Hospice’s Light a Life Memorial Tree Lighting Spreading to more communities By Scott Wise Senior Copy Writer
Hospice has touched the lives of countless families throughout its history, and that rings true for Chautauqua County Hospice as well. From the state line to Erie County, many residents have felt the effect of Hospice’s care for friends and family members. With the holiday season nearly upon us, it’s also a time for people to reflect on past years, and cherish the memories of those no longer with us. For the eighth year, Hospice will be lighting trees and hanging bows as part of their annual Light a Life Memorial Tree Lighting Ceremony. As part of the Light a Life, which we outlined in last week’s issue of the Chautauqua Star, anyone can donate $5 to have a memorial bow placed on a tree. This year, there are more communities than ever before taking part in the tree lighting. “We’re thrilled with how many people are taking part in this year’s program,” said Megan D’Angelo, Hospice’s Director of Community Relations. “Light a Life is a great way for people to remember their family members that have passed on by having a bow placed on a memorial tree.” Hospice’s goal is to have a memorial tree in each community. This year, there are several communities that are participating. In addition, there will be a special tree lighting ceremony taking place at the Downtown Jamestown Development Corporation’s (DJDC) annual Holiday Parade on Nov. 30.
“This is our first year lighting the tree for Hospice,” said Recia Myers, Gerry Town Clerk. “[D’Angelo] sent out letters inviting anyone who wanted to participate with their own tree. We brought it up at a meeting, and everyone agreed that we would love to do it.” There were similar sentiments in Clymer, where the Hospice tree will be displayed at the Community Bank N.A. on Main St. “It’s a good cause,” said Cindy Wellink, Town Clerk for the Town of Clymer. “My father and sister both took advantage of Hospice’s services.” Nearly all of the towns taking part were personally affected by the care that Hospice provides- and all had nothing but positive things to say. “Last year in October, Hospice came to help my mom,” said Karen Ardillo, Brocton’s Village Clerk. “It’s just a wonderful program. It gives dignity to people. They provided such excellent care.” BVS_STARad_Oct12.indd 1 Brocton’s tree is a live, planted tree next to the village buildings.

“We had been talking with Hospice about working together to promote their cause and the Life a Life ceremony,” said Lee Harkness, Executive Director of the DJDC. “We thought it would give them some well-deserved exposure. We wanted to raise awareness about Hospice and what their mission is so more people can understand what they’re trying t do.” The DJDC will be featuring Hospice at the beginning of the parade, and the tree will be lit at the Dr. Lillian Vitanza Ney Renaissance Center.

Children, she says, often write about themselves or include pictures. According to Kimberly, the initiative has spiraled through social media and friends and family who have spread the word. A mentor with Chautauqua Striders, Kimberly has also had mentors and mentees take part in letter writing. She has involved friends who are teachers who have involved their students in the writing campaign. In addition, Kimberly is also working with the Chautauqua County Veterans Association, collecting cold weather items such as socks mittens and hats. “Every active duty person becomes a veteran- they too have made sacrifices and should be thought about; there are many who have been out there for years they may have been forgotten about.” For more information on how you can help Kimberly in her letter writing campaign or help purchase needed items for local veterans, interested persons may contact Kimberly by email at kimberlyecklund@ yahoo.com.

RELIGION SECTION Keeping the Faith
Rev. Michael Lokietek Family Church Fredonia
October is Pastor Appreciation Month. What can I do to really appreciate my hard working Pastor? Over the last few weeks we looked at a few ways to honor your Pastor. The primary way is to pray for them and the destiny of the church. Without a praying congregation, no matter how motivated or spiritual a Pastor may be, they cannot fulfill God’s plan alone! Another way to appreciate your Pastor is to honor their calling and position by
cooperating and supporting their God-given vision for the church. It’s difficult enough to lead a church without having to face negativity, nonconstructive criticism, and resistance from those who should be helping to “make it happen.” A word of support and appreciation goes a long way to encourage a hardworking Pastor! This week I’m going to get a bit more practical. Remember, Pastors are people, too! Many of them put in long hours of
www.thefamilychurches.org
prayer and study besides the office hours and pulpit time. Time with their spouse and children is precious. Anything that can be done to help them in these areas would be seen as a real blessing. For example, I love a well maintained yard. Before my family and ministry duties have grown, I was able to keep my yard looking good. As a way of demonstrating their appreciation, several members share in my yard upkeep. When my children were younger, others volunteered to watch them so that I could
take my wife out for a much needed evening alone. Believe me…I REALLY appreciate these helps! When expressing your appreciation for your Pastor its important to do things for THEM! While you may be tempted to invite them to dinner (and some might like this) a very busy Pastor may just want an evening at home. A yummy meal dropped off for the whole family helps them to enjoy more family time together. Gift certificates to area
restaurants, clothing shops, and car washes can also be real blessings. They can use these at their convenience and it allows the blessings to fit into their schedule. I recently used a gift certificate to take my family and visiting guest ministers out to a local restaurant. It was fabulous and a way that I could bless others. Whatever you decide to do to support your Pastor, just remember to do it from your heart and as an honor to God!
It is impossible but that offenses will come…” Jesus was telling us that it is impossible to live in this world without somebody offending us in the flesh. The word “offenses” in this verse is a very interesting word. The original Greek word from which this word was translated means “trap” or “snare.” Offense will trap you into a world of defeat. Proverbs 18:19 says, “A brother offended is harder to be won than a fortress and their arguments are like the bars of a castle.” This verse paints the picture of the offended person: They are held captive in the bowels of a fortress; behind bars and a prisoner not easily
rescued. Think about how a prisoner lives. They are not well fed or well clothed. Their surroundings always seem drab and hopeless. They are constantly without someone to help them. Do not underestimate how your offense affects your finances, relationships, and peace of mind. Spiritually speaking, our attitudes affect every area in life. Don’t allow offense to hold you prisoner in a place where you cannot be helped. If life seems like a struggle, see if you are offended. If so then forgive that person. Be a blessing to them and live free.
The Weekly Word The Offense Trap
Rev. Tim Stahlman Family Church Jamestown www.thenewfamilychurch.com
Many people today are struggling through life as they try to carry excess baggage in the form of past hurts and grudges. Others have allowed their personalities to feed and thrive on controversies and scandal. People do not realize the emotional fatigue and stress they are bringing on themselves when they stay offended at somebody. To remain defeated in life all you have to do is live in offense. 2 Corinthians 2:10-11 says, “To whom you FORGIVE any thing, I FORGIVE also; for if I FORGAVE anything…I FORGAVE it
in the person of Christ; lest Satan should get an ADVANTAGE over us for we are not ignorant of his devices.” Did you notice who Satan gets the advantage over? It wasn’t the person who committed the offense; it was the one that refuses to forgive. The person who dwells on offense will live under the pressure and restlessness that demonic forces provide. Grudges and offenses will plague your mind and wear you out emotionally and physically. If you are constantly worn out, check up on your offenses. Notice that these verses are written to a group of people
who were given an opportunity to forgive. But look at what the author of the verse said: He said that he forgave this individual IN THE PERSON OF CHRIST. What does that mean? That means that under his own strength he could not walk in forgiveness. The only possibility of forgiving this offense was in the recognition of Christ. Sometimes that will be the case in our lives. Offenses can seem so huge that it will take a recollection of what Christ suffered to forgive us so we can forgive others. It may take a supernatural example of mercy to motivate us. In Luke 17:1, Jesus says, “…
SENIOR SECTION
Tips for Seniors to Save Money Contributed Article Senior.com
Many Americans are in the process of reassessing their spending patterns, and boomers and seniors are no exception. Seventy-three percent of adults over age 50 started saving more or cutting back on spending last year, compared to 2010, according to a November 2011 report by the AARP. In many cases, the new spirit of frugality is not necessarily born out of financial necessity, but also out of a desire to simplify life, avoid excessive consumption and focus on what’s really important – family, friends and community. If you’re an adult over 50, maybe you’re exploring the hidden treasures of your own region instead of taking exotic vacations. Maybe you’re barbecuing with friends in the backyard instead of going out to eat. Maybe you’re spending more time playing with your grandkids instead of buying them the latest electronic
gadgets. In short, you’re trying to cut back on spending without sacrificing quality of life. Here are five tips to help. Examine recurring expenses. It’s easy to overpay for utilities and other recurring expenses if you don’t periodically review your options and make sure you’re getting the best deal. Many utility companies offer senior discounts, for example, but you have to ask. Also consider a lower-cost no-contract cell phone plan. Consumer Cellular, for example, offers a variety of affordable no-contract voice and data plans that can be changed without penalty at any time. You’re never locked into a plan that forces you to pay for more service than you need, and complementary usage alerts mean you don’t have to worry about accidentally exceeding your maximum allowance. Flexible family plans where couples and families share minutes can save an additional $20 to $30 per month.
Increase energy efficiency. Another way to reduce your bills is by increasing the energy efficiency of your home. You can unplug battery chargers when not in use, turn off appliances rather than leaving them in standby mode, use energyefficient light bulbs and turn off the lights when you leave a room. If you’re able to invest a little to ensure longer-term savings – whether through weatherproofing or upgrading aging appliances – you can schedule an energy audit to find out how to get the biggest bang for your home-improvement buck. Be a smart shopper. If you’re not into clipping coupons, that’s OK. There are other ways to save. For example, try store-brand products rather than automatically reaching for the brands you’ve always purchased – in many cases, you won’t be able to tell the difference. Buy in bulk if you use large quantities of something. Watch for sales on items you purchase regu-
larly, but don’t buy something just because it’s on sale – if you wouldn’t have bought it otherwise, you’re not saving money. For bigger-ticket items, be sure to comparison shop to make sure you’re getting the best price. Websites such as pricegrabber.com allow you to research numerous retailers without leaving your home. Take advantage of free entertainment. Wondering what to do this weekend? Low-cost, or sometimes free, options are abundant. Check the events sections of local newspapers and websites to see what’s happening in the area – festivals, exhibits and other special events are often free, and high schools and colleges frequently host sporting events, plays, concerts and lectures that are open to the public. Libraries are also an excellent source of free entertainment – you can try out new authors, artists and genres with no risk by borrowing books, audiobooks, DVDs

and CDs instead of purchasing them. You might even meet some interesting people while you’re out and about in the community. Reassess your gift-giving habits. If you’ve ever found yourself rushing to the mall to buy a last-minute gift for a loved one’s birthday, chances are you’ve spent more than you originally planned, settled for something you suspected the recipient might end up exchanging, or avoided the decision by purchasing a safe but impersonal gift card. However, most of us don’t really need
more things. Instead, consider giving your loved ones the gift of a shared experience. If your grandson loves animals, take him to the zoo. If your sister is into jazz, take her out for an evening at a jazz club. Of course, you might not end up spending less money this way – experiences come in all price ranges – so do keep your budget in mind. The point is that instead of wasting money on something that might just sit in the garage for years, you’ll enjoy a meaningful experience together. And that’s what quality of life is all about.

with the concept of “every child we place is special to us” the driving force behind the work done by all of its fulltime and part-time employees. The focus of treating the adoptive families, their children and birth mothers as all being a part of the “Father Baker” Family is evident with each case that they handle. Adoptive parents find great solace in knowing that they can count on dedicated, compassionate and experienced staff members to be available to them throughout the adoption process, with counseling services offered before and after the placement of each child. Both domestic and international adoptions are processed using a comprehensive approach to adoptions as prospective parents are given access to various educational resources that other adoption services may not be able to provide. The Baker Victory Services Adoption Program hosts individual and group informational meetings throughout the year, with the open sessions reminding all who attend that the organization’s goal and mission remain the same: to better the world one family at a time.

but may have a persistent cough that just won’t go away. The cough is often worse at night and cough medicines usually do not help alleviate it. Vaccinated individuals may still be susceptible to the pertussis disease, but generally have milder symptoms. Pertussis is easily spread by coughing or sneezing while having the disease and spreading it to others by not washing hands or just being in close contact. Babies are highly sensitive to pertussis and can have
severe reactions to the disease, including death. It can be vital to the safety of your children that those around your infant, older siblings, alternate care givers, grandparents, receive the whooping cough vaccine. Because of how easily it is spread to infants, those coming in close contact with babies on a daily basis should be vaccinated against pertussis. “If your child is ill with a cough, keep them home from school and/or daycare,” says Schuyler, “all it takes is for one
child to bring it into the school and you have this endless chain of transmission that is hard to stop.” Most adults, according to the Center for Disease Control (CDC), need 1 dose of the pertussis vaccine every 10 years. Pregnant women are vaccinated in the late second or early third trimester with Tdap, to reduce the chances of transmitting whooping cough to their newborn infant. Most infants begin vaccinations at 2 months and most children
receive 5 doses of the vaccine from birth to 6 years old, with a booster at 10-12 years. Additional information from the CDC states that only 8% of the adults in the USA are vaccinated against whooping cough. To obtain vaccinations, contact your health care provider or call the Chautauqua County Health Department at 1-866604-6789. For more information on Pertussis, please visit www.cdc.gov.

