Bowling Highlights Column 11-23-12


Shafer Shows Professionalism

  Showing true professionalism and his love for the sport of bowling Professional Bowlers Association (PBA) 9th ranked bowler Ryan Shafer spent last Sunday afternoon helping and instructing Sullivan County bowlers on how to improve their game.
  Assisted by Storm-Roto Grip Bowling Ball sales consultant and Northeast Regional Sales Manager Mike and Mickey Luongo the three took to the lanes at Callicoon Kristal Bowl and game tips and instruction on how one could improve their bowling skills.
  This event featured sample balls from both Storm and Roto Grip which bowlers were encouraged to use with special inserts fitting bowlers fingers allowing them to grip the balls as it they were specially drilled for them.
  Mike Luongo noted that this allows bowlers to try out different bowling balls to see which one fits their individual style of bowling.
  Shafer, 46, resides in Horseheads, NY and he achieved a 9th place ranking during his competition in this past years competition.
  Ryan, in an exclusive interview with this columnist, said he just completed competition in the 2012 Geico PBA World Series of Bowling at the South Point Bowling Center in Las Vegas where six events are held on the four "animal patterns" and "my inability to double in the 10th frame kept me out of the top 24."
  "If that house suits your style of bowling you can compete if it doesn't bowlers have difficulty winning," Shafer said. 
  Ryan added that "the two handed bowlers like Australia's Jason Belmonte do very well at South Point."
  He noted that "the World Series of Bowling events are not popular with the professional bowlers but that the event was necessary because of the economics of staging tour events in different cities week after week."
  "The World Series event is leading to losing fan base throughout the country," he added.
  When asked about the lack of PBA tour events on the East Coast Ryan expressed disappointment that for the past two years there is only one stop at North Brunswick, NJ.
  At age 46 Shafer feels he is "still competing well and I enjoy the support and relationship with Storm-Roto Grip and as long as this continues I will stay out on the tour."
  Shafer when asked about the new PBA team event competition said "I was picked by Sean Rash and became the only Storm bowler on a team with four Brunswick bowlers including Walter Ray Williams." 
  The purchase of a bowling center in Horseheads is also on his agenda as well as his continued support of Animas who supplies him with his diabetic pump and supplies which help him control diabetes which he was diagnosed with at age 19 and has allowed him to compete on tour with  the disease his entire career. He participates in many seminars and appearances for the Johnson & Johnson Company that sells the Animas pump. 
  The bowling ball demonstrations along with a display of bowling shoes attracted bowlers from throughout the county with well known bowlers like John Hoffmann, Union College Ky. collegiate bowler Eddie Walsh, Pedro Agapito and United States Bowling Congress Ti-County delegate Dean  Shattuck making appearances.
  Kristal Bowl Monday night ladies league bowler Mardette Wilcox has been suffering with a sprained thumb on her bowling hand which Mike Luongo looked at and added some tape to the thumb hole to give relief to the injured thumb and allowed Mardette to go out and bowl a 180 and 200 plus games.
  Bowlers attending this historic event also had the opportunity to watch a bowling demonstration by Ryan which clearly showed  why he was able to win four PBA tour titles, roll a nationally-televised 300 game, has finished runner up five times in making the finals in major championships 13 times, is the owner of 19 PBA regional titles and became the 30th PBA bowler to reach the $1 million mark in career earnings.
  Mickey Luongo, an outstanding bowler in his right, gave a bowling demonstration using Storm's newest bowling ball the "IQ" which is due to be released to the public on December 5. 
  Sullivan County District 5 Legislator Cindy Kurpil Gieger, who admits to not being a bowler, took time out from her busy schedule to attend this event and was introduced to Ryan.
  Truly a well organized and popular bowling event staged by Ryan, Mickey and Mike Luongo.

 Ed's Outlook

  Bowlers who took advantage of last Sunday's Storm-Roto Grip bowling ball demonstration had the great opportunity to meet three of the finest gentlemen in the professional sport of bowling.
  PBA tour player Ryan Shafer showed  his true love for bowling by reaching out to bowlers and giving them instruction on how to improve their game. Mike and Mickey Luongo showed just a tip of the great knowledge they posses with instruction and bowling ball knowledge that area bowlers have appreciated for many years. 
  Thanks Ryan, Mike and Mickey for bringing class to the sport of bowling in Sullivan County.

