Fire response time questioned in W-B

Engine from across town takes 9 minutes to respond; homeowner uses garden hose to ght re.
By JERRY LYNOTT jlynott@timesleader.com
WILKES-BARRE While children crawled through the citys re safety trailer at Kirby Park eight days ago, a homeowner on Almond Lane waiting for an engine to arrive from across town used a garden hose in an attempt to douse ames. The re, started by spontaneous combustion of grass clippings in a plastic recycling container climbed up to the second oor, causing damage in-
side and out before reghters extinguished them. They got it, said Greg Freitas, vice president of the city reghters union. But the damage could have been minimized with more reghters and equipment available, a long-running sticking point with the International Association of Fireghters Local 104 which has seen the minimum stafng level reduced by more than one-third over a 10-year period. It took nearly 11 minutes from the time Luzerne
County 911 received the call until Engine 2, dispatched from Hollenback Station on North Washington Street, arrived, Freitas said. The response would have been quicker had Engine 1 based at re headquarters on Ross Street been dispatched. Thats like a three to four minute run from headquarters, Freitas said Friday. Freitas was one of 11 reghters working day

A hOMEGROWN SUCCESS
PITTSBURGH A boom in natural gas drilling in Pennsylvania is generating billions of dollars for companies and private landowners, but some experts question whether the states low effective tax on the bounty makes long-term sense. Unlike most leading oil and gas producing states, Pennsylvania doesnt link fees to how much gas comes out of the well. Instead, each well pays an impact fee no matter how much it produces. That means that even as Marcellus Shale gas production has soared, revenue to local and state government isnt keeping pace. For example, the impact fee generated about $204 million in 2011, when production was about 1 trillion cubic feet of gas. But when production doubled in 2012 to more than 2 trillion cubic feet, the impact fee revenue dropped to about $199 million. One billion cubic feet of gas equals about 180,000 barrels of oil. That gap is going to get bigger and bigger over time, said Michael Wood, a research director with the Pennsylvania Budget and Policy Center, a progressive research group based in Harrisburg. The Marcellus Shale formation, with wells in Pennsylvania, Ohio and West Virginia, is already the countrys most productive natural gas eld and is expected to produce gas for decades. Over 20 or 30 years, that means the current impact fee here might generate $10 billion or $15 billion less than a at tax on production, Wood said. The Pennsylvania fee is essentially based on the numbers of wells drilled and on the wholesale price of gas, so when prices plunged last year, the revenue took a hit. Wood estimated that

SCRANTON The intermittent showers could not dampen the spirit of the Old Farmers Ball Music Festival as six bands and two solo performers presented a mostly local, mostly original musical showcase at the Toyota Pavilion at Montage Mountain on Saturday. Due to the inclement weather, the day-long festivities, including the farmers market, food stands and vendor booths, were moved under the pavilion as the musicians took turns on the facilitys main stage. As early-afternoon performer Kyle Morgan put it, We got ourselves a really big tent so we should be good. Most of the musicians seemed excited to be playing the big stage Christopher Kearney of Coal Town Rounders put it best: Snoop Dog drove a car on this stage, Slayer played on this stage, and now we are here. Just take that in for a minute. The more than seven hours of music was started by three young performers from Marleys Mission, the festivals charity partner. Mollie Edsell, Jordan Tarter and Abby Millon each did one song on acoustic guitars, as the strains of Sweet
from Harrisburg, then took the stage for a 15-minute, foursong set, followed by Cabinets Pappy Biondo, who ushered in Pappy Time with six tunes, including Woody Guthries Do Re Mi. Coal Town Rounders, four players from various parts of Northeastern Pennsylvania, then played some hard-charging bluegrass classics such as Fox on the Run and Dark as a Dungeon. They also scored nicely with the gospel tune My Lords Going To Set Me Free, a George Jones tribute on Milwaukee, Here I Come and a revved-up version of The Bands The Shape Im In. After a layoff of about two years, Scrantons own And The Moneynotes did a one-timeonly reunion show, bringing back its signature blend of Vaudeville, country, bluegrass and pop, getting the growing crowd on its feet and dancing in front of the stage. MiZ, the band led by singersongwriter and guitarist extraordinaire Mike Mizwinski, was next up, playing originals like Wink and a great version of Elvis Costellos (The Angels Want To Wear My) Red Shoes, as Mizwinski dazzled on both acoustic and electric guitars. An additional highlight was Pennybrook Road, a tune Mizwinski wrote about
the time he shared a house with members of Cabinet in the Scranton area. Holy Ghost Tent Revival, a band based in Greenville, N.C., then kept the party going with some ne tunes accented by a two-piece horn section. The six-piece band made the most of its 45 minutes on stage, again getting the crowd on its feet and dancing. Yarn, a Brooklyn, N.Y.-based band with its own followers nicknamed the Yarmy, a la the Grateful Dead and Phish, turned in an inspired 45-minute set of mandolin-driven tunes before the festivals hosts, Cabinet, nally took the stage about 8:40 p.m. Thanks for coming out with us, mandolinist and vocalist J.P. Biondo said as the band tuned up. We thought it would be pretty tting if we started with this tune, he said as the band kicked off The Old Farmers Mill, which inspired the festivals name. The six-piece band then played the reggae-avored My Babys Gone as Dylan Skursky moved from double bass to electric and locked into a groove with drummer Jami Novak. The tune then turned into an extended jam as saxophone player Nick Driscoll joined in. Even with the rain, the Old Farmers Music Ball proved to be a worthy showcase of the areas top talent. Heres hoping it turns into an annual event.
Pa. budget woes will test Republicans

By MARC LEVY Associated Press
HARRISBURG Gov. Tom Corbett and his fellow Republicans who control the Legislature were poised to deliver yet another business tax cut, the biggest yet of Corbetts three budget proposals. Tax collections this year were supposed to produce a $230 million surplus. That would allow Corbetts plan to absorb the tax cut and rising public employee pension costs while adding some money for the public schools and social services that had borne the brunt of two years of spending cuts. But the story gets muddy from there, and a $360 million reduction in the capital stock and franchise tax may no longer be set in stone, even for a core Republican constituency of business owners and executives who will view anything less as a tax increase. Now, disappointing tax collections have opened a projected hole of more than $500 million in Corbetts proposal for a $28.4 billion budget for the scal year beginning July 1. Democrats are pressing to de-
lay two reductions in the capital stock and franchise tax rate one that took effect Jan. 1 and another set to take effect Jan. 1, 2014 to ensure that there is extra money for public schools and social services. Adding to the stress on Corbetts budget plan is the $120 million that Philadelphia is seeking from the state to avoid another wave of layoffs in its schools. Meanwhile, more spending cuts may be out of the question: Top Republicans are sensitive to the idea after two years of squeezing education, social services and health care. Corbetts budget secretary, Charles Zogby, said the governor is committed to following through with a gradual elimination, or phaseout, of the capital stock and franchise tax. But the current budget situation will test that. I think whether we can afford to continue the phaseout is something were going to have to examine, Zogby said Thursday. The elimination is scheduled to be complete Jan. 1, 2014, when the rate is supposed to drop to zero.
The capital stock and franchise was enacted in 1840, according to the Department of Revenue, and rose as high as 13 mills in 1991. Pennsylvania is one of only nine states to impose such a tax along with a corporate income tax, according to the Pennsylvania Chamber of Business and Industry. When then-Gov. Tom Ridge and the Republican-controlled Legislature set the gradual elimination of the tax into motion in 2000, it accounted for more than 5 percent, or a little over $1 billion, of the states approximately $20 billion in general tax collections. Over the next decade, more deductions were added to the tax and the tax rate has dropped steadily, although the original schedule of elimination was delayed several times during tight budgets. In 2011, when Corbett took ofce, the tax provided $820 million, or about 3 percent of the states nearly $26.5 billion. Under Corbetts projected budget, the tax would contribute $243 million, or less than 1 percent of more than $29 billion in collections.

IN BRIEF
State police are investigating the reported theft of cable line Monday from a residence in the area of Poplar Street and state Route 29 by someone posing as a Verizon worker. The resident returned home to nd her satellite TV was not working. She contacted the provider, who dispatched someone to her residence. She was told her cable had been cut and removed. A neighbor told state police that around noon he saw a white pickup truck with a bucket lift. The neighbor said he believed the truck had Verizon stickers on the doors. The driver of the truck put up orange cones, blocking an intersection while he raised the bucket and removed about 20 to 30 feet of cable valued at $20, state police said. Verizon in Wilkes-Barre was contacted and said there were no trucks in the area that day. Its trucks are equipped with GPS. State police advised residents who see white bucket trucks working on or near their homes to question the operator or call the company to verify that they are legitimate. Anyone with information about the theft is asked to contact Trooper Thomas Kelly at 570-697-2000.

KINGSTON TWP. The rst time Damon Szatkowski boarded this school bus, the driver introduced himself. Hi, Damon. Im Tony and Tony spelled backwards is Y-NOT, said Tony Monte, the 80-year-old Dallas School District bus driver. On Saturday Grandpa Ynot volunteered to drive Damon an 18-yearold head trauma accident victim who has epitomized the attitude of why not during his 17-month recovery to the Dallas High School Junior-Senior
Prom. Damon and his date, Kendra Vanesko, and four other couples rode the yellow bus to the Genetti Hotel and Conference Center in Wilkes-Barre for the big event. Prior to the prom, a couple hundred people arrived at the Szatkowski home on Greystone Road to see off the young man. It was yet another remarkable turnout by the community of Damon that has supported him and his family since the Dec. 3, 2011 car crash that nearly took his life. A year and a half ago, we didnt know if there would be a senior year for Damon, let alone a senior prom, said his mother, Karen. But this community all of these beautiful people of all ages have been here for Damon and us the entire time. And it was Monte Grandpa Ynot
who went to the Dallas School District administration and asked for permission to drive Damon to the prom in the school bus. They were 100 percent for it, said Monte. But I wasnt taking no for an answer. Kim Wood and her daughter, Lauren, decorated the bus. Purple the color of hope was everywhere. Damon, decked out in a black tuxedo with, of course, a purple vest and tie, and Kendra in her purple dress, got on board for the drive to downtown Wilkes-Barre. There are no words to explain it, Monte said, ghting back tears. I have such an attachment to this boy. And to think what he has been through and his family. I wish I could do more.

WEST PITTSTON An overnight rainfall made pulling weeds a little easier for the 10 AmeriCorps volunteers who gathered at Morris Park on Saturday morning. The group of college-aged men and women, who came from points all across the country, has been in the Wyoming Valley area since March helping communities affected by the 2011 ooding. Were stationed at the Sunshine Market staging center and working with FEMA to focus on long-term recovery, said Abigail Miskowiec, 23, of West Virginia. This weekend they focused on beautifying a park. Miskowiec and her fellow community relations team members will graduate in June from an intensive 10-month AmeriCorps service program. Based in Vinton, Iowa, AmeriCorps NCCC (National Civilian Community Corps) is a teambased residential program for young adults who carry out projects in public safety, the environment, youth development, and disaster relief and preparedness. We travel all over, said Miskowiec. Before arriving in Luzerne County, the team was in New Jersey helping Hurricane Sandy victims. Were doing social media (for the communities) in the event of an emergency, so people can get their information quickly, she said. The group will participate in a disaster preparedness forum at 6 p.m. Thursday at the WilkesBarre Area Career & Technical Center, Plains Township. The event will include speakers from the American Red Cross and members of Valley United, a group led by Plains Township Emergency Management Agency coordinator Charles Krommes. Were trying to get community leaders to attend so they can bring back information to their communities on how to be prepared in the event of an emergency, said 23-year-old Donald Hawkins II, of Virginia, a team leader for AmeriCorps. We want to get the word out to communities on how to be prepared before, during and after an emergency, he said, so when AmeriCorps and FEMA is gone, they can sustain themselves.

ISLAMABAD Despite attacks that killed 29 people, Pakistanis turned out in huge numbers Saturday to vote in an election that marked a historic democratic transfer of power in a country plagued by military coups. The Pakistan Muslim League-N party, led by twotime Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, has long been considered the front-runner in the race. The party appeared to be moving toward a signicant victory Saturday based
on partial vote counts announced by Pakistan state TV. Sharif expressed a desire to work with all parties to solve the countrys problems in what appeared to be a victory speech given to his supporters in the eastern city of Lahore as his lead in the election became apparent. I appeal to all to come sit with me at the table so that this nation can get rid of this curse of power cuts, ination and unemployment, Sharif said. The heavy voter turnout signaled a yearning for change after years of hardship under the outgoing government. It also offered a sharp rebuke to Taliban militants and oth-

ers who have tried to derail the election with attacks that have killed more than 150 people in recent weeks.
Our country is in big trouble, said Mohammad Ali, a shopkeeper who voted in the eastern city of Lahore. Our
people are jobless. Our business is badly affected. We are dying every day. The vote marked the rst time a civilian government has completed its full veyear term and transferred power in democratic elections in a country that has experienced three coups and constant political instability since it was established in 1947. The election is being watched closely by the United States, which relies on the nuclear-armed country of 180 million people for help ghting Islamic militants and negotiating an end to the war in neighboring Afghanistan. Many of the attacks in the run-up to the vote targeted secular parties.
Report contradicts IRS boss
enior Internal Revenue Service ofcials knew agents were targeting tea party groups as early as 2011, according to a draft of an inspector generals report obtained by The Associated Press that seemingly contradicts public statements by the IRS commissioner. The IRS apologized Friday for what it acknowledged was inappropriate targeting of conservative political groups during the 2012 election to see if they were violating their tax-exempt status. The agency blamed low-level employees, saying no high-level ofcials were aware. But on June 29, 2011, Lois G. Lerner, who heads the IRS division that oversees tax-exempt organizations, learned at a meeting that groups with Tea Party, Patriot or 9/12 Project in their names were being agged for additional and often burdensome scrutiny, the report says.

Bombs kill 43, wound 140 in Turkey

REYHANLI, Turkey In one of the deadliest attacks in Turkey in recent years, two car bombs exploded near the border with Syria on Saturday, killing 43 and wounding 140 others. Turkish ofcials blamed the attack on a group linked to Syria, and a deputy prime minister called the neighboring countrys intelligence service and military the usual suspects. The rst of the bombs appeared to target the municipal ofces in Reyhanli. A second, larger bomb went off near a trafc circle in a neighborhood that has in the past year become home to thousands of Syrians eeing the war. The second blast tore off one side of a ve-story building and destroyed a number of cars, as well as starting res. Some Turkish residents of Reyhanli vented their anger toward Syrians after the blasts. Turks and Syrians both were reportedly among the dead. Damn all of you! one Turkish man shouted at a Syrian man near the site of the second blast, before becoming slightly calmer and urging him to get off the street before someone attacked him. Down the street from the site of the rst explosion, members of the media ofce for a Syrian rebel group pre-emptively drew and locked their shutters as Turkish men across the street chased a Syrian man and one person could be observed throwing rocks at cars with Syrian license plates. No group claimed responsibility for the blasts, though suspicion immediately fell upon the Syrian government and some Turkish ofcials blamed the Syrian government directly. Nor has there been a claim of responsibility for a car bombing in February at the Syrian-Turkish border crossing a few miles from Reyhanli. That explosion killed 12 people. About 200,000 Syrians live in refugee camps run by the Turkish government in southern Turkey, and tens of thousands more have come to the area. Thats created tensions particularly in Hatay Province, where Reyhanli is located. Until 1939, Hatay was a part of Syria,
Control towers win reprieve

The Federal Aviation Administration is keeping open for now the 149 control towers at small airports that were slated to close as the result of governmentwide automatic spending cuts imposed by Congress. The towers, which are operated by contractors for the FAA at low-trafc airports, had been scheduled to close June 15. They will now remain open at least through Sept. 30, the end of the federal budget year, the Transportation Department said Friday. A bill hastily passed by Congress last month to end air trafc controller furloughs also makes enough money available to keep the towers open, the statement said.
and contains a signicant population of Alawites, adherents of the same sect of Islam to which Syrias ruling family belongs. Perhaps nowhere in Turkey is there greater opposition to the Turkish governments support of the Syrian rebellion than in Hatay, and particularly so in Antakya, the provincial capital, west of Reyhanli. Reyhanli, however, does not have a signicant Alawite population, and the anger directed at Syrians Saturday was indicative of a more general feeling among Turks here that the refugees have brought trouble with them. Some landlords refuse to rent apartments to Syrians, and last year the Turkish government moved to restrict Syrians to the refugee camps, a decision that quickly fell by the wayside as difcult to enforce.

Births drop for less-educated

Birthrates were dramatically reduced during the recession among women who did not nish high school, a development that far outpaced the drop among women with higher levels of education, according to a new study by the Pew Research Center. Between 2008 and 2011, birthrates fell 13 percent among women who hadnt nished high school nearly twice as much as for women who had earned bachelors degrees or more, Pew found. The overall drop continued a trend among U.S. women for the past ve decades.
LOS ANGELES
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. Astronauts making a rare, hastily planned spacewalk replaced a pump outside the International Space Station on Saturday in hopes of plugging a serious ammonia leak. The prospects of success grew as the minutes passed and no frozen ecks of ammonia appeared. Mission Control said it appeared as though the leak might have been plugged, although additional monitoring over the coming days, if not weeks, will be needed before declaring a victory. No evidence of any ammonia leakage whatsoever. We have an airtight system at the moment, Mission Control reported. Christopher Cassidy and Thomas Marshburn installed the new pump after removing the old one suspected of spewing akes of frozen ammonia coolant two days earlier. They uncovered no smoking guns responsible for the leak and consequently kept a sharp lookout for any icy ecks that might appear from the massive frame that holds the solar panels on the left side. Let us know if you see anything, Mis-

WASHINGTON Steady drips of information about a horric night in Libya are fueling Republican arguments and ads designed to re up the conservative base and undercut the Democrats early favorite for president in 2016: former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. Strategists in both parties disagree on the issues power to inuence elections next year and beyond. But after eight months of trying, Democrats are still struggling to move past the terrorist attack on the U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi last Sept. 11 that killed Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans. Democrats insist that an independent inquiry, the dismissal of several State Department ofcials and nine congressional
hearings leave little new to say on the matter. But Friday turned up the sort of nuggets that feed conservative activists belief that a major scandal might be at hand. Newly revealed communications show that senior State Department ofcials pressed for changes in the talking points that U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice used a few days after the Benghazi attacks. These senior ofcials expressed concerns that Congress might criticize the Obama administration for ignoring warnings of a growing threat in Libya. Rice and others eventually acknowledged that the Benghazi assault was a premeditated terrorist attack. Republicans say her Sept. 16 televised remarks were only the start of administration efforts to mislead Americans about what happened.

During trip to help villagers, they watch from hotel as a peaceful protest turns ugly.

odor, according to mechanical engineering student Dustin Hough, 21, of Chambersburg. Their return to Wilkes-Barre capped a journey that began in September, when they were tasked with developing, designing and building an alternate energy source to power devices that will allow Internet-accessible devices to work in a town without electricity. They also had to gure out the logistics of getting the materials to rural Bangladesh. Todd Oravic, 22, an English major from Ashley, said the trip will help the students there to receive better educations, but it also gave the Wilkes students a lesson. It was extremely educational, Oravic said. While Wood, Hough, Oravic, Danko and Joshua Haag, a 22-year-old business major from Bethlehem, made the trip, two Wilkes electrical engineering students Christa Tutella, 22, of Wilkes-Barre, and Suliman Alhojairir, 29, of Saudi Arabia -- helped with the project but could not make the trek. The reaction the students received in the foreign country was different than they expected. The anger and unrest there is not against Americans or foreigners, the students said. This is purely two political parties in Bangladesh that hate each other, said Danko. They didnt have anything against us. The villagers, on the other hand, were extremely appreciative of what the Wilkes students did for them. Ridiculously thoughtful and receptive, is how Wood described their hosts. With the journey in their own history books, the students that went said they would go back in a heartbeat. It was the trip of a lifetime, said Danko.
A group of Wilkes University students that traveled to Bangladesh this month to help a rural school got an education of their own as they survived riots and a monsoon. The students were set to spend spring break in the impoverished village of Gush Kande, but unrest and safety concerns delayed the trip. Tensions in the nation settled down in April and most of the group was nally able to complete its mission last week. But unrest in the Asian nation erupted once more while they were there. The students received an email from the American Embassy shortly after they landed in the nations capital of Dhaka on May 2 alerting them of a planned peaceful protest scheduled for May 5 near their hotel. It was supposed to be peaceful, said Ryan Wood, 22, a communications student from Kingston who made the journey and documented the trip with both digital photos and video. It turned into a riot. The students watched the clashes from the upper oors of the Hotel Pacica, at one point even heading up to the roof to observe the uproar. They said they never sensed they were in danger, but the explosions and gunre still made them uneasy. When the students rst arrived in Dhaka, they checked into their hotel and headed out on a three-hour van and boat trek to the remote village. Not long into their work to install a homemade solar paneltopped shed that will power a generator powerful enough to charge each of the ve iPads that the university is donating,

the skies opened and a monsoon swept in. The rain and wind lasted two hours. It was like something out of
a movie, said mechanical engineering student Eric Danko, 22, of Dallas. They then got back to com-
pleting the generator that will benet the 500 students and teachers at the Subilarchar Anwar Memorial School.
The villagers were poor and barely had food, but the university students said they fed them, helped them when they could and offered both thanks and tears when the Wilkes students left to head back to Dhaka. The riots started the next afternoon and a second round were scheduled to begin the next day, but the group, which included Perwez Kalim, a professor of mechanical engineering at Wilkes, ew out before they began. They returned to JFK Airport in New York on Wednesday. Some ate fast-food, others took in the grass and trees and odors of America that are much different from what they were smelling in Dhaka, which included garbage, rotten vegetables, burning leaves, sulfur from the tap water and body

SAVAR, Bangladesh A seamstress who survived 17 days before being rescued from a collapsed garment factory building was panicked, dehydrated and suffering from insomnia as she recovered in a Bangladesh hospital Saturday, but was in generally good condition, according to her doctors. The rescue Friday of 19-yearold Reshma Begum brought a boost to the workers who had spent more than two weeks pulling decaying bodies from the rubble. By Saturday, they had resumed their grim task and the death toll surpassed 1,100 in the worlds worst garment industry
Maj. Gen. Chowdhury Hasan Suhrawardy, the head of the local military units in charge of rescue operations. Lt. Col. Azizur Rahman, a doctor at the military hospital where Begum is being treated, said she was exhausted and badly stressed when she was brought in an ambulance Friday afternoon. She suffered scratches, but no major injuries, he said. Her kidneys were functioning at less than 45 percent and she suffered insomnia. She is panicked, sometimes she holds nurses hands tight, he said. Doctors were giving her semisolid food and saline for her dehydration. They advised complete rest, and barred reporters from speaking with her for fear

their questions would worsen her fragile psychological state. We dont want those memories to haunt her now, so we are not allowing anybody to ask her anything, Rahman said, adding
that a team of psychiatrists will be examining her. Nevertheless, Suhrawardy said Begum told him she was ne. Begum had spent 17 days in a
room-like area under the rubble high enough for her to stand, surviving on dried food, bottled water and rain water, Suhrawardy said. She got fresh air from some of the 27 air holes that rescuers had dug in the rubble. She even found cartons of dresses inside and was able to change her clothes, he said. Her return is amazing, miraculous, he said. Begums family said they like many other families of workers still missing had been losing hope of nding her alive. Her brother Zayed Islam said her relatives had initially camped out at the collapse site and then moved to the hospital in the rst days after the disaster, hoping to nd her among the injured. Eventually, they moved to the school ground that had been turned into a makeshift morgue, so they could try to nd her among the dead bod-
ies. Then, Friday, they were told to come back to the hospital she was alive. I just could not believe it when I saw her in the hospital, her mother, Zobeda Begum, said through tears. My daughter has come back to me. God, you are merciful and I dont have anything else to ask for from you. Islam said he fainted when he saw her. When I regained my senses, Reshma told me, Brother, Im ne. Dont worry about me, he said. Begum moved to Dhaka 2 1/2 years ago to get a job in the garment industry and help her poor family, Islam said. She married a year ago, but her husband left her three months ago, he said. Ofcials said Saturday that 1,115 bodies had been recovered from the ruins of the fallen building, which housed ve garment factories employing thousands of workers.