Watching for the lava explosion, from left are Justin Emmons, Austin Bourgeois, Katelyn Haltiner, Haileigh Cruz, Erica Readon, Bret Babcock and Vinnie Raimonde. Three groups designed volcanoes, did research on chemical reactions and then demonstrated the explosive properties of each. “This was a wonderful chance for the kids to showcase their talents and share their after school activities with friends and families,” reported program director, Julie Devlin. “Research shows that kids benefit from after school activities and the YWCA is pleased to be a part of the NYS After School Alliance Network.” For more information on the Advantage Program, contact Ms. Devlin

Researchers Seek Info From Siblings of NY’ers with Developmental Disabilities Contributed Article Cornell University
Adult siblings of people with developmental disabilities are invited to participate in a statewide survey funded by the New York State Developmental Disabilities Planning Council to help state policymakers and agencies learn more about their needs. The survey is anonymous and open to any adult who has a brother or sister with developmental disabilities who lives in the State of New York. Siblings filling out the survey can be from any locale. Cornell Cooperative Extension
Associate Nancy Hinkley at the Employment and Disability Institute of Cornell’s ILR School is leading implementation of the survey. Survey findings will be reported, and recommendations issued, in the summer of 2013. “People with disabilities now often outlive their parents due to health care advances. In addition, the current economic climate is restricting growth of some public services for people with disabilities. This combination may put siblings in a different position than in previous generations, as they increasingly consider responsibilities for brothers and
sisters,” Hinkley says. The survey results will help identify what supports siblings need to care for their developmentally disabled siblings while balancing their own work-life needs. The data will also guide state policymakers and agencies who want to offer training and other resources to adult siblings of persons with developmental disabilities. The survey continues through Dec. 31 and is available online at http://www.nyssibsurvey. org/ Contact Joe Schwartz for information about Cornell’s TV and radio studios.

SUNY Fredonia Welcomes Vanessa And Helen (Class Of ’60) Williams Back To Campus For Presentation And Book Signing Contributed Article SUNY Fredonia
Internationally acclaimed entertainer Vanessa Williams and her mother, Helen Tinch Williams, a member of the Class of 1960, and will appear on SUNY Fredonia’s campus Saturday, Nov. 10 at 2 p.m. The two have recently co-authored a collective autobiography, “You Have No Idea,” that characterizes the enduring relationship that aided Vanessa through a series of challenges which arose after she was crowned the first African-American Miss America in 1983. Vanessa Williams is one of the most respected and multi-faceted performers in entertainment today, having sold millions of music albums worldwide and achieved critical acclaim as an actress on stage, in film and on televi-
sion. The book’s subtitle — “A Famous Daughter, Her Nononsense Mother and How They Survived Pageants, Hollywood, Love, Loss (and Each Other)” — underscores how much of a guiding force Helen has been in Vanessa’s life. The book also includes Helen’s reflections of SUNY Fredonia, where she began at the age of 16 as a freshman Music Education major, including how she met her late husband, Milton Williams, a member of the Class of 1957 and with whom she had 45 wonderful years of marriage. A photograph of Helen with her mentor and favorite music teacher at SUNY Fredonia, Dr. Richard Sheil, is also included in the book. School and music were Helen’s “lifelines to sanity,” she writes, noting that most black students went on to technical schools in the 1950s. Helen hadn’t considered college at first, she says, but teachers at Buffalo’s East High School showed her that it could be done. She became the first member of her family to attend college, and taught music in Ossining, N.Y., for 38 years.

Opera House Presents Frankenstein Contributed Article 1891 Fredonia Opera House
Johnny Lee Miller, the star of ABC Television’s new hit series Elementary, stars in Mary Shelley’s classic tale Frankenstein at the 1891 Fredonia Opera House on Sun., Oct. 28, at 7 p.m. This captured-live in high-definition stage play was filmed during live performances at London’s National Theatre during the production’s award-winning 2011 run. It was directed by Academy Award-winning Director Danny Boyle Best Director Oscar winner for Slumdog Millionaire, Boyle returned to London’s National Theatre to direct this visionary production of a new play by Nick Dear based on Shelley’s novel. Captured live in high definition over the course of two performances, this ingenious production earned its stars, Miller and Benedict Cumberbatch, a pair of Olivier Awards for Best Actor for their alternating performances as Victor Frankenstein and the Creature. (The Opera House production will feature Cumberbatch as Victor Frankenstein and Miller as the Creature.) Childlike in his innocence but grotesque in form, Frankenstein’s bewildered monster is
cast out into a hostile universe by his horror-struck maker. Meeting with cruelty wherever he goes, the friendless Creature, increasingly desperate and vengeful, determines to track down his creator and strike a terrifying deal. Told from the Creature’s point of view, the production marks Boyle’s return to the stage after a 15-year absence in which he made films (127 Hours, Slumdog Millionaire). And even though Boyle keeps the drama set in the early 19th century, it clearly has 21st century resonance, as society is still troubled by people who differ from what we perceive to be the norm – both politically and cosmetically. Urgent concerns of scientific responsibility, parental neglect, cognitive development and the nature of good and evil are embedded within this thrilling and deeply disturbing classic gothic tale. Tickets to Frankenstein are $15 ($10 Students) and may be purchased in person at the Opera House Box Office or by phone at 716-679-1891, Tuesday through Friday, 1-5 p.m. They also may be purchased online any time at www.fredopera.org. Due to its mature nature, this production is not recommended for children.

In the past many landowners sold their rights from the surface to the center of the Earth for a very low percentage of profit. Unfortunately there is little or nothing that can be done to release these landowners from those leases. Landowners can sell only the rights to specific layers of their property, leaving remaining layers for future development and negotiation. Collective bargaining can also protect the landowners with depth restrictions, water protection, reclamation requirements, and bonding and insurance coverage. Regardless of personal feeling about the fracking process, it has become a common part of life in WNY, and needs to be understood by the populous.

Meet Our New Congressman Nov. 9 The Chamber of Commerce is providing a tremendous opportunity this fall for area business people to meet with our new representative in Congress. Just days after the election, the Chamber will present our annual Federal Congressional Luncheon, to be held Friday, November 9 at Moon Brook Country Club. Both Republican candidate Tom Reed and Democratic candidate Nate Shinagawa were invited, and both accepted the invitation. Whoever wins that election will be the Chamber’s guest and speaker for the event, and will take questions from the audience. The Chamber has provided a meeting in the past with our representative in Congress. This year, however, offers a unique opportunity. Since new Congressional District lines were drawn following the 2010 Census, this is the first election for the new 23rd Congressional District. As a result, the nature of the district has changed and this will be a first chance for our new Congressman to meet with his constituency. The cost of the luncheon is $18 for Chamber members or $21 for non-members. This event is sponsored by Advanced Manufacturing Technology, Jamestown Mattress Company, Jamestown Savings Bank Arena, Lake Erie Regional Health System of New York, Medicor Associates, NRG Dunkirk Power, WCA Hospital, Jamestown Jammers Baseball, OBSERVER, The Post-Journal, Chadwick Bay Broadcasting – WDOE/KIX96, and WJTN/WWSE/WKSN/ WHUG/WQFX. Anyone who wants to attend may call the Chamber at 3666200 or 484-1101 to register, or may register online at www. chautauquachamber.org. Open Enrollment Deadline – Oct. 26 Over 400 individuals have met with Chamber staff and representatives from the Bright
Choices Insurance Exchange in recent weeks. Open Enrollment remains open until October 26. Current Chamber insurance clients should carefully review changes in the plan offerings for the coming year before making a decision. They can either opt to change plans at this time, or do nothing and their existing plan will be rolled over into next year with any changes in premiums or coverage that may be associated. A number of the plans offered have changed substantially for the coming year, both in coverage and in cost. Plan details for the 2012-13 year are posted on the Chamber’s website at www.chautauquachamber.org in the Member Benefits/Health Insurance section. Anyone who has questions about the Bright Choices products or program can contact Greg Krauza at the Chamber at 366-6200 or 484-1101. If you do not currently have health insurance coverage at your business for you and your employees, and are interested in the Bright Choices program, please call to set up an appointment and discuss the options. SBAP Can Help Small Businesses with Insurance The Community Chamber Development Corporation, an Affiliate of the Chautauqua County Chamber of Commerce, is helping to provide answers to insurance questions through the Small Business Assistance Program. SBAP is an initiative of the Community Service Society (CSS), a network of organizations across New York State that helps consumers and small business get affordable health care and health insurance. Through SBAP we can provide health reform information and training for employers and one-on-one consultations on insurance options, costs, tax credits, enrollment, dispute resolution, and more. If you have a small business
and are looking for direct answers to questions about insurance, including new regulations surrounding the Affordable Care Act, tax credits, and more, please call CCDC at 366-6200 or 484-1101 for more information. New Social Media Classes Offered The Chamber of Commerce and JCC’s Office of Continuing Education will offer two new, free social media classes in the next several weeks. If your business has a website and you are wondering whether anyone can find you online, this next class is for you. SEO and Google Analytics will provide valuable information on how to make your website be one of the first to show up when someone Google’s your name or type of business. Search Engine Optimization is the key to being “found” on the web. Analytics will help track the numbers of people who are looking at your site and matching it to your business outcomes. SEO & Google Analytics will be held from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Tuesday and Thursday, Nov. 6 and 8. While we all agree that computers, email, and the Internet have made our work lives easier, they have also raised a number of issues for employers about things like using email and Facebook for personal use during the work day. Social Network Office Policies can help your business determine how best to secure your devices and to establish policies that make sense. This class will be held Thursday, Dec. 6. Both of these classes will be held at JCC’s Carnahan Center and lunch is included. They are being offered for free to Chamber members and non-members alike, thanks to funding from the Chautauqua Region Community Foundation, Northern Chautauqua Community Foundation, and the Knight Foundation. To register, contact Continuing Ed at JCC at 338-1005.

