James Dutschke now focus of investigation after FBI clears his acquaintance.
BOSTON With the Boston marathon bombing suspect in a prison hospital, investigators are pushing forward in the U.S. and abroad to piece together the myriad details of a plot that killed three people and injured more than 260. FBI agents have wrapped up a two-day search at a landll near the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, where 19-year-old suspect, Dzhohkar Tsarnaev, was a sophomore. FBI spokeswoman Laura Eimiller wouldnt say what investigators were looking for or whether they recovered anything from the landll before the search ended Friday. A federal law enforcement ofcial not authorized to speak on the record about the investigation told The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity on Friday that the FBI was gathering evidence regarding everything imaginable.

Flurry of development near downtown theater

Concerned by a report from the General Accountability Ofce, U.S. Sen. Bob Casey is asking the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to study how Pennsylvanians who live between 10 and 50 miles of a nuclear plant would react if there were a radiation release. The recently Casey released GAO report raised concerns about the emergency planning knowledge of residents outside of emergency preparedness zones, which encompass the area within a 10-mile radius of a nuclear power plant. The GAO conducted the study after Casey and other senators

The loud purple facade of the former Flaming Star Tattoos shop will soon be toned down to t in with the downtown Wilkes-Barre neighborhoods historical character a subtle yet signicant sign of once-shuttered storefronts being renovated or reopened around the theater complex. It wasnt just the color that unsettled city ofcials who saw the potential for the shops row of old architecture on South Main Street. It was the way the vibrant hue stopped midway up the
building in an uneven line, accentuating the unnished progress of the paint job and much of the neighborhood. One of the rst things the new owners will do is repaint that facade, said attorney William Vinsko, who bought the building at a Luzerne County back-tax auction for $33,000 last week on behalf of private clients who will be identied when the deed is recorded. The buyers plan to renovate the property at 86 S. Main St. to attract tenants, Vinsko said. Next door, Joseph and Pamela Masi are redoing the facade and interior
of their property, which previously housed Toppers topless bar, Vinsko said. The Masis, who purchased the property for $85,000 in 2010, have added an ice cream shop at the rear of the property. Also, at 91 S. Main, Mark Miscavage is redoing the front his building across the street which houses his dental ofce and the David Blight School of Dance, Vinsko said. That whole area is going to be completely transformed, he said.

BRANDON, Miss. An exmartial arts instructor made ricin and put the poison in letters to President Barack Obama and others, the FBI charged Saturday, days after dropping similar charges against an Elvis impersonator who insisted he had been framed. The arrest of 41-year-old James Everett Dutschke Dutschke early Saturday capped a week in which investigators initially zeroed in on a rival of Dutschkes, then decided they had the wrong man. The hunt for a suspect revealed tie after small-town tie between the two men and the 80-year-old county judge who, along with Obama and U.S. Sen. Roger Wicker of Mississippi, was among the targets of the letters. Dutschkes house, business and vehicles in Tupelo were searched earlier in the week often by crews in hazardous materials suits and he had been under surveillance. Dutschke was charged with knowingly developing, producing, stockpiling, transferring, acquiring, retaining and possessing a biological agent, toxin and delivery system, for use as a weapon, to wit: ricin. U.S. attorney Felicia Adams and Daniel McMullen, the FBI agent in charge in Mississippi, made the announcement in a news release Saturday. Dutschkes attorney, Lori Nail Basham, said she had no comment. Earlier this week she said that Dutschke was cooperating fully with investigators and Dutschke has insisted he had nothing to do with the letters. He was arrested about 12:50 a.m. at his house in Tupelo and

DALLAS TWP. Dozens of eager Misericordia University students, ink markers in hand, attempted to set a new world record on Saturday, connecting 1,432 Crayola erasable markers in a straight line in hopes of making a mark in the Guinness World Records book. The event, which took place on campus, was part of the universitys annual SpringFest Weekend, with this years theme being Breaking records! Don Spencer, of BortonLawson Engineering Inc., was on hand to ensure the attempt was made accurately and would meet Guinness standards. Well be forwarding the specifics to Guinness and then hoping that we hear back that we have a place in the record books, he said. Its also a great chance for students to gather together on campus and work together in a healthy drug- and alcoholfree environment, said Aaron Orchard, a junior majoring in health care management and member of the Student Government Association.

tions throughout the area serving children, Orchard said. Across campus, Jaime Washofer, of Waldwick, N.J., a senior majoring in occupational therapy, and Angelo Prince, of Hainesport, N.J., a freshman, were pursuing a different kind
of record. The two were the last of about 30 students participating in the Touch the Van competition, which began on Friday. With hands rmly placed on a campus van, each hoped to outlast the other in touching the

Darcy Brodmerkel, director of Student Activities, said the event was an opportunity to build school spirit and make memories. She was encouraged by the turnout, she said. With upcoming exams and plans to return home, its a great time to relax and enjoy the campus, Brodmerkel said. The weather fully cooperated during the festival, which included the dedication of a new on-campus baseball eld. The event began with a nod to Misericordia President Michael MacDowell, following the volleyball competition earlier this week. He received a trophy for leadership and participation in the event for 15 years of effort, always participating with good spirit although his team had never won. Dr. MacDowell is retiring this year and we wanted to especially honor him, Orchard said.

Many attendees said they were looking forward to todays Powder Puff football game before having to head back to class and prepare for nal exams.

LOCAL YMCA program cuts through fat

Areas agency encourages youths to develop healthier, active lifestyles.

WILKES-BARRE The amount of fat in a large order of McDonalds french fries and sugar in a 20-ounce bottle of Mountain Dew were among the displays that the Wilkes-Barre Family YMCA spotlighted Saturday for its Healthy Kids Day. The YMCA, and its counterparts across the nation, invited the public in to learn ways to develop healthier and
active lifestyles. More than 30 percent of Luzerne County children, in kindergarten through fourth grade, have body mass indexes in the 85th percentile or greater, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. A healthy BMI range to achieve is 18.5 to 24.9. The BMI is a way to calculate a bodys fat content based on a persons weight and height. Being overweight can lead to health maladies such as diabetes, hypertension, heart and circulation problems, and respiratory problems. Diane Hoover, with the YMCAs Wellness Center, said
many area residents think of the YMCA for only swimming or certain gym activities, but there are many more offerings, such as kids Zumbatonic classes. Getting active is only one step to becoming healthy; many vendors were on hand to educate families on nutrition, summer safety and drug awareness. Wilkes University School of Pharmacy students provided information on nutrition, such as the fact that a 20-ounce Mountain Dew soda contains 77 grams of sugar. By comparison, one pouch of Capri Sun juice has 16 grams

Hunter Hughes, a Boy Scout with Troop 281, Dallas, is trying to raise participation in the American Cancer Societys Cancer Prevention Study-3 for his Eagle Scout project. He is inviting men and women between the ages of 30 and 65 who have never been diagnosed with cancer to join the study. The ultimate goal is to enroll at least 300,000 adults from various racial/ ethnic backgrounds from across the U.S., allowing researchers to better understand the lifestyle, behavioral, environmental and genetic factors that cause or prevent cancer. To enroll in the study, individuals are asked to go to an enrollment location, read and sign an informed consent form, complete a brief survey, have their waist circumference measured and give a small blood sample. After enrollment, participants periodically will receive annual newsletters as well as mailed surveys to update their information. An enrollment session will be held during the Relay for Life from noon to 4 p.m. June 15 at the Robert Betzler Fields (across from Wegmans).

Area churches are celebrating National Day of Prayer on Thursday with free events. Ofcially marked by the federal government in 1988 as the rst Thursday in May, National Day of Prayer is a chance for Christians to share their message openly, something they dont do as often as they should, said First Baptist Church of Wilkes-Barre member Bob Evans. In addition to events earlier in the week, members of about 20 churches will meet on Public Square, WilkesBarre, for the Circle the Square with Prayer event Thursday. There will be music and food vendors from noon until 6 p.m., at which time a prayer service will be held, Evans said. This years theme is Pray for America and area churches have chosen to pray specically for young people, Evans said. Younger church members will read aloud seven prayers they collaborated to write.

In life-or-death situations, nurses quickly react. Some of the 117 students in the Marywood University nursing program are following that protocol after they learned their program has lost its accreditation. Multiple nursing programs at other area colleges have reported getting calls from nursing students or their parents in the weeks since Marywood announced that the National League of Nursing Accreditation Commission denied continuing accreditation to the program immediately. The school is appealing that decision and has said it would apply for accreditation with that organization and another, but students arent waiting. Mary Ann Merrigan, associate dean of the school of nursing at Wilkes University, said the program has been contacted by Marywood students about possibly transferring to Wilkes. Misericordia University has reported similar inquiries. According to our admissions department, Misericordia has received numerous applications and inquiries for all levels of our nursing program from Marywood nursing students, said spokesman Paul Krzywicki. At Wilkes, which typically has a policy that denies students from transferring in their nursing credits, Merrigan said this situation might call for a suspension of that policy. Those students have special circumstances, she said. But just because they apply, it wont mean theyll get in or that their credits will transfer. Theyll need to take exams and validate their nursing knowledge, Merrigan said. I feel very badly for their faculty, for their students, she added. Merrigan said she is not versed in the details that cost the Marywood program its accreditation, but noted, The hope is that Marywood will be able to win its appeal and have its accreditation status reversed. In the meantime, sources have said Marywood ofcials are in discussions with at least one area college for an articuSee DILEMMA, Page 6A

them when the 8-story structure came down on Wednesday morning a time many of the garment factories in the building were packed with workers. It was the worst tragedy to hit Bangladeshs massive garment industry, and focused attention on the poor working conditions of the employees who toil for $38 a month to produce clothing for top international brands. Among those arrested Saturday were two owners of a garment factory, who a Dhaka court ruled can be questioned by police for 12 days without charges being led. Also detained are two government engineers and the wife of the building owner, who is on the run, in an attempt to force him to surrender. Late Saturday, police arrested another factory owner. Violent public protests continued sporadically in Dhaka and spread to the southeastern city of Chittagong where several vehicles were set on re. Working round-the-clock since Wednesday through heat and a thunderstorm, rescuers on Saturday nally reached the ground oor from the top of the mountainous rubble through 25 narrow holes they have drilled, said Brig.

Tax cheats make good
he Internal Revenue Service has recouped more than $5.5 billion under a series of programs that offered reduced penalties and no jail time to people who voluntarily disclosed assets they were hiding overseas, government investigators said Friday. In all, more than 39,000 tax cheats have come clean under the programs. But theres more. Government investigators suspect that thousands of other taxpayers have quietly started reporting foreign accounts without paying any penalties or interest. The number of people reporting foreign accounts to the IRS nearly doubled from 2007 to 2010, to 516,000 accounts, a report by the Government Accountability Ofce said.

Slow go on cracker plant

Gov. Tom Corbett says an oil companys decision on whether to build a proposed petrochemical plant in western Pennsylvania might be pushed back into next year, but he remains optimistic about the plant coming to the commonwealth. Corbett told the Pittsburgh Business Times on Friday that he never had June as a date for Shell Oil Co. to decide on the multibillion-dollar plant proposed for Beaver County. Ive always thought it would be early next year, he said, adding that his conversations with ofcials indicate theyre still moving forward. The June 30 deadline stems from a six-month extension Shell negotiated at the end of last year with Horsehead Corp., which would sell its land 35 miles north of Pittsburgh to the energy rm. The Potter Township site is now home to a zinc shelter, which Horsehead expects to shut down.

4 die in NATO plane crash

A NATO plane crash in southern Afghanistan killed four international troops on Saturday, the same day the Taliban announced its spring offensive and said it will target military and diplomatic sites with suicide bombers and inltrate enemy forces to conduct deadly insider attacks. April already has been the deadliest month so far this year across the country where Afghan security forces are increasingly taking the lead on the battleeld of the more than 11-yearold war. The Afghan Defense Ministry said its security forces were prepared for the Talibans new campaign, which is to start today.
KABUL, AFGHANISTAN
HARRISBURG Where you can buy beer in Pennsylvania will be the subject of debate in the coming weeks in the state Senate, pitting prot-seeking businesses against one another and perhaps even against beer drinkers wishes. What do beer drinkers want? In Harrisburg, that story line is being told by a variety of businesses in the context of what lines up neatly with their would-be prots. In the middle of it is Sen. Charles McIlhinney, R-Bucks, who chairs the committee that will get the rst crack at a
convenience to the beer system is largely a passenger in the drive by Republican Gov. Tom Corbett to privatize the statecontrolled sales of wine and liquor. So any changes to Pennsylvanias relatively restrictive beer laws likely will be part of the larger puzzle of liberalizing the sale of all alcoholic beverages. The only way to do it is to craft a fair playing eld for everybody and let them compete, McIlhinney said. Arguably, beer is more important to Pennsylvanians: The state was fth in the nation in beer shipments and 12th in wine shipments, according to statistics compiled by the Washington, D.C.-based Beer Institute. Changing the system could be tricky.
Corbett is spending more of his political effort on the ideological battle around privatizing wine and liquor sales. But changing the beer system could take an equally large political effort. Pennsylvanias hometown brewers, wholesalers and the retail distributors who sell most of the beer in the state are largely aligned against an expansion of beer retailers. What Pennsylvanians want is to be able to buy beer in a wider variety of quantities than is currently allowed, they say. But owners of convenience stores, grocery stores, drug stores, big-box stores and supermarkets are lobbying for the ability to sell beer not to mention wine and liquor in their aisles. That satises the one-stop shopping that consumers want and get in many other states, they say.
Galaxy not so far away for Navajo

Star Wars used to preserve native language

Threat scrubs school dance

A central New Jersey school district canceled a middle school dance this week after the schools embattled principal received a threatening email. Authorities did not disclose specic details about the threat made against Readington Middle School Principal Sharon Moffat. But they say the threat received Friday morning apparently came from overseas and is not considered credible. District Superintendent Barbara Sargent said township police offered to have an ofcer at the school for the dance, but said it seemed more sensible to not hold the dance.
READINGTON, N.J.
FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. In the new translation of Star Wars, Darth Vader is Lukes bizhee. The classic 1977 lm that launched a science ction empire and revealed the force within a farm boy who battles evil has been dubbed in Japanese, French, Spanish and about a dozen other languages. Add Navajo to the list. Manuelito Wheeler, the director of the Navajo Nation Museum who reached out to Lucaslm Ltd. with the idea, has a very good feeling about this. He sees it as entertaining, educational and a way to preserve the Navajo language at a time when fewer tribal members are speaking it.
Thats the beauty of what were doing; were teaching Navajo language to anybody who wants to learn the Navajo language, Wheeler said. I nd that very rewarding and somewhat ironic. We went from a country that wanted to limit our language, to the Navajo language saving our country through Code Talkers, to our language being part of a major motion picture. Native languages on the big screen are a rarity. Independent lms and documentaries at lm festivals have been in the tongue of American Indian tribes. Yet its far less common to see it done in main-
stream movies and shown in commercial theaters. Bambi was dubbed in the Arapaho language, and the cartoon series The Berenstain Bears was translated into the Dakota and Lakota languages. Theres a little bit of precedent but nothing like Star Wars in the Navajo language, said Michael Smith, director of the American Indian Film Institute and a member of the Sioux Tribe of Montana.
WASHINGTON The Federal Aviation Administration said that the U.S. air trafc system will resume normal operations by thisevening after lawmakers rushed a bill through Congress allowing the agency to withdraw furloughs of air trafc controllers and other workers. The FAA said it has suspended all employee furloughs and that trafc facilities will begin returning to regular stafng levels. The furloughs were fallout from the $85 billion in automatic-acrossthe-board spending cuts this spring. They started to hit air trafc controllers last week, causing ight delays that left thousands of travelers frustrated and furious. Planes were forced to take off and land less frequently, so as not to overload the remaining controllers on duty. The FAA had no choice but to cut $637 million as its share of $85 billion in automatic, governmentwide spending cuts that must be achieved by the end of the federal budget year on Sept. 30. Flight delays piled up across the country last Sunday and Monday as the FAA kept planes on the ground because there werent enough controllers to monitor busy air corridors. Cascading delays held up ights at some of nations busiest airports, including New York, Baltimore and Washington. Delta Air Lines canceled about 90 ights Monday because of worries about delays. Just about every passenger was rebooked on another Delta ight within a couple of hours. Air travel was smoother Tuesday. The cuts were required under a law enacted two years ago as the government was approaching its debt limit. Democrats were in favor of raising the debt limit without strings attached so as not to provoke an economic crisis, but Republicans insisted on substantial cuts in exchange. The compromise was to require that every government program, project and activity with some exceptions, such as Medicare be cut equally. The FAA had reduced the work schedules of nearly all of its 47,000 employees by one day every two weeks, including 15,000 air trafc controllers, as well as thousands of air trafc supervisors, managers and technicians who keep airport towers and radar facility equipment working. That amounted to a 10 percent cut in hours and pay.

some, just like the local entrepreneurs in our community, said Trish Mosluk, city director of Lemonade Day-NEPA. Lemonade Day-NEPA started in 2011 when Tristans dad and Valeries husband, Dale Nat, read a Wall Street Journal article about the national Lemonade Day program, headquartered in Houston. The concept for the program began when a girl, who already owned several pets, asked her dad if she could buy a turtle if she earned the money. After seeing the valuable lessons his daughter learned while running a lemonade stand that funded the turtle purchase, the girls father, Michael Holthouse, decided to teach those lessons to other children. Launched in Houston, the rst Lemonade Day was held in 2007. Using a strategic 14-step process, children across the nation now learn how to set up their own lemonade stands by mastering the same principles required to start any company. Lemonade Day has grown from 2,700 kids in Texas to 150,000 kids in 36 cities across the United States and Canada. Google has partnered with Lemonade Day to assist the participants with marketing and promoting their stands. The kids get a free website through Google, which encourages them to be creative, said Nat, an entrepreneur, and also city champion for Lemonade Day. They are really encouraged to be creative and to stretch their brains. Tasting judge Rob Cardone, an instructor in the hotel/restaurant management program at Luzerne County Community College, eyed up the different lemonade recipes, concocted by area children and their families. Theres a variety, he said. Im looking forward to seeing the creativity in the kids. ReferLocal and Pepper Jam founder Kris Jones, who also was one of the contest judges, said entrepreneurism should be taught at an early age. My son took part in this last year at three-and-a-half, he said. It taught him that making money isnt only about prots. For every dollar earned, a dollar went to the Make-a-Wish Foundation.

Dancers from the Izdihaar dance troupe, hailing from Tunkhannock and whose name means blossoming in Arabic, popped their hips and shoulders in brightly colored costumes adorned with bells and tassels. Vicki Ross, a 10-year bellydancing veteran, said she picked the style because it seemed more fun than ballroom dancing. And belly dancers dress better, she said. Ross is the troupes seamstress and makes her costumes by hand. After Randazzo, of the Dance Theater of Wilkes-Barre, nished her solo, she confessed that nerves got the best of her and she forgot some of the steps she spent four days crafting. Still, she completed the dance by cleverly improvising and it seemed that nobody in

6 months after Sandy, thousands homeless in N.Y., N.J.

