New tax credits that take effect in January
could help nearly 30,000 residents in Luzerne
and Columbia counties offset the cost of health
insurance premiums through the Affordable
Care Act.
A report issued by Washington, D.C.-based
Families USA, a non-partisan group that focus-
es on affordable
health care, said
new tax credits
will be open to
U.S. citizens
who make up
to four times
the federal pov-
erty level. The
poverty level in
2013 is $11,490
for an individual
and $23,550 for
a family of four,
according to the
Federal Regis-
ter.
A b o u t
896,000 resi-
dents will be
eligible when
open enroll-
ment begins in
October. The largest tax credits will be avail-
able to those with the lowest incomes based on
a sliding scale.
In Luzerne and Columbia counties, which
are grouped together in the report, more than
28,000 are eligible for tax credits. The vast ma-
jority of those eligible 89.5 percent are
employed either full- or part-time.
About 36 percent of eligible residents are be-
tween the ages of 18 and 34. White, non-Hispan-

The liens would require delin-

currently covered by school dis-

Northeast Revenue President
John Rodgers, an area attorney.
The countys portion of this fee
is waived as part of its operation-
al agreement with Northeast
Revenue.
Liens also allow properties to
be publicly auctioned at sheriff
sales in as little as six months,
as opposed to back-tax auctions
that cant be scheduled for about
two years, Rodgers said.

Drug houses seized
under Hazleton plan
HAZLETON In addition to potentially los-

raid Friday also could lose her home under a
new initiative of the Hazleton Police Depart-

After police served a search warrant at 134
Pine Tree Road and arrested the three people
inside, a city ofcial posted a dark red sign in
the front door window with the word CON-

Circus elephants step on scale in Nanticoke
to assess their health
Weigh to go, ladies
PETE G. WILCOX PHOTOS/THE TIMES LEADER
Jim McIntire, right, coaxes his granddaughter, Abby Konkus, 2, of Forty Fort, into giving elephant
Viola a carrot during Fridays weigh-in in Nanticoke.
NANTICOKE You might
think Viola, Kelley and Nina have
a weight problem. After all, they
do weigh 10,360, 8,940 and 5,900
pounds, respectively.
But for these three circus
elephants, watching their weight
is just a lot of hay some 350
pounds of it per day.
The three elephants, trained
and cared for by Chip and Dallas
Arthurs of Decatur, Ala., will
perform in next weeks 64th
Irem Shrine Circus at the 109th
Field Artillery Armory on Market
Street.
On Friday the three female
elephants were brought to J.P.
Mascaro & Sons in Nanticoke to
be weighed. Chip Arthurs likes
to keep track of their weights to
assess their health, he said.
Those numbers are about
what I expected, Arthurs said
following the weigh-in. Ive had
them for more than 30 years, and
they are all good girls.
Viola is 42 years old, Kelley is
43 and Nina is 51. The average
life expectancy of an elephant is
about 70 years.
Chip Arthurs weighed his elephants on a truck scale at J.P. Mascaro
& Sons in Nanticoke on Friday to assure they are healthy. The ani-
mals will perform at next weeks Irem Shrine Circus in Wilkes-Barre.

VATICAN CITY Pope Francis
has won over many hearts and minds
with his simple style and focus on
serving the worlds poorest, but he
has devastated traditionalist Catho-
lics who adored his predecessor,
Benedict XVI, for restoring much of
the traditional pomp to the papacy.
Francis decision to disregard church
law and wash the feet of two girls a
Serbian Muslim and an Italian Catholic
during a Holy Thursday ritual has
become something of the nal straw,
evidence that Francis has little or no
interest in one of the key priorities of
Benedicts papacy: reviving the pre-Vati-
can II traditions of the Catholic Church.
One of the most-read traditionalist
blogs, Rorate Caeli, reacted to the
foot-washing ceremony by declaring
the death of Benedicts eight-year

HEALTH CARE
SAN FRANCISCO Its
back.
The virtual reality headset,
the gizmo that was supposed
to seamlessly transport wear-
ers to three-dimensional virtu-
al worlds, has made a remark-
able return at this years Game
Developers Conference, an an-
nual gathering of video game
makers in San Francisco.
After drumming up hype
over the past year and banking
$2.4 million from crowdfund-
ing, the Irvine, Calif.-based
company Oculus VR captured
the conferences attention this
week with the Oculus Rift, its
VR headset thats more like a
pair of ski goggles than those
bulky gaming helmets of the
1990s that usually left users
with headaches.
Developers who start
working on VR games now
are going to be able to do
cool things, said Oculus VR
founder Palmer Luckey. This
is the rst time when the tech-
nology, software, community
and rendering power is all re-
ally there.
While VR technology has
successfully been employed in
recent years for military and
medical training purposes, its
been too expensive, clunky
or just plain bad for most at-
home gamers. Oculus VRs
headset is armed with stereo-
scopic 3-D, low-latency head
tracking and a 110-degree
eld of view, and the company
expects it to cost only a few
hundred bucks.
A line at the conference
snaked around the expo oor
with attendees waiting for a
chance to plop the glasses on
their head and play a few min-
utes of Hawken, an upcom-
ing rst-person shooter that
puts players inside levitating
war machines.
Attendance was also at ca-
pacity for a Thursday talk
called Virtual Reality: The
Holy Grail of Gaming led by
Luckey. When he asked the
crowd whod ordered develop-
ment prototypes of the tech-
nology, dozens of hands shot
into the air.
Theres been a lot of prom-
ise over several decades with
the VRhelmet idea, but I think
a lot of us feel like Oculus and
other devices like it are start-
ing to get it right, said Si-
mon Carless, executive vice
president at UBM Tech Game
Network, which organizes the
Game Developers Conference.
We may have a competitive
and interesting-to-use device,
which you could strap to your
head and have really immer-
sive gaming as a result.
Sony Corp. and Microsoft
Corp. are reportedly work-
ing on similar peripherals, as
are other companies. Luckey
contends that the innovations
Nintendo Co. made with its
Wii U, Sony is planning with
its upcoming PlayStation 4,
and Microsoft is likely tinker-
ing with for its successor to
the Xbox 360 dont seem like
enough.
Were seeing better graph-
ics and social networks, but
those arent things that are go-
ing to fundamentally change
the kind of experiences that
gamers can have, said Luck-
ey.
A growing list of high-pro-
le game makers have sung
the devices praises.
PHILADELPHIA A recov-
ering drug addict with a long
rap sheet was hailed as a hero
for jumping onto subway tracks
to rescue a man who walked off
a platform.
Christopher Knafelc, 32, was
waiting for a train in north Phil-
adelphia on Thursday afternoon
when he saw a man fall on the
tracks. He jumped down to help,
knowing that a train would be
arriving in a few minutes.
I had a plan: If a train came,
I was going to roll him under-
neath, Knafelc told WPVI-TV,
or if I couldnt, I was going to
ask someone to jump down and
help me roll him.
He held the mans head and
neck stable until reghters ar-
rived. Train trafc was halted.
Knafelc told the Philadelphia
Daily News he has battled sub-
stance abuse since he was in
middle school in Baden, a small
town outside Pittsburgh, and
spent years in and out of rehab.
Southeastern Pennsylva-
nia Transportation Author-
ity spokeswoman Jerri Williams
said she spoke with Knafelc
soon after his heroics.
Hes clean and sober for
about 2 1/2 years but still try-
ing to get his life together, she
said. I think by doing this good
Samaritan deed hes kind of sur-
prised himself.
She saw that as Knafelc re-
counted the incident on the
tracks, I could see the light go
off, the a-ha moment when he
realized that after he was helped
by many people in his past, he
was able to nally help someone
else in return.
This almost instinctive move
to save this guy made him see
I am a good person, Williams
said. Its amazing. This inci-
dent may be the start of really
good things for him.
Online court records show
Knafelc pleaded guilty in 2010
in Pennsylvania to charges of
theft, driving under the inu-
ence, child endangerment and
driving without a license.
He came to Philadelphia,
where his mother and a cousin
live, two years ago to get a fresh
start, he said. A telephone mes-
sage left at what was believed to
be his mothers home was not
immediately returned Friday.
Investigators dont know
what caused the man to fall on
the tracks. Surveillance video
shows him walking slowly to-
ward the platforms edge and
then over it. He was taken to a
hospital and listed in stable con-
dition.
He didnt thank me, but I
know he was thankful, Knafelc
told the Daily News.

Duryea, went home to be with
the Lord on Tuesday evening,
March 26, 2013, at CMC Hospice,
Scranton, surrounded by her lov-
ing family.

Sept. 19, 1923, she was a daugh-
ter of the late Foster and Rose
Etta Penton Emnger.

completed basic training in Tal-
lahassee, Fla., where she worked
in the motor pool. Pvt. Emnger

while both were enlisted in the
U.S. Army. They celebrated 65
years of marriage prior to his
death in May 2010.
Dena operated her own busi-
ness, Denas Lunch, on Main
Street, Duryea, for more than 20
years and enjoyed serving her cus-
tomers great home cooking until

owers in the garden. She loved
the numerous trips to family re-
unions in her beloved hometown
of Wetumpka.
She was a devoted member of
Nativity of Our Lord Parish and
served with the Holy Name So-
ciety for many years. She often
commented on all the fun she had

grandmother. Her greatest joy
was spending time with her fam-
ily and she especially loved the
precious time she spent with her
great-grandchildren, Isabella and
Jason Jr.
Denas warm, Southern hospi-
tality made everyone feel right at
home.
Her outgoing personality and
wit made her the life of the party.
She enjoyed hosting family and
friends around her kitchen table
or on the patio, where she de-
lighted in an occasional margarita
as she reminisced about the good-
old days.
She was preceded in death by
her husband, Carmen; sisters,
Rosie Bell, Laura Mae, Thula and
Lee Verna; and brothers, Herman,
Cecil, Clarence and Bennett.

dren, Jennie, Carmella, Louis,
Darlene and Dino; six grandchil-
dren, Jason, Tori, Autum, Nico-
lette, Tyler and Madelyn; two

LONDON Richard
Griffiths was one of the great
British stage actors of his gen-
eration, a heavy man with a
light touch, whether in Shake-
speare or Neil Simon. But for
millions of movie fans, he will
always be grumpy Uncle Ver-
non, the least
magical of
characters in
the fantastical
Harry Potter
movies.
G r i f f i t h s
died Thurs-
day at Univer-
sity Hospital
in Coventry, central England
from complications following
heart surgery, his agent, Simon
Beresford, said. He was 65.
Harry Potter star Daniel
Radcliffe paid tribute to the
actor Friday, saying that any
room he walked into was made
twice as funny and twice as
clever just by his presence.
I am proud to say I knew
him, Radcliffe said.
Griffiths won a Tony Award
for The History Boys and ap-
peared in dozens of movies and
TV shows. But he will be most
widely remembered as a pair
of contrasting uncles Harry
Potters Uncle Vernon Dursley
and Uncle Monty in cult lm
Withnail and I.
Griffiths was among a huge
roster of British acting talent
to appear in the Harry Pot-
ter series of lms released be-
tween 2001 and 2011.
His role, as the grudging,
magic-fearing guardian of or-
phaned wizard Harry, was
small but pivotal. Griffiths
once said he liked playing Un-
cle Vernon because that gives
me a license to be horrible to
kids.
But Radcliffe recalled
Griffiths kindness to the
young star.
Richard was by my side dur-
ing two of the most important
moments of my career, said
Radcliffe, who in 2007 starred
with Griffiths in a London
and Broadway production of
Equus.
In August 2000, before of-
cial production had even begun
on Potter, we lmed a shot
outside the Dursleys, which
was my rst ever shot as Harry.
I was nervous and he made me
feel at ease.

Administrator pleads guilty
A Mountain Top woman who
worked as Nanticokes city adminis-
trator and then was placed on leave
after a driving-under-the-inuence-
related crash pleaded guilty Thursday
to a DUI charge.
Holly Cirko, 39, entered the plea at
a hearing before Senior Judge Hugh
Mundy. Cirko will be sentenced on
May 9, Mundy said. She faces an
18-month drivers license suspension,
according to court papers, and also
pleaded guilty to a summary charge
of careless driving.
Cirko had worked as Nanticoke
citys administrator but was placed on
paid leave after crashing her car into a
wall at about 3 a.m. June 26. Her last
day of employment with the city was
Aug. 3.
Cirko was driving a Volkswagen Jet-
ta that struck a retaining wall outside
the 24-hour Coco Hut Convenience
Mart in Nanticoke, police said.
After hitting the wall, Cirko got out
of her car and went into the store,
said police, who reported she then
got back into her car and drove away.
Cirko was located a short time later
by police.

Warning on bogus mailing
Secretary of the Commonwealth
Carol Aichele is warning Pennsylva-
nia corporations about a bogus mail-
ing some rms have received, leading
businesses to believe they must send
$125 and le an Annual Meeting Dis-
closure Statement by a certain date,
or risk being listed in bad standing
with the state.
The mailing comes from a com-
pany called Pennsylvania Corporate
Compliance Company and, near the
top of the letter, includes a direct cita-
tion from the Pennsylvania Business
Corporation Law regarding corporate
records. Despite the suggestive lan-
guage and ofcial look of the mailing,
there is no ling called an Annual
Meeting Disclosure Statement re-
quired in Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania
Corporate Compliance Company has
no association with state government.

Swoyersville Borough Councilman Christopher Concert explains how iers
soliciting donations are being circulated for the shuttered Swoyersville
Volunteer Hose Co. No. 1, a company that is widely believed to be closed.
SWOYERSVILLE Borough of-
cials are raising questions about a i-
er soliciting donations for a re com-
pany that they thought had closed
months ago due to the talleged theft
of $700,000 in bingo proceeds.
Council member Chris Concert
said Friday he had been approached
by a number of concerned residents
who are asking why they received a
ier to donate to the Swoyersville Vol-
unteer Hose Company No. 1.
Borough ofcials said they believed
the re station had ceased operation
after two re company ofcers, Carol
Gamble and her mother, Catherine
Drago, had been charged in 2008 with
taking the money from bingo fund-
raisers over a three-year period. Theft
charges against them are pending in
Luzerne County Court.
Borough coordinator Gene Breznay
said he hasnt seen anyone going in
or out of the re station for months
and is aware that the hose companys
re truck has been on loan to a West
Wyoming station since the Septem-
ber 2011 ood.
Is (Hose Company No. 1) oper-
ating? Breznay said. I really dont
know. (The borough) has tried to get
them to clarify their position but
we dont have an answer for people.
Both Breznay and Concert said
they are unsure who holds ofcer po-
sitions within the hose company.
Concert has no problem with West
Wyoming borrowing the re truck, he
said. But hes bothered that the bor-
ough is unclear on whether the re
station is open and, more important,

SCRANTON A hearing will be held
next week at Marywood University to
give area residents a chance to voice
their stance on the governors proposed
liquor store privatization plan.
State Rep. Marty Flynn is hosting the
April 2 hearing for the House Democrat-
ic Policy Committee after the House vot-
ed last week in favor of the privatization.
The issue of liquor store privatiza-
tion has ramications on jobs, tax rev-
enue and what kind of state we want
Pennsylvania to be, Flynn, D-Scranton,
said in a press release.
Flynn said he believes House Bill 790
was rushed through by Republican
leaders without public hearings and that
the bill is likely to return to the House in
a new form.
According to House Bill 790, once
the bill becomes law, the Pennsylvania
Liquor Control Board will begin issuing
licenses to grocery stores, convenience
stores, pharmacies and big box stores.
Grocery stores: For an initial li-
cense fee, plus an annual renewal fee of
$25,000, stores can sell two 6-packs of
beer and up to six bottles of wine per
customer.
Convenience stores: For an initial
license fee and annual renewal fee of
$10,000, stores can sell one six-pack of
beer.
Big box stores: For an initial
license fee and annual renewal fee of
$35,000, stores can sell beer by the case
and up to six bottles of wine.
Pharmacies: For an initial license
fee and annual renewal fee of $17,500,
pharmacies can sell two six-packs of
beer and up to six bottles of wine.
Beer distributors: For an initial
licensing fee of $150,00 and an annual
renewal fee of $10,000, beer distributors
can sell unlimited quantities of wine and
can have the ability to break a case of
beer and sell a minimum of 42 ounces.
Hours of operation also may vary:
Wine and spirits licensees will be
permitted to be open from 9 a.m. to 11
p.m. Monday through Saturday; and 9
a.m. to 9 p.m. Sundays, if a Sunday sales
permit is purchased annually for $2,000.
Wine and spirit wholesale licenses
can sell between 2 a.m. of any Monday
and midnight of the following Saturday.
The plan will close about 620 state-
owned stores and auction off 1,200 wine
and liquor store licenses. In addition,
about 5,000 people will be put out of
work; but the plan calls for them to be
given extra points toward a state Civil
Service Exam, be eligible for other state
jobs or receive a two-year educational
grant of $1,000 or $500.

