The Weekly Word

THE "RELEVANT" CHURCH

Rev. Timothy Stahlman Family Church Jamestown fcjamestown.org

There is a movement among churches to make Christianity more "relevant" to our society. This movement is dangerous. Everywhere we look we see churches that are

adopting more of the world's culture and bringing it into the church. Churches have to add laser lights, smoke machines, and strobes to attract new members. There is always a danger when man leans upon the arm of the flesh to accomplish the works of God. And what's even worse is that the message is being compromised to make people feel more comfortable. This generation is not hearing messages about salvation, judgment, the Holy Spirit, tithing, and holiness. The "relevant" church is over stimulating man's flesh and mind without feeding his spirit. This generation is following demonic devices that would attempt to make God more like man. But here is the truth: Jesus did not come to make God more like man;

He came to make man more like God. Man's Creator cannot be more relevant. He is ever present upon their heart and conscience. Basically, this new age church is telling God, "You need a makeover; let us help you with that. Your power to save, heal, deliver, and to do the miraculous is not working. We know how to redeem your image." This generation has the gall to redeem God? This new generation is very rebellious. The young people have been inspired by godless universities and media to "redefine" the new era. They have been taught to throw away the teachings of their elders. Young people have not been parented correctly and now they don't know how to submit and learn from the older generations. This generation is filled

with people who are void of a solid work ethic. They would rather riot and protest than work. They are taught to lobby the government for handouts. Look at the "Occupy Wall Street" movement. It represents the driving force behind this generation that says, "Complain until you get your way." My parents and grandparents taught me, "God rewards hard work." The spirit of this rebellious generation is trying to get into the church. There is a push to "redefine" God. Church leaders are being influenced by the younger generation to make "relevant" changes within the church. We shouldn't try to learn from a generation who knows nothing about the Word of God or the move of the Holy Spirit. It is the older generations who should

be teaching the younger. We are getting out of Biblical order. We are distracted. We need to go back and sit at the feet of great people of God who spent much time in His presence. We need people who will remind us that it will be God's power that will draw people to His church. We need people that will stand and preach with authority and then allow the Holy Spirit to work with us confirming His Word with signs following. Jesus didn't change the world with laser lights and smoke machines. He changed the world with demonstrations of God's Word, Spirit, and Love. Remember this: The more man puts on a show, the less God puts on a show.

Sally Catalano, one of the coordinators, notes that the group of community members who have worked on the project have enjoyed putting the event together over the years. “We have just as much fun as the participants.” she says. “Our presentation has been compared favorably to other, much larger Haunted Houses in bigger communities.” Organizers are certain that everyone who attends will be impressed. Admission to the Haunted Mill is $3 per person.

All proceeds will be donated to Hospice Chautauqua County. Catalano says that the group chose Hospice as the recipient because they feel that most everyone has been positively impacted

by the services of Hospice in one way or another and they would like support the organization.

A $1,000 grant from Holt Appraisals and a $500 grant from the Northern Chautauqua Community Foundation provided essential local funding required to apply for the State grant. “We are very grateful to Holt Appraisals and the Northern Chautauqua Community Foundation for providing grants which enabled CWC to apply for these Conservation Partnership funds. We also thank Assemblyman Andy Goodell, State Senator Cathy Young and Chautauqua Town Supervisor Don Emhardt for their support of the project,” said John Jablonski III, CWC executive director. Mr. Jablonski added, “CWC member Jay Stratton of Westfield generously donated this scenic property to the CWC to protect in perpetuity and for the public to responsibly enjoy. This property exemplifies the types of stream corridor properties CWC seeks to conserve to protect the water quality of the streams, lakes and drinking water supplies of Chautauqua County.” This project conserves 22 acres of forest land including 2,153 feet of creek bank (0.4 mile). The project, which helps implement the New York State Open Space Conservation Plan, will provide improved roadside parking and stormwater management, informational signs, and a looped public hiking trail from Lyons Road through this preserve to the creek. This work is anticipated to be started this fall and completed by next summer. The Chautauqua Watershed Conservancy is a local land trust, watershed education and pollution prevention organization dedicated to preserving and enhancing the water quality, scenic beauty and ecologic health of the lakes, streams and watershed of the Chautauqua region.

Opera House Cinema Series to Screen “Ricki and the Flash”

Contributed Article

1891 Fredonia Opeara House

The next feature film in the Opera House Cinema Series is “Ricki and the Flash,” starring Meryl Streep and Rick Springfield. It will be screened on Sat., Sept. 19, and Tues., Sept. 22, at 7:30 p.m. “Ricki and the Flash” is an original and electrifying film loaded with live musical performances. It stars Streep as Ricki Rendazzo, an aging guitar heroine who made a world of mistakes when she followed her dreams of rock-and-roll stardom. Now, as she returns home, Ricki gets a shot at redemption and a chance to make things right; but, to do so, she must face the music with her family. Directed by Academy Award-winning director Jonathan Demme with a script by Academy Award-winning screenwriter Diablo Cody, the film also stars Streep’s real-life daughter, Mamie Gummer. Springfield portrays a Flash member in love with Ricki. Kevin Kline is Ricki’s ex-husband; and Audra McDonald is Kline’s new wife.

Peter Travers, in Rolling Stone calls the film “a heartfelt salute to those who play the underside of rock & roll because, well, they have to.” Peter Howell, in the Toronto Star, calls it “worth watching, and rocking to.” Richard Roeper, in the Chicago Sun Times, says “the skilled veteran Demme alternates dysfunctional family confrontations with easy comedy, expertly peppering in just the right rock tunes along the way.” Calvin Wilson, in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, says “quite a few filmgoers lament the shortage of movies for adults. ‘Ricki and the Flash’ goes against that trend with rock 'n' roll attitude.” Rated PG-13 for thematic material, brief drug content, sexuality and language, “Ricki and the Flash” runs 101 minutes. The Opera House Cinema Series is sponsored by Lake Shore Savings Bank. Tickets are available at the door for $7 (adults), $6.50 (seniors & Opera House members) and $5 (students) the night of each screening. A book of 10 movie passes is available for $60 at the door or online at www. fredopera.org. For more information, call the Opera House Box Office at 716-679-1891.

