On October 22, a group of local bowlers will host the 9th annual Framed in Pink: Bowling Over Breast Cancer at the Jamestown Bowling Company. This charity event will support local breast cancer care at UPMC Chautauqua WCA through their endowment fund at WCA Foundation and pay tribute to loved ones who have battled this deadly disease. “I think this is a fantastic opportunity to raise awareness of breast cancer here in our community,” says Sue Lamb, event coordinator. “We all have a loved one who has battled breast cancer. We are committed to honor those loved ones, promote good breast health, benefit local breast cancer care, and have a good time! Our goal is to reach $10,000 this year, over our $9,000 that we raised last year.” The committee is still accepting basket donations for the day of the event. You can contact Sue Lamb at 484-8144 and a member of her committee can pick up the basket or donation. We encourage everyone in the community to stop down and support this cause and take part in the basket raffle. "The day is filled with so much support, encouragement and of course tons of fun, myself along with my committee members are so honored and excited to be part of such an amazing event. You don't want to miss out in stopping down at Jamestown Bowling Co. Sun.

Persell Middle School 8th Graders Conduct Experiment Contributed Article JPS
Persell Middle School eighth graders in Lina Scoma’s AT Science Living Environment class recently worked as teams on a “Making Connections State Lab.” As part of the lab, students were using the scientific method to design an experiment. Students determined “How does exercise before clothespin squeezing effect the rate of clothespin squeezing?" Students formulated a hypothesis, designed an experiment, created data tables and made conclusions based on their data. “Students learn so much more through hands-on science experiences,” said Mrs. Scoma. “I feel like when they are ‘doing’ science, it becomes much more than memorization.

Lake Erie Wine Country Celebrates a Successful Harvest and Welcomes two new Wineries Contributed Article Lake Erie Wine Country
Lake Erie Wine Country is the modern name of an historic wine and grape region on the southern shore of Lake Erie in both Pennsylvania and New York. The wine trail organization, formerly called the “Chautauqua Lake Erie Wine Trail,” was established in 2002, but grapes have been grown in the region since the mid 1800’s. The grape belt consists of more than 30,000 acres of grapes, making it the largest grape-growing region east of the Rocky Mountains. It is the largest Concord grape region in the world. Today, Lake Erie Wine County boasts 22 unique wineries and hundreds of national and international wine quality awards. The wineries themselves have been evolving over the past few years to include other agricultural beverages such as distilled spirits, hard ciders, and microbrews. “Some of our wineries now provide wine-bythe-glass, seating areas, beautiful gift shops, extended hours, and a great variety of entertainment,” said Ellis. “On any given weekend throughout the year, visitors may find live music, vineyard walks, winemaker’s dinners, or wine and art events. We even have wineries that now provide food. That was unheard of just a few years ago.” Lake Erie Wine Country is a thriving destination for tourists and wine lovers, and it continues to grow. There is proof in the fact that several wineries are expanding their production and wine tasting areas. “Those who haven’t visited our region in the past couple of years will be pleasantly surprised to see the new facilities, events, beverages, and wine offerings,” said Ellis. A new winery has recently joined the organization. Yori Wine Cellars at 18 South Lake Street in downtown North East, PA is now open and will be participating in the wine trail’s next big event, Harvest Wine Celebration Weekends! Yori’s will serve Concord Grape Apple Crisp paired with their Traminette wine. Also, Lake Erie Wine Country welcomes back Woodbury Vineyards Winery, 3215 South Roberts Rd. in Fredonia, NY. Woodbury is open under new management and for Harvest Weekends will serve Pineapple Chicken Tenders paired with their Seaport White! Wine trail events are the perfect opportunity for visitors to tour the picturesque region. Lake Erie Wine Country’s wineries are currently wrapping up the grape harvest and preparing for their two Harvest Celebration Weekends, November 3-5 and November 10-12. Ticket holders will visit participating wineries where they can enjoy a special wine paired with a delicious “harvest” food sample. As in the past, ticket holders will also receive additional tastings, a wine glass, recipe booklet, a $5 voucher and a gift. Ticket holders will plan their own itinerary, enjoying a self-guided tour to each winery they choose to visit. Tickets are now on sale for the Harvest Celebration Weekends at $38 per person. One ticket is good for either Weekend #1 (November 3-5) or Weekend #2 (November 10-12). The regular $38 ticket is good for all three days. Advanced-sale ticket purchase is recommended as tickets are limited, and they are usually sold-out before the event begins. They may be purchased online at www.lakeeriewinecountry.org. Designated driver tickets are available for only $20 and include everything except wine. An alternate beverage is provided to designated drivers. The wine region now offers a Friday and/or Sunday only ticket for just $28. Hours for each of the two Harvest Celebration Weekends are: Friday, noon - 6 p.m. and Saturday, 10 a.m. – 6 p.m., and Sunday, 10 a.m. - 5 p.m. The food and wine sample pairings for all wineries can be found at www.la15 NORTH MAIN STREET keeriewinecountry.org along with detailed information on the double-weekend DUNKIRK, NY 14048 event. The website also lists events all year long for all regional wineries. Wineries are open year-around for tours and tastings. 716-366-8740