HARRISBURG After a record-
setting year in Pennsylvania, more
than two dozen counties, including
Luzerne and Lackawanna, are seeing
a boost to their state grants to control
West Nile Virus this year.
The Department of Environmental
Protection awarded nearly $2.2 mil-
lion in West Nile Virus Control pro-
gram grants to 26 counties, which are
slated to begin surveillance activities
in early April. That equates to about
$20,000 more per county than the
funds allocated in 2012 with the
additional grant funding to be used
to cover the costs of new spray equip-
ment.
This grant funding will help the
counties that are most affected by
West Nile Virus to monitor and con-
trol mosquitoes, DEP Secretary Mike
Krancer said in a news release.
Because of the mild winter and
early spring, 2012 proved to be a re-
cord year for the virus in Pennsylva-
nia. The rst positive mosquito was
discovered May 4, the earliest ever
on record. That kicked off a year that
brought 3,656 positive tests for the vi-
rus, the highest recorded numbers of
human, bird, mosquito and veterinary
positives since 2003.
In Luzerne County there were 139
positives and the virus led to the
death of four people statewide, in-
cluding retired Wilkes-Barre police
ofcer Joseph Krawetz, who died in
August at age 82 after being bitten by
a virus-carrying mosquito.
In humans, the virus can cause
West Nile fever and encephalitis, an
infection that can cause inammation
of the brain and death. Most people
bitten by an infected mosquito will
never develop any symptoms, and
only one person out of 150 people
with symptoms will develop the more
serious West Nile encephalitis.
The 2013 West Nile Virus Control
grants announced for local counties
are: Luzerne, $79,500; Lackawanna,
$55,411; and Monroe, $30,000.
Aaron Stredny, the Luzerne County
coordinator for the West Nile Control
Program, said: This year our season-
al staff returns on April 15 to begin
pre-emptive larviciding. The larvicid-
ing will focus in and around mapped
historical breeding habitats through-
out the county.
Stredny said: This early larval
treatment is paramount in reducing
the adult population of mosquitoes
through the summer months and into
autumn. In turn, this early attack also
aids in lowering the infection rate of
WNV carrying mosquitoes within the
mosquito-breeding season, keeping
the publics risk low.

WILKES-BARRE The 82-year-
old woman at the center of price-
gouging allegations directed at
the citys towing contractor has
declined the offer of a free vehicle
from an area auto dealer after her
car was stolen, returned in dam-
aged condition and junked.
Americas Choice Cars & Credit
Inc. on Blackman Street had a gold
2002 Oldsmobile Alero with a book
value of $9,995 ready for Natalie
Aleo.
She appreciated the gesture, but
on Friday said she could not accept
the car because of her nancial
situation. The insurance coverage
coupled with the cost of taking
care of the house she lives in and
one shes trying to sell would be
too much.
I just cant do it, Aleo said.
For transportation, shes been re-
lying on family and friends.
The offer of free wheels still
stands if she changes her mind,
however. Robyn Smith, sales man-
ager at Americas Choice, said
Aleos case attracted the attention
of company owners Ronald Small-
comb and Gary Debise. If no one
helped by now, someone needs to,
Smith said, explaining the owners
interest.
They had helped out a customer
from the Bloomsburg area a few
years ago whose house was de-
stroyed in a re just before the start
of the school year. They basically
just tore up the loan, Smith said.
Its been nearly four months since
Aleos 1993 Oldsmobile Sierra was
stolen in Wilkes-Barre and found in
Plymouth. LAG Towing, which has
the citys towing contract, trans-
ported the car to its lot off Carey

WILKES-BARRE AHazle-
ton woman charged with not
reporting a claim of 9-year-old
girl being sexually abused was
sentenced Thursday to seven to
23 months in county prison.
Maxine Tini, 30, of South Ful-
ton Court, was sentenced on a
charge of endangering the wel-
fare of children that she pleaded
guilty to in January. She re-
ceived 237 days credit for time
already served and was immedi-
ately paroled.
According to court papers,
Hazleton police said a 9-year-
old girl reported to Tini that
she was being sexually abused
by Earl Kozich, 28, also of Ha-
zleton. When questioned about
whether she knew the girl alleg-
edly had been abused, Tini said
she did not recall being told that
and never called the police or
county Children and Youth ser-
vices.
Tini said on one occasion
she did nd the girl in bed
with Kozich and thought it was
strange, but a friend told her the
girl was probably just seeking at-
tention.
Kozich was charged in Febru-
ary 2012 with one count of ag-
gravated indecent assault and is
awaiting an April 29 trial. Court
papers state that when Kozich
was questioned about the al-
leged assaults, which reportedly
occurred between October 2011
and January 2012, he admitted
to touching the girl on at least
ve occasions.

how that impacts response
times in emergencies.
Ive tried to sit down with
(Hose Company No. 1), but I
dont know who to contact,
Concert said. I would love to
get all three (Swoyersville) re
stations together with the bor-
ough and council and talk.
The ier says donations may
be made to the hose company
by mailing them to a Kingston
P.O Box. On Friday, a West
Wyoming truck could be seen
inside the re station and no
lights appeared to be on other
than a neon beer sign.
The ier also states dona-
tions will be used for equip-
ment, building maintenance
and insurance, and asks for a
$25 donation from residents
and $50 from businesses or
whatever the donor can afford.
This is our 99th year of
service to our neighbors and
surrounding communities, it
states. We would like to thank
everyone that donated last year
and look forward to your sup-
port again this year. Without
you, our department wouldnt
be possible.
Concert is concerned with
the emergency response time
for people who live near Hose
Company No. 1 on Scott Street,
he said, but is glad there are
two other stations in the bor-
ough: the Maltby Volunteer
Fire Co. on Owen Street and
the Volunteer Hose Co. No. 2
on Slocum Street.
Breznay and Concert said
they dont feel that anyone
in the borough is in jeopardy
because of mutual aid agree-
ments with neighboring re
companies.
Concert hopes the issue is
addressed at Mondays regu-
lar council meeting, which is
scheduled to begin at 6:30 p.m.
in the borough building on
Shoemaker Street.
Drago, 82, and Gamble, 51,
were charged in December
2008 after an investigation that
began in 2005 with the state
Bureau of Charitable Organiza-
tions.
Drago, of Forty Fort, had
served as the re companys
treasurer, while Gamble, a
West Pittston resident, served
as the companys president.
Both women allegedly took
control of collecting and depos-
iting money generated at bingo
games held as department fun-
draisers.
The investigation began after
Drago submitted incomplete
information as part of a routine
survey the bureau conducts. A
bureau ofcial became suspi-
cious because the amount of
revenue Drago reported the
bingo games generated was
less than the bureau thought it
should be.
An audit was conducted,
according to court papers,
which determined the hose
company generated a total of
$1,789,529 from Jan. 1, 2004 to
Nov. 14, 2007. Of that amount,
$1,054,781 was deposited into
the departments bank account,
leaving $734,748 unaccounted
for.
Search warrants conducted
in the case revealed Drago and
Gamble allegedly issued checks
totaling more than $400,000 to
themselves dating from Janu-
ary 2005 to September 2006.
The mother and daughter
were scheduled to stand trial
earlier this month, but the trial
was continued to July 29.
Joseph Sklarosky Sr., Dragos
attorney, said in court papers
the 82-year-old had suffered a
heart attack and was unable to
discuss the case with him. Lu-
zerne County Judge Judge Lesa
Gelb granted the request and
scheduled the July trial date.
Times Leader efforts to lo-
cate a hose company contact
were unsuccessful.

LAGs owner, contacted Aleo
in January to informed her of
its whereabouts. Wilkes-Barre
police failed to notify her that
the car had been recovered.
Aleo and Glodzik later dis-
puted what would have been
covered by the the nearly
$2,000 gure supposedly quot-
ed to her to retrieve the auto.
She said it was to pay towing
and storage fees, even though
LAGs contract precludes him
from charging crime victims.
He said it was a hypothetical
amount to repair her car that
had a blown engine.
She handed over to Glodzik
the title to her car because she
was unable to pay the cost. He
said he planned to salvage it.
City Councilman Tony
George seized upon the case in
his call for Mayor Tom Leigh-
ton to begin the termination
process of LAGs contract. No
decision has been made yet on
the issue.
Last week Glodzik returned
Aleos car to her, but it had
signicant front-end damage,
seemingly in contrast to the
condition it was found. The
Plymouth police ofcer who
led the incident report on the
car did not note any exterior
damage.
Mark Robbins of Forty Fort,
an outspoken critic of Glodzik
and LAG, raised $300 in pri-
vate donations for Aleo and
sought contributions at Tues-
day nights council meeting.
Aleo politely declined to take
the check that Robbins wrote
for her.

COURT BRIEF
PITTSBURGH (AP) Of-
cials in western Pennsylvania
and Gov. Tom Corbetts admin-
istration are talking to US Air-
ways executives in an effort to
keep the airline from moving
600 jobs from suburban Pitts-
burgh to Texas as it prepares to
merge with American Airlines.
It was too early to say whether
a new round of taxpayer-funded
incentives could be part of the
approach to keeping the US Air-
ways jobs at a ight operations
control center, said a spokesman
for the Corbett administration.
We dont know exactly what
their next step is, but the gov-
ernor is certainly paying close
attention to the situation and is
committed to having his cabi-
net secretaries work with the
local ofcials and US Airways
to maintain that facility and
preserve the jobs, spokesman
Steve Kratz said Friday.
The airline plans an $11 bil-
lion merger with American
Airlines that will produce the
worlds biggest airline. In a
meeting this month with pilots,
US Airways CEO Doug Parker
said the airline as a result might
close the $32 million suburban
Pittsburgh center in a couple
years, the Pittsburgh Post-Ga-
zette reported. It would consoli-
date it with Americans larger
facility in Dallas.
Parker did not provide much
hope for the facility in an in-
terview with The Philadelphia
Inquirers editorial board this
week.
Weve been really candid
with everybody who asks,
Parker told The Inquirer. Its
unlikely (the Pittsburgh center
will remain open) because the
Dallas operations control center
is so much larger.
Many of the Pittsburgh em-
ployees, who coordinate US
Airways 3,000 daily ights near
that airport, will be offered jobs
in Dallas, he said.
Still, some jobs at the facility
might be in jeopardy.
US Airways has said that near-
ly 5,000 nonunion employees,
including 300 at the suburban
Pittsburgh center, will qualify
for severance packages if they
are not offered jobs with the
newly merged company.
US Airways now employs
about 1,800 people in western
Pennsylvania and operates 41
daily departures from Pitts-
burgh, down from its peak of
512 in 2001.
US Airways urged to retain Pa. jobs
The airline plans an $11 bil-
lion merger with American
Airlines.
WASHINGTONMembers of Con-
gress are traveling less and worrying
more about meeting ofce salaries.
Their aides are contending with long
lines to get inside their ofces and
fewer prospects of a raise. Such are the
indignities thrust upon the men and
women who brought the country $85
billion in government spending cuts
this month.
There probably wont be much sym-
pathy for a senator or congressman
making $174,000 a year who is in no
danger of being furloughed or laid off,
at least until the next election. Still,
there has been an effort, especially in
the Republican-led House, to show
that no one should be exempt from
sacrice.
As those who are charged with the
care of taxpayers dollars, we need to
lead by example, U.S. Rep. Candice
Miller, R-Mich., who chairs the House
Administration Committee, said last
week in promoting a bill to slash the
budgets of House committees by 11
percent.
Earlier in March after Congress
and the White House failed to come up
with an alternative to across-the-board
cuts in most federal programs the
House imposed an 8.2 percent reduc-
tion in lawmakers personal ofce bud-
gets. That came on top of 11 percent
cuts to members ofce budgets during
2011-2012.
Weve drastically reduced travel
both for myself and my staff, said
Republican Rep. John Campbell, who
must cross the country to visit his
southern California district. He said
he tends to stay in Washington on two-
day weekends rather than return home.
Im more productive here when Im
not rushing to get home, he added.
Campbell said other little things
he is doing to economize include re-
ducing the ofce phone bill, cutting
off magazine and newspaper subscrip-
tions, and using email rather than let-
ters to communicate with voters.
U.S. Rep. Luke Messer, a freshman
Republican from Indiana, said he hired
fewer people when he came to Wash-
ington because we essentially began
the term knowing there was a high
possibility of a sequester Washing-
ton-speak for the automatic spending
cuts.
So far, congressional staffers appear
to have escaped the furloughs that
are likely to send thousands of public
servants home without pay for several
workdays over the next six months and
disrupt some government services.
I hope to avoid that, said U.S. Rep
Jared Polis, D-Colo., but we will take
any steps to ensure we dont exceed
our budget. Under House rules, a law-
maker must pay for excess spending
out of his or her own pocket.

Ofcials: Elevate ood homes
F
ederal ofcials are encouraging
homeowners in ood-prone com-
munities to consider elevating their
homes and increasing their deduct-
ibles to cut down on the sticker shock
some homeowners have begun to
experience as their ood insurance
premiums increase.
Congress approved legislation last
year designed to put the National
Flood Insurance Program on rmer -
nancial footing. The legislation gradu-
ally eliminates government-subsidized
premiums for more than 1 million
properties in ood-prone communities.
The insurance premiums for vaca-
tion and rental homes participating in
the program increased 25 percent on

Mercy killer gets probation
An 86-year-old man who carried out a
mercy killing by shooting his ailing wife
and high school sweetheart in the head
was sentenced Friday to probation after
an emotional hearing at which family
members tearfully spoke on his behalf.
George Sanders could have faced
more than 12 years in prison after
pleading guilty to manslaughter. The
judge, who complimented the prosecu-
tor for being courageous in recom-
mending probation, allowed Sanders to
walk out of the courtroom.
Judge John Ditsworth said his

CONCORD, N.H.
Firearms companies wooed
Firearms manufacturers upset over
newly restrictive gun laws and propos-
als in their home states are getting a
message from other places: Move here,
where the climate is favorable to your
products and so are the tax codes.
In New Hampshire, a group of con-
servative Republicans sent letters woo-
ing gun companies. Politicians in Vir-
ginia and West Virginia have said they
would welcome Beretta if it chose to
leave Maryland. Alaska House Speaker
Mike Chenault, in a letter to the head

of new gun laws in Colorado, the home
of the rearms accessory and maga-

When the debate over gun laws

Ice cream shop gets reprieve
The owner of a western Pennsylva-
nia ice cream parlor that also accepted
money deposits but paid customers
interest in ice cream shop gift cards
said state regulators are backing off
now that hes changed the name of
his banking business and made other
alterations.
The Pennsylvania Department
of Banking in September wanted
Ethan Clay to shut down the com-
munity bank hes set up at his Oh
Yeah ice cream and coffee shop, and
in November sent a letter warning
he faced $10,000 nes for multiple
violations.

Corbett
targets
domestic
violence
HARRISBURG Gov. Tom
Corbett made a pitch Friday
for a proposed increase in state
spending to combat the domestic
violence that claims an average of
one life every three days in Penn-
sylvania.
Corbetts appearance with anti-
domestic violence advocates con-
tinued a string
of appearances
around the state
as he stumps for
an ambitious
$28.4 billion
state budget
plan that is un-
der consider-
ation by law-
makers.
The $1.3 million boost to $13.8
million to ght domestic violence
would bolster an overextended
array of services from shelters for
battered women to counseling
and legal services, Corbett said at
a news conference at the YWCA
of Greater Harrisburg, which runs
one of the states 60 domestic vio-
lence programs.
Just because it happens be-
hind closed doors or because
the victim and the assailant know
each other doesnt make it accept-
able. We all agree that its not ac-
ceptable, said Corbett, who was
anked by more than a dozen ad-
vocates for the programs.
Corbetts request would push
spending for domestic violence
services to nearly $14 million for
the scal year that starts July 1
a 10 percent increase that is three
times the overall spending growth
in his 2013-14 state budget plan.
The programs had been given just
under $12.5 million two years ago,
when Corbett took ofce.
The Pennsylvania Coalition
Against Domestic Violence urged
lawmakers to match the increase
that Corbett proposed.
The governors request is a
recognition of the need for addi-
tional funding, coalition spokes-
woman Judy Yupcavage said.
Corbetts entire budget plan for
the scal year that begins July 1
would increase core state govern-
ment spending by nearly 3 per-
cent, including boosting support
for public schools by $90 million,
or about 1 percent. It also seeks
savings of $175 million in public
employee pension contributions
and business tax cuts of more than
$330 million.
In 2012, 141 people were killed
by domestic violence in Pennsyl-
vania, according to the coalition.
They included 110 victims and 31
perpetrators.
Governor urges $1.3 million
boost to states $13.8 million
allocation for services.

