CHAUTAUQUA STAR FRIDAY, OCTOBER 25, 2013
As I write this, my facebook is being inundated with posts about the first snow fall of the season. This year, as I’ve announced to most of those dearest to me, I’ve turned over a new leaf with regards to the fluffy white stuff. After some significant weight loss, I’ve apparently lost my ability to maintain self-warmth. As such, the end of last winter was incredibly chilly for me; a situation I’d never found myself in before. All that to say this- while I find that the snow is indeed beautiful, I’m slowly changing my tastes to prefer that of a crisp fall day, hovering around 60˚ as opposed to my previous tastes of 25˚. But, winter is coming and there’s nothing we can do about it. And in the words of a minister that I once heard, “you’d better get happy quick.” So what can we do to fight the winter duldrums? How can we fight the reputation that we have amongst southerners
as uptight, depressed and freezing? Easy- find stuff to do inside. Watch a movie with your family. I’m not an advocate of living in front of the television, but I do think that there’s much to be said to its ability to bring a family together (even if they aren’t actually interacting). My wife and I differ on this, and that’s okay. I consider it to be quality time spent with my boy when we snuggle up under a warm blanket and watch Superman stop the bad guy. Mainly because afterward, naturally, he dons his Superman cape and begins to fly around the house, saving all his toys. We don’t need to spend every waking moment in front of the television, and it certainly should not replace loving interaction, but there’s something about a cup of hot cocoa and a movie that makes the inside feel that much warmer. go shopping Really, this is a test to see if my wife is reading my commentaries. If she sees this, it’ll be about thirty seconds before I get a call or text saying that I gave her permission for us to go to TJ Maxx (one of my exercises in love toward her). But in all seriousness, we’re not only supporting the local economy but managing to stay warm at the same time. I may have come around on the cold weather side of things, but I don’t think anything will take away my love for driving in the snow.
It’s a free thrill ride, in my opinion. Free being purely objective here, since obviously driving is far from free these days. Play a game Before we had kids, my wife and I found great joy in a game of scrabble every now and then. Sure, now the toddler thinks the letters are pellets created for chucking at his infant brother, but there are plenty of games that the whole family can play togetherand games that don’t cost a lot of money, or barely any at all. My wife amazes me with the hobbies and crafts that she finds to entertain our kids with, all of which barely touch the monthly expenses. Read a book Sure this is a given (most of the stuff on this list probably is), but there’s no reason that we can’t mention it anyways. Leaders are readers, and if you can get the few moments of quiet time to bury yourself in a good book, do it. Personally, I’m an advocate of non-fiction. I read about a study that reported most successful entrepreneurs read at least one non-fiction book a month. I’ve got plenty of my own imagination, and don’t find that I need to have anyone else take the time to fi ll it. If I can read something that will better my person, then that’s where my time will go. So, while the snow is blowing and the mercury is dropping lower, remember that you can still stay warm inside this winter!

City’s 67th Historical marker unveiled
City Historian B. Dolores Thompson and Mayor Samuel Teresi
Contributed Article City of Jamestown
The Jamestown Historical Marker Committee, chaired by City Historian B. Dolores Thompson, dedicated the City’s 67th historical marker next to the Lucille Ball Little Theatre building at 18 East Second Street. The marker honors the Chautauqua County Political Equality Club. The organization promoted women’s right to vote during the suffrage movement, marking the 125th anniversary of its organization. The late 1800s marked a surge in the efforts to secure the right to vote for women. Since the inception of the United States and its Constitution, women were considered citizens and were required to pay taxes. However, they had no vote in the government to which they paid those taxes and no voice in any of the laws enacted that they were expected to honor. Efforts to secure the right to vote began in June 1848

at the celebrated Seneca Falls, NY, Convention. By the 1880s, efforts were in full swing throughout the country. Small groups sprang up in many small local communities, including in all of Chautauqua County. On October 31, 1888, the Jamestown group hosted a meeting of all the various County groups at Allen’s Opera House (now Little Theatre). They decided to organize as a county organization, which was a first in New York State. With over 1,000 members by 1891, it was the largest county suffrage organization in the United States. Women were finally formally granted the right to vote on August 26, 1920, through the 19th Amendment to the Constitution. Congress had passed the Amendment in June 1919, but the required state ratifications were not reached until the following August. In November, women voted for the President of the United States for the first time in the country’s 144year history. Committee members assisting Ms. Thompson in the marker program are Clair Carlson, Traci Langworthy, Karen Livsey, and Arthur Osterdahl.

