Skidmore Library that contains old writings of spiritualism dating back to the 18th century. Next

we visited an old fountain, which had been in the town for over a hundred years, located by the auditorium and library. The tour continued to the historic Maple Wood Hotel. Originally constructed in 1880 as a horse barn, it was known as the grand hotel for many years, before changing the name to Maple Wood in 1903. It offers a huge wooden porch where many a philosophical debate has been held. A cool rain began to pour down as we made our way to the next stop on the tour, the Lily Dale museum, which was once a one-room schoolhouse. The museum contained all sorts of historic artifacts ranging from old pictures, to an wooden oar that was used in old rowboats on Cassadaga Lake ferrying people from Lily Dale to Cassadaga. There was also an old room where mediums practice connecting to spirits, but the main attraction were the spirit paintings, which apparently all precipitated from “unforeseen hands” during a séance. The last stop was “inspiration stump”, where speakers have been coming and giving demonstrations of

mediumship since the mid 1800s. To get there, we took a dark path hrough the Leolyn woods, which is a rare grove of old growth forest where some of the trees are over 300 years old, and were there long before white man ever stepped foot on the territory. These woods are supposedly one of the location of spirit vortexes at Lily Dale, and it is said that the woods contain high amounts of spiritual energy. Services are held daily there at 1 p.m. and at 5:30 daily throughout the summer, and offer eighteen different speakers this year. At the end of the night, I walked away feeling intrigued but not quite enlightened, no one had

seen or heard anything unusual the, and the vibes of the place were all peaceful. After going through the pictures I had taken I noticed a few unusual things, for example a few of the pictures of the woods and the stump had bright white balls, known as orbs suspended in mid air. Even more odd, was the mysterious white, whispy fog that appeared in some of the photos as well, much like the energy that Neal spoke about. Most astoundingly however, was the picture of one of the spirit paintings that contained what appears to be a small face of a girl in the bottom right hand corner! You can judge these pictures for yourself, but I’ll tell you one thing, I’m a believer.

Markets, Morals and the Social Contract are on the Agenda for Week Four at Chautauqua Contributed Article Chautauqua Institution

Informed by “What Money Can’t Buy,” a new book by frequent Chautauqua collaborator Michael J. Sandel, lectures this week explore the role of markets in all spheres of American life and consider competing views on the proper balance of public and private sectors, in addition to social obligation and fiscal sustainability. Sandel, a Harvard ethicist and philosophy professor, lectures Monday, arguing that America has drifted from having a market economy to being a market society. New York Times op-ed columnist David Brooks returns Tuesday to lecture on the state of the country’s social contract and its effect on culture and family life. Wednesday’s lecture will feature former FEC chairman Trevor Potter, founding president of the Campaign Legal Center and general counsel to John McCain’s 2000 and 2008 presidential campaigns, speaking on how market forces affect the political process. George Packer, staff writer for The New Yorker and author of the forthcoming The Unwinding, on Thursday will portray economic shifts through the stories of Americans from all backgrounds and income levels. To close Week Four, Alan Schwartz, executive chairman of Guggenheim Partners, will provide his views Friday on the role

of business and capital in the evolving American economy, in conversation with New York Times contributing writer Diana B. Henriques. Afternoon Interfaith Lectures Week Four Interfaith Lectures will discuss the role markets should play in the social fabric of communities and families, such as the way healthcare and education are provided. In addition, this week will inquire about opportunity, and perhaps what mandate for change, the recent economic crisis has revealed about economics as a value-neutral science. E.J. Dionne, Jr., a syndicated columnist with The Washington Post, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution and a professor at Georgetown University, will begin the Interfaith week on Monday, July 15. Dionne has written various books including “Souled Out: Reclaiming Faith and Politics After the Religious Right,” which was published by Princeton University Press, and “Why Americans Hate Politics,” winner of the Los Angeles Times book prize and a National Book Award nominee. On Tuesday, Peter A. Georgescu, author of “The Constant Choice – An Everyday Journey from Evil toward Good” will speak.