Rich and Karen Szatkowski have been at Damons side since the car wreck in which he lost control of the vehicle while driving on Bunker Hill Road in Luzerne, went into a spin and hit a wall. Damon was wearing a seat belt; he wasnt thrown from the car. But he sustained serious head injuries. Uncertainty has been with them every day through surgeries, therapy and recovery. His left side continues to be affected. But his father said Damon set a personal record Friday at the John Heinz Institute, where he goes for therapy every day. Damon walked 50 yards in 15 minutes with a walker and assistance but he continues to improve. Every night we cross off the days left to the prom and graduation, said Rich Szatkowski. This one is here and hes going to the prom and he will have fun. Now we will keep working toward graduation and walking across the stage for his diploma.

Karen Szatkowski spends a few quiet moments with her son Damon before his prom on Saturday night. This is like a dream come true for us, she said.
Prom day was a different day for Damon one in which he spent all of his time with his friends. Damons normal routine is therapy, then school, then home for rest and more therapy. It makes the day a little bit harder, Slivinski said, but its once a year and for a good cause. Terry Marcavage and Walter Klepaski sorted and stacked the food carriers collections on tables inside the Salvation Armys gym. Marcavage, of the Pennsylvania Association of Staff Nurses and Allied Professionals at Wilkes-Barre General Hospital, has helped before. Other PASNAP members were coming by to
His date, Kendra, said she was thrilled to be Damons choice for the prom. Weve always been close, she said. This means a lot to him and me and all of us. And on the day before Mothers Day, Karen Szatkowski said lend a hand, she said. Its one of the events we really like to do for the community, Marcavage said. A number of groups make it possible, added Klepaski, the AFL-CIO community services liaison for the United Way of Wyoming Valley. Its good community cooperation, he said. The letters carriers and the Postal Service, the Greater WilkesBarre Labor Council, the Commission on Economic Opportu-

Today, he hasnt stopped smiling. nity and the United Way work together on the nations largest one-day food drive, he said. Last year, 70 million pounds of food were collected nationwide, Klepaski said. The food collected locally is much needed and makes up between 25 and 35 percent of the annual distributions of the food banks and pantries, Klepaski said. Theyre very dependent upon the food drive, he said. The Salvation Armys pan-

region. They collected 105,000 pounds of food last year. This years total wont be known for a while, Nichols said. The carriers work their 8-hour shifts and they donate any time after that to the drive, said Matthew Slivinski, vice president of the branch.
try is open from 9 a.m. to noon Tuesday through Thursday and provides for about 40 families a week, said Lt. Ted Tressler, commanding ofcer of the Salvation Armys Wilkes-Barre Corps. Theres denitely not a decrease in need, Tressler said. Families get a three-day supply of food with a mixture of
items to make meals, such as pasta, sauce and ground beef kept in the pantrys refrigerator. The shelves of the pantry, located next to the gym, had ample room for the food collected during the drive. Itll get used, Tressler said. Its going to help.

None of my teachers at Pitt knew my name, Lisman said, because some classes packed in 200 to 300 students. The startup medical college is one of nine in the state and the rst school to be accredited in more than 30 years. Its doctorate degree program boasts a 6-to-1 student/teacher ratio. Commencement was a shining moment for the colleges president, Dr. Steven Scheinman, who called out many college supporters in the audience, asking them to stand and be recognized. He described fulllment of a vision held by the founders to raise up medical professionals of the highest caliber who will bring great improvement to their communities, especially to health care in the colleges nearby communities. By graduating its rst class, the college has left its provisional accreditation behind. The realization of that vision should be a source of great pride to all of you in this arena, Scheinman said. Giving the commencement address, George Thibault, a four-decade Harvard Medical School educator, held up Saturdays edition of The Times Tribune. There arent many places in the country that a graduating class makes the front page of the paper, Thibault said, pointing to the Scranton newspapers preview. He compared the medical school to a small-town doctor from the 1930s, a hero to its community and a reason to be proud. Scheinman said the graduating students offered proof that the college founders efforts were worthwhile. We have validation that the college, the curriculum, the building, the faculty and the staff that this community built is a success, because it has enabled the success of these students, Scheinman said.

Amanda Berry, right, hugs her sister Beth Serrano after being reunited in a Cleveland hospital.
Therapists say with extensive treatment and support, healing is likely for the women.
By JESSE WASHINGTON AP National Writer
Recovery next for Cleveland trio

logical and social skills, says Duane Bowers, who counsels traumatized families through the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. Theyre 10 years behind in these skills. Those need to be caught up before they can work on reintegrating into society, he says. That society can be terrifying. As freed captive Georgina DeJesus arrived home from the hospital, watched by a media horde, she hid herself beneath a hooded sweatshirt. The freed Amanda Berry slipped into her home without being seen. They werent hiding from the press, from the cameras, Bowers says. They were hiding from the freedom, from the expansiveness. In the house owned by Ariel Castro, who is charged with kidnapping and raping the women, claustrophobic control ruled. Police say that Castro kept them chained in a basement and locked in upstairs rooms, that he fathered a child with one of them and that he starved and beat one captive into multiple miscarriages. In all those years, they only set foot outside of the house twice and then only as far as the garage. Something as simple as walking into a Target is going to be a major problem for them, Bowers says. Jessica Donohue-Dioh, who works with survivors of human trafcking as a social work instructor at Xavier University in Cincinnati, says the freedom to make decisions can be one of the hardest parts of recovery.

Year after year, the clock ticked by and the calendar marched forward, carrying the three women further from the real world and pulling them deeper into an isolated nightmare. Now, for the women freed from captivity inside a Cleveland house, the ordeal is not over. Next comes recovery from sexual abuse and their sudden, jarring re-entry into a world much different from the one they were snatched from a decade ago. Therapists say that with extensive treatment and support, healing is likely for the women, who were 14, 16 and 21 when they were abducted. But it is often a long and difcult process. Its sort of like coming out of a coma, says Dr. Barbara Greenberg, a psychologist who specializes in treating abused teenagers. Its a very isolating and bewildering experience. In the world the women left behind, a gallon of gas cost about $1.80. Barack Obama was a state senator. Phones were barely taking pictures. Things did not go viral. There was no YouTube, no Facebook, no iPhone. Emerging into the future is difcult enough. The two younger Cleveland women are doing it without the benet of crucial formative years. By taking away their adolescence, they werent able to develop emotional and psycho-
How should I respond? What do they really want from me? Donohue-Dioh says, describing a typical reaction. They may feel they may not have a choice in giving the right answer. That has been a challenge for Jaycee Dugard, who is now an advocate for trauma victims after surviving 18 years in captivity learning how to speak up, how to say what I want instead of nding out what everybody else wants, Dugard told ABC News. Like Berry, Dugard was impregnated by her captor and is now raising the two children. She still feels anger about her ordeal. But then on the other hand, I have two beautiful daughters that I can never be sorry about, Dugard says. Another step toward normalcy for the three women will be accepting something that seems obvious to the rest of the world: They have no reason to feel guilty. First of all, Id make sure these young women know that nothing that happened to them is their fault, Elizabeth Smart, who was kidnapped at age 14 and held in sexual captivity for nine months, told People magazine. Donohue-Dioh says that even for people victimized by monstrous criminals, guilt is a common reaction. The Cleveland women told police they were snatched after accepting rides from Castro. They need to recognize that what happened as a result of that choice is not the rightful or due punishment. Thats really difcult sometimes, Donohue-Dioh says.

the 2011 revenue was the equivalent of about a 4.1 percent effective tax rate, which at rst glance appears to be far lower than Texas, at 7.5 percent, or Oklahoma, at 7 percent. As time goes on, a policy center analysis and a review by The Associated Press came up with the same conclusion: Pennsyl-
vanias effective tax rate on gas production could drop to as low as 1.3 percent over the next few years. The AP found that at the current pace production could grow to about 4 trillion cubic feet in 2015. Thats the equivalent of $16 billion in company revenue if wholesale prices are at $4, which is the current range. At West Virginias 5 percent tax rate, that would generate about $800 million.

mates that the Pennsylvania impact fee will generate $237 million to $261 million in 2015, depending on the number of wells drilled and prices. Those arent fair comparisons, said Kathryn Klaber, the president of the Marcellus Shale Coalition, an industry group. She noted that many other states give drillers a tax exemption for the rst few years of production to allow companies to recoup costs. In Oklahoma, for example, a well thats drilled horizontally, like many Marcellus Shale wells, gets up to a fouryear tax exemption, because the capital costs are far greater than a traditional well. Such details are hugely important in an industry that has upfront capital outlay, Klaber said. The Pennsylvania fee puts money in the pockets of state and local governments even before gas is being produced. So youve got a timing difference. Klaber also said that increasing tax rates on drilling would slow investments, thus leading to lower production. Theres been a big debate over that very issue in Alaska, where last month the Legislature passed a multibillion-dollar oil tax cut in the hopes it will lead to more production. Klaber said the current impact fee has probably hit as close as were going to get to some middle ground on such issues.

While the Democratic candidates dont have the primary pressure to land a nomination, theres still a potential advantage to securing the most votes in their party on May 21: general election ballot position. The ve chosen Republican nominees will appear rst on the November ballot because the governor is a Republican. The Democratic contenders will be listed next based on their primary vote count, followed by any Independent and third-party candidates who get on the ballot after the primaries. Some believe the rst few names on the ballot in crowded races are more noticed by voters, but others say thats a baseless myth. Voters can choose ve candidates from any political party in the general. Independent and third-party candidates must collect at least 633 signatures from voters to get on the November ballot. Incumbent Councilman Rick Williams, an Independent, has been circulating a petition to run. The ve council members elected in November will serve with six council members in seats that dont expire until the end of 2015: Edward Brominski, Jim Bobeck, Rick Morelli, Tim McGinley, Stephen J. Urban and Stephen A. Urban. If Stephen A. Urban wins the county controller seat, council chooses someone to serve the rest of his council term, according to the home rule charter. Council members receive $8,000 annually. Council approves the budget and larger contracts, appoints members to outside county boards and revises the countys ethics, personnel and administrative

codes. The council also conrms the eight division heads and hires and evaluates the appointed manager. Robert Lawton has been serving as county manager for 14 months. Seven of 11 council votes a supermajority would be required to terminate a county manager.
The six candidates in the contested Republican race offer a mix of views on the ofce. DeFabo said he works with the public as a Realtor and has budgeting and management experience as the prior owner of several coffee shops and a fast food restaurant. He said his campaign motto is serving the
public, rst and foremost. In every decision that we make, we have to consider the impact on the general public. I think were elected to help the public any way we can, DeFabo said. Dobash said preventing future tax increases is her primary goal, saying shes talked to many voters on the campaign
trail who have expressed concerns about tax hikes. Tax increases hurt property owners, and homeowners have been saying even the smallest increases have been a burden, Dobash said, emphasizing she understands county operations because she attends most county government meetings and does research on her own.
Haas, a history teacher who has served on county council since 2012, said he always votes his conscience and wants to continue building on the initial progress of home rule. He said he wants to ensure council continues honoring the home rule mandate to cast a vision and monitor the appointed manager without interfering in daily operations. I really want to see the foundation of the home rule government laid securely. Theres a lot more work to be done, including paying almost half a billion in debt and fullling other charter mandates, Haas said. Kelleher, who has served on council since 2012, said the new home-rule government has made progress increasing public discussion on the budget and the selection of candidates for authority and board seats, and he wants one more term because he believes he offers an experienced and rationale viewpoint. I think you need council members who are calm, civil and use common sense to do whats best for the taxpayers. Thats why Im running. I believe thats part of my job to be a public servant, Kelleher said. Milanes said he wants to help ensure opportunities are available to county residents and said hes developing a tax amnesty plan that could allow struggling, tax-delinquent property owners to repay their debt with interest and penalties forgiven something he believes will increase county revenue. We need to work to keep people in their homes and address their needs. Abandoned houses and empty homes invite crime, he said. Rossi said she has 25 years of experience as a small business owner and has publicly pointed out questionable spending in her township through her work as an auditor. Im not one of those people who will sit in a corner and keep my mouth shut. One of my biggest goals is to get people on council who will work for the taxpayers and save the face of this new government, Rossi said.

A fortuitous mix: Graham & WVIA

Producer and host was fresh out of college when he helped get WVIA-FM on its feet.
WVIA
JENKINS TWP. It was pure luck that George Graham returned home to Carbondale after graduating from Duke University lucky for him and lucky for WVIA. Graham graduated in 1972 with a degree in electrical engineering and four years of on-air broadcast experience at the university in North Carolina. It just so happened that same year the public broadcasting organization for Northeastern Pennsylvania was planning to start a radio station. It was a bit of a coincidence. I was fully expecting to nd a job in North Carolina because I developed a lot of friends there, said Graham. But I wanted to come and see the facilities at WVIA. So, he toured the WVIA television station and was introduced to the chief engineer. He said, You know, were looking for somebody. Were going to put a radio station on the air, recalled Graham. I said: Oh, really? Well I have just done that. While he was at Duke, Graham said, there were several students who already had major-market broadcasting experience and also a good deal of ambition. So while I was there, he said, we took what was essentially a campus-restricted AM radio station and put it on the air as a commercial FM station by literally buying a commercial station in town.
George Graham, a WViA-fM veteran, says, i put a great deal of thought into the order of the music and how it ows.
was hired to wire and set up the radio station. And when the stations went digital a few years ago, Graham supervised that changeover for the radio station as well. Many things have changed at the station in four decades, most of them technology-associated. No more cutting reel-to-reel tape with a razor blade and splicing it together, said senior producer and classical music host Erika Funke. Digital editing is the way to go. Funke, a WVIA veteran employee of 34 years, said turntables are also considered historical equipment, even though theyre occasionally still used at the station, especially for playing pieces on request nights that havent yet been recorded into the stations computer system. One thing that hasnt changed is that unlike show hosts at many commercial radio stations WVIA hosts choose all of their own music. At most stations today in commercial radio and even some classical radio, a music director picks all the music and creates a playlist. And a lot of times theyre aided by computers, and a computer program using parameters will generate a playlist for that day and the host or DJ gets handed that playlist, explained Chris Norton, WVIAs vice president of radio. Well, we dont do it that way, he said. Each host picks his or her own music. Its all hand-picked, handmade programming. And so the personalities of the hosts come out not only in presentation, but in the actual music choices. The staff obviously appreciates the opportunity to express themselves in their programming. When a staff is 20, 31, 34 and 40-plus years here, that tells you something, said Funke. Part of this longevity is because not only are we working with material and people and music and so forth that we love, but our creative abilities are respected and honored, she said. People trust our creative instincts. And thats a lovely thing, to work in a place where your sense of what you do is trusted so you can be creative. Mazzarella said its hard for her to believe she will have been at the station 20 years in August. For her, its her dream job. I had jobs, but I didnt have a career. This is what I studied, this is what Ive always wanted to do since I was in the seventh grade, said Mazzarella. Any time I was on I-81 and passed WVIA, I always had that hope that Id work here some day. Prior to WVIA, she worked as an admissions counselor, a volunteer director for the American Red Cross and a bank employee who worked on repos-
decades of changes
sessing cars and foreclosing on houses. All of these things, even though they werent career-oriented, they certainly did lend a personality and a knowledge that helped me in this career, she said. I found that having all this experience and meeting all these different types of people helped me with my on-air presentation, making it much more human. And thats the whole gist of what I do, try to relate to people who maybe dont know a whole lot about classical music, we just like the sound of it. Listeners hear a variety, with the station playing a mix of classical, jazz, adult contemporary and news shows each weekday. Some specialty shows are broadcast on weekends. They know the difference between this kind of radio and commercial radio, which dominates the airwaves, Norton said. Four times a year, we have direct audience feedback through membership drives, he said. If they dont like what were doing in terms of classical music or news or anything else, they dont have to support the station nancially. You can listen to radio for free, but they voluntarily make contributions that keep the radio station going. And keeping both the radio and TV stations operating hasnt been any easy task after a longstanding state grant about $900,000, or about 18 percent of the stations revenue disappeared more than three years ago and has not been reinstated. So we have been kind of struggling on reduced revenues since then, but our audience, our membership have really stepped up and helped keep this radio station going for four decades now, Norton said. Sitting in the broadcast studio with some of her colleagues, Funke pointed to some of the proof on the walls. Holding her hands about a foot apart to show the height of a stack of LPs the station had its rst year, Funke pointed out the stations library has grown to shelves upon shelves of records and CDs. Because people took that risk and invested, thats how we had more money to invest and could build that library, Funke said. The staff has had to adjust too, with employees of both radio and TV stations working together on projects, Mazzarella notes. The nice part about WVIA, at least in recent years, simply because of desire but more importantly necessity, lots of walls have come down so that everything kind of dovetails into each department, Mazzarella said. Radio will work very closely with education, which will work very closely with television, so were all hooked into that tapestry, were all hooked into that weave so were all doing our own respective thing in promoting a specic thing, but were all in it together. Thats the bottom line.

decades of experience
So, with a college degree and four years college radio experience under his belt, Graham helped get WVIA-FM on its feet. Today, 40 years later, he is senior producer and host of Mixed Bag, All That Jazz and Homegrown Music on WVIA Radio, and the Homegrown Music Con-
certs on WVIA-TV. George is the type of a person who is one of these low-key individuals, very unassuming, and he cranks out extraordinary work, and thats the way he likes it, said colleague and morning on-air host Lisa Mazzarella. Hes the night hawk, and he knows every single release on every single piece of vinyl in this library. Its almost like an encyclopedic knowledge, said Mazzarella. Aside from that, hes a wonderful colleague. Chris Norton, WVIAs vice president of radio, said its very unusual and a real blessing for us to have a fully qualied broadcast engineer who is also a remarkable on-air talent and music producer. Its an amazing package we get in George. Norton noted that Graham has engineered CDs that have been commercially released. And some of the area bands that hes produced, just as a way to give them a chance and a platform, have turned out to be national recording acts. His own website lists all the artists. The hundreds and hundreds of acts who have performed on his Homegrown Music series is another thing to celebrate, Norton said.
A cultural pioneer
Graham said its a pleasure to see new local artists and give them a venue. I probably take a degree of pride in the production of the Homegrown Music series and the fact that weve created such a big body of work; its become a real archive of the regional music scene, Graham said. Area reggae artist George Wesley said he rst was a guest on Homegrown Music in the mid1970s with a band called Dead Branch Band, a Grateful Dead tribute band before there were any tribute bands. For me, it was my rst opportunity to be taken seriously and to get my music on the air, Wesley said. And its been that way for countless other musicians. Wesley said Grahams ability to nd and showcase talented singer/ songwriters turned me on to talent I never knew existed in the area. Hes very much a cultural pioneer. Graham believes the work he and others do at WVIA-FM radio also helps preserve the potential of the medium in the current environment in which commercial radio nds itself having to make sacrices cut back and reduce stafng and pile up simulcast sta-
Thought put into music
tions and reduce widths of play lists. Its kind of sad, he said. He doesnt hold commercial broadcasters to blame, but rather market forces that are driving a medium that faces a great deal of competition. Anyone with an MP3 player or an iPhone or anything like that can get all kinds of programs. Hes proud of the way he puts together a show, given all the automation in todays radio market. Each block of music is organized into a set, he said. Its themebased or genre-based and I put a great deal of thought into the order of the music and how it ows. Graham believes the business has changed a great deal for commercial radio, but surprisingly little for public radio. On commercial radio, theyre competing on trying to get people to listen so they can sell advertising. Theyre having contests and basically trying to bribe people to listen. Commercial radio is different degrees of more hits and more of this and more of that, but its basically the same thing a relatively limited swath of the music world, Graham said. We have to do programming thats different and good enough for people actually to want to support.
Making it personal
Listen up: Station strives to teach, support the arts

JENKINS TWP. Larry Vojtko has come a long way since he started at WVIA-FM as the morning person in 1982. Vice President of Radio Chris Norton said theres something many listeners might not know about Larry. In addition to being a classical music host as well as the music director and the programming manager, he is a fully trained music educator and has the opportunity to do music education every day. Thats how I got into it, really, Vojtko said. From what I understand, the station went through a series of radio people without the background in music and it wasnt working out. So they decided to ip it around and take somebody with a music background and teach them radio. So they took me in and gave
me a career. And while education always has been a mission of public television and radio, WVIA has been expanding those efforts over the years. On a recent Sunday, for example, Norton said the station hosted a jazz education event for the Berwick Area High School Jazz Band. It was an all-day workshop with ve professional jazz musicians, including pianist Bill Mays, drummer Marko Marcinko, Tom Hamilton on sax, Josh Davis on bass and trumpeter Eddie Severn. The pros performed, it was all taped for television and radio, he said. Its going to be a big jazz education feature this fall, part of a series of special jazz things weve done just in the last couple weeks here, part of Jazz Appreciation Month. WVIA also showcases younger
artists through programs such as the Poetry Out Loud Contest and High School Musical Previews. For the musical previews, Norton said, we bring in the student casts of high schools through the area. Lisa Mazzarella does the interviews with them, Paul Lazar does the recording, producing, engineering and editing. They sing a song or two, they tell about their characters and what the play is about. It takes just as much energy and discipline and teamwork at an arts event as it does at an athletic event, Mazzarella added. Of course, we are all proponents of the arts in the schools and so much of that is being taken away. But its just as important to form a discipline to create something these kids can do after they graduate.
And Erika Funke, who Norton calls the Queen of the Arts, showcases different visual or performing artists from the area each weekday on her show ArtScene. It really allows folks in the arts community who dont get the publicity that they need regularly to have this as a regular radio feature, Norton said. The approach we take is: How do we learn about this region and the people who live here, our way of life, our way of perceiving things, through Larrys choices of musicians or Georges choices of what we hear in the songs, or in the case of the arts interviews and education, what do we learn about the history of the region? Funke said. Were always trying to get to that sense of place. Thats really critical for all of us, no matter from which angle we approach it, she said.