Bowling Tip
By Mike Luongo

  Bowlers: This week's tip is for all bowlers regardless of their skill level and it has to do with understanding the correct body position needed to execute a bowling shot and being able to duplicate it.
  If you were to stand straight on the approach, facing the pins, letting the rest in your hand, you could not swing the ball straight without hitting your hip.
  This is impossible to do without swinging the Ball around your hip because the ball is too big. This "roundhouse swing" is not able to be duplicated shot after shot. 
  Therefore, you might be in a position to be able to swing the ball toward your desired target without any obstacles.
  The tip: Get your head as far right (or to the left if you are left handed) and tilt your bowling shoulder slightly downward. 
  Contrary to what some of your fellow bowlers might tell you, you must drop your shoulder toward the floor in order to avoid the "roundhouse swing." At the same time, slightly open your hips and shoulder and you will be able to swing your arm straight toward your target time and time again.
  Due to different physiologist, the exact position may vary slightly from person to person. When correctly positioned you can use gravity to control the tempo of your swing.
  Note: If you were to shoot a game of pool, or go to a range and shoot a bow or rifle, note the position your head would have to be in to be effective in these activities.

FIRE DESTROYS HISTORIC HOOS BUILDING

  A devastating fire possibly fueled by propane swept through the historic Hoos Building Tuesday afternoon and  destroyed four local business locations located at the intersection of Main and Pearl Streets.
  Several bystanders at the scene of the fire said they heard an explosion somewhere around 3:30 and shortly after that the left side of the building housing the Moose-Be-Morning   
Coffee Co. Cafe was engulfed in flames.
  Livingston Manor firemen quickly arrived at the scene and noted, "it was cooking when we got here."
  Smoke from the fire was reportedly seen from as far away as Monticello.
  Firemen from Roscoe and Liberty assisted at the scene with Liberty using their ladder truck to get above the blazing building. 
  Youngsville firemen stood by at the Livingston Manor Fire House.
  Both Livingston Manor Volunteer and Mobilmedic EMS were on the scene but only one minor injury was reported that being an injury to the eye of one of the firemen. 
  A large contingent of New York State police secured the fire scene and kept telling people to get at least 100-yards away from the building. They were very much aware of a large propane tank located in the rear of the building and when it exploded it shook buildings several block away.
  When the large propane tank exploded it set a large heavy metal lid high in the air which landed near the front sidewalk of the Sunoco Gas Station some 50 to 60 yards across the street. EMS personnel at the scene indicated it would have seriously injured someone if it had hit anyone.  
  The historic Hoos Building was estimated by its present owner Barry Foster to be over 100 years old and was formerly owned by Odie Hoos's father and then by Odie and his brother Fred. At one time Alice Hoos ran the famous Hoos Bakery where they featured the best Coffee Crumb cake made.
  Odie Hoos for years operated a popular luncheonette in the part of the building that presently housed the Lazy Beagle Pub & Grill.
  Barry Foster owned the building for the past eight years and the Lazy Beagle Pub has been in operation for four years and three months.
  Tenants in the building also included the Willow and Brown clothing and housewares shop.
  Barry himself owned and operated the Hot Corner Sports Collectibles store which contained a considerable amount of baseball and sports memorabilia. 
  Former Town Supervisor Lee Siegel at the scene of the fire said "this is a tremendous loss for our community."
  It was also reported at the scene that a propane delivery had been made earlier in the day and that the operators of the Coffee Cafe usually close up for the day around 2 p.m.
  No one was occupying any of the business locations at the time of the fire. 
  Livingston Manor Fire  Chief Dan Roser has indicated that the building is "destroyed" and Sullivan County Emergency Services Commissioner Richard Martinkovic pointed out that as a result of the damage sustained to the building it would have to be leveled.
  As to the possible cause of the fire Martinkovic said that "everything is centered around propane." 
  It took several hours to bring the fire under control but the fire  triggered NYSEG to cut off the power in that section of the community with electricity coming back on somewhere shortly after 10 p.m. that evening. 
  The building was leveled overnight and indications Wednesday morning were that the site  would not meet building code standards for construction of a new building at this location.