STEL Awarded $790K to Develop Supportive Housing Units in Chautauqua County Contributed Article Office of the County Executive
Southern Tier Environments for Living, Inc. (STEL) recently received two conditional awards from New York State to develop 35 supportive housing units in Chautauqua County through its Dunkirk Renovation and Ownership Program and proposed Gateway Lofts project. The awards were recently announced by New York State Governor Andrew M. Cuomo. They are part of his Empire State Supportive Housing Initiative (ESSHI), which is a $2.6 billion, five-year plan to develop 6,000 units of supportive housing across the state. STEL’s Dunkirk Renovation and Ownership Program is a multifamily affordable housing project that will be located at various sites in the eastern portion of the City of Dunkirk. It will involve the new construction of 11 buildings and the rehabilitation of 14 existing one and two-family houses to create a total of 49 units of affordable rental housing for low income individuals and families. Of these 49 units, the award
provides $165,000 for 10 units for homeless individuals with serious mental illness. “By receiving this funding, it will allow the 10 ESSHI units in our Dunkirk project to be affordable for households with incomes at or below 30 percent of the area median income,” said Thomas Whitney, Executive Director of STEL. “We anticipate closing on the construction loan for this project by the end of the year with construction starting soon after.” STEL was also awarded funding for its proposed Gateway Lofts project, which is still in the planning phase. This is a multifamily affordable housing project that would be located in Jamestown and include 74 housing units. Of these units, the award provides $625,000 for 25 units for individuals who are homeless and have a serious mental illness or a substance use disorder with a history of criminal offending or are at risk of offending. The project would be a collaboration among STEL, Community Helping Hands Inc., and Chautauqua County’s Department of Mental Hygiene and Department of Corrections. “All 25 of the ESSHI units for the proposed project in Jamestown would be affordable for households with
incomes at or below 50% of area median income and under this funding it would create affordable units for households with incomes at or below 30 percent,” said Whitney. “These ESSHI units are intended to be an alternative to incarceration. We have not secured all of our capital funds for this project, but New York State Senator Catharine Young has been an important asset in helping us achieve funding for this project.” “Increasing the number of supportive housing units in Chautauqua County has been one of my key priorities,” said Chautauqua County Executive Vince Horrigan. “These awards will help provide support “ services to individuals who are facing homelessness p and struggling with mental illnesses or drug addic- H tion. It will also help keep rent affordable for them as H r they get the services they need.” t Support services that would be provided through each of these projects include care management ser- S vices, employment services, linkages with community d providers, supportive counseling, and assistance in p w daily living skills development. t CONTINUED ON PAGE 9 F

Hearty Fall Food and Wine Ideas
Contributed Article StatePoint
When brisk autumn weather makes you wish for rich hearty meals, let New Zealand be the source of your culinary inspiration. The country’s dishes make for delicious fall feasting. Think earthy meats like lamb and rich roasted vegetables, paired with juicy mediumbodied red wines. Thanks to the development of six major grape growing regions with breathtaking landscapes, New Zealand has become a top destination for food and wine enthusiasts. While a trip halfway around the world may not be in the cards for you this fall, you can bring the classic flavors of New Zealand to your table by starting with a bottle from one of the country’s top wineries. Craggy Range Winery, a family-owned operation, creates New World wines with Old World style. The Te Muna Road Pinot Noir 2014 (SRP $44.99), a medium-bodied selection, is an enjoyable accompaniment at a fall gathering. Its rich red fruit, fine tannins and good acidity creates a savory, dry finish on the palate and pairs nicely with the many robust flavors of the season. For an appetizing pairing, consider serving Pinot Noir alongside a classic recipe from the Terrôir Restaurant at Craggy Range Winery: Roast lamb shoulder with salsa verde and roasted carrots. The wine’s bright red fruit will bring out the lamb’s darker, earthier notes for a delicious meal. Ingredients: • 1 boned lamb shoulder, rolled and tied. • 1 lg. onion (quartered) • 1 carrot (quartered) • 4 cups chicken stock For the brine: • 8 cups of water
• 1/2 cup salt • 2 tbsp. brown sugar • 3 bay leafs • 1/2 onion, sliced • 1/2 packet pickling spices For the Salsa Verde: • 1/2 cup Italian parsley • 1/2 cup mint • 1/4 cup cornichon pickles • 2 tbsp. capers • 1/2 cup olive oil • 2 lemons - juice and zest Brine Instructions: • 24 hours in advance: Add all the ingredients into a pot. Bring to a simmer at medium heat until all salt has dissolved. Allow brine to cool completely. Place the lamb in the cool brine, cover and leave for 24 hours. Drain the brine and pat dry. Instructions: • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. • Preheat a large skillet over medium heat for 3 to 5 minutes. Raise the heat to medium-high and add the lamb. Brown the lamb all over then remove from heat. • On a roasting tray, add carrot and onion. Then add 4 cups of hot chicken stock. • Place the lamb on top and then put in the oven to cook for 3 hours. • Remove lamb from the liquid, rest for 25 minutes. In the meantime, strain and skim the stock and reduce by 2/3rds. • For the salsa verde, blitz all ingredients in the food processor until smooth. • Slice the lamb and garnish with roasted baby carrots, salsa verde and some stock. Serve with a glass of Te Muna Road Pinot Noir.

