Star Special FeatureFredonia

With the “splicing” of a giant double-helix DNA model, the State University of New York at Fredonia offi cially ushered in a new era in science teach-ing and learning.Fredonia President Virginia Horvath led hundreds of students, alumni, faculty, staff , administrators and community members in a celebration of the stunning, 92,000-square-foot, four-sto-ry Fredonia Science Center. Surrounded by a beautiful courtyard and connected to Houghton Hall (Fredonia’s existing science facility), it will vastly improve the teach-ing, learning and research opportunities within the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathemat-ics) disciplines across campus.A musical performance began the ceremony, in the form of an original composi-tion created especially for the event by Associate Professor Rob Deemer of the School of Music. Titled, “The Light of Things,” and inspired by William Wadsworth’s poem, “The Tables Turned,” it featured nearly 200 student vocalists, saxophonists and trombonists who were located throughout the atrium, main staircase and second-fl oor foyer.The speaking portion of the

event was, fi ttingly, kicked off by a student. Ramses Rodri-guez, a master’s degree can-didate majoring in Biology, welcomed everyone during the ceremony held in the new building’s atrium.“My experience in the sci-ences at Fredonia has been amazing. I’ve been given amazing research opportuni-ties that have allowed me to help better understand — and potentially even solve — the real-world issues which our faculty are exploring,” said Rodriguez, a Home-stead, Fla., native who earned

a Bachelor of Arts in Applied Music and a Bachelor of Sci-ence in Molecular Genetics from Fredonia in May. “The new facility you see behind me will make this amazing work that much more impact-ful. Its design increases the ways in which students can learn. Its new equipment means there is now so much more that we will know how to do. And all of this will make me more marketable to Ph.D. programs as I prepare to enter a career in medicine or research — or both.”Also fi ttingly, the event

served to kick off Home-coming Weekend for the 188-year-old university, as the new facility included the dedication of nearly 30 spaces named by benefactors through the Fredonia Col-lege Foundation in honor of many accomplished alumni, retired professors, and friends of Fredonia. Many alumni also played a key role in the facility’s planning and design via their roles on Fredonia’s Natural Science Advisory Committee.In addition to Rodriguez,

Hundreds of Fredonia students, professors, administrators and alumni joined elected offi cials to dedicate the campus’ new Science Center Friday morning, during a unique, “DNA-splicing” ceremony. The $60 million project is being seen by many as a powerful example of the broader and more diverse academic expertise that has been steadily occurring at Fredonia. Submitted Photo.

COMMENTARY: rights based on truth, not feelingT

HIS

Scott WiseEditor

There is such an abun-dance of nonsensical ridiculousness transpir-ing in current events that I don’t even know where to begin with this weeks commen-tary. For instance, an online video, currently going viral. Nothing new there, videos go viral all the time nowadays. This video, though, is what’s of particular interest, and particular concern. A number of girls, and one very confused little boy, all within a few years of the age of ten, are put in front of a camera and taught to cuss their brains out in an eff ort to dispel what is clearly an exagger-ated view on sexism.Why it’s wrong: Little girls should taught to be little girls, they should not be cussing machines. And they certainly should not be used in an attempt to

dispel one small section of society’s disgruntled loons. And to clarify, I’m not speaking on ‘women’ as a whole, but merely the thought that it’s appropriate to take a precious little girl and teach her the ins and outs of the dark side before she’s even hit puberty.Second, the situation going on in Idaho right now. If you don’t know, a woman and a man, both ordained min-isters, are fi ghting for their business. Again. Why? Because another couple, living in a free country, chose not to provide business to people who are choos-ing to marry a member of the same sex.This has happened nu-merous times already (read: bakery in Or-egon, farm in upstate New York, just to name a few of the more pub-licized occasions). The argument, as it were, is that ‘if it were a not-for-profi t there wouldn’t be an issue.’Oh, really? Is that en-tirely true? Maybe right this minute it is, but let’s not be foolish and thing it’ll stop there. Give an inch, and take a mile. Infringing on the rights of free men and women for choos-ing to support their own beliefs is just a

step in the direction of tragedy.See, folks, here’s the underlying theme. I touched on this last week, but let’s bring it out again. There seems to be a nature that has arisen in our ‘free’ na-tion, that ‘rights’ and ‘freedoms’ suddenly become as powerful as ‘tastes’ and ‘fl avors.’What do I mean?A right, by defi nition, is “a justifi ed claim or entitlement, or the free-dom to do something.” The right to vote for leadership is given, and should be given, to ev-ery free person. Actu-ally, freedom is given, and should be given, to every living person. But, that freedom does not include the freedom to persecute others for not sharing one’s own beliefs. That is not a ‘right,’ it is wrong.In history, we have a time known as The Middle Ages. Whatever you believe the cause of this time was (person-ally, I think the Chruch as a whole lacked reve-lation of what the Bible really was, and how it was to be interpreted which led to a time of great suff ering for humanity as a whole), it cannot be disputed that the Church had an im-mense amount of power

it wielded wrongly. The arm of the Church stretched out and killed anyone who disagreed, which was in staunch disagreement with the teaching of Jesus Christ and the New Testa-ment.That being said, those violations do not give modern-day faith-less and non-religious individuals the right to persecute the Church. If my father were to commit a crime and go to prison, you could not rightfully punish me for it – at least not in our civilized society.All of this goes to prove one simple fact – the motivation to destroy the Church, and free-dom as a whole, is not based in right thinking. It is based in jealousy and angst, emotions generated by evil. I pray for this great na-tion, for our president and for our leaders, to make the right deci-sions and be surround-ed by the right people. Republican, Democrat, Libertarian, Green – it doesn’t matter to me. I just want leadership that will uphold right-ness based in truth, not feeling.Scott Wise is the editor of the Chautauqua Star.

This week we continue to highlight all our dogs that are six-months and older. We have many dif-ferent sizes, breeds, ages and personalities. Emma, pictured, is a wonderful nine-year-old yellow lab that came to the shelter when her owner could no longer care for her. She is super sweet, does have some tummy issues and needs special food and is currently being treated for arthritis. She is a great dog for someone looking for a pet that doesn’t need to be exercised for hours each day. If you can provide a great home and receive all the love you can handle in return, stop by the Strunk Road Adoption Center and meet Emma or any of her other friends just waiting for a second chance. Remember all dogs and cats over 6 months old are No Fee Adoptions!!

In Chautauqua County, health offi cials have been working with the New York State Depart-ment of Health, Emer-gency Services staff , law enforcement, local hospitals and physicians to ensure they are ready if a suspected Ebola case presents to our emergen-

cy response system or to one of our health care facilities. “We have done a tremendous amount of planning, have estab-lished protocols and are fortunate to have such dynamic working relationships already in place,” said Christine Schuyler, Public Health Director. “We will con-tinue to work with all of our partners and make adjustments as necessary

in the weeks and months to come in order to best protect Chautauqua County residents.”Health care providers have been instructed to ask about recent travel to West Africa and to assess symptoms, which include fever, severe headache, vomiting, di-arrhea and unexplained bleeding and bruising. The patient is to be isolated and lab tests

ordered. The samples would then be rushed to Albany, where state epidemiologists would test for the Ebola virus. The health department also has been in contact with hospitals in the County to make sure they have the capacity and proper facilities to isolate infected patients appropriately. “Preparation and

Pumpkin Cookies

By Katy WiseContributing Writer

Although we may have already had a couple of pumpkin recipes, here is yet another one. Has anyone noticed the surplus of pumpkin recipes lately?They’re everywhere, and I am not complaining about that.Pumpkin flavored goodies are one of the many bonuses of autumn, and before you know it, it will be gingerbread and candy canes instead.So let’s take advantage of the pumpkin abundance while we can, and explore at least one more recipe that captures the flavor of the season.

PuMPkiN COOkiES

Ingredients Needed:

2 C. Butter, softened

2 C. Granulated sugar

2 tsp. Vanilla extract

15 oz. Pumpkin puree

2 Eggs

2 tsp. Baking powder

2 tsp. Baking soda

1 tsp. Salt

1 tsp. Cinnamon

1 tsp. Nutmeg, optional

4 C. All-purpose flour

Instructions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare cookie sheets to your own preference, parchment paper is highly recommended. Really, if you haven’t tried this stuff yet, it is awesome!In a large mixing bowl, beat softened butter until creamy (about 30-45 seconds.)Add sugar and vanilla extract, mixing well. Beat in eggs and pumpkin puree, scraping sides of bowl occasionally.Add all of the dry ingredients, adding 1 cup of flour at a time. You may have to stir the last cup of flour in using a wooden spoon.Plop large heaping teaspoonfuls of cookie dough onto your cookie sheet. Yes, ‘plop’ is a perfectly ac-ceptable baking term, at least here at HBK. Bake for 10-12 minutes, allow cookies to set for 1 minute on cookie sheet before transferring to a wire cooling rack.Enjoy as they are, or top with frosting. Cream cheese frosting, or even simple powdered sugar icing with a little bit of cinnamon would be perfect on these cookies.For powdered sugar icing, melt one stick of butter in the microwave, then add between three-four cups of powdered sugar. If frosting gets too thick, add hot water by the teaspoonful until you reach a drizzling consistency. You can either add cinnamon directly to icing, or sprinkle on top for garnish.As always, thanks for reading, and happy pumpkin everything season!

On Saturday, Nov. 1 the crowds will once again descend on the Gateway Center (31 Water Street, in Jame-stown) for the Community Helping Hands’ Emporium, a fundraiser that can only be described as an event. This unique craft show features local vendors, who sell everything from arts and crafts, to food, to flea market items, and even more. There are games and activities for kids, free giveways to everyone who walks in the door, the opportunity to tour the Gateway Center, deals and steals from the CHH Thrift Stores and Furniture Showrooms, and what Ex-ecutive Director Rev. Amy Rohler describes as “the best gift basket auction ever!” Last year, the event

raised over $3000, and the staff is hoping to increase that figure, espe-cially since this year all the proceeds will go towards the purchase of a new donation truck. “Our current truck is past retire-ment,” says Rohler, who notes that the current truck has been in constant use for the last several years. The Community Helping Hands donation truck is used to pick up donations, as well as to deliver items that have been given away or sold in the store. Each year, this local organization helps hundreds of families in Chautauqua County with a “hand up” by providing emer-gency needs for clothing, household items and furniture. The truck picks up essential items like beds, dress-ers, couches, chairs, kitchen tables,

and lamps. Rohler says that between 60-70% of these items are given away to people who just move to the area or get out of prison, or who just fi nd themselves in a situation where resourc-es are limited. “There are so many people who don’t have mat-tresses to sleep on, pots and pans to cook with, or a table at which to eat or do homework on,” says Rohler, “and part of what we do is help make a home for their family.” The event goes from 9am-2pm, and this year features the op-portunity to meet the Southern Tier Express hockey team from the Jamestown Savings Bank Ice Arena, who will be volunteering in the morning. Rohler encourages people who

are interested in the gift basket auction to arrive early, as one of the rules of the auction is that a bidder can immediately take the basket or item they want if they are willing to double the last bid. One of the more unique items for auction is an antique French sideboard with brass hardware. Other baskets vary from kids crafts items to choco-late and coff ee baskets to a basket full of all things teddy bears. Lo-cal churches like First Presbyterian Church in Jamestown donated some of the baskets. “This truly is a com-munity eff ort,” says Rohler. To raise the funds needed for a new truck with also be a task accomplished with the support of the entire community, and

the organization plans to continue their fundraising eff orts throughout the end of the year. They will be asking for donations from local foundations, but are also looking for sponsors like local churches and business-es. Anyone interested in making a specifi c dona-tion for the truck may call the Community Helping Hands offi ce at (716) 487- 1488 and speak to Rev. Rohler. There are still spots for vendors, and anyone interested in selling something at the event may call the CHH offi ce for more informa-tion or for a registra-tion form Tables are $25 each or two for $40.