Opera House to Present One-Man Play “Vincent”

Contributed Article

1891 Fredonia Opera House

The 1891 Fredonia Opera House will present a one-man play about the life of artist Vincent van Gogh on Friday, Sept. 18, at 7:30 p.m. The play will be performed live on stage at the Opera House by Starry Night Productions and stars acclaimed actor James Briggs. Today, Vincent van Gogh is one of the world’s most recognizable and beloved painters. But that wasn’t always the case. In van Gogh’s own lifetime, in fact, quite the opposite was true. In van Gogh’s lifetime, he sold only one painting, for 400 francs. Critics labeled his work “madness” in which “blood and fire appear to have usurped the place of color.” But his story is so much more than that of the misunderstood genius who famously cut off his own ear. His life was one of great passions, and even greater turmoil, ultimately ending in suicide one summer day in 1890. The passion, the love and the tormented beauty of the life of Vincent

van Gogh is dramatized in this intimate one-man play, which author Leonard Nimoy (Star Trek’s Mr. Spock) adapted from hundreds of letters between Vincent and his closest ally, his brother, Theo. This production, which BroadwayWorld.com described as “enlightening and enjoyable” and said “is not to be missed,” stars James Briggs. Briggs movingly reveals van Gogh as few knew him. Most of the story is told by Theo, but at times, Briggs becomes Vincent and embodies the

Starry Night Theater Company. He has appeared in this role in more than 100 performances up and down the East Coast. He also has acted in regional theaters throughout the country. He is a graduate of Middlebury College and The Asolo Conservatory. While appropriate for all audiences, this production is best suited for adults and children ages 10 and older. “Vincent” is part of the DFT Communications Spotlight Series, which is generously sponsored by DFT Communications.

Flu Season: An Epidemic Every Year Contributed Article Westﬁeld Memorial Hospital

A year ago, two thirds of Americans polled by the Washington Post were seriously concerned about a possible widespread Ebola epidemic in the United States–a slim possibility that never materialized. A much smaller number of Americans are concerned about the flu epidemic of 2015-2016, even though it is certain to happen, as it does every year. It is known simply as the flu season. Influenza may not be as deadly as Ebola, but it is far more contagious. Ebola is spread only through direct contact with the blood or bodily fluid of a person who is sick with Ebola. The flu virus is likely to be floating in the air in any public place you visit during flu season and is responsible for killing 20,000 to 50,000 annually. The best thing you can do to protect yourself from this epidemic is widely known: get a flu shot! It’s as simple, easy and important as fastening your seat belt when you get in a car. Yet only about 40% of Americans get the vaccine in any given year. While the flu vaccine is not 100% effective, it can mean the difference between feeling miserable for a couple of weeks and landing in the hospital with a life-threatening complication such as pneumonia. No one can predict what the flu season will be like this year or how well the vaccine will match up with viral strains that are circulating. But the vaccine is safe, inexpensive and virtually painless. And having it will lower the risk that you will transmit the disease to friends and family. What’s in the Vaccine? Each year, public health experts decide which viruses are likely to be a threat based on monitoring of flu activity around the world. A vaccine is then developed to protect against three or four of the most prevalent strains. The vaccine last year failed to protect against the predominant Switzerland A strain, which had mutated enough to make it invulnerable to the vaccine that was developed to combat it. By late summer of 2014, this H3N2 strain had become the primary illness-causing agent, and it continues to be dominant worldwide. This is one strain that will be included in this year’s vaccine. Those most at risk of getting severe effects of the flu are young children, older adults and persons with medical conditions such as cancer or asthma. Last year, about 100 children died and more than 14,000 adults age 65 and over were hospitalized because of the flu. (Deaths due to the flu are reported only for children age 18 and under.) For these high-risk persons and for pregnant women who could pass the virus to their unborn child, vaccination is crucial. If you care for or visit high risk persons–an elderly parent or grandparent or a pre-school child–you should get a flu shot, for their sake as well as yours. When they do get the flu, persons at high risk of flu complications and individuals who are very sick with the flu should take antiviral drugs which have proven to prevent serious flu complications. Flu season starts in October, and that’s when you should get your flu shot–as early as possible so that it has time to take effect by the time the flu virus arrives. Studies show that immunity, whether from the vaccine or the disease, declines over time; that’s why you should be immunized every year. Contrary to what many believe, immunization will not give you the flu. And, unless you have an allergy, the only side effect is a slightly sore arm for a day or two. It’s possible, of course, to catch a cold, or even the flu, about the same time as you get your flu shot because the vaccine takes two weeks to become fully effective. When the flu strikes hard, it can and does kill. In the notorious influenza pandemics of 1918, 1957 and 1968, millions of deaths worldwide were recorded. Public health experts acknowledge that flu epidemics every year will always be with us. But if two thirds of the population were as concerned about stopping the flu as they were about protecting themselves from Ebola last year, the toll in terms of serious illness and death would be considerably lower.

TheFirst,Fast Track To Results but the physiological change your tempo. tempo holds

ate a truly fit individual. After all, you will not be able to do the things you’re called to do if you lack the physical capability to do them. Keeping this in mind, there is one simple fitness concept that is frequently overlooked: tempo. Just like dance By Brad Jarrett class, tempo simply Contributing Writer means the speed at which you complete a movement. For examWe often talk about the ple, during a biceps curl importance each pillar you can take 2 seconds of fitness holds; mental, to lift the weight, 2 secemotional, spiritual, and onds to pause at the top, physical. Physical fitness followed by 2 seconds is known as the lowest to lower it back to the tier, but it’s still imporstarting position. This is tant. It’s foundational; classified as the tempo needed in conjunction of your exercise, and it’s with other pillars to cre- critical for a few reasons.

