Will Mild Weather Continue?
Every one's talking about the mild winter we are having and there was not much more then a dusting of snow or an inch or two in some sections of the county on Wednesday night and early Thursday morning of last week with the winter weather advisory for Wednesday January 12 at night calling for snow to wintry mix with no significant snow accumulations and for Thursday January 13 temperature at 39 degrees and some rain.
When you ask a meteorologist why the mild temperatures and rain instead of snow they say its a result of autumn being autumn and not a sign of a weakening La Nina weather pattern.
Love talking with a meteorologist because what they say certainly means something to them but to the ordinary non-weather related person its just a lot of fancy words.
The forecasters noted that November was the fifth-warmest since records began in 1950 and some have even reported that this will be the mildest winter in five years.
Now I just love this report from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration who said it expects the La Nina weather phenomenon that results in cooler temperatures in the Equatorial Pacific, to become the most dominant factor influencing weather across the country, but added that a change in pressure called the Arctic Oscillation could make it difficult for forecasters to predict more than a week or two in advance.
Trying to look ahead the MDA EarthSat is saying that through the February winter period it (meaning temperatures) will be slightly above normal for the Northeast.
Some weather experts have gone out on the edge of the limb to predict the mildest winter in five years.
Anyway you look at it there is a plus and minis side to this issue with folks being able to save on heating costs and municipalities saving on snow removal expenditures.
Merchants selling snow removal equipment and supplies along with winter clothing outlets see a dramatic drop in sales and winter resorts offering skiing, skating and snow tubing activities and folks who enjoy cross country skiing, snow shoeing, ice fishing, small game hunting and snowmobiling also don't appreciate this type of weather.
The mild weather has also forced the postponement of the annual Livingston Manor Rotary Club's Annual Ice Carnival that had originally been slated for January 15. The Ice Carnival committee said their efforts to make ice had been hampered by the warm weather.
Are weather predictions always right? With this thought in mind forecasters are quick to note that our present conditions are not necessarily indicative how the entire winter will turn out.....can you figure that one out.... we are taking it one step further and suggest that you do not take the snow tires off your car or put away the snow shovels and snow-blowers for next year.

BOWLING HIGHLIGHTS COLUMN 1-13-12
Tom Clark Is New PBA Commissioner
Fred Schreyer, Chief Executive Officer and Commissioner of the Professional Bowlers Association has retired after 11 years of service to the organization. The PBA Board of Directors has named Geoff Reiss Chief Executive Officer and has promoted Tom Clark to the position of Commissioner.
Schreyer will continue to serve the PBA as a senior advisor.
"Fred has managed the PBA through a really challenging period. We're grateful for his leadership and that he's agreed to continue working with us to grow the PBA," said Mike Slade of the PBA ownership group.
Schreyer joined the PBA full-time in October 2002 as Chief Operating Officer and General Counsel, and was named Commissioner in 2003. But he has been affiliated with the organization since 2000 as its legal counsel. The University of Michigan and UCLA Law School graduate has 25 years of experience in the sports industry, including a seven-year stint as Director of Sports Marketing at Nike and was a founder of Nike's Sports Management division.
Among Schreyer’s signature accomplishments during his tenure at the PBA’s helm were negotiation of umbrella sponsorship packages with Denny’s and Lumber Liquidators, opening PBA membership to women for the first time (2004), creation of the PBA Summer Series, creation of the PBA World Series of Bowling, production of the PBA’s 50th Anniversary Gala in 2009 and working to allow PBA members to represent their country as Team USA members.
"Serving the PBA for the past 11 years has been a great privilege and a tremendous experience,” Schreyer said. “It is always difficult to step back, but I feel good about handing the reins to Geoff and Tom. As the PBA embarks upon its 53rd year, I look forward to continuing to provide assistance wherever I am needed."
Reiss, who joined the PBA as Vice Chairman in March 2011, previously held several positions at ESPN, was CEO at Associated Content, and was Senior Vice President/General Manager of Newsweek's digital division. While at ESPN, Reiss managed the launch of ESPN.com, NFL.com, NBA.com, and NASCAR Online. He also was Senior Vice President/General Manager of ESPN the Magazine, and managed ESPN's relationships with Electronic Arts, Microsoft, and The Tribeca Film Festival. He developed and acquired the Peabody Award-winning Dan Klores documentary Black Magic. He started his media career at Spy magazine.
"The PBA has a terrific opportunity to establish an important presence in the sports marketplace and I'm looking forward to working with our team, members and industry partners to fully realize our potential," said Reiss.
Clark became the PBA’s Vice President and COO in March 2008 after serving as the Vice President of Marketing and Communications for the United States Bowling Congress. Clark, who was promoted to Deputy Commissioner in 2009, came to USBC from USA Today where he worked as a sports editor from 2000-2005. Previously he was an executive editor and sports editor for newspapers in the Media General chain and founded and published a sports magazine in his hometown Syracuse, N.Y.
The former collegiate bowler was named Bowlers Journal International magazine’s “Person of the Year” in the bowling industry for 2005 for his efforts in bringing publicity to the game. Clark also was the recipient of the 2008 Billiard and Bowling Institute of America Industry Service Award and the 2009 USBC Joyce Deitch Trailblazer Award.
"It's an honor to be given this opportunity to help build an organization that has meant so much to my life," Clark said. "I love the sport of bowling and the PBA and I'm energized by that same passion for the game that our players and fans have shown for over 50 years."
The PBA also has announced that Kirk Von Krueger, Vice President and Director of PBA Tours, has been promoted to Deputy Commissioner. Von Krueger, a former PBA touring player, began his career with the PBA in 1995 as assistant Tournament Director, becoming Tournament Director in 1996..
The Bowling Tip
By Mike Luongo
Bowlers: This weeks tip will help you execute and r repeat good shots by having your body set properly so that you can use the laws of physics to roll the ball and eliminate tension in your swing.
As I've mentioned in previous columns, too much upper body and head movement make i very difficult to repeat shots.
The purpose of the stance is to place the body in an athletic position, eliminate all unnecessary movements during the approach and reduce tension.
Resting forearms against the body, in the stance, will help reduce tension in the upper body.
How do we do this?
Here are the four steps in the proper order for setting posture.
1. Set the feet (toward your break-point).
2. Set your head (tilted over the ball).
3. Set your posterior (this is your balance point as you are swinging a heavy object).
4. Set the ball position close as noted above.
You are now in position to start a smooth approach. Maintain your body position and let the ball swing under your shoulder. You will find this easy to repeat shot after shot.
An important thing to note here is if your ball does not fit, it will be difficult to eliminate tension from your swing.

