WILKES-BARRE - When he offered to

paint the green line along Main Street


for the citys St. Patricks Day Parade,
Ben Gadomski showed his true colors.
He had a crew from his company, M
Mayo Striping, in town Sunday morning
to get the route ready.
Gadomski who, by his recollection,
has painted the line for about 10 years,
sensed something wasnt right when he
didnt hear fromthe city as the March 16
parade day approached.
If they dont call me for the green
line, I call them, Gadomski said. He g-
ured the city didnt have the money to
pay for it.
Last week, the citys administrative co-
ordinator, Drew McLaughlin, said there
were still discussions about the line, but
the parade would go on without it.
It is generally donated and we are
seeing if that could be done again,
McLaughlin said Friday. On Saturday he
conrmed a donor had stepped up.
Describing himself as the type of per-
son willing to help someone in trouble,
Gadomski said he got on the line and
spoke to someone at City Hall, telling
them, I guess this is one of those years
where were going to donate it. The
reaction was what he expected. They
were very appreciative, he said.
City ofcials struggled to get through
last year, laying off 11 reghters and
several other employees in December.
This year they raised property taxes and
fees and kept the reghters furloughed
for more than a month before bringing
them back in February to stay within the
citys $44.9 million spending budget that
PITTSBURGH What causes
clear, fresh country well water to
turn orange or black, or smell so
bad that its undrinkable?
Residents of a western Pennsyl-
vania community have been trying
for more than a year to get that
question answered in their quest
to get clean water back.
Some of them say the water
was spoiled by drilling deep un-
derground for natural gas. Others
point to pollution from old coal
mines. Theyve also been told it
could even be a bafing mix of nat-
ural and man-made reasons that
change the water over time, like
the leaves change on trees. But no
one knows for sure, and they say
the uncertainty is maddening.
In late 2011, the drinking water
for about a dozen residents in the
Woodlands, a rural community 30
miles north of Pittsburgh, began
to change. At rst, the families
blamed gas drilling, or frack-
ing, being done 2000 feet away.
But state tests showed the water
wasnt contaminated by drilling,
and even more confusingly, many
Tuesday is the last day vic-
tims of the 2011 ood will have
a free place to live in a FEMA-
issued mobile home, though
those electing to will be able to
rent their temporary homes for
a further six months, the Fed-
eral Emergency Management
Agency said.
The agency sent trailers to
provide housing for 113 Lu-
zerne County households af-
fected by the September 2011
ood of the Susquehanna Riv-
er that devastated unprotected
communities in the county and
elsewhere.
It also constructed a new
mobile home park in Tunkhan-
nock Township holding 40
to 50 trailers for Wyoming
County residents affected by
ooding. Twenty-two trailers
remained occupied in Luzerne
County last week, while all
Wyoming County residents
had moved out.
Statewide, 246 of about 300
temporary housing recipients
have moved out of the trailers.
By law, disaster victims
are eligible to receive tempo-
rary housing assistance for 18
months from the date a presi-
dential disaster declaration is
issued; Sept. 12, 2011 for Trop-
ical Storm Lee.
According to agency spokes-
man Peter Herrick, FEMA has
extended the eligibility period
for residents to stay in the trail-
ers by six months, or through
Sept. 12, but starting April 1
residents must pay rent to stay
in the trailers.
VATICAN CITY The Vatican
insists that the cardinals participat-
ing in the upcoming conclave will
vote their conscience, each inu-
enced only by silent prayers and
reection. Everybody knows, how-
ever, that power plays, vested inter-
ests and Machiavellian maneuver-
ing are all part of the game, and
that the horse-trading is already
under way.
Can the fractious Italians rally
behind a single candidate? Can the
Americans live up to their surprise
billing as a power broker? And will
all 115 cardinals from around the
world be able to reach a meeting
of minds on whether the church
needs a people-friendly pope or a
hard-edged manager able to tame
Vatican bureaucrats?
This time there are no star car-
dinals and no big favorites, making
the election wide open and allow-
ing the possibility of a compromise
candidate should there be dead-
lock.
While deliberations have been
secret, there appear to be two big
camps forming that have been at
loggerheads in the run-up to the
conclave.
One, dominated by the powerful
Vatican bureaucracy called the Cu-
ria, is believed to be seeking a pope
who will let it continue calling the
shots as usual. The speculation is
that the Curia is pushing the can-
didacy of Brazilian Odilo Scherer,
who has close ties to the Curia and
would be expected to name an Ital-
ian insider as Secretary of State
the Vatican No. 2 who runs day-to-
day affairs at the Holy See.
Another camp, apparently spear-
headed by American cardinals, is
said to be pushing for a reform-
minded pope with the strength to
shake up the Curia, tarnished by
inghting and the Vatileaks scan-
dal in which retired Pope Benedict
XVIs own butler leaked conden-
tial documents to a journalist.
These cardinals reportedly want
Milan archbishop Angelo Scola as
pope, as he is seen as having the
clout to bring the Curia into line.
The other key question to re-
solve is whether the pope should
be a pastoral one somebody

>> TAKE US TO YOUR BACHELORS: Its a scien-
tic fact that our television transmissions travel out
into space at the speed of light. If there are aliens
paying attention, that means your favorite shows will
one day be seen by some six-armed crab creature
from the planet Ulg. I wonder what theyll make of
tonights season nale of The Bachelor. Hmm.
What a strange culture. They may think. They turn
the mating ritual into a made-for-TV spectacle with
embellished drama. Prepare to invade! The show
starts at 8 p.m. Catch it before the Ulgian ships ar-
rive.
>> SUPER FUZZY HEROS: Long before the Aveng-
ers laced up their tights, Spider-Man slung out a web
or Batman pulled on his mask, there was Super Grover.
The blue Muppet has been attempting to ght what
crime exists on Sesame Street for decades. And now,
he needs help. You can see how Grover gets out of his
predicament when Sesame Street Live Elmos Super
Heroes leaps into the Mohegan Sun Arena later this
week. Shows run from Thursday through Sunday.
Bring the kiddos and have some fun.
>> BUZZ OVER BUZZARDS: It must be tough
being a turkey buzzard. In the world of migrat-
ing birds, it plays second ddle to the more
famous swallows of San Juan Capistrano. Every-
where, that is, except in Hinkley, Ohio, where the
turkey buzzard is treated like feathered royalty. In that
northern Ohio town, March 15 is known as Buzzard
Day and is celebrated with festivities galore. Its sort
of like Groundhog Day in Punxsutawney. Except with
buzzards instead of rodents.
>> PATRON SAINT OF PARTIES: In the fth century,
St. Patrick crisscrossed Ireland preaching the Gospel
and saving souls. For his missionary work, he became
known as the Apostle of Ireland and was eventually
honored with sainthood. And how do we honor his
good works? We paint everything green, drink beer and
throw parties. Thank you, St. Patrick! In Wilkes-Barre,
that party will be this Saturday, when the city holds its
parade. The actual St. Patricks Day is on Sunday, so
that gives you two excuses to celebrate.
>> THE CHOSEN ONES: To college basketball
fans, no sporting event compares to the
Mens NCAA Tournament. But before those
games tip off next week, they rst have to
ll up the March Madness dance card. The
big wigs at the NCAA take on that task on
March 17, aka Selection Sunday. Theo-
retically, that means 68 lucky teams
will be chosen for the chance at
basketball glory. But in reality, the
North-Southwestern Idaho Val-
ley States of the world are just
cannon fodder for the Dukes of
the world. But, hey! They can
dream. The selection begins
at 6 p.m. on CBS.

Stanley J. Novak
March 9, 2013
S
tanley J. Novak, 65, passed
away suddenly Saturday,
March 9, 2013 at home.
Born Sept. 24, 1947 in Pittston,
he was a son of the late Hubert
and Carol (Monteforte) Novak.
He was a lifetime resident of
Pittston. Stanley was last em-
ployed by the Sunday Dispatch
and Times Leader newspapers
until his retirement several years
ago. He was a member of the Tri-
angle Club in Miners Mills and
had prior involvement with the
Sons of the American Legion 477
Pittston and the Italian-American
Citizens Club in Pittston Town-
ship.
In addition to his parents, Stan-
ley was preceded in death an in-
fant son and infant daughter.
Stanley lived his life accord-
ing to his rules, having enjoyed
his almost daily routine of visit-
ing the Mohegan Sun Casino. He
considered many of its employees
as family and made it a point to
be on a rst-name basis with ev-
eryone he encountered. He was a
New York Giants and New York
Mets fan, but his true enjoyment
came with the birth of his only
grandchild, Nick. Pop and Nick
shared an unbreakable bond.
He is survived by his wife, the
former Jean Waleski; daughter,
Lisa Bolka, and grandson, Nicho-
las (Nick) Bolka of Pittston; sis-
ters, Sharon Roeber and Karen
Novak, both of Pittston; and a
brother, Hubert Novak, Houston,
Texas.

SUGAR NOTCH The bor-
ough council meeting ended
abruptly Wednesday night as
Mayor William Davis, who was
presiding when tempers ared,
halted a debate over allegations
that Councilman Mario Fiorucci
was requesting leniency for a
defendant arrested by a borough
ofcer.
Near the end of a meeting
riddled with outbursts and ar-
guments, Fiorucci, who is also
director of roads, stopped before
giving his report and presented
a printout from the Sugar Notch
Police Associations Facebook fan
page.
He referenced a specic post
made earlier that day by the as-
sociation. According to the post,
an unidentied councilman had
asked for leniency for a criminal.
How about a councilman
showing up at a preliminary hear-
ing to show support and ask for
leniency for a criminal, the post
said.
Fiorucci asked Police Chief
Chris Pelchar if he had made the
post and if it were in reference to
him.
Pelchar said the police associa-
tion is a community-run organiza-
tion and, though it supports the
department, is not responsible to
the borough. He declined to an-
swer Fioruccis question, but con-
rmed later that he had written
the post.
Fiorucci said he had been in
the courtroom that day, Feb. 19.,
because two of his neighbors had
been in a ght and were to ap-
pear before District Judge Joseph
Halesey. Fiorucci said he was late
and missed his friends hearing,
but arrived in time for Gregory
Richards hearing, who is also his
neighbor and was attending ar-
raignment for his 10th burglary
charge, crimes he allegedly com-
mitted to support his heroin ad-
diction.
Fiorucci said he made a joke
with the chief.
I said, Well, Im here to turn
myself in, Fiorucci said. I was
kidding him because theyre al-
ways trying to get me on trespass-
ing and I just laughed.
He said he asked about the
judges ruling for his neighbor
and that was all he said.
But Pelchar said the humorous
conversation never happened.
He said Fiorucci told him he was
there for Richards. Pelchar also
conrmed that Fioruccis neigh-
bors appeared before the judge
just before Richards arraign-
ment.
Pelchar said he overheard Fi-
orucci talking in the room, saying
that Richards needs compassion.
The police chief said, above all,
he was concerned that a council-
man was speaking for a defen-
dant, not the victims. If I could
say anything, its that someone
has to speak for the victims, Pel-
char said.
Earlier in Wednesdays meet-
ing, volunteer Fire Chief Joe
Rutkoski asked Fiorucci about
road-clearing priorities during
snowstorms.
On Feb. 8, re department vol-
unteers responded to a possible
structure re at 9:45 p.m. It was
snowing heavily that night and
re truck engineer Mark Wasick-
anin said that despite driving at
only 2 or 3 mph he lost control of
the truck moving downhill.
Wasickanin said he hit about
3 inches of snow as soon as he
pulled out of the station garage.
Many people were upset at the
meeting because borough plows
always have prioritized emergen-
cy routes during storms.
Fiorucci, a three-year council-
man who has served as director
of roads for a year and a half, said
he is in charge of policy. He said it
is not his job to follow road crews
to make sure they prioritize plow-
ing.
I dont go out and drive
around with them, Fiorucci said.
I dont know when to call them
every minute and when not to.
Thats how it is.
Victor Vega, a resident, several
times called for the council to
move beyond the bickering and
put things in place to prevent ac-
cidents.
Im addressing the borough
in general, Vega said. I believe
adults run the borough. I believe
adults run the road crew.
Sugar Notch councilman, police chief disagree

