A local competition that provides aspiring performers the ideal stepping-stone to showcase their talents before a large audience is celebrating 10 years of providing unique musical entertainment as the region’s annual summer sing-ing competition.
Formerly known as “Chautauqua Idol,” the 2013 SE93’s Chau-tauqua Lake Voices contest will feature 19 contestants who will sing before a volunteer panel of judges who will decide each week which performers will be elimi-nated until there are three fi nalists for the SE93 Chautauqua Lake Voices crown. The winner will be awarded thousands of dollars in prizes and be given the opportuni-ty to perform at the annual Bemus Bay Pops Labor Day Finale, a tremendous musical escapade that is regularly enjoyed by thousands of Chautauqua County residents and visitors to the region.
The competitions previously showcased the talents of more than 120 singers over the past nine years, regularly attracting sellout crowds on the shoreline of Lakeside Drive in Bemus Point. Community excitement is build-ing for this year’s competition, especially with the 10-year an-niversary celebration of the event taking place this summer.
"We continue to see a faithful
audience each summer and spon-sorship support from the area's premier businesses,” says An-drew Hill, director of operations and programming for the fi ve local radio stations of Media One Group. “We also recognize the unique opportunity that we are giving to area singers to perform with a live stage band at a great setting in Bemus Point.”
The 2013 competitors are Mike Bidney of Jamestown, Dylan Carlson of Dunkirk, Becca Eh-rlich of Bemus Point, Bill Bruna-cini of Jamestown, Maria Sena of Ashville, Julie Haight of Jame-stown, Nicole Tenpas of Ashville, Hannah Kellom of Jamestown, Emily Windoft of Lakewood, Elizabeth Lucas of Jamestown, Victoria McIlvain of Jamestown, Sara Ross of Brocton, Allison
Beach of Randolph, Michael Nugent of Lancaster, Shelby Seidler of Florida, Shelby Saylor of Corry, PA, Jamie Haight of Youngsville, PA, Teal Weatherley and Jennie Melquist.
Someone from that group of 19 contestants will be added to the list of winners that includes 2004 winner Susan Waite, 2005 win-ner Marla Harris, 2006 winner Lauren Cecchini, 2007 winner Ben Blood, 2008 winner Billy Thomas, 2009 winner Shawn Wilder, 2010 winner Marc Nupp, 2011 winner Samantha DeJesus and 2012 winner Heather Pawlak.
Hill, who in addition to his man-agement duties with the local radio stations also has a regular on-air shift weekday afternoons on SE93, will once again serve as the host of the competition. This year’s panel
of volunteer judges include Tim Edborg, now in his sixth year as a talent evaluator for the competi-tion, and Andrew Minton, Patricia Newman and Michelle Paterniti, all three of whom are returning for their second year as judges.
The competition begins Monday, July 1 at 6:30 p.m. on The Bemus Bay Pops Floating Stage at the Italian Fisherman, located at 61 Lakeside Drive in Bemus Point. Audience members will be able to cheer on their favorite performers at that show and the other sched-uled dates of competition: July 8, July 15, July 22, July 29, August 5 and August 19. Preferred re-served seating arrangements can be made for any of the shows by purchasing your tickets at the Ital-ian Fisherman or online at www.bemusbaypops.com.
In addition to the sponsorship by SE93 and Media One Group and presentation by DFT Commu-nications, the 2013 Chautauqua Lake Voices is also supported by Jamestown Mattress, Century 21, Ziebart, Everydays True Value, Jon Elder Productions, Arby’s, SlickText, Harbor Grill, Quick Solutions, Rhoe Henderson, Smith Boys and The Post-Journal.
The competition began in 2004 as a collaborative effort between Media One Group and the Bemus Bay Pops. For more information about the 2013 Chautauqua Lake Voices, call 716-487-1151 or visit www.chautauqualakevoices.com.

Sacred to the local Indians, the towering Hanover elm tree once stood over 150 feet high, and boasted a circumfer-ence of 34 feet. Located near the present day Tri-County Golf Course near Route 39 and Hanover Road, the 425-year-old tree was a attraction for visitors for decades. Later, some were sold tickets to stand under the living obelisk, which was said to be the largest tree east of the Rockies.
On a historical timeline, Hanover’s famous elm was already 100 years old when the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock in
1620. Before succumbing to age in 1938 it was saved from an early destruction in 1901, when landowner Jason Knapp refused a handsome offer to exhibit a slice of the monolith at the Pan-American exhibi-tion.
According to an Evening Observer article dated October 2, 1992, the tree was entered in the New York State College of Forestry Big Tree com-petition and was listed offi cially as the largest tree in the state, and was generally considered the largest elm in the Eastern United States.
Due to the efforts of local historian Vincent Mar-tonis, a large horizontal slice of the tree was even-
tually returned to Ha-nover in 1992 after being kept in the Cattaraugus County Museum in Little Valley on loan.
According to reports, after the tree toppled in 1938, Everett Burmaster of Irving organized an effort to saw three slices from the tree - one was taken to the Buffalo Mu-seum of Science, a second was give to Dr. Arthur Parker of Naples, NY, for study and a third was embellished with a map of Chautauqua County.
Burmaster is reported as stating, “when we cut it apart, we found 385 rings, one for each year.” Area historians estimate that 50 or so additional rings were not visible when the
the Hanover elm
Manley Crowell of Forestville (circa 1928) stands at the Hanover Elm.

Pet of the Week
2825 Strunk Road, Jamestown • 716-665-2209 • [email protected]
This week we are featuring “Izzy” and “Olive”. Izzy is a 4 year old short haired tabby. She has quite the outgoing personality. She would do best in a home with one or two other kitties, but defi nitely no dogs. She does not like them and is not afraid to tell them that.
Olive is a sweet 3 year old Chihuahua mix. She is a real lap dog and loves to be held and give kisses. She is afraid of toddlers so a home without little kids is a must. If you can offer either of these pets a 2nd chance for a great life, stop by the Strunk Road Adop-tion Center and meet them. You will be glad you did.
Congratulations to Star Media Group’s Scott Wise and his wife Katy, on the birth of their son Andrew Scott Wise on Friday, June 21. Andrew was born at 4:14 p.m. and weighed 8 lbs. 10 oz. Andrew is shown above with big brother, Joshua.
congratulations!

Since 1971, Mary Lou Costanzo served as a mem-
ber of the Zonta Club of Jamestown. Her positions included president, area director, district historian and member of countless committees. Whenever she was needed, Costanzo was always willing to lend a hand. When she passed away in 2011, the Zonta
Club of Jamestown kept her memory alive by establish-ing the Mary Lou Costan-zo Scholarship Fund at the Chautauqua Region Com-munity Foundation.
After graduating from high school at the age of 16, Costanzo went on to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree from Mercyhurst College. Not satisfi ed, she returned to college and earned a Master of Social Work de-gree from the State Univer-sity of New York at Buffalo School of Social Work. She spent most of her professional life working as a social worker with the Jamestown and Dunkirk branches of Catholic Charities. Through Zonta, she continued to make a difference in the lives of others through her service and dedication.
The Zonta Club of Jame-stown is one of 1,200 clubs that make up an international organization dedicated to advancing the

On June 18, 2013, the Robert H. Jackson Center was honored to present its annual screening of “Fol-low the North Star” to area 3rd and 4th grade students in its Carl Cappa Theater. A Jackson Center tradition now in its ninth year, the award-winning fi lm about the Underground Railroad tells a timeless story of tol-erance and friendship, and instills a better understand-ing of this important era in American history.
After the fi lm’s screening, the history lesson continued as the students discussed the Underground Rail-road, which consisted of a
network of “safe houses,” and secret routes provided by selfl ess citizens who were willing to risk their lives to help runaway slaves escape to freedom. The students were then led on a tour of the Center. Over 300 students from Samuel G. Love, Clinton V. Bush, Southwestern and Panama schools attended the pro-gram, which was shown in two sessions.
The presentation was pro-vided free of charge thanks to the generosity of M&T Charitable Foundation, Carlson’s Jewelry Smithing, and Bloomquist Landscap-ing.
The Robert H. Jackson Center’s mission is to advance the legacy of
Robert H. Jackson—U.S. Supreme Court Justice and Chief U.S. Prosecutor of the major Nazi war crimi-nals following WWII at the International Military Tribunal (IMT) trial at Nuremberg—through edu-cation and exhibits, and by pursuing the relevance of his ideas for future genera-tions. The Center is located at 305 East Fourth Street, Jamestown, NY. Tours are available from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m., Monday – Friday and from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. on Saturdays. E-mail to [email protected] or visit online at www.roberth-jackson.org for information about upcoming programs and events, or phone the Center at (716) 483-6646.

If you are the proud owner of a digital SLR camera and are wondering if you’ll ever know how to get the most from it, the Audubon Center & Sanctuary has something for you.
From 1 - 4 p.m. on Satur-day, July 13, photography instructor Mark Kirsch will show you how to wean your-self off the automatic mode on your DSLR camera.
“DSLR Boot Camp - Basic Training” is a hands-on workshop for those who want to do more than just “turn it on and hope for the best.” The focus will be on the different program op-tions (Manual Operation, Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority), special picture modes, how aperture and shutter settings af-fect a photograph, select-ing proper white balance settings, choosing RAW versus jpg capture modes… all the basic important camera functions you need
to know.
Bring your digital SLR camera and manual. If weather permits, the class may go outside to shoot a bit, so dress for the weath-er. (Note: this class is NOT designed for point and shoot cameras.)
Mark Kirsch has taught
photography and paint-ing at Southwestern High School for more than two decades. He also teaches photography at Jamestown Community College and trains educators in charac-ter education and class-room management skills. Kirsch has also been in the business of environmental
portrait and wedding pho-tography for over 20 years.
Limited to 24 people, the workshop fee is $26 or $20 for Friends of the Nature Center.
Reservations with payment are required by Tuesday, July 9, 2013, and can be made by calling (716) 569-2345, emailing [email protected], or clicking on the Program Listing link at http://jame-stownaudubon.org/.
On August 13 and 15, Kirsch will offer a second Boot Camp at the Ad-vanced Training level for the photographer who wants to develop advanced skills such as using fi ll and off-camera fl ash, photo-graphing at night, portrait and still life lighting.
The Audubon Center & Sanctuary is at 1600 Riv-erside Road, one-quarter mile east of Route 62 between Jamestown and Warren, Pennsylvania.
For more information, call (716) 569-2345 or visit www.jamestownaudubon.org.