Fighting Autism And ADHT

  Autism and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHT) is a part of many children's lives but the struggle they face on a daily basis is thankfully not being overlooked by our medical and educational systems.
  In order to highlight the growing need for concern and awareness about autism, the Autism Society gives a special opportunity for everyone to educate the public about autism and issues within the autism community.  
  People with ADHD may have trouble paying attention, controlling impulsive behaviors (may act without thinking what the result will be), or they may be overly active.
  There is no cure for ADHD but it can be successfully managed and some symptoms may improve as the child ages.  
  When we have conversation with educators about autism they point out that something as simple as going to the movies is not an option for many families affected by autism.
  Medical and educational experts note that autism is a complex developmental disability that typically appears during the first three years of life and affects a person's ability to communicate and interact with others.     
  While doing some research about autism it was shocking to learn that the Autism Society estimates that the lifetime cost of caring for a child with autism ranges from $3.5 million to $5 million and that the United States is facing almost $90 billion annually in costs for autism. 
  With strong dedication by those in the medical field and educational systems like BOCES is has become very clear that autism is treatable. 
  Children do not "outgrow" autism but studies show that early diagnosis and intervention lead to significantly improved outcomes. 
   The Autism Society, the nation's leading grassroots autism organization, exists to improve the lives of all affected by autism. 
  Each year, people with autism, families and professionals volunteer thousands of hours to help the  Autism Society achieve its mission of serving all those affected by autism.
  The Autism Society can be contacted at 4340 East-West Hwy, Suite 350, Bethseda, Maryland 20814.
  A big thank you to all who help create and provide services that will advocate the rights of all people with autism to live fulfilling and interdependent lives,

Bowling Highlights Column 11-16-12


New Lane Conditions For USBC Open

   For the first time in 110 years of tournament history, the United States Bowling Congress Open (Men's) Championships will feature two lane conditions - one oil pattern for team competition and another for doubles and singles.
  A new daily schedule will be introduced at the 2013 event to allow for the lanes to be oiled before every squad. The change creates the opportunity to use two different lane conditions.
  "We've worked hard to find a way to have fresh oil for every squad because it gives everyone an equal starting point, and having two lane conditions really will test the bowlers' versatility," said Brian Lewis, USBC's Managing Director of Tournaments. "The Open Championships is the premier event for USBC members, and it's our goal to provide an environment that reflects that."
  In order to make fresh oil for every squad possible, six bowlers will be on each pair of lanes for doubles and singles, compared to four in the past.
  To keep the pace of play steady, all six games of doubles and singles will be contested on the same pair of lanes. In the past, competitors would bowl doubles then flip to an adjacent pair for singles.
  Team squads will be held at 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. each day, and doubles/singles squads will take place at 7 a.m., 11 a.m. and 10:30 p.m. The tournament will be held at the one-of-a-kind National Bowling Stadium from March 1 until June 30.
  Bowlers interested in getting a sneak peek of the doubles and singles lane condition can do so by competing in the Storm Bowlers Journal Championships presented by USBC.
  For the first time, the Bowlers Journal Championships will be held in the same venue as the Open Championships, and the 2013 edition of the BJ will utilize the doubles and singles oil pattern from the main tournament.
  The Bowlers Journal Championships, which has complemented the Open Championships for more than six decades, will be held on the high end of the 78-lane NBS.
  The 2013 edition of the Bowlers Journal Championships will feature,  Lower entry fees,  A new three-game format, Extended hours,  Traditional and senior singles and doubles competition,  Return of the 199 & Under Handicap Singles as well as a new Women's Handicap Doubles,  All new Super Senior Singles (for bowlers 60 and older)
 and Instant Payback and jackpots. 
  Bowlers looking to practice on the lane condition that will be used for the team event at the 2013 Open Championships can do so on the 900 Global Showcase Lanes on the ground floor of the National Bowling Stadium.
  The 10 custom-built lanes will be used for coaching, team or individual practice and two more unique side tournaments, the 900 Global Two-Game Challenge and Who's Got the Look Baker Bonanza presented by 900 Global.The cost to practice on the 900 Global Showcase Lanes will be,  $200: One-hour session with a USBC-certified coach (based on availability),  $100: One hour of practice for up to 10 bowlers (no coach). 
  For more information about the lane conditions, side events or Showcase Lanes at the Open Championships, visit BOWL.com/openchamp.