Recovery still slow as summer vacation and hurricane seasons approach.
By WAYNE PARRY Associated Press
MANTOLOKING, N.J. The 9-year-old girl who got New Jerseys tough-guy governor to shed a tear as he comforted her after her home was destroyed is bummed because she now lives far from her best friend and has nowhere to hang her One Direction posters. A New Jersey woman whose home was overtaken by mold still cries when she drives through the area. A New York City man whose home burned cant wait to build a new one. Six months after Superstorm Sandy devastated the Jersey shore and New York City and pounded coastal areas of New England, the region is dealing with a slow and frustrating, yet often hopeful, recovery. Tens of thousands of people remain homeless. Housing, business, tourism and coastal protection all remain major issues with the summer vacation and hurricane seasons almost here again. Some families and some lives have come back together quickly and well, and some people are up and running almost as if nothing ever happened, and for them its been fine, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said at a news conference Thursday. Some people

resilience. Talking to that man was wonderful! Fricchione said. He said it takes time and you just have to have hope and know it will all work out eventually. By many measures, the recovery from Superstorm Sandy, which struck Oct. 29, has been slow. From Maryland to New Hampshire, the National Hurricane Center attributes 72 deaths directly to Sandy and 87 others indirectly from causes such as hypothermia due to power outages, carbon monoxide poisoning and accidents during cleanup efforts, for a total of 159. The roller coaster that plunged off a pier in Seaside Heights, N.J., is still in the ocean, although demolition plans are finally moving forward. Scores of homes that were destroyed in
nearby Mantoloking still look as they did the day after the storm piles of rubble and kindling, with the occasional bathroom fixture or personal possession visible among the detritus. Throughout the region, many businesses are still shuttered, and an already-tight rental market has become even more so because of the destruction of thousands of units and the crush of displaced storm victims looking to rent the ones that survived. Homeowners are tortured by uncertainty over ever-changing rules on how high theyll need to rebuild their homes to protect against the next storm; insurance companies have not paid out all that many homeowners expected; and municipalities are borrowing tens of millions of dollars to keep the lights on, the fire
trucks running and the police stations staffed, waiting for reimbursement from the federal government for storm expenditures they had to fund out of pocket. And yet, by other measures, remarkable progress has been made. Boardwalks, the tourism lifeblood of the region, are springing back to life. A handful of homes are going up, and the whine of power saws and the thwack of hammers is everywhere in hard-hit beach towns as contractors fix what can be saved and bulldozers knock down what cant. Beaches that were washed away are coming back, due both to nature and bulldozers, and real estate agents say demand for this upcoming summer appears good, particularly in the portions of the Jersey shore that were relatively unscathed by Sandy.
are still very much in the midst of recovery.

The GAO report, titled Emergency Preparedness: NRC Needs to Better Understand Likely Public Response to Radiological Incidents, found that people living in the 10-mile zone are generally well informed about emergency preparedness procedures, including evacuation and sheltering in place, and are likely to follow directions from local and state authorities in the event of a radiological emergency. In contrast, (the NRC and Federal Emergency Management Agency) do not require similar information to be provided to the public outside of the 10-mile zone and have not studied public awareness in this area, according to the re-

est to Luzerne County is Three Mile Island near Harrisburg. Ofcials at Fukushima had recommended that people within 12 miles of the plant evacuate and within 12 to 18 miles of it shelter in place. The NRC had recommended that Americans within 50 miles of the Fukushi-
ma plant evacuate. The GAO also questioned the accuracy of NRCs estimate that a 20-percent shadow evacuation would occur if an evacuation within a 10-mile radius of a plant was recommended. A shadow evacuation is an evacu-

The GAO questioned whether a shadow evacuation greater than 20 percent would slow down the evacuation of people in the 10-mile zone because of clogged roadways. NRC spokesman Neil Sheehan said the NRC has conducted studies that determine a 20-percent shadow evacuation is a reasonable estimate. Even if it were a higher percentage, the NRC does not believe it would impede the evacuation of people within the 10-mile radius and there would be no signicant impact on trafc movement. Sheehan said the NRC would take a look at whether people in the 10- to 50-mile radius have adequate information available to them about sheltering in place, evacuation routes and emergency shelters. Phone books have the information and you can nd it on many websites, he said. Sheehan said NRC studies have indicated that the public heeds the guidance being provided to state and local authorities to either evacuate or shelter in place.

months before the April 15 attack a disclosure that deepens the mystery around the Tsarnaev family and marks the rst time American authorities have acknowledged that Zubeidat Tsarnaeva was under investigation before the tragedy. Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is charged with joining with his older brother, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, now dead, in setting off the shrapnel-packed pressurecooker bombs. The brothers are ethnic Chechens from Russia who came to the United States about a decade ago with their parents. Investigators have said it appears the brothers were angry about the U.S. wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Two government ofcials, speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly about the investigation, said the CIA had Zubeidat Tsarnaevas name added to the terror database along with that of her son Tamerlan after Russia contacted the agency in 2011 with concerns that the two were religious militants. About six months earlier, the FBI investigated mother and son, also at Russias request, one of the ofcials said. The FBI found no ties to terrorism. Previously U.S. ofcials had said only that the FBI investigated Tamerlan Tsarnaev. In an interview from Russia, Tsarnaeva said Friday that she has never been linked to terrorism. Its all lies and hypocrisy, she said from Dagestan. Im sick and tired of all this nonsense that they make up about me and my children. People know me as a regular person,
Tyson, 46, had a storied career he was one of the worlds most recognized athletes in the 1980s and 1990s and a troubled life that included a prison stint for rape, nancial problems and two failed marriages. The idea for the play came, Tyson said, when he and third wife, Kiki, were watching A Bronx Tale, Chazz Palminteris story about a father who worries when a local gangster befriends his son in the Bronx in the 1960s. I said to my wife, I think I can do this, Tyson said. I can talk about my life from an artistic point of view. Tysons show sold out for two weeks in Las Vegas and two more on Broadway. His 10-week tour includes 36 cities, including Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Houston and Washington, D.C. During the interview, Tyson asked where Wilkes-Barre was. When he learned it was near Scranton, he spoke fondly about his years as an amateur boxer in Scranton and Jessup and his friendship with Joe Munley, a former sparring partner. Joe Munley is a good friend, he said. The Munleys are great people. Scranton people are real people, man. Theyre hard workers. I love that area. Munley, 58, a real estate investor, has seen Tysons show three times in New York City. Its excellent, Munley said. Hes true-blue and he talked about everything from when he was a kid growing up robbing old ladies to get money to eat to his boxing to his time in prison to how he blew millions of dollars. Munley said Tyson was always kind to him and his family. The ex-champ has settled down, said Munley, having lost more than 100 pounds to get down to his former ghting weight of 220 pounds. He wants to be a good husband and father, Munley said. Munley said he would wear a steel helmet and protective gear when he sparred with Tyson some 25 years ago. He still broke my ribs, he said. He is the most devastating puncher Ive ever been in the ring with I never took a punch as vicious as Mike Tysons. Munley faced Jerry Quarry, Duane Bobick, Mitch Blood Green and other top heavyweights, he said. Munley said Tyson spent his 20th birthday in Scranton. Munley was in the room when ABCTVs Barbara Walters interviewed Tyson, and he has been to Tysons home many times. After he knocked out Marvis Frasier in the rst round, we came back to Scranton and I took him to Farleys for dinner, Munley said. During his amateur career, Tyson fought several times in Lackawanna County. Munley said one opponent he cant remember his name gave Tyson a good battle. Ive been everywhere with him, Munley said. Im glad to see him the way he is now. Hes always
been good-hearted.

and Ive never been mixed up in any criminal intentions, especially any linked to terrorism. Tsarnaeva faces shoplifting charges in the U.S. over the theft of more than $1,624 worth of womens clothing from a Lord & Taylor department store in Natick in 2012. Earlier this week, she said she has been assured by lawyers that she would not be arrested if she traveled to the U.S., but she said she was still deciding whether to go. The suspects father, Anzor Tsarnaev, said that he would leave Russia soon for the United States to visit one son and lay the other to rest. A team of investigators from
the U.S. Embassy in Moscow questioned both parents in Russia this week. Late this week, Dzhohkar Tsarnaev was taken from Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, where he was recovering from a throat wound and other injuries suffered during an attempt to elude police, and was transferred to the Federal Medical Center Devens, about 40 miles from Boston, the U.S. Marshals Service said. The facility, at a former Army base, treats federal prisoners. Its where he should be; he doesnt need to be here anymore, said Beth Israel patient Linda Zamansky, who thought
his absence could reduce stress on bombing victims who have been recovering at the hospital under tight security. Two college buddies of his Azamat Tazhayakov and Dias Kadyrbayev have been interviewed at length, twice, by FBI agents and have cooperated fully, said Kadyrbayevs lawyer, Robert Stahl, a former federal prosecutor. They were detained April 20 after being questioned in connection with the attacks, but are not suspects, Stahl said. They are being detained at a county jail in Boston for violating their student visas by not regularly attending classes, he said.
Tysons remarkable life: lofty highs, disturbing lows

By BILL OBOYLE boboyle@timesleader.com
Devastating puncher
WILKES-BARRE Mike Tyson, once the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world, has led a public life that took him from the dim boxing gyms of upstate New York to Madison Square Garden. Along the way in the 1980s and 1990s there were nightclub scenes, days in court and a personal life lled with trouble. Despite the self-inicted turmoil, Tyson accomplished something no boxer had ever done before: he won the three biggest belts in prizeghting the WBC, WBA and IBF world heavyweight titles. Following are highlights of Tysons life and career from the website biography.com: Mike Tyson, born on June 30 1966, and was the youngest person at age 20 to become the heavyweight boxing champion of the world. He lost the title in 1990 to little-known Buster Douglas in Japan and later served
three years in prison over rape charges. He subsequently earned further notoriety by biting Evander Holyelds ear during a re-match in 1997. He has gone on to appear in several lms, including a documentary on his life. As a youth, he frequently ran into trouble with police over his petty criminal activities, and by the age of 13 he had been arrested more than 30 times. Tysons bad behavior landed him in the Tryon School for Boys, a reform school in upstate New York. In 1980 he was introduced the aspiring boxer to legendary boxing manager Constantine Cus DAmato, who had a gym in Catskill, N.Y. DAmato immediately recognized Tysons promise as a heavyweight contender. The relationship between DAmato and Tyson was more than that of a professional trainer and a boxerit was also one of a father and son.
DAmato took Tyson under his wing, and when the 14-year-old was paroled from Tryon in September 1980, he entered into DAmatos full-time custody. By 1986, at the age of 20, Tyson had garnered a 22-0 record21 of the ghts won by knockout. On Nov. 22, 1986, Tyson nally reached his goal: his rst title ght against Trevor Berbick for the World Boxing Council (WBC) heavyweight championship. Tyson won the title by a knockout in the second round. At the age of 20 years and four months he beat Pattersons record, becoming the youngest heavyweight champion in history. Tyson married television actress Robin Givens on Feb. 7, 1988, in New York. The marriage was tumultuous and ended in 1989. Tysons winning streak came to an end on Feb. 11, 1990, when he lost his championship belt to boxer Buster Douglas in Tokyo, Japan. In July 1991 Tyson was
accused of raping Desiree Washington, a Miss Black American contestant. Eight months later Tyson was found guilty on one count of rape and two counts of deviant sexual conduct in Indiana. Tyson was released on March 25, 1995, after serving three years of a six-year sentence. On June 28, 1997, Tyson bit off the right ear of Evander Holyeld during a match. His license was suspended and he was ned $3 million. On March 5, 1998, the boxer led a $100 million lawsuit in U.S. District Court in New York against Don King, accusing the promoter of cheating him out of millions of dollars. King and Tyson settled out of court for $14 million. Tyson allegedly lost unknown millions in the process. After losing several more ghts throughout 2003 and 2005, including one to Lenox Lewis after Tyson threatened to eat his children, Tyson announced his retirement.
TL: Whats your biggest regret? Tyson: There arent too many regrets. Maybe I should have saved my money or picked better friends. But if I didnt make mistakes, I wouldnt have learned anything. Maybe I had a little too much in life; I wasnt used to all the attention and having a lot of money. At this moment, Im content. I want more, but Im happy with my life as it is. TL: Whats your biggest accomplishment? Tyson: Getting off of drugs and getting away from a lifestyle that wasnt good for me. Getting out of prison was big too. And Im not humiliating my family anymore. TL: Talk about Cus DAmato Tyson: He was the best thing that ever happened to me. He gave me the idea that I had the ability to be great. He never held me back. He always encouraged me. He was my stage dad. He pushed and pushed and pushed and pushed. He was intense. TL: What happened in the Evander Holyeld ght to make you bite a piece of his ear off? Tyson: Awww, it was the heat of the moment, man. It happened. Look, were human beings; no wait, were animals taught to be human beings. We make mistakes and we learn. TL: Hows your personal/family life? Tyson: Right now this is the closest Ive ever been with my kids. If it doesnt get any better, Im OK. But I want it to get better; I talk to them all the time, as much as I can. TL: What about Don King? Tyson: What about him? Hey look, Im not mad at nobody. Bygones are bygones. TL: Other than Cus, who has inuenced you the most? Tyson: A lot of people have done a lot for me. Theyve worked with me; unsung heroes. Like the drug rehab people and counselors. They really helped me. TL: What advice would you offer young people today? Tyson: Find somebody you admire and respect and look up to them. Make sure they have good moral standards and a compassion for kids and their wellbeing. Too many kids have no hope for a better life. Look at the kids in Chicago killing each other. If they had hope, they would do better with their lives. TL: Ever been to Northeastern Pennsylvania before? Tyson: Scranton, man, and Jessup. I fought there as an amateur. Scranton people are my kind of people; theyre real people, hard workers. TL: Why should people go to your show? Tyson: Its a great show. I give it my all. People will like what I have to say.

DOWNTOWN
ARREST
More downtown changes
City Economic Development Director Greg Barrouk points to other development activity in older buildings around the theater: Several commercial tenants are slated to move into the Hampton Park building at the corner of East Northampton and South Washington streets, which is undergoing a $1.5 million rehab. Owner Nicholas Dye, of D&D Realty Group, said hes already sold two of the 13 condominiums in the building without marketing them. The city is preparing to issue a public request for proposals from private developers interested in overhauling three attached properties at the corner of South Main and Northampton streets, including the former Nortons dress shop. The city purchased these properties, which face the Main Street lofts above the theater complex, at prior back-tax sales, projecting they would be a key part of downtown redevelopment. Michael Taylor and his wife, Ilona, are opening Ocean Gold jewelry store in the former Frank Clark Jeweler building. Theres some momentum here, and the momentum is undeniable, said Larry Newman, executive director of the Diamond City Partnership, which supports downtown businesses. Theres been a lot of good positive activity occurring in the vicinity of Northampton and Main. Newman has a soft spot for this part of the downtown because it largely dodged demolition, particularly after the 1972 ood. This section still has the pre-ood character of the older three- and four-story buildings, 20- to 25-feet wide, Newman said. Those are the buildings that have historic character.

Nicholas Dye, left, of D & D Realty Group in Scranton describes amenities found in the upscale apartments being built in the former Hampton House building on East Northampton Street in Wilkes-Barre. Looking on is Adam Donahue of Deadline Construction Co. of Scranton, a contractor working on the renovations.
Newman and Barrouk stressed the projects unfolding around the theater involve the private funding that was promised to result from past government investment toward the theater project. Dye said he wouldnt put $1.5 million on the line for his project if he did not see an upswing. The sale of all 21 condominiums above the theater project was a driving factor in his investment. We are excited about what is going on in downtown WilkesBarre, he said. The Hampton building, which had been vacant about a decade, will have a mix of retail, ofce and residential space. The Ibop Coffee Company is set to open a coffee shop in the building in a week or two. An ophthalmologist also is locating there in the near future, and a beauty and wellness spa is opening this summer, he said. The buildings 3,700-squarefeet of ofce space will feature a hub allowing small businesses and entrepreneurs to rent individual suites with a shared receptionist to reduce overhead.
Private investment
A basement tness center for building workers and tenants also is in the works. The condominiums on the second and third oors will range from 850- to 1,800 square feet and be sold for $130,000 to $220,000, he said. The units have spa-like bathrooms. Were really trying to create a high-end urban lifestyle at an affordable price, he said. Luzerne County Councilman Rick Williams, an architect and one of the owners of the corner building next to the former tattoo parlor, said hes optimistic the neighborhood is in a revival. Were thrilled these events are happening, he said. Like changes to county government, changes to the urban fabric come in incremental little steps. Pat Reilly, who operates Downtown Dojo Karate in Williams building, which is owned by FCD Realty, said the tattoo parlor next door has been vacant since he opened his karate studio about four years ago. Im excited to hear that it sold. Id love to see some foot trafc next door, Reilly said. Reilly hopes the owners of
several empty storefronts in his row and nearby recognize the potential to attract college students, workers and theater goers and choose to invest in building improvements and marketing tenants. Michael Miscavage, the longtime owner of Top of the Slopes ski shop a few storefronts down from the karate place, said hes encouraged by activity. He and his family own three buildings in the row, including the vacant ve-story Allegheny Building. Miscavage said he was told the Allegheny was the fanciest hotel in town when it opened in 1912. He and his father operated a rooming house there. He recently updated the electrical service and has been making other improvements, though he hasnt actively sought tenants. The downtown was great, then it went downhill. It seems to be getting better with more money being pumped into the area, he said.
Owners viewpoint
Michaelene Coffee, who owns the Place One womens clothing store, celebrates the Taylors plans for the former Frank Clark
Jewelers next door and other activity around her but said the attached city-owned properties on the other side of her property are a concern. Coffee said she wants to invest thousands of dollars in a new awning with lighting for Place One, but not until the deteriorating roof of the Nortons building is repaired. Shingles from the roof have been blowing off and ripping her awning. She said a bowling ball attached to the city-owned property by a prior owner for decorative purposes also dislodged and landed on the sidewalk in front of her store. Coffee opened her business in 1991 and doesnt want to be anywhere else. Shes crossing her ngers a developer wont be put off by the repairs required to renovate the adjoining properties. It makes me sick having to look at my awning because I take great pride in my store, but Im not going to invest that kind of money in a new one until the problems next door are addressed, Coffee said. Barrouk said the proposals will determine if developers are interested in the city-owned
properties in a prime location near the theater. Real estate developer Joe Amato recently purchased the University Corners complex University Corners complex containing R/C Movies 14 and said he is attracting tenants for unoccupied storefront space, including Judd Shovals business, Ambit and Shoval. The loft-style condominiums above the complex are owned by a separate company. The city will look for mixeduse commercial and residential proposals for its properties at 69, 71 and 75 S. Main St., Barrouk said. The upper-level facades of the buildings in that cluster and the stretch containing the former tattoo parlor are magnicent, Barrouk said. We want to keep the historical look of the rest of the block and match whats been done at the movie theater site, Barrouk said. Theres a need and demand for more residential housing within the downtown, and that goes with the citys philosophy of live, work and play in downtown WilkesBarre.
is expected in court Monday. He faces up to life in prison, if convicted. The letters, which tests showed were tainted with ricin, were sent April 8 to Obama, Sen. Roger Wicker of Mississippi and Mississippi judge, Sadie Holland. Wicker spokesman Ryan Taylor said since the investigation was ongoing, the senator couldnt comment. The rst suspect ngered by the FBI was Paul Kevin Curtis, 45, an Elvis impersonator. He was arrested on April 17 at his Corinth, Miss., home, but the charges were dropped six days later and Curtis, who says he was framed, was released from jail. The focus then turned to Dutschke, who has ties to the former suspect, the judge and the senator. Earlier in the week, as investigators searched his primary residence in Tupelo, Dutschke told The Associated Press, I dont know how much more of this I can take. Im a patriotic American. I dont have any grudges against anybody. I did not send the letters, Dutschke said. Curtis attorney, Christi McCoy, said Saturday: We are relieved but also saddened. This crime is nothing short of diabolical. I have seen a lot of meanness in the past two decades, but this stops me in my tracks. Some of the language in the letters was similar to posts on Curtis Facebook page and they were signed, I am KC and I approve this message. Curtis signoff online was often similar. And Dutschke and Curtis were acquainted. Curtis said they had talked about possibly publishing a book on a conspiracy that Curtis insists he has uncovered to sell body parts on a black market. But he said they later had a feud. Curtis attorneys have said they believe their client was set up. An FBI agent testied that no evidence of ricin was found in searches of Curtis home. Curtis attorney Hal Neilson said the defense gave authorities a list of people who might have had a reason to hurt Curtis and Dutschke came up. Judge Holland also is a common link between the two men, and both know Wicker. Holland was the presiding judge in a 2004 case in which Curtis was accused of assaulting a Tupelo attorney a year earlier. Holland sentenced him to six months in the county jail. He served only part of the sentence, according to his brother. And Hollands family has had political skirmishes with Dutschke. Her son, Steve Holland, a Democratic state representative, said he thinks his mothers only other encounter with Dutschke was at a rally in the town of Verona in 2007, when Dutschke ran as a Republican against Steve Holland. Holland said his mother confronted Dutschke after he made a derogatory speech about the Holland family. She demanded that he apologize, which Holland says he did.

er place to plant some greenery. With help from Dallas Elementary School staff and Misericordia University students, they are building a greenhouse using lots and lots of recycled water bottles. Weve got 2,500 already, and we can use more, Pitcavage said on a recent Friday afternoon as her rst-grade students and some helpers from other classes slid the empty bottles (bottles had been cut off by a grown-up) onto slender pieces of lumber. The plastic will have the same kind of effect as greenhouse glass in creating a warm place to nurture seedlings. One of my goals is to beautify the school, Pitcavage said. I was a student here myself in fth and sixth grade.