The Jamestown Re-naissance Corporation has announced that this year’s Christmas Parade and Holiday Celebration, titled Win-ter Wonderland, will be co-sponsored by The Resource Center and Lutheran Jamestown. The free event will be held along Third Street between Hallock Street and Prendergast Avenue on Friday, Dec. 5, with the parade will begin promptly at 6:30 p.m.“Selecting a holiday parade theme for the community is no easy task. We have to be mindful of themes we have already used and select something that is easy for all age groups and all organizations to participate in,” said Edwin Rodriguez Jr., events and marketing associate for the JRC. “The polar vortex will take over Third Street as Winter Wonder-land celebrates the snowy culture that our county is famous for,” said Rodriguez. Floats

and parade entries are encouraged to focus on white and blue, snow and ice, outdoor snow activities, snowmen and more.Hard copy parade applications will be mailed soon but busi-nesses can download the application in advance from the JRC website. Over 100 busi-nesses and social orga-nizations participated in the parade in 2013 with dozens of volun-teers helping make the parade go smoothly.“We’re excited to join The Resource Center in sponsoring the holi-day parade for another year,” said Tom Holt, president and CEO of Lutheran Jamestown. “This event has become a wonderful family tra-dition. Over the years, our employees, youth, and the seniors we serve have participated and enjoyed seeing the holiday spirit come alive downtown,” said Holt. Lutheran Jame-stown has sponsored the Christmas Parade and Holiday Celebra-tion for two years and The Resource Center is celebrating their tenth

anniversary as parade sponsor.“The Resource Cen-ter is proud to partner with Lutheran and the Jamestown Renaissance Corporation to pres-ent the holiday parade again this year. The parade brings together thousands of people who come downtown to be a part of this fan-tastic event,” said Paul Cesana, executive di-rector of The Resource Center. “The parade truly is a holiday tradi-tion that is enjoyed by so many people, and we’re happy to do our part to make this event a reality,” said Cesana. Sponsoring the holiday parade is just one way that The Resource Center demonstrates its commitment to the community, especially to those with the great-est needs. TRC also co-ordinates Chautauqua County’s U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots drive every year, making the holidays brighter for thousands of children.“We’re very thank-ful to have TRC and Lutheran Jamestown involved in the parade

for another year to sup-port this tremendous community event,” said Greg Lindquist, executive director for the JRC. “We also want to thank the downtown business community for their cooperation in this annual event as fi ve to eight thousand people come stand outside their doorsteps to enjoy this holiday celebra-tion together,” said Lindquist.Parade line up will be-gin at 5:00 pm on West Third Street between

Monroe Avenue and Hallock Street and travel east on Third Street to Tracy Plaza. This year’s event will feature pre-parade musical entertainment, a traditional tree light-ing ceremony at Tracy Plaza, and a fi reworks display from the Spring Street parking ramp. Street closures will oc-cur late morning on the day of the event.For more information on Jamestown Renais-sance Corporation special events or to sign

speakers included Presi-dent Horvath; President Emeritus Dennis Hefner, under whose leadership the building was de-signed and construction initiated; and Associate Professor Holly Lawson of the Department of Chemistry and Bio-chemistry, who served as Project Shepherd.After three years of construction vehicles, chain-link fences and re-routed traffic, Fredo-nians have finally begun to experience the vision that was discussed by architects, administra-tors and elected officials during the 2011 ground-breaking ceremony. The new facility has been open since the start of the semester, although a few components were still being completed. No one has minded the dust, however, for a build-ing that dramatically elevates the resources available to hundreds of students and dozens of faculty.The new facility serves about 500 students majoring in Biology, Chemistry, Biochemis-try, Molecular Genetics, Environmental Science, Medical Technology, Exercise Science and Science Education. It showcases students as they work alongside faculty mentors in a facility built to spotlight the art of science, with classrooms and labora-tories with glass walls facing inside corridors. It features flexible spaces that let students move seamlessly from lectures to hands-on learning, including a main audito-rium that allows for an instantaneous switch to small-group, collabora-

tive learning scenarios and applied learning. The new center encour-ages interdisciplinary research and teaching, and includes plenty of social learning spaces, such as a café and study alcoves, to spark creative collaboration.There are a total of 16 research labs, 10 teach-ing labs, two computer labs, two classrooms, a 120-seat auditorium, a café adjacent to the main lobby, a student reading room, a second-floor outdoor terrace, three conference rooms, an en-ergy efficient greenhouse and an observatory. The beautifully designed courtyard paving is laid out to resemble geologic strata reaching out to the Science Quad.The building’s plan-ning and construction processes followed Fredonia’s values and education mission. The university created a team of faculty and adminis-trators who, along with Director of Facilities Planning Markus Kes-sler, attended a workshop on science facility plan-ning. There they had the chance to talk with those who had recently built science buildings on campuses across the U.S. The team also required a project shepherd, and Dr. Lawson — known across campus for her zest for teaching and collaborative learning — was chosen unani-mously. She and other team members visited a number of institutions in several states to see what they had created — and what lessons they had learned.“From the start, this

building was designed to align with the ways sci-ence works now, and the best ways students can learn science,” explained President Horvath, who was Vice President for Academic Affairs at the time. “We came away with a clear sense of what Fredonia needed to support science learn-ing.”Many sustainable ele-ments have been incor-porated into the new facility, for which the university will pursue LEED Silver certifica-tion from the U.S. Green Building Council. They include three “garden” green roofs and energy-efficient heating/cooling systems; a unique storm water run-off system that prevents soil erosion and flooding; and an en-ergy- and water-efficient greenhouse.“This is exactly the kind of facility that we hoped for back in 2000-01,” President Emeritus Den-nis Hefner added. “This is the type of facility that Fredonia Science students deserve, and so desperately need, and I know that, with this facility and the dedicated science faculty who are on this campus, Fredonia will continue its tradition of produc-ing leaders in the field of science.”The project generated an average of 70 tradesmen construction jobs per day over the last three years, with 104 employed at its peak. The State University Construc-tion Fund served as the project manager, while construction manage-ment was performed by LeChase Construction

Services of Rochester, N.Y., and construction by The Pike Company, also of Rochester, which employed 48 subcontrac-tors.Other honored guests included College Coun-cil Chair Frank Pagano, and several elected officials including U.S. Congressman Tom Reed (23rd New York District); Lori Cornell, regional representative for Gov-ernor Andrew Cuomo; New York State Sena-tor Catharine Young (57th District); and New York State Assembly-man Andy Goodell (150th District). Steven Goldberg, a partner with Mitchell/Giurgola Architects, the New York City-based firm which designed the building, also spoke.“This building…repre-sents the best of the po-tential opportunities that I see coming down the horizon for the United States of America, and that is in our science, technology, engineer-ing and mathematics fields across America,” Congressman Reed said. “And now here, at Fre-donia, we’re going to be a part of that leadership that is going to bring that exciting develop-

ment in U.S. education forward.”New York State Gov-ernor Andrew Cuomo could not attend, but was represented by Lori Cornell. She shared that seven Fredonia stu-dents had been selected to receive full tuition scholarships through the governor’s recently an-nounced STEM incen-tive program.Governor Cuomo’s of-fice issued a supporting release as well, in which he said, “By offering un-paralleled research and learning opportunities to current students, as well as attracting future students interested in a variety of challenging disciplines, this facil-ity will help Fredonia continue to grow as a leading public university and allow our brightest young minds to thrive. I am excited to see this facility officially opened, and I encourage all who utilize it to push the boundaries of scientific knowledge.”“This really is about passing the torch,” added New York State Senator Cathy Young (57th District), who was instrumental in securing the state construction funds needed for this new facility. “[President Hefner] got this project

going… and [he] was able to pass that torch to President Horvath, who took it and ran with it, and we see the results of this today.“And that torch stands for igniting the pas-sion for learning…that thirst for knowledge,” she continued. “Our students are our hope for the future, and so you ignite that hope and that transformation and that infrastructure that we need in New York State. That’s really what today is all about.”Assemblyman Goodell closed the remarks by saying how proud he was to have been involved with this project, which motivated so many elect-ed officials to set aside party lines to ensure that it came to fruition. “We were focused on making a difference and moving this project forward,” he said. “This is more than just a celebration about Fredonia. It is really a celebration of our stu-dents, and our future.”The celebration was scheduled to continue well into the evening, including a special, science-themed alumni dinner in the Williams Center, as well as a free fireworks display for the whole campus and com-munity to enjoy.

Kurt Maytum, David Or-tolano and Peter Skurze-wski, representatives of the Chautauqua Fallen Heroes Scholarship Com-mittee, recently presented two scholarships from the Chautauqua Fallen Heroes Fund held at the Northern Chautauqua Community Foundation. Ashley Decker and Joseph Spacht were each award-ed a $500 scholarship to further their education in law enforcement.

Decker, daughter of Marijah Gibber and Ron Decker, is a 2014 gradu-ate of Southwestern High School. She is currently attending Jamestown Community College ma-joring in Criminal Justice; Law Enforcement. In the essay that accompanied her scholarship appli-cation, Decker stated, “Becoming a police offi cer would be a great treasure to me. I would learn new things every day; I would be able to help keep my community safe and keep people from harm.” While attending

high school, Decker was involved in cheerleading and volleyball.Spacht, son of Jim and Shelly Spacht, is a 2014 graduate of Sher-man High School. He is currently attending Jamestown Commu-nity College for Criminal Justice and Fire Fighting. “I was raised to help my neighbors without expect-ing anything in return as my grandfather, my father and my brother have done. My career goal is to become a career fi refi ght-er because I want to help people in my community

and be a leader that other kids can look up to.” His volunteer activities includ-ed establishing the Ripley Hose Company, Station #2 Explorer Jr. Firefi ghter program when he was 14 years old. In high school, Spacht participated in football.The Chautauqua Fallen Heroes Fund was estab-lished at the NCCF in the fall of 2001. Its central purpose is to provide sup-port to the families of fi re-fi ghters, law enforcement offi cers, EMS personnel and other local uniformed county heroes killed or critically debilitated in the line of duty. To support and encourage those who are interested in careers in public safety, scholar-ships from this fund are awarded on an occasional basis. Applicants must be pursuing a career in law enforcement, fi refi ghting or emergency medical services.The NCCF was incor-porated in 1986 as a tax-exempt charitable organization. Since its establishment, the NCCF has distributed more than $9.5 million in the com-munity through its vari-ous grant programs. It is an organization inherent-ly committed to enriching the northern Chautauqua

community and encour-aging local philanthropy. For more information on

Chautauqua Institution is pleased to announce the selection of Rossen Milanov as the ninth music director of the Chautauqua Symphony Or-chestra. As music director, Milanov will serve as the principal conductor and artistic director of the CSO and as an advocate for the orchestra and the classical arts within and beyond the Chautauqua community. The 49-year-old Bulgarian-born conductor will begin his responsibilities immedi-ately in preparation for his inaugural summer of residency in 2015. His public debut will take place at the CSO’s season-opening performance on Thursday, July 2, 2015, and he will conduct 10 concerts in the 2015, 2016 and 2017 seasons.“I am very excited and honored to be collaborating with the musicians of the Chautauqua Symphony Orchestra, to catalyze the artistic growth, introduce new ideas, diversify the program-ming and connect with all of the Chautauqua community in a mean-ingful and inspiring way!” Milanov said.In September, Milanov was selected as the Columbus Symphony Orches-tra’s next music director, beginning with the 2015–16 season. He is cur-rently music director of the Princeton Symphony Orchestra, music director of the professional training orchestra Symphony in C in Camden, New Jersey, and principal conductor of the Orquesta Sinfónica del Principado de Asturias in Spain. Milanov previously served as associate conductor of the Philadelphia Orchestra. At Chautau-qua, he joins a team of exceptional artistic directors who are each dedi-cated to tradition and innovation in the areas of orchestra, opera, theater, dance and visual arts.“I am very pleased to welcome Rossen Milanov to the Chautauqua commu-nity, an environment in which his re-markable skills and artistic sensibilities will flourish,” said Thomas M. Becker, president of Chautauqua Institution.

