big Changes at the fair
7534 ROUTE 380, STOCKTON, NY
neW shoWs, games and midWay amusement Company promise exCiting year for fair By Patricia Pihl Managing Editor
“We’ve been tagged America’s Family Fair and we think that’s a pretty cool moniker for us.” Named as one of ten notable fairs in the country by USA Today, the distinction is about tradition, according to the newspaper, but as fair publicity director Michael Ferguson states it is also about continuing to be relevant to all age groups. One of the ways the fair is accomplishing that goal this year is in its choice of a new midway with Bates Bros. Amusement Company of Wintersville, Ohio. The company, a leader in safety and repair, travels to both small and large venues throughout the Northeast. “They are really at the top of their class,” says Ferguson. “Not only do they serve as an amusement midway… but also make these rides and maintain them, as well as sell to other midways.” New rides with the names “Fireball,” “Inverter,” and “Zipper” also up the ante for fair goers looking for something different than the same ole, same ole. “We were looking for a change, some newer rides, and also new personnel, to bring back more fun, credibility and enthusiasm,” says Some of the rides that will be at this year’s Chautauqua County Fair. In addition to the traditional events, this Ferguson.

Chautauqua County Humane Society Pet of the Week
Pet of the Week
This week we are featuring “Moondoggie” and “Izzy”. Moondoggie is a 2 year old Norwegian Elkhound/ Husky mix. He is very sweet and likes everyone. He would probably do best in an active home without cats. He likes to be petted and loves his walks. Izzy is a 4 year old shorthaired kitty that has been at the shelter for nearly a year. He is very active and likes to play. He loves to perch on a high shelf and watch what everyone is doing. He does not like dogs and needs a home where there are none. If you can fi nd it in your heart to give either of these pets a 2nd chance at a good life, stop by the Strunk Road Adoption Center and meet them. You’ll be glad you did.

Do not enter the water if you have open cuts or sores. If pets enter the water containing blue-green algae, wash them immediately and don’t let them lick their fur. There are no mechanical or chemical methods to eliminate a bloom. This problem can only be solved by reducing nutrients washing into the lake from the watershed, which act as fertilizer for both algae and weeds. Watershed management plans have been developed for several lakes including Chautauqua and Findley to address the nutrient problem. As recommendations in the plan are implemented, improved water quality will follow, but it will take years to see improvements. For more information about blue-green algae, please go to the DHHS website at myhealthycounty.com. The web site also contains information about bathing beach closures for public beaches in Chautauqua County.

when they occur. This includes closely monitoring permitted bathing beaches and public drinking water supplies, along with collecting a limited number of samples from our lakes for submission to the New York State Department of Health laboratory. Not all algal blooms are hazardous, but DHHS recommends taking the following precautions: Avoid or limit exposure to water where these algal blooms are occurring. This especially includes swimming and other contact recreation where the water could be accidentally swallowed. Do not allow young children or pets to play in water where an algal bloom is present. Wash your hands and body thoroughly if exposed to algae and any time after swimming or recreating in the lake. Do not use any water from lakes for drinking unless it has been treated through a municipal water treatment plant.

Warm temperatures are setting the stage for bluegreen algae blooms on area lakes. The Public Health Division of the Chautauqua County Department of Health & Human Services (DHHS) urges all residents to be cautious when recreating in our lakes, especially if algae is present. Bluegreen algal blooms can be a problem because they can release a toxin, which at high levels is harmful to human and animal health if ingested. Blue-green algae is actually a type of cyanobacteria that can form thick mats on the water surface resembling paint, and can range in color from gray to various shades of yellow, green, blue or brown. This is a problem throughout New York and many other states and proved to be quite significant on Chautauqua Lake in recent years and on our other inland lakes. Christine Schuyler, County Director of Health & Human Services, emphasized
that “the real threat to public health from cyanobacteria is when people or pets drink or otherwise ingest water directly from a lake where a bloom is occurring. Lake water that is properly treated through an approved DHHS water treatment plant does not pose a risk. Swimming or recreating in areas where the water contains high levels of toxin can cause skin irritation and other symptoms to those with high sensitivity.” Schuyler went on to explain “a significant amount of sampling and testing for microcystin, one of the most common toxins produced by cyanobacteria, has been done on Chautauqua and Findley lakes over the past three years. The only samples that have been high were those from locations where significant blooms were present and the water was very unsightly.” DHHS has developed a response plan to help protect the public from health effects caused by blue-green algal blooms

WOMEN’S SECTION becoming a history detective using ancestry.com
By Dodi Kingsfield Star Contributing Writer
Now that I am getting older and the relatives that remember all of the family stories are passing away or can’t recall the details, I have felt this incredible need to document my family history. Due to its online convenience, worldwide usage and product reputation, I chose ancestry.com as my family tree archive and instantly discovered ancient history! With a simple computer that has Internet access and a major credit card, ancestry.com can be purchased and accessed online instantly. To see if ancestry. com is the tool for you, a 14-day free trial is available and you can immediately build your family tree using
the actual database. After the free trial, your credit card will be charged for the one or six month plan you signed up for. There is also the option of picking the U.S. database or the world wide version, which is almost a third more of the cost but well worth it. Cancelling the subscription at any time is always a viable alternative if the program is not for you. Once in the online program, begin by creating a family tree, normally starting with yourself and working backward. Living members of family trees are not visible to the public and are shown as “Private” for obvious reasons. Continue entering your parents’ information such as birth date and place and their parents’ information. As the database begins to recognize relatives identified elsewhere, a little leaf will show up on their block of the family tree to let you know there is a hint that may apply to this person in your tree. You can check each hint and if it applies, you can link to it and if not, ignore it. The accuracy of the family tree
that you build is only as accurate as the information you check. It’s not uncommon to see spouses linked with their in-laws as their blood parents or the birth dates of children before the birth dates of the parents. Eventually, a family tree is built based on the information identified by you; the ancestry database and the many questions posed to relatives and other ancestry.com family members. To confirm that suggested ancestors are yours, ancestry.com provides links to birth, marriage and death records, military records, immigration and naturalization records, census records and ten years of genealogical data compiled in their database. By agreeing or disagreeing to the linking of the suggested record to your ancestor, you are in charge of creating your family tree based on the information you know to be true. Like a history detective, as one delves deeper and into family mysteries, the capabilities of ancestry.com in documenting and verifying genealogy information becomes very powerful. For
less than $100, members can have their DNA tested and their ethnicity confirmed based on percentages of the whole (i.e., 27% Italian, 33% Polish, etc.). A member can collaborate with other ancestry. com members on message boards, forums or personal e-mail. Ancestry.com is linked to all major social media, making bragging about great-great-auntie, the Russian princess effortless. If you’re lucky, you will discover a Gateway ancestor that links your family tree to the Millennium Records, a database of family research tied to European royalty and nobility. For the extreme history detective, ancestry.com provides access to professional genealogists or the ability to create family history books and memorabilia from your ancestry.com family tree. As for me, ancestry.com has helped me solve several family legends and generated many new ones. I’ve uncovered relatives that were officers in the Revolutionary War, and have traced as far back as 1550 on one side and discovered