Work experience: 2010 to present, Luzerne County Controller; 1989Grifth 2010, owner and manager of Rutter Auto Service, Nanticoke (Grifth temporarily closed the business when elected controller).
Touting experience
All four candidates say their experience would be an asset. Bednar pointed to her 25 years of private and public sector employment in nance and management, saying her credentials qualify her to be the best candidate in the race. Urban said he has a record of being an honest and transparent elected ofcial and is the most qualied candidate because his extensive knowledge of county operations provides the experience needed to monitor and examine nances and spending. Ceppa-Hirko emphasized her masters degree in business administration and 20 years of experience as a controller, township manager and in other
accounting and nance positions, saying she will provide solid stewardship of taxpayer dollars. Grifth said he has proven himself as an independent watchdog, exposing questionable spending and instituting policies that make county of-
cials and employees more accountable. The county controller oversees audits and reviews of county operations to provide a check and balance. The role of the controller changed under home rule, which eliminated the control-
lers power to accept or reject payment requests before money was released. That duty now falls on the appointed county manager and a centralized budget and nancial services division. However, the charter provides the controller with unrestricted
access to the records of all county divisions, departments, bureaus, ofces, agencies, authorities and boards. The controller also has the power to inspect all county property, equipment and facilities under the charter.
Monitoring power
Home rule charter support-
ers said the controller has more monitoring power because of this access. The controllers power to stop payments under the old system also was overstated because the controller ultimately had to release the money if an expense was legal and properly approved, even if the controller believed a payment was foolish, supporters say. The charter also kept the controllers subpoena power. Grifth has used subpoenas twice to obtain records from a tax collector and the sale of guns by the sheriffs ofce. Under home rule, the controller must stick to a schedule of audits and promptly notify county council and the manager of any detected irregularities, abuse or illegal acts. Potential criminal activity must be reported to law enforcement, the charter says. The controller is required to follow up on audit ndings to determine if deciencies have been corrected and prepare an annual public report. However, Grifth has complained the charter did not contain any provisions requiring council or the manager to take any action in response to his ndings and recommendations.

aney. Every single community in Luzerne County assists each other, he said in an email response from the city to questions about the Almond Lane re. The homeowner refused to comment. The 911 call for the re was received at 1:26 p.m. and the dispatch followed at 1:28 p.m. Engine 2, carrying hundreds of gallons of water, responded with three reghters. Ladder Truck 6 responded with two reghters, according to Freitas. The call was initially for a brush re and was upgraded to a structure re, he added. The engine left the station at 1:30 p.m. and arrived at 1:37 p.m. Delaney conrmed those times. The chief referred to the 911 report on the re, saying it was called in as a brush re and that the homeowner almost had the re out with a garden hose. The re departments report indicated reghters opened the outside wall to make sure the re did not extend into the house, he said. But Freitas said there were still ames when reghters arrived.

to 911, according to the NFPA 1710. The other apparatus should be on scene in eight minutes. The departments minimum stafng level of 11 reghters per shift puts it at a disadvantage, Freitas pointed out. There should be 17 per shift, enough to have four engines, a ladder truck, the chiefs vehicle and two ambulances in service. But that level was last met in December 2003. At the reduced level two engines are out of service. When 14 reghters are on duty, Engine 3 is activated. Thats happened on only 11 shifts since last December, according to the union. The chief said Engine 3, based at South Station on High Street, was last activated for a full shift on April 30. Engine 4, the quick attack pumper, is in service all the time at re headquarters along with Engine 1 and Truck 6. Freitas said Engine 4 is limited to use on certain streets. The bigger issue is stafng, however, he said. If one person is off, it basically results in us going down to 11 guys, he said. On the day of the Building Bridges event, reghters had scheduled time off long before an email was sent to reghters on April 30 asking them sign up for the re safety trailer, Freitas said. Off-duty reghters would receive comp time for their participation. Delaney said 45 reghters had four days to respond and none of them did. He also said reghters union president Mike Bilksi attempted to contact members to work the trailer. Fire prevention is just as important to me as re suppression is, Delaney said. This was also a very important community event that I was not going to cancel re department involvement because reghters could not staff the re safety trailer. As a result on-duty reghters were assigned to the trailer. Stafng it has not been an issue before, Freitas said. In fact reghters enjoy it and it was a hit at the park. I think we ran roughly 150 kids through there, Freitas said.

shift that Saturday. He and two other reghters were on Engine 1 at the park for the Building Bridges Community Callout event on May 4. He drove the engine there and it was used to provide power for the trailer from 1 p.m. to approximately 4:15 p.m., he said. The re call came in during that time, as well as one for a motor vehicle accident on Northampton Street. But Engine 1 was committed to the park and could not leave, prompting assistance from Kingston, which sent a re truck to the crash scene. To me, its unacceptable when we cant handle a routine (motor vehicle accident) in the city with our reghters. That was something that was never an issue, Freitas said. There were no injuries at the accident, noted Fire Chief Jay Del-
AIMEE DILGER/THE TIMES LEADER
Fire damaged a house on Almond Lane and the homeowner sprayed water from a garden hose on the ames while waiting for an re engine from across town to arrive.
They had it under control at 1:44 p.m. and the closed the scene and left at 2:42 p.m. If it was a bigger re, it could have been a lot worse, Freitas said. An ambulance also responded but was diverted to another call, prompting the dispatch of another ambulance to the re. The second ambulance was asked by 911 to go to a medical call, but was told by Truck 6 to continue to the re
scene. Truck 6 directed 911 to dispatch an outside ambulance to the medical call. In total, six reghters and one paramedic were at the re, Freitas said. The National Fire Protection Association sets standards for stafng and response. An engine company should have a minimum of four reghters and the rst re truck should arrive on scene in six minutes from the emergency call

The Tokens were formed in 1955 at Abraham Lincoln High School in Brooklyn and originally included Sedaka, who went on to greater fame in the late 1950s as one of the rst singer-songwriters of the rock-n-roll era. Siegel joined in 1956, and the group released its rst record later that same year. In early 1961, The Tokens rst hit the charts with Tonight I Fell in Love for a tiny independent label. That song, which eventually sold a million copies and reached No. 15 on the national charts, led to an appearance on American Bandstand and a contract with RCA Victor Records. By the end of 1961, The Tokens and their signature tune reached No. 1 in 36 countries, but The Lion Sleeps Tonight took a long and winding route to the top of the charts. While I was still in high school, I found that song, Siegel said in a recent interview with The Times Leader. It was a live recording by The Weavers, from Live at Carnegie Hall. Of course, it originally had no lyrics, just falsetto voice singing Wimoweh. I loved that piece of music, and I found that I could sing it like that too. Siegel taught The Weavers version (the song originated as Mbube and was rst recorded for a South African record company in 1939) to his bandmates, and they auditioned it for their RCA producers, who felt it needed lyrics. Songwriter George Weiss came up with the famous, In the jungle, the mighty jungle part, but Siegel now had a problem.

A season with promise for genealogists

in store for us. Many people today dont realize it, but from the 1800s through mid-20th century the railroad industry was a major employer and presence in the Wilkes-Barre and Scranton areas. If youre doing genealogy, theres a good chance youve found ancestors who were railroaders. The areas railroads declined with the loss of the anthracite coal industry and the rise of auto and air transportation. Want more information? At 7 p.m. on Wednesday the Genealogical Research Society of Northeastern Pennsylvania will offer Abandoned Railroads of Northeast Pennsylvania, a video projection presentation by Mike Guzzi. The societys headquarters is at 1100 Main St., Peckville. For a reservation, call (570) 383-7661. Meanwhile, the Northeast Pennsylvania Genealogical Society is continuing its project of digitizing key local records and preserving them for researchers. Volunteers are urgently needed because, as the society reports, We have been overwhelmed by the number of organizations, churches, cemeteries, funeral homes and newspapers that want us to digitize their records. To join the effort, which will benet genealogists for ages to come, his spring is shaping up as a busy time for the areas genealogists. Lets take a look at whats

contact the group at nepgsmail@gmail.com. The societys program on using DNA in research in genealogy, originally planned for this month, will be rescheduled for sometime this autumn. The Wyoming County Historical Society will hold its annual Open House 1-4 p.m. on May 19. On tap is a tour of the museum and genealogical library. A special display will feature the antique items collections of Doug Gay. The societys headquarters is at Bridge and Harrison streets, Tunkhannock. For information about the groups historical and genealogical holdings, go to www. pawchs.org. Looking ahead: Are you active with an historical society or preservation group anywhere in Luzerne County? Would you like your group to get involved with making and preserving oral history? If so, you wont want to miss the program scheduled for this year at the County-wide Summit of Community Historical Societies. Guest speaker is Dr. John D. Hepp IV of Wilkes University, who will discuss How to do Oral Histories. Sponsored by the Luzerne Foundation, the event is designed to promote cooperation among the areas many historical groups. The annual event is set for 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on June 29 at the Bear Creek Club House, on
White Haven Road, Bear Creek Village. To reserve a place, call (570) 823-6244, x 1. Exhibits: If you had ancestors in America at the time of the Civil War (1861-1865), or even if you didnt, youll enjoy the new exhibit at the Luzerne County Historical Society entitled Luzerne County in the Civil War. Youll nd everything from Col. Robert Bruce Ricketts uniform coat to a life-size homefront display, along with many historic photographs. Keyed to the exhibit is Dr. William Lewis new book Serving Their Country, Defending the Commonwealth, Saving the Union, which consists of photos and text about Luzerne County troops at the Battle of Gettysburg. The museum, right behind the Osterhout Free Library on South Franklin Street in Wilkes-Barre, is open noon-4 p.m. Tuesday-Saturday. Dont forget the societys other recent Civil War publication, Gone But Not Forgotten: Civil War Veterans of Northeastern Pennsylvania, by Ryan Lindbuchler. Incidentally, the societys Bishop Memorial Library, just two doors up from the museum, has good resources for tracing your own local Civil War-era ancestors, a preoccupation of many people during the current sesquicentennial of the war. The librarys hours are the same as the museums.

Once they added the lyrics, it no longer t with the original melody we were singing, Siegel said. So I had to create a new melody in the studio to t the lyrics. Even after all that work, it was originally released as the B-side to Tina, a folk song from Portugal. It was so against everything
else on the radio, they were reluctant to release it, he said. It was too weird to be the A-side, but a DJ in Connecticut turned the record over, and soon it was spreading all over the country. The song took on a second life when the original 1961 recording was included in Disneys The Lion King in 1994 and it became an international hit again. Theres not a 5-year-old in the world that doesnt know that song now, Siegel said.
And when Siegel sings it at the Kirby Center on Saturday, he will sing it in the same exact key he recorded it in 52 years ago. My musician friends ask me how I do it, and I tell them I have no idea, he said. I just open my mouth, and thats what comes out. I guess I am blessed.
Women who helped organize the event spoke with enthusiasm about what theyd wear, from shift dresses with the characteristic 1920s dropped waist to hats with rolled brims to outts that would have done a apper proud. It just shimmies when you walk, Roxanne Schulmann of Shavertown said at the time, describing her fringe-covered apper dress. I tried it on and felt my alter-personality coming out. Other articles of clothing that can contribute to a 1920s look include cloche hats, headbands with feathers and pearl necklaces of any length, said Barbara Gavlick, who owns Costumes by Barbara in Luzerne. For men, she recommends a seersucker suit and straw hat or perhaps the gangster look. At last years Providence Speakeasy party in Scranton, which raised money for the Jason Miller Playwrights Project, guests were encouraged not only to dress as if they were slipping discreetly into a bathtub-gin kind of place but to carry a ask or wear a fascinator, or piece of millinery, like a hat, with beads, veiling or other doodads to spice it up. Outts from the 1920s were just plain fun and must have made women feel free as they abandoned the corsets of the past, Sarah Regan said as that party approached. People were shedding the Victorian norms. Skirts were shorter. Hair was shorter. Obviously, the clothing was a lot of fun, a lot less constricting, she said. There was a little bit of rebellion going on. Now that you have some ideas about what to wear if you decide to throw a Gatsby party of your own, here are some activities you might include for

the evening: Dance the Charleston, or the Lindy Hop or the Black Bottom, perhaps after watching some YouTube videos on these vintage dances from the 1920s. (The Black Bottom seems to resemble a modern quickstep.) If youre feeling really energetic, you might want to stage a dance marathon, because those endurance contests became popular in the roaring 20s. Play such tunes as Alexanders Ragtime Band, and Puttin on the Ritz to add to the mood. If youd like your guests to be able to dance in a fountain, but dont actually have one,
consider substituting an inatable kiddie pool. Alternately, if youre in the mood to travel, you can tour Rosecliff Mansion in Newport, R.I., which was used in the lming of the 1974 movie version of The Great Gatsby, which starred Robert Redford and Mia Farrow. If you dont want to leave your armchair, you can have what might be the best Gatsby experience of all just by reading F. Scott Fitzgeralds classic novel. Its very poetic, said Fitzgerald fan Rachael Goetzke, who works at the Osterhout Library. It reads very beautifully.

The Woman Upstairs by Claire Messud; Knopf (272 pages, $25.95)
Dont just watch a movie, experience it!

ALL FEATURES NOW PRESENTED IN DIGITAL FORMAT
All Stadium Seating and Dolby Surround Sound
Midway through The Woman Upstairs, Claire Messuds spellbinding, psychologically acute and deliberately claustrophobic new novel, a character explains to the rst-person protagonist how our view of a story is framed by the way it begins. Theres no forgetting how 42-year-old Nora Eldridge begins her account of life as the woman upstairs that characteristically quiet woman at the end of the third-oor hallway who never makes a sound but is still unspeakably angry. Im a good girl, Im a nice girl, Nora tells us, as she recounts how she has always done what she was told deferring her dreams of becoming an artist while tending to her dying mother, her aging father and her career as a third-grade teacher. Nora is also single, childless, lonely and furious. Dont all women feel the same, she asks? The only difference is how much we know we feel it. Expressly invoking Ralph Ellison as she describes her newfound awareness of her invisibility, Nora sets herself the task of guring out how to use that invisibility, to make it burn. But like the narrator of Invisible Man which also opens at a point after the upcoming story has run its course Nora rst steps back, recounting the events that have stoked her rage. Unfolding during the 200405 school year in Cambridge, Mass., her story revolves around the three Shahids, in town from Paris for the year. Eight-year-old Reza a canonical boy, a child from a fairy tale is one of her students. Skandar teaches the ethics of history and is at Harvard on a fellowship. His wife, Sirena, is an artist who creates multimedia installations highlighting the gap between dreams and reality. That gap and the price we pay when forgetting that our vision of the world is necessarily partial has preoccupied Messud from the beginning. Its crucial again here, as the lovestarved Nora falls hard for all three Shahids, each of whom fullls an unmet need in her own emotionally deprived life. Reza allows Nora to imagine herself a mother. Skandar foreign, sexy, intellectual is the sort of man a grown-up I would always have thought I could never know. Sirena, with whom she comes to share an art studio, allows Nora to see herself as the artist she has always wanted to be. How much of Noras fantasy is true and to what degree the Shahids must share the blame when its not is the real subject of Messuds novel. She may invokes Ellison, but as is often true with her work, the writer who comes to mind is James with his involuted prose, often unreliable narrators and focus on the disconnect between American innocence and European experience. It becomes increasingly clear that we cant always rely on Noras view of the events she describes.

Shanghai features freebies from Bund to art districts

By JOE McDONALD AP Business Writer
SHANGHAI Chinas biggest city and nancial hub is known for designer boutiques and ne dining. Yet walletdraining Shanghai also offers activities that cost nothing, from walking on the riverfront Bund to sculpture parks and historic sites. Here are ve of them. The Bund A walk along the Bund is an introduction to the essence of big, bold, fashionable, commercial Shanghai. The avenue is lined with art deco buildings from the 1920s and 30s, when Shanghai was the New York of the Far East. The Bund was its Wall Street, home to international banks and trading houses. A handful of foreign and Chinese entrepreneurs made fortunes. The citys relative stability attracted migrants who left behind poverty and ghting among warlords elsewhere. Other areas of the city have been bulldozed to make way for ofce and apartment towers, but the Bunds classic appearance has been preserved and its buildings renovated. At the Bunds north end is the Peace Hotel, one of Shanghais most famous buildings, where celebrities such as Cole Porter stayed before World War II. Nearby is a statue of Chen Yi, the citys rst communist mayor in the 50s. Farther south, buildings including the former headquarters of the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank have been renovated and now house designer shops like Ermenegildo Zegna and Cartier. At the corner of Guangdong
Road, the seventh-oor terrace of restaurant M on the Bund offers a panoramic view across the river to Pudong, the nancial district that was constructed from scratch over the past two decades. The Bunds name, which rhymes with fund, comes from the Hindi word for barrier and refers to the riverside embankment where ships were loaded and unloaded. Today, the commercial piers are gone and the view of the river from the street is blocked by a oodwall built in the 90s. Visitors can climb to the top of the barrier where a wide pedestrian walkway gives a view of the river and Pudongs forest of skyscrapers, with the Oriental Pearl Television Tower looming over them. Art districts The Hongfang Creative Industrial Zone, created in 2005 out of a cluster of renovated factories, houses galleries including the Shanghai Sculpture Space, open Tuesday-Sunday, which shows work by Chinese and foreign contemporary artists. The building surrounds a grassy courtyard with sculptures that include bulls and horses made of auto parts and car-size heads of Albert Einstein and former Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping. The district is on Weihai West Road, a ve-minute walk east of the Hongqiao Road station on the No. 3 subway or 10 minutes west of Weihai West Road station on the No. 10. The Moganshan Road Art District, on the bank of Suzhou Creek, is older, grittier and more commercial. The citys most prominent contemporary galleries locals as well
as outposts of European and U.S. galleries are housed in converted textile factories and warehouses dating to the 1930s. Moganshans mix of industrial and arty is a favorite backdrop for Chinese fashion photographers. Its a 20-minute walk south of the Zhongtan Station on the No. 3 or 4 subways. Sculpture garden Jingan Sculpture Park, on Beijing West Road west of the North-South Expressway, is an oasis of green among high-rise apartment blocks. The six-hectare (15-acre) park has monumental works in stone, steel and other materials by artists including American Jim Dine, Belgiums Wim Delvoye and Ram Katzir of Israel. Some are sturdy enough for children to climb. On weekends, kids skate on the sidewalks while adults play badminton on the lawn. Historic sites The Former Residence of Mao Zedong commemorates the period in 1924 when the future leader of Chinas revolution was a communist activist living in Shanghai. The two-story space has period furniture and displays on early Communist Party history. The building, wedged between small shops, is an example of shikumen, or stone gate, architecture. The home is open Tuesday-Sunday, 9 a.m.- 11:30 a.m., 1 p.m.-4:30 p.m., at No. 120 Maoming North Road, south of Weihai Road, a short walk south of the Nanjing West Road station on the No. 2 subway. The Memorial of the First National Congress of the Communist Party of China commemo-

rates the rst party meeting in 1921 by Mao Zedong and 12 fellow leftists including two from the Moscow-controlled Communist International. Visitors can see the parlor where the rst congress was held. The memorial on Huangpi South Road and Xingye Road south of Peoples Square also has a museum about party history. The party was founded in Shanghai in hopes of inspiring a revolution by the citys factory workers. But after devastating attacks by Gen. Chiang Kaisheks Nationalist government, the party withdrew to the countryside, where it led a peasant uprising that became the model for rural leftists across Asia, Africa and Latin America. Ironically, the memorial abuts the tony Xintiandi complex of boutiques and restaurants. It is a product of Dengs market-style reforms launched in the 1980s to revive an economy nearly destroyed by three decades of Soviet-style central planning. Parks Peoples Square is the heart of modern Shanghai. Built on the site of a colonial-era horse track,
655-8458 * www.stuckertours.com
it was the only large open space in the crowded city for decades until a wave of park construction in the 90s. On the squares southern edge is the Shanghai Museum. Many items from its extensive collections of porcelains, jades, paintings and bronzes were donated by families that ed to Hong Kong following the 1949 communist victory but have since reconciled with the mainland. To the northeast is the Urban Planning Exhibition Hall, with a scale model of Shanghais fastchanging cityscape and exhibits on its evolution. To the northwest is the Shanghai Art Museum in the horse tracks former clubhouse. It has displays of contemporary art and is the site of the Shanghai Biennale, held
in even-numbered years. The square is just south of Peoples Square Station on the No. 1 or 8 subways. Fuxing Park, southwest of Peoples Square on the opposite side of the North-South Expressway, is a French-style park with fountains and gardens that once was part of the French Concession neighborhood during Shanghais colonial era. In the mornings, locals dance and practice tai-chi or martial arts here. Lu Xun Park, in the Hongkou district north of downtown, has lawns, trees and a lake. It commemorates Lu Xun, Chinas most prominent 20th century author, a leftist who spent his nal years in Shanghai and died in 1936. His tomb in the park bears an inscription from Mao.

