climates. This is due to the fact that small businesses are often very customer-oriented. Many local customers will remain loyal to their favorite small businesses in the midst of an economic crisis. This loyalty means that small businesses are often able to stay afloat during tough times, which can further strengthen local economies. Small businesses also accumulate less revenue than larger corporations, meaning they may have less to lose in times of economic crisis. Schools and Local Government Offices When consumers patronize local small businesses, they are essentially giving money back to their local community. A thriving local business will generate high levels of revenue, which means that the business will pay higher taxes, including local taxes. This money is then used for local police and fire departments as well as schools. Future Growth Small businesses do not always stay small. Large corporations, such as Nike and Ben and Jerry’s, started off as small businesses that grew to become major players in the national and international marketplace. Many computer-industry leaders began as “tinkerers,” working on hand-assembled machines out of their garages. Microsoft is a prime example of how a small business idea can change the world. Small businesses that grow into large businesses often remain in the community in which the business was first established. Having a large corporation headquartered in a community can further help provide employment and stimulate the local economy.

So I finally bought this stuff and brought it home. That same day a miracle happened in our house, all three children, and my husband, took a three hour nap. At the same time. It was painting time. With just the first stroke of paint I was amazed. I had never seen paint cover this well, especially on dark wood. The entire project took an hour or less. And only one coat of paint! There wasn’t any sanding or prep walk whatsoever, and it looks perfect. Our house didn’t even smell like paint, and this paint dried within another hour.

CAMPUS PLANNING, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 you all the information you need when the time comes to make the decision. There are many things to take into account – distance from home, class and major offerings, extracurricular activities, and of course cost play a role. Many students opt to start out at a community college to save money and later transfer to a four-year school. Equally so, there are plenty of students who hit the ground running at their choice school right off the bat. Neither choice is right or wrong; the key is making the choice that’s right for you and your future. As you delve into the world of higher education, be sure to keep yourself educated - pun intended. There are many
forms, fees, meetings, applications, etc., that have sensitive deadlines to adhere to. High school guidance counselors and college admissions offices are great resources for this information, as well as the Internet. Just be sure to verify what you find online; not all of it is up to date or may not be pertinent for your specific situation. Our hope with The Campus Consultant is that it becomes a valuable resource to you. Pull out pages 15-26 and leave them on your coffee table. Check out each college and vocational school and find out what they have to offer. One of them is bound to fit your needs, or at least get you pointed in the right direction.

Rev. Michael Lokietek Family Church Fredonia fcfredonia.org
Keeping the Faith Dear Pastor, I was raised as a non-drinking Christian and am away at college now. Isn’t it okay to drink if you’re not drinking to get drunk? Your question brings up issues that are often discussed within the Body of Christ. First, let’s address the “alcohol as sin” issue. Although the Bible doesn’t come right out and say that drinking alcohol is sin, we must examine what God does say, and come to the best conclusion that we can. First, let’s get this out of the way. There’s little debate about whether being drunk is okay. The Bible says that we aren’t to be drunk or a heavy drinker. Ephesians 5:18, amongst other scriptures (1 Col. 5:11, Rom. 13:13, and Gal. 5:17), indicates, “And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation, but be filled with the Holy Spirit.” Another translation (NLT) says not to be drunk because “it will ruin your life.” Chapter 1 in Titus gives us the qualifications of a church elder (a person in a position of authority)
including not being “given to wine” or in other words, a heavy drinker. The Bible also talks about being an example to others including to those who may be struggling in a particular area. In Romans 14 the Apostle Paul indicates that we’re to consider those weaker than us when making decisions about how we live our lives. Romans 14:21 says that it’s not good to “…eat meat or drink wine or do anything by which your brother stumbles, or is offended or is made weak.” Basically, this chapter is warning us to not destroy our good example as a follower of Christ by giving someone weaker an excuse to sin. It’s human nature to look around and use others’ decisions to rationalize our own, even if it hurts us! So, to put this in context, you have to decide what kind of example you want to be and how important alcohol is in your life. While you may “not be drinking to get drunk”…it can happen. If the legal limit for a DWI is approximately 2 drinks per hour, is one only half-drunk? Do you really need alcohol to socialize or relax?