If youve ever seen Fred Tallaksen somersault as he zips along on inline skates, you might wonder if he spent his youth wheeling around the hills of Scranton, where he grew up. No, the award-winning choreographer said with a laugh. I did spend lots of time at the roller rink, but I was a dancer and singer before I learned how to do all kinds of crazy stunts. Nowadays he designs movement, including some crazy stunts, for performers as diverse as dancers and musicians, aerialists and cheerleaders, BMX riders and skateTallaksen boarders and even an entire circus. If you attend the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey show in Wilkes-Barre Township this weekend, youll see his work. The Northeastern Pennsylvania native is the man behind the big production numbers and even the way the two clowns, Anton and Victor, propel forward the arc of the circus Fully Charged story. Anton keeps stealing the power, pulling the plug on the lights and causing all kinds of mischief, Tallaksen said. He learns you cant hog all the energy for yourself. You have to learn to share. Tallaksen has enjoyed sharing the limelight ever since his student days, when a part in the musical Pippin convinced him he really didnt want to go into medicine (an earlier ambition) or computer science (his major eld at the University of Scranton). Dance teacher Gail Ercoli of Jessup was the Pippin choreographer and convinced Tallaksen he had the talent to become a successful professional. She really believed in me and helped me believe in myself, said Tallaksen, who returned to Scranton this week for a hometown visit and to take his mother, Catherine Tallaksen, to the show. His mom and his late father, also named Fred Tallaksen, had envisioned a different kind of career for their son but later were happy for him as he garnered success. Tallaksen has worked one on one with Madonna and has coached a multitude of celebrities, including Selena Gomez, Gwyneth Paltrow, Enrique Iglesias, David Spade, Valerie Bertinelli, Marisa Tomei, Queen Latifah and many others. Hes been living on the West Coast for several years but now is considering a move to New York, he said. Whats next? Maybe Broadway, he said.

A cargo-truck stage highlights the peril of immigrants

NEW YORK The air inside the theater gets heavy. It gets hot, too, and the seats are not comfortable at all. By the time the show is over, you walk out thankful for a breeze and solid ground. Thats the point. The off-Broadway company Working Theater is presenting an immersive experience thats as timely as it is powerful: Its play about immigrants sneaking across the border is being staged inside a 48-foot-long cargo container. Audiences at La Ruta only 30 can t per show sit in the parked trailer on cardboard boxes as actors tell the story of a harrowing crossing for three people hidden in the freight trailer. At the end of the show, you are feeling slightly stied that is intentional, says Mark Plesent, Working Theaters producing artistic director. Its part of the experience to really make people understand the trial and tribulations of people crossing the border. The idea of using a trailer was dreamed up by the playwright Ed Cardona Jr., who also works at the Columbia University School of Social Work. His other plays have explored the lives of people who live in America illegally. I felt an obligation to write something about the journey or the sacrices and the risks these folks take just to get here, he said. The idea was to toss everybody into the trailer and to give the audience an immersive experience that they share together. Now in its 28th season, Working Theater is dedicated to producing plays for and about the working men and women of the city. It is putting on La Ruta Spanish for the road in collaboration with the Magnum Foundation, which supports the photography of social justice issues. The 75-minute show, which also includes projections, sound effects and the feeling of motion, runs until May 12 and will have made stops in four of New Yorks boroughs. The company hopes it might perform it one day in U.S. border states. The play comes as the topic
of immigration reform is heating up in the U.S. Senate, with new legislation being proposed that would dramatically remake how America treats the 11 million immigrants in the country illegally. Working Theater commissioned La Ruta as part of a recent push to produce works that examine immigrants on the margins people like domestic workers and those toiling in upstate poultry slaughterhouses. All of us, particularly in New York, rely on undocumented workers and we really never think about what it took for them to get here and what it meant for them to come here, Plesent says. I feel like they

enealogists have long looked to the Social Security Death Master File, often referred to as the Social Security Death Index, for information about ancestors. But in recent years, concerned about the costly and damaging problem of identity theft, some federal authorities have begun to push measures that would limit or even abolish public access to the le. Genealogy organizations nationwide have protested these moves, arguing that it would be more logical for federal authorities to use the master le themselves to check for fraudulent income tax returns and other scams. Some of the proposed limits, such as keeping Social Security numbers of recently deceased people out of the public area for several years, probably wouldnt hurt genealogists. But some members of Congress have argued for keeping the entire le out of public view permanently. Various bills have been proposed so far in 2013. For a summary, go to www.bcgcertication.org/blog. Recent postings on this site also address proposals to restrict other forms of records. Additionally, President Obamas proposed 2014 budget would give the Social Security Administrations top ofcials broad powers to limit public access in the future, the blog Family Tree Insider has

The greenhouse will be 6 feet wide, 8 feet long and 7 feet high with a tilted roof and, thanks to the donation of some blue bottles, students will be able to fashion a large initial D, standing for Dallas, to decorate it. Building the greenhouse offers many advantages for the children, Pitcavage said, from giving them a chance to cooperate on a project to letting them interact with visiting adults. Theyre also keeping lots of bottles out of the waste stream which is an ecological benet. If you want to save the world, the teacher said, start with the little ones.

are the invisible workers in our lives. The theatrical work actually begins in a tent next to the trailer as patrons are told to sit and wait on pallets. The audience overhears the smugglers discuss the trip it will involve other stops to pick up and drop off drugs and then they are marched into the vehicle. Three actors playing immigrants clamber into a small stage area in the back of the truck a young woman fleeing Mexico, an older woman trying to get back to her family in Arkansas after being deported, and an ex-gang member from El Salvador.
A low-level smuggler, jugs of water, a gun and a duffel bag full of drugs joins them. Next stop Dallas! the audience is told and then the truck is locked. The action switches from the front of the rig, where the driver and lead smuggler eat Twizzlers and debate the fate of their cargo, to the back,
where the immigrants share their stories by ashlight. The story does not have a happy ending. The cast includes Brian D.

ate distancing from the deep historical context and magical realism that have marked her work and charmed her readers across generations and national borders. Mayas
Narrated by troubled 19-year-old Maya, the novel traces the young womans descent from Mayas Notebook by Isabel Allende; HarperCollins (400 an offbeat childhood in a rambling house in pages, $28.99) rom the start, Isabel Allendes new novel Berkeley with her grandparents to a nightmarish life on the Las Vegas streets mixed up feels like a break from the past, a deliberwith thugs, drugs, prostitution and assassins.
mysteries of her life. Allende, who was born in Peru, raised in Chile and now lives in California, has said she wrote this book with her six grandchildren in mind, realizing she couldnt protect them from all the evils of the world. And indeed, Mayas character is written with an undertone of sympathy. Shes an open-hearted mess: angry, impulsive, funny, tumbling from one disastrous situation to another, the hot-headed runaway with scrappy appeal. Watching her character evolve from deant kid to humbled but clear-eyed young woman is a compelling journey. You want to see her emerge on the other side, older and wiser but still true to herself. Allende is kind to her readers, starting the story as Maya heads to the island, the grandmotherly rescue already a fait accompli. The ashbacks of drug overdoses, rape and criminality are brutal theyre conveyed as entries in Mayas notebook but readers already know she survived to tell the tale. Thats not to say theres no suspense. Mayas voyage of self-discovery leads to detective work involving her own family. Upping the tension is the fact that Maya is cut off from the world no email or phone calls because law enforcement agencies and killers are trying to track her down. Eventually, just as Maya begins to understand her past and adapt to the tiny, slow-paced society of the island, her two worlds collide with potentially catastrophic results. Allendes old magic works its way into Mayas story through her grandmother and the island people. As Maya opens herself to the possibilities of the island, shes invited to a midnight meeting with a group of women who may or may not be witches. She falls in mind-boggling love, feels herself dying and being re-
Notebook is a gritty, violent, cautionary tale set rmly in the present, with a tough-talking teen in the lead role and enough bad guys to ll an Elmore Leonard book.
But even with its relentlessly modern viewpoint, which might disorient some longtime Allende fans, the book offers enough familiar markers to reassure the internationally lauded authors most faithful followers while also winning her some new converts. The writing is still all Allende: driven by emotion, informed by her own multi-cultural life, framed by her brand of lyrical description. And theres historical context, too, although its less central and more personal than in some of her previous books. Narrated by troubled 19-year-old Maya, the novel traces the young womans descent from an offbeat childhood in a rambling house in Berkeley with her grandparents to a nightmarish life on the Las Vegas streets mixed up with thugs, drugs, prostitution and assassins. The painful and degrading fall is set off by the death of her beloved grandfather and a reminder of how easy the young and vulnerable can slip over the edge. Eventually, her grandmother comes to the rescue, a Chilean migr with a mystical bent who packs Maya off to live with an old friend on a remote island off the coast of Chile. Thats when Maya begins to grow up, gure out what ails her and tackle some of the central
born. Sees new horizons where once there were none. And thats where Allende uses her reliable literary tools to fresh advantage. The magical touches, which could have felt like a retread of previous books, seem new again as they play out through Mayas eyes. Some of the earlier criticisms of Allendes work still apply here. Shes not the most subtle of writers, embracing high drama every time. Love and violence, themes she has embraced before, are once again center stage. But theres a lot to like here, starting with Maya. She reminds us of the central role that luck or lack of it can play in our lives. And her slow return to a more surefooted existence shows us that sometimes, we can triumph anyway.
Elegant writing, narrative twists mark Rashs stories

By AmAndA St. AmAnd St. Louis Post-Dispatch
When a prisoner on a chain gang is sent to the nearest farmhouse to fetch water in the backwoods of North Carolina, author Ron Rash sets the scene for a sterling collection of short stories in Nothing Gold Can Stay. They span a range of years and an even wider range of emotions. Rashs 14 stories are broken into three sections and set in a variety of eras and places. He introduces a would-be hippie in the 1960s; college-bound sweethearts of today and their sad evolution into meth-heads; and a spare but touching tale of the working-class parents of a young woman serving in Afghanistan. In his opening story, The Trusty, readers are taken back to the Depression to meet a young thief facing a ve-year
sentence, and a y o u n g f a r m e r s wife facing a sentence of her own in a loveless marriage to a much older man. And soon enough, the trusty aptly named Sinkler is sinking his claws and plans into young Lucy as he plots their dual escape. An hour would pass before anyone started looking for him, and even then theyd search rst along the road. The suddenness of the opportunity unsettled him. He should take a couple of days, think it out. The grit in the gears would be Lucy. Giving her the slip in Asheville would be nigh impossible, so
Rashs 14 stories are broken into three sections and set in a variety of eras and places.
hed be with her until the next stop. But the hallmark of some of Rashs stories are twists you dont see coming, and he gives readers a doozy in his opening story. In Twenty-Six Days, the title spells out the amount of time before Kerrie, the narrators daughter, gets to come home from her military service in Afghanistan. Her father is a janitor at the local college, and her mother is a waitress at a diner. They depend on the kindness of a family doctor to talk to their daughter via Skype and accept books for her from one
of the college professors with a heart a rarity among most of the anti-war intellectuals served by both the mother and father. It is Rashs elegant understatement that gives the parents life: Over at the ATM machine, students pull out bank cards like winning lottery tickets. Probably not one of them ever thinks that while theyre sitting in a classroom or watching basketball games kids their own age are getting blown up by IEDs. Each of the stories in this collection comes to life under the power of Rashs muscular way with words, and thats what makes this book sing. Whether its a tale of a womans dowry or the fallout from a young girls drowning, the author creates a slice of life so authentic you can hear the rushing water and see the falling tears.

Hard-core hiking in Yosemite backcountry

By JOHN PAIN The Associated Press
OSEMITE NATIONAL PARK, Calif. A few loose, st-sized rocks tumbled by as we hiked down a steep mountain pass over unstable terrain, off trail deep in Yosemites wilderness. We tightly gripped the solid rock holds on the side of Stanton Pass to steady ourselves when our feet slipped out from under us.
Our guides were two of the worlds most accomplished hikers, Andrew Skurka and Brian Robinson. We were far enough from help that Skurka had reminded everyone that a serious injury here would probably mean the most expensive helicopter ride we would ever have. This was fun. Our group of six hikers had several goals for the weeklong trip. One was to get into the backcountry to be in pristine landscapes, far from the trafc and crowds of Yosemite National Parks developed areas. But more importantly, we wanted to learn skills from our guides to safely traverse wild areas where there are no trails to follow and conditions are rough. Skurka was recognized as adventurer of the year by both National Geographic and Outside magazine and is known for his solo adventures, such as a sixmonth, 4,700-mile journey by foot, skis and pack raft in Alaska and the Canadian Yukon, and the 7,775-mile Sea-to-Sea Route from the Atlantic to the Pacic. Robinson was the rst person to hike the Appalachian, Continental Divide and Pacic Crest Trails all in one calendar year: 7,400 miles in 11 months. Skurka, 32, decided that he wants to share the lessons he learned on those trips, so he started a guiding business. With the help of assistant guides such
as Robinson, he teaches everything from what to do when a grizzly bear is charging you at close range to how to keep your feet healthy after punishing them with long distances on rocky, uneven terrain. He also espouses the philosophy of only taking what you need on hiking trips. Because he likes to hike 30-plus miles during 12 to 16 hours of travel a day, that usually means carrying much less than the average backpacker. He also wants hikers to depend less on gear and more on their brains to make sure they have safe fun when venturing off trail. A few months before the trip last September, the planning began via a Google group. Skurka gave us spreadsheets to list everything we would take with us and how much it weighed, down to how many ounces a few sheets of toilet paper would add to our packs. We estimated how many calories we would realistically need to eat and took dense foods, such as protein bars, trail mix with nuts and even olive oil, which let us feel full without having too much to carry. With Skurkas help, we also researched the climate, terrain, route hazards and more, so that we would know exactly what to bring. By doing so, we knew what we needed to be prepared for and were able to stay comfortable without relying on extra gear that wed packed just in case. Skurka is a meticulous planner, so even though we had homework before the trip, he took care of all the complicated details such as printing maps, getting permits and buying and packing meals. The group going on the trip was intimidating to me for their tness: an ultra-runner in his 30s who competes in 50- and 100mile races, another ultra-runner in his 50s who barely had any body fat, a mountain climber, a man in his 50s who runs marathons in well below three hours. Ive done a lot of hiking and exercise regularly and intensely, but I spend most of my days sitting at a desk.
Banner Peak is shown in the Ansel Adams Wilderness outside Yosemite National Park in California.
But it wasnt long after we met in Yosemites Tuolumne Meadows in the High Sierra mountains that we were joking with one another and realizing there were no overzealous egos in the group. And despite their status in the hiking community, Skurka and Robinson were laid back and fun to hike with. Because we were condent that we could avoid getting lost by staying found through expert navigation, we left the trail system and explored seldom visited parts of Yosemite. We got to see places as awe-inspiring as the more famous sights in Yosemite, but there were few signs of civilization around. After about six full days hiking, we covered more than 80 miles, much of it off trail, with about 21,000 feet of elevation gain. Fortunately, we all walked out on our own, with Skurka giving some wilderness medical treatment of cuts. I ate the biggest double burger Id ever had when we got back to Tuolumne

Meadows. After the group trip, I had another week to explore the Sierras by myself. The skills I had learned made me condent in venturing off-trail into the wilderness on my own.

Hodges, Mauti reunited in Minnesota

Penn State linebackers both selected by Vikings on nal day of draft.
By DEREK LEVARSE dlevarse@timesleader.com
The wait, Gerald Hodges said, was getting a little frustrating. That held true for all of Penn States seniors on Saturday. But at the end of the nal day of the 2013 NFL Draft, Hodges was reunited with Michael Mauti, as both linebackers were selected by the Minnesota Vikings. It just took a little extra time for it to happen. Hodges went in the fourth round with the 120th overall pick. Minnesota followed that up late in the day by snagging Mauti in the seventh round with the 213th overall pick. The duo Hodges joined defensive tackle Jordan Hill, who was drafted on Friday in the third round by the Seattle Seahawks. The group that formed the heart of Penn States defense gave the school 332 players drafted into the NFL all-time. A handful of other Penn State seniors will look to catch on as free agents in the next few days. Center Matt Stankiewitch and cornerback Stephon Morris were among the most wanted of

Eagles take USCs Barkley to lead QB run in 4th round

By BARRY WILNER AP Pro Football Writer
NEW YORK This was one rush quarterbacks embraced. Starting with Matt Barkley, the fourth round of the NFL draft was the landing spot for quarterbacks who carried hopes of going much higher. Philadelphia traded up with Jacksonville to get the Southern California QB with the opening pick Saturday. I try not to get stressed about things I cant control, Barkley said when asked about his drop in the draft from likely rst-rounder in 2012 to No. 98 overall. Im just glad I know where my home is and I cant wait to hit the playbook. Yes, it was three rounds later than Barkley hoped for. Same thing for Ryan Nassib of Syracuse, Landry Jones of Oklahoma and Tyler Wilson of Arkansas, the other quarterbacks chosen in Round 4. Were going to take the best value on the board, coach Chip Kelly said, adding the Eagles rated Barkley in the top 50. Theres a prime example. The best value on the board by far was Matt. Hes an extremely mature young man, intel-
To be honest with you, I blacked out. I didnt get everything, Nassib said. What I did get from him was that rst off I had to cut my ties with the Philadelphia Eagles and switch, which wont be a problem.

ligent, articulate. He has that it factor. Perhaps. But he seemed to have a lot more of it last year, but Barkley opted to return to school. He and the Trojans slumped, Barkley injured his shoulder, and his stock plummeted. He will join quarterbacks Michael Vick and Nick Foles in Philadelphia. The New York Giants, hardly in need of a quarterback with Eli Manning in his prime, still dealt with Arizona to move up for Nassib. Nassib, from the Philadelphia suburbs, took a call from Giants coach Tom

BINGHAMTON, N.Y. Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins goaltender Jeff Zatkoff was the only reason why Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Quarternals against the Binghamton Senators didnt end in a regulation loss. And Chad Kolarik was the reason why it ended in an overtime 3-2 win for the Penguins. After Binghamton dominated most of the game, PENGUINS including overtime, Kolarik won it with a SENATORS wrist shot from the slot for his second goal of the night. After jumping out to a 2-0 rst period lead, the Penguins allowed Binghamton to take control and even things up 2-2. After the Senators scored their second goal at the end of the second period, Zatkoff stopped a urry of pucks throughout the second half of the game to maintain the tie. In the second and third periods alone, Binghamton outshot the Penguins 27-14, and Zatkoff stopped all but one. In overtime he was equally sharp, including a heads-up save on a redirect between the legs by Binghamtons Hugh Jessiman, and later a four-on-two rush that culminated in a save on a David Dziurzynski shot. Kolarik won it at 8:18 of the overtime period when he rushed up the ice with his linemates, pulled up in the slot and shot. The goal was his fourth overtime tally this year, including three during the regular season. Good players are supposed to rise to the top, Kolarik said. I know its cliche, but its the truth. Thats what I get paid for and if Im not doing it, then Im

Games latest talented catchers are able to do it all

Position is evolving with continued changes throughout baseball.

