Labor Day US Dept. of Labor

Labor Day: What it Means Labor Day, the first Monday in September, is a creation of the labor movement and is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of American workers. It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country. Labor Day Legislation Through the years the nation gave increasing emphasis to Labor Day. The first governmental recognition came through municipal ordinances passed during 1885 and 1886. From these, a movement developed to secure state legislation. The first state bill was introduced into the New York legislature, but the first to become law was passed by Oregon on February 21, 1887. During the year four more states — Colorado, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and New York — created the Labor

Day holiday by legislative enactment. By the end of the decade Connecticut, Nebraska, and Pennsylvania had followed suit. By 1894, 23 other states had adopted the holiday in honor of workers, and on June 28 of that year, Congress passed an act making the first Monday in September of each year a legal holiday in the District of Columbia and the territories. Founder of Labor Day More than 100 years after the first Labor Day observance, there is still some doubt as to who first proposed the holiday for workers. Some records show that Peter

Keeping The Faith

Rev. Michael Lokietek Family Church Fredonia fcfredonia.org

Dear Pastor, I just went away to college and my parents want me to find a church. I’m not sure what I believe and want to take some time off. Why should I go to church? I appreciate your honesty. It’s unfortunate that you don’t see church as a vibrant place to worship God and provide security in the associations that can be found there. Perhaps your experiences with church have been based on limited exposure to types of church services, or that your home-church just doesn’t seem responsive to your

life. Rather than a lack of belief, I suspect that your uncertainty may be due to your becoming more mature and separating yourself from your childhood identity. While this is a natural process, it is also a time where you can make choices that aren’t beneficial to your future. The Bible says in 2 Corinthians 3:17 "Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty." The Spirit of the Lord can also be called the presence of God or the Holy Spirit. It’s God’s desire that when His children come to church that they would experience His presence in joy and liberty. Church should therefore be an exciting and uplifting experience! I’m sure you’ve heard this scripture quoted (usually while finger-wagging), Hebrews 10:25, “Do not forsake our own assembling together, as the custom of some.” While this is good advice, it’s not the whole story. In context, this passage is about the God-designed functioning of the New Church. Hebrews 10:22 says, “Let us go in with

August 21 true hearts, in certain faith, having our hearts made free from the sense of sin and our bodies washed with clean water. 23) Let us keep the witness of our hope strong and unshaking, for He is true who has given His word. 24) And let us be moving one another at all times to love and good works.” Church shouldn’t be a place where you feel confused, unworthy, and disconnected. This passage presents an environment of freedom, forgiveness, encouragement, love, and purpose. This is only achieved where God’s Spirit can express Himself. Rather than dump the idea of church altogether, may I suggest that you pray to find the one right for you? During this crucial time, the right church can be a great place to find answers and direction for your future.

Have a Safe and Happy Labor Day!

City of Jamestown

Mayor Sam Teresi and the Labor Day Festival Committee have announced that the 38th Annual Greater Jamestown Labor Day Festival will be held Sunday, September 3, 2017, from noon until 9:00 p.m. at Bergman Park. The Greater Jamestown Labor Day Festival is a community celebration designed to honor the labor force of the city and surrounding area, widely recognized as the very best in the nation. All money raised is used to directly fund festival activities and support the host of non-profit community service agencies who participate. Committee organizers are recommending that festival participants get to the park early enough to reserve a prime location on the lawn in front of the main stage in order to be in the middle of the fireworks extravaganza by Zambelli Fireworks Internationale, which begins when the final band, Two For Flinching, finishes its performance around 8:30 p.m. “Get to Bergman Park early Sunday, September 3rd. Pick your spot on the lawn in front of the main stage. Get some food. Visit the vendors and crafters. Take the kids to play some games. Then enjoy the biggest fireworks display the region has to offer. The only way is to be right in the middle of all the action,” said Mayor Teresi. People parking their cars at Bergman Park will receive a ticket to enter into a drawing at the Information Booth for a chance to win a $100 Mastercard Gift card that is being sponsored by Ahlstrom Schaeffer Electric Corporation. Ahlstrom Schaeffer provides electrical services for industrial, commercial, institutional and construction businesses. There also will be two chances to win a box seat pass to the 2018 Babe Ruth World Series. The passes are being donated by the Babe Ruth World Series Committee.