In creating a connection, we are in turn presenting the child with a form of diversion. This diversion is a necessary element to the Mind-Body connection, or Psychoneuroimmunology. Continued studies have shown that when the mind is stimulated and engaged, the body can respond in positive ways—more tolerable nausea, lower fever, higher blood counts and a more relaxed patient. This holds great importance for our seriously ill children. The “Mikey’s Way Connection Cart” circles the pediatric floors of hospitals giving away all forms of electronics that permit the child to create their own diversion and thus allow for the Mind-Body connection.

I Want To Lose Weight, But Where Do I Turn?
wedged itself between fitness, and their life. They have similar desires; to lose weight, not necessarily for aesthetics, but for longevity and quality of life. In all things, people are destroyed for a lack of knowledge. Fitness included. I’m grateful these women felt comfortable enough to turn and ask for help. These situations are tricky; there are no cookie cutter answers, no one step solutions. All we can do is point people in the right direction, encourage and hope they take By Brad Jarrett heed to the advice given. Contributing Writer With this in mind, two key concepts we unpacked. First of As I was considering the topic all, FITNESS NEEDS TO BE FUN. One basic question we for this week’s article, it became apparent what the focus ask is, “Have you tried to reach needed to be. Within two days fitness goals before”. Most will respond “Yes, and I came close 3 women asked me the same to succeeding, but fell off toquestion, “What do I do”. wards the end.” We then ask, They’ve tried to lose weight, “What part of your routine but got stuck. Whether it was job, kids, or lifestyle, something did you enjoy? What did you
lose yourself in?” There will be as many answers as there are people on the planet, but most are able to think of something they truly enjoyed. We emphatically respond “Then do it!! Have fun!!” Fitness wasn’t made to be boring. In fact, you’re doing yourself a disservice if it is. Who wants to spend an hour a day in the gym doing something they don’t enjoy? It makes no sense. That hour would be better spent elsewhere with family, and friends, growing you in the other pillars of fitness. So find something that speaks to you, whether it’s dancing, running, playing basketball, or tennis, the activity doesn’t matter; how you enjoy it does. You see, most people do things for one of two reasons; to avoid pain, or find pleasure. As you’ll come to find out, exercising to find pleasure will be much more enjoyable than doing it to avoid pain.
It’s your choice, but I choose pleasure over pain. Gym goers are able to stick to an unenjoyable routine for a few months, but once the initial excitement of starting a new workout fades, they are left feeling drained instead of energized. This is why people come SO CLOSE to their goals, without reaching them. At this point, all it takes is a single “crisis” or “trial” in another area of life, and they forget about exercise, no matter how close they are to achieving goals. The second idea is finding motivation that uniquely speaks to you. It will look different for everyone, and that’s the beauty of it. Personally, I am motivated by the thought of becoming the WHO I was created to be, in order to do the WHAT I was created to do. That’s my ultimate Activprayer, and a concept that guides the way I
live. For others, the idea means nothing. Take the aforementioned women, their motivation is centered on longevity and quality of life; to see their grandkids marry, and be selfsufficient women long into their latter years. Finding motivation is critical; it’s the driving force behind consistency. On snowy and cold days, no one wants to go to the gym, but as soon as your unique motivation comes to mind, you will. You’ll come to find out; specific exercises don’t matter as much as the fundamental principles lying beneath them. Calories can be burned in a million different ways, but the best weight loss program will do NOTHING if without motivation, and finding joy in what you do. What’s your why? What do you enjoy? Fitness Will Be Greater.
Breast Cancer Awareness Month Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk started in 1984 sponsored by the American Cancer Society with nearly 300 communities across the country participating, raising more than $685 million to fight breast cancer. Jamestown hosts an event Sunday, October 25, Erie does tomorrow, Saturday, October 10 and Buffalo will Saturday, October 17. These two organizations are By Tonja Dodd just a couple examples - there Contributing Writer are many more national and local organizations that sponsor special events, fundraisers and We have come a long way with convenient access to screening raising awareness of breast so that every woman hears the cancer with the movement message. starting in the early 1980s, well over 30 years ago. For instance, But what exactly is the message? I had a hard time sorting the Susan G. Komen foundathat out as the US Preventive tion was a global leader of the breast cancer movement and has Services Task Force is currently reviewing the latest scientific invested more than $1.9 billion in breast cancer awareness since evidence on regular screening - that is when to get your first its inception in 1982. Making
mammogram and how often to have it done. What is very clear is that every woman should talk to her doctor to determine risk for breast cancer, when to get that first mammogram and how often to get a mammogram. Because as more studies are done, more data collected, better technology, diagnostics and treatment created, the evidence does change and thus doctors are expected to offer guidance to patients based on the most current evidence. Also the doctor will review personal health history, family health history, health habits and health beliefs which are all critical in deciding what is the best for you. Your doctor will perform a regular clinical breast exam as well to screen for signs of breast cancer. As far as mammograms go, experts state that for most women
the first mammogram should be administered between age 40 and 49. It is also recommended that every woman between the ages of 50 and 74 should get a mammogram every two years. A mammogram is an x-ray picture of the breast tissue. This test may find tumors that are too small to feel and find cancers early, which in turn can be treated quickly with an excellent survival rate. It is also recommended that if a woman experiences any signs of breast cancer to get checked immediately. The most common symptom of breast cancer is a new lump, mass or firm feeling in or near your breast or under your arm. A change in the size or shape of your breast, or swelling of all or part of a breast (even if no distinct lump is felt) may be a sign as well. Also nipple changes, discharge
or pain in the nipple and finally, skin changes such as itchy, scaly, dimpled or puckered skin can all be signs of breast cancer. Believe it or not there are things you can do to reduce your risk for getting breast cancer. You cannot change risk factors like your age, race, personal health history, family history or genetics, but you can watch how much you drink, maintain a healthy weight and exercise. Obesity and drinking alcohol have both been linked to breast cancer. If you are obese, here is another reason to lose weight - even reducing you weight by 5 - 10% is significant - start by reducing portion size. Cut back on drinking if you do drink log your drinking habits to get started. Exercising regularly has shown to protect you against breast cancer. Get out and walk today!