the ability to alter an exercise in a thousand different ways. What do I mean? Let’s use the aforementioned bicep curl; instead of taking 2 seconds during each phase; take 10 seconds. This simple change will shift your entire view of the exercise. Fellas, think of it in terms of shopping with your wives; if she asks you to ride along to 2 stores you’ll make it just fine. If she asks you to shop at 10; it’s a different ballgame. The activity is the same; shopping, but the response is completely different. Same with tempo, the movement stays exactly the same,

response changes drastically. Secondly, change in tempo helps gym goers bust through plateaus. As a general rule of thumb, your gym routine should be changed ever 4-6 weeks. This doesn’t mean a complete overhaul is in order; simply that some variables of your workout should change in order to alter the physical and physiological demand created. Shifting the tempo of exercise is the adjustment you need. Take squats for example; if you no longer get sore after squatting (a good soreness level~5 out of 10) it is time to

Take 5 seconds to lower, 5 seconds in the bottom position, and 5 seconds to rise. This variation is guaranteed to spark new change in your legs and buns. Thirdly, using tempo correctly, builds mental toughness. If you don’t believe me attempt to squat taking 60 seconds to lower and 60 seconds to rise. It’s difficult to remain honest when your legs are burning and you’re counting down the seconds until your set is finished. Therefore, changing tempo provides a great opportunity for you to take command of your mind, which builds mental

fortitude. This in turn leads to development of the toughness needed to power through trials in life. Remember, all lessons learned in fitness should be used in life; tempo is no exception. If you’d a new challenge in your gym routine, try taking 5 seconds to lower the weight during each of your repetitions. I guarantee it will be more difficult than you imagine. Make sure you remain honest with the count; I suggest using a watch. Have fun :) Fitness Will Be Greater.

Kids and Exercise

By Tonja Dodd Contributing Writer

This month is childhood obesity awareness month and what better topic to discuss than exercise? Exercise or physical activity is the most important health behavior in preventing childhood obesity and promoting good health in our youth. People are born to be active and should be encouraged to stay active. To keep it simple, experts say children and adolescents should engage

in physical activity at least 60 minutes a day. I am certain all parents of toddlers would agree that kids behave and sleep better when they get in daily active play time. That fact holds true for all ages. In addition to better body composition, sleep and behavior, regular physical activity promotes cardiovascular and muscular fitness, bone health, healthy blood pressure, cholesterol and blood glucose levels and reduced symptoms of depression. To be more specific, the guidelines suggest that the 60 minutes of physical activity daily be a mix of moderate and vigorous levels of activity. If you cannot get all 60 in at once, break it up into 15 - 20 or 30 minute bouts. Vigorous intensity and more than 60 minutes does provide even more health and fitness benefits. Additionally, the guidelines for youth

recommend that 3 days a week includes bone strengthening activity and muscular strengthening activity. So what is included in the moderate-intensity bucket? Think of your everyday active play and recreation like hiking, skateboarding, going out for a walk; things like canoeing, yard work and heavy housework and games like baseball and softball too. When it comes to vigorous exercise think of games that involve running/ chasing like tag and soccer. Martial arts such as karate and wrestling and other sports like hockey, basketball, swimming and singles tennis can be included. Activity like crosscountry skiing, bicycle riding and dancing are also vigorous activity. If you perceive it to be vigorous it probably is. Exercise that includes hopping, skipping and jumping are good examples of bone strengthening

exercise such as jumping rope or on a trampoline as well as sports like basketball, gymnastics, volleyball and tennis. Muscle strengthening exercise includes push-ups, pull-ups, exercise bands, weight machines and playing on the playground. To get your kids active: 1. Set an example, 2. Provide opportunities and 3. Make it fun. Be active yourself - make time to take a walk, do yoga, workout at the gym or join a Zumba class, volleyball, hockey or flag football league. Take your family on a nightly walk or a hike/ bicycle ride on the weekend day. The children around you model adults and when they see that exercise is a significant part of your life they too will make it part of theirs. Provide opportunities for your kids to be active - sign them up for soccer, baseball, gymnastics, dance, swimming; take

them to the playground often, ask them to help in the yard; provide equipment like balls, a trampoline and jump ropes to encourage activity; show them how to play tag and hopscotch. Buy a tricycle, bicycle or scooter - get them second-hand if you cannot afford a new one. Having these opportunities available will encourage your children to be active. Finally, make it fun - invite friends and family to join you, wear a smile and be enthusiastic when your kid asks you to play ball or go to the park. If sports get too competitive or boring for your child, offer something different like dance or hiking that they may like. Ask them what they like. Don’t force your favorites onto your children but do encourage and support what they do like.

Life Insurance Tips For Every Stage Of Your Life Contributed Article StatePoint

For many, life insurance is a one-time purchase. But your policy should keep pace with your life circumstances. September, which is Life Insurance Awareness Month, is a good time to determine whether you have appropriate coverage. Life insurance plays a key role in financial confidence and planning, according the Lincoln Financial Group’s recent M.O.O.D of America Survey (Measuring Optimism, Outlook and Direction), which found that 77 percent of policy owners feel prepared to protect their wealth compared to 61 percent of non-owners. Additionally, the survey found that life insurance owners feel more prepared for retirement, and potential income disruption. Young Newlyweds You may rely on two salaries to maintain your lifestyle. Would one person be able to continue living in the same manner on just one income? Are your savings adequate for your spouse to afford rent or mortgage payments and pay off debts without you? Premium rates are based on age and health status, so the earlier you buy, the less you’ll potentially pay. Consider locking in lower rates now. Term life insurance is typically the most affordable option, providing coverage for a set number of years. Identify financial obligations and purchase a policy big enough to cover them. As your financial commitments increase, you can add more coverage as needed. Growing Families Between diapers, childcare, dance lessons, braces and education, raising a child in the United States can cost around $250,000 for a middle-income family, according to USDA estimates. Life insurance is crucial for allowing your family to maintain the lifestyle you’ve built for them, even if the unthinkable happens. The primary breadwinner should have a policy big enough to replace the income required to see children through to adulthood. But a non-working spouse might need coverage too. If that spouse was gone, there might be added household expenses, such as childcare. Revisit your life insurance after the birth of every child. If coverage is lacking, consider a small policy alongside your existing one, which is generally more cost-effective than buying one larger policy. Retirement-Ready The kids are grown, the house is paid off, and you’re embarking on retirement. Do you still need life insurance? If no one is depending on you financially, it may be safe to scale down and maintain a smaller policy and focus on long-term care insurance instead. But, you might also have good reasons to maintain status quo. For example, how big a hardship would it be for your spouse to lose your pension and Social Security benefits? Life insurance can help offset those losses and is useful in helping inheritors pay taxes on a large estate. Or if you have a cash value policy, perhaps you have plans to leverage it as a source of supplemental retirement income. Remember, life insurance doesn’t need to be static. It can be adjusted to fit your changing needs. For more tips, visit www.lfg.com. Additional information on the solutions available for meeting specific needs can be found at www.lfg.com/LIAM.