Pens drop another in Providence

Wilkes-Barre/Scranton heads home down 2-0
By KEN CASTRO For the Times Leader
PSU FOOTBALL
4 BRUINS
PENGUINS
PROVIDENCE, R.I.The Providence Bruins rode a four-goal first period to a 4-2 win over the Wilkes Barre/Scranton Penguins in Game Two of their Calder Cup playoff series. Providence, the regular season champion who amassed 105 points, gained a 2-0 series lead against the Penguins, who had dropped a robust 8-5 contest on Friday night. The Pens calmed the host teams
offense for the majority of the final two periods, but all of what the Bruins need to secure the win was achieved in the early going. WBS finished with 40 shots on goal to the Bruins 29. The game was more five-on-five and I think that was the big difference between the first and second period, said Pens head coach John Hynes. That (power play) was where they gained a little bit of momentum. We were doing some good things on five-on-five then the
referees got involved, and when that happened that became a power play, penalty kill scrimmage. Providence connected on four of eight extra man opportunities through five periods of play in their match up with WBS. In what would prove to be the first instance of an unsettling trend for Hynes club in the first, the Pens were working a man down as a result of a Joey Mormina roughing call at 4:25. Warren Peters, however, appeared to put the Pens in good
stead when he hacked at and subsequently scored on a rebound down low in tight on Svedberg 15 seconds later. Peters shorthanded goal, his second overall of the Calder Cup playoffs, certainly fired up the Bruins, who replied with a four-goal outburst. Providences Chris Bourque figured in three of his clubs four goals in the first.

Pittsburgh advances on OT goal

Brooks Orpik sends Penguins past pesky Islanders with Game 6 winner.

Not much is known about Tyler Ferguson, who could be Penn States next starting QB.

New kid on the block
UNIONDALE, N.Y. Brooks Orpik scored 7:49 into overtime, and the Pittsburgh Penguins overcame three one-goal deficits in Game 6 to eliminate the New York Islanders with a 4-3 victory on Saturday night. PENGUINS Orpik, a defenseman, took a shot from the ISLANDERS left point that might have clipped Islanders forward Brad Boyes on its way past goalie Evgeni Nabokov. The Penguins advanced to face the Ottawa Senators in the second round of the playoffs despite being outshot 38-21 in the decisive win. The Islanders were just 5:16 away from sending the series back to Pittsburgh for one more game when another defenseman, Paul Martin, got the Penguins even for the third time. Evgeni Malkin assisted on the tying and winning goals. On Martins goal, Malkin curled behind the New York net with the puck and sent a hard pass high in the zone to Martin, who ripped a drive through traffic in front. Michael Grabner had given the Islanders a 3-2 edge 2:21 into the third. He scored his second career NHL postseason goal off a feed from Keith Aucoin to give the Islanders their third lead on their 30th shot against the top-seeded Penguins. The goal left Pittsburgh netminder Tomas Vokoun sprawled out on his stomach. The teams had alternated wins since the Penguins took the opener 5-0 at home. Pittsburgh got into position to advance to the second round for the first time since 2010 when it won 4-0 in Game 5 with Vokoun in goal instead of Marc-Andre Fleury. Vokoun had trouble early

April 24 being on the disabled list with a hamstring injury to break the 3-3 tie. On Friday, New Yorks rehabbing outfielder Curtis Granderson homered to help the win. I definitely wasnt going to try to do anything stupid there I was just going to use my baserunning instincts there to try to make sure I get good turns and make the distance shorter from first to home, Neal said. And
Melky did a good job of hitting that ball in the corner so I could get around. For the second straight night the RailRiders put up doubledigits in hits tallying 11 on Saturday. They got things started early as 12 batters came to bat in the first two innings. Corban Joseph, who led off the game with

Tyler Ferguson may very well be Penn States starting quarterback by the end of the summer. But even in this era of instant recruiting updates, little is known about him as a player and as a person. The California native transferred to Penn State in January after one year in the junior college ranks at College of the Sequoias. He edged out Steven Bench during spring practice and will now battle top recruit Christian Hackenberg for the job when preseason camp opens in the summer. Beyond that? Well have to ask his roommate from his first semester on campus. Hes a great guy, said the Wyoming Valleys own Eugene Lewis. Hes actually very laid back. He talks to me and we have great conversations. I really enjoyed being his roommate and I really think hes a good guy whos going to be very successful. Lewis, who has been lauded by coach Bill OBrien for his positive attitude, got to help both of the Nittany Lions long-distance quarterbacks acclimate to life in Pennsylvania. The promising wide receiver roomed with Bench, who arSee PSU, Page 9C

Pitcher taking move in stride
CRAIN GAME
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. BEST OF THE WEEK: Its been The Office week in NEPA, with a full house last weekend at PNC Field for the sendoff of the cast and Friday nights crowd treated to an Office-themed night. There were cutouts of the characters and they replaced the G-Braves faces on the scoreboard when batters were introduced. MISSED OPPORTUNITY: Bark in the Park night was Saturday, with dogs getting their day in the sun (and into the night). Dogs are mans best friend, but what about mans other friends? Why dont they get an In the Park night? Wheres Meow at the Show Night for the cats of NEPA? Or Sssssssaturday with Ssssssnakes? (Pets, of course, not the ones that might appear in the brush along the Montage Mountain area). Heck, how about us making a pitch for the pet goldfish? For whatever reason, dogs get their days in many baseball stadiums across the country while other pets are not honored. If Puppy Bowl can make room for other animals, so can baseball. COMING UP: The Riders have just two home games this week, and with today being Mothers Day, we have to let all the moms know about todays game. The first 1,000 moms will be honored with a Flower Giveaway. Its also Family FUNday, which means autographs before the game, and kids run the bases after the game (which helps wear them out a little so mom can relax when they get home).
WEEK AHEAD
Theres just two more matchups in this eight-game homestand, and the RailRiders are just 2-3 through the first five games. After Mondays contest with the G-Braves, the locals have eight on the road, where success has been plentiful they are 12-1 in their last 13 starts away from PNC Field. Heres a closer look at this weeks upcoming opponents for the Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre RailRiders. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre finishes off a four-game set with the Braves today and tomorrow at PNC Field. The RailRiders have controlled the season series with the Braves after sweeping the four games in Gwinnett. Brett Marshall and Graham Stoneburner are set to start the final two games of the series for SWB going against Daniel Rodriguez and Yohan Flande. Gwinnett slugger Ernesto Mejia leads the I.L. in home runs beginning last weekend with eight longballs and 23 RBI. Like many power hitters though, he also strikes a lot averaging more than a strikeout per game. When Gwinnett leaves town on Monday so do the RailRiders. They head on the road for eight games in Ohio starting with a swing for four in Toledo. The series starts on Tuesday and wraps up Friday. The Triple-A affiliate of the Detroit Tigers has struggled this season entering the weekend with the worst record in the International League. The Mud Hens also have the lowest batting average, least amount of runs scored and most strikeouts my batters in the league, despite being packed with prospects. Outfielders Nick Castellanos and Avisail Garcia are the No. 1 and No. 2 ranked prospects in the organization according to Baseball America. Right-hander reliever Bruce Rondon is ranked third. Castellanos, 21, is batting around .250 this season, but had a batting average last year in the minors of .320. Garcia, who is also 21-years-old, was just promoted from High Class A Lakewood. Rondon has spent time in the Majors this season and entered the weekend not allowing a run for Toledo in 10 appearances. Outfielder Quintin Berry played 94 games for Detroit last season and is hitting under .200 this season. Familiar faces in pitcher Phil Coke and infielder Kevin Russo, who were both in New Yorks organization, are on Toledos roster. This is the first meeting between the clubs this season. Once the RailRiders leave Toledo they will take about a two and a half hour ride to Columbus to face the Triple-A affiliate of the Cleveland Indians. The teams met last month at PNC Field with the Clippers winning three of the four games. The teams will play Saturday to begin the four-game series. During the series in Moosic, Columbus won three of four, but all games were close. Starting pitcher Carlos Carrasco, who was struck by a liner in that series, is back from the injury. Daisuke Matsuzaka, who pitched in the series, is on the D.L. The club has been getting a spark offensively from Matt LaPorta, who joined the team at the beginning of the month and has been on fire starting the weekend with a .370 average and four home runs in just seven games.
Betances sent to the Bullpen

The New York Yankees have decided to move once-prized prospect Dellin Betances to the bullpen.

MOOSIC In 2011, Dellin Betances was ranked at the top of New York Yankees prospects lists by several outlets and even made his Major League debut. Expectations were high for the 6-foot-8, 260-pound, right-handed pitcher who began the 2012 season with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. But as he struggled last season with an ERA over 6.00 in Triple-A, he was demoted to Double-A Trenton. He showed some flashes of getting back to top prospect form for the Thunder, so he got another crack with Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre in 2013. The 25-year-old has had some problems this season for the RailRiders, but three of his six starts including two of his last three were very respectable. He said that after his last start on May 5 which was five no-hit innings he learned that the organization was thinking about moving him to the bullpen. Then after not being listed to start for the RailRiders during his scheduled turn in the rotation, he officially got word Friday that he would be moving to the bullpen. I was a little upset because I felt like I was getting better, Betances said. But at the same time, I understand the decision is coming from up top and I just have to do what I have to do to make myself better. If it was up to me, I would love to start. But at the same time, I understand certain decisions have to be made and, hopefully, the bullpen is something that works for me and I can get more reps so that will be cool. Betances then pitched out of the bullpen for just the fourth time in his career as a pro Friday night.

Dellin Betances
And while he was disappointed and caught off guard, he didnt disappoint. He worked 2 1/3 scoreless innings, only allowing a walk and striking out three in a steady, heavy rain. He was even looking relaxed and having fun, fielding a groundball in between the mound and first base, then running to the bag himself for the last out he recorded in the outing. I try to enjoy myself because sometimes this game is hard, so you have to try to appreciate it every time you go out there, Betances added. I just thank the Lord for every opportunity I get. Its just one of those things that when I have fun I feel like Im at my best but at the same time I try to focus especially in situations like this. There are certainly more positives for Betances, who was drafted in the eighth round in 2006 out of Grand Street Campus High School in Brooklyn and grew up a Yankees fan. New York closer Mariano Rivera was a starter in the minors. He even started 10 games for New York in 1995. But things didnt exactly work out for him in that department. And now, hes likely a first-ballot Hall of Famer. A move to the pen may be perfect for Betances. He has always been watched closely by the organization so that he wouldnt get overworked after
having Tommy John surgery in 2009 and has never pitched more than 131 innings in a season. Most successful Major League starters will throw about 200 innings every season. For me as a starter, you dont go real aggressive, especially early on. For me as a reliever, you come in and the adrenaline is going, the pitcher added. Its definitely different and the velo (velocity) is going to be more consistent. Im just going out there to try to throw strikes. Thats the key and keep working as much as I can to stay consistent. New York general manager Brian Cashman told the New York Post that the move was necessary because the team is looking ahead to 2014, and Betances is out of options. So if hes not on the Major League roster next season, he will be exposed to waivers and could be lost to another organization. He said the club still thinks highly of the prospect. As a starter, he pitches at 92-96. Maybe in the pen, he can pitch at 96 and top out at 100. Who knows? He is healthy. He still has a high ceiling, the GM said. Every reliever is a failed starter. Mariano Rivera is a failed starter. He is going to the Hall of Fame, but he is a failed starter. We will see what we have here.

Pirates pounce on Mets in NY again

NEW YORK Francisco Liriano struck out nine and pitched into the sixth inning to win his debut with Pittsburgh and help the Pirates beat the New York Mets 11-1 Saturday. Jordy Mercer homered twice and Jose Tabata had four hits, including a two-run shot the Pirates, who teed off on left-hander Jonathon Niese, finally chasing him during a big fifth inning. The Mets have struggled to score at home, but Niese (2-4) would have put any team in a hole. He tied a career high by allowing eight runs, and walked more batters than he struck out for the fourth time in eight starts this season. Liriano (1-0), returning from a broken non-throwing arm, allowed one run in 5 1-3 innings and 90 pitches. He gave up six hits and two walks.
Giants 10, Braves 1
SAN FRANCISCO Madison Bumgarner struck out a season-high 11 over seven innings, Gregor Blanco entered in the fifth as a pinch hitter and drove in four runs, and the San Francisco Giants routed the Atlanta Braves. The left-handed Bumgarner baffled the Braves, getting them to chase his fastball up in the zone and bite on curveballs in the dirt. Bumgarner (4-1) gave up just four hits and walked two.
Cardinals 3, Rockies 0
Cubs 8, Nationals 2
WASHINGTON Dominant early, Stephen Strasburg fell apart after one of Ryan Zimmermans two errors and wound up dropping his fifth consecutive decision, as Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Edwin Jackson worked into the sixth inning and hit a two-run double for good measure. Jackson (1-5) retired 12 of Washingtons first 13 batters and allowed two runs and four hits in 5 1-3 innings. He earned his first win under a $52 million, four-year contract he signed after leaving Washington as a free agent.
ST. LOUIS Adam Wainwright carried a no-hitter into the eighth inning and was one out from the St. Louis Cardinals second straight one-hitter over the suddenly punchless Colorado Rockies. The Rockies had been hitless in 49 consecutive at-bats before Nolan Arenado lined a clean hit to center field with one out in the eighth. Eric Young led off Friday nights game with a broken-bat single off rookie Shelby Miller then failed to put a runner on until Todd Helton walked with one out in the fifth inning a day later. CINCINNATI Jay Bruce homered and doubled twice as the Cincinnati Reds delighted a sellout crowd by moving five games over .500 for the first time this season. Six Reds players drove in two runs each, including starting pitcher Mat Latos (4-0).

KANSAS CITY, Mo. Vernon Wells hit a go-ahead tworun homer and made a long running catch to preserve a 3-2 victory for Andy Pettitte and the New York Yankees over the Kansas City Royals on Saturday night. Pettitte (4-2) showed off his mastery of the Royals once more, allowing a run-scoring groundout by Lorenzo Cain and a solo homer by Billy Butler in seven stellar innings. The 40-year-old left-hander gave up five hits, struck out seven and improved to 15-3 in his career against the Royals. Kansas City hasnt beaten Pettitte in 14 starts dating to Sept. 4, 2000. James Shields (2-3) was hurt by a throwing error on third baseman Mike Moustakas in the second inning that resulted in the Yankees first run.

Americas Cup expected to go on after fatal wreck

SAN FRANCISCO The head of the Americas Cup planning effort said Saturday he expects sailings most prestigious event to go forward after the death of a sailor on a training run in the San Francisco Bay. In an interview Saturday morning, Stephen Barclay said he would await the results of an internal examination of Thursdays accident before making the formal decision. Barclay also said a decision in whether to make safety changes to the boats or the course will be made after the results are released. Reggata director Iain Murray is heading the probe. Olympic gold medal winner Andrew Bart Simpson, 36, was killed when he was trapped under the wreckage of the Artemis Racing sailboat that capsized during a training run. Barclay said investigators are expected to announce a probable cause of the wreck early next week. Theres a lot of speculation of what happened, Barclay said. We want to end the speculation. Murray said at a press conference that the 72-foot catamaran was attempting to change direction and turn downwind when it capsized. Though difficult, the maneuver was normal, he said. The boat nose-dived, and all that we know from that point in that maneuver is that the boat ended up upside down, capsized, broken into many pieces, Murray said. One hull snapped. Investigators will have to determine whether a structural problem caused the yacht to flip, or if the capsize broke the boat. Last fall, Artemis said the front beam of the catamaran was damaged during structural tests, delaying the boats christening. A structural engineer has been included in the investigation, Barclay said. Barclay said that organizers are planning to meet with the Americas Cup teams Tuesday morning to discuss the probe. Oracle Racing, the only team now capable of practicing, has agreed not to sail until at
least Monday. Oracle Racing won the last Americas Cup in 2010 in Spain, and its owner, billionaire Larry Ellison, picked the San Francisco Bay to defend the cup. Three teams have signed up to challenge and are scheduled to begin racing one another in July to determine who will take on Oracle. The finals against Oracle begin in August.

Kenseth gets first victory at Darlington

Nadal reaches final again at Madrid Open

By JOSEPH WILSON Associated Press
DARLINGTON, S.C. Matt Kenseth passed his Joe Gibbs Racing teammate Kyle Busch with 13 laps to go to win his first Southern 500 on Saturday night. Busch had the strongest car for much of the race and led for 265 of the 367 laps at Darlington Raceway. But his machine appeared to fall away at the worst possible time and he faded to sixth. Denny Hamlin completed his first full race since suffering a compression fracture in a vertebra in his lower back on March 24. Jeff Gordon would up third in his 700th straight career start. Points leader Jimmie Johnson was fourth and Kevin Harvick fifth. Kenseths victory came without crew chief Jason Ratcliff, who was suspended for the No. 20 Toyota having an illegal part in a win at Kansas. Carl Edwards finished seventh, followed by Juan Pablo Montoya and Dale Earnhardt Jr. Ryan Newman rounded out the top 10. This is a dream come true, Kenseth shouted on his radio. Thank you guys very much. Kenseth had won three times here in the Nationwide Series, but had never come closer than third in Sprint Cup. Once he cleared Busch, Kenseth had smooth sailing to the finish to win for the third time in his debut JGR season. It was Kenseths 27th career Sprint Cup victory. No one matched Busch for most of the race. He had powered to victory in the Nationwide event here Friday night and was running strong again after taking the lead from older brother and pole-sitter Kurt Busch 74 laps in. Kyle Busch stayed on top through several stretches of green-flag racing and through the first four restarts. But his machine couldnt keep up after Kenseth went by. Crew chief Dave Rogers said Busch had a cut tire and only 12 pounds of pressure left when he went into the garage. Honestly, I have only dreamed about winning the Southern 500, Kenseth said. This to me feels bigger than probably any win in my career. The win came with Wally Brown calling the shots as crew chief. Ratcliff is expected back for the next race after JGR had penalties imposed by NASCAR reduced on appeal. The best chance to defeat Busch appeared to come from Kasey Kahne, who pressured his JGR rival on the restart after the fourth caution period. Kahne looked like he had cleared Busch but the car got loose and the back end slammed the wall. Kahne was not happy with Buschs maneuver. Three times this year me and Kyle had contact and I had a chance, capable-winning cars, its disappointing on the points side and not winning some of these races, Kahne said. Kurt Busch had hoped to go from an upside-down finish when his car went airborne late and crash-landed on Ryan Newman at Talladega last week to his first Sprint Cup victory in two years at Darlington.

Allmendinger enjoys taking 1st laps at Indy
MADRID Rafael Nadal reached his seventh consecutive final since returning from a knee injury, brushing aside wild-card entry Pablo Andujar 6-0, 6-4 at the Madrid Open on Saturday. Nadal had little trouble extending his winning streak in clay-court semifinals to 46 matches, quickly finishing his overmatched countryman after winning the first six games. Nadal can win his fifth title since coming back from sevenmonth layoff healing his left knee. I couldnt have asked for a better run of results, said Nadal, a two-time champion in the Spanish capital. Five months ago I wouldnt have dreamed of this return. I want to thank all those who supported me through that time. The Spaniard will play Stanislas Wawrinka after the 15thranked Swiss recovered late to defeat Tomas Berdych 6-3, 4-6, 6-4. Serena Williams and Maria Sharapova will meet for the No. 1 ranking and the womens title after winning semifinals in straight sets. Nadal dominated the outclassed Andujar. The clay-court experts groundstrokes usually were enough to force Andujar to make errors and if not, Nadal knew when to go for a winner or approach the net to finish off the point. The worst moment for the 113th-ranked Andujar came when he ceded his third straight service game with a double fault. But in the second set Andujar shook off his jitters and had three break points for a 4-2 lead, only for Nadal to hold his serve. I played a very, very good first set, playing aggressively, Nadal said. Pablo played more aggressively in the second set and had a chance at a break, but luckily it got away from him. Andujar continued to prove feisty, but Nadal hit a winner to set up a break point for 5-4 that he converted when Andujars drop shot fell short. The top-ranked Williams will
have a chance to win her 50th title after beating Sara Errani of Italy 7-5, 6-2. No. 2 Sharapova got her 500th win at all levels after defeating Ana Ivanovic 6-4, 6-3. Sharapova has won all 10 sets she has played on Madrids outdoor red clay court. Williams, however, boasts a 12-2 record against the Russian. After a skittish start, Williams dominated Errani and broke her final service game in both sets. I feel I played solid, Williams said. In the second set more than in the first, I made a few less errors, which is something I needed to do. The defending champion improved to 5-0 against the seventh-ranked Errani and to 30-2 this year. Williams said Sharapova will pose a difficult challenge. I feel this whole tournament I have only played clay-court opponents, said Williams. All have been smaller than me. Tomorrow will be a different game, more power. Williams struggled with her shot-making early, uncharacteristically misfiring on three smashes in the first set, which she still managed to pull out after falling behind 3-1. The 15-time Grand Slam winner then started clicking with her serve and held two games to love, but she needed four set points before finally breaking Errani with a forehand winner placed just inside the line to grab the lead. Ahead a set, Williams pressed her advantage and eased through the second. On Sunday, Williams will play her first final on red clay since 2002. Last years trophy at the Caja Magica came on the experimental blue clay surface that was removed following players complaints it was too slippery. After Sharapova won the first set, Ivanovic opened a 2-0 lead in the second. But Sharapova responded and stole her serve twice, sealing the second break with a lob over the top of her Serb rival. Sharapova has beaten Ivanovic, a fellow former No. 1, in their last six meetings.