Little Explorers Learn about The Underworld at Audubon, Saturday, September 9 Contributed Article Audubon Community Nature Center

A fallen tree, a rock, or a pile of leaves can harbor a whole host of small creatures. The Underworld is the theme for Audubon Community Nature Center’s next Little Explorers on Saturday morning, September 9. At the 10-11:30 a.m. event you and the three- to eight-year-old child(ren) in your life can learn about animals that live under things. Is it a centipede or a millipede? Do you know what slug eggs look like? How does a worm feel when it slides through your fingers? Adults and children will study the underworld and its residents. You will explore, flip, and learn about the world under your feet. After a lesson inside, the group will head outdoors for a hike and more learning. Returning inside, you will enjoy a snack and, if there is time, a craft. The program runs rain or shine and going outdoors is the most important part, so come dressed for the weather. The fee for Little Explorers is $8 for adults, $6 for Nature Center members and children. Reservations are required by Thursday, September 7, and can be made by calling (716) 569-2345 during business hours or online through the Programs page at auduboncnc.org. Audubon education programs are funded with support from the Carnahan Jackson Foundation, Jessie Smith Darrah Fund, Holmberg Foundation, Hultquist Foundation, and Lenna Foundation. Audubon Community Nature Center is at 1600 Riverside Road, one-quarter mile east of Route 62 between Jamestown, New York, and Warren, Pennsylvania. To learn more, call (716) 569-2345 or visit auduboncnc.org.

At Audubon Community Nature Center’s Little Explorers on Saturday morning, September 9, children ages three to eight and their favorite grownups will learn about animals that live under things. Pictured are isopods, a type of crustacean with common names such as RolyPolys, Sowbugs, Pillbugs, and Potato bugs.

Audubon Community Nature Center builds and nurtures connections between people and nature by providing positive outdoor experiences, opportunities to learn about and understand the natural world, and knowledge to act in environmentally responsible ways.

SOUND THE ALARM FOR FIRE SAFETY, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 10 To be alert and ready for a fire, individuals should install smoke alarms in their homes. Smoke alarms should be placed on every level of a home, including inside and outside of bedrooms. They should be tested once a month and batteries should be changed at least once a year.

Individuals should also develop a fire escape plan. Fire experts agree that people may have as little as two minutes to escape a burning home before it’s too late to get out. Every household should create a fire escape plan and practice it until everyone can escape in less than two minutes. Escape plans should include at least two ways to

escape from every room; a designated spot outside where family members can meet; and be discussed and practiced at least twice a year. To learn more about how you can help or to schedule a free smoke alarm installation appointment at your home, visit www.soundthealarm.org/wcny.

No Bake Chocolate Strawberry Tart By Katy Wise Contributing Writer

Every once in a while, I get to expand my dessert horizons and try a new recipe. If you stay up to date on this column, then I am sure this is not the first time that you have heard this. I love trying new recipes. Trying out a fresh new recipe is one of the most exciting things for someone who bakes! Aside from getting new sprinkles, cake pans or kitchen gadgets, of course. Then again the excitement over sprinkles may just be me… Especially when there is a birthday coming up, I like to get a general idea of what the guest of honor would like, and then go from there. Much of the time, I get asked for repeat things, which was the case with my niece’s birthday not too long ago. Sometimes, though, I get nonspecific ideas. These are the best. For example, a couple weeks ago, a friend and I celebrated her birthday with a morning playdate. I almost typed ‘quiet morning playdate,’ but our three kids plus any other kids, plus sugar… well, let’s just omit the word, ‘quiet,’ from any description of such an occasion. Back to the chocolate part of the playdate/party. My dear friend’s only definite suggestions were chocolate and berries. We have been friends for quite some time, so I have been able to observe her in her normal