Using her volunteer spirit, Brenda Cole has perma-nently sewn herself into the fabric of the Chautauqua Region Community Foun-dation. Recently, Cole was presented the 2013 Axel W. Carlson “Unsung Hero” Award for her dedication to the Sewing Room at Com-munity Helping Hands.
For the past three years, Cole has gone from a complete stranger at Com-munity Helping Hands to supervising the Sew-ing Room - a place where young, pregnant women in need of assistance are taught to sew and quilt. According to Pastor Amy Rohler, Executive Direc-tor of Community Helping Hands, and one of Cole’s nominators, lessons learned in the Sewing Room go above and beyond sewing. Cole has recently partnered with Cornell Coopera-tive Extension to provide budgeting and parenting classes to “her girls”.
“There have been countless women who have learned some valuable skills and felt a great deal of pride in what they have been able to make on their own,” Rohler said.
In 2008, Cole and her husband, David, stumbled upon Community Help-ing Hands’ Thrift Shop
on a trip to The Gateway Center. Cole commented to Dorothy Mrugala, Depot and Showroom Man-ager that her fabric shelves were a mess and Mrugala quickly put her to work. For the next few months, Cole, with the help of her husband, cleaned out the storage room on the third fl oor. She moved fabric by the cartload to her home where it was measured, cut and returned to the Thrift Shop to be sold.
A lifetime Jamestown resi-dent, Cole taught herself how to sew at the age of 13 after purchasing a sewing machine with money she earned from babysitting. Since then, she has made baby clothes, quilts, cool ties (an item used by U.S. troops in the Middle East
to cool the body), “chemo caps” (for cancer patients undergoing radiation therapy), pet toys, heart pillows for breast cancer survivors and much, much more. A majority of items Cole has made have been given away to those in need through WCA Hospi-tal, Community Help-ing Hands, the Humane Society and various church groups.
In 2010, Rohler met with Cole after hearing about her love of sewing. Rohler offered her the supervis-ing position in the Sewing Room and encouraged Cole to bring all of her talents with her. Since then, Cole has taught “her girls” how to sew and create a number of crafts that have been distributed
throughout the Chautau-qua Region to those in need. At the end of their time together, each woman is allowed to make a baby quilt to take home for their new baby.
According to Cole, the Sewing Room is about more than sewing. “These girls have gone through a lot,” Cole said. “Sometimes they just want to sit and talk a bit.”
Since 1986, the Axel W. Carlson Award has been a tribute to the “unsung heroes” of our community. Carlson was a Swedish immigrant who believed in helping others without reward or recognition. Upon his death in 1981, it was discovered he left a substantial portion of his estate to help others. He started a number of funds at the Community Founda-tion to continue his chari-table giving and in 1985 the Foundation allocated some of that money to this award.
Every year, the Founda-tion awards an individual the title “Unsung Hero” in honor of Carlson. As part of the award the Founda-tion has donated to the following organizations in Cole’s honor: Community Helping Hands, Women’s Services of Chautauqua County and Westside Rescue.

On Saturday, July 6, Zonta will hold its Third Annual Tour de Zonta Bike Rally. Spots are still available and participants may register on the day
of at Plumbush Bed and Breakfast beginning at 7:30 a.m. Participants will travel along one of three scenic routes through Chautau-qua County’s rolling hills: a 13-16 mile intermediate route, a 30-35 mile expe-rienced route and a 50-60 mile expert route. Water and healthy snacks will be provided at checkpoints along the routes. The cost of the Rally is $30.
All proceeds from the event
will benefi t the Costanzo Scholarship which will be awarded to a female stu-dent who demonstrates fi -nancial need, has obtained vocational certifi cation, an
associate or bachelor’s degree and is returning to school to further her educa-tion after an absence of a year or more.

Among women, there is a special breed with thicker skins, bigger hearts, more courage and greater pride that most of us. These women are those females that are involved in the military, either as moms or spouses of military person-nel or are military per-sonnel themselves. These women are the unsung heroines among us, and during this Independence week, deserve recognition of their unique strength and resolve.
Whether it’s the Air Force, Navy, Army or Reserves, the women of military families that support at home or serve in country or overseas are required to have superpowers to succeed. The situations for military women are often unique as their military spouse may not be present for days, weeks, months, and even years. They may or may not have children to raise, as if they are a single parent, but they aren’t. There is an absent parent,
by choice. Often the sup-port parent is the woman, who may have to give birth to their first child without her spouse present; or will experience baby firsts such as the first tooth, step or day at school alone; or face health challenges for them-selves or family members without the physical sup-port of their spouse. Their spouse may be unavailable to contact, thus giving a woman no ability to get im-mediate feedback, support or help from their signifi-cant other. She has to make decisions on her own, often very difficult ones, and she and her spouse must have faith and trust in her ability to take care of things. They have to be on the same page.
With an inexperienced military spouse, many young couples are chal-lenged by the amount of trust necessary to make a military family work. Both people must be strong and able to stand on their own. They must believe in themselves and each other. They should be devoid of jealousy and be faithful to one another. And they must understand that the oath to serve God and country is a priority in a successful military family. Once it becomes a bone of contention and is in com-
petition for the attention of the nonmilitary spouse, the relationship will most likely fail.
Since many military fami-lies struggle with similar issues, military family sup-port groups were created as a way to help each other in ways that only like-minded folks would know how. Online communities such as Military Moms, Military Moms in Action and NAMMAS (National Association of Military Moms And Support) have blogs, forums, discussion groups and off-line gather-ings that help support the troops and their families in any way possible. They assist new military families in their community with information about schools, churches and living ar-rangements. They share tips on doctors and hos-pitals for birthing babies. They can provide grief support, ease anxieties and give empathy endlessly. Many communities or groups formed are based on similar interests such as base location, home state, faith or branch of service and allows many military women to find solace and comfort through difficult and joyful times.
Yet, even more heroic than the women that are the mothers or spouses of mili-
tary men are those brave women that choose to serve in the military themselves.
They sign up for a chal-lenging journey that will impact every facet of their lives: spouse, children and career. Every day may be a struggle in the male-domi-nated, aggressive, non-nur-turing environment they plan to be in. These women are not the domestic god-dess, stay at home mom
or happy housewife types. They know what they have to do from the very begin-
ning. They are tough as nails and never give up. They know that having a military family and chil-dren will be a challenge for not only themselves, but the remarkable individual that agrees to take the journey with them, if they decide to travel down that path at all.
For many, a military spouse makes a perfect mate since they understand
the demands and require-ments of a military life. For others, a military career may be more suitable than the continuous struggles of a nonmilitary union.
Whichever version of mili-tary woman she is, these incredibly heroic women deserve.

On a recent Saturday, doz-ens of volunteers worked hard to begin removing water chestnut, an invasive, non-native aquatic plant that has taken a foothold in the Big Pond at the Audu-bon Center & Sanctuary.
That was the fi rst of a se-ries of “Chestnut Pulling” days, a huge undertaking that is requiring scores of volunteers.
Audubon President Ruth
Lundin said, “Audubon is calling upon anyone who loves a pond or lake in Chautauqua County or the Conewango watershed of Pennsylvania to partici-pate and consider putting together a team that will ‘adopt’ an area of Big Pond to keep it clear of water chestnut. We have had a great start, but so much remains to do.”
Group pulls will be held every Tuesday till the end of July from 9 a.m. to noon. Wednesday pulls will be 5-8 p.m., and Sundays will be from 2-5 p.m. They will
begin with an orientation on the best ways to pull water chestnut.
The next Big Pull will be on Saturday, July 13, from 8:30 a.m. to noon. It will end with a lunch where everyone will report back with their results. Call Jamestown Audu-bon at (716) 569-2345 or e-mail [email protected] to sign up. Reservations are needed to have enough tools and food.
Service clubs, church groups, youth groups, and
families are especially en-couraged to come together for this important task
Water chestnut is a fast-growing, fl oating annual herb that forms large mats that shade out native aquatic vegetation. It reduces oxygen levels for fi sh and encourages sedi-mentation by restricting silt movement. Native to southern Europe and Asia, it is not the same species used in Asian cooking.
The Chautauqua County Industrial Development Agency has made it possi-ble to hire a Water Chest-nut Specialist, Amy Noga, to undertake this extensive project. She will imple-ment the plan developed by Audubon’s Land Use Management Committee to attack the problem.
This effort is also being supported by a grant from Audubon New York.
The Audubon Center and Sanctuary is at 1600 Riverside Road, one-quarter mile east of Route 62 between Jamestown and Warren.

audubon needs Water chestnut pullers
Volunteers work to remove water chestnuts from the Big Pond at the Audubon Center & Sanctuary. Their goal is to prevent the invasive, non-native plant from reproducing in other waterways and eliminating all other plants and fi sh.

Area children will once again be introduced to the magical world of live theatre, and be part of the cast or crew of one of two musical productions, when the curtain rises on the 2013 season of Playground Drama Day Camp at SUNY Fredonia.
The annual program, which has quickly become one of the highlights of the university’s summer season, once again offers two ses-sions to better maximize each child’s abilities and experiences. Week One, which runs Aug. 12-17 and is for children ages 12-17, will be highlighted by the presentation of “High School Musical Jr.” The second camp, Aug. 19-24, is for children ages 8-12 and is capped by Roald Dahl’s “Willy Wonka Kids.” Children 12 years of age are eligible to attend both camps.
Rehearsals are held each morning and are followed by a bag lunch brought from home. Afternoons feature an exciting rotation of music, dance and techni-cal theatre classes, along with fresh air, snacks and fun activities. All children become members of the Playground Players troupe and receive daily snacks, a free T-shirt and two tickets
to the show.
The camp’s pre-show drop-off of 8:30 a.m. and the Daily Showcase that runs 4:55 to 5:15 p.m. provide fl exible drop-off and pick-up options.
Both camps conclude on their respective Satur-days, which are devoted to preparations for the Main Stage event on the Marvel Theatre stage. Techni-cal rehearsal begins at 9 a.m. and is followed by a bag lunch brought from home. Technical and dress rehearsals start at 1 p.m. Doors for the production open at 3 p.m., with the show starting at 3:30 p.m.
Enrollment is limited. The cost for each camp is $250, which includes a $100 non-refundable deposit. Checks can be made payable to Venture Productions. A payment plan provides for a $100 non-refundable de-posit, followed by the $150 balance due by Aug. 1.
Playground Drama Day Camp, directed by SUNY Fredonia Theatre and Dance Professor Ted Sha-ron, is produced in cooper-ation with the Rockefeller Arts Center and the De-partment of Theatre and Dance.