police blotter
with the charisma and commu-
nication skills to attract new
members to a dwindling ock
or a managerial one ca-
pable of a church overhaul in a
time of sex-abuse scandals and
bureaucratic disarray.
Its hard to nd any single
candidate who ts the bill on
both counts.
Italy has the largest group of
cardinal electors with 28, and
believes it has a historic right
to supply the pope, as it did
for centuries. Italians feel its
time to have one of their own
enthroned again after 35 years
of foreigners, with the Polish
John Paul II and the German
Benedict.
But Italians are divided by
which Italian church groups
they have been afliated with,
and which leaders they follow.
A dispute that pitted the follow-
ers of the archbishops of Genoa
and Florence is said to have cost
them the papacy in 1978 after
455 years of Italian popes.
Andrea Riccardi, a founder
of the Sant Egidio community
and minister of cooperation in
the Italian government, says
Italian cardinals should get the
rst look.
The pope is bishopof Rome,
Riccardi said. Only if the selec-
tion of an Italian becomes im-
practical should it be the case
to look in another direction.
From one point of view, the
Italians have already suffered a
setback. The selection of Tues-
day for the conclave to begin
is considered a victory for the
foreigners who had sought
more time to get to know get
to know one another amid pres-
sures to begin voting as early as
Sunday.
And the leading Italian
newspaper Corriere della Sera,
which polled experts on Sat-
urday, found Boston Cardinal
Sean OMalley topped their list
of papal favorites ahead of
both Scherer and Scola.
Two other Americans Car-
dinal Timothy Dolan of New
YorkandCardinal DonaldWuerl
of Washington also emerged
as potential popes in the sur-
vey. That was a surprise since
Americans had largely been
written off because of potential
negative perceptions of elect-
ing a superpower pope. Vatican
watchers have also noted that
an American pope would likely
have difculty dealing with an-
ti-Christian violence and perse-
cution in the Islamic world.
But there are 11 American
cardinal-electors, second in
number only to the Italians,
and they are being talked up
for their perceived managerial
skills.
The American reputation
may have been boosted by the
Vaticans decision to silence
their daily pre-conclave news
conferences. The American
eagerness for transparency
has been well received among
Catholics and cast in sharp
contrast to the secrecy-prone
Italians.
There is one more camp,
which presumably commands
enough votes to inuence the
election.
It is the Benedict faction,
the 67 voting cardinals who
owe their red hat and presence
in the conclave to the most re-
cent pope. They make up more
than half of the voters.
Their loyalty to Benedict
could damage the ambitions of
any cardinal thought to have
damaged his papacy and been
part of the divisions that
Benedict lamented in his nal
addresses.
Who might that be? Their
names are presumably listed
in a secret report prepared for
Benedict about the Vatileaks
scandal.
Only a few people have seen
that report. None of the car-
dinals who will be voting is
among them.

high-prole position as head of the Vaticans ofce for bishops, his conservative leanings, his
years in Latin America and his work in Rome as president of a key commission for Latin Ameri-

Looking to cure nursing shortage
HAZLETON The Great-
er Hazleton Health Alliance
held a job fair in the main
lobby of the Hazleton Gen-
eral Hospital on Sunday to
attract area registered nurses
to career opportunities within
their organization.
We currently have a num-
ber of open positions for RNs
here at Hazleton General,
said Human Resources Direc-
tor Lorrie Defey. And were
also making sure we have
qualied candidates to ll po-
sitions that come open when
one of our nurses retires.
Defey said that although
candidates will be considered
for positions in specialty ser-
vices throughout the hospi-
tal, the main area of practice
for newly hired nurses is the
facilitys medical-surgical
unit, which provides for the
greatest scope of one-on-one
patient care and allows the
nurse to garner expertise in a
small-scale, community-based
hospital.
Were proud of our rela-
tionship with nursing schools
throughout the area, such as
Luzerne County
Community Col-
lege, Misericordia
University and
Bloomsburg Uni-
versity, said Def-
ey. We just hired
a number of gradu-
ate nurses from Lu-
zerne County Com-
munity Colleges
2012 class and
were not through
hiring nurses. We
love to hire and
train graduate nurs-
es here at Hazleton
General Hospital.
Defey said the hospital of-
fers a competitive wage and
comprehensive benets pack-
age in an intimate, employee-
friendly setting. Were taking
care of neighbors, family and
friends here, Defey said.
Many nurses are attracted to
this type of atmosphere.

Exploits of
Mollies
hailed at
Eckley
By RALPH NARDONE
Times Leader Correspondent
Presentation at village and
museum focuses on lm shot
in coal region.
ECKLEY Many residents
of Northeastern Pennsylvania
can recite the history of the
infamous Molly Maguires and
their battle against oppressive
coal mining operators in Eck-
ley.
Eventually 10 of them were
hanged after being accused of
murdering coal bosses.
On Sunday, more than 200
history buffs, coal-mining en-
thusiasts and curious folks of
all ages gathered at the Eckley
Miners Village museum to hear
the tale again from Jim Burke,
who worked closely with Para-
mount Pictures when it distrib-
uted the movie The Molly Ma-
guires in 1970. They also were
treated to a complimentary air-
ing of the lm in the museum
auditorium.
Burke, who oversaw the -
nances of the movie, told the
group the Molly Maguires were
not criminals, but in fact he-
roes. He hailed their efforts to
defend the poor mining fami-
lies and ght against the cor-
rupt coal barons.
My hats off to them, Burke
said.
The immigrant miners in
those days dealt with harsh dis-
crimination, horrendous work-
ing and living conditions and
the threat of cofn notices,
where they faced violence if
they did not comply with coal
company mandates, Burke said.
These types of conditions ex-
isted for 50 years and affected
40 different ethnic groups, he
added.
It wasnt just some brave
Irish immigrants; they all be-
came fed up, Burke said.
They did what was necessary
to end the evil, he said.
The crowd laughed as he told
stories about the visits of actors
Sean Connery and Richard Har-
ris to local bars hand wrestling
with the local yokels and being
thrown out of one bar in Jim
Thorpe. He also talked about
reports from retired police
claiming the staff from Para-
mount Pictures did its share of
reveling all over Northeastern
Pennsylvania.
When approached with the
script for the movie, Burke said
his answer was an enthusiastic
Hell, yes! to take it on. He
knew the story had to be told
to honor instead of curse the
group who boldly shaped indus-
WEST PITTSTON Hillary Clin-
ton, Michele Obama, Kate Middleton
and other famous women dead and
alive will be at the West Pittston Li-
brary two Saturdays later this month.
To honor Womens History Month,
Stephen Taren, the owner of Wet Paint
Inc. and historicalcutouts.com based
in Wilkes-Barre, has agreed to lend the
library his collection of life-size card-
board cutouts of 31 women who made
their mark in world history.
Interactive displays will be created
allowing visitors to learn more about
the women and books related to each of
them will be laid out with each display
so those who want to learn even more
can check them out.
Library Director Anne Bramblett
Barr said that for some women the
library did not have as many or as up-
dated books in its collection as she
wanted, so a portion of this years book-
purchasing budget was spent resolving
that shortcoming.
Barr said the success of the librarys
2011 exhibit of the Worlds Only Presi-
dential Life-Sized Cardboard Cutout
Collection was a driving force behind a
new collaboration with Tarens compa-
ny. The plan to display famous women
was set for last year, but the 2011 ood
that inundated the library and many
Susquehanna River communities not
protected by a levee put those plans on
the backburner.
As the community rebuilt and the li-
brary moved back into its home at 200
Exeter Ave., the idea was resurrected.
The cutouts will be on display dur-
ing two special free open houses at the
library. The rst will be on Saturday,

March 16 from 1-5 p.m. and the

on Saturday, March 23 from 10

Participants can spend time
learning little-known facts
about these fascinating women,
such as who was accused of
stealing a diamond necklace,
who was married to her brother
for a short time, who wore only
white clothes, who grew up in
foster homes, who was nick-
named Little Sure Shot and
whose research papers are so
radioactive they are considered
too dangerous to handle.
Those tidbits of information
make learning about these fa-
mous women fun.
One of my favorite parts
about creating this display is the
research that goes into discover-
ing memorable details of these
womens lives, said Summer
Belles, youth services coordina-
tor at the library. She also did
the research for the presidents

We may know that Harriet
Tubman was instrumental in
leading hundreds of slaves to
freedom in the North through
the Underground Railroad.
However, we may not know
that she sustained a severe head
wound while she was a slave
and later in life underwent brain
surgery without anesthesia,
choosing instead to bite down
on a bullet like she had seen
Civil War soldiers do on the

JOB FAIR
Martz bus with PSU students catches re
A Martz Trailways bus bring-
ing Penn State students to cam-
pus after spring break caught
re Sunday afternoon on Inter-
state 70 a few miles from the
Breezewood exit.
Caroline Hagerty, a fresh-
man at Penn State, said she was
sleeping when passengers start-
ed yelling for the bus driver to
pull over.
I was up and it smells weird
and people were yelling,
Hagerty said.
When the bus pulled over,
Hagerty and the rest of the
passengers grabbed what they
could and ran off the bus.
She said the bus was engulfed
about ve minutes afterward,
and no one was injured in the
incident.
The bus was one of three
traveling from the Washington,
D.C., area back to State College.
Hagerty said hers was the third
in line, and the other two buses
had to circle back to pick up the
stranded students.
The students arrived in State
College on another bus late
Sunday.
Hagerty said she was able to
save her belongings, but some
students werent able to do so.
For the people who had their
stuff in the overhead compart-
ments, they didnt have time
to grab their stuff, and thats
where the re was primarily,
she said.
Penn State spokeswoman
Lisa Powers said Residence Life
is assisting students whose uni-
versity ID cards and keys were
destroyed in the re.
Pegeen Sheakoski, of State
College, was traveling in the
same direction when she came
upon the bus shortly after it
caught re.
We were coming up the hill,
and all we saw was jet-black
smoke, Sheakoski said.
She said the white bus was
pulled along side the road, and
passengers were standing out-
side with their luggage.
It looked like the whole top
part was burnt out, Sheakoski
said.
Martz Trailways could not be
reached for comment.

