The Weekly Word
POWER FROM ON HIGH, CONTINUED
Rev. Timothy Stahlman Family Church Jamestown fcjamestown.org
Pentecost originated in the Old Testament as a festival to celebrate the harvest of wheat. That
helps us understand why God chose to pour out the Holy Spirit on that day: It is an endowment of power to bring in a harvest of souls. There is much confusion about the events of that day as recorded in the 2nd chapter of Acts. Acts 2:1, 4 says, "And when the day of Pentecost was fully come... they were all filled with Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance." So many Christians ignore this verse and do not rightfully divide this chapter of scripture because they get nervous about the "tongues business."
On the subject of tongues I believe that there is a ditch on both sides of the road. The first ditch that people fall into is by believing that tongues aren't for today and it was only a first century doctrine. This includes believing that tongues "ceased" and trying to use 1 Corinthians 13:8 to verify that claim. That is foolish. The ditch on the other side of the road is to believe that a person must speak in tongues to be saved. This ditch also includes the excesses that are found in many Pentecostal churches when a church service on a Sunday morning is filled with
the entire congregation speaking in tongues. 1 Corinthians 14:23 says, "If therefore the WHOLE CHURCH comes together into one place and all speak with tongues and there come in those that are UNLEARNED or UNBELIEVERS, will they not say you are mad?" When a church gets into excess and becomes bent on building their services around tongues they will miss an opportunity to reach the lost and teach the unlearned. But look what 1 Corinthians 14:39 says, "Wherefore, covet to prophesy and DO NOT FORBID SPEAKING IN TONGUES." Obvi-
ously the Bible is telling us that there are boundaries when understanding tongues. So what is "tongues" and what does it have to do with the Holy Spirit? We know that it must be connected to the filling of the Holy Spirit because of Acts 2:4, "And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance." When it says, "...as THE SPIRIT GAVE THEM UTTERANCE" that means that they couldn't have gotten this experience from anywhere else. So you could say that tongues is an utterance from the Holy
Spirit. Acts 10:44-46 says, "While Peter yet spoke these words the Holy Spirit fell on them which heard the Word. And the Jewish believers were astonished... because that on Gentiles also was poured out the GIFT of the Holy Spirit. For they heard them SPEAK WITH TONGUES and magnify God." How did the Jews know that these people got filled? They heard them speak with tongues. So what was tongues, by definition, to these people? It was the initial evidence of receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit. However, it shouldn't be the only evidence!

Red Cross Issues Emergency Call For Donations Contributed Article American Red Cross
The American Red Cross has issued an emergency call for blood and platelets, urging all eligible donors to give now to replenish an extremely low summer blood supply. Blood donations have fallen short of hospital needs for the past few months, resulting in about 39,000 fewer donations than what’s needed, as well as a significant draw down of the overall Red Cross blood supply. In addition, the Independence Day holiday may have caused many regular donors to postpone donations due to vacation plans. A recent Red Cross poll revealed that more than 75 percent of donors surveyed indicated vacation plans this summer, many of them occurring the weeks before and after July 4. “Right now, blood products are being distributed to hospitals faster than donations are coming in, which is why we are making this emergency request for donations,” said Patty Corvaia, communications manager of the New York-Penn Blood Services Region. “Donations are urgently needed now to meet the needs of hospital patients in the coming days and weeks. If you’ve thought about giving blood and helping to save lives, now is the time to do it. It’s the blood donations on the shelves that help save lives when an emergency occurs.” How to Help To schedule an appointment to donate, use the free Blood Donor App, visit redcrossblood.org or call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767). The Red Cross is extending hours at many donation sites to allow for more donors to make an appointment to give. Donation appointments and completion of a RapidPass online health history questionnaire are encouraged to avoid longer wait times. Donors
with all blood types are needed. Those unable to give can still help by encouraging others to give through a SleevesUp virtual blood drive at redcrossblood.org/sleevesup, giving of their time through volunteerism or making a financial donation to support Red Cross humanitarian work across the country and around the world. Who Blood Donations Help Every two seconds in the United States blood and platelets are needed to respond to patient emergencies, including accident and burn victims, heart surgery and organ transplant procedures, and patients receiving treatment for leukemia, cancer or sickle cell disease. The Red Cross must collect approximately 14,000 blood and platelet donations every day for patients at about 2,600 hospitals and transfusion centers nationwide. Because of generous donors, the Red Cross is able to provide blood products to patients like 11-year-old Mae Rainey, who needs regular blood transfusions as part of her treatment for a blood disorder. “I am very grateful for the opportunities that the Red Cross has given us to get her to her healthiest state,” said Caleb Rainey, Mae’s older brother. Watch Mae’s story to learn how blood donations can make a lifesaving difference. About the American Red Cross The American Red Cross shelters, feeds and provides emotional support to victims of disasters; supplies about 40 percent of the nation’s blood; teaches skills that save lives; provides international humanitarian aid; and supports military members and their families. The Red Cross is a not-for-profit organization that depends on volunteers and the generosity of the American public to perform its mission.