Brinkmanship might be aimed at forcing negotiations
SEOUL, South Korea Across North
Korea, soldiers are gearing up for battle
and shrouding their jeeps and vans with
camouage netting. Newly painted sign-
boards and posters call for death to the
U.S. imperialists and urge the people to
ght with arms, not words.
But even as North Korean leader Kim
Jong Un is issuing midnight battle cries to
his generals to ready their rockets, he and
his million-man army know full well that
a successful missile strike on U.S. targets
would be suicide for the outnumbered,
out-powered North Korean regime.
Despite the hastening drumbeat of
warfare seemingly bringing the region
to the very brink of conict with threats
and provocations Pyongyang seem-
ingly aims to force Washington to the
negotiating table, pressure the newpresi-
dent in Seoul to change policy on North
Korea, and build unity inside the country
without triggering a full-blown war.
North Korea wants to draw attention to
the tenuousness of the armistice designed
to maintain peace on the Korean Peninsu-
la, a truce Pyongyang recently announced
it would no longer honor as it warned that
war could break out at any time.
In July, it will be 60 years since North
Korea and China signed an armistice with
the United States and the United Nations
to bring an end to three years of ghting
that cost millions of lives. The designated
Demilitarized Zone has evolved into the
most heavily guarded border in the world.
It was never intended to be a perma-
nent border. But six decades later, North
and South remain divided, with Pyong-
yang feeling abandoned by the South
Koreans in the quest for reunication and
threatened by the Americans.
In that time, South Korea has blos-
somed from an agrarian nation of peas-
ants into the worlds 15th largest econ-
omy while North Korea is struggling to
nd a way out of a Cold War chasm that
has left it with a per capita income on par
with sub-Saharan Africa.
The Chinese troops who fought along-
side the North Koreans have long since
left. But 28,500 American troops are still
stationed in South Korea and 50,000 more
are in nearby Japan. For weeks, the United
States and South Korea have been show-
ing off their military might with a series of
exercises seen as a rehearsal for invasion.

Syrian rebels capture key southern town
BEIRUT Capitalizing on
a recent inux of weapons,
Syrian rebels are waging a stra-
tegic battle for the southern
part of the country and seek-
ing to secure a corridor from
the Jordanian border to Da-
mascus in preparation for an
eventual assault on the capital.
On Friday, the rebels cel-
ebrated their latest victory:
They seized full control of
Dael, a key town along a main
highway, after forces of Presi-
dent Bashar Assads regime all
but withdrew from the area.
God is great! We are com-
ing, Bashar! armed ghters
cried overnight Thursday after
they captured the last of the
military checkpoints in the
town where Assads forces had
been holed up, according to
amateur video posted online.
Dael is one of the bigger
towns in the southern Daraa
province, where the uprising
against Assad began in March
2011, when security forces ar-
rested high school students
who scrawled anti-regime graf-
ti on a wall.
Activists say it was in Dael
that the rst statue of Assads
father and predecessor, the
late President Hafez Assad,
was rst toppled shortly after
the protests broke out.
The strategic region
known as the Houran plains,
which stretch from the out-
skirts of the capital south into
Jordan is seen as a crucial
gateway to the ultimate prize
of Damascus.

Sheldon G. Cohen, M.D.
March 26, 2013
S
heldon G. Cohen, M.D., 94, a
research scientist, physician
and medical historian of Chevy
Chase, Md. and formerly of Penn-
sylvania, died March 26, 2013, in
his home as a result of complica-
tions from a stroke.
Born in Pittston on Sept. 21,
1918, he was a son of Dorothy
and Samuel Cohen. Dr. Cohen at-
tended Pittston schools and was
a graduate of Wyoming Seminary,
the Ohio State University and the
New York University School of
Medicine.
He served as a ight surgeon,
rising to the rank of captain, with
the U.S. Army Air Force during
World War II. Immediately after
the war, Dr. Cohen did post-doc-
toral research at the University
of Pittsburgh. In the Wilkes-Barre
area, he was associated with the
former Mercy, Wilkes-Barre Gen-
eral and Veterans Affairs (Admin-
istration) hospitals.
Dr. Cohen arrived in Maryland
in 1972 from his private medical
practice and an experimental bi-
ology research professorship at
Wilkes University. He was invited
to join the National Institutes of
Health after his ofces in Wilkes-
Barre were inundated in the Ag-
nes Flood of 1972, destroying his
extensive patient records and re-
search.
He was employed by the Nation-
al Institutes of Health, National
Library of Medicine, where he was
engaged in history of medicine re-
search and writing for the past 25
years. Prior to that time, Dr. Co-
hen led the Immunology, Allergic
and Immunologic Diseases extra-
mural research grant program in
the National Institute for Allergy
and Infectious Diseases. He also
served as a clinician and research-
er at NIH.
A recipient of numerous awards,
Dr. Cohen was recognized as a pio-
neer and dogged advocate for al-
lergic disease and asthma research
and treatment. With his quick wit,
kindness and generosity, he was
known to occasionally accept a
bushel of tomatoes or sweet corn
as payment from some of his Wil-
kes-Barre-area patients.
Dr. Cohen was an inveterate
sherman and a dedicated fresh-
water sailor during his years in
Pennsylvania, though he often
joked that the sh enjoyed a holi-
day whenever he was on the water.
His curiosity led him to interna-
tional travel and the exploration
of other cultures with friends and
colleagues around the world. Of
late, he enjoyed watching college
sports on television and when his
Ohio State teams took to the eld
or the court, he would kindly rib
his University of Michigan great-
nephew about the ongoing rivalry.
His sister, Bernyce Cohen Ep-
stein, preceded him in death in
2004.
Dr. Cohen is survived by his
nephew, Lee Epstein, Silver
Spring, Md.; niece, Jayne Epstein,
Tempe, Ariz.; and three great-
nephews.

tutes of Health, National Library

March 15, 2013
B
arbara Baicker Reisenbach, 80,
passed away of natural causes
on Friday, March 15, 2013, at
Mount Sinai Hospital in New York
City.
She was the daughter of Harry

of the late Miriam B. Milgram and
Joseph Baicker.
Born in Wilkes-Barre on Feb. 4,
1933, Barbara attended Wyoming
Seminary and Beaver College in
suburban Philadelphia. She moved
to New York City in the late 1950s.
She married Sanford Reisenbach
and raised two children, John and
Liza, in North Tarrytown, N.Y.
After her divorce in 1977, she
moved to New York City where she
worked for many years at NBC. She
later worked as a real estate broker

NEW YORK A judge has
tossed out a lawsuit that sought
to stop the display of a cross-
shaped steel beam found among
the World Trade Centers rub-
ble, saying the artifact could
help tell the story of the 9/11
terrorist attacks.
U.S. District Judge Deborah
Batts in a ruling released public-
ly Friday rejected the arguments
of American Atheists, which had
sued the National September 11
Memorial & Museums opera-
tors in 2011 on constitutional
grounds, contending that the
prominent display of the cross
constitutes an endorsement of
Christianity, diminishing the
contributions of non-Christian
rescuers.
Batts wrote that the cross
and its accompanying panels
of text helps demonstrate how
those at ground zero coped with
the devastation they witnessed
during the rescue and recovery
effort. She called its purpose
historical and secular and
noted that it will be housed at
the museum in the Finding
Meaning at Ground Zero sec-
tion with placards explaining
its meaning and the reason for
its inclusion. It also will be sur-
rounded by secular artifacts.
No reasonable observer
would view the artifact as en-
dorsing Christianity, the judge
said. She added that the mu-
seums creators have not ad-
vanced religion impermissibly,
and the cross does not create ex-
cessive entanglement between
the state and religion. She said
the plaintiffs also failed to allege
any formof intentional discrimi-
nation or cite any adverse or un-
equal treatment on the basis of
their religious beliefs.
The 17-foot-tall steel beam
was found by rescue workers
two days after the terror attacks.
It is scheduled to be displayed
among 1,000 artifacts, photos,
oral histories and videos in an
underground museum that will
also house the staircase work-
ers used to escape the towers
as well as portraits of the nearly
3,000 victims and oral histories
of Sept. 11. The museum, still
under construction and sched-
uled to open next year, is part of
a memorial plaza that includes
waterfalls that ll the fallen tow-
ers footprints.
Edwin F. Kagin, a lawyer for
the atheists group, said in a call
from the groups convention in
Austin, Texas, that he will ap-
peal. Naturally, we dont like
the ruling and we think its in-
correct, he said.

Man allegedly ees crash scene
HANOVER TWP. Town-
ship police earlier this week
led drunken-driving charges
against a Nanticoke man af-
ter an alleged crash and a foot
chase in February.
Police allege James Hughes,
24, attempted to hide in the
woods on Feb. 26 near the site
where he crashed into the rear
of a Toyota driven by Theresa
Morgan, of Nanticoke, on an
exit ramp from state Route
29 to the Sans Souci Parkway.
A passerby helped police to
locate Hughes hiding in the
woods, police said.
Morgan was not injured in
the crash.
Hughes was transported
to Geisinger Wyoming Valley
Medical Center in Plains Town-
ship for minor injuries and for
a blood test.
Police on Monday led three
counts of driving under the
inuence, two counts of acci-
dents involving injury and one
count each of accidents caus-
ing damage to vehicle, posses-
sion of a controlled substance,
possession of drug parapherna-
lia, tampering with evidence,
speeding and driving without
a license.
The charges against Hughes
were led with District Judge
Joseph Halesey in Hanover
Township; they were mailed to
Hughes. A preliminary hearing
is scheduled on April 30.
After Hughes was appre-
hended, police say they learned
he was wanted by the Luzerne
County Sheriffs Department
on an arrest warrant issued by
Senior Judge Joseph Augello
on Nov. 2. The arrest warrant
was issued when Hughes failed
to appear for a hearing on al-
legations he violated probation
on two unrelated cases, police
said.
Court records indicate
Hughes was sentenced on Feb.
7, 2011, to three years proba-
tion for the following offenses:
Oct. 23, 2009: Hanover
Township police detained
Hughes while investigating a
suspicious person slashing a
cars soft top and damaging a
basement window on Oaklawn
Avenue. A paramedic was sum-
moned to treat Hughes for a
head injury. Hughes shoved
and kicked the paramedic.
May 7, 2010: Wilkes-Barre
police during a trafc stop at
Carey Avenue and New Alex-
ander Street found heroin on
the passenger side oor where
Hughes had been sitting. Seven
heroin packets were found in
Hughes groin area.
Augello resentenced Hughes
on March 11 to 30 days house
arrest with electronic monitor-
ing, according to court records.

Disturbed sleep has
writer angry at policy
M
any regions of the United States put
a priority on citizens health. The
Alameda 7, for example, is named
after seven health habits determined
by a government study to prolong life.
Among these seven habits, getting suf-
cient sleepseven to eight hours per
nighthas been recognized for so long
as essential that its a truism.
Not in Nanticoke. Here we have trash
collection in the small hours of the night.
Our city manager doesnt live here so she
never has to worry about insomnia and
its effects on her health or the health of
her loved ones. Not us people who live
in the town she manages. Its city policy
to disrupt and break the sleep of citi-
zens, particularly in our inner city by
allowing J.P. Mascaro to grind and smash
garbage beginning at 2 am.
When you think of it, if any city in this
valley should be image-conscious, its
Nanticoke. Luzerne County Community
College is the gift that keeps on giving,
in terms of ever-expanding beautiful
campus buildings. Do the city leaders
know something we folk in low places
dont? Do they know most L.C.C.C. stu-
dents live elsewhere? But why shouldnt
students want to live in this lovely,
pretty little town? The message from city
administrators to those of us who do live
here, and who recognize and respect its
potential to be the once-stunning town it
used to be, is very troubling.
This is a company town and that
company is J.P. Mascaros. City leaders
message is We dont care about your
sleep, your health, or your babys, or your
grandmothers or grandfathers. Mascaro
and Sons rules. Mascaro has our permis-
sion to wreak havoc not only with your
health but with Pennsylvania law, and
make all the chronic loud noise in the
small hours its corporate heart desires.
We just dont care.
And thats too bad. Not caring is one
way to ensure this beautiful citys reputa-
tion as a meth destination, by making
the quality of life abysmal, rock-bottom.
Maybe in her mountain home, the city
manager can listen to lovely night sounds
of the forest.
Let them eat cake was one power-
ful womans motto. Maybe our very own
powerful woman wakes up refreshed and
well-rested and says, Let them sleep like
Gitmo detainees.

xactly what public cor-
ruption costs taxpayers
and tollpayers is dif-
cult to pin down, but if
what a grand jury investigation
of the Pennsylvania Turnpike
found about just one contract is
any indication, its beyond stag-
gering.
Thanks to inside information
that other bidders didnt get
and an executive lavishing trips,
gifts and dinners on turnpike
ofcials, contributing $19,000
to campaigns of then-Sen. Vin-
cent Fumo, D-Philadelphia, and
asking subcontractors to do-
nate, too Ciber Inc. of Colo-
rado landed a turnpike contract
worth $3.2 million in 2005
despite IBMs $496,000 low bid.
Then, in 2006, the Ciber con-
tract was expanded by $62.7 mil-
lion in a dramatic and unprec-
edented extension, according
to the grand jury. And what did
the turnpike get for its money,
while tolls skyrocketed? What
the grand jury called repeti-
tive, useless and make work
assignments. And the Ciber ex-
ecutives daughter, with no ex-
perience whatsoever, became
a $100-plus-per-hour turnpike
consultant.
The turnpike corruption
probed by the grand jury cost
untold millions, said state At-
torney General Kathleen Kane.
Combine that with what surely
was other turnpike corruption,
plus legislative and judicial cor-
ruption, and the total has to be
mind-numbingly high just
for recent years.
Oh, did we mention that
taxpayers picked up the nearly
$260,000 legal tab for those im-
plicated by the grand jury?
With so many betraying the
peoples trust by plundering the
public purse for personal and
political gain, Pennsylvanians
deserve answers: How much
more corruption is there? And
where and how does it
ever end?

A
lthough President
Barack Obama insists
that U.S. aid to the Syr-
ian rebels is non-lethal
and humanitarian, the CIA is
helping Arab governments and
Turkey buy and deliver arms to
the Syrian opposition, accord-
ing to The New York Times.
Does his administration believe
Americans can be easily lied to?
Americas policy goals toward
Syria are contradictory.
The United States wants the
rebels to succeed in overthrow-
ing President Bashar Assad, but
it realizes that the nature of the
rebel movement poses serious
problems to those who want to
help it win.
First, it is highly disorganized.
Moaz al-Khatib, president of the
Syrian opposition coalition, quit
Sunday in exasperation, but he
has since reappeared.
A second problem is the reb-
els are a collection of disparate
elements some linked to al-
Qaida, some extreme Islamist in
character and some who could
be considered terrorists.
Washington should have con-
sidered the likely nature of a
successor government to Mr.
Assads if regime change were
actually achieved in Damascus.
Would it be a coherent govern-
ment, an extreme Islamist re-
gime or simply chaos?
This needed to be raised in
light of Americas relationship
with a new government and
with reference to Syrias stra-
tegic position, with neighbors
such as Israel, Iraq, Jordan, Leb-
anon and Turkey.
These considerations had led
until now to a prudent U.S. ap-
proach, in spite of the human
suffering that has come with
the warfare.
The United States has re-
sponded to the humanitar-
ian problems with aid, which
was just increased during Mr.
Obamas visit to Jordan by $200
million for the Syrian refugees
sheltered there.
Now Americans have learned
that the administration helped
Arab states to buy arms in Croa-
tia for the rebels and to organize
the transport of those weapons
through Jordan, Qatar, Saudi
Arabia and Turkey.
It may be only a matter of
time before Syria strikes back at
a tottering Jordanian monarchy
in revenge for the part the Unit-
ed States helped Jordan play in
Syria.
All in all, the U.S. government
is taking a role in a civil war that
it has not thought through or
even explained to the American
people.
The public does not like to
learn about a major contradic-
tion in U.S. arms policy in the
press. They should be told by a
president who is supposed to be
in charge.