A senior Computer Science major and technician in the campus ResNet office, this Franklin, Pa. native retired from the U.S. Army as a First Sergeant in October 2011. He enlisted in 1989, completed basic training at Fort Dix, N.J., and was trained as a fire support specialist, MOS 13F. Sgt.

Cutline: Baltimore-based Lunar Ensemble brings their fresh, hot-off-the-press music to SUNY Fredonia for performances on Nov. 12 and 13 The 100th anniversary of the premiere of Arnold Schoenberg’s Pierrot Lunaire is a milestone event in the musical world. In recognition of the centenary of the premiere performance of this monumental work, the SUNY Fredonia School of Music will present the Baltimore-based Lunar Enesmble for two nights of performances in Rosch Recital Hall. On Monday, Nov. 12 at 8 p.m., the ensemble will perform Schoenberg’s Pierrot Lunaire in its entirety, with a pre-concert talk with music professor Gordon Root at 7pm, also in Rosch Recital Hall. On Tuesday, Nov. 13 at 8 p.m., Lunar Ensemble will present an evening of new works, including Harlequin Redux by Fredonia faculty member Sean Doyle.

sound world of Schoenberg’s masterpiece. Presented alongside Pierrot Lunaire are seven premiere performances of works written for the Lunar Ensemble for this specific occasion. Although varied in style and approach, these works are united in their spirit of homage to Pierrot Lunaire, demonstrating its significant influence on contemporary music to this day. Speaking personally, it was an honor for me to contribute a new work to be performed as part of this festival - to have musicians of the caliber and sensitivity of the Lunar Ensemble perform my piece, Harlequin Redux, is a real privilege! These concerts will truly be a special, memorable event in our cultural community - they are not to be missed!” The Lunar Ensemble is a Baltimore-based Pierrot ensemble that is committed to promoting fresh, hot-offthe-press music written for the Pierrot instrumentation (flute, clarinet, piano, violin and cello, with/without voice and percussion) by living composers through performance, outreach and education. Founded in 2009, and now in its third season, the Lunar Ensemble established The
Pierrot Centenary Project as a celebration of the centenary of the premiere of Schoenberg’s Pierrot Lunaire. The Pierrot Centenary Project unites all fifty poems of Giraud’s Pierrot Lunaire set to music by Schoenberg and young composers over a two-day educational marathon. In addition to their residency at SUNY Fredonia, the Lunar Ensemble will take the Pierrot Centenary Project to the Peabody Conservatory and Tulane University. The ensemble is made up of fine musicians affiliated with the prestigious Peabody Institute of the John Hopkins University. They have performed at various festivals such as the LAUNCH Music festival in Lancaster PA and the ArtScape Festival in Baltimore MD and in various venues in Baltimore, including the An Die Musik Hall, the Brown Center, the Enoch Pratt Free Library and Shriver Hall. Tickets are available online at www.fredonia.edu/tickets, by phone at 716-673-3501 or in person at the SUNY Fredonia Ticket Office, located in the Williams Center on the SUNY Fredonia campus.

Q&A
Don’t give in to demands of kitten Q: A few months ago, we adopted new kitten from the shelter. We are not inexperienced pet owners. My husband and I both grew up with animals, and we’ve had many pets during our 32-year marriage. The problem? The kitten is very noisy. She follows us everywhere and has an “opinion” on everything. If we don’t pet her or feed her, she gets worse. How can we get her to pipe down? — via Facebook A: Some cats are chattier than others. Indeed, “talkativeness” is an adored trait in the Siamese and other so-called Oriental breeds. If your kitten has a parent who’s one of these breeds, then to a certain extent, you’re just going to have to live with vocalization. Some of the noisiness of a demanding cat is actually trained into the pet by people. If you accommodate her every time she demands to be fed, then you’ve taught her that the squeaky wheel gets the grease, even in the middle of the night or at the crack of dawn. If you think your cat’s chatty behavior is something you’ve taught her, then you can try some retraining. Start by resolving not to give in to her demands — and I do mean resolve. If you ignore her yowling for a while and then give in, you’ve taught her that all she needs to do to get her way is to make more noise, not less. If you ignore the behavior completely, she’ll stop using it to get her way. Be aware, though, that this kitten is likely chattier than the norm. You can minimize some of her demanding behavior through retraining her, but you’ll also have to do some retraining of yourself to learn to appreciate (or at least tolerate) her noise. You’ve made it through 32 years of marriage, which always involves a certain amount of acceptance and compromise. Use these skills with your cat, and you’ll be fine. Funny thing: In reading your question I found myself wishing my own cat were a little more outgoing. Ilario is a very large, long-haired orange tabby, but he’s so reclusive, many visitors to my house never see or hear him at all. — Gina Spadafori Do you have a pet question?

Anyone wanting to keep a pet tiger will no longer be welcome to do so in Ohio. • A year after the release and subsequent killing of dozens of tigers, lions, wolves and bears from a private compound in Zanesville, Ohio, the state is poised to become one the strictest in the keeping of exotic pets. Owners of such animals have until Nov. 5 to register their animals with the state’s department of agriculture, and a complete ban on owning such animals goes into effect Jan. 1, 2013. The few animals captured alive following the tragedy were sent to the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium, and later were ordered returned to the widow of the man who had released the animals before killing himself. • In the wake of a disaster, animals show levels of stress that may make re-adapting to family life difficult, according to a study of pets rescued from the devastated city of Fukushima, Japan, following the earthquake and tsunami. Scientists noted higher than normal levels of the stress hormone cortisol in dogs rescued from the area, and found that the animals seemed slow to form new companionship bonds. The study’s lead author, Dr. Miho Nagasawa of Azabu University, likened the symptoms to post-traumatic stress disorder, according to a report in the Los Angeles Times. • Alabama’s veterinary medical board voted down regulatory changes that opponents said would have shut down the state’s four nonprofit spay-neuter clinics after public protest. Some vets felt that medical care was being compromised by the high number of surgeries in the clinics — up to 50 a day by a single veterinarian. Proponents of the clinics argued that the great danger was leaving animals free to breed in a state that reportedly kills 100,000 pets a year for population control. The regulations were proposed after a law with similar language was defeated in the state legislature. — Dr. Marty Becker

It was merely four weeks ago when Jamestown’s perfect season came undone against the Frontier Falcons, a team that was in desperate need to stay above .500, in a 35-28 loss that seemed to throw a serious fork in the Red Raiders road. Now the two teams will meet with a spot in the Class AA Championship at Ralph Wilson Stadium on the line. Since that loss, though, things have gone pretty well. After all, Jamestown ended Orchard Park’s 18-game winning streak, won a division title at Clarence and steamrolled Hutch Tech in a quarterfinal game last week. “We addressed and corrected a lot of things we did wrong against them that next week,” head coach Tom Langworthy said. “But those things, like tackling, are still on our minds this week.” No, Frontier didn’t blow Jamestown out, but their offense gave the Red Raiders plenty of fits, especially late in the game that ultimately sunk Jamestown. Poor tackling was part of it, but Langworthy credited some new wrinkles that Frontier installed too. “We had problems lining up against formations that we didn’t see in their tape,” Langworthy said. “We’re going to the lengths of preparing guys for stuff that

[Frontier] hasn’t shown, but we think they possibly could. And that’s the key for us to prepare these guys. The less they think, the faster they’ll play.” Preparation will be key for a Frontier team (6-2) that is just as hot as Jamestown. Since that win pushed them to 3-2, Frontier snuck by Lancaster, blew out cross-town rival Hamburg and went on the road to win their quarterfinal game against Niagara Falls.
But as Langworthy stressed last week, it’s imperative for his team to start out fast against Frontier. Jamestown did score first in the last game against the Falcons and twice answered touchdown-tying drives to have a 21-14 lead in the third quarter. But things sort of fell apart from there and wound up losing in the final minute. “We need to score more than 28 points, that’s our philosophy each week,” Langworthy said. “But we
had some three-and-outs and some fundamental errors that we can’t afford to have this week.” The good news is that keeping Jamestown to 28 points or less has proved to be quite a feat. They’ve scored at least four touchdowns in every single game they’ve played this year with a season-low of 27 points twice, one way back in the season opener. Continued on pg 8
Blue Devils 'All In' As 2012-13 Hockey Season Begins Contributed Article
Fredonia State Sports Information
UCI Agrees To Strip Armstrong Of 7 Tour Titles Contributed Article
FREDONIA, N.Y. — Head coach Jeff Meredith is beginning his 25th season behind the Fredonia State hockey bench. He has coached nearly 700 games — 691 to be exact — and has won well over half of them (356-271-64 according to collegehockeystats.net). Meredith said the team has adopted a mantra of "All In" with the seniors beating the drum the loudest. The group consists of forwards Mat Hehr, Ian Cosgrove, John O'Connor, Will McLaughlin, Chris Jung, and Brett Mueller; along with defensemen Ken Nosky and Brad Nunn. Meredith points out the senior group was knocked out in the first round of the SUNYAC Tournament as freshmen, won two playoff games and advanced to the conference championship game as sophomores, and defeated Geneseo before losing to Oswego in the semifinals last year. "They have been," Meredith said, "in a lot of different places in the playoffs except the place they want to be, which is winning the conference tournament. With the eight seniors, there's a large commitment to that." Hehr is the top point-getter among the group (35 goals, 33 assists) while O'Connor, McLaughlin, and Jung, and Mueller have been solid role players. Cosgrove is making a position change from defense to forward, while Nunn has started 77 games — most among all the seniors — and Nosky another 58 games on the blue line. "Hehr put up a fair amount of points last year, a lot of them were powerplay points," Meredith said. "I actu-

ally thought he had a down year last year but he committed himself to the weight room over the summer." Mueller is the team captain and plays the gritty style of game Meredith is expecting from this year's team. He wants the Blue Devils to become more physical while taking fewer penalties than they did last year. He's ready to sit out players who don't follow the plan, and Mueller is helping spread that message to his teammates. "He has done a very good job of leadership, he has a good command of the dressing room," Meredith said. "He's the guy down there. Everything goes through him. I'm excited to have a guy with those qualities." Alex Perkins, a junior forward, is the assistant captain and another player with grit. "He's just a hockey player," Meredith said. "To me that's just a

compliment. He's a guts-and-noglory kind of guy, not afraid to block shots, and do all the little things." Three sophomore forwards figure prominently in the offensive game plan. Jared Wynia was the SUNYAC Rookie of the Year last season after scoring seven goals in just 11 conference games before injuries cost him nearly a third of the season. Stephen Castriota had 10 goals overall, the most among all returning players, while Brian Doust managed seven goals and six assists in 19 games, including a goal in a playoff game vs. Geneseo. “When last season started,” Meredith said, “he (Doust) was just four months off of knee surgery, and then he got mono in November and was out the rest of the semester. He never got a chance to get going. I know we haven't seen the best of him yet and
Meredith said the team has adopted a mantra of "All In" with the seniors beating the drum the loudest. that excites me." With the inclusion of Nosky and Nunn, Meredith feels the Blue Devils are deep on defense in front of two junior goaltenders, starter Mark Friesen and backup Jeff Holloway. Friesen has appeared in 46 games the past two seasons and has posted a 21–18–3 record with a 2.69 goals-against average. During the summer, he took his already intense workout regimen to a new level and put together a training blog complete with video. Continued on pg 2