Afternoon Interfaith Lec-tures: Religion and Spiri-tuality
Delve into the future with young scholars during this week’s afternoon Interfaith Lectures that discuss the distinction between reli-gion and spirituality.
The Interfaith Lectures will explore what the world of religion will be like in the coming years for the 25 percent of the world’s population now under the age of 25. Will the grow-ing distinction between religion and spirituality become more defi ned in the practice and living of values that shape human experience for them?
Week Two will kick off on Monday, July 1 with The Right Rev. Eugene Taylor Sutton, Bishop of Maryland. Throughout his ministry in parishes and academia, Bishop Sutton has been a frequent leader of retreats and conferences throughout the nation on prayer, spirituality and preaching.
On Tuesday, University
of Cambridge scholar Dr. Amineh Hoti takes the po-dium to share her thoughts about religion and spiritu-ality. Dr. Amineh Hoti is a Fellow-Commoner at Lucy Cavendish College at the University of Cambridge, an honorary post which the University of Cambridge awards to “women who are particularly distinguished in their fi eld” and whose association may be “benefi -cial to the college.” She is considered an outstanding pioneer in the study and teaching of interfaith rela-tions.
The lectures will con-tinue on Wednesday with Rabbi Debra Orenstein, a renowned teacher and scholar-in-residence at syn-agogues, conventions and universities across North America. Her passion is re-lating Judaism and spiritu-ality to everyday lives and ultimate concerns.
Thursday’s lecture fea-tures Chris Stedman who is the Assistant Human-ist Chaplain at Harvard University and the Values in Action Coordinator for the Humanist Community at Harvard. He’s a former evangelical — now athe-ist — who sometimes still slips into believer-speak. He’s a prolifi c blogger and the author of the forthcom-ing book, Faitheist: How an Atheist Found Common Ground with the Religious.
The “Religion and Spiri-tuality” Interfaith Lecture series will conclude on Fri-day with Shane Claiborne, founding partner of The Simple Way. Shane writes and travels extensively speaking about peacemak-ing, social justice and Jesus. Shane’s work has been
featured in everything from Fox News and the Wall Street Journal to CNN and National Public Radio.
Scholars will discuss how the distinctions between re-ligion and spirituality will affect community, family and life-cycle rituals for this generation. The young thought-leaders will share different perspectives about what to expect in the com-ing years.
Morning lectures are held in the Amphitheater weekdays at 10:45 a.m. Interfaith Lectures are held in the Hall of Philosophy weekdays at 2 p.m. After-noon lecture themes often complement the themes of the 10:45 a.m. lectures but capture a different angle of vision.

Keeping the FaithDear Pastor, I just don’t feel like I’m happy. What’s wrong?
Last week we looked at the difference between joy and happiness. We saw that joy is an expression of our spiritual closeness to God and is not dictated by circumstances. We also saw that God promises we don’t have to wait for our trials and troubles to be over before we are joyful. This week we’re going to look at how to “get” joyful.
I often fi nd that a person’s own insecurities and feel-ings of unworthiness will contribute to their inability to have joy. They may even believe that being unhappy is “their lot in life” or “it’s just their personality.” But this is not God’s truth! He designed us for joy. In John 15:11, Jesus told His dis-ciples that “These things I have spoken to you that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy be made full.” But joy is like any gift from God…if you want it you must believe that God
wants you to have it and then ask for it! John 16:24 says that, “Up to this time you have not asked a single thing in MY Name; but now ask and keep on ask-ing and you will receive, so that your joy may be full and complete.” This scrip-ture reveals that we have a choice when it comes to accepting joy.
The Bible also tells us that once we have asked for it…we have to “stir it up!” That means that we may need to act joyful in
faith…even before we “feel it!” And here’s the thing…acting joyful during trou-bles is “counter-intuitive.” This just means that when you need joy the most, you are least likely to seek it out! When you are feel-ing depressed, you usually want to complain about your troubles, avoid being around others (especially those who are happy), and focus your thinking on all the bad stuff going on in your life. But God tells us to “put on” the attitude and personality of Christ
(Romans 13:14) no matter what is going on around you. How do we do this? Act joyful! Sing worship songs. Speak scriptures about God’s joy out loud…several times a day. It may not feel natural…but like taking medicine, keep at it until you see it working!
Remember… we can trust and believe in His promise of joy…He designed us for it!

tree was sawed apart.
It was Burmaster who would commission Sanford Plummer- a local Seneca Indian - to paint scenes depicting the nation and county’s history on the last vestige of the tree, adding to its posterity.
According to Martonis, the slice painted with histori-cal vignettes was cut off at a height of 54 feet - a point where the hollow of the dying tree ended. It is 14 inches thick with a diam-eter of 54 inches. After Burmaster kept the slice at his house for a number of years, it would be displayed at the Silver Creek Centen-nial in 1948, and in 1955, loaned it to the Catta-raugus County museum. Martonis said he got the Burmaster family to agree to donate it to the town in 1992, where it is still dis-played at the Hanover His-tory Center today. More recently, it was displayed at the Chautauqua Suites and Conference Center during the 2011 county’s bicenten-nial celebration.
A June 1, 1993 article in the Hanover Historical
states that while remark-able for its age and sci-entifi c value, the tree is particularly interesting because “it has become a pictorial story of the corner of America in which we live.”
Some of the 33 paintings on the slice, include a depiction of the giant elm in full foliage at its center, a map of Chautauqua Coun-ty complete with lakes, creeks and Indian trials; a depiction of its fi rst setter, Amos Sottle; Commander W. B. Cushing, a Civil war hero from Fredonia; Gen-eral Ely S. Parker, a Seneca Indian and aide to General Grant who wrote the terms of surrender at Appomat-tox; an early automobile; and a mastodon scene de-picting bones found in the Town of Sheridan in 1894. Plummer also included a self-portrait near the base of the slice.
When it was moved back to Hanover in 1992, Martonis arranged for people who had visited the giant tree to come talk about their experience. Some remem-ber picnicking at the sight, others sticking their arms
in the hole at its base. One resident, Lillian Bartlett, told how it took eleven members of her Sunday school class to encircle the tree with their arms. Irene Maxon Waxham said that she and friend Vivian Dawley operated a hot dog stand by the entrance and recalled the day it fell, a Saturday morning, with a “loud crash.”
Joyce Ferris Swan who wrote an article in 1962 called “The Big Tree of Chautauqua County” said that when she visited the downed tree, it was a “mild shock” seeing it stretching through the woods as far as the eye could see. “Noth-ing lay beside it or on top of it and so it lay in dignity in the grave it had hewn through the forest.”
She adds, “The big tree was majestic even in its decadence.”
Those interested in seeing a slice of the Hanover Elm with its folk art render-ings are invited to visit the Hanover History Center, located in the Hanover Town Hall at 68 Hanover St., in Silver Creek.

The second annual card-board regatta will be held at McCrea Point on Satur-day August 3 with registra-tion at 9:30 a.m. and races starting at noon. The event will include music, food and a judge-assessed boat race. Proceeds will benefi t the both organizations that are merging together to form The Reg Lenna Center For The Arts.
Teams will construct a
“human-powered” boat made of corrugated cardboard donated by Jamestown Container that must hold at least one crew member and must be “sea-worthy” enough to race a short distance. Boats must be constructed in advance of the event, and partici-pants are encouraged to let their imaginations run wild by putting considerable artistic fl air into both boats and costumes.
Teams will be competing for the fastest time, most creative design and most
dramatic sinking. Specta-tors will also be able to par-ticipate in the judging pro-cess by choosing a crowd favorite. The following age brackets will be used dur-ing the competition: adult (18 plus), teen (13 to 17) and youth (8 to 12). Upon reg-istration, competitors may pick up cardboard donated by Jamestown Container at Arts Council For Chau-tauqua County (116 East Third Street).
Registration forms are available at Arts Council and Reg Lenna Civic Cen-
ter and can be emailed to interested parties. Fees can be dropped off or mailed
to the Reg Lenna Civic Center box offi ce (at 116 E. Third St. in Jamestown).
The entry fee per team is $40. Registration, boat-building guidelines and donation and sponsorship information are available at artscouncil.com.
Donations will also be accepted at the event. For more information call 397-1360 or 664-2465, exten-sion 227 or email [email protected].

Growing with Music Together is offering a short series of music classes for very young children and their caregivers. The classes meet once a week for four weeks during July and demonstrate the many
ways that music aids in the overall development of babies, toddlers and young children. Classes are held at Barlow’s Mill, 369 West Main Street in Fredonia.
For most adults, music class is something they experienced in elementary or middle school, perhaps singing in a chorus or play-ing an instrument, most
often in a formal perfor-mance setting. Music class for babies, toddlers and pre-schoolers is a whole new experience. This kind of class is informal learning through play and everyone, of any age, incorporates their individual skill levels into the musical experi-ences at hand. There’s singing, moving, playing
hand percussion instru-ments; there’s social and self learning, how to relate in a group setting on a variety of levels, and care-givers learn more about their child’s approach to learning. Children grow in emotional self- regula-tion, the ability to focus, to sing on pitch and keep a steady beat. And parents
learn more about how their child learns while gaining confi dence in being musical themselves.
All in all, Music Together Family Favorites Summer Demo Session is a win-win whether the caregiver who brings the child to class is a grandparent, parent or nanny, there’s learning and fun, and a special bonds
between class members.
Registrations are being taken at Barlow’s Mill, 369 West Main Street in Fredo-nia. Call 716-673-9020 to receive a registration fl yer or go to the music page at barlowsmill.com. Infor-mation is also available at facebook: growing with music.