Woods, Garcia feud as Lingmerth leads

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. A rift between Tiger Woods and Sergio Garcia attracted all the attention on a stormy day at Sawgrass. Swedish rookie David Lingmerth quietly went about his business and wound up atop the leaderboard Saturday in The Players Championship. Lingmerth finished a wild day with an 8-foot eagle putt on the par-5 16th and a 10-foot birdie on the island-green 17th to reach 12-under par when the third round was suspended because of darkness. It was delayed nearly two hours because of threatening storms. Woods, Garcia and Henrik Stenson all former Players champions were two shots behind. Ten players had to return Sunday morning to complete the round. The Woods-Garcia relationship already was frosty, and an incident on the par-5 second hole was sure to add another layer of chill. Garcia was hitting his second shot from the fairway when he was disrupted by a burst of cheers from the large crowd gathered around Woods in the trees. Garcia snapped his head over to the left and glared. The cheer was for Woods taking a fairway metal from his bag, a risky shot because he had only a 15-foot gap to escape the Woods. During the storm delay, Garcia suggested in a television interview that Woods was the instigator. Well, obviously Tiger was on the left and it was my shot to hit, Garcia said. He moved all of the crowd that he needed to move. I waited for that. I wouldnt say that he didnt see that I was ready, but you do have a feel when the other guy is going to hit and right as I was in the top of the backswing, I think he must have pulled like a 5-wood or a 3-wood and obviously everybody started screaming. So that didnt help very much. Woods was aware of the comments and said Garcia didnt have his facts straight. The marshals, they told me already hit, so I pulled a club and was getting ready to play my shot, Woods said. And then I hear his comments afterwards, and not real surprising that hes complaining about something. Asked if they talked it over when play resumed, Woods replied, We didnt do a lot of talking. Garcia wound up making a bogey on the second hole to lose the one-shot lead he had at the start of the round. Woods pulled off his shot, and then blasted out of the bunker to about 10 feet and made birdie to take the lead. When storm clouds moved in, Garcia already hit a tough shot onto the green at No. 7, and Woods had to mark his ball in the fairway when the siren sounded to stop play. When they resumed, Wood hit onto the seventh green, and Garcia putted before Woods got there. They were on the 15th hole when play was stopped because of darkness. Woods gave a brief TV interview, and Garcia came over to shake his hand. Garcia didnt back away from his TV interview. It happens to me when Im in Spain,

he said of the large crowds. Obviously, it happens to him everywhere he goes. He gets a lot of people following, and I think you have to be very careful because theres another guy playing. Sometimes you have to pay attention to whats going on because if the other guys hitting and you do something when youre in the crowd, the crowd is going to respond and its going to affect the other player. I think sometimes you have to be a bit more careful. Told about Woods comment re-
garding Garcia complaining, the Spaniard replied, Thats fine. At least Im true to myself. I know what Im doing, and he can do whatever he wants. Meanwhile, The Players Championship was shaping up to be quite a finish. Lingmerth, who began his rookie season by losing in a playoff at the Humana Challenge, poured in par putts along the back nine to stay around the leaders, and then he raced by them with his eagle-birdie finish. He returns Sunday to play the 18th hole.
Stenson was the first to reach 12 under when he made a 20-foot birdie putt at the par-5 ninth, but what appeared to be a shoo-in birdie on the par-5 11th turned into a bogey when his second shot when just long and down a steep slope. It took him two chips to reach the green and he made bogey, and Stenson made another bogey on the 15th. Garcia made par from deep in the woods and bogey from the middle of the fairway. He came close to a hole-inone on the 13th hole, and went bunkerto-bunker for bogey on the 14th hole. Woods was far steadier, though certainly not spectacular. That birdie he made on No. 2 was his only one of the day. Jeff Maggert, who also had a share of the lead at one point early in the day, bogeyed the last hole for a 66 and was the clubhouse leader at 9-under 207. Casey Wittenberg and Ryan Palmer also were at 9-under and still had to finish their rounds. Lee Westwood whiffed a shot on his opening hole then his club nicked a pine tree on his downswing and the club went nearly a foot past the ball, leading to double bogey. Westwood was 6-under with three holes to play. Hunter Mahans tee shot on the 15th hole got stuck high up in a tree, leading to double bogey, but then he rolled in an eagle putt from off the 16th green. He three-putted the 17th green for bogey and wound up with a 71, putting him at 8-under 208 with David Lynn of England, who had a 68. Lynn lost in a playoff last week at Quail Hollow. Through all that, Woods and Garcia generated the biggest buzz. Woods and Garcia have never had a friendly relationship. Woods was said to be put off when Garcia celebrated wildly after winning a Monday night Battle at Bighorn exhibition in 2000. During the 2002 U.S. Open at Bethpage Black, which Woods won wire-to-wire, Garcia complained that play should have been stopped in the second round because of the rain.
PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. When a weather delay halted the third round of The Players Championship on Saturday, 49-yearold Jeff Maggert was the surprise clubhouse leader after his best round of golf in years. Maggert, a three-time PGA Tour winner, birdied six of his first 10 holes on his way to a 6-under 66, his best score at TPC Sawgrass since he opened with a 65 en route to a third-place finish in 1994. At 9-under-par overall, Maggert was three shots out of the lead and with a chance to become the oldest champion here since Fred Funk won the 2005 Players at 48 years, 9 months. My expectations are the same as they were 10 years ago, Maggert said. I expect to play well and be competitive on Sunday. Maggert has not won since 2006 and has just one top-10 in three years a fifth-place showing at last years Humana Challenge. The $224,000 paycheck helped him slip into the top 125 on the money list at No. 123 to qualify for The Players. But Maggert felt his ballstriking some of the most reliable since he joined the Tour in 1991 would give him a chance on a layout that demands precision. The difference Saturday was a red-hot putter. Maggert needed just 22 putts, including eight on his way to a 31 on his opening nine holes. I didnt expect to do most of that today, he joked. Maggert cooled down and missed an 11-foot birdie putt on the par-3 17th hole, then made his only bogey of the day on the daunting par-4 18th hole. For a guy who will be on the Champions Tour a year from now, Maggert will take a 66 and a chance for his biggest win. Thats why Im here, he said. This course really suits my game at this point in my career. OOSTHUIZEN GETS HOT: Louis Oosthuizen carded six straight birdies on the ninth through 14th holes during a 5-under 67. Oosthuizen, who began the day even-par, tied three players Billy Horschel, John Mallinger and Mike Weir for the most consecutive birdies on Tour this season. Oosthuizen had a chance for seven consecutive birdies but missed a 10-foot birdie on the par-4 15th. He capped his birdie run with a 56-foot putt but did not need to make a putt longer than six feet on the previous five holes. STROUDS ACE: Chris Stroud made a hole-in-one on the par-3 13 hole, playing 186 yards the second ace there this week, joining Michael Thompson. TPC Sawgrass suits Stroud, who has not made it to Sunday in three of his past four starts this year. He tied for 10th and 12th in two of his three appearances in The Players. PGA MINORITy COllEGIATE: Kevin Kirakossian shot a 5-under 67 in windy conditions Saturday on PGA Golf Clubs Wanamaker Course to help defending champion Texas-Pan American take the second-round lead in the PGA Minority Collegiate Golf Championship in Port St. Lucie, Fla. Texas-Pan American had a 3-over 291 for a 9-over 585 total and four-stroke lead over Bethune-Cookman in the Division I standings. Alabama State was third, nine shots back. In the womens division, defending champion Bethune-Cookman extended its lead to 13 strokes over Texas-Pan American. Andrea Orozco led the Wildcats with a 69 on the Ryder Course.

Grizzlies take series lead, topple Thunder

By TERESA M. WALKER AP Sports Writer
MEMPHIS, Tenn. Marc Gasol scored 20 points and hit two free throws with 1:03 left to put Memphis ahead to stay, and the Grizzlies held off the Oklahoma City Thunder 87-81 Saturday to take a 2-1 lead in this Western Conference semifinal. Gasol scored 16 in the second half as Memphis remained unbeaten at home in the postseason. The Grizzlies pulled out the win in an ugly performance for both teams following a threeday layoff since Game 2. After struggling at the free throw line in Oklahoma City, the Grizzlies hit all six at the line in the final 1:03 to clinch it. Kevin Durant scored 25 points, but only two in the fourth quarter. A 91 percent free throw shooter in the regular season, Durant missed two with 39.3 seconds left. Tony Allen had his best game in this series, scoring 14 points for Memphis. Jerryd Bayless added 11. Zach Randolph scored only eight points but
had 10 rebounds. The Thunder had their worst scoring and shooting performance this postseason. Reggie Jackson had 16 points for Oklahoma city, and Kevin Martin and Serge Ibaka each added 13. Durant went 3 of 11 from the floor in the second half, and his teammates went a combined 23 of 69 for the game.
Pacers 82, Knicks 71
INDIANAPOLIS Roy Hibbert had 24 points and 12 rebounds and Paul George had 14 points, eight rebounds and eight assist to lead the Pacers past New York in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference semifinals. The Pacers are up 2-1, with Game 4 of the best-of-seven series Tuesday in Indy. Carmelo Anthony scored 21 points to lead the Knicks, who led only once in the game for a total of 76 seconds. New York spent the final 45 minutes trying to play catch-up but never did. Amare Stoudemire looked rusty after returning from a two-month absence, finishing with seven points.
Heats Bosh gets better of duel with Bulls Boozer

By ANDREW SELIGMAN AP Sports Writer
MINNEAPOLIS Like a player forced to watch tape of a turnover on a fast break, James Whitford cringed when he saw the video of his practice interview. Twirling my fingers while Im talking, Whitford said. I was very uncomfortable. Fortunately for the former Arizona assistant coach, it was just a run through. When the time came last month for him to sell himself for real, in front of administrators at Ball State, Whitford was ready. At 41, he became head coach of the Cardinals. For this, Whitford is profusely grateful to an annual seminar intended to prepare prospects for their first head coaching position and to help athletic directors get a feel for who might fit their next opening. The two-day, invitation-only conference is called Villa 7. One of the scheduled sessions is designed like speed dating, with coaches shuffling between administrators to make brief introductions and, ideally, positive impressions. I craved every minute. I wouldve soaked up another 24 hours if I couldve, Whitford said. The coaching carousel in major college basketball has only spun faster in recent years, making the hiring process even more critical for schools, and the jobs much more stressful for coaches. For administrators, theres never a network that cant be broadened. For want-to-be head coaches, theres an endless supply of useful advice to tap. None more valuable, perhaps, than the art of the interview, one commonality between coaching and almost every other occupation in the country. A subgroup of participants is asked to arrive early to Villa 7 for extra training and exposure, and Whitford was included last year. He sat in front of actual athletic directors and pretended to persuade them to hire him. I completely bombed the mock interview, Whitford said. It was a great lesson for me. If youre trying to be a head coach, you dont get that chance very often. Not only did he fidget a bit in his seat, but he also struggled to seem confident without being arrogant. With Arizona and Xavier before that, Whitford was used selling recruits on the university, the basketball program and the head coach, Sean Miller. He wasnt in position to tout his own prowess. It was uncomfortable for me to say, Im the best, Whitford said. Because youre talking about yourself in such a way that can be awkward if it doesnt come off the right way. Thats not the way I was raised, to talk about myself like that. But it was great to hear their feedback and concerns and get a little practice at it. Villa 7, held this week in Minneapolis, took its name from the private luxury suite at the Mirage hotel and casino in Las Vegas where the conference was first conducted in 2004. It was devised by Mike Ellis, now the senior associate athletic director for administration at Minnesota. Ellis, a former assistant coach at Virginia Commonwealth, was an administrator at VCU when then-coach Jeff Capel began to
Former Florida assistant basketball coach Shaka Smart addresses the media during a news conference, as VCU athletic director Norwood Teague, right, looks, after Smart was introduced as the new mens basketball coach at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, Va., in 2009. Smart was a two-time attendee of the Villa 7 program while an assistant at Clemson and then Florida. The relationship he developed then with Teague at the program, was the catalyst for Smarts rise to fame.

be pursued by prominent programs. Athletic director Richard Sander worried about who to hire next. So they came up with the idea of this symposium to make connections, alleviate concerns and simply help each other out for the sake of the sport. A donor with some pull got the group into the suite for the inaugural seminar. Here are 30 ADs. Here are 30 coaches. How are people going to act in this setting? Ellis said. One guy drank too much. A couple sat off by themselves on the side. But what it did was help you identify potential coaches. What weve done is give ourselves the ability to look at a lot more clues. When Capel left for Oklahoma, VCU replaced him with Anthony Grant, a former Florida assistant and Villa 7 participant. Three years later, Grant went to Alabama. Then VCU hired another Villa 7 alumnus, Shaka Smart, who guided the Rams to the Final Four in just his second season. Smart was a two-time attendee, while an assistant at Clemson and then Florida. The relationship he developed then with Norwood Teague, Sanders replacement and now the AD at Minnesota, was a catalyst for Smarts rise to fame. This is for coaches whove worked their butt off and havent had an opportunity, Ellis said. And were trying to help them build an opportunity. Andy Enfield, John Groce and Buzz Williams, whose teams all enjoyed NCAA tournament success this season, are among the 90-plus past Villa 7 participants (mens and womens) whove since been hired as head coaches. And once they get that job, there are challenges anew. So thats another one
of the Villa 7 sessions: preparing for the first 100 days. Youve just got to be yourself, Smart said, recalling the advice he took. You dont want to take someone elses 100 days blueprint and try to apply that to your deal. You dont want to take someone elses personality and try to completely copy that. Each situation is very different. The success of Villa 7 spawned Villa 6, a version mostly for less-experienced assistants at mid-major and low-major schools. Villa 7 has a curriculum specific to womens coaches, too. Lindsey Gottlieb, who took California to the Final Four last month, was a previous participant. This year, the confirmation list included 44 men, 28 women and 57 administrators. The programs growth wouldnt have been possible, Ellis said, without the partnership with Nike. The sports apparel giant, which has contracts with roughly 75 percent of major college basketball programs, splits the logistical costs of the program with the host, which this year is Minnesota. Past sites have included Charlotte, N.C., the VCU campus in Richmond and Nike headquarters in Beaverton, Ore. Participants pay their own travel costs. Were just doing the right thing. Its not about the payback, Eric Lautenbach, the senior director of college basketball sports marketing for Nike. When we wrap the program up and were going to catch our flights and you have one of those assistant coaches come up and say with great sincerity that theyre so touched and appreciative to have been a part of it, thats an unbelievably great feeling.
CHICAGO Welcome to the Eastern Conference semifinals, Chris Bosh and Carlos Boozer. All but absent the first two games, the big men for Miami and Chicago asserted themselves in a big way in Game 3 on Friday night. Bosh scored 20 points and hauled in 19 rebounds to help the Heat beat the Bulls 10494 victory. Boozer wasnt bad, either, with 21 points for Chicago, but it was Miami coming away with a 2-1 lead in the series. A big reason for that was Bosh stepping up on a night when the other Big Three struggled. LeBron James was off target for most of the game before coming on strong down the stretch to finish with 25 points and Dwyane Wade was a nonfactor. Bosh, however, got going early on. He knocked down shots from the baseline and top of the key. He hit a 3-pointer, too. But he was also active on the glass, finishing one rebound shy of the Heats postseason record. It was the sort of performance Miami envisioned seeing on a more regular basis when it formed that superstar triumvirate back in the summer of 2010. I try to move around as much as possible, he said. Dwyane and LeBron, theyre very unselfish basketball players. Theyre going to be making a lot of plays for us and Mario (Chalmers) as well. I try to mix

it up a lot. I try to space. I try to dive. I try to get behind the defense to get easy buckets, but if I move to the open spot, usually they find me. Those are my opportunities to be aggressive. If Im open, Im going to shoot or make the extra pass if need be. Weve been playing together awhile, and seeing the same situations over and over, you can just kind of feel the game and know where to go. That aggression has been questioned at times. He tends to fade at times, blend in rather than assert himself. It was that way in the first two games of this series, when he scored nine and then 13 points, but it was a different story for him on Friday. Same for Boozer. He clearly had his best game of the series and was involved from the start after scoring a total of 14 points in the first two.
ANAHEIM, Calif. A theatrical playoff series gets an appropriately grand finale when Anaheim hosts Detroit in Game 7 on Sunday night. Although the Ducks and Red Wings could be stressed by this test, most are treating it as an opportunity and a reward for nearly two weeks of exhausting work. After all, somebody gets to be the hero. After four overtime games, several clutch goals and plenty of wild momentum swings, the second-seeded Ducks have one last chance to finish off the resilient Red Wings, who have

one final opportunity to nudge past the talented Pacific Division champions. Detroit has stayed in this series with three overtime victories, including Game 6 on Friday night, although Anaheim had to rally late just to force two of those overtimes. Every game has been in the balance in the third period, so both teams know what theyll ald and Grabner gave New York leads in each period. Aucoin had two assists, and Nabokov made 17 saves. Jarome Iginla tied it in the first, and Pascal Dupuis made it 2-2 in the second for Pittsburgh, which got 35 saves from Vokoun. Despite being outplayed for much of the game a 28-13 shot disparity through two periods was built the Penguins

You dream about Game 7, and to be the guy to step up is special. entered the third in a 2-2 tie. Pittsburgh overcame a pair of New York power plays in the second including one for too many men on the ice that had coach Dan Bylsma irate on the bench and got even again when Dupuis scored his fifth of the series with 9:01 remaining. Joe Vitale raced along the right wing boards and flung the puck in front to Dupuis, who redirected it past Nabokov.

Gadowsky said Penn States football stadium would be an ideal place to hold the NHL Winter Classic and pit cross-state rivals like the Penguins and Flyers against one another. I think it would be fantastic, Gadowsky said Thursday. The central location of Penn State to Pittsburgh and Philadelphia makes Beaver Stadium an attractive location, he said. Gadowsky has more immediate concerns, however, as he is ushering Penn State hockey into major-college competition. The Nittany Lions will play 20 Big Ten games this season, and they will also skate in a new area. The Pegula Ice Center is scheduled to open in September, and Penn State will christen the new building with an Oct. 11 game against Army.

Ervin wins chaotic 50 free

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) Anthony Ervin is beyond the comeback stage. Now, hes just trying to be the man to beat in swimmings most chaotic race. The two-time Olympian knocked off an impressive field in the 50-meter freestyle at the Arena Grand Prix in Charlotte, tearing through the one-lap dash with a blistering in-season time of 22.01 seconds Saturday night. He knocked off fellow Olympians Cullen Jones, Tyler McGill, Ricky Berens and Britains Adam Brown.
Did it catch me off guard? Yeah! Ervin said. Trainings been so hard that feeling good and feeling fast has been sparse real, real sparse. Being that I flew in last night, I wasnt expecting to be that fast. Im relieved. It feels good. This definitely gives me a confidence boost. Jones finished third at 22.16, just behind Brazils Marcelo Chierighini at 22.09. McGill was fifth (22.77) and Berens settled for seventh (22.97), both competing in events that arent part of their normal program. thoughts. We knew we had to compete at a certain level and although we didnt get the end result, we did that. Tardifs second goal of the game, the second power play of the second for Providence gave the home club a 3-1 edge. Zatkoff finished with 9 saves in the first while Thiessen was adept at tempering the Bruins offensive efforts in stopping all 16 shots he faced. Brad did a good job, said Hynes. I wouldnt say that the reason we were down was Jeffs fault but I thought our overall game was better after we made the goal change. It was a team effort (the last two periods).

Matt Ross led an otherwise balanced attack with four goals as the Mountaineers won. Eight Dallas players finished with one goal, inclduing Mike Shutlocks first career goal.
Jamie Tardif collected his sixth score of the postseason as the Bruins were working on a 5-on3 advantage at 11:24. Bourque and Carter Camper each offered up helpers to Tardif who evened the score at 1-1 with the positive result. The Bruins first-period offensive outburst prompted Hynes to pull Zatkoff from the net in favor of Brad Thiessen to open the second. Thiessen last saw play in the 3-2, series clinching victory against the Binghamton Senators May 2. WBS edged closer in the latter portion of the second when Morminas original drive from the point ricocheted off Bruins goalie Niklas Svedberg and eventually found its way onto the stick of Brian Gibbons, who took advantage of the opportunity in narrowing the Bruins edge to 4-2. The visitors had seen the clock tick down to 33 seconds remaining on the man advantage before Gibbons produced. For the Boston College product, it was his third score of the postseason. We like where we are game is at, said Hynes in post game

a double, scored on a double play grounder for a 1-0 lead. In the bottom of the second SWB sent eight batters to the plate and scored two more on run-scoring singles by Bobby Wilson and Granderson to push the lead to 3-0. Granderson had two hits in four trips to the plate, but was also the only batter to strikeout against Braves starter Omar Poveda fanning twice. Legs wise I felt good and thats the big thing right now just getting the legs back, said
Granderson, who was the designated hitter but is expected to play the outfield the last two games of the series before possibly being activated by New York on Tuesday. The main thing is Im not really worried about the results Im just looking to execute the plan and the approach and execute that whatever it may be and were getting there. The last two at bats he made some adjustments and we struggled with that, but thats a part of baseball. Chien-Ming Wang, who started for SWB was cruising along only allowing two baserunners until running into trouble in the fourth. He gave up three straight Vanderkaay, lap for lap. When the kids got to race against him at the end of the practicing, especially the younger kids, they really enjoyed that, said Romayne Mosier, head coach of the Dallas Mountaineers swim team, on hand for the day. Though I have to admit, whats really exciting for me is seeing the way the older kids listened to him and accepted the techniques hes explaining to them and that you need them to work at. Thats absolutely going to make some things better for the team when practice rolls around. For the swimmers in attendance looking for lessons about an athlete coming from a humble start as a competitor who eventually became a cham-
hits to Ernesto Mejia (double), Brandon Boggs (single) and Todd Cunningham (single) to start the frame. Cunninghams single scored Mejia. Wang did get the next three batters out to minimize the damage, but Boggs came home on a groundout to trim the SWB lead to 3-2. Two innings later, Mejia got to Wang again hitting the first pitch he saw from Wang in the top of the sixth over the video wall in right field for his International League-leading ninth home run this season to tie the game at 3-3. Again Wang rebounded from that rough patch to retire eight of the last 10 batters he faced. pion, they definitely had a fine teacher. When I was younger the biggest thing for me was just to keep working at the sport, said Vanderkaay. I knew that the hard work would come back to me and help set me apart. I quickly noticed that the amount of effort and focus I put in was directly related to the success I put out. Vanderkayy began swimming at a young age and by his own admission was not a top competitor until later in high school. In his senior year of high school, he broke the Michigan state record in the 500-meter freestyle before moving on to swim for the Michigan Wolverines and eventually the national team. While at Michigan,
He also managed to keep his pitch-count low only throwing 82 pitches through seven innings getting Braves batters to roll over into 18 groundouts on the night as his sinker was working perfectly. By doing that, he achieved the high-water mark for a RailRider pitcher this season going 7 2/3 innings. He threw 101 pitches with 62 of them strikes and walked just one. Granderson wasnt the only Major League all-star at PNC Field. Jason Heyward, Atlantas all-star outfielder on a rehab assignment with Gwinnett, went 1-for-3 and was hit by a pitch. Vanderkaay earned his first gold medal as a member of the winning 800 freestyle relay team at the 2004 Olympics. From that point until the recent end of his competitive career, Vanderkaay added another gold medal in the same event to go with a bronze medal in the 200 freestyle at the 2008 games and a bronze in the 400 freestyle in the 2012 Olympics. I hope the kids on hand gather some inspiration from my story, that an everyday guy like myself can make it to the Olympics, said Vanderkaay. I think it helps them to realize that everyone they see on TV started off in the sport of swimming the way they did. It helps to give them a perspective on working hard in the sport.
CHAMP
young kids came in and did a good job of soaking up the information, even though its a lot. I helped the older kids that came in fine tune the basics they already have down and the technical part of it all that will help them get better. And everybodys been having fun today, which makes it all worthwhile. Throughout the day, swimmers had a chance to hop in the pool with Vanderkaay and practice the drills he was there to teach and even try them out against some experienced competition. At the end of the training, all were invited to take on
rived from south Georgia, in the fall semester. For the spring semester, Lewis lived with Ferguson, who grew up even farther away in Bakersfield, Calif. But the personalities of the two quarterbacks werent as similar as their stats from spring ball. Where Bench was naturally talkative and outgoing, Ferguson took some time to open up. When he came in, he didnt really talk too much, Lewis said. He was just trying to get comfortable with everything. Hes far from home. I did everything I could to make him feel welcome and feel good about where hes at. I think we did a good job with it. OBrien agrees. The second-year coach reiterated this week that Ferguson has adapted as well as could be expected for someone who accepted a late scholarship offer without having set foot in Happy Valley. When youre 19 years old and youve never seen Penn State before, and you decide to throw your stuff in a suitcase and you decide to come out to Penn State, that takes something, OBrien said. Thats what Tyler did. So when he first got to Penn State, you go from College of the Sequoias to Beaver Stadium. Most of us probably would be a bit unnerved by that. I think he was quiet when he first got here. With knowledge comes power, so he became more familiar with what we were doing, more familiar with the school. And I think hes a lot more comfortable now than he was four months ago. Evidently so. Ferguson was settled well enough that OBrien picked him to get more reps with the first-team offense this summer. That led to Benchs decision to transfer. Aside from improving in practices, Lewis said he noticed a change in Ferguson off the field by semesters end. Yeah, definitely. He started talking, he started hanging out with guys, Lewis said. We went out to eat a couple times. We just want to have a good bond with each other. With Benchs departure, Ferguson has a slight edge to be
the man under center when the Lions open against Syracuse on Aug. 31. As players gradually leave home to return to State College, Ferguson will be able to informally get together with teammates and work on routes and timing in OBriens complex offense. Hackenberg will arrive at the end of June. As of right now, Tylers the only one here right now, Lewis said. So we do everything we can with him. When Christian comes in, theyll both be battling for the spot, and thats the decision that Coach OBrien will make. OBrien said this week on his Coaches Caravan tour that he would like to decide on a starting quarterback after about two weeks of camp. That would allow either Ferguson or Hackenberg to have another two weeks getting the bulk of the work with the first-team offense to better prepare for the opener. If Ferguson does win the job, it would continue a stunning rise on Penn States radar. Ferguson, of course, was well known to the coaching staff when they scoured the JUCO ranks last fall after Paul Jones left the team. But the scholarship offer for that spot originally went to Jake Waters of Iowa Western, who ultimately picked Kansas State over the Lions in December. The very next day, that offer then went to Ferguson, who had been set to sign with Houston. That plan changed with a phone call from Penn State. It was already going to be difficult for Ferguson to move his life to the other end of the country and integrate there as a player, as a student and as a person. But he also had the added burden of integrating with a team that had developed an exceptional bond in the past yearplus, keeping the program alive through scandal and sanctions. Yeah, thats tough, OBrien said. But our team thats one thing thats interesting about our team as we sit here right now I dont think our team is real cliquey. I think our team is a team right now, which is good. Now I dont know if that will translate to a bunch of wins. Im just saying that I like the feeling of our team right now, the chemistry of our team. I think they accepted (Tyler) very well.