Be ‘Bowled’ Over by These Satisfying, Healthful Lunches Contributed Article StatePoint
Strapped for time? By stocking the pantry well and setting aside some weekend prep time, you can create a whole week of great lunches in just an hour. One bowl wonders are perfect for toting to work or school or enjoying at home. Simply choose a grain, a hearty root vegetable, some good-for-you greens, a simple sauce and flavorful toppings, like olives. This Sweet Potato Tahini Bowl recipe conveniently yields 4-5 servings, perfect for an entire week. Ingredients: • 1 1/2 cups quinoa, rinsed • 2 2/3 cups vegetable broth • 1/2 cup Pearls Sliced Kalamata Olives or Whole Kalamata Olives, sliced Sweet Potato Ingredients: • 1 large sweet potato, peeled and chopped into 1/2 inch cubes • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil • 1/2 teaspoon salt • 1/4 teaspoon pepper Chickpea Ingredients: • 1 15-ounce can chickpeas, drained and rinsed • 2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder • 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt • 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper Kale Ingredients: • 5 cups roughly chopped kale • 2 large cloves garlic, minced • 2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil • 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper Tahini Dressing Ingredients: • 1/4 cup tahini • 2 tablespoons lemon juice • water as needed • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil Directions: • Bring quinoa and vegetable broth to boil in small heavy-bottomed saucepan
over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, until broth is absorbed, 15-20 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes. Fluff with fork. • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Toss sweet potato in olive oil, salt, and pepper and spread in even layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. • Toss chickpeas in olive oil and spices, and spread in even layer on a second parchment-lined baking sheet. • Place baking sheets in oven sideby-side, if possible (if not, rotate pans top to bottom, front to back halfway through). Roast chickpeas for 15 minutes. Continue roasting sweet potato for 15 minutes longer, until soft and starting to turn golden brown on edges. Remove from heat and set aside. • While sweet potatoes and chickpeas bake, heat 2 teaspoons olive oil over medium heat in large skillet. Add kale, garlic, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring, until kale begins to wilt, about 5-8 minutes. • Mix all the tahini dressing ingredients together in food processor or with whisk. If dressing is too thick, add water until it can be drizzled. • Assemble the bowls. Divide quinoa evenly. Top with chickpeas, sweet potato, kale, and slice Kalamata olives. Drizzle with tahini dressing and serve. Try making your own combinations with whole grain rice or wheat berries, spinach or any dark greens and winter squash. For a finishing kick of bold flavor, add your favorite olives, such as Pearls Garlic or Jalapeno Stuffed Queen Olives or Mixed Greek Medley. Get unstuck from your lunch rut with single bowl meals, which are versatile, healthful and convenient.

5 Mistakes to Avoid When Choosing a Medicare Advantage Plan Contributed Article NewsUSA
The Medicare Annual Election Period takes place this fall from Oct. 15 through Dec. 7. It's a time for people with Medicare to make important decisions about their health care. There are many factors, in addition to premiums and medical provider networks, to consider when researching the Medicare plan that best meets your health and budget needs for 2018. Knowing the benefits offered by Medicare Advantage plans and Medicare Prescription Drug Plans -- both offer enhancements to Original Medicare -- will also be key in your decision making. Here are five common hiccups Medicare beneficiaries may experience when considering their options: • Your monthly payments are not the only thing to consider. After you analyze your previous year's plan and assess the most affordable option for the coming year, including extra costs that can be incurred down the road, consider the total value of the Medicare plan you select. • Your drug coverage is not the same everywhere. Drug prices can vary fer benefits, such as fitness programs, for maintaining healthy, active lifestyles. depending on your location, pharmacy and how much you've used your pre• You may not need the same plan as your spouse/significant other. scription benefits.