RELIGION SECTION Keeping the Faith
Rev. Michael Lokietek Family Church Fredonia fcfredonia.org
dear Pastor, does god care about material things? During this latest series, we have been exploring a topic that has been highly misunderstood. Jesus said in John 8:32 that when we know the truth, the truth will make us free. It’s my prayer therefore, that these teachings help to free you concerning material possessions. I want you to know that I love the Lord and am fully and sincerely committed to seeking His truth for my life, family, and for those who read this column. If I believed that God wanted us to be poor‌I would strive to be
as poor as I could be. I only want to live an obedient and sanctified life for Him. While this particular topic can be a challenge for many Christians, I believe that the Word clearly indicates God’s desire for us to be fully provided for so that we are useful to Him and His plan of salvation. Today I want to show you that the Bible considers poverty a curse and provision and prosperity are considered to be blessings. Let’s look at Deuteronomy chapter 28 (verses 1-2). These verses read: “And it shall come to pass, if you diligently obey the voice of the LORD your
God, to observe carefully all His commandments which I command you today, that the LORD your God will set you high above all nations of the earth: (2) And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, because you obey the voice of the LORD your God.� Here God reveals that His reward for obeying Him is that you will be overwhelmingly blessed! While space doesn’t permit me to list all of these blessings (28:3-14), some of these blessings pertain to material wealth. This is God’s promise to His children. In contrast, Deuteronomy 28:15
says: “But it shall come to pass, if you do not obey the voice of the LORD your God, to observe carefully all His commandments and his statutes which I command you today; that all these curses shall come upon you and overtake you.� Verses 16-68 clearly define these curses including several references to poverty and lack. There is a clear indication of God’s blessings for those who seek Him and that poverty and lack are not His desire. According to the Word, God send His Son to free us from any curse in our lives (Galatians 3:13)?
the weekly word
Rev. Tim Stahlman Family Church Jamestown fcjamestown.org
The matchless name of Jesus Has ever a name existed that has provoked so many thoughts as this Name? To the forgiven, this Name is the refuge from a guilty conscience. For the wicked, this Name questions the intelligence of gambling eternity and makes for uneasiness. For the saved, this Name is a sweet pardon and commission to redeem a hurting world. To the faithful, the Name above every name grants access to the Throne of Grace to obtain mercy and find help in this very present time of need. Some hold fast the Name; others mock in bitter contempt. Believers sing the Name; the hard in heart gnash their teeth at the sound of it. The Name of Jesus puts every heart on trial.
Acts 4:12 says, “Neither is there salvation in any other (name); for there is none other Name under Heaven given to men WHEREBY WE MUST BE SAVED.� The Name of Jesus has received the greatest audience in all Heaven. So much that sinners are granted a hearing by approaching in that Name. Without that Name the ears of God are closed to the requests of depraved humanity. Sinners are turned away until that beautiful Name is breathed. Romans 10:13, “For whosoever calls upon the Name of the Lord shall be saved.� Now a once shut out sinner receives full pardon and citizen rights because that Name was mingled with faith words. The Name of Jesus upon the lips of the most wretched sinner can arrest the attention of
the Heavenly Father. We need not look any further than the Name of Jesus. In Acts chapter 3, the Apostle Peter taps into a great reserve of power stored in the Name. Peter and John happen upon a man crippled from birth begging for alms beside a gate of the Temple called Beautiful. This man is destitute. There is no known cure for his condition and had there been he could not afford it. This man had reached the lowest strata of society. When he saw Peter and John he thought surely he would receive money. But what he received was a powerful introduction to the Name of Jesus. Peter simply set his eyes upon the man in Acts 3:6 and said, â€œâ€ŚIn the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth,
rise and walk.� Peter didn’t wait for the man to receive a doubting thought so he grabbed the man and hoisted him to his feet. The man not only walked but he began to leap. The Name recreated bones and energized tendons. The Name didn’t leave the man even to a limp. He was restored to enjoy life again, to find an honest living, and to begin a testimony of worshipping at the Temple instead of begging at its gates. This man’s destiny was overturned by this Mighty Name in the voice of a believing one. This Name is still overturning destinies today. Salvation is found in the Name. Healing is contained in every syllable. What does your heart believe about the Name of Jesus?

Retirement Readiness Checklist for savers Statepoint
Today, four out of five Americans are optimistic about their financial future, and of those who own retirement products, 97 percent agree that it feels good to know they are saving, according to a recent Lincoln Financial Group M.O.O.D. of America Study. “One of the easiest ways people have to save for retirement is through their employer-sponsored retirement plan, like a 401(k) or 403(b) plan,â€? says Chuck Cornelio, president of Retirement Plan Services for Lincoln Financial Group. “It is critical that people receive the motivation and support they need to help them get on track and stay on track with their retirement savings goals.â€? Here are some simple ways to help you with retirement readiness: • Sign up for a savings plan at work: If you’re not enrolled in your plan, enroll today. Participation in an employer-sponsored retirement plan can help reduce
your taxable income while building your savings. Contact your benefits administrator or human resources department with questions on how to get started. Enrollment can be the first step toward considering your own retirement savings goals and setting yourself up for a greater chance at success. • Resist the temptation to borrow: We all know that things come up and that in the middle of an unexpected event, you may be tempted to borrow against your retirement plan savings. This is especially true during a down market. Resist the temptation. When you borrow against your plan, you may miss out on potential market gains.
• Save more as you make more: There are probably times in your life when you may receive extra cash from a tax refund, a bonus, a salary increase or some other pleasant surprise. Consider increasing your contribution every year if it’s possible and saving any extras. When you hit the maximum contribution level in your plan, a financial professional can help you find the right place to put additional savings. • Save at least up to the company match: Many employers will match your contributions up to a certain percentage. Take advantage of these offers. Talk with your benefits administrator to learn more about
what’s available in your plan. When you don’t take full advantage of a company match, you’re leaving money on the table. • Review investments with a financial professional: Schedule a retirement plan check-up at least once a year
to assess where you stand against your personal retirement savings goals. It can help you stay on track and identify any changes that need to be made in order to achieve your savings goals. “When it comes to saving for your retirement, don’t
hesitate,� says Cornelio. “The sooner you start saving your money in an employer-sponsored plan or other retirement account, the better.� For more tips and retirement resources, visit www. lincolnfinancial.com.