Opera House Hosting Big Band Ca$h Ba$h Fundraiser Contributed Article Fredonia Opera House
The 1891 Fredonia Opera House is planning “a swingin’ good time” at the theatre as part of its annual gala fund-raiser on Sun., July 24, at 4 p.m. This year’s event, the Big Band Ca$h Ba$h, will feature entertainment, wine and hors d’oeuvres and a wide variety of silent auction items – along with a chance at winning one of five cash prizes. “This year’s event is a bit different from our past fund-raisers,” notes Opera House Executive Director Rick Davis. “Not only is it being held at the Opera House, but it also offers five lucky attendees the possibility of leaving with more money in their pockets than they had when they came in!” The event includes a concert by the Dave Golando Big Band, well-known for performing in a variety of area outdoor festivals and area summer series, wine and a variety of light hors d’oeuvres catered by Chef Dave “Duper” Winchell, and the chance to bid on more than 40 silent auction items! Plus, attendees’ admission tickets enter them into the drawing, at the end of the night, for one of five cash prizes … currently ranging from $100 to $1,500! “Only 300 tickets are being sold, meaning a one in 300 chance to win! And no tickets will be sold at the door,” says Davis. He adds that if not all tickets are sold, the amount of the cash prizes may be adjusted. “So, we need everyone to spread the word and bring along a friend or neighbor – or two – and to get your tickets in advance in order to ensure the cash prize amounts are maximized!” A large variety of silent auction and Chinese auction items with a wide range of starting bids will be available to be bid upon throughout the evening. The items, which have been donated by area supporters and businesses, include: A pair of tickets to a Buffalo Bills game and autographed photos of Bills players Ron Darby & Eric Wood; A wine and painting party with artist Susan Mackay; A custom pen & ink drawing of your home by Vermont artist Gary Eckhart; A walk-on role in the Chautauqua Regional Youth Ballet’s production of The Nutcracker this December at the Reg Lenna Center for the Arts; Day passes to Lily Dale Assembly and 30-minute private readings from mediums Greg Kehn and Margaret Ferris; A basket of swag and tickets to one of this year’s Lucy Fest headliner performances (Trevor Noah, Brian Regan or Lewis Black) as well as admission to the Lucy-Desi Museum; CONTINUED ON PAGE 14