Chautauqua Institution presents another fun-filled week of entertainment for all ages, featuring perfor-mances from the Music School Festival Orchestra, Chautauqua Symphony Orchestra, Chautauqua Opera, in addition to na-tionally recognized bands and comedic performers.
On Sunday, June 30, visi-tors have the opportunity to enjoy free admission to the grounds to attend an Amphitheater performance by the Buffalo Silver Band at 2:30 p.m. As the only British style brass band in Upstate New York, the Silver Band continues the band performance tradi-tion that was established before the Civil War and rose to prominence at the end of the 19th Century. Except for percussion, the band is composed entirely of brass instruments. Its repertoire includes tradi-tional marches, popular songs, jazz, light classical music and more serious works composed expressly for the brass band genre.
Following Sunday’s per-formance, guest conductor Timothy Muffitt will lead the Music School Festival Orchestra in the Amphi-theater on Monday night at 8:15 p.m.
Enjoy free admission to The Family Entertainment Series (FES) comedy act Johnny Peers and the Mut-tville Comix on Tuesday at 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. Johnny leads his 12 rescue/shelter dogs through challeng-ing and hilarious tricks as Johnny plays the straight man role in this wonderful family show. Johnny uses visual comedy, audience participation and a culmi-nation of varied dog tricks to wow the audience while presenting a sentimental tone. Johnny and his dogs have performed for Ring-ling Brothers Barnum and Bailey Circus, and on the
David letterman Show.
Also on Tuesday, after the comedic act by Johnny Peers, guests can sit down and enjoy a Chautauqua Symphony Orchestra (CSO) performance with world-renowned guest con-ductor Christopher Sea-man, featuring prestigious violinist Karen Gomyo at 8:15 p.m. in the Amphithe-ater.
Wednesday’s 8:15 p.m. Amphitheater performance features An Evening with Mark Russell for Commu-nity Appreciation Night. He says that whenever he is down in the dumps, he opens the newspaper and immediately cheers up. Russell is a Buffalo, NY native, and he continues to play off the day’s headlines, performing stand-up com-edy while accompanying himself on the piano.
Stuart Chafetz is back for another summer at Chautauqua to conduct the annual Pops Concert: Independence Day Cel-ebration on Thursday, July 4 at 8 p.m. in the Amphi-theater. The concert will also feature singer, pianist and songwriter Tony De-Sare, who has won critical and popular acclaim for his concert performances throughout the U.S. as well as in Australia, Japan and Hong Kong.
On Friday, July 5 at 8:15 p.m. in the Amphitheater, Chautauqua Institution presents Sail Rock 2013, featuring music of the 1970s and 80s with hit songs sung by the origi-nal artists. This evening includes memorable and iconic songs performed by Christopher Cross, Orleans, Gary Wright, Firefall, John Ford Coley, Robbie Dupree and Player.

The 1891 Fredonia Opera House will screen Giuseppe Verdi’s masterpiece Il Trovatore as part of its Live at the Met Summer Encore Series of operas on Thurs-day, June 27, at 7 p.m.
“We’re very excited to be presenting encore broad-casts of six of the Metro-politan Opera’s most highly acclaimed Live in HD transmissions this sum-mer,” says Opera House Executive Director Rick Davis. “These productions offer a great way for opera buffs to relive some of the Met’s best-loved produc-tions from the past few seasons. They also provide a great way for people un-familiar with opera to give the genre a try.”
David McVicar’s stir-ring production of Verdi’s intense drama premiered at the Met in the 2008-09 season. This revival stars four extraordinary sing-ers - Sondra Radvanovsky, Dolora Zajick, Marcelo Al-varez and Dmitri Hvoros-tovsky - in what might the composer’s most melodi-cally rich score.
The opera’s immense popularity, with some 229 productions worldwide in the three years following its 1853 premiere, remains true today. It ranks twenty-first on the operabase list of most performed operas worldwide in the past five years. Marco Armiliato conducts this production, which the New York Times calls “rousing, satisfying,
truly fun.”
Live at the Met live opera broadcasts and Summer Encores screenings are made possible by Dr. James M. and Marcia Merrins, who funded the purchase of the satellite transmission and projec-tion equipment used in the series. Support for the series also comes from the United Arts Appeal of Chautauqua County.
Tickets to the Live at the Met Summer Encores Series operas are $15 and are available in advance by calling or visiting the Box Office at 716-679-1891 Tuesday – Friday, 1-5 p.m. They also may be purchased online anytime at www.fredopera.org. The Series continues with Rossini’s Armida on July 11; Verdi’s La Traviata on July 18; Puccini’s Turandot on July 25; and Rossini’s Il Barbiere di Siviglia on Aug. 8.
Chautauqua County’s only performing arts center pre-senting its own program-ming year-round, the 1891 Fredonia Opera House is a member-supported not-for-
profit organization located in Village Hall in down-town Fredonia. For a com-
plete schedule of events, visit www.fredopera.org.

AAA Travel projects 40.8 million Americans will journey 50 miles or more from home during the Independence Day holiday, a 0.8 percent decrease from the 41.1 million people who traveled last year. The an-ticipated decline in holiday travel is predominantly due to a shorter holiday period.
With the Fourth of July landing on a Thursday this year, the holiday period has returned to the standard fi ve-day holiday, compared to the six-day period in 2012 when the holiday fell on a Wednesday. The Independence Day holiday travel period is defi ned as Wednesday, July 3 to Sun-day, July 7, and is typically the busiest holiday of the summer travel season.
“This year nearly 41 mil-lion Americans plan to celebrate the nation’s birth-day with a getaway, a slight decline from last year,” said AAA Western and Central New York President and
CEO Tony Spada. “This projection is not represen-tative of the improving economy but rather due to the calendar effect of one fewer day in the holiday period.”
Highlights from 2013 aaa independence day Holiday travel Forecast include: • Holiday travelers to to-tal 40.8 million, a decrease of 0.8 percent from the 41.1 million who traveled last year.
• Eighty-four percent of travelers (34.4 million) to travel by automobile, a de-crease of 0.7 percent from 34.7 million last year.
• Holiday air travel ex-pected to increase slightly to 3.07 million from 3.06 million in 2012.
• Holiday travel vol-ume is expected to remain above the 13-year average of 38.9 million for this holiday.
• The largest share of travelers (32 percent) will depart on Wed., July 3, and return on Sun., July 7 (38 percent).
• The average traveler is expected to travel a round-trip distance of 613 miles and spend $747.
July 3 and 7 busiest travel daysThis year, 46 percent of intending travelers plan to begin their trip prior to the start of the holiday travel period, compared to 65 percent last year. The largest share of travelers (32 percent) on a single day will depart on July 3 and the largest share will return on July 7 (38 percent).
Thirty-four percent intend to stretch their holiday vacation into the following week returning on or after Monday, July 8.
automobile travel remains dominant mode of transportationApproximately 34.4 million people (84 percent) plan to drive to their destination, a decrease of 0.7 percent from the 34.7 million who drove last year.
Gas prices are unlikely to be a major factor in travel
decisions this holiday. Despite the slight increases compared to last year, prices remain below their highs of earlier this year. The current national aver-age price for a gallon of regular gas is $3.59/gal, 11 cents higher than last year. The average in New York State is currently $3.75/gal. Buffalo is currently averag-ing $3.74 a gallon, only one cent higher than 2012.
air travel to increase slightlyMore than 3.07 million
leisure travelers (eight percent) will arrive at their destination by air, a slight increase from last year’s 3.06 million air travelers. The remaining eight per-cent of holiday travelers are expected to travel by other modes, including rail, bus and watercraft.
average travel distance decreases, spending relatively unchangedThe average distance trav-eled by Americans during the Independence Day holi-day weekend is expected to be 613 miles, which is 110 miles less than last year’s average of 723 miles. The decline is likely refl ective of the shorter holiday period.
Median spending during the Independence Day holi-day weekend is expected to be $747, compared to $749 last year. Transportation is expected to consume approximately 29 cents of every dollar. Travelers expect to spend 20 percent on food and beverage and 22 percent on lodging.

At separate ceremonies on June 10, a total of 330 students from school districts throughout Chautauqua County and beyond were honored for successfully completing two years of study in Career & Technical Education programs offered by the Erie 2-Chautauqua-Cat-taraugus BOCES at the Hewes Educational Center in Ashville and the LoGu-idice Educational Center in Fredonia.
Since the beginning of their junior year, the students have spent nearly half of each school day at the Hewes and LoGuidice centers studying special-ized fi elds and career areas of their choosing. Toward the end of their senior year, they had to demonstrate their knowledge, skills and experience by pass-ing challenging national assessments and most had to successfully complete a three-week internship at businesses, organizations and agencies related to their programs.
For these students, there were many benefi ts from their participation in CTE programs. In addition to receiving formal training in the fi elds they chose, students who successfully completed the programs and met the necessary requirements received a Technical Endorsement on their Regents Diploma. The requirements for a Technical Endorsement include earning a Regents Diploma, passing the NOCTI (National Occupa-tional Competency Testing Institute) national exam, passing the composition and communication course, completing a portfolio with a passing grade, passing their CTE programs, and successfully completing a
three-week internship.
In addition to receiving a Technical Endorsement on their Regents Diploma, for many students, their partic-ipation in CTE programs enabled many students to earn articulation credits from many different col-leges and some have earned scholarships toward their post-secondary education. Many were even offered employment opportunities. Additionally, students were able to earn valuable certi-fi cations and licenses. They were also able to compete in a variety of career events and participate in student organizations such as Skill-sUSA, National Technical Honor Society, Health Occupations Society of America and Explorers.
“To the Class of 2013, just try to remember through the challenging times ahead – don’t forget your dreams,” said Christopher “Kip” Feinen, principal of the Hewes Center, in a fi nal message to graduating seniors.
The Hewes Center ceremo-ny took place at the Chau-
tauqua Lake High School auditorium and the LoGu-idice Center ceremony took place at the Silver Creek High School auditorium, both of which was fi lled to capacity with students’ friends and families. For many, the ceremony was as signifi cant as their high school graduation since they spent so much of their junior and senior years at the Hewes or LoGuidice Center. One by one, each student took to the stage to accept their certifi cates.
“Our Career & Technical Education teachers did an excellent job with our stu-dents and I am very proud of them,” said Jose Pagan, LoGuidice Center princi-pal. “It was nice to have our graduation ceremony at the Silver Creek High School auditorium.