Children’s Concerts series
5
EIGHTH SEASON CONTINUES WITH BASSOON QUARTET ON SATURDAY, NOV. 2 performances (one at 10:30 a.m. and one at 11:30 am). The next concert will be held on Saturday, Nov. 2 in the Dunkirk Free Library, The Musical Journeys 536 Central Avenue in Program of the Fredonia Dunkirk. School of Music kicks off its eighth season of free concerts Planned with the help of SUNY Fredonia faculty designed to appeal to very who are experts in music young children. Selected and education, the concerts student ensembles from the are designed to introduce Fredonia School of Muvery young audiences (from sic will perform half-hour Children’s Concerts on four infants to 6-year-olds) to Saturday mornings with two musical instruments. In this child-friendly environment,
performers will invite the children to sit on the floor close to the musicians; family members are encouraged to bring blankets or carpet squares to sit on. Strollers can be parked around the edges of the seating area. “It’s wonderful to see the musical relationship between the children and the college student performers develop as the concert progresses. The musicians are sharing music they love, and the children certainly respond to
that,” said Sarah Hamilton, associate professor of oboe and co-organizer. A bassoon quartet will perform at the Nov. 2 concert. The musicians are Fredonia School of Music students Jacqueline Ellmauer (Youngsville, NY), Erin Haynes (Buffalo, NY), Leah Cripps (Central Square, NY), and Marisa Esposito (Massapequa Park, NY). “The Children’s Concerts are enjoyable, child-appro-
priate opportunities for very young children to interact with music and musicians. For the young audience and the performers, music becomes a playmate to join in a thrilling adventure,” said Jill Reese, assistant professor of music and coorganizer at the Fredonia School of Music. “During these events, learning and teaching among the children and the student musicians is mutual: children learn about music through moving,
listening, and creating, and our student musicians learn to engage young imaginations and ignite new musical passions!” The Children’s Concert Series is part of the Musical Journeys Program, a community outreach project offered by the Fredonia School of Music.

WOMEN’S SECTION Women: Could Your Pain be Fibromyalgia? Contributed Article Statepoint
With its confusing overlap of symptoms, fibromyalgia syndrome (FM) can be a nightmare for the five million Americans -- 90 percent of them women -who suffer from it. Although the set of symptoms will vary from patient to patient, having two or more of the most common symptoms might justify a trip to your doctor to get checked out and learn more about the condition. If you’re among those who
have FM, or suspect you might be among them, then getting accurate information is the first step toward an effective course of treatment. “Don’t be afraid to speak up -- your symptoms may not be a coincidence,” says Dr. Seth Lederman, physician and CEO of Tonix Pharmaceuticals, a company developing treatments for FM pain. Here are five basic questions to ask your doctor to get a firm grip on understanding your FM: • What is FM? Your doctor will explain how FM en-
compasses a range of symptoms that can include pain all over your body, sleep problems, fatigue, memory problems, (“fibro-fog”) and many others. Additionally, common FM symptoms may encompass recurrent headaches, tingling and digestive problems. • Can exercise offer pain relief? It seems like a contradiction, but some research suggests that hitting the gym and getting regular exercise may produce relief from FM pain. Your doctor may say it is okay to exercise through your “normal” pain levels, but if
exercise causes the pain to worsen significantly, back off. • How can I sleep better? Your doctor will likely explain what you might already suspect: Sleep quality plays a major role in the severity of FM symptoms. Many FM patients report a lack of restful sleep. Studies have shown this is due to increased brain vigilance at the time when the deepest sleep cycle should be occurring. With an eye on helping FM patients with sleep problems, New York-based Tonix Pharmaceuticals
is reformulating an existing muscle relaxant called cyclobenzaprine into a low-dose under-the-tongue tablet taken at bedtime. Tonix is testing its drug in a study this year. Ask your doctor about participating in the clinical trial called BESTFIT. For more information, visit www.TonixPharma.com. • Where does my pain originate? Although in a prior era FM patients came under the care of rheumatologists, this view has since evolved. Your doctor will tell you that FM is a disorder of the central nervous
system. • Can my diet help my symptoms? No diet, no matter how well planned, will “cure” fibromyalgia. But your doctor may point out that a diet rich in antioxidants (e.g., full of fruits and vegetables) can help maximize health by minimizing the level of oxidative stress that can occur in the body’s tissues. For more information, visit www.TonixPharma.com. Don’t grin and bear signs of FM. Schedule a doctor’s visit to determine the cause of your symptoms.

Zombie princess. If you are celebrating Halloween with a group of people, consider going with a costume theme that everyone can take part in such as the popular Scooby and the Gang theme or the crew from Star Trek. Others may choose to dress up in matching costumes with their spouse, boyfriend, kids or even the family dog. Before making that final costume decision, make sure that your final choice
is age and event appropriate. Wearing a sexy French maid costume to the office Halloween party is probably not the wisest decision, nor is showing too much cleavage with your scary wench costume at the school’s trick or treating event. Save the sexy costume for a night out with the boyfriend and the serial killer outfit for a costume contest instead of the neighbor kid’s Halloween party. Also try to avoid selecting
a costume that could be offensive to anyone such as religious themed, ethnic based or controversial/ moral in nature. Whichever costume you decide on for your Halloween event(s), be creative, make it fun and let your alter ego enjoy an uninhibited night at least once a year, on the night of the Hallowed Eve.