FOUR COMMON MISTAKES, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 17 of the most challenging courses offered by the school into one semester. Not only will it be hard to devote the attention needed for each class, you may leave yourself little time to take on other projects and internships that could also benefit your future. Bad Money Management College is expensive, and beyond the expenses you already know about -- tuition, books, and housing -- you will incur many other expenses along the way, from lab fees to gas to cell phone bills. “Setting up a budget is crucial, particularly if your spending money is drawn from a loan or grant,” says John Rasmussen, head of Education Financial Services at Wells Fargo. “You’ll need that money to last if you don’t have another stream of revenue.” Don’t form bad financial habits now, as do so many college students. Take advantage of free resources, such as Wells Fargo’s Get College Ready site, to learn more about banking, building good credit and paying for college. The site features tips, and tools such as My Money Map, which offers a way to track spending, set budgeting goals and monitor savings. It also offers advice on topics like renters insurance and student loans. Visit mrm.wellsfargobank.com/getcollegeready/ to learn more. Not Sleeping Between cramming and socializing, shuteye may be in short supply. However, quality sleep is fundamental to quality learning. If you’re a night owl, avoid early morning classes. Also, avoid procrastination, which can lead to all-nighters. College lasts just a few years but what you do there can affect your life for years to come. Use your independence to make smart decisions that are good for your future.

Do You Know How Much College Will Really Cost Your Family? StatePoint Paying for college? Look beyond the tuition price tag when making your financial plans and you will encounter many expenses not listed in school brochures. Be aware of these costs. Determine in advance how you’ll pay for them and even consider how you may save money. With some smart preparation, you can avoid unpleasant surprises. Here are some things to keep in mind when assessing college costs and financing options: Financing No matter what your family’s financial status is, you should complete the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) form, which is the first step toward obtaining financial aid. Also explore additional financing options, like scholarships, tuition payment plans your school offers, federal loans and private alternative loans. Millions of Americans are faced with a rising amount of student loan debt. Make graduating debt-free your objective and only take out loans by necessity. After receiving award letters, scholarships and grants, calculate whether there is still a financial gap between your resources and the cost of college. Take out a private student loan only after exhausting these other resources and efforts first. If you do opt for a private loan, ensure you’re familiar with the loan’s terms, as well as the realities of graduating with debt. A responsible lender CONTINUED ON PG 26