MuSeuM, CoNtINueD FRoM PG 1 board member and its founding chairman. “We’re so excited for this move and the opportunity to enhance the museum.” The move that Green is referring to is one that has been in the works since late summer of 2012. Located next to the DFT offices at 44 Temple Street, it is a beautifully restored Victorian-era establishment. Formerly home to Tower Gifts, the lower floor was vacated last year. After deciding who would be the next to move in, it seemed good to all that the Telecommunications Museum get a new location- and a few upgrades. “We had needs for a larger space, and we wanted to take things to the next level,” said Dan Siracuse, President of the TSF. “We felt 44 (Temple St.) gave us that ability to update and enhance all of our displays.”

Some of the upgrades include, besides a significant amount of more space, interactivity on a level the museum hasn’t seen before. Each item in the museum is now tagged with a number, and those numbers coincide with a computer program. Visitors can click on the number of the item and read about its use, history and other important details. There are three of these computers located in the building, and they are perched, appropriately, atop telephone cable reels. Another upgrade is the addition of Smart HDTVs in various rooms of the museum. These HDTVs will display preprogrammed content that shares information with visitors about the items in that room. Additionally, there are plans to include voiceovers from the late Robert Maytum, Sr., Arthur’s son, who details a bit of the history

of DFT. The fi nal touches are being put on the new location, and it will be open to the public on July 19 as part of the Fredonia History Days. There will be a barbecue chicken and rib dinner by BW’s Smokin’ Barrels Barbecue from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. All proceeds will benefit the TSF and the museum. Tickets are $9 presale or $10 at the door, and can be purchased by stopping at DFT Communications on Temple St. in Fredonia. For tours of the museum, folks should call 716-6731876 or email telecomsociety@netsync.net to make an appointment. There will be an opening ceremony next month, and a grand opening in September when students, some of the most frequent museum goers. For more information, visit telecommunicationsmuseum.org.

Jackson Center Announces 2013 Teacher Fellowship Recipient

COMMUNITY NEWS 13 Awarded for Excellence

SUNY FREDONIA’S BAXTER, BURCHETT, FERALDI, AND HOWARD RECEIVE PRESIDENT’S AWARD

Contributed Article Robert H. Jackson Center

The Robert H. Jackson Center of Jamestown, New York is pleased to announce that it has awarded the prestigious Robert H. Jackson Center Fellowship to Dr. Timothy Redmond of Williamsville East High School. Dr. Redmond will begin his collaboration with the Center on July 8. The Robert H. Jackson Center Fellowship was created to expand the knowledge and legacy of Justice Robert H. Jackson into classrooms around the region, country, and world. The Fellowship recognizes and rewards those educators who have distinguished themselves in teaching the concept of justice in creative and inspiring ways through project-based learning or who have the potential for this distinction. Dr. Redmond has been an educator for a total of eleven years. During that time, he has taught U.S. and global history, as well as a variety of courses that focus primarily on government and human rights issues at both middle and high school levels. Dr. Redmond has also taught at SUNY Buffalo, and is currently an adjunct professor at Daemen College. In the classroom, Dr. Redmond actively engages his students by helping them connect with individuals and issues that are seemingly beyond their reach and brings them to the forefront of their consciousness. Dr. Redmond is perhaps best known for the high level of positive energy that he uses to teach, inspire, and motivate other educators and students to become active, involved citizens. Students enrolled in his class research current human rights issues and participate in numerous

actions to remedy them, from signing petitions and donating money to writing editorials and calling members of Congress. Such activities serve to illustrate his belief that the classroom should be a place where every student is actively engaged in authentic learning experiences that will empower them to construct meaningful knowledge as they acquire new information. Presently, Dr. Redmond is pursuing efforts to extend such activities on a district-wide basis. As an educational leader, Dr. Redmond spent two years reading and developing a Human Rights and Genocide Studies elective. In collaboration with fellow colleagues at Williamsville North, a curriculum was developed and piloted during the 2012-2013 school year, and will be offered district-wide next year. According to a colleague, Dr. Redmond’s course is “worthy of admiration, and is a perfect embodiment of the ideals that the Jackson Center seeks to promote.”

In addition, employees marking ﬁve, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35 and 40 years of service to the university received service certiﬁcates and pins. Recent retirees were also honored. The program also included student musical performances by the SUNY Fredonia Zusammen Quartet as well as the co-ed a cappella group Premium Blend.