This week:
FALL FUN FOR THE HALLOWEEN-LESS FAMILY By Katy Wise Contributing Writer
The beginning of cold weather and leaves falling from tree branches is also the beginning of fall festivities. Around this beautiful time of year, my personal favorite, many families start looking for costumes, planning apple picking adventures, and ask their children what they’re going to carve into their pumpkin this year. I am not trying to sway anyone’s opinion on the topic of celebrating Halloween. Whether or not you and your family make the decision to partake in traditional Halloween festivities is ultimately up to you and what your family believes in. There are so many different activities during this fall season that you don’t need to celebrate this particular holiday in order to have fun. While discussing this topic with a dear friend of mine, she made the point that every holiday is what you make of it, just like every situation. Although the origins of Halloween seem to be debated amongst different sources, the same is true of Christmas and Easter. The things that we find ourselves doing in the name of a celebration often have nothing to do with the days’ original purpose. Things can become ‘Americanized’ or ‘Christianized’ or really, whatever someone feels like saying they are. My point is that everything is what you make of it. Don’t like Halloween? Then by all means, don’t feel pressured to be a part of it just because others do! Your kids will not grow up feeling like they missed out on something,
unless you make them miss out on fun. Personally, our family has made the decision not to participate. There are many reasons behind our agreement, one of the deciding factors being that Halloween can be downright scary. As a kid I also ‘trick-or-treated’, and I loved dressing up. In fact, I still think costume parties are tremendous fun. However, it seems to me that parties have gotten scarier and scarier, and I just don’t get the appeal of terrifying adults, let alone children. I just wonder how child friendly Halloween really is? Every family will have different rules for their children, and standards by which they raise them. What is okay for one person, may not work for another. Just like disciplining your children, you will need to follow your heart to know what is right for yourself and your kids. Realizing that we are the minority on this topic, I would like to suggest some fun alternatives for fellow ‘non-halloweenies’, or those who just want to have more fun! Apple picking, pumpkin painting, corn mazes, hayrides and costume parties are all fun that can be had without ties to a specific holiday. A costume party is fun at any time of the year, and is an excellent opportunity to be creative and get together with friends or family. A personal favorite of mine is gourd bowling. Find a round pumpkin, some gourds, and set up your own little bowling alley. You can later use the gourds for a game of ring toss, just borrow some rings from an outdoor game, or make your own with rope and/or duct
tape. Guessing how many pieces of candy corn are in a mason jar is fun and relatively inexpensive, as is tying donuts onto a string dangling from the ceiling and competing to see who can consume that donut the fastest (or at all). Bobbing for apples, while messy, is also fun, although some may agree it’s more fun as a spectator sport. Piñatas are not just for birthday parties, and jumping or tossing leaves in the air is fun no matter what age your driver’s license states. Those giant pumpkin marshmallows you see in Wal-mart are good for more than just hot cocoa. Take some toothpicks, and build a pumpkin tower, or just stack them to see how sturdy they are. Along with all of these ideas, there are oodles of fun recipes and crafts out there. Dipping leaves and acorns from the yard or an apple cut in half in paint, children can create a masterpiece that will be saved for years to come. Using the original rice krispie treat recipe, with a little orange food coloring and some green gum drops, you can mold sweet little pumpkins. Decorating cookies shaped like pumpkins, leaves, acorns or candy corn is good entertainment, or if you want something heathy, you can create pumpkins of any size from clementines, oranges, or a bell pepper. Whatever you decide to have fun with, I would love to hear about it! Let me know if you have any other ideas for fall fun, or if you try the following and have a blast doing it. Email me at katy.wise@ star-mediagroup.com, and thanks for reading!

opera House Cinema series to screen Lee Daniel’s “the Butler”
Contributed Article 1891 Fredonia Opera House
Lee Daniels’ “The Butler,” starring Forest Whitaker and Oprah Winfrey, is the next featured fi lm in the Fredonia Opera House Cinema Series. It will be screened on Sat., Oct. 26, and Tues., Oct. 29, at 7:30 p.m. Inspired by a true story, “The Butler” tells the story of a White House butler who served seven American presidents over three decades. The fi lm traces the dramatic changes that swept American society during this time, from the civil rights movement to Vietnam and beyond, and how those changes affected this man’s life and family. Forest Whitaker stars as the butler with Robin Williams as Dwight Eisenhower, James Marsden as John F. Kennedy, Liev Schreiber as Lyndon B. Johnson, John Cusack as Richard Nixon and Alan Rickman as Ronald Reagan. The fi lm also stars Jane Fonda, Vanessa Redgrave, Cuba Gooding, Jr., Lenny Kravitz and Mariah Carey. A.O. Scott, in the New York Times, calls the fi lm “a brilliantly truthful fi lm on a subject that is usually shrouded in wishful thinking, myth-mongering and outright denial.” Claudia Puig, in USA Today, calls it “deeply affecting.” Steven Rea, in the Philadelphia Inquirer, calls it “an inspiring and important summation of the black struggle.” Tom Long, in the Detroit News, says the fi lm “mixes
big issues and big people and real human life with surprising grace.” Rated PG-13 for some violence and disturbing images, language, sexual material, thematic elements and smoking, “The Butler” runs 132 minutes. The Opera House Cinema Series is sponsored by Lake Shore Savings Bank. Tickets are available at the door for $7 (adults), $6.50 (seniors & Opera House members) and $5 (students) the night of each screening. A book of ten movie passes is available for $60 at the door or online at www.fredopera.org. For more information, call the
Opera House Box Office at 716-679-1891. The Series continues with “Rush,” the biopic on 1970s Formula One driver James Hunt, on Nov. 2 & 5; Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s directorial debut “Don Jon” on Nov. 9 & 12; and James Gandolfini’s final fi lm, “Enough Said,” on Nov. 23 and 26. Chautauqua County’s only performing arts center presenting its own programming year-round, the 1891 Fredonia Opera House is a member-supported not-forprofit organization located in Village Hall in downtown Fredonia.

The Met was the first arts company to experiment with this type of broadcast, beginning on a modest scale in 2006 and growing every season since then, with more than 10 million tickets sold to date. Met opera stars serve as hosts for the series, conducting live interviews with cast members, crew and production teams, and
introducing the popular behind-the-scenes features; altogether the worldwide audience is given an unprecedented look at what goes into the staging of an opera at one of the world’s great houses. Critically acclaimed and sold-out at the Met in 2010, William Kentridge’s dazzlingly innovative production of Shostakovich’s shocking, unconventional opera about a beleaguered Russian official and his runaway nose, The Nose makes a much anticipated return to the Met.