Here Comes Cold and Flu Season Contributed Article Chautauqua County Office for the Aging
Although influenza (Flu) viruses can be caught year round, in the US the most common time for sickness is during the fall and winter with peaks from December to February for the most part. This is due to the fact that Flu virus is more stable in cold air and low humidity. First let’s talk about the difference between a cold and “the Flu”. Although both are caused by viruses; a cold generally affects the neck up with congestion. You may experience a runny nose, sore throat, clogged sinuses and a cough. The flu makes you feel miserable all over. You know the “I feel like I’ve been hit by a bus” feeling- fever, body aches, dry cough, you name it. The “flu” or influenza is not intestinal in nature it is upper respiratory, although you may experience nausea and vomiting along with the respiratory symptoms. There are more than 200 different viruses which cause colds, which is why our immune systems often can’t keep up and develop immunity. Most colds cause only temporary discomfort and run their course fairly quickly; the influenza virus however, can result in a much more severe illness especially for the older person. There is no treatment for the cold other than to help alleviate the symptoms but there are vaccines in place each year for the flu. Remember that antibiotics are used for bacterial infections NOT for the virus causing cold and flu. It is a guessing game because if you are hit with the flu (influenza) it is beneficial to get an antiviral but it needs to be given in the first 48 hours of your illness. So… call your doctor if you are hit hard and fast with a high fever, chills, cough, and significant body aches for their opinion. Remember influenza is highly contagious so please stay home and do not spread the illness. It is for this reason that many doctor’s offices do not have patients wait in the main waiting room if they are experiencing symptoms of the flu. How do we “not get sick”? We often infect ourselves by touching contaminated surfaces. I read somewhere that you might as well lick a door knob as touch your face with your fingers, which we generally do at least 3 times an hour. We ride elevators or use the stairs and hold handrails; we touch grocery carts and then rub our eyes, mouth or nose and boom… we’re infected. Wash your hands frequently, if you need to cough or sneeze and don’t have a disposable tissue, use the inside of your elbow (teach others to do this as well), and don’t touch your face. Stay well by disinfecting surfaces such as grocery carts, turning off faucets with a paper towel and using them to open the door. Staying healthy and boosting your immune system is your best defense. Three immune system wreckers include sitting around too much and not being active, eating a high trans-fats diet and too much sugar. During the height of cold and flu season or especially if you’ve heard of outbreaks it would be best to stay away from crowded areas, especially if you are immune compromised or elderly. Often you’ll see nursing homes and hospitals restricting visitation as they are experiencing high rates of infection. It is important to consume foods that will help boost your immune system during an illness. Stay well hydrated and eat foods loaded with anti-oxidants. Anti-oxidant rich food includes broccoli, cabbage or kale. Drink lots of caffeine free, low sugar drinks and eat plenty of phytochemicals which are plants, dark green, red or yellow vegetables and fruits especially citrus which contain Vitamin C. Two other options to naturally help alleviate symptoms would be garlic or ginger. Garlic contains alliin which is a powerful natural decongestant aiding in the removal of infected mucous and ginger is very soothing to the throat and helps clear passageways, make or look for ginger root tea. I always drink Ginger tea with local fresh honey and a little cream when I am suffering from a chest or head cold. Avoid high sugar, high fat junk food. Gargle with salt water, yep my dad was right! Salt water kills pathogens and eases inflammation and loosens mucous. Some people also swear by taking zinc lozenges as soon as symptoms emerge. Avoid stuffy rooms - Let some fresh air in…. Crack a window, circulate the air, Viruses on the move are harder to pick up. Use a humidifier which will help your symptoms as well as decreasing virus survival. Call your doctor or seek medical attention if a cough persists for more than two weeks, fever and chills increase or persists for 7 days, you have increased difficulty in breathing or faster breathing, a fast heart rate, persistent wheezing, and or chest pain – this may indicate that the virus has spurred a bacterial infection or pneumonia. ** Please remember to contribute toward your OFA nutrition services if you can.

Alternative Ways to Make College More Affordable Contributed Article StatePoint
A college education is one of the largest expenses you’re likely to have in your lifetime, second only to buying a home. Unfortunately, the cost has increased dramatically in recent years. Tuition plus fees at four-year public colleges jumped 71 percent over the last decade, forcing many would-be degree seekers to delay or even forgo attending college. For others, it’s meant heading to school while taking on large amounts of debt. Today, however, new solutions are popping up to address the college affordability crisis. Most people know about grants and scholarships. Students can now also consider alternate paths to college credit, helping them graduate faster and more affordably, say experts. Here’s what you need to know: • The average cost of a typical undergraduate college course is $1,782. In high school, take as many Advanced Placement (AP) and College Level Examination Program (CLEP) courses as you can handle, increasing your opportunity to earn college credit and save money on tuition. • The College Board’s CLEP, while not as well-known as AP, is a 50-year-old credit-by-examination program accepted by more than 2,900 schools and universities. Check to see if the colleges you are considering accept CLEP credit, and then work hard to succeed on one or more of the 32 CLEP exams. CLEP courses and exams are rigorous, but shorter and not as challenging as AP. • Consider new programs such as “Freshman Year for Free,” an initiative developed by Modern States Education Alliance, a charity dedicated to making a college degree more affordable and attainable for everyone. Students can use Modern States’ 40+ tuition-free online courses -- all taught by top college professors -- to prepare for the AP and CLEP exams. • One advantage of CLEP tests is that they are offered every day at thousands of testing centers. AP exams can only be taken in high schools in May. Modern States is paying the AP and CLEP exam fees for the first 10,000 test-takers, making the program, which also includes free textbooks and practice questions, totally free. “This is a great on-ramp to college and an opportunity to save both time and up to 25 percent of the rising cost of a degree,” says Steve Klinsky, founder and CEO of Modern States Education Alliance. To learn more, visit modernstates.org. • Attending community college for the first two years and then transferring to a four-year institution offers another opportunity to cut costs. Dual-enrollment pro-

grams, whereby students take college courses at a city or community college while still in high school, are another great way to head to college with some credits under your belt. More than one-third of Americans ages 30 and younger who haven’t attended college attribute their decision to the high cost, according to a Federal Reserve survey. In fact, U.S. student loan debt stands at an all-time high of $1.34 trillion. Don’t miss out on an education or let it saddle you with debt. Seek out alternative methods for earning college credits.