intrigued by all things mechanical. A longtime member of a local sports car club and several snowmobile clubs, he has always been interested motor sports. He and his wife, Diana, first rode snowmobiles in 1971, during their honeymoon at a mountain resort in Western Pennsylvania. Since the late 1970’s, they have been avid snowmobilers riding every winter
there is enough snowfall, and traveling to other northern states and Canada to pursue the sport. They have often ridden in Chautauqua County, where Ritz took the book’s cover photo. “Even with the alarming scenario in this work, it is my desire that when reading the vivid descriptions of the beautiful snow covered surroundings found on even a typical snowmobile
ride, others will get out and enjoy the activity as my wife and I and many of our friends have. It offers unequaled adventure, excitement and family fun - especially without the
terrorists,” Ritz said. Prendergast Library is located at 509 Cherry Street, Jamestown. For information about Ritz’s appearance, call 484-7135.

Rev. Tim Stahlman Family Church Jamestown thenewfamilychurch.com
The Story of Bartimaeus The story of Bartimaeus as found in Mark 10:46-52 is an encouraging testimony of God’s power towards those that will believe on Him. Bartimaeus was a blind beggar who would sit on the road side near Jericho and ask alms of the people that walked by. One day Jesus, followed by His disciples and a very large number of people, walked by where Bartimaeus was begging. When Bartimaeus heard that it was Jesus Christ of Nazareth that was passing by, he began to shout, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me.” The people that were following Jesus scolded Bartimaeus to be quiet. Instead of shutting his mouth, Bartimaeus yelled all the louder. To the surprise of all His followers Jesus fi nally stopped and called Bartimaeus out of the crowd. In
verse 50 it says that Bartimaeus tossed off his garment and ran to Jesus. Bartimaeus was healed instantly. The first thing we have to notice in these scriptures is that Jesus walked right by that blind man at first. Jesus didn’t stop just because this man was suffering from hardship in life. There are many people in this life that need a touch from God but just because they are sitting in a pitiful state doesn’t mean God will stop and turn things around for them. The Lord is not a respecter of crisis; He is a respecter of faith. The Lord has another reality for us just as He had for this blind man that day. But remember: Just because God wants it for you doesn’t mean it will automatically happen. You have to want it too. Actually, just like Bartimaeus, you have to be
unwilling to go without God’s best for you. Bartimaeus wasn’t about to let the presence of the Lord go by without getting his supply! He was going to shout louder than a crowd of thousands! And as he shouted and called out, Jesus couldn’t keep walking. The Lord Jesus had to stop and deal with this man’s faith. The Lord cannot ignore our faith anymore than He could ignore the faith of Bartimaeus. Unfortunately, very few people have a Bartimaeus-like attitude about God. People today rarely pray, go to church, or study their Bible. God’s supply for your life will walk right past you if you let it. God’s power does not flow in random directions. It flows to the ones who cry out for it and pursue it. Secondly, we read in Mark 10:50 that Bartimaeus “cast away his
garment” as he ran to Jesus. History tells us that the Roman Empire in those days would require blind people to wear a government issued garment if they wanted to legally beg for money. That garment represented the world’s reality for Bartimaeus. In the eyes of the world he was worthless, beggarly, and someone to command to remain quiet. The world defi ned him as pathetic. But that day, though he was blind naturally, Bartimaeus “saw” that another reality was possible. He tossed off all the labels the world pasted on him and ran towards the new reality of God’s power. What labels has the world tried to make you wear? Divorced? Sick? Depressed? Poor? Get into a good Bible teaching local church and learn how to toss off the garments the world has put on you!

working outdoors. Check on family, friends and neighbors who do not have air conditioning, who spend much of their time alone or who are more likely to be affected by the heat. Check on animals frequently to ensure that they are not suffering from the heat. Make sure they have plenty of cool water. If someone doesn’t have air conditioning, they should choose places to go to for relief from the heat during the warmest part of the day (schools, libraries, theaters, malls). Heat Exhaustion Excessive heat can lead to sunburn, heat cramps, heat exhaustion and heat stroke.
If someone is experiencing heat cramps in the legs or abdomen, get them to a cooler place, have them rest, lightly stretch the affected muscle, and replenish their fluids with a half a glass (about 4 ounces) of cool water every 15 minutes. If someone is exhibiting signs of heat exhaustion (cool, moist, pale or flushed skin, heavy sweating, headache, nausea, dizziness, weakness exhaustion), move them to a cooler place, remove or loosen tight clothing and spray the person with water or apply cool, wet cloths or towels to the skin. Fan the person. If they are conscious, give small amounts of cool water to drink. Make sure
the person drinks slowly. Watch for changes in condition. If the person refuses water, vomits or begins to lose consciousness, call 9-1-1 or the local emergency number. Heat Stroke Is LifeThreatening Signs include hot, red skin which may be dry or moist; changes in consciousness; vomiting and high body temperature. Call 9-1-1 or the local emergency number immediately if someone shows signs of heat stroke. Move the person to a cooler place. Quickly cool the person’s body by immersing them up to their neck in cold water if possible. Otherwise, douse or spray the person with cold water, or cover the person
with cold, wet towels or bags of ice.