CARACAS, Venezuela
Venezuelan opposition leader
Henrique Capriles is set to
announce he will run in elec-
tions to replace Hugo Chavez,
setting up a make-or-break
encounter against the dead
presidents hand-picked suc-
cessor, a close adviser to the
candidate says.
He will accept the nomi-
nation, the adviser told The
Associated Press. He spoke
Sunday on condition of ano-
nymity because he was not
authorized to discuss the de-
cision publicly ahead of a for-
mal announcement scheduled
for later in the day.
Other opposition sources
refused to comment, but a
political consultant at ORC
Consultores, which advises
Capriles, also said he would
run.
He will put himself for-
ward, said Oswaldo Ramirez.
History is giving Capriles Ra-
donski an important role.
Venezuelas election com-
mission has set April 14 as the
date of the vote, with formal
campaigning to start just 12
days earlier. Ramirez said the
40-year-old opposition leader
would demand that ofcials
extend the campaign period
by moving up the start date
by more than a week, and that
acting president Nicolas Mad-
uro not be allowed to abuse
state resources to boost his
chances during the campaign.
Maduro has already an-
nounced his intention to run
as the candidate of Chavezs
socialist party. On Sunday he
picked up the support of Vene-
zuelas small communist party
as well.
Capriles faced a stark
choice in deciding whether
to compete in the vote, which
most analysts say he is sure
to lose amid a frenzy of sym-
pathy and mourning for the
dead president.
Some say a second defeat
for Capriles just six months
after he lost last years presi-
dential vote to Chavez could
derail his political career. If he
waits, a Chavista government
led by Nicolas Maduro, the
acting president, might prove
inept and give him a bet-
ter shot down the road. But
staying on the sidelines also
would have put his leadership
of the opposition.
If he says he doesnt want to
run I could totally understand
that, said David Smilde, an
analyst with the U.S.-based
think tank the Washington Of-
ce on Latin America.

Six teens die in crash
An SUV carrying eight teenagers
crashed into a guardrail Sunday morn-

Ohio, killing six of them and injuring
the others, the Ohio State Highway Pa-
trol said.
The Honda Passport veered off the
left side of a road, hit a guardrail and
overturned, Lt. Anne Ralston said. In-
vestigators say it came to rest in a pond
just south of the city of Warren, about
60 miles east of Cleveland near the
Pennsylvania state line.
Ralston didnt know where the teens
were headed. She didnt have any infor-
mation to release on possible causes of
or factors in the crash.
Two of the teens, both 15, were
brought to a hospital in full cardiac
arrest, St. Joseph Health Center nurs-
ing supervisor Julie Gill said, and were
pronounced dead there. She said they
were treated for hypothermic drown-
ing trauma, indicating they had been
submerged in cold water.
The two teen boys who survived
were treated for bruising and other in-
juries and released, she said.
All those killed were ages 14 to 19,
authorities said.

Capture test for Syrian rebels
As the rst major Syrian city to fall

shaping up to be the best test case yet
for how opposition ghters will admin-

dent Bashar Assad is ousted.
While the citys newrulers try to gov-
ern, they are struggling with the same
divisions that have hampered the rebel
movements effectiveness throughout
Syrias civil war.
The rising power of Islamic extrem-
ists in their ranks also could block
them from receiving badly needed aid

Obamas
latest tack
is praised
WASHINGTONRepublican
lawmakers said Sunday they wel-
come President Barack Obamas
courtship and suggested the
fresh engagement between the
White House and Congress
might help yield solutions to the
stubborn budget battle that puts
Americans jobs at risk.
Yet the lawmakers cautioned
that years of hurt feelings were
unlikely to heal simply because
Obama dined last week with Re-
publican lawmakers. They also
said they would not to rush too
quickly into Obamas embrace
during three scheduled, and un-
usual, visits to Capitol Hill next
week to win them over.
He is moving in the right di-
rection. Im proud of him for do-
ing it. I think its a great thing,
Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla., said.
Im welcoming (him) with open
arms. I think the president is tre-
mendously sincere. I dont think
this is just a political change in
tactic. I think he would actually
like to solve the problems of this
country.
The White House charm of-
fensive comes as automatic
spending cuts have begun to
take hold, and if Washington
does not block them, they could
cut jobs as varied as air trafc
controllers, meat inspectors and
Head Start teachers.
I hope that this is sincere,
said Republican Rep. Paul Ryan,
chairman of the House Budget
Committee, who lunched with
Obama at the White House last
week. We had a very good, frank
exchange. But the proof will be
in the coming weeks as to wheth-
er or not its a real, sincere out-
reach to nd common ground.
His close friend, Rep. Cory
Gardner, R-Colo., said lawmak-
ers were unlikely to become fast
friends with Obama after four
years of being vilied in private
and, in some cases, public. I
hope that hes genuine. But I
dont think were going to be do-
ing the Harlem Shake any time
soon together, Gardner said.
And Tea Party favorite Sen.
Ron Johnson of Wisconsin
who has proved a ery foil to
Obamas agenda said he heard
from White House chief of staff
Denis McDonough and now is
willing to give the president the
benet of the doubt.

woo lawmakers to help avert a
coming budget showdown
the next deadline is March 27.

reactors were performing at acceptable
safety levels at the end of 2012, Macfar-
lane said, citing a recent NRC report.
You cant engage that many reactors
and not have a few that are going to
have difculty, she said.
But the watchdog group, the Union
of Concerned Scientists, has issued a
scathing report saying nearly one in
six U.S. nuclear reactors experienced
safety breaches last year, due in part to
weak oversight. The group accused the
NRC of tolerating the intolerable.
Using the agencys own data, the sci-
entists group said 14 serious incidents,
ranging from broken or impaired safe-
ty equipment to a cooling water leak,
were reported last year. Over the past
three years, 40 of the 104 U.S. reactors
experienced one or more serious safe-
ty-related incidents that required ad-
ditional action by the NRC, the report
said.
The NRC has repeatedly failed to
enforce essential safety regulations,
wrote David Lochbaum, director of
the groups Nuclear Safety Project and
author of the study. Failing to enforce
existing safety regulations is literally a
gamble that places lives at stake.
NRC ofcials disputed the report
and said none of the reported incidents
harmed workers or the public.
Today marks the two-year anniver-
sary of the 2011 earthquake and tsu-
nami that crippled Japans Fukushima
Dai-ichi nuclear plant. U.S. regulators,
safety advocates and the industry are
now debating whether safety changes
imposed after the disaster have made
the nations 65 nuclear plants safer.
New rules imposed by the NRC re-
quire plant operators to install or im-
prove venting systems to limit core
damage in a serious accident and set
up sophisticated equipment to monitor
water levels in pools of spent nuclear
fuel.
The plants also must improve protec-
tion of safety equipment installed after
the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks and
make sure they can handle damage to
multiple reactors at the same time.
Macfarlane, who took over as NRC
chairwoman last July, said U.S. plants
are operating safely and are making
progress on the new rules, which im-
pose a deadline for completion of 2016
ve years after Fukushima.

U.S. and Taliban colluding, Karzai alleges
KABUL, Afghanistan
Afghan President Hamid
Karzai on Sunday accused
the Taliban and the U.S. of
working in concert to con-
vince Afghans that violence
will worsen if most foreign
troops leave an allegation
the top American command-
er in Afghanistan rejected as
categorically false.
Karzai said two suicide
bombings that killed 19
people on Saturday one
outside the Afghan Defense
Ministry and the other near a
police checkpoint in eastern
Khost province show the
insurgent group is conduct-
ing attacks to demonstrate
that international forces
will still be needed to keep
the peace after their cur-
rent combat mission ends in
2014.
They are trying to fright-
en us into thinking that if the
foreigners are not in Afghan-
istan, we would be facing
these sorts of incidents, he
said during a nationally tele-
vised speech about the state
of Afghan women.
Karzai is known for mak-
ing incendiary comments in
his public speeches, a tac-
tic that is often attributed
to him trying to appeal to
Taliban sympathizers or to
gain leverage when he feels
his international allies are
ignoring his countrys sover-
eignty. In previous speeches,
he has threatened to join the
Taliban and called his NATO
allies occupiers who want
to plunder Afghanistans re-
sources.

PRESIDENT Obama
said that the country
needs to have a conversa-
tion about rearms, and
their role in our society.
A constructive discus-
sion requires, however,
honesty, good faith, and
competence from all participants. These
qualities have not been forthcoming from
the leaders of the gun control movement.
President Obama, Vice President Biden,
and New York Governor Andrew Cuomo
are all attorneys. Obamas and Cuomos
public implications that the Second
Amendment protects the right to shoot
clay pigeons and deer respectively prove,
therefore, that they are either dissemblers
or not competent to practice law. Cuomo,
as HUD Secretary, meanwhile orches-
trated malicious lawsuits that blamed gun
manufacturers for not doing the job of the
Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms
Enforcement by supervising gun dealers.
Biden said recently that, if his wife ever
felt threatened, she should re both barrels
of a shotgun from the porch of her home.
This might admittedly frighten an intruder
because no criminal wants noise that might
attract the police. It would also leave Mrs.
Biden with an empty weapon should a real
criminal be present, and even expose her
to criminal charges. John Garey, a former
Delaware deputy attorney general, said
that Jill Biden could be charged with ag-
gravated menacing, a felony, and reckless
endangering in the rst degree if she fol-
lowed her husbands advice (U.S. News &
World Report online, Joe Bidens Shotgun
Advice Could Land Jill Biden in Jail).
Another Delaware attorney, Tom Shel-
lenbarger, was equally explicit. I am a
member of the Delaware Bar, as is Vice
President Biden. There are a number of
statutory restrictions that could be violated
by shooting a shotgun off the porch. This
makes the head of Obamas gun safety
task force either dishonest or not compe-
tent to practice law. I would go with the
former explanation because Biden previ-
ously used his Senate Web site to falsely
accuse a man, at the expense of that mans
family, of killing Bidens rst wife while
driving drunk.
The Department of Homeland Security
recently posted a YouTube video that ad-
vises people to bring scissors to gunghts.
The video also depicts responding police
ofcers recklessly endangering innocent
people and each other with rearms. DHS
disabled ratings and comments for the
video after it got almost universally nega-
tive feedback.
Colorado State Senator Jessie Ulibarri,
meanwhile, advised people to bring ball-
point pens to gunghts, and attack the
gunman while he is reloading; that is, after
he has already shot numerous victims.
Another Colorado legislator, Joe Salazar,
said that women should not carry guns
because they are likely to shoot men whom
they merely suspect are going to rape
them. Colorados Democratic-controlled
House stood behind Salazars misogyny by
passing legislation to ban licensed con-
cealed carry on college campuses. Salazar
added that women should rely instead on
call boxes and safe zones on university
campuses, as if sexual predators who wont
obey laws against rape will respect desig-
nated safe zones.
State Rep. Ronald Waters and other Phil-
adelphia legislators recently re-packaged
Jim Crow as House Bill 521, which would
require concealed carry permit holders to
purchase $1 million in liability insurance.
This would effectively limit the right of
self-defense to those able to afford it, which
is exactly how Tennessee once discouraged
gun ownership by Black people. The state
banned the sale of all rearms except the
expensive Army and Navy Model revolv-
ers, which were beyond the means of most
African-Americans and working-class
Caucasians.
A meaningful conversation requires hon-
esty, good faith, and accurate information
from all participants. The foremost drivers
of new gun control legislation have proven
themselves unable to contribute to such a
dialogue, and voters should guide them-
selves accordingly in the 2014 Congressio-
nal elections.