Helping High Schoolers Prep for College Entrance Exams StatePoint Whether taking the SAT, the ACT or both, excelling on college entrance exams can significantly strengthen one’s school applications. While students need to take personal initiative when prepping for these crucial tests, families can lend a helping hand in many ways. Prioritizing Study Time Good study habits are important for academic achievement and will come in handy in college. They are also especially important during college exam preparation. Ensure your student has a quiet area to study for the big day, free of distractions like televisions, squabbling siblings and social media. A study schedule should be practical. If possible, consider giving your student a free pass from chores on days he or she takes a full practice test -- this will require several hours and be mentally taxing. The Right Tools Mathematical coursework, test-taking and preparation require the right gear. Set up your student for achievement with scientific and graphing calculators that feature a range of high-level functions. Remember, some questions in the math sections of the SAT can’t be solved without a scientific or graphing calculator. Choose one that is right for the task. For example, Casio’s CLASSWIZ fx-991EX is the first scientific calculator to feature spreadsheet functionality. It enables users to create spreadsheets with up to five columns and 45 rows. It can also convert graphs into QR codes which can be displayed on a projector screen, allowing students to work seamlessly with their teacher

It offers a competitive APY and a rewards program that includes cash bonuses, matching rewards and other cash back rewards from more than 850 retail partners. For more information, visit www. UpromiseGoalSaver.com. Goals and Contributions Check out rates of tuition, room and board, and other expenses at the schools of your choice, so you can set realistic goals and target dates for reaching them. Motivation can be derived from progress, so within your savings account
consider itemizing smaller benchmarks that are more easily achieved than one lump sum -- such as textbooks, an emergency fund and a living expenses goal or specific savings goals for each child. Applying the old adage, “Set it and forget it,” to your college savings can make saving a habit you don’t have to think about often. You can do so by linking a bank account to your savings fund, like Upromise GoalSaver, to make recurring direct deposits on a monthly or biweekly basis. Some people keep themselves focused on savings by sharing goals over social media. Like losing weight or training for a marathon, research shows that mak-
ing a goal public is associated with a higher chance of achievement. Some savings accounts even make sharing goals easy. Tax Advantaged Savings Plans After getting started with a simple savings account like Upromise GoalSaver, supplement your savings plan with a tax advantaged savings account, such as Coverdell Education Savings Accounts, prepaid state plans or 529 college savings plans. Such plans can offer such benefits as annual non-deductible contributions so that your account can grow without being subject to federal income taxes.

on subjects like paying for college, managing money and building good credit while in school. When putting a price tag on college, don’t forget to budget for other certain and potential expenses like a mobile phone plan, medical insurance, lab fees and class materials. Save Money After tallying up college costs, you may encounter practical ways to reduce expenditures. For instance, you can save on big ticket items by
attending your state school at the in-state tuition rate or by living at home. Save on day-to-day living costs by biking instead of driving and buying textbooks used. Get a smaller meal plan and prepare some meals in your apartment. There’s no doubt about it, college is expensive.

Despite some less-than-ideal weather conditions, Cassadaga Country Club held a pair of golf tournaments over the weekend. On Saturday, the course held its annual Big Cup Tournament. The tournament is all about fun. Some of the holes are exceptionally small while others are many times larger than the average cup. There was even a hexagon-shaped cup this year. (Editor’s note: see pictures above for size comparisons) First place in the tournament was taken by the team of Brian Blizzard, Darren Mangine, Chip White and Steve Wintersteen. In second place was the team of Tyler Lerow, Rod Lind, Tim Bulger and Brenton Wilcox. Yes, it was 45 degrees and raining, but everyone had a great time, even if they did have to take the occasional trip to the clubhouse just to warm up.
On Sunday afternoon, Cassadaga Country Club was home to the 6th Annual State University of New York at Fredonia Business Club Golf Tournament. Proceeds from the event went to support the university’s business club, including the trip the group will take to New York City later in the academic year. The event featured nine holes of golf followed by a dinner of beef on weck, potato salad, pasta salad, baked beans and an assorted cookie platter. Fredonia’s Business Club’s mission is to provide members with the resources that will enable them to make a more informed choice of a major or career, and to provide contacts with business professionals regarding how members can best prepare for the job market, as well as leadership roles at Fredonia and in the community.