Lutheran to host open house for new Modern rehab Center Contributed Article Lutheran
The community is invited to an Open House, showcasing the newly renovated sub-acute rehabilitation center at Lutheran. The event is Tuesday, July 23, from 4 p.m. until 7 p.m. at 715 Falconer Street on the Lutheran Campus. Staff will be on hand for tours of the new patient rooms and rehab area. Visitors will have an opportunity to interact with
the rehab staff and try out some of the assistive devices they use to help patients regain their strength and independence. Light refreshments will be served. “This is a good time for caregivers and anyone who knows they will need rehab in the future to come and meet our staff and check out the facility,” said Tom Holt, president and CEO. “We’d love to have some of our previous patients come back to see the improvements. We learned a lot in the seven years since
we first opened the rehab unit. We’ve taken the great ideas we received from staff and patients and created a whole new experience.” The patient rooms are now located closer to the rehab area, making it more convenient for everyone. All rooms are single rooms with modern furnishings and a private bath. Free Wi-Fi and cable are available, as well as, a wall mounted flat screen TV. The new dining area has been designed specifically for the short term rehab
resident. In addition to a schedule of fun activities, patients can enjoy the gift shop, beauty salon, barber shop and Sunday church service in the chapel. “The renovations bring the facility in line with the warmth and compassion of our employees,” Holt said. “We’ve created a family friendly atmosphere where our patients can focus on recovery and get back to the things they enjoy.” The Lutheran Home and Rehabilitation Center

downsized from a 254 bed facility to a 148 bed facility and expanded other services. “Our vision is to be the go-to resource for seniors by providing a wide range of services that will help people remain independent,” Holt said. In the last few years, Lutheran expanded assisted living, added a medical model day care program and the new 14-unit Smartment ® Building. “We’re serving more people but in ways that enhance their quality of life,” Holt said. “There
will always be a need for the nursing home, but we believe nursing home stays will be shorter as seniors have other options available to them.” For more information about Lutheran or to access senior services call 716665-4905 or log onto www. lutheran-jamestown.org.

While acknowledging its farm roots including 4-H, the trick he says is to “continue to keep looking for things in the grandstand while maintaining the fun and simplicity of a county fair.” He also wishes to alert fairgoers to the exhibits in

Chautauqua County fair demolition derby Continues to Grow Contributed Article Chautauqua County Fair
One of the most anticipated events during any county fair is the excitement of the annual Demolition Derby events. The thrill of watching combatants take vehicles that just a short time ago might have been family transportation and turn them into piles of crushed metals has always drawn the attention of motorsports enthusiast and thrill show attendees alike! This years action will take place across two days of the seven day annual County Fair. Qualifiers begin Tuesday, July 23 at the Budweiser Grandstand beginning at 7 p.m. The finals of the derby will be held Sunday, July 28, also beginning at 7 p.m. with a Grand Finale fireworks show wrapping up the fair sponsored by 21 Brix Winery of Portland, NY. “The annual Demolition
Derby events are some of the most attended events of Fair Week,” stated fair board member and marketing director, Mike Ferguson of Fredonia. “It is the hottest ticket in Chautauqua County for both days of the event. And along with continually improving our total fair offerings, we know we have to continue to make our Derby appealing to both new and returning drivers. Competing in any demolition derby is both a fi nancial and physical commitment and we appreciate those drivers, sponsors and families that help make the evening both entertaining and competitive.” said Ferguson. Sponsors for the Demolition Derby include: Shults Resale Center, Fredonia Chrysler Dodge Jeep and Ram along with Dunn Tire who will provide the winning driver with a brand new set of tires. Prize money has also increased: Large car feature winner
is $1,250; second place is $500; third place is $350 and Best of Show is $100. The small car feature winner will receive $600; second place is $300 and third is $100. The championship event will be open to the winner, the second place winner and the best of show from the event on July 23 and July 28. Up to eleven qualifying demolitions (up to 6 heats on Tuesday, July 23 and up to 5 heats, plus feature on Sunday, July 28.) The last two drivers remaining and running and hitting for each event will also take home an additional $200. Besides prize money, cars and drivers will also compete for a chance to qualify for the NYS Fair Championship in Syracuse, New York in August. If the winning driver chooses not to attend the Championship, $100 of the winning purse will go to the alternate winner willing to attend and compete in the state championship. Drivers must register their vehicles by completing the application that can be found and downloaded from the official fair website: www.chautauquacountyfair.org. Or by stopping by the Fair Office on Central Avenue and picking up their application.

10 MoVieS and theater Chautauqua institution Presents “the romeo & Juliet Project” an original inter-arts Collaboration Contributed Article Chautauqua Institution
Shakespeare’s timeless love story Romeo and Juliet will be reinvented on Chautauqua Institution’s Amphitheater stage Saturday, July 27, with The Romeo & Juliet Project, an original inter-arts collaboration that brings together Chautauqua’s signature arts programs for a unique, one-night-only event. The massive co-production features three sets of Romeos and Juliets — actors, dancers and singers — joined onstage by 86 other performers and a 74-piece orchestra that fuses Shakespeare’s words with music by Tchaikovsky, Berlioz, Duke Ellington, Leonard Bernstein, Gounod and the Reflections. The Romeo & Juliet Project is the result of a yearlong collaboration among Chautauqua Institution’s resident arts companies, including the Chautauqua Symphony Orchestra, Chautauqua Theater Company, Chautauqua Opera Company, North Carolina Dance Theatre and Chautauqua Festival Dancers, and Chautauqua Music Festival. The genesis for the project lies in a directive given by Chautauqua Institution President Thomas M. Becker and the nonprofit organization’s board of trustees to seek out and maximize collaborative opportunities on the Chautauqua grounds. The Romeo & Juliet Project is the first in a series of collaborative arts productions over the next three years. “The purpose of this effort is to illuminate the extraor-
dinary artistic capacity of Chautauqua Institution, a community that invests in art and in artists,” Becker said. “We believe that art and artists are keys to a society in touch with the human condition, with a capacity for empathy and open to critical reflection. We believe that unlocking imagination is vital to human development and genuine communication and to global development and competition.” The director of The Romeo & Juliet Project is Vivienne Benesch, artistic director of Chautauqua Theater Company, who partnered with Chautauqua’s other artistic directors in shaping the direction of the production. Benesch said the future of the performing arts around the United States is in the hands of interdisciplinary creations, and she hopes The Romeo & Juliet Project audience will experience “an electricity of storytelling in a totally new way.” “If we do our job well enough, people are going to crave more of this kind of work and get behind the fact that Chautauqua has an opportunity to develop something that is a necessity in the cultural landscape of tomorrow,” she said. Joining Benesch in the collaboration are Chautauqua Opera Company general/artistic director Jay Lesenger, Music Festival managing director Oliver Dow, Voice Program chair Marlena Malas and Voice Program faculty member Donald St. Pierre, and Jean-Pierre Bonnefoux, artistic director of North Carolina Dance Theatre and the Chautauqua Dance
program. Music School Festival Orchestra music director Timothy Muffitt will lead the Chautauqua Symphony Orchestra for the July 27 performance. Muffitt noted that such a production is only possible at Chautauqua because of the resources available with a resident orchestra, theater company, dance company and opera company, as well as an extraordinary student artist population. “This is Chautauqua firing on all cylinders,” he said. “This is something that very much grew out of the Chautauqua artistic experience.” Chautauqua Institution Vice President and Director of Programming Marty Merkley said The Romeo & Juliet Project offers a performance audiences have never seen before. “Much of the audience will know the play, many will be familiar with the different musical selections, but to put it together in one evening is just so unique and really unheard of,” Merkley said. More information about The Romeo & Juliet Project is available at chqinterarts.com, including behind-the-scenes videos and interviews with Chautauqua’s artistic directors. Chautauqua Institution is a summer community located in southwestern New York state on Chautauqua Lake. It offers a unique mix of fi ne and performing arts, lectures, interfaith worship, educational programs, and recreational activities. Each summer the Institution hosts more than 2,200 events and 100,000 guests. For more information, please visit www.ciweb.org.