“In collaboration with the CSO, Mae-stro Milanov will engage Chautauqua audiences of all ages in an enriching relationship with great music and the artistry of gifted musicians.”Milanov’s appointment is the culmina-tion of a search and selection process led by Marty W. Merkley, Chautau-qua Institution vice president and director of programming, and Debo-rah Sunya Moore, associate director of programming.“Rossen was selected for his clear ability to craft bold programming, foster artistry at the highest level, and connect with our current and future community members in a relevant and meaningful way,” Merkley said. “The Institution is thrilled to welcome Maestro Milanov as a leader who will inspire a trajectory of artistic growth and evolution.”A formal Music Director Search Com-mittee provided counsel and recom-mendations to Merkley and Moore during the final phase of the process, evaluating each of the eight finalists in their appearances as guest conduc-tors throughout the 2014 season. The committee — composed of representa-tives from the CSO, the Institution’s board of trustees and the Chautauqua community — was aided by surveys completed by CSO musicians and audience members after each perfor-mance.“It was a joy to serve on the commit-tee with three of our amazing CSO musicians,” said Karen Arrison, a Chautauqua Institution trustee and Stradivari Society patron. “Their will-ingness and ability to rise above what may have been their personal opinions and focus on each candidate with the more global charge assigned to us was impressive. Maestro Milanov fit beau-tifully into that global charge, demon-strating a clear and exciting vision for the future of our beloved CSO.” Milanov led the CSO on July 10, 2014, in performances of the overture to Thomas Adès’ 2004 opera The Tempest, Rachmaninoff’s Symphonic Dances and Ravel’s Piano Concerto in G major, with guest pianist Di

Wu. Milanov previously appeared as a guest conductor at Chautauqua in 2013 and 2011.“The musicians are thrilled to wel-come Maestro Milanov into the Chautauqua family,” said Vahn Armstrong, associate concertmaster of the Chautauqua Symphony Orches-tra. “We look forward to beginning an exciting new chapter in the storied history of the CSO, and to expressing the Chautauqua mission through ever more vibrant, inspiring, and relevant performances of the great symphonic repertoire.”Milanov has collaborated with some of the world’s pre-eminent artists, including Yo-Yo Ma, Itzhak Perlman, Joshua Bell, Midori, Christian Tetzlaff and André Watts, as well as with such internationally esteemed vocalists as Nicolai Ghiaurov, Vesselina Kasa-rova, Angela Meade, Measha Brueg-gergosman, Anne Schwanewilms and Krassimira Stoyanova. During his 11-year tenure with the Philadelphia Orchestra, Milanov conducted more than 200 performances, as associate conductor and as artistic director of the orchestra’s summer home at the Mann Center for the Performing Arts. A well-known figure in North America, Milanov has appeared with numerous chamber, symphony and festival orchestras. Internationally, he has collaborated with orchestras throughout Europe, Australia, South America and the Far East. He is also noted for his versatility and is a wel-come presence in the worlds of opera and ballet.Milanov studied conducting at the Curtis Institute of Music and the Juilliard School, where he received the Bruno Walter Memorial Scholar-ship. He studied oboe and orchestral conducting at the Bulgarian National Academy of Music, and holds a mas-ter’s degree in oboe performance from Duquesne University. As the former chief conductor of the Bulgarian Na-tional Radio Orchestra and music di-rector of the New Symphony Orches-tra, Sofia, he received the Bulgarian Ministry’s Award for Extraordinary

Contribution to Bulgarian Culture. He was named Bulgaria’s Musician of the Year in 2005, among the top 100 most influential people in New Jersey in 2014 and won an ASCAP award in 2011 for his programming with Princ-eton Symphony Orchestra.“Rossen Milanov’s understanding of Chautauqua Institution and his clear desire to expand the symphony’s in-corporation into the community were particularly impressive,” said Anita Lin, a community member of the Mu-sic Director Search Committee and recent appointee to President Barack Obama’s Advisory Committee on the Arts. “The thorough search process revealed Mr. Milanov’s extraordinary passion for serving both as an advo-cate for the CSO and for the unique role Chautauqua plays in the Ameri-can cultural landscape.”The Chautauqua Symphony Orches-tra was founded in 1929 and today continues its legacy as the center of musical life at Chautauqua Institu-tion. Performing 20 concerts in the Amphitheater including two concerts accompanying Chautauqua Dance, and two productions in collaboration with Chautauqua Opera, the CSO is a tenured union orchestra that draws its membership from around the nation and around the world. It has grown from its original complement of 52 musicians to the current roster of 74 active members.The pre-eminent expression of lifelong learning in the United States, Chau-tauqua Institution comes alive each summer with a unique mix of fine and performing arts, lectures, interfaith worship and programs, and recre-ational activities. Over the course of nine weeks, more than 100,000 people visit Chautauqua and participate in programs, classes and community events for all ages — all within the beautiful setting of a historic lakeside village. Smithsonian magazine named Chautauqua as the No. 1 “Best Small Town to Visit in 2014” in the cover story of its April 2014 issue

Dear Pastor, I just don’t feel like I’m happy. Is something wrong with me?I’m glad you asked this question! This time of year always seems to be a big time for change. The school

year has settled into routine and the holiday fl urry hasn’t quite begun (but tell that to the retailers!). These “lull” times may cause people to reevaluate where they are in their own lives. It’s during this process that an individual may realize that they’re unsatisfi ed with their life. The problem may be, however, that they aren’t sure how they got to this point and so may be un-sure how to “get over it.” I believe, using God’s Word, that I can help free you from this burden and bring you to a place of living each day in God’s joy.As a Pastor, I’ve often had people sharing about their unhappiness. This is usually

followed-up (or proceeded by) long lists of the things that are wrong in their life. Money problems, relation-ship problems, health prob-lems, and/or a combination of all of these usually make the list of why they aren’t happy. Expecting me to “fi x” all their problems, they are usually quite surprised when I tell them “you don’t need to be happy….you need to be joyful!” What does this mean? Let’s begin with looking at the defi nition of happiness. When people talk about be-ing happy, they’re usually as-sociating happiness with the acquisition of “good things” and the deliverance from or absence of “bad stuff ”

in their lives. A sick person usually thinks, “I’ll be happy when I’m well.” A person with money problems is usually waiting for “his ship to come in.” This demon-strates the shortcomings of happiness. It’s dependant on circumstances. This makes us vulnerable and suggests that we cannot be happy un-less or until our problems are resolved. It also sets us up for the deception that unhap-piness is inevitable when we have to deal with problems.What does God say about happiness? Very little...if you defi ne happiness as “the absence of troubles.” He does, however, tell us a lot about “ joy”. Romans 14:17 says, “The Kingdom

of God is not a matter of what we eat or drink but of living a life of goodness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.” Joy is part of our inheritance!Next week we’ll look at of joy in contrast to happiness.

Most Americans are taking a careful and deliberate approach when it comes to their retirement plans, according to the recent Measuring Optimism, Out-look and Direction (M.O.O.D.) of America Survey conducted by Lincoln Financial Group. Among those who feel prepared, 77 percent believe they have saved enough to cover retirement expenses and 64 percent expect to be debt free during retirement.“While there are basic tips that apply to everyone, taking a holistic view of saving for retirement at the diff erent stages of your career can help you take a more thoughtful approach to achieving retirement readiness,” said Chuck Cornelio, President of Re-tirement Plan Services, Lincoln Financial Group.Cornelio off ers tips for savers at every career check-point:First JobCreate a monthly budget to prioritize your expenses as you begin your career. Include a line for retire-ment savings to help you get in the habit of contrib-uting regularly and managing your new paycheck accordingly. As soon as it’s available to you, enroll in your employer-sponsored retirement savings plan. At this stage you’ll want to save at least up to the

company match so you don’t leave money on the table.Changing or In Between JobsThroughout your career, you may fi nd yourself in between jobs or ready to pursue a new one. To help you better prepare for life’s unexpected events, it’s important to have emergency savings to cover at least a few months’ expenses.When looking for your next career move, consider the employer’s retirement benefi ts as part of your overall compensation package. Learn about the company match, investment options and resources to help you stay on track with retirement savings. Mid-CareerAt this point in your career, you likely have compet-ing savings priorities including mortgage and car payments, education expenses and more. At this stage you may be tempted to stop saving altogether or borrow from your plan. Resist the temptation. Keep up your momentum and continue to save as much as possible from every paycheck. Meet with a fi nancial professional to help look at your entire sav-ings picture and assess the best ways to maintain the momentum you’ve achieved so far.Career AdvancementAs you make more, save more. Increase your contri-butions and save extras from a bonus or any other

unexpected income boost. If you’ve maxed out your contributions in your employer-sponsored plan, talk to a professional about investment and savings op-tions that make sense at this point in your career.Near RetirementTake advantage of income guarantee options that may be available in your plan. It’s also important to understand social security benefi ts in addition to the other income sources you’ve secured along your savings journey.For more information visit www.LincolnFinancial.comWhen you take actions throughout your career, you can boost your retirement readiness and feel better prepared for the road ahead.

For some shoppers, buying a car means bringing it home before signing the papers. The most common reason for this is to see if the prospective car fi ts in the buyer's garage, but car shoppers may also want to bring a car home for a other reasons. These include seeing if an unusually large item (a musical instrument or a dog) fi ts inside and checking it out overnight. Can you actually bring a car home when you're on a test drive? Let us explain.How Far Is Home?For most dealerships,

it's a good sign when a driver wants to bring home a vehicle they're considering. It means that the driver is prob-ably very interested in the vehicle, and they want to try it out in a setting where they're more familiar. In many cases, whether or not a dealer lets you bring a car home on a test drive often depends on exactly how far away you live from the deal-ership.If you live relatively close to the dealer -- say, within 30 minutes -- you should have no problem bringing home the car, assuming you have a good reason for the excursion. If you're farther from the dealer, you might not be so

lucky. Many dealers probably aren't going to want a salesperson to leave the fl oor for several hours just so a customer can test out a car at home. Instead, the dealer may provide the customer with the vehicle's measurements and suggest that the customer measures the garage or the large item that needs to fi t

inside to fi nd out if it will work. Still, some dealers will allow a potential buyer to bring the vehicle home, even if "home" is a longer distance away.Overnight Test DrivesIn many cases, car dealers -- especially new-car dealers -- off er overnight test drives. This may seem like a surprising practice, but

dealers know that shop-pers are more likely to buy a car once they've had it at home, where they'll grow a little more comfortable with the idea of owning the car. As a result, over-night test drives aren't especially uncommon.If you're interested in an overnight test drive, we strongly suggest that you take a traditional test drive fi rst. Only once you've decided that the car is one you might be seriously interested in should you ask the dealership for an overnight test drive. An overnight test drive monopolizes dealer-ship resources and can be time-consuming for the dealership to set up and track. Plus, the

dealership carries some serious theft, damage and mileage risks by letting a customer bring a vehicle home for the night. Nonetheless, if it's important to you, don't be afraid to ask. For some customers, a more extensive test drive is a crucial part of the car-buying process.If you're buying a car and you need to bring it home, explain the situation to the dealer. You might be surprised to fi nd that many deal-erships will say yes -- whether it's for an hour or for a night.

Laurie Dutton has become a pioneer -- just months after earning her Fredonia degree – by helping to introduce ca-reer opportunities in the STEM (Science, Tech-nology, Engineering and Math) disciplines to elementary school students as an Ameri-Corps VISTA volunteer through the New York Campus Compact, a hub for service-learning based at Cornell Uni-versity.Building capacity in communities to fi ght poverty through edu-cation, among other means, has been a focal point of this national service program since its founding in the 1960s. Components of the current Ameri-

Corps VISTA program model include education (school readiness, K-12 success and post-sec-ondary success), healthy futures (obesity and ac-cess to health care) and economic opportunity (fi nancial literacy, hous-ing and employment).Dutton’s undertaking lies within education, but the 2014 Fredonia graduate is one of only three AmeriCorps VIS-TA volunteer working exclusively to advance STEM education in New York State. The other two are affi liated with Columbia Univer-sity and Stony Brook University.“This is a brand new initiative,” said Michael Jabot, professor of Cur-riculum and Instruction at Fredonia and Dutton’s sponsor.Dutton, the wife of a dairy farmer and a former stay-at-home mom with four children between the ages of 7 and 16, was in her late 30s when she went back to school. She earned an associate’s degree in Adolescence Education from Jamestown Com-munity College in 2011 before being awarded a bachelor’s in Childhood