Charlotte Brown, 15, cleared three heights but didnt medal at the state championships.
By JIM VERTUNO AP Sports Writer
Legally blind pole vaulter competes at Texas meet
Van Garderen highlights Tour of California field

AUSTIN, Texas A legally blind 15-year-old pole vaulter cleared three heights at the Texas state championship but failed to win a medal. Charlotte Brown of rural Emory Rains High School was one of the top qualifiers in girls Class 3A with Brown a height of 11 feet, 6 inches. Her best vault of Saturdays final was 10-6 and she missed on three chances at 11-0 before leaving the track to a standing ovation from several hundred people watching her event. Brown was born with normal vision but developed problems while an infant. She has no depth perception, sees no color and cannot distinguish shapes. Her range of vision is similar to looking through a tiny straw. She reads Braille and will get a seeing eye dog next month. Also Saturday, 17-year-old legally blind vaulter Aria Ottmueller was scheduled to compete in the Arizona state meet. Brown is able to vault by using intense concentration on her approach to the pit, counting her steps and listening to coach Derek Smith yell when he tells her to launch. She places an 80foot strip of dark, artificial turf next to the running lane to create a light/dark contrast she can follow to keep her running in a straight line. Brown easily cleared her first three jumps at 9-6, 10-0 and 106. The problems began when she clipped the bar with her left elbow on her first attempt at 110. After missing her next two jumps, Brown ultimately finished eighth among nine competitors. The winning height was 12-9 by meet favorite Kally Long of Wimberley, last years silver medalist. After bowing out, Brown slightly slumped her shoulders and got a hug from Smith, who had been allowed to stand to the lane to bark out the number of Browns steps as she approached each jump. Several of her competitors shook her hand or hugged her as she left the track. Brown shrugged off the defeat as simply not being at her best. Im still happy because theres a couple of hundred kids who didnt get to be here. Its a privilege to even get to come. Im one of the top nine in the state, so thats motivation to come back here and win state, Brown said. Brown, whose story attracted national attention in the days before the meet, said she woke up Saturday excited about the meet but wasnt nervous. Although she really couldnt see the crowd of more than 10,000 at the stadium, she could hear them as fans cheered races going on just a few yards away. If I can inspire people by doing what I think is easy, thats awesome, she said.
Shavertown resident Sean Robbins gives a talk about triathlete training, nutrition, competing and recovery at Sicklers Bike and Sport Shop in Exeter on Monday evening.
Learning a thing or two about triathlons

I admit the thought of practicing eating and drinking never occurred to me. Even on the hottest of days and my longest rides, those two things always kind of take care of themselves. But if you want to be a serious triathlete, pencil some time in to practice you eating and drinking because its important. That was one of the many bits of advice area triathlete Sean Robbins had for the dozen or so people that turned out to hear him speak at Sicklers in Exeter on Monday. You need to practice eating and drinking at regular intervals, Robbins said. Robbins added that on longer triathlons he follows a strict schedule, taking on fluids or eating every half hour. Its important because if you wait until you are thirsty, its too late, he said. You are already behind the curve. Robbins should know. The Back Mountain resident has been competing in triathlons for nearly 20 years and has a list of impressive results. He is a two-time winner of the Wilkes-Barre Triathlon and has competed in 13 Ironman events during his career. He said that its not only important to know when to eat and drink, its equally important to know what to eat and drink during an event. And what works for one triathlete wont work for all. Find something youre comfortable with and that works for you, Robbins advised. Sports drinks and energy gels and bars are interchange-

able, and the middle of a triathlon isnt the best time to find out that one doesnt agree with you. Nutrition wasnt the only subject Robbins discussed. He talked about the importance of starting training in the winter and fall, and mapping out a schedule. Robbins follows a schedule of working out twice a day, six or seven days a week. It takes 10-12 weeks minimum, Robbins said of the building up a fitness base during the winter. But Robbins is a top competitor. Not everyone trying to complete a triathlon needs to follow his retinue. Competing is a relative term, Robbins said. Set goals ahead of time and tailor your training base on those goals. The same goes for race day. Dont get caught up on what others are doing, he said. Know what your limitations are, know what your body is going to do and race to those conditions. Race your own race. Robbins had one final piece of advice for those considering their first triathlon this summer. Dont be afraid to do it, Robbins said. Try it. Most of the time I hear people say they are affraid of the swim. I just jumped in the lake for my first (triathlon). I didnt know what I was doing. He added there is still plenty of time to get ready for the Wilkes-Barre Triathlon, scheduled for Aug. 18. Just be sure to spend some of time practicing eating and drinking.
While Robbins was talking about what goes into to preparing for a triathlon, he also mentioned that athletes can expect a sterner test this August at the Wilkes-Barre Triathlon. Robbins said that the bike route has been changed. More hills, less time for recovery. Its going to be more challenging, especially heading into that run, the Back Mountain resident said. The changes werent made to make the race more difficult, however. According to the WilkesBarre triathlon website, the change was made because the old course used for more than 20 years was becoming unsafe. Population growth on Lower Demunds Road and increased traffic from the various new industries that use PA Route 309 are to blame. Maps are available on the triathlons website, wilkesbarretriathlon.com.
Dowsett wins Giro time trial; Nibali captures overall lead

Joe Soprano is a page designed for a The Times Leader and an avid cyclist. His Cycling Scene column appears every other Sunday.
SALTARA, Italy Alex Dowsett won the individual time trial in the eighth stage of the Giro dItalia on Saturday after favorite Bradley Wiggins was slowed by a puncture and only managed second. Vincenzo Nibali, Wiggins main rival for the title, took the overall lead from Benat Intxausti after finishing fourth. I had a really good time trial, Nibali said. It seemed designed for me, with so many curves and several ups and downs. I kept up the pace with all my strength, in view of the final climb and in the end I did it. Dowsett won his first Grand Tour stage by finishing the hilly 34.05-mile route from Gabicce Mare to Saltara in 1 hour, 16 minutes, 27 seconds, beating fellow Briton Wiggins by 10 seconds. Tanel Kangert of Estonia was third. It will take a bit of time before I realized what I have done,
I still cant believe myself, Dowsett said. It was quite a harder TT than I expected, without a doubt the hardest in my life. Nibali is nearly half a minute in front of second-place Cadel Evans of Australia. Wiggins moved up to fourth in the overall standings but is still 1:16 behind the Italian. Wiggins lost more than a minute to the other contenders Friday after crashing. The Team Sky rider appeared cautious when descending corners and had to change bikes early on due to a flat tire, losing precious seconds. The Tour de France champion won gold in the in the time trial at the London Olympics, and his impressive climb up the steep ramp Saturday to the finish line reduced his deficit to Dowsett from just under a minute to only 10 seconds. By contrast, Nibali enjoyed a promising start but slowed on the second half of the course.

Hall of Fame Pittsburgh DB Jack Butler dies at 85
Giants QB Nassib shows poise in workouts

By TOM CANAVAN AP Sports Writer
PITTSBURGH Pittsburgh Steelers Hall of Fame defensive back Jack Butler died Saturday morning following a lengthy battle with a staph infection. He was 85. Butlers son John said his fathers heart stopped suddenly. Butler had been hospitalized for several months while dealing with a staph infection that had plagued him off and on since he retired in 1959. A Pittsburgh native, Butler made the Steelers as an undrafted rookie free agent out of St. Bonaventure in 1951. He developed into one of the top defensive backs of his era. He played nine seasons with the Steelers, collecting 52 interceptions. He made the Pro Bowl four times and was named to the All-NFL first team three times. Butler was elected to the Hall of Fame by the senior committee in 2012.

WESTERVILLE, Ohio George Sauer, a wide receiver on the New York Jets only Super Bowl championship team, has died. He was 69. The Moreland Funeral Home in Westerville said he died Tuesday after a long struggle with Alzheimers disease. Sauer played a key role in the Jets 16-7 win over the Baltimore Colts in the 1969 Super Bowl. He caught eight passes from Joe Namath that day in one of the greatest upsets in pro football history. He played for the Jets in the AFL and then the NFL from 1965-70. He was chosen to four all-star teams and was a two-time All-Pro. In 84 games, he caught 309 passes for 4,965 yards and 28 touchdowns.
Ex-WR George Sauer dies at 69
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. Ryan Nassib hasnt been anywhere close to perfect in his first few days on the field as the New York Giants quarterback of the future. The fourth-round draft pick from Syracuse came up horribly short on a long go pattern during Fridays start to the two-day minicamp for rookies and free agents. He later lacked touch on a pass over the middle and then threw an interception. First-day jitters is the best way to describe it. They were gone Saturday when Nassib showed why the Giants made a trade to move up six spots to grab a potential successor to Eli Manning. Nassib hit a long pass to Brandon Collins, made a couple of other perfect throws and showed good command in running an offense that hes still learning. Yeah. I definitely felt a little bit more comfortable as these practices have been going on, Nassib said Saturday after the morning workout. Im
starting to get the terminology down. Im sure its nowhere near as much as what the whole playbook is. Offensive coordinator Kevin Gilbride was impressed how well Nassib did on Friday in the huddle. First day out he did a pretty good job of mastering just the nomenclature, the terminology, Gilbride said. He didnt seem overly confused by what were trying to do. Theres so much thinking going on. Its hard to execute at a level that Im sure were going to see down the road, but really for the first day, he did pretty good. The 23-year-old Nassib has an uncertain immediate future with the Giants. He clearly is someone management feels has a chance to be the quarterback of the future, but the reality remains that Manning is in his prime and he doesnt miss any snaps. The two-time Super Bowl MVP has started 135 straight regular-season games and 11 consecutive postseason contests. The last player to start for New York other than Manning was Kurt Warner in 2004. Nassib, who will battle veteran Da-
vid Carr for the No. 2 job, has not spoken with the coaches about either his role or what their expectations are. When he hasnt been on the field the past two days, he has worked out in the weight room, studied his playbook and gone to meetings.

The two spoke by telephone after the draft, Nassib said, who got a couple of laughs telling the story. When the call came through, he did not recognize the number. Normally, he doesnt answer those type of calls, but since the number had a New Jersey area code and came after the draft, he answered. He just gave me the heads up about some things and just getting to know each other a little bit and Im really looking forward to working with him, Nassib said. In a way, the Giants made Nassib comfortable for the minicamp bringing in three other Syracuse players, of-

RB Randle happy despite sliding down in draft
COWBOYS
IRVING, Texas Joseph Randle had to wait 151 picks to hear his name during the NFL draft. The former Oklahoma State running back has almost no chance to start for the Dallas Cowboys because of DeMarco Murray, the Oklahoma Sooner in front of him on the depth chart. So maybe he regrets bypassing his final college season to trade one set of Cowboys for another. Or maybe not. Randle says he isnt sure he could be in a better situation, so maybe the wait was worth it. The fifth-round pick says that because the Cowboys are believers in the NFL as a twoback league. Thats partly because Murray has missed nine games with injuries since becoming the starter midseason in 2011.

Rookie DTs have made impression on Rivera

CHARLOTTE, N.C. Ron Rivera didnt anticipate the Carolina Panthers would use their first two draft picks on defensive tackles. Then again, he didnt expect Purdues Kawann Short would be there in the middle of the second round. Rivera says the Panthers had a first-round grade on Short, so when he fell to the 44th spot overall they wasted no time turning in their pick even after taking fellow defensive tackle Star Lotulelei from Utah in round one. Rivera called Short a value pick. After watching Short perform the first two days at rookie minicamp, Rivera is more convinced than ever that Panthers general manager Dave Gettleman made the right choice doubling down on tackles last month. He said Short and Lotulelei can be difference makers when it comes to providing an inside pass rush. Very much so, Rivera said. The things theyre doing are what we need from that position. Im pretty excited about that. Star has been what we thought he was. There is some stuff I really like about (Short), especially his first step movement and how quickly he gets into his pass rush mode. Thats really big for us. Rivera can only hope drafting defensive tackles with back-to-back picks works out better than it did two years ago when he first came on board as coach. Carolina selected Cam Newton with the No. 1 overall pick in 2011 before adding defensive tackles Terrell McClain and Sione Fua with a pair of third round selections. The results werent good. McClain started 12 games as a rookie but fizzled out and was cut after just one season. Likewise, Fua started 11 games as a rookie but his production has tailed off. He started one game last season and has just 22 tackles in two years. With Lotulelei and Short expected to battle for the starting spot at defensive tackle alongside veteran Dwan Edwards, Fua now finds himself fighting for a spot on the 53-man roster. It just happened to fall that way, Rivera said. There was Short right there in the second round and youre sitting there going, wow, now thats a real value pick. Short said he and Lotulelei have already talked about working together and becoming the cornerstones of the teams defensive line for years to come. We are kind of the future here and its time to live up to those expectations, said the 6-foot-3, 310-pound Short.

Head coach Ryan increasing his role in defense again
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. Rex Ryan is going back to his roots. The New York Jets coach says Saturday that he will control the play-calling on defense, as he did during his first two seasons with the team. Ryan, a defensive coordinator in Baltimore before being hired as a head coach in New York, left most of those duties to Mike Pettine the last two years. Ryan wanted to get more involved in the offense and be more the head coach role last season, but wants to go back to do what I do, which is teach and coach primarily on defense. Dennis Thurman replaced Pettine as the teams defensive coordinator when Pettine took the same role with Buffalo this offseason. Ryan says his increased role on defense is not a reflection on Thurman.

Rookie cornerback McGee out to make an impression
Kickalicious trying to adjust

By NOAH TRISTER AP Sports Writer
ST. LOUIS About the only surprise St. Louis Rams rookie Brandon McGee experienced since finishing his college career at Miami came during the three-day NFL draft. The cornerback heard from enough people he should expect to be taken on the second day, in either the second or third rounds. After no team selected him, McGee blew off some steam on the fields he grew up playing. It was like adding fuel to the fire, honestly, he said Saturday, the final day of the teams rookie minicamp. I actually grabbed my cleats and went to the field. I was kind of frustrated with everything and just went and worked out. It kind of just gave me the opportunity to vent. But the Rams called me the very next day and its a great situation. Im happy to be a Ram. McGee, selected in the fifth round by St. Louis, joined the Rams other draft choices, their rookie free-agent signees and 27 tryout players at the two-day rookie minicamp at the teams practice facility. -- The Associated Press
ALLEN PARK, Mich. The scouting report on Havard Rugland is certainly an odd one. Hes good at kicking the ball into cars that are driving down the road boats and stuff like that, Detroit Lions coach Jim Schwartz said. But I dont think you get any more points for doing that. Weve got to kick it between the goalposts. Ruglands story is unlike that of any other player at rookie minicamp. The Norwegian kicker became an Internet sensation after producing video footage of all sorts of quirky trick shots. Rugland back-heels the ball nonchalantly into a trash can and kicks it to somebody on a boat on a lake. In one goofy stunt, he lines up for what looks like a chip-shot field goal only hes not trying to split the uprights. Instead, his kick sails gently through a basketball hoop. I kept hitting the rim, and I wanted it to go straight in, Rugland said. Thats a lot of work. Now Rugland faces the more mundane challenge of mastering the fundamentals as an NFL kicker. The
Lions signed him last month and are giving him a chance to make the team. Im really serious about it. Im doing my best to get better every day, he said. I think theres a lot of people wanting a spot on an NFL team, so you have to perform good. They wouldnt sign me if they didnt see something, like talent or potential. Ruglands first name is pronounced HO-var, although he was given the nickname Kickalicious by a cousin. A longtime soccer player, he says he knows the basics of American football, but not all the rules. The Lions need a kicker after Jason Hansons retirement. They signed Rugland and David Akers a couple days apart in April, and now they want to see how quickly the 28-yearold Rugland can adjust to an NFL kickers routine. Whether hes working on the timing of the snap and hold or just getting used to wearing a helmet, this is still a fairly new experience for him. Rugland had a tryout with the New York Jets in December, and since then hes worked with former NFL kicker Michael Husted. When the
Lions brought him in for a workout, he impressed them enough that they were willing to sign him. As for Ruglands trickery on video, Schwartz is skeptical. But he realizes Rugland has talent. You just wonder, how many times did he have to kick it to the trash can before he made it? No matter how much everybody thinks those basketball shots, they might sit there for three days trying to make one, Schwartz said. You could tell on that video he had leg strength and he could control the football, and those were important things. After he worked out here, we had a feel for his leg strength on kickoffs and his accuracy, and we liked what we saw, and we thought we could work with him. Rugland says the basketball hoop shot may have taken 40 tries to get right. It remains to be seen whether his skills will translate to an NFL career. He said this week was the first time hed worn a football helmet. From soccer, your head pretty often follows the football, he said. Im trying to keep my head down, so it almost helps me out a little bit.