Help for Homeowners On the Hook for Billions in Hurricane Damages Contributed Article NewsUSA Sponsored by GAF
And now comes the arduous task of rebuilding hundreds of thousands of houses destroyed or damaged by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma. And with it, alas, the realization by all too many homeowners that they're the ones on the hook for the cost of a large chunk of their own repair work. The main reason? In a word: flooding. While areas like the Florida Keys were decimated by winds that reached 130 mph -- a quarter of all houses there were demolished and another 65 percent suffered major damage -- a lot of the wreckage from this summer's double wallop came from floodwaters. And since homeowners' insurance policies typically cover wind and hail but exclude (you guessed it) flood damage. Well, even given the miscellany of federal, state and local aid programs out there, you can see why some estimate the total out-of-pocket costs for Texas and Florida homeowners at $28 billion and $13.1 billion respectively. "There's going to be a huge uninsured economic loss
here," Pete Mills, a senior vice president at the Mortgage Bankers Association, has said. As in past emergencies, fellow Americans immediately joined a long list of companies like Apple, Verizon, and Chevron in donating truckloads of money, clothes, and other products to help with the relief efforts. One of the latest corporate initiatives seems especially apt, given all those houses that need to be rebuilt. In what it says is a first-of-its kind program for them, GAF, North America's largest roofing manufacturer, is offering a special financing program for homeowners in need of roof repairs in FEMA-designated areas for individual assistance of Texas, Florida, and Georgia. Through November 30, they can take advantage of zero percent interest over 36 months of equal payments. "The hurricanes have had a devastating impact on so many people," said Jim Schnepper, president of GAF. "We recognize that restoring communities begins with getting homeowners back into their homes as quickly as possible, with a roof they can trust to protect the things that matter most in their lives." Know that the financing is available only through

Fredonia Offers Unique Concert Experience with SHUFFLE
Contributed Article SUNY Fredonia
The State University of New York at Fredonia School of Music, in partnership with Rockefeller Arts Center, brings a truly unique chamber performance experience to Rosch Recital Hall during Fredonia's Family Weekend 2017. OnSaturday, October 28 at 8pm, SHUFFLE Concert will take the stage for an evening of inspiring and energetic performance by the group's exceptionally accomplished chamber musicians. Reserved seating tickets are $20 ($5 for students with ID) and are available at the Fredonia Ticket Office by phone (716) 673-3501, online at www.fredonia.edu/tickets, or in-person in the Williams Center. A modern day ensemble that delivers the unexpected, New York-based chamber music ensemble SHUFFLE Concert changes the rules of performance as we know it. Conceived by SHUFFLE’s artistic director and pianist, Eliran Avni (who is also the newest member of the Fredonia piano faculty), SHUFFLE was born while Avni was exercising on the elliptical machine at the gym. His MP3 player jumped from a Pretenders song to the first movement of Prokofiev’s Fifth Symphony, nearly causing him to lose his balance… and thus, the idea for SHUFFLE was born! "SHUFFLE was not created with the intention of replacing the usual classical concert
The SHUFFLE Concert lineup of, from left, Sofia Nowik (cello), Hassan Anderson (oboe), Eliran Avni (piano), Moran Katz (clarinet), Ariadne Greif (soprano) and Brendan Speltz (violin) will perform in Fredonia’s Rosch Recital Hall on Saturday, Oct. 28 at 8 p.m
format but as an alternative," said Avni. "And, in fact, it really isn’t a classical concert. It’s a completely different beast— which in turn makes it unique and interesting." Unique to SHUFFLE’s performances is the manner in which the program is selected. The audience is invited to actively participate in the selection of works to be performed by choosing from a menu of over 30 works derived from 15 different styles, with works ranging from solos and duos, to trios, quartets, quintets and sextets. Genres vary from classical, baroque, and romantic, to Jazz, Latin, and Broadway. The result is a highly engaged audience and a high-energy performance that is appropriate for all ages. "Pianist Eliran Avni has created a concert experience for the digital age, in the form of an iPod-'style' shuffle. His SHUFFLE Concert [...] is a unique concept in which the audience determines the pro-
graming from a music 'menu'," wrote Karen Bloom in Rockville Center Herald. SHUFFLE’s members are exceptionally accomplished chamber musicians; they are graduates of such schools as Juilliard, New England Conservatory, Oberlin, Manhattan School of Music and Bard College and have all individually won numerous prizes and have performed extensively as soloists and collaborative musicians throughout the world. This performance will feature Sofia Nowik (cello), Hassan Anderson (oboe), Eliran Avni (piano), Moran Katz (clarinet), Ariadne Greif (soprano) and Brendan Speltz (violin). Since its inception, SHUFFLE has performed in a variety of concert settings, including the Duplex, Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall, the Rose Studio at Lincoln Center, Merkin Hall and Rhinebeck Chamber Music Society Series in New York; Buck Hill Skytop Music Festival in Pennsylvania; Mol-
loy College in Long Island; Los Angeles’s L'Ermitage Concert Series, Lancaster Performing Arts Center and Pepperdine University Center for the Arts in California, and Canada’s Chamberfest Ottawa, and presented residencies at East Stroudsburg University and Gettysburg College in Pennsylvania; Mirman School in Los Angeles; The Dalles Middle school, Oregon; and the International School in Herzeliya, Israel, to name a few. In December 2012 the ensemble made its New York City Merkin Hall debut which was broadcast on WWFM and WQXR, and which included the premieres of new works by Avner Dorman and Jonathan Keren. The ensemble's debut eponymous CD was released in October 2013, and in 2014, to celebrate its fifth anniversary,SHUFFLE introduced its first Composition Competition, awarding prizes to composers Piotr Szewcyzk, Kevin Wilt and Oran Eldor for
their original compositions for the ensemble. Last year, SHUFFLE released its long-awaited Interactive Video Project that allows presenters and audiences to choose their own musical adventure in the comfort of their own home. The video includes five segments, each in a different musical style. The viewer is invited to watch them in any particular order of their choice. In addition, the ensemble also released two short trailer videos from live performances in October 2015 at the McCallum Theatre in Palm Desert, CA and Merkin Hall. The first trailer explains the SHUFFLE rules and the second presents audience responses to the SHUFFLE concept and performances. Both can be viewed on the Media page on the SHUFFLE website. In addition to their regular touring schedule, the 20172018 season findsSHUFFLE Concert creating an exciting, new project titled "1933," a unique concert experience dedicated to music composed and premiered during this pivotal year in human history. Scheduled to premiere in January of 2018 at the Dell E. Webb Center in Wickenburg, Arizona, "1933" will feature SHUFFLE's interactive musical program with a multimedia visual presentation of historic events, art and architecture of the period, and illuminated by an original lighting design.