Assistant Professor Jill Re-ese of the Fredonia School of Music is the recipient of a $10,000 SUNY Innova-tive Instruction Technology Grant (IITG). The IITG program funds campus innovations and initiatives that have the potential to be replicated elsewhere within SUNY to benefit students and faculty across the state and worldwide.
“The IITG program has enabled our campuses to enhance the quality of a SUNY education by leveraging our system and bringing students the best that technology has to offer,” said SUNY Chancellor Zimpher.” This program is one of many that exemplify SUNY’s ca-pacity to model innovative instructional practices for higher education nation-ally and globally. We look forward to seeing these outstanding ideas replicat-ed across SUNY to benefit even more of our students, faculty and staff.”
Dr. Reese’s project, “iPads for Music Making and Music Teaching,” will provide the opportunity for undergraduate music edu-cation majors to develop
their abilities to effectively use technology to scaffold and encourage the music creativity and expression of all learners (regardless of age or ability). The related projects include partner-ships with local schools, childcare programs, retire-ment and rehabilitation centers, and multiple stu-dent associations on cam-pus. The grant will also assist the School of Music in meeting the standards for teacher preparation set forth by the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) and the National Council for Ac-creditation of Teacher Edu-cation (NCATE). Through the projects, students will have the opportunity to contribute to the local community, enhance local
opportunities for music expression and collabora-tion in the community, and develop the skills required to interact and teach in a digital society. Dr. Reese’s co-investigator is Matthew Wilson, visiting lecturer of music technology and lab coordinator of the School of Music Technology Lab.
SUNY faculty and staff across all disciplines were eligible to apply for the IITG competitive grant. Recipients will openly share project outcomes, enabling SUNY colleagues state-wide to replicate and build upon the innovations, many supporting the uni-versity system’s new Open SUNY initiative, which will bring together all of the online courses offered at SUNY campuses.
In its inaugural year, the 2012 program resulted in 117 grant proposals and 48 awarded grants. Of the 93 proposals submitted for this year’s competition, 33 were selected to receive awards. In addition, six projects from round one were funded for a second round. Several projects included collaborations by two or more campuses and/or with local organizations and businesses.

Last week I stopped in at a local golf course to play a round of golf with my wife. I didn’t have much cash so I asked the owner if she took plastic. She told me that she did and she took my card and swiped it. After she swiped my card she placed an iPad in front of me. The iPad had my transaction and a place for me to sign. I paused for a moment as I thought about the technology.
“Sign with your finger”, the owner said.
Yes, of course, I thought.
After all, I am using an iPad. One uses their finger all the time with the iPad. After I signed, I was pre-sented with a choice of how to receive my receipt: text message, email, or paper. I would have loved to try the email option but I was worried that I would get roped into some long pro-cess where I would have to register my email address. I opted for the paper and the owner printed out my receipt.
I asked the owner about this process and she said it was very simple and inexpensive. Their business signed up with a service called Square. Square allows anyone to turn their mobile device into a point-of-sale terminal. You can sign up for free and they send you an elec-tronic reader for free. The reader is just a little square adapter that fits onto your phone or tablet.
Square collects 2.75% of each transaction and that is it. There are no hidden service fees for the business. The software works on iOS and Android devices. The other great thing about
Square is that it provides analytics to the business, allowing for sales history, deposit history, and pay-ment history. The analytics software allows the busi-ness to look at sales by day of the week, and all of these reports can be downloaded as a spreadsheet that can be read on a mobile device or desktop computer.
The owner of the golf course mentioned to me how important it is in today’s world to be able to accept debit/credit cards. Most younger people tend to pay with plastic rather than cash. If your busi-ness caters to that age group, that is an important consideration. This type of technology would seem great for those businesses that accept payments in a temporary environment. I think of those who sell at farmer’s markets, fairs, or corner food carts. Busi-nesses that provide on-site service could also take advantage of this technol-ogy. This technology looks like it has a very promising future.

While the Cross Roads Farm and Craft Market continues to evolve with the addition of new ven-dors and other changes that have seen the co-op continue to grow, the focus remains on provid-ing a weekly shopping destination that organiz-ers proudly label as the “mall-ternative” to today’s hustle-and-bustle world of corporate conglomerates and brand name chains.
Located on Route 21 at 6017 Sherman-Westfi eld Road in Westfi eld, the Cross Roads Farm and Craft Market is now operating in its fi fteenth season. Featuring dozens of individual vendors known for their crafts, artwork, woodwork, imported gifts, specialty supplies, unique collectibles, food, candy, coffee, hand-made cloth-ing and home decor, the market has something for
everyone, especially for shoppers trying to locate a unique retail gift for that special someone. Operat-ing indoors, the market is open every Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. no matter what the weather condi-tions may be from May through December 21. In addition to every Saturday, the market will also be open this year on Labor Day (September 2) and “Black Friday” (November 22.)
The opportunity for pa-trons to experience a truly unique one-stop shopping excursion is one of the biggest draws for the Cross Roads Farm and Craft
Market.“We have many regular customers and what they tell us is we pro-vide a different approach
to shopping because we are a totally different environ-ment to the busy commer-cial malls and shopping centers that so many people are used to having to deal with,” says Mark Pouthier, who serves as the market manager. “This is a thriv-ing shopping community that is family-friendly, open to ideas and suggestions and always striving to constantly showcase new vendors and new items.”
The Cross Roads Farm and Craft Market en-courages not-for-profi t organizations to use their facility to help raise money for worthy causes. Events such as chicken barbecues, basket raffl es and chili and soup cook-offs have all been successful ventures in the past that have taken place at the Cross Roads venue. Organizers are always open to suggestions about other possible events that non-profi t groups may be willing to organize and host in the future.
“We are always open to new ideas and are always looking to talk to other non-profi t organizations
who want to partner with us,” says Pouthier. “Cross Roads will assist not-for-profi t organizations to help
make their events suc-cessful and raise money, provided that the groups be active participants and have volunteers willing to work at their fundraising event. Give us a call and we can talk about schedul-ing something this year.”
Among the new vendors this year are:
- Jack’s Too, a food booth owned and operated by Jamie Scarpine, who serves up various American fare including baked goods, sandwich melts and other tasty treats.
- Appalachian Arts Stu-dio, a group of chainsaw carvers from Pennsylvania who will be selling various items weekly and also do-ing periodic on-site dem-onstrations. “These people are extremely talented and what they will do every few weeks is actually carve the wood at the market,” says Pothier. “It is quite the sight to see. I think custom-ers will get a kick out of it.”
- Against The Grain, an outfi t that sells unique dec-orative items made from wood that can be displayed in your yard.
Local history buffs may be interested to know that the Cross Roads Farm and Craft Market is located on the fi rst settlement in Chautauqua County, which was the “Cross Roads” along the portage trail between Lake Chautauqua and Lake Erie.
In addition to cash and checks, most vendors ac-cept credit and debit cards. Parking is plentiful and the restrooms are fully handi-capped accessible.

Seeking to promote the vi-sual arts as well as provide art education for youth and adults, Living Glass and Living Art Studio on Chautauqua Lake in May-ville encourages visitors to explore their creative spirits. Keeping art fun and accessible, artists Denise Cash Williams and Ange Cash Bentivegna plans for the gallery include art parties, themed weeks and speakers.
The Living Glass and Art Studio is also a new shop-ping destination for stained glass, original art, photos on canvas, designer jew-elry, as well as other unique handcrafted work by other artists.
Williams is the stained glass artist. Her glass cre-ations are unique contem-porary art with traditional stained glass concepts. “I believe nature provides the most intriguing design elements through form, structure and color, she states. “I try to interpret what I see and fell in this most captivating medium of glass.
Bentivegna’s original paint-ings consist of acrylic and
fabric dyes, inspired, she says by “the movements and energy of life.” She says her art refl ects the light, spirit and beauty of life. She has sold in gal-leries and shows in York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Myrtle Beach, Atlanta and throughout New York.
Their location in Mayville has given them a sense of nostalgia as well. In the 1920s their grandfather was a Mayville proprietor, making and repairing shoes. The tradition con-tinued as Williams’ father owned and operated a local pizzeria in the early 1970s.
Special Hours for the Grand Opening are June 28-29, from 10 a.m.- 8 p.m.
and June 30 from 12-5 p.m. Special music is planned for the opening, as well as wine sampling from Wood-bury vineyards.
Also planned this summer are themed weeks. Every Friday at 1 p.m., an artist or presenter will to speak
on various topics. July 8-12 is the “Art and Wellness Week,” July 15-19, “Art and Family Week” and July 22-26 is “Art and Nature Week”. A jewelry and a Native American week are also planned.
Williams states, “we thought we’d like to have some art parties that would be fun, where people can come in we could teach them a particular style of painting. Bentevegnae, adds, “There would be set designs that they could pick from and (each person) would go home with a picture.”
Living Glass & Living Art Studio is located at 147 West Lake Road in May-
ville next to Webb’s. It is open Monday-Thursday 10 a.m.-5 p.m. and Friday and Saturday 10 a.m.- 8 p.m. and Sunday 12-5 p.m. For more information, visit www.livingglassandlivin-gartstudio.com or phone 716-326-7788.

After going on the road and opening the season with a pair of shutouts and a 2-1 record, the Jamestown Jammers returned home to Diethrick Park and treated the home crowd to a plethora of offense in a 12-6 win over Williamsport.
The Jammers’ bats provided plenty of fi reworks during the game before the postgame fi re-works display courtesy of DFT Communications for the large crowd of Jammers faithful.
Catcher Jin-De Jhang got the home team on the board early with a solo blast into the pine trees over the Stone Mountain Carpet sign in right fi eld. It’s an area of the stadium where few balls are hit hard enough to clear the fence.
The Jammers tacked on one more run in the second before fi rst baseman Danny Collins provided some major run support with a two-run bomb to left-center fi eld that sent the fans into a frenzy.
Second baseman Jodaneli Car-vajal broke the game wide open the very next inning with a two-
run triple to deep right-center. Carvajal later came around to score on a Jhang sacrifi ce fl y that upped the lead to 7-2.
Starter Cody Dickson went three near-perfect innings to open the game. He didn’t allow a hit, gave out just one free pass and fanned six of the nine bat-ters he retired. Jackson Lodge then earned the win with four innings of relief. He allowed six hits and fi ve runs (all earned) while striking out a pair.
Jhang and Collins both homered again in Game Two of the three-game set against the Crosscutters. Leadoff hitter Carvajal collected three more hits as the Jammers cruised to a 8-3 victory. Jhang’s blast again came in the fi rst in-
ning before Collins teed off for a three-run jack in the fi fth.
The Jammers again received three fantastic innings from their starting pitcher — this time Chad Khul, who allowed just one hit and a walk in three innings of work. He struck out three with-out allowing a run. Lance Breed-love earned the victory with three strong innings of relief. He gave up just two hits and struck out seven while keeping William-sport off the scoreboard.
Jamestown couldn’t complete the sweep of Williamsport in the fi nale despite another home run from Collins. The fi rst baseman’s fourth dinger of the season came in the fi rst inning but the Cutters’ bats came alive late as William-
sport earned a 10-4 win.
Jovany Lopez strugged with command as he walked four, gave up three hits and allowed six runs (fi ve earned) in just two and two-thirds innings as he was saddled with the loss.
The short three-game home set was followed by a trip to State College, Pa. to play the Spikes.
The series opened with an excit-ing 6-5 Jammers victory. Colton Brewer was solid on the hill, allowing four runs (three earned) in fi ve innings. Kurt Yacko and Kevin Kleis followed with two innings each, allowing a com-bined one hit and one run over four innings.