Better parenting is key to raising responsible children
SOMETIMES THErE
are days when I wish I
could go back in time to
when my most impor-
tant decisions were
resolved with an intense
shootout of rock-Paper-
Scissors, arguments on
the playground were settled with do-
overs, Saturday morning cartoons were
so much better and Lucky Charms were
indeed magically delicious.
There are times when being a grown-up
is just overrated. As we get older, every-
thing is more complicated. We are ex-
pected to be more responsible, the things
we need are more expensive and the years
somehow have a way of changing our bod-
ies and forcing us to give up those Lucky
Charms for more ber. (As it turns out,
Lucky Charms isnt really magical after
all you may be just as disappointed as I
was to learn that its really sugar and not
magic that makes them taste so good!)
The alternative to getting older,
however, is not really a better option. My
mothers recent passing was yet another
reminder that time goes by quickly and
life, no matter how many years we get, is
often way too short.
I am reecting on thoughts of my own
childhood and family as the United Way
and our Success By 6

Program prepares
to celebrate the Week of the Young
Child during the week of April 15-20. It is
a week where we will bring awareness and
attention to the needs and aspirations of
young children. For more information on
the Week of the Young Child and all of the
activities planned, please visit our website
at www.unitedwaywb.org.
The United Way has long been and will
continue to be an advocate for children.
We believe all children have a right to be
children and that all children and their
families deserve opportunities to achieve
their dreams regardless of any demo-
graphic or economic considerations. Your
investment and support of the United Way
helps thousands of children and families
each year in our community build a foun-
dation for future success.
As I get older and do my best to help
guide my daughters through their teenage
years, I am increasingly thankful for my
parents. They werent perfect, as none of
us ever are. Yet, for decades, my father did
his best to serve the community he loved
and the causes he valued. My mother, to
paraphrase Mother Theresa, did no great
things. She did do many small things
with great love. Although she worked
outside the home, the two jobs she cher-
ished most in life were being a mother
and then a grandmother.
I am very fortunate to have been born
into a family lled with love and had par-
ents that took parenting seriously. Sadly,
this is not always the case for far too many
children. Parents are their childrens rst
and most inuential teachers and role
models and parenting is the single most
important responsibility any of us will
ever have.
Last summer, Building Bridges, a
grassroots community organization, held
a series of discussions throughout Wilkes-
Barre on all the ways we can help area
children. The key nding of these discus-
sions highlighted the need for better par-
enting. It was an important insight and a
powerful acknowledgement and message
for all of us.
If life is short, childhood is even shorter.
The days of rock-Paper-Scissors, do-overs
and Saturday morning cartoons go by
quickly. We owe our children our best
efforts to help them reach their potential
and achieve their dreams. Growing older
just happens. Growing up, and growing up
responsibly, requires effort by all of us.

panic residents make up nearly
90 percent of those eligible, and
those earning two to four times
the poverty level comprise 59
percent of eligible area resi-
dents.
Under the Affordable Care Act,
Pennsylvanians who earn below
138 percent of the poverty level
and are eligible for Medicaid will
not be eligible for the new premi-
umtax credits. The Families USA
report assumes that states such
as Pennsylvania will expand Med-
icaid coverage when calculating
eligibility.
New state insurance market-
places are expected to offer four
tiers of coverage bronze, sil-
ver, gold and platinum and tax
credits will be calculated based
on silver-level plans. Pre-planned
rates help protect families from
spending more than a certain per-
centage of their income, accord-
ing to Kathleen Stoll, director of
health policy at Families USA.
Stoll said the tax credits pro-
vide help for those currently un-
insured in purchasing a health
care plan. Others who might nd
themselves with a bare bones,
employee-based plan or a large
premium now have a choice to
enter the state marketplace.
Health insurance is not a
cheap product for low-income or
middle-class families, said Stoll.
A lot of whats in the Affordable
Care Act, I believe, will help low-
er premiums. The new premium
tax credits will make being able
to purchase and afford insurance
a reality for millions of families.
Eligibility rates for the new
credits show working families
will benet most, Stoll said.
Coverage for younger adults
also adds a layer of security for
those entering the workforce
who might not be immediately
eligible for a work-based insur-
ance plan, she said.
The report shows that many
people who believed they were
ineligible for assistance will nd
that they were wrong. A family
thats struggling to afford insur-
ance is really going to want to
check this out and determine if
theyre going to be eligible for
some pretty signicant help,
Stoll said.
Additional information on the
open enrollment period and oth-
er health care changes is avail-
able at healthcare.gov.

want to face the added costs of
liens on top of interest.
Luzerne County property
owners are charged 9 percent
interest annually on delin-
quent taxes.
Liens and the resulting sher-
iff sales also remove the luxury
of sitting on a debt two years
until properties are listed for
back-tax auctions, Rodgers
said.
Some Luzerne County prop-
erty owners habitually wait
until the period right before
a back-tax auction to pay, he
said.
Earlier sales also reduce de-
terioration that can make prop-
erties less attractive to poten-
tial buyers, he said.
This brings money in quick-
er for the taxing bodies and al-
lows school districts and mu-
nicipalities not to absorb the
cost of collection, which they
do now, Rodgers said.
Two revenue sources
The projected $1.2 million
revenue estimate comes from
two sources.
The county would receive
an additional $35.50 in ling
fees for each lien, which would
total around $355,000 based
on the estimated 10,000 liens
Rodgers anticipates ling an-
nually.
He believes school districts
and municipalities would save
an estimated combined $1.25
million by no longer paying the
5 percent fee on back taxes col-
lected by his ofce. This num-
ber is based on the $25 million
in back taxes Northeast Rev-
enue forwarded to schools and
municipalities last year.
Taxing bodies would have to
negotiate an agreement with
Northeast Revenue to cover
the 5 percent fee payments
made before liens, he said.
Montgomery County agreed to
absorb this cost in exchange for
the benet of receiving more
back-tax revenue at the start
of the year instead of waiting,
Rodgers said.
Property owners would still
have the option to get on pay-
ment plans to avoid the liens,
he said.
The structure of these repay-
ment agreements is set by state
law 25 percent down with
the remainder paid off within
a year. Payment plan defaulters
arent eligible to participate in
another payment plan for three
years another state require-
ment.
Northeast Revenue has strict-
ly enforced these payment plan
requirements, Rodgers said.
Luzerne County Manager
Robert Lawton said he cant
comment on the proposal until
he receives it.
Rodgers said he hasnt pro-
posed the lien idea to Luzerne
County ofcials yet because he
rst wanted to fully research
the law and ensure it worked
successfully in Montgomery
County.
A similar program couldnt
be implemented in Luzerne
County until next year, he said.

project to correct what he con-
sidered the botched interpre-
tations of the Second Vatican
Councils modernizing reforms.
The ofcial end of the reform
of the reform by example,
Rorate Caeli lamented in its
report on Francis Holy Thurs-
day ritual.
A like-minded commentator
in Francis native Argentina,
Marcelo Gonzalez at Interna-
tional Catholic Panorama, react-
ed to Francis election with this
phrase: The Horror.
Gonzalezs beef? While serv-
ing as Cardinal Jorge Mario
Bergoglio, Francis efforts to re-
vive the old Latin Mass so dear
to Benedict and traditionalists
were non-existent.
As a result, no one should
have been surprised when Fran-
cis emerged from the loggia of
St. Peters Basilica on the night
of March 13 without the ermine-
rimmed red velvet cape, or
mozzetta, used by popes past for
ofcial duties, wearing instead
the simple white cassock of the
papacy.
Nor should they have blinked
when he received the cardinals
pledges of obedience after his
election not from a chair on a
pedestal as popes normally do
but rather standing, on their
same level. Or when he called for
intensied dialogue with Islam
gestures that rankled some
traditionalists to the core since
they viewinterfaith dialogue as a
sign of religious relativism.
Francis also raised traditional
eyebrows when he refused the
golden pectoral cross offered to
him right after his election by
Monsignor Guido Marini, the
Vaticans liturgy guru who under
Benedict became the symbol of
Benedicts effort to restore the
Gregorian chant and heavy silk
brocaded vestments of the pre-
VaticanII liturgy topapal Masses.
Marini has gamely stayed by
Francis side as the new pope
puts his own stamp on Vatican
Masses with no-nonsense vest-
ments and easy off-the-cuff hom-
ilies. But there is widespread ex-
pectation that Francis will soon
name a new master of liturgical
ceremonies more in line with
his priorities of bringing the
church and its message of love
and service to ordinary people
without the high church trap-
pings of his predecessor.
There were certainly none of
those trappings ondisplay Thurs-
day at the Casal del Marmo juve-
nile detention facility in Rome,
where the 76-year-old Francis got
down on his knees and to wash
the feet of 12 inmates, two of
them women. The rite re-enacts
Jesus washing of the feet of his
12 apostles during the Last Sup-
per before his crucixion, a sign
of his love and service to them.
The churchs liturgical law
holds that only men can partici-
pate in the rite, given that Jesus
apostles were all male. Priests
and bishops have routinely peti-
tioned for exemptions to include
women, but the law is clear.
Francis, however, is the
churchs chief lawmaker, so in
theory he can do whatever he
wants.

POPE
When you weigh thousands
of pounds, you might feel a little
uncomfortable stepping on a
scale before a crowd. But when
Viola, Kelley and Nina took their
turns walking onto the Mascaro
& Sons in-ground scale, they ap-
peared content, and the gather-
ing of adults and children fed
their egos while also feeding
their appetites.
Crowd pleasers
Each of the elephants waited
as several children approached
with the large carrots in hand to
feed their new friends.
Lindsey Hartzell of Shick-
shinny brought her daughter,
Alaina, 10, and niece, Jasmyne,
to see the elephants up close.
Theyre pretty cool, Alaina
said. Now I want one.
She was surprised at how big
the elephants were and how
they listened when Arthurs
called them by name.
Theyre so smart, Jasmyne
said. And so cute. I liked how
they posed for pictures.
Viola was guided toward a
J.P. Mascaro dump truck for a
picture.
Mark Cesare, general manag-
er, said the company has a blue
elephant mascot Dumpo
who acts as a spokes-elephant
for the companys Respect
program that was developed for
elementary school children. The
program focuses on teaching
children to respect themselves,
their friends, parents, teachers,
property, authority and the envi-
ronment, Cesare said.
We picked an elephant as our
logo because of their strength
and reliability, Cesare said.
Dumpo wasnt around Friday,
Cesare said. The mascot might
have been a little intimidated by
the three big girls on site.
Big stars, big show
Hank Cordy and Noel Conrad,
representing the Irem Shrine Cir-
cus, were on hand for the elephant
weighing. Conrad, the circus
chairman and a member at Irem
for 27 years, said tickets sales
have been good for the event.
Were looking forward to a
great week, Conrad said. An-
dthese elephants are just a part
of a great show.
Arthurs said Viola, Kelley and
Nina will welcome riders at ev-
ery performance. They enjoy
giving their young fans a ride
around the Big Top, he said.
Chris and Bobbi Jo Roe of Shick-
shinny said they hope to take
their three children Maggie,
3, and 2-year-old twins Abbey
and Sami, to the circus. They
stood in awe of the elephants as
several people threw carrots to
them after their weigh-in.
Jim McIntire of Forty Fort
brought his granddaughter,
Abby Konkus, 2, to see the el-
ephants. She threw a big car-
rot and stepped back as Viola
snatched it off the pavement.
Wow, they sure are big, Mc-
Intire said.

tempt to take a new approach.
When advised Thursday
of the operation planned for
Friday by his narcotics unit
lieutenant, DeAndrea called
Luzerne County District At-
torney Stefanie Salavantis and
requested her view on the city
condemning the Pine Tree
Road house because its un-
safe for human cohabitation,
its a danger to the communi-
ty, DeAndrea said.
Pointing to cash, heroin,
safes, smoking apparatus, bag-
gies and drug scales allegedly
seized from the house, and dis-
played on a table in city coun-
cil chambers, DeAndrea said
the items clearly show that
this house is a drug house and
doesnt belong in our city.
DeAndrea said Salavantis is
in 100 percent support of this
approach based on the citys
ordinance.
So, with Salavantis appar-
ent blessing, the condemned
sign was placed on the house
after the raid, DeAndrea said.
No one is allowed to go back
in that house, he said. Mon-
day, well start the paperwork
through the nuisance property
(ordinance) to see that that
house is never returned to the
owner. If it is returned to the
owner, it will be because we
lost in court.
The homeowner, 28-year-
old Tiffany Davis, was among
those in the house arrested.
The others were her brother,
James Davis Jr., 21, of 11 Cafe
Court, Hazle
Township; and
Nelson Rivera,
19, of 401 E.
Diamond Ave.,
Hazleton.
As police
were prepar-
ing to serve
the warrant,
they witnessed a controlled
drug buy occur outside the
house, DeAndrea said. Nelson
Rivera Rincon, 20, of 401 E. Di-
amond Ave., and William Gue-
vara, 47, who gave an address
of 134 S. Pine Tree Road at his
arraignment, were arrested af-
ter that alleged incident.
Holding up two pieces of pa-
per, DeAndrea said its impor-
tant to note that Crime watch-
es work. The sheets contained
license plate numbers from
vehicles that frequented the
home on Pine Tree Road
along with times, dates, ve-
hicle descriptions and whether
a porch light was on or off, ap-
parently signaling whether the
house was open for business.
Its sad that wed be able to
get two sheets worth of (in-
formation) in a period of four
days, said DeAndrea. It just
shows the magnitude of some
of these drug houses.
In conjunction with the At-
torney Generals Ofce, police
and the Luzerne County Drug
Task Force used the lists from
crime watch and other infor-
mation to obtain a search war-
rant, he said.
DeAndrea noted that partici-
pation from task force mem-
bers of the Wright Township
and West Hazleton police de-
partments on duty Friday, and
District Judge Joseph Zola con-
ducting the arraignments on
a day his ofce was closed so
the suspects would not have to
be transported to a duty mag-
istrates ofce, saved the city
overtime expenses.
And my thanks the mayor
for allowing me to be this
unique and out-of-the-box with
a new way to combat an old
problem and hopefully con-
demn these houses and start
to send a message, DeAndrea
said.
Another message DeAndrea
wants to get across: To all of
these people, we know who
you are, he said, again holding
up the list of vehicle informa-
tion from crime watch.
And to all of these houses
that youre frequenting, Pine
Tree Road is not the last
house were going to condemn.
This is our new modus ope-
randi. This is how were going
to do business in the city to try
and take it back, DeAndrea
said.
Mayor Joe Yannuzzi said hes
pleased with the police depart-
ments work and that these
crime watch personnel and citi-
zens of Hazleton have been on
the watch and accumulated all
these vehicle numbers. Its a
great thing for the crime watch
and its time more people step
forward and give our police the
information they need to make
arrests.
Ofcials agreed it was ironic
that a neighborhood watch
sign was posted on a sign less
than 50 feet from the house
raided on Friday.
I think they ignored the sign
because they didnt see the par-
ticipation of crime watch, they
didnt hear much about it,
Yannuzzi said. Now that this
is out there, I think theyll pay
attention to those signs.

Pittsburgh Penguins head coach Dan
Bylsma has an abundance of talent to
work with since the trade for Jarome
Inginla.
Chemistry the
new buzzword
in Pittsburgh
PITTSBURGH Dan Bylsmas
trendy eyeglasses and perfectly tailored
suits are part of his understated profes-
sional look.
Over the next month, the Pittsburgh
Penguins coach might want to consider
trading them in for a pair of scientist
goggles and a white
lab coat as he tries
to gure out how
to mix together the
right elements to
lead the franchise
to its fourth Stanley
Cup.
And make no mis-
take, anything short
of a parade in late
June through the
City of Champions
will be considered a
disappointment af-
ter general manager
Ray Shero pulled off
his own personal
hat trick earlier this
week.
Over the span of four days the Pen-
guins acquired forwards Jarome Iginla
and Brenden Morrow along with defen-
seman Doug Murray without touching
the roster that has now ripped off 14
straight victories and counting.
Now Bylsma has to nd a way to up-
grade something that hardly looks like
it needs one.
During a press conference hours after
landing Iginla, a six-time All-Star, Byls-
ma used the word chemistry more
than 10 times while trying to describe
ways to create the elusive ingredient re-
quired to make a deep playoff run.
Theres a clear message, a clear fo-
With the addition of Jarome Iginla,
the Penguins have plenty of stars to
mesh into a team.

WILKES-BARRE TWP. The
Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Pen-
guins penalty kill did more than
earn a point against the Provi-
dence Bruins on Friday.
They also got their coach out
of a jam.
With the score tied 2-2 mid-
way through the third period,
head coach John Hynes took
exception to a kneeing call on
Dylan Reese and let the of-
cials know. Subsequently, the
Penguins bench received an
unsportsmanlike conduct and
the Bruins got two minutes of a
ve-on-three advantage.
The Penguins were able to kill
off the power play, and although
they lost 3-2 in a shootout,
managed to carry the tie long
enough to earn a valuable point
with nine games remaining. The
Penguins have 74 points on the
season, and with a Hershey loss
they give themselves a three-
point cushion above the Bears,
who are clinging to the nal
playoff spot.
Dylan Reese had two power-
play goals in the game his rst
multi-goal game since Jan. 15,
2010 when he was with Syra-
cuse.

ARLINGTON, Texas Trey Burke
shook off one of his worst starts with
the best shot of his life.
Burke bounced back from a scoreless
rst half to score 23 points, including
a long, never-a-doubt 3-pointer in the
nal seconds of regulation, and Michi-
gan rallied to beat Kansas 87-85 in
overtime in the South Regional semi-
nals Friday night.
The fourth-seeded Wolverines wiped
out a 10-point Kansas lead in the last
3 minutes of regulation, and Burke
gave them their rst lead since early in
the game with another long 3 to open
Michigans scoring in overtime.
This guy was a champ all the way
through it, Michigan coach John

Imperial Count invades The Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs this evening with one main objective, thats
take down the frst $25,000 Preferred Trot of the season. The fve-year oldAngus Hall stallion was a model
of consistency in 2012, winning nine times in twenty-nine starts, while bankrolling $177,314 during his
campaign. Trained by Nifty Norman and reined by Tyler Buter, look for this well bred trotter to come off
what should be a fairly quick pace tonight (with speed to his inside and out) and storm home for a victory
in that third race featured event.
Keep in mind no racing this Sunday due to Easter. Pocono will resume live racing on Tuesday.