The Bowling Tip
By Mike Luongo

  Bowlers: This week's tip will help you understand correct shoulder alignment when throwing your strike ball and making spares.
  When throwing a bowling ball, the shoulders  should not necessarily be straight (perpendicular) in relation to the lane.
  Instead, they should be aligned straight to the target mark you are trying to hit. This is called pro setting the angle of the shoulders.
  There are three rules regarding shoulder alignment.
  1. When playing straight down the boards, your shoulders should be straight in relation to the lane. 
  2. When making shots to the right of the head pin, open your shoulders in relation to the lane.
  3. When making shots to the left of the head pin, close your shoulders in relation to the lane.
  Doing this is easy if you imagine that there is a three-foot arrow poised on your right or left shoulder (left if you are left handed). Simply point the arrow at the target and the angle will automatically be correct.
  Note: Your arm swing  should never change, instead, adjust the angle of the shoulders so that your arm swing is in line with the target.

Here & There Column 11-13-12


 Politics And Fiscal Crisis

  A drop in voter turnout certainly was not a good sign that came out of last Tuesday's elections and one would start to get the feeling that voters are losing interest in the political mess that confronts all of us. 
  Preliminary figures show fewer people voted this year than four years ago when voters shattered turnout records. There are figures that show some could not make it to the polls as a result of Superstorm Sandy.
  Dirty politics just doesn't sit well with the majority of the folks who do their job and get to the polls. 
  Even after the elections were over nasty remarks by a facebook contributor wrote, "Hey Tea Party, how does it feel to be legitimately raped," when in all reality this does not help in what many feel is the need for bipartisan solutions since the Democrats control the White House and Senate while the Republicans reign supreme in the House of Representatives.
  Faced with a divided legislative branch Washington must display true bipartisan efforts to win back the support of American voters who have recorded low popularity status for Congress and their dealings. 
  With the elections results there is no doubt we could  continue to see trench warfare and no solutions to the looming fiscal crisis and economic problems facing this country.
  Regarding the topic of economic problems it was interesting to note that on Wednesday of last week Vice President Biden said that he and President Barack Obama are anxious to move forward on a bipartisan solution to the looming "fiscal cliff" that could force tax increases and across-the-board spending cuts next year.
  Cooperation between the Republicans and Democrats must take place to pay down our $16 trillion debt, to find a centrist immigration reform solution and to reform the tax code.
  The political "elect me" BS is now like water over the dam and all politicians must do some real soul-searching to dislodge the gridlocked process and allow deals to be made.
  Compromise, work together and solve the problems facing our country or their popularity will continue to go down  the drain.

Don Durland Scores 14th 300
                 
   Twenty-four year-old Wurtsboro bowler Donald Durland recorded his 14th career 300 on October 31 while subbing in the Wednesday Men's league at Kiamesha Lanes. 
  Donald bowls regularly in the Monday Men's league at Kiamesha Lanes where he maintains a 241 average, Tuesday in the Men's league at Hoe Bowl On The Hill Lanes in Kingston with a 223 average and Thursday in the Men's l;eauge at Tarsio Lanes in Newburgh with a 220 average.
  In the October 31 perfect game he rolled a Storm IQ Tour bowling ball on Lanes 15-16. In this league he maintains a 236 average. Donald finished out this league match with a 215, 268, 783 series.
  His 13th 300 was bowled February 6 of this year in the Kiamesha Lanes Monday Men's league..
    Durland's 11th and 12th  perfect games came within a weeks span.on December 5 and December 12, 2011,  in the Monday Men's league at Kiamesha Lanes.
    The early weeks of December appears to be a good time of the year for Durland as he also bowled his highest career series on  December 1, 2010 when he clipped the maples for a 825 off of single games of 258, 279, 288 in the Wednesday Men's League at Kiamesha Lanes.
    His 11th career 300 was bowled on lanes 13-14 while his 12th 300 game was bowled on lanes 3-4. On both nights he used two bowling balls, the Hammer Jig Saw Trap and the Roto Grip Rising Star. The Hammer ball was used for his first two games on December 5 where he also scored a 276 and 232 and the Roto Grip ball helped him roll the two 300 games in the last game of both nights for a 808 series December 5 and a 201, 246, 300, 747 on December 12.  
   Durland over the past several years has shown steady league growth and at one point in time competed in PBA regional tournaments. He indicated last year that "it just got too costly to compete in these events." 
    He is easily considered one of the premier men bowlers in the Tri-State area.    Donald recorded his first-ever 300 game during the 2005-2006 season as a youth bowler in the Saturday Morning Youth leagues at Kiamesha Lanes. His mother, Debbie Durland is one of the premier women bowlers in the Tri-County area and his father Paul and younger brother James maintain the high Durland family bowling standards. James is now bowling collegiate competition in Kentucky.  
    Prior to his 825 series his previous high series was a 796 off single games of 268, 249 and 279 and was bowled several years ago in the Monday Men's league at Kiamesha Lanes.
    He has been bowling since the age of 5.
    Donald is single and is employed by the Monticello Greenhouse.