CHAUTAUQUA STAR FRIDAY, OCTOBER 9, 2015
SELF-PROCLAIMED EXPERT, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 27 the NFL. With more than a third of the league at 2-2, parity certainly reigns supreme. The self-proclaimed expert is going to try to be more concise and less longwinded this week. Ready? To the picks! BYE WEEK: Miami Dolphins, Minnesota Vikings, New York Jets, Carolina Panthers
INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (2-2) at HOUSTON TEXANS (1-3) These might just be the two most under-achieving teams through four weeks. The Colts barely beat the Titans and needed overtime to beat the Jaguars. The Texans won nine games last year, but have been horrendous this year, including a ravenous beatdown at the hands of the Falcons last week. Andrew Luck was out last week, which is certainly notable, but for a team with Super Bowl aspirations, they still should have been able to handle lowly Jacksonville. On a short week, it’s uncertain if Luck will play in this one. Either way, the 26th ranked rushing attack and 27th ranked scoring offense need to improve. Houston, of course, has quarterback issues of its own. Ryan Mallet has a lowly 65.3 quarterback rating. In case you’re curious, that’s terrible. It’s hard to call this one not knowing if Luck is going to play in this one. I’ll go with the home team on a short week with injury concerns for both teams. PICK VS. SPREAD: Texans (even). STRAIGHT PICK: Texans.
CHICAGO BEARS (1-3) at KANSAS CITY CHIEFS (1-3) For a game featuring a combined two wins, this game should be pretty good.
Jay Cutler is back for Chicago and looked pretty good in last week’s win. Kansas City has given up nearly 300 yards per game and 11 touchdowns through the air, so Cutler could be in line for a big game in this one. If he gets top receiver Alshon Jeffery back, look out. The Chiefs moved the ball in last week’s loss to the Bengals, but struggled to get the ball in the end zone. Kicker Cairo Santos hit all seven of his field goals, which was a boost in a terrible kicking week across the NFL. Alex Smith has been sacked 18 times, which is way too many. The Bears don’t have a fierce pass rush, but that offensive line absolutely has to improve. This could be a good game to pick some players for fantasy football. The Chiefs and Bears are tied for the 31st ranked scoring defense. Yeah, that’s last in the league. The spread is way too big in this game. PICK VS. SPREAD: Bears (+11). STRAIGHT PICK: Chiefs.
gals two dual-threat backs that have been giving teams headaches. Andy Dalton might have a tough time keeping up his passer rating of 123.0 against this Seattle defense, but I like the Bengals to win with the Seahawks coming off a short week and coming east. PICK VS. SPREAD: Bengals (-2.5). STRAIGHT PICK: Bengals.
WASHINGTON FOOTBALL TEAM (2-2) at ATLANTA FALCONS (4-0) Another of the league’s undefeated teams plays at home with a chance to take over first place in the NFC South with the Panthers on bye. The Falcons might have their hands full with the Football Team, however. Washington is the No. 1 rushing team in the league with nearly 140 yards per game. Both Alfred Morris and Matt Jones have reached the 200 yards mark on the ground. Tight end Jordan Reed did suffer a right knee injury, so that’s something to keep an eye on. SEATTLE SEAHAWKS (2-2) at The Falcons’ offense has been among CINCINNATI BENGALS (4-0) the best in the league with 34.2 points What is it about Monday Night Footper game. They’ve done it through the ball in Seattle? The Seahawks were gift air with Matt Ryan and Julio Jones wrapped another win thanks to referee and they’ve done it on the ground with ineptitude.