T
HE 13-HOUR libus-
ter by U.S. Sen. Rand
Paul, R-Ky., has so
many angles, its hard
to know where to start.
Theres the fact that it was
one of the few actual standing
libusters these days, and one
of the longest in history.
Theres the fact that while
Paul was wrongly standing in
the way of President Barack
Obamas choice to lead the CIA,
John Brennan, the reason
seeking more information about
the presidents rationale for us-
ing drones on American citizens
was a worthy one.
Theres the fact that when it
comes to that issue an Amer-
icans constitutional right to due
process those on the left and
right are in agreement. Paul is
far to the right on most issues.
But heres New Yorker writer
Ryan Lizza, a favorite among
liberals, following the libuster
last night on Twitter: Shame-
ful that no Dems but (Oregons
Ron) Wyden have joined this. I
mean some things are just not
partisan.
Theres the fact that after the
libuster failed, Sen. John Mc-
Cain, R-Ariz., went to the Senate
oor to harangue his colleague
and anybody who supported
him, saying: I dont think what
happened yesterday is helpful
to the American people. Pre-
sumably McCain believes his in-
creasingly frequent, but shorter,
harangues are helpful.
With all due respect to the
one-time maverick, hes just
dead wrong. Pauls libuster
was helpful for two reasons.
The most important one is
that Americans turned their at-
tention away from the seques-
ter spin cycle long enough to
discover that Attorney General
Eric Holder wrote a letter sug-
gesting that, hypothetically, if
the president knew that anoth-
er Sept. 11 or Pearl Harbor was
about to be carried out by an
American on U.S. soil, he might
have the constitutional author-
ity to shoot a Hellre missile
into that Americans car.
Thats a specic and drastic
extension of the authority the
president claims, and has used
once, to target American citi-
zens on foreign soil who have
joined the enemy.
For more than two years,
Congress has been mostly ab-
sent in this very important de-
bate. Paul changed that.
The answers arent easy.
Would we sacrice one life to
save thousands, even if that per-
son deserved the same consti-
tutional protections the rest of
we Americans have? Would all
other options have to be ruled
out rst? What if the president
is wrong? Where does the slip-
pery slope begin and end?
This is the debate the country
had about the Patriot Act, but
mostly too late, after post-Sept.
11 fears led our leaders to rush
to limit civil rights to protect us
from terrorists. Its the debate
we should be having about the
drone technology.
The key isnt whether Paul
and his supporters are right, or
whether hawks like McCain are,
its about forcing the debate and
bringing it into the American
consciousness. Paul did that.
At the same time, he brought
attention to how truly broken
the Senate is by using an old-
school libuster. Just a day
before Pauls libuster, the Sen-
ate blocked yet another of Mr.
Obamas judicial appointments.
We dont know why or who. No-
body stood. Nobody talked.
Maybe thats why McCain
was so upset on Thursday: Paul
called out his own party for its
failure to have the courage of its
convictions.
The truth hurts.

A younger generation
joins the March for Life
As I write this, tomorrow will be the last
day of the infamous month of January. Infa-
mous because to Bible-centered Christians
it is the month when Roe vs. Wade became
the law of our land.
As he has for the past many years my
husband of 75 attended the national March
for Life in Washington D.C on the 25th.
Since Jan 22, 1973, more than 55 million
totally defenseless babies have died on the
altar of fear, convenience and shame.
This years march was a great joy to us
who have fought this battle for 40 years
because 80 percent of the hundreds of
thousand marchers were under the age of
25-30.
They call themselves the Aborted Gen-
eration and their love and conviction show
their determination to stop this slaughter.
Instead of disappearing as our op-
ponents insisted would happen with the
March, it has grown beyond imagination
and become younger.
There were interviews with college stu-
dents who had traveled for days and held
all night vigils of prayer before the March.
Interviews were televised with many
whose mothers were victims of rape, incest
and the life of the mother, yet had the cour-
age to bring the baby to life and adopted
into loving families.
Do not look for this great event on many
TV stations except for EWTN, which cov-
ers it from rally to Supreme Court. Like
those who fought against slavery, believing
that this slaughter must end is not politi-
cally correct.
Use your computer to search for 2013
March For Life and witness these hun-
dreds of thousands of young people the
Aborted Generation stand up for our
Constitutional right to life for all born
and unborn..

MMIGRATION reform
is on the front burner in
Washington, and Ameri-
cans have to separate fact
from ction.
An estimated 11 million peo-
ple live in the United States ille-
gally, 160,000 in Pennsylvania.
A Reuters/Ipsos poll says
that 23 percent of Americans
think all illegal aliens should
be deported. For this group, im-
migration reform means tighter
border security, not a path to
citizenship. Sixty-one percent
said some undocumented work-
ers should be allowed to stay.
People who want illegal im-
migrants deported note that
being undocumented is a crime,
that letting them stay is unfair
to people who want to move
here legally, and that they take
jobs away from Americans,
push down wages, increase
crime and drain social services.
New York Times columnist
Adam Davidson wrote that in
places where large numbers of
illegal immigrants live, they
strain social services, schools
and medical care. But all econ-
omists, of all political persua-
sions, agree that immigrants
those here legally or not
benet the overall economy.
According to experts, Mr.
Davidson wrote, illegal im-
migrants depress wages for
unskilled workers. But they
increase productivity and raise
wages for skilled workers, re-
sulting in a net wage gain. They
also contribute $15 billion a
year to Social Security and col-
lect only $1 billion in benets.
The debate must acknowl-
edge that the United States is
not going to deport 11 million
people. It would take too long
and cost too much.
The real debate is about how
many immigrants get to stay
and under what conditions.
That needs to be measured, bal-
anced and based on fact.
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
Immigration facts
needed for reform
that included $30,000 for the
parade.
As in previous years, it re-
lied on sponsors to cover the
cost of the event that draws
thousands downtown. So far,
$22,025 has been committed
and it looks as if the city will
have to tap into its general
fund to pay the balance. How-
ever, the nearly $1,100 it cost
to paint the green line and re-
install sections of the double-
yellow lines on South Main
Street wont cost the city a
cent.
A look at the weekend
weather forecast had Gadom-
ski eager to get to work even
though the parade was almost
a week away.
I didnt want to take a
chance, he said, adding his
company based in Falls has a
lot of contracted work to do.
Having the green stripe be-
tween the double-yellow lines
along the route adds a nice
touch to the parade, some-
thing Gadomski takes pride
in.
He makes sure its done
right, right down to the tint.
Actually I have it made
special, he said. The traf-
c paint is called Shamrock
Green.
Residents who choose to stay
will not be charged for the pe-
riod between March 13 and
March 31. During the initial 18
months, rent and basic utilities
were provided free of charge,
but occupants will now be
billed.
Rent for the units will be
based on the fair-market rent
established by the U.S. Depart-
ment of Housing and Urban De-
velopment, which for Luzerne
County is currently $501 for an
efciency apartment, $597 for
a one-bedroom unit, $743 for
a two-bedroom unit, $943 for a
three-bedroom unit and $1,059
for a four-bedroom unit.
Appeals possible
Herrick said rental amounts
could be reduced based upon
the post-disaster income of ap-
plicants if they appeal for a re-
duction. No additional nancial
assistance will be available to
the displaced residents.
Herrick said that although
FEMA housing advisers will
continue to be available to work
with disaster victims through
the six-month extension, occu-
pants of the trailers are respon-
sible for developing their own
plans for permanent housing.
He noted the housing program
is temporary and intended to
serve as a bridge until other
housing can be secured.
The six-month extension
is not by itself a solution, but
it will allow additional time
for the community to develop
housing options, and give resi-
dents an additional six months
to complete their housing so-
lution, he wrote in an email.
FEMAwill continue to explore
other potential avenues of as-
sistance in addition to working
with Voluntary Organizations.
But some residents still living
in trailers in Luzerne County
said they wish the government
could have done more.
Jim Schock of West Pittston
said he suffered a minor heart
attack the day of the ood.
Also suffering from four oth-
er medical conditions includ-
ing emphysema and diabetes,
his ailments prevent him from
working. He receives only $800
to $900 a month in Social Secu-
rity payments.
Despite that, Schock said
FEMA only helped him nd
apartments with rents as high
as his income, and that were of-
ten far from his former Pittston
address and his health care
providers. He also alleged that
starting late last year, FEMA
workers have been coming to
his mobile home at the East
Mountain Ridge Mobile Home
Park more often than the once
monthly visit stipulated in his
housing agreement.
(FEMA) was like an an-
gel in the beginning, Schock
said. And then they turned
into a devil. What got me
so bad was every single thing
they asked me to do, I did, and
theyre still hassling me. Their
whole thing was just to get me
out.
Schock said he has found an
apartment with more afford-
able rent on his own, and that
he would be moving by the end
of the month, but said his expe-
rience with FEMA has left him
bitter and broken.
Im tired, Im sick and Im
just at that point where Im just
like, do what you want, I give
up, Schock said. And thats
not what I want to do.
Rent, damage bill
Duane Pellam of Plymouth
Township said he has already
been evicted from the trailer
he shares with his ancee and
daughter. He showed a bill for
$1,079 for rent and damages for
the month of January to prove
it.
Pellam said he was evicted
for refusing to allow FEMA
workers to enter his home on
Allen Street in the West Nan-
ticoke section of Plymouth
Township.
Recipients of FEMA aid
must demonstrate that they are
making progress toward nd-
ing permanent housing once a
month. For homeowners plan-
ning to return to their homes,
that means they must show the
progress in repairing their dam-
aged property.
Pellam said his house was
robbed of about $30,000 in
tools and supplies and he re-
fused to allow FEMA entry be-
cause he was waiting for state
police to take ngerprints in-
side the home.
State police at Wyoming said
they could not conrm Pel-
lams story because they do not
release information about the
victims of crimes, but they said
there were multiple robberies
in the area of Pellams home on
Allen Street around the time
Pellam reported.
Pellam said he has not paid
the January bill, and he does
not plan to leave his FEMA mo-
bile home.
Not unless they come with
the sheriff and bodily remove
us, he said. First of all, you
cant evict someone in the mid-
dle of the winter; its against the
law.
Herrick responded that
FEMA does not speak to the
situations or specic occupants
for privacy issues, but said gen-
erally that while FEMA hous-
ing advisers check progress in
obtaining alternate housing
monthly, interim contacts may
be necessary in some cases for
a variety of reasons.
There are also times when
housing advisers will need to
deliver or obtain information
and documents from the disas-
ter survivor, he said.
Compliance required
Herrick also noted that under
the housing agreement signed
by mobile home recipients, di-
saster survivors acknowledge
that failure to comply with the
the governments conditions for
use or any decision by FEMAto
terminate the local direct hous-
ing program may result in them
being required to leave the unit
and return the units keys to
FEMA as soon as possible.
The survivor agrees to
make a diligent effort to obtain
permanent housing as soon
as possible and to establish
a permanent housing plan,
he added. They agree that, if
FEMA determines adequate
alternate housing is available,
their household will accept that
alternate housing and leave this
temporary housing unit as soon
as possible.
The housing advisor assists
the survivor by offering avail-
able rental units in their area
including available housing
obtained through PA Housing
Search and U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Develop-
ment local housing authorities.
After Tropical Storm Lee, some
local housing authorities were
prioritizing displaced disaster
survivors whose permanent
housing plan t their program
criteria.
In contrast to Luzerne
County, all Wyoming County
residents have moved out of
the temporary housing units.
Wyoming County Emergency
Manager Gene Dziak said the
last residents of the Highelds
Community Trailer Park built
by FEMA in Tunkhannock
Township had moved out last
week.
He said the park is now a
ghost town.
Theres a couple of trailers
left and thats about it, Dziak
said.
FEMA spent between $3 mil-
lion and $4 million developing
and installing utility connec-
tions on the privately owned
site, not counting the cost of
mobile homes. It elected to de-
velop the 30-acre property due
to a lack of rental housing and
space in existing mobile home
parks in Wyoming County.
Dziak applauded the agencys
work in providing housing to
residents of his county.
I think FEMA did a good
job at moving people in and
out of there and doing the right
things, Dziak said. They kept
their 18-month deal and overall
they did a good job.
As residents who have moved
out have vacated their housing
units, many units have disap-
peared from the lots in local
mobile home parks where they
formerly stood. Herrick said
they have been moved to a stag-
ing area and will, depending on
condition, be auctioned to the
general public through the Gen-
eral Service Administrations
website.
The staging area and ofces
at the former Sunshine Market
on Route 315 in Plains Town-
ship, meanwhile, remain open.
Herrick said the facility will re-
main open to demobilize trail-
ers and to provide ofce space
for housing advisers.
An exact time frame for the
operation of this facility isnt
known yet as there is still work
to be done as the community
recovers from Tropical Storm
Lee, Herrick said.