THE NOSE, CONTINUED FROM PG 8 stars Tony Award-winner (South Pacific) Szot as Kovalyov, a hapless bureaucrat who awakes one morning to discover that his nose has run away. Andrey Popov is the menacing Police Inspector and Alexander Lewis makes his Met role debut as Kovalyov’s peripatetic nose. Russian Conductor Pavel Smelkov leads the Met orchestra. The opera runs 1 hour, 50 minutes without intermission. The Wall Street Journal calls the production “a wildly colorful and imaginative staging, a non-stop hour-and-a-half of ingenious, delirious mayhem.” The New York Times adds “with unflagging energy and unfettered imagination, it
powerfully seconds both the irreverent zaniness of the Gogol story on which the opera is based and the teeming exuberance of Shostakovich’s music.” The Times also says “Szot brings a certain stature, vocal as well as physical, and considerable vulnerability to his winning characterization.” Individual tickets to each of the operas in the season are $20, ($18 Opera House members, $15 students). The Opera House also offers a flexible subscription consisting of eight tickets that can be used however the patron wants – one at a time to eight different operas, all at once for eight people, or anything in between. It is $142.
Tickets may be purchased in person at the Opera House Box Office or by phone at 716-679-1891, Tuesday-Friday, 1-5 p.m. Tickets may be purchased online anytime at www.fredopera.org. The remaining 2013-14 Live at the Met season operas include: Puccini’s Tosca on Nov. 9; Verdi’s Falstaff on Dec. 14; Dvorák’s Rusalka on Feb.8; Borodin’s Prince Igor on Mar. 1; Massenet’s Werther on Mar. 15; Puccini’s La Bohème on Apr. 5; Mozart’s Cosi fan tutte on Apr. 26; and Rossini’s La Cenerentola on May 10.

tRC Corporate College Graduates six Contributed Article JCC
Through teamwork and a strong desire to further their education to become better employees, six staff members of The Resource Center became the second graduating class of TRC’s Corporate College. A ceremony was held recently at Jamestown Community College to honor those graduates for their accomplishment. The event was attended by staff from TRC and JCC, as well as the graduates’ family and friends. TRC Corporate College is a collaboration between The Resource Center and JCC that gives TRC employees the opportunity to enhance their personal and professional lives. Begun in fall 2010, TRC Corporate College promotes educational opportunities that can benefit employees and, ultimately, The Resource Center through enhanced employee skills. Participants attend classes on their own time during JCC’s spring and fall semesters and summer sessions. Prior to enrollment, participants take placement tests to determine math, reading and writing levels. The class topics chosen are pertinent to The Resource Center’s mission. TRC is an employee-centered company with a long history of encouraging employees to move forward within the organization and to further their education with the goal of receiving a degree. The first TRC Corporate College class graduated in fall 2012.
The members of the second graduating class were Susanne Allenbrand, licensed practical nurse; Debra Berdine, residence manager; Robin Kestler, activity leader; Mary Peters, residence manager; Peggy Stingel, direct support professional; and Gwen Syper, accounts payable clerk. During the graduation ceremony, JCC president Cory Duckworth congratulated the six employees on completing their coursework. “I hope you feel a sense of great accomplishment in what you’ve achieved,” Dr. Duckworth told the graduates, sharing a quote from American philosopher and educator John Dewey: “Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself.” Dr. Duckworth noted that the Corporate College concept is designed to be closely connected and intertwined with the community. “I am just really quite impressed with the Corporate College that’s been arranged with The Resource Center,” he said. “I congratulate The Resource Center for the energy and effort you put into this.” Sharing that his mother had worked for an organization that supported students with disabilities in learning the food service industry, he told the graduates that he has a deep appreciation for people who work with individuals with special needs. “I think what you do is really fabulous,” he said. “Everyone needs to have someone who cares about them. You’re the ones who do that.” In his remarks, TRC executive director Paul Cesana

noted that undertaking Corporate College required a significant commitment from the graduates, given the fact they had to work in classes around their work and family lives. Corporate College, he added, is “an exemplary model of how continuing education can promote continued personal growth and advancement opportunities at work.” “I’m sure we’ll appreciate the fruits of your commitment and extra learning,” he said. Marilyn Zagora, JCC’s vice president and dean of academic affairs, told the graduates they had “taken a giant step toward applying your potential.” “You are to be applauded for taking the risk of trying new things,” she said. Dr. Zagora added that the partnership between JCC and TRC represents the concepts of innovation, collaboration, and entrepreneurial spirit. “The important thing is this: to be able at any moment to sacrifice what

you are for what you could become.” James Chimenti, a JCC business professor who is one of the Corporate College instructors, congratulated the graduates on their accomplishment and thanked them for always being well prepared, eager to learn, and doing the work. “That makes my job easy,” he said. “You folks really put in the time and the effort.” Chimenti added that by serving on TRC’s board of directors for 21 years, he has a good appreciation of the commitment of agency and its workforce to improve the lives of people with disabilities. “It makes me grateful that there are people like you to do that,” he said. Delana Rupp, assistant director of JCC’s Center for Continuing Education, thanked the Corporate College instructors for their contribution to the program’s success. She also thanked TRC’s administration and the graduates
for their commitment to Corporate College. “We couldn’t make this program possible without you,” she said. “You are what really make this program count.” Rather than give individual speeches upon receiving their certificates, the graduates had Ms. Kestler read a prepared speech on behalf of the group. Her comments reflected the teamwork that the graduates relied upon to make it through the two-year curriculum. “As we stand here before you today, we are all proud to have been able to be a part of TRC Corporate College. The opportunity to attend credit classes at JCC has been a privilege,” Ms. Kestler said. “The last two years together – being college students as well as full-time employed, married and single, parents and grandparents – has seen many roads. We have been through cancer, separations, job changes, new relationships, engagements, hip surgery, job
displacement due to injury on the job, and the loss of a parent. There were times we were overwhelmed. We persevered, working hard, making time for essays, reading, and preparing speeches, getting here by making the grades, not by trying to outdo each other but by sharing notes, ideas, opinions, funny stories, prayers, and tears. “We would like to take the time to thank our families, friends and co-workers for being the strong support system we all needed. We didn’t do this alone,” she added. After thanking The Resource Center’s administration and staff training department, as well as JCC and their professors, Ms. Kestler quoted Nelson Mandela: “Education is the most powerful weapon you can use to change the world.” Area companies interested in developing a Corporate College program for their employees should contact Ms. Rupp at 338-1333.