By Erica Yunghans Star Contributing Writer
When you hear the word “slavery” what is the first image that comes to mind? Workers on a cotton plantation during the 1800’s, or perhaps forced factory laborers in a third world country might be the first thoughts for most people. No one wants to think of a child prostitution ring in Orlando, Fla., or families in Thailand selling their daughters for material items that symbolize prestige. The institution of slavery has not disappeared with our past. It has only changed forms and is now more prevalent in the world than ever. Every year, thousands of women and children fall into the hands of traffickers in their own countries and abroad. Almost every country in the world is implicated by this injustice, whether as a country of origin, transit, or destination. According to a U.S. State Department report released in March, 2012: Governments estimate there are 27 million slaves being held worldwide — more than at any point in human history. Included in this figure are as many as 2 million children who are
subjected to prostitution in the global commercial sex trade. In the face of such an atrocity, it might be more comfortable to remain ignorant or turn a blind eye, but many concerned citizens simply cannot do so. Stuart Bauer, an area native has taken this cause to heart. Bauer has become a volunteer for Exodus Cry, an international ministry based in Grandview, Mo. The purpose of Exodus Cry is to abolish sex enslavement worldwide through prayer, awareness efforts, nonviolent rescue, and the rehabilitation and social reintegration of victims. Bauer’s journey to advocacy against human trafficking began after watching Christian fi lmmaker Benjamin Nolot’s 2011 documentary Nefarious: Merchant of Souls.“When I saw this movie a couple of months ago I was truly moved and disturbed that human beings could treat each other human beings so badly. I have never been exposed to evil like this in my life. And after watching this movie I thought to myself I can’t just sit back and do nothing,” Bauer said during a recent interview. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services reported in 2011 that the sale of women constitutes the third largest criminal industry in the world, second only to the drug and arms trades. It can be hard to understand how something so inhuman and degrading can be forced on one human being by another. How do the victims become involved? What kinds of people create the demand that drives this industry? How can we even begin to tackle something that is already so widespread?
Exodus Cry took a trip to Southeast Asia to explore the world of sex slavery. The crew visited dingy karaoke bars, remote villages, massage parlors and highend beach destinations fi nding one steady consistency –– the exploitation of young women and children. Content for Nefarious was gathered in 19 different countries; spanning from North and Central America to Europe, Asia and the Middle East. Nefarious reveals what life is like for those who are trapped in this lifestyle. Moviegoers will learn about the scenarios under which individuals become victimized, and discover that the needs exploited by the traffickers are not so different from the needs you seek to fulfi ll in your own life. Viewers will discover that the individuals creating the demand for forced sexual servitude range in all ages, and are not the obviously shady characters you would expect. Bauer is sponsoring two screenings of Nefarious: Merchant of Souls locally. The first viewing will be held on Tuesday, July 23 at the Willow Bay Theater (formerly The Crown Theater), located at 21 East Third St., in Jamestown. The second screening will be held at the 1891 Fredonia Opera House, located at 9-11 Church St., in Fredonia on Wednesday, July 24. Both screenings begin at 7 p.m. Tickets cost $5 at the door only. Due to the violent content portrayed attendants are asked to be 18 years or older. After the fi lm, Bauer is hosting a question and answer period both days.

New Award Honoring the Teaching of Justice and Human Rights Contributed Article Robert H. Jackson Center
The Robert H. Jackson Center and the National Council for the Social Studies (NCSS) are pleased to announce a partnership to offer the Robert H. Jackson Center Award for Teaching Justice. The award was created to honor an educator who teaches the concept of justice in creative, inspiring ways, which may include teaching about civil liberties, human rights, international humanitarian law, the Holocaust, genocide studies, or local issues of justice. Nominations are now being accepted -- Nomination guidelines and criteria are available by visiting the Center’s website at www. roberthjackson.org and
clicking on the link that is featured on the home page. You may submit a nomination by sending the requested materials to the Robert H. Jackson Center, 305 E. Fourth Street, Jamestown, NY 14701 or via email to info@roberthjackson.org. Nominations are due by August 9. Born in rural northwestern Pennsylvania, Robert H. Jackson was a country lawyer in Jamestown, NY who subsequently served as Solicitor General, Attorney General, and as an Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court. Following World War II, Justice Jackson was selected by President Truman to be the Chief U.S. Prosecutor at the International Military Tribunal, Nuremberg, where he personally
lead the trials against the senior Nazi leadership for crimes against humanity, war crimes and crimes of aggression. His groundbreaking work at Nuremberg served as a model for today’s International Criminal Tribunals in The Hague, Africa and elsewhere. His writings and actions have come to personify the American ideal of fairness and justice for all. The Robert H. Jackson Center in Jamestown, New York was established to honor and advance Justice Jackson’s remarkable legacy, pursue the relevance of his life’s work, and to provide an educational facility for those purposes. The Center’s programs place special emphasis on educating youth on issues
of justice and fairness and applying Jackson’s work in international humanitarian law as it relates to bringing to trial those responsible for war crimes, crimes against humanity, genocide and other serious violations of international law. More information about the Center can be found at www. roberthjackson.org.