PAINTING
of their neighbors reported no
problems.
Families with bad water then
turned to federal ofcials. But
last summer the U.S. Environ-
mental Protection Agency qui-
etly sent a letter to one resident,
Janet McIntyre, saying the agen-
cy agreed with the state nd-
ing, since most of the chemicals
found in the water could have oc-
curred naturally.
McIntyre wasnt satised, not-
ing that the EPA never set foot
on my property to test the water
themselves. The EPA didnt re-
spond to a request for comment
on why the agency didnt retest
the water.
Still, the residents with water
problems were hopeful that the
Atlanta-based U.S. Agency for
Toxic Substances and Disease
Registry was looking at the is-
sue. But last month the agency
said it is not actively investigat-
ing complaints from this area.
Im just very, very frustrated,
McIntyre said.
So was John Stolz.
Hes the director of the
Duquesne University Center for
Environmental Research in Pitts-
burgh. Stolz said state and feder-
al agencies failed to do detailed
reviews, so a Duquesne team has
been monitoring water quality
and surveying households in the
Woodlands, in what is one of the
most in-depth surveys of alleged
impacts of gas drilling in the
nation. With funding from two
foundations, a teamhas regularly
tested area water for more than
a year.
Well see black water, well
see orange water, theres often
times an odor, Stolz said.
Overall, about 50 out of the
150 households in the commu-
nity have complaints. There are
certain areas that clearly dont
have any problems, Stoltz said.
And, he added, a well that has
bad water one month may be
clear the next, and a few home-
owners even say that their well
water improved after gas drilling
began.
Even in areas with no nearby
oil and gas drilling, the water
quality in some aquifers changes
naturally, groundwater experts
say.
It varies even within the same
aquifer. It can vary from the top
of the aquifer to the bottom, and
from one side to the next, said
Mike Paque, executive director
of the Oklahoma-based Ground
Water Protection Council.
The wells themselves may be
causing the problem, too. Stoltz
said the depths vary from 90 feet
to 900 feet deep, with an average
of about 130 feet. Pennsylvania
is one of the only states with no
standards for rural water well
construction, meaning multiple
other factors could be contribut-
ing to the problems.
Others say the cause could be
old coal mines or old oil and gas
wells that date back to the 1800s.
Shafts from old mines lie
under the region, said Butler
County commissioner William
L. McCarrier, who worked as
a water well driller in the area
during the 1970s. Those can ll
with water, and that water then
gets contaminated. He said pol-
lution from old mines and wells
was a common problem long be-
fore the recent gas drilling boom,
which began about ve years
ago, adding that the situation
is more complicated than many
outsiders realize.
Its very unclear where the
problem came from, McCarrier
said. He said he accepts the state
nding that drilling didnt cause
the problem, but that authorities
are still trying to nd solution for
the people who say their water is
undrinkable.
That has put local ofcials in
the middle of a ght.
The Woodlands is an unincor-
porated area that was laid out
with no rights of way for public
water or sewer lines, and even
the idea of extending a public
water line to the area has created
divisions. Some people who live
within a quarter mile of McIntyre
say they have no water problems
whatsoever, and they dont want
to pay for improvements they
dont see a need for.
McIntyre said a water compa-
ny is willing to bring a feed line
to the edge of the community
and put a pump house in. But the
Woodlands residents would still
need to form an association to
manage and pay for water lines
and hookups.
Residents met in January with
lawyers to discuss ling lawsuits.
But one expert said any claim
would be complicated by the
variations in water quality and
the lack of a contamination nd-
ing from state or federal agen-
cies.
Its a tremendously difcult
case, said Emily A. Collins, a
professor and supervising attor-
ney with the University of Pitts-
burgh Environmental Law Clin-
ic. Collins said that even if there
is a lawsuit, plaintiffs might nd
it difcult to get their expert
opinion into evidence, since the
science isnt clear.

Most FEMA trailers brought to the area have been moved and

TRAILERS
The Spirit of Northeast PA is revving
up its engine again.
And this time, its bringing along a
new friend.
After nearly 20 years of inactivity, the
last Wyoming Valley car that crossed the
country as part of the Interstate Batter-
ies Great American Race in 1994 will be
back on a new trail Saturday as part of
the City of Wilkes-Barres 33rd annual
St. Patricks Day Parade.
After the (1994) race was over, we
took it out of the trailer, pulled it onto
our property in Sweet Valley and it sat
there until last September, said Valley
Chevrolet owner Ken Wallace, also the
cars owner and driver in that 1994 Great
American Race.
Now its going to make its debut in
the St. Patricks Day Parade.
Thats tting, since the Spirit of North-
east PA is an Irish green-colored 1940
Chevrolet Special Deluxe convertible.
We thought it was a great idea, Wal-
lace said, and when we talked to the pa-
rade organizers about it, they thought it
was a great idea.
Wallace wont be driving it this time.
He has a previous engagement in Flor-
ida that will run all week, leaving the
Spirits cockpit for the parade to his Val-
ley Chevrolet manager Bernie Rinko and
the passengers seats to Rinkos children,
9-year-old Tyler and 6-year-old Brianna.
If I was here, Id drive it, Wallace
said before leaving town.
While the Spirit may spark the pa-
rade with a blast from the past, itll be
followed with a sleek machine from the
present. Right behind the Spirits in the
Wilkes-Barre procession will be a 2013
The spotlight over the weekend was on
eight Wyoming Valley Conference wrestlers
advancing to the PIAA Championships, and
deservedly so.
But their coaches also deserve credit and
four of those coaches hit milestones of their
own over the weekend.
Wyoming Areas Steve Mytych, Wyoming
Valley Wests Drew Feldman and Crest-
woods J.J. Konigus all dressed their rst
state medalist in Andy Schutz (Wyoming
Area, seventh), Kyle Krasavage (WVW,
fourth) and Matt Hammerstone (Crest-
wood, eighth). GAR coach Rick Simon ad-
vanced a wrestler to the state tournament
for the rst time with A.J. Luton.
Its a great feeling. Top eight in the state
of PA. The kid wrestled great and I nally
got my rst medal, said Konigus, who ad-
vanced wrestlers to the state event in all
three of his seasons with the Comets and
now has a medalist.
The four mentors are also part of a recent
youth movement among WVC coaches.
They condition with wrestlers periodically
and some may even partake in practice at
times.
Its more of the college atmosphere. All
the assistant coaches in college are drilling
with their kids and tweaking them and try-
ing to guide them in the right direction,
Mytych said. High school is usually not like
that. The coaches wear their suits and dont
like to get their hands on.
But the new realm of coaches coming
back through are young guys like myself,
just graduated from college and were still
hands on and still have that competitiveness
in us so its really just the new young guys
getting in the mix.
Mytych and Feldman are just a few years
removed from college, while Simon gradu-
ated from GAR in the 2000s. Konigus wres-
tled in the late 1980s and early 90s at Lake-
ROME Vatican-sponsored soccer
league matches went ahead as sched-
uled this weekend on a hill overlooking
St. Peters Basilica. For the 16 teams of
seminaries, missionaries and oratories,
however, the pre- and postgame talk
veered from purely sports and spiritual
topics to the coming conclave to elect
a new pope.
The conclave directly affected the
tournament, with the coach of a Brazil-
ian team absent because he was chosen
to drive two cardinals to Assisi on Sun-
day one of the nal days of respite
before the cardinals enter the conclave
Tuesday.
It didnt go so well today, Aldemir
Francisco Belaver, the captain of the
Collegio Pio Brasiliano seminary said
after a 4-1 loss to Redemptoris Ma-
ter, a team featuring seminarians and
priests with the Mater Neocatechume-
nal movement. It wasnt easy without
our coach.
Redemptoris fans which consisted
exclusively of priests and seminarians
clad in black had no pity, though.
They banged on drums and chanted
Re-demp-toris Mat-ER to the beat of
We Will Rock You.
According to the Brazilian tradition
of only using rst names for soccer
players, the Brazilian captain goes by
simply Belaver when he plays. And
in keeping with the soccer rivalry be-
tween Brazil and Argentina, he had
only one request for the papal election.
No Argentines! he said.
Geraldo Maia, a Brazilian priest with
Collegio Pio watching from the stands,
was more democratic.
Were hoping for a Brazilian win-
ner, or at the very least someone from
North or South America, he said. For-
za Brazil in football and in the papacy!
The matches are held at St. Peters

MANCHESTER, N.H. The
Force was with goaltender Jeff
Zatkoff and the Wilkes-Barre/
Scranton Penguins in a 5-4
shootout win in front of 9,105
fans at Verizon Wireless Arena
on Sunday.
The Penguins trailed 3-0 be-