5 Essential Things to Know Before Visiting a National Park this Summer Contributed Article StatePoint
This year, the National Park Service celebrates 100 years of encouraging adventure and preserving the great outdoors, making it the perfect time to get out and explore. The untouched wonders, not to mention the clear skies and sunny days of summer, make a beautiful backdrop for the all-American family road trip. And while grand adventure awaits, so does the unexpected. Before you lace up your hiking boots and pack up the car, take some time to plan ahead. Prepare for the Unexpected As thrilling as it is to spot wildlife, the last thing you’d like to encounter after a long hike is a car that’s been ransacked or damaged by Mother Nature’s hungry creatures. Store food in a bear canister or sealed plastic bag and hang
it in a tree rather than storing in your car. This makes the scent harder for animals to detect. For extra protection when leaving your vehicle, keep unattended cars shielded with tarps and bungee cords. At some national parks, vultures love to pick at the rubber around windshields, sunroofs and windshield wipers. Check Vehicle Vitals Ensure your vehicle is in tiptop shape. At the least, tires should have ample tread; tire pressure set at the correct level for your load; oil changed; and your spare tire inflated. If taking to the road in an RV, routine maintenance is necessary to avoid mishaps. Conduct a walk-around, pre-departure check. Also, know its exact size so you can quickly determine where you’ll be able to park. You may need to get familiar with “RV boondocking,” or camping off-grid, since many parks won’t have full-hook-
ups. You’ll need to understand how your RV works when it isn’t connected -- then practice extreme water conservation and propane use. Take this opportunity to review your auto insurance policy to make sure you’re protected in case of unexpected incidents or accidents. Some insurance companies, like Erie Insurance, even go beyond standard coverage to provide extra features covering things like windshields, wipers and airbags. Look for a Sign Obey all traffic signs. Most national park roads have a speed limit of 45 miles per hour or less. While this may seem slow, keep in mind this exists to protect you and surrounding wildlife. In addition to potential vehicle damage or possibly harming an unsuspecting victim, speeding can result in a federal ticket or even land you in federal court. Keep an eye out for falling rock or mudslide warning signs, too.
Steer Clear of Bad Weather Each national park lists road closures due to weather, construction or damage to help you plan ahead and stay safe. And don’t think you’re out of the woods just because it’s summertime. There may not be snow and ice covering the roads, but there could be flooding or forest fires, among other hazards. Stow a Survival Kit Emergency items like a flashlight, first-aid kit, batteries, jumper cables, blankets, water and snacks are musts. Pack extra protection like sunscreen and portable chargers and keep a GPS device like a phone handy for added security. Once your car is in prime condition and you’re prepared, pack your bags and buckle up. You’ll be able to explore the great outdoors worry-free and take in the bountiful sights our country and its national parks have to offer -- from sea to shining sea.

Italians are famous for their seamless entertaining style: good food, wine and conversation. With Italy’s variety of light cuisine options, meals can be packed with summer vegetables, fresh seafood, olive oil and crisp white wines. Here are some helpful suggestions for your next summer celebration from Roberto Pighin, owner of Fernando Pighin & Figli Winery. Simply Elegant Meals Grilling is the most social and simple cooking method during the summer. Enjoy the sunshine with friends while grilling calamari or a whole fresh fish, such as trout or Arctic char with olive oil, garlic and fresh herbs. Main entrees can be appreciated with a side of pasta and vegetables. Grill tomatoes, squash and peppers for a flavorful side dish. Fresh basil is plentiful in summer, so make the most of it with a pesto pasta sauce. If you are more classic, toss your pasta with garden-fresh garlic and olive oil.

Delicious Tips for Outdoor Summer Entertaining, Italian Style! Crisp White Wines In the hot summer weather, consider a versatile bottle of white wine that will taste great with each course and refresh guests while sitting poolside or in the backyard. “When preparing for a summer gathering, pair meals with medium-bodied white wines that have fruity aromas and bright acidity, explained Pighin, whose winery produces high quality products that are easy-drinking in warm weather. A Pinot Grigio Collio, the finest area of Pinot Grigio production within the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region of Italy, would be a great match for any alfresco event. The wine has citrus notes and white fruit on the nose and palate. It has lively acidity with a clean, fresh finish. Wines like this are ideal with fish dishes, risotto or grilled chicken with lemon. Thoughtful Appetizers For starters, take advantage of in-season produce, such as caprese salad. Right-off-the-vine tomatoes, fragrant basil and fresh mozzarella are refreshing ways to whet

appetites. Certain light cheeses, such as fontal, gruyere, parmigiano reggiano, pair well with crisp white wines. A tasty alternative is a seafood platter or shrimp cocktail. Pighin shared an innovative twist on the classic shrimp cocktail that will be sure to please: Shrimp and Mango Mint Cocktail. Ingredients: • 12 fresh jumbo shrimp
• Ripe mango • 2 Tbsp. of apple cider vinegar • 5 fresh mint leaves • Fresh peeled ginger • 1/2 gallon of water • 1 large carrot • 2-3 celery stalk • 1/2 white onion Mango Mint Topping: • Combine into a mixer: peeled mango, apple cider vinegar, 3 fresh mint leaves, peeled ginger
• Mix until creamy and refrigerate for 2 hours. Cooking Instructions: • Wash and devein shrimp in fresh water. • Boil 1/2 gallon of water in a deep pot with sliced carrots, celery, half an onion and a pinch of sea salt for 15 minutes. • Add shrimp to the pot to boil for 4 minutes and drain. • Let cool. • Pile shrimp into mar-
tini glasses and top with mango-mint topping, garnish with remaining mint leaves and pieces of mango. Serve with a glass Pighin & Figili Pinot Grigio Collio D.O.C. Recipe serves four. After this meal, your guests will be light on their feet with food and wine fit for the season.