Two hours after clinching the Stanley Cup title, a handful of Chicago Blackhawks wandered back out onto the TD Garden ice in their street clothes.
Two of them walked gingerly over to the corner and recreated the goals that brought the NHL season to a stunning conclusion. A few took swigs from Cham-pagne bottles. Some posed for pictures. Others took them.
The Blackhawks celebrated their second Stanley Cup champion-ship in four seasons on Monday
night, coming from behind when Bryan Bickell and Dave Bolland scored 17 seconds apart in the fi nal 1:16 to beat the Boston Bruins 3-2 and take the best-of-seven series in six games.
''This goal, the ending - nobody saw it coming,'' Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville said. ''You just hope. And we tied it up and the other one was icing on the cake. But nobody foresaw either one coming.
''That series and the pace that we just saw for six straight games was an amazing series,'' he said. ''Commend both teams for leav-ing it out there.''

Last week I wrote about my expectations for the Buffalo Bills’ 2013 draft class. I confessed by big expectations for linebacker Kiko Alonso while admitting I don’t have high hopes for wide receiver Marquis Goodwin.
Obviously everyone wants to know what’s going to happen with quarterback E.J. Manuel, the Bills’ fi rst-round selection. I wish I knew. He’s immersed in a two-way race for the starting gig with newcomer Kevin Kolb. Either way I expect Manuel to be the starting quarterback by season’s end. You just don’t draft a guy that high and not play him.
Manuel, along with Alonso, Good-win and second-round receiver Robert Woods were all discussed in detail last week. Those are the Bills’ top four selections and so obviously have the biggest chance to make an immediate impact. The rest of the selections, however, along with a couple of undrafted rookies, cer-tainly have the talent to contribute to the Bills in the 2013-2014 season.

lake erieAnglers have seen a good walleye bite out of Barcelona since last weekend. Walleye have been running higher in the water column, which is common for this time of year (out of Barcelona). Troll-ing in 55-70 feet of water with worm harnesses and stickbaits run around 30 feet down has worked well. The overall walleye action has been good out of Buffalo, in 30-40 feet of water from the windmills to Myers Reef. On Wednesday the bite was hot, but on Thursday the action cooled a bit and boats were returning to port with 3 walleye or less on average. Productive methods include trolling with worm harnesses and stickbaits just off the bottom, or slow trolling with electric motors (1 mph or less) with a bottom bouncing rig and small worm harness.
Anglers continue to fi nd cooperative yellow perch schools between Cattarau-gus Creek and Sturgeon
Point. Depths of 50-65 feet is a good bet between Evangola State Park and Sturgeon Point. More particularly in 62 feet of water off Point Breeze, but expect plenty of company. Other spots worth a shot include depths of 45-52 feet off Cattaraugus Creek and off the red buoy outside Dunkirk Harbor in 43-50 feet of water. Live emerald shiners fi shed just off the bottom work best. If emer-alds are scarce, try other small minnows/shiners or salted minnows.
Anglers can fi nd small-mouth bass in 10-35 feet of water, from Buffalo to Barcelona. The key is to fi nd rocky bottom structure like reefs, rock piles and drop-offs. Recently out of Buffalo, anglers fi sh-ing around the breakwalls and other shallow water structure in 10-15 feet of water have done much better than those fi shing 20-30 feet of water. Tube jigs, jigs with twister tails, deep diving stickbaits, live minnows and crayfi sh are good baits. A drop-shot rig with tubes, plastics or live bait is a good bet when fi shing deeper water. For more information see the Smallmouth Bass Fishing
on Lake Erie page.
lake erie tributariesThere are still some chan-nel catfi sh hanging around the lowest section of Cat-taraugus Creek. Target cat-fi sh with nightcrawlers, raw shrimp, chicken livers, cut bait or dough balls fi shed on the bottom. Catches tend to be better at night.
upper niagara riverShore fi shing has been relatively slow from sites along the City of Buf-falo and Tonawanda. Live minnows and salted shiners have produced a modest mix of small yel-low perch, rock bass and smallmouth bass. The shore fi shing has been better in the early morn-ing and late afternoon. Smallmouth bass fi shing in the upper river is a better bet by boat. Try around Strawberry Island and along the southwest side of Grand Island for small-mouth bass. Watch your drift if fi shing along the southwest side of Grand Island, as the international border (Canada) runs pretty close in that area.
Chautauqua lakeThere has been good small-mouth and largemouth bass
action inside 10 feet of water in both basins. Spinnerbaits, shallow diving stickbaits, tube jigs and other plastics have worked well. Now that the regular bass season is open, anglers can use live baits such as minnows and crayfi sh as well. Anglers are picking up some walleye along weed lines (8-10 feet of water) in the north basin by trolling with stickbaits and worm harnesses near dawn and dusk. Now is a good time to take a young or new angler fi shing at Chautauqua Lake. Bass, sunfi sh and perch are all readily available from docks and shore.
inland trout streamsThe area's inland trout streams are in great shape for this time of year, with moderate, cool fl ows. To add to the excitement, there is also a variety of bugs hatching in good numbers. Depending on the stream/area, anglers are seeing hatches of sul-phurs, March browns, grey foxes, light cahills, isony-chia and caddisfl ies. Use the appropriate dry fl y for surface action, especially in the late afternoon. Produc-tive offerings for spinning anglers include worms, salted minnows and small inline spinners. If you are a catch-and-release an-gler and use spinners, it is good practice to outfi t your spinners with a single hook rather than a treble hook.
Western New York anglers have a variety of Wild Trout Streams and Stocked Trout Streams to choose from. In addition, Public Fishing Rights Maps are available for many of the area's best trout streams.

Legislation sponsored by Assemblyman Andy Good-ell (R,C,I-Chautauqua) to legalize rifl e hunting in Chautauqua County South of Route 60 overwhelm-ingly passed the Assembly today. Under a two-year testing period, rifl e hunting had been in effect in the county since 2011. With the legislation passed by the Assembly today, rifl e hunt-ing will now permanently be in effect.
“Hunting has long been an important tradition for our sportsmen and rifl e hunting across New York continues to be done in a safe and responsible mat-ter,” said Goodell. “Each year, the data indicates that hunting with a rifl e is safer than using a shot-gun. This common-sense proposal has received positive feedback from our
residents, as well as from sportsmen who travel to Chautauqua County and view our communities as sporting destinations. For our sportsmen, hunting is an important legacy and I am proud to help continue the tradition.
“I want to thank Assembly-man Giglio and Senator Young for their support to help enact this important legislation. I will continue to do everything in my power to help not only our hunters enjoy the tremen-dous resources we have here in Chautauqua Coun-ty,” Goodell concluded.
The bill, which already passed the Senate with Senator Young’s support, now awaits the Governor’s signature. This year, rifl e season would begin on November 16.

CHAUTAUQUA STARFRIDAY, JUNE 28, 2013 3
By Stefan GestwickiStar Sports Editor
My golfer’s diary will follow my golf outing(s) for the week. I’ll look at how course conditions, weather, equipment, playing partners, etc. affect the game we love. Please keep in mind that I only started golfi ng last year, so yes, my scores are hardly that of a scratch golfer. But that’s what makes golf great: You don’t have to be a zero handicap to enjoy the game.
It certainly appears the nice weather is fi nally here. Now that it’s offi cially summer, it’s about time. All of that rain and cold was making it very diffi cult to get out golfi ng even once a week sometimes. I’d play two or three times per week if I had it my way.
That’s what happened this past week as I was able to get out Thursday to Sugar Hill Golf Course in West-fi eld and then again on a perfect Sunday afternoon at Cassadaga Country Club.
Quite frankly, neither outing was much to write home about. However, since I have to write about it and I’ve already em-barrassed myself beyond repair in this article in the past, I might as well get on with it.
It was just Bryan and I at Sugar Hill, with neither of us having played very well our last times out. We went in with high hopes that we’d be able to turn our fortunes around. The course was immaculate. The excess water had fi nally all been drained away. The greens were freshly cut. The fairways were green as could be.
Hole No. 1 went as it usu-ally does. A decent drive was followed by a second
shot that I pulled off the fairway. My third shot then had to be a punch shot. There is almost nothing in golf I hate more than having to punch a shot from under a tree. It was a terrible punch. My fourth shot was also a punch and also not terribly effective. Luckily my par chip landed within a few feet of the pin and I was able to salvage bogey, but it’s never terribly encouraging when you have to nickel and dime your way up the rough.
No. 2 was better than it’s been in rounds past. I always try to hit my driver over the pond because the distance isn’t a problem. What is a problem is hit-ting my driver straight. I usually end up in a dense grove of trees off the right of the fairway and have to spend two shots getting out of there. This time I hit a nice easy 5-iron off the tee to lay up just in front of the pond. A 4-iron later and I was just short of the green. I putted like garbage, but it was encouraging that I could one day par No. 2.
I’ll stop short of saying I own No. 3, but my con-fi dence has never been higher on the par 3. No amount of words is enough to describe just how bad I was at par 3’s last year. Of all the things a new golfer experiences, teeing off with an iron was for some odd reason the hardest. Howev-er, I’ve now recorded a par on No. 3 three of my last four attempts and lowered my average for it to below four. Yes, I’m probably due for a setback, but for now, I’m feeling the par 3’s.
I royally jacked up No. 7, but otherwise had a fi ne round. I ended with a 48, but was forced to eat an (gulp) eight on No. 7, so a
bogey or even a double-bogey would have lowered me into my usual mid-40s. Bryan was excellent in the middle holes, but started and fi nished terribly to miss out on his best round of the year.
Just days later however, Bryan did in fact get his best round of the year at Cassadaga Country Club. When I woke up in the morning I was scared one of us would suffer from heat stroke it was so hot. But when we met up with my brother-in-law Scott up in Cassadaga, there was a refreshing breeze and the sun had subsided a little bit.
We were a little frustrated because right when we were done warming up on the practice green a four-some made up of two el-derly couples jumped onto the tee box at No. 1, but we started on No. 3 and just fi gured we’d end on No. 2. No harm done, except that No. 3 is a tricky hole and I usually rely on those fi rst two holes to warm up for No. 3. Without those two warmups I was dreadful. A poor tee shot was followed by a poor second shot. My third shot felt awesome off the club, but landed with a splash of sand just in front of the green. A terrible out preceded a terrible putt from the fringe. It’s exactly how you don’t want to start a round.
A series of bogeys and double-bogeys put me way, way over my usual pace. In three prior trips to Cas-sadaga Country Club I had shot respectable rounds of 43, 45 and 46. I was already at 41 after seven holes. But after taking my second snowman of the round on No. 9, something clicked back on No. 1.
I hit one of the best drives of my life off the tee. There was never a doubt about clear-ing the creek and I actually outdrove Scott, which I don’t think has ever happened before. I was a very soft pitching wedge away from the green and I struck it beautifully. That fi rst green however, is very fast. Even going uphill, hitting the front of the green wasn’t good enough and my ball rolled off the back. A chip on led to an easy par putt…which I missed. But I hit the ball well and therefore was happy.
No. 2, our last hole of the day, was also collectively our best. Scott took out his rage from a missed birdie putt on No. 1 and clubbed his drive like I’ve never seen him hit before. I was worried that he actually drove over the green onto the cart path, but he ended up just to the right of the green. I followed with another dynamic drive. It wasn’t as far as Scott’s but it found the dead center of the fairway. Bryan also hit a beauty of a drive that was just into the second cut. I blew my second shot but ended with par. Scott missed a makeable birdie putt and took par and Bryan lipped out his par attempt and took a bogey. Rarely do the three of us all fi nd ourselves succeed-ing on the same hole.
So it only took me seven holes to warm up, but I was happy to end the day on a high note. The end score was abysmal, but at least hitting decent drives at the end made me want to come back for more, which I will the fi rst chance I get.