Sandy Humbled Everyone

  A week has passed since New York and the Northeast were blasted by Superstorm Sandy.
  The storm showed many things about New York. It exposed the city's vulnerabilities .....it also displayed its strengths.
  There is no doubt Sandy humbled everyone.
   On Wednesday last week it was very clear that restoring the region to a regular pace would take several days....rebuilding the hardest-hit areas and transportation networks will take considerably longer. Some without electricity could take weeks before power is restored. 
  It was rewarding to see folks standing together, shoulder to shoulder, ready to help a neighbor, comforting a stranger and doing the best one could do to get so many folks back on their feet.
  The damage and pain inflicted by Sandy still is unfolding even this week and new challenges keep popping up.
  Both federal, states and local community budgets, all suffering as a result of a weak economy will be hit up hard to cover the cost. New York is already facing a $1 billion deficit and local governments are so strapped that some mayors fear bankruptcy in coming years.
   Sandy has dealt a severe blow to the U.S. Economy that will reverberate for weeks and months ahead. 
  Mother nature has given us a firm reminder of who's  the boss but we also have received firm reminders that we have many who were out there before the storm, during the storm and after the storm keeping us safe and trying their best to get us all back up and running.
  Kudos go out to all police agencies, fire departments, ambulance corps, highway departments, utility workers and thousands upon thousands of volunteers who helped in relief and recovery efforts.