How Foods Can Help Heal Common Ailments Contributed Article StatePoint
When you’re not feeling well, conventional wisdom says you should reach for over-the-counter or prescription remedies. But many experts point out that foods have healing properties that can be complementary in helping to treat common ailments and prevent illness. “The concept of using food as medicine isn’t a new one; however, the evolution of society and science has moved us further from this concept,” says Grand Master Nan Lu, OMD, one of the country’s foremost teachers and practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and author of the new book “Digesting the Universe: A Revolutionary Framework for Healthy Metabolism Function.” “In my view, we are missing some of the most powerful and supportive steps we can take to remain well and prevent disease and illness.” Lu says the teachings of TCM can help patients deal with the root cause of their problems, rather than just eliminate the symptoms. While complex, he is offering a few quick insights into the subject of food as medicine. • Nutritionists today base their work on the physical and chemical properties of food alone, but this is just half the picture. “There are many immaterial things contained within food as well,” says Lu, who cites Qi, or vital energy, as a key aspect of food you can’t see • The “right” foods won’t necessarily protect your health by virtue of their properties alone. Good organ function is also necessary for your body to process and digest what you eat. However, foods can help restore balance to an

ailing organ system. • Listen to your body, not cultural beliefs about what is good or bad for you. Lu offers the example of a woman craving sugar or salt during her menstrual cycle. “Assuming she listens to the wisdom of her body and satisfies her craving, she’ll have some chocolate or eat some potato chips. This woman is doing something natural.” • You may have heard of the adage,
“you are what you eat.” Lu says to also consider the phrase, “you are what you think,” and avoid a steady diet of negative emotions, which you then must digest and process. Your thoughts impact your body and health, he says. • The next time your stomach is upset, consider reaching for something natural. Ginger can be eaten or used topically to deal with stomach discomfort, reduce inflammation and even lower
pain from arthritis. More information about TCM and “Digesting the Universe” can be found at tcmworld.org. While modern science has offered us groundbreaking medications and treatments, traditional healing systems can help patients recognize the root cause of physical conditions for a healthier, more balanced life.

By Katy Wise Contributing Writer
Every summer I hear jokes about how parents are getting their kids back for the next couple of months, and questions about how to keep kids from being bored over their vacation. It's one of those 'you'll understand when you're older,' things, and although I don't recall complaining of boredom during the summer, I sometimes wish I could be as carefree as our kids are. There are times when I wonder how to occupy them from time to time, especially with their age differences, and how young they still are. Their ages still require much supervision (basically 24/7) so these have to be things that can sometimes entertain mommy too! Here are some of our tried and true 'go-to' activities during the warm summer months. If you have some to share that did not make this list, we would love to hear them! 1. Go outside. Really, it's that simple. Here in Western New York, we spend about three months enjoying the sunshine, and the other nine hoping that it will come back. Kids love being outside. In the midst of all the various activities that you plan for summer, make sure you allow them some time to just plain be outside in nature. 2. Walk or ride. One of our favorite things is going for a walk together. In our area we are fortunate enough to have several beautiful places to walk. We live close to downtown, so every Saturday we take a walk to the Farmers' Market and get some fresh produce and eggs for the week. Andrew, who's 3, knows that Saturday morning means we get to go to the 'piggy market,' and he gets all kinds of excited to leave after breakfast. The piggy market is in reference to 'this little piggy,' of course. Now for the ride portion. Our five-year-old Joshua is currently working on his bike skills, so his favorite activities include taking a trip to the parking lots of SUNY Fredonia to test out his steering. Don't forget about all of our local playgrounds and the lake! These are perfect spots for a picnic after a morning of play or swim. 3. Water! I know the lake was mentioned above, but don't underestimate 20 minutes with a hose and sprinkler.
EIGHT WEEKS OF SUMMER 21
Fun in the Sun
Kids and water are practically soul mates. One of the best things about kids is that they don't need nearly as much as we think they do to be happy. A pool is great, but so is a bucket. Let them use their imaginations and learn to be resourceful. 4. Go picking! Another fantastic quality of the area we live in is that we are surrounded by local farms, with plenty of opportunities to get out and do some harvesting for yourself. Find a local blueberry or raspberry patch and have some fun that you can eat later! This is a great opportunity to teach kids about healthy food and where it really comes from. 5. Enjoy your kids. Yes, this is clichĂŠ, and it probably always will be. But your kids won't always be kids. Don't let yourself fall in the trap of being stressed over everything that needs to be done. The laundry will still be there when you get home from the beach. The dishes aren't going anywhere, even if they start to smell a little. Yuck, I know. Family is more important, though. If it helps you, go buy some paper plates and juice boxes to ease up on your time spent cleaning up the kitchen this summer. Let them stay up a little bit late. Let them see the stars, catch lightning bugs and make some s'mores. They'll sleep in the next morning and then you can take care of those dishes! As always, thanks for reading! Wishing you a happy, fun, and safe summer from HBK!