Jammers opener Continued from pg 1
4 CHAUTAUQUA STARFRIDAY, JUNE 28, 2013
There’s one player that I’m perhaps overly excited about. It’s not exactly a position of glamour, but one that Bills could certainly use some help in. Without further ado, the rest of the 2013 Buffalo Bills draft class:
Duke Williams, safety (4th round, 105th over-all) — The first of two defensive back selections by the Bills, Williams isn’t particularly big (6-foot, 190 pounds), but the rookie out of Nevada should get every opportunity to play as Buffalo’s secondary isn’t exactly world class. If the ongoing contract situation with Jairus Byrd spills into training camp, Williams could get an even big-ger opportunity to prove himself. Usually it’s not a big deal, but Williams is from Reno and played his college ball in Nevada. I don’t know the guy, but he’s probably not accustomed to the frigid temperatures that are common of Buffalo winters. Not worrisome, just a thought.
Jonathan Meeks, defen-sive back (5th round, 143rd overall) — Though it was surprising the Bills waited so long to address the defensive back posi-tion, it was refreshing to see them take a pair in the middle rounds. A lot of people just write off late-round picks as depth picks, but defensive back — whether safety of cornerback — is a posi-tion where a guy can really learn the position and play well above his college level. Meeks is a little big-ger (6-foot-1, 210 pounds) than Williams and played against better competi-tion in college at Clemson. I honestly haven’t heard much chatter on this guy, which is strange because he certainly fits the mold of a guy who could develop into a solid starter, though prob-ably not this season.
Dustin Hopkins, kicker (6th round, 177th over-all) — Overly excited alert: I was pretty stoked when the Bills took a kicker in the sixth round. I’m never a supporter of a team handing a big con-tract to a kicker, but I’m also adamantly against the thinking that kickers are a dime a dozen. Field goal kicking is simply way too big a part of today’s game (don’t even get me started on fantasy football kicker’s importance). You need a guy who can boot the 50+ yard bomb and who is practically automatic from inside 40 yards. Remem-ber what happened two years ago when Lindell got hurt? The Bills brought in Dave Raynor — once a starter in the NFL — and he was atrocious. Lindell is still on the roster, so it’s not as if the Bills have just handed the job to a rookie, but Hopkins will get every chance to win the job in training camp and pre-season. Lindell wasn’t par-ticularly bad in 2012 (21 of 24) but too many times the Bills had to punt instead of trying that 50-yarder. That inability to hit the long field goal can be costly. Hop-kins can kick it out of the stadium, so here’s hoping he wins the job.
Chris Gragg, tight end (7th round, 222nd over-all) — Yes, we all wish the Bills had a Rob Gronkows-ki or Jimmy Graham. Most fans would even be thrilled with a Vernon Davis or Jer-michael Finley at tight end. Alas, Scott Chandler has easily been the most pro-ductive tight end the Bills have had in probably the past two decades. That’s not saying Chandler is a star, because he’s not. He’s also coming off a pretty se-rious injury and might not be ready for training camp or even Week 1 of the sea-son. So the Bills took a flier on Gragg in the seventh round. No, he’s not a mis-match nightmare, but he has decent size (6-3, 244), runs well and has solid hands. Never expect him to rise from seventh-round pick to a superstar, but he might be able to form a nice bond with the new quarterbacks and provide them with a little security at the tight end position.
Da’Rick Rogers, wide receiver (undrafted) — If you paid any attention at all during rookie training camp or OTAs, you prob-ably heard coaches, media and other players rave about the skill set of Rog-ers. The kid is freakishly big, strong and fast (6-3, 208) but his off-the-field issues were so severe that literally all 32 NFL teams passed on him in all seven rounds of the draft. That’s certainly not unimportant, but if the Bills management can get through to this kid and he can keep out of trouble, there’s no reason to believe he won’t instantly contribute this season. As mentioned with Goodwin and Woods last week, the wide receiver position is just begging for someone to come in and complement Stevie Johnson. Rogers and Woods (and to a lesser extent Goodwin) could be the rookie receivers to pair with rookie quarterback Manuel to form a core on offense that could legiti-mately be dangerous for years to come. Woods is the surest thing, but no doubt Rogers has the highest ceiling. Think Dez Bryant with even more attitude questions.
To complete the listing, here is the remainder of the Bills’ undrafted rookies (keep in mind that these players rarely make the roster, let alone contributed): Nick-ell Robey, defensive back; Jumal Rolle, defensive back; Drew Smith, running back; Aaron Tipoti, defensive tackle; Zach Chibane, of-fensive guard; Izaan Cross, defensive end; Jordan Dan-gerfield, defensive back; Kip Edwards, defensive back; Kendall Gaskins, running back; Brandon Kaufman, wide receiver; Keith Pough, outside linebacker; Jeff Tuel, quarterback; Ryan Turnley, center. Some of those play-ers might impress in train-ing camp. Others might end up on the practice squad. The only thing for sure is that they’re all fighting an uphill battle to continue their football careers.

Fredonia State's P.J. Gondek has been named chairman of the com-mittee responsible for ranking and selecting the field for this year's 2013 NCAA Division III men's soccer na-tional championship tournament.
A member of the national selection committee since 2010 (and the East regional advisory committee since 2008), Gondek will serve a one-year term as national chairman and will oversee the ranking and selection of championship field, which consisted of 56 teams last season.
He will assume his duties Sept. 1 and, following a series of conference calls, his committee will publish its
first national ranking Sept. 17 based on rankings sent to them by the eight regional advisory committees.
As part of his national duties, Gondek will serve as chairman of the East committee, comprised of 33 New York teams. Gondek and the other regional liaisons will gather Sunday, Nov. 10, at NCAA head-quarters in Indianapolis.
After one final regional call by each liaison, the national committee will convene to choose the at-large en-tries, rank the entire field, and set up a tournament bracket.
After the field is announced, Gondek will serve as a tournament site super-visor for two weeks, and will serve as games committee chairman during national semifinal and championship games in San Antonio on Friday, Dec. 6 and Saturday, Dec. 7.
Gondek has been the head coach at Fredonia State since 2000. His teams have a 13-year record of 141-93-21.

The Fredonia State wom-en’s lacrosse team was ranked No. 19 in the final Intercollegiate Women’s Lacrosse Coaches Associa-tion poll.
The Blue Devils, unranked in the preseason poll, received 58 votes -- two fewer than No. 18 Hamil-ton and three more than No. 20 Ithaca.
It is the first time a Fredo-nia State women’s lacrosse team finished the season in the national rankings, and only the second year the team has attained a na-
tional ranking of any sort. The 2012 team was the first to crack the IWLCA list, and the only team to earn a spot in the NCAA Division
III tournament. This year’s team was ranked as high as No. 14 -- the highest ranking in program history -- yet failed to receive an
NCAA invitation.
The 2013 team finished with a final record of 14-3 and thus tied the school record for most wins in a season.

The first week of the 2013 New York Penn League season is in the books. Jammers first baseman Danny Col-lins kicked off his professional career with a solo home run in his first at-bat against the Mahoning Valley Scrappers. The Jammers would go on to win the game by a 5-0 score.
In seven games this past week, Collins put together a .370 batting average along with 10 hits, a double, four home runs, eight RBI, eight runs scores and three walks. The Niceville, Fla. native also pieced together a .852 slugging percentage along with a .452 on-base percentage. Collins also hit a long ball in three straight games, including a three-run home run in front of the home crowd
at Russell Diethrick Park.
The 2013 13th round draft pick of the Pirates has showed great poise through his first week as a profes-sional and has brought a true power swing to the Jammers lineup night in and night out.
The Jammers currently sit at 5-2 on the season and are tied for first place with State College in the Pinckney Division. Jamestown will open up a six-game homestand starting on Fri-day, June 28 as they host the Auburn Doubledays for three games.