No matter your age, plan your legacy and have a clear idea of what to leave behind for your loved ones.

Admittedly, South Dayton is actually in Cattaraugus County. But, being that it’s only a mile from the county line, and that this column features Chautauqua County – and the surrounding areas, we felt it qualified for its own piece.

the residents of this quaint town take immense pride in their community. South Dayton was incorporated in 1915, but its history goes beyond the past 99 years. The area of Pine Valley, where South Dayton is located, has been around since the early 19th century, and when the railroad arrived in 1875, South Dayton became a hot stop for the traveling traincars. Over the years, South Dayton has played host to a number of notable individuals and events, which stand

out in the hearts of the proud residents. Hollywood Comes to South Dayton In 1983, Robert Redford came to South Dayton as part of fi liming the famous baseball movie, “The Natural.” According to the website, forgottenbuffalo.com, “After looking at more than 30 small towns, [Production executive Patrick] Markey chose the village of South Dayton as the ideal location for the carnival sequence,

“But our ongoing theme through all of this has been ‘restoration.’ We don’t want t tear apart or ruin this beautiful building, but rather restore it to its former glory. The pews will stay. The organ will stay. We’ll change a few walls and carpet and paint, but keep the overall beauty of the place intact.” The Fredonia Baptist congregation enjoyed a bittersweet morning as they rejoiced over their building entering new hands, but still maintain a place in their hearts. “This building has served us and the community well for years,” said Dr. Howard. “But when Family Church came to us, we recognized that in God’s providence this was His will and direction for both congregations. The whole situation has worked out beautifully, and we’re thankful to God for having seen and been a part of it.” The Fredonia Baptist congregation will continue to meet together in Fredonia Place, an assisted living community on Howard Street in Fredonia. Dr. Howard has led a Bible study there for years, and will continue the faithful work God has called him to. Moving forward, renovations are set to begin in the coming weeks for Family Church. The grand opening likely won’t be until early 2016, and in the meantime they’ll continue to meet at 45 Lakeview Ave. in Fredonia.

SELF-PROCLAIMED EXPERT PICKS, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 25 Week 2 surely promises more excitement with some can’t-miss games on the docket. To the picks!

DENVER BRONCOS (1-0) at KANSAS CITY CHIEFS (1-0) It’s hard to imagine the Denver Broncos offense playing any worse than they did against the Baltimore Ravens last week. The Chiefs, on the other hand, had a near flawless performance from their offense in a relatively easy win on the road against the Houston Texans last week. Yet both teams are 1-0, setting up a great early-season Thursday game. After throwing a touchdown in 51 consecutive games, quarterback Peyton Manning has now thrown zero in three of his last five games. That’s not going to cut it against the Chiefs. Kansas City harassed Houston quarterbacks to the tune of five sacks, four hits and seven passes defended, so Denver’s line is going to have its hands full. Manning was sacked four times against Baltimore, so this might not be a dream matchup for the Broncos. Being in Arrowhead Stadium could make that even worse. Of course, ideally the Broncos get more from their running game and Manning doesn’t have to throw the ball 40 times again. Ronnie Hillman and C.J. Anderson combined for just 70 yards on 24 carries. Kansas City has historically had trouble with this Peyton Manningled Broncos team, but the Chiefs have to be the more confident of the two teams going into this one. It keeps being noted that the Chiefs had zero receiving touchdowns from wide receivers last season, but considering tight end Travis Kelce just had 106 yards and two scores, they might not need their receivers. Jeremy Maclin’s Chiefs debut consisted of five catches for 52 yards, so

he’s clearly a big part of the offense. Jamaal Charles was over 100 total yards and added a touchdown through the air. Yes, this offense could be sneaky good. This will probably be a low-scoring affair as both of these teams sport defenses that rank among the best in the league. I said it last week and I’ll say it again now— I’m a believer in the Chiefs. PICK VS. SPREAD: Chiefs (-3). STRAIGHT PICK: Chiefs.

HOUSTON TEXANS (0-1) at CAROLINA PANTHERS (1-0) Both teams played pretty poorly last week, but the Panthers were fortunate enough to be playing against the hapless Jaguars and therefore have a win under their belts already. The Texans got beat up pretty bad at home by the Chiefs. They were sacked a bunch of times and fell behind by multiple scores right off the bat. Houston actually got back in the game a little bit when they replaced Brian Hoyer with Ryan Mallett. It’ll be interesting to see who plays in this one. Either way, J.J. Watt is a monster. He had two sacks in the loss even with Kansas City up big and running the ball a lot. The Panthers weren’t good against the Jaguars. Don’t be fooled by their 1-0 record. But a road win in the NFL is a valuable asset. What pops out in this one is that an objectively terrible offensive line (hello, Michael Oher) is going to have to stop Watt. Yeah, good luck with that. The Panthers passing game struggled and probably will throughout the year with stud receiver Kelvin Benjamin out with injury. The running game won’t be great either. Jonathan Stewart got 18 carries but turned them into just 56 yards. So poor passing game and a poor running game against a

terrible offense and an okay defense. I guess I’ll go with Watt and Co. PICK VS. SPREAD: Texans (+3). STRAIGHT PICK: Texans.

TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS (0-1) at NEW ORLEANS SAINTS (0-1) It was same old, same old for both of these teams in Week 1. The Bucs were straight up awful. The Saints had Drew Brees throw the ball nearly 50 times, but still got clobbered. One bright spot for Tampa Bay was second-year tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins. The 6-foot-5, 262-pounder grabbed five catches for 110 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Rookie quarterback Jamies Winston was pretty bad in his first action, but ASJ proved to be a valuable weapon in the passing game. With all the injuries in the Saints defensive secondary, the Tampa Bay passing game could find its groove in this one. New Orleans had a tough time containing the Cardinals. The Saints “pass rush” managed to record zero sacks and just one quarterback hit. That’s awful. Even Winston will be comfortable against a defense that soft. The Saints running game is another area of concern. Mark Ingram was the leading rusher with 24 yards. Altogether, the Saints gained 54 yards on 20 carries. Again, awful. Of course, Brees threw for 355 yards, so the offense isn’t a total wreck. The Bucs defense just got torched by rookie Marcus Mariota. What is Brees going to do to them? I’ll take my chances. PICK VS. SPREAD: Bucs (+11.5). STRAIGHT PICK: Saints.

ARIZONA CARDINALS (1-0) at CHICAGO BEARS (0-1) Sunday was a good day for the Cardinals. Not only did they take the Saints behind the proverbial toolshed, but they also saw the Seahawks fall in overtime. Sunday for the Bears? Not so good. The Cardinals were downright great on both offense and defense against the Saints. Carson Palmer seemingly moved the ball at will. Running back Andre Ellington will miss this game and probably a couple more with a PCL strain. That hurts as Ellington is a big part of the run game and the passing attack. He would have run wild against a weak Bears defense. Chris Johnson is the backup, but that’s a big dropoff in talent. Palmer will probably air it out more, which probably will work anyway. The Bears lost to the Packers, but that’s nothing new. Jay Cutler is now 1-12 against Green Bay. Of course, Matt Forte is a monster against the Packers and everyone else for that matter. The Bears will need another big effort from Forte if they want to hang with the Cardinals. Arizona certainly has a better defense than Green Bay, so Chicago might find the sledding a little tougher. That might spell trouble for Cutler, who completed only 50 percent of his passes against a suspect Packers D. Alshon Jeffery is freakishly good, but Cutler is freakishly mediocre. The Bears already lost one game at home this season and I think they’re due for a second. Chicago just isn’t a good team. PICK VS. SPREAD: Cardinals (-2.5). STRAIGHT PICK: Cardinals.

SELF-PROCLAIMED EXPERT PICKS, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 26

NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS (1-0) at BUFFALO BILLS (1-0) How crazy is Ralph Wilson Stadium going to be on Sunday afternoon? Between the Bills upsetting the Colts last week, Tom Brady getting his suspension thrown out and the pure hatred Bills fans have towards the Patriots, this is going to be a fun one. The Patriots offense looked unstoppable against the Steelers in the opening game on Thursday. Brady tossed four touchdowns (three to Rob Gronkowski). Dion Lewis gave New England a nice boost in the running game with 69 yards on 15 carries. Of course, the chasm between the Steelers defense and the Bills defense is vast, to say the least. The Bills continued their recent history of dominating elite quarterbacks by making Andrew Luck look like an undrafted rookie rather than one of the best players in the league. That was without perhaps the unit’s best player as Marcell Dareus was suspended for one game. He’ll be back for this one. Offensively, the Bills had a game plan last week and stuck with it. They played it safe with a healthy dose of running plays and safe pass plays. The one time they took a shot downfield, Tyrod Taylor’s strike to Percy Harvin resulted in a t51-yard touchdown. Perhaps we’ll see more shots like that against a suspect Patriots secondary. Or will Rex Ryan stick to what works? This is probably the game of the week. Every team in the AFC East won last week, adding even more importance to this one. The line is even. Even Vegas doesn’t know what to make of the Bills. PICK VS. SPREAD: Bills. STRAIGHT PICK: Bills.

home team, but I can’t see picking the Browns at all this year. PICK VS. SPREAD: Titans (even). STRAIGHT PICK: Titans. SAN DIEGO CHARGERS (1-0) at CINCINNATI BENGALS (1-0) This is an intriguing matchup of AFC hopefuls. When talking about the best teams in the conference, these two teams aren’t generally mentioned, but they’re legit. The Chargers overcame a huge early deficit to defeat the visiting Lions last week. They put up nearly 500 yards of offense against a defense that was touted pretty highly coming in. Keenan Allen caught 15 balls for 166 yards. Philip Rivers threw for over 400 yards. Rookie running back Melvin Gordon ran hard, though it was Danny Woodhead that found the endzone twice. The defense was solid, too. They picked off Matthew Stafford twice and held Detroit to just 69 yards rushing. The Bengals offense is actually pretty similar to Detroit’s, so we could see a repeat performance. Cincinnati had perhaps the most complete performance of any team last week in a total dismantling of Oakland. They get to be at home for this one, which should help. The offense showed what it could be when healthy. Jeremy Hill scored twice. Tight end Tyler Eifert (who missed nearly all of 2014) scored twice while compiling over 100 yards receiving. That’s not even considering A.J. Green, Mohamed Sanu and Giovani Bernard — three exceptional weapons. The defense is also quite good. They had their way with Oakland last week, but face a much stiffer test in San Diego. The winner of this game is going to have a nice start towards another playoff appearance. It’s never too early to grab that head-to-head tiebreaker. PICK VS. SPREAD: Chargers (+3). STRAIGHT PICK: Bengals.