Third Street, Suites 3 & 4 Sprinchorn Building, Jamestown from 3:00-5:00 p.m. on, July 27, August 3, 17, 24, 31 and September 7. Stay up to date on the newest and most effective parenting techniques. Join the class and master the art of parenting. The Chautauqua Alcoholism & Substance Abuse Council (CASAC) is offering a free parenting class – “Active Parenting Now” Fourth Edition from Active Parenting Publishers, which is evidence based program. The program is a six-session, 2-hour video & discussion program. The program considers child development and parenting in terms of the age/stage of the child within the perspective of varied nuclear families and vignettes representative of diverse cultures. Through this program, we provide parents with skills that will help them develop cooperation, responsibility and self-esteem in their children. “Active Parenting Now” addresses how parents can raise children who are prepared to meet the challenges of their teen years, resist negative peer pressure and thrive in the 21st century. This program includes the workings of the developing child/adolescent brain; handling anger; what parents can do to help their child succeed in school (7 Smart Strategies) and the importance of contributing to the family via chores. Parents learn positive, non-violent discipline techniques so they can avoid power struggles. The basis for the Parenting program is to create an environment and an experience that permits parents to evaluate their own beliefs and to consciously make personal changes and to do it in a non-threatening confidence building way. Space is limited so register soon. To take advantage of this opportunity, contact Kathleen Colby at 664-3608. Everyone can benefit from enhanced parental skills to be an effective parent in today’s world.

There are an awful lot of people that consider the One Ball Tournament their favorite event of the entire year. Hundreds of people gather every year at Willis Hale Town Park to eat, drink, play Wiffeball© and enjoy each other’s company. Yet the reason they’re all there is of utmost importance. “This is like Christmas morning for me,” tournament director Ben Lindquist said. “This is what I live for. The One Ball Foundation, this tournament and raising awareness for testicular cancer is what it’s all about.” This year was the 4th Annual One Ball Tournament. Like previous years, the event kicked off with an information session. Lindquist, himself a testicular cancer survivor, shared his own story with everyone. He stressed the importance of self-exams
and going to the doctor. Perhaps most importantly, it’s reiterated that testicular cancer can affect men of any age. “I got very emotional sharing a story this year,” Lindquist admitted. “The foundation that we gave to the first two years, Testicular Cancer Awareness Foundation out of Colorado, was founded by Kim Jones. Her son Jordan Jones was diagnosed in 2007 with Stage Four testicular cancer at the age of 13. A year ago, he was diagnosed with late-stage recurrence. They found over 100 tumors in his lungs. Unfortunately, Jordan passed on June 8 of this year. “It was an emotional time explaining to everyone how important it is to go to the doctor and get check out,” he continued. “This is a disease that takes lives, but if you detect it early there’s a 98 percent cure rate. It can affect anyone at any age. It’s the leading cause of cancer in men ages 15-35. I shared a story of a 10-month CONTINUED ON PAGE 30