GENEVA (AP) — Forget the seven Tour de France victories. Forget the yellow jersey celebrations on the Champs Elysees. Forget the name that dominated the sport of cycling for so many years. As far as cycling's governing body is concerned, Lance Armstrong is out of the record books. Once considered the greatest rider in Tour history, the American was cast out Monday by his sport, formally stripped of his seven titles and banned for life for his involvement in what U.S. sports authorities describe as a massive doping program that tainted all of his greatest triumphs. ''Lance Armstrong has no place in cycling and he deserves to be forgotten in cycling,'' said Pat McQuaid, the president said of the International Cycling Union. ''This is a landmark day for cycling.'' McQuaid announced that his group, known as UCI, accepted sanctions imposed by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency and would not appeal them to the Court of Arbitration for Sport. Continued on pg 4

The Fredonia offense struggled last week in a 7-6 win over Allegany-Limestone. It will need to better if Fredonia can spring another road upset against JFK this Saturday. (Submitted photo)
It will be important for Fredonia to have Buckley back at 100 percent to say the least. With the offense as stagnant as it’s been, a game with JFK isn’t exactly what the doctor would prescribe. The Bears have won seven in a row since losing to Fredonia in the season opener and have shut out two of their last three opponents. Besides the Fredonia game, they’ve allowed just 13 points per game. But, a potential break for Fredonia is the fact the game will be played on Saturday, giving Fredonia an extra day to prepare than usual. In fact, it will be the first game they’ve played on Saturday all year and their first since Oct. 1 of last year. “It gives us a chance to get our offense back on track,” Ball said. “We just had a downpour [Tuesday] so we don’t have to worry about getting in a good practice in that weather. But it gives us a little more time so we can be better prepared.” But, don’t expect Ball and Fredonia to venture off from what they’ve done all year, even with the extra time. “I call it the big three,” he said. “Turnovers. Penalties. Defense. We want to get our offense back on track, sure, but we have to take care of the little things and win those three battles.” With a win, Fredonia will move on to the sectional championship game at Ralph Wilson next Saturday. It’s the fifth time in the last six years that Fredonia has advanced to the sectional semifinals — all under Ball — with the team going 2-2 in the previous four contests. They lost to Southwestern last year at home and defeated Grover Cleveland in 2010 before defeating Southwestern in the sectional final. So, keeping his team’s mind on this week’s game, and not on Ralph Wilson Stadium, won’t be too much of a problem. “They’re pretty focused and I think it’s because of the experience level,” Ball said. “We have some three-year starters that been to the Ralph and a lot of these guys last year fell short of getting there last year. It’s good to have those kids experienced in these playoff situations.” But, no Fredonia team has had to do what this squad has. Fredonia knew they’d have to win back-to-back road games to get into the finals next week. They narrowly escaped last week and would gladly take the same result this week. But they’ll have to do it on the field. “I told the guys that if we want to win in this league, we have to be able to do it anywhere,” he said. “Home or road. Grass or turf. Friday or Saturday. Day or night. If we can win, we’ll get another Saturday game next week.”

Buffalo Bills: Halloween Version
Chris Winkler COMMENTARY
tter I seem to be watching the
same horror movie year after year. Similar to the myriad versions of the Hollywood horror series Saw, the Buffalo Bills manage to bring in a new cast of characters only to get slashed on the ground as we all somehow manage to watch in shock. If you didn’t know any better, you would have got Sunday’s nightmarish loss to the Tennessee Titans confused with other efforts of the past. And no, it was not just last year’s 23-17 loss to the Titans when Chris Johnson magically found his game back. How’s Sunday for a sequel with a similar ending? Both games — and probably not coincidence — had huge mid-season playoff implications that went to the Titans because the Bills couldn’t stop a running back slumping more than Alex Rodriguez. OK, that’s a stretch, but Johnson hadn’t even rushed for a touchdown in 2012 coming into Sunday’s game before he ran for two. But the re-run known as Bills played again Sunday. If you still didn’t know any better, you could have got Sunday’s effort confused with something back in 2010, when Buddy Nix and head coach Chan Gailey took over this franchise. That year, we were led to believe the team simply didn’t have enough NFL-caliber players. The defense was thrashed, allowing nearly 6,000 yards of total offense, including an astronomically large 2,714 yards rushing. They were dead last in rushing and 28th in total defense, largely because teams simply didn’t need to throw the ball. But, hey it was because they weren’t any good. At least that’s what we were told. So optimism abound when the team drafted Marcell Dareus with the No. 3 overall pick in 2011. They also spent their second round pick on cornerback Aaron Williams and third round pick on linebacker Kelvin Sheppard. They also signed veteran linebacker Nick Barnett and had reason to believe Shawne Merriman and Kirk Morrison were healthy enough to contribute. They also let Donte Whitner and Paul Posluszny go, while resigning defensive linemen Chris Kelsay and Kyle Williams to a combined $60 million. And, second-year players Alex Carrington and Torrell Troup were sure to make more of an impact. Still, they allowed 2,224 yards rushing, 28th in the league and were 30th in total defense. OK, so the Bills scraped the 3-4 in the ensuing offseason, named veteran Dave Wannstedt defensive coordinator, signed the league’s top free agent Mario Williams to a $100 million contract, signed capable defensive end Mark Anderson away from New England, spent another top 10 pick on defense with cornerback Stephon Gilmore and were ready to count on young-up-and-comers elsewhere on defense. After all of that mumbo jumbo — nine defensive draft picks in the first four
rounds in three years, a new coordinator and nearly $200 million thrown to keeping or bringing players in — the Bills defense is actually worse, unfathomably worse, than the one that we were told simply wasn’t good enough. The Bills have allowed 1,238 yards rushing through seven games. Yes, you guessed it, dead last in the NFL. They’re 31st in total defense and have a turnover differential of nearly -1 per game. They were dead last in turnovers in 2010, too. The NFL’s record for rushing yardage allowed is the Buffalo Bills in 1978, which allowed an astonishing 3,228 yards. While this year’s version isn’t quite on pace to do that (2,830), they are on pace to allow more than both defenses in 2010 and 2011. So, just what exactly is going on? I don’t have the answers, but neither do Nix, Gailey or Wannstedt so I don’t really feel terrible about it. The vaunted defensive line that was considered to be the league’s best could actually be confused for the league’s worst. You really can’t make this stuff up. Mario Williams, $96 million Mario Williams, has 16 tackles and 3.5 sacks through seven games. He’s been a complete and utter disappointment. Dareus has failed to make any impact relevant to a player selected third overall and Anderson is out for a few weeks after doing absolutely nothing. Kyle Williams and Kelsay have been OK, but the team has been so pathetic on the line that they brought back Merriman after releasing him in the offseason. Coincidentally, no other team considered bringing in Merriman for the last two months. So, if you want to forgive Nix and Gailey, go right ahead, but it doesn’t mean they deserve to keep their jobs. They spent valuable resources of money and high-end draft picks on guys they thought would help out. They sadly haven’t done anything. The linebackers outside of Barnett have been invisible. Let’s just say no linebacker in the history of the league has ever been regarded as a starter while being invisible. The position breeds statistical headlines. You either make plays or you don’t and nobody besides Barnett has. But, I struggle to think a crappy linebacker unit is the sole problem of this defense. In case you haven’t realized, pressure on the opposing quarterback is minimal, unless it’s from backup Kyle Moore. And tackling in the secondary has been just as miserable. I won’t even get into the offense, which might have been good enough last week, but was against a Tennessee defense who can thank the Bills (and Saints) for not being the worst in the league statistically. Plus, Fitzpatrick made fairly routine passes all day until the final few minutes when the Bills truly needed him. He threw one of the ugliest interceptions he’s thrown all year, which is really saying something. I can blabber on and on and on about this team, but in the end, we know they’re not good enough. The playoff drought will hit a 13th consecutive season. In all likelihood, Ralph Wilson will not extend Chan Gailey and we can start this movie all over again in 2013. Horror genre? It’s really starting to resemble a comedy.

NFL Could Drop Pro Bowl Panthers GM Hurney Fired After Team's 1-5 Start
Marty Hurney was let go by the Carolina Panthers after the team dropped to 1-5. Hurney had been the team's GM since 2002. (AP Photo)
a new GM is hired, a person familiar with the situation told The Associated Press. The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because the move has not been announced. Hurney said he regrets not winning a Super Bowl in Carolina — they lost 32-29 to New England for the 2003 title — and the team's inability to post back-to-back winning seasons. ''I hope this change starts accomplishing the direction to those goals,'' Hurney said. ''I am responsible for everybody in coaching, the players, the scouts and everybody in football operations. After six weeks, we are 1-5 coming off a 6-10 season.'' Hurney was general manager when the Panthers went to the Super Bowl and the NFC championship games in the 2003 and 2005 seasons, as well as winning the NFC South in 2008. ''Marty made every effort to bring success to the Panthers and took the team to a Super Bowl and two NFC championship games,'' Panthers owner Jerry Richardson said. ''Unfortunately, we have not enjoyed the success we hoped for in recent years. I have the greatest respect and admiration for Marty and will always appreciate the way he tirelessly served the organization.'' Hurney was well liked and respected within the organization, but his personnel decisions in the draft and in free agency were routinely criticized by fans tired of the Panthers' losing ways.

The Ironmen earned four out of a possible four points during this past weekend’s home stand, and will now ready for a trip to Port Huron next weekend. The Ironmen will return home on Friday, Nov. 2, to square off against Michigan at 7 p.m. Friday, Jamestown extended their winning streak to five straight with a 2-1 overtime
victory over the Kalamazoo. The back and forth, fast-paced contest stood scoreless all the way into the third period until Kalamazoo broke the scoring silence and took a 1-0 lead with 8:38 remaining in regulation. The hometown team answered quickly, as Ironmen forward, Evan Ritt scored his fourth goal of the season off of a rebound in front of the net less than five minutes later, knotting up the game, 1-1. That score held true through regulation and the game headed into overtime, where Daniel Cesarz snuck a wrist shot under the Kalamazoo goaltenders arm to seal the deal for the Ironmen, only 20 seconds into the extra period. “They scored first, but our confidence in what we are doing is very strong right now,” acknowledged Ironmen Head Coach and General Manager, Dan Daikawa. “We never wavered and we continue to do the little things to win games.”

FRISCO, Texas — The North American Hockey League (NAHL) announced the Divisional Stars of the Week presented by Combat Hockey for the week ending October 21, 2012. The Divisional Stars of the Week is a weekly feature during the 2012-13 regular season that honors the top performing players in each of the four NAHL divisions as nominated by their respective teams.
n d. ers, n ix off a North Division Star of
the Week:
ger Daniel Cesarz, forward, Jamestown Ironmen FC Jamestown forward Daniel e Cesarz, 20, was on a mission this past weekend against his former team, the Kalamazoo Jr. K-Wings.