Inclusive Education, with a concentration in Biology, from Fredonia. With that background, Dr. Jabot remarked, Dutton was the ideal candidate for this new mission.“Laurie is a perfect fi t,” he noted, pointing to Dutton’s elementary education training and strong background and interest in science. “She’s one of the best students I ever had, is very responsible and will make a great all-around future teacher.”Dutton is employing a “place-based” approach in her year-long AmeriCorps VISTA assignment. “We are bringing the community to student learning,” she explained. “When we are teaching about watersheds, we can map out where the students live and show them where their water goes. That’s the reason why we feel this is going to be a success. We’re going to engage students by connecting their world with learning.”She organized a sci-ence day in October for the entire student body of Dunkirk’s School 4 at Point Gratiot Park. “Students learned about

the watershed, about how the Great Lakes were formed, about pol-lution,” she explained.They rotated among seven learning activities using the “Great Lakes in My World,” a highly praised educational kit that features a variety of indoor and outdoor ac-tivities for K-8 students.“The students had a great time. I had one teacher tell me that a couple of her students had never touched sand before, so to me, that was a success,” Dutton said.Conducting commu-nity outreach events in targeted communities is a key objective identifi ed by Dutton to promote STEM careers and education. At the recent Agricultural Days, held in Sinclairville and hosted the Cornell Cooperative Extension Service, Dutton distrib-uted literature that con-nects STEM careers to the local 4-H program. She participates in meet-ings of two organiza-tions, the Western New York STEM Hub and Chautauqua County Education Coalition, which bring together school administrators

and industry leaders to discuss work-place skills and related concerns.Dutton has also met with area teachers to discuss the four-unit science lesson plan for fourth grade students that she and Dr. Jabot developed that draws communities into stu-dent learning through hands-on activities and inquiry-based learning. She plans to introduce this new curriculum at Sinclairville Elementary School in November.Also on her agenda is collaborating with Dream It. Do It West-ern New York, part of a national workforce development initiative to expand the pool of skilled workers in manu-facturing.Dutton will utilize customer-satisfaction surveys, for both stu-dents and teachers, to assess the eff ectiveness of her programs and initiatives.As a bonus, Dutton will

spend two weeks in Be-lize during January 2015 to work with Fredonia pre-service teacher can-didates at a school that serves special education students.Jabot, who collaborates with Dutton almost daily, envisions a greater use of AmeriCorps VISTA workers to pro-mote STEM education and careers. “There are so many opportunities in the STEM fi elds that I think it would be a missed opportunity not to introduce them earlier in the schools,” he said.Joining the AmeriCorps VISTA program was an opportunity that Dut-ton, whose career goal is to become a full-time teacher, couldn’t resist. “I was given the oppor-tunity to return to school later in life, and when I found out about this opportunity I thought it was a great idea to give back to my community. Science and biology have always been near and dear to me.”

vigilance with standard hygiene and infection control protocols are essential even though our risks are low in Chautauqua County,” said Schuyler. “Disease experts cannot empha-size enough that Ebola is not airborne. To catch the virus, a person must have close physical contact with the bodily fl uids of a person who is sickened by the virus or the dead body of an Ebola victim.”The New York State Department of Health has issued a Commis-sioner’s Order to all hospitals, diagnostic and treatment centers, and ambulance services in New York State, re-quiring that they meet training requirements for personal protective equipment and establish and follow protocols for identifi cation, isolation and medical evalua-tion and treatment of patients requiring care. As part of the State’s preparedness plan, unannounced drills currently occurring at hospitals and health care facilities will be expand-ed to college campuses as well as subway and mass transit areas. Ebola, previously known as Ebola hemorrhagic

fever, is a rare but often deadly disease caused by infection with one of the Ebola virus strains. Ebola can cause disease in humans and nonhu-man primates (monkeys, gorillas, and chimpan-zees). “Because we are entering fl u season and the initial symptoms of Ebola and infl uenza are generally the same, travel history is criti-cal,” said Schuyler. “We have a number of people living in Chautauqua County who regularly travel to Africa, often on mission trips, so it is not out of the realm of possibility that we could see travelers returning from the aff ected regions of Africa and we are prepared.” Schuyler says that as with any communi-cable disease, preven-tion is key. There is no FDA-approved vaccine available for Ebola. Individuals should practice careful hygiene; wash hands with soap and water or an alcohol-based hand sanitizer and avoid contact with blood and body fl uids. Do not handle items that may have come in contact with a sick person’s blood or body fl uids (such as clothes, bedding, needles, and

medical equipment). Ebola is not spread through the air. The Ebola virus can only be spread through direct contact - this means contact through broken skin or mucous mem-branes with:Blood or body fl uids (in-cluding but not limited to urine, saliva, sweat,

feces, vomit, breast milk, and semen) of a person who is sick with Ebola objects (like needles and syringes) that have been contaminated with the virus, infected animalsSymptoms of Ebola include fever (greater than 38.6°C or 101.5°F), severe headache, muscle pain, weakness, diar-

rhea, vomiting, abdomi-nal (stomach) pain, and unexplained hemor-rhage (bleeding or bruis-ing). Symptoms may ap-pear anywhere from 2 to 21 days after exposure to Ebola, but the average is 8 to 10 days. Recovery from Ebola depends on good supportive clinical care and the patient’s immune response.

People who recover from Ebola infection develop antibodies that last for at least 10 years.For more information, log on to www.cdc.gov. or www.health.ny.gov. or call the County’s Department of Health & Human Services, Public Health Division at 1-866-604-6789.

Sheridan, New York, located on the border of the town of Pomfret and the town of Ha-nover, may not be large by most defi nitions, but it plays a pivotal role in both commerce and business in northern Chautauqua County.The town, with a population that hov-ers just above 2,500 people, consists of both agricultural territory, and plays host to the Chautauqua County Airport.The area that makes up Sheridan was fi rst settled in the early 1800s, similar to much of what makes up the north county area. With the infl ux of state and federally funded roads, US Route 20, which steers through the heart of the little town, brought with it plenty of traffi c and business that provided Sheridan with the kick start it needed to

become the hometown it is today.Finding a home in Sheridan is the publicly owned Chautauqua County Airport, which boasts one of the fastest Citation aircrafts in the world. Based out of the airport is Dunkirk Aviation, a family owned and operated fl ight school.According to their website, dkk.com, “After several years of teaching U.S. Army Air Corp pilots how to fl y during World War II, John J. Nalbone Sr. founded a fl ight school at the Werle Airport nearby and began teaching civil-ians to fl y in late 1945. In 1958, he moved the fl ight school to its current location at the Dunkirk Airport. And in 1970, Dunkirk Aviation Flight School joined with the Cessna Aircraft Company to become one of the original Cessna Pilot Center charter mem-bers when Cessna founded the CPC

program of integrated fl ight training.”Other notable Sheri-dan landmarks are, of course, the volunteer fi re department, an

independent volunteer fi re department run by a board of fi re commis-sioners. And, a thriv-ing VFW Post, both located on Route 20 in

the heart of the town.Sheridan, like many Western New York towns, may not be a large presence in size or population, but it

fi lls the heart of the residents and the busi-nesses alike with pride in their land, heritage and legacy.

The annual “Terror in the Trees,” produced

by student members of the Interactive Theatre Society at the State University of New York at Fredonia, will once again haunt the Ring

Road Forest on Thurs-day, Oct. 23 and 30, Friday, Oct. 24 and 31, and Saturday, Oct. 25 and Nov. 1.

With the exception of Halloween night, the haunted, walk-through forest will be open from 8 p.m. until midnight. On Halloween night, Oct. 31, the event will be open until 1 a.m. for all those looking for a late night fright.“Terror in the Trees” is sponsored by the Interactive Theatre Society, which consists of many students across various majors who share a love for Hallow-een season and theater. The student-run club

builds and designs props, holds auditions for actors and most importantly, brings the Halloween spirit to the Fredonia campus and community. The haunted forest path for visitors includes student actors who transform into Halloween crea-tures and act out scenes as if they were part of a nightmare.Fredonia has a well-established tradition of Halloween festivi-ties supported by the Student Association, but student Mike Raisch made Hallow-een his main priority. Not only did Mike celebrate Halloween every fall semester, but he immersed himself in Halloween for four years straight. Mike “majored” in Hallow-een here at Fredonia through the Interdisci-plinary Studies pro-gram. He created his own major by advise-ment through business, theater and gothic

literature courses.As a fi rst-year student in 2006, Mike took on the full responsi-bility of re-vamping the annual outdoor Halloween event. He wanted students to have fun while participat-ing and learning in a creative environment. “Terror in the Trees” has continuously grown throughout the years as Fredonia’s prime Hal-loween attraction.Tickets for “Terror in the Trees” are avail-able at Fredonia Ticket Offi ce at the price of $4 for students and $5 for general admission. Tickets may also be purchased the night of the event for $5. For more information about “Terror in the Trees,” contact Eliza-beth Roman by phone at (631) 546-8358 or email at [email protected].

building on successFREDONiA MEN'S SWiMMiNg FEATuRES LOTS OF NEW FACES

Contributed ArticleFSU Sports Information Dept.

Last season, the men's swimming and diving team had its best-ever fi nish in the tenure of head Coach Arthur Wang with a second-place fi nish at the SUNYAC Meet. It will be a chal-lenge to maintain that success this year with the graduation loss of nine seniors. Still, Wang hopes to be in the top three in the conference by season's end, perhaps led by a strong sopho-more class.This year's edition features only two seniors and four juniors. Eleven fresh-man have been brought in to make up for graduation losses. Although only six sophomores are on the team, the class features the most overall talent.Team captains this year are senior Justin Hawes, junior Will Baker and sophomore Adam Clouthier.Hawes is described as one of the hard-est workers on the team and is very dedicated. He competes in the breast stroke and distance races. The only other senior, Chris Murray, special-izes in the butterfl y.Baker is the top returning freestyler. The other juniors are Liam Jones and diver Rafael Santiago. Jones earned points at the SUNYAC meet last year, fi nishing fi fth in the 100-yard but-terfl y.The strong sophomore class is headed by the All-SUNYAC Clouthier, who won the 200-yard breast stroke and set the Fredonia team and pool re-cords in that same event.Fellow sophomore Troy Lubanski was fourth in the 200-yard IM at SU-NYACs. Kris Harris (breast stroke/butterfl y) has a lot of potential and

should see improvement in his times this season.The freshmen class is made up of eight swimmers and a pair of divers. Coach Wang feels a number of them will eventually contribute, but as with a lot of freshmen, it may take some time.Wang pointed out a couple of fresh-men he thought would have an impact sooner than later. Jake Hewitt is "versatile in the fl y and distances." Wang also mentioned Steven Garcia. "He will help us in the breast stroke early on."Other freshmen swimmers include William Bradley, Julian Canavan, Mi-chael Craven, Graham Jones, Nathan Link and Matthew Travers. As has been the team tradition, the divers will add points to the Devils totals. Sophomore Jeff Matter was the Outstanding Diver at the SUNYAC meet as a freshman. Fellow sopho-more Arron Carlson was an Honor-able Mention All American, and is the team's " top diver with the attitude to go with it," said Wang.

Santiago is the veteran member of the divers. The junior was a qualifi er for the regional Zone Meet last year and just missed qualifying for the NCAA Meet.Three other divers waiting to climb the ranks are sophomore Jacob Storms and freshmen Alex Carl and Jordan Giordano. Wang feels this if things come together, any one of the three can qualify for the Zone Meet.The team opens up Saturday at Ithaca, where they take on the Bomb-ers and Brockport in a tri-meet.2013-14 All-SUNYAC Blue DevilsFirst Team John Estanislau 50 free, 100 freeAdam Clouthier 200 breast, 100 breastJeff Matter 1 meter dive, 3 meter diveSecond Team Adrian Van Hall 200 freeEric Jordan 100 back

The title of this commentary isn't just blowing smoke. The next statement I make might literally blow your minds. If you have a family history of having your minds blown, you should probably stop reading now.Continued on pg 25


Okay, anyone that is still reading, hang onto your hats. Here it comes:If the National Football League playoff s began today (Monday, Oct. 20), the National Foot-ball Conference teams that would earn byes into the second round would be the Dallas Cowboys and the Ari-zona Cardinals. Oh, and the Buff alo Bills would be playing in the wild card round. That sound you just heard was the millions (yes, millions) of readers that didn't heed my warning and just had their minds blown.To be fair, this is being written prior to the Monday Night Foot-ball game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Houston Texans. I'm fairly certain the winner of that game supplants the Bills as the last wild card team in the AFC, but seeing as how there are still 10 weeks of football, it's a little premature to think about that anyway.Do you know what it's not too early to look at?