Bowling Highlights Column 11-2-12



PBA Team Bowling To Debut 

   The Professional Bowlers Association will introduce an eight-team pro bowling league for the 2012-13 season, featuring PBA stars as Franchise Players, a draft of PBA members to fill out the five-player team rosters and a television series resulting in six ESPN telecasts.
  The historic PBA League will make its debut during the Detroit PBA Winter Swing Jan. 19-27 at Thunderbowl Lanes in Allen Park, Mich., feature a live ESPN show on Sunday, Jan. 27 of PBA League Round 1 action and conclude with the PBA League Elias Cup Finals, honoring PBA founder Eddie Elias, at Woodland Bowl in Indianapolis on Sunday, March 31 (airing Sunday, April 7 on ESPN).
  Bowling has deep roots in team competition and as a part of its 2012-13 season, the PBA is going to return five-player team bowling competition to the spotlight, but in a way it has never before been seen.
  Details on significant aspects of the league such as team names, owners and sponsors will be released soon.
   The PBA League will consist of eight five-player teams, each representing a city to be named later. Each team will be headed by a Franchise Player – a PBA star who will draft players to fill his team. The Franchise Players will be the top eight players from the 2011-12 PBA Tour competition points list: Sean Rash of Montgomery, Ill.; Jason Belmonte of Australia; Mike Fagan of Dallas; Pete Weber of St. Ann, Mo.; Osku Palermaa of Finland; Norm Duke of Clermont, Fla.; Bill O’Neill of Langhorne, Pa., and Chris Barnes of Double Oak, Texas.
   There will be a draft involving all PBA members who make themselves eligible.
   Official practice started today for the PBA World Series of Bowling in Las Vegas, a random drawing will determine the selection order for the eight Franchise Players. Each Franchise Player will draft four additional players to fill out his roster from the list of PBA members who have registered to participate in the program.
   The draft itself will be held on Friday, Nov. 9, and air live on Xtra Frame, the PBA's online bowling channel. It will be done in “serpentine” fashion whereby each Franchise Player will pick one player in pre-determined order. Whomever picks eighth will also pick ninth, and the draft order will be reversed, moving back up the list. The Franchise Player who picked first will then pick 16th and 17th, etc. The draft will consist of five rounds (to allow for selection of a sixth, or supplemental, player). 
   PBA League competition begins Jan. 22 at Thunderbowl in Allen Park, Mich., as part of the Detroit PBA Winter Swing. Over a span of four days, the Winter Swing will feature a series of open-field tournaments (the Carmen Salvino Classic, Mark Roth Classic, Don Carter Classic and Earl Anthony Players Championship) which will award individual PBA Tour titles and also produce qualifying scores for the PBA League competition.
   The Salvino, Roth and Carter events will feature eight-game qualifying rounds with 16 players advancing to modified nine-game round-robin match play rounds in each event. The top two qualifiers after 17 games in each event will bowl for the title.
   The combined 32-game qualifying totals from the Salvino, Roth and Carter Classics – plus an Anthony Championship qualifying round – will determine the 16 players who will advance to the nine-game round-robin match play finals of the Players Championship. The top two qualifiers after a total of 41 games (32 qualifying, nine match play) will bowl for the Earl Anthony Players Championship title.
   At the same time they are bowling in the individual qualifying rounds, members of the PBA League will be bowling for their teams. Scores for all five players after each qualifying round will be added together to determine the team seeding positions for the Baker format stepladder finals. The top three teams after each team round advance to the stepladder finals; the other five teams will bowl in a “shootout” round to determine the fourth team in each stepladder final.
   The one exception to the team qualifying rule will be for PBA League Round 1, which will be televised live on ESPN on Sunday, Jan. 27, at noon ET. That show will feature the top five teams based upon their 32-game cumulative totals from the Salvino, Roth, Carter and Anthony qualifying rounds.
   All PBA League finals on ESPN will be one-game Baker team stepladder matches. In Baker format competition, each member of the team bowls two frames (i.e., leadoff bowler bowls first and sixth frames, anchor bowler bowls fifth and 10th frames, etc.). Points will be awarded to each team based upon its finishing position after each of the five team rounds. After five rounds, the top four teams will advance to the PBA League Elias Cup finals which will be contested in conjunction with the live PBA Tournament of Champions finals on March 31 at Woodland Bowl in Indianapolis.
   The Detroit PBA Winter Swing will produce five ESPN television shows, including a live telecast of PBA League Round 1 on Sunday, Jan. 27. Subsequent shows will be taped to air on Feb. 10, Feb. 17, March 3 and March 24. 
   The inaugural PBA League Elias Cup stepladder finals will feature the top four teams in points, bowling in a Baker format showdown in Indianapolis. The finals will air on ESPN on April 7.
    The “salary” structure will pay Franchise Players (technically the first-round picks) $10,000 each. Second-round picks will receive $7,000, third-round picks $5,000, fourth-round picks $3,000 and fifth-round picks $2,000 each. The sixth, or supplemental-round, picks will not be paid, but will be compensated by their teams if they are needed due to injury or other unforeseen events.
   In addition to the guaranteed salary money, there will be significant rewards for the four teams that advance to the PBA League Championship round. The PBA League champion will receive $75,000 ($15,000 per player). Second place will pay $30,000 ($6,000 per player), third place $20,000 ($4,000 per player) and fourth place $10,000 ($2,000 per player). The other four teams will not cash.

Bowling Tip
By Mike Luongo

  Bowlers: This week I would like to let you know about the RD (which stands for radius of gyration and core torque) in bowling balls.
  First to help you understand the RG , a modern weight block in a professional bowling ball is composed of several parts of different densities.
  Each of these densities has two characteristics. It is a certain volume and it occupies a certain location. When fused together, all of the different densities (all the weight in the ball) act as if they are a single unit of a single density that is rotating at a single distance from the center of the ball. 
  This is all the RG is. It is a  measurement that tells you how far from the center of the ball the weight acts like it is rotating.
  As far as core torgue, it is a phase we use in the industry to measure the "flip" in the ball. The higher the number, the harder the ball will turn the corner. As with anything else, it is a guide for estimating potential.
  How flippy a ball really will be is determined by the shape of the core, the bowlers style, the surface of the ball and the lane condition it is thrown on.
  A tall skinny core will generally flip harder than a short fat core. Even with all of this, it is important that there is no substitute fora good shot.