Youth Symphony Announces Season, Launches Annual Fund Drive Contributed Article CRYS
Board President Tanya Anderson announced the launching of the Chautauqua Regional Youth Symphony’s annual fund drive. “It is rare that a community our size can offer an opportunity of this caliber,” said Anderson. “And we know that whether music becomes their profession or their pastime, our students’ participation in a demanding performance group will have a long-term impact on their lives.” CRYS sponsors three orchestras: Prelude Strings for beginning string musicians, Young Artists Orchestra (YAO) for intermediate musicians, and the Youth Symphony for highly talented and motivated musicians ages 13 through college. At their recent meeting, board members sent letters
to local individuals and businesses, requesting support for the Youth Symphony’s 2013-2014 season. This 27th season will open with the advanced string players of the Youth Symphony performing their Chamber Concert on Sunday, Nov. 24, at 7 p.m. in SS. Peter & Paul Church, 508 Cherry Street in Jamestown. Under the professional leadership of Maestro Bryan Eckenrode, CRYS music director and conductor since 2003, students have learning opportunities that are unique in the Chautauqua area. The Youth Symphony has a Chautauqua Weekend of intensive coaching and rehearsals at Chautauqua Institution in early spring, with a closing performance in the Elizabeth Lenna Hall. Last March CRYS students met some of the musicians of the Pittsburgh Sym-
phony Orchestra before hearing them accompany a screening of The Wizard of Oz in Pittsburgh’s magnificent Heinz Hall. Plans are being made for a similar enrichment experience this season. Rehearsals for all three orchestras begin in January, with Prelude at Lutheran on Friday afternoons and the Youth Symphony and YAO at the Reg Lenna Center for the Arts in downtown Jamestown on Saturday mornings. CRYS students pay tuition, but no one is turned away for inability to pay. CRYS receives essential funding from foundations and other organizations in the community. While parents, board members and students all participate in fund raising, support by individuals and local businesses is critical to CRYS’s survival. Among the ways the Youth Symphony expresses appre-
At their most recent meeting, Chautauqua Regional Youth Symphony board members sent letters to local individuals and businesses, inviting them to support the Youth Symphony’s 2013-2014 season. Among those working on the mailing were (from left) Kathy Geary, Michelle Carlson, Katie Derrenbacher, and Michelle Battaglia.
ciation to its contributors is by recognition on its website and in printed concert programs and through complimentary admissions to the Spring Gala Concert on Sunday, May 4, 2014, in the Reg Lenna Center for the Arts. Tax-deductible contribu-
tions to the Chautauqua Regional Youth Symphony can be mailed to P.O. Box 3454, Jamestown, NY 14702. For more information about CRYS and its programs for young musicians, call (716) 664-2465, ext. 202, or visit the website at

Bills Face Tough Test In Superdome By Jeff Mezydlo AP Writer
The New Orleans Saints have had plenty of time to move on from their first loss of the season, which came in heartbreaking fashion. Coming off their bye week, the Saints' focus shifts to trying to prevent the Buffalo Bills from moving back to .500 on Sunday at the Superdome. Tom Brady hit Kenbrell Thompkins for a 17-yard touchdown with 5 seconds left to deal the Saints a 30-27 loss at New England on Oct. 13. While the memory is hard for New Orleans' players to forget, the Saints (5-1) are confident going forward. CONTINUED ON PG 5
Spiral Continues As Sabres Fall To Bruins, 5-2 By Nick Mendola AP Writer
Milan Lucic got five stitches and the last word. The Buffalo crowd cheered when Lucic was struck in the face with a puck late in the first period of Boston's 5-2 victory over the reeling Sabres on Wednesday night. The rugged left wing left the ice for repairs, then responded by scoring 40 seconds into the second period. ''When you get hit in the face like that, it's never a good feeling,'' said Lucic, who had two goals and an assist. ''It's nice to get one when the crowd's cheering when you get hit in the face. It's nice to stick it to them that way.'' Torey Krug also scored twice, and Dougie Hamilton added his second goal of the season. The Bruins are 6-2 overall and have won their first four road games for the first time since 2010. Nikita Zadorov and Cody Hodgson scored for Buffalo. CONTINUED ON PG 2

NEW JCC ASSISTANT A.D. CONTINUED FROM PG 1
“It’s such a unique environment because you’re only there for a short amount of time,” she added. “There’s so much to do from an administrative standpoint. “I not only played at a community college,” Pucciarelli continued, “but I played at this one. When you’re that age sometimes you can feel overwhelmed and like no one understands you, especially someone in administration. Since I’ve been in their position not too long ago, that can put them at ease a little bit.” While Pucciarelli’s experience can help put studentathletes at ease, the new assistant athletic director can relax knowing she’s working under an extremely familiar face. Martin and Pucciarelli know each other well and are excited to take their relationship from coach-
athlete to colleagues. “It’s great to have a person like Angela come back home and be a part of JCC athletics,” Martin said. “She was around as an athlete so she knows the expectations of our studentathletes. She has a lot to offer our current athletes and can share her path along the way and where she’s gone. The experiences she’s had along the way can defi nitely help today’s athletes. We’re very fortunate to have her.” “I had a great relationship with him when I played for him,” Pucciarelli said of her former coach. “The lines of communication were always open. I couldn’t ask for a better fit. We work very well together.” “I’m excited for her,” Martin added. “I think she’s going to do great things.”