The t native of Redford, Michigan, ed had a goal and assist in each he game. In Friday’s 2-1 win, a- Cesarz (5’10/185) also had ays the game-winning goal and ssly in Saturday’s 7-3 win, he also chimed in with a goal and assist. Cesarz was +5 on the weekend. Cesarz is currently riding a five-game point streak n and a four-game goal streak. The entire team wanted to he prove a point last weekend and Daniel led the charge,” n- said Ironmen head coach Dan d Daikawa. “He was the best player on the ice all weekend. He creates so much offense
with his speed and skating. He is also a great kid and we feel very fortunate to have him on the roster this season.” 2nd Star: Tyler Marble, goaltender, Soo Eagles Honorable Mention (alphabetical): Michael Covach, forward, Soo Eagles – Ryan Kellenberger, goaltender, Springfield Jr. Blues – Matt Leon, goaltender, Springfield Jr. Blues – Ian Miller, forward, Port Huron Fighting Falcons – Max Milosek, goaltender, Port Huron Fighting Falcons – Ruslan Pedlan, defenseman, Janesville Jets – Austin Priebe, goaltender, Janesville Jets – Patrick Spellacy, forward, Kalamazoo Jr. K-Wings.
Central Division Star of the Week: Jay Dickman, forward, Austin Bruins As one of the biggest players in the league, Austin forward Jay Dickman, 19, showed his offensive touch this weekend as he helped his 1st place Bruins take three of four points in a weekend series at Bismarck against the Bobcats. For the weekend, the native of Shoreview, Minnesota, had four points (4 assists) to lead the Bruins. On Friday, he recorded two assists and five shots in a 4-3 overtime loss. The next night, Dickman (6’6/225) again would record two assists in a 4-3 win. For the season, Dickman has nine points in seven games played. “Jay is a big guy that protects the puck well,” said Bruins head coach Chris Tok. “For his size he has great hands and vision. Although he is big, he would prefer to be creative on the offensive side rather than be just a physical forward. He really set up his teammates nicely this weekend.” 2nd Star: Tim Donohue, forward, Minot Minotauros
Honorable Mention (alphabetical): Eric Brenk, forward, Brookings Blizzard – Johno May, forward, Bismarck Bobcats – Aaron Nelson, goaltender, Bismarck Bobcats – Tyler Parks, goaltender, Minot Minotauros – AJ Reid, forward, Austin Bruins – Derek Sand, defenseman, Brookings Blizzard.

In Friday’s 3-2 overtime loss, he registered an assist and was +1. In Saturday’s 9-3 win, Davis (5’11/180) had two goals and an assist and was a +2. The native of Newark, Delaware, extended his point streak to seven straight games with his performance, and is second on the team in scoring this season with 12 points. Now in his second season with the Bulls in the NAHL, head coach Dennis Williams thinks Davis has really improved… “Mike has improved tremendously this season. We originally got him through the NAHL Draft and he really had a nice finish to the season last year that gave him some great confidence and momentum coming into this year. He is reaping the rewards right now for his hard work in the off-season.” 2nd Star: Brandon Hawkins, forward, Texas Tornado Honorable Mention (alphabetical): Tyler Deresky, forward, Amarillo Bulls – Joe Ginley, forward, Corpus Christi IceRays – Leo Lumm, forward, Texas Tornado – Spencer Viele, goaltender,

Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway
1. Brad Keselowski 2,250 (finished eighth) He wove his way through several crashes to preserve his points lead. “It seemed like every wreck that happened, happened right in front of me,” he said. “It was a tough day.” 2. Jimmie Johnson -7 (finished ninth) Despite a wreck that looked as if it could send their car to the garage for lengthy repairs, the No. 48 crew patched up their car and Johnson drove it to a top-10 finish. 3. Denny Hamlin -20 (finished 13th) Early race handling woes, coupled with a late stop for fuel, left him with a mediocre finish. But some of his best tracks remain on the schedule, including Martinsville, where he has four wins. “We just shot ourselves in the foot a lot,” he said. 4. Clint Bowyer -25 (finished sixth) He had hoped to back up his Charlotte victory with another at his home track, but it was not to be. “We’ve just got to keep digging,” he said. “I was hoping to gain a little bit more than that, but we had a solid day. Just frustrating, though.”

Good chemistry
6. Martin Truex Jr. -43 (finished second) Another strong run at Kansas wasn’t enough to give him much of a boost in the points standings. “That’s a good run for us, for sure,” he said. “Just a little bit too tight there at the end there to run with Matt [Kenseth].
Newman, former crew chief Borland reunited
I
n Sprint Cup racing, or any team sport for that matter, chemistry between driver and crew, or coach and players, is often cited as one of the keys to success. Team chemistry is difficult to explain and almost impossible to intentionally create. It just seems to happen. When it does, the results are often phenomenal. But the chemistry also can be lost, and the results soon show it. In NASCAR racing, some of the sport’s all-time win leaders had their best years while working with the same crew chief. Richard Petty, the sport’s all-time win leader with 200 race victories, had most of his success with his cousin Dale Inman as crew chief. David Pearson, second on the all-time list with 105 wins, got the biggest chunk of them with Leonard Wood as his crew chief. Jeff Gordon had his best years with Ray Evernham as his crew chief, and Bobby Labonte was at his best with Jimmy Makar calling the shots. Together they won 19 races, but Labonte has only won two since they parted. Ryan Newman won 12 races and 37 poles while working with crew chief Matt Borland at Penske Racing from 20022006. Since then, Newman has won four races and 11 poles. But beginning this week at Martinsville Speedway, Newman and Borland will be reunited. The change is part of a personnel shuffle at Stewart-Haas Racing that will see Newman’s current crew chief, Tony Gibson, move to Danica Patrick’s team beginning at her home
track, Phoenix International Raceway. Now the NASCAR world will see if Newman and Borland can recreate their winning chemistry. Greg Zipadelli, the former crew chief for Tony Stewart who now serves as competition director at Stewart-Haas Racing, believes they can. “Matt Borland has had great success as a crew chief, and much of it came when he and Ryan Newman worked together,” Zipadelli said in a team release. “Matt and Ryan both have engineering backgrounds, and they have similar mindsets. It’s a pairing that produced some very good results and there’s no reason why it can’t produce similar results now that they’re back together. Their four races together this year will position them very well for 2013.” Zipadelli isn’t alone in the Sprint Cup garage when it comes to seeking the right chemistry among key members of a race team. Eddie Wood, part of the second generation of the Wood Brothers racing team, said when a team hits on the right combination of personnel, it should do everything it can to keep them together. “I used to make fun of people who talked about chemistry, but I’m pretty much a believer in it now, because I’ve lived it,” he said. “There have been combinations that have been magic and shouldn’t have gotten messed up and changed, but they did. “And it was usually outside interference.”
NOTEBOOK
Cautions, sliding at Kansas After much of this year’s Sprint Cup season has seen races run for long stretches of green-flag racing, and many events boil down to fuel-mileage contests, along came the Hollywood Casino 400 on the repaved and reconfigured Kansas Speedway. The race saw a track record – and Cup seasonhigh – 14 caution periods, most of them for wrecks that saw many of the sport’s most skilled drivers losing control of the cars and slamming into the wall. Even race winner Matt Kenseth smacked the wall at one point. “Everything is just on edge,” said Kyle Busch after he was involved in a crash with Ryan Newman. “You’re really slipping and sliding and fighting for as much grip as you can find out there.” Busch admitted he’d been struggling with a loose condition with his car, but still blamed Newman for the crash. “Newman just ran up on the back of me and got me loose – I’ve been loose all day – and then he ran into the back of me and spun me out, so just impatience … “I don’t know what that was for or why or whatever, but I’m glad he’s wrecked along with me, and he’ll get another one here before the year is out.” Newman said the wreck was Busch’s fault. “He just got loose in front of me, and it’s so fast [at Kansas] it’s hard to check up when he is getting sideways,” he said. “He already lost control of the car once earlier in the race. It’s kind of treacherous on the tires.” Jimmie Johnson, who wrecked his car but bounced back to finish ninth, said it was hard to keep from crashing.
Stewart: Danica’s schedule not easy Danica Patrick has struggled in her limited Sprint Cup appearances this year, but her car owner Tony Stewart said that one day she’ll thank him for that, as it should speed up the learning curve as she makes the difficult transition from Danica Patrick open-wheel Indy cars to NASCAR-style cars. “We picked races that were going to be hard,” he said. “They are not supposed to be easy … “There wasn’t anything to learn by going to easy tracks this year on a partial schedule. The schedule she is going to have next year, she is going to have to go to these hard tracks. Being able to just have the experience of going the year before, even if it’s a rough experience, you at least learn and get a base of that track. “Any time you do something for the first time it’s tough. The second time is always easier … “Though she may not see the benefit of it right now, she will next year.”
“Restarts were pretty wild,” he said. “You had to run so hard that when something happened and you lost grip, the car just stood up on the tires and would take off and you couldn’t control it, and the guys were sliding everywhere.” It wasn’t just the guys who were sliding everywhere. Danica Patrick wrecked her No. 10 Chevrolet after intentionally spinning Landon Cassill’s No. 83 Toyota. “It’s been pretty consistent with [Cassill] getting into me,” Patrick said. “So at some point in time, I have to stand up for myself, or everybody’s going to do it.” Cassill, on his two-way radio, offered his comment. “Rule No. 1 in stock car racing is learn how to wreck someone without wrecking yourself,” he said. Cassill, who escaped the Patrick effort at retaliation without significant damage to his car, went on to finish 18th, tying his best finish of the season. Patrick finished 32nd, not far off her average finish of 30.2 in eight Cup starts this year.
Ford, RPM renew partnership Ever since the announcement that Penske Racing is moving from Dodge to the Ford camp beginning next season, there have been questions about how the move would affect other Fordbacked teams, particularly Richard Petty Motorsports. But last week Ford and RPM announced they would continue their partnership into next season, which means Petty’s two Cup teams and one Nationwide entry will be running Fords for the fourth straight year. RPM announced that it will continue to race the
5. Kasey Kahne -30 (finished fourth) He was running second late in the race, but stalled his car trying to save fuel under caution and dropped to sixth for the final restart, ending what appeared to be a good chance for victory. “We had a good car; we got back to fourth,” he said.
7. Tony Stewart -47 (finished fifth) The defending Cup champion overcame a penalty for driving away from his pit stall with a wrench in his car, then saved his car when he looked to be about to crash. “We have a ways to go, but I’m really proud of our guys,” he said. 8. Jeff Gordon -51 (finished 10th) His crash in the Chase opener at Chicagoland, and resulting 35th-place finish, continues to haunt him. Since then, he’s had an average finish of 7th, compared to the 5.7 average posted by Keselowski in all six Chase races to date. 9. Matt Kenseth -55 (finished first) Despite being one of the many drivers who hit the wall, he bounced back to get his second Chase win and third overall this season. Still, his setbacks in early Chase races have him essentially out of the running for the title. “We went through a couple months where we didn’t perform as well,” he said. “Unfortunately, one of those months ran into the Chase.” 10. Kevin Harvick -59 (finished 11th) His Chase results have been remarkably consistent, with five finishes between 11th and 13th and one of 16th, but that’s not good enough to contend for the championship. 11. Greg Biffle -62 (finished 27th) The points leader at the end of the 26-race regular season had another disappointing outing as he crashed out while running third. “I wrecked it bad,” he radioed to his crew as he drove his battered car to the pits. 12. Dale Earnhardt Jr. -122 (did not compete) After sitting out the past two races while recuperating from concussions, he’s expected to return to the No. 88 Chevrolet this week at Martinsville Speedway, but his title hopes are over for this year.
No. 9 Fusion with backing from Stanley and Dewalt and the No. 43 Ford Fusion with Smithfield Foods. Aric Almirola drives the No. 43, and Marcos Ambrose the No. 9. The team’s No. 43 Nationwide Series entry, driven by Michael Annett, will return with backing from Pilot/Flying J.
No Prelude charity race for 2012 Tony Stewart confirmed last week that the popular Prelude to the Dream Late Model race at his Eldora Speedway in Rossburg, Ohio, won’t be run next year. The race featured top drivers from various forms of motorsports, including Sprint Cup, racing Late Model cars on the dirt at Eldora with the proceeds going to charity. “It takes a ton of work to put the Prelude on,” Stewart said. “We are changing our format for how we run the Dream [Late Model race] that weekend, making it a three-day weekend with that series. We are trying to focus on that a little bit more and some changes that we think are going to be better for our Late Model race. “We just needed to take a year off while we focus on that, and make sure that we don’t get overloaded for that.” He said he expected the Prelude to return at some point in the future. Stewart also addressed speculation that NASCAR was considering running a Camping World Truck Series race at Eldora. “I would be ecstatic if we could get any NASCAR race at Eldora,” he said. “That would be great. I have talked to NASCAR. They have been looking at all kinds of different tracks. “It has been brought up in conversation, but that is about as far as it has come right now.”