It’s a tough task to improve on Shorewood Country Club. The setting is ideal with a restaurant and bar that directly overlook Lake Erie. The golf course is pristine with 18 holes of challenging, unique and enjoyable play. The people — from the chefs to the bartenders to the members — are some of the friendliest people you’ll ever meet. Yet management hit an absolute home run with the hiring of new head golf pro Vince Puglia. Puglia has probably forgotten more about golf than any normal person will ever know. He’s been around the game for decades and has worked with some of the best golfers in the business. “I started at Wanaka Country Club in 1969 as a caddy,” Puglia said. “Then I worked in the bag room. From there I worked up to an assistant golf pro. I got my first head pro job at Lancaster Country Club.” That in itself would seemingly make Puglia qualified for any head pro position, but that’s only the tip of the iceberg. He also ran his own teaching facility in Niagara Falls for some 20 years. He was so successful that Golf Magazine named him in its list of Top 100 Teachers in America. “I worked with a good friend of mine Mark Bailen who played on the Senior Tour,” Puglia said. “Another good friend of mine

Tim Huen was a very good amateur player. I think he won the Buffalo amateur district seven times. I had the advantage of meeting and working with some very good players.” For the golfers who like Shorewood Country Club just the way it is – fear not. Puglia doesn’t have plans to radically change anything, but rather hopes to simply heighten what is already an enjoyable experience. “I’m not sure you want to say I’ll make any changes,” he explained. “It’s more like when a new coach comes in and wants to run his own scheme. I’m an old-school pro and my thing is

service to the members. The members always come first. I’ve always stressed service and running tournaments efficiently. I don’t want to say changes, just my own scheme and philosophies. It’s been pretty easy. Everyone here is great. I have a great facility.” Make no mistake: Puglia has his work cut out for him. The game of golf has seen a rapid decline in recent years and any golf pro’s job is to attract new members. “The fi rst thing is that golf is tough,” Puglia admitted. “That’s part of the reason people are dropping out. It’s tough, the time to play, the cost - golf has

“First of all, the course is beautiful,” he stated. “It’s never that busy where you need tee times. You can come here and play pretty much any time. There are times when we have outside parties, which we post, but you can play before or after. The food is great in addition to the golf course being great. The people really make it. It’s like anywhere – you’re not going to go back if they don’t treat you right” said Puglia.

*Statement based on the results of a Spring 2013 price study of Time Warner Cable’s standard (non-introductory) pricing in the Fredonia area of $54.99/month for their Standard package.†Standard Infinity DSL pricing applies beginning month 5.

taken a dive in the last 10 years or so. The fi rst thing you have to do as a club is make people welcome and make them want to come back. From there you can build good junior programs and good member programs and tournaments.” If you’re looking for Puglia, chances are he’s out running the junior program, giving lessons or fitting someone for new clubs. But when he’s not out on the course sharing his knowledge, he’ll be in his pro shop. coNtINUED oN pG 2

The Jamestown Area YMCA’s Partner with Youth annual giving campaign was a success, bringing in more than $65,000 in donations to provide needed scholarships for local children to participant in YMCA membership and programming. The goal for 2013 was $60,000. At a recent victory celebration, the following volunteer campaigners were honored for their outgoing support and dedication to this year’s campaign – Chris Smith, top branch producer; Denise Heppeler, highest number of donors; Chip Swanson, highest number of dollars raised, Lynn Nalbone and Dixie Siegel, campaigners of the year. The campaign, under the leadership of YMCA

board secretary Holly Hannon, relies on the help of over 50 volunteer campaigners. There are four phases of the campaign including the Roundtable segment which highlights $1,000 gifts or higher, YMCA staff and board/ trustee member phase and the community portion. “Every year this campaign comes around and is at the heart of what the Y does,” said Mark Eckendorf. “The success of Partner with Youth comes from the overwhelming stories heard every day at the Y and all the people that play an important role in these stories. The sincere work of the volunteer campaigners is also remarkable and very much appreciated.” For more information on how you can become a part of the YMCA movement, visit www.jamestownymca.org.