dessert habitat, so to speak. One of her favorite desserts is soft serve ice cream with chocolate coating and fruit on top. Some people might read this sentence and find it incredibly strange that I have noticed such things, but I am a detail noticer, it’s just part of my personality. This has everything to do with the sprinkle love a few sentences ago. Finishing touches and details, people watching, everyone has their quirks. My quirk is that I notice other people’s quirks. Again, back to the chocolate. The hunt began, I started with that knowledge that I had gained and went straight to Pinterest. By the way, if ever you are

experiencing a recipe shortage, or just need a little dinner-time inspirational boost, Pinterest is the place to go. There was an abundance of chocolate and strawberry/raspberry/every berry in existence recipes. One stuck out though, and I quickly recalled having watched the YouTube video for it not all that long ago. Ding-Ding! We had a winner, folks. This was something that wasn’t really all that difficult to make, but certainly looks like a million bucks when it is served the right way. It was also one of those desserts that can immediately be upgraded when you buy the really good chocolate and not just your standard baking ingredients.

This is super chocolatey and very rich, which means it goes pretty far. It goes even further if you decide to make the kids their own dessert (dirt cups, anyone?) so that the adults don’t have to share. Without any further ado, I present to you a delicious chocolate tart. Side note, I do not have a tart pan, and no, you do not actually need one for this recipe. I used a round 9” springform pan (think cheesecake) so that I could easily transfer to a cake plate afterwards. Would it look cuter and more presentable to use an actual tart pan? Probably. Maybe someday I will get one and compare notes and pictures, but until that day… it tastes just the same, so here you go!

As always, thanks for reading and happy no-baking from HBK! No-Bake Chocolate Strawberry Tart • 32 Oreo Cookies • ½ C. Butter • 7 oz. Milk chocolate • 3.5 oz. Semisweet chocolate • 10 oz. Fresh Strawberries • 7 oz. Heavy Cream Using a food processor, (or a Ziploc bag and rolling pin!) crush those cookies, cream and all. Melt butter, and thoroughly mix together with the cookie crumbles. Spread into pan, pressing down with a spoon. Freeze the cookie crust while preparing the filling. Wash and prepare strawberries by cutting into quarters. Side note… you can cut the strawberries however you would like, but the smaller the strawberries are, the easier the tart will be to cut apart and eat. Break chocolate into small pieces. Heat heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium-low heat for about 3 minutes. Cream does not need to boil or simmer. Immediately pour cream over chocolate, and let sit for 1 minute before stirring. Stir chocolate and cream until smooth, then pour into cookie crust. Place strawberries in filling. Refrigerate for at least two hours over for a full night before serving.

Surprising Ways to Improve Your Skin

Contributed Article StatePoint

If you’ve spent any energy devoted to improving your complexion, you may think you understand all the strategies for achieving clear and healthy-looking skin. However, there are some surprising skin care facts you may not know about that can help you rethink your routine. For example, acids in skin care products can mean many different things, and there is often a negative connotation with the ingredient. However, there are many effective ways to work acids into your skincare regimen. • Glycolic acid is the most effective alpha-hydroxy acid, according to dermatologists, due to its small molecule size -- allowing it to penetrate deeper, act as an exfoliant to remove dead skin cells and reveal renewed skin. Consider incorporating this acid into your mask routine to smooth skin, reduce the appearance of wrinkles, and allow for smoother application

of makeup. Ninety-three percent of women reported skin that felt soft and smooth after just one use of StriVectin Glycolic Skin Reset Mask, a formulation that is paired with a proprietary form of Niacin/ Vitamin B3 called NIA-114, to offer age-fighting benefits. Oleic acid, an omega-9 fatty acid that replenishes the skin’s lipid layer, is an essential component of skin barrier function, and the foundation of healthy, resilient skin. As skin’s lipids deplete as you age, you may need to actively offer your skin the benefits of this acid. The ingredient will repair visible signs of aging and sooth dry, damaged skin. Hyaluronic acid, a hydrating molecule that attracts and retains up to 1,000 times its weight in water, is naturally found in skin. As one ages, its presence diminishes, leading to dehydration, fine lines and wrinkles. However, you can rehydrate and replump skin by applying this acid topically.