My preseason predic-tions. Prior to looking back at them, I feel like most of my picks are looking pretty good except for the Cowboys inexplicably being 6-1. I had them picking in the top-10 in next year's draft for sure. So now I'll pull up my preseason article (starnewsdaily.com contains tons of past articles, etc.) and we'll comb through the divi-sions.AFC EASTCurrently the New England Patriots (5-2) lead the pack, but the Buff alo Bills (4-3) and the Miami Dolphins (3-3) are certainly within shouting distance with the New York Jets (1-6) a distant fourth. The Dolphins beat the Pats, the Pats beat the Bills and the Bills beat the Dolphins, so as of now, the tie-breaker scenarios are cloudy at best, but there are still plenty of head-to-head contests left on the schedule. The Patriots were an easy preseason pick to fi nish fi rst in this divi-sion and it certainly looks like they'll roll their way to another division title. The Bills are probably the big surprise here. I had them fi nishing last, but an unexpected 3-0 record against the NFC North has Buff alo look-ing okay in the stand-ings even if the team on the fi eld often looks less than impressive. Miami has looked great certain weeks and hor-rible others. The Jets have failed to navigate

a brutally diffi cult early schedule, but I still con-tend that they're better than a 1-6 team. My new projection would be Patriots, Dolphins, Bills, Jets in that order.AFC NORTHThere are surprises abound in this division. The Cincinnati Bengals (3-2-1) began the season with three straight wins and looked like the best team in the NFL, but have gone winless in three games since. They were my pick to win the division and I think they'll still do it. Injuries haven't been kind to the off ense, though, and Andy Dalton is struggling without his best receiv-ers (A.J. Green, Marvin Jones and Tyler Eifert). The Baltimore Ravens (5-2) have an impressive +89 point diff erential and are coming off of a thorough trouncing of the Atlanta Falcons. With a two-win lead on the Bengals, the Ravens have a com-fortable lead in the division, but all four teams are at .500 or better, so this race could be intriguing. The Pittsburgh Steelers (3-3) play the day this is being written, but have looked very unimpres-sive. They were kind of my surprise pick to fi nish second in this division, but that's not a pick I feel very comfortable about any more. The Cleveland Browns (3-3) tantalized their fans with that big win over the Steelers, but then followed that by getting trounced by the previously win-

less Jaguars. So yeah, another last-place fi nish wouldn't be surpris-ing. My new projection would be Bengals, Ra-vens, Steelers, Browns, which doesn't stray too much from my pre-season projections.AFC SOUTHPredicting the India-napolis Colts (5-2) to win this division was like shooting fi sh in a barrel. After winning fi ve games in a row, Andrew Luck and Co. basically have a stranglehold on this division and I'm quite confi dent that it's a lead they won't relinquish. The Colts are second to the Ravens with a +80 point diff erential. The Houston Texans (3-3) were the worst team in the NFL last sea-son, but have already outperformed last year's win total. I had them fi nishing third in the division and I'm going to stand by that despite their standing as second in the divi-

sion right now. I mean, Ryan Fitzpatrick is still their quarterback.The Tennessee Titans (2-5) have a lost some winnable games, such as last week against Washington, but have also been blown out a couple of times. The uncertain health of quarterback Jake Locker hasn't helped, but I still think they'll turn it around enough to take over second in the division. The Titans probably only fi nish about 6-10, but that's just how bad this division is. The Jack-sonville Jaguars (1-6) are horrid. Just horrid. They're an easy pick to still fi nish last. My new projection would be Colts, Titans, Texans, Jaguars in that order.AFC WESTHere's the fi rst (and possibly only, we'll see) division that I have completely right from top to bottom. The Denver Broncos (5-1) are clearly the class of

the division, if not the entire AFC, if not the entire NFL. Peyton Manning is now the all-time touchdown passes leader and shows no signs of slowing down. The San Diego Chargers (5-2) lost a game last week, but had won fi ve in a row until that point. Philip Rivers is playing very well and the Chargers will almost assuredly be in the playoff s when all is said and done.The Kansas City Chiefs (3-3) fi nished second last year, but probably outperformed the talent that is on the roster. At .500, the Chiefs are showing a bit more what they actually are. They'll continue to contend for a playoff spot, but might be left on the outside. The Oakland Raiders (0-6) are just a mess. Having already fi red their head coach, it's just a matter of try-ing to win ONE game

potsdam Rallies past devils in ot, 4-3Contributed ArticleFSU Sports Information Dept.

After a disappointing loss Friday against Platts-burgh, the Fredonia Blue Devils men's soccer team responded well in the first half of an im-portant SUNYAC men's soccer game Saturday afternoon against the Potsdam Bears.The Bears, however, would prove that they were up to the challenge in the second half to pull out a 4-3 overtime victory at University Stadium. Eduardo Figueroa picked up the decisive score for Potsdam after an long run down the field with 6:22 remaining in the first overtime.Ryan Keller (East Aurora, N.Y./East Aurora) scored two goals for the Blue Devils, and Paul Reinis (Webster, N.Y./Webster Schroeder) had one. Keller's second goal put the Blue Devils in the lead, 3-2, with 21:40 remaining.The Bears, who were down 2-0 at halftime, ral-lied once again with Stephen Auyer scoring the equalizer -- his second goal of the game -- in the 87th minute before Figueroa netted the game-winner 3:38 into the first overtime.Goalkeeper Sammy Torrelli (Akron, N.Y./Akron) made five saves in net for Fredonia.Cliff Bondi also scored for the Bears while Pots-dam goalkeeper Nick Davies made three saves.Reinis opened the scoring in the 19th with a move past a Potsdam defender inside the box and a quick shot. Two minutes later, Keller scored directly off his own free kick from outside the box to gave the Blue Devils a 2-0 lead.Potsdam cut the Fredonia lead in half four min-utes into the second half as Auyer unloaded a shot from outside the box. The Bears then evened the score in the 58th minute on Bondi's goal. It

followed a Potsdam shot and save by Torrelli. The ball stayed pinned against the right post before Bondi cleaned up the play.Fredonia pulled back ahead in the 69th minute as Keller crossed the ball into the box where Mohamed Hussein (Buffalo, N.Y./International Prep. School at Grover) was positioned. Hussein was taken down inside the box, resulting in a Blue Devil penalty kick. Head coach P.J. Gondek sent Keller out to take the kick and his shot was true.The Blue Devils held the lead until, with 2:49 remaining, Auyer blasted a ball through a maze of players on a play which began with a Potsdam throw-in. The game stayed tied until the end of regulation, and the two teams headed to over-time, which set the stage for Figueroa's heroics.

The Bears moved to 7-7-2 on the season, and 2-4-1 in conference play. Fredonia fell to 8-3-4 on the year, 2-2-3 in the SUNYAC. Fredonia returns to action Friday as they travel to Oneonta for another SUNYAC match-up. The Blue Devils will also be in action Saturday with another conference road game against New Paltz.NOTES: It was Senior Day at University Sta-dium, and A.J. Grecco (Kenmore, N.Y./St. Joeseph's Collegiate Institute), Michael Schriener (Spencerport, N.Y./Spencerport), Chase Lipshie (Port Jefferson Station, N.Y./Comsewogue), and Sam Guider (Webster, N.Y./Webster Thomas) were all honored prior to the start of the game ... The two goals by Keller give him five this season. He leads the Blue Devils in the category.

Eric Preston's contributions as a player during the most successful era of Fredonia men's hockey are hard to overlook, even if it took 20 years before he's being officially recog-nized.Preston will become the fifth mem-ber of the Blue Devil Frozen Four hockey teams to earn entry into the Fredonia Athletics Hall of Fame

during 2014 induction ceremonies as part of Homecoming 2014 Weekend. He's preceded by Craig Conley, Doug Florkowski, Jeff Lupu, and Jim Pinti.The Frozen Four teams will be recognized as part of the on-campus Hall of Fame dinner Saturday night at Cranston Marche. Preston finds that disconcerting. "I'm actually a little uncomfortable with it," he said. "Hockey is the ultimate team sport. All the other guys will be there get-ting recognized and I'll be the only

one standing up there going into the Hall of Fame."Four other former Blue Devils will be entering the Hall of Fame along with Preston: women's volleyball and basketball's Danielle Bleecker, base-ball's Matt Clark, women's volleyball and basketball's Heather (Martin) McIntosh, and softball's Heather Mercer.As a freshman, Preston was a member of the winningest team in program history, the 1993-94 team which went 29-1-4 and fin-

ished third in the nation. The Blue Devils were national runners-up the following year. Preston was 1993-94 SUNYAC Rookie of the Year, 1996-97 SUNYAC Second Team all-conference, made the SUNYAC all-tournament team twice, and was chosen for the Division III Senior All Star game. The Blue Devils were 85-28-13 during Preston's four sea-sons. It is the most successful run in men's hockey history, and one of the

Lost Cities: the board gameBy Sir Melvin PistachioOfficial Knight of the Card Table

The Kosmos two-player game line is one of the most popular board/card game prod-ucts in existence. One of those games is Lost Cities. This review is NOT about that game. This review is about Lost Cities: The Card Game. Sadly, Lost Cit-ies is out of print and quite pricey through the secondary market. But fear not, Lost Cit-ies: The Board Game is slightly easier to find, though also currently out of print. It's a game that frequents the table with the Knights of the Card Table. Let's take a closer look at it.BACKGROUNDLost Cities: The Board Game is designed by the great Reiner Knizia and was published by Rio Grande Games in 2008. It can be played with 2-4 play-ers. Having played with all three options, four players certainly is the best, but the game works just fine with two or three. The suggested age for this game is 8 and up, but there's no text and could easily be taught to a younger player. Playing time is listed at 30 minutes, but often takes more time than that.INTRODUCTIONLost Cities: The Board Game is clearly based on the original Lost Cities. The players take on the role of explorers

searching for treasure, artifacts, relics, etc. in an Indiana Jones-esque world. The components are very nice, consist-ing of a deck of cards, a mess of tiles and tokens, as well as four sets of different colored meeple. The game board is beautifully il-lustrated and the tokens are nice quality as well. The cards feature an easily overlooked, but very neat feature. Each of the five different col-ored cards shows one of the lost cities. But as the numbers increase, the picture of said city gets closer and closer.The game is extremely easy to learn and teach because the rulebook is very straightforward and simple. The game itself is very simply, in fact, but that doesn't make it bad by any means.MECHANICSThe goal of the game is to simply have the most money. The game can be played with either the short varient, which is only one round, or the long varient, which is three rounds. I'd always suggest the long varient as it's not really all that long, but gives a better experience.On a player's turn, they simply play one of the eight cards from their hand and then draw a card. That's it. Well, there's a little more to it than that, but that's really all a player's turn consists of.The game board shows five colored paths with each step of that path having a different point

value on it. The first step is worth -20, show-ing that you have to spend money to make money on this expedi-tion. But the final step of the path is worth 50 points. Points are turned in for money at the end of each round, so I'll be using the terms interchangeably.To advance one of the meeple down a path, cards of that color must be played in ascending order. Therefore, start-ing with a low number such as zero or one, gives a player much more room to build up on. Whereas starting with a six or seven doesn't leave much room to get that meeple down the path. Also, one of the five meeple is what my gaming group calls "the big kahuna" but it's basically just a slightly larger meeple. Whichever spot he's on at the end of the round is worth double the points. Moving him all the way to the end can be worth 100 points.There are three differ-ent types of tiles that are shuffled up and distributed throughout the paths at the begin-ning of each round. Landing on spots with those tiles will activate different abilities. The "bridge" tiles will allow that player to move any of his/her meeple one space forward on its track. This can be great to move that big kahuna along.There are also just straight point tiles. When a player lands on one of those spots, he/

she takes money from the supply and adds it to their stack. The tiles stay on the board and each other player can earn those points, too.The third type of tile are the artifacts. The rulebook refers to them as "artefacts" but I'll choose to spell it correctly. These aren't worth anything by themselves, but are scored at the end of the third round (or first if you're playing the short game). There is a track along the top of the game board that says how many points are scored for how many artifacts a player has collected during the game. These can be worth a ton of points.Each round lasts until either five different meeple have reached the seventh or later spot on a pathway or until the deck of cards runs out. One thing I forgot to mention was that instead of playing a card, a player can discard a card into one of five different dis-card piles (one for each color). The risk of this is that the other players can draw from those discard piles instead of

drawing from the top of the deck, so you have to be careful not to throw away cards that anoth-er player can use.OVERVIEWThis is a really fun game. I purchased it thinking it would be best with two players, like the original Lost Cities. That actually turned out to be the exact opposite case. It's okay with two players and pretty good with three players, but it's most enjoyable with four players.There's a ton of luck in this game, too. But if you're against playing board games with luck, then you're probably just going to play chess. However, it can be frus-trating when you sim-ply can't draw anything lower than eight while your opponent starts off all of their colors with zeros, ones and twos. It's fun to see how players attack different paths. I really like to scoop up as many of the artifacts as I can, but my wife is all about trying to get the free points scattered around the board. Another player in our game group almost solely concentrates on his big

kahuna. There's really no right way or wrong way to do it, which creates a lot of replay-ability. TO OWN OR NOT TO OWNThis is a very good game and one that I enjoy thoroughly, but I'm hesitant to call it a must-own game because it's out of print and therefore slightly expensive for what it is. You could spend $40 on eBay and get yourself a sealed copy of this game, but if you have $40 to spend on a game, I could recom-mend a bunch of better games. This is, however, a very family-friendly game. If you are a family of four and love playing board games, this one should be in your collection. Hopefully it will be reprinted.As always, if you're looking for great games at great prices, check out coolstufinc.com. It's where I buy all of my in-print games.