TENNESSEE TITANS (1-0) at CLEVELAND BROWNS (0-1) The Titans played and beat the Bucs last week while the Browns fell to the Jets. It’s entirely possible that those are four of the five worst teams in the NFL (don’t worry, Jaguars, I didn’t forget about your terribleness). Now the Titans have a chance to get to 2-0 before inevitably losing 14 straight games. Okay, it’s theoretically possible that the Titans aren’t as bad as they were last year. Rookie quarterback Marcus Mariota threw only 16 passes in his first real action in the NFL, yet he completed 13 of them and four of them went for scores. That’s either an Aaron Rodgers level of efficiency or an unmatched lucky streak. The Browns defense isn’t total garbage, so he should face a tougher test this week. Mariota might find it easier if second-year running back Bishop Sankey can match the success he had in Week 1. Sankey ran for 74 yards on just 12 carries and found the end zone both on the ground and through the air. He was something of a disappointment as a rookie last season, but the arrow for Sankey is certainly pointing up. The Browns were thrown an early curveball against the Jets when starting quarterback Josh McCown went down with a concussion after throwing just eight passes. Johnny Manziel stepped in with mixed results, going 13-24 for 182 yards with a touchdown and an interception. He was sacked three times as well. The Jets have a much better front seven than the Titans, so Manziel might find he has more time to find his targets in this one. Oh, and as of Tuesday afternoon, Manziel will be starting this game. Both of these teams are quite bad. Quite bad, indeed. The line is even, so normally I’d go with the

SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS (1-0) at PITTSBURGH STEELERS (0-1) The team with the longest rest is playing the team with the least rest. That’s an odd scheduling quirk so early in the year. The 49ers suffered a crushing offseason between arrests, retirements, coaches leaving, etc. Yet they came out in Week 1 and laid a hurting on the visiting Vikings. That wasn’t supposed to happen. This was supposed to be a garbage team, right? Well, they looked strong on offense and defense. Running back Carlos Hyde exploded for 168 yards and two scores on the ground. The Steelers defense is suspect at best, so expect Hyde to get a healthy dose of carries in this one. It seemed like Colin Kaepernick wasn’t given too many chances to be a playmaker, but maybe that’s where we’re at with him. The Steelers lost to the Patriots, but not many teams go into Foxboro and come out with a win. So it’s almost as if their season starts with their home opener. Antonio Brown was his usual dominant self with 133 yards receiving and a score. There’s no way San Francisco isn’t game planning for Brown, but he’s such a special talent it might not matter. DeAngelo Williams went off for 127 yards in the opener in place of suspended Le’Veon Bell. That probably won’t be a weekly occurrence, but it was fun to see. I like the Steelers to pick up their first win of the season, but the 49ers are better than people are expecting. PICK VS. SPREAD: 49ers (+7). STRAIGHT PICK: Steelers. CONTINUED ON PG 28

DETROIT LIONS (0-1) at MINNESOTA VIKINGS (0-1) If you’re the Lions, how do you bounce back from that heart-breaking loss to the Chargers? They were up 21-3 in that game and looked to be in total control before totally falling apart. Well, maybe a game against the hapless Vikings could remedy Detroit. A lot of talk is going on about the Lions’ offense coming up short. Calvin Johnson only got four targets, yada yada yada. That doesn’t mean nearly as much as the defense that gave up nearly 500 yards of offense to a team missing its Hall of Fame tight end. The Lions simply couldn’t stop Philip Rivers and Co. Yes, they’ll be going against a team that managed just three points against the 49ers, but they still have a ton of talent. For a team with sights on winning the division, the Lions can not afford to fall to 0-2. The Vikings struggled mightily in San Francisco. There’s no way to sugarcoat it. Three points pretty much speaks for itself. The defense also gave up nearly 170 yards rushing to Carlos Hyde. Basically nothing positive happened in that game. Minnesota has to put that one in the rearview mirror and start their season anew at home with this one. One of these teams is going to fall to 0-2. Considering both have their sights on winning the division, that kind of start isn’t going to help. PICK VS. SPREAD: Lion (+3). STRAIGHT PICK: Lions.

ATLANTA FALCONS (1-0) at NEW YORK GIANTS (0-1)

Oh the Giants. Some things never change. Surely you know by now what happened in their last minute loss to Dallas last week, but I think zero people were surprised with how that game ended. That said, the fact that the Giants were able to hang with the Cowboys was a pleasant surprise. Eli Manning didn’t throw any touchdowns, but he didn’t throw any picks, either. The Giants had more rushing yards than Dallas. Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie scored a defensive touchdown and the defense added two interceptions of Tony Romo. Those are all good things. The bad news? They allowed Romo to throw for 356 yards and three touchdowns. Oh, and they lost. Perhaps a home game will turn the tides. The Falcons go on the road after hanging on for an upset win over Philly on Monday Night Football. Julio Jones immediately made that huge extension he signed look great with 141 yards and a pair of scores. Even Tevin Coleman racked up 80 yards on the ground. There’s certainly nothing wrong with the Falcons offense. They should have a field day against an alreadybattered Giants D. The defense did just enough, including a timely interception. There might be more of those up for grabs with Eli at the helm. What? The Giants are favored? Vegas, what are you doing? PICK VS. SPREAD: Falcons (+1). STRAIGHT PICK: Falcons.

ball for just under 300 yards, too. He was sacked just twice against the fearsome Seattle defense. The concerning part was that St. Louis put the ball on the ground four times, losing three of them. Really they could have dominated this game without the case of the butterfingers. The Football Team doesn’t have the same defense, so the Rams might be able to go off in this one. The Washington defense actually held up its end of the bargain against Miami last week. A late punt return for a touchdown was the difference in the 17-10 loss. Alfred Morris was back to being a terribly underrated running back with 121 yards on the ground. Kirk Cousins is going to have to do better against a devastating St. Louis pass rush. That’s a tough task and there’s little evidence to say he’s up to it. The Football Team defense was better than expected last week, but there’s no way the offense can do much against the Rams. PICK VS. SPREAD: Rams (-3.5). STRAIGHT PICK: Rams.

in Week 1, but look for him to get more against Jacksonville. The Jaguars offense managed almost nothing against Carolina and now line up against the likes of Ndamukong Suh and Co. I don’t like their chances. Blake Bortles was sacked five times by Carolina and threw a pair of interceptions in that loss. The Jacksonville running game did nothing last week and probably won’t be much of a weapon all season, least of all against a dominant Miami defensive line. The Dolphins are getting to fatten up their win-loss record against the worst teams in the league. I’m sure they won’t complain. PICK VS. SPREAD: Dolphins (-7). STRAIGHT PICK: Dolphins.