Parents Grateful to WMH Emergency Department for Life-Saving Actions Contributed Article Westfield Memorial Hospital

“Our baby stopped breathing. It was the most terrifying moment of my life,” said Erica Belson of Westfield. “If it wasn’t for Westfield Memorial Hospital (WMH), we wouldn’t have our daughter, Alivia, here with us today,” Belson continued. On May 21, 2012, Alivia (just a few weeks-old) was rushed to the WMH Emergency Department (ED) where Dr. C. Phillip Garriott and members of the WMH ED staff are credited with saving her life. They stabilized, the baby and she was air-lifted to Women and Children’s Hospital of Buffalo for further care and treatment. Belson stated “that everyone involved with her care did everything right in saving Alivia.” Fast forward to August, 2017 when a very happy and grateful mother (with a beautiful little girl in tow) visited the WMH Foundation board meeting. Belson presented a $400 gift from herself and her husband, Matt, to the foundation’s RED (Renovate our Emergency Department) Cam-

paign as a symbol of their continued appreciation to the hospital. In a letter to the hospital foundation, Belson wrote, “We cannot thank Westfield Memorial Hospital and all their amazing staff enough for saving our daughter’s life. We cannot put into words the gratitude that we have for each person that was there that day...without this hospital, we would not have our amazing little girl who heads off to Kindergarten soon.” “It is a story I hear quite often. No one plans for a baby to be in the hospital’s emergency department,” stated Rose Van Volkenburg, president of the WMH Foundation. “Every life is precious and it is heart-warming when grateful parents return to donate,” said Patricia Gaughan DiPalma, executive director.

Van Volkenburg continued, “with a majority of the funding for the ED Upgrade coming from gifts to the hospital foundation, it shows just how significant the need for donations are so that our community hospital is able to continue to provide high quality health care to all the residents throughout Westfield and beyond.” The hospital’s service area also includes: Ashville, Bemus Point, Brocton, Chautauqua, Clymer, Dewittville, Findley Lake, Mayville, Panama, Portland, Ripley, Sherman, Stockton and all visitors to our region.

National Preparedness Month: Keep Your Family Safe in an Emergency Contributed Article StatePoint

When it comes to emergency and natural disaster preparation, clean, uncontaminated water should be top-of-mind. September, which is National Preparedness Month, is an ideal time for individuals and families to make certain that they will be able to hydrate safely throughout the duration of an emergency. Natural disasters, such as tornadoes, floods and hurricanes, can compromise local water sources. Flooding can be especially dangerous, when harmful bacteria and contaminants that transmit life-threatening diseases can be present in nearby waterways. Unfortunately, flooding can occur after a number of emergency scenarios, from heavy rains to hurricanes to situations when snow melts too quickly. “Contamination in fresh water sources continues to be a public health problem domestically and worldwide. During emergency scenarios, the issue is amplified as water can become unreliable for consumption,” says Alison Hill, managing director of LifeStraw, a manufacturer of water filtration systems. Consumers need to have the ability to filter their water following an emergency situation. Be sure your emergency supplies include a portable filter which can fit onto a wide variety of popular water bottle brands such as LifeStraw Universal. This versatile filter fits on most bottles you already own and offers two-stage filtration to remove 99.999999 percent of bacteria and 99.999 percent of protozoa, while also reducing chemicals, bad taste and odors. The LifeStraw Universal kit is available online and at specialty retail stores. “We’ve developed portable filtration technology to give consumers greater confidence that, in an emergency situation or natural disaster, they can have access to safe water for days, weeks, even months following a situation where their water supply is compromised,” says Hill. While most people don’t like to dwell on worst case scenarios, the right preparation can help you remain healthy and safe during an emergency. This National Preparedness Month; be sure that you equip your family with practical means to have safe drinking water.