Some reports suggest he had a nervous breakdown; some said it was connected to his being shot in the Civil War and the lead bullet had not been removed. He was also permanently immobilized due to incurable epilepsy, making him an invalid later in life. As quickly as its rise in popularity, The Lakeside School of Theology also quickly faded. Faulk states that donor William White left $1,500 on the mortgage and the Lakeside property went into foreclosure. The amphitheater, which once seated 2,500, was torn down in 1893 with the lumber used to build new cottages in Bemus Point. Faulk argues Townsend cannot merely be measured by the ultimate failure of the Lakeside school, but instead by the very large national exposure given to his ideas, as well as his personal contact with many of the greatest thinkers of his time. “His deductions of pure intellect”, he states, “represented the highest standards of Western civilization and perhaps unconsciously, a great factor in the evolution of human thought.” His publication the “New Theology Herald,” cir-
culated in 25 states and Canada, was groundbreaking in liberal religion. “What would have become

i Was Wrong about Bryce Harper
By Mike Fitzpatrick AP Sports Writer
Mariano Rivera was all set up to save his fi nal All-Star game - or so it seemed. Jim Leyland just wasn't about to take that chance. Summoned in the eighth inning to make certain he would pitch, Rivera soaked up a 90-second standing ovation and got three straight outs while helping the American League to a 3-0 victory over the National League on Tuesday night at Citi Field. ''I think the plan was perfect,'' said Rivera, who took home the MVP trophy. Rivera reported early for work and the New York Yankees' indomitable closer combined with nine other pitchers on a three-hitter as the AL snapped a three-game skid and regained home-field advantage in the World Series. Joe Nathan saved it in Rivera's place after the American League scratched out a pair of runs and got an RBI double from Jason Kipnis. Leyland, the AL manager, had promised Rivera would pitch. So rather than risk waiting for a save opportunity that might never come, the Detroit Tigers' skipper made his much-awaited call one inning earlier than Rivera is accustomed, just in case of ''something freaky.''

Lake Erie Fishing Hotline Contributed Article Department of Environmental Conservation
Walleye action at the east end of Lake Erie right now can't be beat, with anglers from Sturgeon Point to Buffalo reporting limit catches. The hot bite has been in 55-65 feet of water along the international line between (off ) Sturgeon Point and Myers Reef. It doesn't seem to matter what your running, as 30 jets, dipseys, 6 colors of lead core and downriggers are all working. Worm harnesses and stickbaits run within 10 feet of bottom have produced good catches of big walleye. Buffalo area anglers also see good action in 37-45 feet of water near the departure buoy, off the windmills and Hamburg. Both trolling and bottom bouncing have been productive. Walleye fi shing in the Dunkirk area has been slow, with no solid reports received. The upwelling event over a week ago off Barcelona had slowed things down, however the walleye bite has picked back up over the past few days. Trollers now report decent walleye catches in 60-72 feet of water. Worm harnesses have out produced stickbaits for suspended walleye in the top 30 feet of the water column. With so many anglers targeting walleye, few yellow perch reports have fi ltered in. Perch schools may also be a bit more scattered, so it will likely take some searching. Previously, better catches were found at depths of 60-65 feet of water between Cattaraugus Creek and Sturgeon Point. Live emerald shiners are the best bait, but have been quite scarce lately. Fathead minnows or small golden shiners are the best alternative. Smallmouth bass will move deeper as nearshore lake waters warm. Target structure areas around reefs, rock piles and dropoffs with drop-shot rigs combined with crayfish, minnows, tube jigs or other plastic baits. Depths of around 25 feet is a good starting point, and work deeper for larger bronzebacks. For more information see the Smallmouth Bass Fishing on Lake Erie page.
upper niagara river
Smallmouth bass are available throughout the upper river. Concentrate on areas outside weed edges in 10-20 feet of water. The west bank of Grand Island near Beaver Island State Park and the east side of Strawberry and Motor Islands are good locations. Drifting with a three-way bottom bouncing rig and crayfi sh works well. Anglers can target muskellunge by drifting on the outside of weed edges with large 8-10 inch tube jigs or by casting large stickbaits. Either side of Strawberry Island can be productive. A recent survey also showed good numbers of musky and pike along the east side of Grand Island near Spicer Creek. Anglers catch a mix of black bass, perch, sunfi sh and sheephead from Buffalo area shore sites. Live bait (minnows, crayfi sh and
worms) is best.

69 Years of Gerry rodeo
Submitted Article Paul K. Cooley
When July 31 rolls around this year, the tiny hamlet of Gerry just north of Jamestown will celebrate the opening night of its 69th consecutive annual rodeo — the longest running PRCA rodeo east of the Mississippi. For four days this quiet little village becomes "The Rodeo Capital of the East" as approximately 130 cowboys and cowgirls roll into town and pay their entry fees to vie for more than $35,000 in prize money in five performances.

fessional Rodeo Cowboys' Association. Participants pay an entry fee and points earned in Gerry count toward qualification to the annual National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas in December. The contractor for this year's event will again be Painted Pony Championship Rodeo of Lake Luzerne, New York, owned by the husband and wife team of Shawn and Shana Graham, who have been producing rodeos for more than 10 years at their home location in Lake Luzerne as well as sponsoring rodeos across the Northeast. Both of them have previously participated as contestants in Gerry and are excited about returning as the contractors for this event. Over the years constant improvements have been made to the rodeo facilities. Additional land has been acquired, permanent bleachers have been installed in an arena seating 4,000, new lighting turns night to day, and the old dining hall has just been enlarged, refurbished, and air-conditioned to accommodate the hundreds who come each year just to enjoy the world-famous beef barbeque dinners. Over a thousand pounds of beef are cooked daily in pits over wood fires outside the dining hall. The wood must be one-year-old maple in order to create the proper cooking standards. Perhaps one of the bestkept secrets is the recipe for the homemade barbeque sauce. The dinners also
feature everyone's favorite fried potatoes done outdoors in large iron kettles. The midway houses more than 20 booths offering everything from cotton candy to Western wear. The rodeo has always been promoted as family entertainment and is therefore alcohol free. Today the rodeo consists of the same competitive events it did 69 years ago: bareback bronc riding, tiedown roping, saddle bronc riding, bull riding, steer wrestling, team roping, and cowgirls' barrel racing, with all the entrants competing for cash prizes and points. In addition there are specialty acts such as trick riding, animal acts, and clowns. A recently added feature allows young spectators to enter the arena to compete for prizes as they chase ribbons tied to calves' tails. Also there will be a return of a free kids' rodeo at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday morning, Aug. 3, where kids from ages 3-8 can compete in the arena in rodeo related games. The profits from the rodeos over the years have enabled the Fire Department to purchase modern fire and rescue equipment for the protection of the residents of the town. Today the Department has two pumpers, two tankers, a utility truck, and a recently purchased state-of-the-art ambulance, and they answer more than 350 calls per year. A replica of the Department's first fire truck, a Model T Ford outfitted with
the original fire fighting equipment, is on display at each rodeo. The Department's first pumper was built during World War II in the 1940's by members of the Department who traveled to Buffalo by bus to work on the truck weekends since the factory was being used weekdays to build war equipment. This year's rodeo runs July 31 through August 3 with nightly performances at 8:00 p.m. Wednesday through Saturday and a Saturday matinee at 2:00 p.m. in the arena located five miles north of Jamestown on Route 60. Barbeque dinners are served each evening at 5:00 p.m. Additional information is available by phone at (716) 985-4847 or 1-888985-4847 or on-line at www.gerryrodeo.org. The website for information about Painted Pony Championship Rodeo is www. paintedponyrodeo.com. All but one of the charter members who planned the first rodeo are gone, but the dream that began 69 years ago is still alive and well, proving what can be accomplished when neighbors have a common goal and work together to meet that goal. Following the last performance on August 3, the rodeo grounds will empty out within hours as the stock will be loaded onto semis, the contestants will pack their gear and move on down the road to their next rodeo and the residents of Gerry will begin the cleanup process after a long, tiring week. But as they go back to their normal routines on Monday, they look back with pride on the accomplishments of their little town and are already planning for next year's rodeo. Paul K.Cooley is a retired teacher of English and Journalism at Cassadaga Valley Central School and is a life member of the Gerry Volunteer Fire Department. This will be his 53nd year of working at the Gerry Rodeo, where he serves as the Rodeo's Media Coordinator and runs one of the concession stands for the Fire Department.