on the front nine. It’s not a score I’m particularly proud of, but I defi nitely made some shots I was happy with so I’ll just choose to look at the glass as half full. The back nine started great. Scott said it’s probably one of the easier holes on the course and I suppose I’ll agree with that because I ended up recording my first par of the afternoon. It started shaky as I sliced my drive, but was able to make up for it with a laser beam of a 4-iron out of the trees. Then it was just how you draw it up, 8- or 9-iron (I forget what I used) to get onto the green and twoputt to par. The next two holes went really well, too. I had a look at par on both of them, but my putter failed me twice. That said, I’m not disappointed with bogeys. I’ve said often that I’d be very happy to finish with bogey golf most days — especially when the putts aren’t falling. As we were driving to play No. 16 the other three guys were talking about how hard No. 16 is. They called it a showcase hole and how it’s the kind of hole you see on TV. I think they got in my head because it was easily the worst hole I’ve played all year. I hit a drive onto Route 5, I hit a shot into the creek, I couldn’t putt — it was just a disaster. What had been a very good back nine for me quickly disintegrated into having no chance whatsoever at bogey golf. Yes, No. 16 is gorgeous with the trees and the creek going into the pond. But it’s not impossible. I’m not sure why I struggled so badly, but that’s the power of negative energy I suppose. Even if you’ve never played at Shorewood you’ve definitely seen No. 17. It’s a

slightly long par 3 that goes right along Route 5. On this day (and most days from what the other guys said) we had a pretty stiff wind right in our face. Scott led off and came up laughably short after the wind just lifted his ball straight up and dropped it. He said to go at least two clubs up. I didn’t listen and only went one club up and sure enough, I came up short too. My pitch was terrible and went to the back of the green, leaving myself a near-impossible par putt. Luckily I had a near miracle in me. With the slightest of touches I started the ball downhill and it broke way to the right. I read it just right and my ball stopped a mere inch from the hole. I probably deserved worse than a bogey after my tee shot and second attempt, but as I’ve learned, one really good shot can certainly make up for a bad one or two. I fi nished with a 50 on the back nine giving me a 104 for the day. I really would have liked to break 100, but two or three bad holes (including the one absolute disaster) made that a pipe dream. Scott, meanwhile, was just four over par for the day with a 76. His iron play was outstanding and he left himself with some easy putts. He only plays once every two weeks or so, so that’s an impressive feat. The Shorewood Country Club Pro Shop is fully stocked with everything a golfer might need.

Howard Turns Rockets From Promising To Contenders By Kristie Rieken AP Sports Writer

Last offseason, the Houston Rockets were an afterthought, a young team with little star power. Now, after trading for James Harden just before this past season and adding Dwight Howard on Friday, Houston is suddenly primed to contend sooner than almost anybody expected. Still, Houston general manager Daryl Morey knows nabbing Howard is only the first step in a long process for his team. ''We haven't accomplished anything yet, but we're putting something pretty cool together, I think,'' Morey said in an interview with Comcast SportsNet Houston. Howard is the Rockets' latest superstar center, following Hall of Famer Hakeem Olajuwon and eight-time All-Star Yao Ming. They reached the playoffs for the first time since 2009 this season and battled back from a 3-0 deficit before being eliminated by the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 6. Their return to the postseason showed they have plenty of speed and long-range scoring power with Harden, Jeremy Lin and Chandler Parsons. Omer Asik was a solid rebounder in the playoff run and averaged 12.3 points in the series, but it was clear that the team

''To Dwight's credit he did turn down a pretty significant amount of money to come to the Rockets. It shows his mindset that he's really ready to take that next step. If you look at best players, James Harden is the best player out there that he could join.'' But Harden certainly isn't Houston's only weapon. The Rockets signed Lin last season to run their offense and they were also buoyed by the development of Parsons, a second-round pick in 2011. Parsons averaged 15.5 points last season and was even better in the playoffs when Lin was ailing, averaging 18.2 points against the Thunder. Morey believes the move puts the Rockets among the top teams in the Western Conference and definitely positions them to contend for a title. He pointed to the Miami Heat, San Antonio Spurs and Oklahoma City Thunder as the teams he sees as Houston's biggest competition next season. ''We obviously have our work cut out for us,'' he said on Comcast. ''We're going to set ourselves up to be able to compete with them. This move is obviously the most important one. We'll let the chips fall where they may.''