Convert a water bottle into a portable filter for safe, instant hydration.

Back-to-school season is a popular time to replace tablets, smartphones and other mobile devices. However, while you’re busy paying for books, student fees and other education-related expenses, tech costs don’t have to be a burden. Today, refurbished devices and accessories can provide a quality, reliable alternative at often less than half of what it costs to buy a new device. Indeed, more consumers are coming to that conclusion. Demand for used smartphones is forecast to grow considerably, according to several industry analyst reports. While there’s a lingering belief among many consumers that refurbished devices are those that were broken or have had problems, the truth is that many refurbished devices come from trade-in and upgrade programs.

Through these programs, owners trade in a perfectly good device so that they can get a newer model. Whether traded in or repaired, if you do consider purchasing a refurbished device, check out reliable sources such as MyWit.com, where all devices undergo an extensive 65-point inspection of cosmetics and performance to ensure full functionality. These tests verify that every possible function -- camera, audio, SIM, WiFi, Bluetooth, etc. -- is in excellent working order, and only devices that score 100 percent on these tests are made available to purchase. What’s more, purchasing refurbished devices is an eco-friendly alternative, keeping used devices from ending up in a landfill and reducing the demand for new devices. Whether you are purchasing a device as a gift or for yourself, this back-toschool season, consider upgrading devices in a smart way that’s affordable and sustainable.

Fredonia’s Marion Art Gallery to Host Andrea Dezsö Exhibition Contributed Article SUNY Fredonia

Visitors will have an opportunity to experience enchanted forests, bat caves and utopian cities in the first exhibition of the 2017-18 season at the Cathy and Jesse Marion Art Gallery at the State University of New York at Fredonia. “Andrea Dezsö: Enchanted Fictions” opens on Tuesday, Sept. 5. The Marion Art Gallery is located on the main level of Rockefeller Arts Center, with best access from the Symphony Circle side of the building. The exhibition features Dezsö’s illustrations for the latest translation of Grimm’s fairytales, embroidery from her series “Lessons from My Mother,” tunnel books, autobiographical ceramic plates such as “After We Emigrated,” and a large vinyl installation titled “Six-HeartTH INFINITY’S 14 ANNUAL LOCAL ed She-Wolf Protectress Poses with MUSIC SHOWCASE, CONTINUED Human Being.” While growing up in the harsh FROM PAGE 21 communist regime of Romania, For a full schedule of and literature.

She will also focus within five pillars of the arts: org on the business side of her career music, art, dance, theater, at the Fredonia Technology Incubator’s Art and Business Luncheon Series on Friday, Sept. 15 at noon. The incubator is located at 214 Central Ave. in Dunkirk. The artist will also be present for a reception in the Marion Art Gallery on Friday, Sept. 15 from 7 to 9 p.m. All programs are free and open to the public. The exhibition runs through Sunday, Oct. 8.

Andrea Dezsö’s “Garden Beings 2,” a stone lithograph, will be among her works on display in an exhibition at the Cathy and Jesse Marion Art Gallery at the State University of New York at Fredonia starting Sept. 5.