CHAUTAUQUA STAR FRIDAY, JULY 08, 2016
COMMENTARY, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 25 No. 50: David Robinson, NBA — “The Admiral” is perhaps the most impressive physical specimen in NBA history. He’s a product of the United States Naval Academy, a 10-time All Star, a two-time NBA champion, an NBA MVP and a Hall of Famer. He averaged 21.1 points, 10.6 rebounds and 3.0 blocks per game over his career. He averaged a ludicrous 4.5 blocks per game in the 1991-92 season. In the running: Mike Singletary, NFL — Do yourself a favor and remember the player, not the coach. As a player Singletary was a key member of the 1980’s Bears defenses. No. 51: Randy Johnson, MLB — This one is debatable as there’s another Chicago Bear that might have something to say about this. For my money, I’ll take the 6’10” flamethrower. “The Big Unit” had six seasons of at least 300 strikeouts and has the second most K’s of all time. He won 303 games and five Cy Young Awards, including four straight from 1999-2002. In the running: Dick Butkus, NFL — There’s a reason that the top collegiate linebacker is awarded the Dick Butkus Award. He played nine seasons for the Bears and made eight Pro Bowls. Ichiro Suzuki, MLB — He has the most hits in a single season in MLB history. He’s an icon. No. 52: Ray Lewis, NFL — Love him or hate him, if you watched a “History of the NFL” documentary, there would absolutely be a clip of Ray Lewis’ dance. He won a pair of Super Bowls and also collected two AP Defensive Player of the Year awards. He’s one of the greatest linebackers ever. In the running: C.C. Sabathia, MLB — Now on the downside of his career, it’s easy to forget just how good Sabathia was in his prime. He won 59 games over three seasons from 2009-2011. No. 53: Don Drysdale, MLB — The Brooklyn/Los Angeles Dodgers have had some outstanding pitchers in their history, but few have been better than Drysdale. He won 25 games in 1962 and 23 in 1965. He led the league in strikeouts three times and won the 1962 Cy Young Award. He was an eight-time All Star and finished his career with a 2.95 ERA. In the running: Bobby Abreu, MLB — I’m just as surprised as you are. Abreu had an awesome career, combing power and speed like few others in his era. He clubbed 288 home runs and stole 400 bases over his 18-year career. No. 54: Brian Urlacher, NFL — Few defensive players in NFL history have been as valuable to an organization as Urlacher was to the Bears. He won the 2005 AP Defensive Player of the Year and was named to the First Team All-2000’s Team. Playing middle linebacker doesn’t allow for a ton of stat compiling, but you’d be hard pressed to find any football fan that doesn’t think of Urlacher when they see No. 54. In the running: Rich “Goose” Gossage, MLB — He pitched for 22 seasons, saving over 300 games while also collecting 124 wins. He made the All-Star Team nine times. No. 55: Larry Murphy, NHL — Murphy is the fifth-highest scoring defenseman in NHL history with 287 goals, 929 assists and 1,216 points. He won four Stanley Cups (two with Pittsburgh and two with Detroit). In a neat stat, he ranks fourth all time by being on the ice for 2,774 goals during his career. In the running: Orel Hershiser, MLB — No pitcher past nor present has ever matched Hershiser’s record of 59 consecutive scoreless innings. He wasn’t a flash in the pan, however, having won 23 games in 1988 en route to a Cy Young Award. He won 204 games in his career while striking out over 2,000 batters. No. 56: Lawrence Taylor, NFL — Perhaps the game’s all-time most unstoppable force, Taylor has since gotten into legal trouble, but that doesn’t take away his three AP NFL Defensive Player of the Year awards, two Super Bowl rings, 10 Pro Bowl appearances or 132.5 career sacks. Do yourself a favor and go watch some of his highlights. Wow. In the running: Sergei Zubov, NHL — Certainly one of the better defensemen during his time in the league, Zubov made three straight All-Star Games from 1998-2000 and won Stanley Cups in both 1994 (Rangers) and 1999 (Stars). No. 57: Francisco Rodriguez, MLB — For those of us who watched it, we’ll never forget when K-Rod burst onto the scene as a 20-year old reliever that helped the Angels win the 2002 World Series. Since then, he’s saved 408 games, including a single-season record 62 in 2008. He’s still closing the door for the Tigers at the age of 34. In the running: Clay Matthews, Jr., NFL — Wait. Isn’t Clay Matthews No. CONTINUED ON PAGE 27