Golfer's
D i a ry
neVer Be nerVouS aBout pLaying in a tournament
By Stefan Gestwicki Star Sports Editor
My golfer’s diary will follow my golf outing(s) for the week. I’ll look at how course conditions, weather, equipment, playing partners, etc. affect the game we love. Please keep in mind that I only started golfing last year, so yes, my scores are hardly that of a scratch golfer. But that’s what makes golf great: You don’t have to be a zero handicap to enjoy the game. I had a unique and exciting week of golf as July continued to give us beautiful (albeit a little hot) golfi ng weather. I was given a chance to play in the Fredonia State Alumni Tournament at Shorewood Country Club on Friday afternoon. I’m not sure you could have drawn up a better day for golf. The temperature hovered in the mid-70s with low humidity and only a slight breeze. That said, I was very nervous leading up to the event. I played in one little tournament last year at Hillview Golf Course, but it was with three good friends who were all pretty terrible themselves. This time though I was playing with Star Media Group’s Jason Ferguson and two guys I had never met. I went in simply not wanting to embarrass myself. That is until one of those guys, Jim, said “The thing about golf tournaments is that everybody (stinks).” And it was true. Looking at other groups of players there were very few capable players. Tournaments are just a great excuse for people to get out and play golf together and have some fun. And fun it was. First off the company was great. Jim and Ed turned out to be both good golfers and great company. I can’t imagine playing 18 holes of golf with someone you don’t like would be much fun. Also, there were all kinds of fun extras — special raffles if you hit the green on a par 3, a car for anyone who hit a hole-in-one, a putting

contest, etc. Golf in itself is a lot of fun, but those extras every few holes really added to the excitement. Perhaps the best part was that I didn’t embarrass myself — not even close. I played very well. As a team we were 6-under par with seven birdies and a bogey. I teed off first on every hole which really took the pressure off. If I sliced one into the next fairway, who cares? We have three more chances at setting ourselves up for birdie. Perhaps my highlight was a 30-foot birdie putt on No. 4 for birdie. There was kind of a double-break so I went right at it and the ball broke left and then right and went right in the cup. We probably distracted a few close golfers with our celebration. That wasn’t the last awesome shot our group had. Jason putted one in from the fringe on No. 16 for birdie. The putt was uphill and probably 25 feet. I got mine to within six inches on our first shot and figured that’d be the best we’d get. I was wrong, luckily. Again, our celebration may have been a little distract-
ing for someone teeing off on the hole ahead of us. The best shot of the day came from Jim. It was on the par 3 No. 6. No one landed on the green, but Jason’s tee shot was just short so we played his. I duffed mine, Jason yanked his and Ed topped his. From the closest ball at that point we’d be looking at a bogey. Enter Jim, who chipped in for birdie and saved the day. It was our third birdie on the first five holes so we were feeling it for sure. I was able to get out for nine more on Saturday at Cassadaga Country Club. I went with Bryan and was really feeling a good round coming after playing very well at Shorewood. What transpired was my first-ever multiple-birdie round and a day of very good drives. The round started perfectly. I smashed a drive further than I ever have on No. 1. I set myself up for a nice easy 9-iron onto the green. I was a weak baby on my birdie putt as I left it just short, but I was happy to start my day with a par. My drive on No. 2 may
have actually been better. The tee boxes had been moved to make the hole a little more difficult but I tattooed my drive with just a little bit of (accidental) fade and put it right on the green. Could it be that I’m slowly learning how to drive a little better? Unfortunately after that drive I hit my only rough patch of the day. I probably used the wrong club and came up short of the green on my second shot. I chipped past the pin and to the back of the green and then three-putted for a double-bogey. No. 3 was tough too as my drive landed right behind the huge cluster of trees on the left, giving me absolutely no look at the green. I was too close to the trees to try and lob the ball over, so I had to waste a shot getting back out to where I could see the pin. Bogeys on Nos. 4 & 5 got me feeling a little bit better before the first par 3. I hit the shot I always hit and left it on the far left edge of the green. Unfortunately the pin was on the far right side. No worries: All I did was sink a 35-foot putt for birdie — my first birdie on No. 6 this year and perhaps ever. My second birdie came on No. 9 — the site of my only career eagle. After a tee shot that was just obliterated, I found my ball way up on the cart path. After taking my free drop, I smashed an iron juuuust over the fi rst bunker and onto the fringe. With the pin also in the front of the green, I actually had a decent look at another eagle. After barely missing that, I stepped up and made the 8-inch birdie putt for a round of 44. If I wouldn’t have messed up Nos. 2 and 3 so badly I had a realistic shot at breaking 40 for the fi rst time ever. Now that would have been something to write about. Maybe next time.