Fredonia Visual Arts and New Media faculty members Jill Johnston and Dr. Leesa Rittelmann curated the exhibition in the Marion Gallery. “Parallel to the original Grimm Brothers’ tales, Andrea Dezsö’s work is not all saccharine and bright but enchanted contrasts of beauty and the monstrous, revealing tales that interpret her personal mythos,” Johnston wrote in an essay on Dezsö’s work. Rittelmann noted that, “Dezsö’s investment in historical traditions and techniques, unique experiences as a child in communist Romania, and career as a contemporary artist working in the United States have resulted in a body of work that is as mysterious and timeless as it is timely and relevant. In a world governed by sound bites and social media, her devotion to careful observation, slow labor, and unfettered imagination is quietly critical and strangely restorative.” Dezsö works across a broad range of mediums including: drawing, painting, artist's books, embroidery, cut paper, animation, sculpture, site-specific installation, and public art. “Community Garden,” Dezsö's mosaic in the New York City

subway, was recognized as Best American Public Art in 2007 by Americans for the Arts. Her editorial illustrations have appeared in The New York Times, The Washington Post, and Harper’s Magazine. Dezsö exhibits in museums and galleries around the world. An associate professor of Art at Hampshire College in Amherst, Mass., Dezsö maintains studios in New York City and western Massachusetts. She received a master of fine arts degree in Visual Communication from the Hungarian University of Design in Budapest and a bachelor of fine arts degree in Graphic Design and Typography from the Hungarian University of Design in Budapest. To schedule a group tour or to request an exhibition catalog, contact Marion Art Gallery Director Barbara Räcker at 673-4897 or barbara.racker@fredonia.edu. Gallery hours are Tuesday through Thursday noon to 4 p.m., Friday and Saturday noon to 6 p.m., and Sunday noon to 4 p.m. Funding for this exhibition is provided by the Fredonia College Foundation’s Cathy and Jesse Marion Endowment Fund and the Friends of Rockefeller Arts Center.

Ballroom Dancing Classes to Begin September 11 at the Collage Performing Arts Center Contributed Article Doug Hinton

Fall is nearly upon us and it is time to be thinking of ways to keep active as the usual summer projects and outside activities are put aside for another long winter season. As everyone knows the key to good health, both physical and mental is exercise. We need to keep moving because when we rest we rust. Why not consider joining a class in social dancing, which is the perfect anecdote for combating the winter blues. Where else can one find and opportunity to channel one’s energy and attention in

an activity which provides mental stimulation, physical exercise, artistic interpretation and agreeable social interaction. As noted in the Harvard Health Watch publication, June 2016, “Dancing is the universal human experience. We dance to express joy, celebrate life events and enact religious and cultural

rituals. Dance also has physical and cognitive benefits that may exceed those of the other forms of exercise. Both music and exercise help prevent and alleviate disease. Fusing the two may have even greater benefits than either alone.” Classes in Social Dancing in the style of American Ballroom will begin once again at the Collage Performing Arts Center located at 214 Eagle St. in Fredonia beginning Thursday September 14th for beginners and Monday, September 11th for folks already familiar with the basic dances.

Try A Travel Tour Map Tailored to Low-Alcohol Wines Contributed Article NewsUSA

As more consumers appreciate the balanced elegance of loweralcohol wines, the California wine industry is responding with a new guide that provides savvy travelers to Sonoma or Napa with the best ways to identify and appreciate these beverages. Jordan Winery has introduced the first Napa Sonoma Wineries Lower Alcohol Wine Tasting Map to guide consumers seeking lighter, elegant, lowalcohol wines. "Interest in lighter wines is becoming more prevalent in wine country, as savvy visitors grow to appreciate the food-friendly charms of elegant wines that emphasize fruit and acidity over tannin and alcohol," notes Jordan Winery writer Lisa

Mattson in a recent post on WineCountryTable.com. The definition of low-alcohol wine varies; much of Europe considers low-alcohol wine to be anything 13 percent or less. Jordan Winery set the cutoff for its low-alcohol map

as below 14 percent, which allowed for inclusion of just 39 wineries -- 26 in Sonoma and 13 in Napa -- about 4 percent of the regions' producers. The neighboring wine appellations are home to more than 800 vintners.