World's Top Restaurants Recognized In TripAdvisor Travelers' Choice Awards
Contributed Article TripAdvisor
TripAdvisor®, the travel site that helps find the latest reviews and lowest prices, today announced the winners of its Travelers' Choice® awards for the best fine dining restaurants around the world. This year's awards recognize nearly 400 fine dining restaurants, including the Top 25 in the World, plus dedicated lists for Asia, Europe, India, Canada, Mexico, Australia, South America, South Pacific, the U.K. and the U.S. Award winners were determined using an algorithm that took into account the quantity and quality of reviews for restaurants around the world, gathered over a 12-month period. "Whether celebrating a special occasion or simply looking for a culinary discovery, travelers can rely on these Travelers' Choice restaurants to serve up delectable meals and unforgettable moments," said Brooke Ferencsik, senior director of communications for TripAdvisor. Top 10 Fine Dining Restaurants in the U.S. 1. Daniel – New York City, New York Daniel Boulud's flagship restaurant is the shining star of an empire that spans four countries. Both the setting and the cuisine are a signature blend of oldworld and modern sensibilities. "Just magical. A sense of privacy, peace and intimacy. The extra small touches and care for customers kept coming as the night unfolded," raved a TripAdvisor reviewer. 2. Victoria & Albert's – Orlando, Florida Executive Chef Scott Hunnel and Chef de Cuisine Aimee Rivera preside over a wonderful world of cuisine featuring ingredients from far and wide in a classic setting. "There are not enough superlatives to describe the Chef's Table, the most incredible ride at Disney World," a TripAdvisor user praised. "It would be a major bucket list event for any foodie." 3. Charleston Grill – Charleston, South Carolina Pure, Lush, Southern and Cosmopolitan are the four sections of the menu created by chef Michelle Weaver. Diners can stick to one or try them all. Experimentation is a proud Charleston Grill tradition. "They get everything right: beautiful, soothing ambiance; wonderful live jazz, extraordinary service and an exceptional, creative menu. The Chef clearly loves food," complimented a TripAdvisor reviewer. 4. Alinea – Chicago, Illinois Alinea is the high theater of modern American cuisine. Chef Grant Achatz deconstructs, reconstructs and defines the form by putting flavor and fresh ingredients first. "Food is truly art at Alinea," declared a TripAdvisor reviewer. "The courses went from excellent to mind-blowing and finished with laughter and amusement." 5. Chef and the Farmer – Kinston, North Carolina Farm-fresh ingredients and an appreciation for culture and tradition draw local and visiting gourmands and viewers of PBS's A Chef's Life to this smalltown restaurant. Neither the restaurant nor chef Vivian Howard disappoint, even for a TripAdvisor reviewer who "drove 200 miles each way." Chef and the Farmer serves traditional "Southern food in inventive new ways, using locally sourced ingredients. It was everything we hoped it would be."
6. Halls Chophouse – Charleston, South Carolina Lowcountry cuisine meets top-of-the-line beef at Halls, one of America's premier steakhouses. Halls Chophouse is family-run, with an emphasis on hospitality. "Halls is where you go in Charleston when you want an amazing steak in a great atmosphere with wonderful service," explained a TripAdvisor user. "The owner is present and sincerely happy to please you. This is the best of Charleston." 7. Geronimo – Santa Fe, New Mexico A perfect match of setting and food, Geronimo is an elegant 18th-century hacienda serving a "global eclectic" menu that changes with the seasons. Chef Sllin Cruz inherited and has burnished Geronimo's reputation as New Mexico's best. "Geronimo is not a place you go to in Santa Fe, it's the reason you go to Santa Fe," a TripAdvisor reviewer enthused. "Delicious food, fantastic service, great atmosphere and warm hospitality." 8. Mama's Fish House – Paia, Hawaii Mama's Fish House has been a Maui must for more than 40 years, known for a changing daily menu inspired by the catch of the day. The vintage island atmosphere is contrasted by the freshest seafood and local ingredients. "Book ahead," advised a TripAdvisor reviewer. "Because this place is fabulous. A lush open-air restaurant with soothing ambiance, view of the ocean through a terrace of palm trees, terrific cocktails and memorable food." 9. Restaurant Gary Danko – San Francisco, California Classic French cooking meets California flair at Restaurant Gary Danko, where dining becomes interactive art. "The food is remarkable and the service attentive. But what truly sets the restaurant apart is its creative approach to how diners order," explained a TripAdvisor reviewer. "You can choose three, four or five courses from a menu divided into five categories. But in a nod to flexibility, you can choose an item from any category for any course." 10. Merriman's – Kapalua, Hawaii Chef Peter Merriman has championed the farm-to-table concept in Hawaii for more than 25 years and is a pioneer of Hawaii Regional Cuisine. Bountiful local ingredients flavor the food, and stunning views enhance the experience. "Not sure which is better - the view, the atmosphere or the food. Go early," recommended a TripAdvisor reviewer. "Enjoy a few cocktails on the deck as the sun dips into the horizon, a wonderful mood setter for what will be a truly wonderful evening." Top 10 Travelers' Choice Restaurants in the World 1. The Black Swan at Oldstead – Oldstead, England 2. Belmond Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons – Great Milton, England 3. Maison Lameloise – Chagny, France 4. L'Auberge de l'Ill – Illhaeusern, France 5. Martin Berasategui – Lasarte, Spain 6. Daniel – New York City, New York 7. La Colombe – Constantia, South Africa 8.