Bonnies Best Xavier Thanks To Curry Goal in Overtime Contributed Article
St. Bonaventure Sports Information
CINCINNATI, Ohio — After sophomore Brittany Charles scored off her own corner kick at the 82nd minute to tie the game, St. Bonaventure (6-10-1, 3-4) ended its twogame losing streak Sunday as sophomore Molly Curry headed in a goal in the 102:50 mark for a 2-1 victory in the second overtime. The Bonnies started off aggressive, attempting five shots, two on goal, within the first 11 minutes and finished the game with a season-high 28 shots (18 on goal) at the Xavier Soccer Complex. St. Bonaventure's first legitimate attempt at goal came at the 14:27 mark as freshman Abby Maiello's shot just sailed a couple inches above Xavier's goalkeeper Katie Markesbery

and the crossbar. The Bonnies kept Markesbery busy the entire first half led by sophomore Alicia Elwell's three shots on goal. Maiello added two shots on goal, while junior Alyssa Lapp, sophomores Brittany Charles and Molly Curry and freshman Stephanie Jenkins each had one in the first half. Xavier first and only first half shot attempt came at 28:01 from junior Taylor Dearbaugh.
Xavier (6-10-1, 1-6) had its first legitimate scoring opportunity at 57:47 off freshman Erin McGauley's corner kick, but St. Bonaventure's senior goalkeeper Katie Kerkman came up with a point blank save and two Bonnies defenders blocked another two off rebounds. However, Xavier scored minutes later off another McGauley corner kick as junior Ashton Green scored her second goal of the season
on junior Mariah Whitaker's rebound at the 59:06 mark. Charles, who also had the game-winning assist to Curry, now has a team-high six assists. Curry scored her second goal of the season, first since Sept. 23 versus Canisus. Prior to her game-winning header in the top left corner, Curry almost won the game within the first two minutes as her shot hit off the top crossbar just over a diving Markesbery. Markesbery, who led the conference in saves, saves percentage and saves per game last season, had a career-high 16 saves. Kerkman finished with four saves. St. Bonaventure returns home Friday to host University of Massachusetts Amherst at 3 p.m. and closes off the season hosting Rhode Island on Oct. 28 at 1 p.m.

Men's Cross Country Back Bonnies Take Early Lead But Fall To Nationally Ranked Xavier In Regional Rankings Contributed Article
St. Bonaventure Sports Information
ST. BONAVENTURE, N.Y. — The Bonnies (4-11, 2-3) jumped ahead early but could not hold off the nationally ranked Xavier Musketeers (10-0-4, 3-0-2) who would go on to take a 2-1 victory at McGraw-Jennings Field Sunday afternoon. It would not take long for the Bonnies to show that they would not be intimidated by the No. 13/9 team in the nation. Just 17 seconds into the game Emmett O'Connor set up Brad Vanino for a clean shot at the net. Vanino's offering would sail wide left without forcing the Xavier goalkeeper to make the save. SBU would keep the pressure on and create another golden opportunity for Vanino in the seventh minute. The Sinking Spring, Pa. native gained control of the ball in the Xavier

box and fired away another clean look but this time the shot would be blocked by a Musketeer defender. Xavier would get off just one shot prior to the 24th minute when Vanino broke free once again down the left side and put a shot on net that XU goalkeeper Justin Marshall deflected. Bonnies forward James Reed capitalized on the fumbled save and headed the bouncing ball into the back of the net to give SBU a 1-0 lead. The lead would not last
however. A Xavier breakaway resulted in a challenge from SBU goalkeeper Abel Bautista. The senior went in a bit too hard and a foul was called resulting in a penalty kick for the Musketeers.

Senior Elias Homerin was the lone other Bona swimmer to post a first-place finish as he claimed the 1,000-yard freestyle in dominating fashion, finishing seven seconds clear of his nearest competitor in 9:41.90.

Long Island product earned 290.18 points. Later in the day on the 3-meter, he increased his point total to 293.78 but finished just more than one point behind the winner. In addition to being a member of both top-three relay teams, Pilyugin placed second in the 100 backstroke (51.68), finishing just a half second out of first. The freshman came back later in the day and recorded yet another great performance, this time in the 200-yard backstroke, as he touched in 1:53.90 to claim third place. Lets, who swam the closing leg of the 200 free relay, also added a second-place finish to his day when he touched in the 200-yard back in 1:51.22.

In the 70th minute following a hand-ball call on the Bonnies, Gino De Paoli of Xavier set up a free kick from the left side of the field. With the left foot he sent a line drive across the goal mouth and to the foot of Nick Hagglund who re-directed the ball home for the score. The Bonnies were only able to generate minor chances from then on and the final score would settle at 2-1. SBU will be back at it next weekend looking to position themselves for a chance to make their first Atlantic 10 Championship since 2010. The Bonnies will travel to UMass on Friday (Oct. 26) then stay on the road and head to Rhode Island for a Sunday matinee matchup with Rams.

St. Bonaventure Sports Information
PITTSBURGH — Junior Jimmy Martin led the St. Bonaventure men's swimming and diving team with a pair of first-place finishes and a couple of top-three relay finishes, but the Bonnies fell to the University of Pittsburgh in their season opener Saturday, 207-93. Martin placed first in both the 100- and 200-yard freestyle events, winning the 100 with a time of 45.79, and touching the 200 in 1:39.82. In his first event of the afternoon, Martin anchored the 200-yard medley relay team of Michael Pilyugin, Matthew Schutt and Nathan Destree to a second-place showing in 1:34.68.

Wild Quarterfinal Weekend Trims Leagues Down To Four
Heading into last week, 44 high schools were still competing for a league championship. That number has been directly cut in half with a championship game already decided with Ellicottville ready to meet Clymer at Ralph Wilson Stadium next week. The other five leagues, though, are still undecided. Each league has been trimmed down to four teams with one win separating 20 teams from reaching a season-long goal of reaching the sectional championship. Of the 44 teams, 11 schools were from Chautauqua County. Now with 22 teams left, five county teams are still alive.
Knights a win. Maple Grove dominated I-Prep, but that was a forgone conclusion. Portville beating Chautauqua Lake wasn’t a total surprise, but the question is can Portville go on the road for a second straight week and compete? The Panthers held Maple Grove to 21 points a few weeks ago but couldn’t get anything going offensively. We’ll see if veteran coach Gary Swetland can change things up this week. Last Week’s Favorites: Maple Grove. New Outlook: No change here. It’s seemingly Maple Grove and everyone else. I wouldn’t necessarily have them on upset alert Friday, but I think Portville can give them a game. Regardless, I’ll stick with my original projection of Maple Grove and Silver Creek.

South division dominance reigned supreme yet again after the league’s usually better league went 3-1 in the quarterfinals and would have swept their north foes completely if it wasn’t for Lockport’s stunning comeback Saturday to edge Clarence. But, with that win, things largely went according to plan. Frontier sprung the only upset by beating Niagara Falls 21-7, but was probably the better team anyhow. Regardless, Niagara Falls was the only home to lose. Top-seeded Jamestown cruised over Hutch Tech 60-22 while co-favorite Orchard Park defeated Kenmore West 49-33. So, this sets up Orchard Park heading to Lockport and Frontier heading to Jamestown. Interestingly, both of these games will be rematches and both home teams will be looking for revenge. Orchard Park won in Lockport 42-21 back in Week 1 and Frontier tripped up Jamestown for the Red Raiders only loss back in Week 5 at Frontier.

Last Week’s Favorites: Jamestown and Orchard Park. New Outlook: The favorites are really still in the driver seat here, although Orchard Park is going to have to go on the road and beat Lockport — certainly easier said than done. Jamestown couldn’t get enough stops last time out with Frontier and lost 35-28, but might have better luck at home. I’ll stick with OP and Jamestown moving on for a pretty big rematch at Ralph Wilson.
One was by Fredonia who snuck by Allegany-Limestone 7-6 and kept their season alive thanks to a late touchdown and a bobbled snap on the game’s final play, which was a short field goal attempt. The other upset was last year’s sectional runner-up Cleve Hill knocking off Salamanca 28-21. It’s the second year in a row Salamanca entered the playoffs as C North’s top seed only to be knocked off in the first round at home. Last year, they lost to Akron. Home teams JFK (27-0 over Cassadaga Valley) and Wilson (27-8 over Westfield) cruised into the semifinals. Last Week’s Favorites: None. New Outlook: We knew the league was balanced, we just didn’t know it resides completely in the North Divi-
Class C
In complete contrast with Class AA, it was North Division dominance as they swept all four games with a pair of close road wins stealing the headlines. The North Division has now won seven of the eight first round games over the past two years.
sion. JFK and Wilson were expected to win and did so convincingly. Cleve Hill and Fredonia won tight road games and will have to do so for the second week in a row. Both games should be extremely tight with both road teams as confident as ever, so I’ll go with Fredonia and Cleve Hill to reach the final.
Class D
We didn’t learn a whole heck of a lot last weekend except that Silver Creek and Randolph truly are the second tier in Class D. After losing tight games to Maple Grove and Randolph to open the year, Silver Creek is 5-1 since and is really starting to roll. The game of the weekend in the county will be Silver Creek heading back into Randolph for a huge rematch after the Week 2 debacle where a late fumble cost the Black

Credit the Clymer Pirates for finding a way to beat Sherman on the road. It’s the second straight year Clymer won a road playoff game to clinch a spot at Ralph Wilson Stadium. Now, they’ll look to avenge last year’s loss when they couldn’t seem to get anything going against Chautauqua Lake. They’ll face Ellicottville, who easily beat Panama. If the regular season game taught us anything, we could be in for a dandy at the Ralph as Clymer tripped up Ellicottville in overtime 20-14 during Week 2. In that game, Clymer scored two fourth quarter touchdowns to tie the game at 14 before winning in overtime. Last Week’s Favorites: None. New Outlook: It wasn’t as wide open as Class C, but you could have made an argument for any of the top three teams. Clymer certainly had the tougher test, but both teams will have the week off to prepare for the championship game Nov. 3.