Meyers standouts Ryan Krawczeniuk and Rasheed Moore
named Co-Players of the Year
A COUPLE OF WINNERS
By JOHN ERZAR | jerzar@timesleader.com
T
he Dynamic Duo is no more. Its time for Meyers
Ryan Krawczeniuk and Rasheed Moore, whove
played
basketball together since 6-year-olds, to go their separate
ways.
But not before earning one more achievement Times
Leader Co-Player of the Year honors. Their contribu-
tions to Meyers success this season, and the past four
for that matter, made it too difcult to choose one over
the other.
The bond that started as teammates
in the youth leagues at the Wyoming
Valley CYC is obvious. Moore said he
considers Krawczeniuk more like a
brother than a friend. Krawczeniuk gave
a sibling-like answer to why theyll play
at rival PSAC colleges.
Because hes mean to me, joked the
sharp-shooting guard.
Not quite.
Its just the way things happened,
Moore added.
They came close to playing together
once again in college. Instead, theyll
be adversaries. Krawczeniuk will play
at Manseld University and Moore will
join East Stroudsburg. The two Division
II programs played in the PSAC quarter-
nals this season.
Get to play each other, Krawczeniuk
said. It will be fun. Were both really
competitive, but at the end of the day
well be friends.
Were going to play against each
other which is going to be a weird
experience because we were always on
the same team, Moore said. Its going
to be different, but you just have to look
forward to it.
Unlike the original Dynamic Duo,
there was no clear-cut Batman or Robin
with Krawczeniuk and Moore. At times,
Krawczeniuk would be at the fore-
front. At others, Moore would. And on
many occasions, they would share the
spotlight with Krawczeniuk doing his
damage mostly on the perimeter and
the 6-foot-6 Moore doing his destruction
inside.
We have a bond that not many can
compete with around here, Krawcze-
niuk said. Obviously, we know each
others game inside and out.
We started playing together at a
young age and we just built chemistry
from then on, Moore said. We started
off not knowing the game and learning
it together.
And excelling at it as well. Krawcze-
niuk entered his high school years with
a lot of fanfare and became a starter as
a freshman. Moore also broke into the
starting lineup his freshman season and
developed into a dominant inside player.
As seniors, Krawczeniuk led Division
III of the Wyoming Valley Conference
with a 19.0 scoring average. Moore
was second with 16.5 points per game.
Moore led the Mohawks with 239
rebounds and 86 blocked shots; Krawc-
zeniuk led the team with 111 assists and
84 steals.
In their four seasons together, Meyers
compiled an 89-16 overall record that
included a 56-game WVC regular-season
winning streak that will be handed
over to the new batch of Mohawks next
season. Meyers also won four WVC
divisional titles, a District 2 Class 2A
championship and advanced to the PIAA
state playoffs three times.
Alas, the ride had to stop some time
and it did in the rst round of the state
playoffs. A key injury and lack of depth
wore on Meyers as it lost 57-47 to Trin-
ity.
It took a few days before Moore could
come to grips with the loss.
I was upset because Ill never be able
to put a Meyers uniform on again or go
to the state nal, Moore said. Looking
back, there is nothing you can really do.
I had a great four years and now its time
to move to the next step and have the
next door open to my career.
But it seems unlikely either will ever
lock this last door for good.
It was unbelievable, Krawczeniuk
said. Weve played together since 6
years old in CYC basketball. It was a
pleasure to play with him my entire
life.

cus of bringing that (team) to-
gether, Bylsma said.
Pittsburgh is hardly the rst
team to make major roster
changes before the trade dead-
line. Hockey history is littered
with franchises that went all
in to capture a title.
The 1994 New York Rangers
brought in Cup-savvy veterans
Stephane Matteau, Glenn An-
derson, Brian Noonan and Craig
MacTavish late in the season,
one that ended with the Rangers
winning it all for the rst time in
54 years.
It helped that the hierarchy in
the dressing room was already
well established. Captain Mark
Messier ran the show and ev-
eryone else fell in line. Though
Pittsburgh superstar Sidney
Crosby and reigning MVP Ev-
geni Malkin go about their busi-
ness for the Penguins a little
differently than the outspoken
Messier, that doesnt mean
theres any question about who
the team turns to when it mat-
ters.
Winnipeg Jets coach Claude
Noel got an up-close look during
Pittsburghs 4-0 romp on Thurs-
day night, a victory that pulled
the Penguins withinthree games
of the NHL record for consecu-
tive wins. Crosby collected two
assists including a ridiculous
no-look backhand feed to Chris
Kuntiz for the games rst goal
and Malkin scored in his re-
turn after missing nine games
with an upper-body injury.
Theyre playing with a lot of
will and you can see who drives
that team, Noel said. When
that happens you watch that
team go.
Noel, however, was quick to
add the Penguins can be beat-
en even though its been more
than a month since anyone has
been able to do it for a full three
periods.
Pittsburghs biggest enemy
other than the pressure that
comes with being anointed the
Stanley Cup favorite may be
itself. Crosby knows for every
1994 New York Rangers theres
a team that loaded up and noth-
ing happened.
The Washington Capitals
were sailing to the Presidents
Trophy three years ago when
they added four players
namely defensemen Joe Corvo
and Milan Jurcina and were
bounced in the rst round by
Montreal.
The St. Louis Blues sent three
players and two draft picks to
the Los Angeles Kings in 1996
for Wayne Gretzky. The Great
One helped the Blues to the
playoffs, but they lost to Detroit
in the Western Conference semi-
nals and Gretzky was out the
door for New York less than two
months later.
Crosby, who considers him-
self a bit of a hockey historian,
is well aware of the pitfalls that
lay ahead.

Ohio States Deshaun Thomas smiles during a news conference in Los Angeles on Friday.
Ohio State plays Wichita State in the West Regional nal of the NCAA mens basketball tour-
nament today.
Shockers stand in Buckeyes way
LOS ANGELES During
Ohio States journey to the
Final Four last season, Aaron
Craft learned the importance
of focusing on the next 40 min-
utes, not the three-week trip.
So Craft didnt realize the
highest seeds in the West
Regional were dropping like
dominoes until earlier this
week. He purposely didnt
learn much about ninth-seeded
Wichita State until Thursday
night, when the powerful Buck-
eyes found out theyre facing
the unheralded Shockers on
Saturday for another ticket to
the Final Four.
I think that really helped a
lot just getting caught up
in the moment and thinking
about where you are and what
you need to do to get out,
Ohio States star point guard
said. We watch all the games.
Obviously were basketball
fans, but I kept saying, Where
is this team? Which bracket is
this in? What is that? It wasnt
until after we played Iowa State
that I realized our bracket was
being destroyed number-wise,
and really realizing how tough
every team was.
Crafts point is a theme
echoed on both sides of Sta-
ples Center on Friday during
workouts for the nal game
in a regional that emphasized
the parity throughout college
basketball when six of the top
eight seeds lost on the rst
weekend.
Anybody who tries to paint
this matchup as David facing
down Goliath will get polite
disagreement from the sup-
posed big guy and the alleged
little guy alike.
Thats just not how college
basketball works anymore, ac-
cording to both Craft and Wich-
ita State coach Gregg Marshall.
Neither team has any doubt
Wichita State (29-8) belongs on
the same court with the mighty
Buckeyes (29-7) for a chance to
go to Atlanta.
We have to go out there and
play our hearts out, Wichita
States Cleanthony Early said.
So regardless if their facilities
are a little bit bigger than ours,
theyve got to lace up their
shoes just like us.
Sure, the Shockers cant
match Ohio States nancial
resources or alumni base.
Theyve got everything else
necessary to play with the
Buckeyes for those 40 minutes
and even pull off one more
surprise in their charmed run
through March.
What I love is the fact theyre
not really bouncing off the wall,
Marshall said of his Shockers.
They seem to be legitimately
unsatised thus far. We know
weve got a great opponent and
a tremendous challenge, but
at the same time, were in that
Elite Eight game. We have an
opportunity, and our best is go-
ing to be hard to beat.
Wichita State is making its
rst regional nals appearance
since 1981, looking for a spot
in its rst Final Four since the
schools only previous trip in
1965.

WASHINGTON There is
only one surprise involving the
old reliable 2-3 zone defense
that Syracuse uses just about
all the time. Opponents know
they are going to face it, which
usually does not help. The sur-
prise is that more teams dont
try to use it.
Its hard, said Michael Cart-
er-Williams, the sophomore
guard who had a career-high 24
points for the Orange as it to-
tally discombobulated Indiana
with its zone in a 61-50 Sweet
16 win Thursday night. People
think its a lazy defense, but it
has a lot of principles to it. Its
tough to play, and I think some
teams go to it when they give
up penetration, but to start in a
zone and keep going with it, its
very tough.
It is not a comfort zone for
teams that must face it, as Mar-
quette will do on Saturday in an
All-Big East NCAA Tournament
Elite Eight game. It is not all
that easy for the team learning
and executing it, either. And
that is why more teams do not
use it (and why Indiana seemed
so unprepared, because the 2-3
seemed so foreign).
You have to commit to it
and most coaches have played
man-to-man. Thats what they
commit to, thats what they
do, said Syracuse coach Jim
Boeheim, who has become col-
lege basketballs zone-master.
That would be a major, major
philosophical position You
cant practice enough on both.
The only team thats ever
been good at both was (George-
town under) John Thompson
Sr., or Big John, whatever, be-
cause he practiced ve hours a
day on defense, Boeheim said,
adding that several Big East
teams, including Marquette,
have started going zone occa-
sionally. Beat us a couple of
games this year.
Still, there is something un-
natural about guarding territo-
ry instead of a player. In pickup
games or in AAU games, for
instance, no one goes into a
zone. First off, they dont play
defense on the playground or
AAU, Boeheim said, deadpan.
Marquette forward Trent
Lockett said his team started
playing zone this season be-
cause of how effective oppo-
nents were when they tried
it against Marquette. People
sometimes think you just stand
there the whole game, he said.
But to be successful playing a
zone, you have to be active and
you have to have energy. One of
the big things is you have to re-
bound out of a zone, and Syra-
cuse does a good job of that.
Syracuses 2-3 is successful
because the teamworks hard at
it and has tall, rangy players on
both the front and back lines.
I feel other teams dont have
the length we have, forward
James Southerland said. Its
got us really far, and it never
failed us.
Syracuses matchup zone a nightmare

the basket and we just never got
him slowed down.
The 12th-seeded Ducks (28-9)
at least made a game of it late.
After Louisville went up 66-48
with 9:01 left, Oregon made six
straight eld goals to close to 70-
64 the closest anyones been
to the Cardinals in a couple of
weeks.
But Kevin Ware scored on a
layup and Chane Behanan threw
down a monstrous dunk to put
the game out of reach. Still, Or-
egon is only the second team
to be within single digits at the
buzzer during Louisvilles run.
Louisville (32-5) moves on
to play the winner of Michigan
State-Duke on Sunday, hoping to
advance to the Final Four for the
second straight year.
E.J. Singlers 15 points led ve
Ducks in double gures, and the
Ducks had only 12 turnovers
one fewer than the Cardinals.
But Oregon could never recover
from its poor rst half, when
the Ducks were plagued by foul
trouble Johnathan Loyd had
three before halftime and an
off night by Damyean Dotson.
The freshman was huge in Or-
egons victory over Saint Louis,
scoring a career-high 23. But he
was 0 for 6 in the rst half, and
didnt make a eld goal until
midway through the second. He
nished with 12 points on 5-of-
14 shooting.
It wasnt there in the rst
half, Arsalan Kazemi said.
The Cardinals were barely
tested in either of their rst two
games, beating North Carolina
A&T by 31 and Colorado State
by 26. They set an NCAA record
with 20 steals against A&T, out-
rebounded one of the countrys
best rebounding teams in Colo-
rado State and left both teams
with ugly shooting lines.
But the Cardinals were tested
many times Friday night.
Peyton Siva spent the last
15:19 of the rst half on the
bench after picking up his sec-
ond foul. But even without
their oor general, the Cardi-
nals didnt miss a beat thanks to
Smith. He hit a 3 to spark a 14-3
run that put Louisville up 24-8,
and the game seemed to be all
but over.
Smith had seven points dur-
ing the spurt. When he nished
the run with a layup, it was Russ
Smith 9, Oregon 8.
The Ducks werent going
away that easily, though. Af-
ter Luke Hancocks 3 capped a
12-2 run that put Louisville up
66-48, the Ducks would make
six straight eld goals. When
Dotson knocked down a jumper
with 5:12 remaining, it got Ore-
gon within six, the closest it had
been since early in the rst half.
Closest anyone had been to
Louisville since the Big East
tournament, actually.
But part of what makes the
Cardinals so imposing is their
maturity and their options,
which seem endless. Instead
of panicking, the Cardinals re-
grouped and regained control,
and the Ducks never threatened
again.
LOUISVILLE
Continued from Page 1B
Theyll certainly remember
this one in Ann Arbor for a while.
The Wolverines (29-7) reached
the regional nals for the rst
time since the Fab Five era 19
years ago, the last time they
were in the round of 16.
Ben McLemore had 20 points
to lead the Jayhawks (31-6), who
looked to be on their way to a
third straight regional nal be-
fore Michigans improbable rally.
Instead, they became the third
No. 1 seed to fall in this tourna-
ment, joining Gonzaga and Indi-
ana.
The Wolverines were down
ve when Tim Hardaway Jr.
missed a 3-pointer with 35 sec-
onds left, but Glenn Robinson III
won a scramble for the ball and
hit a reverse layup to force Kan-
sas to win the game at the free
throw line.
The Jayhawks couldnt do it.
Burkes tying shot he pulled
up from well beyond the arc just
right of key came with 4.2
seconds left after Elijah Johnson
missed a free throw moments af-
ter hitting two to keep the Kan-
sas lead at ve. Burke had scored
on a layup to get Michigan back
to within three.
Im so proud of my team be-
cause a lot of people say were
young, but we stuck with it to-
night, Burke said. Im just so
happy right now. We stayed to-
gether and we got the win.
The lead changed hands ve
times in overtime the rst OT
game of the tournament the
last when Mitch McGary, who
led Michigan with 25 points and
14 rebounds, hit a short jumper
with Johnson in his face to put
Michigan ahead for good 83-82.
The Jayhawks got a stop and
had about 9 seconds to tie or
win, but a jumbled possession
ended with Naadir Tharpe miss-
ing a running jumper at the
buzzer.
Well, this will go down as
one of the toughest games obvi-
ously that weve been a part of
and Ive been a part of, Kansas
coach Bill Self said.
The Wolverines wiped out a
10-point Kansas lead on a 14-4
run in the nal 2:52 of regula-
tion. Burke had eight points,
including two 3-pointers, in the
stretch.
Burke gave Michigan its rst
lead since early in the game with
his long 3-pointer to make it 79-
78 early in overtime. He hit a
jumper on the next possession
as well.
Burke was scoreless in the rst
half for the Wolverines, then got
his team going by scoring eight
straight points early in the sec-
ond half to momentarily cut the
decit to two.
MICHIGAN

alty killers who saved the day,
killing off seven Providence
power plays including the ve-
on-three that resulted from the
bench minor.
That was me, Hynes said of
the penalty. Its unacceptable.
Whether its a player or a coach,
that cant happen.
Still, after watching his team
limit the Bruins to four shots on
the ensuing power play, Hynes
was able to nd a little humor in
the situation.
Im getting ned by the team,
I know that, he said.
After a scoreless overtime, the
Bruins needed an eight-round
shootout to earn the second
point and the win, outscoring
the Penguins 2-1.
The fact that the game went
into the extra stages wasnt a
surprise considering how even-
ly matched they were through
regulation and overtime. Both
teams red 28 shots on net and
Brad Thiessen and Providences
Niklas Svedberg were both stel-
lar in net.
But for the Penguins, the pen-
alty kill was the difference.
Special teams got us a point
tonight, said center and pen-
alty killer Warren Peters. Spe-
cial teams gave us a chance to
say we deserved two points, but
well take a big point this time of
year.
The point allows the Penguins
to move into a tie with Connecti-
cut for the sixth spot in the con-
ference. Connecticut holds the
tie-breaker with two more regu-
lation wins than the Penguins.
Playoff positioning is on the
Penguins minds, and Peters said
he could hear the crowd cheer
when the Hershey loss was an-
nounced during the game. He
also alluded to the fact that his
team could face Providence in
the postseason.
Thats a good team we were
playing against. Its like playing
ourselves out there, he said.
Its a preview of things we can
expect to come down the stretch
and in the playoffs.