Do-everything catchers like San Francisco Giants star Buster Posey show remarkable versatility from the crouch and the batters box.

SAN FRANCISCO Fifteen years ago, shortstops such as Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez and Nomar Garciaparra changed the perception of their position from slick elders with little pop to run producers who could still hold their own with the glove. Now, its do-everything catchers such as Buster Posey, Yadier Molina and Joe Mauer, along with up-and-coming youngsters Wilin Rosario, Matt Wieters and Salvador Perez, showing remarkable versatility from both
the crouch and the batters box. Ex-shortstop Alan Trammell, former catchers-turned-managers Bob Melvin, Jim Leyland and Bruce Bochy have each seen all kinds of trends during decades in the game, and right now theyre all impressed with the latest crew of catchers. Its a lot different than when I played. Johnny Bench started it, and Yogi (Berra) before, said Leyland, manager of the Detroit Tigers. Years ago, offense wasnt as prevalent with catchers as in todays world. Similar to shortstop. Way back when, you wanted a shortstop who caught everything and you really didnt care how much they hit. Now the shortstops have become offensive players. Its just a change in the time.
Five-tool catchers have become commonplace. Their success shows in the numbers at this early stage of the season, too. For the rst time since 1977, when Hall of Fame backstops Gary Carter, Carlton Fisk, Johnny Bench were manning the position, catchers are outhitting the rest of the league. The catching position is one that for a few years here, maybe the last decade, wasnt the most prominent position, said the Oakland Athletics Melvin, reigning AL Manager of the Year. Its good to see so many good catchers you have to worry about not only defensively but offensively.

MOOSIC Take a look at David Adams stats so far in 2013 and you will think hes been one of the top players all season for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Turns out his season has gone as smoothly as his career so far to this point. Adams rollercoaster journey to this season started on a day in late March when he went from one of the top prospects in New Yorks organization to being out of a job. But the Yankees think highly of Adams which was evident in 2010 when they didnt want to send him to Seattle in a trade that would have brought pitcher Cliff Lee to New York. Because of the admiration the club has for Adams, he wasnt unemployed too long as the inelder re-signed a minor league deal with the club a few days after getting released. Still, there was an uncertainty in Adams mind. (It was) a whirlwind of emotions. Initially I was upset at myself, frustrated that I let it get to that, said Adams, who is now the starting third baseman for the Scranton/WilkesBarre RailRiders. And after that, you just get to the bottom of it and I never looked back. The 25-year-old has used the short recess from baseball as more motivation for the 2013 season. He got off to a slow start in the teams rst seven games, but since then has been one of
the best players in the entire International League. He recently concluded a team-high seven-game hitting streak in which his batting average skyrocketed from under .200 to his current mark of .333 Its just getting into a rhythm. I think thats a big key, he said. Its just constantly putting in the work and just trusting that the Lord has a plan and everything will play out the way its supposed to. Thats a similar road hes happened to come across in other years as well, starting in 2010 when he got his rst taste of Double-A ball. After being drafted in 2008 out of the University of Virginia, he skyrocketed through the organization before his 2010 campaign was derailed by an ankle injury only getting in 39 games. The same thing happened in 2011 as he was limited to just 29 games and didnt advance past High-A Tampa. I think everyone prays that injuries arent part of their career and thats one thing I try not to think about, the 25-year-old Adams said. I think anyone would say the same. I feel good and I do everything to keep myself healthy. I try to just go out and play. Once he got past the latest setback, he showed his potential last year for Trenton and then in the Arizona Fall League. First he hit .306 for the Thunder with 48 RBI and an on base percentage of .385 in 86 games. When he went to Arizona, he continued to impress batting .286 with three longballs and 15 RBI for Scottsdale to earn recognition of an AFL Rising Star. Its a nice relaxing environment going up there. You dont play every
i think to get to the big league level at any position is the goal. Then once you get there hopefully solidify a spot.
Our weekly look at the work of RailRiders president Rob Crain, who has given us back our baseball with a side order of promotions and entertainment. Have any ideas, or feedback on a recent promotion, share it with us at tlsports@timesleader.com. BEST OF THE WEEK: A staple of minor league baseball is nights for causes. The RailRiders had their rst ofcial cause night Thursday during Autism Awareness Night. You can never go wrong when you have promotions that serve your community. MISSED OPPORTUNITY: We wanted to stay away from reworks jokes, but we saw Friday reworks and 70s Night together and thought of the most infamous promotion ever Disco Demolition Night. It was July 12, 1979, when between games of a doubleheader at Comiskey Park in Chicago, thousands of disco records were blown up. At the time, a struggling White Sox team hoped to get their stadium to half-capacity. Instead, they lled the place and had thousands outside trying to get into the stadium for the shindig. When they blew up the records, an overow of wild fans stormed the eld. Fires were set. Havoc ensued. It was the 70s. OK, Rob, thanks for not going there. That might have been too much. How about a WKRP-style turkey drop instead? We didnt get it during 70s Night, but it would make a fantastic spectacle when the Mud Hens or Red Wings come to town later in the season. COMING UP: The Riders are back the rst full week of May, and Thursday, May 9, against the Indianapolis Indians is a full slate. Get there early for Thirsty Thursday. If youre there early and are one of the rst 1,000 fans, you benet from the Team Logo Socks Giveaway. Thats a particularly good thing, as its also Lost Sock Memorial Day. It was not specied if you have to lose your socks at the game or not.
CRaIN Game
David Adams RailRiders inelder
day but you know when youre going to play every week and you just go out and have fun, he added. Playing against the talent out there, its nice but at the same time you dont have to overdo it. You just go out and play baseball and thats what it should be. One potential roadblock in Adams way of reaching the Majors was taken care of last year when he moved from second to third base. With Robinson Cano locked in as second baseman for New York, Adams was moved to third. Sure, the Yankees currently have Alex Rodriguez under contract through 2017 at the hot corner, but its still more versatility for the youngster. Plus, Adams hasnt mastered the position yet and he admits he still has learning to do over there. Reading hops is still tough. I think thats the toughest part about playing third is the hops and angles, mastering those, he said. But Id like to think Im getting better every day. I think to get to the big league level at any position is the goal. Then once you get there hopefully solidify a spot. Until then, hes hoping the thrilling ride has reached its peak and is ready for smooth sailing.
SWB RailRiders inelder David Adams throws to rst base during a recent game against the Columbus Clippers.
Its the rst southern swing of the season -- eight games below the MasonDixon Line -- that will take the RailRiders into May. Heres a closer look at this weeks upcoming opponents for the Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre RailRiders. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre began an eightgame, nine-day road trip to International League South Division opponents on Saturday in Charlotte. The series with the afliate of the Chicago White Sox continues through Tuesday before the rst scheduled off day of the season. The Knights are planted in last place in the division and are losers of seven of their last 10 games despite having a few prospects ranked highly in the organization according to Baseball America. The highest-rated by the publication is 20-year-old inelder Carlos Sanchez, who is No. 3. But hes had problems so far this season batting .211 with just three extrabase hits, 15 hits and 13 strikeouts. Andre Rienzo, a 24-year-old right-hander, is the No. 7 prospect in the organization and has also got off to a rocky start. Hes allowed at least four runs in three of his four starts this season resulting in a 1-2 record and an ERA of 7.70. Catcher Josh Phegley has hit four home runs this season for Charlotte and has driven in 10 runs, while outelder Jim Gallagher is batting .346, good for ninth in the league. Once the RailRiders leave Charlotte and nish their day off festivities on Wednesday, they will take a three-hour ride to Gwinnett to visit the Triple-A afliate of the Atlanta Braves from Thursday through Sunday. Gwinnett is in third place in the South. And like Charlotte, the club possesses a highly-ranked prospect by Baseball America. The Braves best prospect on the club is left-hander Sean Gilmartin, who is rated fourth. Unlike the Knights top arm, Gilmartin has been solid so far this season for the G-Braves. In ve starts, hes 2-0 with a 2.40 ERA. Gwinnetts best pitcher to date in the campaign has been Omar Poveda, whos posted a 1.75 ERA in four starts with a 2-0 record and a 0.70 WHIP. Theres also a few familiar faces on the Braves roster in former SWB Yankee Jordan Parraz. The outelder played for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in 2011 and hasnt been in top form so far batting just .151 with three home runs in 20 games. Luis Nunez, a shortstop for Gwinnett, also played for SWB in 2008, 2009 and 2011. Hes seen minimal time for the G-Braves this season. Atlanta all-star catcher Brian McCann began a rehab assignment over the weekend playing for the Rome Braves. Atlanta manager Fredi Gonzalez said Friday that the catcher needs two weeks of rehab. So he could make a few appearances for Gwinnett later this week. Outelder Joey Terdoslavich has been the teams most consistent batter so far this season hitting .333 with four home runs and 15 RBI. And dont forget about slugger Ernesto Mejia, who leads the I.L. in home runs (8) and RBI (23), while batting .289.

He didnt make it through the rst last Saturday at Los Angeles, when he gave up nine runs to the Angels. Atlantas Justin Upton hit his major league-leading 12th homer in the eighth, but Infante doubled home a run in the bottom half and scored to make it 7-4. ST. LOUIS Russell Martin hit a two-run home run to highlight a four-run seventh inning and the Pittsburgh Pirates rallied to beat the St. Louis Cardinals 5-3 on Saturday. The comeback gave A.J.

The Pirates had three consecutive hits against Joe Kelly (0-1) to lead off the seventh and were aided by a hit by pitch.

Ruiz ready to get back with team

READING After a long day in the Florida sun the last several weeks, Carlos Ruiz would retire to his hotel room and tune in to see how his once and future team was doing without him. It denitely wasnt easy, the Phillies catcher said, leaving unclear whether the difcult part was not being able to participate or whether it was just hard to watch the product the team has put on the eld over the seasons rst four weeks. If the difculty was simply watching the Phillies play without him, that will end Sunday, when the popular 34-year-old rejoins the team in New York after his 25-game suspension for violating baseballs drug policy. If it was the way the team have been playing well, he hopes to help change that as well. Were not playing good baseball right now, Ruiz said Friday before the rst of his two rehab games with Reading at FirstEnergy Stadium. When I come back I want to do my best and see what I can do. Theres no question were struggling and more than anything else he brings a lot of leadership to our club, Phillies general manager Ruben Amaro Jr. said of Ruizs impending return. Particularly last year, I think Chooch stepped up as more of a leader on the club, and I think having him back there [behind the plate] and adding his energy will help us. It certainly cant hurt us. Ruiz, who played two games with Single-A Clearwater earlier this week, made the rst of two scheduled appearances with Double-A Reading on Friday night before a supportive crowd of 8,110 at FirstEnergy Stadium. Hitting third, Ruiz was 0-for-4 with two youts, a groundout and a line out to second in his nal at-bat. I feel great, Ruiz said. I feel good behind home plate, [and] for me thats very important. Hitting, I think I tracked the ball better the last two at-bats, so I feel real good. Coming off an all-star season in which he set career-highs in 10 offensive categories including average (.325), home runs (16) and RBI (68), Ruiz was suspended in November for testing positive for Adderall, a banned stimulant prescribed for the treatment of attention decithyperactivity disorder.

Hafners big hits leads N.Y. past Jays for the 3rd straight
NEW YORK Travis Hafner hit a three-run homer, then lumbered around the bases for a goahead triple in the seventh inning that sent CC Sabathia and the New York Yankees over the Toronto Blue Jays 5-4 Saturday. Vernon Wells delivered another key hit against his former team as the Yankees beat Toronto for the third straight day. With Mariano Rivera getting a day off to rest, Joba Chamberlain worked around a pair of one-out singles in the ninth for his rst save since 2010. Jose Bautista and Brett Lawrie homered for the Blue Jays, who dropped to 1-5 on their seven-game road trip. Hafner wiped out a 3-0 decit with his sixth home run, a long drive to center eld in the fourth off J.A. Happ. A few innings later, the slugging designated hitter broke a 4-all tie. A double by Robinson Cano and an RBI single by Wells evened it in the seventh against Esmil Rogers (1-2). Toronto brought in lefty reliever Brett Cecil to face the lefty-swinging Hafner with two outs and Wells on third. Hafner hit a high drive that ticked off center elder Rajai Davis glove as he approached the padded wall. The 35-yearold Hafner kept running and pulled into the third with a standup triple. Hafner exhaled as he stood on the bag. Captain Derek Jeter, one of several injured Yankees, laughed along with Hafner and his teammates from the dugout. Hafner has hit three triples in the last six seasons the other two came last year with Cleveland.
Orioles 7, Athletics 3
Sabathia (4-2) allowed three earned runs and nine hits in eight innings. He walked none, struck out four and improved to 14-4 overall against Toronto. Bautista hit his seventh home run, a leadoff drive in the fourth. He had been 1 for 20 lifetime against Sabathia with eight strikeouts before connecting. The Blue Jays scored another run in the fourth. Edwin Encarnacion tagged up at third on Lawries y ball to right elder Ichiro Suzuki, and was safe at the plate when catcher Chris Stewart dropped the ball while making the tag for an error. Bautista nearly homered again in the eighth, but center elder Brett Gardner caught his y at the top of the wall.

cowboys will be judged by lineman after draft move

By SCHUYLER DIXON AP Sports Writer

Continued from Page 1C
IRVING, Texas Jerry Jones ubbed the initial explanation of a rst-round draft move that puzzled analysts and angered fans. The Dallas Cowboys owner and general manager made it sound better a day later, when the teams draft performance got stronger reviews. Now the question is whether Wisconsin center Travis Frederick will play a big part in giving quarterback Tony Romo an extra half second part of Jones rationale for trading down and grabbing a lineman not really considered a rst-rounder. If Frederick fails, Jones will add to an already substantial list of bad drafts that help explain why the Cowboys have a .500 record and one playoff win since 1996. We needed and were going to get us a foundation for our offensive line, Jones said. We were concerned with going with another pick at another position there and still staying in play to get the last of the Mohicans that can do this for us, and that was Frederick. Romo called and said, Thank you for my extra half second. That is going to mean more to us than anything I can say. Pundits didnt have a huge problem with the pick. They questioned why the Cowboys felt like they had to take him at No. 31 even Frederick said he considered himself a secondrounder and why San Francisco didnt have to give up something more than a third-round pick to jump 13 spots. Draft value charts that the Cowboys helped invent were suddenly be-

ing used against them, with executive vice president Stephen Jones atly rejecting as not accurate assertions that Dallas got eeced by an old rival in the 49ers, who were coming off a Super Bowl trip, no less. The Cowboys also got hammered for not taking Florida defensive tackle Sharrif Floyd when he slid all the way to No. 18 after some projected him as high as the top ve. Dallas is switching to the 4-3 defense and gures to need more options in the front seven. But Dallas projected Floyd as more of a nose tackle, and the Cowboys
already have an expensive one in Jay Ratliff. Besides, they see the defensive line as a position of strength with eighth-year veteran Jason Hatcher and a pair of young players they consider promising in Sean Lissemore and Tyrone Crawford. The Cowboys coveted offensive guards Jonathan Cooper of North Carolina and Chance Warmack of Alabama, but both went in the top 10. Its never going to be popular when you move down, Stephen Jones said. To me, you dont play for the hoopla. Youve got to manage your draft,
and we felt like the best decision for us when certain players were off the board was to go down and do the right thing and pick up a pick, which we needed, and take a player that ts for what we need in the rst round. The key to the Dallas argument could end up being the player they got with San Franciscos third-round pick Baylor receiver Terrance Williams at No. 74. Williams was a rst-team All-American who led the nation with 1,832 receiving yards and had 12 touchdowns.

ASHBURN, Va. Robert Grifn III did a few jumping jacks, did some running in place and bounced up and down on the stage. The fans cheered. And chanted his name. And cheered some more. For many of the thousands gathered at the stadium, nothing the Washington Redskins did during the three days of the NFL draft meant more than the brief appearance by the franchise player on Saturday. The Redskins made some intriguing choices. They cornered the market on ball hawks and Florida State players whove been through careerthreatening injuries, then took a chance with Bacarri Rambo, who failed two drug tests in college. But how much it matters will likely hinge on how quickly Grifn recovers from his surgically reconstructed right knee. Im good. You guys saw me jump-
ing. I mean, I can run a little bit, he said, running in place some more. Ill be good. No worries. Ill take it slow, but at the same time Ill be ready to go. More cheers. Meanwhile, back at Redskins Park, coach Mike Shanahan and the front ofce continued to add to a team than won the NFC East last season and hopes to become a Super Bowl contender with Grifn under center. The primary task to improve was the secondary, and the Redskins landed a unique haul. They selected the last two players to lead major college football in interceptions, along with the player who nished second in picks two years ago. Cornerback David Amerson grabbed 13 with North Carolina State to lead all FBS players in 2011; he was taken in the third round on Friday night. Safety Phillip Thomas had eight last year with Fresno State; he was chosen in the fourth round
on Saturday. Rambo, a safety from Georiga, was runner-up to Amerson with eight in 2011; he went in the sixth round on Saturday. All are now members of a defense that allowed 4,511 yards passing last year, third worst in the NFL. I know that we needed a safety, Thomas said. Ive been a Redskins fan my whole life. Thomas had an anxious wait before getting the call at No. 119 overall, even though he was a consensus rstteam All-American. I feel like Im going to be the steal of the draft, he said. Thomas sat out the 2011 season with a broken left leg and dislocated ankle, but he returned last year to anchor a Bulldogs secondary that transitioned to a more aggressive 3-4 scheme. He grew up in California and went to college there, so his favoritism for the Redskins is pretty random. I saw them play one day on TV when I was younger, he said. And
that was my team ever since then. Rambo fell even farther than Thomas, going at No. 191 well below the projected slot for the 6-foot, 211-pound defensive back. Rambo failed drug tests was in 2011 and 2012, missing the season opener two years ago and the rst four games last year. His high school coach said both failed tests resulted from inadvertent brushes with marijuana, adding that Rambo unknowingly ate marijuana-laced brownies last year. It was a very selsh decision, but I grew from it, Rambo said. It just helped me put my priorities in order and just take every moment as it comes. It helped me be a better person and be mentally strong. Still, he paid the price by falling to the back end of the draft. I thought everybody had forgot about me, man. It was very hard because I felt like a lot of those guys wasnt near the guy I was, he said.