Barre/Scran-

to 32-25-1-2 and took four out of
six points on its New England
road trip weekend. Riley Hol-
zapfel and Trevor Smith scored
in the shootout, and Zatkoff
stopped all four Manchester
shooters and made 24 saves
overall to improve to 3-0 against
the team he played with for the
previous three seasons.
The scouting report must
have been ve-hole because I
think three or four went ve-
hole, goalie Zatkoff said of the

Camaro from Wallaces Valley Chev-
rolet lot, driven by Wallaces daugher
Katrina and her boyfriend Zach Berg-
er, a Dallas resident and Penn State
student. Both vehicles will be tagged
with emblems of The Times Leader
-- one of the primary sponsors of the
Spirits 1994 Great American Race
run.
We hadnt even washed it for 19
years, Wallace said of his old Chevy.
The car probably deserved a long
rest.
It got cranky in California with
transmission trouble that turned out
to be a stripped second gear. It was
left listless by a faulty lifter in Utah.
And it was whipped off the back of a
hauler by a Wyoming wind shear.
Somehow, the Spirit of Northeast
PA endured a mystical, 4,250-mile
journey that started from a pier in
Huntington Beach, Calif., and n-
ished by crossing the Market Street
Bridge in front of 30,000 people in
Wilkes-Barres Kirby Park.
When you look back, that was
such a good thing, Wallace said, not
only for us, but for the city of Wilkes-
Barre.
The journey was a romantic travel
through yesteryear, taking people
across the country back to a wistful
era when cars that are now antiques
conjured up memories of Americas
simpler times. Wallaces 1940 Chevy
-- purchased for $22,000 specically
to run in the event -- was one of the
newest models in that years Great
Race that featured cars from as far
back as the turn of the 20th century.
The yearly race was actually a road
rally, as cars attempted to make it
fromtown to town by matching a pre-
determined time the journey should
take, with stop signs, signals and vari-
ous speed changes factored in. Wal-
lace and his navigator Mickey Cohen
recorded perfect times on two of the
nearly 40 stages that comprised the
trek.
I think the biggest memory for me
was probably the last memory, Wal-
lace said, when we were all staged to
come over the Market Street Bridge
with my wife and my daughter there.
He has other moments forever
etched in his mind from that two-
week journey.
Such as the stop in Albert Lea,
Minn., during the citys annual Ed-
die Cochran weekend that honored
the late singer and the towns favored
son; the farmer who toppled off his
chair with excitment over seeing the
Great Race cars pass by in South Da-
kota; and Conneaut High School girls
donning dresses fromthe roaring 20s
to greet Great Racers in Ohio.
We came from California. Every
place we pulled into, it was a pretty
big deal, Wallace said of the Great
Race. I remember pulling into Eddie
Cochrans hometown, they had his
songs playing, they had the girls on
roller skates dressed up like barhops,
they had the streets blocked off for
us. I liked all of that.
It all began with Wallace and his
co-pilot Cohen -- a veteran navigator
in three previous Great Race journeys
with Swoyersvilles Durland Edwards
-- watching a movie called Iron Will
on their ight out to California. And
once they started running, the jour-
ney turned the pair -- along with their
mechanical crew of Joe Anusiewicz,
Kens brother Frank Wallace, Eric
Lippi and Dave Daris -- into men of
steel.
The reworks began early for them,
as a pre-race tour of the USS Kitty
Hawk in Coronado, Calif., ended with
curious onlookers and sporadic road
blocks lining Californias I-5 on their
trip back to their Huntington Beach
hotel.
We had the ship thing, we left
there, we were coming back, Wal-
lace said, and we see all these peo-
ple on the overpass. And were going,
This is really great. This wasnt even
part of the race route, and all these
people are on this route. How did
they know?
We found out later that O.J. Simp-
son was coming behind us.
Yep, the Great Racers made their
return from one of the nations most
famous battleships on one of the na-
tions most infamous nights -- on the
same road and just ahead of Simp-
sons slow-speed Ford Bronco chase
in the aftermath of his wife Nicole
Brown Simpsons murder.
The few days afterward turned out
to be a near-killer for the car.
The Spirit suffered transmission
damage, a lifter in the motor that
mushroomed, and then body damage
and a broken kingpin when a wind
shear blew through as the car as it
was being transported from the com-
petition on the back of a hauler.
I remember we had the transmis-
sion problem the one night, and we
had no parts, Wallace laughed. My
brother and Joe Anusiewicz took the
(support) van and they came back
with parts. Nobody was open that
time of night. But I remember we
didnt have to pay for the parts and
they never told me where they got
the parts.
Who knows where they got them
from.
But the Spirit kept rolling, picking
up perfect scores on two different
legs, taking fourth place during one
full dayss stage and nishing eighth
overall in the races Buick Sportsman
Division. And with each passing day,
Wallace felt area interest in the cars
trek kept increasing, thanks in large
part to Valley Chevrolet marketing
director Barbara Ross.
She was a big part of the success
of the whole thing, Wallace said.
The association with Valley Chev-
rolet and the newspaper was a big
thing. To call home when youre out
in South Dakota and hear that the
cars out on the front page, and know
there are stories about it people
couldnt wait to read the paper every
day to nd out how we did.
I really think the community was
into it in 1994.
He believes the area will get into
it again, taking a ride down memory
lane during Saturdays parade route.
People are going to remember
that, Wallace predicted. When you
look back on it, it was a great two or
three weeks of my life.

Lehman.
No shame in that
The ve WVC seniors who ended
their seasons in Hershey were down
for some time during the tournament
once they realized they wouldnt claim
a state title. But there should be no
lack of pride for any of the eight quali-
ers fromthe conference because they
lost to quality opponents.
Coughlins Brad Emerick was hit
with three losses this season, but all
came against the top three placewin-
ners in the state. Krasavages two
losses were at the hands of the state
champion and the third-place medal-
ist. Schutz loss in the opening round
along with Hammerstones and Lake-
Lehmans Austin Harrys setback in
the quarters each came to the state
runner-up in their brackets. Lutons
two tournament losses came to the
eventual state champion and sixth-
place medalist.
Nick Heck, another Wyoming Area
standout, was hit with losses at states
at the hands of the third and sixth-
place medalists. Wyoming Valley
Wests Travis Roper lost bouts with
the fth and seventh-place medalists.

With ve of this years eight WVC
state qualiers being seniors, its likely
most of next seasons state qualiers
from the conference will be newcom-
ers to the event.

Hazleton Area sophomore Larry Ro-
manchik, who placed fourth at the 3A

shootout saves. Theres always
a little extra motivation, a little
extra focus when you come in
to play these kind of games with
something to prove.
After seeing a 3-0 lead evapo-
rate into a one-goal game late in
the second period, Manchester
(28-24-3-4) came out strong to
open the third. Andy Andreoff
gave the Monarchs a 4-2 lead with
a goal at 5:28, cutting across the
top of the crease and backhand-
ing the puck past a diving Zatkoff.
Zach Sill gave the Penguins
some life with a goal at 10:03. Sill
drove the net and put a shot on
that Martin Jones stopped with
his pads, but the puck trickled
through and Sill followed it, dart-
ing around Jones and into the
crease to help the puck the last
few inches into the net.
Dylan Reese completed the
comeback for the Penguins at the
15:50 mark of the third. Kolarik
sent Reese ahead with a pass into
the slot and Reese roofed a shot
past Jones glove.
The teams skated a scoreless
overtime to set the stage for the
shootout and eventual WBS win.
All in all, I thought it was
about the character and leader-
ship of our players, Penguins
head coach John Hynes said. At
2-0 it wasnt looking too good.
They were really dominating and
in control. The fact that we were
able to get it to 3-2, that was the
difference. That was the momen-
tum-changer because it gave you
a little life.
Manchester took a 3-0 lead
with a shorthanded goal at 7:21
of the second period on a Robbie
Czarnik wraparound inside the
right post.
The Penguins came back with
two quick goals to make it a 3-2
game. Holzapfels shot from the
left circle was deected down and
under Jones by Kolarik at 16:11.
Just 28 seconds later it was 3-2
after Sill pushed the puck into
the cage during a goal-mouth
scramble.