self-proclaimed expert picks: week 8By Stefan GestwickiStar Sports Editor

LAST WEEK VS. SPREAD: 7-8 (.467)LAST WEEK STRAIGHT PICKS: 10-5 (.667)SEASON VS. SPREAD: 51-53 (.490)SEASON STRAIGHT PICKS: 64-39-1 (.621)Make that three straight 10-win weeks. The Chiefs beating the Chargers is one of the bigger upsets that has paid off in this column, but once again the spread picks weren't the greatest. There were just a lot of close games last week in which teams didn't cover the spread. Once again, the self-proclaimed expert will try to be better this week.Let's not waste time. To the picks!BYE WEEK: NEW YORK GIANTS, SAN FRANCISCO 49ERSSAN DIEGO CHAR-GERS (5-2) at DEN-VER BRONCOS (5-1)Did you hear that

Peyton Manning broke the all-time touchdown passes record? I'm sure we won't hear anything about that during this Thursday night contest. While that's awe-some and Manning is certainly deserving of the title "best quarter-back of all time," this game has a whole lot more significance than history. First place in the AFC West in on the line.In one of the more unusual scheduling quirks of this season, the Broncos are set to play their fifth home game in their first seven games. So far, they've gone 4-0 in those games, so that abso-lutely can't be taken for granted. This is just a stellar team that is go-ing to be nigh impos-sible to knock off in the thin air of Denver. The Chargers are a solid team, but com'on, does anyone actually expect them to win this divi-sion?Phillip Rivers and Co. were just knocked off at home by the Chiefs, a loss that the self-proclaimed expert predicted in detail last week. They played a series of scrubs leading

up to last week's game and this one should be another punch in the mouth. Not only have they not played an offense like Denver's, but the Broncos defense could make Rivers' day a long one. Rookie running back Branden Oliver will need to be good to take some pressure off his quar-terback. PICK VS. SPREAD: Broncos (-7.5). STRAIGHT PICK: Broncos.GREEN BAY PACK-ERS (5-2) at NEW ORLEANS SAINTS (2-4)Here's a stat for you: Since throwing a Week 1 interception against Seattle (a throw that went in and out of the hand of wide receiver Jordy Nelson), Green Bay Packers quarter-back Aaron Rodgers has thrown 18 touch-downs and zero inter-ceptions. He's thrown at least three touch-downs with zero inter-ceptions in each of the last four games, setting an NFL record. Yeah, the guy is really, really good. Both Nelson and fellow wide receiver Randall Cobb have caught a touchdown in each of the last four games. Think about that for a minute. My goodness. The scariest part is that this offense probably hasn't even hit its full stride yet. Against a putrid Saints defense, this Packers offense could probably put up a 50-burger.The Saints totally blew it last week against an-other NFC North team

in their 24-23 loss to the Lions. It was a clas-sic Saints performance. Drew Brees threw for 342 yards, but the team only put up 23 points thanks to a pair of turnovers and a terrible running game. Mark Ingram is reportedly coming back from in-jury this week, but will he be the guy we saw in Weeks 1 and 2 of this year or will he be the guy we saw in years one and two of his career? The bottom line is that this is a Saints defense that was torched by Matthew Stafford, who was playing without Calvin Johnson. This is going to be to a red-hot Aaron Rodgers with his full cast of receiv-ers. There's no way the Saints slow that machine down. PICK VS. SPREAD: Pack-ers (+1). STRAIGHT PICK: Packers.DETROIT LIONS (5-2) at ATLANTA FALCONS (2-5)

In Atlanta, there's an-other matchup of a very good NFC North team against a fairly hor-rid NFC South team. While the Packers are dismantling the Saints, the Lions will be mak-ing the Falcons look like Pee-Wee League players. Yes, the Lions certainly got lucky to beat the Saints last week after Brees inexplicably threw a late intercep-tion and the defense decided it'd be a good idea to let Golden Tate simply walk through all 11 defenders on his way to the end zone. But as bad as the Saints are, the Falcons might actually be a worse team. Yes, the offense is okay, but then again, they put up all of seven points on the Ravens last week. And the Lions defense is much, much better than the Ravens. Being at home might help the Falcons, as they're an abysmal

0-4 on the road this season.If the Lions get Mega-tron back, look for the offense to really ex-plode. If not, the Lions still probably win this game, but it'll be much closer. The Falcons defense is just simply among the worst in the league. Until they fix those issues, the Falcons are doomed to waste the primes of Matt Ryan and Julio Jones. Actually, it'll be interesting to see if Mike Smith keeps his job as the losses pile up in Atlanta. PICK VS. SPREAD: Falcons (+4). STRAIGHT PICK: Lions.ST. LOUIS RAMS (2-4) at KANSAS CITY CHIEFS (3-3)Here's an intriguing matchup of last week's two upset darlings of the NFL. The Rams famously used special teams to knock off the

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jordy Nelson has been doing the Lambeau Leap an awful lot this season. He should find room to run against the Saints on Sunday. (AP Photo/Mike Roemer)

SELF-PROCLAiMED ExPERT PiCkS, CONTiNuED FROM PAgE 28defending champion Seahawks while the Chiefs simply used an efficient offense to keep Philip Rivers and the Chargers offense on the sideline.Rams quarterback Austin Davis has been better than expected. Maybe that's not even fair. This guy wasn't expected to do any-thing, let alone lead his team to a win against the Seahawks. The running game got a nice boost from rookie Tre Mason, but with Zac Stacy and Benny Cunningham still in the mix, it's tough to say who'll get the car-ries. The Rams were a feel-good story last week, but smoke and mirrors can only get you so far.The Chiefs' win was more legitimate, I think. They went on the road and simply outplayed their op-ponent. Alex Smith's stats are predictably unimpressive, but the running game is among the best in the league. Someone in the receiving corps needs to step up and provide Smith a reli-able weapon, however, or this offense won't be good enough to carry this team to the playoffs. The defense

should be able to stop the Rams offense in this one, especially with the raucous Arrow-head Stadium crowd behind them. PICK VS. SPREAD: Rams (+6.5). STRAIGHT PICK: Chiefs.HOUSTON TEX-ANS (3-4) at TEN-NESSEE TITANS (2-5)Ah, the old battle for the middle of the divi-sion. What draws view-ers better than a pair of mediocre, sub-.500 teams that have terrible quarterback play, aver-age defenses and no chance of winning the Super Bowl?At least the Houston Texans have a couple of superstars on their roster, but that almost makes them less watch-able. For instance, you would have thought J.J. Watt was the only player on either team during Monday Night Football's game against the Steelers last week. Even on runs away from Watt, the an-nouncers would com-ment that "Watt is in pursuit" even when he was blocked cold 15 yards behind the play. Yes, Watt is a transcen-dent player. Yes, he seems like a super nice guy. Yes, he's a Wiscon-sin Badger. But enough

is enough. If the Texans win this game, it'll be on the legs of Arian Foster. He has looked awesome this year.The Titans have noth-ing going for them. They lost a game to Colt McCoy last week. They have already taken themselves out of the running for No. 1 pick in next year's draft by accidentally winning two games, but this is not a good team. There's not much more to be said about the Titans. PICK VS. SPREAD: Texans (-1.5). STRAIGHT PICK: Texans.MINNESOTA VIKINGS (2-5) at TAMPA BAY BUC-CANEERS (1-5)Oof. And you thought the Texans-Titans game was unwatchable. The Vikings lost on a last-second touchdown by the Bills last week. This game will be their second straight road game and that is always a red flag, especially when the team is al-ready pretty lousy. Yes, the Vikings are lousy. Teddy Bridgewater has shown flashes, but he was not good at all against the Bills. The running game didn't get going. The defense couldn't stop Kyle Orton when it mattered most. The Bucs are coming off of their bye and now hosting a team play-ing its second straight road game. Normally, that's a recipe for an easy win, but this is the Bucs we're talking about. We're talking about a team with Mike Glennon as its

starting quarterback. That said, teams com-ing off byes generally have an advantage. Even though the Bucs are 0-3 at home so far. The Tampa heat might play a part in this one. PICK VS. SPREAD: Buccaneers (-3). STRAIGHT PICK: Buccaneers. SEATTLE SEA-HAWKS (3-3) at CAROLINA PAN-THERS (3-3-1)Three weeks ago, these two teams seemed like they were on a collision course for the NFC Championship game. As it stands right now, the Panthers would make the playoffs, but only because the NFC South is terrible. The Seahawks, the defend-ing Super Bowl cham-pions, wouldn't even be playing a playoff game.The problem for both teams is the defense. The Panthers lost Greg Hardy to a suspension, but no one could have seen this total col-lapse coming. They've allowed 30+ points in four straight games.

While the Seahawks don't have the highest-powered offense in the league, they're certainly capable of putting up another 30 points. The advantage the Panthers have is that the game is at home. Seattle is a long ways from Caro-lina and the weather is very different. History might be on Carolina's side.Seattle unexpect-edly traded away Percy Harvin. They gave up a first-rounder, a third-rounder and a whole lot of guaranteed money for eight games with Harvin. The Seahawks won the Super Bowl, so I suppose you could argue that it was worth it, but it'll be interesting to hear the facts about what Harvin did in Seattle that made him get the boot so quickly. They're 0-1 without him, but Doug Baldwin will finally get a chance to prove just how good he is. Russell Wilson will also step it up. PICK VS. SPREAD: Panthers (+5). STRAIGHT PICK:

Seahawks.BALTIMORE RA-VENS (5-2) at CIN-CINNATI BENGALS (3-2-1)This game comes at either the perfect time or the worst time for the Bengals. Sure, they haven't won a game in their last three tries. Sure, their offense is struggling and their defense can't stop anyone. But this is a home game against the team they're chasing in the division. The home crowd is going to be rowdy and stud receiver A.J. Green might just be back in action.It's definitely too early to call this one a must-win game, but the Bengals are probably looking at it that way. Andy Dalton was sim-ply awful last week and he's going to have to turn it around against a Ravens defense that al-lowed just seven points to the high-powered Falcons offense. Gio

vanni Bernard was held in check last week, too, but he'll need to be a playmaker in this one. The Bengals are unde-feated (2-0-1) at home, so they'll be happy to be back in Cincy. Joe Flacco led the Ravens to another easy win last week. At 5-2, they've certainly exceeded expectations once the Ray Rice events went down. This is a tough team. Steve Smith and Torrey Smith have been very good at wide receiver and Justin Forsett has been solid at running back. They're going to do damage against a Bengals defense that has struggled lately. AFC North games are always hard-hitting battles. Both teams want this one. PICK VS. SPREAD: Ravens (+1). STRAIGHT PICK: Ravens.MIAMI DOLPHINS (3-3) at JACKSON-VILLE JAGUARS (1-6)While this is techni-cally a road game for the Dolphins, don't be surprised to see a whole lot of Miami teal in the stands in Jack-sonville. The Jaguars are terrible once again and fans aren't exactly flocking to see their team clobbered.Miami has played well lately. After nearly knocking off the Pack-ers on the road, the Dolphins handled the Bears with relative ease last week. The pass rush has been as advertised and could make a long day for NFL interception

leader Blake Bortles. Ryan Tannehill has shown great improve-ment the last few weeks and should be able to continue his hot streak against the Jags.Bortles, meanwhile, has seemingly taken steps back the last few weeks, despite earning a win last week. The defense was surprisingly stout against the Browns last week, but that seemed to be an outlier in an otherwise terrible sea-son. Denard Robinson was something of a rev-elation as the starting running back last week, but let's remember that this guy was a college quarterback, so let's not get carried away. PICK VS. SPREAD: Dolphins (-5.5). STRAIGHT PICK: Dolphins.CHICAGO BEARS (3-4) at NEW ENG-LAND PATRIOTS (5-2)Here's another match-up of teams headed in very opposite direc-tions. The Patriots have won three straight games after getting clobbered on national television. This is a team that has a Hall of Fame quarterback, a Hall of Fame coach and plenty of weapons on both sides of the ball. The Pats are 3-0 at home and have had 10 days to prepare for this game after last playing on Thursday night against the Jets. Yes, there are some ma-jor injury concerns, but haven't we all learned our lesson about doubt-ing the Patriots?The Bears will simply never win consistently

with Jay Cutler at quar-terback. The guy has been around forever now and has always been the same player. When he takes care of the ball, his team wins. When he's careless, they lose. It sounds like a simple solution, but Cutler continues to throw inexcusable interceptions. This is an offense that should lead the NFL in scor-ing, but instead they're somewhere in the middle. The defense has actually been bet-ter than many people expected, but in a brutal division, 3-4 isn't going to cut it. PICK VS. SPREAD: Bears (+6.5). STRAIGHT PICK: Patriots.BUFFALO BILLS (4-3) at NEW YORK JETS (1-6)Here's a game that almost no one outside of New York State cares about, but will certainly be the center of attention throughout the state on Sunday afternoon. The Bills are 2-1 since Kyle Orton was named starting quarterback for E.J. Manuel. Orton's been far from great, but when fans are used to trash, even average looks pretty great.The issue for the Bills is injuries to the running backs. Both Fred Jackson and C.J. Spiller are out for an extended time after being hurt in last week's win. Bryce Brown will get his first action as a Bill and Boobie Dixon will also get some car-ries, though he hardly looked like an every down back last week.