Hiland Wins Woody Keyser Memorial
52? Well, the Green Bay Packers linebacker is. This is that Clay’s father and longtime Cleveland Brown. He amassed over 1,500 tackles during his long career. Johan Santana, MLB — Mets fans will remember him as the first player in franchise history to throw a no-hitter. Everyone else will remember him as simply one of the most dominant pitchers of the 2000’s and two-time Cy Young Award winner. No. 58: Jack Lambert, NFL — Here’s yet another outstanding linebacker from a powerhouse franchise. Lambert won four Super Bowls in his 11 seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers. He picked off 28 passes during his career while also nabbing the 1976 AP Defensive Player of the Year award. In the running: Kris Letang, NHL — Another Pittsburgh sports icon, Letang has been a fan favorite in helping the Penguins to Stanley Cups in both 2009 and 2016. Jonathan Papelbon, MLB — He saved at least 30 games in eight of nine seasons and is on pace for that many in 2016. He has 365 saves, which ranks third among active players (Francisco Rodriguez, Joe Nathan). No. 59: Jack Ham, NFL — Playing alongside Lambert in those four Super Bowls was Ham, who is enshrined in the Hall of Fame after a career that included 32 interceptions and eight Pro Bowls. Stats and tackles were not official statistics during his career, so it’s hard Contributed Article to compare Ham (and Lambert for that matter) to Steve Keyser modern day players. Still, four Super Bowls. Enough said. In the running: None. Very few established players have worn No. 59 it seems.

Then we can go out and have fun.” That fun is shared across two different divisions — the Competitive Division and the “We’re Here for the Party” Division. This year there were eight teams in the Competitive Division and 16 in the Party Division. Games were played across six separate fields with four teams playing round robin on their field. That guarantees every team at least three games. New to this year’s event was a chicken barbecue hosted by the Veterans of Modern Warfare. “It’s a way to draw in the general public,” Lindquist explained. “People go and support fundraising events all the time so we added that in hopes that we can get people to show up and see what this is all about. We want to show people that it’s a great event for a great cause. It’s all about getting the word out about testicular cancer.” As earlier noted, the tournament used to donate proceeds to Testicular Cancer Awareness Foundation. Since then, however, the tournament has evolved into its own 501c3 nonprofit organization — The One Ball Foundation. “Our mission is to raise awareness about testicular cancer and help support those in treatment,” Lindquist noted. “All the funds stay right here in Western New York. We work with Western New York Urology Asso-
Olean. That tournament raised money for the Olean Little League and youth softball programs. “What we’re trying to do is take this on the road much like the Gus Macker basketball tournament travels around to communities across the nation as fundraisers for different organizations,” Lindquist said. “We want to do that with the One Ball Tournament. That was one more step towards this becoming a regional or even nationally-known organization.” In the Competitive Division, The One Hitters defeated Off In The Woods, 11-5, in the championship game. Members of The One Hitters were Ryan Johnson, Dave Klemens, Sam Zembardo and Jon Anthony. In the “We’re Here For The Party” Division, 5 For Spearing downed Pinch N Roll, 8-5, in the finals.