Let’s Take A Look At The Ol’ Predictions Brandon Weeden Disaster back under center. Pittsburgh has won two in a row after starting 0-4. Baltimore has lost to some good teams, but also lost to the Bills. Regardless, I still feel comfortable with my predictions of Cincinnati, Baltimore, Pittsburgh and Cleveland finishing in that order.
C O M M E N TA R Y
AFC SOUTH
By Stefan Gestwicki Star Sports Editor
The only thing that’s 100 percent guaranteed about predictions is that you’ll end up looking like a fool. Of course, that doesn’t stop people like me from taking the leap anyway. The National Football League is now seven weeks old so let’s take a look at how my early season calls look now.
AFC EAST
The New England Patriots are in first place as many projected. Even without ALL of his offensive weapons, Tom Brady is still leading this team to wins. Though season-ending injuries to defensive studs Vince Wilfork and Jerod Mayo puts a damper on Super Bowl thoughts. The real surprise of this division is the New York Jets. I wrote some very degrading things about Rex Ryan and his Gang Green, but they’ve shocked the football world with a 4-3 record thus far. Sustainable? Sure, as long as the defense keeps playing like it is. The Miami Dolphins, Buffalo Bills and Jets are all separated by just a game, but the Dolphins are trending downwards with a three-game losing streak. Buffalo has endured a litany of injuries at the quarterback position so sustained success for the Bills could be tough. It’s hard to predict 2 through 4 after New England wins the division again.
Raise your hand if you had the Houston Texans closer to last place than first place after seven weeks. Yeah, me neither. But that’s where they sit after playing horribly so far and could conceivably be 0-7 as their two wins were of the last-second variety. Indianapolis meanwhile has braved a hellish early schedule and has already beaten Seattle, San Francisco and Denver. Andrew Luck continues to show why he’ll be the best quarterback in the league by this time next year. What an amazing talent. Tennessee’s defense has been surprisingly effective, though the Titans sit at just 3-4. Jacksonville still has a team, but no wins. Cover your eyes as they play the 49ers this week. That could get ugly. I originally had Indianapolis finishing second behind the Texans, but it sure looks like it’ll be Indianapolis, Houston, Tennessee and Jacksonville. The only question is whether the Jags win a game.
AFC WEST
And the last undefeated team in the NFL is (drumroll please) the Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs sport one of the most disruptive defenses and one of the biggest home-field advantages in the game. Add in MVP candidate Jamal Charles and you’ve got yourself a nice team. Of course, I’ll stick by my early pick and say the Denver Broncos leapfrog KC in the standings and win AFC NORTH the division. Peyton ManHome to my Super Bowl pick, ning just has way too many the Cincinnati Bengals, the weapons.

“Rowdy” Roddy Piper will host a special edition of Piper’s Pit in Jamestown on Friday, Nov. 1. (Submitted Photo)
All of those notable wrestlers and more will be on hand for a night of entertainment that will bring back a flood of memories for anyone who watched these former greats in their hey day. Tatanka was a fan favorite as soon as he burst onto the professional wrestling scene with the then-World Wrestling Federation. He had a nearly two-year undefeated streak that is still remembered in the WWE. He feuded with the likes of Yokozuna, Bam Bam Bigelow and Ludvig Borga during his career. His streak was ended in one of the most memorable moments in WWF history when Yokozuna interfered in a match with Borga. The two then continued to pummel Tatanka with banzai drops. “The thing about it is after that loss I had some great battles with Yokozuna,” Tatanka said. “Everything was perfect. You had just the right story. The fans would get so involved in the match that they really hated Yokozuna or they hated Ludvig Borga. They wanted to make them pay. They were moments that stick out. Fans who loved that era remember the great stories.” Now, the former champion is excited to still be competing and enjoys coming to smaller venues like Jamestown. “I’ve been to Buffalo many times,” Tatanka said when asked if he’s ever been to Western New York. “The WWE was always playing the big cities so we wouldn’t do cities like Jamestown. What’s so great about this event is those fans that would normally have to drive an hour or an hourand-a-half to Buffalo, now we come right to their town. Promotions like this can do very well because there’s still that audience that remember and loved the early 90’s. They loved that era.” Tatanka also noted that interacting with fans is one of his favorite parts of wrestling. He encourages his fans to follow him on Facebook at https:// www.facebook.com/NativeTatanka or on Twitter @nativetatanka. He also has a website www.nativetatanka.com with a blog, merchadise, news, photo gallery and more. “I’m very active with the fans,” he noted. “I love responding to them. A lot of our fan base has steadily increased. People are still loving that era.”
One of the big events during this Legends of Wrestling night will be a special edition of ‘Piper’s Pit’ hosted by WWE Hall of Fame inductee ‘Rowdy’ Roddy Piper. He will be hosting fellow HOFer Jimmy ‘Mouth of the South’ Hart. “Roddy is still the Hot Rod,” Tatanka said of Piper. “The Pit was one of his biggest things that people remember. Jimmy Hart doesn’t look like he’s aged one day. And he’s definitely still the ‘Mouth of the South.’” Marty Jannetty is most famous for being half of the tag team The Rockers with Shawn Michaels. He also became a WWF Intercontinental Champion and held the WWF Tag Team Championship belts with 1-2-3 Kid, now X-Pac, during his time in the WWF. Brutus ‘The Barber’ Beefcake had a number of memorable moments during his time in the spotlight, perhaps most notably his teaming up with Hulk Hogan. He also feuded with such notable superstars as Honky Tonk Man and ‘Macho Man’ Randy Savage. He was known for his zany outfits and his tendency to chop his opponent’s hair off following his patented sleeper hold. “You don’t see characters like that anymore,” Tatanka said. “Everyone was a different character. Back then, you didn’t break into wrestling if you didn’t have a character. Now everyone just looks the same. That’s why we love doing these events.” Perhaps the goofiest characters in the history of professional wrestling, the Bushwackers were intensely popular in the WWF. Bushwacker Luke will be involved in the Jamestown event, continuing a career that began in 1964. The Bushwackers were best known for their fan-friendly antics and fueds with the Nasty Boys. They even both dressed up like Doink the Clown during a WWF Survivor Series event. Tickets for the Legends of Wrestling event are currently on sale and available at the Arena box office at 319 West 3rd Street in Jamestown, online at www.jamestownarena.com or by phone at 716-484-2624. Tickets start at just $15. There are also 200 VIP Ringside seats available for $70, which includes a pre-show Legend’s Meet & Greet.