Sammy Watkins has been as advertised, catching a pair of touchdowns last week. The Jets' secondary has no one that can even come close to matching up with Watkins.The Jets offense will include a new wrinkle this week as Percy Harvin will be making his debut. He comes with a big name, but he had been anything but productive with Seattle this season. Geno Smith has no excuses now. He's got Eric Decker and Har-vin. That's a solid 1-2 punch. Chris Ivory has been great running the ball, but the Bills have been among the best in the league at taking away the run. They'd be wise to keep that up and make Geno try to win the game. The odds of that happening are pretty slim. In the Jets' defense, however, they've played Aaron Rodgers, Jay Cutler, Matthew Stafford, Phillip Rivers, Peyton Manning and Tom Brady in their last six games. Few teams would do well in that stretch. PICK VS. SPREAD: Bills (+3). STRAIGHT PICK: Bills.PHILADELPHIA EAGLES (5-1) at ARIZONA CARDI-NALS (5-1)This game isn't just for the birds. Get it? Birds? Anyway, this game has enormous playoff ramifications already. One of these two teams will jump out to 6-1, meaning a .500 record down the stretch prob-ably still gets them into

the playoffs. For the Cardinals, another win would go a long way towards winning that brutal NFC West while the Eagles are trying to keep pace with the Cowboys.The Eagles were off last week and fans are hop-ing that the offense got right during that break. The defense hasn't actually allowed points in the last two weeks as that unit pitched a shut-out the game before the bye. Going on the road in the NFL is never easy, but it's slightly easier when coming off the bye. LeSean McCoy showed signs of life before the bye, but quarterback Nick Foles must be better. Arizona has a history of strug-gling against the tight

end, so perhaps Foles looks for Zach Ertz in this one.The Cardinals got Carson Palmer back a couple weeks ago and he continues to lead this team to victories. Andre Ellington is an all-purpose yards monster while Mi-chael Floyd and Larry Fitzgerald make up one of the league's better wide receiver tandems. It's said every week, but what this defense is doing with all the injuries it's suffered is astounding. This might be Arizona's biggest test thus far. PICK VS. SPREAD: Cardinals (-2.5). STRAIGHT PICK: Cardinals.OAKLAND RAID-ERS (0-6) at

CLEVELAND BROWNS (3-3)Karma can be a…un-pleasant person. After Browns fans spent a week gloating about beating the snot out of the rival Steelers, the Browns went down to Jacksonville and be-came the Jaguars' first (and possibly only) vic-tim of the season. Brian Hoyer was simply dreadful in that game, leading to more talk of Johnny Manziel taking over at quarterback.While that might be a little extreme after one bad game, Hoyer must improve. If the Browns lose back-to-back games against previ-ously winless teams, the entire city of Cleveland might just implode. Luckily, the Raiders might actually be worse than the Jaguars (if that's physically possi-ble) and this game is at home. Look for more of the running game out of the Browns offense.The Raiders are trash.

PICK VS. SPREAD: Browns (-7). STRAIGHT PICK: Browns.INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (5-2) at PITTSBURGH STEELERS (4-3)Someone has to put an end to the Colts' five-game winning streak, right? Well, maybe, but it won't be the Steelers.The Colts do one thing very, very well — throw the ball with Andrew Luck, T.Y. Hilton, Reggie Wayne and Co. The Steelers have little-to-no pass rush. Luck is going to have all the time in the world to find his receiv-ers and there's no doubt that he'll do just that. Indianapolis has all the pieces to jump out to an early lead and Pitts-burgh simply doesn't have the tools to erase a big deficit.For the Steelers to win this game, they'll need to be effective on third down and keep Luck off the field. Le'Veon

Bell is having a nice season and he'll have to run hard against an underrated defense. Antonio Brown has been relatively quiet the last few weeks, too. He might be in for a breakout performance. Trent Richardson might be out, too, which would give the Steelers a slight advan-tage on defense. The Colts are pretty one-di-mensional anyway, but that would almost take away the running game all together. PICK VS. SPREAD: Colts (-3.5). STRAIGHT PICK: Colts.WASHINGTON FOOTBALL TEAM (2-5) at DALLAS COWBOYS (6-1)Two words define this game: Colt McCoy. Remember him? Yeah, he's the starting quar-terback for the Football Team.Dallas has been beating everyone in sight. Bad quarterbacks, Super Bowl-winning quarter-

back, it hasn't mat-tered. The Cowboys just keep winning. If you think McCoy is go-ing to be the one to ex-pose the Dallas defense, well, you probably have never watched football before. The Football Team did beat the Titans on a last-second field goal last week, but the Titans are horrible. The Cowboys are not.

While concerns about DeMarco Murray's health as the season wears on are valid, the Cowboys are prob-ably doing the right thing by riding the hot hand. Win games while you can. There's no guarantee he won't get hurt even if you're giving him 10 carries per game. He's going over 100 yards every

game and against Washington, it's all but a foregone conclu-sion that he'll do it again. Washington lost linebacker Brian Orakpo for the season, so that's a big blow to an already bad defense. PICK VS. SPREAD: Football Team (+10). STRAIGHT PICK: Cowboys.

nication during that year. When I finally decided to play at Fredonia, I pointed Coach in the direction of my brother, Brad, who was then playing at Northwood. That's how Brad and I got to play as freshmen together in college at the same time."QUESTION: What are some of your favorite games/memories?PRESTON: "Don't know if I have a favorite game, I just loved game time period. Every game to me was like playing for the national champion-ship. Sure there were big games like those against Plattsburgh, who was always good. And the NCAA games against River Falls and Middlebury and games against Salem. I also re-

member the RIT Tournament when I was the MVP. But there's none where one stands out over the oth-ers. I just loved to play and win. As a 41-year-old looking back on a four-year time frame from so many years ago, I just look back and think of the times with the guys in the room. I'm actually a little uncomfortable with the induction because hockey is the ultimate team sport. All the other guys will be there getting recognized and I'll be the only one standing up there going into the Hall of Fame."

QUESTION: Is there something you learned from your playing days at Fredonia that you still use today?PRESTON: "Hard work. Team

work. Perseverance. It was more life lessons than X's and O's of hockey."

QUESTION: How does it make you feel to be recognized like this?PRESTON: "It was great when I found out. Coach Prechtl actually threw me a curve ball. He pretended he was asking for a donation. I believed him because it had been 20-years since I had played and I didn't think (getting into the Hall of Fame) could happen. He said some-thing like 'we're trying to finance something for the hockey team … then he said, 'actually, I'm calling to say you were voted into the Hall of Fame.' I was honored and humbled."

Local Charter Recognizes purple Heart Recipients with annual Fishing expedition

Contributed ArticlePatricia Pihl

The phrase “Support our Troops,” often seen on bumper stickers and elsewhere, seemed hollow to Fred Forsythe – or Captain Fred For-sythe – a parent of an Iraqi combat injured veteran and Purple Heart recipient. Knowing first hand the struggles his son and his friends lived through and continue to deal with, Forsythe, who is the owner of Cast-Away Charters in Barcelona, NY, decided to make a difference doing something familiar to him. “Since fishing is my passion and what I do, we decided to seek out combat-injured soldiers…to offer them a complimentary day of fish-ing.” Forsythe and his wife Darlene were supporters of The LEEK Hunting Preserve in North Central Pennsyl-vania, which provides hunting, fish-ing and recreational experiences to disabled veterans. He initially called LEEK’s director offering his charter to those attending there, but instead was given a referral to Fort Drum, which drew soldiers as far away as California and Wyoming. Today, through their efforts, the Forsythe’s have no problem finding eligible men and women for what is called “Fishing with Heroes” week-end. The only qualification is that they be Purple Heart recipients.“We want and we hope that this is part of the healing process for them and at the very least, we want to say thank you – not just from myself and my wife, but for all those who spon-sor it.” More than just the fishing experi-ence, FWH provides injured soldiers with an all-expense paid weekend as a way to provide an enjoyable expe-rience, mixing fishing with fellow-ship, in recognition of their service to their country. According to Forsythe, each year 16

soldiers are invited to participate. This year, however, FWH received 24,requiring five boats, including those from other charters. Since 2010, 82 combat wounded soldiers have participated in the weekend excursion, with most coming from the local New York and Pennsylva-nia area. The majority of soldiers, in their 20s and 30s, served in the recent campaigns in Afghanistan and Iraq, Forsythe states. In addition to its annual weekend event, FWH offers one-day fishing trips with room and meals at no charge over the summer. This year heroes were greeted at the Blue Water Beach Campground in Barcelona, where they met at a large hall decorated in their honor. They were fed a hearty fare of barbe-cued ribs and chicken, prepared by volunteers. Also included during the weekend was lodging, and paid fish-ing licensing fees.Forsythe quotes Mel Kramer, a soldier from Youngstown, PA who responded to the experience by saying, “ If I died tonight, I’d have to say that this has been my most enjoyable time on earth.’ ”To Capt. Forsythe, it’s the strength of character that stands out in so many of the men and women he meets. “One soldier, Lonnie Gaudet from Wayland, NY, wanted to be in the military all his life. Lonnie went to Afghanistan and he was twice blown up with an (IED) improvised explosive device. In the second explosion, he lost his right leg below the knee.”In spite of this experience, Forsythe states, “this young man, 28 years old, is the most optimistic person I’ve ever met. He goes into class-rooms in schools and churches and tells the kids how proud he is to be an American and how he would sacrifice losing his leg again as his way of doing his part to keep this country protected.”William Pihl is the oldest hero to

participate and the first World War II veteran. The 88-year-old from Ashville, NY was burned when a kamikaze plane crashed into his aircraft carrier, The USS Essex, in the South Pacific in 1944. An avid fisherman, Pihl states, “I was fortunate to be on Captain Forsythe’s boat and we caught many walleyes and trout. It was an ideal fishing day with only a very light rain and no wind; the lake was almost perfect for our activities.” He adds, “We were thoroughly taken care of in every sense of the word.” Pihl would win a trophy for the heaviest fish during the annual mid-July fishing outing. During the fishing get-a-way, Pihl said he roomed with another hero who had driven over 400 miles (round trip) from his home in PA to participate, bringing a $500 dona-tion from his local American Legion to support the program. Pihl added that he also shared a boat with one of two amputees who took part in this year’s FWH.With over 30 sponsors for this year’s

event, Forsythe explains, “We have never had an issue for finances. “We talk to people and they are more than willing to donate. There are so many people looking for a viable way to support our troops.” Sponsors include the Disabled American Veterans, (DAV) the American Legion and the Veterans of Foreign Wars, (VFW), sports-men’s clubs as well as Forsythe’s family and other individuals. Sponsorships come in the form of both cash donations and goods and services such as the Barcelona res-taurants, Forsythe explains, which offer free or discounted meals as well as assistance from other fishing charters.For more information on “Fishing with Heroes” or to become a spon-sor, visit www.castawaycharters.net, or email Capt.