Commentary continued from pg 1 My other big gripe about the team is Prince Fielder making it at first base over James Loney or Adam Lind. I realize that Jim Leyland is the manager and is more apt to go with his guys, but this certainly feels like a career-accomplishment pick to me. But enough about the American League. Even though the real team has already been announced, let’s take a look at which players I think should make up the Senior Circuit squad. First base: Joey Votto (starter), Paul Goldschmidt, Allen Craig (reserves) — This is actually how the roster looks at first base in the N.L. All three of these guys are mashers and major run producers. Votto and Goldschmidt could conceivably be battling for N.L. MVP honors when the season is winding down. A few weeks ago I might have put Atlanta’s Freddie Freeman in over Craig, but Craig has had a nice power surge to go with his always impressive sabermetrics. Second base: Matt Carpenter (starter), Brandon Phillips, Marco Scutaro (reserves) — All three of these guys made the team, though Phillips won the fan vote and the start. Honestly I’m not sure how anyone in good conscience could vote for Phillips over Carpenter. The Cardinals’ second sacker has an OBP nearly 80 points higher and a slugging percentage nearly 70 points higher. Phillips has those overrated RBI numbers because he hits behind Votta and Shin-Soo Choo, who are always on base. Either way, all three guys are deserving. Shortstop: Jean Segura

Sabres reacquire tallinder From Devils For Boychuk MLB power rankings Contributed Article Associated Press

The Buffalo Sabres continued to revamp their defense by reacquiring Henrik Tallinder from the New Jersey Devils for prospect Riley Boychuk. Tallinder spent the last three years with the Devils after spending parts of eight seasons with the Sabres. He entered the NHL as a second-round draft pick of the Sabres in 1997. Tallinder, 34, played in just 25 games last year, posting one goal and three assists. He was a stalwart on the back end during Buffalo's playoff runs in 2006 and 2007 and became an onice mentor to Tyler Myers in 2009. Myers, 23, has struggled without Tallinder New Jersey Devils Henrik Tallinder in the first period of the as a defensive partner. NHL hockey game in Uniondale, New York, Saturday, Feb.

Henrik back in the mix on our blue line,'' Sabres general manager Darcy Regier said in a statement. ''His experience will be invaluable not only in adding more stability to our back end, but also in the development of some of our younger defensemen.'' Boychuk was a seventhround pick of Buffalo in 2010. The Sabres have focused on defense in recent days, re-signing Alexander Sulzer to a one-year contract and signing Drew Bagnall to a two-way contract Saturday. Buffalo also selected two defensemen in the first round of the draft, Rasmus Ristolainen and Nikita Zadorov, and acquired former Carolina defenseman Jamie McBain in a trade during the draft for defenseman Andrej Sekera.

chelios, Niedermayer top 2013 Hockey Hall class By Larry Lage AP Hockey Writer

Chris Chelios played in the NHL for as long as he could. And he did it at a high level. ''I always said I'd go right until the tank was empty,'' he said. ''And, I believe I did.'' Chelios and fellow defensemen Scott Niedermayer along with forward Brendan Shanahan found out Tuesday they will be inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in November. Only Hall of Famer Gordie Howe was an older NHL player than Chelios, the only player in league history to play in at least 400 games with three different teams. His career ended with the Atlanta Thrashers during the 2009-10 season when he was 48. ''I was part of an era, Chris was part of a few,'' Niedermayer joked. Chelios, Niedermayer and Shanahan will be joined in the 2013 class by Geraldine Heaney, the third woman to be enshrined in the hall, and coach Fred Shero, who led the Philadelphia Flyers to the Stanley Cup in 1974 and '75. He was selected posthumously in the builder category. ''There's no sense looking back as to why it didn't happen sooner, because today's a happy day to celebrate the fact that a guy that deserves it immensely has finally been elected to the Hall of Fame,'' Flyers chairman Ed Snider said.

them, it was a thrill,'' Shanahan said. ''I spent some years playing with Cheli, and there's not another guy that you would want to go into a tough situation looking out for you. ''It absolutely makes it more special to go in with people I not only played against, but played with and got to know well.'' Shanahan and Niedermayer are members of what's known as the Triple Gold Club, a group of players who have won the worlds, the Olympics and a Stanley Cup. Each player is still working in the sport. Chelios is an adviser to hockey operations in Detroit. Niedermayer is an assistant coach in Anaheim.