On Friday, August 4th , The third annual Shades of Pink Golf Tournament was held at South Hills Country Club to benefit UPMC Chautauqua WCA Hospital’s Shades Of Pink Program. All were welcomed and encouraged to play in this tournament, which helped raise funds for a great cause; cancer care. The community really came forward and stepped it up with local donations of support and baskets. The total from the past three years of the event has exceeded over $16,000! Ann Sischo, local breast cancer survivor and her husband Steve along with a longtime friend, Randy Grey spearheaded the event with their family and friends. Ann and her husband Steve wanted to see that money stayed local and was used to help others through the difficult times. “When I found out that I had cancer,” Ann stated, “the staff at UPMC Chautauqua WCA’s Mammography Department were so positive, warm and comforting. We wanted to ensure people in the community were able to receive the same care as I had. The money we donate will be able to provide women in the community breast cancer screenings and the care, support and education they need to navigate through this journey. We were able to raise $6,000 this year, far exceeding our expectations, and we wouldn’t have been able to do it without the help of our committee, community and supporters. We are very proud that part of the money raised will once again be used to provide education for a young lady to be certified as a breast navigator along with supporting the program with mammograms for those with barriers obtaining breast exams and mammograms.” UPMC Chautauqua WCA Shades of Pink breast screening program started in 2012 in the UPMC Chautauqua WCA Center for Imaging. The purpose of the program is to increase access of breast screening to women who are identified as having barriers obtaining a clinical breast exams and mammogram. The name Shades Of Pink came about which encompasses all the degrees in variations of which women face in accessing breast cancer screening. No women should die of breast cancer because of a delay in treatment due to the lack of insurance, primary care physicians, transportation, language barriers or their age or the color of their skin. UPMC Chautauqua WCA Shades of Pink is a “one-stop same day” screening program. Women come to UPMC Chautauqua WCA Center for Imaging where a nurse practitioner or physician will perform a clinical breast exam. Then the women moves on to get her mammogram screening and will receive same day results.

UPMC Chautauqua WCA Shades of Pink coordinates its’ efforts with The Chautauqua County Cancer Services Program to recruit women in underserved areas to the screening program. They help the women to obtain insurance and coverage to pay for the clinical exam and mammogram. They also help the women find a primary care physician if the women does not have one and is in further need of diagnostic treatment. They will also work with women who have insurance but have high deductibles and can’t afford breast screening co-pays. Finding breast cancer in its earlies stages can saves lives. The overall efforts of the UPMC Chautauqua WCA Shades of Pink breast screening program are to educate, support, and connect women in need of breast screening, diagnosis and treatment of suspicious findings without delay. This will decrease the mortality rate at which women in our community die from breast cancer.