JCC Announces Summer Sports Camp Schedule
Commentary continued from pg 1 The kid does nothing but hustle. He runs out every ground ball and he chases every fly ball like it’s the last out of the World Series. He stopped wearing that obnoxious eye black and has largely stayed out of the media spotlight despite playing in a huge market on the East Coast. So why did I still not like this guy? He plays the game the right way and makes baseball more exciting. Well as I watched him tag laser beam home runs all over the Citi Field on Monday night, I finally came to an answer. Commentators are always comparing Harper to great past players — namely Ken Griffey Jr. Well, Junior is undoubtedly my favorite baseball player, athlete and celebrity of all time. Having anyone compared to The Kid seems like sacrilege to me. But I can no longer hold that against him. Unless he somehow ends up playing for the Pittsburgh Pirates, I’ll never really be a fan of Bryce Harper, but I finally respect his talents. This kid is going to be a star player for many years. But don’t be fooled by his two All-Star appearances by age 20. Harper was named to last year’s team as a third injury replacement in the N.L. outfield. And this year he won the fan voting despite missing 31 games with an injury. His stats (.264/13/29 in 201 at bats) are fairly comparable with that of San Diego Padres outfielder Carlos Quentin (.275/12/35 in 240 at bats). And it’s fair to say that no one considers Quen-
tin an All Star. Yes, Harper is a very good player at this point in his career. Let’s just not get carried away quite yet and call him Ken Griffey Jr., who will certainly be enshrined in Cooperstown when the time comes. For being 20-years old though, you’d be hard-pressed to find a better player that young. Or would you? For the second half of this commentary I’d like to discuss the rest of the incredible young trio of position players that is taking the league by storm — 21-year old Angels outfielder Trout and Baltimore Orioles third baseman Manny Machado, who just turned 21 on July 6. Trout is currently playing left field for the Angels despite being one of the best center fielders in the game (again, a commentary for another day). He’s second in the American League with a .322 batting average. His on-base percentage is a tick below .400 while his OPS is at robust .964. His 15 home runs and 21 stolen bases are just one way to measure his impressive combination of speed and power. His Angels are struggling again in 2013, but it’s hard to put fault on Trout as he’s sitting fifth in the league with a 4.6 WAR (wins above replacement). All Machado has done this season is make a position switch from shortstop to become the best defensive third baseman I’ve ever seen (sorry Scott Rolen) while putting up recordbreaking numbers. Besides being second in WAR at 5.0, Machado has an insane

39 doubles at the All-Star break. I’m not sure if he’s still on a record pace, but the doubles record has stood for some 70 years, so it would be awesome to see it fall. Oh, he’s also second in the league in hits while putting up a slash of .310/.337/.470. You’d like to see that OBP a little higher, but the walks will come in time. He’s in the perfect situation for his skills this year too, hitting in front of fellow All Stars Adam Jones and Chris Davis. He sees an awful lot of hittable pitches. He’s hit seven home runs, too. So it’s not like he’s lacking power. When his frame starts to fill out a little bit I wouldn’t be surprised to see him turn into a 30-home run hitter. The current debate among baseball fans, media and even players is which of these three guys would you take to start a franchise. There’s absolutely no question that Trout is the best of the three right now. If it wasn’t for Miguel Cabrera winning the Triple Crown last season, Trout assuredly would have been named Most Valuable Player in the American League. His combination of speed and power at 21 years old is borderline unbelievable. I wish he played on the East Coast so I could watch him play more often. You probably wouldn’t get too much of an argument if you claimed that Harper has the most potential. He’s going to be a masher in this league for a long time. In the right situation he could even finish his career with upwards of 500 home
runs. That’s getting way far ahead I know, but that’s the kind of raw power this kid possesses. Despite having a catcher’s arm in right field, his defense scares me a little bit. He doesn’t take the best routes to balls and his willingness to run full force into fences could shorten his career. So for my money I’m taking Machado. In the past 10 years we’ve seen very few offensively gifted shortstops. While Machado is playing third this year, he’ll move back to shortstop soon and his value will be even greater. It’s easy to get outfielders to put up aboveaverage numbers, but it’s just not that common for middle infielders. So if I’m starting a franchise, Machado is my No. 1 pick. Feel free to disagree. Just to save anyone the time: Don’t even bother telling me I left out Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Yasiel Puig. No I didn’t. I simply talked about the three best young players in the game. Puig makes the highlight reels but ESPN conveniently leaves out the time every game where he misses the cutoff man. Or the time he gets thrown out by 15 feet trying to turn a single into a double. Or the three times he struck out because the pitcher pounded him with fastballs inside. Puig might be a good player someday, but for now I’m willing to call him a flash in the pan.

CHAUTAUQUA STAR FRIDAY, JULY 19, 2013
AMerican League Wins 2013 All-Star Game continued from pg 1 Both came out throwing 99 mph heat, but it was Rivera, at 43 the oldest All-Star since Carlton Fisk in 1991, who was the center of attention in his farewell season. And on this night, with drug suspensions still looming for some of the game's biggest names, the spotlight found a player who is almost universally respected. Baseball's career saves leader came in from the bullpen to Metallica's ''Enter Sandman,'' just like across town at Yankee Stadium, and was left alone on the field to take in a stirring ovation. ''It was a great moment. He is one of the best pitchers that's ever played this game,'' Tigers outfielder Torii Hunter said. All-Stars on both sides clapped from the top of the dugout steps, and Rivera tipped his cap to the crowd. Then he went to work, retiring three straight hitters on 16 pitches - all cutters, as usual - before walking off to another ovation and receiving a hug from Detroit ace Justin Verlander. ''It was tough. It was spe-
cial,'' an emotional Rivera said. ''Seeing the fans sharing and both teams standing out of the dugout, managers, coaches, players - priceless.'' Exit, Sandman. Next stop, the Hall of Fame. The game's greatest reliever, quiet and humble by nature, addressed his AL teammates before they took the field. He made it quick, just like his outing. Most of them, actually. ''What I said was that I was honored and it was a privilege for me to play with all of them for so many years,'' Rivera said. The lengthy cheers provided a fitting tribute and the latest salute to Rivera, set to retire after this season. The 13-time All-Star is on something of a farewell tour, receiving creative gifts at each opposing ballpark he visits for the final time. He got a rocking chair built out of broken bats in Minnesota, a decorated surfboard and bottle of wine in Oakland. The last time he was at Citi Field, though, things didn't
go so well. He was honored by the Mets before a game in late May, threw out a ceremonial first ball - and then had his first blown save of the year. While other All-Stars wore flashy spikes, Rivera stayed with traditional black. No surprise for Mr. Steady. Rivera has never allowed an earned run in nine All-Star innings. The only older pitcher to appear in an AllStar game was 47-year-old Satchel Paige 60 years ago, according to STATS. ''First class all the way,'' Mets captain David Wright said. ''Well deserving for Mariano. I was on the top step clapping and cheering as loud as I could.'' Winning pitcher Chris Sale from the Chicago White Sox worked two perfect innings for the AL, which posted its third shutout and first since 1990 at Wrigley Field to trim the NL lead to 43-39-2 in All-Star games. The National League didn't manage a baserunner until Carlos Beltran's one-out single in the fourth. It was the ninth All-Star game in New York - most
for any city - and second in five years after a farewell to old Yankee Stadium in 2008. But the only other time the Mets hosted was during Shea Stadium's debut season in 1964, when Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Johnny Callison hit a game-ending homer in the ninth. This one gave the struggling Mets a chance to pack their cozy ballpark for one of the few times all season. Fans chanted Harvey's name during pregame introductions, and the 24-year-old sensation delivered with three strikeouts in two shutout innings. He walked off to a standing ovation and received a pat on the back from NL manager Bruce Bochy of the San Francisco Giants, the defending World Series champions. Harvey was the youngest All-Star starting pitcher since former Mets ace Dwight Gooden was 23 a quarter-century ago - and the first from the home team since Houston's Roger Clemens in 2004. Gooden cheered Harvey on from the stands.
jammers clicking continued from pg 1 byrd unsigned continued from pg 1 Danny Collins, who was drafted in the 13th round, has showcased power at the plate early in his professional career. Collins leads the team and NYPL in home runs (6) games played with 28 and slugging percentage (.562). He also leads the team in runs scored (21), extra base hits (9), and total bases (59). 17th round pick Justin Topa has had a solid start to his pro career, appearing in seven games for Jamestown. He currently owns a 1.93 ERA through 14 IP and has yielded just three earned runs while striking out 11 batters. The first year of the affiliation between the Jammers and Pirates has seen great pitching, a potent offense and a close-knit group of ball players. The Jammers are searching for their first playoff berth since earning a wild-card spot in 2010. Win-
ning a division title is also something that Jamestown has their sights set on. The last time the Jammers finished atop a division in the NYPL was the 1994 season when they put together a 4232 record as members of the Stedler Division. The Jammers open a six game home stand on Wednesday, July 17th vs. the Connecticut Tigers at 7:05 p.m. The Jammers will have a special promotion for every game during the home stand. Wednesday is Community Bank Night and Thursday is the Credit Unions Can Food Drive. Jammers single game tickets, group ticket packages and merchandise are all on sale.