The Bengals are playing their typical early-season football where they look like world beaters. They’re in the top 10 in almost everything. They’re fourth in points for (30.2 per game), ninth in points against (19.2), fourth in passing yards (294.0) and seventh in rushing yards (128.0). A.J. Green leads a JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS (1-3) deep receiving corp that will test even Seattle’s dominant secondary. Giovani at TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS Bernard and Jeremy Hill give the Ben- (1-3)
And here’s your runaway winner for “Game That No One Cares About” for this week. Seriously, do I even need to write about this one? The Jaguars have scored just 15.5 points per game. Blake Bortles has a completion percentage just over 50 percent. The defense has given up nearly 300 yards per game through the air. The Jags are terrible. Perhaps the only team worse resides in Tampa. The Bucs are 27th in scoring offense and 30th in scoring defense. You don’t have to be a mathematician to realize that those numbers won’t equal success. Jamies Winston has struggled with turnovers with seven interceptions and three fumbles already. He’s had a completion percentage under 50 percent in two of his four games. Someone has to win, right? PICK VS. SPREAD: Jaguars (+2.5). STRAIGHT PICK: Bucs.
NEW ORLEANS SAINTS (1-3) at PHILADELPHIA EAGLES (1-3) Here’s a game between two teams desperate for a win. If the Saints lose, it’ll probably mean the end of their season. Two teams in the NFC South are already at four wins. Drew Brees’ stats looked okay after last week’s overtime win, but a good portion came on a dump off to C.J. Spiller that went 80 yards for the game-winning touchdown. It’s hard to say if Brees’ shoulder is fully healed because he wasn’t throwing the ball deep at all. Even if he’s healthy, the defense can’t keep giving up 26 points per game. The Eagles looked like they were going to win last week before giving up a late touchdown. Sam Bradford threw three touchdowns and zero interceptions for a 122.6 quarterback rating. But he also only completed 15/28 passes and was sacked five times. The running game was *slightly* better with 4.8 yards per carry. DeMarco Murray came back after missing a game and picked up 36 yards on the ground and is up to 29 carries for 47 yards (1.6 average) on the CONTINUED ON PG 32

SELF-PROCLAIMED EXPERT, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 31 season. Maybe you shouldn’t complain about lack of touches when it would take you seven carries to pick up a first down. The Eagles pass defense is a wreck. The Saints unit might be even worse (116.3 opponents’ passer rating). That said, I think Murray finally breaks out. PICK VS. SPREAD: Saints (+5.5). STRAIGHT PICK: Eagles.

ST. LOUIS RAMS (2-2) at GREEN BAY PACKERS (4-0) After knocking off one of the previously undefeated NFC teams on the road last week, the Rams draw another in Green Bay. The Rams have always seemed to give trouble to teams within their own division, but struggle outside of the NFC West. Of course, now they have a healthy Todd Gurley, who went off for 146 yards on just 19 carries against CLEVELAND BROWNS (1-3) at Arizona last week.

Rock-N-Roll Speedway Reunion To Be Held in Frewsburg Contributed Article Chautauqua Sports Hall of Fame
The Chautauqua Sports Hall of Fame, the Carroll Historical Society, and the Myers Memorial Library, with assistance from the Chautauqua Region Community Foundation, will hold a gathering for all persons interested in the history of Rock-N-Roll Speedway on Sunday, October 25. The reunion will be held at the Carroll Historical Society, located behind the Town Hall on Main Street, in Frewsburg at 1:30 p.m. Rock-N-Roll Speedway was built by Joel Anderson on his property on Oak Hill Road just past the radio tower in the Town of Carroll. The jalopy track was in operation from 1957 to 1960. The reunion is open to the public with a special invitation extended to anyone who may have competed, attended or worked at the speedway. The organizing committee plans to videotape those attendees who are willing to share their remembrances. Persons with movies, photos, or other Rock-N-Roll memorabilia are asked to bring those items. Following the gathering at the Carroll Historical Society building, the group will visit the site of the former speedway. Bob Anderson, son of Joel Anderson, will lead a tour of the property. Former Rock-N-Roll racer, Fred Clark, who had great success at the Frewsburg oval, is among the expected guests. Refreshments will be served. For questions about the Rock-N-Roll Speedway reunion, please contact Chautauqua Sports Hall of Fame president Randy Anderson at 716-640-6219.