Golfer's
D i a ry
Revisiting the Preseason Goals By Stefan Gestwicki Star Contributing Writer
Some bad luck struck this past week and I wasn’t able to golf. A shoulder injury left me virtually unable to use my right arm for a few days. If you’ve never golfed before, believe me, your arms are relatively important. That said, I’ve still been thinking a lot about golf and figured it would be a good time to revisit those goals I set for myself at the beginning of the year. Off the top of my head, I feel like I fell short on nearly all of them, but here we go anyway. GOAL: BIRDIE AT LEAST THREE PAR 3s RESULT: FAILURE So while I didn’t actually birdie any par 3s this year, I feel like I greatly improved on them. I hit the green more often than not, for sure. Even when I missed the green off the tee, I can recall several great chips to set me up for par. My biggest issue is leaving birdie putts short, especially on par 3s, for whatever reason. GOAL: GET AT LEAST ONE PERSON HOOKED RESULT: FAILURE I was tempted to give myself an “inconclusive” on this one, but I deserve a fail. Midway through the season, my brother, my cousin and our uncle all went out for a round. It was the first time my uncle had played in many, many years. He enjoyed himself a ton and talked about wanting to play again. He recently retired and said he has friends in leagues. I thought for sure I had him hooked again. Then, for whatever reason, we didn’t get out again. Hopefully in the April he’ll remember what a good time golf is and we’ll play together often. GOAL: PLAY MORE COURSES RESULT: FAILURE It’s so easy to say, “We should go check out course X.” Nick and I even had a time to go play Green Meadows in North East, Pa. We talked about playing Shorewood and going back to TriCounty. None of those things happened. We had a great time playing Cassadaga Country Club, Hillview, Pinehurst, Rose Brook and Vineyards, but there’s no way I can say that I succeeded in this goal. In fact, I played fewer courses this year than last year. GOAL: BREAK 40 AT LEAST TWICE RESULT: SUCCESS Finally, one I passed with flying colors. I broke 40 five times this season. I entered the season having done it just once. Not only that, but I broke 80 twice, too. I had a pair of 38’s for my best nine-hole score ever. I also had a trio of 39’s. One of those 39’s could have easily been a 36 without some horrible putting luck. Every year I enter the golf season telling myself, “This is the year I’m going to be good at this game.” This year, I feel like I finally made strides towards that. GOAL: PLAY 18 HOLES MORE OFTEN RESULT: SUCCESS While this is technically a success, the bar wasn’t set terribly high. That said, I definitely found the time to get in a full round several times (I don’t have an exact count, unfortunately). A handful of those were at Rose Brook, which is a wonderfully affordable 18-hole course that just keeps improving. I see myself playing there a lot next year. Then there were five or six times that Nick and I simply played Hillview twice. They technically have blue tees for the “back nine” there, but we prefer to just play the whites twice. We only played Pinehurst twice this year, but we made it 18 both times and had a blast. As noted in my previous goal, I had some success playing 18, too. I broke 80 not once, but twice (Hillview the first time, Rose Brook the second). GOAL: KEEP CALM RESULT: FAILURE I’m embarrassed by this, but I definitely had a few curses escape my lips this season. There may have been a wedge or two tossed towards the cart in frustration. We’ve all been there, right? You have a great round going and then you botch a shot, ruining the hole and a chance at a personal best score. Or worse (and probably my calmness kryptonite), you look forward to a round for days and the weather is perfect. Then you flub your way to a double bogey on the very first hole. Just thinking about it is enough to warrant a full-fledged club throw. You’ll notice that there are far more failures in this than successes, but I found it was a wonderfully enjoyable golf season regardless. I’m holding out hope that it’s not finished yet, but we’ll see. Until then, golf is great. Go get some.
28 AUTO TIPS & TRICKS
CHAUTAUQUA STAR FRIDAY, OCTOBER 20, 2017
Newsflash: The UK Uses Miles Per Hour system, the United Kingdom still uses miles per hour, too -- and anywhere you go in the U.K., you'll see signs in miles per hour. I bring this up for two reasons. One is because I keep being told by people, even people I speak to in real life, that automakers have to convert gauge clusters and odometers to miles per hour
Contributed Article Autotrader
Here's something you almost certainly didn't know: the United States is not the only large automobile market that uses miles per hour on its roads. Even though everyone thinks Europe has completely converted to the metric

"solely for the U.S. market." That isn't true -- they're converting these things for the U.K., too, and presumably a few other little countries that haven't made the switch. I also bring this up to enlighten people who are convinced that the United States is the only "backwards" country in the world still using miles per hour. This, too, isn't true, as the U.K. is indeed still doing it -- even though you might think they aren't. Not only do they use miles per hour, but they also use miles per gallon (as opposed to "liters per 100 kilometers" like in other European countries) -- and, as you might expect given that fact, they also measure gasoline in gallons (though they're slightly different than our gallons). Remember how Top Gear always quotes cars' 0-to-60 times, or their top speeds in miles per hour? That's because the U.K. uses miles per hour. Interestingly, the U.K. is a bit of a hodgepodge of metric and imperial units, and the history of this is sort of
interesting -- though Oversteer isn't the place for such a history lesson. Many older Brits still use Fahrenheit for temperature measurement; younger ones use Celsius. Grocery store items can be labeled in pounds or grams. And peoples' weight is often given in a truly unusual measurement called "stones," where one stone is equivalent to 14 pounds. But while it's all a bit confusing and the U.K., in general, seems to be heading toward a wider adoption of the metric system, that doesn't apply to the roads: it's still solidly in the camp of miles per hour.

first and foremost: 1. Safety: Most tires perform well in everyday situations, but difficult conditions will reveal their differences. Choose tires that can perform well in the worst types of weather or roads you encounter. For example, if you live in a region with regular heavy snowfall and cold winters, consider winter tires for part of the year. The difference can be huge. 2. Value: It's important to remember that not all tires are created equal. Tires may seem like an additional expense on top of general car maintenance, but investing in quality tires known for long-lasting performance--such as the Michelin Defender with its 80,000 mile warranty--will save you money over time as your tires won't need to be replaced as quickly.