GIANTS
Buster Posey lands
$167M, 9-year deal
SAN FRANCISCO Buster Posey is
the San Francisco Giants new fran-
chise man.
The Giants rewarded NL MVP and
batting champion with a $167 million,
nine-year contract Friday, a deal that
includes a club option for 2022 that
could raise the value to $186 million
over a decade.
The agreement is the longest for
a catcher and the largest in Giants
history, surpassing Matt Cains $127.5
million, six-year contract signed before
the start of last season.
Posey had been due to make $8
million this year. He instead gets a $7
million signing bonus, with $5 million
payable Oct. 15 and the remainder Jan.
15, and his 2013 salary is reduced to $3
million.
He will make $10.5 million in 2014,
$16.5 million in 2015, $20 million in
2016 and $21.4 million in each of the
following ve seasons. The Giants op-
tion is for $22 million with a $3 million
buyout.
ROyALS
Miguel Tejada makes
opening-day roster
SURPRISE, Ariz. Former AL MVP
Miguel Tejada has made the Kansas
City Royals opening-day roster as a
utility inelder.
Manager Ned yost made the an-
nouncement Friday before the Royals
exhibition game against Cleveland.
The 38-year-old is a six-time All-Star
who last played in the major leagues in
2011 with the San Francisco Giants. He
hit .239 with four homers and 26 RBIs
in 322 at-bats.
He spent last season with Baltimores
Triple-A team at Norfolk, batting .259
with no home runs and 18 RBIs in
135 at-bats before his release on June
25. The 2002 AL MVP with Oakland,
Tejada has a .285 career average with
304 homers and 1,282 RBIs.
Tejada began Friday with a .353
average and three RBIs in 34 spring
training at-bats.
yANKEES
Teixeira hopes to get
brace off Monday
WASHINGTON New york
yankees rst baseman Mark Teixeira
hopes to get the protective brace on his
injured right wrist removed Monday.
Speaking before New yorks exhibi-
tion game at the Washington Nationals
on Friday, Teixeira said his goal is to
rejoin the yankees as soon as May 1.
He will start the season on the
disabled list because of a partially torn
tendon sheath in his right wrist.
Like a pitcher coming back from
Tommy John (elbow surgery), throw-
ing through pain isnt a good idea,
Teixeira said. So I just have to be
smart with it.
DIAMONDBACKS
Source: Goldschmidt
near $32M deal
PHOENIX First baseman Paul
Goldschmidt and the Arizona Dia-
mondbacks are close to agreement on
a $32 million, ve-year contract that
would run from 2014-18, according to a
person familiar with the negotiations.
The deal would include a $14.5
million team option for 2019 with a $2
million buyout, the person said Friday,
speaking on condition of anonymity
because the agreement had not been
nalized.
As a rookie last year, Goldschmidt
hit .286 with 43 doubles, 20 home runs
and 82 RBIs. He agreed in February to
a deal paying $500,000 if he is in the
majors this season
DODGERS
Crawford delivers
against Class-A team
RANCHO CUCAMONGA, Calif.
The Dodgers were one out away from
dropping an exhibition game to their
Class-A afliate despite the presence
of ve major leaguers in their starting
lineup, another on the mound and Hall
of Famer Tommy Lasorda serving as
manager Thursday night.
In what the Dodgers surely hope is a
sign of things to come, Carl Crawford
got them back in the game.
Crawford delivered a game-tying,
two-run single with two outs in the
nal inning, but the Dodgers lost to
the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes 4-3 in
seven innings.
Crawford, acquired from Boston last
summer and who underwent Tommy
John surgery last August, began the
night 0-for-3 with two strikeouts. With
the Dodgers trailing 3-1 in the top of
the seventh and the bases loaded with
two outs, Crawford lined a sharp single
to left eld to extend the game.

Wright calls
Santana injury
disheartening
By LAUREL PFAHLER
Associated Press
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. David
Wright summed up the mood of the
New york Mets after learning Johan
Santana is likely to miss his second sea-
son in three years because of a shoulder
injury.
The New york Mets captain spoke
with Santana on Thursday night after
the team announced the two-time Cy
young Award winner probably has re-
torn the anterior capsule in his pitching
shoulder.
Hes just kind of in a bit of shock. I
dont think anyone was expecting this,
Wright said Friday. For everyone, its
kind of shocking. Its
disheartening.
Coming off four
straight losing sea-
sons, four consecu-
tive years of declining
home attendance and
the offseason trade of
R.A. Dickey to Toronto
for prospects, the Mets
dont appear to be very
promising heading
into Mondays opener
against San Diego.
Santana had surgery
Sept. 14, 2010, and
did not make it back
to the major leagues
until last April 5. The
34-year-old left-hander
hasnt pitched in any
exhibition games dur-
ing spring training
because of arm weak-
ness, and he threw his
last bullpen session in
early March without
the teams permission.
He had been throwing off at ground.
I was fairly concerned early on,
pitching coach Dan Warthen said. I
knew he hadnt thrown a whole lot,
hadnt worked out a whole lot. you
thought, All right, this is going to take a
lot longer than a normal spring training
would be. But as it went on, it became
more of a concern.
Santana went 6-9 with a 4.85 ERA in
21 starts last year and threwthe rst no-
hitter in team history June 1 against St.
Louis.
Santana threw a career-high 134
pitches that night in his second con-
secutive shutout, but was 3-7 with an
8.27 ERA after that, including 0-5 with
a 15.63 ERA after throwing eight score-
less innings against the Los Angeles
Dodgers on June 30.
He went on the disabled list for three
weeks because of a sprained ankle and
didnt pitch after Aug. 17 because of
lower back inammation.
Warthen said the injury is not a by-
product of the no-hitter. Warthen said
Santana never looked like his past self
during spring training.
He had trouble getting his arm in
the throwing position, and when he -
nally felt like that was pretty good, the
ball didnt come out like it normally did
from Johans arm, Warthen said.
New york owes Santana $31 million
more as part of the $137.5 million, six-
year deal he signed before the 2008 sea-
son, and general manager Sandy Alder-
son said the remainder of the contract is
not covered by insurance.
Reliever Tim Byrdak underwent simi-
I dont
think
anyone was
expecting
this. For
everyone,
its kind
of shock-
ing. Its
dishearten-
ing.
David Wright
on Johan
Santanas injury
Verlander, Tigers agree to $180M, 7-year deal
LAKELAND, Fla. For Justin Ver-
lander, $180 million was enough. No
need to wait two seasons, become a
free agent and nd out how much base-
balls biggest spenders would offer.
I wondered what it would be like to
test free agency, but the pull of Detroit
was too much, the Tigers ace said Fri-
day after agreeing to a seven-year con-
tract, the richest deal for a pitcher in
baseball history. Once spring training
started I knew I wanted to stay.
Verlanders deal broke the record for
pitchers set just a month earlier when
Seattles Felix Hernandez agreed to a
$175 million, seven-year contract.
Its a very exciting day, Tigers
President Dave Dombrowski said. Its
a big day for us. Hes as ne a pitcher as
there is in baseball. His record speaks
for itself. He can be one of the great-
est, if not the greatest pitcher in Tiger
history.
The 2011 AL MVP and Cy young
Award winner had been signed through
2014 under an $80 million, ve-year
contract paying him$20 million in each
of the next two seasons.
The new deal keeps those salaries
and adds $140 million in guaranteed
money: $28 million each season from
2015-19. It includes a $22 million op-
tion for 2020 that would become guar-
anteed if he nishes among the top
ve in 2019 Cy young voting. The deal
could be worth $202 million over eight
seasons.
The city of Detroit is committed to
winning, he said. Im so excited to
be playing in Detroit. I was never shy
about saying I wanted to stay in De-
troit. Its tough to put into words how
much I love Detroit. We have the best
fans in baseball.
Considered an elite pitcher since
winning the 2006 AL Rookie of the year
award, the 30-year-old right-hander is
124-65 with a 3.40 ERA in eight ma-
jor league seasons with two no-hitters.
He was 24-5 two years ago, becoming
the rst starting pitcher to sweep Cy
young and MVP since Bostons Roger
Clemens in 1986.
Verlander also has compiled a 19-win
season and two each of 18 and 17. He
led the big leagues in strikeouts and in-
nings in 2009, 2011 and 2012.
He is never going to be content,
Dombrowski said. He wants a World
Series, and he wants the Hall of Fame.
Verlanders teammates were pleased
for their star pitcher.
First, he deserves it because it
means a lot for all of us, pitcher Max
Scherzer said.

New York Yankees catcher Francisco Cervelli, left, smiles with relief pitcher Mariano Rivera after an exhibition
baseball game against the Washington Nationals at Nationals Park Friday in Washington.
Pettitte avoids broken bat in Yanks win
WASHINGTON Andy Pettitte
ducked to avoid a twirling piece of
broken bat during his six-inning stint,
Kevin youkilis hit his sixth homer of
spring training and the New york yan-
kees wrapped up their major league
exhibition schedule by beating the
Washington Nationals 4-2 Friday.
Pettitte put his left hand on his cap
as he kneeled to avoid the jagged bat
when Wilson Ramos grounded out
in the third inning. The lefty wasnt
shaken, and allowed two runs one
earned and ve hits. He struck
out six and didnt walk a batter while
throwing 81 pitches, 57 for strikes.
Washingtons unearned run came in
the fourth after third baseman youki-
lis throwing error.
New york scored four runs in the
top of that inning off Nationals starter
Jordan Zimmermann.
The highlights were youkilis
leadoff drive into the visiting bullpen
and Eduardo Nunezs two-run single.
Zimmermann lasted 3 1-3 innings,
allowing four runs and seven hits.
A crowd of 38,161 welcomed the
reigning NL East champion Nationals
back from their Grapefruit League
stint at Viera, Fla.
It was Washingtons rst game at
Nationals Park since the club blew
a ninth-inning lead in the division
series nale against St. Louis. The
pitcher who let Game 5 get away,
Drew Storen, was greeted with ap-
plause and cheers when he came on
for the ninth Friday.
yankees closer Mariano Rivera
then nished the game with a 1-2-3
ninth. A few hours earlier, before the
rst pitch, the 43-year-old Rivera was
honored by the Nationals.
The career saves leader announced
three weeks ago that he will retire
after this season. He was presented
Friday with a signed No. 42 his
number Nationals jersey by Wash-
ington reliever Rafael Soriano, who
took over as New yorks closer last
year when Rivera got injured.
The Nationals are done with exhibi-
tion games with a 14-18-2 record and
get to prepare for their opener on
Monday, at home against the Miami
Marlins. Stephen Strasburg will start
for Washington.
The yankees, 14-18-1 during a
spring training that included injuries
to sluggers Curtis Granderson and
Mark Teixeira, will face Army at West
Point on Saturday, then open up at
home against the Boston Red Sox on
Monday.
Mets 7, Cardinals 2
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. David
Wright made his rst appearance in
a big league game since sustaining a
rib injury during the World Baseball
Classic, going 0 for 3 and playing ve
innings for the New york Mets in a
victory over the St. Louis Cardinals.
Ive said all along Id be ready,
Wright said of opening day. Of
course, I would have liked to have
gotten a few more at-bats, but I dont
have that luxury right now, so Ill
make the most out of what I can to-
morrow and Ill be ready to go. I feel
pretty good considering the circum-
stances.
Wright was a late scratch from
the United States game against the
Dominican Republic on march 14. He
received a cortisone shot in his left
side a day later.
Mets manager Terry Collins said
Wright returning to the lineup was
important for the team.
Hes a big piece of our lineup, if
not the biggest piece of our lineup,
Collins said. To get him out there
changes the whole look of the team.
It changes the look of the lineup, and
we dont have to ask some guys to
pick up a big load because hell do
that.
Ruben Tejada hit a two-run double
and scored on Collin Cowgills two-
run homer in the bottom of the
fourth. Cowgill was pinch hitting
for Matt Harvey, who gave up three
hits in four shutout innings with two
walks and four strikeouts.
Cardinals pitcher Jake Westbrook
allowed four runs on ve hits with
four walks and two strikeouts in four
innings. Center elder Jon Jay went
2 for 2.
Tigers 8, Rays 3
LAKELAND, Fla. Hours after
rotation-mate Justin Verlander got
the biggest contract ever given to a
pitcher, Max Scherzer extended his
dominant spring training with six
innings of one-hit ball as the Detroit
Tigers beat the Tampa Bay Rays.
Verlander agreed to a $180 million,
seven-year contract, topping Felix
Hernandez for the richest deal for a
pitcher in baseball history.
Scherzer, the Tigers No. 5 starter,
nishes the spring with a 0.57 ERA.
He struck out nine and has only
allowed one earned run over 25 1-3
innings.
Rays starter Jeremy Hellickson
allowed eight runs six earned in
three innings. He yielded homers to
Prince Fielder, Alex Avila and Omar
Infante.
Miguel Cabrera had two doubles
for the Tigers and Austin Jackson
tripled.
Sam Fuld homered off Octavio
Dotel for the Rays.
Twins 8, Red Sox 3
FORT MyERS, Fla. Minnesotas
Cole DeVries came out after three
hitless innings due to a sore right
forearm as the Twins beat the Boston
Red Sox.
DeVries, scheduled to make his rst
start of the season on April 6 at Balti-
more, allowed one earned run during
17 innings in spring training and held
batters to a .071 average.
Pitching coach Rick Anderson said
it appeared the soreness was a muscle
issue.
Red Sox starter Ryan Dempster
gave up three hits and four walks in
four innings with four strikeouts.
Royals 5, Indians 1
SURPRISE, Ariz. Alex Gordon,
Jeff Francoeur, Elliot Johnson and
Roman Hernandez homered as the
Kansas City Royals beat Cleveland to
wrap up the most successful spring
training in franchise history.
The Royals nished 25-7-2, the best
exhibition record in the majors.
Gordon hit Ubaldo Jimenezs sec-
ond pitch over the center-eld fence
for his eighth home run. Gordon
nished with a .438 batting average.
Francoeur and Johnson homered
in the fth off Jimenez. The Indians
right-hander gave up just three hits,
but all were home runs.

Qualier in lead as McIlroy barely makes cut
HUMBLE, Texas Steve
Wheatcroft hates going to Mon-
day qualiers. He was reminded
Friday why they can be worth it.
Wheatcroft, who narrowly
qualied for the Houston Open
at the start of the week, ran off
three straight birdies early in
his round and kept bogeys off
his card for a second straight
5-under 67. That gave him a
one-shot lead over D.A. Points
and Jason Kokrak going into the
weekend at Redstone Golf Club.
Rory McIlroy also will be
around for two more days, but
just barely.
In only his 10th full round
of the year, McIlroy walked
onto the seventh green his
16th hole of the day and
saw that he was tied for 77th.
He two-putted from 85 feet on
the fringe for birdie on his next
hole, and then safely found the
green at the par-3 ninth for a 70.
By the end of the day, McIlroy
made the cut on the number.
It a weekend where I can
have a couple more rounds and
try and get condence in what
Im doing, McIlroy.
His big surprise came later.
McIlroy, feeling as though he
needs more rounds to get ready
for the Masters, decided to en-
ter the Texas Open next week.
Phil Mickelson also made
the cut on the number after a
bogey on the last hole for a 71.
Mickelson, who has played the
Masters with two drivers in the
bag, decided to play Redstone
on Friday with two 3-woods in
the bag, though one of them is
so strong it acts like a driver.
If I can play like I did the
back nine, Im going to give
myself a lot of birdie chances,
Mickelson said.
Wheatcroft cant bank on any-
thing.
Not only does he have no
status on the PGA Tour, he has
only conditional status in the
minor leagues. After missing
out on a Web.com Tour event
last week in Louisiana, he g-
ured he might as well enter the
Houston Open qualier Mon-
day.
Monday qualiers are ter-
rible. Theyre just not fun, plain
and simple, Wheatcroft said.
I was on the PGA Tour in 07,
played terribly. I had no status.
So I had to be back to Monday
qualiers and pre-qualiers the
next year. I hate them.
Wheatcroft had some good
sessions with swing coach Matt
Killen, felt his game was getting
better in the last month, and
gured it was all about timing.
He made it by one shot into
the eld, and hes playing well
against a strong eld at Red-
stone.
He was at 10-under 134, the
rst time he has ever been atop
the leaderboard on the PGA
Tour. The tournament is only
halfway over, and Wheatcroft has
been around long enough to not
look too far ahead. Even so, this
has Cinderella ramications.
Wheatcroft can become the
rst Monday qualier to win on
the PGATour since Arjun Atwal
at the Wyndham Championship
in August 2010. A win would
put him into the Masters for the
rst time, and perhaps more im-
portantly, give him a two-year
exemption.
A pair of 67s has given him
condence. A career bouncing
around tours has given him per-
spective that it can all change.
If I can be on top of the lead-
erboard at this point, I know I
can keep playing well, he said.
Theres no reason to think I
cant. Ive never won on the
PGA Tour. Ive won on the Web.
com Tour Ive won by 12. I
know I can keep going forward.
Who knows? I could shoot 61
tomorrow. I could shoot 81 to-
morrow. I really dont know.