Shanahan started his career with the Devils, went on to play in St. Louis, Hartford, Detroit and for the New York Rangers before ending his playing career back in New Jersey. Heaney was a defenseman on Canada's gold-medalwinning team at the 2002 Olympics and is considered one of the best female players in history. ''As a young girl playing hockey, never in my wildest dreams did I think I would be going into the hall,'' she said.

These weekly power rankings are based on more than just standings. They are the opinion of just one person and meant to facilitate discussion. Feel free to disagree with the rankings and send your thoughts to stefan.gestwicki@star-mediagroup.com. 1) Boston Red Sox 55-37 A leaguebest 31 home wins has Red Sox Nation thinking October baseball. 2) St. Louis Cardinals 54-34 Cards took full advantage of back-to-back series against the lowly Marlins and Astros. 3) Oakland Athletics 54-37 Bartolo Colon is a legitimate Cy Young candidate at the halfway mark. 4) Texas Rangers 53-37 Adrian Beltre is straight-up mashing and is closing in on a 3rd straight 30-homer season. 5) Pittsburgh Pirates 53-36 A series of one-run losses have the bandwagoners nervous. Stay calm Bucco fans. 6) Atlanta Braves 52-38 Still very reliant on the home run, the Braves offense puts up an awful lot of goose eggs. 7) Tampa Bay Rays 51-40 Six straight wins have the Rays in second place in the East. Look out, here they come. 8) Detroit Tigers 49-40 Miguel Cabrera’s .363/29/92 would be a good fi nal slash line. We’re not even to the break. 9) Cincinnati Reds 50-40 A lot of people still fully expect the Reds to be on top of the Central by season’s end. 10) Baltimore Orioles 49-42 Last year’s magic seems to be gone as the O’s are just 13-14 in one-run games this season. 11) Cleveland Indians 47-43 Embarrassing night for Nick Swisher: Fell down rounding third and didn’t run out squib. 12) New York Yankees 48-42 Joe Girardi can probably collect his Coach of the Year award now with what he’s done. 13) Arizona Diamondbacks 47-43 Ten extra-inning wins is both good and bad. That bullpen has put on a lot of miles already. 14) Los Angeles Dodgers 44-45 Puig gets the credit, but for my money Hanley Ramirez has made the biggest difference. 15) Washington Nationals 46-44 Nats have to start beating division rivals Atlanta and Philly if they want to contend. 16) Philadelphia Phillies 45-46 Ryan Howard’s injury adds to the belief that his contract is the worst of all time. 17) Toronto Blue Jays 43-46 Remember that 11-game winning streak? Yeah, these guys could use another one. 18) Los Angeles Angels 43-46 That brutal start to the season is keeping the Halos 10 games back in the West. 19) Kansas City Royals 43-44 That overrated win-loss record is all the kept James Shields from being an All Star. 20) Chicago Cubs 40-48 Don’t look now but the Cubs have won four straight and seven of 10. Will they still trade? 21) Colorado Rockies 43-48 Carlos Gonzalez is bucking a trend by hitting better on the road than at Coors field this year. 22) San Diego Padres 41-50 Ouch. Few things will kill team momentum and confidence like a 10-game losing streak. 23) Milwaukee Brewers 37-52 Kyle Lohse has allowed 10 earned runs in his last seven starts. Why did no one want him? 24) Seattle Mariners 40-50 No hope and very few trade assets. What a miserable situation for Mariners fans. 25) San Francisco Giants 40-49 Thank goodness everyone in the West stinks. The Giants still aren’t out of it. 26) New York Mets 39-57 David Wright’s ovation at the All-Star game is going to be deafening. It should be fun. 27) Minnesota Twins 37-50 Joe Mauer must want to cry. He’s easily the best catcher in the A.L. and his team is…not. 28) Chicago White Sox 35-52 Alex Rios really upped his trade value with that 6-for-6. Destination: Pittsburgh? 29) Houston Astros 32-58 Chris Carter is making Adam Dunn and Mark Reynolds look like Ichiro and Pete Rose. 30) Miami Marlins 32-57 Jose Fernandez (2.82 ERA, 1.07 WHIP) is anything but the token Marlins All Star.