But it’s been even tougher to stop this team at Strider Field. In five games at home, Jamestown is 5-0 while averaging 39.8 points per game. They haven’t been held under 35 at home since that season opening win where they still won by 19. “Our preseason goals were to go undefeated at home and get back to the Ralph,” Langworthy said, as he’s said all year. “If we win this week, we’ll clinch both of those. It’s just very important to me to control our home games.” You could say the offense has been on a roll lately, but that’s just par for the course for this team this year. Junior running back Da’Quan Hollingsworth went over the 1,000-yard rushing mark after 200-plus yard game against Hutch Tech. Important considering Hollingsworth was held under 100 yards for the first time since Week 1 the previous week against Clarence. He also ran for five touchdowns to give him 17 on the year. But, they’ll need more than Hollingsworth. He had 212 yards and three rushing touchdowns against Frontier last time and that wasn’t good enough. But since then, Jamestown’s offense has taken off because of junior quarterback Jacob Sisson has really found a groove with his young sopho-
more targets Zach Panebianco and Stephen Carlson. Sisson has thrown for about 1,400 yards and 16 touchdowns this year. His 58 yards passing against Hutch Tech were the fewest this season, but Sisson only attempted eight passes, also a season low, as Jamestown’s running game took control. Prior to that, though, he had thrown for 518 yards and seven touchdowns in his last two games. Still, for the young Red Raiders, a chance to play at an NFL stadium is there for the taking. Avenging their only loss would be an added bonus. “We’re always a one-weekat-a-time team,” Langworthy said. “Anytime you’re a competitor, you’ll want that revenge, but we just need to go out and execute the gameplan like we do each week.” Lately, that gameplan has worked to perfection. But as is the case in the playoffs, the road only gets tougher. The big win over Hutch Tech was nice, but it was against a onewin team. There is no doubt that Frontier poses a bigger threat to Jamestown’s goals. “We expect a heck of a fight out of Frontier,” Langworthy said. “They’ll play a complete game. They’ll play for 48 minutes. So we need to come out and play better than them for 48 minutes.”

From there, Polian molded a team that featured Hall of Famers Bruce Smith and Thurman Thomas, as well as stalwarts such as receiver Andre Reed and linebacker Darryl Talley. The Bills played in five AFC championships in six years, and went to four consecutive Super Bowls. ''They were a great and unique team,'' Polian said. ''To have the resiliency to come back after you're defeated in the biggest game of the year, and the biggest game of your life, and to be able to bounce back and do what they did speaks volumes about what Marv taught

Polian eventually did win a Super Bowl when he was president of the Indianapolis Colts, but acknowledged that being honored by the Bills ranks higher in his mind. ''This is right at the top,'' he said. ''You learn as you go through a long career that the accolades and the rings and the trophies don't mean much. In the end, what you're left with is the experiences, the friendships, and the memories ... and I wouldn't trade my time here for anything in the world.''

Amerks Report: Foligno Leads Way To Wild Win Contributed Article Rochester Americans
The Rochester Americans defeated the Hershey Bears 8-7 at Giant Center in Hershey on Saturday night in a battle of the American Hockey League’s two oldest franchises. The high-scoring affair saw the Amerks rally from a pair of three-goal deficits behind a career-best four-point performance from Marcus Foligno, who finished with two goals and two assists. After trailing by scores of 4-1 and 5-2 during the second period, Rochester scored six times in the final 28 minutes of the contest, with four of the goals coming on the power play. Foligno was one of five Amerks players to record multipoint games, as T.J. Brennan added two goals and an assist, Cody Hodgson collected three assists, Mark Mancari scored one and assisted on another, and Brayden McNabb registered a pair of assists. Rick Schofield, Evan Rankin and Luke Adam each scored their first goals of the season in the victory while goaltender David Leggio finished with 32 saves. Jeff Taffe (1+3) and Garrett Stafford (0+4) each recorded four points to lead the way for the Bears, who also got two goals from Ryan Stoa. Hershey opened the scoring at the 7:57 mark of the first period when Taffe scored his first goal of the season. Taffe, a former Amerk, took a cross-ice feed from Garrett Mitchell and put a shot just inside the right post to give Hershey a 1-0 lead. Cameron Schilling also assisted on the goal. Later in the period, Schofield scored his first goal in an Amerks uniform to tie the game at one. With players scrambling for the puck in the slot, Schofield’s shot was deflected in front, causing the puck to pop up in the air and land

behind Bears netminder Dany Sabourin and over the goal line. Matt MacKenzie picked up the lone assist on the goal for his first point of the season. Hershey then scored twice in the closing minutes of the first to take a 3-1 lead into the intermission. First, Stafford took a shot from the point that appeared to be headed wide of the net, but Mitchell got his blade on the puck to re-direct it into the net. Then with just 54 seconds remaining in the frame, Tomas Kundratek converted on a Bears power play off assists from Taffe and Jon DiSalvatore to give Hershey a two-goal lead.

the second period while skating with a 5-on-3 advantage. After working the puck around the zone, DiSalvatore took a feed near the bottom of the right face-off circle and fired a wrist shot that found its way to the back of the net. Rankin then scored his first goal of the season as he converted on a perfect centering pass from Foligno to cut the Bears’ lead to 4-2. Alex Biega also assisted on the goal for his first point of the season. Stoa restored Hershey’s three-goal lead with the team’s third power play goal of the game. His shot from the point deflected of the skates of two different players before getting past Leggio.
NHL, Union Still Talking But Not Negotiating NHL Schedule: What Would Have Been… Cancellation Counter: 135 (Through Thursday, Nov. 1)

By Ira Podell Associated Press
NEW YORK (AP) — While the NHL and the players' association are keeping the lines of communication open, they don't seem to be moving any closer to getting back to the bargaining table. For the second straight day, representatives on both sides of the lockout had telephone conversations Sunday. None of those talks have yet led to concrete negotiations that could lead to an elusive collective bargaining agreement and get the delayed hockey season going. ''We had a conference call today to answer some of their questions,'' NHL Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly told The Associated Press in an email Sunday. ''No bargaining. And no bargaining meetings scheduled.''
Daly and NHLPA special counsel Steve Fehr also had discussions on Saturday. NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman and union executive director Donald Fehr didn't take part in Sunday's conference call, Daly said. The lockout entered its 39th day Wednesday. Both sides said they made proposals this week that could provide the basis for an agreement. ''There are multiple frameworks for a deal on the table,'' Steve Fehr said Sunday. ''We gave them three good ones on Thursday. Each moves toward a 50-50 split of (hockey-related revenue) that the league wants. Each allows the contracts in place to be honored. ''Unfortunately, after considering these proposals for about 10 minutes the league rejected them and essentially said that
they are not moving off their last proposal.'' On Friday, the NHL canceled all games through Nov. 1. The league said in its most recent proposal to the players that a deal must be reached by Thursday in order for the season to start on Nov. 2 and for each team to play a complete 82-game season. A total of 135 games have been called off and are in danger of being canceled for good if an agreement isn't reached during the upcoming week. More games could also be in danger soon, including the annual New Year's Day Winter Classic that is slated to pit the Detroit Red Wings against the Toronto Maple Leafs at outdoor Michigan Stadium. Negotiations broke off quickly Thursday in Toronto after the NHLPA made three counterproposals that were rejected

Down three goals, the Amerks responded by scoring two goals in a 35-second span to close the gap. Playing the point on the power play, Mancari took a wrist shot from the top of the left circle that was deflected in front by Adam to make it a 5-3 game. Just 35 seconds later, Hodgson rushed the puck down the right side and fed a beautiful cross-ice pass into the blue paint for Foligno, who knocked it in for his fourth of the season. Brennan then tied the game at five when he took a pass at the blue line from Foligno, broke in down the right wing boards and fired a perfectly-placed wrist shot into the top left corner of the net. It was Rochester’s third straight goal and gave Brennan his second consecutive multi-point game. Hershey scored early in the third period when Mattias Sjogren converted a pass from behind the net from Boyd Kane to give the Bears a 6-5 lead. But then the Amerks power play once again came alive, scoring the game’s next three goals in a two-minute span. First, Brennan blasted a one-timer from the point off a feed from McNabb for his second goal of the game and third on the weekend to tie things up at six. Then just 28 seconds later, Foligno scored his second of the game on a spinning back-hander in front of the net after a cross-ice pass from Hodgson as the Amerks went up 7-6 to finally claim their first lead of the game. Just 90 seconds after that, Mancari scored a man-advantage goal to give Rochester a two-goal lead. Mancari’s goal proved to be the game-winner, as Stoa made it 8-7 in the closing minutes of the third period. Rochester held off the Hershey attack in the game’s final minute and left Giant Center with an 8-7 victory.
NHL Cancels Regular Season Schedule Through Nov. 1 Contributed Article Buffalo Sabres
BUFFALO, N.Y. — The National Hockey League announced the cancellation of the 2012-13 regular-season schedule through Nov. 1. A total of 135 regular-season games were scheduled for Oct. 11 through Nov. 1. The cancellation of the schedule was necessary because of the absence of a Collective Bargaining Agreement between the NHL Players’ Association and the NHL. The Sabres will continue to maintain contact with all season ticket holders and mini-pack holders regarding the work stoppage and ticket refunds due to missed games. As previously communicated, the Sabres will offer the following options to our season ticket holders and mini pack holders who have purchased tickets for the 2012-13 season: Option 1: At the end of each month, the Sabres will refund any games that are cancelled by the NHL. For example, on Nov. 1, the Sabres
will refund all regular-season games that were cancelled by the NHL in the month of October. The refund process will be communicated to our season-ticket holders and mini pack ticket-holders (via email and/or mail) if and when games have been cancelled by the NHL. Option 2: The Sabres will offer season-ticket holders and mini pack ticket-holders 4% simple interest per annum on the value of the games that are cancelled by the NHL. Ticket holders will be able to choose which option they would prefer. Fans that have purchased individual game tickets will be automatically credited for all games that have been cancelled. A comprehensive information guide regarding the NHL work stoppage and the Sabres’ ticket refund policy is available at Sabres.com and will be communicated to all ticket-holders through email and mail. For more information on the work stoppage and continuing negotiations, visit NHL.com.

Lake Erie Fishing Hotline
Contributed Article Department of Environmental Conservation
Last Thursday night's rainstorms brought Cattaraugus Creek water flow up from uncommonly lower levels for this time of year. Currently, Cattaraugus creek is flowing at about 370 cubic feet oke per second and slowly rising. The creek should remain at cor- fishable levels all weekend, ght although visibility may be ive poor. To this point, Cattaraugus Creek has been the top steelhead stream, with good en catches up to at least Gowannd da and many fish over the two 6-5 foot mark. Previously, all of the other Lake Erie tributaries ree were very low and clear, with few steelhead around and even less caught. d Those creeks received a good to shot of runoff overnight. All ter, water levels are up and many are running muddy today. er ks of ri ster Stauffer (pictured) also wrapped up the fall in fine er, fashion, firing the lowest f round of his collegiate career r- and collecting his sixth top-15 eft finish in as many tournaments this season. Behind Tuesday's 70, the freshman registered a 2-over 218 for the tournament and finished in a tie for 15th

This should deepen stream mouths, draw steelhead in and expand fishing opportunities in the region. Lake Erie steelhead commonly hit natural baits like egg sacs and worms, flies such as egg imitations, streamers and bugger patterns, and lures like minnow-type stickbaits and in-line spinners. Anglers can also target steelhead from the Cattaraugus Creek breakwall or off creek mouths by casting spoons, spinners and stickbaits. A break in the weather on Wednesday allowed yellow perch anglers to get out on the lake and the perch bite was good between Cattaraugus Creek and Sturgeon Point. Best catches came from 5060 feet of water, but anglers reported steady action in as shallow as 30 feet of water. Emerald shiners are top perch bait, however salted shiners and worms also worked well.
Randolph Fish Hatchery has completed their annual fall stocking of broodstock trout in Cattaraugus and Allegany Counties. All breeder trout stocked are over 2 years old and are stocked in waters where trout fishing is permitted year-round. The following waters have been stocked with surplus broodstock trout: New Albion Lake, Case Lake, Harwood Lake, Quaker
Lake, Red House Lake, Allen Lake, Birch Run Pond and the Genesee River (from Wellsville to PA border). If you need more fishing information or would like to contribute to the fishing report, please call or e-mail Mike Todd (716-851-7010; mttodd@gw.dec.state.ny.us) or Jim Markham (716-366-0228; jlmarkha@gw.dec.state.ny.us). The fishing hotline can also be heard at (716) 679-ERIE or (716) 855-FISH. 2012-2013 Freshwater Fishing Licenses can be purchased at all DEC regional offices and license issuing agents including many town clerk offices, sporting good stores and bait & tackle shops.