Although the Napa wineries include four makers of sparkling wines, the warmer Napa climate is less conducive to lighter wines in general, and produces more cabernets, according to the guide. The map, which will be updated each summer, requires that more than 90 percent of a winery's production is labeled as 13.9 percent ABV or below for inclusion. Some of the highlighted wineries and their popular low-alcohol wines: • Cobb Wines: The pinot noirs from Cobb Wines check in below 13 percent alcohol by volume (ABV). • Corison Winery: Known for Napa Valley cabernet sauvignons that are both powerful and elegant and enjoy a long, interesting life.

Jordan Vineyard & Winery: Cabernet and chardonnay are the focal points of Jordan Vineyard & Winery, with lower alcohol and intense fruit notes that complement a variety of foods. • Nalle Winery: A small family winery that has resisted the high-alcohol zinfandel style for decades; the only Dry Creek Valley vintner on the map. • Scribe Winery: In addition to chardonnay and pinot noir, Scribe Winery offers low-alcohol wine enthusiasts silvaner and riesling at 13.5 percent ABV and lower. For more information about the lower-alcohol, wine tasting map, as well as travel tips for exploring wine country, go to www.WineCountryTable.com.

He is a Junior in the Cassadaga high school as an excelled student. Sensei Garrette Catanese has been a member of The Family Martial Arts Center since age 9. Their progression has been exciting and adventurous. The training consists of mental and physical endurance and challenges. One may think the Martial Arts is all physical. Incorrect. Most training is mental. Reading one's body movements, telegraphing body placements, awareness of surroundings, confidence to make a wise choice, socializing with groups, being able to teach their own individual knowledge to Students with precise accuracy, becoming a role model, using the skills learned in other life obstacles and skills (sports and activities) and to persevere as a young adult. Sensei Castle and Sensei Catanese training consisted in punches, kicks, ground defense and offense, balance in the mind and body, grappling, weapons training and many other aspects of defense. Sensei Castle has many goals, one of which is to work with computers and work in the computer engineering field. Sensei Catanese enjoys working with the 4H and caring, raising and nurturing animals. Several of our black belts attended the ceremony. I want to thank the Sensei’ family and friends for supporting them on this day and through the journey.

ahead of us was a solo guy who just flew through the course. Something strange happened to me during this round — golf was easy. I don’t mean I had a good day putting or driving, etc. I mean that when I hit a ball, I knew it was going to be a good shot. I was hitting greens right and left. I was smashing irons and hybrids where I wanted to. My driver wasn’t at the absolute top of its game, but it certainly wasn’t hindering my play. Spoiler alert: I ended up shooting a

41-38-79. That’s the second 79 I’ve carded this season. This round truly was different though. For the first time in my life, I felt like I was good at golf. That back nine score of 38 was only three over par and really, it could have been even par extremely easily. I lipped out birdies on back-toback holes and somehow turned one of those into a bogey. Drat. Matt actually played well, too. This was only his second time out this year, but once he got loosened up a bit, he was hitting the ball very nicely. His line of 51-4798 is certainly better than he anticipated going in. Well you know what? It’s a darn good thing I

played the round of my life on that day because hours later my wife went into labor. By Monday afternoon, I was a father to a beautiful baby boy. I already have dreams of hitting the links with my son someday. Admittedly, I’ve been spoiled the past few years. I’ve been able to golf a couple times a week, if not more. But having a child changes your priorities pretty darn quickly. That said, I wasn’t going to be able to NOT play for too terribly long. After a two-week break, I was able to sneak out of the house for a quick nine with Nick. We tried to go to Hillview, but there was a large tournament both there and at Vineyards across the street.

many cars in the parking lots. That means lots of people were out enjoying some late summer golf. That tournament forced us (or allowed us, because I really do love this course) to make the drive out to Westfield to Pinehurst. It was our second time out there this year. The first was my worst round of the year. The greens absolutely ate me alive that day. This time, however, I knew what I was getting into and played quite well. I’m going to brag for just a second here. I was absolutely crushing the ball off the tee. Forgot what you might see on TV about every pro driving the ball 325+ yards. Joe Everyman can’t expect to do that. What I did, however, was average about 260 off the tee while keeping it on the fairway (or within feet of it anyway). It felt so good. Nick even commented right out of the gate that my swing looked much faster. I always tell people that you don’t have to swing harder to get more distance, you just have to swing faster. Club head speed is what it’s all about. That’s been my past several weeks of golf. There were only two rounds but they were both super enjoyable.