BALTIMORE RAVENS (0-1) at OAKLAND RAIDERS (0-1) These teams had two of the worst performances of Week 1. The Ravens weren’t blown out like the Raiders were, but the stats aren’t pretty. Joe Flacco threw for just 117 yards. He threw two interceptions, one of which was returned for the game-winning touchdown. The Ravens running game managed just 73 yards on 23 carries. The defense MIAMI DOLPHINS (1-0) at did a nice job of harassing Peyton JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS Manning and held the HOFer to (0-1) a 59.9 quarterback rating.

rible in relief, but there’s no doubt that Carr is the guy in Oakland. Rookie Amari Cooper had a decent professional debut with five catches for 47 yards on nine targets. The defense has to do a better job of putting pressure on the quarterback. Against the Bengals, the unit managed zero sacks and just one quarterback hit. You better believe Joe Flacco will tear them apart if he gets that time. The Ravens play their second straight road game while the Raiders get their second straight home game. Is it too early in the season for road weariness to set in? Probably. PICK VS. SPREAD: Raiders (+7). STRAIGHT PICK: Ravens.

Not only did they lose stud wide receiver Dez Bryant for six weeks to a broken foot, but they will also be without DE Randy Gregory roughly the same time frame. Gregory was poised to play a huge role on this Cowboys defense. On the road against a division rival, SEATTLE SEAHAWKS (0-1) at Dallas will need players to step up GREEN BAY PACKERS (1-0) in a big way.

Now every opportunity to destroy his the Pack returns home to play former team. Sam Bradford threw probably their biggest rival now in for over 330 yards, but his pair of Seattle. How much do the Packers

want to bury the Seahawks early and often and knock them to 0-2? Aaron Rodgers threw the ball just 23 times, but still connected for three touchdowns and showed why he’s the MVP. Concerning for the Green Bay, though, has to be the run defense. Matt Forte gashed them for 141 yards and you know Marshawn Lynch took note of that. Speaking of Lynch, did anyone NOT think he was getting the ball on fourth down in overtime last week? That was as predictable as the Packers beating the Bears. Whether they’ll admit it or not, the Seahawks defense missed Kam Chancellor last week. He’s holding out and each week will prove just how valuable he is. I mean, Nick Foles just threw for 300 yards against this unit, for Pete’s sake. Also concerning was the six times Russell Wilson was sacked last week. Green Bay can certainly get after the quarterback so Seattle will have to find a way to protect Wilson whether it’s by moving the pocket or using an extra tight end. This is the perfect game for prime time on Sunday night. If you watch only one game this week, make it this one. PICK VS. SPREAD: Packers (-4). STRAIGHT

NEW YORK JETS (1-0) at INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (0-1) The Colts struggled mightily with one of the AFC East’s elite defenses last week in Buffalo and now they’ll have to contend with the impressive Jets unit. No one will confuse the Jets offense with the Packers, but they moved the ball pretty easily against a good Cleveland defense. Ryan Fitzpatrick was inaccurate, but did throw two touchdowns — one each to receivers Brandon Marshall and Eric Decker. The Gang Green defense was what really won the game with five takeaways and three sacks. This Colts offense is leagues better than the Browns, but there’s no reason the Jets can’t slow down Luck and Co. Luck looked downright human against the Bills. He got hit a bunch of times and threw a pair of interceptions (it could have been as many as four picks, probably). Injuries to T.Y. Hilton and Frank Gore certainly played a part in the sputtering Colts offense, but Luck absolutely has to be better. The defense needs to improve, too. They failed to contain the running game last week and that opened up bigger plays like the 51-yard touchdown strike to Percy Harvin. The Jets looked like world beaters while the Colts looked like scrubs. I’d expect the teams to show their true colors in this one. PICK VS. SPREAD: Jets (+7.5). STRAIGHT PICK: Colts.

Fredonia Blue Devil student-athletes took part in four community service projects last week. The annual autumn campus blood drive was organized by the men's basketball team. Members of the team solicited people on campus and worked the registration table inside the Williams Center last Wednesday and Thursday for the Community Blood Bank of Northwest Pennyslvania and Western New York. All pints of blood collected will be used locally. Kathy Hastings of the Blood Bank reported 79 donors with 68 units of blood collected "That's 204 lives saved and improved," he wrote. "(The) drive alone saved Brooks Memorial $12,444." The men's and women's swimming and diving teams gathered last Friday to clean Wright Park Beach in Dunkirk. Nearly 30 student-athletes participated and collected 1,196 cigarette butts; 2,243 pieces of plastic (shards, bottles, etc.); 463 pieces of plastic foam; 99 pieces of paper or cardboard; 27 pieces of metal; 166 bottle caps; 44 cans, six shoes; and 144 miscellaneous items. For the seventh straight September, members of the men's hockey team did odd jobs at the homes of area senior citizens. The chores included window washing, gardening, trimming, landscaping, and general yard work. Blue Devil team captains Mitch Kaufmann and Ryan Wilkinson went to the home one area woman for the fourth straight year, and brought flowers to her this year. Over $3,100 was raised Friday and Saturday during the Fredonia Soccer Cancer Awareness event. Parents of the men's and women's soccer teams solicited and donated a variety of items for a silent raffle, resulting in nearly 40 baskets. Women from the softball and lacrosse teams braved first heat, then rain to collect gain entry fees and sell raffle and 50-50 tickets during the two-day Blue Devil Clarion Hotel Classic. In addition, Lake Shore Savings Bank made a donation of $1,500 toward the fight against prostate and ovarian cancer. The proceeds were donated to the Roswell Park Cancer Institute in Buffalo.