Licenses can also be purchased by phone at 1-866-933-2257.Lake Erie & Tribu-tariesLate season yellow perch action can be excellent, and this year has been no exception. Some good catches have been reported this week outside 60 feet of water between Cat-taraugus Creek and Evangola State Park. In addition, recent DEC trawling surveys have shown large numbers of perch in 60-80 feet between Silver Creek and Eighteenmile Creek, especially off Stur-

geon Point. Search-ing around for perch schools on the bottom before dropping an-chor usually pays off . Many successful Lake Erie perch anglers employ a fl uorocar-bon rig, as opposed to fl ashier off erings like a spreader rig (See a description of a fl uorocarbon rig below and a diagram, below right, provided by a seasoned Erie perch angler). Live emerald shiners are easily the top perch bait. Even salted emerald shiners will outperform live fathead minnows or other small minnows. Emerald shiners are available for dipping along City of Buf-falo shore sites like Broderick Park (foot of Ferry St.) and the Ontario Street boat launch. View the Bait-fi sh Regulations for information on use, transportation and possession of person-ally caught baitfi sh.Double Fluorocarbon Perch Rig: Tie a 6 foot section of 6 pound fl uorocarbon line onto the main line using a surgeon's knot. Slide a #6 Aberdeen hook onto fl uorocarbon line to 3 foot from

end, and tie a double overhand knot, leav-ing a 1.5 inch loop with hook attached. Slide a second hook onto the line to 12-15 inches below the fi rst hook and secure same as fi rst hook. Attach a 1 or 2 ounce sinker, 12-15 inches below the bottom hook.Due to the start of a construction project at Buff alo Small Boat Harbor, the boat launch is now closed.Boaters have good opportunity to catch steelhead near the mouths of the tribu-taries. Anglers have done well in 4-10 feet of water off the mouth of Chautauqua Creek by casting spoons. Another group did quite well by troll-ing stickbaits up and down the low end of Cattaraugus Creek, between the Hanover launch and the mouth.As for tributary steel-head action, the go-to spot has been Catta-raugus Creek. Anglers are catching steelhead from the mouth up to the dam in Spring-ville. The best catches have been around Gowanda and on the Seneca Reservation,

including some double digit catches. So far, catches have been fair at the dam, although reports indicate some fresh fi sh showing up over last couple days. Light rains gave Cat-taraugus Creek fl ow a bump yesterday, adding some color. Catt fl ow is currently at about 200 cubic feet per second. With continued low and clear conditions on the other tributaries, steelhead catches have been light. Some fi sh have been caught in the low ends of Chau-tauqua, Canadaway and Eighteenmile Creeks. The forecast-ed rain should help. Tributary steelhead commonly hit natu-ral baits like egg sacs or worms, fl ies such as egg imitations, streamers and bugger patters, and lures like minnow-type stick-baits, smaller spoons and in-line spinners. Anglers can also target steelhead from the Cattaraugus Creek breakwall or off creek mouths by casting spoons, spinners and

stick-baits. For those new to steel-head fi shing, see the Steelhead Fishing in Lake Erie Tributaries page for information on steelhead fi shing equipment, locations and links to stream maps.Lake Erie Steelhead Diary Cooperator Program: The DEC Lake Erie Fisheries Unit is seeking active Lake Erie tributary anglers to participate in the Diary Coop-erator Program. The diary program pro-vides valuable infor-mation on angler's fi shing trips and helps biologists assess the status of the lake and tributary trout fi sh-ery in the New York waters of Lake Erie.

Chautauqua LakeIt has been a great season for muskellunge fi shing on Chautau-qua Lake, with some of the better catches in recent memory. Trolling outside weed edges with large perch-pattern stick-baits is a good bet. Drifting and casting around weed beds has also produced musky catches. Anglers were recently catching some walleye in the deeper holes of the north basin. Vertical jigging with spoons, jigging Rapalas or medium sized shiners are good tactics. Some walleye have also been caught along weed edges, by drifting with shiners. Smallmouth bass fi sh-ing is picking up along points, with catches reported at Warner Bar, Maple Springs and Long Point. Some smallmouth action has also been reported around the Lakewood Bar.


at this point. So terrible. My new projection would be the same as the old one: Broncos, Chargers, Chiefs, Raiders in that order.NFC EASTYes, I had the Dallas Cow-boys (6-1) fi nishing fourth in this division and the Washington Football Team (2-5) fi nishing second. Those predictions look pretty darn lousy at this point. I'd feel worse about it, but seemingly everyone in America had the Cowboys as one of the bot-tom feeders of the NFL. The Cowboys haven't really been blowing teams out, as their point diff erential is +49, but a win is a win.The Philadelphia Eagles (5-1) are probably sick of hearing about the Cowboys, as they have just one loss as well and are 2-0 within the division. The Thanksgiving Day game between Dallas and Philly is going to be epic. The New York Giants (3-4) are just kind of lost in the shuffl e. They lost two, then won three and now have lost two more. I had them as a third-place team, and that's exactly what they look like. While I'm still not 100 percent sold on Dallas, I have to admit I was wrong about them. I'll still take the Eagles to win the division. My new projection would be Eagles, Cowboys, Giants,

Football Team. NFC NORTHThis was supposed to be one of the best, more competitive divisions in all of the NFL. While it's certainly com-petitive, it's only a two-team race instead of the predicted three-team battle. The Chicago Bears (3-4) are the team that has kind of fallen out of it. Their off ense is sur-prisingly middle-of-the-pack and an 0-3 home record sure doesn't help. They were my pick for second in the divi-sion, but that seems unlikely at this point.The Green Bay Packers (5-2) and Detroit Lions (5-2) have both looked impres-sive on their way to identical records. They both have squeaked out last-second wins within the last couple weeks, but a win is a win. The Lions hold the edge right now due to the head-to-head tiebreaker, but we'll see what happens when they have to come to Lambeau later in the season. The Minnesota Vikings (2-6) are breaking in a rookie quarter-back in Teddy Bridgewater and not much was expected of them. They've met those expectations. I think Green Bay still wins this division with that home game against the Lions looming. My new projection would be Pack-ers, Lions, Bears, Vikings in

that order — that's only the Bears and Lions swapped from the preseason picks.NFC SOUTHApparently no one wants to win this division. None of the four teams has a win-ning record. All four teams have at least a double-digit negative point diff erential. All four teams lost last week. The division is a combined 2-10-1 on the road. In case you're curious, none of those previously mentioned facts are good things.The Carolina Panthers (3-3-1) lead the division, but were actually my pick to fi nish third after last year's surprising playoff run. The arrow is defi nitely trend-ing downward after a 1-3-1 stretch for the Panthers. The New Orleans Saints (2-4) are probably lucky to have those two wins as they've been out of sync all season. I still think they'll win the division as their defense can't continue to play this poorly. The Atlanta Falcons (2-5) were my pick to bounce back and fi nish second, but unless a miracle hap-pens on the defensive end, there's no way that's going to happen. They're 2-0 in the division, but 0-5 outside of it. The Tampa Bay Buc-caneers (1-5) have been one of the league's worst teams and that'll almost certainly

continue. My new projection would be Saints, Panthers, Falcons, Bucs – again with only the Panthers and Fal-cons swapped from the my preseason picks.NFC WESTI'm going to be completely honest here and admit that I have no idea what's going on with this division. The Seattle Seahawks (3-3) have already lost as many games as they did en route to winning last season's Super Bowl. The San Francisco 49ers (4-3) began 0-2 and were slaughtered by Denver this past week. The Arizona Cardinals (5-1) lead the division by two full games now, but still only sport a +21 point diff erential. The St. Louis Rams (2-4) were supposed to be terrible, but just knocked off the defending Super Bowl champs, so who knows what's going on?It seems almost impossible to be-lieve the Cardinals can continue this run, right? There have been too many injuries on defense. But then again, the 49ers defense is rav-aged by injuries and

suspensions, the Seattle defense isn't half of what it was last year and the Rams have allowed over 29 points per game. With a two-game lead, it's hard to pick against Arizona holding on. My new projection is going to be Cardinals, Seahawks, 49ers, Rams. That just feels weird.

Keselowski marches to His own beatBy Jenna FryerAP Auto Racing Writer

It didn't take long for Brad Keselowski to earn an un-pleasant reputation in NA-SCAR. He was aggressive on the track, brash and arrogant off of it, and rubbed most of his competitors the wrong way.Denny Hamlin famously feuded with him through the 2009 season, calling him ''a complete moron'' while al-

leging ''every driver in the garage that comes up to me says, 'That guy is a com-plete whack job.''' When Hamlin made good on a promise to wreck Kesel-owski in the 2009 Nation-wide Series finale, Hamlin received a standing ovation from crews along pit road.It was Carl Edwards who was fed up with Kesel-owski the next season, and he returned to the track at Atlanta to deliberately wreck his new rival. The contact had an unintended consequence, though, and Keselowski's car flew into the fence. Everyone in NASCAR picked sides but most thought ''Bad Brad'' had it coming.He didn't really care what anyone thought.''It's not possible to get a Cup ride right now with-out being aggressive, and

without having some swagger in your step,'' Keselowski said shortly after the Edwards inci-dent in 2010. ''Does that make you a jerk? To some people, yes. To some people, no. It de-pends on where you're coming from. If you look at the sport right now, there are no new drivers coming in.''So whatever I'm doing is working, and it's gotten me to where I'm at.''

Keselowski was a Sprint Cup champion two seasons later, and after a sub-par 2013 sea-son, he's furiously charging af-ter a second title. Keeping this run alive was no easy feat, as Keselowski was backed into a must-win situation Sunday at Talladega Superspeedway, a track where drivers have very little control over their fate.He promised his Team Penske crew that he'd win to avoid elimination in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship. He was coming off a post-race meltdown at Charlotte, where he became a menace behind the wheel after realizing his title hopes had potentially slipped away.Hamlin had to be restrained from trying to fight him, Matt Kenseth attacked him from behind and it was his Penske crew that rushed to his rescue. Keselowski earned a $50,000 fine from NASCAR, with-stood a hailstorm of criticism from his peers, and kept his mouth shut as he went with his team to Martinsville Speedway in Virginia for two days of testing last week.It was there that he vowed his season was not ending at Talladega.Promising to win is one thing, but delivering is a much taller order. Only Keselowski did it, pulling off the equivalent of a walk-off home run or a two-touchdown rally in the final two minutes of a game.Team Penske was not in the least bit surprised.''I don't think this is the first time we've seen Brad step up to the plate,'' crew chief Paul Wolfe said. ''Seems like every-one is against him, seems like that fires him up more. He sets his mind to something, he's going to make it happen.''It takes a special talent to deliver in high-pressure situations, especially when it

seems like an entire industry is against you. There's only been one other driver in the last decade, Tony Stewart, to climb off the ropes in the face of self-inflicted adversity and he backed up his actions and his words with three champi-onships.Keselowski is proving to be the current-day Stewart - the driver who does what he wants and refuses to toe the line.He speaks up when he doesn't believe something is right, he isn't politically cor-rect for the sake of staying on the good side of NASCAR or his sponsors, and he takes pride in marching to his own beat.Keselowski claimed Sunday he doesn't enjoy the him-against-the-world mentality, and that fighting so many battles is only making his life harder. But he's keenly aware at how difficult the road to NASCAR's top series was,

and that he scratched and clawed his way into a top-level ride at a time of very little turnover.He notes that he and now-teammate Joey Logano broke into the Sprint Cup Series at the same time and are the only drivers to make it stick five years later.''What other drivers came from that era and are suc-cessful? There isn't one. There's not one that came through those four or five years,'' he said. ''That's for good reason. They've been ran out of the sport. I'm not going to let that hap-pen. That means sometimes there's going to be some uncomfortable moments. Certainly there were some uncomfortable moments this week. I hope there's not any more uncomfortable mo-ments in the future, but there probably will be.''It helps to have the unwaver-ing support of team owner

Roger Penske, who was given the only Cup championship of his career with Kesel-owski's 2012 title. He gives his driver latitude to make recommendations for the or-ganization, to confidently be a leader of his race team.Penske doesn't care if Kesel-owski is liked in the garage - and make no mistake, he probably doesn't crack the top-20 in popularity among his peers - but Penske on Sunday rebuked those drivers as jealous rivals.It was the public affirmation Keselowski needed to show the world that like him or hate him, he's not changing and he's not going anywhere.''I'd stand up for him any-where,'' Penske said. ''Look, I like him. He's a great driver, we have a long-term relationship with him. If he wants to get a little upset sometimes, that's OK with me.''