THE FIRST (AND SECOND) 18-HOLE ROUND OF THE YEAR By Stefan Gestwicki Star Sports Editor
Do you prefer to ride or walk when you golf? Some people really feel strongly one way or the other. I’d honestly like to hear your thoughts on the topic. Please email me. Until this year, I walked virtually every round of my career. I like to feel like I got some exercise when I get back in my truck. I enjoy that time between shots to think about what I need to do. It reached the point where if I rode, I played like garbage because I was playing too fast (or something). This year, however, I’ve been riding a lot more and I’ve been loving it. Perhaps the best part of riding is that Bryan and I can get a nine-hole round played in about an hour and a half. For some reason, it took us two months to realize that we should just keep on playing after nine holes. So we did. Bryan, Nick and I went to Hillview Golf Course in Fredonia on Thursday morning. I didn’t play particularly well, sadly. That’s actually a funny statement looking at it because (spoiler alert) I actually shot a 44-43-87, but it felt like I left so many strokes out there. That score would have thrilled me two months ago, but I’ve really made some strides since then. My putting game wasn’t great. I spend so many strokes hitting the ball one inch because I just couldn’t make that first putt. Whether it’s a 300-yard drive or a one-inch putt, it counts as one stroke. That statement proves the importance of the short game. Bryan also had a realization of improvement during this front nine. He kept saying how terrible he was playing. He was hitting more stray shots and was getting frustrated. Then we added up the score and he shot a 49, which tied for his best round of the year at Hillview. Why is that? Are we expecting too much out of ourselves? What is going to happen if/when we actually feel like we play well? Will I break 40? I sure hope so. Nick has shown incredibly improvement over the past several weeks. He’s more comfortable now that he was his own clubs and has gone to the driving range a few times. What has really helped
his score is some confidence on the green. It’s safe to say (and he would certainly agree) that he had zero touch with the putter. He was blasting the ball right past the cup every time. Then he’d come right back and blast the ball back to where he started. Those times are gone. He hasn’t dropped any long ones yet, but he’s at least puting himself into position to two-putt instead of…five-putt. After that front nine, Nick had to get to work (darn you, second shift), but Bryan and I wanted to keep hitting them. So we did. There wasn’t much to write about in that back nine. Bryan shot yet another 49 to give him a 49-49-98 while I completed my 87. It’s hard to say if that’s good or not because we never play 18. Hopefully that’ll change in the next few months. A few days later, my other cousin (and Nick’s brother) Barry was in town from Pittsburgh. He’s golfed once ever, but we got him out there to play. The four of us went to Cassadaga Country Club with a great deal of excitement. Well...we stunk. I mean, we really, really stunk. That whole course is probably still awash with the odor of our failure. Don’t get me wrong. We had a blast. The course was simply beautiful. I’m not sure how the greens were so nice with the total lack of rain we’ve had, but kudos to Steve and his crew up there. The grand total of good shots off of my clubs was zero. I was trying to give Barry some pointers and advice that helped me when I first started, but there’s no way he could have taken me seriously after watching me whack the ball all over the place. Gosh it was bad. After nine holes, we decided we weren’t done yet. I wanted to show Barry another course so we went back to Hillview. Bryan actually had responsibilities (pfffttt), but Nick and Barry were geared up for more golf. To put it mildly, this round went much better. In fact, on the second hole I nailed a 35-foot birdie putt. Gosh that felt good. I wish I could bottle that feeling because there’s nothing like it. The right speed. The right line. The sound of the ball hitting the bottom of the cup. That happens too rarely. But wait, it happened just seven holes later on No. 9. After a pretty awful shot off the tee, my
approach shot wasn’t too great either but at least stayed on the green. The ninth green isn’t the easiest to putt on, but good gravy was this putt perfect. It may not have been the most well-deserved par, but it was a ‘3’ on the scorecard after that putt dropped. What was really fun about that ‘back nine’ was watching Barry improve dramatically. He started getting the ball off the ground with his irons. He started finding that touch with the wedges. He dropped a few putts. It was just a blast seeing him figure some stuff out. What’s your approach when playing with a brand new golfer? I basically let Barry be comfortable for the most part. Do you try to stop bad habits before they start? Do you try not to inundate them with too much information? I honestly don’t know what the right thing to do is. We tried to help him with very basic things like grip and where to line up his feet, etc., but golf is such a game of muscle memory. I also covered the Bryan Brothers trick shot show at Shorewood Country Club. Be sure to check out my story on that. That was a ton of fun. Check out their YouTube videos if nothing else. As always, golf is great. Go get some. Stefan Gestwicki is the sports editor of the Chautauqua Star. Comments on this article or any other can be sent to stefang@starmg.co.

up the youngsters. Two of them were even successful in making contact, earning themselves a prize out of the golf bags of the brothers. “It can be a big spark to the ‘golf is cool’ movement,” Smith noted. “Golf needs to get to that laid back stuff. Kids can really relate to these guys. They’re young and energetic and fun. They have that cool persona about them. Maybe that sparks a kid’s interest in golf.” Both of the brothers will compete in the LECOM Health Challenge at Peek’n Peak this week. Wes, of course, is the No. 1 player on the Web.com Tour. George, however, was given a sponsor exemption to play in the event. “I was looking at tournaments on the schedule and giving tournament directors a call,” George explained. “I reached out and gave them my story. They extended an invitation and I couldn’t be more excited to be here.”
As one might expect, the brothers have a friendly rivalry on the golf course. “I want to see George do great, but at the end of the day I hope my score is one shot better,” Wes said. “I hope he feels the same thing about me.” “It’s fun when we get to compete against each other,” George agreed. “It’s nothing new to us, but it’s fun when we get to tee it up together and see who comes out on top. I’m pulling for him. I want him to play well, but I want to play better.” The event included food, drink, prizes and music provided by DJ Joe Gould. “We’re trying to make this a fun atmosphere,” Smith said. “It’s a really unique opportunity.” Be sure to check out next week’s edition of the Chautauqua Star for more information about the LECOM Health Challenge. Better yet, head up to Peek’n Peak and check out the action for yourself.