The Bowling Tip
By Mike Luongo
Bowlers: This week's tip is for any bowler who ends up out of balance at the foul line when delivering a bowling ball.
If you find your self unable to finish your delivery in a strong balanced position, it may be a result of your follow through.
It is important that when you follow through on your delivery, you do not reach OUT with your arm. but UP with your follow through. The reason?
If you reach out, the weight of the ball will pull your upper body forward and may cause you to lose your balance. If you reach up, you can stay planted in a strong, solid position to deliver your bowling ball with accuracy and leverage.
Mike Luongo is a certified IBPSIA Pro Shop Operator and Master Instructor, USBC Silver Level Coach and an Advisor along with being involved with Special Events with the Storm and Roto Grip Bowling Ball Company. Have a questions, call him 434-720-7939 or vie mail at mikel@stormbowling.com

New Stadium For SWB Yankees
Sullivan County baseball fans who enjoy their trips to the New York Yankees triple-A affiliate Scranton/Wilkes-Barre (SWB) Yankees games won't be seeing any games at the Moosic PNC Field this coming season as the facility undergoes a massive 40 million dollar reconstruction project during the upcoming baseball season.
The new construction project will create a unique facility that will enhance the fan experience and will involve the removal of the present stands and seating area and construction of fan seating something similar to major league ball parks.
The present playing field is expected to remain as it.
The 20-plus year old stadium was getting to the point of being considered a rapidly aging facility and enhancements and improvements to the stadium were needed to generate adequate revenues.
The new renovations will enable the SWB Yankees the ability to create a facility that will be the envy of minor league baseball.
Funding of the project has been approved by Pennsylvania Governor Corbett and the Multi-Purpose Stadium Authority of Lackawanna County Stadium.
Preliminary plans call for the project to be completed this year and the SWB Yankees returning to PNC Field for the 2013 season.
Six different venues will host the SWB Yankees games in 2012 including facilities at Rochester, NY, Syracuse, NY, Allentown, PA, Batavia, NY, Buffalo, NY and Pawtucket, RI.
Minor league baseball at PNC Field in Pennsylvania and also at Dutchess Stadium near Beacon and at NYSEG Stadium in Binghamton have become increasing popular for area baseball fans because of the high cost of attending baseball at Major League facilities.