him and defenseman Zach Bogosian in a trade with Winnipeg. ''We finished 30th and we're trying to improve. And I think on paper we have improved,'' general manager Tim Murray said. ''I'm quite confident we're going to get a lot better. I'm just not quite sure what that means yet.'' Some things to look out for from a team that's missed the playoffs for four consecutive seasons: THEY LIKE EICH At 18, Eichel has made a quick impression with his effortless skating style and playmaking skills. He led Buffalo with six points (two goals, four assists) in four preseason games with both goals scored short-handed. Eichel has a chance to ease into life in the NHL after accepting an offer to live with veteran teammate Matt Moulson and his family. DAN'S THE MAN Bylsma is back behind the NHL bench following a year hiatus, and after five-plus seasons in Pittsburgh where he led the Penguins to the Stanley Cup in 2009. In Buffalo, Bylsma gets to place his own stamp on a new-look team after inheriting the Sidney Crosby-led Penguins midway through the 2008-09 season. He replaces Ted Nolan who was fired after last season, and becomes the Sabres' third coach since Lindy Ruff was fired in February 2013. The Sabres turned their attention to Bylsma after losing out
on landing former Red Wings coach Mike Babcock, who elected to go to Toronto. BETWEEN THE PIPES The Sabres gave up a first-round draft pick to acquire Lehner in June in a bid to settle a position that's been in flux since Ryan Miller was traded to St. Louis in February 2014. Lehner has a 30-26-15 NHL career record and went 9-12-3 with Ottawa last season before being sideline by a concussion. The 24-year-old Lehner is familiar with Murray, who was the Senators assistant GM when the goalie helped Ottawa's AHL affiliate, Binghamton, win the 2011 Calder Cup. The Sabres have had seven goalies start at least one game since Miller's departure. SHIFTING LINES O'Reilly and Eichel will center Buffalo's top two lines, allowing Tyler Ennis and Zemgus Girgensons to shift to the wings. Eichel spent time in the preseason on a line with Moulson and Girgensons. O'Reilly was playing alongside Ennis and Kane. FRANCHISE LOWS Buffalo lost 51 games in each of the past two seasons - both franchise lows. The Sabres scored 150 goals in 2013-14, the fewest in a season (minimum 74 games) since the NHL expanded from its Original Six teams in 1967. Buffalo scored 153 last year, the third-lowest total behind 151 goals scored by Tampa Bay in 199798.
many as 12 players who weren't in Buffalo for last year's season opener. The list of newcomers begins with Eichel, the Boston University center who was selected with the No. 2 pick in the draft, who has already begun shown flashes of why NHL scouts and team executives regarded him to be ''a once-in-a-generation'' talent. Other new additions include center Ryan O'Reilly (acquired with forward Jamie McGinn in a trade with Colorado), goalie Robin Lehner (acquired with veteran forward David Legwand in a trade with Ottawa) and free-agent defenseman Cody Franson. There's also hard-hitting, playmaking forward Evander Kane, who was sidelined by a season-ending shoulder injury in February when Buffalo acquired

CHAUTAUQUA STAR FRIDAY, OCTOBER 9, 2015
SELF-PROCLAIMED EXPERT, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 32 week is the penalties the Bills accrued in last week’s loss to the Giants. There were 17 of them, two of which brought back Buffalo touchdowns. The team is also reeling from injuries. LeSean McCoy and Sammy Watkins both missed last week’s game and now stud rookie Karlos WIlliams, who has scored a touchdown in each of the team’s four games, may be out with a concussion. It’s so bad that Buffalo is working out Trent Ricahrdson. Yikes. Tyrod Taylor wasn’t particularly sharp, but he’s thrown his eight touchdown to seven different receivers, which proves he’s not getting locked into one guy, like young quarterbacks are known to do. The Titans defense is nothing special, so Taylor could have a nice game. The Titans have only beaten the lowly Bucs, but Buffalo is just banged up enough that this might be a game. Marcus Mariota will be facing the toughest test of his young career in the Bills defense, but he’s had two weeks to prepare thanks to the bye. Looking at the Titans’ roster, there’s not a ton of talent there. Bishop Sankey hasn’t shown much as the lead back. Kendall Wright hasn’t lived up the hype at receiver. Anthony Fasano and Delanie Walker are good, not great, tight ends. The defense features former Bills safety Da’Norris Searcy, so that’s something. The Bills defense is just too good to allow Mariota to score many points. The Bills offense will struggle, too, but Buffalo will prevail. PICK VS. SPREAD: Bills (-1). STRAIGHT PICK: Bills.
ARIZONA CARDINALS (3-1) at DETROIT LIONS (0-4) After starting the season 3-0, the Cardinals were anointed by many as the class of the NFC. Consider this: the three wins were against New Orleans, Chicago and San Francisco — arguably the three worst teams in the NFC. Then they were beat at home by the mediocre Rams. So what are the Cardinals? Will we have any better idea if they blow out the lowly Lions? One thing is for sure: the Cardinals are
betting on an awful lot of aged players with Carson Palmer, Chris Johnson and Larry Fitzgerald among the top offensive threats. Looking past the fact that the Lions got shafted pretty good by the zebras on Monday night, there’s no escaping the fact that this Lions team is playing very poorly. They managed a total of zero offensive touchdowns in that game in Seattle. Matthew Stafford has taken a notable step backwards this season. Calvin Johnson is having a hard time getting open. Oh and the running game is easily the worst in the league. Arizona’s defense is good enough to continue Detroit’s struggles. PICK VS. SPREAD: Cardinals (-2.5). STRAIGHT PICK: Cardinals.
DENVER BRONCOS (4-0) at OAKLAND RAIDERS (2-2) Denver’s defense continues to get the job done as the Broncos remain undefeated despite an underwhelming offense. Denver is second is the NFL, allowing just 17.2 points per game. Peyton Manning is taking some heat as the passing attack is just 25th in the league, but it’s the running game that is actually worse at 29th with under 80 yards per game. That’s not the way it was supposed to be. The Raiders are coming off an inexcusable loss to the lowly Bears. The Raiders and their fans thought this team was turning the corner, but that loss proved that Oakland has a long way to go to compete with the likes of Denver. Quarterback Derek Carr has skill, no NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS (3doubt, but there’s just not enough talent 0) at DALLAS COWBOYS (2-2) on either side of the ball quite yet for this team to flourish. The Cowboys are reeling after losing Tony Romo, Dez Bryant and now If I were a betting man, I’d put running back Lance Dunbar to injury. some money on this game. The Surely a visit from the Patriots, who spread is simply far too small. PICK are coming off the bye, is the furthest VS.