STATE COLLEGE Penn State
coach Patrick Chambers walked right
past the Wisconsin locker room with
a solemn look before answering ques-
tions in a methodical voice.
The 22nd-ranked Badgers had just
beaten his team 63-60 on a buzzer-
beating 3-pointer by Traevon Jackson
a tough nish that had the normally
bubbly Chambers feeling down for his
players.
We earned the right to win this one.
Thats why this one hurts, Chambers
said. To lose on that type of (ending)
you feel for them.
Jermaine Marshall scored 23 points
for Penn State (10-20, 2-16 Big Ten)
and D.J. Newbill added 22, including a
jumper from the elbow with 5 seconds
left to tie the game at 60.
But Jackson made a contested 3
at the buzzer to nish with 15 points
and Wisconsin survived an upset scare
in the regular-season nale for both
teams.
The Badgers (21-10, 12-6) went
the length of the court with less than
4 seconds left. Jackson pulled up on
the wing and made his 3 over the out-
stretched arm of Kevin Montminy.
Ofcials upheld the basket after a
replay review, and anxious fans at the
Jordan Center let out a collective sigh
of disappointment.
Give Jackson credit. Tough shot,
Chambers said. I thought Kevin did a
good job contesting.
Wisconsin nearly threwthe ball away
on the inbounds play but managed to
hold on in the scrape on the oor as the
ofcials called a tie-up.
Jacksons clutch shot then had the
Badgers pumping their arms in victory.
It felt good. When the shot comes
off your hand like that I just kind of
knew it was going to go in, Jackson
said.
They might be last in the Big Ten,
but the Nittany Lions challenged Wis-
consin. They are 2-2 since starting 0-14
in conference, and the tough play ex-
tended into the regular-season nale at
an energized Jordan Center.
No. 2 Indiana 72,
No. 7 Michigan 71
ANN ARBOR, Mich. Cody Zeller
made a go-ahead layup with 13 seconds
left and altered Trey Burkes shot at the
other end, lifting No. 2 Indiana to a vic-
tory over No. 7 Michigan that gave the
Hoosiers their rst outright Big Ten
title in two decades.
The Hoosiers (26-5, 14-4) trailed by
ve points in the nal minute but took
advantage when the Wolverines (25-
6, 12-6) were unable to seal it at the
foul line. Jordan Morgan had a fairly
easy tip-in attempt of Burkes miss that
could have won it for Michigan, but
the ball rolled off the rim and Indiana
grabbed the rebound with 4 seconds
left.
A couple of Michigans rivals surely
wish the Wolverines had won.
No. 10 Michigan State 71,
Northwestern 61
EAST LANSING, Mich. Keith Ap-
pling scored 16 points and Gary Harris
added 12 to lift Michigan State over
Northwestern.
The Spartans (24-7, 13-5) were elimi-
nated from Big Ten title contention
early in their game when Indiana beat
Michigan, and Michigan State strug-
gled to put away the undermanned
Wildcats. Northwestern (13-18, 4-14)
rallied from a 13-point rst-half decit,
tying the game at 51 before the Spar-
tans recovered.
Kale Abrahamson scored 16 points
for Northwestern, which has lost eight
straight.
Michigan State senior Derrick Nix
scored 10 points in his nal home
game. The Spartans shot 66 percent
from the eld and 6 of 10 from 3-point
range.
No. 14 Ohio State 68,
Illinois 55
COLUMBUS, Ohio Deshaun
Thomas, playing perhaps his nal
home game for Ohio State, scored 19
points in a victory over Illinois.
Ohio State (23-7, 13-5) is the No. 2
seed for next weeks Big Ten tourna-
ment. Aaron Craft added 14 points
and six assists while creating his usual
havoc on defense for the Buckeyes.
Lenzelle Smith Jr. had 10 points.
Brandon Paul scored 21 points for Il-
linois (21-11, 8-10), which will be the
No. 8 seed in Chicago.
Temple 84, No. 21 VCU 76
PHILADELPHIA Khalif Wyatt
scored 30 points, Jake OBrien had 19
and Temple beat Virginia Common-
wealth after rallying from a 16-point
decit.
The Owls (23-8, 11-5 Atlantic 10)
clinched the No. 3 seed in the confer-
ence tournament and earned a rst-
round bye. Temple and VCU will both
open play at the Barclays Center on
Friday.
PHILADELPHIA Claude
Giroux, Simon Gagne and Max
Talbot all scored to help the
Philadelphia Flyers snap a three-
game losing streak by beating
the Buffalo Sabres 3-2 on Sun-
day.
Ilya Bryzgalov stopped 18
shots for the Flyers (12-14-1),
who are still on the outside of
the Eastern Conference play-
off race. They are ahead of the
Sabres, who are buried in last
place in the Northeast Division
and have lost four straight.
Brian Flynn and Jochen Hecht
scored for Buffalo.
With both teams struggling,
tempers were short. Buffalos
Mike Weber slugged it out with
Wayne Simmonds, and Sabres
center Steve Ott threw a punch
at Kimmo Timonen.
Penguins 6, Islanders 1
PITTSBURGH Sidney
Crosby tied a career high with
ve assists, and Chris Kunitz
posted his second hat trick of
the season in Pittsburghs rout
of the New York Islanders.
Crosbys big night boosted his
point total to an NHL-leading
45 and helped the Penguins win
their fth straight. James Neal
had a goal and three assists,
and Pascal Dupuis scored twice
for Pittsburgh. Tomas Vokoun
made 23 saves.
Brad Boyes scored the lone
goal for New York, which had a
ve-game point streak snapped.
Evgeni Nabokov stopped just 12
of 17 shots in two periods before
getting pulled for the nal 20
minutes.
Rangers 4, Capitals 1
WASHINGTON About
three hours after asking for
more respect from NHL of-
cials, Alex Ovechkin was called
for two penalties within sec-
onds, leading to a pair of goals
that put the New York Rangers
ahead for good.
Brian Boyle scored his rst
goal of the season one game af-
ter being a healthy scratch, and
Ryan Callahan also took advan-
tage of Ovechkins miscues to
give NewYork a two-goal lead in
the second period. Derek Stepan
and Brad Richards also scored,
and Martin Biron made 28 saves
for the Rangers, who have won
ve of six.
Steve Oleksy scored his rst
NHL goal for the Capitals.
Oilers 6, Blackhawks 5
CHICAGO Sam Gagner

Blackhawks to their second con-
secutive loss after their record-
breaking start.

for the Devils, who won for only
the second time in nine games.

with 14:40 left in the third pe-
riod before adding an empty-

Pontical Oratory on a eld
named for former American
Cardinal Francis Spellman.
The season runs from Feb-
ruary to May and the winner
takes home the Saturno tro-
phy, consisting of an old-fash-
ioned priests hat with a wide,
circular brim like the planet
Saturns rings on top of a
soccer ball and a pair of black
spikes.
Retired Pope Benedict XVI
was once presented a copy of
the Saturno trophy, as was Car-
dinal Tarcisio Bertone, the ca-
merlengo, or chamberlain, pre-
siding over the Holy See during
these days with no pope.
Bertone, a big football fan
and supporter of the Clericus
Cup when it began seven years
ago, is said to keep the trophy
in his ofce. While not ofcial-
ly labeled the Vatican league,
the Clericus Cup is supported
by the Pontical Council for
the Laity and the Pontical
Council for Culture.
It may not be ofcial but its
known as the Vatican World
Cup, league communications
chief Felice Alborghetti said.
Only three different teams
have been crowned champion
in the rst seven editions, with
last seasons honors going to
the North American Martyrs.
This year all 16 teams are
papabile because the league
is very balanced, Alborghetti
said, using the Italian word for
papal candidates.
The matches last one hour
and rules differ slightly from
those of professional club soc-
cer. Teams are allowed one
time out and, besides the tradi-
tional yellow and red card, the
referee brandishes a blue card,
which gives errant players a
5-minute suspension.
But referee Zazza Fiorenzo,
a layman, has rarely seen un-
sportsmanlike play.
Here were all protected,
Fiorenzo said, with a nod in di-
rection of the Vatican grounds.
Last weekends matches
were canceled out of respect
for Benedicts resignation, but
league ofcials insist games
will go ahead next weekend
even if a pope is elected in the
coming days.
In the meantime, each team
is looking for that extra bit of
tactics that might lead to a mi-
raculous title.
Collegio Spagnolo, a new
team of Spanish seminarians,
recently received a video mes-
sage from Vicente del Bosque,
coach of the Spanish national
team the reigning World
Cup and European champions.
Anthony Naah, a deacon
from Ghana and the 28-year-
old captain for the Sedes Sa-
pientiae seminary team based
in the Roman neighborhood
of Trastevere, was hoping for
a spiritual boost if cardinal and
countryman Peter Turkson,
viewed by many as the top
African contender for pope, is
elected.
Its not impossible, Naah
said. Theres a lot of talk about
him. We saw him two weeks
ago when we celebrated mass
together. It would really be
something great for our faith.

Woods wins another WGC title at Doral
Kenseth
holds on
in Vegas
Griner powers top-ranked
Baylor to Big 12 nal
By DOUG FERGUSON
AP Golf Writer
DORAL, Fla. That red
shirt is starting to look ruthless
on Sunday again.
One year after Tiger Woods
hobbled off the Blue Monster,
he picked up the pace in his
march to the Masters. Woods
delivered two quick birdies to
take the drama out of Doral, and
two late bogeys only made his
victory in the Cadillac Champi-
onship seemcloser than it really
was.
Woods had full control of his
game and never let anyone get
closer than three shots until he
had locked up his 17th World
Golf Championship title. With
a conservative bogey that didnt
matter on the nal hole, he
closed with a 1-under 71.
For the rst time in ve years,
Woods has two wins before the
Masters.
And both of them were domi-
nant.
Thats how I know I can
play, Woods said. Thats the
thing. To be able to bring it out
a couple times so far this year
and then be able to close
and get the Ws on top of that
thats nice. Any time I can win
prior to Augusta, it always feels
good.
And to think it was one year
ago Sunday that Woods with-
drew after 11 holes in the nal
round at Doral because of tight-
ness in his left Achilles tendon,
the same injury that had cost
him to sit out most of the pre-
vious summer. It created un-
certainty about his health and
whether he could ever get his
game back.
False alarm.
Woods now has ve wins in
the last year, the most of anyone
in the world, and he can return
to No. 1 with a win at Bay Hill in
two weeks.
He won by two shots over
Steve Stricker, who might want
to claim a share of this trophy.
Woods ran into Stricker on
the putting green Wednesday af-
ternoon, and in a 45-minute ses-
sion, Stricker helped him with
his posture over putts. Woods
left feeling as good as he did
at Torrey Pines, where he won
by four shots. And it showed.
Woods made 27 birdies this
week, one short of his personal
best on the PGA Tour, and he
took the fewest putts (100) over
72 holes in any tour event.
Thank you to Steve for the
putting lesson, Woods said at
the trophy presentation. It was
one of those weeks where I felt
pretty good about how I was
playing, made a few putts and
got it rolling.
Stricker, playing a part-time
schedule, picked up his second
runner-up nish in just three
starts. He closed with a 68, and
had no regrets about offering
Woods some help.
At times you kick yourself,
Stricker said with a laugh. Hes
a good friend. We talk a lot
about putting. Its good to see
him playing well.
The Masters is a month away,
and Woods is sure to be the fa-
vorite.
Majors and World Golf
Championships are the best be-
cause you know you are playing
against the best players, Woods
said. Thats what makes wins
like this special. Thats why I
love to compete.
Rory McIlroy, the No. 1 player
in the world, showed signs of re-
covering from his rough start to
the season. He had a 65 and tied
for eighth.
Graeme McDowell, who
started the nal round four
shots behind, made a birdie on
the opening hole, but never got
any closer. McDowell had third
place to himself until he went
for the green on the 18th hole
and found the water. He made
double bogey, shot 72 and fell
into a four-way tie for third that
cost him $172,500.
Phil Mickelson (71), Sergio
Garcia (69) and Adam Scott
(64) also tied for third.
LAS VEGAS Matt Kenseth
decided not to replace any tires
during the nal pit stop under
caution, and the calculated risk
put him in the lead.
Kenseth knows a bit about
risk after his offseason move
to Joe Gibbs Racing, and this
latest gamble paid off with his
third victory in Vegas.
Kenseth won on his 41st
birthday in just his third start
for his new team, barely holding
off Kasey Kahne at Las Vegas
Motor Speedway for his 25th
career victory Sunday.
I was real nervous all day,
Kenseth said. (Kahne) had
the best car. I told (crew chief)
Jason (Ratcliff) with about 12
to go that I was sorry we were
going to lose. We were just too
tight. We didnt have the
fastest car there, but we had it
where we needed it to be.
Kenseth took charge by tak-
ing only fuel on the nal pit stop
during caution while almost ev-
erybody else replaced two tires.
He took the lead and held onto
it, using his veteran savvy
and a few screamed instructions
at his new spotter to keep
Kahnes impressive Chevrolet
behind him to the nish.
The frequently laid-back
Kenseth celebrated with uncom-
mon vigor after his JGR Toyota
crossed the line. Hes still get-
ting comfortable with his new
teammates after leaving Roush
Fenway Racing in the highest-
prole driver move of the off-
season, joining Gibbs after 13
seasons with RFR.
Im not a huge goal person,
but my goal was to win, and
to win early, Kenseth said.
Nobody has put any pressure
on me except for myself, but I
also know that Coach hired me
to come in there, climb in that
car and win races. You certainly
want to do that, and you dont
want to disappoint people. Im
glad we got a win, but its still
only Week 3. I feel like this is the
beginning.
Pole-sitter Brad Keselowski
nished third, with Kenseths
teammate, Kyle Busch, in fourth
and Carl Edwards fth. Jim-
mie Johnson, the overall points
leader, was sixth and Dale Earn-
hardt Jr. seventh.
Defending Vegas champion
Tony Stewart nished 11th,
while Gibbs driver Denny Ham-
lin was 15th after an eventful
week featuring a $25,000 ne
from NASCAR for criticizing
the new Gen-6 race car.
The win was the 50th for Toy-
ota in Sprint Cup competition.
Kenseth is just the third NAS-
CAR driver to win on his birth-
day, joining Cale Yarborough
who did it twice and Busch.
I showed them a fake ID
when they hired me, Kenseth
said with a laugh. Told them I
was 28, going to be 29 this year.
Kenseth has won at least one
race in 11 of his 14 full seasons
in the Sprint Cup series, but the
rst 13 were all in Fords with
Roush Fenway, the team that
gave him his break in NASCAR
and fostered his development
into a likely Hall of Famer. Kens-
eths decision to leave for a seat
on Gibbs team was an open
secret for much of last season,
although the veteran star never
really explained his move.
I had a lot of condence after
our rst meeting and decided to
go do this, and just had a great
feeling about it, and still do,
Kenseth said.
Gibbs had his own worries be-
fore the race after a rough start
to the season for Toyota. Kens-
eth and Busch both had serious
engine trouble at Daytona two
weeks ago.
The 400-mile race was the
rst real test for NASCARs new
Gen-6 car on the intermediate
tracks theyre built to race. Al-
though Hamlin commanded the
weeks headlines with his pessi-
mismamplied by the NASCAR
ne, most drivers were curious
howthe Gen-6 would work in its
ideal 1.5-mile environment.
Any drivers who still think its
too tough to pass in the new car
must not have been watching
Busch, who made two lengthy
charges up to early leads, doing
it both before and after a pit-row
speeding penalty dropped him
back to 18th.
DALLAS Brittney Griner
had 30 points and 10 rebounds,
and top-ranked Baylor held off
a furious late charge by Okla-
homa State for a 77-69 victory
in the Big 12 tournament semi-
nals Sunday.
Oklahoma State trailed by
17 after Baylor guard Odyssey
Sims converted a nifty three-
point play with 15 minutes left,
but the Cowgirls (21-10) cut it
to 72-69 with 1:34 remaining
when Tiffany Bias converted a
steal into a breakaway layup.