Golfer's

D i a ry

HAVE FUN, BUT BE CONSCIENTIOUS OF OTHER GOLFERS By Stefan Gestwicki Star Sports Editor

*Editor’s Note: The Golfer’s Diary was started three years ago as I took up the sport of golf. As I progress from beginner status, I’ll highlight diﬀerent courses in the area, pass along tips that I’ve picked up along the way, discuss equipment, etiquette and more. My job has perks. I’ll be the fi rst to admit that. I mean, I get to write about sports for a living. That alone seems like a perk when I consider what other people have to do on a day-to-day basis. I received a most-welcome, but unexpected perk a few weeks back when I went to Hillview Golf Course in Fredonia to cover a charity golf tournament. As I was taking pictures, a man came up to me, we talked about golf for a few minutes and he handed me two passes to Hillview. Yes, golf is awesome, but free golf is even…awesomer (hey, it’s my Golfer’s Diary; I can make up words if I want to). The extremely generous guy who gave me the passes actually said to bring my wife, but now that school has started she doesn’t have a ton of free time. So Bryan and I headed out on Friday morning with perfect weather for 18 holes. I believe this was only the second time we’ve played 18 this year. I say it every time I play at Hillview, but this was the site of my fi rst round (fi rst two, actually) of golf in my life four years ago. Every time I step on that fi rst tee box I can’t help but think about that. If it wasn’t for that fi rst time, I never would have fallen in love with the sport. My fi rst drive was scorched down the middle of the fairway. I just stood there and uttered an audible, “huh.” Yes, my driving has been so bad this season that a good one actually elicits bewilderment. My second shot was predictably short and right. I think I’ve landed on the same blade of grass with my second shot the last three or four times I’ve played that hole. It’s like clockwork at this point. I even used a club more than common sense would have dictated. A decent chip still led to a two-putt and a bo-

gey. I’ve still yet to record a par on that hole for some reason or another. Bryan struggled mightily for the fi rst four holes. It was pretty ugly. He has struggled the past few times that we’ve been out, actually. His biggest problem has been off the tee. But when after he yanked a roller to the left on No. 6, I fi nally noticed what was wrong. His club was coming through the zone kind of at a “V” instead of with the head parallel to the ground, if that makes sense. It limited his “sweet spot” immensely. He teed up another ball, choked up a bit on his driver and laced one right down the middle of the fairway. Sure enough, he repeated the feat with a perfectly straight drive on No. 7 and again on No. 8. In fact, we both had a nice stretch of golf to close the front nine. After a double-bogey on No. 2, I actually closed with six straight bogeys and a par. Bryan matched me at the end with three straight bogeys followed by a par. Golf is so much more fun when your partner is playing well, too. We talked openly about how your own good shot is kind of moot when the other guy is hitting the skids, so to speak. We were pretty excited to play the back nine. I shot a 45 on the front, so I was hopeful of breaking 90. Bryan shot a 51 even with totally blowing the fi rst three holes, so he was defi nitely looking at breaking 100. Unfortunately, we had to wait on the tee box because there was a group ahead of us. No problem, that happens. While we were sitting in our cart, however, a foursome drove up to the women’s tees in front of us and proceeded to play. Oh, well, that’s problematic. This group was not at all fast, but I figured once they realized we were right behind them, being just a twosome, they’d defi nitely let us play through. They didn’t after No 1. They didn’t after Nos. 2, 3 or 4 either. And trust me when I say I’m all for people of all ages going out and having fun, but for heavens sake, be aware when you’re holding up a group to a snail’s pace. Both Bryan and I suffered from the unbearable pace we were playing at. Our scores dropped sharply and we were just getting frustrated. We fi nally just drove past them on the par 3 No. 5 and came back and fi nished

on that hole. Again, people of all ages and skill levels should be encouraged to play golf. I love seeing nontraditional golfers out enjoying the sport, but letting a faster group play through is just common decency. Please be aware if you’re holding people up. Neither of us played particularly well even once we got passed that group. There were some good shots, but there were some pretty bad ones, too. I ruined an amazing drive on No. 17 by toeing the living daylights out of my second shot and ending up in the trees. I ruined a beautiful tee shot on No. 18 with a chip that sailed by the hole, leading to a two-putt and a bogey. It was ugly. All together, I actually only shot two shots worse than the front nine, but it felt like a whole lot more. My fi nal score of 92 was also a little disappointing because I really thought I could break 90. I shot a 42 last week when I played Hillivew, so my hopes were high even before my opening-nine 42. Bryan also just missed his target with a backnine of 50 for a 101. Both of us just missing our goal was a shame, but what a beautiful day for golf we got. Hillview truly is a fantastic course for both new and experienced golfers. It’s certainly scoreable, but it’s far from easy. I’m extremely excited for my next outing as it will almost certainly be with my brother, Mark. He’s going to be home from California for two weeks. I’m not even sure if he’s played since he’s been out there, but I’m hoping to have a few chances to play while he’s home. As always, golf is great. Go get some.

Devils Hang with No. 8 Herons Before Falling Contributed Article FSU Sports Information Dept.

Nationally ranked William Smith scored midway through the second half to turn back upset-minded Fredonia, 1-0, under the University Stadium lights Tuesday night. Kara Shue broke the scoreless tie in the 59th minute when she onetimed an airborne crossing pass from Brie Ruane as the Herons, ranked No. 8 in NCAA Division III, improved to 2-1-1. The loss dropped Fredonia to 1-5. William Smith possessed the ball throughout the game -- and the statistics clearly showed it. The Herons outshot the Blue Devils 36-4 and had a 10-0 advantage in corner kicks. Blue Devil freshman goalkeeper Kendall Owczarzak (Depew, N.Y.) finished with 13 saves, including several difficult stops to keep the game scoreless and several more to maintain a one-goal margin. William Smith goalkeeper Kaileen Murray was called on to make one save while posting the shutout. Kristie Kleine (Cazenovia, N.Y.) had Fredonia's only shot-on-goal. Fredonia returns to action Saturday afternoon at Rochester Institute of Technology.