The sound of success
NORTHUMBERLAND COUNTY Lynn Appelman and Colleen DeLong stood over a field of switchgrass and watched a flurry of action. Before them, dozens of wild male pheasants highlighted with bright red cheeks and long tails flapped and flew in and out of the switchgrass, chasing each other as they attempted to establish crowing territories for the spring mating season. But Appelman, president of the Central Susquehanna Chapter of Pheasants Forever, and DeLong, a wildlife biologist with the Pennsylvania Game Commission, did more than watch. They also listened. From April 20 to May 24, Appelman and DeLong, along with other aides and volunteers, traverse the farmlands of Columbia, Montour and Northumberland counties listening for the cackling of male pheasants. The crowing surveys are conducted in the Central Susquehanna Wild Pheasant Recovery Area and the work indicates the density of male pheasants in the area. The results of the crowing survey are coupled with the findings of flushing surveys that are conducted in the winter. Putting both surveys together gives us the hen densities, which is the ultimate measure of the wild pheasant program, DeLong said. Judging by the symphony of cackles that reverberated across the hills of switchgrass and cropland last Friday, things are looking good in the Central Susquehanna WPRA. On Appelmans route, for example, he spends several mornings each week driving a 9-mile stretch of country road stopping at 10 locations to listen for roosters. So far this year Appelman has heard more than 140 male pheasants along the route, more than double the previous high of 55 set last year. On that particular route, its safe to assume the numbers went up, he said. An

easy winter is the biggest reason. The crowing survey is broken into four parts. The roadside routes, which Appelman drives, calls for one stop every mile to listen for three minutes before moving on. To avoid missing areas that hold wild pheasants but arent accessible by road, the biologists also conduct random point surveys over the entire WPRA. DeLong said the PGC hired nine seasonal biologists for the job, which entails hiking out to randomly selected locations and listening for pheasants. The detection survey involves walking a distance away from a cackling pheasant until it is no longer audible. This survey identifies how far out a pheasant can be heard and how often it crows in a three minute period. In the hilly farmlands of the Central Susquehanna WPRA, DeLong said a pheas-
ant cackle can typically be heard up to a quarter-mile away. Although the final results wont be calculated until later this summer, DeLong is encouraged with the early returns. Lynn is getting birds more consistently at every stop. We didnt have that years ago, she said. The Wild Pheasant Recovery Program began seven years ago when, for the first three years, the PGC transported wild pheasants from western states and released them in areas with suitable habitat. Pheasants Forever also aided the effort in several ways, including planting fields of switchgrass and other species to provide pheasants with food and nesting cover. There are four WPRAs in the state and they are all closed to pheasant hunting

Pennsylvanias only wild feline one that is often mistaken for
a mountain lion, has become prevalent throughout the state, as evident by the pair of bobcats (left) photographed in March in Lemon Township, Wyoming County. The other photo, captured by John Demchak of Larksville, shows a hefty bobcat honing its claws on a tree. Note the stubby tails and black tufts on the ears both good ways to tell a bobcat apart from the much larger mountain lion. Demchak used a trail camera to capture his photo, taken last October outside of Meshoppen.
t first I thought it was someones overgrown chihuahua on the loose. Earlier this week, I watched a tiny creature jump onto a Dorrance Township backroad and carelessly amble toward my truck as I slowed down. As it came closer, it quickly became apparent that the animal was not a dog but a newborn whitetail fawn, spots and all. I stopped and watched as the fawn noticed my vehicle and instantly became nervous. On wobbly legs, it maneuvered itself across the road toward an embankment on the other side. This is going to be trouble, I thought. But with surprisingly agility, the fawn jumped over the embankment and landed on all four legs before darting into the woods to an awaiting mother. I appreciated the encounter my first fawn sighting of the year and also wondered about how vulnerable the tiny deer was as it tried to gain its footing on the road. With ease, I couldve scooped the fawn up and taken it home. Id never consider doing such a thing, however. Not only would it be illegal, but unnecessary as well. Still, the encounter proved to be a good example of just how tempting, and easy, it is to some people to pick up newborn fawns and take them home. Some people do it thinking it would be neat to have a pet fawn, while others believe they are doing the animal a favor since the mother isnt visible. In most cases, such as this one, the adult female deer is nearby waiting for its fawn. I knew this was the case with the fawn that I saw considering how it made a beeline into the woods like it knew where to go. Theres no need to interfere. Each year during fawning season which typically runs from early May into June, the Pennsylvania Game Commissions Northeast Region Office receives dozens of calls regarding alleged abandoned fawns. The calls peak around Memorial Day weekend the height of fawning season. PGC spokesman Bill Williams said its common to come across a fawn without the adult doe nearby, but that doesnt always mean theres a problem. If they dont see the doe right with the fawn, they think theres something wrong, Williams said. The best thing to do is let it be. The doe is usually nearby. The small fawn I spotted on the roadway several days ago also served as an example of just how fragile and vulnerable a young deer can be during its first days of life. It wouldnt take much effort for a coyote, black bear or even a pet dog to bring down a newborn fawn. And predators arent the only threat. Sometimes, nature itself is a danger as well. Williams said a fawn was brought to the region office in Dallas on Thursday. The fawn was dead, he said, and the person who brought it in said it drowned in a stream. The doe crossed the stream, and the fawn was in the water struggling, Williams said. He tried to rescue it. Sure, the dangers are numerous and significant, but newborn fawns have a couple of defense mechanisms. The white spots on their coat allow them to blend in with their surroundings as they lie motionless to avoid detection. A fawn does produce scent, but it is minimal which further helps avoid detection. Perhaps the best defense mechanism of a newborn fawn is it grows up fast. In a few days, a fawn transforms from a creature with wobbly legs to one that can dart through the woods with speed and agility. Sure, newborn fawns are fragile and vulnerable, but theyre not helpless.

Show pits man against Alaska

By MARK THIESSEN Associated Press
ANCHORAGE, Alaska Dallas Seavey knows what its like to mush across the wilds of Alaska. Now it remains to be seen how he survives being dropped off in the middle of that wilderness and navigates his way out without the help of a dog team. Seavey, 26, who became the youngest Iditarod champion ever when he won the 1,000-mile sled dog race across Alaska last year, is among eight mushers or outdoor adventurers featured in the latest reality show set in Alaska. Ultimate Survival Alaska premieres Sunday (10 p.m. EST) on the National Geographic Channel. We took eight of the toughest outdoorsmen in Alaska and actually did something that was true to the nature of National Geographic, Seavey said. Anybody who appreciates the outdoors is going to enjoy the show. In each episode, the eight participants are taken by plane or helicopter to a different part of Alaska. They must find their way to a pre-arranged landing zone within three days, fighting the harshest elements the state puts in their way, from bears, mountains and raging rivers to guiding their way along a glacier. Spoiler alert: Its not easy. In the first episode, titled Arctic Hell, the men are dropped off in the Brooks Range, in northern Alaska above the Arctic Circle, and must make their way almost 50 miles on foot to Takahula Lake. The men break off into three teams, with brothers Dallas and Tyrell Seavey choosing to take a barren ridgeline to the lake. Mountain guide Willi Prittie, musher Brent Sass and explorer Tyler Johnson decide to travel the high mountain route only to find wolves blocking part of their path. Mountain guide Marty Raney and his son, survival expert Matt, along with wilderness guide Austin Manelick choose the most direct route, through a river valley, but have to contend with the swift-moving river and swamps.

Ultimate Survival Alaska premieres Sunday on NatGeoTV.
All eight outdoorsmen are expected to live off the land for any food beyond the two pounds of rice and beans they carry. Manelick, 24, supplemented his diet by eating a live wood frog. I wish I could find some more, he said, and so might viewers after his next culinary choice snarfing down cranberries he picked out of bear scat. A little bit tart, he says. Future episodes will have the men competing in two teams and building rafts to take down the mighty Yukon River, the nations third longest river. Another episode has the men rappelling down a cliff on a summit in the snow-capped Tordrillo Mountains, then traveling eight miles over the Triumvirate Glacier. The series was filmed over two and a half months last fall in 10 locations in the vast state. For Tyrell Seavey, 28, the series was
a chance for him to reconnect with his younger brother. A decade ago, they dreamed of doing things like this but couldnt because they had to spend two- to three hours a day cleaning up after the dogs at their home in Seward, Alaska. Their father, Mitch Seavey, won the Iditarod in 2004 and this year became the sports oldest champion at the age of 53. As Alaskans, we sure talk about doing all this stuff, but who does all these things, visits all these places? Tyrell Seavey said. Both Dallas Seavey and Sass, a Minnesota native who was the Iditarod rookie of the year in 2012, said their experiences from the race helped prepare them for the survival challenge. The sleep deprivation, pain tolerance we endure and the constant problem solving we do during the race was a great prep for the show, Sass said in an email to The Associated Press.

while the studies continue. The goal is to eventually open the areas up to hunting so hunters can once again pursue wild pheasants. When that will happen, however, isnt known. The PGC board granted a one-year extension for the Central Susquehanna WPRA, giving biologists more time to monitor populations and collect data before considering whether or not to allow hunting on a limited basis. Appelman said its best to wait too long than open the area up too soon. When they reopen this area, if they have small numbers of birds people will be disappointed, he said. There are high numbers of birds, but theyre localized in pockets and a lot are on private ground. Open it early before the numbers can disperse into otherar-

REEL OPPORTUNITY
Regal to let deaf moviegoers see what theyve been missing
By RICHARd VERRIER / Los Angeles Times
aymond Smith jr. has been trying for nearly two decades to make the movie industry listen to the needs of the deaf and hard of hearing. This month, the senior executive at Regal entertainment Group will come closer to his goal. His company, the nations largest theater chain, will have nearly 6,000 theater screens equipped with closed-captioning glasses that could transform the theatrical experience for millions of deaf and hard-of-hearing patrons who have shunned going to the cinema because previous aids were too clunky or embarrassing to use.
immediate feedback. until now, movie options for the deaf and hearing impaired have been limited. Initially, studios released few movies with captions. exhibitors screened them infrequently, or at odd hours. When cinemas introduced closed-caption devices mounted in seats, many users found them clunky, conspicuous or incompatible with their hearing aids. The new Sony glasses which cost theater owners $1,750 (including a receiver and transmitter) but are free to customers dont have such problems, advocates say. They dont stand out or make you look different, and people dont have to dip their heads to look at a screen and miss whats going on, said nanci Linke-ellis, a partner in Captionsh, a

Regla Cinemas in Hazle Township and Dickson City already have the devices available, according to employees at each location. The knoxville, Tenn., chain has invested more than $10 million in the glasses, which were developed by Sony electronics Inc. Resembling thick sunglasses, the device uses holographic technology to project closedcaption text that appears inside the lenses, synchronized with the dialogue on the screen. The system also includes headphones connected to a wireless receiver, with separate audio channels, which play dialogue or allow visually impaired users to listen to a narration track of the lm. for Smith, the investment is the culmination of a personal journey.

Bionic eye maker has vision of the future

By Ronald d. White Los Angeles Times
LOS ANGELES Robert Greenberg got tired of hearing from senior engineers that it wasnt possible to build his product idea: a bionic eye that gives sight to the blind. A lot of the folks straight out of school didnt know any better, so I hired them instead, quipped Greenberg, chief executive of Second Sight Medical Products Inc., a Sylmar, Calif., biotech company. They didnt know how hard it was going to be, that it was impossible. And so they tried. Greenberg can laugh now that he once thought developing the device would take a year and $1 million. Some 20 years and $200 million later, the rst bionic eye has helped more than 20 European patients regain some of their sight. Called the Argus II Retinal Prosthesis System, the device recently was approved by the Food and Drug Administration. Second Sight, which has 100 employees, is allowed to sell the bionic eye system to patients in the U.S. with advanced retinitis pigmentosa, a degenerative eye disease that can cause blindness. We are a far cry from restoring 20/20 vision, said Brian V. Mech, Second Sights vice president of business development, who holds a doctorate in materials science and an MBA from the UCLA Anderson School of Management. We are taking blind people back up to low vision, and that is pretty signicant. Mech likes to show videos of oncesightless patients who, after receiving the retinal prosthesis, are able to follow a person walking down the street and discern a street curb without using their canes. Until our product, these patients had no other option to obtain the ability to see, Mech said of the $100,000 device, part of which rests on a pair of Oakley Inc. sunglass frames. The cost to European patients has been paid by insurance companies in most cases. Palo Alto attorney Dean Lloyd, who lost his vision 17 years ago, got the bionic eye system as part of the U.S. testing process. It allows him to see boundaries and borders, not images but has had a profound effect on his life. Lloyd cites an incident before he received the eye system that still rankles.
Prototypes of the Arguss II Retinal Prosthesis manufactured at Second Sight Medical Products in Sylmar, Calif. The device is made up of a chip in the eye and special set of glasses that translate visual information to the brain.
In the middle of a courtroom trial, an opposing attorney said Lloyd didnt stand a chance with his case because he couldnt even keep his socks straight: Lloyd had mixed up his black, courtroom socks with his white athletic ones. What did I do after the surgical procedure that I hadnt been able to do? Lloyd said. I went home and sorted all of my socks. The story of how the bionic eye came to be made in Sylmar underscores the states long record of medical device advances and involves top university researchers who were brought to Southern California to work on the project. Greenberg likened the degree of difculty to shrinking a television set to the size of a pea, then throwing it into the ocean and expecting it to work. For Greenberg, it began in the early 1990s when he was a doctoral candidate in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore. Some of the rst work was being done there, testing patients who had lost their vision because of retinitis pigmentosa, to see if electrically stimulating their retinas would produce results. It did. Using one electrode, the patient saw one spot of light, Greenberg said. Second electrode, and the patient was seeing two spots of light. During that experiment, I was hooked. Greenberg said he thought: This is just engineering. Put more spots and you could make more pixels, like lights on a scoreboard or pixels on your computer monitor. You could see images. There was a breakthrough of another sort a few years later, in Washington. There, Greenberg was working as a

medical ofcer and a lead reviewer for the FDAs Ofce of Device Evaluation when he met entrepreneur Alfred E. Mann. Mann had already established himself as a medical device developer through Mannkind Corp. and several other Southern California companies. During the 1980s, the self-made billionaire founded Pacesetter Systems, which made cardiac pacemakers. From there, he moved on to insulin pumps and related equipment. Another Mann-funded company, Advanced Bionics Corp., took on cochlear implants, which could restore hearing to the deaf. It was the electrode-based cochlear implant that formed the rough basis of Second Sights rst bionic eye. In 1998, Second Sight opened with the nancial backing of Mann and Sam Williams, another successful entrepreneur whose company, Williams International, designed and built small, efcient turbofan jet engines. Sam Williams was blind from retinitis pigmentosa, the disease that we are treating, Mech said. He had invested along with Al in Advanced Bionics, which restores hearing for deaf people,
and they were already on the market in the 90s. Sam said to Al, Why cant we do the same for blind people? Mann and Williams werent the only ones who recognized that the technology behind the bionic eye held promise. In 2001, the University of Southern California recruited the two doctors that Greenberg had worked with at Johns Hopkins. There was more to come. Greenberg was still ying back and forth to Baltimore and Johns Hopkins when Steven J. Ryan, president of USCs Doheny Eye Institute, put up the money to move our entire Johns Hopkins team out here to Los Angeles, Greenberg said. It was a big deal, ve people and their families, Greenberg said. The work would not have progressed as fast if that hadnt happened. It was part of how we got a dedicated team focused on this one project. The Argus II has three parts. One part includes a small video camera that sits on sunglasses. Another part is a portable computer, which can be worn on a belt or carried in a purse. The most complicated part is a tiny implant that is placed near the retina
during a two-hour surgical procedure. The implant carries 60 electrodes, up from 16 in the rst version. The computer processes signals from the video camera and wirelessly relays the information back to the implants. The bionic eye system requires an unusual manufacturing process involving highly trained engineers working with microscopes to manually connect each of the 60 electrode arrays. The microscopes range from relatively low power models, normally used for dissections, to high-powered metallurgical scopes, all the way up to scanning needles that can measure at the nanometer level. Almost every step is done under a microscope, Greenberg said. The lines on the retinal implants are only 25 microns, or 1/1,000th of an inch wide. There are additional manufacturing problems when the product you are making involves such small scales. Regular platinum will not work in such small electrodes and would actually dissolve, Greenberg said. Second Sight had to develop a different platinum-based material.

search engine for captioned movies and trailers. The majority of people I know have not gone to the movies in 35 years because the technology wasnt available. This is a game changer. Since introducing its glasses last spring, Sony has sold more than 6,000 pairs to Regal, Carmike Cinemas Inc. and Alamo Drafthouse, among other chains. We see these glasses as a way to ll a need in the deaf community, said Susie Beiersdorf, vice president of digital cinema sales for Sony Electronics.
Its also good business. Exhibitors such as Regal are eager to nd new ways to draw customers at a time when theatrical attendance in the North America has slackened. AMC Theatres and Cinemark USA Inc., the second- and third-largest chains, respectively, offer different closedcaptioning devices that are less expensive. More than 38 million Americans live with some sort of hearing disability, and only 34 percent of them go to a movie theater at least once a year. That compares with 72 percent of Americans overall who went to the movies at least once in the last year, according to industry surveys. Major theater chains have also
faced pressure from the Justice Department and advocacy groups to improve access to their auditoriums. Regal and Cinemark have faced lawsuits in the past from disability rights advocates alleging they were violating the Americans with Disabilities Act. New Jerseys attorney general sued Regal in 2004, demanding the chain install a rearwindow system in which text is reected from an LED screen at the back of the theater. Regal balked, maintaining the systems were unpopular, and the suit was later settled. Smith says Regals actions were not motivated by either the lawsuits or pressure from the Justice Department, which
in 2010 said it was a considering a rule that 50 percent of movie screens offer captioning and video description services. Did litigation force us into this? No, Smith said. We decided well before the litigation what we were going to accomplish, and we did it. In fact, Smiths commitment to the cause sprang from his own experiences raising a deaf child. Smith says his son loved movies as a young boy but was often disappointed when he couldnt join his peers to see the latest release because the lm print was not captioned. He also recalls how awkward Ryan felt watching a movie for the rst time with the help of a rear-window screen.
He was very uncomfortable, Smith said. It became apparent that there had to be a better way to do this. Smith became an advocate for more close-captioned movies. He arranged for periodic movie screenings with students from the Tennessee School for the Deaf at a Regal theater in Knoxville. And when new captioning devices became available, Smith organized meetings with groups including the National Association of the Deaf to solicit their feedback. He also invited his son to join him in theaters to test various devices and glasses. I would come home and say, Were going to the movies to-
night, and he was more than happy to assist me, Smith said. If he said to me he didnt like it, it was a nonstarter. Ryan Smith did like the Sony glasses, but suggested a few improvements after testing an early prototype, including making them lighter, adjusting the nose pad to make them more comfortable and enlarging the size of the captions. I was one of the rst people to test the device out before it was put in Regal theaters across the United States, the younger Smith said. Knowing that my opinion really mattered because I am a deaf customer, I did my best to give my honest opinion. It was one of the coolest things Ive ever done.

They feared cities and other local governments were stuck with high pension costs, exacerbated by low revenue amid the weak economy. But the expected wave turned out to be more like a trickle. Moodys counted four municipal-bond defaults last year among the deals that it rates. Since the recessions start more than five years ago, Moodys has counted an average of 4.6 defaults per year. To be sure, thats higher than the average of 1.3 annual defaults that the market saw from 1970 through 2007, but its not as bad as some feared. Bond mutual fund returns, 12 months

SELL IN MAY An old adage on Wall Street tells investors to Sell in May and go away. Thats because U.S. stocks often hit a soft spot during the summer, and the maxim has held true the last couple years. The effect is even more pronounced with foreign stocks, says Alec Young, global equity strategist for S&P Capital IQ. Since its 1970 inception, the MSCI EAFE index of developed-market stocks has dropped an average of 0.3 percent from May through September, versus an average gain of 1.3 percent from October through April.

The stock of Whole Foods Market changed course this week. After the stock market closed Tuesday, the natural grocer reported its fiscal second-quarter profit rose 20 percent. Management also raised its profit forecast for the full year. Shares shot up $9.39, or 10 percent the next day. Whole Foods also said it will split its stock, two for one, at the end of May. A stock split does not change a companys market value, but it increases the number of shares outstanding. This could be a turning point for the stock which had been one of the worst performers in the Standard &

Yields, mortgage rates climb
Poors index for much of this year. Investors sold the stock in February after the company narrowed its revenue forecast and said earnings growth may slow. Whole Foods struggled when the recession hit and shoppers cut back on their spending. The financial analysts covering the stock are still split firmly between Buy and Hold. Gregory Badishkanian of Citi was among the financial analysts raising his price target on the stock this week, to $108 from $96. But he maintained his Neutral rating, noting that the stock has a priceearnings ratio of 35 based on his earnings projections.

The yield on the 10-year Treasury note jumped last week and at one point reached its highest level in more than six weeks. Higher yields tend to pull up rates on various types of consumer loans, and the average rate on a 30-year fixed mortgage climbed to 3.42 percent last week from 3.35 percent.

Many investors believe in owning all the stocks in the market to stay diversified. But Brian Macauley and Ira Rothberg are more discriminating. They buy only stocks in which they fervently believe, and their Hennessy Focus mutual fund (HFCSX) holds only 20 to 30 stocks at a time. The fund has a five-star rating from Morningstar and has returned an annualized 13 percent over the last decade. Why focus on so few stocks? Macauley: Its very difficult to pick winning stocks, which is why we are very disciplined in those that we choose to own. We think thats whats given us an edge in the past: Hold a few names, hold them for a long time, get to know them very well and be discriminating in what you choose to own. What do you look for? Rothberg: Were looking for four things: a high quality business that earns outsized returns on capital, a large growth opportunity and an excellent management team. And we just dont like to pay very much for those first three ingredients. How do you determine whats a good management team? Are there common threads among the stocks you own? Macauley: They tend to be run by company founders, or the second or third generation. Or run by somebody who has spent the vast majority of their career at the company and has been handed the reins. These people have long-term orientations, and theyre steeped in the culture thats worked for the business, and theyve got the internal credibility to perpetuate culture and make the hard decisions needed to be made for the long term. Your top holding, wireless-tower owner American Tower (AMT), makes up about 9 percent of the total fund. Whats so attractive about it? Rothberg: Its a business where 70 percent of the revenue is domestic and 30 percent is international. If you look here at the United States, in the last two years smartphone penetration has gone from 20 percent to 60 percent, and mobile data demand is up fivefold. If we look at some of the forecasts for the next five years, we think data demand can be up another tenfold from here, and that will result in wireless carriers Verizon and AT&T having to put up more radio equipment, lease more space on these towers, which will result in more revenue for American Tower. If youre so bullish on wireless data demand, why not just buy Verizon or AT&T? Rothberg: We like picks-and-shovels businesses. They sell the picks and shovels to the gold miners, so its not really a bet on which gold miner is going to strike it rich. American Tower has great assets. No one is going to build a tower next to the incumbent tower, because they have 10-year contracts where theyve essentially already locked up all the potential customers for that tower.

Few companies have felt the pinch of surging Stock commodity costs as sharply as food producScreener ers the last few years. When the price of corn surged 52 percent in 2010, Kellogg (K) felt it in its production of corn flakes. Last year, the price of wheat jumped 19 percent, and soybeans climbed 17 percent. But commodity price pressures are easing now that increased plantings by farmers have raised expectations for healthier supplies. Corns price fell 7 percent in the first four months of 2013. The price of soybeans was 3 percent

lower on Wednesday than it was a year earlier. This screen shows stocks that Citi financial analyst David Driscoll says could be big beneficiaries of falling grain prices. Theyre packaged foods companies, for which corn, soy and wheat make up about 15 percent of total costs. To be sure, Mother Nature will need to cooperate for agricultural commodity prices to fall. A drought or otherwise poor growing conditions would raise worries about supplies and send prices higher yet again.

Ask the Fool

Should I save or spend money to help the economy? E.A., Holden, Mass. The economy does benefit when spending rises, as the demand for products and services increases, helping companies prosper and grow. But it can also benefit from increased national savings, because more money in banks means more money is available to be loaned out. So focus on taking care of yourself instead of worrying about the nation. Think of your retirement savings and investments, and be sure you have three to 12 months worth of living expenses saved in an emergency fund, too. *** I just opened a brokerage account, and I plan to use an auto-investment feature to regularly invest in an S&P 500 index fund. Should I wait until the market hits bottom before I start? C.R., Toledo, Ohio No, because we can discern the markets bottom only after some time has passed. Thus, you might be waiting on the sidelines when the market begins recovering and that can cost you. On Oct. 13, 2008, for example, the S&P 500 surged about 100 points, or more than 10 percent. Those who would have wanted that gain but were waiting lost out. If youre nervous about where the market is headed, making regular investments over time can be effective. (Do so with equal sums, and youre dollar-cost averaging.) That way youll get shares when theyre both lower priced and higher priced, and you wont have to keep guessing about the markets direction. Dont fret too much about occasional losses what matters is that you choose good investments and that youre focused on long-term performance. For most people, inexpensive broad-market index funds such as an S&P 500 one are smart choices.