PHOENIX Adam Jones
doubled in the tying and go-
ahead runs in the eighth in-
ning, Eric Hosmer hit a three-
run double in the ninth and
the United States beat Canada
9-4 on Sunday to advance to
the second round of the World
Baseball Classic.
Down to their last several
outs, the U.S. trailed 3-2 after
seven innings before break-
ing loose. Team USA and Italy
advanced in Group D while
Canada and Mexico were elimi-
nated.
Jones and Hosmer both had
a rough week at the plate but
came through with the United
States on the brink of what
would have been a humbling
loss. Jones hit was his second
in nine at-bats. Hosmer was 3
for 13.
Gold Glove second baseman
Brandon Phillips contributed,
too, making a diving stop to
prevent Canada from tying it in
the eighth.
Heath Bell pitched a score-
less seventh to get the victory
for manager Joe Torres team.
Jimmy Henderson took the
loss.
Canadas Michael Saunders,
of the Seattle Mariners, hit a
two-run homer off starter Der-
ek Holland and was chosen the
Group DMVP, going 8 for 11 in
the tournament.
The United States nished
group play tied with Italy at
2-1 but gets the No. 1 seed
because of its 6-2 win over It-
aly. The U.S. meets the loser of
Sundays Dominican Republic-
Puerto Rico game Tuesday in
Miami.
David Wright, whose grand
slam lifted the U.S. past Italy
Saturday night, doubled and
walked three times. Ben Zo-
brist had three hits, none of
which left the ineld.
Canada, coming off a 10-3
win over Mexico that featured
a bruising ninth-inning brawl,
nished 1-2. The Canadians
have not made it out of the
rst round for any of the three
WBCs.
But they looked in great
shape much of the afternoon
against the United States,
which was looking to avoid its
worst showing ever in the tour-
nament. The Americans made
it to the second round in 2006
and the seminals in 2009.
Japan 16, Netherlands 4
TOKYO Two-time de-
fending champion Japan hit
a record-tying six home runs
to overpower the Netherlands
and advance to the champion-
ship round of the WBC.
Hayato Sakamoto hit a grand
slam in the seventh to make it
16-4 and the game was called
under the 10-run mercy rule
when the Netherlands failed to
close the gap in the bottom of
the inning.
Takashi Toritani led off the
game with a solo homer to
right for Japans rst home run
of the tournament.
PHOENIX The violent
misdeeds of the Mexican and
Canadian baseball teams will go
unpunished.
The World Baseball Clas-
sic decided no players will be
suspended in the aftermath of
Saturdays nasty brawl between
the teams. Video of the ghting
spread across the globe, giving
the WBC a major league dose of
unwanted attention.
The organizers said Sunday
that while the mayhem runs
counter to the spirit of sports-
manship and respectful com-
petition, suspensions would
not be appropriate because one
team and possibly both will not
advance to the second round.
Canadas 10-3 victory elimi-
nated Mexico from the compe-
tition. Canada faces the United
States on Sunday, with the win-
ner advancing to the WBCs sec-
ond round.
The organizers, in a state-
ment attributed to World Base-
ball Classic Inc., said punish-
ment would be in inappropriate
because of the format of the
tournament, which is now held
every four years.
Because at least one club
and potentially both will not
advance to the second round,
WBCI has determined that dis-
ciplinary measures would not
have a meaningful corrective
impact, the statement said.
The brawl began in the ninth
inning Saturday when Canadas
Rene Tosoni was hit by a pitch
from Mexicos Arnold Leon af-
ter Canadian Chris Robinson
reached on a bunt single.
The organization said it spoke
with representatives of the Ca-
nadian and Mexican federations
Saturday night.
We are aware of the perspec-
tives held by both sides in a
competitive environment, the
WBC said. Nevertheless, we re-
layed to both teams that such an
altercation is inappropriate un-
der any circumstances and has
no place in baseball.
Canada manager Ernie Whitt
said the WBC did the right
thing.
When asked if the failure to
take further action might give
players license to such behavior
in future WBC games, he said:
I certainly hope thats not the
case. I know its not the case
with our team in there.

HOW TO CONTACT:
Dear Abby: PO Box 69440, Los Ange-
les, CA 90069
For more Sudoku go to www.timesleader.com
O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: I am a
semi-retired widow
in my 60s. A few
months ago I started
spending time with
a man I work with.
We would see each
other once or twice a
month, strictly as friends. Our dates
ended with a platonic hug.
About a month ago, a hug turned
into an embrace. A week later, the
embrace became a passionate kiss.
Since then, whenever we get together
we spend a good portion of our time
together making out. We love the
way each other kisses.
The problem is, were still just
friends. There is no desire on the part
of either of us to take the relation-
ship up a notch. What do we do? We
should not be kissing a friend the way
we do, but we cant seem to stop.
Were not hurting anyone. We have
tried meeting only in public places,
but there is still the goodnight kiss. I
never thought Id need this kind of ad-
vice at my age. Must we stop spend-
ing time together?
Flabbergasted in Wisconsin
Dear Flabbergasted: Not in my
opinion. I assume youre both eligible.
This is the way relationships develop,
and you would be foolish not to see
where it leads. A kiss is still a kiss.
Let me hear from you in a month.
Dear Abby: I am writing on behalf
of hairstylists. We are busy people.
Our time is money. We rarely even
stop for lunch. Clients who come in
talking on their cellphones are a real
problem because they slow us down.
I have had clients jump up from my
chair to answer their cellphone in the
middle of a haircut hair flying ev-
erywhere. I have had to do a haircut
AROUND a cellphone, with the client
switching the phone from ear to ear!
These are just casual conversations.
The lack of courtesy is ridiculous,
and it seems to be getting worse.
I would like people who do this to
think twice before subjecting their
stylist to it. They should put their
phones on silent, get their hair cut or
colored, and talk on their own time!
Fed Up in Nebraska
Dear Fed Up: You are not helpless.
This is happening because you have
allowed it. If you cant find the gump-
tion to tell your customers you dont
want them using their cellphones
while theyre in your chair, then post
a sign on your mirror that reads Cell-
phones Not Allowed.
Dear Abby: I am a new bride. I love
my husband very much, but Ive en-
countered a problem I dont know
how to handle. My husband and I
were together for six years before
we got married and were engaged
for three. We eloped to Las Vegas (it
wasnt planned) and had a proper
celebration with friends and family
later.
My husband makes comments that
suggest I dragged him and tricked
him into marrying me. I know hes
only kidding, but its very hurtful. I
dont know how to let him know his
comments really hurt my feelings.
Newlywed in California
Dear Newlywed: The next time your
husband does it, speak up. Explain
that his attempts at humor are hurt-
ful, not to mention insulting. Ask him
if he regrets marrying you. Communi-
cation is the key to a strong marriage,
and so is respect for ones partner,
which he appears to be lacking.
DEAR ABBY
A D V I C E
Platonic older friends sharing time together are sharing kisses as well
To receive a collection of Abbys most
memorable and most frequently re-
quested poems and essays, send a busi-
ness-sized, self-addressed envelope, plus
check or money order for $3.95 ($4.50 in
Canada) to: Dear Abbys Keepers, P.O.
Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447.
(Postage is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Many
will make assumptions based on
superficial measures. Your soul-
fulness prevents you from mak-
ing such a rookie mistake. Youll
see deeper into a situation and
gain a personal advantage.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Find a
symbol to remind you to be loyal
to the greater good that is big-
ger than yourself. Right now, the
overall picture will be clear to
you, but later you may need the
symbol to help you stay focused.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You will
be involved in a learning envi-
ronment. This may have to do
with mastering the techniques
of your craft. Interpersonal skills
will help you stay connected to
the best information.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Todays
game will be long and full of
opportunities. In abundant times
such as these, its easy to forget
that every action counts. Play
your best even when it seems
like youre already ahead.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Can you
comply easily and freely with
someone elses orders? Your
ability to do so will help you have
confidence when its your turn to
lead, which it will be very soon.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
Someone you trust has helped
you overcome problems in the
past. But right now this person is
the one who needs help, perhaps
without even knowing it.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). When
the voice of fear pipes up, dont
ignore it. There probably is some
valuable bit of protection it can
offer. The conversation will also
illuminate and dispel an untruth.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Taking
care of yourself can be a big-
ger job than you think it should
be. Youll enjoy expressing your
personal style as you focus on
the more detailed aspects of
self-care.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
The obstacles seem to be in your
path, but they are actually inside
you. You may have to try out
several ideas before you find the
one new belief that will clear the
way.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
You will fulfill the request that is
asked of you to the same degree
that you respect the person
who is asking. Its something to
consider today when the person
requesting the most from you is
you.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Dont
yield ground or deviate from
your path. Follow the map. Your
original plan will work. Review
the steps, and make sure to tend
to the nuances.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Any
choice that leads you away from
being all you can be is inherently
evil. Considering this, you may
change your schedule, the com-
pany you keep or the way you
spend your money.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (March 11).
Youre impatient for change.
Everything takes time. Relax
and let your cosmic birthday
presents keep unfolding over the
next three months. First come
the new friends. One of them
helps you get around in style in
April. Aries and Cancer people
adore you. Your lucky numbers
are: 40, 2, 14, 38 and 49.