1) St. Louis Cardinals 48-29 Getting swept by Texas was rough, but the +114 run differential is tops in the majors.
2) Pittsburgh Pirates 47-30 Five wins in a row and a very favorable schedule leading to the A.S. break. Believe.
3) Cincinnati Reds 45-33 Notice an N.L. Central theme? Choo is slumping, hit-ting.222 over the past 10 games.
4) Boston Red Sox 46-33 Jacoby Ellsbury is red hot. His contract situation is go-ing to be a big story.
5) Texas Rangers 44-33 Took six of seven against Oakland and St. Louis to take back first place in A.L. West.
6) Oakland Athletics 45-34 A’s have a chance to do some damage with series against Cubs and Royals coming up.
7) Detroit Tigers 42-33 The team is 1st in batting average and on-base percent-age, 3rd in runs and 4th in slugging.
8) Atlanta Braves 45-33 It’s been talked about a lot, but B.J. Upton is hitting .177/.273/.315. You can barf now.
9) Baltimore Orioles 43-35 These guys better trade for a starting pitcher at the deadline because this lineup is lethal.
10) Tampa Bay Rays 41-37 Jeremy Hellickson and Matt Moore quickly put the Jays back in their place - the basement.
11) New York Yankees 42-34 Ichiro briefly made fans forget that he’s a shell of his former self with a walk-off bomb.
12) Arizona Diamondbacks 41-35 Does anyone want to win the N.L. West? D’Backs are struggling badly right now.
13) Toronto Blue Jays 38-38 Don’t be surprised if getting Jose Reyes back sparks another 11-game winning streak.
14) Cleveland Indians 39-37 Scott Ka-zmir has been a pleasant surprise after he was left for dead (career-wise) years ago.
15) Colorado Rockies 39-39 Kudos to Michael Cuddyer for his current 22-game hit-ting streak. Keep is rolling.
16) San Diego Padres 39-39 These guys remind me an awful lot of the 2012 Oak-land A’s. Winning despite the talent.
17) San Francisco Giants 38-39 Giants might be the most disappointing team after winning the World Series in 2012.
18) Washington Nationals 38-38 Cor-rection: The Nats are the most disappointing team. Failing to live up to hype.
19) Los Angeles Angels 34-43 Cor-rection: The ANGELS are the disappointing team. Hamilton is terrible.
20) Kansas City Royals 35-39 Where are the home runs? They’ve only hit 41 on the year. Chris Davis has 28 for the O’s.
21) Philadelphia Phillies 37-41 They get bumped down in the rankings because they play like they just don’t care.
22) Los Angeles Dodgers 34-42 A four-game win streak has helped close the gap in the N.L. West. Only 7 games back.
23) Minnesota Twins 34-39 Trading Justin Morneau has to be done. It’s the best move for the future of the team.
24) Seattle Mariners 34-43 If Pitts-burgh is for real, that probably makes Seattle the most miserable franchise.

The Stars announced Ruff 's hiring Friday in a news release and on the team's website. An intro-ductory news conference was scheduled later Friday.
The Sabres' only Stanley Cup appearance under Ruff came in 1999, his second season as Buffalo's coach. They lost to the Stars after Brett Hull's con-troversial series-winning goal late in third overtime of Game 6.
While the Stars celebrated the title, NHL officials reviewed the goal to deter-mine if Hull's skate was in the goalie's crease before having control of the puck. The goal stood, giving Dal-las its only championship.
For Ruff and Sabres fans, that game has become known as ''No Goal!''
Ruff was the first significant hire for new general man-ager Jim Nill, the 15-year Detroit Red Wings assistant GM who signed a five-year deal in April to replace the fired Joe Nieuwendyk.
''One of the trademarks of successful organizations is their ability to have conti-nuity and stability for an extended period of time,'' Nill said in the release.
''It is clear from Lindy's record, and from our own conversations, that we have found the right person to provide that stability and lead this club to the next level. His steady hand and experience will prove invaluable in returning our team as a top-tier contend-er in the NHL.''
Two weeks after Nill was hired, he decided not to renew the third-year option for coach Glen Gulutzan.
The Stars missed the play-offs for the fifth season in a row, the longest postseason drought in team history. They were 22-22-4 last
season, last in the Pacific Division.
Since Ruff still had two seasons left on his contract with Buffalo, the Stars had to get permission from the Sabres to talk to the 53-year-old coach.
''I am honored to being joining the Dallas Stars organization,'' Ruff said in the release. ''After speaking at length with Jim Nill, it was clear that all the right pieces are coming together to return this club to the upper echelon of the NHL. I look forward to leading the resurgence.''
Nill initially talked to Ruff
at the draft combine in Toronto last month. Jim Lites, the Stars president, told those attending a Fort Worth Chamber of Com-merce meeting Thursday that Ruff was in Frisco that day for more interviews with Nill.
It was 14 years ago Thurs-day that Game 6 ended in the early morning - more than 15 minutes into the third overtime.
Ruff was the Sabres' win-ningest coach (571-432-162), but was fired after Buffalo got off to a 6-10-1 in this year's NHL lockout-shortened season. There had been 170 NHL coach-ing changes between his hiring in July 1997 until he was fired.
Under Ruff, the Sabres made the playoffs in each of his first four seasons and eight times overall. They made the Eastern Conference finals in 2006 and 2007.
As a player, Ruff was se-lected in the second round of the 1979 draft by the Sabres and made the team that year. He was later the Sabres' captain, playing for Buffalo until being traded to the New York Rangers in 1989.

Seventy-six seconds away from defeat and a trip home for a decisive sev-enth game, Bickell tied and, while the Bruins were settling in for another overtime in a series that has already had its share, Bolland scored to give Chi-cago the lead.
The back-to-back scores in about the time it takes for one good rush down the ice turned a near-certain loss into a championship clincher, stunning Boston's players and their fans, and starting the celebration on the Blackhawks' bench with 59 seconds to play.
''We thought we were go-ing home for Game 7. You still think you're going to overtime and you're going to try to win it there. Then Bolly scores a huge goal 17 seconds later,'' said Chicago forward Patrick Kane, who won the Conn Smythe Trophy as the postseason's most valuable player. ''It feels like the last 58 seconds were an eternity.''
The team that set an NHL record with a 24-game unbeaten streak to start the lockout-shortened season won three straight after fall-ing behind 2-1 in the finals, rallying from a deficit in the series and in its finale. Corey Crawford made 23 saves, and Jonathan Toews returned from injury to add a goal and an assist in the first finals between Original Six teams since 1979.
''I still can't believe that finish. Oh, my God, we never quit,'' Crawford said. ''I never lost confidence. No one in our room ever did.''
Trailing 2-1 with Craw-ford sent off for an extra skater, the Blackhawks converted when Toews fed it in front and Bickell scored from the edge of the crease to tie the score.
Perhaps the Bruins expected it to go to overtime, as three of the first four games in the series did. They seemed to be caught off-guard on the ensuing faceoff.
Chicago skated into the zone and Johnny Oduya sent a shot on net that
deflected off Michael Frolik and the post before landing right in front of Bolland.
He chipped it in, and the Blackhawks knew it was over.
The Chicago players who'd been on the ice gathered in the corner, while those on the bench began jump-ing up and down. It was only a minute later, with Boston's Tuukka Rask off for an extra man, that the Blackhawks withstood the final push and swarmed over the boards, throwing their sticks and gloves across the ice.
''I don't think there's any question, even though - let's face it - today was a little bit of luck, we're still the best team in the league,'' Oduya said. ''We proved that during the year, and we proved that during the playoffs. Lot of things have to break right for you, they did tonight, but sometimes the great teams make their own breaks.''
The Bruins got 28 saves from Rask, who was hoping to contribute to an NHL title after serving as Tim Thomas' backup when Bos-ton won it all two years ago.
''It's obviously shocking when you think you have every-thing under control,'' Rask said quietly, standing at his locker with a blue baseball cap on backward and a towel draped over his shoulders.
The sold-out TD Garden was chanting ''We want the Cup!'' after Milan Lucic's goal put the Bruins up 2-1 with eight minutes left, but it fell silent when Boston coughed up the lead. The team came out to salute its
fans as they streamed out of the building for the last time, from the air condi-tioning into the summer air.
''Probably toughest for sure, when you know you're a little bit over a minute left and you feel that you've got a chance to get to a Game 7,'' Bruins coach Claude Julien said. ''And then those two goals go in quickly.''
The arena was almost empty - except for a few hundred fans in red Black-hawks sweaters who filtered down to the front rows - when NHL commissioner Gary Bettman handed the 35-pound Cup to Toews, who left Game 5 with an un-disclosed injury and wasn't confirmed for the lineup until the morning skate.
The Chicago captain skated with the Cup right over the crease in which the Black-hawks mounted the come-back and in front of the fans in Blackhawks sweaters who lined up along the front row behind the net. Toews banged on the glass while the remaining Bruins fans headed up the runways.
He then continued the tradi-tion of handing it from player to player before the team settled to the side of the fa-ceoff circle for a picture with the trophy they will possess for the next 12 months.
Just like in 2010, they won it in a Game 6 on the road.
''In 2010, we didn't really know what we were doing. We just ... we played great hockey and we were kind of oblivious to how good we were playing,'' said Toews, who scored his third goal
of the playoffs to tie it 1-1 in the second period, then fed Bickell for the score that tied it with 76 seconds to play.
''This time around, we know definitely how much work it takes and how much sacrifice it takes to get back here and this is an unbeliev-able group,'' Toews said. ''We've been through a lot together this year and this is a sweet way to finish it off.''
The Blackhawks opened the season on a 21-0-3 streak and coasted to the Presidents' Trophy that goes to the team with the best regular-season record. But regular-season excellence has not translated into playoff success: Chicago is the first team with the best record to win the Cup since the 2008 Detroit Red Wings.
The Blackhawks went through Minnesota in five games and Detroit in seven, rallying in the Western Conference semifinals from a 3-1 deficit and winning Game 7 in overtime. They got through the defending NHL champion Los An-geles Kings in five games to return to the Cup finals, where Boston was waiting.
Chicago won the first game at home in three over-times but dropped Game 2 - another overtime - and fell behind 2-1 in the series when it returned to Boston.
After that, it was all Black-hawks.
The tightly contested finals - with three games going a total of five overtimes - may help fans forget the lockout that shortened the season to 48 games and pushed back the opener to Jan. 19. That left the teams still playing ice hockey on a 95-degree day in Boston on June 24, matching the lat-est date in NHL history.
A Game 7 would have excited most hockey fans even more, and the series seemed to be heading there for the sixth time in 10 years before Bickell and Bolland turned it around.
''Dave Bolland, what else can you say about that guy?'' Kane said. ''He just shows up in big playoff games.''