IN BRIEF
Solid Cactus set for move
More than 100 Solid Cactus employ-
ees said goodbye to their ofce at 106
S. Lehigh St., Shavertown, on Friday
and will relocate to an ofce on Azalea
Road in Drums, Butler Township, on
Monday where fellow e-commerce
company Network Solutions is situ-
ated.
The move to the Network Solutions
site will not result in any job losses and
the companies will keep their sepa-
rate identities, according to company
ofcials. The move was announced in
January.
Web.com, a publicly traded company
based in Jacksonville, Fla., acquired
Solid Cactus in 2009 and Network
Solutions in 2011.
Asian markets edge up
Asian stock markets were mostly high-
er Friday as momentum carried over
from yet another record high on Wall
Street.
Trading remained thin, however, as
stock, bond and commodities markets
were closed for Good Friday in the
United States and Europe, along with
large parts of Asia.
The Standard and Poors 500 index
closed Thursday at its highest level,
driven by more encouraging data
on the U.S. economic recovery. The
government said the economy grew
at an annual rate of 0.4 percent in the
October-December quarter, slightly
better than previous estimates. The
revision reected stronger business
investment and export sales.
Those markets open in Asia reect-
ed the good news out of the United
States: South Koreas Kospi rose 0.6
percent to 2,004.89. Taiwans TAIEX
advanced 0.7 percent to 7,918.61.
Obama courts construction
Trying to show that the economy
remains a top priority, President
Barack Obama promoted a plan Friday
to create construction and other jobs
by attracting private money to help
rebuild roads, bridges and other public
works projects.
Obama eshed out the details
during a visit to a Miami port thats
undergoing $2 billion in upgrades
paid for with government and private
dollars. The quick trip was designed to
show that the economy and unemploy-
ment are top priorities for a president
who also is waging high-prole cam-
paigns on immigration reform and gun
control.
Obama said the unemployment rate
among construction workers was the
highest of any industry, despite being
cut nearly in half over the past three
years.
Jobless numbers decline
Unemployment rates fell in 22 U.S.
states in February from January, a sign
that hiring gains are beneting many
parts of the country.
The Labor Department said Friday
that unemployment rates rose in 12
states and were unchanged in 16.
Nationally, the unemployment rate
slid to a four-year low of 7.7 percent
in February, down from 7.9 percent in
January. Since November, employers
across the country have added an aver-
age of 200,000 jobs a month, nearly
double the average from last spring.
Theyre eager for edamame
A small but growing number of
farmers have been experimenting with
an edible soybean as they look to capi-
talize on Americans interest in adding
non-meat proteins to their diets.
The United States is one of the
worlds top soybean producers, but
most beans grown here are used to
make cooking oil and feed farm ani-
mals. They arent eaten whole.
Now, some farmers from Arkansas
to Minnesota are planting a type called
edamame, which is commonly used in
Asian cuisine.
Food trend experts and farmers say
edamame remains a niche product
somewhere between chia seeds and
quinoa in popularity but they see
potential for growth if food companies
can gure out an efcient processing
system for a crop that must be har-
vested and packaged quickly.

Cleaner gas rule would pump up the prices
WASHINGTONThe Obama
administrations newest anti-
pollution plan would ping Ameri-
can drivers where they wince
the most: at the gas pump. That
makes arguments weighing the
cost against the health benets
politically potent.
The proposal to reduce sul-
fur in gasoline and tighten auto
emission standards, released Fri-
day, would raise gasoline prices
by less than a penny per gallon,
the Environmental Protection
Agency says. But the oil industry
points to its own study putting
the cost between 6 and 9 cents a
gallon.
The EPA also said its proposal
would add about $130 to the
price of new vehicles, beginning
in 2025.
The administration says the
costs to consumers are worth the
payoff: billions of dollars in health
benets from reductions in smog-
and soot-forming pollution.
The agency predicts $7 in
health benets for every dol-
lar spent to implement the new
rules. The agency must hold pub-
lic hearings before nalizing the
rules. It plans for them to take ef-
fect in 2017.
The proposal was praised by
environmentalists and health ad-
vocates, as well as automakers
who say it will help the United
States catch up with the cleaner
fuels used in other nations.
EPA Acting Administrator Bob
Perciasepe said the proposal is
designed to protect the environ-
ment and public health in an af-
fordable and practical way.
Opponents say gasoline prices
are stubbornly high already and
Americans shouldnt have to pay
more. The oil industry, Repub-
licans and some Democrats had
urged the EPA to hold off on pro-
posing the tighter regulations.

FRANKFURT, Germany This
weeks deal to rescue Cyprus and its
banks from nancial collapse has re-
newed fears about Europes shaky
nancial system and where trouble
might next appear.
Many banks across Europe have been
struggling for more than three years as
losses on government bonds and bad
loans piled up. Some governments,
meanwhile, have taken on more debt
trying to prop up their lenders to the
point where they have needed bailing
out themselves.
In Cypruss case, its banking sector
became much bigger than the countrys
government could afford to rescue
seven times the size of the countrys
economy. When the banks were hit by
large losses and Cyprus could not af-
ford to bail it out on its own, the coun-
try turned to the other 16 European
Union countries that use the euro.
Rather than making Europes tax-
payers foot the entire bill for bad bank-
ing, Cyprus and the other eurozone
countries agreed to make the banks
bondholders and big depositors con-
tribute to the rescue. One bank, Laiki,
is to be split up, with its nonperform-
ing loans and toxic assets going into a
bad bank. The healthy side will be ab-
sorbed into the Bank of Cyprus. Savers
with more 100,000 euros in both Bank
of Cyprus and Laiki will face big losses
possibly as much as 80 cents on the
euro.
Depositors and investors have taken
note of the Cyprus deal and are wari-
ly looking around at other countries
where the nancial sector appears too
big or too unstable.
The STOXX Europe 600 Banks in-
dex have fallen 7 percent since a rst
bailout deal, later rejected, was reached
March 16.
Even some of the more nancially
disciplined countries in the eurozone
can raise concerns: The Netherlands
had to take over SNS Reaal, the coun-
trys fourth-largest bank, after it suf-
fered heavy losses.

Consumer
spending
climbs in
February
WASHINGTON Consum-
ers lifted spending in February
at the fastest rate in ve months
a positive sign for the econo-
my though a good chunk of
their cash went to pay for higher
gasoline prices.
Personal spending climbed a
seasonally adjusted 0.7 percent
last month, the Commerce De-
partment said Friday. That was
a notch higher than the estimate
of economists polled by Market-
Watch.
The increase in spending in
January, whats more, was re-
vised up to 0.4 percent from 0.2
percent in another sign that con-
sumers are still feeling pretty
good.
The speedy pace of spending
in the rst two months of the
year indicates that rst-quarter
growth could snap back sharply
to the 3 percent range or more
after a lackluster 0.4 percent in-
crease in the nal three months
of 2012.
Despite the expiry of the pay-
roll tax cut and higher gasoline
prices, were now likely to see
the fastest quarterly gain in real
consumption in two years, said
Paul Ashworth, chief U.S. econo-
mist at Capital Economics.
Yet the composition of spend-
ing also suggests some caution
is in order. Virtually all of the in-
crease in spending in February,
for example, was devoted to per-
ishable items such as gasoline
and food.
Purchases of nondurable
goods jumped 1.9 percent, like-
ly reecting the sharp spike in
prices at the pump. The average
national cost of a gallon of regu-
lar gas surged 13 percent in Feb-
ruary, according to the Energy
Information Administration.
Spending on durable goods
was basically at in February,
marking the worst performance
since last October. Thats a cat-
egory that bears watching: Con-
sumers usually cut back on the
purchase of big-ticket items if
they feel any economic stress or
the need to rebuild their savings.
While the savings rate edged
up to 2.6 percent from 2.2 per-
cent inFebruary, its still at a ve-
year low. A 2 percent increase in
payroll taxes at the start of 2013
is one of the reasons Americans
are saving less.
Yet spending was still fairly
strong last month if perishables
such as gasoline are excluded.
What helped consumers in Feb-
ruary was a 1.1 percent jump
in personal income the third
strong gain in four months af-
ter a 3.7 percent drop in January.
Ination, meanwhile, remains
low.
The PCE price index climbed
0.4 percent in February, largely
because of higher gasoline pric-
es, but its only up 1.3 percent
over the past 12 months and be-
low the Federal Reserves target
of 2 percent.

Dawn of drone age
Aircraft hold promise for benefits in lives of civilians
WASHINGTON The dawn of the
age of aerial civilian drones is rich with
possibilities for people far from the war
zones where they made their devastat-
ing mark as a weapon of choice against
terrorists.
The unmanned, generally small air-
craft can steer water and pesticides to
crops with precision, saving farmers
money while reducing environmental
risk. They can inspect distant bridges,
pipelines and power lines, and nd hur-
ricane victims stranded on rooftops.
Drones some as tiny as a hum-
mingbird promise everyday benets
as broad as the sky is wide. But the
drone industry and those eager to tap
its potential are running headlong into
fears the peeping-eye, go-anywhere
technology will be misused.
Since January, drone-related legisla-
tion has been introduced in more than
30 states, largely in response to privacy
concerns. Many of the bills would pre-
vent police fromusing drones for broad
public surveillance or to watch indi-
viduals without sufcient grounds to
believe they were involved in crimes.
Stephen Ingley, executive director of
the Airborne Law Enforcement Asso-
ciation, says resistance to the technol-
ogy is frustrating. Drones clearly have
so much potential for saving lives, and
its a darn shame were having to go
through this right now, he said.
But privacy advocates say now is the
time to debate the proper use of civil-
ian drones and set rules, before they
become ubiquitous.
Sentiment for curbing domestic
drone use has brought the left and right
together perhaps more than any other
recent issue.
With military budgets shrinking,
drone makers have been counting on
the civilian market to spur the indus-
trys growth.
Law enforcement is expected to be
one of the bigger initial markets for ci-
vilian drones.
Last month, the FBI used drones to
maintain continuous surveillance of a
bunker in Alabama where a 5-year-old
boy was being held hostage.

WALL TO WALL
Spurned winter
exacts a special
kind of revenge
R
eason No. 784 winter
beats summer:
Bats dont y around in
winter.
I did not just say that.
Not after the winter that
wont go away, even as
we welcome a frosty
Easter with the prospect of frozen owers
and babies in boots instead of bonnets.
Except I did.
Thats howmuch I dislike bats.
Nothing like the mouse with wings
ying into your home on the rst reason-
ably warmish night of spring terror-
izing you in a bedroomat 2:30 a.m. before
going into hiding, no less to make you
long for the special bliss of a blanket-lled
night on which all the bats remain fast
asleep in their caves (or factories or bel-
fries, what have you) and come nowhere
near you.
Ah yes, I knowweve talked about bats
before, and thank you sincerely to the
readers who responded in solidarity, top-
ping my relatively mild tale (whose only
shocking ending was my questionable
call to 911) with anecdotes about Little
and Big Browns oating in toilets, ying
into showers and lounging around in
shoes discovered only when feet were
placed inside. My encounter could have
been worse.
Youd think Id be broken in now,
toughened up for my second Jacob
Marley-style visit froma sticky-footed
beast-ghost of spring present. Um
no. Lets just say I reacted with as much
completely uncomposed immaturity as
last time.
So I thought Id share some advice
in case youve not had the pleasure of a
wee-small-hours visit yourselves.
My rst bit: Dont believe everything
you read on the Interwebs. If its true a
bat is way more afraid of you than you of
it, then why have both of mine hidden
rather than accept a gracious escort out?
And if bats are NOTblind, then why the
heck cant they see the open window/
door leading to that world they allegedly
so desperately miss? And, hey, if they like
to seek out the highest points of entry,
why, oh why, my house, one of the short-
est on the street? Did someone misinform
themthat Impleasant to live with? Or is
it, as a relative suggested, that I keep my
house so cold they mistake it for a cave?
Either way, I can rattle off a whole list
of homes in which theyd likely be greeted
with a mere sigh or shrug, as opposed to
the reaction they get fromme. (See above:
Wailing and weeping dont touch it.)
To the long list of two types of people
in this world, I add: People who think
bats are no biggie, and people who plan
to sell their house and join a commune
to avoid the mere possibility of ever
encountering one again while alone. The
former, if they dont grab and toss in the
rst ve minutes, say life goes on if a bat
gets lost and eventually it will showitself
or just leave. (Never trust those folks.)
The latter wake the former up at 3 in the
morning, create mental standby lists and
have standby houses to ee to as well.
So I abandoned ship again this time; so
what? I left 911 alone.
Thats progress.
The bat is gone now, off into the black
of night, its life spared by a merciful (and
law-abiding) captor. I can only hope it
took a message back to its squeaky little
friends: NOTa good house to bust into.
Homeowner inconsolably relentless in
pursuit, youll get no shut-eye and no
invite to Easter dinner.
Speaking of happy Easter, all. Count
your blessings. Bask in the warmth of
family and friends and maybe soon even
the outside air. But should you let your
guard down and leave your doors wide
open one mild night, asking for cool
breezes and trouble simultaneously? Well,
youll probably live. But, wow, will you
learn to love winter.

Fuzzy chicks and cute bunnies
are part of the pastel pantheon of
Easter decor, and their charm helps
dene the look of the season.
But for those who prefer celebrat-
ing with a modern aesthetic, there
are many attractive decor options
that are a tad less cute and a tad
more contemporary. Some refer-
ence Easters traditional color pal-
ette in new ways, while others put
a modern twist on the holidays
iconic elements.
Pottery Barn has realistic speck-
led and robins eggs that would
make pretty ller for tabletop bowls
and vases. There are luster-nished
glass eggs here, too, in soft yellow,
pink and blue that would look smart
on a gray or navy tablecloth or sleek
lacquered console. Mercury-glass
pillar candle holders are rendered
in an interesting new shimmery
pale blue. And theres an elegant
silver-plated cake server embossed
with a rabbit motif. (www.pottery-
barn.com )
Albany, Ore.-based designers
Jason and Cara Hibbs hand-draw,
then screen-print rabbit images on
organic our sack cotton tea towels.
The charming result would make a
great hostess gift. (www.etsy.com/
shop/ohlittlerabbit )
Canadian textile artist Cristina
Larsen crafts winsome stuffed felt-
ed bunnies and chicks in a rainbow
of hues that have a terric design-y
vibe.
I use merino wool to make all
my felt. I dye the colors and stitch
every toy by hand, she says. While
Larsen calls them toys, theyd be
equally at home as artsy Easter d-
cor. (www.etsy.com/shop/textile-
platypus )
The key to a modern Easter look
is simple, according to Kevin Shar-

M
any Americans have embraced out-
door decorating, lling their yards
with uffy sofas, gleaming end tables
and even outdoor rugs.
But what happens when the sun
goes down?
Chris Lambton, landscape designer and host of HGTVs
Going Yard, advises his clients to give as much thought
to the lighting of their outdoor space as they do to the
furnishings.
Forget yesterdays glaring porch light, he says. You can
now choose from a wide range of much subtler lighting
options. Many are inexpensive and stylish enough to
quickly turn a basic patio into a chic entertaining space.
Here Lambton and two other outdoor decorating ex-
perts Los Angeles-based designers Jeff Andrews and
Brian Patrick Flynn offer advice on the newest, most
attractive and safest options for outdoor lighting.
INDULGE YOUR INDOOR STYLE
Many indoor furniture designs and fabrics are nowavail-
able as outdoor items, Lambton says, and the same goes
for lighting. Companies are creating outdoor versions of
their most popular indoor lamps and xtures.
Flynn is a fan of outdoor chandeliers on patios or decks
that are covered: Theyre an excellent way to make any
humdrum outdoor space feel like an actual room.
But, he says, choose wisely: To get them right, youve
got to take scale and proportion into consideration. Install
one thats too small, and it will look like an afterthought.

Q: I live in
a condo and
recently
had my car-
pet pulled
up, plywood
put down,
and then
tile on top in my master
bath dressing room.
After six months, the
grout in the upper area
began to crumble and came
out. The tile man came back
and re-grouted the area. He
does not know why it is hap-
pening; there was no water
leakage.
Now it is happening again
in the same area. The tile
man has 25 years experi-
ence and came highly rec-
ommended.
Can you offer some ad-
vice?
A: Id probably blame the
plywood used as the under-
layment. If it wasnt properly
anchored to the joists, there
might be enough give in it
that when you walk on it, the
grout gets loosened, even if
the tiles are in solid.
I put down exterior plywood
once as underlayment for tile,
but I used drywall screws to
anchor it to the joists and the
ooring underneath.
I prefer Durock or other
kind of cement board as un-
derlayment again properly
anchored.