Options Basics
Imagine that you want to invest in the Free Range Onion Company (ticker: BULBZ). You can simply buy some shares or you might use options. There are two main types of options: calls and puts. Buying a call gives you the right to buy a set number of shares, at a set price, within a certain period of time (typically a few months). Puts give you the right to sell shares. If BULBZ is selling for $50 per share, you might buy August $55 call options for it. Lets say you pay $6 each ($600 total) for call options to buy 100 shares of BULBZ at $55 apiece. If, just before your options expire, BULBZ is selling for $65 per share, you can exercise your options and buy 100 shares for $5,500. Then you can keep them or sell them at their current price, for $6,500. Your profit may seem to be $1,000, but you paid $600 for the options, so its really $400, less commissions and taxes.
Options are risky. If BULBZ stays at $55 or falls, your $600 would be entirely lost. You have essentially bet that the stock will top $61 per share $55 plus $6 by August. Options are enticing because of the leverage they offer. With $1,000, you can only buy 20 shares of a $50 stock. Alternatively, that $1,000 could buy many options tied to hundreds of shares of stock. With options, if things dont go your way in a short time frame, the options will expire worthless. Most options expire unexercised and worthless. If youre sure that BULBZ stock will rise, youre probably best off buying its stock. Then, if it doesnt behave as you expected in the near term, you can either sell the shares or hang on patiently. Options are not for beginning investors, and many advanced investors steer clear, too. Still, they can make sense in some situations. There are also long-term LEAPS options that you might want to investigate. Learn more at cboe.com/LearnCenter and fool.com/investing/options/optionsa-foolish-introduction.aspx.

E Is Not for Ebola

Some years ago, I bought 100 shares of a company after analyzing its earnings and other financial data. It rose quickly and I bought more shares. Later, upon returning from a vacation, I saw that it had fallen sharply. I later learned that the company had overstated its earnings, and discovered that the stocks ticker symbol had an E appended to it. Is that for extinct, eliminated, exit or Ebola? W.Z., Hartford, Conn. The Fool Responds: An E is a red flag, but not necessarily an Ebola-level emergency. When a company listed on the Nasdaq stock market is delinquent in filing one or more required reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), it gets an E tacked to the end of its symbol. In such cases, dig deeper to get a sense of whether theres a temporary or permanent problem. A bigger red flag is a Q suffix, which means the company is involved in bankruptcy proceedings. This is almost always very bad news for investors, since companies emerging from bankruptcy protection have typically been reorganized, with their previous stock shares essentially canceled and worthless.

Money-Making Robots
If youre in the market for a higher-risk, higher-possible-gain stock, consider Intuitive Surgical (Nasdaq: ISRG), which makes robotic surgical equipment, permitting doctors to perform a variety of procedures in less-invasive ways. Its stock has averaged annual gains of more than 40 percent over the past decade, but has slid more than 15 percent over the past year. The drop is partly due to questions being raised about its machines efficacy via some lawsuits and an FDA investigation. Still, some see the companys potential outweighing its risks. The potential is great, as more hospitals buy robots and then keep buying accessories and supplies needed for each procedure, along with service contracts for the machines. Thats welcome, repeating revenue, on top of a typical sales price of more than a million dollars apiece for Intuitives da Vinci robots. Meanwhile, the number of procedures performed increased by 18 percent last quarter, over year-ago levels, and revenue and earnings have been growing by more than 20 percent annually, on average, over the past five years. Intuitive Surgical can also grow through new procedures such as gallbladder removals, and also via international sales. Its stock seems reasonably or attractively priced, too, given its growth rates. (The Motley Fools newsletter services have recommended shares of Intuitive Surgical.)

OFFICE COACH
Carefully deect sales pitch from boss

Q: The head of our department has been pressuring employees to purchase products from her husband, who recently began selling diet supplements through a multilevel marketing company. When I was invited to a party at their home to hear a sales pitch, I politely declined. But she still keeps trying to convince me to buy the products. I feel that its wrong for someone in a position of power to put this kind of pressure on employees. Although I have no intention of using these questionable supplements, I dont know how to refuse my boss without getting in trouble. Should I tell her how I feel or just complain to human resources? A: Your bosss self-serving behavior is both unethical and unprofessional. No manager should ever try to sell anything to employees, including rafe tickets and Girl Scout cookies. The reason is simple: People fear saying no to the person who controls their performance appraisals and work assignments. Admonishing the department head might damage your career, so a safer alternative is to simply keep repeating, Thanks for asking, but Im really not interested. Always deliver this response with a friendly smile, and never question the merits of the product. After awhile, she will turn her attention to more promising prospects. A trip to human resources is only advisable if others share your concerns and agree to accompany you. When complaining about the boss, going with a group is much less risky than going alone. Q: My son told me that hes being harassed at work because he looks Middle Eastern. Co-workers keep saying that he might be a terrorist or is related to Osama bin Laden. In fact, we are not even from the Middle East. I am Hispanic, my husband is German, and our son is an American citizen. My son is very upset and wants to contact the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. I think we should try to solve the problem before taking such a drastic step, so I offered to call the owner and talk to him about this harassment. Whats your opinion? A: First of all, your sons mistreatment is inexcusable. Even if those bigoted coworkers said they were joking, there is absolutely nothing funny about calling someone a terrorist. Nevertheless, this is one of those tricky situations where the general principle and the specic case must be considered separately. Your son has every right to

complain to the EEOC, and his desire to do so is certainly justied. At the same time, however, he needs to understand that a discrimination investigation will not make his life easier at work. In fact, it will probably make things more difcult. That may not be fair, but its reality. Assuming that the owner is unaware of the harassment, giving him a chance to address the issue might be a better rst step. But your son should be the one to initiate this discussion. Unless he is still in high school, a call from his mother could subject him to a completely different type of ridicule.

Running from life futile, because it always catches up

BreNda heisT wanted to run away from life. Naturally, she went to key West, Fla. The rst time i was down there, i saw a highway sign that, for me, perfectly captured the meaning of that place. North, it said, with an arrow pointing the way. No south, you understand. Just the one option: North. Not that i didnt know where i was before i saw that, but it struck me as a visceral manifestation of what the little island represents. as the southernmost dot of inhabited land in the continental United states, it is the nations designated refuge for troubled or nonconformist souls. You end up there because running any farther (by land, at least) is a geographic impossibility. it is, literally, the end of the road. so the news that heist, the central Pennsylvania mother who disappeared 11 years ago, ed there, feels almost too on the nose. Of course she went to key West. Of course she did. heists odd odyssey began in 2002 in the little town of lititz. she was going through a divorce and had just been turned down for housing assistance when three strangers found her crying in a park and invited her to hitchhike with them. she said yes. and with that, she disappeared, leaving behind a husband and two children, until last week when she walked into the sheriffs ofce in key largo and told deputies she was a missing person. The 11 years in between are a confusing pastiche of aliases, petty crime, panhandling, trailer parks, common law marriage, sleeping under bridges, and

You can read the cost of heists journey by gazing on the before and after pictures, the former showing a middle age mom wearing lipstick and a posed smile and the latter showing a gaunt, hollow-eyed wraith with stringy blond hair and no eyebrows. it requires an effort of will to realize that they are the same woman. But the cost of heists escape is not just seen on her face. it is also seen in the ruins of her relationships. ex-husband, lee, who lived awhile under suspicion of murdering her and who may be tapped to repay the reported $100,000 payout on her life insurance policy (she was legally declared dead a few years back), has said he sees no purpose in talking with her. her now adult daughter Morgan posted on Twitter that she hopes her mother rots in hell. Who can blame them? They are more than entitled. That said, there is something faintly recognizable in Brenda heists story. Not condonable, perhaps not even forgivable, but, yes, recognizable. Who among us, after all, has never daydreamed about running away from life? For the majority of us, it never becomes more than that, but it is there, just the same. For all its joys and graces, life is not an easy proposition. sometimes, it is a downright unhappy one. One contends with the big challenges like cancer and divorce, yes.
COMMENTARY
You can read the cost of Heists journey by gazing on the before and after pictures, the former showing a middle age mom wearing lipstick and a posed smile and the latter showing a gaunt, hollow-eyed wraith with stringy blond hair and no eyebrows. It requires an effort of will to realize that they are the same woman.
But there are also the small ones kids, and spouses and taxes and utility bills and setbacks and deadlines and waiting in line at the dMV that are the true meat of daily existence. Well probably never know she may not truly know if any of this is what caused heist to break. all we know is that something did and when it did, when she wound up weeping in that park, she responded by reaching out for the daydream. There is something pathetic about that. something instructive, too. see, you can run to key West. You can sail down to Tolhuin, a tiny village near the tip of south america. You can even trek across antarctica and come up the other side of the globe. doesnt matter. Because as Brenda heists bill for damages comes due, one thing about running away from life seems painfully clear. life always catches up.

WiTh The passing of my mother earlier this year, i took time to pen some of the more salient thoughts and memories i have of her, and i believe they exemplify the importance of family and what, at the end of the day, we take with us from our family interactions. More than anything, my Mother stood as a symbol of the changing america: a working mother, one with shared responsibility of raising children and working outside of the home, at a time when working mothers were not so common. in fact, i dont recall a time when my mother was not employed. even after retirement and because of her love of children, she worked as a foster grandparent for 11 years. Throughout it all, she was ercely proud of her two sons, and she was committed to our well-being. This idea of boasting about her children simply came natural to her as a mother. she often would say to me if you cant be proud of yourself, no one else will be. and lets face it, there were times when i challenged her perspective. in the very early years of my childhood, my parents worked opposite shifts. and i recall being home with my mother during the day, when my father was working and my brother was in school. i recall that on occasion when she wasnt teaching me my aBCs or how to read, she would put me

to work, painting the concrete steps to our back porch. My paint consisted of a coffee can lled with water, and my brush was one that my parents had saved perhaps long past its intended survival. i would sit for what seemed like hours painting and repainting the steps while my mother folded laundry, cleaned the house, or simply sat watching me with that smile so often displayed when she looked at her children. she was relentless in her commitment to our well-being. i recall when my brother was diagnosed terminally ill with cancer at the age of 24 years. i was living in an apartment and my mother implored me to move back home, telling me how important it was for our family to be together through the impending struggle. When we rst got the news, i was sure my mother would fall apart. learning that your child may die is a burden so overwhelming that many are never able to recover. Pearl, however, surprised me. she became the driving force of optimism, accompanying my brother to every follow-up doctor visit, every radiation treatment, and every trip to hershey Medical Center for chemotherapy. While there are many factors involved in my brothers survival of his diagnosis, without question, my mothers persistence
More than anything, my Mother stood as a symbol of the changing America: a working mother, one with shared responsibility of raising children and working outside of the home, at a time when working mothers were not so common.
in making sure her children would be okay, was one of them. The will of Moses had nothing over the will of Pearl. That was my mother, Pearl. she gave me the foundation of right and wrong, the ability to read, a strong work ethic, and through example taught me and my childhood friends at a young age that working mothers are good mothers, contrary to common sentiment of the 1950s and early 1960s. i share these sentiments and reections with you as a living example of the work we do at Family service association, the values of our practice, and the impact of family on us individually and communally.

Its an ugly truth, but sometimes torture works

John Kenneth Galbraith once observed that the enemy of the conventional wisdom is not ideas but the march of events. And events have nally caught up with the oft-repeated claim that torture doesnt work and that it especially didnt work in tracking down osama bin Laden. the more journalists probe into the hunt that ended in bin Ladens death at the hands of a navy SeAL team a year ago, the more apparent it is that the rst clues leading to his Pakistan hideout were beaten and bullied out of captured al-Qaida members. two books published last year Peter L. Bergens Manhunt and Mark Bowdens the Finish were the rst to suggest that the trail to bin Laden began with information obtained with what the CIA euphemistically refers to as enhanced interrogation techniques. And now a tV documentary based on Manhunt, which includes on-the-record interviews with several members of the CIA team that hunted bin Laden, is airing on hBo. the basic tale is well-known: hiding away from surveillance in a Pakistani compound that had neither telephone nor Internet service, bin Laden was tracked down only after the CIA identied and followed a courier known as Ahmed the Kuwaiti, who carried his messages to and from al-Qaida. the question has always been, where did the CIA learn the identity of that courier? And the answer, we now know, is from victims of some of the most brutal interrogations of the CIA and its allies: The first mention of Ahmed the Kuwaiti came from a young al-Qaida member held at Guantanamo named Mohamedou ould Slahi. Slahi, before giving up the name, was tortured so grievously beat-

en, deprived of sleep, exposed to extreme heat and cold, and threatened with the arrest of his mother that the U.S. Marine colonel assigned to prosecute his case before a military commission quit. Slahi didnt offer much more about Ahmed the Kuwaiti except that he existed. (or had Slahi thought he was dead.) But the next Guantanamo prisoner to talk offered much more: that Ahmed was a member of bin Ladens inner circle and sometimes functioned as his courier. that disclosure came after the prisoner, al-Qaida militant Mohammed al-Qahtani, was interrogated 20 hours a day for 48 straight days, subjected to a mock execution, forced to perform dog tricks, drugged and given enemas until he hallucinated. his treatment was so brutal that the Pentagon decided it couldnt prosecute him, even though he was scheduled to be one of the hijackers on Sept. 11. Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the principal architect of the Sept. 11 attacks, also confessed to knowing Ahmed the Kuwaiti at some point during the 183 waterboardings given him by U.S. interrogators. But Mohammed insisted that Ahmed was an unimportant member of al-Qaida and had left the group years before. the CIA knew he was lying by that time, Ahmed the Kuwaitis senior status in al-Qaida had been widely conrmed but found the attempted deceit even more interesting than the truth. they must be getting close to something important, the CIA trackers concluded. Ahmed the Kuwaitis real name Ibrahim Saeed Ahmed was nally supplied in 2004 by a bin Laden aide caught slipping into Kurdish territory with bomb-making documents. In the tV documentary Manhunt, one of the CIAs
trackers is asked what the Kurds did to make the aide, hassan Ghul, talk. She just offers a sly smile that slowly broadens in a Cheshire-cat grin. once the CIA had Ahmed the Kuwaitis real name, it was able to zero in on his cellphone, his vehicle and the Pakistani compound where he lived with a tall, mostly unseen man who would eventually prove to be bin Laden a process that took an additional seven years. torture may not have led U.S. forces right to bin Ladens front door, but it surely pointed the way to the rst steps. Many Americans imagine torture as a kind of replay of some old drive-in movie where a fat redneck sheriff sticks a gun in a long-haired kids ear and shouts, Admit it! Admit it! And sometimes that is no doubt accurate. Ive certainly never been able to gure out what the soldiers at Abu Ghraib hoped to learn from their random torment of luckless peasants. But in the world of intelligence, interrogations are aimed at eliciting information rather than confessions of guilt. the bits of data, once veried, are pieced together with others electronic intercepts, credit card receipts, surveillance reports into a mosaic that reveals a bigger, hidden, picture. Does the fact that torture helped us nd bin Laden mean that its just one more tool to pack into our bags? not at all. there are plenty of good arguments against the use of torture. employed regularly, its bound to claim some innocent victims. And it surely is not good for either the soul of the person doing the torturing or those in whose name he does it. But these are moral questions. As long as we pretend that the question of torture is a utilitarian one that it doesnt work we will never confront its morality.

Celebrate, nominate the hero in your life E

very day there are heroes among us. A grandmother who saves a toddler from choking. A Good Samaritan who rushes into a burning home and brings a neighbor to safety. An animal lover who nds an abused pet and rescues it. A nurse or a health care aide who acts quickly to resuscitate someone. In our local communities, everyday people perform extraordinary life saving acts. Many of these people go unrecognized for their courageous acts. the Wyoming Valley Chapter of the American Red Cross needs your help in identifying these heroic acts and the people who make them happen. Where are the heroes in Luzerne County? the American Red Cross wants to honor you, the everyday hero. heroes will be celebrated and recognized on June 12th at the east Mountain Inn at a lovely breakfast

ox news did an hour long investigative piece on the Kermit Gosnell case See no evil with Brett Baier. I suggest all abortion supporters get a copy so they can actually see the horrors that occurred at Gosnells clinic. Recently Lila Rose from Live Action released undercover videos proving that infanticide is happening at clinics across the country. Babies born alive not being given medical care or actually killed in the name of choice. this is the underbelly of the abortion industry in Sherry N. Williams America today. I hope that people are nally Executive, Wyoming Valley Chapter of the American Red Cross taking off the blinders and see-
Coverage reveals horrors at clinic F
ing that they were handed a bill of goods when they were told that abortion only eliminates a blob of tissue. And trying to say that banning abortions would spawn more Kermit Gosnells in the future is false. Its not in the future, were already there. today all life is devalued and this can easily be traced back to Jan. 22, 1973, when the slaughter of the innocents became the law of the land.
It takes a village to set a world record O
ing of surveyors Bill Bolton and Jess Kronenwetter from Borton Lawson engineering, along with Dotty Martin, editor for the Dallas Post. Bill and Jess served as our ofcial measurers and counters while Dotty served as our ofcial witness. All three individuals were necessary for our record attempt, and none of them knew exactly what they were getting into prior to accepting our invitation! Barbara Yanchek First, Bill and Jess measured Jermyn 2,678 feet of bracelets. they had a very organized system in place and it only took about an hour. however, the best (or worst) was yet to come. At about 9:30 a.m., they started to n Wednesday, May 1, Ross count the bracelets, not knowelementary held a Guinness ing the exact count, but having World Records event where we a good idea there were at least broke the record for the most friendship bracelets assembled. 7, 400. one by one they started. Dotty unrolled the dowel that Students, faculty and staff asthe bracelets were wrapped sembled a record-breaking 7,507 on, Bill counted out loud, and friendship bracelets measuring Jess kept count on a manual 2,678 feet. It was quite a counting device. It was so feat and a task that took seven monotonous that Bill and Jess months to accomplish. consistently had to switch roles the one area that impacted me the most was the volunteer- to keep their sanity. During this time, the sun grew hotter, their
skin became sunburned, their stomachs growled and their focus became harder to maintain with each passing minute. Along the way, there were a lot of jokes and funny moments there had to be or they wouldnt have been able to keep their sanity. A long three and a half hours later, the last number was nally called 7,507 record breaking bracelets were counted and a loud cheer was immediately heard throughout the grounds. You could hear the relief in Jesss voice when that last bracelet was counted and see the ear to ear smile on Dottys face. I would like to publicly say that I am so fortunate that I had the opportunity to meet Bill Bolton, Jess Kronenwetter, and Dotty Martin. Strangers to us at rst, they played a very critical role in our attempt and are now individuals we would denitely call friends. thank you for helping our school accomplish our goal and doing it with so much professionalism and pride!

Geisinger salutes hospital employees T
wo national observances are being held in May to recognize the important contributions of healthcare professionals to the health and well-being of patients National Nurses Week (May 6-12), and National Hospital Week (May 12-18). Strength, commitment and education are hallmarks of the national theme for Nurses Week in 2013 Delivering Quality & Innovation in Patient Care focusing on nurses dedication to saving lives through innovative treatments and improvements in quality and patient safety. Nurses make the commitment every day to building an even more meaningful nursing profession, addressing the complexities of patient care, reshaping the work environment, and inuencing broader health policies to benet patients. Delivering Quality & Innovation in Patient Care is exemplied by Geisinger nurses throughout northeastern Pennsylvania. Geisinger nurses provide world-class care to thousands of patients dailywhether its the nurse who devotes time and energy teaching others to live healthier lives or the nurse who holds a patients hand, making sure that compassion and dignity are an integral part of the medical treatment of every patient. And it represents the profound way that Geisinger nurses affect the lives of many people through clinical research and advancements in technology. National Hospital Week provides an opportunity to commemorate the importance of all the men and women who work in our hospitals. A hospital is more than a place where people go to heal, it is an important part of the community that fosters health and represents hope. From providing treatment and comfort to the sick, to welcoming new life into the world, hospital employees are essential to a healthy and thriving community. People in Northeastern Pennsylvania and surrounding areas can enjoy the advantage of having Geisinger in their community, where extraordinary medical professionals, support staff and world-class facilities
deliver healing treatment and compassionate care around the clock. As we celebrate National Nurses Week and National Hospital Week, Geisinger salutes our nurses and hospital staff members for their talents, professional accomplishments and dedication to your health and peace of mind. Please take time in the next few weeks to thank a nurse and a hospital employee for his or her extraordinary work.

University students make noble effort T

his is in response to a letter to the editor from Mark Bielinski concerning the marker chain in which students at Misericordia University took part. My name is Catie Becker and I am the President of the Student Government Association at Misericordia, and one of the organizers for the marker chain event. I am writing on behalf of
Lissa Bryan-Smith Chief Administrative Ofcer Geisinger Regional Ambulatory Campus John J. Buckley, FACHE Chief Administrative Ofcer Geisinger Northeast Mary Gildea, RN, BSN Vice President of Nursing Geisinger Wyoming Valley Margaret Hennelly-Bergin, RN,
those students who the writer claimed to be wasting their money, time and effort in attempting to set a Guiness World Record. I am not writing to argue with Mr. Bielinski. Rather, I want to help him understand exactly what we did and why we did it. First, we were hoping to connect a minimum of 1, 000 markers, not the 500 the writer originally claimed. Second, all of the markers connected were real markers, though I cannot fathom why that makes a difference. These numbers and constraints were set by Guinness as well as the space and funding available, since we did not, in fact, use any grant money as
was assumed. Additionally, we chose to do this event because it was something fun, something different and something that could bring people together. Misericordia is very much a community-based campus and to set this record we would need a community helping us. Further, this project will continue to benet the community because we are donating the markers to area schools, libraries, and after school programs that are in need. I would also like to say that every member of SGA was able to use their overly expensive and totally useless degrees to make this event happen. We took the communication, writing, and professional skills learned in class and ap-
plied them to a realistic setting. In order to accomplish this task we had to contact Guinness, the surveyor, and local businesses all of which required a sense of professionalism that many students our age, and those older than us, are not capable of. Im very sorry that Mr. Bielinski sees our education, and our project, as having no value, but it is something that took much more time, effort, and planning than one might imagine. By the way, we were able to accomplish our goal by connecting 1,432 markers with the help of nearly 50 people. Im sorry Mr. Bielinski missed it.

At Geisinger, we are dedicated to successful kidney transplants. Were certified by the United Network for Organ Sharing, and in turn, our patients, even young patients, have access to a nationwide network of organ donors and a living donation program.