not doing my job. During regulation, the Penguins scored twice in the rst period thanks to hard work and a little deception. Brian Gibbons connected during the Penguins rst power play of the night. Brian Dumoulin gained possession at the point and sent a shot that was veering wide of the net. Gibbons raced into the crease as the puck arrived and redirected it past Binghamton goaltender Nathan Lawson for a 1-0 lead at 10:58. It was the rst postseason goal of Gibbons career. Five minutes later Kolarik made it 2-0 after two Binghamton defenders converged on Trevor Smith as he skated the puck into the low slot. Kolarik snuck in wide open, picked up the lose puck and whipped it over Lawson. The Senators made it 2-1 on their rst power play with less than a minute remaining when Shane Prince skated out in front and backhanded a shot past Jeff Zatkoff. Binghamton almost evened this up when rookie Cody Ceci blasted a slapshot from the point that deected off Zatkoffs skate just after the buzzer sounded to end the period. While Cecis shot didnt beat the whistle at the end of the rst period, the Senators did squeeze a crucial goal in at the end of the second. While both teams exchanged plenty of scoring chances during an up-tempo period, the Penguins coughed the puck up one too many times. At the midway point Brian Gibbons allowed a turnover right in front of the net but was bailed out by a nice save from Zatkoff. With less than three minutes remaining, Binghamtons Mark Stone stripped the puck away from Philip Samuelsson in front of the net and slid the puck between Zatkoffs skate and the post to even thing up, 2-2. Head coach John Hynes excused Samuelsson for the miscue. Those things happen in a game. Guys arent going to be perfect for 60 minutes, he said. But I really like the way he rebounded. The Senators pressured in the rst half of the third period, but Zatkoff kept them off the board, stopping a Price shot in close and a Brett Lebda point shot through trafc. The Penguins struggled to get going through the rst 12 minutes as Binghamton beat them to pucks, forced turnovers and outshot Wilkes-Barre/Scranton 10-2. The pressure resulted in a Binghamton power play when Warren Peters was whistled for slashing at 11:05. The Penguins killed off the power play but Binghamton kept the pressure on, but Zatkoff stood tall and stopped all 13 shots in the period to force overtime.
catchers
On-base percentage plus slugging percentage (OPS) for catchers through Wednesdays games was .732, compared to .712 for all players. And catchers slugging percentage of .417 is the second highest ever for the position since at least 1974, the rst year STATS broke out statistics by position. To me, its the best crop of catching probably in I dont know how many years, said Bochy, the San Francisco skipper. When you look around baseball and see all the great catchers in the game today, its changed a little bit. Theyre better athletes now, theyre better offensive players. Its always fun to see the gifts and talents of guys like Posey and Molina. For a 34-year span from 1978 to 2011, catchers underperformed their counterparts with an OPS of .707 compared to .737. Over the last two seasons, however, they have been nearly equal .720 for catchers, .723 for everyone. Nine catchers had batting averages .300 or above in the rst month through Wednesday. Sure, its a small sample size, yet this group of backstops has people taking notice. There seems to be a little run right now for catchers, Diamondbacks bench coach Trammell said. Its good for baseball. As a fan of the game, you appreciate the talent. Everyone in baseball will tell you the No. 1 component behind the pitcher is the catcher. If youve got a good one, youd better keep him. Coaches and managers also point to
the improved athleticism and strength at the position. In the 26-year-old Poseys case, the Giants are building their franchise around him. They gave him a $167 million, nine-year contract before the season began. Buster is the top of that class, Rockies veteran rst baseman Todd Helton said. If you have a good catcher, their hitting is just a bonus. Its kind of like having a shortstop batting fourth for you, like we have (Troy Tulowitzki). It doesnt happen that often, and when it does, its just a luxury. You have guys at those positions that are usually just defensive positions that are now offensive threats. As a fan it makes the game that more fun to watch, and Im sure it makes it a heck of a lot easier to manage if youre the manager. He doesnt have to tell Bochy. After Posey started 111 games at catcher last season and another 29 at rst base, Bochy can envision Posey playing even more behind the plate this year though the Giants arent inclined to change much from what worked well last year, Bochy said in reference to spelling Posey with the starts at rst. It seems like theres a decent amount of catchers that are swinging the bats well and playing good defense, Posey said. I think youre kind of seeing more guys, offensive catchers, playing a little bit of rst or outeld, which probably helps in the long haul. Posey, the reigning NL MVP and batting champion, has set the bar as far as opposing managers are concerned, especially those in the NL West who see him regularly. The 2010 NL Rookie of the Year suf-
fered devastating, season-ending left leg and ankle injuries in May 2011, then came back better than ever last season to help San Francisco capture its second World Series championship in three years. Even Bochy was surprised by Poseys resiliency. Then, to hit .336 and become batting champion and MVP. Being a catcher, I appreciate the gift that he has and how hard he works to leverage the gift he has and continue to try to get better as a player, Bochy said. Its hard to imagine that can happen, but it can with this guy, and hes just going to have a tremendous career a guy thats going to be talked about for a long time. The Cardinals know they have a pretty good one themselves in Molina. Among the rst things St. Louis pitcher Shelby Miller did following his second career start April 6 at San Francisco was thank Molina for guiding him through the rough innings on the way to a win. The Cardinals catcher insists thats just one part of his job a mindset shared by others who pride themselves in being well-rounded. Its no longer just about signaling balls and strikes, or running out to the mound to offer a pitcher a pep talk. This bunch throws out base runners and bats in key spots. Baseball changed, Molina said. Right now, were trying to do it on both sides.

Fifteen years ago, shortstops such as Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez and Nomar Garciaparra changed the perception of their position from slick elders with little pop to middle-of-lineup run producers. Now, its do-everything catchers like Baltimore Orioles catcher Matt Wieters, above, showing remarkable versatility from the crouch and the batters box.

erything on the MVP, on the World Series, on the contract. Its well-deserved, Molina said. Rosario, Colorados second-year starting catcher who clobbered 28 home runs last season, admires Posey and Molina from the opposite dugout. He aspires to keep up. Rosario also points to Minnesotas Mauer, retired 14-time All-Star and 13time Gold Glover Ivan Rodriguez and former Yankees star Jorge Posada for setting the example of catchers contributing in multiple ways. Rodriguez nished his 21-year big league career as a .296 hitter with 311 home runs, while Posda batted .273 with 275 homers in 17 seasons.
Joe Mauer, Pudge Rodriguez and Jorge Posada, they started to hit very well, and now things changed, Rosario said. Other catchers they came to the majors for good defense, not for good offense. Young catchers or rookie catchers, we need to hit. Steady hitting is just one more thing on a long list of responsibilities along with handling pitchers. Just follow a catcher around from the beginning of spring training until the end of the season. Theyre tough, not just physically but mentally, Arizona manager Kirk Gibson said. Its kind of a thankless job. These guys go out and run the show. Theyre special people, they really are.

Goodell does spot for movie

NEW YORK Lights, camera, action. A few minutes before the real NFL draft began its nal day Saturday, Commissioner Roger Goodell stepped to the podium and announced: With the rst pick in the 2014 NFL draft, the Cleveland Browns select Vontae Mack, linebacker, Ohio State. Huh? For good measure, he did it a second time, too. Relax, Browns fans, its for a movie. A lm crew has been hanging out at Radio City Music Hall, along with a few actors, to record scenes for the picture. The movie is about the general manager of the Cleveland Browns (Kevin Costner) struggling to gain the No. 1 pick in the draft to save the franchise. Also featured in the lm are Jennifer Garner, Ellen Burstyn, Denis Leary, Frank Langella and Chadwick Boseman currently appearing as Jackie Robinson in 42 as Vontae Mack. WILLIAMS WORLD: In case anyone wondered, there were more than enough players drafted with the last name of Williams to put together an 11-player unit. A total of 14 Williams were picked 10 who play defense, four who play offense. None has the same rst name. Any public address announcer would enjoy introducing this lineup: Sylvester Williams, defensive end (No. 28, Denver) Terrance Williams, wide receiver (No. 74, Dallas) Shawn Williams, strong safety (No. 84, Cincinnati) Brennan Williams, offensive tackle (No. 89, Houston) Brandon Williams, defensive tackle (No. 94, Baltimore) Duke Williams, free safety (No. 105, Buffalo) Trevardo Williams, defensive end (No. 124, Houston) Jesse Williams, defensive tackle (No. 137, Seattle) Steve Williams, cornerback (No. 145, San Diego) Tourek Williams, defensive end (No. 179, San Diego) Vince Williams, linebacker (No. 206, Pittsburgh) Michael Williams, tight end (No. 2011, Detroit) Nicholas Williams, defensive end (No. 223, Pittsburgh) Kerwynn Williams, running back (No. 230, Indianapolis) ANOTHER PERFECT PASS ROUTE: Josh Boyce is one lucky wide receiver. He caught passes from Robert Grifn III in high school (Copperas Cove in Texas) from Andy Dalton in college (TCU) and now hell be a target for Tom Brady. The speedy wideout was New Englands fourth-round pick on Saturday, No. 102 overall, and Boyce knows hes one fortunate pass catcher. All three of them are great guys, great quarterbacks, Boyce said. Ive been blessed to play with great quarterbacks my whole career. ROLL IVY: This was one special draft for the Ivy League. Known for turning out doctors, lawyers, economists and presidents, the league saw three of its players picked in the three-day NFL draft. That may not sound like many, but consider this: in the past six draft, NFL teams picked a total of three players from the league, And the winners are: Cornell tackle J.C. Tretter, a fourth-round pick (No. 122) by Green Bay. Harvard running back Kyle Juszczyk, a fourth-round compensatory pick (No. 130) by Baltimore. Princeton linebacker Mike Catapano, a seventh-round pick (No. 207) by Kansas City.
Penn State linebacker Gerald Hodges does an interview during 2011 media day in State College. Hodges was a fourth-round pick, No. 120 overall, by the Minnesota Vikings.

available Nittany Lion, as both are reportedly set to sign with the New England Patriots. Other Penn State free agents include QB Matt McGloin, FB Michael Zordich, OT Mike Farrell, DE Sean Stanley, DE Pete Massaro and DT James Terry. But Saturday was about the linebackers. And it started with Hodges. Never bashful about his NFL aspirations, Hodges was getting particularly antsy on this afternoon. Rated as a potential second-day selection in the second or third round coming out of the combine, the dynamic linebacker was still on the board when Friday night ended. As the rst handful of picks went by on Saturday, Hodges got sick of watching the TV and waiting for his phone to ring. So to relieve some stress, he went to take a quick shower. And naturally As Im getting out of the shower, I hear my phone ringing, Hodges said in a
conference call with Minnesota media. And I wasnt in a rush to get to my phone because I didnt know what it was. I get over here and I see Minnesota, and I looked at the board and saw Minnesota was up in two picks. And I just started crying. I just couldnt believe it. Its a blessing. He would be even happier a few hours later when learning his running mate Mauti would be joining him. Mautis talent and leadership could have earned him as high as a second-round selection, right in the same range as successful predecessors Paul Posluszny and Sean Lee. All of that was overshadowed by three ACL surgeries in ve years for Mauti at Penn State, the latest coming in late November. And while Mauti has had an especially speedy recovery by all indications, it wasnt enough to overcome that sort of injury history. Hes the guy who held it all together up there hes deserving of a chance in this league, former Buffalo Bills and Indianapolis Colts architect Bill Polian said on ESPN. Tough, hard-nosed player.
Smart. Very, very tough. Mauti said Saturday that he expects to be ready to go full speed by the time training camp opens in July. Thats my goal, and thats where I plan on being, Mauti said on a separate conference call. Hodges and Mauti give Penn State nine active linebackers in the NFL, joining Posluszny, Lee, NaVorro Bowman, Dan Connor, Tim Shaw, Josh Hull and Nate Stupar. And now two of them will be playing together in Minnesota, coached by Hall of Fame linebacker Mike Singletary, their new position coach. I think it should be illegal for me and Mauti to be on the same team again, Hodges exulted on his Twitter account. But hey I dont make the rules we just abide by them!
Add one more to the list
One other familiar name came had his name called on Saturday. Former Penn State wideout Justin Brown was drafted in the sixth round by the Pittsburgh Steelers with the 186th overall pick. Brown transferred to Oklahoma over the summer.
Syracuse quarterback Ryan Nassib (12) was drafted by the New York Giants in the fourth round of the NFL Draft on Saturday.

phia Eagles and switch, which wont be a problem. Oakland, which acquired Matt Flynn from Seattle in the offseason to be its starter, followed two picks later at No. 112 overall with Wilson. Three spots after that, Pittsburgh grabbed Jones, probably hoping to groom him behind Ben Roethlisberger. I just think it was time to start grooming a new player, freshen up the room if you will, quarterbacks coach Randy Fichtner said. I get to learn from one of the best quarterbacks to play the game, Jones added. Before Saturdays surge, quarterbacks were rare only one was chosen in each of the rst three rounds: Florida States EJ Manuel by Buffalo in the rst round; West Virginias Geno Smith by the Jets in the second; and North Carolina States Mike Glennon by Tampa Bay in the third. A former quarterback,
Denard Robinson of Michigan, is headed to Jacksonville, which had one of the leagues worst offenses the last two years. Robinson will be switched to running back or receiver by the Jaguars; he set the NCAA record for career yards rushing (4,495) by a quarterback. A lot of people have put me at different positions, he said. Now its time to go to work. South Carolina running back Marcus Lattimore, who would have been a high pick if healthy but is coming off a second severe knee injury, went to the 49ers 131st overall. San Francisco can afford to redshirt Lattimore because it has a strong stable of runners, including Frank Gore, Kendall Hunter and LaMichael James. We really havent even talked about that, so I dont have any clue, Lattimore said about possibly sitting out 2013 to heal completely. My main goal right now is to go in there and work hard, go in there and learn the offense, and if Im ready to play, Im going to play, and if Im not, Im not.
Lattimore, who dislocated his left knee and tore three ligaments last season, said he spoke with Gore during his rehab. And now Im with the 49ers, and its just a great, great situation for me, Lattimore said. Special teamers nally got the call when three kickers went in the fth round: punters Jeff Locke of UCLA to Minnesota and Sam Martin of Appalachian State to Seattle, and placekicker Caleb Sturgis of Florida to Miami. National champion Alabama, which had four players chosen previously three in the rst round had four more go on the nal day: linebacker Nico Johnson to Kansas City with the pick after Barkley was taken; guard Barrett Jones, who can play all offensive line positions, to the Rams; and DTs Jesse Williams to Seattle and Quinton Dial to San Francisco.

nAnTICoke Tony korch and katie Charles ran to easy victories in the Race for a Cause 5k Run on saturday at Luzerne County Community College. korch, 53, of nanticoke, used the hills to his advantage en route to his win in 18 minutes and 27 seconds. he outran second-place nisher, nick weron, 20, also of nanticoke, by 1:04. wade Joline, 18, of Berwick, nished third, eight seconds behind weron. I didnt push the rst downhill, said korch. I let everybody go. Then there is an uphill, about a half mile in length. Thats when I pushed and took the lead about a quarter of a mile into the race. korch continued to push. I pushed the rest of the way, korch said. I wanted to put as much distance between myself and the rest of the eld so I had a good lead in case things got close down the home stretch. As it turned out, korch had nothing to worry about. I had (korch) in my sights for a while,said weron, who ran cross country for nanticoke Area high school and now runs the same sport for LCCC. But at mile 2, he started pulling away. There was no catching him. There was no catching Charles another runner who knows how to run hills either. The 26-year-old from Atlanta
won the female division of the race in 22:49. she held off second-place nisher, Lizzie Dyer, 15, of Berwick, for a 14-second win. emily Crawford, 20, of Bloomsburg, nished third, 16 seconds behind Dyer. hills!, said Charles. This is my rst race in over a year. I ran Boston last year. But Ive been out of action for a long time. I ran 5ks in college in 19 (minutes). Today, I just ran as good as I could. I have to get back in shape. Charles was in town for her grandmothers ( marion wilson) funeral and dedicated the win to her. Its hilly like Atlanta, said Charles, who ran the steeplechase for kennesaw state University. were known for hills and humidity in Atlanta. In fact, I work for the Big Peach running store. And the stores motto is, heat, hills and humidity welcome to Atlanta. Charles had good things to say about her young opponent. (Dyer) is a good runner, Charles said. she passed me about a mile and a half into the race. I thought she had me there for a while. But I was able to catch and pass her around mile 2. notes: Dyer runs cross country and track for Berwick high school. her specialty is the 1miler. Crawford ran track for Central Columbia. korch didnt run in school. hes been running for about 20 years.
wade Joline just nished his nal season running cross country for Columbia montour Vocational Tech. his 15-yearold brother, marcus, also runs cross country for the Rams. Proceeds from the race go to local charities. Charles after landing at the airport in Philadelphia was impressed with the City of Brotherly Loves beautiful buildings. she said, The scenery, on the way up to wilkesBarre, was beautiful.

Bulls sack Nets in triple OT

Grizzlies 104, Clippers 83
CHICAGO Nate Robinson scored 34 points, and the Chicago Bulls wiped out a 14-point decit late in regulation and beat the Brooklyn Nets 142-134 in triple overtime Saturday and take a 3-1 lead in the rst-round playoff series. The Bulls were trailing 109-95 with less than 4 minutes to go in the fourth quarter when Robinson put the Bulls on his back and carried them to the wild victory. He scored all but ve of his points after the third quarter, including the rst 12 in a 14-0 run that wiped out that decit. Then, with 2 seconds left in the rst overtime, he banked in what looked as if it would the winning jumper over Deron Williams. Instead, Joe Johnson answered with one of his own to tie it at 121 and send it into a second overtime. The Bulls had a chance to win it in the closing seconds, but Joakim Noah got blocked, and the game went to a third overtime tied at 127. The Bulls then nally took control for good after Williams (32 points) drove for a layup to pull Brooklyn to 133-130 the only points for him after regulation with 3 minutes left in the game. Luol Deng answered with a basket to make it a ve-point game, and Nazr Mohammed came up with two baskets in the nal 32 seconds to help preserve the win. He scored on a jump hook, then grabbed the rebound and scored with 19 seconds left after Carlos Boozer made a free throw and missed the second, making it 140-134.

Butler went a combined 0 for 10 from the oor in being shut out. Game 5 is Tuesday night in Los Angeles. The team that controls the boards has won each game of the series so far, with Memphis owning a 45-28 advantage in Game 4. That led to a 22-2 scoring difference in second-chance points, boosted by a 13-5 edge on offensive boards. The Grizzlies used their prowess on the glass to beat the speedy Clippers when it came to fast-break points, 18-6. Memphis biggest advantage is its big men, and Randolph and Gasol each took turns helping the Grizzlies turn this into a best-of-three series. Randolph had 16 points and seven rebounds in the rst half as Memphis got off to a quick start, leading 33-25 after the rst quarter. Gasol scored 18 in
the second half, using an effective jumper to avoid the paint after picking up his third foul with 7:54 left in the third. Randolph got his third 7 seconds later. It didnt matter. The Clippers never lead by more than two, the last at 60-58 on a pair of free throws by Paul with 5:58 left in the third. Gasol then hit a 23-footer that beat the shot clock and made a pair of free throws to put Memphis ahead. Ronny Turiafs layup tied it for the sixth and nal time. Gasol found Randolph for a layup that put Memphis ahead to stay at 64-62 on the 10th and nal lead change with 3:21 left in the third. Memphis blew it open with a 19-5 surge at the beginning of the fourth and went up as much as 20, the rst on a drive by Pondexter with 3:45 left.