BILLS READY THEMSELVES FOR SUPERDOME BATTLE CONTINUED FROM PG 1 "The overall mood and spirits were good," coach Sean Payton said. "I like the work ethic, the competitive nature of this team. I like it a lot." The NFC South leaders are sixth in the NFL with 397.7 total yards and 26.8 points per game. New Orleans ranks 28th with 3.4 yards per carry, but Drew Brees has completed a league-high 69 passes to his running backs. The Saints are fourth with 17.2 points allowed per contest after giving up 28.4 in 2012. Brees believes the lessons learned from the dramatic loss to the Patriots will make the team stronger because of the way they've handled the situation. "At times, when you lose, especially a tough loss like that, you make more of an impact when you're encouraging and very positive," said Brees, who has eight touchdowns and one interception in the last three games. "At times, human nature would tell you to do one thing when really you may need to just take a deep breath and do the other. I think after a loss, human nature would tell you to get all riled up and mad and angry and yell. I think cooler heads prevailed and Sean has a great feel for that, to say, 'Man, you guys battled, you played your heart out. It didn't go our way this time but there's going to be many more like this. Let's be ready to win those.'" Brees hopes Jimmy Graham can play Sunday after suffering a foot injury last
confident he'll play Sunday despite his injuries. "I expect to be out there. I'll do everything I can," he said. "We've got a great opportunity in front of us right now. And I want to be a part of it. The confidence in this locker room is skyhigh in here. We believe in ourselves. And there's nothing more powerful than a locker room that has confidence in itself."

when Scott skated in from Eriksson's right and leveled him with a shoulder to the face. Eriksson was dazed and had to be helped off the ice and did not return. Following the game, general manager Peter Chiarelli announced Eriksson was staying behind in Buffalo for precautionary reasons and expected to return to Boston on Thursday. Scott was ejected, and is expected to face a disciplinary hearing with the NHL. Bruins coach Claude Julien was unhappy with the hit, and was spotted yelling in the direction of the Sabres' bench. ''He's out there for two reasons and that's either to fight or hurt,'' Julien said

about Scott. ''So he did his job tonight.'' The Bruins responded with Krug scoring on the ensuing power play. ''We were starting to come around,'' said Sabres goalie Ryan Miller, who made 29 saves. ''We got some life off those goals in the second period. For the most part we cleaned some stuff up. Our transition to defense cost us two but other than that we're in a hockey game.'' Chad Johnson made 14 saves for Boston to earn the win. Boston opened the scoring when Jarome Iginla's wrist shot deflected off Lucic and through Miller's legs. The Bruins doubled their

WHEN WILL THE CAROUSEL STOP? CONTINUED FROM PG 1 At 1-9-1, the Sabres are off to their worst start in franchise history. They are winless in their first seven home games in a skid that continues to raise questions of how much more patience owner Terry Pegula has in the team's rebuilding plan. General manager Darcy Regier and coach Ron Rolston find themselves on the hot seat as the team prepares for a two-game swing through Florida. By the time Krug netted the second of his two third-period goals, the fans launched into what have become regular ''Fire Darcy! Fire Darcy!'' chants in reference to Regier. As for Rolston, he's 16-20-6 since taking over in February after Lindy Ruff was fired. Coincidently, Ruff is now coaching the Dallas Stars, and will be making his return to Buffalo on Monday night. It was another hit to the head that earned the ire of the Bruins as Boston left wing Loui Eriksson had to be helped from the ice after being blindsided by a late hit from Sabres enforcer John Scott in the third period. Eriksson was skating through the neutral zone and had dumped the puck into the Sabres end. That's

lead 40 seconds into the second on Lucic's teamleading fi fth goal. Iginla fired a pass from the right boards to Lucic and he tapped the puck in before crashing into the boards behind Miller. Buffalo's first goal came from its struggling power play, which improved to 4 for 38 when Cody Hodgson scored 8:21 into the second period. The Sabres only managed two shots in the third period and were outshot 34-16 overall. ''They've got a strong team from their 'D' all the way up to their forwards and we didn't match them,'' Sabres co-captain Steve Ott said. Zadorov's first NHL goal, in just his second NHL game, brought the Sabres within one with 4:50 to play in the second period. Zadorov moved on his backhand around Bruins center before beating Johnson to the left side. ''It feels good for my first NHL goal, first pro goal of my life,'' Zadorov said. ''I'm really happy now.'' Zadorov is the secondyoungest player to score a goal for the Sabres, at 18 years, 190 days. Pierre Turgeon was 18 years, 54 days when he scored for Buffalo in 1987.