one-year contract as a result of missing the deadline. Bills general manager Doug Whaley, in his first year, issued a statement after the deadline. ''We worked very hard to come to a long-term agreement with Jairus, but unfortunately, were unable to reach one before today's deadline,'' Whaley said. ''Our attention will now be focused on a one-year agreement with him and on training camp with our continued efforts to prepare our team for the upcoming season.'' Byrd very well could hold out
in training camp and sign for 2013 closer to the season. Byrd has played in 62 games since the Bills selected him in the 2009 second round, recording 18 interceptions and forcing 10 fumbles while defending 27 passes. The two-time Pro Bowler tied for the NFL lead with nine interceptions in 2009 as a rookie. A person familiar with the details of the negotiations said there were no talks Monday. The source spoke on the condition of anonymity due to the sensitive nature of contract discussions.

MLB Power Rankings (through july 17, 2013)
By Stefan Gestwicki Star Sports Editor
These weekly power rankings are based on more than just standings. They are the opinion of just one person and meant to facilitate discussion. Feel free to disagree with the rankings and send your thoughts to stefan.gestwicki@star-mediagroup.com. 1) St. Louis Cardinals 57-36 Marlins, Astros and Cubs made for a creampuff schedule before the break. 2) Boston Red Sox 58-39 For all the bullpen trouble talk, the Red Sox are 13-9 in one-run games in 2013. 3) Oakland Athletics 56-39 Taking two of three from Boston before the break set the tone for the second half. 4) Pittsburgh Pirates 56-37 The Buccos sent five players to the Mid-Summer Classic for the first time since 1972. 5) Tampa Bay Rays 55-41 They’re 12-2 in July, but it came against the Astros, White Sox, Twins and Astros again. 6) Texas Rangers 54-41 Someone besides Adrian Beltre and Nelson Cruz needs to heat up at the plate. 7) Cincinnati Reds 53-42 For some reason the Reds are flying under the radar despite being just 5 games back of Cards 8) Detroit Tigers 52-42 Max Scherzer finally lost. He’s a bum. Watch for the Tigers to run away in the second half. 9) Baltimore Orioles 53-43 The rotation could really use one more solid arm. Or one dynamic one — Cliff Lee? 10) Cleveland Indians 51-44 Cakewalk: Twins, Mariners and White Sox make up 9 of first 12 games out of the break. 11) Atlanta Braves 54-41 Their entire outfield is hurt, and that may not be a bad thing the way the trio has performed. 12) Los Angeles Dodgers 47-47 How good would Chase Utley look at second base wearing blue and white? It could happen. 13) New York Yankees 51-44 Awesome Mo-ment for Mariano Rivera at ASG. You can’t not like this guy. 14) Washington Nationals 48-47 Bryce Harper was the most impressive in the Derby. Those were lasers to all fields. 15) Arizona Diamondbacks 50-45 Giants, Cubs, Padres as the first three series after the break is pretty cushy. 16) Philadelphia Phillies 48-48 A -45 run differential is terrible, but at .500 they’re likely to stand pat at trade deadline. 17) Toronto Blue Jays 45-49 The 440 runs they’ve allowed is second only to the lowly Astros. That’s gotta change. 18) Colorado Rockies 46-50 For having three All-Star starters and a hot start, the record has to be disappointing. 19) Los Angeles Angels 44-49 A threegame losing streak came when they were so close to getting back to .500. 20) Kansas City Royals 43-49 The inconsistency is maddening and a five-game skid has the Royals 8 games back. 21) Seattle Mariners 43-52 Raul Ibanez and Kendrys Morales make for some interesting trade chips. 22) San Francisco Giants 43-51 Tim Lincecum’s 148 pitches in his no-no shouldn’t matter with the break providing rest. 23) San Diego Padres 42-54 Friars are probably wishing they had traded Chase Headley (.229/7/31) last year. 24) Chicago Cubs 42-51 The best news from this season is that Wrigley Field is finally due for a facelift. 25) New York Mets 41-50 Mets hosted a fine All-Star Game. No one could help that it was boring as could be. 26) Milwaukee Brewers 38-56 Bad news for Braun that PED suspensions could come at beginning of next season. 27) Minnesota Twins 39-53 Remember when this franchise was always competitive with a microscopic payroll? 28) Chicago White Sox 37-55 The MidWest has some terrible teams but CWS have to be the worst of the bunch. 29) Miami Marlins 35-58 Believe it or not the Marlins are 22-17 since falling to a season-worst 13-41 in late May. 30) Houston Astros 33-61 ‘Stros are the only team that ESPN has listed with a 0.0 percent chance at the playoffs.