5 Cars That Don't Deserve Their Bad Reputation

Contributed Article Autotrader

Later today, I'm going to tell you about the Ferrari 348, which is a Ferrari that most people -- even many Ferrari fans -- don't really like all that much. I, on the other hand, have always kind of enjoyed the 348 -- and I don't think it really deserves its reputation as the "black sheep" of the Ferrari family. With that in mind, here are five other cars that have earned bad reputations over the years -- not rightfully, in my mind. You may disagree with me, and you may think that all these cars are just as horrible as everyone thinks ... but you'd be wrong.

Cadillac ELR For those of you who don't know the ELR, it's basically a Chevy Volt with a little extra power, some additional

luxury features, better styling and two fewer doors, which severely limit its practicality. It also had a $76,000 price tag, which led me to call it one of the all-time worst values in the car industry. And yet, it's on this list. Yes, that's right: The same guy who recently said the Cadillac ELR was a truly horrible value is now saying it doesn't deserve its bad reputation -- and here's why: While the ELR made no sense with its $76,000 price tag, it had a handsome design and a futuristic, plug-in hybrid powertrain -- and now that it's depreciated into the $30,000 range, it's no longer such a bad value. If I was looking for a stylish electric car, I'd consider it.

Ford Flex If you're a casual observer and you've seen the Ford Flex on the road, you probably think it's weird, unusual and possibly very ugly. In fact, most people I talk to tell me they think the Ford Flex is one of the strangest cars they can imagine -- and they can't believe anyone would buy it. But have you ever spoken to a Flex owner? They love the thing for its family-hauling capabilities, and for its, well, "flex"ibility. People love how big the interior is, how versatile it is and -- oh, yeah: You can get it with a 355-horsepower turbocharged engine that sends it from 0 to 60 in 6.2

seconds.

Mercedes-Benz R-Class The Mercedes-Benz R-Class has been maligned for various reasons over the years -- mainly its styling, which virtually everyone complains about, but also its performance, and the mere idea of a "minivan" from a luxury brand like Mercedes-Benz. But I recently spent some time with the ultra-rare R63 AMG, and I was stunned to find out just how versatile the R63 is. It has giant rear doors for easy access, ultrasimple seats designed to facilitate adults climbing in the third row and a highly comfortable interior. Best of all, used R-Class models are surprisingly cheap -- though maintaining them might not be.

Nissan Cube The Cube has been maligned virtually since it debuted in 2009 for its unusual

styling and its boxy profile. But I briefly owned a Cube, and I'm happy to report ... it's not so bad. In fact, it's pretty good. The boxy design means tons of headroom, and the unusual styling, while odd, is at least not boring-- like so many cars are today. Most importantly, the Cube is cheap to buy and cheap to own, and it has a lot of cargo room, so you can stick your stuff inside. No, I'm not telling you to rush out and buy a Cube -- but they aren't as bad as you think.

Toyota Solara Convertible Most car enthusiasts mock the Toyota Solara convertible for the simple fact that it's a big, dull convertible whose styling gives it rather unwieldy proportions. I've spoken to car enthusiasts who simply can't understand why someone would get a Solara instead of a Z4 or an Audi TT. Well, here's why: Some people want four seats, don't want to spend BMW money (or deal with BMW maintenance), and don't need a car that constantly delivers excitement. Instead, they just want to put down the top and relax -- and the Solara convertible does a great job delivering precisely that.