Q: A few months ago, you


mentioned cleaning shower
stalls and referred to a
shower spray, but I dont
believe you mentioned what
exactly it was.
I have tried everything
on the market, as well as
homemade concoctions to
get the lm off the ber-
glass walls (they are sort of
a ripply plastic material on
two sides and then tile on
the other two sides), with
no luck.
What did you use?
A: It is something called
Method Daily Shower, and I
found it at Target.
The trick to keeping any-
thing clean is to do it every
day something I picked
up when I interviewed Don
Aslett, the Don Juan of the
John back in 1997.
The biggest secret to clean-
ing is the word now, Aslett
told me. But most people
wait till Saturday. Men wont
do the dishes. Theyll let them
pile high in the sink until they
run out of them.
Then they buy paper plates.
You know why the
restrooms at Santa Anita
Racetrack are cleaner than
most home bathrooms? he
asked. Because the cleaning
people are at it all the time.
They get in there and wipe
the toilets and the sinks and
disinfect, and theyre out in
no time.
The point is that when you
let cleaning the shower glass
and tile go for a month, you
have to spend a lot of time
and energy cleaning it when
you get to it.
Spray every day. If you
dont, and the shower-stall
glass wont respond to the
Windex variety of cleaners, try
a lime-scale remover.

Q: Could you please tell


me what to use to seal my
granite? You have men-
tioned you seal your granite
every year but did not men-
tion how to do this or what
products to use.
We have had our granite
for a few years now and
never have sealed it since it
was installed.
This information would
be very helpful.
A: Apparently Ive been lax
about giving you the whole
story. So here goes:
Its called Goddards Granite
and Marble Polish, it costs
$3.49 for a 240 ml bottle, lasts
for years, and is available at
the hardware store.
You do it every year. Not
only does it polish, but it
seals and protects against
stains and water spotting and
doesnt yellow.
Ive been using it for 11
years, since I bought the
house, and the granite looks
as good as the day we moved
in.
Goddards also works on
other surfaces.
Remember, Im not into free
advertising nor recommend-
ing products, contractors and
repair people. Your experi-
ences with them might not be
the same as mine.
Time has taught me to
limit advice to the kinds of
products that might work for
you or types of professionals
you should contact who might
be able to help solve your
problems.

CHICAGO Two years af-
ter her son Shane was crushed
by a falling dresser in the fam-
ilys home just outside Chica-
go, Lisa Siefert drives to her
advocacy work on the dangers
of tip-overs with his car seat
still in place.
She cant bring herself to
go into the bedroom where
the 2-year-old died but gath-
ers the will to talk about what
happened because she didnt
know furniture should be
anchored and wants to warn
others to prevent another
tragedy.
When you walk into (a
childrens store), you expect
the products to be safe, but
thats not true, Siefert said.
The dresser that fell on
Shane two years ago was re-
called in February by the Con-
sumer Product Safety Com-
mission after an investigation
found it to be hazardous. Sev-
eral other actions focusing on
tip-overs are pending or have
been launched after the num-
ber of deaths and injuries to
children from falling televi-
sions and furniture keeps ris-
ing.
From 2000 to 2011, 349
people were killed in tip-
overs, 84 percent of them

Install one thats too big or
hangs too low, and it will com-
pletely overwhelm the space.
Flynn also recommends
using oor lamps and table
lamps designed for outdoor
use. Prices vary widely (from
more than $1,000 to less than
$100), so he suggests hunting
online for deals and the perfect
style.
Another option: Create your
own outdoor xture. Many
electricians can rewire your
favorite indoor lighting to be
safely used outside, Lambton
says. Search for whatever x-
ture you like, he says, then
put an outdoor conduit in and
attach it to a switch.
GO VINTAGE
Vintage is always a key to
good lighting, Andrews says,
indoors and outdoors.
Recently I got these really
cool, inexpensive Moroccan
lanterns with a vintage look.
Rather than simply displaying
them on a table, he hung them
from outdoor branches. I had
them wired for outside and hid
the wires in the trees, he ex-
plains.
When the vintage lanterns
glow from the tree branches at
night, it gives the yard a ro-
mantic and kind of European
feel.
FORGET THE FLOOD
LIGHT
Rather than one or two
bright porch lights, all three
designers suggest using a vari-
ety of softer lights.
Lambton has used faux
stone blocks with LED lights
hidden inside, alongside tradi-
tional lighting. Flynn has done
the same with illuminated
planters.
Sneaking in ambient light
in unexpected ways is some-
thing I love to do, Flynn says.
In Los Angeles, I turned the
middle of a familys Los Fe-
liz backyard into a full-edged
family room, comfy sectional
sofa and all. To bring light
to the space, I used modern,
plastic planters that light up.
They have cords on the back
of them, and connect to exte-
rior outlets. Once turned on,
a light bulb inside the trans-
parent plastic illuminates and
the entire area glows softly.
This is so genius because it
requires no electrician what-
soever.
Even simpler options: thin
strips of lights that can be at-
tached along the underside
of deck railings, or strands of
lights in the shape of every-
thing from simple bulbs to
stars, hearts or jalapeno pep-
pers strung overhead.
No matter which style of
light you choose, Andrews
says, add dimmers to your
outdoor light switches. Ev-
erything in the world, he
says, needs to be on a dim-
mer.
GO BEYOND YOUR DECK
OR PATIO
Dont forget to light the far
reaches of your yard, Lambton
says. It will make your prop-
erty feel bigger and banish the
feeling of being enveloped by
darkness when you entertain
outside.
It costs little to place a few
small, solar-powered lights at
the bases of trees and shrubs.
He also suggests attaching a
few to tree branches. And I
love to uplight ornamental
grasses, Lambton says. It
adds nice depth to the yard.
DONT FORGET THE
FIRE
Fire pits of all sizes from
huge outdoor replaces to
small tabletop containers
provide golden, ickering light
for your outdoor space.
Display a collection of pil-
lar candles in varying sizes
(battery-powered or real),
either clustered on their own
or tucked inside large, glass
lanterns to add a bit of spar-
kle to your yard, Andrews
says.
Or create an outdoor chan-
delier with candles: I tend
to try my hand at rustic do-
it-yourself ideas, Flynn says.
In my own outdoor dining
room, I suspended a candela-
bra made from reclaimed pine
planks, rope, mason jars and
tea lights above the dining
table. When my family comes
over for pizza night, it creates
the perfect ambience.
COMBINE SAFETY
AND BEAUTY
Home-improvement stores
and websites offer a huge array
of options for lighting outdoor
pathways and deck stairs, add-
ing beauty while making your
space safer.
And what about the safety
of leaving lighting out in all
weather? If its outdoor-rated,
Andrews says, it should be
ne. But keep your climate in
mind.
Flynn prefers not to leave
most lighting sources out
year-round unless an out-
door space is covered, he
says. The only type of light-
ing Im worry-free about for
the outdoors is festival-style
string lights. Theyre pretty
much the same thing as holi-
day twinkle lights. My favor-
ite styles are strands with
mini-lanterns; they really
help light the perimeter of a
space.

As The Commonwealth Medical College celebrates the graduation of its rst class
of Doctor of Medicine students on Saturday, May 11, 2013, we recognize that
this dream could only be realized through the commitment and tireless dedication
of more than 900 physician volunteers. These doctors from 16 counties of
northeastern and north central Pennsylvania have donated countless hours of
their time to share the gift of their knowledge and experience with our students.
Because of them a healthier region is becoming a reality for all of us.
For Teaching the Doctors of Tomorrow
and Making a Dream Come True
We Thank You!
In Recognition of Doctors Day - March 30th

younger than 9. In 2011, there
were 41 deaths the highest
one-year total ever, accord-
ing to the safety commission,
which says that, on average,
one child dies in a furniture
tip-over every two weeks..
In addition, an estimated
43,000 individuals are injured
each year in tip-overs, with
almost 60 percent of them
younger than 18, according to
the safety commission.
The deaths and injuries are
preventable, the safety com-
mission says, but alerting
new parents, caregivers and
grandparents about safety
straps and brackets requires
coordination and cooperation
from furniture and TV manu-
facturers and retailers, as well
as physicians, hospitals and
consumer groups.
From stability to interaction
with installers to the role par-
ents can take, its an all-in ap-
proach to bring down an ever-
increasing number of deaths,
said Scott Wolfson, a safety-
commission spokesman.
SafeKids Worldwide, a net-
work of organizations working
to prevent injuries to children,
was spurred to act after moni-
toring reports from emergency
rooms and the Consumer Prod-
uct Safety Commission about
tip-overs, said Kate Carr, presi-
dent and CEO of the Washing-
ton, D.C.-based group.
As Siefert speaks to groups,
she asks if people secure
their furniture and often gets
blank stares, she said. She
also hears that people dont
want to damage their walls or
floors by installing restraints.
People say they dont need
straps because they watch their
kids. But sometimes accidents
happen in front of parents. I tell
them I took all the safety mea-
sures I knew about, but this is
my son, she said, holding up a
brochure with a photo of Shane
in monster-truck earmuffs, a
month before his death.
A brochure offers safety tips
and is part of the work of the
nonprofit Shanes Foundation,
started by Siefert to warn par-
ents about tip-overs.
I can rationalize that we
never knowingly put him in
harms way, but still, as par-
ents, were responsible for his
safety, she said.
Shane had never shown
any inclination to climb on
his dresser, which had small
teddy bears behind clear plas-
tic windows in compartments
above the drawers but only a
changing pad on top, Siefert
said. Yet, on March 14, 2011,
thats what he must have done
when he was in his room for
his afternoon nap. When Sief-
ert went to wake him, she
found him under the dresser.
The Chicago-based Kids
in Danger, which focuses on
childrens product safety,
may push to make mandatory
what is now a voluntary stan-
dard on tip-overs for furniture
manufacturers, said executive
director Nancy Cowles.
It should be assumed that
furniture is safe, if sold for
childrens rooms, Cowles
said. Some companies do
(comply with the standard),
some dont.
By law, the Consumer Prod-
uct Safety Commission has
limited ability to impose re-
strictions, Wolfson said. If a
voluntary standard exists to
curb a potential hazard and
if its being complied with,
the commission cannot force
implementation, he said.
The voluntary standard for
clothing storage containers,
such as dressers, went into
effect in 2009, based on test-
ing by ASTM International,
which develops technical
standards for products, mate-
rials and services.
We look at the stability of
chests, if theyre fully loaded
and drawers are open, said
Len Morrissey, a director
of standards development.
They must withstand the
pull force of 50 pounds,
the approximate weight of a
5-year-old.
To comply with the stan-
dard, safety straps must be
attached to chests and the
furniture must carry tip-over
warning labels, Morrissey
said. Many retailers wont sell
chests unless they meet the
standard, and manufacturers
will advertise that they meet
ASTM criteria, he said.
The standard will be up-
dated in April, with the major
change clarifying how to test
the stability of drawers, he
said. This had been unclear to
some foreign manufacturers
and needed to be consistently
applied for tests to be valid.
How many manufactur-
ers are complying with the
standard is difficult to quan-
tify because theres no formal
means of keeping track.
Indiana-based B. Walter &
Co. has produced tip-over re-
straints for 10 years and sells
them to several large furniture
manufacturers, said Art Jasen,
president and CEO. But a lot
of furniture is made by small
companies and theyre not
that aware of what needs to be
done to provide the safety fac-
tor for their furniture, he said.
The restraints cost manu-
facturers 25 cents, Jasen said,
adding that some have com-
plained about the price.
Any push to make the stan-
dard mandatory would face
tough odds at the Consumer
Product Safety Commission,
where relatively few restric-
tions have been imposed on
the many thousands of prod-
ucts it oversees.
That leaves SafeKids, Siefert
and others to focus on retail-
ers. They would like to create
the kind of pressure that leads
stores to only sell dressers that
meet the standard and to make
straps or other anchors readily
available.
Ikea, which sells ready-to-
assemble childrens furniture,
prints a tip-over warning on
instructions. It says, Chil-
dren rarely do what you ex-
pect them to do. They climb,
clamber and play with things
in ways that are often difficult
to foresee. Buyers are urged
to use brackets to secure fur-
niture to the wall.
The store also has a 12-point
safety checklist posted at the
entrance to the childrens
area. The first point involves
tip-overs and then covers ev-
erything from cabinet door
latches to outlet covers.
Creating sufcient aware-
ness about tip-overs to actu-
ally change consumer behavior
can be a long process, Carr of
SafeKids said, citing initial re-
luctance about seat belts and
child car seats.
This is completely a 100
percent preventable prob-
lem, she said. If making the
standard mandatory is the
only way to accomplish it,
well advocate for that, but
were hoping companies will
put notices on furniture and
then parents will take them
seriously and take action in
their homes.
From stability to
interaction with
installers to the role
parents can take, its an
all-in approach to bring
down an ever-increasing
number of deaths.

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: Theres
this guy I like, Joey.
My sister likes him,
too. Joey and I are
not dating, although
we are very close
friends. My sister (of
course) decided to
ask him out on a date. Im so upset
with her. It has been two days since
their date and Im still not talking to
her.
I cant believe she asked him out
when she knew I was about to. I dont
want to ruin our relationship, but
Joey is now into her. Please give me
some advice before I do something
terribly wrong.
Cant Take It in Florida
Dear Cant Take It: If your sister
jumped in knowing you were inter-
ested in Joey, it was sneaky and
wrong. But you have nothing to
gain by declaring war over it. Keep
your options open and bide your
time. With luck, their romance
will blow over and when it does,
if you have maintained your position
as Joeys close friend, you can
make your move then. It may take
nerves of steel, but I have faith in
you, and it will be worth it in the
long run.
Dear Abby: I lost my mom last year.
It was unexpected, and my father
and I are still hurting. Mom had
a friend who never fails to tell me
how the loss of her mother and her
husband was much more painful
for her than my loss. Every time I
have the unfortunate luck of an-
swering the phone when she calls,
shell ask how Im doing, then launch
into how hard it was on her and I
dont know the true pain that she
does.
I am sick of people telling me they
understand how I feel and what Im
going through. No one knows the
depth of what Im experiencing, ex-
cept maybe my sibling. I moved back
home to take care of my wonderful
mother. She was my best friend. I
could tell her anything and she was
never judgmental. I love her and I
hurt from her loss.
Please tell people when offering
condolences to just listen and be
there. Thats what anyone who
suffers a loss needs more than any-
thing. Do not compare your pain to
theirs.
And Abby, please know how sorry
I am for the loss of your own dear
mother, and thank you for letting
me vent.
Hole in My Heart in Ocean
Springs, Miss.
Dear Hole In Your Heart: Im sorry
for your loss, too, and youre wel-
come. Please know that no rule of
etiquette says you have to listen to
that womans insensitive prattle.
The next time she starts, it is per-
fectly acceptable to stop her cold
and tell her that when she compares
her pain to yours she is being in-sen-
sitive, and that if she does it
one more time you will hang up.
Clearly, she is not calling to see
how youre doing; she is calling to
dump. There are times when you
must protect yourself, and this is
one of them.
DEAR ABBY
A D V I C E
Sisters are squaring off over a boy who they both would like to date
To receive a collection of Abbys most memo-
rable and most frequently requested po-
ems and essays, send a business-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 Mor-
ris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). The
solution to most problems is
found in one word: communicate.
Listening better makes for bet-
ter responses. Answers and right
actions come easily to those who
are excellent listeners.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Someone you know is a prime
candidate for the robot suits
being designed to aid the elderly
and the physically challenged.
Meanwhile, you appreciate peo-
ple for their minds, regardless of
what their bodies can do.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Your
warmth makes others feel safe.
They will include you because
they know youll add energy to
whatever they have going on.
Each invitation you get is proof
of your social impact.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Working with others will be a joy
as long as youre all on the same
page. Whomever youre dealing
with, check to be sure they share
your vision of the outcome.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You still feel
an awkwardness in greeting and
leaving certain people. Should
you hug? Shake hands? Walk
them to the car? When in doubt,
do more. You wont regret it.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You have
a way of turning problematic
characters into contributors. You
actively look for and publicly
recognize what people are doing
right, even if they also are doing
a few things wrong.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your
jolly mood will inspire you to be
direct, telling people outright
that you like them. This wont
make you seem uncool. In fact,
youll light up the room.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Theres
a twinkling in your eyes and
a smile just waiting to dance
across your lips at the slightest
provocation. This time it wasnt
put there by you-know-who or
by anyone in particular. You love
life, period.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
The high points of the day will be
brought to you by someone you
find fascinating. As you notice
aloud what makes this person so
interesting, a kinship develops.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
You are bored by overly serious
people and will do everything
in your power to lighten up the
environment around you, making
it less hospitable to the heavy of
heart.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Happiness will come in waves,
and youll process it in outbursts
of expression for instance, by
singing loudly. Joyful noises are
always beautiful even if they are
not skillful.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Relationships will be like poker,
and you will play for attention
rather than chips. The larger a
persons investment the harder
it will be for that person to walk
away from the table.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (March
30). The next three weeks
bring tremendous inspiration.
Being inspired to act will not
be enough, though. Youll win
because you are also organized
and able to execute. May brings
solid planning and a stellar team.
June shows you giving an accep-
tance speech. Family celebrates
together in July. Your lucky num-
bers are: 2, 14, 39, 33 and 45.

CARPETING TIP OF THE WEEK
Does Carpet have
formaldehyde in it?
Formaldehyde was removed from
the carpet manufacturing process
in 1987. It is unlikely anyone still
has the original carpeting from 35
years ago and even if that is the
case, the formaldehyde would have
dissipated by now.