Rangers avoid 8th place, top Devils

NEW YORK Henrik Lundqvist made 20 saves in coasting to his second shutout of the season, and Rick Nash scored twice for the playoff-bound New York Rangers in a 4-0 victory over the New Jersey Devils on Saturday in the regular-season nale for both teams. The Rangers still had to wait to nd out who they will face in the rst round of the playoffs, but they know it wont be the top-seeded Pittsburgh Penguins. The Rangers avoided nishing eighth in the Eastern Conference and will be either the No. 6 or 7 seed. Derek Stepan and Ryan Callahan both had a goal and assist in the rst period against backup goalie Johan Hedberg, who gave Martin Brodeur a rare game off. One year after reaching the Stanley Cup nals, the Devils will head home early after failing to make the playoffs. Unsympathetic Rangers fans serenaded the Devils with chants of Seasons Over as the nal minutes ticked down. Lundqvist was hardly tested in earning his 45th NHL shutout. The Rangers, who wrapped up their third straight playoff berth with a win at Carolina on Thursday, went 10-3-1 in their nal 14 games. Hedberg made 17 saves in
the matchup of Swedish goalies. New Jersey was shut out for the fourth time, all in the nal 12 games. The Rangers started quickly, seemingly determined to get out of eighth place and avoid the Penguins in the rst round. Callahan picked up right where he left off Thursday when he scored the overtime goal that got New York back into the postseason. The Rangers captain moved back and forth behind the New Jersey net and shifted the puck from backhand to forehand before throwing the puck out front to the waiting Stepan, who unleashed a lightning-fast one-timer that beat Hedberg just 2:37 in for his 18th goal. The pair would team up again in the nal minute of the period while Taylor Pyatt served a questionable hooking penalty. Stepan intercepted the puck from Devils defenseman Marek Zidlicky and send a lead pass ahead to Callahan for the shorthanded breakaway. Callahan darted from side to side as he raced in on Hedberg, and deked enough to open up the goalies pads to slip the puck in with 58.8 seconds left in the period. It was Callahans 16th goal of the season, and nearly his second short-handed tally of the game. Just over 6 minutes in, while
Jones could be top pick
Rangers forward Carl Hagelin was off for tripping, Callahan got past Ilya Kovalchuk in the New Jersey zone and came in alone on Hedberg, but his stuff attempt was denied at the right post. The Rangers look much better while killing penalties than on their one power-play chance in the rst. After taking a 7-1 lead in shots early in the period, New York nished with only a 9-8 edge. Nash garnered the Rangers third short-handed break of the game with 6:55 left in the second, but his rush was thwarted by the back-checking Kovalchuk, who got his stick in on Nashs hands forcing the Rangers forward to his knees and having him push the puck wide of the net. Nash would connect with 2:37 remaining after the Rangers won a faceoff in the New Jersey end. Brad Richards sent a pass from behind the net out to Nash, who snapped off a wrist shot from the edge of the left circle for his 20th goal of the season. Nash made it 4-0 at 5:30 of the third when he whipped a shot from the slot past Hedberg off a feed from Mats Zuccarello. CHICAGO -- Amid a hectic week as a Nets assistant coach,
New York Rangers Derek Stepan (21) celebrates with his teammates after scoring a goal during the rst period Saturday against the New Jersey Devils at Madison Square Garden in New York.

helping the team through a tough playoff series, Popeye Jones did have a few moments to be a proud father. His son, Seth, a defenseman, was ofcially named the No. 1 North American prospect for the National Hockey League draft by the Central Scouting Bureau. That put the younger Jones, 18, in position to be the rst African-American to be hockeys top overall draft pick. All three of Jones sons took up hockey when he was playing for the Nuggets and the family
lived in the Denver suburbs. All of the kids played street hockey. When it got cold, all the kids said they were going inside to play ice hockey, the dad said. Just being a sports guy, growing up playing basketball, football and baseball, it didnt matter what sport they played. Sports are meant to be fun. Seth quickly became a stand-
out. This season, he led the United States to the World Junior Championship in Russia. His Portland Winterhawks team also is in the playoffs, having made the WHL nals. He is considered a complete player -good skater, physical defender, hard shooter, solid passer. Popeye thinks the 6-4, 205-pounder could have been a point guard.

Problems with Susquehanna are all wet
PGC hopes to reverse alarming trend

Ofcials arent sure exactly how many northern ying squirrels remain in Pennsylvania, but they do know there arent many. And theyre also concerned that in the near future, there could be none. The diminutive creature is one of two ying squirrels in the state. The southern ying squirrel, which is smaller, has been expanding its range northward and creating a multitude of problems for the northern species. Greg Turner, an endangered species biologist with the Pennsylvania Game Commission, said the northern ying squirrel has been found in only three locations -- the Poconos, and Potter and Warren counties. Although he isnt sure exactly how many remain, Turner said that, since 2001, only 38 have been captured out over more than 700 nest boxes that biologists use to live trap the squirrels. Still, Turner said more data needs to be collected before a thorough population analysis can be performed. For now, he can only base his conclusions on the current surveys of nest boxes, which is giving a glimpse at the severity of the situation. When you look at the survey effort that it took to capture an individual in Pennsylvania and compare it to other states where they survey, such as West Virginia, our ef-
When you look at the survey effort that it took to capture an individual in Pennsylvania and compare it to other states where they survey, such as West Virginia, our effort to capture an animal is ve to 10 times greater than the work it takes to capture one in West Virginia. That indicates our populations are lower.

fort to capture an animal is ve to 10 times greater than the work it takes to capture one in West Virginia, Turner said. That indicates our populations are lower. Turner added that the northern species, which prefers older growth forests with a
heavy coniferous component such as red spruce or hemlock, used to be found across the entire northern tier of the state. Now, despite increased survey effort, were nding them at only a few sites, he said. That suggests theyre pretty rare. The reasons for the decline are many. Turner points to habitat loss as a main contributor. As forests become more managed, northern ying squirrel densities have become lower, he said. The changes in the forest have reduced the amount of natural cavities and the mycorrhizal fungi that is their main food source. That loss of old growth coniferous habiSee SOARING, Page 15C
AFTer reAdiNG The Chesapeake Bay Foundations report on problems facing smallmouth bass in the Susquehanna river, my conclusion was the same as its always been. its the water. heres a quick recap on the situation: Over the last 10 years, fish kills of smallmouth bass in the river have been documented. Populations have plummeted, disease has devastated young-of-year bass and adults have been found covered with black spots, sores and lesions. According to the report, a parasite has been found in dead juvenile bass in the river. The parasites possible host is a bottom-dwelling worm that may thrive in the raised levels of phosphorous and nitrogen pollution. The smallmouth bass population has collapsed in the river from Sunbury to Maryland. While the north branch hasnt seen the same degree of devastation, dead sh and those with black spots have been found here. Not surprisingly, catch rates of smallmouth bass in the river have fallen by 80 percent from 2001-05 in some areas.The Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission has been forced to restrict the shery in some lower counties to catch-and-release only. Thats troubling from an environmental and an economic standpoint. Phosphorous and nitrogen pollution levels are extremely high in the areas of the river where dead and/or sick sh have been documented. Thats a correlation. in the Susquehanna river and its tributaries, average phosphorus pollution levels in 12 of 24 sites monitored by the U.S. Geological Survey between 2007-11 were among the worst in the Chesapeake Bay watershed. And 11 of these 24 sites had total nitrogen pollution levels that were among the worst in the region. Scientists link these pollution levels to an increase in the growth of parasites, along with feeding algae blooms that in turn raise ph levels and lower dissolved oxygen in the water. Those factors can kill bass. But if environmental reasons arent enough to motivate action, perhaps money is. The report states that smallmouth bass shing generates $630 million annually in Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia. Additionally, smallmouth bass are responsible for $193 million annually in salaries and wages for about 5,700 people employed in shing-related jobs and $41 million in state and local tax revenues. Thats signicant. recently, the state department of environmental Protection said it would increase efforts to study pollutants in the river, which is ne. But the agency needs to do more. it has to declare the Susquehanna

Caught on camera
Capture anything interesting on your handheld or trail camera? A nice buck, bear, coyote or anything unique? Wed love to see it. Each week, well run a photo from a readers trail camera on the Sunday Outdoors page. Email your photo, along with date and area it was taken (township is ne) and any other details to tvenesky@ timesleader.com. While were on the subject of ying squirrels this week, Fredrick Voelker captured this one on his trail camera one April night in Bear Creek Township. Voelker admits he didnt know what the creature was at rst,
but the eyes and tail gave it away. Still, I didnt know if the animal was the endangered northern ying squirrel or the more common southern variety, so I asked PGC biologist Greg Turner
to solve the mystery. He was pretty condent the squirrel is the southern variety. By the way, ying squirrels are nocturnal, which is why the photo was captured at night.

trD recalls engines after Kenseths penalty

glover extends his lead at Zurich Classic

RICHMOND, Va. A parts review by Toyota after Matt Kenseths penalty led the manufacturer to pull three engines from Michael Waltrip Racings inventory as a precautionary move. All three engines recalled were earmarked for Clint Bowyer. One was his engine for Saturday nights race at Richmond; the other two were his primary and backup engines for Talladega. The review found that there was at least one connecting rod in each of the three Bowyer engines that left TRD uncomfortable in the wake of Kenseths issue. NASCAR found this week that one of the eight connecting rods in Kenseths race-winning engine from Kansas did not meet the minimum weight requirement. The engines are made by TRD out of Costa Mesa, Calif., and then shipped to Joe Gibbs Racing and Michael Waltrip Racing in North Carolina. The teams unpack the engines and install them in the cars, and have no access to the parts or pieces inside. Still, NASCAR levied harsh penalties against Kenseth and JGR that essentially stripped the team of everything but the trophy.

Keselowski rallies in nationwide race

By HANK KURZ Jr. AP Sports Writer
RICHMOND, Va. Brad Keselowski ducked underneath Kyle Busch to take the lead with 10 laps to go Friday night and won a wild NASCAR Nationwide Series race at Richmond International Raceway. Keselowski had to hold off a nal charge from Kevin Harvick, but after Harvick closed within a few car lengths, Keselowski kept him at bay and slightly expanded his margin in the nal laps to win the three-way dual among some of NASCARs most aggressive and daring drivers. Youre racing the best and you know if you make a mistake, theyre going to beat you, Keselowski said. The dueling included Keselowski passing Harvick on the
outside with about 40 laps to go, and Busch passing them both on the outside for the lead with about 25 laps to go before the last two of eight cautions, the nal one ending with 11 laps to go. I thought it was pretty darn good, Keselowski said. I was grinning the whole time. I had fun and Kyle raced me really well, and so did Kevin. I think this is what racing is supposed to be like side-by-side and just little touches, but not big ones. It was a great race all the way around. The victory was the 21st of Keselowskis career in the series and second on the 0.75-mile oval. We had a fast car at the end, Keselowski said. It was just a matter of putting it in the right position.
Harvick, who led four times for a race-high 96 laps, was followed across the nish line by Busch, whose streak of three consecutive victories in the series came to an end. Brian Vickers was fourth, followed by Regan Smith. All in all, it was a fun night, Harvick said. He just had a better car for the short runs. The duel with Busch and Keselowski seemed as enjoyable to be part of as it was to watch. On any night its fun when you can race like that, Harvick said. The race nished with a skirmish on pit road between the teams of season-long rivals Brian Scott and Nelson Piquet Jr., with Scott saying his team was upset because Piquet ran him into the wall while ghting for 15th place late in the race.
AVONDALE, La. Lucas Glover increased his lead to two strokes in the Zurich Classic to remain in position for his rst victory in two years. The 2009 U.S. Open winner shot a 2-under 70 on Saturday to reach 14 under at TPC Louisiana. Kyle Stanley, Jimmy Walker, Billy Horschel and D.A. Points were tied for second. Stanley had a 65, Walker and Horschel shot 66, and Points had a 70. Guan Tianlang, the 14-yearold Chinese amateur, shot a 77 to drop to 2 over last among the 71 players who made the cut. He tied for 58th two weeks ago in the Masters after becoming the youngest player to make the cut at Augusta National, and will play in a U.S. Open qualier in two weeks. Kevin Stadler was 11 under after a 65 matching Stanley for the best round of the day. Boo Weekley, a stroke behind
Glover entering the round, salvaged a 73 with a two-putt birdie on the 18th to nish at 10 under.
North Texas Shootout
Legends of Golf
IRVING, Texas Carlota Ciganda shot a 5-under 66 to take a two-stroke lead over the worlds No. 1 player and an LPGA Tour rookie into the nal round of the inaugural North Texas LPGA Shootout. Ciganda had only one bogey in the third round. Even after driving right into a concrete drainage ditch on No. 12, the Spaniard hit the half-submerged ball out of the water to about 10 feet and made the birdie putt. She was at 11-under 202 after her second 66 of the week. SAVANNAH, Ga. Roger Chapman and Jay Don Blake teamed to shoot an 11-under 61 to take a one-stroke lead in the Champions Tours Legends of Golf better-ball tournament.
throughout the year, the May and June events call more attention to the importance of shing in the lives of many Pennsylvania families. Through the events, former and new anglers can try shing at no cost. We know that once people try it, particularly kids, they will see that shing is a great recreational activity and they will want to do it more. Family Fishing Festivals are educational events designed for families with little or no shing experience to have fun shing together. Families will learn basic shing skills and have an opportunity to practice those skills while shing during the program. Family Fishing Festivals will be hosted by the PFBC at these locations: May 4 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.: Gifford Pinchot State Park, York County. May 11 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.: Blue Marsh Lake, Berks County. May 18 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.: Keystone State Park, Westmoreland County, Pavilion No. 1. June 8 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.: Bald Eagle State Park, Centre County. June 22 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.: Lake Arthur, Moraine State Park, Butler County. June 29 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.: Lackawanna Lake, Lackawanna State Park, Lackawanna County. The PFBC is waiving the shing license requirement during the program for registered Family Fishing Festival participants 16 and older. The program is open to all ages, including children ages 5 and up. The PFBC is providing equipment, bait and tackle. PFBC staff will be present to teach skills and assist those who sh. Advance registration is required. Visit www.TakeMeFishingPa. com to register or learn more about these events. Space is limited, and there will be no registrations accepted the day of the event. In addition, PFBC partners will be hosting events throughout the month. These events can also be viewed at this website.

two rCr crew members arrested for post-race ght

RICHMOND, Va. Nelson Piquet Jr. was involved in a postrace altercation that led to the arrest of two crew members for Richard Childress Racing, his team said Saturday. Piquet and RCR driver Brian Scott tangled on the track during Friday nights Nationwide Series race and in the pits after. Crews for both drivers confronted each other when Scott went over to Piquets car, and Piquet
shoved him and then kicked Scott in the groin. When I went to talk to him, he just pushed and shoved me and then kicked me below the belt, Scott said after the race. Its just a chicken move. Henrico County police said there was a ght in the motorhome lot that led to the arrests of two crew members. Michael Searce was arrested on two charges of misdemeanor assault, and Thomas Costello was
arrested on one count of misdemeanor assault. They were released early Saturday. Several members of another race team confronted a group that included Nelson Piquet Jr., resulting in the arrest of two individuals from the other race team, Turner Scott Motorsports said in a statement. Team owner Richard Childress said his crew members were on their way home when the incident occurred.
Our team members were walking to their cars and words were exchanged with members from another team, which led to an altercation, Childress said. I am still learning all the exact details and, because it did happen outside of the track, and local authorities became involved. We are working with them to resolve this matter. We are now concentrating on winning the Sprint Cup race (Saturday night).

tat -- from timber practices or disease such as wooly adelgid, has led to another problem - the expansion of the southern ying squirrel. Turner said the species out-competes its northern counterpart for habitat and carries a roundworm parasite that is deadly. Ive noticed through research Ive done that this parasite is found in every southern and a good number of northern ying squirrels here, but where there arent any of the southern species, the northerns in those areas dont have the parasite, Turner said. Dr. Mike Steele, who is a biology professor at Wilkes University, has conducted extensive research on ying squirrels and said the expansion of the southern species is creating yet another dilemma for the endangered northerns. Hybridization. In areas where the southern and northern species overlap, Steele said genetic testing conducted in Ontario and Pennsylvania indicated that the two species are hybridizing. The loss of red spruce and the hemlock to wooly adelgid has brought the southerns and northerns in closer contact, Steele said. Its an indication of how the environment is changing in Pennsylvania. And its why Steele is alarmed at the fact that around three dozen northern ying squirrels have been found in Pennsylvania over the last 15 years. So what can be done? Turner said the PGC is trying to increase red spruce in areas inhabited by the northern ying

squirrel and expand the coniferous growth to provide more habitat and increase the amount of fungi in the forest. Steele said more funding is needed to conduct additional research to nd existing populations and protect them. In 2011 Steele published a book, Terrestrial Vertebrates of Pennsylvania: A Complete Guide to Species of Conservation Concern that includes 133
species in the state that are at risk. He said when it comes to severity, the northern ying squirrel is in the top three among mammals. The northern ying squirrel is a state endangered species and it was always restricted to certain habitats, Steele said. But now its declining to the point where were close to losing it in the state.
River -- at the very least the lower segment, as impaired under the federal Clean Water Act. Such a move would direct more resources needed to solve and address the problem and, hopefully, save the smallmouth bass. Its a move that shouldve been done long ago. For the last couple years PFBC executive director John Arway has been pleading with DEP to list the river as impaired. The action would conrm what we all know there is something wrong with the water. When you have sh covered in sores and lesions, unprecedented algae blooms, skyrocketing levels of phosphorous and nitrogen and a shery on the verge of collapse, there is only one place to look. The water. With the summer shing season right around the corner, there is almost 100 miles of the lower Susquehanna River where bass season will be pretty quiet. Its an area that was once a world-class smallmouth shery, and one that could expand into our region. The next step to prevent and remedy the situation is simple: admit that there is something wrong with the water, declare the river impaired and put more money and time toward xing the problem. The Chesapeake Bay Foundations report is yet another plea to get this done.

Dear Neighbors,
As a part of the Dallas Township and Luzerne County communities since 2005, Masonic Village is proud to serve those within and beyond our walls. Whether it is through financial support or as a site for community members and residents to learn and grow, Masonic Village seeks to use its resources to help those who need it most. As a not-for-profit organization, we have the benefit of being tax-exempt. Thanks to the benevolence of our donors and our desire to contribute to our community, we were able to sign a payment in lieu of taxes (PILOT) agreement with Dallas Area School District, Dallas Township and Luzerne County in 2012. This agreement ensures that these three authorities will receive more than $680,000 over the next 18 years.
About Masonic Villages

Masonic Villages provides retirement living and other services to individuals in Elizabethtown, Lafayette Hill, Sewickley and Warminster, Pa. In 2012, through the charity of Pennsylvania Freemasons and their families and others who have contributed to its Mission, the Masonic Villages provided services worth more than $27.3 million across the state to individuals unable to pay for their care.
Also through this agreement, Masonic Village will make its meeting facilities available for use by staff from the school district, township and county. Working with local schools and universities, we welcome students seeking internships and job shadow experience. If you have a question or suggestion about any of Masonic Villages community or resident services, please contact us at the phone number above or through our website, www.masonicvillages.org. We look forward to opportunities to work with and support our broader community in the future.
Noah Davis, executive director
2012 COMMUNITY BENEFITS SUMMARY

In 2012, Masonic Village generated expenditures of more than $42,800 in the local economy through contracts with 16 businesses. Although a not-for-profit organization, Masonic Village financially supports other charitable groups, including the Meadows Nursing Center Auxiliary and Dallas Fire and Ambulance, Inc., as well as local schools. In October, Masonic Village hosted a free Medicare 101 workshop open to the community in time for the annual Medicare enrollment period. Throughout the year, in partnership with Misericordia University and Genesis Rehabilitation Services, Masonic Village coordinated a free Healthy Aging Series which covered topics including the Modernization of Alzheimers Disease, Fit and Healthy Basics and Maintaining Balance. The community was also invited to take part in a flu vaccination clinic, estate planning seminar and a Tai Chi for Arthritis program. Residents contributed to community service projects, including Trinity Presbyterian Churchs Backpack Project to benefit the Child Development Center. The program gives children a backpack full of food to take home for the weekend to ensure they have enough to eat until they return to school on Monday. It also provides gifts during the holiday season, such as warm clothing. Additionally, residents volunteered to bake for St. Vincent de Paul Kitchen, help with Meals on Wheels and play piano for the Good Time Singers and at local long-term care and rehabilitation communities. Throughout my internship, I was given the opportunity to build my professional portfolio with multiple informative pieces which I created, along with gaining experience in planning and executing events. Some of these events revolved around the residents and engaging them in various community activities. Other events were aimed at bringing in potential new residents through social mixers and open houses. Something truly unique to Masonic Village at Dallas is the sense of community between the staff and residents. Joy Hubshman and the rest of the staff at Masonic Village at Dallas treated me very well and allowed me independence in my work. They treated me as an equal and made my time with them extremely enjoyable. Kaitlyn Molteni, a senior communications major at Misericordia University, interned with Masonic Villages marketing department during the summer of 2012. She is shown above with residents Morgan and Maureen Lewis during a photo shoot for Masonic Village. I cant overstate the importance of [volunteer] work both to the community and in our lives. Keith and I have been blessed in many ways and we know that it is our duty to help those who are in need. But, for us, the duty is a pleasure and we get more back than we can ever give. For many of the [Meals on Wheels] clients, I am the only person they will talk with that day. To see needy people sit down to a delicious meal prepared and served by friendly, smiling folks gives more me joy than I can say. Masonic Village at Dallas resident Annie Smith and her husband, Keith, volunteer approximately 21 hours a month assisting Meals on Wheels and baking cakes for St. Vincent de Paul Kitchen.