Licenses can also be purchased by phone at 1-86-NYDECALS (1-866-933-2257).
senior Greg Horvath made improvements throughout the tournament, culminating in a final-round 75. Horvath improved from 90 to 77 from the first round to the second round and finished in a tie for 87th with a 242 total. Stauffer's previous low round at SBU was 72, which he re-
corded six times this fall. The 70 allowed the Bradford, Pa., native to move up five spots — from tied for 20th to tied for 15th — over the course of the final round. Stauffer and McKenna each produced five birdies on Tuesday, while Horvath added three. Stauffer led the
Bonnies with 13 birdies for the tournament. Behind co-medalist Scott Wolfes, Georgia Southern posted an 854 and won the tournament by 12 strokes over Richmond. Wolfes and fellow champion, Weston Eklund of Radford, each shot 9-under 207 for the tournament.
Acquired July 27 from the division rival Colorado Rockies, Scutaro hit .500 (14 for 28) with four RBIs in the NLCS. The 36-year-old journeyman infielder, playing in his second postseason and first since 2006 with Oakland, became the first player in major league history with six multihit games in an LCS. Now, he's headed to his first World Series. The Giants have All-Star game MVP Melky Cabrera to thank for helping his teammates secure home-field advantage in the postseason — while Cain was the winning pitcher the National League's 8-0 victory in July. Cabrera was suspended 50 games Aug. 15 for a positive testosterone test, then wasn't added to the roster by the Giants after his suspension ended. After rain fell on the Cardi-
nals during batting practice, the skies turned blue and the weather cooperated. Anxious players on both sides hung over the dugout rails as the game began. Cain joined St. Louis' Chris Carpenter as the only pitchers with victories in two winnertake-all games in the same postseason. Carpenter, who lost Games 2 and 6 in this series, did it last year. Cain also pitched the Giants' Game 5 division series clincher at Cincinnati, when San Francisco became the first team in major league history to come back from an 0-2 deficit in a five-game series by winning three consecutive road games. ''I think to do it, the guys actually have to believe it can happen,'' Posey said. He delivered on an even big-
ger stage Monday as San Francisco saved its season once again. The Giants won their 20th NL pennant and reached their 19th World Series. Cain walked off the mound to a standing ovation when Jeremy Affeldt entered with two outs in the sixth. Affeldt then got Daniel Descalso to pop out with two runners on. Yadier Molina had four hits but got little help from the rest of the Cardinals, who went 1 for 21 with runners in scoring position over their final three games. ''It's about the team that's hot, and we went on a cold streak,'' Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said. ''We got to this point by being that team that was hot and taking advantage of opportunities. But we just couldn't make it happen these last two games.''
crayfish, tube jigs or plastics. Drifting with large 8-10 inch tube jigs or casting large stickbaits are good bets for muskellunge around Strawberry Island and near the Huntley power station. Live bait has produced catches of bass and panfish at Broderick Park and the north end of Squaw Island. Often in fall, shore anglers at these sites also catch some rainbow trout on egg sacs, spoons and spinners.

Chautauqua Lake
Fall is a good time to target muskellunge on Chautauqua Lake. Some musky anglers troll or cast large stickbaits (5-8 inch) along weed edges in 10-16 feet of water, while others target suspended musky 20-25 feet down over 30-35 feet of water. Fishing with tube jigs, plastics,
crankbaits or live bait (golden shiners, leeches, crayfish) near weed edges are good bets for hungry bass.

ST. BONAVENTURE GOLF TEAMS FINISH STRONG continued from pg 3 out of 94 competitors. Brian McKenna also finished strong for the Bonnies, backing up his second-round 71 with an even-par 72 on Tuesday. The senior carded a 222 for the tournament and tied for 27th. Darren Simons came in as
SBU's third finisher. The redshirt freshman posted a 77 in the final round and 234 for the tournament, which resulted in a tie for 60th. Fellow freshman Patrick Milkovich added a 79 on Tuesday and finished at 238, which was good for a tie for 76th. Like the Bonaventure team,

player, said on Twitter: ''Marty son wasn't the reason we are losing! ... Unbelievable!'' of ess Carolina's last playoff victory came in 2005 when it reached the NFC championship game ers before losing at Seattle. The Panthers appeared to turn n things around in 2008 when they won the NFC South and earned a first-round bye of- before getting upset 33-13 at nd home by the Arizona Cardi% nals. They haven't been back on to the playoffs since. are Hurney's philosophy has been to build through the draft and re-sign proven players rather y than going after high-priced free agents. But the team wasted a number of high draft be picks through the years. The personnel blunder fans led. that angered fans most was giving 34-year-old quarterback Jake Delhomme a fivehe year, $42.5 million contract is months after he turned over d the ball over six times in the l playoff loss to Arizona. ail
Delhomme started 2009 with a five-turnover game against Philadelphia and was cut after the season. Delhomme cost the Panthers $12 million under the salary cap in 2009 even though he was no longer on the roster. Eric Shelton, Dwayne Jarrett, Jimmy Clausen and Everette Brown were all drafted in the second round, but failed to meet expectations. Brown, in particular, was a costly choice in 2009 because the Panthers gave up their firstround pick the following year to San Francisco to get him. Brown lasted only two seasons in Carolina. Hurney also was criticized for giving big contracts to keep the team's core intact following a 2-14 season in 2010. He gave Johnson, who has never been to a Pro Bowl, a deal worth $72 million and also handed out a five-year, $43 million contract with $21 million in guaranteed money
to running back DeAngelo Williams. Williams hasn't done much since and serves as a part-time player. Hurney also cut kicker John Kasay and signed Olindo Mare to a four-year, $12 million deal that included a $4 million signing bonus. Mare lasted one season. He did well with first-round draft picks Jordan Gross, Jon Beason, Jonathan Stewart, Chris Gamble and Newton, last year's No. 1 overall pick. Denver Broncos coach John Fox, who worked with Hurney for nine years in Carolina before being replaced by Ron Rivera after the 2010 season, called the news ''unfortunate.'' ''It's a tough business and we had some good moments, some very good moments, there,'' Fox said. ''We went to a Super Bowl. We were in a couple of championship games. ... I'm sure he'll do fine moving forward.''
BLUE DEVILS FINISH IN THIRD continued from pg 7
he A second defensive ing miscue — a ball off m. the foot of a Blue Devil defender — led to the own goal and a 2-1 lead for the Hawks at 34:25. The goals were the first two allowed by Meszaros and the Blue Devils after three straight shutouts. Following intermission, Putzig evened the score at 58:56 when she received a pass over the top of the defense and struck a left-footer from the 18-yard line into the top right corner. It was Putzig's sixth goal of the season, the second in two days, and the third in the last four games. Maria Green set up gamewinning goal. Her pass in the midfield was delivered to Condidorio in the center of the field, whose hard shot from 30
yards out skipped once off the wet grass, and then off Vega's hands, into the net. Condidorio had a chance to add to the lead — and to her school-record career totals of 42 goals and 101 points — when Blue Devils were awarded a penalty kick with just under 15 minutes left. Her low shot beat Vega yet deflected off the left post and slid out of play. Meszaros protected the lead twice in the final three min-
utes. First, she came far off her line to stop a hard-charging run by New Paltz's Shelby Kondelka. With less than a minute to go, Meszaros came off his line a second time to stop a shot by Sarah Painter from close range. Painter gathered the rebound but her second shot was blocked by a Blue Devil defender. Time ran out just as New Paltz took its last of seven corner kicks. The Blue Devils took no corner kicks in the game, yet outshot the Hawks 16-12. Senior Day festivities were held prior to the game. Brown, Meszaros, and Condidorio were recognized during an on-field ceremony. The Blue Devils closed out the regular season with a home game Tuesday vs. Rochester Institute of Technology.
WORLD SERIES: GIANTS VS TIGERS continued from pg 4
LATE RALLY TOO MUCH FOR BILLS continued from pg 9 Their defense still can't stop the run. In allowing the Titans 197 yards rushing, the Bills have now given up 182 or more yards on the ground in each of their past four games — including 311 in a 45-3 loss at San Francisco two weeks ago. And quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick continues to raise questions about his inconsistencies. Though he finished 27 of 35 for 225 and three scores, he had two costly turnovers that led to Titans touchdowns. That included his ill-advised pass on third-and-6 that was intercepted by Jason McCourty at midfield with 2:57 to set up the decisive score. Fitzpatrick blamed himself. ''I got greedy in a situation where I didn't have any business being greedy in,'' Fitzpatrick said, referring to his attempt to force a pass to Donald Jones at the right sideline. ''It was a dumb throw and dumb decision by me. Third down, and game on the line, (coach) Chan (Gailey) put the ball in my hands, and
I throw an interception. That one hurts.'' Gailey refused to pin all the blame on his quarterback. ''He had a bad throw at the end. Other than that, he played really, really well,'' Gailey said. ''If you get rid of all the quarterbacks for one bad throw, you're not going to have any quarterbacks left.'' The trouble is, Fitzpatrick's had more than one bad throw this season. In Buffalo's four losses, he's thrown 10 touchdowns, nine interceptions and lost one fumble. In Buffalo's three wins, Fitzpatrick has five touchdowns, no interceptions and one lost fumble. And the Bills offense couldn't even produce a first down on its last possession, which ended with Fitzpatrick throwing behind Stevie Johnson on fourth-and-2. Johnson scored on a 27-yard touchdown catch that put the Bills ahead 34-28 with 5 seconds left in the third quarter. Jones scored on a 15-yard reception and Fred Jackson
finished with 71 yards rushing and scored on a 3-yard pass. Brad Smith also scored on an 89-yard kickoff return that came during the stretch in which the teams combined for 21 points on two plays from scrimmage, and 30 seconds running off the clock. It was the fastest three-score span since the Raiders and Patriots scored three times in 26 seconds on Dec. 14, 2008, according to STATS LLC. Hasselbeck finished 22 of 33 for 205 yards and a score, while Jamie Harper scored twice on 1-yard plunges. Coach Mike Munchak was impressed with how his team continues to show perseverance and an ability to win close games. Tennessee's three wins have been decided by a combined 7 points. ''At the end, when we had to find a way to win it, all the phases came together,'' Munchak said. ''You see them believing in each other. If we're in the game, we're going to find a way to win it.''