As one of three NFC East teams sitting at 2-2, the season is far from over for Dallas, but this is going to be a tough game for Big D. The Patriots don’t plan on losing any time soon, especially after a bye. SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS at NEW They’re healthy. They’re talented. YORK GIANTS (2-2) They’re fresh. They’re angry.

The 49ers, on the other hand, are com-
ing off of three straight losses thanks to a floundering offense. After throwing four interceptions against the Cardinals, Colin Kaepernick and the 49ers managed just three points against the Packers. San Fran’s 158.8 passing yards per game is dead last in the NFL, as is their 12 points per game. How long ago that Week 1 victory seems now. This is a pretty easy one to call. The Giants even got their running game going last week. They’ll take care of business at home. PICK VS. SPREAD: Giants (-7). STRAIGHT PICK: Giants.
PITTSBURGH STEELERS (2-2) at SAN DIEGO CHARGERS (2-2) Monday Night Football gives us two AFC hopefuls looking to get over .500. The Steelers offense continues to change shape as the team welcomes back wide receiver Martavis Bryant from a four-game suspension. They missed Le’Veon Bell for a couple games and he’s been an animal since his return. Of course, they’re still without quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. Michael Vick will start under center again. Bryant caught eight touchdowns in just 10 games last season. He’ll pair with Antonio Brown to form a very dangerous duo. The Chargers got a much-needed win against Cleveland last week, but didn’t play particularly well. Though Phillip Rivers did a better job of keeping care of the football after turnovers plagued him the first three games. Keenan Allen has been among the best receivers in the league and the Chargers get Antonio Gates back this week. The passing attack should be able to thrive against the Steelers, who have a great pass rush but a suspect secondary. This should be a great game and a fun way to end Week 5. I actually really like both teams, but I’m going to go with the underdog. PICK VS. SPREAD: Steelers (+3). STRAIGHT PICK: Steelers.

Alfred Edges Blue Devils, 1-0
Contributed Article FSU Sports Information Dept.
Richard Lander scored in the 24th minute and Chris Gutierrez made two saves in rapid succession as Alfred defeated Fredonia, 1-0, in non-conference men's soccer at University Stadium. Lander pounced when Fredonia goalkeeper Austin Santor (Chazy, N.Y.) lost the handle on a cross from the right corner by another Alfred player. The goal was Lander's eighth of the season. Gutierrez stopped a penalty kick by Fredonia's Ryan Keller (East Aurora, N.Y.) in the 75th minute. The rebound went to Aaron Hayes (Hamburg, N.Y.) and Gutierrez stopped that shot, too. They were his only two saves in the game. Santor finished with five saves while Keller took four shots to lead the Blue Devils, who fell to 1-8-2 heading into a pair of SUNYAC home games this weekend -- 3 p.m. Friday vs. Oswego, 1 p.m. Saturday vs. Cortland.