franchises give small-business owners chance for growth

By ViRGiNiA BRidGES MCT Wire Service
emmy Preiss and Harriet Mills launched their wine and Design franchising empire after a road trip to south Carolina that involved at least two bottles of wine and two great paintings. we went and had a girls weekend there, Mills said. and the rest is history. That history includes opening the rst wine and Design in Raleigh, n.C., in March 2010 and franchising the business a year later. since then, Preiss, 31, and Mills, 32, have acquired 26 franchisees in north Carolina, south Carolina, Virginia and new york. Franchising is one path that smallbusiness owners can take to expand their business. Franchising is perhaps a faster way to grow than growing based on their own capital and the credit market, said Ritchie Taylor, an attorney and shareholder with Manning Fulton, a Raleigh law rm. Franchising includes replicating a business through manuals, software and other systems, meeting state and federal requirements, and recruiting franchisees who invest their own capital. successful franchisers constantly work to improve their brands, create and test new products, and support franchisees, Taylor and others said. when you become a franchiser, you are making a massive commitment to other people to help them get up and provide for their families and their children and their wealth building,

The Dallas resident also teaches safe driving for aaRP and is a volunteer at the DFw ambassador program, which assists travelers at Dallas/Fort worth International airport. For alberts, life couldnt be happier during these senior years. I consider it a good time of my life, that I have good health, he said. when you have good health, everything is possible. you have quality of life. If you want to live a healthy life in old age, how you view aging can make a signicant difference. experts and studies say certain age stereotypes held by seniors can affect their health for better or worse. For example, when seniors see themselves as useless, helpless or devalued, theyre less likely to seek preventive medical care and more likely to suffer memory loss and poor physical functioning and to die earlier. a person whos depressed might not be eating properly, they may not take their medication properly, they may fail to pay their bills on time, and that can all inuence their health and their ability to maintain independent living, said Debi weiner, coordinator of gerontology services at jewish Family service of Dallas. In a study reported on last year in the journal of the american Medical association, researchers at the yale school of Public Health and the yale school of Medicine found that older people with positive age stereotypes were 44 percent more likely to fully recover from a severe disability than those with negative age stereotypes. a lot of how old someone acts and how old someone physically is has a lot to do with how old they feel they are mentally, said Katie Dickinson, associate executive director at the senior source, who conducts a presentation on living to be 100. There are lots of studies that say that people who feel that theyre healthy are healthier. Bert Hayslip, a psychology professor at the University of north Texas, said seniors should think positively about how their years have made them wise and experienced. Heres someone with these unique skills, these unique qualities, who may have internalized this sense of well, what I can expect? Im old, said Hayslip, who specializes in gerontological counseling. Its important they see aging in a more positive but realistic manner, appreciating what is unique about them and what they can contribute to other people, he said. you might serve as a mentor to someone whos younger, Hayslip said. That also addresses another critical need for seniors social engagement and interaction. The only way youre going to have things to look forward to is if you get out and do things, Dickinson said.

ample, that uses a digital milling machine for a skateboard business, cutting three longboards from a $30 sheet of Baltic birch in 40 minutes. The technologys exibility and forgiving economics are particularly attractive to hardware startups that are using digital manufacturing for rapid prototyping and small-scale production of their goods. They say making a prototype with a 3-D printer can save thousands of dollars over handing off the work to a design company. Its awesome, said Alan Hurt, founder of Light Up Africa, a local startup whose device attaches to a moving object, such as a bicycle, and captures enough kinetic energy to charge a cellphone. I never knew it was possible to make products at little or no cost. Hurt borrowed a 3-D printer from Inventables to make prototypes of his product while participating in Impact Engine, a Chicago-based accelerator program for startups with a social or environmental mission. The digital fabrication technology he used was a major improvement over his earliest efforts, which involved fashioning a lunchboxsize case from plastic clipboards that he bought at Wal-Mart and cut apart. The ability to quickly and inexpensively make quality prototypes also allows startups to experiment without running up a huge bill. Theres something about being able to hold and physically interact with a design that feels more real and allows you to get feedback more directly than looking at a 3-D image on a screen, said Eduardo Torrealba, co-founder and CEO of Oso Technologies, a company started by engineering graduate students at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Oso makes sensors that measure soil moisture content and send alerts to a computer or mobile phone when plants need to be watered. The startup went through nearly 10 versions of its Plant Link sensor prototype using the 3-D printer at UIs mechanical engineering laboratory. In February, Oso raised nearly $97,000 on crowd-funding website Kickstarter. The startup will use 3-D printing to create a small run of Plant Link sets for Kickstarter donors who want to get their hands on the products sooner. But Oso will mass-produce the majority of its sensors through an Illinois manufacturer. The proceeds from the Kickstarter campaign will pay for the injection mold needed for that process. We havent totally thrown away the idea of doing production in Asia at some point, Torrealba said. But for the short term we want to stay local and keep production in the United States, if its possible economically. People respond to that.
solar panels puzzle would-be buyers

By Troy WolverTon San Jose Mercury News
This house is an example of ultra efcient home design, meaning a home that is so energy efcient it can support a family of four for a year with no energy costs.

ith solar panel prices plunging and generous tax credits and incentives still available, now may be as good a time as any to go solar. But shopping for a solar power system can be a tough task. Consumers face a bewildering array of options. There are thousands of different solar panel models from dozens of manufacturers. In some regions, consumers can choose from among hundreds of different panel installers. And once they pick their panels and a contractor, they have to gure out how to pay for their system from among several different methods. It can be pretty daunting and overwhelming with the number of installers that are installing solar systems these days, said Drew Lowell-Britt, an energy specialist with EcoMotion, a consulting rm that advises cities, companies and other organizations that are considering or trying to promote solar power. Solar power experts and those who have shopped for systems have plenty of suggestions on how to make the process more manageable. The rst thing to assess, they say, is just how much energy youre using and the extent to which you can reduce that amount. The size of the system youll install is largely determined by how much energy you use. By reducing your energy consumption, you can get away with a smaller and less costly system. Thats what San Jose, Calif., resident Brian Friss found when he shopped for a solar power system. Just by being more conscious of turning off lights and the television and unplugging portable electronics when theyre done charging, Friss said his family has reduced its power bill by about $100 a month. And now they are looking at getting a signicantly less expensive solar power system than they initially expected. Our big mistake early on was not understanding our usage, said Friss,
SOLAR SHOPPING TIPS
Shopping for a solar system can be a daunting process. Here are some things to consider. Sizing up your needs: With solar power systems, their size, cost and the time needed to recover your investment are largely determined by how much power you use. You can save money by reducing your consumption before installing a system. Picking panels: Panels are rated by their efciency. More efcient panels tend to be more expensive, but you can potentially use fewer of them or they can take up less space on your roof. Other things to consider are how quickly they are expected to degrade, the length of their warranties and what the warranty covers. Choosing a contractor: Manufacturers websites list contractors by ZIP code. You can check with your state to see which contractors are licensed. Because regulations differ by city, nding a contractor with experience in your area can be important. Experts suggest comparing bids from three or more contractors and checking their references. Figuring out nancing: Consumers can pay for a system up front, take out a loan or sign a long-term lease agreement. Many experts recommend buying over leasing, because the time to pay off is shorter. But leasing agreements often involve no upfront costs and can offer immediate savings on electrical costs.

39, the co-founder of Digistor, a professional data storage company. Panels are rated for their efciency and their electrical output. Todays panels tend to range in efciency which measure the percent of solar energy that the systems convert into electricity from about 14 percent to 20 percent or more. If you go with more efcient panels, you can use fewer or smaller panels than if you use less efcient ones. But the more efcient panels tend to cost signicantly more than the less efcient ones. But efciency and output arent the whole story. Consumers can also take a look at panels degradation rates and their warranties. As they age, solar panels typically produce less electric-
ity; each model has an expected degradation rate, which manufacturers also provide. Theoretically a more efcient panel could end up generating less electricity than a less efcient one in a few years if it degrades more rapidly. While 25-year warranties are starting to become the norm, consumers should check the terms of the warranty, what it includes and what it doesnt, said Mike Foster, acting manager for green building and energy programs for the City of San Jose. In terms of picking a contractor, experts suggest that consumers talk with at least three before settling on one. Because each city has its own regulations and permitting process for solar installations, its important to nd a contractor who has experience in a particular area, experts say. They also recommend checking references and consumer review sites such as Yelp to nd the right installer. Most experts suggest that consumers buy their systems, rather than choosing other payment options. The payoff for doing that tends to be much shorter, and consumers can immediately start enjoying free electricity. But the vast majority of systems these days are installed under leases or power-purchase agreements, where homeowners dont own the panels placed on their roofs, but instead agree to purchase power generated by them from the installer. Such plans are attractive, because often they dont require consumers to pay any money up front, but offer the promise of lower electricity rates immediately and in the future. Experts caution consumers, though, to carefully examine the terms of such contracts, which can last 20 years. Many include charges that escalate over time, which could leave consumers paying more money for their power than they would if they stuck with their regular utility. Certainly not all customers can save money this way, said Mindy Spatt, a spokesperson for The Utility Reform Network, a consumer advocacy group. Some may. For others, they may be a really bad deal.
said Doug Schadle, chief executive and co-founder of Rhino7, a franchise sales and development rm in Apex, N.C. Before exploring franchising, small business owners need to polish their business models and systemize what they are doing, Taylor said. They should also be prepared to spend time and money to create the required documents and support systems for franchisees. Franchisers can spend between $20,000 and $100,000 in startup expenses and a legal process that takes three to six months, Taylor said. It is not an insignicant investment, Taylor said. But the opportunity is cheaper also than opening up a second location on your own. When small business owners are ready to franchise, they should start by reaching out to a qualied franchise attorney or consultant to discuss the suitability of their concept and read books on franchising, said Taylor, who recommends Franchising for Dummies, co-authored by Wendys founder Dave Thomas. Franchising is a regulated industry, governed by federal and state franchise relationship laws, and if a business owner fails to make the proper disclosures, he or she could face civil and criminal penalties, Taylor said. The process includes building the required franchise disclosure agreement, which must be provided to prospective franchisees; establishing franchisee fees and royalties that make sense for both the franchiser and the franchisees; and creating a variety of business systems and training programs. The most successful franchisers in the U.S. are models in which the owner doesnt deliver the service directly but manages the process of delivering a strong service or product, Schadle said. In 2009, Preiss was a stay-at-home mom who had previously worked for her husbands college housing business, and Mills was laid off from her job at Vietri, a Hillsborough, N.C., dinnerware company. During a trip to Charleston in January 2010, Mills and Preiss went to a paint and party business. After drinking some wine while painting, Mills, who describes herself as unartistic, said she painted better than Preiss, who often paints. If I can do this, then we are taking this back to Raleigh so anybody can do this, Mills recalls she said. The duo opened Wine and Design with the goal of creating a party atmosphere with music and adult beverages, but at the same time, we wanted everybody to leave with a good painting, Mills said. In the fall of 2010, Preiss and Mills opened a second location in Wilmington, N.C., but the pair had a hard time managing a store so far away while raising kids, they said. They later sold the business to a franchisee. That December, Mills and Preiss decided to give in to the ongoing franchise inquiries. There was so much interest, we just decided, Hey, why not take a shot at this? Mills said. The pair met with Taylor and spent the next three months creating the more than 150-page franchise disclosure document and related manuals. Now it is the Wine and Design for Dummies manual, Mills said, describing the document. You can have that manual and literally open up within 60 days.

Once you get out and do things, youll have things to look forward to, and thats going to make you feel better mentally, and it will also make you feel better physically because youre more involved. If a senior is homebound and cant get out to see other people, they have to come to him or her, Weiner said. Family members and communities need to remember that people need contact, she said. They need social contact with other people, and if someone is unable to get out, then people need to come in. Alberts said he has a rich social life that includes seeing his grandchildren and members of the opposite sex. Im single. I have women in my life, he said.

TECH DIVIDENDS The stereotype of tech companies as money-losing playgrounds for foosball players is dead. Check out the list of the countrys top dividend payers. Apple pays $11.5 billion annually in dividends, enough to cover the New York Yankees opening-day payroll 50 times over. Of the 20 biggest dividend payers, five are technology companies, according to S&P Dow Jones Indices: Apple, Microsoft, Intel, Cisco Systems and IBM. To send checks out to shareholders every three months means the companies need to be generating lots of cash. Apple reported net income of $9.5 billion last quarter, and Microsoft made $6.1 billion.

BIG CARTS To describe Amazon.com requires a lot of big numbers. It generated $61.1 billion in revenue last year and purports to have Earths biggest selection of products. But its big size means Amazon.com needs to find new markets to move the needle on its revenue growth. Its a lesson that Apple is learning: the iPhone maker has grown so big that its $4.4 billion in revenue growth last quarter was its weakest since 2009 on a percentage basis. So, what new markets are big enough? Maybe grocery deliveries, say Nomura analysts. Theyre looking for Amazon.com to roll out its Amazon Fresh business, which it has been testing in the Seattle area.
SMALLER BITES Saving for kids future college tuition bills can feel like an impossible task. At least 529 accounts are getting cheaper. These accounts help savers avoid taxes on investment gains, and the expense ratios for mutual funds found inside them have been dropping. The average large-cap value stock fund in a 529 account has an expense ratio of 1.40 percent, down from 1.52 percent in 2011, says Morningstar. The mutual-fund researcher cites two reasons for the decline: an increased emphasis on index funds, which tend to have lower costs, and aggressive negotiations by the states that sponsor the plans for lower expenses.

Title: Manages two Wells Fargo mutual funds, Advantage Common Stock (SCSAX) and Advantage Opportunity (SOPVX). Outlook: Corporate executives will remain cautious about hiring.
A three-month grounding of Boeings 787 Dreamliner may be drawing to a close. The company is installing redesigned batteries in its flagship plane and is aiming to resume deliveries in early May. The 787 was grounded worldwide in mid-January because no one could explain the smoldering batteries on two planes. Once the Federal Aviation Administration approves the battery fix on individual planes, airlines can start flying them again. Planes that cant fly sounds about as bad as it gets, yet Boeing stock is up 22 percent this year. Thats twice the 11 percent rise of the Standard & Poors 500 index.
Boeing: clear skies?
Yields, mortgage rates fall
At the time of the grounding, only 50 787s had been delivered, limiting any compensation owed to customers for the planes being out of service. Despite the 787s troubles, Boeing reported Wednesday that its net income rose 20 percent in the first quarter. Long term, Boeing has plenty going for it. There's growing demand from the worlds airlines for more planes to expand their operations or replace older planes with modern, fuel-efficient aircraft. The company has a steady stream of revenue locked in with a backlog of orders for more than 4,400 planes. That includes 840 787s.
InterestRates
Treasury yields sank last week following a weaker-than-expected report on economic growth, and the yield on the 10-year note fell to its lowest level since December. Lower Treasury yields tend to pull down rates on various consumer loans, and the average rate on a 30-year fixed mortgage dropped last week to 3.4 percent. Thats its lowest level in 14 weeks, according to Freddie Mac.

Boeings steep climb has helped fuel a 12 percent rise in the Dow Jones industrial average this year.
Look at the latest jobs numbers and its clear the economy is making a slow comeback. Marchs gain of 88,000 jobs was the smallest in nine months. The unemployment rate fell to a four-year low. But the decline was only because more people stopped looking for work and were no longer counted as unemployed. One reason hiring slowed was the across-the-board government spending cuts that kicked in last month. So when will hiring really start to pick up? Ann Miletti isnt expecting a hiring boom anytime soon, based on her frequent conversations with executives at mid-sized companies. Miletti manages two mutual funds, Wells Fargo Advantage Common Stock and Advantage Opportunity. In her search for investment opportunities, Miletti routinely visits corporate executives to see what theyre thinking. What have you been hearing about economic expectations during your recent meetings? Management teams are somewhat cautious because they still see a slow growth environment. But weve been hearing a bit more of an optimistic tone. Certain industries have picked up recently, mainly housing and energy. Why wont that translate into a surge in hiring? Managers are typically saying, Were comfortable our business is the right size with the right number of people. Were focused on our profit margins. If were going to remain in a slow-growth environment, the stock market will punish us for spending in anticipation of growth that wont materialize. On the positive side, Im hearing fewer executives talk about uncertainty on health care policy, and the expenses from President Obamas health care overhaul. Its less of an excuse than it once was to hold off on hiring. The excuse Im hearing now is, We need to see better growth, and maybe then well feel better about hiring people. You recently visited Texas, which is experiencing growth as a result of new energy drilling technologies. Do you see the energy boom as a catalyst to increased hiring? I can see energy becoming a much bigger part of the U.S. economy going forward, depending on what plays out in the expansion of pipeline networks. If the government lifts some restrictions on new pipelines, you may see more jobs created. Energy is an area where we continue to see investment opportunity, and energy stocks are relatively undervalued compared with the broader market. What about the housing recovery? Do you see that as a catalyst? We wont return anytime soon to the level of housing activity we saw at the housing markets peak in the middle of the past decade. But employers could become more comfortable about hiring if excess housing inventory diminishes and housing starts return to a normal level. Answers edited for content and clarity.

Stock Screener
Investors looking for income often focus on stocks with high dividend yields. But they should also pay attention to how much cash those companies are generating, suggests J.P. Morgan strategist Thomas Lee. A strong cash flow means the company has greater ability to increase its dividend in the future, buy back stock or invest in future growth. Apple, for example, has generated $35.9 billion in

What are the pros and cons of I Bonds? P.M., Shenandoah, Iowa I Bonds are savings bonds offered by the federal government, with inflation-adjusted interest payments. They feature limited risk (the U.S. government is known to be reliable), tax advantages, small investment amounts (as little as $25) and protection against inflation. Interest can even be taken tax-free if used for educational expenses. On the downside, the bonds interest rates are low these days at 1.76 percent recently and due for a semiannual adjustment on May 1. That beats most savings accounts or CDs, though. Youll also lose some moolah if you cash out early (within five years), and over the long haul, money tends to grow much faster in stocks than in bonds. Per data from the folks at FundX, stocks outperformed bonds in every 25-year period between 1925 and 2011, with stocks averaging an 11.4 percent annual return and bonds averaging 4.3 percent. Still, bonds remain a valuable way to diversify and strengthen a portfolio. I Bonds can protect your money, but theyre not likely to make you rich. Learn more about bonds at treasurydirect.gov, bondsonline.com and investinginbonds.com. *** How can I find out what Social Security benefits to expect in retirement? T.N., Manteo, N.C. The Social Security Administration (SSA) used to annually mail out a record of your earnings history and estimates of the benefits you may qualify for now or later. Those mailings have now ceased for folks under 60, but you can look up the information at ssa.gov/mystatement. Remember that you can get bigger or smaller payments by starting your benefits later or earlier than your expected retirement age.

The I Bond Scoop

Beware of the Experts

Some have accused professional mutual fund managers of being no better at picking stocks than a dartthrowing chimp. Thats insulting to chimps, though. In any given year, the majority of professional fund managers underperform their benchmark index a virtual certainty given a limited amount of return to capture and an unlimited amount of fees to charge. For example, in 2011, 84 percent of U.S. stock fund managers underperformed the S&P 500 index, according to Standard & Poors. Thats bad enough, but dig deeper and it gets far worse. It turns out that the overwhelming majority of professional fund managers focused on the minority of stocks that underperformed the market. It takes skill to be that bad. (Per S&P Capital IQ data, the average stock that rose more than 2.07 percent returned 20.4 percent, while the average stock below that threshold fell 16.6 percent.) This isnt rare, and it extends beyond fund managers to Wall
Street analysts. According to Bloomberg, The 50 stocks in the S&P 500 with the lowest analyst ratings at the end of 2011 posted an average return of 23 percent (in 2012), outperforming the index by 7 percentage points. Meanwhile, fees make the situation worse. In one report, IBM concluded that global money managers overcharge investors by $300 billion a year for failing to deliver returns above a benchmark index. Vanguard cites data by the Financial Research Corp. showing that the single best predictor of a funds future performance is its expense ratio (essentially an annual fee). A common rebuttal is that, while money managers underperform an index, they are better at managing risk and lowering volatility. But studies have shown that the average mutual fund closely tracks the ups and downs of the overall market. Some professional managers can beat the market and earn their fees. The majority cant. If you dont have the time or inclination to manage your own money, youre likely to do best buying a passive, lowcost index fund.

My Dumbest Investment
The Motley Fool Take
Plowed Under
In 1968, during a lunch with three salesmen at an airport, we sat next to some Japanese men. They recommended investing in shares of Toyota. I bought 5,000 shares at a dollar apiece, and the stock soon began paying 5 percent dividends annually. In the early 1980s, my Toyota investment had grown to $38,000, and I sold it and invested in some friends farmland in Arkansas. Well, due to mismanagement, I lost all that money in Arkansas. Im not sure I really want to know, but I do wonder what I would have made leaving the money in Toyota. A.J.M., Normal, Ill. The Fool Responds: You would definitely have been better off sticking with Toyota. Its stock has averaged annual gains of about 7 percent over the past 20 years. A key lesson here is the danger of putting too many of your eggs in one basket. If you werent sure about the future performance of either Toyota or the farmland, you might have split the money between them or instead sought some investments in which you had greater confidence. Do you have an embarrassing lesson learned the hard way? Boil it down to 100 words (or less) and send it to The Motley Fool c/o My Dumbest Investment. Got one that worked?

Big Green From Big Blue

Shares of IBM (NYSE: IBM) rarely trade at bargain levels, but its a great company trading at a reasonable valuation these days with a 1.6 percent dividend yield, to boot. Its also one of the most valuable brands in the world. More than 100 years old, IBM is the original information-technology company, adept at adapting to changing times. It has morphed from a hardware company to one focused more on software and services, earning higher profit margins. Some see IBM primed to become a leader in cloud-computing-based IT services now, and CEO Ginni Rometty is also moving the company into mobile computing technology. Its shareholders cant complain, as the companys stock has averaged returns of 9.5 percent annually over the past 30 years, and 16.5 percent over the past 20. It earns high marks for social and environmental responsibility, and provides energy- and water-management software solutions to other companies. IBM isnt perfect, though, as its long-term debt does top $20 billion. Thats not ideal, but its generating more than $15 billion in free cash flow annually. The company has been buying back lots of shares, too, thereby boosting the value of remaining shares. (The Motley Fool owns shares of IBM.) Oops! Department: We recently said that Microsofts Windows 8 system is in the works. We should have said Windows Blue.

I trace my roots back to 1902 and the Dayton Dry Goods Co., which later became Daytons department store. In 1962 I launched a discount chain that bears my current name. Its logo evoked marksmanship or perhaps hypnosis. Today, based in Minneapolis, I have more than 1,800 stores in the U.S. and Canada and more than 360,000 employees. I rake in more than $70 billion annually. Since 1946, Ive donated 5 percent of my pretax profits via community grants and programs that tops $4 million per week. I pay a lot of attention to design in my offerings. Who am I?

Employee free to leave abusive boss

By Marie G. Mcintyre McClatchy-Tribune News Service
Q: The verbal abuse that I receive from my boss has been escalating for several years. About once a week, he begins shouting, cursing and banging on my desk. He starts criticizing my work, then brings up issues from my personal life. Every time this happens, he eventually calms down and wants to work things out. We always reach an agreement about how he is going to change, but before long he blows up again. His erratic behavior is beginning to affect my performance, which only makes the situation worse. I have tried to resign for the past three years, but he always talks me out of it. He owns the business, so there is no one else who can help. I am feeling very depressed and dont see how I can endure this much longer. a: Has it occurred to you that this relationship is exactly like an abusive marriage? Your boss bullies you, you threaten to leave, he promises to change, you agree to stay, then he bullies you again. This is the same vicious cycle that abused spouses experience. The big difference, however, is that leaving a job is much easier than leaving a marriage.
Perhaps, like many abused spouses, you have developed an enmeshed relationship with your abuser. Or maybe he has made you feel so worthless that you fear no one else will hire you.
Therefore, the real key to your problem lies in the statement, I have tried to resign for the past three years. In reality, you are free to depart whenever you like, so staying must provide some kind of emotional payoff. Perhaps, like many abused spouses, you have developed an enmeshed relationship with your abuser. Or maybe he has made you feel so worthless that you fear no one else will hire you. But regardless of the reason for your reluctance, you need to screw up your courage and get out of there, because no one should tolerate that kind of treatment. Q: I have a co-worker with a very bad attitude who routinely shirks her job duties. My boss frequently complains about Jackie and asks me for advice on how to handle her. This week, he went one step further and said that I am now responsible for monitoring
Jackies performance. How am I supposed to do that when Im not her supervisor? a: I dont know whether your manager is wimping out or making a reasonable attempt to solve a problem. But I do know that turning you into a monitor will never work unless everyone clearly understands your role. And since Jackie is unlikely to welcome this peer oversight, she deserves an explanation from her boss. First, you must ask your manager exactly what he wants you to observe, how he expects you to do so, and how frequently he would like feedback. Then he needs to meet with you and Jackie together to clarify his expectations and answer any questions she may have. When Jackie has performance issues, as she undoubtedly will, your boss is the one who should discuss them with her. But if you are expected to handle these coaching conversations, then you have become her supervisor and should be given an ofcial promotion.

Its Arkansas state legislator Nate Bell tweeting, I wonder how many Boston liberals spent the night cowering in their homes wishing they had an AR-15 with a hi-capacity magazine? as the hunt for bombers closed that city down. Before that, it was that man in Florida who committed suicide because Barack obama was re-elected. And so-called patriots in the woods plotting against the government.

understanding of who we are and what that means. It is that test this country fails now with regularity. We cant even agree on who we are anymore, so swamped are we by the rage red holds for blue. the road to Civil War began 153 years ago as Southern states, led by South Carolina, passed ordinances of secession from the union. But, as a nation is more than just geography, so, too, is secession therefrom. the act represents a tearing away that is as much spiritual and emotional as it is geographic. maybe even more. So if the likes of you and mr. Bell are right, if it is really beyond us now even to stand shoulder to shoulder with stricken fellow citizens, then we have lost more than bombs could ever destroy. And secession has already occurred.

OTHER OPINION: CRIME
he BoStoN marathon bombings have reminded Americans that we can never let down our guard against terrorism. But mayor Nutter has rightly pointed out that the daily carnage from violent crime in the nations cities also demands attention. Nutter wants to see violent crime, like terrorism, attacked from a national as well as a local perspective, opening the door for more federal aid for municipal police. America hasnt done much at the federal level to address violence since President Bill Clinton won congressional approval of the 1994 Violent Crime Control and Law enforcement Act. the bill was passed with support from law-and-order Republicans before Clinton was crippled by the monica Lewinsky scandal. the legislation provided $30 billion to ght crime, including funding to help cities hire 100,000 police ofcers. It also banned the sale and possession of 19 kinds of assault weapons. Clinton worked hard to garner Republican votes to ban the guns, knowing that many of his fellow Democrats feared the wrath of the National Rie Association. Such an accomplishment
National response to another terror
would be more elusive for President obama. even after the Newtown, Conn., shootings that left 20 rst graders dead, obama couldnt pool the bipartisan support needed to pass a modest bill subjecting more gun purchasers to background checks. Nutter says more cooperation on crime might be achieved through a national commission similar to the panels created to respond to President John F. Kennedys assassination, the civil rights riots, and the 9/11 attacks. the u.S. Conference of mayors, which Nutter heads, has also proposed a crime commission. Nutter noted that since the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks killed nearly 3,000 people, more than 100,000 have been murdered in our cities. All those murders, however, have not led to the creation of a federal agency like the post-9/11 Department of homeland Security. Nutter says a national crime commission could hold public hearings and coordinate efforts among federal, state, and local ofcials. In these days of sequestered budgets, its difcult to get such proposals off the ground. But a consistent national strategy for ghting violent crime would make sense.

No secret password needed to connect with community

thIS IS probably not something I should admit so publically, but it really isnt much of a secret especially among my friends and co-workers, that I am a very low-tech guy. In fact, despite some of my best efforts, it is safe to say new technology and I really just dont get along. Whether it is the laptop, smart phone, iPad, Kindles or tiVo, the problem I have with all these life-changing gadgets is that if you dont press the right buttons or icons in the right order, the darn things just dont work the way you want them to. At one point in the mid-nineties, I had even hoped that the Internet was just a passing fad. No such luck. thanks, Al gore. Despite a number of protests and painful experiences along the way, I am thankful that my skills have slightly improved over the years. technology has certainly changed the way we communicate and I really did not have much of a choice but to get on board. I even created my own Facebook account recently. So with improved competency and prociency, I can now search for information, communicate with my bank, utilities and insurance companies, manage my calendar, shop online, pay bills, and interact with friends across the country. As great as all this is, I have encountered another new problem -- the endless need

It was Bushs perseverance that allows us to prevail

CLare Boothe Luce liked to say that a great man is one sentence. Presidents, in particular. The most common one sentence for george W. Bush (whose legacy is being reassessed as his presidential library opens) is: He kept us safe. not quite right. He did not just keep us safe. He created the entire anti-terror infrastructure that continues to keep us safe. That homage was paid, wordlessly, by Barack obama, who vilied Bushs anti-terror policies as a candidate, then continued them as president: indenite detention, rendition, warrantless wiretaps, special forces and drone warfare and, most notoriously, guantanamo, which obama so ostentatiously denounced until he found it indispensable. Quite a list. Which is why there was not one successful terror bombing on U.S. soil from 9/11 until last week. The Boston Marathon attack was an obvious failure, but there is a difference between 3,000 dead and three. and on the other side of the ledger are the innumerable plots broken up since 9/11. Moreover, Bushs achievement was not just infrastructure. It was war. The afghan campaign overthrew the Taliban, decimated al-Qaeda and expelled it from its haven. Yet that success is today derogated with the cheap and lazy catchphrase He got us into two wars intended to spread to afghanistan the opprobrium associated with Iraq. as if afghanistan was some unilateral Bush adventure foisted on the american people. as if obama himself did not call it a war of necessity; and Joe Biden, the most just war since World War II. The dilemma in afghanistan was what to do after the brilliant, nine-week victory? There was no good answer. even with the benet of seven years grinding experience under his predecessor, obama got it wrong. His afghan surge cost hundreds of american lives without having changed the countrys prospects. It turned out to be a land too primitive to democratize, too fractured to unify. The nal withdrawal will come after obamas own six years of futility. Iraq was, of course, far more problematic. Critics conveniently forget that the invasion had broad support from the public and Congress, including from those who became the highest foreign-policy gures in the obama administration Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, Chuck Hagel and Biden. and they forget the context crumbling sanctions

COMMENTARY
that would in short order have restored Saddam Hussein to full economic and regional power, well positioning him, postsanctions, to again threaten his neighbors and restart his WMD program. Was the war worth it? Inconclusive wars never yield a good answer. Was Korea worth it? It ended with a restoration of the status quo ante. now 60 years later, we face nuclear threats from the same regime that was not defeated in a war that cost 10 times as many american lives as Iraq. The Iraq War had three parts. The initial toppling of the regime was a remarkable success like afghanistan, rapid and with relatively few U.S. casualties. The occupation was a disaster, rooted in the fundamental contradiction between means and ends, between the light footprint chosen by gen. george Casey and the grand reformation attempted by Paul Bremer, who tried to change everything down to the coinage. Finally, the surge, a courageous Bush decision taken against near-universal opposition, that produced the greatest U.S. military turnaround since the Inchon landing. and inicted the single most signicant defeat for al-Qaeda (save afghanistan) a humiliating rout at the hands of Iraqi Sunnis ghting side-by-side with the american indel. as with Lincoln, it took Bush years of agonizing bloody stalemate before he nally found his general and his strategy. Yet, for all the terrible cost, Bush bequeathed to obama a strategically won war. obama had one task: Conclude a statusof-forces agreement and thus secure Iraq as a major regional ally. He failed utterly. Iraq today is more fragile, sectarian and Iranian-inuenced than it was when Bush left ofce. Like Bush, Harry Truman left ofce widely scorned, largely because of the inconclusive war he left behind. In time, however, Korea came to be seen as but one battle in a much larger Cold War that Truman was instrumental in winning. He established the institutional and policy infrastructure that made possible ultimate victory almost a half-century later. I suspect history will similarly see Bush as the man who, by trial and error but also with prescience and principle, established the structures that will take us through another long twilight struggle, and enable us to prevail.

Marathon bombing reminder of eras danger and terror

Danger. Terror. I remember an interview in a bad Detroit neighborhood. When I approached a couch in the small front room, the mother said to me, Dont sit there. They can shoot you through the window. Danger. Terror. In Leipzig, east germany, I had a young female translator. When we approached my hotel, she froze. I cannot go in, she said. Why not? I said. Thats for foreigners. If I go in there, they will arrest me. Dont be silly. We need to work. Please. She began to cry, then shriek. I cannot go in! They will hurt me! Danger. Terror. Theres a group in Israel called ZaKa, dedicated to picking up pieces of the dead. Whenever there is a bombing or a terror attack, ZaKa arrives with incredible speed to collect anything an ear, an arm, skin believing the body needs to be buried intact, that a human being is entitled to at least that dignity. Danger. Terror. Ive seen children in Haiti too afraid to sleep inside once they knew an earthquake could strike again. Been told in Mexico to hide any jewelry and get quickly into a friends car, lest you become a kidnap target. Been in train stations around the world that post warning signs for stray backpacks or packages that might contain explosives. and once, more than 30 years ago, I ran

the Boston Marathon. at the end of the race, I crossed the nish line in Copley Square, nearly four hours after the thing started or around the time that bombs went off in that spot last Monday and I never thought that something might explode and kill me. But now, if I did it again, I would. Danger. Terror. It is a fact of life in todays world. anyplace. anywhere. You can be shot, blown up, kidnapped, arrested. The world is an increasingly scary place. The question is: What to do in the face of it? I read a quote from a female spectator in Boston, who suffered minor injuries and who told Cnn, I personally will never participate in an event of this nature in a city in fear that something like this could happen again. Seeing terrible things all over the world on TV, my heart would always go out to those directly affected. But I never imagined in a million years I would be a spectator at the Boston Marathon running for my life. This is a very telling statement. She admits she has seen terror happen all over the world, yet says she could never have imagined running for her life. Why? If it happens all over the world, why couldnt it happen to her? She also says she will never participate in an event like the marathon for fear it
could happen again. Yet things like this had been happening for decades, and it didnt stop her from coming to Boston that day. and it shouldnt stop her in the future. as the details of the bombing suspects spilled out into the weekend, one thing remained abundantly clear: There is simply no way to guard against everybody. You cannot predict every deviant behavior, protect every space in every gathering, survey all faces in a crowd or gauge the contents of every bag, pocket, shoe or human body. We can attack the training bases of terror, but that wont prevent another aurora, Colo., or oklahoma City. We can X-ray every inch of people on a plane, but that wont ensure someone wont blow up a train station. The numbers are impossible. everyone is a potential terrorist; not everyone is a police ofcer. I think about my Boston Marathon nish, being so happy at Copley Square. and its tragic that maybe no one ever will feel so carefree there again. But while this latest trepidation is real and awful, it is no different than the Detroit woman who lived in fear of her window every day. We can be killed anytime, anywhere, doing anything. We live in an age of miracle and wonder; we live in an age of danger and terror. The only sure thing is that some days it will feel more like one than the other.

Reader disputes abortion trial letter A
of Sugarloaf is proof. Skuba claims there has been a lack of media scrutiny regarding Dr. Kermit gosnell.

Skuba claims that the Planned Parenthood ofce in Wilmington, Del., is a similar house of horrors. Yet the only sources I could nd to support this claim were all pro-life sites. Planned Parenthood of Delaware ofcials say they welcome the review and have made personnel changes. Skuba claims that ve John C.

Skuba denounces Dr. gosnells clinic as a tragedy. on this, we agree: prochoice supporters are appalled by the conditions of this facility too. However, we recognize that if abortion does become illegal, these hidden, uninspected facilities are where desperate woman will be turning to terminate their pregnancies.

Virgin Mary play is contrary to Bible I
faithful of our area who traveled to a new York City theater. Some 80 percent of americans are Christian (according to an aBC poll,) and most would nd it offensive to read of the glorication of this play, Testament of Mary and its actress.

The imporTanT movie 42 opened recently, reminding us of the historical signicance of how Jackie robinson and the Brooklyn Dodgers nally integrated americas national pastime. its hard to imagine now, but even after that special day in 1947, baseball retained segregated teams until 1959 when the Boston red Sox became the last team to integrate. Baseballs story is a crucial reminder that throughout our nations history, large pools of talent have been ignored or undervalued often due only to racial, religious, gender or other irrational prejudices. of the 205 players in the hall of Fame today, 18 spent at least some of their playing days in segregated baseball. Teams that integrated quickly were reward-

ed with better performances on the eld and at the turnstiles, according to our research. The story of Jackie robinson and the integration of the national pastime is a timely reminder about the cost of ignoring or undervaluing the talents of our fellow citizens. it is important to note that baseball was a late integrator among the major sports. Though largely forgotten today, George poage won two bronze medals at the 1904 olympic Games in St. Louis, mo. Boxing began to be tfully integrated in the early 20th century. By 1908, Jack Johnson (himself immortalized by James earl Jones in the 1970 lm, The Great White hope) won the heavyweight boxing championship. nCaa football began to be integrated in 1918, and Fritz pollard and Bobby marshal integrated the nFL in 1920. Jackie robinson himself was a
COMMENTARY
four-sport letterman at UCLa and was an ofcer in the U.S. army. But since major League Baseball was, and still remains, protected by federal anti-trust legislation, it was able to deny blacks the right to compete on the playing eld. By intentionally discriminating against black ball players, major League Baseball chose an inferior labor force and elded a lesser product. This approach eventually affected the bottom line for many of the teams owners. When World War ii took 13 million ablebodied men into the armed forces, baseball had an opportunity to tap into a broader talent pool. Like many businesses, the economic losses of baseball from the Great Depression in the 1930s to World War ii in the 1940s put pressure on ownership to end segregation. The exploits of blacks in the war reinforced the trend to desegregate. The obstinate owners, though, insisted on keeping the
game segregated, which led to war-time appearances by players who had failed to qualify for military service. These inconsistences intersected with the sacrices made by black troops. president Trumans ultimate decision to integrate the military made it impossible to keep segregation in baseball. The seeds were sprouting even before Jackie robinsons historic breakthrough. in the war years, the phillies foundered, especially when compared with the philadelphia athletics of Connie mack fame. according to baseball lore, baseball impresario Bill Veeck made a strong bid to buy the phils, but also made the mistake of informing the national League that he intended to integrate the team. Veecks bid was rejected, but he went on to purchase the Cleveland indians and broke the american League color barrier just a few months after Jackie robinson did in 1947 when Larry Doby pinch hit.
We are not discounting the importance of the moral imperative towards integration. however, Dodger General manager Branch rickey himself famously said that the greatest font of untapped talent was in the negro Leagues. The negroes will make us winners for years to come. and for that i will bear being called a bleeding heart and do-gooder , he once said. Consider the results we found during our research into what led to desegregation. The teams that integrated rst tended to be organizations that had long periods of poor attendance and poor performance on the eld, according to our research. Discrimination is a costly way to do business. The obvious answer was to integrate, which proved to be protable as economics predicts. The Dodgers only had one postseason appearance in the decade before integration. They integrated quickly and in turn won four of the next seven
national League pennants. Similarly in Cleveland, the indians were in the bottom half of the league in attendance for nearly a decade before signing Doby. Shortly after he joined the Tribe, the team shot up the standings and more than doubled attendance to 2.6 million in 1948 when they won the World Series. economics and free competition oftentimes push broader change in business and in society. We believe that this impulse the need to win and attract fans made a valuable contribution in this case. its an important lesson to keep in mind as we remember Jackie robinson, Larry Doby, Branch rickey and Bill Veeck, and what they accomplished in 1947.
